Hall, on Saturday evening, March 1-th. and
we can heartily join in the opinion of MANY Of
our ci,izens III saying that it was the STAR
CONCERT tia. was ever given in Richmond
Mr.. Cushman. r0cahst, is most excellent;
and his patriotic song of Tie Red. White and
BlEe was beautiful, and Is ALWAYS sure to
arouse the patriotic feelings of an American
audience. The songs OF JaD.ie's on tie .Stor-
ny Sea, and haty Darling. were given with
an effect thas we never before Witnessed in
any concert room. The last named song
caused a number III the audience 10 shed tea $
The song OF .Shoald Like to Marry was real
y very amusing. and most especially when
the old maid wanted a man ot any kind In
recI-atations and limitations. he is equal to the
best; and, we think, that IN his delineations
OF HURRAH FOR 'LEcrIoSs and MATTER OF
FACT MAN. be cannot be equa!ed. Taken as
3 whole, II was au unequalled performance
We understand that i is Mr.. CuShman's in
tenon to visit the di.iegen. towns adjoining US
and we would call attention OF the press, and
also TO the citizens, by saying tha. he is a gen
tlenlsn who is truly worthy OF their patronage.
His songs and reci;a:ions hav, good morals a.
tache OF them. and are really worth witness
ing. We shall be pleased 70 hear Mr.. Cush-
man a,sin; and III saying this, we bu, echo
the sentiment OF our citizens generally.

FALL TURNIPs Now is the time to pre-
pare for. crop of tnrnips. Favorable show
ers are frequent, and if the ground is proper
ly prepared, a large amount of valuable food
for farm stock can be grown at small COST
I'urnips too, are among the best vegetables
for family use. In fattening hogs or cattle a
feed or two of turnips daily will be found
highly beneficial. Corn when fed alone TO
fatteping animals, is too concentrated and
heating, but with few pounds of turnips fed
to each animal morning and night, will
greatly promote their health and increase
the tendency, to fatten. place can be
found in almost every garden, where early
vegetables have matured, to sow an ounce or
two of turnip seed. Upon the farm when
the early potatoes have been dug, or when
wheat or oats have been harvested, if the
land be in good condition, crop of turnips
can be grown to advantage. The common
White Fiat Dutch and the Fiat Purple Top
varieties OF the turnip are the best suited TO
our climate. A thimble full of seed to the
square rod, or at the rate of one pound to
the acre, is the proper quantity Of seed to be
gown. TO insure a good crop the seeding
should not be delayed later than the 10Th or
10th of August.
We would in this connection inform the
members OF the Vanderburgh Horticultural
Society. that the Executive Committee have
on hand large variety of Turnip seed just
received from the Patent Office, and they
can supply themselves by calling at the store

The Louisville Journal uses the following
emphatic language. Read it:
No man however. violently and furiously
be may hate the American name and the
American race, dares stand forth.in this COM
muniiy and. del berately deny the notorious
fact that not a weapon had been drawn or a
drop of blood split in any SECTION OF the city
up TO the time, when Irish anu GeEmap guns
were fred from Irish and German windows
and doors aud crannies and loppholes. a, Until
the innocent blood OF American citizens, shed
by foreign desperadoes in their. secret lairs,
began TO cry to their countrymen from the
ground, men were everywhe e. congratulate
ing each other that there would be no dis
turbance of athe peace and no interference
with any class OF persons in the exercise OF
their rights
If guns had been fred from only one house
or from only two or three houses in a single
section of the city, we might have deemed ii
possible that the whole GU break was but the
result OF some sudden and mysterious exas
peration. But when we consider that there
was nothing in particular to create exasper-
ton, that the same bloody system of action
was carried out by the foreign born. people
wherever they bad the streng Of numbers,
and that the Quantity of arms and ammuni-
ton in their possession was at least fifteen
or twenty times as great as il had ever been
before, there cannot be, even if we Disregard
all the other overwhelming evidence to the
same effect, the shadow of doubt that the
horrible deeds Of murder were deliberately
planned and de ibera'ey executed.
