CITY OF EYANSVILLE: T UESDA Y MORNING JUNE ß. Tai-VKsfcLy Mail to Salem iLLiuoia-rWe leajn that there are exertioos making by the citizens of G rajs rille, Albion and Fairfield 1)1., to procure a triweekly mail from this city running through N;w Harmony ppd those towns to Salem, III.,; and in order to second the exertions of our neighbors pf South Eastern Illinois, petitions hare been drawn up and are in circulation in this city and at New Harmopy. Every business man in this community ia aware that the sustaining trade of Evansville is drawn from South Eastern Illinois, that a large scope of country embracing some nine Of tep counties, relies solely upon this place for a market, or would do so if there were any means of communication with us. At present we hate a weekly mail to New Harmony ,but i . a . a . peyona mat we are not aware mat mere is any certain means for transmitting leUeps, &c. With a tri-weekly mail in two horse coaches, running to Salem, which is a distributing office, a great amount of benefit would at once be conferred upon the people alon the whole route, and the trade of that section would flow in upon Evsnsville four fold. t is time for pur citizens to make some exertion to secure this trade before it is snatched from them by some more enterprising community. We have not time this morning fo say more about Lhja matter but jre shall apeak of it again; and we .. . .. .l hope every business man in this community ..... .. I

Fourth or July Celebration at New Har most. -The Order ol the Sons of Temperance at New Harmony are to have a grand celebra tion, precession and oration, on the 4th of Julv next, and hare invited the neighboring Dinsions to meet with them on that occasion. We learn that the two divisions in our city are making arrangements at this early day, and that from one to two hundred will go from here. In fact there is a rivalry existing which of our Divisions shall send the largest delegation; and if the weather be favorable our Harmony friends may look out for a large caravan from this quarter. The Princeton, Mt. Vernon, Newburg, Henderson, and perhaps .other divisions will no doubt attend, and w look forward to a grand cold water display pi) our national anniversary. The Sons of New Har mony deserve to be kindly remembered by their brethren elsewhere, and we know that a hearty welcome and a pleasant time awaits those who may go.

'.: - : Coxtisestal AcQCistTto$.-4-Tbe Cincinnati Gazette correctly says that the. annexation of Texas was a Southern project, to increase and strengthen the political supremacy of the South, and to extend the area of Slavery. In this project, Northern Locofocoism united in sufficient number to rffVct its execution, and thereby inflicted the people wjth evils and burdens, political and national, the ruinousextent where? of cannot be predicted, as they are daily transpiring end increasing in magnitude. Süll the clamor for "more territory" was successfully raised by political demagogues, and Jas. K. Polk nominated and elected upon the issue. This result caused the Locofoco Presidential aspirants to favor territorial acquisitions, as the means of acquiring popularity. First we had the cry of "the whole of Oregon" next "the conquest and annexation of the whole of Mexico" and now we havenpt only Continental acquisitions, but "the islands adjacent," also. General Cass, the Locofoco Presidential nominee, was for the whole of Oregon, snd expressed a desire to"s allow the whole of Mexico, but his next friend, in the Baltimore Convenuon.iur.oenatoriiannegau.isreporieuiuuaTc Af4 TT alaU ! spoken as fallows: .

Italt and Austria. The eternal city is in a high insurrection. Rome may be considered in a stste of seige. Pius I A, wfiose name was so lately the symbol of Italian emancipation, apd who was personally the idol Cf the people, and now pronounced &"rcactionnairc, is left nothing but the name of the sovereignty of Rome, and scarcely even that. What appears certain is, that when the declaration of the Pope against proclaiming war against Austria, and disapproving of the passage of the Po by the pontificial troops becam known, the population of the holy city rose as one man the national guard took possession of all the gates; sentinels were placed at the doors of the residences of all the Cardinals, w ho were detained prisoners; a committee, of which the celebrated Cicero Yicchio was President, took possession of the post office, where all the correspondence was seized, the letters addressed to th Cardinals were opened and read. A letter from Rome, dated the 1st ult., says the moment the declaration of the Pope, above mentioned, became public, deputations from the municipal tty, the clubs and the civic guard, proceeded to the palace, where they remained fnr m-r1r frtnr hnnra in ronference with his Holiness. It was during this conference that J W W VBW ' the cat es of the city were seized.

The mortality among tb.3 troops in Mexico has been immense, No man can look upon a regiment of soldiers enlisted to do serrice ia Mexico without unpleasant emotion, as experience has proved that nearly one-half of all who leave home with high hopes of distinction and with sanguine expec'ations of returning to friends and familv, find graves in that inhospitable clime. Mexico ia the graveyard of American soldiers, and ret, with the full knowledge of this fact before them, Mr. Polk and his war-supporters in Congress feel no reluctance in insisting on sending thousands of their young countrymen there to perish. Bills for raising twenty thousand men for Mexico have been introduced into Congress during the present session in conformity with the recommendations of the Administration. If the war is continued and they are sent there to prosecute it, at least ten thousand of them will descend to untimely graves! But what care those heartless and selfish politicians for woe and affliction, for disease ami slaughter that do not visit their own households! Lou. Jour nal. The Two Third Rule. The Locofoco National Convention resolved that each State might cast its full vote, whether fully or partially represented, and General Commander, who represented a small village on the Pedee river in South Carolina, was allowed to cast nine votes for the whole State. The whole number of votes, in 'he Convention, by this organization, was 290 and it was decreed that t wo-third of the votes should be necessary to make a nomination. General Cass on the fourth ballot received 179 votes, which is fourteen less than two-thirds of the votes in the Convention. On the lest ballot only 253 votes were cast, being 37 less than a full vote, and Gen. Cass by gettingtwothirds of the rotes cast, instead of two-thirds of the votes in Convention, was declared nom inated. Thus a delegate chosen by. a small village was allowed to cast nine votes for South Carolina and by others not voting at all, a nomination was made and declared formal and reg ular, although the nominee did not receive two thirds of the votes in the Convention, and had the Barnburners been received, as they right fully should have been, then Gen. Cass could not have been nominated by any sort of juggling. The Southern politicians can adopt a twothirds rule to defeat a Northern free territory candidate, and they can use the same rule, with a different application, to nominate, a "Northern Doughfacer." The true meaning and interpretation of a tico-thirda vole is variable, according to "circurastances. cm. uazettc. Tux Fkeäch AasEMBLV The European correspondent ol the New York Courier and Enquuer, "Sigma," communicates the fol lowing: A new building h&a been constructed especially lor the accommodation ol the nine hundred members of the Assembly. It stands io the immense court of Ihe former Chamber of Deputies, and only occupied forty days in its en. ire completion. Iba lower part ol ii has been built very slioog to resist any popular attack that possibly may bo made upon it. The interior appearance of the Hall is exceedingly simple. At the extremity is the President's loslrum, on either aide of which ate the inscriptions! Republique Froin-ai" and "Liberte EgalUe, Fraterniie.n Emblematic figure of agriculture, coininetce, &c, adorn the walls, and ihe pilasters are decorated with the flig and 'arces of the Republic. The seats o the members are coveted with green baise, and are separated from each oilier by an oaken tail; the I wo lowest ranges are occupied by the Provisional Government and the Ministry. Near the oratorical tribune, which is directly in fronl ot lhe President's chnir, ate two large boxes, otie with DO seais, for ihr newspaper Reporters, the other with 42 lot ihe Editors in chtel. At the extremity opposite lhe President's chair is a lare iribuiifor the public, who enter without tickets.

At meridian the members assembled at the Hotel of ihe Mnnsier of Jjjs lice, the Place Veudoine. At ball past 'Z tbey marched in procession along ihe Boulevards, through lines of ihe Natioual Gu'aids and regular troops, to the hall of the Assemble. At 1 o'clock, ihe Representatives entered the hall and immediately called to order by Du pout (de PEure,)the President ot the Provisional Government, who, after a short congratulatory speech, called the eldest representative present to the chair as president pro tempore, aud the six youugesi .epiesentatives lo the secretary's table, as prov atonal clerks. The body thus organized, the Republic was at once forthwith proclaimed by acclimation; and a salute ol 'Z guns ironi the Champa Ely see, the strikng up ol lhe natioual ans by the military hands, and ibove all, the exultant c ries of the assembled muliiiude responded io the proclamation. The body then proceeded lo verily the elec nous ol its members, and for that p rpm I. vided itself into 18 buieaus, each consisting ol 50 representatives.

The testimony on the p tri of the prosecution closed last evening. In CliHiitauque, where tha defendant. u well known, an intense interest is felt in the result. From present indications, the . tial must result in a conviction. The Doctor was sentenced to the Penitentiary for seven years
