=e-.-i of the State Teachers' Association.

It iniimarc-T that the teachers from tin metropolitan city have given toe cue to its lachrymose effusion. It is very probable, as iL intimates, that the as.-ociutio was not a fineness. But -ince the casual ob erver even could detect that the In lianapolis teachers vo ed solid almost every time—and always carried their point*- even to the complete abnegation of the progranfrue of tiie Executive Coin mii'.ee, very often—it in extreme bad taste for either they or their friends to raise, a dti-r to hide a failure. There are

men and times that can appropriately ak of the public and the /ircss the charily their silence, and this seema emphatically t- be a ca-e in hand. Were wedi-posed to recriminate, we could make up a lon2 roll of accusations against the accusers— bit! we will none of tin-', and were it not that the editorial referred to had unrui»'akable ear mark :, which peered tliroe the lion's hide while here, we would say e.•••II less than we shall.

A' totheprii^ran'ine of the Association neithor the teachers or the citizens of our city had a word to say—and we repeat, it ill bee 'ines tho.-c who r(fu-eii to have the .'-.--oei-ition in their own cttv—to tun fault with iho who were never consulted as to time, place or o.'der of exercises I• this foifiice--The dentine! lias been in vd upon by some sore head, who. In se he could not wholly run the Teachers' A^-ociation has concluded tc plav the appro,.: :ate role of '"dog in tlu inang-.-r."

As. to the hospitality of the citizens of Torre Haute—one newspaper f-quib can not. damage its reputation. The score and hundreds of the teacher? of Indiana who have shared the hospitality o! our citizens at other meetings of the State Association and tn-'.itu.es. will vindicate our fair fa sue, and silence the //.v»ir.' of tin fugleman of the SrntincL During the .-esidon of the laic Association it was announced that there were quite a number more of fice home- open more than these were touchers de-inng to accept the same.

As to the ilitig a: the entire pres ol tl'.is city, it is only proper tc add that so far as \his paper is coueerncd, we publi.-h, so far as .ir futilities permit, such matter as we deem of nio-t interest to out aders ami then, a vet baiim report oi lhe recent S.ate eachers' Association and e-'pc-ciallv its««.vi7 workings, njigl no! rtjipear well in print.

adjou'rnment. The case of J. C.Talbot! f.». St. Agnes Hall r'.. a/., was called and tried by a jury, which case consumed the entire day, in hearing the evidence, and r.nment of the Hon. Wm. 5I.uk Th^ court then adjourned until nine o'clock Tuesday morning, when the case will be re.-upjed.

The Mayor's Court, Hon. G. F. Cooker Iy pre.-iding, was in session all day and transacted the following business:

The irrcp:e-ible Maggie Dean was arrested Saturday morning by Officer Hayward, charged with 'he larceny of three dollars and a half in money from one William Aiken. In de fault of bail she now abideth in tlu tombs, awaiting the action of the grand jury. The stolen money was discovered in her chignon.

A countryman was arrested hy OQit'ir Ynndever for hitching his horse to a trte before Squire Dennehies' office and taken before HUIolior. who fined and co.-ted him in the sum of $5, which he paid. He thinks lie will bring a tree from the country with him to tic to when he again 'ines to ihe city.

A railroader was tound reposingon the steps of the Normal School building, in a blissfully drunken state yesterday morning, bv Janitor Amos Robinson, who ac co ted him with "What aie you doing here?'' The interrogated roused from hidrunken lethargy, stated vacant iy around aud exclaimed: "1 have been dreaming that I am nephew of Prof. Olcott, and have as much' right here as any one." Hie Janitor didn't it a", he did and l'.dgcd him in jail on a charge of drunkenness. •John JJurke was arrested by officer Clarv, Saturday night, for celebtatitig some of his militaiy achievements, in a way the law does not sanction. Instead oi "sweai ing oil"' John was enjoying a boisterous drunk. He was lodged in jail, but was released when he sobered down.

A young man who-e name we con Id not loam, was arrested and jailed by officer Yandever yesieiday, for drunkenness and yelling like a Commanche Indian on the streets.

TIIK WI:I:K OF P«AYI wiil be observed in this city in the several churche--a= i'dlows: oil Monday in Ashnry Chapel Kev. S. M. Stinwon to pre-ide Tuesday in the Second Presbyterian Church, Rev. J. E.

The meeting will be open precisely at nine o'clock, A. M. and close at ten A. SI. each day.

The following if the programme for the Week of Prayer, as officially announced bv the Committee of the Evangelical Alliance:

Sunday. Jan. 1.—Sermons—Subject: Inspiration of Holy Scripture, its Sufficiency and Sole Authority for Religious Faith and Practice.

Monday, '1—Prayer: Grateful review of the past, calling for rene-.ved confidence -.ind for increased devotedncs.- hmuilia ion for the worblliness of the Church, oid our national sins provoking: divine judgment. 7Vsi/'d/. "—Praver: Fo- nation*: for kings and all others in authority for sol liers and t-ailois: for all who have suffer••d in recent wars for the blessings of 'ipace, and thai God would graciously brine- good out of recent calamities.

Wednesday, •!. —Prayer: For the cb.il Iren of Christian parents for a blessing home innuoive ar.d on all 1 eachers for earlv dedication ioGnd and for more 'nbnrers in Christ's service.

Thursday, 5.—Prayer: For the baptism the Holy Spirt on all who

call 'hemselves Christians: for the increase charity, and of affectionate communion ml cooperation among till in even land who love the Lord Jesus Christ in r-incer-itv.

Friday, fi.— Praver: For the circulation the word of God for the increase of faithful embassadors for Christ for an end religion* persecution and for the removal of till hindrances to the spread of the Gospel.

S.tfurdiy, 7 —Prayer: For Christian mission"- for the conversion of the .Tews the better observance of the Lord'* Dav for a blessing on Christian literature, and for the glorious appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ."

Sunday, 8—Sermons—Subject: Faith. Hope, anil Live—essential witnesses for the truth.

Ne«' YtHit'.-i At.i.s will be in order to-day. Originally this custom v-as intended as a friendly interchange of civilities and good wishes at the commence ment of the year, but modern innovations too often convert it into an excuse for getiing drunk respectably, and a reform in thii regard is loudly called for. Ladies of Torre Haute, we ask that on this day you do not convert your fine residences into free bars, where young men may become drunk at the expense of their entertainers. Young men of this city have sufficient temptations already, without the intoxicating cup being presented by woman's hand.

It is a serio ts question whether it would not be a benefit to all concerned if the custom of New Year's calls was suspended for a time, until wo could get back to the style of the good "old times." Such a suspension, however, would he a sore grievance to a class of young men who are pisse-vcd with boundless brass and an unlimited capacity for wine, and who take advantage of the custom to force

themselves into houses which would be firmly closed again=t them on ordinary occasions. This evil does not exist in this city to so great an extent as in some of the larger cities, but it is growing.

THE authors of the several addressft circulated by to day, «o far as we have been able to learn, are the following:

a part of E.\ pints*. Thomas B. Long Journal, Miss and to be Emma Rupe Mail, Cyrus N. Walls Banner. A. Fabric )?. It i= proper to

add, for the credit of both authors, «h*t

The carriers' offeiing will he found one of the most attractive that has ever issu i'rom the presses of this city—not nttrac tive in glaring colored inks, for this wr-s impossible, owing to the fact that the manuscript was not all in the hands of the compositor until Saturday morning— but attractive on account of the poetry and rhyme eo neatly printer? thereon The Carriers' add ess is from the -n of Judge T. I. Lot g, and needs no recommendation froin our pencil. Supplemental thereto our "printer devil sends, greeting in some fix hundred lines of verse, in which local events of the past car are treated in stvle .piquant and -ptcy, peculiar to— the devil.

THE hti.-tian Church was literally packed to its utmost capacity faturnay "veiling, with children and ''grown up folks" to pariicipaie in and witness the

present and participated in the exercises arid after the distribution of all the presents, made the children a very in•cresting and instructive little speech, 'elling them that the way to be good men and women was to be good boys and g'r s. The entertainment was one thai did honor to those who instituted and carricd the enterp i.-e so successfully through.
