From the Proirie Flower.
A Legend of the Prairie.

BY NR. I. ALLISON.

The prairie. abounds iu legendary lore.
The Red man, whose joyful laughter or vies
torious war-shout once pealed far and free
over these vast plains with no unusil emit
ence or abrupt angle to echo them back
ngain, have gone to seek moro peaceful
homes beneath the Western Sun, leaving
nothing but the mossy hillocks which cover
tho remains of their ancestors and the light
of their legend to immortalize them. ‘These
vast solitudes, once pregnant with life and
thought and bolder action, gathered within
their precinct. all the softer dreams of un-
civilized love and all the glory of valorous
achievement; romantic exploits were told of,
in all the glowing imagory of the untaught
mind, and at the noon of night, the loved
one stole forth to meet her dusky hero in
their rude trysting bower. ‘The chase and
battle, the courtand camp, called forth the
courage of the young und the eloquence of
the aged—ainid the wild tumult of the con-
Mlct or the solemn stillness of the council,
there pulsated hearts teeming with the gen:
erous feelings of our nature and ardently
sighing for glorious distinction. But with
the flight of time their simple traditions are
all we have left to linger upon—their race is
nearly extinct—ard their records are to us
almost matters of history. While the In-
dian warrior basks in the presenco of the
Great Spirit, and his faithful dog bears him
company, let us remember that our actions
will soon live but in story and in song and

of power,
b w'er gave,

Within the prnirie is contained all the ele-
ments necessary to fanciful conception, and
yet, in all il characters there rests upon it
ihe sweetness of ropose. ‘There is sublimi-
ty inits immense extent, beauty in its blend-
ed coloring and melody in the whispering of
its breezes. In thesunlight’s gleam it seems
calm and peaceful as a summer’s morn, but
when the tempest wakes up in its wrath and
the angry cloud flies over it, tho scene is
fearfully terrific. Flowers and fruits there
grow in all the fertility of uncultivated lu:
uriunce, and bud, blossom and mature to sat-
isfy the appetite of the scented sir—the my:
terious formations of nature in all their de-
licate and exquisite arrangements abound in
leaflet and shrub and tothe enquiring student

“Evory bush and tuftedree,

Warbles sweet philoaaph;
Grandeur and loveliness aro admirnbly
combined in its appearance, and the liveliest
colours with which fancy would invest it
would fall far short of reality. Mon may
speculate ng to its formation, may assign. a
certain physical revolution as its cause, or
may assert that it was hurled forth from the
Hand of the Omnipotent in its present like,
hoss, yet their solutions have not been more
demonstrable than the legend of the savage,
whose Bohemoth ate the trees from its sur-
face to satisty the cravings of its nppetite.

Tt was at the conclusion of one of those
summers that had scaitered its richest pro~
fusion of flowers over the pririe—when the
grape turaed purple, hung clustering on the
wild vine and tho partridge was whistling to
the call of its fellow, tant n largo body of
Indian warriors assembled upon the cliff]
which overhung the smoothly flowing waters
of the Kickapoo. Inthe glen below all was
richness in vegetable, and gaiety ia animal
life—for the leaf of the poison oak, as it twin-
ed around tho tall cotton wood had arrayed
itsolf in scarlet drapery and the wind sigh-
ing throvgh the branches sung a pleasing
anthem tothe approach of winter—the turkey
frequently called the young to her protection
and tho jay made obsequious bows to the
visitants above. Judging from the counten-
ance, that sturdy band of the sons of tho
prairie had caught none of the inspiration of
nature. Of the finest mould of men, with
braced sinow and strung muscle, theirfiufis of
finaly dyed feathers waving’ gracefully, and
the evlored porcupine quill tastefully arranged
upon their persons, they were beautiful speci-
mens of that race, belore the “fire water”
had enervated tho elasticity of their bodies
and relaxed their strength of mind. Yet in
spite of that common trait in tho Indian
character, which prompts them to meet death
with the fortitude which will not suffer the
distortion of a muscular lino, Visible anxiety
was portrayed in their features and the eve
quickly turned when the squirrel snapped a
decayed branch in his passage from limb to
limb. Mental emotion may often be obsery-
ed in the movement of a finger and that
guurded education which taught thein to calm
the sterner passions and restrain them from
bursting into boisterous expression, could not
entirely hush the whisper or still the’slight
quivering of the arrows in their bands. ‘The
chief, taller than his fellows, after keenly
observing every thing around, prostrated
himself upon the ground and crept slowly to
the edge of the bluff, his followers watching
his actions with the gaze of a rattle-snake.
With his head over the edge of the cliff he
seemed intently bent upon catching some
sound, so absorbed was he; but failing in suc-
cess, lic clambered over its brow—-clinging by
hazel twig and underwood, he explored each
overhanging bank of earth and each tangled
thicket, and leaning forward until his body
appeared almost ata right angle with the
precipice, he peered through the obscurity of
leaf and vine. Gradually descending he ar~
rived ata point, the abruptsteepness of which
admitted of no fariher progress—for the
earth loose in its composition hind fallen away
leaving a projecting ledge that shelved in-
wardly along its whole extent. Despairing
of the accomplishment of his object, thechief
had turned his eye upwards to select route
for return, when his well trained ear caught
the rustle of withered herbage and sirultane-
ous with the moment bis eye rested upon the
spot—a warrior darted form the covert of a
capse with rapid strides; bounded across the
glen, supporting in his arms a female form,
interposed asa shield between hims:If and
destruction. Shrill rose the yell of that In-
dian chief, waking the echoes of the morn,
startling the deer from his lair and the
pheasant from its cover, when he saw the

form of Opinais and her lover. A hundred
arrows) twanged on the sfring—a hundred
arms fell powerless by the side; tho recollecs
tion of the benuty ond tho virtues and the
simplicity of Opinais, provented the fight of
the arrow and rendered her as invulnerable
as the Grecian warrior. Thechieftain’s first
impulse was to leap over that chasm and
pursue; but his inevitable fate gleamed upon
him, nature revolted and he looked placidly
on, his countenance assuming its wonted com-
posure. Opeetah, (for that was the unlet-
tered name of him who boré the maiden in
his arms) heeding not brako of brae, sprang
across the waters of the Kickapoo, clambered
up the steep ascent of tho opposite sido, rest-
ing not until he had attained its summit; for
he knew that a barricr, wide, as death, was
between his loved one and his enemy, and
that it was not far from thenoé to the lodges
of his people. Little necd hui he to fear the
anger of that chief; one glanceat his daugh=
ter rendered him softand pliant ns a cradled
child.

“There isa feeling of the heart,” part, of
the Nature of the Beity, pure and lovely,
which laughs at all the arbitrary distinctions
of society und scorns the pre-eminence of
rank and wealth. Within that bosom cover-
ed by the tawny skin of the Indian—there
js on intensity of expression none can mca~
sure, and ali his passions. cower before the
force of parental love. ‘Cho earliest smile
nnd word, the simplicity of infnatile prattle,
thoearnest sorrow atdoparture, and the bright
beam of the eye at the return, the kindness
and attention of maturer years, so clearly
evidencing that all the affections are centred
upon one object, bura into the breast an im-
pression which time and circumstances can-
not eradicate. History may produce evi~
dences of men of stern and rugged character,
bursting its bands and. despising its power;
yet the commentary often adds, that tho ef-
fort which sundered in twain the parent and
offspring, softencd and snapped the father's
own heart strings. Ithas no parallel save
in tho return of fondness by the child—that
fondness which hears sweet music in the ac-
cents of the mother, plants roses over hier
tomb and waters thom with tears—whose
memory harmonizes the feeling, regulates
the conduct and guides us

“When 6i
And leay

and yeara and manhood dee
us ACA mother’s knee.”

In such a mood was Waconsta that old
chief, witha tear trembling in his eye, as
Onsennt turned to survey the ‘scene, scorn
curling his lip and his em raised as if in’,
definiice of numbers, The recollections of
infancy hnd quickly gathered; pent up and
muffled by the walls of the chest, the breast
heaved and seomed almost swollen to burst-
ing by its increasing powor, until naturo has
tened to his reliel, and that evidence of
weakness so degrading to the Indian, stood
clear and limpid upon upon organ of sight.
“Will not Opinnis come back to the wigwam
of her father,” he asked in a faltering tone,
“the fire shall buen brightly and we will sing
the song of gladness at your return.” Wa-
cousta is like the stricken'deer, lone and des-
olate, or like the giarled onk, reft of its loaves
—he droops and will dio unless his daughter
returns to the lodges of her people. Her joy
§ life will,restore strength to she deer and re-
vive the decaying oak. ‘The voices of stran-
gers gratclharshly on my ear, and shall Wa-
cousta go tothe Great Spirit without a fare-
well from the mouth of Opinais? ‘Uhe spirit
of your mother beckons (0 you—come back,
my daughter, come.

Woman's power is in her tenrs but that
grief which cen subdue the harsher features
of man’s character and bow down his haugh-
ty soul beneath its weight, obiains the sym:
pathy of the young and the good, and the
scorn of the presumptuous... Despite the
ardency of that loye which she bore toward
tho warrior and which burned the more
vividly amudst the stern opposition of her
fathor, Opinais would have rushed to his
arms (for who could resist the imploring tone
of parevtal fondess?) had not Opectah
touched her upon the shoulders, and as. she
turned to look \ipon him, his countenance as-
atined that forbid ng aspect Which awed her
into subtnission, and clearly showed that he
was lord of tho willas well as of the heart.
As that delicate and gracefully formed girl
sat upon the bank, ber hair floating in the
wind and her wistful gaz dirccted towards
her father, and ns Opeetah stood beside her
with brawny-form and animated gesture, it
wasn picture worthy to be copied by the
artist of more romantic days. “You thought
to.entrap the wild wolf,” said-he, “but you
should have waited until his hoir became groy
and his teeth blunted like those of his broth-
er," and as he spoke he pointed toward Wa-
cousta. “Follow him to his Inir, he defies
your power and will not be ensnared.” He
again touched Opinais upon the shoulder, she
rose and followed him, aod they turned their
steps toward their encampment upen the
banks of the Indian. Wacousta gazed upon
the form of his lost daughter until it vanish
ed in the distance, and as hope expired, he
brushed the tear from his eye, wended his
way up the bank; placing himself at the
bead of his band, he uttered his mouosyl-
labic word of command, and slowly and
mournfully they walked toward their home,
high up upon the timbers of the Embarrass.

Opinais was the only child of Wacousta.
Having lost her mother in early infancy all
that affection which had been profusely lav~
ished upon the wife, wos poured forth with
redoubled jfroce upon the only living evi-
dence of existence she had left; he loved her
for her parent, he loved her for herself and
with the digaity ofan Indian chief, he loved

her because through her and her lineage
alone could that rudo but despotic honor
which he enjoyed be transmitted down to
succeeding generations. Brave as a lion and
senrrod in many a skirmish, Wacousta was
better pleased to observe the growing evi:
dences of his daughter's beauty, than to seo
the scalp of his foe or hear the song of
triumph. She literally grow up beneath his
eye, during waking hours she was constant
ly the subject of his direction nnd admira-
tion, and the theme of his dreams in sleep; to
her was given the Inst fareweil at departure,
and hers was the first joyous greeting upon
relurn. Plaiting the willow basket, paddling
the canoe or practising with the bow, he
would gaze upon the sparkling eye, the de

Hiente but finely moulded form, the ensy mo-
tion, a9 if he could not tire in the employ:
inent, and when her sonorous laugh rang’
through the forest, it found n rosponso in
the rapturous emotion of his own bosom—
Engaged in the domestic duties of the lodgo
or the wild sports of Indinn life.she lived and
loved her father, and incorporated into the
very being of Wacousta, she. xupidly passed
into womanhood.

Upon one of those winter ovenings that
chill the faculties of man into numbness, and
whilst her father was out upon a hunting ex-
cursionyan Indian, tall aod of commanding
‘Sppearance, hegged at the wigwam of Wa-
cousta, refreshmentand shelter for the night,
Opinais kaew that he belonged not to her
tribe; though the paint on his face was par-
tially washed off, and the plumed eal ip
ped with tho night dew, yet tho decorations
of his person differed from those which sho
had beon accustomed to see upon those with
whom she had daily intercourse, and in the
liniaments of his countenance she could ro-
cognize nothing with which she had been fa
miliar, Surrounded by friends, yet alone, ut
first her maiden coyness prompted ber tor
ject his request, but the emploring tone and
beseeching look defied denial and that geu
erosity which was characteristic of her peo-
ple and succored the fuinting warrior of|
other tribes, compolled' her to nequicsce in
the rites of hospitality. Hy ate of the hum-
ble but heart¥provision, and elept beneath
the roof of the wigWa ut with the rising
sin of the morn, he Seemed inclined to. lin
ger within its threshhold, and no evidence of
ulerity to go on his way could be perceived
atits setting. Surprised at tho unusal ap-
pearance of the stranger, but placing imp
cit confidence in the chieftain's daughter, the
inhabitnots, who remained, merely enquired
his tale, andin the evening he was made
welcome with the noise of the fenst, with
wassail and revelry. Afier the first meeting,
Opinais felt no unusual restraint in tho pre-
sence of Opeetnh, but was astonished to find
that whenever her stolen glance wns directed
towards him, it found an absorbing gaze riv-
etted upon her, but quickly turned away ot
the unoxpected mecting. He told her in a
musically toned voice that he had been com-
missioned to carry the emblem of war to a

trilie upon the waters of the Suagamo—that
unfortunate in obtatning food he had arrived,
famished aod weary, on his homeward way,
at the village of Wacoustn. Opinais soon
learned to look upon him without fear, to ad-
mire his manly form, to watch anxiously for
his coming—to listen with undivided atten-
tion tohis recital of feats of prowess; the
subdued whisper and the frequent blush soon
proclaimed (hit the beauty and the genius of
Opectah wos fast acquiring mastery over tho
the simple heart of the innocent maiden.—
Opinais knew but little of love—yet she had
heard of it in legend and confessed its power.
In'a few days her whole soul had become
cemented into thit of Opeetah and the most
distant allusion to separation, would cause
her head to droop and her usual vivacity to
rolapse into absolute melancholy. Whilst in
this condition of wild and romantic dream
iness, the form of her father would flit acro:
her mind and she feared that she “was tr
ding on forbidden ground:” she knew that he
would startlo with instinctive horror at the
Prospect of separation from his child, and
that he would never sanction her union with
one who boasted but of an humble station in
the rank of his tribe. Yet this thought made
her rely with more trembling confidence
upon tho faith of Opeetah, and his efforts
wero not required to be urduous or the time
long in persuading her to sever the bonds
which existed between herself and her peo-
pleto ly with him over the prairie, to be the
bride of his bosom, and the pride of his heart.
Wacousta returned to find his lodge ton-
aatless, and his hope crushed ia the bloom-
ing; the chango seared and withered the joy
of the chiefiain and all his mirth was chang-
ed into melancholy sadness.

Like the first impression of denth, the
commencement of anguish is overwhelming.
Tt admits no consolation, hears no soothin
voice, and heeds not the sympathetic tear:

“The sky, sen, nis, that lived and glowed,

With light and life and lovoliness;
suddenly lose the charms, and no beautiful
bird or painted Nower or chequered landscape,
but seemed tw mock at his phrenzy and exalt
over his blighted and ruined prospects. Denth
may gripe at bis victim, the hnir may grow
grey upowhis brow, the spheres may wheel
bringing successions of seascns, their fruits
and their frosts, but unconscious of the
change, his own woes are his only torture;

“Despair like a worm in the bud

Feedaon his pallid cheek,”

the tenement which encompasses his spirit
sioks beneath its ravages, and their dissolu-
tion is his final release.

Wacoustn’s desire was to regain his daugh-
ter and revenge himself upon her ‘betrothed.
Fora time it was evidenced in lonely wander
ings, and not a pnssing smile or recognizing
look could be observed to vary the monotony
of higfeutures. But he outlived its*weight,
and there returned the buoyancy of animn-
ted action; the council again listened to his
wild oratory, and their assembled wisdom
proposed plans-nd matured intriguo to ac-
complish their object. Yet no man dare
look within the precincts of his lodge; there
the heart of Wacousta retired within. itself,

and upon many a little altar, represented by
some favorite oroament of his daughter, he
worshipped her image. Fearful to encoun-
ter in open contest the band to which Opeetoh
belonged, in consequence of its superior
strength, he harrassed his foe with wile and
snare, the unsuccessful issue of which chill-
ed not his endeavours, his failing body dis-
covered the powerful agitation of his mind,
yet that ‘mind became more ardent and vig-
drous upon the ruin of its habitation.

Upon that morning on which the events
occurred that we have before described,
Opectah and Opinais impelled by its bracing
atmosphere, and feeling perfect security in
their uaion, had strayed too far beyond their
accustomed limits and were notawnkened to
their danger, until advised of its nlmost im-
mediate presence. ‘I'he party of Wacousta
had discovered on the moistened earth the

prospect of succvss, they endeavored to Re-
cure theie victim. The chief was at the heat
and spied-out their trail with the certainty of
a grevhound. Sheltered by: the covering of
the timbor and unseen, Opectah and his bride
oxerted every energy to outstrip their pure
suors; to arrest their course and impede their
Progress, they waded through tangled
thicket and traversed the course of the
streams; they chose the most abrupt ascent
of the ravine and were only checked in their
onward flight by the rugged cliff that over-
hung the Kickapoo. Walking backward in
the very foot-prints which they had made in
coming, until they had retraced somo. di
tance from the cliff, they sprang upon fallen
wood and lone rock, which left not a vestige
of their way, and thus traversing the bluff
by circuitous route, they found an cas y
descent to the glen below. ‘There Opinnis
Jay down in the arms of Opeetah to rest al=
ter their oflorts and rejaice in their salvation.

Cautiously and: silently the pursuers ex-
amined the crushed herbage, patiently they
turned the waters of the rivulet and slowly
they advanced step by step. until they arriv=
ed at the spot where the commencement of
our legend found them, ia tumultuavy, but
hushed excitement.

Some few months after the events occur-
red, which we bave before narrated, and
pon the same spot, (wo large bodies of war-
riors were engaged in fierce and deadly con-
flict. Thore was a whistle in the fight of
the arrow and an impulse given to the pas~
sage of the battle axe, which betokened the
keenest animosity, and as one and another of
the combatants rapidly fell, gliding form tree
to (ree, the remainder closed up the line and
tas furiously over the very from of

f prostrated brothers. ‘The ghastly con-
vulsion of death they stopped not to look
upon; neither intimidated or wavering, they
sought tho thickest of the fray nnd weleorned
the fate which mado them a victim. Opectah
and Wacousta were in advance of the others.
encouraging and animating their mien with
yell and prowess, and across the intervonin=
Space, their eyes gleamed hostility as if their
very bear could pierce into the inmost. re-
cesses of the bosom. Discouraged by his
want of success, the chief had senttho chal
lenge, and this was his-revengo, But dear.
ly was it bought—foras the impotious rush
began to fail and the deafening noise to
cease, all the nobly formed men, who on
that morn were fresh with strenath, lay
writhing or stiffened on tho ground, except
Opeetah on the one side, with Wacousin and
a companion as rivals. ‘The furmer reserv-
ng his strength for a desperate contest,
watched his adversaries and endeavored to
secure, by a bold manocuvre, victory over
both. Pretending to fly, he attempiod tho
movement of the last of tho Brothers of tho
Horatii: with lagging limb and distorted body,
asif wounded, he turned’ his back upon _his
old enemy; by detaching them in pursuit ho
supposed he could obtain. victory over each
in single attack. Emboldened by what he
conjectured fo be real fight, Wacousta, pres-
ed on, but his ardor, could notoutstrip the gon-
erous feeling of his follower, who rushed 0
the defence of his old chieftain. Opectah then
saw po resort but to continue, and away he
went, and away they followed down the easy
descent to the glen, across the waters of its
reain acd away along the upland ia the
direction that Openais and himselChad former-
ly fled fromthe mournful entreaties of her
father. In that race, with so important a
prize, they strained their swelling muscles
almost to bursting and thoy gained or lost dis-
tance, as hope or fear buoyed up or depres
sed the mind of Opectah. He frequeutly
turned to cateh the desired advantage; but
his pursuers seemed to anticipate his wish
and to feel that their united strength was ne~
cessary in the contest with so subtle a foe.—
He soon arrived near his wigwam, resolving
like'a tion at bay to defend it with every ¢
ertion, when he perceived the warrior a short
distance in advance of tho chioftain; gra:
ing his stone axe, ho poised it for n mon
with well directed aim it cleaved the nir and
the Indinn lay a bleeding corpse. Wacousta
enraged to desperation by the loss of his fol-
lower, and sensible that all was to be gained
by a well directed effort, hurled his own
with ns certain an nim, and Opecinh fell
sonseless at his thresho!dnnd at the feet of
Opinnis. Happy would it have been for the
chief had his blow ended here; but glancing
from the head of Opeetah it struck Opinais
upon the brenst, nnd Wacousta opened the
spring tu the life blood of his own daughter.
Rushing up to scalp his victim, and uncon=
scious of the havoc he had made, he had but
time to observe hor point toan infant that
Iny in the lodge and smile away into insen-
sibility. Fearfully distinct was his sorrow
—long and lingering the kiss which, kneel
ing, he imprinted upon her lips. Lifting
carefully the inanimate form of his daugh-
ter and the breathing one of her infant, he
passed out of the lodge, and though many
looked upon him, yet they heeded him not or
his burden, and arrested hitn notin his path,
On that evening the inhabitants of the
village were startled to perceive their old
chief approaching, bending beneath the
weight of a load, and to hear from within a
wrapper of the deer skin, a low and plaintive
wail. But when he unfolded the covering
thoy saw the form of their favorite Opinnis
and beside her an unweuned child, bearing
evidence of its mother upon the countenance,
the woman loudly wept and the old men
wrung their hands, and together, with shroud
ed face, they sat round that funeral pall, n-
til morning light broke in upon their reveries.
Then thoy built a pile near his lodge; wrap
ed in the attire of the dead, they \uid her on
it and around it they made her obsequics —
But it was long e’re the memory of her vir-
tues faded, and though with the recovery of
his daughter's bedy, Wacousta appeared par-
tially to have forgotton his woes, yet he was
accustomed daily to repair to the shrino which
encased her remains, long after they had
vanished by decomposition, and bitterly wail
over the fate which made the father the
avenger of his daughter. The women nour-
ished his grand-child with tenderness, and he
grew upto be a sprightly boy and a daring
chieftain. Wacousta was proud of his sue:
cessor, and when, afier he had scen the leaf

imprint of footsteps; with that engerness
which soon discovered that there was amon,
them those of a woman, and inspired by the

bud for many a summer, his soul longed to
view the Indians father,

from the lap of his progeny, to dwell with th
Great Spirit.

Ata respectable meeting of the Demo-
eratie citizens of Franklin county, Ulls., con-
vened pursuant to public notice nt the court
house in the town of Benton, on tho 20th of
November, 1841, the meeting was called to
order by the Hon. A.D. Dollins. Wheroup-
on; the Hon. B, Parrish was enlled to the
chair, and John Edgorloy appointed Secreta.
ry. Mr, Parrish explained the object of the
meeting ia a brief and lucid manner.

On motion of A.D. Dollins, that a com-
mittee of three be appointed by the chair to
draft rules expressive of the sense of this
niceting.

Whereupon the chnir appointed Messrs.
A.D. Dollins, Bonj. Smith, and Wilson A.
Ren, who after withdrawing for a few
utes returned the following resolutions, viz:

Resolved, ‘That in the recentacts of mod-
ern whiggory in tho late extra session of
Congress we manifestly see the finger marks
of oneient Federalism too plainly depicted.
The creation of a National debt and insatin-
Ule thirst for a National bank, with innumer-
able exclusive monopolies hns heon their
manifest policy from their earliest political
history. ‘The initiation and admission of
such principles und powers as tho saltled
policy of this Government has and over will

operate as a blighting mildew upon the pros-
perity of the country, and ultimately a sub-
version of our common liberties and free in~
titutions

Resolved, ‘Tat in the passage of the land

Uistribution bill, we see a manifest dispo
tion by the whig majority in Congress to do
the greatest injustice to the new States by
depriving them of the benefit of the late cen+
sus, while wo depreeate such policy odiously
unjust, Wringing from tho hands of the wes
terh settler his hard earnings to be distriba-
ted within the old States as bribes for partial
and local objects, while we believe such
policy in want for constitutional support.

it calmly went forth,

Resolved, That we most cordially approve
of the policy of n State Convention to nom=
innto candidates for Governor and Lieutens
ant Govornor, a3 the only plan to produce
harmony and concession in tho Democratic
ranks and that wo will most heartily support
the nominees.

Resoleed, That the chair appoint two suit-
able persons to attend the Convention at
Springticld on the 2d Monday in. December
next as delegates to said Convention with
pawer to fill such vacancies if necessary,

Resolved, That wo have undiminished con=
fence in the talents and integrity of A.W.
Snyder, of St. Clair county, and recommend
him to said Convention as a suitable candi-
date for Governor, and further recommend
our worthy friend and citizen, Braxton Pare
rish, usa suitable candidate for Lieutenant
Governor,

Resolved, That wo heartily disapprove of
the unceasing baok suspensions, ns being exe
tvemely unjust in principle, and long to seo
the time when these institutions shall bo re-
quired to conform to the just principles of
equity, order and morality, and. believe that
it devolves on the Democracy of this Union
(0 require such submission to the laws and
justice as early ns possible.

Mr. Mansfield offered the following resoy
lutions, vi

Resolved, That we have the most implicit
confidence in the doctrines taught by Wash-
ington, Jeficr-on, Jackson, nnd Van Buren,
and that we are more and more convinced of
the designs of the opposers of those doctrines

December 3, 1841.

Since our last many distinguished gentle-
men brave arrived at tho seat of Government:
imong which are Judge Pors, of the District
Court, Mr. Burrenriexp, U. S. District At
‘orney, and a large number of jurors from
Jifferent parts of the State attending the U-

. Court, which -commenced its session on
Monday last. Gen. Ewrne, Speaker of the
Mouse, arrived on Monday last, and is at the
American, Hop. S, BREESE, of the Supreme
Court, arrived on Tuesday, and is at thehouse
of Mr. Walters. Mr, R. Satu, Col, Hosp.
peY, and Mr, CuicKeRtna, of Madison, ore
atthe American. Dr. Berry, of Cairo, Mr.
AnNowp and Mr. Davis, of Chicago, are also
here, and put up al the American.

‘The reduced price of the State Re-
sister... Proposals to extend itssub-
scription.

We announced in our Jast that the sub-
scription price of this paper is REDUCED to
two dollars per annum, or one dollar for six
yuonths, payable in advance. This reduction
ig made in consequence of the hard times.—
We have thus reduced the paper 33 per cent;
wd unless we receive o corresponding in-
crease {o our subscription list, we shall be
considerably losers by the change. We ap-
peal to our Democratic friends throughout the
State to use their personal exertions in obtain
ing subscribers.

In fixing the price of the Stute Register at
$2 per annum, we have brought it down as
low as any political newspaper, of the same
size, published in the Union; while at the
same time the expense to us of publishing the
paper is 33 percent higher than it would be
if printed in one of the eastern States. ‘The
price of labor in the office, the price of paper,
ink, and other materials, is higher in Illinois
than in almost any other State in the Union.
We mention these facts for the purpose of,
demonstrating to our readers that the low
price ($2) to which we have now reduced the
paper, is in reality a lower price in Illinois,
than the same sum isin most of the other

States. Two dollars for a pnper in Tlinois is

about equal to $1.33 cents for « similar paper

published in Philadelphia or New York.

The approaching contest....1ts im-

portance to a free people.

We hopo our Democratic friends all over
the State will be active in extending the cir-
culation of the Register. Twenty-five new
subscribers in each county, would increase
our list Two THOUSAND. Such an increase
could not fail to advance the democratic
cause. The approaching contest, which is to
terminate in August next, is one on which
much depends. A Governor and Lieutenant
Governor are to be elected, to continue in of
fice for four years, Members of the Legisla-
ture are to be elected, on whom will devolve
the choice of a United States Senator as well
a5 the officers of State. It may be also that
members of Congress under the new ecnsus,
may yet have to be elected. ‘There is danger
that the giant Democracy of Illinois may be
cavght elumbering in the coming contest.
Relying upon their strength, like Sampson,
thecords of Federalism may bind their limbs
before they are aware that the enemy is upon
them.

Measures of the Federal party...
Brief summary thereof, and brief
examination of their character.
The People of Illinois, asa constituent part

of the Union, are now suffering under the
heavy burdens and tyrannical measures of
a Federal-whig administration. A heavy na-
tional debt has been fastened upon the coun~
try, and another still larger is threatened at
the next session of Congress. The proceeds
of the public domain have been squandered
among the States, Illinois receiving but one~
third of her just share; that is, “in proportion
to her federal representation in Congress,”
(three members) instead of in proportion to
her population. An increased tariff of duties
hos been levied, by which the tax on salt, su-
gar, molasses, &c. necessaries of life, have
been raised 20 per cent—an amount of toxa-
tion much larger, levied on the people of Iili-
nois, than the State receives from the distri-
bution law which we were told was to be
measure of relief. The same Federal party
also showed its willingness, at the last session
of Congress, in the House of Representatives,
to levy a tax on tea and coffee of 20 per cent:
the tax baving actually passed that body by
the votes of Federal members, but was defea
{ed in the Senate by the firm and determined
efforts of the democratic senators. A bank-
rupt Jaw has also been passed by the same
Federal party, to release from debt all that
class of Fedetalism engaged in speculation in
1836-7 and 8, and (o enable another closs of
the some party to wipe out the debts contrac-
ted in 1840 in laying pipes, building log co-
bins, attending parades, and furnishing all
the costly trappings displayed during that
year of humbug and delusion.

Present condition of the Country
under Federal mismanagement.
Federalism has been in power nearly a year,

‘and how stands the country? Nearly every

State filled with suspended Banks, whose cur-

rency is daily getting worse. Hardly mail

arrives, that does not bring us the news of a

Bank robbed by some of its own offices, or of

others broken down by mismanagement and

the corrupt conduct of their directors, The
public mind has become so familiarized with

crime, that nothing short of wilful murder cau |__|

arrest the attention of the by-stander. Direc-
tors and managers of banks appear now to
think, that they cannot fulfil public expecta

tution over which they hold sway. The Fede-
ral party are responsible for this state of public
degradation, The spirit of speculation, and
the grosping desire for MoNEY, MONEY, are
the sources from whence have flowed the
crimes of the age; and when, we ack, did a
Bank apply to a Legislative body forthe priv-
ilegeof refusing to pay her debts, that the
whole of the Federal members in that body
were not immediately found to bea standing
capital of wh6se vores the Bank was sure,
being already purchased, leaving on her hands
only the task of buying up the remaining
votes necessary to carry her demands into a
law?

The Federal remedy for the evils

of the times examined.

Dut a remedy for all these evils and crimes,
the Federal leaders tell us, will be found in a
United States Bank! How absurd is such a
declaration. Was the last U. S, Bank less
corrupt or less reckless in its management,
than the Stnte Banks are at the present day?
Did not the Inte U. S, Bank purchase Webb
& Noah of New York for $52,000, in order
to haye the support of the newspaper which
they conducted? Did not Mr. Biddle, the
President of that Bank, expend hundreds of
thousands of dollars in retaining lawyers and
orators of tke greatest eminence, and in fat-
tening newspaper editors with,heayy sums
for the printing of their speeches in behalf of
the Bank? Were there nut more than $200,-
000 loaned to members of Congress during
the session the charter of the Bank was re~
netved, the same session it received its veto
from the PATRIOT PRESIDENT, the incorrupt-
ible Jackson? Did not the managors of the
same Bank, after it was overthrown by Old
Hickory as a National institution, suy a con~
tinued existence from the Pennsylvania Legis-
Inture, by open bribery of some of ils mem-
bers? The same stockholders, the same di-
rectors, the same managers, the same capital,
was continned by a State law, under the saME
Name, “the United States Bank,” and we
were then told by Mr. Biddle that it was “the
same institution, only much stronger since
its disconnection from the General Govern-
ment.” WHERE Is THAT INSTITUTION Now?
But six years hove rolled away since this
boasted Regulator of the moneyed affairs of
the country opened on what was procounced
by its President a more useful career, and now
we behold it broken to atoms—its immense
capital plundered—its banking house occupied
as a Clay-club-room—its notes sunk to 20
cents on the dollar—and numberless widows
and orphans, the innocent owners of ils stock,
{turned out upon the world, from a condition
of competence ané comfort, to one of begea-
ry and houseless want

‘And this is the institution, the likeness of
which the Federal party passed through both
Houses of Congress at ils late session—this
is the institution which, since the veto, the
Federal party tell us we must again renew, in
order to restore confidence, reform the cur-
reney, and arrest the march of crime! As
well might we look for virtue in a pest-house—
sobriety in a groggery—morality atthe gamb-
Jing table—or religion in a club-room of infix

dels.

Fellow Democrats, throughout the State, it
is upon you the responsibility rests of keep-
ing Illinois free from the deadly embraces of
Federalism. We ask you to aid us in extend-
ing the circulation of the Register. Our whole
time and abilities shall be devoted to the great
cause of Democracy, which is that of equal
rights, truth and justice to all men.

The Cumberland road.--An imme-
diate appropriation therefor in-
dispensable.

‘Another session of Congress should not be
allowed to pass away without an ample ap-
propriation for this national work. The nig-
gardly sums which were penuriously and
grudgingly appropriated some yearsago to this
work have been stopped altogether for a year
or (wo past; and we thiuk the time has come
when western members should insist upon 6
more just disbursement of the public funds-
At the last session of Congress no less than
TWENTY-THREE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS Were
voted, in various ways, into the National Trea
sury; & how moch of this vast sum was appro
priated to be expended in Illinois? Not a dolar.
In fact the people of the Western States have,
year after year, o Witness nearly the whole
revenues of the Nation expended in the eas-
tern States. Hundreds of millions of dollars
have been thus expended, while the few thou-
sands laid out in the West have been most
grudgingly bestowed. After Congress as
sembles under the new census, the western
members may command what they now have
to beg for. An equalization of the expendi~
tures of the Government in the different States
is what the west must stand out for, Could
not arms ond ammunition be as well manufac-
tured in the West as in the East? Could not
naval stores be furnished cheaper? Couid
not even ships of war be built on the Missis-
sippi and towed down to the Gulf? ‘The peo-
ple of the west, while they pay the same
taxes as those of nny other part of the Uni~
ted States, and their country isannually drain-
ed by the payment of that tax, have hereto-
fore had none of the revenues of the Govern=
ment expended amongst them except the lit-
tle that has been laid out on the Cumberland
road, the small sum for the breakwater in the
Mississippi, and tho salaries given toa few
dandy Indian agents. [tis time this unjust sys-
tem of legislation was arrested, and we want
to see our members make the effort no
We have been led to these remarks by reading
the following in the last Vandalia Sentinel:

“Tue CumBertann Roap.—A_ public
meting was held in this place a short time
since, to urge upon Congress, through our
Senators and Representatives, the importance
of continuing and completing this great na-
tional work at ss early a day as: practicable.
We trust that the appeal now made for an act
of justice to the West, will not pass unheeded
by Congress. Whilst our citizens acquiesce
with pleasure in the large appropriations an~
ually made for the improvement of rivers ond
harbors in the East, and to foster the navy,

OLD HICKORY REVIVED. |

The subscribers propose to revive “OLD
Hickory” on the Ist day of February next,
tobe continned until the Ist Monday of Au-
gust ensuing, at the low price of 50 cents for
the whole term. A liberal deduction will be
made to persons subscribing for ten, twenty,
fifty, or more copies.

‘The “Old Hickory” proposed to be revived
will be conducted on the same principles as
the “Old Hickory” of 1840. Like its great
namesake, its principles are unchangeable.—
Iis object will be to sustain the great cause of
Democnacy. We ask a reflecting People,
now that reason and sober judgment have had
time todo their work, whether the “Old Hick-
ory” of 1840 was not as honest in its stote-
ments as it was bold and fearless in making
them? Were not the facts it developed unde
ninble? Were not the principles it maintain
ed, sound and pure? Have not the predictions
it made, of the fruits of Federal supremacy,
already come to pass, although but little more
than one year hias rolled over our heads since
they were made?

Who can forget the contest of 18407 Its
imposing processions—its innumerable collec-
tion of Jog cabins, flags, schooners, coon skins,
catchpenny devices, and painted patch work?
Who can forget the foul calumnies heaped up-
on the head of that firm and incorruptible
patriot, MARTIN VAN Buren, to blacken his
name and put cown his administration? Who
does not remember the PRoMIsESs Which the
Federal leaders, from the highest to the low-
est, made all over the Zcountry, of pETTER
vines? “Let us have CHANGE, CHANGE,”
said they, ‘and times will instantly grow bet~
ter,” or in the language of Mr. Clay himself,
Inhis speech at Hanover, July, 1840, “Elect
Gen. Harrison, AND CONFIDENCE WILL 1MME-
DIATELY REVIVE, credit will be restored, ac~
tive business will return, and PRICES OF
PRODUCTS WILL RISE, without refer-
ence to the measures of his administra
tion.”

‘This was the pledge, madeby the champion
leaders, of the Federal party. How miser-
ably has it been falsified, We know that his
satellites plead that he is relieved from the
pledge becouse his bank did not become a
Jaw; but this does not relieve him. The pledge
was, that prices were to rise ‘avithout refer-
ence to the measures of the administra-
tion.’ But does any rational man believe, for
‘a moment, that even If Mr. Clay’s bank had
become a law, it would have raised the price
of produce? No reflecting man believes such a
monstrous absurdity. Was produce high in
1820, "21, and 122, when the Inte U. S. Bank
was In full blast? No, it wasnot. Pork was
down to $1,00 per hundred, to which low
price it bids fair to fall again under this whig
administration, instead of rising in yalue as
federalism promised.

But the limits of this prospectus do not per-
mit us to dwell either upon the promises of
Federalism, or upon its measures since it has
risen (o power. Enough, that it has created a
National debt of twelve millions, and has
promised to swell it sixteen millions more—
enough, that it hns distributed the money of
the public treasury among the States, and tax-
ed the people to double the amount thus with-
drawn to make good the deficiency. Enough,
that it has proscribed honest men from office,
contrary to its pledges, and put in their places
pipe-layers, ruffians, and loafers—enough, that
it showed ils willingness to fasten on the coun-
try the most corrupt, unsafe, and despotic U-
S. Bank charter ever presented to an Ameri-
can Congress. Enough, that it has already
largely increased the annual expenditures of
the General Government, although its pledge
was that it would greatly dimish them

County Meetings.
Having received the proceedings of several
county meetings at a late hour, we have only
room to give a summary notice of them.

STEPHENSON CouNTY.—A meeting of the
democrats was held at the court house, in
Freeport, on Saturday 20th ult,—Mr. Wim.
Preston, presiding and Mr. G. Purington ac-
ting as secretary. Mr. G. Purington and Dr.
‘Thomas Vanvalzah, were unanimously. ap-
pointed delegates to the State Convention.
Boon Couxty.—A mass meeting of the
democratic party of this county was held on

T. Burgess, seeretary of the meeting.
Forron County.—At a Convention of the
democratic citizens of Fulton, on the 22d of

acted as secretary at the mecting.

Simple Sim, in his last paper, has the fol-

lowing sentence:
“The State Register still insists that the
Canal shall be made a political question.”

It is just as impossible for Sim to putout a
single number of the Journal. without having
at least one unqualified lie init, as it is for a
camel to go through the eye of a needle, as
the good book says. a

The State stock in the Bank.--Was
it sold, and for how much?

A friend has suggested to us that our par-
agraph of Inst week concerning the Bank
bonds, is calculated to mislead the public as
lo the ownership of those bonds, Our
readers are doubtless aware that the Bank
bonds are owned by the State Bank ond not
by the State of Ilinois. Jn a report pre-
sented to the Legislature in 1838, addressed
tothe Acditor, signed “Thomns Mathor and
Charles Oakley Fund Commissioners,” and

this inquiry is not what we are after now.

ing paragragh:

“The State Bank and the Ranke of Ilinois
having accepted the proposition of the Legis~
Jture for on increase of their capitals, the
amount directed to he invested in the stock of
those institutions was subscribed and paid to
the State Bank for the two thousand three
hundred and fifty-six shares, (wo hundred and
thirty-five thousand six hundred dollars; and
on account of the subscription to the Bank of
Illinois one hundred thousand dollars. Soon
after the adjournment of the special session of
the Legislature [of 1837] the Commissioners
proceeded to New York for the purpose of
effecting a lean for the payment of the re-
mainder of the subscription of the State to
the Banks, as well a for means for the prose-
cution of the several works of internal im-
provement. After advertising in several of
the newspapers of that city that bids would
be received for loans for both of these pur-
poses, they were much disappointed on the
arrival of the day: fixed for opening the bids
to find that po offers were made, ‘They had
hoped that, nowwithstanding other States had
failed to procure means for similar purposes,
our State might find more favor with capital-
ists, No disposition being manifested by them
to take our bonds, au amount sufficient to pay
the balance due and to become due to the
Banks was offered to those institutions at
par, viz: to the State Bank one thousand sev-
cn hundred and sixty-five bonds of S1000
each [$1,765,000] and to the Bank of Illinois
nine hundred bonds of the same denomina~
tion [$900,000.] Tuts OFFER As BEEN Ac-
CEPTED BY DOTH BANKS.”—Ste Senate
Documents of 1838-9.

Extract from the report of Thomas Math-
erand M. M. Rawlings, Fund Commis-
sioners, dated March 5, 1838.

“The balance due on the subscription of
stock to the State Bank and Bank of Ilinois
has been paid in bonds agreeably to the con~
tract heretofore reported. ‘The amount_ of
stock now owned by the State in the first
named institotion js two millions one hundred
thousand dollars, and in the latter one mil-
lion.’ —Sce same Documents.

‘The contract with the Banks, mentioned in
the above report, was made in the latter part
of 1837, and the bonds actually paid over at
that time Co the Banks by the Fund Commis-
sioners. What did the Banks do with these
bonds? It was obviously their policy to sell
them at once, for they could then be disposed
of at par without difficulty, and the proceeds
of the sale would at once place an actual cap-
ital in the vaults of both banks, and thus en-
able them to extend their business as was con-
templated by the Legislature. By examining
the statements of the Banks, afterwards made
to the Legislature, we can readily see how
long either Bank hicld on to the bonds. In
the statement of the condition of the Bank of
Illinois at Shawneetown made on the Ist day
of December, 1839, is the following item
among her means:

“llinois Bank and internal im~

provement stock, ‘$500,000.

From this itis evident that the Bank of Tlli-

nois had sold &500,000 of her bonds on the

Ist of December, 1838. In the statement of

the condition of the same bank dated 30th

November 1889, is the following:

(Qilinois internal improvement

bonds, $80,000.”

Tt thus appears that the Bank of Illinois had
sold all ber bonds at par more than two years
before, and then owned but $80,000 in bonds
of any sort.

Let us now examine the official statements
of the State Bank, in order tosee what beeome
of her bonds. We extract from the Answers
of Mr. Ripoxey, on behalf of the Bank, to
the investigating committee of both Houses,
Jon. 1840;

“Interrogatory 12, Give the committee a
general statement of the condition of the Bank
and each of its branches, every quarter since
the commencement of its operations, until (the
date of the forfeiture of the charter?”

Mr. Ridgley also states in the document
from which the above is extracted, in answer
tointerrogatory 20, that the amount of Bonk
and Internal Improvement stock owned by
the Bank was $1,765,000, and of Illinois and
Michigan canal bonds $699,750, which togeth-
er make the amount of State bonds owned by
the Bank in December, 1839, $2,464,750.

On the 42d page of the same report the
President aud Cashier of the State Bank, in
reply to an inquiry put by the committee,
says:

“In reply to these inquires, we state, that of
the subscription of $2,100,000 of the stock of
the Bank owned by the State the sum of|
$335,000 was paid into the Bank in cash, and
State stock tothe amount of $1,765,000 was
created to be sold to provide the means of
paying in that amount, From the report of
the Fund Commissioners on the subject, it ap-
pears that they took all of the usual means
to effect the sale of this stock but without suc-
cess; and that they afterwards offered it to the
Bank at par in payment of the State subscrip-
tion as above. This offer was accepted by
the Bank under the hope that the stock mar-
ket would speedily improve, and the stock
could be disposed of. It has consTANTLY
been held for sale evER since BY THE
AGENTS FOR THE BANK IN N. YORK,
who report that there never bas been a time

Resumption.

‘The Baltimore American, a whig paper,
intimates thata strenuous effort will be made
by the democratic party of Maryland to effect
a resumption of specie payments at the ap-
proaching session of the Legislature, and that
the whigs will remain pretty much passive in
the matter. =

‘The American declares that all parties are
in favor of resumption, and then goes on, like
a true whig, to argue with might and main in
opposition to it. Itis in favor of resumption

The progress of correct principles, within a
few years past, is really astovishing. The
doctrines which were formerly repudiated a3
“agrarian,” “destructive,” “Loco Foco” and|
“disorganizing,” are now urged with bold-
ness by those who were most lavish of their
abuse. Even the New York Commercial
Advertiser yields to the force of truth. That
paper in an article on tariffs, &e, recently
used the following language:

“We hope that a day will come, and that
we shall live to see it, when free trade shall
be the policy of every nation; when there
shall be no Custom-Houses, Ao restrictions,
no prohibitions, no duties even for revenue.
When the prejudices of the people inthis
country against direct taxation—the fairest,
the simplest; the most republican method of
raising reventie—shall have pussed away; aod
when commerce all over the world, shall be
regulated, not by what Governments, ot legis:
Jators, or combined interests, conceive to be
the policy of a nation, but what every indi-
vidual man engaged in commerce shall know,
by his own experience, to te that policy.”

down the salaries of all the officers in the

day the Ath instant:

Mr. Wm. McDonald moved the adoption
of the following preamble and resolutions,
which were adopted

Warneas, A series of articles have lately
appeared in’ tho Sinte Register, and more
recently in the Sangamo Journal, and in
hand-bill form, over the signature of Slasher~
gaff, unjustly denouncing in unmensured
torms a distinguished member of the Demo-
cratic party. Therefore,

Resolved, That this association have an
abiding confidence in the talents, political
integrity and democracy of Adam W. Sny-
der, of St. Clair county, and thnt we theres
foro request the delegates of the county of
Sangamon, in tho Democratic State Conven-
tion, to give him their support for the nom-
ination of Governor.

Resolved further, That we think the au-
thor of the communication printed at the
Sangamo Journal office in hand bill form,
signing himself “A friond of Sloshergaff,"”
has been actuated by the most unprincipled
motives, and that so farag the members of
this association are concerned he fails short
of his mark.

On motion of John 8. Bradford,

Resolved, That wo have full confidence in
tho patriotism and integrity of those com~
posing the Convention, recently appointed
in the several counties to meet at the seat of
Government, on the 2d Monday of this
month, for the purpose of nominating can-
didates for Governor and Lieutenant Gover-
por, and that we will abide the decision
of that Convention, and willendeayor as far
ns it lies in our power to procure the elec+

New Locomotive.—A mechnnic of Leip:
zig, named Lewis Gabriel Stochrer, hus eon-
structed an clectro magnetic locomotive of
seven horse power, which will draw. three
cars full of passengers. It cost abont $1000,
instead of 87500, the cost of common steam
locomotives, and the supply for it amounts
to not more than sixty cents por day. The
f 1 mado with
this locomotive on the railrond between Leip-
zig and Dresden, it is said, left nothing to be
desired.

Most Extraordinary case of Bigamy.—
The Milton (N. C.) Chronicle of the 13th inst.
gives the particulars of a very remarkable
case of bigamy, perpetrated by a villian in
that section of the country. It appears that
three years ago, a person named Edward C.
Boling, (son of the Rev. Mr. Boling, of the
Methodist Church, in Milton,) married an es-
timable young Jady there and lived with her
two years. A twelve month ago, he left home
for-the purpose of studying law in Greensbo-
rough. On his arrival in that place he repre
sented himself as Sidney 'T. Smith, of Ala-
bama, and exbibited certificates from influen-
tial geotlemen, stating that he was the son of
a wealthy planter in the north part of the
State. By this means he obtained large ered-
its, which he promised to pay os soom as he
could receive remittances from his father. He
subsequently ingratiated himself with an ac-
complished lady named Miss B—, of Guil-
ford county, the daughter of a gentleman of
respectability and property. “After the nup-
tials, he stated his disappointment at not re-
ceiving his expected remittances, and Induced
his father-in-law to endorse the payment of a
bond of $3,700 for the purchase of tract of
land from a Mr. Boling, his other self—who,
he stated, lived twenty miles distance. Smith
pretended to visit this Boling, and returned
with the story that the latter had defrauded
him of his money. During one of his visits
he staid eo long that his wife, Mrs. Smith,
grew uneasy, and proceeded in quest of him
to the houge of the Rev. Mr. Boling. No per-
son of the name of Smith was koown to the
family, but while there Mrs. Smith became
acquainted with Mrs. Boling, whose husband
was also absent, The two ladies remained
together several days, ond mutually expressed
anxiety for the return of their husbands, nev~
er dreaming that they were the wives of one
and the samme man{ Mrs Smith finally rev
turned home without hearing from her hus-
band. Smith arrived soon after her return;
told a smooth tale relative to his absence, ond
still complained of his treatinent from Boling.
The father of Smith in the meantime grew
exasperated with the alleged conduct of Bo-
ling, and proceeded to get redress from him
by law. Accordingly a writ of orrest was Is
sued, charging him with swindling Sidney T.
Smith. In the interim, this double persoa
attempted to get away, by stating that he was
going into Southampton county to collect
money due him; on his way thither, he stop-
ped at Yauceville, owing 10 the Jameness of
his horse, where he wos arrested as Boling, by
Col. Lea, the deputy sheriff. When the fath-
er-in-law came into court to appear against
the prisoner, he exclaimed, “My God! thal’s
the man who married my daughter.” |

‘The prisoner wos required to give bail in
the sum of $5,000 which, failing to do, he
was commmiticd to prison:

The most singular part of this extraordina-
ry story is, that the deception should have

At a meeting of the Demoeratic citize:
of Bond county, convened pursuant to public
notice at the court house in Greenville, on
Saturday, the 27th day of November, 1841.

Resolved, That the chair appoint five per-
sons to report a preamble and resolutions ex-
pressive of the sense of the meeting.

Whereupon, the chair appointed William
S. Wait, James Clanton, John Kirkendall,
James McGahey, and John Burchsted, said
comimnittee, who, after a short recess, reported
the following preamble and resolutions, viz:

Wurexas, Afier the reverses of the last
year, it isn subject of heartfelt rejoicing 10
every true democrat, to witness the great
and decided revolution which is taking place
throughout the Union in favor of sound prin
ciples. Our ears are grected with good news
from the North and South, from the East and
the West, giving ample demonstration that
the “sober second thought of the people”
will lead them back, and in good senson, to
their true friends and their best ynterests,
however widely they may, have been led
astray by false hopes, or idle fears. Now
York, the empire State, and good old Penne
sylvania, the key-stone of the Union, have
returned to their first love with stronger faith
than ever. Nor have they come alone, but
hand in hand with half their sister States.
‘The good work has sped from Maine to Geor-
gia, from the shores of the Chesapeake to

It continues to spread, and gather strength
in its progress.

It is estimated that in the States which
have recently held elections, there is a dem-
ccratic gain of more than one hundred aud

AWFUL CONFLAGRATION AT THE TOW-

ER OF LONDON.
Avevent which will be long remembered in
he annals of English history,and which may

be regarded in every respect nga truly na-

ional calamity, occurred on Sunday night,

Oct. 30, in the entire destruction, together

with its contents, of that magnificent build-
ing forming so prominent a feature in tho

far-famod Tower of London, denominated
Wo will not, however, dwell ugon this| The Grand Store-nouse and Armory,” con-
taining, in addition to an almost innumerable
quantity of trophies and other evidences of
British ‘glory, no less a number than 300,000

land of arms, &c. besides a vast quantity of

military carriages, bombs, and other spoils
of war captured in various parts of the
world.

The flames having once penetrated this hall,

no hope existed that any portion of it would
be saved, and the exertions of the firemen

are held up by any set of men, although in| were confined to the preservation of the sur-

the name of the whole people; but it will
probably be found on reflection, that when

At

no individual is so prominent as to command] this crisis the greatest apprehensions were

an universal preference, the plan of non
ating through a convention, where the di
ent sections of a State or a district are fair!
represented, will be as likely to insure good
talents and fitness for the public service as
any other, whilst it prevents much confaston
whichis apt to arise, when individuals start
in different quarters on their own respon-
siaility, and scour the country in quest of
yotes, whether suited or not for the office they
are seeking to fill. With this view of the
subject, it is therefore, : :
Resolved, As the sense of this meeting,
that the democratic piled of this county
hould be represented in the convention pro-
arail to bo old on the 2d Monday of De-
cember next at Springfield, to nominate can-
didates for the offices of Governor and lieu-
tenant Governor of this State.
Resolved, That the embarrassed situation
to which this State hns been reduced in ber
finances, his been brought upon us by indi
creet management, on the part of our pul
agents, and that especial vigilance is req
in the fature choice of such agents, not only
to guard against future disaster, but that
every mensure may be taken which a suita-
ble regard to the honor and interest of the
people will allow, to shield us from the con-

1n-| entertained for the sufoty of the crown jew-
els deposited in the regalia office, which
closely adjoins the eastern extremity of the
Grand Armoury, and the yeoman of the
guard, under the direction of their captain,

were deputed to undertake the removal.—

This service was safely performed, without
accident and tho whole of the valuables, in-
cluding the beautiful model of the White
Tower, were consigned to the care of the
governor and placed in the vaults boneath

his residence.

‘The heat from the burning pile had now
become so excessive that the firemen could
no longer act in the centre square, and it
was quile impossible to attempt to save any

portion of the arms, &c. contained in the

through the metropolis, and Tower-hill and

The fire was not subdued, however, until

near 5 o'clock, and the mass of ruins was

Many
rumors are in circulation as to the supposed

igin of the fre; but nothing is known at
present on which confidence can be placed.—
Over-heated flues are stated to have caused

the disaster, by some: while others attribute
it to the act of an incendivry. An inquiry

will be, no doubt set on foot by the Govern-

ment.

The Grand Armoury is one of the most

modern portions of the citadel, and was built

in the year 1688 by William and Mary. [tis

now totally destroyed, and presents a melan-
choly contrast to its former grandeur.

Tt would be utterly impossible to estimate

with any thing approaching to exactness the,
extent of loss the couutry will suffer by this
disastrous event, to say nothing of the nation-
al trophies which it is impracticable to re-
store; but there can be no doubt that the dam-
age sustained by the building, together with
the arms destroyed, cannot be replaced for
less than one million sterling.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.

About eleven o’clock on the night of the
80th, the eastern part of the metropolis was
thrown into utter consternation by a dreadful
fire breaking out tn the ancient tower of Lon-
don. It is said to have originated in the house
of the Paymaster Sergeant.

From tho London Morning Hernlil,

Throughout the whole of yesterday the
same species of excitement which has. pre-
vailed in the vicinity of the Tower of London
since the lamentable catastrophe of Saturday
night, continued without the slightest abate~
ment.

During the night of Monday, the Gre still
raged with unabated fury within the walls of |
the Armory, and several times the engines
were called into requisition, and threw power-
ful streams upon it. Throughout the entire
of yesterday morning it kept bursting forth
atintervals to such an alarming extent, that
large bodies of troops were called out to re~
lieve each other in working the engines, a la-
Bok in which they were occupied the whole

ay.

Shortly after 11 o'clock, Colonel Peel, the
Surveyor General, and other members of the
Board of Ordoauce, arrived at the Tower, and
at 12 o'clock an investigation was opened by
the Board in the Ordinance Office, on the
south side of the White Tower, and several
of the workmen, employed on Saturday last
in and about the Armory and Bowyer
Tower, where the fire first originated, under-
Went examination, but on (he application of
the raporter for admission to the inquiry, or
for permission (o make extracts from the de-
positions he received from Colonel Peel an
answer that the investigation going on was
strictly a private one, and that he could not
allow copies of the depositions to be taken.—
The Board broke up shortly before 4 o'clock
and in company with Colonel Aden they paid
a visit to the ruins of the Jewel office, &c.

About one o'clock, Lord Hill, the Coms
mander-in-chief, with Sir Barkeley Drum-
mond, and several other noblemen and gentle-
men, as also the Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs, &c,
arrived. After viewing the ruins the noble
lord had an interview with Major Birington,
and shortly after a company of the Royal Ar-
tillery were turned out actively engaged in
conveying barrels of gunpowder which had
been removed from the store underneath the
White Tower, to a place more remote from
the building, on Saturday night during the
raging of the flames. The removal of the
powder was deemed indispensable from the
extreme danger at one period on Saturday
night of the flames reaching the White Tow-
er. On Major Elrington being informed of
this, he gavedirections to Lieut. McBean, who
commanded the detachment of Royal Artille-
ry, to convey the powder to the waterside
magazine, situate under the battery facing the
Thames. | This was effected with great care,
and with no little dificulty, damp. blankets
being thrown over the barrels in order to se-
cure them from the burning embers flying
about in all directions. 400 barrels of pow-
der, and 200 boxes of grenades and all car-
tridges were thus in the first place removed
to the Magazine, but as it would not contain
the whole, a large quantity was for safely
thrown over the battlements into the moat.
During the night of Saturday and the
morning of Sunday, the provisions of the
Now Police Act, with regard to public hou-
ses, were entirely set nt defiance. Indeed
the doors of many public houses in the im-
mediate neighborhood of Tower-hill wore
broken open by the populace, who in many
instances obtained liquor almost by force.

‘The government authorities be ena-
bled to ascertain the whole amuunt of prop-
ty with the utmost accuracy, About three
weeks since an order was received by the
authorities in the Tower from the Board of
Ordinance, to take stock. ‘This ordor was
at once complied with, and the task was com-
pleted shortly before five o’clock on Saturday
afternoon, but five hours before the com-
mencement of the fire. ‘The result has been
placed in the hands of the Board, and will
no doubt greatly facilitate the investigation
with which they are proceeeding.

One of those curious coincidents which
occasionally occur, although in themselves
unimportant, is, that the pass word used on
tho night of the fire was the same as that of|
Moscow—and for some hours the fearful
scene which took pluce 1a the capital of Rus-
sia had every appearance of being realized
in London, for it appears that there were
400 boxes of gunpowder in the Magazine
attached tothe White ‘Tower, and had this
part unfortunately caught it would have boen
one of the most calamitous events that had
occurred in the history of our country.

Upwards of 100 officers and constables of |
the City Police force were actively engaged
during the fire at the Tower, and we regret
to hear that the surgeon reports six of them
as incapable of performing duty. Serjeant
Patterson dislocated his wrist, two constables
were injured in their eyes, and tho othor
three were suffering from very serious
colds.

THEYELECTION OF O’CONNELL AS LORD
MAYOR OF DUBLIN—HIS ADDRESS, &o

Mr, O'Connell said, that if he was elected,
no man should know what his polities were
in his capacity as Lord Mayor, but in his
private capacity he was and would continue
to be a Repealer, being of opinion that a re-
peal of the union would be the most benefi-
cial mensure that eould be passed for this
city and this country at large. Notwith-
stunding this if elected, his conduct should
be pune by the strictest impartiality to-
wards men of all shndes of polital opinion.
The Chair then put the question with
reference to Mr. O’Connell, anda large ina-
jority appeared in his favor. Ho was tho
declared duly elected. After making the
declaration provided by the state, Alderman
O'Connell ascended the chair as

LORD MAYOR OF DUBLIN

EXTENSIVE FRAUD ON GOVERNMENT.

A most extensive fraudulent issue of forg-
ed Exchequer Bills, to a very large amount,
recently discovered, hus created a very grent
sensation in the public mind, and occupied
the attention of the monied and commercial
world. ‘Tho party impeached is Mr. J. E.
Bowman Smith, son of a clergyman, and
nephew of the celebrated Sir Sidney Smith+
The guilty party held the responsible office
of chief clerk in the Comptroller General's
office. ‘The amount is supposed to be not less
than a quarter of a million. The bills are
said to have been legally signed by Lord
Montengle, but that his Lordship's signature
was surreptitously obtained. I[t is further
said that the signing of these bills were de-
puted to the chief clerks. It was not known
whether the Government would pay the
amount or whether the loss would fallon the
innocent holders. Mr, Smith was in receipt
of asalary of £600 sterling a yenr.

There had been great floods in Lincolnshire,
the Witham having overflowed its banks to

an extent before almost unknown.

From the Evening Post.

Human avarice and ambition, are like
fabled waters or Arethusa: suppress them
in one place, they spring up with renewed
force in another. ‘Tho spirit of monopoly,
manifested in banks and tariffs may have
been put down, but it still lives in the hearts
of men. When the occasion recurs, it will
show itself with as much virulence and pow-
er,as at any previous time. A temporary
defeat does not conquer this disposition to in=
Justice and exclusiveness; for it, like the im-
mortal essence of Milton’s angels

a Vital in every part
Can, only by anoihilating, dic.”

It must be eradicated, not merely from
prevailing institutions and Inws, if we may
use the expression, but from tho protentialities
of government, before it can be said to huve
been killed. So long as moral sentiment of
society ndmits the rightof partial legislation,
there will be found a’ class ready and <oli-
cilious touso it. ‘Theres an unwillingness
on the part of many, to recognize the full
and equal rights of others, which will exhib-
it itself whon it is allowed the opportunity.
Nothing but the strict establishment of social’

laws and arrangements upon the basis of por- -

fect justice, can arrest it workings, or ob-
viate its effects.

We find in this fact, the secret of party
divisions nnd party progress. . Men of the
nore liberal way of thinking, will strive per-
petually (o bring the relations of society into
closer accordance with the abstract demands
of justice. The attempt begets a conflict
with those whoso feelings or interests lead
them to desire the conservation of the exist-
ing order of things, A ficrce struggle en~
sues, until the preponderance of argument
remiins with the advocates of a larger freo-
dom. Their opponentsare forced to confess,
either tacitly or openly, tho new established
truth, and an apparent unanimity of all sides,
then takes placo, But it is only apparent.—
The same motives which prompted the
champions of the liberal faith to take the
first step in advance, will prompt them to take
the second, while their enemies will bo left
to occupy the ground they have just vacated.
‘Thus, the positive position of parties is con
stantly altering, but the relative position re-
mains the same. ‘The story of one age, be-
comes the whig of the next; the whig moves
onward to still higher truth; and this series
of advances constitutes the progress of the
human raco, At bottom, thy characteristics
of each party aro ever the samo, although
each is incessantly shifting its ground. “In
all stages of society,” says an English writer,
“there have been two sets of men: those who
were before the age, and thoso who were be-
hind it; these who were the wisest among
their cotemporaries, and those who gloried
in being no wiser than their grand-futhers”

Let the people look to it!—Great Britain is
warning to tho world of the consequences of
tho “credit system,” involving at once a pub-
Ne debt and paper a money. In both res
pects she exceeds all other nations of Europe.
Uer public debt is beyond the possibility or
hope of redemption; and untilit shall be wiped
off by some bloody revolution, her people
must endure a burden which is a curse and
® blight to honest industry. Her poor must
continue so, until they seal the emancipation
in the blood of x public creditor. Her papor
money is of a lower denomination than that
of avy other country, except the United
States. Hence she has beon subject to fre-
quent revulsions in trade, to long und ropen-
ted suspensions of specio payments, and hns
been saved from utter ruin only by the vast
quantities of actual wealth which her pillag~
ing bos brought from the East Indies. In
Frauce it is otherwise.—Ga. Tel.

Florida which has appeared since the war
commenced. [tis an extract from a letter
of Capt. W. D. A. Wade, 3d artillery, toa
brother officer in this city, which has been
politely furnished to us. We copy it verba-
tim:

Thave no time to writen long letler—
suffice to say I am pleased with the resuLT.
REOAPITULATION:

Killed, 6 warriors, 2 boys 8

Prisoner, 14 warriors. 16 women, 30
10 boys, 15 girls, 25
63

Destroyed, 20 canoes.
Captured, | 18 rifles.
do 12 powder horns, (well filled.)
do any quantity of balls and buckshot,
and as for provisions, more than you can tell.
Pumpkits, coontic, beans, &c. No loss on
my part. Allreturn well. The Indians wero
ready for fight,and very well prepared. Had
60 mch of D and K companies, 3d artillery,
Lieutevant Thomas and Assistant Surgeon
Emmerson accompanied.

Hurrah for“Old Wade.” He went out with
sixty men, brought them home safe, and
brought a fair account of SIXTY-THREE.
INDIANS. From the commencement of
the war, no exploit has equalled this.

The Governor of the Stato of Georgia has
issued his proclamation appointing the first
Monday in January next for the election of
three members of Congress to fill the vacan-
cies produced by the resignation of Messrs,
Alford, Nisbit, and Dawson.

Mormons,—The St. Louis Gazette says that
the Gen. Pratte brought up Jast week, iwo
hundred and fity Mormons. ‘They are from
England, and are going to Nauvoo, the city of
the Latter Day Saints.

Mr. Van Buren at Home.—Columbia
county, the native county and present resi-
dence of Mr. Van Buren, has given more than
double the democratic majority which it ever
gave before. Gov. Seward’s county, Cayuga,
which used to be whig has given about 300
majority for the democrats.

The whig papers generally account for the
great falling off in the votes of their party
atthe recent clections, by saying that the
whigs did not turn out; while the Opposition
came out in nearly their full strength. There
is still a further point which requires expla-
nation, viz; why did notthe Whigs turn out?
Is it because they had too much confidence
in their own strength or because they were
indifferent as to the result? And if the lat-
ter, what has made them indifferont? These

are questions which we should like to see an-
swered,—Journal of Commerce.

Private advices from China, states that the
British will find far more difficulty in pringing
the Emperor to terms than they anticipated.

POISONING OF GEN. HARRISON,

The Cincinnati Republican, on the authority
of the Committee that removed the remains
of Gen. Harrison from Washington to North
Bend, contradicts in the most emphatic man-
ner the idje tale which was set afloat by the
New England Review, that Gen. Harrison’s
death was caused by poison. The Republi-
can states that the glass case, in which the
remains were temporily deposited, was not
broken, neither was the head swelled, a3 set
forth in the “revolting suspicion” alluded to,

A vote to be remembered.—In the House of
Representatives, on the 31st of July last, 116
members ALL WHIGS, voted to imposo a
duty on SALT, MOLASSES, SUGAR, TEA
and COPFEE. Exery Democrat inthe House
voted against it. This duty was to supply
the deficiency in the Treasury, occasioned by
the Distribution Bill, which abstracts frow
the Treasury annually, and that cau be re-
lied upon as certain revenue to the Govern-
ment, and applies it to the purpose of udvanc-
ing the value of State bonds in the hands of
British Bankers.-—New Era.

Hallow E'en Pranks.-Ou Saturday night,
the 30th of October, it being hallow ‘cen, a
purty of individuals ia Washington city, de.
sermined to nmuse themselves by taking a
frolic ata distance from homo, and “ along,
cabbages.” Accordingly they proceeded to
a point sparscly settled, and entered a lot,
where it seems the owner was lying in wait
for intruders with a londed gun. Perceiving
his premises invaded, he took aim, drew tho
trigger, and a whole load of shot entered the
lower extremities of one of the aggressors.
Finding the individual severely wounded, the
party retired to a dwelling adjncent, when an
examination disclosed the fact, the sufferer
Was a young girl dressed in men's. clothes?—

Col. Bexrox, who was arrested by a se~
vere attack of sickness in Kentucky, on his
Way to Missouri, has returned tothis city. He
is convalescent, although yet too unwell to
leave his room. His disorder is an engorge-
ment of the lungs, which at first threatened
yery seriously, but the symptoins are now all
favorable, — Globe.

Important Invention—Centrifugal Gun.—
AL the late fair in New York city, an inven-
tion called’ tho centrifugal gun, attracted
much notice. The Express suggests that
onthe the simple principle of the common
sling, a machine constructed according to
the design of the inventor, will, by hand or
other power adopted to the weight of the
shot, throw with destructive effect 9 vast
number of shot, in a minute.

A fow engines of that description,. propel-
led by steam, in floating batteries of a suita-
ble form, would protect our harbors and
rivers against the combined fleets of Europe;
and on Janda hundred men ina fort or in
the field, could by hand power defend thems
selves when opposed by as many thousands.
Uf peace will be promoted by improving and
multiplying the engines of destruction and
defence, this invention must be an impor
tant one.

New Jersey Banks.—A bill hus been intro-
cuced into the LegisInture af New Jersey,
requiring that all the banks and companies

ising banking privileges ia New Jersey,
shall, on or before thh fourth of July next,
