Additional Local News.

TiiK unpleasantness occasioned by the alleged disturbance at the colored Baptist Church the other evening, for which three or four parties were fined, has in no wi.se abated. Sundry brethren allege that sundry sisters and brethren testified to that which was not true.

THE Indianapolis Journal says Tt is understood that Nilsson will reappear in this cit-v in March, in "Mignon" and "La Traviata," on her return trip to New Orleans, but we undertake to say that the "off-nights" will not be patronized very freely. No more Capoul, as thou Invest me, Max.

Not. delighted after all.

PHRSONAT...—Dr. W. M. Stephenson and others went to the classic region of Middleton to-day, to attend the railroad election. .Air. Fred Cook has returned from Terre Haute, where he purchased four hundred tons, making thirty carloads, of Wabash river ice. From present appearances Evansville will be kept cool next summer.—Evansville Journal.

Rev. Mr. Hitchens, of Wheeling, W. V., is in the city.

THE Indianapolis Mirror is correct,

we

think, when it "speaks out in meeting" against the practice of celebratingIlia anniversary of the birth of the infidel Tom. Paine. We think it far better to celebrate the anniversary of his death, as the latter was a much more important event than the former, so far as the best interests of the world is concerned. Dr. Bland, of Indianapolis, could better improve his time by celebrating the birth of his wild Alderny bull.

WHAT MEANS THIS?—From the Indianapolis Evening Journal of Saturday, we learn that"the case of C. W. Woolley vs. Dauiel W. Voorhees will be tried at the next term of the United States Circuit Court. The amount is not large, but there will probably be some racy developments. Woolley is better known as 'Buckeye.' Wonder what is meant by the above ominous notice. Has Daniel been indulging in cat skinning with Woolley and refused to divide?

Go AND Six NO MORE.—1The school children of Indiana will no boubt be delighted to observe the following, which we clip from the Indianapolis Journal, of this morning

Hon. John C, Shoemaker yesterday united by letter with the Meridian Street Methodist Episcopal Church.

Of course, the venerable official "Perry county Peach Peddler" has repented of kitten skinning, in which he deprived the school children of the State of their justdues, and may refund the amount. If not, we hope he will "go and sin no more."

Shylock" at Indianapolis.

Of Mrs. Macready, in her wonderful feminine impersonations of "Shylock" in "The Merchant of Venice," who appears at Dowling Hall to-night—and who appeared at the Academj' at Indianapolis Saturday evening, the Journal of that city says that in many respects the entertainment was the most unique nnd interesting ever given in that theater. The attendance was a surprise to everybody, the Academy being filled almost to overflowing although half a house" was the utmost expectation of the initiated. In like manner the performative disappointed everybody, being cither better or worse—according to tastes—than each had looked for.

Mrs. Macready's "Shylock" is undoubtedly a creation of much power apart from her "transformation," which is really the most wonderful feature or the whole performance. It bears the marks of careful study and a thorough conception of the character. Its defects are all physical, the least among tbem being a lack of force, aud the greatest a lack of voice. Tne latter enforces a deliberate speech, which in time becomes monotonous, not to mention the effect of retarding the progress of the play, but, for all this, every word and syllable is (ii.-tinctly aud beautifully enunciated, and the "action suited to the word."

The "Antonio" of Mr. Alfred Knight was very well read, but indifferently acted. Mr. J. H. Taylor's "Gratiano" scarcely accounted for the capitals in which his name was set down in the bills. Mr. Joseph Sefton's "Lancelot Gobbo" was, next to "Shylock," the finished personation of the play. As Shakespeare's women are always "inferior creations," it i.3scarcely fair to expect much of those who personate them, nevertheless Mrs, Sefton made the most of "Portia," Miss Reeves looked charming as "Jessica," nnd Anna Sutton, (Wood) as "Nerissa," was the cynosure of all eyes, because she had introduced the ill-fated Fisk to

Mansfield. The costumes and appointments of the play are very fine, and every detail is carefully considered. The troupe goes to Terre Haute to-dajr, and will appear at Dowling Hall this evening, .. u-i

When the road is completed from that point to this city, which will be next summer, there will then be an outlet for the Bessemer steel that will, no doubt, then and there be manufactured by Eastern capitalists, who will make investments in blast furnaces and rolling mills at that point, under the liberal terms offered by the company as advertised in the New York Tribune. In this vicinity are situated rich beds of block coal and Eel river, supplying water in great abundance, the manufacture of Bessemer steel can be prosecuted with great success when the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad is completed to this city, in order that iron ore can be shipped thereto.

Death of Hon. Norman Eddy, Secretary of State. Yesterday the painful news went forth

fhat

Col. "Eddy had died suddenly of heart disease, at his residence, corner of West and New York streets, in this city, and though it seemed hard to realize the fact, it was only too true. His death was sudden, indeed, but. not entirely unexpected by his family and intimate friends, who have known for several years that the dread angel might claim nim at almost any moment in the way and manner of his death yesterday.

Colonel Eddy had been complaining some day3 of his old Iuka wound, and also of the trouble about his heart, and had not visited his office since last Thursday, but had been going about the house much as usual uutil yesterday morning about half-past 8 o'clock, when he fell to the floor in the act of helping himself to some medicine, in his own room. Mrs. E. hastened to his side but found him insensible and speechless. The household was speedily called in, the stricken man was lifted to his couch, and physicians were summoned iu exceeding haste, but all their offices were of no avail. Within the hour that he was stricken the good man's spirit passed peacefully away amid the most touching demonstrations of affection by his family and friends, who are pluuged iu the deepest affliction by his death.

The usual tokens of respect will be observed on this occasiou, and the State offices will remain closed until Wednesday. This afternoon at 2 o'clock, there will be a meeting of the State officers to arrange for the funeral, which will take placa at South Bend, probably on Wednesday.—Indianapolis Journal. .*•

THE vacancy in the office of Secretary of State, created by the death of Hon. Norman Eddy, will be filled by appointment from Gov. Baker. The law thus provides for such a contingency.—Indianapolis Journal,

OBITUARY.

Colonel Norman Eddy, Secretary of State. The people of Indiana, without regard to party, will be shocked to hear this morning of the death of Hon. Norman Eddy, Secretary of State, which occurred very suddenly yesterday morniug at his residence in this city. The particulars of the sad event will be found recorded in our local columns.

Col. Eddy was born in Scipio, Cayuca county, New York, December 10, 1810, whence he removed toMishawoka, St. Joseph county, in 1836. In 1847 he located at South Bend, where he has ever sinee resided until his election to the office of Secretary of State necessitated the temporary removal of his home to the Capital.

He was elected a Member of Congress in the year 1852, over Vice President Colfax, then the candidate of the Whig party. Iu 1855 he was appointed by President Pierce District Attorney for Minnesota, and in 1S57 he was made Commissioner of the Indian Trust Lands iu Kansas. Col. Eddy afterward served as a member of the State Senate, and in 1859 —60 was appointed by the Legislature a member of the Commission "in relation to the settlement, adjustment and collection of dues to the 'State from various officers and persons indebted thereto." His colleagues upon the commission were Hon. W. T. Otto, late Assistant Secretary of the Interior, and ex-Supreme Judge J. T. Elliott. They submitted a lengthy and exhaustive report to the General Assembly of 1861, from which we have had frequent occasion to quote pending the discussion of the frauds of Democratic officers during the past twelve months. Col. Eddy was the author of the larger portion of that report, which must always stand as the best monument to the incorruptible and fearless integrity of the dead Secretary.

In the fall of 1861 orders were given for the organization of a regiment of volunteers in the Tenth and Eleventh Congressional districts, and the details committed to the hands of Hon. W. H. Ellis and Dr. Eddy. The organization of the regiment was completed on the 6th of December. Mr. Eddy was commissioned its Colonel, and continued in personal command until July, 1863, when he was compelled to retire from the service by reason of ill-health and disability resulting from severe wounds received in the battle of Iuka, Mississippi, while at the head of his troops. In that engagement the Forty-eighth lost one hundred aud nineteen killed aud wounded out of a total of four hundred and twenty who entered the fight.

After hi3 retirement from the army Col. Eddy lived ic comparative quiet at his home in South Bend, practicing his profession, until he was appointed Collector of Internal Revenue for the Eleventh District by President Johnson, an office he continued to hold until relieved by Mr. Chestnutwood, under the present administration. At the Democratic State Convention held January 8, 1870, Col. Eddy was nominated for the office of Secretary of State over Jason B. Brown, receiving 634 votes on the first ballot. At the October election the choice of that convention was ratified by a popular election, and since January last Col. Eddy has been a resideut of Indianapolis. Such, in brief, is a record of the official life of a man who passed unscathed of dishonorable suspicion through every partisan contest in wnich he was engaged, and who will be remembered, by political friends and foes alike, as a thoroughly conscientious officer, and as a courteous gentleman and an honest man in every relation of life. Amid the corruption and fraud of the party with which he was affiliated, he carried the escutcheon of his manhood unsullied. Of him it can be truly said "Faithful found

Among the faithless, faithful he." His Excellency, the Governor, has issued the following with reference to the Secretary's death:

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 29tb, 1872. It becomes my painful duty to announce the death of Hon. Norman Eddy, Secretary of the Stato of Indiana. He died on Sunday morning, the 28th inst. A good man, a true patriot, and a faithful public servant has departed. The Executive Rooms and the State offices will be closed until Wednesday morning, the 31st instant, as a mark of respect to the deceased. CONRAD BAKER,

Governor of Indiana.

SHYLOCK.

Mrs. Macready's Triumph in Utica. There was a magnificent audience at the Opera House on Saturday evening to witness Mrs. Macready's wonderful impersonation of "Shylock" in "TheMerchant of Venice." That accomplished lady must have been highly gratified at the manner in which she was received in Utica. After the numerous popular entertainments which were so liberally patronized during the last week, the audience on Saturday evening must be considered a very large one. Many new faces were seen at the Opera House on that occasion which have never before looked at a theatrical performance on the stage.

Few, if any, professional ladies have as many warm personal friends and admirers in this city as Mre. Macready. As a dramatic reader she was considered highly gifted and accomplished, and it was not strange that those whom she had often eutertained from the reading desk, and in the drawing-room, should feel a deep interest in her successful effort to personate one of the most powerful and difficult roles of the legitimate drama.

The impersonatiou of "Sbylocfc" by Mrs. Macready was a truly wonderful effort for a lady. As she walked slowly out upon the stage iu the first act, welcomed by remarkably enthusiastic applause, the woman actress was forgotten and the relentless old Jew stood before the audience. Throughout the whole of the interesting performance the character was personated beyond criticism. There were no forced efforts or ranting, even, though the character required almost the full strength aud force of a man to express the intense feelings of sorrow, revenge and remorse. On the stage Mrs. Macready was "Shylock"—off the stage she is a refined, accomplished and beautiful lady, who will always receive a warm welcome in Utica.

The star of the evening was supported by one of the best companies ever seen iu Utica. Mr. J. H. Taylor is the excellent actor who supported Mrs. Lander in her recent visit to this city. As "Gratiano" he won new favor. Mr. Knight, Mrs. Macready's pupil, appeared as "Antonio," and was well received. Mr. Joseph SeftoH, as "Lauucelot," made a decided hit. He is one of the best comedians we have seeu in many a day, and he received frequent and well-deserved rounds of applause. Miss Annie Sefton sustained the character of "Portia" admirably. Miss Anna Sutton made a charmin* "Nerissa," aud was recognized as a favorite who has appeared before in

Utica. Miss Reeves aud the other memsrs of the company all deserve pleasant ords of compliment.

The entertainment was one of the best, not the best, ever witnessed in Utica.

LOYE WITHOUT MONEY.

The Rural Xew York Damsel's Appeal to Alexis. The Chicago Tribune publishes the following as the much talked-of letter addressed to the Grand Duke, begging for marriage money," aud swears to its authenticity To the Grand Duke Alexis:

YOUR MOST HONORED MAJESTY am aware that yon must be wearied with letters of various kinds, but still I have hope that you will listen to the story of a country maiden, one who is in trouble, and has presumed upon your kind heart by asking help. My story is this: There came to me a" year ago a broken-hearted man. He had lost, the year before his lovely and amiable wife, and with her had perished every aim in life,every hope, and every desire for anything that earth could afford. I became acquainted with him, and it became my privilege to cheer his broken heart, aud relieve it of its heavy burden of sorrow in a measure, so that earth seemed brighter, and life again presented some attractions. In short he became to love me and I to love him, as, perhaps, not many have loved. We want to be married he wants a home again, but misfortune has made it impossible. His father is a man of moderate means in the middle class of society (as people are classed in this country), iivingin Hamilton county, in New York State, and therefore is unable to' help him. His relatives are honorable, being ranked among missionaries, physicians, etc. He is a man about 33 years of age, honorable and intelligent, and possessed of the highest Christian principle. When bis wife died, he had just purchased a small farm and had just began to pay for it. But his home was broken up, aud he sold it with much loss, thus leaving him in debt. He is now owing about $900. He is a carpenter by trade, aud the most he can pay yearly is $150, thus making it a long time before he can be free to support a wife. He is keeping up an insurance on his life, so that if he should die his creditors should have their pay. He is honest, iu these times of dishonesty and fraud, and will pay the last cent that he owes, and, after that, we must wait to lay by something before we can be married.

Now, if your Majesty has ever loved, you know how hard it must be to wait so long. He is getting discouraged, and although I am willing to wait, he is beginning to think it not best to wait so long, and thinks he will try and live as he is, and not love any oue, rather than keep me waiting for him so long. You must be wealthy, and what he would think a great help you would think was nothing in your royal grandeur. He does not know I am doing this he would not let me. But if I could only surprise him that is, if I could send him something, and he not know where it came from, for a while, until after I bad saved my lover, how happy I should be. I have cast about me a long time to think what I could do to help him, and this is the last resort. My health is not good, or I could do something to earn money.

This is a simple, and true story, aud if your Royal Highness could do something to help us or could raise something among your wealthy friends in the way of money, I assure you it would be most gratefully received, and in after years, when you shall have followed your illustrious father to the throne of Russia, your name wiH be held in veneration by "two American hearts at least. If this is not beneath your notice, if you or your friends could help us in the way of money to cancel any of my lover's debts, would .besintby a draft on some Eeastern bank to the order of N. M. Deah. Please send it to my address.

HAIR VIGOR.

IYER'S

A I I O

For the Renovation of the Hair!

The 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, though 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, 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.
