''Old Kxox" All IinaiT. Tin? wideawake Republicans of Knox County are hard at work, and making good headway against the spoils-loving Democracy, A friend just from there informs us that Third Party or Hell and Everett men are very scarce. The old Fillmore men up there are determined not to lose their votes iu 1860 as they did in' 1856. Our informant made some inquiry about Judge Law's strength amoiisrst the old Whim. lie pnnld nnlv h,.;lr of tw0 in Vincennes who l .vored bis election , and one of them was .onsciencesuiitten and about to declare against the Judge. He thought the Democratic nominee had been entirely too changeable in his politics to be depended on these "troubloos times;" besides, .he Judge had all his life been fattening at the public crib, and he thought it about time that somebody else should have a chance at it. The prairies of Illinois, our friend sas, are ablaze for Old Abe. Lincoln. The lllinoisans say h can carry the State against all opposition. A very prominent gentleman who is traveling constantly through Southern Illinois, told our informant that the feeling iu favor of Lincoln was growing rapidly in Egypt. Knox couuty is given up by many democrats as sure for the Republicans. Ratification ITeeting. There was an enthusiastic mass meeting at Vincennes on Saturday, June Hth, to ratify the nomination of Lincoln and Hamlin. Col. Albert G. Sloo (who lately left the Democratic party) was President, aud H. M. Smith aud W. H. H. Terrell were Secretaries. While the committee on resolutions were out, Hon. J. W. Gordon of Indianapolis dei livered a telling speech in vindication of Republican principles and in exposition of Democratic State and National misrule. Appropriate resolutions were passed afI ter which James G. Jones, Esq.. of this city, , delivered one of his argumentative and efj fcctive speeches, which was convincing and ; entertaining. The Gazette of the 13Ui, in which we find an account ot the meeting which we here condense, snys that a mil liberty pole was raised on the day of the ratification ipeeting, bearing to the breeze in triumph a , . .. a w"11"" "'r prefceutea to the Lincoln and Hamlin Club by the Republican ladies ol Vincennes.
Time Common Pleas .lull gestilp. We publish in another place a letter trom Mr. James ii. Campbell, of Slarrs Township, Posey conn'y, jQ which he denies having written an urticle signed "Pro Bono Publico, " published in the Journal of the 11th inst. We willingly give his communication a place in our columns, as we wish to place no man iu a false light with his party either directly or indirectly. With the opinion expressed by Mr. C, that newspaper correspondents have no right to express theni3elve3 in regard to the candidates for Common Pleas Judge when no nomination is made, we beg leave to differ. The office is one of the most important to the people that they assist in filling, and it i3 eminently right and advisable that the qualifications and fitness of aspirants should be thoroughly discussed. Judge Pitcher's friends are entirely willing that this rule should apply to him, knowing that no exception can be taken to him on the score of ability or rectitude. These constitute the qualifications necessary for the office. A uiisconcepiiou has arisen from the fact that 'Pro Bonos'' communication was ostensibly written in " Marrs Township, Posey County." Thi3 very naturally is used to fasten the authorship on oue of the delegates from that township. It does not neccessarily follow, because the communication was so superscribed, that it was written by one of the delegates there. If a delegate in ;,ny other portion of Posey county, or of the District, sees proper to rebel against the selfiltl aims of the Vanderburgh Couuty Court House Clique, aud to put h'13 protest into print, he bus, for his own security Irom discovery, and in order to "cover his tracks," according to the rules of strategy, a perfect right to date his effusions lrom whatever locality he sees proper. In this instance, Maris Township, Posey County, happened to be chosen. Any other township in either of the four counties would have answered fully as well. We think our correspondent would have been very unwise, under the circumstances, to have given hireal place of residence. We cannot wonder, that "Pro Bono'' should desire to avoid the punishment'' that a disclosure of his name would inflict upon him. A residence for bim, iu3ide his party, would, if he were identified, hedecidly unhealthy. The Court House Clique c in brook anything better than rebellion against the decrees of their packed caucuses and conventions. Our correspondent would be entitled to praise if he had the moral courage to come out altogether "from amongst the foul party," but he fees proper to remain iu it in tlie faint hope of a change for the better. This ho has a perfect right to df). It is altogether with his own conscience. He is certainly entitled to praise for the small decree of independence he olreudy exhibits, in preferring a qualified political opponent for the vitally-important office in question, rather than to pive it out ns apartian reward to a getillemau who, although respectable and clever, i not competent to fill the position with satisfaction to the people whose dearest interests are dependent on its proper administration. Out fur DeBruler. The Vincennes Ouzete of the 13th comes out in favor of Judge DeBruler for Congress The Gazette shows conclusively that JudgeDel I. is the man wanted by the entire Opposition of the District to bett Judge Law with. We heartily concur with our Vincennes coteuip.irary in the opinion- expressed. Judge DeUruler M the man for the times, and we do nut believe he will disregard the calls in the shape of personal solicitations and written requests which have been aud will be presented to him, from every portion of the District. To use the language of the Gazette, " the voice of the District is unanimous in his favor.-' We take the following eulogy of Judge DeBruler from the Gazette: He is enthusiastic in his support of Lincoln and Hamlin, and will make a most vigorous canvass, and with every prospect of success. The Judge is emphatically a man of the people, baviug, by his own energy and talent, built liimself up. His early life was oue of toil, and he sympathises with the laborer and mechanic, for the reason that he knows what labor is. He has not been rocked in the lap of wealth, nor has he basked in the sunshine of aristocracy. lie has not been a recipient of Government patronage, nor has he pensioned off upon the Government the whole or any part of his family. What he is, he has made himself; unaided by Government patronage, or by the influence of wealthy or powerful relations, he has built up for himself a reputation and standing which makes h:m to-day the prominent mtu of the Pocket District. He will make a most efficieut canvass, and the signs of tlie times indicate clearly that he can be elected Then we say let DeBruler be announced; let bini commence the canvass at once; let him, in his forcible and convincing manner, expose tbe corruptions of the parly in power and the demagoguery of his opponent, and if the 1st Congressional District is not redeemed from the thrallom of Locofocoism, then we will be content to say we know nothing at all about the people. To City Slbscriiiers. Our Carrier-boys desire us to request subscribers who pay by the week for the Daily, to have the chinge ready for tbem on Saturday mornings when they call for their pay. It is very inconvenient for them sometimes to make change, and frequently consumes valuable ti : i On a few occasions, the carriers have had spurious money and broken bank bills passed on them. Any person who will impose on and cheat a boy in this manner has no soul and deserves public execration. We hope no one has ever done this knowingly.
Exposed at Vast. The assailant of Judge DeBruler, in the editorial columns of the Enquirer, has at length been brought to light ; and by his own tacit confession and the acknowledgment of the Enquirer, we are made aware of the fact that a former editor of the Journal is the individual in question. This is a very important point gained. Iu order to make a controversy interesting, we like to knov the writer against whom our pen is directed. A rare spectacle is presented in this new editoral combination. A former editor of this paper, who a few months ago was at swords' points with the Enquirer, now is virtually one of its editors, and as that paper says, agrees with it in sentiment. In 1858 he was advocating Judge Hovey's election with all his might, on popular sovereignty grounds and because of his opposition to the Administration. Now he and Judge Hovey are cheek by jowl together, sustaining the Administration and the Lecomptouites in a course of policy which gives a death-blow to popular sovereignty and stultifies every popular sovereigntyman who sustains that policy. In 1858, the uew editor of the Enquirer was denouncing Judge Law in the most y.iplent language, and charging him with all manner of inconsistencies and political offenses. Now he is giving " aid and comfort'' to this same Judge Law, and incidentally assisting in his election to Congress. And as if to render his political degradation more appareut, he applies those epithets " Black Republicans," "Abolitionists'to the party to which Judge DeBruler belongs, the use of which by Judge Law in 1858, he pronounced a disgrace to the user, a mortification to his friends, and of too paltry aud offensive a character to be noticed. This rarjr patriotic, high-minded, and consistent writer aims at an influence over the minds of Constitutional-Union men, by pretending lo be a warm friend of John Bell. Yet he has assumed the post of editorial contributor to one of" the most unconscionable Loeofoco papers in the United States, and is now doing all in his power through its columns to fasten on the country the destructive dynasty which is crushing the life out of our free institutions. Truly, in him the Bell men have a beautiful specimen of a "guide, philosopher, and friend.'' We rejoice that we have " unearthed " him, and that the people of " The Pocket" know who this new Southern light is, who comesup out of the cotton fields of Tennessee and Mississippi, and the cypress swamps of Arkansas; to enlighten them, and tell them how to vote. His principles, so carefully firmed for the Southern market, he has brought a little too far North to be in demand. They are dead stock on his hands, and are likely to remain so, unless he can use them to advantage in the new political partnership he has entered into.
John Bell's Prospects. We copy an article from the Memphis Avalanche, which contains some very correct calculations in regard to the result, should the election of President be thrown into tbe House, aud that of Vice President into the Senate. We do not reprint this article out of any ill-will toward Mr. Bell, but because we wish to convince our Bell and Everett friends that the cause of their champions is utterly hopeless, either before the people or in Congress, should the election he thrown there. The argument of the Avalanche is founded on known tacts, and cannot be disproven. Xow what course is left for the Bell men? What are they to do to get rid of the odious and destructive oligarchy which reigns at Washington '.' Why, all turn in with a good will, make common cause with the Republicans and others represented at Chicago, and help to elect Abraham Lincoln the frieod and defender of Henry Clay; the advocate of his doctrines; the working man's frieud : the able statesman, the upright citizen, the Iconett man. Rally, old Whigs, and assist iu carrying I out the greatest reform of the age. Qmh in ii utctitf't . Black Hawk Mills, Posey Co., Ind. 1 June 13th, 18C0. EniTous or Evansville Journal: In J your Journal of June 1 1th, 18C0, you pub- j lish a communication dated " Posey County, j Marrs Township, June 9, 18G0," aud signed I " Pro Bono Publico." The writer states, among other things, that he was a delegate to the Princeton Convention, and leaves the ! inference that be was a delegte from j " Marrs Township." It is to this part of his communication 1 j object. The publication is evidently in- ! teuded to injure Ben. Stinson, Esq., and places the delegates from Marrs Township in personal collision with Mr. Stinson. I was a delegate to the Convention from Marrs Township, and John L. Brenner and Geo. S. Koonce, Esqs., were the others. I have j not seen these gentlemen since the publication, but trom the style I am very certain , that neither Brenner nor Koonce wrote the : communication; nor am I its author, either ' directly or indirectly. nne writing, 1 will say, as no nomination for Judge of the Court of Common Pleas was made at Princeton, I think newspaper correspondents would do well to leave that question to Judge Pitcher and his opponent, whoever be may be. One word more : I advise uPro Bono Publico," when he writes again, to place at the bead his true place of residence and over his own proper name. Vours, respectfully, Jambs B. Campbell. See Letter List, and other Nes Advertisements, on Fourth page.
NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. BY THE E. A W. LINE. Exclusively for the Journal. COSURKSSlOXA L. j Washington, June 14, p. m. House. The Senate's resolution extending the session to the 25th was received and referred to the committee of ways and means. The remainder of this and several other sentences are lost, being illegible. Mr. Colfax moved that the House adhere to the Housq Homestead Bill, and gave a synopsis of the House and Senate bills. They differed, he said, in five prominent features. As regards tbe persons who are to be the recipients of lands brought within the view of the law; the price; and polic3-of 1 the Government as to compulsory land ; sales. First as to pensions, the House bill indues all citizens over 21 years old, and I all who have declared their intentions. The Senate's excludes all but heads of families, cutting oft" all young men over 21, a large and valuable portion of our popu- ' tion. Second, the House bill includes in its benefits all pre-emptors now on public ; lands. The Senate bill excludes them, but j allows them two years to buy their lands at ; the government price. Under the Senate
bill, pre-emptors must abandon or pay for it. Third, the House bill applies to all land subject to pre-emption, which covers all public lands not reserved for special purposes, whether surveyed or not. The Senate bill applied only to those remaining after a public land sale, and the speculators had had their pick. Land warrant speculators after a land sale, could acquire a title at once. Fourth, the House bill requires ten dollars for a quarter section. The Senate bill requires !?40 for a quarter section twice as costly as tbe graduated lands in Missouri. Fifth, the Senate bill compels tbe President to expose the public lands for sale within two years after a survey. The House b'll does not, but the House has passed a bill now pending in the Senate, preventing sales until ten years after survey. Mr. Colfax added that there was no land of any consequence except in Minnesota, Washington, and Oregon, to which the Senate bill would apply, and but little iu California, Kansas, and Nebraska, under the House bill. The public land everywhere would be opeti to the pioneer. The House then resolved to adhere to their own bill. Without a votr; a recess was taken from 4 to 1 p. M. Sksate. The consideration of the lepislative appropriation bill was resumed. The amendment relative to paying the claims ot the Choctaw .Nation, ot S'250,000, was discussed at length and registered. A recess was taken from 4 to 6 p. m. Mr. Reagan said that the llnguage eniployed by Mr. Olin was deliberate and wilful calumny on the people of Texas. The amendment, was rejected, only 47 voting in favor of it. The Senate's amendment making appropriation for fortifications was advocated byMr. Whitely of Del. He said that the House bill appropriated $075,000, and the proposition now pending merely increased tbe amount $70,000. Mr. Curtis remarked that the aggregate was a million and a quarter. Mr. Whitely said our fortifications have cost $15,000,000. Why should not even this amount be now appropriated for works in fifteen States. Mr. Perry thought we did not want the appropriation when we are at peace with our Mak t and all mankind. Mr. Elliott advocated the appropriation. We should either complete the works or promptly give them up. Mr. McRea took the same view of it. Mr. Stanton said they ought not to stop to consider an important proposition of this character. The House should stand by the appropriation bill which it had passed. The report of the committee on elections, in the Kentucky election case, were considered. The remainder of the proceedings of the House and Senate we are uuable to obtain, on account of a severe lightning storm on the wires east of Buffalo. Rei. Arrival of tile Steamer Niagara. Halifax, June 13, p. m. The steamship Xiuaara arrived here at 7 this evening. She has 78 passengers for Boston, at which port she w ill be due early ou Friday morning. The reports of Garibaldi's success are confirmed. He attacked Palermo from the south side at 4 o'clock in the morning of the 27th, and penetrated to the centreof the city flag in hand, after a desperate combat of six hours duration, and during an active bombardment by sea and land. The royal troops retreated to the palace aud the other public buildings. Hostilities were renewed, and the royal palace was taken by the people and iu the evening burned down. ') loss iu killed and wounded was very 1 con erable. Other towns in Sicily had rise The bombardment still continued on ' theo t. It was said tlie Government was 1 deliberating on the proposition to order its discontinuance, ine troops were concentrating in the castle on which Garibaldi commenced an attack at noon on the 28th. ! The English admiral had offered protec- j tion to American citizens at Palermo. 1 uere was great agitation in toe court and miuistry at Naples. The Ministry tendered their resignation on the 2'.ith. A liberal cabinet was expected to be formed. Garibaldi was already carrying out important administrative reforms at all places under his power. Gkeat Buitain. Parliament bad re-assembled. Important papers iu relation to China were submitted, nivino- all the particulars of the ultimatum and the reply of I the Chinese. The ultimatum demanded ample apologies for the Peiho affair, the restoration of the guns and sh;ps lost on that occasion, the ratification without delay of the Tein Tsin treaty at Pekiu, and indemnity of tour millions teals tor military expenses. The Chinese reply refuses an apology for the Peiho matter, declines to allow an Ambassador to go to Pekin, naming Penangas the place of ratificatiou instead of Pekin; refuses to restore the guns and ships, or to consider the payment of an indemnity, and refers Mr. Bruce to the regulations carried out at tbe reception of the American Mission. These papers dispelled all hope of an amicable settlement. Lord John Russell explained the nature of the Russian proposition relative to the Christians in Turkey, and said Austria, Prussia, and England proposed thatTurkey herself should institute an inquiry a3 to the fate of the Christians; which proposition the Sultan was acting upon. France sided with Russia.
The formal presentation of the belt3 to Sayers and Heenan took place at the Alhambra Palace, London, on the 30lh. Mr. Dow ling, ot Hell's Life, presented the latter, with a complimentary speech, and George Wilkes did the same by Sayers. Each declared all animosities buried. FRANCS. The V"ari3 Moniicur published an article asserting the most peaceable intentions on tbe part of the Emperor. The London Times ridicules tbe article, and asserts that it belies itself. Prince Jerome Bonaparte, uncle of the Emperor, was very ill, and there was little hope of his recovery. The Emperor and Empress had gone to Lyons to meet the Dowager Empress of Russia. It is reported that the French troops in China will afterwards visit Madagascar, and establish a solid occupation of the principal poiuts in that island. Austkia. The enlarged council of the Austrian Empire has held its first sitting. -Tbe Hungarian representatives proclaimed the loyalty of the Hungarian people. The Austrian army in Italy is to be concentrated in the fortresses of the Quadrilateral. Turkey. It was asserted that the Russian troops were concentrating on the frontiers of Turkey. Mahamtued Pacha has been anpoin ted Grand Vizier, vice Mohammed Rescind Pacha. The Government had commenced official inquiries into the complaints of the Christians. Tini.N, May 31st. The following details of Garibaldi's attack on Palermo have been received from reliable sources. At 4 o'clock on the morning of the 27th, Garribaldi attacked Palermo on the South side. A desperate combat ensued, which lasted six hours. The people made themselves masters of all parts of the town. A terrible bombardment was opened bySea and land, notwithstanding which the people continued to fight the troops. The troops retired to the palace custom house and castle. Hostilities were suspended from ten till twelve when the struggle recommenced with great desperation. The royal palace was taken by the people, and in the eveniug burned down. Other towns in Sicily had risen. The inhabitants were everywhere shouting " Viva Victor Emanuel The American citizens at Messina had gone on board the frioaie Iroquois. The English Admiral had offered the protection of British ships to Americans in Palermo. LATEST VIA QUEENSTOWX. The Loudon Post's Paris correspondent telegraphs that the news of the capture of Palermo has made a deep impression on the people of Naples.
