The appointment in German Township was made by the Democrats of this city without the authority of Col. Lane or any of his friends. Col. L. has been speaking every week day for several weeks, and is afflicted with hoarseness. He feels, therefore, that all he is able to do is to fill his regular appointments. The debate to-night at Mozart Hall will be lengthy, and he can not go into German Township and do justice to himself. He regrets any disappointment that may be occasioned in German Township by his absence, but it is physically impossible for him to go out there and fill his regular appointment here in the evening besides. It may be that some person will speak out there in his stead, but we are not sure of it, at the late hour at which we write.

Don't forget to attend the political discussion between Messrs. Lane and Hendricks, to-night, at Mozart Hall. The speaking will commence early. Let there be a full house.
