James Loekhart.

lnour issue of Sept. 4th we made in sub
stance the following statement in reference to
the gentleman whose name heads this article:
Some years ago, John Sullivan citizen OF
this County, while on trip down the Ohio
and dMississippiRiyers was lost in great storm
at Natchez. John Hargroye, ecame the ad-
ministrator of his estate. Lockhart alleged
that the estate owed him a hundred dollars,
and for the purpose of substantiating his
claim, made affidavit of the fact to which he
was regularly sworn. Some doubts arose in
the mind eff Mr.. Hargrove as to the truth OF
the claim and upon further investigation of
the matter ascertaned that, notwithstanding
Lockhart's affidavit to the contrary, the es-
tate did not ore him a single doEkgr As soon
as Lockhart found out that his trick was dis
covered, he obtained the affidavit to which he
had been sworn, and destroyed 1t. And why
was it necessary for him to do this? If ne
had sworn to facts in that affidavit there would
have been no necessity for him to destroy it.
The truth is he destroyed the affidavit to es-
cape the consequences Of having taken an oath
the statements of which were ascertained to
be untrue and false in every particular. This
is the conclusion to which all candid men
must come. The whole transaction points ir-
resistable to this end, and it is impossible to
give it any other construction.
As we have before remarked, it is exceed
Iingly unpleasant to be compelled to rake up
charges against the private character of Can
didates, and no one does it with more reluc-
tance than we do; but in this case we conceive
it to be our duty to do so--that the good of
the people and the honor of our District de-
mand that it should be done. We ask if the
people of this District wish to be represented
by man guiltyof the transactions above de-
tailed, and which are known to half the voters
Of Gibson County? Does any man want te
vote for Congressman who is a habitual to-
per, and who gambled for money during the
time he was Circuit Judge, and at the very
time his own Courts were in session. and when
he was daily reprimanding and fning men
for the same offence; even those from whom
he ha0 won money at poker the night previous.
In proof of this latter statement we refer our
readers to Goodlet Morgan and Thomas Kin
man. Esos., of Petersburg, and for the former
to John Hargrove of this County, who, it will
be borne in mind has never supported Lock
hart for Office from that day to this. and who
has. been heard to denounce Lockhart as dis
honest and dishonorable man on that account.

A Little Plain Talk.

-, Fer years the journal has been fighting for
Evansville. II has done more than its mere
duty, or thrice what any other paper in the
State seems to consider ats duty to build up
the city and the business Of the city, in which
it is located. That it has affected much, we
k,aoso and the citizens of Evansville knon-
that it has not accomplished all its editor could
have desired, is no fault of his. But the fact
to which we particularly desire calling the at
tention of readers is this. While thesJ ournal
has been doing all in its power to build up Ev-
ansville and its business, and has undoubtedly
been an important auxiliary tothat result
many of those very persons or houses who
have received the most benefit from its course,
appear to be utterly regardless Of their plain
duty in a reciprocation of friendship. They
may advertise, (there are many however who
do not adVertise,) but they go abroad to get
their Job work done, not because they get
neater work at New York, but because they
can obtain it cheaper. We have been remind
ed of this fact, by noticing that some mer-
chants who have been East this fall, return
with full supplies of bills, bill-heads, cards,
&c. to last them till they go East again. This
is wrong. We have no interest noa0 in saying
so. If we had, it should remain unsaid But
we maintain that if this kind of work can, be
obtained at half the price East it can be pro-
cured from Offices in Evansville, these mer-
chants are not justifable in giving their work
to strangers which is actually needed to sus-
tain the press here. If the Journal does not
give these merchants gratis every year thrice
or twenty times the value Of all their work,
by is numerous articles advocating the inter
ests of Evansville, detailing its improvements
introducing its market advantages to country
merchants abroad and it's commercial and
manufacturing advantanes to strangers, &c.
&C., it is something wonderfully strange 1t
is wrong then. that we should be called upon
to appeal to them to reciprocate to small ex-
tent mutual benefits. They should under
stand their own duty better. and understand
ing practice it. There is not one of these
houses but which we have editorially intro
duced and recommended to country dealers
abroad or to retail customers at hoIne-notic-
ing their new arrivals of goods, and lending
our aid to help them in their business. They
need not tell us we are paid in advertising.
While thankful for all such fayors, we beg
leave to suggest that no man adYertises unless
he expects to get the worth of his money, and
at our low rates we think he a great deal more
than gets it. There are other favors they have
the power of bestowing, and they should not
begrudge them. g. .s..@.

The Victims of the Kansas War.

The Missouri Republican thus speaks Of the
victims of the Kansas war:
The misguided emigrants who crowded to
Kansas early in the spring, continue to leave
that Territory in all directions. They are to
be met in scattering companies, looking half
starved, sickly, and miserable Many of them
having spent all their money, have gathered
up their little effects, and crossed the river to
Iowa, on their way to their homes; or to locate
in some secluded corner of the wilderness, or
patch of prairie, where they will be at peace.
Every boat which comes from the Missouri,
has among her passengers, some of these peo-
Iple. We saw them once before, in the early
spring, when they went up the river, with
money in their pockets; hope in their hearts,
health in their blood, and the world before
them taJ l1 5ls1 ti-5t
They were then in companies of hundreds;
they had family circles, and looked happy;
they took quarters in the cabins of steamboats,.
and partook Of the luxury. Of repose and a
plenteous table, They were thrifty looking
emigrants, who would. do honor to any new
country. H es<ot +, I
We now see them in squads of tens and
twenties-crippled, siekly and apparently
poverty y-stricken-crowded upon the decks Of
STEAMBOATS,, almost begging their way back to
the homes they left but a few months before.
And civil war in Kansas has wrought all this
mischief doomed many a hopeful heart to
despair and death, and embittered the lives of
hundreds more whose plteous stories the
world will never know. a.. f'5
And who is responsible for this unhappy con-
dition of affairs? The Pierce Administration,
the very administration whose acts were en-
dorsed by the Convention which nominated
James Buchanan for the Presidency-the ad-
ministration whose course in relation to Kan
sas has received the unqualified approval OF
the Missouri Republican. Are there ten men
of those hundreds of returned emigrants, who
do not feel bitterness to the depths Of their
hearts against their Pierce, Douglas, Atchison,
&C., prosecutors? Hunted down, abused,
robbed by the Missouri ruffians, they have
seen these ruffians sustained and encouraged
by the Pierce Administration-and they have
seen great party in its turn encourage and
sustain the administration guilty of such in
fanny as this. And this party is asking to be
again placed in power, The Republican draws
an affecting picture of one result of placing
pao anu incompetent men III power. II
graphically depicts the effects of the outrages
which had been sustained by its own editors.
Emigrants from free States are returning to
their old homes, deprived of everything but
lhe-but they bear living, bleeding testimony
against the Pierce Administration

Our Male Academy.

We ask the citizen1 of Winchester
and vicinity, if they intend to let this
institution go down entirely. For the
last three or four years it has made a
regular decline, until it now seems to
moderate the scntiment) about to
make its "desccnsus Averni'', without
a sigh from its friends of former
years. We had supposed that it was
for want Of an active, energetic teach
er. but that cannot now be said Of it.
Mr.. Specr. from short acquaintance.
has shown himself The man we need;
industrious, decisive, and fully comre-
tent to bear the school upwards. The
only difficulty now is that neglect has
become habitual among the friends of
the school, and they have not found
out that the want Of a good teacher is
supplied. Let all who have sons to
be educated now turn their attention
to Carrick Academy.

WINCHESTER.

It strikes our minds that our town
is just passing from its chrysalis state.
Society here has long been in a state
of fermentation, and evidentyis now
being clarified. Winchester is looking
up. Franklin county is full of live pco-
pie; and our town is crowded with
young ladies, with their sunny hearts,
attending the Female Schools. Our
best citizens are feeling the response
bilities ofthe position they are thrown
into by the large foreign patronage
drawn hither by our schools. The
preachers, teachers, and leading men
about town are united in their aim at
elevating the moral tone of society. Let
every citizen lend a helping hand-and
as our town is one Of the Oldest in the
State, let her show she is worthy OF
being the seat Of the nine Muses. and
all the Graces.
