It is rather amusing to read the severe notices President Pierce occasionally receives from his own party press. But a coupU years ago, there was no such warrior, states man or Christian, as Gen. Franklin Pierce. He was placed in power by a mighty parly, right over the headofaman whose whole life had been devoted to his country. The hosannas of his party ro?e high in the political heavens, and Gen. Pierce himself was ' no doubt astonished to find himself elevated from obscurity to the position of a very fair political oJ, with a great tribe of ve.y dirty but enthusiastic worshippers. But the divinity which surrounded him" became " penetrable to mortal gaze. Yea, blind Locofocoism finally saw through the flimsy web of divinity manufactured by its own poor machinery. They could no longer make themselves believe that Pierce divinity was invlhincr but a vptv common ham. Consej B .-.j quently those precious fellows known as Loi cofoco editors, have been exceedingly refreahioff at various times in telling patrons their opinions of the divinity which had so long been shaping their end., while the lion est of the party, witnessing the faltering if not diret running away of their leaders, scarcely knew what to think or how to act. Probably, it was because they were thus so perplexed, that in the late Slate elections they wheeled plump around to Gen. Pierce's face, and told him by their acts that his pol icy and administration deserved their earnest condemnation. . However all this may be, President Pierce has been condemned even by bis own party, and none are so poor now to do him honor, except those directly bound to the administration by the golden links of office or offi - cial patronage. We do not think President .Pierre is a man of bad heart, but he is vas- I cillating, weak and utterly unfitted for the position lie occupies. He has not in his composition the first element of the statesman. He was never born to rule, even when plated in the chair of the ruler. The New York Herald, his former warm supporter, very correctly alluJes to him when it says, as a private gentleman in a 6mall village he would have no responsibility, and it made no difference whether he changed his mind fifty times a dav. or had no mind at all: he would eet alonr solendidlv. and ,vhen he " ' I died, would be entitled m . hl mnn... ment, if any one chose to get it. But as President of the United States, he is pain fully below his position, the kindest criti cism his friends can indulge In, being that it Is his head and not his heart which errs! No man believes the administration has been successful, while the very leaders of the party, at Vshigton. have openly ex nressed themselves as ami hopeless ly disappointed in 3ir. rierce. i ney oouotw- ' m at. tuipmucnuj waiuogme unie wueii he shall sink back into the obscurity from L!.l .1 i . r .i m . wmcoioej sorasn.yarewh.m lortn. country pray, for the speedy approach of mat oieoseu time, .ei out me incuous oi k a 1. 1 1 . -.L.. f I fl President Pierce be removed, and the country will spring up again to its lateele.ation, ana me i-i Döring and manulucturing and bus . ..... . , . . . i inf ss interests of all kinds, now crushed to the earth, will smile again beneath a bright sky of prorperity. Arrest of n roil Office Clerk. Boston, Dec. 29. Joseph E.

We have learned of two instan ces, involving tHe purloining of $112 by somebody, and, knowing as every patron of ; the Evansville posHffice does know, that the officers in charge thereof are a&ote suspicion, we have been expectantly looking for the detection of some precious villain in the Boston post office for some time.' Postmaster tStinson and h:s efficient deputy, challenged an investigation of their official conduct, by U. S. Mail Agent, Brown, who, upon learning the facts at once exonerated them from the remotest grounds of suspicion. Those of our citizens, who hate been made the victims of this Boston pilferer, had better look in that direction for their money and further satisfaction upon the subject, and withhold their illiberal and unjust asper sioQs against the Evansville office. We thiuk it my now be "clear" to them where their money has cone to. tTlie mammoth Eclipse leaves Louisville on .Saturday, in command of her former popular Capt. E.,T. Sturgeon, with O. L. Smith, as cashier. She will probably be ' here on huoday. w . . . iKoxToa öuhk. the steamer Ironton struck a snag last Thursday nfght, hear St Louis, and sunk in fifteen feet water. The water is nearly up to her hurricane roof. Sh? was an old boat,and belonged to Messrs. Eads& Nelson.

Edward WelshTVis mammoth freight

steamer lay at our wharf all day yesterday taking on freight for New Orleans, and will leaveome time to day with probably 500 tons. The boat itself is a sort of second edition "Uncle Sain," allhongh greatly improved in, most of her appointments. -Her length is 270 feet, 33 fest beam and 8 feet hold. Hrr carrying capacity is 1400 tons. She has three 33 ' feet boilers, 40 inches in diameter, with four flues each. Her engines hove 24 J inch cylinders, with 8 feet stroke. She was built at Madison under the super intendence of Capt. Cable, her present commander, and is no doubt the best freight boat in the trade. She has cabin accommo dations for her crew only, which are ar'anged in the most comfortable manner. fJCS Mr. Fletcher Webster is busily engaged in editing two or three volumes of his father's correspondence, that will be published some time next season, uniformed in size with those works of Webster that have been issued. A whole year and a half has been devoted by a competent person merely to arrange these letters chronologically for the editor' hands. A rich addition to our liter ature may be expected. The work of the editor will Consist mainly of such I.istorical Introductions as will explain the origin of the letters of his father and their answers. ... I is said that one would be astonished to see the vast piles of materials that have been collected from all portions of the country, the cream of which is to be given to the public throush thesj volumes. Master Goodall's Cokcekt. Master Goodall, the infant violinist and the most extraordinary musician of his age in the country or in the world probably, will give a concert at Crescent Hall to-morrow evening, as will be seen by advertisement. He has beengiving concerts in the Eastern cities, and larger cities West, to crowded houses, and I as created a great excitement in ever place he has visited. So we think that his concert here will certainly give satisfaction. The Latest Arrival --Mess-e. Hallock & Stoddard received ycaterdiy a large stock of among the chicett cigars ever opened in Evansville. We have trird them, and being a judge of the article, pronounce several of the brands at least very choice. Try the Leo Ora, Napoleon or La Roaa brands, by way of illustration.

The last balloon ascension mide by the famous Möns. God dard, from the New York Hippodrome, was attended ly certain new features, exhibiting a fool-hardiness almost unparalleled. The Monsieur was seated on a pole (trapezium) suspended from the car by ropes at each end,' 20 feet long. When about an eighth of a mile up he commenced a'seies of gymnastics in the air, which the Stn, thus describes: v At one time he whirled over and over the pole of the trapezium; at another time grasp ing it A'ith a single hand he swunir his body to and fro as a, schoolboy woulJ do on a swing. Then, again, he appeared to b: nargingio it nun ms cniu oniy, men Eiauu ing upon it both hands hold of tho ropes then on one leg, then without any grasp of the lines, and finally as the btlloon uscended nearly out of sight, the daring voyager stoop ed, rolled over upon the trapezium and in mid heavens, hung suspended from it, head downward, with a single foot locked over the pole! , There perhaps could not be a greater exhibition of dating than this. - Many person who watched the feats trembled in their shoes as they saw him puss thiough aerial evolutions. He. however, restored them to their natural equilibrium of composure on escending by, the ropes of the trabeziurn,a distince of 20 feet, into i he car of his ship and to the company of his passengers. r-ewrtrttiuaTT. ine Wasnington correspondent, of the N. Y. Courier, thus quizzes the new principle of "popular sovereignty:" ' ' . , v "The administration has yiven another illustration of its devotion to the great principle elucidated in the stump speech on the Nebraska bill, the doctrine of squatter sovereignty. - The President has appointed Lieut. Col. Sieptoe, of the army, Governor ol Utah. He comüianJs the U. S. Guerruson in Utah. He his with him five hundred men, and a proportionate number ol followers in the pay of the Government. His appointment, therefore, is exactly equivalent to placing in this responsible civil t.fiice the first battalion of the 2d urlillery. How the squat ter sovereigns will receive the deposition uf lhtir,c!iet prirst Uov. loung, cannot be k.iown for the next three months, but it is supposed that th?y will prove temorily up roarious. However, His hxclleiicy, the 1st Ruttulion of the 2d Artilleiy, will immediate ly produce his credentials, to-wit: the great guns and short svords of his command, and will expound to the sovereigns the first prin ciple of the new democratic docrincs, which is passive obedience to the powers that be."

MESSAGE OF THE GOVERNOR OF NEW YORK. Aleak y, N. Y., Jan. 2. Gov. Clark's Message she ws the receipts into the generai furd to be $1,955,000; the payments $1,080,017. He anticipates a considerable reduction in the receipts, ow ing to the reduction in the taxes and canal tolls. The debt of the general fund on the 30th September was 86,355,000. The capital of the school fund has increased during the year. 42,000.. The receipts from . the canals during the year, were 12,987,000, and the expenditures Sl.23S.00U; the surplus, he eays, dose not meet that for which it was designed, by $104,000, which he attrilu es to the commercial embara&ment and short crops. On the liquor nuetrtion the Governor defines his. views, at considerable length, and strongly advocates prohibition, and with many strongarguments shows sucb a measure strictly constitutional; he hopes'a bill will be passed to suppress the traffiic in liquors, without interfering with personal righti. He strongly denounces the repeal of the Jlifsi uri Compromise, and considers its restoration necessary for the security and the peace of the Unnn. Pacific Railroad hew Project. Ev cry bod jr knows 'that Col. Benton and his il lustrious 8un-iii!av, t remont, have deeply at heart the construction of a railroad to the Pacific, and that no other men have so full thorough practical knowledge of the route us they. Colonel IJenton has expended time, labor, means, to consummate a plan for road, and tho' uuncuelerrpil ma 'r htiiigniiiir.TikeTiToses, - to see the promised enterprise at a distance, leaving to the young Joshua the leadi iir ot the people into the hud, he is nevertheless indefatigable to insure success. It is now reported that Col. Uenton says that he has the Pacific Railroad in his picket; that is to say, he has received the names ol twenty-three of the most eminent ca pitnli-ts in the country, to be put into a bill, as the names of members ot a company to whom Congress shall grant simply the absolute right of way through , the public lands for a railroad to the Pacific. These names were furnished him by Wm. F. Weld, the -Railroad King" of New England. Every man on the lis; is a millionaire, and although some of them have not been consulted in the matter, Mr. .Weld guarantees Hint all of them will consent to take part in the enter, rise. The following is the list: Hon. Abbot Lawrence, William SlurL'es. Robert C. Winthrop, Samuel Hooper, William Appleton, John M. Forbes, John E. Thayer, David A. Neal, 11. H. Hunnewell, Wm. F. Weld, William Amery, all ol Boston; John Carter Brown, of Providence R. I.; Wm. R. Rodman, of New Bedford, Mass; Erastus Corning, of Albany, N. V.; George (Jria wold, T. W. Perkins, Watts Sherman, R. H. Winsluw, EJwin C. Litchfield, George Bancroft, Thomas Tileton, John A. Stevens, Rob't B. Minium, all of New York. Colonel Benton proposes io introduce a bill giving these gentlemen the right cf way for the road, leaving them to select the rcute and giving them no aid whatever .from the Government, nor any promise to aid. He thinks he will gel his bill through and that the Company will go on with the work at once. Selden, Withers &. Co.
