Now what will the Democracy do T Tbe cuuiuiit tce find nothing wrung, and tLereby the charges that have been st-ut abroad agaiust that department, and on wbicb the Democratic party counted so much for political eapital to fool people with, amount to nothing. The clamor against the State Treasury by the Democracy b-aS furnished the Democracy with ma terial for a number of cauipaigus. They .will have to invent noinetbiug new now.

The one buudred thousand dollsrs was voted to bim with out a dissenting voice, and this shows how Mr. Beecber stands amoBg hhown people. At the Centennial celebration of the battle of Bunker Hill, Oeneral Sher man in a speech, said in substance that tbe loyal people forgave those who bad forgotten tbe allegiance due to their countiy, but they did uot wish them to forget it again. Southern men cid not like the General's remarks, and since tben he bas been informed through Southern papers that he should wot forget that by the Beit election there will be more Congress men at Washington who favored seces xion than Congressmen who favored tbe union of tbe States, which, when inter preted, means that if the General does not qui . talking in that way tbey will abolish tbe office, by Congressional en-1 aclojcnt. tbat he fills. A m'jibf.r of Democratic journasl are denouncing Republican papers for writing sgainst tbe proposal to set apart a portion of the common school fuud to the use of the Catholic cbnrck.

Last week tbe committee of the New York Aseiub!y, charged with tbe inves tigation of the cause of the increase of crime in New fork,' on Wednesday ex amined William A. Martinet, who was on tbe police force eight years and a ward detective four yeara. He testi fied that while be was a detective in tbe twenty-ninth precinct tbe keepers of panel houses paid to Capt. Burden $75 a week aud fifty per cent, of the amount named by complainants. - Tbe gamblers and keepera of houses of pros titution used to pay for police protec tion. He believei that this practise still exisUd. lie was sure that no gambling or panel houses could exist in any precinct without the knowledge of tbe Captain. Thieves and pick pockets were well known to most Of tbe detectives. There was little encour agement to detectives to arrest thieves. They might take a wan to tbe central office and swear that they that he was a thief, but tbey would probably meet tbe man in the street tbe next day. . In reply to the committee's question aa to the recovery of stolen property,' Mr. Martinet said that much of it was re covered through collusion between the thieves and detectives. When a public man's property was stolen tbe pick pockets were warned that unless it waa returned tbey would all be "run in." That notice usually brought back ' the propel ty. This is a case of liquor trouble as despatched from Columbus, Ohio, last Week : For some days a warm conflict has been going on in WesUrville, this coun'y, between tbe citizens of tbe vil lage and one Henry II.

Until Wednesday tbe war bas been one of words, but last night some persons unknown placed gunpowder under tbe saloon building, and, by means .of a fuse, the charge was fired about midoight, which demol ished' the doors and windows, and raised the roof four inches.

Tbe trial of Parker, tbe ex-Treasurer of South Carolina, for frauds against tbe State amounting to Dearly half a million dollars, was begun in Columbia last week, before Judge Carpenter and a jury composed of five white and seven colored men.

On the Bight of 'tbe 9th inst, at Long Point, III., an attempt Was made to rob Adams' Express ear, on the Van dalia rwiroad. Tbe engine and expresa ear were cut loose aud tbe engineer killed. Buike. tbe ex Dress aeent. bar- sa ricaded tbe doors and kept tbe robbers at bay until help arrived. A more re cent despatch gives details of the at tempted robbery and tie murder as! follows : Long Point, III., oa the Vsn dalia railroad, where tbe attempted ex press robbery occurred, is situated io tbe middle of a dense woods, no per son living within a mile and a half of tbe station. At midnight, on tbe 9th, when passenger train No. 5, bonnd east. eooductor Fraley and engineer Mi!o Ames in charge, stopped at tbe water tank, two men boarded tbe engine, one from eaoh aide, and ordered tbe engi neer to start the engine. Tbe engiueer, after a few minutes' hesitation, obeyed tbe order. After tbe starting of the train one of the robbers remarked, "We will run tbe thing ourselves," aod immediately both robbers fired at tbe engineer, killing him instantly. Tbe fireman, who was standing upon the tender, ran to tbe rear of tbe train to alarm tbe trainmen, he having beard the conversation, and comprehending tbe situation at once. While this was taking place on the engine a confeder ate of tbe robbers bad detached the Adams Expresa car from tbe ears in the rear. The whale party of robbers tben ran tbe train to a point about two miles from tbe station, where they stop ped, and proceeded to the door of tbe express car, demanded admittance. The express messenger. Sir. Burke. told them that be waa ready for them, and tbat rf they entered they would be dead men. Tbe robbers then com menced ffrfng hi to the car, and the mes senger says it seemed to him there was a docen of tbem, as tbe shots eame from all sides. The conductor and trainmen, seeing the position of affairs, set about to pursue tbe robbers,- but could only find one revolver etf (be train. They, however, discovered two soldiers armed witb carbines, and with these weapons the trainmen and soldiers started after the robbers. Whet f&ey eame up to I tbe tram all was quiet, tbe robbers having fled. Tbey found tbe dead body of the engineer on the floor of tbe cab. A freight train engineer named Jack Vandergrift happened to be on tbe train, and be and tbe foreman ran tbe engine back to the train aod" brought it io. . Tbe robbers failed to gain an en trance to the express ear, it being one of tbe close kind, baviog no windows, and very strong in every way. Had tbey detached the American Express ear, wbicb was immediately in rear of tbe Adams Express, they might have accomplished tbeir purpose, as it is an open car, baviog windows aid doors and not very strong. Tbe finding of a hammer used to knock out the coupling pin may serve possibly as a clue to the murderers. Tbe trainmen speak in very high terms of the plnck and eounge displayed by Express Messenger Burke There is intense feeling among railroad men over tbe tragical death of Engi neer Ames, and should bis murderers be canght it is vety generally believed tbat their prosecution would sot cost tbe State anything Several suspect ed persons are already in custody, and there is reason to bope tbst all the rob bers will be caught. The railroad com pany offer $1000 reward for tbeir ap prehension. General Francis P. Blair expired suddenly at midnight on tbe nieht of the 8th inst., at bis borne in St. Louis.
