Tho Nows Not .Vcry Encournging--Buat Stlck Togetlier Thoy Must Until the Next Electtons . A rogulsr mooting of tho Pérsonai Liborty Lenguo was hold, yestorday &ttornoon, phirsuant to n rosolution providing for the holding of meot- ings on tho first Friday in oach month; It was contemplated to assemble in thoe auditorium of tho Globo Theatre, but, as the attondance wis 80 8mall na to make but a.beggarly sliowing in 60 largo & room, it was doomted advisablo to con- vono in tho hall up-siaifs, whord dbout forty 8aloon-keopors eventually put in sn appoarance. The mooting was called to order by the Prosi- dont, who proceeded to stato tho tosult of the | recont viait of himsolf and Mr. Biovers to Spring- fleld. Ho statod that all . amondmonts to the prosent ‘Tomporance Iaw had :boon roforred to tho Tomporante Com- mittes of tho Houso, whioh ‘stood 7 for ‘temper- anco and 0 for the saloon-koepors, Tho majori- ty of the Committos had dotormined to roport no bill whatover, but tho minority would: report cortain amendmonts to the Inw—among thom a clauso ‘restrioting the ponnlty. to tho-sale.of liquor to porsons known to bo_ habitual drunk- axds, g0 that tho snloon-koopoers must bo ad- vised and notified ‘beforehand ns to tho persons to whom thoy must not gell. This olause would result, practicnlly, in dostroying tho offect of tho ontire law. Anothor amendment' would bo rocommonded, holding the drunkard equal- lIy- rosponsible with the saloon-kespor. It was not thought bost to attempt a roponl of the law just now, but rather to do- stroy its forca by the righe kind of amendments: The temporance eloment bad a majority in tho Logislaturo, but there was ground for hopln that the {mlnnt obnoxious law would bo modi=’ {led 80 a8 to worlk loss fnjuriously to. the saloon- koopor, Tho Cool County dologation. was ail right, with the excoption of two or throo, and could ba rolied upon to tiok to the liquor inter- ost. Whnt was now nocossary was to sustain the Liborty Leaguo organizations thronghout the Btate until next fall, and thus work unitedly in olocting the right kind of mon to tho Logielaturo. Tho speakor deprecated tho small attendanco, as it looked a8 though the intorost woro dying out. He urged: them to stiok to- othor until the timo camo to make their com- ined influenco felt at tho eleotions in the fall, An offort would be made by the tomporance peo- plo to re-oloot Medill, or some . othor Mayor oqually objectionable, and if the liquor-sellora hnd noy iden of protecting thoir interests thoy must work together harmoniously. Mr. Siovers, who had aleo visited Bpringfiold, mado a somewhat similar statement. It was suggested that, as for the presont there waa no especinl business to bo transacted by the Longuo, it was useless to moet onco » month, and, on motion, the proviously passed resolution to that offect was roscinded, and it was voted that whon the meoting adjourn it bo subjoct to tho call of the Presidont, rs Mr, Blovors 6tated that, although regular moot- ings should not be held often, the work of the Lenguo was still carriod on by the Exzecutivo Committee, who wore cortainly Iaboring with the Common Council in the hopo of securing a ro- ponl of the Bunday liquor ordinance, and woro attonding to such othor businoss as was neces- eary to be transactod. Bome difficulty was ex- Eofloncm‘l in tho non-attendance of members of hio Excoutive Committeo, snd in order to rectify this delinquency, he moved that the Committeo, in all casos whore mombors failed to attend its meetings after having beon notifled thoroof, be authorized to removo tho absont members and chooso others in thoir stead, Tho motion pro- vailed, and, aftor a littlo more desultory talk of no conscquoncs, the meeting adjourned. e THE VILLAGE OF EVANSTON. The Aunnnal Contest for the Icdzle Prizo at the Northwestern University. The Mothodist Church was filled on Thursday night with' a woll-dressed and ~ respectable audiencs, called togother by the annual contest for the prize in declamation, established through tho genorosity of J. H. Kedzle, Esq. Tho.ex~ oxolsos, which wora announced to bogin at 73§ o'clock Dy railrond time, were delayed until 8, out of courtesy to those wicked proparatorians who so assidoualy distributed mock achemes. Whon the audience wero woll snpplied, Dr. M. 0. Briggs offered the invocation, Prosident Fowlor announced to the sudienco that the prize was to be divided into two portions, the largerwvor- tion or first prize to go to that declaimer who exhibited the most’perfect conception of tho thought and sontiment of the piece to bo ren- dered, and who gave tho bost rondition. ‘Tho romaining portion to be disposed of on tho same goneral principles. 3 B. 0. McPhemu, the first declalmer on tho list, ‘hoving made up his mind to grapple with tho *Irish Disturbanca Bill of 1833 made his bow to the audience. Ho seemed in the main to uudorstand the meaning, and workod bimself into the epirit of the pieco. At times a slight nasal twang could bo detected, nndnlthnugg Le displayed & good deal of apirif and animation, yet it secmed to be rather an elocutionary effoct than the outgushing of tha natoral afilatne, 0. M. Ellingwood followed with “Robert of Bieily” for his solection. This gentleman had not that resonance in his voico that careful train- ing imparts; s Luskinoss, and, at times, indis- tinotnoss, impaired his_pronunciation. ~He pos- seasod, however, LEnnd descriptive powers. Miss Sarah Catheart’s rondition of “ Mother and Poet " cannot be treated in & radical manner pro or con., excopt that there was too much monotony. Her selection was one admirably adapted fo a womnn and a woman's voice, pathos and sorrow being Qhwrndnmfinlnt omotions ; emotions which generally ovorpower any lady, or at loast appoar o to do, unaccustomed to pul lic sponking. The - Eagle's Nost,” solocted by F. Taylor, appeared through all its Emu a8 about to end in atragody. And it may bo that this fact nill ox- plain the near n[‘)prom of tho spoaker to rant- ing. The sclection was too long, and ono which, from its suljoct-multer, pleased the audience when finishod. i ‘I'ho fifth sponker was A. J. Whippor; his sub- jost, “Bcono at the Natural Bridgo, Virginia," "Thiu gontloman had a fino conception of this highly exciting piece of declamation, and de- livored it in an ingonuous and natural style; flll!nn;éh at times thero wora attompts at dramatio effoot, Mr, Scott Mathows 'cast his pabulum into “Webator's Raply to Haines.” He spoke with & good-natured voico, and a distinot and deliborate enunciation, but with a Iackof earncstness and conception of the importance of the debato he essnyed to reproduce, #Unjust Natural Acquisition"” was fairly pronounced by B. 8. Bradford, The speaker had & good voice, but the artificial utterance aimed at destroyod tho life of the selection. Miss Emma B, Parks mede an unfortunato se- lootion in ¢ High Tido.” Her voice was good and her powers of elocution more than ordinary. Btill, she soomod to iguore the truth thatitis impoasible to make an sudienss, comfortabl; seated in a commodious church, go distracter and wild over an abrupt and nolsy desoription of eome scene of peril. Thero is something irrosistibly ludicrous In theso ltlbm&fll at dramatio effect, doatituto of m& surroundings favorable to such an end, 0 ono ia allowed to onter for this prize who l? not freo from conditions, and oleotod Ly the class, Mies Eva Mattison, Georgo H.

Now it has boon a timo-honored practico, aftor the pulling of a- gambling-house, to son & carriago (at tho oxpenso of the gm‘flofl) to tho rosidonco of o Polico Justico, Tho lafter, anxious to socure the foes provided on every bail .bond, would slways hasten to the spot, und the prisonors would bo released on bail, This privilogo was never oxtonded to tho Mapless proatitutos, but tho gamblors, being a sounrce of rovenus to certaln potice officinle, wero treated with marked_’ distinction. On Thursday night, however, o chango came o’er the apirit of their drenm of froodom. Thoro wasno Justico sont for; 1o champagno aupper in the offics, no sign- ing of bail bonds, and'no re-opening of the house an hour Iator. The gamblers were locked up in colls like other prisoners, and. impressed with & wholesomo experience of the unplensant- noss of boing arrestod. .Thoy carsed and swore ‘with becoming vigor, but_this failed to. assist their doliverance. Yostorday morning the batch was brought bofore Justico Banyon. Bergeant. Lull produced a deal-box which was boing used when the arrest was made, and oxplained to the disgust of tho gamblers that it was o “brace” box, eo_construoted that ono or two cards could bo doalt at a time, *‘the ssme with intont to doceive,” TFor a - “sport” whose protestations of nnfllnuhl‘nfi honor have beon mnde a8 nolsily as MoDonald's, this was not a yory gratifying announcoment. It morely went to show that gambling in_Chicago is conducted in the intorests of tho faro-banks in & manner calculated to reliovo the pockots of tho long- earod patrons of tho game.. Mr. Banyon, for some oceult reason, which the prisoners could rhaps explain, fined the ‘proprietor 360 and 0 inmates 825.

He Quictly Walks Out of tho Armory While His Guard Is Asleep=-A Policomun \vho De- ecrvea to be Promoted to Olyil Life, If Mr. Dickinson hisd not shot Jack Allen as he was loaving tho former's house, it is probable that Allen would not, this morning, be tasting of the swaots of liberty. ft has already been stated in Tne Tnmone that this man is tho leader of the gang of burglars arrested last Sun- dny night on State stroot ; that ho wasshot in the back while burglarizing a house on Morgan street, and that he was romoved from the Oounty Hos- pital to the Armory on Tuesdsy, His wound nppunxlng to give him great &nin Caprain Hickey and his Bergoants sgreed that tho lock-up was no.place for.a man in his condition, and thore- fore improvised o cot in the Armory’ kitchon, & Bnug, WaArm room, where almost any porson migat take comfort. ack was too weak to cxgrus in words his gxnflmdn to Onptain Hickoy, but ho exhibited it every other means in his power, To manaclo the prisoner seemed absurd ; but to keep pres- ont in his mind the pleasing fact thtio was in custody, Policoman OCharles Swain was detailed ‘to watch ovor him during the night. Bwain accepted the charge, s if it wero n sort of rolief from his daily labors. .Nothing in his mind scomed mora plensing than, on o Marc] night, when tho winds were howling, to toast his ehina'by a rollioking fire, with nothing more bur- densome to do than watch the gentle broathinga of s holploss man. This position he filled with much orodit during the nights of Tucsday and Wedneaday, Ono Thursdsy might, however, Jack Allen, the helplasa (?), miraculously recov~ ered from “his weak condition, and, covering himself with his clothes, escaped from the ous- tody of his guard. What ho did after this, can- not, we regret to say, bo told with acouraoy. Hed Officor Obarlos Swain porformod his duty, of .courge Jack Allen would etill be a lan- %luuh.lng invalid in the Armory kitchon. ‘here are two reasons givon why the offlcer did not porform hia duty. His own story is, that about 4 o'clock ho went out of the kitchon for a few moments, lenving tho door open ; that when ho returned hia man was Efm' 1t seoms to bo the opjnion of the men at the Armory, howovor, that .tho comforts by which ha was ‘surrounded soothed the officer to sleap, and that Jack Allen marchod out of his prison to tho timo of the nasal tune which poople sing whon they sleop. In either case, the oflicor doserves severa cen- sure, if ho maynot, indocd, bo romoved for oriminal negligence. ' Up to 'a Iste hour Jagk Allen had nof beon rearreated, and it is likely that Ohicago will not hear of him again, in tho capacity of a prisoner, ——— STREET IMPROVEMENTS.

A Trmuse reporter dovoted a portion of yostorday to the caso, and succeeded in ostablishing its falsity so far s tho rosponsibihity of tho ballor was concorned. The namo of the man who signed the bond is Richard Biakoman, and not Evans. Ho appedred before Judge Willlams, in the Orim- inal Court on Thuraday aftornoon, ncoom= piiéd A B.

This was considered sufficiont by the Court, and a roloaso was mado out. As soon na Barron waa liborated, ho jumped into & hufg{ standin; noar tho jall, and was driven off.

Tho fact that Trude transforred somo real es= tato to Blakeman, per se, is unimportant, but tho time when tho tiansfor wag mado, nlthough the circumstances attending it are unknown, may glve tho public anides Low criminals escapa {rom tho clutches of justico.

It is well known that Barron had Blunny of money at his command, aund, bad tho ail boon §5,000 or 86,000, ko would have de- posited the cash or socurity. Mr. Trudo assorted yostorday that his cliont has not loft tho oity, and did not intend to do so. 1t is, howover, boliovod that tho hatol thiof will 1ot bo presout when his case is called for trial.
