The solid men Of our city are at last, really
talking in earnest about new Hotel The
vacancy made by the late fire opens one of
the most eligible sites that could be selected
in the whole city for the purposes of Hotel.
The owners of the lots are, we understand,
all DESTROYS Of entering into the project, liber.
ally with their means, in preference to re-.
building in any other way. There can no
longer be doubt in the mind ola single
citizen, of the necessity of a capacious FIRST
class Hotel,in our city. Certainly there
could not be more useful or ornamental i'm.
provement. The project to be carried into
effect, speedily, and upon the magnificent
scale contemplated, is rather too much for
individual enterprise to grappls with, hence
unanimty of feeling with an earnest sssoci.
ated effort will be necessary to successful
result. There should be no difference OF
opinion about this matter, and trifling OBJ.
Ijections should be at once merged in the
necessity and Importance of the undertaking.
There is perhaps no city in the West of the
size Of Evansville, that has not provided
itself with sufficient Hotel accommodations
among the earliest of its improvements.
Our present Hotels are good and well kept
SO far as they 60, but they do not supply the
demand for good rooms, for the more fashion.
able travelling public, family and lady
boarders, sc. &c. We would suggest that a
meeting of the interested citizens and caPa.
talists be held at once to consult in reference
to the location now in question before it is
otherwise disposed Of.

We learn that coal mining has been com.

appearance Of succees, by Mr.. VIM. Kers-

man was preparing to open some mines in
Kentucky; but becoming thoroughly convin-
ced, from an acquaintance with the Ohio
coal deposits, that mining could be more sue
cessfulIy prosecuted near Evansville, be re-
solved to make an experiment. After max
ing some preliminary researches, he com.
menced in good earnest the necessary exca.
vations, buildings, railroad, &C., and on sink
ing to depth Of 268 feet, rithin one foot Of
rhere he erpecfed, an excellent vein Of steam
and CRATE coal was struck of over four fee. in
thickness. On Saturday. the 7,h ult., the
first fruits of the undertaking, some 90 carts
laden with the coal brought from this mine
were exhibited in Evansville, accompanied
by procession of the miners who bad been
engaged in the work.
We congratulate Mr.. Kersteman on the
successful termination Of his labors, and
those wiseacres who shook their heads and
shrugged their shoulders 10 unbelief, before
success had vindicated the correctness Of the
convictions of their more intelligent and
enterprising neighbor. To the cilizens oil

DrscovERY OF A New PEOPLE IN Souri,
AMERrcA.-A correspondent of the New Or.
leans Picay,sne states that during the late
trip of the U. 8. Sloop OF war, Decatur, thro'
the straits Of Magellan. DR.. Bsinbridge and
other officers obtained leave Of absence fol
a few days, during q calm, and were landed
at Tere del Fuego. They then ascended a
mount ain to the height of $500 feet, when
they crme upon plain Of surprising rich.
ness and beauty. fertile fields, the greatest
variety of fruit trees in full bearing, and
signs Of civilization and refinement. Their
appearance astonished the inhabitants, who
however, did not treat them unfriendly. The
men all range from 6 to 81 feet in height
well proportioned, very athletic. and traigh'
as arrows. The women were among the
most perfect models of beauty ever formed
averaging FIVE feet high. very plump. with
small feet and hands, and jet black eyes.
The writer adds:
Their teachers of religion speak the Latin

ple-which according to their description, as
compared to the one now existing, which we
saw, must have been 1900 feet square, and
over l,l0o feet high, built of the purest pan.

The officers remained two weeks with these
strange people, and obtained from them q
specimen Of painting on porcelain over 5000
years old. The men, women and children
number about 3 900. and when the children
multiply too fast they are sacrificed by the
priests. They live in huts and cottages
each one by himself, avoiding company and
discourse, employing all their time in con.
temptation and their religious duties.

with q party that his friends could not &C.

went there went Jack, and when the Marsha &
sat down Jack did the same, always taking
the post of honor. The day after the ball
Jack called on his old acquaintance Mr.. Ma.

little conversatiop in the following manner:
