The Connell and Aldermaoic Board held a speetal meeting yesterday evenine, and approved Hiram Miller’s bond, as custodian of the elty funds. The prospective police change has given an impetus to the gambling fraternity, and it is said that on New Year’s several ngw rooms will be christened.

The Journal to-day gives a comprehensive review of the city's business during the past year. It finds that there has been a slight growth and a considerable improvement in the present condition ot business. The volume of trade has been a trifle larger than in 1884, but the profifwftlve fallen short appreciably. Every gain has become permanent and the growth is substantial and uninflatedThe depression in values has not affected the general prosperity of the city. The cost of living has been reduced 10 per cent., but the wages ot mechanics are as high as they were three years ago. In 1884 there were 347 manufacturing establishments in the city, employ ing 10,112 persons, of all ages and sexes, who were paid in wages $5,207,000. la 1885 there have been 467 establishments, an increase of 120, employing 11,786 persons, whose wages aggregated $5,808,080. A larger surplus has gone into building associations, and 160 more dwelling houses have been built in 1885 than in 1884, although the aggregate cost has been less. The total namoerof bnilding permits for eleven months iu 1886 were 013, and the estimated expenditure upon these was $006,850. During all of 1884 only 786 buildings were erected, costing $9t7v585. The real estate transfers in 1886 have fallen a little short of previous years. In 1883 the sales amounted to $o,262,525; in 1884 to $5,424,770; in 1885, to $4,901,507. During 1884 eleven banks did a business ot $73,213,13^; in 1885 eight banks did a business of $66,607,621. The clcaranofs in 1885 fell short of 1884 by $6,605,518, but this is explained by the manager ot the Clearing House, who says that many settlements are now made in cash, whereas in 1884 the paper passed through.the banks. The value of the raw materials used by the mannfecturing establishments during the year was $19,665,825; value of the manufactured products, $30,552,400, against $17^590,000, and $27,341,000 respectively in 1884.

The first union service under the auspices of the Indianapolis Ministerial Association was held last night at the First Baptist Church. The meeting was conducted by Rev. E. A. Bradley, of Christ Episcopal Church. After the voluntary, Scripture reading and responsive prayer, Mr. Bradley aet forth the purposes of the association and its services. The ministers’ hearts’ desire was that the people might be saved. The division ot the churches and the coldness of Christians are hindrances to the regeneration of the city. Rev. James McLeod, of the Second Presbyterian Church, spoke of the need of a revival. The world pays but little respect to sacred things, he held. All the means of grace provided for sinners seem to be ignored by the multitude. We need a revival that will not only make men religious, but that will keep them religious; a revival that will not only lead men to believe a sound creed, but to live a holy life; a revival that will not exhaust itself in saying, “Lord! Lord!” and then forget to do what God says; a revival that will sweeten our homes, character and press, purify our politics, promote temperance, cleanse our business from roguery and rottenuess; a revival that will induce Christians to live consistent lives and that will induce sinners to
come to Christ.

Both men came to the eitv, one to prosecute and the other to surrender to the authorities, and upon being arraigned before the Mayor. Rogers waived examination on a charge of assault, and gave bond.

In an Indictment tor injuring property, the charge was that the defendant did ‘•unlawfully and maliciously injure a certain milch cow, the property of Ira Bevil, then and there beiug, and there unlawfully and maliciously running, striking and iieating said cow with a whip, stick, club, etc.” The fair import of this charge is that the defendant injured the cow by nuuicioua.y striking and beating "said cow.” It Is not necessary to charge in the affidavit the value of the cow, but only the amount of damage doiit* to her.
