The City and Vicinity.

No amusements in town to night of a public character.

CATAWBA grape pills are the latest medical wrinkle. THE Journal attributes the Democratic defeat to a want of voles!

THE rain yesterday was bad for the Odd Fellows, but good for the farmers.

THE city will soon be governed entirely by Republican officials, while all the county officers will be Democratic.

THE National House entertained two wedding parties yesterday—one from Newport and the other from Clinton.

SANT C. DAVIS and Hon. I. N. Pierce start this morning for Memphis and other southern points. They will be absent four or five weeks.

SULLIVAN is progressing. On Monday la3t, for the first time in the history of the town, a Republican, N. G. Buff, was elected a member of the Council from the Third Ward.

EARLY.—Beigler & Co., the enterprising vegetable and fruit dealers, near the Market House, had the first strawberries of the season yesterday. They were raised at Mr. Beigler's garden in this city.

THE new City Council will be com posed of a painter, a shoe dealer, a car manufacturer, carpenter, lawyer, groceryman, saloon keeper, cooper, railroad superintendent and a brickmason. Quite a variety.

THE vote cast in this city for Mayor in 1869 was 2,341. Last Tuesday it was 3,318, showing an increase of 977 votes in two years. A portion of this increase came from the new additions recently made to the city.

RUNAWAY.—T. C. Slaughter's horse ran away and demolished his buckboard yesterday morning. Mr. S. had just driven up to his residence and was about stepping to the ground when he slipped and fell. This frightened the horse and away he went.

BEFORE ESQUIRE DENEHIE during the two days following theelection there have been eleven State cases, for assaults, provokes, Ac. Only three convictions were made out of the entire lot, a ring being formed in most of the cases, by the parties to swear each other out of trouble.

A DASTARDLY ACT.—Yesterday evening a man named Lydick, who keeps a a grocery and bar on South First street, ejectcd an old man named Goodman, from his premises, with such violence as to break his thigh. Goodman was intoxicated, but is entirely harmless.

ICE CREAM.—W. A. Sheap, opposite the Postoffice, has had an extension built to the rear of his toy and candy store sufficiently large for a commodious ice cream saloon, and has fitted up with marble tables, fine Brussels carpet and all the appurtenances of a tasteful and elegant establishment. He will be prepared to serve creams this evening, and promises that they shall be as good as the best.

CAL WAGNER'S MINSTRELS gave what was decidedly the best minstrel performance of the season, at the Opera House last evening, before an audience that should have been much larger. We regret that the Company cannot remain another evening, as last night's performance would have been a good advertisement. "Happy" Cal Wagner, is properly so styled, as he is one of the best comedians in the profession.

TEMPERANCE MAS3 MEETINGS.—Mass temperance meetings will be held in Dowling Hall on Sunday at 3} P. M. and 7J r. M. The meetings will be under the auspices of the State Temperance Alliance. Several gentlemen from abroad will address the meeting, among them Prof. Hoss, of the State University. A number of the city congregations will not have service at night, so as to give their congregations the opportunity of attending the meetings of the Temperance Alliance. It is expected that there will be a large attendance.

THE ODDFELLOWS' DEMOHSTRATION.— Last evening the members of Fort Harrison Lodge No. 157, I. O. O. F. took formal possession of their new and elegant Hall, in the Gilbert building,and dedicated the same to the purpose* of Odd Fel-

lowslup. At two o'clock in the afternoon a procession was formed, composed of the two lodges in this city, the lodge at Clinton and several members from the Sullivan Lodge, and after passing through the principal streets led by Breinig's Band, repaired to Dowling Hall. Past Grand Master W. K. Edwards acted as President of the Day. After prayer by Rev. James Hill and the singing of several beautiful odes by the choir, an address, setting forth the objects and aims of the order, was delivered by Rev. B. Foster, of Indianapolis. The address was listened to with marked attention and was of much interest. The procession, notwithstanding the rain, was quite imposing, and attracted much attention. Several distinguished Odd Fellows from abroad were present and participated in the exercises of the day and evening.

The dedicatory services were performed at the new Hall, commencing at seven o'clock in the evening, in the presence of a lar and well entertained audience. The ceremonies began by the Ncble Grand, C. E. Hosford, requesting the members to clothe themselves in regalia, and the officers to take their re? spective stations. Thereupon the audience and choir sung an ode then prayer by Rev. B. F. Foster, and then another ode was sung, when Grand Master W. Edwards, Deputy Grand Master John Reynolds, Grand Chaplin Rev. James Hill, Grand Marshal T. E. Lawes, Grand Herald H. D. Milns, assisted by A Burnett and Johu H. O'Boyle as officers and members of the Grand Lodge of Indiana, were announced and admitted for the purpose of dedicating the Hall. The Lodge officers vacated their stations to the Grand Lodge officer After prayer and the singing of odes, C. E. Hosford as N. G., delivered over the Hall to the Grand Master, who accepted the same for dedication, according to ceremony, and the same was BO dedicated. Proclamation thereof was made by Heralds from the North, the South, the East and the West, amid Ringing and music. The Heralds were F. A. Ross, A. J. Grundy, S. Lakin and Wm. Balch That part of the ceremony, the sprinkling of water, lighting fire on the altar, scattering wheat and strewing flowers, with

THE NEED OF A HOME.—A judicious writer thus criticises the growing custom of "boarding" by families, in preference to "keeping house:"

Among our numerous and curious inventions, we have of late brought into popularity what is, perhaps, the least beautiful of them all—family boarding. To avoid expense and be rid of trouble, housekeeping is broken up, and father and mother and children make their abode in the hotels. Now I would not for a moment intimate that the boarding house is not as necessary as it is a useful institution. Far from it. I intend to assert that it cannot make a family home was never intended to do so. Indeed, I might add, the experience of unhappy hosts and guests, who have a right to be in a boarding-house, because they have no family and can have no home, mournfully testifies that however the attempt may be made to constitute it a home, the results are not lovely. As a general thing a boarding family is a boarding nuisance. The family must have a home, and the hotel or the boarding house can never give it. To have a home which is not all a name, you must have a door which shall open to yoors as to no other hand, a threshold upon which you step as the drawbridge to your castle, a house over which you may go with the nnthought consciousness that it is yours alone. Its halls must not be the thoroughfare of a hundred passers, and your rooms your only domain.

This hotel life has a disastrons effect on a family of children. It renders family training and true government very difficult, and almost impossible. If, to avoid the subtle and unfortunate results of promiscuous intercourse, the little ones are confined in their apartments, their physical as well as mental health must suffer if they are permitted to be abroad, they are subject to influences entirely beyond parental control. If the child be interesting or sprightly, he is petted and spoiled if he be dull or peculiar, he is soured and injured by neglect and in either case the litte one bears the unfortunate consequences of the evil circumstances by which he is inevitably surrounded.

If parents do not need a home, their children do and though it should be the smallest of all homes, they should have one. The number of its apartments and and the style of its furniture are but of small account in comparison with the thing itself. If I were advising a young married couple, I would say: As soon

it as something to be striven after unfalteringly till it is obtained. It is easier to

Below we print the report of the Finance Committee to the City Council at its last meeting: V' To the Mayor and Council:

The Committee on Finance, whose duty it is to examine the books, accounts and vouchers of the City Treasurer for the last six months, ending April 30th, 1871, have performed that duty and beg leave to report

As the Committee submitted, two weeks ago, the Annual Report on the financial condition of the city, which lias been spread upon the record of the Council, and published in the daily papers of this place, the present paper is

Council. The gross expenditures for the last six months were $31,221 55. These sums were paid out by him, for which he produces vouchers. These receipts are herewith submitted.

The Treasurer's report, for the past six months, is also hereby communicated, showing the receipts and expenditures for that period, with the items embraced. The Committee fixed the vouchers toCorrespond with the payments and the official duty of the Treasurer seems to have been discharged with scrupulous fidelity.

By an ordinance passed July 5, 1870, entitled, "An ordinance regulating the manner of keeping and depositing monies raised by special tax for special objects," it was made the duty of the City Treasurer to keep those funds separate from the taxes raised for general purposes. These special taxes comprised the fund set apart to redeem Normal School bonds, of which there is outstanding some $22,000 the tax to pay interest on the bonds of the city, known as the Evansville, Terre Haute & Chicago Railroad bonds and the special tax known as a "sinking fund" to redeem the principal monies on said latter bonds when due. That 01 dinance provides that the monies collected for interest payments shall be deposited at interest (on call every six months) and the sinking fund taxes permanently, in the both cases at the "highest rate of interest and safest security." The time has come when these investments should be made so that these special taxes, which the people have entirely paid, shall not be diverted from their true and legitimate purposes. The Committee believe that this is the true business mode of conducting the finances of the city. The application of these various taxes to the purposes for which they were levied secures honesty and safety. The committee find, from the report of the Treasurer, that these special funds in the City Treasury, amount to the following sums: Normal School Fund $19,308 24 Railroad Bond Interest Fund... 3,527 78 Railroad Bond Sinking Fund... 3,524 00

The ordinance now existing requires such disposition of them as will place these funds sacredly to the purpose for which they were levied.

To carry out in good faith, the ordinances ofthe city, and the pledges made by this Council and its predecessors, we submit for consideration the appended resolutions. The Normal School Bonds will be due in June, 1871, and a month's notice Bhould be given to the holders thereof to present them for payment. The sooner the interest on the bonds is stopped the better. Notice should also be given that interest will be stopped on the day of maturity^ whether presented for payment or not:

Resolved, That the City Treasurer be directed to place at interest, in some safe banking house, what is known as the "Railroad bond interest fund" (to be called for as required on the first days of January and July of each year) also the "Railroad Bonds Sinking Fund," (to remain as a permanent investment,) and that in such investment he shall require the "highest and best legal interest, and the safest security," as is provided in the ordinance passed July, 1870.

Having noticed the eflfoits of certain

parties (0 create an impression that

"Phoenix" brand White Lead is in com

petition with our "Eagle" brand, simply

because chicanery triumphs over reason,

and right in procuring the award of a*'

silver medal, not for merit as they insin~. 1 nate, as every experienced Painter who

has used our Lead knows, but, in the lan

guage of the Committee, not one of whomj

is a practical man, say in their award,|

which is as follows: "The specimens of

White Lead exhibited by the manufac

tures were all pure and of excellent

quality, the only appreciable difference being in the purity of color, and E. H. & Co.'s make being judged the whitest,the premium^

was awarded to thein." Every practical

Painter understands that whiteness in

lead may be obtained in small quantities

for an exhibition or by grinding it in

bleached oil, that is not found in the

same brand in larger quantities, and that

whiteness,when prepared for mark«t,is one

of the smallest requisites in White Lead,

as it soon Bleaches after being spread, but

it is the Body or opacity fineness and so

skillfully manufactured as to become

white by age that is the perfection of its

preparation. These properties we claim

for onr Lead and whiteness equal to any

other. There was awarded to us a large

and beautiful Gold Medal for true merit in White Lead, possessing all the requisite

qualities of a durable and handsome Paint.

All large dealers in Paints sell our

Lead, and Painters who are the best

judges of the quality of that which they

are in daily use have patronized us for

the last twenty-five years indirectly. To

them we refer. ..
