' OwiNO to the utm.su tl space we are compelled to devote to matters connected with the pjaliug city election, much other matter of gone-il interest, including several communications, has been unavoidably cro wded out. A few more days will decide the destiny of tho city, and W3 will then turn our attention mure particularly to other topics. The .ashville Railroad. The importance of the early completion of the Nashville Railroad is acknowledged by all of our business men and by all citizens who are in favor of the continued progress of the city. It is the fir.-t public matter to which our people must give their attention. It will bo remembered that at a recent meeting of a large number of our leading citizens aud heaviest tax-payers, it was uuaniiuuusly xisolved that if the terms of our subscription to that enterprise could be safely modified, it would be greatly to the interests of the Road to furnish the company One lluudred Thousand Dollars this season. In order to determine this matter, Mayor Baker,

Democracy. Co ir ie r, 'Alst.

We have yet to Bee the Democracy rally at the cry of " Free Schools." That cry has resounded through our city many times, in the past twelve

years, but no rallying was doD3 by the Democracy, save to oppose all who shouted and echoed the cry. By three-fourths of the pirty in Evansville the words can not be spoken. They would make as bad work, in pronouncing them, as did the Ephraimites at the fords of Jordan, in

their efforts to say Shibboleth don't believe in Free Schools

regard them as an abomination. They greatly prefer ignorance. ' Light Taxes and llei vy Trade " are good catch-words. But how can the Democracy rally under the cry of Light Taxes, when the city taxes were twenty-five per rent. . heavier, under

their management of municipal affiirs,

than they have been during the Republican ' administration ? Hew can they prate about " light taxes" when, under Mr. Walker's management, county taxes were collected amounting to ?22 83 in gold to every voter in the county, and since his removal from office the taxes have been as low

as $10 30 per voter in currency? The glaring inconsistency of asking the Democracy to rally at the cry of "Light Taxes," in view of these facts, is too great to arouse enthusiasm. We suggest that tho old, time-honored, cry of " down with the nigger," " no nigger equality," &c., is far more efficacious than the new-fangled Republican notions about " Light Taxes and Free Schools." If something new is absolutely essential, why

not vociferate " Plenty of Greenbacks aod no responsibility." We throw out these suggestions for our Democratic friends who haven't seen the ligh; taxes under Democratic administration, and who can't swallow the Free School dodge.

gor in vishing our city, as our Public School Houses. And yet the Democratic candidate tor jfayor, in hi Market-house harangu', boldly declare that they were twice a3 large an-d twice as expensive as they ought to be, and thjit one half as large as that recently built in the Ninth Ward, would answer for twenty years to come. So ii may, for. such

illiterate men as Mr. Walker and that large majority of his party who z.re on principle known to

They j be opposed to all public free schools They whatsoever. But while the statistics

show that there are in this city school house accommodations for less than one-third of the children entitled to school privileges, and while our present houses are filled to overflowing, we are satis5ed the liberal and intelligent majority of the voters of Evansville will not only endorse what Mayor Baker and the School Board have done, but will say to them by their decision next Monday, "go forward in the good work of building school houses."

The Arms Purchase. Mr. Walker in his last effort to defend Liiu-eif in the purchase ' of arms for the County in 1301, publishes in the Courier an extract from a coramunicat:on published in the Journal of May 28th, 1501, written by Judge Foster, one of the County Commissioners, from which it appears that "Mr. Walker telegraphed the committee here what he had purchased, and the offer he had to purchase Enfield rifies, and- requested their instructions as to how many he should buy.

How It will Work One of the largest contractors and builders, in the city, a few days ago, made an effort to dispose of a large

amount of City Bonds to one of the leading capitalists of Evansville. The answer was, that he could buy none now, and must wait until he saw into whose hands the City Government and its financial management would be placed. If Mayor Baker was to continue to manage matters, he would be assured not only of the responsibility of the City for its Bonds, but that they, would be maintained "at something near their par value. But if au untried man and new measures were to govern the city, he could not tell to what price City Bonds would go, or whether they would ever be paid at all. We know that the credit of Evans

ville is unexcelled by that of any Western city, in the New' York market. Our bonds are held, on the Stock Board, higher than any of our neighboring cities. Notwithstanding the heavy improvements of which the Democracy, who pay a very small proportion of the taxes, complain, the price of City Orders have been well sustained. In this respect, there is a

marked contrast between M lyor Ba-

Tlie City Wharf. The statement made by Mayor Baker, in his speech on Saturday night, in reference to the City Wharf, surprised and gratified our citizens. In l-!f9, when the Democracy turned

over the city government to Mayor Baker, there was a mud wharf, a debt of $32,000, and not a cent of revenue corning into the City Treasury from that source. Now, we have one of the best wharfs in the West, and with a rate of wharfage equal to other cities, the revenue from this quarter alone would pay the entire interest on a debt of $300,000. And yet Mayor Baker is abused by the Democracy for what he has done in this matter. But every liberal and

progressive citizen rejoices at what he has accomplished.

Will we invest in the Nashville Railroad one -hundred thousand dollars at once? And if so. how shall we do it in order to 1.3 of the most value to the Company, an. 1 yet save our city from the rinuous discount on its bonds to wlrch the city of Henderson was subjected? It is a pertinen't iquestion iu the eiuvass for Mayor of

walkers treacherous memory majT have apain deceived him, and that there is an explanation which will exculpate him from the charge of erimiual culpability iu abstracting the Public Records from the Auditor's office. He insists that he returned the Real Estate Register. It is suggested that he has confounded this with the return of his celebrated Real

villc answer.

Assessor! Probably Mr. Walker's memory being thus refreshed will help him out of the dilemma of conviction of a wilful falsehood. "hue abstracted record " if it is not in the Auditor's office.

The success of Mr. Walker as a "speakist" has not been very remarkable, notwithstanding the fact that he assures, his audience that "you see I can make a speech." He has hardly appeared a single time before the publio but that he has.made some assertion that has injured his cause, even with the irumaceulate Peter Maier at his back to pull his coat-tail. He has, however, one of the requisites of a successful Copperhead speaker, a reckless contempt for the truth. As illustrative of this, he has repeated the assertion that the Ninth Street School House cost forty

thousand dollars, when he knows that the published contract price was less than. twenty-nine tJujiaand dollars.

The Democratic candidato for Mayor, ."ug closely pressed, has brought to his assistance Mr. Willard Carpenter. They are enlightening the reople nightly from the same platform. The chief burdeu of the oce is the extravagance of the present city administration, in building too many and too expensive School Houses. The other occupies his time mainly in the advocacy of the old Straight Line Railroad project. The Courier gently chimes in with both of them in its usual sarcastic and obscure way. It attacks Mayor Baker for what he has accomplished for our Public Schools; and it is understood to favor the building of the Straight Line Roarl, and would make the suc

cess of the Nashville Road contingent upon the building of the former. The people erf the Ninth Ward

will, in their meeting to-night, have an opportunity to consider the question whether their uew School House is too fine for thc-m, as stated by Mr. Walker. Ther-j are not many rich men living in that, locality, but there are au abundance of them who can appreciate our excellent school privileges, and whose children eDj'oy the comforts of a giol school house.

rifles, which he did." Mr. Walker rather injures than helps hid case by this extract. His entire purchase of guns amounted to 081, in addition to a large lot of trash, in the way of cavalry pistols, sabers, &c. It is well known that about the only guns which were at all fit for use were the two hundred Enfield rifle?,

and these he would not buy until h,e had positive instruction from the committee here. But for the timely advice of Mayor Baker and others here, his entire purchase would have been a complete failure. The two hundred Enfield rifles are all that

saved his investment from "being totally valueless, and for this, i t appears, upon his own showing, we are indebted to Mayor Baker and others here, and. not to the shrewdness of the Democratic candidate for Mayor. Pitiful cowardice. An insinuation, says Webster, the

great Lexicographer, "is justly regarded as one of the uawsl resorts of malice and falsehood." For illustra

tion of the fact, see the Courier a characteristic articles ou Mayor Baker.1It was the desire of the School Board and the city authorities to erect in Lamasco, the coming season, an attractive and comfortable school house,

with all the modern school improvements. But we are given to understand from Mr. Walker that if he is elected Mayor, the stylo of school house architecture will have to be changed, as he is in favor of a return to the primitive style iu the good old days of genuine Democracy. We see by the Union, of yesterday, that Mr. Walker is engaged iu ex

plaining away some charges which have been preferred against him as guardian and administrator, in which capacity it vas alleged that he managed the property more for his own gain than for the interest of the orphans and widows. Mr. Walker is quite indignant at the charge, and makes an unequivical denial.

From the Boston Journal, 21th J A Democratic Falsehood. The Democratic newspapers, to some extent, have revived of late a dishonest trick, which years ago was practiced by some few disreputable organs of that party. By making pretended quotations from newspapers of influence, the attempt was made to

impose upon the voters by creating political capital. A recent instance of this species of falsification has been brought to our notice. The following paragraph has received a wide circulation at the West through the medium of the Democratic press: "The Boston Journal savs:

'Although it has cost us a great deal of time, and cost us a vavt amount of money, we have at last got the stolid Dutch of the West educated up to the higher law standard. When but a few years ago they spit upon us the " despised abolitionists," we determined the "negro" (as they called the colored man) should be ma le their equals or we would crush the Union. Colored suffrage is a fixed fact. The foot of the negro is now on the neck of our ancient revilers, and those who are not in our toils must stand from under.'

And these sentiments were uttered in the 3-car of our Lord Eighteen Hundred and Sixty-Eight, iu a renowned centre of political enlightenment and at the very source of Puritan civilization." We are indebted to the Evansville (Ind.) Journal for its prompt denial of the authoritj- of the above paragraph, which it is needless to say never appeared in our column-. The sentiments therein expressed are not only totally at variance with those i' .i ii

irequtnuy uttereu by us regaraing our adopted citizens, but as our citizens are well aware, the very language carries undoubted evidence of the impossibility that they ever originated in our columns. It is too much to

ask or expect that the newspapers which have given circulation 10 such trash as coming from The Boston Journal should publish this refutation of a base foreery.
