Salaries of City officers.

A committee was appointed at the last meet
ing of the City Council to fix the salaries ofthe
City Officers for the year commencing next
April. This committee will report next meet
ing, and in view of this report we desire to make
few remarks. We think that niggardly econ
omy in the salaries Of public officers of any
kind, is the poorest possible policy. It has a
tendency to fill offices with incompetent men,
who have no higher recommendation than par
titan zeal We especially regard it as blind
and mistaken policy in rapidly growing, city
like this, where every officer has important du-
ties under his charge, upon the faithful dis
charge of which more or less of the prosperity
of the city depends-to fix the salaries at so
of the aspirations ofproperly qualified citizens.
Just so long as these salaries are kept at this
low grade, that long may we expect these OIL
ces, as general thing, to be subjects of compe-
tition among partizan men, who are utterly
unfit to take charge Of private business of i'm
portance, but who claim from their party as re-
wards offices of trust. If we desire these off
ces to be filled with any higher class of men,
the Offices should be made to pay better men for
performing the duties Of the respective posi-
tons
We do not think these city Offices should be
made the subject of partizan competition--but
they ever will be So while they Offer no in
ducements in their salaries for the aspirations
of competent men. As it is, the community
is frequently insulted by the publieappearance
of miserable party-hacks as aspirants for what
are really important city Offices, and we are
sometimes totally refused choice ofauy high
er candidates from the list offered. We trust
the City Council will fix the salaries for the
coming year Of all the city officers at such a
sum as will actually pay good men fair price,
should they assume the Offices. The fact is,
we can better afford to pay such men fair sala-
ries, than other men one half the price-oI
than to let these others do the work, if they
would, for nothing.

Our Candidate.

The nomination of Willard Fillmore is being
hailed with lively qualification by the Ameri-
can party. Papers are coming out for him,
which we thou ht never could be induced to
declare for the nominee of the Philadelphia Con-
vention whoever he may be. Fillmore has
largo place in the hearts of the American peo-
ple No man has warmer friends with COM
paTatiyely fewer enemies. No man has wider
spread political and personal popularity than he
and no other mar in the country combines
in himself more happily those attributes Of
character and opinions which should create
popularity Loved and admired as is Mr.
Fillmore by his own party, he preserves also
the respect of his opponents. We may expect
to hear him abused and yillifed and slandered
but we cannot forget, that during his admin
istration of the affairs of this government, his
bitterest opponents failed in their most scrut-
iRizing searches, to point out a single act Of
commission or omission calculated to lessen
him in the good opinions or confidence of the
people-and that since his retiracy from the
Presidency, even their slanderous lips have
been silent in respect to Mr.. Fillmore.
This is the man presented by the American
party, as their candidate for the Presidency
He is no erpe,lment--he is not an unknown
man. He has been tried, and the severe orde-
al through which he passed, established his
possession of those rare faculties which assim-
Hated the man to his position and that the
highest on earth. His administration was re-
spected at home and admired abroad-assailed
rs it was by enemies, their blows but made it
stand out brighter and in holder relief No
Administration since the days of Washington
was moro popular than his. No President
since Washington could have retired from
Office with prouder satisfaction of having done
his duty and done that duty well, than Fill
moro. 1t is folly to deny profound statesman
ship to man who passed so gloriously through
such trial. High ability and personal popu
larity were his aids--but the keen perception
the penetrating sagacity, the experience and
the worldwide knowledge Of the statesman
were what really accomplished his success.
We wish to see this man again elevated tc
the Presidency We know what he is, and
what he is not. We have had enough expert
ence with him to wish to try him again. He is
before the people,, without his own consent
and without his knowledge at this time, but
we hope eventually with his ownfull appro

The Old Liners vs.. Temperance.

The editor of the Terre Haute Express thus
addresses the editors of the Terre Haute Jour
nal, who had been objecting to Temperance
lectures. The Express talks plainly and
truthfully. The OldsLine party. disguise the
fact as they may, are opposed to the Tenn
perance movement. They abuse temperance
lectures, and they abuse as politicians preacher
who discourse upon temperance:
You need not longer endeavor to DISGUISE
the fact, gentlemen, that the whole influence of
your press and of your party, are antagonistic
to the entire temperance movement You are
opposed to the laws passed to restrain intoxi-
cation. You are opposed to temperance Socie-
ties organized to suppress intemperance You
are opposed to the courts that sustain the
constitutonalty of prohibitory laws. You
are opposed to the church that advocates tenn
perance, and the minister that proclaims it
from the pulpit. Youare opposed to temper
ance lecturers and the walls Of your wrath are
poured out on their devoted heads.

Arrival Of Gordon's NHrderers

About dark last evening, Capt. Couzens and
Mr.. Truesdale returned to the city with Wor-
rel and Bruit the murderers of Mr.. Gordon
in custody, and at once proceeded to give them
secure Judgment in the county Jail. Not more
than fifteen minutes interviewed in the time of
their arrivals-Mr Truesdale with Bruii hav-
ng come in by the Ohio and Mississippi Rail-
road: and the Capt. Couzens, with his party
getting in by the train from Alton and Terra
daute. This coincidence is exceeded in in
erest only b{ that Of the arrest Of the pYs
o'ioio - a thousand miles distance separated
E R9ra -''' = ''-'''''''
The prisoners, as is now we'll established,
are the same who deserted not long ago from
Fort Leavenworth, where they were enlisted
under assumed names. We learn that both
stood well in the army, one occupying the po-
sition of Orderly Sergeant in company of the
line, and the other being a Sergeant in the
iQuartermaster's Department. The horses
they were seen riding after their desertion from
Fort Leavenworth were stolen.
| Both are Young men-Worrell, the eldest,
| not exceeding thirty years ofage-and of more
than ordinary decency and gentllity Of address
and appearance Bruff's expression of face is
! not unpreposessing. In Worrell's visage, how
lever. one, on near examination, may detect
something like lurking viliainy.
! When received at the jail the prisoners were
| in irons-W orrell in handouts, and the other
man manacled with leg chains. Their guilt is
now evident beyond doubt. Each has con.
fessed his presence at the murder of Mr.. Cor.
DON and an accessory participation in the crime
but each charges the principal eriminality in
Gordon's death upon the other.

In LUcK!-There are thousands and tens OF
thousands of those who patronize lotteries who
never receive the cost of their tickets, to one
who wins even asmall prize. But we have
now to rescind one instance Of luck Mr. Eu-
gene List, Clerk of the Virginia, ascertained
yesterday on his arrival here, that he had drawn
$4,000 prize at the Havana Lottery. He
was congratulated on all sides. Time alone
will tell whether the seeming blessing be not a
curse. Well. we are glad so clever young
man won this prize anyhow, and wish him
much ioy in his luck.

In reference to the power Of the bank to dis

after the first day ofJanuary, 1857, and that
the closing Of the business OF the bank [for
which two years thereafter, until January l.
1859, is given 5y its charter may be expedi-
ted, as much as may be practicable, with as
little pressure on the community as may be
possible, the following resolution was unani-
mousiy adopted at the last session of the
Board of Directors Of the Bank, held during
the present month:
ResolUeI, That, in view of the approaching
close of the Bank, it is recommended to the
several branches, that they call in at least
twenty-five per cent every four months on all
standing or accommodation loans; and in fu-
ture confne their discounts to strictly prompt
paper to be paid at maturity.

0rFWe are glad to notice that orr friend of
the New Albany Tribune has placed the names
Of Fillmore and Donelson at the head of his
paper. In doing So he thus speaks:
FILLMORE AND DoNELsoN.-We place at our
mast head to-day, the names of Fillmore and
Donelson, for the two highest offices in the gift
ofthe American people. They were regularly
nominated by the National Convention of the
American party on Monday, by overwhelm-
ing majOrites, and will make as strong a
team" as could possibly be brought out Mr..
Fillmore was our first choice for President,
and We believe ne is the first choice ola large
majority Of the Americans of Indiana, and
of the Union. He is man of enlarged expa-
rience, of unimpeachable integrity, of sound
National and Conservative views, and, in fact,
just the man to steer the ship of State in these
troublous times. He has filed the Presiden
tial chair with more honor to the country and
credit to himself than any incumbent since the
days of Jackson. Fearlessly he did his duty,
and his whole duty, without regard to Sec
tional influences that were brought to bear to
swerve him from the right, and if again select
ed Chief Magistrate, as we hope and believe
he will be, who can doubt that he will fill the
position quite as acceptably as he did during
his previous term?
Of Andrew J. D0nelson, the nominee for
the secnod Office, we shall have frequent OPP
portunity to speak more at large hereafter.

A PERTINENT QUEsTIoN.-The State Jour

Kansas matters and the Presidents position:
If it is true that the prospective incursion
of armed bands of Missourians into Kansas for
the purpose of forcing slavery upon that Ter
ritory against the will of the actual settlers
or, as Pierce defined it in his Proclamation,
IAN aggressive intentiOn'-be illegal, we res
pectfuily ask. are not ALL former acts Of like
character, which resulted in the election of the
Border Rufian Legislature and their 'black
and bloody code :" also unlawful 'aggressionS?''
If so, does not Pierce put himself upon level
with these outlaws" and place himself in the
category of traitor" and become IN abettor Of
unlawful combinations" by sending the U. S.
troops to enforce the 'ilIegap' and unconstitu-
