- Evansville and her Interests.
Judge DeBruler, in his speech last Thurs
day at Mozart Hall, remarked that when he
was a candidate for Congress nine years ago
/ the charge was made against him that he
was inimical to the interests of Evansville.
+ Much advantage was taken Of this charge
by the friends of Judge Loekhart his op-
poneut, who was a citizen Of this city
! 1t was supposed that the interests of Evans
vile would be promoted by the election of
LoGkhart that he would he more iudustri-
Gus in securing government patronage and
favors than man whose interests were
not 50 closely identified with us These
Influences aided materially in the defeat of
DeBruler atthat time He told his audi
ence last Thursday night, that which is

men who know we'll Judge DeBrnlers un-
firing industry and attention TO business
need not, be assured that he.willldo rs tnfch
for them as will be in the power of any
representative they may send. 90:
But there is one other consideration which
he might have advanced in his favor, on this
subject; that is that the present aspect of
political affairs indicates the election of Lin
coin by the people, and it is very important
for our interests and for the interests of the
whole District that we have Il Representa-
tive at Washington City who is in favor
with the Administration. Judge Law will
be impotent at the capital unless Douglas
should be elected and few sane men can ex-
pect such event at the approaching cleo
ton. That our Representative may be in
fuential he must be in favor with the Adj
ministration and with the majority Of the
House, and Judge Law would occupy neith-
or position if he should be so lucky as to get
there.

THE CRY SCHOOLS commenced their Fall
and Winter terms yesterday. The two spa

Of this county are managed oy our adroit
Sheriff, 10y IL picture from real life, an actual
occurrence in convention matters; and up
to this time the Enquirer has manifested a
profound ignorance oa the subject-an ON
inous silence. The facts as we stated them
in reference to tie county delegate conven-
tion last spring, are substantially and actu-
ally true, and no one knows it better than
does the Sheriff, who with ma2isterial So
lemnity s'core the delegates, arranged the
committees, selected the chairman, and per-
mitted nothing except by his beck and nod.
He is the prince of Fanderburgh caucuses,
the generalissimo Of the Wood pecker
Guards, and the ruling spirit of the Court
House Clique. The Enquirer thinks he
needs no defense, for caucus management
and convention packing is his business.

OTTowA, Sept. l.-On returning to his

number of gentlemen were present, but no

lunched with thelegislature. The royal party
afterwards rode to Chaudere fails and the

party got down safe and the parties were
taken off in canoes to an island in the CEN
tire OF the bay, near which the canoe
races were held. The river was covered
with small boats and presented beautiful

trates this kind of contradictory. reasoning
in adjoining paragraphs OF its own edito-

.."Then in 1860 they (the Republicans
mo such party then) flung whisky in
the teeth of Democrats at every breath, but
now they hug whisky to their own hearts.
Now they are terribly in love with the ar
tice."
Then iD the next paragraph we find.
" Just give the Republicans the power and
they will pass prohibitory liquor law next
