this evening, by which the robber got
away with seven thousand dollars worth
Of diamonds, being forty-eight cluster

The young man who did it bought a
ring of Duhme, yesterday, for twenty
seven dollars. This evening he returned
and asked to look at some diamonds, Mr..
Duhme placed two trays OF cluster rings
before him. The young man talked
like a man of business, and took off the
ring he bought yesterday and said
to give him box to keep it in. He
took the ring, turned to get box for it,
leaving two trays of diamonds on the
counter. Hearing the door, which was
only ten feet away, slam, he turned TO
the counter and found the man ard dia-
monds gone. He gave the alarm, and
pursuit was made, with no result except
to learn from some one that a young
man had come out Of the store in great
hurry, ran down the middle of Vine
street, and turned west on Baker alley.
IL was dark, and no clue has been OBJ
tanned to the man. A reward Of two
thousand dollars has been offered for

New YORK, January 17.-From
foreign files received to-day we clip the
following: "On Sunday, the fourth in
slant, the Duke Of Edinburgh arrived at
st. Petersburg in good health and cap
ital spirits, and an hour previously
carriages and sledges arrived at the rail-
way station to receive him, and present
ly guard Of honor, with a band at its
head, and a mission eagle displayed,
was drawn up on the platform. Soon
afterwsrd the Duke Alexis appeared,
and, saluting the guard with a
hearty "GOOd morning, soldiers, I"
was received with stentOrian response.
Next came Grand Duke Nicholas,
who gave and received the same greet
ing, and it now only remained for the
emperor to arrive, which he did few
minutes after two, accompanied by a
brilliant staff, among whom was the
British ambassador. AS soon as the
train had entered the station, the Duke
OF Edinburgh jumped out and advanced
10 the emperor, who gave him q most
affectiOnate welcome, as did also the
grand duke, the band meanwhile
playing God SdUe the Queen. The
chief thoroughfares were gaily de-
cOrsted with flags. When the duke
arrived at the winter palace he was re-
ceived by the empress and Princess
Marie, together with the imperial house

THE ELECTION QUESTION.

From the Jackson Clarion.l
Under an act passed at the extra ses-
sion of the legislature expediting actions
| by quo aUdrTdntO, the question of the
cOhstitutiOnality Of the election has been
brought before the supreme court on an
agreed case of the old and the newly
elected county treasurer of Kinds. Gov
erncr Powers having signed the act, and
anxious to obtain q decision at the ear
liest practicable moment, so as to deter
mine which is really the constitutional
State government, his own or that of
General Ames, claiming authority by
virtue of the late election, has lost no
time in bringing the question before the
tribunal having Jurisdiction over it
There is universal deter
minatioa among all good citizens to
acquiesce without murmur in the deci-
sion of the court. From inquiry among
the lawyers in attendance on the
supreme court, we are inclined to think
that the weight of legal opinion is de-
cidedlY against the constitutiOnality of
the law. The question was before the
court yesterday. A motion to dismiss
the case, submitted by counsel on be-
half of the Ames party, on the ground
that the court has no Jurisdiction, was
argued at length. The court took the
subject under advisement until this
morning Thursday

In the supreme court to-day, the motion

tutionaiity of the late election, for want
If DECENTRALIZATION, an aud thn
argument on the merits proceeded with.
Judge Potter made the opening speech,
and was followed by Colonel Nugent on
the other side. Judge J. A. 2. Campbell
concluded the argument at about half
past two o'clock, whereupon the court
adjourned until Monday morning, when
the result will no doubt be announced.
Much disappointment is manifested in
view of the adjournment until Monday,
as il was hoped that an opinion would
be announced at an earlier day; but it is
that the court will immedi-
ately consider the matter, and it is pos
sible that too much time for the adjudi-
cation of such a grave question has not
been allowed.
From the Nicksburg Herald.l
AMEs CONFIDENT.
Ames speaks confidently Of being able
to carry the day. He writes his friends
that he has consulted some of the most
eminent lawyers in the country, who
assure him the position of Powers is un-
tenable. He also says he has the SYM
pathy and support of the administration,
and that Grant is firmly at his back. |
Powers is equally as confident, and be- |
ing in possession of authority, proposes |
TO retain it as long as possible. A little |
war cloud looms up in the distance, but |
prudent, cautious counsel may yet dis
pei the storm.

ILLINOIS DEMOCRACY.

MEETING OF THE STATE COMMITTEE CALI.
FOR A NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ENUNCI-
ATED-FREE TRADE, HARD MONEY AND
HOME RULE.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, July @.-In pursuanceof q
call issued some three weeks since by Cyrus
III. Mccormick, chairman of the democratic
state central committee, that body convened
this morning at 10 o'clock at the Sherman
House, Chicago. The attendance was full.
Mr.. Mccormick delivered an address, in
which he stated that in view of the approach
ing election harmony of action was neces-
sary in order TO wrest the
party leaders: He reviewed the progress
made by the party and expresses
confidence OF the result in the coming con-
test. The meeting adjourned till 2:30, when
the following call was presented:
|. To democrats, liberals and all other oppo-
nents of the republican party, "The demo
cratic state central committee in pursuance
of the power vested in it by the democratic
state convention, hereby gives notice that the
state convention will be held in Springfield.
on Wednesday, the Goth day oi.August,
1874 at y. All the voters of the State are
invited To join in sending delegates to the
convention who desire to promote the fol-
lowing purposes: l. The restoration of gold
and silver as the basis Of the currency of the
country. the speedy resumption
of specie payments, and the payment
of all national Indebtedness In the money re-
cognized by the civilized world; second, free
commerce; third, individual liberty
and opposition to Preemptuary
lands; fourth, rigid restriction of the
governments both State and ma
tionsl, to the legitimate domain of
political power by excluding them from all
executive and legislature,a and intermiddling
with affairs of society where monopolis arc
fostered and privileged classes aggrandized,
and individual freedom unnecessarily
and oppressively restrained; fifth, the
right and duty of State to
protect it's citizens from extortion and un-
lust discrimination by chartered monopolies.
The committee believing that the opposition
to Republican misrule can tremendously
unite upon the foregoing principles,
earnestly solicits the tree cooperation
