Soldiers' Becord. The Recording Secretary of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Union, for this County, is having a record prepared that will contain a short history of each soldier who becomes a. member. The Record is made up of columns with heads, which when filled will reach over the period of the enlistment of each soldier. First, will Jbe set down the soldier's name, then the; war in which he fought, rank, company, regiment or battery in which' he served r State
from which he volunteered; date of enlistment, 'and 1 date of discharge from the United States service; and such remarks as may be , appropriate. In the column of remarks it is intended to give a short history of each soldier, such as the number of battles he was in, the marches he may have made, the number, of times he may have been wounded, if wounded at all, his sufferings in rebel prison Cells, and all other. matters of interest to' preserve on the Record. There are now over 150 - members belonging to this organization, all of whom have furnished a part of their histories, such as rank', company, regiment, State, etc., but the information intended for the column of remarks has not yet been ': obtained. At a regular meeting, it would be impossible for the Secretary to take all this i history - down unless . each soldier would make it out in writing and hand it to the Secretary to be recorded at such time as he would "have at his disposal. It has been suggested that all. those who have already become members furnish the. Secretary with such information in writing as above indicated, which may be set opposite each name. By this plan the history of. each man may be made up complete, and when, completed, the record will be one of the most interesting that has' ever been 'made up in this county. For instance, we know of soldiers who have participated in a score of battles, while there are others who have been wounded in almost every engagement in which they have fought. There are those who entered the service . as private ,. soldiers, and rose to the rank pf captain, major," lieutenant-colonel and colonel. A short biographical sketch of each orie is , whaiis -proposed, - and - we - think that .the suggestion as to the method of obtaining the history is a good one, which ,will obviate' a great deal of trouble, and save time as far as those' who are : already members are con cerned. Capt. Leavitt is the Record ing Secretary, and will have the book ready the latter part of this week. 'His office is on Third Street, between Main land Locust up stairs where he will be found ready to wait on all. On 'Change. The Board of Trade met at Preston Bros., yesterday. The meeting was called to order by Capt Carson, Vice-President. The market reports from New York and Cinoin nan were reaa. . several, firms subscribed their names and became members. There were quite a number of specimens of flour on exhibition; pome specimens of tobacco ; and Mr. P, Deckerihjid some specimens of oil and soap. The Price List was read and ordered printed; it will be ready for delivery to-day. ' These meeiing. are' proving ' interesting, a,ftdlar4lwell attended, as a" general thing. Merchants and business men are beginning to feel an interest in the move, which, we think, will be f sueeesk' ;By-the-way, whycould not the funds collected by the old Board be paid over into the hands of the4Treasurer of the new Jio-dxAJ could and would be used to a good purpose. We learn that there is quite a sum in the hands of the Treasurer of the old. Board, that i now lying idle. The present Board have put into practical operation what they proposed, and with the. wd of the funds of the old Board would be enabled to procure a room in which to hold meetings. A small roohr would be sufficient at present. In the course of a few months, working as those gentlemen are now, our. city could have a Merchants' Exchange that would do great credit to the enterprise of our merchants. A committee was appointed yesterday to look after a room, with instructions to report to-day. The Board will meet at the same place at three o'clock. . All : who are favorable to this movement are invited , to attend to-day. SENSATiON.--Quite a sensation was created at the Theatre last night. One of the attendants at the door was suddenly seized with a spasm, from" which it required some time for his recovery. He was taken into the air and rubbed, till to f scorered,
Bio Excursion. The Superior
brought up about one hundred and fifty excursionists last evening from various points below. The first got on at Caseyville, Ky., and at almost all the towns up the river, additions were made to the party. There were a large number of beautiful ladies who seemed pleased and happy. The large -and commodious . cabin of the boat afforded all an opportunity to engage in dancing,; which they did to their heart's content. The excursion was made up at the instance 1 of Mr. Golden, who is alive to the interests of the city as well as his own. Nearly all of those who came up visited the theatre, and we hope all enjoyed themselves well. Such excursions will prove beneficial to Evansville. The party will return to-day on- the Superior. ' We hope all were pleased, especially the beautiful ladies. Monument fob Deceased Soldiers. We have heard quite a num ber of citizens speak of the proposition to erect a monument to the memory of deceased - soldiers who volunteered from this county, and all are favorable to' the proposition as far as we haver heard J an -expression In Putnam' C6untyt in this State, about $20,000 have been raised for a similar purpose, and the Committee were debating whether they would build one to cost that sum, or increase it to $30,000, and that amount will probably be raised. Now, the question: is, f that county can raise the above named amount for such a praiseworthy object, what ought Vanderburgh County to do? So far as the soldiers themselves are concerned, they are as a general thing poor. , Many of, them sacrificed a good business that would have paid well had they remained at home, to serve their country. It is eminently fit that they should superintend the erection of this monument, but that It niay be made a credit to the city and county, as well as an honor to the memory of the noble braves who poured out the life's blood for the salvation of their country, all should be-: come interested. As yet, the movement is but .in. an embryo stated but such steps will be taken, and such guaranties given as will satisfy all lbat the work" I will be prosecuted and completed. In all probability, , the association . wjll be incorporated under an act of theJBtate LegislatureZaujhdrizing voluntary associations, and the whole matter will be conducted with 'the greatest care. This one important object of the Association may just as well be accomplished early as late, "and we feel sure that the, liberal-minded anil open-hearted citizens of Evansville and Vanderburgh County will respond liberally when the time comes to solicit subscriptions. It has been suggested thalj the, Jadies would perhaps aid in the good "work by picnics and festivals. , In that way a large sum could be realized, and if the work be entered into with 'spirit before a year has passed .Vanderburgh County can boast of the finest and largest monument in the State. In Spencer County a similar jnove will be made', and we have good reason to believe that all the counties in this Congressional District will follow the example, 7i It . would be a matter of pride if all the counties composing the First Congressional District should be the firsfc in the State to accomplish this noble work.

" S As the Morning Star passed up to Louisville yesterday, all right, we are inclined to believe she was not burned at Mound City, or anywhere else.
