To the Voters of the Fourth judicial
District.

In the Owensboro Messenger and
Examiner of the 18th inst, appears II
card from my competitor for the office
of Commonwealth Attorney-Mr.
Joseph Haycraft-which is calculated
and designed to place me in a false po-
sition before the people of this district.
In Justice to myself and friends it
becomes necessary for me to submit to
the people of this district IA true state
ment of the ease, as pertains To said
communication. MIR. Haycraft at
tempts to create the impression that
am opposed To full expression of the
sentiment of the Democracy of this
district in the pending contest for Com
monwealth Attorney. Such is not the
case. Mr.. Haycrait, in the letter pub
lished by him To the Executive Com
mittee of Ohio County, and in which he
wishes ME to join, says: ave desire
the Democrats of Ohio county shall
have voice in selecting their repre-
sentative for this position. Ii is their
inalienable right, and a failure ON your
part, (meaning the Executive Commit
tee of Ohio county, To order the prima-
ry election in your county, in the man
ner and at the time indicated 10y the
Distflct toiiiiiiitttc, VIII, III oui pIih
ion, serve in effect and in fact to defeat
the object and aim of the primary elec-
ton ordered by the District Com
mittee."
No man is more anxious that the De-
mocracy of Ohio county should
unite with their brethren Of the
other counties of the district in
selecting their standard-bearers i'm this
contest than l am. did refuse to sign
said letter. My reasons are these: That
while said letter calls upon the Execu-
tive Committee of Ohio county to take

Whereas, the Democratic executive
committee Of Ohio county have failed
or refused to call primary election i'm
this county for July 3rd, 1850, and APP
point officers To conduct the same, for
the purpose of choosing candidates for
the offices of Circuit Judge and Com
monwcalth's Attorney, in pursuance
of and obedience to the order of the
Democratic Committee of this the 4th
Judicial district. Now, therefore, we
the undersigned Democratic voters of

urday, July 3rd, 1850, and will make
all necessary arrangements for taking
the vote. We urge all Democrats of
the precinct, who desire the success of
the Democratic party, Ia come out AMI
participate in this election. Without or
ganization with more than one Dem
cratic candidate for any one office, sue
cess is very uncertain. Independent

STEALING IN HIGH LIFE.
Nnw Nnrk l'rihililc.

A very singular case of thioving in
high circles has been undcrinvcstiga-
ton by the police for over u week.
The story has been whispered about
in fashionable circles, but the social
position of the persons concerned has
prevented publicity, while it has also
compelled the police to work with
extreme caution, and has hanpercd
them in their efforts. A dinner party
was given recently at the house OF II
family well known in the wcalthicst
and most fashionable circles and oc-
cnpying u handsome mansion in one
Of the up town side streets near Fifth
Avenue. Eighteen or twenty ladies
and gentlemen were at the table.
The conversation turned on diamonds
and precious stones, and the hostess
taking from her finger beautiful
emerald set IN II cluster Of diamonds,
handed it to her ncighbor, calling his
attention to it's lustrt. The ring
passed from hand to haud around the
table, admired by all, and gradually,
the conversation turning on other
topics, was lost sight of. The owner
never saw it again. 1t did not COM
plete the circuit of the table, and in
whose londs it had last been could
not be determined. A number of
servants We're in the room and near
the table, but no reason for suspect
ing them could be found. Nothing
was left, however, but the conclusion
that either one Of them or one of the
guests had taken the ring. 1t had
been bought u short time before for
eight thousand dollars.
When the guests were separating
one of the gentlemen found the ring,
minus the gems, in his overcoat pock-
ct. He rushed at once into the draw
ing again. exhibited the ring, told how
he had found it, and demanded that
whoever had placed it shcrc should
now produce the jewels that had been
forced out of the setting. Everybody
seemed amazed, but no one helped
the poor gentleman, whose embar-
RAISING situation may be imagined.
He is of an old family, and bears IN
honored historic name. He was so
much affected by the occurrence as to
be quite i'll next day. Neither he nor
any one else is yet known to have
found any clue to the mystery.

TRUSTING a BOY,

boy whose face he fanciei, and calling
to him, asked If he Ind anything to
do jnst then, to which he said no.
"Are you q good boy ~ :.
The little fellow scratched his head
and replied:
II am not y very had boy. I cuss
. little sometimes"
That candid answer inspiled the
Bishop with confidence, and he then
said, after giving his name and
address: i
~ want you to 60 to q certain place
md get bundle for me and bring 1t
to my hotel. There will ben charge
Of $5 here is the money to pay It,
and a half dollar whicl, you will keep
for going the errand."
On his return to the hotel. the
Bishops friends laughed at him for
his crelulity, telling him thathe would
never sec tho hoy or the bundle Or
the money again /: but in half an hour
the chap returned, bringing the
bundle and q receiphd bill for $3.50,
tho Bishop having made slight
mistake as to the amount that was
due.

extra half dollar y he inquired.

WHAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE ?

A writer, discoursng upon the way
wealth is accumulated, says, that, as
n general rule, it is the result of econ
omy, industry and attention to busi-
ness. Poverty, on the contrary,
comes from idlcncss, extravaganza,
inattcntion to business. OF course
there are numerous exceptions to
these general rules. But the facts
Justify the writer in the following
sketch.
Here are six shocmakers working
in one shop. One of them attends to
his business; you can hear the music
of his hammer late and early. He is
in love, it may be, with some girl on
the next street. He has made up his
mind to be man, to succeed, to
make somebody else happy, to have
IL home; and while he is working, in
his Imagination, he can see his own
tireside, with the light falling upon
the faces of wife and child.
The other five gentlemen work as
little as they can, spend Sunday in
dissipation, have the headache Mon
day, and as Il result, never advance.
The industrious one, the one in love,
gains the confidence of his employer,
and in a little while he cuts out work
foI these other fellows.
The next thing you know, he has a
shop of his own, the next store, be-
cause the man of reputation, the man
Of known integrity, can buy all he
wishes in the United States upon
credit.
The next thing you know, he is
married, and he has built himself Il
house, and he is happy, and his
dream has been realized.
After awhile, the same five shoe
makers, having pursued the old
course, stand on the corner some
Sunday when he rides by. He has
got a carriage, his wife sits by his
side, her face covered with smiles
and they have got two children, theil
faces beaming with joy, and the blue
ribbons are tluttering in the wind.
And thefeupon, these five shoemak.
ers adjourn to some neighbOring sa
loon, and pass resolution that there
is an irrepressihle conflict between
capital and labor,
