Progress of the Opposition

As 1t is a matter 10 which the citizens of
these counties are particularly interested in,
We refer to the competition between the
steamers Bowen and Courier and lie Gen.
Andersen, again- So far, he competition
has been honorable to both parties. The
rival steamers have kept up the tariff of
freight and passage, and We'd with each
other in acts of Kindness and accomm oua-
ton. This is all very well while it lasts.
but the question to be considered, and the
one that interests the people is, how long
will the opposition last? We are not
steamboatman, but those who are, tell us
that there Is not patronage enough between
Evansville and Cairo to sustain three or
tour steamboats,, making tri-weekly or
semi-weekiy trips. " LII this be so, then one
of the parties must draw out. Now which
one will it be2 The old line, the Bowen
and Courier, or the new one ? Some
persons argue that the new line mast remain
in the trade because it has the mail contract.
This does not necessarily follow. It would.
however, if the contract for carrying the
mail was an amount sufficient to def-ay the
expenses of running two boats, and they
were owned by the parties having the con-
tract. But in this case the sum of sic
thousand .JfUe hundred dollars is but a small
sum compared with the total expenses of
two steamboats, for twelve months. We
have also learned that Capt. Lew. Davis,
and other parties, not identified with the
mail, are large owners in the new line
NOW, to insure the permauelcy of the new
nne IN the trade, it must receive three

is gralified to learn that Robert Fowler,
Esq the Treasurer of Maryland, has tender

OF ranking as the second STATE which has
thus promptly rendered the war tax-Penn-

to pay. "Can't take that trash" said the
bluff Captain, his dander rising at the mere
sight of it. In an instant aad with fash
ing eyes, the woman poured forth torrent
of abuse on the Captain, and the Govern
ment he represented, for not taking her
miserable stuff as money, and was only
checked in her TRADE by the Captain de-
string her to keep her Confederate trash,
and he would keep his coffee. This brought
her to terms, but it was too late. Herself

BI Wear indebted to Mr.. G. Fl. Fish
of the Adams Express Company at Men,
phis, for copies Of the Avalanche and Ap-
peal of that city, to the 23d inst.
From the Avalanche of Monday we ex-
tract the following account Of skirmish in
Mississippi, capture of prisoners, burning
bacon, &C.:
On Friday morning, the 9Th Illinois
Federal cavalry made descent upon the
Confederate cavalry experimenting the
transportation of army stores between Cold
Water depot, on the Mississippi and Tennes-
see railroad, and Grenada. Blu. few rounds
were exchanged. There appears to have
been two squads of Confederates; a part of
the members of one was taken prisoners;
the other escaped, together with the burth-
en- train they we're watching. The FederaIs
captured 10000 pounds of bacon, which
they burned, all The bridges this side of

the opposition first presented itself, that
the people of the border counties are
too much attached to the old line
to Withdraw their patronage from it
The Bowen and Courier have met their
every expectation they feel under obliga-
tioas to the owners of these boats for Civ
/ ing them carrier for their goods and per-
/ sous at time when carrying was risk
/ almost too great to run. They have not
forgotten yet how the "little Bowen" car
ryiHg a 4-pound howifzer, bearded the
lion in bis den," aud charged the seeesh
I along the shore, making them skedaddle
whenever she turned point" And we
may confidently add, that boat that re-
manned in this trade. not only against the
influence of the Fowlers and Watts, Given
Co., but against the entire secession in
huence on that side of the river, will not be
easily circumvented by the present oppo-
sition.
We do not wish Capt Davis and his fine
steamer any harm, but this question is one
in which, as public journalist, we cannot
fail TO express our oplnions, based as we
believe them to be, upon justice and right.
s9~ This war debt, according 10 Hon.
ID. L. Dawes, actually incurred by Mr. Lin
coin up to The present time is 1851, no. 900,
or S704 $40 900 less than is estimated by
Mr.. VOORHEES,, the frieRd and supporter of
James Buchanan Mr.. Dawes further
proves from record that taking the civil ex-
penditures of the two Administrations, Mr..
Buchanan, in his first year, spent $4,000
900 more than Mr. Lincoln in bis second
year, 100000 more; in bis third year,
S2,000,O00 more; and in his fourth year
$773,00O
The editor of the Nashville Union Won
ders that Mr.. Dawes did not remind Mr.
Buchanan's friend of the Utah War The
cost of that famous war, consisting of one
expedition, under General Albert Sidney
johnson, was something over Sc 100000.
Now, if one expedition of say 10000
men cost Mr.. Bu;hau $4,000, GOO, very
simple calculation viii show that more than
a dozen expedit oEs, of upwards of 100000
men in the aggregate, would have cost the
