We were blessed with enough rain
yesterday afternoon to lay the dust. Early
in the morning we had small shower, with
q good deal of wind. Anything for change
from the excessive heat.
The telegraph wires were down yes
terdsy between Terre Haute and Louisville,
and thus stopped for a time the passage OF
dispatches between Evansville and Louis.
willie.
DIR. Muehlbausen was about the
wharf yesterday morning, in pursuit Of an
apprentice boy whom he thought was about
TO leave him. He found him on one of the
wharfboats, but the boy, having no idea to
contend against superior force, took to his
heels. He was finally caught after having
given his pursuers a warm chase of halt
mile.
- The fine low pressure packet South
eruer is the st. Louis packet for tomorrow
morning. She will be down at an early hour
unless caught on bar. Several rooms have
been engaged on her this trip, by telegraph
by some of our citizens going to St. Louis,
who want rooms on the best packet in the
line, or quite as good as the best. They
will have pleasant trip, or else it will be
their own fault. The Southerner is new and
elegant, and her officers clever.
- The packet Fashion arrived here yes
terday morning at 81 O'Clock. She was de-
tanned by having in tow the hull and upper
works of the q. w. Kendell. She was TAX.
ing il to Shawneetown to be used as wharf.
boat. The Fashion brought no papers as
there were mono issued at Louisville on the
morning Of the 5th.
There was no packet yesterday from
s.. Louis. 1t was the Crystal Palaces day
but she has gone into the New, Orleans trade
and we presume no boat could be obtained to
take her place.
- The ]. P. Tweed arrived here yesrer-
day afternoon from New Orleans, crowded
boat and barge with emigrants. Tbess had
been good deal of sickness, but we did no,
ascertain the number of deaths. When
here she had ten sick persons on board, and
one dead man.

Birch Greek Reservoir.

The Terrs Haute Journal contains m ar.
ticle on the recent lawless cutting away Of
the Birch Creek Reservoir on the w. and E.
Canal, by which a thousand acres of water,
ten feet deep, were lost or spread over the
neighboring country. The importance of
this Reservoir to the Canal, in view of the
dry season, cannot be appreciated. 1t is to
be hoped the villions who committed the deed,
may be arrested. The Journal says:
Al business men who reccollect the want
of water last summer and fell on the Eel Rv-
'er Srnmitievel will appreciate this calamity
"A full supply bad been stored up in this Res
~srvoir for the appro aching dry season, but
'oy one act of midnigh illainy, it is all gone.
The breach will no .doSbt be Immediately
repaired, but at this late period there is little
prospect OF rains to Dill the Reservoir for use
this season.
II is supposed that number of lawless
'Ian must navel joined together in .perpetsa-
Sing 'his outrage. The shurtest night of the
year. (z2d June,) does not afford sufficient
hours OF darkness for the performance of so
much hare labor by one or two men. A few
months before the same bank was cut. but
was disc oyersd before breach was made.
The Trustees have built this Reservoir .t
a cost Of S30.6e0 to supply the want Of wa.
ter South Of this place. and to give to the
citizens and business men certain navigation
TO Evansville. They have paid damages to
the owpers Of the lands taken for the pur-
pose, end settled every claim but one, and
that one BY no means pressing. Every thing
that was reasonable he's been done to salts
fy those who live near the Reservoir, and i,
is difficult to conceive what could prompt
this act Of wanton des trY ctiou of a great and
valuable public work. This Reservoir ID
absolutely necessary to the very existence o.
the Canal South to Evansville. and the Trus.
tees have no choice but to main tain and kesE
il up.
