Additional Local News.

MR. GRANT'S paper in Printing House Square says: The Mail comes out for Grant, and gives Rood reasons why everybody should do the same thing.

Those who have taken the Mail on the strength of its claims as a non-partisan newspaper, will take notice.

THERE is nothing connected with the late election in Indiana that may be regarded as so calamitous as the defeat of Hon. D. W. Voorhees. In a measure it has been caused by the over confidence of his friends, who did not regard such a result possible.—Evansville Courier.

How did it happen that Nibclak came so near suffering a disastrous defeat by Heilman in your own district?

FOREPAUGH'S Menagerie paraded the principal streets in the forenoon, making a magnificent appearance, second only to that of Barnum. Though Barnum is slightly ahead of Forepaugh on street show, he is second inside the canvass. We would advise those of our citizens, who have a due appreciation of menag" erial wonders, to patronize the ohfe how in our city, for it is an Indiana enterprise, and in that line, taken ail in all, is excelled by none that travel the country.

THE Radicals jollified in Indianapolis Friday night, and among others Gen. Thomas M. Browne made a speech in which he said

On the 22d of last February the Republican party of the State committed its standard to my keepings I promised then to talk to my fellow-citizens 250 hours during the canvass. I have kept that promise, and while I cannot say that I will be the next Governor of Indiana, yet I can say that before you stands the man who ought to be the next Governor. ["That's so," and "we believe it."

Thus does the gallant General concede his defeat with the sad sentiment, "it might have been."

The Projected Exposition.

The proposition of Colonel Thomas Dowlingto establish an exposition in this city next fall is meeting with uuiversal favor at the hands of our citizens.

The exposition wili take place at our present fair grounds, and will continue for the period of a month.

Competition will be open to the world, and the premiums will be equally divided between the mechanical and agricultural departments.

The Fair Grounds will be enlarged and improved. Commodious and substantial halls will be erected. In a word, everything will be done to make the Indianapolis Exposition a formidable rival of those annually held in Louisville and Cincinnati, and which contribute so much to the wealth and prosperity of those cities.

We understand that a number of our heaviest capitalists are interested in the enterprise, and have signified their intention of aiding it liberally with their means and influence.

The practicability of the project caunot be questioned when we remember the crowds that thronged our city during the last State Fair, and that also that while it was of local, the projected exhibition will be of national interest.

It has, however, been suggested that the entry fee be increased to correspond with the magnitude of the enterprise. In short, everything will be done to make it a pecuniary success from the outstart. That insured, the Exposition will doubtless become one of the permanent institutions of our city.—State Sentinel.

As HERETOFORE announced Cal Wagner's minstrels, than whom none better exist, will play at the Academy this evening, appearing but for one night. This band of melodists and comedians has always been exceedingly well received in this city heretofore, and their reception to-night will not be unenthusiastic. It should not be forgotten that the famous California Quartette travels with this troupe.—Indianapolis Journal.

HEILMAN, a very wealthy man of Evansville, was understood to be willing to spend $100,000 for a seat in Congress. His negotiation was with the Grant party, and he comes within 128 votes in a district that gave 2,500 Democratic majority two years ago. A little more money, and the managers will pull Mr. Heilman through by contesting Mr. Niblack's seat.—Chicago Tribune.

Hold, Enough.

While Dr. Ham was amputating the fingers of a man who had endeavored to stop a buzz saw with his hand, last Monday (the patient under the influence of chloroform), he discovered that the man had stopped breathing. Remembering that the tongue often dropped back in the mouth aud stopa the air passage, the doctor inserted his finger in the man's mouth to turn the tongue forward. No sooner had the man commenced breathing than his teeth "shut down" on the digit, and the doctor held the man down with one finger between his teeth, and so firmly was be held that the jaws had jto be separated by force. The doctor expressed himself glad when the patient caught his finger, as it was theu certain that he was reoovering from the effects of the chloroform, but h§ was better pleased when lftt go.^jSbirth Bcftd, Union.

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—An address was issued this morning by the National Democratic Committee to the people of the United States, stating that the October elections enable us to form a tolerably accurate idea of the true political situation of the country, in Georgia of the .Liberal victory so unexampled as to take her out of the list of the doubtful States and practically to prouounce in advance a decision of at least 152-5 votes in the Electoral College. To this number it is ouly necessary to add sixty-live votes to elect Greeley aud Brown. In Pennsylvania the distinguished Chairman of the Liberal Committee has eloquently told the method by which this result was accomplished in Ohio, despite the heavy gains for the Liberal and Democratic tfeket, the Grant managers have carried the election by a reduced majority having brought the entire reserve vote to aid. Indiana Democratic and Liberal forces have achieved a most important victory. The moral of these results is that victory is still in plain view for the National ticket, and that energy will insure its victory in Pennsylvania on Tuesday when considered in its causes is the most appalling catastrophe which has ever taken place in this country.

The address concludes by urging the friends of every State to catch inspiration from Georgia and Indiana, and struggle unceasingly [from now until November for reform and au honest Administration of the Government. The addresses were signed by Augustus Schell, Chairman of the Committee.

ST. PAUL. Oct. 14.—Already accounts are coming in of the devastations of the prairie fires in this State aud the adjoining Territory of Dakota. The most destructive fire yet reported, commenced on Tuesday, and swept over the country lying between Lake Traverse and Morris, on the main line of the St. Paul & Pacific Railroad, which burned large quantities of hay and grain, aud a number of dwellings. The full extent of the damage cannot be accurately estimated at present. It is thought it must reach many thousands of dollars.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, October 14.—A sad accident occurred at the transfer grounds here yesterday. An Omaha lady who had come to this side to see her daughter off (n the B. & M. train, attempted to step from the moving cars to the platform, wheu her foot slipped and she was thrown uuder the train, which passed over her left ankle, crushing it to atoms making amputation necessary.

Recoes, who was in command of the Grant and Wilson club engaged in the riot in Covington Saturday evening, publishes a card in to-day's Gazette in which he denies the report that he ordered the negroes to tear down houses. He further states that the negroes were sneered and Jinsulted along the whole line of march, and at the point where the riot took place they were stoned.

This latter is denied by residents and persons injured, all claim that the only provocation that the negroes had, was cheering for Greeley. Three of the injured men are straightout Republicans. The Council of Covington met to-night to investigate the matter.

AURORA, Oct. 13.—The Greeley Club of this city held last night at the City Hall, one of the most enthusiastic meetings of the campaign. Senator Gregg made a rousing speech for Greeley and Brown, which was cheered to the echo. The Liberals aud Democrats are going into the fight with new zeal, determined to give Honest Horace two hundred more majority in Dearborn than Hendricks received at the late election. More than a dozen Republicans have declared for Greeley in this city since last Tuesday. No losses in our ranks.

Mr. Greeley on the October Election. NEW YORK, October 12.—Mr. Greeley's views on the October elections have been freely expressed to those who have questioned him since his return from Baltimore. To a Herald reporter he said: "Our people are not likely to get frightened by the October results. We intend to do our best to the -end. I think we can surely count on one hundred and twenty-eight electoral votes in the South, and I think the North will give us the rest. Undoubtedly there were frauds perpetrated in the Pennsylvania elections—frauuds that aflect the whole American scheme of self-govern-ment more disastrously than they can effect me personally, and I believe the principles of the Liberal movement are so deeply imbedded in the minds and hearts of our people that only similar fraud can insure the success of the other side in November. It must be remembered that frauds can't be diffused so readily over thirty-seven States as over three. I feared for Pennsylvania, .notwithstanding the evil character- of the Republican nominees there, more than 1 did for Ohio, because our friends were well organized in Ohio, and generally lacked organization in Pennsylvania. In at least one speech in Pennsylvania I strongly urged organization and explained the ueed of it." "Will you make any more tours this canvass?" asked the reporter. "I do not know," responded the Liberal Chief. "I will visit a number of agricultural fairs, and if my friends think my services are needed in the field, I will cheerfully acquiesce."

To a World reporter Greeley remarked that he sawjno reason for any despondency, and was as firm as ever in his belief that the Liberals would triumph in November. The result in Pennsylvania and Ohio was DO real criterion, and should those States go the same way in November, the Liberals still had good cause to hope for success. His impression was that the Southern States, with probably one exception, would give Lib* eral majorities. Their electoral vote, together with what would'be added by New York and other Northern 8tates, were sufficient to insure victory. He was certain, from what he had seen since Tuesday's election,"that the defeat in Pennsylvania aji^

ated the Liberals throughout the country, and incited them to enter into the campaign with greater earnestness. MR. CREELEY AT THE RUBENS TEIN

CONCERT.

Last evening Mr. Greeley, accom panied by his two daughters, attended the Rubenstein Concert at Stein way Hall. His visit was unexpected, and not until he had almost reached the center of the hall, in the middle isle, was he recognized. Before he reached his seat, which was in the front row, he was loudly applauded. Nearly every person in the building rose, and for some minutes cheering and handkerchief waving were indulged in. This reception appeared to surprise Mr. Greeley very, much, and rising from his seat, he bowed to the enthusiastic audience. At the conclusion of the performance, the isles were blocked with ceople, who were anxious to get a good look at him. While passing from the hall he was stopped by a number of his friends, who shook his hand warmly. The street and sidewalks were also crowded with people who, as soon as he appeared, cheered him lustily.

To-day he delivered an agricultural address at Pleasautville, New York, near Chappaqua.

For the Seiitlael.

Mr. Ilendrick's Vindication. EDITOR SENTINEL: Allow a Liberal Republican, who at the first supported Thorn: A. Hendricks as a matter cf polic/, merely, a little space to rejoice over that gentleman's complete vindication, by the people, of the one only serious charge brought against him by the Grantites during the canvass just closed. The charge was the sole "stock in trake" of the Grant orators who orated in Indiana, from Ben Butler down to —Major Gordon. Every one of them, big or little, had something to say of Mr. Hendricks' War Record," and it was sought to be impressed upon the minds of the people that Thomas A. Hendricks had been disloyal to the Americau Union. It was best for Mr. Hendricks that this, the ouly charge that could be hatched against him should be so constantly proclaimed, as to induce honest men to look up the "record," for many Republicans who did so were astonished to find that Mr. Hendricks, as Senator from Indiana, supported every war measure of Abraham Lincoln's Administration and the most searching inquiries failed to reveal a single act of disloyalty on his part as a Senator or a citizen but, on the contrary, the proof was abundant that he had always proven himself a faithful public servant, a citizen of irreproachable character.

Mr. Hendricks' election to the Governorship of the great and growing commonwealth of Indiana, is a complete refutation of the grave charge so maliciously brought forward by Morton and reiterated by the lesser lights in the Grant party, and no class of citizens rejoice more heartily over this vindication of Indiana's foremost man than do the4 Liberal Republicans who gave him their earnest support in the State canvass.

INDIANAPOLIS.

The Farmer's Vocation—An Eloquent Sentiment. The following beautiful passage closed the address of Hon. Horace Greeley at the fair in Indiana, Pennsylvauia, delivered while on his recent Western tour:

As for one, long tossed upon the stormiest waves of doubtful conflict and arduous eudeavors, I have begun to feel, since the shades of sixty years have fallen upon me, the weary, tempest driven voyager's longing for the land, the wanderer's yearning for the hamlet where in childhood he nestled by his mother's knee and was soothed to sleep at her breast. The sober dowu hill of life dispels many illusions, while it develops or strengthens within us the attachment, perhaps long smothered or overlaid, for that dear hut or home.

Aud so I, in the sober afternoon of life, wheu its sun, if not too high, is still warm, have bought me a few acres of land in the broad, quiet country, and bearing thither my household treasures, have resolved to steal from the city's labors and anxieties at least one day in each week wherein to revive, as a farmer, the memories of my childhood's humble home. And already I can realize that the experiment cannot cost as much as it is worth. Already I find in that day's quiet antidote aud solace for the feverish, festering care of the weeks which environ it.

Already my brook murmurs a soothing evening song to my burning, throbbing brain and my trees, gently stirred by the fresh breezes, whisper to my spirit something of their own quiet strength and patient trust in God. And thus do I faintly realize, but for a brief flitting day, the serene joy which shall irradiate the farmer's vacation, when a fuller aud truer education shall have refined and chastened his craving, and when sciences shall have endowed him with its treasures, redeeming labor from drudgery, while quadruplings its efficiency, and crowning with beauty and plenty our bounteous, beneficient earth.

The Election Results.

We publish this morning the official returns of the State election from fifty ni-ue counties, and the reported majorities in thirtv-three counties, which give Mr. Hendricks 1,158 .majority for Governor. Tbe official returns may change this majority some, but it approximates very nearly to what the official returns will make it when all are reported. The vote for Mr. Hopkins, the Liberal candidate for Superintendent of Public Instruction, is about the same as that for Mr. Hendricks, and beyond doubt he is elected. The other candidates run so far behind Mr. Hendricks that we fear their defeat, but there will be enough, official returns received to-day to determine whether they have been elected or defeated. The vote for the candidates fot Congressmen-at-Large is also very close, but the returns thus far received indicate the election of tbe Republican candidates. The Legislature will be Republican in both branches by small majorities.

The vote of Mr. Hendricks indicates clearly the Greeley streugih, and, if as full a vote is polled at the Presidential as at the State election, we have no doubt that the majority for Greeley will be much larger than that received by Mr. Hendricks. It is but a few days to the Presidential election, aud it behooves every Liberal, every Democrat, every friend of government reform to put his hand to the plow and not look back until victory is secured.—Ind. Sentinel.

MANY hearts will be saddened by the death of Fanny Fern (Mrs. James Parton,) which is announced by telegraph this morning. Among the lady writers of the present day, she held, if not a high place, a respectable and a warm one in the hearts of thousands of readers. Her little volume of "Fern Leaves" had an extraordinary sale in its day, as did also her later volume,

Our own newspapers, enterprising and inventive as they are, do not inform us of all the surprising things that happen in this country, as, for example, witness the following from the Paris Figaro: "It is known that the railroad from San Francisco to New York passes through the reservations of several tribes of Iudians, who invariably regard the locomotives as terrible monsters created by the Manitou to exterminate thjp red man. Several times already have the Indians attempted to throw the trains off the track. In these enterprises they were led by one of tbe fieftsest of their chiefs, a Cherokee, named Naha, and surnanied the Mocking Bird. All their attempts having failed, Naha resolved to change his tactics. Accordingly on the 2d of June last, he concealed himself near the rails, aud, with extraordinary activity, bounded upon the footboard of the train No. 67, from San Francisco to New York. He then slipped along the train till he reached the locomotive, where he killed the fireman with a blow of his tomahawk, stabbed the engineer with his knife, after scalping them, jumped on the tender, bandishiug the scalps aud howling out a savage war-song. Tne settlers along the line became terrified as they saw the train, which now dashed along at a fearful speech, driven by the ferocious engineer. The passengers all cried for help. Their situation was extremely perilous, in fact they were running into the jaws of death. Finally, an officer of the navy, Henry Pierce, determined to sacrifice himself to save his fellow-prsseugers. Armed with a long dirk-knife he ran along the footboard of the (rain, and jumped upon the engine. The chief uttered a war cry and brandished his tomahawk, aud a haud-to-haud struggle was commenced over the bodies of the engineer and fireman. The passengers put their heads out of the windows, aud, with an anxiety which may easily be imagined, tried to see the fight. In about a miuute Mr. Pierce fell, mortally wouuded, under Mocking Bird, who in the twinkling of an eye scalped him. But, while he was triumphantly waving the scalp of his victim in the air, Mr. Pierce, who was still lying, had sufficient strength to jump up and lunge his knife into the Indian's breast, killing him instantly. He then crawled to the valve-handle, shut off the steam, and the train stopped. The pas-, sengers ran to the assistance of this brave officer, but it was too late he died two hours afterward."

The Ocean Steamers and Gas. It was deemed a great feat in England when the railway carriages were lighted with gas, but now, it seems, the ocean steamers are to have the same boon. Tried in one of the great steamers which aly between Liverpool and New York, it has answered admirably, although the vessel encountered severe weather. The saloon isjsaid to be lighted as brilliantly as any ball-room. Here is certainly good news to those who must cross the Atlantic in the winter months, when the evenings are long, and when darkness as well as the cold drives the pas-engers below. Hitherto they have exchanged the gloom of the deck for the semi-gloom of thecabin and what could they do by the aid of the lamps, which sent out a fitful light? To read has been impracticable, unless the book his been pushed against the scanty flame, and the experiment is seldom tried. The passengers must either eat, drink, play at whist, or go to bed, and they usually do all four things in rapid succession. Some, however, eat, aud others drink all the evening, because they caunot see to read or write. But the dark ages have now passed away from the saloon, and the hours will be spent amid the full blaze of civilization. Nor need there be any more danger of fire than there is at present, for gas pipes can be made as safe a lamps, and the management of the great passenger steamers which sail from Liverpool is a model of caution. In those which ply upon the Mississippi or the Hudson it is deemed safe to leave uncovered lights about, despite the copious arrangements for "liquoring up aud, of course, the huge structures are occasionally burned to the water's edge. But the Cunarders permit no such tampering with fire. They are governed by a beneficent despotism, which acts upon the principle that the passengers cannot safely be trusted with facilities for lighting'their own pipes after certain hours.

From the Dubuque Herald, October 9. A Ilawk in School. The Dodge Street School had an excitement Monday afternoon. A large hen hawk has been preying upon the poultry broods in that part of town, much to the annoyance of the inhabitants. Monday afternoon the fierce bird was observed soaring in mid air on the west side of the school bouse, aud then suddenly began a rapid and slanting descent toward some object on the ground near the house. The hawk swooped down to the earth like lightning, but when nearing the ground tried to stop and poise its wings for reascending. Its volicity was too great, however, and the slantiug course it pursued carried it directly through one of the windows into the school house, among the children. The glass flew in all directions, and the school was in an uproar for several minutes, while the bird went sailing and dipping over the seats. One of the larger boys caught the bold poacher and wrung its neck. Two or three little girls sitting under the window where the hawk entered had their heads severely cut by falling glass. One of them was a daughter of Mr. C. M. Weatherby, who lives next to the school house.
