The Brush Electric Light and Power Company, by the secretary, presented the following: To the Honorable Mayor and Common

Commit GF.NTLK.MAX—ON Soyember 1, 188.1,

there was presented to your honorable body, a proposition from the Brush Electric Light and Power Company, of this city, to light this city with the eleptric light.

Your atterjti.qn to the above fact has not- been called fer ftp pijrpQse

l\is"

cussing the subsequent Action of the council on. the subject, b!)k ?or t'jc purpose of bringing before you florae facts and figures in connection with the above proposition and the proposition of the gas company of the 22nd of March, 1882.

These figures are taken from the boojes of th,e city treasurer,- and are presumably .corj'.e'ct. Th,c cost of light for the city from tjip 14th of April, 18S2, including repairs, was" $14,00J.22. This was the post "for street lighting, only. Now the gas ponjpany ma4e two inopositions to you, one W seventeen nights per lunal month, And one for every night in the month

Take the first proposition of seventeen nights, and the cost, lighting all gas

Their proposition is based pn three years' contract. Let us odd til® cost of gas and repairs for the two years following Cost of gas first year, seventeen nights per month 820,808 -12 Two years, at 315,518 A2 each year... 31,0^7 84 Toti^ cost for three years, seven-

The second proposition of the gas company results even more favorably to the electric light company's propo sition.

The gas company propose to light every night in the month: 611 posts at 827 per post 817,388 CO Uopalrs, same as last year 1,350 20 To which add the cost of 300 new lamp post and hoods at 312.50 each..: 3,862 50 And cost of service pipe, estimated at $3 per post 927 00

Total cost of gaslight for three years 801,000 20 Dlectrlc light for three years at 812,000 per annum, overy night per month 30,000 00

Rhowlngaclear savingtothecity of 825, 000.20 by adopting the Dloctrlc light. We would beg of your honorable body tb take into consideration the fact'that the Klectric Light Company do not ask the city to invest a single dollar until a definite result has been obtained, said result being so far in excess of that now obtained, even in the gas lit district, as to bear us out in the claim that we will furnish a vastly superior illumination, and as the above figures showj at a much less cost to the city.

Our original proposition was based upon a contract for live years, but inasmuch as the Gas Company has offered to contract for a term of three years, which they can well afford to do, having all their plant in and paid for. we will make the contract for either three or five years, at the option ef the Council.

As our proposition was made to vour honorable body some five months before that of the Gas Company, we would respectfully ask that you give our proposition prior consideration, and that you take action in the matter at your earliest convenience.

Respectfully, W. A. "CRAWFORD,

Secretary Terre Haute Brush Electric Light and Power Company. On motion of Kolsem, the communi cation was referred to the committee on gas and the committee on streets and bridges. I

Collector Hinsball Wants Bids for the New Government Site. To the Editor of the Express:

TERKE HAUTE, Sept. 5,1882.

I have received official notice that the act of July 7, 1882,. authorizes the purchase of a site and the construction of a public building in this city. The limit of cost of site and building is placed at $150,000, and the sum of $75,000 is appropriated.

As no act ceding jurisdiction to the United States over land that may be purchased as a site for the proposed building has been passed by the Legislature, and as no money can be expended until the passage of such an act, the department is prevented from selecting site or making" contracts for the purchase of property for this purpose. 1 have, however, been instructed to obtain proposals -for the sale of such property in this city as may be deemed suitable for the proposed building, and to forward them to the department with recommendation. In pursuance of these instructions I shall be glad to receive and will promptly forward proposals.

Parties submitting proposals should understand that they cannot be accepted until the passage of the act of cession. It is presumed that such an act viU be passed by the Legislature early in its next session.

A corner lot is preferred. If a corner lot, the dimensions should not be less than 120 by 1G0 feet if not a corner lot, the dimensions should be 130 by 200 feet, the 200 feet to be street frontage. Respectfully,

D. W. MINSIIALI,, Collector.

AMUSEMENTS.

-ii Minnie Maddern.

There was a fair attendance at the Opera House last evening, the occasion of the presentation of the specialty play, "Fogg's Ferry," which was written for Minnie Maddern, who aspires to renown in the school established by Lotta and Maggie Mitchell. Miss Maddern :is deserving, perhaps, of a bettej- plfvy than "Fogg's Ferry," certainly neither she or the play can be called a remarkable success. The entertainment of last evening oscaped being tiresome, and was on the whole deserving of an audience. The company was equal to the demands of the piece, and of course can only be noticed in that regard.

B. li. F. Convention.

The first session of the annual convention of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen will be public, and the executive committee has extended the following invitation to our citizens to attend:

TKRRE HAUTE, Sept. §, 1882,

On l^hilf'of vho Brotherhood of Lo coiffotive Firemen, the executive committee hereby extends, an invitation to the public in general to attend the opening exercises, to be held in the Opera House, next Monday, September 11, at 2 p. m., sharp.

—are requested t'p call at Gulick & Berrv's drug store and get a trial battle of Dr. King's New Discovery for consumption for 10 cents, which will show you what a regular dollar size bottle will do.

Fortunes for Farmers and Mechanics. Thousands of dollars can be saved by using proper judgment in takin care of the health of yourself and family. If you are bilious, have sallow complexion, poor appetite, low and depressed spirits, and generally debilitated, do not delay a moment, but go at once and procure a bottle of those wonderful Electric Bitters, which never fail to cure, and that for the trifling sum of fifty cents.—Tribune. Sold by Gulick & Berry.

Advice to Consumptives.

On the appearance of the first symptoms—as general debility, loss of appetite, pallor, chilly sensations, followed by night-sweats and cough—prompt measures for relief should be taken. Consumption is scrofulous disease of the lungstherefore use the great anti-scrofula, or blood-purifier and strength-restorer,—Dr. Tierce's "Golien Medical Discovery." Superior to Cod liver oil as a nutritive, and unsurpassed as a pectoral. For weak lungs' spitting of blood, and kindred aflections, it has no equal. Sold by druggists the world over. For Dr. Pierce's pamphlet on consumption, send two stamps to "World's Dispensarv Medical Associotion, Buffalo, N. V.

For fine merchant tailoring go to W. C. Allen, 638 Main street. He is the boss cutter.

Within a few days everyone's mind has been turned to thoughts of fall clothing. Mr. J. P. Brennan took time by the forelock and has on hand a complete stock of new goods, in nobby suitings, fine pantaloons, cassimeres, &c. A call at his place, 551 Main street, will however be more convincing than anything that can be said.

Summer Complaint.

For children teething, summer complaint, flux or cholera infantum, Brunker's Carminative Balsam is kinjj. of all remedies it defies all competition. For adults in dysentery, flux, cramp colic, congestion, neuralgia of stomach or Asiatic cholera its reputation is unphrUleled." Ten thousand bottles sola in Indianapolis in 1881.
