Far the Indiana .mrrt. Dea Clarksos: In my last I remarked that my trip down - the river afforded favorable opportunities for seeing the country. Stopping frequently, for the captain to go out in the yawl to explore the channel, we could often go ashore. As I was in no particular hurry to get en, I very agreeably improved these occasions, in observing the geological and vegetable peculiarities of the country. I was astonished ta find myself so ignsrant of my own State. Not
having traveled below the falls before, is not apology enough. I have either been a careless reader, or travelers have been careless in descri

near New Albany, some years ago, but I yet thought that pecans were from the south. Judw. then of my surprise to find them In

and sugar tree, Either tne sou or climate un j former probably does not favor their growth. The wlga herd, in their peregrinations, yom know, pass on, and see nothing worthy of notice, unless it is a cataract, or battle field, or something striking; while to others, there is matter of thought in silent stones. Of course I profess not to belong to the former, and you need not be surprised if I should find enough for several letters in the geological structure exhibited along the Ohio River. Perhaps I
should be careful. Too much letter, without
Incident, may become dry, and if not condemned editorially, may be unreadable, and of course
useless. But in compliment to the taste of your readers, I will proceed, by saying, that the blue limestone formation, on which your beautiful town standsj and which is the lowest, geologically, of any formation in the west, is lost, near
Madison in this State, dipping under the cliff I
limestone and disappearing. A careful observer I
will soon discover the difference in the shape of the hills. Above, they were high, and gently rounded off. Here : they are lower, and often presenting craggy appearances. Hence the name cliff. The character of the stone is materially different from the former. Though somewhat dark, when burnt it is of snowy whiteness. It is from tliis formation that the celebrated Utic lime is made. It could be made any place between Jeffersonville and Madison is made at the latter place in abundance. But so far as either place is connected with lime for commerce, their craft is in danger.

Shall consent to follow thee. O, persevere, ye happy band; Firm as a rock thy truth must staad.
Temperance! 'tis a glorious cause; Effecting more than human laws; Misery and death it drives away ; Peace takes their place without delay. Ethereal bliss shall round those shine, Rescued from danger, sin and shame. A drunkard can those blessings claim. Now come, O come, and sign your name; Com sign your name, and while you live Enjoy the comfort temperance gives. C Laurel, Dec. 12, 1843.

Is driving a heavy business in manufacturing white lime. Eu this is not peculiar to tbe river.
This same stratum "crops out" a few miles north of Richmond, where you will find a town of lime makers, and continues thence to the
lakes. The stone is much harder than the blue, and hence wherever it terminates in a river you will find rapids or "falls." It is over this formation that Kiagara pours, and where it dips under the shale stratum, on the Ohio we find the "falls." After a few miles of shale we come to a sand stone formation, corresponding with the celebra
ted Portsmouth, Ohio, stone inferior, I think,
from some specimens I have examined more particularly since I came here. It serves, however, for stone fronts and steps, and when taken from the upper part of the stratum, is durable The lower part, is too argillaceous, and soon falls to pieces on exposure to the atmosphere. Farther down still we found another stratum of lime
stone purer and better than that above the falls .
From this stratum all the country to the north
is furnished with building stone, as none of im-
found here. It extends some 50
miles and in many places is extensively worked.
Lower down, in the neighborhood of Hawsville n! Cannelton we came to the coal region of the west. What is the quality, I could not ascertain, as I could not get ashore nor learn from any passenger. From some specimens of the same bed which are found in Tutnam county, I iudire it is inferior to the Pennsylvania bed, as
that is inferior to the. Anthracite east of the mountains. This is, I think, more bituminous.
It is difficult to account for this difference, as
all coal beds must have been formed at the same geological period, and all formed of the same vegetable substances. Perhaps the Anthracite Is the oldest formation, and In a few thousand years the present bituminous beds may be as
pure as the best eastern coal. I say oldestt though of the same period. But who shall tell the length of that period? The Pennsylvania coal beds cannot be less than 1400 feet in depth, and this Is probably as thick, though it can never be as extensively worked as that, wanting
the out-croppiugs which the mountain affords. Beds of such depth, formed of vegetables growing on the spot, must have required thousands of years;even allowing the climate and soil to have been inconceivably more favorable c growth
than now. Here, and in all this lower Wabash country, we are over this coal region. By digging wecould find coal. Here are also salt wells, the concomitants of coal formations, but not sufficiently rich to justify working to any extent.
. Of the general appearance of this country.
I can only say, that it is pain
not swampy. Talk as mrch as you please of the emended plain, it is tiresome ia the extreme. -Tsville is a thriving and business place. In a' few years it will be in Rail Road commu-
" nication with Alton, 111., and be the centre of
an extensive trade. The canal will be finished in about two years. Yours, &c. A. F.vansville, Dec. IS4?.

In the recent Presidential election, I discover that your State has voted for Gen Cass, a notorinns BlMilitioni.st known to lie such. He was
born an Abolitionist he was raised one and he is still one havimr avowed himself a Wil-
' motTrovisoist, upon the lloor of the Senate, in the hearing of Mr.Calhoiin, who instructed you
J to vote for him. I regard Mr. Calhoun your ' great letder, as a corrupt politician, and a dan-
gerous man, seeking to dissolve this glorious j Union. I regard him as ins iucere jn all his pretended concern fortheSouth, and the peculiar
institutions or the South. The leading politicians of the dominant party in your State, I regard as a band of NuI'iners nd disorgamzers.
