found Ballard and two companions
drunk and disorderly. Remonstrat-
ing with them, he was assaulted and
two pistols put to his breast, one Of
which was fred, and the evidence
tends to fix the guilt upon Ballard,
his accomplices escaping. Having
had preliminary examination, be
was held to answer for murder, and
the case coming up at the recent term
ofthe Daviess County Court, a con-

ordered him taken to the Henderson

ElectIOn Farce.

The result of the New York election
can be better appreciated by under
standing the arrangements made for
it in advance by Tammany Hall. The
correspondent Of the Cincinnati Com
n1ercial furnishes us with the facts.
He says, in his dispatch of the 10th:
The frauds perpetrated by the par
tisans of Tammany Hall, in the regis
tration of voters. which took place on
Friday and Saturday, completely
eclipse all former efforts of that or
ganization. In the down town wards
alone, the number of repeaters who
perjured themselves and registered
their names is estimated at eight
thousand.
The Fifth Ward, which has here
tofore only cast vote of three thou
sand five hundred, contains on the
registry the names of six thousand
Eve hundred voters, three thousand of
which are repeaters.
The First, Second and Third Wards
are proportionately swarmed with
fraudulent -oters.
The police have acted In league
with the corrupt inspectors of regis
try, and in most of the districts re.
spectacle citizens have not been per-
mitted to remain in the room where
the registry was being conducted, for
the purpose of challenging illegal
voters. The depraved and desperate
character of these repeaters, who con-
sist, in the main, of river thieves,
bruisers. and ex- convicts, may be i'm
agined when it is stated that on Sat-
urday an honest inspector, not believ-
ing their naked statements, having
proceeded to swear them, they cody
asked him if he wanted them to eat
the Bible up, and if so, they would
be happy to obey him.
These scoundrels have been prom
Used impunity from punishment by
the leaders of Tammany, and from
present indications all respectable
citizens will refrain from voting.
Arrangements have been made by
which the canvassers of election, APP
pointed by the Police Commissioners,
will count q vote of one hundred
thousand tomorrow, thereby securing
the Democratic majority sufficient to
carry the new Court of Appeals. All
opposition to Tammany from outside
Democratic organizations has been
withdrawn, and no disturbance will
likely occur.
A riot was threatened in the First
Assembly District, but the Democrat
ic candidates against the ring we're
prevailed upon to retire from the con-
test.
In consequence with the excep-
ton of politicians, and the army Of
repeaters, no one takes the smallest
interest in the result of the election.
Has any Democratic paper in Indi-
ana ever been known to denounce
these shameful frauds2 We have yet
to hear of the first one,

A CORRESPONDENT, writing from
Union City to the West Tennessee Re
publican, says:
Miss Godsey, the sleeping beauty,
and the great wonder of the present
age, is now in our town, and the room
in which she is staying has been
crowded all day with persons desiring
to express their sympathy for her
poor mother by making some small
contributions. Some of the curiosi-
ties attending her Affections is that
she is not sensible of any pain only a
few minutes in every 168 hours, and
only breathes 81 minutes and AZ sec

of the time she is dead, or asleep as
it is termed. Her time of waking is

to say a word about the administra :
ton in Frankfort. Though we called
its attention to certain remarkable
condolences between appointments
made by the Governor and valuable
services rendered by the appointees to
the Governor, matter which could
have taken the form of jokes in
hundred paragraphs, it said not q
word. Though its own honest and
candid auditor, Colonel ID. Howard
Smith, has time and again exposed in
his official reports the utter imbecility
that has marked the management of
our State affairs, it hasn't had a word
to say about them, unless its joke
about men who write their middle
name in full was intended for him;
and the other Democratic papers of
the State have been equally reticent.
Their latest exhibition of incompe-
tency is in the building Of the new

have been definitely located at Spen-
Ger, Judge franklin and others having
donated five acres of ground for that
purpose. The people of Vincennes
made $4,000 subscription to the
road with the expectation of securing
the shops. But they acted churlish-
ly towards the road in granting it the
right of way through some of the
streets Of the town, and in this way,
to 4 great extent, aeUtralized the
good effects Of their liberality. The
location of the shops at Spencer in
dicates pretty clearly. we think, that
the Pennsylvania Central Railroad,
which owns the I. & ", does not in
tend extending that road to Cairo
very soon. fit was the intention of
that Corporation to complete the road
to Cairo at an early day, it would OF
necessity, almost, locate the shops for
both divisions at Vincennes. Our
neighbors up the road have our warm
est sympathy for their multiplied
railroad Affections. They have, how
ever. one comfort left them; Vim

liably Democratic.

In the JOURNAL Of yesterday we
copied an article from the Cincinna-
ii Gazette, showing the condition of
tSe vote or the Lay Delegation in the
M. E. Church. It was there stated
that the friends of that measure only
lacked five Conference votes to secure
the required three fourths vote nee
essary to carry the measure. We now
learn that the question has already
been settled in the affirmative. Sew
enty-two Conferences have given an
aggregate vote of ,489. The Germa-
many and Switzerland Conference. yet
to meet, will cast about 45 votes,
making in all 1854. Three-fourths
of this is 4 ,9001, which is the affirm
alive vote required, and already in the
United States the affirmative vote
amounts to 1908, or % votes more
than is necessary. So it will be seen
that the final result will not be affec-
ted by the vote of the Germany and
Switzerland Conference. though Its
vote will doubtless increase the ma
iority in favor Of the measure.

ing Of German Republicans, and the
quarrels among the rival Democratic
factions, it is very difficult to take
satisfactory horoscope of the future.
It seems that there is to be new Re-
publican daily, called the Sun, TO be
started on Monday next, with Mr..
HoratiO Newcomb. the old editor of
the Journal, as managing" editor.
Managing editors are becoming
commonl This new applicant for ia
vor will claim to be independent of
rings and cliques. To make political
matters still more interesting, stock
is being rapidly taken in a new Dem
ocratic daily to appear in June. This
paper will, it is stated, repudiate
Bourbonism and take advanced
ground. by throwing aside old issues
and stepping upon Mr.. Hendricks
platform of the acceptance of the Eff
teenth Amendment as an irremedia-
BILE fact, and fighting upon what will
be claimed to be open issues. We
regard this latter movement as signif-
cant of new departure" on the part
of the Evansville Courier. Once Mr..
Hendricks platform is definitely and
authoritatively announced, the Coatr-
Ter, under its present editorial man
agement, Will not hesitate to step up
on it, and denounce every Democrat
who may refuse to follow its example.
IF our friends at the capital propose
to make the fight quadrangular, we
suppose it is in their power to do So
but, really, we don't see that any ad.
vantage will accrue to anybody by thf
result.
A CORRESPONDENT Of the Missouri
Republican, makes a suggestion with
regard to the running of railroad
trains that ought to be adopted. He
says:
No train should be permitted Il
leave a station bfore il is appraised hy
| telegraph from the next station Il
which it is bound, that the track is
and will remain for it, clear of train
running in an opposite direction
This is easily carried out, and wheI
observed absolutely prevents collision
between up and down trains.
Three-fourths of the most fatal &C
cidents occur from collisions. Whel
trains run off the track ordinarily th
loss of life is small, when compare
with that resulting from collisions
The adoption of the suggestion of tn
correspondent, would absolutely an
forever prevent any accident from col
lision. Railroads might be put to ex
ira expense in telegraph Offices, bu
the saving in the destruction of train
would soon make it up.

A NOTE from the committee having

as that the citizens of Newtonville,
Spencer County, design decorating

revere the gallant dead to participate

and lay upon the graves mementoes
of affection and pride.

will be organized to visit the GENE

the graves with their tribute of how-

only objection to this arrangement is,
that many graves will be neglected
altogether, because the friends and
relatives of their sleeping occupants

who died from home, and far from
relatives and friends.
