Too MUCH—UNBEARABLE.—And now comes one James Branham, of Spencer, and in a card in this morning's Indianapolis Journal says:

I see President Grant has gained 28 pounds since his inauguration. I have

fained

12 pounds in two weeks, so I think am ahead of Grant. We don't know how it is with Mr. Branham, but as to the President, there was tdo much of him before to be fatted at the public expense, and to have the papers coolly and deliberately tell an already suffering public that their horseracing President is being stall-fed at that high rate and at their expense, it is unbearable*

THE ORCHESTRA CONCERT.—Don't forget the Theodore Thomas Concert at the grand Opera House Wednesday evening. From present indications there will not be a vacant seat in that commodious and beautiful structure upon that most eventful occasion. We hope the*e will not, for of all the musical treats this city has ever enjoyed, we feel assured that it will be the greatest unless it be the opera of ft Trovatorc, which was so grandly rendered by Hesse's English Opera Combination last spring, which up to that time was never equalled in the history of musical entertainment in this city. Reserve seats on sale at B. G. Cox's.

A PITIABLE CASE.—Margaret Lindner is the name of an unfortunate young woman of Staunton, who formerly worked at the Filbeck House, in this city, and who was taken from there today in a state of insanity by a Constable from Staunton, who conveyed her to Indianapolis, where she will be cared for at the asylum. It is said that her present prostrated nervous condition was superinduced by the perfidy of a young man of her native place who refused to make good his promise to marry her. Her screams, as she was being taken from the Filbeck House, were frightful to hear, and her frantic struggles.for freedom terrible to behold. The case is a most pitiable one. v*

WAS IT A DIVINE VISITATION.—The Rev. James Hill, pastor of Asbury Church, addressed a large audience at that structure yesterday morning, in wbioh he took the grounds that the Chicago fire was not a demonstration of Dir vine wrath, citing the fact that in that greatest of conflagrations thirty thousand children were thrown out of homes upon the charity of the ohurches were thousand ohurch members rendered homeless. Others have taken the opposite view of this case.

We think the Reverend gentleman is right, and would suggest if other Rever end howlers should chance to lose what little property they have by fire, that they attribute it to a Divine visitation, and not to au inoendiary, even though one be oaught in the very act. Would an incendiary be the agent of God ^nd do they imagine that the cow that kicked over the lamp, if that be the origlon of the Chicago fire, was the agent of God?

A LIVELY COMPETITION ON TIME.— Late Saturday uight a freight train laden with stock, from St. Louis, passed through this city over the old reliable freight line, the Indianapolis A St Louis, bound for Buffalo, on passenger time. It appears that a St Louis drover, having a large drove of stock which he wished quickly transported to that city, shipped apart of them over the Toledo, Wabash & Western, and the remainder over the I. &St. L. road. As the drover no doubt anticipated, both roads are anxious to make the best time, and with that view the I. & St. L. officials, ordered that their trains be run on passenger time, which was done through this city, and we see by the Sentinel that the train was only six hours on the road between Mattoon and Iudianapolis, which "is lightning freight time to a certainty. The train was in charge of conductor Duddleson, and engineer Whitsit, and if the engine is as competent to its task as the engineer and conductor, we feel assured that the great reputation of the old reliale freight line will come out ahead of the T., W. &

If the T., W. & W. train does not get ditched before it reachm Buffalo, it will do much better than mauy of Its pre* deoettois.

MEW CITY MAP.

That New City Hap Ready for the Litho grapher.

Card.

We, this morning, had the pleasure of a call from Mr. Barnard, of the firm of Hay ward & Barnard, publishers, Philadelphia, who is now in our city in the interest of bis firm, which has taken the map of the city, which Engineer Strout has been preparing for sometime, off his hands, for reasons which will appear from Mr. Strout'a card appended to this notice. Mr. Barnard exhibited to us a copy of the map which was drafted by our efficient City Engineer, from the city records, and prepared by Mr. Hayward for lithographing, by H. J. Toudy, also of Philadelphia. All changes made in the records will duly appear corrected in the map up to the time of its publication, which will be in October, 1871, in case .the gentleman have sufficient encouragement from our citizens to publish the

k-.' \ik-l- '.'ir.i'.

same. »,4 MS The city and county have agreed to take one hundred and twenty copies, we understand, and if the citizens will subscribe for enough copies of the same to make the total amount taken three hundred copies, Messrs. Hayward & Barnard will place the copy in the hands of the lithographers at once, and within less than two month's time they will be duly delivered. Arrangements are being negotiated for the appearance of a cut of the Normal School and the grand Opera House on the map, and the directary of all the business men who subscribe will also appear on the same.

Mr. Barnard is now canvassing the city for subscribers and we hope he will meet with that degree of success -as will insure the publication of the map, for it is a.very accurate and desirable one, just such an one as our city is badly in need of, and which it will not get in many years should the present enterprise fail. The publishers find that they cannot proceed with its compilation unless they can have the assurance of disposing of three hundred copies at $6 per copy, as they are to be elegantly finished, handsomly mounted, and about 5 by 4—6 in size. 'MR. STROOTS' CARD will explain not only his position but the position in which his successors are placed. He says:

Having finished the survey and compiling of the map of the city of Terre Jaute, it is in justice to myself as well as to the parties who are going to take the said map and engrave, lithograph, print and mount the same, to say that I had canvassed for the sale of said map about six months ago, fixing the price at

$3.50,

but after having ascertained the number that could be sold, and the expense of getting up the same, I abandoned the work, ana now Messrs. Hayward! fe Barnard have undertaken to canvass ror the map, at a price which they think will justify their engraving, lithographing, printing and mounting a firstclass map RICHARD STROUT, city Engineer.

DRAMATIC AND LITERARY NOTES.

Maggie Mitchell has not left Long Branch, nor will she for some weeks. It is a boy this time.

Oliver Doud Byron closed a very successful engagement at +he Indianapolis Academy of Music, Saturday night.

Miss Anna Dickinson's new lecture, "Demagogues and Workingmen," is enlightening the laboring classes as to their position and opportunities.

Mr. Lawrence P. Barrett appears at the Indianapolis Academy of Music in Bulwer's "Lady of Lyons" for a short engagement, supported by the, academy company, this morning.

Miss Phelps, of "Gates Ajar" celebrity, will have a unique story in Scribner's for November. In this, she gives some "Passages from the Private History of a Public Nuisance."

The receipts of the week's engagement of the Katie Putnam Comedy Company, which closed Saturday night amounts to $1,800, of which over $700 was realized as clear profit, aside from expenses to Evansville, where they commence week's engagement this evening, having left our city at .5:40.A. the E. & C.

A grand course of lectures is to be in' augurated in New York City next mouth by the Mercantile Library Association. Secretary Boutwell opens the course, General Butler and Wendell Phillips will speak during the season. Mark Twain will read his latest nonsense. "Oliver Optic" (William T. Adams, of Boston,) is to make his debut as a lecturer in this course. Many other popular people will help to draw the people toSteinway Hall. Olive Logan is the only woman who is honored with a place on the course this year she takes Anna Dickinson's place. Anna has decided to give a lecture "on her own hook," however, independently of the course.

Secretary Boutwell lectures next Friday evening at Stein way Hall before this Association, in explanation of the financial policy of the Government. gg|

FIRES IN OHIO.^—Reports say huge fires are burning west of Columbus, and spreading in every direction. Many forms h&ve been burned over, destroying large quantities of grain, wood, fences, &c. It is feared the whole country around the city for miles will be burned, unless rain falls.

INSURANCE NOTES.

The insurance business in this city is lively at this time, and represenkafives of companies which are paying their Chicago losses in foil, are doing an immense business, we ar^leased to see.

Iusurance Superintendent Miller, of New York, requests the fir* insumnee companies of thatSMte to furnish an official report of their financial condition within a week.

The losses which suspended the North American Insurance Company sore estimated at from $600,000 to $700,000. The assets are claimed to be $800,000, and it is hoped all its losses will be paid.

Ip the National Insurance Convention

at New York, Saturday, a resolution was referred favoring the establishment of an office in that city for recording marine risks, as a protective measure. The Convention, without transacting anything important, adjourned.

There is considerable feeling in Chicago in regard to the conduct of the Republic Insurance Company, in resolving to pay twenty-five cents on the dollar and disband the company. It claimed to have four millions dollars capital, one million of which was paid in cash, and the rest in notes against stockholders. They proposed to pay only the cash on hand, but not to collect the notes. Policy holders are refusing to receive the twenty-five per cent., and the company will probably appear before the courts unless they pay up. —Associated Press Dispatch.

In the event of a suit, those of the stockholders who reside in this city, as elsewhere, may have to appear as codefendants and it may be that they will have to pay„ in the remainder of stock which they have already paid twenty per cent, upon, under the decision of the courts. We do not see how they can meet their obligations honorably in any other way than paying up their stock, that the losses of their com pany can be paid up dollar for dollar if that much stock be taken.

GENERALITIES.

MS**

The editor of the Louisville CourierJournal can say nothing more gracefully and forcibly than any man we know of.

A large number of the stations along the line of the Lake Shore Railroad are without water sufficent to supply,tjie engines.' -S?

Mr. Spurgeon advocates "church fairs" as the best mode of raising money for a good cause.

Ahitophel Smith and Jeremiah Sneak are candidates for the Virginia Legislature from the Staunton district.

It is hardly credible that but little over twenty years ago San Francisco was a barren waste, and to-day has 170,000 inhabitants, yet both are facts.

We find In the list of losses by the Chicago fire, as given in the Journal of that city, no less than eighty-nine newspapers and periodical establishments

A French chemist asserts that if tea' be ground, like coffee, before hot water is poured upon it, it will yiSd nearly, double the ai^ount^of^i^exhilarating qualities.

The following characteristic funeral item is from the Kansas City Times of the 10th: "The funeral of Mike Williams, shot by Wild Bill at Abilene, took place in this city on Sunday. Wild Bill paid the expenses of the funeral.' I

London, with a population of 3,000,000, has supported 200,000 paupers for years. The United States with 33,000,000 people, should therefore find it an easy task to take care of the 70,000 -sufferers at Chicago during the winter.

A. New York paper complains that Chicago journalists did not send out promptly to the country detailed accounts of the great fire. Answer is easily made. All the principal newspaper offi ces of the city were utterly destroyed Nevertheless the Jjedgert a little seven by nine weekly sheet printed in the West Division, published a very good account Monday afternoon. The Journal also, the same afternoon, published as complete an account as could be pre pared. The Tribune had an excellent account Wednesday morning. It was impossible to send special dispatches The telegraph refused them, not only to Chicago journalists, but /to the correspondents from other papers. The Cinoinnati papers were promptly on the ground, however, and details of columns have been furnished by all the morning papers of this city.—Cincinnati Gazette,

How Shall Chicago be Rebuilt. T$e prospects for a speedy rebuilding of a considerable portion of* the burntdistrict this fall were somewhat darkened yesterday by rumors of a strike among the la borers in several quarters. The movement was not general, but it appears that several gangs of workmen, who had been receiving $1.50 per day previous to the fire, struck yesterday for $2.50 per day. Some apprehensions .were entertained of a more extended strike, which would result in a sferious hindrance to building enterprises.

A meeting of property owners on Washington street, between Clark and Dearborn streets, was held a few days si nee. Judge Otis was in the chair and Mr. W. D. Kerfoot was appointee Secretary. Nearly all the owners of

Sudge

roperty in that section were represented, Gookins stated the object of the meeting, which was to determine what

the property owners would do in regard to the building up of that portion of Washington street. After mature deliberation the following resolution was adopted:

Resolved, That #e, the property owners on Washington street, oetween Clark and Dearborn streets, rebuild in first class style, on both sides of the street, with stone fronts, as early as possible.

Itwas determined that a uniform style of architecture should be adopted, and that the matter should be referred to some competent architect.

It is the general feeling that architects will have to take a practical lesson from the fire, and proceed after this on a new basis. A gentleman Who had occupied offices in one of the large buildings on LaSalle street, was asked yesterday by the owners if he intended to come back to the new building. His reply was, "It depends altogether on the manner in which you are going to rebuild. If your new building offers no better- security than the old one, I most seek quarters elsewhere."—Tribune,21.

ONE of the most thrilling incidents connected with tb« fire is related by Mr. E. Tinkham, of the Second National Bank. Befdre the fire bad reached the bank building, on Monday morning, Mr. Tinkham succeeded in getting $600,000 in green backs out of the safe. This amount lie placed in a trunk, andjiired a colored man to oonvey it to the Milwaukee Depot, promising the man $1,000 for the job. Fearing to be recognized in connection, with the precious load, Mr. Tinkham followed the man at some distance, but, owl#: to the crowded condition of tfae «tre£ts,so6n lost sight of hi«. Bein& overtaken by thefire,Mr.Tinkham had several narrow escapes from being suffocated, and at last, being driven to the lake, suoceeded in working his *ray to a tug* boat, and was taken around to the Milwaukee Depot, where he found the colored. man awaiting him, according to promise, with the trunk safely in his possession. Mr. Tinkham paid the price stipulated, and, taking the money to Milwaukee, deposited it safely in bank.

Destructive Fire at Cameron, Mo.

[Associated Press Dispatches.! CHICAGO, October 21.—An unfortunate tragedy occurred about midnight at the Chicago University, on College Grove avenue, resulting in the almost instantaneous death of Mr. Thomas W. Grosvenor, Cily Prosecuting Attorney.

Mr. Grosvenor was passing along the street, probably somewhat under the in fluence of liquor, when he was challenged by a university patrol. Mr. Grosvenor replied in an offensive manner, and was shotdeadin his tracks. An inquest is now being held.

There is considerable excitement over the shooting by the sentry of Col. Grosvenor. The young man who committed the deed is named Theo. N. Treat, a resident of Janesville, Wisconsin, ana astu dent in the Chicago University. He is under arrest. He belonged to the First Regiment of Chicago Volunteers, and claims to have acted in accordance with orders.

The Coroner, to-day, has been an inuest over the body of the late Captain '"bos. W. Grosvenor, who was shot dead at College Grove on Friday night by Theodore N. Treat, a sentry. After taking the evidence of several witnesses, the case was adjourned till 10 o'clock tomorrow.

Opinions are divided as to the conduct of tne sentry in shooting the deceased. Pe claims that he merely did his duty in accordance with the instructions of his officers.

J. H. McVicker announces that he will rebuild his theater at once in a1style equal to the one destroyed.

The Relief Committee made their reports last evening, and they show a favorable condition of affairs.

The Employment Society reports that the demand for laborers is larger than the supply.

The health" of the city is fair, although during the last two or three days there 'has been some increase in sickness, diarrhea and dysentery being the principal diseases. 2%

The shelter committee thus far have received about 2,400 applications for lumber with which to put up small houses for homeless families and about 1,300 of these applicants have up to this time been supplied with lumber contributed by lumber dealers and others, which is being framed into houses.

Aid for the Wisconsin and Mich igan sufferers. to-day Lieutenant General Sheridan, on bting officially informed of the state of affairs in Northern Wisconsin by Governor Faircbild, at once issued orders for the dispatching of 400,000 army blankets 2,000 overcoats and 100 wagon wagons for their relief.

SALT LAKE, Oct. 21.—The court was occupied all day long with the Hawkins adultery case. The cross examination of Mrs. Hawkins elicited nothing mate rially new. She testified that Hawkins gave no reason for taking otber women for wives, except that she had had her day, and it was Ibroper he should have some one else. She said she had borne him seven children at the time he took another wife.

The defense-offered no testimony, ex cept to prove the marriage of Hawkins with the second and third wives.

General Maxwell spoke for the prosecu tion, and assumed that the defense would rest upon natural marriage being part of a religious faith, argued that polygamy was an indirect violation of both eccle siastical and common law.

Mr. Fitch concluded at a late hour for ^}ie defense. He^rgued that Hawkins, being a Mormon, had no intention of committing crime, and the intention was essentia] to conviction that there was no law against polygamy when he took his second wiie, and he could not be guilty of adultery because he was legally married to the woman according to the usages and customs of the Mormon church.

United States Attorney Baskin will sum up this evening, after which the case will go to the jury.

A number of other arrests for lascivious cohabitation have been made. SAI/T LAKE CITY, October 22.—The jury in the Hawkins case came in last night with a sealed verdict, and on being opened .this morning was found to be guilty. The court room was crowded, and the announcement created much sensation. The counsel for the people moved the court that the defendant be taken into custody, which motion was stoutly resisted by defendant's counsel. The prosecution, however, were firm in their demand that the case should take the ordinary course,'and the United States Marshal, accordingly, was directed to hold Hawkins as a prisoner.

Time was allowed to prepare a motion for anew trial and arrest of judgemnt. The penalty of the Utah statute for the crime of adultery is imprisonment not exceeding twenty years and not less than three years, or by fine not exceeding one thousand dollars, or by both fine and imprisonment, at the discretion of the court.

This is a test case, and virtually places all polygamists at the mercy of the court, ana of the first wife, who under the act, is the only party who can hesitate proceedings against the husband.

The case was contested on both sides with great determination, and the charge of Chief Justice McKean to the juiy last nij|ht is spoken of as being eminently

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 ohecked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by it» use. Nothing can restore tbe hair wherefgi the follicles are destroyed, or the glandsfj trophied or decayed. But such as re-# main can be saved for usefulness by this(. application. Instead of fouling the hair^i with a pasty sediment, it will keep it'V: clean and vigorous. Its occasional useli will prevent the hair from flailing off and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can on!y% benefit but not harm it. If wanted1merely for a

HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does[no£ soil white cambric, and yet lafrta longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy^' lustre and a grateful perfume.
