EXCELLENT counterfeits of the new dollar are being made oi block tin, bismuth and pulverized Iglass. They are oheaper than the genuine article, and wkere people do not kno^r the difference they answer just as well.

THK excursion of the German Catholic Benevolent Society to Indianapolis, tomorrow, promises to be a monster affair.

THERE was a sad party at the Terra Haute House Wednesday evening, and they received all possible comfort from sympathizing friends. It wss W. J. Williams, President of the National State Bank, Vincennes, his wife, family and relatives, who came up on the afternoon train, bearing the dead body of Mr. Williams' daughter Delia, an inter* eating and loveable girl, well known in this city from frequent visits to this, the old home of her parents. Miss Williams wss in her eighteenth year. While attending the Glendale, Ohio, Female Seminary, consumption claimed her for a victim, and she was brought home to die. The body was interred in the family lot in our city cemetery.

THB new Democratic City Council continues in force the members of the police and firp departments. Braxton Cox, the Street Commissioner, not being of ttot political faith, although he has i/e an excellent officer, was gotten rid of, by abolishiag the office. The duties of the office were placed upon City Marshal Buckingham, who happens to be a Republican, but we presume he will be relieved of the responsibility, and the office revived, before another election. Because, you know, be would have it in his power to put a horde of Republican voters on the streets just a few days before election time. This opinion is strengthened by the fact that an ordinance presented by Councilman Harris to abolish the salary of Street Commissioner, was voted down.

REV. W. M. CHEEVER died at his home in Tfantum City, Missouri, last Sunday morning. His death was caused by a tumor in the (face, fer the removal of which he submitted to several surgical operations—the first performed in New York. In the last operation one eye was removed. Mr. Cheever was for twelve years an earnest, ^faithful .Christian minister in this city, and^exercised a great influence, especially with the young people. He founded the Second Presbyterian church. He went from this city to Troy, Ohio, then to Walnut Hills, near Cincinnati, and finally to Kansas City, Missouri, all the time engaged in pulpit work. Ho was born in the southern part of this State and was in the 59th year of his age. He leaves a wife, two sons and two daughters. His wife was Miss Carrie, the eldest daughter of the late Dr. E. V. Ball. C. R. Peddle and wife, Mrs. E. V. Ball and Miss Tillie Ball started for Kansas City Monday afternoon. ,,

ERNEST WHITEHOUSE was put on trial in the Criminal Court on Wednesday, for shooting with intent to kill Deputy Sheriff Cleary, one year ago. Hon. Wm. Mack and Charles T. Burton engaged in the defense, and Prosecutor Kelly was assisted by A. B. Felsenthal. The facts in the case have been published so often that there was nothing new in the evidence, which was closed at four o'clock in the afternoon, Each of tbe four attorneys spoke and at six o'clock the jury retired. Not being able to agree, they were locked up tor tbe night. On the court assembling next morning, they came in with a verdict of guilty, and fixed the punishment at two years in the penitentiary and a fine of $50. The mildness of the punishment was a surprise to the entire community—and to the prisoner also, for soon after bis arrest he expressed a willlngBOSs to plead guilty, and reoelve a sentence of eight years. It Is somewhat astounding to learn that on first retiring three of th: jurymen were In favor of acquital. Nine thought him guilty, anl eight were in favor of ten years in th? penitentiary. The three jurymen in favor of letting him go free, after an all night wrestle, induced the others to agree upon tbe insignificant punishment named. Such a verdict is rather disoouraging to officers In the discbarge of their duty,- but as the decision is made it is hoped thst young Whitehouse will appreciate this leniency and when he comq^Jbom^ ^endeavor to lead a better life.

THE development of musical taste in this oountry is remarkable, as much in the high degree to which it has attained as in the universal dissemination of it throughout the community. Whether this is due to tbe influence of the large German element, or to the instinctive desire of our nature for such expression of our higher emotions it matters not, it is equally matter of congratulation. We farther are gratified in feeling that our beautiful city is not behindhand in the possession of musical talent* and that we possess accomplished musicians who add the merit of generosity to that of their talent, and who afford us entertainments that cannot be surpassed by any other city of its sise in the west. In proof or this, see tbe list or amateur concerts which have been given at the Opera Tlouse during tbe past winter, ail of which were so creditable that it would be invidious to indicate any one In par* ticulan and these are yet to be followed by Goldensteln, to night, Leibing's concert, next Thursday evening, tbe season to culminate In the appearance of tbe Oratorio society, Thursday, June 28th, when It gives a second grand concert, rendering Mendelssohn's "As tbe Hart Pants," and Whitusr's centennial hymn at the chief numbers. This latter organiMtlon has undertaken tbe responsible task of interpreting for the public car only works of tbe highest type, and of deaseminating a correct musical taste throughout the community. In this it haa already so tar succeeded, that mucli of

our

present musical enthusiasm ia doe to It labors.

THE Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, one of the best pspers in tbe country, In an editorial speaking of Dr. Yon Moschzisker, said:

During the war we met Dr. Von Moschzisker at theNational Capital, and were personally cognizant of a number of remarkable cares that be effected of cases that had baffled the skill of leading ubysioians of thai city and elsewhere. He enjoyed the confidence and esteem of the foreign ministers, several of them beiug among his patients. He brought before the Medical Bureau of the government, a number of valuable suggestions on tbe establishment of our magnificent hospital system, which have been adopted by the entire land, to the amelioration and relief of our gallant soldiers suffering from wounds and disease. He has written and published several very valuable medical works which have met with a large demand among the profession. He.is also tbe inventor of an apparatus for conveying remedial agents into the interior ducts and passages of the Ear, Throat and Nose, for tbe treatment of Deafness, Catarrh, Throat Diseases and Asthma, which is pro* nounoed by scientific and medical men as destined to work a revolution in ths manner of curing these diseases."

In the mtantime, we desire our friends and all those who aft favorable to tbe establishment of a thorough Republican paper in the city of Terre Haute, to speak a good word for us, as we come determined to succeed, having the labor in our own family, but not all the capital required, yet labor should be regarded equal to capital in all business enterprises, in proportion to the labor required.
