!i6 Remains Escorted to Oak Hill by a Large Number of Friends. The funeral of " Uncle " Frederieh ! Krcener took ,p!aco last Saturday, and was one of the largest in this city for some time. A largo concourso of friends turned out, including several societies. The funeral prccesrion left his late residence, on Fulton Avenue, shortly after 3 P. 51., and proceeded to St. John's Church ia the following order: Crescent City Silver Band. Union Fire Company. Jactson Fire Company. Evansvillo Cornet Band. Brewers' Association. Evansville HUver Bind. Various Lodges of Odd Fellow. Hearse and Pall Bearers. Carriages. After reaching St. John's Church, the remains were taken within the edifice, and a sermon preached by the Eev. C. Runck. The church wss crowded, and many persons had to remain outside. Mr. Runck's addresa wa3 said to b? most eloquent, but it was in German, and we could not understand his remarks. From the church the procession proceeded to Oak Hill Cemetery, where the last sad rites were performed over his grave by the Odd Fellows, and the ceremonies were beautiful and impressive. The procession contained sity-sov-cn vehicles, and Mr. Kroener's remains were followed to their last resting place by a large number of bincere friends, who mourned the loss of the departed citizen, who was universally beloved by those who knew him. The baud played solemn music oa tho line of the march, the bell on tho Lamasco Engine House 'was tolled, and tho fia? at the Ewgine Ilouie was trimmed with black crape, and was hung at half ra3t in honor of tho deceased, who had beea a member of the Unioa Fire Company. Mr. Krcener will bo mourned by a large circle of true friends. One by one the old citizens pass away, and are succeeded by a new generation, who, in turn, go tho. way of all fiesh, and return to the du3t from which they were created, nis friends and relatives will know him no mora forever on this earth, for he has " Gone to that bourne- from whence no traveler return." The Hebrew Fair. Every one will remember, we trust, that the Hebrew Fair and Festival will bejin at the National Hall to-morrow night. As wo have stated before, it is designod to make this the grandest affair that has occurred for a long while, and nothing has been left undone that could be thought of toward the accomplishment of the desired end. Tho ladies are laboring diligently, and we led satisfied that all will endeavor to make the occasion an interesting on. On last Saturday yc published a partial list cd' the article?, and among others mentioned a G rover & Baker hand sewing machine. Oar information iu this regard was incorrect, as, tke Grover & Baker Sewing Machine Company do not make aDy such machines. It is a diminutive ifi'air, and is of no particular use as a sewing machine, but as many persona might suppose there was such a thiDg as a Grover it Baker hand machine, it is only proper to ituic that such is cot the can as we were misinformed and the mistake was made unwittingly. L; t nil make tirraugemonts to attend the Festival this week. Money Orders fou Business Men. Several of our wholesale merchants, appreciating' the safety of transmission, and promptness of payment of nil money orders on the Post OSice ia this eity, have sent special instructions to their customers and correspondents in the country towns to make all their rcmittanef-s ia (his way. Yv hen application is r.iada it the Post Office, a li.-t of the Mocy Order Offices in the adjoining regions of Indiana, Illiaoi, and Kentucky wil! be furnished. Many of ou'r busi ness men, who have not heretofore been making use of the money order system, are now using it tjuito freely for their remittances 'of lhrutci sums. The Sxuaigut 1,ins Bailkoad. The County Conimissloacrs did not take action ou Saturday on the petition asking ihat an election be ordered to decide whether Pigeon Town ship will donate $110,000 to the Straight Lino ItouJ. Tho matter y:ss postponed uniil Mouday, September 6th. Ia the meantime, the attorneys for the roaljare using all u'eans to get opinions from outside lawyer, to offset the opinion giv"Xn by Judge Iglehart and Col. Chr.s. Denby, who have declared that th-s. Commissioners have no right to o"rdc-r the election. It is a matter in w hich the poople at large, especially those laboring men, who only own tho house and lot on which thoy res'do are deeply interested, for if tha order is made, and the donation voted, the taxes will be very heavy.

Criminal Court. Peter Bohn !

plead guilty to an indictment charging him with selling liquor on Sunday. He was fined $10 and costs. Samuel Wile, a negro, was arraigned on the charge of grand-r larceny. Samuel was cne of a party of three sons of Ilam, who took a notion one night that they ought to be the proprietors of about ?10 which wa3 being carried around by another darkey. A charge was made in force, and the money was obtained. Wile, tor his share of the transaction, was sentenced to the penitentiary for two years, which is the lowest he could get. His " chums " have not been tried yet. While a negro witness was oa the stand, in the course of his evidence he stated that he had been living with a negro woman three months without being married. The Judge told the Sheriff to take charge of him, and committed him to the county jail, in default of $200 bail, on the charge of adultery.. , Geological Specimens. Dr. Stinson.atthe Evansville Library Booms, is rapidly augmenting his collection of geological specimens, and i3 receiving additions almost daily. It is worth a visit from any ono to examine the fmany singular geological specimens on exhibition at the Library. Booms. Among the lato additions wo notice some pure virgin copper ore, from the Lake Superior Mines in Michigan; a very large piece of crystalized quartz, strongly impregnated with copper, also from Michigan; Aberdeen and Peterhead granite and peat rr.oss, from cTcotland, lately presented by Wm. Troupe; Stalagmite,' from Mt. Vernon, presented by Be v. It. Andrtis; Stalactites, from Pructt's Cave, Monroe County, Ind., donated by Thomas Peck; and last, though not least, a tar fish, an Echinus and a Trilobite. All these curiosities are very interesting. ' - - Recoudeh's Cotmr.-The Recorder had a regular old-time " field-dsy," on Saturday. William Riley, airaignei for fighting, was discharged. George Williams, a hilz private ia the first regiment off thai "benzine brigade," for being drank, was fined ?j 25, which he paid. i James MaConaie, for the same offense, was. taxed 3 25. Paid. . Alonzo Brannan, foj having indulged too liberally ia furiil oil, wus taxed $5 23, which he liquidated. Jane Kelly, a colored woman, fur fighting, was fined ?j 10, which she nrt!d. Thomas Leonard, another recruit to the benzine regiment, was too liberal in his potatious to Bacchus, and allosved tho fluit extract to get tho Letter of him, for which ho was assessed $"i 10. This individual had another wcal;nc?, also, it seems, caused by a too irce use of tho fusil oil, and undertook to play the role of policeman, but as a "star " performer was not a dueoef;3. As a contributor to the city treasury he performed much better , and a deposit of $8 0 made it all tight. Ob"R K'entlcicy Ciuculatiox. Wo are 'xaviug almost daily evidence of tho appreciation of the Journal by our friend?, in Kentucky. On Saturday wo received a club of twentj'three subscribers from a single post office in Webster County, tnd a few days ago a ciub of thirty-two sub scribers from. Hopkins County. In theso two counties the Journal has a larger circulation than any other paper published out of the county. Subscriptions from Webster County will be received by Mr. John Nasbitt, of Dixon, and from Hopkins County by Mr. W. M. Young, or Madisoaville. PLUG Muss. A regular fight took rnce on Saturday 'uightt the Paradise Garden,' kept by Ilagar. A lot of young Lamasco-bummers, as we are informed, went to the Garden and asked for bomething to drink, aud got quite disorderly. Ilagar refused to give them liquor, aud told them he wanted to cbso up. One of, them, named George Ilahn, got very disor derly and attempted to assault Hagir, wh'j grabbed a p;tcher avA broke it over his head, causing soiuo ugly wounds. Ilagar also got hurt some, ouviie hands, w; believe. The matter will be investigated to day before Recorder Willard. ; ? . Tan Survey. The Directors of tho Evans rille, Carmi & . Padacah Railroad, held a meeting on last Saturday evening, to take action in regard to the surveying of: the route for the road. A surveyor was not chosen, "but on motion it was, ordered that John A. Reitz be authorized to secure a surveyor and take the matter under his supervision. " It is desired that the survey be made as soon as possible, so as the claim3 of the vari ous rou'es can be examined into. JEsS"0 The Criminal Court Boom is 'iJie great resort for . all idle people. We cannot understand the attraction tbwt causes persons to sit during the het.t and listen to tedious trials, whi'ch arc generally devoid of interest. But the people seem to take grout iuterest, and if the Judge mys anything, they will rise and leaa for ward, as if afraid of not hearing what he said. The attraction of tho ptace is something singular to u-. jggT Nancy Reed, alias Nancy Fat, who was fined a short time since, and given a few hours to leave town, has returned again. Our city laws need remodeling in some way. W o should have a workhouse for Euch characters a3 Nancy. Delicious. Mias " Pet" Snell has seat us satnples cf the peaches and grapes grown on tho " Sterrett" grounds. The peaches aro the largest and finest flavored wo have seen this year. Thank you, " Pet."

Robbery. Some iow-down scallawag, whose name should have been on the State Prison register long ago, on Saturday morning robbed the fruit aEd cigar stand of C. Bcrnheimcr, next doer to the Post OSee, taking three boxes of cigars and one of tobacco, the whole valued at about 612. Although there was plenty of fruit on hand, the thief took nothing but the tobacco and cigars. Such low down thieving as this would disgrace Cairo.

Teachers' Institute. Tfe e Sc h ool Teachers' Institute will begin to-day, at tho High School building, and continue daring the week. The Institute will be conducted by Prof. Gdw, and tho session will no doubt be an interesting cc, and will be of great benefit to all teachers that participate. Prof. Barnabas C. llobbs. State Superintendent of Public Instruction, has written to Prof. Gow that he will be present some time during the session. A full attendance of teachers is desired, and all are requested ta take such school booki as they 'nave oa hand. , GLORIOUS Rain. After a parching drought of several weeks, it is with pleasure that we chronicle the fact that we had two copious raina yesterday. Ono fell early in the morning and tho other ia the afternoon, the latter lasting about five hours. By our dispatches we notice tho rain was general, and it will have an'iaesleulably 1 good effect upon the growing crops. We feel truly thankful for the fine raias that fell yesterday. .ARTisTiQ. Wa wero: shown la3t week, at the oSco "of Warren & Mattlscn,'' a-hhautiful oil painting, the work cf Miss Mary , Potter, formerly of New York, but now cn a visit to Judge Warren's in 'this city. The painting ia jizo is about three by four feet, aud is very beautiful. It is a scene in the Alps, representing a small lake, surrounded by stec-p mountains, and a magnificent sky viw ia the distance-. :This pictura gives evidence of genius ia Miss Potter that only needs proper -cultivation to make her a perfect artist." Those desirous to look at it can do so by dropping into the office of Warren k Mattison. Mis Potter has painted several other very fine landscapes while sho has been in the city. : 5 : Not so. Tho Cairo Bulletin had a very jnthc-tie account of the mutilation of the body of Copclaad, the Mail Agent of tho Cumberland. Among other thing?, it said his right arm was torn off at the shoulder. From Capt. Lowth, we learn Miat the only marks of injury n:an:fe-;t on the body were, the skull w&3 broken oa the left side of his head, and the. right und:r jaw was broken. 3" The pubiio . ehools ot Indianapolis arc to be supplied with fire extinguishers.

ruroiher Jiivrr Iu ,,i set Third Pa'jK. We have a hope that the heated term is now broken. This section of the country was visited yesterday morning by a heavy raia, attended with terrific thunder. About 3 o'clock another rain set in, which continued without cessation till a late hour last night, with a prospect of holding on till morniDg. Though the rain was not vehement, it wa3 steady, an 1 a large amount cf water fell. If it was general, extending to the headwaters, it will at least check the further docline of the river. The temperature yesterday was much plcasantcr than for some days past, though it was still hot, tho mercury standing at OG5. It dropped below rM in the evet-ing. The only additional arrivals up to midnight last, were the Rose Hitc, Louisville aid return; Clarksville, Cairo to Louisville; Mollic Norton, Henderson and return. OThe John Lumsden for Cairo, and Hartford for Green River departed on Saturday with splendid trips The Rose Hite was detained by getting aground at French Island, and did not get down till yesterday :norning, and left on her return trip about noon. She hid a fair packet trip. Capt. W. R. Helicroftis in command. Tho Clarksville passed up yesterday mcrniug pretty light. From Mr. James Joslce, who was a passenger by the Clarksville, wo Icarn that the Miunccla sunk one of her barges at Hurricano Island. It is understood the barge struck a snag, and will prove a total loss. The freight was being picked up all along the river below......... Wo are promised no abundance of packets ia the Cairo trade during low water The Fanny Brandies, Capt. Henry Miller, is announced to lcavo at 1 p.m. to-day, and. will take tho mail. The Bran Jeis is a neat, good steamer, with pleasant passenger sppcintments. Captain Milkr and Kit Rudd, her chief officers, are pleasant and obliging gentlemen Tho Clara Scott is announced to leave for Cairo at 4 P. M. on Tuesday, with Captain Allen Duncan in command, and Cash Thomas and Guy Vinyard in the office The Umpire is also announced as tho regular Cairo Packet Company's steamer for Tuesday evening, in charge of tho excellent crew of the Quickstep It was reported on Saturday that the Romeo would leave for Cairo this evening. She is very light.'and if t he goes out will doubtless go through without detention Yesterday, however, parties were talking about chartering her to send her up the river Tho organization of the Evansville, Cairo Memphis Packet Company wa perfected on Saturday, at the office of R. K. Dunkersoa & Co., by tho election cf tho following directors: Chas. Vicle, John S. Hopkins, Watt F. Nisbet, David J. Mackey and Robert K. Dunkcrson. Tho Board cf Directors was then organized by tho election of the following officers: Walt. F. Nisbef, President, John S. Hopkins, Treasurer, and Robert K. Dunkerseu, Secretary. Captain II. T. Dexter was elected General Superintendent. This is a strong combination, and will command the confidence of the business men and shippers, not only of this city, but also along the entire line. Tho stockholders comprise many of the wealthiest and best business men of this city and some of the prominent towns along the river. The Directory, a? will be seen, is composed of some of our most sa;;aciou3 and successful business men; and with the assistance of the larjjc experience and indomitable energy of Captain Dexter, cannot fail of success. The tew boat now being built for this trade, it is expected, will be completed by tho first of December, and certainly before the first of the new year, alter which another new beat will probably bo built. The ultimato des:gn of the organization, as wo learn, is to extend tho lino to Memphis, as the btyle of the company denotes. This can readily be accomplished by placing four goo J, fast beats ia the trade, run ning two boat3 twice a week to Cairo, and the other two to make weekly trips to Memphis, thus giving us a daily line to Cairo, acu a scrni-wcckly line to Memphis. The rapidly ia creasing business of the city demands such an arrangement, and we aro glad to see that this great desideratum is about to be accomplished. Captain Mather is in command of the Night ingale, which will leave hero to day in place of the Taraseon, and Mile3 D. Warren and Jesse Jackson are her clerks George J.
