The Unsuitable demand for this de-

licious fruit Of twenty years ago to de-
generate TO The meanest bitterest fruit

lican majority in the State will be much
greater than it was year ago. In
tho counties heard from, the Republi-
can majority is rising fifteen hundred
the same counties, last year, gave
only 944 majority for GRIMES. the Re-
publican candidate for Governor. The
Io,ea RepuJlicon. received yesterday,
says:
There can be no doubt. that the
Democracy throughout the State have
been defeated worse than ever before.
and had there been State officer to
elect, the returns would have shown
IL most clearly. In such counties as
Jackson, Davis. and some others,
where Bates had a majority, there is
now n majority of several hundred the
other way. and in counties which had
been considered hopelesaly and ire
deemably Democratics while in defer

Another Know Nothing Outrage.

Another Know Nothing Outrage.
The Louisville Democrat gives the
following terrible account OF a Know
Nothiug outrage in New Albany
What is to become of the country, il
such things continue?
"The Catholic priest Of New Alba
ny has lately received three anony-
nous letters warning him that the
church would be attacked and burned.
To the first two he paid no attention,
but the third named the night on
which the attack was to be made He
took it to the mayor Of the city, show
ed il to him, and asked him what he
was to do; the Mayor replied that he
did not know-lhat Ne could do moth.

told the Mayor that the church was
his property, and he would Defend
So when the night ca,ne-last night
he went to the church, having with
him double barreld shotgun, load
ed, and accompanied by some hall
dozen lrishmrn. They waited ill
towards midnight, when body OF
men came up. Before they had time to
make an attack. he went out and ask.
ed them what they wanted. Their only
reply was a shower of stones at him
and the church; after this brave ex-
plot. frightened ut the sight of a gun.
and half a dozen men. they tarned and
fled. The priest did net shoot. for he
thought, although he would have been
justified in doing so, that il might lead
to bloody work which he was deter
mined TO avoid if possible. We have
these facts from an old and respecta-
bic citizen"
When the account reached New
Albany the next day. it was all neps
TO the citizens. aud they began TO en-
quire aboni it. The result Of the in.
vestigation is thus given by the Trib-
une.
Immediately after reading this in
famous paragraph we set about trac-

paling the falsehood. and holding its
guilty author up to merited con-

We Grst called on the Mayor. who
informed US, that so farfrom the Cath
Ole priest having shown him any such
letter. or spoken to him with reference
TO it. he had never spoken TO him on
any subject, and should scarcely know
him, were he to meet him on the
sheet.
In company with the Mayor, we
called upon Mr.. Neron. the Catholic
priest alluded TO. lie was utterly
amazed at the audacity of the false
hood. and authorized us to say for him
that the story was altogether fabulous,
and without any foundation in truth.
He made no such statement to the
Mayor or any one else. He Lad re-
ceived no anonymous letters of the
kind mentioned within the present
year. He had never been stoned, or
even threatened with violence, SO far
as he knows. He travels about thro'
our city during all hours of the night,
and has never been disturbed, menace

no violence, either 70 person or prop

We noticed, some days since, that
Judge Petit had sustained the tenn
perance law. and decided in favor OF
its constitutionality. We give the re-
marks Of the Judge, as we find them
in late number of the Lafayette
Courier:
The Court, in giving the opinion,
regretted the necessity devolving up
on him Of deciding on the law in adj
vance of the Supreme Court, who
had the whole matter so fully and
ably laid before them. Also, that in
the present instance the defendant was
female. but stated that being so call
ed, he would decide the case as he
thought just, regardless Of any other
consideration than his duty as Judge
demanded. In this opinion, the
Court ably reviewed the whole ground,
so far as the case before him was con-
cerned, properly declining an opin-
ion in any point not involved. He
said the following questions were in
yoyed:
/. Had the State. constitutional
right to enact a prohibiiory law in
reference 10 the retailing of spirituous
liquors? lie decided she had such
right, and went fully into the elucida-
ton Of that branch Of the subject.
2. Had the Legislature not enacted
such law, and was il now in force?
He decided this afhrmatively.
3. Was the liquor law. in its provi-
sions touching the points involved in
this case. constitutional? He decided
most emphatically, that il was. That H.
tie of the.law embraced only one subject
and only matter connected Herewith,
and that the subject, was fully express
ed in the tille That the first section
clearly showed what was meant by
Intoxicating liquors, and that this, in
connection with other sections of the
act, clearly defined who should and
who should not sellit& in what .quan-
titles il should be sold. That the 10th
section clearly defined the punishment
and shal the thirty eighth section clear
! ly showed that the punishment was
proper in che case OF females MS wei
as of males. That the liquor law wal
not an amendatory law, but repeal
! ing law, and therefore the thirty-nintf
section repealed.all former laws tina
aimed provisins Mt wal with ths
principles OF this law. go
/ The Judge fully and ably discussed
the question, and unhesitalingly de
eided that the Legislature had ampl'
authority TO pass any law REGULATING
The sale OF anything in the State, or .h'
management Of any business, and fur
Their had full authority TO nSriRELl
PROHIBIT the retailing Of any articl'
in such quantities as they shall deem
injurious TO the public good. or th'
management of any business whicl
in their view. would be destructive Q
the public good.'
