Additional Local News.

WK have never seen so lively campa'gning on Wall street as- we did this morning.

THE Greeleyites will next jubilate over the prospect of a Radical victory, we presume.

I'KV. TKNNANT was taking his first lessons in the Criminal Court, this forenoon—and his last

THE sharp, shrill voice of Judge Craiu penetrated the still night air last evening, as a charge of bird-shot penetrates a rotten apple.

THE Pacific and Atlantic Telegraph office can now be found down stairs in Tuell's block, on Main street, near the Central Book store.

THE Criminal Court, Judge Long presiding and S. C. Davis prosecuting, convened this morning, but transacted no business of general interest.

MK. GRANT'S boon companion, E. R. Hoar, of Massachusetts, denies that be ever gave that individual a law library, valued at $25,000. But that is not the point. Did he not "swap" the library for a position in the Cabinet? That's the question.

THE amusing feature of 'Squire Nehf's court to-day was a suit for the possession of a purp, wherein a youth named Tuttle appeared as plaintiff, and Dick Wyeth as defendant. The case became animated as they proceeded. Decision reserved by the court.

THE Ripley-City condemnation of property case is on trial in the Common Pleas Court. Mr. Ripley is represented by Messrs. Allen and Mack and the city by Messrs. Rumsey, McLean and Pierce. Tried by jury, his Honor J. T. Scott presiding.

DANIEL CAKSON was fined and costed $12 for firing oft a four-barreled Sharpe's pistol, last evening. Had he been sharp, he would have fire.1 a cannon, then he would not have been arrested, for the reason that the Radical city authorities would then have thought him celebrating over the "news from Maine."

RIDDLE'S jewelry and notion establishment has been greatly enlarged, and having a large number of clerks, are now doing a big business. So great the demand for their first-class jewelry ork become, that Mr. Lightnor finds it necessary to have an assistance. Mrs. R. is managing the concern in the abence of Mr. R. Messrs. Thompson and Nelson also have resumed their daily duties there.

AFTER JUDGE Pierce's remarks at the wake last evening, the President of the meeting announced that there was a fellow in the crowd, named Shepard, vVho would sing them a song. Mr. Shepard ambled to the stage, and in a voice husky with emotion, chanted some verses of his own composition, on North Carolina. He remarked that he had just added another verse since Maine had been heard from. They were very beautiful. The rythm was admirable— "more" rymiug charmingly with "sore (pronounced mower and sower.) They bore evidence of hasty composition, and in the hurry, while he put in everything else, he seems to have forgotten to put in theseuse. The neglect was forgiven ly the audience.

JrnoE CHAIN, last evening, in explaining the absence of Col. Thompson from the meeting, took occasion to assure the audience that the Col.'s heart was in the movement as much as any one's. In times past, the Col. has not needed the assurances of Judges to convince the people of his position. What is the matter with the people now that these repeated assertions have to be made that he is all right Has he been kicking over the traces? Has he not always known that Grant saved the country? and believed with the Judges in the legal maxim, that to the savior belongs the saved, body and soul, iu fee simple? Has he not always given his full assent to the doctrine that criticism of a President becomes vile slander if a good military record lies back of the Presidency? Has he not always admitted that prior successful Generalship is a complete refutation of drunkenness in a President, and that a minister of the gospel, who, after such refutation, believes the evidence of his own eye? and the words of Henry Wilson and other right houorable gentlemen, deserves expulsion from his pulpit?

The anxiety displayed on the part of various parties to make this plain would seem to argue jhftt it had once been obSHWe,

LYMAN TREMAIN, who is running for Congress-at-Large on the Grant ticket in New York, says he prefers "the beaten way.— Grant Exchange.

His preferences will be regarded when election time arrives he's on the "beaten wcy" now.

THE wiitks of the Republican leader^ as they p»ss each other on the streets this morning, were very significant. They meant—"did we not steal a march on the Greeleyites last evening, by firing tlie cannon—that was a sharp] trick—we turned their triumph to our account, and of wl.at was really their victory in Vermont or Maine, made some cap! a for us. That is the way to do it. Throw all the sand you can in the people's eyes.' This is an old trick, but it is rather thin

FUNNY.—"What was that cannon firing for," is Me question asked by every one last evening. Some thought that a boy had been drowned in the river, and the burning of powder was intended to bring the body to the surface. Others thought that the Greeleyites were rejoicing over the reduced majorities of the Grantites in Vermont and Maine, but no one ever supposed that the officeholders were themselves burning powder on account of their great falling otf in those States.

It was the most stupen luous eftort at enthusiasm, to be found iu the calendar of politics.

WE are pleased to announce to those of our cii izf-ns who have a taste for the irt terpischoriaii, that Mr. H. C. Lip paid, for ten years professor of dancing at St. Agnes College, Memphis, a genuine Southern gentleman, who has taught the aesthetic science for many years, has come to our city to teach the art here, provided he receives the proper encouragement. Negotiations are now pending for the lease of Promenade Hall, Grand Opera House building, in which to hold the exercises.

The Professor is now the guest of his old acquaintance and friend, Armstrong, of the well-knowu drug firm of Buntin & Armstrong. He comes among us with the highest commendations from the heads of colleges and families, and newspapers ofgreat prominence, which should recommend him to the good graces of our citizens.

THE Radical candidate for the Criminal Prosecutorship remarked last evening at the wake that since the evening before, when the lightning was flashing over the wires, &c., &c., he had been thinking. Just what he had been thinking about was lost in the storm of applause that greeted "the lightning flashing over the wires." The remark though is significant, and it seems o.ur duty to call the attention of the managers to this thing: Gentlemen, if you expect to elect the man who saved his country you must stop this "thinking" in the ranks. It is a symptom of Liberalism, and what is more, develops rapidly into Greeley ism, which you know is frightfully contagious. A Caesar, before Ulysses, preferred the rotund Anthony to the lean and hungry Cassius, who fed on reflection and thought too much. Tennant must be attended to. This "thinking" will make him a sorehead.

SEVERAL days since our telegraphic dispatches detailed the hanging of three thieves by an Alabama mob. Since then we have received the Lauderdale (Ala.) Times, and from it learn that one of the robbers directed his portion of the $365 in money, which was found on their persons, to be sent to his sister, Miss Kate Schilee, of Indianapolis, Indiana. The man attempted to escape, was shot by some person unknown, recaptured, aud hung with the others. The Indianapolis papers might passibly confer a favor by reproducing this fact from the Times.

MRS. CLEM.

The Supreme Conrt Denies Her Petition for Further Suspension of Execution of Her Sentence.

A petition was filed in the Supreme Court, on Monday, in the case of Nancy E. Clem vs. the State of Indiana, in which the appellant, after setting forth the facts of her trial and conviction by the Boone Circuit Court at its May term, 1872, and the order of Court allowing her to remain for forty days in Marion county jail in order to arrange and settle up her business affairs previous to her removal to State Prison iu execution of the senteuce of the Court, prays the said Supreme Court to further extend the suspension of the execution of her sentence, the limit fixed by the Circuit Court expiring on the 9th instant. The petition declares the prisoner to be innocent of the crime, for the commission of which she is sentenced to undergo punishment, and unless the Supreme Court will interfere, she will be sent away to-morrow (the 10th). The petition further alleges that she has not had a fair aud impartial trial, there having been committed numerous aud flagrant errors of law, among which are assigned: 1 The sustaining of a demurrer to appellants' plea setting up a former trial and acquittal. 2. Partiality, bias, prejudice, intemperance, sickness and other improper conduct on the part of members of the jury which tried her. 3. The admission of improper, illegal and inadmissible testimony against lier ou the trial, which was objected or excepted to at the time. 4. Refusal to admit proper legal and admissible evidence offered by defendant. Objected to by the State and proper ception taken. 5. That the court misdirected the jury iu material mutters of law, which were excepted to at the time. 6. That the court failed to give the jury any instruction in material matters of law. 7. That the court erred in overruling defendant's motion for a new trial. 8. That the court erred in overruling defendant's motion in arrest of judgment.

For these reasons the prisoner prays that court will direct that she be permitted to remain in the Mariou county jail until this court can consider the errors assigned ou appeal.

The petition bears the following en dorsement: "The within application is refused, on the ground that we possess no power to grant the relief prayed for.

NEW YOKK, Sept. 11.—A special to the' Times from Augusta says the official majority of Governor Perham, when the vote is counted next week, will not be short of 16,000, and it will show that the Republicans have carried every county in the State by majorities ranging from 1,500 to 1,800, and that the majority on Congressmen in the State will reach 17,000. Less than a half-dozen promiinent towns and cities show any falling off or diminution from any causes. The very latest returns show that the total vote will probably not come up to the estimates made before the election, but is likely to fall short of 125,000.

There was much excitement on Wall street yesterday in regard to Pacific Mail stock. The report of the burning of the steamer America gradually becoming regarded as a canard as the day advanced, and no confirmation of the report being received, Pacific Mail stock gradually grew stronger, nearly 20,000 shares changing hands. The stock closed at 71071$. The indications are that the price will coutinue to advance, unless telegrams are soon received confirming the disaster. It is now thought the reports were started by parties in their interest.

The Louisville Committee to apprise O'Conor of his nomination, had an interview with that gentleman, last evening, at his office in Wall street. The meeting was strictly private, but it was subsequently learned that the nomination was discussed by O'Conor and the delegates at length, when an adjournment was decided upon until to-day. Nothing defiuite was reached yesterday, but the committee have strong hopes of O'Conor's ultimate acceptance of the nomination. At the meeting to-day, after a full review of the situation, and a thorough canvass of the views of the delegates, O'Conor will probably announce his final decision.

A number of prominent Democrats will, it is-said, urge O'Conor to accept and become a candidate.

WRECK ON THE I. & ST. L.

A Man Falls from a Sleeping Car, etc. Two serious freight train wrecks occurred on the I. & St. L. yesterday afternoon —the first at "Embarrass siding," by which six cars were ditched, and the cecond at Spray, in which eight or ten sars were wrecked. The last mentioned was at a point some few miles west the city, which necessitated a transfer of passengers and baggage. The first delayed until nearly noon to-day the train which ought t© have arrived at

J. E. Done, from Plainfield, came Up on the Vandalia last evening, and started out on the I. & St. L. for Danville, and from what can be learned he attempted to steal a ride on the roof of the sleeper. Some few miles out he fell off, and was brought to the Surgical Institute in a paralized condition. This morning he recovered sufficiently to resume his journeyings.

A MECHANICAL TRIUMPH.

An Invention Which Does Away With llic "Dead Point" in the Crank. Thomas Morton, a member of the senior class of Racine College, and a resident ot Racine, has invented an improvement upon the crank, which is deemed by mauy practical engineers and scientific men likely to prove one of the most valuable and greatest inventions of the age.

Persons familiar with machinery are aware that there are two dead points in the crank, where all the power is lost a balance wheel is necessary to carry the machinery beyond these points the balance wheel is not able of itself to generate any force, so that double the power is required, one-half to thi*n the machinery while the crank is working, and the other half to give sufficient momentum to the balance wheel to carry the machinery beyond the points where the crank can not

Mr. Morton's improvement does away with the dead points entirely, and keeps the power continually on the long lever, or, as engineers call it, the half-center, thus very nearly doubling the power ana so saving a great amount of fuel in engiues. It can readily be applied to all kinds of crank machinery, engiues, lathes, sewing machines, etc.

Mr. Morton went in person to Washington and procured a patent. He says the men in the patent office pronounced his invention wholly new from anything they had ever seen also the engineers at the Capitol building gave as their opinion that it was a very excellent improvement aud a perfect success.

No one has yet given a reason why it will not work, and the only argument raised against it is that it has been labored at ever since steam eugines were first invented, mauy men having spent their fortunes and HVPS in searching after it, and people cannot believe that Mr. Morton, being young, and not a practical mechanic, has really found the secret.

The simplicity of the invention is almost ridiculous, and makes one laugh aud wonder why it was never thought of before. It consists of a ratchet wheel, which takes the place of the crank over this ratchet wheel runs a frame, in two sides of which are movable cogs or pawls when the connecting rod drives the frame out, the cogs on one side act upon the teeth of the wheel, and carry it half way round, while at the same time, the cogs on the opposite side, working in a contrary direction, when touched by the teeth of the wheel are thrown out of the way, »nd the instant they escape the teeth of the wheel they adjust themselves, by their own weig'et., or by means of springs, and so are ready to carry the wheel the remaining half revolutiou when the connecting rod is drawn in, thus a revolution is obtained with every stroke of the piston, and no time is lost.

Mr. Morton got up the iuvention and demonstrated in two days, and declares that he never thought of it before in his life, in fact he never knew there was anything wanting in the crans. His surprise can only be imagined when he found, that his simple little idea had opened a prospect of fame and wealth.

The Creilit Mobilier Scandal. We publish this morning, with all pos sible reserve, an article from the New York Sun making the most serious charjres against, the corporation known as the Credit Mobilier of America. This article is founded upon a transcript of certain evidence recently taken between the company ard its agents which has in some way come into the possession of the Sun. The evidence contains statements, apparently supported by letters and written memoranda, going to show that a vast and extraordinary system of bribery aud corruption has been carried on iu Congress for a period of several years in the interest of the corporation referred to. Several private letters from Mr. Oakes Ames are printed in the evidence, which clearly indicate that he was either pursuing a system of briberj' among the members of Congress, or that he wished'to persuade his associates that he was thus employed.

For along time past there have been rumors of such a state of things as is here set forth. A few of the persons who are meutioned in these published memoranda have been more or less openly accused of being in the pay of the Credit Mobilier. But we think no one will be prepared to read the details of the operations of the company, and especially the list of names which they pretend to have secured for their service, without an emotionof profound and painful astonishment. Wliile it is true that some of the persons mentioned have not hitherto distinguished for absolute and unspotted purity, there are others whose names look singularly out of place when penciled on the back of Mr. Ames' letter, as standing on the role of his property. The public will lo with deep interest at th^ further developments in this case. It is impossible that it shall now escape the -crutiny both of Congress and the courts. If (rue, it is a terrible discovery if

false,

it is an intollerable calumny. The matter cannot ba allowed to rest here. If the gentlemen implicated are slandered, they lie under a solemn obligation to right themselves by every means iu their power. If the charges are true, they indicate a lower depth of demoralization among the members of the National Legislature thau ever was asserted or juspected before. If this exposure is tnie..„aiid the truth or falsehood of it must soornibe demonstrated, the duty Congress anjl of the constituencies of these unfaitnfuji stewards is very plain. They must instaSttv be expelled by their colleagues and repudiated by their fellow citizens, or any pretense of honest legislation becomes a farce. The very forms of republican government become noxious and destructive when cSmqjtiou is allowed to poison in such a way as the very fountains of national life a law.

We have only to add that we should utterly refuse to publish the synopsis of these papers, which we elsewhere give, and should regard the Presidential canvass as an additional reason for declining to aid their circulation, but for our knowledge of the fact that the letters of Mr. Ames are genuine documents, submitted in his own handwriting in the due course of a trial still pending before an examiner in the Eastern District of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, duly authenticated on oath and eiucidated and confirmed by sworn testimony. What Mr. Ames may have to say in explanation, we cannot wnagine. But fairness requires that no verdict shall be rendered on an ex parte statement till the other side have an opportunity to be heard. Messrs. Ames, Blaine, Wilson & Co.! this matter is in sworn evidence before the courts. What is your explanation Or, do you propose to rest silent under testimony that covers your names with infamy ?—N. Y. Tribune.

A SAD TALE OF LOYE.

How a Saratoga Belle Camelo Her Death. A recent letter frem Boston contains the following: "A funeral procession passed up yesterday. A young man told me a story that I think has a peculiar sadness about it. At Saratoga, last season, at one of the largest balls, was a young lady with the most charming and fascinating manners and graces. Her toilet was equally as pleasing She was the belle of the ball—an honor accorded her without dissent. Her attendant during the evening was a young man dressed most gaudily, and bearing himself with all the distasteful self-conceit of a brainless millionaire. He was the son of a Boston leather dealer. He met the lady at Saratoga for the first time last season, and she, by direction of her parents, who were also wealthy, and insisted on the arrangement, became his affiauced. Previous to this she had met a young gentleman, also from Boston, of utmost respectability, thorough honor and integrity, but without fortune. To hitn she had been something more than a friend, in fact, almost a betrothed. He was young, had risen by his own stern efforts, and was, it is said, possessed of sterling and promising abilities, which in time must have won wealth and perhaps distinction. Ou the return of the lady from Saratoga, last season, her engagement prevented her from further intercourse with her first suitor and he was dismissed. His grief was pitiful. He strove not to reveal it by word or action, but the very effort he so laborously made exposed the poignancy of his wounds. The lady lived with her husband in the suburbs of the city at a large and costly residence for one month after her marriage. By that time the abuse of her husband compelled immediate separation He was incontinently shipped to Europe, where he still remains, and the young wife was left to gradually decline in health until death ensued but not until she had reproached her parents for driving her to an alliance which brought such early ruin, and blasted such bright hopes aud expectations. As the funeral procession passed up a public street, the first lover while watching -with blai-ched cheek, and moist eyes the sad cortege, fell to tbs ground suffering an attack of hemorrhage of the lungs. He was carried into hysiciau's office near by, where he dieda efore the body of the one he so tenderlyand truly

loved

was

laid

ng place."

in its last rest

HE rumor published in the "old reliable" Journal, on Saturday, to the effect that Van Buren Denslow, E-q., editorial writer on the Tribune, had committed suicide, is without tne slightest foundation. The report also prevailed ou 'Change, and Mr. -Denslow believes that it was maliciously started by some parties at Highland Park, where he resides. He recently made a political speech there, and took occasion tosbow up some persons iu a damaging light. Hence, it is supposed that the mean report came from that source. Mr. Denslow has been making speeches at Warsaw, Bourbon, Elkhart and other towns in Indiana, and returned home ou Saturday. He has pursued his usual dutiessince and doesn't look at all suicidy. He proposes to take another political tour through Indiana, and expects to hear some more "good" things from his "friends" when he returns., He declines most emphatically to lea subject for the "Crowner,''— Chicago Mail.

IT is reported that the younger Ben-nett-has given orders for a magnificent monument to his father, intended to be the finest in Greenwood. The price is unlimited, but it is estimated that it will cost not less than $250,000. The shaft is to be of white marble, elaborately sculptured with symbolical figures representing the profession of journalism. The inscription will be simply "James Gordon Bennett," with age and date, and "Founder of the New York Herald."

A MEMBER of the San Francisco school board blushes when he enters the art rooms, because they contain a copy of the "Greek Slave." Such delicacy can only be rewarded by a good kicking.
