Tnisis Kobert Burn's birthday.

THE Clark House will serve the supper for the ball of the Cooper's Uniod.

M. H. SHRYEn, Esq, of Bloomfield will probably be the President of the Bloomfield Railroad.

MANY people are talking of putting, forward Perry Tuttle for the office of Mayor. A good candidate, if he can be induced to accept the position.

THE Robert Nichols party, who had engaged the Opera House for each evening this week, it is said went from Indianapolis to "where the woodbine twineth."

CHHISTIAN CHAPEL.—The meeting* are still in progress, and frequent additions are made to the Church. Preaching this evening at seven o'clock, and each evening during the week.

THE PRINTERS are sending out invitations for a ball at Beach's Hall on the evening of February 3rd. An enjoyable occasion may be anticipated by all who take part in the social gathering.

THE steamer Zanesville, came in last evening from Hutsonville with a load of lard from Preston, Lake & Co., destined for Cincinnati. The boat returns to Hutsonville this morning at ten o'clock.

MRS. NELSON DEAD.—The many, warm friends of the wife of Mr. George S. Nelson, conductor on the E. &. C. R. R. will be grieved to learn of her death, which occurred at Yincennes on Monday afternoon. The funeral services will be held at Vincennes to-day.

NEW BAND.-r-Mr. J. Breinijj, a thorough and-talented musician, who has recently made this city his place of residence, has reorganized Cuqua's Band, and with additions to the membership, the band is now ready to furnish brass and string music for all occasion. See advertisement in this morning's paper.

ARBESTED.—On Monday night a young man named Chet. Sherburne, was arrested by officer Vanderver, on charge of being the person that, on the night of the Engineers' Ball, assaulted'John Bell, an engineer on the Vandalia road, just as the latter was stepping out of the Academy of Music. Bell was struck on the head with a brick, and it is supposed the object of the assault was to rob him of a sum of money, which he had been very indiscreetly showing while in the Academy. Sherburne had a hearing before the Mayor, and in default of bail was committed to await the action of the Grand Jury.

I I I MM- I. v. Jfl

THE FIRST TRAIN.—Capt. Haney, of Clinton, called on us yesterday, having come down on the first regular passenger train from Newport. The time of making the run from Newport, thirty-one miles, is nearly two hours. The train arrives here at 11.05 A. M., and leaves at 4.15 p. M., allowing ample time for our Vermillion country neighbors to ascertain if the advertisements of our merchants, which they have so )png read up there in the woods, in the columns of the EXPRESS, are backed up with the bargains offered. While this train will prove of much profit to our merchants, the people to the north of us will find it of great benefit, and travel upon it a real luxury after the yeaVs of travel through mud and dust. op*

CRIHINAT COURT.—On yesterday Oliver C. Perry was tried by the court on an indictment found for stealing $25 and a revolver from one Laura Jones. The case was taken under advisement until this morning.

James Spann, charged with perjury in his testimony before the Grand Jury in the above case was alse ti ied by the court, and his case was held under advisement.

Jeptha Downs, an individual well known in the Municipal Court, was arraigned on charge of grand larceny, before a jury, and was awarded a term of two years in the penitentiary.

The court continues this morning its work of clearing the jail but the rapidity with which the officers are putting in new prisoners, it is something like bailing the pater froei & .boat with a hole init.

A DEN OP THIEVES BROKEN UF— Tni£FEE MEN ARRESTED. Yesterday morning about one o'clock, Chief of Police Crowe, assisted by Officers Sibley, Staley, McCabe and Vanderver, made an important arrest, which will probably stop the bold and daring burglaries and thefts that have been of almost nightly occurrence for a couple of weeks past.

Attention was first directed, we learn, by Officer Hay ward to a small one-story house on tbe corner of Twelfth street and Liberty avenue, occupied by a man named William Perry and a poor, sickly woman he called hia wife. It was noticed that several men, sowe of them well dresuec^

called

often at the house, and suspicions were aroused that all was not right. Accordingly Officer Sibley was detaijed for several nights to watch the premises. On

Monday night it was determined to search the house. The visit of the police was made as before stated, at about one o'clock yesterday morning. The man Perry very reluctantly opened ih'e door in response to Mr. Crowe's demand for admission. Besides Perry and his wife, two men were found lying upon the floor. A brief view of the surroundings was sufficient to con vince the officers that their suspicions of this house being a receptacle of stolen goods were well founded. Articles that were evidently stolen were found in boxes and trunks in the room, under the floor add in the garret.

The two men gave their names as Geo. Mott and William Foster, and said that they came here from St. Louis. On the person of one of the men was found a pistol, which was afterwards recognized as the weapon that was taken from Officer Lance when he was knocked down in his encounter with the burglars one night recently at Lutz's butcher house. Perry is just recovering from a pistol shot wound in the wrist, whiclfhe says occurred from an accidental discharge.

The three men were-taken to jail, and yesterday morning a wagon load of goods was taken from the

house

to the city court,

room, where the articles were displayed during the day for identification. Among the miscellaneous assortment—embracing a good stock of groceries, shawls, furs, a silver watch, silverware," men's clothing, underclothing of all kinds, Christmas toys, wood saws, canned fruit, baking powders, oil cafis, pencils, books, candy, soap, hair pins, and one mohair switch!— were found—some of the articles that have been taken from nearly every house that has recently been visited, showing that this was the headquarters of the band of thieves. Henry Robison was so lucky as to recover the valuable shawl and furs taken from his house on Sunday night Tch.

Gilman and Hall & Thomas found some of their groceries Jerry Voris got a stolen pistol George C. Duy recognized some of his silverware Dr. Van Valzah the articles taken from his clothes' line Mr. McDonald a pair of blankets William Barrick a buffalo robe, etc. The mohair switch and the "wad ding" accompanying the same have not been claimed 1 Nick Katzenbach looked the assortment through, unsuccessfully, for his fine gold watch. Mr. Jules Houriet failed to recognize anv articles taken from his store. Hr. H. at the time of the burglary offered a reward of one hundred dollars for thfe arrest of the burglars.

Very few burglar's tools were found— only a brace and bit and a chisel that exactly fits the prints recently left upon the doors at Turner and Buntin's and Maeh ler & Huffman's.

Wm. Duncan recogniaed George Mott as the man that attempted to rob him on South Sixth street, one night last week.

The three men had a hearing before Mayor Cookerly yesterday morning, and were committed in default of giving bail in the sum of$3,000 each.

MAYOR'S COURT.—Harris, the wife beater, mentioned in yesterday's paper, had a hearing yesterday morning, and was fined, with costs, ten dollars. .His wife refused to appear against him

Thomas Powell, the colored man ar rested on Monday on charge of stealing a cow some eighteen months ago, was discharged, the evidence not being deemed sufficient to convict him.

Two visitors of a house of bad character were heavily fined, and on failing to pay, were committed to jail.

THE social reunion of the Mtennerchor on Monday evening, was one of the pleasantest and most enjoyable affairs that has occurred since the organization of the Society. The attendance was larger than on any similar occasion for two years, and with the few invited friends the hall was almost uncomfortably crowded. After the performance of a comic opera the remaining hours of the night were spent in dancing.

THE Cincinnati Commercial of last Wed nesday published a dispatch from this city, stating that Nilsson could not sirg because of "acute iuflamation of the heart."—Terrc Haute Mail.

Charge that error to the telegraph operator at Terre Haute. It went all over the West in that shape, and was so published everywhere.—Ind. Sentinel.

Not so. It was published correctly in most of the papers. The operator* who sent the dispatch from Terre Haute is one of the best in the service of the Western Union Telegraph Company.

RHEUMATISM AND PARALYSIS CURED. —Among the many recent cures performed by Dr. Darrin the Healer, we will mention the case of T. J. Gray, editor of the Brazil Miner, Brazil, Indiana, who has been a terrible sufferer from chronic rhenmatism for a long time—joints very much swollen—not being able to wear boots for weeks at a time. With a few ma'gnetic treatments he is restored to health. Mrs. A. Ward, of Southport, Indiana, is also made happy with the cure of paralysis of her right side. Truly the days of miracles are not paesed, judging from the results above mentioned. •_*_

Gold Fish and Aquariums.—FredWood&ridge desires to return immediately to Indianapolis, and in order to save packing and shipping he will sell his stock of gold fish, aquariums, globes and shells at astonishingly low prices, until Thursday at noon, when the stock unsold will be packed up and returned to Indianapolis.

MONTROSE FARMERS' CLUB.

MONTROSE, Jan. 16,1871.

The Club met, President Parker in the Chair. The minutes oi the previous meeting were read and approved. "Shall we sell oar sarplns feed, or bay stock to consume it?" was the subject before the Club for consideration. ".

Mr. Jackson—This matter is governed somewhat by circumstances. For several reasons, I am inclined to the opinion that feed should be consumed on the farm. By feeding grain on the farm that pro* duces it, we measurably return to the soil that fertility that was used in its production. By selling the products of the soil in the markets, the soil is gradually impoverished, unless the fertility is restored in some other way.' I think the Surplus grain should be fed only upon the farm, and should recommend rotation of the crops, to aid in keeping up tne fertility of the soil.

Mr. Parker—There is BO wisdom in farmers growing grain and turning it over to speculators. Farmers should feed all their surplns to their own stock. This course will make them more money and enable them to more readily keep up the fertility of the soil.

A 150 pound hog, fed 15 bushels of com, at 35 cents per bushel, can be made to weigh 300 pounds. We nnd here, then, 150 pounds of pork, worth $9 at 6 cents, produced for $5 25. Take $5 25, market value of corn,' from |9, and we find we have saved $3 75 by having our surplus corn consumed on the farm.

I cannot see why farmers persist in selling their leed at town instead of feeding it out to their own stock at home.

Mr. Brown—Whether one should feed urplus grain to stock at home depends on one's proximity to market, value of land, &c. Those living within four or five miles Of a good grain market should sell rather than feed to stock. One very remote from market mast, necessarily, feed surplus to animals. The_ value of land must be taken into the consideration, also. It will not pay to raise stock on land worth $150 to $200 per acre. Land remote from market, worth from $30 to $35 per acre, it will pay to raise sleek upon. The cheap land is the land for stock raising. The hog fatted on land worth $30 per acre is just as good as if fatted'on more valuable land. Formerly, when our prairie lands'were cheap, we supplied the markets with cattle. But since they .have become too valuable for stock raising, we are driving into our markets thousands upon thousands of beet cattle from the far-off cheap lands of Texas.

As to benefitting the soil very materially by keeping and feeding stock upon it, I loubt very much. Those who- sell their surplus grain in market can return home from the city, loaded with manure, at no other expense than the hauling.

Mr. Parker—Brother Brown is wrong. The price of land does not affect this question in any particular. The farmer should not sell his surplus feed in its raw

StaMr.

Hawkins—Brother Brown does not stick to the subject. We should sell surplus feed when it is best to do so. Wheat should not, as a general thing, be consumed on- the farm, though there are times when it will pay to feed it to stock at home. I think it eminently better for the farmer to keep stock enough to con «ume his surplus feed, provided he can buy stock at such prises as will justify him. That part, however, of his surplus feed that cannot be fed out to good advantage, should be hauled to market and sold. Keeping stock is certainly beneficial in keeping land fertile, but this may be accomplished by turhing —J~sod.

Mr. Patrick—The farmer can not rely on stock-raising as a means of keeping up fertility of soil. Keeping stock is some benefit to the soil, but not the great "panacea" that gentlemen would have us believe it to be. Manure must be hauled upon the land independent of what little is left there by the stock. It is not best to sell any surplus feed while stock can be had to consume it.

Mr. Jackson—Is wheat recognized as horse-feed? It is certainly not hog-feed. It is for bread. The professional stockraiser does not raise much wheat—only enough to supply his own family with bread. He, of course, sells no feed in its crude state, but hu it consumed by stock, which he-has taken precaution to provide at reasonable prices for that purpose. Potatoes make good hog-feed.

The value of lana does not have any bearing on the question under consideration. The value of land does not affect the price of stock or feed. Who makes more money than the dairymen on high priced land? How would they succeed with their stock -remote Jrom a milk market on low priced land, such as we are told, the stock-should be kept on for profit?

Two ears of corn per day will keep a hog till four months old, when he should be turned into wheat stubble then into clover and finished off with ten bushels of corn, when he will weigh 300 pounds. All this should be done on the farm without any assistance whatever from the speculator.

Sowing land in the various grasses for pasture, and rest from cultivation will improve the fertility of the soil. That which makes the beef will not make the soil rich.

Mr. Patrick—Feeding stock upon land restores but a small portion of the drain upon the soil's fertility, necessary in growing the feed. Some of the fertility of the soil is changed into annimal fiber. The finest fertilizer is to be found in privy vaults.

As to wheat, it should not be used as food for stock—we can realize more on that staple by converting it into flour for family use.

Mr. Hawkins—Any kind of food for man or beast in excess is a surplus. Now, when wheat and corn are $1,00 per bushel each, the wheat should be consumed by stock on the farm, and the corn should be sold in its raw state. One pound of wheat will go as far toward lattening a hog as two of corn. When straw can be made to answer as well in feeding stock as oats, the oats should be sold in maket and the straw fed out on the farm.

Mr. Barnes—It is best to feed surplus feed to stock on one's farm. When one can raise but fifteen bushels of wheat per acre to forty and fifty bushels of corn per acre, it is eminently better to have no surplus of wheat at all for market at present prices. It is safe, however, for the farmer to so manage that his surplus, it any, may consist in that kind, or kinds, of feed that will command remunerative prices. But it is better, all things considered for the farmer to own stock enough to consume all the feed that he can raise.

Mr. Brown—Gentlemen preach one thing and- practice another. They are not consistent. They nearly all advocate the feeding of surplus feed to stock and at the same time none of them keep enough stock to consume it, but are seen selling it in its raw state in our markets. I know of no farmer near Terre Haute who makes stock raising a speciality. Gentlemen are all doing in this matter as theyoiM&C. Notwithstanding their theories their practice is in harmony with a course that pays best I am proud of be iftg a farmer. I raise corn, potatoes and other articles for market, and keep but little stock. Have found but little money in wheat and oats.

Mr. Jackson—Notwithstanding many of us may not have practiced what would have been to our financial interest, yet "While tbe lamp holds out to burn the vilest sinner may return.7' If brother Brown is so much opposed to the keeping and feeding of slock, why does he buy bogs to consume his surplus feed? He is a little inconsistent in that, I think.

After many remarks of a general character on various minor topics, the Club a^jonrned.

Distress !—A

gentleman,

yesterday, took the liberty of stepping into a store, located somewhat neawr the Wabash than we, to look at their furs. He boaght a small piece of jeans and looked at three sets of furs, which he said he would come.back and get if he did not find them cheapei at Foster Brother's, whose furs he wished first to l6ok through. Forthwith, they proceeded to deal in the lowest kind of personal abuse of our house, which, however, had only the effect to make this gentleman think that perhaps their prices were as high as their slanders were vile, so he left them and came into our storet and, sure enough, found our fuis about two dollars a set cheaper. He boaght the three sets of us and then went back to this store to get his piece of jeans. When they found he had bought the furs of us, what did tfcey do? Why they said he had bcught theiis, and if he didn't take them they would call an officer and have him arrested. These valiant men succeeded in frightening the gentleman's wife, but didn't have the same success with the man of the party, wbo told them, in substance, that they couldn't browbeat him into any such ar rangement. Surely these high-priced stores must be getting pushed pretty hard for a sale when they have to threaten to call in the police to assist them in their endeavors to fleece the people. This gentleman's name is at onr disposal and the firm in question can have it by calling for it publicly. FOSTER BROTHERS'.
