fNpt Csesar's weal, hat that of Rome." THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4,1845. - (7"The reader will find in to-day's paper ,a very interesting latter from a gentleman who is p'assing the winter at Indianapolis, and who has kindly consented to" favor us" with an occasional 'Peri and Ink Sketch of men And things at the seat of Government. The rumor which ho mentions of a disposition on the part ofa portion of the citizen ot Vincen nes and ' Terre Haute, to change ', the. Canal from the latter place to Evansville into a rail road is a thing never dreamed of by our citizens and would not be consented to even were ?t likely that Congress would consent to the transfer of the grant made to" the Canal to the building of a railroad. It 13 too late "in the day for projecting. We have gone too far to lookback, and unwilling, as a few disaffected persons in certain sections may be tn sfin thfi Oanalcomnleted.it must and will .be done. . It is the only sure way .of reliev ing our State of the burdens and disgrace which at present attach to it, and we hope and believe that our present General Assem- - bly will not be influenced .in the matter by - the jealousies and sectional - feelings of few designing men. 03-There is no person indebted to us for subscription or advertising but knows it ; and all such will please consider themselves personally addressed when we say to them as we do now we want ovr pa?. " There is no one but can pay us if he will, -and the sooner everv one does so the better tor U3 and them. A Good Thing Weu, Said. A subscri her to a paper, in sending his advance sub7 -, scription money, writes to the editor ." wish to pay for my paper in advance, for never like to read an editor"1 paper as well as I do my ovm. - . - ' OEvery locofoco paper inthe State in which we have remarked any notice of the late Memphis Convention, lakes particular care to leave out of the listpf the committees appointed upon the motion of Gov. Joces, of Tennessee, and which, recommended the course fkaily adopted by the Convention ihe name of Judge A. T. Ellis, of Knox,' as the Indiana member of that committee. This we presume is because he is a Whig fcena "1falge EiJl w iJuaooced to the Conventioa by Gov. Jones, as the dravghter of the whole string of resolutions adopted by that tody, cad a3sucb7epi . -1 ...... I c - f j jAJujjutu papers m our. own Stale, have' not found out, er, at any rate, informed their readers, that Indiana had any member upon that very important commirtee. . r . , A greatTariff Convention was held, two weeks ago at llollidaysburgb, Pennsylvania, over which ex-Governor Porter was called to preside; its object being to protest Bgainst any alteration of the present Tariff. . - A- correspondent of the State Journal says that a large majority of the delegates to this conrention were active supporters" of the. present administration, and now they rely solely on the whigs for protection, aa$ in 1818 will again deceive themselves, by, supporting those who are opposed to their interests. Wfe agree with the correspondent cj.ihV Journal that it is' toobad.; .'nl0 only; way to -cure jhese people is to let' them take their own . medicine.- Let Mr. Polk knock the Tariff in the head, t and in so , doing, he will j knock some sound sepse lato them . Iam ot those .who think the enemies of the Tariff should have a trial of ihoir experiment. It will ultimately secure the permanency of the Tariff Pennsylvania and New York elected Mr. Polk; let them reap what they have sown Jet them enjoy the' firuits of their labors; it is fair it is justice. ;. '" w . r . , - CrrOur readers may expect to hearweekly the doings of bur Logisialure from our . Representative, who has kindly promised U3 a condensed report of the proceedings of both . bodies. His first communication will appear , la. our next paper." " 0T A gentleman who has been traveling through our State, has' written a jetter to a friend in New York, which is copied into the Tribune. He -says: "An intelligent friend of mine has josl returned from a tour on the Wabash. lie tells me that thewhole of that portion .of the JState will come rrp to the Legislature wiih the determination to do something towards ;he payment of the interest of our State debt jn order to raise the means of finishing the canal to Evansville, on the Ohio river. What will be done i cannot say, but tliink it .highly probable xbar some definite action . will be had on the part of our Legislature this winter." J- - - We hope the writer may be correct in his information. There never can be a better time to commence the work, doing something towards paying the interest on ourdebt -than the present, .

THE FAIR. We are requested by the1

Ladies to inform our citizens and all others who feel an interest in the matter, that the Fair for the"benefit of the Episcopal Church, wil be held on next Wednesday week, the 17th inst., in the. brick house pn First St. lately occupied by Mr. Wm. M. Walker. The Ladies hav'j been for some- considerable length of time, and at much trouble and expense, preparing article for the fair, and haying, as they brieve, performed their duty, urgently solicit the aid of the gentlemen in accomplishing the object or which it is got up the releasing the Cburcn from debt."We are satisfied,; from the " acknowledged taste of our lad'ie3, that the articles to be ofered will present a , rich display, and cannot fail to meet with purchasers. weaie re uested to say no "charge will be made for dmission. . " rVr-YVe were invited a few days since to view a. beautiful picture of the" Assumption r - , . . -'-. ately received as a present to the Catholic Church in this place from Europe. It issaid to be a copy from Guide, and as far as we are capable of Judging from companngitwit other fine copies of differint subjects from the same artist, and the advice of one bet ter qualified than ourse.lf to criticise is no doubt a true copy.- The conception is grand the figures drawn with accuracy, are group ed in" elegance "and ease, and of "unrivale beauty ot expression.- xho coloring, is in the claro-obscuro style, for which the artist was so justly celebrated, greeting the ey iri perfect smoothness of tincts,' as chords of softess music to the ear.. - Those who look upon the picture will fee bound to give credit to the copyist, and ad miration to the inimitable Guido. t . . O-In another column will be found the proceedings of a Canal meeting held at Terre Haute; It will be seen by a perusal of these'proceedings that the people of that section) as we believe every, other, are tak ing the right view of the course to be persued by. the State in the matter of our debt. The payment of the interest on our public debt must be resumed. Arrangements can be made satisfactory te our bond holders without bringing oppression upon our people; and called on as they, are by the voice of their constituents, our Legislators can not longer delay in, the matter without winning for themselves the charge of unfaithful and unprincipled public servants. .' The Express, in noticing these proceeding?, says; peupJC of V;go,and as-sucH, 5t will be entitled to much consideration at the hands of our representatives, in the next General Assembly of Indiana. This State by her accredited agents, has heretofore given her solemn promises for the performance of certain things and the time has arrived when thcxedemption of that promise eannot be longer "v'u;i",i iiuuui iiiiiiy a sugnia to our name maimany years would not wipe. -out. To show the etrec't of a single honorable sentiment, which is worthy of being had in constant .remembrance by every public man, we yive a suon scrap irom authentic: history. Shortly before the death of" the Duke ol Knrtfmrirltr Im .nn . . . . o j j "o picseuiai a caoinet coun cil, in.whicii 4t was proposed to violate a treaty, in order to secure great advantages to France. Reasons of state were abundant ly ottered to justify the deed of perfidy.' The Duke heard them all in silence, and when they had finished, he closed the conference by laying bis hand upon the instrument, and saying with emphasis, "Gentlemen there is a treaty." it 13 needless to say that the coun cu were over-whelmed with the sublimity of luo.seiuuneni, ana tne grandeur of the. man, auu agreea to sustain their treaty, let the nenor,.integtity,an-untarnished public taith; vrrv ucmia rituesanu distinction,: with that is a synonym to perfidy." ; -1 T"t. II .1 ry - - a name c .lexuiiiirjai uazette reterring tp par ties in the next Coogress, says, "Our speculation is, that the party is strong enough and will carry their plans, whenever'they agree among themselves, in caucus, to support any particular measure. If they can get a majority in caucus to agree to a . repeal of the u icjrooicu uor can vv tug opposition nor the defection of a few Locofocoa, prevent that step. So with " other matters, the Oregon included." ', We say, let them do their worst. Let them break down the Tariff, enact the Sub-Treasury, involve the country in war, and do any other act that a caucus make dictate," and if they don't find their heels flying higher than their heads, (although we believe both should be in the air at once,) say were are no prophet. OLn .Winter is upon us. For the last week the cold has been more severe than was known atan'y time during last winter. Snow has beer0ying. upon the ground for a week, and .there;. has been some sleighing done the last dVjror two past, but'on what we should calL rather slim capital. Horse flesh suffered some so did cold feet and hot punch but that was to be expected.

isesumaieu ai . wheat crop of 1812, which was the largest ever previously raised in the United States, was 103,000,000. The increase ot ,UU0,000, shows not les3 the large additional amount of land brought under cultivation, lan the genial character of the last summer. The crop of Michigan is comparatively lar ger than that of any other State in the Un ion." With a population ot not over 4UU,uuu she raised this year at least 700,000 bush els of wheat. It is estimated that Illinois has this year a surplus of.G.000,000 bushels. An advance of Id cents per ousnei wouia more than pay the interest of the State debt. The correspondent of the Baltimore Pat riot, who is excellent authority in such mat ters, says that MivBuchanau leaves the Cab inet, Judgeship or 00 Judgeship', He can nnt And will not remain. . He is in no humor to commit such a glaring act of self stultification! Mr. Jonn x. iviason prouauiy sue " . m ir IT V 1 Li ceedshim., ; - THE U. S. SENATE. The editor o the U. 3. Gazette in noticing the materia that at present make up the Senate of th United States, and comparing the leaders o the Locofoco party. with the leaders of the Whig party, says: Mr. McDufiie, though an able and earnest speaker, lacks the weight of character and experience which a leader in the Senate of the United Stales should possess jn emergen cies. lie comes to the aid of his party wit ardent zeal, but he so frequently forgets the rrreat interests of the nation of the U, States and confines himself to those of the nation of South Carolina, that fears of his wound in? his friends quite outweigh the hopas o his vanquishing his opponents. Mr. Mc Dufne,s talents are those which belong to a minority man... He attacks better than de fends, and he speaks with so much abandonment, that he cannot be entrusted with a position of great responsibility. His talents are great, but not commanding; his elo quence pleasing, but not instructive; and his 1 r .t . ,1 arguments are so cienciem in logic, uiai mey can never -convince an opponent, or do much more than please a friend. Mr. Benton is evidently the great man of the administration side in the Senate. He deals heavy blows, and on subjects that he has well studied, he deals them skilfully; but it is doubtful whether he is altogether of the administration side whether the administra tion has vet been able to secure the whole of his services tor the whole of its measures Mr. Benton has made himself felt and feared in the Senate: but that latter quality is not the one most desired, in a time when the par ly evidently much divided. Some one who ; has tint vet fairlv recovered from the blows -iTr-itncaviiiii iilill 111 a U'JSllluu wisure S nim vere' in he may disappoint his friends, with regard la his power to weild the democracy of the Sen ate. 1 his would be a triumph, indeed, over the man who has so long held himself with out an equal in his own party in the Senate bo true a3 a politician lives, so true will his time come.. If he has been great and tyran nical, oe will be made to teel the sting of the wasp upon winch he has wantonly trodden bo true as he ia small and injured, so true may he hnd the time to strike and be felt. Colonel Benton will probably know this betore next July. ; The administration Is poorly provided with talents in the Senate. It has voters, hut not spe3Kera. When Mr, Woodbury heard that fellas Wiight had been elected Governor, it is saia mat ne exclaimed, "why, do they think t van sustain um ouniue aione t tiis ex clamation was not "unwarranted by circumstances. The gentlemen whom we have reterred are not favorites, and are, therefore not file leaders. ' Silas Wright was the man mat saved his party in the Senate of the IJ States, as he d id in the election of his own states Lie professed adherence to no fac tion. UiS had no quarrel to settle with any man of them all; and while be was altogeth er a party man, he contrived to avoid giving personal offence to any member, even of the ' mi upposue party, i hough not possessed ol the order of talents which has been ascribed to him, he has yet much experience, much observation, and these are great things with the multitude; and, .' indeed, the greatest thing, for talents are nothing without them. Combined with integrity, they make the great man. But though Mr. Wright lacked the range of talents that his friends imputed to l T i!H L . mm,-aim his tact, ins nahitual courtesy, hisapparrent disinterestedness, made him. emiuu.ij uociui, unu gave a consequence to his departure Irom the Senate, which justified the Temark -of Mr. , Woodbury. But even Mr.; Woodbury has now gone. If he i.ijuicu iui uis uanyi wnen he was there to sustain its character, (we speak not now of measrwes what may be expected now? On the other side of the Senate are Daniel Webster, and his gifted associate. Masuw.,u,t viauu uisuiicuon in tins ren- . . . mi fi . . r rcse;iianonr . i ne senators from New Jer sey are worthy of note. Delaware, true to i.ersfijr, ana ner lotty credit, has a splendid representation in the Senate. John M.Clayton, whose eloquence is very effective, and it will now be felt, is there to sustain the great measures and the credit of the party and there is Thomas Clayton, "the standard whig," whose industry, care, and laborious attention to duties, deserve the thanks, and earn the respect of all. Crittenden and Morehead are there from Kentucky, and Corwin from Ohio; and there is Mangum, of North Carolina, a Senator on whose service the nation may count with con- , . ..vi. .itin an panics me nighest praise as presiding officer of that body and wherever he has been. placed, he has more than equalled the expectation which had been formed of his services. Surely, with such men, and many yet to back them' the Senate of the United States may yet be looked to as the bulwaik of republican mea sures, and the example of republican dignity.

NDIANAPOLIS CORRESPONDENCE.

Indianapolis, Nov. 26, 1845.. Dear Chandler Yonr letter of the 18th inst., requesting me to furnish you with an occusional 'Pen and Ink Sketch' of men and things in this renowned city, was duly recei ved, and if I can afford the readers of your journal any information or amusement, it will be a pleasure to me to comply with your re quest. Phis city has improved considerably since I wa3 here, two years ago. it presents a much' more business, appearance than 3 bu would, expect to see in a place so far in -the interior of the State." The completion bf the Madison Rail Road to this point, (which suppose is no longer problematical,) is des tined to operate powertully tor good on tne growth and future prospects of Indianapolis. But this is not all, nor even a tithe of the ad vantages to be derived by the State from the completion of that work. Already the farm ers along the Rail Road ate awakening to the imuortancebfits speedy completion. The 4 a m road is now completed to Edinburgh, a dis tnnce of some fifty-five miles from Madison and the producer, who was last year, obliged to sell his wheat at ruinously .low prices in the interior, or pay thirty cents per bushel fo having it carried to a river market, can now transport it to Madison for seven cents pe bushel. A large number of hands are at work on the unfinished portion .of the road and one year more the puff of the Locomo tive will .be heird in streets of Indianapoli a. Nor is this all. The people of Shelby; county, seeing the advantages to be derived from this mode of transportation, are determined not to be without it, and are now devising ways aud means for the construction of a lateral branch from Edinburgh to the town of Shelby, a disrance of eighteen miles. This is to be accomplished by' individual .enterprise, and I should not be surprised if this branch is completed by the lime the main stem is finished to this city. Will not the de velopment of such a spirit in the interior, arouse your people in the Pocket to a sense of their own interest? It is fashionable I know for the citizens of one section of the State to be jealous of the prosperity of other sec tions; but this is not the proper spirit. Let not Madison bu jealous of Evansville, nor Evansville of Madison, but let each attend to her own ..interests .without repining at the prosperity of the other. I have heard it rumored that some of the people of Terre Haute and Vincennes have TTesisTlgor oy'lrwlioreinterested in the prosperity of the Slate, and especially by the people along the line of your Canal. The proposition to which I allude is this that the completion of the Wabash and Erie Canal shall be abandoned, and instead thereof, that a Rail Road shall be constructed from Terre Haute to Evansville, by way of Vincennes The lands granted by Congress for the com pletion of your Canal, could not be applied to the construction ofa rail road, unless Con gress should authorise their being diverted from the purpose for which they were origi nally granted. This would inevitably cause much delay," and if even a rail road would answer a better purpose than the canal (which it certainly would not) there is scarcely a probability that Congress would sanction any such application of the lands. Certain it is that the grant could not have been originally obtained for a rail road. One of the most potent arguments urged upou Congress was that more than half a million of dollars had been expended by the State 00 the Canal and that this would be a dead loss unless Congress should come to the rescue. Shall the Legislature and people, now, that the grant has been obtained on the faith of such representations, falsify their own arguments by proposing to abandon the very work in fa vor of which they have made such frequed appeals, uur, enougn 01 tins tor the pre sent.,, ' It will no doubt afford you and many ol your readers, much pleasure to be informed that the Independent Order of Odd Fel lows is flourishing most gloriously in this place. You are doubtless aware that an ef fort will be made to remove the Grand Lodge to Indianapolis, and why it should be pppos by any I am at a loss to conceive. The ben efits of the Order are beginning to be appre ciated by the mass of the people, and if those out of its pale knew the advantages it affords to its members when absent from home, they would not be slow to enlist themselves un der its banner. Tbe Supreme Court is now in session, & although I do not profess to know much about law matters, yet I may be permitted to say that I am highly pleased with the manner of doing business in that Court. There is no confusion, no long winded speeches, but eve ry thing is done quietly, and business rather than display seems to be the order of the day. I remarked that one case from your county was yesterday decided. It was an ndictment against your Uoard ot Commis sioners for not levying a load tax in 1841. The indictment was held to be insufficient, and the judgment of the Circuit Court re versed. (

At a meeting of the citizensof Vigo county, at the Court-house in Terre-haute, on Saturdav the 22d inst.. assembled according to previous notice, George Htjssey, t.sq., was j , - , called to the chair, and Char!e3 Urutt ap - Dointed Secretary, Col. Thos. II. Blake, in an appropriate ad dress, explained the object of the meeting, and concluded by ottering the lollosving resolution, viz; Resoised, That a committee of five members be ippointcd by the chair, to prepare and report resolutions expressive of the sense of this meeting, S. G. Dodge, Esq., then addressed the meeting, after which, the above resolution was unamously adopted Rose, S, G, Dodge and James II, Henry, the committee, as required by the resolution, who, after a short retirement, made the following ' ; . '- REPORT. Whereas, it is the right of the people to come together in public meeting, whenever they desire to make known their wants and express their opinions upon mailers which concern them, and it is deemed their' duty tp do so at this time, when subjects, of great public interest are pending; therefore, Resolved, That in the opinion of this mee ting, the slow progress made in the consttuction of the Wabash &. Erie Canal from La fayette to Terre-Haute, is just cause of solicitude and alarm, and that a full and prompt investigation by the General Assembly of all matters Connected with such an uulooked for delay, is imperiously demanded by the public interest. r 1 . Resolved, That the completion of the Canal from this place to Evansville, is considered necessary to effect the object originally and at all times contemplated by the friends of the work, to-wit: to establish a safe certain and uninterrupted intercourse between Lake Erie and the Ohio River,' whenever the lormer is navigable. . , Rcsohed, '1 hat the immense , amount of transportation during the past season on the Miami extension canal, of goods desiined for points south of Evansville, iii the" States of Kentucky, Tennessee, Illiuoisand Missouri, afford a forcible illustration of the importance of this work, and. the injury the State, is now sustaining for the want of it. Resolved, That we deem the observance of public faith a sacred duty, and therefore that the payment of interest on the public debt should be resumed at an early ray, on some basis satisfactory to the parties and least oppressive to tne people. Resolved, That we believe the through completion of the Wabash & Erie Canal to Evansville, promises greater facilities o the State for the payment of her . public debt than any other mode designated, and that as the State has been unfortunate in the con struction of such works, it be preferable, if it can be done, to make some arrangement with the bond-holders to complete the canal, including 111 the same the land recently gran ted by Congress for that object, to be dispo sed of by transferor otherwise. Resolved, That the Senator of this Sena torial District, and the Representatives of this country, in the General Assembly, be, and they are hereby instructed, to use their best exertions for the adoption of such measures as will expedite the completion of the canal to this place, as a primary step in the progress of the work now to be continued, and of such other measures as will carry out the views of this meeting upon the oilier subjects referred to.

They begin to feel, if not to acknowledge the impracticability of any party maintaining a separate organization, based a single principle, having nothing in common with the fundamental questions of policy which divided the country. So long as this Republic endures, so long must two great parties exist one essentially conservative the other essentially destructive one desirous of erecting barriers and bulwarks against the torrent of radical innovation the other terming such innovation progress, and anxious te let its flood overspread the land. Upon the corelative question which spring from this division of patties, each takes its stand, and for a third petty faction to rear its front, in tho hope of absorbing one or both these parties, is about as wise and practicable an idea, as for. a fool to attemp to check the progress ofa locomotive by standing on the track and spreading forth his hand3. The same fate would await both the rash experi- - - .'... TJie9e conclusions, though somewhat tar dily, would seem to have impressed themselves upon the understandings of the New York Natives. They know, that though tbe Whigs will not join with - them in persecution of foreigners as a class) that party' are united in the desire to effect such reforms. either in the Naturalization laws themselves, or the mode of their administration, as will effectually close the avenues to fraud, and maintain the purity of tbe elective franchise.. They know too . that they can accomplish nothing, and that in striving to keep up a separate organization, they work nothing but mischief defeating themselves, and securing the success of Locofbcoism. These considerations, now that their passions haye oeen cooled by a lew salutary reverses, are full of iorce and significancy to the honest members of the American Republican party, and hence the article from which we have quoted, which we think points to a disbanding of the Native forces at no distant day.
