THE JOURNAL—THEN AND NOW. A little over one year has elapsed since we re-assumed the control of the Journal. At that time, and under the circumstances, we most confess, the enterprise appeared wither mystified—anything, but a desirable undertaking. As an editor, we had made no pretensions—had little, or no experience and, altogether, greatly felt our inability to discharge our duties as such, with any degree of credit to ourself, and profit to the party, for whose advancement we were to labor. 'Tis true, our experionco as a publisher, was of many years, and for the duties of which we felt ourself on this, occasion, abundantly able. In our former connection with the Journal, we had had no occasion or desire to assume the higher prerogative, as editor but preferred that department to rest where it was, in abler hands, in the person of Dr. T. W. Fry. The patronage to the Journal, too, in our absence—(nevertheless, our town and county were constantly on the increase in business)—had "grown small by degrees, and beautifully less which with our reluctance, in taking charge of Ibe office alone, made the experiment look exceedingly gloomy. The tightness of money matters, also, had a tendency to darken the future, and cause an attempt, of resuscitation to appear more hazardous, than it would, had the times been mote buoyant.
How well we have succeeded in the capacity of an editor, this deponent saith not but financially, we are compelled to say, that had our hopes been of the most sanguine character, we would be very ungrateful did we not acknowledge their beiag more than realized, during the past year. Many of our old and long tried friend*, bad become lukewarm in reference to the support of a home paper had gone wandering after strange gods but on our re-8Bsuming control of ibe Journal, commenced returning, and have continued so to do during the entire time. Every few days brings another of our returning prodigal friends. We trust they may still continua to come, till there is not one left without the fold, within the limits of the county. The farmers, mechanics, and business men, alike, have done nobly in tbo bestowal of patronage to the Journal, and in keeping our bark above the wavo. Our thanks are tl*rice due our friends generally, for the encouragement given us during our first year "alone in the wilderness," and hope we may be able, so long as wo are permitted to minister to them in this respect, to merit a continuance of the same yea, even an increase.
"THE ATLAS."—We have received the Prospectus of a new paper, to be started at Indianapolis, on the 1st of June next, tinder the above title by John D. Defrees, Esq. It is to be Republican in politics, and will be issued Daily, Tri-Weekly and Weekly.

SOMETHING NEW.—\\c publish in to.day's paper, a gift enterprise conducted upon a liberal and impartial plan, by B. E. Jloyt & Co., great Gift Book dealers, Baltimore, Md. We have had some little business! with these men, and feel no hesitancy iu saying, that as far as that is concerned, they have acted strictly honest in every sense of the word and we havn a doubt but that any of our citizens who may feel disposed t* p«tronize them, will find' it even so. Send for a catalogue, if you wish to irivest or a copy cap be seen by calling at this office.

LIQUOR LAW SUITS—AGAIN! The liquor law suits rrcntioned irV our last issno, and which .were to have been tried on Monday of this week, in the Court of Common Pieas, which is now in session in this place, are, we learn, to be tried in the same Court, at Lebanon, Boone county, at its next term which will be holden in the course of two or three weeks. We would bo pleased, were it in our power to do so, to give our readers the benefit of tho affidavit of these dealers in whisky— the complaiuauts— and particularly that of McCollotigli, to show the public what it was that caused him to call for, and desire a change of ventre. It was solely upon the ground, that he did not believe there were twelve honest men in the whole county of Montgomery—twelve men who would give him a fair and impartial trial. Is it possible, that McGollough, has resided, and sold liquor in this county, twen-ty-five or thirty years, or the greater part of that time, and }'et, cannot find twelve men to sit upon his case, that he would trust in doing him justice? Is he so lost and ruined, in his own estimation, that all of his old acquaintances appear so corrupt and dishonest, in his eyes? If so, we would advise him to withdraw his suit, without allowing it to go farther stay at home, and go about a reformation. The poet has said, and it may be true, that "While the lamp holds out to burn,
The vilest sinner may return." Do fhis, Tesolving, henceforth and forever, that you will live right following some honorable, laudable pursuit, and if not too far gone in sin and iniqnity—too deeply steeped and dyed in that damnable poison, whisky, ycu may yot be redeemed. It is barely possible, however, for a man, after 60 many years of rebellion against his Creator, and his fellow man, to ever become very pure nevertheless, we are constrained to believe, that he, and all like characters, might be greatly improved.— They should try it at all evfents, for as it is, they have nothing to lose, but all to gain-
Tho Grnuting of License under the New Law. We understand that our County Commissioners will grant no license at their next regular session in June, to any man who has been known heretofore to sell adulterated liquors, or to drunkards or minors. The law provides that the applicant shall show to tbe Board that "he is a man of good moral character and fit to be trusted with a licenj-e." This decision upon the part of the Commissioners is truly commendable, and will meet with a hearty approval from tbe entire community. Of course, no moral man would sell liquor by the dram, much less sell an adulterated and poisonous article, and that too to minors and drunkards. We have an abiding faith in our Commissioners. We believe they will do their duty like men, and grant a license to no man who is unable to show that he is 3n honest, industrious and upright citizen in community—that his associations are those of respectable men, not gamblers,
thiev9s,
vagabonds and pimps.
Tbe scale to weigh applicants to sell their fellow-men tho bitter waters of Lethe, should be impartially held. Let our Commissioners do their duty, and our word for it, every applicant will be found wanting. He will kick the beam.—Review. —You need have no fears, neighbor Review, of any one obtaining License under the new law, to sell liquors in Crawfordsville. The old emissaries of the devil are too well known by our Commissioners and no good citizen, God-fearing man, will ever make the attempt. There is no such thing at this age of our country, as a man of good moral character wantiug to sell poison to his neighbor. It is altogether out of the question. It cannot be.
SOAP.—The season for soap making has about.:arrived our & readers would do well to try that COKCEXTBATED LYE at Brown's Drug and Grocery Store. One box costing a quarter, will make eighteen gallons of soap. *y

Go and see him, when in want of such articles, and we will guaranty the articles purchased to be as represented, and at reasonable figures. New advertisement will appear in our next issue.

Petersons' Cheap Edition of Waverely Novels. We hav5 this day received Ron ROY, by Sir Waller Scott, being the third vloume ofT. B. Peterson & Brothers' new and cheap weekly issue of the Waverely Novels, by Sir Walter Scott. Giving truthful delineations of people, character and manners—ever upholding the cause of leligion, morality & virtue, they should be welcome at every fire side where these precepts are taught. The great barrier, heretofore, to the introduction of these works^ has been the high price at which they have been held, but this objection is being overcome, by the publication of those works of Scott in such a form and at such a low price as to bring them within the means of all persons whatever. To Messrs. T. B. Peterson & Brothers, of Philadelphia, more than all other publishers are we indebted for this new feature in American literature. The works of Chas. Dickens, Chas. Lever, Mrs. Southworth, and many other popular writers, have boed issued from their press in a cheap form, and their last enterprise is in giving to the public, the works of Sir Walter Scott, complete and unabridged, at the very low price of 25 cents for cach work, or the whole series for Five Dollars. The edition embraces the whole of the author's works, and will be contained in 26 volumes, one of which will be issued on each succeeding Saturday, until complete. A full set will be forwarded, free of •postage, by Mail, to any part of tbe United States, to any one, by the publishers, on sending a remittance of five dollars to them, for the twenty-six volumes. At this low price, all persons should possess themselves of a selt, and we would take this occsion to advise all of our readers to make a remittance of Five Dollars at once, per first mail, To T. B. Petersons «Ss Brothers, Philadelphia, for the entire sett, who will send them complete to any one, free of Postage, on receipt of that 6um.

A HORRIBLE CRIME.
Last Saturday, we learn from the Wabash Intelligencer, a man named William Joy was convicted of burning his own child to death, and sentenced to eighteen years confinement in the Penitentiary. The principal witness against him was his little daughter Nancy, whose story to the jury it thus given by the Intelligencer. Wc should premise that the offence was committed in the fall of 1857, but concealed by the family through fear of the father, till bis arrest for another offence, lately, gavo them an opportunity to tell it without fear:
Her little brother John, a child about 4 months old, was quite unwell, and had been so for some days, and was consequently fretful, and had cried considerably during the night and disturbed her father.— Early in the morning her father called to her and told her to get up and make a fire. She diil so—made the fire, principally of brush, because there was no other wood preparod. After the fire began to burn, the child continuing to cry and fret, her father became enraged, and snatched the ohild from its mother's arms, tore every particle of clothing off it, and then took it by one arm and one leg, and held it over the fire until it was burned in several places to a blister. He then struck the little sufferer two blows with his hand, leaving upon its body the marks of bis fingers, and then threw it into the cradle or bed. His wife and daughter struggled to get the child away from him, but were unable to do so, and when Mrs. Joy found that he was going to burn tho child to death, she ran out of the house to prevent seeing the sight, and to get out of hearing of the child's scroams. Joy then took down his gun and pointing it at her compelled her to come in. He then left the house and did not return, as we understand, for a day or two. Four days after this terrible scene the little suffering child died and was buried. None but Joy and his wife and two young daughters knew anything about the canse of its death. The neighboring women, who came in and assisted to lay out tho child, found it so mortified and decayed that they could not wash it, or even to take off the clothing upon it. Joy told his wife and daughters that if they ever said a word about it he wauld kill them, and shey believed him, and so kept tho horrible secret.
——>The follwing [sic] is a very good burles- que of some of the Pike's Peak stories:
Young gentleman afflicted with the Pike's Peak fever will be interested in the following statement, from a reliable gentleman in the new El Dorado, of the manner of getting gold in the diggings. A man takes a frame-work of heavy timber, built like a stone boat, the bottom of which is composed of heavy iron rasps. The frame work is hoistsd [sic] up to the top of Peak, arid a man gets on and slides down the side of the mountain. As he goes swiftly down, the rasps on the bottom of the frame work scrapes off the gold in immense shavings, which curl up on to the machine, and by the time the man gets to the bottom nearly a ton of gold is following him. This is the common manner of gathering it.
Information Wanted.
A man calling himself Peter Mack, evidently labouring under mental excitement, stopped at the house of Mr. Washburn, near Waynetown, Montgomery county, Ind., about the 26th of February last. He has been at the house of Mr. W. ever since, under the care of a physician—but neither his physician nor Mr. Washburn can get any information from him except that his name is Peter Mack—that he is from Henry county, Ind.—that he has a brother-in-law named Alexander Simmons, some place in Illinois.
He is a man about 24 or 25 years of age —sandy hair and whiskers, and weighs abont 140 lbs. He had on a good black over-coat, black wool hat and brown pants.
He is still sick at the house of Mr. Washburn—who is anxious to hear from his friends. Any information sent to this oflice will be promptly attended to.—<Covington Friend>. ~~~~~~~
EXECUTIONS™
BALTIMORE, April 8th.—At the hour fixed for tho execution of the four miserable criminals, GBmbrill, Cropps, Corrie and Cyphus, approached, an immense concourse of men, women and youth poured toward the jail by every avenue leading to it.
By ten o'clock not less than 30,000 persons had crowded to the hill that overlooked the jail, to the roofs of houses, and to every other point from which a view could be obtained. The gallows stands near the north wall of the jail, and is plainly visible from the high ground, and even from the streets in the vicinity. The cloudy weather and threaten!ag rain does not deter the eager multitude.
All the criminals exhibited remarkable composure and nerve. On the scaffold Cropps led in singing a hymn, in which all joined. When on the scffold Grambrill, in a clear and loud voice, avowed his innocence. Cropps merely said, in a strong voice, "good bye to all". Corrie said nothing whatever.
The drop fell at 7 minuts past 11 o'clock, and the four criminals paid the penalty of their crimes to the violated laws. There has been no disturbance whatever duiing the morning.
Cropps left the following brief note in the hands of the clergy, with a request that it should not be opened till after his death. It was written at 9 o'clock this morning. "It was me that shot Rigdon, but I have repented it."
Later From California.

A CARD.
Mit. EDITOR—SIR:—The kindness of my congregation in settling us comfortably in a new home, and (with numerous other friends) making us a donation visit, calls for an acknowledgment, which I can best make through the columns of your paper. Such a "house-warming" lias ono excellent effect—it produces a taarf-warming. It tends to wipe away all traces of past discontent.?, where any existed and to cement the relation between pastor and flock in the best of bonds and to establish a friendly and sympathetic feel ing, which affords tho best facility and security for a profitable ministry among a people. The influence of sucli acts is not loston either party. It partakes of the well known character given to "the quality of mercy" by one of the Poets "it is twice bless'd
It blesseth him that gives and him that takes." Speaking, however, for the one party which I represent, I recommend this as a good way of settling a pastor. The general ruje is: Show youi preachers real kindness and a just appreciation, and you bind them to you as "with hooks of steel." In such circumstances they will ordinarily say. "It is in our hearts to live and die with you. For what is our hope,, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?" It shall be my endeavor, by more earnest labors^ in the work of the ministry, to requite the kindness with which you are caring for us, with spiritual benefits, and to have
