1t is reported by some of Mr.. Shapes
INSCRIPTIONS political friends that he will
receive, to-day, large party vote for Mayor.
If a man, with such a record as he now pre-
sents to the public, can obtain the votes of
100 decent men in the city, then, we say,
open the doors of every public vault and
safe for indiscriminate plumber. Give the
smallest public countenance to acts like
those of which he stands convicted, and the
small pittance which the official pecdlators
would leave of the public funds, would not
be worth locking the doors to preserve
Instead of voting for him, let him be made
to feel how terrible and whitening is the
public indignation when excited by I'M
faithful and delinquent public servant Let
him feel how fathemless is the pit into
which official dishonesty can cast man once
respected and trusted.

H@~ We have been asked by the warm
friends of each, to press upon the attention
of voters, the claims of two venerable and
highly esteemed citizens, who are rival can
didates for the Office of City Recorder The
merits of both are so strong that voters will,
like ourselves, be puzzled to make choice
between Squire Mills and Squire Chute
Mr.. Mills thinks his experience in the office,
and the fact that Squire Chute now holds an
appointment which will not expire for more
than year, while he mills, if defeated
will oe out of employment, ought to have
some weight in his favor Both are gentle
men of the hi CHEST integrity and long expe-
rience, and either of them will make an up
right and faithful magistrate.
We learn, however, that the duties of the
Office are likely hereafter to be discharged
by the Mayor, and that we shall probably
have a Mayors instead of Recorders

Willard Carpenter and the Straight
Line Railroad.

The following statement by the President
of the Straight Line Railroad Company
exhibits wide discrepancy in the accounts
of the Company and those of Mr.. Carpenter,
which it is the duty of the party in error
to explain to the public. The Company say
if it was not for the Embellishments and
failure of Willard Carpenter & Co, the road
could be put in operation in six months
failure to his partners, the Messrs. Affords
The Affords are, we learn, about to make
an exhibit by which the failure will be
shown to have originated in the grasping
avarice of Mr.. Carpenter. In the .contro-
sy the public we hope, will get at the truth j:
OFFICE OF E., l., AND c. S. L. r. Co, -
Indiananapohs, March 20, 1859.
Mr.. Willard Carpenter has deemed it
proper to publish statements of his affairs
with this Company, and with his partners
in the contract for the construction of the
road of this Company. We have ne wish
or desire to interfere with the difficulties
that unhappily exist between Mr. Carpenter
but his statements go further than those diff
| fculties, and are understood to imply that he
has suffered by this Company. AS suit
has been brought against the contractors,
| Willard Carpenter Il Co., and is now pend
ing in the proper Court, in which all matters
between this Company and the contractors
will have to be Investigated and adjudica-
ted, if not adjusted, it is highly improper to
attempt to forestall public opinion by detail
ed statements of the matter in controversy
made by one of the parties. But us Mr..
| Carpenter has taken that course it is but
proper that some notice should be taken
| of it. La 1883 AstsEtf Il .&t a&
Assets of this Company to the amount of
about 500, 600 have gone into the hands of
/ Willard Carpenter & Co. They were most
| ly delivered to Mr.. Carpenter; Mr.. o. H.
/ Smith, the then President of this Company,
having the utmost confidence in the ability
and integrity Of Mr. Carpenter to properly
hold, dispose OF, and account for them.
The entire work done upon the line, as
shown by the published report of the Engi-
neer, amounts to 1888, $50 So Mr. Lazarus
| B. Wilson, Civil Engineer, has since meas
ured and estimated the work, and makes it
a small amount more, some work having
been done after the published estimate was
! made. .- H-r -ffsf
By the terms of the contract, ten per cent.
of the payment for work done IS retained
until the division is completed. The pay
ments actually made by Carpenter & Co., as
shown by the published report of the Engi-
neer, are as follows: a

Communicated
Mr.. EDiToR:-An article in the Jomnal
of the I'd inst. would seem to call..for reply
from me.
1t is full of falsehoods, and | have no
doubt that the author lied wilfully, and
intended to produce false impression,
and thus injure me for the qualification of
malicious feeling, growing out of my course
as an attorney in couple of lawsuits in
which succeeded in preventing the author
of the aforesaid article in defrauding GER
tain parties with whom he had had deal
ings.
The $500 alluded to was allowed to Jones
4 Blythe, as attorneys for the city, in its
controversy with the Straight Line Rail-
road Company, and had nothing to do with
my trip up the railroad. The $3.50 was al
lowed partly on account of that trip, and
partly for other professional services, an &C
count of which is on file in the City Clerk S
office. When the allowance was made, it
was understood that | considered part, at
least of the taxes of 1857 illegal, and that
| did not intend to pay them-I so told the
Collector when handed him the order.
gave them to him as soon as they were
issued, telling him to kold them till | should
direct him how to apply them and although
the amount was greater than would pay the
taxes of 1857, because ! gave the collector
no directions about tue application of the
funds in bis hands, he returned the taxes OF
1857 as wholly delinquent.

aeA. The author of the article in rela-
ton to Mr.. James G. Jones account with the
city, refers TO Ex-Mayor Hopkins aud Mr.
Lemcke, City Clerk, for the correctness Of
his statement of the affair if any voter
wishes to know the whole truth in the mat.
ter. These gentlemen, from their official po-
sitions, have been cognisant of the whole
transaction. The writer was actuated by
no personal feelings or political motives in
making the exposition. Personally and po-
litically he has been friend of Mr.. Jones
but thinks in his present relation to the
city, and with his avowed sentiments upon
the school question, he would be an insult
able person to send from the second. ware
to the Council.

Nh. JAMES G. JONES complains that the

Nh. JAMES G. JONES complains that the
communication in the Journal, on Saturday
morning, did him injustice. We have made
thorough examination into the facts at the
council chamber, and the only error we
have detected in the statement of facts is
one that will do Mr.. Jones very little benefit,
in our apprehension, to correct but as he
insists upon the exact truth, and threatens
to hold every one who speaks of him when
q candidate responsible for inadvertent err
rors, we supply the omissions of our cores
pondent. The fee of $500 was allowed to
Messrs. Jones and Blythe for their services
in the case of the city vs.. the Straight Line
Railroad Company; the very liberal allow
ance was made at the very commencement
of the suit in consideration and with the ex-
press understanding, verbally. with Jones,
that the amount was to be applied to the
payment of his then delinquent taxes, in the
assessment of which there was technical
error, which made the assessment invalid.
After procuring the allowance, and after
some laches of the city, committed through
a desire to accommodate him, that made the
city's claim still worse, Mr.. Jones stops the
collection of them altogether by an injunc-
ton, and then manages to have the allow
ance so transferred as to apply it as far as
he needed it to his taxes of 1858, against
which he could raise no Legal. bubble; and
leaves his taxes for 1866 and 1857 still un-
adjusted, and resting under the injunction.
The pride of opinion which Mr.. Jones al
leges as a reason for contesting the school
tax, is too paltry and shallow for man of
his standing to offer to the public. So are
the ISLANDERS upon the supposed writer of
the communication poor answer to the re-
corded evidence against Mr.. j. Whatever
and whoever the writer may be, makes no
change in the question in regard to Jones'
transactions with the city. We are author
lied to refer to John S. Hopkins, and Mr..
Lemcke, City Clerk, for the truth of the
facts here stated, as to the proceedings with
the Council.

HA- 1t is stated that Franklin Pierce is
pursuing the same plan to secure the nomi-
nation for the Presidency at the Charleston
Convention by which he succeeded SO well
in 1852. He is writing letters to various
points, positively declining the nomination,
while at the same time his friends and himself
are leaving no stone unturned to secure that
very object. We don't think the Ex-Presi-
dent will succeed so well in 1860 as in 1852.

This shows how much Willard Carpenter
& Co. have paid in money. OF that sum
there was borrowed on the endorsements of
the late Hon. o. H Smith, $4,000. There
was furnished tothe contractors by the COM
pany in money, $35, 4o2 2l.A This leaves
but $25, $50 As of the money paid by the
contractors to be advanced by Mr.. Carpenter
He admits in his published statement, that
$50, 450 have been realized from the bonds,
which nearly pays the $so, 900 borrowed on
Mr. Smiths endorsements. Adding what it
lacks of paying the $4,000 to the $685.
As il makes a total $2a,73 So that
Willard Carpenter & Co. have paid for
the work on the road, if they have rea-
lized nothing more out of the assets of the
company in their hands, than Mr.. Carpen-
ter's published statement admits. But it
is known that the city of Evansville has paid
to Mr. Carpenter two years interest on the
500, 900 of bonds issued by the company.
This reduces the actual outlay to Mr.. Car
penter to Sl4,73o As. -. vt..b l,,-c.f,...
! Though the contract was liberal, and al
lowed large margin of profits to Messrs.
Carpenter & Co., yet a fair adjustment of all
matters between them and the company will
show balance of about quarter of a mil
lion dollars of the assets of this company
in their hands, after all the work done is
paid for at the liberal rates allowed by the
contract. a..s.ss3 5f-ft5-T s.lr
If they would return those funds to this
company, and if the city of Evansville
would pay up the balance of her subscrip-
ton, the first division of the road, extending
from Evansville to the crossing of the Ohio
and Mississippi Railroad, could be finished
in year. Every one must determine for
himself who causes the delay in the prose-
cution of the work. JER. SMITH,
