other reading matter, this week by the necessa-
ry publication of the City Charter. s
This is an important document TO the people
Of Evansville, upon the adoption or rejection of
which they will be called to vote, as will be
seen by the Tend section, on the first Monday of
April. 1t should, therefore, notwithstanding
its length, be examined by every voter with
great care. II prepared under the super
vision of the present Board of Trustees after
model which has been much approved elsewhere
in this State, and il is believed 10 be admira-
bly, fitted to accomplish The objects of such an
instrument; while the old charter is admitted
to be laInentably deficient.
If Adopted, as we presume it PROFESSIONALLY
will be, it will require considerable ability as
well as knowledge of the law itself, 10 put the
"wheels of government in motion snder it,
On this account we are glad to learn that Jas.

The following letter from Col Marshall was enclosed to us from Vicksburg, and re- ceived only yesterday. It gIves the particu- prisoners after the battle of Bnena Vista, and exhibits, in conspicuous light tie gross perfidy of the Mexican Government Tn de- iaining the Encarnation and other prisoners taken previous to that battle. Col Marsha|l's suggestion of retaliatory measures is just and proper. though we doubt if such will be enforced, unless Govcrnmen, gives instrmc- sions to that effect:

His business was To enter iuto the preliminsEies for the exchange. was called upon to furnish the list of the officers and men of my regiment who were prisoners, and did so. conversed with Faulaco as to the situation of the prisoners. He told me ,ha. Maj. Gaines's party was in Mexico, but ii was probable Capt. Heaay's patty was in San Louis. He accepted the list, copied, think, by Col.
