The season has fully opened among the
merchants of this city, and there are many
traders from the Wabash now present and
visiting this place to make their purchases
The business of this season will far exceed
that of any other which has passed. Last
year the Cholera struck a heavy blow at the
business of Evansville, but this season the
city is healthy, and there is nothing to deter
merchants from making their annual visits.
while there is much to induce others to call
who have heretofore extended their trips to
distant cities. We are assured, that there
are larger stocks of goods of all kinds in
Evansville at present than there ever were
before. For the last two years, the whole
sale dealers of this city have been offering
their goods at prices which are calculated to
offer inducements to country dealers to pur-
chase here. instead of going TO Cincinnati or
New York. OF the prices there can now be
no complaint-of the goods, there are full and
complete assortments from which to select.
If we had several more wholesale Dry
Goods houses in Evansville, many of the
principal Wabash merchants would he in
duced to make their purchases here, instead
OF visiting the larger cities. In conversation
with member Of one of the principal Dry
Goods firms here, he expressed the strongest
desire to see other wholesale houses in the
same line established at this place; and the
senior member of the firm, has even labored
zealously to induce others to come. This
house does large business now, yet its sales
would be still heavier if other large Dry
Goods houses were to open here, and thus
offer the only inducement wanted to make
merchants in the interior and on the Wa
bash purchase at this city, who now visit
other markets. And these same men would
purchase, or purchase more largely than they
do, their Groceries, Hardware, &C., at this
place. By next season, we hope to see, and
anticipate seeing new houses Of his descrip-
ton opening at Evansville.
Yet we are glad to learn that the business
of this season opens SO heavily in this city,
and is of so healthy character With the rap
id growth Of Evansville, and the strong and
increased inducements that are being offered
to country merchants, we may hope to wit
ness propOrtionate annual increase of bust
ness in every department. We have repeat
eddy called the attention Of country merchants
to these Inducements, stating what they were,
and proving them such as well merited their
attention, and should secure from them trial
of this market. Let them visit this place. and
examine for themselves.

PORTABLE SAW MILLs.--A Mr. B. H.
Miles, has recently put up in Evansville, one
of Pages Patent Portable Saw Mills, which
A. H. Sanders, editor of the Journal, speaks
Of in the highest terms Of appreciation. 1t is
said that 1900 feet Of lumber can readily
be sawed by it in ten hours. The cost Of
this mill, complete in all its parts, is $500,
and a competent person is sent to put up
those sold. Would it not be advisable for
the BrucevlIe Plank Road Company TO pur-
chase one?-[ ViRcennes GGE.
We recommend this mill to Plank Road
companies, believing that it will be a source
of economy, and hurry on the works in rapid
style. ThismI will, we think, when it be-
comes known. build many plank road, that
otherwise would never be started. Three
two-horse wagons can carry it to any poin
oman ordinary road with ease. 1t is easily
put up. and not apt to get out of repair
Any one can manage it with few directions
and it can be run cheaply. In Illinois it ha
been used successfully, and now the prop~ie
tors are introducing it in this State, where W.
think it will give complete satisfaction.

Large Robbery.

Our Cairo correspondent in letter reeeiv-
ed on Saturday. gives the following statement
of large robbery on steamboat:
The steamer Ne Plus Ultra arrived at this
point to-day from New Orleans From her
officers received intelligence OF not only a
daring but an extensive robbery. Two indi-
viduals, whose names was unable to learn
who had just retained from California pos
sessed of twelve thousand dollars in cash
took passage on board the Ne Plus Ultra tor
st. Louis. About the time of the boats de-
parture from NewOrleans, the trunk contain
ing this money was forced open and the mos
valuable part Of the contents extracted A
thorough search OF the passengers and crew
was made, all however, without gaining any
clue to the stolen property. Circumstance;
connected with this robbery make it one o
the most mysterious ones ever known; in
deed the pecutiarlties Of the transaction arr
so strange and unusual that someare inclined
to doubt its occurrence.

RiChIand Sunk.

The small steamer Richland, owned and
commanded by Capt. Hugo, Of this place,
was sunk on the Falls last Thursday night
Capt. Hugo and family have arrived at this
city. The Louisville Journal of Saturday
says:
SUBTITLE steamer Rchland, a small
boat while trying to make port during the
fog night before last struck rock on the falls
close to the Indiana shore. She was then
run ashore and sunk. The Rchland was
floating at the time, her bow turned up stream.
She had but little freight and it will be most
ly saved. Efforts are being made to save the
boat also, but we do not know with what sue
cess. The Richland is not very valuable
She is owned at Evansville, and was on her
return to that pl ace at the time.

The Committees Letter.

Below we give the letter of the Committee
in answer to our reply. We have comment
ed sufficiently on this letter; yet we have
word of Introduction. They wish us to set
the Order right, before the public. So far as
under wrong impressions we have said
word calculated to place the Order in an i'm
proper position before the public, we have dill
igently sought in the same public manner, TO
correct the mistake. The Order has not the
least right to complain of US, noW-if it ever
had. Nor can we believe the mass of Sons
of Temperance in the city do complain ofus.
At least, we know there are many who ridi-
Guile the course of certain of their brethren,
and believe that we have Intentionally been
guilty Of no mistake. The fact of it is, we
have called down the Indignation of certain
members, because we told the tTuth-and
now they are angry with us, because we will
not break our own pledged word. In sigui-
flying that we could, if SO disposed, give the
names ofcertain Sons who had broken their
pledges, we stated a fact, and a fact which
the public knows as we'll as we do. To OBJ
tain full list Of these names, we had to
pledge our word not to betray them-yet
these unreasonable men, insist upon us break
ing our word. Had our word not been given
this, it would have been the same-we should
not have given up the names. And the last
way to get them from us, is to doubt the fact
OF our having them, or to throw out intima
tons of withdrawal of patronage in case o.
refusal. In making this intimation, the wri
ter OF the following letter, did not represent
the feelings of his Order, SO much as he rep
resented his own ideas, and what his own in
clinations would lead him to, when an oppon
ent is to be overcome, and cannot be defeated
by words. Persecution is then to be adopted
But here is the letter, with notes, which we
have thought proper to add, to "eorrect sun
dry misapprehensions and mistakes into
which " the writer has fallen:

HoRRID MURDER.-From the Terre Haute
Express, of the goth inst, we learn that the
Rev. Isaac Pearce, preacher of the denoml-
nation of United Brethren, was cruelty muir
dered in his bed by the side of his wife, on the
Friday night previous. Some one came in
during the night, who appeared to be &C
quainted with the peculiar latch of the door,
and inflicted blow upon his temple, evil
IDENTIFY with Ratchet, of which wound he
died in twenty-four hours. The wind was
blowing at the time, but other noise awaken
ed Mrs. Pearce, who'calied upon her brother
sleeping in another bed in the room. She
then felt for her husband, who appeared to be
struggling as if in fit. A light was struck,
and he was found in the agonies of death, and
did not speak afterwards. He was an inno-
cent, inofenSive man, and lived near Terre
Haute. There was an arrest made, but the
party proved himself at home when the muir
der was committed.
