RErUTN OF THE jews TO PALESTINE.

RErUTN OF THE jews TO PALESTINE.
To the christian, the present move
ment Of the Jews is a subject Of the
deepest interest. The Jews are a
most extraordinary people; and their
history is replete with thrilling and
wonderful events. Though often and
severely chastised, they are neverthe-
less the chosen people Of God, through
whom the sublimest manifestations Of
the divine will and love have been
made to our race. Every portion Of
their past history is full of interest TO
the world, and as we cannot antici-
pate the dealings of God with this
people in the future, we canuot but
watch the developments as they are
gradually made 10 us.
What is TO be the result Of their
return to Palestine =? Who can faith
ON the object Of their return? We
do not expect any farther revelation,
and what is to be accomplished by
their settlement in the Holy Land is
a profound mystery. Is this to be the
dawn of the Millennium ? The gospel
began at Jerusalem, and is the glori
Gus day Of universal peace to begin al
the same point? What a mystery
hangs over this subject.
Why is it that the Mohammedan ha:
given his consent TO sell the Mosque
Of Omar, which now stands OF
the very site of the Jewish Temple
This Mosque is held in the highest
veneration 10y all Mohommedans; and
why have they consented to give "
their most sacred shrine 10 another
people and to another religionl Wher
did Mahommedan ever consent t
such a sacrifice in all the past?
We watch, and can but watch
with the deepest interest, the mysteri

New Coal Discoveries.

We learn from the Rockport Democrat
that a magnificent vein of coal has been dis
covered on a farm about three miles west of
that village. The vein is from three to three
feet and a half thick, and the quality of the
coal is claimed to equal that of the Pitts
burg mines. The same paper says another
vein-being six feet thick of pure coal-has
been found about three miles and a half
South west of that town. This vein is only
fifty feet below the surface of the ground'
and can be mined with very little difficulty.
Should the coal prove to be of as good a
quality as the Democrat seems to think it
will, it will add greatly to the wealth of
that neighborhood. But We see no good
reason why the coal in the vicinity of Rock
port should prove so superior to the general
itv of coal found in Southern Indiana.

IMMENSE Dnovrs OF ANTELOPE writer

IMMENSE DRovEs OF ANTELoPE.-A writer
in the st. Louis Republican, who dates his
letter at Denver City, says:
As we reached the summit of one of those
long swells which make up the prairie in
this region, we found the valley before us
literally filed with antelope. There must
have been several thousand of them, at the
lowest estimate. At first they were within
gun-shot, but with the tieetness of the wind
they were soon out of reach of the leaden
messengers of death. 1t is only by means
of an intervening ridge or rrvine they can
ever be approached AS they dashed away,
showing off to the best advantage their
snowy-white and brown color, could not
but think of Him whose are the sheep and
cattle upon thousand hills" The day
may not be far distant when the buffalo shall
disappear from these plains-the hunter may
waylay or run him down; but the antelope,
with its fieetness to defe1d it will be found
here for years to come.

=. A case was tried for the second time in a
Cincinnati Court, few days since, involv-
ing the title to barrel worth 80 cents
The costs of the case have amounted to
over $50, and as it is to be appealed, they
will probably reach $500.
MURDERER SENTENcED.-James Burns was
sentenced at Cincinnati on Tuesday, to be
hung on the 3Oth of March. Vim. Buckley
was sentenced to Imprisonment for life,
having been convicted of murder in the I'd
degree.
VERY SANDY The editor of the Savan-
nah Repafblican is in receipt of letter from
one of the cotton manufacturing companies
In Georgia, mentioning the purchase of
crop of cotton at Macon, which from actual
weight contained 50 per cent. of sand, leav-
ing but 40 per centum of cotton.
The horse railways in Boston are about to
be extended through various parts of the
commercial quarter of the city, in order to
accommodate the public better. The same
thing is talked of in BROOKLYN and New
York.

john zen for President.


The Nashville Banner raises at its mast
head the name of the iliustrious statesman,
John Bell, for the Presidency in 1860, and
thus speaks of him.
81 We confidently speak for the whole
Opposition to Democracy throughout the
State-and we believe that Opposition, with
the name of Tennessee s greatest Statesman
as a rallying point, constitutes majority of
the whole people-When we place, rs we do
this morning, the name of Hon. John Bell
at the head of our column for President -
1850, as the candidate of the Conservative,
Union-Ioviug, upporting, and
secessi0n-opposing Opposition to modern
Democracy, or modern political corruption.
We have not the least hesitation in thus at
tempting to speak for The Opposition of
Tennessee. We are confident that Mr.. Bell
IS their first choice for tue highest office in
their gift and that should his name come
before the country as 81 candidate, they
would rally to his support with an earnest
enthusiasm, and fixed determination to
give him the electoral vote of Tennessee,
which conld not be successfully opposed
The Banner says, that while Mr.. Bell is
its first choice, it is prepared TO support for
that Office ratiaBeHI, conservative man
who may be chosen by convention of Ma
tional Union men.

view of the fact that 1860 is leap year;
Are the girls aware that this year is leap

that they are verging towards uncertainties
to make desperateplunge. We know one
or two gentleman who ought to be married
and probably the right kind of tactics would

DIsAGREEABLE REcoRDs.-Mr. Iverson, OF
Georgia, delivered speech in the United
States Senate, on Monday, in reply to one
previously made by Senator Pugh, of Ohio.
Mr. Pugh, in the course of his remarks,
proved that the Georgia Senator was, few
years ago, strong squatter sovereignty
man. Mr. Iverson, in his reply, frankly
acknowledges the fact, but says he has
since repented of that heresy. There is a
spice of manliness in the Georgian's ac-
acknowledgements that we admire How
much more honorable is his. manner of dis
posing OF disagreeable record, than that
pursued By our recreant Representative from
the Terre Haute District. Mr.. Davis resort
ed to denial-instead of frank confession
Ito help him outof a political dilemma His
course on this occasion he will regret but
once, and that win be all his life
Wm- ]. Brown, years ago, in his eager
ness..to grasp the prize which seems to have
dDzzled Mr.. Davis's eyes, was questioned as
to certain promises he had made to certain
men in case they should give him their sup
port. His answer was "shake of the
head, and that unfortunate shake chung
to him through life. Mr.. Davis's position is
more unenviable than was that of Browns.
He had the hardihood to openly deny what
seems TO be well authenticated fact. We
admire the gentleman's pluck, but his dis
erection is execrable. His political future
rests under a dark cloud.

BGH The Washington correspondent of
the New York Times says Mr.. Seward has
urged the Republican members Of the
House Of Representatives to abandon Mir.
Sherman and unite ON Gilmer, of North
Caroline, or Corwin, of Ohio. This advice
may do well enough On Mr.. Seward part
as a SOP thrown 10 the Z" Conservatives"
bat as matter OF policy it is particularly
iu-timed. The Republicans could not sup
port Mr.. Gilmer without stultifying them
selves; inasmuch as he has said he never
could support Republican. Mr.. Corwin
would answer first rate; but our opinion
is, if they conclude to drop Mr. Sherman,
the Republicans should unite on Mr.. Hick-
man, of Pennsylvania - one of the most
fearless and honest Representatives that has
ever graced the House. UnmindfuI Of the
fiattorys and regardless Of the frowns of the
Administration, he has planted himself upon
the rights of the people of the Territories,
and fights their battle in no halfway man
ner. If Mr. Sherman cannot be Speaker,
as a mattersof policy, the Republicans should
endeavor TO place John Hickman in the
chair

I We copy the following deserved
and highly complimentary notice of Benin 5
Commercial College of this city, from the
Mount Carmel (nl.) Register, of the 9th inst.
We commend it to the careful perusal of all,
and especially 10 the young men ofour city
and vicinity:
BEHMs EyANsvILLE COMMERCIAL COLLEGE.
We would advise all Young men who desire
to devote themselves to mercantile pursuits
to avail themselves of the facilities afforded
by this deservedly popular institution for
acquiring thorough knowledge of practical
housekeeping as well as the general science
of business.
Indeed, young men ofany pursuit who can
afford it, would find it good investment
to make good book-keepers of themselves
Much money is annually lost by tradesmen
and farmers as well as by commercial men,
because OF their imperfect system of keep
ing accounts, and many have actually failed
from Ignorance of the rules of loss and pro-
nj. But to the young man who aims to go
INTO commercial business, an attendance
upon course of lectures in commercial
college is indispensable.
They teach him in a few months more
of the theory and practice of the law or
science of business than he could gain by
years of experience. So well understood
has this fact become that almost every city
IN the country supports one or more of these
institutions; but we know of no one that
affords greater advantages, or is more wor-
thy of patronage than Prot. Behms Com
mercial College at Evansville.
1t is one of the best in the country, and
as such we commend it TO the young men
of Southern Illinois. Prof. Benin is a thor
ough accountant as well as an accomplished
gentleman, and no man will devote himself
more assiduously TO the task of instructing
and benehtting students than he.
BY years of persevering effort, he has Sc
cured for his College a first-class character,
and his superior qualifications as teacher
of bookkeeping, is daily charging his rep
utation and increasing the number of stu
dents in his College.
The present is favorable time for young
men to commence, and we advise them to
give the subject their attention.
