Additionnl Local News.

ALTHOUGH newspapers are usually infallible, no one will be likely to believe our item iu yestercfay's issue, stating that the Council meets every first and third Saturdays. Nor are the typos guilty of the blunder. The writer confers to have written it Saturday instead of Tuesday as it should have been.

AN item in the Chicago

MRS. LIVEHMORE.— Mrs. Mary A. Livermore has recently lectured iu Newark, N. Y. Of her lecture the local journal says: "Her address was eloquent and forcible but it was more than that, it was beautiful. We have never seen a speaker give such heartfelt satisfaction to a whole audience as that given byMrs. Livermore to her hearers iu Newark. Her predecessors in our lecture course include two candidates for the Presidency and one eminent member of the United States Senate, and yet we have heard it more thau once expressed, by the best of judges, that her leoture was worth all of theirs together. She may be proud of her triumph here, and so may we."

THERE ought to be a coal and woodyard or market in this city, where vendors of fuel might congregate, and where purchasers might find them. In the present condition of affairs, the crossings at the public square are so blockaded and obstructed that citizens often find it difficult to force their way through the jam of men and teams, making it especially disagreeable for ladies. In the evening, too, passers-by are violently importuned to purchase a load of wood, and uo matter how politely the offer may be declined, the homeward bound pedestrian is lucky if some brawny teamster does not shout an insulting remark after him, which is sure to be echoed by other members of the hauling fraternity. The present arrangement is a great nuisance, and it would be gratitying if some decided reform was instituted.

The iVTienaeri'hor Masquerade. The Mteuuerchor tsquerade at Dowling Hall last night, marked au epoch in the history of balls in this city. It was by far the most interesting, most costly, and the largest, entertainment of the kind ever witnessed in Terre Haute. The crowd was truly immense, and occupied apparently every foot of space on both floor aud gallery. Up to twelve o'clock, dancing was almost impossible but the beautiful tableaux, varied aud eveic.ianging scenes, gorgeous procession?, splendid song9 and fuult-1-SS dances on the stage, completely rivited the attention of the anxious lookers-on uutil after twelve o'clock and the infinite variety of masks and costumes, some the most common, others the most costly, many ridiculous and many beautiful, afforded au endless studyto every one of whatever taste or degree of curiosity. After twelve came supper, when the masks, were removed and a large portion of the visitors departed

This gave those remaining an opportunity to indulge in the giddy nuzes to their hearts coutent. Tout's unrivaled band furuisned the music, and to L. Hoi felder the credit of the splendid management of the whole affair is given. The Maennaclior will always have cause feel proud of their unparalleld success in the history of masquarades in Terre ^auto.

reads in this wise: "Indiana has a candidate for vocal honors, named Miss Kellong, who will accompany Nilsson to Europe in the spring."

The Miss K.ellotrtr here referred to does belont? to the Hoosier State at all, at all, a id we here put in a plea in bar of the lar(!«nv.

She may have been in Council Bluffs at one time, but a six month resideuee in this State makes her a resident of Terre Haute, and she is entitled to all the privileges of a citizen, except she can't vote, asd if we don't miss our guess, she will remain here permanently.

JUST now when it is almost impossible pedestrians to get from one door to another in any part of our city, every citizen feels a peculiar interest in the subject of better sidewalks, more substantially paved streets, &c. Strangers who are lost in admiration of every other feature of ourgrowingcity, wouder that such an enterprising people as we, have so long neglected these most necessary improvements. But it is an easy matter to dispose of these impertinent questions from strangers. All we have to do is to reply to them as did the negligent farmer to the Arkausaw traveller: "When the weather is bad we can't, and when it is good it isu't necessary."

A MODEL EVENING PARTY.—One of the social needs of our daily life is a rational way of spending an evening. Of course, oue can go to a concert or a club. Or, on the other hand, he may remain at home, which, generally, if he has a home is better than all. But suppose he wants an evening company—adozeu, or tweuty, or fifty friends to his parlor what shall he do with them when he gets them there? They usually come elegantly dressed—ladies in silk or satin, with flowers in their hair and jewels in their breasts—the gentlemen in genteel broadcloth, white kids and prelatical cravats. After arriving, they receive the handshake of the host and hostess, pass a few observations on the existing condition of the external atmosphere, glide up and down through the mid-parlor spleudors, deflect occasionally into the corner pas-ages, elbow one auother with graciously begged and grauted pardons, talk a few minutes to one and a few minutes to another, sip a glass of lemonade, nibble at a frosted poundcake, «pill a few drops of coffee on an underskirt, waltz a little, fan much, and at a proper lateness of hour retire, leaving a whisper to the effect of having greatly enjoyed an evening which really had nothing enjoyable, aud which was on the contrary a most superb and costly bore.

Business.

Editor of lerre Haute Gazette Our enterprising business men care little about ante-deluvian history. What Terre Haute is, rather than what she was is more (tesired by the present generation.

First, then, let it be announced to "all whom it may concern," that Terre Haute in reputation, is fast gaining the topmost round, as a manufacturing and railroad city.

Second. Her close proximity to the best block coal fields of the State, renders her location, for the manufacture of iron and steel, as much superior to Pittsburg and other Pennsylvania cities, as theirs has previously been to New England, for the necessary supplies to the Mississippi valley.

Third. If the "Creative Power has given us a location, where, for a less amount of labor, than on any other part of God's earth, iron and steel of the best quality may be produced," is it not our own fault, if we contiuue to hamper that labor with taxes for the necessities of its consumption so high, that less fivored foreigu nations successfully contest our|own markets? Why continue to insult the dignity of labor by inscribing on party bauners, "protection to American industry." Away with that pretended "protectionfor what is "American industry" but the labor of her operatives, aud are not capital and wealth the proceeds of that same labor? Are not the real interests of both capital and labor identical? If the former may hunt the markets of the world to import, free of duty,its cheap labor from China or elsewhere to compete with home labor, may not that same home labor demand an equal right to import,/ree of duty, the necessary articles for its own consumption When justice is done to both capital and labor, American skill, enterprises, capital aud labor may then unitedly aud successfully demand "an open field aud fair fiyht" iu the markets of the world. That it will then be most cheerfully maintained by the stroug arm of American labor, is the opinion of

AN ADOPTED HOOSIKR.

AMID the haze of discussion which surrounds the "American claims" againt-t England two facts now stand out vory clearly—number one, that England will not consent to refer the claims to arbitra tion as they at present stand, and number two, that the United States Government will not modify its "case." It is useless, theu, to conceal the truth which we shall have to acknowledge sooner or later—namely, that the Geneva .Conference is a failure. The most hopeful at tempt ever made at the settlement of uational differences by arbitration, has broken down at the very start—a sore discouragement to similar experiments in the future. The difficulty will always be to get the opposing parties to agree upon preliminaries—that is, to decide what questions they will submit to arbi nation. Tlie "Alabama claims" are probably destined to be included among the numerous permanently unsettled disputes which cause ill-feeling between nations, and threaten the peace of the world.—jjy". Y.

BRITISH IRON ORES FAILING.

Indiana the Seat of Steel Manufacture.

The Poverty and Paueitfcy of Briti»l» Ores an Compared With Those of 111e West.

To the editor of the New York Tribune SIK:—Every geological observer who investigates the distribution of the coals and iron ores of our country, and the facilities which exist for bringing them together, must, I think, arrive at the conclusion that before the lapse of another generation, the United States will be the great iron and steel-produciug country of the world.

Great Britain is now at the head of the iron interest, having some 600 furuaces which annually consume upward of 11,500.000 tuus of ore, and bring but a proiluct in pig metal of 5,500,000 tuns, valued at over £13,500,000 sterliug. This production is only about 2£ that of the United States and in going back a single decade, \vef*ud that in Great Britain the rate of increase had been only about 44 per cent., while in the United States the rate has been at least 120 per cent. There are causes in operation which will prevent any rapid*expan«iou of the iron industry in the one couutry, while in the other the great sources of that industry are comparatively untouched. Among these causes may be mentioned the limited supply of good ores in Great Britain, the necessity which arises each year of sinking deeper for the fuel to smelt them, and, consequently, the increased expense of raising it to-day. It is to the former consideration I shall dirtct attention.

The great body of British ores is derived from the coal measures and the lias. These formations occur in the districts of Yorkshire, Derbyshire, North and South Staffordshire, Warwickshire, and Shropshire. They are argillaceous in character and yield about 26 per cent, in the furnace. Now, if we turn to Percy's great work on the "Metallurgy of (British) Iron," where the assays of 100 specimens of these ores are given, we shall find that iu every instance be detected the presence of phosphorous, and while the average amount reached 63 per cent., iu some instances it went up to 1.12. No metalurgic skill has thus far been able to elimiuate this deleterious ingredient from the ores or prevent it from passing into pig-iron, nor is it wholly extirpated from the manufactured bar. In the Bessemer process it adheres to the iron in every stage aud in undiminished quantity. With one percent of phosphorous, iron becomes fit for but few purposes. Sulphur is also present in these ores, which is to some extent expelled by calcination and the subsequent process of puddliug, but sufficient remains to render the iron unfit for conversion into the higher qualities of steel. These noxious ingredients appertain to the coal measure ores the world over as though the organic matter which formed the coal, being charged with these substances, communicated them to the iron es.

In the district of Dartmoor and Devonshire there are limited deposits of magnetites, but they contain about two per cent, of phosphorus, which renders them nearly worthless. In the carboniferous limestone of Cleator Moor, Cumberland, a compact, pulverulent, uuctious ore is obtained, yielding 66 per cent, and frt from the deleterious compounds at Lindale Moor and Ulverstone, Lancaster, a hard, compct hematite is obtained, yielding 65 per cent, and of an excellent quality. These are the most highlyprized of British ores and so great is the demand for them to be employed in the Bessemer process, that within two years their price has advauced 50 and 70 perceut. and the product of the miues has been coutracted for up to the year 1873. So inadequate is the supply, that British iron-masters hare organized a company to import a high grade of ores from the distant region of Spain. Another significant fact, showing the deficiency of England in ores suitable for the higher qualities of steel, is this: that, notwithstanding she is the largest exporter of iron iu different forms, she is at the same time a very considerable importer from Sweden and Russia of pig metal made from specular aud maguetic ores, similar in composition to those derived from Like Superior and Missouri, aud only used by the irou-masters of Indiana for ordinary purposes. ASheffie steel manufacturer will pay £30 a tun for this iron, when ordinary British pig can be had at a price five or six times less. These importations reach 50,000 tuns a year.

Here are considerations which ought to arrest the attention of American statesmen and political economists in reference to the future growth aud grandeur of his couutry. I have endeavored to show, in my former letters to the Tribune, that in Indiana there is a vast body of fossil fuel which has all the merits of charcoal as a reducing agent that iu Missouri and on the borders of Lake Superior are vast deposits of iron ore, free from noxious ingredients, and eminently adapted to the production of the highest grades of iron and Bessemer steel, aud that the natural and artificial communications are such that the union between the coal and iron can be effected as cheaply as in any region of the earth. J. W. FOSTER.

Indianapolis, Jan. 22, 1872.

DONN PIATT narrowly escaped being murdered iu a Washington street car on Monday evening. A negro, named Geo. Mclntire, had been making himself very oftiensive toward several passengers on the rear platform, and, when Mr. Piatt left the car at Sixteenth street, Mclntire seized the iron handle of the brake, aud, wrenching it from its position, followed him to the sidewalk and along the. pavement for some distance. Just as the parties were closing some gentlemen passing by Upterfered, and two policemen fortunately arivins? at that moment, after a severe struggle, took the negro into custody, He was a large, powerful man.

A GOOD Democratic minister, on one occasion, during the Mexican war, addressed the Throne of God thus "Oh, Lord," he exclaimed, with burning fervor, "Thou knowestthat it is not true as charged by Thine enemies, the Whigs, that this is a cruel war of invasion. Thou knowest that our sacred soil was first invaded, and that General Taylor iri crossing the Rio Grande, did but make a just defence of Thy children. But oh, Lord, I will not dwell on this, for it is not set forth in the message of our beloved President."

THE COAL ROAD.—If anything were needed to impress our citizens with the necessity of building a short road to the coal fields, it is to view the project from the Terre Haute standpoint. We may talk boldly, but there is no gettim around the fact that Terre Haute now offers superior attractions to capitalists. Her railroad facilities are good, and she can furnish coal for manufacturing purposes at least twenty per cent, cheaper than we can at present.—Ind. Eventing a

LONDON, Feb. 13.—Mail advices from Bueuos Ayres gives further information regarding the recent massacre in the Gurodel district of the Argentine Republic.

The outbreak was the result of fanatical excitement among the Guaches, who are mulattoes of the lower class, who were urged to the perpetration of the massacre by the excited harangues of their leader, who had resolved to drive froeiguers from the State. The Guaches, armed and in great numbers, suddenly attacked Guarchos.

The authorities were apprised of the disturbance, and troops were marched to the scene. A great many unfortunate foreigners were killed by the Guaches before the arrival of the troops. The assassins were then attacked by the military. Several volleys were fired with deadly effect, and many prisoners were taken,including several of the iustigators, who have been executed, to the relief ot the foreigners, who are now assured ample protection by the authorities.

NEW YOBK, Feb. 13.—Among the French residents in this city a subscription has been opened to raise funds to aid the French Government to pay war indemnities, iu order to get rid of the German occupation as soon as possible.

A fire destroyed a three story brick building last night, damaging the stock of Henry Dietritch, grocer, $6,000. Partly insured. The fire was caused by the explosion of a glass lamp.

The meeting of the Auxiliary Association to promote the recognition of God in the Constitution, was addressed last evening by Rev. D. McAllister, delegate to the Cincinnati Convention, and Rev. Messrs. Gregg, Milligan, Kennedy and Boggs.

Resolutions were adopted in favor of the proposed reform, and insisting that it is in oppositon to the union of church and State.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—A meeting took place at White Hall, Washington county, this State, on the 7th aud 8th instants, when several purses were trotted for on the ice of Lake Champlain. Of the two purses billed, the first one was for $150, for three minute horses, mile heat, best three in five, to skeleton sleighs. The race was very closely contested, and won by Highlander after five heats being mated. Time—3:34J, 2:32£, 2:32, 2:30 and 2:31.

The second race was for a prize of $200, for all horses, same condition as the first race. It was won by Billy Lewis in three straight heats, beating Lydia, time not taken. A large crowd was present to witness the sport.

The following is the Herald's Washington special ofthel2th: The President, iu conversation to-day with the leading Senators, said a plan was now being prepared under his direction by Secretary Boutwell, as a substitute for the general order business, which will not allow the making of profits by either official or private parties.

The resignation of Col. Forney, as Collector of the Port of Philadelphia, continues to be the chief topic of conversation, and fears are expressed by some of the President's friends that it betokens a breach in the Republican party in Pennsylvania wider than Senator Cameron even has yet been able to make but no such serious result is generally anticipated, and it is not believed that any grave opposition to Grant's re-nomi-nation will be developed in that State.

The following is the Tribune's special from Washington, Febreuary 12th: A telegram from the Chairman of the New Orleans Investigating Committee, received here to-night, announces the Committee has concluded its labors in that city, and will at once return to the Capital. It is probable Garfield will have his report ready for Congress next week.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—Iu the Senate this morning the House postal bill was made the special order for Friday next. A bill was passed amending the Internal Revenue act so as to allow the breaking of bulk of goods in bond, being transported to the interior,in case of accident, detention, etc.

The Postmaster General was requested to communicate the causes of the detention of the California mails on the Pacific Railroad this winter, and what steps bad been taken to remedy the difficulty.

In the House, the bill passed reading, for removing political disabilities in certain sections of Georgia.

The resolutions of the General Asseui' bly of Rhode Island, in relation to the indemnity for French spoliations in the American commerce was submitted and referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs.

CHICAGO, February 13.—A serious strike is in progress among the iron moulders of the Union Foundry Works, resulting from an attempt of the worKmen to make the shop a Union shop in all respects. The men boast that if they can bring this great corporation into subjection they can dictate terms to all other foundries. Tbe other establishments have refused to employ any of the

.{•HfS..

strikers. It is the impression that the present strike is intended as a pretext for demanding higher wages. Men who come here from abroad and desire to work in this establishment are bought off or frightened off by the Union men, and the works are entirely suspended.

The Times and Tribune this morning both object to the selection said to have beeu made by the Secretary of the Treasury of the Bigelow block as the site of the new Postoffice, at a cost of $1,250,000. Both papers, however, seem to be interested, as the Tribune building is opposite the old site of the Postoffice, and tbe Times is going to build on Wells street, and wants the building there. The Bige« low purchase is generally satisfactory to the public.

CHICAGO, Feb. 13.—The Common Council, last night, fiually adopted tbe fire ordinance without changing its boundaries from that fixed by it some lime ago, which includes about onethird of the entire city, but covers the most populous pojtion.

SPRIEGFIELD, Ills. Feb. 13.—Reports from Carbondale are to the effect that prospect for the fruit crop is excellent. It is thought the yield of apples will exceed that of any previous year. The deach crop will not perhaps exceed that of previous years, but the quality will be better than ever before, as many orchards of improved varieties will this year be in full bearing.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 13.—The si-eamer Wannieta, which partially sunk yesterday, has settled clear dowa, and is lying across a reef and will probably break in two.

The sand boat Enterprise and twelve empty coal flats sunk here and at Covington yesterday aud last night. The total damage done by the wreck will reach $25,• 000. River rising fast 13 feet and 10 inches in the channel. The Bostonia arrived from Petersburg safely.

The officers of the Ohio «fc Mississippi Railroad state that tbe accident near Mitchell, yesterday morning, resulted in nothing more serious than a break up of freight cars, that no one was hurt, and that the report that tbe passenger train ran in the wreck of the freight train is untrue.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 13.—The excitement for the past two weeks in the mining stocks is gradually abating and the sessions of the Board are assuming their former status. Dealings in prominent mining stocks continue active market bouyant.

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13.—J. M. Hubbard, a prominent citizen of this place, died suddenly at his residence Saturday.

GOOD occasionally comes out of evil. A young man employed in the Xenia powder mills was in Springfield to spend the Sunday, got drunk, overslept himself and miSvsed the train Monday morning. Had he kept sober and b^en at his work Monday morning, his fragmentary remains might have been gathered up in a market basket after the explosion. It is not safe to take this as a precedent for getting drunk on Sundays. All druripards do not work in powder mills, though all deserve a good "blowing up" of some kind.

CAT AND FISH.—The query of the famous poet, Goldsmith, iu the wellknown line: "What cat's aversion to flsh?" Has uever been satisfactorily answered up to our time, but a suddenly illuminated genius of sixteen now auswers, "Cat-acazy, for he has a most decided aversion to Fish." That clever youth can go to tbe bead of the class.

Two men were engaged in putting up a stove for a lady. During a heavy lift one of them told the other to "spit on his hands," when the lady hastily exclaimed: "Oh, don't do that here's a spittoon."
