HIGH RENTs.-There is a general COM
plant ip this city about high rents. This
effects directly the Iaboring classes, and the
mechanics who locate in our city, and de-
serves correction. AT the present time, no
investment of money, perhaps, pays
better per cent. than that made in houses
for rent. This affects the industrial inter
ests of the city to such an extent that many
of the best mechanics leave our city, while
Others who otherwise would locate here,
decline doing so for that reason alone. In
yesterdays paper we copied an article from
the New York Commercial Advertiser, in
which the great decline in rents in New
York is mentioned, and general decline
may be expected everywhefe. That Evans
willie landlords should continue to hold out
for war prices, we cannot conceive it 10 be
the interest of the city, especially, when
we have so large manufacturing interest
as we have, and so large population that
depend on renting houses. We have mo-
ticed that building committees have been
appointed in many western cities, and
large numbers of houses have been erected
for the benefit of the class above men,
toned. The result has been greatly in
creased population, with full supply OF
labor for all classes of industrial pursuits.
If a similar course was pursued in Evans
ville surely the results would be as favora-
BILE to the interests of this city If. Is
stated by the papers of other cities, gen.
eraI reduction of rents is now taking place,
will it not have a tendency to draw from
our manufacturing interests, and our in
dustrial enterprises, the best mechanics
and most faithful 1aborerse Will they not
incline to go where they can do the best?

Mr.. Mccormick was fined S. 90, with
"a 05 costs for permitting filth to be thrown

after having been notified to do so. In
consideration of the fact thathe had partly
