IjKgrrho Euquitfr says that it is expected that Cols. BaBMaon Etheridge and R. W. Thompson will visit this city and address ur e.jae4Ea dtirins the present month. We lupe so, for Col. Thompson is warmly in faror of our glorious State ticket, eight out of the nine candidate; on arlsich were Whigs in the lifetime of that parly . and Col. Etbetitlga said at Terre Haute that if he lived in Indiana he would vole for Lincoln.

T lie Republican Dtmonul vat lou. Saturday was a proud d.y for the Republican? of Evai.svilie. They had invited

sever. d of tLeir ceielrau ..-caters to address them on the political questions of tLe' times, aud had asked their brethriu tVoin op and down the River, from up tbe RailroaJ, and Iron, the country around; lo join with Ihem in doing honor to nnd in listening to the eloquent word3 of those speakers'. The day was clear, but the Leal and dust were very annoying. During part of the day there whs a gcutle bietzi.', and toward j night a seveie stoim came up, rendering the J a'r cooler at nigh.t About eleven o'clock tLe Eoicliny Green cauiC in from Roekpott, Owensboro, Eu- , terprise, nnd .N'ewburgh, and the Charley lion-en from i t. Vernon, VVt-Bt Franklin, and ! Henderson, with a considerable number of : people on board. The excursion train on the K. k C. K. R. ako brought down a large number of persons from Vincennes and other poiuts this side. A stand nnd seats had been erected in Khicl.ford s Grove in the eastern part of the city, about a mile and a quarter from (Un entre, for tiie aiiernoou speaking. The stand was ;kirtcd with an American flag, and the national colots swung in the ' breeze over it. Immediately in front of the atand was a plaiforxn, for thefl'ee Club ana BbwaI. At half past one o clock I'. M., trie Lincola Glee Club opened the exercises of the j davy ty song. A procession of Wide Avuikes from Vincennes and I'rincetou. the, i made its appearance on the ground, led by a brn.-s band. The Indiana Band , next performed an inspiring piece of music. Hon. T'''ni;!9 Corwin was then introduced to the audience by Mr. Win. T. Rage, anl proceeded iu a speech of two hours aud a half wi I-Migth to hold the audience spellboun.l. We took notes of this masterlv speech, nnd will present a report ol it soon. ! We can not hope to give our readers more than n skeleton of this splendid intellectual t eSToit. The life, the soul, put into it by its renowned author, we can not transfer to ' print. In fact, no man living, no matter how gietl a word-painter be may be, can stake a report of one of Mr. Corwin's j speeches that will do tbe orator justice, i lLs -rd- may nil be printed, just as be utten them, but the tones of bis finely niodulated voice, bis emphatic gestures, and esaerially tbut illimitable plaj of features and dagiiencoiy)itig of his inward meaning in hid mobile and "speaking'' ccunteuanie, 1 cannot be put on aper. All these wonderful gifts, together with tiie ripe wisdom and i encore, nnd the fertile mind cultivated by e.rtetisive rcuuiug and observation reader Mr. Corwia one of the most popular' , and effective Stamp oratois of the aire. The effect of Mr. Corwin'3 speech w3 very gratifying to the Republicans. His courteous beating, sincere tone, and frank j treatment of his subject ; the thorough cxaiiin.ution he gave the principles and pol.cy of the various parlies ; tbe copiousness of i illustration and the wealth of authority he brought to siimaln hie positions ; and, finally, i he inimitable vein id' good nature aud j humor which ran tutotioli his speech, fairly j enchained the attention and commanded the ! t.ivornble consideration ot his hearers. Tbe ' beat results to the cause may be expected From this great effort. The rumbling of distant thunder, and tLe appearance in tbe north-west of a threatening cloud, compelled Gov. C. to close his , speech before he had said all he wished to. Hil auditors regretted much the necessity which compelled him to close. They wou d gladly have listened to him an hour longer, and, to all appearance, fjr the remainder of the evening. When the speaker concluded, three hearty cheers Were given to him, the Land j played the Star Spangled Banner, and tbe audience dispersed in search of shelter from I be approaching storm. '. 1 . Ji t i The exercise.? at night were very brilliant and exhiliarating. The Wide Awake?, at j seven o'clock, marched, according to their programme, to escort the speakers to their stands. Company A led by the Indiana Band, acrntnpnnied Mr. W illicit to Lamasoo. The other companies escorted the other speakers to tho rostrum at the corner of Main and First afreet. They were led by 1 the Crescent City Brass Band and the Vincennes Saxe-hotn Band. In their ranks were a majority of the Vincennes Wide Awakes, who bad not gone home on the tr.iin early in the evening. After mosic by the Crescent City Band( ! Benj. Harrison was introduced by James (5. Jones, and proceeded to make n speech in which he sketched the principles of the i various parties, and demonstrated that tbe Republican party favored those measures which were caU ulalcd to benefit the free white laborers of tbe country, such us the Pacific Railroad, the Homestead Bill, and the Non-Extension of Slavery, while the Domorrai-y garae but a lame, hyqiocriiical support to the Pacific R. R. and Homestead Bill, and fivored the extension of slavery. Mr. H. appealed to Youno America the youag men uow aoout voting for tbe first time and asked them to connect themselves with the party of progress. He spoke of the iuiorlabce ot the elective liaochiee, and ! said voting ought to be a matter of conscience. After speaking half an hour, in the same convincing line of argument, Mr. H. gave way for Gov. Corwin, who had arrived. Gov. Corwin proceeded to address the

audience in a speech apoke iu his tjBOiiltar, took very conservative ject of slavery. He b Slave Law should be

ground oil. tho skislieved the Fugitive faithfully executed; Slavery should not be interfered with in the States ; if insurrections arise in the South, the North sbouid help to put Ihem. Oown. He would, in mercy to tbe Sooth, hem her in with free States, sothatiiee while people could march to her relief iu case of a servile war. lie had no fault to find with slave owner.-. They had the slave? V-and' didn t kuow what to do with Ihem. The Republicans 3aid, enjoy your institution, but don't extend it. The South ,was, he said, like a man with a wen on his neck which he had inherited. If it stays there it will kill him, if be cuts it off it may kill him. He (Mr. C; didn t want a lour future states t noma ;n ..- : 1 1. n-nl,3 t t.air- nor-L-j to come in wi.th wens on their necks. Iu the course of his remarks, he said be had spent Cvc weeks in New York, and knew the coalition there against the Republicans would not amount to anything. The Dickinson Hards wouldn't enter into it. Honest Bell and Dpngbai men couldn't be in. veigled into it. He said in New Fork thousands of Iiell men wouldn't lay much, but would quietly vote for the man thev rt (Linco'ln) to the man they liked ,,. . , .. .. li. So it ought to be in Indiana. liked net best (Bell) The speaker proceeded to treat his audi once to a speech full of reason and adorned by humor. We can not notice it further. After music, the display o came off. Roman candle, ri lights, and serpents, filled the Wuzo of fire, w hich, together w of some hundreds of l imp-, foj lire wf.rk? rketa, Mu air with a h the glare led a scene of dazzling brilliancy. After this, Col. Allen was called lor and responded. He delivered, after the regular ;ermon, an exhortation, in spirit-stirring language, urging every man to do his duty between now and the election. He particularly impressed on the minds of his bearers the importance of crnanizaiion, which reommendation v. ss both necessary and timely i. While Col. Allen was speaking, the delegation from Lamasco came in. They bad been listening to good speaking and were full of enthusiasm. The Colonel closed his eloquent remarks and the Wide Awake Battaiion formed into column tor the purpose of marching around town and going through their drift. They had three Bands, and with their three hundred torches, made a very hue display. After parading until eleven o'clock they proceed;'! 10 their headquarters and dispersed. I ins display, ou the whole. Was which the Republican-- here may wt gr.itnlate themselves. It was a su through.' Much good will cotue of oU innl! Deatirwcttvc I'Mre. At twelve o'clock Saturday night, hie was discovered in a row of stable on the alley ! between Third aud Fourth, Vine aud Sycamore streets, back of Walker's Row aud the residences of Mr. Phi'ip Decker and Mr. i Kramer. The flames Spread with great rapidily, and Boon enveloped everything com- j busttble adjoining the stables. There was a Strong northerly breeze, which drove the ' flames and firebrands in a direction to endanger valuable property. Most of the persona liiir.g in the immediate neighbor hood removed their household goods to save them i from threatened destruction. Individuals were quickly on band, lenr- j ing down fences and other wooden struc- : tures that offered food for the flames, and j throwing water on roofs to prevent them j from igniting. The rain of the early part j of the evening had a favorable effect in rendering wooden surfaces secure through ; dampness. The ' Little Sis " engine was set to work at a ci'tern, and did good service. The ! Lamasco engine and one or two others were at work at the Canal with good soccess. 1 The Steamer was taken to the Court House corner as quickly as a hundred men could haul her, and set to work iu effective style. Soon she dampened down the flames with her tremendous torrent of water, an this done, the fire wa promptly quelled by all the streams. Had it not been for theSieamer the damage must have been much greater than i was ; bad there been horses ready nt her engine house to haul her, she would have eot to work ten minutes sooner, and considerable property might have been saved. Steam was up before she was hail way to the Court House corner. Dr. John T. Walker's nor was burned to death. The loss by combustion, breakage of furniture and Old Grai out-buildinos and fences, will be ptobablv a, oon .. , ,1 ... ' Si. JOO at a rough guess. o . . Sand ron Bedding Hoksv.3. Mr. Small of Dundalk. I.eland. a veterinary surgeon of considerable experience, states that sand is not onlv an excellent substitute for straw for hone bedding, but superior to straw, as the sand does not heat .end saves the hoofs of the horses. He states that sand ,g p. f-Tuaiv4.lv use! fur Imr.t s' lamta in bis stables - The Memp M the followiuj, siauuiui: at th men in large letters : We understand that the IL unmeraon Etheridge made a speech at Dresden, Tennessee, during which he read the Black Republican platform, and asked if there whs any man there who could find fault with it. He further said that the election of Lincoln on that platform would trive peace to the country, while Prc"kioridge would dissolve the I'nion. hv

" Coirtnti'nicastJ. Ilavil Times autl tiler Credit System. In a former article on this subject. I remarked that tbe great cause of hard times was overtrading, the credit system, and extravagance. But we must bear iu mind

that all this has to ho charged totke credit i favorable for crops, but it still continues unsystem account; for credit begets, exirnva- ' settled. Messrs. R.

Some of our 1 best financiers entertained the hope that the banking system (which is credit on au extensive scale) would be curtailed in proportion to tbe influx of California gold, but ; , the very reverse has been the fact, and what with our additional deposit and extensive ' exchanges (for want of a National issue), ; . the greater part of our California gold is I awsuioweo up.

He did not define those limits. ! but I am persuaded that whenever our cirdilating medium gets above the par ot other nations we have reached that point. Like esery tiling else It would Iind its level, and the best part of our currency would flow out. Speculators from other nations could bains in their commodities and trade at a 1 profit, and not only carry off our specie but 1 dood the country with articles of which we bad already a surplus. I fear that at pres cut a great deal of our specie is flowing out nt Ik. 1 .. . t e . i . i ot the country, both from the causes above alluded to aud fiom an increasing mania for " French Goods." With so many influences at work, the wonder is, not tiiat pressures and contractions in the currency occur, but faati they Jo 71-it occur more frequently. E. Cknthk Township, Aug. 21, IrtCO. Tin- Decay of American Orchard. Dr. John A. Warder, the eminent Ohio pomologist, writing in a late number of the C.winnutut upon the decadence of orchards in this country, gives the prominent causes of failure in the following summary : In this essay, I have passed in rapid review, with some occasional amplifications, the chief cause of the premature decay of apple orchards, which may be attributed to a want of proper selections aud preparation of the soil. In neolect of cultivation to orhauniofl of the soil; to want of mat ire indicia!, ennlied. under the o-nidanee of .

With all these evils to which our Off hards are so generally subjected, it is not surprisittg that we should often find them iu a ! state of premature decay, nor that we should hear complaints of their being no longer profitable; but who would expect a I crop of corn or wheat to be remunerative ! under similar unfavorable circumstances, or 1 wheu subject lo 6uch utter neglect'' No sensible farmer, surely. Popular Sovereignty In a Nut Klirll. The exact amount of sovereignty the people of the territories enjoy under our system of government may be gathered from the following politico-mathematical calculation ; and to a practical mind who prefers facts to theories, this short paragraph will effectually answer all the speeches ever mAde by the distinguished "squatter sovereign," Douglas, and all bis backers, iu favor of " my great principle First. RcDiih'ican covernment irf divided . . I .1 : . : . .1. , , t 1UIO iuirruisin.il urpumciil!, nrgninuvr, Executive and Judiciary : or the law-mnk- . . . ing, law executing, and tiie law Helming branches. They are three in number, and are co-equal, mathematically ; each is one-third, stated thus : Legislative, onethird ; Executive, one-third ; Judiciary, one-third; Kovernment tobn, one. The neonle of the Territories have ioat this rnv. ernment ; no more, no less. The true de- j finition of "popular sovereignty 'is people sovereignty, or a government created by the , people governed. Well, how much of their own government do tbe peoule of the territories create f This settled, and we can then see the exact amount of " sovereignty" enjoyed by the people of the Territories. First, the President of the United States appoints and sends them a Governor, which is i Executive j one-third; he appoints and ! se"J-' ttieir judges, wuicu is ( Judicia

ry ) one-third ; the people elect their Repre- j which, in pursuit, bad a semblance of realseniatives to the General Assembly, which itv. but wbicb. in the retrosnect. is melted

' ;3 f LtLaaytativel one-third. Here, then, we hat the people of the territories are only one-third sovereign at the best, for

the President fnrnishes them with twothird, of their government, and then by and irom the j ftvV) orie uf t,e thirds of government the destruction of Governor that is furnished them so era-

! eiously by the President, is clothed with the ' veto, which, save one vote, absoibes twoI , - - - , . , ' , thinls of the other third. So the matter in frtct sland;J precisely thus: the President mftkes tue Governor three-ninths ; the , President makes the Judges three-ninths , j Governor s veto, save one vote, two-ninths; sovereignty held by tbe Government of i ,he 1 niteu atmef, mmus one vote, eight- " , loio'ij -v. Lujiir uu-uiiuu, nun i. ! traction so small that 1 know ot no mathematical rule by which to calculate it. Here, then, we have the "great principle'' of popular sovereignly, a3 now applicable to the Territories, worked out. Niue men in the Territories equal to one man in the States. One would suppose Mr. Douglas expected the Territories to be colonized bytailors, of which, the old adage says, it takes nine to make a mau. Of course the " peo pie of the Territories are left perfectly free to form and regulate their own domestic institutions, by law, in their own way," in tt horu. Pacl Plato. Carondelet.

It floated like a duck, ami ooeveu me ueim witn tne lustant.ineomco of th.. l.nman ill A3 I, head on toward us several times during this trial trip up and down the river, we had a clear view of its propelling wheel. It revolved with all the majesty of a huge millwbeel, right about the center of the hull, and so favorably set were the floats, that it scarcely lifted the water at all on the emerging side. There was some sensible irregularity at times in the revolution of the propeller, evidently arising from tbe cranks passing the dead points.
