We mention this for the benefit of people who go to concerts late, for the purpose of—well, we wouldn't intimate for the purpose ot shewing their good clothes—but for whatcu-, purpose, it is a provoking disturbance to geople who go in time and get well seated, for the enjoyment of the entire performance.

•J"AURESTF.I FOR LARCENY.—Jacob Stultz, son of George Stultz, of Otter Creek township, was arrested yesterday, upon an indictment found by the Grand Jury, charging him with stealing the sum of one hundred and fifty dollars from William Moore, of the same township. Young Stultz was brought to the city and released upon his father giving bond in the sum of $500 for his appear ance at court.

The case of the State rs. James Spann. charged with perjury in bearing faW testimony before the Grand Jury, wacalled, and set for Wednesday, as was also that of the State tw. Ann Boyle, larceny.

THE NILWOH CONCERT.—To night we are to have the much talked-of Nilssou Concert, and on this occasion we are assured thatoneof the very best programmes has been arranged. The reports of Miss Nilsson's illness need cause no uneasiness, as she sang in Chicago on Friday and Saturday evenings and arrived in Indianapolis yesterday morning in good phys ical condition and good voice for the concert in that city last evening. Of the rich musical treat in store we need say no more than has already been stated in these columns. Exceedingly favored is Terre Ilaute in having an audience room, which alone has been the means of drawing such an aggregation of musical celebrities as compose the Nilsson troupe.—

We hazard little in the statement that every seat in the house from orchestra to upper gallery will be filled this eveningj and those who have not secured seats will do well to attend to the same immediately, or put in an early appearance this evening. Perhaps the latter may be somewhat risky.

Du CHAILLU'S LECTURE.—Other en .gagements permitted us to hear only the concluding portion of Mr. Du Chaillu's lecture at the Opera House last evening.

We were agreeably surprised to find quite a large audience assembled, no inconsidable portion of which was composed of children. All seemed intensely interested in the recital of the strange scenes and adventures of which the lecturer had been an eye-witness, and in which he had participated. In the delivery of his lecture Mr. Du Chaillu makes no attempt at oratory his broken English necessarily compels him to adopt the conversational •tyle. Throughout there is a vein of dry humor that greatly relieves any tedious ness in the descriptions of the wild country and the strange people of which he speaks. Some of the scenes were graphically described, especially that of his first encounter with the Gorilla. There was absolutely a sense of relief, when, seemingly, we heard the crack of the rifle and the monster fell dead at his feet.

We hope that this will not be Mr Du Chaillu's last visit to our city. It is said that his lectures to children are quite interesting and instructive, and we should be pleased to announce one of this class, either this or the next season.

SINGULAR INCIDENT.—On Saturday evening, a gentleman stopping at the Terre Haute House, discovered a small boy, about six years of age, leaning against the west wall of the building, apparently endeavoring to shelter himself from the rain. In answer to the inquiry what he was doing there, the boy said: "Praying." "For what are you praying asked the gentleman. "That some one will take me in out of the rain," promptly replied the boy. The gentleman asked the boy to come into the house, bnt the little fellow declined. On being informed of the case, Mr. Buntin rushed out into the storm, and gathering the boy in his arms was about to carry him into the house, but the latter kicked and screamed so that he was obliged to let him down, and the boy started up Seventh street. On going back into the house, Mr. Buntin sent one of his boys with an umbrella after the lad, but the latter was not overtaken and was not seen afterwards. It Was a singular incident.

COMMITTED.—The three burglars, whose arrests were mentioned in our last issue, were brought before the Mayor yesterday morning, and in default of $1,000 bail each, were committed to await the action of the next grand jury. John Allen is the name of

fhe

man arrested at Andrews'

shoe store. He claims to be from St Louis. The names of the men arrested at D. C. Greiner's, are William Stump and George Smith. The former is young man for a long time in the employ of Snapp & Haynes, in the capacity of draughtsman. His companion, Smith, is a tight-rope performer, and made his first appearance in this city in that role, at the Academy of Music on Saturday evening. His engagement has been quite brief.

Benjamin Algood, who was arrested Saturday night, on charge of larceny, was also committed in default of giving bail in the sum of $300.

THECLAY COUNTY COAL.—A correspon dent in yesterday's Cincinnati Enquirer, writes that Col. J. W. Faster, the Geologist in the employ of the North and South Railroad, and the Vice President of the Illinois Central Railroad, with Professor Cox, State Geologist, inspected the coalfields of Clay county on Thursday last.

It is the intention of the Illinois Central to run a branch from their main line to the most available point, so as to connect with the block coal region of Clay county, and although interested in the coal mines in Illinois, it is proposed to substitute the Indiana coal for that of Illinois on account of its superior advantages for boiler use.

AND now come Herz«& Arnold, who take a column of our advertising space, to impress upon our readers the fact that while reading a good book the mind is cultivated and good use is made of time and that while reading their advertisements you learn where to buy nice and cheap goods, and how to make good use of your money all of which is true.

As THIS is the time of year when social gatherings of various kinds do most abound, it is well for society young gentlemen to read this bit of advice which John G. Saxe tenders them: In going to parties just mind what yon're at. Beware of your head, and take care of your hat, Lest you find that a favorite son of your mother Ha1! an ache in the one and a briek in the other.

AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.—The stockholders of the Vigo Agricultural Society met in this city last Saturday and elected the following gentlemen as a Board of Directors: Thomas Dowling, Lynns Moyier, John J. Ferrel, C." H. McMurtrie, A. B. Fouts, David Pugh, Jos. Gilbert, J. M. Sanky, M. M. Hickcox,. E. B. Sheets, Wm. R. Hunter, C. C. Smock.

With the exception of Messrs. Dowling, Ferrell and Gilbert, this is an entire new Board. The directors will hold a meeting on Saturday next for the purpose of electing the executive officers.

The preliminary survey Is finished and the report of it will be forwarded to Congress early next week. The survey demonstrates that the river can be made navigable to Lafayette in all ordinary stages of water upon 8P outlay of a million and a quarter, and if the amount is increased so as to increase the number of locks and dams, navigation will be open at all times except when there is ice to prevent it.

There will be sent up memorials from every town from Lafayette to the mouth of the river, on both sides, extensively signed, and if our leading citizens'will write to Congressmen urging upon them to give the subject attention we are sure of securing the improvement.

I wish you would announce that persons having charge of memorials in your city are requested to return them signed as fully as |ossible to me here by the 25th init.

Yours, truly,* L. NOBLE. 5 From the Bloomfield Tribund.] I

Onr Railroad Prospects.8*-CI The meeting last Saturday was more numerously attended than the best friends of Railroad enterprise in Bloomfield hoped to see. A very healthy spirit too, was manifested, and if such a feeling will continue but four weeks longer, and increase as every indication argues that it will, we can rest assured that the great feat of seenring a railroad will have been accomplished.

The actionjof the meeting may appear strange to the peopleof Terre Haute, who have already given such abundant proof of their willinguess and anxiety to aid in this enterprise. But the long time that has elapsed since this project was agitated, the peculiarity which has characterized the subscriptions, by being put down simply to a railroad and not an organization, the delay in effecting an organization, when it was claimed that two hundred and fifty thousand dollars were subscribed, and i' only requiring one fifth of that amount to organize the company, has created a want of confidence among them who could and would give, to an extent which prevented them from subscribing. We have clamored for the organization of a company, and have never heard a'reason, good, bad or indifferent, why there could not be one. Grave doubts are expressed by Bome of the best friends of the Terre Haute and Bloomfield Railroad as to the legality of any of the subscriptions, and it is to clear these up that the Committee was appointed.

Now is the time for Terre Haute to strike if she wants to secure direct railroad connection with this section. Let those of her people who have befriended this road in times past, not only give the committee all the information they may seek, but let them send one or two of the friends of the road over here to our meeting on the 21st instant, duly empowered to negotiate, and we believe that the preliminary business, so far as securing the requisite amount of slock and donations necessary for our proportion, will all be secured at that meeting. However much Terre Haute is willing to subscribe, there cannot be a feeling so unanimous and devoid of suspicion, unless there is more of a direct intercourse and community, of interest manifested. The people of Bloomfield and vicinity have paid out and paid out to build railroads, and still they are without one. I hey have become suspicious of all. railfoad enterprises, and unless they are "convinced beyond the possibility of a doubt," as the lawyers say, they will not embarke in the enterprise.— While we sincerely regret this state of affairs, we cannot, with the facts before us, immeasurably deprecate it. If by any reasonable effort our people can secure a road they intend to do it, but they want it to run to Bloomfield, and not to some other point, where the interests of the citizens are in no wise benefitted.

The effort now being made is one that will be attended with a complete success or a complete failure. With this effort depends the fate of direct communication with Terre Hante ahd if the citizens of that place will show us the favor we ask and aid us with the information demanded, visit us and show by their presence and voice that their professions are all that the newspapers say they are, we are satisfied that all they demand of Greene county will be speedily granted. Let every one interested in our future prosperity be present on the. 21st. Let us have a full meeting, a big crowd, a strong representation of the wealth of the country, and if the assurances from all quarters corresponds with the necessity of the enterprise, the last grand struggle to secure a railroad will be made, and will be successful too.

Home Testimony the Best.—While French Ribbons and other foreign decorations are held in high esteem by some, and by others when a concert troupe is furnished gratuitously with pianos, as shown by several troupes who had instru ments furnished by as many different makers, Kissner, at the Palace of Music, is contented in making his sales without such claims.
