A CERTIFICATE of incorporation of the Southern Indiana Car and Machine Com pany has been filed with the Sec etary of State. The company is organized for the purpose of manufacturing and construc'ing railroad cars and other machinery at the town of Cla'ksville, or Ohio Falls, Clarke county. The capital .stock is $500,000, and the term, of existence is twenty-ftve years.

Cincinnati "Commercial" has been

looking over the political field until it has come lo the conclusion that "the Democracy, as a whole, has at this time no principles and no policy ef any kind. It has no bond of organic cohesion. The historical continuity of its existence ha beeq btoken, aad it can never again be what it was in the past. It has no great leaders now to whose dictation it can submit.

Outliving one slander, or atoning for one mistake, ought to be the sufficient work of one career, however long but General Benjamin

Butler, of Massa

chusetts, seems to have been appointed to set right a whole world of errors and accusations. Perhap« his naiure may beat fault perhaps he gives oflense to too many people perhaps he is over quick in resentment. Yet it cannot be ^rue that he is either or all of these to everybody. Certain it is that we know of no man more ready to fly to the defence of a friend, none whose life has been more freely.given to the championship ot the poor in the New England factories, and none who, in the last tragic decade began with such eager, unique, and practical patriotism. We could not forget these things even if we desired and now that we see Butler a candidate lor Governor of Massachusetts, battling with a host of foes within our own tanks, headed by that bitter Therfites, the Springfield "Republican," which preserves its bad eminence by unceasing assaults upon many of our best inen, we sympathize with him, as witii any other man thus hounded and su'rounded. General Butler's experience has been rough. He has been called the stormy petrel of a stormy period he ha« struck hard blows, right and left be has also been aggressor and defender, accuser and accused but he has somehow contrived to emerge from every trial vindicated if not victorious. Of prodigious energy, incessant application, marvellous memory, quick wit, and thorough legal training, he has taken part in every question, whether finance, slavery, tariff, foreign affaire, railroads—whether referring to candidates for President or ^candidates for Speaker—and Jiaa never "Veen among the distanced mea ©f the debate. Imprudent to a degrte, committing his own share of mistakes, bitter in retort, fierce in attack, and, as in the case of Admiral Porter, sometimes unjust and uncharitable, yet he has left upon record, whether as soldier or civilian! some resplendent trophies of sagacity, and a skill in the management of rebel communities that will make his name honored forever The proof that he is made of sterling stuff, that he is a man of undaunted metal, is the fact that he has won and held, against terrible odds, the con* fidence of the most jealous and critical constituency in Massachusetts—the peo

SECRETARY OF STATE.

NEW ORLEANS,

Aug. 30.—Governor

Warmoutli yesterday issued an order suspending George E. Bovee, Secretary of State, and appointing F. J. Herron, formerly United States Marshal, to discharge the duties of the office until the Legislature acts upon the subject. Bovee's oflence, the Governor charges, was in pio mulgating knowingly, willfully, unlawfully and with the purpose of impos ing upon the people of the State as a law, that which he knows has not become a law, a bill passed by the last Legislature known as the Crescent City Water Works bill. Bovee refusing to surrender the office, was forcibly ejected by the metropolitan police, and Herron was placed in possession. Bovee claims that he acted with the advice of the Attorney General of the State.

DISGRACEFUL 8CENK.

While Bovee was being ousted from his office in Mechanics Institute, a still more disgraceful scene was occurring at the City Hall. The last meeting of the Council passed an ordinance authorizing extension of the City Water Works on the Holly plan, and authorizing the issue of two and a half millions of bonds for that purpose. An ordinance was also introduced to lease the water woi ks to the City Water W01 ks Company for twenty five years, authorizing tne parties to mortgage the works for two millions. While discussing the meas ure to lease the works, administrator De Lassiger, colored, produced a certificate for one thousand shares of one hundred dollars each of stock issued IQ John Lookwood, and endorsed by Lockwood. Mr. Delassigee stated they had been given him to secure his vote for the measure. Mayor Flanders stated that every member of the Council had been appioached. He had seen a hundred thousand dollars' worth of stock oflei-_d to one of tbemAdministrator Wal'on stated that he had been oflered a sum which would make him independent lor life, to support the measure The impresoion prevails that the scheme will eventually pass the Conn cil, and the city will not only be fleeced out of i.s water works, but out of $2,000,000 additional.

The amount actually charged to the city $380^178 46. The Times this morning thinks it is Governor Hoffman's duty to institute proceedings against the men who have stolen money from the City Treasury. It fears that the present District Attorney is too intimately Connected with the ring to act in the premises, except upon compulsion, and therefore if Governor Hoffman taikes the initiative, he can disprove the insinuations that he has ajded ^ke^scbemea of the ring, and at the same time vindicate his reputation A morning Republican |aper sa^s, it has transpired that a bill of fifteen thousand dollars for furnishing the artnory of the 9th Regiment, was paid at tlie Controller's office June 8th, though the armory had nothing done to it till a week after, and it believes that from first to last not two hundred dollars wu tJh ol work was done to be place

Rosenzweig told a Times reporter some time ago that he would attend to an ordinary case for $200, and he had facilities for furnishing marriage and burial certifi catea the same as Madame Ristelle and the others had. Thin much he said in the belief that the reporter came in good faith to solicit his services, but when he learned he was only a newspaper man in quest of useful knowledge, he raved and went on like a maniac, so that the reporter was in fear ol his life. One important tact, possibly new to the majority of the public, is brough' distinctly out by the interviewer, name ly: that Rosenzweig and many others like him have the means for whitewashing soiled reputations committed to their care, as well as a sort of legal blind for committing the remains of their butchered victims to the grave, without lhe intervention of a coroner's jury, or the proper certificate of death from natural causes.

POLITICAL. „A.V .-•

The action of the Union Republican Organization in delaying the call for the State Convention till the last of Septem ber, is this morning *t ongly condemned by the Tribnne. It nays that the re organization of the Republican party in this city was a movement on the part ol federal office holders, and aspirants for government places, to turther personal objects and secure the re election of Senator Roscoe onkling. The Chairman of the State Committee, Mr. Cornell, holds the best federal office in the city, and has de aved opening the cinvasa to within a few ."weeks of the election, in order to pack it with the nomii. es of federal office holders. Many St-na.e and Assembly, nominations will be made too late to allow thorough scrutiny of the character Of the nominees, and if in this way bad men are foi»ied upon 1 he Repiblicaj party, thei defeat will be due 10 their so called reorganizers.

MALPRACTICE.

Emily August, a fast young woman, who was left at a station house at Brooklyn yestetday by Dr Perry and Madame Van Buskirk, died this morning. She is believed to have been the victim of mal practice. The doctor and the madame will probably be arrested

THE ABORTION BUSINESS.

Another examination was made to day at the house of Dr. Rosenzweig, and resuited in the discovery of important let ters, blank deatk and still birth certifi caies, and a long list of prescriptions A man who gives his name tw Foster, and who said he lived in 16th street, Brook7 tvn, called on Warden Brennan to-day with his servant girl, who had lived with him some months. The woman who accompanied him also recognized the lady. The report that the murdered girl was a niece of the Doctor, is not confirmed The case of Rose'nzwieg has aroused a feeling of indignation The number of abortionists in the city, of both sexes, is known to be laige, one of the newspapers having business advertisements of no less than twelve of these practitioners. The city press are demanding a general clear ing out of these establishments by the police. It is believed the indignation of the public will result in securing some action in this direction by the properly constituted authorities.
