HAS EVANSVILLE A MAYoR?-
The Courier, in its report of the last
Council meeting. speaks of 1.-THE Office
of the Mayor, now rendered vacant on
account of the Mayors illness"
Mr.. Charles DENLY, City Attorney,
says: Mayor Walker is still Mayor
of the city of Evansville"
OF course, the Counters opinion is
the most learned, but unfortunately
that of Mr.. DENLY is official.
The Courier, in speaking of the
matter, pretends to print the opinion
on this very important question, but
in reality only gives about one-ifth
of the document. totally ignoring the
most important point in the whole
question, viz: the opinion that there
is no vacancy in the Mayors Office.

A WALK IN LAMAsCo.-A young
man having business in Lamasco a
day or two since, thus describes his
experience there:
II balanced myself on the rickety
plank sidew~ik, watching carefully
lest misstep should plunge me into
the gutter, where four or five little
boys and another pig were wallowing.
My watchfulnoss was however, not
equal to the situation, for while
watching the pigs, l stumbled over a
rotten board that lay across the walk,
and in putting out my hand to regain
nay balance, 1 fell against a sort of
rude shelf erected against the side of
a grocery, and plunged my hand to
the wrist inn a rotten muskmelon,
which was one of three of the same
kind exposed for sale on the shelf
aforesaid.
"A lazy looking barefooted woman
that was squatted in the doorway,
raised up and poured out a torrent
of abuse upon me for running her
beautiful millins," and wished there
was ''perlice" near to arrest me as a
drunken loafer.
Il got out of the way as soon as pos
sible and at some distance further on
I enquired for a certain grocery where
my business called ME, but out of
four persons enquired of, no one knew
the person l desired to see, although
when | found the place. it proved to
be only about one square removed
from the uninformed people. and the
gentleman l had business with, told
me he had lived in the same place for
three years."
Probably the senses taker had been
around there recently and made a
requisition on the unsophisticated.

French TARFF-We have been in
formed that NJ. Ozenne. of the Ministry
Of Commerce. was charged to go TO Lille
and Roubaix to hear the complaints of the
manufacturers against the treaties of CON-
meree. The following report of his reply
10 the Chamber of Commerce of Lille has
been published. and as We may assume that
it expresses the views of the Govern
ment. II will be read with interest:
m. 0zsnne first observed that a re-
vision of tariffs was not possible without
the denuDeiati0n Of treaties. Now. at
the present momen,, the Government was
considering whether it could denounce.
for example. the English treaty. which
was that most complained Of at any period
OF the year. for it TO terminate at the
same date a year later. or whether the
years notice could only be given at the
date at which the treaty commenced.
Surprising the treaties were denounced,
what could be put IN their plaees Could
the general Tariff which existed before the
treaties of commerce be revived? But
that tariff contained prohibitions which
the Government would not re-establish.
Therefore the Chambers, which were now
invested with the right of drawing up the
tariffs. must have time to compose them.
Now. the numerous political questions to
be brought forward during the next ses-
sion would entirely absorb all the time of
the Legislature, which would have no time
to devote to economic subjects. Those
tariffs could, therefore. only be examined
in 1871; and thus the English treaty
could not be denounced in 1870 as there
was nothing ready to put in its place.
There next remained to be seen whether
England. to whom FnHce had promised
the treatment of the most favored nation.
did not consider that her treaty with Us
was tacitly prolonged until the ex Jiration
Of the last treaties concluded with other
Powers If she gave such an iRterpreta-
ton to the clause. the present situation
would thus be carried on to 1874 ; and.
besides. Of what utility to annoy friendly
nation with questions Of tariffs, and ex-
clude it from the privileges granted to
others2 Would not England evade the
difficulty BY sending her merchandise
through those nations with which treaties
with France still existed In this latter
eTentuaIity. France woald be committing
an unfriendly act without advantage to
the national trade For all those almost
insxtIieabIe difficulties. the Government
saw but one remedy. which was to com-
mence at once the study Of a general
tariff. which should be submitted to the
approral OF all the Powers with which
France had treaties. to expire at more
or less distant date II those Govern
ments accepted the new tariff. the treaties
wonid be abrogated ipso .focfo; if they
declined to adhere TO it, the French Gov
eminent would regret to be forced to
maintain the stdfu quo until l6T4.-Hor-

Wllliam G. Gibbons, iron ship-bGilder in

ing into the Pacific The cost vas great

strucisd them 10 Great Britain. bat they
were Of too light DRAFT to take across the
Atlantic, and the American models Of
river-boats are considered much superior
to those in use in Europe. His house
found the cost OF constructing iron vessels
in this country TO be about twenty per
cent. greater than on the Clyde. the differ
enee being altogether in the cost Of the
material Foar-tenths of the cost Of an
iron ship is in its materials. American
labor is so much superior to European.

George Stockham. largely engaged in
furnishing materials for the construction
Of wooden vessels. stated that the cost of
such materials had advanced about fifty
per cent. since 1861.
The Committee closed its investigation
to-day. having visited and taken testimO-
ny in Portland. Boston and New York. in
October. The testimony taken covers
about 500 manuscript pages, and is now
being printed in Washington.
The remedies urged for the great decay
in American shipping interest have. in
nearly every instance, resolved themselves
into three propositions +:
First-A drawback Of the dutT upon all
materials entering into the construction of
vessels. and subsidy equal to the amount
Of the duty when American materials are
used.
Second-Permission to purchase and adj
