e. - ments, &c.


After brief absence, we have again resum-
ed our duties, and with great pleasure take
our readers by the button in familiar con-
verse. Under the management Of our able
and faithful associate, Mr.. Kenyon, the COL
umns Of the Journal have doubtless given
no token Of the absence of his co-laborer-
but we hope those same columns will ere
many months shine out SO beautifully in new
types, as to prove our absenc, has been mark
ed BY some practical effect. We had intend.
ed enlarging the Journal very materially,
but after careful calculation, a proper con.
sideration of the advice of older publishers,
and in view of the fact of the high and in.
creasing cost of printing paper, we very
wisely concluded that an entire change of
type OF smaller size. yet from its clearness us
easily read as that we now use, would be
better improvement and equally acceptable
to our patrons. A. present, we are almost
unable to crowd in the advertisements press
ing upon US. even BY curiailng the quantity
Of reading matter, and some additional ac-
eommodation is essentially necessary. In
the course Of two or three months or lees,
we shall issue the advertisements Of the
Journal in Agate type, the smallest used in
the advertising columns Of the Cincinnati
papers. BY next fall, if necessary, the read
ing matter will be put in smaller type, and at
all events. in new type copper-faced. Thus
much for the contemplated Improvements in
the paper.
We have also made handsome additions
to our Job Office, being fully determined to
place this department OF par with tie best
job Offices OF Louisville. With these add.
tons, and a large assortment of cards, job
papers Of different kinds, &c, &C., to be
shipped this week rom Cincinnati, we hope
to be able to crafty the wants Of our numer-
Gus patrons.
Such arrangements have also been made
a. will in a short time We hope, ensure the
establishment Of Bindery in this city, with
all the appu tenances for executing work oil
any hind in the best siyle-au improvement
very much needed by us at least, as we have
been compelled to send good deal # work
to distant cities through the want OF such ar
establishment.
We need not say that the additions and
improvements mentioned, very naturally re-
quire considerable outlay of money, and We
hope that it may be justified by an increased
patronage and the prompt payment OF bills

The cars on the E. g. G.. Railroad arrived
little after the usual time last evening, ow-

baggage car of the track, just the other side
Of White River. No damage of consequence
was done, however. White River bridge
was still standing. A large number OF men
were employed in pushing away the Drift
The river was still rising slowly last evening,
but is probably falling this morning. We

Saturday Nights.

What blessed things Saturday nights are!
and whas would the world do with nut them.

hearts to beating softly as they used 10 20
before the world turned them into war-drums
and Jared hem into pieces with tat;oos.
Saturday right-the ledger closed with
clash, the iron vault door comes TO with
bang; the rumbIing ard j,rring sound Of the
press. and gwen the click OF the type, are not
heard; the lin and dusty shops are swept up;
the hammer is thrown down and the apron
doffed; up goes the shutter with will; click
goes the key in the lock, and Labor hsstens.
with light steps, homeward bound. The
door that has been sjar oil the week gently
closes behind him, and the world is shut out.
Here are his treasures, after all, and not in
the vault and not in the bouk-save in the
records of the old Family Bibie--not in the
bank.
Thanks to the piety of our ancestors! To
them we are Indebted for the respect which
we entertain for the holy Sabbath. No peo-
pie regard this day with higher respect, and
look forward to it's a vent with more inter-
est, than Americans. And we'll they may.
To it they are indebted for their character
as people, and for their position they now
hold among the nations of the earth.
There's divinity which shapes our ends.
Rough hew them will
No one who has knowledge of human
weakness, and oil the blindness OF human
foresight, will for a moment deny that, we
could not have escaped unharmed from the
trials amid winch we have te pass without the
smiles of heaven. Thanks TO the noble band
of patriots who laid the foundation of our
government! Their prayers and their acts OF
devoted lirty yet niger in the ear aud The eye
of the Great Being to whom they looked Tor

OF their lives to obey. Their pety and de-
votion has drawn down blessings upon the in
chihlren; and or Ibis rich legacy they ought
to follow their ex ,mnles.
Saturday night should be regarded by ev-
cry individual as the happiest period of the
" hole week. The cares and burdens which
he has endured in the prec. ding days of Ia
Dor, should be cast from his mind. Not
should he surrender the precious b. urs of tins

should spend tn IN in quiet preparation OF

doing, we not only benefit ourselves, but SD.
