WEDNESDAY, liAKCil 16, 1810. FBAKKisaPaiviLEaE. The Vienna (Illinois) Artery eaya the lion. John Jil. Crebs, member of Cocgrcsa from the Egypt District, is frankiBg circulars of a "Water Cure establish ment to his constituents. Perhap3 Mr. Crebs regards the Water Cure as the most eificacious that can be used by his constituents. Shaep. The New Albany editors are displaying signs of belligerency. To-;-" article which appeared in the G&?: " ,'aZ of Saturday the Ledger very emphatically says: " If this articlo i3 sancticned by the proprietor of in at paper, or by Dr. Rowley, the endorser of the proprietor, we wish to know it, and will, in the future, deal with them as they deserve." Thia sounds like cistols and coffee for two. The New Albany Ledger says we are in distress over the prosperity of New Albany, because we sympathet ieally alluded to the fact that tho completion of the bridge necessarily attached that pretty little town as a suburb to Louisville. The Ledger Beems to regard the absorption of the town bv its larger neighbor as an in dleation of DrosDerity: Wc confess 'we did not see it in that liglat. Inas much as oar merchants compete with Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Loui3 in wholesaling goods, we presume they do not make many of their purchases at little county towns. The following is a statement of the amount of the National debt at the periods named, less cash in the Treas ury: January 1. 1791 75,463,478 Iohnirrl 45.209. ISI January 1,1816 127'3?

The Courier of yesterday mustered courage sufficient to deny that the Democrats aro responsible for the present license law. It says tho Legis lature of 1S58-9 was Republican, and cites the fact that a Republican Speak er was elected in the House. We respectfully submit that the same Legislature which elected Col. R. J. Ryan, a Demccrat.Clerk of the House, could not have been very strongly Re publican. But the responsibility for tho present license law is easily estab lished. Col. Calvin Jones, editor of tho Rocknort Democrat, who was a member of the Legislature of 1S59, and also Berved on the Committee on Temperance, has the manliness to tell ho truth. He says: "The license law. which now stands upon the Statute books, is tho act that we did succeed in passing just at the close of the session, not, however, bv a strict party vote, AND WE are pleased to say that tJiere tcere more DEMOCRATS than KEPUBLI CAN3 voted for the law." Col. Jones, also asserts that Governor Willard gave the law his signature willuut any hesitation. This we think i3 sufficient on the voint of Darty responsibility. The fhurier will hardly deny that Col Jones is a competent witness. With reference to the Sunday pro vision of the law, Col. Jones also testifies positively and truthfully. He says: There being no penalty affixed for the violation of the Sunday clause was a very great oversight in drawing up the bill, because it teas not only the intention of the committee who framed the lill, but it was the intention of the Leaislature that jyassed the bill, to en force that clause, as well as any other clause in the act : and that clause was enforced all over the State, until it reached the Sunreme Court of the State, when it waa ascertained that there was no penalty attached. Furthermore. Col. Jones thinks Judge Robinson deserves credit for enforcing the law, and tha Courier is deserving of great credit for taking a most active part in securing his appointment. A rice Compliment. In its more serious moments the Courier sometimes gives expression to compliments which we cannot but appreciate, coming, -as they do, from a political opponent. The following tribute to the ability and vivacity ot the Journal as a newspaper wo clip from the Courier of yesterday, and assure our cotemporary that we shall exert ourselves to maintain the high opinion which it seems to have of our merits aa a newspaper: Astonishing. Of late tho Journal ha3 by its profound knowledge of the most difficulty questions of science, religion, medicine, &c., astonished even those who knew it best. The profundity 'of its logic and force of argument often astonish the most learned of our critics; and, occasionally, there are flashes of wit which exceed in brilliancy the most dazzling meteor which appears in the firmament, or even the most startling flash of lightning which breaks on the astonishing vision when least expected. These flashes of wit are like a clap of thunder in a clear sky; for well as the reader i3 aware of the late acquired power of the paper, he is astonished nevertheless. And again, through the columns of that paper i3 " breathed " forth the most " burning and withering sarcasm." sarcasm that may be seen " through, the folds of the paper," sarcasm that, had the writer been in the place of poor Cox, when Butler made his "6hoo fly" sally of wit, would have come to her rescue, and, like the tide of the ocean sweeping over the beach, would have fcompletely overwhelmed the auda- . cious Butler and driven him from his seat in Congress forever. It is truly wonderful. Most astonishing.

Oar Southern Railroad Connections. Oar readers may cot generally be aware of the importance of the railroad connections south which will bo secured by the completion of the Evansville, Henderson & Nashville Railroad. A railroad is already in operation from Nashville to Decatur. Another road is being constructed from

Decatur to the Gulf, portions of it having already been graded, others recently put under contract, and all ot it occupied by a company able and determined to finish the enterprise at an early day. This read is called the "Alabama South and North Railway." When completed, the northwest will have almost an " air line " from Chicago to the Gulf through our city. This lino will be more direct than Dr. Pierce's North and South Road can possibly be on its present location, and will prove a ruinous competitor to that enterprise in case it ever succeeds so far as to have locomotive pa3s over the entire con templated line. That portion of this great thoroughfare north of the Ohio to Chicago will be completed during the present year. It will bisect some of the finest mineral regions in our State as-well aa Illinois. The line south from Decatur will also traverse portions of Alabama which is said to contain coal equal in value to the celebrated anthracite coal of Pennsylvania; iron ore equal in rich ness to the Lake Superior and Iron Mountain varieties is also said to ex ist in great quantities. Located cen trally oa this great thoroughfare Evansville cannot occupy a second rjosition among the cities of the State longer than one or two more decades. Railroad Wanted. Poseyville, Ind., March 14, 1870 Editors Journal : We see ia tho Journal that there is a railroad in contemplation, run ning from Evansville, by the way o Carmi, thence to MoLeansboro Illinois. We, as oitizens of this part of the country, writo to you for in formation, waotiDg to know why it would not be better, and cheaper, run niog from Fort Branch to Carmi thence to iJicLeansDoro, running this way. here could be a road with but very little grading, if any, and would bo much nearer ten miles any how; and ten miles of railroad, we suppose, would cost some considerabl amount of money. A road running this route would pass tnrougn a splendid portion or country, all the way to the Wabash river, and lrora Jbort Uranch to the river could bo built with as little co3t as any other road of the same length; also, thi3 would add greatly to the facilities of the farming community in the water-melon region, more, in fact, than any one would think who has not been acquainted with the mel on trade. The profits of this articlo alona amount to about $30,000, yes, $ 10,000 every year. Ibis is also a splendid place lor all kinds of vegetables. Grapes and ber ries can be raised in abundance, with many other articles too tedious to mention, and we have not the least doubt but what the money could be raised immediately to build tho road on this route. Why this would not be the cheapest and best route in every respect, wo are unable to com prebend or to say. So we writo hop ing to hear soon that this may be the route that tho people and the press may unite upon, with that will and determination that cannot fail. We write to learn ; take notice we are not citizens of Posey ville; we want the road to run about four and a half miles north of Poseyville, through the centre of the water melon region. Your3, respectfully. Cleaveland. From tha Chics go Post. Fight for the Common School. Iho The battle against the Common Schools of America has begun. In its ranks, whether they know it or not, are to be found all those who believe that secular knowledge is profane, and that tobe of any use, a school teacher must give instructions in theology. The Roman Catholics, for instance, look on theological training a3 being of such prime importance that a school without it is wholly worthless. So they have striven to divide and divert the school fund, and they bare not been alone in their efforts. By a log-roll-ling trick a provision for supporting sectarian schools in New York city was smuggled into the tax levy of lbbU. Uy authority ot that miserable scheme of plunder there was diverted to sectarian purpose, during the last year, a vast total of 528,742! This sum was divined among schools and other instit jtions under the auspices of the Roman Catholic, Episcopal, Hebrew, Dutch Reformed. Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist churches. ' The question, which church obtained the most? i3 not a vital one; it does not affect the principle of the thing. The church that received the least, was guilty of a robbery of the public fund, and gave countenance to a measure that threatens the common school system with utter ruin. So in Missouri. A bill has passed the lower branch of the Legislature, almost unanimously, requiring the School Board to appropriate to every private school in St. Louis $10 for each scholar who may receive free tuition in such school. If thi3 bill were to become a law, it would substitute private theological schools for the ex cellent publio schools of that city, almost abolishing the common school within its ranee, and infiictin? a ca tastrophe not easily estimated. This ought to be understood and denounced as a sectarian onset to plunder and destroy our publio schools. "What thenr we are asked. Would you make heathen of our children? Would you banish all religious and moral training from the schools?" No, but it is well to keep constantly and carefully in mind the radical difference between religion and theology. Religion, ii its higher sense, is a recognition of the father hood ot Uod. and tne brotherhood ot Man, and a cordial love of both. Theconcerning God, the angels, the prophets, the future. Theology is what a man thinks, religion is what a man does, or feels that he ought to do. Religion is conduct; theology is belief. In religion, men mainly agree; in theology, they universally differ, . if they are independent . to think at all. (. Reliffirn ought to be taught in schools, and it ia; theology ought never to be allowed to put its foot

within tho precincts built end sup- j ported by the public fund. Religion : cannot be kept out of schools; it comc3 gratefully in every moral precept, in every page of just counsel in every lcs3on of virtue in the reading book, whether chosen from Christian or Pagan pen- from the New York Observer, the Talmud or the Zend A vesta, from William Pitt, Confucius, Epictetus, or Henry Ward Beecher.

i. common Bcnool room, men maneed, is by no means the profane place that it is represented to be by some ot those who would make it tne arena of wrangling theologies. It is urged by many that the men who compile the school-readers 'wholly ignore the moral and relig ious sentiments. Is it not trTc, on the contrary, that four T"?0d out of five are devoted to itculcating such sentiments? It is true, and rightly true, that theological instruction is omitted. It will not yet a while be profitable to alternate the experiments of chemistry with metaphysics, or even with moral advice, nor to sandwich theological dogmas between the problems ot the xvule ot xhree. We have no etato religion; no prescribed theology. This nation is founded on the absolute right of pri vate judgment, and only a man Who is a confirmed and intolerant sectari an will permit himself to express contempt.for the conscientious scruples of his neighbor. 2io weakening ot the publio school; no robbery of the fund for the pay of sectarian teachers ! We are a composite people, and our theology is as checkered as our blood. If parents desire to have their children taught the dogma of any particular creed, let them pay for it extra but not a dollar from the common treasury I Here must the impending battle be fought. We must leave our baggage and put ourselves in light marching order. Let no side issue divert us; let no subordinate or col lateral auestion divide or weaken us Religion is necessary, indispensable; it is the soul of law. the basis of order, the inspiration of a true life; but tbeoloey is an intellectual 6uper structure which every man must ereot for himself. It Stingeth Like an Adder. Last nizht the police officers picked up in the street Peter Welsh and his wife, both in a state oi intoxication, the former well nijrh past locomotion With them were their two children, a little boy and eirl, the former about four Years of ase. and the latter six The boy was nearly frozen when brought to the Hammond Street Station, where his disgraced parents wero placed in the lock-up. It was as distressing a picture as is ever seen in this receptacle of the fallen, do craved, and vicious. In one cell was tho father, too far gone to make a noise, unconscious of his own shame and his family's degradation. In an other was the mother, thinly clad her body half clothed, her face bloated from intoxication, her eyes bloodshot and her hair disheveled taking upon her lips the name of the Holy V lrem. for whose sake she lm plored release. On a bench, sitting bv the stove, m full view ot the be sotted mother, was the flaxen haired bov. with rotund face, hatless, shoe less, ragged and dirty, and by his side his sister, two years his senior, her frail form half hidden by the Bhreds of a dirty calico lrock. and legs, and arms and face : begrimed with black The children in the face were by no means bad looking, and as they Eat with a stranze eadness upon their young faces, it was s tableau that spoke more powerfully for temperance than the woi -painting ot the guted Goueh. and said touch not with silent eloqence which language may in . . ... . vain enaeavor to attain. vincinnau Gazette, lth. It seems that Mr. A. D. Condit and others are engaged in buying up Gov eminent lands in this county that have been settled upon. A few weeks ago they swooped .down on a piece of land occupied by George urismore. and he has been compelled to pay them a considerable sum of money to get rid of them. On last Saturday, one of the parties claimed possession of fourteen acres of Mrs Jcsiah Peck's farm. The night be fore he had built a shed upon it and slept in it to comply with the law, and when ordered off the place Satur day, he assorted that tho land be longed to him, that it was a piece of lost land, and that he bad entered it at the Government land office, and had the patent for it. This land is held at one hundred dollars an acre. Our farmers should learn for themselves whether they occupy lands not purchased fiom the Government, and if so, settle it at once and forever. Elsewhere will be found a card upon this matter. Washington Gazette. Such occurrences as that at Evansville. last week, will react with fearful effect against what would otherwise bo a laudable e ffort upon the part of workingmen to aid themselves by combinations. The printers in the daily newspaper offices "struck" for some reason, and for other reasons the proprietors refused to accede to their demands, filling the vacated situations with other workmen. One of these, by the name of Edward WolvertOn. was assaulted by a company ot the strikers, one of whom struck him upon the head with aslung-shot, from the effect of which he died. Such gross outrages as these, altogether too common in cases of "strikes," tell most severely against the craft under whose auspices they occur. Ind. Journal. DENTISTS. DR.
