The RevengefuI Administration.

The arrogance of the Administra-
ton men is already beginning to crop
out atresh, now that they feel sure OF
another lease of four years Of power.
Their success in Pennsylvania and
Ohio, though clearly accomplished by
fraud, is making the friends of the
Grant party more vindictive than ever
toward their opponents. Among the
pronounced purposes Of the GRANTEES
is the removal Of several members of
the House from important commit
tees, in the manner in which Senator
Sumner was removed from the Clair
manship of the Foreign Relations
Committee Of the Senate, nearly two
years ago. They cite as precedent
for this The action of Mr. Benton, who
removed from the head Of com
mittee in the House a personal friend,
who happened to be in opposition to
the Administration. Gen. Banks is
to be removed from the Craftsmanship
of the Foreign Affairs Committee
Gov. Blair, of Michigan, from the
head of the Committee on Claims, and
Gen. Farnsworth from the Committee
on Post Offices and Post Roads, be-
cause they are not III accord with the
Grant Administration. Yet these
things are threatened to be done by
a party which claims, in this canvass
that it "procnbes" no person or per-
sons, on the account of his or their
political or other opinions, The pre-
tence is utterly false.

COquelting.

The managers Of the Cincinnati Southern
railroad seemed to be acting rather coquet-
tishly, They have visited all the towns
throughout Central Kentucky where it is pos
sible for their road To be located, and never
did a sutton spark his lady love with more
winning smiles or pleasant ilattery than these
gentlemen have bestowed upon Lexington,
Richmond, Lancaster, Danyille, Somerset,
Stanford, etc, etc. They seem to be all things
To all localities--to "blow hot and cold with
the same breath" We agree with the Obser-
uer and Reporter, that such conduct is very UNI
becoming of the dignity Of great monied
corporation Better far that they should hat
ter no locality, but go on making surveys over
the different lines and then say to the people,
what are you willing TO do to have this road
built through ON your line? Then, after all
the bids" are in, choose the one which is the
better suited TO your purposes. DO not pit"
one county or section against another, as il
you were engaged in cock fight, but let all
know that you intend to accept the best bid,
all things considered, and then the people
everywhere will know what to expect Thus
acting, no spirit of undignfed rivalry will be
engendered, and you will, in the end, succeed
in your endeavors far better than you will if
this coquettry is continued.
II this is not good advice, don't take il.

Central Kentucky Fair.

We had intended 20 give space in our out
side page this week 10 the proceedings Of thi.
Fair, but We did not receive the Last days pro-
ceedings in time, and devote that space to the
speeches, etc, which were delivered in Louis

vention, believing that they are Of more gen.
eral interest To our readers than anything else.
We rejoice to he able to state that the Fair
was financial success this year. On the
closing day an immense crowd was in attend

usual, at fairs, some decisions wer, rendered

Read and John Bell, in this county, October
! lith, 1851, was called on Wednesday last at
half past ten o'clock, aud the prisoner brought
in. lie looked very pale and haggard, and
manifested great excitement Several hour-
were consumed in procuring a jury; thirty
eight persons being examined before .he requi-
site number was obtained. The following were
selected and duly sworn: George Campbell,
VIM. Burton, John J. Huffman, C. Trailor,
John g. Sargent, Jas. McAlister, w. G.. Car
penter, David Peoples, Oscar Owslcy, David
Swope, 7. G. Davis, and Jency Wright. Col
7. 7. HILL T. W. Nanon, H. T. Harris and
r. Blain, appeared for the accused, and NH.
owsley for the Commonwealth, assisted BY T.
7. Bobhit and w. g. Welch. The attorney
Tor the accuscdargued before his Honor, claim
Jog that the prisoner was entitled to the bene-
Ut Of the Act passed by the Legislature Of
Kentucky, 1867, entitled an AaLta-..uist a.!
disturbances growing out of the late rebellion.
viz; "No officer, soldier, or sailor Of the Uni.
ted States, or Of the so-called Confederate

cooperating with any one of them, or with
the authority Of either government, shall be
held responsible criminally or civilly in The
courts Of this State for any act done during
the late rebellion, by compulsion, and under
color Of military authority"
Several hours were consumed in arguing the
question as to the application Of this statute
law to the case before the court by Col. Hill,
and the Commonwealths attorney; at the close
of which his Honor gave prompt decision in
the following words:
Gentlemen, feel the weight Of response
bi!ity resting upon me in deciding this ques-
ton, but | have given the subject much
thought, and am bound to say that cannot,
in the Constitution, find any clause giving the
Legislature Of Kentucky the power to pass an
Act that would exempt from trial and punish /
ment, man guilty Of murder under the cir |
of which the prisoner at the bar
stands charged. | desire that you take the .
ease to the Court of Appeals, and will allow .
YOU to prove anything you can, and will IN
-truct the jury as to what deem compe-
lent evidence"

everal witnesses for the Commonwealth. nd

line the trial re-opened, and the entire dav

which, court adjourned to meet this morning
