We never doubted but that the boys would get along finely but how about the citizens All our solicitude was for them.
CORRECT.—The JYincennes Gazette says: The Terre Haute GAZETTE now receives full telegraphic reports by the new line connecting at that city.
The Gazette is correct, aud so are our reports. THE Iudianapolis Sentinel says that "a Terre Haute beau asked to be released from an engagement to take a lady friend sleigh-riding because he had no clean shirt. Were he a man of tact, he would have made some sort of a shift to fulfill his promise."

Fox LEGGETT," of New York, and Mrs. will give a dramatic and humorous readiug in this city at no distant day, provided the people respond to the call of tickets enough to insure the financial success of the enterprise. They will read under the auspices of the Terre Haute Lecture Bureau. Though Mr. Leggett signs his name "J. Fox Leggett," evidently laboring under an attack of the "initial mania" which prevails in the East among the egotistic, we are assured that he does not have to part his hair in the middle in order to be balanced.
BROWNSTOWN, this State, is not only noted as being the birth-placejof our distinguished fellow-citizen, President Tuell, of the T. H. & S. W. R. R., but for its plucky girls, judging from the manner in which Miss Maggie Cunningham took advantage of leap year. She summoned her friends to her wedding with a young gentlemen who she had fastened her affections upon. The party proceeded to his residence, where the gentle youth was found in bed. As soon as he recognized the situation he gathered his raiment about him and fled silently but rapidly. The wedding didn't take place, and the rest of the girls are discouraged at the initial leap year party.
"OSWEGO," the Terre Haute correspondent of the Sullivan Union, says among many other things, that "on New Year's day many of our prominent citizens kept open houses, and received their friends and callers in the most elegant style and among the grandest on the occasion was that of Mrs. Col. William E. McLean, at her residence, on South Fifth street, assisted by that most accomplished lady, Mrs. Sant. C. Davis." It is but reasonable to suppose that the Honorable Oswego appreciated the good things there served. It is said that he really does appreciate an aristocratic free lunch as well as any man in the city, not excepting the Hon. B. W. Hanna or the Prima Donna of the forenoon Repeater.
Temperance.
The next annual session of the Indiana State Temperance Alliauce will be held in LaFayette, in Corinthian Hall, February 6th, 7th, and 8th, 1872, commencing at 2 o'clok, P. M. Tuesday the 6th.
All churches, Sunday Schools, Alliances and Temperanee organizations are requested to give notice of the time and place of the meeting, and to send two or more delegates to represent them. Free entertainment while at the convention, and half fare going and coming.
The papers of the State are requested to copy. R. T. BROWN, Pres't. C. MA.RTINDA.LE. Corresponding Sec'y.

Southwestern Railroad.
A public meeting having been called by a number of citizens for the purpose of consulting in reference to the proposed subscription by Harrison township for the Southwestern Railroad, and Saturday, the 13th of January, having been named as the day, and the Court House as the place of meeting, I am authorized by the Board of Directors of the Terre Haute fc Southwestern Railroad to say that they will be happy to meet the tax-payers of the township at 7 P. M., of the day named, for consultation and interchange of views. They choose this hour because the Court House will be occupied by the Common Pleas Court until a late hour in the afternoon, and becauso it will suit better the convenience of the people.
J. McUiiKoon, Secretary.
The above is furnished us for publication, and we advise all our tax-paying citizens to be in attendanc in accordance with the call, as matters of vital interest and importancf will be discussed then and there.

A sad case of forgetfulness comes from the little town of Bourbon, in this State, to the effect that two couple desired to be married at one time and gave the minister license accordingly but the minister supposed that one couple was merely "standing up" with the other, and performed the ceremony but for one. The discovery of the horrible mistake was not made by the minister, until he was making his report, when he found two licenses, instead of one and the unmarried couple were far away on their wedding tour. Whether this ministerial blunder interfered with the enjoymentof the thought-they-were-married couple, has not yet come to„ the public ear.

My father's wife, i. e. my step-daaghter, had a son also he was, of course, nay brother, and in the meantime my grandchild, for he was the sou of my daughter. My wife was my mother's mother. I was a wife's husband and grandchild at the same time. And as the husband of a person's grandmother is his grandfather, I was my own grandfather.

MADRID, Jan. 12.—The appointment of Concha as Captain General of Cuba, created serious dissensions among the Spanish Cabinet. It is rumored that unless the appointment is speedily ratified and confirmed by the Ministry, Admiral Topete will resign.
NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—A Herald's special from Madrid, says that General Sherman and Lieutenant Graut left Madrid Tuesday night for Nice, to join the Wabash. During their tour in Spain they visited Cadiz, Gibraltar, Malaga, Seville, Xerz, Graneda, Cordova, Madrid and Elesories. While in Madrid Sherman was visited by many public dignitaries.
A Herald's special from St. Petersburg says the note ot Chancellor Prince Gortschakoff to United States Minister Curtin regarding Catacazy, has been published in his message official, which is supposed to have been done by the Russian Government to openly express their resentment at the treatment and peremptory dismissal of Catacazy by President Grant and Secretary Fish.
Gortschakoff's note holds that the' acquiescence by the Russian Government in the report of the U. S. Government for a recall of Catacazy should have ended the matter, but it complains that in a subsequent correspondence on the part of Secretary Fish, there was neither sufficient attention nor proper respect shown to the Russian Embassador. The tone of the whole is one of studied insolence against President Grant and Secretary Fish.
NEW YORK, January 12.—Ex-Comp-treller Connolly is secluding himself in Jersey City.
Comptroller Green is preparing to issue, under the new law, levenue bonds for the purpose of raising money to pay off the bonds of the city and county falling due this month. The amount of bonds and interest is about $669,000.

BROOKLYN, Jan. 12.—James Hunter, a liquor dealer, shot his mistress early this morning. The wound is fatal.
COLUMBUS, OHIO, January 11.—The question of the validity of the election of United States Senator came up in the Senate this morning. On motion of Senator Patrick, to correct the journal so as to show that the vote was for Senator in Congress was announced by the joint assembly of the two houses before the voting was accomplished, and while the members were on the floor, and in the act of changing their votes, and while they were so delayed in making such changes, at the request of the Lieutenant Governor, to enable the clerks, without confusion, to make the changes as they were announced.
After a hot discussion, lasting until uoon, the resolution was adopted by a vote of 17 to 13, the Republicans Casement and Howard, voting with the Democrats. This virtually declares the election to be a fraud, and is considered a great triumph by the anti-Sherman-ites. In the House similar motions were made, and rule4 out of order.
SPRINGFIELD, III., Jan. 12.—An attempt has just been made to ascertain the cost of the present Assembly up to the end of this week, and the figures are alarming. They seem to make it advisable for the Legislature to go to work, and cease 60 much useless talk, and pass the laws which are necessary for the State. Such as revenue fees and salaries, the eminent domain, Congressional and legislative apportionment and three or four others, and then go home.
The figures are as follows: The pay of officers and employees amouts to
TERRE HAUTE, IND.: FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 12, 1872,
$365,000. Committee room and incidental expenses $50,000. Paper, printing, &c., $60,000. Total, $485,000.
It is evident that before the end of the session it will amount to far over half a million dollars. These figures show that the cost to the Stae of each member per day is $11, or $6 over and above his wages. There are so many engrossing clerks and so few bills have been engrossed that the cost of engrossing each bill that has been in their hands is $80. It was not worth over a dollar and a half to do it, and the $78.50 was utterly wasted. The cost to th6 State of each law it has enacted is frightful. The bill to repeal the act vacating the town plat of Cummington, in Macoupin county, cost the State $5,000.
CHICAGO, Januarary 12.—The meeting of the friends of the insurance companies having offices in this city was held yesterday. Twenty-five companies were represented. Strong remarks were made advocating the necessity of stringent fire limit ordinances, and that proposed by the Common Council was advocated. It was stated that two of the largest companies operating in Chicago, the International of New York, and the Phoenix of Hartford, had withdrawn their business on account of the number of frame buildings being erected here, and especially in the North Division, where there was almost a total suspension of business iu respect to insurance

[Associated Press Report.]
CONGRESSIONAL.
SENATE.
A large number of petitions for the reduction of the Tariff and the repeal of the protective duties on salty iron and coal were read. A bill from the House reported from the Committee on Appropriations, appropriating $27,845 as expenses for the Ku Klux Committee.
The bill passed. The joint resolution of Mr. Sumner proposing a Constitutional amendment? of a limited service of the President to one term, was taken up.
Mr. Carpenter introduced a bill, which was referred, authorizing the West Wisconsin Railroad Company to construct and maintain a bridge across Lake St. Croix, at Hudson, Wisconsin.
Mr. Conkling address the Senate arguing against any such amendment. Mr. Conkling continued to read his speech from printed slips, occupying considerable time. He claimed that the country is on the eve of civil service reform, and that the pending proposition is simply an expedient to effect the reelection of Grant. Mr. Sumner said in introducing this proposition he discharged a conscientious duty. He took counsel from experience, following the testimony of the best- minds of our re^ public. Who, in our history, he asked, has arrayed himself on the side which the Senator from New York represents to-day? What eminent statesman ha« placed his name in this question against the names of Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, Benjamin Franklin, who is the statesman, I know him not, do you know him sir? The Senator from New York opposes these illustrous characters, but in his opposition he mistakes the whole foundation of the argument, the object of which is to guard against temptation so that the President shall not be placed in a position where he may be tempted iu the use of his powers.
Mr. Sumuer here remarked that in the preamble of the resolution there is a summary of the ground on which he placed the One-Term principle. He here read the preamble heretofore published, and also quoted from a speech made by Mr. Wade, of Ohio, in December 1866, in support of the One-Term principle. Iu conclusion, without going into an argument, but merely suggesting its great importance, I would simply say that all parties for several years seem to have been of the opinion that the great defect in our system is that which this proposition aimed to remedy. Such has been the condition of parties generally in this Government that it has been an almost hopeless task to engraft the measure
upou the Constitution but now there is an opportunity. I believe every munis sensible that the correction of this evil ought to be promptly applied.
Mr. Wilson moved that the further consideration of the joint resolution be postponed.
After a brief executive session, the Senate adjourned till Monday. HOUSE.
Mr. Edwards, of Arkansas, said that if he had been present when the report reflecting on him and Senator Clayton was made, he should have denounced the testimony taken as untrue, and have moved a further investigation of the commiltee. He is content now to leave the matter with the Election Committee
A bill from the Commerce Committee, authorizing the construction of a ship canal from Lake Michigan to the Mississippi river was reported and recommitted
Mr. Butler, from the Law Committee, reported a bill increasing the limitation of the minimum amount of suits which may be appealed to the Supreme Court from $2,000 to$5,000, and other rules rela tive to appeals from Territorial courts and criminal proceedings, were ordered printed and recommitted.
Mr. Dawes asked leave to offer a resolution for the appointment of a select committee to inquire into the condition of affairs in Louisiana.
Mr. Kerr objected. Adjourned. From the New York Sun A. (xiii's Throat Fatally Cut by the Core of an Apple.
Miaa Mary Ellen Fox, the young lady whose throat was cut by the core of an apple in the Normal School a few days ago, is dying. She was eating the apple, and while in the act of swallowing a portion of the core, it cut the lining of her throat and several of the arteries like a knife. Her classmates were astonished to see her fall over on the floor and vomit large quantities of blood. She was carried to the Police Station, but little could be done for her beyond keeping her perfectly quiet. Her mother, who bad been summoned was not allowed to move her until next merning for fear of fatal coosequences. The poor woman sat in the station-house watching her daughter all night. Next day she took her home, where she has lain ever since, slowly wasting away. It is impossible for her to swallow, anything whatever, and her stomach has become so contracted that nothing can enter it. She is so weak from loss of blood aud starvation that the physicians in attendance refuse to perform any operation on her, or even to insert a silver feeding-tube below the wound, as has been successfully done iu other instauces where the mouth
or
throat have been injured. They
say that she

igassiz Discovers aNew Fish. Professor Agassiz has addressed a letter from St. Thomas to Professor Benjamin Pierce, in relation to the gulf jiveed and other curious topics. This floating weed, he thinks, is derive I from plants torn from rocks. One of the most interesting discoveries thus far made in the expedition is "a nest built by a fish floatig on the broad ocean with its live freight." This nest was made of a mass of 8ea-*veeds, the central part of which was closely bound together in the form of a ball, with several loose branches extending in various directions by which the whole was kept floating. The nest was full of eggs, which were scattered throughout its mass and not placed together in a cavity of the whole structure. The learned Professor soon discovered that the ntfst was built by a fish, aud in a day or two he made a careful examination of the embryos. The little fishes had fins like hands, and says the Professor, "With these limbs these fishes have long been known to attach themselves to sea-weed and rather to walk than to swim in their natural element."
IN the article which the gentle Olive wrote to the New York Tribune she lays this down as her future programme:
Sufficient for me are the old-fashioned themes of a noble life, a good mantslove, frolics with the children, how to make home happy, the flowers on virtue's win-dow-sill, the follies of Miss Japonica, the vapidities of Mr. Fitz Noodle, the funniments of Miss Jerusha, the honest little comedies of daily life, and the sweet household pixies. With these themes I am happy and at home, and with them lam content.

HAIR VIGOR.
IYER'S
HAIR TIGOK,
For the Renovation of the Hair! The Great Desideratum of the Age!
A dressing which is at once agreeable, healttty, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss and ('reshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands trophied or decayed. But such as remain can "be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling oft and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
