Served him right. Every "rooster" in Terre Haute who deliberately perches himself upon the railing alongside of the Buckeye Cash Store, and amuses himself by "squirting" tobacco juice upon the dresses of passing ladies, should be sent to the Stewart bastile until he found other employment, or ridded himself of the disgusting habit of chewing that most detestable and obnoxious of all weeds—tobacco. Such dead beat "squirts" should not be tolerated in any commumity unless they learn to keep their place better.

[Special Dispatches to the Terre Haute Gazette.]
PARIS, May 29.—The fighting at Belleville, Menilomonten and Pere LaChaise was desperate. No quarter was given women or children. The military has been established in the city. Executions are progressing in Champs De Mars, Park De Monceaux, and Hotel De Ville. From fifty to one hundred insurgents are shot at a time. No one is permitted to leave Paris without a pass signed by McMahon.
The troops, fearing incendiary fires, have caused all the cellar gratings and other openings to be hermetically sealed.
Among the hostages shot by the insurgents were Abbes Suia and Deguerny, Jesuit Father Olivam, Canbert, Bargy, Abbe Allard, banker, Jecker and twentyfive gens d'armes.
The last baud of insurgents was crushed at the cemetery of Pere la Chaise. Three thousand prisoners arrived here yesterday.
The disarmament of the National Guard is proceeding. A multitude of people have been arrested. The population of Paris are enthusiastic at their deliverauce. Nearly every member of the Commune was shot or executed immediately after capture.
The Western & Orleans Railroad lines were opened to-day. Provisions are scarce and the market empty.
PARIS, May 29.—A portion of the army which entered the city is returning to Versailles.
The Fifth, Fourteenth and Sixteenth Arrondissements and Belleville and Villete quarters remain under occupation. The city is quiet, and the streets are thronged with sight-seers. Fires are still burning inside the Tuilleries and Hotel de Ville. The discipline of the army is admirable.
VIENNA, May 29.—The naturalization treaty between the Austria Empire and the United States of America, which was signed by Baron Von Beust, and Minister Jay, last September, has been ratified by Riechsrath and will be submitted to the Hungarian Diet on the 25th of
June. Twelve

The trials of the Communist leaders, taken alive, will commence during the present week. Their conviction is inevitable. It is generally believed every one will suffer death.
WASHINGTON, May 30.—'The Southern Claims Commissioners in session in Washington have published a list of those who have declared, under oath that they remained loyal adherents to the cause and Government of the United States during the late war that they never yielded voluntary support to the Confederate Government. The list embraces one thousand names the greater number of which belong in

The following bulletin was posted yesterday at the door of the Vice President's room. "The Vice President slept better than on any night since he was attacked.- He is able to sit up quite a while at a time, and now only needs strength, which he is gaining, though slowly."
NEW YORK, May 30.—Suit has been instituted in the United States Court against Charles Robert Ostenacken, Russian Consul, for libelling the bonds of the Credit Foncier of Poland. M. S. Sheldon demands $380,000 damages.
PITTSTON, PA., May 29.—Every man who was taken out of the pit alive yesterday morning, is in eminent danger. Most of them can live but a few hours, and a few of them are dead this morning.
It is impossible, at this moment, to obtain the names of those who have died to-day, but the physicians in attendance now emphatically assert that none of those thought to be rescued can recover from the injuries sustained. There was a great difference between the arrangement of the West Pittston shaft, burned on Saturday, and that of the Avondale. Iu the Avondale shaft there was a furnace, but here there was none, and air, was forced down by means of a large fan. The breaker caught fire at two o'clock on Saturday afternoon. The fire was entirely extinguished down to the bottom by seven o'clock in the evening.
It is now confidently believed that if the men in charge of the rescue had thought this to be the construction of the work, and had procured a new fan, and set it in operation immediately, that enough air could have been forced down to maintain the life of the men who were behind the barricade but no fan was brought until it was too late, and most of the men perished for want of air.

nent representatives of various enterprises, especially railroad, went to St. Charles yesterday morning to celebrate the completion and opening of the railroad bridge which crosses the Missouri river at that point, and which will be immediately used by the North Missouri Railroad.
GALVESTON, TEXAS, May 29.—On Saturday a large crowd assembled in front of the Exchange Hotel to hear Greeley's address on the political topics of the day. He said "As I am on the eve of departure from this State, I have been invited for the first time to speak on political matters. I shall speak with deference to the kindness, and with regard to the feeiings of all, and trust my remarks will tend to harmonize differences, and, if possible, analyze their causes. I feel we are at the commencement of a new era. Since I have been in Texas I have repeatedly heard complaints that the people of the North habitually misrepresented the feeling and acts of the Southern people, at least that portion of them that does not sympathize with those who at present control the East that they were generally and systematically belied that the Northern people think Texas a band of outlaws and desperadoes. Such is not my understanding of the Northern opinion. In the early history of the Stqte, doubtless, a number of men were attracted hither who could be very well spared at home, and were not particularly welcome here, or elsewhere. Soon after the war, complaints were made and believed that colored people sometimes suffered from their late masters' violence. We have heard nothing of this for two or three years. I believe at this day not so much'violence occurs in Texas as in New York City. Certainly there is
not
months are al
nearly so much
said
about it.
With but an equal population in Texas as in New York, there are more desperadoes in that city than in Texas, and it is harder work to manage them. The North does not think Texas a laud of the Bowie knife and pistol. The proof that that the State is in good repute is shown by the steady. increase in the population from other States. There is a great desire to emigrate. In this, perhaps, Texas is a single exception, without it, may be, Oregon. Texas alone is rapidly gaining ground. Other States may increase because losses are replaced by larger gains but Texas does not lose one, the reason for which is that the Northern press are just to Texas, and intend to be just to her. All letters I shall write from here, and all I shall write about her after I leave, will show that such will be my representations, for I can testifiy that property and life are safe and protected in Texas. While the Southern people complain that the North does not understand and misrepresents them, it may also be said they in turn do not understand the Northern people. This is all wrong, and unfortunate both ways. They should, if possible, be allied. I hope and believe they will."
Here Mr. G. dwelt at considerable length on, war causes of war, and slavery and alluded to the
assassination of President
Linclon as follows "When the proclamation was issued by President Johnson charging Jeff. Davis and the Southern leaders with complicity, and also that the Southern people had countenanced theassasination, I rejoice to know that the call for revenge was overruled by the forbearance of the North. Any deaths caused by legal process for treason after the war would have caused great bitterness. Therefore I rejoice that I belong to a people wise enough to recollect this. It was widely circulated that I was con. demned by the Union League for becoming security for Jeff. Davis. Those who condemned me were beaten three to one, and while whole thousands denounced me, the better seuse of the North justified me and I did this out of
no
particular
regard for Jefferson Davis, nor for any political friendship for we were always opposed to
eaoh other.
The act on my
part was to reach heart of the Southern people, who felt that their cause was involved with Jeff. Davis. Therefore, I did that for the Southern people, not for Jeff. Davis, though they were equally guilty with him. The general feeling of the North is to let by-gones be by-gones. I have no idea that proscription will be maintained, nor would it have been so far but for certain vitiating actions on the part of the Southern people, It will, however, be very soon utterly abolished, and it is for this reason that I have opposed politieal amnesty. A general amnesty should pass, and then let us all be as we were before the war."
After some remarks upon protecting domestic manufactures and the necessity for encouraging them, he closed with an eloquent peroration respecting the future of Texas and the United States. Mr. Greeley was listened to with most marked attention.
When at Columbus, on Friday, the Germans wanted Mr. Greeley to address them at the Casino House, There was a full house and he spoke for twenty minutes, comparing the successful establishment of the German and Anni vitimaliters, their performers and significance in behalf of the Government by and for the whole people. The hall was draped with the flogs of Prussia and America, and those in attendance were quite enthusiastic.
LEAVENWORTH May 30.—Yesterday's Times published the following correspondence:
LEAVENWORTH CITY, April 29.
To Hon. Horace Greeley: DEAR SIR—Your many friends in Kansas desire to hav« your views in relation to your name being brought before the next National Republican Convention, in 1872, for the nomination for President. Without any disrespect to General Grant, wrffcelieve that no living American statesman has the claim of yourself.
Very respectfully, your friend, E W I I A
LABIMQR®.
!.
NEW YORK TRIBUNE OFFICE, NEW YORK, May 4, IS MY DEAR SIR I have yours of the 29th ultimo, asking a pointed question with regard to our political future. I must respond in great haste. I trust never, henceforth to be an aspirant for any office or political position whatever but I fully propose also, never to decline any duty or responsibility which my political friends shall see fit to devolve upon me, and of which I shall be able to fulfill the obligations without neglecting older and more important duties. I have not yet formed a decided upinion as to the man, who ought to be our next Republican candidate for President, but it seems to me advisable that he should be a steadfast, constant believer in the good old Whig doctrine—one Presidential term. Yours, HORACE GREELEY.
The Times remarks, editorially: "Mr. Greeley has many warm friends in Kansas. In the Southern portion of the State Greeley clubs are already organized. The letter itself was evidently written for publication, and places Mr. Greeley before the people as a canaidate for the Presidency."
