Kentucky Circulation.

The following appeared IN the
Evansville Courier of Wednesday, the
18th inst:
/ By mistake in the office-miscount the
Weekly Courier last week was not sent to
about 700 of our Kentucky subscribers.
Yet with or without this we are prepared
to show the Journal that we have ten SUBJ
scribers in Kentucky to the Journals one
Why, we send more Daflies in one day to
Henderson than all the subscribers the
Journal has in Kentucky put together. L
In the JouRNAiL.s Of Thursday, In
an article on the subject. we denied
the truth of the above statements,
and challenged the Courier to an ex-
animation, as follows:
We propose that the proprietors of the
Courier select one disinterested citizen of
Evansville, and the JOURNAL Company
will select a second, and these two select a
third, who shall compose a Committee to
examine and determine the question of
Kentucky circulation. To this Committee
the proprietors of both papers shall SUBJ
mitsa statement of the number of bona
fide subscribers at each post Office in Ken
lucky; and the Committee shall verify the
truth of the statements made by a
thorough examination of the books, pa
pers, and employees in each establish
ment, and by such other persons as they
may choose; the result of their examina-
ton to be made in writing.
This proposition the Courier has
neg ected to accept, and up to the
present time steadfastly refuses to
make any reply whatever. We claim
that it is matter of much Importance
to advertisers, and that it cannot fair
~ refuse to have the Committee APP
pointed and the examination made.

What the Northern Democrats would
Have Done, and What the South
Owes Them.

A short time ago ,Ex-Gov. ORR, Of
South Carolina, one of the most in
fluential and able. of the Southern
politicians. made speech at Charles
ton, in which he arraigned theDemos
cratic party Of the North for its base
abandonment of the. South after it
inducedits people TO go intos rebel
lion, and varied them not to place
too much reliance upon it in future. 8
The New York Correspondent Of
the Charleston Courier in reply to
this speech and other similar utter
ances by prominent Southerners, es-
tablishes the following points,:
"a. That the only friends the South have
are in the Democratic party.
81. 2. That the Democratic party would
have stopped the war and secured South
ern independence had they not been
overborne by the sentiments of the
Northern people,"
D. That the Democratic party would
have redeemed its promise to stand by the
South and prevent coercion, il at the
critical moment it had not been, deserted
by many of its promin emit menu 3 -
A. The consistent Democrats who were
for throwing themselves into the breach in
aid of the Southern rebellion now consti-
tnte the @4baclxsbone OF the Democratic
party and should not now be abandoned
by the South.
The people will appreciate this candid
statement of the Democratic situation.

The Crowning Enormity.

The concluding paragraph of the
following extract from the Wash
ington correspondence of the Balti-
more Gazene refers to the rumors
lately circulated in Washington and
Philadelphia, concerning a confsca-
ton bill:
GA bill repudiating debts due bv
the Government to Southern men
who sided with the Confederacv. has
been passed by both Houses. The
injustice of this measure will be more
apparent when it is considered that
such parties are held to IL rigid ac-
count for even constructive liabili-
ties. Indebtedness to the Post Office
Department for stamps, envelopes,
&c, which, under the circumstances,
were of no possible value to any one,
and which in no way took dollar
ont of the public treasury, is set up
and payment enforced, even where
the parties are dead and their estates
insolyent, by the unlawful withdrawal
of mail facilities, SO that the money
may be wrung from entirely innocent
people.
MANY other acts OF similar charac
ter have either already been passed
or are upon the tapis. / hear Of a
bill which has been prepared pro-
viding for extensive contiscation of
Southern landed estates. The idea
that the military bill is the crowning
enormlty; that it contains the ultima
tum of the radicals; that it is inteud-
ed as tinality. is openly derided by
all prominent members of the domi-
nant party. They say they have APP
piled the entering wedge'-their Ill
innate design is to seize upon every
inch Of Southern soil. [ understand
that the confiscatiou bill I have al
luued to was seen by Mr.. Johnson,
your Senator, and that this know
ledge of the existence OF such a pro-
ject is alleged by him in palliation of
his vote upon the military bill 1t
must be obvious, however, that sub
mission to the outrageous demands
already made is very Intellectual
way of preventing further enormi-
ties"
