A DUBLIN LETTER says that the recent census returns for Ireland, contrasted wilh those of the past thirty years, show a steady decrease in the population. In 1841, the population was 8,196,597. In 18ol it was 6,.)74,278, while this year it is but 5,402,759, nearly 400 000 less than ten years ago.

THIS afternoon at the great work of changing gauge on the O & M. Railroad will he commenced under direction of J. CiRts\voi,i, General Snpei intendent. The Vincennes .Sim says it ''is the general belief of practical railroad men tliattlie Western Division will be changed in less than fourteen hours, and there will be no time lost on the East Division, as the East Division boys are wide awake and will compete with their Western brothers on change, and the work will no doubt be finished from St. Louts to Cincinnati by Sunday evening.''

AUONY was depicted on the countenances of several leading Democrats assembled at the Stale Auditor's oflice yesterday. Rumor has it that some important papers arc missing from the files, and further, that (heir absence is attributed to discrepencies existing between them

and the books. We shall have more to say on this matter as toon as we obtain authentic information. Meantime, there is good reason to believe, the "heap of trouble" in the Democratic camp will not be sen-ibly diminished.

KKOM a dispatch to the Cincinnati

znte,

Stniinci:

Gw

it appears that Judge LOWERY, of (lie Allen county Circuit Court, has de elded that the Legislatuie had no power to authorize corporations to exercise their corporate iglns outside of the Stale limits, and the'-efote the elcc'on of the Fort Wayne, Jackson & Saginaw railroad re~ cently held in Jackson, Michigan, and at which the Indiana stockholders voted, was null and void, their action in so doing being without authority. An appeal was taken to the Supreme Court. The^e are dif'ferernce of opinion as io what action the tipper court.i will take in the c:ise, but if Judge LmvEKY is sustained, the effect will be serious to all consolidated railroads running into or through this State whose actions have been similar to that of the above road. The case is an itnpo.tani one, and will attract much atten tion.

Two Evasions.

Some time ago a notorious horse-thief was arrested, by one of our local officers, while bestriding a stolen animal on which he was going, at a tremendous pace, towards the setting sun. "Where did you gel that horse?"' inquired the officer. "The wheat crop is very line this year," replied the thief.

Recently the editor of the leading newspaper in the State directly charged the State Printer with having obtained, by fraud, a large amount of the State's money. A prominent Democratic paper, edited by General KISE, who, in 1SGS, was the Democratic candidate for Secretary of State, reiterated the charge de' clared that, by "false and fabricated accounts," by "adding perjury to theft," the State Printer had rolbed the people. All the leading* papers of the State, of both parties, published the accusation and demanded an immediate explanation. And the State Printer—like the equine abstracter—respond*. in the last issue of the

the "Little Chain," the "Grand

The thorough examination made by Mr. STEIN, on this survey, demonstrates the fact the river is susceptible of such improvement a* to make i's navigation reliable, for the greater part of the year, from this city to its mouth. He is inclined to the belief that this can be done for a less sum of money than estimated by him in his preliminary reconnoisance of last year. The present survey has been carefully made, the levels of the river at all points taken, and the entire topography faithfully ascertained. The party leavts to-dav in the direction of Lafayette, where it will probably arrive bv the 1st of August. Mr. STAIN'S report and estimates will not be ready to submit for three or four months. Everything, howevei, he assures us, looks more favoiabie than was anticipated.

"WHAT shall we do with Dan Voorhees? He says he shall retire from pol itics that under no circumstances will he permit his name to be used in connection with the Democratic nomination for Governor of Indiana and that he is not, and never again expects to be, a candidate lor any office whatever. Is Dan struggling to be recognized as a candidate for President? The question is, perhaps, not very appropriate but no Democrat who goes about making such declarations at this hour can he looked upon without suspicion."—Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

It is hardly the fair thing to suspcci DANIEL of fishing for the Presidential nomination, in face of his plain and unequivocal declaration in favor of HENDRICKS. Still, if the State elections of this year should ptove an emphelic condemnation of the new departure, it cannot be denied that DANIEL, as the most prominent and popular of the undeparted Democracy, would present very available timber for a Presidential candidate. And the contingency which we suppose is not an improbable one. We know that he is expecting a popular verdict against the new departure in the States where that rash experiment is now being tried.

THE TOBACCO FATR.

EVANSVII.LE, IND, July 21.—Tbe'annual Tobacco Fair closed last evening, and was in every respect a grand success. Tweniy-five hundred dollars in gold premiums were offered for the different grades, which brought together a large number of competitors for the various prizes. In addition to the regular board of buyers, there were additional representatives, from Cincinnati, Paducah, est. Louis Baltimore, New Yoik, Henderson, Louisville. Shawneeiown, Cairo, Hopkinsville, Clarksville and several other tobacco centers, causing the bidding to be rery spirited and at full prices. The premium hogshead, bright wrapper, prize $2-50 in gold, was sold to R. W. Harper & Co., of Evansville, at $58 per hundred pounds. Two hogsheads enteied for account of a planter ill Ballard county, were not admitted by the Board, on account of some informality during the sale ol prize and classed tobaccos. They were offered and bought by F. Byrnes, of Evansville,ut $102 and $90 per 100 lbs Some choice selections of bright leaf and cullers were taken at fancy prices, some as high as $40 to $50. The sales, however, average above former quotations, and at the close may be said to range as follows: Lugs, six fifty to seventy-five common to fair low leaf, seven fifty to 860 medium bright leaf, nine to eleven dollars common to medium cutters, twelve to sixteen dollars. Selections of all grades nominal, low tobaccos in demand. The sale-t during the Fair amounted io over one thousand hogsheads. Sales will be continued to morrow and next week. Large offerings will be made daily, stocks large and receipts increasing since the improvement of navigation.

Major W. A. Bethel received the first premium in each of the first and second claw, viz:

First 5 hogsheads best factory dried leaf, open to Kentucky and Tennessee, gold $5 0 5 hogsheads best factory dried leaf, open to Indiana and Illinois, gold $500 for the best shipping leaf, single hogshead, Col Aquilla Spray, of Curds ville, Ky received ©150 in gold. His tobacco afterwards sold at $3,500. The cuners and manufacturing leaf entered for prizes were all sold at very full figures, and the hogshead best prized and handled, although of an inferior grade, was sold for $1,075 with $100 premium. The tobaccos to be shipped will go to Louisville, New Orleans, New York and Baltimore, p-incipally. A considerable quantity of the shippers and factory dried leaf, go direct to Liverpool and London. Some may remain here for manufacture and rehandling Harper & Co., who purchased the premium hogs head, will manufacture theirs here. They bought largely of fine tobaccos during lhe sale.

The Fair was held in the National Hall, and a fine lunch, with refreshments was constantly on hand. Everything passed off pleasantly, and the utmost good feeling prevailed. A very large number of strangers have been in the city during the week, outside of the tobacco operators.

ST. LOUIS.

COMMERCIAL AGENCY.

ST LOUIS, July 21—The case of A. A. Millier against O. Shepard, manager of Bradstreet's Commercial Agency, was before the Circuit Court yesteiday, the hearing being on a motion of the defendant to dissolve an injunction granted a few days ago, injuring lhe circulation of the July number of Bradstreet's Commercial reports, on the ground of false and injurious rating of the plaintiff Several witnesses testified to the solvency of Mr. MiPier, his business qualifications and integrity, and also that he is doing a large and prosperous business. W. B. King, formerly an employee of the Bradstreet Agency, testified as to the mode of transaciing the business of the Agency. He said ihe reports were manufactured in the office From the time Mr. Shepard took charge of the office the reports were based on old reports. The city reports were all copied into letter book, and then lorwatded to Ne'. York. A book called the "Black Book" skept, in which all unfavorable repo were copied. He testified that the Bn lstreet Agency was partial to subscribers, ind a gold headed cane he had heard would very often raise a man's rating. The plaintiff had been reduced from the rating of C. C. D. a vei highi at ing, io D. E-, which meant thai lie was doing business with a capital of less than $500. A subscription to the Agency generally meant an increase of credit. He knew of one firm being voted higher for fear they were going to discontinue their subscrip tion. The witness further stated that he had manufactured hundreds of reports himself. He had ral#d a whole district at the request of the management.

The cause which led to his death is as yet all sur mise, but it is well known that Col Barnes has had many financial reverses within a few year* pa»t, and that those revere*' may have bad something to do with his suicide, is quite probable.

ARMY COMMISSIONS.

In the House of Commons this evening, Cardwell, Secretary of War, laid on the table the Queen's warrant abolishing the system of purchase of arn1" commissions. THE PUEPS ON THE PUKL *E 8Y8TEM.

LONDON, July 21.—The I lines says the act of the Ministers abolishing the system of purchase of aimy commissions, by Royal warrant, is a violent wrench of ihe constitution, and a wanton setting aside of tfie will of the House of Lords. The Times regrets that this grave issue has been raised, but expresses the hope that the Lords will, in their future action, think of the effect on the officers of the army, rather than the indignity to their own privileges.

The Daily News opposes the conduct of the government in making themselves exponents of the popular will, and recommends that the Lords pass the bill abol ishing tire put chase of army commissions. The Telegraph exults over the action of the Ministry, and says Gladstone will be more popular for vindicating the dignity of the Hou.-e of Commons in securing the harvest of its laborious session, and for reorganizing the defenses of the country, and guaiding the interests of the army.

The Post says the course of the government has been somewhat unconstitu tional, bringing, it believes, Parliament into contempt before the people.

FINANCIAL.

NEW YORK, July 21 The tribune's financial article Bays, continued threats of a rupture between the Northwest and St. Paul people, leave but little doubts in general minds, that former harmonious relations will be restored only when their ultimate object shall have, been attained. The public will do well, however, to leave the quarrel to be fought between the interested parties. North West shares webt off one to two per cent, on considerable sales, but St. Paul was weak on a light business. There was the usual gossip about Lake Shore, the price seeking a lower range- This stock is looked upon by many as a test lever of the market, and it is thought the course of future speculation rests in a great measure on the result of the meeting next Wednesday It will remembered that according to their report, it was only by the strict est arithmetical solutions that the com pany declared an eight per cent, annual dividend, precise figures reflecting about nine, as net earnings of a capital stock of $35,000,000. Should the result of the next meeting be to increase the capital to $50,000,000, by an addition of $15,000,000 new issue, the question of future and immediate dividends would be at least pioblematical, while considerations may not govern the controlling clique in their fiiture actions, yet it ought to have weight with the future purchaser.

SURVEYING EXPEDITION.

Advices state that Sir William Logan and his party, who left St. Johns, N. F., as a geological surveying expedition, on the 12th inst., were entirely cut off on their route by a severe storm on the 4th, which swept away bridges and flooded the principal parts of the only road they had to travel upon. It is probable I hat the horses and baggage attached to the expedition have been either lost or badly injured. The party are believed to be safe, inasmuch as they were provided wilh portable gutta percha boats, and one canoe. The storm has done considerable damage in and around the towns oi. Topsail and Hollyrood, of Newfoundland, and is said to be a continuation of the hurricane which blew over the coast of Labrador some weeks ago, destroying 325 fish ing smacks, 23 dwelling houses, over 10 stores and about $300,000 worth of dried fish, fi liing nlukes and other property. The .ruber of lives already ascertained as lo is 93. Many more are expected to be added to the dismal record.

ITALIAN GIRL.

A poor Italian named Pietro Gardella, of Troy, N. Y., arrived in this city a lew days ago, searching for his only child, a beautiful girl of ten years of age, who had been stolen or enticed away by a villain named iiocomo Mtistane, an organ grind er. She disappeared on the 29th of April, company with Mustane, from Troy, and since then no trace can be found of her. The child is three feet nine inches high, slim, of dark complexion, with brown hair and dark eyes. She can speak very little English. It is feared the poor child has met with foul play, or been left with one ofthe keepers of infamous houses in the city.

SERIOUS DISTURBANCES.

The Sun says Naunte or.Hackensack, on the Erie R. has been during the last week the scene of serious disturbances among the Erie employes there, embracing Irish and German laborers. To guard against national disputes, the Company stationed the Germans at one point and the Irish at another, but the men met in the village alter labor hours, and entered into a deadly contest on Saturday. The men having been paid, repaired to the saloons in the village. A number ot Germans were at 10 o'clock in the evening, sipping lager beer in Jacob Bross' saloon, and a number of Irishmen under the influence of liquor, and bent on mischief, entered. They picked a quarrel, and eventually drove the Germans out. Their violence was such that Mr. Bross and his family had to flee for their liues. The Irishmen having cltared the saloon, drank all the liquor, broke the glass and Chinaware, ana then departed. On the following Tuesday morning, while Ryan and O'Donnell, Irish laborers, were going to work, they were met by several Germans and terribly beaten with clubs. Ryan may not survive his injuries. The Irish laborers at a meeting on the same afternoon resolved to attack the Bross Saloon headquarters of the Germans, and armed with clubs and stones they appeared late in the evening a', the door of the saloon and demanded admission. This being denied, ihev stormed the place with •tones, and damaged it considerably. The Germans had, however, got wind of the intended assault, and armed with shot guns discharged volley after volley into the crowd of assailants, from the windows above, while others armed with clibs made a sally upon them below. The rioters beat a hasty retreat, leaving three of their wounded. Patrick McMahon »was shot in several places, the_ wounds, though painful are not necessarily fatal.

Isaac Cullen, shot in 26 places, and re* covery doubtful. Martin Gohrgan shot two or three times, and severely clubbed. How many of those who ran away were hu *t, can not be ascertained.

BEECHER ON THE ORANGE QUESTION. Henry Ward Beecher says in the Christian Union of this week, that the Orange societies should parade next week with not a banner less or one inscription rubbed out. Thev should not do it on an implied promise that if protected for once, they will then do it no more They ought to move through the streets ot New York until nobody thinks of molesting them. When that time arrives, it will be a matter of no public importance whether the annual procession is kept up or not, but as long as a dog wags hia tongue against an Orange procession, or a bewildered magistrate forgets his duty toward them, the public good requires their continuance. If the Orangemen of New York wait till next year to march through the streets of the citv, they will beiray a sacred duty. By accident they have become the representatives of a prin ciple which lies at the foundation of mod em civilization. Thev do not now repre sent a spent fact in history, but a living principle It is not the battle of Boyne in Ireland, but a question of liberty in New York.

MURDER.

CHICAGO, July 21.—The Nevada, Mo., Tiroes, of the 14th, gives the particulars of a deliberate murder committed by a man named Lay ton, his victim being a man named Bedford. Layton arrived at Balltown a few days previous, riding a splendid horse and wearing a brace of revolvers. After stopping at Bennington's hotel a few days, he started for Bedford's house, some miles distant. While riding along he was joined by a citizen. They rode down the lane to near Bedford's house, dismounted and hitched their horses to a fence. They then approached near a threshing machine, where Bediord was at work, who, on seeing Layton, started and ran towards kis house. Lay ton immediately drew one of his revolvers and discharged three barrels ai him, all of which took effect, causing Bedford's death in an hour. During the shooting Layton uttered not a word The cause of the murder is explained as follows:

During the war Layton had Bedford in his employ. In his absence Bedford seduced his wife, and broke up his family Layton has been hunting his victim lor several years, who has finally paid the penalty ot his perfidy.

INFANTICIDE.

Florence Mitchell, of Litchfield, Moker county, Minn., a school teacher of highly respectable parentage, and who has heretofore borne a respectable reputation, was arrested a few days since tor infanticide.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.'

The Denver, Colorado, News of the 18ih, gives the following particulars ot a tragedy that occurred at Running Creek, Douglass county. Miles Mauldin, a ranche man, and well known throughout the Territory, resides at the point above indicated. His second wite, who has been dead about one year, was named Gibson, and her brother and his wife are at present residing near the residence of Maul din, upon his ranche. On Sunday last Mauldin was visiting Mrs. Gibson, she having sent for him. Hei husband bad left home for Denver, and she being alone, asked Mr Mauldin if be would not oblige her by doing her a favor. She said she had lately written a letter to a friend named John somebody, but that owing to the imperfect address, the letter had b*en sent to the dead letter office, and trorn there returned to her. She was very pos itive in making this statement, and furthermore assured him that she would have this letter registered. Mrs. Gibson therefore requested Mr. Mauldin to address this letter for her, and upon asking the favor, handed him a letter sea'ed, as well as a postage s'amp- He placed the stamp upon the envelop, dipped the pen in the ink, and had made the first stroke of the letter "J," when this female fiend stepped up behind her victim-and while he was intent upon his work, and totally unconscious of impending fatality, drew a pistol, and fired one ball into his body, the shot entering the small ol bis back and paralyzing his lower extremities. Find ing that the first ball had not done its work, this woman instantly cocked the weapon and placed its muzzle close behind her victim's right ear, saying, "damn you, I started to kill you, and 1 intend to do it." But the pistol failed to do its work, the cap snapped and the cartridge did not explode. Mr. Mauidin sprang to his feet, still holding the en velop in his hand, and grappled with his assassin, but she jerked herself away and escaped into the road. Once there, the fact of the enormity of the deed seemed to have overwhelmed her senses^ and she threw awav the pistol and ran about a mile down the road, where she met some parties who were acquainted with her. These parties noticing her excited condition, and surmising that something unusual had happened, asked her what the matter was, whereupon she replied that she had shot Miles Mauldin.

They immediately took charge of Mrs. Gibson, and went to her house, where Mauldin was lound in the condition as above described. His assassin was at once secured, and the wounded man was cared for, but the doctors state thai it is an impossibility for him to survive. Family difficulties was the canse.

7' NEW FUNDED LOAN.

Records in the Treasury Department show that up to yesterday $67,000,000 of the new funded loan have been subscrib ed for. This saves the government Trea •ury in annual interest $690,000 Should Boutwell spend one year's interest in placing this loan on the market, the gov eminent will ihen receive a saving in interest of $670,000 annually, for nine ysars. Therefore the statements that the government would sustain a loss by the loan are inconsiderate and erroneous.
