City and Neighborhood.
OUR LOCAL has gone to excursc, and left us without an item. If we fail as a local, don't find fault, as this weather is "orful" oil hunting items, and besides, wo are confined to the sanctum today, while getting our boots lialf-soled!
U. BET.
OUTRAGEOUS.—To think that Supt. Peddle woi^ld insist upon Cam JJuntin and Mayor Cookerly occupying the same seat on the train to-day. Too much lor the narrow guage road!
COUNCIL.—We would call espccial attention to the proceedings of. the City Council in to-day's paper. It contains much of importance to our readers and will repay a careful perusal.
NEW.—A tune played by the Band off the Comique last evening on Fifth street. Our devil says he has whistled the old tunes so long, that ho had to get a glove stretcher to take the pucker out of his mouth.
RUSH.—The News Boys made a raid on us at 5 P. M. last evening, and we were obliged to put the DAILY GAZETTE forms on the press and work a Second Edition. All right boys, we have the fastest presses in the city, and will give you papers as fast as you want them.
WEEKLY. Advertisements for our Weekly, which has the largest circulation of any paper in this Congressional District, must be handed in by 9 A. M. tomorrow, to insure insertion and on Friday afternoon for the News iloy's dition of the DAILY GAZETTE.
BATHS.—Tho Terrc Haute Hotel Company have got their Artesian Baths in operation. Persons who feel that a little cold water would do them good, should call, and they wiil find a gentleman in attendance who wiil show them all the mysteries of the institution.
DAILY GAZETTE.—Our institution is one week old to-day, and is "right pert" for a youngster. Our edition yesterday readied 800 copies, and a look at our advertis ing columns will satisfy 3ron that the poo plo of Terrc Haute can appreciate,a "live paper." Come on, there is room for all it is a small job to make the paper larger
Pic NIC.—Tho Baptist pic nic yesterday, we learn, was a decided success, both financially and for fun. Not a mishap occurred to mar the pleasure of the crowd, and after the shower in tho morning, the air was cool and bracing and gave the party an enormous appetite. Notwitli standing the amount it took to go around, thero was at least "forty baskets" of loaves and fishes left over.
FUN FOR THE BOYS.—Don't forget that there is to bo a first class exhibition of dancing, negro minstrelsy, etc., to-night at the Comique—and it is to close with a sot-to between some of the champions of the ring. Barney Aaron, the champion light-weight of the world, is in the city, also Sam Collyer, Dick Hollivvood, and others. See advertisement and programmes.
EXCURSION.—The grand excursion train ydto St. Louis left "on time" this morning with a goodly crowd, among them many of our most influential citizens, and they aro bent on having a good time. The train was a beautiful one, in charge of ex--perienced men, and no doubt will arrive ^safely at its destination, and surprise our V" friends at St. Louis by the good looks, es-
Apecially

the ladies (can't say muefct for the

The Board of Health submitted the following report, in regard to the sanitary condition of the city, which was received and ordered filed:
To the Honorable Mayor and Common Council of tin'. Cdy of Terre Haute GKNTLEMKN The Board of Health would respectfully state, presuming that we,have been created to carry out certain purposes deemed essential to'the good order ana management of tho municipal government, l'eel ourselves crippled in our efforts to do so, cither through tlie imperfect nature of certain ordinances, or the ineffectual application ol' tliem. Also from the meagre and i)Jy defined nature of our duty, and power (if we have any) to perform. True it is, that few il'any places containing so great a population as Terre Ilaute are so cleanly, and by nature so admirably adapted for perfect drainage. But with these advantages we are sorry to sav that we iind great disregard to tne laws of health and decency in loathsome accumulations of filth in alleys and other concealed places. Section 27th, page 79 of revised ordinances to 1861, would seem sufficient to correct this evil—but it does not. because of the difficulty in finding "the person or persons so offendin^." We are informed, however, that therevised ordinances now about complete so amend the one referred to, as we hope may obviate objections. Sections 28-9 seem alike ineffectual for the same reason. Individually and coljectively your Board has called the attention of the proper ot'.icers, as also per ons offending Section i0, page 80, in relation to the obstruction of side waiks, streets, &c., and yet year after year pedestrians are forced to stumble over or go around the same old stumbling blocks. This ordinance is surely plain enough, and ought to be enfoiivd.* In this connection we would call your attention to tlie imperfect construction and character of the privy vaults. Many are not deep enough, and all art.' defective in this, that owing to the porous nature of our soil the accumulations in them permeate the earth and when adjacent towel render ng the water offensive and unhealthy. To obviate this wo would recommenf that vaults hereafter to be constructed, be walled with brick and plastered with cement. This plan will in time necessitate the removal of such accumulations.
Complaint is made to us occasionally of the impure character of the milk furnished by those engaged in the sale of this essential article. Not being in possession of suitable apparatus for testing its adulterations and impurity, we can only say that we believe such adulterations if they exist consist cliietiy in the addition of wate--— and removal ot the cream. As this is a matter in which we are all more orless interested and as we are wholly at the mercy of those engaged in the business—it becomes a matter worthy of investigation.
Your Board are uot ambitious to undertake the removal of nuisauces or infringe upon the duties pertaining to other officers but as conservators of the health aud cleanliness of our beautiful city, we are earnestly desirous that our efforts should be heartily supported by your bodv and the officers under your control.
We would again call the attention of your honorable body to the necessity of erecting a suitable building for a Pest House. In view of the increasing population of our city, and the frequent visitations of Small Pox, humanity aud decency demands that we provide a "proper place of refuge for the unfortunate who may be overcome by this loathsome disease. The Board of Health has from time to time for many years past, called the attention of the Common Council ty the necessity aud importance of this subject, until we almost feel that it is useless to make any further eftort. But from a sense of duty we now refer to it, hoping that it may claim your prompt and earnest attention, we find ourselves Involved in some perplexity in suggesting a suitable location for such a building. It would be desirable to have it as near the city as possible. But as its presence would be objectionable—and tend to lessen the value of property within the corporate limits. We feel inclined to recommend that it be placed on tho farm adjacent to the County Asylum. Any suggestion upon this subject -will be gratefully received.
In conclusion, we would say that vaccination uaving proved an effectual means of preventing the spread of Small Pox, or if incurred so modi-
as
r®uder
KJ 11}"ut
it harmless, we would res-
recommend that an ordinance be
iHto efi'~ct as speedily as possi
ble, compelling aU children to be vaccinated before entering our common schools. Respectfully submitted. 8. J. YOUNG, Secy.

The remains were interred in the cemetery. RESOLUTIONS ON THE DEATH OF MICHAEL
DODSON.
At a meeting of Fort Harrison Lodge, No, 157, I. O. O. F., held at their Lodge Rooms in the city of Terre Haute, June 7, 1870, the following resolutions were submitted and unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That whereas, Brother Michael Dodson has been by death removed from among us, we have thereby suffered the loss of a worthy and faithful brother one who, by his virtues and kindness of heart won the friendship and esteem of all his acquaintance, and'that by us he will ever he held in the kindliest remembrance.
That to his widow and family, we tender our heartfelt sympathy in their loss and bereavement.
That this Lodge will attend his funeral, and thus, together, pay to him our last duties.
That this call of Death for another of our fraternal hand, should admonish us remaining to work with dilligence and zeal for our own good and that of our fellows, that when we also shall pass from this to the Grand Lodge on the other side of life, we may be found in all respects worthy to the welcome of a true Odd Fellow by our Father and brothers.
Upon motion, it was ordered that the resolutions bo spread upon the records, published in the city papers, and a copy sent to the family of the deceased.

ADAMS EXPRESS COMPANY.—Thisold reliable company have their office fitted up in good shape on Fifth street next door to the GAZETTE office, and are doing a thriving business in their line. Upon the opening of the new road to St. Louis, they will have two through runs each way from Cincinnati. Their agent, Mr. Will. Bryant, is very obliging and accomodating, and it is a pleasure to do business with such a man. Too many men occupying similar positions are as unapproachable as a Brevet Brigadier General commanding a convalescent camp. Call in and see Will and his pleasant assistants, and if you have any business, it will be transacted in good shape.
WEDDING. At the Congregational Church this evening, Mr. Harry Rickard, of Indianapolis, will lead to the hymenial altar, Miss Jennie Grover of this city. W have known Harry for a long time, and although Miss Jennie is the "flower of the flock," we say, take her, for we know she could not have done better. The attendants are to be Mr. E. J. Covault, of Indianapolis, W. A. Brown, of Greencastle, and Chas. M. West, also of Indianapolis, Miss Sattie Early, Miss Helen McGregor, and Miss Plorence Turner. They do not propose making an extended wedding tour until July, when they will take a trip east, visiting New York, Long Branch, Saratoga &c. They havo our best wishes for their future happiness.
STREETS.—Our streets are in splendid condition, and the weather is cheering for all out door purposes, and wo venture to say that there is no place in the country where more advantage is taken of pleasant weather than in Terre Haute. Almost every lady has her "turn-out," many of them are line drivers, and every evening our streets are filled by "gay rigs" run exclusively by the ladies. This is as it should be, for while the husbands are busily engaged in tho persuit ot money, (or a cool place to drink lager), the ladies, God bless them, have on all their good clothes, and with a fine horse and carriage, are out for a drive, breathing fresh air, and looking as rosy and sweet as need be. Don't keep your wife housed up at home, but buy her a pony and let her enjoy hercelf.

THE Empire
Life'lnsurance
Company
paid the estate of the late Mr. Koch the sum of §800 insurance. The policy called for $1,500, but the Company insisted on a compromise and got it.—Journal.
We learn that tho facts in this case are as follows: Mr. K. had made an application for a policy, hut had not paid one cent to the Company, and the policy did not arrive until after his death, and then the Company without any legal responsibility paid the widow §800. We do not suppose that the Journal knew .the facts in the case, and have been imposed upon by tho agent of some other Company. The Empire stands high, and in the absence of the agent we have taken the pains to ascertain the facts in the case, and they are as above stated.
RAIN.—It commenced raining at an early hour this morning, aud has continued up to the hour of going to press. This is rough on pio nics, but splendid for the farmers. "It is an ill wind that blows no good."

SQUARE TOES.—While rambling to-day, we dropped into tho store of 0'Bojrle Bros., and found them full of business, having just received a big lot of boots and shoes from "Bosting"—and among tho lot w?re some slippers for the ladies that were very beautiful. John says he is "falling off" some, but thinks when cool weather comes lie will fatten xip again. Call and sco the new stock.
SUBSCRIBERS who fail to receive the DAILY GAZETTE regularly will please leave word at the counting room, and wo wiil try to remedy it. Be a little patient it takes some time togetthe boysbroke in. Tliejr mean well, but some times have "bad luck" or get a "little lazy can't say hieli it is.
PAN HANDLE.—Among the excursionists to St. Louis this morning, wo noticed Mr. W. L. O'Brien, the general ticket agent of the Pan Handle route. Ho is up and doing, and is looking around to see where he can put in a few coupons, marked "via the Pan Handle Route."
POSTPONED.—The pic nic to Marshall, of the ^Good Templars, did not leave this morning as advertised, on account of the rain, but will start at the hour advertised to-morrow. Boys, this won't do, you must not bo afraid of a little "cold water," for that is flie basis of your organization.
PERSONAL.—W. A. Brown, Mayor of the city of Greencastle, called on us to-day. We found him a very pleasant gentleman and with such a Mayor that beautiful city ought to improve, as ho appears to be a live man, and his ideas of what a city ought to bo are good. He is one of the attendants at the wedding this evening.
