Additional Local News.

TOM LANGFORD IS the most inveterate oyster man in the county. His cry is, still they come.

A RUNAWAY team at the Evansville freight depot killed a horse attached to a coal wagon this morning.

OoprKS of the new city directory can be had at the Central Book Store. There are hut a few copies left and those who wish a first-class article will do well to call soon.

FOHGY, the man who stabbed Win. Landrum, was captured by officer Crowe after a vigorous assistance, last night. He was then placed under $400 bond, as his victim is expected not to recover.

WE are pleased to see that the Commercial School has introduced the science of phonography as one of the branches to be taught there. It is one of the most important of the age in which we Jive.

INDIANAPOLIS is to have a new paper, called the Daily Star. It will be literary in character, and will be owned and controlled by Phillips & Kimberly. The first number will be issued on the 23d inst.

MR. H. R. DUVAL is in town. He leaves Monday for Burlington, Iowa, his future headquarters as manager for the Northwest of the B. & O. R. R. Co. The many friends of Mr. D. will miss him this winter.

THE Express has become so violent in its denunciation of Mr. Hendricks, that its incendiary villifications have caused the Evansvilie Journal to enter a mild protest.

Yet the Express prates about dignified journalism.

LOCKWOOD, the tinner, has a magnificent *yster saloon and ice cream room fitted up, over his tin shop, on Fourth street, near Cherry. As the season is well nigh spent, so far as ice cream is concerned, fresh oysters will be ttiade a specialty. Give Lockwood a call and see what he has got.

PUTTING up stoves and fitting up stovepipes will soon be the order of the day. The present "cold snap" is but a gentle reminder that the heated term has passed for the year, and that the cheerful autumn days will soon be followed up by the cheerless winter, when all will be dreariness and desolation until the glad spring-time of the next year.

THE jury iu the case of Boord, Hedges & Co. vs. McKeen, Smith & Co., is a substantial one—such an one as should be secured for all important cases in courts. In order to secure justice in a court of law, where cases are tried by jury, business men of known integrity should serve for they alone are competent to the discharge of so important trusts.

S. 8. EARLEY, Esq., has entered the broad field of journalism. He has purchased an interest in the Baltimore Bulletin, a literary paper of the Monumental City.

Mr. Early is an accomplished scholar and a courteous gentleman, whose acquaintance it is a real pleasure to make. In this new venture we wish him success.

THE Liberal Republicans and Democrats of the Terre Haute Car W orks, to the number of fifty-eight, met at the corner of Twelfth and Ohio

streets,

on the

evening of Sept. 13th, 1872. Mr. B. A. Pullian was appoiuted to the chair. They organized a Greeley and Brown Club. Mr. Geo. Plug was elected Captain H. C. Miller, First Lieutenant Wm. Esilinger, Orderly.

J. T. LANGFORD, of Torre Hauto, was in our place last

Saturday

on business. Tom

says he has had bad luck in raising chickens, and says he is going to raise crows.— Hoosier State.

Though Tom did raise his first "square meal" of crow, he has kept down those that followed, which have been numerous, and now he ean devour as much crow with as hearty a relish as anybody. Unlike the Hoosier State man, however, he cannot relish buzzard (Grant), even with Administration sauce in the shape of the letter-list publishing.

THE motion for a new trial in the case of Geo. F. Ripley vs. the city of Terre Haute was argued in the Common Pleas court this forenoon, Messrs. Rumsey, Pierce, McLean and others arguing on behalf of the city, and Messrs. Baird, Allen, Mack and others for the plaintiff. The court overruled the motion, whereupon counsel on behalf of the city signified their intention of filing a bill of exceptions in the Supreme gourfc. Ninety were give^

The Tigo County Fair.

To most of our readers the fact is weH known that on next Monday, the atP nual exhibition of the Vigo Fair Association begins. To the regular attendants for years, last year's display will be remembered as eclipsing all of its predecessors. It is the intention of the gentle men who have the matter in charge, to make the fair of this year the biggest and best ever held. At least so they say, and they are men whose words the community has learned to consider as good as their oaths, and the last better than gold. A trip to the grounds this morning, discovered a scene of bristling activity.

Many of the structures which did duty last year are being remodeled and improved. Several new ones are being built. Oue hundred new stalls for horses anrl cattle have been added to the number already on hand, making in all 300 for stock of that kind, and still it is thought from indications of entries that more will have to be made to meet the demand. The premium list is so large and the amounts given so liberal in every department that the only fear is that even with the accommodations of last year almost doubled, there will still not be room enough. A neat picket fence, extending from the judge's stand a hundred yards up and down the track, will answer better than the old time rope the purpose of keeping people off the track and out of the way of the horses as they sweep round the course on the home stretch of the race. The pickets are put about an honest nose's width apart, with a special view to keep pet poodles and teuder infants from crawling through and getting hooted at and stoned in the one case and run over in the other. Possessors of poodles and infants (as well as men who expect to try the speed of their horses, and who naturally feel indiguant when a 2:20 gait is interrupted and perhaps the horse forced into a gallop, by stumbling over Freddie or Susie) will alike feel grateful to the managers for this improvement. The newspaper fraternity, of course, feel indignant at this ruthless onslaught, and unprovoked attempt to deprive their vocation of its best and dearest features. Perhaps a judge will fall out of the stand and be so kind as to light on the points of a half-dozen pickets. The reflection almost reconciles us to the fence.

The liberality of the premiums is likely to bring out all of the fine stock iu this and adjoining counties. Thoroughbred equities, bovines that can trace their ancestry in unbroken succession back to William, the Conqueror porcines richer in fatness than Croesus in sheckles and ovines of the silk-bearing species— invented and patented by Horace Greeley—will all be on hand. Machinery of every description will be on exhibition, from knitting needles to threshing machines. Flowers of ravishing beauty and fragrance will adorn the floral hall. Fruits, from grapes to water, melons, will tempt the eyes of spectators and the stomachs of the arbitrators. Cakes, jellies, pickles, everything that can be eaten or drunk, will be there for the people to look at and the judges to taste. Reader, everythiug you ever saw, heard of, or read about, will be tttere, and if you want to form any idea of the magnitude of the feast that will be spread next week, multiply your most gorgeous dreams of what fairs ought to be by 10, and then go to the fair and see how much below the reality your estimate has fallen.

Standing, tip-toed, on the tail end of this and looking into next weak, we see visions of a fair, such as Vigo county never had before. Such as the managers of next year will find mighty hard to beat, and such as any one failing to see will have lost an opportunity for pleasure, instruction and the gratification of a laudable curiosity, which they will have to wait long before they can find the duplicate of.

A Chance for Patriots.

At the approaching county fair the officers and teachers of "Plymouth Chapel Sunday School," will have a refreshment and dining hall upon the grounds. They propose to have upon exhibition a beautiful gold-headed cane, to be voted to the most popular Presidential candidate. No objection will be made to everybody's voting early and voting often charge for voting will be 10 cents for each vote. Enthusiastic friends of either Grant or Greeley may here demonstrate their enthusiasm, and at the same time help a good cause. One, two, five, ten, twenty or fifty dollar votes may be given by all who are so disposed, each dollar counting- ten votes upon the list of the candidate voted for. The committee in charge of the polls will be equally divided in political sentiment, and every possible provision will be made for a fair expression of the popular will. We hope to see the honored form of the philosopher of Chappaqua leaning upon this beautiful testimonial of the people's regard, as he shall continue, for four years from the 4th of March next, to go in and out of his residence at the White House, at Washington, D. C.

FORT WAYNE is on the wane. The zenith of its commercial fame has been passed. It has passed from hamlet through village and is now on its way back to hamlet again. It has reached the historical period and is now waiting anxiously for .the appearance of a "history of the Maumee Valley" in which its former glories will be related. Steelplate portraits of Messrs. Pliny Hoagland, Jesse L. Williams, Joe. K. Edgerton, (a candidate before Ulysses Duncan's side show for the Vice Presidency) and other old giants will adorn the pages of the forthcoming "hjstory of the Maumee Valley."

WE learn that Blakely, the rascal who swindled the people of this county out of so much mouey, played the same game on a number of people in Ohio a few vears since.—Booster $tatef

reports the fair a success.

Every curiosity that Coles county affords was on exhibition. The management expected to have a live Grantite enter for the mule race, and hopes were entertained up to the last moment that one could be secured. Plenty of cigars, Bourbon and other Grant fodder had been provided for his aliment while on duty. The live specimen, however, could not be found in Coles or the adjoining coun ties.

MR. THOMAS HARRIS, one of the plaintiffs in the railroad suit referred to in our is^ue of yesterday, has been in very feeble health since last February. Several days sinfce he came to the city from his home on ttfe^. T. H. R. R., near the old reservoir ^Minshall.) Before the case could be brought tf trial, however, he was taken worse, at^k now lies in a very precarious condition afcfe^ahQJJLse on North Third street. It is feareffln^ he is on his death-bed. His deposition his own case was phonographically taken, yesterday afternoon, while he lay in bed, scarcely able to articulate.

MESSRS. Allen & Mack, of this city, contribute a card to the Rockville Patriot, touching the injunction granted by the court in the railroad appropriation case, and explanatory of their interest iu the case as counsel for the taxpayers.

They, among other things, say All parties are enjoined from using or expending the money till Circuit Court meets when the case will be finally tried.

This question has excited a lively difference and vigorous expression of opinion among the usually staid citizens of Parke county, of late months.

MRS. COTTMAN, residing with her husband on North Fifth street, in descend ing the stairs a day or two since, lost her balance and fell to the floor, some disfc^nce below, injuring herself very se verely. Her husband is an agent of the Singer Sewing Machine Company, he having entered that business because of his health having failed him while en gaged at his trade, carpentering.

THE inauguration of President Audrus and Prof. McNutt took place at Asbury last night, Judge Downey presiding. The addresses were able, and showed that the gentlemen in charge of the interests of the institution are fully alive to the importance of their work. The Board of Trustees and Visitors was present, and the venerable Robert Stockwell, of LaFayette. This morning Mr. Stockwell presented the University with an additional $27,000, making $52,000 that he has given it. The friends of Old Asbury will be glad to learn that she is starting out under the new administration with such flattering prospects.— Oreeneastle Banner.

THE Blanton Duncan Convention have just learned what a narrow escape they had they came near nominating a Greeley man for President. Mr. J. K. Edgerton, whose nomination was greatly desired by those who thought such a selection might injure Heudricks' chances in Indiana, says that he has, from the first, believed the support of the Cincinnati nominees the duty of every patriotic citizen. What a dreadful thing it would have been if the Administration, which have wasted their money on Blanton Duncan, should have wasted it on a Greeley man also !—N. Y. Tribune.

HON. AARON SHAW, OF Olney, was in the city for several days during the early part of this week, looking for the man who wants to wager greenbacks on Illinois going for Grant by 30,000 majority. He didu't find him. The Judge has a friend who will take all the bets of that kind he can get, aud will even do better. If any enthusiastic Radical, with more money than brains, wants to bet two to one on Illinois giving Grant 15,000 majority, he can find a customer at Olney. Grant's majority in Illinois in '68 was 51,150.—Vincennes Sun. \i $

THE sudden and tragic demise of the Commoner, of this city, was a severe blow to the great souls who have found it impossible to adopt the plan for the salvation of the country devised by the Dem» ocratic party and all the honest Republicans. But now the Terre Haute Journal, the only newspaper in the State of Indiana which aspired to the "straight-out" organship, strikes its colors. O'Conor is to blame for it all.—Cincinnati Enquirer.

Kerr and Conner at Newport. NEWPORT, IND., Sept. 12,1872. Editor of Terre Haute Gazette:

Owing to the inclemency of the weather, the meeting of Kerr and Conner at this place to-day was not largely attended. But notwithstanding the rain poured down until after noon, about three hundred persons filled the Court House to hear these distinguished orators. Mr. Kerr was first introduced, and in his pleasant, affable, clear, logical manner of addressing his auditors, proceeded to arraign President Grant arid the Republican party fer their robberies and breaches of trust and duty. His argumeut was so convincing in its simplicity, couched in such elegant language, and delivered in such a dignified manner, that it went home to the hearts of his hearers, and will bear good fruit in October and November. Old Republicans were free to confess that Mr. Kerr's speech was the ablest and best-toned they have listened to this campaign. In fact, no man present could take any exception to it whatever.

So convincing was his speech, so full of logic and truth, and so potent in its influence, that to-day the Radicals are holding in the Auditor's office a secret meeting. Sam. Magill and Mr. Cheadle, of your city, are present to give instruction to their brethren. These sages that come so for to give instruction will find all plans they may lay will be defeated in Vermillion county. All we want to carry the county is a fair way, and another speech from Kerr. Send us such men often, and in return we will bring you, as the fruits of their labors, increased gains for "Universal Amnesty apd Impartial Suffrages" ...

VIENNA, Sept. 14.—Thedeath of Aldrecht is denied. Hopes are entertain'ed in his recovery.

GENEVA, Sept. 14.—We have the highest official authority for the statement that the dispatch telegraphed hence by the agent of the A. P. A. on the 6th inst., stating that the total award was $17,500,00®, is entirely correct. The four arbitrators who will sign the judgment are dams, Schelpis, Staempfli and Itajaba. iThe British arbitrator Cockburu refuse&sfco accede, and repudiates the award, except ia'^e case of the Alabama. Four arbitrators one give judgment in the case of the Mfriiida and America, and three against twPj^Jthe case of the Shenandoah. The other^laims are dis missed.

BERLIN, Sept. 14.—At the ConfefWBce Emperor William refused any concessit in favor of Denmark.

Bismark, replying to an address of the deputation of the English Protestants against the Jesuits, said England's best work had been a political and religious freedom. The battle of the Germans is to combine religion and peace with liberty of conscience.

CHICAGO, September 14.—The Democrats and Liberals of the Second district met at Madron yesterday. They nominated Hon. G. B. Smith for Congress also passed resolution endorsing the Cincinnati and Baltimore platform and candidates.

SPRINGFIELD, Sept. 14.—Mr. W. W. Krithner, manager of the W. U. telegraph in this city, was brought before the Grand Jury again on the question as to who sent the dispatch to the Tribune. They compelled Mr. Krithner to answer, and he did so. He could not tell who sent the dispatch, but he did give an opinion as to whose handwriting the manuscript was in. The name of the sender was not attached to the duplicate. It is understood that the Grand Jury failed to fix the authorship on any one, and to-night it is rumored that further prosecution of the case before the Grand Jury will cease, upon the condition that the missing letters shall be returned to Judge Ledlie. The question as to who stole them will probably remain unanswered.

Governor J. M. Palmer proposes, at the close his Gubernatorial term, to engage in the prosecution of the law business in this city. To this end he has entered into partnership witn his son, John M. Palmer, Jr., who has returned from Carlinville here and opened an office.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.—One of the greatest boat races which has taken place for some time, and which is attracting great attention in sporting circles, is a single scull contest for one thousand dollars between Ellis Ward and John Biglin, at Nyack, next Thursday. In betting, Ward is the favorite. There are no takers on even bets, and only bets of odds in favor of Ward are made. Both men are actively training for the race, which no doubt will be hotly contested.

Wall street was startled yesterday forenoon by the announcement that a heavy defalcation had occurred in the banking and brokerage house of Wm. B. Clerk, 27 Broad street. It is stated that Richard B. Butler, recently admitted as pnitner in the house, had during Clerk's absence in the country, converted various securities, amounting to about one hundred thousand dollars, into gold, and left the city. Clerk arrived in the city in the early part of the week, and after a careful examination, discovered that a number of securities were missing. Butler has not since been seen, and it is supposed has gone to South America. The defalcation will not probably financially affect Clerk's house, which is of long standing.

General Sherman is expected in the steamship Baltic from Europe, which is due here either to-day or to-morrow. Mrs. Sherman arrived yesterday from Washington, and wfil await the General'^arrival at the National House.

The recent failures of grocery and provision traders in Baltimore do not seriously affect any firms in this city, and it is stated at the Produce Exchange that most of the Baltimore firms which have suspended will make such, arrangements with creditors as will enable them to shortly resume business operations.

Since the 4th inst. the sunff of one hundred and sixty th6usand dollars has been paid by the Pennsylvania agent here to disabled soldiers and sailors, widows and orphans.

Mr. Greeley returned to the city yesterday, having left Johnsbury, Vt., Tuesday evening. He has accepted an invitation of the managers of the Industrial Exhibition at Newark, N. J., to visit the rink, and will be present next Mouday evening.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 14.—It is asserted here, on seemingly good authority, that Goldsmith Maid is a igare formerly be-

longing to Malcolm Gill, of Girard county, Kentucky. She was supposed to have been stolen, some four or five years ago, at the time his stable in Nicholasville was burned. The report is that Gill's trainer saw her in the hands of her present owner and recognized her, and that suit Is to be instituted for her possession.

RICHMOND, IND., Sept. 14.—About 4 P. M. yesterday an old man named Scbultz was struck by a freight train and fatally injured. He was in the act of picking up his hat which had dropped in getting off the train.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 14.—Miss Leslie Hester, correspondent of the New York Democrat, Australian Mail and Hawaian Advertiser, is in the city, representing these papers, as also the California Horticultural Society, in the pomological display at the Exhibition next week.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 14.—The number of deaths for the past week was 108, two of which were from, small-pox. It will be seen by this the falsety of the reports existing in other cities as to its alarming prevalence here.

The small-pox is reported as raging in Newport, Ky. Wm. Showers of Elizabethtown, Ky,, who came here to visit the exposition with his daughter, has been missing since Tupsday last. He left the Gibson House in the morning, saying he would beback in a few minutes. It is thought he was murdered, as he had some $900 or $1000 on his person. His daughter left for home yesterday.

LEXINGTON, KY.,September14—Hon. Curtis F. Barnham has declined the Republican nomination for Congressman from the Eighth District, on account of physical disability aud business interests. W. O. Bridley or Col. Silas Adams, will be substituted.

MANSFIELD, O., Sept. 14.—The reported deaths by telegraph of Mrs. Phillips and Mr. Zent, from injuries received

Independence Railroad disaster,

was an error. Both are reported rapidly recowha^g. [Special drefaatgljes to the Ind. Sentinel.]

MITCHELL, ftw^JSeptember 13.—Hon, George W. Julian 9|^^e here to-day to the largest and most elilhusiastic gathering of the campaign. 1|||..speech was a telling one against the prewit corrupt Administration, giving excellent reasons why the Republicans shouldasupport Greeley and Brown, Hendrick8«.nd reform. No man has spokeu here whn^has been better received and listened to w: more attention. The display of wago mottoes, banners, music and artille was admirable. The Liberal cau gaining here rapidly.

At the close of his speech three rousing cheers were given for Greeley and Brown, Hendricks and Cravens, D. W. Voorhees and our county ticket.

GREENCASTLE,

Grant rally here to-day, considering the labor and effort, was a regular fizzle, and had a depressing effect upon the faithful present. The women and children in wagons made a good display, but there was a singular absence of voters, and outside of the strangers present from Henry, Shelby and Hamilton counties, including the women, children and Democrats, there was a beggarly account of empty benches. The speeches of General Hall, of Maine, and Colonel Trusler, were of the usual order, but entirely destitute of magnetism. They were insipid and fell still-born upon a dead audience. A few more such speeches and Grantism will soon be effectually played out.

SEYMOUR, IND., Sept. 13.—Hon. J. B. Ryan addressed a large number of our citizens at the wigwam to-night. He made a most effective and powerful speech, and was listened to with intense interest. His statement of the retrenchment of nearly two thousand dollars in the expenses of the State Government during 1872, compared with Radical rule for 1870, was received with cheers and hearty approval.

The speech will do us much good. After the speaking closed at the wigwam, the crowd assembled there having learned that the Hon. George W. Julian was stopping at the Harvey House, repaired thither with the 8eymour cornet band and honored that distinguished gentleman with a serenade.

Mr. Julian responded to the compliment paid him in a speech of twenty minutes, which was received with rounds of applause. This impromptu meeting closed by giving three rousing cheers for Julian, Hendricks and Greeley. Set old Jackson down for eleven hundred.
