CITY OP EVANBVILLE: TUESDAY ITIOUNING, DEC. 10. . , To Correspondent. "Jcpiter." Won't do. Your communication border on the personal, and you do not given us the name. You c:in't fling your bolts, Jupiter, through the Journal. J. YV. K. Cincinnati Letter and money received. Thank you for good wishes, and fof the free good will of your öfters. M. B. II. Cairo Your Father Matthew letter dated, Nov. 4, has just been received, end of course is too stale for publication. Sorry that so much good moral matter should be thus lost to our readers. Father Matthew had a great field for his operations at Cairo. Our correspondent rather intimates he signed the p!edgc, and from his after correspondence wc are inclined to believe he did. 'I:.cog." Another anonymous communication. WoiCt our talking do any good ? This is rhyme undoubtedly it is rhyme but after a careless measurement with a tape line, we find entirely too great difference in "IncoV lines. Don't think Incojj will ever obtain fame in the dark, so he had better come to light, and seek for it in that manner. Ladled Fair. Great preparations are being made for the Fair to be given by the ladies and Juveniles of the Episcopal Church next Thursday and Friday. The Fair will be held in the store rooms on Main street just above Front Mrs. Lewis' new buildings. As this, will be the first Fair of winter in Evansville, and the attractions are to be of a superior, and in part novel nature, we hope the attendance will be large. Heretofore, we have urged the young men to be on hands, with " pockets full of rocks," and still wc hope to meet many of them now at this Fair but now in behalf of the dear Ladies, we appeal to the more elderly gentlemen. Come now, old gents, you have been crawfishing out of these delightful entertainments long enough. Wc, the young men, are not so selfish as to wish to have all the fun. You have got the dimes, and haviu families are actually much more interested than those who have none, and who are laboring under great doubts of ever being possessed ol such a blessing. If Fairs arc an evil, they are an evil upheld by the ladies, and must be endured j so come up with cheerful faces, and eupport with your presence and money the will of the dear creatures. Doa'i lay all these things upon the shoulders of those who can ill-afford the expense, but attend yourselves, and let the money come from the right source. Mr. Foster will exhibit the Drummond Light, and many beautiful scientific experiments at the Fair. "We ngree with the president in a great many of his recommendations, ami hope they may be carried ont ; but we specially protest ugarnsi ins ingu mrm uocirmu unu internal improvement system, as odious and diameferi rally opposed to the best interests of our coun try. Princeton Clarion. It must prove a ecurcc of great congratu lation to the President and of universal joy among the people, that Kurtz of the Prince ton Clarion, agrees with President Fillmore in a great many of his recommendations. 1 1 it a pretty fair guarantee that they will be carried out. But we are deeply grieved tha Mr. Kurtz, should feel himself necessitated to enter hi protest against any recommendation of the President, as every good man must regret that the immense influence of the editor ol the Clarion should thus far be exerted vgafnst this admin.stration. Especially do we feel grieved, as before this announcement the people of the West had strong hopes of some appropriations Irom the present session of Congress in favor of internal improvements this side ot the mountuins,nnd particularly the improving of our rivers, and thus promoting of tbe Commerce of the West. Cut now, wc shall have to give up all such ideas, as Kurtz has entered his protest, which will no doubt have a tremendous influence on the legislation of the county. Kurtz should be more thoughtful. 23"TI:c Washington Republic gives from the Evansville Journal editorially an ftbstrac of the proceedings, of the late Convention names of officers, speakers, dec. May we not expect from the pen of its able editor, Hon. John O. Sargeant, an expression of his opinion on the important objects of the convention protection of Western Interests, improvement of our rivers and harbors, &c.,by national appropriations, &c? Wc should like to see the Republic present the matter before the eyes of Congressmen at Washington. Wc know he favors these thinjs so vastly important to the West, anJJas they are thus important to us, and the Republic has a multitude of Western readers, there are many who would be pleased to sec an editorial from him on the subject. Hf" The Editor of the Princeton Clarion says the President's message is"very lengi hy The young roan is making some remarkable discoveries about that message, which we hope he will continue to publish for the benefit of his readers and the rising generation. We haa thought the message very short, and for that reason with many others, decidedly preferable to the long-winded messages ofhia last Democratic predcce?sor. 3T The Princeton Clarion of Saturday quotes Pork at $3 75a$3 SO per 100 lbs net. sudvavs there ha been largo sales at

Infernal Improvement. .. From an able article in the Louisville Journal commenting on the President1 message, we make the following extract, and ask our

readers to peruse it' Prentice undoubtedly takes the right view of the question, aud one which the Louisville Democrat, while it ridi culos dare not attempt to answer. In ridicu ling those views, it is making fun of many ofi its own party leaders, whose Democracy that paper would be the last to gainsay : That portion ol the message which refers to internal improvements will he read throughout the Western and Northwestern States with great pleasure. It announces sound Whig doctrine, although not exclusively Whig, as many of the opponents of the Whigs arc zealous in favor of the prosecution of works of internal improvement by the general covernment. Mr. Fillmore's argument on the constitutionality and expediency of appropriations of the public money for the improvement of the navigation of tho lakes and rivers is unanswerable. The power of Congress to erect lighthouses and to improve harbors on the Atlantic coast is very general ity conceded. No good reason has ever yet i t iliueen nuvanreu wny men worKs mouu oe carried on the seaboard and denied to the peopl who reside on the borders of the lakes and rivers. The products of the West and Southwest, although originally shipped on steamboat, are to a considerable extent designed to enter info the commerce of the ocean. "We cannot 6ec why, if thß government has the power to protect the cotton raised in Tennessee against the perils of navigation after it has reached New Orleans, it has not the power to protect that cotton after it is shipped at Memphis cn its wny to Liverpool, although it must be transhipped at New Orleans. The government it is admitted can protect Tennessee cotton after it is placed on bhipboard, but cannot protect it so long as it is board of a steamboat above New Orleans ! That such logic is utterly absurd rrnui be pparent to all men of common sense. The Constitution was framed to promote the general welfare, and confers on Congress certian powers, that the general welfare may be advanced. It was the work of great and sagacious patriots, who meant what they said, and never designed to imply that, while CouI . iL I W. I... gress couiu promote uiu jjeucrui wKinrc building a lighthouse on Uape Jlcniopcn, it could not promote the general welfare by removing an obstruction Irom the reu ol the Mississippi which endangers commerce of greater value than nil thai Uape lieniopcn ever caw. ni - ft J. I 1 ne v.on3i.iui.ion n .ikcs no auburn msm.ditfercut sections. It framcrs meant that all its Huns utiwrt- i mo wem. v. I ."' powers should bo exercised for the general rood of the whole and not for the good of oaly one portion of the people. They never nulhonzed the strange doctrine which teaches that, while the productions of Western agriculture shall be protected against the per ils of navigation whenever they are placed on shipboard for a foreign or a domestic market, they shall have no protection aiiurded them against euch perils before they are placed on sea vessels, ftuch ridiculous distinctions were first discovered and insisted m by men of heated partisanship anxious to antagonize a popular doctrine proclaimed by their political antagonists. These remarkably shrewd metaphysical political philosophers were the first to discover that, while Congress has the power to protect a barrel of Ohio flour or a bale of Kentucky hemp or: its way from New Orleans to Roston. that body has no power to protect it while on iU way from the Ohio river to New Orleans. We earnestly hope that Congress will at a very early day in the present session appropriate a sum of money in accordance with the recommendation of the President on this subject. The agitation which prevailed during the last session swallowed up all minor considerations. Now, however, sine that agitation has been settled, it is the duty of Cotiirress to turn its attention exclusively to such Fubiects as the will of tho people is in favor ol. The members signalized tnemseies oy passing a scries of measures winch have restored tranquillity everywhere but in the fermenting brains ol a few traitors and fanatics. Let them make the last session of this Con gress memorable by carrying out in good faith the President's recommendations in favor ol internal improvements, the amending of the t trill, and thu reduction ot the rated ol post n;e. A vatt majority of the people desire just such legislation n Mr. Fillmore recom mends, and we earnestly hope that Congress may have, the wisdom and patriotism required at this juncture. pThe Cambria was down yesterday crowded with passengers. By special invitation we had the pleasure of taking the hjad of the table, and dealing out turkey to the ladies. Rut wc have yet something more to say about this boat, which we leave for another occasion. The Cambria runs in the Louisville and St. Louis trade, and is a swift and good bout. Capt. Ludlow, conunaudcr, and Capt. Kcndrick, clerk, ere utterly . unexcelled in their own ways. They know how to make every passenger comfortably. ICr'The water was up to the truck railroad track, yesterday, opposite O'Riley & Mitchell's wharf-boat. We expect soon to record a local item or two manufactured by those sand cars now burried beneath the waters. 3'By advertisement it will be seen that Mr. J. Iluncie haa left the District School, and opened a private school, j As he will only take twenty scholars, it may be found highly advantageous for parents to place their children under his charge, especially us he is a good teacher. 3 We have had several days and rights of very cold weather. Ground frozen hard, and ice on the extremely rough roads bearing horses. Yesterday was milder, and bright. fjQ" From thirty-five to forty deaths occurred ou the steamer Amazonia, supposed to be from cholera, on her last trip from New Orleans to SL Louis. trThe individual who picked up the ten guilder gold piece we dropped last Sunday, can just hand it right over. We only laid it down to try 'era. so it nced'nt be considered a joke nny longer.

The Compromise Pleasures. From the President' message, we extract that portion relatire to his views on the Com. promise measures. His determination to carry out the laws ol the land at all hazards, was sufficiently expressed in his Collin letter, which related to the Fugitive Slave Law

alone, and things connected with it.. From his message we have already given his lan guage stating las determination to sued by the laws. We now cive his remarks rela tive to the Compromise measures generally: It was hardly to have been expected that the series of measures passed at your lut session, with the view of healing the sectional differences which had sprung from the slavery and terrftorial questions, should at once have realized their be nificent purpose. Al: mutual concession in tha natuie of a compromise, must necessarily be unwelcome to men of extreme opinions. Without such concessions our constitution should not have been formed, aud cannot be permanently sustained ; ytt we have ttcn them made the subject ot bit ler controversy of the republic. It required many months of discusoion and deliberation, to tecure the concurrence ot a majority of Congress i l their favor. It would be strange il they had been reciivcd with immediate approbation by the people und Slates, prejudiced aud healed by tiie txciiiug controversies of their representatives. 1 believe they were necessary to allay asperitus und aiiimcsities that were rapidly alienating one section of the country from another, und de stroying those Irateinul sentiments which are the strongest supports of the constitution They were adopted in the spirit of conciliation an J for the purpose of ouiili-ttiou. I believe that a great majority of our fel-lo;v-citizens sympathize in tint spirit, and that purpose, in the main approve, and are prepared iu ull respec s to sust.tiu their enactments. I caiuiol doubt that the American people, bound together by kindred blood and common traditions, still cherish a paramount regard fir the Union of their fathers; and that they are ready to rebuke any attempt to violate its integrity, to disturb its Comoro raises on which it is based, or to res. si tiie laws which have been enacted under its authority. The scries of measures to which I have alluded, are regarded by me as u settlement in principal and substance u final settlement of the dangerous and exciting subjects which they embraced. Mot of those subject, indeed, are beyond your reach, as the legislation which disposed of them was in its character IUI.! UUU lillliCiUIV J I ! V HU IM dual and immutable. It may be presumed, from lhe opjn,.,,, they all encountered, that none ol those measures were free fi irom imperlectior.s; but in their mutual dependence and connection, they lormed a system ol com promise most cone. hdtory, and tho bet lor the entire country that could be obtained from con tacting sectional interests and opinions. I' or this reason, 1 recommend your adhe rence to the adjustment established by those measures, until time and experience shall demonstrat: the necessity ol iurther legislation to guard ngamst evasion or abuse. liy that adjustment, we have been rescued from the wide and boundleFg agitation that surrounded us, und have a firm, distinct and legal ground to rest upon. And the occasion, 1 trust, will justily me in exorting my countrymen to rally upon and maintain that ground as the best, if not the only means, of restoring peace and quiet to the country, and maintaining iuviolate the integrity of the Union. IIeartles Deshrtiox. Last evening we heard of a case of desertion of the basest character. It appears that, Tuesday evening, a man by the name of W. M. Alonre. from Corydon, . Ia.. stopped at the Louisville Hotel wit h his wile. She is a lady of highly respectable connexions, and they had been married but six weeks. Wednesday morn ing he asked her to loan him her purse of momy, which sh did, retaining but $7. He then felt the hotel in company with Mr. Talbott, son of Elder Talbot r, of Corydon, and has not tince been heard of. Upon examination it was ascertained that'he had taken all his trunks and Inggagn away with him, And no doubt remained of his having abicouded. Moore ia a light haired, light complexioned man, with whiskers all round tin face. He U a shocmadr by tr de, und was very 'well dressed. Hi j wife rece'ved the utmost attention anil consideration from the proprietors of the hotel, who did everything in their power to assist her in her distressing situation. Last evening, at Iter own request, she was taken to the residence of a relative of hers, who resides ia the vicinity of the city. f Lou. Courier. c l4 . fi , Staling IIonsKs.--I twngenm!l,iita ,ry mistaken notion that the ...fety ot a. very roadster depends upon his lifting hi forefeet high from the ground, whereas it all depends on the manner in which he places them down upon it. The highest goers are often the most unsafe ; and there are thou.-nnds of instances of hordes going very near the ground and never making atrip. It is, however, a well established I'.tCt. that if the form of a horsc'n shoulder, and the consequent position ot the for Ie;, enable him to put his foot to the ground fl it, with the heel down, his Idling the foot is not at all necessary; whereas on the other hand, if, by any improper position ot the lei?, Usuinjr out of a short, upright, illformed shoulder, the toe touches the ground Crst and as it were digs info it ; no matter how

They came from 'Yankeedom," and are going to the new factory now just starting at Cannelton, It. The girls were, most of them, good. iVesh-loo'nir specimens of tho greit Yanke country. Before they are two years older, they will, prob ibly, all be married off, and perhaps doing the genteel in some of the elegant mansions of our Western men. Good luck to them all.

Western ConTCHtln at Evansville. The Convention, which assembled at Evansville, on the 19th ult., to taksome steps relative to the action of Congress -in protecting the interests of the Great West, vas

'JVi'posed of many of the most distinguished talented gentlemen of the Mississippi Valley. Tho. F. Risk, Esq.-,cf SL Louis, prefided over the deliberations ol the Convention. He is a warm friend of western enterprise, and a staunch advocate for western rights, contending that it is high time the importance ot this section of the Union should be acknowledged by the general government, and tome encouragement and protection given to its manufactures, commerce, and the development of its internal resources. He is one of the editors of the Western Journal." through which medium many facts and much information concerning he West, have been collected and given to the public. The Secretaries were A. H. Sanders, Esq., of the Evansville Journal, and John J. Chandler, E$q. Letters were read to the Convention from Hons. Henry Clay, Thos. H. Renton, David T. Disney, E. M. Huntington, Edw. Rales, Linn Boyd. Daniel Rreck, James L. Johnson, Phillip Triplet, M. Hampton. S. P. Chase, A. Stewart, Wm. F. Johnson, 13. II. Stanton. Jesse D. Rnght, Jos. A. Wright, Robt. D. Owen, and Humphrey Marshall. These gentlemen, so far as we have seen the published letters, unanimously concur in the propriety ol" holding such a convention and approve of the measures proposed to be discussed by if. We think the above array ofnames should silence a'l objection or doubt, as to the roustinitionality ot appropriations from the national treasury bv Congress, to promote western interests. Let any one carefully examine the subject, contrasting it with the spirit of equal rights aud exact justice to all, which is acknowledged by our institutions of government, and, if unprejudiced, he must be convince i that it is not only within the power of Congress to make such appropriations, but that it is an imperitive duty of that body to mete out the benefits and favors of the general government alike to all sections. Quibbling upon thi subject has caused the loss of much to the West, as well as of property iu lhe West. The memorial adopted by the convention, (which will be found on our first page.) is a document of sterling interest, representing in 1 !L 1 i - - - .1 1 strung unu lorcioie language, me claims oi the West, ' as a natural child of the Union." It reflects the feelings and sentiments of the great valley which contains ''one-third of the whole population of the United States," and should the Representatives in Congress fail to regard their petitions, our people may console themselves by putting men in their places who will carry out their wishes in this matter. The arguments and positions assumed in the memorial, are incontrovertible, and wc can not but believe that they will effect the results desired, before the present session of Ccnzress adjourns. The Louisville Journal, in remarking upon the memori il, says -it is altogether one ci the ablest documents embracing the interests of the West we have ever seen. There is no part which cou'd be improved, and in but one or two does it need correction. The correction which the Journal makes is in reference to the inference which may readily be deduced from the allusion to the foreign mail service, that Mr. Stanton, chairman of the committee on Naval Affairs, was opposed to making appropriations for carrying the mails on the western rivers. The honorable chairman did not oppose such appropriations, but urged tint they should be made. Tho following named gentlemen composed the committee who drew up the memorial: Hon. John Law, C. I. Rattell, Hamilton Smith, Hon. Elisha Embree, Messrs. Iaac Hutchinson, John Ingle, Jr., and M. J. Rray. It was read by John Law, and unanimously adopted as the voice of the convention. The convention adopted a series of very appropriate resolutions, speeches upon which, were made by several distinguished gentlemen. I Yincennes Gaz. A Lcarned Ri.ü.tDEn. When Adam Littleton wns compiling his Latin dictionary, assisted by an amanuensis, he dictated the word concurro. The scribe supposed that the various senses of the word in English would begin, as tisuar, with the most literal one. "7 Concur, I suppose, sir." The doctor immediately exclaimed peevishly, ''Concm ? coxx-dog" and accordingly . the amanuensis, supposing the latter word to be dictated, immediately wrote condos as ihe translation of concurro. It was even printed thus in the first edition of 167S, though this IndicrMi blunder was corrected iu the subsequent editions. "Wabash Navigation Company.

From Mexico. Ry the arrival of the brig Union, Captain Radovich. from Vera Cruze, 22d inst, we have received full files of papers to November 13.. The brig Union brought on freight $7.000 in specie. Tfie following is a list of her pas

sengers ; Mr. Stewart, Consul of Mexico at New York, Col. Russell, Col. AI C. Ramsey, and a Mexican. Col. Emanuel Alercan. Also. 13G passengers from California, via Acapulco, with about $200,000 in gold dust in their hands. The news is enterprising, though not of great importance.-In a political way there is nothing of importance to report. The question of tho Presidency it is conceded is ilefiniiively settled in favor of Arista. The financial condition of the Republic tiU engages the attention of Congress, which body is yet occupied in arranging the interior and loreign debt. This question creates a good deal of dilllculty. and seems to puzzle t lie legislators considerably. And well it may, for they have a large amount to pay and no thing to pay it with, after which they niUft provide lor the current expenses of the Goveminent, which alone appears difficult enough. It was reported in Mexico ihat tho-Teht-antcpec treaty had been rejected by the Sri -ate of the United States; but the mi-tike was soon discovered. Much anxiety is manifested in regard to the fate of the treaty. The Siglo announces poniively that lhe Mexican Government has concluded two contracts with Col. Ramsey, for the transportation of loreign mails through the Republic The Mexican Government will receive $20 fr every 100 pound of correspondence, and 20 cents lor every 100 pounds of newspapers. Ry another contract there is to be communication between New Orleans and Vera Cruz twice a month, between New York and Vera Cruz, by the wny of Havana, twice a month, and between a Mexican port und San Fcaucisea, once a ir.onih. A decision has at length been rendered in the case of the assassins of the deputy Cancdo, Avilesand Negrete. have been condemned to death, and Villaplando has been sentenced to two years' imprisonment. Three more Mexican Generals are dead; Tomas Reqnena, Manuel Romeo, and Gen. Rea. The latter was assassinated. A. O. Delta, 29th ult. LADIES' FAIR.
