RECORDERS COURT. = His Honor, the
City Recorder, had several cases on hand
yesterday, from whom fees were received,
and to whom justice was meted out.
First and foremost, the irrepressib1e
Squire Dirlam, of German Township
knowing that Justices must dive out of vi
olations of the law-got on a huge SPREE
as he generally does when he visits the
city, and made things lively generally. He
was arrested and lodged in Castle Darling
for the night, and in the morning fined
five dollars and costs, amounting in all to
eleven dollars and twenty cents. The
Squire was hunting security when last we
heard from him. II aoT -N
John Moorhead, another case of drunk
enness, was fined one dollar, and six dol
lars and twenty cents costs. ,sf.
af John Kelly for drunkenness and disor-
dsrly conduct, was fined three dollars, and
six dollars and twenty-fiv cents of cost
added to ii. John couldn't see the fine,
and was lodged in Castle Darling in de-
fault of payment. eFa
James Fayors, white man, and r. H.
Gaines, a colored Individual, got into a
difficulty in the Carpenter Block, and
were brought before His Honor for recon-
struction. After careful hearing of the
case, Favors was declared in the wrong,
and requiredsto pay the cost of the suit
three. dollars and Sninety-five cents.

"a UNION MEETING LAST NIGHT.-Owing to
a. misunderstanding the meeting at
Masonic Hall, last evening, was not an
nounced at all There was, therefore, no
other instrumentality used to call the
people together than the sending up of a
few sky rockets, and music by the Crescent
City Band. But whenever the Band is out,
the people in considerable numbers are
always near, and, consequently, Masonic
Hall was quickly filed with an earnest
and Intelligent audience as soon as it was
ascertained that a speech was to be made.
Alex. G. Donald Esq, of Princeton, favor
ed the crowd with a logical, forcible and
interesting address of about an hour and a
half in length. att NtiA E8g
While the audience was collecting, John
J. Chandler President of the Club, told
them if they would come forward and
take their seats, he had something good to
tell them. He then proceeded to read the
dispatches announcing the result of the
Maine election, which was received with
great enthusiasm.
Mr.. Donald, on being introduced to the
audience, began his address by saying that
twenty-five years had elapsed since he had
addressed an Evansville audience on poll
t1cal topics. Many and great changes had
taken place since then. He recognized but
lew faces present of those who were famil-
lar to him at that time. Like the city it.
SELL the faces of old acquaintances
had almost grown out of recol-
lection He knew our city as a
boy, when it was but village, and he
could scarcely realize that it was now Sec
ond in population and first in commercial
importance in the State. He was proud to
testify that she was also first in fidelity to
the principles of freedom. She had stood
the very Sentinel of liberty on the borders
of free institutions, and had never provegg
false to her trust. He then cited a case in
which an attempt was made, twenty-flve
years ago, to take a free negro from the
city, which the citizens prevented by force
The same spirit that would protect the op
pressed then, he reioiced to know still ami
mated her citizens. 70 4
But he had not come to call up reminis-
cences. He was before them for the pur-
pose of discussing the politicol questions of
the day. In doing so, he did not expect to
say anything new or strange. What he
would say, however, could do no harm.

to the man'who restores health and appe-

sores with box orSo of his wonderful and
all healing Salve. These two great specif-
les of the Doctors are fast superceding all
the stereotyped noStrums of the day. Ex-
traordinary cures by Maggiel's Pills and
Salve have opened the eyes oft public to
the inefficiency of the $50 called) remedies
of others, and upon which people have so
long lJIindly depended. Maggiel s Pills are
not of the class that a re swallowed by the
dozen, and of which every box full taken
creates an absolute necessity for another,
one or two OF Magg1eIs Pills sutfices TO
place the bowels in perfect order, tone the

quality makes the medicine very desirable
for the wants of delicate females. UIcerous
