Hon. Smith Miller.

Our readers have heard ere this the fact
that this gentleman has received the nomina-
ton OF the late District Convention, for re-
election to Congress the ensuing October
He has served one long session already, SUI.
fcient to give evidence that h. makes faith
full representative OF the people-he has been
always at his post, attending to the business
of his constituents, both private and political
his votes have been judicous with but one
exec ption, AMI even that one--his Nebraska
vote-in all probability will be endorsed by
large majority of his democratic constituents
but we cannot commend it, upon the
ground OF unwise pol'cy-he has done the
deed. we can but regret it, and exclaim, "with
all thy faults we love thee still"
[Princeton Clar.
We never saw a Democrat with so many
faults, but his party would love him STILL
Ifthey love Miller at all, they must love him
still, for he has certainly been doing nothing
lately, except trying to secure the nominal
ton. We should like to hear from our little
friend of the Clarion, who has been opposing
the Nebraska bill too, what business Mr..
Miller has done which permits the Clarion to
speak OF him as ga faithful representative Of
the people," &c. We have watched his
course closely, and with the exc option Of
voting for the infamous Nebraska Bill, and
against the Homestead Bill, and working in.
dustriously to effect the removal Of several
petty Postmasters. have not found single
thing to prove the First District OF Indiana
has had Representative in the present
Congress. But probably our friend of the
Clarion has had sharper eyes. II so, and he
has seen anything rendering the course of
our Representative particularly luminous, We
hope he will at once tell the people.
The Evansville daily journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ia. [i.e. Ind.]) 1848-1862, 1854-07-25
A Misplaced Hope.

The Democratic Princeton Clarion intends
supporting Miller, ain hopes that if again
elected and opportunity offers, he will come
back to the National Democratic platform of
'52, and by his votes dscountenance in Con.
gress the fearful agitation that now disturbs
the internal peace Of this country" Well
this is rather an uncertain business to say
the least of disappearing man for Con.
gress, and Democrat at that, who are al
ways unsartin, in the hope that he will come
back 10 his old principles! He says very
distinctly that Miller has violated the Demo-
cratic platform, but in the hope that he will
come back to il, the Clarion supports him.
Now we can assure our friend, that Miller
won't DO any such thing. To do so, in the
particular alluded to by the Clarion, would
be to betray the very remarkable convention
which nominated him. II that hope is all
which sustains the Clarion in its support, we
do not think its support will be characterized
by much enthusiasm.

Oy-A correspondent Of the Vincinnees
Gazette dominates JOHN r. JONES for con-
gress, in opposition to SMITH MILLER, the
regular nominee. The writer says:
It's not to be denied that unfairness and
falsehood were resorted to TO defeat his
nomination at Petersburgh. tits noD known
that certain personal enemies Of his, there
busily circulated that Mr.. Jones would not
get one half the Democratic votes OF his own
county, if nominated; and such faIsehood was
so secretly circulated that no antdote could
go with the poison. tits we'll that the time
has come when Mr.. Jones should. appeal to
the people st large-should have an open
field and fair fight, that he may meet the
calumnies OF his personal enemies openly.
and have no fear of their secret intrigues,
petty tricks, and cunning schemes.

PITCHING IS.-Our Democratic friend Of
the Princeton Clarion, thus pins back his
ears and pitches into some Of his brother Lo.
cofocos. He is evidently throwing stones
into pretty big crowd, and can't fail to hit:

cal hucksters, who having acquired petty
influences in certain grog shop circles, pratt

tegrity, dishonest and corrupt, talk about

when it is notorious that the decent members
of the party have made every effort to purify
itself OF such scum but without avail, for the
opposition refuse to take such unprc6table
leecscs. We do not aim at any personal allu-
sion in these remarks, but should any read

wear it kindly and look upon these remarks

ATTEMPT AT SUiciDE.-A French lady on
Main street made an unsuccessful attempt
yesterday TO commit suicide, by shooting
herself with pistol. She discharged the
pistol from appearances in the direction of
the breast, but did not take good aim. The
principal injuries consist in few severe
scratches, and il is believed by the attending
physician, that no part of the charge entered
the body. The occurrence is not unaccount-
able to those who know the lady. She has
an industrious and kind husband, but is in
temperate herself.

Hon. John L. Robinson made another
speecb here last Saturday afternoon On the
Nebraska question. He had lost so much
credit in Gibson that he appeared rather un-
easv to retrieve himself. Mr.. McMasters
got hold Of him up there, and whipped him
so badly, that he was promised a rotten-egg
reception If he ever appeared again. Ta's
time he fell into the hands of Conrad Baker,
ESQ.,, who gave him good start to the next
place of speaking. We cannot conceive
better evidence of the weakness of the Me-
braska bill in the hands Of Northern men,
than the fact, that man of the ability OF
Mr.. Robinson, and who has posted himself
thoroughly on the subject, and made scores
Of speeches on it, should have delivered 80
miserable mass Of sophistry and nonsense
for speech as he did here in his remarks OF
last Saturday.
If nothing better than that can be done,
we advise our Democratic friends to seize
some other hobby. The clap-traP express
sions and hits by which he secured applause
were the only things which seemed to cal
forth any expression Of feeling. His argu'
ments were "stale, fiat and unprofitable"--a
rehash of Congressional speeches, which
any school boy might have concocted will

Mr. EDIroR--
Dear Sir: As you are aware, left Evans.

destination Friday morning. Had a pleas

Otherwise, as Capt. Hite and his subordi.
mates are gentlemen of the first order, and
most excellent steamboatmen, giving to their
patrons value received in the way of good
eating and nice clean state-rooms; besides,
in a social point of view, they are just the
men for defeated Congressional aspirant to
get with. Therefore would suggest to my
unfortunate competitors who fell in the bat
tie so bravely fought at Petersburgh, with
their forces concentrated from everv portion
Of my brigade, to take voyage with these
gentlemen. 1t no doubt would have an
awakening influence, and in the future, when
our distinguished men visit Evansville for
the purpose Of defining their positions and
discussing some of the great national topics
of the day, after such voyage they certainly
will keep wide awake.
i found st. Louis as left 1.-THE hottest

paired to the U. s. Snag Boat No. 2, and
found all well and doing we'll. After settling
some government business, was then invi-
ted by Capt. N. NJ. Ferguson, of the U. 8.
Boat No. 8, to partake of government du-
ner with him, which readily accepted. 1t
would be useless for me TO say anything
about the magnanimity of Capt. Ferguson.

DEATH OF JOHN NJ. SrocKwELL, ESQ
The long anticipated event has happened,
and our friend and fellow-citizen John NJ.
Stockwell, Esq. is dead. He died last Sum
dao at Union Springs, KY, whittier he had
gone in the hope Of reviving in some degree
his fast failing health. He died of the con-
sumption. He was one of our most promi-
nsnt, energetic and liberal citzens-a gen.
tleman in every trait of character, and man
in all the better attributes Of human nature.
Warm hearted, sociable and amiable, he has
left more than an ordinary number of friends
to regret his departure. But the community
(which he had so long lived, has sustained ,
loss, which in its great heart as in the hearts
OF his friends, cannot be replaced.

OF 1t will be perceived by correspondence
in another column, that Brig. Gen. Great
house is not yet dead. We knew it was not
in the power of Petersburgh Convention
to kill him. He is philosopher of the old
school, and the trials and tribulations of po-
litical life, and all their up.risings and down
tumbliugs, don't so much as disturb his appe-
tite, as will be seen by reference to bis din
ner with Capt. Ferguson. He passed here
Sunday on his way to Louisville, and will be
among his friends again in few days. We
think Bill is rather more fortunate than Mr.,
Miller. He, the General, can even now re.
turn to the bosoms of his friends, and to the
enjoyment of rural happiness, while Mr.. Nil.
Ter will not be able to do SO till after the pre-
sent Congress. He will never 60 to Wash

Pine WOODS PASTURE AND SOUTH
.ERN Cows,--IIundreds Of cows, that
range in the pine woods of the South
ern States, do not give quart Of milk
a day, and we have often seen the
milking of a COW in pint cup, with,
out filling it. The animals are gen.
orally poor, small, scragged creatures,
and their calves look like foal Of the
mother of the woody horse. 1t is a
common thing, that planters with
large herds have to buy butter, and
go without milk. The deficiency is
generally charged to the climate
This is not the cause, The truth is
to be found in the fact that the nat
ural grass Of the extensive pine lands
Of all the Southern States, is almost
entirely destitute of phosphate of
lime, without which, the COW cannot.
produce abundant milk; her calf can
aot grow rapidly. for it gets no bone
material.
