continued to make objections on this point
ever since came into Office. / believe the
city government can be run for little over
$l00,000 year in salaries.
The yeas and nays were sailed on the
final passage of the budget ordinance as
amended:
Yeas-Bonzano, Walton, Lewis, Remick,
Delassize, Shaw.
Eay-Cockrem-I.
hr. Remick explained that he had &C
oepted the reductions made in the Depart
ment of Commerce in the budget just
adopted, with the understanding that it
was absolutely essential that reductions
should be made in order 30 enable the city
government to get along. He looked upon
the adoption of the budget as a mere formal
proceeding The Council had done its duty
in passing the budget, and the next Council
would be necessitated to go to the Legisla-
ture for help out Of its difficulty. He be-
Ieved the officers he had employed had
done service for the city, but as he had &C.
cepted the striking off of the market inspeo-
tors on the understanding that the police
would IN future discharge their duties, he
wished his explanation to go upon the re-
cord, SO thatit might rot be supposed that
he simply economical at the expense OF his
successor; but that it might be understood
that h8 had been compelled TO accept the
situation.
Mr.. Lewis said he had voted yes on the
budget. because he believed it to be mat
ter which the incoming Council could
remedy. He believed that the incoming
Council could make reductions. He had
dates and had their replies, and he supposed
these gentlemen would make all necessary
reductions. AS a reason for voting as he
had done on the ordinance he would lay
before the Council two letters he had
received from a very popular candidate:

questing, in consideration of my popular
eandidature for the Department of In

tended to me, but having no data on which
to base my calculations, can not recon-
mend, Understandings, any changes in said
estimate. Unless compelled by law to make
out now this "budget" of expenses, would it
not be advisable, under current circum-
stances, for the outgoing Council to leave
that estimate to be made out by their sue
cessorsf Should it be necessary, however,
to make it out at once, would it not be
proper te assume as the proper estimate of
the various departments the average ex-
penses of the last two or three years Any
other course would, I think, be unjust to-
ward the new board of administration.

As general thing, man can get drunk
and behave otherwise immorally, and
yet retain the respect and confidence Of
his fellowmen, provided he will reform.
But if a minister of the gospel be guilty
Of single oaense Of the kind, there Is
no hope for him. In this respect, people
look upon him as they do upon a woman
who is similarly guilty-as absolutely
destroyed, and for him or her there is no
possible way of escape. We copy from
an exchange brief account of the "rise
and fall" of a gifted Presbyterian clergy
man who belongs to the Northern Assem-
bly, branch of that church. We are not
of that class who think that such con
duct as the Rev. Mr.. G. II. Robertson,
was guilty of, will strike any serious
blow to the church or the cause al relig-
ion. Why should it do so any more
than dishonest bank officer would strike
a blow against all such Offices g--or any
more than a dishonest Mason or Odd
Fellow would strike serious blow at
those Ordersl There are black sheer il
every flock. There are roguish hallosl.si
in every herd. There are wrayes IN
s,nsp,~ vietbine ever: alere, aud in
every station and degree Of life. We
lament such conduct, but do not censuro
the church or the cause Of Christ,

No matter what the result Of the Pres
idential election may be (albeit, we think
we can discern that with tolerablo clear
ness) the result Of theautumn State cleo
tons will close up the careers of three
very Objectionable United States Sena-
tors. The most offensive man in the
Senate is Roscoe Conkling, and New
York, being Liberal by hundred thou
sand majority, willsend him into merited
retirement. The defeat Of Hartraneft
in Pennsylvania, which is now conceded,
does the business for Simon Cameron.
Do what he will, say all that he can,
Mr. Mortons Senatorial days are num-
bered. Indiana will settle the account
with him in October, aud give him leis-
ure during the rest Of his life, 70 pay the
heavy score charged against him. CoUr-

az pose Of forming a Greeley Club,
you'd not be responded to by enough to

upon the factthatour Fair had just closed
and the people were wearicd by a two
days attendance thercut. Our fears we're
soon dispelled however, for upon the
ringing Of the bell about seventy.fve citi-
zens Of our town and county came in,
and after a speech by 7. p Hill, in
which he gave a brief account of the
condition Of public affairs, and stated
the object Of the foundation Of such
Clubs, (namely, to break Grants bead

men and young men, Ike those who
signed our immortal Declaration of In

their names upon the book, and We feel
sure that no one of the signerssof that
ancient document, had the good and glo-
ny Of our beloved country more at heart
than those who signed the Greeley Club
roll at the courthouse in Stanford on last
Saturday evening. Our object is to
disseminate information of a political
kind-such as books, papers, pamphlets,
speeches. and &c, so that all the people,
rich and poor, black as well as white,
may learn the true condition Of public
affairs. We intend to invite able and
gifted men from various parts of the
State to address the Club from time to
lime during the canvass. The Club
adjourned to meet again tomorrow even

Joined the Club last Saturday, be on hand
promptly at the ringing Of the bell, and
let each one bring at least one more man
with him. We must have 200 members

AUGUST ELECTION.

doubt whether half Of the voters in the

present incumbant, has bcea candidate
for reelection since I've early part of last
winter No one can doubt that he is
faithful Democrat and a good officer. It
has been the universal custom to give
the Sheriff a second term when request
ed but how il viii be this time we can
not say. Mr.. j. +. Edmiston, of Crab
Orchard, IS his opponent. Our fears are
thaton the day Of elcctiona straight Radi-
cal will come on the track and jeopsrdise
the success of ourparty. 1t has been said
that Mr.. Edmiston is not a straight
Democrat. OF course we do not know
whether this is true or not, but We do
know that he claims to be one. How he
has heretofore voiea VIC know not, but
this does net matter, proyiaets - is with
us now.
For Appellate Judge we have Hon.
w. &. Pryor, the regular Democratic
nominee and an able jurist, at present
on the Appellate%ench by the appoint !
ment Of Gov. Leslie, to FIJI the unex-
PRED term Of Judge Robertson, resign
ed. His opponent Is Hon. J. W. Men
zies, an independent Democrat. Judge
Pryor should Of course be elected over
any bolter.
Ca Monday also our Democratic
friends will be called upon to decide
which Of the three apiranis for the Dem
ocratic nomination for Congress in this
district they prefer, namely-Talbott,
Hoskins and Durham, Col Breckinridge
having withdrawn from the race. This
Of course is but the long-talked Of pri-
mary election, and we hope that who
ever Is choaen us our standard-bearer will {
receive the undivided support Of the ,
cther candidates and an true Democrats {
