Tne adjustment of the difficulties that at one timejthreatened togeffect a breach between the Liberals and Democrats f-of Cincinnati, has resulted in a decisive victory for the now happily united organizations. Had the little unpleasantness been carried te the polls, the Grant party would have@chiéved an easy victory. United we stand, divided we fall. -

Tue people of Evansville, taking a lesson from experience, have concluded to wholly discard party preferences in the election of city officers. Both parties have'agreed upon thig plan. The names of all the candidates will be piaced upon one ticket. Pencils will be in requisition on the day of election, to scratch off the nantes of individuals whom the voter does not want. . :

- Ox the first page of this week’s issue we publish the suggestion® of “Buckeye” in relation to the organization of a new party, or rather the consolidation of the anti-Grant elements. The suggestions therein set forth are worthy of consideration. A ¢onference composed of two hundred practical common sense statesmen and politicians, surely ought to result in something that would meet with a popular response from the MASSeS.

Tur Indianapolis Jowrnald intimates that a quarrel has existed for some time between Gov. Hendricks and Mr. E. S. Alvord, chairman of the Democratic State Central CQ_mmittee, and that the latter will resign his. position at the first meeting of the committee. There may be some truth about these rumors, but the Journal is not exactly the source from which to obtain authentic information of what is going on in the democratic ‘household. :

- It may accord with thé rules'g‘o'verning the legal fraternity, but to an “ unsophisticated outsider” it appears decidedly improper for ex-Gov. Baker to officiate as counsel in behalf of the liquor dealers. Baker recommended the passage of just such a law, and was one of the attorpeys to whom the Baxter bill was submitted before its passage. If he now turns around and for a big fee labors to overthrow the law,. it will lower the ex-Governor no little in the estimation of the people generally, without reference to their views upon the liquor question. :

Tur Democrats of Connecticut have for years struggled to obtain a majority in the Legislature, that steps might be taken to change the mode of electing legislators so as to do away with the “rotten borough system’ by which a Inere handful of voters were enabled to override the will of the people of more -populous districts., It is a source of regret that the Democrats did not quite suceeed dn securing a majority of the Senators, but perhaps ONE honest man may be found among their number who will be sufficiently fearless and independent to aid the Democracy in rembving that great wrong.

Tax-pavers generally will thank the State Sentinel for inviting their -attention to the fact that a “Congressman’s salary is now $7,500 per annum, but in the two years for which he receives $15,000, he is in actual service only about five months or 150 days, including Sundays, holidays and recesses. This pays him for such service as salaried men receive about $56.50 per day, or ten dollars an hour for actual ‘labor.— When it is considered that Congressmen are often made out of material which could not by their qualifications command positions that would pay %2 a day for actual service the year round, it is plain enough that the professions of candidates on any subject are entitled to no we?ht whatever. The interest involved in the office ig too great, especially when there is a chance at the end of service to double back pay. The farmer, who pays the greater part of these extravagant salaries and steals, would be g’hﬁ as a general thing, tocontract ten years hard labor in sun and storm, to say nothing about the rental {)l his hmz, to mnfe‘; the same amount of money.” " i

THE CONNECTICUT ELECTION. Success of the ll)en—l;;srauc Candidates. Connecticut elected a Governor and other State officers last Moﬁdhy; The: Democrats and Liberals were thoroughly united in the support of the State ticket; the platform upon which the canvass was conducted reaffirmed the principles of the Cin-cinnati-Baltimore platform, and contained an earnest appeal to the people to repudiate the actors in the disgraceful Credit Mobilier transaction. The returns from every town in the State, mostly official, give Haven, the republican candidate . for Governor, 39,337; Ingersoll, Democrat, 45,177; Smith, Temperance, 2,397. Ingersoll’s majority over all is thergfore 3,443, o The Legislature stands as follows: The Senate is 11 Republicans to 10 Democrats. TLast year it was 15 Republicans to 6 Denocrats. The House is 109 Republicans to 132 Damocrats. Last year, 130 Repub- } licans to 111 Democrats. : ‘ The majorities for candidates for Congress are reported: : 1.

Democrats elected their candidate for Governor by over 3,000 majority, the republican majority in the ‘State, on the congressional vote, exceeds 1,600. This leaves the result rather barren of political significance. No U. S. Senator is to be elected.

Cincinnati remained steadfast, and elected the Liberal-Democratic ticket by handsome majorities—the Mayor by 2,162. Cleveland, Dayton, CoJumbus, and Toledo elected democratic Mayors.

B | L r— -B— A Late Discovery. Mr. Geo. William Curtis, editor of Harper's Weekly, last week tendered his resignation as a member of the Civil Service Commission. He did this in consideration of President Grant’s-total disregard of the rules that were laid .down some time since for the government of tie administration in making appointments.— The re appointment of Collector Casey, the nomination of Mr. Sharpe of New York, and some others of a like character, was too much for Mr. Curtis. He deems these appointments a flagrant disregard ot civil service reform, and his resignation indicates that he has no faith in the President in that respect. Mr. Curtis could have noticed the same thing two years ago, but then—he didn’t want to!

Stamps on Bank Checks. ; "W, Douglass, Commissioner of Internal Revenue, decides that in case a person draws money from a bank for himself, the receipt form of check can be legally used, but otherwise the stamped check is required by the law ; or more clearly, where the signer and drawer of the check are one and the same person, the use of a re: ceipt is legally admissable, but in all other cases it is not. This settles the stamp question. Interested parties should be careful to observe the law as interpreted by the Commissioner.,

THE KENDALLVILLE POST ‘DFFICE. Eprror BANNER:—The Republicans had / quite 'aaﬁzfiz:givet} meeting. this ‘vening in Mitchell’s Hgf, called for the purpose of getting an expression of:the preference of the citizens of this city and vicinity in regard to their opinionsrelative to the manner in which C. O. Myers obtained the appointment-of Postmaster at this place. It appears that somehow,: through the mysterious interposition of Providence (for no human agency could have procured it for him on the ground of me{ixtal _qualification) he got ithe ap - pointment, and asthere was a wide-spread and éeneral féeling_ in opposition to his officiating in that eapacity, it was deem. ed n‘eéessary by certain members of the Yring rfor.policy’él sake, to make some show of respecting the wishes of the people in the matter, and white-wash as best they might, their treasonable actions in ‘ignoring their solemn pledges, and retain if possible, the immaculate C. O. M. as Postmaster, without tearing assunder be yond the hope of fatare reconciliation, the bonds of political unity that has so long enabled the “ring” to eat their bread and butter without expense to themselves. . 3

The meeting was duly organized accor ding to the rules and regulations made, and in such cases provided, where the result is previously ~determined. After a remark or two by the Chairman, C.O. came forward to make & statement explaining the mbdus operandi of getting the appointment, which was that he bad the power and used it, which every other aspirant would have done if he could, which was no doubt a very satisfactory expiax'mtiori to 'bimself, and the members of the “ring.” A set of resolutions were read, exonerating C. O. from obtaining his appointment by trick or device, which brought out quite a lively discussion on the merits of the case, the result of which, I opiue, were not very edifying to the “tbin shinned” editor. The question was finally put to a vote, and five or six ot the faithful said “aye,” upon which “it was decided that the character of. €. O. had been fully and satisfactorily vindicated from using any unlawful mears in connection with' the “little’ matter” of the Post Office, and the meeting Immedi ately adjourned séne. die. You will.no doubt hear of some lively times in this part of the country before long, “For, behold, what a great matter a little fire kindleth.” SPECTATOR., Kendallville, March 31, 1873. i

A Widow Lady Murdéred-by the JealS ous Wife of a Clergyman, s A horrible murder was committed at Eureka, 111, & town about 20 miles distant from Pcoria, on Saturday, March 29, The victim of this crime was a Mrs. Elizabeth Hedges, a widow with five children and a resident of Eureka, whose husband, David J. Hedges, was killed in that neigh~ borhood some six or seven-years ago by a man named Kingman, in a dispute about a fence boundary.The body of the murdered woman was discovéred Sunday morning in an unused railroad cut, the lower part of the fuce and neck having been eaten away by hogs. The throat had been cut and the head struck v&l'itrh a club or some similar heavy instrument. At the coroner’s inquest a letter was found pinned to the underclothing of the untortunate woman. This letter proved to have been avritten by Rev. T. C. Workman, a Methodist Minister, two weeks before, and revealed the fact that an intimacy existed between tlie Rev. gentleman and Mrs. Hedges. Suspicious circamstances in regard to Mrs. Works man, a woman_ of violent temper, caused a surmise that the crime was committed by her from jealousy She was brought | before the Coroner’s jury on Sunday, but fainted, and went from one fainting fit to another. Subsequently she confessed the murder of Mrs. Hedges. She says she did it in self-detence. ‘The’ general feeling is that Mrs. Workman, driven frantic by the discovery of her husband’s too intimate relations with the widow Hedges, in a fit of desperation kilted the suppos ed cause of her domestic misery. Sufficient facts have been developed to show that Workman was deeply in love with Mrs. Hedges ; that he was anxions for a separation trom his wife, who caused .bim much domestic unhappiness ; that Mrs. Hédges,who wasa pfeposscssing lady of forty, fully reciprocated the affectionate feelings of her pastor; that both expected some day to be united in the locks of matiimony and that an intimacy existed for some months. ’ Mrs, Workman isin jail, Her husband and eldest daughter are with her. Workman aéknowledges himself the cauge of all the difficulty. v Nobl_e County Agricultural ‘Society.

STATE TEMPERANCE CONVENTION. The temperance men bield a largely attended convention (in the city of Indianapoiis last week. The clergy especinlly appears to have been largely represented. Quite a diversity of .opinion secmed to exist, but the majority evidently was well satisfied with the achievements of last winter. The following preamble and resolutions were, after a protracted discussion, unanimously adopted : WHEREAS, An organized association has been - formed in the State tor the avowed purpose of resistiag or evading the law enacted at the last session of the Legislature, regulating the sale of intoxicating liquors ; and | Whereas, We, the men and women of Indiana, have for ycars past endured and peaceably submitted to the reigh of drunkenness, even in. communities where dram shops were forced upon us, regardless of an overwhelming public sentiment opposed to them, we all the while hopefully waiting for and patiently laboring to the attainment of a better state of society ; therefore, o : : iy

Resolved, That we recognize the late enactmert of our Legisluture as the dawn of the better day, and we hail-it asa grand advance in the right direction, and well adapted to the 'present emergency ; and we hereby tender our thanks to the Senators and Representatives who, with. out regard to party affiliation, carried the iweasure trinmphantly through the Leg-. islature, and to his Excellency, the Gov - ernnr, who gave it his official sanction. Resolved, That we do not recognize in ‘that provision of the law which permits the keeping of a tippling bouse where a majority demands them an acknowledg‘ment of any natural right to maintain such a place of drunken resort, but rather a liberal congession to the spirit of our American institutions, which demand the popular support in order to secure the en forcement of law, Resolved, That we accept the challenge of the liquor dealers to make this dram shop question an issue before the people at the next election; and we thank them for taking the initiative in this movement, and pledge them that, sinking all mipor considerations, we will be glad to meet them at the polls on this issue alone. Resolved, That as the good "effect of law depends on its faithful execution, we now, and here, pledge ourselves to aid the proper authorities by all lawful means in our power in the enforcement of this statute against ull offenders, and we earnestly solicit the co-operation of all the temperance organizations 1n the State in a united effort to sustain the law. _ Resolved, That we are greatly encouraged by the hearty support with which this law has met throughout the State from all good men and women without distinction of political partics or religious peculiarities. i L Resolved, That we invoke the aid of all ldw abiding citizens in. our effort to defeat the machinations of a monied organization which seeks to sacrifice the public good to promote private interests. Resolved, That we recommend a thorough organization of all the friends of law and order in each county in the State, and a general co-operation of these several or—ganizations sb' as to secure unity and con- ‘ cert of action in the good work, 'i
