MITCHELL to-night in Savoy."

MAGGIE MITCHELL has hosts of warm friends and admirers. in Terre Haute who would not miss seeing her for the world.

FOR the benefit of a gentleman who has made tho inquiry, the GAZETTE would like to know of Mr. Ilebb, who has the rooster weighing 13 pounds, whether that was before, or after feeding.

Our devil wants to know if that rooster hadn't just come inaftor a rain when ho was put on the scales.

THE GAZETTE publishes more reli« gious news, taking into consideration the Sunday school lesson given each Saturday, than all the rest of tho Terre Haute newspapers put together, thereby sustaining its reputation for being the only "truly good" newspaper in town. Selah!

COL. NELSON'S hunting party returned incontinently last nignt, having no desire to shoot at ducks flying high and southward. The wind being noitherly they were all able to tell the difference between a bleak prairie with the thermometer at zero and a cosy room at home. They have gone into winter quarters.

THE model of the Normal school will be completed to-day. Mr. N. B. Yeakle, who took.the contract of painting the minature building, has been constantly at work for more than ten days, employing one or more assistants, lor two or three days. The work of making thiB model has been equal to the building of an ordinary house of four or live rooms. It is a marvel of beauty and an exact counterpart of the original.

FOUTS & HUNTER have sold their stables in St. Louis, and propose to make

Terre Haute their home for the future. It is their intention to engage in the sale of horses and mules on an extensive scale at this point. This will be gratifying news to the many friends of both these gentlemen here in Terre Haute, and goes to prove the old story that a person who has ever lived in our Prairie City can never leave it.

A RIDICULOUS rumor to the effect that Hammerly, the baker, had the small pox, has done that gentleman great injury in liis busiuess. It originated from the fact that he lias been afflicted with boil9, and that lately some bread has been bought of him for the pest house. He has not had, nor has he now, any signs of the small pox, and his regular customers need have no fears of continuing their patronage.

Laud rum is doing his work for him, in addition to his own district. Mr Landrum has already taken 1,500 names, and out of that number found but fifteen between the ages of fifteen and twenty-one who are unable to read or write. The showing is oertalnly a very creditable one to the city. The inclemency of the weather makes the task of enumerating an unpleasant one.

When tlio name of Mr. Geo. E. Furriogton, of the Vandalia road, wan propoasd for the Republican nominations for county clerk it caused general satisfaction among all classes of honest citizer.s. Mr. Farrington's standing andtbat of hia family, lor generations back has been so high in this community, and his deserts at the hands of Terre Hautcau3 are BO that his candidacy seemed to in a better era." The strong probability of the nominations on the Democratic ticket of a thorough scholar, accountant, and gentleman would have given us in the event oi Mr. Farringtou'a nomination, two gentlemen, either of whom it would be a pleasure to vote for. and iu either of whose hands the affairs of the county could with safety, be entrusted. It is, therefore, with regret that we publish the following card: 1 am sincerely grateful for the partiality of frieeds, who have proposed my name a-i a candidate for County Cleric.

't he Shooting Match.

Several members of the Evausviile shooting club arrived !ast evening by the E. & C. R. R. and are stopping at theNational House. They will shoot a friendly match this afternoon with some members of the Prarie City club. This is not a club match for the championship as at first supposed but merely a friendly match between members of the two clubs.

The Prairie City Club will visit Fvansville some time next month when a match for the championship will take place'. We could not learn the names of all who are to participate in the match to-day, but AI. Schaal the crack shot, will be one of the representativs of Terre Haute.

No productions of Rev. E. F, Howe have been more generally praised than his two recent lectures on ''Italy" and "The Romish Church,J' a full synopsis of each of which was given in the GAZETTE. Mr. Howe has given his congregation such feasts—of reason, we mean—since his return that a ntimber of other churches are thinking seriously of sending their pastors through Europe. The GAZETTE engages, in ad vance, each and all as correspondents.

To the Voters of Vigo County I learn tbat my position on financial question is not fully understood throughout the county, and to put the matter at rest I will state that I am with the people, and am in favor of the unconditional repeal of the act of Congress passed by the Republican party—known as the Sherman resumption bill, forcing specie payment in 1878. I have no opinions that I would conceal, and think the Democracy of Vigo should know the position of each aspirant for office, on the money question at least. W. J.

Rysdyk's world-renowned stallion Ham bletonian, died at Chester, Orange couuty, early yesterday. The horse was about thirty years of age. He was tho sire of Mr. Bonner's king of the turf, Dexter, aid of many other trotting horses of the country. The income trom Hambletonian was over §10 000 a year. It is said that at one time ?100,000 was offered for the horse. He was'" bought about twenty-seven years ago for $120, from the Seeley family, at Sugar Loaf, Orange county.

Before Mr. Rysdyk's death, he selected a place wnore the old horse was to be buried in a fenced iu lot, with appropriate headstane. He left a clause in his will, that under no circumstanbes should the borse's remains be multiplied after death. Two offers were made yesterday, one of 4,000 and one of I,000, for Hainbletonian's hide, for the purpose of presexving the horse in his natural shape* but the offers were refused by the Rysdyk fomily. The grave was dug yesterday alternoor, and the famous horse is to be buried with honors to day.

A Modest Man in a Dilemma. A Parisian lady, who was about to start for this city, stopped at the store of an exceedingly modest business man in Paris, a few days since, and, after transacting some business, informed the modest gentleman aforesaid of her intended journey. As the lady was a valuable patron of his establishment, the busiDess man oflered to escort her to the railway station and seat her in the cars. His offer was gladly accepted, and the couple started for the depot. They chatted pleasantly as they walked along the street, and all was lovely, until tbey reached tho end of tho sidewalk. There wa3 a sea of mud between thorn and the platform of the station which seemed almost impassible.

Tho lady looked at the modest business man wiih a glance which seemed 'o say, "Now then, sir, show your gallantry." T.ie modest gentleman was in despair. The lady dew clared that she could never wade through that horrid mud. Our hero proposed that sheshould lean against the fence and make herself comfortable while he would return and bring a carriage but just at that moment the whistle of the locomotive was heard in the distance, and his (air companion seemed ready to cry at the prospect of being left.

Now modest bu^inc^ men, iu common with other men, have a perfect horror of womens tears, and when our hero saw his fair friend about to give way to despair, he quietly decided that desperate cases like this required desperate remedies. Iu spite of her mild protests he threw his siroug arm around the slender waist of his companion, and lifting her high above the ground, pluuged boldly into the mud. He soon deposited his burpen on the platform and hurried her into the car just as the conductor gave the signal for the train to pull out. When he turned toward the crowd on the platform our modest gentleman was greeted by the grinning faces of a score of old ac quaintances. He buried his face within the fold of his coat collar, and hurried home determined that the next helpless female who wanted to go to Teire Haute might get there the the bes* way she could, she should have no assistance from him.

KOILJJM 10 TAX-FAIISUS.

To CITY TAX-PAYERS: Tho 17th day of April, 1876, is the last day for paying your CITY TAXES for 1875 a/ id it should be borne in mind that the WHOLE AMOUNT CHAROED in the duplicate must be paid on or before mat day,- or a penalty of 10 per cent* will be added to all taxes remaining un paid after tbat date. The Legislature at the last regular session changed the time for paying from the third Mon day of March to the third Monday ot April and there can be no extension beyond that time. A great many people have gotten the idea tbst tbe penalty is simply at tbe rate of 10 percent per annnm, and that after it is onc9 added the taxes need not be paid for- a year. This is a serious mistake The per cent, is a PENALTY ADDED for non payment, and the Treasurer is required by law to proceed to collect all delinquents immediately after the Clerk has addsd the penalty and returned tha delinquent list to him which at fartherest will not be later than the 1st of June next, when the tax of each and every delinquent will be placed in the bands of a special constable (or collector) for collection. It will be seen then, that instead of paying 10 per cent, per annum, you really pay from 40 to to 60 per cent, and that it would be much cheaper to borrow money at big per cent per annum, with which topavyour taxes than to let them run delinquent. Those who have rea estatf will confer a favor by calling at the office between now and the 1st" ol April to see if tho property is correctly listed so that recipts can bo made out.
