The supply of Quinine in this market is just
now about exhausted. There were buyers
here from Terre- Haute on Saturday and a
number Of orders came in yesterday from the
country. The druggists will probably receive
further supplies to-day The sales Of Qui-
nine for the past few weeks have been very
heavy Finoennes Gazette.
Our Quinine market was pretty dry yes
terday Vincennes had made demand for
the article which cleaned out the drug es-
Establishments here. We will be all right to-
day, and in the meantime the public can have
free shake!

The Firemen's Parade.

AS we have already announced, the Fire
men are making extensive preparations ior
their Parade and Ball on the Sd inst, next
Thursday. In another column will be found
a programme of their doings, including the
places and times of the meetings of the respec-
tive companies, the line of march, &C., &C.
Jas. E. Blythe, Esq. will deliver the address.
In the evening there will be Ball and Sup
per, which we trust will be well patronized -
Those who do not go, should at least buy tick
cts to help the Firemen in paying the expenses
natural to the occasion. This will be the first
parade of the Firemen, and we promise it will
be an affair in all its details worthy of the men
who are getting it up. The safety of our city
depends upon a thorough Fire Organization
Nothing better conduces to preserve this or
ganization in its full unity and efficiency, than
occasional Parades, in which all the companies
are brought together in a general Festival, and
are called upon to exhibit the apparatus for
public inspection. 1t creates a good feeling
among the companies, at the same time the
community is permitted to see the men and
machinery upon which they rely so much for
the preservation of their property. We truly
hope the Parade now in view, will rebound
to the credit Of the city as well as Of the Fire
Companies, as we feel well assured it willard
that it may be followed every year by some
similar demonstration.
By reference to the published programme,
it will be seen that the Firemen are not going
to have any halfway affair of this Festival
They will have the most interesting out door
exhibition our city has ever SEEN The Gun
Squad, with their splendid piece of brass artil-
lery, will form part of the procession, and
will be heard as well as seen. We trust they
will have fine day for the parade. The
weather has been dreadfully mixed up" lately
so that it is difficult to make any meterologi,
cal speculations even day ahead.

or The news by the next steamer is looked
for with,exceeding great interest. An abstract
of the news will be found in the Daily Journal
the day after the steamer arrives in New York
and the news moreover, cannot be obtained
by our citizens through any other paperin this
city till at least the day after it is published
in the Journal. Recollect that.

State Fair.-E. . Q. Railroad.

We are authorized to say that passengers
and freight going to the State Fair, to be held
the third week in this month, will be taken
over the Z. & c. Railroad, at halt prsce, This
measure will, we presume, induce great
many persons to go to this Fair, who had not
intended being present Every part of the
State will be largely represented at Indianapo-
lis during the Fair, and "the Pocket" we have
no doubt will send hundreds to the good
gathering A new interest has of late been
awakened in agricultural matters, throughout
Indiana, and the State Fair will illustrate the
effects of this new life among oar farmers
We look for the finest and most extensive ex-
hibition of agricultural productions and imple-
ments, stock, &C., &c, at this Fair ever pre-
scented before the people ofthis State. Every
farmer who can be present, should by all
means avail himself ofthe opportunity Of wit
Messing what those in the same occupation are
doing for agriculture. And not only farmers,
but citizens generally from every part of the
State, will be in in attendance at this Fair,

ftT The editor of the Henderson Know
Nothing organ" is none other than Stephen L.
Kenyon, recently of this city and late assistant
editor of the Evansville Journal. Last sum-
mer Stephen was violent anti Nebraska man
rather more SO than his senior associate
He was the especial trumpeter of Maj A. l..
Robinson the bitterest abolitionist in Indiana.
Now that Stephen is the editor of Know No
thing paper in slave State, we should like to
know if his opinions have changed on the Ne
braSka question. Define your position
Stephen Enquirer
In justice to Mr.. Kenyon we will say, that
nearly every anti-Nebraska Bill article writ
ten for this paper, was from our own pen, so
that if any violence of opinion may have at
tached to them, the responsibility is ours and
ours alone 1t is to be presumed, that having
established the policy of the paper on this as on
no one writing for our columns, no matter
what his individual opinions, would oppose
this policy. Mr.. Kenyon was never a trum-
peter of any abolitionist nor of any abolitionist
principles, nor can any man point out in the
Evansville Journal even so much as line,
from the time it has been under our control
exhibiting the slightest sympathy for abolition-
ism. There is certainly nothing in Mr.. Ken
yon's past history or sentiments which would
unfit him for editing Southern paper. We
think Henderson has been exceedingly fortu-
nate in securing him as a citizen, and more es
pecially as public citizen, Of that place. He
will do his duty to his party and to the com
munity.

OF Baymiller, of the Madison Banher, has
been presented with "self-sharpener." We
don't know precisely what kind of machine
that is, but presume something Of the kind is
very generally needed by the editorial frater-
nifty about these times. Baymiller is sharp
enough at present. When he uses the self
sharpener," we shall expect to see him bring
down his editorial neighbors tc the nearest
affinity to nothings within Yankee whiting
capacity.

Nothing further was done at the meeting,
but to hear the report of the old Directory,
which we will publish in a few days.
The reelection of the Old Directors, shows
the estimate placed upon their labors by those
best acquainted with them. They had lately
been maliciously attacked by scurrilous sheet
in this city, in view of the approaching cleo
ton, and serious effort made by certain par
ties to injure them in public opinion, and es-
pecially in the opinion of the stockholders,
that change might be affected. But no
better evidence need be offered Of the utter
insignifcance of these efforts, orof their source
and of the estimation in which the labors of
these Directors are held by those most inter
ested, than the fact, that they were reelected
by almost an unanimous vote-with the ex-
ception of two members in which a change
was made.
At meeting Of the Directors held last night
Mr.. Griswold was reelected President, and
the other officers also reelected to their res
pective positions.
