The People nominated q ticket for Com
missioners Of Public Works on Saturday,
which they are bound to elect. Among
the many excellent names presented to the
Convention, it would have been difficult to
select three men Of higher character and
better business capacity than A1essrs.
WARNER, CARPENTER and G1SDE1LE.
Never within our knowledge Of city poll
tics and city conventions, has there been
so little scheming and 1cg-rol1ing to pro-
cure any nominations whatever. The re-
suit seems to have been unprecedented
and unexpected, and hence, when we coll
slider the fitness of the gentlemen named,
all the more satisfactory to the masses Of
the people.
Mr. CARPENTER is IN old resident Of the
North Division, well known both to the
business and laboring men Of the city. As
3 member Of the Common Council, to
which he WAS elected in a Democratic
ward, he gave not only dignity and charac-
ter to that much abused office, but marked
industry and efficiency. No man ever had
more weight, in mental or moral point
Of view, in the A1dermanic Office than
Benjamin Carpenter. There is no man IN
the North Division. or any other Division
Of Chicago, whose character for probity
stands higher than his, or whose election
will conduce more to the public confidence
in the new Board
Mr. WARMER is q member Of the well
known firm of Gates, Warner g. Chalmers,
Of the Eagle Iron Works. working man
Of eminent skill in his business, clear and
comprehensive intellect, and unblemished
integrity. BE is peculiarly fitted to guard
the interests Of the city in all matters relat-
ing to contracts for labor and material for
the public works, and will exercise a
sound, practical discretion in all matters
which may come before the Board.
Mr. GtSDE11E is practical engineer Of
i1rst-slass qualifications. Hls articles rub
hahed in this and other city papers On the
possibility Of enlarging the Illinois and
Michigan Canal to steamboat capacity.
have attracted general attention in this
State and elsewhere. The city will secure
the services Of a gentleman of excellent
scientific attainments by electine Mr.
GrEDELIE tothe Board Of Public Works,
We have said thus much Of the Republi~
can nominees, not in the way of partI
adulation, but in the strict letter Of down
Eight truth, and the people of Chicago will
endorse what we say, in Tuesdays cleo
ton, by majority that will astou1d the

Lenity and forbearance have only nureed
the viper into lde-tts :sar has begun! It
may not be the present duty of each one
Of Us to enlist and march to the sound of
bugle and drum; but there is duty, not
less important, which is in the power of
every man and woman in Chicago, and in
the North, TO perform--it is to be loyal in
heart and word to the cause of the United
States- From this hour, let no Northern
man or woman tolerate in his or her presence
the utterance Of one word of treason. Let
expressed rebuke and contempt rest On
every man weak enough to be anywhere
else in this crisis than on the side of the
country against treason-of Lincoln and
Scott against Davis and Twigg5- God
against Baal. We say t. the Tories and
hckspittles in this community, q patient

The act Of the rebels has inaugurated

try Is now for War. From all the North
goes up cry. for re-assertion Of the
outraged authority Of the Govern
ment at any cost The President
and his advisers, moved by patriot
ism which <las been kind1ed in ev-
cry mans breast, are responding to it with
the earnestness which bids us hope for
great results. The country, let them be
warned, will be content with no halfway
measures. Time for throwing turf has
passed Let the iron and leaden missives
fly. Let the full power of twenty millions
Of men united in common cause, be put
forth. Let the money be poured out.
Let the hammers fesound in the armories.
Let the men march forth. 4 quick, short
sharp but decisive contest made by the
Government with force which nothing
can resist, must re-establish its authority
wherever the old flag has been wont to
float So says Pennsylvania, Ohio, Masea-

loyal State will acquiesce. Let not uli-
nois be behind in the patriotic work. =.

to the murder. Captain Miller testified on Fri.
day last that he did not give any orders rela.

that, on the day following the shooting, he
stated to the friends of Sergeant Murphy, that
they had no cause to be alarmed that he had
given the order, and they had done nothing
more than their duty. The arrest, he said, was
only matter of form, and they would be re.
leased in few days.
Lieutenant j. Z. Wiett, who would not be
able to be present at the examination, was
sworn, and testified as follows Sergeant Muir.
ply said he had some clue 10 man who was
q sccessionist, and showed a paper with the
names of persons from whom he could get the

him arrest him. Captain Miller replied, that
he would have no man arrested until he had
affidavit of the fact from responsible persons
and told them for God Almightys sake not to
do anything rash, to bring disgrace upon the
company, which already had bad name.
Witness thinks Boyds name was on the paper.
Murphy went back to the captain, and asked
him whether he should bring him dead or alive,
and the precauton was repeated, "not to do
anything rash, to act with discretion"
Captain Miller then gave bail for his appear.
