RETURNED—SATISFIED.—Mr.

Joseph

Lambert, on whom Dr. Peyton operated for cataract two weeks ago to-day, returned to his home at Fountain Station, this county, yesterday, the operation being in every respect perfectly satisfactory.

JOE MACK, agent for Hart, Ryman & Barney, the star minstrel troupe, put in an appearance to-day. They show at Dowling Hall on Thursday evening next.. They have had a very successful Southern tour, having drawn large houses in all the principal cities of the South, and the press unite in praises of them.

HOPES.—At the time we go to press our fellow-citizen, Jacob Hager *is in much improved condition, though not entirely out of danger. It was reported last night that he was very dangerous, but his nocturnal change for the worse only proved to be a temporary relapse, we are glad to say. Hopes are entertained of his recovery.

THE popular Fannie B. Price troupe will play "London Assurance," at the grand Opera House, Monday evening, in which piece the entire strength of the company will be introduced, all arrayed in elegant new costumes. Everything is new but the. piece, and that never grows old. Popular prices and a popular company will attract popular audiences.

W. G. ITAMSDELII, chief operator in the Pacific and Atlantic telegraph office in Dubuque, has just fallen heir to $150,000, by tho death of an uucle in Boston.—St. Louis Times.

The gentlemeuly and accomodating manager of that company's interests in this city is deserving of like good luck, and we hope he may be thus made happy as the Miller, eto.

ENVIOUS, jealous, spiteful bucolic local editors are' informed that it rained in Springfield last night like blazes. .Put that in your pipes and smoke it*—Springfield (lit.) Register.

We can attest that fact from our own experience, and we would also take the liberty of informing the bucolic local of the Register that it just more than rained like blazes in Terre Haute about the same time.

ROBKRT COLIIYHR'S son was to have boon married on Tuesday of last week, but house, church, furniture and all were burned the day before. On Wednesday the wedding took place, the young bride being dressed in a oalico gown, the only dress saved.—Exchange.

That was sensible. The young gentleman can now have the pleasure of protecting and supporting her whom he vowed to oherlsh and care for, in the fullest sense ofthe word.

THE Mark Smith Comedy Company will make their first appearance in this city at Dowling Hall Monday evening of the coming week, for a short engagement. This company is one of rare merit, having enjoyed crowded houses and enthusiastic auditors in all the principal cities in the country, including a recent engagement at Cincinnati, and at present at Indianapolis. We feel assured that Dowling's beautiful hall will be crowded each evening during their stay with us, though they come at a time when our people's great favorite, Fanuy B. Price, is playing an engagement at the grand Opera House. Let our theater-goers patronize both entertainments (not the same evening, however) and they will be happy.

AX IMPORTANT CONNECTION.—One of the most important western railroad connections for passengers is over the Indianapolis & St. Louis and Springfield, Illinois & Southestern railroads from Indianapolis to Springfield, the Capitals of the great twin sister States of Indiana and Illinois. So close is the connection that a "running switch" is often made by the Springfield and Indianapolis through car, as was the case yesterday at Pana, where the two lines intersect, and where the through car is transferred to the I. & St. L., if coming east, and to the S. I. & S. E., ifgoisg west. The two

Gen

Capitals are

but ten hoiltfcof travel apart, according to the time wole, and almost invariably are the trains, both ways, on time.

The time between this city and Sprlttgfield is but seven hours, which item through travelers between the two points will do well to clip and post in their hats.

The 1. & St. L. road is too well and favorably known to need any mention. The S. I. &S. E. is a new and elegant road runuing from Shawneetown Beardstown, and with the exception of a few miles, is completed thejentire length of the proposed line.

the gentlemanly and most efficient Su perin tendent. Springfield has other important railroad connections, but our lime and space will not admit of further men itoil at this

Miss FANNY B. PRICE.—To-morrow evening this brilliant young artiste, who has been so enthusiastically spoken of by the press throughout the country, will coinmence an engagement at the Opera House in the character of "Leah." On a recent professional visit to Albany, N. Y., Miss Price receivii the following poetical compliment, from the pen of Alfred B. Street, Esq.:

Oh Genius from thy starry hight Grand glances dost thou cast below Robing the common earth with light, Sending o'er lite a rapturous glow.

Genius, art thu personified. Bright Fanny, in thy peerless reign 1 Thou sway'st tny scepter far and wide, And transport binds thy jewelled chain.

Nightly before thy magic shrine My heart hath bowed a slave at will Thy glorious gifts are all divine, A seraph, Lut a.woman stilL A seraph in thy loveliness, Thy wondrous charms of mind and heart A woman in thy power to bless, And heal with bliss love's wounding dart.

Thy voice, it is a warbling bird's Thy grace, it is a curling cloud's The sonl melts tender at thy words, And fancy's dream the whole enshrouds.

How like a Queen thou tread'st the stage, In all thy deep and teariul woe Enchantress, now thy spells enrage' The heart and make its pulses glow

Oh how t#y splendid beauty beams, Night's loveliest star, earth's proudest gem What living radiance from the st reams, Thou nature's crowning diadem.

Each waving of thy drapery stirs The blood in darts of keenest fire Ah myriad are thy worshippers, And thus I woo thee with my lyre.

Look out for a crowded house to-mor-

row night!

GRAND EXPOSE PROMISED.—This evening Professors Von Vleck and Wilson, the celebrated medium detectives, will appear at Dowling Hall, and, according to advertisement, proceed to demonstrate the shallowness of Spiritualistic manifestations by exposing the tricks of Mrs. Keigwin, Mrs. Ferris and other trick sters, and we hope, in the presence of hundreds of our citizens, who can determine for themselves, "If'tain't Spirits, then what is it?" The Professors yesterday challenged Mrs. Ferris to appear at Dowling Hall and perform any of her tricks that they cannot explain and expose. So far, we have not heard whether she has accepted the chalenge or not. We would advise all our readers to be present at Dowling Hall and see for themselves

THIS city has the reputation of having the poorest accommodations of any city of its population in the West for djunken men. When an inebriated individual leaves his cups and endeavors to search for "his own vine and fig tree," or crabapple tree as the case may be, he has no assurance but that he may be run against by a defective sidewalk or a lamp post and have a Mansard roof erected over his optics, and in that condition go home to the wife of his bosom, then and there by her to be accused of having been effectually landed out of his friend's house by running against a pop bottle

IT seems to be the policy of the Gas Company to look at the almanacs and turn the gas off from the street lamps for just the exact number of hours that that authority says the moon will shine, utterly regardless of the condition of the weather or the fact that some of the nights are as inky blackness when the moon is shining at any other time. Night before last it was almost impossible to pass along our then muddy streets. Not a single street lamp was lighted. Won't the Council, or some one with proper authority, give this matter attention, and "let us have more light."

FIRST-CLASS NEW ROAD.—One of the finest pieces of new railroad we have ever been over is the Clinton, Gilman & Springfield, a branch newly constructed intersecting tiie Illinois Central at Gilman one hundred and ten miles from Springfield. Superintendent Sheldon, late of the Indianapolis & Cincinnati Junction road, is the efficient and ever present superintending officer. It runs through one of the most productive and beautiful portions of Illinois, and directly through Barclay. It was built under the auspices of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. .7

A CURIOUS FACT.—Yesterday morning when the northwest bound train over the Springfield, 111. & Southeastern Railroad reached Springfield, it was discovered that the headlight of the locomcyve was broken and that the bleeding form of a lifeless prairie chicken was lodged against the "reflector." It must have been a tremendous concussion, and the train must have been making lightning time, as usual, to have broken such thick glass.

DRAMATIC AND LITERARY NOTES.

The Black Crook is coming, it is said. Mark Smith and company at Dowling Hall Monday evening of the coming week.

George Alfred Townsend has gone to Salt Lake, and will write letters from there to the Chicago TYibune.

:i ?t

Miss Fsnnie B. Price will commence an engagement at the grand Opera House in this city to-morrow evening, in her great character of "Leah, the Forsaken." She will be here ten nights.

Miss LOUISE SYLVESTER commenced a dramatic engagement last week at Ottawa, Kansas.—Louis Times.

As a result the denizens of that rising young city are delighted, aud are raiding the "cheap clothing" houses for store clothes in which to array themselves.

The Indianapolis Evening JonrnaC says that the Lisa Weber troape is drawing good houses at the Metorpolitan. The lovers of burlesque are richly repaid for the expense of admission. Mr. James Vincent, of the Weber troupe, is one of th« most accomplished artistes in the business. .. -vj-

The largest salary which any French

Oriand Smith,"of Springfield, is journalist receives at the present time is paid to Edmond About, of the Paris Soir. He gets 40,000 francs a year.

Emile de Girardin receives 25,000 francs for writing daily one column of editorial in the Liberie. Some writers of the present day in thi* country are happy If they

can secure sufficient remuneration upon which to eke out a scanty subsistence. Mr. Lawrence Barrett is playing a three weeks engagement under the general management of Messrs. Leake & Dick' son, Indianapolis Academy of Music Mr. Barrett's immediate interest being looked after by his own agent, and the prince of gentlemen and good fellows Mr. Frank B. Cilley. This evening Mr. Barrett, supported by the Indian apolis Academy Company, will com mence an engagement of three evenings at Dayton, Ohio, thence to Louisville for one one week, under the same man agemeut, and suppored by the same company. In May Mr. Barrett goes to Australia and Europe, for an engagement of two years, under the management of Mr. Cilley, where we feel assured a grand ovation awaits the distinguished American comedian, who certainly is one of the most finished, artistic and accomplished artists we have ever seen on the stage.

It was his financial difficulties that led Mr. Cleveland, proprietor of the Hamburg Hotel, at Hamburg, Iowa, to shoot himself but we do not see that he has benefited himself or his creditors by the act.

Lord Gordon, a wealthy Scotch gentleman, has recently invested largely in land near Pelican Rapids, Otter Tail county, Minn., intending to settle a colony of his countrymen and build up a town.

Bishop McTyeire, of the Methodist Church South, protests against the custom of holding love-feasts with open doors, a practice which now almost universally prevails. He thinks the interest in these meetings is greatly impaired by relaxing the old rule.

Hon. John Allison, Register of the Treasury, states the steam tonnage of the country for the year ending June 30th, 1871, to be 1,687,637 tons, showing an in crease during the year of 12,543 tons. Of this immense steam tonnage less than 50,000 tons are regularly engaged in foreign trade, all the rest being employed in our home trade, which is protected by the act of March 1st, 1871, from all foreign competition.

A Great Wrong—Why it is Bone. It is generally admitted by candid Republicans, and by nearly all acquainted with the facts, except the most unscrupulous supporters of Grant, that thete was no sufficient reason for placing nine counties of South Carolina under martial law. It daily becomes more evident that the object of the Administration in depriving whole communities of their most valued constitutional rights, has been to create in the North, for political effect, a false idea of the condition of affairs in the Southern States and in the South to secure the retention in power of the- swindling carpet-baggers who have so shamefully abused the authority with which they were intrusted, but who, almost to a man, are in tavor of the re-election of Gen. Grant. For the purpose of enabling an unscrupulous and ambitious Executive to retaim his office for another term, the sentiments of a people are systematically misrepresented a reign of terror has been established in a peaceful country and in a section where the civil courts are in full and uninterrupted operation. United States troops are used to arrest and drag to prison, without any opportunity for defence, whoever may happen to fall under the suspicion of their political opponents, or become the victims of malicious and peijured accusers who have feelings of private revenge to satiate.

MURAT.—"Murat," said Napoleon, was a most singular character. He loved, I may rather say, he adored me. With me, he was my right arm—without me, he was nothing. Order Murat to attack and destroy 4,000 or 5,000 men in such a direction, it was done in a moment leave him to himself, he was an imbecile, without judgment. In battle he was, perhaps, the bravest man iu the world his boiling courage carried him into the midst of the enemy, covered with plumes and glittering with gold how he escaped was a miracle, for, from being so distin-

fiished

a mark, everyone fired at him. very day Murat was engaged in a sinle combat, and returned with bis sabre ripping with the blood of those he had slain. He was a Paladin in the field, but

in the cabinet destitute of either decision or Judgment." ¥t

HAIR VIGOR.

AYEB'S

A I O

For the Renovation of the Hair! The Great Deslderntmn 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 'trophiedor 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.
