which the latter took no ex
evidently satisfied to let the express its preference for

st. arcd a communication in which meanest kind of insinuations , i indulged in against tho Sheriff, :, at once, began to thow his i . eth. It took him but a few days to co i nnco that paper that it had " v ked up tho wrong passenger," and ye iterday it "bowed and scraped" and at: mpted to npologizo and play tho U. ; ih Hecp generally, in a manner that was as amusing 33 it must havo ten humiliatinR. Wo copy an inv.n sting paragraph on this point: Tho JorSNAL. asks why the Courier rmits" anonymous correspondents i 1 -ssail the integrity of its own pirty , ,S:ial.

Tho case in point cited, is
'.: t of tho communication of "Uiti- ," in Saturday'a Courier, which :ie persons very gratuitously conied to have reference to Sheriff ler. t then copies an apologetic explar, .'ion from tho correspondent who ?vr to the offensive insinuations in the r t place, and adds: Yo hope, in view of tho plain state i nts cf "Citizen," that wo are roi red from tho insinuation made by i t JOURNAL that the Courier has ; -mittcd "anonymous correspondents i assail tho integrity" of Democratic . cials. As an answer to the inucadoes of ?' 5 Journal, and in explanation of r own position, we desire to say that ; j G'trur h the advocato of no man 1 office. We shall support tho mocratic nominee for Sheriff, be it man Sheriff Miller, Mr. Ferry, Williamson, or any other gentlo.n co-operating heartily with the raocratio party. Again, the Journal asks: "Doe : Courier dare to assert that Sheriff Her is vol an " honest, faithful, re bio business man?" By no means. Wo certainly shonld t dare to assert that "Sheriff Mil- " was not an honest man, when we lieve him to be as honest and faithl as a man can be true to his ends who have done business with ; o even to the extent of refusing to ail himself r.f tho bankrupt law, as

In conclusion, wo beg leave to ai tro our very solicitous LocuU Street i oighbor, that wo do not Ceo any " squabble in- the ranks of tho Deoioo- . icy" in Vanderbursh County, for 10 Sheriffalty or any other offico. hen the Democratic Convention cets, all elements will be harrco ized, and the nominees will all bo 'eoted. So, neighbor, give yourself no un- . isiness. This is all very nice, but unfortuately for the editor and his deolaraons, a communication, signed "Five 'cmocrats," appears on tho last pa;e f tho sma paper, which spoils the pology and upsets the editor's t ta'e lonts. We commend to the most arious attention of the editor the ommunioation in his own paper. Will o hied tha admonition of the fivo )emtcrats? A CORRECTION, o the EUitors of the Courier. Will you favor us with an inscrion of what we thick is a correction f the impression necc.-sarily convey:d by the communication of ' Citizen," n your paper. Wc havo felt that the impression would go out from thos communications, that, because Sheriff Miller went into the offico under unfortuitous circumstances, financially, he was nnt and is not a fit candidate fur the office. This was the inference to bo drawn by the first article and was not eradicated by ihe second. On this account we nsk to make a few statements.
Wo believe that no one who ha

Tne rule was finally read, after Butler h1 pronounced the statement of Farnsworth, as malicious, fxls and infamous, and tbe statement alluded t by Farr s wort li, was rea1 which showed that Butler bad argued the case before tbe Supreme Court, in January 1H;, for which he had received a lee of I2.0CW.
