The proceeding* of Honey Creek, Electing six Delegate*, will be found in anoth* «r column.—Such Townships sa have not already acted, would do well to attend imroeI *jiately to the appointment of person* to repiv^ireeent them in Convention.
COM IUSAR, 7
Jr In another column will be found an interesting article on the subject of theCorn Sugar process. The method of raising and manag-
Jog the Corn, as well as the mode of making Sugar, are both described by one having ex* perience in-thai line. This subject has beCome one of much interest' and we have & 4 beard great hopes expressed that Wabash farmer* would not fail to give the experiment in fair trial this season. Indeed, we very trial way be turned to account and prove one of it #reet gain the first season, if half be true, (hat is represented in reference to the quantity of Sugar that may tj« obtained from one acw of corn. -••'j Tftomas Holdswortb Blake (of Indiana) baa beta appointed by the President of ?be United State*, with tbetdrtce and content of the Senate, to be Commissioner of tbe General L*nd Office, vies Huntington, reeigned. This appointment was conirmed by the
Senate, aa we hear, with a unanimity which moat be
gratifying to Col. Blake and bia friends, of haa many in thia at.InteUigeneer. may be still further gratifying (o the Colonel^nd his friends abroad, to know, that ^universal opinion here, fully equals the unanimity with which the Senate confirmed his appointment.

Col. Blake left this place on Thursday last Igfor Washington City, in order to enter on the pities of his office.
JESSE WILLIAJM.
^«E We would refer the reader to tbe Report lof the investigating committee in another column. We publish that portion of the Report |which relates to charges preferred against
Mr. Williams as Chief Engineer. The committee conclude their report by saying, that Mr. Williams' vindication is complete and ^triumphant on nil points,and will be so found *3on examination.
k#
MESSRS. STANLEY AND WISE. From eastern papers we learn that tbe difficulty between these two gentlemen has been adjusted. Tliere will be no duel—and( each party will be at liberty to attend to the interests of hi* constituent* in the House of Representatives. Speaking of the adjustment, the Baltimore American says:
The public baa been already apprised that the Wfllculty between these two gentlemen haa been set tM, by the intervention of frienda. We have learned aome particulars of the aet tlement, which it may bo interesting to atate. In the challenge which waa aent %y Mr. Stanley to Mr. Wise, the former stated that
Tthe collision between them on the race course WM occasioned by the unmanageablentsw of his'horse and ,'%at by deeign. The friend of Mr.Wiee, tl» Hon. Wm.
Johnson, accepted the challenge on behalf of his ao, with a commendable est re between the parties,
principal, but, in doing ao, with a jef restoring a good undemanding look leave to auggeet that, aa Mr jwas prefaced by an explanation of the cem "like fUss Osama?* It eeafd Tie wiihAwa, nation might be given on the part or Mr. W would render further hostile proceeding uni '•itr something to that effect. The challenge lingly withdrawn for that purpoee, and Mr. Wise,
Stanley's challenge of the occurrence on aa aspic-
be part oTMr.Wiee, which tie proceeding unnecessary, The challenge waa ac
a written communication, expressed his regret at be occurrence and apologiaed lor it. In this state o. ^things, the frienda or the parties respectively did not Mhiak that cither of them was bound to pr«*s6«t« the affair further."

RHODE ISLAND.
The revolution or insurrection, or whatever may be called the late disturbance in Rhode island, is probably now over and ended. The Suffrage or Dorr party, are completely overthrown, and Dorr himself fled from the State.
As this subject haa excited great interest |for some time past, we have extracted several rjartlcles from publio journals into our columns,—somo of which have reference to the sorigin, and others to the la twit transactions of the several parties ooncerned.
Tbo Providence Journal of tbe 91st saya, veryjsatly, that the importance of the triumph oflaw andorder, over violenoe and treason, which has been achieved by tbe firmneea and prudsnesot the Government, aided by the manly support of the citisens, cannot bsovarcstimated. It is a triumph not for Rhode laiand alone, but for the Union for the cauas of Republican Government and, nnless we are greatly mistaken, tbo 8ute of Rhode Island has earned and wilt receive the •gratitude of the whole country."
In relation to thia subject, Mr. Tallmage ,h*k given notice that he would introduce into Ithe Senate of the United States resbtattons, which were read as follows: first. That by the Constitution of tbeUni,Jt*d States the united Statee ia boond not only to /I guaranty to every State a Republican form of Govern-
Imeat, bat to protect it both against domestic violenoe ^aad foreign invasion. •J AsslssJ, secondly, That the fbrm of Government
IwHb which a State came into the Union, and haabeea irseogniaad and represented aea member of the Union be taken and regarded A republican, and that mch Sta:e is eatKled to all that protection against linvwfoa and domestic violenoe which is pledged by the Conetitotioa oI the United Suites.
XndmI, That the Government of a 8tau so eon" Ing into the Unton, aad so reoognised as a ntessbec of it, can only be changed or suspendedoooeietently with the principles of our American Republic when it ia Idoae in pursuance of, and in the mode preacribed by fthe laws of ss«H 8tate, and that any attempt to overthrow by loros that Government ia disorganising and revolutionary, tending to anarchy and bloodshed, and. ,in the sad, to the dent motion of the Public Liberty land ia such a dowestte violence as entities the State |by her Legislature or Executive, (when the LegWa,tare eannnt be convened,) to apply tar aad obtain ,fcom the United SuteajMroteetion ajniaat the same.

MmnctrAUTT NOTES.—Meb Violent*—Attack and JRMery of /bur Broker** Oficet—Tke Military eafltd omt—Gfrtat Excitement.
From morning yesterday till night, the city wis the theatre of a most intense excitement and but for the energy with which our citizens, aided by some ofthe police, suppressed the first lawless onslaught, scenes the most disgraceful to the character of the city, and most destructive to the property of our people, would doubtless have been enacted. But without further speculation upon what might have occurred, we will proceed to state what actually did take place.
On the general resumption of specie payments by the banks, the value of the change notes of the Municipalities at once depreciated —some of them to 25 or 80 per cent, below par. Generally speaking, the holders of these notes were men of small means, and the few dollars of Municipality money which they held was their all. Bad men, availing themselves of this state of things, urged those who felt themselves aggrieved, to redress themselves by banding together and engaging in a career of lawless violence, and a destruction and plunder of the property of our citizen*. This evit counsel was eagerly listened to and to some extent implicitly obeyed.
About eight o'clock yesterday morning a orowd of some thousand persons collected on the public square. They ware principally men who do business in a small way about the lower markets—Frenchmen, Spaniards, Italians, die. After some brief but agrarian addresses from some of those among them, they proceeded to the building in which are the Mayor's office, and the Treasury of the First Municipality. Here they became extremely clamorous, and gave indication of their determination to outrage both law and order. They were met by the Mayor, who assured them that all excitement and apprehension about municipality notes, wore groundless—that the Municipalities would provide for the payment of them at par value, and be therefore requested them to disperse and go home. This did not seem to satisfy them every wan was loud in urging his own complaint. The Mayor said it was impossible for him to reply to them all, but suggert* ed that if a committee of three from among them would come up to his office, he was prepared to hear any thing they had to say, and to give them such advice aa he thought most conducive to their interest. A committee was appointed, who, with the Mayor, retired to his office, and it was ia their absence, that aome ooe :n the crowd cried oat in French, »*)own with the brokers! down with the brok*rsl!n which seemed to be the signal lor a general rush up Chaitrea street. On reachutg the corner of Gamp and Oml they aimoltaneeusly broke into and eed plundering four of the Exsbang offices kocatod there. Some appropriating to thermal ss tbe spoils, some breaking the counter* and window*, and dashing tbe pisoes aboutr—all appearisg iodiaed to carry on and mnsnmaia the worit of dsstraeboe. With the bee of hssidoidsr ubeiacjaiiir of oor they fft» to the reaens, drove off and
dispersed the mob, and secared sotae et|jg^ those most prominent in the
work
of rooq^y
and demolition. .. The whole city now
ap^e of gen
became a
eral excitement. It was rumored that sn attack would be made on theSecood Municipality jail, an attempt made to rescue the prisoners caught in the act of pluoder. The ritisttwy of thia Municipality, to the amount of sonf hundreds, at once armed and placed then* selves under the command of the veteran Col. White—the Washington Batnilkm end the Legion turned out—the great guns west put in order, and every thing bore theappearance of a cityunder martial law. .*
Nothing, however occurred through theday, after the sacking of the' broker's
officeS,ex»
cepta faint demonstration thai was W9 about half past 12 to attack the Second Mu» icipality jail, which was at ouce suppressed.
The names of the Brokers whose stores were yesterday broken into and plundered, are Messrs. Valentine dc Williams, A.S. Bar? ker, E. W. Nance and -Raffell. The amount of gold and silver taken from them is variously estimated at from five thousand to ten thousand dollars.

Preparations are being made for the invasion of Mexico on a grand scale, and those in the confidence of the Executive think that, in a very short time, say in tbe course of a month at' farthest, the work will have beeo fairly entered upon. The great body of the people are impatient to engage in the enterprize, anticipating in its prosecution, some rare sport, and before its final consummation my brilliant achievements. Ai
Within a month the crops will have received the finishing touch from the husbandman, and so ardent is tbe temperament of our people, and so fired have their imagination become with the *'beauty and booty'* of Mexico, (both of which they conceive to be their rightful inheritance,) that it will be impossible to restrain them at home, and the dull and monotonous scenes of a Texas farmers' life until they have at leaat made an experiment of an excursion into Mexico. The invasion of Mexico" is now the general topic of conversation in every circle from the ladies parlor to the public promenade, and the salootolif our fashionable hotels. All classes of society and all ages, and each sex enter into this raster with equal enthusiasm. The old men end women, young men and maiden—all, all, of every class^trom lisping infancy to hoary age, speak, think, read, dream of nothiogelse than the invasion of Mexico. Think you that such universal enthusiasm in favor of tbe scored cause of civil and religious liberty will eventuate in "sound and fury signifying nothing No I you have a more just conception of the character of the Anglo-Saxon rape, especially of that enterprising portion of them who have emigrated to this land of (he Prairies.
The President has pledged himself to the people, that as soon as the farming portion of the community can be spared from their crops, he will enter at once upon the prosecution of the war, and public sentiment ^jll force him (if he should not be inclined toxia so willingly) to redeem his pledge. The peo-ple-are determined no longer-to iswaia mtheir present condition, subject to tbe continual annoyance of a cowardly and imbecile foe,' when they are conscious that by a determined effort they can extort the acknowledgement pf their independence.
We think the ball has already been set in motion, (and that it will soon receive a fresh and powerful impetus,) which will never ceape to roll until the whole of the mis-named Republic of Mexico shall be redeemed, regenerated and disenthralled from the manifold etfts which now weigh down the spirits and paralyze the energies of her people. When the invasion of Mexico by Texas shall have been fully commenced, there is no prediction where or when it may end, or what nations may not before its close become participants in its strife. But though we are the friends of peace, and deprecate most seriously the evils of war, yet we think that amidst the lowering ctoud of evil that darkens the atmosphere in looking forward to the contest to which we have referred, we can descry many bright stars, and can see in the perspective the rainbow qf hope, that great good to the general interests of the human family will be deduced from this seeming evil. So may it be!
The prosperity of the country (except on the Western frontier,) does not appear to have been seriously checked, Emigration continom to flow into the Northern, Middle and Eastern sections. Many settlements are being made in the upper Trinity country. Lands on that stream appear to be "all the rage" among those desiring to establish cotton plantations in Texas. A considerable quantity wee recently purchased by a foreigner at one dollar and fifty cents per acre, with a view of establishing a colony of agriculturists. The superior navigation of the Trinity, together with the fertility of the soil embraced within its bottoms and vicinity, and tbe fact of its having direct communication with the commercial emporium of the Republic unite to draw the attention of wealthy agriculturalists to the importance of making investments in its land. Many wealthy planters have settled in the upper Trinity country during the present year.-.. 1v'
From all pi^tsbf tbe Republic the Mat flattering accounts are daily reoeived in regard to the favorable prospects of our farmers. General health iseojoyed by out citizens. An uncommon degree of eneigy and industry are being pot into requisition throughout the whole extent of the Republic. Can smcka people be long ktpt in adversity.

CONGRESS.
In the Senate, a motiootoprmt Mr. A Sen's Rhode Island Resolution* was laid OQ the ta-
Messrs. Sprigg, Mason, Givin and others gave their views in relation to the home squadron, and on tbe propriety of continuing in service the number of officers provided for in the bill.
This substitute to tbe Bill was carried by a rote of 23 to 22. The opposition Senators were now compelled to sustain th$ Judiciary with Gen. Jackson, or to abandon Gen. Jackson. They chose the latter alternative, and voted, against the Bill for refunding the amount of the fjne. The Whig Senators generally voted for it, but the Bill was rejected a 2 4 to 1
The Senate then went into Executive session, and passed tbe remainder of the day with closed doors.
In the House, Mr. Fillmore moved a resolution that all debate upon the Navy Bill should cease at one o'clock on Friday. The tesolution wss adopted, and the Senate went into Committee of the Whole on the Bill and it was discussed until adjournment.
Corrtepondenee of the Baltimore PatriotWASANWTOIF, MA* 84,1841 The House of Representatives yesterday, made good progress in the public business, and deserve a passing word of commendation, at least, for the advance made' there in the consideration, of the public business.
The Navy bill went through all the forms from discussion, the submitting of amendments votes in committee of the whole, a report to the House ojf Representatives, a concurrence there by yens and nays in what was done in committee of the whole, motions to reconsider, votes upon thq engrossment, and so on to the end of the chapter, to a vote upAn the title of the bill, and an order to send it
millions. One item, for pay apd subsistence, was reduced eight hundred thousand dollars and another, for Dry Docks, iftfvy yards and like matters, which the service can dispense with, though certainly not with mnch convenience, thirteen hundred and fifty-six thousand dollars, making in all, I believe, 92,150,400—a very considerable reduction in money for the support of the service, besides the important provision wbich prevents the appointment of any new officers, and a reduction of tbe personnel of the Navy to the stan dard of January, 1841.
The Navy officers here, as well as the Navy Department, after all tbe encouragement that has been given from time to time, take this action of the House very unkindly. Except in the matter of appropriations, I doubt of tbe Committee of Finance
the concurrence in the Senate, or of tbo provisions incorporated. the amendment which prohibits promotions, except upon the terms of limitation, prescribed in the proviso of Mr. MCCLEIXAN, of New York, was but four votes. Mr. Evaarrr's making "January, '42," the standard of limitation, instead of "January, '41," was lost in Committee by a majority of- five only, and would probably have been concurred in if the Committee bad been full.
'MB')
hie. Tbejeoosidsfratioaof the Bill providing Crux accompanied ns I for a remission ot the fine imposed by Judge feur or ftvn captives Hall on Gen. Jackson, occupied !be remainder of the day.
In the House, after the reception of some Executive communications, in answer to resolutions of enquiry, the consideration of the Naval Appropriation bill WM resumed in Committee of the Whole.
The question pending was still withe amendment of Mr. Merriwether, reducing the amount for the pay of officers and seamen to •3,335,. 000.
CWiwps
WnmuT.
THUISDAT,
The resolutions of Mr. Merrick, with the substitute offered by Mr.' McRoberts, were called up. The original resolution declares that papers sent to the Senate with Executive nominations, should be considered confidential—the substitute proposes that all nominations shall be~ considered with open doors.— The debate upon these propositions consumed the morning hour.
The Bill to refund Gen. Jackson's fine, again came un, when Mr. Bayard of Delaware proposed a substitute to the whole Bill, the purport of which was, tftat the fine of §1,000 should be refunded, but that the passage of the Act should not be construed in any manner as a censure upon the Judiciary by whom the fine was imposed.
Senate itself, to the
Tbe Navy appropriation bill having been disposed of, Mr. Win succeeded in procuring some action upon the measure for reorganizing the Navy. The bill was briefly debated in Committee of the and at the suggestion of Mr.
ADAMSWhole,
disposed of finally. It
was agreed that the bill should not pass at present, but that a joint resolution should be adopted, requiring the Secretary of the Navy and Attorney General, to report rules and reil&tioos, when approved by Congress, should 1 in full force.
The Army Bill was takes up in Committee of the Whole, before the adjournment, aad read through, preparatory to a more full action, which will take place to-day, upon the merits of the bill. Thus there was good progress for one day, and were every day to bring as much to pass, the result would .be a very di&reni estimate of Congress.
The Senate, after the introduction Oi the Rhode Islaod resolutions, new series, consumed the day in the consideration of a bill for the relief of the heirs of Silas Deane, the man so justly celebrated in tbe earlier history of
Government. Tbe claim was for services rendered abroad during the Revolution, before Mr. Deane was the minitferial officer of the Government.
As for many days past, the Senate closed its session with Executive business. I believe I have not informal you of fee nomination and confirmation of
Bu«*, of Indiana, as Commissioner to tbe General land Office, ia place of Mr. HWK tiogtou, made Judge of the United States District Court. Tbe nonainatioo was very popular, aad quits satisfactory enough to make his confirmation unanimous. Mr. Blake is a sterling Whig, and fully competent to the diechsrge of all his duties.
