Gov. Geary Demands that Douglass be appointed Delano's Successor.

[Special Dispatches to the Torre Haute Gazette] LONDON, October 2o.—The Berlin correspondent of the London Times, announces that the armistice waits because Prussia, demands the consent of France to a cesstion of territory.

VIENNA, October 25.—The Wiesiier Abend Zeitung publishes a telegram from its correspondent at Tours, announcing that the French Provisional Government had accepted in principle tiie proposals for a armistice advanced by England through her Embassador at Tours, Lord Lyons. The concurrent representations of Austria also contributed to their acceptance.

It is announced that M. Adolphe Thiers lias been appointed a diplomat in the discussion of these proposals and with the control of the government at. Paris to open negotiations with Count Bismarck.

LONDON, October 2o.—The new French loan which has just been introduced upon the English market, is nominally quoted at .' per cent, premium.

STRASBOURG, via CAULSUUHE, Oct. 25.—A dispatch lias been received here announcing the surrender of the French garrison at Schisladt.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.—Although only one regiment of troops, the Eighth U. S. Infantry, has up to this time been ordered to New York city, the President has ordered matters arranged so that all the troops can be brought from Philadelphia, Newport, Boston, and Carlisle Barracks into New York in a very few hours if there should be any necessity for such a proceeding.

The origin, of the Associated Press canard about the seizure of the St. Clair Flats Canal, was iully explained at a Cabinet meeting to-day, by General Belknap, the Secretary of War, who received information from Detroit as follows: "The Canadian Boundary Committee, on board the gunboat Alfred, came down into that locality to look into some question of boundary, and could not get through the ship channel, and consequently the vessel went through the canal. This is all the foundation for the story."

Nothing was said at the Cabinet meeting to-day in regard to the appointment of Delano's successor.

Gov. Geary has written a strong letter to the President, demanding in the name of the Pennsylvania Republicans, that Douglass be given the position.

The naval court martial, now in session in this city, may have to continue its labor all winter, as investigation tends to implicate many hitherto unnamed. During the examination of witnesses to-day in the case of tho paymaster at Washington, the testimony adduced was very damaging to the paymaster who is stationed at Norfolk navy yard, as inspector of provisions and clothing while at Washington, was on recovery shipped from that station, and his name may be added to those to be tried.

The President expresses emphatically a determination to enforce the laws of Congress and put a stop to frauds in elections. He has ordered all available troops in forts east of the Mississippi River to rendezvous at New York prior to the election in that State. All available marines will also be sent there.

An Arjhbishop is talked of, and the name of Bishop Potter is prominently mentioned in this connection. The object of the convention is to bind in closer tics of amity the Diocese formed in this State.

Another decidedly sensational fraud was committed on Wall street this morning, modeled on the Vauderbilt dispatch, and beititr similar in some repectsto certain bogus dispatches which enlivened the street during our late war. At 10 o'clock, certain members of the Gold Exchange appeared in the gold room, bearinglittle fly-sheet extras, some of which purported to have come from the Evening Post and some from the .Commercial Advertiser. In all essential respects, the dispatches wei\i the same. That purporting to come from the office of the Commercial was as follows: Special Dispatch to the Commercial Advertiser.

LIOXDON, October 2-5, 1870.

The negotiations which have been carried on by the mediation of Gen. Burnside, between Jules Favre and Count Bismarck, have been brought to a successful conclusion to-day, France conceding the Prussian demands with some modifications.

The extras were about four inches long and two inches wide in their get up and had but little resemblance to the print of either of the papers whose names they used. Their head lines were tremenduous, setting forth that Paris had capitulated that the war was at an end, and half a dozen other things equally as goodAny one but a broker would have suspected their genuineness, but singularly enough, their extraordinary statements were eagerly gobbled up by the credulous and no one at first expressed a particle of doubt as to their authenticity. The premium on gold dropped like a flash from 1.12 to 1.1H, and there was tremenduous excitement over the news. At o'clock this morning the ominous report was put in circulation that the news was bogus, and gold at once rallied to 1.11 J. It is suspected that the fraud was perpetrated by the same parties who originated Vanderbilt fraud some time ago.

SUSPENSION BRIDGE, N. Y. Oct. 25.— As two men, named Moss and Ducker were discussing the merits of race horses, a slate colored boy become excited and drew a revolver and shot Moss, wounding him seriously though not fatally. The affair occurred about 5 o'clock this evening.

NEW YORK, Oct. 25—The yacht race between the Sappho and Dauntless created quite an excitement here to-day, as these two boats are now acknowledged by all to be the best in the Avorld. Each has its own peculiar excellencies, but ever since the challenge has been accepted, the odds, have been slightly in favor of the Sappho, until last week, when it changed to the Dauntless. For the past few days around Wall street, betting has been quite lively. The Dauntless and a fishifig smack to act as stake-boat were taken in tow by the Seth Lowe, and towed down-to quarantine, wheio the Sappho was awaiting her. Some rather heated discussion arose, judging from the loud talking between the owners of the yachts. It seemed apparent that the owner of the Sappho wished to back out, and he proposed a postponement, but Bennett was impatient for a race at once. After a great deal of parleyinjg, it was finally agreed to decide the contest at once. The Sappho won the race.

In consequence of the bad working of

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK,

Oct. 26.—No intelligence

has yet been received of the arrival in European waters of the corvette Shenandoah, commanded by Clark II. Wells, which sailed from Boston on the 2d or 3rd of September. She is now over fifty days out, and is making an unusually long passage to the eastward for the season of the year.

It is quite probable she may have been the ship seen dismasted, by an English ship about the 12tli of September. She was fully supplied with coal and could go under steam from 14 to 20 days, with economy of fuel, without use of sails in that case she would probably steer far windward to an island to repair damages, in order to continue her voyage to Lisbon. The agents of the Anchor Line are confident that the telegram, to a gentleman at Coffin Station, Indiana, from his brother, supposed to have been a passenger on the Columbia, announcing his safe arrival at Glasgow, and which created such great interest, as indicating the safety of the passengers, only refers to the fact that Hodson did not take passage on the Cambria, though his name appears upon the passenger list. They arc positive he must have gone by by the Caledonia, as liis name has not been checked off the Cambria list as is the usual custom. The agents are therefore positive. No telegram has been received in Scottland to tell the fate of the passengers.

Colonel Whiteley, Chief of the secret detective force of the Treasury department, has received a telegram from one of his chief detectives in the city of New Orleans, to the effect that he has discovered and broken up in that city one of the largest aricl most notorious gangs of counterfeiters that have so long infested the Southern States. In the headquarters of the gang were found two sets of dies and swedges for gold coins, and a large press with all the appurtenances for printing counterfeit paper money.

Three of the gang were caught in the very act of using the dies. Fire of them made their escape by jumping from a back window and swimming across the Mississippi river to Algiers, but Harris, the chief of the gang, was secured after making a desperate resistance,

Large quantities of gold and silver, used for making shells for counterfeit coin were found by tho Chief Detective in searching through the building. But the most valuable capture, is that of the dies, which in material, workmanship and finish, are pronounced equal to the best ever made.

LOTDONVIIJIIE, Oct. 26.—A remarkable phenomenon occurred the day on which the earthquake was felt, about three miles east of here at a place called Stumps Mill, and on a small hillside that has heretofore been dry ground, a stream of water about one foot in diameter gushed out with great violence, and has been running with the same force ever since. The ground for a considerable extend arountf the water spout is settling. Long poles have been inserted but no bottom found. There seems to be an under ground lake. It is causing considerable excitement.

CHICAGO, Oct. 26.—Mr. Leckie, a leading distiller here, visited his establish ment a day or two ago, and he went up on the oatside of the building to the top of the hot water tub for the purpose of turning off the faucet. This tub supplies all the hot water used in the building, and is between 15 and 20 feet deep and about seven in diameter.

At the time it was filled with boiling water. Through some indadvertence on the part of Mr. Leckie, his foot slipped and he was precipitated into the steaming cauldron. He managed to seize the stays or chains of the tank aud cried for help, which soon arrived, and extricated him from his horrible situation. Medical aid was immediately summoned, but his injuries were too severe for recovery, and after a night of incalculable suffering, he expired on yesterday morning at 5 o'clock. 31ADISON.

A Force Feed Drill, Operated by Spui Gearing.

NO LOOSE COG WHEELS ABOUT IT!

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

The grain is distributed by means

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 straw* 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 drilts 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

ARMERS' FRIEND 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.
