1t is among the gratifying evidences of Amer
lean enterprise that we notice the several Com
mercial Colleges, that are fast springing up in
the United States, and especially in the west.
Commercial science is, in this country, zone OF
vast magnitude. 1t pervades all avocations,
and the day has arrived when the merchant
and trader who would succeed in business
should be educated in the theory of trades
and knowied % ofthe rules and laws gov
erning commercial transactions. 1t requires
but little time to master the theory, when
its practical operation in the every day affairs
of life will make the successful business man.
We have noticed several of these institutions
lately but now present the Evansville Com
merclal College. under the management of j.

GTThe agent of the Rochester Nursery re-
turned some little time back to this city, with
an immense quantity of choice fruit trees, or
dered by citizens of Evansville and vicinity.
In few years we shall notice the effect of
this, in the increased quantities Of fruit in this
neighborhood, and its great superiority. We
are glad to notice this disposition on the part
of our citizens to raise good fruits. Good
fruit always commands high price, while the
bad is scarcely worth the trouble of bringing

Gov. Wright's wife Dead.

The State Journal of Monday says:
We were surprised and panied to learn on
Saturday night, that Gov. Wright's lady died,
some time during the day, at her old home in
Kentucky. She had never recovered from the
prostration of her confinement. To the Gov
ernor, and to her many friends in this city,
this is sad bereavement. She was lady Of
many virtues, and had endeared herself to a
large circle of friends here by her amiability
and goodness of heart.
The Republican of the same date says:
Mrs. Harriet B. Wright consort of the Gov
ernor, died last Saturday at her home in Wood
ford county, KY, of sickness resulting from
confinement some weeks ago. The sad intel
ligence sent thrill of sorrow through the
whole community, and especially her personal
friends Mrs. Wright, during her short resi-
dence in Indiana, had made large number OF
friends by her lady-like disposition and kind
ness of heart ssal
The Governor left for the scene of sorrow
on Sunday, on an extra train, as We are in
formed. u
