The Last Sensation.
ANew York dispatch of the 23d inst, says that "the newspapers are very hot to-day in denouncing the new play, "Black Friday," produced at Niblo's last night. The plot is the story of Fisk, Stokes, and Mrs. Mansfield's transactions. The play is in four acts, and roves through from the Stock Exchange to Mrs. Mansfield's, the cabin of the steamer Bristol, and the Erie Railway offices,
closing with tbe iwa&wlqatJon of VnaM'
In the steamboat scene, figures are carefully made up, counterparts of Greeley, Vanderbilt, Jay Gould, Henry Clews, and other well-known persons. The character of Fisk is rendered quite heroic. During the play he gives away about $500,000 in brick houses and other presents, always stipulating that no public mention shall be made of his charities. Stokes is depicted as an utterly black-hearted villain and forger, which in consideration of his awaiting trial, is one of the points most objected to. The Tribune calls Niblo's a public sewer, and other journals assault this fresh degradation of the drama. The managers of,Niblo's print a defensive card this evening, rebuking the press for its abusive criticism, after so freely filling their-columus with the Fisk tragedy. The success of the play is very doubtful, portions being received last night with hisses." This is the play in which Mr. McKee Rankin was offered a handsflme salary if he would impersonate the character of Stokes, which profer he indignantly scorned and persisteutly refused, on principles of conscience. Mr. Rankin is well-known in this city, and is now lessee of the Fifth street Opera House, St. Louis, and meets with well-merited success.
Sinking Fund Suit.
In the General Term of the Superior Court yesterday an important opinion was rendered by Judge Newcomb, Judge Rand concurring, upon appeal Irons the decision of Judge Blair, which reverses the decision of the latter in the suit brought by the State ex. rel. the Attorney General vs. Thomas B. McCarty, ex-Auditor of State, and his sureties, for the recovery of interest, alleged to have been received by the defendant, while Auditor of State, upon monips belonging to tbe Sinking Fund, which accumulated in his hands as the official depository thereof. The same decision affects the successors of Mr. McCarty.
Judge Blair sustained the demurrer of the defendant to the complaint upon the ground that he, the defendant, was prohibited from loaning the money hence if interest had been received, as alleged in the complaint, the State could not recover upon the official bond of the Auditor and his sureties.
In his opinion Judge Newcomb reviews at length all the laws relating to the Sinking Funds, and decides that the defendants aro liable under the act of 1861, which provides that— "While the income of the fund is accumulating for distribution, or for purchasing bank bonds, or other purposes of law, they (the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund) shall have power to deposit the same in responsible banking institutions, with satisfactory security to the amount thereof at any time, at interest, for the benefit of the fund, payable on demand. All interest that shall accrue, on any deposit of the Sinking Fund, shall be carried to the fund and •become a part thereof." •/This provision of law, together with sfictiou 3, article 8 of the Constitution, which declares that— "The principal of the common school fund shall remain a perpetual fund, which may be increased but never be diminished, and the income thereof shall be inviolably appropriated to the support of dbmmon schools and to no oth6r purpose whatever."
Are relied upon mainly by the majority of the Court as sufficient grounds for reversing the decision of Jugde Blair and holding the defendants liable for the accumlation of the fund while in the hands of the ex-Auditor, and which it is charged in the complaint he appropriated to his own use.
The case is remanded to the special term for proceedings in accordance with the opinion of the majority of the Court.— Fort Wayne Sentinel.
The profound legal scribbler, heavy statician and didactic theologian of the Express has not proved himself in law maxims to be equal to Broom, nor in prophecy to Nehemiah. Some time ago he asserted positively, that the efforts of Attorney General Hanna and hts associates to recover back the trust money belonging to tbe State, but kept back by a derilict Auditor, had failed,iand would continue to fail to tbe bitter end. Now, since it has transpired that the predicted failure has proved to be a brilliant triumph, why don't the Express take back what it then said and gracefully crawl into its little hole?

Indiana Politics.
INDIANAPOLIS, April 23.—The Evening News of this city has keyed its campaign music to the Cincinnati Convention upon this bondition—that the work of that convention shall be Republican. During the past three months I have been over nearly two-thirds of Indiana, and I know I do not overstate the case when I say that upon the same condition fully one-fifth of the rank and file of the Republican organization of the State will heartily accept the ticket of the Cincinnati Convention. This change, it will readily be seen, if the election of 1870 be taken as a starting point in the calculation, will give the Liberals an overwhelming majority.
The work to be done between this and the 1st of May is to educate the Democracy—to convince them that the only possible hope they have is to permit themselves to be absorbed by the progres sive Republicans. There are still some of them iu Indiana, as I presume there are elsewhere, who have not learned that in 1860 the Democratic party died the death which knqws no waking who seem not to have acquired that most pertinent historic fact—that no party ever survived opposition to a successful war who appear wholly incapable of profiting by the melancholy example of the old Whigs, a9 given in the course they pursued.

CINCINNATI, April 25.—In tin interiew of the Gazette reporter with Colonel W. M. Grosvenor, of Missouri, who reached this city yesterday, the Colonel expressed himself in regard to political matters, as follows: 'JI doubt if Mr. Adams would be the strongest man for the Presidency. He would carry the Eastern States, but would not have the same strength in the West. We count upon carrying New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Hampshire, anyhow, but we want to carry Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and Minnesota. The candidates who could do this are Trumbull, Gratz Brown, and, perhaps, Governor Palmer. We have taken" views with leading Democrats of the party East, West and South, and they all say, go ahead and nominate and we will support it. This Coavention is not called in the interest of Pennsylvania o* any Eastern State, but of the Mi3sissippi Valley. We propose that the Mississippi Valley shall have the recognition and influence which it deserves."
CAIRO, April 25.—At a mass meeting of Republicans here to-day, the following delegates from the Eighteenth (Congressional District were nominated for the Cincinnati Convention D. Arter, N. S.

guch, and intensifying
But you will never return again to the bosom ofthe old organization. You have taken a "new departure"—a final exodus, and any action of yours now which does not recognize this truth would be ill-advised. You may destroy the old Republican party,butit will never fold you again in its arms. It may seek to punish, but ix will never embrace. Acting on this truth, it is clearly your duty and your interest—clearly the interest of the country too—to organize, as you easily may, the successful party of the future for a generation to come. You may combine every element of immediate and long continued success. Grant's administration is rotten to the core, and at the first signs of defeat, its minions will fly from it as rats from a sinking ship. The olt^, copperhead element of the Democratic party, gray-headed and wrinkled, is watching with dimming eyes and faltering "step over the border," the strangling aud hopeless allies of a departed regime. But the liberal element of all parties, willing to heal tbe wounds of the past, are eager to join any movement that cuts loose from the corrupting evils of the present and promises constitutional government and industrial prosperity for the future. The indications you have already given of the platform of principles likely to be adopted fills the country with hope. The great body of the American people believe, both with the head and the heart, in the perpetuity of the Federal Union, the local autonomy of the several States, the equality of all men before the law, freedom of industry to all pursuits, and protecting favoritism to none, liberality to all opinions, and freedom real and practical to the moral, religiousand social ideas and sentiments of the people." Give the people these with a strict construction of all Constitutions, no encroachments of power, no corruptions of Government officials, and general amnesty to the suffering South, and you.r creed will be a-war cry of victory.
But your organization will be incomplete till you have chosen a leader and gone to battle against the proud and defiant hosts of the wrong. Count on no easy victory. Staunch blows will have to be given as well as received. Power ever battles hard befefre it surrenders. Victory would i.udeed be easy enough if you could at once unmask the deformity of executive usurpation and corruption. But the veiled chief of Radical misrule, like tbe prophet of Khorassan, hides his real features and millions of his votaries see only the silver vail "loyalty" thrown over his policy, not the hideous ugliness covered beneath. Strong and expert hands must tear off the beautiful disguise.
Here again the Convention to make a successful choice must be actuated by the most catholic spirit. No countenance must be given to the charge that the movement is only to* accomplish sinister ends. The choice must commend itself to the people, not be made merely as the exponent of old issues or to gratify old party affiliations. On the other hand, it can not entirelypverlook the existence of old parties and their predjudices. It must take a man who has lived through them and grown out of them. Who shall he be? JONJONSON.

It is evident from the^e facts that in order to prevent the disease, one of the main things is cleanliness, not only of our surroundings but also of the body. All stimulants of an alcoholic nature should be avoided, the diet light, principally vegetables, and the stomach occasionally cleansed with some gentle cathartic. This, with some remedy, which will act gently but thoroughly on the secretions, will in most cases act as a sur^ preventive.

DRS. BAKER & HUNTER
THE celebrated case of Bardell vs. Pickwick has made historical the danger of meddling with widows. But Mr. Pick wick was lucky, and his resolute pursuer the most timid and retiring of women compared to the plaintiff and defendant in a recent English breach of promise suit, which is certainly one of the oddest on record. The action which is to serve hereafter as a warning to designing i©en aud a sword and buckler to defenceless and outraged widowhood, is entitled "Kent vs. Crook," and its singularity consists in the fact that the real defendant whom Crook represents has already departed to that land where it is popularly supposed there is neither marrying nor giving in marriage. The plaintiff a widow twenty, nine years of age, went to live in 1870 as house-keeper with a Mr. Virrcent, who, she alleges, offered her marriage The astute defendant bethought himself of dying, as the most effectual way to get out of the scrape—and he accordingly died in October, 1871. But widowed perseverance and the unfathomable resources of British law were again too much for masculine cunning. Mrs. Kent, declining, like a new Proserpine, to follow her recreant lord to the shades, contented herself with bringing an action against his estate for damages. Naturaly, having all the testimony on her side, as well as the traditional sympathies ofthe inteligent jury, she won her case, and went out of court triumphant, with a verdict of £150. Let middle-aged gentlemen with fascinating house-keepers ponder and beware.
