JUDGE DAVIS.

There is good deal of dirty talk at Wash
Ington, started undoubtedly by the friends oil
opposing candidates that Judge DAVIS, OF lhlS
state, is coqueitlng with the Indianapolis IN
dependent convention for the presidency, a.
greelng to endorse their platform, but urging
them 10 put off making nomination until
after Dayis shall have been nominated al 81.
Louis, &c; and the y. Y. Eceni1g Pest re-
publican sheet with Tidenish procilvilicS,
takes IN the theme, and pursues it in thus
way:
For Judge of the Supreme Court OF the
United States to coquet with such shaooy
set of politicians as the managers OF the green
back party is a scandal which he coulu not
survive. The suspicion of an unworthy ahA'
ety for the Presidency left a blot upon the
reputation of more eminent Judge man
David Davis. The lesson should be needed,
for the result is sure TO be repeated,
While we cannot say that, rs between Davis
and Tlldcn, we have any preference beyond
a very slight leaning IN favor OF Illden, we
have no hesitation in proncuncing the whole
story of Judge Davis "coQuetlng' with the
greenbackers or anybody else, or consenting
even to'talk with them about the Presidency,
as utterly false Judge Davis is not fool
enough, because somebody has suggested his
nomination by somebody for the presidency,
to rush at once into print and decline what
he may stand no ghost o. chance of having
offered him He has never made an utter
ance to encourage the grecnbackers that he
would endorse their platform, any more than
he has held out any such encouragement to
the democrats or republicans. Judge Davis,
before hiselevation to the judicial bench, was
an old line wing. He never was either q
democrat or republican, except that in 1850
he voted for his old Kentucky friend Lincoln,
purely out of personal regard. Beyond that
he is as Independent and uncommitted and
uncons,rained in his political views as any
man of his prominence now living. That he
is sound on the specie basis, tariff and kin
ured questions we take for granted, because
he is man Of sterling good hard horse com
man spnsp

spring, further south the land is literally
drowned with water. At st. Louis the Mis-.
sissippi is at food tide overlooking the low
parts Of the city, and making a vast lake
of the low grounds opposite. Macoupin
creek, in Macoupln and Green counties, is
higher than it has been for thirty years, and
thousands of acres of corn land are under
water The same complaint comes from
Madison, Jersey, Scott and dozen of coun.
ties as far north as Ssngamon and Logan.
In many Of these localities, now flooded, oats
had been sown and corn planted, all of which
is probably labor lost.

COUNTY CELEBRATION CONTEMPLATED

We give elsewhere the proceedings of q
couple of preliminary meetings of the com
mittee of forty appointed to make arrange
ments for the proposed grand county celebra-
ton of the coming centennial 4th Of July in
Ottawa. 1t will be seen that the needed
funds are raised, and that there will be no
halt in proceeding with all the necessary pre-.
parations.
The list Of ub.commit,ees appointed on
Tuesday evening will give general idea of
what is contemplated 1t is intended to have
distinguished man from abroad as orator
Of the day; to have military and fire com.
panies from at home and abroad, to have q
turn out of all our civic societies; and to
have ORGANIZED DELEGATIONS In attendance
from, If possible, every town in the county.
As an incentive to towns to send in delega.
tions, prizes are contemplated for the largest
and best equipped that comes in. And then
&c, &c.
Let 1t be understood, then, that this is an
affair of the whole county, and that whether
all the towns cooperate or not, enough are
already enlisted IN il to make the celebration
an ASSURED SUCCESS! On that point there is
not particle of doubt 1t remains with the
patriotic people OF the county 10 say how

One of the meanest, drtiest bits of official
stealing lof which republIcanism has given
US many rare examples lately yet brought
to light, is ia al revealed by Miss Ada G..
Sweet who some two years ago was appoint

appears, got the Office by literally buying il

entire proceeds OF the Office by constan
threats Of having her removed rs deiaultcr

Piper, the Boston sexton who murdered a
little girl in the tower of his church one sun.
day while religious service was going on be-
low, and who for the crime had been SEN
fenced to be hung, few days ago surprised
his friends and counsel, who we're engaged
in efforts to have him pardoned, or at least
his punishment committed, under the impress
sion that there was serious doubt as to his
guilt, by bluntly confessing his crime. His
health was breaking down, and seeing his
end rapidly approaching at all events, it
seems he preferred TO approach his maker
with at least that load off his conscience. He
not only confessed the murder OF the child in
the church steeple, but also the murder of
Bridget Landergan, at Dorchester, IN 1873, a
murder that had hitherto been involved in
deep mystery.

The municipal revolution which had been

or less, was consummated on Monday eve

Mayor Colvin out and inaugurating Thomas
Hoyne as the mayor elect in his place. Sew

them Thomas Dent-gave it as their decided
opinion, after full examination of the ques-

Colvn was funct1s gffcio-that Is, officially de-

That is a sort Of hIppsnt talk that argues
want OF brains rather than smartness That
people care more to have silver than those
little promises TO pay" is shown by the fact
that though the silver Is practically worth no
more than the little rags, people prefer to lay
the silver aside and pass the rags. But there
is another consideration of vastly more i'm.
