nSy-For nothing has the Republican
party in New York State been SO abused,
as for its Introduction aud support OF t"o
measures Of local reform-ihe MctroPoiI-
tan Police Bill, and the Ragistry Law.
These laws were intended to help no party,
bu; equally to enforce laws and prevent
illegal voting. Who could object Yet
the Democracy did object, aud did their
best to upset both laws. But, election al
ter election has passed, and every one de-
mous,ra,es the utility and justice Of both
laws. Never were laws 50 well admiuis-
tered-neper so few Illegal votes poIIed-
as the last election, aud the opposition to
those laws is changing to universal ap
plause of them by all honest citizens.

A New CHURcH.-The Presbyterian So
ciety, under the pastoral care of the Rev. Mr..
McCarer, has purchased so feet of the beau
tiful lot belonging to Mrs Lockhart, at the
corner of Second and Walnut streets, and
also the lot adjoining it ON the upper side.
belonging to Mr.. Hughes. These purchases
give the Society lot 80 feet by 14O feet on
Second street, on which they propose to
build, during the next summer, a new
church, that will, in dimensions and style Of
architecture, excel any of our present reli-
gious edihces.
1t will be seen by an advertisement that
the property on Main and Second streets,
donated to the church by the early proprie-
tors of the city, is offered at private sale
The proceeds of this valuable property will
enable the Society to erect an elegant stvlc-
ture, one that shall be an ornament and
credit to the city. The removal of those old
dilapidated frame buildings that now encum-
Der the church property, and the erection of
row of modern brick stores in their place,
will greatly improve the appearance of Main
street. The improvements in building dur
ing the next season, already determined
upon, will make IL greater change in the as
pect of the city than all that has been done
in the last tour years, as great as the i'm
provements during that period have been.

Majority and minority reports have been

The Senates Post Office Committee have
agreed to report bill increasing postage
rates to five, cents for all distances under
three thousand miles. This feature was OPP
posed by Mr.. Bigler, of Pa, Dixon, of Ct,

From NEW oaLnAss.-we are indebted

FROM New ORLRANs-We gre indebted
to Captain Brown, of the steamer Antelope,
for New Orleans papers of the 18th instant.
Business is unusually active, and the city is
filed with strangers from all parts of the
world. The Picayune says there are large
number OF houseless, homeless and destitute
persons in the city, who throng about the
different police stations, begging for lodg-
ings. How they manage to live, or where
they spend the day, is a mystery. Ateven-
tide they emerge like bats from their hid
ing places, traverse the streets until they
might attaact the observation of the police,
when they come up, one by one, to the Sta
ton House, asking for shelter as charity,
to avoid commitment.
Gen. Twiggs had arrived at New Orleans
from Texas to meet Gen. Scott to consult
upon the disposition of the troops along the
Mexican line.

THE TENANT HoUsE-We are indebted to
the publisher, r. NJ. Dewitt, of New York,
through Mr.. John Healey, bookseller of this
city, for this new and popular work. 1t is
very handsomely gotten up in typography,
illustrations, and binding. The character
of the story is indicated by its secondary
title, which is "The embers from poverty's
hearthstone" The work is highly commend
ed by the Rev. DR.. Hawkes., of New York,
and other eminent literary and pious men.

The annual meeting of the American Col

Smithsonian Institute. The Secretary re-
ports that the receipts last year were nearly
SCI, 900, and represents that there is an in
creasing disposition among free colored per-
sons in tho Northern States to emigrate to
Africa. The general interests of Liberia are
improving. The opinion is confidently ex-
pressed that the opposition to African col.
onization and to Liberia, will fail to arrest
the progress ofthe Society, and great events
are anticipated.

A PUBLIc SPIRITED AcT.-Several petit
tons have been sent to the Post Office De-
partmeut, praying for the establishment of
a mail route on Green River, from this city
to Bowling Green. The answer to these pc
titions has been that the pecuniary condi-
ton the department did not allow of any
. increase of routes. Although millions were
being expended in the support of Ocean
Steamship Lines and Overland Pacific
Routes, not hundred dollars could be
spared for the accommodation of Western
community, on an interior domestic route,
where the mail matter and the necessities for
mail communication, were equal to those
on some of the steamship routes. After
hearing these replies from the department,
Capt Mclean, the owner and Commander
of the Bowling Green, addressed letter,
yesterday, to the Postmaster General, offer
B ing to carry seni-weekly mail from this
city to Cromwell, or as high up the river as
his boat should run. for whatever pay the
department, in its distressed pecuniary con-
dition, could afford to pay.
2 If after the service had been rendered, tht
Post Master General should be unwilling o.
unable to make any compensation, the ser
vice should be considered public gratu
ity, rendered for the accommodation anC
benefit of the people of Evansville
and those residing in the Valley of Greer
River. On these conditions, we shall
undoubtedly be granted a mail. Captain
Mclean certainly deserves the public thank
for his generous offer, and as the Depart
ment cannot compensate him for the ser
vice, it will be the duty of our citizens t.
saa that he is remunerated in another way
