The Old Liners of Evansville, last week. in view of the approaching spring city elec tion, saw fit -to adopt the policy they nave been of late so very generally proscribing, we mean that oi fusing dropping their party name, and collecting together the. fragments of all parties and isms opposed to Know Nothings. They called a meeting for last Saturday night of all "law-abiding citizens," &c. opposed to Know Nothings, to form a ticket fsr city officers.. They threw side the exciting temperance question, and discarded for the time their own party name and any principle which gullibility might attach to the name, excepting the single one of opposition to "Know Nothings." A proposed meeting of so singular a nature as this in the history of Old Line Democracy in Evansville, of course occasioned a great deal of gessip, and a general determination seemed manifested to attend the meeting to see the fun." Well, Saturday night theCourt House was crowded. It is needless to say the Old Line leaders here had all the work 'cut and dried' before ' the4 organization officers, course of proceedings and ticketleaving nothing but, the usual formality to begone through with, so that the ticket, icstead of coming directly from these fellows themselves would by a general meeting of anti-Know Nothings be offered to the good people. Judge Lockhart was called to the chair, and the ec'itors of the Enquirer, German Reform and German Volksbote, appointed secretaries, the Journal editor having been somehow forgotten. The chairman stated the object of the meeting, and said that no one would be expected or permitted to join in the business of the meeting, except those who were opposed to the .secret society commonly known as Know Nothings, thus cutting off probably the great mass of the meeting! No dissatfaction was expressed, and Maj. John Wesley Hughes popped up, with resolutions already prepared, thus sav ing, the formality of a committee on the sub ject. We have not a copy of the precious manuscript on hand,' and only recollect that they were furious as though our worthy shcr iff. himself had prepared them, against all rascally Know Nothings. To give a full idea of their lucidity, power and logic, we need only say that they read very much as if Maj. Hughes himself had written them. They were ordered to be published in all the papers in the city except the 'Journal! What do these chaps mean? The Major could not lose this opportunity of talking-, and talk he did as he always does when he has a chance. Bet this time, '.like the Judge, he appeared bent on endeavoring to impress upon the minds of all ' present, that a certain class of persons' would not be allowed to participate in proceedings by voting, nor must they kick up a moss in consequence. He and the chairman both appeared to feel, that if every body 'in 'the house was permitted to vote, resolutions or nothing else would pass, unless with the free consent of an opposition maThe resolutions were passed. Col. Drew was called on for a speech, but had the good sense, to .decline making one. But before this, Dr. Hutchinson (all Old Liners) moved that a committee of thirteen be appointed to Dominate t ticket. Carried, and the chairman read off his list of names according to programme. Two or three or the committee, not baring probably been notified the day before of their appointment,' were absentIn attempting to fill the last, several gentle . . men were called by name by the chairman, but .respectfully declined. .; The chairman finally appeared to think that he had better stick a doctor la the committee, probably to make its ticket icork well. One doctor was called.' 'He declined, knowing very well a . near relative of his would be on the ticket, according to the family way, and it wouldn't look well for himself to be on the committee which was te nominate the other member of the "happy family." Another doctor was called upon.' He arose and declined the honor. . He said he war an Old Liner but strongly; suspected! lie got cheered! A third doctor 'had his name called out. He jumped op, and said he would serve with pleasure. Whoever knew, him . to ' decline 'assisting in making up an Old Line ticket . for his parly! But he is better used to the ' secret clique way of doing that business. The ! 'committee being out, Maj. Hughes took the floor again, a chance "to talk being being offered, and in a very mixed np kind of manner, somewhat natural to himself, want . ed'all candidates present to say whether they would abide by the decision of the commiltee. By an after-explanation that is what wt understood him to mean, although in commencing this after-explanation he said he didn't mean tflat. However Well. Walk er got up, and announced to his astonished hearers that he would abide by the decision as well. be might say so, knowing very well that his name was on the ticket to be passed. No other candidate spoke, so the Major's proposition had but a vert email result in deed. . ;

Mr. McGrevr .rose, to the tonishmerrt

Old Liners and of those who like himself were not Old Liners, but "strongly suspected." Mr. Gat itt jumped up in a fury, a per fect juvenile thunderstorm, and as if all the Old Lineiem in the bouse had suddenly been concentrated by some politico-chemical pro- j eesa into himself, and denied Mac's right to speak there he was a Know Nothing, &c, A young man arose, and pertinently remark- ; ed, that as Mr. Gavitt had a while ago de clined participating in certain business, be cause he did not live in Evansville, he should like to know what right Gavitt had to interfere in this matter. The chairman or-, dered him to take his seat, but we don't re-, i collect having heard the voice of our recent ly transformed Old Line sheriff again during the evening. Mac continued his speech, ) which was received throughout with such tremendous applause as to exhibit Old Liners ' in a very decided minority. - Maj. Hughes, standing before Mac, deliberately commenced pulling off his coat when Mac had finished. It was at once suspected that poor Mac's wool was to suffer in some way, but whether by blows or words was uncertain. Of course talk won the preference with the Major, and at it he went again, but didn't say much at last, a kind of fault he has, though words abound with him. But friend Hughes intended well throughout, and we give him credit for that. Mr. Denby responded to an exceedingly weak call. When we say he spoke in hia usual style and on his usual subjects, Know Nothings and himself, we presume those who ever heard him, will excuse any longer notice of his effort. But the committee came out snd read their report of nominations. The ticket commenced with a Whisky Old Liner, and ended with a Whig Son of Temperance! Ob, fusion, which party now dost thou claim? But this may be called a "whisky ticket" most decidedly a ticket which no temperance man or friend of the new liquor law could consistently voteCor. The four prominent candidates represent nothing connected with the temperance cause. Only one man on the whole ticket is a native born American! We do not object to the men on this account, but we do object, and every .lmerican should object, to so insulting a prafrrence being shown to men of foreign birth over those of American birth, in the filling of prominent offices. No one,, perhaps, but a "Know Nothing," would have objected to a proportionate number of the candidates being of foreign birth, but every good citizen should object, to a ticket made up as is this. Nothingcould have a stronger tendency than this action to draw the line of distinction between the foreign born and native born. MW a ä m m. ine Know Nothings themselves are not drawing a closer distinctive line, than is the nomination of a ticket of seven names, six of whom belong to men not born in this country. But we leave the ticket for the present. ' ' ; Well. H. Walker, having, received his nomination, felt it incumbent on him to make a speech of. thanks so he commas ced: Mr. President. Sir. I feel, sir, much hon ored. sir, by the nomination, sir. And, Mr. President, although young in years, sir. yet these years, sir, have been devoted to the op position of Know Nothingism, sir. And al tho', sir, one might have been chosen, sir, who was better qualified for the office, sir yet Mr. President, ths committee could not have "selected a firmer Democrat, sir, or a stronger or better, opponent of Know Nothings, sir. Well, got , balked several times by the ap plause, but .bore himself well, and slightly bored the crowd, too. " Before putting the. ticket to Totej tie chairman made a speech very happily calcu lated to have 'created a delightful muss, if those to whom it was addressed, had any disposition to seriously disturb the proceedings of the meeting. His assurance that those who were conducting the proceedings of the meeting, were prepared to forcibly prevent interference if necessary, and similar remarks he made, were altogether .uncalled for, out of place, and insulting to those particularly addressed. :- Except to applaud. McGrew, those not connected with the meeting in their feelings, did nothing to which the Old Old Liners could have seriously objected. They evidently regarded the whole affair as the last desperate resort of the Old Line Machine Democracy in .Evansville, shrinking from its own name for success, and by a hypocritical display of opposition to a single as sociation, endeavoring to fuse all parties to elect a ticket manufactured by a clique of petty Old Line leaders. They evidently had no wish tO( interrupt the proceedings, they had not shown any such disposition, and the braggadocia of the chairman was unwarrantable as it was ridiculous. After the passage of the ticket, the meeting adjourned in great good humor. (Ö"Mr. John M. Sampson requests us to deny the rumor set afloat, about town, that he had withdrawn from the canvass for City Marshal. He says he shall be found on the track till the last vote is polled and no flickering. fJC?"Mr. E. M. P. Carter, wants it distinctly understood that he yet remains a candidate for City Marshal, and assumes the public that he intends to run the race through and enforce all law or ordinences that come within his province as an officer.

dotted Great Fall In Ileal Estate. The thing failed the Evansvflle Enquirer, which assumes to dispense Democracy to the

people of our city and county, appears tobe flattering itself that it has perpetrated withering and blighting criticism upon the position"" f the Journal. The" hitherto Old Jjne orjan came out yesterday under an entire new stand of colors, and makes an awk ward .tow to its readers and patrons as the anti-Know Nothing' champion of all creation, from Brazil to KamptskatkaV We are i'iyited to "look at our position," and are told that there are Germans, Irish and ,Engjshmen now living here, who .'were citizens of the place before we ever saw Indiana. We are told that to these very men we are indebted for our situation in Evansville, &c. We will inform our cotemporary that we have: often, reviewed our. past history, and the history of the Journal under our dtrection.'and we are fully sensible of the obligations, that our friends .'of all nations have placcd .-uü under to them. We can further assure our neighbor that we feel no uneasiness at his silly attempts to criticise our position as a man or as an editor. And if he chooses to contrast our character and stand ing Jn society with that' of his own! or the position of the Journal with that of the En quirer, we shall yet feel no cause for alarm. We have no dirty Billings gate to vorai1 out against your faultless ticket (?) Such epithets ait '-drunken Irish and dirty Dutch" are peculiar only to the columns of the En quirer. , ; The great bug-bear about the depreriation of Real Estate in' Evansville is the shallowest . piece of demagrguism that a "Shallowpan.Wmdy" imagination could invent. We are willing that our cotemporary shall make all the capital for his ticket out of this humbug, that he can find in it. To any man with a half a tu'iness idea even under as thick cranium as that of the Enquirer editor, the deprciation of real estate will not at pear so monstrous after all and only in keeping with the general falling off in trade throughout the country. If in consequence of the liquor law, real estate owners are disposed to sell property at depreciated prices for the purpose, of. finding a locality more congenial to their notions of liberty, we have no doubt they can well be spared, and wish all euch as much success as they have realized here. 07" We announced yesterday Mr. Wm. Brown a candidate for City Collector. Being asked who he was several times, we now alter the notice so as to explain itself. Billy Brown is the man, known by that name and no other, and loved where known. Nico Members ot Congress. The senior editor of the Louisville Journal was in Washington for eome weeks previous to the recent adjournment of Congress. He gives the following account of a trick plived off by some wags on a number of member of Congress, each of whom thought himself a perfect Adonia an J. irresistible laJy killer:A couple jf merrj felMws, one of them a diatiniruisbed member. of Conjrrea fror'n a Southern State, and the other dis'inguished ex-editor from Kentucky, concocted a letter purporting .o be addressed by a young lady to d very fine looking 'gentleman.. It was got up in first rate style. The pretended lady set forth therein that she had several times seen the gentleman she was addressing, that she was captivated by his fine face and manly form, that her heart was deeply touched by all she aaw nnd heard of him, and that she must make his acquaintance before his departure from the city, that she hoped and prayed he would forgive her seeming boldness, as it was the first imprudent act of her life, that she had always moved and was still moving in the highest circles of the Capital, that she would be upon a certain square of a certain street at precisely 12 o'clock on the following day in a dress which she, des cribed with great particularity, - and that sha hoped and trusted he wouIJ meet her and thus afford her an opportunity of a brief personal intercourse with the idol of her. heart. The two wars had between thirty arid forty copies of this letter written by a female friend of theirs, and they sent these copies to be tween thirty and forty members of Congress selecting mo$e or course who were known to entertain a very exalted opinion of their own personal fascinations. Everything being thus arranged, the two jokers called upon us and another young gentleman, explained what they had done, and invited us to get into their. carriage, ride with them to the point of assignation and see the sights. .We unhesitatingly consented, and wesssw sights sure, enough.; Riding upon the designated square, we beheid the whole'of the thirty or forty memhers,' Northern men and.i Southern men, WhigsVDemocrits ncd Know Nothings, walking to and fro, all gazing earnestly in every direction and at every female figure to discover the object of their anxious search. We concluded, tfiat if a few more copies of the letter had been sent to members of the Hou3e of Representatives the House would have had to adjourn for the want of a quorum. .a a " i American L.ndle in Pari. One of the most remarkable features of the ball, given by the Americans in Paris on Washington's birth-day, and a subject of general remark on the part of foreigners was the great beauty of the American ladies, the stateliness of their carriage, and the taste and the immense cost of their toilettes. Among those who attracted the most attention, either from their personal beauty or the richness of their toilettes, may be mentioned: Mrs. and the Misses Mason; Mrs. Ridgway, who carried lace for 30,000 franc, and diamonds for 100,000; Mrs. Lesuer, of Norfolk, also covered with lace and diamonds, Mrs. Commodore Stewart, Mrs. Charles Astor Bristed, of New York; Mrs. Piatt and sister; Miss Ella Kirby, of Cincinnati; Mrs. and Miss Corbyn,of Virginia; Mrs. John

Monroe, of Boston; Mfs; N. M. 'Beckwith and sister; Miss Forbes, MisFjs Murray, Mrs.

J. A. Post, of New York; Mrs. General Thomas, U. S. Army, of New York; Mrs. J. Colford Jones, of New iork and four daughters, Miss Alice Jones, Mrs. Livingston, Mrs. Walter Langdon, and .Mr. Woodtury Langdon, Mrs. Deminjj and Mrs. Maunsell 11. Field of New York; the Countess Charles De Boi"ne. on American ladv. erster of the Hon. Robert M. McLane's wife, of Paris; the Baroness de Corvaia, an American lady from New Orleans, of Paris; Mrs. S. Abbott Lawrence, of Boston; Mrs. Healy, wife of the artist; MfsW.' tf.'ßabbitl, Mrs. Dr. George of Baltimore; ' Mr. J. Kennedy Smyth, of Alabama; Mrs. 'Peck and two Slisses Hutton, of.New York; Mrs. Mifflin, of Boston; Madame Pilie, Madame Hennen and daughter, of New Orleans! Mrs. Brooks, 31rs. G. T. Richatds. ! Several ladies of the families of member of the diplomatic ccrps united with this bright host of American ladies in enlivening the . m a at. lit scene. 1 he eyes ot the ladies ouisparKieu their diamonds, and this, is no scant praise, for the display of the latter was astonishingly lavish and brilliant. The fair Americans, especinlly, disdaining their undisputed beauty to which alone most of them might safely have trusted, were 'evidently ambitious of equalling in ravishing ' toilettes the utmost perfection of that kind afforded by Paris the metropolis of fashion. Their ambition must h-,ve been satisfied, "They deserved well of" their dressmakers, and, it should be ad ded, of their dressing-maid?; for they wore their dresses no less gracefully than they were made. They cculd scarcely be distin cuished, (while they kept their mouths shut) from their Parisian cousins, save that their face?, to American eyes, at least, were more lovely. Even European, whose notions of beauty differ considerably from those of Amer icans, generally agreed that the young Amer ican woman is unquestionably charming in form and countenance. J hey recognize still more rapidity the facility with which she assimilates her style of dress to Parisian fashions. They add that, in this last partic ular, she enjoys a marked advantage over most of English women, who, they continue, however rich and elegant their dresses may be, do not know how to wear thm Sunlx9 Iiciion. Some of our cotemporaries are engaged in discussing the question of whether snakes lay eggs or not, and how young snakes are born. We copy a couple certificates on the subject proving oppositions somewhat: Much discussion is being had all about snakes some persons affirming on their own positive experience that snakes do lay eggs, and that Harper's writer is right. Now we don't speak entirely from book knowledge'in saying-that rattlesnakes are viviparous. Once on a time, in gathering strawberries, we came upen a - hig-bellied rattlesnake, and after some trouble succeeded in killing it. After mauling it to our heart's content, we with true professional enthusiasm, concluded upon n post mortem examination, and went at it with our barlow knife. The first incision in the belly brought forth three little snakes, that actually ran away in the grass. Our investigation ended there, for we had no idea of making a day's business in murdering the multiplied ,;varment.M This, to us, is conclusive as to the crotalus rperies, and we must - believe Harper's writer ts a natural Know Nothing upon "snaix." . Sandusky Register,' ' Morb"Saix." Are rattlesnakes viviparous! Do snakes lay eggs, or don't they! Your humble servant, while ensaged in plcujrhinjr once upon a time, on th nunny side of n clay alone, turned up with the share txxver a dozen " small esss, resembling insize and .appearance those of a quail. He: had often, turned up, in damp woodland ground, scores of ejrgs of the common tortoise and, at first glance, suprosed these to be the same, but upon breaking them found each a slim copper snakes about twelve inches in length Some of them immediately evinced their hostile propensities by springing up at the legs of his pantaloons, whereupon he summarily despatched the whole lot, and ploughed on his way rejoicing. If copperheads can and do lay eggs as yours truly testifies, why may not rattle and other snakes. Yonrs,truly, AN EX PLOUGH BOY. dn. Com. .Field Beans a. Profitable Chop. In our own experience we have found no crop more profitable, than the common white bean. It requires little more care than corn; and always finds a ready market at high prices. There is no product of the 6oil which contains as much nourishment, pound for pound as this. The straw makes excellent winter food for sheep. We have found the smaller kinds to be superior to those of a larger size. ? .Beans require a dry icarm soil. We have raised them where it was so dry andsardy, scarcely any thing else would grow. Our best bean crops have been raised on a thin sandy soil so filled with' stones that it was exceedingly difficult to plow it at all, and where the earth over the limestone rocks was no where more than four inches deep. - One acre of such ground we planted with common white beans forten ysars successively, and never failed of getting a remunerative crop, and often had a very profitable one. This plot was plowed,', planted and hoed, at odd spells, when it was so wet that no other ground could be worked . . J Schools is, America. I can positively affirm, from personal observation, that, in point of general disciplinethe American schools greatly excel anv I have ever seen in great Britain. In Canada and in the States, every suitable provision is made for the purpose of decency a thinr 'usually neglected in the parish and burgh school system of Scotland. I was much pleased with the arrangements of the American schools to prev nt disorder, or improper interference one with another among the pupils. All are seated at small desks, not more than two together, in rows, so that the teacher can conveniently reach every scat in the school. It is customary, like-wise, to cause all the pupils to enter and depart slowly and decorously, instead of being suffered, as I observe, even in some of the more pretentious schools of Edinburgh, to rush rudely out like so many wild animals. Wm. Chambers. CO James Trader, who was convicted last week at Terre Haute of stealing, and sentenced to the Penitentiary for two years, had his wife and child in Court for dramatic effect: They were terribly afflicted. The Indianapolis Sentinel is informed that Trader once swapped his wife off to a negro for a stallion. Striking example of woman's devotion in adversity. ' ,

1the" Indiana Legislature recently opened the session with a general prayer, which' closed with the following eloquent and sensible invocation. Part ot this invocation, itntrikee ui, are ttell spited to other meridians besides that of Indiana r ' - "And,-0 Lord, have mercy upon cur leg islators. Be with them nd bless tbem even if they know tin e not. Spare their lives and; teach then to Florify thy name. Hasten . ., . . ' , i ' them to their homes where they may direct; their, attention to rood works and general uefulnr among their - families and neigh bors. May the people resolve to keep them there, and, in future elect men of sounJ morals and temperate habits, so that good may hereafter result from legislation. Save the good people of. the State from disgrace which must follow if the same crowd should again" come here to make laws. Hear us, Lord, and grant our prayer Amen" - Tobacco iüthe Ciiurch. We find in the Baltimore Sun a report of the proceedings of the Conferenccof the Methodist Church, at which same eix hundred reverend gentlemen belonging to that highly intelligent, and pious denomination of churches were present. In the proceedings occurred the following singular and instructive debate upon the compatibility of tobacco chewing and decent behavior in church. It will be seen that the "weed" had its defender, and that tobacco chewing finds high authority as a habit doing good: : r. : Rev. Robert Cadden here arose, and mov ed that not more than twenty members of the Conference he permitted to be ebfent at one time and engaged in smoking cigars. Mr. Cadden proceeded with very good natured remcrks to inveigh against the evil 'practiceof usin the nausecus weed, which provoked the members and excited the attention of the whole house. He stated that he had made a very careful calculation in regard to the growing evil, and come to the conclusion that the sum of 6,000 was wasted annually by the Methodist preachers of the Baltimore Confeience for tobacco and cigars. That calculation was based upon the belief that two hundred of the preachers chewed tobaco, and that one hundred smoked cigars, and that he could not possibly conceive with what kind of conscience they could act thus, when they knew they must give an account to God of their conduct. The sum thus wasted would be amply sufficient to support two missionaries in China.' The speaker recollected how, during the loft Conference, the old consecrated ground of the Light Street Church had been desecrated by the filthy use of it, felt mortified when he thoughtofit. He had once boen a slave to the vice, but through the good providence of God, was led to see his error.oiid was finally converted. Rev. Aquilly A. Reese I want to know how long it has been since you were converted? ' ; Rev. R. Cad'len About two years ago sir and now I would like to Bee the whole Baltimore Conference an anti-tobacco using society. Rev. Elisha Butler moved to refer the matter to the Committee on Temperance. j Rev. W. T D. clemm moved to refer it to a committee, and that Rev. K. Butler be placed t the head of that committee. i. . . , Rev. Samuel Regestrr, preacher in charge of the Monument street Church, arose and infotmed the. Conference that the buiiding had recently undergone thorough improve ments and cleansing, and iht the members of the Conference who used tobacco, who found they ciuld not pive it up. and who were sitting on the ladies side of the house, should sit on the opposite 6tde, where they would finds number of pittoons for their accommodation, lie sincerely hoped tint 'the ladies side" of the houe would not be soiled. Rev. E. P, Phelps observed that he could not look upon the u?e of tobacco merely as a luxury, for it had its uses; it had done him good. ' He concluded by moving to lay the whole matter on the table, which prevailed not more than twenty-five members voting in the negative. ' , Bishop Waugh said that he could not sec how any member of the Conference could assert good. that the chewing tobacco did him OfT'A most singular robbery took place nt Dunkirk on Friday. A gentleman by the name of FieM. said to belong to the city of New York arrived at Dunkirk on Thursday evening, and took - lodging, at the Loder House. On Friday ; morning he went into the barber's shop to get shaved and took his seat in the 'ehairfor that purpose. "This is all he remembers about it till the expiration of half an hour, when he recovered his consciousness, and found himself robbed of about Si 4200, mostly of notes on the. Chemu&tg Canal Bink.
