A Good Move The ladies of Vin
cennes propose giving the soldiers of
Camp Knox a dinner on Christmas day. :
BA correspondent of the Vincen
nes Sun, says the Old Fourteenth Indi
ana is now in comfortable wiuter quar-.
ters, with, plenty of rations, including
onions and potatoes. The boys are ma
king themselves comfortable, and whit
ing away the time by paying dominoes
and eating oysters.
Major-General French, their old divis
ion commander, sometime ago ordered
a new set of breech-loading rilles for the
regiment. The guns have arrived at
Washington, and will soon be in the
hands of the boys, who know how to use
a rifle in the manner best calculated to
rid the country of rebels.
A Huge Porker. There is now on
exhioition'at John Gavisk's Pork House a
hog that weighs 681 pounds and measures
7 feet from the point of the shoulder to the
root of the tail.
It was raised by- Sims L. Holcomb of
Johnson township, Gibsen county, and is
said to be the largest pig in this market
this season.
Frightfdx Accidest. As the mail
train was passing down last evening, at
the crossing of the road about 2J miles
this side of Vincennes, a man named
Mart Pea, with his wife and bis wife's
mother, attempted to cross the road in a
wagon: and th train, which was running
at a high rate of speed, struck the horses
about the shoulders, mashing them to
pieces, and the wagon was dashed by the
concussion against the train and knocked
into kindling wood, not a spoke, we are
told, being left in any wheel. The three
persons were hurled from the wagon with
great force, and the man and his wife
terriblv if not fatally iniured, while.
strange to say, the old lady escaped
comparatively uninjured.
No blame can be attached to the engi
neer, as the train was iu plain view of
the road, for some distance, coming at a
high rate of speed. The railroad crosses
the ccdnty road diagonally, and the
wagon, as we understand, was going
nearly the same direction as the train.
The man remained senseless until the
train left, but his wife, who was terribly
cut on the head and face, was sensible,
and some hopes were entertained of her
recovery.
Pea and wife were young persons, and
had not long been married.
We are indebted to Mr. J. W. Henson,
mail agent, for the details of the above
terrible accident.
Since writing the above, a dispatch
from the railroad agent at Vincennes,
says the doctors think that the woman
may recover, but the man cannot possi-

19" The Fair last night was quite
largely attended, and was a very pleas
ant affair.
The room, however, would have held
a great many more quite comfortably.
Each department was well patronized
and at the close a'large number of arti
cles' were sold at auction, realizing fair
price, ..
We hope and beiieve the Fair will
prove a success pecuniarily, as it was in
all other respects.
Christmas Dixsers. From the pre
parations making by our provision hous
es, we are sure no one need to go with
out a good Christmas dinner.
Poultry and game of all kinds are dis
played in great abundance. Caldwell,
Elliott, Frank Felker and others, are get
ting on vast supplies. It makes an
epicure's mouth-water to pass one of
those houses.
A Liberal Offer. We notico by the
Terre Haute papers that Capt W. Shew
maker of the steamer D. B. Campbell,
has offered to pay $100 each to three
young married men who will enlist in
Harrison township, Vigo county, for
three years or during the war.
This is generous and praiseworthy.
Wh of our moneyed men will mrke
the same liberal offer for recruits in Pig
eon township.
It is a matter of speculation, how
many turkeys, geese and other fowls will
be consumed to-morrow, and it is also a
matter of speculation whether there will
he enough to supply the demand. Enough
is known, however, to warrant us in
saying that Elliott, at his Family Gro-
cerv, has received, and will continue to

Safety of American Vessels.
Nbw Yobk, Dec. 22. The Govern
merit has decided that the safety of
American vessels leaving this port rt
quirea that no persons shall be allowed
to leave this port as passengers or other-
wise, on any American vessel, without
first receiving a passport from the Mar
shal of this District. It is understood
that a gunboat has already been station
ed at Sandy Hook by Admiral Paulding
to intercept every vessel leaving this
port by that ontfet, and another vessel at
Throgg's Neck to examine vessels leav
ing by the Soand, with instructions to
detain such as are without passes. Auy
one can obtain the passport who can
have his loyalty properly vouched for.
The adoption of these stringent meas
ures will probably prevent a repetition of
the Chesapeake affair.
From .Meade's Array No Retrograde
Movement
Washington, Dec. 22. Information
received to-night from the Army of the
Potomac says there are no indications of
a retrograde movement towards Wash

lieved the enemy in his present condition
is able to give us much annoyance.
The probable nnmber of re-enlistments
into the veteran corps from the Army of
the Potomac ia estimated at 10,000.

Washington, Dec. 23 The report
that Generals Schenck and Garfield will

Senator Wilson expresses the belief
that the present Congress will not repeal

The draft, it is said to-day, will take

which he will dispose of at greatly reduced
prices ; bis roods being all of the rer, latest im
prorements In manufacture, consisting of a rer,
large rariety of Spectacles from the most common
to the Tery best, Tis : The finest qnallty of Gold
Spectacles, these Glasses being constructed on ths
most accurate adaptation of tbe Conrex Concaro
Periscopic principles. Also, Silrer of three dif
ferent grades of Glasses, No. 1 being on the same
principle as the Gold Spectacles. No. 2 is a Peri
focal Lense; No. S being a fine Achromatic Lense,
mirror shape.
In addition to the shore I hare a fins assort,
msnt of Steel, of the Tery best quality of Lenses,
the frames being gavorsd Into the Glasses. Ths
frames ars so fine as to be scarcely visible. No. 2
of steel Is Perifocal No. S tbe globules of a
smoked Lense, adapted for weak sight where
strong light, snow or wind sileets the Tision.
These Spectacles ars a perfect prersntatlTs by nse
ing thsra constantly, causing ths eye to gain its
healthy power and retain It to old age.
Haring had rery considerable experience also in
cateract eyes, In adapting glasses to such Tision,
would impress on ths minds of all persons aeed
lngglassssof any description, to apply for such
only to a regular Optician, making that his sole
study and business for years, he alone being able
to know from the peculiar anatomy of ths eye the
naturs of thsdefrct, whether arising from weak
ness of sight, flattening of the pnpll, or other
misfortune occurring to the Tision. The eye be
Ing the most delicate organ, and of the most Tital
Importance to ths happiness and prosperity of
man, should nerer be tampered with, either by
the indlridnal orby those who, for mere profit,
take upon themselves ths selling of Optical In
struments, and who know nothing of the anatomy
of the eye, or hew to discover the proper glasses fct
snit ths peculiarity of ths different sights of those
needing spectacles. Thousands hare lost their
Tision entirely from not applying to those naly
3 ualiflnd to know the different defects in each in
iTldual'a sight, and how to remedy It by wearing
tbe proper kind of spectacles. I. Rittenberg,
haring had ore r twenty-fire years experience as a
regular practical optician, can assure those giriug
him their patronage that by applying to him they
can get the rery right kind of glasses adapted to
their case, and in almost eTery one secure good
eye sight to old age. Netr sighted persons can
also obtain of him the Istest Improvement in
spectacles suited to them, being a new invention.
1 hare also the most recently new Field Glasses,
with Astronilcal eye pieces, being rery snporior
to the old opera glaas arrangement. All kinds ot
Optical Instruments repaired at the shortest no
