expectto hear, however, of some action soon
although what that action will be, is beyond
the speculation of man
But speaking of the dullness of things, oul
exchanges at this time are duler than we
ever knew them before. Editors are getting
wearied of discussing the Slavery question
and kindred themes-the people have no de

and there is nothing of local or home excite

hard time of it, especially as the weather
hot enough to melt their sweetest IDEAS
This quietness is so opposed to American

civ jealousy.

The petty jealousy OF each others city ex-
hbited by our contemporaries of Cincinnati
and Louisville, is anything but honorable or
dgnifed. Both are stars in the Western fir
mament-great and beautiful cities, and rap
idly increasing in extent and influence. 1t
should be a source of mutual congratulation
instead of small jealousy. that though sepa-
rated but a short distance, they are growing
with rapidity rarely equalled il tie history
of cities. Yet some of the editors appear to
think they are watchmen upon the towers
and walls of their cities, to sound the alarm
to the people, whenever an aggression should
be threatened by some act of Improvements in
the camp of the enemy II the wishes OF
these editors could come to pass, Louisville
and Cincinnati would stand still in all time to
come. But as yet we do not see that the
hostile wishes of one city have at all inter
fered with the prosperity of the other. Let
them act with dignity, and this dignity will
be their best policy. Let them recognize
the great virtues OF each city, and emu
ulate that which they have not yet rivaled.

Rending Room.


Byreference to a notice in another column,
it will he seen that subscription papers will
next Monday be in the hands of several citi-
zens, for the establishment of Reading
Room in this city. During last winter we
were often urged by some of our citizens to
undertake the enterprise of establishing a
Reading Room. We promised to lend what
aid we could, and supply it with papers and
periodicals, and even take charge oft, if the
proper subscriptions were got up to pay ex-
penses. These expenses were light, fuel,
rent, boy, &c. We had not the leisure or
sufficient acquaintance with the citizens, TO
act otherwise in the enterprise Individually
Nothing was done, but now after conversation
with several citizens who feel the same warm
interest as before in the enterprise, we have
concluded, with the help Of such assistance as
may be volunteered, to start Reading Room
Now, then, we wish to see how far thi,
spirit really exists, of which wehave heard 81
much. We shall do our part. and withou
the expectation of realizing a cent profit.
We have an excellent room, better adapted
to the purpose than probably any other il

SENATE.
MIR. Foote introduced a resolution calling on
The President for all orders, cores ondence,

ry Governor OF New Mexico and the procIa-
nation issued by him for this organization OF
a State Government. The resolution lies
over.
The omnibus bill drove up at P. NJ, when
Mr.. Douglass replied 10 that portion Of Mr..
SauPs recent speech relating to the public
lands Of California.
Mr.. Webster next took the floor, when the
further consideration. of the bill was postpon-
ed.
Mr.. Clay moved that the order fixing the
hour of the Senate's meeting at | l A. NJ. be
removed. In remarking upon the delay at
tending the action upon the bill then pend
ing, he referred to the fact that the French
Chamber in ten days, Racted upon and passed
bill affecting the great interest of franchise,
while the Senate had sat two months on one
bill, with no prospect of a CONCLUSION.
Mr.. Hale thought the French Chamber
would have done we'll TO have spent even
three times the labor on the subject referred

question pending here before they decided to
pass that infamous measure taking from one
half OF the people Of France The elective fran

HOUSE.
Mr.. Stanton, of Pa, asked leave to intro
duce resolution calling on the President, if
racticable with the public interests, to COM
munictlte to the House all orders issued by
any Of the Departments Of this Government
to any military or other in New Mexico. and
the dispatcfts received therefrom; also to
communicate any information which may
have been received relative TO a call Of Il con-

that he inform the House whether. if such
Il call has been made, the same has been done
by advisement or approval of the Executive.
and by whom or what authority such pro-

Mr.. Otis objected, and the resolution lies
over.
The House then proceeded to consider the
reports OF the contested election case of Iowa.
On motion ofMr. Wand yke, DIR. Miller who
contests the seat of Mr.. Thompson, was al

IEnr the InnrnaLl

Mr. EDITOR In your able and highly
popular Journal, the attention of the public
is often attracted by your lucid and appropri-
ate views, setting forth the great advantages
to be derived from Plank roads, Railroads,
Canals. &c, &c. These improvements, no
doubt would add much to our commercial and
agricultural prosperity, but while they are
advocated, there is another matter, of a local
character, and in my opinion, of more lmpor
lance to our well being, shamefuIly neglected
by our citizens, and to which | beg leave,
thro you, to call their attention, viz: educa-
ton. or the Improvement Of the mind; and up
on which depends the great desideratum with
all true patrots-the maintenance Of repub
lican principles, and the perpetuity of our
/ glorious Union! Now, sir, the city olEvans-
vile can boast of men possessing public spir-
! it, perseverance and energy, equal to any
other place of its size in the West-but the
great motive seems to be personal aggran-
dzement, or an accumulation Of the filthy
ucre, while the mind, ''the dome of thought"
the palace of the soul . is sadly neglected,
to the great injury Of those, who, by the
course of nature, must be called upon Chow
ever able) to ell our places at no distant
day.
Why have we no establishments here
where, at least, the youth of our city can OBJ
tain an education, suited to their wants and
inclinatons? Are we not as wiling to en-
courage, and as able to support Male and
Female Academy as our sister cities, New
Albany or indianapolis? | hope and think
) we are and all that is wanting, is to have
such an Institution established in our midst as
our necessities require, in my opinion, to lie

material is not here at present, l venture tt

She hardly seem'd as mortal; yet I've watched
How soon fatigue hath wearied her; the hectic

Which wait on all below; yet none could think
That she, so lovely would so soon be gone.
They tell me she is dead-what means the wordl
She hath departed from my sight indeed

Divided us, ere she was called away;
We could but know each others heart and ours

And turn, to meet thy spirit hov'ring near;

Pure as thy Maker form'd thee; yet the heart
Still thine, which l so dearly lov'd on earth.

Until MY race be run. And when It's DER,
When calm and conscious of a welI-spent life

To welcome me to regions of the blest,
And herald me to joys uputterable.

Madison and EvansviIIc.

The Evansville Journal of the 18th inst
says that Madison is more beautiful place
than Evansville; but, aside from it's heavy
pork operations in winter its business is not
comparable with that of Evansville. Right
Mr.. Sanders. Aside from the heavy business
transactions, our beautiful city is compare
Bile with Evansville and Shawneetown; but
it is the heavy operations that designate the
city, and make up the difference between
cities and towns. But the Evansville editor
says again that indianapolis compares with
Evansville in point of business and progress
something like Madison-comparing Evans
vile, with its one story houses and nine thou
sand inhabitants, with the three-story houses
and fifteen thousand inhabitants of Madison
The attentions shown our friend during his
visit to the settlement around the Burnet
House has turned his head.
Madison Courier
The Editor of the Courier did not write
the above with the fairness and candor, which
marked our article. We gave Madison full
creditor everything she possesses. He gives
Evansville credit for nothing. He should
know, that in all 4" henvy business operations"
with the exception of Pork, Madison Is behind
Evansville. Our shipping business last win
ter was greater than that of Louisville. We
have acknowledged Madison prettier place
than this, and if the Editor of the Courier
exhibit like cander, he will acknowledge
Just as much for the business of Evansville
as we do for the beauty Of Madison. With
our one story houses and nine thousand in
habitants,'' we can set an example in the way
of doing an extensive business, which some
places of athree-story houses and fifteen
thousand inhabitants" might in vain attempt
70 initiate.
