J I CITY OP EVANSVILLE: SATURDAY MORNING,:::::::::DEC. IS. Tlie I'nnal. The Canahvill doubtless be in full operation from the- Lake to Evansville by the 1st of April. Such at least are the prospects now. In view of this fact, we have already called the attention of this public, to the matter of providing accommodations for the immense trade which will, on the completion of this canal, pour in upon us. As we heard a citizen remark yesterday, it is doubtful wether a man in Evansville has any definite idea of the effect of this canal cn the bu?ines3 of our city. As a community, we do not appear to realize its importance. 'As business men we seem to place certainly too low an estimate on its trade, and the importance of having the necessary accommodation? to properly manage it. All along the line of the canal above, business men appear to realize the probable effect of this improvement on Evansville, more than do our own citizens, and they express unmitigated surprise that we are not erecting warehouses to accommodate its business. Indeed, we elnil be in the condition of Terre Haute, wh;n the Canal was opened to that point. For two years, they-had not the proper warehouse accomodations, of course to the great detriment of buines3, and the consequent injury of the business interests of the city. What is doing ii Evansville, in view of the i speedy opening of this great .arter' of commerce ! Literally nothing, with the exception of the building of two or three canal boats. Nat a warehouse is going up Not a uingle improvement of ny nature, to take care of or assist the business of the Canal. If our own capital be all engaged in oilier matters, we thouM invite capital from abroad, and offer it inducements for coming hero and providing that which we are unable to do ourselves. We are sure capital from abroad might b inga handsome interest if invested in matters connected wlih the business of this canal. -AVnbali Produce. We learn from a gentleman just from the ' Wabash, that' the produce corning down this season from the Watash valley, will probably greatly exceed in amount that of any , previous season. There will not in all likelihood beso much grain brought down, at least from the Lower Wabash, as the corn crop was lighter than usual there, and traders have been limited in their operations. On the up per Wabah, New York ia making a great exertion this year to secure grain for ship ment by caual. There are men even at Terre-Haute, purchasing largely of wheat, with the intention of placing it in ware houses till the Canal fcpens in the poring. But the prfneipal capital of the Wabash, is this year engaged in pork. Immense quasti ties of pork are already awaiting shipment at points along the Wabash, and the ship ments of that article will far exceed those of lust year. Boats arc already in demand, but it does not seem profitable for them to visit the upper Wabash before January, as unless they have up freights, no matter how great 'their down freights, the trips are cot very profitable and up freights are scarce before that time. lr. I'rtor I) ic harmed. 3Irs. Trior, the accomplice of her husband in the passage of divers counterfeit bills in this city, some three weeks since, was yesterday brought before 31. S. Johnson, Esq., Master in Chancery, on a writ of halcas corps, and th3 Prosecuting Attorney required to show cause why she should remain in custody for the offence charged. Her counsel, Mr. Chandler, contended that the legal existence of Mrs. Prior was merged in that of her husband, by marriage, and that the -could not legally be made a felon for acts committed in his presence. A felony committed by the wife in the presence of the husband was held to be evidence presomptive of coercion on tho part of the husband. Mrs. Prior was accordingly dsciharged. Cald Weither The l9r. The saturaiingrain of day before yesterday, with its mild wind, was succeeded at night by bitter cold. .Yesterday morning, the ground was frozen hard, and a stormy wind seemed to pierce to the bones. This reminds us what preparations are to be made for the relief of the suffering poor this winter! There was much destitution' the early part of last winter, but it wa3 happily relieved in a great measure, by the efforts of an association formed for the purpose, who by means of a course of Public Lectures, obtained fuiiJs sufficient to diminish a great deal of suffering A similar or some other method, should be adopted without delay. Start the ball, and the Journal will lend good aid to keep it rolliog on. Old Kxox." Another Locomotive for the E. and I. Railroad, called "Old Knox, arrived here.yesterday. It appears, that notwithstanding a 'Vincennes paper says the .people of Vanderburgh will have to go to Vincennes to get away by railroad, "Old Knox" has to land at Evansville to get home by railroad! Facts are rather against fancy in this case.

The Pasorama or Ireland still attracts large audiences at the Apollo Hall. The young Minstrels are fully sustaining the high

reputation they hare won in the larger cities of Louisville. Saint Louis, and 'ether places which they visited. . The Painting itself-we "ppt! only say is magnificent, and will interest everybody who pays it a visit, Tjarticularly the lover of the rich, beautiful and romantic scenery of Erin's Isle. Each one of the interesting family performs its respective part to admiration; the "rich brojue' chimes melodiously with the "siccet accent" in streaks of droll, quia humor, wit and fun. There will be an exhi bition this afternoon at reduced fare for children, and in the evening at the usual rates. Everybody is going to the last one. JXTlie Vincennes Gazette, after giving the names of the recently elected officers of the E. and I. Railroad, thus pleasantly concludes: - We do certainly feel grateful to our liberal, public spirited fellow-citizens of. Evansville. They have monopolized the road monopolized the directory! and are Irving to monopo lize the whole of Southern Indiana. Go it gentlemen you'll eoon have to abandon your river and ditch, and come to Vincennes and take railrotd to gr?t away from home. We are hippy to inform our readers at a distance, that even after the above notice Evansville still continues growing.

The coast and harbor - abound w'th fish which although in some particulars almost all j. resemble 'fish found in other countries, yet strangely differ from them. ' With the head of a shark is found the tail of a salmon ; with the fin-, tail, and the general shape of the mackcre' is found the head of a codilsh. In deed the finny tribe, like the Test of animateo nature, appears to a 6tranger as if in mas querade. The scrubby oak, called there th 01 and which is something like our stunted blackjack, bears from every part of it'thr?e distinct fonnationsof leaf some leaves I ke ours on the same stem with foliage like the pi:e fir.

'B. EcROPEAS IgSORAKCE OF AMERICA PoLiTics. Tlu ignorance of ''European" journalist and t ven statesmen, in relation to American affair?, has lorn; been proverbial. "We find otii ther f xempliflcatiöii of it in the comments of a leaüing ' French paper, the Pans La S'ccc," upon the dedth- ot Dm:el Webster. It says that "his finest oratori al triumph was in 1830, when he epposed the oiious theory of the nulb'fcationcj the Jtbtt of the particular Slates.1 This is pretty rich, but is not equal to that which follows, viz: "In 1S3G he presented himself as a candidate for President, against General Jackrort, who came for mar d for the second time, and was defeated." This is a fair ppecimen of the manner in which tho European papers are pested tip in Amencan matters, and yet they discourse of them as if they were well in formed. Lon. Times. Interesting Scit. Messrs. Spaulding and Rxger? have commenced a suit at Baton Rouse against the corporation of t'l at place, for illegal seizure and detention of the r ioat ing Palare for exhibiting without a citv Ii cense. Thev refuse to give security to await the result, and have abandoned the boat to the authorities, by advice of counsel, and will institute a new suit every day while the de tention continues. They relv on the opinion of cne of the Juds of the U. S. Supreme Court, cf most of the State Judges, of the Attorney 'General, and prominent legal gentlemen of the West, who contend that the customary license of the Floating Palace exempts her from taxation for State and municipal licenses on the navigable waters cf the United" Stales. ÜErRiSTSOF E.nglish Books. A gentleman in this country recertly sent a copy of Lord Byron's works as a present to his brother in Ireland by the hands of a pentleman going thither; bot, on arriving at Liverpool, the book was seized by the - British customhouse officers, and condemned as a piratical print, notwithstanding the dutv wa tendered them. . It is stated that the English law and practice upon this subject are inflexible, and that no reprint of an Enfflish copyrighted book of any" kind is admitted into Great Brittain upon any terms.

For tad EnnsriUo Journal. Abounding: llrdi of oal not four miles distant frt-m Evanwille. Looking at the extensive slate-stone formations near our town, I had the conviction that coal would be found not two miles dis

tant from our court house. A few days ince,a friend of mine brought tome a speci men of coal that had been found four miles from here, one to two feet under the surface of the ground. The first strata of it are from one to two feet thick, and in such a quantity that its exportation must be of great profit to the proprietor. I have made a qualitative analysis of the same, which result has been a great one. It is by far superior ?.o that of Cannelton, and-contains less sulphur-, and larger quantities xf resinous - substances, yielding therefore the 'best1' material for gas factories and iron works. It is to me of no doubt, that coal will be found near Dr. McDowel's residence, and perhaps right under that hill. -These coal beds, which reach their highest point in the road from here to New Harmony, and which at some times j in the highest point of the country, are covered more or less in the lower regions by the clay that ha3 been washed down, and by those mentioned slate-stone layers. Evansville will derive its future greatness from those mines, which contains, in connection, iron and copper, specimens of which have also teen brought to rne for analysis. .The coal beds near the salt well will not be bwer than forty to. fifty feet under the surface, therefore select appropriate points and dig. Our farmers and land holders will find a Calüorma in Evansville. The water of the salt wellcornes from belo.v' the road. -I made an analysis of this water, which resulted to very little impor tance. . Of Muriate of soda (vhsheR salt) it contains very little; the most of sulphate of sjda and magnesia. 'There is no metallic substance in '- it uelth r iron,' iodine, nor bromine. ."It will not be lif fof bathing, and of no important ush as a catlttrtic. Who is t'J T.ost interested man to open the gold mines of 'Evansville! Thtt-fchould be' the question, that must fill the 'minds of our population. -The manufacturies of Belgium and of many districts ol England, derive thi": greatness from nothing else but this very coal. Millions of people live by it and this. is the source of their happiness. Verry respectfully yours, DOCTOR FHITSCH. We regret not being able to share Dr. F.'s anguine expectations relative to these coal mines. He has got'hold cf an old discovery. These strata of coal have been known for a Ion time, and -undergone thorough examination. 'Indeed, not long since, and perhaps now, this coal coul i be seen sticking out of the "and ulong the road. . Dr. Owen, proba bly the best Geologist in the Weir, has made a survey of this reg'on, with the particular ntLet of tseerfainir:ir"its woaa'.i in coal. J . n lie found the ttrata-of coal aliud d to by I). F. too f h i'.low to be worked witb profit. They are only ub.uit fifteen inches thick, we believe, while it is useless to attem; t to wo;k strata of coal for profit, which are less than thr?c feet thick, circumstances in -connection being us usual. On the completion of the canal, wc shall receive the coal of Martin county, it a cost delivered here, of probably not more than five cents per bushel. This will muke us independent of all river supplies, or at least prevent us being injured by tte-scarcity f coal brought down by river. Ed. Journal. ScAsciTror Silver is Esglasd. There is a great complaint of an increasing scarcity of bilver change in England, although the mint had issued small silver to the t-xtent of XUO.OüO since the 1st of July last. .The Queen .hau issued a proclamation declaring that silver in the colonies shall not be a legal tender for payment of sums exceeding 40s. Silver coin had hitherto been used in many of the colonies for large payments. This proclamation was doubtless wtendeU to prevent the large export of silver coin. Orlt is stated that the FrartklinHailroad Company will have their road completed from Erie to its connection with the Cleveland and Ashtakila Road, and ia full operation by the close of the year. This road will furnish a di'ect railroad connection between Albany and Cleveland, and must add -greally to the winter business which connects the Hudson with the Ohio. Kentucky and I.NDiASA, In the tables of the agricultural production of the 'United States, the pumher of improved acres upland in Kentucky is stated at 11 93270; the cash value of which is $154,330,202. In Indiana, the number of improved acres is 5,046,543, r.otNquite half the sum in Kentucky, and valued at $I3G635173. This table will be found in the fifth census, 1850. TiieMaike Law.
