THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER : The Hamilton Couuty.Ouio Uemocratio Convent'on was presided over by"abloated bondhoIder,"and President of a National Bank, all in the name of reform. It is stated that within a very short time five young ladies of Louisville have been seriously poisoned by the use of imported face powder adulterated with lead. In each case the effect of the cosmetic was paralytic both to the systems and facial beauty of the maidens. The Cincinnati Commercial and other papers have revived the old story that General Grant cannot "write the English language correctly, and that his most remarkable dispatches and state papers were the work of Secretary llAWLIXS, his Chief-of-Staff. If there be any truth in these insinuations," the Government had better abolish West Point as an institution of learning. If it graduates cadets who cannot write the English langu3ga correctly, it is a fraud upon tho nation, and ought to bo closed immediately. It is said that while General Grant has received the benefit cf a thorough education, Secretary Uawliks only enjoyed the benefit ol' a few months' schooling, and therefore would be, of the two, tho least likely to frame his thoughts in elegant phraseology. We think it will bo found that General Grant's official papers will not dete riorate, now that Secretary Rawlins is gone, any more than his victories diminished when Sherman and Mc Pherson di'1. not eommand the prin cipal corps of hi3 army. Some peo pie are flow to appreciate this fact, but they will be able, after a while, to comprehend it more fully. The frauds recently discovered in the Methodist Book Concern of New York, must prove fruitful of trouble to the Church. Heretofore the peo plo havo never wavered in their faith in the integrity of the men managing tha Book Concerns, and tho strong argument used by the opponents of Lay Delegation was the successful management of tho Publishing and Missionary Departmcnt-i of tho Church in the hands of the miuistry. It seems that Dr. Porter, who long had charge of the New York Book Concern, followed tho spirit of the times and organized a small ring, through which ho made his purchases of paper. Ilia son, for the past eight or ten years, has received an average commission of not less than 2vcn per cent, for purchasing printing paper, himself being a paper broker. In other words, Dr. Pouter allowed his son a heavy commission for doing his work. Report says tho purchases on which commissions have been allowed amounted to $130,000 per annum; and further, that the son sold paper to the Concern at rates which gave him a greater profit than tho allowance eet apart for him by his Pa. Irregularities aro also reported in the binding department, but no particulars are given. It is most unfortunate for tho Church that these defalcations have occurred. For oneo the confidence of tho people is shaken in the trustworthiness of their agents, and their contributions will be materially diminished. Suspicion will not only fall upon the Book Concern, but also upon the operations of the Missionary Society and other departments of the Church which handle large eom3 of money. We hope a full investigation of tho matter will show the defalcation not to to as bad as represented, and that Dr. Pouter will be ablo to clear himself of all charges of misconduct in tha management of tho trust committed to his care. He will havo many regard him with the eye of suspicion, because of his bitter hostilny to everything like the introduction of tho Lay clement in the management of tho affairs of the Chuch, and his transactions for tho Book Concern, will bo scrutinized with most unsparing pertinacity. He will bo suspicioned, whether justly or unjustly, of opposing Lay Delegation, because ho was feathering the nest of himself and. family out of tho Church funds, unless ho is able to show that hi3 dealings have been honest and upright in tho sight of God and man, after a iigid examination by men competent to detect any mismanagement or dishonesty in hi3 transactions. JKDIA:AlEEMlUjf Horses. The matched span of fine carriage horses owned jir. Wm. A. Culbertson, of this city, have taken several premiums at the Kentucky State Fair, held near Louisville. They have been in charge of tho famous livery stable man, ii. W. Jenkins, who has had them at several fairs in Kentucky, always taking the premium. He enters them as his own animals, according to agreement with Mr. C, hence the premiums. New Albany Ledger. Don't the Ledger slander tho Kentuckians by insinuating that deception is necessary ia order to get the managers of the State Fair to do justico to stock owned in another State? Our irnnrfw.inn V.ac: 1 ... 0 ulr,ajl3 oeca laat iftQ Kentuckians are always gratified to have fine stock from other States exhibited at their County and State Fairs, and that they always give them fall justico in awarding the premiums. It may be, however, that the Ledger is better posted a3 to tho policy adopted by the Awarding Committees, and that they are really as mean as it insinuates. It now appears that the old Lcgis lature of Tennessseq cannot be reus eembled by reasoa of a constitutional provision of thd State; and that, therefore, the hope of thus securing a

ratification of tlio Fifteenth Amend- sale for the Autumn of 1SC0, and it merit must be abandoned.

Laystall, Esq., and others. By William Irving, .lumen Kirk 1 auidlrj and Washington Irving. Printed from the original edition, with a preface and note?, by Evekt A. Jjijyckisck. New York: O. P. Putnam A box. Evansvllie: Fisii & Barter. This volume i3 from the Knicker bocker edition of Washington Irving's complete works, published by Putnam & Son, of New York. It i3 printed on the most beautiful, tinted paper, top edges gilt, and is elegantly bound in muslin. The illustrations are nu merous, and are printed on the finest steel plates, each engraving a gem in itself. It is said of Washington Irving that he is one of the very few authors whose writings never had to pass the ordeal of harsh and adverse criticism. This fact occasions no surprise to any one thoroughly familiar with his history and works. Everything about the man is genial as sunshine, and the humor which pervades his earlier papers never fails to exorcise the spirit of fault-finding even of those who are predisposed to be hypercritical. " Salmagundi" was the title of a humorous and satirical paper, which Mr. Irving was accustomed to fpeak of as a light, trivial publication, the sport of his boyhood days. It was printed and circulated in New York, and was edited by three gentlemen, whoso names we give in tho title. In addition to its own intrinsic merits, it is entitled to peculiar consideration, and even more careful reading, because it is really tho literary parent of the "Sketch Book," the "Alham bra "and other subsequent production? of Washington Irving, which have made his name so dear to read ers in both the old and new worlds. . The papers truly portray the whim wham3 of a very whimsical family, the counterpart of which, no doubt, could be found in many portions of New York at the time they were pub lished, and whoso dependents in heriting all their peculiarities arc to day to be found in all parts of the Great West. The follies which aroused tho indignation of Mustapha Rub-A-Dub Keli Khan, and which he so graphically portrayed in his letters to his friend Asem Ilacchem, principal slave driver to Ilia Highness the Bashaw of Tripoli, still hold up their unblushing heads in the great metropolis, as well as in the far West, while the kindly Humorist who satirized them sleeps beueath the sod. The same difficulties which pierced the soul of Mustapha with mauy sorrows, in his efforts to get an appropriation through Congress for a rair of breechos, are still found to hamper tho movements of Government and add to the national expenses. Probably the reason given by Mustapha for the delay in the reception of his breeches, still influences Congress in its deliberations. " My good Mussulman," said Mustapha's attendant, ' the Administration have the good of the people too much at heart to trifle with their pockets; and. they would sooner assemble and talk away ten thousand dollars, than expend fifty silently outof the Treasury; such is tho wonderful spirit of economy that pervades every branch of the Government." " But," replied Mustapha, " how is it possible they can epend money in talking? Surely words cannot bo the current coin of thi3 country?" "Truly," replied tho attendant, smiling, "your question is pertinent enough, for words, indeed, often supply tho place of cash among us, and maay an honest debt is paid in promises ; but the fact is, the grand bashaw and the . niernbera of Congress, or grand talkers of the nation, cither receive a yearly salary or aro paid by tho day." It requires no peculiar skill to detect the similarity between the way in which things were done in Congress in those days and now. Indeed, we have wonderfully improved on the old system. . We have largely increased the yearly pay of tho Con gressmen, and in addition have organized tho most gigantic and expensive pleasure excursions, in tha form of traveling committees, who spend the congressional vacation in visiting, at the expense of the Government, the most celebrated places for sight-seeing on the continent and the coast, and all in the name of "economy." We are much gratified at the efforts being put forth by Messrs. Fish & Barter to increase the sale of standard works like those of Washington Irving, and to learn that their efforts are proviog successful. If the youth of the city can only be persuaded to devote their Winter evenings to reading "Salmagundi," the "Sketch Book," and the "Aihambra," they will soon acquire a distaste for the trash which is circulated through the instrumentality of papers like the New York Weelrfy and Ledger. Evcry parent owes it to his children to place in their hands reading matter of substantial merit, and we are confident no money could be better spent in their behalf than in presenting them with the beautiful Knickerbocker Edition of Washington Irving. Fish & Barter will supply all orders with the greatest promptitude. Roberts BROTHEas have issue J their catalogue for their special trade

Their special sale closss on the" 15th of October. Jadge Robinson's Answer to rarer. Editors Journal : A Tax-Payer ia your paper of this morning, enquires of me, personally, why I have net had certain prisoner, four in number, now in jail, sent to the Penitentiary ? I answer briefly as follows : After prisoners have been convict ed and sentenced to the State Prison, it is the duty of the Clerk of the Court to make out a certified copy of the judgment and deliver it to tho Sheriff of the county, whose duty it is to con vey them to the State Prison. Thelaw on this subject is as follows: " Section i:. When 'any person is convicted and Beuteuced to imprisonment In the Hlate Prison, the Clerk must, without delay, canity, under the seal of tn court, a copy of th judgment to the sheriff. " (Section l;ij. Tne sherlll must, an soon as practicable, convey the convict to the State Prison, and deliver him to the keeper thereof, with tue copy of the judgment, and take from the kceter a receipt lor the convict." Hevised Statutes, Vol. 2, page S7S. I presume the Clerk and Sheriff have pertormed their duties iaK.hiulJy under this law. The Criminal Court begau a cession on the third Monday of last month (August), with the intention of having all tho prisoners then confined in jail tried, it continued in session a little over oue month, trying cases as parties were ready, and during that session tour persons were tounu guilty of felonies and sentenced to the State prison, tho la3t of that number having beeu tried and sentenced on last Saturday, tho 18th iust. The Sheriff does not take a prisoner and start for Jefforsonville the next day after he is convicted, for the Court being still in session, and other prisoners to be tried, he, like a sensible man, waits until the end of the session, so that ho can take them ail at one trip. . He informs me that he gets forty-five dollars for his mileage to Jeffersonvillo and back, if he has only one prisoner, and it he has four or a dozen even, ho gels no more mileage, but only the money which he pays out lor actual expenses of the prisoners on the journey. After prisoners are triad and sen tenced, the Judge has no control over them, except to see that the Sheriff does not make too many trips to Jeffersonville. In the act of 1SG0. establishing the Criminal Court irr this county, there is this proviso in section five, ;, "And persons convicted of relony in sncn, court, ana sentenced io hard labor lu the State Prison, shall be promptly remanded to the prison in which they tire sentenced to he conlined, I'rovided that when there are not more t.'iau three (3) convicts under Mien sentence at one time, they shall not hi forwarded to such prison until the end of the term at which they were convicted, imlem by order of said Court." Acts, lbd'J, page 10. . There Leing more than three (3) prisoners in jail under such sentence, the Judge of the Court has no control whatever, over them. The law is plain, and I have no doubt it will be faithfully executed. Very respectfully, A. L. Robinson, Evacsville, Sept. 22, 1SG3. Stcck im Qnio. The State Aud itor publishes returns showing that there are in Uhio 4tH,oi norses acainst 700,375 in 18G3; 1.402.5S1 cattle against 1.312.C06 in 1SG3; 25,020 mules agiinst 23,411 in 1SG8; 6,272,GiO sheep against 4,GSS,c4i in lboi; and 1,433,943 hogs agiinst 1,812,572 in 18C8. This statement shows that Ohio had in 18G8. 20.083 nioro cattle. 301 mere mules, 1,410,205 more sheep and 33G.G23 more hogs than are now returned for taxation. Tue Dctt ox Coal. Tho Philadelphia North American bewails the impending removal of the duty on coal which it now fears is inevitable. The coal operators and minora will have only themselves to thank for the repeal, if it Coraes. as it certainly ousht to. The North American itself admits that the present prices -of coal are wholly inexcusable. . , - t The cotton crop has safely passed the danger of the army-worm, boll' worm, &o., ice. It has been shortened at some po'nl3 by drouth; but the average yield is good, and the total rather over than under three million bales. The last point on which a Dime can be started - 13 reached "where can hands be found to pick so much cotton? "and it is undoubtedly true that ths yield will be less abundant and less valuable than it would be if every boll were taken in hand the moment it opened. Nevertheless, three miluon ot bale3 will be bagged; and that will pay the planters as much 3 though it were four, or evea five millions. Aew York Tribune. " - ..... 3J ST Sl ( 0 i.il -f-.
