n5-We do not like to refer again to an I'M
pleasant subject, but we think justice to our
self and our readers requires us to say to the
editors of the Evansville Enquirer and Sulli-
van Democrat, that an effort was made in this
place, by the friends of Gov. Willard, to get
certificates or affidayits controVerting the truth
of our paragraph to which they took such
grave exceptions, but the undertaking could
not be accomplished. The evidence against them
was as plain as the sunlight of heaven, and the
very enth, siastic Democrats gave it up and
agreed to sly as little about it as possible I"
Now, when the truth is thus acknowledged by
their friends here, simple justice demands that
the Enquirer and Democrat should place us in
proper light before their readers. Will they
do it?-En Gaz.
Certificates might very readily be procured
to preve that Willard sOas drunk, and very
drunk, at the time referred to-and the con-
sequent destruction of just one gallon of
brandy; for: it takes just that to fummix

Terrible Railrod Accident.

By dispatches, it will be seen that there has
been terrible accident on the Pacific Rail-
road, near ST. Louis, by which seventeen per-
sons were killed and many others wounded,
some of them MORALLY. Among the killed
were Mr.. OSullivan, Chief Engineer of the
road; the Rev. Mr.. Billiard, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church of ST. Louis; E. G.. Black
that city; Henry Chouteau, known over the
West as an old merchant of ST. Louis; two
Representatives in the Legislature, &c. These
gentlemen were all widely known. We were
intimately acquainted with Mr.. Blackburn,
having known him from boyhood. This &C
cident will throw pail over st. Louis, and
lacerate hearts all over the country.

few days since, against Fred. Dwight, formerly
of Springfield, for breach of marriage promise.
The lady is 26 years ofage, and had been court

proved that he at one time presented her with Q
changeable silk dress, at another with black
silk and made innumerable presents. of hand
kerchiefs, books, shawls, bonnets, and other ar

81 Gov. Wise, of Virginia, has an idea
that he will be able to make run as the next
Democratic candidate for the Presidency. Mr..
Pierce thinks very differently. Mr.. Wise
wishes to secure delegates to the Cincin-
natl convention who are favorable to his inter-
ests. Mr.. Pierce prefers delegates who would
be favorable to reelection of the present
incumbent. And so the President and Mr.
Wise are at loggerheads. 1t is impossible to.
predict what may result from this family
quarrel.

OFThe evening train, in going up a few
nights since, did nice business. The loco
motive and baggage car became detached from
the passenger cars. They drove ahead through
the darkness, leaving the passengers in a state
of doubtful quietude. After running thirteen
miles, it was discovered that the cat had lost
its tail! They went back and secured the
fragment, and went on their way rejoicing.
We know we ought not to tell this, but it
wouldn't keep.

Market Ordinances. 40.

The abuse of our present City Council by
those who do not like The ordinance relative
to the opening of markets forty minutes be-
fore sunrise instead of O'Clock, as during the
summer, is entirely misplaced. The present
Council had nothing 10 do with making the Or
dinance alluded to. 1t is precisely the same
ordinance which was in force last winter and
the winter previous. IF 1t vas not carried out
then. it was simply because the market mas
ter did not do his duty. Let those who want
this ordinance changed, make their appeals to
the present Council-but to abuse the Council
for the ordinance notc in force, is to show
either great ignorance or great knavery. We
have no doubt that the City Council is anxious
ly DESTROYS of pleasing all, SO far it can hon
orally do so--but we hope the Council will not
so far forfeit their self-respect as to take a
single step toward pleasing those who may In
any manner seek to bully the members into
acting against their own judgment.
The present market ordinance is no doubt
satisfactory to the great mass of our citizens
who attend market. Yet as there are COM
plants among those who are entitled to as
much consideration as any others, that the
market is opened too late for their convent
ence, and as some of the butchers think this
is lending aid and comfort to the meat shops
we do not presume serious objection would
be made on the part of any portion of our citi-
gems to change to a somewhat earlier hour,
although they would not submit to the
O'Clock system. We think, for instance, that
no objections would be made from any quar-
ter, to such change in the ordinance as would
command the market to be opened at fUe
oclock Indeed we think the expression
forty minutes before sunrise too indefinite
anyhow. 1t rather presumes upon the fact
that every man carries an almanac in his
pocket, which is not exactly the case. We
trust, however, the City Council will take the
whole affair into consideration, and act by
their own judgments, and whatever they do,
let it be cautiously done, then firmly adhered
to. If they choose to alter an ordinance made
by their predecessors, as the law exists at
present, to say the O'Clock hour, we do not
suppose any body will quarrel with them
and if after discussion, they don't alter the or
dinance, they will be sustained by those
who are satisfied with things as they are. We
have no idea that in the settlement of this
question the Union will be much jeopardized.
The country is doubtless safe, and will most
probably survive all fluctuations in the Evans
vile cabbage market
