A European War Anticipated. The recent foreign new* from Europe indicate that war is brooding between that type of Despotism, Russia, and the tnrban* ed follower! of Mahomet in Turkey, ''in thirty year*, Europe must be Cosaaek or Republican," was ihe remark ot Napoleon aft« bi« is am rout RuuUn campaign. The' remark was made nearly thirty years since and athough made in a spirit of vindictive despondency there are some indications that ere long it will be fulfilled. The great con iist between Liberty and DetpotUm must soon be fought. Liberty may yet walk abroad In the garden*-of Be rope. Her hand may yet placlrtbe grape* of the South and Iter eye warm the snow dlifts of the North. In a contest between the Empire of theOdssack and Turkey, it is quite proba bte that both France and England, will be drawn into the struggle. In such a contest what would be the result. Humanity, will •wait it with profound concern. Russia within the last eighty years, spreading over Europe like an Arctic ocean, with its shores all takeu sway, hat advanced its limits until a comprehends near half the European Continent. The developement of Russia 14 iroin the force of vast barbaric energies moulded and compacted into one mass, and tnat mas a wielded by one man's capa oious mind and inconquerable will. The p/esent Emperor of Russia, is said to be the most accomplished, and brilliant, atid most formidable in intellect of any ruler upon a European throne. The intense fanattoi*m of the CI reck Church, and the desire fer its ascendancy over all Europe, Intoxi cate the enlightened few, and the ruder million of the enterprise. Turkey unaid ed antf unassisted by any other power, in a contest with her formidable toe Russia would be demolished in a moment. But the fiutions of Europe are too jealous of the over weaning influence and gigantic strength of Russia, to permit her to demolish her puny f»®. "The question (as asked by a cotempora* ry) in which we are chiefly int* sated ia: how will a war itiflutnoe our commercial proa, peels? It seems to us that we must bo gainers by dissention* abroad.

Exhibition at St. Marys.

The annual examination and exhibition of the pupiN at St. Marys Institute, took place on Tuesday last. Quite number of visitors were present, both from this city and elsewhere, and the exercises of the occasion passed off most agreabiy, the scholars displaying their usual proficiency in their re spective studies.

A prosecution was oommenoed in this place on Wednesday last against LTMAN E. KNAPP for Embezzlement, while Clerk in the Post-Office. Two separate cases of Embezzlement are alleged against him.

Hon. B. M. THOMAS of Vincennes, deliva chaste and beautiful address at the close of the exercises, which was listened to with profound attention,

The new Seminary building recently erec ted, and now nearly completed, is, by far the handsomest building in the county, and one of the finest we apprehend, in the State. It is three stories high, very commodious, and well ventilated, and will accommodate upwards of one hundred pupils. The building has been erected, at a cost of near 916.000.

JOHN Bturrort, an old and highly respectable citizen of this county, died at his residence on Friday afternoon last, lie was buried with the rites of Masonry, of which institution he was a worthy and devoted member. He leaves a wife and several children to mourn his loss. He was one of the pioneers of this city, having been a resident of the place for more than thirty years, lie had attained the age of 61 years.

The Agricultural Society of this County met at the Court-House oo Saturday Even* fog last, for the purpose of making the necessary preparations for the annual County Fsir. it was resolved to hold the Fair the Saturday next proceeding the State Fair, (October 8th.) soda committee of three farmer* and two artisan* were appointed to publish the list of premiums to be awarded by the Association at the Fair. The list will be published at an early day. We mucti regret to see such an apathy upon the subject of Agriculture a* is manifested in this eounty. In nearly every county in the State the subject of Agriculture, and the Agricultural Society, are regarded with the deepest interest. Here, it is quite otherwise. A County possessing the favored agricultural resource* which Vigo doe*, should be mo^ wide awake upon this important subject.

We trust that the approaching County Fair contemplated by the Society, will not pass by without a&y manifestation of interest upon the part of our mechanical and farming community. Bring out your fine slock, and elegant specimens of workman* ship, and try to vie in en honorable competition with your neighbor. If you can't "take the socks" now, you may have a proper spirit of emulation excited, which is worth a dozen premiums, or probably "better luck next time."

SECRETARY GUTHRIE UAOOEIKEOTTPSD.— The New York Herald paid high ftompliments to the several Cabinet ministers who accompanied the President to the great city, and specially daguerreotyped the Secretary of the Treasury. We think the description is a little rough, but pretty fair for the first silting. It presents him as the plainest Kentucky farmer-looking man that was ever at the head of the Treasury Department. He looks as if he had lived in the Western backwoods all his life, and had just come over the Alleghaniea to see something of the wonders of civilization on the seaboard. He might pass for a Davy Crocket redivius. His little eyes, his strongly marked agricul tural countenance, his muscular, raw-boned Herculean figure, his heavy, ungainly gait and drowsy, somnolescent style of con ver sation, would hardly warrant the presump lion that he is one of the most distinguished lawyers of Kentucky, where law is the general study of ambitious young men, and the readiest passport to political preferment But he is a singed cat. He speaks famili arly upon subjects of which one might think he had never heard, and here, in New York was not a whit more disconcerted bv the splendid thiugs around him, than a Caman che Indian. Not a whit.

Fugitive Slave Cnae at Indianapolis. This case is still unsettled, and it is quite probable that it will be some time before it will be brought to a successful issue, either for or against the freedom of the alledged fugitive. We understand that a prosecution has been commenced against Mr. Ellington, the claimant, for "Assault and Battery and False Imprisonment," upon John Freeman. The claimant is still prosecuting his suit, and has some strong facts and circumstances upon which he bases his claim successful, we hope to see the law carried out to its fullest extent We believe that the people of Indianapolis will see that the aw is vindicated in spite of their sympathy for the alleged fugitive.

The Democracy will have considerable of a Slate ticket to elect, according to present appearances. Our readers have already been informed that Judge Roache of the Supreme Court was about to resign his seat on the bench and take the Presidency of a railroad company ct a largely increased salary. We now see it stated that Judge McCarty, of the Circuit Court, is about to take*the same course, having been offered a railroad Presidency. It is unquestionably true that the salaries of our judicial officers are entirely inadequate to the amount of labor required. So long as a niggardly policy is pursued in establishing the amount to be paid to our public offioe.s. we shall be required to put up with the service* of second or third rate men on the bench. We have ever advocated a liberal support of all our officers, and ever shall.

PROGRESSIVE.—A modern writer has discovered the important fact, that the human hair i* vegetable. He does not say, however, how it should be cooked. We have seen it cooked repeatedly in style not at all adapted to our taste. Bread bearded, or with hair projecting out of it, cao be seen at all fetkionable hotels.

Cstxs is Cutctsmn.—The prevalence o! ctime in Cincinnati may be inferred from the following headings of articles ia lbs Gasette of Monday morning: "Man murdered Saturday night"Officers Attacked -Pockets Picked —"Bold Robbery "Stabbing Affair Another Disgraceful Fight at Mt. Auburn"Cruel Assault "Outrage "Inhuman Assault," to which add that a yoeng man. a straager in the cily, attending church at the Cathedral on Sunday morning, had hi* watch picked from his vest pockrt, leaving the guard chain hanging srovnd hi* neck.

His fine ability as a presiding officer and Parliamentarian, as experienced while Lieutenant Governor of the Skate, as President, virlvt* oficii, of the Indiana Senate, eminently qualify him for this position. Our State boasts few more cbivalric spirits than Col. Jim Lane.

We would refer reader to the advertise ment of STRAUB & Co., of Cincinnati, of their Mill Factory, which will be found in another column. These mills, are said by those who have tried them to be of a superior quality. We we would recommend our friends in want of a good mill, to give them a call. The advertisement speaks for itself.

Vigo Agricultural Society.

At a meeting of the Agricultural Sociiety held at the Court-House, in Terre-Haate, July 30lh, 1853, Thomas Durham first, took the chair as President, and Win. E. McLean appointed Secretary.

On motion of Judge S. B. Gookins a committee of five was appoimed 10 prepare and publish a list of premiums to be awarded by this Society, at the approaching County Fair, and as a committee of arrangement for the same.

The following geritlemeri Wre nominated and elected said Committee Thos. Durham, Frederick Markie, Corey Barbour, Rufus St. John, and Jos. Grover.

On motion of Mr. Markie the County Fair was fixed the Saturday previous to the State Fair, (October the 8th) and the plough ing match was for the day previous, if con eluded by the Society to hold any. *'On motion, the Society adjourned.'

The snob has other peculiarties which distinguish him. He does not eat like other people, nor talk like other people. He is a mere copyist. His voice is unnatural He says and does everythiag with an effort, His wit is a fleeted, He is gay when be should be serious, and serious when he should be gay. He swears strange oaths, uses strange expressions, advocates strange opinions, and with a strange infatuation, believes that every body is a stranger to his vanity and ignorance. Sometimes his conduct is natural, at other times it is singular but seldom wisely singular, and, we may sdd never singularly wise.^ ipg

As an instance of railroad progress, the Railroad Record mentions the fact that in 1838 it was announced that a trip by railroad would be made from Cincinnati to Sandusky, a distance of two hundred and sixteen miles, in the extraordinary short space of eighteen hours. Now the distance is made in seven hours, without creating any special wonder. There is no telling the wonders of a day, or the mighty revolutions of a year.

Snoba

The Forest City, published in Cleveland, has a capital article, giving a description of this numerous class of city denizens. .That paper has discovered that it is easy to dis tinguish a snob in whatever disguise he may appear. When you see a man thrusting himself into the company of the wealthy, and pass without notice honest and industrious citizens—set him down as a snob. When you see a man purchasing a new article of furniture, or anew carriage,'because a rich neighbor has done so—set him down as a snob. When you see a man dissipating the earnings of a month in the festivities of a single day, in order to create the impression that his means 'ore abundant—set him down as a snob. When you see a clerk who receives an ordinnry salary, purchasing a private-box-ticket at the theater—set him down as a snob. When you see a young man who lodges at a cheap boarding house, seat himself in the silting room or on the portico of a fashionable hotel, and smoke and pick his teeth—rest assured that he is a snob. He is a snob who dresses like some celebrated character, varies the style of his hat, his coat, or his, boots whenever he chooses anew antecedent: who conforms with a slavish submission to every fluctuation in the style or fashion or dress who anticipates his revenue to meet the demand* of bis vanity who borrows a cane, a wotch a ring,or a diamond pin, and takes pains to exhibit it to all his friends who boasts of the wealth of his ancestors and struts in the presence of his peers, complacently pockets the insults of the rich and mocks the infirmities of the poor.

Ail' Ocean Race*'

rivalry existing between theCunard

(English) and Collins (American) ocean steamers, running between New York and Liverpool, is widely known. It has been the

Tribune, that the Collins steamers have beaten the Cunraders. The English have been mortified-at this fact and have built four gigantic steamships, without regard to expense with the express design of triumphing over Jonathan. In February last, the Arctic, of the Collins line, made the Eastern passage in the remarkably short space of nine davs. seventeen hours and fifteen minutes. Ever since, the Cunarders have been striving to beat this time, and on her last Eastern passage the Arabia did it. Her running time was nine days, seventeen hours and seven minuies: Considering that the race was across the ocean, we consider that close running. On this little beat the English plume themselves amazingly, and claim that the question of ocean supremacy, is effectually decided. By the time that Jonathan has built four steamers expressly to beat the Arabia, we predict that she will be left behind more than eight minutes.

The miserable importer, calling himself Herr Alexander, in playing off* the hocus pocus of the msgic pistol in Clinton Ills, recently shot a young man named of George Smith, (who was to receive a flctious ball in his mouth) the pistol being loaded with balls, he received the contents in his sideIt ia supposed the young man cannot live. If the parties had been reversed, and the impostor the victim, there would have been little loss as it is, the young man. Smith, will leave a widowed mother, who was solely dependent on him for subsistence.

Whether the fun pays for the powder is a matter for debate.

A.v EPITAPH.—The Hartford Republican says, a friend who vUited the grave-yard in Glatensbury last week, copied the following lines from a tombstone ereclod in 1719 "Here lies ouo whose life's thread's cut asnnder,

She was struck dead by a clup of thmidrr." N. Y. Express.

European Politics,

If ever signs may be said to fail entirely in politics, they do so in regard to the Turkish question. The ordinary promotions of war seem in this instance to be interpreted by the rule ol contraries, and pass for the most satisfactory omens of peace. The Russian army, a hundred thousand strong, is on its march lor the Danube. The Russian fleet is making Sftil for the 13 sphorus. The Turkish fleet is mastered in the waters of that all-important channel. Ail Turky is alive with preparation for instant hostilities. The French and British navies, disregarding as they would not if peace existed, the prohibition against entering the Sea of Marmora are hastening to the Dardanelles. The ultimate ultimatum—its predecessor ought to have been styled the penultimatum—has been finally rejected by the Porte, at the end of the eight days* probation granted by the Czar. If we can trust the threats of that potentate, that war must instantly follow such rejection, war actually exists. And yet we have the most confident assurances from all quarters, that arms will not be resorted to that the difficulty will be settled by negotiation and that no thought ol actual hostilities has any place among the design* of the Emperor. No contradiction between facts and words was' ever so irreconcilable.—N. Y. Times.

A FAST PROPW.—The St. Psul Minnesotiwi of the 25h ult., is responsible for the following. It is a fast way of doing business, and beats Australia an£ California all hollow:

One of Slis*. B~ *s pupils young lady, stepped into the school room the oth er morning, and commenced gathering up her books, stating that she was very sorry that she was compelled to leave school. "For what reason!"mildly inquired her astonished teacher. "Oh, I was married last evening, that's all/* "Why did yoo not Inform me before?*' 'For the simple reason.* replied the blooming bride, "that I did not know it myself until during the same afternoon he never asked roe tut then!"

AUKST G. Foam, Esq., of Indianapolis, has received the nomination for that ©ffico, from the Democratic State Central Commute j, end such nominee will doabttese receive the votes of the Democrats of the State. Bat the Mere fact of his being meh nominee of the Committee should not of itself entitle him to the suffrages of the people. In popular elections, especially when connected with the judiciary of the State, orthodoxy or the political catechism, should net be the oaly qualification. When party Interest and the welfare of the country conflict a well-wisher of the latter would not hesitate which «f the two to sacrifice. Mr. Porter is not only a good democrat, bat what is very singular, an honest and honorable one! Mr. Porter is a graduate of the Indiana Aabury Univenity, in which lastitHntion he stood la the first rank, noted for his proficiency as a student and industry. Since be graduated he has studied ami commenced the practice of the law, in Indianapolis, and by his taleats unconquerable energy and psrseverance lias obtained a position as a iawyer, which few reach with much longer practice. At the request of the most influential democrats of the State the Governor appointed him to fill the vacancy occasioned by the decease of Horace Carter, Esq., aud he immediately entered upon the discharge of his duties with the energy which marks his character. A Reporter shout not only beatnan of talent, but haven Uescrimluatlng mind, with a thorough knowledge of the law nnd a willingness to perform severe labor. Such requisites Mr. P. poetesses, together with the knowledge which can be acquired only by the practice of the law. •Wabash," may be correct in his estimate of the character of Mr.^Gordon, and as lo his fitness to perform satisfactorily the duties of Reporter.— Wo have too much of low party strips and it is quite a relief to have two houorttble men before the people as candidates for the same office. Mr. Porter's friends expect and intend to elect him, not by rlllifyiug and traducing the character of Mr. Gordon or auy other man. but on account of his qualifications. If Mr. Porter ia elected we feel confident that the Reports of the Supreme Court will not loose the standing given to them by the talents and labors of Judge Blackford.

Vocnl Music.

The undersigned would make a rtfark or two on tho subject of the advertisement which appears In another column. That the practical knowledge ol vocal music Is, at the presut time, an attainment of almost universal desire, is a fact evidenced by the very general efforts made to posses* that knowledge.

That vocal ftnistc Is ma.nl poUhl as a means of promoting some of the purest pleasures of which our nature Is capable—that lite due cultivation of this precions art Is pregnaut with Increase of delights to bo enjoyed by the home circle around the family hearthstone—that It in, in vnrloun ways, greatly promotive of the public good—and Unit, consequently, the study and practice of the Divine Art of Song, have a high moral significance nud a social bearing of deepest import, are facts so fnliy recognized by every intelligent and reflectivemlud, that It were a work of supererogation to do more than, In passing, merely to glanco at them.

Impressed with a heartfelt love of song himself, and finding therein a source of pore and exqtiUlte enjoyment, the writer would fain devote winl little ability may hive been vouchrtfoJ lohltn, in ordor to share with the community a pleasure and a joy kindred lo those which he himsalf experiences from this source. IleValu are his chief motives. Ha seeks to enhance his own enjoyment, by endeavoring to! multiply and advance the truo pleasures of tho community. Should these motives be deemed legitimate, he would respectfully ask the cordial co-operation, nol only of pireuts and guardians, but of all who take nn Interest in the healthy cultivation of the musical faculty—.1 facuUy whose province it Is, not only to give voice, aud make an appeal to eVery sentiment snd emotion of tiie human breast, but lo cfll'd thiit In 0 mode so fascinating, as to transport us, the while, into a charmed treasure-house of tone riches—a treasury of riches to ravishing In their effects upon our awkward perceptions of tone beauty, and withai so majestic in lhelra}|3mn,aniso'jl^s'ibduliig power—so wondronsly moving in their ever vary* Ing forms of audible beauty and loveliness, and yet so abounding, that though with an ever growing relish we still move on to tho discovery aud appropriation of fresh gems of a more novel aud sparkling brilliance, we can nevertheless neither fuliy develops nor cxhanst them.

This long tongued visionary woman, end caulmniator of the South, is now in Kurope where she is being lionized by the haters of American.ift*tiiutions, and Republican liberties. She is the daughter of old Lyman Beectier, a Presbyterian Minister, and has five brothers who are Ministers of the same Church. Her hujbands is also a Minister, and at present, wo believe, is a Professor in Andover Seminary. They are all Abolitionists both male and female, and the lying book, styled Uncle Tom's Cabin, is believed to be the joint production of the entire family, manufactured for the occasion, and as a means of raising the wind. Her Ladyship, it is well understood, is the most talented member of old Lyman's family. But merciful God! She presents to the world the most hideous physiognomy ever gazed upon by the eye of man: She is as ugly as Original Sin—an abomination in die eyes of civilized people I A tall, coarse, vulgar looking woman—stoop-shouldered, with a long yellow neck, and along peaked nose—though which she speaks—an abomination in the ears of southern Negroes, who instinctively turn up their flat noses at die idea of using the nasal organ to aid the organ of speech. A daguerreotype of her Ladyship which we have sees, sours the stomach of a southern gentleman but lay, aside art and present tho reality, and a big black negro is affected with fbe intensest horror! Pigeon toed, knock-kneed, with a big foot and ancle, added to her long btoad side and flat cheat and ether personal charms, she may pa** through the southern negro kitchens at all time* without impressing a rude negro man that he will offer tha indignity sometimes offered to white women, who travel beyond their proper limits! il
