THE Courier Of yesterday has a
false and indecent attack upon Will
liam Heilman. suggested by the pro-
ceedings Of the City Council on Mon
day night. We agree with the Courier
that The proceedings Of the Council
were Of a disgraceful character. but
the disgrace attaches to Messrs. Kertb,
Muhlhausen, and the other Demo-
cratic members of the Council, who
opposed the reasonable and legal re-
quest of Mr.. Heilman for the az
pointment of Republicans on the
Election Boards.
Councilmen Muhlhausen and
Kerth, denied Mr. Heilman's right to
ask that the Republican party be rep
resented on the election board al the
special election for Mayor, and the
whole disturbance grew ous of this
notion (Which ought to have baen
passed without a dissenting voice,
and Mr.. Heilman's assertion that a
similar request made to the last Re-
publican Council by the Democrats
had been granted. The Courier edi-
tor when he wrote his abusive and
slanderous attack of yesterday, knew
that Mr.. Heilman was right, for Mr..
Whittlesey himself was the very man
who had made the request referred
to. By reference to the files Of the
Courier of March 15sh, 1870, we find
the following in the report of the
Council proceedings:
Mr.. w hittlesey, representing a large
number of the citizens of evansville, pre-
sented petition asking that the Demo.
cratic party be represented in the Election
Board by such men should be agreeable
to the Democratic party in the various
"On motion of Mr. wiltshire 1t was or
dered that the request of the petitioners
be granted, and the request OF the petit
tioners was nIed."
There was no "disgraceful scene"
in the Republican Council, when the
editor of the Courier appeared and
asked for just what Mr.. Heilman' s
motion contemplated; and because
Mr.. Heilman insisted uron the just
ness of his motion, the Democratic
Councilmen create "a disagreeable
scene," and Mr.. Heilman is soundly
abused by the Courier. 1t has been
most unmistakably proven, recently,
that its abuse does not injure Mr..
Heilman with the People of this
County. Itwas engaged in this work for
month before the October election,
and it resulted in electing him by sc0en
hundred majority, the largest vote
ever given to any man for the Legis-
laturs, in Vanderburgh County,
The conduct Of the Democratic
Councilmen and the Courier only
proves that they are unwilling to do
common justice to their political op-
ponents, and that tho Republicans
will not be granted fair and impair.

Washington Items.

WASHINGTON. October 25.-There
is no truth In the report that Post
master General, Cresswell has solic-
tied the appointment Of Minister to
England
It may be stated with confidence
that the reasons for General Cox's re-
tirement has involved 60 difference
whatever In public affairs, and, con-
trary to reports, there was entire har-
moDy In the policy of conducting the
affairs through the agency of civilians,
selected for their personal qualifca-
tions, as we'll as for their well known
benevolent characters.
The only thing that could be con-
strued as involving the disagreement
between Cox and the President was
the MeGaraban claims. A year ago
the President expressed to Cox his
desire that no patent be signed in his
name, either for McGarahan or the
New Idria Company, until Congress
had finally acted upon the subject, as
much corruption had been charged on
both sides. and as the question is un-
dergoing a Legislative enquiry even
before the Presidents administratio On
came into existence, and on the 22d
/ Ol august 1dSt the IIGo1u61G sWTOLG
Cox a ncte in which he communicated
similar views and in hi6iied the sign
ing of such patents by the Secretary
appointed to sign land patents for the
President, unless by his own specific
order or through the Secretary
himself.
The Secretary, on reception of the
Presidents rote, promptly gave tho
reQlirel instruction TO the Land
Patent Secretary.
/ General Cox explained to the Pres
ident THAI McGaIahan's case was not
before the department. It was the
new Idria Companies claim to the
same quicksilver mines, the posses
sion OF which is contested. But this
/ matter was not the cause Of Secretary
| Cox's resignation. The reason giveI
for tho withholding of the CORE
spondence between Secretary Cox and
the President, the resignation and Its
acceptance, is that it was, at the time
it took place, considered to be private
by both parties. and it involves ne
difference on public measures as &
cause of official separation.
1t has been ascertained from of
fetal sources that no person is yet de.
eided on for Commissioner of Interna
Revenue. nor is it likely an appoint
ment will be made for several weeks
