D. Ilowland, or Georgo Holland of this place. C3T2ASTX2 AT SflXZ2YLU.Oar readers will remember that a few weeks ago we announced that measures were on foot to remove Wm. Mixer Esq. from the Tost Offico at Iflxerrille, and supply, his plac with one Mr. Williams, a foreigner living ia that place. The deed is done. Last week Mr. Williams received the documenta which constitute him. Post Mas teratMlzerTille. Inooropnlon this event demands more than a casual notice. There is principleinvolved, that is of vital importance to the people of this country. Mr. Mixer is confessedly aa accommodating and faithful officer, a well aa an amiable and much respected citileo. Bathe is a Presbyterian, and daring the late election he choose Jto avow his sentiments as an American citixen, and, seeing the arrogant da mands of foreigners, particularly Catholic foreigners, he choose to identify himself with those Democrats . that intend, at all hazards, to resist their encroachments, rather than with those who court their influence and yield to their demand. For this exercise of the right of a native born American citizen he was duly reported to our Roman Catholic Post Mister General, and promptly removed. When it is known that the office is only worth about nine dollars $er quarter.this cf of Catholic tyrrany becomes the more activating, and shows clearly what we are to expect when they obtain the power of the General and Bute Governments as they professedly txpect to do. Yet it is no new feature of Romanism. Such have been its working in every age. The head that bows not to its mandates, must be cut off. Political and religious toleration, in Catholic Countries is not known. ,Ia most of them; as in Cuba and elsewhere, even a decent burial is not allowed the dead who die out of her communion. We ask the people of Indiana to look at this act, not of so much importance itself, as it is when regarded aa an Index of whatj may bo cpxectel hereafter. If a government official may proscribe an humble citizen in this way, for his religious and political sentiments if a native of the United States, may be removed to mako room for a foreigner, simply because he is opposed to. Romanism, will tho free people of tbi county uphold the men who uphold and approve such a course? Is there any remedy? We know of none, except by the remote means of the ballot box. To mako this effect ual, every lover of American liberty I J ahould at onse resolve that h will not w to support those who cater to this foreign influence. We understand that tha people of Bath townshiphave gen - rally agreed on applying a more immediate remedy in this case. Having failed, in their remonstrance before the Roman Catholic Tyrant who hold, for the time beim tho reins of power, they hare concluded to apply as much remdy as they can, to the man who con - , aenU to be tha tool of such an ou -

pressor. Many have determined to j industrious farmer, or mechanics order their letters and papers sent to -cn who work hard and live economanother office. ically, but who are in need of funds

, Ther intend then to withdraw their patronage in busiaess from Mr. Wil liams. Should they do this, ns they most certainly will, he will be greatly the loser in accepting the office under uch circumstances. We object to proscription tor opinion's sake, but in this case there appears to be no other remedy. It will be a severe, but perhaps a deserved penalty for outraging 'the sentiments of ao many Americans. We believe that a vcrr larcre maioritr of the votera ofthat township sympathize with Mr. Mixer's views, and this act will largely increase their number, and as they are men of influence at home, if not with the appotnting power, they will make their withdrawal of custom felt. Bobbsrt. On Monday evening, at Harrison, 0., wl.ile A. M. Ball's Troupe of Indians from 2?vbraka, Territory, wer. giving an exhibition of their custom and manners, some jxrton entered their room at the Am erican Hotel, and br". ke open a trunk and took therefrom sven hundred dol lar in gold. The trunk contained be tween seven and eight thousand dotlars in gold, silver and paper, but some persons going to the room before the thief had got through, he was obliged to decamp with a small portion of the contents. No clue hai been had to the perpetrator as yet. ' XgrThe President and Engineer r theN. A. de Sandusky R. R, were in town this week. Tho work on h part tf the road is progt-esMnir fairly.

BASS fAILTOXS. . f A merchant at the foot of Walnut street, Cincinnati, being taken with a slight tickness, sent hin negro porter with abottlti to fetch him some brandy. Hours went by before Sim came back, minus the bottl and the money, and looking very sleepy and tired. "Whcra hare you ben you rascal V1 -shouted

the merchant, "and wbtre'a thc.hrw. dy?" "I had tho brandy put in tha botth sir." " "Where't the bottlö "then?" "De fae am, mas'r, I called in at a Dank where I had busine, and de Banks are breaking ebbryting now, as you knows, and dis bank brok do bottie, and dc brnndy aJl gone." . , Amongst the crowd that filled Third Street, onjWcdncsday.waa observed an Irishman, who stood 'with clasped hands nnd a sorrowful look; ho feared his little all, saved to send homo to the "old - country," for his wifo to join him, was gone. As one was trying to explain to him that things were not so bad as he expected, another Hibernian, evidently from the country, accosted him, and after. the .first hhIuUtion enquired. "And bed id Michael, butyer look as solid as n chawed bullet, what's the Matter?" 1 The misfortune was explained to him, with an assurance that the whole. waatnot lost, when the querist exclaimed "Oh, bother, put all that in a pipe and smoke it, and it's "but little worse yell be, I'll tell you how the bank 6crve4 me, divil burn it. When I got me last year's wages, Pat O'Brien tould me if I put fn an Ohio Bank, it 'ud Increase by si j cents on the dollar every year, so one day I knocked . off, work, nnd crossed to thin sid;',thcn I walked up the river above Fulton,' 'till I found a high bank. I cut a deep hole, and put the money in, wrapped up In au ould newspaper; and after making all look straight again, I went back again. One day last spring I Crossed again, and went up to tho bank to see whether any of the bix cent'pleces had ot into the newspaper and what do yon think I saw? Faith the bank had'nt failed, as y say yours has done, but in the winter the water had washed it so bad, that it had caved in, and. rojr money was fairly gone, bad cess to it." . . .. T8A.TKEU There are sometimes, laughablo incidentT in the midst of the raott trying 'scenes. One occurred last week in Cincinnati on the day the Banks ware failing. An Irish laborer, who had deposited the proceeds of several years labor.bt ing struck with the panic early m the morning, drew out his money from Smeads. The question then was what to do with it. It was paid in bank notes. The banks might fail before night! He thought of lend ing it, but the borrower Jmight'makc an assignment." He thought of Ellis fe Stnrges but they had already closed' After sweating over it for about an hourhetook itback to Srnead's and just as ho retired tho back closcdl , This reminds us of an incident nearer home. One of our farmers had deposited a small amount in our Bank. Last week ho determined to draw it. But on reflection he remembered . that he would have to take "currency," that is State Stock money. This might break and as he wa afraid to trust anybody with uch an amount, he :J" conciuau 10 Jem dc, noi uowcv- . -lit... er. without many fears and misgiv jn? - i V Th " B,7 V i f dPos,t and raAn)' business i men wLo hvc byni thc,r income ) vho "PPcar t0 bo rid and r"liablo TC ia8t,J &lftral'd mn. of mM i raeans w" have small amounts to 1 ,enJ- vVhew can they be wfe?

leo ax nnxuzaf. The law limiting the intcreston mon

ey to nix p-.r cent., is unjust and prejudicial to the people, and we hope our1 next legislature will so amend it aito allow parties to give and take that ammount of interest specified by contrast. Whenthero is no contract between the parties.thelaw should limit the amount of interest. Money is like any other commodity; it should bo allowed to bring what it may In the markeU cmn JIeaiJ. Uur "usury law Is ono of the most aboroinable laws on the Statute: , ' It i pioductlvo only of 'evil. It allows ba'nW li chargeIndirectly any Inter est, by a so calleS bill of exchange, but private individuals can obtain only six per cent. Thus hundreds of widows and poor men, who have a few dollars to lend deposit, it in bank at 6 per cent and the rich banker gets from 12 o 30 per cent. Yet this Is proftti; tdty all for the benefit of the poor. One result of. this law in this county is that thousand? of dollars, are taken! to Ohio and lent to strangers at from 8 tu 10 per cent while our business men haw to go to bank for money at ruinous rttU:. And the late failure of the Brokers in Cincinnati hare caught many an honest farmer of this county. Some have .hundreds and some thousands of dollars there at 0 per cent because that law of Indiana drove them to this course, when they could havo found goo 1 and safe customers athonic.could they have'exacted 8 or 10 per c-nt, nnd had they been wdling to lend to laboring men, who wear patcheon theirelbows and knees, ride Sr. a wagon to church instead of a 200 buggy, and dress their wives and children in good, rkthir than fashionable clothing.

As we premised in our last number to give soino extracts this week from the Salt River Chronicle, and as prob ably some of our readers are anxiously awaiting the news from their friends in the "new settlement," we proceed to the fulfillment of our promise. borne history, however, of th Chronicle and its future prospects, will not be out of place before we go to extracting such items from its columns an we bhall deem profitable and inter esting to our tenders. It is a large double medium sheet, is printed at Golgatha, in Salt River Settlement, with . J. lirown as editor, and has for its motto "Jbr Catholics, gen, Mormone and Whitky." In the prospectus the editor says: "A nil oeinj me urk P"pcr,y in Golgatha, we ask our friends to assist us alltnev posmoIv can. ino Uuronicle will favor Democracy, Catholicism and Mormoaism, and oppose Abolitionism, tho Preachers ana the Bible." Tho editor sincerely boprs thai hi services will be better appreciatedjin his new home than they were in the States: He is thoroughly convinced that Republics are ungrateful! It appears that our old friend 'Lard Oil' had quite a serious trip of tt. Tl e Chronicle says: "Our beloved friend, Mr. John Lard Oil, was prostrated all the way up, owing to disappointment and change of climate, but through the agency of his world renowned oil, he has been permitted to enjoy the promised land." Senator Douglas is expected in the settlement as soon as he cn possibly collect and bring together his extensive family from the South. We belicvo the following speech of Hon John Lard Oil is not tho one spoken Jof br our correspondent, John Smith, Lsrj.. in our las t issue. We copy it tntiie: ' "Yesterday afternoon we wer fa. vored with a short speech from Hon. John Lard Oil.

I remained on the vessel till she sunk, when I went down with her. I had been employed a few minuios before with two other, on of whom was ailed "Tom, the storekeeper," in Isshiti'g tome enska together, vhc-n I won driven awny In the water, which was now rushing in "with fearful impetouaity. Jumping upon the paddle-box, I eprang on the saloon deck, and in an iiitt-uit wss engulphed in the surging waters, which soon closed over our head. Down, down wo sank with our noble vessel into the bosom of tho oce.nn. snd the terrible thought took possession of i my mind that I was drowning; that I should never see my dear friends aitjj my home cgsin. I retained my consciousness, however, all the time ( was under the water, snd it was with a feelior of intense joy that I found, after about half a minute, that I wa rapidly rising towards the surface. It was a!! darkness before, and in a few kcond-t I wss on the top of t.ic woter, trujjjlifi for life. Beinj a good swimmer, and having, besides, tho tmpport of a life preserver, I succeeded in reaching a door, which was flosiin? a fewfect from where I rote. I looked around me, lut there was no trace of the vessel, except a few louso timbers and the. raft which were floating about, soinowith and others without passenger. Finding that I could not retain my hold of the door with' safetv. I li'ft it. ond swsin to a bar j rel which lay a few feet from . me; fram this fgbln I swam to the largo raft, which had, as I have said about seventy per- ! sona clinging to it.

I could see their faces in tho openings as they were swayed lo and fro by tho waves, which threatened every moment to wash me off. Tho nit st one time wo ho crowded that many had to hold on by one hand. Very few words were spoken by any, and '.ho only sound that was htord was the splash ol the water or the heavy breathing of the poor sufferers, as they tried to recover their breath after a wave had passed over them. Nearly all wero submerged to their armpits, while a few could with great difficulty, keep their heads above the surface. The women were the first to go. They were unable to stsnd the exposuro more than three or four hours. They all fell off tho raft without a word, except one poor girl, who cried out, in intense aony "0, my poor mother andsistera 1 " When I wss about eighteen hours on tho raft, there were not more than three or four Jelt. One of theso gavo me what appeared to be a small map, but which I understood him to say was a sort of title deed to his property. In a few moments after I took it, he too unloosed his hold, and was rdded to tho number that floated about tho raft. I endeavored to git tho paper into my pocket, but found this impossible, on account of my crarnped position, so I pla ced it between my teeth, ana held it there till I was overwhcln-ed by a Wave, when I lost my hold of it.rnd it was washed away. Another, who had an oiled silk coat on, called on no, for Heaven's sake, to assist him, os his strength was rapidly failing, and he must lall off, if not relieved. As he wss about four or five fee, from me, it was diScult to reach him; but after con siderable exertion, I succeeded in doing so, and helped hitn with one of rny knee? until f. became- quite faint, when I was obliged to leave him to his fate. Poor fellow, he promised me, if ever he got to New York alive, He would reward mo well. lie clunj with terrible tenacity to life, but he, too, dropped off in kis turn. I was now left alone on the ruft; not a solitary beinz was alive, cut of seven tv: but still my hope continued strong.

Mr. Washburne is tic third of three brother of kimilar politics who. are chosen to tho uext Congress, from difVrent States. The Legislature is Uepubllean in hort, the State goes nil that way.

Practically the battlo was won on the Republican or "Fusion" platform, tho candidates being nominated, as Anti-Nebraska men.

COSTJEESTILLE COEEEEPOlfDEyCE. v CoxxEnsviu-t, Nov. 8.k liao. Goodwin: I infer from a remark in the Amercan that you' jreri doubtful whether the LegUIaturu tit its next Session, would pass flatflectivc Pi ohibitory Liquor Law." If that should be the case, the friends pf fnv perance throughout the State, will be muclr disnppointedr nnd I think the Senator or Representative elected on the "People's Ticket," who would at falhfnilo nstnirr'rnMtirt-rtf that kind, yr re fUMJ tofjvej his inflöenee, or.casi Ins Vote for' a law',' designed effectually to suppress nil traffic in fpiritüou? liqnor ar n leverage, (vnii eVr; tain to cut his thro'at, politically, as some that I know of, that voted for tie Nebraska Rill; und much mote certain ly, because thoa "unfortunat'.'-' nud "doomed'' went it blind, without nny instructions from their coiistHu'trtfs, but rnthU'cnte, the.si L''gtHHtors nre clearly instructed h U) tht stntimopt of the "People" on the great question of Temperance, nnd the- lVople having -at niHjwruy in, both Houst-a, and of course on joint ballot, what is to hinder the passage of ft fit r.aoLaw Look also, at the ch trai'tct, position, UlcoU. wid influenae .f many of those who reprerent tho Tcmpeinnc; inter est tht'itntnöng'whom thav be found R. HThomson, Esq.,, fudge Kilgorc, Rcv, Le Roy . Woo I, Hon: C. II. Te?t, S. Merieth, Esq.," R v. W. Mali'ck, Dr Sage.fand many others that 'might be mentioned, men. of. tho riht aWmp, and in fact, in point of tnltnt, moral worth, and pure American Pntriotim, as will assemble at tho coming Session of the Legislature, there )ixs not been its equal, for lo, those many Tears, and I confidently expect omethnig' will be dont;. . i ' Rut it is iiiii'l t.iiit nothing, will be gained, even though the best law that Temperance men inigl.l desir-, would bo pivmid, Gov. Wright would put it in his pocket i nd tnke it to Kentucky with him, and thus defeat tho whole measure. But I think not,-h" would think the pcoplu would put Lis name, and. a record of that act in their pockets, and it would be the bent policy. -to sig? th bill nnd give it'to the people. There is no dang.ir Crom th4 fcuuiye. But then Judgo Davidson, Juae Perkins, Judge Holman', and sonic oilier old lino JuJgva, havesaidthat there is no ProlubUory Law. which the Legislaturo might pass, but that they would pronounce unconstitutional,Well they only Bi;d that befoio tho cl-ec'-ion, thinking they would dupe some Temperance voters. But they. won't say so now, fur they will be sure to think that the people will bear in mind that Judges nre elected by the people now, nnd there is no danger from that source. " . But that about which we should feel most concern, is to get ready to receive tho law, and make arrangements to sec it carried out, and rigidly enforced, for of all men iu the whole country, the rummies arc the least loyal, the least law-abiding, and every advantage will be taken of the very best law that can bo got, and we havo somo lawyers mean enough' to help thcm-nl will require perhaps as much effort, and more money.to havo the law enforced, than was requsita to obtain its passage. I hopu steps will bo taken nt an early date to organize the friends of Temperance throughout the State, into a kind of League, with a' view to this important object. I fear, however, there will be one featuro in tho 1-tw which to me will be very objectionable, and that is, the protection that may be thrown' around these stillhouses that curse out State. The law will, no douht, boar with a heavy hand, just aV U should, upon tho murderous rumstlkr, nnd say to him: Sir, you must quit your business. The sufferings of humanity, the cries and tears, the distress nnd woe of thousands of your fellow beings and the public good, require jo.u to stop your work of death. But to the purseproud, stillhouse pioprictor, the "poisoners general," in tho language of Wesley, while rolling in wealth, that of. right belongs to scores ci families who have been beggared and ruined by the very whisky they made, to them the law 4 may say, you may continue your, paupilr-waking, misery-producing, hope-blighting, and soul-destroying business, but yoa must r.ot stain the soil of Indiana, with the blood of your victims, whatever ruin and desolation you may bo the means -of creating elswhere, we'll protect you in it. Now that is consistency with a vengencc. A atltniii there is a djflercncQ between the rtillkoivto bos and the doggery keeper; the ftillhousc bosi h Infin'ately tho worse of the two, and does roofl to encourage, and fostr the evils of Intemperance, and a law that will punish tho doggery keeper without mercy,' and 'protect tlie paternal source of nil doggeries, is a lawunlike, that of tho Medea at 1 PerJans.
