WAR MEETING!
We arc authorized to announce that
General Carrington will apeak at Haub
stadt on Tuesday, November '2Uh, and
will canvass Knox, Gibson and Vander.
burh counties to aid enlistments.
PROCLAMATION.
By the Governor of Indiana.
The President of the United States,
having designated Thursday, the 2Gth
day of November, instant, as a Day of
Tnanksgiving.
Therefore, I, Oliver P. Morton, Gov
ernor of Indiana, do hereby set apart
said day, and call upon the people of the
State to observe the same, in accordance
with the proclamation of the President.
Let the people thank and praise Al
mighty God for the many mercies lie
has shown ns daring the past year, and
pray him with humble hearts, to still pro
tect, guide and bless us and restore the
inestimable blessings of Unity and
Peace to our bleeding and suffering
country.
Given at the Executive Department,
Indianapolis, this 9th day of November,
A. 1 , 1863. Oliver P. Mokton.
The Heeling at llaubstadt.
Extensive preparations are beiug made
for a large war demonstration at Haub
stadt on Tuesday (to-morrow). The fill-
C. Railroad will take passengers at
half fare perhaps run an extra train.
The Crescent City and Princeton Bands
will be present to enliven the crowd with
their spirit-stirring music. General Car
rington will be on hand with one of his
best appeals, and everything promises
well for a pleasant time.
Ilanbstadt is a point convenient for the
citizens of Vanderburg, Gibson, Posey
and Warrick counties to meet together
and make arrangements for filling
up I
the quotas of those counties respectively f
by volunteering.
Time is rapidly slipping away. The
month of November is two thirds gone,
and soon December will be upon us.
olunteering is not progressing as rap
idly as time is flying, and unless a
greater effort is made to raise volun
teers, the draft will have to be called in
to complete our quota. One mere pull
and let it be a strong one.
' We learn from a private note, ad
dressed to a gentleman in our city, that
Gen. Carrington will certainly b present
at the meeting at Haubstadt on Tuesday,
to address the people. He will also be
in onr city on Tuesday night Arrange
ments ought to be made for htm to give
a another speech.
Dr. Stevenson's work, "Indiana's
Roll of Honor," promises to be one of
the most exciting and interesting books
O O j
ever published in this country. Every
Indiana family will of course subscribe
for one.
Soldiers D'Afriqce. Saturday last
we had the pleasure of seeing some (40)
forty recruits passing through our city for
Detroit, Michigan, for one of the color
ed regiments of that State. These men
were enlisted by Capt H. McClei
land, 1st Michigan Colored Regimei t
at points below here on the Kentucky
shore of the Ohio river, and consist of
men whose masters having deserted the
country, under whose protection they
had lived in peace and prosperity, will
now be compelled to accept the terms
proposed by the Government through the
very instrun ents to which they attribute
their grievances
n our last issue in speaking of
the recent tragedy, in connection with
the prompt manner in which the Post
Adjutant discharged his duty, we omit
ted to mention that he was aided in fer
reting out the murderer by our fellow
townsmen N. H. Stockwell and Captain
Gus. Lemcke, and that they were at
tracted by the noise in the saloon, which
led them to enter and ascertain the
cause of the disturbance. Much praise
is due these gentlemen in assisting to
bring to justice the culprit.
Incendiarism in Sullivan County
The Sullivan Democrat of the 19th says
on Tuesday night last the barn of Mr.
John McKee, who resides one mile north
of that place, was destroyed by fire, with
aTl its contents. At the time of the
burning there wore in the barn, an J the
atables connected with it, ten head of
horses, a cow, a fine Durham bull, four
hnndred bushels of corn, sixteen bushels
of wheat, several tons of hay, a wagon,
and all his farming implements, the
whole of which were entirely consumed.
The fire was discovered about 11 o'clock
at night, and must have been the work
-uf some- aendish incendiary.
the loss of property will no doubt ex
ceed $2,000, on which Mr. McKee had
an insurance to the amount of $1,200 in
the Lafayette Farmers and Merchants'
Insurance. Company

Mrs. Webb takes pleasure in an
nouncing to tbe public generally that
she has not sold out the Crescent Citj
Hotel, as reported, but is still carrying
on at the old stand, on Water, between
Main aud Locust streets, aud would still
solicit a share of the public patronage
A Monthly Charity.
A good and patriotic people are hereby
informed that an effort is about to be
made to raise funds with which to create
a sc?wol house for the beneGt of the
colored children in the city. For sever
al years a school has been conducted,
by a most worthy young lady, under the
auspices of the American Missionary
Society. Her praiseworthy efforts are
almost brought to an end, from the fact ;
that no room, other than one that is oc
cupied at the peril of health and life,
can be secured for the purposes of in
struction. Is it asking too much of the
citizena of Evansville to furnish at least
a building in which the children of a
long neglected race may meet to be in i
structed? They are too often charged I
with being ignorant and worthless. Has j
this not been because they have shared
M opportunities of proper education? j
The State nobly takes care of her white
children, but makes no provision for the
poor black?
Let Christians, then, and the patriotic
and humane, unite in making some pro
vision whereby the children of our col
ored people may be taught the rudiments
of knowledge, and the principles of vir
tue, industry and religion.
At a meeting of the ministers of the
city, held in the Library Room, on Sat
urday, Nov. J4tb, It was resolved to com
mend this to the consideration of the
people of Evansville, and particularly to
the members of our different churches.
Will the people respond to a call which
will speedily be made upon their liber
ality?
By order of the ministerial meeting.

A CARD.
Evavsville, Nov. 20th, 18G3.
I wish to say to those who are pre
paring to put up this dirty canal ice, for
the purpose of supplying the retail trade
next season, if they will call upon me I
can convince them that the arrange
ments I have made for the coming season
will enable me to supply them upon 3itch
terms, with a good article, that they will
do better to buy of me at prices that 1
can give theui, than to bother putting up
such stulf as is usually saved at this
place. Edward Ikgle.
Ladies, Attention. Mrs. McCormick
wishes to inform the Ladies of Evans
ville and vicinity that she is selling out
her entire stock at cost, consisting of
Millinery Goods, Hosiery, Glove3 and
Notions, as she is obliged to give up her
old stand, No. 37 Main street, in order
to make room for a new building.
A Nice Time Expected. We learn
that our enterprising fellow-citizen, C-
R. Bemeiit, is remodling the old Mason-
ic Hall, on the corner of Main and First
streets, and are pleased further to learn
that the ladies of First (OS.) Preaby
terian Church propose to inaugurate it
on Friday night next by a grand prome
nade concert, for the benefit of their
church. The well established energy,
good taste, and perseverance gives a.--surntice
that the affair will be a splendid
one, and as the cause is a good one, we
huzzard nothing in predicting that it will
be a complete success.

No fears for Bnrnilde's Safety
Washington Meade Occupies Itladl.
on Court House Ilia Cavalry in
Lee's Rear Banks' Operations on
tbe Rio Grande.
New York, November 21. The Post's
Washington letter says the War Depart
ment has advices from Burnside up to
to day, and it is stated in official corres
pondence that no fears for his safety
have been entertained.
The Army of the Potomac is still
moving southward. It occupies Madison
Court House to-day, which looks very
much like a flank movement Pontoons
went down last night Our cavalry has
already, it is said, got in the rear of
Lee's forces. No doubts are felt in the
minds of intelligent men as to the result
ot an engagement between Meade and
Lee.
There was anxiety at the War Depart
ment respecting Burnside, but it is no
longer felt
'lhe Post's New Orleans correspond
ent says: Gen. Banks entered Browns
ville on the 5th with a small force. The
rebels had burned the old United States
barracks there, a large amount of prop
erty, and part of the town, plundered
all they could, and fled on the 4th. Our
prospects are good, but Banks needs 10.-
OOO o- 1-3,000 ro-o troopo.
The people are generally favorable to
the Union.
The Mexican General, Cobaz, who
was a refugee in Brownsville on the 6th,
was called upon by the civil a.tthorities
to organize the citizens to arrest the
plundering of the rebels, and to put out
the conflagration.
After the entrance of General Banks,
with his force, he advanced to Matamo
ras and drove out Ruiz, who was favor
able to us, and sought refuge in Browns
ville, and Cabaz hoisted the French
flag.
On the following day Cabaz was at
tacked by Ruiz's party and shot
Ruiz was again reinstated, but was
agaiu ferced to flee by Cortemas, who is
sued a pronunciamento, re-establishing
the Mexican Constitution of 1857.
Governor Fermo, of Juarez's Govern
ment, is to take command.
Ruis is again in Brownsville.
Cortemas has shown his friendship for
the Uniou in loaning three very valuable
steamers to General Banks.
On the night of the 7th another invo
lution was expected in Matamoras, but
it failed to come off.
Part of our forces were kept in readi
ness that night to cross and protect
the American consul's residence.
BY LAST NIGHT'S MAIL.
Sucessful Efforts of Gov. Morton to
Relieve onr Richmond Prisoners.
Washington, Nov. 29. Gov. Morton
has just completed arrangements through
our agent, J. W. Monfort, for the speedy
find safe distribution of supplies to Indi
ana soldiers in rebel prisons. A letter
from Robert Ould, rebel Commissioner,
says:
" Any provisions you may send to
City Point for Indiana prisoners will be
faithfully distributed, under such regula
tions as our prison authorities may fur
nish, such regulations relating solely to
the benefit of the prisoners. The provis
ions can be sent to my care or that of
Brig. Gen. Wilder. We have now begun
scattering our prisoners over the coun
try, owing to the refusal or tne r ederal
authorities to make exchange. This
action will alone be good reason for
not directing your provisions to any
one of your officers.
Signed. Rob't Oci.d."
The great point gained in this arrange
ment will be understood at once, and now
the friends may rest content in the
knowledge that these prisoners will be
well supplied with every Heedful comfort.
R R. S.
From Washington.
Washington, Nov. 20. The Star of
this evening says, we learn through re
cent correspondence up to the 17th,
from Richmond, between Robert Ould,
the rebel exchange commissioner, and
General Meredith, which has reached
this city, that the rebel authorities are
faithfully executing their promise to
give prisoners in their hands the food
and everything our Government had for
warded to Richmond.
Our hospital department here, under
Acting Surgeon Burns, has come for
ward to add medicine to the stores thus
furnished to our suffering heroes in
Richmond by the Government
The rebel authorities will not permit
our viovernment agents to accompany
the goods within their lines, substituting
rebel commissaries in their stead where
the flag of truce boats meet.
Washington, Nov. 20. The rebel au
thorities, in correspondence with our own
at Fortress Monroe, deny that they are
now treating Captains rlynn and Saw
yer in any way dinerent irom any other
Union prisoners held in Richmond, ex
cept that they are kept separate from
their companions.

LINIMENT.
DR. J. WOODRUFF'S
ENGLISH
HORSE IINIMENT,
Mannlaciured by
LEICH & OARLSTjEDT,
Wholesale Druggists,
EVANSVILLE, IND.
THIS LINIMENT HAS BEEN PRESCRIBED
by DR. JtiSEPH WOODRUFF iu a prattice
of some twenty years for
Bheumatism,
Bruises,
Sprains,
Ulcerous Sores,
Scratches,
Wounds,
Cracked Heels,
Founders, &c,
With the most unparalleled success, effecting
cures in a number of cases where other remedies
utterly failed. It it also the best Liniment for
the human body ever discoved, having cored per
sons who have been confined to their beds by the
most agonizing pains of Rhenmatism, Ac, in
some cases as long as three years.
Wo do not propose, like to many proprietors of
Patent Medicines to gain the favor of the pnblic
by publishing tbe certificates of persons who
perhaps never have existed or whose resi
dences, are thousands of mil.-s distant from the
lustiufactnrer, but feel confident the Liniment
will speak for Itself. We would refer to the fol
lowing well known citizens and others, who have
used the Liniment and are acquainted with it
virtues :
Setchell A Bowles, Ed. Degarino,
Mrs. Degarmo, Solomon Kah,
Henry Dodenhoff, Ronald Fisher,
Joseph Kahn, -,,., StoL-lunou,
Mrs. Ed. Bowles, Col. Kheinlander.
John Hewson,
We could add hundreds of others, but believe
the abovo to be sufficient.
The money will be refunded in all cases where
the Liniment does not give satisfaction.
Price 25 cents per bottle. For sale by
