rcBUsusaBTtui JLornnt Htrt. vtTtll. FRIDAY. ...DECEMBER 3, 11W Madison County, Ky., has shipped over 10,000 hogs thus far this Eeason.-. V.'r. are indebted to lion J. L. Alcoas,of Mississippi, for a copy of hia address .to 'the people of that State previous to tbe election. General Alcorn is oaj of tho strongest men in the South, and his address is characterized by 'all that rigor of thought and expression for -ffhich he is noted. TnE opening of the Pacific Railroad has carried with it such a volume of greenbacks that tho people of California have come to lite them. As evidence of this vra find that the Central Pacific Company instructs its a"eats to receive, in all cases, greenbacks rather than gold; indeed, that "coin will not ba accepted at any fisuro-" ' ' One of those delightful dirioeM of Djlmonico's, the thought of which . creates visions of ioast turkey, mountains of delicious cakes, and myriads of other delicacies, was participated iu by the ladies and gentlemen of the Nisv York press on Saturday evening last. Greeley, Mr. and Mrs. James Parton, Samuel Brooks, Pfccebe Cary, "VVhitelaw Held, Mary Ames, M. M. Pomoroy, Mrs. Ci-oly (Jennie June), Alice Cary,Carleton, DeLeon, Brown, Colburn, and a host of others were present, and, if reports bo true, did ample justice to the good things before them. Oliver Johnson presided. Speeches were made," toasts drank, and a general good time had. . Everything Is LOTeJv! Oar jolly friend, Bob Spkocle, is pleased Co correct a "most grievous misapprehension" on the part of the Courier, as to the state of affairs at the Capital. This misapprehension is inferred from the fact that the Courier " regretted exceedingly to see a disposition among the Democracy of IndianatJi3 to quarrel among themselves." The robust Robert aforesaid says, in his card, that in all his experience of twenty-five years, he never knew the Democracy of Indianapolis-leaders and masses fo be so thoroughly united as at the present time. In fact, everything is lovely and the goose hangs high. As to whether this Democratic goose is cooked or not, Robert docs not inform us. We presume it is. As proof positive of the harmony which prevails, we copy the following paragraph from Roe iat's card: If you had been present at our convention lat Saturday, and marked the unanimity that prevailed there, . despite the strenuous efforts of the ao-nal'ed Democratic organ, tho Sen- . tinel, to sow the seeds of dissension and discord, you would acknowledge the truth lof my statement. I will not follow tho pernicious example of the Sentinel in publishing family socrets, much less its most uncalled for . and most unusual attack upon good and staunch Democrats a coarse violation of every principle of journalismbut 1 will say that tho Democrats of Indianapolis have unusual privileges cf judging and discerning tho course and conduct of the. men connected with their party organ, so-called, and that they claim tho right, which they concede to their brethren in other portions of the State, of deciding who Bhall be their delegates in the State Convention, without being lectured ' for so doing. If the organ has lost their confidence, they can tell the reasons why, and may be compelled to do so. The leaders and masses of ihe Democracy of Indianapolis have no move disposition to quarrel than the Democracy of Evansville, and their Tight to judge whether they prefer to send Thomas A. Hendricks and Joseph E. McDonald to R. J. Bright and Joseph J. Bingham to represent them in the State Convention is certainly clear and undisputed. I repeat there is no quarrel it don't rise to the digiity of a quarrel among the Demociats of Indianapolis. On the one hand are trusted leaders and patriotio masses of the Democracy on tht other is the Sentinel and its less than baVer'a dozen of nobodies, 1 Bcraped acl brought together with much labcz, expense and tribulation, for the pr rposa of givinu out the impression that there is a division whre nonoxcxists. The harmony of a party at war with its principal newspaper the State " oriran i3 one of those conditions which can only be understood by ex pert and experienced politicians like Robert. We presume the dissensions of the Indianapolis Democracy are like "harmonious discords" in mu sic, sometimes introduced to produce 8 peculiar' effect. Perhaps as in the case of Judge Robinson's appoint ment the. whole thing is profound strategy, for tho purpose of lulling the Republicans into a feeling of con fide nee that will beget relaxation of effort and insure defeat. We know not. We cannot tell. In the meantime, however, to clear up tho difficulties, we turn again to the columns of the Sentinel, and we . , .. ... una mere an, interesting article on " The Little Thimble Rigger," which wo append. If we understand this article, it is deiigaed to convey the impression that tho selection of dele gates to the Democratic State Convcn Uon, is a ttumDie-nggmg operation, in which success depends upon the expertness of the jugglers. Wo think the Sentinel is about right in this, and that its remarks will apply to more conventions than thoso held in Indianapolis. Bat, without enlarging on this poict, we j've- tho Sentinel editorial as a combat cm Robert's idea of " unanimity:" From the State Sentinel ' THE LITTLE TIIIilELE-HIGOEIt. On last Saturday the Democracy of Center Township, Marion County, by tho deposit of fiity-oue printed tickets in a hat, selected a delegation to tho State Convention to represent about three thousnnd eight hundred voters. W. II. Talbott, Esq., managed the affair, and it would not be worthy of public notice except that seme one in his interest telegraphed the matter

abroad, in advance, a3 a contest between the Hendricks riea and the

Pendleton men, the latter 'led by oar humble- self, for the control" of 'the State Central Committee. , Wc were in New York City at the time, and were not a little surprised, on our way home, to see in the Philadelphia Sunday Mercury the foHowing dispatch: . ' "TROTTBI.R A3IOXO THE IXDrAJIA DEJtCC- . BACV. ' " Dispatch to tbe Evening Telegraph. -"Indianapolis, November 27. There Is a'nice Utile right otng ou quietly bet ween the idendricttsaud Feudieiou wings ot the Democratic party In this Hunts. Both parties ate striving tor theeontrol of thebiate Convention wtiich meets here In January, and the State Central Committee. Tue .Pendleton wing is led by it. J. Bright, of tbe Heniinel, who Is a canuldate for the cualrniansmp of tueCormnii tee, and Gen, John Love i put forward as toe representative of the Hendricks wius. The former claim a victory in the reHisal of the com mittee to pOBtpoue the Btate Convention from January to June, and feel confident of their ability to carry their points, but Hendricks is a sly Old fox, and will doubtless out-general his opponents." We had been advised for gome weeks that a "ring" movement was on foot to pack the delegation against us, and it was urged that we should take steps to counteract the movement, which we declined to do. We confess that we did cot think the little -"thimble riggjr " would -have the impudence to telegraph such a falsehood. ' It is well known here at home that we are not a candidate for Chairman of the Committee or any other position, and it i3 equally well known that the. most friendly relations exist between Air. Hendricks and ourself. The whole movement is prompted by tho personal hostility of Mr. Talbott, growing out of business matters that transpired before we purchasod the Sentinel. Soon after the purchase. ha called uponts to inquire what course the paper would-pursue towards him, evidently fearing an attack. He was assured that nothing personal against him should appear in tho paper, unless it became necessary for the good of the party, and not then without giving him notice and tendering the columns to answer. Since that time he has omitted no opportunity to stab the Sentinel, and had he confined himself to mere personal effort, his enmity might have passed unnoticed; but when he drags the matter before the public and endeavors to create the impression that there is a division cf the Democracy ia Indianapolis a majority of whom be heads as against the Sentinel' when, in fact, there is no division, we deem it oar duty to ventilate, "little man's" history, end also to give an account cf the peculiar management that resulted in fifty-one votes selecting a delegation for three thousand eight hundred voters. - A dapper V little man' of this city was known in his early career as the 'little Reheat," which cognomen he earned by makiug, or causiDg to be made, a faro box, containing a cheating apparatus, and inducing his benefactor, the man who had furnished him the money to learn his trade and start in business, to deal with the false box, while the " little man" and others bet against the game. One of the others, a comparative stranger to the benefactor, becamo ashamed of tho game and exposed it. The game was for ten cent checks, and the dealer lost but a few hundred dollars, but that was . a large sum for that day. Soon after, becoming suddenly and unexpectedly rich, and it being no longer respectable to be engaged in ten cent faro, tho " little man" turned his attention to politics, in which career he was known ior a long time as "Jew Isaacs of York." In a community where he is so well known and appreciated, it is unnecessary for us to refer to tho history of Y. II. .Talbott as a partisan, and to his smart tricks, private room caucusses and. button-hole dickeriegs, by which agencies ha has attained a little notoriety as a ward politician, nor to the jobs and contracts he has obtain ed through party influences. . By promising to uavote tue emoluments of the position to the advancement of the interests of his party he disclaiming any desire for the office but the honor it conferred nis enorts culminated in his election to tho Presidency of the Sinking i tind and New York Gold Gambling. After a brief retirement -from poli tics, during which period IVlr. lalbott did not contribute one cent to the Democratio cause, notwithstanding tho effort of tho Democracy to elect Mr. Hendricks Governor, he suddenly turns up as the "little thimble rig ger, ana noius a private caucus ot live or six dependents and a lew respectable gentlemen, upon whom he had imposed by telling that Tom Cottrell had made up a "riDg" ticket, and it was necessary to beat it with a " ring." Mr. Cottrell's card, published elsewhere, will shofv how much truth there was in his story, and the means to which he will resort to make his trickery successful. We can assure the Democracy of the State that there is no division in Marion County, but the party is a unit, anxious to be organized against the common enemy for success in 1870. Baltimore and. Ohio Eallroad Its BclatloBS to the West. In answer to the inquiries of the Secretary of the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce, Vico President Kisa, of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, has written a letter, which will be found of special interest to our produce shippers and merchants generally. Although it ia specially addressed to the business men cf Cincinnati, it is peculiarly applicable to Evansville. We make the following extracts from Mr. Kino's letter : - The geographical advantages of Baltimore, as compared with other large cities on the Atlantic seaboard, to Cincinnati and the West and Southwest, are shown by the following comparison of distances: From Cincinnati to Baltimore, 5S3 miles. From Cincinnati to Philadelphia, by the shortest line, CG3 miles. From Cincinnati to New York,- by the shortest line, 714 miles. From Cincinnati to New York, by the longest line, SS4 miles. It will thu bo seen that Baltimore i3 nearer to Cincinnati than Philadelphia by eighty miles, and is nearer to Cincinnati than New York, via the shortest line, by one hundred and fifty-sis miles, and by the line via Buffalo and the New York Central, by two hundred and ninety six miles. The Baltinacro and Ohio Company, in connection with tho Marietta and Cincinnati Company, has availed of these advantages, by establishing and generally rraintaining rates to and from the West, in favor cf Baltimore as compared with Philadelphia, oa .East bound freights. . ?2 52 $1 $1 per ton, and on West bound freights, S2-S2 $2 $1 per ton. A3 compared with New York - r- ft i . differcrces in lavor ci Baltimore are Etill Eiora Kiart-u, ua jjss oouna freights beiujr. as follows : f 12 ii2$2 per ton, and on Weft bound freights ?5 S4 ?4 ?3 per ton. .-.1 l .J I.Ti t ,

In response! to your inquiry as to. facilities, I remark ' That within the past two yeare cars especially built to run; through without break of - bulk 6r change to Cin-cinnati.-Indianapolis, &c, have been built,' and the great objection heretofore existing to the route, because of transferring freights at Parksburg, is now corrected.-' These cars are loaded in the Western cities,, and the contents unloaded at the doors of the warehouses in Baltimore, or at the station of the company, and in cases

where the produce is designed for foreign shipment, upon the pier of the company generally .regarded as the beit arranged, a3 they are certainly the most extensive, .ia the United States 'directly alongside of the vessel, thus securing the minimum cost of handli d storngeaud securing the greatest practical economy. The Baltimore and Ohio Company, in connection with the North German Lloyd, has established a line, of four first-class steamships between Bremen and Baltimore,- stopping at Southampton going and returning. One of these" steamers leaves Bremen and Baltimore - each lortnight, and have brought to Baltimore daring the eighteen months the line has been in operation large numbers of emigrants, manv of whom would, under other circumstances, have gone "to New York, and from thence to the North west: but with the superior arrange ments as to ocean transportation and cheap transportation upon our system n -l r j i w .1. OI railways, lounu liumts iu ouuiueru Ohta and Indiana. These facilities also have attracted to this city through Cincinnati, lin mense quantities of tobacco, cotton, and other products, whichto a great extent, formerly found outlets to J&u rop3 at New Orleans. The success of . --. i i the Uremen line is. already bo wen assured that the owners are now con fiidering the propriety of adding four more steamships, thus affording a weeklv steamer from each port. Three steamships belonging exclu sively to this company have hereto fote been run in the lino between Baltimore and Liverpool. The Bal timore and Ohio Company has been engaged recently in-some important negotiations, looking to the placing nron this route four first class new iroQ Bteamers, each of three thousand toni capacity; and we have delayed responding to your communication in the exDectation ot beinz ante to an nounce the consummation oi mese negotiations. ' T" We are now pleased to advise that a preliminary agreement has been made which will insure this object, so imDortant to your city as well ai to this community. . . Similar arrangements for trade to Charleston, Savannah, Wilmington, Norfolk, Petersburg and Richmond, as well as Havana, have been supplied by Baltimore enterprise, in some instances assisted by tbe Baltimore and Ohio Company, and these lines ore all flourishing, paying in mostl cases fair dividends to the shareholders, besides brinzinz to the city, as a point of dis tribution, cotton, rico. sugar, naval stores, tobacco, and other products of tho South, and returning laden with goods imported by our Kuropean steamers, and with grain, provisions, &o.. the products ot tho great West. Perhaps in no other respect has the advantages of a system of low, and what was regarded when established as unremunerative. rate3 produced creator or more important results than in the interchange of this busi ness tbrocch Baltimore, between the Southern, coastwise cities and the cities of tho West, particularly Cin cinnati. But a few years ago nearly all this traffic was sent via New York, and transported nearly three hundred miles by rail and a considerable dis tance by water, further than it is now transported via Baltimore. The rates arc correspondingly lower than those previously charged via New York. Hi8h Keport or tho Fort Branch School. We, the Board of Education, bein? present at the' examination, on the 23th and 26th of November, 1SG9, were highly pleased with the method of teaching pursued by Prof. A. M. Bryant. Principal. The pupib in the various classes showed, unmistakably, that the instruction had been thor ouih.'At the close of .the examina tion, each Dupil received a card, show ing the class, standing, deportment and attendance, which compared fa vorably with that ot any other school in' the county. The Board questioned most of the classes on the difficult parts of the subject under considera tion, and in nearly every case the an swers wero prompt and satisfactory Friday afternoon was chiefly de voted to declamation and the reading ot essays, some or which were ot quite a superior cast. At the close or this exercise, speeches were made by Br, Joseph Neely, President of the Board ; baml. Li. JJorsey, Vr. J. Lt. JJow, lev T. M. Strain, Key. W. E. Davis and others. The Intermediate Department is in charge of Mr. Zachary T. Emmerson. Part of the Board visited this room, and were much pleased to see with what promptness the pupils responded to any questions asked them. The Primary Room, is under the care of Miss Nan llosborough. and embraces on its roll sixty-nine schol ars. Miss. II. gave proof positive of her ability, and wo should be pleased to see her advanced to a higher poai uon. . connected with the - school is a Lyceum, which holds weekly sessions. Pror. Bryant is the presiding othcer. I' nday mgnt being their regular meet ing, the proceedings were made pub lie, and the large and commodious room of the Academic Department was hlled to overno'.ing with well pleased auditors. Before the debate commenced, half an hour was spent in calisihenic exercises, giving the different sounds of the letters, and reading various kinds of composition, witn ine tones appropriate to the subject. WTe feel proud of our School, and would recommend parents and sruardians to send their children to it The number of pupils in attendance the rast term was 1W3. The next term will commence Mon day.
