will be quite likely to bring out another edition of Democratic arithmetic this morning. Its figures, as we have shown, are mere '"figures of speech." By the evidence of Mr.

DOWLINO,

that all the

majority in Terre Haute, can only be de fented by their own neglect of duty. It any considerable number of them think they can't afford to go to the polls, they will have the satisfaction of realizing, to-night, that their negligence has resulted in the defeat of their party's candidates. But if a full Republican vote is polled, the victory will assuredly be

nearly two thousand dollars more to maintain the police force during the past year than it cost during the last year of Republican rule. What has beenjjained by this great increase of expenditure in that department?

MAJOR

Journal

EXPRESS,

Board consists of two Democrats and one Republican. Their management is satis* factory to us, and should be so to the Jottrned.

We are quite willing to trust

them,-and have no fears that they will prove recreant to the confidence reposed in them. They are disposed to treat the colored people fairly, and to consult the best interests of all classes. Under these circumstances the Democratic organ has no provocation to attribute any conspiracy to those laithful officials.

THE REPUBLICANS,

is attempt

In all legislative bodies the party in the majority is propis ly held responsible for all acts of omission or commission. The Republicans now serving the city as Councilmen have discharged their duties with fidelity, and are justly entitled to the approval of their constituents.

About Schools.

The Democratic organ rends its garments in a futile effort to get up an excitement in relation to the education of colored children. It wants to know a great many things, and in its frantic pursuit of knowledge it forgets that portion ofthe Decalogue which is intended to encourage veracity. It charges upon the

pertinently asks:

"Why is it that the Democracy, being deaf and blind can not, for the sake of decency, be dumb also? Not being able to hear the pcans of victory which are daily chanted over the destruction of slavery, nor to see the banners of freedom waving from the country's battlements, it would be a happy thing for its reputation if it could keep its foolish mouth shut* The la«s of its other senses would not then be so generally advertised." ,, ("i

trial of fire engines at Indianapo

lis last Saturday resulted in favor of the Seneca Falls "machine." The Journal of that city savs:' ...

The trial was to determine which engine could throw the largest amount of water in thesame time. For that purpose two cisterns of equal capacity, one at the corner of Washington and Tennessee streets, and the other at the corner of Market and Tennessee streets, were par tially filled, fifty barrels being required to fill either one. The Latta engine was at the corner of Washington, pumping from that cistern into the one at the corner of Market, where the Seneca Falls engine was forcing the water back to Washington street. At five minutes to eleven tne torch was applied, and in just forty minutes the Seneca Falls engine had flooded the cistern at the corner of Washington street, thus forcing fifty barrels more of water in forty minutes than the

Latta. When this test was completed, the two engines threw a stream through two hundred and fifty feet of hose, both using the same cistern. The latter succeeded in throwing a stream through an inch and a quarter nozzle, a distance of two hundred and live feet, and the Seneca Falls threw the same sized stream one hundred and ninety feet, when the water gave out.

Thus ended the second trial between these machines, in both of which the Seneca Falls engine has proved itself the better of the twq.

MEANS more than usual, to say that the announcement of the death of Dr. John S. Bobbs will be received by the people of this city and State with the greatest surprise and the deepest regret. So few knew that he was ill—it is such a short, very short time, since he walked in' our streets the honored man, the loved physician, the respected citizen—that, today, to-say that h« is,dead seems to enunciate that which mttsi he, at least mould be, an untruth. Yet, strange and benumbing as it must be to those who knew,. him in either one of the three relations, it is our sad duty to record the event of his decease, which occurred yesterday evening at his residence just east of the city limits, after an illness from pneumonia of one week.—Jnd.Journal, 2d.
