The American Organ, Cincinnati Times,
and other Know Nothing papers, are making
great ado because the First Assistant Post
master General asked Mr.. Puryear, q K. n.
member Congress, whether certain gen.
tleman recommended for the office of postmas-
ter was a Know Nothing? SIS it possible, .
asked the innocent Peryear, "that his being q
Know Nothing would be an objection" to
which the First Assistant replied, that it would.
For this avowal, the Times and the Organ de-
nounce the Port-office Department as proscrip-
tive, and proceed to shed saucers full of briny
tears over the fate of the prescribed "Ameri-
cans."- State Sentinel.
The Sentinel mistakes the case. Mr. Pur-
year further asked the dispenser of Offices. ifa
Know Nothing and . foreign Roman Catholic
applied for an office, which he would give it to.
He replied to the foreign Roman Catholic.
This is what the Times and Organ are grum-
bling about. 1t is too old matter that no
member of the American party can hold an Of
fee under this Administration to cause any
surprise now.

Git is now conceded on all hands, and
deeply deplored by all true Christians, that
the year 1855 was one of unprecedented disas-
ter to the real interests of the Protestant
Church, both in New Albany and throughout
our whole country Nel0 albany Ledger.
And what wonder? During the year 1856,
and during all the latter part of 1854, Protest
ant ministers and Protestant churches and the
Protestant religion were the subjects of the
most virulent attacks Of the anti-American
party. From one end of this State at least,
to the other, ministers of the Gospel were
treated as so many knaves and scoundrels par
ticularly those of the Methodist church. No
language was thought too rascally to heap up
on their heads-no ideas OF wickedness too
dark to connect with them. They were
abused and villifed and slandered by the anti
American editors and by anti-American ora
tors, not one of whom were fit in moral char
acter to wipe the dust from the feet of their
victims. The churches were abused for sup
porting such ministers, and the religion was
sneered at for maintaining such churches.
And now these anti-American and anti-Pro-
testant-church rascals, are wondering at the
decline of religion in their midst We doubt
whether there has been any such marked de-
cline, but if it is true, then the influence of
these infamous writers and speakers is greater
than we had imagined. But if there is any
sincerity in their protested regrets at this de-
cline in Protestant Religion, let them be COM
forted by the reflection, that if their influence
has been as powerful in another direction the
Catholic church, which they have been so zeal
ously counting, has gained in proportion to the
decline of Professionalism.

article of the Cincinnati Enquirer upon Gov.
Wright as "slanderous and false" The edi-
tors of the Cincinnati sheet receive the rebuke
IN meek submissive silence; conscious that
they went off at half-cock that time, but have
not the manliness to retract.- Madison Cour.
If the Enquirer spoke out honestly in its
condemnation of Gov. Wright, wherein would
consist the nanliness of retracting because
derous and false?" We presume the Enquirer
has not retracted simply because it has moth
ing to retract. But the Courier wishes it to
show madness by retracting anyhow.

We are indebted to the Madison Courier for
the following abstract of an article in the n.
York Railroad Journal, relative to our rail
road. The article had entirely escaped our
notice, but now our attention has been called
toit we shall avail ourselves further gifts facts
and figures
From an elaborate article in late number of
the New York Railroad Journal, we compile
the following facts in reference to the cost and
present condition of the above road. This road
is now completed and in good running order
from Evansville to Terre Haute, distance of
100 miles; trayersing through its entire length
one of the most fertile and productive belts of
country in the State. Fromthe general account
of the company it is shown that the road has
been built upon a substantial stock basis, sub
scribed and paid, and that the cost has been
less per mile than that of any road OF the same
class in the State. 1t will be observed that
the whole funded debt of the company, con-
sisting Of per cent. first mortgage bonds, is
equal to exactly $4,000 per mile. The I'M
funded Indebtedness is shown to be $218, 1853
So, while their assets, consisting of seven per
cent bonds, unsold county bonds, and other
property convertible at pleasure, and appllca-
BILE to the above Indebtedness, is over $780,
OO0; thus leaving the road with a clean sheet,
and in condition to apply all its nett earnings
to interest upon bonds and dividends to stock
holders.

The Concert Tonight.

We announced yesterday, that some of our
last musicians, both ladies' and gentlemen,
would give Concert, for the Benefit of the
Poor, this evening. OF course we had intend
ed saying best musicians. They are the first
as we'll as the last musicians in our midst, and
possess every qualification for giving first rate
Concert. Our people will have a rich treat
this evening. We have been assured by one
who knows that it will be by far the best con-
cert ever given in this city by our ameteur
performers. They have the talent and the
practice, and we have an opportunity OF know
ing, that the programme lor the occasion is
most an excellent selection of music. We
therefore do trust that this voluntary Concert
for the benefit of the Poor, will be largely pat
ronlzed. 1t will be burning shame if Cres-
cent Hall is not crowded this evening. We
may here state that while there are many ac-
tually suffering poor in our midst, there is no
fund at present for their relief. Those connect
ed with the old reliefas &C alton have exhausted
the means Of their societies, and in many
cases individuals have been liberal in advanc-
ing money, &C. for the alienation of the suf-
ferings of the poor. This Concert, if well
patronized, will afford fund for the relief Of
much distress. Is there citizen who will
withhold his mite or his mighty halfdollar?
Let all who can go, attend the Concert, and
they will get the worth of their money, and at
the same time have the satisfaction of know
ing, they have contributed that much to the
poor. And let those who cannot 60, at least buy
ticket. In fact, let there be general contrib
ution of half dollar per each charitable per
son to the poor of Evansville to-day. Tickets
can be purchased at the bookstores.

0FAt Vienna, every person who frequents
the Exchange is obliged to take ticket, for
which he pays a trifing sum; and on the 1st
of this month notice was given by the police
authorities, that in future, every ticket would,
in addition to the name and address, have the
religion gifts possessor inscribed on it. The
new regulation has excited extreme indigna-
ton among the Hebrew frequenters of the Ex-
change, and it will probably be felt when their
assistance is again required by the State.
