WHAT IS THE GOVERNOR'S SALARY? Mr. Editor: Last week you published a short article from me in relation to the pay of our Governor. That article was dictated in no unkind spirit, but simply to show that the complaints made by some, because of the smallness of the salaries of a portion of our public officers, should not apply to that of the Executive. The article was but a simple reference to statutes and facts. I discover, however, that it has somewhat distracted the nerves of his excelency, and that his trepidation has communicated itself to the well meaning editors of the Sentinel, and induced tbem to insert an editorial, soundly denying certain of my statements, and vouching the present State officers for authority an article, I fear, too hastily penned, and, for them, unfortunate. It has imposed upon me the necessity of further examining the subject, with a view of vindicating the truth of my allegations. That examination compels me to confess that I did write' my former communication somewhat in the dark, as the Sentinel charges, and I trust I shall now be able to let m upon the question a few additional rays of light. The Governor, through the Sentinel, does not deny; ' , 1st, His salary, (as drawn,) $1,500. 2d. His free rent of house and furniture, which is, of course, the same as so much salary, as other officers have to pay rent for their houses. $500. ' . -. - 3d, The sum 6tated for visiting Uniuersity, fec $270, ' ; 4th, The sum stated for annual visit to inquire the amount of the 3 per cent, fund $150. 5th, The appropriation of the $3,000 for the Swamp L&nd Patents $3,000. . But, as to this item, he says he has not touched one cent of it. Very well; I did not say he had, and therehas been scarcely time since thelaw came into force to enable him to get it but he will get it he intends to get if, and he can get it. If not, why did he get the appropriation? If it was thrust into the law against his will by the Fusion Legislature, why did he sign the Bill? Why not veto it. Surely the money was needed for other purposes. Why, then, did the Legislature throw it at him if he did not want it? 6th, He admits the item of twenty-three hundred dollars for furniture and repairs for his house. ( See section 22, L. 1 855, p. 9. ) $2,300. But as to this, he says, it was mostly to repair damage by fire. What fire? When was the Governor's house on fire? Let us have the. particulars. The only damage by fire, ever heard of in Indianapolis, was the burning of one end of the stable; a loss repaired by an expense of from thirty to fifty dollars. Now, we would like to see the bills for repairs and improvements, &c, that have absorbed the 2,300 dollars, 7th. He denies that any allowance is made for family expenses. Very well. He may be right. But if he is, there is somethingi further of a very singular character that requires an ex- " planation from him. By section 22, p. 9, Laws 1855, 2300 dollars is appropriated for furniture, .repairs, fcc, of the Governor's house, out-buildings, &b., and fence; and by section one, page one, of the same volume of laws, the laws of the same session, we find appropriated the further sum: "for the Governor's house, six hundred dollars !" Now, what is that six hundred dollars for? If it is not for family expenses, and if it is not so used, what is it for? He had already got 2300 dollars for repairing, papering, furnishing, &c, and now, what is the additional 600 dollars for? This is for 1855. And by the 5th section of the same act we find appropriated for 1856 the further sum of 600 dollars "for the Governor's house." What is this sum for? The Governor must outrageously abuse the house and furniture, if it' takes these enormous sums annually to make them good. 8th. A word about the contingent fund. He admits the expenditure of the fund, but says it is for State purposes. Is not the expenditure of that fund without accountability, and who knows for what it is expended? To whom is the report made of the manner and objects of its expenditure? And that fund which, for wantof information, we put down at 1,000 dollars, we find is 3,000 dollars a year. And here we must ask for a little information about some two or three of these appropriations. We would prefer that the Governor should furnish it to the editors of the Sentinel in preference to stale extracts from his speeches. Before the reply of the Governor in the Sentinel, we had supposed everything about these was all right.' We are led into doubts by examination. When we find a Christian swearing with the profane, and praying with the devout; debauching with the profligate, and professing chastity with the monks; drinking with the toper, and preaching teetotalisra with the abstinent, we suspect the man. So, when we find a loud professor of economy handling large amounts of the public money, we think it is well to look after him. We find, in looking into past practice, that during the administration of Gov. Whitcomb, there was annually appropriated "for. the Governor's house, 200 dollars," and "for contingent expenses of the Governor, 1,000 dollars." See the annual acts of appropriation. But soon after the advent of his present excellency, to wit: in 1850, (see laws 1850, p. 5,) there wasappropriated, "for the Governor's house, one thousand dollars." In 1851, (Laws of that year, p. 19,) for the Governor's house 500 dollars, and for J it at the highest market price. Tyei

contingent fund 1200 dollars. In 1852, (Laws, p. 33,) Governor's house, 500 dollars; contin gent fund, 700 dollars. In 1853, (Laws of that year, p. 4.) Governor's house, 300 dollars; contingent fund, 1 500 dollars, and miscellaneous disbursements, 1700 dollars. . In 1854, (Laws of 1853,) Governor's house, 500 dollaTS, miscellaneous disbursements, 1300 dollars. And now we come to 1855, the year of fusion, when the appropriations are, for furniture, repairs, kc, 2300 dollars ! ! and besides this, for Governor's house, 600 dollars ! ! ! and contingent fund, thrkb thousand dollars ! For 1 856 also, the contingent fund is three thousand dollars. Don't forget to add the Swamp Land Stamp Tax. Now, for what have all these annual appropriations for the Governor's house been expended? And why this enormous increase of the contingent fund? We do not pretend to charge that that fund is mis-spent; but being ignorant in the matter, we would like to know what it is expended for. Do the books of the Auditor and Treasurer show? But my article is growing too long. I will postpone to a future number.' Day Light.

Gallaudet, June, 1855. Mr. Editor. I extract the following good pieces; they may prove to be and do some good to your readers: - I once knew a man who married a fine woman. At first, he was very affectionate, his moral feelings were active, and for a time he studied for the ministry; but, in imbibing the habits of chewing and smoking, he became less pious and affectionate to his wife, and by the time that he smoked thirty cigars per day, he would swear like a pirate, and abuse his wife most shamefully. Not being able to endure his treatment any longer, she commenced drinking to drown her trouble, and soon put an end to her life. I attended a meeting one Sabbath evening, in the town of Agusta, Georgia, when a fine looking young man waited on a young lady, up the aisle, to a seat that was in a contagious pew to the one in which I sat. Soon he began to spit out into the aisle. For the novelty of the thing, I looked at my watch, and found that he spit ten times in two minutes. He continued at that rate for nearly an hour, which made so large a puddle that the ladies were obliged to raise their dresses and step over, as they would step over the mud in the streets, with no very pleasant countenances. I remained to see them through their difficulty. This young man joined in singing the closing hymn like a christian. Thought I, perhaps he is one, then looking down on the floor, said I, no, he cannot be. At the close of the meeting, the crowd were prevented from passing out as fast as they otherwise could, in consequence of the dirty puddle they had to ford. He became im patient waiting for his dulceina, and spoke out, quite abruptly, "where the devil is she!" Then, 1 thought, no sign either of a Christian or Gallant. A friend of mine. Dr. W. J., I am sorry to say, uses tobacco; I have repeatedly urged him to discontinue the habit. He broke off once, but says that he had all the symptoms of delerium tremens in its worst form, he therefore commenced chewing again as a remedy. This shows that he had not sufficient perseverance, or that his system craved and depended on an artificial stimulent, induced by a long and excessive habit TO EUNICE D. Dearest Eunice a word with thee, 'Tis good to thus commune With those we love while here on earth, . Though part we must so soon. , I would that I like Eunice now, - Was young and free again That I might live and bide my time Quite free from sin and pain. How gently glides the balmy breeze, Or falls a flake of snow; So comes the stealthy bane of sin That tells a tale of wo. This life hath many wily snares In which are caught the young, And Oh! how thoughtless do they fly Through life to death unsung. In youth beware of blighting sins, 'Twill add much pain and strife; . Let not one Evil act be thine, 'Twill mar thy after life. Let Virtue be your purest gem, And love your richest mine; Let friendship grow within thy heart, And flow like milk and wine. Oh! let me hope to know thee good, No blight or stain be shown Within thy spotless maiden heart, Nor fault in thee be known. Then may you live as all do live, On yonder happy shore; ( That we may meet again when I And Eunice are no more. Dexter. Franklin Ind. The above is re-published to correct some errors overlooked in the first Ed ,. The Emperor of Russia A proposition. WTe find the following in the New York Sun of the. 15th. Of course the proposition cannot be accepted, as it would be a palpable violation of our treaty stipulations: An American gentlemen, who has the entree at the Court of St. Petersburg, writes in these terms to a friend in this city, largely interested in steam machinery: "Do not believe that the Emperor Alexander is of any softer material than his father Nicholas, or that he will let England and France off before he has taken the starch out of them. He either has repeated or very soon will repeat plainly the offer his father made to our Government. He will give the United States the whole of Russian America, (which carries with it immense whale fisheries and the unlimited control of the Pacific coast, ) for the privilege of buying and fitting out steamships and privateers in our ports. As it is now known in Russia that English agents have been permitted to recruit for the Crimean army in New York, the Allies cannot complain if the American Cabinet accepts this fine offer. In case it does, thirty millions of dollars will be spent among our laborers and mechanics by the Russians, and our clipper-built ships will find a prompt market. Alexander speaks English like one born to it, and keeps the run of American papers with surprising accuracy. Soon after his accession he said to a party of Americans who were presented to him. 'Our countries have at heart one interest in common to cure England of her mania for giving the law to other nations." Tjues mjr iin.aamj

ELDER & HARKNESS. Fourth of July in Indianapolis. There never was a pleasanter day to celebrate the Fourth of July, than last Wednesday the storm on Tuesday laid the dust and purified and cooled the air, making it pleasant and agreeable. At an early hour the Sabbath Schools formed in procession, accompanied by two Bands, and marched to . the beautiful grove in the State House Square, where seats were prepared. The exercises were singing,' in English and German; reading the Declaration of Independence, in English and German, and an address, appropriate and well delivered, by J. Tarkington Esq. We never saw the schools look better, or turn out in such large numbers, and it was a very interesting sight that attracted crowds of spectators. . By the time the Sabbath School celebration was through, the celebration of the Fiemen was formed, consisting of the Hope Company No. 4, of Louisville, Ky., accompanied by as good a Band as we have ever heard, (Plato's Band,) the Marion, Invincible, Relief, and Wester Liber ties Fire Companies, who, marched through the principal streets to the Circle, where a short and appropriate address was delivered by Mr. John Coburn. After the address, the Indianapolis Firemen gave three cheers for the Louisville Firemen, which wasresponded to by three cheers for the Indianapolis Firemen, three for the State at large, and three for the Governor and his Kentucky wife. After the address, our boys es corted the Hope Co. to the engine house with their Machines, and then to the Bates House to their dinner. At noon, the streets were filled with strangers, that came to the city by the excursion trains on the different roads. In the afternoon, the different Companies met at the cistern, on the corner of Meridian and Washington streets, to try their engines. A large crowd was collected, and the boys had a great' deal of fun. There was but little difference in the throwing of any of the engines, but we understand the Relief threw a little the farthest, While they were trynig the engines the alarm of fire was raised, and we never saw a crowd so quickly put in motion every fireman was immediately at the ropes, and away they started on a race.,. The alarm was false. In the evening the Hope Company gave a supper at the Bates House, at which a large number firemen were present, which closed the proceedings of the 4th. ; We were glad to see the hospitable spirit evinced by our Fire companies to their Kentucky neighbors the whole arrangements were well made, and properly carried out; and we are also glad that the Hope company have visited our city, with their beautiful Engine and splendid Band. ' , ' . During the day there was no noise or disturbence of any kind, and we did not see a man that was intoxicated it was a quiet, orderly, and sober celebration of the Birthday of Freedom. Fire. On last Saturday afternoon we were near having a fire that might have done us great damage. In fixing the gas pipes in the room below our office, the pipes were left disconnected at the joint at the ceiling, and the gas was not turned off. As the smell of gas was offensive, we suppose some person went into the room and touched a match to the gas, and run, leaving it burning in close contact with the ceiling. When the occupant of the room came in, a few moments after, the whole room was in a blaze. The alarm was immediately given, and as we always have, water in our office, 'we took buckets down and put it out, before it had done much damage. The firemen were on the ground almost immediately, but there was no need of their services. We threw the first water that time. jCSTWe would call the attention of our readers to the Proceedings of the City Council in relation to the Night Watch. The names we publish are all on one petition several .others were out, but came to the Council too late to be presented, about as long as the one we publish. The petition was laid on the table by the majority. Comment from us is unnecessary. itSTThe excursion train on the Peru road brought several thousand to our city, thronging our streets from 12 to 4 o'clock on the fourth.

JCSTWe would ask the particular attention of our School Trustees, of this city, and the parents generally, to the following article on Education and the Laws of Health, from the Philadelphia Ledger and Scientific American, and particularly to that portion in relation to keeping in the schools from 9 o'clock A. M. to 3 o'clock P. M. This plan has recently been adopted by our High School, and we are satisfied it operates to the injury of the health of the children, and retards their improvement. The only advantage gained bv it, it appears to us, is for the convenience of the Teacher, by getting all the leisure hours of the day together, and unless there are other and better reasons that we don't know, this should not be permitted to influence the Trustees. Education and the Laws of Health. The Philadelphia Ledger, in a very excellent article on the above subject, states that the Directors of Herriot's Hospital, in Edinburgh, Scotland, have resolved to impart to all the pupils connected with that institution, a knowledge of the elements of physiology and the laws of health. The Ledger says: "There can be no better proof required of the increasing intelligence of the age than the adoption of this reform in one of the most conservative instituions of one of the most conservative capitals in Europe. On this side of the Atlantic, the study of phisiology has been introduced into numerous schools; but hitherto, in Europe, this important branch of knowledge has been ignored in academies for the young, while Latin, Greek, and Metaphysics have been crammed ad libitum. down the throats of pupils." 1 In connection with this, let us say, that the Directors of the Hospital mentioned, have long followed a practice which all our Academies would do well to copy; that is, giving their pupils manly physical, as well as mental training. Athletic exercises of various kinds, and the army drill by an old soldier, have long been taught in Herriot's Hospital, and we apprehend that these are more necessary for youth than simple mental instruction in the elements of Phyisology. In all our common schools, Physiology is daily taught, while its principles are daily violated by the very rules of these schools. Children of from five to twelve years of age are compelled to attend school from 9 A. M. to 3 P. M., without being allowed to go home for dinner; and we have known some instances of little ones having had their cold lunch stolen, who were actually refused permission to go home, when suffering from hunger, and thus they were compelled to sit and study, without food, for a longer period than it would be prudent for grown-up men and women to fast. The children in all our schools should be allowed one full hour for dinnei every day.

This is as necessary for them as for adults. What is the use of teaching children the laws of health in our schools, and at the same time compel them to violate those laws. ' ' We do not object to Physeology as a school study we approve of it, but we must say that our school teachers and Commissioners of Education are, of all the persons we know, the very ones that most require to be put through the rudiments of the laws'of health, and common sense, respecting both the habits of pupils and the several branches of information which they are taught. The most of the teaching is impracti cal, useless, mindless no better than a parrot's roll-call. Like what was declared by a celebra ted orator respecting the Constitution of England, the system of education pursued in our schools is everything and nothing. An educational reform is certainly demanded, not only for the schools of New York, but those (as we have been informed ) of all our cities together. $3TWe publish a second article this morning in relation to the Governor's salary, and in doing so, we take no part or side in the question. All communications are from the pens of others, and the names of the writers are not published. that the arguments and statements alone can be subjects of criticism or controversy; and when objections are taken to parts, or the whole of a communication, those that differ. or object have an equal right to our columns to state their opinions and objections. .The question of the salaries of public officers, and the disbursement of public monies, is a fair mattes for newspaper criticism and controversy, and one that the people of the State are, and should be interested in, and when both sides of the question in controversy is fully laid before them, they seldom fail to ren der an impartial verdict. j3TThe Liquor law will now be tested. On Monday, a person appointed by the liquor interest was arrested on two indictments, one for selling and the other for manufacturing liquor. He was fined $50 and costs in each case, and com mitted to jail for 30 days. . The day of his com commitment a habeus corpus was issued, and tried the next day, merely to tile the points relied on as a part of the record in a higher court. He is still in jail. Dumont & Gordon are Attorneys for the Prosecution, and Morrison, Coburn & Wallace for the defendant. ' This is a premedi tated case, to try the constitutionality of the law, and the result will show whether it will stand or fall. :. ' i JCarOn Monday the driver of Adams' & Co's Express wagon was seriously hurt by being run over by the wagon. The horses started, and in his attempts to stop them he was thrown under the horses, and wheels. He is seriously hurt, but it is thought he will recover. JS3T A child of Mrs. Margaret Cantwell, about two years old, was drowned by falling into a tub of water. When discovered all efforts- to restore it were unavailing. ' JJSrThe boiler of the steamboat Lexington exploded on Friday night, the 29th inst., in the Ohio river below Louisville. There was between 80 and 90 on board, of which 35 or 40 were killed, and all the men were more or less injured The ladies escaped uninjured. Brass Band. A petition was circulated this week, and met with general favor, to raise mon ey to purchase a set of Brass Instruments, for a Band in this city, to be composed of our citizens, under certain restrictions. We are glad to see this, and from the hands it is in, have no doubt we will soon have,a good Band. the last meeting of the council, new work was authorized to be contracted for, amount ing in the aggregate to $1,700 and the Night Watch was not discontinued. i 1

Proceedings of the City Council. Monday, July 2, 1855. Council met. All the members present. The Treasurer presented his monthly report,

with accompanying vouchers, which was read and referred to the Mayor and Clerk for exam ination. . The Sexton of the Public Grave Yard report ed 32 interments for the month of June, 6 of which were brought from the country. Of these, 10 died of Consumption, 1 of Typhomonia, 2 of Inflamatory Rheumatism, 2 of Croup, 2 of Worms, 1 of Scarlet Fever, 2 of Infiamation of the Brain, and 2 of Summer Complaint. Of the 26 deaths, 10 were children under 6 months of age. The Street Commissioner reported accounts for labor on the streets, and for materials, for the last month, amounting to $488,02, which were allowed. He reported that all the cisterns completed are filled, and in good order. The Civil Engineer reported, That he had let the work of constructing the gutter on the north side of Washington street, between Pennsylvania and Delaware streets, to the lowest bidder. Also, side walk on Michigan street, between Pennsylvania and Delaware streets. He pre sented bids for various works advertised for. The Lafayette railroad track is about one foot high at Ohio street, and the Cincinnati road has not complied with the ordinance, as their gutters and culverts are not properly constructed. The culvert under the Union track, on the east side of Illinois street, was reported too small to carry off the water. On motion, the building of the cistern on the corner of Georgia and Noble street, was awarded to Mr. Obeds. Dr. Ellis, from the Madison & Indianapolis Railroad Company, presented a statement of the condition of the switch on South street, ordered to be taken up by the Council. On motion, the matter was referred to the City Engineer. . Mr. Dunlap, from the Judiciary Committee, reported an ordinance to regulate the sale of fire wood, to appoint wood measurers, and prescribing their duties, and fixing penalties for its violation. This ordinance provides that no wood shall be sold except by the cord, and the same shall be measured, and a certificate given, for which the person selling wood shall pay 5 cents. It pro vides wood stands, to which all wood must be taken, unless bought by private contract. The ordinance was read a second time and laid over until next meeting. Mr. Dunlap, from the same Committee, pre sented the opinion of the City Attorney, in relation to occupying Maryland street by the railroad companies, and laying out a new street south of Maryland street, which is that the Council have not the authority to vacate any street, or to per mit a railroad company to occupy a street so that it cannot be used by the public. The communication was ordered to be placed on record. Mr. Jones, from the Committee on Bridges, reported that the bridge over Pogues run, on Noble street, was being built in a manner that it would be of no use, and moved that the Engin eer be instructed to make a new contract for a bridge that will be permanent. Adopted. Dr.' Dunlap, from a select Committee, reported that they had located the Cistern in the Sixth Ward on the south-west corner of Georgia and Meridian streets. Mr. Delzell, from a select committee, reported that they had located a cistern in the 1st Ward on the corner of New York and Noble streets. Mr. Goode presented the following petition: ' REDUCTION OE THE WATCH.
