Oa JSV'edqesday.. nextij)CVf-'--we-4uidneztend 'the-'-boundry

ot the Journal will present tneir patrons with an unusually handsome New Year's Address. It was written by George Alfred Townsend, the distinguished lecturer and poet. It will be printed in a style sufficiently new and beautiful to make it worthy a permanent place in every household. We trust our subscribers will reward the boys who have served them so faithfully during the past year with a liberality that will repay them for getting up so elegant an Address. "Stealing our Trade " Suggestions to ur Merchants.. The New Albany Commercial has an editorial under the caption, " Stealing our Trade" in which it endeavors to awaken the merchants of that city to the importance of looking after a " near-by trade," which is being taken away from them by the activity and enterprise of a few of the wholesale merchants of Lafayette, who are pushing their business down even to the very suburbs of New Albany. The Commercial says that the trade north of Greencastle properly belongs to New Albany, and yet that Lafayette houses are selling goods regularly to GopporfBloomTngton, Bedford, and Salem, and that Earl & Hatcher, a large grocery firm of Lafayette, were as. well known.along the Hue of the'New Albany'' Railroad as any of their own merchants. Wlien in Lafayette, a few mcnths ago, -oar attention was attracted to the enterprise of this firm, and the signal ' success which had attended their efforts in liberal advertising and extending their business far beyond the ordinary area 'ot trade of that city. The aggregate "mercantile business of that city; will not begin to approximate to that doje by our city, and yet, while there are four times as ma ny. groceries . sold j n E va o s vil ?as in La'yfayette, there 'is no single establishment in this eity which sells half the amount 'of ' goods, an-' nually as are sold by Earl & Hatcher. And tiiis .is nofon accbuiittof any special advantage which Lafayette possesses as a market, but solely to the activity "? of the. members of the firm.-. They have, probably, the best arranged and largest grocery .house in the State ;: they carry large Ytoek; so as to compete, in this respect; with Cincinnati, "Chicago, and St." Louis; t'ley employ agents who visit eveiy section where there is any possibility of seouring any trade; and, as one of the most important features of their business, they advertise, with judicious liberality, in the newspapers, by circulars, price-currents, and all other methods which will bring them to the notice of jcountry.dealers.'i - I I i The lesson is not without profit to Evansville as well as New Albany. The commercial history of the past six years has khown that .no city possesses" a trade which belongs to itT Individual activity and combined enterprise, railroads, packet lines, and other facilities of traffic can trmmph over natural advantages. . If a city does not put forth the neeessary exertions and offer, the proper inducements to the regions which are naturally tributary to it, the trade will surely be lost to it and seek other localities. And on the other hand the business of a city can be very largely increased and its area of trade greatly extended, by the personal enterprise of its merchants. It is within the power of any mercantile or manufacturing establishment to draw new customers to the city by the individual efforts of its members, and while they are thereby enriched, the city also is benefitted in its general interest. Partly by the building of railroads, but chiefly by our own neglect, we have lost to this city a valuable trade iuSouthern Indiana, to the northeast of thi$ city- which ought tot be regained. , There is a considerable business which this city might secure from Spencer, Perry, Dubois, Pike, Daviess, Sullivan and Kupx Counties. But it appears our merchants have, with few exceptions, abaudoned these regions to other cities. If they would more generally inaugurates system of business like that pursued by Earl .& Hatcher, they toill regain it. '"' The trade of Cumberland River is in danger of being seri.iu-'y interfered with by the persistent eiorts of Cincinnati' and Louisville mercbants,unless our wholesale houses look more closely after it. So it is with Southern Illinois and Kentucky. We should not remain quiet, aud wait for the business to come to us. There is a valuable trade between Ciro and Memphis on the Mississippi, which might be more generally turned

in this direction. And on all sides

of our mercantile influence with the proper spirit of liberality and enterprise. State Jobs. The Evansville Journal grows frantic over the report of the State House disaster, and thinks some Indianapolis folks want a " fat State job." Evansvillaios are not remarkably modest, we believe, and if a new State House was ordered by the Legislature2 we apprehend our vain glorious friends on the border would put in their share of the bid. The last '"State jib," we believe, was engaged by a gentleman from Evansville. Indianapolis Journal. We were only entering our timely protest against a concerted movement on the part of he local pess of Indianapolis to prepare the way for an expenditure of several millions ot the people's money. The tax-payers of Indiana are much more interested in reducing the rate of taxation and the State debt, than in the early erection of a costly and imposing CapitolWhen the proper time arrives for the building of such an edifice, we doubt not the mechanics and builders of Evansville will be able to repeat the lesson taught the Indianapolis contractors last Spring. It 'is true, "the last State job wa .engaged by a gentleman of Evansville," but it was in competition with a very large number of builders from all parts of the State, including the full Indianapolis delegation. The bids for the new State Building were-opened in the presence of the Governor, the Judges of the Supreme Court, add State Officers, and they all agreed in awarding the contract to Mr. ALLEX, the only bidder from this city: . , An End or a Broil. Eor some years past there has er isted "in the old Fifth (Richmond) Djstriet, a bitter personal feud between the friends and opponents of Hon.' George W. Julia?-, Congressional Representative, in which controversy the Indianapolis Journal has taken a prominent part. We are glad to notice, a disposition on the part of our cotemporary at $ue capital, 'to put an-end to the quarrel, which has resulted in no profit tc the individuals concerned," ahd'hcT'credit to the party. Ashort time -agw, the Washington special correspondent of the Journal, made some allusion to Mr. Julian, not in very good taste, and calculated to' re-open the war. We notice, by a local paragraph in the Journal, that Mr. J ulian was in Indianapolis, last Thursday, and on Friday the following editorial disclaimer appeared: HON. GEO. W. JULIAN. ' In our Washington correspondence a paragraph appeared . in reference to Hon. Geo. W. Julian, the member in Congress from the Fifth District of Indiana, the publication of which we deeply regret. The letter came to hand late at night, and. was passed into the composing room without being seen by the editor of the Journal. We disclaim the intention of joining in any personal warfare upon Mr. J., and regret the publication of that portion of the letter referred to. It is gratifying to know that the Journal will not hereafter lend itself to "any persona warfare upon Mr. J." We make no defense .of Mr. Julian, but we must, at this time, deprecate any broils in the party, and cannot too highly commend our cotemporary for its resolution. In the approaching campaign we should go into the contest united and harmonious, and be prepared to direct all our blows upon the common enemy. Workings or the Bankrupt Law. The number of applications thus far to be discharged under the Bankrupt law, has by no means equalled what was expected. . The act has. however, lead to compromises in very many cases where no proceedings under 'it have beea taken, and in all such eases the benificent purpose of the law has doubtless been accomplished. But the number of interesting and complicated legal questions to which the act has given . rise, has not been overestimated. The New York Times, on this subjaat, say: "One very important question, which has yet to be settled, is as to the effect of bankruptcy proceedings upon legal proceedings pending against the bankrupt when he m .kes his application under the B-iukrupt law. This question, as will be easily sqeri. is a m tltifarious one. One creditor may have simply a suit against the bankrupt, a other may have judgment, another may have an execution aud a levy under it, and yet another miy have a judgment secured on appeal. Arc all these creditors to be brought to the same level, and all to the level ot the other creditors who have no security whatever? Are the State courts and their judgments to be set aside as of

ho account? These ire questions which will be-apt to- Tererve-very-'dif' ferent answers before they are finally determined. We understand that one District Court of the United States has already decided that the bankruptcy proceedings wipe away State Court suits, judgments, executions, and all, while the District Court in Brooklyn has held that where a creditor had obtained a judgment on which he had issued an execution and levied on the debtor's property before the debtor's application was filed, is to be protected. The Illinois Journal mentions another point, which has not yet been deeided whether a sheriff who has levied has the right to keep possession of the property, or whether the Courts of the United States have the power to take it out of his hands. There are decisions of the Supreme Court which hold that the State Courts are so foreign a jurisdiction to the Federal Courts that an officer who holds property under process of the former, cannot be interfered with under process issuing out of the latter. But those decisions were not under the Bankrupt act, and that may be

held to give a mere extended authority. If it does not, it is difficult to see how a ci editor who has got a levy can be interfered with. There is an opening here to have the old State sovereignty contest renewed in a different shape. The Evansville Courier goes for Colonel Victor Bisch,' Auditor of Vanderburgh County, in a style that must be somewhat harrassiog to that eminently conscientious functionary. Why does not the Republican organ of "the pocket" come to the rescue? Is the case indefensible?' It would appear so from the ominous silence of the only paper to which the immaculate Victor can look for assistance in his sore need. That mat-nificeDt fortre.'s, recently erected on Locust Street, ought to mount a few guns for the defense o its persecuted friends. ; Having a Colonel and several other office's on its editorial force, it should make some noise in behalf of " Colonel." Bisch. Indianapolis Herald. Auditor Biscu is in the : hands of the Courts. If he is guilty of all that is charged against him, or any part of it, the facts will appear' in the. trial. This investigation he was anxious to go into when the. charges were fir.-t made against him but, for some reason. Judge Parrett postponed the trial. Until the trial occurs, common decency demands that no . attempt be made to prejudice the minds of the people for or against him. If the author of the above t paragraph . was' as anxious to deal justly as to :alk smartly, he would postpone his insinuations until the result , of the trial was announced. - January -Magazines.-' The Galaxy Opens with the first part of a etory by Henry James, Jr. There is a very readable article on American and Foreign Theatres, by Olive Logan. Richard FrothlnqHam contributes another paper on his " Spiritualistic Experiences," not particularly startling, ,, if true. The author of the " Political Outlook " is not given, but the article will attract aitention," ' nevertheless, and has some good readiug for Republicans. " Burgoyne in a new Light" is one of the most inter, esting articles which has appeared in the Galaxy. The last paper is " by Junius Henri Browne, containing some aphorisms on womeo. The Galaxy promises much interest for the ensuing year. Littell's Living Age for the week ending December 28, contains, Ireland for the Irish; Ultimate End of FenianUm; Sir S. Baker's Abyssinia; Phineas Finn, the Irish Member, by Anthony Trollope; Monetary Conventions and English Coinage; A Bengali Will; Cinderella, by Miss Thackery; besid?s poetry, etc. The next -number, beginning the year, will be printed on new type, and will contain the entire article on the Talmud, which has excited so much interest abroad, as to exhaust six editions of the Quarterly Review containing it; also, the first part of a new story by Charles Liver, aud the usual variety. of other matter.. ... . , Harper's Monthly was received several days ago, and is now to be had at all our book stores an J news depots. It is well sustaining its reputation as the popular favorite. The illustrated articles are Chattanooga, and How we Held it; The Cafes of the Paris Exhibition,: and Memoir of Babyfon. The opening chapters of 31 rs. Craig's new story, The Woman's Kingdom, also contain several fine engravings. The poems and miscellaneous storiesand the essays and anecdotes of the editorial department, are fully up to the standard which this monthly has so long maintained. The Phrenological Journal is

rich - m godd reading and profusely illustrated Sketches of Patrick Henry, Edward Everett, Frederick W. Robertson, Fitz Greene Halleck, with 'Kings, Queens, and Emperors of Europe; Uses of Culture in the . Ministry ; Napoleon on Suicide; The Idiot Trained; A Day on James Island; Florida Indian-; Oliver Cromwell; A Stuck-up Nose; Our Country; The Lion, Lioness, and Cubs Character and Habits; A Quaker Wedding; Pedestrianism ; An Offer of Marriage; The Prince Imperial; with Physiognomy, Physiology, Ethnology, Psychology, and Social Science. Our Young Folks contains a very correct' 6teel portrait of Charles Dickens, who contributes an original story. Mrs. Stowe has an excellent story entitled " Emily's New Resolutions." "Sophia May" (Miss REBECCA Clark) is amogg the contributors. The illustrations are numerous, the puzzles and charades charmingly perplexing, and the uumber in all respects a good one. The Student and Schoolmate comes to us with a newly illustrated cover, not quite natural to its old

friends, yet it bears evidence of being up with the times, and bids fair to maintain its interest and usefulness throughout the new year. Few juvenile magazines have more admirers or devoted friends.
