City and Neighborhood.
MB. J. V. GRAFF has this day (Feb. 3) taken charge of the GAZETTE routes. He is authorized to solicit subscribers and collect subscriptions. No one else is so authorized. Subscribers will oblige us by reporting irregularities in the receipt of papers. BALL & DICKERSON.
ALL quiet on the Wabash again.
THEY are boring for oil at Vincennes.
GOULD complimentary benefit at the Opera House Friday evening of next week.
DUNNIGAN'S addition to th& city of Terre Haute will be platted at ail early date.
"TERRE HAUTE Iron and Nail Works" is what they call 'em through the courtesy of the Civil Circuit Court. What's in a name?
THE great local event of the season will be the Gould benefit at the Opera House, Friday night. Look out for a jammed house
MR. JOHN J. STEPHENSON^ managing editor of the Bowling Green Bureau of Correspondence for the Knightsville Enterprise,, is in the city.
IN another column will be found the names of the Inspectors appointed by County Commissioners for the special election on the canal question.
MR. J. F. ELDER, with John P. Morton & Co., Publishers, Importers and Booksellers, of Louisville, is in the city, guest of his cousin, deputy Postmaster W. F. Arnold.
MESSRS. J. J. BINGHAM, late editor of the Indianapolis Sentinel, and James B. Ryan, lsnte Treasurer of State, were in the city a short time yesterday,and then left for.Chicago.
CORRESPONDENCE that finds its way into these columns must be brief, to the point, and written on but one side of the paper. Manuscripts bearing the signature of U. S. G., if written on both sides of the paper, would be rejected. Yet we hope we are loyal.
THE Vincennes Sun tells about a young "woman of the world," who, upon being refused admittance to a Terre Haute house,{suicided by drowning. Who was it that turned her away It was an act of which a savage ought to, and doubtless would be, heartly ashamed.
MR. GEORGE R. SNELLING, the affable and cuorteousAssistant Superintendent of the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad, has resigned and is seeking a more eligible location in the Northwest. If he is rewarded with success, then will Terre Haute lose a genial gentleman and an estimable lady, as Mr. and Mrs. Snelling will depart from among us.
A CORRESPONDENT suggests that a railing be erected around the general delivery of the postoffice, for thel&nveniince of the public and the comfort of the lady clerks. Uncle Sam has lost so much money through his ungrateful sons at Washington, who are trying to operate the Governmental machinery, that the GAZETTE fears that he cannot afford the expenditure.
IT is generally understood in/^al
e'r*
cles that there will be a prearranged strike in the Clay cdunty mines about the 20 inst. The threatened suspension of mining operations, the GAZETTE learns, is an attempt on the part of operators1 to reduce tho rates, and the strenuous objections ofjthe miners thereto, who propose to quit, and if the woijt comes, to leave the county and go elsewhere.
Enoch Arden.
The Opera House was packed from parquette to gallery, last night, to hear Edwin Adams in Enoch Arden. A deserving tribute, no less to Mr. Adams, who takes high rauk among the great actors of the day, than to the pathetic poem of Tennyson, the chief character in which he personated.
The poem is too well known to need comment. The self-forgetful heroism, not alone of Enoch, but of Phillip, too, has a healthful moral, and is not one whit less ideally noble, than the tamed friendship of Damon and Pythias. The main incidents of the poena, and the moral involved in it, are faithfully preserved in the dramatization. And yet it must be confessed that the play is lacking in that dramatic interest, the want of which is not felt in the poem, but which seriously mars tho interest in it when placed upon the stage. Most persons will be more interested in reading the poem than in witnessing the drama.
Mr. Adaim' impersonations of the title role was a masterly work of art. As much cannot be said of bis support, which, not to put too fine a point upon it, was execrable. Phillip's voice was a mumble or a shout, and disagreeable all the time. Moreover, from the time wlien Annie Lee rejected him and married Enoch, through the seven years of their wedded life, and the twelve of Enoch's absence until she finally married him, he grew apparently not a day older or more distressed, but rather younger and rosier. And all this time he was supposed to be agonizingly waiting for Annie's tardy love. The modern lover would, under such circumstances, show unmistakable signs of distress, or get mad and marry some other girl. He only wore better clothes and cultivated whiskers. "Miriam Lane" was tolerable, and the rest of tho troupe, very poor. The music was like the "rest of the troupe."
Mr. Adams ought to get better support, or he wiil injure his reputation.
From the Journal.
Appointment of Election Inspectors, The County Commissioners met at the Auditor's office yesterday, and made the following appointments for the special election to be held on the 18th iust.:

THOSE of our citizens who do their 'heavy shopping" in Chicago can comfort themselves by takiag the Woodruff Palace Sleeping Coach, over the T. H. & C. line, which leaves the Uniou Depot at 10:40 P.M. Refreshing slumber can be had until 7:50 A. M. the ensuing day. From that time until 7 P. M. is allowed for shopping and sight-seeing. /Then the same Sleeper departs for Terre Haute and reaches here between 3 and 4 A. M., the ensuing day. It is then left on aside track until 7 A. M., after which it is attached to the Evansville train and departs for its destination.
MR. FRANK MCEVOY'S HIBEUNICON was the center of attraction at Dowling Hall last evening. Notwithstanding the first and only appearance of Mr. Edwin Adams in the emotional drama of Enoch Arden, Dowling Hall was crowded to its utmost capacity. Though we confess that we were not there, we have reliable information that the new Hi'oernicon is far superior to the old, and was in every way well presented to the public last evening.
Second appearance at the same hall to-night.
MR. STEPHENSON, a yoUng] lawyer of Bowling Green, informs the GAZETTE that the county seat question is still agitating the citizen of Clay county. That the Commissioners have been restrained from moving the seat of said county from Bowling Green to Brazil, Judge W. M. Franklin, of the Sixth Circuit, so ordering, on a suit tot injunction brought by the citizens of Bowling Green. A further hearing will be had at the May term of court. "f j|* 41-'
JUDGE SIMS, formerly of Paducah now of Montana, stopped in this city en route from Washington to his home. He here visited his old acquaintances, W. H. Armstrong and W. C. Buntin, stopping with Mr. Geo. R. Snelling, on Mulberry street. He ieft in company with Mr. S., night before last, and after spending yesterday in Chicago, started on a tour of the great Northwest
THE sensation in Clay coiiuty the past and present week, was occasioned by the appointment of a Democratic Real Estate Appraiser by a Democrat Auditor, when aRepublican had been duly elected at the late election, but had failed to qualify. The same thing occurred in this •county, but there was no fu3S made about it. The verdict of all whom we heard was, the Auditor did right.

From the Vincennes Bun. Who Did It.
Between sundown and dark, last Sunday evening, a 3'oung woman, supposed to be about 18 or 20 years of age, committed suicide by drowning. She applied at a house on the Terre Haute road and requested lodging, which was refused. She then came back towards town, and when near the edgeof Brouillette's grove went down to the river and walked out on the ice until she came to an open space and went in, in about four feet of water, and appeared to drift along with her head up until she reached the edge of the ice below, when she was carried under it. She was dressed in a reddish calico dress, red and white plaid shawl, white hat, and had a mufl and bundle in her hands.
THE following are the transfers of real estate since last report: Thomas McColloch to James W. Bennett, interest in 160 acres in Sugar Creek township for 82,250.

Wc liavo nearly completed our third year in Terre Haute. During this time we have built up an enormous trade, never more profitable and in every way satisfactory than now. In a few da3's we shall take our semi-annual inventory of stock on hand, and until then we shall offer extraordinary inducements in either Carpets or Dry Goods in order to reduce stock to the lowest possible point. We would invite special attention to our prices on Furs, Shawls, Blankets, Waterproofs, Flannels and Carpets, on all of which we are offering the most attractive bargains. FOSTER BROS.,

A Good Record.
It is with great pleasure that the officers of the First Presbyterian Church, of this city, announce to the public that,through the liberality of members of the congregatation and outside friends, they have been enabled ta cancel all liabilities against the society. And they take this means of returning hearty thanks to all who have contributed to this object, The church now stands free of debt, and is in a healthful and prosperous condition.
With a large and attractive house of worship, in a good location a neat and comfortable parsonage a united .and harmonious congregation a flourishing Sunday school a growing missionary spirit, and a minister generally acceptable, this church must inevitably become a power for good in this community.
Old residents in this city, having no home in any other, are invited to come and see us. Strangers are always welcome. &
