City and Neighborhood.

NEW YORK Circus on the IStii.

SEND a copy of the GAZETTE to a friend.

COUNCIL meeting on Tuesday night, regular session.

COOL nights, and more prospect for rain.

SERVICES in all the churches to-mor-row.

THE streets were crowded with people to-day. THERE wiU be no meeting at the wigwam to-night.

THE church directory will be found in the GAZE LTH to-day.

BASE BALL this afternoon. Lots of fun in anticipation.

REV. GEO, MORRTSON is in the city today and will remain, foe several days.

SwRET potatoes sell in this market at five dollars per bushel. That will do for high.

A I]or,T,Kii skaJng rink is lo.n .r bu'ifc at EvansviMe. Kxcha vc. Enterprise. But they are not building a new hotel.

THERE were but two casses before His Honor, the Mayor, this morning, both "dead beat" drunks, and impecunious "cuescs."

THE gas furnace at the blast furnace exploded yesterday evening, scattering the bricks in every direction, hut fortunately no one was hurt.

a (!E numbers of people, ladies, gentlemen and children, visited the blast furnace this morning and afternoon. It was the excitement of the day.

THE man who was arrested and tried before the Mayor yesterday on charge of passing counterfeit money, was held to bail for his appearance ao ihe next term of the Criminal Court.

will be well for all persons who are not in the habit of scrutinizing bank bills closely before taking them, to do so, as it is said that there is a great deal of counterfeit money afloat in the city.

THE Fifteenth Amendment Band serenaded the Mayor last night, and to-day it issaid that he is wavering in his political notions. Should not be surprised to hear of his making Republican speeches before long. IJe is turning.

SHERIFF Stewart sent Lafayette Meyers, who was convicted for the killing of Bryant to the penitentiary for two years to the prison at Jeffersonville to-day. If Meyers has luck, he will be just old enough to vote at the expiration of his time.

PARTIES in this city have recently received afresh installment of letters from persons in New York, who propose the sale of the "queer," or fac simile Treasury notes. We saw several gentlemen yesterday who had received letters of this kind.

THE Republicans of Lost Creek township met at the township house yesterday, aud made the following nominations for township officers:

For Trustee—Moody Chamberlain. For Justices of the* Peace—Isaac Myers and Matthew Gray.

Quite a number of people were present. It was, however, only a township meeting.

YESTERDAY one of the incorrigible little thieves about this city, stole a wood saw and sold it to a dealer in secondhand articles, on Fourth street. We have in the city lots of chaps ranging in ages from eight to sixteen years, who, if a vigorous application of the raw-hide is not made, will bring up in the penitentiary before long. The parents will find., when it is too late, that their indulgen.ee lias spoiled their children.

A DAY or two ago we mentioned the fact that the Riverside base ball club at Evansville, had challenged the Vigo base ball club of this city. In copying the paragraph the Courier of that city says: "Come by all means. The Riversides lire all gentlemen, and we promise you a good time and plenty of run. What if you are beaten that's nothiug."

But the Vigos hope they will not be beaten. The Riversides will have to wake up when the game comes off.

I O I O N N A E

A GREAT ESTTEBPBISE.

LIY FULL OPERATION.

The blast furnace of the Vigo Iron Company is now in full blast, and to-day-it was expected that the first iron would be made. The capital stock of this company is $125,000, and the event of putting the furnace into successful operation will be long remembered by the many people who visited the works to-day.

OFFICERS.

The following is a list of the ollicers A. L. Crawford, President. A. J. Crawford, Secretary. D. W. Minshall. Treasurer.

DIRECTORS.

A. L. Crawford, J. M. Crawford, A. J. Crawford, Chauncey Rose, D. W. MinshalJ, S. W. Phelps, Alex. McGregor.

STOCKHOLDERS. .:

Tuell, Chas.Cruft, Owen Tuilei, Firman Nippert, Alex. McGregor, Jas. C. McGregor, Demas De ning, Chauncey Rose, Preston Hussy, H. Hulman, Seath, Ilager & Gilman,

STACK.

The stack is 12 feet diameter, or in the "bosh" as it is called, and is 52 feet high. The material for making the iron is of course put in at the top. It is .subslantially built of fire brick, with large iron columns of one ton each in weight. It is expected that thirteen tons of iron will be cast at a single blast, and two blasts made each day, thus giving twenty-live tons of iron each twenty-four hours. It is not so much the purpose of the company to make or cast a vast deal of iron in a day, as it is to make a superior article, and to the accomplishment of that end, the best men, and most experienced hands have been employed.

CAST HOUSE.

The cast house is of brick, and is 42x100 feet, 24 feet high. From the turnace the molten metal is conveyed in a chute, to the sand which has been prepared to receive it. This sand is carefully prepared, so that the metal is quickly run from the furnace, whore it remain until cooled, after which it is taken out, and is ready for shipment.

STOCK-HOUSE.

The Stock-house is 00x140 feet, and is 20 feet high. The coal, iron, limestone rock, and all the material for making iron is kept there, an immense stock of which is on hand at the present time.

MIXTURE.

In the stock-house the mixture is made, which consists Of the following named articles viz: Iron Mountain ore, Missouri Ilemat.'te, Rolling Mill chide", and limestone. Having thus been mlAed, it is conveyed to the top of the furnace, by two enormous holsters, in

HID

all carts, after

which it is thrown into the furnace, which is heated to 9000°, or that is the estimate of the heat in the hot blast. This arrangement is perfect, and the work is done in quicklime.

ENGINE ROOM.

The engine room is 34 by 34 feet, and an immense upright high pressure engine is used. The steam cylender is 34 inches in diamater, having a 4 foot stroke. The blasting cylender, has also a 4 foot stroke, and is of similar dimensions otherwise. This engine is of 400 horse power, and is a beautiful piece of machinery, working most perfectly.

EOILECS.

The boilers are four in number, and 40 inches in diameter, and 60 feet long. The shed which contains the boilers is of wood, and only temporary.

STEAM KOISTKRS.

Above we referred to the steam hois!ers, of which there are two, capable of carrying immense loads of ore, to the height of 80 feet. These powerful, elevators are in almost constant use, and require, from three to five hands to attend them.

RAILROAD TRACKS.

Through the stock house there are two railroad tracks, which connect south with the Evansville & Crawfordsville Road, and by them the stock, coal, &c., is carried into the building.

BUILDINGS.

The buildings consist of a stock house, boiler room, scale house, elevator, smith shop, pump house, engine house, cast house, hot blast, and office—and all of these, except the office and hot blast, are covered with iron. The greater part of the casting and iron work was dcwic by parties in this city—Messrs. Seath, Hager & Gilman, and Wm. J. Ball & Co. The entire establishment is complete in all its parts, and we may confidently expect that it will prove one of the most successful enteprises that has ever beon engaged in in this city.

We would have been glad t( say more more about it, but have not che space to do so at present.

A GRAND SIGHT—If you would be delighted, go to the Iroij Furnace and take a look at the city, r.ml its surroundings from the top of tl ,e tower. Far away in the distance willt be seen the broad acres of rich land, covered with the growing corn. The magnificent farms, broad and wide, and one of the most beautiful cities in Uiewest. If you have a taste for the "beautiful, such a trip will pay you r'.chly.

FROM Mr. Filbeck. who attended the speaking at Ccntreville yesterday, we l.earn that the meeting was one of unusual interest. The crowd was large, and many Democrats attended. In this county, so far, Mr. Dunn's meetings have been well attended, and we hear his speeches spoken of in the most flattering terms by those who have attended the speakings.

THE Journal estimates the crowd that attended Voorhees' speaking in Parke county at 8,000. It might as well have been reported at 20,000, it would have been believed as soon.

THE lawyers were quite busy to-day getting ready for the Court of Common Pleas on Monday.

DAVENBORT BROTHERS.—The Davenport Brothers, who have been giving spiritual "seances" in all the cities in the West, almost, were badly caught in one of their tricks by a printer's "devil" in Bay City, Michigan, a few days ago. The juvenile printer went to the show on a free pass, having previously covered his hands with printers ink. The Davenports went into their dark box or cabinet and soon a "spirit" hand appeared through an aperature in the door. The printer's devil immediately seized the spirit hand and indulged in a friendly shake. The door of the cabinet was immediately opened, when one of the Davenports was discovered with his right hand all covered with the ink. The leading spiritualists of the country have long ago voted the Davenports humbugs, yet still these traveling fakirs continue in their efforts to impose upon the public.

BASE BALL—Thisafternoon, at 5 r. M., near the Alton round-house, the "Scratch Gravels," of the GAZETTE, will play the "Shin Whackers," of the Express, a match game of base ball. No doubt ii* will be a very interesting one, but look out for sore fingers, printers, on Monday.

THE UNION.—An adjourned meeting of the Printers' Union will meet at the Mail Office, to-morrow (Sunday) afternoon, at 4 o'clock, when a permanent organization will be effected.

TEN thousand wagon loads of watermelons were sold in Paris during this week, so says the Hectcoii and Bictdc. A tough story, but guess we will have to swallow it. _. 22^-

So plentiful are figs in California this season that it wiil not pay to gather and send them the market. If parties who understand drying and packing them would publish a reliable recipe, they would confer a benefit on those who have quantities on hand that are spoiling on the trees for the want of knowledge to properly preserve them.

XO 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 witti it force out xlrates 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 wiieel and put in another and the cog wheels are loose and liable to he lost. In the

OF NEW YORK,

Has ach'iev a si ecess without a parallel in the history of Life Insurance!

A Life Policy, covering 810,000, can be obtained from this Reliable and Progressive Company which will cost the insured (aged 35}.oniy SI80.SO,

Without ar.y Small Addition for Interest.

This policy will hold good for two yearswithout further payments, so that the cash payment of a 510,000 policy in this Company will be equal to only f97.90 per year.

A large number of policies have already taken by some of the best citizens in this eandi date 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-lifo 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 Oliio Street, between 3d and Itli,

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

W. II. 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.
