WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25^872.

FROM what we learn, Gov. Woodford's speech at the Wigwam last evening, must have been one of the ablest delivered in this place during the campaign, on the Republican side of the question. He had the good sense not to abuse BO great and good a man as Horace Greeley, and not seek to deceive his hearers by underestimating the strength of the Lib. eral and Reform movement, which is increasing in strength and power every moment. Did other speakers pursue the same course, the Grant party would not have cause to be so ashamed of this canvass, as it will after the overwhelming defeat which is awaiting it, has overtaken it.

WE find the folllowing in the Madison Courier: "If any man attempts to haul down the American flag, bail him on the spot."— II. G.

If auy man wants to find an editorial dunce, send him to Madison.

A MILK wagon ran away on Seventh street yesterday, and deprived several families of coloring matter for coffee.— Exp s.

What a novel spectacle it must have been to witness a milk wagon running away!

JACOB D. HERKIMER, ESQ., wife, «on, and sister-in-law, Miss Mary McGregor, have returned from their summer's sojourn along the cool shores of the northern lakes, and once more enjoy the comforts and conveniences of the magnificent McGregor mansion,corner sixth and Chestnut streets.

MESSRS. HUNTER & FOUTS have not yet secured their sundown and team the last they heard of the turnout was at Bowling Green, Sunday. The buggy and horse they lost sometime since, were discovered in the woods of Vermillion county, where they had, evidently, been left by the thief, who feared detection, did he attempt to dispose of them.

A REPORTER of the Chicago Tribune, in writing up a court case, wrote from his notes: Chandler's life was impure the intelligent compositor of that sheet made him say in type, that Chandler's wife was impure. The reporter is searching for the intelligent compositor with deadly weapons, while Chandler, his wife and all their friends, are in hot pursuit of the reporter.

CONDUCTOR GEO. PENN is acting Master of Transportation of the Terre Haute fc Chicago Railroad during the absence of D. E. Rige in Ohio. President Collett being in New York and Assistant Superintendent Nesbett having resigned, the entire responsibiliti' of operating the road rests upon George's broad though youthful shoulders. By the way, he is worthy of the trust.

THE South Reud Tribune has a communication Irom a correspondent criticising newspaper men who choose to construct a display head over a crime. Now, we'll bet that correspondent wouldn't take a paper that did not display such events, that he might the more readily find the details. At any rate, that is the case with the great majority of newspaper patrons, and the supply of journalistic sensation is governed to a greater or less degree by the demand.

THE 5th and 7lh of October will long be remembered in the political history of Terre Haute and Indiana. On theoth Hons. Gratz Brown, George II. Pendleton, Cassius M. Clay and others will speak in behalf of Liberalism in this city. On tl:e 7th, Hon. Henry Wilson and Secretary Boutwell will speak in behalf of Radicalism. These men are real representatives of two powerful political parties, and we bespeak for them large audiences.

THE South Bend Iribvne lias what it characterizes a wonderful story about a young woman in Burlington, Iowa, who marries,gives birth to a child, is divorced from her husband, because her beard and mustache took a notion to develop, and finally marries a woman.

THAT GRAND RALLY.

Eighty-five Whites and Eleven "Called."

Very Thin.

HEADQUARTERS GRANT ESC ORT, 1 Sept. 24, 1872.

G. O. No-4.] The Battalion will assemble this evening at 7:30 o'clock sharp for the purpose of receiving Gov. Stewart L. Woodford, of New York.

The line will be formed on Main street, right resting on Sixth street, facing north. Commanders of companies will please be prompt. By order of

W. B. sfeiLLiro, Col. Com'd'g.

\V. H. STERNE, Lieut, and Adjt.

The above is taken from "Grant's own paper" of yesterday, and it was supposed that a torchlight procession of immense proportions would be the result. As soon as it was dark a large crowd collected on Sixth and Main streets to witness the "send off," but, alas, for all human cal culations, the "Rads"wouldn't rally. Our special reporter was on the spot to give an accurate account of the affair, and furni.-hes us the following report of numbers by wards First Ward, 33 men Second Ward, 11 men Third Ward, 22 white men, and 11 "culled pus^ons Fifth Ward, 19 men.

By actual count, less than one hundred men was all the. "rigiment" could muster, and Col. Sliillito was nowhere to be seen. The Lieutenant Colonel had command of a squad of Third warders, and the Major was very busy selling drugs.

It is no use, gentlemen the bottom is knocked out, and they won't "enthuse" any more.

THE marriage of Mr. Anderson and Miss Shannon, last evening, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, was celebrated in appropriate style. After the ceremony at the church, the couple and a few friends repaired to the palatial mansion of P. Shannon, Esq., where they were entertained in princely style until a late hour, when the groom and his bride were escorted to their new home on Fourteenth street, where they will in future abide.

NOTWITHSTANDING the recent raise in the price of oysters at Baltimore, and the exhorbitant freight charges, Alexander & Johnson will sell to their customers here, at the old prices. This is a fact that should be set down to their credit, because they will not much more than make expenses on bivalves, whereas they made money before the syndicate was organized in the Monumental City.

The Coming Races.

The entries for the coming races at the Indianapolis Trotting Park next week are very large, and embrace some of the very best horses in the country. Among the more notable animals already in the stables at the Park, are the following

Kilburn Jim, who beat the celebrated horse Jim Irving, and a field of horses, at Utica, in August, in 2:24}.

Abraham Johnson's celebrated young mare Jennie, who beat Gazelle and a large field at the same meeting in 2:23J.

Red Cloud, who won the free for all trot at Pittsburg, week before last, in 2:22i. Flora Betiee, who won the game race at the Ulica races in August, beating a first-class field, among whom wereSleepy John, Zulu, Dauntless, Strideaway and others, and also won the free for all race at Chicago this month, in 2:22.

Pilot Temple, whose record is familiar to all frequenters of the turf, and who trotted at the races here last fall.

John H., who won the three minute race at Chicago this month. Thomas L. Young, who wou the three minute race at Cleveland, in July, in 2:283.

Grace, the celebrated gray mare, owned by A. M. Wilson, of Youngstown, Ohio.

And the celebrated greeu horse, Matchey, owned by T. S. Briggs, of Cincinnati.

Here is the best field ever entered at one meeting in the West, and in any race it will be hard, if not impossible, to pick the winner. Without doubt the races singly, and the meeting as a whole, will be the most exciting and interesting of any that have ever taken place in Indiana.

The track is being placed in the best possible condition. The managers are displaying great energy in the matter of preparation, and all arrangements both for turfmen and visitors will be complete and ample. Much of the success of the coming meeting is due to the zeal and energy of the President, Mr. Tuller, the Secretary, Mr. Jordan, and the Superintendent, Mr. Pouder. ~Mr. Tuller is on the ground every day, supervising the work of preparing the track, cutting away the trees which obstruct the view of the track, and erecting new sheds and stables. There are already 140 stables completed, and more are building. The amphitheater has been enlarged to double its former dimensions.

OLD BRAINS.—Several persons of some temporary distinction in this country have been improperly, as we think, styled "Old Brains." Greeley is the man for that name. His speeches made during the last week show that he carries more wisdom and patriotism, hearty humanity and practical information under his hat, than any other man in America.— Cincinnati Commercial.

The Departure of Mr. Greeley. Mr. Greeley left the city by the 3:45 train on the Cincinnati & Indianapolis Junction Railroad yesterday morning. The train consisted of a parlor car, two coaches and baggage car, drawn by engine No. 10, and arrived at Hamilton on time. It arrived at Connersville at 6:20 A. M., and there Mr. Greeley was called out by a crowd which had gathered at the depot to greet him, and responded to the call in a ten minutes speech. At College Corner, which station was reached at 7:40, another crowd was assembled, and in response to their urgent call Mr. Greeley gave them a ten minutes talk. The trip was made safely and pleasantly. Mr. Greeley was greeted at all points with genuine and hearty enthusiasm.—Indianapolis Sentinel.

MR. GREELEY'S speeches during his present journey are alp&At perfect. He has developed a capjjfcfly nr speaking which is marvellous, his efforts ail being impromptu. We dou't know a public man with such a faculty of saying the right thing at the right place. Some of his short speeches are gems of composition and idea. His talent in this line is in striking contrast with Gen. Grant who can't speak two oonsecutive sentences. That is the kind of man to have in the Presidential chair, one who can think and write and

VIENNA, Sept. 24—The Austrian Red Book, which has just Appeared, contains sixty-nine documents. The most noteworthy are Audrassey's diplomatic circulars on assuming his present offices, and the replies of the Austrian representatives, showing confidence in his appointment at home and abroad. They also contain interesting dispatche3 on the rights of private property at sea in time of war, and on the labor question in England.

CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 16, via HAVANA, Sept. 23.—The reports that Minister Nelson had neglected the cases of several Americans who were in trouble, is pronounced untrue. The parties concerning whom these charges were made are generally adventurers, and proved to be unentitled to American citizenship.

Mr. Nelson has recovered from his recent illness and is now engaged in arranging the affairs of the mixed committee, with a likelihood of success. He will soon leave for the United States with the remains of his wife, which will be taken to Indiana for interment. Mr. Selton has entered on his duties as Consul General for the United States, in Mexico.

Negotiations for the submission of General Diaz continue and are likely to succeed.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.—Ex-Governor Curtin has returned from Saratoga somewhat improved in health, and if strong enough will speak in Pennsylvania next week.

The action of banks which refused last week to pay checks that had not passed through the Cleariug House, is being sharply discussed by the press and the public. The recusant banks quickly receded from their position, but the city banks are not certifying checks of their dealers as good through the Cleariug House.

They claim there is no other course left them in settling the enormous daily transactions of brokers, running from one hundred to one hundred and twenty millions per day. The settlements could not'otherwise be made on the basis of only forty million greenbacks and greenback certificates in all the banks. The Times claims that this is all right and proper, but the World and Journal of Commerce assail the reservation very sharply.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.—There was a great recovery in the stock market today, accompanied with an unusual flurry of shorts in covering speculative operations recently made for the decline. Panama Railroad and Pacific Mail shares are the features of the day, with a large advance in prices foi these securities.

In other railway securities there have been higher markets with considerable advance in quotations. At 11 o'clock Pacific Mail sold up to 73 Panama weakened down to 172. Speculation created at the mart exclusively in these specialties with enormous transaction. In Erie there is less excitement with a decline of 2 per cent, since last week.

The European steamers Java and Halloud arrived from Liverpool this morn* ing with large amounts of Erie stock, which has been sent to New York for marketing, and which has probably caused the decline.

CHEYENNE, W. T., Sept. 25.—It has been snowing along the Union Pacific Railway, here and westward, last night and to-day.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.—Yesterday morning Senor Ramon Cespedes, Cuban Commodore, Lieutenaut Chevan, of the Cuban Navy, and John D. Townsend, counsel for the Republic of Cuba, visited the State Department and filed the protest of Cespades in behalf of the Republic of Cuba, in reference to the seizure of the Pioneer, together with an application of the counsel to the Attorney General for consent to open the default taken against the Pioneer. The Attorney General's decision denies the application.

Reports of the officers show that the Resolute left New York with a full cargo of merchandise, and that she was entirely unarmed beyond two rusty guns and a few worthless shell which were purchased for ballast, and duly entered as such on manifest that no proposition was made by the Cuban authorities to purchase the vessel until it subsequently reached the island of Hayti. She was there purchased and paid for, and it was not until the vessel was on the high seas, that her flag was hoisted and name •hanged to Pioneer. Her armament was taken aboard at the Cuban depot in the West Indies, and that Mr. Chevean took no account ot the rusty guns and shells as ballast in making the purchase of the vessel that the Pioneer was never in the United States waters until seized and take!) in by the United1States Tevenue cutter.

LOUISVILLE, Sept. 25.—The National Liberal Colored Convention, met in this city at noon to-day. There was a fine attendance. The convention was called to order by Wm. B. Chambers, after which Rev. J. M. Williams delivered au address of welcome, and prayer was then offered by Dr. C. Davis, of Lexington, Kentucky.

The principal work of the convention will be to issue addresses to the colored people of the United States, advising them as to what is the best course to pursue in the pending campaign.

The following States are represented: Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, District of Columbia, Tennessee, Massachusetts, Iowa, Missouri, Nevada, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Delaware, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New York and Mississippi.

FRANKFORT, KY., Sept. 25 —A fright, ful state ot affairs is reported in Washington county. A band of armed men attacked the laborers on the Cumberlaud & Ohio Railroad, drove them off, burned their sheds and took tlieir horses.

The matter was referred to Governor Leslie who sent the Adjutant General to investigate. Meu are at work on the road in another part of the county. The vigilants notified the contractor that he must cease work or take the consequences. The contractor purchased double barrelled shot guns and armed his men, and proposes to fight it out. The men wof|k with guns by their sides and stand guard,,nights. The vigilants greatly outnumber t'iem, and a conflict is expected every night to originate.

The cause of the twmble is the failure of the company to locate the road as proposed when the county voted subscription. It is probable that tne. Governor will order out the militia fcrprotect the workmen.

CLEVELAND,Sept. 25.—TheSteamboat Men's Convention assembled at nine. A report of the Executive Committee was read in private session and approved. Resolutions for the prevention of collisions between steam and sailing vessels by the proper inspection of lights, etc., were referred to the Committee onResolutions.

The Executive Committee presented a resolution changing the meeting into a permanent central organization, to be known as the "Central Board of Steam Navigation."

A committee of five was appointed by the Chair to prepare a constitution and by-laws carried. The convention then adjourned until this afternoon.

PITTSBURG, Sept. 25.—The war between the old Pittsburg Gas Company and new Consolidated Gas Company is over for the present. Judge Kirkpatrick decided that the latter company has a right to lay mains on the streets already occupied by the former. One of the main arguments against the new corporation was that two gas pipes could not be laid on the same street without interfering with one another.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 25.—The Coroner has concluded the inquest on the body of John T. Conway, the lad killed by a blow administered by a Grant Guard in the procession on Saturday night last who objected to his hurrahing for Greeley. The jury rendered a verdict of death from the effects of injuries resulting from a blow given by an unknown persou.

COLUMBUS, OHIO, Sept. 24.—Search for Dunlap, the murderer of Carpenter, has been thus far unsuccessful, but Marshal Engelke is of the opinion that he is escreted somewhere in Pickaway county.

CENTERVILLE, IND. Sept. 24.—The County Fair opened here to-day under favorable auspices. There is a splendid display of live stock, fruits and vegetables. The Fine Art Hall is especially attractive. A number of fast horses are here, and au exciting exhibition of speed will be witnessed on Thursday and Friday.

Last night, Hi. Strayer, our City Marshal, was assaulted with a razor by a drtufken negro named Bass, from Richmond, whom he was attempting to arrest. The would-be assassin is now in jail.

A Grant rally, which had been widely advertised for Williamsburg, in this county, to-day, was almost a failure. The Grantiteslook blue, aud the Liberals are jubilant.

RUSHVILLE, Sept. 24.—The Radicals assembled here in very respectable numbers to-day to hear a speech from the so-called Hon. John. A. Bingham, of Ohio, almost, if not quite, the last survivor of the Surratt Commission. His argument was solely devoted to a defense of the Ku Klux bill passed by Congress, and the same old tale rehashed heretofore, made by him and others to divert the attention of his audience from the thievings and corruptions which have been and are still going on under this Administration.

The meeting was estimated as not being as large as the Hendricks meeting last week, after sending men all over the country to drum up a crowd. The reporter here for the Journal estimated that meeting at about 600. I don't propose to tell such an enormous falsehood as that reporter did. The meeting, he said, numbered between 2,000 and 2,500. Our meeting was not intended to be a grand demonstration theirs was, and was a failure when it did not come up to ours in numbers. We have beaten them in our meetings, and intend to beat them at the election.

There is no present hope for this country except' in the election' of Horace Greeley the defeat of Grant and of the corrupt wb&b BupjKjrt^ him.

Masterly and Patriotic Speech at Hamilton.

His Opinion or Indiana.

CLEVELAND, Sept. 24.

MEN OF OHIO I bear you joyful greetings from the people of Indiana. [Applause.] I have looked into their clear eyes, I have seen the light of heaven reflected from their honest faces, and I tell you, that as well as I can read men, I have read them, and feel assured that on the night of the 8th of October next, they will send forth a majestic voice on the side of national reconciliation. [Great applause.] The great Liberal wave now sweeping over the country is destined to efface all distinctions of race and all past bitterness, and to wipe out all this, will scarcely find anywhere a heartier response than from that people. Last night not less than 50,000 of them met us at Indianapolis to say that so far as their State was concerned they speak in no equivocal voice. They are with you, they are for you, Liberals of Ohio, and all other States, in declaring that strife having ceased, hatred shall cease, proscription shall cease, disfranchisement shall ceas?, and the whole American people shall be united under oue flag, and, animated by oue patriotic impulse, shall march forward once more on that career of greatness and prosperity, planned aud prepared for them by our revolutionary fathers. [Applause.] Those fathers, when we were but thirteen little States, scattered along the Atlantic border, as though prophetically, called themselves the Continental army. Ihe Continental army, that was the army which fought the battle of the revolution. Though our country then covered but a narrow strip of the Atlantic seaboard, in spirit aud aspiration, the American E igie looked over across this whole broad land and said: "This is all mine thi* shall all be planted and watered^y the people who acknowledge my ascendency." So, friends, we are resolved not merely that we shall be united in geography, that there shall be one Government from Texas to Maine, and to Oregon, but that there shall be one willing, joyful, cordial, united people. [Applause.] Not penned together by bayonets, not stricken down and l^eld prostrate by foi*ce, but all of irl^em, North and South, East and West, rejoicing that we are Americans, and that one flag covers them all, one law rules thetn all, that oue country embraces and enfolds them all. [Applause.] There is no Aerobe doubt at last thiat all must be as we propose. We can not hate each other forever "w^can not keep raking up the stories of Ande^onville, Salisbury and Libby Prison, ^to

The Call for Reform.

If further argument in favor of establishing the one-term principle were needed, it would be found iu the present demoralized condition of the public service. Everybody knows what a prostitution of public means to private ends is likely to follow a determination to reelect an unscrupulous Administration but we doubt if the most desponding ever dreamed that there would be such an abandonment of decency in the Government as we see now. Perhaps, in the natural prominence which personal character and personal unfitness for off! ?e assume in any cauvass, we are in danger of overlooking the causes which lie behind the defaulting, corrupt, careless, and servile officials. Who supposes that we should see such a demoralization of the public servicesuch a diversion of the functions of the Government from legitimateuses, if the President were not trying to re-elect himsell? Here are the Secretary of the Interior, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Attorney General, and other high officers of the Government, forsakiug their seats and neglecting their duties in order to add their individual aud official forces to tlie re-election campaign.

Common Pleas Court.

Slate of Indiana, County of Vigo. In the Vigo Court ot Common Pleas, Saturday, September It, 1872. Present, Hon. John T. Scott, sole Judge.

mnlro thpa» nsnnlp hnatilp in hpnrt. tn term, and the business thereof not being commaKe tnese people Hostile in nearc pieted, it is therefore ordered that this court

those who live below the Ohio river. Wereshall learn at last, we shall come at last, to be one people. Why not now? Seven years ago the last shot was fired seven years aud more ago the last Confederate flag was surrendered or furled, and still we go on holding conventions, military conventions,to emphasise and aggrandize the triumph of one part over another part. I rejoice in that coming triumph of the whole nation, when the people of the South shall go to the people of the North. We rejoice that our country was not divided, that our mistaken efforts to have a Southern Confederation were defeated. We find at last it was our destiny and our blessing to be a part of the great American people. So the South will say the time shall be when the States south of the Ohio river shall rejoice, heartily as you can rejoice," that slavery has passed away forever. They will feel that the great chain was lifted from their necks, the shackles w«re broken which bound their limbs when four million of Americau people were liberated aud made citizens of the country, when they had formerly been slaves. They will yet realize that Virginia and the Carolinas, .and Georgia shall be richer and nobler, freer and purer than they would have been so long as a part of their people were held in bondage. They will realize that what was their weakness has, through emancipation, become their strength, and they will rejoice that nothing remains to mar the unity or cloud the destiny of our country. So, their fellow-citizens, it having beeu asked of them to surrender secession and abandon slavery, to enfranchise tlieir colored fel-low-citizens, did everything reasonable aud proper to make our triumph perfect, now we say, and they say, let hatred and bitterness, let contention and jealousy perish forever. [Applause.] Let^gs forget that we have fought let us remember only that we have made peace. Let us say that there shall be no degradation, no people over whom we triumph. Our triumph is their triumph, our triumph is the uplifting of every one of the common platforms of American liberty and Americau nationality. Our triumph is not the triumph of a section, it is not the triumph of race, it is not the triumph of a class it is the triumph of the American people castine off the shackles that bouudsome, breaking down a wall or partition, that separated us. Let us go ou to make us all in life, in heart, and in purpose, the people, the one people of*the great American Republic. Fellow-:itizetip, to this work of reconstruction 1 dedicate myself. I would not feel it was a triumph for me to be chosen your President if any part of the American people should have a right to feel that my triumph was tlieir degradation. I believe the triumph of the Liberal cause will be the triumph of States that vote against it. [Applause.] That there is no county in the Union which will not be better worth living in and more valuable because we have so acted, so approved, so been responded to the American people that there are no longer lines of separation and alienation to divide us. To this end I have struggled since the last cannon shot was fired in the war of secession and disunion (cries of "That's so,") and to this end I have hoped and aspired. This end seems to be not far distaut. People of Ohio, I entreat you so to act, so to speak, so to vote that every one, on the evening of the 8th of next month, shall fee) that he has taken a manful part toward the reconciliation of the whole American people to their government, toward the rebuilding, toward the perfection, the rounding out of this American Republican nationality. [Prolonged cheers.]

being now necessary for this court to adjourn, bv reason of the expiration of this

ourn until the 14th day of October, 1872, at tbAhdtir of 9 o'clock in the forenoon and it is ordered that public notice of such adjournment be given by the publication of a copy of this order for one week in each of the daily newspapers published in the city of Terre Haute, Vigo county, Indiana.
