YE GODS, WHAT AN INSULT.—The St. Louis Times has the aflfrontery editorially to say that the shockheaded Wabash howler is not the originator of the "Voorhees' suggestions," which the agent of the Associated Press of this city thoughtlessly gave to the people of this continent. The Times says:

The suggestion made by Mr. Voorhees was put forward in the Times by Mr. H. Clay Dean a number of months ago, and indorsed by us at-the time.

THANKSGIVING ATTHETERRE HAUTE HOUSE.—Yesterday being Thanksgiving day, Mr. Manager Huston ordered that the festal board of the old reliable Terre Haute House be spread with all the delicacies of the season in the most sumptuous manner, entrusting the minor dutJes of the preparation and dispensation to the head waiter Mike Murphy, who as a caterer, proved himself at success. A magnificent collation was spread in the dining-room of that popular house at one o'clock P. M., there being not an article advertised on the well-dis-played bill of fare, whi.ch could not be had on call. This was enjoyed by an immense throng as usual at this institute of internal repairs. All was done to make the occasion pass off pleasantly that attention from the management and assistants could contribute to that end.

AcconniNa to the Courier, a Lafayette firm has been all summer building a pair of shoes for a Terre Haute belle. They were launched last week.—Indianapolis Evening Journal.

The shoes were manufactured for the "big-footed LaFayette girl," the corner of the Lahr House being used as a last. After they were completed, however, she could not wear them, as her corns were too much compressed thereby. The father of the damsel, a gentleman of means at one time, having already fomid it necessary to take the bankrupt law by reason of the amout of wealth yearly expended on the shoeing of this daughter, was unable to pay the manufacturer aforesaid, and he having used up his entire stock of leather oti hand, determined that he would send them to this city, which ho did, launching them in the Wabash at that point, though they did not reach here until the recent rise in the river. The shoes are now used as a round-house of the E.T. H. & C. R. R. For further particulars inquire of Asst. Supt. Nesbitt.

THE Hoa MARKET.—Theslaughtering season in this city seems about opening in earnest. McBiruey & Co., of Cincinnati, having leased the Early packing establishment, have commenced the slaughter of the pbrcines at the rate of six hundred per day, having some twenty-three hundred now in pens ready for their executioners.

The management of the Reiman establishment have not yet determined when they will commence.

Prices are very uusteady at $3.50, and a shade upward for gross net, quoted at [email protected] in this city.

From the Sullivan Democrat we learn that "pork has been $3.5# during the week with but little disposition to sell #n the part of farmers, who believe there will yet be a material advance. Yesterday (Wednesday) it advanced to $3.75, $8.80(«M. Not many hogs coming in,"

From the same source we read that Mr. Johu Giles, a well-known dealer in blooded stock in Sullivan county, sold to Samuel W. McDonald of this city, eight flue pigs for $100.

PERSONAL.—We regret to learn that Mr. Ray G. Jencks is seriously ill of billious fever at his room in the Terre Haute House.

Messrs. Hugh Burney aud H. M. Johnston, of the firm of McBurney & Co., of Cincinnati, are in the city stopping at the Terre Haute House.

J. M. Fisher, of Paris, Illinois, a hea^y hog buyer of that plaee is in the city. He first purchased that 1,080 pound hog and re-sold it to McBurney & Co.

Mr. Nelson Chandler, a pork dealer of Baltimore, is also in the city Btopping at the Haute House.

Rev. Alfred E. Welles, formerly assistant rector of St. Stephens' Church, this city, has been here several days,the guest of John S. Beach, Esq. He leaves this afternoon en route West.

The great and good Hon. B. W. Hanna aud D. W. Voorhees returned thanks at home yesterday. The former attended church iu the morniug.

L. B. MARTIN, of the Savings Bank, is now casting his calculating optics over the neat pages of his systematically kept interest books, for the month.

"RAISING CANE."

Hoosier statesman stealing the thunder was a very pleasant one throughout, and of Clay Dean' Ye Gods! what an one long to be remembered by all who insult-to which of the worthies, we participated or were present. know not.

Citizens

Tiro Weil-Known Prominent SeTerely Caned. Two well-known and influential members of our community were made the victims of costly canings yesterday, for which they returned their heart-felt "thanks." The names of the individuals and the circumstances of the case are something like this:

THE FIRST VICTIM

called to account, was D. W. Minsball, Esq., of the well-known banking house of McKeen & Minshall. It appears that his relationship with the assistants of that institution have not been a business one merelv, but also one of the warmest friendship, which culminated yesterday in the gentlemanly assistants presenting Mr. Minshall with a magnificent and costly cane, purchased in New York for the occasion, on which was the following inscription: "D. W. Minshall, from the employes of the Bank, Nov. 30,1871." Mr. Ira Delano, Esq., by request, made the presentation speech, which he did in a very happy style. Mr. Minshall responded in a feeling and appropriate Jiftle speech of thanks.

At the close of this pleasant ceremony (not indicated by the headline at the head of this article, however) a select party, including the gentlemen named above, repaired to the spacious dining room of the Minshall mansion where thanks were returned for a most sumptious feast spread by the amiable and accomplished lady of the fortunate recepient of the caning. The guests, it is said, made out a very successful case of assault and battery on a stuffed turkey, .jfluail on toast, oysters and. in short all

THE SECOND VICTIM

was that of that whole souled liberal gentleman, Col. Thomas Dowling,

who

received a call from Capt. O'Mara of the Prairie City Guards, at the unholy hour of eleven last night, and who by the gallant Captain was ruthlessy taken from his "little bed" to his own beautiful and artistic hall, on the stage of which his eagle eyes observed the noble guards drawn up in battle array. The Colonel was marched along the line in the presence of beauty aud chivalry arrayed iu the gorgeous attire of the ball-room, until he was met from the opposite side by Martin M. Hollinger, Esq., President of the organization, who said

COL. DOWLING: In behalf of the Prairie City Guards, I present you with this cane, as a token of our esteem aud gratitude for your many acta of kinkness and liberality shown our organization as an emblem of support, it will serve to remind you in after years that you extended a liberal hand to aid and assist us, and that this assistance has been appreciated. Accept of this memento and may you long live, is the wish emenating from the heart of every member of the Prairie City Guards.

At the close of this sp|^ch he presented the gallant Colonel with a splendid and valuable gold-headed cane, one of Tillottson's best, beariug this inscription: "By Prairie City Guards to Thomas Dowling, Nov. 30, 1870."

The recipient of this kindly mark of appreciation called out very appropriate extemporaneous remarks from that happy recipient, which we give as near verbatim as we can, having just got into the hall and like the Colonel anticpiated nothing of the kind

MB. PRESIDENT I was awakend from a sound slumber about a half hour ago and informed by your gallant Captain that I was wanted at the hall. I responded knowing that something would be done whether it was for my benefit or not I did not know. It is often asserted that one is taken by surprise. Certainly if auy one ever was taken by surprise it was I when awakened from my sleep and asked to come to this hall. I acknowledge I never heard of this affair until then.

If I have engaged in aidiug your organization in any acts of benevolence towards others, I have been amply repaid as a citizen of Terre Haute. I can but express my heartfelt and sincere satisfaction at receiving a token of this kind from an organization which I esteem so highly, [applause], and which has so strong a claim upon the gratitude of cfur city. Be assured more over that now and in the future as heretofore, it shall be my pleasure to aid you iu all your undertakings. Having said thus much, I bid you an affectionate good night, may you, each and every one, prosper. Great appiause and cheers.]

It is but proper to state in this connection that the superinducing cause of this act, on the part of the Guards was not only Col. Dowling's liberality in donating the free use of his magnificent and elegant hall to the use of the company on the occasion of their Chicago Relief Fair but for his untiring aud flatteringly successful efforts to secure the success of the concert and ball which followed it, without whose timely and influential assistance certainly would have resulted in a failure

DRAMATIC, AND MUSICAL.

More minstrelsy. Nilsson January 22. Matinee at the OperaHouse to-morrow. "Little Emily" the play.

Rip Van Winkle at the Opera House this evening. Fifth appearance of the justly popular Rankin Comedy Company at the grand Opera House this evening.

The Worrell Sisters—all three—are reported in Savannah. Wonder if the gentle and affectionate sisters have settled their little family jealousies aud concluded to live in harmony and unity.

The much read and talked of "Terrible Temptation,".as dramaticized by an ambitious dramatic writer, will be played at the grand Opera House to-morrow evening by the Rankin Comedy Company. It is much of the same style of piece as East Lynne, and was applauded by the fashionables of St. Louis, when played there by the Rankin company.

C. A. Jones, of Boston, agent of the Morris Bros. Minstrels, was in the city yesterday, making arrangements for the appearance of that company of burnt cork artists at the Opera House, in this city, on the 7th of Dec. The company is well recommended by the press wherever it has appeared.

Tuesday evening, of next week, the Congregational Church Concert will be repeated at the urgent request of many of our most appreciative and influential citizens. Prices of admission will be made popular, and as it will be an entertainment of rare merit we anticipate for the accomplished choir a full and appreciative house, and for the audience a most enjoyable evening. Miss Kellogg and Mrs, Carrington will both sing.

The Rankin Comedy Company played the farces of "Milky White" and "La Petite Mere" evening before last very satisfactorily to a very fineaudience, and played "Home" to a splendid matinee yesterday' afternoon, affording general satisfaction. Last night the beautiful sentimental play of "Enoch Arden" was charmingly rendered by them to the best dramatic audience of the season. The playing could not well have been improved upon, while the audience was very enthusiastic and at times much effected, apparently. For notice of entertainment see fourth page.

THE architects have hehf a convention in Boston, and, among papers read by by the members we specially notice one by Mr. Russell Sturgiss, jr., on the use of terre cotta in building. This material is burntclay mixed with pulverized glass earth-ware, or fossil bones. It was used by the Egyptians, and afterward by the Greeks and Romans, and later still by the architects of the Middle Ages. The Nineveh statues and tables of terre cotta, with engraving^, remain to-day as sharp as ever. Lately the composition has come into general use for fine buildings in London. Mr. Sturgis claimed for it a great deal of strength and durability for a solid block, one foot square, will sustain a weight of 885 tuns without cracking, and its cost is less than that of of Btone.
