ale civil rights bill from the speaker table and
pass it. 4 number of Republicans who would
have voted for The bill we're absent last Monday
when the movement WIS made to take it fro m
the Speakers table, and several Republicans
who voted against it. There we're only six votes
needed last Monday to make the necessary two
thirds, aud it is believed by the friends Of the
measure that more than this number can be Sc
cured on Monday. The colored members of The
House say that is allimportant that this bill
should be passed before the close OF the session,
and ihai if it Is defeated, erec.aily though The

there will no doubt be revolt among the color

Tho City Council Culpabie.

We are sstonl.hed that the Corin,,rtta3 ventures
to attempt to excuse and shield the ma jority OF
the City Council from The oulpabic neglect we
charged upon that body.
We charged no design in any member to de-
fraud the city. Bat We did say that the revela-
tions which have been brought 1olth had their
origin in The accidental employment OF Nj.
Wolley and in the discussion which Messrs
hayes, MclntIc and other Democratic members
raised in the City Council. Tins discussion took
place previous to the last city election and hot
subsequent to ii, as the Commercials article
would lead the reader to infer. The reader will
remember That Mr.. Hayes said the city was IL
dehtrd about sso0,Ooo which the majority de-
nlel.
We nre now quite convinced that had np. The
Democrats fought thc disposition Of the majon-
~ to lun the city lhto debt, the majority would
have gone ON III ther Wild career and our citizens
would have iouud the.r elty oyera million Of
dollars in debl and the cmbez element OF MI

tempt on Tie pat Of the city officials to conceal
the state OF the accounts. These deficiencies in
MIR. kIllgorls accounts were known rs long ago
as january, how much iuItbor back we cannot

Bat the lncapacity or oulpability becomes the

The beauties of RECONSTRUCT

The lseauties of Reconstruction.
We copy from Charleston journal one of
the most painful stories we have read since the
war. IN single county in South Carolina there
had been a public sale of property which had
not paid lis taxes. Within five days twenty
nine hundred pieces of real estate had been
thus sold. In other words, the owners of TWEEN
ty- nine hundred farms and homeseads are so
poor that they cannot pay their taxes, ard SO
submit to coniiscation. surely there must be a
cause for this n cause, the ey iStence of which
is IA sin and 4 shame. We say nothing of the
scenes of devastation inflicted upon the Caro-
linas by Sherman's army; upon the fact that
the army was vrtua'lypermitted to pillase the
state which generated secession and was the
home and grave of Calhoun. Let history pass
upon that as it may, pass it AS one Of those
dark memories which we would gladly thought
foregot. But here is a case for which no war
necessity can be pleaded South Carolina has
been governed so wantoDly, with such a total
disregard of public rights and private security
that she sinks into inaniton, that liberty com.
fort and pursuit of happiness seem to be i'm
possible. The single incident thus recorded
llluminates the whole Southern situation and
dishonors ,he administration OfGeueral Grant
when his yeaTniDg was for peace. But can
there be peace with government which a.

In the case of the State VS. John Weirc-
ter, on indictment for selling liquor to a
IMMORTAL at last term of court, the de.
PENDANT was fined $50 and costs. The
Judge overruled the motion of w. b
Hess, Prosecutor, to declair forfeiture of
the permit of Weierter, and all the rights
Hereunder, as apart of the judgement of
conviction in said case. There was a
very full discussion of the motion, pro
and con, by the members OF the bar.
The case against Matt, of Bourbon,
was taken under Amusement by the
Judge. In that case. Masz was prosecu-
ted for selling liquor without a permit ;
though his permit had not yet expired
by operation OF time; but he had been
convicted before Snep, Justice of Bour-
bon township, after obtaining his permit,
for selling liquor to person in the habit
of getting intoxicated, and it is now as
sumed by the Prosecutor that the convic-
ton before Snep worked forfeiture OF
his permit and all the rights Hereunder,
under the latter clause of Section 8, OF
the Baxter bill. If the court sustains the
position assumed by the Prosecutor, Mr.
Hess, the most OF The saloon-keepers in

as We are credibly informed that nearly
all of them have been convicted since OBJ

Matz was fined in one case SIS and
costs, for selling to minor. Case under
advisement.
Hattie, druggist of Bourbon, paid SIC
for selling without a permit. Hattie dis
missed his appealed case.

RIVER BANK, IND, May is, 1874.
Mr.. MILLIKAN:
Since the copious showers of Friday
and Sunday morning, the wheat and grass
seem very much revived. Prospects are
good for fair yield in this vicinity,
though in passing through other parts of
the county, we see some fields of wheat
that look very spotted, especially on low
places, or on clay soil
Health generally good, though the
mumps are going the grand rounds"
The ST. Johns S. s. is in prosperous
condition, ant has resolved to have have
a pick-nick some time in June.
Though it is truthfully said we have
no saloons on our farms, the ladies' of
this vicinity have organized temperance
league, and have been holding their meet
ings regularly, once week; but 1 learn
with very meagre attendance, though
those who do attend seem to be very
courageous. The officers of the league
are: Mrs. Eleanor Travis, President
Mrs. nj. L. Travis, Secretary. Last
Thursday evening they held mass meet
ing at st. Johns church, which was
tolerably well attended. The ladies acted
well their part in the opening and man
agement of the meeting.
Rev. Spangler was first called and res
at Ia
by paying handsome tribute OF respsc1
to the old Washingtonian society. telling
of much good being accomplished by
them; and also the order of "Good Tenn
plars," thereby contradicting the very
broad assertion that men have utterl,
failed in every attempt to do good in tn
temperance line; though he thought tn
women had now hit upon the right plan
and that they were looking in the RICH
direction for assistance. He gave then
much announcement and promised hi
hearty support.
Next Daniel Jacoby, Sem, was called
He began by saying that he approved O
the wOmen's movement; but denorInce,
all other Temperance associations as nv
pocritical and of bringing about no goo,
results: but we think his remarks wer
founded on too shaky foundation t.
"stand the storm"
r. C. Stanley was called, but de clined
stating that he had twice express ed hi
views on the subject very recently, to
public audience, at the same place.
Peter Jacoby was then called end res
pended and expressed himself e:ltremel
temperate in the line of drinking.
We would suggest to our frien
Twist" that he instruct the farmers il
that vicinity to SOW their oats wher
their neighbors' chickens roam, and the
will undoubtedly come up.
