THE CHINESE YAM.-Dr. Darnall is still
engaged in raising this vegetable; and from
the size of the one he recently sent us, we
should judge that he is making considerable
proficiency in the art. We are glad to no.
tice that this vegetable, after encOuntering
much opposition on the part of n few who
were unwilling to give it a trial, is now
fast gaining in public favor. The one sent

Last Library Lecture.

We are pleased to learn that the Lecture
Committee of the Library Association have
been fortunate enough to secure the distin-
guished German orator and scholar, Hon.
Carl Shurz of Wisconsin, to close the Lii
brary course. The Lecture will take place
next Thursday evening at Marble Hall. Al
though Mr.. Schurz is not very generally
known in this city, we have no doubt he
will draw full house. We congratulate
the lecture-going public on having so fitting
a close to the most successful and entertain
ing course of lectures ever delivered in
Evansville Mr. Schurz lectures tomorrow
evening in Terre Haute.

New YORK, March 5.-The 'TIf6unes
correspondent says the Mexican Treaty is
not delayed before the Senate on account of
any documents or any information to be
furnished from the State Department, but
because the opposition of Mr.. Wigfall and
the approval of his sentiments by Mr.. Ham
mOnd rendered the delay of the ratification
inevitable, without some fortunate interven-
ton. Six Democrats and perhaps more de-
clared they would not support the treaty,
and Mr.. Bright is among the number.
The Department Of the Interior is engaged
in examining the charges preferred against
Gov. Cumming of Utah, who, it is said,
charged his salary for a private Secretary
two years, and deducted the amount from
the contingent fund when there was no such
officer in the Territory.
Mr.. Forney, Indian Agent for Utah, is
also on trial for charges preferred for false
vouchers in his account with the Govern
ment.
The Herald's correspondent says Mr.. Geo.
Sennott Counsel for Stephens and Has,
lett, arrived here yesterday, and had an in
terView with the President in the hope of
obtaining his personal influence with the
Governor and Legislature of Va, to obtain
their pardon. The President treated Mr.
SennOtt kindly, and expressed to him his
warmest sympathies, and the hope that he
will succeed in his mission; but while he did
not decline to act directly, he did not prom
Use TO take action. Nj. Sennott leaves here
for Richmond tomorrow, having the as
suranceS from Governor Letcher, that he
shall have hearing before the Committee
on Pardons, on behalf of his client He will
| ask for general amnesty in their case
Mr. McLane left here this afternoon for
New York, and will sail in the Brooklyn on
Tuesday next for Vera Cruz. He is clothed
by our Government with ample power and
instructions to protect American citizens
and property in case of attack by Miramon's s
party. The Squadrons movement will also
be governed in great degree by McLane S
orders. He is fully empowered for every
emergency that may arise This policy has
been determined on by the Government

The weekly journal.

We wish to run up the subscription list
of our Weekly. We can just as well preach
the faith of Opposition to Lecomptonism, to
thousands as to hundreds of readers. Our
list, though large, may easily be raised to
two or three thousand, if our friends of the
Opposition in South Western Indiana and
Southeastern Illinois will only exert them
each of our subscribers will recommend the
paper to his neighbors, the work is accom-
plished. Just show the paper to your neigh
Dor, tell him it is only one dollar per year,
and he must be poor indeed, or careless about
informing himself and family of the start
ling events constantly transpiring in this
"breathing world" if he does not subscribe.
Why, one well-filled Weekly home news
paper is better to instruct growing family
in the practical affairs of life, than any 9TH
er means of instruction. Think of it for
one dollar a year-less than two cents a
week-yOu can furnish your family the
means of informing themselves well in re-
gard to all affairs of public interest, besides
supplying them with a great deal of useful
reading matter that will make them better
men and women-better citizens-and more
successful in life. 1t is fact that the profit
on the eggs of one hen illpay for the Jour
nal. Make the calculation and satisfy your
selves. We venture to say, that the little
ten-year-old boy or girl of any farmer will
be glad to make the experiment if encour-
aged. Try it, and see if it is not the best
investment you ever made.
To the Opposition we say, you owe it to
your party to assist in spreading your news
papers. Now is the very time te do this,
when men have money to spare from last
year S products, and when the spirit of an
animated contest is just getting excited.
We ask the Opposition to exert themselves
to extend our circulation. We expect to
put in our best licks for the good of the par
ty, and all we ask in return is subscribers
to sustain us and read our teachings
/ As n lfrrs paper, ours is second to none
in this part of the country (if we do say it
ourselves), for wespare no pains nor expense
to get the latest intelligence
In the matter of the Markets. we endeavor
to be full aud reliable We also try to make
ours a valuable paper for Farmers
Now give us lift--ench one. That is
all we ask.
Any person who gets us up club of ten
subscribers and sends us ten dollars there
for, shall have one copy Of the paper year
for his or her trouble.
Send on your dollar and we will send you
the paper for year, and promise you the
full worth of your money.

An incision is made on the breast or back of

SUNDAY WoRK.-The Enquirer is to he
issued hereafter on Sunday morning instead
of Monday.
Amongst other reasons given for the
change, the publishers say, Issuing Sun
day paper, obviates Sunday work"
Of course it is none of our business wheth-
er our neighbors issue on Sunday or Mon
day; but us the above remark would lead
the reader to suppose that Sunday work is
absolutely necessary on Monday paper,
we wish to- " set ourselves right before the
country" as the politicians say.
In this office, We issue the Daily on
Monday morning, and have all the news in
that we can lay hands on, and do not do a
lich Of ,cork on Sabbath, except that occa-
sionalIy the press of telegraph news keeps
us up an hour or two after midnight Satur-
day night. Our press work is all done ear
ly on Monday morning. If anything I'M
portdnt should happen on Sunday-which is
very likely to be the case-we should OF
course give the particulars to our readers on
Monday morning.
Suppose that our neighbor's reasou-sav-
| ing Sunday work-should induce us tc
change our time of publication to Sunday
morning. We have shown that, with a
possible occasional exception, we do no Sab
bath work. If we issued on Sabbath morn.
ing, we should have to work occasionally
after midnight Saturday night, put our pa
per to press, fold the papers, and send ou
carriers perambulating all over towns
bad public example to other hoys-dH o.
Sunday morning. This would be saving
Sunday work with vengeance
