A California coroner has lately disinterred the body of a youth whose cerements covered a sequence of five hearts from a poker deck. His having died with such a healthy Ihish upon him is regarded as suspicious.

The New York Mail says: "To settle a long-troubled question, we wish to say that it is settled that when a gentleman and lady are dancing together it is the gentleman's duty and privilege to decide when to step. It is as much a rudeness on his part, though, to continue along time without ceasing, as it is for the lady to stop suddenly."

A number of Methodist divines, together with some friends, lately visited St. Simon's Island, near Brunswick, Ga., to photograph the venerable live oak under the umbrageous branches of which John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, preached his first sermon in America. It is probable that the picture will be engiaved on steel and offered for sale.

Adolp Moak, of Dubuque, just dead, was wealthy and eccentric. He drove a span of grays that cost £2,500 in gold, and under the seat of the carriage was an iceeliest in which he carried wine and provisions, so that he could dine whenever he chose.

Colonel Jimflskjr, of the gallant Ninth New Yolk, writes to the Boston Common Council that as he has received permission from Governor Clallin to march his troops into the city, he don't care a picayune if they don't lift his request for a reception from the table on which it was laid by the honorable body, as their action or inaction is a matter of perfect indifference to him. Thus doth the spirited J. F. revenge himself.

The play opened anew school of acting and a fresh field of pleasure for amusement goers in the &erio comic («ernian drama. Km mot is an artist in the full seni-e ot tho word. Ho is graceful, easv, polite and polished on the stage, and interprets the German-American character a manner both faithful and delicate.

vulgarism, abstaining from grotesquenoss and picturing truly all sides ot the good hearted German, he has made the initial step in a new walk of the drama which must prove winning a:id attractive. He acts to nature over-does nothing undertakes nothing but what he can ivell and artistically do, and bo-sides ali this, the ladies say he is posiiively handsome!

We will not undertake to' follow him through the melange of last evening, for he has a versatile genius, and rnrri^s the audience with him whether in acting, in singing, in dancing or in playing upon his wonderful harmonicon. All we can say is—go, "and see how it is yourself.7'

One of the charms of the play, wherein it differed from any ever before* produced in oar city, was the excellent support given throughout. A. II. Hastings as Col. Grafton, W. H. Southard as Bobbitt, J. B. Morton as Smasher, W. li. Gray as Boker, J. H. Hodges as Jenkins, were ajl good, while Miss Morris as Katrina, and iVTiss Thompson as Moppy, were unexceptional in their acting, particularly Miss Thompson, who is periectly adapted to her role. Louis Locken, "Little Fritz," deserves to be mentioned also, as he was perfect. We express the belief that the entire company gave satisfaction, and that the Opera. House to-night will not be large enough to hold all who apply for admisI sion.

rilAPTKi! XXIX.

AYo have now completed our observations on the law of real estate, and reached that s/'ason of the year when the young men—those for whose benefit these articles wero more particularly intended—have but little time for study. AVo have therefore, concluded to stop their publication for the present, with the intention of completing them when comes "the scar and the yellow leaf."—Uockvillc Patriot.

Chapter 3rii gives the readers of the Patriot "rest" on the "Elements of Law" until "the sear and yellow leaf" season of the year. Poor John K. Stevens lias gone to his home. He prefers to spend his remaining years within the walls of the .State Penitentiary to reading even one chapter of the "Elements of Law." The readers of the Patriot will see the wisdom of his choice. John K. Stevens knew that did he attempt to read the work aforesaid so as to lind any law or point therein, would produce congestion of the brain and consequent dissolution, while if he should go the penitentiary he would stand his chances of surviving yet many years.

This fact being taken into consideration by the author of tho elements aforesaid, and the fact that much of his valuable time of late has been occupied in his search for "Warner's colt," and the "uncouth" appearance of the animal, when discovered by him, having so shocked liis sensitive nervous system that he has lost track of the context (?). of his work, has led him to "let up on" his readers until the "sear and the yellow leaf" shall be pendant, to the branches of the trees and "young men for whose benefit the articles weie more particularly intended," have more time for ttfiwh/. His next essay will he "why do criminals prefer imprisonment for life, to reading my 'Mlements of Law?' It will bo very exhaustive—to the reader.

IJEOATJ RIT.KSGOVERNING IJ AT LKOADS. —As many questions arise in the minds of the traveling public as to the rules governing railroad travel we give below what a writer ou the subject "The following 'rules of the road' are based upon legal decisions, and ought to be universally made known. The courts have decided that applicants for tickets on railroads can bo ejected if they do not otter the exact amount of their fare. Conductors are not bound to make change. All railroad tickets are good until used conditions 'good for this day only,' or otherwise admitting timo of genuineness, are of no account. Passengers who lose their tickets can be ejected from the car unless they purchase another. Passengers are bound to observe decorum in the cars, and they are obliged to comply with all reasonable demands to show their tickets. Standing upon the platform, or otherwise violating the rules of the company, render a person liable to be put from the train. No person lias a right to monopolize more seats than ho has paid for and any article left in a seat while the owner is temporarily absent entitles him to a seat on his return."

Tho above are not tho "rules of the road" in all cases A passenger is not required to tender the exact amount of their fare in all cases, in all the States. Nor does the leaving of articles in a seat bjr owner necessarily entitle him to the seat upon his return. And there are circumstances where tickets are not good until they are used.

THANKS.—Messrs. Warren, Koberg & Co., of the elegant mammoth dry goods establishment at the corner of Main and Fourth, Opera House. Block, will please accept -the thanks of the management of the Terre Haute House dining-room, and the guests thereof, per the kindness of Mr. Boggs, one of the gentlemanly salesmen of that popular dry goods establishment, for "shoo fly" fans furnished the guests.

THE number of real estate owners in this city sums up 1842, from actual count of tax duplicates by City Treasurer Paddock. That includes the new additions recently made to the city. Three fourths of the real estate owners of the city own as many as two pieces of ground.

YOI'TH.—A few days since a

couple of young bloods ofthis city undertook "a little game which the same it was euchre," and in which they were euchred as follows: One of them had been "under the weather" for several days, and it further appears that he had a conditional agreement with a young lady to call at her father's residence and spend the evening, provided he should be well enough that evening in the event of his not being able to till the engagement, his friend should go. The sick young blood wrote her a note upon the previous forenoon, to the effect that he was not able to come, and his friend wrote her another that he could nqt, as he would be out of town that evening. However, it so happened that the y. b. was able to be out of bed that afternoon, and that his friend did not go out of the city, and after tea the two worthies proceeded down town but lo! they had not gone far in that direction when they were met by the young lady in question. Their and her surprise can better be imagined than described, the surprise of all parties was so complete that no explanations followed, and we presume the whole affair is yet a mystery to all the parties.

SUCCESS—the

at the First Presbyterian Church last evening. There were about two hundred persons present, and a most enjoyable timo was had. The Finance Com* mittee announced this morning a net profit of S7o.

THE ONLY OKIGINAE.—They have on exhibition at the Buckeye Cash Store, the original "old mother Emmett fan" with which the mother of the Emmett Guards fanned all her progeny. So says the book-keeper of that establishment.

MESCEE.—An irate and muscular female indignantly kicked a couple of mules and a buckboard off a street crossing, this morning. Pity she didn't kick the driver out in the middle of the street for stopping his team there.

ENTERTAINED.—The clerks at the Postoflice, and P. O. Lobhy, have been highly musically entertained all day, through the kindness and condescension of an old organ grinder.

THE Pacific and Atlantic Telegraph poles and wires are going up rapidly along the line of the T. H. ifc I. R. R., being completed 24 miles, this side of Indianapolis.

The soldiers preserved admirable dis cipline. While the Versaillists are afraid to rush upon the barricades, they are mill ir.g, circumventing and burrowing.

LONDON, May 25.—The latest dispatch from Paris says the Luxemburg has been partially blown up. The Palais Royal is still burning. Only one-third of the Louvre has been saved.

Fighting still continues at the Hotel de Ville and at the terminus of the Northern Railroad. Marshal McMahon with his stall"', has removed to the Place Vendome.

BERLTN, May 25.—In the German Parliament to-day in the debate on the bill incorporating Alsace and Lorraine with the German Empire, Bismarck said that the task he undertook when he became Minister, to establish an Empire, was nearly accomplished, his health was bad, and his personal wish was to retire from active duty. He remained only as an advocate for the complete restoration of the Provinces of Alsace and Lorraine to the fatherland. He complained the lack of confidence shown by Parliament. Un less the amendments it had made to the bill now before it were expunged, he would withdraw7 the measure and let the Emperor appoint a responsible Minister in his place. A vote was taken and the bill was sent back to the committee for revision

LONDCJN, May 25.—In the House of Commons, Mr. Rayland gave notice of his intention to move a resolution that the treaty must be submitted to Parliament before ratification.

Mr. Gladstone opposed any immediate expression of sympathy with France, for the outrages in Paris. The Govern ment had as yet received no official information of these acts, and the account in the public prints were doubtless exaggerated.

NEWR YORK, May 25.—A Washington correspondent states that the following is understood to be the vote on the ratification of the treaty:

In" the city, but not voting—Messrs. Ferry of Michigan, and Tipton. The official copy of the Treaty was delivered to the President this morning, and thence transferred to the State Department, where it will be placed in a box prepared for the purpose, and sent to England.

The Senate discussed the question of their dignity lbr some time to-day, and the insult. put upon it respond-

ents, but without taking any action adjourned until 10 o'clock to-morrow. The Tribune's special says: There is excellent authority for the statement that Secretary Fish will shortly retire irom the Cabinet and be appointed a member of the tribunal of arbitration which is to meet at Geneva for the settlement of the Alabama claims.

Vice President Colfax passed a comfortable night and slept well, and he got up half an hour this morning. His physicians report that lie is gradually improving, though still very weaiy and requiring quiet and rest.

The motion for the arrest of judgment, with argument, will be heard to-morrow. CiiiCACiO, May 25.—The Presbyterian General Assembly made an excursion to the suburban retreat at Lake Forrest.

The conflagrations have nearly all been extinguished. In all cases they were caused by the shells of the Versaillists, and not by the Communists. A portion of the Louvre was saved. Most of the precious works are safe in the vaults. Last night ami to-day the troops refused to give quarter and killed all who fell into their hands.

May 25.—Information from

Douglass county, Mo-, says the house of John Hatfield was surrounded on the night of Monday, the 15th inst., by a party of men who (ired several shots into it. After daybreak Hatfield discovered two of his assailants and shot and wounded them. Subsequently Hatfield gave himself up, and while being taken to the county seat in charge of an oilicer he was overtaken by several men and killed, his body being riddled by bullets.
