Wc call the attention of our reader

to day to some advertisements furnished

by numerous C'liicago merchants. "We had the pleasure of visiting these establish

ments a short time since, and take great

pleasure in giving them that notice and

commendation which they 'so richly deserve. It has alwavs been a source of

remote and inaccessible ever to gain any

thing like great prominence in our commercial interests. Butwc were mistaken—Chi

ka demonstrations, has proved a fruitless and

miserable failure. Let notour representatives be deceived by the cries of the croco

jT5r The whig papers are publishing the speech of Hon. DANIEL MACE in opposition

to Nebraska. They are wonderfully pleased

with every democrat who opposes the bill,

and no doubt look forward to a rise in whig stock and a few accessions to their ranks.

RAPID GROWTH OF TI S WEST.—The Chi-

cago Tribune, speaking of the development of those elements of prosperity possessed by the "Great West," says:

The West is still in its infancy. It has not vet passed out of its teens Nineteen years ago, theie were less than five thousand white inhabitants in all the vast region of beautiful country lying between Lake Michigan and the Pacific Ocean! Now the number is between one and two millions!

Twelve years ago Chicago contained a population of 5,000. Now it has over GO,000!

Twelve vears ago, eight to twelve days passage between Chicago and New ork was considered quick time in the most favorable season. Now two days is the average and it is to be soon reduced to but three hours more than one day!

Fifteen years ago, the people of Chicago bought a large part of their bread stuffs and provisions from the State of New ork, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Now there is ex

Let us hope and pray that the Providence

which sends this scourge in our time may

so direct its end as to advance liberty, and

give security to human progress. The discussion on Lord Clanricarde's motion in the House of Lords, although instructive, has little to arrest our attention at the present juncture. The past conduct of Ministers possesses a minor interest when the future involves so much. It may be, that if they had shown more firmness at first they might have prevented a rupture of peace they might also have plunged us prematurely into war. The whole amounts to this, that if something else had been done, something different might have happened. It has been made clear to this country, however, that the Autocrat of all the Russias was a deceiver from beginning to end of the negotiations, and that he backed the grossest falsehoods with the most solemn assurances of truth. Earl Grey stood alone in contending that Turkey ought to have been left to her fate, and he told some unquestionable historic truths of the fanaticism of the Mussulmans, and the pursecutions Christians have endured at their hands.

England is not going to war to maintain the supremacy of Mussulman over Christian, or to keep the Sultan safe in Constantinople, but to resist the aggrandizement of Ru-si.n, by which all Europe is imperilled, and none amongst its states more than Eng1 ind, the last stronghold of freedom.

DAMAGE TO THE RAILROAD.—The recent rains and floods have done great damage to the New Albany and Salem Railroad, at various points along the line.

The bridge over Jack's Defeat, which gave way several days since, precipitating the locomotive Salem and tender, which were on at the time, into the stream below, will be temporarily trusselled so as to admit of the passage of the cars in a day or two. The locomotive and tenderhave both been taken from the crcek, but slightly damaged.

At the deep rock cut beyond Bloomington the banks have given way, and the track is covered to the depth of several feet with earth and heavy rock. Also at a deep cut this side of Ilarrodsburgh, the embankments have taken a 'slide,' covering the track to the distance of about thee hundred yards with earth and trees. At two other 'cuts' beyond and one this side of Bedford, the banks have likewise caved in on the track, rendering the passage of trains over the road impossible.

The company are busy repairing the damage, and have a large and efficient force at work at every point where their labors arc needed. It is probable that by the middle or the last of the week, the trains will ap-ain be enabled to pass over the entire length of the road to Gosport.

THE GARDINER FRAUD.—The Union

sta'.es that the President is determined to

prosecute every person connected with the

Gardiner fraud, and adds: The guilty who may be within reach of the law may rest assured that they will be dragged into the light of day. No position shalVshield them, no past services rescue them, and no corrupt influences can be invoked to shield them from the fate they have merited. When men coolly plot the dishonor of their country, they, in advance, part with all regard for her favor and all claims upon her mercy. They are, in their own minds, condemned, and the Executive onlv inflicts the sentence which they have pronounced upon themselves.

If there were no other issues before the people than the simple question ot Tern c' no ranee and prohibition, it mightbo deter-

resentative? but, until that time arrives, the question cannot be solved by the election where candidates are nominated by the respective political parties. Temperance is now a third question thrown in, and to some extent distracts both political parties. Occasionally a voter may be found, who is ready to sacrifice his old party predilections, and vote for a political opponent on the Temperance question but such instances arc rare. A Senator in Congress is to be elccted by the next General Assembly. Will an abolitionist or a whig vote for a democrat who will support a Nebraska democrat for that high office? Answer Mr. VaileandMr. Defrees. If the Nebraska bill passes, would you not rather have it repealed than the Maine law enacted? Candid answers will do much to test the honesty of your temperance views.— Suppose the democrats ot Marion county were to nominate candidates for Representatives pledged to a prohibitory law, who are in favor of the resolution of Hon. John Pettit, who has just voted for the Nebraska bill would you vote for such democrats?— Come gentlemen, face the music, and answer these questions your answer will determine whether abolition, jyvhiggery or Temperance predominates.

Democrats of Indiana, when you hear whig politicians talking about merging all political questions in the Temperance issue, a few such questions will test their sincerity. Don't fail to propound them. If whiggerv and abolitionism can throw in the temperance question as an auxiliary to aid them in selecting a whig legislature, they will achieve a triumph by the aid of temperance democrats, which tluir political principles can never command. The democratic State of Maine is now represented in the Senate of the United States, by William PittFessenden, a rabid whig abolitionist. His success is the first fruits of a Maine liquor law coalition. If the democrats of Indiana could be duped into voting for whigs on the temperance issue, a similar result would follow here and at the next election the Maine law might be repealed, if by any bargain another whig Senator could be elected.

All this difficulty might be obviated, and a fair expression of public sentiment obtained by adopting the plan heretofore recommended by us. Let democrats, whigs and abolitionists nominate their candidates for Senator and Representatives, pledged to obey instructions. At the bottom of each ticket let there be printed these words:

"FOR A rROIlTIlITORV I.AW." "AGAINST A PROHIBITORY LAW."

It the voter is for such a law, let him strike out the last line. If he is against it, let him erase the first. By tin's means, a fair expression of public opinion may be obtained. Every Senator or Representative elected undersuch circumstances would consider himself instructed and would vote accordingly. To this plan no olyection has been or can be urgrd. It whigs ob-

The U. S. Steamer Princeton has received sailing orders and is now lying off the battery with her supplies on board, readyto sail at a moments warning.

Her destination is supposed to be Cadiz to carry out trie result of the deliberation of the Black Warrior affair. A despatch from Washington in the Times states that

Mr. Delano arrived at Washington, from Havana with additional despatches in relation to the Black Warrior and the Cabinet is said to stand thus: Marcy.

The coroner's jury, in the case of the late Dr. Gardiner, have just brought in their verdict, that the deceased came to his death bv means of strichnine and bruehnine. administered by himself. The analysis of the. stomach shows a large quantity of strychnine, all of which facts place the cause of his death beyond a doubt.

The House, this morning, passed a resolution unanimously, requesting the President to communicate any information he may have received touching the seizure of the steamer Black Warrior-at Havana.

HOUSE.—Mr. Appleton asked leave to present the remonstrance of the New England clergymen against the Nebraska bill. A resolution introduced to remedy the confusion at present existing in the appointment of cadets caused by the new Con-: gressional districts of the several States,, was passed.

SENATE.—Mr. Everett presented thememorial of the New England clergymen against the Nebraska bill. "Mr. Douglas called for its reading. IIo said it was not. respectful to the Senate, and he desired to sav a word upon it. He then in very strong language condemned the statements of the memorialists, pronouncing them atrocious slanders.

Much exultation exists among a portion of our citizens caused by the decision of the Supreme Court against the constitutionality of a portion of the liquor law. A salute of .'Hio guns was fired on the Common.

THE NEBRASKA IJIf.L AK IT I »ASSE1 THE SENATE. Two amendments were made by the Senate to the Nebraska bill, which seem to us to place it in a shape that will be very difHcult for any friend of the principle of nonintervention bv Congress to oppose it.— The one is substantially the same as one proposed in the House of Representatives by Mr. English, mnking "the summit of Uockyr mountains the western boundary of the Territory of Kansas". The other v.*as proposed by Senator Badger, and is substantially the same as one proposed in the House by* Mr. Dean, declaring that the repeal of the Missouri Compromise act of"1820 shall not'^ be construed to revive the Louisiana law ofT 1003. We understand that these amendments have removed the obejclions of seveal: members to the bill, and that the strengthof the measure in the House is thereby materially increased. Pretended friends of the bill can no longer seek to defeat it by falselv representing it as having the legal effect of establishing slavery in Nebraska? Territory. Then can now
