IMPROVEMENT Al THE NJ. 4 NJ.
RAILROAD DKror.-Y esterday morning We
took a general suryey about the N. & n.
Railroad grounds, and were much pleased
to notice so many Improvements in both
buildings and business. A new engine
house of the most substa initial character is
in course Of erection which lie to take the
place of the one blown up a few months
since. The walls are laid upon solid lime
stone rock. and the beds for the boiler and
engine will be placed upon the same sub.
stantal foundation. The engine room is
26xi3. built Of brick, and we'll furnished
and fitted up in the most substantial and
convenient manner. The engine is q large
one Of about 35 horse power. and from the
high finish Of several parts We noticed laying
around the shop, We should Judge it would
be a very handsome peice of machinery
This work is all under the immediate eu.
perintendence of Mr.. kimball, the Master
Mschinist of the N. &IM Road . gentleman
of large experience and thoroughly versed
in the business.
We we're much gratified to learn that the
business of the NJ d ~ Road is rapidly
increasing. and that the same might be said
ofthe Chicago and r. leland Road Mr.
Snyder, the centlemanly az mt. informed vi
that be loaded thirty cars with produce las,
Saturday, and would load as many more yes
terday if they could be obtained. This is .
gratifying evidence of return to the days
Of our prosperity.
We we're Yesterday informed by a gentle
man who should know, that the NJ. 4 NJ
Road, beyond Iowa City. would soon bs
under contract, and that arrangements haG
been made which would ensure the early
completion Of the work to Fort Des Moipes
This desirable end We trust NAV be soor
reached, and We now believe it will be-
Our Railroad managers are fast discov erina
that if they would retain the trade they
now have, and would secure more, they
must bestir themselves and push their roao
into the interior, and this they have nov
| determined upon doing.

The CRY ScHooLs.-EroiD the alb
stract of the report OF the City Superirsend-
ent Of Schools. published 10 the Gazette
fe~ days ago. We learn iha, the whole ex-
pence Of the city pubic schools, during the
Isst year, is az follows:
Amount paid Teachers. .-.......... 81 ,sl3,25
contingent expenses ........ l,353,o5
Daily Democrat and news. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1859-1864, 1859-10-25

the expenses Of last year and there is no
doubt when the funds come to be dra wn the
amount will be found 10 exceed the expen-
ses Of last year
The question, therefore, very naturally
arises, WY it is that so great noise was
made about closing the schools and turning
ont three thousand children into the streets,
provided the people did not see fit to vote
tax Of seven or eight thousand dollars, when
in truth there were funds sufficient to carry
the schools through the year without any
additional tax
But If any tax was needed at all, il should
have been only in view of meeting the con-
tineent expenses Of the schools, which as
We have seen were for last year only tl,-
353 s5
But the amount asked for contingent ex-
penses Of this year. is levy Of one and
one quarter mills, which will make q total
tax of something over IS, 900 and the five
eighth mills levy for teachers fund will
amount to over e. GOO
The sums. making due allowance for
what cannot be collected will swell the
Teachers' Fund for thi. year 10 over sll,-
900. and give the contingent expenses over
"a 600.
Can some one inform US what was the
necessity Of any such levy

Mr.. SIXTH 0'BRrrN ON SECRET SocIErIEs.--
On Mr.. 0'Brien's departure for America, he
left behind him letter addressed to John f.
Mcguire, ESQ, M. p, in which Eve pound
note was inclosed as his contribution to the
"Fairtrial Fund" In that letter Mr.. 0'Brien
says "In offering this contribution l wish 1t
to be distinctly understood that do not ap-
prove the formation Of secret societies. In
deed, much doubt whether there is In Ire
land any one person who deprecates so much
as myself secret combinations. The reason is
obvious: am, on the one hand, anxiously
desirous that the whole Irish nation should be
imbued with patriotic feelings and with ma
tional aspirations; while, on the other, am
convinced that nothing can tend moro to check
such feelings and such aspirations than the
adoption Of a course of proceeding which Is
discountonapced by every influential patriot,
lay and clerical, in this kingdom"

The Tragedy at Hawesville, Ky.

1t appears that some time last summer q
difficulty occurred between Thomas s. Lowe,
merchant Of Hawesville, KY, and Cicero
Maxwell, n candidate for State Attorney, aris-
ing out Of political discussion at Cloverport,
Ky. After numerous notes had passed, says
the Louisville Courier, between the parties, Mr..
Lowe, on Tuesday last, publicly denounced Mr..
Maxwell as a coward, and declared that if Mr..
Maxwell did not meet him in half an hour, he
should publicly assault him. Mr.. Maxwell
made his appearance, and Mr.. Lowe was at
once set upon by Maxwell and mob of twenty
or more. They fred rapidly with revOlyers,
rifles, etc. A man named Aldridge, q friend Of
Lowe, fired on the mob, who fred on him in
return, killing him on the spot.
Mr.. Lowe took refuge in the house Of q
widow lady, which the mob ut once surrounded.
After some time, they pledged themselves not
to mOlest him If he would dsarm and give
himself up; whereupon he divested himself of
nearly every thingand came out. lie had no
sooner made his appearance, than he was
again assailed in the most cowardly man
ner by the mob. He fed amid a shower of
balls, and was again evertaken, after receiving
two or three shots, and conducted to the court
house, and thence taken and confined in the
Jail. On Wednesday morning the jail was sur
rounded by the mob, and six of the number
entered, armed with revOlvers, and while their
victim lay totally unanned and exhausted
from his wounds, they presented their pistols
and fred, literally riddling his body. The ut
most excitement prevails. Some of the most
proml lnent men Of the place have been threat
ened by the mob, and ordered TO leave imme-
diateU.
LATEsT.-By telegraph received from Louis
vile last night we learn that the Hopkins
County Grand Jury find no grounds for indict-
ing the murdcrers of Lowe. Several citizens
have left Hawesville, fearing violence from the
outlaws.
