THIS county is becoming noted for its fine fruits. This is due in a large degree to the efforts of the ladies and gentlemen composing the Vigo Horticultural Society.

MRS JAMES A. MURRAY, of Indianapolis, formerly Miss Sattie Early, of this city, is to participate in the rendering of solos in a concert soon to be given in the Capital city.

J. L. BOID, of Rockville, makes it lively for the Republican editor through the columns of the JPalriot, giving one or two very excelleut illustrations of the gentle "Mac."

THE Rev. James Hill preached Mrs Mary C. Crim's funeral sermon at her late residence, at 2 o'clock to-day. She died of paralysis, only living a few hours after beiug stricken.

TICKETS to the Philadelphia Conven tion will be good until the 25th of June. They will be sold in this city over the Vandalia and the I. & St. L., from the 25th inst., until June't

THE small-pox is on the decrease in this city, and waYm weathet, pre^uqaed t) be not far distant, will doubtless put an end to the pestilence. I-iet the unvac cinated be of good cheer.

WALLACE PAINE, Foster Brothers' head clerk, has a Greeley hat, though he is so altitudinous, it is almost impossible to distinguish the size, color and shape of the tile when worn.

MANAGES NORCROSS, of the Western Union telegraph, has his office fitted up in elegant style, since moving into his new quarters. Three operators are employed on thirteen connections.

WE regret to learn that Michael An. drew, the six years old 9on of M, W. and Ann O'Connel, is dead, and will be buried from the family residence at 2 o'clock topionruw, See regular aQBoyncerosut.

Suspicious Looking Bottle. We called at Commissioner Blake's this noon, because we observed Mr. C. in the act of examining a bottle filled with some kind of a liquid, the nature of which we only suspected. Entering the office, we were courteously received and offered a "swig" from the bottle, which, on a close inspection of the contents of the same, we firmly though gratefully and thankfully declined. Mr. B. then poured some of the fluid out in an inverted goblet, and lighted it. The article burned, creating a brilliant light, emiting an unmistak able oleaginous odor. It was petroleum from the Poor Farm artesian well, and was taken out by passing a rag down into the well a couple of feet and allowing it to absorb the oil, drawing it up and squeezing out the same.

Mr. Bobert Cox requested Mr. Blake to have a gallon thus taken out for the purpose of testing its quality, hazarding the opinion that the article is unlike that of any other well in this vicinity.

"THE GREAT MASTODON" COMING.— Not the veritable moving mountain of flesh, which "lived, and loved, and died" ages before Adam was born to give it a uame, and whose fossilized bones and delicate little grinders are occasionally discovered by delighted old rock-pound-ers iu retired potato patches, but its prototype of the present day, in the grand Caravan, Menagerie, Museum, Hippodrome and Bodouin Arab Troupe adapting its name and which we are officially notified will pitch its city of tents here on July 4. This great exhibition, or rather combination of exhibitions, is meeting with immense success and giving most excellent satisfaction in its onward march and, as the bills say, we advise our wonder and f'in-loving readers to "keep their eye on the date" of its coming.

MIKE MACKEY, from the National House Saloon, this city, will represent Vigo county at the great billiard tournament for the championship of the State of Indiana and a prize badge with magnificent solitairediamond setting, valued at $150. The second and third prizes are a $l'00 gold watch and $50 iu greenbacks. These latter inducements are naught to Mackey, who will only exert himself to secure the badge. Six competitors are already announced, including Garret, the present champion, and Alieu. The match will commence at the city of Indianapolis, May 27. A number of our sports will attend to hol&Maekey's coat and hat while playing, then to transport him home in a gorgeous pallanquin,with a crown upon his head and a cue in his hand.

THE patriotic and free American citizens of this great city and surrounding country are to have an oportunity to celebrate the birth of our National Independence, on the Fourth of July, in oldfashioned style. Several gentlemen of this city propose to charter a train of the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad, to run to and from Lockport during the entire day, to convey passengers to that important place, where noted speakers will address the assembly, and impassioned youths will make the day hideous with crackers and torpedoes.

THE Worthington Times states, on rumor, that the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad Company intend laying out and building a great city at Farmers' Station, seven miies east of this place, and calling it Bessemer. It will contain about 3,000 acres of ground, and everything connected with it will be of modern style. They are going to put up works for the manufacture of Bessemer steel, together with blast furnaces, founderies, maehine shops, glass works,water works, and a park.

THE latest style of collars is called the Grand Duke, and is of the stauding variety. The manufacturer claims that the corners have been knocked down by the identical club with which the Grand Duke slaughtered that buffalo calf, when held by the caudal appendage by the heroic Custar. The evidence is strong against the wearer, however, that he smashed the corners by running against a lamp post when "retiring from business so early in the morning," you know.

THE Journal of this morning contaius the following incomprehensible paragraph

A youns man of our acquaintance who, within the last few days seems to have lost his last Iriend on earth, may be heard from early dawn till the late watch at night plaintively singing:

I want to be a stenographer. And with the stenographer's stand, A great big heap of brains in my forehead,

A dead-head tick within my hand.

Will the writer name the friendless youngster?

GRKKLEY, in his letter of acceptance, gets the great rebellion refined down to "a convulsion."—Express.

Why do not you, and your good friend the Journal, publish Mr. Greeley's letter of acceptance But we suppose it will suit your readers if they get it in the next two months, for then it will be about as early as they generally get important news, if they look alone to the columns of the Express and Journal for it.

NICOLSON PAVEMENT.—There is a movement being prosecuted to lay what is known as the "Nicolson pavement" on Main street. Many of the property holders along this street have already signed a petition to that effect, and the movement meets with much favor.

Of course no one can object to such a desirable improvement in our city, if the men who own the property favor it.

THE managers of the Groendy ke Grove picnic hereby return their sincere thanks to the musicians of yesterday, who did so much to contribute to the general enjoyment of the occasion. These thanks are tendered specifically to Toute's Band and the ladies and gentlemen of the choirs of Centenary and Asbury p))urcb£s

OFFICER STEWART is mad. This because people will let their hogs run at large in the streets. He swears that his terrier will annihilate the marauding porcines if their owners don't keep them out of the streets.

A PICNIC of Sunday school workers was had at Clem's Grove yesterday. The Hon. John P. Baird, I. N. Pierce, E. P. Beauchamp, Samuel Royse, and other distinguished workers in the cause from this city. The occasion was one of great piety.

COL. DOWLING, of this city, goes to New York and other Eastern cities, on business connected with the construction of blast furnaces and rolling mills in Terre Haute, on the old Linton Square. A better representative could not have been secured.

THE Cincinnati Gazette states, editorially, that manufactures of that city have contrated for Indiana coal, to be delivered next winter, at eleven cents per bushel. Cincinnati will thus get her coal six cents per bushel cheaper than we pay for it.— Ind. Eve. Journal.

And Terre Haute gets coal for eight cents for the same purpose.

THE following gentleman furnish teams for the free use of the committees on Decoration Day, several four-horse teams inclusive J. Schell, U. Shewmaker, A. Stepp, J. Kelly, J. Merry, Neil Smock, Fouts& Hunter, Levi Chadwick, Tom. Gist, John Dustin, R. N. Shepperd, Tom. Cochran, Gordon Lee, Jacob Voorhees and D. Hurst.

DANIEL having recently written a dispatch, made a personal explanation, written a letter in explanation of that explanation, has come home to tell his constituency all about it. When he has discharged that duty, it will be in order for him to envelop his symmetrical proportions in sack-cloth and ashes, for the hour of pennance is uo further off than the date of the Baltimore Convention.

Decrce of Sal6 of the Indianapolis and Cincinnati Junction Kailroad. At the November term, 1871, of the United States Circuit Court for the District of Indiana, a suit was instituted against the Indianapolis and Cincinnati Junction Railroad Company by Morris K. Jessup and J. F. D. Lanier, of New York City, trustees, for the foreclosure of the first mortgage bonds of the road, amounting to $1,200,000, and for the recovery of from $75,000 to $100,000 of interest past due thereon. At the same time a second suit was brought in the same Court against the Company by John C. Butler and Foote, trustees, foa foreclosure of the second mortgage bonds, $800,000, ond for $150,000 of interest past due on the same.

At the time these suits were brought, the road was in charge of W. D. Griswold, Esq., as receiver, the Company having been adjudicated bankrupt. During the term the suits were consolidated, and further proceedings were continued until the present term of Court. The cause was brought to a hearing yesterday before Hon. Judge David Davis, resulting in a decree for the sale of the road by W. D. Griswold, Receiver, who is instructed to make a return of the proceeds of the sale into court for distribution. It is expected that final proceedings iu the matter will be had to-day by the filing of all additional necessary papers perfecting the decree.—Ind. Sentinel.

Special Dispatch to the Indianapolis Journal.

Death of Mayor Baker, of Eyansville. EVANSVILLE, IND, May 23.—Hon. William Baker, Mayor of this city, died at half-past six this evening. He has been a prominent and useful citizen for many years, having been five times elected Mayor, and was serving his eleventh year at the time of his death. He was the elder brother of Gov. Conrad Baker, of this State, was a native of Franklin county, Pennsylvania, and was in his 60th year. Business will probably be suspended during his funeral, which takes place Saturday afternoon.

Political.

The citizens of the Sixth District of New Orleans have formed a Greeley Campaign Club—Wm. G. MoConnell being chosen President.

The Hon. W. N. Blair, ex-State Se tor in New Hampshire, a prominent Republican politician, died at Compton on Saturday last.

A gentleman in Memphis has made a bet of $500—money up—that the Greeley ticket will carry the following States: Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri, Indiana, Pennsylvania, New York, Delaware, Maryland, Nevada and California, makiug more than a majority of the electoral votes. He also-offers to bet that the Greeley ticket will take Nebraska, Oregon, Ohio, and West Virginia.

THE New Orleans Republican says: The enthusiasm which is attending the formation of Liberal Republican Clubs throughout the city, gives complete assurance that the Cincinnati nominees are without a rival in the affections of the people. The day for military rule has gone by, aud the public is tired of being threatened with martial law upon the occasion of every local disturbance which the civil authority is amply sufficient to redress and suppress.

Says the Louisville Courier-Journal The indications are, that the delegations to the Baltimore Convention from the Southern Slates will be a unit for the endorsement of Greeley. There the people too fully realize the importanceof Grant's defeat for them to hesitate.

The Hon. R. P. C. Wilson, ex-Speaker of the Missouri House of Representatives, is a prominent candidate among the Liberals for Governor.

Mr. Greeley's Letter of Acceptance. We publish to-day the letter of Mr. Greeley accepting the nomination tendered him by the Liberal Republican Convention. Whatever may be said in relation to Mr. Greeley's past course however much the Democracy may have disagreed with him in relation to the policy of the Government, none can doubt that this letter breathes a patriotic devotion to the entire country, aud is an offeriug of peace and good will that will do more to bind up the wounded parts of our great couutry than a hundred years of such a policy as has marked and is now pursued by Mr. Grant and his leaders. Nor is it a sudden turning to the side ot mercy, for the sake of the tempting bait proffered him by the Liberal Convention, but it is the deliberate convictions of his mind, long since expressed in words and deeds. The letter is bold and decisive, cutting loose from all party affiliations and declaring for the common good, and will attract attention from all parties and in all sections for its many and patriotic sentiment*.—Chicago TH-.

LONDON, May 24.—The steamship Baltimore, which collided with an unknown vessel on Wednesday night, and was run aground on Hastings beach, has been got off the rocks, and is now afloat. The injuries sustained by the Baltimore have been repaired, the water having been pumped out and the hole in her bow stopped up,with portion of the cargo still remaining in the hold. It is probable that she will able to proceed to Bremen to-morrow.

PARIS, May 24.—A stormy scene occurred in the Assembly yesterday on M. Gambetta being accused by a prominent member present, of malignity toward the late Emperor Maximilian. Gambetta denied the censure, and said both Maximilian and Princess Carlotta, his wife, were victims of the Empire, and that to it alone was attributable the misfortunes of their house.

M. Henri Rochefort and a number of other convicts have sailed for New Caledonia, in accordance with the sentence of the government, transporting them to that colony.

NEW YORK, May 24.—Among the first of distinguished arrivals at Long Brauch, this season, is John Harper, who arrived from Lexington, Ky., Wednesday, with his famous stable of horses, consisting of Longfellow, Suttleton, Express, Platina, Extract and Bay Filly. McGrath's stable from Lexington, consisting of several well known horses, arrived at the Branch yesterday. The arrival of Longfellow at Monmouth Park, will now add additional spirit to the betting on the result of the Monmouth cup, which will be run for on Tuesday, July 2d, the latest bettng on which was at the rate of $100 to $70 on Harry Bassett. Longfellow is so well spoken of by parties just f'om Lexington, that betting no doubt will be even on them before the meeting.

NEW YORK, May 24.—The Tribune's Washington special says, it is probable the House will take no action upon the Ku-Klux bill. A number of Republicans are opposed to it and declare they will vote against it. A large number regard the measure as a great political blunder and will oppose taking it up for action, but at the same time they say that if it should come to a direct vote and should be pressed as a party measure, the might feel compelled to vote for it.

Democrats are inclined to oppose the motion to suspend the rules for the purpose of bringing the bill before the House. If they are assured, however, that fifteen or twenty Republicans will vote with them to lay the bill on the table, they will make no objection to taking it up.

The Committee on Military Affairs are still hunting for the lost Buell records. Most of the clerks and messengers in the War Departmeut have been examined. Adjutant General Townsend was recalled yesterday for examination, it is reported, as to the general condition of other records and particulars as to the alleged mutilation of the headquarters letter books of the army of the Potomac. The Committee expect to complete the investigation in time to make a written report before the session closes.

The city wMle alive with meetings to-night, and next week demonstrations and mass meetings will be the order of the clay. The car builders employed in the various shops of the city railroads have decided to join the movement, aud it is expected the coach builders will soon follow.

NEW YORK, May 24.—The World thi* morning, in discussing Greeley's strength as Presidential candidate, thinks it highly improbable that he will carry any one of the three States that have October elections. In Pennsylvania his former protectionist friends regard him as having abandoned his principles. The majority of the Democratic press oppose him in Indiana. The leadiug Democracy have also refused their support to his candidature while in Ohio, the World asserts the repugnance to Greeley is intense.

NEW YORK, May 24.—The Executive Committee, from various Greeley clubs, have arranged for a general Greeley ratification, mass meeting to take place at the Cooper Institute, June 3. Half a dozen stands will also be erected outside for the convenience of those who cannot gain admission to the hall.

CHICAGO, Mny24.—Yesterday evening Wm. A. Pinkerton, son of .Allen Pinkerton, a well-known detective of this city, was brought to the Madison street station houae on a char re preferred bv hn wling, proprietor of gambling rooms on that street, of shooting at him with intent to kill. Two single-barreled pistols were found on the person of the prisoner. He says the pistol exploded accidentally while he was handling it, and frightened Dowling, with whom he had an old quarrel.

CHICAGO, May 24.—Patrick Callahan, a farmer of Homestead county, Minnesota, was arrested here yesterday while working at the Michigan Southern R. R. depot, by a detective from that State, charged with murdering a neighbor of his Tuamed Warren, a young man, in Minnesota, six years ago. It seems the men had a quarrel, aud it is supposed Callahan committed the deed with a scythe, the body of the young man being found with a terrible wound. Callahan neither admits nor claims the charge.

UES MOINES, IOWA, May 24.—Fearsare entertained that the corn crop in Iowa will be very light this year, as not over one-half of the corn has been planted and the weather is still cool. The season is about a month behind that of last year. Many fields of corn will have to be replanted in consequence of the seed rotting in the cold wet grouud.

Targe.

OGDEN, UTAH, May 24.—The celebrated pugilists Jim Mace and Billy Edwards passed through this city yesterday en route to California.

Greeley's Letter of Acceptance. Greeley's letter of acceptance has struck a chord in the popular heart that will vibrate throughout the country. Men who have been silent heretofore are openly proclaiming their adhesiou to the new theory of Democratic Liberalism.

There is no mistaking the drift in Indiana. "The State will be swept by Mr. Greeley long before the Convention meets as by a prarie-lire. Blair was right. The South'has faith in Mr. Greeley. If they have, can not we, who have beeu charged with friendliness to that unfortunate section? If they prefer Mr. Greeley, by what right do we forbid the bans

Your Bedford man is mistaken in his assumption that Voorhees can sweep the State whenever he will. If every leader in the State stands in the way of the torrent that is sweeping along in favor of Greeley, they will not stem it, but they will fall before its resistless force. His letter is boldly written, and bravely pronounced. It has about it harbingers of a better era. The corruptionists begin to whisper with white lips and bated breath as they behold the coming avalauche. They kuow what it portends. Make way for the era of American brotherhood. The skies are brightening. —Cincinnati Enquirer.

A Lexington letter to the Cincinnati Commercial says :'C. M. Clay writes to Mr. Brown that Greeley gains ground daily in his section, and that things are working charmingly. He has great iufiuence with the negro population—more than any man in tie State—and proposes to address them here and at other points in the Stale-during the campaigu.
