A. H. SANDERS, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. CITT Of DVAnOYILLC; TTB0ÜESOAT 19 OCX SIX C, APB1X CT2AXZC0AT TTTLTA W call the ttention of lh officers of Wabash tni other packets to oar Job Office. We are prepared to do steamboat printing of all kinds with dispatch, in the neatest style, and at Louisville prices. The Journal Job Office is pro Tided with the largest and latest style steamboat cot for Bills, with smaller cuts of same pattern for largo and small cards. T7t hepe oar steamboat trienda will giro as a call, aa they are alwsj s welcome, whether they visit us socially or on business. 53It is estimated that there are in New York city over tiro hundred thousand build ings, including houses, stores and out-build injr two million five hundred thousand win dows and doors; one hundred and fifty thou and chimneys ; twenty-two thousand awn iag and lamp posts; thirty-five thousand fences and walls; thirty thousand trees: and five thousand places of shipping, from the mallest sail-boat to the largest packet chip and steamer. 53" A few nights since, a new steam flour ing mill, owned by Mr. Delany, at Peoria, was discovered to be on fire. It had been set in the attic, but was fortunately extin guished before it had made much progress. While the firemen were engaged, at the mill, another fire was discovered in the warehouse of Andrew Gray, which, after a hard fight of no hour or two, was also extinguished. New Bridge. A substantial and splendid iron bridge has been constructed by thu Bal timore and Washington Railroad Company over the Patuxent river, twenty-one miles from the former city. Its strength may be determined from the fact, that with two engines, weighing each forty-five tons, passing swiftly over it, the structure remained un moved. Hoax in New York. Some alarm was created at the Custom House, N. Y., on the 2fth ult., in consequence of a large box be inj taken from the ship Ocean Queen, from which there issued such noisome affluvia that it was supposed to contain human bodies in a statt: of putrefaction. On the Coroner being sum tnoned, however, and the box opened, it was found tocontain,instcad of decomposed bodies only some bottles of hydra sulphur am monia, broken in moving, which, it ia wel known, cmiti an alluvia much resembling that from a decaying human body. tCJ"There are strong manifestations of i very excited state of popular feeling in West ern Virginia, in view of the belief, which is fast gaining ground, that the mixed basis wil be adopted in the new constitution. The Staunton Spectator, always moderate and cautious in expression of opinions, and care ful and accurate in its statement of facts, re fers to the deep feelings that are aroused in the West, and trusts that the result rosy not be a division of the State. The vexed question will probably have to be settled by mutual concessions and compromises. The great compromises of Congrees in favor of our national Union are a patriotic example for Virginia's imitation. tC?" Great sensation has been lately caused at Florence, by an intended duel with pistols between two countesses, in consequence of a political dispute. One of these ladies had Ukcn an active part in the war of Italian Iodependence,and the other was the wife of a distinguished diplomatist The combatants were on the ground, and the pistols charged, when fortunately the husbands arrived and put a stop to the a flair. H5-Hon. Samuel H.'Phelpe, late United States Senator lrora Vermont, in a letter to Joseph Segar, Esq., a member of the Virginia House of Delegates, explains the circumstances under which the Vermont law in opposition to the execution of the fugitive slave law was enacted. Mr. Phelps expresses his belief that, when the Legislature meet again, the art will be promptly repealed. His entire letter is excellent. iCtThe State of Iowa has just abolished the penalty of death. Wisconsin has barely failed 'to abolish the death-peualty this winter. A bill for that purpose passed last session, but somehoiv failed to reach the Governor so as to receive his signature. This year it has failed. In Michigan, repeated attempts to re-enact the death-penalty, abolished fire years ago, have been defeated. fC"On the 20th ult., the arch of the new brewery building at Slapleton, S taten Island, fell, killing Mr. Wolf, the owner, and injuring the foreman and some of the workmen, the wood-work being knocked away. The Uncle Sam has made quite a hole in the immense lot of freight that was on our wharf a couple days since. It speaks well of Evansville that tho largest freight boat in the West, has been loaded here nearly every trip this season. K3The swift Alex Scott passed up yesterday. We are under obligations to Messrs. Poole &. Brother for late dates, forwarded from New Orleans by the Scott. We publish to-day a beautiful piece of poetry, written by Uco. D. Prentice, Esq. Read it.

In the House of Representatives, the committee on banks and banking have reported bills to in corporate the Cambridge Market Bank, with a capital of $100,000; Faneuil Hall Bank, Boston, with a capital of $500,000 ; Hadley Falls Bank, Holyoke, with a capital of $150,000; Essex Bank, $100.000; and MaiJen Bank, $100,000 ; and a bill increasing that of the Warren Bank, Danrers, by the sum of $60,000. Resigned. The Hon. S. Vinton, for 22 years a member of the House of Representa tives from Ohio, has resigned his seat in Congress. Mr. V. has always been a working member, of the Elisha Whittelsey stamp, and in his retirement the people of Ohio and the West, as well as his immediate constituents, lose a useful, faithful, and influential public servant. fjQIt is estimated that there are no less than ten thousand daguerreotypists in the U States at this present time. It may be thought a little singular, yet it is neverthe less true, that the best daguerreotypist in Paris is an Americun, a Yankee from Boston", named Thompson. Steamship Cincinnati. The press of Cincinnati are quite in raptures with the new steamship ofthat name, Mhich is now ready to take her departure for California. She is spoken of as being equal in speed to the av, erage of ocean steamers, and as being a per fect gem ot naval beauty.

J Tie holy time. The evening shade - Steals with a soft control O'er nat ore, as a thought of heaven Steals o'er the haman soul, And every ray from jonder bine, And every drop of falling dew. Seem to bring down to haman woes, From heaven, a message of repose. O'er yon tall rock the solemn trees, A shadowy group incline. Like gentle nans in sorrcw bowed Around thtir holy shrine; And o'er them now the night winds Mow, So calm and still, the music low Seems the mysterious voice of prayer Sof. -echoed on the evening air. The mists, like incense from the earth, ' Rise to a God beloved, And o'er the waters move as erst The Holy Spirit moved; The torrent's voice, the wave's low hymn, Seem the far notes of Seraphim, And all earth's thousand voices raise Their song of worship, love, and praise. The gentle sisterhood of flowers Bend low their lorely eyes, Or gaze through trembling tears of dew Up to the holy skies; And the pure stars come oat above Like sweet and blessed things of love, Bright signals in the eternal dome To guide the parted spisit home. There is a spell of blessedness In air and ear;h and heaven And nature wears the blessed look Of a young saint forgiven ; Qh, whe. at such an hour of love, Can gaze on all arround, above, A nd not kneel down upon the sod With nature's self to worship God! t&Mr. Calhoun's Works, the South Car olinian aiys, are now stereotyped so far aa the first volume, which will comprise Mr. C.'s elaborate disquisition ou Government, and a discourse on the Constitution and Govern ment of the United States.

- Important Trial. In the U. S. Circuit

v;ourt, at New York, a suit is on trial, of considerable interest to the press and the public in general. The complainants are he editors of the Express newspaper, Messrs. Brooks, vs. the Morse Tetegraph Companys The Question at issue is. whether a tele graphic dispatch can be withheld until the disputed price of a message previously delivereu is settled. The disnatch the Express was deprived of contained news of the flareup between the late Frteid nt Ta)lor and M. Poussirt, the French Minister. The com plaints contend that not having that price of news at a time when the public mind was much excited as to the probabilities of a war with trance, damaged the Express, llrey sue to recover accordingly. The New York correspondent of the Bal timore Patriot, under date of the 30th oil say, in reference to the above case: The Telegraph contended, that having an unsettled dispatch account with the Express, they had a right to keep back a dispatch till the account was paid. Ihe court ruled out all such a defence, and held that telegraph companies contracting to receive and dispatch intelligence, were bound, in good faith, to fulfil their contracts, and were field responsi Die fn damages lor not doing it in this case. The question ihen was one of damages. The jury brought in $300. And so the edi tors ot the bx press have established a very important principle for the press, aud lor the community. Most S.kgular. Some few weeks ago a lady, named David, came to the city from the . a country, uccompaiueu wun iwo sons, one about ten years old, and the other something older. 15ut a short time aller their arrival the youngest was missing, and, notwithstand ing all pains have been taken to discover his whereabouts, he has not yet been found. Of course Doth niauicr and orotner are in great tribulation about the matter. Not loni u;o the mother received an a no ny mom ietier, which stated the child tvas at a certain house in Louisville, and the lady lost no time in go ing down, but she soon ascertained that she was sent 011 a fool's errand, as no tidings could be had of the lost one. She has aUo been informed, through the same source, that her son was at Madison and at Hamilton, which, on pursuing inquiries, she found to he false. Mrs. Davis can assign no reason why suchacoue of conduct should be pursued toward her, as she. is not aware that the per sun lives that harbors enmity ngainst her. The writer of the anonymous letter gives no reason for what lie has done, nor does lie claim a ransom for the surrender of the boy. which rendira thu circumstance st-1 more singular. We suppose the whole matter will be unravelled niter awhile, but iu the meantime the lady must remain in great distress on account ol'the peculiar state ufaüaire. If the child is abducted, as it would seem, u heavy punishmeut could be imjoed upon those that perl'oimcd the act. if they can he (bund, and such secrets sooner or later are discovered. Cin. Enquirer. Musical Steamboats. Jenny Lind is about to be thrown 111 the back ground by a process of niuiic making, recently discovered by u Mr. Win. Hoyt, ot Dupous, Indiana. Air. II. asserts that fie has invented a plan by which music can be produced on steamboats, ol the softest and tnobt pathetic character by the agency of'steam. His method is, to place across the boilers, ia a horizontal position, a pipe of such length nnJ size as may be projer for that purpose, both ei.di, of course, air tigiu. in or i.ear ilie center must be u connection to let the steam iu the pipes. Upon the lop of the horizontal pipe are placed seven or mure small pipes 111 a perpendicular position, an J at a suitable and convenient height, and in the top of these arc inserted whittle of different izes aud tones.. These whistles are so constructed as to screw up or down, in such a wuy as to regulate the sounds while turning them, and a set of keys have also been introduced to let off the steam or shut it off when necessary in the same manner as the pedals press 011 a piano. Mr. Hoyt thus speaks of'his discovery: 'I am satisfied that music can be made by steam on a boat or locomotive, us well as it can be playea with brass instruments, and much cheaper, much louder, and without any loss 01 sii-am,: mere is always a surplus whilst landing, whilst at the wharf, and when leaving. It is my candid opinion that, the West ern JJys will hear 'Old Dan Tucker,1 'Auld Lang Syne,' dtc, played on the Western waters by steam at a distance of len miles. I ieu? Albany ISullelin. The BcNEriTS or Cocrtino. Horace Wcutworth, of Lowell, who is undergoing an examination on n charge of having been concerned in the murder of Collector Parker, in Manchester, is able, prove an alibi.

When the Turkish Major win nt Washington, among his vUitori was Gen. Scott. Addressing Iii interpreter, the General requested that he might be made known to the Turk. Thi,' said the internretor. 'is Gen. Scoff, the hero of Lundy's Lane the officer that whipped the the Mexicans, and 1 Siop! slop!' replied Amin Bey, arresting the interpreter in the midst of his speech; and he mad pome remarks to the interpreter in the Turkish language, which that individual rendered to the General : He stopped me General, to say that he knew you that you were the greatest General in the world.' The Russian Government has derided that the thousandth anniversary of the foundation of the Russian Empire, which according to the historians ofthat country, dates from the year 852, vall be celehnted next year with the greatest pomp in all tha ritiea and large towns of the European and Asiatic provinces of Russia.
