The returns from ihe State, so far as received, leave but little doubt of a Locofoco majority in the next Legislature. It may be two and may be twenty. A large portion of the State is yet to hear from, and it is that portion which is generally relied on by our opponents to bring up their role. What cause has led to this disastrous result we are not able to say. It is to be regretted at this time that the whigs did not succeed. We have a Senator to elect and a new apportionment to make, and we have seen enoughof locofoco fjairness in this arid other States to satisfy us in advance that Indiana will be gerrymandered most beautifully. Our opponents, in fact, promised us, in case they succeeded, they would so district the State as to leave as lit tle chance as possible of the Whigs having a majority for the next five years, and we all know they keep such promises. Or The Star of Locofocoism seems to fiA In lliA ssrpnsnl Indiana iinnl iVio rvnlo State in which the Whigs are behind their usual vote, The Whig vote in Kentucky has fallen offgreatly since the November election, tere is no doubt, however, but the Whigs will have a majority in the Legislature. We shall lose one or two members of Congress. In Tennessee where we thought the whigs secure, there is now every prospect of their being beaten. The falling offin the vote for the whigs in the few cofrfties heard from in the ' middle part of the State, we fear cannot be made up, and we reluctantly, expres3 oar belief that Mr. Foster is beaten. The Nashville Whig says Thus far the news is decidedly unfavorable to the whigs. Mr. Clay's majority over Mr. Polk it the whole Slate, was only 113 votes, Mr. Foster has already fallen behind Mr. Claj's majority five oi six hundred votes, and should the returns from a lew more counties continue to exhibit a corresponding loss on the part of the whigs, the general result will prove unfavorable for them beyond a doubt. Alabama Election, The Nashille Whiff rS KnlurrJa v on arc PKa rafnrna no fir a va i J v tu i uO u j cut uj ceived, from North Alabama render exceedingly doubtful the election of the regular Democratic nominee for Governor, Col. Nat Terry, of Limestone county. His majority over Judge Martin, the independent Democratic candidate, in Madison county was only 493 votes, and we hear verbally that his ma jorities in Limestone and Lauderdale were much less than had been anticipated. OT1 IIuxsv A. Wise, our Minister at the Court of Brazil, has again made himself ridiculous by his interference in matters which did not belong to Ins omce. lie has interfar fi vDro n n 1i.ni--f-r i n rl i tar I tltA t V... wi .

Bad as the appointment of Mr. Promt as minister to Brazil was thought to be, Wise's was infinitely worse. We hope Polk's "magnanimity? (we dont say any thing about fear) wont keep this man longer abroad to the disgrace of the country. (fc7 The New York Express savs; Maun Delafield, the present Superintendent of the Military Academy at West Point, is, we hear, to be relieved very shortly, Capt. Brewerton, of live Engineer Corps to which branch of the serviee the office of the Superinten dent 13 confined succeeding him in the command of the post. Capt. Brewcrton is comparatively a young man, an able and accomplished soldier, and a thorough gentleman. Much as the Academy will miss the ser. vices of Major Delafield, it has been fortunate la his successor. .., AMERICAN STOCKS IN LONDON. The Baltimore ' Patriot says the advices by the Cambria states that the Money Market in London was very easy, and rates of discount low. In American Stocks there was a much better feeling and prices were very firm, with few offering. The efforts in Pennsylvania to maintain her State credit, and the result of ihe Illinois arrangement had had the most favorable effect, and English capitalists were beginning again to look upon American securities as not entirely without value. Some sales Pennsylvanian 5's had beenmadfl at seventy equal to seventyseven here. (Kr A young man named Conoyer was commiltcd to our jail on Sunday night last on the charge of stealing a horse from Mr. L. Neil, of this county, which was found in his poss aiion. He was caught near Casey ville, Ky. 0r Clark, the murderer of Craton, has been arrested, and is now confined in the Petersburg!! jail.

ERIE AND OHIO CANAL. This work continues to excite great interest throughout the country, and io the East especially. The Albany (N. Y.) Argus, the leading democratic paper in that State, pub lishes copious extracts from the proceedings of the Convention held at Terre Haute, and accompanies them with some well timed remarks upon the duties of our present rulers. We rejoice that the Argus has thus timely come to our aid, and we hope and believe

that the suggestions addressed to Gov. Whitcomb by a sheet of hia own party, so ably conducted, will serve to strengthen him in his desire for the speedy completion of this sreat National Work. The finishing of this Canal we look upon as being the least ob jectionable and safest plan that can be adopt ed at present for the, payment of the interest on our State debt, and in this view of the matter we are borne out by the superior in telligence of every statesman and leading journal that has investigated the subjuct. We have now the means to finish the work, and all we want is that those means be well ap plied. If that is done we will soon be able to place ourselves along side of Pennsylvania as an honest, debt paying State. Our last legislature passed unanimously a resolution on the subiect of our State debt, which was approved by Governor Whitcomb, scouting the very idea of repudiation. It is as folIowes : "Be it resolved by the General Assembly of the Slate of Indiana, that we regard the slightest breach of plighted faith, publie or private, as an evidence of a want of a want of that moral principle upon which all obligations depend ; That whenver any state in this Union shall refuse to recognize her seal as the sufficient evidence of her obligations, she will have forfeited her station in the sisterhood of states, and will no longer be worthy of their confidence and respect." Commenting upon this the Argus says "When it is remembred that in the last legis late, the two great political parties were nearly equally divided, the whigs having a small majority in the house, and the senate being a tie, the adoption of such a resolution by a unanimous uote, must be regarded as indicating lairly the sentiment of the people without distinction of party, on the subject of their public debt. It is manifest that the people are arousing to the situation of their finances and that there is a determination to vindicate the honor and restore the credit of the state at the earliest moment practicable.'' The proceedfrigsof the recent convetion," say the Argus cannot fail to give to this work a mighty impulse, and the progress of it will be regarded with deep solicitude, not only because of its undoubted bearing upon the credit and finances of the State, but also be cause itconsitutes one of the grandest inter-: nal improvements of the age and country, whether we regard the length of the Canal, ' or the rich fertile soil through which it passes. As a tributary to our own Erie canal, our citizens have the deepest interest in its speedy completion." "It will beau honor to be coveted," continues the Argus, "by any administration or party in Indiana, to be instrumental in effecting the completion of the Wabash and Erie Canal through to the Ohio river, and in reestablishing the credit of the State, on terms honorable and just and though such meas ures can only be effected by the union of good men of all parties, acting with a single eye to the public good, yet it will devolve on the administration in power to devise and re commend the plan by which such results may be effected, and to them will be awarded the honor and glory of the achievments by a grateful and relieved people. For our selves, we are gratified with the piospect that this high honor will fall to the lot of James Whitcomb, and that under his administration the slate of Indiana will be redeemed and disenthralled, and her public credit establish ed on a basis of enduring honor." STATE DEBTS. The debt owed by the several indebted States of the Union, on the 1st January, '45 as taken from the official reports made to the respective Legislatures, was $212,700,000. The largest debt is owed by Pennsylvania, $40,703,860 New York, 28,258,412 Ohio, . 19,270,751 Louisiana, 16,850,000 Alabama, 13,432,555 Illinois, 14,633,859 Indiana, 14,445,000 1 he annual interest on the debt, as above stated, is about 12,500,000.

Any time that it is convenient, Burns. John Jacob Astor, it is said, lost $100,000 by the late fire in New York about onesixth of his annual income, - . Among the property consumed by the fire were the plates of the splendid work of Auotjbon, the ornithologist. It is supposed that his loss will exceed 15,000, It is the more to be regretted, as the edition, issued was very limited. They were the result of years of patient labor.

We have already stated that the Rev. Mr. I Brownlow, has accepted the nomination of the Whigs, of the First Congressional District in Tennessee, as the candidate for Congress. He has issued another very long address, in which, among others, ha uses up his opponent, Mr. Johnson. We have room for only the concluding portion of his address: "Feixow Citizens: I protest against the issue which Mr. Johnson lias made. He makes the issue ouo of bravery or cowardice. And he complains, as I am told, that I will not meet him in public gatherings and fight him. It is not a contest between us, as to who will fight, and who will not; his fighting propensities is one thing, and his votes in

Congress, and his political principles is another. I have denounced him for his falsehoods and villanies as he deserves to be denounced, and I will take nothing back 07"HE KNOWS WHERE TO FIND MEL.C0 And ifl am that dastardly wretch he would have the public believe I am, he is the less excusable for not inflicting that chastisement upon me he believes I so lichly merit. He believes I will run from a pistol or a club. Now, I venture to assert that there are not ten Whigs in this entire District, who will vote for me, after I run from Mr. Johnson, no matter what sort of weapon he may advance upon me with. By simply chasing me once in the streets of Jonesboro,' then he can drive me from the track settle the contest forever and disgrace me in the eyes of my own friends. Why not DO instead of TALK? As he said to Mr. Campbell, so I say to him: let us not trouble the public withour personal matters: they can be settled between ourselves. But, fellow-citizens, I recollect in the play of Cato. when he called his little Senate together at Utica, just as Caesar was marching on the city, the fury and impetuous zeal of Sempronius led him to exclaim "My voice is still for war'." So says my competitor. But I modestly reply, as did Lucius "My thoughts, 1 must confess, are turned on peace!" The sequel was, Sempronius deserted io Caesar the next night, and Lucius remained with Cato, and fought it out like a man! This same Sempronius whispered to Cato to beware of Lucius that he was a TRAITOR! I shall shortly address another circular to the voters of the District, and till then, I remain, very respectfully, Fellow citizens, your obedient servant, WILLIAM G. BROWNLOW. - July 16ih, 1845. STRENGTH OF MEXICO, As Mexico threatens to delare war against the United Slates, and probably will do so, it is a matter of some interest to know who we are to fight, their numbers, character and complexion, their experience in arms, The following is the census in each province or district : ' Aguscalieuts, Chiapas, Chihuahue, Daahulla, 69,598 141,206 . 147,600 73,340 162,618 516,605 679,311 1,389,520 497,906 101,109 57,026 500,278 561, 002 120,560 321,840 140,000 124,000 53,800 100,068 254,380 580,948 273,575 Durango, Guanajuato, Jalisco Mexico, Mihoacan, Neuvo Leon, Neuvo Meixco, Oajaca, Puebla, , Queretare, San Louis Potosi, Sinaloa, Sanoro.

MR. McLANE'S APPOINTMENT. The London Times, received by last the arri vals, has this brief notice of the appoint ment of Mr. McLane as ou r Minister to Eng land: "The appointment of Mr. MacLane as Min ister in England for the U. S, is regarded as an event of much importance by those who take interest in our relations with America. The greatest possible respect is testified for Mr. Everett, the preseut Minister, but it has not been conconsidered that as he differs in politics from - the present Executive, he has less power than will be possessed by Mr. MacLane, who is completely in the confidence and favorable to ihe views of President P. Mr. Maclne is also well and favorably known in this country, and as he is we believe, a personal and intimate friend of the present Foreign Secretary, this appointment may be considered as evincing a disposition on the part of Mr. Polk to maintain the friendly relations with Great Britain which Mr. Everett had been so successful in preserving. MAGNIFICENT SLAVE TRADER. ; .The London correspondent of the Boston Atlas thus describes M. Souza, a name too well known in the annals of the Slave trade on the coast of Africa: ' The commauder of the French brig-of-war Zebre has sent a report to the Minister of the Marine, giving some curious factsrespecting the Slave trade on the coast of Africa. It appears lhat a person named M. Souza is the great chief of the trade at Wydah, where he lives surrounded with oriental magnificence. He has in Iiir vast saraglio a harem of four hundred women ; his dinners are described as being equal to the feasts of Balthazar, and served in the most luxurious manner; no , male person is ever allowed to go

beyond his grand dining-hall. He is exclusively served by women six of whom serve him with food, of which he never partakes till they have first tasted every dish. He trades in slaves to a great extent, and has done so for many years. He is now quite old, and, it is said, he is generous and highminded in every thing but this dealing in slaves. When advised by the French commander to abandon this wicked trafic in human flesh and do penance - for his sins as a slave dealer, by civilizing his adopted land, he answered that a British cammander had already advised him to abandon the slave trade for that of palm oil, but he dispised that trade, as it would not afford him a sufficient profit to enable him to keep up his profuse style ot living. He added that he wished to

civilize the country, but that the means proposed by philantropisls were either injudicious or incomplete, and that he was loo old to undertake such art arduous task. LATER FROM MEXICO. The New Orleans editors have late dates from Mexico. We make the following extracts from the Picayune of the lstinst By the arrival yesterday of the schooner Lquity, Capt. bmitb, from Metamora, we have dates from that city to the 21st of July. Among her passengers was Theodore A. Maltby, one of the Texian Mier prisoners. A letter received by a commercial house in this city, dated on the 2Uth ult., states that a new tariff will shortly go into operation much lower than the old one By this arrival we received no papers, but, verbally, we learn that there are but five oi six hundred badly fed troops in the neighbor hood of Matamoras, discontented fellows, who would run away at once it they knew where to go. One gentleman, who has recently travelled by land from the city of Mexico to Matamor as, informs us that the inhabitants in many parts, as well as the public journals, talk op enly, and with the usual bombast and fanfar onade, of invadin" Texas and the "United States at once. The undertaking is looked upon as one of the easiest and simplest things imaginable, to advance and , vanquish, clean as they go, even as far as Washingten city, is deemed mere holiday-work Our informant states that Gen. Paredes was at San Louis Potosi when he came through, and had in the neighborhood of five thousand troops with him. These were tolerably well uniformed, and the horses of the cavalry were in fair condition. Alter arriving at Monterey, our informant heard that Paredes was on his march towards that place. He has always been intemperate, though a brave officer, and is said to be now more addicted to liquor than ever. Gen. Arista, wlfo' is in bad health, is still at Monterey, and has about three thousand halfstarved soldiers with him. They are mostly cavalrv. but their horses are represented as mere skeletons, not having had any other food than grass for some time, and that being in different in the neighborhood. Arista can hardlv obtain money enough from the Gov ernment to purchase provisions even for him self and officers, to such straits is he driven, while the poor soldiers are obliged to pick up a scanty subsistence as best they can. Two anecdotes have been told us. which show the wretched condition of the Mexican treasury and the extreme- poverty of the of ficers of the army. One of the latter lately sold his only blanket to an American for half its value, the purchaser not wanting it but civinsr him the money as he stated he was absolutely in want of the necessaries of life Another officer asked a gentleman for the loan of ten dollars, and on being questioned as to what security he could give, offered his wife, a young and pretty woman of some six teen years! He had nothing else to offer, and positively told the gentleman she might remain with him until the debt was paid1 Difficult as It would appear to be, we fully believe these stories; and these are the peo ple who talk of overrunning the United States. Sixty-thousand such troops, "with sixty-thousand Banks of England to back them, could never reach the Mississippi, and yet with half the number they talk of taking possession ot VYashington. Caleb J. McNclty, having been discharg ed from the first indictment against him, on the ground t hat the money drawn through Mr. Moody of Columbus, was tor his quarters sal ary, addressed a Locofoco convention last week in honor of the discharge of Dorr from the R. I. Penitentiary! We "Pay for Heating the Poker." Ready and anxious as our Government has been to pay any and every claim that Texas preferred, there were, it seems, a few items overlooked during the Washington negotia tion. These were recently brought to the consideration of our Charge, Mr. Boualdson. by President Jones. Among them is ihe expenses attending the election of delegates and the expenses ot the Convention, which was elected and met to ratify the Treaty ot Annexation. Mr. Donaldson of course as sures President Jones that this will be attend ed to at Washington; that we are so anxious to marry Texas that we not only take her dowerless, but in debt, and pay (he bridal ex penses. All this might be endured if we were "marrying into a decent family," ifour betrothed were either beautiful, accomplished, virtuous, or half white. To drop the metaphor, we take Texas with her War, Slavery, Debt, &c., and then pay her travelling expenses,board, tavern and julep bills. If there are any other forgotten items any charges for washing, "mending pantaloons," &c.i bring them on. The National Treasury is opeu to any and all demands made as die price of Texas Annexation.

Now lhat it is apparent no Extra Session of Congress will be called this year, one may look forward to the materials and .business of the next regular session. The business will be .so important in very many respects, that it is a source of high gratification to the friends of the country, that there is talent of a superior order in both chambers; and though that talent may be chiefly in the minority of members, it is of a kind to be lelt and acknowledged, and its influence must be so felt, and so obvious, that though its possessors may not often congratulate themselves upon the good measures they have been able to project and carry, yet they tan never be fiihout the gratifying consciousness, that they have infused good into the projects of others, and disarmed of a thousand slings, some of the brood which have been hatched by the thoughtless. It is a mournful reflection, that a very large portion of the bills, and additions to bills, proposed in Congress, have their origin in a feeling, not so much of desire to promote the great interests of the party to which the originator belongs, as to identify him with some striking measure of that party, and to distinguish him abroad for a boldness, that cannot fail to produce momentary eclat.The thoughts of the future for the country the effects of the wrong measure as a precedent, are wholly neglected. ."Let the future take care of itself," is apparently the motto of such men. If, for a moment, the truth should flash upon their minds, that a train of measures, composed of such material as is their one single plan, would ruin the country they would say, and they would comfort themselves with the reflection, that as one such measure would not be ruinous,let those look out for the consequences, who multiply these bad measures. To them it is enough that the country, and its beautiful institutions, will abide as long as they lite, and like the children in the nursery game, they will only back saddle those in whose hand Robin dies. What would have been the fate of the na tion at the present time, had these destructives of a majority been allowed to work out the true ends of their own measures, we are not able to say. Certainly, the country would not have been prosperous; certaiuly, it would have been saddled with an enormous debt; and, most certainly, the comforts and conveniences of life, which now pervade all ranks of the middle and eastern States, would have been confined to the upper crust of society, and that crust, like most other pieces of "puff pastry," would have been broken by the convulsions below ; and, not to drop the simile, the fragments wouid have added nothing to the health of the cotnmuuiLet then the men, who go for the measures which make for the glory, and the greatness of the country, (by glory and greatness, we mean itsjustice towards others, and the happiness of its own people,) find no cause for diminution of efforts in their present position. Nayi let them not despair, even though out voted. We repeat the idea conveyed above, that until the madness that precedes destruction gets possession of the Congress of the nation, every important measure that passes Congress, must be touched by the sanative influences of that great

minority. ' It may bear tho name, and seem

to represent the feelings and views of the majority, but it will, somewhere, be supplied with a compensating provision, that shall restrain its ostensible tendencies, and render, if not harmless at least, less injurious its general operation. And even if, in the madness ot personal ambition to produce a parly ef fect, some wild and most destructive principle should be incorporated into the provisions of a law, in spite of the hearty efforts and stirring eloquence of the minority; if these efforts, and that eloquence, should fail of effect in the legislative halls, and the lav go forth to the people, with paity poison in every section, still it may prove inoperative still it may not produce extensive injury. The efforts and the eloquence that failed to touch the hearts, and influence the Totes of those who had been stimulated in Congress, to a sudden action of wrong, will not be wrtkout a wholesome effect upon the conmwerity, less prone to judge incorrectly, less influenced by personal motives; more capable, from length of time, to judge correctly; and thus, though failing to extract the poison from the law, the faithful representatives of republican feelings, and republican principles, will deprive the statute of much of its injury, by rendering the people insusceptible to - its virtues. . . We hear much talk of the duty of majori ties towards minorities. It is now our pleasure and our right to point to the duty of minorities to the country, and to call upon the leading men of the Whig party in Congress, to remember that their talents must be exercised with redoubled vigor, to prevent the evil which their opponents may propose, and to say that the country has a right to hold them in some measure accountable for the injury resulting from improper enactments.. Their position, their talents, their attainments, must be used for the public good, without the expectation of that reward of praise and popti-. Ian ty, which follows the able advocate of a successful measure. Safely to conduct a retreat is the duty, but not often the praise, of u vj uijvi u i utiu niv dui uiuoivi j w uif LUBat.9 a great voyage, is always publicly honored, and justly, perhaps; but the wise merchant knows what is due to the pilot, that saves the ship in the midst of a storm; and he ought not to overlook the services of the crew, that preserves the vessel and cargo, when some of the officers seem bent upon a shipwreck. Honor, lasting honor, attends those gifted men who stand by the ship of State ' in the hour of peril, and risk all to save her from political barratry. U.S.Gaa. From the Baltimore Patriot. THE LOCOFOCO DISCORDS. The elements of strife in the ranks of Locofocoism are last doing their work, and the dissolution of the party is hastening to a consummation. The Union contends that the "disaffected" faction is not as great as sorao suppose, but in making this declaration it unwittingly admits that' discord does exist. And how could it be otherwise! Held together by the cohesive power of public plunder," as is that wing of the party which constitutes its main strength, how can it be expected lhat those will "adhere" when the "plunder" is distributed, who have not received theii share, or having received their share, have squandered it, and now want another distribution of the spoils? ' They can get nothing, or no ' more under the present powers, and they will "flake off" into factions and seek new organizationsj which may promise success or change. There is also a large portion of the party who have not joined in the clamor for office, and are now become disgusted by the extent to which the system of "rotation in office" has been carried by Mr. Polk, and the paltry motives by which be appears to have acted. They have also been outraged by the character of many of those who have received appointments at his hands, and in the case ot one "notorious person, "as some of the Locofoco papers have called him, there has been a bust of indignation which has reached even into the ranks of those who have seen good men turned out and bad men appointi i . j .1 i: j .

They havin refused i:, the President, with wonderful good luck, fell upon a gentleman eminently fitted for the post, who not without reluctance and much solicitation accepted it. And litis appointment, so wisely so far as we have seen, re ceived the approval of a single Locofoco paper except the Union which being the organ, is of course pleased with whatever Mr. polk does! -So wide are the factions apart so bitter mane, nas uw, isnheir hostility to each other that it has already come to pass, that Mr. P. can do noth ing that will meet the approbation of a ma jority of those who elected him, whilst most he does is met with a clamor of dissatisfac tion on one side, and of well denoted sneers on another. The "cohesion", of the parly is gone the discordant elements which united to defeat Henry Clay, are. already at war with each other and the separation never to unite again, is inevitable.- The session of the next Congress will scarcely elose with out the denoument, and Mr. Polk will then present to all aspirants and to all parlies, a warning of the danger of elevating a man to the Presidency who has not deserved that distinction by a long service or exalted tal-, ents.
