The New Albany Ledger hints at
some Infamous crime, imputed to some
subordinate official of Floyd County,
and for which he viii shortly be tried.

brutality which would disgrace Hot

Journal, you are too hard on Dick.
You know he was a vallient man, for
he said at Fenian meeting, a short
time since, he would fight for swate
Ireland if his services were needed.
He was probably well aware at the
time that the Finnegans were adj
vancing on the United States. ~. a,

We know that Dick is warm
hearted Irishman, little cratic
sometimes, but was good Union man,
during the dark days Of the rebellion.

The editor of the Evansville JOUR

knowledge of geography. We are
glad to hear it, because the JOURNAL
man has been to school, is a college
bred chap, and capable of,judging.
But say, JOURNAL, don't hatter us too
much all in one day; little at time
will last longer-Mddison Courier

the Indiana side of the river. Fan
yourself little if this adulatior
