WHAT VIZ LosE.-A very elegant
and accomplished lady from New Or
leans, who arrived in the city yester-
day, remarked to US that she would
be delighted to spend the Summer
in this city, if there were any hotel
accommodations. But to find com
Portable quarters for herself and fam
lily, she was obliged to go to the inter-
Tor city, Terre Haute. This is the
case with many every season. Hun
dreds who would stop here and spend
their money in our midst, are COM
PEELED to go elsewhere to find suitable
accommodations, Our hotels, they
admit, are well kept, setgood tables,
aud the 1preprieters and attaches are
polite and accommodating, but we
lack. hotel buildings with fine, large,
light, ventilated rooms. Mortifying
as it may be, we are compelled.to ad-
NIT it is so. Shall it ever be different?
Shall-w build railroads and establish
Steamboat lines to bring people here,
erect. fine opera7heqses, and establish
places of amusement to attract
to our city, and stiID have
no hotel at which to Iaceommodate
them when they come? h.

7 DEAR SIR; The managers of the
American Express Company have
deemed it,prudent, and for the best
interests Of the stockholders, to omit
the usual quarterly dividends, paya-
bic on this date, so that the entire
earnings of the company may be used
In carrying on to successful result
the competition with an organization
formed to black mail this and other es-
tablished Express companies. Neither
self-respect nor the permanent fnan-
ciaI advantageg2 Of stockholders, will
permit any compromise with the al
ready staggering company known as
the Merchants Union Express,
!, In making this explanation Of the
reasons for passing the dividend it is
due to those who hold the stock of
this companyIas an Investment, to.
caution them against parting with it
at present market prices, which are
much below its real value. "a Is eU-
ideptthqt competing ErpreSS Csonspa-

suit. The circulars of managers OF
the Merchants Union, sent out as
apologies for fresh assessments, and
the advertisements, published to
bolster up their sinking fortunes, con-
tain positive proofs of their falsity.
The extravaganza of their expendi-
ture, the recklessness of their. ar
rangement, the desperate expedients
to which they resort to secure
business done at a positive loss, and
to deprive other companies of the
services of their agents and employ |
ees. by trebiug the salaries paid |
them, all attest, the fact that they are
losing faith in an enterprise under |
taken to be abandoned whenever its
projectors could command their price.
Under these circumstances, the |
managers of this company are so con-
fdent of ultimate success that they
refuse to part with their stock, and it

that their partners. who have shared

A DARK AND THREATENING STORM.
-Fwo cofored citizens, steamboat
handswe presdme, had wonderful
war of words on the wharf, yesterday
morning, and, for the time, we
thought a fight was inevitable. A
large crowd of white men, and black,
gathered around. and no one seemed
disposed to stop the fight, but when
the blatant belligerants saw that no
one was disposed to interfere, they
concluded they would not crafty the
spectators by fight, and dried up.
There were no policemen in sight.
Some time before that two parties, off
boats, had-indulged in war of words
with mutual examinations and re-
examinations aud elaborate threats,

4 THAT GREAT DEMOCRATIC MEET
ING After a weeks loud calling
through their organs, for rally of the
Democracy and no-party- men of the
City, we expected big thing on Satur-
day night, and set out to find it. We
went to the Court House, but all was
darkness and silence. We concluded
that the Court House was too SMALL,
and looked at Masonic, Mozart, and
the new Turner's hall. We met a
distinguished Democratic orator, of
last year, and asked him where we
should go to find the Democratic, no.
party meeting He said that was jnst
what he was in search; Of: We agreed
to hunt itiup, and for that purpose we
scattered--became as ssdifusive' as
possible, pushed our nasal protuber-
a1ce" as far as we thought safe over
the boundaries of our own business.
Went every where, except to the
churches, but failed to find them. We
waited silently until yesterday, when
we met our Democratic acquaintance
and asked him if he found them. He
answered lugubriously, mol" andwe
come to the conclusion that there is
no Democratic party, or no party
party, in the City 70 meet.

+ RECORDERS COURT. - Two young
men of this city; whose parents are
highly respectable, and who deserve
more respectful treatment from their
sons, got drunk on Sunday and then
got into a quarrel, acting very naught-
lily, and finally brought up in the
county Jail. At the solicitations of
their respective fathers, they were let
out on promise to appear yesterday at
the Recorders Office, and settle. One
sof them kept his promise-came up
like little man, and liquidatedto the
tune of s. 20. The other failed to
appear, but the record stands open,
and the eyes of the police are open.
We should think that young men
who have respectable and indulgent
fathers, and kind, affectionate moth
ers, should have more respect for
their parents, than to taet thus, even if
they have no self-respect. There is
nothing surer than that p" those who

GREAT Doc QUESTION IN COURT
Christian Muth made complaint be-
fore Justice Stinson against police
man Capley, charging him with
having killed dog of the value of
SIS, the property of said Muth. by
feeding him poisoned meat, and
asked a Judgment for that amount.
{ Gen. Shackelford appeared for the
plaintiff, and Robert A. Hill, Esq,
for the defence. A jury Of twelve
men were called, the cause well and
truly to try, and a true verdict give
according to the law and evidence
The testimony was heard able and
eloquent arguments were made by the
counsel; an elaborate and learned
charge was made by the Court, and
the jury returned to the back room,
their verdict to consider and make
up. But alas, it would, not make up.
There were. nine obstinate men on
the jury who couldn't see any dam
ages, and the three others being unable
to change the nine obstinate minds,
after a long absence and the loss of
their dinners. agreed to Disagree As
they could not make up their minds
to hang the accused, they agreed to
hang themselves And thus endeth
the first legal lesson on the dog
question, and it is probably the only
one we shall ever have. 1a 4
