nemncratin Court Expenses.

The expenses of the supreme court Of
Indiana, comprising democratic judges,
from 1871 to 1876, amount to 1868, S11.62,
exclusive of the salaries of the judges and
pay of the clerk. The largest part of this
sum is in the personal account of the
court. From Nov 1, 1871, to Nov. 1,
1875, the court expended on female help,
s2,439 10, and upwards OF $4,000 In the
private sleeping rooms Of the judges. The
court went largely into the business of
purchasing travelling bags. One bill con-
tains the following items Two docu-
ment satchels (travcling valisss), S43; three

The court charged for washing twenty-five
and thirty dozen pieces monthwhich the
Cincinnati Gazette thinks must include the
Judges ehirts, socks, etc. The bills show
a large amount Of Competing, rugs, mat
tresses, etc, purchased for the Convenience

of the Judges. Several hundrh dollars

year for the same set OF rooms and 800
were expended for travelling sachels with

Another Kentucky Tribute to Mr.
Bristow.

The unanmity with which respectable
citizens Of Kentucky Of all parties and
classes testify to the genuinencss OF Mr.
Bristow, to his integrity and to his SINGER
ity, to hic capacity and to his honorable
record, is something remarkable in these
days of disputed character and sharp par
tisanship. No ordinary man, certainly no
weak or false mar, could have gone through
such an experience as Mr.. Bristow has
gone in his home state, these last fifteen
years, aud receive at the end such tributes,
such plaudits as he is now receiving from
all sides there. Here is another illustration
Of how Mr.. Bristow is regarded at homo
written by prominent Kentuckian TO an
old and intimate friend in Massachusetts,,
and not intended for publication, and so the
more valuable al testimony. The writer,
Judge Ballard, is judge of the United
States district court for Kentucky, au ap-
peintee of President Lincoln, man OF
very high character, and one Of the origi-
nal emancipationsts of his state.
LOUISVILLE, KY, April "a, 1876.
| Mr.. L. Maltby, Northampton, Maes.-
| NV Dear Sir: Your favor of the Goth
was received, last Saturday, and l mailed
TO YOU on the same day, a newspaper con-
TAXING a sketch of the life of Bristow. ]
have not myself read the sketch, but as 1t
was prepared by one of his friends | sup
pose it is accurate.
I will now add for myself that ! have
known Bristuw we'll, Tor 10 years, and
that have been intimate with him most
OF this time. feel therefore that | can
speak with great confidence of the quail.
ties both Of his mind and heart.
Allow me, then, to say that he possesses
clear, comprehensive intellect aud o
sound judgment, and that fer uprightnesE
and purity of character no man living sur
passes hin. When fret became acquaint
cd with him he was, as his father before
him had been, an emapcipationist. lie
was then q colonel in the service of the
United States. and thus bore testimony az
well to his patriotism as to the depth ant
sincerity of his conviction. lie has al
ways been the enemy of slavery, and, il
my opinion, he is rs true republican al
can be found in the land.
1t would give me great pleasure to SCI
Mr.. Adams president of the United States
, but more than doubt whether he can b
elected. 1t will be difficult for the repub
licans to elect any man. but, If they arc t,
succeed, am persuaded it is to be done by
: selecting as their candidate some man no
only distinguished for intellect and puril,
of character, but one who is in some sens
the representative Of purity-the embodied
opposition Of corruption. No fair min,
, can, think, doubt that that man is Brs
tow, for certainly he, of all the prominen
, republicans in the country, stands mos
: identified with efforts to expose corruption
and to bring swindling officials 20 justice
: The purity Of his life is known TO all 0
his acquaintance, and it has now been At
tested to the whole country by the wicket
and vain efforts of his enemies and rivals t
assail it.
Very respectfully, your obedieut servant

1t is all well enough for the papers in the
third district, in the endeavor to defend
the representative in congress from that
district from the charge of neglect OF duty,
In that, during one session Of congress, ho
was absent or not voting one hundred and
seventy-one times being present and voting
only forty five times, to slur Colonel Joyce
by saying that If Hendee "has not flooded
Z" the country with his speeches it Is credit
" able to him, and there is one other dis
{" trict which would be glad to have Its
member learn the same modesty and
" prudence" 1t is oil well enough for a
certain Rutland paper to approvipgly copy
this slur, although it knew the contempti-
BILE insinuation to be false. But when q
southern paper refers to speeches made, and
sentiments held, by members Of congress
from Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont,
and in commenting thereon we say--and II
ia true-that "if 1t were not for the first
" district, 1t would never be known from
anything that transpires there that Yer
"mont was even entitled to represents
tive IN congress-" the ID lie to pay
generally. But our comment was true
nevertheless.

Now we come to think of it, there is a
probability that If Mr.. Denison had hap
pened to have been in congress, he might
have been in favor of the present post
master of Rutlsnd-sltbough we have,
heretofore, given him credit for too much
intelligence for that. But he voted In
favor of third term, and representative
30 voting would be capable of the other
act of folly. Babcock, too, was in favor
OF q third term and opposed "TnE CLONES
candidate for postmaster in this place, I"
II it had any-he certainly was warm
supporter of the present POSTMASTER in
" this place who has great "regard for

stood, too, that Babcock conspired with
the st. Louis whisky thieves to rob the
government, and with parcel of detect
ives, burglars and sneak thieves to rob a
safe in Washington, but that makes no
difference, he is ATTACKED simply be-
cause of the "defeat of The GLOBES can

Success seems to be the motto of the New
England Axle Company. Its progress con.
tinucs to even more than meet the expecta-
| tons of those who have taken hold Of this
new enterprise.
The past six months business has added
strength to the merits of the Axle, and 1t is
fast becoming one of widespread reputa.
ton. The steady increase in the use OF
the Axle, as well as sales for the exclusive
| rights to control the use of the Axle, seems
proof of this fact. The alacrity of the peo-
| pie to purchase exclusive rights for the
control of this Axle, is good assurance of
its great merit.
The patentee of this Axle, Mr. II. S. Les
sor, during the past month, has made can
vass OF some portions of the state, and also
that of New York. The sales in New York
during this time comprised the following
counties Clinton, Essex, st. Lawrence,
Franklin and jefferson.
The addition of Mr.. Lessor, to those
already in the field, will soon bring this
worthy Axle sufficiently before the people
and convince them that we have got what
has long been needed in the market.
Nothing like this Axle has ever been
offered tho public before. For neatness.
simplicity, durability, convenience, with
all other qualities so different from others
now in the market, it must extend itself
rapidly in the future.
More good agents are wanted to canvass
for the sale of this Axle. The following
states are now under control by general
agents California, Ohio, Iowa, illinois
ana M.ob. IAN, portion of Vermont and
New York

Tor II. 1t does require the least attention
OF any axle have ever had in my use, and
the axle is well worthy of anyone's notice
The facts of this axle having SO decided an

ton l have derived from its use, is cause
