A TERRE HAUTENTOT sold his old homestead in Baltimore the other day, to a business

company

represented by the

editor of the Baltimore Sun for the sum of $450,000.—Ind. Journal.

SEVERAL very vexatious errors crept into our columns yesterday, we being too much hurried by the rush of business incident to reporting the proceedings of the "first spike" party yesterday, to read our proofs with care.

THE Terre Haute & Chicago Railroad are erecting telegraph poles at a rapid rate along their elegant and popular line. In a short time we hope to be able to chronicle the fact that they ha%-e their entire line in running order.

MAKING a phonograpic report of an oratorial perroration while standing in a cold drizzling rain mixed with snow, may be fun for beholders who can have their hands in their pockets,Jaut it is intensely cool for the stenographer.

THE citizens of Terr© Haute, Indiana, are making an effort to induce Mr. Woodhull to deliver ber lecture on "Social Freedom" in that city.—Chicago Evening Mail.

In the mildly expostulating language of the truly pious Tribune agriculturalist, "You lie, you villian you lie!"

EASTER is looming up in the not far distant future. Fortunately eggs are on the decline, and we think by that time will be within the reach of the poor, that they too may enjoy the day as well as the proud aristocrats and bloated bondholders.

WE are happy to announce that Rev. Pius, a Franciscan Father, who has been appointed by the Right Rev. Bishop of Vincennesto take charge, of St. Beudict's congregation in this city, will leave Louisville, Kv., this morning and maybe expected either to-day or to-morrow, among the members of the German Catholic congregation.—Journal.

WE learn from the officials of the Terre Haute & Chicago Raiload that the branch of that line from its junction with the I., B. & W. road to Danville, is almost completed. Trains have hitherto run rn on the track of the I., B. & W. by telegraph orders.

"OITR special reporter" has some very interesting newsy items about business in another column, fie will make such itemizing an important feature of the Evening GAZETTE, which

will be to the

interest of the business men to encourage when he calls on them. Miss FANNIE KELLOGG will probably return to her home in »this city this week. She has been studying in Indiana and concerning in that Siane and Illinois for several months past, with pronounced success. A farewell concert is to be given her by the citizens of Terre Haute—aiuong whom she is an immense favorite.— Council Bluffs (Iowa) Nonpareil.

NEW FIRM.—It will be seen by a notice in another column that the firm of J. H. Locke & Son, paper dealers, has

been

dissolved,

H. Locke retiring. The

new firm will be Lee M. Locke and Thos. Walmsley, who will continue business at the old stand. They are young, energetic and competent, and there is no reason why they should not do a large and successful trade.

THE practice of boys hanging on to the street cars when in motion, is entirely too prevalent, and it is the duty of parcuts to s^e to it that their children do not transgress in this manner. If they do not, their precious offspring may come home a fit subject for a family reunion at ft first-class infantile funeral when they least expect it. If there is no law for tiie prohibition or punishment of boys indulging in this practice, there should be.

As WILL be seen by reference to our local notice columns, our joliy fneud Thou. J. Gist, of the popular buss line of this a\iy, has something to say, which should, and doubtless will, interest our readers. Everybody knows T. J. Gist, and everybody knows that he trill do just what he says he will. His father instructed him in his youthful days lu the great principles of truth, which has immortalized the great aud good Washington, the first father of his country, and saved that youth from an awful walloppiug.

PERSONAL.— G. W. JBement, Esq., •went to Mattoon last evening and sampled .some of his stock of sugar, coffee and other groceries, prepared in a style peculiar to the Essex House, under the direction of Dan. Messer and his «stimable lady.

Joe. Griswold, Esq., is in the citj Miss Mary Gordon, of the city schools, is quite ill at the residence of her mother, in this city.

J. D. Herkimer, Esq., accompanied by Ills accomplished and estim&bl©wife will £o to Utah soon, we learo.^

Eridences of Prosperity. By Special Reporter of the Gaze*. The Terre Haute Furniture Company peport 4,000 bedsteads manufactured by them in 1871, varying in price from $4.00 to $5.00 each. From one hundred miles southwest comeletters of inquiry, hurrying up the contemplated railroad, jfor future furniture shipments.

Fouts, Hunter & Thompson, the stock dealers, report anticipated shipments of a couple of car loads East, next Tuesday, as their Mr. Thompson has returned home with a choice lot of "calico" horses, for John Bobinson's circus.

We found Mr. J. A. Parker, of the Eagle Iron Works, too busy to report the large number of engines and other machinery, turned out from the "Eagle." "All quiet in the wool trade," was the report from the Wabash Woolen Mills.

In passing the boiler manufactory of Messrs. Cliff & Sou, the familiar sounds of musical industy, similar to those proceeding from the Eclipse Boiler Works, corner of Eleventh and Sycamore streets, induced us to call for the graphic report of Messrs. C. & Son—"full of busineas"— "more orders than we can fill."

The Merchants' Mill of Mr. R. L. Thompson, yesterday indicated that quiet which usually precedes a storm, and we shall expect a loud grinding report shortly.

Messrs. Keyes & Mancourt report immense Western sales, and shipments of their carriage material to Denver and important points in Missouri, Iowa, Kansas, etc.

We are unable to give the estimated number of packages of hominy, grits, corn flour, etc., manufactured daily by Hudnut & Co.

Hen fruit is becoming plenty as the season advances for the chickens to "discount freely." We shall be compelled to tap the shell of some prominent egg packer for future items.

The steamers Zanesville, Young America, Himrod, and the barge "Loon," compriSed the craft in port yesterday. A new barge is in course of construction, for the saw log business, above the bridge. Our river gauge—the artesian—was bubi bling away.

Among the bloody countenances resulting from recent "scrimages on the Wabash," that of Dickout's demoralized professional—the baggage smasher, was not visible.

The busy sounds of mechauical industry continue to emanate from Seath & Hagar's extensive Car manufactwry, the Phoenix Foundry, and Peabody's northwestern hive of industry. From the large sash, blind aud doer manufactory of Clift & Williams, corner Ninth and Mulberry streets, we hope shortly for a more extended report, also descriptive details from the Terre Haute Planning Mills, of Messrs. Snapp & Hay ties, corner Ninth aud Walnut streets.

A prominent feature of the Wabash valley is the extensive distillery. The sign reads "H. Hulman, Registered Distillery." The foundation and other outside indications, are that a permanent brick wall will soon inclose this mammoth affair, the descriptive details of which we hope shortly to have in our possession, as their publication can but prove interesting to our readers and profitable to the proprietor. For the present, we can only say, that in this extent of its business capacity, it is probably not excelled, if equalled in the Mississippi Valley, and creditable to the enterprise of its proprietor, as well as to the city and State. To agriculturalists the 6ign on the eastern extremity of the square, is important to

those

in search of market

items—"Hulman's Distillery," "Highest cash price paid for corn, wheat, rye and barley."

Wine and Women.

The sensation at Mattoon last evening, was the trial of the alleged murderer of the young man killed in a house of ill fame, allusion to which was made in the GAZETTE yesterday evening. Able counsel are engaged on both sides of the case. Hon. O. B. Ficklin, of Charleston, and others, representing the defendant the Prosecutiug Attorneyr assisted by skillful counsel, representing the State. Much evidence, up to last eveuing, had been introduced. All the witnesses examined, so far as we can left*n, were "poor unfortunate" inmates of the house.

From the evidence, it appears that deceased Was attempting to force his way iuto a room of this house occupied by one of the female inmates of the house and the young man who is now on trial charged with murder. Deceased had no more than effected an entrance to the room than he was shot dead. The plea, of course, is self-defense,-and is ably and skillfully managed, while the prosecution is beingalsoskiilfully handled. Another case with a woman at the bottom of it. Of the two evils of wine and woman it is difficult to tell which is the more demoralizing. Neither do any harm when left alone, as* ttu» Jiy-M

The Ways and Means Committee JIJMJ the Tariff.^

They Favor a Reduction on Bessemer Steel and R. R. Iron.lll

5^ iir*?

Quiet and Harmony at Erie Headquarters. '*"#?r-

&C.9

-&c.

NEW YORK, March 15.—A Washington special to the Tribune says the Custom House Committee spent the entire day, yesterday, examining naval officer Laflin. The Ways and Meaps Committee have agreed to report in favor of the reduction of the duty on Bessemer steel from one and a quarter to one cent per pound, and of that upon iron railroad bars from one to three-quarters of a cent per pound. There is little doubt that the Ways and Means Committe will report in favor of important changes in the tariff upon wool and woolens.

The committee maintains secrecy as to all discussions arrived at On all proposed tariff modifications, because these discussions are provisional and subject to future modifications. The President, acting on the advice of Attorney General Williams, has concluded to suspend his request that'the District Attorney of Utah shall resign, until the Supreme Court renders its decision in the case of Clinton vs. Euglebrecht, argued last week, and which involves a question of legality of Judge McKeon's proceedings.

NEW YORK, March 15.—The death of Mattlias Clark, juror in Mayor Hall's trial, will necessitate a new trial, unless when the court meets to-day the contending parties agree that a juror shall be elected to fill the vacant place. Itis understood, however, that while the prosecution will readily assent to this proceedure, the counsel fordefeuse will urge a new trial. An indefinate prolongation of the proceedings is therefore expected. A slight divergance will probably be made by the counsel of both sides from the original plan of operations. New witnesses are being summoned and the oldest discarded.

Judge Daley desires to resign his seat in favor of some other Judge on account of the length of the trial interfering with his other duties, and it is possible that lie will decline to preside any longer.

Quiet and harmony contiuued to prevail at the Erie headquarters yesterday. The most significant and important action taken at the meeting of the Directors at noon, was the appointment of Messrs. Bischoff, Scheim & Goldscmidt, of London, as financial agents of the company iu Europe. The contract existing between the Erie Company and the Southern Improvement Company was referred to a committee of the Board to report at a future meeting. A partial of the financial statement was submitted, but being incomplete it was not furnished to the press. The meeting adjourned till Thursday next.

NEWARK, N. J., March 15.—Yesterday as a man named Thomaff Fulton, flftyfivg

years

of age, residiug at the corner

of John and Morrison streets, East Newark, was crossing the railroad track in front of the 7:30 A. M. train, bound for Jersey City, his foot slipped and he stumbled directly in front of the engine and before he could recover himself it out off one leg, crushing the other terribly, smashing a number of his ribs and fearfully lacerating his back. He died within an hour after the accident.

BROOKLYN, March 15.—A mass meeting of the citizens of Brooklyn was held last night at the Academy of Music to hear the reports of the committees appointed to investigate frauds committed at the last election, and to devise measures for securing honest elections and local administrations in the future. After the reports had been read speeches were made by Franklin Woodruff, General Woodford, Hon. Demas Barnes and others, generally denouncing the frauds at the late elections. A resolution was adopted asking the committee to continue its organization.

CHrCAGO,

March 15.—A man driving

a grocery wagon was run over yesterday on the Fort Wayne road, near the city limits, killing the man and horse and smashing the wagon. The engineer claims toJia^je the edly.

A bloody tragedy occurred on Wednesday iu the adjoiniug village of Grass Point. Two brothers-in-law had a quarrel at a public auction, and one, Peter Smith, shot the other, M. Schaffer, dead. The murderer was arrested. Smith had been drinking freely. 7*"^

Two women named Star^andf Taylor, living in the same building, got into ft quarrel yesterday about the chastisement of one of the Stark children. Mrs. Taylor, in auger,

threw

something at Mrs.

Stark, the missile struck a gasaline lamp which set fire to Mrs. Stark's little child, nine years old, and she was roasted to death. Her motbejr was also badly burned. &

OMAHA, March 151—'The transfer matters between the Union Pacific and the Iowa railroads, seeca to have arrived at a dead look of the Missouri river bridge when completed, but (there seems to be a difficulty of opinion as to who shall do the crossing over, the bridge, and whose passei^ers and freights are to be transferred. At a special meeting of the City Council last evening, the following resolutions were passed!

Resolved, That the officers of the Union Pacific Railroad Compauy are hereby respectfully requested not to go beyond their terminus, in Omaha, to discbarge their passengers and freights, and we farther requeaUbatg anj£ tW«d party

has to be employed to assist in making the transfer, said party shall be the representative of an Eastern railroad, and not of the Union Pacific.

BLACKBERRY, III., March 15.—The largest meeting of formers ever held in the center of Kane county, was held here last night. The following resolutions were passed:

Mesoleed, That we hear with indignation and disgust that the whisky men of Illinois, in session at Springfield, have declared that no man shall hold office and no political party shall succeed unless theytshall be allowed to do as they please and are permitted to make whisky king, and we appeal to the people of the State of Illinois to take up the gage of battle thus cast at us, and tell them that they are not yet our masters.

Besolved, That we fully ratify and endorse the new temperance law. GALENA, ILLS., March 15.—The checker tournament which commenced here last Thursday is still in progress at the St. James Hotel, in this city, and will not be concluded till this evening, at least. The great contest is between Mr. Spencer, of Wisconsin, and Mr. Scott, of Elizabeth, who commenced their match on Wednesday and hadn't finished it at five o'clock last evening. It is a very close game. ,,

Men have been at work since Wednesday, taking down the front walls of the two buildings which broke down that day, in order to prevent further accidents. A large force of hands are at work securing the grain as rapidJy as possible. In some places the oats are unmixed, and will be sacked and secured in good condition. In another part of the ruins the oats and corn are mixed up with the mortar and dirt.

Between 50,000 and 60,000 bushels of grain were stored in the buildings. Now, as the debris is far cleared away, it looks even worse than at first. -One yar ago the steamer Savannah was in this port taking a load of freight for St. Louis. The river is tq-day closed with ice. ^wy

Hon. W. A. Little was alive yesterday at the last report, but was very low. CINCINNATI, March 15.—The drying oven of the marbleizing manufactory on Main street, exploded this forenoon with a lond report. The building was considerably damaged and two workmen were slightly iujured.

The supplimental bill filed by the antiScheffets and against re-districting the city was dismissed to-day. This is conceded as the beginning of an eventual victory for those in favor of re-districting.

NEW ORLEANS, March 15.—The Sixth Grand State Fair of the Merchants Agricultural Fair Exposition, commences on the 24th of April and continues 7 days. The premiums to be rewarded exceed $20,000, and in addition thereto the association set apart $10,000 for objects of special interest not provided for in the published list.

The grounds have been highly ornamented, and provided with extensive buildings for accommodating exhibitors. Railroads and steamboat lines will transport passengers and articles of exhibition at special rates.

Small seizures of smuggled goods were made yesterday and to-day. S NEW YORK, March 15.—The.steam tug P. S. Carter caught her quarter under the pier last night and was swamped and sunk. Her crew was asleep and barely escaped with life. The tug is valued at $10,000. Mostly insured.

MEMPHIS, March 15.—A hackman and a restaurant waiter were arrested last night as the murderers of Alkinson, who was shot below the city some time since while on his way lgome with stock.

A high bridge on the Memphis & Louisville Railroad,a few miles from this city, was set on fire last night and partly burned. Fortunately, a farmer living near saw the flames and collected his neighbors and extinguished the fire and signalled the night train due here at 3 A. M., preventing what would have undoubtedly been a terrible accident. The company will set detectives to work to fiud out the incendiary.

ST. PAUL, March 15.—Weather cold and clear, and the thermometer stands 15 degrees below zero in the shade, gg

DUBUQUE, IOWA, March 15.—The thermometer stands two degrees below zero. Weather clear.

NEW ORLEANS, March 15.—Cotton quiet at 22c. Receipts 4,094 bales.

Indiana & Illinois Central Railroad. The prospects for the immediate construction of the Ind. & 111. Cen. R. R. through Douglas county are flattering, if we are allowed to judge from what the officers of the road claim for it. Mr. Hammond, President, and Col. Moore, Chief Engineer, arrived in this city on Wednesday to make arrangements for the immediate commencement of work at this point, and no preventing Providence, they propose to commence the grading week after next. Mr. Hammond informed our people that the ties for the entire line between this point and Rockville, Ind., bad. been contracted for, ajid that iron enough to span this coUntyhad been purchased before he left New York. They propose to commence here and go both ways at the same time. The company seem to think that with an average spring the road can be easily constructed through our country in time to save all the donations, and we hope they may be able to do so. Our fellow-citizen, T. D. Craddock, President of the Bloomington & Chicago River Railroad has a contractor for furnishing the company 100,000 ties. So we have been informed by L. J. Wyeth.—Tuscola {IU.) Journal. M~-

THE announcement that the President has declared hisSfhtention to force his nomination at Philadeldhia, whether there shall then appear a reasonable prospect of his election or not, is made in our Washington dispatches on the authority of a leading Congressman and warm supporter of the President. We should like, in spite of this warrant, to doubt it, since it is a saddening thing to finfl a man ready to rend the Republican party in pieces not for any question of party, principle or reform in party practice, but to secure additional reward to himself.—N. Y. Tribune.

English Iron Trade

The Sheffield (England) lelegraph has an interesting review of the state of the British iron trade. It says that the unusual rates which are being paid for iron at first sight betokens a favorable condition of affairs, but when reference is made to the cause of this advance, it will be found that perplexity 'among buyers can be the only result, and not that healthy speculation on their part which is the aQgury of a prosperous future. /The. .present state of the iron trade5

}5s

unnatural,

and prices advance by such sudden and extensive grades that actual requirements are only served, aud this "hand-to-mouth policy prevents that easy flow of business which gives assurance to the iron-master and confidence to the dealer. English iron are advancing proportionately with the prices required for the best Swedish descriptions, and since our last report no less than 10s per ton more money has not only been demanded but obtained on ail varieties. All English ores are bought up wherever they may be- found lying, and at long prices, but they are scar'ce and dearer day by day. The explanation of the advance iu Swedish iron is simple. The Swedish mills are driven by waterpower, and the fuel to be used is conveyed over the snow in sledges. For the past eight months there has been no rain in that country, hence the streams of water are insufficient to drive the mills, and the snow having now entirely gone, the fuel has to be conveyed over roads of the rudest description, which are almo3t finpassable. The ironworkers from these causes are unable to proceed, with their employment, and in some districts the utmost distress prevails. The stoppage of the supply of these best qualities of iron has unfortunately taken place at a period when they are most required, so large stockholders have advanced their prices enormously, so as to check the demand. Nevertheless, for some work no other descriptions can be accepted, and this engenders a stiffness in the prices of manufactured steel articles, a result which isat once felt by buyers of Sheffield and Birmingham goods.

Feeder to the Wabash.

Mr. Morley, who is a practical civil engineer, suggests that the Kaukakee marsh and river might be made a considerable feeder to the Wabash,-by means of-a big ditch or canal fourteen or fifteen miles in length, carrying the water into the Tippecanoe. He thinks that nearly one half the water of the Kankakee might thus be used to swell the Wabash, and would go far toward furthering the enterprise on foot to render the river navigable from LaFayette to its mouth, in addition to reclaiming the tens of thousands of aeres of land constituting the Kankakee marsh. We learn that Messrs. Cass and Dowson, of the Draining Company, have several thousand acres of swamp lands that would be materially benefitted, if not entirely reclaimed, by this canal, and might .be induced to aid the enterprise, if their attention were called to it. Is not this a matter of sufficient importance to the welfare of LaFayette to claim the attention of the Board of Trade? Any steps taken by the Board in furtherance of the impro've.ment of the Wabash, now undertaken by Act of Congress, would be a public benefaction. If the waters of the Upper Kankakee can be had so as to materially aid in rendering the Wabash river navigable from LaFayette, by all means let us have them.—LaFayette Courier.'

LITTLE incident in the House of Representative,yesterday, illustrated the absurdity of trifling with amnesty, as Congress is now doing. It has been agreed that the members shall pass up to the clerk's desk the names of the rebels whom they wish restored-to the rights of citizenship, to be passed upon without the lists being read. But this was with the understanding that none of the class specially excepted by act of Congress should be so favored by any member. In the last list of candidates, the name of ex-Gov. Vance, of North Carolina, was discovered, and, as he is one of the "proscribed" rebels, a hubbub was created. There is something pitiful in the fact that this sharp cutting of corners and dodgibg about is necessary in order rightly to divide the nicely shaded classes of rebels. All this would be avoided by a single statesmanlike act— universal amnesty.—N. Y. Tribune.

ANDREW J. GARVEY, since his recall from exile, has boasted that when he is through with giving his State's evidence he will have saved out of his operations the round sum of three millfons in contemplation of which he observes that his old co-thieves may be——condemned. We do not know whether or not his boastings are warranted by the arrangement the District Attorney has made with him for the sake of procuring bis testimony but it will be a question with many honest people whether so great a sum of money as he confesses to have "stolen will actually belong to him. Three millions is a very large witness fee for even so great and contemptible -a scoundrel as Garvey, and his boast sounds very much like the Scotch woman's saying when hard swearing cleared her of a charge of stealing some bed-clothing: "Well, now that the guilt is my own, I'll make a petticoat of it."—N. Y. Iribune.
