EVANSVILXE, IND. -t THURSDAY ..MARCH 25 C3"There is in England an associalioQ whoso object is to discover and open new sources of supply of cotton. They have recently held a correspondence with Lord Clarendon upon the subject of opening the interior trade of Africa,in that part of the country where cotton grows spontaneously and iscultirated in considerable quantities by the natives. The British Consul at Lagos is ordered home for the purpose of communicating personally with the committee of this association, to state to them the many adTantages which that part of Africa holds out for procuring at first a moderate, and J to afterwards a gradually increasing supply of cotton, and other important mattcrs relating to the cultivation and supply of the article; and to submit a plan of operations for an organized agency for

transporting cotton from the interior oflsomo of the nominees might bo to himda8hof cold water a pat of the hand at

Africa to tho seaboard. Tho British cov eminent is readv to co-ODerate with the association in Dromotin their M aV j w as & J t-i MA mm Xm. mmm f fl V C W UAH A A M.ueiuct ana lufuu cotton growing may ue maae one 01 mo agencies of civilizing Africa, and cotton I will be carried to tho negroes instead of bringing them to the cotton. A General, Cleaiusci House, for the redemption of the notes of all ihe country banks in tho States of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania will go into operation in Albany, N. T., on the 5th of April. The notes of all the banks within the circuit of the arrangement will be received at a of oce per cL dis count. The plan receives the support of the country Banks, and will be a most effectual way of giving the people of those States a uniform and sound cur rency like that created in New England' by the Suffolk Bank system. We need such an organization for the Banks in the States of Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois. CO" Accounts from Pittsburgh state that there was less coal ready for ship ment on the opening of navigation this spring than at the same period for many years past. "When navigation did open there wa3 an active demand for coal, and the miners took the advantage of it, to demand a larze advance in Vees. and they are now on a strike at .all the banks on the Monongahela rwer from Pittsburgh to Brownsville. The occur rence is likely to cut short the spring supply of coal and advance the price. The Texas Pacific Railboad. Tho Directors of this road have concluded to give the stockholders a chance to redeem their stock, and have extended the time, for the payment of the delinquent assessment till the 15th of April, on the stock which had been declared forfeited. The deed of trust made to secure some of its old creditors has been cancelled, and the term3 of the charter have been fulfilled, and the work will now be carried forward under the liberal donations of land from th3 State, with energy, and will be ihn flr?t road to roach the Rio Grand if not tte 1 aClllC. Voixkteers fob Utah. The Adjutant-General of Illinios has offered the war Department one or more regiments of mounted volunteers for Utah. Efforts are being made to raise a regiment in this State. Five or six companies are forming, and some of them are nearly full. Capt McGinnis, in Indianapolist has a company completed. Campanies are forming at Louisville, Frankfort, and Lexington, in Kentucky, and before the bill passes Congress, there will be twenty regiments ready to enter the service. The CorBE or thz CtBrjiiT. A Lecompton correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger, writes as follows in regard to the fate of the Kansas question. The prediction of the winter will be fulfilled, that the defeat of the Lccomptonitcs in the House will bo followed by a dissolution of the Cabinet and a reconstruction 01 the Democratic party. It can only be done by tacitly ignoring the past policy of the present Cabinet, and leaving Mr. Buchanan to take tho responsibility of his own measures. It is useless for any one to dogmatize about the result of the Kansas struggle in tho House. The best informed men of those who interest themselves in the matter admit that they are at fault. There are several members who do not know how they are to vote: their course is to depend on circumstances that are uncertain. The friends of tho President's policy aro certain of nothirg, except a protracted struggle, and of danger in any event to the Administration, tho Dcraocra'ao party, and the harmony of the Union. The licomptonites intend to take no step backwards. So with the President and Cabinet, they intend to stand by their measure and sink or swim with it. One vt the Cabinet remarks. "If Lecompton be beaten, there will be no use tor us to stay here.' Tho failure of the measure will lead to a rapture of the Cabinet, and its reconstruction. Perhaps it will also lead to a reconstruction of the Democratic party, upon safer grounds than the Lecompton issue. A Eol Foegebt. A fellow in Cincinna ti went into the country a few days ago, and under the pretence of wishing to purchase a farm, got a copy of the title deeds of one for examination, then . went to tho city, had a mortgage on it, drawn to himself, signed it in the name of the farmer, had it acknowledged, and sent it to the County clerk for record; and with a note for 1,400 dollars, described in the mortgage, and sigaod liko it by himself in the name of tho farmer, he attempted to raise the wind, but the best he was able to do with it, before the forgery was discovered, was to obtain one or two hundred dollar worth of jewelry, by pledging it as collateral. He was arrested and committed.

Apollo Hall Meeting. The Lecompton office holder' "harmony" meeting resulted in a tad disappointment to the cabal of plotters. The rank and file refused, in toto, to submit to the drill exercise, and would not be coaxed nor wheedled into tho ranis. After exhausting all tho per

suasive eloquence that tho Tost Office, the Custom Houso, and the Indian bureau could command, the "hlghfalutin", resolutions seasoned with most extravagant commendations of Free Schools, were lost amid the confusion and nolao which the call for a vote- on them produced. Ex-SberilT Gavitt disconcerted the arrangements of the leaders, by calling for the nominations. He said thej vA Yn nrrrpA tn cnnnArt ttiA Amrwitifl I candidate,; he wished to know who they were, and how they were nominated. As Democrats they have denounced tho Know Nothings for their dark-lantern meeting! midnight caucuses and secret cabals and hero was a Dcmocratio meeting called upon inpport men brought ont by a self -const!tuted clique of office holders, who held their secret conclaves at night, in a printing office, lie proposed to go into a fair and open nom ination of candidates, and as a good Democrat, ho pledged himself to support the ticket at the polls, however objectionable personally. If harmony was to bo restored to tho Deraocratio ranks it must bo effected "turning to tho time honored usages of convictions of plain and fair men to pursue rractices which Democrats havo so loudly and pertinaciously denounced in their opponcnts. To avert this sort or unweicomo discussion, a motion for an adjournment was made, and lost. A motion to nominate was also lost tho candidates themselves voting against it being afraid of tho taint which an endorsement by such a bogus, Lecompton meeting would fix npon them. Tho leaders and speakers in the meeting were all New Charter men, who three weeks ago were its noisy and boistrons advocates; but not a sin gle s viable was lisped in its favor at this time. New Charter advocate, who declared in their wrath, after their defeat in tho Febrnary election, they would renew the conflict, witn oro zea at 100 APri lection, aro now preserving; a very politic silence on tno sub ject in their diaenssions, but are pursuing in secret, with unabated ardor, their original designs. The meeting broke up in confu sion without having adopted anything, to the chagrin and discomfiture of the leaders. ----- Letters from Colonel Johnson. The St. Louis Republican has had the perusal of private letters from Col. Johnson to a friend, in which he says: "He had received no communication from the Government of a later date than the 22d of October, 1857, and justly complains that the mail contractors take more than three months to carry the mails to Utah, when their contract requires them to deliver it there monthly; and he adds: "I send nothing by mail, nor should anything of a public nature be sent otherwise than by express." Notwithstanding the destruction of a part of the train which was loaded with provisions and other supplies necessary for his troops, and in spite of the obstacles which presented themselves, Col. Johnson did not abandon the hope of marching to Salt Lake City without a halt, until after the terrific storm of November. We quote from his letter: "On the 6th of November the march was resumed, and then commenced the storm of snow, and wintry cold, racking the bones of our men, and starving our oxen, and mules and horses, already half starved.— They died on the road, and at our camps, by hundreds, and so diminished were their numbers that from camp to camp, only four or five miles, as many days were required to bring them all up, as it was necessary to give time to rest the animals, now incapable of protracted efforts, and to hunt for food. In this way fifteen days were consumed in making thirty-five miles to this place, the nearest and best place of shelter and fuel for the troops, and shelter and grass for the animals. The struggle, then, amidst snow and Arctic cold (the thermometer at sixteen degrees below zero) was for a place of safety. If any doubt existed before this storm of the propriety of asking the troops on the mountains before us before spring, or the ability to accomplish a march, the destruction amongst our draught animals, the necessity of saving all the oxen left for food, even if capable of further exertion, now dispelled that doubt and solved the question. The storm which Col. Cook encountered on the Sweet Water, and through the South Pass, destroyed more than half of his mules, although they had corn for them. They died from the severity of the cold." Col. Johnson says "he has the satisfaction to say, that the privations of the march were endured by the officers and men without complaint, or, perhaps, I might more justly say, with cheerfulness. The troops are in fine health and condition. The winter thus far has been so rigorous as to prevent often the daily instruction of the troops. They have proved themselves to be hardy enough for any service, a few only—as many as thirty or less have been frost bitten; but now our scouts bivouac, when necessary, in the passes without suffering. The Mormons have declared, as fully as words and actions can manifest intentions, that they will no longer submit to the Government, or to any Government but their own. The people of the Union must now submit to the usurpation of their Territory— to have a Government erected in their midst, not loyal to, or rather not acknowledging any dependence upon, or allegiance to, the Federal Government and what is not less impolitic, and entirely incompatible with our instructions, to allow them to engraft their social organization upon ours, and make it a part of our system, or act with vigor and force to compel them to submit. This is due to the dignity and honor of the Government. I hope every effort will be made to forward the spring supplies early, under a sufficient guard of mounted men, for the guard will be needed, and also to forward the supplies for the rest of the year." ----- Kl Tho Collina' line of ateamers the Atlantic, Baltic and Adriatic, were advertis ed to be sold on the 15th inst., but the sales were postponed until the 1st f April. The Bremen line, consisting of tho Herman and Washington, were to have also been disposed of, but the sale was postponed till financial affairs were in a more favorable condition The New York Herald remarks: i nat at mis moment when tue govern mente of England and France are more ac tively engaged than ever in promoting and sustaining lines of ocean steamers in all directions, so as to monopolize the trade of the world, our government has succeeded in firostrating and destroying all our American iocs of ocean mail steamers, by the niggard ly aud unwise policy which distinguished ine last administration and tho Iat (Jon gresa. Decusk o im Amcsicam Senate. The New York Herald justly remarks: The debates in the Senate become more and more laiiculou and disgraceful from day to day. Not only is every great political question simply used as a peg on which - P - - "TOir lecUODU IUUSQ of either soctioa of the country by the other, but tho party leaders, tho experienced chiefs of the Senate the men to whom, if at all, the country has a right to look for sound Practical counsel and staid moderate wisem seem to have far outstripped the members of the House in the violence, irrelevency and absurdity of their language.

A Melancholy Evk-it. 0 an evening

f last week, a Miss Barnard, the only daughter of a wealthy family in Boston, was standing alone by the parlor fire, arrayed for a fashionable party, waiting the ar rival of a gentleman to eicort her to the scene of gaiety and pleasure, when her light garments caught fire, and w a moment she was enveloped in flames. Before the house was alarmed and holp reached her, she was so badly burnt that she lingered but a few 1 minutes. When the gentleman called to take, her to the party she was corpse. The Boston Courier makes tho following remarks on the melancholy event: A young lady, at tractive In person and manners: in the earliest bloom or vouth. an JJlfc,lolf-0I hope, and health, is summoned suddenly from earth, and bj a fate se fearful that the imagination forbears to dwell upon it. A few minutes of fiery acrony transformed the fair and sweet image of grace and bloom to a lifeless and disfigured frame, from which it is a relief to think that the spirit was re leased. How impressive is the lesson that 6ucu tiagedies teach I Hero was a young lady, guarded and sheltered in every way that the most watchful care could suggest; for whom hundreds would havo risked their lives in broad day; in her father's house; encountering a fate so awful, and nndin none to nelp her in her dread and agonythe proper moment, might have saved her; but tho vigilant eve, the quick hand, were not there; and she was left to die alone. The sharpest weight of physical suffering which the lanaticism of civilized, or tho cruelty of tnesavago man, can lay upon the sensitivo frame was homo by this fair young creature, who had never before known one touch of the thorns of life. What a sense, of tho uncertain tenure on which all earthly blessings are nciddocsso tearful an occurrence give us I Into the sacred circle within which is gath ered tho grief of her parents, of the housenoia to wmcn sne belonged, we, daro not enier. tsJ The great struggle and tho tedious debates upon tho Kansas question aro ended in the Senate. The Lecompton Constitution was carried by a larger vote than some of its supporters expected. The Northern men who voted for it were Allen of Bhodo Island, Bright and Fitch of Indiana, Jones of Iowa, Wright and Thompson of New Jersey, and Biglcr of Fennsyl vania, making nine in number, all of whom voted in violation of the almost unanimous publio opinion in the States they represent. The iniquity of the roeasnro is not more discreditable to tho Sen a to and offensive to the country, than the self contradiction ot the amendment by which its passage wes made easy to the Northern dough-faces. The records of the U. S. Senate bear no evidence so mortifying of its debasement, and want of regard for its own character, as he following declaration added to tho bill for the admission of Kanaa: "Nothing in this act shall bo construed to abridge or infrinje tho right of the people asserteu in tue Kansas i;ontilnlioi to alter, reform or abolish, their form of goveanmcnt. n such a manner as they may think proper. Congress hereby disclaiming, any authority to intervent oj declare a construction of the Constitution, except to see that it is republi can in form, and not in conflict with the Constitution of tho United states." In the same sentence in whieh it is posi tively and authoratively declared what shall bo an arbitrary construction of a State Con stitution, tho Senate disclaims all "authorty to declare a construction of tho Constitu tion," A more glaring piece of self-stulti fication never disgrueed a county party cau. cus. It is the sadest proof of tho degrada tion of our Legislative councils and decline in the character of American statesmen, we have yot had. The Lecompton Constitution in all its influences and effects has been to the country a Pandora's box ot evils, without tho gift of hope at the bottom. Stbakqk DzviLorx emts. The St. Louis papers rclato the following mysterious and suspicious circumstances: George H. Lamb, a hotel keeper at Mendota, 111., married a daughter of a Mr. Stafm 1 1 r. 1 .1 M I iora, at wnincy, on tne zin oi ovemocr. After the marriage they did not live together, but Lamb returned to Mendota, with the ostensible purpose of disposing of his property, io uuy a noma lor nimscii ana wiie. ua wie 22J of November. Lamb informed his wife and family that he had made arrangements for their future home at Memphis, whither they would proceed, if it wonl J bo satisfactory to her. Mr. Lamb consented, and on the 24th, they set out for St. Louis, where they proposed to take a boat for Memphis. Twenty days aflcrwaids, Mr. Stafford not having heard from his daughter, was surprised to see Lamb who returned his wife's clothing. Lamb told a long story about his wife having been taken sick when they reached Mem phis, gave a pathetic description of her death the names of tho minister and physicians who attended her her funeral, her gravo, Ac. Nothing occurred to throw doubts u pon Lamb's story for a short time. But on the SOth of December, he was married again, which, taking place so soon after the death of his first wite occasioned much talk; out of the talk grew suspicion that all was not right. At length Mr. Manord determined to satisfy himself with regard to the truth of Lamb's story. In answer to letters to Memphis he round that his daughter had never been there; there were no clergymen or physicians there by the names given by Lamb. He went to St. Louia, where he learned that his daugh ter and husband had lived about thrco weeks i nsomo sink of polution, and after which she had in all probability been murdered. Lamb has been arrested. TnE Rev. Dr. Daily ix TBocatt. We learn that Dr. Wm. M. Daily, President of the btate University at Ulooraington, received a severe cnstigation at the hands of Dr. Murphy of Rlooraingtons. The fact a re about these, so far as we have been ublo to learn them: Dr. Murphy and his lady, though not members of any church, were favorable to the Methodist persuasion. At a revival in the Christian church in Bloomington. Dr. Murphy and his lady became satisfied in their own mind., that the Christian church held the truo doctrines of the Bible, and expressed a determination to unite with said church at some future time. On hearing of this determination. Dr. Daily proceeded to the house of Dr. Murphy, in order, if possible, to induce Mrs. Murphy to chancre her notion and become a member of the Methodist church. Finding his entreaties unavailing, he used some harsh language to Mrs. M. Dr. M. being in an adjoining room, overheard the abusive language, rushed into the room and gave Dr. Daily a sound drubbing with his cane. If the facts are as we heard them, the Dr. did not receive a lick amiss. Etdford Indtptndent. EST The District Court of New Orleans have given judgment against tho proprietors of the St. Charles Hotel for property stolen from one of their guests. The defendants plead that they had exonerated themselves by notices posted in all rooms of the house that they would not be responsible for property losL The coart decided that their liaability was fixed by law, and they could not limit it by any pablio aetice, defining their respontibility. They have no niht tore quire a traveler to deposit his money, watch, etc., with their clerk. It is their dnty to keep honest servants, and exert vigilance ever all persons coming into tho hotel, as guests or otherwise.

As pert health is the greatest blessing that we can enjoy, without which all other blessings are of little conse quence, we deem It of great mportance to point out the way for you to enjoy it. The bowels must be kept in a state by which they are eaabled to carry off the useless matter; they are the main channel which nature has appointed to carry everything that is unnecessary. And it is impossible to tell what a large amount of sickness has been caused by constipation, or costiveness; in other words by not keeping the bowels J-egu lar: it is the main road to all diseases: It is the cause of unnatural Irritation to the mucous, or lining mem bran es of tho bowels. Having lost their natural strength they cannot object to what is required of them. nence, theboireli become inflamed, and unless you find a speedy relief, a thousand other complaints are ever ready to drag you threugh amiserable and wretch ed life. Such medicines must be given as will cleanse the stomach and bowels, and restore their natural strength. To accomplish this there Is no compound so valuable as these Pills;all other medicines sin a to utter insignificance when compared to them; it seems as though the Author of Nature had designed them for this as well as other complaints. From two to firt pills a day will increase strength and appetite, and cleanse the stomach and intestines from whatever is injurious.

Many millions of Bottles have been used, and It has given better satisfaction than any article erer before tried for similar purposes. It possesses a specific power erer inflammations, and chronic or accidental derangement of the Muscles, Joints, Ligaments or Skin. It is a source of great pleasure to feel that we have been the humble means of relieving such an immense amount of suffering, and have caused many thousands to " leap for jey," because tieir pains were relieved, their wounds healed and their stiff joints made elastic. Unscrupulous parties, regardless of their obligations to ourselves or the public, are engaged In attempting to introduce a spurious and miserable article tr una a a both t hams, by representing it to be the same or similar. 3F Be on your guard!
