"PKT NAMES."—The locals of the Indianapolis Journal and Sentinel indulge in the pleasant and -innocent little pastime of calling each other "pet names," icli as the following: The local of the Journal is always spoken of by the local of the Sentinel as the "Tripe fiend," and is spoken of by the "Tripe fiend" of the Journal as "The mangier," while the junior of the Journal is called by theSi?rttinel the "boy reporter." He KNJWS his business if lie is a boy.
Slafe.
A TERRE HAUTE mother thought she spoiled a courting couple by removing the livrht. Of course she did it.—Evansville Courier.
That reminds us of a case that was rerted to us a few days since of a little ine'dent that occurred in Evansville: A young gentleman of that city called on a young lady, and after spending an hour or so in "sweet con verse" and "cl.^se communion," (he iovingswain proposed that they extinguish the light, as it would he much more pleasant sitting by the light of the stove (which was a close one). The young lady said she would not sit, in a room with any gentleman unless there was a light in it. The matter was finally compromised by the prudent damsel taking the lamp and putting it down inside the flour barrel and placing the "wash-board" over the top of the barrel.
PERSONA*..—Mr. D. N. Foster, of Foster [•ros., of Terre Haute, was in the city yesterday. He expects to have the n»jw store open by the 25th of this mouth.—
Errimville Courier. Mr. Foster, with that enterprise that
menu to open out one of the largest stocks and greatest variety of goods that were ever opened out in that city, and proposes to sell at such popular prices that in a short time his memmoth establishment will be the great center of trade in hi* line, in the beautiful and wideawake city of Evansville. The secret of his unqualified .success is, that he knows how to avail himself of that greatest of all powers—the press. While he continues his wholesale and judicious system of advertising:, his success, which is now great, will be greater and greater.
Ii is reported, on apparently reliable authority, that Supt. A. A. Taluiage, of the Indianapolis tt St. Louis Railroad, has tendered Lis resignation, the same to take effect May 1st. Mr. T. is one of the ablest is well as most popular railroad officials in the country, and his many friends here regret this step, as it will take him permanently from the city. He will accept a iniilar position upon the Southern Pacific road.—Indianapolis Sen'inel. .Such a report is currently circulated and generally credited. Indeed the Indianapolis & St. Louis road will lose one of its most able and efficient officer* but what this company lose will be the gain of the Southern Pacific, and will no doubt also be the gain A. A. Taluiage, or he would not resign the responsible and enviable position which he now fills with so much credit to himself and satisfaction to the company. Wherever he may be, we wish him unlimited success and unbounded prosperity.
Franco-Prussian War.
A CONFIDENCE GAME.—An old German, who has been working in a mill out in the vicinity of the city for some time, or until he had saved up quite a sum of money, came to town Saturday morning and concluded he would "get on a bender." The first investment he made was in lager and limburger he next invested in a new suit of clothes, which he mislaid somewhere and could not find for a long time. A couple of chaps seeing that he had plenty of the "needful" thought they would "come it over him" by working upon the sympathetic heart they supposed him to possess. One of them represented himself as a policeman and arrested the other, who, in accents most piteous, asked the flush old Ger" man to give him So, which he did without hesitation. They then, as lie expressed it, "just made fun tnit" him, and left the poor old fellow in a bewildered state but still in a good humor. He allowed them to keep the money, consoling hiimelf that he had plenty left for him. He next proceeded to look up his new suit which he finally found. He then proceeded to the office of the Mayor and related his adventure in a very amusing manner. His description of the confidence game was the most laughable we ever heard.
A FAST TRAIN.—George Francis Train came to the Terre Haute House last night about eleven o'clock, but left this morning at half past-five for Vincennes, where he has gone to greet his Fenian friends whose acknowledged champion he is.
He has recently went through quite an ordeal at Chicago. It seems that some two yea"s siuce, he lectured in Chicago for some political party who were to pay all expenses but there being a misunderstanding about it, the bill was not paid until he came to give Chicago a touch of his experiences in the "wicked ways of the world," when the bill posters went for him for the bill thatshould have been paid by other parties. He was capiassed and wouldn't pay. the bill, though it was small. He refused to pay it, on principle. In jail, he improved his time in investigating the inside or "ring" workings of the "City of Churches'" jail, and startled the giiy old city of legs with astonishing revelations of the horrible sights and smells, to be seen and scented therein. He published what he observed in the Evening Mail, and the matter is now being investigated by the Grand Jury.
G. F. T. wants to come here some evening soon and and greet his Fenian friends and tell them of his adventures in their behalf and give the people generally some idea of what he has been through. Arrangements are being effected by which he will probably be here by Saturday.evening. AVe will know by tomorrow.

Subsequently a large number of people of Zurich, who sympatized with the Germans, attacked the prison in which sixteen officers of the French Mobile Guard, arrested on the previous day, were imprisoned.

The riot has been thoroughly quelled, and the city is perfectly quiet.
ZURICH, March 12—Evening.—Only one person was killed during the disturbances.
The Federal Council has sent four battalions of infantry and two batteries of artillery to Zurich to assist in keeping peace. Further disturbances are apprehended.
HAVANA, Marcli 12.—The Diaro yesterday, in an editorial, advocates placing a price upon the head of Maximo Gomez, the insurgent General, assigning as a reason, that Gomez is a foreigner and an incendiary.

The Tennessee will sail in four days for ^ew York, by way of Key West. The performances of the Tennessee have delighted everybody. The fears of her condition are not shared by those on board, and her officers regard her as the strong est ship in the navy. Each Commissioner is preparing a draft of his report, and as yet the separate drafts have not been compared upon most points.
The report of the Commissioners will show a condition of affairs favorable to annexation.
Before the Commission left Ilayti, Lueron, who is one of Cabral's Generals, made a hostile demonstration against Monte Christo, but the crew of the United States man-of-war Congress checked the demonstration. President icz accompanied the Commissioners on the Tennessee to Asuca, where he was to take personal command of the force operating in that quarter against Cabral.
Cabral sent messengers to the Commissioners while they were in Hayti, but he did not visit them, nor has he beeu seen by any one attached to the Commission. The last mails from the United States missed the Commission. Letters for the expedition should be forwarded immediately to Key West, in time to meet the Tennessee on her arrival.
WASHINGTON, March 13.—The Currency Commissioners met Saturday morning, at the State Department and remained in session until two o'clock P. M., when a meeting of the Joint High Commission was held, which continued until four o'clock.

Mr. Beck means to take advantage of the present session by pushing his bill for the removal of all political disabilities, which on Tuesday was referred to the Judiciary Comniittee. It was brought back Saturday by a motion to reconsider. Beck and Farnsworth made speeches in advocacy of it. There is little prospect of its success at this session. General Butler will oppose it, because he wants that matter to be controlled in the Reconstruction Committee, which it is proposed to revive and continue for this Congress.
The Republican members of the Senate held a caucus meeting Saturday afternoon to consider the advisability of prolonging the session, in order to enact •iorne measure for the better protection of life and properly in the Southern States. There was along discussion upon the subject. A number of Senators took the ground that it would be impracticable to legislate upon the question without opening the door to general legislation, which was not desirable at this time. A resolution was finally adopted for the appointment of a committee of five to confer and act with a similar committee of Republican members of the House in framing a bill for the protection of Southern loyalists and to report to another meeting of the caucus to-day, when the subject will be further considered and a conclusion probably reached.
Resolutions were offered Saturday, and considerable argument was made in favor of taking early action upon the bill to repeal the duties on coal and salt, Cincinnati and Southern Railroad bill, and others, but the caucus definitely decided that no measure shall be enacted this session except sufih as relate to the condition of the Southern States.
Deputy United States Marshal Anderson Looper, of the Fifth South Carolina District, while attempting to seize an illicit distillery in possession of a man named Young, was attacked by the latter. Both drew their pistols and fired simultaneously, and both were killed at the first fire.

NEW YORK, March 13.—Aspecialfrom Washington to the New York Post says the Administration committed itself more than si* weeks ago to Sir Edward Thornton, British Minister, to bring about a change in the chairmanship of theForeigu RelationsCommittee, Thornton expressing doubts as to the Administration being able to get such treaty as the High Commission might agree upon ratified by the United States Senate so long as Senator Sumuer remained at the head of the Foreign Relations Committee and entertained such views as expressed in his speech against Mr. Johnson's treaty. While Sumner was confined to his bed, statements were published that he had prepared and would soon deliver a speech assailing the President in the most bitter terms, and arraigning him, not only for his San Domingo policy, but other Administration acts, all of which was with-
was made, however, to create the impression throughout the country thatSumner was determined in opposing the Administration in every way, and that it was essential to the success oftheforeign policy of the Administration to remove him from his position of influence and power in the Senate.
C. Kinney Smith, formerly of the Western Union Telegraph, has been appointed Superintendent of the New York City Fire Alarm.
Search for the Nathan murderer has become so sharp that an innocent man who resembled Forrester in many respects was arrested last night at the National Hotel. Only positive identification by the proprietor of the hotel saved him from eomrataio.. to the Toombs.
