Grayyllle and MattoOn Railroad.

Olney Democrat that this road is

pie to regret over-weening confidence
in representations Of designing rail

For the past three weeks the peo-

clouds oVerhangiug our railroad en-
terprise dispersed and the knOtty i'm.

of our city have to some considerable
extent credited the contractors for
dry goods and provisions, and 1t
is a aigh- handed robbery to deprive
the same of their legitimate dues.
Hundreds of laborers depending
upon their toll for daily bread, are
now out of employment, frustrated in
the hope of getting their Fay, and

MIR. DENBY's CARD.

We publish in another place a few
lines from Col. DENLY, taking excep-
ton to a portion of an article which
appeared In yesterdays Courier, upon
the subject of the Straight Line
Road. We certainly did not intend
to impute anything dishonorable to
Messrs. Iglehart and DENLY. and We
never knew, until now, that it was
considered disreputable for a lawyer
to undertake a case where he believed
the law to be sgainst him. The in
tention Of the lawgivers may be very
plainly against a lawyers case, and
yet the language of the law may be
made to convey a very different mean
ing. This was the idea we intended to
suggest, and we regret that-like both
lawgivers and lawyers sometimes-we
failed to express our meaning clearly.
The Courier's explanation is not
very ingenious. La his card, Mr..
DENBY asserts that Judge EdLEHEART
and himself did not give their opin-
ion of the law to the County Commits
sioners as a client, and he pronounces
the statement that he had been hired
to give an opinion that the law was
different from what he believes to be,
false and slanderous." The Co1dter,
however, insists, by Implication, that
Messrs. Denny and IGLEHEART did
advise the Commissioners that the
law was one thing, when in reality it
was an altogether different thing.
The very statement which Col. DENBY
pronounoes false and slanderous. y
The joke is, the Courier can see moth
ing =" disreputable in lawyer pur-
suing a course that to be charged
with, is regarded by Col. DENNY as
slanderous., But We are not sur
prised at this. We can not expect a
great deal in this direction Of an edi.
tor whose ideas of morality are 80
confused as not to allow him to detect
any difference between selling liquor
and preaching the gospel on Sunday,
and to insist that one is equally as
obnoxious to tho law as the other.

Postal Decision Concerning News"
paper Supplements.

Many editors Of country newspapers
are in the habit Of folding bills, cir

ing them through the mail. As these
notices would be charged circular
postage ordinarily, the Post Office
Department has adopted regulations
preventing, and all parties interested
are warned to refrain frOm.breaking the
rules. The following is the regulation:
Publishers of newspapers may, with
out suhiecting themselves to extra
postage, fold within their regular
issue a supplement But in all such
cases the added matter must be a
genuine supplement or appendage to
the newspaper in question, and of the
same essential character, c0nUt ying

interest. Publishers of newspapers
cannot send specimen numbers OF
their newspapers to POstmasters and
others without pre- paying postage
thereon. Prospectuses of newspapers,
whether accompanying the same or
sent separately, are to be charged as
circulars, and postage required IN ad-
vance.

TIE Green Bay AoIcocase, one of
the oldest. most consistent and reli-
able Democratic Journals published
in Wisconsin, where the negro enjoys
the right of suffrage, says: The
whole subject is a dead issue, and in
passing from theory to practice we are
glad it is so near a solution. IF the
African race In the Southern States
were on a par with the colored people
as we fad them among US, we should
have little fear of the result. We
have no more prejudice against q man
on account of the color of his skin
than the color Of his coat. We have
watched with interest the course of
life of the colored people of this State,
and. so far as we have been able to
determine, they are well qualifed@o

privilege. They are industrious, tenn

that they have but little confidence in
the legality Of the assessment.
We warn the Commissioners that
they must not be deceived with the
sophism that all who signed the petit
ton have pronounced in favor of the
legality of the tax. Such is not the
fact. The petitioners signed the Pc
tition with the understanding that
the election should be ordered, y u
could be legally done, leaving the
question of legality to be determined
by the County Commissioners and
their attorney. We warn the Com
missioners further, that if they order
the election before the legality of the
tax is decided in the courts. they will
