Additional Local Xcws.

MARSHAL WUNDEKLICH left for Terre Haute yesterday evening, havinc official business iu that vicinity.—Evansville Journal.

ROBERT DUNCAN, ESQ., left for Connecticut last night. This, we believe, is the first time he has been out of town for fifteen years.—Ind. Sentinel.

THE NOW York Republican Convention instructs for Grant.—Express. And the Democratic Convention instructs for Greeley and Gratz.

N. M. MCDOWELL, the Chief Engineer, returned from Cincinnati this morning. He reports the work on the C. &*^T. H. R. R. as progressing rapidly on the east end between Greensburg and Columbus.

Mr. A. B. FELSENTIIAL, recently a citizen of Terre Haute, is about to take up his residence in Fort Wayne, and intends practicing law iu partnership with Louis Neubercer, Esq., of this city.—IY. Wat/nc Gazette.

JUDGE TARKTNGTON will leave in a few days for California, taking his wife and family to spend the summer with Gov. Booth, who is Mrs. Tarkington's brother. The Judge will return in a few weeks.—Ind. Journal.

THERE will be an express wagon at the Asbury Church structure to convey baskets for picnicers to the T. H. & C. R. R. depot Saturday morning, on the occasion of the Ceutenary and Asbury union picnic.

No MORE amusements booked for the Opera House until the 24th. Duprez & Benedict's Minstrels will then and there open for one night only. They have been here this season once, previous to this proposed visit, aud are well and favorably known by the amusemeut patronizing public.

CRAWFORD, O'BOYLE & Co., the wholesale boot and shoe firm, have their room entirely finished, aud it presents very nice appearance, and is well filled with an enormous stock. They report a good trade. This establishment is a credit to the city, aud will add much to the wholesale trade.

MR. A. B. STONER is a lucky man and a happy man he drew $500 from the German Money and Loan Association, of which he is a member. A new house and a lucky draw is a streak of good fortune only to b% equalled by another piece of good fortune he will experience when he becomes a Benedict.

WE wish it distinctly understood that the clerks of the Criminal Court are not responsible for the itemsof criminal news which daily appear in the GAZETTE. Messrs. Hollinger and Black do not furnish them to us. If the parties don't want their names published^ they must keep out of the Criminal Court or assassinate the GAZETTE detectives or what is still better, obey the law.

SATURDAY, let it be remembered, the much talked of first picnic of the season, will occur at Groeudyke's Grove, oue of the most favorable localities for such festivities of which anything is known here. It is situated on the liue of the Terre Haute & Chicago Railroad, over which line a plentiful supply of elegant poaches have been secured to accommo date the masses, most comfortably. The train will be acoompaoied by Superintendent Nesbitt, and probably President Col lett, who will look especially to the interests of their guests. See local notioe poiuuins for particulars and prices,

THE Journal wants the political editor of the GAZETTE instructed in orthography and grammar that Edmunds may the better arrive at the meaning of his writings and the Journal alludes to the LaFayette Dispatch as having always been a poor and decrepid newspaper. Tn conveying the same sentiment, as evidently intended by Mr. Edmunds in this connection, Mr. Xoah Webster would have characterized the Dispatch a decrepit newspaper. But learned linguists ever have, and doubtless ever will, differ.

MAJOR SIMPSON, of the Vandalia, yesterday telegraphed Mr. Ogdeu that he should leave St. Louis in the evening. Tt is understood that all the railroad magnates attending the Time Table Convention would leave at the same time, those from the East arriving here this morning. It is reported that the session was a stormy one, caused by a proposition of the Bee Line people to arrange their table so as to shorten their time four hours between Cincinnati and New York. Bitter opposition is offered, and the result is awaited with considerable anxiety among railroad -men.—Indianapolis Journal.

THE grammatical editor of the Journal had the hardihood to publish the following in this morning's issue of that sheet.

IftheGAZKTTE wants us to notice the foolish gibberish of its political editor, the publishers must learn him to use the English language properly and to spell correctly. We have no time to spare in deciphering the meaning of such an ignoramus.

Now, this criticism of onr Bourbon friend would sound much better were his own gammar not at fault. But he uses the intransitive verb, "learn," instead of the transitive, "teach!"

THE New York Sun, in referring editorially to the evasive anti-'possum dispatch of the Honorable Daniel Washington Voorhees to James Bourbon Edmunds, thinks that Mr. V. never intended that it should go before the world, or he would not have sent it to an obscure rural editor. That "rural rooster" accomplished the object of giving it publication, however, by handing it to the agent of the Associated Press. Such is fame and a great name in an ungrateful country.

THE name of the Knights of Pythias has been changed to Pythian Knights. The organization is in a flourishing condition in this city at present, and intends to prosper in a rapidly increasing ratio. The Local Lodge meets in the Large Lodge room, Gilbert's block, each Monday evening. Being a splendid order, we are pleased to see it so prosperous.

C. J. BRACKERUSH has been among us but a short time but iu that time he has transacted an immense amount of business in real e3tate and insurance, thus proving himself a first-class business man and wide-awake to the rapidly growing interests of Terre Haute aud the West. In our columns to-day will be found a cbangfe in his advertisements of real estate aud insilrance.

FRANCISCO, the gentleman who didn't purchase the newspapers of Terre Haute, was iu Fort Wayne a few days since. Wonder if he will not purchase the Gazette, Sentinel and Journal of that city and consolidate them in one mammoth aud magnificent metropolitan publication on the pretentious basis of the Chicago Inter- Ocean!

THEHOU. H. D.Scott has been appointed ad mi narrator of the. estate of Augustus L. and Mrs. Chamberlain. Mrs. C. was the adminstratrix of her husband's estate during her lifetime after his decease, but died herself a few mouths since, leaving the estate in a measure, unsettled. Mr. Scott is appointed to make the final settlement.

The Sentiment in Coles County Illinois. MATTOON, III., May 13. To the Editor of the Chicago^ Tribune:

SIR: There is one thing manifestly true of our locality, and that is, that Horace Greeley has friends here—friends too, who will defend his cause, or rather, the cause of which he is the distinguished and worthy leader. The Grant men are puzzled. They had made up their minds to have an easy fight with Davis. True, Davis was a good man but he did not reach the hearts of the old-line Republicans as Greeley does. There has been no regular organization here yet but a ^careful survey of the field induces the Greeley men to think that, they can carry this city and county next fall. Oue thiug is curious to note: It is generally the old, original Republicans that go for Greeley. The young fledglings, the new converts, those that came into the party and asked office as soon as they were warm in the Republican nest, or perhaps made it a condition precedent to their coming iutoour camp —all these are for Grant, aud regard treason to Morton, Conkliug tfr Co., as treasou to the Republican party and to the country.

The Mattoon Commercial (Democratic) is out for Greeley aud Brown, "subject to the decision ot the people," and not subject to what auy convention says. Our leading Democrats, such as the Hon. O. B. Ficklin, are hearty in their support of the ticket.

You may count on a warm fight in this county, but I think success is not doubtful. JOHN CUNNINGHAM.

THE result of the first day's ballot for United States Senator in Connecticut indicates the» progress of the Cincinnati movement. Mr. Ferry, the present Seuator, has made himself obnoxious to the Administration because of his independence—voting for investigations, voting against San Domingo, aud generally opposing the caucus cabals. General Hawley, a delegate to the Philadelphia Convention, was selected to succeed him. There was a strong protest against the dismissal of Mr. Ferry, but the party in power shouted "Crucify him!" The result was, that over thirty Republicans refused to attend the Legislative caucus, and determined to vote for Mr. Ferry. The Democratic members who support Mr. Greeley united with the Republican supporters of Mr. Ferry, and the result yesterday indicates that he will be elected to-day in joint ballot by possibly ten majority. This result further shows that executive dictation will always meet with a prompt rebuke. There is no ques tion now that Mr. Greeley will carry Connecticut in November by a greater majority than has been obtained by any candidate in that State for maojr years.

LONDON, May 16.—The claims of the United States against Great Britain, as filed by the American Commissioners before the Geneva Conference, estimates the entire direct damages resulting from depredations on American commerce and shipping by the Confederate cruisers, fitted out in the British ports, at nineteen million dollars, inclusive of the six mil lion dollars claim in respect of damages inflicted by the Shenandoah.

The Globe, this morning, contains an editorial on the subject, which poiuts out that the log kept by the Captain of the Shenandoah, from which it publishes the Captain's extracts, shows that prize money was assessed on $1,000,000 only, instead of $6,000,000, as down in the American case.

NEW YORK, May 16.—Yesterday morning, the barn, stables and ice house belonging to Hon. Robert Cristie, on Clifton Island, burned with their contents. Loss $5,000 no insurance.

Notwithstanding the efforts of the detice force Herrick, who shot Phelps, the jeweler, is still at large. Phelps is now considered out of danger.

Commissioner Van Nort is out of danger, but will be unable to resume his duties for some time.

NEW YORK, May 16.—The Tribune's Washington special says: Gen. Lew Wallace, who was President of the Buell Court of Inquiry, was examined yesterday by the House Committee on Military Affairs, about the loss of the record of the court. The evidence threw no light upon the mystery.

It is said Voorhees intends making another explanation about his political views.

NEW YORK, May 16.—A member has prepared a bill, which he intends to offer in the House, iu case the treaty fails, providing a way of recovering the Alabama claims.

In the Senate the Committee on Apportionments, some of the members being absent, voted to report an amendment to the appropriation of a bill repealing the ninth section army apportionment bill, approved March 8th, 1872, directing the Secretary of the Treasury to pay over in money to the Pacific Railroad Company one-half of the compensation, provided by law for services heretofore or hereafter rendered.

NEW YORK, May 16.—The Chamber of Commerce, at a special meeting yesterday, considered the supplemental article to the Washington treaty. Resolutions were adopted earnestly recommending the adoption of the supplemental article, and praying the Senate to ratify it. A memorial to the Senate expressing the conviction that the interests of the country demand the supplemental article to the treaty was then signed by all the members of the Chamber, and it Svill be forwarded to Washington without delay.

A special dispatch "from Bangor, Me., says the Republican District Convention, for the nomination of two delegates to the Philadelphia Convention, met there yesterday. There was a small attendance. E. C. Brett and J. H. Hussey were chosen delegates. A conference of the Democratic State Committee was held at Bangor yesterday,and it is understood the decision was unanimous in support of Greeley.

NEW YORK, May 16.—The address of the Liberal Republican State Committee to the Liberal Republicans of the State of New York, published this morning, reviews the acts of the present administration, the history of which it terms a shadowy record of discreditable acts, many of them blunders and, others crimes. It accuses the President of transcending the limitations of Jthe Constitution introducing Federal influence into local affairs defeatiug civil service reform putting his own relative parasites in the ports of customs fostering in the North a temper of bitterness and resentiment towards the South conniving at and sustaining alien and rotten governments in the Southern States habitually stifling investigation, committing innumerable acts of nepotism in accepting gifts from lotteries aud bestowing public emoluments in return iu shorty administering his high offices as private estate or property.

The address also states that the people, pot the President, are paying the public debt Congress, uot the Executive, has lightened the burnens of the people. It asks, has he settle*! the Alabama claims? Has he made peace with the Indians?

Has

he given prosperity to the South? It then announces freely, the principles of the Cincinnati Convention, and concludes by inviting all to join in the reform movement at once, and organize for action. The addresrf is signed by John Cochran, Chairman, and a full qoorum of the committee.

WASHINGTON, May 16.—In the Senate the Baltimore & Potomac Railroad depot bill was passed without amendment. Mr. Morrill caused some laughter by moving for the appointment of a com g?|tt§£ of two to wait on Thomas Scott

and ask him if he had any further communication to make to the Senate. ROCHESTER, N. Y., May 16.—The Democratic State Convention reassembled 10:15. It was called to order and the report of the Committee on Delegates read, recommending the appointment of the following delegates at large: Hon. John T. Hoffman, Delas Dewit, Senator H. C. Murphy and Jarvis Lord. There was immense cheering at each name. The recommendation was unanimously adopted. Two alternates were also appointed from each Congressional District. A motion to return thanks to the presiding officers was unanimously carried. After which, the convention adjourned sine die.

DES MOINES, IOWA, May 16.—The Iowa Democratic State Central Committee held a session in this city yesterday. It is understood that they issued a call for a Democratic State Convention to be held in this city on the 12th of June, for the purpose of selecting tweuty delegates to the National Democratic Convention. They refused to allow the papers in this city to copy the official call. It is reported that the committee are about equally divided, half in favor of Greeley and half in favor of the regular Dsmocratic nominee. Each side .of the question had a strong lobby of members here, and the committee were compelled to hold a secret session to prevent a public exhibition and trouble.

CHICAGO, May 16.—A disgraceful scene took place last night at a circus called the Great Eastern, which had just opened. Every seat was sold, but the manager continued selling tickets and the crowd kept on trying to force their way in. The ring was broken into and the performance stopped. The crowd still poured in and there was imminent danger of a riot. Finally, the performance was abruptly concluded, the crowd having possession of the entire ring. The managers are to blame for selling tickets without regard to thecapicity of the canis.

Much satisfaction is expressed over the resolutions passed yesterday by the workingmen's procession, that the mechanics of Chicago are willing in all future disputes with employers to submit' their grievances to aboard of arbitration, one-half to be selected by the employers and the other half by the workmen. The other resolutions, favoring co-opera-tion and deprecating violence to secure demands, are also very good, aud will remove all anticipation of strikes. The speeches by Mayor Madill and some of the workmen were temperate and excellent.

DETROIT, May 16.—A telegram from Portage Lake mining district reports the strike as- practically over, the miners at the Schoolcraft, Berwick and Franklin mines having resumed work. Troops have reached Houghton.

The annual session of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian church of the United States convenes here this morning, and opens with a sermon by Dr. Z. R. Humphreys, the retiring moderator.

NASHVILLE, TENN., May 16.—The city continues in the wildest confusion. All trains arriving are crowded to standing room with visitors to the Industrial Exposition and other attractions now going here. The hotels have all been so crowded for a week that the guests have to sleep on the floors and on chairs.

Last night, Clarence Lewis, a lad seven years old, a son of Dr. C. L. Lewis, this city, was kicked by a horse and killed almost instantly.

Allen, little son of Rev. A. H. Redford, had nis arm badly cut while endeavoring to make his way out of the crowd at the Exposition, by a brutal negro, who held a large knife as if to prevent the^child from passing out of the crowd. The leaders of the boys wrist were severed and hi* hand ruined.

CINCINNATI, May 16.—Win. Garver, during a quarrel with Henry Wolf, some weeks ago, struck him with a hatchet. Wolf died from the effect of the injuries a day or two since. Garner was committed to jail to-day to answer the charge of murder.

MEMPHIS, May 16.—A large safe in the office of the Chiet of Police, was broken open last night, and a number of gold aud silver watches, diamonds, aud a considerable amount of money were stolen.

CININNATI, May 16.—Caroline Bolmer, handsome young German woman, twenty-five years old, on her way from Barnes, Austria, to Junction City, Kansas, to join her lover, to whom she was to have been married on her arrival, died suddenly at the Western Hotel to-day, from throat disease.

FULTONVILLE, N. Y., May 16.—The break in the Erie Canal, which occurred near here last week, is now almost entirely repaired. Navigation will be resumed to-morrow.

Voorliees on the War Path. Dan Voorhees has made his splurge. A greater man than Dan once stood upon the seashore and bade the wave not roll upon his feet, but the waves rolled on just the same. The "Tall Sycamore of the Wabash," the name Daniel wears when he puts on his war-paint, declares he won't vote for Greeley he is no such person his Democracy comes to him through a long ancestral line, and he will be a satrap to no Horace Greeley he prefers association with such hightoned Democrats as Morton and Grant. He is a Democrat of the Jackson type, hence will, in the coming campaign, champion the Secor claims and the Chorpenning allowance, those noble instances of administration by those noble Democrats, Robinson and Creswell. The Tail Sycamore may break, but he will never "bend he has devoted his life to a fight against Protection, and, therefore, will not vote for Horace Greeley. On the contrary^-he will take bis stand in__tbttt brilliant array of Free-Traders, Kelley, Maynard and Boutwell. He will not vote for Horace Greeley, but enlists under the banner of Grant, bearing that old familiar legend of Jeflereonian Democracy, "The civil authority always subordinate-to tbe military." How he will arouse the fervor of the Democracy of Indiana by telling them that the President may rightfully march bte troops into to aup

press the Ku-Klux, overturn the State government, shut up the civil courts, suspend the habeas corpus, and administer the government, State and municipal, through Captains and Colonels.

The Chicago Tribune from the first has predicted that, in the breaking up of parties which no longer have any vital principles, aud the formation of new ones based upon living issues, a certain class of Democrats would at once unite with that faction which was in possession of the spoils. The first recruit is Mosby, the Virginia guerrilla. The next is the Tall Sycamore of the Wabash, who proposes to stump Pennsylvania in company with Simon Cameron andD.

J. Mor-

rell, to put down that arch-Protectionist, Horace Greeley. He announces his purpose of going South and convincing the Democracy in that region that Horace Greelev compelled the Republicans of both Houses of Congress to pass all the Ku Klux and other oppressive legislalation, and that, had it not been that Horace Greeley advocated general amnesty, Congress would long since have passed such an act. Mr. Voorhees will »ot be alone. The Cincinnati Convention smashed a great amount of politcal crockery, Mr. Voorhees' china-set among the rest. Other persons had sold out not only that, but the Baltimore nomination, and now they cau not deliver either to the one or the other. Mr. Greeley has made no contracts or bargains with any persons or factions. He is the people's candidate, who will not be used to promote the aims of any politician. He will, therefore be obnoxious to a very large tribe of professional Democrats, who haug around Washington, and who, for a consideration, are ready to do or say almost anything. We do not apply this remark to Mr. Voorhees, who, in our opinion, is simply exasperated at the failure of bis speculation in Davis stock, and in thfc white heat of his indignation mistakes himself for the Democratic party, or some other political organization. But it is true that the meeting of the Democratic Conven tion has been called at Baltimore, to give the better opportunity for the largest commercial intercourse with Washington. But it will all be in vain. The next President is not to be made at Washington. He has already been named by the people, at home, in their villages, and on their farms. Against this popular resolution the protest of such men as Voorhees is but as a penny-whistle against the whirlwind. It is the first dying speech of along list of small politicians, who have too long burthened the public ear. Exit Voorhees!—Chicago Tribune.

Voorhees' Speech.

The oratorical fire-works set off by Dan. Voorhees yesterday, to the delight of Grant men, have been the subject during the day of constant discussion and remark. But he gets few praises from the Democrats and little encouragement from the Administration members, who, while they listen to such speeches as Voorhees made yesterday, yet regard him as the most impudent demagogue on the floor of the House. So far as the Democrats are concerned, they say that Mr. Voorhees, in attacking Mr. Greeley and supporting General Grant, did perfectly right in saying that he spoke for himself and nobody else. Even some of the conscientious supporters of the Administration, who regard Mr. Voorhees' speech as important, as being likely to disorganize the Democrats, say that it came with poor grace from one who is generally regarded as having been a leading member of the infamous order known during the war as Knights of the Golden Circle, to criticise the loyalty and patriotism of Mr. Greeley at the breaking out of the war. Some of the Grant supporters even admit that they believe the whole thing was arranged beforehand, even to the publication in the Administration organ here of the item upon which Voorhees based his personal explanation, and that both that gentleman aud Secretary Robeson know more about the thing than they are willing to tell. Conversations with the leading Democrats in the House show that out of the one hundred and five members belonging to that party,not more than twenty-five are in favor of the Baltimore Convention making a nomiuation, or against the ratification of the nomination of Greeley and Brown. Of the number are the following, viz.: Voorhees and Kerr, of Indiana Campbell, Lamison and Van Trump, of Ohio McNeil, of Illinois Slater, of Oregon Bird, of New Jersey Acker, of Pennsylvania Young and De Bose, of Georgia Crossland, Winchester and Lewis, of Kentucky. Among the Republican Senators who are known to favor Mr. Greeley's election, are Trumbull, Schurz, Fenton, Tipton, Sprague, Alcorn, Hill, Ferry, of Connecticut, West and Robertson.— Cin. Commercial.

THE Sullivan Democrat thus discusses the new departure of Mr. Voorhees: MB. VOORHEES AS AN ADVISER.

We confess to no Utile astonishment yesterday morning on reading in the telegraphic columns of the morning papers the report of a speech made on Monday by Mr. Voorhees. We have heretofore given him credit for great discretion in his utterances. But a few days ago he telegraphed to his organ at Terre Haute that until tbe National Convention met no man was authorized to commit the party as to its future action but by the expression of his individual sentiments. Iu the case of an humble member of tbe party—a private in the ranks—that expression has but little weight, but when a prominent leader like Mr. V. expresses his views, it has its weight, and carries with it more the semblance of an authoritative expression of party policy. Is not Mr. Voorhees doing the very thing that a few days ago he telegraphed no man had any right to do?

We have good reason to believe that a few weeks ago Mr. V. was in full sympathy with the Liberal movement, and expressed himself as favorable to the nomination of Judge Davis. JSo that now we are to understand that his opposition is of a purely personal nature that he is opposed to Greeley as a candidate, and not to the platform on which he stands, or the circumstances on which he was nominated.

Although Mr. Voorhees' voice is claimed to be "potential" in this district, we presume that now the bar is thrown down, he is willing that others should exercise the same privilege he has himself assumed, and speak their sentiments.

THE Washington correspondent of tbe New York World says: Some of the partisans of Mr. Greeley declare that Mr. Voorhees' speech was all arranged and made in the Administratration interest. But Mr. Voorhees' denial of that story is of course sufficient.
