the Wards on their recent trial.
A public meeting in Madison, Indiana,
yesterday passed the following resolution
with only two dissenting votes
ReSolped, That this meeting request
the Board of Directors of the Jefferson
County Agricultural Fair to withdraw
their invitation to Gov. Crittenden to
deliver the address at the next Annual
Fair Of Jefferson Couuty--the action of
Gov. Crittendeu in the Ward case, he
having volunteered his services and pros
tituted his great talents in an unworthy
cause, Wis tho overriding Of public jus.

excuse, II one is necessary, for this pub

The Murder Of Mr.. Butler.

The acquittal of Matthew L. Ward
tho murderer of W II G Butler, q teach
er in Louisville, oxcites universal in
digua,ion. Mr.. Butler was Northern
man. He was poor. The Ward family
are rich, gon,eol and influential
The circumstances Of the murder arc
as follows:
On the I'd Of November, at about Q
o'clock in the morning, Matthew +.
Ward, having armed himself with two
pistols, went homo and told bis mother
that he was going to the school room Of
Mr. Butler, to demand an apology of him
for having, on the Gay previous punished
his brother, Willie Ward, and for having
charged him with lying. His mother
advised him to be calm and to take his
brother Robert with him, as Butler was
larger man than he was. Matthew
told his brother Robert to get his hat
and come along, which he did, taking
with him also bowie knife which lie
was in the habit of carrying The two
brothers proceeded to the school-room
and asked for Mr. Butler, who was en-.
gagged in his duties, in the midst Of his
pupils, and who came forward on being
called Matthew Ward told Butler he
had come for an explanation as to his
having whipped his brother. Butler
asked him to step into his private room
where be would explain it to him Ward
refused, saying that was the place TO set
tie it,
Mr.. Butler nodded Matt said, what
are your ideas of justice ? which is the
worst, the boy who bogs chosthuts and
throws the shells on the floor and then
lies about it, or my brother who gave
them to himl Mr. Butler said he would

in his pocket aud buttoning up bis Goa.
Matt. repeated the question Butler
said there is no such boy here; Matt
said, that settles the matter; but you
called my brother liar, and for that
must lave an apology Butler said he
had no apology to make; is your mind
made up said Matt; Butler said it was
then, said Matt, you must hear my opin
ion of you, you are a Id scoundre'

This statement Of whn. took place
thus far is from the evidence Of Ward:

is also under indictment as an accessory
to the murder. 1t agrees substantially
with that Of other witnesses RcbertW arc

E4y~Ihc Jownal Of Commerce., an
undoubted authority on the subject,
has the following statements concern
ing the progress of opinion at the South
upon the long pending question be-
tween the two great divisions Of the
Union:
a very intelligent and unprejd-
diced gentleman, who has recently
spent several weeks in Georgia and
Alabama, tells US that the Nebraska
question is fast transferring the Union
men of those States to the ultra South
ern party, lately called SeceSsionists.
lie says the opinion is gaining ground
there, and has become quite prevaN
lent, that the only way they can live
in peace with the North is to have as
little to do with them as possible
They say that very many of those at
the North who appeared to be their
friends in 1850 and 1851 have deser-
ted them on the Nebraska question,
and that those who are with them on
that may desert them at the next
time of trial, In short, they are con.
vinced that they have nothing to hope
from the North-not even a faithful
performance Of the stipulalions of the
Constitution-but must rely upon
themselves.

True 10 his dcsrotlc instincts and par

the first bill, Of any great moment. pass
cd BY Congress since his Inauguration
That bill-making an equitable distribu-
ton Of ten million acres Of the public
lands to tho several States for the bene
fit of the INDECENT insane was passed
by decided majority in both Houses.
But the voice of the people must bend
to the will of the President 1t is nm
essential principle of the falsely-callod
Democratic faith.
On the plea of unconstituiionality and
inexpcdiency, lie argues tho case at
length, in message sent ir to the Sen
ate on Wednesday. The truth is, the
South generally opposed the measure,
and tho New Hampshire politician must
of course be with them. After consd
cradle discussion, on Wednesday and
Thursday, the subject was postponed
until Monday. A two.thirds vote for
the bill cannot probably be obtained.
