Additional Local News.
PERSONAL.—M. B. Hudson has returned from the Hot Springs, Arkansas, where he has been two months for bis health. The hot water seems to have had a wonderful effect upon him, and he comes back fully restored to health.
Russell Bement has been in the city several days, and speaks warmly iu favor of Terre Haute as being a desirable place to live.
Miss Fanny Janauschek, the renowned German tragedienne, and her able support, Mr. Fred. G.Robinson and wife, are stopping at the Terre Haute House, and the rest of the troupe is stopping at the National.
Ax amusing scene was witnessed at Centenary Church Sunday School yesterday afternoon. The lecture room, of Centenary, is heated with two furnaces, one near the entrance and another on the opposite side of the house. Yesterday morning the furnace nearest the door got out of order and could not be heated. In the afternoon an awkward looking and evidently green individual came into the Sunday school and was suffering from cold fingers and toes, as was judged from the frantic efforts he made to warm them by the cold furnace for about fifteen minutes or until the persons in his immediate vicinity began to show unmistakable signs of mirthfulness, and the librarian kindly informed "greeny" that there was no fire in the furnace.
THE BARTINE COMBINATION gave its last entertainment, to be given at the Theatre Comique, Saturday night to a good house. The performance, as has been the case during the entire management of Mr. Bartine, was chaste and first-class in every particular, and we are pained to announce that it was the last appearance of the troupe in this city. The management, during the entire week, had a much larger and better troupe than the patronage of the city could support, and being too much of a gentleman to change the character of the performance, for the sake of moneyed success, determined upon the only altenative, which was the abandonnaent of the enterprise of managing the institution. We regret exceedingly that he was not supported as the true merits of his combination deserved, in order that he might remain with us but as he was not, and has determined upon abandoning the enterprise and resuming bis series of traveling entertainments, we take much pleasure in commending him to the press and communities wherever he may appear, as a gentleman, and his troupe as first-class and chaste in every respect.
MAYOR'S COURT.—Marshal Whiteman, this morning, arrested a German named Chas. Fredenberg, who keeps a saloon of some kind down on lower south Third street, charged with violating the ordinance of the city, by selling liquor on Sunday. It appears that the way he got into this difficulty and consequently into Mayor Cookerly's court, he, on yesterday sold some whisky to a couple of individuals, who names we did not learn, and according to their evidence, they gave him a ten dollar bill, and he would not return them their change whereupon they made copjplaint, which resulted in Charley being interviewed bytheMayor, who fined him $8.80 on a charge of following his usual avocation on Sunday,

The Tennessee panther is written up by Mr. Love, who has seen it. He says he's "not zactly suro it's a panther, fur it is the «hangeablest colored varmint I ever sot my eyes on. When it switches its tail frum side to side, and flashes fire outen its big yaller eyes, it 'peered to seem as it wus streekedly spotted like by turns but when it got sorter more gentler then it 'peered to seem of a duve-colored brown. I'm now or' the b'leef its the varmint that got away from the show-folks at Murfreesboro not very long back.

A BOSTON paper expresses the conviction that a "man who will not do anything for himself, nor let any one else do anything, by the way of public improvement, ought to keep tavern after everybody else is dead." The enterprising kind, we imagine, would be glad of an excuse to come back and tend bar for the JucKy old fellow. Adam bad to stand it •,£ without a tavern.

The City Attorney and His Honor, then informed Fred, that he would be obliged to pay the men back the ten dollars which he kept the day before, to which he demurred at first, but finally concluded he would, remarking meanwhile, that "ven I vasli mad, I vash so mad as blitzen" and similar ejaculations. Upou opening his wallet the prosecuting witnesses singled out a vignette of the immortal Lincoln and signified their willingness to swear that it was one that one of them received for working in a saw mill, while the Dutchman said it was one some man, whose nameslips our memory gave him, and that he could prove it. However he concluded he would give it to the saw mill man, and did so without further comment.
Benjamin French got on a blind drunk, which got him down on the sidewalk last night, and was picked up by Officer Vaudever, who gave him a "bunk" in the new Station House over night, from whence he was taken this morning before Mayor Gookerly, who fined and costed him in the sum of $8.50, which he secured and went his way a sober mau.
Frank Case, who has the reputatian of being a pretty hard case, got drunk and disorderly Saturday night, and was "taken in out of the wet'' by Officer McCabe. This morning Case had a case in the Mayor's Court, when he was fined and costed in the sum of $8.50, which he paid and meandered. .. 1
In the case of the free fight reported in Saturday's GAZETTE under the head of "Carrying the War into Africa," the Africans were discharged and Luther Hudson and the young man from the country, who was assaulted, were both fined. The couutrynian was discharged, however, on account of his wounds, by promising to pay when recovered, and Hudson was sent to jail on the charge of carrying concealed weapons and assault and bat tery iu default ©f payment of fine.
THEY have set up a statue of that great and good man, Gov. Andrew, in Boston. It was executed in Floreuce by Mr. Thomas Ball, and is well spoken of as a work of art. In one respect it is at least a sensible performance. The late Governor is not represented—twenty-five years ago he would have been—as a Roman or an Athenian. He is presented "in a cloak which hangs open, a frockcoat, loose pantaloons, and with the vest buttoned rather low." The only bit of moldy conventionalism is the parchment roll carried in the left hand. How much better all this is than a Roman toga, which no Yankee ever wore, or .could be hired to wear.

The Italian Government has received information of the conspiracy.
LONDON, Feb. 13.—The following translation of a proclamation addressed by the Emperor Napoleon to the Electors of France:
WILIFELMSHOHE, Feb. 8.—Betrayed by fortune, I have kept, since my captivity, profound silence. As long as armies confronted each other I abstained from^ny steps or words capable of causing party dissensions but I cannolo«ger remain silent before my country's disasters without appearing insensible to its sufferings. When I was made a prisoner I could not treat for peace because my resolutions would appear to have been dictated by personal considerations. I left the Regent to decide whether it was for the interest of the nation to continue the struggle. Notwithstanding the unparalleled reverse France was unsubdued her strongholds unreduced, a few departments invaded, and Paris in a state of defense. The extent of my misfortunes might possibiy have been limited but while attention wasdirected to her enemies an insurrection arose in Paris the seat of her representatives was violated, the safety of tl\^ Empress threatened, and the Empire, which had been three times acclaimed by the people overthrown and abandoned. Stilling my presentiments, I exclaimed, "What matters my dynasty if the country is saved." Instead of protesting against the violation of my right I hoped for the success of the defense and admired thfc patriotic devotion of the children of France. Now when the struggle is suspended, and all reasonable chance for victory has disappeared, it is time to call to account the usurpers for the bloodshed and ruin, and squandered resources. It is impossible to abandon the destinies of France to unauthorized government which was left on authority emanating from universal suffrage. Confidence and solid peace are only recoverable where people are consulted respecting a govern mant most capable of repairing the disasters to the country. It is essential that France should be united in her wishes. For myself, bruised by injustice and bitter de ception, I do not know or claim my repeatedly confessed rights. There is no room for personal ambition tut till the people are regularly assembled, and express their will, it is my duty to say that all acts are illegitimate. There is only one government in which resides the national sovereignty able to heal the

The captain is sure the steamer was the Tennessee.
NEW YORK, Februry 11.—Commodore Alden, Chief of the Bureau of Navigation, who superintended the embarkation of the San Domingo Commissioners, emphatically contradicts the wicked rumors regarding the unseaworthiness of of the Tennessee. Although sensation mongers have created alarm in the minds of those who have friends and relatives on board, those best capable of judging see as yet no cause for apprehension. .*"» rv *v
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—No news lias 3'et been received respecting the Tennessee. The opinions heretofore expressed in official quarters in regard to her safety have in no respect been changed. The President having been interrogated today on the subject, said he did not expect to hear from the Tennessee until the 16th inst., as the packet from the capital of San Domingo would not arrive at a telegraph point unti! that time.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.—There is considerable interest felt here to see what disposition the Indiana House of Representatives will make of the Hughes resolutions declaring the ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment a nullity. It is considered here that if they pass the fact will damage Hendricks, as he hopes to succeed as a moderate and conservative candidate. The policy of the anti-Hen-dricks men is to go into the canvass of 1872 on a square issue for the repeal of the whole system of reconstruction measures.
