TO-MOKKOW is the last day for receiving contributions lor the poor^ at the rooms of the Ladies Aid Society, in he Opera House.

BUSINESS in rural towns is reported to be looking up largely. Most of these towns have been for some time, too defunct to flaggellate.

SESD in your donations for the poor. The committee for the Ladies' Aid Society are located in the Opera House building, and will bo until to-morrow evening.

CONSIDERABLE astonishment was expressed last night at the Council, over the statement that James Tully had no regular physician to attend him when nick at the pest house.

As YOU pass the Buckeye store look in the show window and see the handsome dress hanging there, which is to be votod to the handsomest lady at the A. O. U. W. ball, on Washingtons b'rthday.

WITHIN the past two weeks, two saw iriills,—the machinery part of theui vi mean, -have been shippod jrom a Terre Haute foundry, that of Parker Co.

Mr. L. Feleentheld, together with his estimable lady, will go Kast the early part of next week. On their return they will commence housekeeping on North Sixth-and-a-half street, in The house of Dr. A. H. DePuy.

REMEMBER that the first of all the almost numberless balls in prospect now is that of the O. U. A. M. next Monday. The A. O. U. W. lollows on the next evening and the K. of P^ dtiortly after these.

THE fact that Messrs. Garvin & Heinley subscribed forty dollars toward the reading room enterprise of viie Y. M. C. A., is significant, showing that these gentlemen know the value of literary culture among vonng men. Their subscription was the price of one scholarship in their model commercial school. They evidently not only bear good will to the project, but appreciate it from prolessional view. [Journal.

On Show.

The various prizes to be voted at the A. O. W. ball next Tuesday,are now •on exhibition. The dress which is to tie voted to the most popular married lady is in the afaow window at Ryce's «irv poods store. The tea set which •will fall to the lot of tho most popular •young lady is at S. R. Freeman's, and the castors which are to bo carried oli 1»v the ugliest man can be seen at fcwope's hat store.

That Valise.

Like Jack Falstaff's "men in Buckram the damages on these lectures is increasing. The Sullivan Democrat,as •will be seen below, states tbt loss at ti),000. Wo hope before we die to see vhe' amount reach a million. It says:

Tho Jewish Rabbi, Brown, who lecured here last week, lost his satchel at tie St. Clair House, Terre Haute, and to sue the proprietor for $25,000. Caron. the proprietor, says Brown had no valise when he came there, and intimites that he is a dead beat.

Die SMed ai JackonRvilSe Fl©r ida on (lie llili. A letter received to-day from Mrs. Cornwall, of this city, now sojourning in Florida for her health, describes the sudden death of S. S. Maple?, who was f'Vr some years a clerk in tho house of Cory it Walrasley, and afterward in t.iat ot A. G. Austin & Co. About a month ago bo went South, being at the time, very low with consumption. He died suddenly, at 2 o'clock on the 11th On examination of his effects, it was found that he had a brother, W. C. Maples, resident at Berlin, Homes county,

Ohio, and he was at once telegraphed for. As he is a traveling man it is not certain whether he can be found at once.

W. S. Ryce is rapidly recovering from a serious sickness of over a week's daration, and like Richard, is almost himself again.

Thompson does not believe in office holding. He declined are election to Congress in 1849, and has since held no public office. He declined the tender Dv President Taylor, of Minister to Austria, and by Fillmore, that of Recorder of the General Land Office, to B8V nothing of innumerable declinations to be a candidate for Congress. Air Thompson, if he lives until next June, will be 67 years of age.—[Craw fordaville Journal.

Prosecutor A. J. Kelly is suffering fram a severe cold, which has settled in his throat, and renders the use of his vocal organs extremely difficult and p»-ii)lul. He has postponed all cases in tie Criminal Court until Monday next.

Mr. C. Daugherty, cf Brazil, is in the city buying horses. He is located at Wolle's stable, corner of Third and Ohio.

J.H. Marcus, architect, of Robinson, JED., is in the city purchasing stock for tb3 extensive business house of E.G. .Tones, of Robinson.

i')oue Browr

Brew a.

Rabbi Brown called at tho GAZETTE office last evening, for *he ParP°!3Btl°f examining the GAZETTE file. nast week. Our readers will remember that Dr. Brown was casually referred to in ono or two items concerning a lost valise, during the-week.

The Doctor was so modest as iO im­

agine

that his personal was unknown in

the GAZETTE office. He said in explanation

of his request to be shown

the files of the GAZETTE, that Dr. Brown was a Irieud of his, and had requested him to inquire into the matter. In answer to a question concerning the whereabouts of the Eabbit_tno Doctor said ho was at present in Cincinnati.

Ali this was very amusing to a person who had sat within twenty feet of Dr Brown for one hundred and twenty long, dreary, monotonous: minutes minutes which seemed like hours to the tired and much bored GAZETTEER, as he listened to the dryest lecture he ever heard. During these minutes the GAZETTEER had ample opportunity to study the features and figure of the Rabbi, and when he entered theeditorial rooms of the GAZETTE yesterday, he was easily recognized at first glance. Whatever could have induced this man to misrepresent himself and lie about his own identity in this way, !it is difficult to imagine. He is engaged in promulgating the beautiful ethics of the Talmud,which is supposed to teach purity and nobility in all the relations ol life. However, in looking over our notes of the Doctor's lecture, we find that lying is not forbidden in the creed which he expounded at the Congregational church, a liltlo more than a week ago. It may be that this species of moral crime isjentirely overlooked in the Talmud, and it may be that Dr. Brown has omitted, for purpose of his own, to mention it. Castaside all questions of morality and ethic3, it was a very foolish operatoin for a iiian who had delivered a^public lecture to a large congregation, in this city, to trv and pass himself off tor "a friend of Dr. Brown," especially in a newspaper office, for newspaper men, you know, are supposed to know everything and everybody.

Iu an interview with Mr. Carson, ol the St. Clair House this morning, a GAZETTEER learned that Dr. Brown had not been seen at that hotel. Mr. Carson wishes us to say to Mr. Brown, that it would be no more than common justice to him, (Carson) to give him some kind of legal notice of the commencement of the suit*tor $15,000 damages which the Doctor claims to have initiated in the "United Court, at Kvansville." (Where there never has been such court.) Mr. Carson submits the question to the public, if it is not illegal and in every way unjust to thus carry on a secret suit against him for the loss of an imaginary valise. He has a pard suspicion that*Dr. Brown intends to push the matter through the courts,and obtain a judgement without giving the defendant in the case any chance whatever. King, the Bible agent, is full of wrath, and should he meet Brown, it is more than likely that a terrific combat will result.

To thcCitlzcnsofJIarjliall The Herald of yesterday contained an account of the assault made by Wes. Campbell on our traveling agent James Hamilton and a good deal of dirt thrown at us on other accounts We defer answer until we can hear from the citizens of Marshall as to the ccvnduct of our agent while there]which, as charged iu the concluding passage of Frost's article was not becoming. In regard to the dastardly intimation that we have not paid our bills in Morshall, wc challenge the man, M. O. ^rost. to produce a single individual in Marshall who claims that we owe him. The hotel keeper, We3. Campbell, was paid in full in cash all he asked and all that his highest rate could demand. His request

that we publish a great statement, setting forth his impossible inuocence would have been granted had our columns ever contained at that time a word in regard to him one way or the'other. We subsequently gave space to about ton lines of an account of the matter. The two dollars asked of

him for publication was largely designed to pay for the trouble of writing up his defence for Campbell don't know from a bulls foot and could not write it himself.

We have, in conclusion, but a very few words to devote to this dead beat, Illinois editor, M. O. Frost, who wormed himself into the excursion of Indi

THE following poetical gem is from the pen of our gifted Terre Haute Tupper. It appeared in the Express of this morning, and is one of the most tiniBhed productions of a child of genious, not unknown to fame, who is attached to that institution. Its title is Babcock, its theme, the universe and everything in it, and we are not sure but that it is intended for a masterly and a subtle argument in favor of the illusory greenback. It is what the ladies would call a "sweet pome." liut here it is

But then, he rendered" service for which the ring could pay, By furnishing revenue items, late and early every day. Frazer is a fine scholar—reads writing very well, All knotty things in manuscript he readily can tell. B. S.

A Parting Kick.

Logansport Star: As the time approaches for the sale of the- ^JVabash & Erie canal, the interest in the imaUer is increasing. A company nas been formed in almost every city along its^''banks for its purchase. There is no p|,ace that will bid the old ditch a Uiore coj| dial good-bye than Logansport. It halfe been an eye-sore to our peoplo for the

r. M. C. A. News.

Last night the regular monthly meet* ing of the State association was held at Indianapolis. The Journal gives the following account of it: It was reported that the labors of the chairman of the executive committee, in Connersville, had resulted it 250 accessions to the churches of all denominations and jn Vincennes an addition of 225 was reported. On Monday night a sum of S725 was raised in Terre Haute toward the organization of an association. The gymnasium committee have closed a contract with the Eagle Machine Works, to put in a heating apparatus, which will be completed within a week and is guaranteed to supply all the hot water nedeed for the batbs.

It was also reported that the city association were holding very successful meetings at Acton and Indianola. baa

The Greencastie association moved into new rooms. Gymnasiums attached to Y. M. C. A. reading rooms! are now largely in vogue. Chicago baa made such an addition.

The work is being s-pread into the highways and byways. An association is now doing g°od service in Calcutta, India.

Tramps are begii'.iug to attend the Y. M. C'. A, reading rooms in large numbers using them as a regular loafing and sleeping place to tho exclusion of other parties.

The expenditures monthly,at Indianapolis vary from §125 to ?150 per month.

A series of meetings are being conducted by J. K. "Walts, in Madison. New Albany Ledger Standard: Whiteland has an association of one hundred members. A big start to be to voung. Hope that it will continue so "flourish.

Exchange: Mr. Swadnour, the Gen eral Secretary of the Logansport Asso ciation, is making a success of the work. Several new members have united with the Association, and has betore it a bright future.

The main ball at the New York City rink, in which Moody and Sankey are holding their meetings, will seat but 8000 peopi9.

New Albany Ledger Standard: While the convicts in the Prison South are unemployed, reading matter will be greatly appreciated by them. A vast amount of suitable matter is thrown away that can be made a blessing to these men. It does not matter whether it is of a late date or not, so it is of an interesting and moral charac ter. Send in your old papers, magazines or school books to the Superintendant of the Y. M. C. A., and tbey will be properly distributed. About 300 books and papers were taken up yesterday, and the eagerness with which they were received gave evidence of the appreciation they met with.

Our canvassers have not yet commenced to carry on the work of raising money BO auspiciously begun by Dr. Munhall on Monday night.

Who are the candidates for the position ot Secretary of the Terre Haute association?

There is no necessity of the Terre Haute Y. M. C. A. having a separate library of its own. In future days its rooms should be located adjoining those of our (then) prosporeus library association.

KAILROAl NEWS.

Taken Fromihe \ot Books cf Gaz ett.4 Hcporters The freight rates to New York have been advanced from 463 to 47c per hundred.

Logansport Journal: The I., P. & C. Kail road will carry passengers to the Republican convention to be held at Indianapolis, on the 2'2d, at half fare rates, and also to the Independent convention, to be held on the 16th. Tickets good for three days.

The losses on many of the roads during the late floods have been considerable. That ot the J. M. &. I. is stated at $10,000, outside of that occasioned by the delay of trains.

It seems that the high water has been playing "bob" with the roads in the northern part of the Slate. The Ft. Wayne papers are full of disasters. The Gazette says:

Since 1865 the river has not been known to be so high as at the present time. The Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne fe Chicago Railway bridgo over Flat Rock creek has been threatened, In Bloomingdale, near the box factory (Peters') the embankment of the Muncie Railroad is washed out, but a force of men are kept at work upon it, and trains have not been thus far inconvenienced. (, WORDS FITLY SPOKEN.

Indianapolis Journal Since the Illinois Midland road was placed in the hands of Receiver Dole considerable improvement has been made to the road bed, the rolling stock has been pnt in good order, and the Jine is now doing nearly double the business it ever cKd.

A second lot of Roger engines were sold at Indianapolis yesterday. Some of them brought a» high as'$5,0C0.

Court House Echoes. MAYOR'S COURT.

There was not a single case on the Mayor's docket this morning. The present stringency in the money market seems to have its influence on all branches of industry drinking, fighting, stealing and all that sort of thing.

Scourge the Villain. From the Journal.

We have been Informed that a certain man in this city claims to own the Journal job office, and that be is trying to sell the same. To prevent any misunderstanding with those who might wish to purchase a job office, and to prevent them from oeing swindled by buying what they cannot get,- we state positively that the claimes ot ownership of this party are false in every particular. The Journal job office belongs to tho Journal Company and no one else, all claims to the contrary are a. palpable fraud.

If our contemporary will give us the name of this wretch, Ye GAY GAZETTEER will heat a poker red with un common wrath, to punch the person with. Who is the man?

STATION HOUSE keeper Nott, has made a good many improvements in his establishment, but none ao creditable to himself as the riddance of visitors to prisoners. Formerly there was steady flow of boys and men to confer with the captives in the cells below, (if such nobility of title may be applied to them), who want to joke with the fellow creatures who are under lock and key above. By slow degrees the most of these have been quietly frozen out, and the house is now unusually clean and quiet.

BAKER & Co., are constructing some "pony saw mills" especially adapted to the use of parties who own portable threshers which are busy during the summer and fall, but Hy idle during the entire winter anu spring. This saw mill machinery is so built that a portable engine can bo driven right up to it, and go to work.

THE contributions received to-day by the committee of the Ladies' Aid Society, located in the Opera House building, have been so slim, that the ladies are ashamed, for the credit of the city, to have them published. It is to be hoped that our people will feel more liberal to-morrow than they have today.

The sale of seats for Duprez & Benedict's minstrels will begin to-morrow morning. Theie will, no doubt, be a great demand for tickets, and those who wish good seats will do well to go early.

IT is more than a year since any assistance has been asked from the public by the Ladies' Aid Society, and it is to be hoped that the people who are able to give will respond liberally to the present call for aid.

How to get Oil or Fluid Cheaply and CouTlently. Now that the attention of everybody is directed to some cheap substitute for gas, let the GAZETTE tell you where to get oil and fluid. The Terre Haute Oil Co. keep three wagons, which will deliver either Flnid or the hest Head Light Oil at your house. They give cards which can be hung out and notify the passing wagons to deliver it. The great convenience of this will be appreciated by housekeepers, and the trouble it saves in going or sending after it. The waeons are also supplied with lamps and fixtures of all kinds, so that if you want a burner, a shade, a wick or a chimney, you can be supplied at onoe and without trouble. The nead-light oil and fluid are of the finest quality and urn-explosive. They will bo sold and delivered in this way, as also the fixtures, at prices as low and often lower than they can be bought at the stores. Address, through the postoffice, the Terre Haute Oil Company, giving your

first order and

receiving a card, or stop the wagon as it passes your house.
