TUESDAY, iVSl-: -, I The District lulrrmil i'CTcnue Offices. The Vincennes Sun, some days ago, pave currency to a rumor to the effect that the present Assessor of Internal Revenue for this collection district, Judge Bowman, of Vieconncs, intended to refuse to deliver the said office to his successor, Mr. James IIMcNeely, of this city. Judc Bowmax has published a card, denying the correctness of this rumor, and by implication declaring Lis readiness to yield the office to his successor on demand. lie had previously assured Mr. McNeely to the same effect, and has since reiterated the assurance. For the convenience of the outgoing officers, and the smooth and uninterrupted working of of the service, the new Assessor and Collector for the First District do not intend to assume their new duties until tho 1st of July, the commencement of the nest fiscal year. At that time the Assessor's office will be removed to this city, and tho principal office of the Collector to Princeton, the place of residence of- Dr. Lewis; the new Collector. The latter will have a branch office in Evansville, and will spend a considerable portion of his time here in person. The design is, considering that the bulk of the revenue of the district is collected in Vanderburgh and Gibson counties (in which latter there are three distilleries), to make the offices as convenient a3 pos sible to the citizens of the two couu ties who have business 'with the iuternal revenue officials. To this end all the offices connected' with the service ie Vanderburgh county will probibly be uear together, ou the secord floor of the Washington Block, west corner of Third and Main Streets. Evansville. a central and accessible locality. There will probably be some changes of subordinates"; in . the .district, but the new appointees will endeavor to so act in recommending changes that the efficiency of the service will not be impaired. Political considerations nceessarily and rightfully (under our system of governmeut) enter into there matters. While this is so, the faithful collection of the revenue and the regularity of business ought not to be interfered with. Hence the incoming Assessor and Collector will doubtless proceed cautiously in the performance of their new duties. We arc well pleased at ihe prospective removal of the Assessor's office to this city, where .the heaviest work of tlie district is done. Personal. The many friends ol Lieutenant Governor Cumback in this section of the State will bo highly gratified to read tho following item, which we find in the Madison Courier of the 11th inst: "A private letter from a friend at Washington says: Your friend, Will Cumback, is supposed to be on the high road to success in his application for a foreign appointment.' " o c c i s i o a l t o i ; u k s r u s i) s s c e . Chicago, 111., Juuc 11, 1SG!). Editors Journal : . J ust a week ago, almost to the hour, I sat down to write you from Peoria, and, before I had hardly finished, found I had to pack my bag and baggage and make my way hither. The day previous had been a swelteringly hot one, and brought vast multitudes of the Peorians to their central square, where their city band discoursed free music, and tolerably good. This day seemed just like its predecessor, only more so; but before noon tho sky became leaden, giving us chill showers, and the wind ."chopped round" to the northeast, and before we reached the Garden City we had to have fire in the cars, and so heavy was the gale that, as we drove our iron horse along the shore of the lake, we had tho grandest kind of display of " white caps," as the came rolling in upon the shore, rollicking and tumbling among themselves like so many great awkward Arctic bear cubs. Overcoats and stoves were good for Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, and then it softened down a little: and on Wednesday it rained as though it had ; never rained before, when iu iact it had done nothing else for the last nine or ten days. . ; The country between Peoria and tjI faso is under fine culture; and with their rich lands and extensive use ol norse power, they canuot but make it an easier lite and pay better iuau wuu our way ot iarmiog, which is a gentle hint to we South west uoosiers to tail into line with improved instruments. My friends lleilmm, Seantlin, and Babcock will please take note and inwardly di"est and advertise argeiy. And now, while 1 am on this sub t iUii:ii . ject, a may say mas ngus ana joy are just breaking in upon 'me as to the divine ordering and Harmonizing of events by the Good Being above; inasmuch as the women are coming into line upon their rights, I am beginning to see how they are to take their full share with us "in the course, of human events." As I intimated a week ago, farming is greatly running into horse-power. So that you'll ride while y u plow, ride while you cultivate your coru and potatoes, ride while you mow and reap, and rake and bind up; ride while you dig or drai? out your potatoes and hag them; and ride when you take them to market! Who cannot si.e that a buxom lass with a good pair of gauntlets on, and a sun-bonnet, or, prettier, a sundown with wild flowers iu it, can do all this just as well as a stalwart boy indeed, stalwartness is to be ot little account hereafter. We're to hnvo the golden medium, diminution ol muscle on the one part and a little increase on the other. Hereafter smartness is to be in demand, and tact, and grace and winsomcness. Jl;u! to the Jialeyon days that arc before us! Aren't science and Providence preparing for a good time coining? Can't you see the new arcadia when our wives, aud sisters, and sweethearts will be by our sides everywhere, and never leave us or iort-ake us, and be downright "helpmeets" to us, and keep a talking and singing to us all

the time so as to let us chase the rosy hours "just as nice " as though we were in a parlor or a ball room, only a great deal more useful making money and enjoying ourselves at the same time.

Well, from LI Paso to Gilman, where we struck the Illinois Central, the country is largely in the rough. For miles and miles no . fencing, and far miles and miles the primeval prairie in all its enameled SpriDg beauty of white, yellow and pink, and even scarlet flowers spread right and left around you, as far as the eye could reach. It was a glorious' sight, and vet, like sailin? on the ocean, these rides 'upon the prairies are monoto nous, and you long for the change of wood and hill, and rock and till, such as you find in your common country Leaving Gilman, we came into the Kankakee country, which is"very fine. Kankakee City is more of a place thai I supposed, and teams to be growing in lmnortance as a business point. And now here I am at the end of mv naner. and takins up my pen with the intention of telling you about ni.ieajro. haven't becun on it with the first word. Can t help it now. Iut the Chicago papers have been greatly engrossed with some four exciting eases of litigation, all but the fourth having come to on end about the same time, lhevbelons to tour de partments, so that we can clas9 them monetary, matrimonial or ratner monico-matrimonial). criminal, ana ecclesiastical. First, was the Mulke-Ulich case, in which Mulke. the confidential clerk and favorite of old Ulich. the million aire, had become principal legatee Tho Ulich children had the wu broken. The difference between the Mulke of to-day and yesterday is that he has onlv a million and a bait less to-day than the dy before. Slight dinereuce! But still he has one huu dre 1 and sixty thousand. The second the Craig-Sprague trial, in which the fair Amanda gets one hundred thousand in currency, to heal her lacerated affections, lh trial took place at Wheaton. Th papers here suzgest to, the youthfu Snraeue to offer his hand again to Amanda, as she is worth considerabl more now than when he bowed suitor at her knee the fir3t time Then there wa- the McConnell-Rob inson case, at Jacksonville, resulting in Robinson 3 acouittal. Lastly, is the VVhitehouse-Cheney me. wherein it is said that tho llev Mr. Cheney, tho very popular preacher of Grace Lptscopal Church, is said t ba deposed from the order of th ('lergy, by his : superior, IBishop Whitehouse, because, having consci entious scruples on the subject, n will not. nf thfi word regenerate in adm'tnisterinc the sacrament of baptism. 1 here is to be a great .LowLnurc (Episcopal) Convention in the city next week. and. ou tne tapis now, a great Anti-Secret-Society Con vcntion. A good deal ol mind-wort here. lours, M The Boston Peace Jubilee. During the present week tho news papers of the country will bo largely devoted to accounts of the grea Peace Jubilee which will be held Boston, commencing to-day. W presume it will be the largest de monstration of the kind ever witness ed in this or any other country, and that Boston will bo more crowded than ever before in its past history We copy a description of the Colis cum which has been erected for th series of concerts: THE COLISEUM, which is now nearly completed (on 1'. T T t s ot. James j'aricj is as wonderlul in its way as Solomon's Temple and the Pyramids were in theirs. The Temple required more than twenty years for Us construction. 1 he coliseum rises from foundation' to roof in about two months. If the genius of music had ever wanted to organize such a colossal undertaking as this now in procress in Boston, in such a limited time, he would have had to wait for about ths age of the world, though whether he would have been obliged to select the location in our country wo are unable to say. This mammoth structure, which has so quickly risen for the use of the Peace Jubilee, is becoming more and more an object of interest and curiosity to both citizens and strangers. Hundreds are daily visiting the park to scan the wonder which, since the erection of the roof, has assumed its proper shape. Although something like a marvel has been performed, in the way of rapid construction, yet nothing has been sacrific3d which can in any way contribute to the stability and strength of the edifice, and to the consequent safety to those who may be assembled within its walls. While there are few Bostonians who have not seen this monster building during some state of its construction, it may be interesting to Borne of your readers, who do or do not design visiting the festival, to know something of the details of its dimensions, as taken from tho books of the contractors. . The structure is 500 feet in length and JtMJ Jeet in width, and runs nearly uortli and south. The whole build ing is of wood. The upright walls are thirty-six tcet in height, and the apex ot" the -roof is 100 feet from the ground, or sixty-four feet higher than the side walls. A lean-to roof, extending in from the sides, seventy-five feet high, is joined to a truss roof, which spans the intermediate space of 150 feet. The lean-to roof covers the gallery at the sides and in part, of course, at the ends. Ihe construe tion ot the root, with its supports, is of such a nature that if the galleries and the roof above them were to be taken away, the central or trussed sec tiou would stand firm as before, and vice versa, xue ouisiue sections, in tact, wero put up first, the trussed roof haying been raised afterward. a ue inclination oi tne lean-to root is '-. inches to the foot. At its point of junction with the trussed roof is a clear story formnd of mnvnhl rlQaa windows, five feet high, intended for the admission of air as well as ot iigut. Above this the trussed roof rises of in clination of five and one-half J to the foot nearly to the top, where it meets a monitor ventilator, which runs the whole length ot the buihHnotwenty feet wide and six feet high', the inclination of its roof beinsr th Fame as that of the roof below, viz: 5 inches to the toot. Ihe sides of this ventilator are filled in with slats of wood. The trussed roof is quite novelty, and from its peculiar con strnction great strength and. stability is obtained. The span of 150 feet is overcome by a combination of three trusses, lorming one .grand truss Tiiero are nineteen of these trusses each of which is upheld bv four mas sivo posts, or pillars of Southern pine, 12 inches by I t in dimensions, their entire length. They rise to a height of 51 feet above the sills. The trusses are confined to tho pouts by massive iron bolts, and natural hack matack knees. In each truss aro six lj inch iron bolts, eight feet long, and about

sixty-six bolts of inch iron, from 13 inches to 2 feet long.

r our ot these bolts are in each ot the knees. Longitudinally, there is also a continuous line of truss work on either side of the central trussed portion, tying the whole together. Over the intermediate posts truss work also extends, parallel with the jngitudioal trusses already desenoea, the entire length of the building. T4ie ean to roofs are supported by posts plaeed at intervals of e7ery twentynve feet longitudinally, and eighteen feet transversely, and in the walls there are twenty-one main supports upon each side, and twelve at each end. The posts suooortinz the lean-to roof are bolstered. The posts at the sides are framed and secured to raft ers in the lean-to roof by means of knees and bolts, and to the large posts supporting the center or truss root, these "ratter3 are supported in like manner by knees and bolts. By this means a system ot continuous ties is made from wall to wall. The raising of the "mammoth trasses, was a work of no little macnitude--sTwo were raised each dayexceptpoa one day, when three were put in place, xwen-ty-fiva men, two horses and six capstans were required to raise each one. The L accommodation are aiviuea into a parquette aadiodr galleries, or balconies, the balconies extending all around four sides of the building, The parquette occupies oaly tne space between the galleries, and there are to be no sea ts under the balconies. The north or front balcony is 125 feet deep, and nrns down, to the floor 6f the'parqtiette, at an inclination of five inches in every twenty-nine inches. The side balconies are seventh-five feet deep, and have the same inclination, their fronts being ten feet from the parquette floor, ..The. south balcony is 200 feet deep. The space .devoted to the orchestra is- 100 feet, and nine inches above the parquette floor, its inclination being one-half an inch to the foot. ... -... " From three sides of the orchestra the chorus seats rise at the same in clination as those in the other bal conies, or five inches in every twentynine inches. Three stairways, twelve feet wide, lead up to the orchestra and the chorus balconies. -, Something over two-fifths of tho "whole building will be devoted to the chorus and orchestra, the chorus seats extending on the side : balconies beyond the line of the orchestra. Along the sides of the parouette. which is 150 ieet in lencth. and under the balconies to depth of 3G feet, are lobbies or stand ing places. The floor in the rear part of the lobbies will be thirteen inches higher than it is at the front. In rear of the seats in the balconies is a promedade eleven feet wide, ex tending around the insiaa ot the whole building. 1.600 feet, or ninetythree yards and one foot in excess of a quarter oi a mile. Midway between the front and rear of the side balconies, and extending through the north balconyaud chorus seats also, is another promenade, or perhaps, more properly speaking, an aisle, six feet wide. Stairways, three on each side, will enter this aisle from the corridors below. There will be no stairways leading down the front of the balconies into tho pardtiette. but communication between the two carts of the house will be am pie by means of the stairways above referred to, and others leading up from each ot tho entrances. There are twelve arched doorways, twenty-four teet in width, thiee on each side, and three" in all desired directions. Under the north, or front, balcony is a passaga way leading to the parauette. twenty-four feet wide and twelve icet high, and communicat ng with all three entrances at that end. The parquette is divided nto six lettered sections. In the balconies are ' twelve lettered sections, aud eighteen numbered sections, beginning at the southeast erly corner ot the auditorium and run nmg around consecutively in rear or the lettered sections. Ihe chorus balconies are divided into twenty-six sections. Ihe building, as has been often stated, will contain between forty and fifty thousand persons. Ihe lighting and ventilating ar rangements are ample. In the ground story are fifty-six double or 112 sin gle windows, with twenty-four lights each ot nine by twelve glass. - Above these, and opening on the balcony promenade are sixty-eight double or 136 siDgle windows of the tame dimensions. In the gable ends are sixteen additional double, or thir ty-two single windows of the same size. This enumeration alone gives an aggregate of 0,720 lights of nine by twelve glass. - . . In the lean-to root are twenty sky lights, each, six ieet by twelve. In the clear story rising from the lean-to roof, as elsewhere described, is a con tinuous line of glass five. ieet high, There are to be 144 sashes of thirty. two lights each, on each- side, an ag gregate of 9,220 lights of ten by four teeu glass, xne root, which com prises, m area ot 3170,500 square feet is covered witn tarred leiting and cement. Thirty tons of felt and twenty tons ot cement hava been used The amount oi materials consumed in the construction of the coliseum is positively enormous. The actual amount is upward of 2.000.000 feet No less than 4 tons of iron bolts, If tons of wrought iron ship spikes, and n i A 1 i-tirk . e -i Kegs, or tons oi nans or vari ous sizes, are also used. About 240 carpenters are employed about the buildinz and also a gang or laborers Gas has also been introduced into the coliseum, an eight inch main having Deen laiu, entering tne ouuding trom the fro nit. There has been put into the building itself 25,000 feet of pipe (upward of four miles). There are 2,400 burners, and about 14,000 cubic teet ot gas will be consumed each hour The amount consumed in a single evening will exceed the amount burn ed " by moderately sized cities in whole night. There are forty clusters of two stars each, and abovo the balconies there are 240 burners. There are also about GOO lights under the galleries, and one star. In all cases tho stars have six burners each. By the above arrange ment there are four different rows of gas clusters over the parquette, or be tween the side balconies, the clusters being twenty-five feet apart longitu dinally: each cluster of burners is in effect a chandelier ten feet in circum ference. - : - In accordance with the request of the Board of Aldermen, GeneralJ.U a ester makes the following statemen relative to the strength and safety of the coliseum, alter thoroughly exam ining the structure: " There is no doubt that the roof trusses are sufficiently strong, as they are stronger than those used ior similar purpose before. " The result of the calculations for the lloors and galleries, is, that as gumtng two hundred pounds as the weight to fee borne on the area allowed for each seat, eighteen by tweotv-nine inches, all the timbers are sufficiently strong to bear witn saiety twice the weight that will thus be placed upon it" THE ORCHESTRA will bo of a very high order, and will

include, in fact, all the best musicians of the whole country. Boston will furnish about 300, New York about 400, Philadelphia from 75 to 100, Baltimore 30, Troy 25, Chicago 15, Montreal and Quebec 15, Hartford 10, New Haven 6, St. Louis G, Albany 5,. and Cincinnati 12. There is to be a select orchestra for the performance

of symphonies and other selections of a classical character consisting of at least 500 of the very best musicians, the proportion of the different instruments being something like the followingthe figures, however, are not by any means exact: First Violins 120, Second Violins 120. Violas 70, Cellos 70, Double Bassi 70, Flutes 10, Oboes 10, Clarionets 10, Bassoons 10, Horns lb, trumpets IU, 1 rombones 12, Tubas 5, Tympani 5. OFFICIAL.
