Hailroad Matters.

learn thai subscriptions to a considerable amount ate still wanting to insure the commencement of the Kvansville *nd Crawfordsville Railroad and that owing to thi* faot the letting of contracts heretofore advertised has been postponed. Those interested in the prorperiiy of our city and eoutuy should not let this enterprise fail for want of •'material aid." In connection with this subject we copy from the Fort Wayne Sentinel the brief article below, which shows that it we prosecute the Evarisville and Crawfordsville road we have a chance of securing a direct communication with the Lakes, Of how much importance Hi at would be oar boxines* tnen should be able (o judge. It pcesems at any rate a consideration which should not be entirely overlooked, in determining what we shall do to encouragc Hie building of the Evansville nuil Crawfordsville Railroad, and especially when there are roads in contemplation north «f us, intended to divert travel tirorri pa«*ing through thin placc.

Iinportnnt R.iltrond Connection, ••The President of the Kvutisvillc Terre Haute, Crawfordsville, & Fort Wayne Railroad, has, we understand, made an arttinge'URht with the Sandusky city, Freemo tit uml IndUus Hailroad, to connect the two roads at Fort Wajne. This we look upon us nii important an far as we are coneu.ued, as it securcs our cities another direct ooimnutiieation with Lake Brie and it must prove advantageous to both the perut* more immediately concerned. It gives t« the Kvansvillu road a good eastern outlet with the advantage of connecting at Fort

Wayne with the numerous other railroads neutering herefrom every direction, and forms one of the best and most direct lines from the lower Ohio, and to the southwest lo Lake Krie that can bo found. To the Sandusky Company it gives a connection at this place with the Fort Wa\ne and Chicago and the Fort Wayne and Mississippi Roads, and nt Terre Haute it will form a connection with the St. Louis Road, making the best and nearest route

from

that city to

Krie and the Hast now in contempation.— It will prove rather a formidable rival to the Wabash Valley and St. Louis Railroad as it is far more direct, runs on better ground, will have lighter grades, and be oheuper to iron struct.

We look upon the line formed by the connection of theso two roada as fully equal to any other, likely to prove advantageous to the country and ccrtain to be a piofitable circulation to to tho*# «ho en.bark in it."

Disgraceful Scene.

Tiio most disgraceful scene occurred on our streets on Monday night, after the pfrfonnances at the Circus had concluded, which has over occurred in our town. A large number of brutes, in the shape of men, chafed a poor abandoned female from the Circus ground to one of the corner* of the public square, and there, actuated by such feelings, as one could hardly imagine had existence itt the human breast, proceeded! notwithstanding her cries and en* treaties to divest her of part of her clothing nud to torture her person by the most flagrant and disgusting outrages of wfiioh they were capable. After she was resoued from her persecutors by some persons who had compassion for distress even in such an object, light or two concluded the whole matter. During all the while that these disreputable occurrences were transpiring not an officer was present, or to be found to attempt to disperse the crowd or put an end to them excepting a constable, who, we ate told, assisted in getting the woman away. We regret to record such thing* as occurring in Terre Haute. We are fast becoming a ettj! Is ft not time that we should have some fllcient police arrangement, by whioh such rows may be prevented, or are we to have the mc {Tensive scene* occurring on our streets without any interpoekioo of tue lawt

Hailroad Letting.

During the pact week oar city was filled to overflowing-with'peraoos attending the letting- that vas to have come off, fop the Bvansvitte and1Crawfordsvilla Railroad'.— Owingto the failure to raise the requisite amount of stock, bids-were si uply received but no awards were made. The awards are to await the issue of the efforts now being made by our citizens to realize the amount necessary to put the whole road from Yincenes to Terre-Haute under contract.— Should they fail to raise the sum of 940,000, which we learn is the amount required within thirty days, we understand that Judge Hall, the President of the Road, haa made known his determination to have the road put under contract to the town of Sulivan, and completed speedily to that place. We apprehend thai our citizens rather than have this road terminate perhaps for years at Sul ivan, will within the required time, without fail, make up the amount requisite to complete the the road to Terre-Haute. If our citizens look to their own interests—to the continued prosperity of our city, they will not fail to do so. There are none of the surrounding counties that has contributed so much, by her trade, to the growth and prosperity of our city as the county of Sulivan. Sulivan is a large county, and has a body of rich and productive land, that will compare favorably with the richest portions of our State. We doubt whethes portions of thw county can be excelled any where in our state for agricultural purpose*. A great portion of her lands are highly cultivated.— In proportion to her population and the number of acres of land under cultivation, the county o( Sulivan produces equal to any county in our State. Terre-Haute hereto* fore and now is the market for the greater part of her surplus products. To this point the principal part of her grain, cattle, hogs, Ate. for years have been brought for sale.— Shall we keep this important trade, or shall we by our own negligence let this trade seek a Southern market—be transported from necessity from our very doors, to tho young and rapidly growing city of Evansville, to fill her coffers—to add to her growth and prosperity. These are questions, that must come home to the business men of our city. They must plainly see that, unless they contribute of their abundant means, to aid in the construction of this road to this place, that they must inevitably loose a very important portion of their trade. Should this road be built to the town of Sullivan, and thereto terminate for a period of twelve months, itseffeots would be felt by our business men. They would then have a reali. zing sense of the importance and necessity of having this road constructed. But the completion of this Roed, to our city secures to us, not only the trade of other counties but it connects us with the Ohio River at all seasons of the year, wnich above all other considerations add to the importance ol this road, so far as our interests are concerned. Terre-llaute furnishes with groceries —the products of tho South—a vast extent of country, llor position in the great valley of the Wabash makes her the depot, to which a vart section of country must naturaly look for their supplies in the groceryline. Terre-Haute is the greatest slaughtering city in the State. All that she lacks of being the Cincinnati of her state in point of pork packing is a rail road connection with the Ohio River at Evansville, which would' enable her packers at all seasons of the year to send their pork to the South.—

It oftentimes happens that the pork market is the highest at seasons of the year when the paokers at this place and those higher up on the Wabash are unable to get their pork to market. It also oftentimes is the case that Groceries can be purchased at more advantageous termi at iimea when our merchants cannot have them shipped to this point. These important branches of trade which give life and health to our city, aa well aa other prominent interests demand that we should hare a railroad connection with the Ohio River, instead of depending solely on the uncertainty of River navigation. But we are extending this article beyond the space allotted to us in this weeks paper. We trust our oitisena will be up and doing and immediately take the amount of Stock requisite to construct the road to this point. One Railroad has done much for Terre Haute. But one railroad will never make her a great and prosperous city. Ponder on this idea citiscna of Terre Haute, you who are men of wealth who have means wherewith to build railroads and make us a great city—tike city of the Wabash Valley.

P. 3. Sloe* writing the above we learn that our oitisena are awakening to a sense of their interests. On yesterday upwards of one hundred share* of stock were subscribed. We learn that among those who took thi* amount of stock were Col. R. W. Thompson and Wm. D. Gmwold, Esq., who each took ten shares. The amount taken by Mr. G. yesterday, we understand, was an addition to the stock he had previously taken. We trust we shall ho able next week to announce the faot, that our citis«ns have made up the amount required of them, the construction of a road which to our judgement if not the most important, is certainly among the taost important, connected with the interests of our city.

Diplomatic Liveries ssi Servilttes. A late number of tho New York Tribune has-an article upon this subject which eon" tains as much correct sentiment and just, reflection as any newspaper article which has metocr eye lately, and we are sorry that its length prevents oar copying it. It condemns as not republican, anti-democrat-ic, useless, ridiculous, and absurd the practice among our officiate abroad ot dressing op in a peculiar costume and aping the styles and manners of a Foreign Court— There is no reason why our representatives to Foreign Courts should not represent us in dress, in manner, and in style of living, as well as in political ideas, and why those representing the majesty of our Government abroad should not appear in the same simple attire as those representing it at home. Of our Foreign Ministers it is not *oo mucn say of them, in the language of the Tribune, that "in their personnel they are simply flunkeya." "What a poor set of diluted spirits without, originality, genius or pluck, we hsve slmost constantly abroad, who submit themselves to be stuck body and soul into the coats and breeches, ceremonies and bedevtlments, of courts whose style is only a refined barbaric grandeur, and whose vitality is derived from popular ignorance and servility."

In this matter as in all others a Ceding the character and interest of our Government it is proper that the sentiments of the people should be expressed, and when expressed, regarded at Washington city.— The style which our ministers try to keep up makes living expensive for them. Expensive living demands aa increaie of salaries as we have lately seen, and increase of salaries a more expensive Government.

When thus reduced lo a matter of dollars and cents it is easy to see what interest we have in it, even out here in the West where we seldom or never see alive Minister, and where gold lace and gilt buttons are unknown pxcept when seen on Militia Officers!

We speak from a personal knowledge when we say that this establishment is most delightfully situated. The country round is beautiful and romantic, and the place is easy of access. See advertisement.

Great excitement exists in Chicago in relation to the alleged presence of mad dogs in the city. Petitions are in circulation praying the Council to out-law all dogs running in the streets, and pay a bounty of fifty cents on each dog killed. If a reputation of madmtss could be given to some dogs owned on Washington street, we have no doubt benefit would result to the public.—State Sent.

The same here. Our streets are infested with a most villainous set of curs, a riddance of which would be a public blessing.

ALTE&ED NOTES.—Look out for five dollar bills on the Prairie City Bank at TerreHaute, altered from ones. The altered notes have for vignette a locomotive and train. The genuine have for vignette a steamship. In the altered note the figure 5 is on both upper corners in the genuine it is on the upper right hand corner and lower left hand corner. Well done and calculated to deceive.—Lafayette Courier.

A DARING ROBBERY.—Tho Express office of Messrs. Adams fe Co., at Sacramento, was robbed on the night of the 28th of April. The particulars are communicated in the following letter in- tho AUa California

SACBAJCKNTO, April 30, 1853.

A boh! and daring robbery of Adams & Co.'s office was committed last evening about 10 o'clock, at Mormon Island. The office is superintended by Mr. Nicholas and two assistants the former had retired and was asleep in the inner room, only approachable from the rear of the house. The others vers preparing to retire, when two persons came in, (Americans,) asking for letters. In an instant each presented a pistol at the clerk's heads threatening their lives if they spoke or stirred, at the same time giving a low whistle, at which five others (three of them Spaniards) came in hastily, Bragged and bound the clerks, and commenoed searching the premises. fe- I

1 1

In a few minutes one of them asked where Nicholas was, and keeping silent, they insisted on one of the clerks calling him stating that he was sick. The gsg was removed and he resisted for two hours, unil repeated punctures with their knives forced him to call, and Mr. Nicholas on coming to the front door was immediately seized, bound, and gagged like the rest. The search was continued, taking, the key of the safe from Mr. Nicholas, when they vamoted, taking all the funds on hand with them, about $6500 as near as could be ascertained. After great exertions Mr. Nicholas succeeded in freeing his arms, and releasing the others, when a gong was sounded, the inhabitants roused, and chase commenced hut all traces of them were lost at the Sixteen Mile House.

The city police are on the alert, and it is not probable that the robbers can escape.— This audacious theft has startled the community, and the summary punishment of the offenders is much to be desired,

A negro left Mormon Island the day before with $3000 on his person, and between the Twenty Mile House and Sixteen Mile House he was missed. Blood stains were tracked for a mile, when the clue was lost, and the body could not be found. The description of a suspicious person, seen in that vicinity, was forwarded to Mormon Island, and Mr. Nicholas slates the leader of the robbers answers to the description. There is no doubt that the negro was robbed and murdered.

A reward of 82000 is offered by Mr. Richardson, Sacramento agent of Adams 61 Co lor the oapture of ths thieves, and twentyfive per cent, of all the money recovered.

The Italian Exiles,

The N. Y. Commercial says that violent altercations hav^e taken place between the offioers and crew of the Sardinian sloop of war Giovanni, recently arrived there, and the political exiles whom they brought with them. These exiles fled from the Austrian dominions to seek the protection of the Sardinian Government,but the latter power finding it impossible to shield the refugees, without incurring the risk of troubles with Austria, and being unwilling to surrender them, very liberally, as would appear, gave them a passage in a national vessel to America, besides giving them a gratuity of 915 on landing. For this they should be grateful but they alledge that they have been badly treated on the voyage. They complain ol the fare allowed to them, though the Captain says they had all that the crew had— bread, cheese, wine potatoes &c. The Captain of the frigate has been much annoyed at their conduct, and that of some of their New York friends, and declares that, but for having commenced planting his vessel, he would at once leave port.

OSrThe New Albany Ledger says: The Austrian Government have prohibited the evangelical clergy of Bohemia from calling themselves pastors and their districts from being called dioceses, it demands that converts to Romanism educate their children in the Roman Catholic faith, but will not allow converts to Protestantism to educate their children as Protestants. In case of mixed marriage, one party being Protestant and the other Roman Catholic, if the father is Catholic all the children must be so but if the fathers ere Protestant, only the boys can be educated in the Protestant faith.— The circulation of Protestant tracts is forbiden, though it has been customary for the past twenty years. All of the above regulations are either new or enforced with rigor.

Five Rottllif Catholic Priests In Bohemia have become Protestants within the last few months.

^ATHOLIG DECREES.—The decrees of the first Roman Catholic Council in Canada, which was convened in Quebec, have been approved by the Pope in consequence of which they were publicly read from the pulpits, and have become virtually the ecclesiastical law of the land- One of these decrees prohibits secret societies. Catholics who hsve anything to do with them cannot obtain absolution for their sins. Another decree refers to the "mixed schools.*' which are pronounced "altogether dangerous."All the Catholics are bound to raise unceasing opposition against them. A Catholic Normal School is declared to bo highly do tirable, oto.

DN*© DECLARATION AND SJONS AS TESTIXOMX.—The Supreme Court of Massachusetts tiecided, a few days ago, that where a person has boon prevented from testifying orrally by injuries received, signs may be resorted to, provided the person so testifying is fully aware that he is in a dying condition, which is deemed equivalent to the solemnity of an oath. After such testimony has heen received, it is for the court and jury to judge of the condition of mind of the person at the time, and also of the credibility of the statements so made.

It is indeed a gloomy task for us to reoord a death occurring so suddenly, and at a period of life so full of hope. Enjoying as we did quite an intimate acquaintance with the Deceased—and in view of her many virtues and excellences—we are led to say that death's unerring shaft has taken from her family, and acquaintances, an amiable companion and a good friend.

In the early Spring-time of her life—when her,'heart beat lightly with the bright anticipation of a happy future—she was snatched away—we trust to realize the joys of another and a better world. "Thu» lived—thos died she never more on hor
