Taking Viiginiaj and Tennessee ns the criterion of the Southern vote, the most rational conclusion is, that North Carolina. Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi go for Va.i Curcn. Missouri certainly does. There is some prospect 'that Illinois may not be for Van. On the other hand, we cannot reas
onably doubt but that Van gets Rhode Island and New- Jersey. Hence his election by the
electoral college is certain. Let our friends make up their nvnds to this result, and compose themselves accordingly. If disappointed, it must be an agreeable disappointment.

EMILTUIOSIE. rgHE sulwcriber hereby gives notice that hs M. will expose at public sale on the 20th and 30th days of Novendier next, from two to three hundred lots m the town of 15 LTI.MOItE, situated on White N uter iiiver. Franklin County, Indiana. For many years past, the subscriber has been ardently solicited to lay cit a town at this point, and dispose of lots; but ha always heretofore refused on the ground of his irreconcilable aversion to trifling country villages, whose populations are mado up too irequer.tly of the idle;, dissolute, and "internperate portions of the community. Hut believing thatsn.ee the pasage.of the Internal Improvement bill, there are conferred upon this site, in adpition to the universally acknowledged natural advantages it possesses, others that will render i t a point of preat importance for business of evory kind, and secure the erection of a town not surpassed by many in the .State, he l.is become convinced that it is his duty to open the wav for th accommodation of the coiuitrv, and to 'meet tho eager wishes of the numerous applicants who are desirous of establishing themselves at so eligibel a spot. Baltimore has heretofore bee;, cxtenivelvr known by tlie name of CohacMs .Mills, nnd fo'r many yeais has been a place of considerable busiV" n- If VaWble IVoporty, Carding and I-ullmg Machinery, Tannery, and extensive Mercantile establishment; and various Mechanic shops have caused it to be regarded us the centre of business to a large tract of surrounding country. For beauty, fertility of soil, and advanced state" of improvement, this neighborhood is not excelled by any m the stat ?. ,s re-ards the celubritv of the proposed site for the town,- it is unrivalled. During the last 10 years the subscriber has resided in r n.?'?Ijb"I'l-"''; H.ere has been a population of from . 0 to 00 souls at this place, and but a sinrrh, death has occurred during that time. Ualiimore ia situated on the western side of the west branch of White Water Iiiver. The Whita Water Canal which connects the great National Rosd, in tho fertile interior of the State, with the Ohio River at Lawrenceburgh, a branch of which will n-0 to Cincinnati passes immediately through the town. Ibis Canal is already commenced, the whole lino v. i.l be soon under contract, and vigcrouslar prosecuted to a speedy completion. The proposed site is U mues from Connersviiie, 15 from Broofcville, 1G from Kushv.lle, -J2 from Orcrnsburgh, 5G from Indianapolis, and 55 from Cincinnati, situated on the K.ver and Canal. It possesses advantages of W ater I ower adequate for every purpose that may be required. At the town and for two miles and a half above it, there is sufficient fn!L ,,! .m
seasons an abundant supply of water to drive one hundred run of stones. When it is considered that a large body of the most fertile land in the state, densely populated, l,c-s immediately west cf thi point, and that for the erealer nrf r
from us entire destitution of Mill Streams, its inhabitants are compelled to resort to this place It may readily be conceived that this is one of tho siost important points for 1ms;
hnc of the (.anal. l.ywg as it docs u t, . mediate, and direct line to market, it already attracts the citizens of a consider.-,!,!,,
ette, Rush aud becatur counties; aud this attraction w,ll acquire a much wider range, and extend to many fertile counties farthar in the interior
r.orin,ana ! est as the place increases in size and importance; several tributary streams pour into White ater both from the East, in it v;;;...
on the margin of which are thri ving and populoua settlements, which for years have been dependent on this point as their centre of business. Alon-r
uiese streams are stile and cc.ur.lv roads concentrating ut this place, and connecting it with Connersviiie. HroaUvi lie, Oxford, Kushville, Greensburgh, and other intermediate towns.
Of all the necessary materials for building improvements, there is an abundant supply as Clay. Stone, I itnber, A:c. It may bo worth while to notice that the great projected Rail Road, so interesting to the South West; designed to connect Cincinnati with Charleston will unquestionably attract the business of the northern and western part of -e,?taW U,e 1,io River- in wliich evenf the White Water Canal will be the obvious channel through which this immense trade will flow In conclusion it is thought proper to intimate that as it has always been the anxious design of the proprietor to promote the interests of good morals and society, he designs in the disposition of thi.
property to secure as far us practicable these creat interests by requiring a pledge from all purchasers, without exception, that the property purchased shall never be used for lha purpose of establishing IJram Shops or Distilleries. Liberal reservations will be made for the crec. tion of places of Worship, Seminaries.Markets, tc. O.ic-third cash, or a note and security, with interest, at ninety days. Kallai.ce payable nt cny
