Tlio MinJ-unniialMeport of tboTOinptrpllor,
for tho six months ondlntf the '4th- Inst., was
gprcad before tho readers of the Bulletin' yes
icrdnv evening From that source wo learn
that the entire standing debt of tho city is
only i"B",70 Theottt-tandlng scrip apd
tho claim of Mc. Fox. Howard & Co.,
cover $100,020 40 of tho total indebtedness,
nnd tho outstanding debt tho balance of 1182,
077 00. This certainly ii not nn alarming
duht for ii city to curry whoso population ox
ceeds 10,000 soul?, nnd whoso taxable proper
ty ii Ynlucd'nt'j.OOO.bOOl 'Many'cltlci In tho
northwest and south, of far less ability,
carry debts exceeding n hiilf million of dol
lars. During the six months previotu to tho 1th
of January, tho total receipts from nil sources
amounted to T0,S..2 33. This turn embraces
tho revenue for IBfeH, which amounted lo $52,
TilO C2, and n balance of $10,302 11 that was
In the tr..aury on the 1th of July previous.
The amount of scrip redeemed is set down at
$50,080 12. Tln-ro was in tho treasury on
tlio 4th Wist. $23,102 08, nearly nil of which is
held sacred" to meet hu accruing interest on
tho bondwl dobt of tho city. , , nr ,
Tliero was puld out on account of printing,
Job work, etc., IC22 17; repairs on streets,
$2,137 10; court of common pleas, $1,040 C7;
police, $2,fiW 48; new sidewalks, $.300 53
repairing old sidewalks and crossings, $1,087
12: officer's salaries, $2,800 00; Jail ana
JlUr, i 1,100 75. Tho total expenses of tho
municipal government, including the abovo
and other items, was, for tho six months
named, $21,005 40.
The mnrkethouse, which has been de
nounced as an unnecessary exiienso to tho
citv, I more than self-sustaining. It paid
into thoeitr treasury $1,201 22, and lookout
onlv 4328 17. When all Its' 'adjusted debts
aro pat J there will bu an execs of 1300 00, or
$t30 00, anyhow.
M'be drht of thcity was ltM?nrl -$41,079
C3.
L'ton tho whole we think the report ex-
h'.V.ts the Unancinl alfairs of the city n t
verv health v condition. Why the city's f'vl
donees nf Indebtedness should rato 30 and 40
cents Mow. when each recurrlnit year's
taxes absorb nearly the whole .amount, , is a
(pietIon more readily asked than answered.
That there is sufficient cause for it In the n
nnncial aspect of our corporation affairs, is
vcrv far from ovldeiit.

Congress, following in tho foot tup of its
preile,eor, Is hummerini; away at the ne
gro. The Imagined wrongs and grievance
of that sooty rneo rank paramount to all
other contiderntions, and claim attention
when tho interests of tho republio stand im
periled through neglect.
Another constitutioual amendment is con
ceived nccctsary to tlx the political statu of
the uegro, mid the Judiciary committee have
traturrd and rejxirted it. It declares that
thu right of any citizen to hold tho office of
elector of pronidunt and vice president, re
presentative in congress, and member of the
state legislature, shull not be denied or
abridged by tho law-making power of any
htnte, or any citizen or nuy claiti of citizens:
that race, color or previous condition shall bo
no bar to u freocxurclso of that right.
"Why do tho radical clamorcrs for negro
xpiulity stop here, and leave half their work
undone ? Tho doors to tho presidency and
vi -a presidency yet remain closed against tho
Inutk man, and until they aro thrown wide
and oven ontered by a braco of odorous, long
bevled, lubbor-lippcd Africans, the radical
agitation for thu oqualily of tho negro will
not cease. Why does Mr. Uoutwell, who re
ported thl amendment to tho constitution,
Vp short of tho manifest purposo of tho
radical party ? Ho Is In favor of removing
all social as woll as political restrictions from
the negro, yet contuuts himelf with oil'oring
his 'aun-nmsked" brother only a cushioned
sent in tho senate and houso of representa
tive! Why doe ho not play out tho full
radical programme? Hy so doing tho begin
uiug of tho end of this infernal agitation about
tho "oppressed African" will bo brought to
viow. Tho negro may li satlslled with n,
seat in congress, but tho philanthropic Now
Kn;'land radical will not cease tho ngltation
whilo "his man and brother" is closed out
from tho dignity of tho presidential chair of
this won-dorful republic.
77; MARION JIOMIC1DK.
We have already announced tho violent
death of a young man named 1. . Corder,
a rosident of Marion, in Williamson county,
at tho hands of another resident nainod Sam
uel Cover. It appears that Cover and a young
er brother of Cordor ciuno to blows, last Fri
day, and that tho rencontor resulted in tho
discomflturo of tho latter. Cover plead guil
ty boforo tho mayor next day, and was fined
ten dollnrs. Whilo In tho act of stopping out
of thu mayor's olllco he was accosted by P. F
Cordor In a vcrv angry and insulting man
ner. Ho attempted to avoid a difficulty, and
told Cordur of his avoralon to Author trou
bio. Cordor finally assaulted him, whon thoy
lioth clinched. During tho struggle Cover
drow a pistol nnd shot his assailant through
tho nock, tho wound producing death almost
instantly. I heso aro tho details as given by
tho Carbondalu 'Now Era.' Judgo Mulkoy,
was employed to defend Covot, nnd visited
Marion on tnat account. At ono timo tho ox
citemont ran vory high in tho village, and
Cover's conflnomont in Jull is said to have-
saved him from being dealt with in u summa
rv manner.

Tho great produolrig rcgldns of tho nortn-s
wcst'nrc turning their attontion to tho Missis i
sippl rivcr'aitho outlet for their produce,
and to Cairo n..thernd distributing focus.
Tho I'hillndolphltt 'Jivonlng rutriot' as
iens as the reason for this tho immense cost
attending thobjpuuiut fcprn -east through
Chicago. It says that this immouso tax UjKin
tho ,rmcM,ofIowu,WIsc.oiiiii),IJnnesqtt.
and of a largo portion of Illinois has compell
ed them toit'ilfn their attention .to' tlio outlet
via Cairo and Now Orleans, which oint aro
nccesi"b(o to them by" water, 'with little or rip
railrondlng, u , . .
Tho frelnht on a bushel of cram from Chi
cago to Uullhlo is 10 cents, from Hullalo to
Now York is 18 cents ; cost, bf mnndlingutt
Chicago 0 cents j totAl 34 otits pur bushel.
From Cnlro'to-NcsV'Orle'ans the freight is 11
cents pcr bu'shelj Handling at New Orleans
1 cent; total 12 cents, making adillercnco in
favor of tho routo via Cairo of twrnty-lwo etuis
ptrbwh'll To Liverpool tho diiferenco be
tween th freight on a biuherof grain from
Cairo and from Chicago is estimated at about
15 cents in favor of Cairo !
These figure, which aro furnished by ac
tual experiment, dcignato Cairo as tho future'
grain market and entrepot of tho northwest.
The twenty-two cents per bushel in favor of
Cairo and New Orlrans, renders this outlet
not onlv tho best and chospct for train des
tined for "European markets, but for tho mar
kets of the Atlantic seaboard. It would pay
for thu, transportation of grain from New
Orleans to New York and leave a margin of
at least six cents to tho bushel I
The 'Patriot' justly remarks that the farm
ers of tho riorthweH'a're tired of paying trib-1
ute to tho railway ,kfngs nnd canal lords of
Chicago and New lork, and aro now deter
mining to consult their truo Interests here
after by using those great highways of com
merco channeled by tho hand of the Almighty.
With this vifw they are adopting all legiti
mate means within their reach to unprovo tho
navigation of tho upper Mjilppi and it
tributaries, that they may roach Cairo by
water, and thiuilnd a perpetual roleaso from
tho tyrranny and extortions that bavo served
to impoverish them and enrich the "monopo-
lls" controlled by Chicago

Ho was examined at length, and favored

In ii recent conversation with the New
Yorkors, general Grant expressed himself in
favor of n'vigorous retrenchment in tho pul
lic expenditures, and his opposition to grant

A Mysterious AsTatr.
Homo weeks ago tho bodies of a man named
Ansbach and his wife wore found at their
rooms in Cincinnati under circumstances that
led to tho belief that the husband bad shot his
wife and then killed himself. .Since then Mr.
Schutte, a brother of Mrs. Ansbach, residing
at Dayton, Ohio, has been Investigating tho
matter, and has arrived at the conclusion that
it was a doublo murder, and committed by
partios who mado their way into tho houso
soon after tho old man returned homo. Tho

waist wus cut open, and tho monoy wa gono
Tho drawer was robbed of sovernl dollars
which tho shop girls know were in it when
thoy closed tho storo. A Jar in tho cupboard
hud boon robbed and tho boxes of trcasuro
under tho collar stairs had been hastily dug
up and their contents carried away. All these
clrcumstunccs Indicate clearly that Mr. A.
did not murder his wife, and thon tako his
own life Mr. Schutto'a theory is that parties
ERIDAY BVBNfeJcr; EtfRY 22,
who had tho ccrot pf,rs. A.'n hiding. places
for her money, made their way into tho houso
beforo Mr. A. returned, and that tho thieves,

ILLINOIS LEGISLATUKE.
FullerS Itnllrond 1)111 In tho limine.
An Animated lllacussluli.
Very littlo business of general interest was
transacted in the senate on " cdnesday.
Mr. Ward renorted back the bill for call
inir n convention, with amendments to tho
etfect that tho election shall be held next No
vambor Instead of April, tmd that the conven
tlon assemble January 1, 1870, which recom
mendatlons wcro adopted.
Mr. Fuller renorted back the bill amend

with a substitute giving tho Judges power to
pass the death sentence in cases wncro crimi

1.. . I- - 1 .Analf. I , 1 1 1 .ilfflt1.lt.lrt
railroad fares was generally discussed.
Mr. Stanley ottered a substitute tnat overy
road new organized, or which may hereafter
bo organised, shall bo required to establish
a uniform rato por mile, for transporting pas
sengers and freight over tneir respective
roads, and shall huvo n schedule or these rates
posted in a conspicuous placo in every station.
If any railroad or Its employes rccoivo pay
for carrying freight or passengers before
posting up such schedules ft shallbo liable to
damages in double tho amount of tho money
collected, and n sufficient attorney feo to be
collected in any court or competent jurisdic
tion. If nnv railroad employe charge otbar
rates than those on the printed sccdule,, tlio
person so offending shall bo deemed guilty of
a mUdonicanor, and if found guilty bo fined
not leis than ono hundred, and not moro than
ono thousand dollars, and Imprisonment of
not less than thirty day or more than ono
year, or both, in tho discretion of tho court!
provided that uniform rates may bo collected
for attachlug and detaching loaded freight
cars.
Mr. Millor, of Cook, moved that the bill
and substituti- be sent to the Judiciary com.
inlttue. to examine and report whether such
legislation would release any road from the
pavment of tax, and that the whole matter bo
. . , -ii-. .i-..i
mado thu souclnl order for Wednesday.
Mr. lltiilv, of Stephenson, hoped it would
not bo put out of tho hands of the houso now.
It was an important measure, in which tho
people took great interest. Whilo its friends
should not forco it, ho thought u discussion
on the question of railroad legislation would
not b" throvn away, "o iiopeu mai ucuaio
w.miI.i nr,t lw, shut nir. Tliev had thought
over tho subject and moro probably preferred
to consider tho bill, in oruor to ouiatn wnai
he desired, ho moved that tho houso go into
committee of tlio whole, on the bill.
Mr. Millor, of Cook, said ho had no desire
to cut off debate; but. since the bill had been
presented, questions had arisen, notably in
regard to tho Illinois Central railroad, which,
according to tho opinion of some of tho
supremo court judges, would free that road
from its tax; still ho woum wuuuraw his mo
tion. Mr. Ilailoy spoko a second timo at irreat
length in favor of tho principle involved in
tho bill.
Mr. Tarker. of Coles, thought Mr. Jlalloy
dodged tho real points which would como up
In tho courts, no intenueu to voto airainst
tho bill and wished to clvo tlio reasons. There
was a growing popular prejudice against too
railroads, and If tho peoplo wero turned loose
in many cases their tracks would bo torn up.
That had boon dono in a county near his.
Tho passage of tho bill would conflict with a
well settled point oi constitutional law. xney
wero not hero to liston to popular anneals.
Tho federal conbtltutlon declared that no itato
could puss a law impairing tho obligation of
contracts. Tlio friends of tho bill had to as
sume) that a railroad charter was not a con-
Irnot. fir tlint tlin lilll did not iniTinii-h ntitrnrl
Ho claimed to show by reforonco to tho U. S I
supremo court decisions that a chartor to it j
railroad mado it contract. Itallroads wcro .
public corporations only so far us taking land '
was concerned, and tho Michigan caso quoted i
by Mr. lliiiloy referred to that point only,
and not to cuntruuU at all. Nor was there 1
any distinction between banks and other closo
corporations and railroad'". It was out of tho j
power or leghiaiivo io( ues to divost any l
them of their vetted rights. Nor would their
charters bo impaired by tho passage of this
law. Almost all charters hud contained a
clauso empowering tho road lo lis rates ami
tolls with such discrimination as thoy might
