The drcus procession to-day bad some very pretty wagons, but none of them were so handsome as J. H.

Col. Cookerly, in a card in yesterday's Express, says the announcement in last Saturday's Ledger, thatlte was a candidate for Circuit Judge, was made without his knowledge. None but an old journalist, who appreciates the love pencil pushers have for points for pungent paragraphs, would have been so thoughtful as to close bis card as did the Colonel, with: "Hoping that you will not find any fault with me for spoiling little material for sport, I am, Ac."

Dr. F. Von Moscbzisker came to this city, expecting to stay but a few weeks. Such has been bis success, and such the high standing of his patients that we are glad to know the date of his departure has been put far in tbe future. He has effected some remarkable cures, aa have been attested by cards from several prominent citizens—people who would not lend their names to sustain, or recommend to other sufferers, a charlatan or impostor. It is indeed a pleasure to note tbe growing success of so worthy a gentleman and skillful physician as Dr. Von Moscbzisker.
Republican: A number of bis friends visited Colonel John P. Baird, at tbe Indiana Insane Asylum, last woek, and report that he is worse than he has been sinceentering the institution.

He remembers incidents that happened twenty-five or thirty years ago, but when asked of anything later has a very indistinct recollection.

He first visited this city in 1886, practicing law in the western courts, and he made a speech ineur old court house during the Clay campaign. In his Inquiries after our old citizens he is surprised to find most them passed away. He remembers onoe taking along walk out in the country to look at the Terre Haute House, now about the center of the city.
