Additional Local Neirs.

WHEN the Terre Hanto papers have nothing else for "fillinK" they indulge homilies on the necessity of the construction of water works in addition to the facilities afforded by the Wabash.—Indianapnlia Journal.

And when Indianapolis editors have nothing else to write about, they amuse themselves writing squibs about Terre Haute, which, while it evidently does them good, does Terre Haute no harm. "Do it some more."

THE Green castle Banner says that "the dedication exercises of the Universalist church atFincastledrewoutalarge concourse of people on Sunday last. Rev. W. W. Curry preached the principal sermon, and was followed by Rev. Mr. Foster and Miss LeClerc. The church will seat about GOO persons, yet more than double that number were unable to obtain even standing room on the occasion of its dedication.

This, we believe, is the only house of worship erected by the Universalists in Putnam county. It cost over $6,000, and is entirely free from debt."

Which is saying very much indeed the congregation at Fincastle for there are but few churches free from indebtedness when dedicated—and in many cases for years afterwards.

PERSONAL.—Prof. B. F. Baker and his estimable ludy left the city for their home at the "Hub," on the night train, immediately after the concert. They carry with them the kind wishes and "God speed you" of many friends made in this city, who will ever cherish their memory, and at any and all times greet their return with pleasure and characteristic open-hearted Western hospitality. We join with all their numerous friends in the city in wishing that their days may be long upon earth, that the noble art of music may be advanced.

A. H. Ben ham, of the Musical Review, and music dealer on a large scale, of Indianapolis, and Mr. Ora Pearson, a tenor singer of the Capital city were in the city last evening, stopping at the Terre Haute House, and both attended the concert, the latter participating, as is well known.

M. O. Frost, of the Marshall Herald, and about fifteen other Marshall folks, were in the city in attendance upon the concert last evening. They were evidently much pleased.

Mr. John Hough, representing Eastern moneyed firms, who was here recently, and loaned considerable money to our business men, is again in the city, making his headquarters at the office of Hosford, Boudinot & Brown, where he will be pleased to see any of our business men who wish to borrow large amounts of money, they giving satisfactory real estate security. He will remain in the city several days.

VERSAILLES, September 1.—In the Assembly yesterday a vote of confidence in Thieiv, proposed by Dutauti, was carried by five hundred and thirty against sixty-eight. The result of the vote caused confusion and excitement among the Radicals, who became furious over the triumph of the administration. The Deputies of Left, frantic with excitement and chagrin at their defeat, attempted to create uproar in the Assembly. After some difficulty the President succeeded in restoring order. A11 expected attempt will be made by Radical Deputies by demonstrations to compel the Assembly to dissolve. Members of the Left announce their intention of appealing to the country.

NEW YORK, September 1.—At a late hour I'tst night, a fight occurred at the corner of Fourteenth street and avenue A, between a number of ruffinsand some Germans. During the fracas Paul Bulger, an oid man of 64 37ears, was knocked down and beat and kicked about the head and face in a most brutal manner. He was conveyed to the hospital, where he died about one o'clock this morning. He refu?ed to give the name of his assailants to the police, and no arrests have yet been made but the authorities have information which will doubtless lead to their capture.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—The Grand Jury in the Court of General Sessions will reassemble this morning, when the special indictments, drawn up by Assistant District Attorney Sullivan, against Messrs.

The evidence before the Coroner has been under investigation for some days. It is understood that the bills will be brought into court at an early hour today. The term for which the Grand Jury was convened ends to-day, and they must either present the indictment or abandon the charge. -f

The following is the Herald's special correspondence: ST. THOMAS, August 22, via HALIFAX, N. S., August 81.—There was a terrible hurricane on August 21, in and around this port.

It swept along the neighboring islands, but prevailed with the greatest fury in St. Thomas. The destruction of life and property is awful. Trees were uprooted, houses unroofed and merchandise scattered in all directions. A heavy sea indicated the coming hurricane and mast vessels were prepared for it, so there is comparatively iittle damage to shipping.

As far as the town of St. Thomas is concerned, this was one of the worst hurricans on record. Although the inhabitants lashed down and secured their houses in anticipation of it, they are left without roof to shelter themselves. Several persons were struck dead by flying fragments. Buildings are laid waste and impetuous, torrents of water washed away part of the docks. Signal Station, ou Water Island, has been seriously damaged. Fears were, at one time, entertained that the floating dock, which was sunk shortly after the last hurricane, would be entirely destroyed.

The following are the additional particulars of the hurricane: ST. THOMAS, August 22, VIA HALIFAX, August 31. —Another hurricane has swept this unfortunate island, overturning every house and laying the place in ruins. Yesterday, about 1 A. M., a gale broke from the east, shortly afterwards shifting to the northeast, from which point it blew more fiercely until noon, when the wind veered round slowly to the north and fell on the island in a terrific hurricane. It then shifted to the northwest and blew with great violence until 5 P. M., when there came a lull, which lasted uutil 8 P. M. At this hour the hurricane again swept over the island from the south. Its duration was not so long as on the previous visit, but Hs violence was equally great. The

storm of the greatest fury lasted only two hours. Closely following in the wake of the hurricane came an awful gale from the south aud the southwest which raged for several hours.

Hundreds of dwellings have been swept away, and not a house has been left standing undamaged ou the island. Some 0,000 persons have been left houseless and destitute, and nearly 150 persons have been killed, mangled or disabled by houses blown down, the bricks and tiles flying all around during the hurricane. Already some thirty corpses have been dragged from under the ruins strewn throughout the streets. There have been no casualities to shipping with the exception of a British bark loaded with sugar, which was at anchor at the mouth of the harbor, and which broke loose and went adrift toward rocks in the channel. It is said to have become a total wreck. Two French steamers that recently arrived here, drifted about and got fast on ground but the English steamers Corsica, Tyne and Delta, as well as the American steamer Florida, at anchor here, weathered the storm handsomely. The latter, however, having to cut down her masts to save her from going on the island.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—A special to the Tribune, dated Halifax, N. S., August 31, says: There probably never was a finer four-oared race than that which4took place in Halifax harbor to-day. The unusually large number of competing boats, the spirited start, the almost even contest down to the stake-boats, between five crews, the struggle narrowing dowu to four and then to three, and on the home stretch the final tremendous effort of an English, an American and a Nova Scotia crew, ending by the narrowly gained victory of the former, make the race one of the most brilliant events in the annals of American sports. The course was three nautical miles in length. In drawing for position, Taylor's crew got No. 2, giving them a place near the piers. Renforth's crew came next, then the three Nova Scotia crews, whil« the American erew got the worst position on the outside and near the eastern shore of the harbor.

At 10:4 the signal gun was fired, and the swift gigs leaped away so near together that it was impossible to say which got the waterfirst. TheRocheboat fell behind after a few minutes, but the other five kopt pretty well together. After rowing steadily for the first two miles, the Renforth crew turned first, then the Taylor boat, then the Prior crew, next the Americans, and last the Barton crew, the sixth now being as good as out of the race. The Americans lost two boat lengths in turning by the stupidity of some judge, or other official, who was laytng in a long black boat, fastened to the stern of their stake boat, which considerably increased the distance they had to make in turning. Coulter's trcmendeous strok soon gained our boys part of their loss. The Barton crew were shaken off and left behind. In a few minutes an exciting struggle began between the two Tyne crews, Prior's Nova Scotia crew, and the Belgin crew.

The Taylor crew led, the Renforth crew next, about a boat length behind were the Nova Scotias, and last the Americans, but when they had settled down to the hard pull of the home stretch it soon became plain that the Renforth crew, deprived of the powerful stroke of their leader had.no chance for victory. They steadily lost, the other boats drawing away from them, perceptibly at every stroke. They continued to pull steadily, but were so far behind for the last two miles that no one paid any attention to them, all eyes being fixed on the three leading boats. The advantage the two English crews had gained by their position proved to be considerable, for it gave them smooth in shore water along the wharves, while the Americans, being out in the stream got the full force of wind and rough water in mid channel.

To everybody's surprise, the Nova Scotia crew pulled splendidly clear down to the stake boat the third falling badly in the rear and not regaining her lost distance. The Americans think their boat led a little all the way down, but it is difficult to tell which was ahead, for the boats were so far apart the distance across between the two outermost being a good half mile. The Americans who had been perhaps four boat lengths behind the two others, when they commenced to get out of rough water, gained rapidly until they got advantage of a course as smooth as that on which the Englishmen were rowing.

The contest between the three leading boats was intensly exciting. For the last few miles of the race, the crews strained every muscle, and all pulled quick strokes of 42 and 44 to the minute, the Americans and Provincials appearing to keep more power in stroke, but not pulling together with the admirable mechaHical precision, whijh long practice had given the Englishmen. The crowd upon the stands and wharves had all their eyes concentrated in an intense stare when the boats shot by and up to the winning line, and did not raise a cheer for some minutes after the gun fired to announce the close. Few among the thousands assembled, were certain which had won until the judges finally announced that the Taylor crew were the victors by 45 minutes and 45 seconds, winning the $3,000 prize.

The Prior crew was eight seconds behind the victors, and the Americans came up five seconds later. The Renforth boat was 12 or 15 lengths behind and the other boats far in the rear. There was little enthusiasm over the result.

The Biglin crew say that besides the disadvantage of a bad position, rough water and loss of distance, they suffered by having two boats instead of one to row around at the turning point. They met with a serious accident while off the central wharves of the city. Going down they struck a half sunken piece of timber, which they thought at first had staved their boat in and which caused their boat to. leak badly. The timber

TERRE HAUTE, IND.. FRIDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 1, 1871.

appeared to be a piece of shipstufif and they carrried from it a chip about eight inches long by five wide, which lodged across their bow and remained there all the rest of the race. Coulter thinks this accident threw them back 3 or 4 lengths and lost them the race.

The Renforth crew claim that they were fouled by the Taylor boat whiie passing George's Island, at the time they were out of sight of the judges' and reporters'boats. If the judges allow their claims both will be ruled out, and the prize will go to the Prior crew. This splendidly contested race has demonstrated that the Tyne oarsmen have no such superior powers as they have been credited with. The two best crews in England rowed to-day, but, one was badly beaten and the other barely escaped defeat, at the hands of the Nova Scotia crew, who were unknown out of their own waters, and who never rowed in a first-class match, and a United States crew, which although containing good oarsmen, was newly organized and never had three weeks, practice together..

It is not certain that Coulter will row in the single scull race to-morrow. He has been ill for sometime, and it was only by taking large doses of quinine that he was able to pull in the American boat to-day. His powerful stroke, in spite of his illness, convinced good judges that when in good condition he is the best orsman that pulled in any boat in the race to-day.

HALIFAX, N. S. September 1.—The single scull race, for the championship of the world, came off this morning in the presence of an enormous concourse of people, and was very exciting throughout, and was won by Sadler, Brown coming in second, and Kelly third.

SPRINGFIELD, III., Sept. 1.—Our citizens experienced a decided sensation yesterday in the shape of an abduction by the kidnapping of a lady who was to have been made a wife last evening.

One of our young and wealthy citizens was engaged to a young lady residing in Springfield, and the weddiug was to have taken place last evening, The expected groom was a Protestant and the bride and a Roman Catholic. Her friends, while consenting to the marriage, insisted that the ceremony should be performed by a Catholic priest but to this the young man and his friends had decided objections, and the young lady most interested said she would abide by the decision of her lover. All the arrangements were made, the bridal trousseau procured, a house rented and furnished, and 300 invitations issued.

Yesterday the girl most mysteriously disappeared, and the young man has been using every exertion, with the assistance of his friends, to find out her whereabouts, but not a trace can be found of her. When the hour of three o'clock P. M. arrived, hundreds of our citizens had gone to the church to find it closed, darkened and dreary, and were informed that there would be no wedding, the girl having disappeared.

BELXIAIRE, O., Sept. 1.—The Rev. Father Maher was yesterday run out of town by the members of his church. He is charged with appropriating the funds of the church and violating his vows of chastity.

CHICAGO, September 1.—Mr. Cheney is out in the papers this morning with a letter replying to Wbitehouse's letter of yesterday, to the Wardens of Christ's Church. He denies a portion of the Bishop's letter. It is now said that there will be no confirmation at Christ's Church until the Bishop requests Mr. Cheney to present the candidates, which he will not be apt to do. It is also said that the action of Mr. Cheney has from the first had the cordial support of his Wardens and vestry. Indeed, he has been in some respects a follower rather than a leader. At the meeting of the vestry last night he offered for the fifth time to resign if his resignation would be accepted, but the offer met with an emphatic no.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—The assailant of of Paul Bulger, who was murdered last uight at the corner of Fourteenth street and Avenue A., surrendered himself today. He gave his name as Lawrence J. Murtha, and states he struck Bugler with his hand only after he had been hit in the face by Bulger.

The answer to the writ of habeas corpus in the case of Dr. Rosensweig was dismissed to-day on account of the inquest being in progress.

HAIR ViaOB.

AYER'S

A I I O

For the Renovation of the Hair!

The Great Desideratum of the Age!

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 oft 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

HAIR DRESSING,

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.
