MUNICIPAL CoURT.-Elevcn cases were tried
by Judge Williams yesterday: VIM. IL. Court
ney, for larceny, was sent to the house of correc
ton for six months; Mary McClusky, for keep
ing liquor, was fined $40 and costs; John Nc
Grath and Frank Seymour, for single sales, were
fined $40 and costs each; Sarah Fales, for sec
ond offence of drunkenness, was fined SO and
costs; James 0'Connor, Robert NJ. Brown, John
L. Brown, and James Hennesscy, were each
fined So and costs for drunkenness; Timothy
Costello, before the court on complaint of keep
ing open shop Sunday, and Hubbard p Ross,
of Cambrdgeport, for making disturbance at
the theatre, were discharged. Sarah Faes fail
ed TO pay her fine, and so did the two Browns;
hence an addition of three inmates to the county
Jail.
WARD FoUR.-The republican caucus in
Ward Four, last evening, was captured by men
who do not belong to the republican party.
They controlled the caucus and elected the three
delegates, the first on the list being q man who
left the republican party last year, and joined
the state organization of another party. A dele
cation so chosen can not properly be recognized

The republicans of that ward should not submit
to this proceeding. 1t is a case for the city com
mittee; and, if the report of the case as made to
us, proves to be correct, another caucus should
be called, from which outsiders should be
rigidly excluded. An eye witness reports to us
a list OF outsiders whom he saw acting in the
caucus; and it is well known that the gentle
man who heads the delegation left the republic
can party last year, and joined another political
party. Delegates to the state convention should
be republicans, and not members of the other
parties and they should be chosen by republic
cans, and not by outsiders. Would the demo-
Gratis submit to have republicans capture their
caucuscs and elect their delegates? Would the
prohibitory party submit to such an operation
by men of the other parties? Would the labor
reformers submit to it? Certainly not. No
more should the republicans submit to it in this
case

SECOND DAY.
There were clouds at the Sturbridgc cattle
show yesterday; but clouds don't Brighten poo
pie down in that region, and they all came At
noon things had a lively look on the grounds,
and popcorn cakes were going through the
munching process in as many pairs of Jaws as
ever ground gingerbread at an old-lashioned
muster; balloon ascensions, too, were remarka-
bly, numerous as many a boy can testify who
tearfully gazed skyward and watched his twenty
cents worth of crimson vanity float up and
away-the result of heartless caprice on the part
of some other boy who surrcptitiously cut the
string which held the cherished bubble down.
The exhibition of horses was the main feature
of the day. but the hall deserves few words of
comment before trottng out the colts. The
ladies gave the inside exhibition about all the
attention it received, unless it was the side on
which the fruit and vegetables were spread out,
and where the old men were seen in groups
talking about pears and 'pumkius" with pa
thence which no young farmer possesses. The
show of apples was small, as it probably will be
at all the fairs; pears and grapes made up the
fruit display to "a great extent. The garden vege-
tables looked well, with the exception of the
beets and Lima beans-they were like New
York city: too large for the comprehension and
confidence of common people.
The flowers looked beautiful mo one was ever
known to speak differently of them), and were
contributed in quantity sufficient to fill one
table extending the length of the hall. The
regular bed quilt was hung on the wall, fianked

In ward three the attendance was not very

The Butler men had control of ward four. ow-
ing to a rally of labor reformers and prohibit
tionists who supported the Wendell Phillips
ticket last year in opposition to VIM Claflin.
The meeting was organized by the choice of II.
d. Barber chairman, aud Stedman Clark Sec
rotary. The Butler ticket for delegates, bearing
the names of John S. Clark, Charles II. Carpen-
ter, and John Streeter, was declared elected, it
receiving 40 votes against 20 for another
ticket on which were the names of DR., f. II. KEEL
ley, H. H. Houghton, and W. F. Pond. George
Kendrick, II. II. Houghton, and Dr. j. G. Park,
were chosen ward committee.

The Republican Caueuses.
AmIi-BntIcr Delegates Chosen.

The republican caususes held last evening
were more fully attended than is usually the
case when delegates to the state convention are
to be elected and a very lively interest was man
iiested at most of the meetings. The friends of
Gen. Butler have been very actively at work,
and were out in all the force they could muster,
but they were doomed to disappointment The
disposition OF the republicans of Worcester is
hostile to the claims of Gen. Butler and dele
CATION composed of men who will vote for any
one OF fifty candidates that can be named before
they will for Butler was chosen. The only ex-
cCption is in ward four, where the men who
voted for Wendell Phillips last year in opposi-
ton to William Claflin controlled the caucus,
and elected three delegates favorable to Butler.
The preference of the republican delegates
chosen is understood TO be for Jewell and Wash
burn. The action of the several caucuses was
as follows:

One OF the very best OF the illustrated
weeklies is "Hearth and Home" pub
lished by Orange Judd IL Co., New
York. 1t is filed 10 the brim every
week with firstrate matter for all
classes of readers, and its influence in
the home circle is healthful, pure and
good. We have observed it with more
than usual care during the past
year, and feel that we cannot
commend it too warmly. Its corps
of editors and contributors en-
braces much OF the best literary
talent in the country, its illustrations
are in the best style of wood engraving,
and it is entirely free from anything
that could offend good taste or a sound
morality. We are but doinga duty for
which we know we will receive the
thanks Of those heads of families who
follow our advice, when we counsel
them to send three dollars to Orange
Judd & Co., 24j Broadway, New York,
and get Hearth and Home for next year.
Try it for 1872. Hearth and Home and
the american AgicultuiSt will be sent
to one address for 81 %.

The anxiety Of the Administration
Senators TO prevent investigation Of the
gross frauds that have been perpetrated
particularly in the New York Custom
House, is beginning to be explained and
understood. One Of the particular
friends OF Ton MURPHY and the Presi
dent had a very soft thing in the
carriage and storage line. Having
recently quarrelled with his DELlLAH
the irate charmer has, after the manner
of Miss JOSEPHINE MANSFIELD, placed
in the hands of his enemies a mass o.
documentary evidence concerning Gus
tom House transactions. 1t is said to
be proved by these documents that one
half Of the illegal profits Of the carriage
and storage frauds was regularly sci
aside and paid over to General HORACE
PORTER, who holds some position on
General GRANTS household staff. 1t is
not believed that the Senate committee
will want to send for these persons and

IT having been found cheaper to
bring the Indians one by one to Wash
ington to be overawed by the majesty
and power of the government, than to
maintain the Indian agents and the
army in the Western.plains, CocnIsE,
the Apache chief is to be brought in on
free passes and the expenses of his
decentralization betrayed out of the pub
lie treasury. If all the Indians could
be brought East and boarded at a first
class hotel during the remainder of their
natural lives, the government would
probably save money by the operation.
An Indian agency conducted upon the
common and most approved plan is a
good deal better thing for the agent
than to be sole owner OF a hundred
barrel oil well.

TAKING a DRINK CONFIDESTIALLl.--
A traveller in Nevada tells Il story OF Il
family which consisted of the husband,
his wife and two grown sons. The old
Lady was the only of the family who did
not take little OF the go, he joyful.
Sitting by the fire Il few minutes. the otl
man tipped Il wink, and the visitor fol-
lowed him out. Stopping 10y shed, lit.
pulled out /: long necked bottle, remark
ing: Il have to keep this hid, for the
boys might get to drinking, and the old
woman would raise the ,i.vil.' They
took drink and returned to the tiresidt'.
Soon Tom, the eldest son, asked the Wis
itor to see the horses, and taking him be-
hind the barn pulled out a flask, saying.
II hnvcto keep this hid, for the old man
will get drunk, and then the devil is to
pay" and they both took drink and
returned. Soon Bob stepped on the Wis
itor's toe and walked off, the visitor fol-
lowing. As they reached the pig pen,
Bob drew ont il good sized bottle, re-
marking; "Iou know the old man and
Tom will get drunk, and have to hide
thiS.'
Our friend concluded he could not
stand it to drink corttlcntially against
the whole family, and started back to
Gold Hill.
