Providing ourself with a peck of peanuts, two reams of paper, and a gross of pencils, we sallied torth to the hall, and took our seat at one of the tabbies on the stage, there patiently waited for the appearance of the great and good. Promptly, five miuutes behind time, he and Rev. Samuel J. May leisurely sauntered across the stage arm in arm to the front of the platform. Their white locks presented one of the most patriarchal spectacles we ever witnessed. Mr. May, in a short paragraph of three columns, introduced Mr. Davis, Who talked until the audience went home or to sleep,including ourself— after having exhaused our supply of peanuts, pencils,: paper and patience. When the great orator had retired we repaired to the Journal office, where we found the printers going home to breakfast. —. ..

THE CITY TS. BAGDAD.
Gat Slinging and Tongue Lashing.
Emphatic Denial of Serions Charges.
City Editor Evening Gazette: A few days ago there appeared in your paper a small article telling how the ladies of Bagdad spent their time in the pleasant occupation of throwing dishwater, dead cats, &c., iu each otners yards, and their indulging in "language highly characteristic of the morality of said suburb." -Now, Mr. Editor, your reporter surely must have been partaking freely of the contents of that cup that cheers but too often perverts our vision, and does not help the organs of hearing to any great extent. If he was not in such a state, why in the name of comqion sense, was he traversing the alleys of-Bagdad for such he must have been doing, or he would not have witnessed those little neighborly transactions over the rear fences of our humble domicils. I assure you we have plenty of swine here to use our slops. As for cat slinging (I like to havn said cat skinning), we leave that notable animal for popular politicians to fling at each other. It seems to me that the 'ancient name of our little place, ought to be a sufficient protection from all such misrepresentation of the morals of its inhabitants. And are we not beautifully situated? Bounded on the east by Mont Rose, aud on the west by Strawberry Hill. What could more please a poets ear, than those appal lations? And here we have all the iron works, arid are expectinu more when that great Southwestern Railroad comes along, for won't it have to traverse the whole length of Bagdad ere it enters your city? And here we are taking your Daily

notiee. Now, Mr. Editor, I know you feel like backing out of what you said, for don't you know it is getting to be very fashionable for professional men to select brides from a foreign city? And who knows how many of your very near friends have serious intentions towards the city of Bagdad. Such being the case, I should judge that yott were in no enviable position, proclaiming to the world the capacity our ladies have for using their tongues, which being so "highly characteristic of their morals." Now, suppose, for instance, some of our neighboring cities would judge the morals of Terre Haute by the conduct of some of the lowest, and most unworthy of its inhabitants. Take it home, Mr. Editor, and have a care hereafter how you pass judgment upon the city of Bagdad', by the actions of an unworthy few who are among us. Now, as I have not written on both sides pf the pages, I feel assured you will allow me a hearing, and give me a chance to clear the community of the bad impression you have of it.

We have some further particulars of the death of Alexander Hodge, Jjy drowning in Eel river near Stilesville, on the night of Thursday, the 11th inst. He had left home a few days previous, to search for some horses, and reached his father's house on his way back, on the night in question. Here he ate supper, and was invited to stay all night, but declined and started out about 11 o'clock for his home. Upon reaching Eel river it is supposed that in searching for adrift on which to cross that stream, he fell from a high bank, breaking through the ice, yet working his way across through water over ten feet deep. He"endeavored to ascend the opposite bank, but missed the way, and fell back into the stream, where his body was found submerged, his head and shoulders projecting above the ice. Some boys hunting near by discovered his body on Saturday evening. His wife and child lived but a half mile distant firm where he met his death. Hodge was about 35 years.of age. —Oreen6a»tU Press. I

Three or-the County Commissioners acting with Stone refused to accept the bond of the new treasurer, who, therefore, has not been able to take his office, but by this action is put in possession of the records.

The assumed discussion made amnesty a great civil, political and moral necessity at' the end of the war, and in accordance with that principle the question of general amnesty had been long ago settled. The question now before the Senate was whether it would pass a bill granting amnesty, not quite universal, butsoneariy as to put an end to special legislation on the subject. He was convinced that it would be wise to p&ss this bill. He remarked that Mr. Sumner's amendment was uncoustitutioual and ought to be rejected.

An Intelligent Elephant,
"In July, 1810, the largest, elephant ever seen in England was advertised as 'just arrived.' Henry Harris, the manager of Covent Garden Theater, purchased it for the sum of nine hundred guineas. Mr. Henry Johnsou was to ride it and Miss Packer, the Columbine, was to play up to it. Young happened to be one moruing at the box office, adjoining the theater, when his ears were assailed by a-strange and unusual%iproar within the walls. Ou asking one of the carpenters the cause of it he was told "it was something going wrong with the elephant, he could not exactly tell what."
It had been arranged that Mrs. Henry Johnston, seated in a howdah on the elephant's back, should pass over a bridge, in the center of a numerous group of followers, and it was thought expedient that the unwieldy monster's tractability should be tested. On step ping up to the bridge, which was slight and temporary, the sagacious brute drew back his forefeet and refused to budge. It is well known as a fact iu natural history that the elephant, awara of its unusual bulk, will never trust its weight ou any object which is unequal to its support. The stage-manager seeing how resolutely, the animal resisted every effort made to compel, or induce it to go over the bridge in question, proposed that they should stay proceedings till next day, when he might be in better mood. It was during the repetition of the experiment that my father, having heard the extraordinary sounds, determined to go upon the stage and see if he could ascertain the cause df them. The first sight that met his eyes kindled his indignation. There stood the huge animal with down-cast eyes aud flapping ears, meekly submitting to blow after blow from a sharp iron goad, which his keeper was driving ferociously into the fleshy part ol his neck at the root of the ear. The floor on which he stood was converted into a pool of blood. One of the proprietors, impatient at what he regarded as senseless obstinacy, kept urging the driver to proceed to still severer extremities, then Charles Young, who was a great lover of animals, expostulated with him, went up to the poor, patient sufferer* and patted and caressed him and when the driver was about to wield his instrument with even more vigor, he caught him by the wrist as in vice, and stayed his hand
further violence. While au angry altercation was going on between Young and the man of color who was his driver. Capt. Hay, of the 'Ashel,'who had brought over Chuny' in his ship, aud petted him greatly on the voyage,came in and begged to know what was. the matter. Before a word of explanation could be given, the much "wronged creature. spoke for himself for as soon as lie perceived tjie entrance of his patron he waddled up to him, and with a look of gentle appeal caught hold of his hand with his proboscis, plunged it into the bleeding wound, and then thrust it before his eyes. The gesture seemed to say as plainly as if it had been enforced by speech:

It was under a far better impulse that he ran out into the street, purchased a few apples at a stall, and offered them to him. 'Chuny' eyed him askance, took them, threw them between his feet, and when he had crushed them to pulp, spurned them from him. Young,' who had gone iuto Covent Garden on the same errand as the gentleman who had preceded him, shortly after re-entered, and also held out to him some fruits—when to the astonishment of the bystanders the elephant ate every morsel and aft&r, twined his trunk with studied gentleness, around Young's waist marking by his action that though he had resented a wrong, he did not forget a kindness.''

The true story from an eye-witness,, who thinks Miss Nilsson was righteously indignant, is that she arrived at the appointed time and found the Grand Duke and his suite being attended to, while she, who came by appointment, was kept waiting. As her time was precious, and the Duke's party, who had been lunching and felt in a particularly jolly humor, staid iu the operating room longer than there was any necessity for, the patience of the prima donna gaveout.—New York Letter.

For the Renovation of the Hair! Hie Great Desideratum of the Age! A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is sOon restored to its original color and the gloss ana freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, th6Ugh not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands ftrophied or decayed. -But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it1 will keep it clean and vigorous. It3 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., ...
