A Chance for Pitching in!

Our amiable noighbor used to be much &C.
lighted at times to pitch into the wool of the
"Know Nothing City Council.' We have not
heard e word from him lately. If he has no
capital to go on we will give him an item. An
appropriation of twenty-five dollars was asked
of the City Council at its last meeting, to help
buy powder, &C. to fire salutes on Fourth of
July-that we might pay at least that much
honor to the day. There were eight members
of the Council present, four Americans and
four citizens of foreign birth. The Americans
voted for the appropriation-the others voted
against it. This male tie, and the foreign
born Mayor decided against the appropriation!
Now we want our neighbor to soundly trounce
those Americans, those Know Nothings as he
would call them, for trying to vote away &C
tually Twenty-Five dollars of the city's money,
to celebrate the 4th of July, In the East, it is
true every little city corporation votes its
hundreds of dollars for demonstration of glad
ness and thanksgiving on the Fourth-but
what right has Western city to care brass
button about the Fourth of July. Darn their
old Fourth of July-its none of ours-we
didn't help create it-and what right has any
body to suppose the corporation of Evansville
is going to give 'the first red" to support an
Eastern institution. That's the way our
neighbor should talk to them. We should
probably rebuke, and in his own charming
way, those members of the city Council who
have shown that weakness in their hearts even
to the dripping of dollars, known as patriotism
who have betrayed desire to assist in hon
oring the anniversary Of the British Day Of
Independence-who have in fact, accidentally
been men nstined of mice. e

The MASONIC CELEBRATION AT New Al
BANY.-The celebration of st. Johns day yes
terday at New Albany was grand and i'm
posing affair. About TIVE hundred and fifty OF
the Order in this city joined in the exercises,
among whom were thirty knight Templars on
horseback, in their beautiful costume and re-
gala The delegation from this city were re-
ceived at the Albany wharf by their brethren
of that city, and escorted to the Methodist
church, where an eloquent Grafton was deliv
cred by Bev. J. w. Sullivan. After the exer-
cises at the church, they proceeded to one OF
the pork houses where bountiful and mag
nifcent repast was prepared. Six long tables
were occupied. The dinner was Splendid
The procession then moved through the Louis
vile delegation home.

pated in the celebration. Delegations from

The Nomination of Loekhart.

The Convention at Petersburgh, on the 18th,
was composed mainly of men drumfned up
throughout this Congressional District, by Mr..
Lockhart and few of his intimate, personal
friends. 1t was most completely packed, in
the strongest sense of that term. Lockhart
was, ofcourse, rewarded with the nomination.
How could it be otherwise, when he had can
vassed the whole District, securing the APP
pointment of his friends as delegates? He had
worked so successfully that the knowing ones
in the Convention proffered to bet, before
vote had been taken, thousands Of dollars that
Lockhart mould be nominated on the first ballot
Certainly the voice Of the independent Democ
racy could not have been heard in such Con
vention. Can any other conclusion be arrived
at, than that Jim sLockhart contrived to get
himself at the head of the Sag NIGHT lodges in
the District, and that he then managed the Or
der to suit himself? We have good reason
for believing that not one Democrat in ten in
the whole District, preferred the nomination of
this man, upon any contingency. So far as
the Democracy of Knox is concerned, (and the
leaders here can swallow everything by the
name of Democrat, } Lockhart was neither first
or second, or any choice at all. Hon. John
Law was their fayorite and Judge Niblack
their second choice-both men infinitely supe-
rior to the nominee Yet, the Democracy of
the whole District, on account of their neglect
have been cheated by the tactics of Lockhart.
1t would not be so bad did Lockhart possess a
single requisite qualification for the Office. But
it is notorious fact, that he does not. lie
held the place once, and disgaced it; and dis
graced the people who elected him to it. And
as we are told. he sought the present nominal
ton as an endorsement of his former course,
and hence is asking his party to endorse the
inamy of his acts! Will they do it?

The British Press on the DISMISSED of Mr. Crarlp.
tom

The London Times, Of June 5th says
"The American press endeavors to persuade
itself that England will be ready to appoint a
successor in the place of Mr.. Champion, and
suggests that the three Consuls can be retained
in their situations, by way of compromise. In
the first of these views we apprehend that the
writer's considerably over estimate the placabil-
ity ofthe English government and people. We
will not, on the one hand offer insult or offence;
but, on the other, we are not disposed tamely
to submit to it. Those who endeavor to per-
suade themselves that we shall learn the dis
missal of Mr. Champion without enforcing the
retirement of Mr.. Dallas, are calculating upon
an amount of endurance totally inconsistent
with the character of Englishmen. Did we
believe that Mr.. Champion had really been
guilty of any offence against the United States,
there would need little pressure or remonstrance
to induce US at once to remove him from the
situation he would have dishonored; but if an
attempt be made to sacrifice him to the emer-
gencies of local politics, we shall feel that his
quarrel is our own, and certainly not pass it
over without distinctly marking our sense o.
the indignity.

LAWRENCE, X. T., June 16, 1856.
A young man named Hopkins was shot car
lv this morning by man named Hayman,
both residents of this city. The deceased was
a Kentuckian, in favor Of making Kansas a free
State Mr.. Hyman and his wife went before
the committee of safety this forenoon and made
their statement The testimony Of the wife
differed very materially from that of the muir
derer. By their statement it seems that the
deceased went to the house of Hayman, forced
the door, entered the house and fred several
shots, none taking effect. Mr.. II. then took
his revolver and shot the deceased through the
heart, killing him instantly. By the testimo-
ny of these interested parties, Mr.. H. is JUST
fed in doing what he did. 1t was done in
selfdefense but after the man was killed, he,
in conversation with some of our citizens, de-
clared that he had killed 'Jour' other men, and
had is eye on eipt othersn' He is now acting
as deputy sheriff of Douglas county, and as
such used the troops this morning in arresting
a man named j. Colburn, and taking him to
Lecompton; what Celburn was taken prisoner
for no one knows, as there was no writ out for
him.
The u. S. troops, which have been station
ed at Topeka for the last three or four weeks,
received orders to leave there and go to Tur-
key Creek day before yesterday. Perhaps it
is to prevent the sacking of that city.
tits reported in this city that the Kickapoo
Rangers passed up towards Lecompton on the
north side of the river yesterday. Their OBJ
! ect is not known to our people.
This evening gentleman came up on the

troops were driving the armed bands out of
