Confidence Man.

A few days since gentlemanly looking
individual, introduced himself to one Of our
city physicians, an Old Line Democrat, stat
ing that he had been requested to call upon
him (the Doctor) by Gov. Willard, and re-
quest letter, giving his views upon the ex-
pediency of called session Of the legisla-
ture. OF course, our friend was fattered by
His Excellency's condescension, and promised
to forward to the Governor, at an early day,
an elaborate epistle upon the subject. The
stranger proceeded to impress upon the Doc
tor the fact that he was friend of Wizards,
one of tn, Faithful, and thalhis visit to Ev-
ansville was to look after the interests of the
''party," and finally told the Doctor tina,
owing to some irregularity of the mails, his
remittances had failed to reach him. Oh
course the Doctor gave him all the change
he had about him, with the promise of more
if necessary.
The Democratic stranger put up at a Hotel
on Water street, and palrned himself off on
the proprietor, as Democrat who was "high-
ly national and eminently conservative
He called in at drug house on Main street
and after representing himself to be retired
druggist, travelling for pleasure, borrowed five
or ten dollars, promising to return it the next
day. ~
The other exploits of the Democratic
friend of Gov. Wizards" were numerous.
The last we saw of him he was too drunk to
navigate. His Democratic brethren acinowl-
edged themselves sold, and our friend the
Doctor is particularly sensitive upon the sub
ject of an extra session. The "Democrat
from Indianapolis" has probably returned to
his associate the Governor, with favorable
account CT the Whisky and Democracy Of
Evansville.

MURDER IN MONROE COUNTY, INpIkNA.-
From the Bloomington Republican, of last
week, we gather the particulars of the MUIR
der Of Bingham, in the vicinity of Bloom
ington, by band Of men styling themselves
Regulators" On Friday night, the Goth
ut, the Regulators" numbering about for
ty persons, proceeded to Bingham's house,
broke open the door, rushed in, in body,
and gathered him and took him into the
woods near by, and after tying him to a tree
commenced scourgfng him with rods and
biudgeon-, and knives were also used, as
gashes and bruises were upon his body and
head. They continued their scourging until
he sank down dying. when they fed. Bing-
ham was found by his friends shortly after
wards, but he expired in acouple of hours.
The Republican, says that Bingham's body
was horribly lacerated. Not spot that you
might rest the point of your finger, but wha,
was as black as beef's liver, from the head
down to the knee joints. Prints of the fng-
ers in black and blue were ON his neck, where
the ruffians had seized him in the onset, and
gashes from knifes and bludgeons were around
and on his head, penetrating the skull. The
verdict of the jury was that the deceased
came to his death by violence from the hand:
Of persons unknown Great excitement ex-
lists throughout Monroe county, and active
measures are being taSen to ferret out the
ASSISTANTS.

@- The City Council proceedings will be
found in another column. The present Board
are untiring in their efforts bo improve the
city. The tax of time and labor upon them
Individually is very great, and their only re-
ward is the thanks of their fellow-citizens.
The resolution of Mr.. Warren, it is hoped,
will be carried, and the streets leading to the
depot well lighted. The necessity for some
action upon this subject has existed for some
time; and should the resolution be'passed,
Lamasco will be lighted at such points as
the Board may deem proper. The public
school fund has been placed at the disposal
of the School Trustees, who are authorized
to erect additional school buildings, if neces-
sary. We understand that school building
corresponding to the present one, has been
planned and will be erected this fall, in the
lower part Of the city-thus affordiIig ample
accommodations for all the school children
within the city limits. We refer our readers
to Mr.. Fosters report upon the subject.

A division of the New School Presbyterian
Church has become inevitable. The slavery
agitation has created two parties whose antip-
athies are stronger than the bonds ofsect. The
Southern section have issued an address call
ing for a convention at Washington City on
he 9th August next, to form new Gener-
al Assembly-an assembly in which all dis
cussion of slavery is to be excluded. The
North claims to stand upon the original plat
orn of the Church, which they declare to
have been always anti slavery in its disci-
pine. The churches of St. Louis adhere to the
Northern section. Most of the Presbyterians.
of .he South have adhered to the old School
party, ard and the Southern Section in the
New School Assembly is very weak, embrace
ing vote of only one tenth of the entire as
sembly. The separation is to be lamented as
moral and political misfortune. If the evil
of slavery is ever to be removed by any So
cial and external influences, it must be accom-
plished by the gentle Christian pursuasions
of those whose interests and position enable
them to be calm and dispassionate judges oft
1t is by the fraternal influences of one mem
Der upon another ofthe same chur,h that it is
to be most surely and rapidly accomplished.
This power of the church has been destroyed
by the separation of the church into two
antagonistic sections. The political bonds
of the Union depend for their strength on
the social bonds that unite the people. Their
religious sympathies and associations are the
strongest cement of the social unity; and
every event that tends to sever these ties,
weakens the political bands of the Union and
is a public misfortune. The worst evil that
fanaticism has wrought, is the severance Of the
religious sects into Northern and Southern
sections. The Episcopal and Catholic church
es are the only ones that maintain their
integrity and fellowship North and South;
and by maintaining their national union,
they will gather strength at the expense OF
the other sects. Professionalism has lost q
material element of power by its unwise di-
vision. ffr. a

COMMERCIAL ExcLusIvENEss.-E England has
felt justified in waging war upon China, to
compel her to abandon her selfish and ex-
elusive commercial policy. Our own eminent
statesman and moralist, j. Q. Adams defend
ed the positions she assumed, as being con-
sonant with the international obligations and
rights Of every people inhabiting the globe.
If the principle be justifable in its applica
ton to China, it viii be proper to apply it to
Spain. There was no difference in the old
colonial policy of Spain and the Chinese pro-
hibitory system. Since the loss Of her CONT
hental colonies, Spain has modified that poll
ey in regard to the Islands she still retains.
But she has only modified it. Its most OBJ
jectionable features are still maintained. The
natural source from which the people of Gu
ba should draw their bread and meat, is down
the current of Mississippi and its tributaries.
Nature made the river for great high way
of trade between the rich cereal regions ofthe
temperate zone and the tropics, as well as for
main artery of drainage to the continent.
Spain, for the benefit of the people on a little
spot on another distant continent, attempts
to destroy the natural relations and natural
course of trade between the inhabitants of the
different regions on this continent. Her pro-
hibitions are as gross violation of natural
rights and international obligations as Chi
nese exclusiveness; and we have Just as good
right to resist her prohibitory policy as
England has to demand an open trade with
China. Cargoes of flour are now going from
Baltimore, Richmond, Charleston and Saw
annah to Cadiz, and the same -four, or other
for which ours is o substitutes being ship
ped from Cadiz to HAVANA and Matanzas

rule, are outraging the laws Of nature. TIL,
duties levied on a barrel of American -four il
Cuba, is ss,s5-which is equal to twice it
cost in New Orleans in ordinary years TIL
duty on corn is 20 cts per aroba of % lbs, o
about As cents per bushel. These are pro
hibitory duties, and are virtually an exclus
ion of all trade between us and the Island
against which we have good right to protest
