A Grand Procession
Magnificent Music!
A sumptuous Dinner !

Saturday was proud day for Wander
bargh county, and joyous day to the
wives and children Of our brave ''boys
in blue"
The heavy rain of Friday high, caused
many misgivings on the part of the
friends of the soldiers, that the proposed
demonstration would prove at least
partial failure, bat the morning broke
fair and beautiful, and inspired new
hopes
At an early hour well filled baskets
could be seen as they we're carried to
the hall, giving assurance that right
nobIy had the ladies Of Evansville done
their duty on this, as on all occasions,
when an appeal is made to theiS patriot
isn and generosity.
Before o'clock wagons loaded with
wood began to arrive in the suburbs Of
the city, and another and another until
by 10 o'clock the streets at the several
points Of rendezvous were crowded, and
the Chief Marshal and his assistants
commenced the difficult task of arrange
ing the procession and forming junction
Of the four columns Of this rear guard Of
the great UGion army.
| It required considerable strategy TO
bring everything into proper order and
prevent confusion, but the Marshal and
bis subordinates proved themselves
equal TO the undertaking.
| At the appointed boar the Crescent
City Silver Band, 10 a large band Wagon
drawn by four splendid and spirited
horses, driven by Mr.. Richardson, took
its position at the head Of the center o.
the column, and With such music as they
alone can make, the procession was pal
in motion, moving down Main street
The right center, that had formed a
the lower Market House, moved ap ThirC
street, and formed we'll timed junction
With the left center at the corner, o

The right wing, which had rsniez
voused on Water street, near the Blue
warehouse, proceeded up Water TO SycA

And NANNY hid
As fast as the wagons were uulosde1
the happy but tired drivers took their
way to Mozart Hall, where another
monument, not so large or 80 roagh az
that on Seventh street, bad been pre-.
pared BY the patriotic and large hearted
ladies' Of Evansville.
Three tables, the entire length Of the
Hall, we're fairly grooming under the
great accumulation Of delieacies that
had been heaped up TO cheer the stom-
aehs aAd the hearts Of the men who had
so generously given to the soldiers
Tho Band bad dinner prepared in
one of the side rooms. and ate while the
wood-haulers we're gathering, and when
all were in, they fell to with an en-.
srgy that showed how kseniy their APP
pe:,ties had been whetted bg the labor
of love they had just performed--tbe
silver horns, in the meanwhile, cheer
ing them with the most delicious strains
of music.
Many Of those who brought in loads
of wood expressed the opinion that the
dianer was ample pay for the wood they
had given, and that they bad the pleas
ure Of making others happy as clear
profit
There was, it is true, s great diversity
in the quantity and quality Of the va
rious loads, but all were given, We doubt
not, in the same spirit of patriotism and
singIeness of heart
Appended We give the names of the
donors, by townships, so far as it was
possible to ascertain. If any are omit
ted, We shall be obliged to any one who
will furnish us the names
The number of loads, we believe, Is
25a, including coal, of which there we're
some 500 bushels
The state OF the roads prevented many
from coming in who had PurpOsed to do
so, and We doubt not ere hundred loads
more win be added to the :. soldiers

EASTERN FrNANcEs.-At the date Of our
last mail advices from the East, August Sd,
received per steamer, more cheerful feel
ing seemed to prevail, and people Of all par
ties were canvassing together the situation
of political, military and financial affairs,
with far less of disagreement, and with
calmer tone than at any previous date for
many weeks. The new Secretary Of the
Treasury, Mr.. Fessenden, had gone to Bos-
ton, and was to 90 hence to Portland on
brief visit to his home. A good deal Of con-
fidence was beginning to be felt in the finan-
cial policy Of the Secretary. The large sub
scriptious throughout the North to the new
7-30 loan, afford ample evidence Of this, and
indicates complete success and speedy alb
sorption. The people appreciate the fact
that that they have no clearer or more imper-
alive duty than to sustain the national credit,
and the alacrity with which the appeal OF MIR.
Fessenden was being responded to, warrant
us in believing that the financial measures OF
the Government are likely to assume more
satisfactory condition than for some time
past. The U. S. Sub Treasurer in this city,
ID, w. Cheeseman, has been authorized to
receive subscriptions to the new 7-3O curren-
cy loan. Thus far the deposits have net been
as large as was anticipated, but the recent
advance at the East in all Government secu-
rites may stimulate deposits Of greenbacks
here in exchange for these bonds. For pur-
poses of remittance East in lieu OF Lega!
Tender notes, at the present market value OF
the latter, the exchange would be desirable

Goop SESsE.-The Nevada Gazette
speaking of the schism in the Union Par
" in that State (the "Short-Hair" and
Long Eared" factions), proposes to
drop those titles OF derision, and come up
manfully and unitedly to the support of
the Union Ticket. As the Gazette is Of
the defeated wing, the tone of the article
ia commendable. 1t says:
Our motto is, let bygones be bygones; let
the past, so far as things may have been said
calculated to divide the Union men, be buried
in oblivion-or at least so buried until after
the Presidential election, and until the next
primaries. We cannot afford to white
away any strength. We shall need 1t all in
giving a quietus to the internal rebels and
Copperheads that infeSt our State. Let all
good, true Union men unite in giving battle
10 the rebel enemy. They are our foes, and
upon them we should turn out batteries.
We commend the sentiment to the de-
feated and sore-headed Union men of this
county, of all factions, and the object Of
unity being the same here as in Califor-
MIA, we recommend the same course OF
Cancellation, forgetfulness of the past, and
effective concentration of good Union
men,

GooD FOR JAKE CLARK, IF TRUE, COP
.ERHEAD OR NO CoPPBRREAD YESTERDAY,
n the presence Of several Union men, the
ollowing conversation, in substance, took
place: "Therel just as l expected would
Se the result of your election, Mr.. Clark.
What is that ?" a Just heard an Irish
nan saw, now that Clark is elected We shall

If men wish to shout for JEFF. Davis, they

other remarks Of a similar character.
We find the foregoing in the local coll
umns of the Union of this morning. The
Z" if true" part of it is good. In the FIRST
place, we don't believe Clark said any
such thing. In the second place, if he
did say it, he kicked the platform to
pieces" of those who nominated and elect
ed him. That kind of Democracy"
wont satisfy the Copperhead sachems and
FOUNDERS" of these latter days; and If
Jake Clark is man enough to make such
declarations, and stand up to them, he
will find the Democratic" ranks no
place for him, in a very short time. We
would be glad to believe the story but we
can't hoist it in.

HE HUMBOLDT OREs.-We noticed
sometime since patent for separating the
lead from gold and silver ores, and sug-
gested to the Humboldters TO steal the
patent, it being generally understood that
lead predominates in the ores Of that dis
trict to an extent that adds most oner-
ously to the expenses of shipping bullion.
To this suggestion the Register replies as
follows:
There, now: that goes to show how uncer-
tain are human calculations. Ed. Balbach
mot Beelbach1, of the Newark Smelling and
Refining Works, has brother, an assager in
KNOXVILLE By the time we'd have one OF
those inclined hearths fired up, Charley
would have papers out nipping US for in
frinSement; and we'd have TO take up our
beveled hearth and slide out. We get along
pretty well, though, Mr.. News, on the level.
Lead isn't troublesome in any but the Sheba
class Of ores, and they'll soon be fixed to
take most Of il out, so as TO save expense in
shipping bullion.
We are pleased to learn that our friends
in Humboldt are about to get rid Of what
has proved a serious drawback upon sew
eral of the best mines of that region.

Politics AT THE SANDWICH ISLANDS,
The King of the Sandwich Islands has en-
acted coup Eetat. He has arbitrarily dis
solved the Convention which was called to
remodel the Constitution of 1852, and this
leaves his subjects precisely as France was
left after the bloody coup d'etat Of December,
1851, without any law or constitution save
the will of the King. The British and
French influences on the Islands are said to
be at the bottom OF this new political mis-
chief, for the purpose Of destroying Ameri-
can preponderance which threatened to engulf
them. II our advice could reach our coun-
trymen there and influence their conduct, we
should caution them by all means to avoid
any demonstration toward revolution a. the
present time. That is precisely what the
French and English desire, to furnish them a
pretext for intervention. so that they can
seize and fortify the islands, and hold them
for their future plans Of trade and conquest.
We should say-wait; withhold the pretext
for intervention for the present. The fruit is
ours, but it is not yet ripe. At some time
not very far off this nation must and will
have those islands, cost what it may.
