THE regret to learn that Mr. Chas. !N. Gould was seriously injured yesterday afternoon by falling from the window of a new building he is having erected, a distance of fifteen feet. He was cared for at Arnaud's drugstore, and to-day is doing well, though suffering considerably.
THE new orchestra of Eckhardt & Breinig did themselves great credit last evening, and quieted the apprehension of many amusement patrons, in a large measure. Their overture was excellent, and was highly appreciated by the audience. It gratifies us to be able to make this announcement, and we hope to be able to make as favorable a report of this new organization each day.
No contracts have been let for work on tho Cincinnati Railroad.—Journal. The above item is about on a par with the enterprise of the morning imbecile. The heaviest work on the line was let on Saturday last to Mr. F. D. Malloy, and he Is already on the ground at work, and we are informed by the engineer that with anything of a fair winter, the road will be completed and running to Eel River, a distance of twenty-flve miles, by May 1st, 1872.

The GAZETTE is no more the home Democratio paper of Dan. Voorhees than the Indianapolis Journal is the home paper of the State Printer.
Does the brilliant and vivacious Journal editor understand that?

A DENIAL.
A Card from'4'Obstinate Jnror." Paul McCoskey, who signs himself as "the Obstinate Juror," is out in a card this morning in which he most emphati cally denies the charge of "agreeing a verdict of acquittal in the Tapscott case because he "wanted to go home," which he says
Is a falsehood and a slander, and the person who told it knew to be such when he uttered it. It is only a repetition of the lies and slander, which I received from a portion of those men who composed that jury. I believed from the evidence in that case that Samuel Tapscott killed A1 exander Thompson, and at least was guilty of manslaughter. I believed then, and believe it now, and I consented to his acquittal, not because I wanted to go home as the would-be slanderer states but because of the ill-treatment I received from a portion of the jurors.
We publish the above because we giv place to the charge of his "agreeing" be cause he wanted to go home. However, we will add that such an excuse is but poor one at least, and as Mr. McCoskey' name did not appear in connection with the item he had better have remained "passive." If his fellow jurors did not treat him as a gentleman and a sworn juror, and did that which influenced his decision against the dictation of his judgment of justice and bis conscience as a juror as above, it was his duty to have notified the Sheriff of the fact.
Mr.
McCoskey was sworn to the
discharge of one of the most solemn duties to which a man can be called, that of passing judgment on the merits of a case when a fellow man is charged with the killing of another. It was due the State and the accused alike that no in fluence of whatsoever character be brought to bear on him as a juror to in fluence his decision when under the solemnities of his oath, that justice be done the State and the accused.
DRAMATIC AND LITERARY.
"Still Waters Run Deep," at the Opera House this evening. Daniel L. Payne, of the Evening News, Indianapolis, is said to be the most accomplished literary journalist in the State.
Second appearance of the popular Rankin Comedy Company at the grand Opera House, this city, this evening 'Still Waters Run Deep" will be played. Second engagement.
It is reported that Hon. Max. A. Hoffman, ex-Secretary of State, will assume the editorial management of a German paper at Fort Wayne. Success to the new journalist.
The Rankin company will play that Terrible Temptation, as dramaticised, at the grand Opera House on next Saturday evening, on which occasion there will be a large attendance, we feel assured, for it is new and novel.
A public library in this city is a need long and severely felt, and we would suggest that it would be to the credit of the city was that want supplied by the founding of a library or public reading room, where the young of both sexes can secure the better class of books by paying a reasonable mempership fee.
The sale of the New York illustrated weekly papers, the Police Gazette the Varieties the Day's Doings and Wild Oats, and Woodhull's biography, by Theodore Tilton, have all been prohibited sale and circulation in Germany, which speaks in the highest terms of praise of the good morals of that people.
The Madison Free Press, which was burned out by the fire, has reappeared as a daily, much reduced in size but undismayed in spirit. It covers about as many square inches per week as formerly, and promises an enlargement, if its patrons do their part. Major John D. Simpson, editor and proprietor, is a gentleman of fine literary attainment, and high social qualities. May success ever attend him.'
W. H. Leake, at the Academy of Music next Friday evening, will reply to the unreasonable strictures of Rev. Dr. Andrus upon theaters and their patrons. It might benefit the reverend gentlemen if he could be in attendence and thus enlighten himself upon a point concerning which his present information is decidedly defective. It is a bold attempt on his part to seek to ostracise not only the actors in, but the patrons of the legitimate drama, and he will probably be surprised to learn that many, very many, are men and .women as pure hearted and having as high regard for Christianity as any of those with whom he is daily brought in contact.—Indianapolis Sentinel.
RAILROAD ITEMS.
5
Terre Haute has several of the best railroads iu the West. Two new railroads in this city may be considered as a certainty.
The Vandalia and I. &
St.
L. are nearly
always on time when not delayed by their connections. Under the new time-table six trains leave the Union depot at Indianapolis, each day at eight o'clock P. M., Sundays excepted.
The couhty of Decatur has subscribed $125,000 to the Southwestern & Evansville road, running from Bellefontaine, Ohio, to Evansville, this State. This in addition to a liberal subscription to the Terre Haute & Cincinnati Railroad.
Two elegant drawiug room cars have been placed on the Vandalia route, to run between Cincinnati and St. Louis. The cars surpass in finish and beauty any that have yet come from the hands of Pullman, which is only another to the many attractions of this elegant and popular line of travel.
I'll 'IP" Jr€ 1
A Greensburg correspondent of the Indianapolis Journal says: "This point bids fair to be a railroad center for this part of the State. We feel sure that the road from Terre Haute to Cincinnati, of which Gen. Pleasanton is President, will pass through here when built, and we art confident it will be built. The townships in this county through which it passes have taken stock, and no small amount jsswsr.
of individual subscription will be made Gen. James B. Foley is the director for this county."
The committees appointed at the rail road meeting last Thursday to circulate petitions in this, LaFayette and Marion townships, returned the petitions on Friday morning with the requisite number of signatures thereto. The Commissioners convened during the day, and passed an order directing the polls to be opened in the townships named on the 26th of next month, to allow the qualified voters thereof to say whether or not they are willing to be taxed to aid in the construe tion of the Cincinnati ft Terre Haute Rail road.—Owen County Journal.
From the above the readers of the GAZETTE can see that the Terre Haute & Cincinnati Railroad is not only calling the attention of the people of Terre Haute to it, but also those of other points along the proposed line. There are strong feelings in its favor everywhere along the line, and that it will be built there can be no doubt. A portion of the grading is now under contract, and work will commence at once.

ONE of the Chinese employed at the laundry .at Belville, N. J., died a few days ago, and was buried with the queer national ceremonies of his people. The body was dressed in its best—a suit of nankin—and was placed in.an elegant walnut coffiin, which was immediately sealed. Then a long procession of the Chinese—150 in number followed the wagon which carried the body to the grave. Two' graves were dug, one a small one, by the side of the larger one, destined for the coffin, in which were placed a tea-pot, a rice-pan, chop-sticks, and the clothing of the deceased. On top of this medley was placed a large earthen vessel, containing a cooked chicken, some rice and salted fish. All this was then -covered up with dirt. After that, a basket containing the clothes that had been worn by the deceased on the day of his death were placed on the grave that held the coffin, and was set on fire aud burnt up with its contents. A number of fire-crackers were then exploded on the grave each Chinaman then came forward, stood over the grave and performed three salaams, every mourner present was presented with a small bouquet of flowers, aad Tien Sing was left to his repose.

All hands dead except the captaiuand one passenger. Crane." The following night he became delirious and leaped overboard. Young Crane was a son of Judge Crane, formerely a wellknown resident of LaFayette. The Crane family now reside in California.
THE best American calicoes cost £l and 21J cents a yard. The famous Engglish "Hoyle's prints," which are far superior to our best, could be sold here, duty free, for 13J to 14 cents a yard. Thus, every purchaser of a yard of good calico pays 7£ cents extra price in the way of bonus to the American manufacturer, and. as the women of the country wear about 300,000,000 yards every year, it follows that they are taxed annually $22,500,000 for calicoes alone, not a cent of which, scarcely, goes to the support of the Government So much for Protection.

It is hoped the change which has taken place is an indication that the Prince has now experienced a- turn of fever, and is now progressing towards convalescence. The favorable report of the Prince's condition has done much to relieve the anxiety and dissipate the gloom which has fallen over the household in consequence ofhis illness.
Her Majesty, who throughout has been most untiring in attentions to the sufferer and has undergone great fatigue in consequence, but has been much comforted and encouraged by this hopeful intelligence.

BROOKLYN, November 28.—The school excitement which has been agitating the residents of Hunter's Point for some time past, was brought to a climax yesterday by the expulsion of 40 scholars, all Roman Catholics, by Mr.Selburg, principal of the school. This action was taken with the view of forestalling any further attempt at disturbance by their objecting to the reading of the Bible in school. Mr. Selburg also acted under authority received directly from the Commissioners of School.

Our Danville Letter. DANVILLE, ILLS., NOV. 25,1871.
Editor of Terre Haute Gazette: After two weeks absence in our native State, and a pleasant sojourn at home, and among the scenes of earlier days, when business cares were unknown, and father "paid for all," we again return to our duties and take upon ourselves the responsibilities that others have placed in our hands. Many interesting railroad articles are to be found in the last numbers of the GAZETTE, and especially so to the people of the beautiful and thriving city of Terre Haute. We returned by way of the Evansville, Terre Haute & Chicago Railroad, which has just been completed. Nearly the whole line is iu fine order, and groups of men were to be seen along the line putting up telegraph poles aud ballasting the Danville end of the road.
Reaching Danville we found the track all laid on the Chicago Danville & Vin cennes road. One passenger train each way passes over this road from here to Chicago. Very soon regular trains will run from Chicago via. Danville and Terre Haute to Evansville, New Orleans, and other points in the South. Then we will no longer be compelled to go from Chicago by way of the dearest of all roads, the Illinois Central, via. Cairo and on South. The Indianapolis, Bloomington & Western Railway, is doing a fine business. It is a fine passenger route to the West and Northwest, being chosen by the Government as the quickest and shortest route for the Pacific mail. Superintendent Oliver has just purchased l- ^V ma/)
eighteen new engines and three hundred freight cars. That speaks well for its management and business prospects. With six railroads and more building, our gas works in operation, manufac' tories building, we feel that we are quite a business city.
We see by Thursday'S -G-AZETTE, that our genial friend, J06 B. Cbeadle, attorney, has taken up his abode with the good people of the "shaded" city. We hope you will treat him kindly. Joe is a good fellow, and worthy of confidence and trust. We knW him in times of war, and knew him to be courageous there, and we have seen him at the bar, and know he will never "gin up" his case as long as a ray of hope remains.
We understand a gentleman from this city has gone to bring hither one of Terre Haute's fairest daughters, to be his now and forever. All right, E. E., so you leave ours.
