The grand jury will probably worry the bankers to some extent. This is the big week with the Council committees. Overcoats are very comfortable thc?e nights. ? ^ ^ ? It is said the Grand Jury will present about one hundred and lifty indictments to the County Court. As this is Centennial year, the grand jary is bound to have the one hundredth indictment or "bust" in the attempt. It looks as though about one-fourth of our population viil he indicted by the grand jury. House cleaning will soon common"?, p.r.d tben look out for -'remarks" f-? m tho male portion of the community.

We aie evidently going to have a Jeigbtful time contemplating American nstitutions in this our Centennial year. Instead of jubilati n. wo had better ap>oint the Fourth of July coming as a lay of fasting nnd prayer. This would >o becoming in view of these terrible rimes against liberty and justice.

Zera.?This e\ oaing the famous magician and wonder gene-rally, Zera, will commence his short engagement at tho Opera IIou.->e in this city. Wherever he has performed tho press speak of him as the most wonderful conjurer^that has ever appeared before the public. In addition to his great pcrlornianco he will [ givo away a number of valuable prcs[ ents. We expect to sco tho Opera Houie jammed to-night. Tho New York Ilarald says: "Last night Stein way's beautiful hall was crowded to its utmost capacity by an assemblage of our most refined people, w ho had turned i ut en masse to witness the new conjurer, Z ra?new to theso shores at least, though he is well known abroad, and brings the most Haltering encomiums from the foreign press. To say that he is excellent would be slender praise; he is truly wonderful; his p ats were all new to u?, and surornded with an air of inscrutable and recondite mystery altogether beyond cur comprehension. As a pianist, Prof. Zera will rank among the best who Lave yet visited theso shores. He begins in the pearly, dew-droppv sort of tiling that Gotlscbuik delighted in, and gently, almost niarvelously, wanders into the deepest pathos, touching the keys so caressingly, so tenderly, so weepingly, that too deepest chords in the heart are moved." Warm lunch will bo served at the Atlantic .Saloon every morning. Transfers ok Bkai. Estate.?Deed made March ti. 1876, by Elizabeth Brooks to Susan C. Carpenter, Agnes S. Albright and Mary L.

Qceen City Land and Blildinc i Association calls attention to tho fol } lowing voluntary statement of gentle 3 men who have visited its lands for th purpose of a lull examination of th . same. We, the undersigned, as'an investigat ing committee in behali of those con corned, have visited the Eito of Queei . City, llowan Co., Kentucky, and exam ini.'d it. and a large portion of the land belonging to tho Association, as well a the titles to the same. Having spen ' several days in our investigations, w 1 give it as our candid statement, (whicl will be fully veritied by all who visit the place) that the titles to said lands arc per feet; that the location of Queen City i very beautiful, being situated in the val j ley ol the North Triplett, a stream o ; ; sufficient sizo to Coat rafts to Cincinnati Wo were inlormed by partiei j engaged in tho lumber trade that they had floated ratti three hundred 1'eet long and eigh' ] Jugs wide irom mat point to Cincinnati 1 The State road runs some three or foui miles through the lands of the Assoeia ti*n, and aim through the site of Queer !

The found Gap R. 1%. will pasi through the City limits; one routo ol the Lexington and Sandy K. R. is surveyed through the City 6ite, and anothei survey is some two miles distatt, hut from "ur observation we are convinced that the nearest and most feasible route is via Queen City. The Company has commenced, and are , now improving the location of Queen City, ami we are fully satisfied that they v. ill continue their efforts with untiring | energy until they make Queen City a .-uccc.-s. They solicit parties at any time that suits there interest and convenience, or to satisfy their curiosity, to visit the ' place and investigate for themselves. Rut we would suggest, for the benefit of visiting and investigating parties, that it would be better to delay their visits for a short time, as we are assured the Company will soon have hotel accommodations for all who may come. The building stone is as fine as any we have ever seen, Siateof a fine quality and of any desirable size can be obtained near the City limits. Iron ore is ai-o abundant; and coal of a superior quality in large quantities can bo bad on the line of the found Gap R. R, some eight miles from the seat of the proposed City. There arepndications of (- tl and iror. ore in the immediate vicinity of the City, but neither has been developed. We were shown samples of Lythograph Stone, which were said to ' have been taken tram a quarry on the i.ne l trie ranroisd, but <lia not visit the ' quarry ourselves; the stone is the finest in the world.
