JULY II, HAWK-EYE AND TELEGRAPH. The Prohibitory Liquor Law For yesrs the friendsof lemperimw in tliW aud other States were not satisfied in •iktir e^ertkitis for tho suppression of the .S.fc :?fJ.,toxicating drinks, until thev ob iac passage of the most stringent iswi to tr^fect this object. Thej h»ve bat tlod manfully and won the victory ID al most every state where their forces were properly marshalled and they acted as one man. fv./ doubts and pT^n'jSticationB of the indif ferent, tho strenuous opposition of tho li quor vender interest, and the small but pi ratical Nebraska and whiskey army, Iowa has been placed in tha frjnt rank with those State* which have determined to ex terminate, if possible, the unclean thin^ altogether fro:n whhin their borders. The law, proclaiming freedom frotn the thral dom of Rum, Wiis ratified in April last k™, v ..... the people for whose beapSt it-frs^aSScd. Suprising as it may appear to the reflect ive mind or the true lover of liberty in its largest sense—it has been suffered to fall almost still born among the laws of the Innd, instead of being elevated to, and placed ou the highest pillars of our po litical fabric. A law that allows, we might say which GIVES liberty to the soul an 1 freedom to the conscience to all within its influence—a law which has been de clared by its advocates equal, if not supe rior in its consequences to that celebrated act which made as free to govern ourselves, and which we commemorate this day—one which should receive more consideration from those who conceived it and brought it into life. It should have been welcom ed by the people with greater rejoicings than those which herald the birth of an heir to a throne. It seems to us that there is a great falling off of patriotism and love to his fellow man in the fathers and sup porters of this law, when they fail to ac knowledge its paternity and strive to in fuse that life into it which they promised should effect such wonderful and benefi cial results. Would uot this have been a day above all others to have sealed their sanction to its enactments, and given to it the paternal blessing. But where are its bold champions now—when the infant needs the fostering care of good nursing fathers an mothers? Is it to be suppo sed that the infant can walk ere it i.s sin cumbered even of its swaddling clothes? Perhaps they are ashamed of their off spring. If so, come out and acknowl edge it at once, and admit that you have brought into existence that which you can not support. We are not inimical to the law^-on the contrary we gave it our hearty support and shall continue to do so, maugre its luke warm and we fear we shall have to add, its hypocritical friends. But let these re marks sulfice for the present, which were suggested from the disgraceful scenes be fore us, daily and hourly enacted in as many beer and grogshops as blotted the fair fame and good morals of our city be fore the law went into force. It should be carried out or repealed—and the result de pends altogether upon those who success fully have carried it thus far. We prefer and shall advocate the former, but wher ever the fault lies, if the latter should prove necessary, we sh.ll not fail to expose the reasoiis. More anort. An article is going the rounds of tho newspapers, showiug that in the last class of West Point graduates, the South ern States had not their proper quota of Students, and the pro-slavery papers all over, arc greedily quoting the article as showing an instance in which the South has not its share of favors. The facts in the case take the wind out of the sails of these slavery apologists, and should raise a blush upon the checks of our southern neighbors. Ou the entrance of the class, the South had its proper number, but only five from the slave States could keep up with the "Northern boys," so that all the Slave States together, graduated only one more than little Massachusetts. The State of New York graduated "two more than the entire slave States. Such facts show the influence of the peculiar institu tion and need no comment. GOVERNOR OF ILLINOIS.—At alatemil try celebration in Chicago 111., Col. WM. A. RICHARDSON was proposed as the Dem cratic candidate for Governor of Illiuois, at the nest election. A NATURAL CHANGE.—The course of trade mentioned in the following extract from the Chicago Press, appears singular euough to those on the Mississippi who have been dependent upon this river for all their trade with the South and East. This noble old river seems to have caved in somewhere, perhaps dying of chagrin that it is not used more than it is. Cer tainly it is not so useful as it once was, and people are ceasiag to rely upon it. We respect it for what it has done, and for the good it may do yet, perhaps, but the day we fear is very remote, ltead the follow ing and reflect. Railroads now appear, commercially speaking to be our only salva tion "We learn by telegraph that there was ten feet of water, in the Illinois at La Salle on Saturday morning. Heavy lots of freight were arriving from St. Louis ior Galena and St. Paul. In this latter fact we have an illustration of the position which we assumed iu a recent article, that railroads would have the preference o A O V U K A I O I I S S E W S I E A I U E A i i U E Statistics of Minnesota.

Gustin and Sarah Williams. The woman was of doubtful virtue, and in one of tha letters of tho youn., man, dated New York, he stales that fc had boon turnjd from his father's hon-e bccniifc of tho bad company ho kept. Several of hi. lowers to the young woman were from Mn*c.itice, tu ibis State. The daughter of u siinguished Southern S4u-i:or, a guest nt the riuic of a family of the haul ton i a Beacon street, Host on, was detected theother day in having stolen jewelry to tlieam-'iuit of several hundred dollars. The lady is described as young asd charming. The r.dair wilt hushed up. The lainaiind has been grown in Virginia from seeds, and i.s highly sp ikcii of, as promising to be a valuable acquisition to our fruit trees, cspociall on the prairie lands of the West. Its growth is rap id, its appearance oniamcnt.il, and it is pcrfcct'y free from blight and fr.nn the depredations of insects.— Last season the trees in Virginia produced fruit as good as the unvoted. VERY PIICDRST.—The IC. N. Lodge in Wafren, R.T., after resolving to repudiate the Rhode TsJand platform, and to stick by the pro-slavery Philadelphia affair, very wisely, for the reputation of the mem bers, voted—to burn their records Cherries in the New York Market.—Tho yield of c'-erriea this season appears to be cnoiuions. One wholesale dealer, Mr. Hyler, received thirty thousand poundsconsistingof If'niteheart', lilackhearts, and DiUemnn?, during last night. This morning, Il'ash ington market, at the corner of Fulton and IF.st street^, w.u piled up six or eighj feet high with bask ets of fruit. The different qualities readily sold at four cento a ponnd wholesale- Hucksters in tho mar ket and grocers retail them at six ecnfs. A farniei frotu Long Island stated that he yesterday picked tive huudred poundsof chcrries fioin'one tree. Straw berries arc abundant to-day. Tho be-t quality sell.* atone shilling a howl.

The ordinary plantation looms are used in making cloth, and such very oidin.vy labor us that of Southern negroes is all that is employed in the bu siness. Thoclotl:is st.id to be beautiful.

SS?" A dispatch from Independence,Mo. to the St. Louis Republican, speaks of a personal rencontre, at Westport, between Gov. Reedcr and Mr. Stringfellow, in which the former got the worst of the bat tle. It docs not appear which of tho Stringfellows was concerned in this affair. ST. Lours AND VINCEN.NES.—The St. Louis Intelligencer of the 30th ult., says that the road between lllinoistown and V'incennes was to have been completed that day, and. that on the 3d iust.,."a party of joyful citizens of Missouri and Illinois will pay a congratulatory visit to the State of Indiana—spend an hour or two iu Yin cennea and return to St Louis the same evening."

The water then on the 1st o* July was about as low as it is now.— A few days or week ^thereafter the river rose to a height that it has never reached since. The editor thinks, from this, there is some chance to hope for a rise now, but says that the rains which have fallen there cannot be compared in quantity, with what fell then. The Red River of the North is higher than it has beou known for several years, and a flood is coming duwn from the head waters of the Missou ri, which may be some indication of what might be expected here.

The poetry of motion was, we thought, number of our readers, and Siy nil admired. It has been so often described that anything from us would be superfluous. Chicago is a gro:.t city—great in the magnitude of hor trade.. Lot her popula tion be what it may, she is aud will be, the great centre of trade for the products of the Northwest. In looking over ber pub lic aud private buildings, her immenso piles of brick and sttno, one finds many models of architectural beauty. Aud in looking at these exhibition of good taste, and wealth, and upon a city of such won derful growth, unprecedented business, and with such unbounded prospects for th 2 future, tho beholder cannot but regret that it sits like a ducks foot in tbe mud, without one single object for the eye to rest upon, above the dead level of the "plain." The eye seeks in every direc tion but there is nothing but bricks tower ing five or six stories high, steeples, tow ers and a wilderness of masts, but never a mountain, a hiir or even a hillock, to give beauty and diversity to the scenes The city looks busy, although it is un doubted!? tho dullest time in the whole sea son. The wharves and shipping and places continuous are thronged con stantly. All kinds of vessels are loading and unloading arriving and departing. It seemed to us as though the pivot bridges were opened and shut every five minutes. \nd when opened to allow the passage of vessels a single moment, it was really as tonishing to see. at the Clark st. bridge, the immense throng of carriages, drajs, wagons and pedestrians that would be stop ped in mid career iu their rapid movements. Five minutes or even three, would make an accumulation equal in numbers to an old fashioned regimental training. Equally lively is it about the railroads. The great tide of emigration flows throush Chicago. Her trains bring myriads of people from the cast, from the old world, in search of homes amid Western Prairies. Tt is rcMly astonishing to see the tide that sets daily through the Garden City, and throngs all her hotels,, streets and by ways. Having but little time we did not exam-' inc tbe shops and factories as we could have wished. W e looked far enough howev er to convince us that a good deal of manu f-cturingis done there, and much more than could have been cxpcctcd, considering the recent growth of the city.
