TWO EDITIONS

Of this Paper are published. The FIRST EDITION, oh Friday Evening, has a large circulation in the surrounding towns, where it is sold by newsboys and agents. The SECOND EDITION, on Saturday Evenin?,gocsint the hands of nearly every reading person ui the city, and the farmers of this immediate vicinity. Every Week's Issue is, in iact,

TWO NEWSPAPERS,

In which all Advertisements appear for THE PRICE OF ONE ISSUE.

MAINE is for Blaine, first, last, and all the time. The announcement of the fact did not surprise anybody very muck.

THE Express has a word to Bay this morning about the Indianapolis Herald that can hardly be construed as "an apology."

TILDEX will be a candidate for the Democratic nomination and no doubt of it. He has said so plainly—something he doesn't often do.

MACKAY, the California millionaire, has purchased J. C. Flood's entire interest in the famous Comstock mines and mills. The price paid was upwards Of $5,000,000.

So it seems they have some shoddy things in "the old country" after all. The bridge over the Tay was of that kind. It must be very humiliating to cousin John.

CINCINNATI is in mourning over the resignation of Theodore Thomas, musical director of the College of Music. The trouble is occasioned by the modest Theodore meddling with the business affairs of the institution.

ONE year hence there will be a new •occupant of the White House. Who can estimate the miles of processions, tho barrels of money, the columns of editorials and number of speeches that will bo required to put him there?

AMERICA still leads the world in genosity. Her contributions to the Irish relief fund have not been less than $700,000, which is more than all the rest of Christendom combined has given. More than a third of this sum came from the New Tfork Herald's fund.

AGAIN we have the New York Sun's •word for' it that Mr. Edison is about to commence the lighting of that city with electricity, and that anew map of the city below Grand street is being made preparatory to laying lines of wire and locating the engines to furnish the power. _______________

WHAT with the exodusting negroes from North Carolina, and from 300 to 500 immigrants from the old world per week, the directory men ought to find Indiana rather a good field 'for their exploits. If the population of the towns don't multiply under such circumstances it will be thoir own fault.

WILLIAM MAXNYELIV WOOD, SurgeonGeneral of the U. S. Navy, died on Monday at his residence at Owing'a Mills, Baltimore County, Maryland, at the age of 72 years. The deceased was a brother of the late Charles Wood and Dr. John A. Wood, of this city, and of Mrs. Donnelly, Mrs. Dr. Cunningham, Mrs. Preston and Mrs. Hamill.

THEUE are many ups and downs in this world. Rev. Edward Cowly, late of the Shepherd's Fold, New Yoak, convicted of cruelty to children, and on Tuesday placed in the penitentiary on Blackwell's Island, was once chaplain of the latter institution. It is remembered that he used to order prisoners into the dark cell ror coughing during religious service. ____________

THE IndiAuapolis News advooates the levying of a tax on wagons and cartriages, the proceeds of the tax to be used only for street improvement purposes. In this way the people who use the streets will be compelled to keep them in repair, while those who are not able 4o afford the luxury of a carriage will not have the tax to tpay.

A tax or this

kind is Imposed in some plaoes, and it must be confessed that there is cor.sid.erable philwsophy in it.

THERE is nothing that counts for •more than perseverance. The sufferers from John Morgan's famous raid into

Indiana during the war have been trying ever dince to get some compensation for their losse#, bat without avail. Last Saturday, however, Abram Stonecipher, of Leavenworth, Indiana, received a check for |5,500 from the United States Treasury, the full amount of his losses and it is now believed that all who have bona fide claims growing out of Morgan's raid will eventually be paid.

THB city of Lamasco, alias Bvansville, furnishes a forcible illustration of the evil effects of "the law's delay." A man named Woods was indicted for murder in 1877, and upon trial the jury gave him a life sentence. Be obtained anew trial, the result of which was a disagreement of the jury. Disheartened by the prospect of having to go through another trial, the poor man grow weary of life and ended his career with a dose of morphine.

THE Republican' State Central Committee at its meeting in Indianapolis on Thursday, elected as delegates for the State at large to the Chicago Convention the following named gentlemen: Col. George W. Friedly, of Bedford Gen. Ben. Harrison, of Indianapolis Major D. B. Kumler, of Evansville, and James S. Collins, of Columbia City. For alternates Jesse J. Brown, of New Albany Thomas H. Nelson, of this city Leonidas Sexton, of Rushville, and B. W. Langdon, of Lafayette. These are all excellent gentlemen and are well dispersed over the State.

WHIMS all other kinds of business are steadily improving the business of the lawyers has been growing worse and worse, and the dockets smaller and smaller. The old members of the profession, who reaped the harvest which preceded and followed the panic oi 1873, can tide over the evil day very well, but to those who are striving for a first foothold in the profession, the present is the most discouraging that has been known for many years. Yet if they will starve it through there is no doubt but they will eventually have plenty of business.

THE St. Gothard Tunnel, the longest in the world, is now completed. It is over nine miles in length, while the Mont Cenis is about seven, the Hoosac four and three-quarters and the Sutro less than four. This last great piece of engineering was begun in 1872 and was finished at a cost of i27,000,000 francs, the original estimated cost being but 48,000,000 francs. The tunnel is of a horse shoe form, twenty feet high and twenty-five feet wide. It connects the railway systems of Germany, Switzerland and Italy, and is of vast importance to the commercial interests of Europe.

ON Tuesday of this week the Czar ^Jexander II., celebrated the twentyfifth anniversary of his succession to the throne of Russia, and a most uncomfortable throne it has come to be. The aged autoorat is in hourly danger of being poisoned, assassinated or blown to atoms and his is undoubtedly the most unhappy crowned head in Europe. The opposition to the Czar is not founded on personal dislike of the soverign, for he has not been a cruel despot, but has done many merciful things, among which was the abolition of the system of serfdom. It is the result of the working of modern ideas of the rights of the people, the spread of the leaven ®f political liberty, and the final result will doubtless be the overthrow of the system of absolute monarchy in Russia.

THE papers a few days since stated that Senator Ben Hill, of Georgia, was the subject of a seduction suit, the jlaintiff being Miss Jessie Raymond, aged twenty-three, who wanted $10,000 of the Senator's hard earned money. The case was made to appear still more interesting by the statement that Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood was the fair plaintiff's attorney. But now comes Jessie Raymond and of her own free will and acoord says that Senator Ben Hill is not her seducer and that Mrs. Lockwood filed the suit ggainst him without her knowledge or consent. This leaves Mrs. Belva in a bad shape and unless she can "rise and explain" the business satisfactorily her professional life is likely to be cut off in the midst of its usefulness.

A VERY singular rich man died in New York recently. It was James Lenox, and his career was one of the most extraordinary of modern times. Inheriting a fortune from his father, he carefully calculated his annual income, the whole of which, except what it cost him to live, he expended in works of charity and benevolence. He was a recluse and lived with a maiden sister, he himself never marrying. Although a shrewd and successful business man and reaping large returns from his investments in real estate, he kept himself from the public gaze as much as possible. His house could be entered by no one exoept a few personal friends who bad a peculiar method of ringing the door bell. All others rang there in vain for no answer would come to their summons. Every letter, however, addressed to him through the postoffice, appealing for aid, was carefully considered and if be found the subject a worthy one his help was forthcoming. He gave away in a single year as much as 1100,000. He lived plain, indulging only in the luxuries of a carriage and a sea side cottage. During his life he gathered a large collection of fine paintings and rare books and,,manuscripts, some of whichuoost.several thoasand dollars each. Before his death he established the Lenox Institute, in which these collections were placed for the benefit of the public.

BUSINESS CARJES.

It is a good sign when a man is proud of his business. Yet how common it is to hear men finding fault with their business and representing themselves as unfortunate, because they are bound to obtain a living. This class of men are continually fretting and aciaally destroy all the comfort they would otherwise take in their work or what is worse, change their business and go on from bad to wonts, shifting from one thing to another, until they find themselves without home or shelter. Bat while a man fails, as many a noble man hait, because his peculiar talent was not suited to his business, still it oftener happens that failure results from neglect of an honest business. The business man you would succeed, must put his heart into all he^oea. There is no profession that has not its peculiar cares and vexations. No man will {escape these by changing his business, The rallying 'Mk I

spiiSiili

word is stick to your business if you would prosper. No kind of business is altogether agreeable, nor will it give you money without struggling.

Commerce in all departments of trade, is afflicted, like all other pursuits, with trials, unwelcome losses, and necessities for effort and labor, both mental and physical, such as the ordinary business man knows nothing of. It is'the very wantonness of folly for a man to search out the "frets" and pull backs of his calling, and give up his mind every day to such reflections.

Brooding over troubles in business only gives them greater strength and development, and brings home each night a larger brood "to perch over the open door." On the other hai^d man has power given him to shed beauty and pleasure oa the humblest calling, if he is only wise. Whatever a man does he should do with his might, and identity it with pleasant associations. Accept your calling and go at it with a zest, as the practical farmer does a rough piece of ground, and begin to get out the rocks and stumpy, to deepen and mel low the soil that ft may become a fruit ful field.

THE Wisconsin Legislature is considering a female suffrage amendment ta the constitution. The Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin believes that, sooner or later, the issue of female suffrage will have to be referred to the people, and pays this graceful compliment to the women of that State:

It is becoming everywhere known that the women of Wisconsin, as a olass, are much better educated than the men. Anyone who looks around this goodly city of Milwaukee will soon come to that conclusion, and if education is one of the essential requisites to a proper exercises of the elective franchise, we must say that the women of Wisconsin are especially entitled to this privilege. __________

DO MEN LIKE WOMEN! A contributor to the New York Times thus replies to this question:

Gain the confidence of any man, young or old, and a women is at the bottom of it. She is the aim and end of his existence. She is his whole dream of happiness and pleasure. Weman is not more the heaven of the Mussulman than of Christian. What "she said" and what "she did" is the burden of club conversation. and,tho only subject which never palls on their taste. The most popular gentleman in one of our best clubs is the ono who talks "woman" exclusively. When he enters drooping spirits revive, ennui takes its flight, a circle is formed, expectation is on tip toe—for what?. Athlete spirits Half of them could not lift an oar. For tbe latest election tidings? They are too indifferent to vote or do their duty. News of the winnings of last night, or the races? No, my friends he is simply relating a "good thing" of one of the queens of the stage to be followed by a recital of one of his own bonnes aventures

Women, as a rule, do not make love. Indeed, I have met many women who have never loved at all—but never a man. He may not like ihe society of his wife or sister, but' that does not prove he will not sue for the privilege of tying the shoe strings of a pretty woman. Constancy is not one ofnis virtues, I admit, but he loves the sex. When a noted lawyer retired from his profession, I asked him what he intended to do with himself? He answered, "Spend the rest of my life among the women of Paris and Vienna." Was his an exceptional resolve A distinguished diplomat has been driven to the verge of suicide at the thought of never more being able to enjoy female society. Households are being broken up daily by the infatuation of middle aged men for a pretty feminine face. Women are the caupe of two-thirds of the duels fought. In all ages woman has been the incentive to the noblest actions, the grandest poems, as well as to the most devilish plots and fiendish tortures ever perpetrated by man. The old Russian Czar was so convinced of the attraction of the sexes that ho heavily fined and, in some instances, imprisoned such of his courtiers as failed to bring their wives and daughters with them to his levees. Solomon, the Wise, surrounded himself with 800 feminines. Havo we no Solomons among us? King David, the greatest of poets, defied God for a woman and I suppose I need hardly remind you that Adam lost Paradise and has given us a world of trouble for the sake of "Woman."

If any man doubts a boy's attraction toward a girl, just let him reside in a town where boarding schools of the opposite sexes are established the amount of letters surreptitiously conveyed into that female seminary would astonish a postman. I have known boys to steal their dead sister's treasures to present to their little sweethearts. I do not write exceptions, but examples of what is passing daily, hourly, in our midst. I have been carefnl not to exaggerate, as any man who will speak truthfully will acknowledge. Man does like woman, collectively or individually, and for a woman's approbation will peril life and soul. Unhappy marriages do not arise from antagonism of tbe sexes. Bind two men as firmly together, and let society frown at tbe slightest independent move in either, snd the fate of tbe Kilkenny cats will be tbe result, as surely as entorced duty is irksome.

SETTLINO A LAW POINT. New York Special. A vestryman named Thompson has sued the pastor aud trustees of the West Hoboken Reformed Episcopal church for the price of a carpet for which be had become responsible, and was compelled to pay. The ease was just resumed in court when tbe pastor. Rev. D, McFadden, arose and exclaimed: "'Hold! hold! If tbe court please, I have just been spoken to by a voice from above which bids me stop this case. It will be removed to rection and with this man," pointing to Thompson "and he may go his way, and I'll go mine." Proceedings were stooped, and a settlement followed.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL.

"THE COMMITTEE."

It RISES TO EXPLAIN.

THE SAME RESULT THAT OCCURRED TO LAURA MORGAN LIABLE TO HAPPEN TO ANY MEDIUM.

Editor Saturday Evening Mail:

In the introductory remarks on the socalled Morgan expose, in last Saturday's issue, you say "we are ready to wager a good-sized sum that Anna Stewart, of Pence's Hall, would come to grief under circumstances similar to those narrated below, wherein another noted Terre Haute medium has fallen by the wayside."

That any materializing medium, Mr. Editor, public or private, would be liable, under certain conditions to meet with the same result reported in the ease of Laura Morgan, be that report true or false, we freely and unhesitatingly admit.

Mrs. Pickering, whose materializations startled the world, was two years ago caught under similar circumstanoes, and the expose was thorough and complete, and the skeptio was "ready to wager a good-sized

Bum"

proper

stop this case, it win oe rea higher tribunal, and by diad advice of God, I will settle

MARRIAGE LICENSES. Hje loilowing marriage licensee have been issued since our last report:

Thomas F. Donham and Lida A. Akers. William T. Glbba and Sarah A. Stough. Milton Pootorff and Josephine Weeden. Michael P. Cannon and Sic

lary E. Lucas, Henderson.

Albert K. Burks and Lola Millerand Loots* Miller. Henry T. Wilson and Minerva J. Vice. John McDonald and Jane Norris. George W. Bevia and Ada May Prices Thomas J. Satphen and Mary Meyers. Harry A. Thomas and Sarah Mewhlnney. Wm,B. Mewhlnney and May V.Thomas. Wm, Anderson ana Mary Wood. Jones B. Miller and Aimee M. Llppert

that she would

never rise again. Those who bad tested her, and knew something of the law controling mediumship, depended on and sustained her, and to-day Mrs. Pickering is giving satisfactory and successful seances to the multitude in the city of Boston.

More recently Florence Cook, of London, the world renowned medium whose materialization power Professor crooks tested and proved to be genuine from the standpoint of science, was caught under similar circumstances, and the populace gloated over the expose 1 "We are ready to wager a good-sized sum" that she will beexonorated and sustained, and that, too, by those of acknowledged scientific ability.

That Miss Laura, Mrs. Pickering, or Miss Cook practiced fraud or deception, knowingly, in their seances, will not be accepted by those who know them personally and have investigated their medial powers, or by those who know anything of the law governing these wonderful and divine gifts.

In each of the above cases the form grabbed proved to be a partial and imperfect transfiguration of the medium and hence no serious result was liable to follow. Inharmony, which doubtless prevailed at each seance above referred to, is productive of the transfiguration phase, and may explain the fortunate escape of the mediums lrom bodily injury. At a seance, a few years ago, at Havana, New York, Elizabeth J. Campton, medium, the representative, whose transfiguration was more perfect than those above referred to, was abruptly caught, from the effect of which the srostrated medium sweat profusely _arge drops of blood, aud for a time her life was held in suspense.

In the higher and more perfect phase, the representative stands out boldly and independently of the medium. That Anna Stewart possesses the higher phase in an eminent degree, no reasonable and unprejudiced mind, after

investigation, will doubt that

the same gift is to no small degree vouchsafed to Laura Morgan, we know. If, as we have shewn, grabbing the representative who has taken on transfiguration jeopardized the life of the medium, it must be conceded that to grab and forcibly retain the independent form, whose materialization holds to a large extent the vital and life forces of the medium, must prove hazardous.

Holding the above to be the law, we shall continue to keep a vigilant watch over our medium, and protect her to the utmost of our ability against the raBh acts of the ignorant and prejudiced skeptic.

We know Anna Stewart to be a true and genuine medium, and her personal character to stand above reproach, the unwarrantable and unjust assertions of the ignorant, unscrupulous defamer to the contrary notwithstanding.

In conclusion, Mr. Editor, our explanation is given for the benefit of the honest, true, and thinking minds, and we do not intend to be drawn into a newspaper controversy to gratify the whims of tbe captious.

FALLEN PENCE,

Committee. JAMBS HOOK. I SAMUEL CONNER.

THE WHIRL IQIO 'OF TIME. James Buchanan Evans was one of the head clerks in the treasury department eighteen years ago, and a great favorite in Washington society. He was a noted wit, a graceful dancer, wealthy and a free drinker. AMiss Harvey was a Washington belle. She belonged to a Norfolk family and had been carefully reared. This couple caused a social flutter by eloping and getting married. They did not return, and were soon forgotten in the circles in which they bad moved. Even their relatives lost sight of them. A few days ago, while a woman was singing and dancing on the stage in a concert saloon in Milwaukee, she was told that her husband was lying unconscious in a barroom. It was common for him to get drunk, and she attached little importance to the message but her daughter, also a performer, went to see her father, and found him dying from a fractured skull. He was tbe once courted James Buchanan Evans, and bad become a sot. Tbe woman was the former belle, Miss Harvey, and had turned ber accomplishments to account in a low form of tbe show business.

LUNGS FULL OF FIRE. Paw Paw, Mich., Courier. A. W. Underwood, tbe colored man whose breath sets combustibles on fire, was interviewed by a Courier reporter on Tuesday evening. He says be is twenty-four years old. When about twelve years old be held his handkerchief to his mouth and blew upon it and it took fire. He says be is unable to account for it says that physicians have examined him and they are as much in tbe dark as himaelf. He set apiece of paper on fire at the Dyckman house, Tuesday evening last, before a large crowd. A respectable citizen of Paw Paw says that this fellow was out hunting last summer and none of tbe party had any matches, and that Underwood took up a handful of dry leaves, breathed upon them awhile, and set them on fire, from which they built a fire in tbe woods. He seemed much exhausted last evening after his effort says he could not enaure it more than twice in one day. Parties present last evening said they had examined bis hand's bad him rinse his mouth out and drink a glass of water, and then saw him set paper or Cloth on fire by his breath*

The Days and Doings of "Coal Oil Johnny." Many of our exchanges are full of editorial comments upon a subject which vividly recalls to mind the exciting days of 1858, when poor farmers and land owners of what are now known as the Pennsylvania"oil regions, who previously could roalize but a few dollars per acre for their land, suddenly found themselves millionaires. It was due to the great oil boom, that people rose from poverty to affluence. The story of the young man who, in one day, advanced from driving an ox team to the possession of the royalty incomc of over three thousand dollars per day, and then squandered his fortune so completely, as to be obliged to return to his former occupation, is familiar to newspaper readers of those days, and the doings of Coal Oil Johnny, as he was called, will long be remembered. Tbe present excitement to which we refer above, is also due to an oil subject, but of a different kind, as will appear from the following interviews with business men of Terre Haute. C. A. Robinson, Esq., of the well known drug house of Robinson fc Reiss, 601 Fourth street, said: Mr. George Knoehr, after having tried all remedies recommended to him for Rheumatism, received no relief until he tried the St. Jacobs Oil, tbe first application of which gave him relief, and the continued use cured him. Mr. F. W. Shalev, the family grocer, corner Eighth and Poplar streets, who, the reporter understood, had had experience with tbe remedy referred to, was also visited. This gentleman, alter remarking that he had frequently used the St. Jacobs Oil in his family with the promptest relief in every instance, cited the case of Mr. Jas. M. Hartley, a well known farmer living in Lost Creek Township. He had been an extreme sufferer with Rheumatism, and the St. Jacobs Oil not only effected *a radical cure with him, but his friends to whom he had recommended it experienced the same gratifying results, and all were high in praise of its wonderful power.

The next gentleman called upon was Mr. James E. Somes, therdruggist, corner Twelfth and Main streets, who assured the reporter that he was selling more of this Great German Remedy, and with better results—viz: Satisfaction to the buyers,—than of any similar remedy.

These reports are in unison with those appearing in every part of the country, and it is not to be wondered at, that they should produce astonishment among the people, the press, and the profession, and cause another "Oil boom."

LARGE NEW STOCK OF FANCY GOODS AND NOTIONS. PRICES POSITIVELY LOWER THAN ANY MAIN ST. STORE—GO THERE. POPULAR C0NT STORE, FOURTH STREET.

A Youxa man by the name of William Kotz, coachman for Mr. Charles McClellan, came to my store one morning complaining that his feet hurt him very badly, and expressing fears that they werei'rost bitten. He had in vain tried to get relief by consulting physicians, ana had endeavored, without success, to ease the pain by rubbing his feet with snow and ice, the remedy applied in such cases. Being exposed a great deal to the cold by bis occupation, his feet got worse daily, until one day no fainted in tho street. A few days after he again came to my store and showed me his feet. I have seen a great many sores in my life, but nothing equal to this, and was afraid the poor fellow would lose his limbs. He asked me for St. Jacobs Oil but at first I refused, as I did not wish to take the responsibility upon myself, not being a great admirer of so-called patent medicines. However some friends, who happened to be in the store at the time, begged megiye the St. Jacobs Oil to the sufferer so we rubbed his feet well with the Oil, and he took the remainder with him. After nine days the same man again came into my store, perfectly well, and requested me to write to.you of this most wonderful cure he also stated that two other persons had been cured of Rheumatism oy tbe same bottle which helped him.

THE STAR ME AT MARKET. Charley Dorsch is constantly adding new customers, and lie neVer loses any old ones, because he takes especial pains to serve them with the best meats to be bad in this market.

Consumption Cured. An old physician, retired from practice, having had placed in his hands by an East Indian missionary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy for tho speedy and permanent cure of Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma, and all Throat and Lung Affections, also a positive and radical cure for Nervous Debility and all Nervous Complaints, after having tested its wonderful curative powers in thousands of cases, has felt it his duty to make ii known to his suffering fellows. Actuated by this motive and a desire to relieve human suffering, I will send free of charge to all who desire it, this recipe, in German, French or Enzlisb, With full directions for preparing and using.
