YOU ANY

OLD CIGAR BOXES?—

The Chicago "Republican" says there has been a recent judicial decision touching the tax upon cigars, making it a penalty of $50 not to destroy the box after the cigars shall have been taken therefrom. This applies not only to the regular dealer in the article, but to the consumer, and the individual who has a dozen empty cigar boxes "kicking around his house, or in the possession of his children, had bettor put his foot in them, or institute a saving bank in order to meet the penalty, since the law does not excuse ignbrance.'"

the docket

yesterday we found the following cases: J. Selam, disorderly conduct, was finetfr with costs $12 45. Refusing to pay he was sent to the Station House, where he soon repented and paid tip like a little man.

Jacob Seicrist for using abusive language towards Andrew Weisner, was fined, with costs, $6 60. Paid.

Andrew Weisner, on charge of fighting, was assessed $8 05, which he stayed. Daniel McGregor was arraigned on charge of drunkenness, but the evidence was not sufficient to convict, and he was discharged.

Orrin Monholland was drunk and had to pay $0 05. BEFORE ESQ. SMITH.—In

report of the

Mayor's Court it will be observed that Jacob Seicrist was fined for using abusive language towards Andrew Weisman. The latter is in the employ of Wm. Ramme, a worthy German, engaged in the shoe business. The most abusive language used was an assertion that Weisman was a "Low Dutch Shoemaker." Mr. Ramme was a witness to testify "to this language, and in doing eo, as an apology for Seicrist's conduct, he remarked that "when Jake's drunk he's a tam fool!" This made Jake

angry that, as soon as the

trial was ended he went down to Esquire Smith and filed a complaint under the provoke law. The Esquire deemed him guilty, and assessed a fine. This provoke law, by the way, is one of the most outrageous enactments ever placed upon the statute books, and should be repealed a* earliest opportunity. "J. N."—We have received a note from the Philosopher J. N. He thus says: "I wish the entire press of Terre Haute to again thank the kind citizens of Terre Haute, for the sympathy shown me in days gone by, and postpone my lecture in Dowling Hall, until Monday night, 11th of September. I am not speaking much. I am waiting to give all ample time to see the truth of my position before I ask a full acquiescense. Truth has been dreaded from time immemorial, and always will be, as long as the world is as selfish as it is. It is always a pleasure to me to visit the beautiful Prairie City of Terre Haute, and philosophise with my friends at that excellent hotel, the National. I wish all my friends throughout the country to understand, that I will not urge my truths when the veil is fully lifted. I will then be understood and until then I can wait—wait and try and become wiser."

BUILDING PERMITS.—Since

our last re

port the City Board of Public Improvements have granted permits to erect buildings as follows:

M. J. Royse—Two story brick dwelling on lot No. 3 Farrington's subdivision. Cost $1,100.

are always

two sides to every case, whether it be the discussion of "narrow gauge" or a quarrel over a dog fight. Some days since, we gave a statement in regard to the arrest, at Washington, of Gray, the lamp burner man. Now comes the Washington "Chronicle" of the 25th, with this statement:

William H. Gray obtained a patent in April last for an improvement in lamp burners, making the usual affidavit that he was the inventor.

A few weeks since, one Gardiner, who made Gray's model, came here, and finding Gray, had him arrested, charging that he had committed perjury in making the above mentioned affidavit, claiming at the same time that he. (Gardiner) was the real inventor.

Gray was sent to jail to await the action of the grand jury. Gardiner, through the aid of the Police Court, having spiked Gray's mouth, was utiing due diligence in getting a patent for the same invention in his own name.

Unfortunately ior his scheme, Gardiner had written a few letters to Gray in relation to the same invention last winter.

Gray's counsel, Messrs. J. B. Adams and O. D. Barrett, sued out a writ ot habeas corpus, and had their client brought beforfe Judge Humphries. Gardiner was examined as a witness, and swore Gray stole his invention. Mr.'Barrett showed him one of the letters, and finally made him acknowledge he wrote it. The letter alluded to the invention in question as Gray's, and inquired if he had got it patented. Gardiner attempted, to explain this by saying he was a poor scholal, and, writing fast, he had made a mistake in calling it Gray's invention.

Another letter of a subsequent date was shown him, which, after a painful hesitation, he admitted writing. In this he advised Gray not to sell his invention until he, Gardiner, could see him and to the question as to what invention this referred to admitted that it was the invention in question.

Neither Gardiner's fast writing, poor scholarship, nor inventive genius could harmonize this with the theory that Gray had stolen the invention.

Judge Humphries, in delivering his opinion, said that, "Inasmuch as the evidence tending to show a state of facts necessary to establish perjury is wholly wanting and, on the contrary, shows affirmatively that no perjury has been committed, the prisoner must be discharged.^

PERSONAL.—Among

SECOXD DAY—FORENOON SESSION.

The Association assembled yesterday- morning at the lime appointed, and the exercises were duly opened by reading and prayer by Wm. H. Wiley.

The roll was then called and responded to by the majority of those enrolled. Mr. Wiley took up the subject of the Teacher again this morning, and Continued the discussion in ah able manner.

In his talk he classified the characteristics of a good teacher, as follows: 1. Disposition to do good. 2. Good health: 3d. Thorough scholarship. 4. Study of methods of teaching. 5. Good moral character. G. Ability to govern wiseh, and well- 7. Aptness to teach. 8. A

lasting responsibility to God for the manner in which he discharges his duty. The first four topics above were discussed yesterday and disposed of for the time being, though some of the remarks this morning had a bearing upon the same topics. 5. The good moral character of the teaaher was shown to be ah absolute ne* cessity, if we would be insured success in our efforts to instruct either morally or mcntdhj. For, if the' teacher does: not possess strictly moral character, in the highest sense of the word, he or she loses his or her influence t6 a great extent, over the pupils, and cannot command the same degree of respect and love, that he. or she could otherwise do.

G. Ability to govern wisely and well. This qualification of the teacher is also! veTy necessary and of vast importance in more than one sense.

The teacher should study human nature and himself in order to be able govern well.

He should be cautions, and not^peak harshly but investigate all cases kindly and good humoredly and by so doing he will wield an influence over the soholar that he could not, were he to pursue a different course. 7. Aptness.to teach. This is a point in which many teachers are deficient. Indeed they may possess all other qualifications and without this his success Will be small. Suck are those who do not possess the skill to 'manage the powerful instrument which.a class furnishes.

8. They, are like unskillful captains, who do not know how. to use tlieir'cbmpanies as single masses they hear jach pupil recite by himself,. ..forgetful of jthe rest of the class. i). Last of all and tlje most important is the teachers responsibility to God,1 for the manner in which lie discharges: his duty.

He should ever bear in mind the great work before him, and remember thpt ed» ucation is not alone for this world, but also for a higher sphere.

He should understand that .the destiny of his pupils are *9 a great extent entrusted to him to direct, and that he will be loved and respected accordingly as he discharges his duty faithfully in the fear of God. i, .!? U: !:!»5l O.Wn j"*"'

The Primary section retired to another room, where Mr. James M. Gordon gave a drill in Geography showing how he wiiukl instruct his pupils in.this branch of study, while Mr. Greenawalt presided over the other section in the consideration of Grammar, after which- they enjoyed an intermission of fifteen minntes exchanging ideas and endeavoring to be sociable.Vi.i. -il I

The Intermediate section took up Reading and the Primary took up Grammar, which occupied the remainder of the fdrenooni*

AFTERNOON SESSION.

The association convened at 2 o'clock. Arithmetic, Geography and Reading occupied the time before intermission, and considerable interest was manifestedVarious questions upon Geography were asked, such as follows:

What is the name of our country? After whom was it named? When organized? Number of square miles?

Name of the capital? Locate it? Give natural features* productions, &c., from which they proceeded 4o other features of the country, such as townships, their names, number, &c. Much more might be said Of these exercises and others connected with the work of the af-, afternoon,

After recess Ve' hatT spelling, and then listened to a number of short essays and extemporaneous speeches upon various subjects, viz:

HOW

to treat a bad boy

How to organize a school, The meeting closed at half-past four to meet at 9 o'clock this morning.

?. .r Award of Premium. The Committee appointed by the Vigo County Agricultural Society to examine the samples of stinks, and award the premium for the "loudest,'' have discharged their duty and beg leave to repor prematurely in order that owners of the articles examined be not compelled to hold them over until the Fair. However desirable it might be to have these rare specimens on exhibition, the Committee have not thought it advisable that they be detained at the expense of so much health and perhaps of life as would thus "be sacrificed. The Committee repaired in a body to the different hog wards of the city. They also spent several nights in different neighborhoods to note the rise and progress of the hog pen stench as it stole gently and sweetly over the sleeping city. Many members of the committee were inclined to award the premium to the porcine owners without further examination. It did not seem possible that the midnight effluvia arising from the* pigsties could b# excelled. On some occasions it was readily cut. with a knife, but in some instances it was too tough for any. steel at command of the committee. It was not thought just towards the other competitors to award the premium'without exanination of all specimens presented. Therefore the several artesian wells of the city were examined. The old Rose well was several degrees sweeter than the first named odor. At the well on the river bank one of the cominitfeewhile smelling was completely overpowered and for a time life seemed ex-stinked. At first it seemed that a smell which was so powerful as to threaten, and perhaps destroy life, must receive the premium. It is probable, however, thai the gas aided the stink here in its destructive work, and therefore it was decided a

"fonl." At the new oil well there was a rich odor. In fact it was so rich that it seemed likely to contribute very materially to the wealth of the city provided there should be a "narrow gauge" raiH road, to remove the product* At present the city is so full of this stink that the flow is stopped.

This day your Committee's attention was called to that part of SLsth street, lying between Main and Ohio, west side. After passing in a body from the National House to Central Park lliey decided to award the premium at once to the city authorities for this sample. Your Committee do not feel inclined to say that no: worse stink could be presented, but they do know that they could not survive an examination. As life is sweet, your Committee beg to render this report and be excused from further du ty.
