A DREAM. BY THB BK8TLE88 PRINTBR. The taper burned dim on the white covered stand That tood an one side of the room where I lay; My burning cheek oft by sweet breeies was fanned, That still would around me quite merrily play. A fever burned high on my pale and thin cheek, For sickness had called me from labor away My frame was then tremulous, weary and weak, And slowly and sadly would pass by each day. One night as I lay, half awake, half asleep, 1 dreamed of the loved and the lost thut are gone, The thoughts of whom yet 1 still sacredly keep, And treasure as through life my way I press on. ' 1 thought that they stood on a far distant shore. And had hade me return to the land whore they dwell, And with them partake of kind Heaven's rich store, Where mortals all gloom from their hearts may dispel. - ' The vision then changed, and my health was restored; Again I pressed onward In life's busy chase ,' I dreamed I was there, and, as often before, -My labor pursued, as 1 stood at tho case. And then I was carried to lands far away, Where 1 met but the glances or strangers so cold; But I hastened return, without longer delay, And the story of roving to me was soon told. 1 then dreamed of the maiden I still love so well Ah, Would that that dream had but lasted forever; Yes, would it had lasted, and bound by the spell, Our hearts with a tic that no care could well sever. But alas, that fond dream was loo soon to be broken, For the room was then entered by some anxious friend; 1 1 was startled at words by her too loudly Bpoken, , And the dream that 1 loved so was then at an end. Indianapolis, September, 1H55. MEN OF ThFpKESsT . BV TRELLIS TKAVBRTON. " I'm of the press I I'm of the pres! My throne a simple chair; I ask no other majesty. Than strikes the gazer there, The horse of fire obeys my nod, My courtiers walk the sffa. The lightnings lift their flaming manes. At arts command for me." As : time rolls on, customs change. "Old things are passed away, behold all things become new !" Such has been (he case in the great school of the people. Once the pulpit was the throne from which they received ex cathedra, their doctrines and dulies. Now the press has become the school and the editor the schoolmaster. Thousands who never hear the minister, " take the papers." The orator may move the multitude with "thoughts that breathe and words that burn," yet without the aid of the press to preserve, they will ring but for an hour in the ears of a few. The leading men of England, France and Germany, are in the habit of addressing the people through the Newspapers and Reviews. The most able men of our own country, speak to their fellow citizens through the same medium, and many who have become eminent in State affairs, or in literature, owe their first steps to their connection with the press ' as ; editor or printer. ' ""' ' ' f ; ' Dr. Franklin, as every school boy knows, wa3 a printer. The principal editor of the New York Times, was once speaker of the New York House of Representatives, and is now Lieut. Governor of the same State. The editors-in-chief of the New, York Tribune and the New York Express, are practical printers, and have both been in Congress. S. Cammeron, long a United States Senator from Pennsylvania, Governor Bigler of the same State, and his brother, Governor of California, were once printer boys, as well as Hon. L. D. Campbell of Ohio, James Buchanan, Minister to the Court of St. James, and Scuyler Colfax, member of Congress elect from Indiana. Our gifted countrymen, Willis Gaylord Clarke, William Ltgget, and , the author of the "Old Oaken Bucket," N. P. Willis, and Gen. Geo. P. Morris, the editor of the " Home Journal," as well as the great American Traveler, Bayard Taylor, caught, the "spirit of song," while at the printer's case. Our men of the press ought to feel proud, that such men as Henry When ton, author of " Elements of International Law," and other works Edward Everett, the great Rhetorician,: Scholar and Statesman Judge McLean, of U. S.' Supreme Court Richard A. Dana and Charles Fenno Hoffman, poets and novelists Prof. Jared Sparks, the American Historian Bronson, the transcendalist Tay, the novelist, and William Cullen Bryant, John Neal, William Gillmore Simms, James Russel Lowel, Albert Pike,' and O. G. Eastman, poets, ' were once editors of Newspapers or Magazines. For a vigorous, healthy, western literature, as independent of the eastern as the eastern is of the old world, we are greatly indebted to our western men of the press. The celebrated de-' scriptive writer, Timothy Flint, and the truthful and graphic frontier author, James Hall, were both editors. The late Otway Curry, of Ohio, was a poet of no mean pretensions and a popular editor. W. D. Gallagher of Kentucky, and Sidney Dyer, the western song writer, have been connected with the press. Coates Kinney, in addition to being a practical printer and the author of a book of sweet poems, is the confederate of W. T. Cogshall, the author of a very popular collection of stories in the publication of the " Genius of the West." The celebrated Dr. Rice, of St. Louis, Missouri, . the late Dr. Simpson, and Alexander Campbell, of Bethany, Va., have all been editors. Our printers and editors, may well be proud of their calling. They are the great instructors and leaders in society. In the great catalogue of names of those who have been skillful in the use of the "stick," or answered to the call of "copy," may be found those who have journeyed" in the highest walks of literature, art and science. They may well sing with Wallace . " I'm of the press ! I'm of the press ! Do monarchs wear the crown ?

I waft my pen across my page And crowns have tumbled down J The clouds float on, the nations strive, . Without the thunder rolls ; Within, I brood the quiet thought That changes nil the souls." Indiana University-, Sept. 1855. Messrs. Editors : I think it is Byron who says "'Tis a pleasant thing to see one's name In print; A book's a book, although there's nothing in t. This sentence, especially that of the last line, seems to be fully adopted by your correspondent "Prank Freeheart," in reference to newspaper contributions. I have been a constant reader of your paper for something over two years, during the latter and perhaps larger portion of which time, your columns have borne witness to your willingness to draw out whatever there is in the mind of that writer. It is unquestionably a powerful stimulus to young writers to allow them to see their best and most careful productions in print, and the effect on such writers is generally good. But for one, in view of your generous allowance of space to "Frank Freeheart" hitherto.

I feel like reminding you of the proverb, "there's reason in all things." The experiment of im provement, I submit, has in his case proved a failure, and it he is possessed of that modesty that ought to characterize a gentleman, he will doubtless spare both you and your readers, for the tuture, the perusal ot his productions. . : A. B. C. Fourth Ward. The fall season has come and we begin to look about and see what has been our summer's work, in. the way of improving our city. In this part of the fourth ward, lying west of the canal, twenty-five dwellings have been com menccd this season, most of which are completed, and all, as far as completed occupied. , In addition to these, one large cooper-shop, has been erected, a large flouring and saw-mill finished, the halls upon the fair grounds built, the city hospital put under contract, and," what is a slill more valuable improvement, the plank road towards Crawfordsville brought nearly to the city, with a fine bridge (stone piers and abutments) over White river, and a new bridge over Fall creek all which will occasion a heavy cunentof travel from the north-west through this part of the city. New York street is also being graded and graveled. This portion of the city lies high ; is dry, clean and healthy. Scarcely a serious case of sickness, as far as I have heard, has occurred this year, and no death. f. The following letter from R. R. Underbill, of this city, in relation to filling up the canal, will be interesting to some of our readers. N. York, 9th month, 13, 1855. Editors of the Journal: ,.- j , I noticed in your paper of the 7th inst. the proceedings of a meeting of the citizens of Indianapolis on the subject of filling up the Central Canal, it being declared a nuisance by the meeting, upon the opinion of the Medical Department of this city. With all deference 16 the gentlemen, whom I esteem 'I annrove in most matters but the one under consideration, I must differ from them. I have the experience of twenty years in Indianapolis, and have been a close observer of the causes of disease, and I am fully convinced the canal is harmless, as regards sickness, when full of running water. Fill the canal up, and there will be no abatement of sickness until you fill all the bayous at West's mill, and up and down White River, where the cause originates. . - ., Talk about the canal injuring the prosperity of our city! ; Fill it up, and before three years you would vote to have in dug out, as certain ruin, in a measure, will follow that course. I have no interest whatever in the canal or water power, except as to the prosperity of Indianapolis, which is perhaps as dear to me as to any of the members of that meeting. My friend James Blake spoke my mind on the subject before that meeting. , A few words more. Where is Lafayette, Logansport, Fort Wayne, Terre Haute, and many large towns in New York State, who glory in the Clinton Ditch running through them? Did you ever hear of their trying to fill them up filled with the same kind of water, and not a whit the purer. It is one of the main arteries of the city of Indianapolis, and I hope the sober second thought of its citizens will scatter to oblivion all such doctrins as upheld by said meeting- .. . R. R. U.

We understand that a man named Stephen Cantwell, or Cantworlh, was discovered on Saturday niirht about eleven j o'clock, lying in a fit, on the embankment of the Union track where Morris s mill used to stand. His groans attracted the attention of John Brough, Esq., who, with officer McLean, took him into the Union Depot, where he died in a few minutes. Esqr. Sullivan held an inquest on the body yesterday. A brother of deceased testified that Stephen was at home during the day waiting on the sick, that he was unhealthy and subject to fits.. Mashean was with deceased during the evening from 7 till 10 o'clock, deceased then was perfectly rational, and did not drink anything while with him, parted from him below the bridge by the Washington foundry. The Jury found a verdict that "deceased came to his death by reason of fits or convulsions. Autumn. The following beautiful passage is from the pen of Walter Savage Landor: "The damps of autumn sink into the leaves and pre pare mem tor the necessity ot the tall; and thus insensibly are we, 89 years close around us, detached from our tenacity to life by the gentle pressure of recorded sorrows.-"

Mr. Poor, the editor of the American Railroad Journal, has come out in his last number, in one of his characteristic articis, entirely destitute of truth, against the editors of this paper. The time was when such articles, from that once re spectable,' but now fallei, Journal, would have much surprised us ; but since the editor has be come the mere mercenary tool of those who will pay for his libells, nothing from that source can give us a moments feeling or concern. In speak ing of the effect produced upon the subscriptions of the Railroad Journal, by the false and mali cious attacks of the editor on the railroads of Indiana, and especially upon the .Evansville, Indianapolis and Cleveland Straight Line, in a former number we stated that we had enquired at the Post Office here, and learned that the subscriptions to that Journar were once . larger, but that there were but six or eight copies now taken, and some of these have been ordered to be discontinued. Mr. Poor takes" this information in high dudgeon, writes to Judge Wick, our postmaster, getsthis letter, but does he publish it? He dare not publish it, he gives the following garbled extract only "He, the Judge, never communicated any such -statement as the Loco-' motive contains, and thatpone of the clerks have any recollection of doing so." How does this contradict our statement, that the subscriptions of the Railroad Journal have fallen off at this office to six or eight ? Why don't Mr. Poor' deny the truth of this statement? He has the list of his subscribers here, why don't he publish it? Why don't he ask Judge Wick how many papers arrive at this office? He dare not do it. He can't show as many subscribers as we gave him, and he knows it, and we now tell him, that he will lose the few he has, unless he ceases his libells against our public improvements, and the men who are engaged in building them. The question as to who gave us the information at the post office is totally immaterial, we got it there, what we said was true, and Mr. Poor knows it, and Judge Wick does not and cannot contradict it. Until he answers some of the damning statements of the editor of the Railroad Advocate against him, he must not look for any further notice from U3. An irresponsible libeller is unworthy the notariety we have already given him-, by noticing him and his Journal. S3F At the last meeting of the Council, the Fire Association petitioned for an increase of the annual amount of current expenses, " on account of the discount to which city orders are subjected." City orders are not worth as much now by at least one-fifth as they were last winter, and they are worth more now than they will be next spring. . This is what we predicted, and what we were satisfied would be the result, when we recommended the reduction of the watch during the months of June and July, when our city was so quiet and orderly; and for which our motives were impugned. It is only just that the allowance to the fire companies should be increased it was based on the orders being par, and as far as they go below par, the amount should be increased the companies ahould not be the sufferers for the indebtedness of the city. In every instance the city will suffer from the discount of her orders all contracts for improvements, and ' every laborer, or person that does work for the city, will be regulated in their bids and price by the cash valve of city orders what they can get for them, and not what they call for ; and this will increase the city debt in a compound ratio. We shall be much mistaken if the statement we presented in June last, of the indebtedness of the city next spring, is not an under estimate. We shall see. Next Monday week our County Fair commmenccs entries must be made by Tuesday. There is no doubt but the grounds will be fully ready, as some thirty or forty men have been at work for weeks, preparing the grounds and buildings, which are arranged in handsome style. Dou't forget the County Fair, as there is a large number of premiums to be distributed. 3T Mr. H. B. Fatout has left us a specimen of a sweet potatoe, that is as large as large well, large enough to make a full mess for a medium sized family. Who can send one larger ?

Marion County Fair. Our Farmers and

Mechanics must not forget our Marion County Agricultural Fair. It will be held in the ground fitted up for the State Fair, on the 3d, 4th, and 5th days of October, and the premiums awarded amount to about SI, 400, in gold, silver, and silver-ware. Remember, that entries must be made on Monday and Tuesday, October 1st and 2d. Dr. A. C. Stevenson will deliver the annual address on Friday, at 1 o'clock P. M., and immediately after the address, the premiums will be awarded. It is anticipated that there will be a great deal of laudable competition for the premiums, in every department, as we hear from different parts of the county of preparations to attend the Fair. The County Fair belongs to the people of the county directly they should take more pride in attending it than the Slate Fair, as the premiums received at it are testimonials of superiority of animals or articles over our immediate neighbors, and should therefore be prized higher. Next Monday a week is the day for making entries, and as , this is the last paper some of our readers will see before that time, we republish the following regulations, and special premiums. . , ' . 1st. That it is by far the best plan for heads of families to become members of the society by purchasing a member's badge, costing one do!- j lar, and entitling the possessor to admission during the Fair, together with his family, (males under age.) and also the privilege of exhibiting for competition any article or animal belonging to himself or family. . 2d. That persons exhibiting stock are expected to furnish their own forage. 3d. That members' badges are not transferable and a violation of this rule will be punished to the extent of the law. 4th. That articles and animals not enumerated in the premium list will receive the attention of the committee to which they would naturally be referred, and, if of superior quality, will be entitled to a discretionary premium. 6th. That the premiums not called for at the Fair will be delivered at a public meeting of the society, at the State House, on the last Saturday of November next. 6th. That the society this year offers a most liberal premium list to those skilled in horsemauship, viz: . , ., . ,.; CLASS T. NO, 1. OPEN TO ALL. To the lady over 16 years of age who manages a horse best, and rides most gracefully and lady-like, a silver pitcher 25.00 To the lady who rides second best, silver cup 15.00 To the young miss of sixteen years and under, who rides best, side saddle. ; . . . ..20.00 To the miss who rides second best, side . saddle 15.00 CLASS T NO. 2. OPEN TO ALL. To the young gentleman over sixteen years ' of age, who manages and rides his horse best, a silver hunting watch .......... 25.00 To the young gentleman managing and riding his horse second best, a silver watch. 15.00 To the boy sixteen years of age and under, who manages and rides his horse best, a silver watch 5.00 To the boy who rides and manages his horse second best, a saddle. 10.00 The competition for which will take place between those undrr 16 years on Thursday. th 5th, at 2 o'clock P. M., and on Friday, the 5ih, at 9 o'clock A. M., those over 16 years of age. Any persou in the State by becoming a member can compete. ' ' -' ' 1 Wagon-Tracks. Within the past year, since the ordinance requiring property holders to improve the streets in front of their property has been in force, orders have frequently passed the Council to make "wagon-tracks", through mudholes in various parts of the city. ' This was done in South street, where several hundred dollars were expended; in Alabama strtet, in Ver mont street, and several other streets, at the expense of the whole city it is virtually and in fact improving the property of some ; persons. who buy low lots at cheap rates, while others have to improve their own. every case where this has provtment has been much Is this right ? In been done, the imneeded, but all improvements are needed, and when the system adopted is to make the owners improve the streets in front of their property, it should work even all round. We merely wish to bring this to the attention of the Council, and citizens, for their consideration. : If they think it right, and are willing to continue this system of improving the worst streets of the city at the expense of nil, we shall say nothing but we don't think it right. Evansville, Indianapolis & Cleveland Railroad. The President of this Company, in a cir cular issued on the 15th inst. to the citizens of the White River Valley, says: "I have just returned from the southern part ot the line. I find the contractors progressing well with a full force on the first division, the graduation of which is about three-fourths done, equal to about forty miles of finished grade the Company having assurances that the necessary stock will be immediately closed on the lower part of the second general division. ; The con tractors expect to commence the work north of the crossing of the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad this fall. The wheat crop of the counties through which the road runs, and the adjoining counties, cannot fall short of 2,000,000 bushels this year; and the corn crop must exceed 20,000,000 bushels. Having recently returned from tho East, and not having the time to see or correspond with many of you, I avail myself of this method of informing you that we found our prospects East quite as cheering as we had anticipated so much so, as to warrant us in repeating, that if we all do our duty at home, we cannot fail of complete success." This is very encouraging to the friends of that great enterprise, so important to the cities of Evansville and Indianapolis, as well as to the whole of the White River Valley. j3TMr. David Burnett, from Wayne Township, has left two specimens of Cucumbers. One is the white variety, measuring 16 inches long, 14 inches in circumference, and weighing 4 lbs. 0 ounces. The other is the long green 1 8 inches long, 12 inches in circumference, and weighs 4 lbs. Who can beat them ? Turn 'em Out. The Hog Law-is suspended until the 1st of November next. Turn out the swine.

Case of Maria Leatherman. Decision of Jus-' tice Todd. Marion Countt, Indiana.

Maria Leatherman, (A Female,) vs. Jno. E. Foudaay, Sheriff of M. 0.1 Proceedings on writ ot Habeas Corpus, September 18, 1855. Maria Leatherman, (a female,) the applicant, was this day brought before me on a writ of Habeas . Corpus, alleging that she was illegally imprisoned in the jail of Marion county, Indiana. The sheriff's return to the writ shows that she was in his custody, by virtue of five warrants of commitment, issued by James McCready, Mayor of the City of Indianapolis, for the violation of the act of the 16th February, 1855, entitled. "An act to prohibit the manufacture and sale of spirituous and intoxicating liquors." The provision of the Revised Code of 1852, Vol. 2, page 600, chap. 6, sec. 19, prohibits the imprisonment of females. This provision is a general one applicable to all cases of misdemeanors tried before justices of the peace, or those having like authority. I am not aware of any act repealing it. There is no provision in the act of j February 16, ' 1855, expressing or authorizing ! such imprisnoment; and it is in virtue of the I provision of this act, that this imprisonment is i attempted to be justified. To authorize it, re sort is had to interpretation and construction. This interpretation, or construction cannot be sustained, for several reasons, that are manifest. The first presented is, that such construction is in rftrect' violation of the express provision ot the act of 1852. - The second is, that such interpretation is contrary to the settled doctrine of construing penal statutes, strictly. And thirdly, that while the provision of the act of 1852 is in force, such interpretation would give the provision of the act of 1855, the effect of a special statutory enactment. The legislature has not the power, thus to legislate specially, even in express terms, much less, can that body give to a Court the authority to exercise, by judicial interpretation, a power which cannot be exercised, through such power was sought to be given in express terms. It is at least doubtful whether the legislature ever intended that this act of 1855, should be thus interpreted. If the legislature had such intention it is not made manifest. The act of 1852 exempts all females from imprisonment in cases of misdemeanors, ar.d this act is in full force. The act of 1855 has no provision, repealing this exemption. The act of 1852 contains the general law on this subject.. The act of 1855, if it contained a special provision for the imprisonment of females, such provision would be unconstitutional but if it contains no special provision, how can a Justice of the Peace, or any other officer with concurrent jurisdiction, or any Court, so construe its provisions, by interpretation, as to make it a special law for the imprisonment of females, in a certain class of cases of misdemeanor when the general law exempts all without exception? If the Legislatare is prohibited from exercising such power, on what authority can one, having only the power of a Justice of the Peace, rest, when attempting to enforce such power by the mere process of Judicial Intepretation? It is very clear that when there is a general provision by Statute, such as that contained in the act of 1 852, exempting females, in all cases of misdemeanors, from imprisonment, that the Legislature has no power to authorize punishment by imprisonment, in such cases, by special enactment, much less has the Justice of the Peace, or one of equal jurisdiction, the power to nntliorizo such imprisonment by Judicial Interpretation, and when the effect of that interpretation is (partially at least) to nullify the provisions of a general statute, by giving force and validity to the provisions of the subsequent act, that must operate as a special enactment, or not operate at all. , The general law is in full force it is neither revised, amended, or repealed. The general law and the special provision cannot both operate at the same time. The one or the other must be the rule of action. The constitutionality and validity of the act of '52 has not been questioned,, and its provisions must govern this case, as it has not been amended or repealed. The prisoner is discharged. Levi L. Todd, Justice. ' jtiT We clip the following from the money article of the American Railway Times, of Boston : The most notable features of the Money market are, a good supply of capital and very little paper offering on the streets, while the Share market has advanced somewhat. There is a decidedly better feeling with regard to railway securities, both in bonds and shares and though there is no great increase in prices, the parties who are investing at the present low prices are quite numerous. If the strong conservative feeling now manifested in the management of the different enterprises is continued, the present tariffs insisted upon, and reckless competition given up, we may reasonably expect that a great majority of our roads will prove remunerative property for all coming time. The Banking movements and trade reports are on the whole favorable. The fall business has opened with great promise. Our immense crops of breadstuffs form a basis of substantial value, which will give great strength to our credit abroad. The exports of corn, wheat, and the other cereals to supply the demand caused by the employment of some million of men in the European war, will have a beneficial effect, not only to producers in this country, but to every active business interest here. jt3""An intelligent Farmer, who spent three days, at the Wayne County Fair last week, in-' forms us that during that time he did not see a ' man in liquor, a drop of liquor, or any indica-. tions that there was a drop of any kind in the County. Can the same be said of our County at the Fair ? S3T A shop is advertised to rent in this pnper. It is near the centre of the city, and suitable for a great many mechanical businesses. -The length. days and nights are now of equal The Village Idler. Everybody knows him. He is an easy, harmless, lounging, good-natured, good for nothing creature! He has time, but it is wasted; talents, but they are utterly uncultivated; opportunity, but it is never improved; but he spends it without object, or use, or aim, or end. In youth he neglecied school, disobeyed his parents, was a stranger to the house of God, made no effort to prepare for the future, and now without character, respectability, employment, or a home, he wanders about from the bar room to the street, ar.d back again to the bar room a burden to himself, a disgrace to his relations and to all a warning, that a mis-spent youth brings after it a useless manhood and miserable old
