Til improvements now progressing on Si. Stephen's Church will be so nearly completed by next Saturday night that services will be held there on the following Sunday.

THE Cincinnati Enquirer says: We are informed upon the best authority that Senator Morton, of Indiana, has already received and expended for political purposes in that State no less a sum than $200,000.

R. L. BALL has such a demand for fruit cans that he finds it almost impossible to supply the trade. We hope the the same will prove true of the stoves he and his partner, King, are now manufacturing.

GEN. HUNTKK and Corporal Filbeck constituted themselves a committee of inspection to-day, and made a careful investigation as to the condition of the stock of torches heaped up in the wigwam for use this evening.

THE valorous Captain, of the Express, makes a spirited, if not heartrending appeal, to Republicans to take a torch and fall into the Logan line this evening. The gallaut exhorter will next be imploring Republicans to take a drink

THE Express was slightly in error in cliartring that Mr. Hanna rohashed the slander and forgery used by Hendricks in his Mausoleum speech.—Express.

The Express need not offer an apology in this particular case unless a reform is meditated for perversion of fact is its forte and its daily practice.

No PAPER was issued from the Journal office this morning on account of movirg, as announced through our columns yesterday afternoon. The publication of that paper will be resumed Monday morning, and thenceforth we shall be lonely no more forever, we hope,

"THE last rose of Summer, Left standing alone." It ain't standing quite as much as it was, since the collapse of the Louisville Convention and the news from Vermont.

On Monday we hope to be able to give the full returns from Vermont, and feel assured in saying that the Reform movement has gained much strength there.

MR. ANDREW GRIMES this morning received the saddening intelligence that his sister, residing at Morton, Putnam county, was dangerously ill. He started at once for the sick bed of his sister, but will be greatly delayed in reaching there, as there is no railroad communication nearer thau twelve miles of Morton.

A COMMUNICATION from "a halting Republican" appears in our columns of this issue, crowded out by Mr. Hanna's speech yesterday. We commend it to th+careful reading of the readers of the GAZETTE. The author is a man of independence and brains one of our best citizens, and withal a most excellent gentleman.

WE hope that the millions who carry the torches this evening, will not forget the news from Vermont. The administration has got a blow from that quarter which will stagger it some. The Republican majority is reduced, certainly not less than 5,000, and perhaps more.

This ratio extended all over the country, and Grant will hardly carry a State. Hurrah for Vermont!

IT is reported that the Hon. Schuyler Colfax is soon to assume editorial man* .••geinent of the Chicago Infcr-Occan. This is important, if true, so far as the patrons of that mammoth literary slop trough are concerned. Under the present management, any idiot who has any dirt to heap upon the Tribune has his opportunity through the imbecile courtesy of the Inter-Ocran managers.

sends him to tlie Indianapolis Journal. Tcrre Haute aturday Evening Mail. The above paragraph, copied from a letter of some spiteful correspondent of the Indianapolis Journal, itself an intensely partif-an paper, we do not regard in accord with the spirit which should animate a literary paper. Mr. Hanna is well known in this community, and that sort of an attack will not be cordially appreciated by our citizens, especially since it has been promulgated by a pretendud literary paper, which appeals for support to all our people, without regard to cherished religious or political opinions. Mr. Hanna spoke here the other night, and if the critics of the Mail had put in an appearance, they would have been better able to judge whether this little touch of malice was in good taste or not. The Mail has seemed to seek occasions to attack Mr. Hanna, a gentleman who loses no opportunity to extol every institution, cause, man and woman belonging to Terre Haute. Everybody says that. But Mr. Hanna will get along, notwithstanding the assaults of all the Journals and Mails id the State.

THE Greeley escort will turn out this evening to escort the speakers to the "Temple." It is expected that every man who has a uniform will be present.

A PKINTEKTORIAL BEAT.—W. L. Hoddv, who says lie was formerly connected with the Terre Haute Express, went to Mattoon, pleaded poverty, and was aided by the printers there. He then went to Sullivan, and after partaking of the hospitalities of the Plain dealer office, stole the editor's watch, and left for Covington, where, under pretense of starting a newspaper, he collected a considerable amount of money from the credulous citizens of that village, and left^to find other victims. The same cuss was in this city about eighteen months since, and left suddenly, forgetting to pay his board bill. He claimed to have formerly been a Methodist preacher.— Springfield Journal.

W. L. HODDY, who says he was formerly connected with the Terre Haute Express, came to Mattoon, plead poverty, and was aided by the printers here. He thiwi went to Sullivan, and after partaking of the hospitalities of the Plaindectler office, stole the editor's watch and left for Covington, where, under a pretense of starting a newspaper, he collected a considerable amount of money and left the credulous citizens of that village poorer but wiser. He is still at large and looking for other victims. Look out for him.—Mattoon Correspondence St. Louis Olobe.

THE history of Blanton Duncan's Convention, its nomination of Chas. O'Conor, his peremptory refusal to accept, and then the adjournment without making any nomination, is like the old couplet: 'The King of France marched up the hill with forty thousand men, And then—he marched down again." —Cincinnati Enquirer.

RATI,ROAD travel is largely on the increase both on the Illinois Central and Indianapolis & St. Louis roads. Every coach is filled, and in the freight line scarcely rolling stock enough can be furnished to meet the increasing demand.— Mattoon Correspondence St. Louis Olobe.

THE Cleveland leader talks about General Butler, the battl#-scarred hero." The fun of it is that no one can see Butler's scars when he is sitting down, and the Leader knows it.—Chicago Tribune.

A Halting Republican.

Editor of Terre Haute Gazette: In yesterday morning's issue of the Express the following, amongst other reasons, is given why "every able-bodied Republican should be willing to take a torch and fall into line" this evening: "It will convince the undecided, timid and halting."

Convince them of what? Will the Express rise and explain. It is patent to every well-informed person that ninetenths of the class here indicated are intelligent, reasoning men, who, in the unexampled political muddle before them, are uuable clearly ty see their way to a conscientious performance of one of the highest duties of citizenship—the right choice of rulers with, a view to the best government. They are a class who, while they may have strong party predilections, do not recognize in party any absolute ownership. They are neither trimmers, timeservers or place-seekers, but unselfish, thoughtful people who somewhat carefully reason their way to conclusions. Communities abound in just such men at this remarkable epoch of our political history, who stand perplexed and hesitating" in the face of grotesque aud deplorable aspects of the impending campaign.

In view of the acknowledged composition of the class of men referred to, is there not something of arctic coolness, not to say a touch of insolence, in the assumption that such men will be convinced of anj-thing touching great principles or the question of good or bad government by the inexorable logic of a street parade. In good time, the now "undecided, timid and halting" will exercise their privileges as responsible' American citizens by the light of their best judgment and convictions, and not, 1 apprehend, by the glare of torch-lights or imposing displays of party pyrotechnics. HALTING REPUBLICAN.

A Distressing Case.

A passenger on the Vandalia train last night informs us ofa case of suffering and death, of which he became cognizant, which is calculated to arouse the sympathies of every person of feeling. About a year ago a family of seven persons— father, mother, aud live ehildreu—removed from Jamestown, JSew York to Mound City, near Cairo. Within three weeks the father, mother, and three of the children have died. The grandmother, Who lives in Jamestown, New York, went to Mound City, where she heard of the sickness of her family, and staid thereuntil five of the number had departed, when she took the two remaining children, sick as they were, with the intention of removing them to their former pleasant aud healthful home in New York, and if possible, save them. Ou the arrival of the train here last night, one of the children was in a dying coudition, aud it was thought would hardly survive another day. The other, though very sick, it was thought would probably recover, with careful nursing.— Indianapolis Evening Journal.

THE British Parlimeut has passed an act prohibiting the use of steam whistles or trumpets for summoning men to work. Why can't the nuisance be abolished in tjiis country?

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.—The Lotus Club last evening tendered a reception to Signor Marie. The evening was passed in toasts, congratulations and musical performances. On Monday eveuing the Italian Club will tender him a similar re ceptiou.

The fire at Lombard & Ayres' oil works, at the foot of Sixty-sixth street and North River, which has burned since midnight of Thursday, was finally extinguished last evenii.g. Three tanks of oil and 1,000 barrels of refined oil were consumed. Loss on tanks, $5,000, and on oil $10,000. Fully Insured.

Information from Newport says the Cuban privateer, Pioueer, has been declared forfeited to the United States Government and a warrant of the same ordered returnable on the 10th inst. She will be sold at auction. The agents of the Republic of Cuba intend taking action against the course taken by the United States authorities.

Last evening Father Wm. Burke's condition was very much improved. A number of clergymen and others called during the day, manifesting much solitude for the invalid. He is now believed to be out of danger.

A special to the AVorld from Geneva says: The Tribunal of Arbitration, yesterday, pronounced a decision making award for losses caused by the Alabama, Florida and Shenandoah, and for expenditures incurred by the United States in pursuit of these vessels. The award is said to be a lump sum of $15,000,000. This, however, is not positively known.

The Herald to-day publishes full size facsimiles of Livingstone's letter from Zanzibar to Dr. Stearns, February, 1866, the letter to the President of the American Geographical Society, July, 1862, and a note written at Unyaniembe, March, 1872, having reference to Stanley. It also reproduces a fac simile of a letter to James Gordon Bennett, jr., which has been the great subject of discussion and criticism by the press. The similarity in the handwriting in all four is very striking, aud the Herald thinks that it is .sufficient to dispel the least breath of skepticism regarding the genuineness of the letters.

It is stated that Chambers intends covering the money deposited by Edwards with the stakeholder yesterday on Tuesday next, and that a new match will then be arranged. The final result of the last fight depends on the issue of the coming one, as the last stakes are still in the hands of the referee.

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.—Mrs.Fisk has instituted legal proceedings to recover possession from the Erie Railroad Company, of certain books aud papers of the Col. Fisk's, which were seized by order of President Watson. The President, it is stated, acting on the authority of the Board of Directors, has refused to pay rent for the Erie offices, claiming that the Opera House is the property of the company. The rent is $55,000, and Gould and the estate of Fisk have sued for the recovery of it. They claim that the Opera House is owned half by Fisk's estate and half by Gould. Interesting legal proceedings are probable.

A Providence special says of the Metis disaster investigation In the testimony of Edmunds, the bow watch, he spoke of sighting two schooners, one on the starboard, showing a green light, and the second to the port, showing a red light, the larboard schooner tacked around so as to come almost upon the steamer's bow. John Latham, purser, declared there were one hundred aud seven whole and two half tickets sold. Some may have had passes, but none were presented to him. Three or four more might have failed to buy tickets. He declared there were not more than ten strange passengers ou board, and that no beds were made up on the floor to his knowledge, he didn't know how many the crew consisted of nor how many life preservers there were, but thought there were enough.

Wm. Palmer, second pilot, said the night was only moderately stormy. Abraham Torrey gave the concluding testimouy. The only poiut was his frank confession that the boats were got off iu a very careless way as the schooner and steamer collided. The evidence eutirely disagrees ou several points. The affair is already getting fearfully mixed. The feeling in Providence is quiet but deep agaiust the management of the Metis, both before and after.the collision. The examination will be resumed this morning at 10 o'clock.

District Attorney Garvin argued that the prisoner was held under such indictments that excluded him from the benefits of the writ of habeas corpus. [Special Dispatch to the Indianapolis Sentinel.]

MADISON, IND., Sept. 6.—Hon. George R. Wendling, of Illinois, addressed an immense meeting in this city yesterday. There could not have been less thau ten thousand people present. Some place tire crowd at twelve thousand. The streets of Madison were one mass of living, moving humanity. Never did Madison witness such a scene. The people came from everywhere. The torch-light procession and the display of fire-works surpassed anything of the kind ever seen iu this city. One hundred and eighty-one young men, who will give their first Presidential votes for honest old Horace, escorted the speaker to the stand. Mr. Wendling's speech is admitted to be the best delivered here during the campaign. He is a brilliant, eloquent and forcible orator, and we insist that in every cauvass hereafter lie shall be sent to Madison.

After the speaking a pole was raised, and such was the enthusiasm of the people that it looked as if they would not disperse till "daylight did appear." Put Jefferson down as a redeemed county. We have got them.

Special dispatch to the ClncttlHatl 'Ennnirtir MISHAWAKA IN ASHES..

A City of 4,000 People Swept Away by -a. Whirlwind of Fire. MISHAWAKA, IND., September 6.—At a quarter past 8 o'clock this eveniug, a fire broke out in a barn near the business portion of this town, and rapidly spread, and is burning at this hour—half-past 9 o'clock. Nearly twenty buildings, with much of their contents, have been burned. The people are bravely at work saving all that they can, possibly. No cau»e is yet assigued, though some early at the fire plainly smelled burning kerosene. The wind is blow iiig strongly from the southwest.

Among the buildings burned is the Presbyterian Church. The insurance is light on the burned buildings. The fire is now sweeping to the river, and it is now feared that some of the larger manufacturing establishments on the river will have to go. Help from South Bend and Elkhart has been telegraphed for, and steamers are momentarily expected.

LATER.—The fire is still raging. A number of valuable brick buildings have been burued, and the loss is estimated thus far at $150,000. A large number of dwellings and tenement-houses are gone, and many more are in imminentdanger. The streets are full of goods of every description, many ot which are now being removed to escape renewed danger. Oue building has been blown up. Many families are thrown upon the streets, and are at the mercy of those more fortunate. They are mainly of the poorer class. The insurance on what is burnt is mainly in the Home, Underwriters and Continental, of New York, Hartford and Phoenix, of Hartford, the North America, of Philadelphia, Andes, of Cincinnati, Home, of Columbus, and Imperial, of London, and estimated in gross at about $40,000. Two steamers have arrived and are doing good work, and it is hoped that the fire will soon be under control. The wind still continues strong.

Communication to the Marshall Herald.

A MOST SINGULAR PHENOMENON.

An Electrical Cnrrent Descends Upon and Destroys Tart of a Corn Field—The Best Protection.

I had intended, at an earlier date, to have furnished you with an item touching the eccentricities of the "electric fluid," in its sports with our neighbor James Snider's cornfield, but have carelessly neglected to do so, until now. But as it will still offer material for thought, and investigation of the philosopher. I will now ask a little space in your paper call the attention, and ask an explanation of this singular electrical anomaly. During the heavy thunder storm we had on the evening of the 6th inst., the lightning struck Mr. Snider's growing corn, on block No. 8, in Stephen Archer's addition to the city of Marshall, completely destroying three hills in a circle. The tops and ears were torn from all the stalks, and the balance of the stalks riven and torn as though they had passed through a cane mill. From this point the electric fluid seems to have passed some thirty feet in a southeast direction and destroj'ed another hill of corn in a similar manner. This occurred near the southwest corner of block 8, and some fifteen feet from the fence, while there is forest timber standing to the north, the east and the south, equi* distant, but little if any over twenty rods from where the lightning struck the green corn. Will some of our philosophic sages, give us an explanation of such exceutric phenomena? Did the electric current pass from the clouds to the earth? or from the earth to the clouds? Is green corn a ready conductor of electricity. Thismay answer as a "text" for some of your learned readers to enlighten the unlearned mass of the people on the play of the electric fluid, in the time of storms, a subject ou which correct instructions can never come amiss, and may be the means of saving many lives.

1 see an article going the rounds of the press, stating that the "lightning never strikes the beech or sycamore," and hence their shelter would be a safe retreat in the time of storms. This a mistake. We have seen both badly riven with lightning. They may be, (especially the beech), more safe thau any other timber, as a place of retreat provided there is no dead or dry limbs in the top, but a dead limb in the top of & beech or sycamore will receive a charge of electricity as readily as that of any other timber, Indeed persons should guard against taking shelter from storm under any tree that has dead limbs in the tops.

MARSHALL, August 26,1872. P.

What is Senator Wilson.'

The question whether Senator Wilson was a Know-Nothing is now definitely settled and at rest. The cloud of witnesses which has arisen to prove this shows bow silly must always be the attempt of a public man to deny his record. But this question being disposed of, another one arises, not less important. Is Senator Wilson's word good for anything When first asked by a friendly correspondent if he had been KnowNothing, he wrote a wordy and evasive letter to prove that, being in favor of

justice to all men, it was not likely that lie had ever been in favor of a proscriptive policy. This naturally called cut proofs, and the case was soou settled beyond a doubt. But in the midst of this rain of proofs a letter was published purporting to bo written by him to a com mi (tec of Germau.s in Brooklyn, denying that. he had ever belonged to the obnoxious ora ligation. The amazing effrontery or this denial was promptly set forth by Mr. Bird and others aud Mr. Wilson, seeing the unfortunate effect of this letter, pronounced it a forgery. We showed on Monday that the facts pointed very strongly to Mr. Wilson as the source of the letter, and we now are able to complete the information and justify the inferences of our former article. A letter was written, as we are informed from a responsible source, by Mr. Herrman Askenasy, a Government office-holder in Boston, a friend of Senator Wilson, who frequently assists him in his German correspondence. It was written with the knowledge and at the request of Mr. Wilson, in answer to the letter of Mr. Frevert and others, who wanted their way made clear in voting for Grant and Wilson. Yet Henry Wilson has no more sense of responsibility for his words than to call this letter a forgery.

The inclined plane down which he hasslided is evident. He had not courage enough to admit that he was a Know-Nothing. When asked-if he was, he wrote a letter which evaded the question and was taken for a denial. Thereupon his friends denied the fact, and he did not dare correct them. The next thing was to request his amanuensis to write an untruthful letter and next, when this brought him into trouble, was to call it a forgery. Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, said of somethingthat.it was "as easy as lying." Henry, Senator of Massachusetts, could testify that there is nothing less easy than to stop lying when you have ouce begun.—JV. Y. Tribune.

The German Tote.

It is no longer disputed that a very large portion of the German Republicans, more than half in this county, and in other pjaces two-thirds and tbree-quart-erS, will, at the coming election, support Greeley and Erown, This conduct upon theiivpart is not unexpected by us. The Germans are an honest, economical and industrious class of people, the very ones to discard such an idle, frivolous and corrupt President as Grant. They are independent and do their own thinking. Party lines set moiy^ lightly upon them than any other portion of our people. They are never frightened-with the appellation, "bolters," from paety organizations. Indeed they rather like it, and they often "bolt", iu large masstes^- As Republicans, however, they recognise Greeley to be an older and better one than Grant, the latter of whom knows nothing theoretically of the difference betweeu the parties.

But they Jjave another grievauce against this Administration—a grievance which they share in common with Americans, it is true, but which they can feel to a keener extent. We allude to tihe supply of arms furnished from the Government arsenals in the United States to the French, when Germany was at war with that power in 1870. The Germans in this country, had a right to suppose that our Government would be neutral and would fulfill treaty stipulations. Imagine their astonishment when they found that Grant had sold hundreds of thousands of arms to the enemies of the Prussian Government, by which they were enabled to prolong the war. Thousands of lives were lost aud mourning was brought into many a German family on this side of the water through muskets that Giant handed over to the French, in order that they might continue the struggle. An intelligent German, who was in Germany at the time, says that in the last stages of the war, when they found their French prisoners all armed with muskets marked U. S., aud fresh from our arsenals, that the inquiry was general, whether they were fighting M. Thiers' Administration or that of Grant in the United States. It really looked, at any rate, as if they were allies. The fact that there was a dirty job connected with the transaction that Grantfcnd his Military Ring made a handsome sum upon the arms sale, which induced them to go into it, does not mitigate the severity with which the Germans regard the whole business, but rightly, we think, adds to it. To coin money out of humau blood is the personification of baseness. The Germans who, after this, will vote, for Grant, may be safely set down at a small figure.—Cincinnati Enquirer.

A GRANT paper says the leading military commanders at the soldiers' demonstration in Portland, Maine, "were those battle-scarred heroes, General Benjamin Butler and General Henry Wilson, who showed how fields were won."

As ONE of the eveniug trains was entering the Springfield, Mass., the other night, a little girls, who saw the flaring lights, and general diabolical appearance of the place, nestled up to her mother's side, aud inquired iu an awe-struck whisper, "Mamma, is this hell?"

P'IRST Young Lady—"Gracious I was so frightened when I went to bed last night. I thought sure there was a man in the room." 2d Young Lady—"Ob dear! What did you do?" 1st Young Lady—"Ran and locken the door as soon as ever I could." [Sensation.]
