THE Democracy of Indianapolis have selected the following victims to be voted for, in a small way, at the Mav election: John Fishback, for Mayor Samuel Beck, for Treasurer E. F. Gall, for Clerk: Jeff. Springsteen, for Marshal and James D. Allaire, for Assessor.

THE

Sentinel is our authority for stat

ing that the Auditor of Stale, after a thorough examination of the law, has decided that he has no authority for defraying the expenses ol" the late Legislature, aside fro in the pay of members and

employes

of that body.

A PROMINENT citizen of Lafayette suggests, through the Journal, of that city, he propriety of having a meeting of the Citv Council three times a week, and of charging an admittance fee. In the absence of amusements he thinks the Council Chamber might be made to take the place of an opera-house, and at the same time bring in a revenue to the City Treasury. He also thinks twelve better burlesque performers could not be picked than the twelve members of that august body. Being something of a critic in the dramatic line, bis opinions ire entitled to

&xtai4aratio&>

the Reform School Record we learn

that there is deep regret over the havoc which the disruption of the Legislature played with the programme that had been laid out for that Institution, for the ensuing two years. It was intended, provided the Legislature approved the plan, to buy additional land, and to erect two additional family houses, besides a hospital and some small shops and out houses.

All of this seeuied to be necessary from the pressure upon the present capacity of the Institution. The present buildings were intended to accommodate only two hundred inmates notwithstanding this, twenty more than that number are in attendance, which is all that can possibly be taken. Several applications for admission are now pending, but their denial is a necessity, and no more boys can be admitted until a considerable number shall have been discharged. During the warm weather not more than two hundred can be accommodated. It is a great loss to the State that ample appropriations for the contemplated extensions were not made.

THE

Evansville Journal ventures to

say that there is not a city in Indiana that can boa*t of as many tall men as Evansville, and in support of the claim cites the following names, with height and weight: Frederick A. Goetze, editor of the Union, height 6 feet 11 inches, weight 2S0 pounds George W. Shanklin, attor ney, height feet 7 inches, weight 230 pounds W. B. Menefee, salesman, height feet inches, weight 225 pounds L. J. Shepherd, clerk in Collector's office, U. S. Internal Revenue, height feet 3i inches weight 240 pounds Henry Benker, saloon keeper, Independence, iate policeman height feet 3 inches, weight 196 pounds. Aggregate weight I,IG1 pounds, averaging 232^ pounds each. Aggregate height 32 feet 3 inches, averaging feet 5 2-5 inches for each. Besides these, there are two or threescore of little six footers, that "mar down" about two hundred pounds, and one colored man, O. M. Moman, not enuiiier ated above, who measures a'out feet 4 inches, and weighs about 220 pounds.

FROM the New A1 ban ledger we learn that the wife of the Rev. E G. Wood, Presiding Elder of the JefFersonville District of the M. E. Conference, died on Tuesday of consumption, after a protracted and painful illness. Mr. Wood is one amongst a few surviving pioneer Methodist ministers of Indiana, and his deceased companion was universally loved and admired not only for her pure Christian character, but her many amiable qualities.

JOHN GUAIIAM and Lewis Morrell, while standing on the platform at Osgood, Smith & Co's wheel factory, at Indianapolis, on Wednesday, got into a dispute, when iiorrell seized Graham and threw him from the platform to the ground, fifteen feet below. The latter in falling pulled over on himself a large pile of spokes. Lighting on his feet, one leg was broken square ofl'below the knee and the bones of the other foot were broken and forced through the foot into the ankle joint.

DOCTOR T. A. BLAND publishes a card to let the world know that he is "deeply pained" because Anna Dickinson substi tuted "Joan D'Arc" for "To The Rescue,'' at Indianapolis the other night. Doubt less Anna will be intensely agonized when she 'cams what excruciating torture her change of programme inflicted on the venerable Doctor, whose chronic habit of grumbling at public singers, lecturersetc., keeps him always in the deep waters of aflliction.

NOTICING the appointment of Col. Charley Smith as Mail Agent, the Evansville Journal says:

The sight of the Colonel's face will be a very welcome one in Evansville, and we shall extend to him a cordial welcome.

AN exchange states that Charles II. Walker was arrested on Tuesday by Special Mail Agent T. II. Bringhurst, at Aurora, for robbing the postoflice. ll was taken before Commissioner Knefl'er and committed to Marion county jail, in

default of $2,500 bail, to await an examination on the 2-ith inst.

PITTSISUIIO.

DESTRUCTIVE L-'IRE.

PITTSBURCJ, March 10.—At an early hour this morning fire originated in the Buffalo House, at Petroleum Centre, Pennsylvania, which place is composed entirely of wooden buildings. The fire spread across the street and on both sides as far south as Aiken's Hall and north the bank of the creek, leaving the American House standing. Fifty-eight buildings, dwellings and stores, besides barnes &c. were destroyed, the fire sweeping five acres clear.

Among the heaviest losers are .James Rutherford, hardware, entire stock and building, loss 88,000 Petrlcum House furniture and building 810,000 IL C. Waehter, groceries, slock partially secur ed, 83,500, and Owen Gaffney, liquors, 810,000. The entire lo«s is estimated at 8150,000.

SAN FKAWCISCO.

VOLCANIC.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 9.—Mount Hoirit^", Washington Territory, appears to be tiring up for a volcanic eruption. The heat at the summit has grown so great as to melt the snows, though heretofore the hottest summers only partially melted them. There is a constant emission of steam, and some parties living in the vicinity claim they see smoke as well.

CODFISH.

The schooner Romp, with the first cargo of codfish for the season arrived from Chaimaquin Islands last evening.

NEW I.1NK OF STEAMERS.

Webb advertises the new steamer of the line Nevada, to sail April Sth, touching at Honolulu and Auckland, Wellington, Lyleton, Port Challniers, New Zealand, connecting with steamers from New Zealand to Australia. Freight only taken to Auckland.

BOSTOX.

FREEDVF.N'S AID SOCIETY.

BOSTON, Maich 10.—At the annual meeting the Freedmen's Aid Society, the Secretary, Mrs. E. D. Cheney, read a report giving a review in detail of the transactions of the Society for the past year. The condition of things is more favorable in South Carolina than any other State, that State having adopted a public school system recognizing white and blacks on equal terms. North Caroliha and Virginia have also taken action, and in part initiated a public school system. The situation in Maryland and Georgia is not altogether encouraging, owing to opposition of a portion of whites and a portion of the blacks. Governor Claflin was re elected President of the Society.

T'HU'AUO.

DE.-TEKATE AFFRAY.

CHICAGO, March 9.—A desperate affray occurred in Alderman Burns' saloon at Aurora, Illinois, on Monday night, between two brothers named Slatterlv and an old man named John Ashford and his son, which resulted in the death of one Slatterlv and the old man Ashford, while the condition of the other two participants in the affray is such as to render their situation critical. The fight took place just after the close of an election held that day. The parties were all under the influence of liquor.

lUClittOXD.

FUSE.

RICHMOND, YA., March 10.—A special dispatch from Orange Court House says that a tire ill that place yesterday afie'rnoon destroyed a hotel, the house of Worth & Yates, Baptiit church, the store of Ritaii & Co., and thrftj •Urellihtr hmigmt.

ST. LOUIS..-/

THE TORNADO.

ST.

LOUIS,

March 9.—The deaths caused

by the tornado which passed over East St. Louis yesterday p. M., as far as known, are seven, as follows: John Stalpin, employed on the bridge John B. O'Neill, purchasing agent of the South Eastern R. It. John Vogel, Dan'l Collins,Timothy Drumm Isaac Evans, Engineer on the Chicago and Alton R. R., burned in the round house John Eisly, brakeinen on the Toledo-and Wabash R. and a teamster, name unknown.

Of the wounded, the following are the most seriously hurt: Henrv C. Graveling, iiuperintendent of the Wiggins Ferry Co., right shoulder fractured and head cut by the chimney of a ferry boat falling across his carriage George Schone, master mechanic of the Chicago & Alton R. R., terrible cut cn the head and one leg, and body crushed Margaret Conway, both legs broken Michael Conway and two children, fearfully cut about the head and body Louis Barron, head badly cut L. Marks, of Nashville, 111., head shockingly cut Chas. Parry and Thos. Hamilton, seriously cut Peter Flynn, leg broken Frank Donnegan and wife, badly hurt Milton McFarland, seriously hurt Aaron Stauns, agent of Adams Express, head badly cut Harvey Stockman, yard master of the Toledo & Wabash railroad, head terribly cut Timothy Donahue, same road, head badly cut Wm. B. Ennett, fireman on Wabash road, shoulder dislocated Wm. Hill, blacksmith, Wabash road, head terribly cut, will probably not recover Peter Philohon, conductor of a Pullman sleeper,seriously Lucy Glasgow and Barbara Lincraft, seriously, the latter will probably die Margaret Richardson and child, the latter fatally Margaret Nolan and child badly cut, the latter cannot recover Ellen Dalton, seriously Timothy Howard, Chicago railroad, terribly cut about the head Eliza Powell, head badly cut Wm. Stark, pilot of ferry boat, seriously Mat Quinn, Vandalia road, arm broken Frank Edwards, engineer Vandalia road, terribly scalded W. F. Gainey, foreman of Vandalia round house, arm broken. The less seriously and slightly injured will outnumber the above.

The immense mass of frame work in and around the eastern abutment of the bridge, consisting of derricks and massive supports for other hoisting apparatus, was blown down like so many reeds.

Some thirty families were rendered homeless by their houses being blown down, most of the latter were totally destroyed.

The steamer Mollie Able lo3t her chimneys and texas. All the upper works of the iron ram Vindicator, owned by the Ferry Company, were swept away.

The tug boat Hewitt, belonging to the Bridge Company, lost her upper works, and Capt. Montgomery was blown into the river, but he was saved with slight injury.

At the sectional docks on this side of the river, below the city, the storm struck slightly, carrying away the chimneys of the steamer W. B. Dance, and displacing her cabin several inches, and forcing the steamer Rubicon and several barges from their moorings. At the Pittsburg coal dyke, on the Illinois shore, the ferry boat America lost her upper works, and her pilot, Richard Johnson, was very badly hurt. Several small houses were demolished at this point.

LOSS BY THE TORNADO.

ST. LOUIS, March 10.—The losses in East St. Louis by the tornado on Wednesday were much exaggerated. A more careful estimate places them at about the following:

Elevator $15,000 Ferry Company, S10,000 St. Louis and Vandalia Railroad between $30,000 and $40,000 South Eastern Railroad $15,000 Chicago and Alton $50,000 O. M. $30,000 Toledo and Wabash between $75,000 and $100,000.

The steamer Mollie Able is much more seriously injured than at first reported. She is almost stripped of her upper works and $30,000 would hardly repair her. The losses to citizens cannot be accurately given, but as some sixty dwelling houses of more or less value were either destroyed or damaged, the loss can hardly fall short of $100,000. The railroad companies are busy repairing damages, and citizens are endeavoring to gather up the remnants of their houses and collecting furniture together. Reports from the country are coming in, and speak of more or less injury in the track of the tempest. In some localities the damage' was considerable. In Morgan county, Ills., houses, fences and forests were blown down and several persons badly injured. At Helena, Ark., the same afternoon a hurricane passed over the city unroofing a number of houses and doing other damage. Property was also destroyed at (.-• ceola and other points on the west bank of the river.

MILWAUKEE.

RAILROAD MANAGER.

MILWAUKEE, March 10. Marvin Ilughitt, late General Superintendent of the Illinois Central Railroad has been appointed Assistant General Manager of the Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad.

CINCINNATI.

DIED.

CINCINNATI, March 10.—E. M. Spencer, for IS ysars connected with the Cincinnati Times, died suddenly this morning of disease of the bowels, aged 48.

A WORD TO OUR COM ETITOit.M.

We undenstand that certain merchants in this city, and a vary large number of country merchants, arc complaining bitterly at what they term our monopoly of the Drv Good.! trade. Gentlemen! we came to Terre Haute to break up Monopolies— not to form them! Our road to success is not a royal road. There is irj secret about it. Any one who wishes to do so, may walk in it. You HAVE ONLY TO MARK DO'.W YOUK OLD STOCK ABOUT O.VE-IIALF—GET RID OF IT—BUT NEW (IOODS AS CHEAPLY AS WE DO, and in selling them, BE CONTENT WITH A LIVING PKOMT, and the Sabbath-like stillness of your stores will soon be broken up by the siime eager throng of customers that you so constantly meet at our establishment. Far better do this, than seek to bolster up a business "growing smaller by de grees and beautifully less," by slander and abuse of us—for in this your customers are finding you out. You make a great mistake when you think they are so simpleminded as nc to know for instance, that an Atlantic Mills Muslin is the same in vour store liiat it is in ours. You are selling it at TEN cents a yard, aud we are selling it at SIX cents, but this neither makes yours nor ours any better or any worse. It is the same Muslin still. That is all, gentlemen now drive ahead exactly you please. Your abuse only advertises us and injures yourselves, so we can
