Library Association.

Editors Journal;
I was very much astonished to
learn from one of the Directors of the
Library Association, that the stock
holders have generally refused to pay
their subscriptions for this year, and
that consequently the Association is
out of funds. This ought not to be.
The Library is an ally of our Free
School system. 1t should be built
up year by year At least five hun
bred dollars a year should be ex-
pended for new books, and all the
good periodicals should be found on
its tables. VIII the Treasurer please
tell the public how much the Asso-
citation owes? How much is needed
to run it for yeA? And
when this is ascertained, let
US add to this $500 Tor new
books. and raise the amount 1t is
reported that the Directors are going
to shat the Library up, for wan OF
funds. | would rather hear of our
bonds going to protest in New York,
than 10 feel that we cannot support
one small library in a city bOastug Of
a population of 10000 Ii our citl-
zens can have a chance, believe they
will help to put the enterprise on its
legs. j. w.

EVANS WILL CAsE.-Many of our
readers are aware that there is an i'm
portant case pending in the Supreme
Court Of this State, involving the title
to a large amount of valuable prop
erty in this city. We refer to the
famous Evans will case, which has,
during the past two years, attracted
much attention, and been the subject
Of deep interest on the part of many.
At the commencement of the present
term of the Supreme Court this case
came up, and yesterday was set as the
time for the oral arguments, which
were to be made, we believe, by Judge
Iglehart on the part of the contest
ants, and Governor Baker on the
part of the claimants under the
will. On Wednesday morning Judge
Iglehart and Col. DENLY, his associ-
ate counsel, and Col. James q. Jones,
associate counsel with Gov. Baker
left fer indianapolis, to attend to the
case. The arguments were doubtless
delivered yesterday, though it may be
several days, or even weeks, before
the opinion of the court is announced
The decision will be awaited with
painful suspense on the part of many
The popularity of the case and the
great array of legal ability employed
will attract the attention of the legal
profession everywhere. Judge Par
rett, we are told, accompanied the
gentlemen above named to Indianap-
oils.

THE CATHOLIC FAIR.-The inter
est in the fair now In progress at
Schapker, Bussing & Co.'s Hall, for
the benefit of St. Mary's Catholic
Church, seems to be undated. The
sales are really immense, and it seems
as the fair draws to a close the ire
sistable damsels and danes grow
more and more ardent in their i'm
portunities to take chance, and we
looked every moment last night for
Capt. Thompson to turn the Edin-
burg into chances on sewing ma
chimes, embroidered slippers, bureaus,
spring mattresses, or bedsteads. We
notice too, that the eating department
continuss.to draw largely, and regret
ted that we did not lave the gastric
apparatus of an ostrich, that we
might have accepted all the invita-
tons to eat that we're extended to Us.
The Democratic Silver Band made
very fair music, and promise IN time
to become a credit to the city as
musicians.
Tonight the Fair proper will close,
and all sales,at private tables and all
raf1es will cease. On Saturday night
the articles remaining unsold VIII be
disposed Of at auction. Ten cents
admission fee will be charged the
proceeds to, be donated to the Orphan
Asylum Of this city, and this an
nouncement alone should secure the
largest attendance

RECORDERS CoURT.-Two negro
men, named WA. Wells alias = Brass
Knuckles," and Henry Williams,
were found by the police, on Wednes-
day night, in the hayloft of Mr.. j ohm
J. Chambers stable They seem to
have taken up their quarters there,
and were preparing there to spend
the winter. They had provided them
selves with sundry articles, useful and
ornamental. among which were about
three pecks Of apples, an umbrella or
two, silver spoon, and dinner bas,
ket stolen from Major Blythe Hynes.
The two had hearing before Recorder
Nelson, yesterday, who held them to
answer in the sum Of 5000 each, and
in default Of proper security they
were sent back to Jail. Wells is a
kind of desperate character, and
escaped the penitentiary, on charge
of burglary, by mere technicality Of
the law. 1t is probable he will not be
quite so lucky this time. The keno man,
who has been running the Parlor
Club Rooms, was in court yesterday
trying to arrange for giving the re-
quisite security for an appeal or stay
of execution. He complained, and
not without some show of FEASIBILITY,
that it was somewhat summary and
unfair that he should have been
picked up and fined Immediately upon
going into business, while like es-
adjustment had been allowed to run
unmolested, until its proprie tor had
accumulated $4,000 or $4,000, as he
averred had been the case. He says
having lost his health and being short
of funds, he had come here and set
up in this business to make money to
enable him to go into some other
business, and had thus, as he thought,
been unfairly set upon before he had
got sufficiently forehanded to stand
the pressure. We believe public
opinion is pretty decided upon the
subject of longer tolerating such
schools of vice, and think the pro-
prietors of both institutions would do
we'll to gracefully yield to this public
opinion and seek a more reputable
and legitimate calling. We give the
advice in the spirit of real kindness.

PERsoNAL.-Mr A. J. Calkins, the
sprightly editor Of the Princeton
CLARION, was in the city yesterday,
looking we'll, and feeling we'll, as all
Republican editors generally do
Mr.. George w. Stanford, member
of the Tobacco Brigade, and the last
of the Corps of which Eek VaB R;per
is GeneYalissimo, arrived from New
York, via Canada and Niagara Falls,
whitherhe had gone on brief bridal
tour. His fair young bride accom-
panies him to the West.
Mr.. j. A. Smith, of New York,
and Agent of the Peoples Fast
Freight Line, is also in the city.
Mr.. VIM. Sheets, of Indianapolis
the veteran book bindery man of the
State, is in the city, stopping at the
Sherwood.
Tom. Dudley, from the great to-
bacco house of Brashear, Sors & Co.
of Cincinnati, is stopping at the
American.

Too SOoN.-Notwithstanding the
weather during this afternoon was
unusually favorable for building pur-
poses, the storm has come too 5000
for some. A number of buildings
have been caught unfinished and un-
rooted, with the prospect of being
CO pleted this winter gloomy enough.
Among the number is the new City
" Lock up" which is almost ready
iot the last tier of joists and the roof.
One day more of good weather would
have completed the walls, when the
roof could have been put on, even if
the weather should be CO and un-
pleasant. There are many private
buildings caught in like circum-
stances.

THE SECOND Snow STORM-The
second snow storm of the season set
IN yesterday morning between two
and five o'clock, and ragged with con-
o'clock in the afternoon. At two
O'Clock yesterday morning the atmOs
phere was quite mild, with occasional
showers of rain after II o'clock, the
wind, for the previous SO or 48 hours,
having blown from the southeast.
Yesterday morning the wind sudden
" chopped around to the west north
west, and blew keenly. 1t is probable
that not less than three inches of
snow fell, a large proportion OF 1t
melting as it fell, the ground being
wet and unfrozen up to three o'clock
Yesterday afternoon. During the af-
ternoon the large white gulls were to
be seen flying close to the surface OF
the water over the river, an unerrlng
indication of cold weather. The
storm has prevailed along the whole
length of the river and nOrthward to
the Lakes, where heavy gale was ex-
perienced, and all the railroads are
blocked with snow.
At shutdown last night the sky was
almost clear and the mercury was
rapidly going down, giving promise
of bitter cold night. The change
was very great and very keenly felt
and leads to unpleasant anticipations
relative to an improvement of navi-
CATION on our Western rivers, and
indeed, suggests the question whether
we are to have any navigation at al
for the next thirty days. Our theory
, has been all Fall that the river woulC
, close before the 10Th Of January, and
unpleasant to anticipate as it may be
= we are rather strengthened thar
! staggered in our belief, though olde
and wiser heads predict an open win
! ter and fair to good navigation. w
hope they are right and We are wrong
