Additional Local News.
IT is whispered that a private marriage took place in this city the other evening. Two more unfortunates,
Weary and troubled, Rashly importunate, Went and got doubled.
RAN AWAY.—One of Barrack & Son's coal teams ran away this morning, starting from the Buntin House, and took a turn around the square. All the damage was a few hitching-posts torn out of the ground.
THAT our citizens seem to be alive to the fact that cold weather will come is evidenced by the numorous piles of coal being dropped in front of their residences. Now is the time to buy coal, as it is as cheap as it will be this season.
PERSONS desiring to gamble will please give us a call. We have a box of "quoin," which we would like to bet against a car load of block coal, and take either side of any issue that has even chances. Come on, ye sports.
BURT & RIDGEWAY'S Minstrels are to be here on Monday and Tuesday eve nings next, and from present appearances will have large crowds. Over fifty seats are already sold, so if you want a good seat you had better be looking after it
NEW THEATER.—Some party, whose name we could not learn, opens at Harmonia Hall, on Fifth street, on Sunday evening next. We also learn that all plays are to be given in Germau. This is patterning after the old country style of Sunday theaters.
THE POLICEMAN'S SONG— I want to be a police, And at the corner stand

'Do you thitik two shillings' worth of muffins would kill me, doctor he asks. 'It might,' said the doctor. 'Half a crown's worm would for certain, then?' 'I should think it would,1 s&H the doctor.

Railroad Meeting at Middlebar j, Indiana. MIDDLEBURY, IND., Nov. 7,1871. Editor of Terre Haute Gazette
A grand mass meeting of the citizens of Harrison and adjoining townships, was held in this place on last evening, which was attended largely by ladies and gentlemen from all parts of the county.
The meeting was called to order, and Wm. H. Long was elected President, Henry Bolick, Vice President, and J. W. Dollison, Secretary.
The meeting was opened by. a short address from the Chairman, after which Wm. Null was called upon and reponded with a short and appropriate address, based upon the utility and advantages of railroads in Pennsylvania.
Rev. E. Coopriderwas called for and responded accordingly. In the course of his remarks Mr. Cooprider showed the necessities and advantages of a railroad through a county. He also explained plainly and heautifully the adinirable plan upon which the company propose building their road through our county from Terre Haute to Cincinnati.
Mr. Cooprider having concluded his remarks, Hon. Benjamin Niblock, of Ohio, was called for, who responded with quite a lengthy speech. Mr. Niblock, in speaking of the quality of our coals, assured us that the coal found in the coal fields of Clay and adjoining counties, after undergoing the most severe chemical tests, proved beyond a doubt to be the best coal for manufacturing purposes in the United States. He then showed us the worthlessness of our coal without the facilities of a railroad. He further explained to the minds of the people the difference between a contract for minerals and a lease, and further told us that of all the railroads that had ever been built, there has never been one agitated upon the minds of the people upon so liberal a plan as this one, neither asking the people for land or money, but merely asking the permission of working their minerals by paying them liberally for them. Mr. Niblock closed his speech by referring the people to those districts which have been contracted along the line of other railroads, and if they were injured by so doing, advised us not to contract.
Professor Rany, of Davies county, Indiana, next took the floor, and gave us a very enthusiastic speech. He in the course of his remarks toid us that the company did not want us to give either our bonds or our money, but merely give them the privilege of bringing wealth and prosperity to to our doors. He also gave us the history of the discovery and adoption into use of coal in Pennsylvania. Professor Rany's speech was very enthusiastic and was highly appreciated by the audience.
We then had speeches from several other gentlemen of distinction who were present.
A demonstration was called for to ascertain how many were in favor of a railroad, which was responded to almost unanimously. A call was next made for contracts, which, we are happy to say, was promptly and heartily responded to by contracts from all sides
After the business was concluded, a motion was made and carried to have the Secretary prepare the minutes and submit them to the county papers and also to the Terre Haute GAZETTE for publication.
A motion was.then in order toadjourn, and the meeting adjourned to meet Thursday evening, November 9,1871.
The excitement is intense all the cry is railroad. Even the women and children have caught the mania, and it is all the talk in every gatherings in every place of business. and around every fireside, and contracts are being given by the score. With such men as Niblock, Rany, Crothers, and a score of others like them, at the head of an enterprise of this kind, success is certain. It cannot fail.
J. W. DOLLISON, Secretary.
Breakfast and Buckshot.
At a little village called Welsh Hills, near Granville, Licking county, resides a Welshman named Evan Davis. Living with him is a niece of his, Miss Francis Davis, grand-daughter of the late Judge Lazell, of this city. For some time past the family have been accomodating with bed and board a young man named Thomas Phillips. Now Phillips appeared to be a man of leisure, and like all other people when they nightly resign themselves to the delightful care of old Somnus, he had a great fondness for sleeping late of mornings. He laid abed one morning last week until long after Mr. Davis' family had eaten breakfast, cleared the table and washed the dishes. Finally arising from his "virtuous couch," sluggard-like he sought the dining-room to find not what he sought, a hot and palatable breakfast waiting him, but on the contrary, everything cleared up and the usual morning kitchen work all done. This was too unlike a city restaurant, where meals can be procured at all hours, to be

Ninth street market property? The prooeeds would aid materially in building a City Hall.—Journal.
Why did the city ever purohase "that useless Ninth street market property is a more important question to be asked. And it is a question whioh the tax payers of this city may soon desire to look into. Sell it, of course. It was useless when built useless when purohased by the city is useless now, and will become more useless every day. The city wants a City Hall, and the suggestion of the Journal is a good one. 1
leasing to the sumptuous Phillips. Inhe felt hiehly insulted, and at once determined to have revenge for such treatment Seizing a "shooting iron," he stepped out into the back yard, and meeting Miss Francis Davis coming from the spring with a bucket of water, he deliberately pointed the deadly weapon toward her and discharged it, lodging nineteen buctrahot in one of her thighs. The young lady screamed murder at the top of her voice, which quickly brought Mr. Davis to the scene. Phillips threatened to shoot Davis also, but the old man mounted the fiend unhesitatingly, and snatching the gun from his hands, thrashed him like a dog. Immediately afterward Davis instituted prodeedings for the arrest of Phillips, but the cowardly rascal hastily struck out for unknown quarters, aud is still at liberty.— Colupibus Journal.

A $25,000 CANING.—Thomas J. Sutherland had rented an office of Dr. Dyer, for the rent of which he, being a lawyer, performed sundry duties for ths venerable doctor. The lawyer, however, appeared to value his labors more than did the doctor, and applied for remuneration, which was refused. The lawyer, or course, broughtsuit against his employer to recover $2,500. On Saturday the employer and employe met and words passed, resulting in a sharp encounter between the doctor's stick and the lawyers's hide. The oonsequence is an action of tresspass in the Circuit Court against Charles V. Dyer, the damages being laid at $25,000. Mr. Sutherland is anxious to obtain an extensive practice, apparently having undertaken two salts against one person on his own account. —Chicago Mail.

There is universal satisfaction among men of all parties over the result of the election.
Charles O'Connor says the Legislature will at once proceed to erase from the Statute Book the nefarious laws that gave so much power to rascals who had so nearly ruined the credit of the city through mis-government.
The suit against the ring officials will not be allowed to langush, although they would not be pressed quite so hastily as heretofore. It had been the object of the prosecution to place the evidence before the people, in order that it might be properly constructed before the election, and thus give honest citizens an opportunity of turning out of office the scoundrels who had so long defrauded the city, but the suits would proceed, as there was no intention of allowing them to rest or to relieve the rogues from the legal lash which they so richly deserved.
Ingersoll returned to New York on Monday night. He had been in constant communication with his friends, and ascertained that the limitation of the order of arrest which had been granted against him expired on Saturday. On Tuesday he appeared at the

He sent a messenger to the sheriff" saying that he awaited his arrest with considerable impatience, and had gentlemen in readiness to sign a bond for his release. His arrest cannot be effected until a new order has been granted. This probably will be done to-day.
A new order of arrest has been granted against Thomas Fields. He is lying ill at his residence, and this mornipg the formality of an arrest was gone through with, and bail immediately given.

NEW YORK, November 9.—Mr. Tweed was interviewed yesterday, aud said he was not prepared to answer any questions regarding his reported resignation, but it is pretty certain the report is untrue. Tweed said the success of the Reform party took him completely by surprise he was totally unprepared for it. Tweed's counsel stated yesterday that he would hurry the trial of the charges if the Reform party had no wish to delay.
The Tribune says that Tweed has been rapidly transferring his property into other hands. Ten days ago he sold another piece of valuable property, which cost two hundred thousand dollars, to his son. He has also been selling stock in various railroad and other companies, in most instances at a sacrifice. He no longer figures as a director in the Third Avenue Railroad his name was dropped for the reason that he has lately sold his stock in that line. He held at the time Mr. O'Connor began the suit against him seven hundred sharesofthe Metropolitan Gas stock, worth about $1,365,000. lie ordered its immediate sale after the suit began, and though the rate then was 195, he forced it on the market and disposed of it for about 170. He is reported to have attempted to sell the lease of the Metropolitan Hotel.

have personal knowledge of the facts Neither the Prosecuting Attorney nor the Court has the right to instruct as to whom you should indiet. It would be dangerous to private rights and an inva siou of your prerogatives, if even this Court should advise you whom you should indict, and if this Court may not do it,far less may any person who does not sustain to you official relations. Should any one, not of your body, seek to influence you by written, printed or verbal communications, to any one of you, you will inform the court of such fact, that the offender may be dealt with for contempt. Neither will you allow yourselves to be affected by any comma nications printed or to be printed in, nor any editorials written or to be written for, any paper published here or elsewhere. More particularly ought I to warn you against being influenced by certain letters published in some, if not all, of our city papers, purporting to have been written by the Executive of this State to the Attorney General, and to the District Attorney of this Circuit, ad' vising the indictment of certain persons named therein, purporting to be the letters of the Governor, and having been extensively circulated. Your respect for our honored Chief Magistrate personally, and for his official position, might lead you to attach to them grefft weight, but they should not exert any influence upon you whatever. The Prosecuting Attorney of this Court informs me that he knew notning of the letter said to be addressed to him until he saw it published in the city papers. If it was written by the Governor it was only a private letter to the District Attorney, and should have been in his bands before it was given to the papers. It wouid be inconsistent with the high reputation of our Chief Magistrate for integrity and legal bearing to suppose that he designed those letters published in order to influence your action as a Grana Jury. The possibility that such would be their effect would be enough to deter him from giving them to the public. You ought not to assume that the respected Chief Magistrate of this State would do an act highly indecorous and improper in auy individual, and above all, in one whose duties are not judicial.
