Additional Local News.

IF there were no other objections against the postal telegraph scheme, the fact that it would add largely to official patronage, would bo sufficient to condemn it. There are already more officers and more oflicoseekers than the public good demands. JJut we object decidedly to the government doing any business can be done by private enterprise. We don't want "Un cle Sam" to engage in the telegraph, the dairy, popcorn, beer, dry goods, or any other business than such as he now has on hand.—Express, 8r.

Of course, you do not want the Government to take charge of the telegraph lines of the country, for that would "bust up" the monopoly of the Associated Press dispatches, and to take that away, what would your old "rattle-trap" amount to I

The M. S. M. Works.

President Andrews, of the Manhattan Sewing Machine Company, is in the city, and had a consultation with some of our leading business men, at the Terre Haute House, this forenoon, in relation to the establishment of the works of the comi* pany.

No actiou was taken, the President intimating a proposition that the ••city subscribe$150,000 to the capital stock of thecompauy, in the event of their establishing the works here, which our businessmen very reasonably concluded would uot be entertained by the city.

Other suggestions were made, but as there were no propositions advanced' by the company which would for a moment be entertained by the city, we refrain from comment at present, awaiting a proposition reasonable enough to furnish .grounds of discussion.

Journal,

by inuendo, accuses the editor of the Evening Journal of an infamous crime. The editor of the Terre Haute Journal is a liar and a coward. He is a liar because his accusation is not true, and ho is a coward for insinuating what ho lucks the courage to directly charge.—Indianapolis livening Journal.

Blood, Iugo, blood! Will the Journal man brook that? We surmise not, and that the "Tall Sycamore of the Wabash" will soon make a visit to the Capital in behalf of his editorial Bourbon friend, to arrange an early meeting with the awful paragraphist of the Evening Journal, that wounded honor may be healed with navy revolvers The Evening Journal man certainly has not taken into consideration the probably fatal consequences of calling a brave Terre Haute editor a coward and liar. Jeems, up and at 'im!

ASPIRES TO BE KNOWN ABROAD.— Evansville is determined to keep even with Terre Haute if possible. Hearing that this city enjoyed the presence of a real live practicing female tonsurial artiste, the Journal of that city makes the following report:

The Directors of the Cincinnati, Richmond & Fort Wayne Railroad Company yesterday filed in the office of the Secretary of State a profile of the line of their road extending from Richmond to Fort Wayne.

Wm. Cummings, formerly a brakesmac on the E. & C. R. R., has received the appointment of baggage master, vice Henry Quackenbush, resigned. Henry made a good baggage master and we trust that Mr. Cummings will.

W. B. Tuell, has been elected President of the proposed Terre & New Albany Railroad.—N. A. Ledger.

Not so, Mr. Ledger. Mr, Tuell is the President of the "Terre Haute & Southwestern Railroad," which, instead of running towards New Albany, runs exactly in the opposite direction, We can, however, furnish a first-rate President for the T. H. & N. A. Railroad, if it is desired.

A meeting of the creditors of the I. C., & L. R. R. Co., was held at Lawrenceburg, yesterday, in Register Daniel S. Major's office, for the purpose of electing an assignee to dispose of the road at sale. The meeting was largely attended, and Messrs. Morris and Ingalls, the present receivers were chosen. It is hoped by those who hold the bonds of this road that the management will do something to discharge that liability. As it now stand?, and has for sometime, the road is a fctupenduous confidence game.

The Evansville Journal says: "Mr. Ingle, President of the Evansville & G'rawfordsville Railroad, is now in Terre Haute, trying to perfect arrangements by which through trains maybe run from Evansville to Chicago. At present there are three lines,requiring two changes, one at Terre Haute and another at Danville, taking about fourteen hours to go to Chicago. Threesleeping coaches have already been purchased for the road, from which we infer that Mr. Ingle is likely to be successful in his endeavors. We hope lie will he, anyhow."

The articles of the "Chicago, Continental & Baltimore Railroad Company" have been filed. This proposed line is to pass through the counties of Lake, Porter, Laporte, Stark, Marshall, Fulton, Wabash, Kosciusko, Wells and Adams, distance of 165 miles, in this State. The capital stock is to be $2,000,000, and the Board of Directors for the ensuing year cousists of the following gentlemen David Studebaker John Studebaker, Samuel M. Daily, John Iioclie, George B. Bippers, John Kenonce, Isaac Hayner, Vernon Gould, Gustavus E Darr, William Emendoff, Thomas A. E. Campbell, A. A. Ttarr and J. G. E. Earl.—

FASHION AND GOSSIP.

Ladies who drink brandy at parties generally cultivate a good imitation of a sheep-skin nose.

Several more weddings are on the tapis and may occur most any time. WTho is the prominent Terre Haute attorney who contemplates committing matrimony at Indianapolis?

Many of the New York ladies paid $5,000 for a dress worthy of wearing at the Duke's ball.

The latest style of ladies' hats resemble an inverted flower bed trampled on by an elephant.

Miss Nellie Murphy, daughter of Collector Murphy, has the honor of being the first young lady to dance with the Duke Alexis on American soil.

An old lady thinks the Bonds must be a family of strong religious instincts, because she hears of many of them being converted..

A man in Indianapolis attempted to bridle a woman's tongue by placing his thumb in her mouth. He has but one thumb now, while she has an awful bad taste in her mouth.

Mrs. F. G. Perry, of Norwich, Connecticut, wears a patent wax nose, a glass eye, a wig and a lull set of false teeth. And yet Mrs. Perry does not claim to be a self-made woman.

When a Mormon wife is deprived by age of her charms, she immediately becomes heart-broken and declares that polygamy is the devil's own institution.

Paris has learned nothing, forgotten nothing, and she sends out to-day styles of attire as shameless in their immodesty, vanity, prodigality and defiance of true (eminiue grace as anything which scandalized the last years of the Empire. She avenges herself on the modern German woman with a bool of fashions which is calculated to ruin all moderate revenues, to put chastity and sobriety to scorn, and to drive even Queens into courts of law. Those progidious trains, those senseless appendages, that huge shapeless mass of dead hair, which no longer so much as affects to be natural the countless flounces and furbelows, scrolls and ruches which are the negation and death of drapery the hat and bonnets which have ceasea to be njore than a ludicrous caprice the pital-up passe menterie and costly inartistic trimmings—all these, with high heels, breeding corns and bunions black lean under the eyes, causing early blindness and a tout ensemble which would make modest women blush, if poudrette pertes allowed it—are what we get from Paris, where so little apparently has survived except the curse which every honest heart prayed to see die.—London Telegraph.

WATER-PROOF BOOTS SOLES.—A Southern exchange has the following on this subject: "If liot tar is applied to bootsoles, it will make them water-proof. Let it be as hot as swab, and drying in the fire. The operation may be repeated two or three times during the winter, if necessary. It makes the surface of the leather quite hard, so that it wears longer, as well as keeps the water out. It is a good plan to provide boots for winter during the dimmer, and prepare the soles by taring, as they will become, before they are wanted to wear, almost as firm as horn, and wear twice as long as those unprepared."

LONDON, December 9.—Morning.—The bulletins from Sandringham this morning, annouce the Prince's condition somewhat more favorable. He slept a little during the night, and toward morn ing obtained a slight degree of refresh ments from the prostration of last night, which taxed his utmost remaining strength. The sufferer remains quiet this morning, and the increased general condition is considered more favorable.

LONDON, Dec. 9.—The Prince passed a favorable morning. The noon bulletin of Dr. Jenner pronounces his condition tranquil, febrile paroxysm subsiding, and the heat and dangerous flush of fever have somewhat assuaged.

The patient is more(composed, but suffering utter weakness from exhaustion, which causes trouble and grave apprehensions to his physicians. Should he succeed in overcoming tills excessive exhaustion and debility, which fortunately was not increased last night, there may yet be room to hope for his ultimate recovery.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 9.—Several influential Pennsylvania Congressmen state that Speaker Blaine is the choice of their State for the Vice Presidency.

NEW YORK Dec. 9.—Gen. Cluseret, the famous Communist leader, arrived here Wednesday in the steamship Russia, under the assumed name of Vincent. He made his escape from France through Spain and Portugal to England, and took a steamer for New York at Liverpool. He remained in the city but a short time, stopping at the Prescott House, and left yesterday morning in a steamer for Mexico, where he will take command of the Juarez forces against Diaz. Several prominent Internationals called upon him while here.

The canvass of election returns, completed at Albany, show the result on State ticket as follows: Secretary of State, Scribner, 837,119 Wilier, 368,212. Comptroller, Hopkins, 387,703 Nichols, 367,127. Treasurer, Raines, 188,360 Bristol, 366,576. Canal Commissioner, Bark ley, 387,926 Chapman, S66,599. Attorney General, Barlow, 387,072 Champlain, 367,724. Inspector of State Prisons, Kirkpatrick, 387,359 McNeil, 360,650. State Engineer, Taylor, 387,284 Richmond, 357,615. The Republican Majority on the State ticket is 18,907. The Republican vote in this city exceeds the highest vote ever cast by them by more than 11,000,

The New York Tribune has the following special correspondence from Wash ington, dated December 9th: No reply has been received to a letter of the 45 Republican Senators to Secretary Fish, entreating him to remain in the Cabinet. The Senators who did not sign this document, speak of it as undignified and un precedented. They say that as the Senators are judges of the fitness of appointees to public offices, it is peculiarly improper for them to express their opinions in this way on the propriety of rumored changes to request an officer to remain in his place. It is in their opinion that it is only a little less objectionble than to advise him to resign.

One Senator, when asked to sign the letter, said the President had not asked his advice on any subject of late, and he did not propose to volunteer it upon the question of whom he had better have in his Cabinet.

Delegate Hooper, of Utah, will leave Washington to-morrow evening for home, and be absent about three weeks. While at Salt Lake City he hopes to arrange a plan for the admission of Utah, which will settle the question of polygamy and be satisfactory to the Mormons and to Congress. His plan is to have Utah admitted as a State during the coming winter, on the condition that no nore polygamous marriages should be contracted, but that no families already thus formed shall be disturbed.

Hooper has presented his plan to many of the leading Seuators and Representatives, and all admit that it is, all things considered, the most practicable that has yet been proposed. Hooper feels Banguine of being able to induce his people to agree to it. ./•_•

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.—Continuation of examination of the libel suit of Miss Mansfield against J. Fisk, Jr., was postponed to-day, until Saturday next, the counsel for the lady being absent at Albany iu the Connelly case.

The furneral services of Wm. M. Foster, the actor, were held to-day at St. Augustine Chapel, and were attended by a numbers of member of the theatrical profession. The body was interred in Evergreen Cemetery.

GALENA, III., Dec. 9.—A special to the Chicago Mail says another strange occurrence has taken place here. The following are the facts:

A few days ago a young man abont 18 yean of age, apparently intelligent,

-f

W'V,

mam

l? if/Vfi

•."I?

came to this city and engaged lodgings with a private family, and gave his name as Chas. L. Reynolds. The family with whom he stopped regarded his movements as rather suspicious, and notified him that they could keep him no longer, and that he must find another place to stop. The young man called on a prominent citizen of Galena and proceeded to make the startling confession that he was a murderer, and that he had murdered a policeman in Boston. He begged of the gentlemen to let him hav $25 with which he could get to some more secluded place, and out of danger of arrest.

Failing to get the loan of the money, he went to the county jail and requested to be locked up for the night, saying he had no money and would rathet sleep there than freeze on the streets. The Sheriff asked him if he had committed any crime for which he should be put iu jail. He said he had committed none iu Gelena, but if the Sheriff would lock him up for the night, he would confess all next morning. The Sheriff took him to a hotel and paid for his lodging and supper. In the meantime, another officer had been informed of the fellow's statement in relation to the murder in Boston, and naturally deemed it his duty to arrest him. He went to Reynold's room about 11 o'clock and took him into custody.

At first Reynold stated himself to be innocent, butafter the Constable told him what the charges were, he covered his face with his hands and wept bitterly, saying: "That villian has informed on me, and I'll have revenge." He was held till the next morning, and examined before the Justice, who committed him to jail on the charge of murder. He made a full statement to the Constable how, on the night of the last day of May or the first of June last, he had forgotten which, he had the altercation with some men iu a saloon near the Tremont House, Boston. A policeman named Dan. Shea, alias Murdock, attempted to arrest him, but one of his comrades told him not to be arrested, whereat he seized a broad knife which lay on the counter and pushed the policeman from him, at the sa^ne time stabbing him in the right side. An hour or two later the policeman died. The murderer fled to a neighboring town, disguised himself with false whiskers. Three days later he returned to Boston, when relatives advised him to leave at once, and avoid arrest.

He went to Pittsburg and engaged in teaching school, thence to Chicago. After being in the latter place a few weeks, he went to Freeport, Illinois, leaving there for Warren a few weeks ago, he again started, and stopped at Galena last week.

Next morning after the arrest a bunch of letters were fouud on the streets, which Reynolds had taken from his pocket while being taken to jail, and thrown down and torn in two. Some of the letters were addressed to the prisoner by his brother, who he affirms lives iu Boston, and working in an organ factory. The police found that the letters tended to confirm the guilt of tho prisoner, and telegraphed to the Chief of Police of Boston, and received an answer that no such murder had been committed there.

The Galena Gazette says in reference to this: In our experience we have never before been called upon to record the case of a man attempting to prove himself guilty of crime for the purpose of getting into jail. The possibility is that the prisoner beiag out of means, flxed upon this story with a hope of procuring a free ride to Boston. The letters which have been found on the street were probably a part of the plan, having been written by the prisoner himself, for the purpose of confirming his story about the murder. Reynolds is still in jail, but unless some further developments are made he will probably be discharged in a few days.

GALENA, III., December 9.—On the morning of the 7th inst., a man named Miller, living near Smith's Ferry in Iowa, started for Galena with a load of dressed hogs. He was crossing the Mississippi river on the ice at Smith's Ferry, and when about thirty yards from the shore, the team broke through the ice. The wagon and load of pork went to the bottom and the horses were taken out dead, but the pork and wagon was not re* covered. Mr. Miller and a young man who was riding with him narrowly escaped with their lives. One of them fell into the river, but was taken out by some men who were crossing at the same time.

SPRINGFIELD, III., Dec. 9.— The House Insurance Committee met yesterday evening and decided to report adversely on the Senate bill making the reports of the Auditor relative to Insurance Companies prima facie evidence in courts. They also decided to fix the paid up capital of city Insurance Companies at $200,000 instead of $150,000 as the bill originally provided, and to prohibit the carrying on of business by Mutual Fire and Marine Insurance Companies.

An effort will be made in the Committee to abolish the provision requiring foreign Companies to make deposits, and also to do away with the whole system of the State supervision.

Tbe House passed, by a decided vote, Mr. Phelp's bill, giving the General Government the power to purchase and condemn lands, and there is no reason why it should not pass the Senate next week.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 9.—The third days session of the National Board of Trade was held in this city to-day. The Commissioner appointed to confer with the delegates from the Dominion Board of Trade presented a report memoralizing Congress for the appointment of a Commission to negotiate for the basis of a treaty for reciprocal trade relations with Canada. The committee submitted a series of resolutions looking to the uniform import of internal revenue laws and tbe con* struction of an international railroad between the two countries.

MANUFACTURING NOTES.

Terre Haute needs a paper mill. What has become of that plow manufacuriutg enterprise

Will the officials of the Manhattan Sewing Machine establishment submit a proposition to this city?

More manufactories could be estab-

lished here to the advantage of the citv

and to the financial advancement of

those who establish the same. The blast furnace is now being operated in a most successful manner, giving employment to a large number of hands. From tweuty to twenty-five tuns of most excellent iron is manufactured here each day.

If the Manhattan Sewing Machine Works were establised here almost an army of workmen would be employed the yearly salaries of whom would amount to over a quarter of a million dollars. There are also maujT other advantages worthy of taking into consideration in favor of the establishment of the mammoth works of this company here.

The Terre Haute Nail Works are doing an immense business, and giving employment to a great many laborers, yet their facilities for manufacturing are not equal to the constantly increasing demand made on the company for the products of their establishment. Under this state of facts, the works are to be enlarged 50 per cent, next spring.

ALL the different establishments ot the city are now in a verj' flourishing condition, including woolen factories, car building and repairing shops, glass works, etc. However we will make one exception, and that is of the gas works which have furnished the most villainous gas that ever entered the nostrils of man since the world began, of late. Why is this thus?

DRAMATIC AND OSHERWISE.

Minstrel night. We are to have no dramatic or operatic entertainments through the holidays except "home talent."

Admirers have given Janauschek one hundred thousand dollars worth of rich and massive jewelry.

Mary Jane Holmes has agreed to turn out $30,000 worth of novel for a Philadelphia weekly.

Nilsson and her talented support are still delighting the New Yorkers at the Academy of Music, large audiences of the elite of the city greeting her every appearance. Some people like to be humbugged anyhow.

Several weeks since we learned from an exchange that the head of the minstrel profession, Billy Manning, was dying of consumption. This, we are pleased to learn by the Cincinnati Oaze'.te, is uot true. Billy nas organized a first-class new company, and will soon make his appearance at Cincinnati. Success attend him.

THE Female College at Greencastle cleared §41.85 from the Kellogg concert hold there recently. We wish the musical people of Terre Haute would give us a concort.—Brazil Miner.

The musical people have the ability and doubtless have the inclination to favor our neighbor with a concert of rare merit. For particulars we refer the Brazilians to Messrs. Kilbourne and Psige, this city.

Many of our citizens have expressed a very strong desire to have the ParepaRosa Combination, now at Cincinnati, give one of their excellent entertainments inthiseity. The management of this excellent organization intended favoring Terre Haute in case they made an ap^ pearance at Indianapolis. Failing to secure a hall at that place, they could not afford to come here, for the receipts of one evening. Hence the disappointment of the music-loving citizens of Terre Haiite.

The Terre Haute Dramatic Club is now rehearsing "Henry Dunbar," in which they propose to make their debut at the Opera House Christmas night. That will be the only dramatic entertainment we will have during the holidays, yet reported, and we presume there will be many in attendance. After the opening entertainment of the company at the Opera House, they will give en tertainments in neighboring cities. ^II

THE NEW TORE TIMES.

Daily, Weekly and Semi-Weekly.

This journal is now thoroughly identified with the greatest political necessity of the hour —uncompromising warfare against all forms of corruption, whether in national or local government. For years past the TIMES has been exposing the demoralizing schemes of self-in-terested politicians, and its recent warfare upon the Tammany Democrats has been received with universal approval. It has adhered to the pledge given in its original prospectus, more than twenty years ago, that the public should be truly represented, and their interests faithfully guarded through its columns. Its record has been pure and honorable, and the highest aim of its proprietors is to render it more and more worthy of its past history, and of the confidence which the public repose in it. Two out of three of the original proprietors still direct its policy, and guide it on all public questions. They propose that the TIMES shall continue to keep clear of all narrow and unworthy influences and cliques, and aim to represent the great body of the public, as distinguished from personal factions. It occupies a perfectly independent position, and is free to speak the truth on all sublects and about all men. Its greatly increased circulation throughout the country adds to its power and influence.'It will continue to be a faithful exponent of Republican principles, and advocate with untiring energy every cause which tends to farther the welfare of the people.

The utmost care will be devoted to gathering political news from special sources during the Presidential canvass. This department of the paper will be unusually full and trustworthy. Renewed enterprise will be exhibited in every department of the paper, and large space will be devoted to reports of speeches made during elections, or on other important political occasions.

A very full summary of news, and many general articles of great interest, are published in the Semi-Weekly editions and in the Weekly edition there is an unabridged report of the proceedings ol the Farmers' Club, an excellent summary of political information, and a great variety of matter sulta le for family reading.

The NEW YORK TIMES Is pre-eminently a family paper, all objectionable advertisements being rigidly excluded and it has a constantly increasing circulation among the most respectable classes of the cominunUy.

Our readers, and the public generally, are so well acquainted with the tone-and quality oi THE CHICAGO 'JR1BUNE, that wo need not enlarge upon that subject. Near the close of the 25th year of our existence as a public journal, we liad the misfortune, in common with a large mnjosity of the business community of Chicago, to be burned out, losing thereby the most commodious newspaper building in the United States, and being deprived, temporarily, of the use of our extensive printing machinery. We have commenced rebuilding our ruined edifice on a more enduring plan than belore, and we have effected arrangements for tho use of machinery which practically gives us the same facilities that we possessed before tne flre. Upon occupation of our new building and machinery THE TRIBUNE will be issued as an octavo, and contain eight pages of reading matter.

THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE will be published regularly as heretofore eacri Wednesday upon the following
