YANDERPOOL.

A report has been in circulation in
this city to the effect that Vanderpool,
previous to bis trial at Kalamazoo con-
fessed to the killing of Field, and that
the confession was made to Mr. N. A
Balch, distinguished criminal lawyer Of
that place. The report originated from
certain statements that Mr.. Balch did
make concerning conversation he had
with Vauderpool, wherein Vanderpcol
made suggestions case to the effect
following: If, after himself and Field
returned to the bank to complete their
dissolution of partnership and make
division of assets, all alteration and
scufie ensued, which Field got the best
Of and in passion thereat he had seized
favorable o. opportunity and killed Field
with blow on the head, he asked Mr..
Batch what would be the probable yer
diet under such circumstances He also
asked Mr.. Balch's opinion as to whether
his (Vanderpool's) former defense and
statement would be apt to prejudice
unfavorably his case, if he should then
put it upon the grounds above stated
The conversation can in no way be
consid cred as a confession, the whole
being stated as a supposed case by Van
derpool. At the same time he stated
to Mr.. B.. that d" Field was much strong

always supposed he could handle him
easily, but found out that he could not"
We have taken pains to learn the facts
in relation to the reported confession"

weeks previous 10 the assembling of the
convention Ben. Butler was working
things up to fever heat in his own

secure the nomination for governor,
aud it was evident that nothing but
active work on the part of his oppo-
nents could prevent him from.s securing
the prize. On the opening of the con-
vention the most bitter feeling pre-
vailed. 1t was clear that Butler could
only be beaten by all the other candi.

New York Republican Convention.

Last week the Republicans Of New
York held their State Convention for
the nomination of State officers, at SYRIA
cuse The Republicans Of tic Enpine
State having been sadly divided for some
time past, considerable interest was
manifested over the meeting of the con.
vention. As was expected. owing to
the divisions, two sets of delegates from
New York city presented themselves
for admission into tho convention. Each
of the two great factions Of the party is
led by one OF the e. s. Senator's, so that
the Republicans are split into Fenton
ties and Conklingites. The latter have
had control Of the Offices at the disposal
Of the General Government, and have
q strong representative in Murphy,
Collector of. the port; Of New York,
while the Fentonites are aided and
abstted by Horace Greeley and bis pa
per; the Tribune. The excitement at
the opening of the convention is said
to have been intense. and some Of the
scenes disgraceful in the extreme, The
Fentonites were charged with being un-
der the control of Tammany, and
their admission was bitterly opposed,
until finally they seeded from the con-
vention, notwithstanding proposition
was carried to the effect that the New
York city seats in the convention should
be divided between the Fenton-Greeley
and the Gonkling Murphy delegates.
In this condition of affairs the con-
vention went to work and nominated
candidates which should be worthy the
support Of the entire Republican party
Of New York. The following is the
ticket placed in nomination:
Secretary of State, G. Hilton; Comp
troller, Z. K. Hopkins; Treasurer,
Raines; Attorney General, Francis c.
Barlow; Surveyor, Henry Smith En-
gineer, E. H. Roberts; Canal Commits
sioner, William Barley State Prison
Ihspector5 Thomas kirkpatrick.
In view Of all circumstances, this is
spoken of as the best ticket that could
possibly have been nominated, and it
will undoubtedly receive the warm sup
port of the entire Republican party of
the States The Tribune goes-in heart
lily for the ticket which is hopeful IN
dication thas' all factions of the Repub-
llcans are satisfied with the result, and
that Republican victory in New York
Is not improbable this fails

So the old coat has a sure thing of it.

A WEDDING.

The Gazette of this morning says: es-
tsrday afternoon was celebrated, for the frat
time, We believe, in the city of Davenport,
q marriage after the manner of the Law of
Israel" The parties to the interesting GER
emory were MIR. Isaac Rothschild, of the
firm Of Rothschild Il Brother, of Davenport,
and Miss Rosa Auerbach, of Fort Wayne,
Ind, niece OF the great author, Berthold
Auerbsch. The ceremony took place at the
residence Of Mr.. Rothschild, near the corner
of Sixth and Gaines. The guests we're
numerous and the capacity of the spacious
Mansion was fully tested. Before the COM
mencement of the ceremony the table on
which were displayed the presents, attracted
universal attention. These were very rica,
and elegant, and were symbols of good
wishes from widely separated portions of the
world. Among them were tokens from Ger
many. At one o clock the announcement
| was made that the ceremony was about TO
take place. The bridal procession then
entered the room IN which the company
were Assem- bled, and the parents of the bride
and groom conducted them to the altar
| when the marriage ceremony was performed
with all the observance OF the Jewish
| Church. The bride was elegantly st,ired il
white, and covered with a bridal veil.

HORSE RAILWAY ACROSS THE FHW
BRIDGE

Capt. j. T. Robinson, representing the
ferry interest, and the Moline and Rock
Island Horse Railway Company and Mr.. Ed.
Russell, Of the Gazette, representing the
Davenport Horse Railway Company, are in
Washington, endeavoring to secure horse
railway across the bridge at this point. Our
informant, who has just returned from the
capital, had an interview with them last
week, in which he learned that they pro-
badly would not accomplish their object
with the present congress. However, they
have hopes Of ultimate success. The pro-
ject is a very plausible one, and should
those gentlemen succeed in their attempts,
which we hope they will, will prove very
valuable accession to the many other .dvan
tages of our city.

We received a call this morning from Mr.
W. c. Leach, of Aledo, this s'a'e' ~no
stopping at the Farmers Hotel this o''S' 10.
. ws.l He ia here with the intention OF
..o-,..,;no 60, the establishment of lock
s. . .h;. ,,.ce. Attracted here by the
large list of manufactures published in the
Urrr,v ARGUS of the 7th of January, and
LEARNING OF the facilities of this point for
.nch factory, and the well known liberality
of our citizens to such an enterprise. indue>
ed him to give this city the preference. He
is sole patentee of a patent guard for the
keyhole of any common door lock, the
operation of which appears to us very salts.
and the guard can be attached to
any lock for Is cents, rendering the lock
burglar proof.
The patent is very good thing, but the
establishment of the factory is his object
he thinks engagements can be made with
the foundries here to do all necessary cast
ing, and he brings with him q knowledge o
lock making, gained by 20 years labor il
the lock factories of the East, that will be
of great value if such factory be started
here. The eastern firms cannot make g
lock as cheap as it can be made here, freight
other expense will be saved, and the facil
tiles of this point are undoubtedly as good
if not superior to the east. Then why car
we not have lock factory here p?
Mr.. Leach will lay the subject before the
Board of Trade a. the meeting tomorrow
evening, and We hope to see them lend him
helping hand 10 the establishment of this
enterprise. Parties wishing to see Mr.. L.,
or to examine his patent, can do SO BY call
ing at his hotel. Communications addressed
care of this office will reach him.

they again made acquaintance with bolts

from such pests, and if neighboring cities
