the report brought to Evansville was true
that the Stars AID Stripes had been pinned
to the seats OF the breeches of boys, negroes,
and rowdies, and publicly paraded through
the streets of that city and cheered by its
citizens. They in every instance denied
1t, and said they did not believe one huu-
dred men could be found in the city so low
as to tolerate it; and that the authorities
arrested one man for dragging the American
flag In the dust through the streets, who
was released upon the plea of insanity.

bS2S Our fellow-townsman, J. w. Hughes,
favors US with quite an interesting letter
from New Orleans, which we publish else

southern men and southern affairs general

have been in the habit of viewing them.
Having no other means of ascertaining
what was going on South or what were
the sentiments of the people in that section
except as we CLEANED them from papers of
that portion of the country, we had
come to-what from Mr.. Hughes letter
seems to be-the very erroneous con-
clusion that residents of the northern
states we not unfrequently honored with
coat of tar and feathers and some
lines received still greater attention by
having their ears cropped, while So
journing South. We regret that bitbero

B-The way Col. Qpimby, of Elmira,
New York, marched his regiments through
Baltimore:
Col Quimby has been the only officer
who has yet marched his regiment through
this city in military style He paid no
more attention to Marshal Kane's police
than so much chat. Brushing them aside,
be threw out company in double close col
umns across the street, from curb to curb,
as an dUant-gards, and a 81 milar one as an
drr'ere garde. Between these two marched
the rest Of the regiment in columns of four
abreast, all ready to repel any intrusion or
attack. The effect of this movement upon
the crowds was electrical 1t elected the
applause of all loyal citizens, and inspired

The Cash system.

After mature elaboration the Publishers Of
this paper have determined to adopted the
CASH SYSTEM. They have been led to this
step by the heavy losses experienced from
debts scattered throughout the State. which
they have been unable to collect, the neces-
sity which compels them to pay cash for la
Dor in the printing Office, for paper and other
supplies and the general adoption of the sys-
tenn on the part of leading houses in all
branches of trade and industry. The cash
system, necessary to protect us. will also be
beneficial 10 punctual subscribers, inasmuch
as it will rid US of the expense entailed by
non-paying subscribers, and enable US to re-
duce the price of our weekly paper. From
this date, therefore, we shall euter the name
of no person on our books as a subscriber,
unless be pays for his paper in advance. And
on the LIST day of July next, we shall erase
from our subscription lists every name not
paid in advance. Our weekly paper will be
tuco dollars per annum. Those who have al
ready paid in advance beyond the lst day OF
July. 1861, will be allowed the benefit OF this
reduction from that date.
~ We shall keep this notice standing IN our
columns until the Isl of July, and, on that day,
erase eperv delinquent fran our list.

The Union and American says: sthere has
been considerable discussion, within the last
few days, with reference to the number of
arms at the command of the Government of
Tennessee in the present perilous emergency.
We can state automatically that there are
now in the arsenal and in the hands of the
volunteers about fifteen thousand good arms,
consisting of Minnie muskets, old patent mus
kets, and Mississippi rifles The fint-loek
muskets are rapidly being altered to percus-
sion locks. There are scattered throughout
the State several thousand more, which are
now rapidly coming in under the vigorous
measures prosecuted to reclaim them 1t
is hoped that all who know of any of the
State arms in their districts, will assist in the
work of returning them to the arsenal i'm
mediately.
In addition to this inventory, it has been
ascertained that there are about "a, 600 sport
ing rifles in the hands of private parties,
which may easily be converted into irst-class
arms by the raised sight and the Minnie ball.
We are also authorized to announce that a
telegraphic dispatch was received last night,
that ample supply of arms will be shipped
here in few day.
The public solicitude on this subject may,
therefore, be at once dismissed.
Our brave volunteers will be well armed,
and with arms in their hands, they will GO
forth to battle, clothed in the panoply of in
vincibility.
