INDIANA STATE BONDS. We find the letter appended in the Indiana State Sentinel. It is from our creditors in London, and is spread before the people of Indiana, at the request of the individual bondholders. Gov. Bigger has thus performed his duty to the foreign creditor, and at the same time, exposed to his fellow citizens the condition of our engagements abroad. They should ponder well on this letter, and then act as becomes a debt-paying and debt-abiding People. There will be "no two opinions" about the

is the trouble: To Samuel Bigger, Esa., Governor of the State of Indiana: Sir: In consequence of the recent proceedings of the Legislature of Indiana with respect to the debt contracted by that State, we, the undersigned, being the holders of the Bonds of the State, resident in England, are compelled to address you and to the people over which tou preside, our serious remonstrance. The Interest actually due upon these Bonds is unpa'Jj no provision has been made for the qav4ation of the interest now in arrear, nor 'jortie punctual discharge of the future dividends as they shall become due; whilst the

Taxes which had been assigned, by an act of

the legislature of 1841, for securing the payneat of the interest, have as we are informed, been either repealed or appropriated to other purposes. The circumstances uuder jwhich we address tou, compel us to adopt language which, with

out violating the respect due to the persiding

Authority of an Independent State, shall be satiable to the extraordinary character of the emergency. "When public faith is at issue, and the honor and integrity of a free people are brought under question, we are bound to state

our complaints and demands in plain and unequivocal terms. f The Bonds which we hold declare, in the clearest manner, that the State of Indiana is indebted to the Bearer of each Bond, whoever he may be, for the payment of the interest as it becomes due, and of the principal sum at a time fixed. They further set forth that this obligation on the part of the State is contracted under the authority of an act of the legislature

passed for that special purpose, and they concluded with the distinct declaration that for the

payment "of the interest and the redemption of

the nrineinal. the faith of the Mate ot Indiana

i , i is irrecovably pledged." The English who invested their money in these securities, did so in full reliance upon the character of the people, upon a due consideration of the condit ion and promising prospects of the State, and of the purposes of public utility for which the Bonds were understood to be issued. Resting their confidence upon

these grounds, and acting upon the belief that the money which thev lent was destined to be

applied in promoting the development of the resources and advancing the prosperity of an , industrious and rising people, they required no exorbitant rate of interest, but purchased the Bonds on terms which gave no more than fair remuneration for lending the capital in a distant land. In respect therefore, to our claim upon the State arising upon the Bonds now in our possession, there exists no ground whatever, not the slightest shadow of a pretence, upon Tfiieh it can be houestly or honorably ques

tioned. If Indiana has acted imprudently by incur

ring a heavier debt than she gave us reason to believe she intended to do; or if she has indiscreetly entrusted any portion of her Bonds to incautious agents or dishonest contractors

among her own countrymen of the United

States, without taking adequate care to secure

the faithful discharge of the obligation or debts these persons to her, these circumstances famish no justification or excuse for the non-

tofilment of her contract with us. That contract is complete in all its forms. Its language is clear and distinct, incapable of any doubtful interpretations, and has never been questioned

"y the Executive or Legislative authorities of Indiana, during the period of several years hieh has elapsed before the Bonds were issued.

Neither can we believe that the amount of

the Bonds which are to be provided for is such

w the State of Indiana would find it difficult to discharge. But it is unnecessary, and indeed,

aardly proper for us to enter into this question

Aeither the utility or otherwise of the past

expenditure of the State, nor the greater or less degree of pressure which the punctual and honorable discharge of their engagements may

impose upon the people of Indiana, can afford

"y ground for invalidating the claims of those

ho have lent their money to the State in good tab. and upon conditions which are simple

aa explicit.

Every honest and wise people will cheerful-

Fmake whatever efforts may be requisite, and sftmit to the sacrifices necessary, for the pre

station of its credit and the redemption of its faith, solemnitvnledffed. As mvlitnrs nf the

ae interest is now unpaid for two half

-eWs. We abstained from anv remark on the

payment of that due in July last, because "fwere aware that the legislature of the State 111 the preceding session, had adopted the report of the Judiciary Committee, on the 22d

State of Indiana. We waited, therefore, till the legislature should again reassemble, in full confidence that it would adopt such further measures as might be necessary to do justice to the Bond-holders. It is with the greatest astonishment, therefore that Ave have recently learned, that in the session of the present year, the legislature has repealed the tax bill passed on the 13th Febuary, 1841, which distinctly pledged certain taxes for the payment of the interest of the debt, and has separated without making any provision whatever for the liquidating the claims of the Bond-holders of the State. This is an occurrence of the gravest character. It is, we believe, the first instance in the history of of the world, in which any legislative assembly, representing the people of a sovereign State, has deliberately refused to recognize its obligations; and it is scarcely credible that this can have occured in one of the States of the North American union. The effect of this procedure has been to occasion an universal discredit on every security originating in the United States. States bound together by a common union must, in the estimation of the world at large, possess a common character, and the honor or disgrace which may fall upon any one of them must seriously affect the interest and reputation of all others with which it is united. In addressing this remonstrance to you, as Governor of the State of Indiana, we consider that we are making a solemn appeal to the honor, to the integrity, and to the public principle of the people of that State. We are confident

that we are appealing to a community sensible of these high considerations, and that our appeal will meet with the only proper response. It is, therefore, our wish and request that it

be made known generally to the people of

LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS. Yes my hearers every flower has a sentiment to impart; and if you'll keep awake long enough I'll particularise a little. The rose speaks of beauty it is called the Queen of Flowers (not Queen Victoria she's a pond-lil-ly surrounded by bull-frogs and water-lizards) it blooms and looks lovely but for a short time its blushing petals soon fade, and the rough winds scatter them abroad; telling that beauty is evanescent, and won't stand the scrubbish of time. It is guarded by thorns, the same as some girls are all stuck round with pins cautioning the embracers of beauty lo look wild, or they may get scratched a few. The myrtle is always full of hope and expectation it keeps green, and never turns pale with disappointment. When a young man sends a myrtle to his sweet-heart, she Las a right to expect a visit from him instanter; because the vegetable can't lie. The jessamine is a pretty little flower, and I hope my young female hearers will heed its moral. It is an emblem of simplicity; and shows that a girl's henrt is free from guile not too fond of setting traps is the corner-stone of beauty. It braves the storm of winter, as an artless heart does the storms and blasts of adversity and ill-luck. The hollyhock is ambition itself its blossoms seem to strive for the ascendency on the parent stem; and those nearest the top have the toughest time of it in a gale. People generally don't know how cold 'tis on the top of Mount Ambition. The yellow day lily represents coquetry because its flowers don't last over a day. So it is with all coquets they have their day, as well as dogs; and the dogs of it is, they ar'nt worth a tinker's dog when they are in full blossom.
