q. Four HUNDRED PER CENT--The
Codrier editor who saved four hun
dred per cent by using coal oil instead
of lamps, charges the local editor of
this paper with fifteen falsehoods, and
in avain attempt-to proveAthe charge,
perpetrates sixty silly falsehoods of
his own directly, and one or two by
implicationl We dOinotl refer to- the
matter to deny his charges, as we will
not insult the intelligence of this
eohimuhfty by suprosing for a mo-
ment that anybody who reads the
| Courier believes a word in it. A dis
patch was written to send to Cincin-
natl, stating that 10000 persons were
on the streets and at the Depot Mon
day night to welcome Gov. Morton.
Any one can see the original manu-
script at the Telegraph Office. 1t was
SO sent. By an error of the operator
at the Office in Cincinnati, or by a
typographical error in the Commercial
Office, it appeared 10000 in that paper.
The Courier editor says we sent it
10000, when he knows we did no such
thing. We are willing to trust our rep
utation for veIacity and candor in our
reports, whether in the JOURNAL or
elsewhere, in the hands of this or any
other community in which we are
known, until tits assailed by a man
who has some repution for truth and
yeracitys except bad one, even
among those Of his own political party.
Nor DIsCoURAGED.-The contract
ors ON the Sycamore Street sewer, not
discouraged, went to work yesterday
morning to repair damages and take
a new start on their work. The
chasm presents a frightfu1 aspect, and
looks as if the earth had sunk, car
rying down a building with it, the
ragged timbers projecting from the
earth, Yesterday they finished up
the inlets. to the sewer at the lower
corner Of First Street and excavated
on the corners of Water Street, pre-
paratory to finishing up the inlets
there. This will save the levee from
further washing, and will allow the
large and dangerous holes already
washed out to be filed up. "A most
desirable consummation.
PtrT1Na II THRotdH.-The bowl
der boys let into Second Street yes
terday, and by night had completed
more than one-third of the square be-
tween Locust and Walnut. From the
manner in which these men. drive
ahead, one would suppose they were
working on a wager, and men deter
mined to win. @
The examination in the murder case
yesterday, occupied so much of our
time, that we were prevented from
taking our usual rounds to gather UP
unconsidered trifes. But we judge
nothing of startling interest trans

Governments are weak. The tampering

Money is rather firmer, apparently from

FoRTREss MoNRoE, July 23.-The U. s.
steam tug Geneva returned yesterday
morning from the scene OF the disturbance
on the eastern shore Of Virginia, near
Drummondtown, between the Inhabitants
and the negroes. 1t appears the trouble
originated In hand of white men hunting
down some negroes for the purpose Of
searching for one named Couch, who few
days previous had attempted to cut the
throat of white man. The negroes were
robbed of their arms and money, when they
made complaint to the civil authorities, who
issued warrants for the arrest of eleven of
the whites. The l4th inst. was set apart
for the hearing of the case. at a village
named Woodstock. On that day about
one hundred we'll armed white men
were assembled, swearing they would
kill every negro who attempted
to testify, aud threatened the magistrate,
Mr.. Dix, with violence If the, proceedings
were continued. The magistrate seeing the
state of affairs, indorsed upon the warrants
Of arrest the impossibility of conducting
the trial under such circumstances, and in
formed French, agent of the Freedmen's
Bureau, of his action. The latter officer
advised the negroes to quietly return to
their homes, and while they were doing so
they were pursued by the armed whites.
until they reached places Of safety. Upori
the arrival of the troops the white men
dispersed in every direction, aud not one of
them could be found after Almost rigid

The Sengerbund FeStivaI-Musi-
cal Ceremonies Monday.


LOUISVILLE, July 4.-The Fourteenth
Annual Festival of the National Sanger-
bund Society commenced here this morn
ing. FOrty-tOur Societies are repre-
sented, embracing delegations from nearly
every large city in the Union. Our city
presents a holiday appearance.
German and American flags are floating
in juxtaposition from public and private
buildings, and every preparation has been
made for the entertainment of many thOus-
ands of guests. Houses are thrown open,
and genuine Kentucky hospitality is every
where apparent.
The grand procession this afternoon
passed through the principal streets, under
evergreen arches and elaborate decorations,
and finally reached magnificent hall on
Broadway, erected for the occasion,l and
occupied the stage, where accommodations
had been made for over one thousand per-
sons. Mayor Lithgow eloquently welcom-
ed the musical societies to the hospitalities
of the city, and was gracefully and beau
tifully replied to by Professor Hahmaur in
behalf af the Sengerbund.
Professors Sofelenski, Hast and Scoller
directed the musical festivities, which were
received with great enthusiasm and ap-
plause. In the evening, the various Socie-
ties, accompanied by one thousand of our
citizens, held Soiree at Woodland Garden,
where instrumental music were discoursed
till late hour. The festivities continue

NEW YORK, July 25.-Cholera has some-
what abated. Only five cases were report

di case. The cholera on the Islands was no
less severe. Three deaths have occurred,
and large number of troops are i'll with
diarrh9a. lt
The mortality report for the week end

A voluminous report has been made by
the commission to Investigate the crueltles
perpetrated by Mrs. Henry Abrahams, of
King William county Va, upon her SER

Of June freed girl named Martha Annie,
aged II years, was brought to the hospital
In Richmond. The surgeon states that
there were seven ulcers, all the result of
burns, and all produced within two or three
weeks; the largest was nearly two inches In
diameter. In addition to these, her entire
body was almost covered with scars, some
old and some covered with recent scabs,
some the result Of burning, and some the
result of whipping. She had been 50

Not a very Healthy PIace-Scarc-
ity of Carrency-Friday Fixed
Upon for Adjournment.
New York, July 25.-The morning pa
pers have the following specials from
Washington:
The committee appointed to investigate
the Memphis swindle will not report till
next session of Congress. Their investi-
cations so far have disclosed vast amount
Of official corruption in high places, but as
the record cannot be completed before the
adjournment, 1t has been deemed best to
postpone the report In order that all the
facts can be obtained.
1t is not improbable that both Nebraska
and Colorado will be admitted before the
close of the session. If a vote can be
reached the Colorado veto will be overrid-
den, as many OF those who opposed the bill
when it was under discussion, and voted
against 1t on Its passage, are now convinc-
ed of the necessity for all the loyal votes
that can be got into the Senate to be pre-
pared for the contingency of such recon-
str6ction as may result from the Presidents
policy.
1t is rumored that the President will veto,
on the grounds of nconstltutionality, all
bills granting telegraph companies rights
te build lines on mail routes.
An Internal Revenue Inspector has just
returned from Danville, Va, where he went
to take action against the Mayor of that
city for forging internal revenue stamps
amounting to over $4,000, upon his tobacco
recently sold in New York. He found such
a strong resentment there against the Gov
ernment and its officers, and the Mayor so
bold and defiant, while confessing the for
gerry, that he was glad to get Walkers note
for the amount of stamps forged.
| The immense quantities of mutilated c1r-
rency redeemed and destroyed has created
a drouth In this class of Government circu-
lation, and orders are pouring in daily by
1 telegraph and letters from Banks all over
the country, asking supplies. The Super
intendent of printing is working all his
available force extra hours to keep up with
the demand.
The President and Secretary Seward, it
is now positively stated, will attend the
Douglas Monument inauguration at Chica-
go, which takes place after the Philadelphia
Conventions:

cent caucus agreed Tonight to name FRI
