A-

THE Grand Jury yesterday was considering the question of the coal-dealera conl-stealera. #BUHOLARSand sneak thieves are plying their vocation with much energy in this city at present.

SOME thief, or '"dead beat," stole two saddles and bridles from Col- Thompson's stable, on Tuesday evening.

SEVERAL members of the Legislature came up on the E. & C. Railroad yesterdav, and passed on to the Capital City-

THE Criminal Court was engaged yesterday in a rape case, in which three men 'named Browder, York and Kendrick figure in no enviable light.

THE masquerade ball given by Cuqua Orchestra at Beach's Hail on Monday night, was one of the largest ever held i« this city—over two hundred couple* being admitted.

QUITE a delegation of citizens—Republicans and Democrats went over to Indianapolis last evening, to witness the organization of the first Democratic Legislature since 1862.

POSTAGE. The amount of postage stamps sold at the Post Office in this city, during the year 1870, is 12,273 60 Stamped envelopes, 1,651.60 making a total of $13,925.20, and an average monthly sale of $1,160.43J.

RUNAWAY.—Dan. Miller's mules ran away yesterday morning, making a very bad distribution of sundry packages put up for customers. The mules, after a good run, returned to their starting place, without damage to wagon or harness.

THE whisky now poured down men's throats is "fearfully and wonderfully made." Over in our neighbor town of Effingham, the other day, a man got on a spree the whisky he drank set him to vomiting, and he vomited himself to death before relief could be given him.

THE BOYAT. JAPANESE—On to-mor-row evening Prince Satsuma's Royal Japanese Troupe makes its first appearance at the Opera House. The press, everywhere, speak in the most flattering terms of the performances of these wonderful jugglers and acrobats. Secure your seats at B. G. Cox & Go's. No extra charge for reserved seats.

"MAYOR'S COURT.—Prof. Emery Patridge and one "dead beat" drunk made up the business for the city court yesterday. The latter was sent to jail in default of the payment of fine and costs— amounting to $8. Emery gave security for the payment of a fine and costsamounting to $7, assessed for abusing hi

wife.

DANCING ACADEMY.—Because Mr. A. Da Mond is a very clever gentle man, we are pleased to learn that he is meeting with much success in the orga nization of his dancing classes. He re quests us to ask parents who intend that he should give their children instruc tion to send the same to Beach's Hall on Friday or Saturday afternoon of this week.

HOGS.—The arrivals being compara tively quite light, none of the pork houses except Mr. Early's are fully occupied At his establishment tins week will pro bably terminate the active season, though some hogs are expected to arrive during next week. As far as we can ascertain the entire packing to this dale is about 29,000 head. Prices yesterday, 6.75 for dressed, and 5.60 to 5.75 for live.

ATTEMPTED ESCAPE.—Yesterday morn ing George W. Jackson, in jail on charge of stealing a couple of hogs from a farmer in Riley township, made an unsuccessful attempt to escape from jail. He ex changed clothing with a man placed in jail during the night for drunkenness and yesterday msrning was led out with the other city prisoners by Officer Wolfe On getting outside the building he broke away and started on a sharp run, but, after a lively chase,was overhauled by Offi cers Robinson and Erney, and put back jail.

GOLD FISH.—Mr. Fred. Woodbridge has recently brought to this city a choice lot of gold fish, glass globes for the same, aquar iums, shells, &c. The sale of these articles is something new in this city, and we are pleased to see that he is meeting with a lively demand for the same. As an ornament for the house they are quite handsome and exceedingly interesting. Call at Mr. Woodbridge's establishment, under the Prairie City Bank and see the bright little fish sporting in their native element, enclosed in the beautiful glass globes and the still more

elegant aquarium*,

POSTMASTER NASBY lectured at Terre Haute last night.—IndianapolisJournal. That's news down this way. This thing of writing up items in advance, often illustrates the uncertainty of human affairs, as George Harding once learned upon writing a slashing criticism of some poor fellow's Hamlet. Fancy his mortification and the astonishment of his theatre-going readers the next morning when it was ascertained that from some cause Hamlet was not played, another play being substituted.

PAUL IS. DCCHAILLU,thc African explo rer, lecturer on "Explorations in Equato rial Africa," and the "Land of the Goril la Chimpanzee and Orang Outang," will lecture in the Opera House, Monday, January 16th.

DELINQUENT county tax-payers were published in the WEEKI.Y EXPRESS yes

Mr. DuChallu's lectures are marked by humorous vivacity and thrilling in terest. Among hundreds ol testimonials we select the following

Strikingly attractive and wonderful as are his discriptions, they all carry in themselves an impress of substantial truthfulness-SirRoderick Murchison, President of the English Geographical Society

We must go back to the voyages of La Perouse and Captain Cook, and almost to the days of wonder which followed the track of Columbus, for novelties of equal significance to the age o! their discovery. DuChaillu struck into the very spine of Africa, and lifted the veil of the torrid zone from its rivers, swamps and forests.—London Times.

His adventures, with natives and gor rillas, were told with a dry humor which frequently crea'ed a hearty laugh.—Boston Daily Advertiser.

THE GIFTOFSONG.—It being definitely settled that Nilsson is to sing at the Opera Hall on the evening of the 17th, the following notice of the great artist, copied from the Chicago Advance, assumes a lc cal interest:

Christiana Niisson is one of God's gifts to the world. Native genius and the highest art combine to make her the present queen of song. Born in 1B43, in a small Sweedish hamlet, of peasant parents, the at first gathered wood from the forest, and then accompanied and assisted with her voice her musical brother, Carl, who played on the violin, at rural fairs, Her fine voice at the age of twelve, attracted the attention of a Sweedish mag istrate, through whoseefl'orts she was sent to Bchool, and received a musical education, first at Gorttenberg and then at Paris. At this latter citv she practiced six years under the celebrated teacher, Wartel. Her success on appearing in public was immediate, and she won the highest plaudits from the musical critics in London and Paris.

It it difficult to compare singers whom one hears twenty years apart, yet Chris tin* N*lsson necessarily calls to mind her countrywoman, Jenny Lind, whose visit to this country in 1850 was one continued ovation. In actual musical power we think we should give the preference to Jenny Lind. She stirred our heart to greater depths, and swept us away on a grander tide of song. But Miss Nilsson unites more varied attractions, in the addition of her higher beauty and more winning grace. It is not easy to picture a more charming figure on the stage, so representative of pbetry,music and purity Her beauty is of the Northern typeblue eyes, fair complexion, light, waving hair—and she seems the very embodiment of innocence. Her voice, which has lai ge compass, is full, rich and pure, in every tone from the lowest to the highest. In mere volume many others are her equals, and a few her superiors. She shows thorough discipline, and her voice is flexible, and under perfect control, though she does not display the marvelously profuse and intricate ornamentation in which some of the prima donnas indulge. In this we rather admire her taste, as a musical artist, which confines her to the truest rendering of the passages, and avoids mere vocal tricks. There is no drawback to the pleasure which her singing yields, so happy is the combination in person, manner and voice, and so unspotted is her reputation. The assistant singers are also of special merit, and it is worth one evening's attendance just to see and hear M. Vieuxtemps, as he shows, with a fond oddity and absorption, his mastery of the violin.

And what a gift of God is this power of song! How perfectly it expresses the most varied feeling, and sways the sensibilities of thr soul 1 Beauty, poetry and music—what a threefold cord! Surely God meant these artistic forces to have free play on earth, in a sphere of honor, purity and use. Why shoold Satan usurp the dominien, pervert the power, monopolize the use, prostitute the beauty? Let us encourage the association of art with religion, and teach the artists that God will hold them responsible for the noblest employment of His gifts.

MACARTHY MINSTRELS.—Mr. Joe H. Mack,jr the good looking and clever advance agent of th* Macarthy Minstrels on yesterday afternoon completed his arrangements for the comirfg of these new candidates for public favor, on Monday and Tuesday evenings next. He tells us that we need have no hesitancy in endorsing the Company, as all the members take high rank in what may be termed "refined minstrelsy." Of their appearance at Louisville the Courier-Journal thus speaks:

Weisiger Hall was crowded last evening to its utmost capacity with the elite of fashion to witness the second performance of Macarthy's Minstrels, and these minstrels are among the best. They are negro minstrels of a refined order, more so than we hare ever seen. Most troupes of this sort are minstrels but in name—they black their faces, sing stimulated songs, and crack worn-out jokes, of which a negro could not be capable, and which a negro would not dream of perpetrating. So far as the honor goes of being bona fide negro minstrels, this troupe may fairly lay claim to being the best. Macarthy himself is a comedian of no mean order. His rapid changes of character, four in number, were quite wonderful, while his banjo solo was of an excellent and most laughable character. We may confidently say that he is the most versatile actor that has et visited this city. The audience was ept in the best of humor by his inimitable and beautiful performances. Every member of this company is a star artist in his peculiar part. Billy Diamond is a broad-wit himself, and exceedingly funny his specialities. C. Lindsey Davis is a successful dispenser of the only remedy for the blues. The vocalism of Sam. Gardner, Jno. Stout and the great Quar tette, is far superior to that usually found in cork opera, and will win this company a world-wide reputation. The songs and dances by those artistic artists, Messrs. Mackin and Sullivan, is equaled but by few, and excelled by none. They are also

very good in their double statue clog. The instrumental part led by Gus. Gebert is first class. This afternoon this troupe gives a matinee and another performance this evening. It may be added that we noticed none of those allusions so common in these sort of entertainments that put them out of the pale of respectable amusements. The whole thing is conducted with quite remarkable originality and propriety."

The Christian Chnrcb and Union Prayer Meeting. EDITOR DAILY EXPRESS:—I desire to offer to your readers a word of expiana tion. The question has been often asked: What do you think of the Union Prayer Meeting and what is the attitude of your Church toward it? You are not mentioned in the published programme?

Were you not invited to co-operate? Did you refuse to do so? In reply I have to say:- I was invited to attend the meeting of the preachers in the city at which arrangements were made for the Prayer Meeting. I did not attend because I was not and could not be in the city at the time. I explained to a member of the Ministerial Association that I could not be present at the meeting referred to. I understand that the ques tion came up in the meeting: What is the attitude of the Christian Church and iU Pastor toward the Union Prayer Meet, ing? Why an explanation was not'pre sented at that time by the gentleman who knew the occasion of my absence, I of course do not know.

I said to him: Do not think because I do not meet with you that 1 do not desire to co-operate, such is not the case.

I am in favor of every good word and work, and if the Christian Congregation does not co-operate with the good people of this city in an endeavor to turn men to Christ, by the help of the Lord, it shall not be the fault of its Preacher.

I submit this explanation that all who desire to do so« may understand our true position. .•, B. B, TYUEE,

Pastor of Christian Church.
