Green, Madison, Add former reluras, Leaving 3 majority still for Mr. Goggin. Ttie law of Virginia makes it incumbent on the person conducting the elections if, in case of ram or me of water course many voters have been prevented from attending to keep the polls open for thcee days at the request of any one or more of the candidates or their agents. Mr. Gilmer has stated under his signature that he did not request that the polls should be kept open, and Mr. Goggin affirms that neither he not his agent made such request. Mr. Botts founds his claims to the seat now occupied by Mr. Jones, first on the ground that he receded a majority of the legal votes, and second that by the election in Chesterfield county, where Mr. Jones received 314 majori ty, was null and voiJ, there being but one poll keeper, when the law expressly requires more than one. Mr. B uts c mtends likewise taat the Sheriff onductiog the election at Poor's precmt.Goochl5itl county, neglected and omitted to be sworn. He, however, waives the right to hold the scat on the ground of havin received a majority of legal votes, and is wifling to submit the legal questions on the other grounds, which, if decided in his favor, he pledges himself to vacate his seal and refer the question back to the people, that there may be a full and fair expression of the popular will. The memorial of Mr. Botts is drawn up most ably and takes noble ground, showing mast conclusively his reliance on the people of his district to sustain him, if the question is again allowed to go before them. Mr. Jones received ins certificate upon a presumed jority of 32. maPenuile Education.

Her property is real property. Is sure of that. It is in the funds. Should say that it was not personal property, as it was not anything about her person.

INDIANA LEGISLATURE.

Wednesday, Dec. 20, 1843. HOUSE. Mr. James, from a select committer runfirl. I back the bill for the establishment of the! count, of oh'S h amendment, striking out and inserting substitute Wfrih.,r, ih;

bounds of the new county. &c. The counties' .

Mr. James said, this has been a perplexing question in the county of Dearborn for the past 30 years. He entered into the history of the question connected with this subject, and the difficulties which have heretofore attendi i - 119 Preenlal"n before the Legislature. rigm.as a minority of the committee, maue an aa verse report, that the new county does not contain the number of acres, nriiher will the county of Dearborn contain the necessary number of acres that difficulties will hereafter arise, in consequence of the effotts that will hereafter be made to gain territory fro.n other counties, and that great and continued expense iil be caused by the legislation incident thereto. Mr. Wright said, that to adopt the gentleman's bill not allay excitement. Dearborn has I already caused great excitement in legislating in reference to her county seat. The county seat of the new county will be located within three miles of Switzerland county, and efforts will hereafter be made to attach a part of Switzerland to this new county. Mr. Macy said, it was admitted that the new county does not contain the territory requisite i for old counties; but the Constitution presents no barrier to the establishment of this newcounty, although small in territory. Mr. Hanna said, the territory proposed to beset off as ar.sw countv. is onlv comnosed , of about five miles square. It would besetting a bad precedent, and other counties might follow it, greatly to the injury of the county, as well as of expense to the State. Mr. Macy said, his friend from Wayne, perhaps, thought he stood on ticklish ground in regara to me question. He resided at the centre of that county, and it had been whisper ed, mat the county of ayne might be divided, and one county seat established at Richmond and another at Cambridge City; but the county of Dearborn was very differently situated. It was a grievous burthen for the citizens of the new county to go to the county seat. Had Dearborn been situated like Wayne, with re gard to communication from one point to ano ther, no petition or question would have been brought in here. Furtherremarks were madeby Mess. Wright. James, and Spicknall. Mr. Hanna said, the great fault in our policy had been to make too many small counties. 1 ft m ... . .. unto naa a Constitutional provision that no county should contain less than four hundred square miles, and the same provision was in our own Constitution with regard to old counties. and it was no doubt the intention that this provision should extend to all counties, although not so expressed, and many small counties had seen established; which was one of the main reasons that had caused so large a number of representatives on this floor and that of the Senate. Mr. Norvell moved to amend the amendment, so that the new county should ever re main as at present located, without any effort to interfere with other counties; which was not adopted. The question recurred on concurring in the amendment of the committee, and decided in the affirmative ayes 87, noes 4. The bill was then ordered to be engrossed Lafayette Panic of Cincinnati.

Money Mutters in Philadelphia. Bicknell' Reporter says: Good notes ate readily discounted at 4 ncr cent, and some of the banks say they are doing a good business even at this rate, inasmuch as they discount, not only with their capital but with the heavy amount of deposits which have been confided to their keeping. No change in country paper and there is none in the sale of specie. Money Matters in Boston. The Boston Post in its review of the Money Market for the week, says a very material advance has been obtained in the sold or dividend stock, esoecially railroads, whose semi-annual accounts are now making up. A large proportion of the loose raniial on deposit in our Banks is derived from the fat dividends declared by our cotton factories, i ?utaui; .uiuy.uue3, ami other corporations, within three or four months. For instance the gemmae company made a dividend of 10 per cent, for six months on its great capital of i.iu,uuu ana other Lowellcompanies either nave er soon will make, dividends at 5 or per ceni. lor tne same length of time. Then if we estimate the amount of money paid out by insurance companies in their recent semi annual dividends of 5 to 20 per cent., we have in all a very large aggregate. All iko ... r..l 1 r . vnaiineis 01 investment are full to overflowing, and from the disUste of our capitalists to mortgages, the result is an over flow of deposite in the banks.
