TIN NESTING SATURDAY NIaHT AND
THk FoUerH OF JULY.-The meeting
called 10 front Of the Evansville (old
State) Bank building, it was understood,
was to be convened by the sounds Of
sweet music by the Crescent City Band,
bur FOR some reason the Band failed to
be on hand, and The meeting failed to
come %, IT J&
There were large numbers Of citizens
In the vicinity until 8 late hour, and q
large meeting could readily have been
convened had little energy been used,
and the absence Of the band, no doubt
for good reasons, was no excuse for the
failure Of the meeting
We regret TO see such apathy mani
tested on the subject of the coming ceIe-
bratiou. We have very properly deter.
mined to have grand celebration of the
4th OF July, one worthy Of the day and
the honor Of the city.
The City Council has appropriated
$1,000, and the County Commissioners
like sum TO assist in carrying out that
determination. If we take it for grant
ed that this is all that is necessary to en-
sure success we will be sadly deceived.
We must have more money, and we
must have much labor.
The Commitsess are 1T work, but the
citizens must aid and assist They must
contribute money and provisions, and
they must volunteer to assist in what.
ever is requisite to ensure a magnifi-
cent success 10 fact we want every
citizen who takes pride in the good
name and fair fame of our city, every
man who loves the glorious old Banner,
and who houors the brave men who have
imperilled their lives to advance that
banner in the face of its foes, to devote
this week to ensure the success of the
enterprise. There must be no faltering
now. Our honor, our pride, and our
selfrespect are involved Ia the issue,

AN IMPupRHr RoBBERY. 800 Yesterday

VIM. Leecb, when preparing to make his
toilet, placed his 6ne and valuable gold
watch and small cum of money in his
hat, which he set upon the counter Of
the store in which he is employed.
After washing, he assembled the stairs to
change his clothes, and while in the
midst Of this interesting employment .
brazen-faced scou ndrel, who arrived by
the Clifton on Saturday, walked into the
store. Mr.. Leech, seeing him enter,
asked him what he wanted. he replied
that he wanted to purchase some cloth
ing. Mr. l.. told him to wait moment
and he would come down, but the impu.
dent thief walked out, without waiting.
Mr. Lesch descended as soon as be was
sufficiently dressed, aud found his watch
and money missing He at once gave
chase, bat the scoundrel eluded him;
bat towards noon, description of him
having been lett at the various hotels,

House, where be asked for bed, and ct
once retired. An officer was sent for,
and the bold buccaneer was taken to

took care of the stolen property, as be
was seen in company with another ras-

PUBLIC REJOICING Our citizens went into
general rejoicing on Monday night last, over
the cheering news of the fall OF the rebel capi-
tai, and the breaking down Of the confederacy
The enthusiasm was almost without bounds. -
Many OF those whom we have considered q!
"coppered snd cop per fastened" 10 the last ex
tent, gave themselves up with neartiness anG
devotion that was quite refreshing, and LEFT the
impression, that patriotism aud love Of country
was living, vital principle that party trammels
aud party folly were not able to eradicate. All
the bells of the village, with perhaps the eScep
tion Of the Episcopal, were ruug merriy through
out the evening. "a rounds we're fred from the
baby.waker. the baud played with much credit
its most stirring nnd patriotic airs, and the citi
zens gathered at the Ashtabua House and
gave free ventto their patriotic impulses, speech
es, and congratulations. Patriotic intoxica,ioI
seemed to be general. Fun and frolic were 81
exuberant that the slothful and more sober aud
sedate, were not suffered to indulge their east
aud comfort 10 uglorious sleep. Committees
we're deputed to wait upon such, and bring
them oat-waking or sleeping. Four stslwart
sovereigus waited upon the writer, at the witch
ing hour Of midnight. rousing him from tho pro-
fonndest slumber, aud significantly limiting that
his presence was in request. 1t being apparen,
that discretion the better part of valor. we
gracefully yielding TO the necessities OF the case,
aud making hasty toilet were conducted to
the sceue Of general rejoicing, where ws were
put through, us many better man bad been
before us. Aner having the drossiness elfeclu.
ally shaken out of US by the vigorous hands that
we're extended to get grip at our dgils, we
were required to take glass OF ale, and mount
tue rostrum. A short, congratulatory speech
'uinlled the requirement aud We were allowed TO
withdraw, msking room for our redoubtable
ir'end the Doctor Though be came in with
evident reluctance. we were glad to see him, as
