THE New York Sun says "Mr. Ileecher preached damnation squarely last Sunday.

OUR "Husks and Nubbins" gives us a very sensible and readable article this week on the "money muddle."

THE toothache is not to be sneered at. Tine other day a little girl in Des Moines, Iowa, died from the pain eaused.

"Mrsn and milk festivals" and "np-ple-buttor parties" are social evenLs frequently chronicled of late in Pennsylvania papers.

IN spite of the hard times the number of cigar smokers does not appear to di minish, nor does the demand for cigars of good brands lossen.

Oun exchanges come burdened with reports of highway robberies. No one should travel after dark unarmed, and when assaulted should aim well and let drivo.

THK Golden Ago has suspended. The material was sold by tho Sheriff and bought by the proprietor of the Nation. The paper will be consolidated with the Nation.

THEUK is a revival of the niilitarjspirit going on all over tho country. The reunion of Indianapolis soldiers at Indianapolis this week was an immense success.

AN organization has been formed in Boston, Mass., to bo known as the Railroad Praying Band. The band consists of railroad engineers,conductors, freight clerks, shop-men and agents.

WHENEVER a bank, a firm, 6tnilindividual fails, and an estimatoof tho assets made, it is always safe to cut tho estimate in two, and make up your mind that that v. ill bo about what tho creditors will realize.

THERE is but little left at the watering places now but the water, and that bubbles up and tumbles over and laughs and sings, as though it were happy at the departure of tho giddy things, and felt freo to rejoice with tho genii ol'the woods and fields atrsin.

WHEN you grumble at hard times and crippled industries Just cast your eyes over tho big water and look at France, with 123,000 industrial establishments', and giving work to about 1,800,000 men. At loast two-thirds of these are now letting a month's time and wages in order to drill for a futuro war.

THE Indianapolis Journal haschanged hands—Judge E. B. Martindale and Col. W. R. Holloway boing the new owners with K. W. Halford as managing editor. Wo are real glad to see Holloway aud Halfonl back upon that papor, aud shall expect a decided improvement in it« oolumt'.s.

Tnr. ignorance of foreigners Is something stiperb. Dumas has written an Atuerioan novel, in which a coon chases a couple of young United States lovers up a tree, and then tries to get them by gnawing through tho trunk. Dumas says tho Virginia coon is as largo as a yearling calf.

WHILE the editorial room of the Expros advocates greenbacks, the business partner is in favor of hard money, and it is said that over In tho Journal office the editor and his assistant are not in accord on this perplexing question— Col.

Hudson being in favor of Congress repealing tho Sherman biLl^fid^thero letting the matter drop.

FIVK years ago Coudactor McKlnney, of the Hartford A New Haven railroad, w*s given a thousand dollar biil by a sleepy passenger Tor fare. He took It Into the baggage car to change It, and upon returning the passenger denied having given It to hlui, claiming to have handed him a ticket McKinney put the money U» a savings bask, where it still remains. The story has often been told In the newspapers, yet no claimant has been discovered.

ELECTION* •roorred on Tuesday in Ohio, Iowa and Nebraska. Nebraska givw a Republican majority of about 10,000 and Iowa report* heavy Republican gains reaching probably a majority of 83,000. It was in OMo, bow«ver that the greatest intercut centered. A more hotly oonU*t*d eleoilon on an "off year" baa n4 been known in the history of the country. The first returns promised Hayes, the Republican candidate, a majority mt 10,000 to 15,000, and Republicans were jabUaai, but as the returns enow in from the smaller prectocte, cutting the minority down to 600 (en I* report**! at this writing— Thursday offering) the enthntOsam oooled.

BTBWART says that the merchant who reduces his advertising as a means of lessening his expenses, commits a serious error. In the process of retrenchment let your advertising be the last expense to bo reduced. We quote this uot to influence our advertisers, bnt out of pore reverence for Mr. Stewart's views. ____________

A HARTFORD man recently got apiece of tough meat lodged in the lower part of the esophagus, making breathing difficult and threatening inflammation, and was treated by Dr. Ellsworth of that city who killed a number of dogs, and with the gastric juice of their stom-ach-coatings, succeeded in dissolving the piece in the course of tho day.

JAMES LICK has settled upon Mount Hamilton in Santa Clam County as a desirable place to build his $800,000 observatory, which is to contain tho largest telescope in tho world, and has proposed to the supervisors of tho county to place tho building there, provided they will build a good road to the summit, offering to advance the county money for the work and take its bonds in payment. i-a,

A WHOLE lot of now motals aro found by the spoetrum to be existing in a gaseous state in tho atmosphere of tho sun. There are the vapors of hydrogen, potassium, sodium, rubidium, barium, strontium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, iron, manganese, colmlt, nickel, titanium, load, copper, cadmium, zinc, uranium, cerium, vanadium, and palladium, and how many others aro yet to be diseovered wo must leave to the imagination of our readers.

A SAN FRANCISCO correspondent, who seems to have been a close observer, has some interesting remarks upon the California physique. Adult emigrants, according to him, develop a tendency to obesity, while tho second generation are of larger frame, and als:- a larger proportion of adipose tissue. Baldness is common among men, whence, of course, consumptions are rare. Women liavo luxuriant locks, but poor complexions. Diseases of tho nervous system predominate over those of the digestive viscera, which he ascribes to tho universal use of spirituous stimulant*.

A$ angry letter never accomplishes the desired end, and an insolent wne harms none but tho writer. This Is true of all correspondence, nut mom especially when applied to oommanlcatlons of a business nature. In this department the true gectloman is easily recognized, and with hira, above all others is it gratifying to deal. His demands, which, if couched in other languago would bo rejected, aro often complied with, and whatever the business, there is satlsfacion in performing it. Wo find the foregoing in Rowell A Go's Reporter. It is worth remembering and practising toe.

NOTHING excels in wonder tho bridge system of the West, alt built up sinco the war. The Missouri 1* bridged at St. Charles (3,586 fret long,) Boonville, Karma* City, Leavenworth, Atchison St. Joseph (11,000,000) and Omaha. The cost of these bridges was about $11,000,000, or 18,000,000

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL,

A NEW YOKK journal says: The American newspaper reader demands of an editor that ho shall not give him news and discussions in heavy chunks, but so condensed and clarified that he shall be relieved of the necessity of wading through a treatise to get at a ffcet, or spending time on a dilated essay to get a bite at an argument. Right.

THE South Bend library and reading rooms have been largely improved, and the friends o| the institution had a little celebration tho other evening. The value of a well selected library toacommunity can uot be overestimated and it is of more general value in a small city than in a

there being fewer conflicting attractions for tho public.

Br.ioiiAM YorNo has come out strongly against the extravagance of the times, and especially against the expensivene#w of female dress. From the report published In a Salt Lake paper of a sermon recently delivered by him it would seem that the follies of fashion are as conspicuous and Its edicts as Implicitly obeyed among the young women of Moraiondom as among those of the ou'.-, side world. Brigbam enters his protest against the whole business. He says: it addsmo beauty to a lady, In my oj-lnion, to adorn her with line feathers. When I look at a woman I look at her fee*, which is composed of bcr foreheod, cheek, nose, month and chin, and I like to see It dean, her hair combed nest and nice, and h»»r eyes bright and sparklli g^ and if thev are so what do I care wLat she haa on her bead, or how or wluu materia* liA dress is made?

THERE'S a good deal of poison in a man if the Journal, published at Marietta, Georgia, is to be believed. That paper mentions the case of a man while picking up a bundle of straw and trash under bis arm, a ground rattlesnake, four feet long crawled out from it and fell to the ground at his feet. He at once placed his heel en the head of the snako and spit in its mouth. Shortly afterward the snake showed symptons of inactivity and sickness, and ho picked it np by its tail and carried it to the house and showed it to his wife, telling her he bad spit in its mouth and that it was poisoned. At the expiration of fifteen minutes the snake was dead. To further experiment, he came across a blowing adder (snake), which ejected from its mouth a yellowish liquid. Ho caught it and spit in its mouth, and it died. He caught another blowing, and, it refused to open its mouth. He spit upon a stick and rubbed tho spittle upon tho adder's noso, and it died. Afterward he came across a black snake, regarded as' not poisonous, and he caught it and spit in its mouth. Instead of the spittle killing the black snake, as it did the poisonous reptiles, it only made It stupidly sick, from which it recovered. Now if there are any considerable number of our readers that have a curiosity to prove that this tit for tat business is general between man and snakes, instead of being peculiar to this Georgia individual, we shall be glad to have them report results, but would snggest that in experimenting, it is best to consider that the snako has tho advantage, except the man is proficient in spitting at a mark at long range. If tho general l&et can be provon, thero may still be some use in tho world for tbo dry goods box loafers of our villages

FUN ERA Lti FROM Cli URCHES. This practice should bo abandoned, and will be in due time by all rightthinking people. As an exchange says, in which we coincide and adopt, "Funerals from churches are in bad taste and heartless. The spectacle, too, Is a ghastly ono of oxposing tho face of tho dead lying in the casket in front of the pulpit, while an army—composed of relatives, friends, acquaintances of a more or loss indifferent character, strangers, boors, and vulgar corpsogazers—walk in stately procession up ono aisle and down tho other, till tlic vast crowd, of both sexes and of all ages, from four-scoro to the little toddler of three, has viewed the corpse, and all have gono home to discuss-the whole subjoct at the.tea-table. Such a custom is not uncommon, but it is vulgar, it is hideous, it is ghastly. There is a right and proper fooling on tho part of intimate friends which leads to a desiro to take tho last fond look of tho clear, upturned doad faoo but to expose those features to tho gaping, vulgar crowd shows a lamentable want of feeling, and is a pandering to vulgar curiosity as roprohensible as it is utterly revolting.

AT1IE PUBLIC LIBRARY. Never in tho history of Terro Haute was there so good a prospect. A society is in proccss ol organization with a plan which is no longer an experiment, one which succeeds wherever it is employed in other cities. Ii is hoped that all classes of citizens will bo represented at the meeting lor election of officers which will be called next week probably on Thursday evening.

James Maurice Thompson, the Crawfordsville poet and author of "Hoosler Mosaics," will visit Terre Haute on the 19th Inst.

I notice the above Item in The Mail of last Saturday. I think ho should also be mentioned as author of "Three Woek* of Savage Life." That little production was a gem, and no author has given us sweeter glimpses of nature. It Is an addition to our literary treasures that should take high rank In tbe gallery of word-paintings, and marks Mr. Thompson as one of tbe master* of the English language.

AS TO THE EXTRA PAY*

Among soma bills that were referred at tbe last council meeting to be reported upon by the Judiciary Committee, were two from City Clerk Tolbert and MarehaL Schmidt, for certain expenses, to the amount of twenty or thirty dollars. However a decision may be given, allow me to suggest that I understand City Engineer Strout, who« salary is very moderate, baa during this year r«id out» about a hundred dollars on spe rial work, and now has an extra assistant employed recently on his own SftiittnL •Si A COMPLAINT.

WORK will be commenced on Monday upon that immense brewery, on north Seventh street.

A VEBY bad counterfeit on the fives tho First National Bank of Aurora, Indiana, is reported. Be on the lookout for it.

CAN-CAN troupes have made two applications for the Opera House and one for Dow ling Hall. The applioatlona were not answered.

PAPER IS preferable to straw beneath carpets, since it Is thinner, warmer and noiseless. A few hundred newspapers are on sale at The Mail offlco.

THE races this week appear to have been well conducted, but for some reason have not been a success financially. The attendanco has been meagre—nothing like what the Association anticipated. Tbo dishonest affair of last week, no doubt, had much to do with this result.

THE advertisement of Felsenheld A Jauriet last week, was put In type very hurriedly, and contained a number of errors. "Good Brash at 8£ cents" should have road "Good Crash." and they aro not selling "Bed Spreads" at 7 cents, as the types had it, but at 75 cents, which is a reduction from tho usual prlco of $1.25.

THE Terre Haute House, under tho management of Mr. George F. Ripley, is regaining its old time popularity. Its commodious office is made a placo of general resort every evening by the lead'ng men of the city. It seems like everybody goes there to see everybody, and there is appearand of hospitality and homo-like comfort all over tho houso that Is quite pleasing to tho guest and visitor.

INTERMENTS.—The following is a list of interments In the city oemetoxy since last report:

THE question exoroising the market houso committee at presont, is what kind of a pavement shall be placcd under the arcade and around the sidewalks of tho naw market house. Brick, flat, wold cost about 05 cents per square yard brick, edgeways, about $1.30 and Farnham's patent artificial stono, similar to that in front of George Ari old's jewelry store, $2.25 per yard, or 25 conts per square foot. Stone flagging would oost considerably more yet—perhaps double as much as the artificial stono^-,^

GENERAL GRANT'S old regiment, the 21st Ills., Is to hftvo a reunion at Paris, on the afternoon and evening of the 21st. The exercises will commence at two o'clock with welcome by the Mayor} Judge Steele will read a history of the regiment, and addresses will be made by Hon. Dick Oglesby and others. A social and banquet in the evening. There are some fifteen or twenty of the boys of that regiment In this vicinity, among them A. G. Austin, who was wounded five times In tho battle of Cblcamanga. He was brought home two months before his time expired, and will now meet many of tbe boys tor the first time staco that ite.
