CATCHING THIEF.-Some days
ago, young man named Andrew Ten
mis-, stole carpet sack full Of cloth
ing, from John Kite, at Owensville.
Posey County. He had been employed
to work for Kite on Saturday, and was
to begin on Monday. During Sunday,
he had leisure to eye the carpet sack.
and during the night he . lit out with
it. Kite came to the city in search of
the thief or an officer to catch him,
avowing his will .ngness to spend $40
in the enterprise. Officer Robinson
got on the track, arrested the thief at
Newburg, and returned him to this
city. recovering the stolen property.
For this trouble and services, Kite
magnanimously offered him two dol
lars, as compensation. He finally
opened his heart and gave him FIVE
dollars. The prisoner was taken back
to Posey County TO stand an examina-
ton.

SCHOOL EXAMINATIONS.

THE SECOND GIRLS INTERMEDIARY.
This School, taught by Miss CALL,
Principal, and Miss FRoLIcH, Assist
ant, occupied the whole day yester-
day. Notwithstanding the excessive
heat. there was a good attendance of
visitors, and the interest was we'll
maintained to the close. We have
not space this morning to speak in
detail of all the recitations and exer-
cises. The singing, which was inter-
spersed between every recitation,
was selected with much taste, and
added much to the life and interest of
the examination. All the classes
in both. Rays and Mental Arith-
metic did well, Notwithstanding a
few complete failures in solving
examples. The school showed
possibly greater proficiency in mathe-
matics than any other study. The ex-
aminations in geography were good,
Professor BUTTERFIELD's question
ing rarely eliciting an erroneous an
swer. The classes in grammar ac-
quilted themselves well. The ex-
animation in physiology was brief
and hurried. The classes in reading
did not gain much credit. The pu-
pills read with facility, but quite hur-
riedly and indistinctly. and without
proper expression. And this was the
great defect noticed in this school, in
distinct enunciation and hurried
manner of recitation, which materi-
ally injured the examination. The
pupils appear to have obtained a COR
rect comprehension Of their studies,
but they placed themselves at small
disadvantage yesterday on account of
these defects, which were seriously
criticised by the Superintendent,
while he awarded to the school
good standing of scholarship.
9 At the close of the examination a
number of misses read compositions.
which reflected upon them consider

by her pupils with silver goblet and
and Miss FRoLIcH with
a handsome card-case. The following

To-day, at 3 o'clock. the Evans
vile and Charlottesville r. r., will
send forward special freight train,
consisting of sixteen cars, to be sent
through to New York on express
time. The ears are all painted white.
with what is termed !" red flannel

cars. ! They belong to the Eric

Each car will contain twelve hhds. of
tobacco, or 1872 hhds. to the train. By
this line it is proposed to put tobacco
into New York in three or four days,
less time than by any other route,
and this inaugurates new era in the
transportation of freight. The train
will reach Indianapolis early Sunday
morning, and lie over till early Mon
day morning. Two or three of the
cars were built at the companys shops

degree creditable to the skill Of our

A PAINFUL AccIDENT.-Y esterday
morning Master Chester Mclean, son
of Captain VIM. Mclean, met with a
painful accident, under the following
circumstances: He had been employ
ed in the tin shop of Messrs. Thomas
Sca.,tlin & Son, and was engaged with
another boy stamping fruit-can tops,
on machine that works on the prin-
ciple ofa pile-driver. One boy raised
the weight or falling die by a rope
passed over a pulley, while Mclean
placed the fat tin plates on the sta
tionary die. While thus engaged.
the heavy die fell upon his
hand, crushing one finger and
severely bruising and decorating one
or two others. The boy managing the
weight, seeing the danger, with great
presence of mind frightened the cord
in time to prevent the dies meeting
close, otherwise the hand would have
been utterly ruined.

A WORD OF WARNING.-We are
told by the policet that the city is, at this
time, infested with an unusual num-
Der of thieves. burglars and confidence
men. Most of these are spotted, and
so closely watched, that they have as
yet done but little. Some of their
emissaries, however, are visiting pri-
vate residences, under the guise of
peddlers of needles, pins and other
articles which the ladies can buy just
as cheaply as at the stores. They
generally call at an hour when they
expect to find no men at home, and
when they do accidentally find the
the man of the house in. they beat a
hasty retreat The object is, of course,
to inspect the premises for the benefit
of their confederates. Our citizens
should pay especial attention to the
fastenings oftheir doors and windows,
and should put fresh loads into, and
fresh caps upon their revolvers. The
police are watching them, but the
scoundrels are wary and cautious.
