ILY JOURNAL. A. H. SANDERS, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. j IT Y OF EVANSVILLB: itKSDAY IttOKTVINC, JUNE 27. ?Ia.tl Arrangements. , t call attention to the proceedings of a mpptiticr tipld on TllPBlIa laut in lMss Ö - ---j ... 'iative to improving the present mail 'gementa connecting with this city. & ng repeatedly called attention through olumns of the Journal, to the deficiencies . c mail arrangements of Evansville, and leglect this city has experienced from Administrations, and urged upon ourcits some strong action to remedy the evils, are now glad to witness the first public ement, as we hope its results may be I. The resolutions adopted at this meetare all good. The first alone might adof discussion. There is such a constant nf;e 5n the ownership of boats, and such sguiarity even in the arrivals and depart!8 at this point of the regular packets, that ; do not believe contracts by Government th these steamers would prove so benefiil aa an increase in price of carriage, bo at it would be a pecuniary object with saniers to carry the mail. The daily mails uggested in the other solutions, are actually necessary at this 4tne. The Department has lately eetablishy a daily route from Louisville to Columbus n the Mississippi, in Kentucky. This line as not one half so much needed, as a daily iver mail connecting us with Louisville The business importance of Evansville appears not to he realized at head quarters. It is treated as some petty village, whose demands are greater than its necessities, and its necessities too small for a daily mail. This has been the way at least, in which it seems to have been viewed by past Administrations, and now we want the matter presented properly before .this Department. The appointment of a Committee to confer with our excellent Mail Agent, Mr. Stickney, and obtain his views and assistance, may prove of much benefit. We believe Mr. S. realizes our necessities, anJ will use his influence in connection with the citizens of Evansville, to secure us daily mails. Mr, S.'s appointment as Mail Agent for this region, has been of great service to the De partment and people. He is an active, zeal ous and capable officer. masonic Celebration. The Faducah Lodge of Masons had a fine celebration at that place on Monday last There were a large number of brethren in attendance, and every thing, as we learn from a gentleman who was there, passed off as a celebration 6hould. The procession was large, and of imposing appearance. The ladies were present in crowds, from Kentucky and Illinois. The Oration was delivered by J. W. Jones, Esq., formerly of Evansville, and now of Paducah. It is epoken of aa a masterly effort. A magnificent dinner was prepared at Fisher's Hotel, of which great numbers partook. In the evening there was a splendid and well attended Ball, which was graced by numbers of Kentucky's fairest daughters. Perfumery, &c Dr. Hatchilt has just received within the last two days at his establishment on Water street, under life Journal office, a beautiful assortment of Perfume ry, Hail Oil, Fancy Soaps, and a host of other toilet articles, done up in the neatest styles. Let those interested in such articles call and examine this new arrival. We don't thank the Doctor much for that present of Soap, although the other articles were very acceptable. It was a kind of dirty insinuation, which would have been more applicable to himself and partner. There, take that! Jl3"The Republican says it has concluded to let our " insane ravings " pass unheeded, and that its patrons will not wonder at this when they are aware that men "stoop to conquer. " We suppose this is on the principle that e jackass stoops to crop a mouthful of thistles. JtfThe Fashion, on her last trip tip, ran aground at Battery Rock, but being flying light, and having powerful engines, she soon backed out of the difficulty, and arrived here early yesterday morning. We thank the officers for St. Louis papers of the 21th. Jt5"Mosquitoes begin to bite, so it is probable we shall have fine eport soon. Let people begin to get their tackle ready, especially those seines called mosquitoe bars. H3The late storm and hurricane on the Upper Mississippi, prostrated whole fields of wheat, out-houses, fences, trees, &c. Although much injury was done to property, it is believed no lives were lost. We had some respect for the Editor of the Journal till lately. Republican. That is more than we can say about the Editors of the Republican.

Public Meeting. At a large anl respectable meeting held at the Sherwood House, in the city of Evansville, on the 25th of June, 1850, for the pur

pose of suggesting a remedy for the present defects in the system of the mail arrangements connected with said city, Willard Carpenter, Esq, was called to the chair, and Alanson Warner was chosen Secretary; the following resolutions were presented by C. I. Battel!, Esq , and unanimously adopted: Resolved 1st. That the irregularity of the Mails on the Ohio river below Louisville, is a source of great inconvenience to those living on the banks of that stream and in the vicinity, and it is the opinion of this meeting, that this irregularity might be remedied if, instead of sending the mail, as is now done, by different boats under special contracts, as opportunity presents, contracts for carrying it for one or more year3 were made with the owners of hoats oi light draught. Resolved, 2d. That the present and in creasing trade on the Ohio river below Louisville, demands a Daily mail. Resolved, 3d. That the commercial impor tance of the cit' of Evansville. and its irili mate connection in business relations with a very extensive region of the country, requires mat there snould be established here an office for the distribution of mail matter. Resolved, 4th. That this meeting have seen with much satisfaction that since Lv man u. attcKney, iusq., ot lvew Harmony nas Deen appointed mail agent, the mail ser vice has been much better performed in this quarter. 1 he skill displayed by him in de tecting an extensive embezzlement of the mail in a neighboring State, and putting mat iers in a irain to nave me perpetrator brought to justice, entitle hiin to great praise. We recognize in him an active, faithful and dili gent othcer. Resolved, 5th. That a committee be appouueu io comer witn Mm at such time and place as may suit his convenience, on the matters contained in the three first resolutions; whereupon. C. I. Battell. John Slianklin and Craw!ord Bell were appointed said commit tee. Resolved, 7th. That the proceedings of this meeting be published in the papers of this city, and the Louisville Courier and Louisville Journal. The Arrest of a Counterfeiter. On Tuesday we noticed in the Journal the arrest at St. Louis on the Saturday previous of Barnard, of the well known publishing houses of Stratton & Barnard, Cincinnati and St. Louis, for having in his possession and passing a large amount of counterfeit money. From the St. Louis Times of last Monday, we gather the following additional items. It will be perceived that he had a number ol counterfeits on our Indiana Bank: Upon the person ol Barnard were found $20 counterfeit hills upon the Slate bank ot'imliaii, exceedingly well executed; $1U'so;i the Exchange bank, and $l's on Ohio. In the dosk, and within the money drawer, were' found $50'a on the State hank of North Carolina, snme signed and some blank; $10'son the Bank of Louisville; S2U's and $5's on the ötate bank ot Indiana, besides a package containing 114 counterfeit American dollars, and seven live franc pieces. The total amount of counterfeit money löund upon the person of Barnard, and about the premises, was $3 531 The greater portion ($2.770) was in $10V upon the Bank of Louisville, part of which were very well executed. Mr. Barnard h; s always occupied a lair position in society in this city, and there were but few, if any, ex cept, me ollicers belore mentioned, who sus pected him as one engaged in transactions of this kind. Mr. Stratton, of the firm of Stratton & Barnard, resides in Cincinnati, and has charge ol another bookstoie belonging to the firm. A telegraphic dispatch was forwarded io the. Marshal at Cincinnati, giving information of Barnard's arrest, and suggesting the expediency of searching the pruiifUcs of Mr. Stratton. It is thought by the officers in this place th.1t the parties are connected, and that a systematic ' business operation" has been carried on bv them for some time Of this, however, there is no certainty. Although the dispatch was sent Saturday morning, owing to the derangement of the wires, no answer has as yet been received. Immediately after his arrest, Mr. Barnard was released upon entering into bond in the sum of $2,000 to appear to answer before the Recorder, on Monday, (to-day) at two o'clock, p. m. Mr. D. II. Armstrong was security on .the bond. In the afternoon, it was feared that the amount of bail required was insufficient, and Mr. Barnard was ao-ain ar rested at the instance of Mr. Armstrong, who acted under the advice of his friends. Many facts in regard to the dealings of Mr. Barnard, have come to light since" his arrest, and the discovery of the counterfeit money. A number of persons have at various times received small sums of counterfeit paper and coin from him. Messrs. Clark & Bro's. have now in their possession two twenty dollar Indiana bills, in every respect similar to those found upon the person and in the possession of Barnard. These bills were taken bv them at their banking house, and so nearly did they resemble the genuine' notes that the fact ot meir being spurious was not discovered until a long time alter their receival. Without doubt, many more spurious notes of the same denomination are now in circulation. The most cautious are liable to be deceived so nnnnlit -n f T i I. . i ' iiuiijr jjcjicui is u-e counieneic.

Robert Henry Fauntleroy. As this lamented gentleman was well known to the citizens of Evansville, and had many

warm friends in this region of country, we transfer to our columns the following corres pondence. It will show how his talents and worth were regarded by those who officially acted with him, or whose positition gave them an opportunity of fully appreciating his manly virtues. He resided in New Harmony, Ind. correspondence, Camp Near Edisto Base, ) January H, 1850. $ Sir: It is my painful duty to announce to the Department the death of Assistant R. H. t acntlerov, ot the Coast burvey, which occurred in Galveston, Texas, on the 18ih ult., and has been officially communicated to me by suo-Assisstant b. A. Gilbert. Mr. 1 auntleroy was appointed an Assist ant in the Coast Survey in ISi'i and has served most zealously and successfully in Sec tions Vlll ana 12L ol the work. J lis attainments as a mathematician and astronomer, and in geodesy were of a high order. His patient and conscientious disposition made him most valuable as an observer. As a chief of a party he had the esteem of all his subordinates, and the warm atlection of those immediately in contact with him. As an Assistant he was invaluable. His labors on the coast of Alabama, Mississippi and Texas have been very arduous, but 1 had no idea of the extent to which his health appears to have been impaired by them, so as to give way to the first attack. He reached Galveston after a very stormy passage from New Orleans, on the 12ih of December, was attacked the same night with ChoIera;and died after an illness of thirteen hours. The loss of this able and cetinialde man will be deeply deplored by all the officers of the Coast Survey. His services will be most sensibly missed upon the work to which he had devoted his best energies and remarkable talents. Mr. Fauntleroy was under instructions to proceed with the tnangulation of the coast of Texas which .he had already commenced, and on learning his lamented decease I in structed, under authority of the General Directions for the year, Assistant II. D. Cutts, of the Coast Survey, to proceed as early as possible to Galveston and to organize a triangulation party for proceeding with the Survey there. Very Respectfully Tour's, (Signed.) A. D.

The undersignad, Officers of the Coast Survey, have learned with heartfelt regret of the decease of their associate, II II. Fauntleroy, Assistant in the Survey, while in tindischarge o.' his duty in Texas, on the 13th ult. They desire to express their sense of his great merits as a man of science, as a skillful observer, as an officer devoted zealously and successfully to the discharge of every duty in me worn, as one wnose loss to government and to the Survey cannot be replaced. They offer to his familv their sincere eomlnlpnc i.. this most afflicting bereavement, and ask that they, with the other associates of this excel lent l.u baud, father and brother, mav he nprmittcd to unite in erecting a monument, as a testimonial of their esteem and affection frr him while living, and of their sincere regret for him when dead.

Bclles, Esq., J ' Gentlemen : The high testimony you hear to the worth of one dearer to me than existence justifies my deep affliction at his loss. Though human estimation and sympathy cannot rjach my sorrow, yet I gratefuilv acknowledge them as in influences calculated to strengthen somewhat against the severe trials of a bereaved condition. I acquiesce in your desire and that of the other associates of my lamented husband to unite in erecting a monument as a token of esteem and affection. My inmost being attests the justice of such sentiments towards him ! and it is meet, for the fostering of excellence in the living, that we point to the virtues of the dead. I am, gentlemen, respectfully. (Signed) J AN ED. FAUNTLEROY. New Harmony, March 7th, 1850. At a meeting ol the Assistants in the Coast Survey employed in the Gulf of Mexico, the lollowing resolutions were adopted: Resolved, That we deeply deplore the loss of our late friend and associate, R. H. Fauntleroy, by whose sudden death, in the fulness of manhood and activity, his country has been deprived of an able and energetic servant, and science of an ardent votary and profound thinker. We, who have known him intimately, lament the loss of the truest and kindest heart, of his calm judgment and ever-ready sympathy; we mouru for the man, the scholar, and the friend. Resolved, That a badge of black crape be worn by us for thirty days, as a token of our regard for the memory of the departed. Resolved, That copies of the resolutions be transmitted to the Superintendent of the

Coast Survey, and to the afSicted family of our lamented friend. (Signed) F. H. GERDES, J. E. HILGARD. Key West, Fla.. January IS, 1850. To the Assistants in the Coast Survey Employed in the Gulf of .Veuico: Gentlemen; I thank you with the earnestness of agonized feeling for your - expression of respect and attachment for my late beloved husband. His high qualities, developing most in the most intimate association I know must have endeared him to you far beyond an ordinary friend, and left behind a memory which cannot fade. For me, though it entails a sorrow which passes understanding, to have stood in the most sacred relation of life with an individual combining in his character sucu rare moral perfection and noble capability, is a reflection

ADDITIONAL BV THE STEAMSHIP C AMBEI A . ENGLAND. The protectionists have been holding meetings at Liverpool, which were attended by the bulk of the country party, and is said it was the greatest political display that has ever been witnessed in England for some time. From a report recently presented to Parliament, it appears that the largest importalion, this year, of wheat and flour into Great Britain has been from France. The quantity from the United States is comparatively small. In Ireland the agitation of tenant rights of fixity of tenure to the agricultural population is fast gaining ground ; the ministers ofevery cri-i-u, miu puiuiciaus oi every trade, are said to be united to forward the movement. One hundred Hungarian refugees have been landed at Southampton from Alalia, and among them is reported to be the Count and Countess Denbinski. PRUSSIA. The King is rapidly recovering. The contest of the Germans, lor free trade and unity, proceeds wit h but little prospect of a speedy or successive issue. In the Liverpool papers it is stated that the Pacific encountered heavy winds on her trip, and that she has proved herself in every respect a very superior vessel. The passengers spoke of her in the highest terms. She was to have sailed last Monday for New York; and it is hoped, her news will be received Thursday. The Bishop of London has made a motion for a new court of appeals, in cases of disputed doctrine ; this is deemed a very important movement to the Episcopal Church. FRANCE. The electora Haw was passed 31st May by 433 to 211 and the President promulgated the bill as the law of France on Monday. Preparations by the Government, in anticipation of a revolt, are superfluous, as the opposition seemed to be disposed to let the whole affair pass over quietly, with contemptuously, and ironically congratulating the Government in their triumph ns being utterly ineffectual ; on the other side, the Journals are urging the President to proceed with viiror to the work of coercion. A committee of the Assembly have under consideration a proposition for removal of the seat of Government from Paris. M. Thiers is said to be laboring to effect a reconciliation between the elder and younger branches of the Bourbon family : every inemher or the family of Louis Phillippe, except the Duchess of Orleans, are said to be desirous of such a condition of things. It is expected that M. Theirs possesses sufficient influence with the Duchess toovercome her scruples, and he is reported about to visit England Ibr the purpose. In the negotiations of the Greek affair, it is understood to be agreed upon by both parties that the English Cabinet, at the express demand of France, and to prove the value which it attaches to a continuance of cordial relations between the two countries, giving full liberty to Greece, to claim the applied tion of such clauses' of the Convention of London, as shall appear to her most f ivorable, than the corresp uidim; ones of the Treaty of April 27th. J A native of the United States, Henry Waiden, who was accused, some time since, of high treason, for participating in the insurrection at Baden, but released in regard of his Government, was arrested a few days ago at Stensbourg, where he gained his living iifgiving lessons, and it was ordered that he be conducted in custody to Havre, thence to be sett to the United States.

From the June number of the Lady' Book. Anything Over To-Day. BY T. S. ARTHUR. Jenkins was an honest, simple-minded man,

little up to the way3 of the world. Being without capital, and having a salary, as clerk in a mercantile house, only sufficient for the support of himself and those dependent on him. no thoujrht ot coinir into business en tered his mind. A clerk he was, and a clerk he expectel to remain. One after another of Ins lellow-quill-dnvers had broken throngh their cerements, and arisen into the station and dignity of merchants ; but he was still at the desk, and anticipated no such change lor himself. One day. a young man named Tompkins, who had started out in life two or three years before, said to him "Jenkins, my old friend, why don't you go into business 1 You are wasting the best years of your existence." Jenkins shrugged his shoulders, and halt sighed the word 'Capital." ;You don't need any capi tal,"replied Tompkins. Jenkins elevated his eyebrows with a look of wonder. "Credit is capital," said Tompkins. ,;Oh ! But where's the credit to come from?" "There are plenty of men who will sell you goods. I've never found any difficulty. I started without a hundred dollars, and am now doing business to the amount of fifty thousand dollars a year." "So much ?" "Yes, every dollar of it ; and, if my good luck goes on, I'll do seventy thousand dollars worth next year." "And your only capital was your credit?" "I had'nt a dollar in hard cash." "Possible ?" "It's truth." "You bought on four and six months ?" "Yes." "But a stock of goods can't be turned in six months. That's admitted on all hands." "A good deal can be turned, if a man pushes his business." "Suppcse sixteen thousand out of twenty are turned and thats a liberal calculation how are the four thonsaud to be made up?" k "You must borrow." "Borrow?" "Yes." I-It's easy enough who's to lend ?" to say :borrow ; but You are short to-day, Everybody lends. and your neighbor is over he lends you. To-morrow, he is short and you are over; you lend him. Hundreds of thousands of dollars circulate in this way." "But suppose my neighbor isn't over, when I happen to be short ?" said Jenkins. "Go to another neighbor. Somebody will be over. I have never found any difficulty." "All that's too temporary, and a little too risky 'for me. Tie borrowed amount must go on increasing, until the sum becomes unmanageable." "By that time." replied Tompkins, "your eredi will be so established that you tan get an accommodation in bank. Money, in business, you know, is always worth'its interest." "Yes. I am aware ofthit." "Borrowed capital is, therefore, just as good ns il were j our own, for all business purposes.1' Jenkins assented to this, although he did'nt exactly feel that it was true. 'Can this be readily done?" he inquired. "Certainly," was the confident answer. "I can do it." "1 am afraid I could'nt," said Jenkins. "Why not ?" "Oh, I don't know, but . that's my inpression." "Nonsense; you can do it as well as any one else. You're too timid. Nothing venture, nothing gain. Here you are ; wearing out your life on a salary of a thousand dollars, when you might just as well be making two or three thousand. Use your abilities for your own benefit, not for the good of others, to be turned out to die, like an old horse, when you get old." A few interviews like this with Tompkins, who manifested a warm interest for his old friend, finally overcome all objections in the mind of Jenkins ; and he became possessed ofgo-into-business-and-get-rich-spiriis. Credit was capital. That was an admitted axiom. And, with capital, any fool could make money. That was its twin brother. Jenkins found less difficulty in obtainins goods on a six months credit, than he had anticipated He had a quiet, thoughtful air about him; and ni3 old employers ave lum credit far being a man of the roost honest purposes, and a yuuu ivuuwiuiign oi ousmess. During the first six months, Jenkins was able to discount many of his own notes. inis mane his credit A No. I with a good many of the wholesale men frojaa whom he boughA, and they congratulated, fcitu, that he was getting on so well ; but. at the expira tion ot six months, when about six. or seven thousand dollars fell due in the course ofn couple of week,. Jenkins foarul his vessel passing from a smooth sea into troubled waters. 'Anything over to-day, Jenkins?" or. 'Will you have anything over to-morrow?" had been sounded in his ears half a dozen times daily for the hvt three or four months. Hb had made teraporary loansof small sums again and again to his neighbors. Tompkins had been a libera) borrower. He was. on the 6treet daily. It was now. Jenkin's turn to ask a reciprocation of favors, which had, tliusiar, been all on one side. For the first notes which fell duo, to the amount ot two thousand five hundred dollars. Jenkins was prepared ; but one morning he found himself with a thousand dollars to pay, and nothing in bank. The young merchant felt sober. This large amount must bo borrowed out could he borrow it? That was the doubtful question. Moreover, he felt a natural repugnance to asking favors of the kind, and Iiis heart sank in him at the very thought of doing so ; but in no other way I could tne money be raised, temporary loans must be had until the regular sales brought all right agnin. Business was very good, and profits fair. The prospect ahead was encouraging. The present difficulty sui mounted, and all would be smooth sailing again. Naturally enough, Jenkin's first visit was to his friend. "Anything over to-day, Tompkins?" he asked, confidently for here he fully counted on important aid. The smile on the face of his friend instantly faded. "Not a cent. Jenkins, I'm sorry tQ say," was the reply. I'm short two thousand myself, and fully counted on you lor five hundred." "I must raise a thousand to-dav." said Jen kins, in a husky voice, and with every sign of uisappoinimeni vismie. "i luiiy counted op
