The JOURNAL c0Htthues 10 0f6f an Sc
ceptan nee Of the First street 6rgans banter
to leave the question, as TO which has the
largest Kentucky Circulation, to the abitra-
ment of three -disinterested parties o be
chosen The organ knows better than to
run the gauntlet. This is q new feature in
journalism. There is something novel in
a Radical newspaper having the circula-
ton, no matter how small, on that side OF
the river.-E rdnspiHe Sentfn Z.
The election in Kentucky on the 4tn of
next month, will open the eyes of our
people to the ne-men-j e-o1s number of
RAIDS across the river from whom the
JOURNAL draws its very WeGkty support.
EvansrtHe Courier.
There is nothing strange in the
matter of our Kentucky circulation
It is only proof of the soundness of
the Union men of that State. While
they submitted to the leadership
of the timid Conservatives, who
claimed utilization with theNorthern
Democracy, there could be-very little
sympa thy or CO. operation between the
Union men of Kentucky and Indi ana.
But as soon as theyA.cut loose from
the dead body of slavery and conser-
vatism, they found themselves at once
in unison with the great National
Union patty of the country. The
action of the Union State Conventions
which metrat Frankfort on the 18th of
February, isendorsed BY thesruly loyal
men Of Kentucky, and there is being
deveopedsail over the, State strong
and rapidly growing epartyEwhich is
destined to rule the State. In Vest
ern Kentucky the number of genuine
Union men has been very considera-
BILE, but owing to the time serving
policy of the Conservative leaders
they have heretofore been kept down,
and not allowed to assume an aggres-
sive and Independent position Here
after they will be known and respect
I'd as a party Of bold and determined
men. One Of the first requisites to
The maintenance and success of the
party was the circulation -of sound
1eitieap truth; and as there was nos
Union newspaper in this section of
Kentucky, they at once selected the
Evansville JOURNAL as their organ,
md have been giving it a cordial and
LIBERAL support. Our circulation
within the past three weeks has run
Up beyond our highest expectations;
nd our advices lead us to believed
hat within another month it will bel
more than doubled. T
The Courier intimates that the Con-
ressional election in May next willa
evelop the fact that the Union party
cross the. river is very. Insignificant.
We do not claim that there is any
that it will carry eitherl
be First or Second Congressional
Districts, or that in most of the coun-
les it will be able in any degree to
ope with the rebel Democracy. But.
!. will poll a bettersvofe than did the
republican party in the First District
f Indiana in the Presidential cleo
ion Of 1856. 1t is the party of pro-
ress and sound principles of govern
lent, and is full of vitality, determi7 (
alton and growing power, And be-
lg the party of intelligence and pro- !
ress, it knows the importance of cir
ulating good newspapers. Do our
lemocratic contemporaries compre-
end the situation :? -A-A.ef1

The hypocritical, deceitful, lying Abo-
llitionists 1--WE mean ghe lower STRATA have
not thus far been successful in persuading
any Democrat to bolt the party nominees
of the primary election of Saturday, al
though they are very sweet in their
sympathies. Those with whom they are
dealing are not to becaug ht by such bait
as they use-they know that their profess
sions of friendship are all hollow-that
they only hope TO kindle and foster feel
ing of dissatisfaction for the purpose Of
promoting their own selfish ends for the
purpose of defeating the Democracy and
sneeking into power upon our discussions.
Be warned against them, friends!- Yin.

yr The party organ here did not talk
SO about boilers at our last cleo
ton. They were patted on the back
most lovingly and told that they were
sensible and clever, fellows, and that
for city Offices the best men should be
chosen, and twas the duty of every
coed citizenltoshelp break down party
cliques and smash party machinery.
But, it seems, aediferent feeling pre-
walls IN Vincennes, where the Confed-
crates are ina majority. and the editor
of their organ is candidate for
Mayor. We don't blame the SIN for
scorching the miserable factionists,
if by their contumacy they
epdanger its editors election. III m

An English noblemon has sus-
pended a musical bell on the neck
OF all his cows, each bell tuned to
different note of the scale, and
the whole ringing through several

he hears several notes in unison,
then slight discord, and then a
sweet harmony, all varied by dis

The @era1d,
AMERICAN BOYS.

Probably in every age since the
time Of poor Adam and EYES
trouble with their willful son the
world has been supposed to benear
its end on account of the naughti-
ness of boys. We confess that,
for ourselves, in moments of wrath
at the impish peryersity, or of sor-
row at the precocious wickedness
of noted specimens Of American
boyhood, we have sometimes been
tempted to thai supposition, and
certainly we could not much Won
der if Young America furnished
more food for the Prophets aveng-
ingbears than Young Israel supplied
Yet the world has continued to be,
and generation after generation has
risen from petticoats to jackets and
trousers, and from jackets and trous-
ers to coats and pantaloons, with
out any utter extinction Of the line
of masculine succession. That sue
cession will probably be kept up in
this hemisphere, and here, as of old,
the folly of youth will, in due time,
be subdued by the wisdom of age.
All the more earnestly, because of
our good hope for the ultimate wei
fare Of our country, we are dispo-
sed to look carefully and seriously
at the tendencies of our sons, de- !
sirous at once of discovering their
peculiar temptations and advanta-
ges.
Our daughters are constitutional
ally more marked by sensibility, and
our sons are more marked by wilful-
ness. The consequence is, that we
are more anxious what will happen
to our daughters, and what will hap !
pen from our sons-our daughters
sensitiveness exposing her to re
ceive harm, and the sons wilfulness
exposing him to do harm. We are
not wise to quarrel with nature, and
We must expect that boys will be
more noisy and nlischieyous than
girls; nay, we may count it a
good sign of lads force Of char
aeter if there is n good share of ag
gressive, fm-loving pluck in his
composition. Well managed, his
animal spirits will give him all the
more manly loyalty, and, when true
to the right cause, he will be all the
more true because so much living
sap has gone into the fruit Of his
obedience. Yet what is more sad
than force Of will perverted to base
uses, and the strength Of manhood
sunk into the service Of base lusts
or ilendish passions What is more
sad than the sight presented every
day in our streets-the scores of
precocious manikins with the worst
vices Of men written over features
almost infantile in their mold-boys
who are hardly old enough to be be-
yond their mothers watch now
staggering with all the airs Of ex-
perienced bloods, and polluting the t
air Of Gods heaven with the vo-
cabulary ofhell? Where such mon t
strous excesses are not found, how
frequent is the utter repudiation Of
the proper age and authority! How
many STRIPPING among us seems to
think it the very first proof Of man
ly spirit to break the Divine law
which gives the home its blessed
ness and the State its security, and
to be proud to show that he is above
all such obsolete notions as giving
honor to father or mother - Samu. !

A Word to the Negroes.

There has been great war between the
'-hites on this Continent. They have lost,
and yoa alone haze gained But, once upon
time, the Indians, over thousand to one,
made war upon the whites, and where are
they? There are $4,000. O0o whites in the
U. s., to 100000 negroes. IF you go for
the Radicals our people are down on your; if
you go Conservative the Radicals will turn
against you, and both can Go you immense
harm. You are between the upper and meth
er milestone" and we tell you, honestly, there
is but one course to pursue. It is the same
you pursued during the war. Work and let
white people settle this question-7on't uote
ataU. The only escape for you, from the fate
Of the Indian, is to make yourselves the best
body Of laborcrs in the aorld, and to avoid, Jy
not uoting, a conflict with any portion of the
whites at present The s'blue veins" willrule,
and your policy is to make enemies of no par
ty, for, be the result as it may, you are bound
to suffer. Hold on to your Registration, but
don't vote. The fruit is very tempting, but
you had better throw yourself on the generosi-
ty Of the Whites and wait until it is fully ripe.

EA| SINGLE MACHINE Patented 1865.
The Rochester Riving Shaving and . onting
Single Machine, will rive shave and Joint 25, COO
Shingles in one day Of ten hours! 1t will work
all timbers that can be worked by hand, and much
that cannot of hard or soft timber, and will make
a superior single. Three horst power will drive
it to itsutmos capacity, and is very easily applied
1t is substantially built, made of iron and steel;
will occupy the ground room of thirty inches
wide by ten feet long, and weighs 1900 lbs The
Shingles made by this machine are similar and
better than those made by hand. The first reyo-
tuition rives shihgle; the second revolution rives
second single and shaves the first single on
the top side; the third revolution rives third
single, shaves. a second on the top and the first
on the bottom the fourth revolution rives
fourth, shayes third on top, the second Oh bot
tom, and the first single is jointed, and that fin
lshes, 1t complete. Every revolution afterwards
throws out perfect shingle at the rate of SIXTY
per minute. No Shingle machine brought before
the public equals this, nor can any be made more
available for this purpose at as LITTLE cost. The
high price of labor, the want of competent work
men, and the great labor-saving capacity of this
machine, will enable builders and others to sup
ply themselves with superior shingle at lower
cost, than by any other machine. The expense
Of running this machine is at least $2O 600 less,
per annum than the most popular machine The
purchase of saws and files; the power ard time
required in running saving machine, far ez-
ceeds this machine. This machine can be run
two days by grinding the knives once which NAV
be done in half an hour, and then it is ready for
the next $4,000 shingles. The patent right of
these machines and their use is for SALE in all the
unsold territory of the United States either by
single counties or States, ON liberal terms.
