DAILY JOURNAL.

A. II. SANDERS, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. CITY OF EV ANSVILLE : SATURDAY MOIlSIJiG, JITE 20. j. -it; Iteadiog Roam, - By -reference to a notice in another column, it will be seen that subscription papers will weit Monday "be in the hands of several citizens, for the establishment of a Reading Room in this city. During last winter we were often urged by some of our citizens to undertake the enterprise of establishing a Reading Room. We promised to lend what aid we could, and supply it w'th paper and periodicals, and even take charge of it, if the proper subscriptions were got np to pay expenses. These expenses were light, fuel, Tent, a boy, &c. We had not the leisure or sufficient acquaintance with the citizens, to act otherwise in the enterprise individually. Nothing was done, but now after conversation with several citizens who feel the same warm interest as before in the enterprise, we have concluded, with the help of such assistance as may be volunteercd,to start a Reading Room. Now, then, we wisli to see how far this Bpirit really exists, of which we have heard so much. We shall do our part, and without the expectation of realizing a cent profit.'We have an excellent room, better adapted to the purpose than probably any other in Evansvüle. But action, not words, is now wanted. General Dullness. The political world seems for the time be ingdead or sleeping. The questions arising from the discussion of the Compromise Bill iu Congress,and which are distinct from party politics, have cngulphed all party differences. What the chances arc for a speedy adjustment of the California question, we -cannot, tell, for everything seems discord and confu eion connected with it. The last dispatches received, epcak of the continuance -of the debate; and the strifeappears daily to be growing warmer nd more exciting. We may expect to hear, however, of somo action soon, ' although what that action will be, is beyond the speculation of man. But speaking ol the dullness of things, our exchanges at this time are duller than we ever knew them before. Editors are getting ". wearied of discussing the Slavery question and kindred themes the people have no de sire to read essays on Banks, Tariffs, ecc. anA there is nothing of local or home excitement. So that the be-deviled Editors have a hard time ol it, especially as the weather is Tiot enough to melt their sweetest ideas. This quietness is so opposed to American spirit, it cannot remain long. War, lamiite or pestilence, may soon be expected, for certainly some terrible storm will follow this calm. Under the Administration of President Taylor, our nation is at peace, our peole prosperous, and Printers well patronized. City Jealousy. The petty jealousy of each other's city exhibited by our cotemporaries of Cincinnati and Louisville, is anything buf honorable or dignified. Both are stars in the Western firmamentgreat and beautiful cities, and rapidly increasing in extent and influence. It should be a source of mutual congratulation . instead of small jealousy, that though separated but a short distance, they are growing with a rapidity rarely equalled in ti e history " of cities. Yet some of the editors appear to think they are watchmen upon the towers and walls of tneir cities, to sound the alarm to the people; whenever an aggression should be threatened by some act of improvement in the camp of the enemy. II the wishes of these editors could come to pass, Louisville and Cincinnati w-ould stand still in aiLtime to . -come. But as yet we do not see that the hostile wishes of one city have at all inter lerea witn tne prosperity ot the other. Let them act with dignity, and this dignity will be their best policy. Let them recognize the great virtues of each city, and emu ulate that which they have not yet rivaled Madison anil E-ransvillc. The Evansville Journal of the "12th inst., says that Madison is a more beautiful place than Evansville; but, aside from its heavypork operations in winter, its business is not comparable with that of Evansville. Right, "Mr. Sanders. Aside from the heavy business transactions, our beautiful city is comparable with Evansville and Shawneetown; hut it is the heavy operations that designate the city, and make up the difference between cities and towns. But the Evansville editor says again that Indianapolis compares with Evansville in point of business and progress, something like Madison comparing Evansville, with its one-story houses and nine thousand inhabitants, with the three-story houses and fifteen thousand inhabitants of Madison ! The attentions shown our friend during his visit to the settlement around the Burnet .House has turned his head. Madison Pourier. The Editor of the Courier did not write the above with the fairness and candor, which marked our article. We gave Madison full credit for everythingshe possesses. lie gives Evansville credit, for nothing. He should ; knov,that in all " henvy business operations," . with the exception of Pork, Madison is behind Evansville. Our shipping bu sincss last vviu- , ter was greater than that of Louisville. We . have acknowledged Madison a prettier place . than this, and if the Editor of the Courier . exhibit a like candor, he will acknowledge just as much for the business of Evansville as we do for the beauty of Madison. With - our "one story houses and nine thousand inJiabitants,". we can set an example in the way of doing an extensive business, which some .places tof, fllhree-story houses and fifteen thousand inhabitants," might in vain attempt , . to imitate. '

H3"The t:Evansville Journal" announces the "editor of the Cincinnati Commercial" at Niagara Falls, "luxuriating," &c, and ends his narnomnh with "who cares'?" We

can assure the diminutive editor of the Jour nal that we never sought the public notoriety of an announcement of our whereabouts, as hp. has flnnp. We would thank editors to niifF thnsp. KPpU-ino- nutfs. onlv. Ihe least they "care" for usthe better. Cin. Com 'Our diminutive minded friend, Curtiss, should not feel his dignity hurt because our Junior so forgot himself as to inquire "who cares 1 " when the great Curtiss went abroad. Our Commercial friend has an advantage over us he has secured " public notoriety" without seeking for it, while we have failed in winning anything worse than a good name, after our best endeavors. That he has not secured the notoriely of announcements when traveling, as we, who are so much his junior, always do, is not his fault, lor we are sure that the rarity alone of such notices, aside from anything else, would render them hig valuable to him. Oregon. The Oregon was here yester day morning from New Orleans, bringing up dates of the 22d hist. She always makes ex cellent, if not unprecedented time. Capt. Ned Montgomery knows just how to bF;ng out the virtues of a steamboat, and it happens that the splendid Oregon possesses an unusual allotment of very large ones. Mr. Brown, the first clerk, as usual, favored us with a large package of papers. Camdria. .The regular days when this Louisville, Evansville and St. Louis packet, passes this place, may be seen by reference to her advertisement. She was here yesterday morning from St. Louis. The Cambria Jis a very swift boat, and makes excellent time between Louisville and St. Louis always. Capt. Lud'ow, and Mr. Kendrick, first clerk, are well known by the travelling public. iJT We arc hnppy to announce that the lime shed on the wlia which has been so long obstructing our view of the ferry bell, hns at Ia: been knocked into -pi and removed. This speaks well fur the enterprise of Evansville. fCJ3 Strangers complain of the quantities of rubbish oflering obstructions in almost every street of Evansville. That is just the way with this place. The march ofimprovement leaves very heavy foot prints, and the precession of improvement appears to be pe culiarly largo this season. C?The Ball vhich was to have been held at the Exchange, on Fourth of July evening, has been indefinitely postponed, on account, we presume, of the anticipated "in clemency of the weather. " fCJThc Grand Jury at N. Orleans, found true bills of indictment ajrainst sixteen indi viduals, for their participation directly or in directly with .the Cuba invasion. Among these were Gov. Quitman of Mississippi, a number of loungers and an cx-editoror two. tEJ'We thank the clerks of Hie Martha Washington, for Louisville papers of Thursday, left us early yesterday. She had a large barge in tow, with considerable freight also, a Hat, filled with large boilers. ICMr. D. G. Rumsey, agent for Western Transportatin Co., in Cincinnati, has called upon us, and says he can bring freight via. Lake Erie, and Mad River and Linie Miami Railroad, to Cincinnati, quicker and cheaper than any other route fror. New York, and we believe him. Tiie Board of Health at Cincinnati have reported that the Cholera prevails to some extent in that city, and advise their fellow-citizens to use every precaution in regard to cleanliness and diet, unnecessary exposure and excitement. Q.CF.ER Boats. A Western editir. discribinga steamboat explosion, says . The boats generally stop long enough to take a stoll through this delightful -City of EludV Queer boats, these; they must be ofthat class that ''ran wherever the ground's a little damp." lEJOn Wednesday evening there were 5 feet 4 inches water in the Canal at Louisville1. The river had receded one inch in the last 21 hours. At this poiut,it is low and still receding. !r3"Baniard, whose arrest at St. Louis for counterfeiting, we have noticed, has been examined, and not being able to furnish bail to the amount of $10.000, now lies iu prison. U3"The Kentucky River is low and with no prospect of a rise. The packets find much difficulty iu navigating it. tZT On Thursday morning at Nashville the Cumberland river was slowly falling, with 23 inches water on the shoals. The Cleveland Plain Dealer states that Capt. Roby, who, with his family, lost his life by the burning of the Griffith, had his life insured a short time previous, for $6,000. 0CjThrough the attention of the officers of the Bunker Hill No. 3, we have received a package of N. Orleans papers of the 21st. This splendid steamer was here early yesterday morning. fEMademoiselles Augusta Victoria and Appolinü, who gave a Concert here a couple months back, are drawing crowded houses in Cincinnati,

For the Journal. Mr. Editor : In your able and highly popular Journal, the attention of the public is often attracted by your lucid and appropriate views, setting forth the great advantages to be derived Irom Plank roads, Railroads,

Canals. &c, &c. These improvements, no doubt, would add much to our commercial and agricultural prosperity, but while they are advocated, there is another matter, of a local character, and in my opinion, ol more importance to our well being, shamefully neglected by our citizens, and to which I beg leave, thro' you, to call their attention, viz : education, or the improvement of the mind; and upon which depends the great desideratum with : all true patriots the maintenance of republican principles, and the perpetuity of our glorious Union ! Now. sir, the city of Evans ville can boast of men possessing public spir-J it, perseverance and energy, equal to any j other place of its size in the West but the dizement. or an accumulation of the filthy lucre, while the mind, "the dome of thought," the " palace of the soul " is sadly neglected, to the great injury of those, who, by the course of nature, must be called upon (however able) to fill our places .t no distant day. Why have we no establishments here, where, at least, the youth of our city can obtain an education, suited to their wants and inclinations? Are we not as willing to encourage, and as able to support a Male and Female Academy as" our sister cities, New Albany or Indianapolis ? I l.ope and think we are; and all tlmt is wanting, is to have such an Institution established in our midst as our necessities require, in my opinion, to let our wants be made known, and if the proper material is not here at present, I venture to assert, that iu a very short time, by offering proper inducements, persons from a distance every way qualified, will present themselves as candidates for our patronage. Let the at tention ot the city fathers be directed from the Day-Book and Ledger, to the paramount necessity of their aid in the furtherance of this great object, the education of youth, so earnestly desired by all who espouse the cause of true Democracy and equal rights. J. The following lines have been handed us by a friend fur publication. They should be improved, il they were not published on other considerations than that of their own worth. They were written after the death of a beautiful and interesting young lady, by one whom she had only known as a friend : I had a friend, and friends arc but too few And such a iriend ! This world were I.Lca.v'n itself, Were we all such; so true and free from change. They said I lov'd her ; and indeed 1 did. No sister could be more belov'd than she ; Just in the bloom of life, with health's rich glow O'crspreading her fair check. Sant down to earth To liglu my path, and all whom shemiyht meet; Lent but a little while to cheer our way, She hardly seein'd as mortal ; yet I've watched How soon fatigue hah wearied her; the hectic flush Began to speak the victim of thj ills Which wait on all below ; yet nunc could think That she, so lovely, would so soon be gone. They tell me she is dead what means the word? She hath departed from my sighf indeed ; Am I the worsel Full many a hill and dale Divided us, ere she was called away; We could but know each other's heart and ours. No more on eanh my eye shall e'er behold Her cheerful smile, nor list the living words Painting her heart. S:ern is the fate of man ; Had she yet lingered, few had seen the hours, I couli have passed with her; and yet, fond heart Still say'st thou she is gone and left thee here1? That I may weep, when I so oft recall Her form, her features, smile, and well-known voice, The music of her own most tuneful soul, S.ill eelioing ever in my lonely hear'. Ah, iio indeed; more mine than e'er before ! Free from th-i burden ol mortality, Thou canst be near me now. Now can our souls Mingle in purest intercourse of Heaven ; Then, oh sweet spirit, tor thou hear't my pray'r, Be thou my guardian angel, ever near To shield from harm, to guide my path aright. Oft, when my life was weary, hath thy smile And kind word raised the load, again lit tip My firmament with bright affection's beams; Smile on me now, that when my toil is hard, When pressing on to run the weary race For happinessoft sought, so rarely fjuml, My soul may thrust aside ihe selfish v or!.!, And trrn.to meet thy spirit, hov'iing near; There breathe to thee my pining "and my joys Once wert thou mortal, thou can'st understand And feel for those who'yet arc bound to earth; Thou art immortal now nor '.oil, nor grief Shall e'er invade ihy calm and peaceful breast, Pine as ihy Maker form'd thee; yet the heart Still ihine, which I so dearly lov'd on eanh. Watch, thou angelio spirit, o'er me now, Until jiv race be run. And when 'tis o'er, When calm and conscious of a well-spent life. I peacefully resign my soul to Him Whose gift il was; oh be thy spirit near, To welcome me to regions of the blest, And herald me to joys unutterable. ' W. C. L.

ADDITIONAL SEWSBV THE SIAGAKA.' ENGLAND. The Debates in Parliament present no new feature, beyond the fact, the Ministry has again been defeated by a majority of 32. The new bill to limit the sale of unencumbered estates, in Ireland, has been read twice in House of Lords; its object is to exempt from sale all estates not mortgaged to a certain amount, and fixing a minimum. FRANCE. The Assembly have voted for continuing ar.other year, the bill suppressing clubs and political bodies ; the hill letraliziti": transportation for political offences, has been passed entire, as tlic Government presented it, ex cept, the clause which gave a retrospective etleet to the same. The bill granting pensions to the families of those killed and wounded in the affairs of February and June, was rejected, by a great majority the, reactionists have thus gained a signal triumph. The bill granting pensions to the deserving of the working classes, when infirmity overtakes them, was passed. The committee appoin ted to consider the proposed great increase of the salary ofihe President, have not recommended an acquiescence in said demand; it is said, however, that the leaders of the majority intend voting for the bill. Another project for fettering the press with stamp daties, is at present engaging ine attention oi the Government. Thiers has left Paris to visit LouisFhillippe in England. The ex-minister arrived on Thursday, and was well received by the diplomatists and s'.atcs;;:c:: hi St. James. It is said his visit has a deep political charge in view. lie had an interview with the Presi dent before he left Paris. The union of the two houses of Bourbon is said to be the ob ject of M. Thier's visit to the ex-King. At London, it is stated on v rei.ch authority that the Russian Government has addressed a political note to the English cabinet, repudiating the notion, that the British subjects living iu Tuscany or Naples during the late revolt, have any just claim for indemnity for losses they sustained during the disturbances there. The Russian .Minister observes, that the St. Petersburg cabinet completely identifies itself with the principles which have served as the bisisofthe conduct of the cabinet of Vienna. ROME. ine ratest accounts state, tne i'ope is wholly absorbed ia religious ceremonies, to the exclusion of all attention to his temporal government. The people are said to evince a very uneasy feeling, und nothing but the presence of foreign troops restrains them from a popular uemoii.iti-aiiou against tue. govern meat. DUCHIES. Several proposals of the Schleswig deputies as the basis of negotiation have been published, but are considered wholly inadmissible. Baron Briendorf h id returned to Berlin, from Warsaw, and the Emperor of Russia is said to have fully appro ed of all that has been done by Deumaik, and has united with that Cabinet in the sentiment, that if, force, alone is to solve the question its adjustment must not he protracted. The Holsteins have fired on a Danish man of war cruising off the port of Heileg Haven. The head quarters of the Uarusli troops is in Jutland, and Holding, the Swedish General has received orders to have his troops in readiness to march, and preparations for hostilities are continued upon a great scale in Prussia still. Several laws have been issued against the press. The King seems to be fast recovering lrom his would. CONGRESSIONAL. "Washington. June 26. SENATE. Mr. Foote. introduced a resolution calling on the President for all orders, correspondence, &c, relative or iu connection with the appointment of Col. Monroe, Civil and Military Governor ol New Mexico, and the procla mation issued by him for this organization of a btate Covermnen. Ihe rcsolutun lies over. The omnibus bill drove up at 1 P. M., when Mr. Douglass replied to that portion of Mr. Saul's recent speech relating to the public landsof California. Mr. Webster next took the floor, when the further consideration!' the bill was postponed. Mr. Clay moved that the order fixing the hour of the Senate's meeting at 11 A. M.. he removed. In remarking upon the delay at tending the action upon the bill then pending, ho referred to the fact that the French Chamber in ten days,j?acted upon and passed a bill atfecting the great interest of franchise, while the Senate had sat two months on one bill, with no prospect of a conclusion. Mr. Hale thought th-; French Chamber would have done well to have spent even three times the labor on the subject referred to than had brer, spent by the Senate on the question pending hi re before they decided to pass that infamous measure, taking from onehalf of the people of France, the elective franchise, lie contended also that none of the delay complained of would have occurred, except for the extraordinary tfTorts made to coerce Senators to the suppo.-t of objectionable measures in combining them with others not objectionable. Afterareph by Mr. Clay and some further debate, the motion was agreed to and the Senate after executive session adjourned. house. Mr. Stanton, of Pa., asked leave to introduce a resolution calling on the President, if 1 racu'cahle with the public interests, to communicate to the House all orders issued by any of the Departments of this Government to any military or other in New Mexico, and the dispruchts received therefrom; also to communicate any information which may have been received relative to a call of a convention of the people of New Mexico, for the purpose of training a Stale consiitution ; and that he inform the House whether, if' such a call has been made, the same has been done by advisement or approval of the Executive, ami uy v.uom or wiwi uuinority SUCH pro- . . -Z L . - ...I 1 a .

CaptAbbott, arrived at .Mobile Point on Wednes day morning last, June 19, three and a half clays lrom V era Ortiz. The Thames brought 2.678 50 in specie for Mobile, and had on board for England $309.093, and -100 bales cochineal and jalap. Passengers, 21. The Mobile papers contain the following intelligence from Mexico : The Cholera Vvas still prevailing in the city of Mexico, and . extending to the South. About 13j died each day. Many were said to perish from neglect and want of the common necessaries ol life. Several noble acts of charit)-are heralded in the journals. A number ol dislingushcd ladies lormed a company and sought out the abodes of misery and suffering, and rendered the kindest aid. Subscriptions of money were made m the towns for the relief of the poor. Don Mari ano Ortero, a most distinguished and learned lawyer and statesman, had fallen a victim to the cholera. The Literary Academy of San Juan de Lrtrimi had appointed Senor iJon Guillermo Prieto to pronounce an eulogy upon his character and services. The disease only attacks those who live a roving life, or those steeped in misery. In most cases a prompt recourse to remedies .nsures recovery. Various acts of charity are mentioned in the Universal. Don Ignacio Algara has written, had printed and distributed among the poor, directions for preserving health and for curing the cholera. Chevaliers d1 Industrie are very busy and active in obtaining donations for the poor, which they carefully deposit in their own pockets. Will the cholera pass these villains by? The case of a poor Mexican woman is related in one of the latest journals. It seems she was attacked with cholera and supposed to he dead. 1 he carriers ot the dead bore her to her lust abode and interred her. In the great press of husines they did not bury her very deeply. She came to herself and was strong enough to scratch away the earth and leave her shallow grave. Sue sought i he abode of a charitable person, who kindly gave her lodgings. This should be a warning in those who urge speedy interments. Particular attention is culled to the gold and silver mines of Sonora. They are repre sented as remarkably rich and arc. very little frequented. I1 rom these mines in past cen turies immense amounts ot treasure were drawn, and it is urged upon the Mexicans to lonn companies and work them auin. The Arco Iris of June 8th, 1S5Ü, contains an article upon the coming ejection for Pres ident, urging upon the people the elevation of Luis de la Rosa to the Presidency. It states that he is the only man who can meet the crisis. The attempt and failure of Gen. Lopez has awakened great surprise. Above all, the small number of invasionists, and the immense daring of the enterprise in attaching the brave soldiers of Spain. There seems to be a calm in the political world of Mexico, and much attention is mani'ested towards scientific and geological pursuits, and efforts to improve the scluioLs of education. The Conducta from Guannjuato had arrived in Mexico with $1.000,000. The small pox had appeared in the State of Tamaulipasr. A party ol Indians were encamped between Camargo and Guerrero, committing depredations upon the inhabitants. The Government of Taraaulipas had ordered them to be take-). The gold and silver mJncs ol Sonora are much ppnken of. One of the journal recommends that parties should he formed in the lillbrcrrt eities to proceed there, belWe the hordes of strangers shail possess themselves of these rich placers, before the thirst for gold shall entice the "Anglo Yankees-" from, their California. A severe earthqrjuke was felt in New Lean on the last of April. The city of Carmen, in Lagunn, has experienced another fi ightful fire. Forty-seven of the best housesare in ashes. This calamity occurred on the 5th ofihe present month. The inhabitants wei'e in the greatest alarm, as they had been warned there would be ano:her attempt to burn the rest of the town they were each hour expecting the appearance of the cholera. It was urged upon the Supreme Government that they should afford aid to these wo stricken people. A sovereign cure for the cholera has been discovered in Mexico. It ilhe itais del India, (the Indian root.) The Monitor advises the Government to lose no time in collecting large quantities of this root and giving it gratis to Ihe poor. The Palanca says: We know from a person of truth, that the most marvellous cures have been effected by this root. As an act of charity, we call upon Senora Hoppe, who administered herself this specific to numerous persons in her husband's establishment, to come forward and testify to the truth of our statement.
