TEBXESDAY, MAKCII 30, 1SI0. WARD MEETINGS. Wednesday KTcnlnj. S'-venth Ward. raradiso Garden. Eighth Ward. To ho arsnouncod to-morrow. jNinth Ward. Col Grill's grocory on ilain Street. There will bo music at all these meetings. It is expected that good Challenging and Rallying Committees will ho appointed and such other business transacted as will aid in the eucccsj of the ticket. MASS MEETING! There will be a Mass Meeting, of the Republicans of the city at NATIONAL HALL, TUIRSDAY EYEXIXB, MARCH 31st. There will bo Speeches and Music. Let every Republican attend. Republicans may be expected, during the few days preceding, and on the day of election, to meet with many offers to swap votes. The De mocracy have no hope of electing their city ticket, and they will con centrate all their efforts upon Coun cilmen. They will, no dofubt, offer to exchange any candidate on their city ticket for a vote for a Democratic Councilman. We warn Republicans against such exchanges. Vote the whole ticket. Abovo all things, do not sacrihco any councilman lor a candidate on our city ticket. Look ' alter the Councilmen, and the city ticket will take care of itself. Let it be remembered that the real contest is on the Councilmen. The following dispatch was rcceiv ed Sunday night from Indianapolis: "The German Republicans are dlsalls fled Willi the nominations made yestordy for county oflicem by tbe Republican convention, and a maw convention of Her man will probably he held tills week to form another Ucaet." That is tho way to do ic. Tho radical leaders, in view of the negro vbto next fall, arc already throwing off nnon the German voters. Tho Ger mans will generally be tricked out of the rjdical party, whenever it is found there is a strong negro element Verv well. Tho radicals will have - abundant leisure to repent of their lolly at a very early day. Lourxer. We presume the above paragraphs were written before the assembling of the Democratic Convention on Monday night. Certainly the editor would not have been so foolish as to write them with the action of tho Convcn tion staring him in the faco. Where are tho Germans on the Democratic City Ticket? How does it hap pen that, while the Irish element cf tho party, polling but a small minority of its votes, have three or .'our candidates, the Germans har i but one, that of Assessor, at tho tail end of the ticket? We presume the Germans, who constitute the bulk of the Democracy in this city, can hardly fail to discover this gross injustice. If the Marion county Re publicans treated the Germans of their parly unfairly, what shall be said of the Evansville Democrats who have served their German allies in tho same way? Will the German Democrats manifest the same spirit exhibited by the German Republicans of Marion County, and call their leaders to an account for their treachery and unfairness? If they do not do so, we presume they will quietly take satisfaction by scratching some of the candidates who have been forced upon them by the party ringleaders. Bcah on Democratic Leaders. Dr. M. J. Bray ha3,for years been a leading member of tho Democratic party. lie has contributed more money and spent more time to secure its success than any one connected with the Courier, which now gravely reads him out of the party. We regret to notice, also, that tho Courier is not satisfied with Mr. John A. Reitz, the Democratic candidate for Councilman in the Sixth Ward. The crime committed by these two Democrats is that they feel an interest in the growth and prosperity of the city, and consequently are anxious that Water Works should be constructed, and took part in a small meeting of citizens called together by the Council to examine into that subject. We copy the Couriers attack upon Dr. Bray, in full: Were there no other persons than Dr. Bray and John A. Reitz at the water works meeting at tho bank parlor? It seems to us that there were a number ot others there and not another Democrat, and that some of the others were and arc members of the present banking and bond-holding City Council. They wanted the monopoly of the water works stock, and wanted Dr. Bray's money to help se cure the monopoly, and the Doctor with plenty of bonds, bank stock, real estate, etc., is ever ready to "go in where he has a sure thin,; ot doubling his money. Although the Doctor is regarded as a sound Democrat, ho is no officeholder or office-seeker now, and seldom attends Democratic meetings, lie, for many years, held a lucrative office, a perfect sinecure, under a Democratic administration, and was a zealous and working Democrat then. He is worth a ereat deal more money now, and, as " birds of a feather flock together," his associations have somewhat changed, and he now runs with bankers, and bondholders, and would just as soon make ten or fifteen thousand dollars a year out of the people, through water works, as any other way. Dr. Bray very innocently thought, perhaps, tho city was not able to build the water works, and he and a few friends could. We think tho thing settled now that tho city will build the works and own them. We understand that Mr. John A. Haney, another prominent Democrat, wa3 at that Water Works meeting. But why does the Courier attack Dr. Bray and overlook Mr. J ohn A. Reitz. Dr. Bray is not a candidate for coun-

'cil. Mr. Reitz is a candidate: It will

be remembered, also, that Dr. Bray, in the meeting held at the Bank, proposed that the city construct the Water Works. Mr. lleitz amended this proposition, by suggesting that it would be better for the city to take two-fifths of the ttock. and the citi zens, in their individual capacity, me other three-fifths.. Now, for tho life of us, we can not see why the Courier should read Dr. Bray out of the party as a "monopolist," "bond holder" and "bank stoek holder," nnd yet retain Mr. Iweitz in full fellowship. If either of the men arc endangering the peace and prosperity of the Democratic party, or proving recreant to its principles, it seems to us Mr. Kcilz is the offender. Yet he is running for an office, in which, should he be elected, he will have every opportuni ty to carry out the nefarious scheme to which he ha3 already committed himself, if, as the Courier charges the scheme recommended by Mr, Reitz at the preliminary water works meeting, is nefarious. The Couriers inconsistency is so glaring that it can not fail to disgust its own readers. They can not fail to see the injustice of attacking Dr. Bray for a proposi tion that originated with Mr. J ohn A. Reitz. If the proposition is so inimi cal to the best interests of the people, and is so anti-Democratic, we can not seo how the Courier can support lis author for Councilman. But the truth is, this is another of those pitiful and puerile attempts of the Courier to make party capital out of a matter that ought not to bo influ enced by party politics in any shape. The attempt, like many of it3 prede cessors, will amount to nothing, be cause it is so transparent the dullest voterl in tho city can readily see through i As We Expected. On the tenth day of last December, the Journal contained the following paragraph with reference to the Cour icr's attack upon the Sunday hws: " Let the Courier party pass reso lutions. at its City. State and County Conventions, in favor of the abroga tion of all Sunday laws. We dare tho candidates of that party to make that the issue at the next City and County elections. Wo dare the State Convention to pass a resolution of that character. We do not believe that the editor of the Courier will so much as daro to present a resolu tion of that character for tho consid eration of the Conventions." In responso to this challenge, the Courier of the 12th, contained the following. " WE will seo to it that resolutions are passed in our local Conventions against the law now in existence, un der which men aro fined for selling beer and cigars on the Sabbath day." Well, "WE" was President of the Democratic Local Convention on Monday evening. Why didn't "wo "see to it that resolutions wero passed against the law now in distance," as we promised, was it Because two or three of the Democratic candidates have mounted "temperance" and "church " hobby3 in order to rido into the Counoil? Our only object in referring to this matter, is to demonstrate what we charged at the cutiet, that the whole huo and cry of tho Courier against the Grand Jury and the Sunday laws, was a paltry trick for the purpose of humbugging a few week minded Republicans. The trick is now most effectually "exposed. From the Kockport Democrat, IStli. The State vs. Louisa Croud. This case which created so much excitement last September in our neighboring city of Evansville, was tried here in our Circuit Court last woek, on change of venue from Vanderburgh County, and resulted, after four days of patient and careful examination, in a failuro of the jury to agree. Eight for acquittal and four for conviction. The defendant was indicted with one Henry Cramer, a merchant of Evansville, on charge of combining with said Cramer and one Sarah Ruger, to poison th3 wife, of Cramer. The State was represented by Captain W. P. Hargrave, Srosecuting attorney for the Vanerburgh Criminal Court, and by L. Q. & U. A. DeBruler, of this place, and the defendant was ably represented by Sudge Tarrett, Col. Buchanan, Gen. Saackelford, Col. Azro Dyer, Col. Denby, and 'Squire McBride of Evansville, an array of legal talent seldom, if ever before, massed on one side of a law suit. The principal witness for the State, a woman known as Sarah Ruger, told her long and strange story in an easy, calm and connected manner. Listening to her wonderful, and, we may add, almost incredible romance ot criminal horror, we were carried back in our imagination to tho dark days of Lucretia Borgia, the queen of poisoners. "Plot, counter-plot, treason, stratagems and spoils" was played to perfection by the defendant, prosecuting witness and Cramer, if the statements of Ruger were true. But fortunately for the defendant Crouel, the woman of the "mysterious patent" overdone the swearing part, and in her encounter at the close of the evidence with Capt. Cochran on the witness stand, completely spoiled her ingeniously arranged romance of lovo and intended murder. The calm and reasonable statements of the beautiful witnefs "Dora" had a powerful impression on the minds of the jury. Tho interest in the cause from day to day seemed to increase among our citizens, and after the arguments of counsel pro and core, and tho final submissive of the cause upon instructions from his honor, Judgo Jones, the excitement was intense. The settled opinion of a large majority was in favor of acquittal, but many believed the verdict would be guilty, while some concluded the fury would fail to agree, as they did. Prosecuting Attorney Hargrave opened the cause for the State in a three hours' speech, which did him much credit as a State's Attorney. He was followed on behalf of tho defense by Col. Buchanan in a two and a half hours' speech of great logic, and eaptivatingly eloquent. Tho Colonel showed himself to be an ablo criminal lawyer, a pleasant debater and r gentleman of retentive mernorv. Jndge DeBruler then followed in one ot his most powerlul efforts, and for three hours made tho fur fly from the backs of Crouel, Hobbs & Co. No awver ot our acquaintance know better how to wield a sarcastic tongue than Judge DcBrulor. indeed we

may safely say, that Judge DeBraler has no superior in Southern Indiana as a practical, keen, Ehrewd lawyer. But with all hia eloquence and biting sarcasm, he i3 unable to make the "worse appear the better cause" always. Hence his failure to obtain a verdict of guilty against the woman whom he termed " older than the north star, and uglier than hell's off 02." Mr.

1 arrctt then followed, closing thediscussion in a three ana a halt hours speech, for the defence. His speech was a calm, dignmed and able one. Briefly and to the point, touching upon all tho dangerous points and mis sing links in the chain of evidence lor the State, and iullv elaborating the prominent and strong points for the defense, liis SDeech. coupiea wun the confidence our people have in him as a legal gentleman, had its enects upon the jury, and greatly influenced them in refusing to return into court a verdict of guilty. Taking this case al together, we are compelled to say tnai is is one of the most singular cases in tho historv of criminal Jurisprudence we ever heard of; and if true, as detail cd by the "fat witness linger, exceeds anvthinff we ever read 01 in the Arab ian nichts entertainment. or 01 me travela of Baron Munchausen. The jury were in their room Irom 4 o'clock p. sr. until about 1 A. M. next morning, when the judge nnding thev could not aeree. discharged them The defendant then gave can ior ner . .. 1 - 1 1 future appearance, and the cause was continued until the September term of the court. Thus ended the present chapter in tne History 01 mis singular . . - . 1 .Pit f 1 drama. Ellzabcthtown & Paducah Railroad. The length of thi3 road, from Eliz abethtown to Paducah, is 185 miles. The cost ot building and equipping the road is estimated at o,lU,UW. Of this sum, the counties along the line of the road have subscribed their bonds to the amount of only $2,7ii, 000: and individuals have taken stock to the amount of $320,000, ma king a total of S3,0U5,00O. lhe Company therefore propose to borrow $3,000,000 to complete the ioad; and to mortgage the road and its franchise, and all its property, of every kind and character, which it now possesses or may hereafter pos sess. to secure this loan. To carry this into effect, they have executed a mortgage to two trustees Eckstein Norton and Pbilo C. Cal houn, of New York, under date March 1st, lbiU, and have issued bonds to the amount of $3 00U.00O, payable in lbUO, bearing eignt pe cent, interest. That they will be able to get this money is, we think, likely; and that they will then be able to complete the road with it. is probable. Whether, however, the road will bo able to pay the interest on this f 3,000. 000 for twenty years, and af terwards pay the principal, and thus save the road to the stockholders, is a matter in which the several counties which have taken tbe stock have a deen in terest. The tax-payers of Paducah and McCracken county have an in terest ot half a million in it, with taxes to bo paid for many long weary years until the half million is finally paid. Will tho road ever pay this half million, or will the tax payers of Pa ducah and McCracken county have to payitr 1 hat is the question. Without farther investigation the matter, we are jiot prepared to answer. We confess that we have many misgivings on the subject, but havo too much to attend to at this time to give it that degree of consideration which it deserves. We hope, however, in a short time, to be able to look fully into the matter. Paducah Herald. Frcm the Philadelphia Ledger. Ihe New Presses of the London Times. The London Timts has recently put in operation in its office the new "Walter printing press," and it is now printed on four of these improved machines, which were designed and manufactured in its own establishment, and have been patented both in England and in tbis country. The "Walter press," (so named in honor of the proprietor of the Times), is a machine that prints from a roll of paper instead of from sheet as is done by the Hoe printing press. It prints on both sides of the paper by the same process; afterwards cutting the same into sheets and delivering them in piles. In the foregoing respects it ia similar to the Bullock printing machine, excepting that in the latter the cutting is tho hrst process, whilst in the "Walter press" the cutting being the last, the use cf a great deal of intricate machinery necessary to move the sheet through and deliver them from the machine is dispensed with, lessening the liability to accident. The "Waiter press" also dampens its own paper, and receiving a roll as it comes from the mill, it wets, prints and cuts it, manufacturing by one process a complete newspaper. Thia new machine runs at a speed of 12,000 copies, printed on both sides, per hour, and includingstoppagcs it prints from 10,000 to 11,000 copies per hour. One hand and two boys runs it, the latter inspecting and counting the sheets as they arc delivered. The wasto of paper is stated at one quarter of one per cent., while tho register is said to be practically perfeot. The chief merits of the machine, however, are announced to be its saving of time aad expenses of working items of great moment in a largo newspaper office. The daily edition of the London Tims is from G0.000 to 05,000 newspapers of sixteen and occasionally twenty pages each. The edition is now printed on four of these presses, run by four men and eight boys, with two pressmen to superintend them, fourteen persons in all, and printing over 40,000 sheets an hour. They print the edition in one half the time and with one fifth the number of hands required by the machines previously in use. In making the change from the eld to the new system, the Times reduced its press-room expenses ju3t one-half, the pay-roll being ?500 in gold a week, or $25,000 a year less for 1S70 than for 1809, whilst its savings in the waste of paper is $200 in gold per week or $10,000 per year, an aggregate saving at the rate of $35,000 per year. Although the Times is printed upon thick, strongpaper.it is said that the press dce3 its work as rapidly and completely with the thin paper in use for printing American newspapers. CARRIAGES. J. 15.
