the Crescent City Silver Band to the
Tarascon last night was one of the
most pleasing affairs of the kind we
have ever listened to. The capabili-
ties of the Band are almost inexhaust-
able, and what they can not play is
not worth looking after. Capt. Jim.

princely munifcence, desires us to
present his thanks for the compli-
ment, and his high admiration for

A SEDUCTION CAsE.-On or about
the 23d of April, girl whose name
we shall not now mention, got on the
train at Patoka to go to Princeton.
By some accident she was carried by
that place, and came as far as Evans
vile. On reaching this city, she was
taken to the Washington House, but
having no money, she asked to be
shown the residence of a friend she
had in this city-a physician, with
whom she had been acquainted before
she came to the city. She was taken
to the Office of the physician, but as it
was growing late, he, of course, was
not there. Learning that the doctor
could not be found, she asked to be
shown the residence of the con-
ductor on whose train she had
come to the city. At this point a
hickman volunteered his services to
take her to the conductors house,
who had proposed that she should re-
turn to her home on the train the fol-
lowing day, free of charge, She ac-
cordingly got into the hack, and after
being driven about the city till late
hour, was informed that the conduc-
tors house could not be found. She
proposed to get out of the hack at
once, and seek lodgings herself, but
she was told that she would be in
danger if she did, that the negroes
would offer her violence. She was at
last driven to a boarding house in
the city, where, as she stated, she was
seduced.' She returned to Princeton,
but the story of her disgrace had
already reached her friends there, and
she returned to this city and sought
protection of q the author of her
shame. ffety.s-sH
Since that time, and until a week
ago, she has been living with the man
referred to. He at last abandoned
her, and her landlord becoming clam
orous for her board bill, she sought
the advice of an attorney, yesterday
morning, and a prosecution was about
to be commenced against the man.
Finding that he was in rather close
quarters, he, agreed to marry her, and
thus ended the story She is repre-
scented to be an unsuspecting country
girl, not at all used to the ways of the
city, and of very respectable, though
humble, parentage; she. herself, hav-

PUBLIC HALL.-It is a little sur
prising that we have so long been
without public hall of sufficient ca
pacity to meet the demands of the
times. Some time since it was pro-
posed to erect cheap building in the
city, sufficiently large to hold fairs,
Sabbath Schools, Sabbath School con-
ventions, public meetings of all kinds,
but of late we have heard nothing of
the. contemplated enterprise. For a
few thousand dollars, a structure
could be made that would greatly
relieve the wants of our people, on
such occasions. For all festivities,
and miscellaneous public meetings,
such building is greatly needed, and
especially for the purpose of holding
Mission Sabbath School in. The
fall campaign is coming, and we have
no building suitable for holding pub
lie meetings. The old Wigwam "
served to answer that purpose, but
that is now gone. Shall we not have
building suitable for such purposes

The only reason the +" Courier man u

EVANSVILLE MECHANIcs.-We
have often noticed with pleasure the
importance and number of the manu-
factories of our city, as compared
with others of the SEINE, size, or even
with larger population, in this State.
There is another feature of impor
lance to our city we desire to notice,
and that is the energy and competence
of our mechanics. We believe that
there is not in the West, city that
is better supplied with first class me-
chanics than ours. Among the many
enterprising and energetic of this class,
who are deserving of notice and COM
mendation, we know of none more
so than the Liant Bros, contractors
and builders. The style of work exc
cuted by them is inferior to none, and
when once they begin house, it is
pushed forward to completion in the
shortest possible time. One of the
brothers WIS a faithful and trusty
soldier for three years, and during
that time he exhibited a character
istic zeal for the cause he was fighting
to maintain. He is now no less good
mechanic and citizen, than he was a
faithful soldier. These gentleman
have constructed the most, if not all,
the sewers in our city, and in all cases,
we believe, their work has given full
satisfaction to the City Council, and
that body have ever exercised the
most rigid care over all Improvements
made for the city, requiring that the
contracts be fulfilled to the letter.
We. do not. Of course, speak in the
interest of those. gentlemen. to the
disparagement of other mechanics,
for the competence and energy of all
with whom we are acquainted is be-
yond question. ,f.,4lrl

The Crescent City Silver Band held
a meeting last night to express their
sentiments of respect to- the memory
of Captain A. MENTER, the celebrated
leader of the famous MENTER Band
of Cincinnati. Most Of the Crescent
City were. intimately acquainted with
Captain MENTER, and on the occasion
of his last visit to this city, a few
months ago, he spent the evenings i
most delightful intercourse with them
at their Band room, being then in the
prime of life, the vigor of manhood,
and giving promise of7many days Of
honor and happiness.
After the meeting was called to
order, the Band played a beautiful,
though melancholy, dirge, whereupon
the following resolutions were unani-

mouslYs adopted.

WHEREAS We have heard with pro-
found regret of the premature death of our
professional brother, Capt. "A. Menter, of
Cincinnati, who was stricken down in the
prime of manhood, by an assassin, on the
night of the 5th inst; and being DESTROYS
of expressing our admiration of his many
noble qualities, and his high attachments
in his profession, as well as our deep sor-
row at his untimely death; Therefore,
RESOLVED, That we have heard with I'M
feigned grief of the death, by violence, of
Captain A.. Menter the distinguished mu-
stefan, the accomplished gentleman, the
loyal and patriotic citizen, and the true
and faithful friend. t'
ResoIced, That in his death, society has
lost good citizen, our profession a bright
ornament, and his family faithful and
affectionate husband, father, and pro-
tector.
RESOLVED, That as manifestation of our
respect and esteem for his many noble
and endearing qualities of head and heart,
as well as our sorrow for his death, we
wear the usual badge of mourning for
thirty days.
Res0lUed, That we earnestly sympathize
and condole with his bereaved and grief
stricken family, so cruelty robbed of hus-
band, father and protector, and pray that,
" He who tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb" may be their hope, their provider
and defence.
RESOLVED, That copy of these resolutions
be transmitted to the family of the deceas-
ed, and that copy be furnished the Evans
Vile JOURNAL for publication, with the
request that the other city papers, and the
Cincinnati papers, be requested to copy
the same.
