Evansville Commercial College.

The next session of this excellent and pop
ular Commercial Institution will open ONION
day, September 1st, and as we presume with
an unusual full list of pupils. Young gentle
men can, however, enter the College at any
time, as each pupil is taught separately. There
is no similar college in the west where young
men can obtain more thorough proficiency in
Commercial education, knowledge of Book
Keeping in all its details, &C., than in this
College. Mr. Benin, the Principal, is an old
teacher, thoroughly experienced in his busi-
ness, and devotes his whole time to his pu-
pills instead of turning them over to indolent
and uninterested assistants, as is too often the
case at other Commercial Colleges. There are
scores of young men now employed in count
ing rooms, and many merchants at the heads
of business houses, who are practical testimo-
malls to the superiority of Dir. Behm's system
of instruction and to his own merits as a teach
er. We commend this Institution to the at
tention Of those who wish to obtain thorough
and practical knowledge Of Book Keeping.
Mr. Behm's system is pre-eminently practi-
cal one. He does not teach from books, but he
opens and conducts business with each pupil
as it is done in business houses of diff
ferent kinds--thus qualifying the pupil
when he obtains his Diploma, to step into the
counting room, and assume its practical duties
1t is useless to enlarge upon the value of &
thorough knowledge of Book Keeping Every
young man who intends engaging in active
business, will find this knowledge if not in
dispensible at least of high importance-whilt
to many young men it will open what has be
come Profession, with sure means of OBJ
tanning livelihood, and in iiselfa stepping
stone to higher position IN the mercantile
world.
Mr.. Benin has just issued his Annual Gaia
logue, containing lists of his pupils at present
and of those who have graduated at his insti
tuition, with much useful information to thos
who are considering the subject of enterin!
upon Commercial course. Copies of this
catalogue can be obtained by addressing Mr.
Benin.

Illinois Correspondence.
MOUNT CARMEL, H., Aug. %, Is


DEAR SAKAERs have been through the
counties of White, Edwards, Lawrence, Rich
land, and part Of Clay and Wabash, in this
State, and find with uniegned qualification
more numerous than from report was led
to believe they were. They are organized into
clubs, and have speeches and pole raisings in
every town, and even at many cross roads,
we do not find that bitterness Of feeling ex-
listing between these two parties here that Ee
do ia Indiana. The discussions are character
lied by courteous and respectful speeches
good sense and reason are substituted for Will
| fication and abuse.
The Fremonters occasionally stir up their
brethren, call meeting and give the Old Lii
ners particular thunder though in respect
| ful and digniGed manner. At one Of these
meetings held at the Court House here last
night. while Nm. Harrow Esq, of Lawrence
county, was pouring he, shot" into the Old
Line ranks some Gnprineipled scamp, too mean
and cowardly to belong to any party, threw an
egg in at the door, and struck the speaker in
the face, net doing serious damage, farther than
calling into requisition his pocket handker-
chief and soiLng his vest and coat slightly
Such an act is too low in the scale of mean
ness fer comment 1t was not imputed to any
party, but was most probably done through
some personal ill-leehng. Mr.. Harrow took
the matter very ,coolIy, simply remarking.
that fellow is a deEelish good thrower-but
I'll give fifty dollars TO know who it was p" Il
| is well for the fellow that be was not known.
The speaker is a lawyer by profession, and a
man of ability, but think supporting a dam
lgeEeus Presidential ticket. About midnight,
some wags raised a Fremont pole, about 80
feet high with cross on the top, and had
quite an odd looking flag, with various in
soriPtions and devices; large black weolly
horse in the centre. 1t amused many and was
the subject eferiticism during the day.
| a splendid flag floats in the breeze, near the
Court House, With Fillmore and Donelson in
scfibed thereon. The Old Liners have made
two sor three druitleSs attempts tie raise pole
in town, hnt up to this time have failed, for
SO soon as they get it twothirds up, the
props fail and the pole comes down with a
crash, breaking into dozen pieces.
the crops are much better thancould be ex-
peGted considering the dry season. ! noticed
several fields ofcorn and oats destroyed by
hail, about three or four weeks age, on the
bread from Albion to 0lney;; oats literally
ibeaten into the ground and utterly lest the
corn blades torn into shreds, and will not b.

in many places the leaves and small twigs
being beaten off Fortunately, it was only .
few miles in length and 800 to 500 yards il
width.
