THE Indianapolis & St. Louis express, due here at twenty minutes past three yesterday morning, ran into a freight car that was protruding from theAshmore switch upon the main track, throwing two or three of the coaches off into the ditch, and turning the locomotive across the track, breaking it badly. None of the passengers were injured to any extent.—Indianapolis Journal.

GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN has returned to the land of his birth, and we Save commenced to receive our daily allowance of private telegrams from him. The one received at 10 o'clock last evening expresses hope lhat Train's Presidential prospects are brightening, and vaguely hiuts at some prophecy designated as the "Chicago prophecy." As we have not paid that attention to Trainology which our responsibility to the general public demands, we are forced to admit that we haven't the slightest idea of the nature of the "Chicago prophecy."— Cin.

A Card from Lanra Keeiie. MONDAY, October 28th, 1872.

Editor of Terre Haute Gazette: I have learned with regret that the performance given in Terre Haute, on Saturday last, created much dissatisfaction. Permit me tft s&y> in every other city where we have appeared, the entertainment has met with the greatest success. I fear that the audience, so accustomed to seeing me in comedy and drama, were under a false impression. That they were so is no fault of mine. I gave precisely what I agreed to give, and what the programmes (one of which I inclose) announced, namely, costume recitals, varied with music. You will find in this programme and on our posters, no announ&ement of a "dramatic performance," "new and brilliant scenery," "powerful dramatic company," or "orchestra led by Sig. Morrosini." As my engagagments are made by the New York Literary Bureau, the entertainment which I give is arranged espeo ially for Lyceum purposes, or audiences who attend lectures, concerts, etc., it is only reasonable to suppose that an audience that had expeotea a dramatic performance would have been disappointed. I sincerely tender them my thanks for the kind, forbearing spirit in which they met that disappointment. Had I been aware before tne rising of the curtain that such false impressions existed, I must have declined to have appeared, as I could not have perilled my hard earned reputation by being a party to any such misrepresentation, which misrepresentation, I fear, has arisen from a too lavish use of highly colored posters, issued by the gentlemen to whom the entertainment was engaged.

My terms are from $200 to $150 per night. The latter sum was the amount paid us for our services on Saturday last. A moment's reflection will show you that I could not bring a "powerful dramatic company," with "new and brilliant scenery" and "orchestra," for double that amount.

I place this simple statement before you, feeling sure that the citizens of Terre Haute, when apprised of the facts, will acquit ME of all blame in the matter.

Respectfully yours, LAURA KEENE.

PARIS, Oct. 29.—The Assembly on reconvening will debate the proposition for a proclamation of a definitive Republic, and for the nomination of M. Theirs as President for five year-0. It is understood that the supporters of Thiers have agreed to move this latter part of the proposition with a view of conciliating the opposition of members who would bitterly oppose any motion to confer a life Presidency on Thiers.

MADRID, Oct. 29.—1The Cortes, by a large majority, has decided against the abolition of capital punishment in Spain.

ROME, October 29.—The inundations of the Po river continue, though the rains which occasioned them have ceased. An immense tract of country is still under water. The provinces of Mantua and Ferrare are wholly submerged. Thousands of acres of grain have been destroyed. Six towns and villages are under water. Many inhabitants were drowned, including women and children, in attempting to escape from the floods. The destruction to property is immense, being beyond anything known in a centucky. Thousands are rendered houseless, and are flying to the nearest towns for shelter.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—A serious disturbance occurred during the target excursion of the Independent Musketeers. The Hamilton Park gang of loafers and thieves from the West Side joined the excursion party, and towards dark began assaulting and robbing them. Chas. H. Bartly, one of the excursionists, was stabbed in the back by a thief. The police interfered and captured sixty of the rowdies, many of whom are well known thieves.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—The horse distemper continues unabated though the dry weather of yesterday and last night does not show any unfavorable symptoms. The general business of the city is at a greater stand still than for many years. The horses of the fire department are nearly all infected, and it is feared that many valuable animals will be lost. The express companies are utterly unable to transact business, and will continue so for several days the stable keepers refusing to hire their animals at any price. Many valuable horses belonging to private persons have died at an early hour this morning. The horses on the Sixth Avenue line are doing moderately well those of Seventh Avenue are also gaining strength. The Eighth Avenue had one death during the night. The Tenth Avenue yesterday afternoon withdrew all of its cars until its horses recovered.

The horse distemper is spreading extensively in the suburbs. Nearly all the horses of the Harlem bridge and the Fordham horse railroad hare been sick. The disease is greatly increasing in New Jersey.

The Grand Jury yesterday, during the Hall trial, presented two new indictments in the ring suits, including, it is stated, two members of the Reform Board of Aldermen of last year. The Jury was then discharged.

Edmund Yates delivered a lecture on Charles Dickens at Steinway Hall last night to a small audience. The lecture was able and vigorous. The sketch of the character of Dickens was no more than a review of his writings.

An adjourned session of the Republican County Convention was held last evening, when a Republican county ticket was completed.

The police have received information of a heavy burglary which occurred on Sunday morning, in the store of Isaacs & Case, silk dealers, 575 Broadway. Twentyseven pieces of fine black silk, valued at many thousand dollars^ were stolen.

A grand mass meeting for the raiificatiou of the Apollo Hall city ticket will be held Friday. A torchlight procession will also take place.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—The horse epidemic is still increasing. The animals belonging to the West Side railroad companies are in a fearful condition. The Sixth Avenue line ceased running cars this morning the Ninth Avenue line ceased -yesterday the Eighth Avenue line will probably stop this afternoon, as also will the Eighth Avenue & Broadway, and Seventh Avenue & Belt lines. Broadway, to-day, presents a strange comparison with the appearance of a week ago, the scarcity of vehicles of all descriptions being so noticeable,

Along the East and North rivers the Bight is still stranger. Traffic is apparently paralized. The streets are almust deserted. There is about twelve or more ox teams at work on the streets and the number is gradually increasing. Several deaths are reported. UR./U

To-day Isaac Robinson and Edward Costello, members of the Board of Assistant Aldermen last year, have been ar

and held in $10,000 bail, to answer

charges of bribery, in ceding city properto the Harlem Railroad. NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—Joseph Hictor, a confidential clerk in the dry goods firm of Lord & Taylor, on Grand street, was arrested yesterday, charged with systematically robbing the firm of large quantities of goods. It has been suspected for several months. The amount stolen aggregates thirty thousand dollars in value.

CHICAGO, Oct. 29.—The fire last night, commencing at No. 14 Larrabee street, destroyed a barn, with six horses and a quantity of feed, all valued %t $2,200 and damaged several adjoining houses from $500 to $2,000 each. The iEtua Insurance Co., of Hartford, will lose about $1,000 on the house of Mathias Branderburg.

To prevent future failure in prosecuting the liquor cases for want of witnesses, the Mayor has ordered the Superintendent to look after the witnesses and see that they be present at the trials. If any man makes a complaint he will be obliged to appear. His Honor says that if it be proven that any saloon keeper kept open house on Sunday and thus defied the law, his license would be instantly revoked. When they come to perceive that not only heavy fines but also imprisonment in the county jail awaited them if they offended the license law, he was sure they would be more tractable. He had made up his mind that if the Committee of Fifteen made complaint against saloon keepers, they should be held responsible for the proof the same as an individual.

LOUISVILLE, Oct. 29.—The Canadian horse epidemic has been here for several days, but in modified form and not widely spread. The horses have influenza, and refuse either to eat or drink. The attacks thus far are confined to the stock of individual citizens.

DAYTON, October 29.—A man named Brown, Manager of the Wheeler & Wilson sewing machine agency here, has absconded, being a defaulter to a large amount. His goods has been attached by his numerous creditors. He leaves behind him a bride of four months. Wm. Summers & Co., of Cincinnati, are the heaviest losers.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 29.—The National Convention of Engine Machine Manufacturers will meet at 10 o'clock to-day, at the Board of Trade rooms.

ALBANY, N. yif Oct. 29.—A fire in Staats' furniture warehouse, this morning, originated on the ground floor. The cause is unknown. The building and its contents area total loss. The stock in the three upper stories, consisting of seasoned timber, furniture and musical instruments was valued at about $10,000, and fully insured.. The amount of insurance on the building and contents is not known. The total loss is about $100,000.

The horse disease is increasing rapidly here. The Albany & West Tro Railroad stopped running last night, all their horses being sick. Only one case has ended fatally, so far.

CINCINNATI, October 29.—The convention of engine builders of the United States met at the Board of Trade rooms this afternoon. About forty delegates were present, representing about onethird of the States. C. Lane, of Cincinnati, was chosen Temporary Chairman, and A. B. Waters Secretary. Commitmittees were appointed on Credentials, Permanent Organization and Order of Business, after which the Convention adjourned till 10 A. M. to-morrow.

The delegates will ride through and around the city this afternoon with the Cincinnati builders.

Benj. C. Ernest, of Pitts, has brought suit against the Times and Chronicle for libel, for the publication of an article accusing him of embezzling $30,000. He lays the damages at $25,000, and as ail the morning papers copied the Chronicle's article, they are all to be treated likewise.

The river is falling, with five feet in the channel. The Arlington is hard aground at Five Mile, and J. A. Wood at Four Mile. Several tow-boats, which started up yesterday, have returned on account of low water.

NEW YORK, October 27.—Such was the scarcity of horses yesterday that Minister Wasbburne, who arrived in the Deutchland, and was received by Henry Clews and others, who went down the bay to meet him, was unable to get a coach, and bad to ride up to the Fifth Avenue Hotel in an ordinary Broadway stage. He comes home, he says, to vote for General Grant.

The Steinways having received a telegram from Boston, ordering forty pianos in a hurry, telegraphed back that they would gladly fill the order if Boston would send a consignment of horses. This is not a joke. It is literally true that our merchants and manufacturers can not find horses to take tbeir wares to the piers and railway stations. Babbitt, of soap making fame, whose horses are all down, employed men to draw his vehicles through the streets. Funerals moved toward the cemeteries with merely the hearse and a single coach, and twenty-five dollars a day was the common charge for a single coupe. Broadway and South and West streets were nearly deserted, and business was at a stand-still. One of the street-car lines in this city and Brooklyn suspended to-day. Only two fatal cases have been reported in Jersey City. Some stablemen are down with symptoms of the mysterious malady which has so generally prostrated the horses in and near New York.

HARDING, of the St. Louis Democrat, was once a sailor. A few days ago some designing person came suddenly to his door and shouted, "Avast, there! Close reef your marlinspike!" The familiar sound brought George to his feet, and before he cotdd collect his thoughts he had hitched his trowers and responded: "Aye, aye, sir."—Courier-Journal.

TERRE HAUTE DAILY GAZETTE

TERUE HAUTE, IND.: TUESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 29, 1872.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Are We Deteriorating I

The question is sometimes asked, "Are we Deteriorating?" We have among us a class of pessimists who assume to answer this question in the affirmative with no other argument in their favor than the established truism that civilization is enervating. It may be that our social life is little better than a physical maw-worm, but we are prepared to boldly advance the proposition that no race can besaid to decaying whose language retains its strength and purity. The seeds of effeminacy and degeneracy must necessarily be made manifest in language, the very offspring of intellect. That our language retains all its force and boldness, the columns of our press attest. We gave, a day or two ago, some specimens of editorial interchange of thought, which were quite up to the mark, and which we would gladly have offered in substantiation of our theory if we had been called upon. It has since been our good fortune to lay hands upon a newspaper called the Troy Republican, published in the adolescent State of Kansas. In the columns of this able exponent of Grantism, we find some strong, virile writing, just to our hand. As illustrative of our theory, we feel it incumbent upon us to preserve some of the gems of purest ray serene which we find therein, that the croakers may stand abashed, and seek some retired spot wherein to hide their foreheads and their eyes.

It would seem that a personal misunderstanding had sprung up between the editors of the Troy Republican and the editors of the Topeka Record. Our Rabelais of the Republican informs us that he has been stabbed by the editors of the Record in a "contemptibly mean article, destitute of truth and personally abusive," and that the "sneaking scribblers" of the Record were too cowardly to send him a copy of their slieet that he might see the wrong they had inflicted. Awakening, after several weeks of unsuspecting tranquility, to a full sense of the injustice done him, the editor of the Republican comes down upon his assailants like the Assyrians at Sennacherib. Of Mr. Baker, one of the editors of the opposing journal, he has nothing more severe to say than that he is "a squinteyed, bow-legged, illiterate, self-import-ant counterfeit 'brunette,' who can not indite a line without biting his tongue, and whose name at the head of any paper as 'edttor,' is a burning disgrace to the profession."

It is upon Mr. McDonald, the aggressive editor of the Record, that the vials of wrath are poured. In an article bearing the title of "We Skiuneth a Couple of Hogs," we are told that this man, whose name we have just mentioned, was some years ago, a jack-leg printer in the employ of E. G. Ross, and at that time bore the appellation of Ross' hog." After this mijd introductory we are let into the full merits of Mr. Ross' porcine. Says the man of the Republican: "Unless he has changed, he is filthier in his personal habits than a Digger Indian, and more miserly than the man who refused to feed his roosters because they wouldn't lay eggs. He has been kuown to wear a shirt until it became a mass of dirt and vermtn. This fellow used to chew tobacco, lay it away to dry, then smoke it and use the ashes for snuff. What he don't know about ecenomy isn't found in books or anywhere else. He would purloin acorns from a starving hog jayhawk the tallow off a sick, sore-eyed nigger baby's corncake gobble oats from a blind mule go to the infernal regions for a five-cent shinplaster, and if it cost a dime to return, stay there dig up his grandmother's bones and sell them for compost, and dispose of her coffin for kindling-wood pilfer the nails from the cross of his Maker, and sell them for old iron. j»He is the embodiment of all that is beastly a nondescript, compared to whom Barnum's What-Is-It is a model of seraphic beauty. He has all the inetincts of a brute the stubborness, deceit and ears of a jackass, and the form and grace of a fly-up-the-creek. His general make-up is that of one sent into the world before his time, a disgrace to his species, and a perambulating human monstrosity. As a concise, deliberate, square-toed liar, the odoriferous scoundrel has no equal, save his partner."

After this delicate description of character, Mr. Ross' masculine porcine and his squint-eyed partner are dismissed with the following anathema: "Farewell, despicable associates in Liberalism and iniquity. Go your ways, and in due time the devil will get his own."

It is not to be wondered at that our friends on the other side of the water are sometimes astounded at the vigorous style which characterizes our newspaper writing. Upon this score we have nothing to say. Our Anak of the Kansas press has furnished us with all the evidence necessary to establish our proposition, and we dismiss the subject.

"Gentlemen Only."

Twice a year, spring arid fall, we read of "gentlemen only." This is in those peculiarly aristocratic departments of the daily journals which are monopolized by lion hunters or boarding house keepers. Now, with all due respect to both the boarding house and codfish prerogatives, we suggest that this "gentlemen only" business is slightly vindictive, altogether illiberal, and in some aspects an attempt to reverse, or improve the decrees of the Almighty. In the infant days of Adam, who was never much of an iufant, according to the history of creation, there was not the remotest idea of "gentleman only," except as he was thought to be only half a gentleman, without a woman in the case. It is because Eve is necessary to Adam, in nature and in grace, that we protest against "gentlemen only." Boarding house keepers should not assume that this is an age of "gentlemen only" but of rights, especially in boarding houses, amoag women 'and in whatever relates to equality of race and sex, in the house, out of the house, everywhere, and under all circumstances. The boarding house is, of necessity, a democratic institution. Aod upon every consideration, the "rooms to let" should be for both sexes, unless there is some means of disposing of ladies, in all the economy of civilization. Then there will be no "hash," and "gentlemen" only Mill starve or freeze, per force. Meantime, women have a right to live and not "gentlemen only."

THE indefatigable Mrs. Gaines suddenly re-appears in her old arena and again brings before our City Council a proposal to compromise her large claim on the city, based on judgments against the unfortunate people who purchased from the city property which the United States Court has decided belonged to Daniel Clark's heirs. It looks very much as if Mrs. Gaines had the city in a corner on this point. If this be so, and the lady puts -her demand at a reasonable figure, it would prove a tremendous relief to all of Mrs. Gaines' friends, and this whole community, if she could effect a settlement and compromise thereof.—Xfav Orleans Time9x

Consul Sutler's Operations 'in Egypt. A. D. Strologo, Private Secretary of Col. George H. Butler, while that worthy was United States Consul in Egypt, has turned States' evidence, and publishes a precious scandal, involving his employer and himself. Using Strologo as a go-be-tween, Butler pocketed in bribes no less than $21,000 in gold. Strologo was promised a fair division, but received about $700. Butler opened letters addressd to others in the most unscrupulous manner, and turned their contents to his own advantage. After the shooting affray, Butler telegraphed to his uncle in the United States (General Butler) to get him a leave of absence and send by telegraph immediately that it was important. No time was lost an answer came about ten hours after, signed by Mr. Hale, granting the leave if the case was urgent. Butler took the books, documents and acrhives, and several blank passports and offieial papers, putting the official seal of the Consulate upon them, saying that they might be handy and come to use. It will be remembered that General Starring's report on Butler, is still hidden away in official pigeon-holes in Washington.— "Washington Dispatch, 2Uh.

AN amateur journalist of Iudianapolis has made a fortune by his pen. His father-in-law died of grief after reading one of his editorials, and then left him $130,000.—Missouri Democrat.
