Manager Leake was in the city a few days since, and after looking through the building and examining its internal arrangements, unhesitatingly stated that it was the best arranged and mast complete building for the purpose outside of New York, and it was excelled by but one in that city. The house will certainly be open to "amusement people by Christmas.

A REPORT is current in the Third Ward that the School Trustees propose to teach the white and colored children in the same rooms. We are authorized by the Superintendent, to Btate that such is not the case. The school law would not permit this, even were the Trustees disposed to so mix the children.'
SUSPICIOUS.—Yesterday morning,'about two o'clock, a man was heard walking on the roof of the addition in the rear of Bement & Go's. Mr. Egbert Curtis Was awakened, and upon making a light, the man was heard to jump from the building to Koopman's barn adjoining, and from that to the ground. Look out for burglars.

MR. BRIGGS AND THE QUAKER SOLDIERS.—Tho Rockville Republican states that that part of Dan. Voorliees' traveling baggage, known as John C. Briggs, (candidate for Circuit Prosecutor,) had his war memories refreshed in a way not so pleasant or palatable, especially at I hi* time. At the conclusion of the speaking at Annapolis last Saturday, a number of the soldiers of the 11th cavalry, who remembered Briggs as assistant in the Quartermaster's Department of the regiment, began to call 'Briggs! Briggs!! Briggs!!! take the stand and turn over that overcoat, blanket, blouse, etc., you stole from us in the army.' The Demo crats, not understanding the" facts thus charged, innocently took up the cry, demanding a "speech from Briggs," much to the discomfeiture of the gentleman."
PRIMARY ELECTION.—The following is the result of the Sullivan county Democratic Primary Election, held on Saturday last, for nominations for the county offices:
Representative—N. D. Miles, majority i,6n. Auditor—Robert M. Griffith, 33 ma jority over Murray BriggR, editor of the Democrat, and the present Auditor.
Treasurer—David Crawley, 54 majority over next highest man. Qerk—Jesse Bicknell, 1,260 majority over Ben S. Wolfe.
Sheriff—T. J. Lund, 145 majority over Mat McCammon, who was the next highest.

Irustec—Thos. J. Humphreys. JLs*essor—John Rodgers. Justice react—J. W. Brodie. Constables—J. J. Brodie, R. C. Riggs and T. C. Lovel.
"WHIP BEHIND!"'—As we were coming down Main street yesterday morning, a ten-year-old lad clung agonizingly to the coupling pole of a countryman's wagon, enjoying the sweets of a stolen ride. A moment or two afterwards another boy appeared who was going in opposite direction. He at once set up a shout of "Whip behind," and the farmer not knowing but a theft was in progress, stopped his team, and the little fellow dropped from his perch to engage in an earnest conversation with his informant. Doubtless, he will square accounts the first time he catches his informant taking a similar ride. This incident is enacted almost every day by grown-up people. A poor devil gets a tolerable grasp on the coupling pole of fortune, and with toe upon the axle, settles himself in his mind that he will have a smooth ride for a few months at least, but ten chances to one every man who is passing the other way will yell "Whip behind," while some sneak trots along in the shadow of the wheel, ready to take his place the moment be drops off.
MARRIAGE LICENSES.—The following ^ceases were issued by the County Clerk last week B. G. Cox and Lizzie E. Naylor." Charles Clark and Zilpha Gilbert. Isaac Davis and Mollie E. Clayton. John Davy and Fanny M. Haynes.
THE Republican meeting at Hartford on Saturday was quite respectable, both in numbers and intelligence. W. W, Curry made one of his best speeches, and was so carried away with his theme that he left room for Mr. Bondinot to say but a few words.
||OUB city will hare this winter better halls, and more extensive accommodations for amusement people, than any city of like size in thl®west. The princi pal halls will be the Opera House, Dow ling Hall, Academy of Music, Beach's Hall and Pence's Hall.
No MORE WHISKY.—We heard a prominent saloon-keeper say yesterday that he intended soon to cease selling whisky and strong drinks and keep only wines, beer and ale. Were all saloons to follow his example, temperance people would have less cause for complaint. ———————
WANTED.—Terre Haute wants water works, the commencement of a system of sewerage, and a Nicholson pavement on Main street, and Vigo county wants a new court house. All these wants cannot be supplied immediately, but it is not too early to earnestly agitate the same. ———————
SALARIES OF TEACHERS.—We print in another place a list of teachers employed for the public schools, and the salaries paid each. It will be observed that forty-two teachers are employed. The total salaries paid is $25,150, being an average of a little less than six hundred dollars to each teacher per annum.
SAD ACCIDENT.—A child of John M. Riggs, living one mile west of Staunton, was scalded to death a few days ago, by the mother pouring water out of a window, which fell upon the child without the mother being aware of its presence. The child suffered most intense pain until death relieved it of its suffeaings. The child was aged two years and five months. <Brazil Miner>. ——————
W. W. CURRY spoke to a splendid meeting at Carlisle on Wednesday. Sullivan county Democracy, just now, is in a happy slate of fermentation over the result of the recent primary election, by which some of their best men were slaughtered, and people should not be surprised at a great falling off from the large democratic majority heretofore given in that stronghold of Democracy.
A PACKAGE of intensely interesting letters, written by a young lady in Indianapolis to a married gedtleman in this city, was found on Seventh street yesterday. The person who had the ill-man-ners to read them, threatens to hand them to the gentleman's wife. Should he do so, domestic discord and fierce civil strife" will be the result. We suppose the pusilanimons fellow who holds the fire-brand wants to be bought off.
GOOKINS, TNE ARTIST.—The New York Evening Pott has the following with reference to our former townsman, Mr. J. F. Gookins: "J. F. Gookins, a young and brilliant painter of Chicago, accompanied by his wife, sails for Europe by the steamer City of Brussels to-day. Mr. Gookins is the author of several very successful figurative subjects, among them "Love's Discovery," and "The Fairy Marauders," have been commended by the artists as works of merit. Mr. Gookins intends to be absent about one year."
A STATEMENT has been going the round of the press to the effect that the intoxicating drinks used in the United States cost anually the enormous sum of $1,489,128,086.—The <Cincinnati Times>, asserts that no such sum as $1, 489, 128, 086 is paid for drinks. It gives $37 for every man, woman and child. But as the the women and children do not drink, it is equal to $185 for every man, and as half the men do not drink, it is equal to $370 for every man that does drink! It proves altogether to [sic] much. Our people waste enough, in all conscience, on intoxicating drinks. It may be that the drinkers average $50 a year each in this reckless waste, which would give about $200,000,000 as the aggregate thrown away. If, however, the profits of the saloons were counted it would amount to $400,000,000. This makes the above aggregate still more absurd, since it would give nearly $3,000,000,000 as the cost of strong drink, wine and beer to the American people, or more than half the gross earnings of the entire labor and capital of the country! ———————

Bagdad Items.
The Terre Haute Iron and Nail Works Company are putting in two new puddling furnaces and quite a number of additional nail machines. This increase of facilities is necessitated by the growing demand for their nails.
THE nail works, Seath & Hager's foundry and the Phoenix foundry are using iron from the Vigo Iron Company's furnace.
THIRTY-SIX MEN, mostly all new residents, are employed at the Vigo Iron Company's furnace. This indicates an addition of more than one hundred persons to our population by the establishment of one furnace.
THE furnace is now turning out about twenty-four tons of iron daily. Its full capacity is not less than twenty-eight tons per day.
THE T. H. & I. R. R. Company's works are now turning out a lot of patent dump-cars to transport' stock to the blast furnace.
A LARGE amount of coal, in excess of what is used, is being deposited at the furnace.
THE Greencastle nail factory is using a shipment of iron from the Vigo Iron Company's furnace. ———————
The Wigvram Saturday Night. Quite a large audience greeted B. Wilson Smith^on Saturday evening, on the occasion of his first political speech in this city. He seemed as oool and self-possessed as if it were old business with him and his reference to political history of parties, and the features of their platforms and policies adopted, showed clearly that he has been both a reader and careful observer qf poetical events. The attention given his peech for an hour and a half showed it to be very acceptable to the people. We infer from a remark made at the close of his speech, that we should look to the future for his speech that would be the keystone of his campaign.
He opened his speech-by a reference to the "stump" as an American political institution, more celebrated for the realities of which it was the exponent than the Hustings of England, or the Forum and Berna of ancient Greece and Rome. He said that the people gathered about the American stump to hear canvassed the claims of rival candidates and parties, and that this institution' was the exponent of a high degree of personal freedom and civil liberty. Two parties, he said were now before the country—one an old party having swayed the destinies of the nation (as they claimed) for half a century, and professed to be the handiwork of Thomas Jefferson. Its professed principles were the best interests of the people, whose voice they declared (right or wrong) the voice of God and State sovereignty.
The other in organization was a young party organized at Pittsburgh, February 22d, 1856. Its platform was laid in the immutable principles of the immortal Declaration of independence. It declared specifically for a Homestead law, and against the Twin relics of Barbarism, Polygamy and Slavery. He declared the principles of this party had been wronght by the*long struggles of humanity for liberty and equality. That we received them from our fathers and our fathers from such worthies as Algernon Sidney and John Milton. This new party is now in power, but the old party were asking the people to put tnem out, that a Democratic rule might again be
inaugurated, put them out? Had thqy not been the loyal party that saved the nation in the late war? Where they not the adocates of the complete unifaction of the nation? Were they not the enemies of the Southern dogma of States-rights, nnd its covert kindred State Sovereignty? Oh! turn them out because they have failed in their financial policy—and for the reconstruction of the rebel States and, above all, for the Fifteenth Amendment. But to all of these charges, he had a'satisfactory answer—Our finances were healthy—Greenbacks had appreciated to within a little of the value of gold.'
But the debt and rates of taxation were rapidly diminishing—prosperity was visible everywhere—and everywhere the people were usually contented and happy The reconstruction of the rebel States was satisfactory—as might be seen from their general prosperity, and as a further evidence it is safer to travel there in 1870 than it was in 1860. As to the 15th Amendment, a Democrat was the last man to object to it. It was "not necessary to secure to citizens the right of suffrage. 'It might be stricken out, and hilst the 4th section of the 4th article of the Constitution and the 13th and 14th Amendments remained, citizenship end the right of suffrage were granted to "all persons born in the United States, and naturalized under the laws thereof." This was no new dogma. It was the Democratic theory as announced to Conress by Burk, Rathburn and demand, emocratic members of the Committee in the Dorr rebellion case, and indorsed by every Democrat in Congress—proclaimed from the stump in the campaign of 1844. But the 15th Amendment was part of the Constitution—and even rebel Democrats would have to take the medicine of their own prescribing.
He next reviewed the seventeen years of Democratic rule in Indiana and laid along side of it the Republican rule of ten years (almost.) In the one (seventeen years)—in a time of profound peace —the debt gi-ew almost four millions of dollars, in the other—though in the midst of a fearful civil war and consequent deranged finances—almost ten millions have been paid, and yet, during these ten years, the State has expended more than two millions in the way of State improvements. Of such a record as the ten years of Republican rule any party might well be proud, and he rested well assured that the intelligent people would never thrust out such a part^ to fill their places with the representatives of the modern democracy. Their record was too public their leaders were too odorout. Nothing was toosacredfor them to touch. They diverted more than a half million dollars of the school fund away from the poor children of Indiana gambled off a million and a half dollars' worth of Georgia lands for one thousand dollars, and squandered thirteen hundred thousand acre? of land in Indiana that Congress gave the State for the benefit of public schools, and never returned one dollar to the State Treasury. The people would never trust that party with power again.
Such are a few of the points of this speech, not made by a politician, but by one of our citizens whose life has been so blameless among as that even the Journal has never villified him.
W. W. Curry was present, and, in response to the usual loud call, said a few good night words—and said them well.
THE MECHANIC ARTS.
BY THE "FAT CONTRIBUTOR.
The Shoeauker.
There is no more promising mechanic than the shoemaker. Yon may not always rely upon the quality of his material or his work, but yon may depend upon his promise. When did a shomaker ever promise to have your boots done at a certain day that they were not done with promptness, with the trifling and unimportant exception of "treeing oat?" Yoa can't tree a shoemaker on his promise, we can tell yoa.
In the early days when people went barefoot shoemakers had very little to do. A strike among the Knights of St.. Crispin was almost unknown. Then sandals were introduced, which consisted simply of a flat sole, worn under the foot and secured by thongs. The great objection to the sandals was, they leaked badly in wet weather, but water-proof blacking had'not then been introduced.
It may be said for sandals, that during their prevalence nobody ever heard of in' growing toe-nails or corns.
For a long time uppers were only known to the upper classes, and men down at the heel dispensed with foot cov ering altogether. Finally, shoes were generally introduced, and in a short time it appeared singular, and remarks were excitra, if a man came to a full-dress party barefooted.
Then it was that the shoemakers began tb thrive and acquire an importance in community. Instead of being called a "sandal-making son of a gun," ne was allowed to style himself a "purveyor to the pedal extremities" and a merchant bootist."
The history of the changing fashion in boots and shoes would fill a volnme. Sometimes they were made open at the toe so that this part of the foot was exposed, and we may add that a class of people known as "seedy" still cling to that peculiar fashion. Then they were made with high tops, composed of the skins of wild animals, lacing up in front and ornamented at the upper extremity with the paws and head, arranged in a flap that turned over. Long-pointed shoes, twisted like a rams horn, was worn in the reign of William Rufas. The style became fashionable, and the points soon increased to such an extent that they reached the knee, to which they were secured by chains of silver and gold. gentleman promenading in that rig must have resembled an old-fashionea goose-neck cutter.
Following the long-pointed shoe, came the shoes with wide toes, till, at last, an English queen was compelled to restrict the width, by proclamation, to six inches.
In the 16th centnry, boot-tops reached enormous dimensions. The Puritans came over in these great boot-tops, which had the effect to alarm the Indians engaged in the leather business, with the Drospect of a panic in the leather market.
Wooden shoes, worn very considerably in some parts of Europe, possess the advantage of wearing a long time without ing,' in which they resemble sandals, icking a man down stairs they are nvaluable. There is not much more skill required in making a wooden shoe than in making a pig trough, treeing out being the chief difhculty, though that depends a good deol on what kind of a tree you get it out of. Any-wooden head can make a-wooden shoe.
The Chinese are adepts at Rhoemaking and are warmly welcomed by the Knights of St. Crispin whenever they come to this country. They made it red hot for a lot of them in Massachusetts the other day. Complaint is made of Chinese shoemakers because they work so cheap, but this is owing to a misunderstanding that will soon correct itself. Learning their trade in China, where ladies' feet are only two or three inches long, according to the fashionable standard, and where it don't take much of a shoe to cover the female foot divine, they unquestionably guage their wages at too low a figure, but when thev have had a little more experience in making No. 12's and 14's for our American belles, they will discover their error, and demand a raise, sure. Johnny Chinaman is no fool, not even when "Johnny is a shoe-maker".
Shoemakers as aclass are as industrious as they have become indispensable Barring a disposition to tell you, when you come Saturday night for your boots, solemnly promised, that they "will be done on Wednesday, sure," the shoemaker is to be*relied on, but how can you expect a man to keep his word when he gives it so readily?
In speaking of the shoemaker we hope our readers will excuse us for omitting the customary allusions to his sticking to his last, improving the understanding, and.au/i that. We know it is expected, and is generally done, but we beg to appear singular in that regard just this once. —Oin. Times.

Tremendons Sensation.—Wonders will neTer cease.—The people marrel mneh!—Since the advent of Dr. Fritz, the great Indian Physician, in this city, office No. 100 Main street, the excitement not only in that vicinity, but wherever any of the numerous patients he has cured can be found, has been most intense. The old story, the lame walk, the blind see, the deaf hear, and the sick are restored to health, is a stern reality in our midst and what will be scouted at as too marvelous to be true, is now demonstrated in so palpable a manner as to leave no room for the slightest doubt or uncertainty. That the Doctor is achieving a vast deal of good in this community, no_one will attempt to deny, who has given the subject the slightest examination
A few of the cures performed we will herewith present, and could many more did not the want oflspace prevent. He is now treating aver two hundred cases in this community any of which can be referred to, and njany more are arriving daily. Mr. Jacob Smith is entirely cured of deafness of eight year's standing. Wm. C- Johnson entirely cured of a kidney difficulty. M. Reiley, Lung and Liver difficulty, is now well. J. C. Hayt, has been troubled with rheumatism for the past six years was cured by the Indian Doctor in three weeks time. Mrs. A. S. Stilson, lives a few miles from the city is entirely cured of blindness. It is needless to enumerate cases further. Any person having donbts can call at the Doctor's office and he will give the names and residences of hundreds who have been cured, or they can witness the rejoicings of his patients as they call at the office for further treatment. We would urge upon t.11 those who are afflicted to throw aside their prejudice and at cnce and consult him, that they to may add their testimony to the wonderful evidences of success.

What Did It? Lyon's Kathairon made my hair soft, luxuriant and thick, and Hagan's Magnolia Balm changed that sallow complexion into the marble beauty you uow see. This is emphatically the language of all who use the articles. A fine head of hair and a refined complexion arc the greatest attractions a woman can posess. The Kathairon and Magno lia Balm are just what will give them to you, and nothing else will. The Balm is the bloom of youth. It makes a lady of thirty appear but twenty. Both artic les are entirely harmless, and very plesant. They should be in every lady's possession.. Jy27w4w

SPECIAL NOTICES.
A Charter of Facts.
Spaco is valuable in a aewspaper, and it is therefore proposed in this advertisement to condense a variety of facts, Important to tho public, into a small compare* those facts refer to Hosteter's Stomach Bitters—what that celebrated medicine is, and what it will do. In the first place then, the article is a stimulant, tonic and alternative, consisting of a'combination of an absolutely pure spirituous agent with the most valuable medicinal vegetable substances that Botanic re-serch has placed at the disposal of the cenrest and the physician. These ingredients are compounded with great care, and in such proportions as to produce a preparation which invigorates without exciting the general system, and tones, regulates and controls the stomach, the bowels, the liver and minor scretive organs.
What this grate restorative will do must be gathered from what it done. Tho case of dyspepsia, or any other form of indignation, in which it has been periirtently administer, ed without effecting a radical cure is yet to be heard from, and the same may be said of billions disorders, intermittent fever, nervous affection, general debility, constipation, sick headach, mental despondency and the peculiar complaints and disabilities to whien the feeble arc so subject. It purifies all the fluids of the body, fncluding the blood, and the gentle stimulus which it imparts to the nervous system is not succeeded by the slightest reaction. This a chapter of facts which readers, for their own sakes should mark ann remember.
