FILLMORE ELECTORAL TICKET
Fillmore and POLICY ;

The Vincennes Gazette is now advocating
the cause of Fremont. We shall not quarrel
with it on this account, but hope that it
may induce every man in the District
not totally welded to the Old Line party, yet
who cannot be persuaded to give his vote for
Fillmore, to exert his influence in some man
ner against the Old Line party and its Office
grasping leaders. But the Gazette offers as
its great reason for changing its policy, not that
the opinions of its editors have changed par
ticle as to the patriotism Of supporting MIR.
Fillmore, or as to the superior worth Of the
man and his principles over those by which
he is opposed-but that there is no possible
hope OF carrying the State for Fillmore. We
would ask the Gazette how much stronger
was that hope when the name of Fillmore
was placed at the head of its columns-and
when the Gazette lent an earnest voice in his
behalf even up to few days ago? Are the
principles of the American party any less cor
rect, its objects any less national and patriot
ic, than when they received the GazetteS sup
port Or are the principles of the Republi-
can party any less sectional, or any different
from what they were three weeks ago? II
the Gazette was supporting right and justice,
and that which it begged all patriots to uphold
and sustain, when FiIlmore's name was at its
head. can mere temporary policy excuse OPP
position to that which it then supported, OF
the resignation of patriots duty? 1t is not
for the patriot or the good citizen to temporize
with error and wrong when the plain path Of
rights before him. We believe we are right
in supporting Fillmore--that his election will
be to the advancement Of the best interests Of
the country and the welfare of the people, and
perhaps necessary for the very security of the
Union itself Is this any different opinion
from that held by the Gazette? If not, are
we right in standing by a position founded
upon honest convictions and which we believe
it the patriots duty to mantain--or is the
Gazette right in swapping of honest convic.
tons and patriotic duty to temporize with
what at the best is but doubtful policyP
We do not think for moment that there is
any prospect of Fillmore carrying Indiana
But we do know there are thousands in the
State who desire, conscientiously and as pa
triots, to cast their votes for him, and the
great majority Of whom, if they have not the
privilege of doing this, will not vote at all
We feel too, that our Jealous and hard working
friends in Kentucky, who are fighting hand tc
hand and breast to breast with their enemies
for Fillmore, should know that these thous.
ands in Indiana, if they cannot aid Fillmore
materially by their votes, are looking with
beating hearts at the battle raging around
them-that the Fillmore men here are yet or
gained, and will cast their votes for the man
ofther choice--that as their chieftain's motto
is, he would rather be right than Pres.
ident, so they would rather fight in the right
than in the wrong to elect their President.

The annual catalogue of this institution has
just been published, showing marked in
crease in the number of students aud giving
US renewed confidence in its perpetuity. Mr..
Benin has labored faithfully to build up in our
midst q commercial school of the highest
character. and We are glad to know that he
has succeeded much better than he had any
reason to expect. We have at different times
given our opinion of the advantage of a COM
mercial education. No young man, no matter
what his occupation, should be ignorant Of
book keeping. 1t lis capital to any one, but
especially to young men just starting out in
life, and to all such we address ourselves. To
acquire such knowledge it is not necessary to
leave Evansville Mr.. Benin has established
as good College in this city, as can be
found in the West, and all his old students
bear testimony to bis faithfulness and ability
We have noticed this institution because it is
8 home school, and as such is entitled not only
to our recommendation, but to the patronage
of business men. The Fall session begins on
the first of September, and continues for ten
months. Students can, however, enter at any
time, as Mr. Benin teaches his pupils separate
ly, giving all an opportunity Of finishing the
course as soon as they may wish. Further
information can be obtained by addressing
Mr.. Benin, at this place.

Postmaster at Fewhurg 0usted A Post ONCE
bought for Barrel Of Whisky.

Postmaster at Eewburg 0usted A Post ONCE
bought for Barrel Of Whisky.
The only times we ever hear from our hon.
orable and talented Representative in Congress,
Smith Miller, is when squeak comes from
some town in the District, and the mouse in
the shape of q new Postmaster comes forth
from the political labors of our mountain Rep
resentahve Miller is always ready to with
draw his attention from momentous matters
Of national concern, to attend to the affairs of
some little crossroads or village Post Office.
He has an idea that he is working for his Dis
trict, and lending valuable aid and comfort to
his party, when he labors to Gust Shocks, who
was seen to shake hands with live Know
Nothing, and put in his place Jasack, the stall
lion keeper, who is a good Democrat-al-
though the former had faithfully performed
his duty, and the latter scarcely knows his al
phabet. We have already had occasion to no.
tice number of these changes affected by
Miller, in every one of which, the Department
was injured and the interests of communities
damaged. But Miller is still at work.
| We have just heard of the removal of Squire
Robertson from the Post Office at Newburg,
under peculiar circumstances This gentle
man has made an excellent officer, and given
full satisfaction to men of all parties. No COM
plant was or could be made of him as an Off
Ger. yet some months ago the citizens of New
burg as well as himselfwere astonished to hear
that he had been removed, and Mr.. Simeon
Lamastus, the keeper ola GROCERY, and as ut
terly unfit for Postmaster as his hole
would have been for the Post Office, was ap-
poin ted in his place. Citizens of both parties
were indignant, and the Democrats themselves
! got up petition to send to Miller, against the
change. Mr. Lamastus heard of this petition,
saw those getting it up and stated to them
that if they would not send it, ne would write
to the Department declining the appointment.
Thus Robertson continued in the Post Office,
and the subject was considered entirely settled
until few days ago, when Robertson was
again removed, and the identical Simeon La
mastus appointed in his place 1t is due
him to say, that he is not now a retailer ofl-
quor, but sells it by the quantity treating his
friends like gentleman. Smith Miller has
in this matter not only insulted the communi-
ty, but exhibited a contempt for his own par
ty, whom he k11eaO did not desire this change.
But here lisa fact bearing on the appointment
Just before Miller went to Washington the
last time, he visited Newburg and stopped a
short time with Lamastus Soon after his de-
parture home, barrel Of a0hiskey, from La
mantus' establishment, followed our worthy
Representative! Now we should like to know
whether that was good whisky? 1t it aoas a
good article, and he didn't pay for it-why,
the Democracy and the people of Newburg
generally may consider themselves sold, or the
Post Office bought, far a barrel of red eye
that's all. Our whole account is a correct re-
port as told US.

TOBACCO FROM GREEN RIVER IN FLATBoATs.
River tobacco has been brought out in fat
boats. This is partly owing to continued low
water, and partly to the fact, that by this
means of transportation the freights are ma
from all parts of Green River, carrying each
an average load of twenty hogsheads. The
men who own these flats, are hard working
boatmen, who buy their groceries &c. in EV-
ansville, and occasionally take back small lots
of dry goods and groceries, purchased here by
Green river merchants. Some idea can be
formed Of the nature of the business, from the
fact that the boats are towed by hand along
the Kentucky shore to the mouth of Green
river and from there to their places of des-
tination. The return trip is profitable, and
easy after leaving Green river.
At the close of the season, we intend to
furnish some statistics, as to the amount Of
tobacco shipped from this point the pass year,
and we expect to show, that more tobacco
passes through the hands Of our Commission
merchants, in one season than is landed at
any Ohio river town during the same time ex-
cepting Louisville. We only need the estab-
lshment of first class tobacco warehouse, to
throw Louisville behind us, in tweivemonth.
We have already alluded to this matter, and
we do so again hoping that some one will set
the ball in motion.

THE ARRIsoN VERDIoT,-Our readers were
appraised by telegraph in yesterday mornings
Journal, of the termination of this remarkable
trial The verdict of naanSlaughter, is an in
suit to the citizens of Cincinnati Arrison
was either guilty of the most deliberate and
malicious murder ever recorded in the annals
of crime, or he was innocent. We do not pre-
tend to say that the prisoner was guilty,
but we do say that if he was at all guilty, then
was his crime, murder in the first degree, and
no more manslaughter, than it was larceny
The statute says that manslaughter is the un-
lawful killing of another, without malice eth
upon sudden quarrel, or unintentionally -
But the facts in this case show that Arrison
was killed by machine, which must have been
in preparation for weeks; that it was sent to
the deceased, for the purpose of taking his life,
that not only Allison but his wife were the
victims, and now a sworn jury, of Cincinnati
ans have convicted I rrison of crime, of which
in contemplation Of law malice is not an ingre-
dent The instructions of the Judge were as
little regarded as though he had delivered his
charge to the Winds Whether Arrison will
obtain another trial, or abide this verdict and
be imprisoned ten years, we are not advised.
He is now to be put upon trial for the murder
of Mrs. Allison.

An unfortunate Nomination.

Mr.. w. G. Moreau was unanimously nomi-
mated Elector for this District by the Old Line
State Convention. Mr.. Moreau with praise
worthy zeal at once commenced the canvass,
but unfortunately for the interests of these
who nominated him, he saw fit to advocate on
the stump doctrines directly opposed to those
OF Old Lineism. In fact he came out a Repub
lican, and is now making Old Lineism sweat.
Our worthy contemporary has since sought to
annihilate him, but Mr.. Moreau still continues
on the stump as Democratic Elector, making
Republican speeches! The Rockport Demo-
crat is also very bitter against him, and thinks
its Old Line contemporaries are giving him too
much consequence by abusing him-that "he's
not worth the ammunition, brother editors
Now here is what the Rockport Democrat
said of Mr.. Moreau, in abiding to his nomIna-
ton as Elector, last January:
"Mr. Moreau deserves the confidence and
approval of all Democrats, for the persevering
manner in which he endeavored to carry out
the wishes of the Spencer Democracy. as mani
tested in their resolutions at the late mass
meeting,"o&c.
ave congratulate the Democracy in secur-
found in the person of Mr. NJ We take
great pleasure in recommending him to the
citizens of Pike, as high toned honorable
gentleman, reliable lawyer. and withal a TRUE
DEMocRAT."

The Rockport Democrat has commenced
abusing Veatch with hearty good will quite
refreshing. 1t villifed Mr.. Veatch before the
Princeton meeting for the purpose of fright

fusing him the nomination. Hicks devoted

process, and the consequence was his victim

ballot The effects OF his present attacks will
doubtless be equally crushing. Hicks, like
Hall of the Enquirer, blackguards for pay
They have both been endeavoring to convince
the Democratic party lately, that its debt Of
gratitude to them can only be paid in fat off,
ces. Hicks demanded the office Of Auditor of
State, and Hall that of Secretary Of State
Hicks was told he couldn't come in, and Hall
wasn't even treated with respect. The party
at large evidently did not know them, or else
thought their services had done their oppo-
nents more good than their friends. But
Hicks goes home and tells his party that if he
cannot be Auditor of State, he must be Clerk
of Court in Spencer county. Hall, is assuring
his party here, Chat is the faction OF the party
owned by Gavitt,) that as he has been refused
the Secretaryship Of State, the Office of Sheriff
of Vanderburgh county is very justly due him.
We are inclined to support his claims. Ever
since he announced hmselfa candidate for the
nomination of his party, he has been compare
/ lively decent man. In fact, his paper has
scarcely been more BLACKBOARD than the usual
run of Old Line papers-and this is vast i'm
provement. Besides, he has had so much expe-
rience with Sheriffs, that he cannot well help
making good Sheriff himself, ifhe will only
try. But to secure these Offices Hicks and Hall
have commenced slandering and misrepresent-
ing Mr. Featch. We hope they will keep on
1t may recommend their own claims to the
Old Line party, but it will also recommend
Mr.. Veatch to the peopla.
