THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH.--The
great Apostle of the divine goddess
Truth, 81. n" having been induced to
forego his meeting last night, will, this
evening at o'clock, from the steps of the
Capitol, roll back the veil that has so long
kept the light from mems minds, and will
illumine their understandings with the bril-
liant light of Truth. 81. N" should have
an immense meeting tonight, for in addi-
tion to demonstrating the difference be-
tween a stand point and a theory, he will
assume the entire pressure. This truly
great philosopher goes hence to visit Gen
Robert E. Lee, before whom he will show
Truth--divine, adored Truth. Success to
you, 81. N" Your course is upward and
onward. Your theories are unpopular now,
because misunderstood, but the day is com.
ing when your philosophic soul will be
delighted in the adhesion of thousands Of
disciples.

O'Clock last night officer s. Robinson, as
sisted by Mr.. Jones, arrested aman named
George Lindel, living on South Seventh
street, on charge of stealing railroad iron
from the Central Ohio railroad. At his
residence was found some four or five hun
dred pounds of rails, drawbars, chairs,
links, spikes and the like, which had been
taken from the railroad at or near New
Albany. The man was locked up in the
calaboose. The stolen iron was locked up
in the Zettler House yard for safe keeping.
Lindel will have his trial at o'clock this
afternoon. He says he bought the iron
from various parties, but tells so many
stories about it that he cannot be believed.

The JOURNAL ON RATIFIcATIoN.-The
Journal of Monday, May 25, says, in refer
ence to the Grant ratification meeting !
Although but very limited notice had
been given of the affair, an enthusiastic
crowd assembled at the Union Club Rooms
on Saturday evenings" and the whole tenor
of the article would lead the reader to sup
pose there was an immense concourse of
people in attendance, while in fact there
were but eighty eight, all told, in the hall
during the evening. Such ratification
meeting the Journal pronounces success,
while the meeting on Thursday night, at
which over 5000 persons were present, he
fippantly says was fizzle. We guess the
journal is little south-pawed in its ideas
of fizzles and success. If the Grant ratifi-
cation acas an immense success" the
meeting on Thursday night must have been
fiZzle, as they were not a bit alike.
