THE TRADE IN POWDER.
SURVEYOR 8 UFFICE,

surveyors OFFICE,
Evansville, Ind, July IL, 1862. I
EDITORS JOURNAL Previous to the goth
day of May last, the trade between this
city and the country on and south of the
Ohio river, was carried on under the super
vision of this Office, and no shipment of
goods could be made to those points, except
under special permit.
Many complaints against these restric-
tions on trade were made by our business
men and others, and on that day they were
removed by order of the special agent hav-
ing charge of the hlooI-adoy eneepG " the
disloyal States and to Western Kentucky.
Previous to that date shipments of pow
der to Kentucky were not permitted, ex-
cept in small quantities, and to persons of
undoubted loyalty and on that day there
were, and had been for weeks and months,
standing orders in this city from Kentucky
for powder, which could not be filled, and
which were not filed for the reason that
would not grant permits for its shipment.
This fact is we'll known to every wholesale
dealer in the city. And that there may be
no mistake about the matter, here dis
inctly state that the large quantities Of
powder which have been sent from this
city to Kentucky, since permits were abol-
ished, las above stately acre not permitted
By me, except a few small lots sent to Pa
ducah, KY, and which the buyers procured
permits for there, from the Advisory Com
mittee, before the purchases were made
here.
have refused to permit powder to be
sent to the country on the Cumberland
River, for the reason that the applicants
were not well known.
rms powder trade is all wrong, it never
should have been opened with nv consent
and demonstrated with the agent at the
time against the policy which has been
adopted.

ATTENTION, ARMY SUTLERs.-We desire
to call your especial attention to one of the
most valuable and saleable articles for the
use of the army-a preparation of medicines
that has stood the public test for more than
twenty years, and Las become familiar in
every household. This article, PERRY
DAvIss VEGETABLE PAIN KILLER" needs
no introduction; everybody knows it; the
soldiers know it, and you have only to keep
it to sell it. No remedy is mere efficacious
IN curing Diarrhea, Cramps, Dysentery,
Coughs Colds, Slight Wounds, or Bruises,
and many other ailments incidental to a
soldiers life. 1t is light and convenient to
carry, and can be resorted to on the march,
as we'll as in camp, without trouble. Being
used both internally and externally, its
value cannot be over estimated; in fact,
the soldiers want it and must have it, and
to keep such an article is the duty of every
sutler. II is sold at wholesale by Ed.

GEN. MCCLELLAN IN THE FIGHT From
all with whom we have conversed, we find
that Mcclellan proved how much he de-
serves the confidence of his soldiers. He
has directed personally the movements,
and during the Eve days fighting, has been
constantly under fire. He was in the front
encouraging and cheering his troops. He
has Jared with them-he gives himself no
rest, and shares their privations, their dan
gers and their hardships
GEN. SUMNER is said to have been brav-
est among the brave. Wounded in the arm
twice, and exhausted by a want of sleep
for forty-eight hours, he still kept the field,
although pressed by friends and surgeons
to retire. To all he replied: dNe 1 will

As the anniversary day on which our
time-honored sires, Drawing fearlessy the

The Condition Of England.

The London Morning Herald of July IA,
contains the following picture of the present
condition of England. The Herald is one
of the bitterest of our opponents and one of
the warmest advocates of intervention in
our affairs
We are actually spending more than our
income; we have used up every extraordna.
ry resource, every additional windfall; we
have reduced our balances at the national
bankers; we have increased our debt in
time of peace; in one word, 1--WE are drifting
into state of chronic deficit" We are in
financial straits; we are enduring a cruel
pressure of taxation, made unnecessarily
painful by prohigate fnancier, whose pol.
icy it has been to subordinate the public in
terests to the greed of clique and the con.
venience of cabinet. And all this while
our revenue has lost its much boosted recu.
perative power. Receipts are waning, trade
is falling off, the country suffers from deep
and widespread commercial distress. If,
under such circumstances, an extravagant
expenditure is still to 60 on in conjunction
with rotten and ruinous financial policy,
much more than the reputation of minister
already self-discredited, much more than
the stability of government already tot.
terlng, will be je0pardized.

MEMPHIS, August 16.-The Grenada
appeal, of the 18th inst, states that the
Federal troops took possession of Bayou
Sara on Monday, the 18th inst, Selling all
the sugar and molasses, and quartering a
garrison there. 1t says, also, that the rebels
have been reinforced in Arkansas that
their ordnance stores have been increased :;
and that Gen. Holmes has assumed com,
mand of that State. The Appeal contains
a long editorial, in which it says: "The
sooner we cease to look for foreign aid or Eu.
ropean interference, the better for all con.
cerned." The writer also designates Val
landigham, Wood, Pierce, and Seymour of
Connecticut, with some half dozen other
prominent men, as the only true friends the
South can count upon in the North.

gave his views to show that 60 far from the

greater than they were when every thing

L AFTER FROM EUROPE.

New York, August l9.-It is stated
that Slidell has had an interview with the
Emperor Napoleon, upon whom he urged
the subject of recognizing the Southern
Confederacy. Napoleon is said to have ad
mitted the cogency of the arguments set
forth by SlideIl in favor of such course,
but he said that the greatest barrier to the
South had been the objections of England.
Lord Palmerston, in speech delivered at
Sheffield, again advocated non.interference
in American affairs.
Mr.. Roebuck made speech on the same
occasion, but he took an opposite view from
that of Lord Palmerston, and held the
claims of the Confederates to be such as en-
titled them to recognition by England.
Another account says that the rebel en-
voys at Paris and London had demanded
the recognition of their government. 1t is
also stated that England refused the de-
mand, but that France had not yet replied.
The Paris B0urse closed very dull on
Saturday. Rentes are quoted at 68f. 25c.
The Confederate steamers Merrimac and
29O both succeeded in escaping from the
