CARMI, ILL.,, Jan. 18th, 1869.
Editors Journals:
Z A charter has been introduced in
the Illinois Legislature to incorporate
the Evansville and Southern Hi
nois Railroad Company. This pro-
posed road passes lin this Statc,)
through the counties of White, Ham
iIton, Jefferson, Washington and st.
Clair to East st. Louis. At Carmi,
this route will cross the Vincennes
and Cairo Railroad, now in process
of construction.
The attention of the people of
Evansville is called to this enterprise.
as ShawneetoWn is doing every thing
to get the road to that point instead
of your city. The charter named will
undoubtedly become law, and it is
desirable that corresponding char
ter should be obtained from Indiana.
A glance at the map will show that a
direct line of railroad communication
between. gives to Evansville the entire
trade of Southern Illinois.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. IL.
Editors Journal:
Quarterly meetings were held in
the various Methodist Episcopal
Churches in the city last Sunday. A
protracted meeting has been in pro-
gress at Asbury Chapel for more than
a week, and during that time there
have been a large number of CONVEX
sions and accessions to the Church,
Rev. B. Il. Gillett, Pastor in charge.
is laboring earnestly for the cause.
and the Church is prospecting under
his pastoral care. On Sunday last
Rev. B. E. Rollins, Presiding Ell
der, preached an earnest and
forcible sermon at Wesley Chapel. and
at night Rev. @. N. Sims occupied the
pulpit. Mr.. Sims is one of the most
popular pulpit orators in this oity.
and his church is always filed to its
capacity, when he occupies the pulpit.
There is something so peculiarly i'm
pressive In his MANNER that whoever
hears him once must hear HIM again.
The earnestness with which he treats
his subject, convinces you that his
whole mind and soul are In the cause.
and it ELECTS the undivided and most
careful attention of his congregation.
Graceful, easy and natural in the pull
pit, enunciation clear and distinct,
words well chosen and fitly spoken,
with the impression firmly fixed in
the mind that a man chosen by God
Himself is speaking, make his sermons
the most impressive. While his elo-
quence Is not. perhaps, of the highest
order, yet 1t is of that kind which will
touch the heart and inspire the soul
with hope. His sermons, prayers and
lectures, are always compact and never
lengthy. An anecdote is told of a
minister East, who. after having dis
coursed his congregation for one
hour and a half, came to q slight

THE INSANE ASYLUM.
The Insane AsrI lum, near this city,
now contains three hundred and
tnirty inmates, very large number
OF "hon are convalescent, and some
OF whom you would not know
were lnsa ne - acting and talking
quite as rational as any one. The
youhgest patient is boy only four
teen years of age. It was with the
nope of seeing these unfortunate be-
lDgs at religious service that / visited
that Institution on Sunday last, but L
was disappointed. 1t is stated, how
ever, by those who have attended, and
by the Superintendent, that during
the devotional exercises those who In
their wards are constantly talking and
making other exhibitions of their in
sanity, observe the most profound ST.
lenee, and that were you not told you
| were Ia n congregation of maniacs,
you would not discover It, In nearly
all the wards pictures are hung on the
| Walls-some Of familiar household
scenes, others of men, birds, flowers.
&c. On inquiriDg of the Superin-
tendent If the inmates did not de-
face and destroy them some
times, an old grey-headed man
stepped forward and quickly answer
ed, in piteous tones, No, no, we
would not destroy one of them, would
we?' Poor unfortunatel Doubtless
some one of those pictures reminded
him of scenes in his rational days.
One girl, from Spencer County, who
was told that some one wanted to see
her. stepped quickly out Of her room.
Being informed that an acquaintance
had inquired after her health, her
eyes sparkled with delight. why"
said she, /" do you know him?" Being
answered in the affirmative, she re-
| piled: Tell him that / am doing
we'll, but | am so home-sick 1t has
been SO long since | was at home, and
; there are so many friends there

| deranged, home and friends were
: still dear to her. The north wing

/ ment over the old portion of the
building, and when the necessary ap.
/ preparations for its completion shall
have been made, the work will at once
! be pushed forward with Vigor. Their
} | it will be capable of accommodating
about FIVE hundred inmates. Some
' time since in the chapel, as a mean:
! of diversion, an effort was made to
! produce, by magic lantern. pictures
on the wall. but the gas which haC
, been conveyed from the city Ia a bag
/ unfortunately took fire, and produced
a scene of Understandable confusion
among the insane: Since that time
; such means of diversion have MOI
been employed. The experiment
f proved a very dangerous one.

Sulphur Springs Well.

We take the following from the Paris
Intelligencer, of the 10th inst:
On last Saturday, the 3D., we had the
pleasure of visiting these valuable
Springs. Early in the day quite an i'm
mense crowd had gathered there, from
various portions of the county, estimated
at about 1900 persons. Several emil
nent gentlemen from distance were ex-
pected TO be present and deliver ad-
dresses on the occasion, but from some
unknown cause none arrived. The
people were determined to hear some
body speak, and after many fruitless
efforts, at last succeeded in getting Coils.
Lilley and Lannom and ". r. Handy
on the speakers stand. They each in their
turn said they did not propose to make
speech and only arose to offer apollo
gies for not doing so, but as, such in the
language of Artemus Ward, the apollo
DIES "were success" Judge Swayne
has displayed great taste and energy in
arranging the grounds and buildings on
the premises. The main springs are
near half mile from the hotel, but by
means Of pipes, ETC., the water is con-
yeyed to the foot of the hill on which the
hotel is situated, about two hundred yards
distant Messrs. Carlton L Foster, the
managers, placed us under many obliga-
tons for their profuse hospitality. While
there we had the pleasure Of meeting DR..
Grant, an eminent chemist from Men,
phis. He says, after careful analysis,
that the medicinal properties Of this
water are equal, if not superior, to the
White Sulphur Springs of Virginia. The
red, white and black sulphur abound in
the greatest profusien.
