Baron Munchausen tells a story OF a

less, when 1t was hung before a hot fire,
the tunes, which had been frozen in,

present. just so the human system, su b.
jected to Injurious influences during the

the moist atmosphere of Spring develops
their fruits. Many Spring diseases are the

Railroads and civ Finances. =

Evansville must build railroads
East and West, if she is to prosper
and increase Cowirr, FEB. 22f.
Very true. But it is easier said
than done. How much aid can the
City of Evansville give to railroad
enterprises, with continuation OF its
present financial policy? With-an
increase.of thirty three per cent. IN
the rate of taxation. andsof overFaty
Thousand Dollars en- the duplicate,
and all this resulting in IN increase
of the debt, in what temper will the
people meet the proposition to take a
half million dollars stock in railroads?
How can a corporation which issdriv-
ensby It's financial acknowledgements to
pay twenty-five and a half per cent
interest, afford to talk OF building
railroads East aud West, North and
South, on the grand scale contem
plated by the shrewd fnanciers whC
run our city Government? We badly
need more railroads, and We believe
the people are willing to bear thu
burdens oftaxation necessary to ac
complish the work. but. in the frs
place, and as an essential condition t
that desired end, they insist that th'
present incompetent city administra
ton. be thrown overheard.

KENTUCKY is preparing to receive
the traitor BRECKENRIDGE with open
arms. The proposition is to run him
for Governor. and the Louisville Cou-
rier wants it understood that
;f'The Radical organs may rest as
sured of one thing-they will have no
voice in deciding whether John G.
Breckenridge shall or shall not be
elected to Office in Kentucky. That
question the Kentucky Democracy,
consulting General Breckenridge, will
settle for themselves. They want no
Radical advice, they heed no Radical
threats or warnings. and they will toll
crate no Radical Obtrusions."

A SAN FRANCfsC0 letter gives an
alarming account of the ravages of
smallpox throughout the State. It
says the streets are filed with funer-
ais, and the grave digger has his
hands and graves full. In some. eases
burials are made by night. Despite
every precaution the contagion re
mains as deadly as ever, and though
1t can scarcely be said to be increas-
ing, its decline IS hardly preceptble.
All the pest houses are full. In1some
cases vaccination seems to have en-
tirely lost its power, and men, women
and children with vaccine scars on
their arms as large as a twentysshil Z
ling piece, have fallen victims to the
epidemic Whole families have died,
but the plague spot of the State thus
far has been the town of San Juan,
in Monterey County, some 1e0 miles
from San Francisco. Out of a popu-
alation Of / 900, 400 were taken down
with small -pox, and of these 400 per-
song, 160 died. "A e 1854

IT appears highly probable that the
Cornell University, at ithaca, New
York. is destined to be a prosperous
institution. Its income for the pres
eat year is upwards of $4,000. By
tire act Of incorporation the. whole
amount Of agricultural land scrip to
which the State was entitled for edu-
cationaf purposes under the act of
Congress was directed to be sold for
the benefit of the University. The
amount of scrip was between 900,0 600
and LOCO, 900 acres; it was all pur-
chased by Mr. CORNELL for about
100000. The entire title to this
property was offered to Mr.. CORNELL
for $4,000. He voluntarily offered
to purchase it and to turn over all the
profits to the benefit of the Univer-
sity. The profit ON this scrip viii, in
bis opinion, ultimately reach 1000,
900, every dollar of which will go into
the Cornell Endowment Fund. .
Phe amount permanently invested as
the gift of EZRA CORNELL, including
real estate, books and minerals, will
thus exceed 81. 500.00
