City and Neighborhood.

PROSPECT fair for a good business in the city this week.

COUNCIL meeting on Tuesday night. An important session.

HON. D. W. VOORHEES will speak at Beach's grove to-night.

DANIEL W. VOORHEES will orate tonight. It will be a windy affair.

CROWDS of people in the city on Saturday. The circus show attracted them.

LIFE insurance agents report business in their line dull just at the present time

"J. N." will speak at the corner of Main and Fourth streets on "Wednesday evening.

HON. NELSON TRUSLER will speak at the wigwam on Thursday night, we are informed.

THE Grand Jury organized to-day, but what transpired with that body has not yet been made known.

L. B. LENTS New York Circus will be here on the 18th inst. This is the first season this company has traveled.

COMPLAINT is made of the dogs in the city. Let them be muzzled, and at once, else we shall have cases of hydrophobia.

NICE young men go to see their girls early in the evening, but sing "Shoo Fly" before they get home in the morning.

No CASES of hydrophobia in this city yet, except those manifested by the Journal and Express. It is understood that both are convalescing.

WE would call attention to the notice of Dr. Banning, to be found in another column. It is especially interesting to our physicians.

THE excursion over the new road will probably take place this month. The arrangements are being made, we are informed. It will no doubt be a grand affair.

BY the change of time, which took effect Sunday night, the Vandalia short line will run their night Express through from St. Louis to Indianapolis in eight hours and forty minutes.

THE chap who so far forgot himself as to hug his girl before he reached her residence last evening, is informed that such practices are likely to be observed by those passing. He had better go slow in future.

THE Journal says it is doubtful if the Republicans carry four counties in this district. Certainly that paper is quite charitable. We had supposed that it would not concede to the Republicans a single county. We rather guess the Journal will changc its tune after the second Thursday in October next.

THE: CAUSE OF WOMAN.—Some young journalists are now exerting themselves in writing up "the cause of woman." It is to be hoped that some woman will take pity on those amateur "literatures," and save them from alife of bachelordom. Such a life is horrible to contemplate in fact, the idea is enough to drive one to suicide. For heaven's sake, ladies, take pity, will you, on all such bachelors.

THE Journal and Express attempted to form a mutual "admiration society," on the principle of "you tickle me, and I will tickle you," but it would not work. The Express declared that it was entitled to the most "tickle," to which the Journal dissented in rather emphatic language. We advise the Journal to stand on its dignity, and dare the Express to compare books. ''Great God, on what a slender tbreid "."Hang everlasting things."

THE evening concern says a Democrat who has patronized the Daily Journal for eleven years has quit the paper and com menoed taking the Gazette. That is not a well told lie, because the Daily Journal has been in existence only six years Journal.

We didf rtot say "Daily" Journal. Who Is the liar now? The gentleman referred to, eaid just what we stated, and if the Journal doubts it, we have permission to give the name.' How are von on "bubbles

Murder on Saturday Night. Last Saturday Arasha Bryant and J. D. Murray came to this city to go to the circus, having in company with them two girls. Missing the train on which they, expected to return, they hired a team at one of the livery stables, and drove out to Myers' grocery, on the Lafayette road, and about five miles from the city, when they stopped to get some water. At that place there were two other men, named respectively, Lafayette Meyers and Peter Mitchell, who resided in Clinton. These men were about starting away, and while unhitching the horses, Meyers took offense at something that Bryant had said, and a quarrel ensued, the exact nature of which could not be learned, resulting in Meyers stabbing

Bryant in the right breast with a pocket knife. B"oth Meyers and Mitchell were intoxicated. After Bryant was stabbed he wakled into the house, and fell in the door, expiring in about fifteen minutes after he had been stabbed. The news "of the stabbing reached this city, and Marshal Whiteman and Officers Dan Crowe and Vandeverproceeded atonceto Clinton, where both Meyers and Mitchell were arrested and brought to this place and lodged in jail. Yesterday morning Meyers was taken before His Honor, Mayor Cookerly, and ordered to jail again, to await the action of the Grand Jury in his case to-day. Mitchell was held in bonds as a witness, but failing to give bail, was sent to jail. It appears that there was no cause for the attack on Bryant, and had Meyers not been intoxicated, the affair might not have occurred. This is another of the fearful results of whisky.

MORE HAIR CUTTING ATTEMPTED.— Last Saturday evening about 9 o'clock, a young girl named Alice Simpson was going home with a basket of marketing, and when near an alley in the rear of Mr. Donnelly's residence, some rascal ran out and caught her by the hair, which he attempted to cut ofT. The girl screamed and attracted the eyes of a couple of servant girls of the family of Mr. D., who had been out riding, and who had just returned. They at once ran to rescue the girl, when the rascal fled. The girls give the following description of the man, medium size, side whiskers, light complexion, straw hat, lightcoatand dark pants. This is no doubt the same man who has frequently made attempts to cut hair from ladies' heads in this city. We hope the above description may lead to the arrest and punishment of the fellow as his offense deserves. The police should keep a sharp look out for him.

THE CIRCUS.—The circus on Saturday night was well attended. The pavillion was crowded. Even standing room was hard to find. The chief attraction was the performance of James Robinson, bareback rider, who accomplished the most difficult feats. No man on the "pad" can equal Robinson on bareback. He is the champion rider of the whole world, and of that there can be no mistake. His riding alone is worth the price of entrance. No man on the continent, will dare accept a challenge from Mr. Robinson either for one, or ten thousand dollars. He is the life of the show.

QI'KHY ?—Who got mad on Saturday when an advertising agent for a circus asked him what the circulation of his paper was? Oh, how it does hurt, but you must ke°p a "stiff upper lip," get your heads together and make another raid on the GAZETTE. But pray don't insult strangers when they ask you a fair question. Tell them the truth, that you have no circulation, and that the only reason you get any advertising is that you are the only Democratic paper in the city.

WE have of late heard a good deal of complaint of persons bathing in the river before night sets in. Some time ago a lot of persons were arrested for the violation of the ordinance prohibiting bathing in front of the city, and the parties were punished, but the practice has not been altogether abandoned. Indeed itis quite common of late for persons to thus violate the city ordinance. Policemen should look after parties who are in the habit of bathing, and have the ordinance full enforced.

Tlie necessity of a paper mill in this city was never so apparent as it has been since Postmaster Burnett and Bayless Hanna opened correspondence in regard to the arrangements for the Dunn-Voorhees joint discussions.—Express.

The Express should have a reward for the above. It is the sharpest thing we have ever seen in that paper, most emphatically the sharpest.

THE Journal urges the formation of a Young Men's Demotratic Club in this county, and suggests that they circulate documents fbr the people to read. This is rather strange advice, since it is a well known fact that Democracy flourishes most where the people read the least. The Journal cannot be in earnest.

THERE was nothing of importance in the Criminal Court this morning, nor will there be until the Grand Jury finds some bills of indictment against parties accused of crimes. It is expected that there will be a good deal of business before this session of the court closes.

THE Phillips boys, who were arrested on charge of robbing, last week, an account of which was published in GAZETTE, were released on Sunday evening, there being no evidence against them that they were engaged in the robberies. The money taken from the older Phillips was returned.

A CERTAIN publisher of newspaper was asked the other day the circulation of his journal by a gentleman who wanted to advertise, but lie would not answer the question, being ashamed that it was so small, no doubt, and therefore lost the advertisement.

A NKW city ordinance is published in our advertising columns this morning.— Journal.

Rather stale reading. The GAZETTE published it last Thursday, but this is in good season for an "old fogy" concern.

IF Postmaster Burnett and B. W. Hanna have arranged for the joint discussion between Hon. Moses F. Dunn, and Hon. D. W. Voorhees, they have not given out the information. It is about time the arrangement wae made, we should say.

THE subject of building a pest house has been before the Council on one or two occasions, but we believe that no definite action has yet been had in regard to it. Certainly this is an important matter, and one which ought to be considered at an early day. The man who was afflicted with small pox, and who was kept under a tent, died on Saturday night and was buried on Sunday. It is not often that there are cases of that disease here but there ought to be a place for keeping the patients, so they would not be exposed, and so as to prevent the disease from spreading.

CEMETER* REPORT.—The following named persons were interred in the City Cemetery during the menth of July:

Delashumutt,... 2

Richard Ball, Philip Kramer, 1 James Show, Ambrose Teush no. E. Nagh, 1 Wm. Wagner,.... Dr. W. D. Mull Jas

J. J. Burnett, 1 Darien B. Otis, 1 S. A. York,

Reuben Gch,. Mell9 Mrs. Mina Easter, 35 Opheiia Ferguson, 17 Robert Mcllray, 25 Lyman Miller, 59 Isaac L. Robinson, 64 William Schriver, 30

The total number is 26, of which there were from the country three, the balance of the oity.

CROWDS of people from the country were in town on Saturday to see the circus. During a portion of the afternoon the sidewalks on Main street were densely crowded.

IT is probable that the case of Dr. Hinton, charged with the crime of producing an abortion, will come up for trial at the present session of the Criminal Court.

THE Mayor had no court this morning, It was all quiet about his office.

Local Mention.

Tlie Medic :»1 Profession.

Dr. Banning, (of the Banning Institute, New York,) invites the medical profession to assemble at the Terre Haute Hotel at 8 o'clock to-niglit for the examination of a new system of Spinal, Abdominal, Uterine, Hernial and Hemorrlioi dal Supports and for a free interchange of sentiment as to their value as auxiliaries to practice.

These instruments purport to so meet the me chanical element of a large class of cases, as to complete a cure where medicine alone lias proved but partially adequate.

Dr. B. will be better known to the profession as the author of a series of papers in the Philadelphia Medieal and Surgical Reporter on Mechanical Therapeutics. He tarries but a day or two, 52dl

The grain is distributed by means of small double spiral feed wheels working in cups under the hopper these wheels carry the grain upvxvrds to a discharge opening in the cup and orce it out, and with it force out straws and other obstructions. It is utterly impossible to choke it, and as evidence of this tact the wheat we have in our sample machine is half chaff, and by turning the wheel it is carried through as well as clean wheat.

It will sow any kind of grain, and in any quantity desired. In other force feed drills to change the feed you remove one cog wheel and put in another and the cog wheels are loose and liable to be lost. In the

Homestead and Pre-emption.

Istatement,plainlyaprinted

HAVE compiled full, concise and complete for the information of persons, intending to take up a Homestead or Pre-Emption in this poetry of the West, embracing Iowa, Dakota, and Nebraska and other sections. It explains how to proceed to secure 160 acres of Rich Farming Land for Nothing, six months before you leave your home, in the most healthful climate. In short it contains just such instructions as are needed by those intending to make a Home and Fortune the Free Lands of the West. I will send one ot these printed Guides to any person for 25 cents. The information alone, which, it gives is worth 05 to anybody. Men who came here two and three years ago, and took a farm,, are to-day independent.

To Youxo MEN.

This country is being crossed with numerous Railroads from every direction to Sioux City, Iowa. Six Railroads will be made to this city within one year. One is already In operation connecting us with Chicago and the U. P. Railroad and two more will be completed before spring, connecting us with Dubuque and McGregor, direct. Three more will be completed witnin a year, connecting us direct with St Paul, Minn., Yankton, Dakota, and Columbus Nebraska, on the U. P. Railroad. The Missou River gives us the Mountain Trade. Tiius it il be seen that no section of country offers such unprecedented advantages for business, speculation and making a fortune, for the country is being populated, and towns and cities are being built, and fortunes made almost beyond behet. Every man who takes a homestead now will have a railroad market at his own door, And

right branch of trade. Eighteen years residence in the western country, and a large portion ot the time employed aa a Mercantile Agent in this country, has made me familiar with all the branches of business and the best -locations in this country. For one dollar remitted to me I will give truthful and definite answers to all questions on this subject desired by such persons. Tell them the best place to locate, and wbat business is overcrowded and what branch is neslected. Address,

O O

THE EMPIRE

Mutual Life Insurance Co.

OF NEW YORK,

Has aehiev a success without a parallel in tlie history of Life Insurance!

A Life Policy, covering 510,000, can be obtained from this Reliable and Progressive Company which will cost the insured (aged 35) only S185.80,

Without any Small Addition for Interest.

This policy will hold good for two years without further payments, so that tlie cash payment of a 810,000 policy in this Company will be equal to only §97.90 per year.

A large number of policies have already taken by some o'f the best citizens in this candidate for publia favor, which is destined to do a large business here, and why should it not, for for notice some of its liberal and distinctive features:

Ordinary Whole-life Policies are Absolutely Non-forfeitable from the Payment of the First Annual Premium.

All Restrictions upon Travel and Residence are Removed, and no Permits Required.

No Accumulation of Interest or Loan? of Deferred Premiums, and no Increase of Annual Payments on any Class of Policies.

The EMPIRE has organized a Board of Insurance, consisting of some of our best and most reliable citizens, to whom all desiring Life Insurance would do well to refer for further information, before taking policies elsewhere. Call at the office of the Board,

On Ohio Street, between 3d and

4th,
