viit the Indiana Journal. GOVERNOR DIGGER. WHAT HAS HE DONE? This is the question ofihe Locofocos. "What "ha Gov. Bigirr recom mended for the honor "or relief 'f the People?" is their impudent inquiry. The reader remembers our quotations, from the Governor's first Message, iu our last. We proceed now to others. In his very first Message, Gov. Bigger took the following cautious and proper ground iu reference to the S'ate Ootids and public officers. Read it: "General enactments, granting extensive

discretionary power to public oflicers, are calculated to defeat the design with which the Legislature was conMittied. Looking to the past, I feel it my duty to recommend that everything respecting the finances and obligations of the Sute. and the payment of the interest accruing on her debts, should be regulated by law, a id not be left hereafter to the discretion or individual responsibility of public agents. Our bonds frequently have been sold on time, and the result is a sufficient admonition, not to pait with them under any circumstances, unless they can be disposed of on such terms as will secure the money at the time of their delivery. And in meeting the contracts and liabilities of the State, iu endeavoring to carry out any course of policy which may be adopted hereafter; the credit of the State should be established on such a firm basis that no emergency could force us into a disposal of our bonds for less than their par amount." What think the people of the following extract from the same message of Gov. Bigger? Is it good doctrine? Is it just? Is it democratic? 'Your attention is also solicited to the unequal assessments of real estate in the different counties, with a view of providing for their equalization. Officers not bound to any correspondence with each other, must necessarily make very different estimates of lands which are equal in value. Some alteration of the law is necessary on another ground. The counties which are to reap the advantages to be derived from the public works, ought in

justice to be required to sustain an amount of

taxation bearing a more equitable proportion ti those advantages, than will be found to be the case under the practical operation of the existing law." Subjoined, from the same message, is Gov. Biggefs plan of relief to the People, as opposed to James Whitcomb's Free Trade and no distribution policy. Is money so plenty, that the six millions five hundred thousand dollars,

due to Indiana, shall be thrown array, as Mr

only object is to s picuhte fit the expense of the people. Banks exist because they are profitable to the stockholder and the borrower; although they would not be worth a moment's legislation if their benefits extended no further. They are not objectionable simply because every man in the comninniny is not accommodated with loans, if those who borrow throw the money into circulation through the ordinary channels of business and trade. Nevertheless as far as their means will permit, they should be required to pursue a liberal and enlarged policy, in aiding all the active branches of bti-

ness Inch may require assistance. A liber-

REYOLUTIONARY EVENTS. Death of Baron De Kalb. Immediately on receiving orders of departure we waited on the good old De Kalb to take our leave, and to express our deep regret Jut parting with him. 'It is with gieat regret, my dear sir, that I part with you,' said he, 'because I feel a presentiment that c pnit to meet no more. We told him we hope! heiter things. 'Oh no,' he replied, 'it is impossible. War is a kind of game that has its fixed rules, whereby, w hen we are well acquainted with them we can pre tty correctly tell how the trial will

MAGNIFICENT PHENOMENON. We are indebted to an intelligent and scientific friend in Beaufort for the follow ing interesting letter. The phenomena of several mock suns was witnessed here some mornings before, but they

were in motion and near the sun, sometimes passing over his rim, and were unaccompanied by the ring encompassing the horizon w hich is here described. Charleston Mer. Beaitobt, April 2'2d, 1843. This morning about 8 o'clock, the most beautiful phenomenon parhaps ever beheld was seen by the inhabitants of Beaufort.

We quote what follows: ''The payment of our State debt is looked upon by some as almost impossible.

To die is the irrevisible decree of Him who made us. Then what joy to be able to meet death without dismay? Thank God, this is

my case. The happiness of man is my w ish; that happiness I deem inconsistent with slavery. And to avert so great an evil from an in-j nocent people, 1 will gladly meet the British to-morrow, at any odds whatever." As he spoke this a fire flashed from his eyes, w hich seemed to me to demonstrate the divinity of virtue, and the immortality of the soul. We left him with feelings which I shall never forget, while memory retains her seat in my brain. It was on the morning of August 15th, 1780, that w e left the army in a good position, near Rugeley's Mills, twelve miles from Camden, where the enejuy lay. At ten that night, orders were given to march and surprise the enemy who had at the same time commenced a march to surprise the Americans. To their mutual astonishment the advance of the to armies met at two o'clock, and began firing at each other. It wassoon discontinued by both parties, who appeared willing to leave the mat'.er to be decided by day-light. A

council of war w as called, in w hich De Kalb

advised that the army should fall back to Ruge-

ey's Mills; and wait to be attacked. Gen.

Gates not only rejected this excellent counsel, but threw out insinuation that it originated in

fear. I pon this the brave old man leaped from his horse and plat ed himself at the head of his command on foot, saying w ithconsider-

able warmth, "Well sir, perhaps a few hours

will show who are the brave."

As day-light increased the frightened militia

began to discover the woods reddened oil over

with the scarlet uniforms of the British army,

which soon, with rattling drums and thundering cannon, come rushing on to the charge;

and they scarcely waited to give them a dis

ant fire before they broke, and fled in every

direction. General Gates clapped spurs to

his horse.as he said."o bring the rascals back." How ever, he did not bring himself back, nor

left of the sun, w ith more splendor than the

real sun, though, exreptingthe ring, there was not the faintest cloud or even haze in that part of the heavens. From each side of the sun a pencil of rays of the most intense whiteness extended along the ring to each parhelion, the diameters of these pencils being at the sun equal to his, and at each parhelion the same as atiis diameter. It may here be stated that the

parhelion on the right hand of the sun was

considerably less than the other, and that the

ring in that part did not not much exceed two and a half degress in diameter. These two numbers, four and two and a half degree , were the maximum thickness of the whole ling. At the distance of forty-two degrees

further off were tw o other parhelions, on each

side still of the sun, and both in the ring and

The judge explained this sentence t the

The reason why the law requires this year's imprisonment, before the highest punishment of death is inflicted, was, that if any new facts should be brought to light, proving the innocence of the convicted man, he might have the benefit of them and also that he might have lime to prepare for death.
