SECOND EDITION.

TWO EDITIONS

Of this Paper are published. The FIRST EDITION, on Friday Evening, has a large circulation among farmers and others living outside of tbe city. The SECOND EDITION, on Saturday Evening, goes Into tbe bands of nearly every reading person In tbe city. Every Week's Issue Is, in fact,

TWO NEWSPAPERS,

In wblcb all Advertisements appear for ONE CHARGE.

OUR readers will remember the genuinely patbetio *story printed in The Mail several weeks ago, entitled "Surly Tim'a Trouble." Another story of much power, by the same autbort will be lound on tbe sixth page of this week's Mail.

THE Expositions at Cincinnati and Louisville were opened this week and are now in full blast. Both are well worth a visit this month. That at Cincinnati, from the reports already at hand, is no doubt tbe finest show ever witnessed on this continent

THE election in Vermont on Tuesday does not show much change in the relative position of parites. The Republican majority will be about 26,000, a gain on the yote of 1870. when the Republican majority was 21,309. Tbe tbe test vote for comparison is that of 1868, on the State election immediately preceding the last Presidential election. The Republican maiority for governor in Vermont in 1868 was 27,326, and Grant's majority was 32,122.

ANDREW JOHNSON wants to go to Congress very badly and he may get there. If he does he will be the only ex-President, with the exception of John Quincy Adams,who has ever condescended to take a seat in Congress. Most Presidents, if not re-elected, are content to quietly sink from public notice—at least they do so. Not so with Andy. He is conducting his canvas in a lively manner down in Tennessee, where ho manages to draw a considerable number of people together whenever he speaks, and these unfortunate people are compelled to listen Tfbr three mortal hours in succession to the words of constitunal wisdom which fall from his lips.

THE Louisville Convention is over and lias little show for this week's work. A thorough democratic platform of principles was adopted and Charles O'Connor and John Quincy Adams wero nominated for President and Vice President. Tbe work seemed about at an end when a dispatch came from O'Connor positively declining the nomination. On receipt of the news the Convention became somewhat excited and was about to nominate somo other man when John Quincy Adams put in a dispatch to the effect that he could not accept a position on the ticket unless O'Connor remained at the head. So the convention, after throe days session adjourned, resolved to stick to their original candidates, and voto for them. We presume thoy will be allowed the privilege of resigning if elected in Novetnbor Tho convention was largely attended. There was a good deal of "honesty, sincerity and bad purpose," as a gentleman remarked last evening, but there was a great lack of brains. The Journal ot this city, which still refuses to support Greeley, said yesterday morning: fu'% ••Under this state of affairs, wo don't see that the straigbout Democrats have anything to hope for in the result of the Louisville meeting. To be sure the platform of principles is Democratic —thoroughly—and a vast improvement on tbe Cincinnati-Baltimore affair, but unless we have a sound candidate, adhering to and upholding our principles, of what practical benefit will It be for Democrats to make a sealous canvass under such disadvantageous circumstnces?

NEW BELIOIOUSSECT. A new religious community is now attracting considerable attention in Iowa, where its members, to the number of fifteen hundred, are settled. They have purchased about thirty thousand acres of land on the Rock Island and Pacific Railroad, and have erected several mills and manufactories, which they oarry on themselves. They call themselves "Amaclans,"and are Germsn without exception. All property is held in common, and the affairs of the society are managed by fifteen trustees, or fathers, as they are called. Each person is allowed to draw a oertaln'amount from tbe oo-op-erative store yearly, and no member is given any wages or any money for personal expenses. Meetings are held every day for religious services. In addition to the farming land already mentioned, the society own large flour and woolen mills on tbe Des Moines River. They manufacture a fine quality yarns and flannel in oolora, whieh sUnd high in the market. The Amanians are noted for their honesty and fkir dealing, and are much respected by their neighbors. Marriage is not encouraged, though It is not forbidden, and as the company is not receiving any new members, it will probably in time die oat.

TERRE-HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL.

FORKS OR FINQERSt The other day we heard quite an animated discussion as to whether green corn should be eaten from the cob with tbe fingers or should be cat off the cob and oonveyef to the month with a fork. The question of convenience was at once conceded in favor of tbe fingers, but was it genteelT The same Important question extends to the method of picking chicken bones. Both of these articles offer every inducement to the digitals, being so singularly inappropriate to the knife and fork that tbe fingers fairly ache to clutch them. Shall this yearning of humanity be yielded to, or shall science step calmly in and impale the fowl npon its gleaming steel, and the golden grains upon the adamantine utensil? This is the question which excites the fashionable mind.

The subject cannot be easily dismissed. To say that fingers were made before forks does not fully satisfy the mature intellect of the adult inquirer. As a bald matter-of-fact, this statement is indisputable, but it does not convey coEviction to an impartial mind it does not satisfy the cravings for knowledge on this great problem.

A foreign writer has said that the most fearful sight in America is a buxnm Western girl at a dinner table, banging on by her teeth to a corn-cob on tbe other hand, one ot the most absurdly dainty sights is to see a lady fussily cutting the corn off with a knife. It should be remembered that much of the succulence of the corn exists in the cob, and that the grains when cut off, lose much of their sweetness. This important argument does not apply to chicken bones, however.

Altogether, tbe cob and bone question may be settled In individual cases, according to personal predilection, People who are so very fearful ot using their fingers to eat with, thereby necessarily imply that their fingers are usually too dirty to use for this purpose. They forget that on this point, they are quite at the mercy of the kitchen-girl or the colored cook, whose hands are in half the food we eat. Is there not somewhere a proverb about being more nice than wise

YOU, WILLIAM HENRY!" William Henry Smith is the General Agent of the Western Associated Press. Miss Matilda Fletcher is btumping tbe States for Grant. She will shortly appear in this city, and we are told that she Is worth hearing. "William Henry" has during this campaign burdened the telegraphic wires with political speeches from all sorts of people, but Matilda Fletcher can't come in, as appears from the following card OFFICE WESTERN ASSOCIATED PRESS.

CHICAGO, III., Sept. I. A CARD.

For two-or three weeks past the Assobiated Press has been advised daily of the oratorical triumphs of Matilda Fletcher on the hustings. As these reports, day after day, come couched in about the same language, I conclude that, although from different points of the compass, they are inspired by the same persons. However, that may be, they certainly never have been written or transmitted by any authorized agent ol tbe Associated Press, and I have invoked the aid of managers of telegraph offices in vain to suppress them. Tbe gentle Matilda is superior to all official regulations, which is altogether admirable, and might bo endurable, if she would prepay her dispatches, after the manner of George Francis Train. But as these dispatches invariably eome marked "collect," I am constrained to ask the assistance of tho local press, telegraph operators, enthusiastic young men throughout the country, and the public in general, in putting an end to such inflictions by telegraph, and lest our woman's rights friends construe this as aimed at their cause, I will add that it is hoped this card will convey a much needed bint to all over modest orators, whether cylindrical of bifurcate.

WILLIAM HENRY SMITH, General Ag«nt.

William Henry, whether you have just cause for complaint or not, ou have done a very wrong thing, and an act for which you should feel ashamod, In so using the tremendous power in your control—the telegraph and press combined—against a comparatively defenseless woman.

DIAMONDS IN ARIZONA J. H. Beadle, a former resident of Rockville, and well-known in this city, has this to say in regard to the wonderfal stories of diamonds in California fv

Since I catne eastward I find great excitement about diamond disooverieft tra the Puerce, in Arizona. I travelled directly through the reported diamond oountry, aa looated by toe San Francisco Company, and I think I can safely make oath there were no diamonds there. Turquoises and garnets there are in abundance every Indian has a pint or so. Occasionally a ruby, of a very common kind, is to be met with, and luinpe of fased quarts can be gathered by the bushel. The oountry has been open most of the time since 1850, and every year or so somo man imagined he found diamonds. Tbe officers from Fort Wingato prospected the entire region many years ago, with no results, and there have been parties there every summer slnoe the close of the Navsjoe war looking for diamonds. Tbe Spainards gathered bushels of curious stones there a hundred years ago, and found not a diamond among them. So common has this hunting been that the Indians look upon every new-comer as a dlamond-bnnter. My Navajoe companions, seeing I hsd nothing to trade, and was not a hunter, oould not be convlnoed that I was not looking for diamonds, and brought me every curious stone they could find. I could have brought out bushels of quarts-crystals, fused quarts, garnets, n»d stone of conglomerate rock and obsidian, but no d!am"nda. Now it seems to me reasonable to conclude that, witn all this hunting since 1850, If any diamonds were there they would have been discovered ere this. For this, and reasons too numerous to mention, from tbe lay of the country, etc., I say emphatically: "No diamonds."

YE OYSTER.

September is with us, ustiering in the reign of the dellescy, which, without the mystic in its orthography, if we credited the tradition as old as the Druids, would be utterly unfit to eat. Most lame and impotent conclusion! We are led to this austere reflection by a few sessonable remarks by an eastern paper on the natural history of the oyster. The extremely infantile oyster of a fortnight's growth, salth the hard-shell biographer, is not much bigger than a tair-siced pin's head at three months it is of the size of a split pea (why spilt in a year It will become as large as a cent, and at the ripe and mature age of four years, be, she or it is fit for the market and food for the Olympian gods. Nature has not been over bountiful in its gifts of external beauty to the oyster but it is a great bing. So thought Thackeray, when for tbe first time he pieced himself dexterously on the exterior of a dozen "Saddle Rocks" in New York. The same paper from which we get the above item ot natural history tells that Delmonico had been directed to procure the finest in tbe market for the epicurean palate of the gorgeous Cockney, who had always boasted of bis little* coppery. English oysters and who was to be astonished. He was. A dozen lay before him on the disli, fat, white, glistening like

California Koh-i-

noors in the rough. Thackeray looked on in undisguised astoundment. "How, how do you take them?" he hesitatingly half whispered. He was Informed. Delicately plunging bis fork into the fair flesh of the plumpest he raised it to bis longiug mouth with a look of most comically mixed hope and fear. It disappeared. He laid the lork gently on the table, sat quietly back, closed bis eyes and rested In supreme repose. "How do you feel after that asked his friend at length. "Feel, my dear boy ?—feel replied Thackeray, slowly and with thst magnificent glitter of ftin in his eyes which he invariably served up as sauce to his bon bons

I feel as if I had swallowed a baby." It was a grand compliment from a great man, and Thackery from that moment cottoned to the incomparable superioritv of Yankee bivalves.

KOSSUTH, who once had Hungary "on the brain," has been so relieved of the dangerous congestion, or likes retirement so well that he cannot be easily dragged into Hungarian politics. He was elected a representative to the Diet, but he declines, saying that the compromise of 1867 is "illegal, impolitic and dangerous, and he cannot lo*k upon it as the door through which he could return home from banishment." The fact is, Kossuth's banishment has been so long, and in such pleasant places, that he may well hesitate to go back. He writes from the charming little city of Turin, where exile is extremely comfortable. He was 70 years old last April, and he is wise in keeping out of the always suspicious and turbulent arena of Hungarian politics.

A RELIGIOUS contemporary has this week an article on summer dissipation, or in other words the character and tendencies of visits to the sea-side, which prompts the query. "What are we coming to It "deplores the contact of moral and religious people with the sensual and irreligious," and declares that "contagion of wickedness is brought annually from the sea-side to corrupt communities which had before been comparatively innocent." Seme pastors go so far as to say that nine months of hard labor and earnest pastoral work are necessary to repair the damages caused by three months ot summer dissipation.

THE Japan Herald, in an article respecting the Mikado, gives some interesting facts connected with his history. He was born in 1852 he assumed tho title of Prince in I860 he ascended tbe tbrane in 1868. By Japanese reckoning he is 21 years of age. It is claimed that bis pedigree can be traced back 125 generations, extending over a period of 2,000 years. If these statements are correct, the Japanese dynasty is the oldest upon the face of tbe globe. It is just double the age of the British kingdom. A

CORRESPONDENTS fro in the watering plaoes say that the season matrimonially has been a failure.

THE NEW YORK CIRCUS.—There is no question In regard to tbe excellence of Lent's fismous metropolitan exhibition^ which will visit Terre Haute on Tuesday, September 17th. Tbe features of tbe, entertainments are pronounced by the press of the esstern cities to be more novel, attractive and amusing than those of sny other travelling exhlbH tlon in America. The company is certainly a large one, and In it are some of the most brilliant stars of the circus arena. It is not necessary to particularize, as the bills and advertisements have so conspicuously displayed tho feats of the marvelous artists, that everybody in this vicinity must be familiar with their astonishing performances, but, from what we know of tbe reputation of tbe New York Circus, we can assure those who have a taste for daring deeds of equestrianism and extraordlnary exhibitions of gymnastic^ skill, thst they will find In this establishment an entertainment whieh will, be certain to afford abundant food for wonder, mirth end admiration, i,
