DAILY JOURNAL; A. H. SANDERS. EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. CITY OF EVAKSVILLEi.y TUESDAY MOHNING, MAT 14. The Bitter End Opposition. One of the most prominent leaders of the "Democratic party, declared uron the advent to the Presidency of John Quincy Adams, that his Adminis'ration, though it was pure tu the Angds in Heaven, should be put down. By the vilesj course of slander p.huse, personal vituperalion,and the grossest charges, the oath was fulfilled the Administration was put down. The party machinery employed in this dirty work, was of the same nature as that now being used against the present Administration. That it was successful once, is no evidence that it will be successful again, or that its past success was founded upon justice. The Adams Administration is now admitted on all sides, und by nil parties, to have been quiet, peaceable and unri ht. in all its operation. In imitation o' 4 ' their warfare against it. Democracy has now arraigned itself against Gen. Taylor and his Cabinet, and declare 'n substance that though this Administration b pure as Angels in Heaven, they will put it down. If power and will were synoiiyrnjus. thev doubtless would put it down withrut any .delay but now they can only show tieir will, by oppo ''Wg to the " bitter end, " very act or policy Niatinü from this Administration.

The party endeavors to dictate to the people, and if the people are independen. enough to scorn this dictation, then the party forms itself into a Court, and passes judgment on the honesty and wisdom ol the people. Starting out upon whatever tack of love and devotion to the people Democracy may, this opposition to their will is what it resolves itself into at last. Now it has not yet proven that the people have done wrong in electing Taylor to the Presidency. It has asserted so often enough ; yet its assertions are grossly inconsistent. The President is charged by Northern Democrats with being in favor of one class of principles, and berated by Southern Democrats for opposing the same principles. At one time he is per mitted to have honesty without capacity, and at another time he is charged with exercising a diplomacy dishonest in its nature, yet which 'exhibited indubatible proofs of his ability. One d ly he is ridiculed for timid and dilatory action, and the next he is abused for assum ing prerogatives beyond his rightful claims, and exercising despotic powers. Act as he may in any question, there stand his enemies ready to viliify his course. Yea even though they had all their lives favored a certain course, yet let Gen. Taylor approve it by his action, and they will he convinced their whole lives were an error in this particular. If they had made it a principle of their creed to butter toast on the nrown side, it would only be recessary for the President to butter histoasr on the same side, to induce them to gainsay their old practice, and forthwith butter toast from that time out, on the white side. But we suppose as the fiicnds f the Administration are very Ihtle troubled by the titter end " opposition, that President Taylor and his Cabinet, who are on the most amicable terms, are just us little "putout" at the ultraisai of party enmity. Salt Well. A visit to the Salt Well will richly repay any one. The grounds are beautilul, and particularly at this time, when Spring is fairly ushered in, it really is refreshing to promenade tl.eir broad walks, and sit in the vine covered arbors and look upon the flowers especially in company with a pretty girl. We know the fact, for we have tried it. Or you may take4 a swing under the great trees, and in a very short time eat strawberries and ice cream in the shade, as they are now large as hazel nuts, and will be ripe in a week. On the occasion of a couple visits, we found young ladies rolling at " ten pins," one of the most healthv exercises they could engage in. Aside from the beauties of the place, there are abundant plans for amusement, even to taking a boat ride on the Creek which U now like a lake. There are also - bathing rooms attached to the house, where hot, shower, cold or silt baths, can be taken. The waer of the well possesses great medicinal properties. Make a visit there by all " means. JE3"A letter from Jamaica, states that on account of the fading fortunes of this misruled island, many of Us inhabitants are emigrating to the U. States.

Fire. Cave's house, on Water street, caught fire yesterday, for ihe second time during the past week. There was no serious damage done. If this house was not actualh set on fire purposely, the occurrence of the two fires in it within a single week, certainly argues a dangerous carelessness on the part

of its occupants. frfTc!i miles of the Evansville and Princeton Railroad are now put out to sub contractors, and the laborers set to work. It will soon all be in hands. Mr. Stewart, the contractor of the whole lin to Princeton, is inthAiMtv pvnrv week, and appears to be busily engaged in commencing the work. Knmckerbocker. The last number of this old, standard and spicy periodical is before us. and fully keeps up the reputation "old Knick " has won and worn many a year. The contents of this number are excellent. The Knickerbocker is always sensible, and yet always humorous. Its Tales, Reviews. Poetry and Gossip, never fail in pleasing. But the work is too well known to require commendation. Post & Co., of Cincinnati, are ngents. and will receive and forward subscriptions f.ir this or any other periodical without extra bärge. fl3"The promptness wih which the Fire companies were on the ground at the two late fires, and the enthusiasm they there exhibit ed, is an excellent guarantee that in the hour ofdanger, full confidence may be placed in them. The spirit of emulation among them, will render ihem zealous m everything tending to their own improvement as companies, and effectual in their labors. ICfThere isgreüt irregularity in the arri val of our Southern mails; and we are convinced that this irregularity will continue to exist so long as the price for the service of carrying it exists as it is now.

ItJ" A nicetinx was lately held at the Court house of Davidson county. Tcnn., to take into consideration the propriety of appointing delegates to the contemplated Nashville convention. Tiie assemblage is said to have been a large and intelligent one, composed of members of all political parties from town and country. A resolution that it was inexpedient to appoint delegates to the convention was adopted, when the meeting adjourned sine die. Rich affair lhat.

He had wiih him about $5000 worth of goo Is. the largest stock that ever went into Cairo at one time. He might find it to his advantage to stop occasionally at Evansville and make purchases, and he can purchase some portions of his goods cheaper here, and have any of his Cincinnati bi!ls duplicated. We have large stores, and heavier stocks of goods this season than ever were in Evansville before. 83 The Church of which Rev. Mr. Sanders is pastor, was crowded last Sunday morning, ana many had to go away, unable to procure seats. Mr E Igar. from Long Island. N. York, delivered the discourse. There was no meeting at the other Presbyterian and Episcopal churches. Father Mathew seems tobe needed at home.

The 'Squire wishing perhaps to moke an example of them to intimidate their colleagues, held each to bail fjr his appearance before the Circuit Court, in the enormous sum of $25. The Intelligencer "comes d jwn"ou the ' Squire and rightly, too.

The Louisville Courier publishes an article from the Boston Gazette, vindicating the character ol Mr. Lawrence in his conduct towards his wife in their late conjugal difficulty. The particulars of their paring are given thus: " As far us we are informed, Mrs. Lawrence left her IhisIvukI about eiht months si.n-e. under the xpress undeitanding ; that she would return lo Bo.-ton in a few weeks At ihe lime she was expected back. Air. Lawrence received a letter informing him that she should not return, and that he must go to Louisville to reside. Various reasons, which it is unnecessary to state, rendered this im possible; and he accordingly requested her return to Boston, in accordance with her promise at parting. By significant acts, and still more significant letters, it soon became mani fest that this was not. and never had been intended; and after invitations and entreaties were neglected and spurned. Mr. Lawrence had recourse to the only means in his power which was to announce his wife's deserfon to the public, and thus adopt the precaution which such a state of things rendered necceasary. Id5" We take the following interesting extract from a London paper of the 14th of April : Strike ov Agriculti-ral Laborers. Nearly ihe whole of the farm-laborer - in the parish of Cotgrave. seven mile from Nottingham, refuse to take the ' reduced wages offered by iluir masters, this making ihe eighth week of their strike. To support, themselves and families they depend on ihe benevolence of the p&bhc, taking different circuits in groups, asking alms. It is said they raise as much as keeps them and their children from starving. On the 9th Feb. the masters met. and then determine. I tn r. ilnc !

The Effect of Charcoal on Flowers.

The following extract cannot fail to be interesting to the botanist and the chemist, as well as to every lady who has a rose bush in her garden or a flower-pot in her parlor. It is from the Paris "Horticultural Review" of July last, translated by Judge Meigs, of New York for the Farmer's Club of the American Institute. The experiments descnoeu were made by Robert Berauds, who says: Ahnnt a vear n-o. I made a bargain for ä rose bush of maghifieent growth, and full of buds. I waited for them to blow, and expected roses worthy of such a noble plant, and of the praises bestowed upon it by the vender. At length, when it bloomed, all my hopes were blasted. The flowers were of a faded color, and I discove.-ed that I had only a rniddlin.r mu.tiflora. stalti enouirh I then.fre re solved lo sacrifice it to some xpeiiineut which I had in view. My atten ion had been captivated wiih the e fieri s ofchan-o il. asstated in some English puolicatioa. I tlien covered ihe earth in ihe pot, in which my ro-e buslt was. about hall au ich deep wi ll pulverized charcoal! Some days afier. I was asiomh. d lo see the mses, which b'oonied. of as Hue hv. Iv rose-color as I could wish! I detemin d to repeat the t xperitnei 1 ; ni:d therefore, when ihe rose bush had done flow ering. I took off all the charcoal anil put fresh earth abou the roots, lou may conceive that I waited for the next spring impatiently, to se ; the result of this experiment. When it bloomed, the roses were, as at first, pale and discolored ; but. by applying the charcoal as before, the roses soon resumed their rosy reo color. I tried the powdered charcoal like wise in Iarore Quantities upon my petunias. and found that both the white and the violet flowers were equally sensible to its action. -It always gave great vigor to the red or violet colors of the flower.-, and ihe white petunias became reined icith red or ciulet tints; the violets became covered v ith irregular spots of a bluish or almost black tint. Many persons, wno aiimireti mem, inuigni uiey were new varieties from the seed. Yellow flowers are (as 1 have proved) insensible to ihe influence of charcoal.
