The Meeting Last Slight.

The meeting at the wigwam last night was well attended. Professor Tout's brass band furnished the imisie for the occasion, which was excellent. The speaker, Hon. Nelson Trusler, was introduced by Judge Grain. The speaker was enthusiastically received, and on taking the stand, proceeded to review ,the history of the Democratic party in a plain but forcible and earnest inanner. He showed clearly the great extravagance and profligacy of the Democratic paity while in power, and made a comparison of that with the Republican party, showing that the affairs of the State had been well managed during the Republican administration, and that the State was now out of debt—the result of Republican economy. In the course of his remarks, he alluded to the manner in which the affairs of the General Government* were managed, and showed that the public debt was being rapidly reduced.

Mr. Trusler is a plain and earnest speaker, and makes his arguments in strong language. His remarks were listened to with deep interest, and he was frequently applauded during the course of his speech.

Base Ball.

IN speaking of D. W. Vs. speech, the Volksblatt, according to the Journal, its repeater, says: "In conclusion Mr. Voorhees stated that if the Democrats succeeded in obtaining control of the government there would be a great change in the administration of affairs and the people would bo wonderfully benefitted and relieved by the adoption of the great administrative measures of the Democracy."

In part the Volksblatt is correct. The people will be "relieved" of piles of money in the way of additional taxation, and in less than four years have as bi£ a debt saddled on us in Indiana, as when that party turned over the State government to the Republiccuis, to say nothing of what additional! will be made by the general government.

THE Journal has a withering article about J. W. Smith, the colored cadet, calls him a moke and says a great many hard things of the negro who is attempting to make himself useful, and concludes that Smith ought to leave West Point. Intellectually Smith is said to be particularly bright, and that maybe the reason that the Joyrnal has a spite against him. If the negroes were content to remain in ignorance, or worse still, as slaves, to be bought and sold like cattle, the Journal and its co-laborers would not, perhaps, abuse him. If the colored man aspires .tp anything but to be a slave, the Democrats cannot forgive him.

MARSHALL, ILLS, Aug.

Editor Terrc Haute Gazette: I The day is a big one for the base ballists of our town. The Vigos got here about 6:40, and the game arranged between them and the Rockets, of Marshall, was called about S, A. M. .After some difficulty in getting a gentleman to act as umpire, Mr. Wallace Breyschrer, of your town, accepted the position.

The batting of the Vigos, as well as their fielding, was far above the average, while that of the Rockets was very poor indeed, more so than in any game we have ever seen them play. The game was concluded about 11:30, the score standing: Vigos Til Rockets 35

There was a very large attendance from Paris and Terre Haute, and much interest manifested in the game. The Paris club arrived on the grounds at about half past ten, and witnessed the last three innings between the Vigos and Rockets. The Rockets had two or three new men on their nine, which some seem to think accounts for their terrible beating. But I do not. They played very poor, and the Vigos excellent. As the game between the Paris club and Vigos will be called in a few minutes, I close this hastily written letter that I may witness the game between them.

Why oan't we get the GAZETTE here on the evening of its publication, or the morning after? It is always at least two days behind, and sometimes three. 'The mail facilities here have not been improved by its transfer to the railroad, and frequently our mail from the east goes around by St. Louis, in consequence, I suppose, of being sent from Terre Haute on the Terre Haute and Alton road.

Proclamation of President Grant-Xot Ready to Issue a Neutrality Proclamation—Receipt. of Sfapoleou'N Official

Proclamation ofWar-Presidont thinks the War

Hill

be a I..on One.

NEW YORK, August G.—A special from Washington, says the President is not fully determined what he will do about issuing a proclamation of neutrality between France and Prussia. In conversation with persons at Dong Branch, he said he thought he would not issue one at present, as there did not seem to be any occasion or necessity for it.

But in the course of conversation today indicated, its is not settled just what shall be done in the premises. j» i\

We have received the Emperor's official proclamation of war. The most notable sentence in it is, that the Emperor avows his purpose not only to protect the honor and dignity of France, but to maintain the political equilibrum of Europe.

The Prsident says that lie thinks the war will likely enough be a long one, and not without material advantages to our country to set off against its disadvantages the French Minister has issued a proclamation of neutrality of official notification of

Avar

between France and

Prussia, having been read and the fact made known to the President. He has determined to issue a proclamation of neutrality anil says that he will promulgate this order of neutrality when he returns from St. Louis.

The Proclamation will be particularly plain in relation to the neutrality laws, so that they may be fully understood by the people. The Picsident replied to the question in relation to feeling that he would probably leave for Europe the latter part o/ August. He had accepted the appointment and his instructions, although not yet prepared in form, were understood by Mr. Freelinghuysen, and would doubtless lie carried out as far as possible.

Pie said I feel confident t'uat Mr. Freelinghuysen is in perfect accord with the Government, and will do his best in the discharge of his important duties in connection with the Alabama claims.

In reference to the war, the President agrees with Ackerman that it will be a long and exhausting one, with the probability that both parties will come out defeated. yJerome Bradley, who was recently convicted of being implicated in the SS5,000 bond larceny, has been released on $5,000 bail in view of his approaching new trial.

Pat. McDonald, the notorious emigrant ticket swindler, who was recently sentenced to five years in the State Prison for swindling a French Canadian out ofi S4,G00, has been reloased on bail and a new trial ordered.

Two melt were arrested last evening and examined in reference to the Nathans murder, last night.' It is believed the police have a clue. Tlie Nathans family offer an additional reward for the identification and recovery 6f certain jewelry $10,000 reward for arrest aiid conviction of murderer $5,000 for identification of steel dog left behind by the murderer, and a further reward of $500 for the voluntary appearance of the man who ascended the steps on the morning of the murder and picked up a piece of white paper. The aggregate amount of the rewards reaches $40,000.
