W. Wortman was a passenger by last night's train from Indianapolis, and left by the Taras-on for his home at Rockport. The Hebrew Picnic The Arte sian Spring Park was the scene of mosttlolightful holiday, CDjoyed by our Hebrew fellow-citizens yesterday. At an early hour tho street crs commenced carrying full loads of men, won.v. children, and long before no' beautiful grounds were full of nnppy humanity.

Large, well-fined accompanied the happy iiirong, and were carefully stored away till ucon, when the delicious stores were brought forth and enjoyed with that keen relish that a romp in the green woods always inspires. Strolling along the winding valks, flying swiftly around on the "Flying Dutchman," admiring the beautiful fountains, rolling ten-pins, playing billiards, and romping on the clean soft grass constituted the programme, and young eyes sparkled as they Dever sparkled before, and many a youDg heart beat with a bounding joy, which it seldom, if ever before, had known. The joy of the children was largely participated in by the parents and friends present, and even the rain that prevailed during the altcrnoon, for a time, scarcely inter rupted the enjoyment. All day long the cars went out crowded, and net till lato did the festive and happy scene close. We know of no place where a party cf this kind can so well enjoy themselves as in the Artesan Springs Park.

Serious Affray. A serious altercation took place yesterday afteraoon, about half-past two o'clock, at a sa-loou on First street, between George Meyer, nieht-watchman at Forth Bowles' stable, and oe App, in wMch (he latter itiflitU'J a severe and painful wound, three inches long, on the right side of Meyer's face. The structures were cut to the bone, and the eye swollen and closed. It is supposed that the cut was caused by his fist, although an eye witness thought that it was made by a kick in the face. Dr.

Magenins dressed the wound, after which the combatants were taken before the Recorder. App's trial was put off until to-day. While at the Recorder's office Meyer behaved himself badly, and tho Recorder directed the marshal to take him to the loek-itp for contempt of court. Meyer give boad, however, and was released until this morning. From all the information wo could get it seems that App was not much to blame for striking Meyer, but the fucts in the case will bo developed at the trial this morning.

The Fare to California. We have been frequently asked what is tho fare to California by the Pacific Railroad. A contemporary lurnishes us the desired information. The fare from Cincinnati to Sun Francisco is $258 70 in currency, which is cer tainly an outrageous price, and people who contemplate the trip would do well to wait awhile. Negotiations are already on foot that will doubtless re sult in a speedy reduction of tho fare.

The Pacilio Mail steamers have al ready lowered their terms, while negotiations are going on between tho Cen tral and Uuiou Pacific roads by which fares will probably be fixed to $100 in currency from Ooaxha to San Fran cisco. Tho distance between those points is about 1,950 miles, and at the amended rate passengers would pay over five 'cents a mile, which is double the average charged for through tick ets on Eastern roads. Resisted an Officer. An old covey by the of Gus. Francis was drunk and disorderly on the levee yesterday, and was also guilty of pub lic indecency.

Officer Jackson at tempted to arrest him, but Francis resisted, and a scuffle ensued. The officer gave his unruly antagonist a whack over the head, which drew the "claret," and brought the old ebap to taw." lie was taken to the lockup, and will have an opportunity to explain himself this morning. Recorder's Court. Only one case was disposed of yesterday by the Re corder, giving unmistakable evidence that the warm weather has seriously affected business. Toe name of the only sinner on the mourners' bench was Mathias Kopp, who had been enjoying hiiuselt on a pleasant drunk.

lie was called on for $5 40, and promptly responded with the money. A butcher was arrested for selling tainted meat, but as ho was the wrong man, he was discharged. Sight Restored. Mr. Frederick Frick, who was blown up while blasting rock in the bottom of a well in Robinson Township, Posey County, on the 14th of September, 1SC7, and had his leg broken and both eyes destroyed, has had an operation performed by Dr.

Mageniss, on the left eye, and sufficient sight restored to enable him to walk about. Oa yesterday he walked from Rahm's grocery, on Fulton Avenue, to Dr. Ma-geniss's office, without assistance. This is a remarkable case, and we rejoice that Mr. Frick has his sight restored again.

Strawberry Festival The ladies of the First Baptist Church wil hold a Strawberry Festival on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, June" 8th and 9th, tho proceeds of which will be used in finishing their new church building, on which the work will be commenced in a few days. The place of holding the festival will be duly announced. The object of the festival is a worthy one, and we feel satisfied that our citizens wili eagerly embrace so pleasant an opportunity to aid in a good cause. Collision. Mr.

J. W. Nexsen, while driving in his buggy, yesterday about noon, when near the corner of Second and Walnut streets, jjpllided witha gentleman on horseback. Mr. Nexsen had one wheel of his buggy-broke, but the horse that run against him got off without any injury.

Gooding, Marshal. The Evansville Illinois Railroad An Important Movement. The peop'e of Evansville, we are glad to see, are wakicg up to the importance of opening up railroad communication with Illinois. The fact has become palpable to our business men and capitalists that if we would retain the trade that we have heretoforo commanded, and would se cure the additional trade that legitimately belongs to us, we must have railroad communications with Southern and Southern Central Illinois. The progress now being made in the construction of the Viccecnes A Cairo Railroad admonishes our citizens that the time for action has come.

Subscription papers were cpened on and $27,000 have already been subscribed, and it is expected that by to night $50,000 the sum necessary to form a company will be subscribed, when the company will be at once organized. The deign ii to build a railroad from this city to some point in Illinois, in the direction of Grayville or Carmi, not only to tap the Viucennes Cairo road, but to connect and form a part of one of the roads extending through Southern Illinois in the direction of St. Louis or Chicago. This. is an enterprise of vital necessity to the commercial prospects of our city, transcending in importance all other Tailroad now projected.

a railroad built from this city into Illinois, connecting with the railroad system of that State, and with the E. II. N. R. R.

completed, the straight-line railroad will be built without costing the people of Evansville a single dollar. Every business man in the city who desires to increase their trade and to secure the prosperity of our city, should promptly respond to the call that will be made upon them to take part in this grand enterprise. Common Pleas Court. The ease of Emily D. Catlett vs.

Stroud and Welborn, was concluded yesterday. The jury gave a verdict awarding the plaintiff $200. A motion was made for a new trial. The next case was Chris. Kratz vs.

Alex. Simpson, and was tried before the Judge without a jury. The case had been appealed from a Justice's Court, and was a suit for money. The Judge allowed the plaintiff $37 50. which was less than the judgment given by the Justice of the Peace.

Mary F. Gandolfo was granted a divorce from Peter Gandolio, and Catharine R. Redmond was granted a divorce from Erastu3 Redmond. The causes for which the divorces were granted were various, but abandonment was the principal one. Decoration of Soldiers' Graves.

The Committee of arrangements de sire to make the following statement for the information of the public: All persons going in the procession are requested to take flowers out with them from the city, for the decoration. The ladies and others procuring flowers for the occasion, to supply those who have none, are requested to bring or send their flowers to the Court House, where a Committee will be ready to receive them at 9 o'clock Saturday morning. Persons wishing flowers to take with them in the procession, can get them by calling at, the Court House from 10 o'clock A.M. till 1 o'clock P.M. Saturday.

By order of the Executive Committee. D.D. Doughty, Chairman. BUSINESS DUSIXfiTHE PAST IEAV. Short r5ummaxy.

We give below nearly a completa list of-" the amount of goods sold in this city by dealers who sell over worth per year. Manufacturers have to make reports for all sales over Our list is not full, but we give the business of the leading firms iu the great staples. There are a large number of returns of sales by manufacturers, but we did not have the time to prepare it for to-day's issue. It is a long and tedious job. The summary which we give will enable our readers to form an appros-iinate idea of tho business done in this city.

A very largo number of dealers, who sell less than $50,000, ni3ke no reports, but they do a good business nevertheless. For instance, we have three queensware houses in our city, but only one reports sales of $50,000. We have, also, four or five hat stores, but only one makes reports, and so on clear through the list. We will, in tomorrow's issue give the sales of furniture and a few other items that wc have omitted. The following figures have been carefully prepared, and were taken from the book of the Collector.

Under the head of "groceiies and liquors," we include the sales of liquors by the grocery houses selling the same, and the exclusive liquor siles are give under a eeperate head. DRY GOODS. Mackey. Nlsbet A A Urinkiueyer. Miller.

We privilege of enjoying a very pleasant entertainment last night, at Music Hall, over Warren Conyngton's music store and piano emporium. It was the occasion of the exhibition of the select music classes instructed by Anna 3Ioore, comprising some eigtecn young misses, ranging from eight to fifteen years.

Although the an lience was entirely select, including the parents of the pupils and their friends, the large hall was well filled. The programme comprised pome eighteen pieces, vocal and instrumental, all of which were very creditably executed, exhibiting a degree of progress and i-kill that would scarcely be expected in persons so yourg, and re fleeting much credit upon their instructress. Of course, we could not particularize where there were so many participating. The occasion was one of extreme gratification to the parents and friends of the pupils. Ah, Gentle Boy," by Miss Ogden, and Old Hundred on the piano by Mis Moore, were admirably executed, and drew forth warm applause and showers of bouquets.

Notwithstanding the room was oppressively hot, no one. could leave till the performance was over, which fact of itself was the very highest compliment that could have been rendered. Miss Moore has a right to be proud of her classes, and they of their teacher. Miss Ogden, one of our most accomplished vocalists, rendered valuable assistance. Disappointed.

A special train was run from Haubstadt to Patoka to convey excursionists to the Sunday School Convention and Basket Picnic at Patoka. But the excursionists were seriously disappointed, as it rained hard all day up there, and a heavy hail-storm also prevailed. It was wet, muddy, and disagreeable, and the children did not even get a chance to eat their picnic dinner. We learned the above facts from Conductor Lon. Bush, who had charge of the excursion train.

Mayor's Proclamation. We call attention to the proclamation of Mayor Walker, in regard to the merchants suspending business on Saturday afternoon, on the occasion of the decoration ceremonies. The proclamation will be found under the head of new advertisementa. Recovering. M.

J. Carroll, who was so badly injured by the fall on Wednesday, is slowly improving. A Great RaI.v and Thunder Storm. One of the heaviest rains w3 ever witnessed fell last night about ten o'clock. Dark angry clouds had been gathering all evening, the dense black volumes of cloud being lit up every now and then with lurid lightning.

The storm seemed to be gathering from every point of the compass. The night was very calm, scarcely a breath of air relieving the oppressive heat. About ten o'clock the massed clouds opened a terrific deluge, the lain pouring down in perfect sheets of water, and a heavy gale springing up, drove the rain with great violence against the windows to the south and west, while the lightning became almost continuous. The storm maintained its greatest fury scarcely twenty mioutes, but during that time it appeared as if the very windows of heaven were opened. After the heavy rain, the atmosphere became quite pleasant, but a gentle rain continued until midnight.

Burglary. From a gentleman who arrived in this city by last night's train, we learn that some bold, bad burglar went through the Palmer House, at Indianapolis, on Wednesday night, "lilting" a considerable amount of "swag." Our old friend, Rev. John Lcaeh, a distinguished Methodist preacher. Odd Fellow and Mason, fell for $140 a larger sum than a Methodist preacher ought ever to be in possession of; another man for $7, and still another for afiucgold watch. Not Robert A.

Hill. The father of Robert A. Hill, the distinguished young lawyer of this city, lives iu New Albany, and seeing an announcement of the Hill-Burkhardt tragedy in the Journal of Monday, a misap prehenon occurred in New Albany in regard to the identity of the Hill concerned in the affiir. The Liilger very properly decides that it was not Robert A. Hill.

No one in this vicinity ever connect our talented young friend wish such au affair. A Diabolical Outrage A young man, a resident of Pike County, committed a rape upon a young girl, near Petersburg, on Tuesday. The relatives of the girl pursued him, overtaking him in Vineennes Tuesday night abeut midnight. Before capturing him, they were, obliged to shoot him through the body, lie was taken back to Petersburg fur trial. A Proper Appointment.
