VOL. XXL WEDS ESDI 1', 21 Y li, 1870. The aDnonnconieat by the Mayor of Louisville, that he will enforce the city ordinances regulating the open ing and closicg of drinking saloons on Sundays, has caused tbo Raloon keepers to fear that the day which La3 heretofore proved their best day for business, will hereafter bo tbe "dullest" day of the week. TriE Sentinel is respectfully referred to the city of Shelbyvillo, as furnishing another of the nstoundiog "Democratic victories," over which it went into such f alinaceou3 ecstacies. The Republican gained ono member of the Council." elected a Councilman in one of tic Ward., over a very popular Democrat, ly a gain of ? at; Jeast sevenly-fivo votes in that 000 locality, while the Republican majority in the wholo city i. about eighty-five, a pain over the Kcajorify for Mayor in lSGDof seventy-seven. "The elections through out the State indicate the decline and overthrow" of the party which has been on the under side of the fiht for about fen years. : The Sentinel made a Blight mistake in its first arti- . ' . Ml 1 cic, but we supposj ; it win make baste to correct its error. Indianap olis Journal. v TnK United States Reeisterand Re ceiver's office yesterday sold forty tracts of land, 1.C00 acres, in this State, in Crawford, Ncwtoo, Daviess, V igo, Avnox ? v hitney and Jrerry CountieB, at a price averaging, ?2 25 to $250 per acre. The tracts had been erroneously marked on the map as swamp and canal lands, and bad been held by tho Government on that account. A gentleman from Marion, Ohio, named Israel R. Watts, applied for tho whole list, as did Judees Martindale and G: 11. Chapman. The latter were purchasers to a large amount. Hon. J. D. Ilowland was tbo purchaser , of filly one acres in Sullivan VottQly.-Indianapoli$ Journal. ' Wo suspect that this sala is ominous of trouble for somo.of, tho farmers in Davices, Knox and Perry Counties, who tlick they own land which was erroneously marked,1 and which has been purchased by Eomebody else. . , ,"- letter from Plfeo Coaatr. Petersburg!, Ind., May 9, 1870. Editors Journal : 1 Having little to do and something to 6ay, I again attempt to write a few lines that may bo of interest to your readers. 1st. I begin with Petersburg, and report considerable improvement under way, such a3 building new. houses ! and repairing old ones, which makes aa think that our people have not lost all energy and life. Mr. GoodJet Morf .in, has lately finished a good esidence. adjoining pur town, at a cost of near $30,000. Uur School Truhtees have procured plans and specifications from one of the architects of your city for a twelve thousand dollar school house, and we havo every renson to bclieTC they will pooq let the contract for the building. Quito a number of the citizens of the placo are building and rebuilding in such a way that one can easily Bee that we are now on tho upward tendency. -We would build a new Jail, but it is seldom if ever we need a building of tho kind. Our prosperity extends to almost all parts of tho county. Farmers are improving their farms, procuring better kinds of stock and farming on more scientific principles, than over beToro, Our wheat and grass looks remarkably well, and if the season permits, wo will plant, moro corn and tobacco, than we have in any one season before. ' - We arc looking for two or three railroads to develop our mineral roBourcos. . SpeakiDg of minerals, re minds me that the pooplo of tho wholo State, are paying tax to raise the amount required for tho salary of Prof. Cox, our. State Geologist, and as yet a certain ring up in Clay County aro all that have teen able to secure the services of that official. 'In' fact he Beems to ignore the " 1'oclcl," tho place from whenco be came, and has not yet learned that the State of Indiana embraces nearly a hundred counties.- -- " We. of Pike, are so used to being neglected that we are not disposed to gruynble for ourselves, but we would like to see other counties .in oor part of the State visited by that public functionary commonly called iState Geologist,- but latterly moro properly called Clay County Geolo gist. iour3, truly, :;, ' .

Editors Journal: ' This morning's issue of tho Jocrnal copies an . article from the. Vincennes Times, wbichorcibly reminds me of a littlo girl I ODce heard boasting that she had been Measured for a pair of new shocp, "and didn't cry." Vinccnncs -has just been measured for new shoes, in the form of a new Union Depot, and the editor of the Times does not merely' cry; bo fairly howls. Just listen, j Ho " says the transfer of the Ohio - & Mississippi cassencer depot to the location of the new Union uepot.ior an me rauroaus, at most a short quarter of a mile west of tho old depot of one rod,will diive away all ths trade of Illinois, which has hitherto come to that city, fie is recommended to go toTerre Haute, where a Union Depot i3 located further from tfce city business houses than the Vinccnncs Union Depot is to be, and is about be located still further off than tbe present one, and yet tho Illinois trade in Terro Haute is so good that tho St. Louis managers of St. L.. A & T- H, R find it profitable and necessary to run a local passenger morning train, from Mattoon into Terre Haute, and out again every evening. The Timet man says the Union Passenger Depot, will, as matter of roux,:'., be f ollowed by a Union Freieht Depot. Well, and if it should, is its facilities for exchange and transportation which brings business to a city,

or is it obstruction of exchange and transfer whieh.build3 up a city? Rut on this point, also, the gentleman is referred to both Terre Haute and Indianapolis, where every railroad has its separate freight depot, and unfortunately a long way a part, notwithstanding, union depots for passengers have existed in those cities from the besinnine.

The Timt also charges the E. & C. Railroad with always oppo:Jn the interests of Vincenncs; wbeitas. the managers, from tbe first, wanted to run the H. & C. Railroad through Vincennes, up tho bank of the Wa bash, and have a passenger depot cf its own close to the centre of business, TT: v . 1 or a union xepoton mo river, n necessary, at the O. & M. crossincr; and its present move for a Union Depot is a move to abolish the old Junction House, halt a mile out rf town, which, in tho ab3ence ot a Union de pot in town, is an absolute necessity to tho Road: which Junction House waa fast growing into a Union Depot for all lloads, and was really doiog tho hotel business of Vincennes, outside of and distant, bs it was, from the corporate limits of tho city. The Union Depot movement U a highly conservative of tho interests of Vincennes as of ths railroads. It is a necessity to all interests. It will bring passengers to and through Vin cennes who would otherwise avoid the route on account of tbe pr-rplexitiea of transfer. It will insure and perpetuata a first-class eating house al ways an attraction to any routo of travel, and tho Union Depot i3 located near enough to the business of the city to transfer passengers between the city- and its hotels and depot with convenience, either by omnibus or street railroad. Tbo Vincennes Council, so far from deserving censuro for the aot, or tbe haste in which it was done, have shown themselves awako to the true interests of tho city, and have done both themselves and the city a credit and an honor by, their prompt and judicious action in the premises.
