lay on the table was withdrawn, to give members a chance to express their opinion. Dr. Dunlap and Mr. Delzell strongly urged the granting of the prayer of the petition, and gave good reasons for it, apart from the request of so large a number of petitioners. Messrs. Boaz, Sulgrove, Graydon and Jones opposed it, because they thought the watch was necessary. The vote was then taken on laying the petition on the table, and resulted as follows: Ayes Messrs. Boaz, Beck, Douglass, Fuqua, Graydon, Jones, Mansur, and Sulgrove 8. Noes Messrs Delzell, Dunlap, Goode, Horn, Keeley and Reid 6. And the petition was laid on the table. A petition was presented from the property holders on Louisiana street, protesting against tlie occupancy of said street by the tracks of the Cincinnati Eailroad Company, in violation of the ordinance. Mr. Jones moved that the Marshal be directed to take up the rails where they are in violation of the ordinance, but at the suggestion of Dr. Dunlap, a committee was appointed to confer with the Company on the subject, and report. Mr. Keeley presented a petition from property holders to have Alabama street opened north of North street. Referred to the Engineer. Mr. Graydon presented a petition for grading and graveling Meridian street, between Ohio and Michigan, which was referred to the Judiciary Committee. A petition from some citizens was presented, requesting the Council to restrain certain evesdropping watchmen from entering private premises to pry into the windows of the petitioners, which was laid on the table. On motion, the days for market in the South street market house was fixed at Tuesdays and Saturdays. The Captain of the Watch reported 35 arrests and violations of the city ordinances within the last month. (Of these but two arrests, as we are informed by the Jailor, was since the 13th of June.) RESOLUTIONS. By Mr. Keeley. , Resolved, That the Marshal notify property holders on Washington street to have their pavements repaired, under direction of the Engineer. By Mr. Mansur. Resolved, That the Marshal notify the owner of the Bates House to remove the well and pumps out of the alley north of said house. Adopted. By Mr. Jones. Resolved, That the Engineer be directed to advertise for bidders to build a cistern in front of the State Bank, on Kentucky Avenue. Adopted. By Mr. Mansur. Resolved, That the Judiciary Committee be directed to draft an ordinance, or amend the old one, so that the number of the watch can be changed. Laid on the table. By Mr. Delzell. Resolved, That the Judiciary Committee bo directed to prepare and report an ordinance reducing the Night Watch to one in each ward, including a Captain for the same. Laid on the table by the following vote: Ayes Messrs. Boaz, Douglass, Fuqua, Graydon, Jones, Mansur, and Sulgrove 7. Noes Messrs. Delzell, Dunlap, Goode, Horn, Keeley and Keid-6. On motion of Dr. Dunlap, the Civil Engineer was directed to survey the Hospital Block, and set the grade stakes for the same. On motion of Mr. Delzell, the Engineer was directed to advertise for bidders to build a cistern on the earner of New York and Noble sts. Referred to the committee on cisterns. On motion the Engineer was directed to make a stone culvert on the west side of Illinois street, and enlarge the present culvert across Washing-

wn ouueif, auu vuvci uie panic vviiu oiuuc On motion, the Market Master was directed to protect the shade trees about the East Market House from injury. Adopted. By Mr. Delzell. Resolved, That the Judiciary Committee be directed to so amend the ordinance on nuisances, and other offences against the city, as to exempt Drug Stores, Bakeries, Barbers, and Livery Stables from trading on the Sabbath. Adopted by the following vote: Ayes Messrs. Delzell, Dunlap, Douglass, Graydon, Goode, Horn, Jones, Keeley, Mansur, Reid and Sulgrove, 11. Noes Messrs. Boaz and Fuqua, 2. On motion of Mr. Sulgrove, the Engineer was directed to examine if the Union Railroad Co. have complied with the ordinance in constructing the culvert across Illinois street, and if not, to notify thetri to fix it. At the suggestion of the Engineer, a committee was appointed to confer with the Union Company in the matter. A committee similar to the above was appointed in relation to the Lafayette Railroad track. On motion, the Council adjourned. 3T" The Fourth was celebrated at Poplar Grove by near 2,000 persons, in fine style. Eleven Sabbath Schools were present three from Johnson county, two from Southport, and the rest from the neighborhood of Poplar Grove, al under the direction of H. P. Todd, Marshal. The Franklin Brass Band furnished (,he music. jC2?It is expected that the cars from this city will run into Cincinnati on and after Monday next, over the Indianapolis and Cincinnati railroad, the third rail will be all laid to day. jfSTWe publish the following card from Mr

Pope, in relation to the charge of selling liquor, for which he was fined. It appears to us we would not have paid that fine, at least until it was decided by our highest courts that it was just. We didnt think selling medicine was prohibited by the liquor law, no matter what use men put it to. If this principle is to prevail, our Drug men must be very careful, as many of the medicines they sell may be used as a leverage, and they fined for selling it. To the Citizens of Indianapolis and the Public: It is due to myself and to you, to state the fact in reference to the article appearing in the columns of the Daily Journal of yesterday, wherein it states that I was arraigned upon affidavit for selling liquor contrary to law. The case was decided. I suffered the penalty and costs. But lest censure should be laid upon me, I wish to furnish to my friends and the public the facts. Upon Tuesday morning, a man came into my store and stated that he had been digging a well, that he was cold and sick, and wanted me to prepare him some medicine. I did so. Gave our usual compound of barks, &c that we have prepared and sold for years: but the man deceived me informed upon me he used the medicine as a beverage.&nd I suffered the penalty. These are the facts. I sold our Ague and Tonic Compound and not liquor. So fc from being opposed to the law, I wish to obser? it, and consider myself one of its staunchest friends. Respectfully, J. P. POPE.

A Pedestrian. We have often amused ourselves in counting how far we walked to and from

our business in the course of a year. If our readers will count it up, especially those living in this city of magnificent distances, they will be surprised at the result. We think we live near the centre of the city within one square of Washington street, and within one square from the market house, and our office is in the centre, on Meridian street opposite the Post-office. From the office to our residence is five and a half squares, which we walk six times a day, and counting our walk for marketing, to church and the Post office, it will average that for 7 days in the week. In our city ten squares make a mile, and our walk is 231 squares a week, or 23 miles, in going to and from our business; or in a month, of 30 days, 99 miles, or in a year of 365 day, 1,196 miles. In 20 years this would make 23,920 miles as far as it is round the world. Of the time consumed in walking as above, allowing to walk at the rate of a mile in 20 minutes; it takes 7 hours a week; 33 hours a month; 399 hours in a year, or 16 days and 14 hours. Reader, estimate how far you walk in a year to and from your business. iP5Tlt is industriously reported that in case the Night Watch were dismissed now, they could and would draw their pay for the whole year, on the ground that they were elected for the year. This rule would apply too officers elected under the charter of the city, but will not apply to watchmen, as they were engaged under a city ordinance, and of course held their office only during the will of the Council, or until the or dinance is repealed. If the Council repeal the ordinance under which they were elected, their term of office expires, and their pay stops. Such is the opinion of one of our ablest jurists. Indiana Female College. Prof. G. W. Hoss, late Principal Teacher in the Literary Department of the Indiana Institute for the Education of the Blind, has been elected President of the Indiana Female College, in place of Dr. Adams, who designs attaching himself to the Indiana Conference. Prof. IIoss has always been popu lar, iid we have no doubt will render the College a popular and profitable Institution with the young Ladies of Indiana that desire a thorough Education. jCJTlf there is anything more pleasant than the sweet sound of music, in the still hours of night, gently stealing over the slumberer until he is awakened to feel conciousness, we dont know what it is. On the night of the 4th, the Lou isville Band seranaded a number of firemen, the Governor, and others, and we got the benefit of, some of it. For the pleasure we derived, (wheth er intended for us or not we canot say,) we ten der our thanks to Plats Louisville Band. Long may they live to discourse sweet sounds, and stir up the besi feelings in the nature of all within their hearing. itST'On Tuesday afternoon five car loads of the children and their friends went to Shelby ville, in Prof. Robins Festival Party, wher thy en joyed a picnic, and gave a Festival in the Court House, returning home by 12 o'clock. iJ37We are under obligations to the Hon.

The exercises consisted of singing, reading the Declaration of Independence, Addresses, by Rev. B. F. Foster, J. W. Gordon Esq., Gen. Hannah, and C. II. Bracken, after which a fine dinner, prepared by the Ladies, was partaken of. Run Awat. Yesterday afternoon about one o'clock, John Grosh, the driver of Adams & Co.'s Express wagon, was run over and severly hurt, on Illinois street, near Buehrig's Hotel. He had been at dinner in the Hotel, leaving his team hitched in the street, and coming out found 'the horses had backed the wagon into the gutter. In trying to get them out, he struck one a severe blow with the whip, which seemed to frighten as they started to run. He snatehed at the reins, but missed, and was thrown violently upon the ground, when the wheels ran over him, inflicting a large and severe wound on the side, and two smrller ones on the back of the head. His shoulder and side also were injured somewhat. He is not thought to be dangerously, though severly hurt. Journal Nutrative Qualities of the Onion. It is worthy of notice as an extensive article of consumption in this country. It is largely cultivated at home, and is imported, to the extent of 700 or 800 tons a year, from Spain and Portugal. But it rises in importance, when we consider that in these latter countries it forms one of the common and universal supports of life. It is interesting, therefore, to know that in addition to the peculiar flavor which first recommends it, the onion is re markably nutritious. According to my analysis, the dried onion root contains from twenty-five to thirty per cent, of gluton. It ranks, in this respect, with the nutritious pea and the gram of the East. It is not merely as a relish, therefore, that wayfaring Spaniard eats his onion with his humble crust of bread, as he sits by the refreshing spring; it is because experience has long proved that, like the cheese of the English laborer, it helps to sustain his strength also, and adds beyond what its bulk would suggest to the amount of nourishment which his simple meal supplies.

The Importance of a Full Complement of Freight Cars and Engines. Many of our new railway enterprises have at their early opening lost largely in receipts and character for business energy, by not having a full supply of freight equipment. Even roads that have had some years of experience to guide

them, have sunered heretofore from this cause, j and we fear that the close of the present year i will find many of our freight railways suffering j from the same cause. The war in Europe has I withdrawn from labor, principally agricultural, some six' or eight hundred thousand able bodied men, and they have become consumers instead ! of producers, and in a great proportion will the ' crops of cereals fall oil there. This falling off i must be supplied from other sources, and we j are justified in the belief that the principal source must be the United States. Our grain exports have been increasing from year to year, until now the export trade has becorao a most important item. In this country we have promise of very large crops, nd as the deficiency in Europe must be supplied, it is a matter of national importance that every facility should be given to bring our overplus to the seaboard, so that it can eo forward without loss of time. In spite of the very large increase of the grain crops this year, we have not much fear that any large amount will be left over unless our Western far mers are unable to find transportation facilities to the seaboard. It is doubtful whether the nresunt war will not last for some years and we can calculate with some degree of certainty that this country will have to supply the European deficiency of grain for the coming two years, and Drobablv for the next five if not ten years. Thpn.fiir. whatever reparation is made for transnortinu- our extra crops of the present season, will not be lost, but on the contrary will be on hand for the regular increased business here' after. The freight business of all roads connect ing with the West, cannot but be greatly in creased during the coming six months, and it will be well for the managers to be prepared for it, In addition to what we may expect to gain from the increased shipments of grain, some attention may well be given to the naturally increasing business of the country. , The dullness which has been the rule all over the country for the past year is nothing but a resting spell, and when general business resumes its activity, it will be quite likely to show an increase of a very decided character. Capital is easy and cheap, and nothing is wanted to lead its holders to spread it out in fruitful and valuable enterprises, but a little more confidence in the stability of the country to bear its great pecuniary burdens. That has been fully proved for the past six months, and the future cannot but be looked upon with hope and faith. The general resumption of business in all its principal departments, and the activity now being shown in railway movement will tend to increase the business of our railways very largely, and it will be well for our managers to have the available means to take care of it. As a rule all our roads have been deficient in freight equipment, thereby losing a very large amount in earnings every year. Thousands and thousands of barrels and bushels of grain have each year been lost for want otthe proper force to carry the freight forward, and it is about time that some wisdom should be gathered by this kind of experience. Let, then, the managers of our freight roads have a full and substantial equipment to meet the greatly increased coming business. American Railway Times. Visionary Pursuits. We are too apt to overlook the present with all the advantages and opportunities it may posse?. for some far off object some visionary good or ideal scheme. We are not satisfied with the things that lie near and around us. Those things with which we are familiar, appear of little consequence, but those beyond our grasp seem to possess more desirable qualities. Thus it is, that we often' lose a present good for some real or fancied object at a distance. We go in pursuit of it, but it retreats like the rainbow, or the mirage, as we advance Our youthful minds are elated with hopes of obtaining honor, or wealth, or fame. Our manhood is spent in pursuing one or the other of these, and but too frequently, our old age sinks down overloaded with sorrow, disappointment and regret. In the struggle for distinction, in the race of life but few can win the coveted prize. Even when it is obtained, the possessor is generally more unhappy than when he crowded forward in the eager throng towards the tempting object of his ambition. This restless spirit, this ever seeking after something which we have not, is confessedly the source of much that has tended to elevate and improve humam society. To it are owing many of the improvements in art, many of the discover ies in science, and many of the conveniences of lite; but when improperly directed, it is a spirit that brings only disappointment and regret to its possessor. In the common affairs of men, and in their every-day-life, it were well with them if they improved the present moment, and would take advantage of the opportunities that may be presented day by day. He who is ever shifting his abode seldom acquires a good home at last; and he who is con tinually changing his trade or occupation, rarely excels in any. "Unstable as water," the man of many notions hardly ever attains to eminence in any pursuit. The man who acts in the present, who cheer fully takes the occurrences of todav as thev come, and make the best he can of them, who looks not to treasures in the distance, but carefully improves those within his reach, is by far the wisest man. express at Herald.

The mouth of the can i , constructed with a metalic valve composed of white metal that r will not corrode; the valve seat Is attached to the can by soldering them on the inside of the top, thereby throwing the cut edge of the tin on the outside, so there will be no metal exposed to the action of the acid in the fruit that can oxydize or corroue. ine process 01 seating is so simple ana peneci mat a child ten years of age, after witnessing the operation once, can fullillit.

A great deal of mystery has been made of this simple matter, and it is generally supposed that the preservation of fruits and vecetablest in a fresh state, depends upon some process known oely to the initiated, The simple agent in the work of preservation is heat, if after the application of heat for a certain time, the article be sealed up hermetically, It will remain unchanged for an almost indefinite period.

Directions for Preparing and Putting up Different Kinds of Fruit. Forall ripe fruits, such as Peaches, Strawberries, Raspberries, Grapes, Cherries, Plumbs, &c, it is only necessary to (111 a common steamer with either of the above fruits, and set it over a pot of boiling water, place the lid on the steamer, let it remain until the whole mass becomes saturated with heat, up to a boiling point that can be easily ascertained; for the steam after passing through the fruit, would be too hot for the naked hand. Any of the above fruits healed to that temperature, , loses none of its original sweetness or flavor, when the above arrangements are fulfilled. Fill your cans one at a time, place in the valve or mouth fiiece, take a stick of common bottle sealing wax, melt it in a ndle, or hold it in contact with a piece of hot Iron, fill the groove or channel of the valve with the melted wax. when the groove is thoroughly filled, pour a cup of cold water on the top of the can, that condenses the steam that generates from the heated matter in the can, and therefore a vacuum is produced. Every can can be thoroughly tested after sealing, by plunging It Into cold water until it becomes cool; if there be any imperfections in the can, hold it to the ear, and you can hear the air forcing itself in.
