IT DID Go UP !—After the meeting at Maxville adjourned Staturday evening, the accident to the Grant and Colfax pole was repaired, and with 'fa strong pull, a long pull and and pull all together,'' it went up majestically. It is one hundred and twenty feet high, ,.j. &

TROTTING.—A series of trotting races will commence at the Fair Ground Thursday afternoon continuing three days. A number of fast horses have arrived, among them the trotting horse Point Breeze and the pacing horse Pete Whetstone, from Philadelphia. Three horses, Idol, Thomas and Dan Voorhees are expected to arrive to-day

"Lfcr Us HAVE PEACE !"—We were informed yesterday that some members of the Fighting Boys in Blue have openly threatened the destruction of the JOURNAL OFFICE,—Journal.

That is all gammon. Every Fighting Boy knows that the more the journal raves the larger will be the Republican vote in this county. You can't get a chancy to play the favorite ^Democratic role of martyr. Your great apostle, Yallandigham, played that out.

HON. BAXLKSS Wr HANNA is said to be an eijj&^aiitic devotee of Planchei|e.^ A few evenings since he invited a party to witness the performance of the mysterious piece of mechanism. Among* the questions asked, were: "What States will go for Seymour? Ana. "Kentucky and Maryland." "Who will be the next President?' The reply was, in bold letters, "GRANT!" Planchett was not asked any more political questions and Bayless declares it a Radical invention.

MATOR'S COURT.—TWO cases of drunkenness and one of assault and battery were disposed of with the usual correctives yesterday. There was a second case of assault and battery, but the defendant, who is one of our belt citizens, convinced his Honor that in knocking the man down, it was from no malice whatever, and, strange as it may appear, really for the man's good, and he was. discharged. All who were present and heard the statement, some oi whom were eye witnesses of the transaction, were of the opinion the Mayor acted propeily.— It was one of those peculiar cases in which the least publicity given the better— each of the parties having been,and are now the best of friends--and we give no names.-

AUTOMATIC CLOTHES WASHER.—This new inventiop for washing clothes, manufactured' iti this city by S R. HendeT. son, a few doors south of the Post-office, is meeting With a rapid sale, and giving satisfaction such as no other machine for this purpose has done heretofore. It operates on purely philosophical principles, dispensing entirely with the washboard, and wherever used is pronounced the cheapest and best washing machine in use. No labor is required to use it and a "washing" can bo accomplished in half the time necessary with any other machine. It virtually abolishes the lator and drudgery cf the family washing^ and' will in a short time save its cost in the wear of clothes. It is placed in a common boiler and by the natural gen'ixajbioi) of steam the hot suds is forced &rof the clothes with astonishing. rapidity, cleansing the fabric thoroughly without rubbing. Our lady readers sboiild call on Mr. Henderson and see the machine i.n operation, and examine the testimonials in his possession, many of them from la* dies of this city.

The morals, order and quiet ^of the place aw unsurpassed There is not a grog shop gambling ^saloon, or allurement of any kind to endanger the morals or dissipate the mtnda of the students on whi6h account the students of Merom enjoy this further advantage, that the expense of obtaining an education there is much less than in any other place with which we are acquainted

THE MEETING AT PBAIBIETON .—The earnest Republicans of Prairieton have grefafcause for exultation at the success of the meeting held at the village of Prairieton Saturday evening. Two weeks previous the Seymour and Blair club of this city went down and torchlighted the village, and since that time the Democrats of that township have been strutting about like so many Shanghai roosters, but after the demonstration of last Saturday evening we imagine they will draw it a little milder. A considerable number of the Fighting Boys in Blue and other citizens went down in wagdms. A short distance this side of the town they were met by about two hundred Troopers, and led by Tout's Silyer Band, escorted into town. The Troop? ers and Fighting Boys to the number of about four hundred, then with torches bnghtly burning marched and counter-marched through the streets for near three-quarters of an hour. During the march we learn the procession was insulted with all manner of epithets, and even assailed with stones by the KU-Jtiuk DetnoCracy of that localityi Orie of the missiles passed through a transparency carried on a wagon in which.were seated a.:humher of ladies from this city, and several of the stones strhek thi men." The procession quietly bore the insults and repaired to a grove near by, no/rboobi in' the town being of sufficiont capacity to accommodate the vast assemblage. Saats had- been prepared, ahd a stand erected—the latter hahdsomely decorated by the loyal ladies of that township.

The leadUig speech was made by Col. W. E. McLean, and was an eloquent and effective ^effort. He was followed by I. N. Pierce and Hon. E. Hamilton. Loud calls were made for Col. John P. Baird, but he excused himself on account of the lateness of the hour. After sundry cheers and music, the vast assemblage of near two thousand persons dispersed^# vm

and best of the outside township meet» bigs yet held, ,took place at Nelson's Grove, in Lost Creek township, Friday, surpassing eyen^he- meeting in Honey Creek. There was1 & considerable attendance from town, and a large delegaiion of Grant Trbopers, with tastily decorated wagon in which were seated young Ja|iwidre$4ed in ^hife,'f cama :iup: frcm Riley township. This delegation was met by the Lost Creek .Troopers* and escorted to the ground. Tout's Silver Band furijusbed the music during the day.

The meeting was organized by inviting Henry Fairbanks to act as President.— Hon. John (3-. Crain spoke briefly first, •and then introduced Isaac N. Pierce, who ^poke in an argumentative, terse and Vigorous manner until twelve o'clock, iwhen a recess was taken for dinner.— Plethoric baskets came forth from wagons iand buggies, and the contents spread upon clean white cloths with green sward for a table, and the vast multitude partook •of the hospitality of the ladies of Lost Creek.

The dinner over Major W. W. Carter took the stand. He wasted no time in Oratorical effects but went right at his Jwork, stating the issues of the day, and adhered to his text, until, to the minds of 'every reasonable man, he clearly jidomonstrated, that to vote for Seymour, Yoorhees, or the rest of the frebel-sympathising crew, was simply to rspit upon the canduct of the loyal men, who for four years, by land and by sea, battled for the Union.

Hon. John G. Crain responded to a call, and closed the meeting in a few earnest and practical remark#.

The crowd in attendance was variously estimated at from 1,500 to 2,000 people. Seats Were prepared for twelve hundred persons and these were well filled during the speaking by attentive and earnest listeners. Taken all in all it. was an exceedingly good'lmeetibgf'knd highty irfcouraging to our friends in Lost Creek. It was such an one as gladdens the heart !fof the patriot and weakens the knees of rebel sympathisers.

Vice President of the United Slates, it Was decided to raise the pole and unfurl from its top the flag and streamer on Saturday last. Accordingly a large «rowd:oif the earnest friends of free government assembled, and the pole went up ln'fine style, without a single accident or interrupffeii', amiithe loud hurrahs of the assembled multitude.

I. N. Pierce, Esq., made a speech, appropriate to the auspicious occasion, a^d was followed by James H. Turner, in a few felicitous remarks. Three cheers were ^|ei^fbri$lraiit and. '$o&4liforefc for the speakers, three more for the pole, another roun^l fer the iadies, another for the State and County^tickets, and an uproarious concluding rounT for the cau^B generaliy.

It was an occasion" that witnessed the dutpouring of a people, spontaneous, patriotic, fervent iiffEefi^8?e*Sf 'tWunity-* and progress of the nation. occasion such as strengthened the confidence and determination of those whom it brought together, and tended to the disheartening and discouragement of thoi&liiiiho'iHwe on-lookers though not sympathizers with its spirit and expression. It was an occasion that conveyed a warning to the misguided and scheming, who have planned and exerted to render the g^e&t principles of liberty and prosperous, union, subservient to their own selfish ends and purposes.

The vast uprising of the loyal mas«. ses at Indianapolis, was but one of the means by which the people gave toconviction that the war for the extermination of the rebellion was not a failure, and that the principle on which this Government was established, ought and must prevail. It was an ear* nest of what the people will accomplish at the coming election. It was not only the largest gathering that has ever assembled at a political meeting in this State, but in fervor and ^spirit, in perfect keeping with its magnitude, and equally unpreeedented.

The day was all that could have been desired. The rains of the previous days had washed the face- of the earth and settled the dust. The air was cool and bracing, while the sun shone in its kind* liest style in fact, there was everything of blue sky, bright joyous sunlight and delieiotls{coolness of-air that the most earnest well-wisher of the glorious cause of the Union could desire.

At an earlj hour the people began to pour into the city from all directions.— Delegations in- tastily decorated wagons, delegations on horseback, and families in everj* species of vehicular arrangement. Added to these were .the long lines of railroad trains coming in from every direction. Some estimate may be formed when we state that up to noon a few over two hundred cars were unloaded of their living freight in the vicinity of tha Union Depot. #,

The regular morning train from this city landed at Indianapolis loaded down to the very bottom steps with eight hundred people. The special train came in with sixteen cars, carrying our Fighting Boys in Blue, Cuqua's Band and Stevens' Martial Band, with a large number of oar citizen^ and others came in on the evening' train co witness the torchlight demonstration at night. In all Terre Haute contributed not less than eight hundred tothe vast gathering.

As each delegation arrived and marched down Washington street cheer upon cheer went up from the people who thronged the- side-walks, door-ways and windows. The manner in which the "Fighting Boys'1 were entertained by the people of Indianapolis was indeed creditable. At the two Market Houses long tables were set with all the edibles that go to make a good, hearty dinner, and here for two long hours the ladies waited on the tables as the "Boys" filed in, satisfied their hunger, and gave place to other comrades. There was a great plenty provided for all, and we must say that in no other town in Indiana could alike en* tertainment on so grand a scale be under* taken.

At half past one the speeking commenced in the State House Square, from three stands. General Charles Cruft was chosen President of the Day, with one Vice President from each Congressional District, and three Secretaries.

General Hurlburt and Hon. Sam Galloway spoke from the first stand Hon, A. G. Porter and Gov. Oglesby from the second stand and General Gibsoti, Gen. Willich and Horf. Henry S. Lane spoke from the third stand- Of course we cannot give our readers even a synopsis of these masterly speeches.

The great gathering was remarkable not from its numbers albne. From the time of the announcement of the first speakers until the close, the most intense interest was manifest. The multitude stood in quiet, listening intently to each word as it fell from the lips of the speakers. The most perfect silence and order was maintained throughout save where the utterance of somo fervidly patriotic sentiment "caused the people to breakout into the loudest and most vociferous cheering, which subsided only to break out again and again.

The stands were widely separated, and yet those at the outside of aachaudi«oc« mingled with those listening to the other speak«r«—leaving thousands unable to get within heariogof the speakers. Never before was witnessed in Indiana such a "Sea of Loyalty 1"

At each stand were suspended warworn flags of Indiana regiments. As thf vast assemblage gaged upon them, all torn by the bullets cf trea'son and stained by the blood of patriots, they did not for* get that every shot and shell, which hurtled through those flags or (pattered the blood of jour soldiers npoti them, was impelled by Democratic powder, and guided by Copperhead hatred. Many a wounded and battle-worn veteran looked

Mottoes and devices of the mo*t incisive character, were exhibited from the buildings on each side of the line of march windows were illuminated, rockets exploded, and with the thousands of torches carried by the Fighting Boys, Tanners, and other organizations, Washington &t?eet seemed all on fire.

The "Fighting Boys in Blue" were the marked feature of the procession. They presented by theirateady steps and lofty demeanor, ail the appearance of an. army marching to the rescue of their country. They no doubt.felt inspired by the same feeling that animated them on many a weary march over Southern swamps, and over Southern mountains their object was the same inse^both eases and the victory to* follow the demonstration of Wednesday will be as signal as that which crowned their efforts in 1865 at Richmond^, The army of rebels surrendered at Petersburg, the hosts of their sympathizers will be demolished at the polls in October and Nevember.

HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.—Saturday moving the remains of Sylvester Sullivan, ij siding near St. Marys, were found .on the railroad track near the trestle-work, a short distance west of this city.^ :The body was horribly mangled, and from appearances, three or four trains passtd over it, crushing and cutting into an almost unrecognizable mass. By some, suspicions are entertained that he was murdered and laid on the track while others of his friends entertain the opinlen that while intoxicated he laid down upon the track to meet a terrible death. He leaves a wife and thrbe children. •. 9*4* 4#
