RECORDERS CoURT.-The Recorder
had quite a lot of the colored popula
ton before him yesterday, representa-
tives from that delectable institution
at the corner of Locust and Fourth
Streets. Sarah Davis, Julia Hubs,
Laura Warrick, Emma Lee, Eliza
Hubbs and Fred. Douglas, all appear
ed on charge of having INDUCED in a
general fight at the above named
place. They were each fined S. 65,
and all except one sent to the lookup
to board the amount out.
James Smith, one of the original
Smith family, perhaps, a stranger
within the gates of our city, INDUCED
so freely in busthead that he was
compelled to make his bed on the
sidewalk, and thus became an easy
prey for the police force. Smith, in
fine and costs, was taxed S. IS, and
sent to prison to board it out. Alto
gether, the Recorder did a good bust
ness yesterday.

which shows the place of residence
of every voter in the ward. Every
block is laid out, and the lots all
numbered, with the names of voters
residing in the houses oG the lots. In
cases where voters are free holders.
the names are written in red ink. The
names of persons who are not owners
of real estate are written in black ink
Where there are two or more votes
in house, their names are written on
the margin of the map. star or other
mark indicating the place of residence
of each man. With that map before
the Election Board, it will greatly
facilitate the voting, and will give
that body of men clear idea of the

PoPE COUNTY FAIR.-From Capt.
John Gilbert, of Golconda. who
passed through the city yesterday, en-
route to st. Louis, we learn that the
Pope County Fair, held last week,
was a magnificent success. The dis
play of farm products and domestic
animals was highly creditable-more
attention being given to these more
useful departments than to fast
horses, which are fast demoralizing
county and even State fairs. There
was exhibited one bushel of sweet
potatoes which averaged over three
pounds each. Pope County is one of
the most fertile and best cultivated
counties in Southern Illinois. and it
is not strange it gives live Republi-
can majority.

now called upon either to reject this State
or to violate our own Enabling act; which

Gold w Gre emba cks..A View
Of the Case.

In regard to the payment of Gov
ernment bonds there have been two
modes proposed: one to pay bot:.
principal and interest in gold, al
though it will be forty years before
the principal can be paid by the
country. The other is to pay off the
bonds in ''grccnbacks," cxtinguish-
lug them at once.
Without expressing any opinion
ON the subject, the purpose of this
article is simply to show the COM
parativc cost to the country ofthose
respective modes.
The interest on, say 80, 900, 900, :
600 bonds is 1920, 900, 900 gold an
nually; at conn ound the interest
alone would in twcnty-one years
amount to Sc, 900, 600, 900; in thirty
three years the interest will have
reached fourteen thousand millions
of dollars, ana in forty -four years
the interest alone will have attained
the climax OF thirty thousand mill
ions Of dollars in gold. TRis is the
naked truth as to what the country
will have to pay the bondholdcrs in
gold.
Paying of at once in "xrccn-
Backs the bondholders say, would
be the most disastrous of all modes,
because it would occasion SO great
q depreciation Of ''grccnbacks'
from their supcrabundance.
Suppose. however, the dcprccia-
ton should be ninety-ninc per cent
the loss to all the holders, to the
whole country, would be just two
thousand millions Of .'grecnbacks"
against loss of thirty two thousand
millions Of gold by the other process.
That VIC must pay that sum to tho
bondholdcrs. if the interest without
the principal shall continue to be
paid, is fixed fact, and PRESENTS q
serious subject for consideration. N.
