bushels per year. But as the quantity
mined is being constantly increased. we
can not calculate what the amount per
year will be. If the Lexington and Big
sandy Railroad was finished TO Lexington,
a market for every bushel of this coal
could be found in our own State. Now
nearly the whole is sold to go out to other
States"

How manytimes have we heard the
statement that Evansville badly needs
a first class Hotel? How many times
has every one of our readers been
forced to admit the unwelc ono truth 2
Talk to stranger about our7advan-
tages and importance as compared
with other cities, and Invariably the
answer we receive is that our great
want is a good Hotel, and that with
out it we have little to boast of as-a
city. AlEcitizens feel the great neces-
sity there is for such an Improvement,
in order to make our city what it
should be, and that we constantly
suffer in many ways for the lack of IT.
And yet we are apparently no nearer
the realization of our great want than
we were before the war.
We are fully convinced that il the
Nashville Railroad is built, or even as
soon as its completion is assured. we
will have in Evansville what we have
so long needed, and which every citi-
zen would rejoice to see, fine hotel
building. 1t could not be delayed. If
our own monied men would not form
joint stock company, for its cree
ton, it would be such a good invest
,ment that hotel men and capitalists
from abroad would do the work which
our citizens have too long left undone.
And this is only one of the good eff
fects which must flow from the build
ing of the E. III. & N. Road. 1t
will quicken all kinds of public en-
terprises into new life. 1t will give
us mere confidence in our future pros
perity, and in our ability to undertake
and carry forward other improve
ments which are pressing upon u.s.

The Death Of Another Democratic

> During the past quarter of CEN
fury and more, it has been the duty
of the JOURNAL to chronicle the
death of host of Democratic city
newspapers which have, in immature
youth, come to an untimely grave.
1t is our duty this morning to scatter
the ashes of brotherly sorrow over
the last resting place of another of
the departed; and clothing ourselves
in sack cloth, utter our lament over
the early demise of valiant cham
pion of the Democracy. 1t is none
the less mournful, because we are so
often called upon to repeat the cere-
moGy. -
The Sentinel on the Border, which
dates its birth backward in the fight
sof time, only five months, yesterday
published the editors valedictory, and
closed its career in this city. 1t is
announced that the paper will soon
re-appear at Niles, in the State of
Michigan. 1t is unnecessary fer US to
refen to the spirit which has actuated
its editorial management, or the prin-
ciples which it has advocated. There
is an ancient proverb which reminds
US that we. must speakly. kindly Of
the dead THE 4preprietorihas hbor-
ed assidaously aud patiently to estab,

Democracy, and that be may be bet
ter supported and have more sue,
ccssful career. -
