Wanted. A pood girl can hear of a tileasant situation by applying to Dr. llaa1-. lwd. firA large lot of fresh and beaulilul business, dress, and overcoats has just been received, and can be bought at Lyons's fashionable clothing and furnishing boOdr. Bssr There was a good Republican meeting in Oerman township on Monday evening. From 7f to 100 persons were present. Mr. John L. Mansfield, Klector at large, spoke in German to the entire satisfaction of his audience. The indications are favorable there for u good vote for Lincoln and Hamlin. ARCADIAN. .McCracken, at the Arcade restaurant, on Water street, received yesterday a fresh installment of Maltby's celebrated Oysters. Some great philosopher once said that "oysters is nice, if a fullar only knows how to cook 'em." Mac is fully acquainted with thenrt and mystery of doing " that same." The Arcade is always supplied with " all the delicacies," oysters, game, kc. especially the itc, which may be supposed to include an assortment of choice liquors and ciirars. 1 td feijr We direct the attention of all those who admire fancy Saddlery to the advertisement of Mr. G. Thornhill on the inside of to-day's paper. Mr. T. has just returned with his new stock, which cannot be surpassed in the West for beauty of workmanship, (live him a call, you that w tnt something nice in the Saddlery and Harness line. fttry- Don t torget the speech of Mr. John Ii. Mansfield in Mo.'irt Hall to night. He speaks in German, and all who can understand that language should bear him. Tomorrow (Thursday) night he speaks in English at the f ame place. jY In another place in to day's Journal will be found an orthographical curiosity, arranged by a warm friend of the man likely to be tha next President. 't is a very ingenious arrangement of let. ers indeed, and resembles Old Abe's chances for the Presidency : look at them any way you please aud they come out all right. ftsgSoiue contemptible miscreant, innnitelv less worthv a soul than his unfortunate victim, yesterday administered poison to Mr. keats's beautiful pointer bitch. So general a favorite was she that no one could be f und who had the heart to shoot her in order to pot an end to her sufferings. The wretch who would perpetrate such an act of wanton cruelty deserves to be eternally haunted by his victim's dying howls. Sp akiug lit Scott Township . Judge L. Q. Deliruler speaks at the Satindersville School House this evenitifr. It will be a fine moon-light ride, and Republicans from the City will be well repaid by imr ot Judge DeBruler's best speeches. SaJfOne of our old, unexci table citizens gives a calculation in a communication in regard to the relative strength of the North and South in military power, which in these days of fire-eating gasconade is worth reading. It is very evident from the figures our correspondent makes that the idea of resistance to constitutional authority by the South is the merest madness, and certain if carried out to bring ruin on those who entertain those ideas. B3a. There was a Republican meeting at 1 the Cross Roads in Armstrong Township yesterday afternoon. Mr. John S. Mansfield delievered an address in German alujut an hour long, which was listened to with much interest. g"It is becoming every day more and more probable that Lincoln will carry every Northern State and Rreckinridge every Southern State. The probability is that even California will go for Old Abe. If so his electoral vote will probably be 18:: while Breckinridge's will bel'JO. Hell and Douglas will get "nary one.' teLT" The Republicans in Vanderburgh Couuty are wide awake and confident of giving Lincoln and Hamlin a plurality if not a mnjority over all opponents. Meetings are held in the out townships with excellent success, and with such speakers as liantfield, DeBruIer, Dunn, Porter, and Hancocktogether with our home help, a great and wholesome change is going on. Set down Vanderburgh as c-4taiu for Lincoln and Hamlin.

EVANSVILLE, IND., WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 31, I860.

t'i)ii""'' ,(. lSlh October, IbCO, I Koitok J.ri:A! : The fire-eaters of the i South have lately been fo bold and daring with their threat.-: of secession from the Union, in ease Lincoln should be elected President of the 1'. S., that f hive !eeu induced to make Bomo examination into the relative strenglji of he Free and of ttie Slave sections ot the Lninii,:n all the NortH, and also part of the South, agree that Ihe I'nion must be preserved, even by force if necesssry. 1 find, by referring to the American Almanac for 1H.-.4, page 01, that, in tinten years from 1840 to S0, the population in the Free States increased at the rate of 33 0-10 per cent: and that, during the same period, the white population in the Slave States actually decreased 12 per cent., while the black ni'iiulation increased -3 If iM same ratio of increase 8 10 per cent and of decrease should prevail during the last ten years, that is from 1850 to 1860, the iiopulation in 1300, by adding 100,000 for Kansas (Seward's estimate), will 1 found to be as follows : : Population of whites in the Free States .....18,955,772 : Population of whites in Hie Slave States . Population of bind States 644,203 in the lave 127,lii8 Total 28,727,173 Now, upon the supposition that a fight- ' ing force could bedrawn from all the whites 1 in the Slave States, equal in proportion to ' that which could be drawn from the Free i States, then the armies of the Slave States j would be to the armies of the Free States as 5 is to 10 nearly. This is certainly a I bad enough prospect for the South in case ; of a war to maintain the Fnion, even if j it had not to keep in subordination the ! four millions of slaves ; and to do this, ! should the slaves be armed, would keep the i live and a half millions of whites fully employed even if they had not the North to encounter. It is, therefore, very evident that the very existence of the slaveholder depends upon their remaining in the I'nion. Besides, it is not at all likely that the white men of the South, who do not own slaves, would be disposed to risk their own lives in defense of the .slaveholders andtheir property, more especially as there would lie little or no probability that tbesenon. slaveholders would ever be paid for their services. The slaveholders, including those who merely hire slave, only number about 350,000, so that this comparatively small force would have to mi ct the armies which could be

provided by a free pnlation of nineteen I millions, aud at the same time restrain from ! !li3AThe State Sentinel publishes the foliuurrcction four millions of sUves, who are j lowing, by request, and reque As other pareadv at anv favorable moment to rise upon . . ... . .. . . . ,u -ii 1m m the .Mate to copy : their masters and massacre them in cold i r J blood.

French, K-q., county for the O0iee of Secretary Senate. Mr. French has published leading county of that of the) an Opposition paper in JeM'ersonv die that has been, j instrumental in aiding the Republican cause considerably, and we should like to ?ee him rewarded for his labors. If he. desires the! post abovenamed he ought to have it w ithout opposition, for he has earned it twenty times over, and besides, is competent to fill it creditahlv. jgh:j7There is to be a grand Wide Awake demonstration at Cincinnati on next Friday evening, Nov. 2d. 1 n vitatiotH have been extended to the Wide Awakes of this and neighboring Stales, and numerous enthusiastic responses have been received. It is estimated that 10,000 torches will be in procession, carried I13- that number i f uniformed Wide Awakes. The hospitality o the Republicans of the Qtteen City will be extended to all Wide Awakes who go. Moxky Prbsscbs South. -The N. Y. Herald, of the 23d, in its commercial colli inns, says : We may notice, at the same time, some silly stories which are finding their way into the papers, about the Southern banks ' refusing to discount in consequence of the prospect of Lincoln s election. Those stories 1 have a basis of fact. Most of the Southern , banks like several of our banks here arc : straining every nerve to facilitate the move- ! meat of the cotton crop, and have not adolj lars to spate for other borrowers. As soon ' as the cottou crop is moved, these banks will be very happy to lend money to any customers who can oiler the usual security no matter who is President. Southern bankers have their political preferences, no doubt, but they w ill uot carry them so far as to j aeglect earning dividend.- In the mean- ' time, if any well established Southern house wants accommodation, and cannot get it at I home, " in consequence of the prospect of i Lincoln's election, we beg to state that money is uncommonly abundant in Wall street i just now, and that prime paper, with two oou names Democrats, uepublicans or jisuniotiist it matters not goes anile readily at seven per cent, per uuuuhi. JtraF' Since the recent election, Douglas 1 men have deserted by scores, and the Bell j men are struck dumb by their overwhelining defeat in Baltimore city in a fair, quiet i contest. Breckinridge's majority in the i city is estimated at 3,000 lo 4,000, which I will be iucreased bv the vote of the counties.

Tm: Nox-Votkus in Posey Countv. The erroneous impression seems to prevail not only in our own community, but elsewhere where the results of the late election are being discussed, that a large per cent, ot the voters of this county did net vote fcr Governor on that occasion. The erroneoiisness of this assumption will be readily pereeired by a comparison of the aFgre'lU' vote east for each of the offices to be filled, which aggregate we subjoin :

For Governor., " Congress. " Joint Representative " Representative " Common Pleas Judge....... " Circuit Clerk 11 Sheriff.

V.-rnoti Airoctitr: The alove, from the Mt. Vernoa Advocate, proves, so far as Posey county is con cerned, that Breckinridge men mostly voted for Hendricks and that the Republicans reeeived no aid from them. If there is a county in the State where the Breckinridge J party would be likely to help us as against j the Douglas party, Posey county is the one.

MarshftHHow Fusion Grra Alom. in NCW Yohk The New York Times of Friday says: The Republican party is the only organized party in this State to-day. Us opponi cuts are a mere mob witlumt unity of j principle, or of purpose, and without the I slightest shadow of an eHectfv -organization. I Every step taken to promote their union I has only tended to demoralize them still I further. They are united upon no single point ol policy or 01 sentiment, except in hatred of the Republicans: and even that with four-filths of the whole muss, is secondary and subordinate to their hatred of each other. To suppose that, under such circumstances, any effective opposition can be made to a well organized, harmonious party, animated by a common purpose, holding the same principles, and stimulated by the prospect of success, is the highest of folly. The fusion committee may set this State down as certain to give Lincoln fifty thounan I majority ; and every dollar thev spend in the country will increase that ma- ! jority Thk Election. The " Fusion is ts " have three can.lidale for President, representing three contradictory principles. They agree only in one thing. That is a determination, if possible, to prevent the election of a President of the Cnited States. The means they adopt are worthy of the end they propose. They seek to bully the people out of the exercise of a constitutional right by menaces of Treason ! Whoever voi es their ticket rotes to leave the country without a President, and to put the Government into the bauds of men who are daily uttering threats against its existence. There is no way in which a vote can be cast in favor of electing a President except by casting it for Lincoln. There is no way iu which a vote can be cast in favor of keeping the Government out of the hands of Disunionists except by casting it for Lincoln. Lvery other vote contributes directly towards leaving the Presidential chair vacant, and giving the Disunionists a chance to put one of their own number as acting President. Albany Ercntny Journal. fcsa-The Hon. J. L. Lamotbe, a her of the Louisiana Legislature, mitted suicide a few days ago. comAdvices received here at the different headquarters indicate that all, or nearly all, of the Southern States will vote for Breckinridge, and the Northern States for Lincoln. Maryland, concerning whose vote doubts were felt, is now pretty sure for Breckinridge. Wath. cor. Cin. Ga.

Front California. Sax Francisco, Oct. 17. There is intense anxiety to receive the news of the next Express of the 10th inst. Politicians generally concede that if Foster is elected in Pennsylvania, California will go for Douglas, while if Foster is defeated aud the other Northern State elections result in Republican victories, California will go for Lincoln. It is generally conceded that the Lreckinridge party is losing ground. Col. Baker, Senator elect from Oregon, is expected to make a tour of California for the benefit of the Republican ticket. Brevet Brig. General Clark, Commmder of the department of California, died in this q chronic diarrh.va, after two - , ;,.. , w- u . , , , Trie rniitv sen.nn tins Tm rl e enmmenfP.I The rainy season has fairly commenced. The Democratic papers of both wings of that party, generally denounce the Coalition which elected one Republican Senator from Oregon. Distress in Kansas. Lea vexwortii, Oct. 30, m. The Times of this city has information from Southern Kansas, that sixty dragoons, under CaptSturgis, accompanied by Indian Agent Cowan, had been driving the settlers from what is known as Cherokee Neutral Land-i. The Times correspondent states that 74 homes had been burned and the occupants turned out. Much excitement prevailed in Southern Kansas, but it is thought the statements are greatly exaggerated A meeting of citizens of this county was held last evening to devise plans for general relief of sufferers in the Territory. A committee was appointed to solicit immediate aid from the East. A committee was also appointed to act in concert with other counties in the matter, and a call has been issued for a Conference at Lawrence on the 14th of November. WAsnisc.Tox, Oct. 30. As much has recently been said in the public prints about the recoining of gold dollars into pieces of larger dc nominations, it may be stated that orders for that purpose have been issued from the Treasury Department in two special cases only, and then on representation that the smaller coins occasioned much inconvenience in the receipts and disbursements, for no sooner aro they paid out than they are returned again io business transactions. There appears to be a redundancy of them in the hands of commercial classes. The Assistant Treasurer at New York, for the greater facility in counting, was authorized to have about two million of them recoined ; the Assistant Treasurer at St. Louis, upwards of one hundred and fifty thousand for similar reasons. This rccoinage, however, applies only to the later issues, which it is known are smaller in circumference aud thicker than the heavier and superior coiu of the former. There are now'uine millious of the former, aud of the latter six millions in circulation. On a complaint a few days since from Philadelphia, $200,000 of the newer issues were sent from New York to the mint, whence they were withdrawn, and very many of them again found their way to New York, where gold dollars are a very great convenience, it is considered that there is a redundance of them for i&rge transactions, and hence the recent special order for their rscoinage. There does not seem to be any purpose so to reduce the amount of this description of coinage as to inconvenience the public. Executive Appointments. Washington, Oct. 30. Robert A. Hunter ha3 been appointed Marshal for the Eastern District of Louisiana, vice Kennedy, resigned, nnd A. Armstrong, of Georgia, Lieutenant in the Navy. Speech of Senator Crlttenitf it.

This morning 5 Io"rnal Sfl.TS : "Remarkably shrewd and tec the election, would declare herself inde pendent and send an Ambassador to Washington asking recognition. If recognized, other Southern States would follow suit, and after a sufficient number of States have thus withdrawn, a Southern confederacy would be formed. Conviction. ' PiiiLAOELi-HiA, Oct. 30.

Hernandez, a Spanish pedlar of fancy goods, tired two pistol shots at Miss Fanny May, who had been employed as his book-keeper, and when discharged, he fired a shot into his own body. Miss May was slightly wound- ! ed. Hernandez, it is supposed, is mortally : wouuded. He has a wife and children. I The supposed cause of the tragedy is unre- ; iiuited and jealous attachment towards Miss j May, who is a respectable and handsome ' young woman. Auol sta, Ga., Oct. 30.
