" Vow tUt Congress Las adjourned, wo shall enJearor to lay before our reader?, the masterly speech of Mr. Bn Ol,io, delivered Congress upon tbe Aject of Reform and Retrenchment. We arc indebted to Eq-Edgertonforacopy of it. Qengrtumen.Tte Hon. O. II. Smith, and family pawed through this place, on Lin way home on Tkurtday last. Oa Tuesday evening, the Hon. Jas. Rariden, and famtly, reached our village and passed on to his residence in Centreville, on Wednesday morning. Tbe Hon. Geo. H. Dunn, reached home, at Lawrenceburghon Friday last. ' Gottrntr Robert Lucas, of Ohio, Las beo appointed Govcnor of the New Territory of Iowa, in the place of Henry Atkiuson, resigned. The Banks of Alabama have determined not to rtume until July 1st 1830. The Hon. Fiux Gncsov, present Senator in Congress from Tennessee, has been appointed by the President of the United States, Attorney General of tbe r. S. in the place of B. 1 Butler, re$goei. - RsTAiusio. At a late term of the Wayne county Court, the grand jury presented the retailing of ?i:itout liquors as a public nuisance which ought to be prohibited by Legislative enactments. JUthbcx, the great Buffalo forger. Las been acquitted. The law was never made for the punishment of great rogue?. Tac Locsian. Election, The New Orleans picayune, of the 6th inst. contains the subjoined: Tbo returni,aa far as iLey have yet been received, show the brightest prospects for the Whig ticket throughout the State, Aa for the Govcrnoiship, Roman's election is looked for with the utmost confidence. Tbe entire delegation in Congress will doubtless be Whigs; and a large majority of the Legislature will probably be Whigs, as about twothirds of the members-elect already head from are of tbit party. Tbk Leoisl.tcrk. Mr. Osborn is no longer before the public for a seal in the next Legislature, it will be seen from his card in this paper. In thus submitting to what we have no doubt is the wish of his friends, he has manifested much of that practical good same, for which he it esteemed aa a tititen and a neighbor, aa ht evidently roust have keen defeated. That there ia a feeling abroad
prejudicial to the members of the last Legis
lature, does not admit ef a doabt. Rut if Mr. Os born intends charging us with abusing; or mislead
ing the public mind, we would respectfully, beg
leave to demur to any such imputation. We ad

iMippoee we bring forward a candidate, the consequence wolrld be that every federal candidate would unite to beat him, and when he was beat they would quarrel themselves, but if we brinx forward no candidate, the federal politicians will quarrel among themselves from the start, they would have no one in particular to defeat tut would dirett all their attention to the destruction of one another.

you will be able to succeed in electing n Van

loco focos will succeed in electing a majority of their friends to the legislature? Your
mode of warfare is too well known, you must be detected in any effort, now, to impose upon I he people. They have been too frequently
deceived by your party," not to know their du
ly in the coming election. Depend upon it.
your yarty will be greatly in the minority at
Indianapolis next winter, and whatever vou
may do in the way of trickery, will be done at
your peril. I herelore beware no loul play
come up to the contest manfull) p it a bold
tace on the matter, and should you be unsuc
cessful, as most assuredly you will be, there
will be more glory in the defeat than can be
gained by carrying) our point by intrigue.

part of BrookvilJe will necessa'y soon beC0 e fhc principal business part of the toW n Owing o the ' 71-ce.n which the canal is located p..t most of the town of Brookville a larger portion of the bus.ness which will be transacted on the Canal must either be done where these lots are laid out. or just above the business part of the town. And it is through the strong solicitation of a number of persons, that the proprietors have been induced to lay off these lots. The principal street of B.-ook-ville. and main stage Road leading from Cincinnati to Indianapolis. Cambridge $ c. through Brookville. passes this new platand is the only place this principal road is connected with the canal near Brookville. These lots, from their situation will be valuable for tho erect-on of pork houses 4-c. as a large business of that kind must necessarily be done at-this place in a few years. The Basin ol the Canal is also in the midst of these lots, consequently some of ihem must be the most valuable lots the town. Also 30 Lots, In the Northern part of the town, in Butlers old plat of Brookville. Several of these lots are also on the Canal, suited for business. There are also several of them beautifully situated Tor the erection of private residences, owing to their retired situation from the hustle and noise of business.
Also Several Out-Lots,
adjoining the town of Brookville, of different sixes; suitable, toi pasture lots Arc.
1500 Acres of Land,
Lying in almost every direction of Brookville and
adjoining the town plat- This will be sold in farms of sizo to suit purchaser.". A large portion of it is under good improvement, and some good dwelling
nouses erecteo tnereon. I he title to ail these land
and town lots are indisputable, and constitute some of the most valuable property in the White Water
valley.
Brookville is situated on the JThiie Water Ca
nal, one branch of which goes to Cincinnati, and the other to Lawrenceburgh. It is 40 mile6 North
W. of Cincinnati, S0 ISortb of Lawrenceburgh. 70
South East of Indianapolis, and 29 South of Cam
bridge City on the National Road, and surrounded
by a very rich and fertile country, producing moat
of the necessaries and luxuries of life. In the ear
ly settlement of the place, it had to contend, like all other towns in the West situated in a luxurious soil, against a disease called milk-$icknes. But it,
like the Indians, has tied before tbe hand of civilization and improvement, and for tbe last 15 years
Brookville has been as healthy as any town West
of the Mountains.
From the natural construction of tho country this place must eventually become the focus at which all tho tra!e and travel for a large portion of Indiana must concentrate, in passing to the Ohio River for a market. And the Artificial means now in progress, and which will soon be finished, are well calculated to bring about this result. The canal from the National road to Lawrenceburgh and Cincinnati is nearly finished from this place to' Lawrenceburgh, and will be ready for business this fall, and the Branch to Cincinnati will probably be finished in the course of the next season, and a large portion of the Canal from this place to Cambridge will be put undercontract before the sale of this property. There is also a turnpike '-being constructed ," on the nearest and best route from this place to Cincinnati, and will, without much doubt be finished to this place m 18 months from this time. When this is constructed, it will become tbe principal thorough-fare for the vast tide of population continually flowing between Cincinnati and the densely populated country North and West of Cincinnati. In addition to these advantages, a charter has been obtained for a Canal from liichmond down the East Fork, connecting with the other canal at this place, and from the large number of capitalists interested in the work.it is believed it will be constructed before many years. The great State Road from Hamilton, Ohio. West to Indianapolis, passes through this place. Tbe State Road from Oxford. Ohio, terminates here also. Consequently the State roads from Richmond, down the East Fork, from Cambridge City down the ridge by Connersville, from fridiafiaplis down the West Fork; from Oxford, from Hamilton, from Cincinnati, from Lawrenceburgh, from Versailles and from Greensburgb, alt concentrate at thui point, making it the focus of commerce and travel. To the tasteful eye, and the lovers of the romantic, tbe location of Brookville presents its rude, evervarying and picteresque scenery.
