To TIE EDITOR OF JOURNAL:
The subject OF the Straight Line Railroad
has been again thoroughly discussed by the
Hon. Willard Carpenter. Of your city He
addressed large and respectable audience,
1t the Court House in Petersburgh, ON the
lst May, 1854, setting forth in his usual ear
nest, energetic and logical manner, the
great advantages our citizens will realize
from the making and completing of this great
thoyoughfare. Mr.. Carpenters object at
this time was to get the citizens (whose land
the Road passed through) to grant the right
Of way, and to make up the amount of stock
required Of them to secure the present loca-
ton Of said road.
The following preamble and resolutions
were then read:
WHEREAS, The Board of Directors of the
E. I. and c. s. l.. X. R. Company require
from the citizens of Pike county, the sub.
scription of 100000 of Stock IN said Road;
and,
WHEREAS, About $40. 900 Of the same has
already been subscribed; and,
WHEREAS, Mr.. w. Carpenter has agreed
to subscribe $4,000 Of the remainder; there
fore, in order to secure the present line near
est to Petersburgh, as the permanent loca-
ton of said Road,
Resoiued. That the Directors from Pike
county be authorized to pledge, at the next
meeting of said Board Of Directors, that the
citizens will subscribe the rem aiming S35 900.
And be 1t further resolved, That the friends
of this enterprise, in Pike county, do agree
to subscribe the said sum Of $500 within
six months from this date. May LIST, 1854.
The above was put to vote and passed
unanimously.
On motion Of Mr.. G.. Morgan,
Resolred, That the citizens be called
upon TO subscribe the amount Of S35, 900 to
warrant the Directors in making said pledge,
which was adopted.
And be At further resolved, That a copy Of
the proceedings of this meeting be sent to
the Evansville Enquirer and Evansville Jour.
nal for publication.
The meeting then adjourned.

SHOCKING DEATH.-Yesterday afternoon,
about O'Clock, an Irishman named Cornell
ius Corning met with a fatal accident at the
west end of the draw-bridge. 1t appears that,
in company with his wife and another man
and woman, he was returning to his home
near st. Mays, with wagon filled with
household furniture including two or three
barrels of flour, upon one OF which he was
sitting when crossing the bridge. At the
opposite side Of the bridge there is quite a
jog, and as tho wagon went off into it the
man was PreciPitated forward, falling imme-
diately before the wheels, which passing
over his left breast caused almost instant
death. Drs. Clippengar and Evans were in
immediate attendance, but it was of no avail

and his heart bursted II Prairie Gin, 5M.

Many Of our readers have no doubt heard
the rumor that NJ. Critic nden was Kissed on,
OF the National Medical Convention recent.
ly held at st. Louis. The following extrae,
from the st. Louis Morning Herald thus ex-
plains the whole affair:
"The Hon. John J. Crittenden,. of Ken
lucky, but more recently as the volunteer de-
fender Of the murderer Ward. was actually
Kissed out of the National Medical Conven-
ton, on Thursday afternoon.
This is one of ,ae most unkiDd cuts q dis
tlnguished stranger ever received in st. Louis,
and it is only one of the many irsults this
great man may expect TO receive hereafter.
We have'been admirers Of this man, plac.
ing him next TO Harry OF the West" but
that day has passed, never to return. We
are inclined to think il must have been rath-
Notifying TO him To receive this rebuff, in a
strange city, aud the first public assemblage
in which he has made his appearance since
the trial of Matt. Ward. II appears that a
motion was made that this gentleman be in
vited to take seat on the platform, along
with the President Of the Convention, but
the very moment his name was ennounced,
a un iversal shout Of "No!" was sent forth,
mingled with Kisses and stamping of feet,
which did not cease until he left the hail.
Apparently not satisfied with this emphat-
ic condemnation of his late most miserable
act by the medical fraternity, he had the
temerity to show himself at the supper, at
the Mercantile Library Hall, given by the
medical profession of this city to the dele
gates in attendance on the National Conven.
ton. He was there, however, treated with
silent contempt. He was not toasted, and
no opportunity was given him to speak. We
regard this as cutting and most merited re-
buke. No man, however great or exalted
he may be, who oufrages public justice as
this man has done, can escape the just indig-
nation which q wronged public will most
surely heap upon his head"
