Kiom an occasional Correspondent. FltOM THE STATE CAPITAL.

Impressions of an Evansvlllian at the Capital Beauty of the Streets The Carriases of the WealthyProgress of Indianapolis, Business, &e Personal. Indianapolis, July 2, 1ST7. Editors Journal : Driven into my room by the intense lieat of out-doors, which makes pedestrianation positively awful, and knowing nothing better I can do than to make known to my friends the impressions an Evansvillian receives in being suddenly deposited in the middle of what is not only the Capital, but the biggest city in Hoosierdom, I will "foilow my bent." , The first impression is that of pleasure, accompanied by a very considerable admixture of something that seems like envy. The streets here are so wide that to one who has been " cabined, cribbed, confined" in a place like Evansville, there is a feeling that his " area of liberty"' has been decidedly enlarged, and, insensibly, he finds himself saying, " why couldn't we have had this down in the Pocket City, where town lots were so plenty and fresh air so coveted?" But as the thing can't be did over again we must " accept the situation." Let us console ourselves with the thought that that situation is not quite so bad as "the last ditch," and that habit and familiarity, and especially prosperity, can make things not only tolerable, but genial. The Prisoner of Chillon, if I remember, says, " My very chains and i grow mends; so much a long acquaintance makes us what we are." Well, to begin : Washington Street is really a superb drive, promenade "and business haunt. It runs due east and west, and was identical with the Old National Road. It is one hundred and twenty feet wide, with foot pavements on either side of twenty feet wide. The other streets are ninety feet wide, crossing each other at right angles; but besides these are four avenues, radiating r " ti . rt- i v. : l. .i ,. . , jiuiu j. lie vucie, nuuii is a iiui of ground once in the centre of the city, originally designed tor the gubernatorial mansion, but that idea has ' long ago been abandoned, and the Circle is in" a shameful state of shabbyness and neglect, as are also Mine other of the public grounds. These avenues exactly intersect the blocks and streets, running as they do, exactly 45 degrees between the cardinal points of the compass, and, of course, they greatly increase what some people would call the waste room, but which, a3 a sanitary feature, nr;ust add not a little to the health of the place. On a smaller scale, it is like Washington, " a city of magnifi cent distances." The streets in the main portion of the city are all bowldered or graveled, perhaps some of them macadamized. This, with their ample width, enables those who own carriages to display their equipage and blooded stock to advantage, and I may say you see a higher average of good carriages than with us, though I nave seen none to equal what we sometimes turn cut in E., by such of our townsmen as Mr. Viele or Keen, or Preston, or Morgan. I have seen Governor Baker's establishment; the bays and the barouche from the hands of our townsman, Mr. Greene, which he brought up here with him. Like himself, they are good, but unpretentious like himself, a specimen of pure republican symplicity. By-the-bye, the Governor is winning golden opinions among the people here, and if you leave it wi th the people of Indianapolis to decide, there will be no ioubt who is to be the next Govtrnor of Indiana. But, to other impressions those about the city the immense passenger depot, the street railroads, and. on Meridian Street, the multiplied con centering teleeraphic wires, and then their hotels, (I mean hotel buildings.) the Bates House, the Palmer and the Oriental and the Spencer; their public buildings, too numerous to mention; some fine blocks of stores, as Glenn's, Sehnell's, Alvord's and others; these impart to the city an appearance of importance unapproached by any other city in the State; and, say what we may, Indianapolis is never to be any other than " no mean city." . . . It is suffering now by reaction from the unnatural stimulation of the war years, but it must continue to grow, and it will make a hard contest to keep its claim to the championship as being the chief city of the State. There certainly is a vast amount ol wealth here, and the number of mansions such as you see in a drive over North Meridian Street exceeds largely what I expected to find. As it regards progress, Indianapolis is not stepping along very briskly. There is at least a partial paralysis or congestion. From this they exrect soon to recover. So different from Evansville you see but few. private residences going up. The number of stores is even less. I counted bist some six or seven on South Meridiim Street, aod scarcely any others. In what you would regard as good business sections of the city, you find a large number of stores "for rent;" and several blocks of building designed for three and four-storied houses that have been roofed in at one story ; and then again some foundations, upon which are to be erected fine superstructures, are now boarded over, awaiting the "good

time a-coming." Capitalists here, I should judge, are growing a little timid about investing very largely in stone or brick and mortar. As it regards business, particularly the retail, stimulated to a remarkable degree during the war, it is now returning to its normal condition, and the evidence is reluctantly forcing

itself upon those most interested in me inaiiei. we uavc iuu uiauy icun stores." Very few are making money in this line, lhe wholesale department of trade, I am told, is improving, but there are few if any houses here that compare with the best in Evansville. A new cotton mill is about ready to go into operation, with an actual capi tal ot one hundred thousand dollars But I have written enough for a hot afternoon. I have omitted . some things, of which I intended to give you jottings. Governor Baker went to Lafayette to-day to attend the Encampment there, lie returns to-morrow, and will spend the Fourth at Knightstown, and deliver the address at the laying of the corner stone of the boldier) Home. 1 believe the Grand Army of the Republic will have the ceremony in hand, and the occasion is one of the main things talked of here, next to the "set-to" that Chaplain Lozier is having with Mr. Foster, Universalist clergyman.' It's an awful hot time to discuss these exciting questions. Yours, M. From our Special Correspondent. 3Jg? The Fourth at Knightstown Laying ' of the Corner Stone of the Soldiers' Home. Knightstown, July 4, 18G7. Editors Jou; nal: One of the most completely successful anniversary celebrations ever holden in this State, or elsewhere, was that of the laying of the corner stone of the Indiana Soldiers' Home, at Knightstown Springs, Rush County, to-day. Not less than ten thousand people were in attendance, mostly from Henry, Rush, and adjacent counties. The weather was delightful. The exercises were conducted by the Grand Army of the Republic. Gov. Baker and staff, Hon. Will Cumback, Generals Kimball, Cruft, Grass, Terrell and Mansfield took part in the ceremonies. The oration of Governor Baker was listened to with profound attention, and was warmly approved. The following is a list ot the articles deposited in the stone.; it was read by General Charles Cruft, who prefaced its reading by a few words of manly eloquence: i 1. Declaration of Independence. . 2. Articles of Confederation and perpetual union between the States. - 3. Constitution of the United States. 4. Constitution of Indiana. 5. Washington's Farewell and other Addresses. G. History of the States of the Union. 7. Ordinance of 1787. 8. Emancipation Proclamation. 9. Chronological Record of the Rebellion. 10 Act of the General Assembly 6f Indiana establishing the. Soldiers' Home. 11. Last Inaugural Address of President Lincoln. 12. History of the Soldiers' Home from the time of its organization, 10th of August, 1805, to the 1st of April, 1S37, the time of its transfer from the Association to the State of Indiana. 13. Constitution and Charter of the Grand Army of the Republic, Circulars. General and Special Orders of the "Grand Army,""from the time of its organization in Indiana, August 20, 1S0G. 14. Message of Gov. Oliver P. Morton, delivered to the General Assembly of Indiana, January 11th. 1867. 15. Gov. Baker's Message to the Legislature, communicating reports in reference to the Indiana Sanitary Commission and Memorial of the Board of Trustees of the Indiana Agricultural College. 16. Adjutant General W. H. H. Terrell's Reports of Indiana. 17. Report of the Indiana Military Agencies to the Governor, December, 1S64. 18. Senate and House Reports of the General Assembly of the Committee on Military Affairs. 19. Report of Adjutant General Laz. Noble, from Jan. 1st, 1863, to Nov. 12th, 1864. When the stone had been lowered to its place, General Kimball spoke as follows: " On this great National day, we have assembled to lay this corner stone, emblematic support of the Home of our wounded aisd disabled comrades. " We dedicate this 4 Home ' to our comrades whom battle scars hae made priceless jewels in the tiara of our national crown. Their hi6tory is co-eternal with the scenes and events of many battle fields, where they o nobly gave themselves as a sacrifice. Within this comer stone we record our remembrance of the m:;ny painful and toilsome marches, and the patient endurance through the long night of war: and with our rank--thinned, though not broken, we pledge to them, and to each other, that, come weal or woe, that same ' old flag ' shall protect us, as a nation, as loug as an arm can be r:i scd to strike, or a voice to plead in its defense. Let the cannon, with its " battle clouds,' bring to the memory of our comrades the day of peril. (Discharge of cannon once.) " To him who shall dare to strike

the flag, emblem of all that is good and great, let the earnest sound warn: (Discharge of cannon twice.) " ."Now Peace has come, with her enticing charms, and the battle-field is losing its horrors encircling that scene of desolation and violent decay, rounded knoll, deep ravine, and un

dulating plain, once seamed and dented with earthworks, now grass-gruwn. spread out the ripening harvests to greet the peaceful morn. "In the midst of this glad scene, 'with malice toward none, with char ity for all,' let us remember the duty of the hour our duty to our country; our duty to the Supreme Ruler, whose providence blesses this nation to-day as the soil of lreedom. "Our duty to the world is to leave intact our nationality, to prove that we are a- tree, sovereign, and inde pendent people, controlled by that instrument which was conceived in purity and born in patriotism Our Constitution. "May its ensign, that has commanded respect and veneration in the gloom of Oriental despotism; guiding the wandering American with its morning stars, and at sunset blendingits hues with the vault of heaven, to shield and -protect him; that made the solitary pilgrimage at Valley Forge, and crossed the ice-bound waters at Trenton, with victory gleaming upon it; that has been unfurled from the moors of Canada to the halls of Montezuma, and amid the solitudes of every sea the symbol of resistless and beneficent power; that has led to freedom, to victory, and triumphed over treason. "May it ever be like the guardian angel, over this Home; and under its folds may the chosen spot consecrated this day be forever sacred and honored!" ; FROM PIKE COUXTF. The Fourth at Fetersburgh. Petersburg!!, Ind., July 5,1S67. Editors Journal : Yesterday we were to have a grand picnic and celebration at this place, but the rain came down almost in torrents in the forenoon. At two o'clock, the rain having ceased, we repaired to the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, which was filled to overflow ing. The Declaration of Independence was read by Mr. J. HMiller, of this place, and we felt good over it to think that we are fast returning to that ancient landmark that " all men are created free and equal ; that they are endowed by their Creator with cer tain inalienable rights life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Maj. Henry M. Scott, late of Indianapolis, brut now of our place, delivered a short but stirring oration, which had the true.metal, and it took no Solomon to see that the Major was intensely loyal, and in truth, he could be no other way, for he has faithfully served his conntry in the field, and of course cannot forget the party that stood by the interest of the army. Judge Baker, of Vincenues, being called upon, responded in a very pleasant little speech, but it was thought the Judge indulged a little in politics, not enough, however, to spoil the good humor of his speech. At night a concert and supper were piven by the Petersburgh Brass Band. The hall wa3 crowded to overflowing, and every one seemed determined to make up in enjoyment for what they lost in the morning. Various toasts were proposed and responded to, but as your unworthy correspondent was on the committee, modesty forbids that I should say they were good ; however, I will give you one: "Washington and Lincoln, the first the founder, the second the saviour of his country. " Thus pleasantly passed away another Fourth of July. We are done harvesting, and I may say we have a good average wheat crop. Corn looks well, and Radicalism is growing very fast, and promises more than an average yield at the October harvest. Ever yours for the right, Filo. BAKERY.

Great Xew England Remedy DR. J. W. POLAND'S WHITE PIME COMPOUND, TS NOW OFFERED TO THE At A fiicted throughout the conntry, after liavlnsr ben moved bv tht? tst of eleven years in the N e -v England States, where us merits nave oecome as wen Known as the tree from which, in part, it derives its virtues. The White Pine Compound Cures Sore Throat, Colds, Coughs, I ipthena, Bronchitis, Spitting of Blood, and Pulmonary Affections aenerallv. It is a Remarkable Remedy for Kidney (Jomplaints, Diabetes, Dif ficult? of 1 aiding Urine, Bleeding jrom the Kidneys and Bladder, Lrravel and other complaints. ' In November, 1855, 1 first advertised It under the name of W hue Pine compound, lu twa years from that time there had oeen wholesaled in Manchester aloneoue hundred thousand dollars' worth, where it took the lead of all the cough remedies in me marset, ana it sun maintains that position. There are good reasons lor this; it ia euuiuiug aim neaiing in lis na ture, is warming in the stomach, and pieusani, wmiai to tne taste, anu la ex eeedinz cheap. - As a remedy for kidney complaints the White Pine Compound stands unrivaled. It was not originated ior that purpose; but a person In using it for a cough was not only cured of the cough, but was also cured of a kldne difficulty of teu years standing. Since that accidental discovery, many thousands have u ed it for the same complaint, and have been completely cured." THE WHITE PINE COMPOUND. "It was early in "the spring of '52 that this compound was originated. A member of my laniily was amicsed with an irriiation of the throat, attended with a disagreeable cough. I had for some months previous luuugui wiai a preparatio i uavmg r.ir its basis the inside barn of White Pine might be so compounded as to be very useful in diseases of the Throat and Lungs. To test the value of it in the case alluded to, I compounded a smail quantify of the medicine that I had been planning, and gave it in teaspoonful doses. The result was exceedingly gratifying. Within two days, the irritation of tne throat was removed, the coun subsided, and a speedy cure was effected. The above was writen by Dr. Polacd ir 18tf. Since then, as in jianchester, th White Pine Couipouud has taken the leat of all cough remedies, as well as prepare tions for tiie cure Ol kidney difficulties, 1: every city, town, village, and hamlet throughout the New England States. This remedy is as safe and pleasant to take as it is effectual. WHITE PINE COMPOUND, GEORGE W. SWEET, !.., Proprietor. Prepared at the NEW ENGLAND BOTANICAL DEPOT, 106 Hanover Street, Boston.

THIS IXTKKLMIVIi DISCOVER V was made known to the world by the Farmers' Club of New York, at their meeting in the latter part of June, 1S., and its importance to our country and the world was earnestly discussed ; but the inventor, William L. Potter, of Ciifton, Park, X. Y., has been carefully experimenting with the material for many years, and has demonstrated its utility and practicability. Afier suffering many partial failures in compounds of lime in ail its various forms and phases in sand, granite, plaster, mineral coal, clay of various kinds, marbledust, so-ip-stoiie, cement, coal-tar, vegetable tar, asphaitum, etc. in all the proportions and combinations that an intelligent nnl i'lvt'iiilveiiiiii'l could suggest, lor fourteen yearn, lit? tried the slate-stone also, in many combinations, be;ore he discovered thiit na ure's aw ol reconstruction was exceedingly simple, requiring enlighten to hold the particles in connection till time an 1 the action of the elements firmly unite them. If ever a roof leaks, it will be owing to other causes than the decay of the covering. It will be because the water goes round, not through it. It is uneqtutled as a paint over new tin, and would preserve it many yeais without further attention, and should be used for that purpose instead of paint. It will repair all defects in old tin roofs, such as rust-holes, cracks, and breaks, making them permanently waterprool, and more durable, at much less cost than a tin-smith could afford todo it, even in his imperfect manner. Old roofs of every description can be repaired much more durably and cheaply with Plastic Slate than with any o: her material extant. Coal-tar Is found to be the visoions element alike of coal and slate; and it was discovered, not invented, and scientific investigation, as well as experience, fully establishing the fact that its exposure to heat and cold, wet and dr-, erves only to reconstruct the two elements in their condition Soi-id Slate. PLASTIC SLA TE is SUPERIOR TO TIX 1. Bt cause it is a better ncn-oonductor of heat. The rooms under it will be cooler in summer and warmer in winter. 2. It will not rust. 3. it will not break or crack or en like tin does where Jointed. 4. It is less dangerous. Dr. Tyng's church one of the finest in New York, was burned in November, 1865. causing a loss of 4ijot000, from a fire in its tin roof, from the braziers of some Twm who were repairing it. 5. It needs no painting, which on tin amounts in a few years to the entire cost of Plastic Slate Roof. t. Because it costs half a much, and lasts twice us long. I have, at considerable expense, obtained from "The Plastic Slate Joint Stock Company, of New York," an exclusive right for Evansville and Vanderburgh County, Ind., and am prepared to put on new roofs and repair old tin roofs, repair tin, zinc and copper gutters. Present price for new Plastic Slate Roofs eight dollars per square of ten feet ; same applied to new or eld tin roof, four dollars per square. Gutters repaired at reasonable rates as to size; and at these prices all work will be kept in order (accidents excepted) iue years, at the expiration of which time it will be better than when new. We have the privilege of referring to the following parties for whom we have applied the Plastic Slate Koofing: R. S. Tenny, Esq. ; John J. Deig, Esq.; Messrs. Reitzand Haney; Wm.
