Monthly Meeting of the Society,

Upon the Placid Banks of Lake Fluvanna.

From Friday's Daily.

The regular monthly meeting of the Terie Haute Horticultural Society was due on the 3d inst., but was postponed on account ot the pieparations for the Fourth. Yesterday was the time selected, and a most judicious choice it was, too. Though hot, the day was free from dust, and a pleasant breeze made the beautiful Gilbert Hill a delightful place to spepd the afternoon. Mention h.-s been made of the recent improvements on the lake in the way of bridges, boat houses, new boats, &c.

Mrs. Warner, the secretary, opened the meeting yesterday by reading the minute* of the business meeting.

Larger fruits were reported on by Mr. F. Sonle. The observations of Mr. S. were not encouraging.

Smali fruits were spoken of by Mr. A. B. IVgg. whose remarks were equally gloomy ?o the lover of fruit. Grapes are falling off badly.

After adel ghtful dinner a photograph ot the late Corey Barbour was presented by Mr. D. H. Wright through Hon. Wm. Mack to the society. Mr. M. made some remarks highly appropriate to the occasion.

Poultry was honored with mention from Mr. Hulman, and Captain Potter made some statements on meteorology.

An es^ay on cooking was read by Mrs G. C. Duv, which was very highly enjoyed and appreciated.

Pestiverous bugs received "a scoring" from Mr. C. M. Barbour. Mr. Lawrence Heinl favored the BOcietv with an account of his recent trip to Toledo with the grain dealers. Mr. H. was much impressed with what he saw, and gave a good account of it. "Ttie Greek Drama" was the subject of a paper by Hon. Wm. Mack, who said at the outset that he was conscious it had little to do with the Horticultural society.

who didn't approve of the Bacchanalian revels, and didn't want toogeneral familiarity of them diffused. He had a good deal to say about the corruption of the Greeks.

Publication was, however, voted on and unanimously carried. The theme "Does Charity Increase Pauperism?" had been chosen for general discussion, but wa* postponed, and instead Mrs. Rydelotte read "The Kentucky Belle."

Ttiere have been few so delightful meetings of the society as the one of yesterday, and its memory will long remain green.

THE shrewd business ability exhibited by some of the large manufacturing firms of the country, and to which in a great measure their unexampled success is due, has become the wonder of the mercantile world everywhere. We »arely remember hearing ot a more successful instance of this "Yankee Smartness" than a business stroke lately made by the N. Y. Furnishing Co., of

431

Broadway, N. Y. City, and one of the largest shirt houses of the country. As no doubt some of our many readers will remember, raw cotton was selling some months since at a price which barely paid for the cost of production, a state of things which was in a great measure due to the depressed condition of trade at Manchester, England, the great cotton centre of the civilized world.

The N. Y. Furnishing Co., foreseeing the enormous rise which must eventually take place in our greatest ^staple," and having command of large capital, purchased heavily of the raw material in Southern markets, and at once concluded a contract with one of the largest Eastern mills for its manufacture into muslin, in such quantities as they should from time to time require. The late enormous rise in cotton has at once placed this Company at the head and front of the lar„e shirt firms of the. continent they being enabled to supply a fine grade of 6hirts in any quantity, at a price, in many instances, less than one-half that charged by other houses, who are obliged to purehase their stock at the advanced rates. This firm are now sending their celebrated "Excelsior" shirt in large quantities to all quarters of the globe, one recent shipment to Australia alone, being 2,000 dozens. The liberal system adopted by the Company in furnishing their goods to the public, in any quantities from a single shirt to one or more dozen, at wholesale rates, is explained at length by their advertisement in another column. h-'

CHOKED TO DEATH. On Sunday morning at half-past nine o'clock little Ella, a bright, two year old infant of T. H. Haring, of 1411 south Third street, was playing on the floor with two little dogs, to which she was feeding cheese. Her mother was present and laughed at her playfulness. The little thing put a piece of cheese in her own mouth, and laughing as she swallowed it, choked to death. The unfortunate mother did all she could to restore her child, but without avail, and is almost crazed with grief. The funeral notice appears elsewhere. 1

NEW HOMINY MILL. Mr. D. C. Greiner has gone into partnership with Mr. Phil Newhart, and they will engage extensively at ence in the manufacture of hominy, grits, &c. Mr. Grenier is an' excellent business man, and the new firm will be sure to prosper.

On the Dead 8odiee ot Frederick Balers dorf and Charley Gibbs.

From Tuesday's Daily.

Yesterday's GAZETTE contained a* account of the deaths of Frederick Baiersdorf and Charley Gibbs.

BAIERSDORF.

Henry Ehrenhardt, coroner, was called upon and held inquest, and the following evidence was given. S. D. Clift, conductor, being sworn, testified as follows:

The accident happened at Reelsville on the T. H. & I. R. R., at 6:30 o'clock, July 14th, 1879. While making a stop for water I saw him. I saw him leave the caboose for the purpose of stopping the train by means of setting the brakes. I know positively that he had two or three brakes set. The next I saw him was lying on the south side of the track. I went to him found his left leg badly crushed. He told me that in passing from one car to the other he fell, and one truck passed over his leg. We took him to a private house and sent for a physician immediately. Said physician told me that he could live but a few hours. I immediately notified the authorities by wire to get him home as soon as possible. I received an answer to bring him heme, and also an order giving us the track over all other trains on said time. We arrived at the city of Terre Haute at 10 o'clock, A. M., July 14th, 1879, and Fred Baiersdorf was taken to his mother's immediately.

Harmon Stove,sworn: Stated that he helped take Charley Gibbs out of the water.

John Jahe, sworn: Stated that he also assisted in taking Charley Gibbs out of the water.

Those present could very well afford the divergence, since the essay was unusually interefting, both in its matter and manner of handling. In the ceurse of the essay the feasts ot Bacchus were lengthily described. At its close a motion was made that the paper be printed, but this was opposed by Capt.

Reiman, was drowned near the "boom logs" in the Wabash river, north of the central part of the city. The little fellow could not swim, but had been holding on to chains connecting the logs. I'le slipped his hold and was lost. Divers were along time recovering his body. It had accidentally been fastened down with a pike. At last Mr. Goodman secured the lifeless body.

The figures are from official returns made by the several county auditors in December of 1S7S but hitherto, although the taxable value of the several counties was easilj ascertained, it has been difficult to arrive at a correct conclusion as to the amouat of the various k'nds of property taxable in the cities and towns. The full statement in regard to the cities whose taxables are valued at more than three millions is as follows*

OBITUARY.

WM. BRASHER.

From Monday's Daily.

William Brasher, being at the time of his death one of the oldest living male residents of Terre Haute, died yesterday morning at 7:40 at his resider.ee near the Main street bridge, of the consumption, of which he has been sick about eleven months. The announcement of his death caused universal surprise and sorrow, as his sterling qualities ot heart and neighborly kindness had gained him a host of friends.

The deceased was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, April 14th, 1817, and on July 26th of the same year, being not three months old, moved with his parents to Terre Haute, where he has resided up to the time of his death. When he came here, sixty-two years ago, Terre Haute consisted of a few block houses, the country infested with hordes of Indians and everything in a wild and uncivilized state. In the year 183^, at the age of seventeen, he was apprenticed with D. Hannah, to the deceased Tom Dowling, who was at that time editor and publisher of the Wabash Courier. He served four years apprenticeship as a printer on the Courier, and continued at the trade without any intermission until Col. Dowling, in the spring of 1842, sold the Courier 10 Jesse Canard. Dowling then started the Wabash Express, a weekly issue, the original of the present paper, and the deceased went over to the Express and worked for a considerable period. The deceased, at the age of thirty-five, July 13, 1852, was united in marriage to Miss Kate Burns, his junior, who survives him. The marriage was one of an uninterrupted state of happiness. After retiring from the printer's trade the deceased worked under T. B. Snapp as a journeyman carpenter. He was appointed as keeper of the bridge October 2, 1878, holding the position with credit nearly two year*. The illness which terminated fatally, commenced August 21,1878. The deceased leaves a wife, two aged sisters in Iowa, and a brother in Ohio. The deceased never had any children. The funeral took place at 4 o'clock this afternoon. and was attended by a large concourse of friends and mourners. Thus one by one the old inhabitants of Terre Haute are passing away to their final resting place*

AUGUST GERHARDT.

August Gerhardt died Saturday morning at 9 o'clock, after a short illness. The deceased was born in the Grand Duchy of Baden, July 15, 1820, and removed to this city shortly after. He leaves a wife, Catherine, and eight childen, three of which are married—Mrs. Phil. H. Monninger, Mrs. Andrew Roderus and Mrs. George Almy. The tuneral lock place yesterday afternoon from the family residence on south Thirteenth street.

A GHASTLY JOKE.

Louis Guetig is jolly. His slippers had worn our, and yesterday the colored man of the jail was sent out to purchase a pair. Those he brought were of somber colors, which didn't suit the festive voung man, and they were returned with instructions direct from the prisoner to "get brighter colors—something that will be sure to last until the 19th of September." Then came a shout of boyish laughter from the man who is to be hung to death on the 19th of September—[Indianapolis Journal.

MUR .DER IN THE GREE.

FIRST DE-

JAMES GRAIG INDICTED FOR KILLIi JAMES M.LoNG—THE TESTIMONY TAKEN BEFORE

THE CORONER.

From the Indianapolis Journal. The funera 1 of the murdered man Long took pla&e yesterday forenoon, at Frank's block, J3f which deceased was janitor at the time of his death. Coroner Wishard cor, tinued the taking of testimony all day yesterday, though not much that is ne vv, or has been heretofore published welicited. Among the half- dozen witnesses examined was Andrew J. Fiscus, who saw most of the, assault and helped carrv Long into the building after the assault. This witness was half a square awa^', a nd twice yelled to Craig to stop striking .that man. The striking continued however, until Fiscus came up to the parties when Craig ran away to his stable. As they carried tl~e injured man into the building a pint ot blood rushed from his mouth.

This witnesb and several others who saw the assault, say that Craig struck as though with the palm of his hand swinging blows with his right hand. Some ot them noticed some thing in his hand covered with canvas, and held to the hand by a string. Others did not notice that he used any weapon but his fist. The testim»ney therefore|upon this point, both before the coroner and the grand jury, is unsatisfactory. It is generally believed, however, that the murderer ha3 a solid substance of some kind in his hand, in order to have done the damage he did. Search is being made for the instrument of death if there was one.

The murdered man was kicked several times in the side and region of the stomach, and was struck in the back also. In fact the evidence so far 6hows that he was most brutally maltreated. Coroner Wishard will continue the taking of testimony to-day. The report of the surgeons who made the post-mortem examination is expected to be ready today.

The grand jury, yesterday, found an indictment against-Craig, for murder in the first degree. Craig continues noncommunicative, refusing to talk upon the subject of his crime with anybody except his intimate friends and his attorneys. His wife spent two hours at the jail, yesterday.

DROWNED.

CHAS. GIBBS MEETS A WATERY GRAVE WHILE RESCUING HIS COMPANIONS. From Monday's Daily.

This morning about 11 o'clock three colored boys, Chas. Gibbs, George Rouse and a young brother of Gibbs', were swimming in the river back of the artesian well. They had been in the water about half an hour when Rouse and the younger Gibhs slipped from one of the "step offs, and as neither could swim, sank.

The elder Gibbs tried all ia his power to save the two, and as he was not much of a swimmer, and overstraining himself, went under and was drowned. The younger Gibbs was rescued by a carpenter working at the artesian well, and the Rouse boy succeeded in saving himself. Gibbs remained in the water fifteen minutes, when he was found and was brought out and laid on the grass. Dr. Crapo was called and pronounced the boy dead. Gibbs was eleven years of age and the son of the barber of that name. The family resides on south First street*
