How the Cermans stand.

We repeat our remark that the Germans
without distinction of party, are emPhatlcally
against the Nebraska bill. There are excep-
tons of course, but the mass occupy the atti-
tule we say they do-and the Enquirer kno~s
it. They have the very best reason for OPP
posing this bill, aside from their own natural
love of liberty and republicanism, and hatred
to slavery in all forms. AS the editor of the
Enquirer says he is in the habit threading
the Volksbote with dictionary, We hope he
will study the Germans themselves and their
opinions, with little brains. He will then
not commit so many bunders in speaking OF
them, nor SO frequently insult them, unless
he do SO purposely. The Reporter" after
attending last nights meeting, probably has
changed his opinion little about German
Democrats supporting the Nebraska Bill
He has room to do so at all events, provided
he lie at all honest in entertaining the opinion
he has expressed, which we very much doubt
The Evansville daily journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ia. [i.e. Ind.]) 1848-1862, 1854-03-17

Yearly advertisers in sending their adver-
tisements, will please pay attention to the
space they are authorized to use by contract.
Our principal contracts with merchants are
Tor two or three squares, changeable as the
contract may designate, each square being ten
lines. We are too crowded at this time to
allow space to be overrun by our friends, much
as we are disposed to accommodate. We
have now several columns of new ADVERTISE
ments awaiting insertion. Under this condi-
ton OF things, and especially as the advertis-
ing rates in this city are very low, we shall
stand strictly to contracts, and endeavor to
fai' hfuly perform our part at the same time.

ments, &C., and it seems scarcely road has
escaped. Our own road, the Evansville and
Charlottesville Railroad, may be called an ex-
ception, for the only injury it received was
scarcely an accident noticeable by the CON-
munties at the termni. The White River
Bridge, the finest and most substantial rail-

upon which the company are preparing bond:
to limited amount, to aid in the rapid con
struction of the work. Although this is q
new line, yet the importance of its connec
tons, and the aid it will afford the roads al
ready built, with which it will be the con
Meeting link, will make it an exception to the
remarks we have made as to the construction
