Sharp Practice by A sChOOlmarm.


The JOhnstovn Pa. Tribune has 'leltcr
found BY ehsnbermaid, supposed TO have
been penned by young Miss at boarding
school. in a neighbOring State" One part Of
it is too good to lose.
Il must tell you about an affair Of Emms
Halls, that happened last Saturday. A young
man who had been paying some attention to
her had agreed 70 come and pass of for her
cousin, aad take her out carriage riding, under
the Prstence that be was taking her 10 bis
fathers few miles out in the country. Bat
his father does not live within hundred miles
of this.
"Well, he came according to appointment
introduced himself as Emma's cousin, and
asked to take her home TO spend the afternoon.
Miss Waldron said she had not the slightest
objection, asked how far it was, and in what
direction, and told Emma TO get ready to co.
But when Emma was dressed and ready to
start, Miss Waldron also came down ready
dressed, and said that as their carriage was
large enough for three, che would go along
with them part Of the way, and stop at a
friends who lived a short distance from the
uncle that Emma was going to see, and they
might stop for her when they came back in the
evening. OF course they could do no better
than tell her they would be glad 70 have her
60 with them. although they would have dull
time with her along. But they thought they
could make up for it by having nice social
ride after Miss Waldron stoppe al her friends.
So off they started in fine spirits. and when
they got three or four miles, they began to ex-
pect that every house they came to would be
the one that Miss WaldrOn would stop at, But
she didn't stop at any. Finally, when they
had gone some FIVE or six miles. Miss WaldrOn
said she must have passed the house BY mis-
take, for they had certainly travelled twice as
far as il Nas from town. But, since they had
passed il she would not trouble them 10 turn
back with her but would go on with Emma to
her uncle's and stop just minute at her friends
as they came back. There was what you nigh
call a fix, and En-. and her beau could do
driving on didn't drive their trouble away.
At last when they had gone eight or ten miles,
he said that the road muse have been changed
in some way for he had undoubtedly gone a.
stray, and as they had gone so far, and it was
drawing late. they would not have time to find
the right way. So they came back to town
and when Miss Waldson got out Of the carri
age, she told Ems beau that when he ascer
tanned how the road had been changed, sh
: would be very happy to go along with Emm
any Saturday to spend an afternoon at he
uncle's. Since that we have seen nothing o
Ems cuOsin, and it will be long time befOr'

IL The German Band was engaged to

~ The German Band was engaged to
be at the Depot last evening at 81 O'Clock,
to lend their services in welcoming the vol
unteers. Instead of volunteering their SER
vices free like men, they at first asked three
dollars each, making eighteen dollars for half
an hours music! They were finally secured
at one dollar and half each. They broke
their engagement and did not go near the
depot, with the exception of their leader.
Those interested in welcoming the volun-
teer5 would not for fifty dollars have missed
having the band. We hope that until their
conduct is explained this band will not be
employed on any occasion in Evansville:

The Louisville Journal closes an able lead
er on the question of Parties and their
Principles with the following truthful re.
mark:
awe ask, then, what are Democratic prin-
ciples! Isn't it amusing, gerry amusing, to
hear the Democratic organs denouncing the
American party as party of unknown prin-

telligence in the nation know more of the
American party's distinctive principles in
one minute than the whole Democratic pap
ty will ever know OF its own principles in all
it's life!

State Mass Meeting of the peop,e

We are requested by a large number OF
persons from different portions of the State
to give notice that there will be a Mass
Meeting Of the anti Nebraska voters of Tndi.
ana, and such others as may sympathze
with them, heldin the city OF Indianapolis,
on the 18th of July, 1855, to consider the
state of public affairs, and for more tho
rough organization of the Republican or
Peoples Party.
We understand call is in circulation for
signatures, and will be published in a few
days. A the time, however, is short, it is
earnestly desired that all ant. Nebraska
papers Of the State give notice Immediately
that such a meeting is to be held.
State Journal.
The above call needs little explanation.
ga large number of persons" speaking to the
editor of a paper, is very indefinite way of
making call. 1t is not very good authority
for call to say the least of it, especially
when that editor belongs to but 1oing OF
the Republican party, and that wing is free
soilism. But aside from this, we see nothing
to gain by such convention. A con-
vention of the Know Nothings or American
party of Indiana just at this time, might be
of beneft--but until they agree to agree, we
do not see much use of a convention of the
Republican party. If the Republican con-
vention should adopt platform for the State
making the restoration of the Missouri Com
promise prominent feature, of course all
Know Nothings not in direct mutiny, would
oppose them, because they have a national
platform of their own now, stopping all fur
Their agitation of the slavery question. And
if they should adopt the national platform
idea of course they would be cut by Free
sellers. So we think, on the whole, that
they had better keep quiet till things get to

ITThe editor of the Rockport June Bug.
If he alludes to us in a certain editorial, in
which he says in answer to polite note to
an Evansville editor requesting some ma
terials for his paper, he received a very in.
sulting reply, is informed that we sent him
no reply at all. In polite terms we assured
the bearer of the note that we had not thesma-
terials, or we should be pleased to accommo-
date him, at the same time telling him where
he probably might obtain them. We should
not trouble ourselves with making this cor.
rec ton, only that having been so accom-
modating as to often submit to imposi-
tons, we feel rather sensitive on being
called unaccomodating. There is scarcely
an Office within fifty miles of Evansville that
has not some time or another been accommo-
dated by US.

Our citizens were pleased to understand
yesterday morning by telegraph dispatch,
that the Evansville Guards might be expect
ed in the evening. A large crowd assembled
at the depot to meet the returning boys, but
the heavy rain just before the hour prevented
some little preliminary arrangements IN the
way of a welcome from being carried out
However, the Evansville Guard was received
with enthusiasm. They looked rough and
hearty, but seemed glad to get home once
more, and we are sure their fellow citizens
were just about as glad to see them. No
one had been injured or was sick, but there
is no use saying they led rough life during
their nine days absence. We can say in
the name of those left behind, that Evansville
feels grateful to the Evansville Guard, for
the promptness with which they responded
to the cali made upon this city.
Last Wednesday the Guard arrested
eighteen of the ringleaders of the Clay coun-
ty outrages. They were arrested upon Aft
davits obtained with the greatest difficulty.
the witnesses fearing for long time to give
their evidence. A constable was forced into
serving the process, and these men were
arrested at different points over the county
by the constable and squads of our men,
They were taken before Justice in the same
county, who showed an excellent feeling
The whole eighteen were held to bail on the
two charges for which the principal ones
had been arrested, arson and malicious tres
pass at $4,000 on each charge. No difficulty
was experienced in getting bail. The very
men who had pretended to be the most bitter
against the mobocratic acts, stepped forward,
justified the acts they had before condemned
and profered the ball. During the day and
till night, our men were surrounded by the
Regulators, who are described as almost
without exception large brawney men. Two
lawyers were with them, Hanna and Os-
borne who openly justified the outrages.
These Regulators have receded from their
agreement with the Trustees, for some trivial
reason, SO that with the exception of the re-
pairs and arrests, things are pretty much as
they were. We should not be surprised to
hear any time OF further outrages by these
men similar to those lately enacted.
Our assistant will give the readers of the
Journal full particulars of things in connec-
ton with the excursion, made up from his
notes, in day or two.
