IIA-TJTE, IWTI.

Wednesday Horning, Oct. 20, 1869.

WiTHOtJT facts or figures to sustain its rci^l^^iertions, the Journal makes .wild and vague charges against the administration of our county affairs by the -"old (Republican) Board of Commipsion$m. We have proved by figures, taken 'froln the books of the Auditor of State, V., -that, throughout the ninety-two counties of Indiana, the rate of taxation is in•r

variably .higher where Democrats do the financiering than where it is controlled by "J Republicans. We have also shown that a ^'Republican State Administration has steadily dnd rapidly decreased the mountain of debt that Democratic niismanageff

men

piled up, so that the time is near at

'-'•hand—unless Democracy should inter-

Vene—when

the State will not owe a dol-

lar. It is also true that had not the last Legislature made a great reduction in the

levy for State purposes, the rate of taxation in this county for 1869 would be almost unendurable. It is apparent to every man of average intelligence that, in Indiana, at least, Republican financiering, not only in State but in county affans, will bear the strictest scrutiny, and contrasts most favorably with the utter r» recklessness with which Democratic officials have squandered the people's monev. In the election of 1868 it was the good financial record of the Kepublican party that saved it from defeat. That record is still a "strong card," a tower of strength to the party. The people forgive almost anything else more readily than the cruel waste of their substance by disiv honest or incompetent officers. The voters of this State know who brought on ••-4 them tMe burdens of National and State *. "taxation, and they are not to be deceived $- by the false and hypocritical pretence of "Democratic economy." It would be t. no more preposterous to talk of "a pious "V.- devil," or a "red-hot iceberg," than to

J, tell any well-informed voter that we need "an old-fashioned, economical, Democratic f*" administration!" Bah 1

AN Iwoa eorrespondent of the Chicago Tribune says the Republicans of that State art greatly dissatisfied with the appointment of GEN. BELKNAP AS Secretary of ||FWar. They insist that "he has always i|| been, and is now, a Conservative, and two years ago stumped the First District Istuww against JIM WILSON, for Cong ess. Last year he did nothing at all in the canvass, $ and this year did the same as last year.

Good ^Republicans do not claim the ap- & '_r^ pointment of a Conservative to be any compliment to a State that gave 46,000

Republican majority, and think it very poor enc6uragement for earnest workers to have such men as BELKNAP and SILE Ht'DSON come in after the fight is over to

reap the Harvest of honors and sit

S-

its large number of Radical

5* Republicans competent to fill, and quali/fied to honor any place in the Cabinet. y^hv had aright to expect a better recognition from GRANT than it has received in the appointment of BELKNAP." ."jwrt-,': ... '3"^', IT IS reported that the clerical party, [, in Japan, is fully determined to expel all foreigners from the country, and has de--v cided upon strong measures to accomplish this end. These measures have the sup'V port of some of the ablest and most influ--ential of the Japanese journals. Petitions ^'^numerously signed have been presented to tlie government urging the expulsion

tjie foreigners. One of these docu-

-V ments tspeaks of them as "worms in the "3 lion's body," and it lays upon the Christian religion many of the troubles that 7JL afilict the country. It is also rumored that the government has entertained the subject of driving out all aliens, and is busy devising the best and speediest frfC means to accomplisli such a result.

THE Chronicle mentions the fact •tliat" .' the Ohio Temperance Tiekv, ivas duly advertised in twoOiheinnati morning papers at Democratic expense, and received just two votes in the entire county of Hamil--fon. It is worth considering whether such a demonstration of weaknesss has been so advantageous to the cause as to encourage repetition in Ohio or imitation in Indiana or elsewhere. Had it even been •effective enough to give the Stale to PEN

DLETON, would it probably have materially diminished the consumption of intoxicating liquors, or afforded any satisfaction to honest temperance men? We commend the question to the debating -societies for the coming season.

A WASHINGTON correspondent of the New York Herald throws additional light on the personal history of General BELKNAP, the new Secretary of WarHe was the gentleman held in reserve by A-the President, we are told, for Commis--T'i \sioner of Internal Revenue, in the event of Mr. DELANo'sresignaiion. And when I was it that Mr.

THE

DELANO contemplated

resigning? There has been no previous intimation that he ever harbored such a purpose, or even thought of declining the ^appointment.

TACT that four English magazines

are now edited by ladies, while some of the best known writers of fiction are of the gentler sex, is mentioned a* affording strong evidence that ladies are now getting their fair share of literary work. It is stated that Sir CHARLES LYKLL and a prominent member of Parliament each employs a lady in the capacity of private secretary.

THE moral effect of the October elections will doubtless be seen in the Empire State on the second proximo. Our friends there ought to be able to regain control of the State government, and we have strong hopes of their success in the attempt to do so.

A Brave Woman.

During the return trip of Secretary Seward and party from Los Angeles, they stopped for the night at a small place, the name' of which will hardly be found on the map, and found the citizens in a high state of excitement on account of the doings of a bold villain who had deliberately stopped one of their number and robbed him of his valuables in broad day light. As none of the other inhabitants were sheriffs or policemen, or in any way armed with the power of the law:, they had evidently concluded not to risk their lives in an attempt to make an a: .est and at the time of the arrival of the Seward party were apparently waiting to see what would be the next move of the dreaded villain.

During the night, the house occupied by Mr. Seward and party was entered, the thief first seeking the apartment of tie venerable statesman himself, and managed to secure there valuable plunder, amounting to one pair of old and badly worn pantaloons. \Vith this valuable trophy in his possession, he passed into the room occ ipiedby Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Sewanl, in search of jewelry.— Mrs. Seward, being awakened by the noise, espied the intruder, and at once attracted nis attention, by saying, "Leave here! get out! you've no business hete!" The rascal left incontinently, and it was fortunate for him that he did so, as the fearlete lady, who fa said to be a good phot, would doubtless in a few moments have given her proof of her skill. Thus a lady, unaided, drove from a house a villain whom several men did not dare to arrest. .» **•».

JE fTfFf'J-i ff "V Raising Russian War Vessels at Sebastopol. From the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser.]

Our countryman, Colonel J. E. Gowen, has been wonderfully successful in his operations on the sunken war vessels, in the harbor of Sebastopol. It will be remembered that these ships were sunk by the Russian Government to prevent capture or being set on fire by the allies during the Crimean war. The number thus sunk was seventy-eight, of which the Colonel has raised twenty-seven in a serviceable condition. Some of these were largejline-of-battle ships, and very heavy, the Vladimir weighing 5,000 tons. Most of the wooden vessels were so damaged by the boring of the little teredo as to be worthless, but all the iron craft were in complete preservation, but one of them, the Elbooroos, is now the yacht of the Empress of Russia.

On first attempting to raise these vessels Colonel Gowen met with failures that would have disheartened less persevering men. The ordinary India rubber caissons and pontoons used for such purposes proved inadequate to lift such immense weights, and the Colonel then built caissons of his own. These caissons had six girder frames running fore and aft to give strength, and at the bows were heavy slinging chains running over wheels to lift the submerged vessels. They were divided into compartments, and when the lifting commenced the after ones admitted water to counterbalance the depression forward, and the caisson was sunk to nearly the level of the water then, by means of an air pump, the compartments were freed of water, and, as the caissons rose, the ships lifted with them. When it is stated that the ships were sunk in 60 feet of water, and imbedded in from 19 to 23 feet of mud, some idea may be formed of the magnitude of the undertaking, which, through the energy of Colonel Gowen, resulted in freeing the harbor and roadstead of Sabastopol from such serious obstructions to navigation.

MY SAKLIN6.

My darling is the sweetest maid That ever lived on marmalade Or wanted wings to make her The angel that she ought to be But then—unluckily for me, I'm five and forty, and you see,

She's only twfclve—deuce take her!

Her hair is gold in wavy curls, lier eyes are stars, her teeth are pearls, Her boots are bronze and lace up.

Her cheek is bloomy like a plum, Her breath is sweet as mnjorum But poetry is weak to sum

Her figure and her face up.

Alas, tho truth I must aver— My nephew Dick's in love with her, AVhile prudence says I should prefer

Her aunt, who's plain and heavy, Oh, would—but why ask fate to grant A boon which I'm aware it can't! Oh, would that she had been her aunt,

Or I had been my nevy.

A NOBLE HOD CARRIER.

Romantic Adventures of an Austrian Baron.

From the Qalena (111.) Press.]

On Thursday afternoon last Col. Carr. the Postmaster, received a heavy sealed document at his office, postmarked "Vienna," and directed to "Herr Carl Yon Vechter, Galesburg, Knox county, State of Illinois, United States of North America." Knowing that the massive letter must be of importance from its crested seals and general official appearance, he uispatclied Mr. Wm. Post, chief clerk of the office, in search of the Herr Von Vechter. Mr. Post made diligent inquiry of several, but could not find any trace of the individual wanted until he met with Mr. John Loos, the well-known sa-loon-keeper on the east side of the square. Mr. Loos knew a Charley Vechter he was working on the new hotel building, and both walked over there, where they found Vechter about to ascend the ladder with a hod on his shoulder. When Mr. Post handed him the letter and he read it, the delight of the hodman knew no bounds. He threw his hod full of bricks away, and embraced Mr. Loos, calling him his dearest friend. The letter contained a draft for $7,000 on the First National Bank of Chicago, and he insisted on paying Mr. Post $500 for being the bearer of such joyful tidings as the document contained, which, of covrstj T\fr. Post refused.

This mor)' :rg Herr Von Vechter, array"3 hi a suit of fashionable clothing, and having passed through the hands of the barber, called at our office in company with Capt. Henry Heinrich, an attache of the Free Press establishment. No one could recognize in the noble looking personage before us the ex-hod carrier. His manly and commanding appearance attracted general attention and remark, and the ease and sauvity of his manners were truly remarkable. He clearly and succinctly related to us the eventful chain of incidents in his career, which terminated in his carrying a hod in Galesburg. In the year 1857, Herr Von Vechter, being then nineteen years old, and of a noble family, entered the army as Lieutenant, and through regular graduations, in I860 rose to the rank of Major. In the month of September of that year he was insulted at a levee by the Colonel of his regiment.

Proud and high-spirited, he resented the insult, and a challenge was passed between the two officers. They met—pistols at ten paces—and the Colonel fell. With great difficulty Vechter eluded the authorities, and at last escaped to England. There he remained but a short time, and finding no suitable employment he emoarkeu for the United States, and upon his arrival proceeded to Chicago. He arrived here the day the intelligence of the fall of Fort Sumter flashed through the country, and his means being nearly exhausted, he enlisted in the Ninth Illinois, then being organized. The man who had worn the epaulets of an Austrian officer for more than three years carried a musket in the ranks of that battalion, and was severely wounded at the battle of Pittsburg landing.

When he was mustered out he obtained employment of various kinds, and endured many vicisitudes incident to the lot of a laboring man. He feared to write to his relatives as the Austrian Government might learn his whereabouts and cause his apprehension under the extradition treaty, and so he suffered and toiled in silence, until finally he found himself in Galesburg carrying a hod on the new hotel.

The packet he received yesterday contained a full pardon under the sign manual of the Emperor. The Colonel had only been severely wounded, and freely acknowledged that he alone had been in fault, and that the duel had been of his own seeking. By the death of his uncle, Von V. inherits a rich estate and the title of Baron.
