FRIDAY, AUGUST 5, 1870.

City and Neighborhood.

SPEAKING TO-NIGHT AT THE WIGWAM.

HON. KELSON THUSI.EK.

Hon. Nelson Trusler will speak at the Wigwam to-night, and it is hoped there will be a full attendance. Mr. Trusler is an effective speaker, and will discuss the political topics of the day in an able manner. Let the wigwam be crowded.

HON. JOHN INGLE, JR., was in the city yesterday evening.

GARVIN'S Commercial College is in full blast.

"You can't always tell" when you get a note, whether it means "business or not."

ROUGH—A cowhide in the hands of an infuriated female—none of it in ours if you please.

TIIE grand jury adjourned to-day, after transacting all the business before that body.

MR. S. B. DAVIS, editor of the Hoosier State was in the city to-day, and called at this office.

No. 2 Knightstown furnace has "blown out," we learn, thus leaving only the Brazil furnace in blast.

REMBMBER that Hon. Nelson Trusler will speak at the wigwam to-night. There should be a full attendance.

HAVE you seen Tuttle's Chinaman If he only had a cane he would resemble a squirt we see each evening promenading Main street.

ONE of our subscribers proposes to have the name of the Volksblatt changed, to the "Vascillating Dutchman," very appropriate we think.

QUITE a number of our citizens will be off in a few days on a big hunt. There is a great demand for five-gallon kegs and breech-loading shot guns.

DAVID ANDERSON, for stealing a skiff, was yesterday evening, sentenced to the penitentiary for a period of two years. He is an extremely hard looking case.

IF you want a new set of Blank Books the GAZETTE office is the place to get them. We ean make you as good a book as you can get anywhere, and as cheap.

MANY of the cisterns in the city have no water in them at present. We have not had rain enough to fill them for more than two months. Rain is greatly needed in this city.

THE Mayor had two cases this morning, one for a plain drunk by an impecunious "cuss," and another for assault and battery. Both were mulcted in appropriate fine and costs.

THOS. H. BARR & Co., are busy at work preparing for a big fall trade in their valuable medicines, and as they know how to use printing ink they cannot help but succeed.

THE Evansville Courier says that D. W. Voorhees "spoke in a grove adjoining the city,"—referring to his last speech in Terre Hante. The grove is adjoining the Postofflce building.

A LADY who was talked to by her friends about her husband, who was a worthless sort of a fellow, replied, "To be sure he is not as good a husband as he ought to be but he is a powerful sight l)£ttej thajuio husband at all."

NOTWITHSTANDING this is the dull season, the Terre Haute House is doing a fine business, it being well filled daily. CAM is around with a smile.on his countenance, his collar open, and his eorporosity as large as ever.

-s The Journal copies largely from the Volksblatt this morning, and since the two papers have got to see things from the

Msame

stand-point," as "J.

would say, a wonderful change may be expected.

M. M. JOAB has laid off in town lots a five acre tract of land which has been added to the city under the name of ^'Joab's addition," and the plat has been recorded. The tract of land is located between the site for the glass works and the Bloomington road.

THAT EXCURSION.—Our readersshould not forget that the grand excursion to Put-in-Bay nnd Niagara I' ally, will take place next week. By a private note from Mr. W. M. Jones, manager, we learn that all the arrangements for a pleasant trip have been made. The excursion train will leave Indianapolis on Monday morning at 4:20. Tickets can be had at the office of the Indianapolis and St. Louis Railroad Depot, here as well as full infor. mation respecting the excursion. Such an opportunity to make the round trip to Put-in-Bay for $11:50, or to the Falls for $20, may not soon occur again, and we would advise all who wish to make such a trip, to embrace the present opportunity. They will have every attention paid to their wants, as far as may be on the trip, and we predict that it will prove a crand success.

CAPITALISTS must of course see the importance of erecting small tenement houses for rent. There is now, and has been for months past, great demand for small tenement houses in Terre Haute. Scarcely a day passes but we are asked, 'Do you know of a house to rent The investment would be a good oue, and certainly capitalists would greatly enhance the value of their property, and advance the interests of the city. We hope that some one will undertake such an enterprise. It will pay them well, and prove a great accommodation to many who are now put to great inconvenience. Who will embark in this enterprise?

THE Journal alludes to the fact, this morning, that Republicans gave the editor of the Volksblatt one hundred dollars, because he went to them, and, making a poor mouth, said his enterprise was not paying him, and that paper calls it a "bribe." If it was a bribe, it was solicited by the proprietor of the paper. We take notice that he accepted the money, and not only that, but the promise of $50 from the Democracy. But the best of the joke is, that the Volksblatt had to disgorge, and is out the $100 in cash, and the greater part of its subscribers and advertisers. The less the Journal has to say about this, the better.

WE WOULD again remind the people of the importance of cleaning their back yards and alleys. The season of sickness is about here, and if it may not be entirely prevented, it may at least be mitigated by a proper cleaning of the alleys and the premises of citizens. We have more than once urged this important matter on the people, but have again been requested to do so, inasmuch as so much depends upon it. Carelessness about the cleanliness of the premises o* private residences, is wholly inexcusable. Clean up.

THE Archives, at Bowling Green, of this week, publishes the following: "On last Saturday, a young man named Mr. Albert Zenor, who was working at Atkinson's saw-mill, in Jackson township, had his head and face horribly mangled on a circular saw. The skull was cut through to the brain, and the nose almost severed from his face. Quite a large piece of the skull has been removed. The brain was considerably broken, and Drs. Duffield and Gilfillan, attending physicians, thinks there is scarcely a possibility of recovery."

A MAN by the name of Cummings amused himself in Marshall, the other day, by exhibiting in a box, with a glass cover, a rattlesnake, about five feet long, and having ten rattles. His snakeship was caught on Mill Creek. We once knew a bar-room-keeper who kept a pet of this kind in his shop, which he was wont to exhibit to his customers, and, it is said, would handle it as familiarly as if it were a canary bird. No such birds "in ours," if you please.

A great many 18 year old boys gave their lives to the cause of the country, but the extra-loil Mose

when the fighting was at hand.—Journal. And while these 18 year old boys were giving their lives for the cause of the country, what was "cx^ra-sympathizing" D. W. V. doing Where did he bury his dead or how many speeches did he make for the "not another man, nor another dollar" policy of the great Democratic party?

THE Marshal of this city and the Sheriff ot the county are of the opinion that Hillman the man who is now in jail, on the charge of attempted outrage on a little beggar girl, in this city, knows something of the double murder, which was committed at Indianapolis some time since. We learn that Chief of Police Paul who visited this city a few days ago to interview Hillman, is of a different opinion.v.:

INDIANA ASBURY UNIVERSITY.—We are pleased to learn from the Greencastle Banner, that the Trustees of this institution have resolved to erect a new College edifice at once on the grounds immediately east of the old building. The demand for a larger and more modern building, to accommodate the growing interests of "Asbury," has long been lelt, and now that the work has been commenced, we hope it wilt be pushed forward writh ena

BASE BALL.—This city used to boast of a first class club, and as the weather is getting cool and pleasant we would like to see the old club re-organized and see if they can't "whoop up" some of those chaps that come over from our neighboring hamlets and clean out our "spring chickens." Get together, boys, and practice a little, then send them a "glove."

JOHN CHAMBERS, the good natured gentlemanly conductor of the Indianapolis Accommodation, got a severe caning last night, and we are glad of it. It was gold headed and cost $50. No "I guess not," John won't go tochurch next Sunday either.:,-What does lie want with lavender kids

POPULAR.—Mr. James Ferry, conductor on the E. & C. R. R., who has for years acted in that capacity, is one of the most popular conductors on any road in the west. He is a candidate for the nomination for Sheriff on the Democratic ticket in Vanderburgh county, and if the Democracy choose him, and he should be elected, will make as honest and faithful a sheriff as he has been a conductor on the road. He has a host of friends here as well as all along the road.

LOOK OUT for the Indian Doctor. He holds forth Saturday evening at 8 o'clock on the corner of 4th and Main streets. Ladies and gentlemen, call around there.

THE Burton will case has been set for trial on the 20th of September, and not after the October election, as erroneously stated by a morning paper.

THE Parke House at Rockville is well kept, and our people going over to that little city will do well to call and see Capt. Foote.

Trrr, first number of an independent paper was published in Rockville yesterday.

THE New York Circus show will be here on the 18th of this month. Circus shows always draw.

THE FLAG on the pole at the wigwam, indicates tlyit ther^ will be speaking there to-night.

ALL pensioners hereafter are to paid be quarterly, that is, on the 4th of March, June, September and December.

THE rubbish in the old court house yard ought to be removed. It is an unsightly pile.

The Indian Doctor—A Generous Oiler. Dr. Fritz, the half-breed Indian, is now on a visit to this city, and has an office at No. 100 Main street, up stairs. He is a physician of great reputation in the treatment of chronic diseases by the proper use of roots, herbs and barks he restores the afflicted to health, in many cases, in a few days' time. Thousands of certificates and recommendations are in his possession and scores of sufferers in this and other States have great reason to rejoice that they once consulted him. He tells disease at a glance, without, asking any questions. During the month of August he will treat the poor free of charge between the hours of 4 and 6, p. M. each day. Those able and willing to pay will call from 9 A.M. to 4 P.M., and as no charge is made for consultation nor examination, the afflicted need have no hesitation in consulting him, as it is left to themselves whether they will take treatment after having an interview.

EDITOR GAZETTE—Inyour issue of yesterday you do me an injustice in saying that the gentleman who received the cowhiding at my hands, E. P. Beauchamp, Esq., came to my room "thinking he was sent for professionally." Such was not the case. He has taken every occasion to slander me, and as I had no one to protect me, I protected myself. He stated in court yesterday that he expected some trick. As to the policeman who was in my room, I will say that he knew nothing of the affair, but was called in by myself to witness the job, and see that it was well done. I paid my fine of thirty dollars, and consider the money well spent in having an opportunity to thrash the scoundrel.

A Force Feed Drill, Operated by Spur Gearing.

NO LOOSE COG WHEELS ABOUT IT!

Impossible to Choke it—The Feed Changed in One Second—Will Sow Any Kind of Grain or Seed, Whether Clean or Foul!

The grain is distributed by means of small double spiral feed wheels working in cups under the hopper these wheels carry the grain upwards 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 fact 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 wiieel and put in another and the cog wheels are loose and liable to be lost. In the

FARMER§'FRIMD DRILL

the wheels are all fastened to the drill, and the feed Is changed by bysimpty moving a. small lever it is done in one second.

THE EMPIRE

Mutual Life Insurance Co.

OF NEW YORK,

Has achiev 1 a success without a parallel in the history of Life Insurance!

A Life Policy, covering $10,000, can be obtained from this Reliable and Progressive Company which will cost the insured (aged 35) only $185.80,

Without any Small Addition for Interest.

This policy will hold good for two yenrswitliout further payments,so that thecash payment of a 310,000 policy in this Company will be equal to only S97.90 per year.

A large number of policies have already taken by some of the best citizens in this candidate for public 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 Wliole-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,

Or upon any of the following gentlemen, who are members of the Board, and who will give any information desired:

Col. W. E. McLEAN, Attorney. W. H. STEWART, Sheriff. Dr. W. D. MULL, Physician. A. F. FOUTS, Liveryman. Hon. G. F. COOKERLY, Mayor. L. SEEBURGER, Butcher. M. SCHOEMEHL, City Treasurer. W. W. JOHNSON, Physician.
