TEMPERANCE LECTURK at the Concrregational Church on Sunday evening, 10th inst., at the usual hour, by Rev. E. F. Howe. Good Templars will meet at their Lodge at 6 o'clock, for the purpose of attending the lecture in a body. Subject: "Saloons and who are Responsible for Them." By special request.
THE men who were at the Opera House last night nnd didn't know how to behave themselves when in good society, had better have remained in the saloons, where they left their good man nor.-, if they ever had any. Another evidence that a man cannot be judged by the clothes he wear?.
U. R. JKFFERS & Co., have just received a lull stock of elegant goods in the line of holiday notions, which they propose to dispose of at holiday prices to retail dealers, far and near. This firm is one of the "old reliables" of Terre ITaute, do an immense business and merit of their patrons all the patronage they can bestow.
PERSONAL.—J. D. Herkimer and lady, of Mattoon, were in the city yesterday, the guests of Alexander McGregor, E-q.
Hon. B. W. Hanna is at home to-day. Mr. Tra Jackson, of Mattoon, is in the city, and internally repaired himself as the guest of young Mr. Heinl, late of the lirm of Montgomery & Heinl, nurserymen, Mattoon, now a resident of this city as a cigar dealer. .Samuel Early, Eeq., formerly of Terre Haute, now of Baltimore, is in the city to-day.
THE CHARITY FAIR.—Monday night the Charity Fair will be opened under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid Society at Dowling Hall by Santa Clause, the patron saint of all dutiful children, all of whom should attend without fail.
Tuesday evening Miss Fannie J. Kellogg, Mrs! C. D. Farrington and Mrs. George Farrington will sing at the same hall, in behalf of the good cause to which the above noble organization devote so much of their time and energies? The talent of the above ladies is to wellknown and appreciated to make it at all necessary for us to advise the readers •of the GAZETTE to attend Tuesday evening and avail themselves of the golden opportunity to h«ar some excellent music. In addition to this attraction, Tuesday evening will be charades and other entertainments. Tickets for sale at Cox's and Bartlett's book stores.
ARTS AND ARTISTS.
Minstrels again to-night. TheWyndham Comedy Company are at Chicago-
Japanese Tommy would make a good "short-stop" for abase ball club. Indianapolis is to be delighted with McAvoys Hibernicon. Fortunate Indianapolis!
Prof. Cain has been "raising cane" in the lecture fields of old Sullivan. Prof. Rod. Sipp, a pianist as wellknown in Europe as Wehli is, is in Indianapolis, stopping at the Shermau House. He is said to be one of the most accomplished pianists in Germany.
IT is reported that Nilsson has refused to allow Kellogg to sing in opera with her. We doubt Miss Niluson has wellgrounded fears that Miss K, would merit and secure the most praise. 1-IKNKI DKAYTON is written as nn indifferent imitator of Forrest, and his play of "Niagara" is voted au absurdity.—Indian' apolis Journal.
Drayton was here with the English Opera Combination last spring, and in his part was truly a success. Since that time he has suffered a severe paralytic stroke at Roohester, N. Y., as many of our readers know, which probably accounts for his failure iu the above role.
W. B. TITKLL, has been elected President of the proposed Terre «fe New Albany Railroad.—N. A. Ledger.
Not so, Mr. Ledger. Mr. Tuell is the President of the "Terre Haute & Southeastern Railroad," which, instead of running towards New Albauy, runs exactly in the opposite direction, We can, however, furnish atirst-rate President for the T. H. & N. A. Railroad, if it is desired.
This evening a compauy of eighteen bona fide darkies, formerly Southern plantation slaves, will make their first appearauce at the Opera House in this city, as minstrels. They have not been better advertised because the agent of the couipany was sick, as we stated yesterday in the GAZETTE. After having witnessed the antics and listened to the sweet instrumental music of the Morris Minstrels last evening, many will, no doubt, go this eveuing to compare negro with white artists.
Indianapolis now rivals Jhe cities of LaFayette and Terre Haute in the matter ol vocal editors. Mr. Frank N. Scott, the new editor of the Mirror, cau sing all around Sep. Vater, or Perry Westfall either.—Indianapolis Journal.'

FASHION* AM) GOSSIP
"Artistic wooden jewelry, is in vogue, lady, "You
Said a conceited young men area covet-us set." A shot from Cupid's bow is like tenement house stairs—it's an arrow flight.
The Boston lady with 75 inches of tress is pronounced the greatest hairess in America.
Womau's Rights: Putting on her chignon, arranging her curls, buttoning her gaiters, and adjusting her Grecian bend.
Fan, commenting on the proverb, "Peace hath her victories," says: "Just so more men fall in lo%Te than war."
Harry Hoy, well known as the handsome man of Xew York, was lately married to Miss Van Epps, a neice of Robert C. Schenck.
A bride received, among other wedding presents recently, two sewing machines, three pianos, and eight family Bibles, large size.
Dorabella, who reads the papers, thinks it nothing wonderful that the Ring should be in arrears. She says she's had rings in 'er ears ever since she was seven years old.
Parton is ungracious enough to remark that many American ladies, were they sentenced to be hanged to-morrow, would ask as the first question "Have I a hanging dress?"
It is the proper thing, though some young ladies don't seem to know it, that their invitations should always be sent out in the name of tiie chief lady of the family, the "lady of the house."
Why will our girls insist on making "objects" of themselves with the immense bustles now in fashion? They look as if they were meant to be sat on, and it's about time somebody did "sit on" them and mash one absurd abomination into nothingness.
Young married laities are all the fash*n this winter. They talk as a rule much better than "demoiselles," and for a further advantage they don't expect you to flirt with them. Most girls insist upon this underany circumstances, and a forced flirtation is very tiresome.
O.NCK more we must raise our protest against wine at mixed parties of ladies and gentlemen.—Chicago Mail.
Yes, and Chicago is not the only city where this pernicious custom prevails. Terre Haute is afflicted with the same demoralizing evil, though not in so large a degree. We will have to wait no longer than the beginning of the New Year to see young men intoxicated by wine handed them by the fair hands of their lady acquaintances, who should use their gentle iufluence iu the other direction. It is very inconsistent in ladies to hand the wine cup to young men and give them a start on the road to a drunkard's grave, then forevfer desert them when fairly started on the broad and downward road. We have heard it intimated that there are young ladies in the city who have indulged iu wine to the degree of intoxication. Yet, we do dislike vervmuch to believe this, though it did come to us on good authority. We hope every young lady in this city, in her own conscience, can contradict such a report.
RAILROAD-PERSONAL.
All "externally" quiet in railroad circles at Indianapolis yesterday. J. 13. Brown, Passenger Agent of the Pan-Handle, Indianapolis, was happier last eveuing than he was when he assailed that vicious dog with an infant mitraileuse last summer. It is an infant this time, but not a mitraileuse.
The survey of the Louisville, New Albany & St. Louis Railroad has been completed through Oakland, and the indications are that that town will have two railroads within one year.
Ohio township along the lines of the proposed Toledo & St. Louis Railroad are subscribing to stock very liberally, and the indications are that the road will eventually be built, when the compauy determine the locality through which to pass where it will pay best.
The Iuilianapolis Sentinte says Bayless Gold.sberry was yesterday promoted to passenger conductor on the popular Indianapolis St. Louis road. For some time past he has been acting as passenger agent of the Baltimore Ohio road in this city. The new appointment Is one that will meet with general favor.
TIIK Vandalia is building a double track for a distance of three miles from the city or St. Louis, to facilitate the supplying of coal fortho furnaces in that city.—Indianapolis Journal.
The Vandalia is doiug a heavy business along its entire liue and the time may yet come in that not far distant future when the entire road will be doubletracked.
From the New York Tribune.
A Law-Abitliug Governor.
Gov. Palmer of Illinois is a lawyer, a soldier, aud a politician. He is an excellent lawyer he was a soldier of such merit that he rose from the ranks to the command of an army and a department'. But it is the custom with western papers to say that he is a bad politician. If this is true, it is the fault of politics, and uot his. It means that he never wiil sigu a bill with a job in, by meaus of which influential party friends are to profit. He never uses his appointing power for his own advantage. He will not swerve one hair's breadth from what he holds to be the law to save his own popularity or his party's majority. He is so good a lawyer that he rarely makes a mistake in the law. He is so honest a man that he never goes false to his convictions. For these sufficient reasons the "practical" politicians agree that his public career is ended with his present term. If the "practical" men are to continue to have it their own way in the future, as they have too much in *.he past, this may be true.
Thfe moral of the Alexis demonstration. "Bear abd forbear."

WASHINGTON, December 8.—The first Deputy Commissioner of Internal Revenue receives his appointment at the hands of the President, and the third deputy is appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury. There are already a large number of applications for both positions.
Marden and Johnston's defalcation reaches $G5,000. Marden is in jail. His hearing takes place next Tuesday. Johnston has not yet been committed. The investigation continue, and other arrests are probable.
NEW Y*OKK, December 8.—It is reported that anew daily paper of Democratic principles will be started in this city about New Years.

Lambert, formerly assist ant with Pomeroy in the Democrat.
NEWYOKK, Dec. 8.---The following is the special correspondence to the Tri bune from Washington, December7: The Appropriation Committee of the House held its first meeting to-day, which organized and agreed to begin work on Monday. The members of the Committee say they have a hard task before them, the success of a Committee which, under the lead of Mr. Dawes, reduced the.appropriations to such low figures, that a large deficiency of bills had to be passed to keep the wheels of the Government in motion yet the public expects the present Committee will still further cut down the Government expenses.
The Committee appear to be firmly resolved to make all possible retrenchments, and they hope to be able to find and stop some of the leaks in the Treasury that their predecessors did not discover.
The Ways and Means Committee have not taken action upon the business re ferred to it.
Some of the Democrats of the House say they believe there is a project in contemplation for the increase of the army. They think the faint prospect of a rupture with Spain will be made an excuse for authorizing the President to add at least twenty thousand men to the military force

NEWARK, X. J. Dec. 8.—George Botts, the murderer of Pet Halstead, is preparing a statemeut of circumstances connected with the murder, to be published after his death.

NEW YORK, Decembers.—The following is a special correspondence to the Times from Washington, December 7: Mr. Sumuer gave notice to-day that on Monday next he should move for the abolition of the office of Commissioner of Internal Revenue. This proposition causes a good deal of comr&ent, and its bearings are not at all understood. The movement promises to meet with such success as various other wild proposals emanating from the same source have constantly had.
The importance of the office is steadily diminishing with the abolition ol the Internal Revenue laws, but the Bureau will be necessary as long as any internal taxes are levied, and must have a head.
Mr. Douglass' nomination was sent in to-day, and will undoubtedly be confirmed by the Senate.

Gov. Washburne a farewell dinner when he leaves the House to assume the duties of his new position. A meeting was held to-day in reference to the project.
XEW YORK,Decembers.—The Tribune opposes the postal telegraph billon the ground that is a job adding a useless number of hangers on to patronage. The present Government management is not as efficient as it would be in private hands. It claims that it would make the President master of the press, ena bling him, if so disposed, to give the news of the day such color as he chose, and an opportunity to paralize public opinion at a vital moment, would lead to tampering with the news for partisan purposes, thus endangering our liberties.
MEMPHIS, December 8.—The Helena, Arkansas Clarion, referring to therecent statement of the public debt of Arkansas, telegraphed from Little Rock by the Western Associated Press, says editorially, that the editor of the Gazette at Little Rock and the agent of the Associated Press are the same person, aud that the same statements are telegraphed to Wall street, and his telegrams aud newspaper reports are taken as confirmatory of each other, and are damaging to the credit of the State to such an extent that the Arkansas bonds are scarcely quoted at all, or at such a discount as to be ruinous to all railroad enterprises, to say notbingofits effect on the levee bonds.
