MAKC1I 26 Coal nud Factories. Tho annual consumption of coal in Indianapolis is fonnd to be 350,000 bush els. In this city our distilleries and a few of our largest manufactories con sunie as much annually as tho entire city of Indianapolis. As proof of the .rapid increase of fcteam power in this city we are informed by our coal men that the quantity of coal taken by our manufac tories is double what it was one year ago; and there are nsw enterprises begun and in contemplation that will more than double the present consumption in another year. These facts speak volutnes for the progress of our city in man ufacturing and mechanical industry. Looking at some manufacturing statis tics of England, we find that the cost of coal at Manchester and Bristol, in the midst of the English coal field, is more thmn S3 rer ton. Here we have a coal of a superior quality, which is delivered at the door of the manufactory for $1 90 per ton less thaa two thirds of the cost of the same article on the most favored spot in England With food at less than half price with power one third cheaper and all the raw materials at 20 or 30 per cent less cost, why shall j we not ere long be able to cut rival'England in all the products of the work shop and manufactory. Can any ration al man doubt that the period is rapHly approaching when the Lower Ohio will be the seat of the grandest manufacturing enterprises in the world? Genera tions fifty years hence will learn with astonishment how little appreciation, we of the present day, had of our local resources. The Religious Interest in this city continues to widen and deepen, and seems to be reaching all classes of soci ety. The Locust street and iDgle stre aieiuoaist congregations are noiaing a series of meetings every night in the former church, "with a prayer meeting every morning, commencing at nine o'clock. The two Presbyterian churches continue their services, alternating from one church to the other,-with the prayer meetinz at eizht o.clock as heretofore. Yesterday morning the vine street church was nearly filled, and the serv ices were exceedingly solemn and im pressive. A stranger from New York addressed the audience and gare an in teresting account of the progress of the awakening in Chicago. This evenin public preaching may be expected in the Lev. Mr. McCarer's church on Second street, and in the Methodist church on Locust street. It will be interesting to those who are engaged in carrying on these meetings in this city to know that the Reformation as it is called is still progressing on, and'our exchanges are full of accounts of meetings held in different sections of the country. The conversions are almost numberless, and there are no indications that the interest has begun to abate in any of the places where the work has been carried on. A gentleman who has traveled through fifteen counties North, of the Ohio and Mississippi Kail road, in Illinois and In diana, says tha appearance of tho wheat fields is very favorable. The two most tryin? months are over, and a very largo jielJ of wheat is likely to be had thisscasoa. The fields between Lasalle and ßloomington, and farther South, from Ceatralia to Vincenncs and Washington, Indiana, arc particularly green and well covered. A large portion- of the old crop of wheat is still in the hands of tho farmers, and a disposition is evinced to accept the present ruling rates, which is causing great activity in trade over tho whole country Equally favorable Otounts are given of the appearance of the wheat fields in Western Illinois, Iowa and Missouri. Tin fields look most beautiful; tho wheat is well set, and so flourishing that many will pasture it. The breadth planted is large, and if no bad luck intervenes, will yield an immense crop. Ocr Mails. Un 'Wednesday night we received no Eastern mail in consequenco of the failure of the traia on tho Ohio and Mississippi road to reach Vinccnnes before the time of departure of tho train on the Evansville road. These failures havo occurred once or twice a week of late, and appear to be growing in frequency. By. theia net only oar own community are delayed in their Eastern correspondence, but all the country for which this is the distributing point, up and down the river, suffer serious inconvenience and loss. We see no good reason for tho rigid adherence ta a certain, minute for the de parture of the Evansville train from Vit. c-nes, whether the mail has reached there or not. Our train has no connections to make, and a delay of twenty or thirty minutes would be of blight inconvenience to its passengers, compared with the serious incon venience and loss occasioned to the whole community by thefailare of the principal mail that comes to our post office. It is within the discretion of the superintendent or, ccr tainly, within the power ot the directors to remedy this evil J57The Levee presented quite a lively appearance yesterday morning, a large nurn ber of persona having assembled to witness the passing of thj steamer Diana, Laving understood that sic was on a race with tho Baltic. The latter Btoamer went tip at fcix o'clock. The Diana pa.-ed up about tight. 57" Tho second engineer of tho Scioto No. 2, hearing that some ono was attempting to tret his situation, asked leave cf his superior to knock tho intruder down, once or twice, which h i did, on obtaining pcrmis&ion. On the same day.'two of the deck hands on the Fanny Bullitt, had a set-to on tho levee, in which, one of them received ft evero cut over .he eye.

From New Oeliaxs. "We are indebted to I

tho elegant steamer Antelope for full files of down river papers. Business at New Or leans was activo and tho weather delightful. Tho trial of Blackwood for tho murdor 0f Wright in August last, was in progre bofore tho District Cmirt. Tho tmrtiea were ii i i .vi .i I " 1 the trial excites an intenso interest in the city. Blackwood assaulted v ri ntr en PR y f nrAVA'itinn Ml W hi W.lin-hoase door, and after knocking him down twice, stabbed him with abowie knife, severing tho heart from tho apex to the base und killing him instantly Wright fell and expired at tho feet of his wife just as she rushed to tho door to shield him. It was un awfully bloody deed and caused a feeling of horror at tho time of it? occurrence. . The public interest in tho trial throngs the Court House with anxious listen crs. Wright was a small and feeble man, in tho last stages of consumption. Hi assailt7 a ant was a strong athletio young man. An attempt is made to prove that Wright was armed, and had drawn a knifo before he was stabbed. But tho priucipal witnesses for tho State, who saw the act, doclaro that Wright made no resistance aue qu resismuvo. Tho Legislature of Louisiana adjourned sine die on the ISth inst. Among their last acts, was one declaring dogs to bo property and making it a felony to steal or Rill them. St. Tacl's Climen. We learn that the congregation of St. Taul's Church, under the pastora! care of tho Kcv. Mr. Wilbor have, within tho last week, raised the handsome I sum of $1,500 among tho occupants of tho pews in that church, to pay off ull tho. ha- I bilities of tho Society. This removes at once an old and troublesome aeoi mat uns ueeu hancrinir over them lor years. This relief from an oppressive obligation will infuse a new spirit into the feelings and views of tho Society, and we hope to see their c Jifice re paired and made an ornament to ;ho city. The liberality displayed by many of the sub scribers to this lund is highly creditable to them as citzens, and we hope tho noble pub lic spirit they have displayed will not be limited to their church, but now that the heart has been opened, they will bestow their munificence upon other worthy public insti tntions, some of which aro lingering for tho want of a liberal support. Among the most generous contributors, we have heard the name of Charles Viele, named as a subscriber for $500; Chas. Babcock for $200; Henry C Gwathney, $200; l'ctcr Slurp, $200; C. Bus sell Bement, $100; Z. II. Cook, 50; Dr. Walker, $50; Dr. Keller, $50. A Terrible Accident happened at Lou isvillo a few days ago, on the steamer John Raine, for bly impressing us with tho danger of carrying revolvers. A merchant named S. B. Williams, from Danceyville, Tenn., sorrc forty miles back of Memphis, who had been for 8oodi ond wa on " return homo, purchasing a small bill in that city, was in the barbershop washing himself, hen a pistol exploded in his pocket, the ball striking him in the throat about an inch above the beast bone, and lodging in the back part of his neck, from which position it had not been removed at tho time the steamer left. It appears that the pitol was in his pocket, and muzzlo up that in rising from a stooping position, the hammer had caught against the edge of tho wash trough, and had been cocked, and in stooping again to wash, it had been suddenly thrown down upon tho cap. fjfTVe know thfl T.nr.nrntonit li-ivn tried to emasculate tho Democratic party of all its manly principles, but we were not aware they had denied its sex till the follow ing resolution was passed at the Apollo Hall meeting: Jitsol ted. That the Democracy is now as sue has ever been, the ration of education: that wo are proud of the admirable system of pud lie schools established in Indiana under Democratic administration, and we point to thtim as one of tho noblest achievements of our party; that wo pledge ourselves to extend tho blessings of intelligence and liberal education, whenever our party has the ascendency; that we recognize, m the diffusion or knowledge among the people, tho surest guarantee of the future success ot Democratic principles. aiCRDtB. The Uannelton Importer says, Tcter Doclcr, a German, living near Troy, in that county, committed a murder on Tues day last, by stabbing an old. lady named Sweitzcr, in her side, with a pocket knife. kn'fe rnctrated her lungs and stomach and proved fatal -in a lew hours. N. Murks, Esq.. held the inquest on Wednesday, at which the above facts were elicited. Doelcr was to have been examined before Equirc Marks on Wednesday night, but made his escape before tho examination commenced. The officers are in pursuit of him and hud traced him to the house of a German living in the back part of Hancock county, 'Ken tucky. Trees, Shrubbery. In passing around the city, we regret to see so great a scarcity of flowers, evergreens, shrubbery, fcc. Noth ing renders a city so pleasant ns a profusion of shrubbery. Flowers deck tho Paradise of the religion of all nations; and our earth is most like tho Paradise of God, when most we cultivate flowers. Flowers area delight to the strong; they soothe the sick; are even a comfort to the dying. - As the spring is now fairly opened, let us see a praiseworthy spirit of cmulaticn on the part of our citizens es pecially tho ladies in this partict lar. The spring and summer report of fashions for gentlemen' wear represent, by far, the most sensible, comfortable and ele gant style that has been introduced into this country for many years. Call at Mr. Lyon on First street, and examine his fashion plate, and also glance through his largo and splendid stock of fine goods, which ho is now prepared to make np into fashionable gar ments for any reasonable price. 37"Encrirctic efforts are being made in Eoston, Mass., to collect $10,000, to be awarded in premiums of $2,000, 1,500, $1,000, fcc., to the fire companies throwing the first, second and third highest streams of water, tl trough 400 feet of nose.

i"oc "'r rT - - Kow. whcn office to bo lost or won, the samo men aro most ardent advocates for raising money and giving it to the schools. Such sudden changes of opinion aro 6uspic ious. The people aru not simple enough, to bo culled by euch false and hypocritical pre tences. These lovers of olheo can't pull the woolfover tho eyes of voters so easily as they imagine, nor can plain honest men bo jug gled out of their votes by tho pretended ne cessity of harmonizing the party. If tho Democrats are all in favor of supporting tho Frco Schools, no aro their opponen , and there is tbercforo no breach in cither party to heal; for tho support of the Schools is the only issue. If there be not some ulterior ob ject to gain, there is no occasion for any division among citizens of all shades of po- ...... ,, . . laical opinions. Thts extreme anxiety about the harmony of the party uliows there is a diflcrenco of opinion greater than appears upon the face of the pleadings. I asked ono of these New Charter converts, if ho was in favor of Free Schoohf He answered yes, but not as they aro now constituted. What pan would he adopt, I asked Ho replied, he saw no necessity of supporting bchoois at tho public expense to cducato the children of mcn wh0 WCre ablo to school their own farmlie. He would cetablisi. public schools for the poor children oi men wno coma no; pay tho tuition of their own offspring. He wculd establish Charity Schools, whoso in mates would bo classed by themselves and wear tho badee of "Charity Scholars." I asked him how many laboring men, with any self respect, or affection for their children, would degrado them by sending them to such a school, and allow them to become objects of contempt and derision to their richer companions. This man is a Lccompton Democrat and a most vociferous advocate just now, of what ho calls "Common Schools." Euthisopinion and mine differ very much in regard to what our 1 ubhe Schools should bo and there may bo a greater difference in the i leas of these pretended friends and the real sup porters of tho schools than many ot,us suppoe. Let us know what they really mean by supporting tho Free Schools? Their Frco Schools and ours nujy be very different insti I f iif i Ana lUblVll-l Tho only safety to ..the schools is in the election of mcn to our council whose opinions aro fully known and havo been well tested. Let us take only those who w.cro warm supr f'Ulfoitt ntifs; care whether they aro RepuVWalJ:or Demo crats, liut apply tho test to- very landidato for councilman, and learn whether he has supported or opposed tho Old Charter; if ho has opposed it, let us "spot" him, whatever his present professions may be. Don't put any faith In new converts, who havo been suddenly changed by tho approach of a new election. The managers of tho Apollo Hal meeting were all New Charter men, a few weeks ago; but they aro strenuous advocates of the Old '.:ie just now. But tho cloven foot is very visible. Ono ardent Lccomp ton Democrat declares his intention to sup port a rabid Enow Nothing in his ward, beaM0 U WM Jis,Ixwca t0 be libcrul5 but tLftt jwiuw Aiukinug euiuiiunie in n cirenuous opponent of tho Old Charter, and Free Schools ho is therefore the favorite of the Lccompton leaders. These straws show how the wind blows. When the leader who tells you in the same breath that the only enthtiMSMn ho ever felt was in favor of popular education in Free Schools, and then says ho is going to vota lor their bitterest opponent, I think there is 1? . . if. ?. reason to ui&irust ma tsiuccniy. MAKIiLE HALL. A Scounirei. Wuo has Received Unde served Praise. We, in common wiih al most every press in tho country, bestowed tho highest commendations upon what was rcprcsentcd to have been a noblo and disinorestcd act of liberality, in Mr. Charles Bodman, of Cincinnati, who was raid to havo relinqnished a fortune of J80,C00, bequeathed him by a relative in Baltimore a few month ago, to some poor relatives; it was also Buid he had voluntarily mannmitted two or three valuable slaves belonging to the be quest. The following statement exhibits the gentleman in a very different light, and will subject him to the execrations instead cf the praise of every upright man. Tho following letter was received a few days ago at Cincinnati Irom Lexington, Ken tucky: Day cefore yesterday I happened to be at one of the negro jails in tui city. The pro prietor asKca ate to waiK up stairs to seea;me negro gils he had just bought of a Cincinnati tnntleman. We found, iti the room, three negro girls, one a remarkably beautiful, extremely modot, and very intellectual mulatto girl. When we went in, this girl seemed ed astounded when she was intormed by the trader that lie had bought them (the price was apiece.; Mio exclaimed: "Itcannot bo possible P Bot when sho was told that such was tho fact, she told the following story: They belonged to a gentleman in Haltimore, who recently di:d, learing his property to lus nephew, in Cincinnati. This man went on to Haltimore to take possession of tho estate, lie told these three gitls that his purpose was to tako them to this city to liberate them. lie showed them the papers of liberation, (which it was possible were genuine,) and she says he was commended in the newspapers lor his generosity and kindness to the girls, in proposing to take them to Cincinnati and providing for them. They left Baltimore in full con fidence that thc:r destination was Cincinnati, and that thev were free. But at Muysville they all lauded, and came immediately to Lexington. The poor girl said it was a hard and cruel case; that if lie bad made it known in Baltimore that they were for sale, he could have easily sohl them there. She finally said that all sho had to ask of hint was to give licr hercertihcateof church mem bership, which he had in lis pocket. Comment upon such cruel and hellish de ccption is unnecessary. Iu a slave State a regular negro-trader who would bo guilty ot such conduct, would bo scorned by every man he met. t5TA communication to tho Cincinnati Commercial says that a firm in Lafayette presented a large amount of tho notes of the Branch Bank of the Statoat Lafayetto, on th 19th demanding gold or Its equivalent, which was refused, upon which $500of tho note&wore protested by a Notary. Public, and are now in the hands of Attorneys at Indianapolis, with instructions to bring suit against said Bank, to wind her up as in case of insol vency, according to tho tenor of, her charter. The balance of tho notes aro held under seal for interest and damages, according to law.

Tho Hon. O. II. Smith, in his reminiscen

ces of Indiana, makes tho following com ments upon the character and influence of tho press in Indiana His remark that the character of a newspaper is an index of tho character of tho people among whom itcireulates, though just, as a general maxim will not bo admitted as npplicablo to all communities. There are prcses supported by the plunder from tho public crib, whose course is more offensive and execrable to the people at home, than they are to. intelligent strangers. Tho tribnto paid to tho veteran editors Messrs. Gregg aud Ilolloway, is but just: -"While New York has had her eminent edi tors, Indiana too bus had hei 6. It i suid to bo invidious to draw distinctions, whero all have lone thvir duty, luduna owes much, verv much, to the Dress, to the enlightened ediu.rial corns, in the formation, of tho moral standard of society. If you will hhow mo the newspaper, I will give you the character of the people anion? whom it circulates. It is not true that but littlo attention is paid to what ar rears in the papers. No class of our citizens occupy a higher position of reonsibility than tho editorial corps. They wield a Powerful influence lor weal or for woe. 1 the press is vicious it ministers to the worst of human vices, and fills secietj with every species of licentiousness and wickeduess. A press controlled by tho unprincipled and vicious, is a cur&o io any people; while the press that maintains a high moral stundard is ono of the most powerful instrumentalities that was ever brought to bear upon society, hi forming it upon the true basis of intelligence, morality and religicn. 4,I leel under great obligations to the con ductors ot the Indiana press, lor the lugn moral tone they havo intnscd into their columns, and to nono more than to tho veteran editors whose names stand at the head of this article. I have known them both long and well. 1 have seen them, read them, heard them. I might speak of Mr. Gregg as a mem ber of our .Legislature, and as a member of our Constitutional Convention, where the high order ot his talents placed bun m the front ranks. I iniirht Muk of .Mr. Holloway as a member of Congress where he stood leservedly high: but I choose rathor to place them in my reminiscences, in the more im portant pouitions ol editois oi newspapers, dispensing information, intelligence and morality, among tho masses. It -is there that their lights have shown the most valu able to society. They are' both, like Mr. Greeley and Mr. Brooks, in tho meridian of life, in the midst ot their usefulness devoted to the interests of our Mate. Long may they live to contribute their inrlucncu to the good order of our citizens. Tiik VoLrNTEEK Ijjll.

As perfee health is the greatest blessing that we can enjoy. without which all other blessings are of little conse quence, we deem it of grr.it mportance to point out the way for you to enjoy it. The bowels must be kept in a state by which they are enabled 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 a hat a large amount of sickness has been caused by constipation, or costiveness; in other words by not keeping the bowels regu lar: it is the main road to all diseases: it is the cause of unnatural irritation to the mucous, or lining memIsranes of the bowels. Having lest their natural strength they cannot object to what is required of them. Hence, the bowels liccome inflamed, and unless you find a speedy relief, a thousand other complaints are ever ready to drag you thrnugh a miserable and wretched 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 thermedicinessina to utter insignificance when compared ta them; it seems as though the Author of Nature had designed them for this as well as other complaints. From two to firspills a day will increase strength and appetite, and cleanse the stomach and Intestines from whatever is injurious. Pr.

Many millions af Bottles have been used, and it has given bettersatisfaction than any article ever before tried for similar purposes. It possesses a specific power over inflammations, and chronic or accidental derangement of the Muscles, Joints, Ligaments or Skin. It is a source of great pleasure to frei that we have been the humble means of relieving such an immense amount of suffering, and have caused many thousands to " leap for jy," hecause their 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 under another kamk, by representing it to be the same or similar. fJ7" Be oa your guard!
