SATURDAY, JUNE 11, 1870.

CHARLES DICKENS is dead.

THE graves of the Confederate soldier* at London Park Cemetery, Baltimore, Maryland, were decorated, yesterday, by several of the ladies of Jialtimoie

vvll°

hold the Southern cause in grateiiil remembrance. A subscription was taken up for the Stonewall Jackson monument, by which §700 were raised.

At Green Mount Cemetery a few boutiiern soldiers are buried, and then* craves were strewed with flowers, but the grave that exceeded all the

rest

in its .ofuse

decorations, was that of J. ilkes Booth, the assassin of Abraham Lincoln. Upon the green mound there was a pyramid ot flowers. This tribute of affectionate regard was not laid upon the assassir.'s grave by the surviving members ol his own family or any of his kindred. By the side of him sleeps his illustrious father, and around him are the graves of near relatives but upon these there Avas not a single bud.

We take the above paragraph from the telegraphic correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercal. We do net censure the Southern men or the Southern women for streAving the graves of the Confederate soldier Avith flowers. It

AVOUIC!

unchristian for us to do so, and unnatural for them not to. The .Southern women loved the Southern soldier, and through all the vicssitudes of-fchat long and bloody struggle, stuck to him with all the lcrvor of a woman's afibction. We can not help but admire this. Although the cause in Avhich the Confederate soldier fought was a bad one, still many of them Avere sincere in their convictions. They fought for an idea, and they hazarded all in behalf of that idea. The Southern Avomen were particularly enthusiastic in their devotion to tiie rebel cause. They clung to it to the last—and Ave rather admire them for it. The loyalty of the North triumphed—that is all the true men of the North wanted,—all they ought to have.

But how any one can deem it proper, and consistent, and right to strew flowers on the grave of the assassin Booth, Ave cannot understand. He Avas a murderer, cold, calculating, premeditating murderer. There is not one extenuating circumstance connected Avith his most diabolical assassination of Mr. Lincoln. He had never done Booth any harm, or any one else. They Avere strangers to each other, and had the President observed the murderer approaching him on that fatal night, he never would have si'spected his intention. Mr. Lincoln Avas a great and good man, and his "taki ig off" was one of the most devilish acts of modern times. An act so demoniacal, that it will echo down through the long vista of coming yeais, as one of the blackest offenses in the annals of crime.

It seems that Booth's grave was profusely decorated Avith flowers, thereby distinguishing it from the graves of Confederate dead Avho Avere buried there. And this Avas done by women. How debased must be the creatures Avho Avould thus show an approbation of the foul and bloody deed of this assassin. We hope, for the love true men bear to the sex, that none but the most abandoned Avere engaged in this act.

Tne Avoman Avho would strew flowers over the grave of J. Wilkes Booth, would do what J. Wtllces Booth did and that class of women in this country —if there are any, Avliich God forbid— Avho sympathize with this act, are pestiferously corrupt, and and dangerously immoral.

Excursionists Ilolfbeii.

Dr. CroAV, 'a member of the Louisville City Council, and one of the excursionists, Avas robbed on Wednesday night, at tho'Southern, of his pocket-book, containing §95. The robbery Avas committed before tho Doctor had retired to his room.

Mr. Berry, a prominent druggist of Terre Haute, was robbed, on Wednesday night, of a gold watch and chain, worth $250, and j$20 in money. Mr. Ikirrv was assigned a room' in which Avere three other men, supposed, of course, to bo gent-le-mon. During the night the3 trio disappeared, and with them the druggists' elects.

Mr. J. B. Edmonds, of the! Tcrre Haute Journal, Avas relieved of §1 75, Avhichj he hadjjleft in his pantaloons pocket, having praciui'on to put tho .bulk of his money into an inside vest poket.

Our police believe that these depredations Avero committed by thieves Avho cmseves-a ong th par-

We take the above' rom the St. Louis Democrat of yesterday. The "three other men supposed, of course, to be gentlemen," Avere Win. B. Warren, a heavy 'oork man of this city, John G. Crain, Judge of the Vigo Criminal Court, and Chas. E. Hos ord, an attorney and counsellor at

laAV,

a this bar.^EThis trio "dis

appearing" fro in the room of Mr. Berry "during the night," we must confess, looks rather 'suspicious. However, "such a thing might be, even in St. Louis, that men would leave their beds at night for something else, besides Avatch stealing. This of itself is not proof conclusive against them, and this community ought to suspend its judgment until it hears from this trio of "supposed gentlemen," themselves.

We must say Ave have never heard anything so serious, charged against "this trio before, and think there certainly must be some mistake about it. However, like Mr. Lincoln's rat hole there is something connected Avith it, which needs looking into. "Disappearing at night," ah ha! ha! ha!

IT MR. W. P. FISHBACIC assumes editorial $ ill charge of the Journal on Monday. E. W. Halford remains on the paper as city edc£ itor.—SetUincl. tfc We welcome you, Mr. Fisliback. But jn remember that the press of the country should be the guardian on the watch

No jwer, there to expose corruption whershe yer it finds it, and to preserve the liberS as ties of this people from the grasp of great monopolies, and ten thousand corrupt

rings, which now threaten them, mi Halford is a good "city,editor." °\j What do you propose to do with HolSi loway, the "blood and thunder editor?"

w! SINCE the opening of spring a steady wi current of travel has been moving across the Atlantic from America to Europe. Hi Every steamer which has left has been si| filled to its utmost capacity, and more P| passengers could readily have been carried had there been accommodations for them. This exodus will probably continues for some weeks to come, and the total'number of persons engaged in it will probably amount to not far from 20,000.

THE GRAND EXCURSION TO ST. LOUIS,

A €5rand Success and a The Sew KaH roal a ml ,,"osp,»cts—

On Wednesday last, as the readers of the GAZETTTB

are aware, the grand ex

cursion to St. Louis in nonor of the openLouis, Valid alia and Terre At about a

ing of the St Haute Railroad Avas made. quarter after 10 A. M. the train, which was composed of 10 magnificent passenger coaches, and one caboose or baggage car, left the depot. In a few moments the bridge which spans the Wabash had been passed, and the train sped along [at a rapid rate. At the depot, the cars Avhich had been prepared for the Terre Haute delegation—of which there were 100, including many of our most prominent citizens—was joined by the cars from Indianapolis, which contained about 150 excursionists. The Mayor of Louisville, and quite a number of other prominent and distinguished gentlemen of that nlace, had joined the excursion party at Indianapolis. The party from Indianapolis consisted of members of the Common Council and other prominent citizens, members of the press, &c.

The Avhole train Avas under the charge of Major Jno. E. Simpson, Assistant Snperintendent of the Indianapolis division of the road, Avho Avas particularly accommodating to the excursionists. It Avas especially oAving to his presence that the excursion Avas one of so much pleasure to all. President McKeen, and all the officers of the road Avere unsparing in attention, and all spoke in the highest terms of praise of the gentlemen under whose management this great enterprise had been pushed forward to a successful termination, thus linking by another route, Indiana to the great State of Missouri, and to all the West.

The following is a partial list of the names of those Avho attended the excursion from this place. We have not space to give a full list of the names:

Col. R. W, Thompson, W. N. and Mrs. Mrnshall, Judge Crane, Demas Deming, President 1st National Bank, and Mrs. C. Patterson, W. B. Tuell, Vice Pres't Board of Trade,. Mrs- W. B. Tuell, W. Coats, J. B. Hager and M. V. O'Connell, city councilinen, Col. Morris, sapt. Clay coal Co., Capt. S. II. Potter, Geo. H. BrokaAV and lady, Ira and Mrs. Delano and daughter, Major O. J. Smith, Col. W. E. McLean, W. O. Frost, W. Mack aid lady, F. R. Payne, Miss Jennie E. Patchell, Dr. J. C. Patchell and lady,J. H. O'Boyle, A. C. Mattox, M. C. Rankin, W. II. Sage, Gen. John Scott, N. Katzenbach, E. Ohm, C. W. Marcount, R. L. Ball, T. C. Buntin, of the Terre Haute House C. C. Smith, W. Warren, N. Andrews, C. E. Hosford, J. R. T'lJOtSO'i, Jas. B. Lyons, Chas. Kelly, L. Goodwin, P. E. Puttie, L. A. Burnett, Prof. Tlios. Spencer, J. W. English, Maj. D. S. Donoldson, S. McGill, U. S. Collector Dr. John A. Wood and lady, A. B. Burton, A. Arnaud. .*-"*-'1!

The train moved on rapidly after crossing the river, and leaving here at 10:15 arrived at Marshall at 11. The road Avhich it is known has just been completed, is in splendid condition, and remarks of surprise that it was so smooth were general. There are few old roads in the West in abetter condition.

Arriving at Marshall, the trainstopped but long enough to allow a few persons to join the excursion party, when it passed on. Notwithstanding it rained hard, a large number of people were at the depot at Marshall to greet the excursionists, and express their joy at the opening of the road. The train arrived at Martinsville at 11:40, A. M., and at Effingham at 1:50, P. M., Avliere another party joined the excursionists. The countiy through Avhicli the road passes to Effingham is mostly level, and is Avell adapted to farming purposes, being Arery fertile. The opening of this new road will! develop it, and we shall see that Ter Haute will be greatly benefitted b.y access to this new trade.

Wine and excellent lunch had been-pre-pared, and servants furnished to wait on the party, so that the arrangements for the comfort and pleasure of all were complete.

The further along the road, the better the country, and the more highly cultivated it Avas found to be. Some of the finest and best cultivated farms in the State of Illinois lie along the line of this road. At 3:2.3, the train arrived at Vandalia. This is an old place, and many of the houses look as if they had been built half a century ago. The country around it, or that can be seen from the line of the railroad, is broken, with short timber, but there are many very fine farms to be seen, and many magnificent residences. Beyond Vandalia and in the neighborhood of Greenville, is excellent country, Greenville itself being quite a flourishing place.

At Highland', oue of the most beautiful, in fact the most beautiful place on the whole road, and which is surrounded by a most delightful country, Avith vineyards and farms in the highest state of cultivation, the delegation Avas met by a committee from St. Louis. Oil the arrival of the train at Highland, a salute was fired by the Highland people, and after that Mr. C. I. Filley, of St. Louis, made an address of welcome to the excursionists, in Avhich he assured all that the people of St. Louis were proud to have them in their midst. He was responded to by Col. R. W. Thompson, in the following neat speech:

SPEECH OF COL. THOMPSON. Gentlemen, Ave needed not to hare been cold by you of the liberality and generosity and hospitality of the people ot the city of St. Louis, for. we know of ourselves, and Ave came, Avhile sharing it, to assure you Ave are one with you in sympathy as in interests, and that hereafter in tne groAvth of this great northwest, the portion of country represented to-day by this delegation Avill share with you in the common honor and the common glory which shall result in our triumph. [Cheers.] We knoAv that this great Avest of ours is destined to control the great and vast in terests of this country if we shall remain united if Ave remain as firmly bound together, as our commercial cities are by these iron bands, upon which we are brought to-day and as we go forward to the great Father of Waters, we assure you that we are one in sympathy and interest Avith you. And as we shall share your generons hospitality to-morrow, we -.feel assured that we shall bear back to those whom Ave represent that common sentiment which moves through your hearts and ours, and Avhich shall stimulate ucm hereafter in looking out for the great northwest, that great triumgh Avhich shall' reflect honor npon us all. We thank you. in advance for your generous hospitality and kindness. (Cheers) .". 'f''

Leaving Highland, the*train reached East St. Louis at about P. M., where omnibusses were waiting to transfer the passengeis to that great city of the West. A salute was fired at East St. Louis, when the train arrived. About a quarter after 7 o'clock, the excursionists arrived in St. Louis, and were comfortably quartered at the Southern and other hotels.

THURSDAY.

On Thursday morning according to previous arrangements, omnibusses Avere sent to the A'arious hotels for the excursionists,who were taken to the wharf and thence went on board the I?elle of Alton, a magnificent steamboat, sufficiently large to accommodate many more. There Avere about 650 went on board, and in a short time, while the band played, the boat left its mooring, and moved up the river, giving the visitors an opportunity of having a fine view of the city. This grand steamer Avas commanded by Capt. Jas. A. Bruner, S. A. Hagelan, Clerk, Avho are qnite affable and obliging gentlemen. The boat proceeded to the upper part of the city, and then turning doAvn stream glided gracefully like a thing of life, to Carondelet, where the visitors AArent ashore, and took a look at the iron works. The process of "tapping" an iron furnace, it Avas expected would have been witnessed, but the furnace had become so chilled that the visitors had to go aAvay without the sight. The party, after looking at the iron works returned to the fcoat, and in a short time she commenced making the return trip. Strawberries and ice cream, and wines of all kinds, had been proArided for the excursionists, and Avere enjoyed by all.

As the train was proceeding down the river, a number of the excursionists collected in the cabin, and Judge Geo. Gordon, of Indianapolis, in behalf of the ladies and gentlemen assembled, presented a beautiful diamond pin to H. W. Hibbard, general freight agent of the road. Brief speeches Avere made, and immediately, Major Jno. E. Simpson, Assistant Superintendent, was made the recipient of a gold watch of the value of $450—Judge Gordon making the presentation speech. It Avas indeed quite an enthusiastic affair.

On the return trip, Mayor Cole was called npon and made a neat speech of welcome to the excursionists. In the course of his remarks he said: "We strike hands with you to-day upon the bosom ot that mighty stream Avhich bears our common commerce to tne far off ocean. We greet your as a brotherhood indeed, and wish.you and yfijir gallant State and beautiful cities every prosperity and every joy which earth can afford.

His speech was loudly and enthusiastically applauded. When he had concluded hi3 speech of welcome, our fellow citizen, Col. R. W. Thompson, Avho is always ready when ealled on to do honor to Terre Haute, or to our great State of Indiana, replied, and said among his speech:

We are tied to you, not only by iron bands, but by chords of generous sympathy and while Ave shall exult in your prosperity, Ave beg permission to contribute to it by pouring our Avealth and our enterprise into your lap. [Applause]

In the year 1849 I visited your city for the first time, upon the occasion of your Pacific Railroad convention. I was then impressed, as I am HOAV, Avith your geographical position in the great NorthAvest. I saw these vast tributaries pouring their wealth into your lap, and your then little city sat here at the converging point of comnierGG and trade, second to no part of the Avorld. From that time to this I have been expecting to see realized my prophecy of her future greatness, and am happy to be nblft to say that witness it horo today [applause], not only in the intelligence of her population, and the beauty of her fair daughters, but in her extended commerce and manufactures.

He Avas folloAved by Hon. Win. M. McPherson, who made quite an eloquent speech, in Avliich he complimented Col. T. and the people of Indiana in general. At the close of Mr. McPlierson's speech, there were loud calls for "Mack," and accordingly Mr. Wm. Mack, of this city, made a feAV humorous remarks, which called forth much laughter/

Arriving at the wharf, a proces ion AAras formed Avhich moved to the Merchants' Exchange, where Mr. Lewis, the President, introduced Lieutenant Governor Stanard, AVIIO addressed the audience briefly. We copy one paragraph in his speech. Addressing the excursionists, he said

Although you, from Indiana, have a great ana glorious State, and you from Ohio also, and you from Kentucky also although you, on account of your affection for those States, may believe that those States shine brighter tnan any stars in the galaxy of the Nation, Ave congratulate ourselves that, if Ave do not shine so bright we belong to the same beautiful constellation. [Applause.]

Hon. H. C. Newcomb, of Indianapolis, was called upon to respond, who, in the course of a brief speech, thus alluded to Terre Haute:

Citizens are here, also, from Terre Haute, that jeAvelof the prairie, ornamenting and sk?rting the western line of the territory of Indiana. We have come here because we Avish to say to you this much: acting under the impulse that your Lieutenant Governor has spoken of, the country is progressing in magnitude and importance. We rejoice that the cause of division that once kept us estranged has been swept aAvay, and that Ave can march on side by side, shoulder to shoulder, in this great march of progress, common sharers and inheritors in the honor of our common Republic.

.- An exhibition of tlie'fire department was made, and after that In carriages the visitors were taken to Shaw's Garden at LoAver Grove Park. These are indeed most lovely gardens, and are so at all seasons of the year. But more space has been tak$a iR report already then was at first intended. The excursion was a grand success from the beginning to the ending. Nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of those who attended, HacT'ihe weather been fairer, a greater nnmber of ladies would have gone on the excursion no doubt, but then there were enough to make all feel cheerful and happy. Returning yesterday, it was most pleasant. No accident of anyJsfiid occurred during the whole trip, which is a credit to the officers of the road for good management. The following are the officers, names: $ I 1

President—W. R. McKeen. General Superintendent—G. R. Peddle. Superintendent Vandalia Division—J. W. Coulogue.

Assistant Superintendent in charge Indianapolis Division-—Major J. E. Simpson. General Freight Agent—W. H. Hibbard.

A word for all the officers of the road, and especially President McKeen, and this sketch shall close. To all is due especial praise.' Mr. McKeen has worked earnestly and faithfully from the beginning, and with such gentlemen ashimsef pflfd Chauncey Rose, such an enterprise tonrid not prove a failure. The opening of this new road will long be remembered by the people who attended the excursion, as one of the pleasant events of their lives.

plain—bad Digestion—causes imperfect nutrition, and consequently the circulation is feeble, the soft tissues lose their tone and elastic- jf ity, and the tongue becomes pale, broad, and frequently covered with a pasty, white coat. This condition soon shows itself in roughness of the skin, then in ERUPTIVE and ULCERATIVE diseases, and, when long continued, resuits in serious lesions of the Brain, Liver, Lungs, or Urinary Apparatus. Much, very much, suffering is caused by impure blood. It is estimated by some that one-fifth of the human family are affected with scrofula of some form.

When the blood is pure, you are not so liable to any disease. Many impurities of the Blood arise from impure diseases of large cities. Eradicate every impurity from the fountain of life,

and good spirits, fair skin, and vital strength will return to you.

WONDERFUL EFFICACY

In the Cure of Diseases of the

Diseases of the Kidneys and* Bladder.

When the Urine is voided in small quantities at the time, or when there is a disposition to Urinate more frequently than natural, or when the Urine is high colored, or scalding, with weakness in the small of the hack, it should not be trilled with or delayed, but Koskoo *1 -1" should be taken at once to remedy the difficulty, before a lesion of the organs takes place.

Most of the diseaees of the Bladder originate r| .' from those of the Kidneys, the Urine being imperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, prove irritating to the Bladder and Urinary passages. When we recollect that medicine never reaches the Kidneys except through the general circulation of the Blood, we see how necessary it is to keep the Fountain of Life Pure.

Diseases *of the Nervous System.

Almost nine-tenths of our people suffer from nervous exhaustion, and are, therefore, liable to its concomitant evils of mental depression, confused ideas, softening of the brain, insanity and complete breaking down of the general health. Thousands are buffering to-day with broken down nervous systems, and, unfortunately, tobacco, alcohol, late hours, over-work, (mental and physical), are causing diseases of the nervous system to increase at a fearful rate.

The symptoms to which the diseases of the nervous system give rise, may be stated, as follows: A dull, heavy feeling in the head/sbmetimes more or less severe j)ain or. headachy Periodical Headache, Dizziness, Noisesor Ringing in the Head Contusion 01 Ideas: Temporary Loss of Memory Dejection of Spirits Starting during Sleep Bad Dreams ."Hesitation in Answering Questions Dullness of Hearing Twitching of the Face and Arms, &c., which, if not promptly treated, lead to Paralysis, Delirious, Insanity, Impotency, Appoplexy, &<?.,

Persons unacquainted with the structure and ,,4", functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the

IMPORTANCE of their HEALTHY ACTION. Regular and sufficient action of the Kidneys is as important, nay, eve^i more so, than regularity of the bowels. The Kidneys remove from the Blood those effete matters which, if permitted to remain, would speedily destroy life*. A total suspension of the urinary "discharges will occasion death in from thirty-six to forty-eight hours.
