HUGHEs's goods are giving great satisfac-
faction, particularly those superior kid boots
that can only be found at his house. Those
magnificent Ribbons in his show case prove
very attractive to the ladies, who also find
his nice dress goods the very article they
wanted for Fall wear. His very moderate
prices give general satisfaction. His stock
of nice woolen and cotton hosiery is very
good, to which be calls the attention of all
those who want a good article. He has a
superior stock of cloths, tweeds, cassimeres,
casinets, and jeans, which he will sell very
low to reduce his stock

The Methodist Conference.

In this issue we commence the publica-
ton of the proceedings of the Indiana Con-
ference. This body represents the South
western part of the State. The membership
of the Methodist Church within it's bounds
is near thirty thousand. The numbers at
tendant in their churches of course is
much greater. The proceedings of a body
representing SO large and respectable por-
ton of the community can but be looked
to with interest.
Monday and Tuesday of the present week
were spent chiefly in assigning the delegates
their temporary homes, mutual congratula-
tions, and examinations of the younger min
listers in their prescribed studies. On Mon
day evening an able sermon was preached
by Rev. William S. Garter of Putnamville-
The opening sermon-which was one of
great power and eloquence-was preached
by Rev. VIM. G. Smith of Indianapolis, on
Tuesday evening. His discourse was ad-
dressed to ministers, and was founded on
Ps. CxxvI, 9th y: " He that goeth forth and
weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubt
less come again with rejoicing, bringing his
sheaves with him"
The Methodist Church at Sullivan, in
which the Conference holds its session, is
large and highly creditable to the taste and
liberality of the citizens of that prosperous
town. The people seem to feel much inter
est in the proceedings. We nope the session
may be pleasant one, fraught with good to
ton

BEF This is Fair week, and many per-
sons will be in town to see the sights and
supply themselves with fancy and useful ar
ticles of merchandise. Staid old house-keep-
ers will want Clocks, for instance. Men
and women will wantW Watches-the former,
hunting cased or some other substantial
style the latter lepine, detached lever, or
such description, the in asmall and neat form.
Young men looking around for sweethearts
will need breast pins, finger rings, fancy
watch chains, ETC., and others who have
everything ready for the wedding ring,
must have that Indispensable article. Young
ladies will find it necessary to have finger
and ear rings, breast pins. and other arti-
cles of jewelry to set off their charms to
the best advantage. Sundry persons will
need repairing done to Watches and Jewel
ry, and they will want it done Just right.
Now the question is, Where shall all
these desires be gratifed; to what gorgeous
bazaar of glistening gold, shining silver,
and sparkling jewels, shall the seekers after
these articles of use and ornament go to
supply themselves We answer, to P. L..
GEIssLER's, No 81 Main street, next door to
Nelson's Auction Room. There shall the
cultivated taste, longing for aesthetic pabu-
lum, 60 and find satisfaction for its cravings.

THE "BLAcK GUARDS OUT AGAIN.-This
famous gang were again out last night
with torch-lights and the dirty Transparent
cies which disgraced the party so a few
weeks ago. The Weekly Enquirer stated
yesterday morning that there would be
1000 out.
We give the result of three actual counts :
One, by Douglas man, made it 243 an
other by a Wide Awake, 242; another,
232 without officers. These counts embrac-
ed musicians and all. So this is the result
of a couple of weeks drumming up. 1t
was an affair big in anticipation and little
in accomplishment.
A speech was delivered, we are told, at
Mozart Hall, by that arch-trimmer and dodg-
er, John G. Davis, of Parke county. No
man has a worse political record, and no
one deals in viler ISLANDERS against his polit-
ical opponents.

THE AMATEUR CoNCERT.-Having en-
joyed the pleasure of listening to the re-
hearsal last evening by the Choir of the
Vine street Presbyterian Church, We feel
that we can safely promise our citizens
rich treat tonight at the Concert if they
choose to avail themselves of it, The Sc
lection of music is superb, and the execu-
ton, although by amateurs, corresponds
with the selection. We trust those who
have taken this matter in charge will be
cheered with fuIi house, and that the
church, for which they labor, will reap
substantial benefit from the undertaking.
1t is not often that our people have the
opportunity of listening to a concert of good
amateur musicians, and it will be fair test
of the musical taste of our citizens, to OBJ
serve the extent to which they turn out to-
night.
The gentlemen and ladies who compose
the choir, have given much of their time
and attention to the improvement of them
selves in the divine art " and for the eleva-
tion of musical taste amongst US. They
deserve to be encouraged.
We say to all lovers of music, go to the
Homo Concert to night. For those who are
not lovers of music we quote LorenEo's ad-
dress to Jessica, in the " Merchant of Ven
ice"
" There's nOHght so stockish, hard, and full of
rage,
But music for the time doth change his nature
The that hath 10 music in himself,
Norris net moved with concord Of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, strangems, and spells
The motions of his spirit dull night,
And his affections dark Erebus
Let such be trusted.''

Extraordinary Attractions
Al the EnIT- En.dRV.

The Programme of the Fair to-day
Thursday is very attractive, and such as to
collect a huge crowd from the City, country,
and abroad There will be some very fast
stock from abroad, and trotting under saddle
and in harness The Grand Tournament, in
emulation of the deeds of ancient chivalry
will be enacted, in which brave knights,
sans puer ct sans reprOche, will contend gal
lantly for handsome diamond ring with
which to encircle the finger of some ladye
fair" The deeds enacted ON " the field of the
golden cloth will be eclipsed by the valor
and gallantry of Hoosier Bayards, Saladins,
and Richards Cour de Lion. Then there is
the competition for the Citizens, Premi-
ums for Buggy and Draft Horses. Then
the solid and the sentimental exercises of
the day will be closed by the extravaganza
of the Scape Grace Fantasies on foot
furry "beyond compare" The transition
from the sublime to the ridiculous will be
provocative of cachinnation and promotive
of digestion
Go, all to the Fair see the sights and
hear the sounds encourage the Associa-
ton in its laudable work rejuvenate your
selves with exercise and amusement; and
elevate yourselves by means of knowledge,
substantial and tasteful.

CHICAGO, Sept. 26th, M.-There is every
reason to believe that on the night of the
disaster to the Lady Elgap, another vessel
was lost with all on board. The schooner
St. Mary left here that day, bound for Ce-

since. She had on board some lady passen-
