MAXAOEI! JACOB BKRRY,

A MUCHLY SUED MAN GONE TO HIS REST.—Robert Barnes, an old gentleman of 72 winters, and an Evansvillian of of whom mention was made some time since in our city papers as being worth about a half a million of dollars, and as having about half that sum involved in various breach of promise and seduction suits, died at otio o'clock P. M., Saturday last, and was buried yesterday. One of the young women brought suit against this old Adonis for $50,000 which was decided but a "few days sinco in his favor, but a3 there was several other suits pending, lie no doubt thought he would go to rest and leave the case in the hands of his lawyers. It is said that he has no children.

AH RESTED AND CALIBOOSED.—Three men from Lost Creek township getting too much benzine into their worthless carcasses Saturday, got into a disgraceful row on Fourth street, and when Officers Vandever and Shewmaker undertook toarresttliem, oneof them gave "leg bail," but Ed. brought liim to time by firing a shot from his revolver at him, which slackened his .speed slightly, but when the ofllcer came up with him and undertook to make the arrest, he gave battle, and got a touch of the revolver upon the ear for his trouble. The officers then lodged them all in the Station House until yesterday, in default of paying a fine of SS each.. Yesterday two of them gave security and were discharged. The other still languishcth.

THE BARTINE COMBINATION made their first appearance at the Theatre Comique last Saturday night before the most crowded and enthusiastic house with which that building has ever been honored, and gave a performance which was really creditable to the already enviable reputation of the young manager and was repeatedly and rapturously applauded throughout the entire evening. Everything was conducted in the most decorous and dignified manner, which contrasted with the recent management of that same house when under the name of the "Academy of Music," really made those present feel as though they had been transported from the infernal regions to a first-class combination entertainment. We wish Charley unlimited success while he continues in ivis present course.

THE Chicago Mepubiican says in the Illinois Legislature nine-tenths of the Democrats are for Hendricks, andVhe other tenth is not for Pendleton.

MU. BRIQN'OLI, in attempting to say at tho 2s1 ilsson concert in Indianapolis, that Mademoiselle Nilsson was suffering from a cold, declared that "M'lle Nilsson was a leetle horse.1'' Of course the public will be astonished at this statement, although that part of it which witnessed the energy with which she kicked a piano stool out of her way on the stage in Chicago, would not have* been unduly surprised, had Brignoli announced that "M'lle NilsKOU was a 'leetle' mule."—Chicago Post.

We will bo careful that there are no piano stools in tho way of the spirited songstress on the stage of our Opera House for our people would undoubtedly be shocked at such a muscular" display.

citizens will not forget the Bloomfield railroad meeting on Wednesday. It is an important matter and this city is deeply interested in everythingconnected with it. In all probability steps will be taken to organize for commencing the work, and the right men should be selected. Terre Haute has already subscribed $100,000, and the representatives of the city who subscribed this money, should attend the meeting, and take interest in this first step toward the early completion of this important work.

C'KAWFOIID COUNTY JLSTICE.—The following is the result of a Crawford county jury's deliberations before which a case of assault and battery had been tried in a justice's court, the number of the jury, which it was six:

Juror No. 1 votud "NTo cose of action No. 2 voted "Salt and batory, Second Decree No. 3 deemed tlie prissuer "Gilty of saltNo. 4 decided there was "no action of oausNo. 5 voted it "assault and liatory," while No. 6 decided the prisoner "Gilty of an a sault only."

Tho unfortunate "salt and batterist" has been recommended to Executive clemency.

THE largo amount of money invested in. tickets to the Nilsson concert is given as one ot' the causes for the present financial I stringency in Torre Haute.--Indianapolis Journal.

We admit that the citizens of Terre Haute have nearly S3,000 invested in tickets for the Nilsson concert, but that investment does not worry any one, though we have no assuranee when the money will be redeemed by the troupe filling their engagement. Two of our banks have recently received an additional capital of $100,000 each, which makes finances the very reverse of stringent.

The reason the neighbors were not alarmed by the hammering of the burglars is thus explained: One watchman is a sort of a shoemaker, and has been accustomed to bringing in his bench and working at night. When the people heard the hammering they thought it was the hammering on the lap-stone. Had not Mr. Murphy disobeyed orders the robbery would not have been committed. He was notified not to admit any person after trie closing oftiie bank.

Augur was conveyed to his residence for treatment, but nothing could be of any benefit to him, and after great pain and anguish for three hours, he breathed his last.

CONGRESSIONAL Sl.lIM UtT

WASHINGTON, February 4. Senate.

The House joint resolution authorizing a division of live hundred thousand acres of lands, granted by the United States to Oregon for common school purposes in that State, passed.

Mr. Pomeroy introduced a joint resolution authorizing the President to station at the port of New York one or more national vessels, to convey breadstufi's and supplies contributed by the people of the United States, to France for the destitute and suffering people there.

Mr. Howard moved to strike out all reference to Prussia. Germany had seemed so far ahle to paddle her own canoe, that we had no reason to conclude that they desired any assistance.

Mr. Sehurz suggested that the idea was to make no invidious distinction. Mr. Howard regarded it rather an anomalous state of affairs for us to be sending supplies to a foreign country at war. During our war with the rebels no European nation sent us any supplies.

Mr. Pomeroy said they had sent us men to fight our battles. Mr. Coiikling said there was nothing to make us discriminate in this matter between France and Germany. A great many of our people would desire to send their contributions to Germany.

Mr. Howard did not desire to be misunderstood. His sympathies had from the first been with Prussia. He would withdraw the amendment.

Mr. Fowler said his sympathies were with the suffering people of both countries, but as to the Government of Germany lie failed to see where it had shown any sympathy for the United States iu our struggle.

Mr. Stewart, remarked that Germany had taken our bonds when other nations would not, and thus given us means to carry on the war.

Mr. Fowler. They deserve no credit for that. They were only smarter than other people, and they got an exorbitant rate of interest.

Mr. Sehurz said it was undeniable, and the evidence was on file in the State Department that Germany had sympathized with the' Union during the rebellion. If they had not symathized with us and believed we would be successful, they would not have bought our bonds.

Mr. Casserly thought the resolution of Mr. Pomeroy was a graceful one, and should have Deen passed at once- It was deplorable to bring in question a great and noble charity for discussson of the nature which had sprung up.

Mr. Sumner said it was a difficult matter for him or any American lo decide as (o which we owed most to, Frauce or Germany. But why consider this? Charity "knows no persons nor discriminations. The resolution then passed.

Mr. Wilson introuced a bill to promote commerce aud encourage ship building. Referred.

The Senate then went into executive session, and subsequently adjourned. J£ouse^ V'-

Mr. Pomeroy, from the Committee on Territories, reported a bill limiting sessions of Territorial Legislature to forty days, and fixing pay as follows. Members six dollars per day during the session and six dollars for every forty miles travel. The President of the Council and Speaker of the House eight dollars per day. One chief clerk eight dol'ars per day, and one assistant clerk, one enrolling clerk, one engrossing clerk, one ser-
