LEGISLATIVE.

LEGISLATlNE.
EDITOR HERALD:-Again l attempt
to gather few notes from the "Capi-
tai" for the readers of the HERALD.
Nothing of general Importance to rec
ord. The Legislature is still pretty
full, several absent members having
returned.
The bill creating board of "1nter-
nal Improvement" and providing for
working convicts on the Kentucky and
Underwater rivers was defeated in the
House, and there is now q bill before
both Houses for extending the Peniten-
tiary. The Codes of Practice have
been adopted by both Houses. Anoth-
err bill for establishing a Bureau of Ag-
riculture, Horticulture and Statistics
has been reported to the House but
not yet acted upon. .7-... -s
A bill to reduce the fees of the Cir,
cult Court Clerk of Jefferson county
was passed by the House, the provis-
ions of the bill to take effect after the
present incumbent goes out of Office.
Every effort was made by the Louis,
vile delegation to keep this bill from
coming up. .. ..
There is an effort being made to re-
incorporate the l.. P. IL S. w. Rail
road, also to prevent it from falling in
to the hands of companies who may
buy part and control the whole road.
Hon. w. b. Machen, Judge Conklin,
and Judge Bigger have been before the
Railroad Committee for that purpose.
A bill has passed both Houses pro-
viding a charter for an Ohio County
Bank.
A bill has passed both Houses al>
lowing claim to the Ohio County
Court for keeping Jacob Halves, pau
per lunatic. --...... b..
A bill has passed both Houses for
the benefit of j. b. Stevens and others,
enabling them to bring suit against the
Commonwealth for damages incurred
in consequence of the Green and Bar
rem rivers lease to a company, by which
the Rough creek improvements were
worthless.

In an article last well, in which we
justly called the Republican party to

resolutions adopted by the last Repub.
iican convention held in the court.
house, it seems the responsibility is sup,
posed to have fallen upon the shoulders
of Mr. E. J.. Wise, 1t was not the in.
tention of the writer to. convey any
such idea-it was not expected to ap-
ply personally to any one, but mere.
y TO the spirit Of the Republican party.
Mr.. Wise says, he tried to impanel q
white jury, but, without OBTAINING farm
ers who had come to town on business,
he could not do so, and permitted him.
self to be influenced to summon negroes
without thinking of the Consequence
considering only the present emergency
and not the evils, which would be en-
gendered by the precedent. We do
not wish wiiifully or maliciously to
wound the feelings Or injure the. social
standing and prospects of any one, but
at the same time consider it our right
as well as duty, to think and speak on
any subject that may, present itself,
especially one of such vital importance
TO the community and country gener>
ally. 1t is dangerous to act against
our better judgment-let the outside
pressure be what it may-and we are
glad that Mr.. Wise isnot to blame in
this affair, but only acted on the sug-
gestion of others. u sfsaaE' -rasa

The Fish BiII.

We arc astonished at the action Ut

fcating the Senate bill providing for
the stocking Of all Streams with fish.
We are glad TO know, however, that a
motion was entered TO reconsider, and
it is TO be hoped that the members vot-

minds. This is one of the most i'm,
portant bills that has been presented,
and ought to receive the approval Of
every Legislator in Frankfort. .-

RESOLUTIONS


-
WHEREAS, 1t hath pleased our di-
vine Grand Master to call from labor
to refreshment our much esteemed
and venerable brother, VIM. Field;
therefore be it H.'.s
Resotred, That we receive with feel
ings of profound regret the announce,
ment of the death Of one, who for so
many years has been identified with
the social, industrial and masonic
interests of the community.
Resolued, That it is not mere full
some hattery to say of our departed
brother that he possessed in an emil
nent degree, and happily blended, the
constituent elements of a true and
noble manhood, and that during the
whole course of a long and laborious
life he discharged faithfully and well
the various duties devolving upon him.
Resolved, That although our brother
so long survived all his children
whom he loved so well, and was as
one of past generation, the rare
virtues of whose character retained
the friendship which his brusque, but
hearty hospitality attracted, yet he
died surrounded by loved and loving
kindred, rich in the respect and good
opinion of his neighbors, in the fra,
ternal regard of his brethren of the
mystic tie. who feel on this sad occa.
sion that an ancient landmark of their
order is fading from view, and regIe.-
ted by the community at large.
Resolved, That we shall endeavor to
profit by his noble example of stern
devotion to right and duty, and his
supreme hatred and scorn for every
mean and unworthy principle Of
human action.
RESOLVED, That we attend his funeral
in procession, inter his FeRaius with
masonic honOrs, and wear the usual
badge of mourning for 80 days.
ResOlred, That these resolutions bt
spread upon the minutes of our lodge,
and be published in the HARTFORD
HERALD, and that copy be pre-.
sented to the aged widow of our
deceased brother, to whom, in heI
affliction we tender our sympathy and
kind offices. JSO. &. RILEY.

Att meeting of the Democratic
State Executive and Central Commit,
tees this day, held at the Office of Isaac
Caldwell, in the city of Louisville, a
convention of the Democratic party
of Kentucky was called to meet in the
city Of louisville on the 25th day of

FROM OMENSRORO.

EDITOR MISUNDERSTANDING is al
present very quiet, although everybody
is doing some business. The tobacco
business. which is very extensive
one here, is about Over-at least moth.
ing like the quantity is coming to mar
ket that has been received heretofore.
We don't say it boastingly, but then
Greensboro can't be beaten as a tobacco
market in Kentucky. There is fully
as much, if not more of this staple
handled here than in Louisville, con,
sequently good deal of money changes
hands, which makes business in all
lines tolerably good.
At this time We have one of the
most social little cities in the world
but this can be accounted for when
tell yeu that nearly everybody is a
candidate for something. We believe
there are already eight announced for
the Office of City Marshal, while there
is no end to the number for Council
men and Mayor. Greensboro also has
one candidate for Judge of the Crimi-
nalcOurt of this district, in the person
of Hon. Geo. w. Ray. If elected,
we believe he would make a faithful
and efficient Judge, but he has some
right popular gentlemen to contend
with, and will have to "stir his stumps,
as the saying is to be elected.
Spring trade is opening up here, and
agneat many of our merchants are off
East after their stocks. A large spring
traders anticipated by all.
We had the pleasure of meeting on
our streets last week; DR.. L. G..
Armendt, and his brother, William,
of your city. We found them both
very pleasant gentlemen, and if rumor
be true, the DR.. will locate among us
soon.
We have been reading the HERALD
ever since the beginning of its publica-
ton, and we await its weekly arrival
with much pleasure, and no sooner is
it received than We dive deeply into its
contents. We notice in the last num-
Der that Mr.. L. Barrett, has charge
of the local columns, and from the
stylish manner in which he gets them
up one would suppose him an old hand
at the business, but then as we have
some acquaintance with him, we know
that this is his first effort in. localizing.
In the way of amusements Owens
bOro can beat the world. One night
we have a grand Masquerade ball; the
next night the Reading Club, follow
ing that, the Juvenile Minstrels, and
so on; having something to amuse our
selves every night. The Juveniles
gave an exhibition last Saturday
night. "a Or -.ag. . ..r.

THE CAMPAIGN COMMENCED. GOV.
HENDRICKS AND THE GERMANS.
1t is gratifying to be able to an,
nounce that the National Committee,
whose headquarters are in Washington,
are industriOusly at work, arranging
plan for conducting the campaign.
The address to the people of Louisiana,
at theAgricultural Fair in that State,
by Gov. Hendricks, opens the cam =.
paign. 1t is a matter of deep regret
among the many friends of the dis
tinguished Indianian that a number of
leading German politicians, and jour-
nalists of several States came to
Washington, during the late meeting
of the National Democratic Commit
tee. to warn the members of that
body, and the democrats of both
Houses If Congress, that the nominal
ton of Gov. Hendricks for the Tres
idency would aleniate the entire Ger
man vote of the country from the
democratic party. Their reason for
believing this is that the Germans are
dissatisfied with the action of Mr..
Hendricks in regard to the liquor ques-
ton i'll the State Of Indiana. They
say that, during the late canvass, in
his speeches and in private, he eX-

tory or strict license law, and yet, after
his election, wien the Legislature
passed a stringent license act, it
became law by receiving his signa>
ture. A German who had been cans
vassng Indiana in the interests of the
brewers of the United States was here
at the same time, and affirmed that
Gov. Hendricks could not get dozen
German votes in that State for the
Presidency. 1t is contended by the
the friends of Gov. Hendricks that all
these Germans have been unconscious
ly duped by the Republicans, who
know that the Governor would be
strong man before the people, as the
democratic nominee, and are, there
fore, anxious to kill him off at once.

not entitled to protection as Minister of
