PROP^ISBOR GAY delivered HIS lecture on the "Great Fires pf the World," last night, at Dowling Hall, to an audience of about forty persons. ID this sge of newspapers, a lecturer must be a person of great reputation, or the subject one of absorbing interest to attract attention, People prefer purchasing a news'paper for five ccnts, ijhieh thsy can read qaietlyat their homes or offices, rather than pay ten times that amount to hear a lecture—and in making this remark ire insinuate nothing derogatory to Prof. Gay or his lecture on the "Great Firea." ..

yesterday, but beyond furnishing us this unsatisfaclorv item, the session need not have been held.

KISSNER, at the Palace of Music, is giving away, on application, copies of the December number of the "Silver Tongue," a musical monthly. This number contains four beautiful piedfes of Christmas Music, besides an interesting selection of reading matter.

Is THHRE any provision in the school regulations compelling the children to rush to the po3toffice immediately after school hours, and remain until dark, to the great inconvenience of people having business there? We refer this conundrum to the Superintendent, teachers, and-the children, too.

THE Congregational Sunday School has just started out in the prepaiation of a novel entertainment on one evening during the Holidays. Among other features will ke an old time New England Kitchen, the publication of a paper, etc. Further mention will be made as the time approaches and the programme is completed.

WE call attention to the sale of fine stock at the residence of Samuel W. McDonald, to-day at eleven o'clock. It is proper to say that tho stock offered for sale is none of it that of Mr. McDonald's, but belongs to Mr. Albert S. Andrews. The stock, consisting of horses, cows, etc., is very fine, and will no doubt attract many bidders.'

NEW MANUFACTORY.—August Hoberg & Co., have taken the initial stepa toward the establishment of stocking manufactory on a large scale. They have already one machine in operation,and immediately after the Holidays they will have eight or ten machines at work. We wish the enterprise the most complete success that the energetic proprietors anticipate.

Tns firm of Austin, Shryer & Co. as may be seen by notice elsewhere, will be dissolved-on the 15th prox., by mutual consent, Mr. J. G. Shryer retiring, for tho purpose of engaging in ofher business. A. G. Austin & Co. will continue the business at the old stand-

IT IS worth while for "everybody, especially for those who may not have a full supply of blankets for the coming winter, to know the value of newspapers for coverings. On a cold night, if two or three newspapers be spread upon the bed beneath the outside covering, the occupant of the bed will perceive a marked: increase of warmth without any perceptible increase in the weight of bedding. So, also, if a spread newspaper be placed over the chest before the overcoat be buttoned up, it will be found a great protection against penetrating wind and cold.

SUNDAY SERVICES.—Rev. W. A. W. May bin, of New York City, will officiate at St. Stephens Church, Sunday, at 10 A. M., and 7. p. M.

CORRESPONDENCE.

RF.V. THOMAS R. AUSTIN, D. D. Dear Sir: The undersigned Masters of Masonic Lodgtes of this city, believing that a lecture by you, on the history of Solomon's Temple. and Free Masonry generally, would be of interest to the public, and to the members of the craft, respectfully invite you to deliver such a lecture at an early date that may suit your convenience, and to accept the proceeds thereof as a tribute to the zeal and efficiency of your clerical and Masonic labors in our city.

DEAR BRETHREN-: In reply *o your kind invitation to deliver a lecture on "King Solomon's Tenrple," this day received, I gratefully appreciate your kindness in endeavoring to assist me in this manner, and fell that you add to the many Courtesies which I Jmd received from the Royal craft of Terre Halite, while I have been a resident in your city.

VERDICT OF THE JURY.—TheCoroner's Jury, selected to investigate the cause of the railroad accident at St. Marys, by which the Fireman, Daniel Griffin, was killed, failed to agree, and was discharged. On recovering the body of John O'Neil, on Thursday evening, Coroner Gertsmey er empannelled another jury, and the following verdict was returned:

We, the undersigned, jurors, empanneled and sworn on the 14th day of December, A. D-, 1871, by Charles Gertsmeyer, Coroner of Vigo county, to inquire and true presentment make how, in what manner and by whom John or Philip O'Neil, whose body was found dead on the Indianapolis and St. Louis Railroad, in Sugar Creek township, in Vigo county, on the 14ih day of December, A. D. 1871, came to his death, after having heard the evidence and examined the body, we find that the deceased came to bis death from injuries received by a railroad accident, which occurred to a freight train on the Indianapolis and St. Louis Railroad, on the 13th day of December, 1872 and we, the jury, do further find that the employes of the road are in no way concerned for the occur« rence of said accident, having done their duty to the best of their ability. And we, the jury, do still further find that the brakes on said train were deficient, and that the railroad company should be censured for permitting trains to run over their road insufficiently supplied with brakes. We also find that the distance for flagging should be very materially increased on a down grade road. Given under oar hands at the time and place of said inquisition above mentioned.

ESQ. SMITH.—The following froin the "Journal" receives our hearty endorsement:

We dropped into the office of our friend Zenas Smith, Esq., a few days since and found him full of business. He has served for a number of years as Justice of the Peace for Harrison township, and his conduct has met the approbation of all who have had business before him. His keen perception of the law, and his high sens* of justice, have marked all his decisions. He is a good man and a model Justice of the Peace. May he long live to administer justice to our people.

ELI BROWN, one of the men supposed to be implicated in the robbery of the Treasurer's safe at this place, in April, 1870, was released on bail, at Indianapolis, by the United States authorities, on Tuesday, who had him under arrest for counterfeiting, and was immediately arrested by the Deputy Sheriff of Marion county, on a warrant from this county, andbrought here aud lodged in jail on yesterday morning. His trial will probably come off at the January term of the Common Pleas Court. B. E & M. G. Rhoads, of this place, and Mr. Van Horn, of Bloomington, this State, are the attorneys for the defendant. Mr. Van Horn is a brother-in law of the defendant.— Newport Hoosier State.

THE

scarcity of water is becoming a

serious matter in many localities. But few wells in this place furnish water enough for cnlminary purposes. For washing nearly all our citizens haul water from the river. Farmers drive their stock a distance to the river. In some localities the people are obliged to haul a distance of three miles. The country has probably never experienced such a protracted drouth in the Call and winter.— jBoiclitiff Green Archircs.

First Out, as Usual.—The iEumwas the first to pay out of her Rockville fire.

Boots and Shoes form quite a feature of childrens' wear and papa's swear at this season of the year. The children wear them out so fast, especially if of a poor article, and some papa's swear at this and the high prices of some dealers, which leads us to remark that a long felt want has been supplied by the opening of a great bankrupt Sale of $20,000 worth of Boots and Shoes, at No. 116 Main street, and at such low prices as to be perfectly astounding. The store was thronged all day yesterday. Here are some of the prices at which, they are selling: Men's Calf Boots..•••• .$2 75 Women's Shoes. 1 00 Boys'Shoes 1 00 Men's Rubbers.. 50 Women's Rubbers 50 Children's Shoes 15
