Additional Lcc.il News.

»SUPT. SIMPSON, of tho Vandalia, is in the city.

FAIR week is not HO fait—so far as the weather is concerned.

SUPT. PALMATEKR, of the street car line, constantly cries for more quinine.

A LIBERAL club of 70 members was organized at Montrose, near the nail works, last evening.

ALL the GAZETTE readers should attend the Fair if they don't, we shall tell them but little about it.

IT is the good name of Billy Moreau that is damaged, according to his complaint. A jury may decide that he has but a very small stock of that article.

AN Indianapolitan who recently came to this city on a visit, observing a high board fence around the gas works, innocently asked if tho fair grounds were in that enclosure

THE Evansville Journal Company made a first-class selection when they added young S. D. Terry to their editorial staff. Though a young man, he is an experienced and brilliant journalist.

CONDUCTOR LYONS, of the Vandalia, has been down with the Wabash chills, muscular as lie is. When the shake was on, he would shock the earth for blocks in the vicinity, like an infantile earthquake.

COL. DOWLINQ is preparing a paper on "what he knows about crow." From what we know about the Colonel's abilities, the paper will be the most interesting one ever read in this city on an ornithological theme.

THE cat duett," in the Humpty Dumpty performance is not calculated to ploaso a refined audience.—Express.

We observed the refined representative of the Express in convulsions of merriment during its rendition

THE Montrose Greeley Club met and organized last night with seventy members. Another meeting will be held at Weldon's grocery, .near the nail works, on Friday evening, at 7 o'clock P. M. All are requested to attend.

\V. C. MOREAU, not having made as much out of Mr. Grant's Louisville sideshow as he was led to expect, has brought fiuit against the State Sentinel, claiming damages of $20,000. What a nice character the Sentinel will ^rove for him if the suit is pressed.

THE benign physiognomy of Rev. Tennant was lighted up last evening with something more than ordinary brilliancy, as he sat placidly back in his chair, very near the side of Miss Fletcher, and facing the Radical hosts, whose torches, dimmed and faded, sent forth a sickly glare o'er all that shown around about them.

THE Hon. George W. Julian at the Temple on Friday evening. This distinguished gentleman should be heard by thousands of people for the great cause of freedom owes him a debt that can never be paid, especially is this true of the black race, which can never repay the debt of gratitude they owe him by their present course.

MR. GRANT'S little organ, in Ross' Printing House Square, is sad and silent on the Credit Mobilier scandal. Since this damaging development, the poet of Printing House Square has not printed a line on the Defrees indictment. In frantic endeavors to discover a mere mote in the Liberal optic, the bard fails to see the ponderous obstruction in the Radical eye.

THE complaint OF Will G. Moreau against the Setitinel Company, for libel, was filed in the Civil Circuit Court yesterday. He claims $20,000.—IndianapolisSentinel.

Billy is needy, and tne Sentinel should give him a cent on the thousand and thus effect a compromise. If that amount will embarrass the Sentinel Company let them give him an order for a square meal at the Circle House, and thus have the noxious papers withdrawu.

THE pantomime performance of the Abbott-Kiralfy Combination, at the grand Opera House last evening, though not witnessed by very many persons on account of counter-attractions, was of a high order of the art. In fact, betterpantomimiststhan the majority of the company, do not appear even in metroplitan cities. The laughable play of Humpty Dumpty was rendered in a most effective 6tyle for a traveling company, the costumes being fantastio and beautiful. This evening the combination will appear to a fuller house iu an entire change of prosi gramme.

Tlie County Fair.

The attendance at the grounds of th Vigo Agricultural Society to-day rather attenuated because of the inau spiciousness of the weather. Vehicles^of every character, however, had been im provised for the transport of the masses to the scene of the exhibition, if needed Trains run over the T. H. & I. road during the day, but they, as were the vehicles referred to, were allowed to "go beg ging," as it were.

The liberal premiums offered iu the various departments attract many exhib itors from abroad, and hence we will not attempt personal allusions at this time, lest we do injustice by neglecting some worthy exhibitors, not having time and space for reference to all "who have anything on exhibition. All the various departments are well represented from this and adjoining counties and States.

A lively interest is being manifectedin the exhibition by the exhibitors and if our citizens do well their part the County Fair can but succeed.

The officers of the association are striving for the attainment o/ greater ends in the present exhibition than any that has preceded it. Let them be seconded in their efforts by all.

To-morrow the following programme will be observed 10 A. M.—All the committees will commence work in the halls and pens. 10 A.M.—The exhibition of horses for general purposes will begin and proceed in the order as arranged in the list. 10 A. M.—The exhi bition of cattle in their order will begin. 2 P. M.—Bread, butter, pies and cakes will be examined. 3 P. M.—Trotting race for a purse of 5300.

The races are to be made a special attraction, and there will be a lively competition, incident to the premiums offered.

Change of Firm.

"Ed" Johnson and "Ab" Alexander have purchased the business interest of T. J. Langford, wholesale whisky estab lishment and fresh oyster depot, and will continue the business henceforth under the firm name of Johnson & Alexander. Both of Mr. Langford's successors are young men, who have previously been employed in the establishment in responsible positions. The former has been head clerk for years, and both thoroughly understand the business. Having moved into new and airy rooms on Main street, nearly opposite the marble front building, they hold themselves constantly at the service of all the old customers of the concern, and as many new ones as want to patronize a first-class stock in their line.

Many will miss Tom's genial face from the house but will rejoice that they will not meet strangers when they call.

Matrimonial.

We have the peculiar pleasure of announcing the marriage of the Hon. Richard Dunnigan to Miss Mary L. Adams, which event occurred at the Catholic Church yesterday, Rev. Father Markette officiating. The happy pair left the city in the afternoon for a short bridal tour, carrying with them the wellwishes of many friends.

We unite with many others in "long live and jever prosper the taleuted groom and his beautiful bride."

We have known Mr. Dunnigan for two years, and duriug that time have watched his career as an able, conscientious lawyer and an honest politician. The bride is every way worthy of her husband, and will be a fit companion for him, when in the course of human events, including a large Liberal majority, he goes to Indianapolis to take his place in the State Senate.

PROF. LIPPARD has secured the promenade hall of the Grand Opera House, and will, at an early day, open a dancing school therein, where he will teach the art Terpsichoreau after the latest and most approved styles. Meanwhile, those who wish to attend or seud children should call at the drug store of Buntin & Armstrong and leave their names. The hall is being fitted up specially for the purpose, and as the Professor is an accomplished gentleman and teacher of this branch of aesthetics, we expect the accomplishments of the rising generation to be improved.

LENT'S circus performed to a limited audience last afternoon, but in the evening they "made it pay," we feel assured for the immense tent was crowded pretty full. The performance was of the highest order of the art circus. The feats of horsemanship, taken all in all, were never excelled. The nonsense of the clowns, as nonsense, was certainly never excelled, though alway equalled, being mere repetition.

THE special time-card of the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railroad will be fouud at the head of the column on local notice page. Mr, Grant's paper put it on the inside, causing even the pious to profaue because they could not find it. Some said it was almost as difficult to find as a copy of the paper.

THE whole editorial corps of Mr. Grant's Terre Haute paper were happy in the sunshine of Tilly's smiles last evening, as she delivered herself of the usual tirade against those who have independence enough to oppose Mr. Grant.

THE resignation of Rev." S. Burford creates profound regret in church and social circles, as we anticipated it would when we made the announcement, yesterday.

A GENERAL western higeraof gamblers took place last night over the Vandalia & St. Louis roads, even ?3ob Smith having picked up money enough to take him to Danville. The thieves have come to the conclusion that pickings duriug State Fair week in this city will be very scattering.— Indianapolik Journal.

IN the county we hear of just one Democrat who is said to have turned to be a Grant supporter. We doubt the

•truthfulness of the rumor

A census of the henroosts of Kokomo show a remarkable fatality within the last week. A ministerial association has been in session there.

Ned Jones of the Vandalia, is spending his "lay-off" in Iowa, and Knowlton is running his "run." The last mentioned has more of a Quakerish look than any man on the road, and the Friends always run to him for information about yearly meetings and sich.

OUR local columns this morning show that Hon. George W. Julian is to speak at the Temple in this city, on Friday evening next, September 20th. As a speaker and a politician Mr. Julian has been one of the foremost men in our country for many years past.

Special dispatch to the Ind. Sentinel. RICHMOND, IND., September 17—The Liberal Republican and Democratic demonstration far exceeds, in numbers and enthusiasm, anything before witnessed in this place.

Hendricks acquitted himself to the entire satisfaction of all who heard him, one of the ablest representations this corrupt Administration, in clear, impersonal and convincing arrangement of its infamies. Mr. Cravens followed him in an able speech of nearly two hours. The people it attendance gave unmistakable evidence of a determination to displace the unscrupulous party, now reveling in the blind riot of power. To-night a torchlight procession of about 1,000 paraded the streets. The wildest enthusiasm prevails. Speeches are being delivered by Judge Gooding and Hon. T. N. Stilwell, to the assembled masses, with good effect.

Fashion Items.

Full sets of dead gold are the last in masculine jewelry. Blue overcoats and gilt buttons will be the style for next winter.

It is said that next winter along dress on the Street will be a thing unknown. Very pretty ladies' cuff's and collars embroidered with cunning flowers will be fashionable this fall.

Ladies and gentlemen promenading together of afternoons this fall are commanded by fashion to walk arm in arm.

Yesterday was a field day on Wall street. The general easy tenor of the money market came to a sudden stop, and money tightened rapidly. Several prominent brokers on the street are said to be in clique to force up the price of gold and tighten the money market at the same time. For some time past they have been buying gold and locking it up. This is making the greenback market easier. To remedy this defect in the scheme of the clique, they have sold out enormous lines of stocks, and as fast as currency was paid over, placed it, as well as gold, under lock and key. Gold and greenbacks are becoming scarce and stocks plenty, but the former at prime and depressed the latter best stock on the list of the Exchange, fell rapidly, aud the price of gold correspondingly advanced. The clique commenced to put on the scrip early in the morning, and it gave them an extra turn nearly every hour in the day. As the price of gold advanced and it becana««vident that the corner was formed the wildest excitement prevailed. The gold room later in the day became more quiet, while in the Stock Exchange, where large interests were
