We have long been convinced that
frst-class Cotton Mill could be
made profitable in our city-proftable
not@only to the stockholders, but to
every other interest. When it is SO
well known that the mill at Camel
ton is doing such good business, and
is contributing so much to build up
that.little village, we have been sur
prised that none of our capitalists and
business men have gone into a similar
mandatory in Evansville. We are
congehient to coal, but "a short dis
lance from the raw material, have an
abundance of cheap transportation,
and above all, ready market for all
the mill could turn out, at its very
DOORS
We are gratifed to learn that an ex-
cellent opportunity is now offered our
business men to establish a Cotton
Mill that win prove both creditable
and beneficial to the city. A gentle
man who owns full and complete
set of machinery-with perhaps few
unimportant exceptions = for spin
ming and weaving cotton,S is In our
city for the purpose of seeing what
can be done to form stock COM
pany for the erection and establish
ment of "a Cotton Mill. He thinks
company with $4,000 capital could
put into operation a factorythat would
pay good dividends on the invest
ment. czh Tvvsf
In this connection we might call to
the attention of our business men the
fact that the Marine Hospital is for
sale. With some slight alterations it.
would make a splendid factory, with
a good coal mine just adjoining. IF
sold at all we presume it Gamble pur-
chased cheap, and if converted into
good mandatory, the benefits our
city would derive from it are almost
incalculable-cer could not be
specified within the limits 7of-a short
newspaper article. gLga 'sge
We trust our business men will
bear this matter In mind, and If cali
ed upon by the gentleman of whom
we speak, be prepared to give him
favorable and attentive hearing o

represent Vanderburgh County in the
State Legislature EMIL BIsohoFf is
in all respects well qualified for the

county and district. As the editor of
a loyal German newspaper, and as an
eloquent and popular speaker, he is
well known to the citizens of this

rha C0ntemplated Conspiracy.

H.
There is a matter which has been
intimated by Washington correspond
ents heretofore, and which was plainly
discussed in the conference of Union
Congressman few days ago, which
may well give occasion for alarm to
all lovers of order and good govern
ment. It is now openly charged upon
the President, by men whose opin-
ions and means of knowledge com
mend their words to the attention of
the people, that he seriously medi-
tates compelling the admission Of the
Southern Representatives elect to
their seats by force. It was stated by
Mr.. FARNsWoRTH, of Illinois, that
Mr.. SEWARD had said that this Con-
gress would never meet again until
the Southern States were restored to
all their rights of representation.
Mr.. boutwell,, Of Massachusetts,
believed it to be beyond all doubt
that conspiracy was ON foot to put
the Government into the hands of
the rebels, and the President was a
party to it. He had no doubt they
contemplated resort to force, because
it was the logic Of events that they
should do so. These apprehensions
Hf Z.
were also plainly expressed by Sena-
tors WILSON, LANE of Indiana, and
Others in the conference, who are not
accustomed to raise idle fears or
speak recklessly on subjects of such
grave Importance a,a
The President affects the character
istics of ANDREW j AcKsoN, and it is
by 70 means improbable that the
reckless conspirators and rebels who
seem now to have his care and to lead
him on to the, accomplishment of their
desired ends, might induce him to be-
lieve the salvation of the country re-
quired him to re-enact the role of
CROMWELL. 1t would bea small mat
ter for the men who had plotted the
gigantic rebellion which came SO near
the destruction of the nation, and who
had caused the slaughter Of three hum
bred thousand loyal men, to drive
from the halls of Legislation the
Representatives of the people. At
this distance we cannot tellhow near
they are to such an act of treason, but
we do know that the only salvation Of
this country is in the cordial support
and endorsement by the people of the
loyal majority in Congress. The
Union Congressman have wisely per-
formed their duties. and manfully
resisted the encroachments of. an ar
,bitrary Executive upon their rights as
coordinate branch of the govern
ment, and it becomes the loyal masses
to strengthen their hands and see to it
that good and true men are sent to
the National and State Legislatures.
Should the power pass from the hands
Of the loyatmdjorrity in Congress, we
cannot estimate the ruinous effect it
may have upon the country.

The total amount covered by Etna poll
cies on property destroyed or damaged is
$2O6, S54, on which salvage will be about
five per cent. Our total loss will not vary
much from S2OO.O and is being adjust

per cent. upon the assets, a figure but
slightly exceeding our Government and
State taxes paid last year, or proportion
equal to a 1000 loss for a company of
$1,000 assets.
The necessity for insurance, and the
value of wealthy, strong corporations, is

weak Insurance Companies are destroyed.

SHOEING HORSES.

Were you to examine the first one
hundred horses you meet that have been
shod for several years, you would scarce,
" find one that has natural, well shap
ell hoof.
A friend brought me for examination,
q beautiful, spirited animal, that, without
perceptiblo cause, became so lame as to
be nearly useless. The owner feared a
founder. On examination | found the
tarlier had, by repeated close pairing and
rasping, nearly ruined the beast. The
enamel of the hoof had been broken, and
fine dirt was irritating the "quick."-
The bottom OF the hcof had been shaved
30 thin that a light blow between the
frog and toe made the animal cringe
with pain. Another instance of mal>
practice that came under my notice WAS
of horse that had club foot, caused
by improper side clipping. This horse
had by nature an unconmonly broad
hoof, and TO remedy the defect the
tarrier had made extensive inroads on
the sides, and nature, to restore the
equilibrium, and reconstruct the missing
part, contracted the toe and bulgsd the
sides above where they had been clips
ped, producing thus a great detormity.
Almost universally, where lameness oc-
ours from fiat foot, it is occasioned by
improper shoeing' Where this defec,
exists, the heel should never be pared,
and the shoe shonld be made stiff enough
to prevent hard pressure on the heel,
and it is sometimes advisable to place
the heel cork on one side of the shoe.-
Very bad cases have been remedied by
putting on round shoe, with leather or
rubber between the shoe and hoof. If
too many nails are inserted, the natural
expansion of the hoof is prevented, and
disease or deformity must ensue; more
than five nails in shoe can never be
needed, unless it be TO hide clumsy fit
ting. The weight Of the horse is best
equalized by placing three nails in the
outer portion OF the shoe, and two in
the inner portion, between the toe and
commencement of the inner quarter.
The following rules are given by a
distinguished veterinary surgeon:
lst. After having taken off the old
shoe, shorten the toe, and remove all the
dead and lose parts OF the hoot. Do
not cut the sole or pare the frog unless
the foot has received an injury tlon
nail of otherwise, when it must be cut
out.
I'd. Let the shoe be ofequal thickness,
with the exception of the heel, which
should DO rather thinner. The ground
and foot surface should be perfectly
level Too many nails are Objectionable,
and those used should be kept as far as
possible from the heels
Sd. For the hind feet there is no
objection to calkins, though they are OF
doubtful benefit. Horses travel much
bettor without them The hind shoes
are made thicker at the toes than at the
quarters, and the nails can be put closer
to the heels without inconvenience.
4th. Side clips should be avoided, they
destroy the hoof; this is the case when
the nails are too close together. The
feet should never be rasped, as it de-
stroyes the enamel Of the hoofs, lenders
them brittle, and causes sandcracks and
lame eness. .---Rural American.
