A COOP MovE.-At the Council meeting
on Monday evening Isl, a petition was pre-
seated, signed BY a large majority Of the
property holders on Main street, between
First aud Third streets, praying that said
street be suitably graded, aud paved with a
good boulder pavement. Councilman Eli
oft stated that il was the intention to have
Main street paved, ia a similar manner, from
Water to Eighth streets, and that petitions
were being circulated with that object in
view, in the other blocks on that street. At
ter a sad experience in hoard pavements and
gravel streets, the citizens have concluded
il Is best To put down material that will
last, although the first cost may he expen-
siye. Evansville has been somewhat rele-
brated for her muddy streets, aud We are
glad TO see that this reproach is to br taken
away. Let US have one street thoroughly
paved with boulders, and the advantage
will be SO apparent that property holders on
other streets will be stimulated TO 90 aud do
likewise, and bat n short time will elapse
until all OF our principal business streets
viii be thoroughly paved. t-aF,.s
This work, if il is done this summer,
should be commenced Immediately, aud
prosecuted with vigor. The river is falling
rapidly, and il will soon he difficult naviga-
ton for loaded boats. Boulders, too, have
been in such demand in the larger Western
cities, that there is danger of their becom-
ing scarce. We hope the Council-even If
no more petitions come in will take def
mite action on the one presented at its last
meeting, and advertise for bidsforthwith Let
us have at least two squares on which We
can stand dry shod amid the rain and slnsh
of next winter.

The territorial overland mail route be-
tween Neosho, No., and between Kansas and
Stockton, California, which were lie: by con-
tract last winter, have been discontinued,
to take effect from the first of July next.
The failure of Congress to make the usual
appropriation for the post Office department,
the interruptions Of the mails, mostly from
the hostile Indians along the lines, and the
consequent reduction Of mail matter TO a
comparatively insignificant amount, are the
reasons for the discontinuance OF this over
land service.
