Additional T.ocnl News.

IT was reported upon the streets lact afternoon or evening that ft ''well-known citizen" had committed suicide, which report proved to be unfounded.

SEE amusement columus for notice of the McKee Itankin Company, which comes to this city on the 2I of October, and will remain one week, during whicti time our citizens may expect some firstclass playing and a series of first-class entertainment one week, somethingthey have never enjoyed hitherto. The press both of Chicago and Milwaukee, speaks of each member of the company in terms most enthusiastic. We hope that our citizens will accord the management a most liberal patronage.

THE COURTS.

Ways that are Dark.

The Civil Circuit Court, Hon. C. Y. Patterson presiding, convened this morning, and after a call of the docket adjourned until nine o'clock to-morrow morning.

The Criminal Court, Hon. I. N. Pierce presiding, convened this morning pursuant to previous adjournment, and the case of the State vs. Samuel Tapscott, charged with the killing of Alex. Thompson, was called and again continued. The prospect is that this case will be continued from time to time until the accused will escape even a hearing, and thus will justice be defeated, as it would not did the case go before a jury on its merits. Of all the courts in either the East or the West, which we have closely observed, the Courts of this city are certainly the most unsatisfactory to justice of any others. Criminal cases are continued from term to term through "ways that dark" until the public feeling in the matter becomes abated, when the case is finally stricken from the docket or tried before a professional jury and the accused is acquitted, and soon, more likely than not, he will be holding a public office.

PERSONAL.—Mr. August Nippert, one of our oldest, most responsible and respectable citizens and merchants, leaves the city to-morrow for Pittslield, Pike county, Illinois, where, in the future, he will reside,.

We much regret to lose Mr. Nippert. and his accomplished lady from among our business men and the social circles of the city, where they have so long and so worthily enjoyed the highest esteem of many warm friends. Pittslield may regard itself as fortunate in having such an accession to its society and business relation's.

Circuit Clerk Hollinger, and several •other Knights Templar returned from Baltimore via the Vandalia line this morning. There were a number of Sir Knights from other points aboard the traiu, bound west from Indianapolis over the same line. Quite a number of Knights of this city returned Saturday, iind half of Toute's baud. The St. Louis delegation passed through the city yesterday over the Vandalia, by special train. All who were present at Batimore and have returned report a glorious good time while there.

Mr. Jerome C. Burnett called at our sanctum this moiling, accompanied by that horned toad which he captured out near Denver, but which escaped from him a few day$ since and which was fouud laying around loose on the streets by a geutleman, who advertised it in the Journal. as some may remember. Burnett is a splendid fellow, but ^he toad is a perfect "swell."

We understand that Samuel S. Early has determined to remove to the city of Baltimore, and offers his residence on Ohio street for sale.

THE PALMER COMEDY COMPANY.— Most of our readers doubtless remember the notice which appeared in the GAZETTE a couple of weeks since, of the great child wonder, "Young Americus," who at that time was appearing in connection with the Palmer Spectacular Dramatic Company at the Academy of Music, Indianapolis, in a series of interesting comedy entertainments, among which was the play of "Aladdin, or the Wonderful Lamp." The compauy appeared in that city two or three weeks before good houses each evening. After closing their very successful engagement there, where they received the applause of large audiences and very enthusiastic notices of the press, they went to Louisville and New Albany, where they had even better success, the Louisville press speaking in the highest terms of their performance, especially Young Americus, who can accomplish wonders with his little violin.

this morning received a telegram from Mr. Palmer, (whom we met at Indianapolis,)

Danville i3 being devastated with the matrimonial epidemic, and yet her old maids are not all happy. "It is very sad."

Eugene Sullivan was found guilty of murder in the .second degree, at Evansville recently, and his punishment was fixed at fii'teen years imprisonment in the penitentiary.

Articles of association of the Rensselaer & Chicago H. II. were filed with the Secretary of State Saturday. The proposed road is to run from the town of Rensselaer in Jasper county, direct to Chicago and has her capital placed at $200,000, divided into shares of $100 each.

The Governor has granted a further respite to Moses Davis, who was to have been hung on the 20th, order to enable the Supreme Court to decide the case. The respite extends to the 27th of October. Hon. Bayless W. Hanna, of this city, Attorney General of Indiana, appeared for the State.

A second attempt was made last Friday night to burn the carriage shop of Hon. S. A. Varbrike, of Danville, by some fire-fiend touching a lighted match to a bunch of hay adjoining the shop. Fortunately, However, the flames were observed in time to arrest the destroying clement if not the incendiary. Judge Lynch should hold a session of his court in that village.

A special dispatch to the Indianapolis Journa', of this morning, says that 'Win. Beeler, convicted of burning the bridge across Wild Cat Creek, on the T., W. & VV. R. R., on the 17th of March last, was Saturdaysentcnced to ten years imprisonment in the penitentiary and to pay a fine of twenty thousand dollars. This is equivalent to about sixty-five years imprisonment."

Mr. J. G. Doughty has just published in pamphlet form the "Articles of Association and complete record of the Editors and Publishers' Association of Indiana," ordered by the last meeting of the Association. The little work is valuable as a history, and full of interest to every member of the Association. A full list of the members is appended. It can be obtained by addressing, W. B. Vickers, Secretary of the Association.

The Indianapolis morning Journal says that on Saturday evening, about 10 o'clock, the Coroner's jury selected to examine into the causes which led to the sewerage horror, concluded its labors. Some thirty witnesses were examined, the burden of the testimony going to show that the accident was one not to be guarded against by ordinary care. The substance of the verdict was to exonerate the contractors and builders from all responsibility, a portion of the evidence showing that the workmen had been warned against excavating so close to the sheetiug. "Here endeth the lir3t lesson."

Red silk parasols are to be introduced next year. A seven-vear-okl girl at Huntsville, Ala., is an expert telegraph operator.

New Orleans girls complain that the young men "don't tease them enough." "Blind drunk," was the charge entered against an Albany belle the other day, and yet she was not happy.

The Nebraska University admits women as well as men to its full privileges. Only twenty-six Chinese women have landed at Sail Francisco this year.

A man calling himself Lord Harvey is beiug chased out of Wisconsin by four wives.

Swedenborg says that sex is a permanets,. fact in human nature. Men are men, and women are women, in the highest heaven as here on earth.

A learned Hindoo lady, who is lecturing in England, says the vice of intem.perance was unknown in India till the English introduced it there.

A young fellow was arrested in Chicago last Thursday for insulting a woman on the street. His defense was tliat the current female fashions had driven him crazy. He was told to go.

Over $90,000 in diamonds was displayed on the person of a woman in Saratoga last week. When that woman comes to lie upon her death-bed would she care to have the jewels spread over her.

The "Anti-Kissing Society" formed by the fascinating damsels at Saratoga, don't seem to work very well, as fifteen of the twenty-three members were fiued the very first week. There will be an overflowing treasury before long unless the society disbands.

The present style of shoes is crippling the women of our day. Ladies' shoemakers say there is hardly a young woman now who regards herself at all fashionable who has not bunions, callosities, corns, and enlarged joints and that the crop of these ornaments developed within the last four or five years is J^stonishing and pitiful.

The Revolution,the only representative organ of the true woman's rights movement, talks seuse when it says that '•women cannot guard too scrupulously the personnel of their cause. "It should be championed by clean hands as well as courageous, hearts. The best service some women oan possibly render the cause is to let it alone. It suffers for the

want of civilized, accomplished truly womanly advocates. No woman should ever dream of speaking on the platform unless she ha3 something specially im portant to say, and can say it with grace and power. If she cannot speak better than the average of the other sex let her hold her peace, as speaking is evidently not her mission. The bestser vice any woman can possible render our cause is to be the best possible woman Arguments can be answered, the shafts of wit may be parried, the mo3t eloquent appeals may be resisted or forgotten, but the charm of a true woman is irresistible as gravitation, aud the virtue that goes out from every true woman's life is enduring as the "sweet influence of the Pleiades."

NASHVIIiIiE, Sept. 23.—The speech delivered by Hon. Carl Schurz, of Missouri, Wedne.-day, has created a profound impression in political circles. The most significant incident connected with it is the following letter formally addressed to Senator Schurz, signed by several hundred ex-Confederate soldiers embracing every grade of service, from privates up to Major Generals. The signers generally are representative men of influence in the community.

NASHVILLE, Sept. 21,1871.

Hon. Carl Schurz: DEAR SIR: We, the undersigned, formerly Confederate soldiers, wish to express to you our high regard for yourself, aud our profound regard and admiration of the non-partisan,cultured and patriotic address delivered by you in this city. We admire the manly, independent spirit which refuses obedience to party when in conflict, with one'^convictions ofduty and right. We pledge you that we are no partisans, that we have a faith that no words can express in the sublime significance of the mission aud destiny of the American Republic that we honor and revere the national flag as the assured herald of that day when all the races of men of all rauks and conditions will be redeemed and delivered from all species of political and mental thraldom. We wish to turn our backs upon all sectional parties, and all parties groping in the moonlight of the past, and to ally ourselves with any party that will be animated with the spirit of civil and religious toleration, a broad and elevated patriotism, not bounded by State lines, and inspired with an abiding faith in the genius of our free institutions.

SENATOR SHURZ'S REPLY.

MAXWELL HOUSE, NASHVILLE, TENN., September 23,1871. GENTLEMEN I have received your letter, and without affectation, I may say that I cannot iind words strong enough to describe the joy it has given me. The spontaneous expressions of such sentiments as your letter contains, coming from you as late soldiers of the Confederate "army, may well be called an event of great significance in the history of our day. When your former comrades, as vou do now, rally once more around the flag of the Americau Republic as the symbol of universal freedom, equal rights, and universal government when they declare that they will turn their backs upon all parties "groping in the moonlight of the past," and discountenance that partisan spirit which is so apt to obscure the human reason, and to blunt the best moral influences of the human heart when they more fully recognize the identity of their true interests with those of our great common country—then every patriotic citizen will feel that the regeneration of the South is certain to be accomplished by her own people. If there is still lurking here and there a spirit which keeps alive the feeling of animosity and distrust, and which, by means of social proscription, intimidation or violence,, strives to impede the development of a free public opinion, you can render it harmless by your influence and example. If there are still disturbances of the peace and order of society occurring calculated to produce the impression that the security and the right8of citizens can be sufficiently protected only by the interference of the General Government in your local concerns, you can dispel it by devoting your energies to the enforcement of the laws thus proving the capacity of local selfgovernment to accomplish its legitimate ends here as well as elsewhere. If there is still an apprehension as to a secret design to subvert the logical aud legimate results of the war by a reactionary movement, you will remove that apprehension by demonstrating that the youug South has risen above the old prejudices and absolute aspirations, and is determined to build up again the prosperity and power ©f the States on a basis in harmony with the progressive spirit of the age. Men of courage and convictions like you will do nothing by halves. They will not look back when they have put their hands to the plow, aud I assure you your efforts will nave the sincerest appreciation, hearty applause and energetic support of every true friend of liberty and free institutions. Your rights wiil be safe in the security of the rights of all. Your power will be strong, in the restored brotherhood of all Americans, and the Republic will be proud of all her sons. I am, gentlemen, with fraternal greeting,

Your friend and fellow-citizen, C. SCHURZ. ST. LOUIS, September 23.—The settlers in Southern Kansas, at a meeting held at Baxter Springs, a few days ago, passed a series of resolutions embodying something new under the sun. They want a new Constitution for their State, and to prevent a land monopoly they favor the passage of an act to forbid the sale of land to persons already owners to a sufficiency, and to limit the amount persons not owners may acquire by purchase or iuheritenco to 160 acres, as a national measure.

They demand the revocation of all grants of lands to railroads, except so much as may be necessary to the working of the roads and the passage of an act of Congress that wiil secure to actual settlers upon public lands one quarter seceach, free of cost, with a vested right from date of settlement.

They demand a repeal of the National baukiug law, aud believing that money should be coined out of the cheapest material, they demand that the Government shall make it out of paper, issue it to the people, and make it a legal tender for all public and private uses, to the end that that there shall be but one kind of money for rich and poor alike.

They favor the immediate payment of the National debt according to the terms of the contract, a strict revenue tariff, opposed to the so-called protection theory, and denounce the acts of Congress, which, under pretence of enforciug the Fourteeth Amendment, Clothe the President with the power of setting aside the right of self-government, and using the armed bee) of Ale troops to secure bi» re-electiqn.

TERRE HAUTE, IND.. MONDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 25, 1871.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—'The Commissioner of Internal Revenue, in a circular says that the complaints of the manufacturers of tobacco are well founded, that a large amount of tobacco in the aggregate is sold and consumed without the proper revenue stamps. The Revenue office has under consideration a more effectual mode of affixing revenue stamps on wooden packages, so as to increase thedifficulty in removing them, aud aiso a different mode of cancellation.

He concludes his address with a letter to the revenue officials,calling upon them to put forth efforts to suppress these frauds. He also calls upon the manufacturers to aid and co-operate with the Government.

The Commissioner has also issued a circular remedying the complaints of the manufacturers of plug tobacco, that their selling agents, when offering their tobacco for sale, encounter tobacco which has been sold so low that it is impossible to compete with such prices.

Judge Underwood, United States District Judge for Virginia, has written a letter in which he says he feels very confident that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution, together with the enforement act of May 31, 1871, have secured the rights to female citizens of Virginia to vote, as full as are now exercised and enjoyed by male citizens.

A oommittee of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad Company left for Cincinnati day before yesterday to invite President Grant to particpate in the formal opening of that road from Chicago to Leavenworth.

Nevada's Way.

Bayard Taylor writes as follows to the New York Tribune: In walking out this morning, I came across along beam projecting from the gable of a house directly over a deep ravine. There was a slight platform under the beam, and a short rope dangling from its end. "What a fearful place this is for a swing," I said. "Yes, so it is," said my friend, "and a man took a fearful swing there not four months ago." "How was that," said I. "Why, thus it was, a man shot another man in oold blood. He was arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to be hung. He was known to be a desperate vagabond and an incendiary, and suspicions of many dark deeds were upon him. His chances for escape through executive clemency or legal technicalities were considered by many of our best citizens who, on the whole, concluded to make a sure thing of it. They therefore went in a body to the jail, escorted the prisoner to thi3 spot, and, after a solemn presentation of the facts in the case, they told him to prepare for death, and adjusted .the rope about his neck. No sooner was the knot tenure tb»n be swore a California oatfc

that no d—d coward should have the pleasure of choking him to death, and leaped down the chasm. He came to the end of the rope before he did the bottom of the chasm, and so was choked to death at last." This little incident is scarcely worthy of mention, it beiug an affair of such common occurence here, but, as one of tne ordinary phenomena of a mining country, I have not felt at libertv to omit it.

George Francis Train to Return and Stump the States. GENVEA, August 20.

I place ni3T children in school for three years. Mrs. Train will remain here. I return in the Baltic from loth September, arriving in New York 25th, and commencing my 701st Presidential mass meeting October 1. Two hundred appointments. I received a grand ovation at Cork on September 14, where the Trades and Internationals nominate me in behalf of the workingmen for the American Presidency. I intend to showEurope that our $1,500,000,000 securities now in Europe will be wiped out on the failure of Vanderbilt, which will smash the national banks and wipe out the debt. Stand from under. There is a fearful doom hanging over Wall street.

Nobody laughs iu France—a perpetual nightmare. Thiers is preparing a coup d'etat^ perhaps for a new-made military civil law. Gladstone is crushing the Lords between the crown aud the people. The grand power of the day is the Iniernational. Pagan when speaking on religion Fenian when reviving Ireland's freedom aud Communist when on French liberty. I am all fire, so make the most of it.

I am coming home, but disgusted with the damn-phool-doing of my country. I would rather have seen Washington in ashes than to see our independence and manhood signed away in the Washington treaty. I have fought a singlehanded battle to emancipate my people for years. Iam tired of it, but cannot stop. I feel all alone. I pu3h on toward the White House because some uncoutrolable influence surrounds me. How cau you account for my career? Duplicate me if you can! Find another man who has earned the right of being President on the ground of his brains, his education, bis morals, his courage and his acts. Find auother man that manes the people pay all his halls, gaslights, advertising, and give him thirty thousand a year for the privilege of calling him crazy, and nominate him every night for the White House.

Europe is blocked up by American monarchists. No Republicans ever come from America. Flunkey ism, tody ism and shoddy macadamize all the hotels. Our hireling Americans would crawl teu miles on their bellies to shake hands with a king. Every American who keeps away from the polls five years on account of his respectability, and every American livingabroad five years, should be denaturalized by law.

Grant has packed his cards and loaded his dice for 1872. The loan swindle in London subsidize the press, and the military do the rest in America. But Grant hasiashed the horses fourteen months too soou. The times are changing. The people are waking. Seeing this, I feel annoyed to lose my interest iu them. I am tired. I know not what will become of me. I have all my family abroad, and return a waif. I never would speak again if I could help it. I have done more for my country than any man of my years and have tested more but I have kept my honor, and must go on aud work out my destiny.

This is my first letter and my last, so throw it in the basket, or publish it with my constitution for France, written in the Bastile on the blank lines of a Jewish bible. I see Secretary Seward and a party just alighting from an omnibus. He is younger than I. You may say to the lecture associations that I shall keep my appointments, commencing October 1. Don't be surprised at anything that you may get from Paris or London. The devil is organizing infernal machines, and hell is agitated with Christian reforms.

THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF AMER»A.

Improvement in Weaving Apparatus. A very ingenious method has beeu devised by a Manchester (Eng.) mechanic of joining the ends of old warp to the end of a new warp in weaving. According to this arrangement, the ends of the old warp to which the ends of the new warp have to be joined are held in a clip, and the ends of the new warp are also similarly held. The two sheets of warp arc? then placed iu the machine, and the sheet of old warp being placed over the sheet of new, they are then acted upon by the machine as follows: The warp threads are first laid evenly by means of brushes, and a pair of clips or nippers take hold of both warps after they are laid these nippers take the threads into a pair of rollers set at an angle to tighten the warp threads, and the end thread of the old wstfrp and thatofthenew are detached from the other threads of the warp by a reciprocating pair of nippers. The threads thus taken by these reciprocating nippers are laid by other nippers over the side of a tube, by which the two threads are formed into a loop aud a hook passed through axtube takes hold of the two warp threads and draws them into atube, so forming a knot, the ends of the threads having been severed by a cutting blade to allow this. Finally, the knot is'tightened by the threads being drawn through a narrow nick, which will not allow the knot to pass, and the threads are cut close to the knot.
