I The House of Congress thinks thatSTAif- X.ET Matthews should come before the Potter Committee audi cive in his little budget of gossip. The announcement of the vote on the Tresidenfs title resolution did not fall upon the ears of Jim Blaise like the lute's lascivious plensing. i Tue car-wheels did their work yesterday just as usual.

S. J. Tildejc has an eye on both Thcr- JiA and Hendricks. The old man is giving the boys plenty of rope, but keeps a tight grip on the handle of the windlass. Blaise took occasion yesterday to pay that Packacd's title to the Governorship of Louisiana was just as good as Hayes' title to the place of President.

ij No love between RlTHERFOBD and JiM. A score of Radical platforms havo dropped to the ground as limp and useless as a worn-out dishcloth, and more are falling. The passage of the President's title resolution knocked out the underpinning. Mr. Satleb ought to have that "harbor of refuge" comtilcted by the time the fall elections are over.

The Enqcibib has for many years been upon cor- uai terms witn in is gentleman, who, as a promt- nent Democrat, at all times manifested his ness to render servioe to this Journal, and upon many occasions he has evidenced his friendship by acta. No one was more earnest than Colonel Dck- catr, in 1873, to secure the nomination of" Governor ALLkwand the success of the Ohio Democracy upon the platform then proposed. And the letter published by us in August, 1873, from Colonel Duw-cah on the subject was very effective In producing results, and preventing the false idea of again placing the so-called Liberals in the lead.

In 1875 Colonel Duncah again rendered us all the aid in nis power, when the the astern Democrats were attacking Governor Allex, and maturing the plans which caused his defeat for and pre vented his subsequent election to the Presidency. since that time Colonel Dcmcam baa been a pronounced opponent of both the Democratic and Republican parties, and a prominent leader in the Independent and National organization. We have written this to show what he has been and is, and the cordial relations which have ex isted between the Ekquibes and himself, because of a statement which was inserted in the EN' QCisek last August, coming from oar correspond- ent in Louisville. A gross libel was perpetrated upon him In one of the Louisville papers, and. during our temporary absence, this libel was im properly repeated in the Esquires; and would not have been published if it had come under our supervision.

It Js very clear that Colonel Dckcan understood the position of the Ekquibes toward him, ai no attempt was made by him to make us responsible for the act of the Louisville correspondent. But he proceeded against the libeler in that city, by crim inal indictments, and after proving in open Court ah $741 1 wVi a nlrae fal a aV Ah Annsanta b)a vu Niat aAABj UkrUI UM9VUVWJ Ut VUliOVUtCU rv permU th- to fll open Court a state ment that It was a libel, untustained. which bad been uttered upon the pledge from others that they could and would substantiate it. The counsel for defendant stated that he had for months sought for evidence In behalf of his client, and could not find a shadow resting upon the reputation of Colonel Dtjxcam. And then, win the consent of .1 voionei uukcah.

wno aesirea vindication ana not vengeance, tne two indictments were permitted to oe dismissed. Tbe law Iff Kentucky as to llbol Is very severe. being fine and imprisonment al the discretion of the jury. The suggestion has been made to us that the very large circulation of the Emqoireb and the influence conveyed to its than a hundred thousand readers, necessarily was prejudicial in this Instance, and that, even If there were no relations of amity. Justice would require prompt and full reparation of any Injury.

We therefore take great pleasure In publishing this statement as a complete withdrawal of any offensive or injurious reflections in the col umns of the Enqpibee relative to Colonel Duncan. It is rarely that a man, can come unscathed out of libel snit; but in this Instance, bitterly as he Is hated in Keutucky for bis pronounced and un swerving opinions upon the labor and financial questions, and eagerly other papers would have heralded any smirch upon his reputation, his triumph over his political andpersonal enemies has been complete and crushing. And this gives an impetus to his influence upon Ihe politics of Kentucky which will show maUted results In future contests. Curtis Cornered.

BOCXCIXO BRAl'X. Tbe Trouble of Collector of Fossil. If general report speaks truly, Frederick Braun, a collector of minerals and fossils living at No. 15 Canal street. Is much to be pitied, for of a certainty his Unes are not cast In pleasant places.

June 17. be labor troubles which have threatened for tbe past few weeks loomed up in the early part of to-day, and all tbe forenoon there was a most feverish condition of affairs. When the hour arrived for the laborers to begin work on the large, new Chamber of Com merce, the walls of which are up to about the first hlffh. the men who tend the masons refused to go to work for the same wages as last week, and demanded an advance ot a shilling. The bosses and sub-contractors "arrived, and did the unwise thing to quarrel with some of them, Mid immedlatoiy there arose an intense excite- l.icnt wttniu a snort time, borne nunareos 01 men.

a largo portion of them laboring men out of em ployment ana sympemizers wiin tne strikers on geueral principles, gathered ou tho spot and Diocxaaea tne tircets. The wildest reports spread, one ot wiitcn that tbis was the work of the Commune, to cor roborate which a member the police force reported bearing that every new block in tbe city was placarded with a mysterious hand-bill in cabalistic aud unintelligible characters. Instantly search waj made about the block where tne strikers were, sua sura enougn one 01 toe Pla cards was found on ono of the balf-fiuUhed col umns. This increased the excitement, but. as if to fan an already dangerous name, some one hastened to cail the ponce, aim tne chiei, captain puray, with three or four onicers.

arrived in great haste. At the moment of their arrival tbe difficulty be tween the laborers and bosses had reached a stage tbat tho latter refused to allow any striker to go 10 work at any price. Chief Purdy misunderstood this. and. mistaking the boss to be one of the disturbers bent on hindering men who wore willing to work, instantly ordered his arrest, and he waa collared roughly.

Immediately the boss' friends became excited, and for a few inhiutos tbe utmost hubbub urosc, with threats 01 stoning and violence. Explanations were soon made, ana by the inter ference and influence of citizens tbe feeling was allayed and tbe excitement checked. However. the buiiclng has been nearly at a siana-suu ail aaj, less than a half -dozen laborers being at work. There is a bsd feeling to-ulgnt aaa was ail day on the part of the laborers.

They claim as their trricvance that tbey weie hired three weeks ago on an agreement lor si 'ia per day. and that they worked three weeks without any ray, and then when tho contractor settled with them Saturday night he paid them but nine shillings instead of ten.

The fated 17th of June has not brought upon tho dreaded stoppage of all car-whecfS in this vicinity.
