Three nell CD guard st the time made no re-
distance, but helped 10 get the vessel under
way under cOmpuisi0n. They now aliege that
outside Oi the harbor they got into a boat and
came back. The vessel then went to Port
Hood for supplies, and in going through the gut
OF course met the Plover and was retaken. The
charges against the parties in the Police Court
were assault, riot and the rescue of the vessel
The charge OF Tiet had to be withdrawn and
tie evidence Of assault and rescue was very
weak. The case which they tried to make
against the men for stealing the cargo signaIly
failed. l.. Palmer, Queens counsel and VIM

strangers.
All the parties were committed until the JAN

charged on bail, which was AT given by the
owner in s. 900 for himself and $40 for each of
the men. The feeling OF the crowd of officers
was in favor Of the accused. Though not APP

would get OF. MIR. Friend speaks in very com

The bridge Que-IiOn----EIecf
Next Thursday.

1t was agreed by the meeting repre-
senting both sides, Saturday night, that
an election be held ON Thursday next, for
an expression OF public sentiment in ref
erence to the purchase of the bridge by
the corporate authorities. All the facts
have been laid before the public showing
the Importance of this measure and the
reasonable conditions on which it can be
carried out. Messrs. Green d Tapley
propose to take for the bridge what it cost
them, at the lowest rates on which they
could contract for its construction. 1t
would he unjust to ask them to take less;
or to consider whether it is profitable in
vestment to them. If it is not profitable
so much stronger proof of the necessity of
making it free bridge. 1t should be
borne in mind, that the real question is
whether the enormous bridge tax collect
ed from the citizens, shall be applied to
the purchase of this property, or whether
it shall 60 to the benefit of other por-
tons of the county in which the citizens
OF jackson are not remotely Interested
1t matters not what the bridge tax amount
to, whether it be large or a small sum;
whether it takes one or ten years to real
lie the amount of the purchase money.
The tax will be applied to the payment of
the debt until it Is settled. By appropri-
ating 1t to the purchase of the bridge, the
city will secure valable property as clear
gam, without additional outlay.
Objection has been made to the appli-
cation of the city bridge tax for the pur-
chase of the bridge, on the ground of the
expense of keeping it and the turnpike in
repair. This expense will be trifing.-
The whole thing can be accomplished by
the labor of man with a cart and horse
six months in the year.

which bestowed it. If the Professors dare

apologists and defenders of it, how will
these facts impress the young men and boys

STATE UNIVERSITY.
EXTRACTS IRON THE PRESS
From the Fayettc Chronicle.


The State University has been turned
over TO the dominant party, To be used
for political purposes. We thought this
institution of learning would be let alone,
but it seems that nothing is too good or
sacred TO escape their polluting touch.
The former Trustees have been in part
deposed and new men put in their places
Men identified with the state and with
it, material interests, have been turned
out, and scalawags take their places. -
New offices have been created with eX-
horbitant salaries, and other expenses un-
known heretofore are to be made.
The next thing will he to send some
greasy colored chap to take seat in the
school and then the ruin of the noble old
institution of which the State has Justly
been so proud, will be complete.
Under this State OF affairs it bchooves
our people to cast about them to discover
some place within the borders Of our State,
where their sons can be educated without
being thrown in contact with an inferior
race.
