MAYOR'S

COURT.—There was spread

upon the docket yesterday the following cases: rtm. Jones for being ilrunk and disorderly was assessed $S 35, which he paid.

S. B. Bethel, charged with a plain drunk, was discharged. Wm. Smith was arrigned on charge of being drunk and disorderly. In consideration of his being a "dead beat" he was let off on promise to leave town.

Wm. Reisenbrink, came in on a "drunk and disorderly." His bill amounted to $7 55, for the payment of which he gave security.

Chauncey Miller and a man in his employ named Thomas Smith, were fined $9

each for fighting. The how of it was about this. By carelessness Smith broke Miller's wagon. The latter blowed him up—Smith blowed back, and seizing a heavy wooden pin struck at Chauncey. The latter dodged -the murderous blow, and then went for the man, putting a fearful head on him. His Honor was puzzled to decide which was to blame and so fined each the amount above named. Chauncey remarked, as he received his nickle in change that it was the first fine ho had ever paid in Terre Haute. I

BOLD HIGHWAY BOBSE*"?

A Priest Tied to a Tree and Bobbed

Upon the morning train yesterday, from the east. August Keigleineyer,' a French Catholic Priest, arrived in this city en route from New York to St. Louis. He has been for years a missionary in China, and arrived in this country only five days ago. At eleven o'clock yesterday he started to walk out to St. Mary's, intending to visit that institution and take the evehing train at that point for St. Loui9. When about two miles ooi he was halted by three men, one of whom struck him a blow which felled him to the ground. He was then tied to a tree, and the contents of his valise examined. The robbers took all his money, about $169 $120 being in French gold—his gold watch, exchanged hats and boots with him, and left him bound to the tree. He succeeded in releasing himself about two o'clock, and immediately returned to this city, where information was filed with Chief of Police Gilmore, but up to last evening no trace of the villains had been discovered.

Tke CONCERT TO-NIGHT.—The indi cations are that the most sanguine expectations of the managers of the Conserva tory of music will be realizedTn the attendance upon the closing concert this evening at the Opera House: and we can safely promise that the quality of the concert will fully meet the most sanguine expectations of those in attendance. The full strength of the classes in attendance upon the Conservatory will be brought out in the grand chorusses which have been rehearsed under the direction of Prof. Baker. Mr. Ora Pearson, former pupil of Prof. Baker's, and who is recognized as the most gifted tenor in the west will take part in the concert and Miss Fanny J. Kellogg, thelowa Nightingale, will again charm us with her deliciously sweet vocalization. The instrumental part will be in charge of Prof. Kilbourneand Mr. Wm. Zobel. Prof. B.F. Baker will give direction, and altogether we can safely promise one of the best con certs ever given by home talent in this city. Seats can be secured to-day at B. G. Cox'e, without extra charge.

Since the above was in tpye we are gratified to learn that Mr. and Mrs Nippert with Mr. Paige will sing a trio, and Mrs. Nippert will favor the occasion with a solo. The following is the programme for the evening:

THE

O'MARA

has in

his possession a sorrel mare supposed to have been stolen, and for whi^h he would be pleased to see the owner.

We also understand that Mr. Rose proposes to make the bore of his well larger down to the oil vein, put in a plug below that, and pump the oil. It is believed that tha yield of oil will be equal to that of the Cherry street well.

"TREATING."—If

there is anything ab-

surder than this habit, we are unable to put our fingers on it. Men do not always '"treat" one another to car tickets, because they happen to meet on the same Beat We never saw a man, on encountering an acquaintance, take out his pocket book, and say, "Ah, George! Delighted to see you! Do you take a few postage stamps! It's my treat!" Do men have a mania for paying each other's board bill? And is drinking together more "social" than eating together or sleeping together?

A traveler may go sill over the conti nents of Europe, Asia and Africa, without seeing any man except a Yankee offer to "treat," and the Frenchmen are quite social enough but when they go into a cafe to sip their wine, or. brandied coffee to gether, each man pays for his own. When two Germans, long separated meet, they will be very apt to embrace, and then turn into an adjoining beer cellar, sit down, drink lager, eat pretzels and etc but when they part again each man set ties his own score independently. So in Italy. The Italians are proverbially merry and generous, but each man pays for his own wine, maccoroni and cigars. They never go into each other's pocket book in the sacred name of friendship They would as soon think of transferring to each other their Washerwoman's bill.

The preposterous fashion of "treating" is responsible for the terrible drunken nesnin America. There would be as lit* tie need of temperance societies, and little work for the Good Templars as there is in Germany, France and Italy, if this pernicious and insidious habit was abol ished. It is, take it all in all, the most ridiculous, the most unreasonable, and the most pestilent custom that ever laid its hand on civilized human beings.— Eiehangc.

There are quite a number of of young men in this .city who have talked of getting up an "Anti-Treating Society" among themselves, and wish very much to do it, but have not the moral courage necessary to take the initiatory steps. They want to feel the "touch of elbows,"and we publish the article quoted above to show in what estimation the incumbus of "treating" is held elsewhere. Many a man has gone thirsty after going to a fountain for a glass of soda, or into a saloon for a glass of beer, because he saw there'a dozen chance acquaintances —all of whom he must ask up to drink with him at the risk of being considered niggardly—when his funds were too low for the necessary expenditure. This treat ing business is a senseless, pernicious habit, and a man who wishes to feel independent prefers to ask for what he wants just when he wants it, and pay for it from his own pocket.

-"""SSinw DocfSHTB.—Every capitalist ef a town onght to use hiS' means in stimulating some wealth producing industry. The man who invests his nwney :itt an establishment that mak& plows, threshers, mowers, woolen goods, etc., is a local benefactor .- There is bo mistake abot him. All such enterprises naturally stimulate the growth and add to the wealth of the communities in whicli ihey are established. Every dollar kept at home has its advantages, more or less, for every citizen. Tlie most wealthy and prosperoHB cities and towns in the world are those that work on the co-operative plan—that aim to build up their o#n merchants, manufacturers, mechanics, laborers, etc.Every cent diverted from home consumers, lessens to a greater or less extent, tlie ability of home men to meet their liabilities.

We learn that arrangements will soon be made upon an extensive scale to manu facture salt from the water.

in regular and' prompt attendance daily so that the general and personal interest of the school may. he maintained.

The teacher should-put lorth $y£ry effort to secure a faithful attendance, and may with' propriety resort' to a stratagem to attain to this.object, as the success of the teacher and ihe..school depends almost wholly upon the presence of the pu» pils- ,, 4. An intense interest in the work of the school depends very largely upon the last named topic. For, without regular attendance, pupils lose the connection and elation of the lessons, Without which it is impossible to preserve the interest. 5. The moral inftnence of the school should be such as: will pipmote tendency on the part of the pupils, At. all times, to good .habits.

The Teacher and Parents—Mutual good feeling war: shown' ta be nepe^st between teacher and jiarents. Tins may be secured by visiting the parents, talk ing in affri&idky aianne*f_ Of die lifterests and welfare of their children, and thereby enlist their sympathies and co operalion.

The Teacher ami the Pupils.— I. The most perfect sympathy and good feeling should exist between the teacher and pupils, for withou| this neither manifest or feel so much intertst afrOWierwise.

Confidence in the ability of the

teacher on the part of .the pupils, and in the honesty of the pupils on the part of the teacher is very important.' /The teacher should consider no work too laborious to be performed for thepupil. and the pupil should regard no act Of kindness toward the teacher, as too much of a sacrifice.

Instruction in Grammar and Geogra phy was continued this morning before recess and Beading and Grammar after recess.: The time was very pleasantly and profitably spent, all seeming to be highly pleased with the exercises.

There being about twenty-five minutes time remaining after the class exercises, it was devoted to speaking by Prof. Wiley and Mr. J. N. Shumard. 'Mr. Shumard made a short speech up on the subject, "Is it policy to give prizes in school? Why? In his conclusion he thinks that if prizes are given, it is best to place them in the reach of each pupil, otherwise some are likely to give up the contest.

Mr. Wiley questioned the teachers in regard to school, law of Indiana, and ex* patiated upon the'subject briefly- ...

Adjourned to meet at two o'clock. JLFTERN OON. The Institute convened at the appointed time. Instruction in Mental Arithmetic are next considered and the subject of Geography was continued. Mr. Valentine presided over the class in Ment&l and Mr. GoraSfT&vei' the Geography fettgE Considerable interest manifested ia both classes, anf we think the time was pleasantly and profitably spent. •The classes were changed, one taking Beading, the other continued Practical Arithmetic.

The teachers enjoyed a pleasant recess of a quarter of an hoar, after which the time was occupied by speeches and-essays upon the question, "Should a scholar-be punished for not studying?''' Two essays were read on the subject of "How to organize a school?" Various ideas and theories were advanced which all possess their merits.

The teacher should be governed by circumstances in such cases. The motive of the pupils idleness or disobedience should determine the treatment in all cases. First,.the child should be informed and made to understand that a natural punishment will inevitably follow idleness, as it is a violation of God's law as well as the law of the school room.

The work for to-morrow was_ partially designated, and the meeting adjourned to nceet at the usual hour in the morning.

Look out to-day for ther- opening of Miller & Cox's new. clothing store, 2»o. 156 north side Main, between Fifth and Sixth streets, with entire new stock of ready made clothing, Gents' furnishing goods, Ac and prices to snit the time#.

Gardner sn« war.

TfeaKE' HAOTE, Aug. 30,1871.

MF. EDITOR:—The

article in this

morning's "Express," from the' Washington City "Chronicle," relating to T. W. Gardner of this city, and W- H. Gray, the 'lamp burner man, was written, doubtless, by Gray's attorneys for the express purpose of prejudicing the public against fiardnar and damaging his case. If that article embraced all the facts in the case, it would npt only. damage Gardner, but ouglit to damfi him. With no other facts before the court than those stated in that article, Judge Humphries, would be subject to just censure if he did not order Gray discharged—for the reason that the charge of perjury was not sustained by the evidence. But there are many other facts, and as I am familiar with the facts and merits of the case, will state a few of them, as well for the public information^ as in defence of Gardner, who is notliere to defend himself.

Gray was arrested in Washington on complaint of Gardner, supported by affidavits of S. R. Freeman and others of this city, who were knowing to the fact that the improvement was Gardner's, While in confinement X5r%y had a beaming on a writ of halmgcmpm before Judge Fisher. On that hearing, theup facts appeared in evidence: That T. Sf. Gardner

Sullivan "Unio4" t^atesFtjia|

digging a well near the line of Sullivan and Greene counties, northeast of Sulli-! van, a few days ago, a Jjed of the, hest iron ore was dug-into. The ore ia4iai3 to be equal to Missouri Iron Mpuntain ore. The beci is five feet thick at the point touched.

w%S (lie drigiaa^tn- Sod jnventor of cerjajn valuable improvements in lamp burners, and that he made a model of his said improvement in- this city, with intent to patent it: that Wt-H. Gray, after testing and comparing Gardner's improvement in contrary with the Lupton burner* (which Gray tilled his twtf) and asking several friends present as to the. relative merits of the two improvements, his or Gardner's, and being answered that Gardner's,by far the superior, aid to which Gray then and there alsooonfessed, he thereupon offered Gardner j£l,600 fox the use of his improvement in connection with the Lupton Burner,: in which he (Gray) held an interest, and also t'o be at the expense of getting it patented.^ To this Gardner assented, and Gfay sh'oVtly: after drew an instrument in writing purporting to embody this agreement, and handed it to Gardner to this Gardner objected, on the ground that it did not name him as the inveiitor, and in not confining its use by Gray to the Lupton burner only. Gray replied that he wonld go with Gardner to some attorney tfnd have the papers drawn satisfactorily to Gardner, and agreed ...to go the next day. Instead*^cWrfBS£- ha went to St, Louis, and by stealth taking Gardner's model. After his arrival at St. Louis a correspondence^ ensued,.in which^ Gray protested'' his goiid faithj^roBnisnng to perfect the contract on his return, in a Jew days, to this city, and.assuring Gardner that all would be frighij ind that he might regard the contract as already ex

on?ofhis Iefiers/j^lfMbm^m^',d^ard ner spoke of "the improvement," and he may have-written,' (and probably did, as stated in the "Chronicle,)—"your improvement." These two letters constituted all the evidence on the habeas cor pus trial before Judge Humphries, and on which Gray was released.

It further appeared in evidence before Judge Fisher, as I am informed, that Gray had, to divers person^ and: at diyer^ tiuiear-.before, Aud^iUM^tbe-iBSua&ee.to him of letters.patent on,this improvement, acknowledged that said invention orjimproyement was Gardner's, but. that "He" Had manage*! to jXjuiet^Gardn^r. who was an easy going fellow, atfcf'he had paid him $1,500 for his improvement, and that the patejQt was now ail his. (Gra,y'sJ|,pwn.

Thus it became evident to Judge Fisher that Gardner was the inventor ofsaid improvements, and that Gray had per jured himself by knowingly swearing to a lie. Uridet1 this state of facts. Judge Fisher saw no reason for Gray's discharge, arid accordingly lield hiin gnder f2^)00 bonds to appear for trial, on the 5th of September next.

Gray remained in jail nntil August 24th, at which date-he had another hearing on' a writ of habeas corpus before Judge Ham ph ries, in. the absence of the witnesses in the former trial, and no evidence appearing except Gardner's two Ietter8 to Gnay,- (above^alluded to,) the Judge ordered him dismissed.

In conclusion, I will merelrstate that the

end

is not yet.
