one of the severest, no doubt, wh.ch has visi-T

wur c.j, ,W c uu.uucr ui years. iorwiem wind blew violently for full an hour tearing the wharf boats from their moorings and driving them in a confused manner along the wharf. The wharf-boat of Mr. Wood, with the steamer Hermann, was driven out into the river, but, so soon as the wind abated, was brought back to the landing. The othr wharf-boats were secured to the shore juring the storm. The steamers Kentucky .1 ti: I . i uu uiumuui were ijing ui me lower exucrony oi me wnan, in company ,witn a numoerm iiat-ooats w men were lastenea to them, were blown loose and hurried a consideraoie distance up tne river. 1 ne steamer tuimauu uruKc iuosc irum uie acuuckjshore, and crossing the river was grounded on n t.ar.

We have received the returns of the election in Vigo county, from which it appears that Michael Combs, Whig, has been elected Senatorial delegate to the Convention. The county delegates elected are C. W. Barbour and Thomas I. Bourne, WThigs, and G. F. Cookerly, Democrat.

The Advocate say that when th's road, and the Mt.

Vernon and every other favored point on the Ohio river. There is every reason to believe that the required sum of $2000 will be subscribed at once, and that this excellent improvement will be pushed on with vigor. jrMr. Littlefield, the principal witness in the Parkraan murder caee, according to the Boston Mail, has been offered the sum of $5000 to travel six months with an expedi tion of a couple of full length wax fignres of the late Dr. Walsh, Esq., the distinguished American consul.

Wiae In their own Wiadoiu. But do not be deceived ; the Journal does not utter the sentiment ol the Whigs of this city or county. Its honest wishes were immediately smothered bv the committee, the

editor denounced for daring to interrupt the course the whig party is now pursuing; and it has once more fallen into the traces and tugs away at its usual no-party doctrine. Republican.

Cincinnati Dispatch. Wc have ncghectcd noticing the recent change in our old friend, the Cincinnati Dispatch. Ithasdropped its neutrality, and now under the control 0f t3 forn,er editor, Ned Campbell, and Dr. Alexander Duncan, leads one wing of Ham Uton county Democracy. It is called '-The Cincinnati Dispatch and Democratic Union." We are sorry to notice this change, because we know Ned would after one or two year's lnnrrpr Rtnurfrlf hnvn had n mnnPV-m:ik!inT o -fc- -J J paper in the Dispatch, and now wc have no Mithin it. Again, wc don't suppose he could b fcnockcd 0r coaxed into writing ngau st o o Whiffffcry. and he will never be the IN'ed Campbell as teas in his present position. We know nothing of Dr. Duncan now lie may have reformed but in 1S40, Ned knows as well as we do, l.e was the greatest demagogue and blackguard in Hamilton county, and that is giving him the advantage oi the whole State. Cut we do the Doctor the justice to say, thnt his pnper how dues not cary out his old reputation. Steamer Industry. Capt. Spotts, former!' cflhe Ml,j-I',,rbour and r1- CurJ formerly of the Worth, have chartered the light draught steamer Industry, an 1 will run her during the season as a Louisville, Evansvil!?. nnd Cairo packet. She has recently been docked and thoroughly refitted. Iler officers are favorably known on t!ie riverand we hope they will be liberally patronized. Enough cf the returns are ia to show the triumphant return of the Democratic nominee for the House of Representatives, and to demonstrate that Sanders has leave to lieia the shade for the rest of his natural life. Politically defunct, poor fellow! Madison Courier. Serves him right for having such a name. The only wonder is, he was ever permitted to run.

JC3The steamers Ironton and Hermann, Lonisvilleand Henderson packcts.both arrived here about the same time Saturday and remained here during the storm. Why. is it, that these boats both arrive at our city on

the same day? It would undoubtedly be a great accommodation to the public if they would so arrange their running as to touch at the ditlerent ports in their trade one at a time and on different days. JlCr'Dispatches from Washington state hat the Hon. II. S. Geyer, of St. Louis, las been tendered the place of Secretary of the Interior, and Hon. Mr. Conrad, of La., that of Secretary of War.

From the returns re ceived, we have no doubt hut the Whigs will have a good and etlicicnt working majority in the next Legislature. In the Senate they will have a very large majority. anJ in the House of Representatives we yet think it will he large enough lor all useful purposes. The Senate consists of 23 members, and the House of 100. Thus far, we have heard of the election of 20 Whij:- and 8 Democrats to the Senate, and 32 Whigs and 26 Democrats to the House. Iou. Lour., lllh. The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer gives the following lacts in proot at the anti-proscnptive char acter ol the late administration: The first and third Assistant Postmaster General are Democrats, at a salary of $2.500 i year each; the clnet clerk ol the Depart ment i3a Democrat, at a salary of $2,000. The three principal clerks to the Postmaster General are all Democrats, at a salary of $1.000 each. There are thirteen clerks, at a salary of'$l,400 each, (uot taking into ac count the new clerkships just created.) and every one ol these thirteen, with the excep tion ol one. is a Democrat, lhey have al so not a few of the lower salaries. With these facts, it can scarcely be said that jus tice has been dono the Whig party, much less that a spirit of proscription has existed towards the Democrats. I have taken but one Department. The Treasury Depart meat would show even a stronger case. Murpek. A youth 16 or 17 years of age, named James Hooker, killed another boy 11 or 12 years old, whose name we c?uld not learn, in Morgan Township, on Ihursday list; by shooting him with a spiked and barbed arrow, which entered his skull immediate!)' above the ball of one. of his cyep, to the depth ol two or three inches. 1 lie poor little fellow lived until the next day in the greatest agony, when death put an end to his sufferings. The arrow had to be cut out with a razor, the barbs preventing its being drawn out until the surrounding flesh was cut. The boy Hooker, we understand, says he shot him accidentally, rii tills different stories. He is now ia jail ia this place. Corydon Ia.) Uaz., 0th. Fatal Accident. A Frenchman living a few miles below Sandwich, met with a fital accident last week, in the fol'iming singular and distressing manner: lie was busily encaged in haying, and requested" his wife to bring some tea into the field during the afternoon, remarking at the same lime that he would show her how to mow. She accordingly did as he requested, and while he was sitting on the ground drinking the tea, she took up the scythe, uru! attempted to mow ; but by accident or carelessness she struck her hub and across the leg. She tore c!T a part ol her own clothes and hound them around the wounded liaih to staunch the flow of blood ; but finding she rouid not supcoed, she stalled to the house for help, but when she returned, the suflerer was already dead, having bled to death.

The Portuguese Government having de clined to acceJe to the demands of the American Minister, he has demanded his passports and advertised his furniture for sale. The American Squadron was in the Tucus, and Mr. C lay intended to leave Lisbon oa the 19th. The news of the death of Gen. Taylor. created ercat sensation in England. The eading journals devote much space to the review of his character und exploits. A ar:e meeting oi Americans assembled in London, at which the American Minister 'resided; a series of highly patriotic resolulions were p issed, expressive of the great loss their country had sustained, and the sympathy they felt for the family ol the de ceased. The political news from England presents no new tactions, in Parliament the Minis try have sustained two defeats on their own measures, and have abandoned the Jews Emancipation bill, and the new Marriage act. The potatoc blight is said to have appear ed in England and Ireland in a militated form, its ttfect was beginning to be felt in the corn market, not withstanding some crops present abundant harvest. Actual hostilities have begun between Denmark and the Duchies, the coast of the lorrner having been declared in a state of blockade. There was an nctioii between a Danish man of war and a German steamer on the 21st, the furnier suffered considerable and was forced to retreat.

A inesa:re was received from the Prcsi di nt rel.itie to lhe boundary of Texas, an the dilli-ulty in New Mexico. The Presi lent alluded to Gjv. Ball's 1 tter to the Tex i in members of Congress, published in the Bulletin, of Fi id iy, and s iysthata portion of I the territory east ol'the Bio Grande has been: regaided as odongnig to Aew Mexico, lie thinks the exigency which has arrived in the affairs of Texas and New Mexico mav re'quire an extra session ol Congress. He alludes to his official position and 1 is duty as President to enforce thy laws of the United States, and thinks this a case in which he is authorised to call the military into service, r3 well r.s to cirploy the force of the regular army a::d navy. Tex is, a a State, can employ military force to suppress her own internal insurrections ; but lar power is local, and she has no authority Inch can conflict with the United Stales. In this she isuntntruder, and she will be treated as such. The President takes decided giound that the territory in dispute, east of the ltio Grande, belongs to .eiv Mexico, and for that reason he must protect it from invasion by Texas or any oilier State. He believes lhe treaty with Mexico extends the laws ol the United Stales over the territory east of the llio Grande. The treaty docs not determine explicitly what u the boundary ol Texas ; but. that is his opinion, alter a c.ticful investigation. He will continue to regard said territory as ja part of .ew Mexico until Congress settles the question to the contrary, lie deprecates any collision between the paries themselves or with the United States; but fie must do his duty, and hopes for an imiir-'diate settlement ot' the question. No government can bo provided lor New Mexico until the matter is settled. He doubts the expediency oc appointing commissioners to rua the line.
