REcoRDER's CoURT.-One case only
was tried yesterday. John G. Viii
liams, for INDUCING in the luxury Of
a plain drunk, was fined "a 70.
The business before the City Re
corder, is decreasing steadily, owing
to the way the offenders are put
through by Marshal Wundcrlich and
the City Recorder, and the wholesome
influence oxerted by the Grand Jury
and the Criminal Court. The lookup
bill for May, June aud July last
was SAT- %; and for August, Septem-
Der and October only 1861 90, making
a falling off in the last three months
of 5000 20. We presume that few
cities can make a showing like the
above. AS the number Of inhabitants
increase, the arrests increase. Evans
vile is nov one of the most orderly
cities in the West.

FHE TOBACCO WAREHoUsE Use.
Decision of the Supreme Court.
A vexed Queation settled.

1t will be remembered that some
time last Summer, Martin. Gardner d
Co. leased, for a term of SO years,
from Willard Carpenter, that portion
of the wharf lying between Division
and Pine Streets. for the purpose OF
greetings splendid tobacco warehouse
thereon. Arrangements were made
for building at once, but as soon as
the work was commenced, an i%njGnc-
ton was granted by the Court, 'and
work was stopped. After considering
the question, it was agreed between
the attorneys for the city and the at
torneys for Martin. Gardner & Co., to
make this q test case, and submit the
question on agreed facts, to the Com.
mon Pleas Court. Judge Morris S.
johnson, presiding. The ease was
decided by Judge johnson adverse to
Martin, Gardner & Co., and an appeal
was taken by them to the Supreme
Court Of Indiana, 10 which Court it
has been pending for some time. The
following telegram was received by
the firm yesterday through Judge
Iglehart and AFRO Dyer, their attor-
neys:
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. %, 1869.
AFRO DYER-Martin, Gardner &
Co. reversed. All right.
ASA IGLEHART.
Thus it will be observed that the
suit has been decided in favor of
Martin, Gardner & Co., and against
the city. A very fue point of law
was involved in this case. The city
could have condemned this properly
for public purposes and purchased
the m But in such cases it is
necessary to tender the purchase
money for the land, and as the city
had not the funds to spare for this
purpose, that course was left out OF
the question. Willard Carpenter,
through his attorneys. claimed that if
j. the city would not condemn and pur-
chase the said property, it could not
prevent him FROM using it for private
purposes; and the Supreme Court has
conceded in this opinion.
1t it too late in the season for Mar
tin, Gardner s. Co. to build their new
warehouse, and in the meantime they
will occupy the new warehouse built
by Mr.. Carpenter, on the corner of
First and Elm Streets, and which viii
be known as the Evansville Ware
house." As soon as the busy tobacco
season is over, next Spring, they will
build on the site that was in contro-
versy the largest and most eommodi-
Gus warehouse on the Ohio River.
The plan has already been drawn, and
the building, instead of being IA OBJ
struetion to the wharf, will be an or
nament to our rapidly growing city.
At the same time of the erection of
the tobacco warehouse, two other
large warehouses will be built upon
the wharf, adjoining Martin. Gardner
& Co., the parties having been await
ing the decision in the ease above.
These new improvements will un
doubtedly infuse new life and activity
in that portion of the city.

THE STRAIGHT LINE RAILRoAD-
ANOTHER CALL on THE CITY.-From
Mr.. Willard Carpenter, who has just
returned from Connecticut, we learn
a few interesting items in regard to
the Straight Line Railroad, which we
present to our readers. The Com
pany met in Hartford, on the 18th
Of this month, and elected as officers
the following gentlemen: Francis
Fellows, President; Mr.. Day, Secre-
tary and Treasurer, and D. II. Ken
nedy, of Washington, Indiana, Chief
Engineer. Mr.. Day is said to be a
man Of great wealth.
Considerable business was brought
up for discussion. and various opin-
ions were expressed. Mr.. Carpenter
gave his views in regard to the road,
which were we'll received. A propo-
sition was received from the citizens
of Newbury. agreeing to prepare the
road bed, put down cross-ties, etc.,
from the river bank opposite Newbury,
to intersect the 1. & V. Railroad, a
distance Of about ten miles, on condi-
ton that the railroad company should
put down the iron. This proposition
was agreed TO. aud the engineer d.
rected to proceed to Newbury to
make all necessary arrangements.
Propositions were also considered
from Newburgh and Rockport. offer
ing to purchase the road. bed from
Vincennes to Patoka River. These
offers were taken under advisement
for future action.
Mr.. Carpenter says that the compa-
ny expressed its dissatisfaction with
the previous action Of Evansville in
regard to this railroad. The city had
been called on for $3.50, GOO, and in re-
turn the company had offered to COM
plete theroad. Mr. Carpenter says if the
city would give $4,000 now, it would
be refused, as it would not pay
them to build it for that sum, and
the persons owning the road had no
interest IL Evansville, and only pro-
pose to make as much money cut oil
the read bed ss possible. They think
it would pay Evansville to invest in
this road. and propose to give her one
more opportunity. Mr.. Kennedy will
be here as soon as he can get away
from Newbury, and upon his arrival
the city will probably be asked TO
subscribe $500, 600 TO the read by is:u.
ing its bonds for the same, to run
twenty five to thirty years. We shall
know more in regard to this matter
when Mr.. Kennedy arrives,
