Additional Local News.
THE news we have from Clay county, is encouraging to the Republicans. A half a dozen gentlemen from that coun ty were in the city to-day, and stated that the Republicans were working with more earnestness than ever before. It is expected that Clay county will give a good account of itself at the election.
A FEW days ago the residence of Ransom Hawkins, Sullivan county, was destroyed by fire. Mr. Hawkins had left the day before for Kansas, and Mrs. H. was temporarily absent from home at a neighbor's, when the house was discovered in flames. Scarcely anything was saved from the burning building.
DON'T you like to have a man poke you under the fifth rib while talking to you, and have him say at every breath, "you know," "you see"? The poking is a delightful sensation, and if you have not made the acquaintance of some one addicted to the habit, by all means make the acquaintance of such a chap at once. You are losing half the pleasure of life.
ACADEMY OF MUSIC.—The attractions at the Academy of Music continue each night. The management will not fall behind. Last night new attractions were offered, and we are informed that those who attended were even more delighted than ever. We cannot take the space to particularize, where all act so well their part3. A big bill will be presented tonight.
RECEPTION.—The following named gentlemen composed the reception committee to receive Mr. Colfax at the depot to-day: Jacob H. Hager, Judge J. Crain, Maj. O. Wood, Doctor Thompson, P. E. Tuttle, Major B. Hudson, General Chas. Cruft, Col. J. P. Baird, N. Andrews, Col. R. N. Hudson, Maj. O. J. Smith, L. A. Burnett, N. Filbeck, W. R. McKeen.
DID NOT DENY.—At Sullivan yesterday, when Mr. Dunn charged that Voorhees had said the soldiers should have a collar of iron with the inscription "A. Lincoln's dogs" on it, Mr. Voorhees did not deny that he had made such a remark in that place. It will be remembered that he denied having made such a statement here, but in Sullivan, the men who heard him remember it, and the "Tall Sycamore" did not dare deny it. How is that for high?
COMMERCIAL COLLEGE.—One of the many institutions in this city, of which we can boast, is the Commercial College, under the management of Mr. Garvin. It gives us pleasure to note that it is well attended, and that the coui'se of instruction is thorough. Young gentlemen who attend a course at that institution are fully fitted for the counting-room, and can easily procure situations upon the recommendation of the principal. Young men, call and have a talk with Mr. Garvin.
As BEES.—We called at the great New York Store No. 73 Main street, near the court house square this morning on business, and found that all the clerks, partners and employes of that great dry goods stove, of Wittenberg, Ruscliaupt & Co., as "busy as bees" waiting on customers. Mr. Wittenburg informed us that they were receiving goods daily by Express of the latest patterns. It looks like business to step into that house. They have but one price for goods, and that is at the lowest notch.
Fro-Ti the Little Gleaner.
Formation of Dew.
When children go abroad in a clear morning, they often find all the grass covered with drops of water, and sometimes the water even drops from the trees, though the ground is dry and there has evidently been no rain in the night. They soon learn to call these drops by the name of dew but whence and how comes dew on the ground is a puzzle. Well, there is always more or less moisture in the air. If there is a cubic inch of water in a cubic yard of air, then the air is said to be thoroughly impregnated and filled with water. In such £k case the smallest amount of cold or absence of heat in any thing will cause little drops of dew to settle on the surface. By a cubic inch or yard is meant a square space measuring one inch or yard on ever side. If you taKe a block one inch long, one inch thick, and one inch high, it will be a cubic inch. Then if you take a box of the same form and size, and can fill it with water extracted from a vessel filled with air, and of the same form as the box, but measuring yards instead of inches, you would say that there had been a cubic inch of water in a cublic yard of air.
Almost any substance will have more or less dew 011 it when the air is in such a state, because few substances are warm enough to prevent it. Then just in proportion as there is less water in the air must a body or substance be cooled to produce dew. The blades of grass and leaves of trees, being thin, are quickly cooled when the sun goes down. They throw out the warmth that is in them, and soon become cooler than the air, and then the water that is in the air begins at once to settle on them, and in the course of a clear night will collect there enough, to form the "dew-drops." There is never any dew on the bare ground, because it never gets cooler than the air, so as to cause the moisture to settle on it nor of a cloudy night, because the clouds radiate heat to the ground, which prevents tbe leaves and grass from cooling, as a cloudy night is always warmer than a clear one would have been from the same cause. The dew does not fall on the leaves like rain, but collects from all directions, and it is not seen on the underside, because that side is so porous as to drink it up as a sponge does watei
steal one."

Brisk Skirmishing Kept up Around Paris.
Opposition to the Conscription in Germany.
[Special Dispatches to the Terre Haute Gazette.]
LONDON, Sept. 27—EVENING.—A dispatch from Berlin states the assertion made by M. Thiers, at the Austrian Court, that the Prussian Government by demanding the provinces of Alsace and Lorraine from France, was not sincere, as indicated by the authorities in that city.
A dispatch from Luxembourg, states that the Prussians were severely repulsed in their attack upon Rawn yesterday.
A dispatch also reports that fighting had been in progress at Mezieres on Saturday and Sunday, and upon Monday an armistice of two days was effected, for the purpose of removing and caring for the wounded.
BERLIN, Sept. 2S.—Advices received from before Paris, state that a grand review of all the Prussian troops in the vicinity of Versailles, occurred yesterday evening. The display and maneuvering of the different corps was magnificent. The Crown Prince of Prussia reviewed the entire number, 'standing beside the bronze statue of Louis IV., afterwards presenting war materials to the soldiers most distinguished for gallantry.
It is reported that the Duke of Wurtemburg was slightly wounded in the late action near one of the outworks of Paris.
The members of the Garde Mobile are leaving Paris for the surrounding country by hundreds daily. Two hundred have been executed for inciting a mutiny.
CARLSRUHE, BADEN, Sept. 28.—A deputation of the officers of the Baden troops, who have been besieging the city of Strasbourg, reached this city early this morning bearing official dispatches announcing the capitulation of Strasbourg at gve o'clock last evening. The announcement was made public this morning and created the wildest joy and excitement owing to the fact that the greater portion of the troops engaged in the besiegement are from this city and vicinity.
The official dispatch was read from the balcony of the Ducal Palace, to an immense crowd, who filled every street radiating from this magnificent building.
Processions were formed, guns fired and bells rung throughout the entire day, and tended to make the scene a day of rejoicing and honor to the brave Baden troops, who had won such a brilliant victory.
The capture of Strasbourg consists of over 200" cannon, 460 officers, and upward of 17,000 soldiers.
The Germans, under Gen. Wethers, took formal possession of the city this morning, the capitulation being signed at midnight, by Col. Leskinsceiver. The French officers will be paroled not to fight during the war, and the soldiers will be immediately transported as prisoners, to Germany.
LONDON, Sept. 27—Midnight.—Dispatches received at a late hour last night from the seat of the French Government near Tours, contains aproclamation addressed to the people of France and signed by the entire French Ministry, announcing the failures that have occurred to the arms of France, and the failure of negotiatipns for an armistice made by Minister Pavel's in a late interview with Bismark at the Prussian headquarters of the army at present besieging Paris.
The proclamation declares that France will never resign an inch of French territory, nor a single stone of French fortresses to Germany. France can and will resist any territorial sacrifices, and fight against these dishonorable conditions for peace until death until not a man remains or a gun left with which to .nieet her traditionai enemies.
The French Government have made public the resumption of peace and [quiet in Algiers. The proclamation of martial law had been rescinded and the cities besieged by French troops have been released from that position upon perfectly satisfactory terms and without any sanguinary engagements.a^^i^r
Information from Paris by the way of Tours, states that on Monday, the most intense manifestation of spiirit and determination to defend the city of Paris until the last extremity, were made by all classes. The people feel confident and undaunted in their ability to maintain a successful defense upon Monday evening. foil ui- II *€$M rlA large and enthusiastic meeting of the Spanish Republicans, residents of Paris, was held. The most unbounded patriotism and sympathy was expressed for the Republic and the French people, and liberal offers of money were made to the French Minister, and this was followed by the organization of a Spanish Republican corps to number 10,000, to assist in the defense of Paris.
Brisk skirmishing is being kept up continually along the line of forts, surrounding Paris, with general success, and favorable to the French. The line of defence remains in tact.
An announcement coming from Berlin and other German cities, is made, that serious opposition is encountered in making the new Landwehr levy, lately authorized by the Confederation. The Bavarian Parliament at its meeting absolutely refused to entertain the proposition, or furnish the amount of men called
for by
the conscription.
TERRE HAUTE, TNI)., THURSDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 29, 1870.
NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—The surrender of Strasbourg is confirmed from several sources. Uhlrich was compelled to surrender by the intense suffering of the citizens and garrison, which has rarely been equalled. The Prussians on enter ing the'eity were shocked at the condition of the tferoic defenders, and veteran soldiers were moved to tears.
It is reported that the force captured amounted to twenty thousand. Everybody in France is called upon to enter the army.
Berlin journals of a late date say the day of England's influence is over in Europe that she cannot in the future be anything but a second class power.
LAWRENCEBURG, IND., September 28.— Cheek and Bailey, the principal and accomplice, in the Harrison murder, committed last month, will have a hearing before Judge Lamb to-morrow, on application for a change of venue.
A case of gossip and scandal, brought by a niece of one of our bank Presidents, and a former distiller, for services as a domestic, has occupied the court for the past three days.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.—The train on the Erie railroad that left Rochester at 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, the Atlantic and G. W. Express train, and due here at 7:20 this morning, ran into Lent's circus train, also bound eastward, and standing on the track at Turner's Station. The circus train had heated journals, and remained near the station ten minutes. although it was known the express train, entitled to the track, was coming up beliiud them and was 20 minutes late. On hearing the approach of the express train the engineer of the circus train, knowing that a collision was inevitable, put
011
all possible steam and started off.
The crash came, knocking two passenger cars into splinters, not a whole seat being left in them. The cars were filled With circus performers and employees male and female, all of whom escaped with only slight bruises, except Whitbeck, director of the circus, who was instantly killed. Whitbeck had but a moment before stepped to the platform. Had he remained inside the car he would probably have shared the safety of the others.
All the other cars of the circus train, except those containing the horses, were demolished or thrown from the bank. The band wagon was entirely destroyed. The circus had an engagement to-day at Paterson and to-morrow at Elizabeth, when their traveling season would be brought to a close. Whitbeck was formerly a merchant in Albany and lived last at Hudson. His brother is in this city. The locomotive of the express train was driven into the cars of the circus train and set on fire. The damage to the express train was slight and no passengers were injured. The loss to L. B. Lent is not estimated, but as all of it is portable property which is destroyed, it cannot fall short of several thousand dollars.
LATER.—It is reported this afternoon that L. B. Lent, the proprietor, was killed, but this report needs confirmation.
The Common Council committee met again this afternoon. The committee have received telegrams from the Secretary of War and Secretary of the Navy, Robeson, to the effect that they will positively be present at the funeral obsequies. The committee on obsequies met this afternoon, Postmaster Gen. Webb presiding. The committee decided that representatives from other cities could attend the funeral. The decision was made in reply to a letter from the Mayor of Boston. Military arrangements are so far suitable as representatives of the State forces, several regiments having signified their intention of parading.
Col. Conkling, commanding the 84th regiment, has issued an order for the regiment to parade, fully armed and equipped. Major General Shaler has issued orders to the commander of the 1st division for its participation to the following regiments of his division:
Battery is assigned to the 1st brigade of infantry battery K, 22d infantry battery and battery G, 3d brigade of infantry. The 1st brigade of cavalry and the 5th brigade of the 2d division will parade with field and staff officers and a mounted howitzer battery will also participate. The 23d regiment has received orders to assemble in full dress uniform at the armory with draped uniform.
A motion was made and granted removing the five cases in the Common Pleas, involving $983,000, and eleven cases in the Supreme court involving $435,000, all growing out of the transactions of black Friday, from these courts to the Supreme court. From these decisions the plaintiff appeals before Judge Ingraham, claiming that that court had no jurisdiction to grant a decree.
The morning session of the Episcopal Diocese Convention was occupied in the appointment of committees.
Humanity on the Battlefield. ft is one of the compensations of the terrible European War, that it has made obvious to the world the practicability of the scheme presented a few years since in the convention held at ihecity of Geneva, for the relief of the wounded on battlefields. After a great battle, as is well known, no possible surgical and medical system of a public nature can suffice to temporarily relieve the wounded. Thousands die of ihirst and fever, thousands bleed to death, numbers perish because the needed surgical operation cannot be performed. Take such a battle as that of Borodino, for instance, where seventy thousand dead and wounded lay on the field, or one-third of all the combatants engaged—how utterly impracticable it must have been to relieve even half of the sufferers. But the recent oattles before Metz were even more destructive. On those bloody fields and heights there lay, a few days since, ninety thousand killed and wounded of the French and Germau armies—the latter thrown entirely on the German medical staff, as the French could not encumber themselves with their pwn wounded.

A Bear in a Sunday School. There was anew scholar at the Methodist Sabbath school last Sunday. Just as the bell had been struck and the superintendent was about to give out the opening hymn, a young bear, weighing perhaps forty pounds, trotted up the aisle, smelled the books the librarian had spread out before him, grunted his approbation of them, and then quietly seated himself upon his haunches in the pulpit. It is stating the case mildly to say that everybody was surprised, and that the children smiled audibly—very audibly. The officers of the school were willing to do all that was reasonable for the mental or moral edification of the young cub, but he so entirely absorbed the attention of the children that it was thought best to have hirn leaye. He was accordingly politely invited to retire, but he had evidently come to stay and that he would. It was his first attendance at Sunday school, and being thoroughly imbued with the spirit of young America, he resolved to see the thing through. A strap was finally got around his neck, and he was led away and fastened in a small adjoining room used as a store-room. Order was restored, and the superintendent was once more about to commence services, when a racket, as if all bedlam had broken loose, was heard in the store-room. Once more the officers came to the rescue, and, on opening the door, they found that the cub had Broken loose from his fastenings, and upset a five-gallon kerosene can, and was playing mad in a
most
magnificent style.
As the door was opened, bruin dashed out, shook the dust off his feet as a testimony against the treatment he had received, and left, evidently disgusted with the manner of conducting Sundayschools in Traverse city.—Michigan Pa

TERRE IIAUTE
COMMERCIAL COLLEGE, Cor. of Fifth and Main Sts., TERRE HAUTE, INDIANA, is now open both day and evening for the admission of all persons desiring instruction in Book Keeping, in any, or all its forms, Business, Arithmetic and Penmanship.
The course in book keeping in the above institution is as full and complete as given in any college in our Western country.
The only place penmanship is taught in the city is in the above college, at least the only place it receives that attention it justly merits. To those who make teaching a profession, a practical knowledge of this art is invaluable.
What is the use then we say of any person throwing away money and wasting time in trying to improve their penmanship when they have incompetent instruction, and as a result of such instruction they acquire habits which if, they are ever placed under proper instruction will have to be unlearned and will take more time, perseverance, and patience, for such to become good writers, than if they had never made an attempt to wrife.
An excellent opportunity is given in the evening session to those desiring Penmanship and Arithmetic who have not the privilege of attending in the day time. "Every young man in the country should receive a practical business education as the surest and most economical means to enable him to acquire wealth, and ot preserving it when acquired."
The most pressing want of the country to-day is honest men who will make themselves useful. They are needed in every branch of business. The question is, will yon prepare yourself for the work?
The business education is what the times demand. We therefore invite your special attention to our institution, and desire your patronage and co-operation.-
