TnE CHARITY FAIR at Dowling Hall closed at a l^e, hou^l^st night withthe most gratifying result, and the ladies of the Aid Society hare' the satisfaction of knowing that their arduous labors in preparing the entertainment have not been in vain. The lunch tables yesterday afternoon were well patronized, and last evening the Hall and adjoining supper room were well filled, while the crowds continually about the booths and tables looked as though the articles, useful and ornamental, were meeting irith eager purchasers.

The ladies were all at their posts, attending to their duties faithfully, and all seemed pleased with the situation.

During the evening a number of beautiful tableaux were presented from the stage, while Miss Kellogg and Mrs. Carrington kindly favored the audience with several of vocal gems. Amid the unavoidable noise and confusion, they sang at great disadvantage, but their efforts were "none the less acceptable.

Taken altogether ihe Charity Fair of the Ladies' Aid Society has been a fine success, and will no doubt realize a handsome. sum for the proposed, objec^,—the relief of the needy poor.

DEATH FROM LOCKJAW.—We are pained to learn the death of George Hamill, son of Samuel R. Hamill, who died at his father's residence in Sullivan, on Monday afternoon, from lockjaw caused by an accidental gunshot wound in the hand, received some ten days since while out hunting. The unfortunate young man received the very best medi cal attendance but without avail. He was about nineteen years of age, and a yonth of much promise.

RAILROAD ELECTION. The County Commissioners on yesterday ordered that an election be held in this, Harrison township, on the 22d day of January, to allow the voters of the township to decide upon a special tax for raising the proposed $150,000 in aid of the Terrer Haute and Southwestern Railroad.,

From a. Jtagged Boy lo a Princely Merchant and Railroad President

In the year 1840 a grand barbecue and pnblic meeting was held at the Tippecanoe battle ground, at which some of the most famous orators in the country, Henry Clay, we believe, among the nnm-berr*eje-aqpMBced tospeafc*

their way there to participate in the mealing. Among the number was a ragged boy from Browstown, Jackson county. There being but one piece of railroad in the State at the time, travel on foot or by delay of stages was the-only means oft transportation. This boy determined to go to the meeting arid having no money to pay fare on stages, left his hope on foot. He traveled until he reached a point near where Go*port1

when he was overtaken on the road' by.a gentleman from Terre Haute on horseback. The name of this .gentleman our informant.has forgotten, but. knows that he was a merchant in tliat place, then a small village. A conversation ensued between the boy and the merchant,_the latter inquiring whhher. he was going. The ragged urchin replied, "Goidg to the meeting at Tippecanoe." "D.v jrpu know how far it is, my boy?" "No," replied the boy, "but I am going." Th'e boy was invited to get up-behinaand ride awhile with the ^merchant, which invitation he gladly accepted. While riding alotig, the merchant discovered that his companion had energy and determination that would one day make a man o/ hi*n. He tol'l the boy that iiT he! Woufd go-to Terre Haute wi^h him be. would give him employment in his store. The boy reluctantly gave up the idea of going |o Tippecanoe, and accepted the offer. .V

Bleaching Terre Haute, the boy was put in the merchant's store as an errand boy, which position he filled with prompt-' net* and energy, gaining the confidence and respect of his enrplo^eh, ,He waaf rabidly advanced from ene position to the other, now he stands in the front rank of the merchants of Tirre Haute., This ragged boy is now President of tha Terre Haute and New Albany Railroad, acd his name is Wm. JWell.

The above we find in thfe^New Albany "Ledger." The stateiqent Js characteristic of our townsman, but it may take away somewhat of- the romance, to state that, although he did start from Browns* town, Jackson isouitty—and it wa9 a good place to emigrate frora—it was not for the "meeting at Tippecanoe," but to "seek his fortune." And he succeeded.

"HEALTH and its Conditions," is the title of an interesting little book on our table from the publishing bouse of G. P. Putnam & Sons, New York, written by James Hinton, iuthor of "Life ini Nitare," and "Man and his Dwelling Place." The character of the work is briefly stated in the table of contents. "Health food, what it h, what it does, how to take it the nerves the brain and its use nursing as a profession seeing with the eyes shut the fairy land of science, a meditation, on skeletons, and some other things."
