The University of California has spent $00 for drums for the use of the University cadets.

The Southern Churchman says that in some American cities seven different kinds of Methodists can be found.

William Allen Butler, author of "Xothing to Wear," has a Bible class in the Presbyterian church at Yonkei's.

In Toronto all the restaurants, saloons, billiard rooms, &c., are closed on Saturday night at 7 o'clock, by municipal orders.

The Central Now York Sportsmen's Ciub, have contracted for 10,000 birds, to be used for trap shooting at the coming State Convention.

Some of the White Mountain hotels, in the spirit of competition, are said to contemplate reducing their charges to $1."0 a day this summer.

The wife of a Chicago gent was found by him slumbering in the arms of her affinity. The latter left in a hurry, and abandoned a set of teeth, which he dropped on the floor.

A member of the Illinois Legislature arose in his seat the other day, faced the gallery, tilled with ladies, and with a grotesque bow, emptied the contents of a whisky flask down his throat.

Mr. Savacool, of the Moravia Vidclte, is in jail in Ottumwa, on the charge

seducing of of his fexnale compositors. He ought to have gone about getting "small caps" and "furniture" in a legitimate way.

They have a peculiar brcach of promise case in the St. Louis courts. Louise Bulls has sued a father and son tor $10,000 [damages, her grounds of action against the son being that he refused to marry her according to promise, and against the father, thai he had objected to the proposed match.

New York has at* last discovered a means of touching the heart of Erie. The long-desired solution of the problem has been found in a non-bailable attachment against Gould for contempt of court. If this could only be made to apply simultaneously against Fisk, crowbars and search-warrants might possibly succeed iu finding the Erie accounts.

Cincinnati has an association which has been organized with reference to supplying extraordinarily cheap houses, to be paid for in infinitesimal instalments on the longest time known to human computation. It is ingenious, but it comes too late. Cincinnati can probably never again make its houses cheap enough to attract buyers or tenants.

The Eldora, (Iowa,) Ledger says that "Doc. Campbell, of Steamboat Rock, was found sweetly sleeping beside the wife of another man, absent.

It is annoying for a man to get lost about bedtime, and then at midnight to be found by the wrong woman."

POLITICAL affairs are just now getting a great deal of the earnest attention of the politicians, who are beginning to be buiaier with schemes and combinations than it is probable they have been since 1860. In 1S()4 it was too plain for serious doubt that if the Republicans were-to do anything they must renominate Lincoln and iu 1S8S it was as little doubtful that they must nominate Grant but that there are any such certainties now would not be said by any one, or rather, it is said by some few with an uneasy frequency which tells as well as the silence of the rest, how dubious and confused the political prospect at present is.—N.

STRIKE.—The journeymen sad

dlers of Evansville are on a strike. They and their employers had a conference on Saturday, but nothing definite or satisfactory resulted therefrom. There is a fair prospect for the inhabitants of the "pocket" riding bare-back horses.

EMMETT GUARD EXCURSION.—Tho Emmett Guards of Indianapolis, will excurse to this city on the 2-lth inst., and will picnic at Early's Grove, where a grand dance whl be given as one of the attractions. Their agent is in the city to-day. Come along, gentlemen.

AN UNENVIAJIIIE RECORD.—The metropolitan character of occurrences of Evansville increase, according to the Journal of that city "Two infanticide cases within a week, a man found dead occasionally and a double elopement without a man being of the eloping party." The latter sensation, however, is remarkably strange, as it is not the custom of Evansville females to elope with one of their own sex.

BEAR Know.—The boot-blacks and other gentlemen of elegant leisure, including the roosters, were highly entertained yesterday afternoon with the performance of a tame bear and a couple of wild and seedy looking Italians 011 the streets. When the hat was passed for a collection, however, the lookers-on would suddenly be siezed with a fear of the shining ivories and long sharp elaws of the bear. Of course, they wanted to give something to support the showmen, but were afraid of the monster bear!

PETTY TIIIEVIXC.—Itseems that there is a great deal of petty thieving going 011 in the city just at present, by young rascals *viio are too young to send to the Penitentiary, and who are but too well aware that they will not be received at the House of Refuge, and thus take advantage of the situation. Several of them have been detected recently, but in each case the afflicted parties refuse to appear against them, and thus escaping they are emboldened and repeat the offense. What is to done with them, is the question?

WANTED.—Tho young "sprig of tho law" who occupied so conspicuous a position at the bar yesterday, during tho Ryctf trial, to go and get his "stogas" hall so'led before lie puts them higher than his head in the presence of so many ladies. Messrs. Thompson, Yoorhees iiaird tt Cruft must have felt proud of him.

The above was handed us for our "wanted" column but as it is designed for the benefit of the "young sprig" above referred to, we give it a place in our local columns, thus hoping that iie will learn a lesson that w-ill benefit him, and" relieve ladies and gentlemen who may have occasion to be present at another trial, of au annoyance amounting to a nuisance.

AHOUT CLOSING.—Theamusement sea son—the most brilliant ever known iu the history of Terre Haute—is about closed. One more entertainment is all that is billed for the Opera House, except the great Train performance. On Saturday "evening, the celebrated Peak Family of Bell Ringers, will make their first appearance at the Opera Houge, for one evening only. We anticipate a large attendance, as it will no doubt close the series of most excellent and satisfactory entertainments with which we have been favored with this season, as stated above, with one exception. The troupe come to our city recommended in the highest terms by the press of tlig country, wherever they have appeared. We have no liesitency in recommending the troupe to our readers as a first-class one in every lespect, and predict for the company a large attendance and liberal patronage.

Tuesday will be sent

to the French Assembly and German Emperor for ratification. The Emperor telegraphed Bismarck yesterday, saying "While strictly adhering to the preliminary stipulations, I am willing to afford all possible facilities for a complete understanding. I am willing to freely discuss means for the early suppression of anarchy and the esstablishments of a legal Government in France.

May!).—The treaty was

yesterday by the High Commis

sion at the Department of State. The gentlemen, after this was done, exchanged congratulations on the result of their labors, expressing the belief that they had done the most they possibly could for the peace and honor of the two countries. Although the Commissioners have been cautious in talking to persons outside their own circle, the following points will be found to be correct.

First, There are to be two boards of arbitration, or commissions. one will be referred the Alabama and other similar claims which are recognized as national, and to be settled on the principle of responsibility for such depredations where the Government has not exercised the utmost diligence and possible precaution to prevent privateers being fitted out in its ports to prey upon the commerce of a power with whom it was at peace. The other board is to take cognizance of miscellaneous claims, British and American, confined principally to periods from

to the close of our late civil war. Anion"these are the St. Albans claims for damage to property in that town by Canadians but no claims for the Fenian invasions of Canada are to be admitted. As to claims of British subjects for the seizures of their cotton, Great Britain, through its Commissioners, doe3 not recognize them iu cases where such subjects took up their domicile in the South, as thereby they subjected themselves to all risks and contingencies of the war. All legitimate claims for cotton will be considered. It has been reported, without warrant, that they will amount to thirteen or more millions, but this is considered to be a gi'eat exaggeration. They will not probably amount to a million dollars. There will be 110 difficulty in ascertaining all the particulars as the Treasury Department has all dates of all seizures of cotton, names of owners thereof, and all particulars concerning the seizure. The Government is aware that a full list of British claims was recently published in that country but it also has information that many of them have already been adjusted, while others will not come within the provisions of the treaty. Among the claims which will also come before this Board will be that of our Government growing out of the purchase of saltpetre in the East Indies during the war, and which was seized by the British authorities. There are other miscellaneous claims which will come before this second Board. The San Juan question will be referred to the arbitration of a frieudly sovereign, probably the Emperor of Brazil.

From the high character of the documents accompanying the treaty, it is inferred that the decision cannot fail to be in favor of the United States. The treaty provides for the free navigation of the St, Lawrence by vessels of the United States, and for the use of Canadian canals 'on the payment of regular tolls. There are also provisions regulating the I privilege to fish in Canadian waters, but these have not been ascertained with suilicient accuracy to justify a statement of them.

The London Times, to-day, mistakesin saying that the treaty must be ratified by both Houses of Parliament, though it will require legislation to carry some of its provisions into effect.

TERRE HAUTE, IND.. TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 9, 1871.

-Thomas W. ConTreasurer of the of New Orleans,

resident—I am not much of a my forte is act ion, not speech

speaker making. I do not wi.h my remarks this evening to be repealed in the newspapers, for I see that what I said 011 the occasion of another reception extended to me since my arrival, has been entirely misrepresented, and I am credited with words that I did not utter at all. Therefore, I hope there are no reporters here to serve the present interview as they served the oilier to which I nave alluded. My duty as commander of the army of the country keeps me employed in military matters, and by employment I may be enabled to assist the nation in its civil and political interest but I do not wish to be considered a politician. I strive as well as I can to do what my official duty compels, and in doing that find myself amply qualified. I do not seek any civil position whatever, and do not wish to be suspected of doing so. Indeed, I should positively decline any offer of a civil or political position. I mean to devote my whole time in future to the study of the military art, not with the view of destroying, but as a means of promoting the good of all, even the lower classes of our citizens."

Judge Benedict, in the United States Circuit Court yesterday, gave a decision in favor of the Government against Westray, Gibbs & Hardicastle, for an extra amount of duty claimed 011 a cargo of rice imported in 1S64, with interest. The decision is to the effect that under the law the liquidation of the Collector is final. About $5,000,000 is involved in similar cases. The decision is to be carried to the United States Supreme Court.

A declaration in the suit commenced in the United States Circuit Court, by John Lawless, against Peter B. Sweeney, as Chamberlain, to recover the amount of money previously lodged by John O. Mahoney, of the Fenian Brotherhood, with August Belmont, was filed yesterday. The amount involved in $25,000.

CHICAGO, May 9.—Last week there died in this city Johanna Ready, aged one hundred years, and Rebecca Burke, aged one hundred and two.

E. A. Andrews, formerly of LaCrosse, Wisconsin, Republican, and for several years connected with the Peoria, Illinois, Transcript, died in the latter city Sunday.

A few weeks ago, J. M. Kimball, of Jonesville, Wisconsin, raised quite a large amount of money on forged paper, and left for Clinton, Tennessee, where he was arrested and taken back to*Jonesville. Yesterday he committed suicide, and his young wife died yesterday of a broken heart, caused by his disgrace, leaving four little children.

CINCINNATI, May 9.—The young Ison, six months old, of Secretary Belknap, who had been lying here sick some time, died yesterday, at the Burnett House.

The annual meeting of the Homcepathic Medical Society occurs here to-day and Wednesday.

A'meeting of the corporators of the Clinton, Portsmouth & Cincinnati Railroad Company was held yesterday. A complete plat and profile of thfe road were presented, and the committee authorized to make the survey was empowered to collect subscriptions for the payment of the same. It was further au-

thorized to make such changes in the route as were thought for the better. Committees of three prominent citizens each in the counties of Hamilton, Clermont, Brown, Adams and Lawrence, were appointed to open books for subsciiptions, with a view to organization.

John T. Johnson, Republican, was elected to the Board of Councilmen fxom the Eighth Ward yesterday, over Baker, Democrat.

In the Harrison murder case, in Brookville, Indiana, yesterday, the testimony for the State closed, and the examination of witnesses for Cheek, the prisoner, was commenced.

All the Difference.

The Ilcrald proceeds to nominate Gen Sherman as its candidate for the Presidency because he lias said that the reports of Ku Klux outrages in the South have been exaggerated, aud has expressed the belief that the passage of the Force bill was uncalled for and unnecessary, as well as unconstitutional.

Our cotemporary forgets that when President Grant was General of the army he expressed similar views while, now that he is President and a candidate for reelection, he sees things in a very different light, and thinks it indispensable to his own peace of mind that he should be vested with dictatorial powers. If Grant had never been promoted from Gen. Sherman's present position, it is probable he would still be of Gen. Sherman's present opinion.—N. Y. Sun.

HAIR

VIGOR,

For the Renovation of the Hair! Hie Great Desideratum of the A^e!

A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied or decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a

nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
