hael-Ganzague-Pedro, the second, of Alcantara, Emperor of Brazil. What nameless outrage coulil be worse than this nameful one? Could a jewelry store full of silver spoons as a heritage dating from infancy, compansate for the crime perpetrated on hind at the' baptismal font? Who would be an Emperor at such a price? Who would not rather be. called plain John, and make his own way in the world, than have the revenues of a kingdojto 'coppled, with a name which it would tax the resources of a type foundry to set in print and exalts hyphens above all the letters of the alphabet? We understand perfectly well that it was to the greatness of his name rather than to any largeness of his stature that Alexander owed his fame—at least that is what the poem says—but.here is this Brazilian Emperor, whose name is so confounded great, in length, breadth and thickness, as to weigh him completely down and forever interpose an impenetrable barrier through, and out of which he may never hope to emerge.

people if they elect him to the Governorship. The Independents will not be loner in doubt about this mat ter."
And 6o Frank is still the candidate of the Independents. It is yet their purpose to rally around the great American pig sticker, in spite of his having spat in their faces, and said it was an insult to ask him if he had accepted the Independent nomination, meaning thereby that he had not. We never agreed with the financial views of the Independents, but we did think they had sense enough to know when they were kicked. •.
'A. Hucli Named Emperor. HER® in our free America the most of us regard an Emperor as a fellow born with a silver spoon and predestined from the origin of time to live onjthe fat of the land and enjoy himself right royally. We never look at the dark side of a picture. Are now Emperors, lives all sunshine? Do not all sorts of trials harass them? Do not imperial burdens weigh them down? Take for example the case of this Brazilian Emperor now visiting our shores. Has Don Pedro no eorrows? Is he a man without care? Let us see. At a very early age, when he was too young to offer successful re sistence to the outrage about to be perpetrated upon him, what did his imperial parents do to him? They named him jean-Charles-Leopold Salvador Bibiano-Fraacois^Xavier-

i»mci»dal)le Enterprise.
The Terre Haute Gazette of Wednesday evening, with commendable enterprise, published to the last gasp the proceedings of the democratic state convention, and the patriotic citizan of that city pressed his burn» ing brow to his downy pillow that night with the asaurd consciousness that whether he relished the democratic nomination or no. whether he liked or lumped theplatform whether he adraire'd the bouqnet of the hog with Landers, took his snake-root straight with Holman, or marched unber the cerulean-jeans gonfalon of Uncle Jimmy—or eschewing these, straddled in the footsteps of the diplomatic and rubicund Orth—he was exhaustively informed of just what had transpired in that howling, perspiring and effluveut body up to the time (hat tinfoil and damask kissed each other in the flual whack of the gave!.
Personal Paragraphs.
Mr. Simon Hirchlerwill go to MattoJn this evening. Etnil Meyers with Lee Goodman Jr., will go to Paris this afternoon. THE ofllja of the National is proof of it business.
Mrs. Ryan's funeral took place yesterday afternoon. There were not as many Indianpolitaus in town last evening attending the leap year party as were expected.
Messrs Urao and Dolar the new fruit men, will open next to Luduwice's, the latter part of next week.
Tom Jnckson wishes to notify all parties who are indedted to him that if they do not. pay up before Friday, May i2, he will puhlish their names in..allJhe city papers
Miss'Fanuie Hughes, who went to Pittsburg six weeks ago, mainly for her health, retur.-.ed a few days since, worse, rather than better. .. -'A three thousand dollar payment has been made lo Col. Win. Sellers, the east end hardware merchant, on accouut of the damage done to his property by the Ivu Klux, while a resident of Lancaster, Ky. "Still there's more to follow."
Mr. L- S. Calder has ooened a dry good3 store in the weat end. This is something of a novelty for that end of town, and will be duely appreciated. In securing Mr. J. B. Rupe as head salesman Mr. Calder made an excellent choice. Both of these gentlemen are men qf character, and they will win.
No person who ever went through au art gallery without a catalogue will do'so again." The finest paintings have their charms added to one half by the knowledge of the barest scrap of history connected with them. If this is true of a little ait gallery, how much more so of the immense wond's exhibition at Philadelphia. A reliable catalogue of all the articles on sale there will be invaluable to every tourist. Such a work Button & Hamilton will soon have, lhere is no humbug about it, and beside, the money spent for it will be among home merchants and this, In this centennial year, whe everybody will spend money abroad, is a gosd "deal.
Seventh and Main continues to be the Terre Haute Gibraltar, a name the GAKETTK applied to it some time ago. It hoids the key to the eastern trade of the city. A person can't pass Pete Mischler's stand without going in and he can't go in without buying.
Another specialty. White & Mewhinney believe in progression. There is no retrograde in them. They first added excellent facilities for farmers and others to set good lunches and a nice comfortable place to eat them in and now they are adding all kinds of fresh foreign and domestic fruits to their stocK, making that a specialty. They are having some beautiful stands made to hold this fruit, of which branch of retail business, they intend to make a specialty.
There is something that the medical f&culty should not lose sight of and that is that good humored doctors sel* dom lose their practice
And there is something thftt business men, clerks and others should not lose sight off and that is thst Bruning'd is the place to get a good square meal. Ee sets before his patrons, everything which the most comprehensive appetite could crave.,
All this week society has been busy discussing the great theme, the new, the overpowering sensation, the opening at Riddle's. Mr. Riddle's popularity in conducting a wholesale and retail notion, and a wholesale milliuerry trade, was sufficient guaranty that his new venture would be a sacoess, and that his store, always handsome, would presents brilliant appearance, and would be greatly admired but the long continued, and in fact, growing admiration which the ladies have bestowed upon it is more flattering than was expected. From the Mail we cull the following partial description
The north wall of the room is covered with artificial flowers of every conceivable shade of loveliness—the "ecrue," the various shades of blue, and in fact all the handsomest novel» ties.of tlje.seasofl. On the south side
North End Sockets.
Mr. Pat Hanofan is able to b9 out again. Congress corner is frequently swarmed with politicians.

A buggy collided with a lamp post Thursday evening, near the I. fc St. L* freight house, and the consequences was that two wheels were badly damaged, and two men badly scared. No lives lest.

ing a scene the richness of which can only ho appreciated by an artist or a lady. Among the different shades are is all the new ribbons and silks- maktho "mottled," the "ecrue," the peachbloom," the "pearl," the "cream the "sulphur," and the various delicate shades of blue. The Hats are in the center, end look like a gorgeous bed of flowers. Nothing so handsome has been seen in the city as this display. They range in price from twenty-five dollars down. Before the mirrors, in the south end of the room, there is, of course, a throng of lac' ies "trying on" hats,
B.iddle's line qf jewelry is as complete, as ever. Over the notion department, Mr. Hughes, formerly of the Prairie City, [Emporium, presides to general satisfaction.
WITH the spring comes a good many things beside the lightly turning of a youbg man's fancy to thoughts of love. It is housekeeping time. Things must be bought to beautify the old home, and atnontj theyi are bird cages. Then again, if the.excellent lecture of Judge Long, on Izack Walton, has arouBed a desire to indulge in the peaceful sport of fishing, some tackle is indispensable, All of these, and many other articles, are kept at Slaughter & Watkin's, on Main, north side, between 5th and 6th
The new flour and feed store of J. Y. Reed, opposite the Opera Stables, Main and Eighth streets, is a fine institution. Best of flour,
brar,
hominy,meal,
seed, oats, ships tuff, hay and corn, first-class and cheap. Mr. R9ed is a bird fancier also, and furnishes the finest singing canary birds, imported singers, mocking birds and other fine songsters. Go see him.
It is an admitted fact that two-thirds of the drunkness and debauchery is caused by the use of poor whisky. A good simon pure article, is much healthier and costs no more. Con Cronin is the man to buy such an article of. Saloon on Main, between Eighth and Ninth street.
When Mr. N. Katz9nbach left the his old stand on Main street, between Fifth and Sixth, where he had been for years, the most popular cigar man in Terre Haute, to devote the most of his time to his wholesale trade and factory, it was thought that no gentleman cou'd be found to step into his shoes successfully. In the persons of Messrs Reagan & Long are found the men wanted. Both, though young and on intimate terrrs of socialilityiwith all of the boys, are business men of tact and shrewdness. Tbev are adding to the large trade alreidy built up there.
If your teeth are in a bad condition and yoh snould need the services of an accomplished dentist, you cannot do better than to call at the office of O W. Ballew, on Main street, over Sage's old stand. Ballew does all dental work in a manner which cannot fail to please and his prices are as low as any in the land.
Painters have been at work during the past week on the building occupieu by R. W. Rippetoe, on south Fourth street. The front has been painted white, iu order to correspond in out ward appearance, as it does in internal conduct, with its famous phototype on Maiu street.
Rippetoe is always up with the times. Ho watches the market, and keep3 his stores filled with all thecotnmodities which the public taste calls for. As the Easter season is now upon us, Rippetoe has laid in an extra sopply of onus, which ha is selling to his custor/iers at a tremendioue rate. Not withstanding the extraordinary de H^nrifl hn K»LL .at tho lowest market price. He receives daily a supply of butter fresh, sweet and of the best quality, which he deals our to bis myriads of patrons, at tbe lowest rate. He keeps a most complete assortment of vegetables and fruits received daily from tropic*! markets.
The weary traveler never finds a more comfortable haven of rest than the National Hotel of this city. This establishment is presided over by three gentlemen who thoroughly understand the secret of conducting a hotel, and of making their guests com fortable. The table is always supplied with an infinite variety of choicest viands, and,the wants of guests are attended to by a corps of polite and efficient waiters. Messrs. Garvin, Heinly & McCosKey executed a fine stroke when they moved tbe office of the hotel to the ground floor, and their business, which was always large, ha_s preceptably incresed since this improvement was made

Yesterday about 11 o'clock one of her boarders, a man named Coins, who has worked in the E., T. H. te C. rail, way shops, came hume. He explained his early arrival by saying that an engine had broken down at Danville, and that he had been sent by r. Walker, the boss, to do some work on it, which required the skill ot a good mechanic. Mrs. Bsnsinger wished to get him his dinner, but he said that it would be a matter of little consequence as he could reach Danville iu half an hour, and get his dinner there. Mrs. B. knew better than this. The spurious Coin had betrayed itseif. She immediately began to suspoct something, and, so, prevailed on nim to stay until the girl could get dinner for him. She then left ostensibly to go to a neighbor's, but she really ran down to see Mr. Walker at the shops, He told her that Coins had been discharged tho evening before and that he had already received bis time, and perhaps his money. He added that t^ere were mechanics at Danville competent to do, any work that might bo needed on an engine, if any damage had been causect, which there hau not. With something resembling an elephantine Ilea in her ear, Mrs. Bensinger went back to her house and demanded of Coins $23, which he owed for board. He said he had no money, but would be back the next day and pay her.' She then told nim what Mr. Walker had said, but even that did not embarrass this discipla of Ananias. Undaunted he began to manufacture another series of falsehoods. He said that it was true that he had been discharged and bad received his time, but had not received his money. He explained that he had received a job at the Yandalia shops,- Picking up some of his traps he started in that direction. Mra. Bensinger also went towards the the same place, but in a roundabout direction and espied Coins wheel round on the commons and make lor tho Sixth street depot. When he saw her he hroke into a disorderly run.
JACKASS RABBITS AKE NOWHERE
to his speed. Mrs! Bensinger seeing that she could not successfully give chase dropped in. at the house of Officer John Downey, Who was peacelully. reposing in his little bed, dreaming or Long Poi*t, and had bis wifewake him up. Officer Downey.hangs his clothes on a hickory limb when he goes to bed, in order that with a bound and a whoop he may get into them and

prisoners without
delay. It is owing to these precautions which could, with profit be imitated by tne craft, that Downey makes the excolleni officer he is. Mrs. BeDStinger in the mean time, was giving pursuit with, under the exasperating circumstances, a good deal oi the pardonable viRor which characterized Mrs. McScinger's pursuit of the recreant Captain Cuttle. She saw him rush into the saloon just south of the depot. Meetiug Officer Staley.the apprised him of the circumstances, and Officer Downey coming up a flank movement was organized against this runaway section ol the
SPJECXE BASIS.
One of the officers went around to the rear oi the saloon and the other closed in from the trout. Through some unaccountable means
COIN MADE His ESCAPE
and was nowhere to be seen, About this time the train came in bound for the west. Officer Staiey, suspecting that Coins might make an attempted to board it, went round to the north side and saw him slip between the freight cars on tbe north bide of the track, and ju3t as Coins was stepping qn the engine, Staiey nabbed him. He was taken around on the platform amid tumultuous applanse. Counoilman Gist is said to nave clapped his hands till the blood came but this may have been superinduced by the paroxysmal squeezes which Gist indulges in about election times. Coins was marched iilto the baggage rooms. He asked Mrs. B. what he owed her, and was told $23, beside 52 for washing which had been sent out to be. done for him. Taking out a well filled wallet —everybody who saw it saye that it must have contained f200—the scoundrel paid his bill and leit.
