If some one wants to catch a "bull head," he can drop his hook into the Journal sanctum.

SOME people in tbe city are supremely happy. All Fools' Day is rapidly approaching !—Morning Imbecile.

That editor knows how. it is from experience WE learn that the farmers between Center Point and Ashboro have made a proposition to President McKeen, of the T. H. & I. R. E., to sink at least six coal shafts if he will extend a branch of the road in that direction. We have not learned the result of the proposition.— Brazil Miner.

THE temperance youths of the city are progressive to a degree highly commendable in those of so tender age. They are now arranging for another exhibition, on a large scale this time They wish to secure the Opera House. Hope they may succeed.

Dn. MARTIN GRAY is preparing for an active spr'nc campaign in the Oil of Joy business.—Journal.

What will the Journal do now for motive power. They have been using the Dr. all winter to turn their old press, to grind out the most miserably printed paper in the United States. How are you "run by steam

"SEE advertisement of S. C. Scott, boots and shoes, in the advertising columns of this issue of the Evening CAZETTE. There he tells sote-less people that No. 98 is headquarters for goods in that line of trade. Once at 98 Main street, he will assume the perpendicular and tell you all about it in detail. Give him a call.

MR. LUKE WOODS, one of the drivers of the American Express Company, was taken severely ill this morning at the Vandalia Depot. He was immediately taken home, where a physician examined his case and pronounced his symptoms to the those of small-pox, but •says the disease will develop itself by to-morrow morning.

A CITY teacher who desired to send a oopy of each of the city papers containing a notice of the commencement exercises of the Normal School, to a friend, carefully clipped the "Jenkins' part of the report from the columns of the forenoon Express, and confidentially informed his friend that pity lor the writer induced him to do that much.

"WINTER has broks," says a morning paper—•' broke loose," say Fouts, Hunter & Thompson, who will ship two car loads of horses and mules West this xifternuon, for the Southern market. "All we can do, and more to," is the report from Mr. J, A. Peabody, the North Second street mashinists. "Want more good hands business rushing."

THE telegraph reports extraordinary cold weather up north, which accounts for the frigid condition of things in this latitude— Journal.

You had better move up to that cold country, or buy a load of lime to use as a disiufectaut, for as soon as warm weather comes, your "nasty" old office will stink all your neighbors out. It can't hurt the .editor, for he is used tp &U kinds of filth

SUDDEN DEATH.—Last evening, just prior to the hour of the assembling of the Baptist Social, a lad named Chester Handford, son of the well known painter, oaiue in ftom play quite sick. In a short time he found temporary relief by an emetic. His parents then went to tbe Social. After theirn return their son got worse agaiu and died early this morning. We did not learn his ailment.

THE editor of a cotemporay in answer to a correspondent who furnished a son net entitled, "What shall my love wear?" kindly wrote in response thereto as follows: "Let vour love wear her clothes, some ladies wear a loving smile or a look ot conscious innocence, but something more than this seemed to be required by the rules of decorum."

Could a matter-ot-fact editor have giveu better advice We think not.

THE melancholy lunatic who does the th scribbling and scissoring for the local columns on the Madison Courier always persists in discussing subjects of which he knows nothing from experience. He is now discussing brains.—T. H. Gazette.

Novel Suit.

A novel suit is in progress at Clinton, which grew out of thWollowing circumstances, as near as we can learn tbem: Sometime since a couple of gentlemen of that place came to this city in a wagon and purchased from the Great Hew York City Store of Foster Bros, each a bill of dry goods. The goods were placed in three rolls two rolls for one customer, and one for the other. Thus they were safely deposited in tbe wagon box and and the two Clinton gentlemen started for home. We are informed they imbibed too freely of that which provokes dispute and results in disaster, when en route home. When Clinton was reached the gentleman who only had one "bundle seized upon two. The other demurred. Purchaser of one bundle, possessor of two, insisted that he was proprietor of both. Purchaser of two bundles, poasessor of but one, persisted in having his other bundle, hence his right. From this state of affairs has grown a suit, wherein the victim of the claims of the other brings suit for the recovery of his other bundle. Mr. David N. Foster is now in attendance at the trial as a witness, pursuant to a summons served yesterday.

A MECHANICAL and inventive genius at Circleville, Ohio, has evolued from his fertile brain the form of a«piece of mechanism which he has constructed into something tangible. The Circleville Herald says: "The lightning clock alarm thief detector has just been patented by Thomas N. Howell, of Circleville, Ohio. The alarm will arouse a person at any desired hour in the night, at the same time automatically lighting a lamp connected with the device No burglar can enter a building where it is used without causiug the alarm to be given and the lamp to be lighted. Its construction is novel, simple and cheap."- A very useful iuvention, we should think especially for young folks who dislike to get out of bed in to a cold room to light the lamp. To evade this unpleasant duty the article is alone worth the money.

OUB talented young friend, Joseph W. Bingham, news editor of the Indianapolis Sentinel, has retired from that position and will go to Chicago into the office of a "Fire-Proof Roof" Association, as head clerk. We trust Joseph will find the duties of his new position more remunerative and as well as less laborious, and that in the discharge of the duties of his new position he will have more time to himself. We liked the racy style in which he conducted the newscolumus of the Sentinel, especially the State column, and shall miss him exceedingly. May success attend him, however, wherever he may go and whatever be his vocation In life. "May his shadow never grow less!"

As WILL be seen by reference to our telegraphic columns, G.'Becker, of Terre Haute, was wounded by a railroad accident on the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, neai'Johnstown, Pa. We fear it is Mr. Becker, the clothing merchant, who is east, or was a few days since. It is a very easy .matter to get the names very easy mat er to get me names

RAILROAD MATTERS.

Railroad business is getting lively a^aiu. We regret to learn that Conductor J. Earley, of the Tfcrre Haute & Chicago R. R., has been suffering from the fever and ague.

C. M. Allen, contractor of the Cario & Vincennee road, has about seventy teams and fifty men engaged in the construction of that line, between Vincenues and Mt. Carmel.

Pennsylvania Central Scottififd General Manager McCullou«h are daily expected in the city, and Union Depot enlargement stock accordingly looms up. The gentlemen named are now at Jeffersonville.—Ind. Sentinel.

Geo. Penn, of the Terre

charge of this train

President Collett was aboard, and a teler graph pole waslaid across the track by

some malicious person. Mr. Collett offers $100 for his apprehension or for information that will lead thereto. Such a scoundrel as would attempt thus to destroy human life and property should be punished to the utmost extent of the law or even more summarily dealt with by the executioners of Judge Lynch.

Evening before last an attempt was made to throw the upward bound passenger train on the Jeff, road off the track at a point near Franklin, where the engineers count on making up time by running" fast. A number of cross ties, rails, etc., were piled in the center of the track, and tbe mass bound toge.ther. Happily the eugineer saw the danger, and by quick and powerful application of the atmospheric brake, as well as by reversing, managed to check up. One of the ties was found strongly fastened between the pilot and forward trucks—showing bow close the engine came to going it full tilt against the obstruction. The engineer of this train will hereafter be found an enthusiastic advocate of the patent brake, as, in his opinion, it and nothing else saved his train from wreck and the passengers from loss of life.—

Tnd. Sentinel.

A patent has recently been issued on an iuvention designed to facilitate the loading of freight cars or locomotive tenders, consisting of a box holding a sufficient quantity to load the tender with fuel or the car with freight. The box is pivoted on a frame higher than the tender and car, so as to tilt toward tbe tender and car and the side of the box which swings down is hinged so as

Prof. Emery, of Lima, N. Y., we understand will assume a position in the Normal School, this city, when the ensuing term opens. We learn that it will be in one of the rooms formerly presided over by Miss Fuennelle, who had too much care and responsibility in the discbarge of the duties of that and one other department. While she did both departments justice, she did herself great ojustice.

For loading tenders the box is much smaller than is required for discharging a car load at once into a car, and is arranged in vertical ways. A-hoistibg-drum, and other necessary apparatus for lifting tbe box from the ground to the proper elevation for dis-* charging, is employed but, for loadiug cars, the freight should be as high as the box to be put into it, or it may be carried up by elevators. The frame supporting this loading apparatus ismounted on car wheels to be run along a temporary track, to facilitate the taking of wootl or coal from different positions, and conveying* the load to the proper place for discharging.

Brigliam's. Wives.

Very extravagant statements have been published of the number of Brigham Young's wives and children. How many he has had from the time he courted Miss Martha Brotherton until now, it would be difficult to estimate. Some of his wives are dead others have left him, and many probably have been sealed to him who strayed away like those of Brother Heber, and he knew not whither they went. Of Brigham's present family I am personally acquainted with nineteen'of his wives. Before he was a M5rmon he had a wife and family, but of that lady I know nothing. Two of her daughters are in Utah. His Mormou family begins with his first legal wife, who is still liviug—Mrs. Mary Ann Angel Young. She is probably his own age, but is physically less preserved and looks much older. She is a most excellent and amiable lady, and bears traces of having her full share of earthly troubles. She is the mother of three promising sons, Jos. A. Brigham, Jr. John W., and two daughters—Alice and. Luna. Each of the sons has three wives. The first daughter is the third of four wives in a polygamic household. The other daughter is the first wife.of a young man, and has for a- companion wife her father's daughter by another mother. The eldest daughter, Alice, has also her halfsister its an associ&t© wife in her house-

This debt grew out of the conduct of one of the Japanese princes, in 1864, which resulted in a combined naval expedition against his fortifications, in which American, English, French and Italian vessels were engaged.

The Senate arms investigating Committee held a meeting yesterday and examined Mr. William, the book clerk for Treasurer Spinner, and Secretary Boutwell. Mr. Williams simply explained the method of keeping books in the Treasury, and Secretary Boutwell was only asked one question, %nd answered that had any member of Congress called on him and asked for any expfanation of the apparent discrepancy referred to, he would have received a full explanation.

The Herald's Washington special of the 21st says the select committee to examine into the charges against Secretary Robeson met yesterday. C. A. Dana, of the New York Sun, was present with his counsel, and Secretary Robeson was also present. After a general conversation on the course to be pursued, a resolution was offered by Peters allowing the accuser to produce such witnesses as he may desire to have examined.

The Committee then adjourned till Monday evening. In-the meantime the names of the witnesses will be furnished.

NASHVIIJ.E, TENN., March 22.—A fearful crime was committed at Sbelbyville just before daylight yesterday morning, by gome unknown fiend,

who

entered

the stone warehouse near the depot, and after murdering by cutting in a horrible manner while he was asleep Mr. Michael

-r ^2"

Murphy, blew open the safe and stole several hundred dollars, aud'then set fire to the hay and other combustibles in the warehouse.

The fire spread rapidly and "entirely destroyed the building. It belonged to C. Moorman. It was valued at $6,000 and insured for $2,500.

The charred remains of Mr. Murphy were discovered after the fire. No clue has been discovered to tbe perpetrator.

The depot at Forts Station, on the Edgefield & Kentucky Railroad, was burned at 10 o'clock Wednesday night. It contained a considerable amount of merchandise. Loss about $2,500. The fire was accidental, it is supposed.

ST. PAUL, MINN.., March 22.—Atabout two o'clock yesterday afternoon, two men employed in Robert Howe's quarry in the Fourth Ward, were terribly and fatally injured by the accidental discharge of a blast. It appears that Wilhelm Sevenzki and Fred. Ackerly had drilled out a hole in the ro'ck and put in the powder and fuse. It apparently failed to ignite, and they commenced drilling in the same hole.

By this means the fire was driven into the powder and an explosion followed. The iron drills were thrown upward with such force as to be driven throuph the right side of Wilhelm Sevenzki and between the jaw bone and jugular VRin, causing instant death. Fred. Ackley, the other man injured, had one eye blown out by the explosion and it is feared that pieces of stone have penetrated into the cavity. He is in a very critical condition. Sevenzki leaves a wife and three children in destitute circumstances.
