In tbeflrst piles tbo-artlols In tbat papar wanld lead tbe general toader to infer that thli papar wat and bad been la' tbo bablt ol uitalnlog aad upboldlog amusement! cal eulaUd lo'"lmpalr tbo pablls morals," or which that journal professes to ba ibo groat htad and Iroot, proTidad aoybody "csa aat It," which from recant observation mad In on r soaring by tb stsunebsst frleads ot tbat Jaurual in tbia vicinity, wr have re, son to doubt, especially tbo morality pert. In onr artialo on tbo Derrick's eritloioroo r tbo ibowmtn, wa diitloclly dated tbat we koew nstblag whatever "of tbo merlti or demerits oi Tooy MoCryilara Female JUnelM!," bat did sty tbat wr tbougbt tb severs orltlciima of tbat paper on deserving Iroupas wra unjust. Tb srticles in tbi papar show plainly tbat '-stamps talk" loud with than, sfss wby do ibay advertise and puffapao-callad Immoral asbibltiom (tea notice of Tony MeC s Mioatrala in tbat pa set n day or two since,) and upou tbair do. pirlure frbm town, after aattllog their bill to an honorable manner, Iben taking occa sion to "stab ibem In.tba back." If stamps don't talk, wby,-oh why, dost the iumacu. lata moral bead and frent or i.'iat j.uroal, do any advertising whatever for Minstrels Theatre, Can Can Troup, At, but In stead carry' but ' Ibo msralliy dodge to the letter said spirit of tbo editor' belief, and rafua all patronage of tbat kind for rear or Injuring tbo publlo morals. ' Either "stamps talk" or alto tba Can Can advor laament would never have appeared In 'Wat paper, s everybody acquainted with the proprietor or tbo Otl City Public Moral, understands tally what a "hankering afler the DUby luora" they have, morality being thought ol Immediately after tba bill Is settled, tbut forming an etosllent cloak for what savor Strongly ot etiorllos. With regard to tks Icagnege osad by tba " Derrick In speaking of the show people sod 4!fflD(lltn With Oil tbat il r .li aad In1- oent, we bare only to give aa onr opinion Ibal the cbarga is abiurd and ridiculous Evry perioo'atall conversant with tb shew business, koowi that there are thoui aadiof blgh mlndid noble men and women wbot daily bread II earned by appearing before tb loollighla nightly, and even daoc ing In tbeJardln MabilleCan Can, ur tak log tba cbaracter or the Preooh Spy. Men and women who would acoru to do a bae action; whoae Uvea are without a blemish, and wboae society is courted by all. If the Derrick la 10 itrlolly moral wby did It outrage decency by advocating the per- nioiouc doctrine of "abortion," or In plain er language "infant murder." Ifio tearful of coriuptiog tbe public morale, wby did it not devote the ipace given to tolling tbe people tbat Tooy McCryital'i Female Min atrela wera "prostitute! and pimps," ualng language tbat even iporting papers would not allow, thereby aecuring tbt-m crowded bouaee aud "Injuring tbe public morals" from tbe atandpoiot oftbat paper, to relig ious reading beneficial to tbe morality of tbe public and not Injurious. And, in conclusion, wby have no lets Iban one dozen subscribers to tbe DerricK In tbii place, In formed us "ibal the language uaed in that journal would not allow ol;tbetn placing it before their famlliei." Tbese are faoti without atampa. Of tba morality ol tbo two journal we leave the publlo to judge, Tbe Record may ba 1 indecent," but during our connec tion with it wa have always endeavored to carry out our conviciiooa ol right, to which our friends and subscribers will bear test! mooy to, and if Madame Janauscbek, Mr Tony McCryatal, Mr. Stetson or Mias Lydia Thompson, act in a fair and honorable manner with ul, we shall treat tbem iu Ilk manner. "Stamp talk honorably with us." Finis. About two o'clock yesterday molding, the Ice broke up in Oil Creek at Pioneer, and cams down with a rush, forming a gorg abo.it half way between the Boyd and Eg bert farm bridges, aad flooding tbe flat ror some distaocs, causing several families re siding sloag tbe banks ot tba Creek to move out in bnrry. For n abort time It was feared tbe w bole upper ead of tba toan would ba iwept over by tbe huge masses of les which cams tearing alssg at a Irigbtful rata of speed and piled np ou top of one an other at lbs gorge. So great was Ike alarm felt that many famil iea commenced moving out tbelr bousebold effect. Fortunately, during the day yesterday, the water in tbe Creek fell, aud oa further damage is appre hended st present.
