From Saturday to Saturday.

A BRIEF RF.VIEW OF THE WEEK'S NEWS.

One disadvantage about writing for a paper which appears but once a week is th'o fact that the writer must often deKcribo events which are several days old and which have almost ceased to bo of interest to any but readers who live at a distance and who, having no other channel of commnicatlon between themselves and tho peoplo they have left, depend upon tho homepapor for a strict and impartial account of all that has transpired. Probably not less than tlireo thousand of Tho Mail's subscribers depend wholly upon it for Terre Haute news and it does not matter to them that a portion of this news is a week old, or that it has been discussed, dwelt upon and dropped by every other Torre Haute paper, so long as they havo not heard of it. It will be news to them the flret timo they hear it and they might with Justice complain if for any such reason it were omitted. It is, then, no leas a duty to write for those readers who reoeive the paper at postoffices in the distant East or Wost than for those who buy it damp from the press on our own streots, and it is Just as important that we bring up the record of events from the afternoon of the Saturday past, to tho afternoon of the Saturday present as that we sock to make it interesting to the person whe reads every daily in town. In view of these facts and rememboring that The Mail aims to bo a strictly reliable weekly paper, containing all the important local news of tho week, nobody need bo surprised or disappointed at occasionally finding in it mentions of oventa a week old—as, for example,

THE ORKRNnAOK DEMONSTRATION. The grand rally of the Independent forces, advertised for a month past to take place in this city on the afternoon and evonlng of Saturday, September lfith, took place as per printed programmes, except as to speakers. Hie moat desperate efforts bad been made to drum up a crowd. For weeks the local managers of the movement had been traveling up and down tho "ague belt," holding meetings, pouting bills, urging tho importance of ©very friend of "the cause" turning out, and proving to the "gold barous" and tue "money kings" that the down-trodden and oppressed people, though fearfully hard up were stlil defiant. The Express had fairly bristled with double-leaded appeals ©very days and the day proceeding the gathering of the dsns grow absolutely frantic In headline*, am! In a fine Iremcy of italics, repeated at irregular interval* throughout it* dlsderod column* the inflammatory cry that it was "a conflict for the emancipation of labor," and coloured its followers to "riso up in strength and power to rebake the efforts to oorrupt and break the power of our movement!** No Greenbacker, past present or prospective, wa« excused from turning oat and

helping to swell the crowd. It was announced that it was to be the last demon, titration of the campaign, and for that reamn must include all! There would be "no postponement on account of weather." It was to be a demonstration that future ages would look back to with uncovered heads, and the names of the patriots who participated in it should be handed down to posterity as the noblest heroes of this or any other world!

Well, If there hadn't been so fBUeli talk r.hnnt It—if public expectation hadn\ so unreasonably and ishly aroused—tap demonstration, when it took placet, would hare been oonstdored awry creditable affair. But when

one remembered the frantic appeals for all to turn out, and that In the procession was included the entire voting strength of not only this oounty, but a dozen other oonntles surrounding this that chcap excursion trains had been run Into the oity from every direction and every facility furnished for every greenbacker within fifty miles of Terre Uaut# to get here, tho insignificance of the demonstration only excited ridicule. And it was laughable to hear the excuses made for there not bfiing a larger crowd, sickness—milkslckneesaud ague—being tho one most generally employed.

As we have said, if the demonstration bad not been so gorgeously advertised as to convince everybody that it included the entire strength of the party within a radius of one hundred miles, it would have been a creditable affair. As it was, nothing could have given more solid comfort to the members of the other parties. The daylight procession numbered about seven hundred, on a liberal count that of the evening in the neighborhood of fourteen hundred. The composition of both was about what might be seen in a procession of either of the other parties, namely, a good many boys, a good many "oruery bummers" and a good many very respectable and intelligent men. As a whole, it was no worse and no better than any of the other processions. After so much boasting, it was in numbers lamentable exhibition of the we«kness of the party" in this district, and undoubtedly did them harm instead of uvod.

Mr. Anson \^alcott, the candidate for Governor, spoko in the afternoon Sam. Cary, the candidate for Vice President spoko in the evening. "Unfortunately," as the Express puts it, "Brick Pomeroy did not put in an appearance, though it (the Express) hopes that he will be able to do so before the close of the campaign.",,, .....

TUB DEMOCRATS AT MONTEZUMA. On Monday about sixty members ol theTildenand Hendricks escort, accompanied by Toute's band and a number of other citiKeas- about four coach loads of people In all—went up to Montezuma to see Me and hear my friends Voorhees," as old Blue Jeans very neatly puts it. He was there and we are quite certain that every Democrat came back thoroughly convinced that he is the ugliest man in the country. The meeting at Monteznma was one of the largest that has ever takon place in that part of the country, y*.

HAY LESS HANNA'S RKVIVAL. Many comical things have taken place in this vicinity since the campaign opened but certainly nothing more supremely ridiculous has come to our knowledge than Bayless Hanna's recent performances in the Moody and Sankey line of business. If any man familiar with the facts can think them over without a grin, he may set it down as conclusively proved, elthor that he is totally devoid of any sense of the humorous, or that something is the matter with his faoe. That Bayless fully appreciates the absurdity ot the thing is perhaps another question. At any rate he is making a good deal of "fun for the boys," and in that respect is a public benefactor. We hail him as the roan who makes us laugh.

Something like two weeks ago Bayless suddenly appeared in Terre Haute (he lives here, as everybody knows—or ought to know) with the manuscript of a voluminous Democratic speech which be proceeded at once to have put into typo by as many newspapers as could be cajoled into undertaking the Job. We should not like to say how many days he spent in reading and correcting tho proof of that speech, or how many of the printed slips he sent away bymail. Suffice it that no leading newspaper in the country was slighted, but tba' all had a copy duly mailed them in time to get it and be able to print it in full, the morning following Its delivery in Terre Haute. The opening paragrapn of the great speech—which of courso was regarded as one of those magnificent bunts of patriotic eloquence inspired by the occasion—sn of) hsnd, extemporaneous effort characteristic of great orators .iv&h like this ivaa line mis.

FBMXW OMZRNS: In looking

over this large audience of troubled human feces, I feel oppressed with the weight of responsibility which I am now called upon to share with all my countrvmon. No ordinary circumstance could have brought a large concourse of people Ilk® this together. Wo all feel and know we are in the presence of impending danger*. You have come together for oounsel and sympathy."

We quote it merely to show what sublime mnfWem-8 Bayless had in his ability to draw a crowd, for it would have boon dreadfulifthere had been "no large audience of troubled human faces" there. But BAjless is an advertiser, as well as an orator. He don't undertake thing and fall from inability or disinclination to blow his own bugle. He is stranger to any such weakness. Iu this instance a large number ot "locals" were inserted in the daily papers, where they would do the most good. These looals" alluded In glowing terms to the great event that was to qocur on Wednesday evening, the promised speech of oar eminent fellow dtixen and "distinguished statesman," the "Honorable" Bayless W. Hanna. It was stated that ieneral" Hanna was known and recognised the country over as the eloquent champion of Reform, and that the telegraph would bear the burning words of his matchless oratory to the uttermost parts of tho earth, and everybody was warned to go early if they expected to get close enough to the god-like "Judcr*" to

fully

enjoy his woadsrful slo

queiu— And, as if tin* was noteno. ni to fill iiio house to o*€riiowina. hourly t^.igraph dispatches to and between Baylees and somebody the aforesaid "locals"

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING

designated as "The Sweet Singer of Israel," were published in all the publio prints. The burden of these dispatches was that "The Sweet Singer of Israel" would be on hand without fell and warble a few wild uotea both before and after tho great speeoh. The singing would in feet be a feature ef the entertainment and no mean feature at that. But the most stupendous and extraordinary pleoe of advertising was reserved for Wednesday morning. This was the appearance of "The Sweet Singer o« Isrsel" iu a complete suit of Continental uniform, knee breeches, oocked hat and all. In this striking and highly sonsational harness he visited all the publio places In town and many private residences, wed of course by a crowd of two hundred boys, more or less, and announoed the programme for the evening. The entertainment in the ovoning was all the most ardent lover ef light comedy oould desire, being a pleasing mlxturo of tho lyrical-comical and comical-lyrical in such delightful proportions as scut every spectator home thoroughly convinced of Its being tho most successful joke of Bayless Hanna's absurd life. Indeed, so success ful was it that no one was surprised to hear that the Joke was to be repeated iu all the surrounding towns.

It is on its second week's run now. in the outsido townships, and it is confidently believed that Bayless and tho Sweet Singer will be able to travel on it tho whole season. With a slight change of pr gramme we havo no doubt, that it could bo played here to paying houses, at least every Saturday night. However if this suggestion is to be acted upon,, wo .had better add here, that Bayless would be expected to do a portion of the singing. His talent in that line is too well known here, to permit of his confining himself to telling the story of "Mr. Simp son's bull calf or relating how ho car ried tho news to Tilden. Ho would also have to do more dancing than he done in Maxville, St. Mary's,*or any of those smaller places, where buffoonery is not so common an amusement. But whether they show again in Terre Haute or not, it cannot be denied that Bayless and the Sweet Singer, in their great burlesque of Moody and Sankey, have proven themselves stars of the first magnitude, and deserve a place at the very head of their profession.

SOCIETY AFFAIRS.

The season is at hand when the social world begins its preparations for enjoying cold weather and long winter evenings. Soon we shall begin to hear of balls, parties, brillant weddings, and "entertainments" of various kinds, with out number, and these will continue till summer roses bloom again. It is now quite evident that the season in this city is to be a brilliant one. Not in the sense, perhaps, that it will develope an unusual number of "grand crushes" as the huge and formal parties are appropriately called, but the means of quiet and sensible social enjoyment will be more numerous than heretofore. Clubs are organized more numerously than ever, and at *the same time more systematically. A pleasing feature of the case is that there is a larger percentage of literary and musical societies in embryo than usual. We gather from these facts that Terre Haute society is rapidly growing in refinement. There Is not so much display for the mere love of it. There is more culture, more love of art, and belles-lettres and a greater disposition to deyote time to aesthetics, which has hitherto been squandered. Formerly it was supposed that a social club could not secure and retain the interest of its members unless it was devoted entirely to eating, drinking and dancing, Now, quite a number of the more successful organizations alternate dancing with musical and literary exercises, and by this means secure not only variety, but also culture. Dancing, at proper times and in suitaole places, is a harmless and pleasing entertainment. It is an important factor in social enjoyment, but it is not the«only exercise possible to intelligent human beings in search of an evening's pleasure. Amateur theatrials are not a bad thing for such purposes while literary evenings, devoted to readings, essays, etc., are capital, and,deserve all the favor they seem to be growing into. Music, too, is always a delightful recreation. With all these pleasures at command, the society poople of the Prairie City evidently intend to enjoy a pleasant winter season. The hard times nave taught a wholesomo lesson In economy, and those who bavo been In the habit of spending lsrg© sums for entertainments of pretentions character are now satisfied that it is not only possible to economize, but that there is moro solid enjoyment in sensible and inexpensive pleasure than they had over dreamed of In their philosophy.

TH^ SOLmXRs' KSCXIO*.

Terrs Haute was represented at the great Reunion at Indianapolis Thun»day by more than one thousand of her patriotic citigens. The last train, which left here at 8 o'clock in the morning, and which carried the Hayes Escort and Harrison Guards of this city, was composed of twelve well packed cars. Owing to the detention of the train at several points whore it had to side-track, it did not reach Indianapolis until after Eleven o'clock, and then the main procession had been moving tor two hours. CoL Wood fbrmed his battalion on Louisiana street and marched it north on IlUoois street to Washington, east on Washington to Meridian and north on MeridisiygAie Circle, wher» it was assigned uifflght centre of the main column.

Rev. S. S. M-irtyn, of Nashua, N. 11., occupied the pulpit at the First Congregational church ladt Sabbath, morning and ovening. The IIOUHO was well filled at both services. The sermons were able and interesting and tho audience well pleased. Mr. Martyn is hero as a candidate for the pastorate of the church. If uporr a better acquaintance he is pleased with the place the people and the church, and the church is pleaged with him, he will be called. So far as wo can learn the impression on both sides has been favorable. Mr. Martyn i9 about 37 years of age. His family consist of a wife and four children. He will preach again to-morrow and will doubtless have a large audience. uiv-yp-

THE CAMPAIGN.

In this city, things have been rather quiet this week. The Democrats listened to Governor Walker, of Virginia, Tuesday night. The Republicans bad a large meeting at the Academy last night, at whioh Governor Harriman, of New Hampshire, add Mr. Smalley. of the New York Tribune, delivered most telling addresses. The Independents have had their usual love-feasts in the wards, and been enthused by Captain Jabez Smith, Noyes White and other local orators. Of course the ranking officer in the Smith Brigade, Major O. J., has continued his tea parties" in the outside townships. On the whole it has been quiet as compared with last week.

M. iW CORRECT.

The Commissioners this week very properly instructed the Auditor to receive bids and award the contract for printiug poll books and tally sheets for the approaching election, as well as expense books for the Auditor's use, to the lowest responsible bidder. We fear it will be many a day, before Vigo county has a better or more intelligent set of Commissioners than the present incumbe rr*» I

THE NATIONAL I.T XACY.

On Tuesday, the Browns, a club of considerable local repute, played a match game at their grounds on east Main street with a picked nine consisting of the following well known citizens: C. S. Anderson, Will Tuell, Kd Dawes, Horace Smith, Frank Brokaw, Miff McKennan, Harry Oilbert, Will Morgan, and M. N. Diall.

The game was closely contested fchd showed clearly that with practice the amateurs would have given the Browns all the amusement they desired. The following is the 900KE:

After a liberal quantity of saw dust had been applied to the tracks, the game began, at 4 o'clock. Up to tho seventh inning the entertainment was rather tame, when, after two men had been put out, the Torre Haute boys made seven runs. This of course was a specios of jockeying on the part of their opponents, for afterwards tho Terre Hauteans did not make a single run. The following is tho

It was stated in the council on Tuesdaj' night, by Mr. Roedell, member from the Third ward, that the city was at present paying interest at the rate of 11 per cent, per annum for whot money it was using.

THB FAIR

of the Vigo Agricultural Society, which began Tuesday and ends this afternoon, has been by all odds the poorest ever held in this county. A number of very good reasons might be mentioned to account for this failure, as well as to explain why these exhibitions have steadily grown worse and worse with oach succeeding year but the game is hardly worth the candle. Set it down, briefly, that the county fair, in any but the smaller and more remote counties, is a played out institution. In Vigo county it is dead, and there is no sort of use trying to galvanize the corpse. This fact might as well be accepted—prooably will be now. No set of inen could hsve worked harder for success than have the offlsers and directors of the society, and especially the superintendent, Mr. Jeffers. It was hopeless from the first, and nobody is to blame for not accomplishingan impossibility, un,

We see that the County Commissioners this week allowed bill of J. A. Vridagh's amounting to $7.50. We trust that isn't in full for Viida^h's claim against tho county for preparing plans and specifications and superintending the construction of Joe Blake's court house.

THB NUMBERING.

Everybody is aware, we suppose, ol the fact that all tho houses in this city are being systematically numbered "according to the Philadelphia plan and that, no preventing providence interfering, it will be possible pretty soon to give a stranger an Intelligent answer when he asks the way to a certain point or residence. We have nothing specially new to report in regard to the proggress of the work. It is being put through by Me«sr. Hobb, Alien Co., as fast as is practicable and In as thorough and reliable a manner as could be desired. The most distant numbers are on the streets south of Main, some of the houses running up as high as 1733. East, the highest number is 1620, on Poplar street. The work north of Main is not far enough advanced to speak of with certainty, but the number will run probably to 1600.
