Independence Day. TL3 Eighty tourih anuivursary of our independence has come. This is the National Sabbath. On this day we should lay aside all ordinary wordly cares those cares having for their object the mere accumula- ! tion of lucre and enter into the spirit of the occasion with enthusiasm. We should bear in mind the inestimable : blessings we ejoy in this Land of Liberty, ; and while doing so, bless the memories of those brave men and noble women who secured them to us, and offer up a tribute of thank? to that Merciful Being who grants us all these advantages. Let each and every one to-day conduct himself or herself in a manner worthy of the day, and let all make it a point to read and study that inspired instrument, the ; Declaration of Amnrkan Independence, so -uat its sublime sefliiiueuts may be deeply , engraven on evef heart. Now let n devote the day to enjoyment, and let us exert ourselves in rendering happy the crowd of guests who will visit the city on this ociasion.

Those members of the Association desirous of running an independent ticket, for the Board of Officers, are requested to meet at the Library Rooms, on Thursday evening, at 8 o'clock. Theatricals for the Fourth. The Cincinnati Dramatic Company, whose return we noticed yesterday, are here very opportunely, and have determined to do their p trt toward euterta'ning the numerous visi -ors who are expected to be present at ourcelebration of the national holyday. To this end they have arranged a magnificent programme with special reference to tho occasion. 1 hu bill is exceedingly recherche, and presents unusual attractions. The entertainment will open with the great play " La Tour de Nesle, or the Chamber of Death." which for thrilling dramatic effect is wor thy to rank with the celebrated tragedy of j ' Lucretia Borgia." Miss Fanny Denham will thee sing the favorite national song of "The Red, White aud Blue," and Miss Bella Llewellyn will trip through the mazes , of her favorite Grand Dance, after which the popular national "drama, " Daughter of ihe Revolution, or the Yankee Girl," will be presented. This will be followed by a grand national tableaux, which closes the entertainment. In order to accommodate the admirers of histrionic sports among our visitors from abroad, who may raot have time to remain until the evening's performance, the Compa ny will give an afternoon entertainment, I commencing at 2 o'clock P. m. The evening's reunion will open at the usual hour. For further particulars we would sugges' 11 reference to their published programme A Gooo Salvk. At Thompson's Drug Store, corner of Main arid Second streets, ! may be found for sale Kiersted s Stlve, an excellent article for the cure of cuts, bruises, j old and new sores, caked breasts, and a hun- : dred other " ills that flesh is heir to." We baTe used this salve and seen it used for ' -vettr3' and know U t0 lhe be" "rt,cl that is made- II 13 cIean and eable to the smell and touch, and contains no incre- ' "bdieuts but such as are sooting and healing. 6 g. This notice is an editorial one, and not an advertisement. The writer can recommend this salve as an article which, when once used, can not be dispensed with. MW" A large number ot rourtli of JoJy memorated by the firing of caunou, the discharge of fire-works, the ringing of ! bells by orations, reading of the Declara vouchsafes us the inestimable blessings we enjoy in this happy land. tSGgThe Lincoln Clarion is the name of a new paper just started at Springfield, 111., by E. R. Wiley, jr. It is a wide awake paper and no mistake. Cokuad Baker, Esq., has been se lected to deliver the oration to-day, aud Mr. Victor Buses will read the Declaration of Independence. These are good selections. Both gentlemen are competent to perform well the work assigned them.

The flioii School. The closing exercises of our public schools terminated yesterday, with the examination of the High School Department, taught by Mr. Butterfield. There were present fifty-five pupils. The 1 examinations comprised thirteen classes, viz.: In Latin three, French two, Algebra two, Geometry, Physical Geography, Natural Philosophy, Astronomy, Physiology, and Parsing, each one. The examinations were thorough, and were well met by the pupils in the different classes. The examination of three classes, viz. : English Grammar, Boys' Arithmetic and 1 Mental Arithmetic, were omitted for want ! of time to attend to them. These classes properly belong to the Grammar Department, but were forced into their present j place by the crowded state of the inferior departments. The exercises closed in the evening with ;

declamations and the reading of a manuscript paper, entitled "The Acorn," edited by the pupils. The name of this little literary offering has been well chosen, and the essays embodied in it betrayed some vigorous gems of talent which if properly cared for and cultivated may yet cause their possessors to be regarded as oaks in the literary world. The declamations showed study and training, in the culti.vation of oratory an art of the first importance to citizens of a Republican government. Throughout the day the scholars acquitted themselves well. Thus ha3 closed one of the most comprehensive, thorough, and successful examinations which it has ever fallen to our lot to witness. The whole proceeding throughout, for strict decorum, promptness and proficiency on the part of the students, would lose nothing by a comparison with similar exercises in our best collegiate institutions. The examinations have proved how earnestly the students have labored, and how faithfully the teachers have discharged the trust reposed in tbem. The schools have been a credit to the community and an honor to the city which supports them. Pike County REPUBLICAN Mass Convention. This body met at Wiuslow on the 30th ult. There was a very large attendance, four or five hundred voters being present. Temple Woolsey was chosen President, and J. E. Phillips and E. P. Thorpe, Secretaries. Resolutions were passed, endorsing the platform and nominees of the State aud National Republican Conventions. Harvey Greene of Dubois county was recommended for State Senator, for the district composed of the counties of Pike, Gibson, and Dubois. Mr. Greene is a very popular man, and will make a strong race. It is hirrhly probable that he will be elected. A.J. Wells of Wiuslow was nominated for Representative. He is a first rate man and will run well. Indeed, some of the Democrats confess that he will be elected. D. Hewins was nominated for treasurer, and Richard Gladish for commissioner. A resolution was unanimously adopted, requesting Judge L. Q. DeBruler of Spencer county, to allow himself to be run for Congress. This i3 a very flattering compliment to Judge DeBruler, and indicates the strong feeling in Lis favor all over the District. James G. Jones, Esq., of this city, addressed the meeting in one of his convincing efforts. The nominee for Representative also made a speech accepting the nomination. The Bell men in the county, with very few exceptions, have, we are told, gone heartily into the Lincoln movement. The feeling in favor of the Chicago nominees, and the State ticket, headed by Lane and Morton, is strong and increasing. Republicans feel certain of carrying Pike county. They say they are determined to defeat the Democracy. The Weekly Evansville Journal, No. 1C, Vol. XXVI, i3 out. It contains the latter portion of our interesting Eastern correspondence from the ready pen of " F.;" Edward Bates's Letter in support of Lincoln and Hamlin; the Chicago Platform: accounts of the Dougla3 Ratification and the rival Lincoln Club Meeting which overshadowed it ; Cincinnati, New Orleans, Philadelphia, New York, and Baltimore and Evansville wholesale and retail market reports ; Original Lincoln Song; correspondence from various points; river 1 items; besides a large mass of telegraphic news, news items, anecdotes, etc. Price Si. 50 for single subscriptions, $1 to clubs, per year, T5 cents for the campaign, invariable in advance. Single copies enveloped, five cents. A new paper called the Republican Campaign Guzetie has been started iu Jeffersonville, Clark county, by Messrs. S. E, Brewer & Co. It is a large and well printed paper, and ably edited. It has at its mast head the whole Republican National and State tickets, besides the name of Mr. A. S. , Crothers for Congress in that District (the Second). Mr. Crothers is a first-class business man, personally very popular, but we thought he was a Democrat. If he has be- : cornea Republican, it shows the drift of the : great political current. He is Superintendent of the Jeffersonville Railroad. ames G. Jones, Esq., has furnished us with the full proceedings of the Pike i County Convention held last Saturday at Winslow. We publish an abstract, but are ! obliged to defer the full proceedings till I next issue.

' 'o m mu n icatttl. ' Hard Times " and the Credit System. There are certainly no two things more inseparably connected, or more naturally deducible one from the other, than the credit system and hard times. Our best financiers are perplexed in trying to find out the cause of the contraction and expansion of the currency, and still more to find out a preventive. Yet I think the cause may be comprised in one short sentence over-trading, the credit system, and extravaganceand the preventive in another prompt jmzjits and economy. The latUr, howeve 's the exception, the former the rule. It is true there could not be so much business done by the mode suggested, but, where it would be done, it would be emphatically and in every sense of the word done. It would be finished both as regards debtor and creditor. On the contrary, with the credit ;

system, the business that is transacted ft not : "( ""he arjCl w-ot fattW it jet t tci. -uosi. cu5iumC.3, ,u we o, a .uug c.euti, srp nrn:irftcrffd tn nnri hiiRp a hnnrlrptt nnn-

essentials which they do not need and ; and instituted games in honor of his sires. " ere-long have to sell their necessaries." A pugilistic encounter was one of these Tac " trade'- under its influence becomes so j festal games. The correspondent thus defensive, that the retail merchant is soon j scribe3 ence,unler aad tesa few Hnes forced to get a " fresh supply from the . ' wholesale merchant. This throws the flom the herolc eI,!C :

wholesale merchant on the manufacturer, j nnd the manufacturer is soon forced to enlarge his business. All this is expansion in , business without adequate deposits. Alas for the sequel ! In course of time the j manufacturer wants capital to lay in fresh I materials and pay expenses. Now commences the flow of the returning tide, with wave i succeeding wave unlil it reaches the " customer," who, properly speaking, is the only real debtor because he is the consumer, and j the manufacturer is the only real creditor because he first produced the article. The intermediate merchants are merely us 1 agents who have their commission for pass- : ing the commodity from hand to hand until it is arrested by the consumer. And now probably for the first time he is brought up face to face with his account. What a picture for a painter! Aud yet, ere the account is quite liquidated, at the sound of " New Goods," he forgets the lesson he had learned and goes on as before; thus from year to year he "resolves and rc-resolvesyc:t diet the same." A large proportion of our circulating medium plays a conspicuous part, in bringing j about an unsteady and unsettled commerce with its irresponsible "promise to pay," tad try its extensive circulation (in the aggregate) adds largely to an unsafe expansion, and which by its failure is accessory in bringing about a contraction, at the very crisis when its aid is most required. Have we all forgot the advice of a great philosopher, " to have one penny left when all our expenses are enumerated and paid." He who follows the advice might well boast of his penny, not from its intrinsic worth, but because it enables him to be both an independent and an honest man. Besides, it is more than the whole English nation can boast of; for although she has possessions in almost every corner of the earth, she cannot boast of having "one penny left when all her expenses are paid," neither can her subjects boast of the drudgery they have to undergo in endeavoring to pay the interest on her millions of indebtedness. All this is brought about by the cause above alluded to, over-trading, the credit system and eztrav agance. And were I asked the question a thousand limes, howl would avoid the occasional and sometimes calamitous financial pressures, I would reiterate again and again, by prompt payments and economy. CESTRt Township, Juue 30th, I860. E. Tlie TrutH Rlglitly Spoken. Mr. John Johnston, the celebrated Gneva farmer, of Western New York, in a recent letter addressed to Colonel B. P. Johnson, Secretary of the New York Stale Ag ricultural Society, and published in the Monthly Journal of the societ3", lays down these telling facts, in brief, winch we presume no farmer will deny, and we hope all will apply whose shortcomings bring them within the pale of the implied truth : I notice that those farmers who have most difficulty to make ends meet, always plow most, and keep most stock. Now these men take the true plan to keep themselves poor, because their crops and stock are always poor and bring little. It is a good profit to raise 300 bushels of wheat from ten acres ; but when it takes thirty acres to raise that amount, it is raised at a loss: so it is with cattle and sheep; you will see the thinking farmer making four-yenr-old sieers worth from SCO to $0 each, and hi3 neighbors at the same age, not worth ' over $25 to $40. Now this ought not to be, in a country where all men are bom free and equal ; if the fartu is rich, then labor intelligently employed will soon make the owner in easy circumstances; if his laud is exhausted, (and a great many farms are,) then he should plow no more than he can thoroughly manure. Seed with clover and grass, and let it rest for even two years, and , that yield will not only pay well for tillage, j but it will furnish manure (if rightly managed) to make another field of same size, rich also; it is bad policy, when a field is once highly manured, to continue cropping it with grain until the manure is used up. The latter end of that land will be worse than the firsf ; but let that land lay in clover even one year, but two is better, after it is manured, and then it will stand perhaps six good crops before it requires manuring; if a clav sub-soil I know it will. Journalism C stock Difficulties. Tho Otaheite Gazette is printed in a barn, which answers every purpose for a publication office, bulletin office, editorial office, printing office, and chamber, parlor, kitchen, dog house and stable for the editor, his family and cattle. He does all the composition, writing, selecting, book-Keeping, marketing and deviling himself. He says, with perseverance and economy, he thinks he can get along. If he don't it will not be his faulty It is stated that the new crop of coffee in Brazil is larger than ever before known : the limbs of the trees having to be propped up to prevent their breaking beneath the weight of the growing berries. The new coffee would not be in maiket before the middle of June. Thb New York Herald is out in favor of Bell and Everett, but its editor, James G. Bennett, is one of the Breckinridge Ceutral Committee at Washington.

A correspondent of Miss Dill's Gazette, Indianapolis, reproduces from Virgil's JEnead the following poetic description of a prize fight in olden times. JEneas hid been iu a sea-storm, and after he had escaped t ja.'e y au't3. rtwcbw! -tfee -orenf -EWly, he offerpd sar,irtce tn ..rntortino- trod... The cestus and gauntlets aud greaves were brought forward, and the combatants chosen amid wild shouts of upplause ' brawny Dares and wide-shouldered Entellus." After the usual preliminaries, the performance begins. "Both on tiptoe stand, at full extent, Their arms aloft, their bodies inly bent; Their heads from aiming blows tbey bear afar, With clashing gauntlets then provoke the war. One on his youth and pliant limb3 relies; One on his sinews and his giant size ; Yet equal in success, they ward, they strike, Their ways are different, but their art alike. Before, behind, the blows are dealt; around Their hollow sides the rattling thumps resound. A storm of strokes, well meant, with fury flies, And errs about their temples, ears and eyes Nor always errs; for oft the draws gauntlet A sweeping stroke along the crackling jaws, And mouth and nostrils poured a purple flood, And pounded teeth came rushing with the blood." The crowd becomes iusane, and prolonged yells of fierce delight rend the air, as each blow goes fearfully home, till finally, when old Entellus bites the dust in mortal agony, they seemed too full for utterance of all they felt, and danced and leaped between theii shouts as if in overwhelming j".vThe correspondent then goes on to administer a stinging rebuke to England and America for the barbaric interest they di" play in this heathenish practice. " Olk Abe" Among the Working Men The First Lincoln Pole : We want no better evidence of lhe success of our ticke than the enthusiasm with which the laboring classes, the bona and sinew " of the country, jo inio the support of " Honest Old Abe." Yesterday afternoon the workmen in DeFrtes's Cooper shop, who are almost to a man for Lincoln, with a crowd of their neighbors, raised a tall, straight and beautiful ash pole, and finished the work with hearty cheers for their caudidate for the Presidency. To-day a Lincoln and Hamlin Flag will be unfurled to the breeze in honor of the National Anniversary. This is but one of the many evidences we have of the enthusiasm for "Old Abe," the honest man, the man of toil, in the shops and foundries and manufactures all over our city. The working men who caru subsistence by honest labor, and who despise the tricks of politicians and demagogues, have confidence in the integrity of Lincoln, and know from his life-long experience that he is acquainted with their wants, and will sympathize with their interests. fiS?We have an interesting communication on the subject of the High School Examination, which we have to lay over unlil rext issue. The three candidates for the Governorship of Arkansas are Thomas Hubbard, 'Richard H. Johnson and Henry M. Rector " Tom, Dick, and Harry." A Monster City.
