MADISON COUNTY.
TIE legislative correspondent Of the An
derson Democrat dealt out the truth very
parsimon'ousIy when he wrote that 'Sena-
tor Friedley unbosomed himself, in the
Senate, in regard 10 certain charges
preferred against him by the In
dianapolis Sentinel" The Sentinel had
nothing to do with the SENATOR having
barred his manly bosom. But perhaps this
is q typographical error. That noble sena-
tor arose to question of privilege concern
ing certain charges preferred by the Cincin-
natl Enquirer's correspondent,then stationed
a. this place.
NOBLE COUNTY.
The Ligonier Banner says that diaboli
cal act of incendisrisnI was perpetrated at
Indian Village. this county, early last Sum
day morning. The steam saw mill OF T.. B.
Eagles, ESQ, was set on fire and reduced
to ashes in a comparatively short time
mot, however, before Mr.. Eagles had
succeeded in removing all the saws. Luck
ily, the engine was not damaged TO such an
extent as TO render it valueless for future
service, nor did the flames spread sufti-
GENTLY to devour the large pile of logs that
had accumulated during the winter. The
fact that there had been no firing at the mill
for some time renders il certain that some
soulless miscre2nt resorted TO this devillsh
plan to avenge himself for an imaginary
grievance. One can hardly conjecture how
this could come to pass, as there are few men
in the county who have 3 smaller number of
enemies and greater circle of friends than
Leander B. Eagles.

Tuesday night in Terre Hsute, Just as
dramatic entertainment was commencing, a
white woman, the wife of prominent citi-
zen, got into a row with negro woman and
behaved ia manner so outrageous that sac
was arrested.
On Monday morning Oscar Church, who
lives between four and five miles west of
TsTre Haute, on the National road, had both

below the knee, and breaking it, and then
breaking his left leg near the ankle.

that place: "There were six steamers here
at the time, all awaiting rise, and were all
mooreG at the western side of the river.
Three Of them, the Prairie City, Phoenix and
Buskirk still remain. The others took an
involuntary trip. 1t is thought that the
worst of the ice will be out in two or three
days, and then the boats will commence
business. Ssnguine hopes ara entertained
that the bottom will be spared. The ice,
when it broke, literally carried everything
before it.
