Additional Local News.

A PORTION of the city press is agitated over a question of equine posters. It is the Journal's turn to deliver a broadside forty miles this morning.—Express.

THE last freak of fashion in the form of the "Dolly Varden" is reassuring to fathers of families, who are pleased to hear that this summer no feminine costume will cost more than a Varden. [Note by proof-reader.—The fetch of the above is evidently a far-thing.] New York World.

CHAS. LORDand Dime Fletcher are about to invest their surplus lunds in a cigar and tobacco establishment in Martindale block.—Jnd.

Mirror.

Question Is the "nick name" of the second member of the firm suggestive of the capital to be invested in the concern? The boys had better invest enough to conduct a wholesale establishment, in this, their proposed line of business, as a firdt-class retail cigar store would not supply their own personal patronage.

A SPECIAL dispatch to the Chicago Tribune, from Springfield, Illinois, dated the 15th inst., says that "the Chicago, Danville & Vincennes Railroad Company has consolidated with the Western Indiana Railroad Company, filing articles with the Secretary of State to-day. The Springfield, Carrollton & St. Louis Railroad Company has organized under the late Railroad Incorporated law, and filed articles to-day, also the Litchfield Car Manufacturing Company, capital stock, $100,000, also filed articles of incorporation."

ST. PATRICK'S DAY in the morning, was celebrated at such an early hour yesterday that many of our citizens not educated in the faith, failed to arise in time to witness the interesting exercises, including the public parade part of the programme, all of which was very interesting to both participants and spectators. Those who were preseut enjoyed the b3auteous spectacle of reverence and respect,and to those wl were too lazy tog* up and see for themselves we will not tell much about it. The programme wts successfully followed.

A CITY PASTOR, in a sermon some time since, denounced in strong terms, the prevalent practice of churches entering upon financial schemes for furthering the financial interests of the church. We allude to Elder B. B. Tyler, of the Christian Chapel, whom we take pleasure in commending for the advocacy in his powerfully influential position in the pulpit, so reprehensible a practice. May he at least accomplish the degree of good incident to the preventing of the transgression of his own congregation, and further like results will eusue in due time.

A LOCAL cotemporarj' wants the name of the insurance man who recently left town in a shabby way, without liquidating a large claim for board. We didn't know his name when our former item was written, and don't know the whole of it now, but the first two letters of his patronymic arc H-o-w-a-r-d.—Express.

The same ponderous Howard that interviewed us several times to seduce us into the retraction of an item copied from a Chicago paper, charging him with appropriating Chicago relief funds to the advancement of his own finances. We

1st. Is it not true, as stated by the GAZETTE sometime since, that "coal of good quality tor all but smelting purposes, is delivered iu our city at 8 cents per bushel?" The second and third queries may be considered objectionable, as indicating either political or business jealousies, and in their present form, could not add to the fair business reputation of our city, which should be above these influences. In our own form, and without a particle of prejudice, we ask a business question: "At what price, aud what kind of coal, is delivered to our schools by contract? and also at the poor asylum?

Details of the lumber trade, are also solicited, as the "hard" and "soft" branches of this busiuess are now assuming commanding importance. Of course we jj|will gratefully and cheerfully respond to $ the following living item just received: "Call down and get details of sales of two car loads to the southern market, in time for to-morrow's report.

RAILROAD MATTERS.

Tom. Barnett, injured so badly on the Indianapolis & St. Louis Railroad, at Carbon, is rapidly recovering. His medical attendant is confident he will recover without undergoing amputation of the foot.

George Likert, conductor on the Vandalia, who was thrown from his tiain between Indianapolis and Terre Haute, and severely injured several days since, is at his home in the former city, and making very rapid progress towards rein covery from the painful injuries he then received.

An unknown lady, traveling on the East St. Louis and Decatur road, was dangerously injured Friday last near Staunton, Illinois. She requested the conductor to stop at the station named, and seeing he had HO intention of complying, she seized her baggage, stepped out on the platform, and jumped for the ground. As the train was only going per hour, she landed in the immediate neighborhood.

We learn from the Covington Republic that a consolidation of the A. T. H. and the C. & C. R. R. with the Chicago, Danville & Vincennes Railroad has recently been effected, the Covington arm thereof to be called the Southwestern branch, and the Danville and Paris arm to be called the Southern branch, both to be called the Chicago & Vincennes Railroad. Brazil, in Clay county, is the termination of the Covington branch, via Montezuma, thence running up the valley of Raccoon creek, which is said to present all admirable grade for a coal road. This road will bring Covington out of the kinks and no mistake.

There is still war existing between the Union Depot ticket office and the one controlled by Powell and Newby, says the Sentinel. On Saturday a passenger after having purchased from tlie latter over the Junction and Baltimore & Ohio railways, applied at the depot baggage rooms to have his trunks checked. The baggage master refused to check until the passenger had his ticket stamped by the depot office. The passenger went across to the office and returned with the ticket so thoroughly stamped that the oldest men in the railway business would hardly recognize it. This was done so as to entirely obliterate P. & N.'s office stamp, and was an eminent success in that resspect.

Discussion concerning th? enlargement or rebuilding of the Union Depot seems to have entirely died away. A prominent citizen on Saturday expressed the belief that the Pennsylvania Central would never consent to the proposed enlargement, and that sooner or later the President of this corporation would take the three roads owned by him, i. e., the Jeffersonville, Pan Handle and Vincennes, and build a depot for their use exclusively. Such a thing would be regretted. Indianapolis is famed throughout the United States because of the convenience of her railway system for it is the only city in the United States where from one central point, the traveler can take a train for any quarter of the glove. Large bodies move slowly, and the Pennsylvania Central corporation is not an exception to the general rule. The project of increasing the Union Depot facilities of this city is beiug digested by the Board, and some time, if faith will only keep up, they will move in the matter.

That Calumet Dam.

The Calumet dam, which for years has been the production of so much damning by those who owned property in this State, overflowed by reason of this obstruction to the free flow ot water, is to be removed.

On Saturday Governor Baker received from Governor Palmer, of Illinois, a letter transmitting a copy ot a joint resolution passed by the General Assembly of that State in relation to the Calumet dam. We give below a copy of the resolution

WHEREAS, The completion ot the deep cut in the Illinois fe Michigan Canal obviates the necessity of continuing the dam which has heretofore made the Calumet river a feeder to said canal and

Clerk of the House ot Representatives. So says the Indianapolis Journal. The patient and long-suffering people of Porter and Lake counties are at last to be relieved of the presence of the eleements which for years lias inundated much of their rich and otherwise productive soil, in order that the Illinois & Michigan Canal could be supplied with water, by which the commercial prosperity of Illinois was advanced, and that of Iudiana was not. This is but justice to the above hitherto uufortunate counties of our State,, and we are pleased that the Chief Executive and Legislature of Illinois, in General Assembly, have had the manhood, bouor and sense of the right to acknowledge the justice, and accede to the prayers of their brethren of Indiana.

Eg^s, Buttef and Poultry.

For the following items of trade, we are indebted to Mr. George H. Purdy, a prominent dealer it? country produce and

groceries, at Nos. 40 and 42, Main street, who pays at all times the highest cash price for turkeys, chickens, ducks, butter, eggs, rags, old iron, etc. Estimated shipments since January 1st, 1872, embrace about 400 packages of eggs, averaging 70 doz. each, or 28,000 dozen in all. The barrels and tierces are shipped east, to the New York market boxes and other packages to Memphis, and the southern trade. Of the live poultry shipped are 475 geese, and 421 ducks. In order that our agricultural readers may be perfectly posted, we add the market rates which Mr. Purdy is paying to-day: eggs 14ic butter 10 to 20c live chickens, old, 32.75 to 3.00 per doz. ditto young $1.00 to 2.50 per doz. live turkeys 8c per pound live geese $5.00 to 5.50 per doz. ducks $2.00 to 2.10 live geese feathers 55c per pound tallow 7c rags 3c beeswax 25c ginseng 50c dried peaches 7 to 9c dried apples 4 to 6c, old copper 12£c old brass 8c wrought iron $1 25 per hundred cast iron $1.10 sheep pelts $1.00 to 3.00 each potatoes $1.00 to 1.10 per bushel navey beans $2.00 to 2.25 corn 40c oats 35c hay $20.00 per tun. While the establishment of our friend Purdy offers superior inducements to agriculturists and produce dealers, its claims are worthy the attention of city buyers, to whose patronage it is cheerfully commended. Mr. P. makes it a speciality to keep that family desideratum, choice table butter, on hand.

New Route East.

A Vincennes correspondent of the Indianapolis Journal, of-this morning says that "We learn from headquarters that the St. Louis & Indianapolis Railroad via Alton, are making arrangements with the 'Bee Line' to run a through train of cars from St. Louis to New York city, over the New York Central. The 'Bee Line' is quite a popular one for the East for passengers from here and Evausville. Also passengers are accommodated who desire to go to Dayton and Xenia, Ohio, by the 'Bee Line' as they now

have direct without compelling passengers .to re main over an hour or two at Richmond. Uutil recently, passengers had to leave Indianapolis as early as four o'clock in the morning, in order to go direcly through if they desired to go to Xenia evening traiu compelled them to remain

Hon. B. W. Hanna is a gentleman whom we all, of every political shade, respect and honor, lor his many noble qualities of head and heart. The simple fact of a lawyer, bearing a similar name, having vented a tirade of abuse against our race, professional argument before one of our courts some years ago, has given rise to all of this disagreeable business.

We are pleased to learn that the Irish societies entertain no such feeling toward our Mr. Hanna, for we know him to be the friend of the Irishmen. 'V

That Blundering Protest.

Saturday morning's Indianapolis Journal contains the following: The Emmett Guards, at a meeting last night, strongly protested against the action of their committee in securing the services of the Hon. Baj'less W. Hanna, as orator on the approaching anniversary of St. Patrick's day.

We noticed the statement Saturday, and thought there must be some mistake about it,because we saw Mr. Hanna about noon and he had not received any iutimation of such action. This morning's Sentinel contains a card in which Mr. E. F. Hart, Chairman of the Committee, explains the whole transaction, in which explanation it appears that the guards blunderingly mistook Bayless foranother Hanna. Among many things, Chairman Hart, of the Committee on speeches, says:

The Dayton Tragedy.

At last he roused his wife, and with frantic gesticulations accused her of being a witch who was in league with the devil to effect his eternal damnation, and that she had tried to kill him. In this assertion his eldest daughter concurred, aud even accused her mother of the most vile practices. She said she had often seen her talking with a large black dog, which always vanished into the earth on her approach this dog was of course the devil. At other times she had watched an effSrmous horse-fly creep over her mother's ,face, and which she never brushed away, aud which would presently fly over to her (the daughter) and alight on her foreheaa. At such times she felt the devil enter into her, and she did not know what to do—"she felt like flying." The poor woman was terrified beyond measure, but she feared there might be some truth in what her husband and daughter said. She was not afraid of her husband, but she shared his dread of the devil, and then all three knelt down and prayed that the evil might be removed far from them.
