There are a few enthusiastic young Democrats in this city, who have Voorhees ou the brain. Wonder, what the "Tall Sycamore" has promised them? You can't hear them talk of "anything else except Voorhees. We wonder how they can stand it. Codfish balls, are said to be good for the first fifteen or twenty meals, but as a regular diet they are not just the thing.
THE "Red Stockings" passed through the city last evening on the Vandalia Railroad, en route to St. Louis, where they play a match game of base ball today. George Wright was not with them He is at home getting his leg cured for a match game with the White Stockings at Chicago. More good muscle was in the sleeping car last night, than ever occupied it before, we venture.

We repeat, let there be a rousing meeting to-morrow night.
PLANET SATURN.—The Planet Saturn is now a brilliant object in the evening sky, passing below the western horizon a little before midnight.

It has special interest now for observers, from the fact that such is the position of the rings, with regard to ihe earth, that they appear open to their widest extent in a manner that will not

The attention of our committees having been called to the act of the last Legislature, approved April 26, 1SG9, and the question submitted to us whether it requires separate tickets and two ballot boxes in each voting precinct, for the different candidates to be voted for, we have to say that the question has been referred toeminentattorneys, and the decision arrived at that one ticket, comprising the names of candidates for State, Congressional, Judicial, County, and Township officers, and one ballot box in each voting precinct are alone necessary.

A MAMMOTH ENTERPRISE.—In a short paragraph yesterday, we alluded to the fact that a company of manufacturers of agricultural implements at Piqua, Ohio, were desirous of changing their location from that to this place. This mammoth enterprise will involve a capital of a quarter of a million of dollars, and will, if entered into, add greatly to the trade of the city. The firm ask a loan of $50,000, for a period of five years, without interest, and after that they propose to pay the money thus loaned back, at the rate of $10,000 per year. It is to be hoped that an arrangement n*ay be made, by which these works may be secured to this place. What is wanted in Terre Haute, is

DON CARLOS' trip to Russia, in the hope of being restored to the Spanish throne through the medium of the Czar, is one of the best jokes of the season. If anyone doubted of the insanity of the old Bourbons, this last freak of Don Carlos affords conclusive evidence of their being stark mad. But then it was kind on the part of Don Carlos to afford to Prince Gortschakoff some pleasant entertaiii-v-ment in these times of cares and anxiety and we can fancy how the venerable

manufactories, and we do
think there is no city in the West more favorably located for many kinds of manufactories we could name, than this. Iron works we have, and this is the center of a large, fertile region, which must be supplied with agricultural implements, and having excellent facilities for shipping in every direction, such an enterprise could not prove a failure if half managed. It is for the people interested in the growth and prosperity of the city, to see to it that all who wish to engage in such enterprises are properly encour aged,
About Idle Daughters.
It is a tiiost painful spectacle in families where the mother is the drudge, to see the daughters elegantly dressed, reclining at their ease with their drawing, their music, their fancy work and their reading, beguiling themselves of the lapse of hours, days and weeks and years and never dreaming of their responsibilities but as a necessary consequence of neglect of duty, growing weary of every newly invented stimulant to rouse their energies, and blaming their fate when they dare not blame their God for having placed them where they are. These individuals will often tell yon, itli au air of affected compassion—for who can believe it to be rerl?—that poor mother is working herself to death. Yet no sooner do you'propose they should assist her, than they declare she is quite in her element—in short, that she never would be happy if she had only half as much to do.

IT HAS been ordered by the Democratic Council at Evansville, that the census be retaken in that city. What folly. The census has been taken by officers appointed by the general government, or in the employ of the general government, and the returns made. It is the only report that will be recognized. We are glad that Terre Haute is not afflicted with such a Council as EvansviJle is. When it was suggested in tha Council in this city, that the census had not been taken correctly, Col. Thomas Dowling very properly remarked that it made no particular difference, it had been ascertained tnat there was "great mortality" in all the cities, and the subject was dropped then. It will be a good thing in Evansville for a few idle Democrats, however.

This Morning's News
The German Parliament Expectec to fee Convoked.
Orleans Evacuated by the French
Direction
Account of the Late Peace Nego tiations Between Bismarck ana Favre.
Interesting Particulars of the In terview.
[Special Dispatches to the Terre Haute Gazette.[
BERLIN, September 27.—It is confidently expected that the members of the incoming German Parliament will be immediately notified, and the Assembly convoked for action upon matters connected with the preservation of German unity, and her relations with the other powers of Europe.
TOURS, Sept. 27—Evening.—The garrison which occupied Orleans, quietly evacuated that city yesterday, and are retreating in this direction. The entire number will probably reach here in safety, as their march is not harassed by the Prussians.
LONDON, September 27.—Information just received from Paris, by the way of Tours, gives official account of the late interview between Jules Favre and Count Bismarck. The interview opened by Favre, who introduced himself, and stated in a brief manner the object of his coming at that time, under the circumstances. The Imperial Government was referred to by Favre, who stated that he came as a representative of the Republic of France, which had been proclaimed and acknowledged by other governments on friendly terms, with France as the de facto government of that nation.
Bismarck listened carefully and with earnest attention to this. In his introductory reply he said "it seems to me unwise and unauthorized to entertain any proposition coming from the so-called Provisional Government constitued at Paris in consequence of the irregular character and form of that government. This rendered a doubt, when that government places itself under the advice and mediation of a single minister, who comes to the enemy's camp in the character of an intermediator. Favre, notwithstanding this unfavorable opening of negotiations, proceeded in his endeavors to secure an armistice until the Constitutional Assembly could be called and a new government and ministry chosen, whose power in the settlement of the present war could not be questioned.
Bismark strenuously maintained that France had for years held a fixed determination of attacking Germany and this feeling had not
entirely
mission
disappeared, and
that to insure her own security for the future, Germany was compelled to demand guarantees from France for her peaceful relation to Germany for all time to come. Germany had aright to ask it. This affected the Departments of the upper and lower Rhine, together with the position of Metz, Chatua, DeSalinsand Socons. This position th'e Count stated Germany could not relinquish.
M. Favre indignantly responded to these humiliating conditions as follows: "We will never accept these terms. France would sooner perish from the earth as a nation than submit."
It is evident that Prussia desires the destruction of France, or, at least, her reduction to a second class power, although Bismarck protested that such was not the wish or desire of the German people.
During this interview, M. Favre renewed the proposition for an armistice ol sufficient length of"time to allow the election of a ruling assembly. Bismarck promptly replied that no armistice could be granted at any price. Here the interview abruptly terminated.
Subsequently, M. Favre obtained a second interview with Bismarck. In this meeting, Bismarck offered an armistice of 15 days for the capitulation of the cities of Strasbourg, Toul and the fortress of Philsburg, and to have possession of all the works and fortresses commanding the capitol, including the strong fortof Mont de Valeran, westerly of Paris. Favre quickly replied, then attack Paris at once.
Minister Favre, in conclusion, said: My mission has been a failure. Prussia,
has been a failure. Prussia,
by exacting a dishonorable surrender, would place us far beneath where a generation of war, famine and pestilence could sink us. The die is cast, and nothing remains for France but to resist, and drive back the Prussian hordes, or to be blotted out as a nation, from the face of the earth."
WASHINGTON, September 27.—The following is the Treasury balance at the close of business to-day: Coin, $96,473,036 Currency, $30,056,972 15, of which $14,712,500 are coin certificates.
The Republican Congressional Committee still continue to distribute documents by thousands. The last issues are the Attorney General's Arkansas speech, and Senator Morton's Terre Haute speech, which is translated iuto German, and a pamphlet entitled Land and Labor, which had been gotten up by the Committee. The understanding is that Governor Morton's departure for England before the elections in Indiana will seriously endanger the success of the Republican party, and an effort will be made to have him remain in the State throughout the canvass.
The delay in the census returns is generally believed to arise from the peculiarly ill-chosen time for taking it. A large portion of our population are on the move during the summer and fall months, and the difficulties of taking correct census are thereby greatly enhanced. The census bureau now thinks it would have been better to have carried out, as
far as practicable, the English plan of taking the census de facto, in one day, instead of strictly adhering to our de jure plan.
The Revenue Bureau to-day agreed to allow distillers to purchase ties metre from any one who may have them for sale when the sizes suit the capacity of the distillery. This is to enable distillers when they quit the business to dispose of their metres, which are very costly. The same bureau decides that hereafter whenever a stamp is put on tobacco, and the law and instructions of the department are not strictly complied with there will be presumptions of a wrong intention, and the tobacco will be seized. This is necessiated by the action of persons who, in many cases, put stamps in the heads of caddies of tobacco, and plead ignorance of the regulations of the tobacco seized.
A North Carolina collector lias written to the Revenue Department to know if he was bound to accept the bonds of a man about to start a tobacco manufactory, when he knew the man bore a bad reputation. It was ruled that if the bonds were good, they must be accepted.
Supervisor Dutton is in town working up some revenue cases. Mr. Bigelow, the head of the loan branch of the Treasury Department, leaves for New York to-night to aid in the prosecution of parties arrested recently with $4,000.
NEW YORK, September 27.—Annual trade sale of books closed sine die this evening, approximated half a million books and netted between $200,000 or $250,000. Two gangs of rapid writers are engaged night and day making out bills for the purchasers and making purchases. The vast cellars under Clinton Hall are perfect curiosity. This morning at the heavy stationery sale one gentleman remarked that if the sales had been $500,000 instead of $5,000 he would have bought the whole invoice.
Late this afternoon another meeting was held by the common council committee to make the necersary arrangements for attending the furneral of Admiral Farragut. The Mayor read the following:
WASHINGTON, September 27.—TO Hon. A. Oakey Hall, Mayor Gen. McDowell has been notified that the engineer troops fmrn Willard's Point would participate in the ceremonies, also a company of troops from Governor's Island and band. [Signed] WM. W. BELKNAP,

The remains will land at the foot of Canal street on next Friday morning. .

The search was made under the direction of the Chief of Police, and the detectives are confident of capturing the guilty parties.
CINCINNATI, Sept. 27.—Suit wa3 commenced in the United States District Court to-day, against A. G. Wright, C. Haynes, and William Westall, to recover a bond of $52,000, given by A. G. Wright as principal, and the other defendants as securities. The case is set for the October term.

PARIS, Sept. 28.—Marshal Bazaine refuses to enter into any negotiations for a capitulation at present, and manifests a slightly insubordinate disposition towards the new Government since its negotiations through Julus Favre for the restoration of peace.

ST. PAUL, September 28.—A Pembina letter of the 15th says: Matters are beginning to assume a serious aspect again in the Red River country. The Canadians are carrying on with a high hand. On the 13th inst., one Isadora Grant, an influential member of the Provisional Government, was recognized by some of the Canadians and pointed out as an obnoxious party.
He was immediately set upon, and after defending himself as best he could against the mob, he broke for the river jumped in, and was seen to sink.
This is raising a furore among the Red River settlers, which is not quieted by the boast of the Canadians that there are nine more they intend to serve the same way.
