|6gr An additional police force of eleven men—seven for night and four for day service—has been put on by the municipal authorities, to serve until the close of the Fair weok.

Dr. Frtrnsvorth, of Indianapolis,

whose advertisement appears on the first page, will be at the Terro Haute House, Wednesday,ThurBday^and Friday of nest week.

WetT We learn that an eminent analytical chemist of New York, has made an analysis of the wator that flows from Mr. Ro9e'fl Artesian Well. We have not been able to obtain a ~opy of it. Our people are anxious to know tho constituents of tho water, since so many have been benefitted by its use, For the information of tho public, we ghould be glad to roako tho analysis known.

Msg* They havo queer ideas of hospitality up in Lafayette. The Journal of that city gives the following account of a "friendly mill" which occurred there a few days ngo "An ex-editor of this city, and country editor in town seeing tho elephant, yesterday took into their heads to drink an other well-known ciLizen drunk. On the twenty-fifth round, country editor went to grass, and was carried off on a shutter.— On the thirtieth the ex-editor went UD ler, leafing the citizen master of tho jeld, straight its a shingle. Lafayette wnisky is death on weak-kneed suckers."

The St. Louis, Vnndalia and

Torre Haute Kailroad, Gen. WinRlow, the contractor, is progressing satisfactorily. This is what is -known as the Brough route. The road bed has been laid from the Mississippi to Highland, ready for the track. Tho cross-ties and bridging have been obtained. The grading is being pushed energoticall}' towards Greenville with the view of reaching that point by tho ond of the year. Those interested at this end are on the alert, understand what 13 to io done, and vriil put their energies to the work.

THIBD WABD LAST NIGHT.—'The

larg

est and most enthusiastic mee'.ing ever held in tho Third Ward, took place last night,. Short, sharp and tolling speeches wero made by Hons. John G. Crain. Albert Lange and Thos. H. Nelson. Tho series of ward meetings start off finely, and by the time the series are completed,

the

camp fires will burn with greater brilliancy. Bear in mind the meeting to-night in tho Second Ward, at the School House. Let it bearouser. Good speakers will be in attendance.

ffgg- We published the other day an article from some exchange recommending the putting of fait in the mortar with which bricks in chimneys are to be laid The effect will be to prevent soot accumulating, owing to the dampness produced by the salt. Salt being tho principal constituent of Mr. Rose's Artesiaa Well, we learn that the experiment has been tried by mixing mortar with the water from that well, end the result will be known, BO soon as sufficient time shall have passed for the tost.

Salt mixed with clay harden? with a glaze, and makes fine brick to be used in furnaces, and firo places. If the water of the well will serve in thatrespect.it will add another claim for its value.

STATE FAIR.—Tho

FLY."—

Creasy, a hard nut from

the Sucker State, was up before the Mayor last night, charged with being drunk and disorderly. The Mayor ad. ministered the law to hiin in the usual manner, by assessing tho sum of $8 50 againit him.

The gentleman,iiowover, became all at once very thisty, and while the Marshal was showing him to the ice water, with which to cool his parched togue, he broke for the door and down stairs. He wont at a fearful rate, and so great was his swiftness of foot that ho distanced both the Ma.-shal and Constable Rowland, who went in hot pursuit of him. and made his way sately over tho rivor. Oar fat friend( the Marshal, returned from the ehisn, panting and sweating at a fearful rate.--Had it been daylight, it would have furnished a rich sceno in our streets.

grounds and build

ings (or holding the State Fair are about completed and aro being fitted up for the reception of the articles for exhibition, the amphitheatre is finished Rnd roady for use. Thero is some fine fnsl trotting stock in training on tho grounds. The half mile track, save and except the dust, is in good vendition tho mile track is in & forward stale of completion and waiting for rain to settlo tho ground. Tho fonciug is all completed and tho whole fair ground, including the last, addition, about seventy acres in ail, is enclosed in a tight board fer.co. The preparations by the Board seem to be ample to have one of the largest lairs ever held in the StatoThe^numerous sheds,liooth sand buildings for eating houses and rofr ^hment- stands give assurance that ih- people will not want in that line. T" grounds will bo supplied with plent* jl OS pure water as can bo found in the State. There is being prepared under the supervision of Mr.

Jas. Hook, a chsck room for taking care of all kinds of baggage, such as trunks cat pet sacks, over cent?, satchels, umbrellas, shawls, dinner baskets and such articles as people may find convenient to have and troublesome to tako care of. This cheek room will be a great accom*. toodation at such a place. Families wish ing to visit the fair can take their dinner and have a safe and convenient place to keep it without having to detail a guard to watch it. All that teems to be want ing to make tho fair a success is some rain an articlo very much in demand at this time.

tSP There are tweoty.two prisoners in the county jail awaiting trial before the present term of the Circuit Court

We understand Tilley, who shot

Bruns, will have no preliminary exami nation, but his case will go directly to the Grand Jury.

MAYOR'S COURT.—A

young man nam

ed Small wood, for associating with prostitutes was docketed for a bill of $15,00 and for assaulting somebody, an addition* al fee of $6,00. Two females of bad character were assessed in the usual fines and costs.

We ask the attention of house

keepers to the card of Brown & Melvin, dealers in china, queensware, glassware, house-furnishing goods, lamps, cutlery, &c. They have a good stock, are clover dealers, and offer goods at prices that in duce buyers to come again. Give them a call.

HOBSE THIEF CAUGHT.—Saturday

af.

ternoon Prof. Olcott drove his horse and carriage to his office about half-past two o'clock, and in half an hour afterwards on luoking for it, neither horse nor vehicle were to bo seen. Thinking some friend had taken it for a short drive, he gave himself no uneasiness until near five o'clock, when a vague suspicion was aroused that a bold horse thief had captured it. A slight clue was obtained of the supposed direction the thief had taken, and on Sunday morning, the Professor, in company with Capt. Shewmaker, started out tho National road in hot ursuit. At Cloverland. ten mile3 out, a full description was obtained, which stimulated the pursuers that they were on the right track, and at three o'clock the same duy overtook the man thirty miles west of Indianapolis. Prof. Olcott and Capt. Shewmaker obtained the services of Pieasant Moss, the deputy Sheriff of Putnam county, and the man was securely bound and brought to this city, the party arriving at sunrise Monday morning. The msn was turned over to Sheriff Kizer, and the Grand Jury being in session, an indictment was immediately round, and the enterprising horse dealer will soon take another trip eastward, towards the penitentiary. He gave his name as Price, and also as Page, and is the sleek-looking young man who for several days past has been engaged in soliciting advertisements from our business men for a Directory.

Prvf. Olcott iB under grateful obligations to Capt. Shewmaker in proffering his assistance, together with his horse and buggy in overtaking the thief.

STATE FAIR!—Secretary

Holmes and

Superintendent Sullivan have arrived in the city and have opened an office in the Terre Haute House, where they will be happy to meet everybody who wants to talk Fair. Those of our citizens who contemplate exhibiting articles will find this place, and the present week the most convenient and pleasant opportunity to mako their entries, as they will thereby avoid the confusion incident to the rush that must come next week besides, by making their entries now, they will afford a better opportunity to those who^come from abroad. Already quite a number of entries have been made, and the reports from all quarters indicate the largest industrial exhibition ever held in the West.

It is now definitely ascertained that several of the fastest horses in the country will boat the Fair to compete for the $1,000 premium.

Sunday morning while the fire

was raging near Thompson's mill, the barn attached to the new residences, in course of erection by Mr. J. D. Early, on Ohio street, was set on fire. It was fortunately discovered in timo by Col. Stewart and the fire extinguished. Yesterday mornng about four o'clock it was fired again and again a timely discovery was made by an early rising servant girl..

Had the flames attained headway while the Fire Department was fighting tho firo on First street, there is no telling to what extent the devouring element would have wept along tho wooden buildings, on Main between Sixth and Seventh streets,

The Circuit Court convened Mon

day morning. The Grand Jury was empannellod and Judge Thompson delivered a lucid and able charge, and the twclva men composing this secret tribunal retired to their work, with M. M. Hickcox, as foreman. The following citizens compose the Grand Jury M. M.Hickcox. Charles B. Brile. John Crews. Geo. A. HartungAbraham Sheets. P. W Hagerty.

This body will be in session the whole of this weok. and having the entire time of the Prosecuting At" torney wiil dispatch business very rapidlv.

RSf Prof. Hennicg Jenson, a magician, was performing at Dubuque, Iowa, on Friday evening. He made the offer to any one in the room to shoot him with pistol loaded with a ball. The trick oonsists in fixing a tube to the end of the ramrod which withdraws the charge stead of ramming it In the barrel. The lube became detached leaving the pistol loaded. The magician was shot in the head and wounded fatally.

CHANGE

OF John

Pepoon, one of the men engaged in the railroad robberies last spring, and whese case was continued at the spring term to the present term of the Circuit Court, died Saturday evening. He was sick but a short time, and was removed from the jail to his wife's boarding house on South First street, only an hour before he died. We did not learn the nature of his disease. He leaves a young wife, bis only child haying died since his incarceration.

The old 24th Indiana Silver band

has been engaged to furnish music during the Fair at Terre Haute. &.•?%, A as in or now in the city in training for the State 7air, is the well-known horse *'Jobn A. Logan."

Iron ore of a superior quality was

discovered near Otter creek, two miles north of Brazil, last week. A mad dog was dispatched on North beventh street, near the canal, Saturday evening. At least it was said to be rabid by the excited" individnals Who were making the wildest of pistol shots at it.

The Madison Courier says that

many children are kept out of the public schools of that city for want of money to purchase the necessary text books, and proposes the raising of a subscription among tho charitably disposed to supply the deficiency.

4®* The excavations oh Main street for a new switch for the city railway, caused a load of hay to he u.ncerumo'.iously dumped on the sidewalk, SaturJHy afternoon. It is safe to say the owner was mad—or at least, vexed, as the hay was replaced on the wagon, with a good prospect of a late return horr.e and a cold supper. «•.!*'

J. M. French's Oriental Circus

and Egyptain Caravan, combined with Cullen's tribe of Iroquois Indians, which claims to be the largest Company, by one third that has visited the West this •season, will reach this city Thursday of this weok, giving two performances oa that day—afternoon and evening. The large descriptive advertisement in another column gives full particular?

Christian Bruns, who wa3 shot by

Tilley one week ago last night, dfed Saturday night about ten o'clock, from the effects of the pistol shots. The body was inteired in the cemetery Sunday evening, attended by the several German orders of the city.

Immediately alter the death Tilley was arrested and lodged in jail. Wo are informed that the man's dying declaraljons, together with some other evidence, are such as will make it difficult for Tilley to make a case of self defenso.

CAM

ED.—Yesterday was tho Inst Sabbath of tho three years' term of Rqv. Wm. Graham, Pastor of Asbury Cbapel. As a token of esteem the pupils of thv SabbathSchool presented him with a handsome silver-mounted cane. As we have before stated, Mr. Graham has been promoted to a Presiding Eldership, and assigned to the Lafayette district. We hope he may be spared to many years of useful work, and in the course of time have charge of this district, that his many warm friends may occasionally listen to bis earnest pleadings in the cause of Christianity.

SAD ACCIDENT.—Friday

evening a lit

tle daughter of ichael Kennedy, who re-, sides on Lafayette street, the first house north of the canal, fell into a pool of water in the old canal bed, and before it was discovered life was extinct. It was barely old enough to walk, and was not missed by its mother more than five minutes.

AXOTHER VICTIM.—Another

COUNTY FAIRS.—The

victim

to the folly of blowing in the muzzle of a, gun is exhibited in the person of a young man by the name of Meloy. It seems he was on a visit to his friends in Dolson prairie was in the act of going out.. to hunt, but desiring to see whether the gun was loaded or not, he placed tho^oe of hi^ boot on the lock and at the sAfti&^tirfttJblew in the muzzle of his gun The toe slipped off, as usual, and the gun was discharged into his mouth, blowing off the top of his head, killing him instantly. When will persons loam to be cautious with fire arms: His parents live in Olney.—Marshall Messenger.

Posey county

Fair, hold last week was a success the receipts being over $3,000. A correspondent of the Evansville Journal tells why it was a success:

Go through the streets of New Harmony every morning after the Fair opens, and you would find every mechanic's.shop, every store, and nearly every house closed, shut and the husbands, wives, children, maids and bachelors, all gone to the Fair. They come out to the grounds with their baskets filled for themselves and fripnd3 and they soon make tho stranger iheir friend, at least during the Fair. If your people—I mean the people of Evansviilo —would only enter into the spirit 'of their Fairs as the people of New Htirmony-and Posey County do in theirs, you- would have a Fair equal to the S.ttitc Fair.

All help, all work, all talk, all_do for their Fair, and then at night the bar room and thoatro were open for those who wished, and houses of the citizens in town and country for those who _wished to partake of true hospitality.

havo been frequently askd.l1 this important question, by strangers visiting' this locality, and we remember that a short time sinco it was propounded to us by on intelligent and wealthy gentleman, who seemed to have a special desire to'be in-' formed on the subject.

morning, about 11

o'clock, as services were commencing in the churches, the fire bells rang out an alarm, occasioned- by a fire between First and Second streets, on the s'arhe square on" which Thompsons flouring mill is situa^ ted. The steam engine was on the ground throwing water ten minutes after the alaTm was sounded, and the Niagara Hand Engine threw a stream on the fire three minutes after the stream from the' steam engine, but such was tho headway attained and combustible nature of the frame buildings, that one dwelling, four stables and other outbuildings Were consumed before tbo flames were checked.

The dwelling was the property of Mrs. Pointer, and was occupied by Mrs. Franklin and her daughter Mrs. Pomeroy, who lost nearly all their household furnituro Two of the stables belonged to R. L, Thompson, one to Mr. Gibson, and one to Mrs. Pointer. Mr. Thompson had five horses in the stables three were got out, and two perished in the flames,

The conflagration was occasioned bj* children playing with fire.

CONVENTION.—The last issue

of the Sullivan Union contains a call for a convention of the Uniou party of the Eighth Judicial Circuit, in this city on the first Tuesday in October, for th9 purpose of nominating a candidate for Circuit Judge and Prosecuting Attorney.— We believe no action has been taken in this matter in this county. As tho date uggested will be during tile Week of the State Fair, it will bo the most convenient time, should it be necessary to call such a convention.

COUNTY FAIR.—Wo spent half an hour Friday afternoon at the Fair Grounds, in company with perhaps, two hundred visitors. No one seemed to expect much of a show, and we are sorry to say, no one was disappointed in their expectations. This partial failure, is of course, well understood by our people, and will not work to the prejudice of exhibitions in future years, wh a great State Fair shall not overshadow the efforts ».'f the County Sjcietv. and when there will be mare unanimity action.

Floral Hall was the only space needed for exhibition purposes, and in it wefound a fair array of greenhousa plants shown by Heinl Brothers arid a tempting displayjof grapes by Jos. Gilbert. Mr Heinl also exhibited some very (hte'grapes from Hsrmann,'Missouri.

A fair display of fruits—mostly apples —was made by Messrs. P'HJJf,' Price, McMurtrie, Soules and Curti Gilbert the first named being' awarded tho premium on apple9. Marshall Cjoper exhibited the finest peaches.

Mrs Patrick and Mrs. Pegg sent in a collection of canned fruits, which showed they wore adepts at such things.

Silas Price and Ch. Phlagan furnished tbo show of vegetables, among which, were some good specimens of pumpkins squashes and "sich.:!

The patch-work quilt department was filled by contributions from the needles of Mr.?. Shewmaker,- Mrs and Miss Allen. There were several other articles of needlework, but wi could not learn by whom sent in.

Weisz' factory furnished the,

touly

hoop skirts on exhibition. A collection of pictures from O'Conneii's helped v.eny considerably in adorning tho Hall.

As before remarked, none of the officers, feel discouraged at the'result, and with-the-grounds already furnished, we predict next year oneof the'finest county exhibitions ever, before given.

In reply to a statement made by

Col Alexander at a Democratic meeting in Gofport a few days since, and published i,i yesterday's Journal in such language as to convey the impression that our fellow-citizen A.

tSSS" A chronic grumbler i? convinced thiit dog days do not end on the 5th of September. The almanac-makers he declares, have made a Sirius mistake:

BOTTOM ROAD.—A oommunication in yesterday's Journal explains why tho building of a road from McElroy's to the bluff failed. The writer ?ay*:

It is true that among the gentlemen present with the Commissioners and Engineers many of them wished to See aroad abovo high water pointing to their own door, which is quite natural, but the principal difficulty was that, instead of an embankment averaging six feet high and eighty rods long, as was at first represented, and which would have cost probably $2,500 it was ascertained oy actual snr"vey by Messrs, Strout and Demorest, competent engineers, that to make a good road above high water, would require an embankment averaging thirteen feet high nnd one hundred and twenty rods Jong, making 28,000 yards of earth work,which at 25 cents per yard, would cost $7,000.— You will see, therefore, that it is the magnitude of tho work and its cost which renders it-impracticable at this time.

N EW FIRM.— J. F. Depew has associated himself in business with Mr. I. Clatfelter, under the firm of Depew & Claifeller, at No. 61 Main street. With a full-stock of Boots and Shoes, of the best materia at the:.- lowest possible rates, they hope to receive a liberal share of public patronage. I dlw-w2t.

This is a wise movo, and one which will be followed in all localities as fast as tho sun of intelligence lights up the dark places in the benighted minds of those who make school rooms a slow rack of torture for the little ones, whoso minds are often stunted by the iron hand that throttles feir intellect at toe very threshold of edcfltion.

ROCK.VILLE.—We

York, we

learn, they are having an ample supply of rain, while here we aro being most thorougly baked and parched up. Andj what is still worse, people- who are governed in their calculations of the weather by the changes of the moon as laid dQWn in the almanacs, persist in saying that this state of things must exist for -n fortnight more yet, and that we are to havo no rain of consequence until the/th of October.— If the weather is-to be governed by almanacs made in Ne^ Yark, we shall, of course, have to submit to such as we get but it is strango if some smart Western man cannot got Up au opposition calendar that will do justice to the people here.

EARLY

are rejoiced to learn

that our neighboring town of Rockville is slowly but steadily and sureiy improving. Our informant says that a number of good houses aro in progress, and a magnificent block built by Gen. Steele and others is nearly completed. Thi3 building is one of the handsomest and most substantial in tho State, and would attract attention and admiration in any city in the West. Tho entire third story will be used as a hall for lectures, concerts &c., This sqaare North of tbo Court Houso is provided with elegant stone side walks equal to .any pavement in Cincinnati or elsewhere. The store room of Harding & Ward, is said to bo a model cf good taste, and convenience, and is fittod up with all tho modern improvements."

The flouring mills of Rockville are justly celebrated—and now, some enter-* prising young capitalists have put into successful operation, a largo Woolen Manufactory, with tho latest and best machinery, employing a largo number of bands. Tho new Methodist Church is neat and commodious.

The geographical position of Rockville, situated as it is, in the centre of ono of the richest agricultural counties in the State, with an excellent Railway, connecting it with the "rest of jiankind'?—its healthful location, and the long established character of its citizens," for intelligence and probity—all combine to ensure for it a brightand prosperous future. Tho only class who do not prosper, just now, is the Doctors, who complain, that there is not a sick man, woman or child in tho corporate limits.

Shall the children of the Soldiers

and Sailors who gave their lives for tho preservation of the Union be provided with homes, and receive a good education This is a question which will admit of but one answer—in the affirmative. It only remains, therefore, for us to point out the best modo in which it can be done. A careful examination has satisfied us, and will satisfy the public, that the projectors of tho Riverside Institute, located in the village of Riverside, Now Jersey, on the Delaware, havo devised the most feasible method. Acting under the charter of tho Washington Library Company of Philadelphia, incorporated by the State of Pennsylvania, they are offering stock at the low rato of one dollar per share, and will give to each subscriber a beautiful steel engraving, worth at retail more than tho price of the stock, and as an additional inducement will distribute among the stockholders presents valued at $300,000. Who can refuso to do a patriotic and benevolent action on these terms? Lot every lover of his country record his name. Read advertisement. [dwlt.
