High Water. The recent rains have swollen the water in the Ohio to a great

degree, above any rise we have had

since last spring. It is supposed that the

water is now 35 or 40 feet above low water mark, and is still rising. Busi

ness along the river is at full tide, as the

navigation across the falls, and to Orleans, is uninterrupted. Governors Message. We regret the necessity which comprls U3to divide the

message, but it could not under the cir

cumstances be avoided. The first side of our paper is usually put to press on

Wednesday evening; the Indianapolis

mail does not arrive until the same eve

of the paper to fill after it arrives, which

would not, if all ether things had been left' out, have contained it. Those who have been favored with this state paper

in pamphlet form, will readily excuse the delay; and those who have not, will not be the less anxious to see it because others have read it before ihem.

FOR THE PALLADIUM. TO ARTHUR ST. CLAIR, ESQ.

Author of the address delivered at the

Jackson meeting, held in Dearborn county, on the 3rd of December, 1 827.

SIR: As some of the Adams men doubt the truthof a number of your statements in the above named address, I have ta

ken some pains to furnish a statement oi the following facts, which may be used as far as they will go to support your assertions. First You say, "The legitimate functions of legislative bodies are the en

actment of laws," and afterwards add, kThe people are the only source of elective sovereignty, and no intermediate and unauthorized agencies, should be permitted to control or direct their wish-

es. 1 o show that what you deprecate, has been attempted, I will state, the legislature of Tennessee, during their session in the year of our Lord, 1825, shortly after Mr. Adams was elected, did resolve to offer Gen. Andrew Jackson to the people of the United States, as a suitable person to be elected President, and that John Q. Adams was not a 6uitabKperson for that office; and that General Jackson, immediately after being thus nominated by the said legislature, (that is the people of the United States,) to show his willingness to serve them in an) situation they should think proper to place him, did resign or vacate his seat in the U. S. Senate; but Mr. Adams, notwithstanding said resolve, still continues,

contrary to the express will of the people

of u. S.(thatisthe L gislatureof Tennessee,) toofficiate in the office of President. Again, you say, "For twenty-eight years past, (including the present administration, none but a secretary of the cabinet has been elected to the Presidency." It is a fact well known, that Mr. Madison, the first cabinet secretary elected to the presidency, was elevated to that office in 1809, more than eighteen years ago, I believe this proves your statement as far as it can be proven; and to show the evil of the practice, Madison, Monroe, and John Q. Adams, are the men that have been thus elected. You again say, speaking of Mr. Adams,

t4He has generally been opposed to free

and universal suffrage contending that

none but free-holders have a right to vote." The best evidence I know to

prove this statement, is taken from the

FOR THE PALLADIUM. SIGNS of the times. As was expected, the friends of the Coalition are on tip-toe and ready to step a hornpipe on a pole bridge from mere vexation, because the friends of 401d Hickory," and the purity of elections, have presumed, in the face of all the fine spun speeches in favor of Mr. Adams, to hold meetings in this state favorable to the man of their choice for the presidency. Tiie Adamsites were altogether un

Senate, to regulate the then Territory of Louisiana, a motion was made to re

strict the right of voting to free-holders.

I he motion was opposed by Mr. Adams,

and he voted to leave the provisions of

the bill, so that every free citizen of the

state should have the right to vote; thus opposing universal suffrage. .

And again, speaking of Mr. Adams,

you say, "He has generally been hostile

to the Western interests." To Drove

this, let the people read his letter to a friend of his in Boston, written during the late war with England, when he was

in liussia. Speaking of the discontent in New England, and their jealousies, lest the east should lose her political influence, by so many of her citizens emigrating to the west, he expresses his belief that their fears were unfounded, and that the New England character would not depreciate by emigrating to the west, and goes on to express himself in sub

stance as follows that nothing on earth

presented to his view a more delightful

picture, than the fruitful fields rising out

of the forest, in the west, so lately the habitation of the savage and the wild beast. And since he has been President, he has appointed Commissioners to treat

with the Indian, and extinguish their ti

tle to millions of acres of land in Indiana;

so that his eye is likely to be pleased by

seeing vast quantities of our beautiful

forests turned into fruitful fields, our In

tly expected

the latter courbe will be pursued; they are not willing to trust much to the people, because they distrust their attachment to the cause of Mr. Adams. Legislative halls are the theatres of their greatest exploits. There they feel per

fectly at home, because the space of

opeiation is defined, and the materials of which they are composed more within the sc ope of management. Not so among the people: the field is too large to be encompassed by a few bold seductive movements of the panders of power. Forced, as the Adamsites are in this state, to resort to some measures to support their cause, it cannot but be expected that they should feel a little crusty

and out of humour with the signs of the'

times: for never were a set of fellows

mure hardly beset by the current of

popular opinion than they. Despeate resistance is made whenever an opportunity presents, but with little effect. Every effort at headway against the stream, only shows more plainly how fast I hey are hurrying to the end of their race. Discomfited in Pennsylvania; "beaten and overwhelmed" in New York, they have lain hold of their last hope, with a quivering hand and a doubling heart. Virginia is to be brought over! The forces are called off from an unprofitable war in the East, and a close seige commenced in the South. The "ancient dominion" is beset on every side, that no one may escape ; and daily report f rom the runners of the Coalition 6ays they are playing havoc among the Jackson ranks. Hundreds at a time arc represented as

grounding their weapons of rebellion,

and peaceably enrolling themselves undrr the banner of the administration.

This is glorious news to the Adamsites,

refreshing aa the dews of evening upon the sun parched plain; &: has wrought a

most wonderful, change of sentiment as to Virginia. . But a few days ago, her

citizens were denounced and vilified, as disorganizes, enemies to the country, to

domestic industry, to internal improvement, and to peace. Now thej are finest

fellows in the world ! Honest, patriotic,

fast friends to the best interests of the

country, of course, agreeably to their

sa, true Adamsites. It is very easy to discover from this sample of consistency, how much realty there is in the professions of those who pretend to oppose Gen. Jackson on the ground of measures. One of the principal objections urged against him, a short time since, was that Virginia and the other states opposed to what is denominated the 'American System,' were favorable to him for president, Sl if elected, he was bound in good faith logo with them, even if it should be contrary to his own feelings. By this

same rule cf reasoning, (which is just as

and all our range for the deer, the bear,

In his first message to Congress, speaking of those men who are buying up the land, he said, "The purchasers of public land are among the most useful of our fellow citizens." He applauded the conduct of Congress, in granting indulgence to those who had bought on credit, and recommended that further relief should be given. Now all this talk abont purcha-

sers of public lands, is undeniable, for

Congress had it printed, and sent all over the country. He has also sanctioned appropriations of some hundred thousand dollars, to make a road through Ohio &

Indiana, and a canal round the Falls of

the Ohio, so that foreigners and our own

citizens, might buy up and carry off our

produce, which otherwise we might keen

at home; by doing these Sc other similar

acts, it is that he has, as you say, "al

ways evinced a course of conduct inconsistent with the present condition and future greatness and importance of the western states." Viewing these subjects as you do, who would not conclude, his supporters are only those in office, and those who except to receive some office from him. If circumstances permit, I may offer a few things next week in support of what you have said in favor of Gen. Jackson. With respect your very humble servant, A Western Citize.

Foreign Gleanings. By the late arrivals from England no items of foreign intelligence of importance, have been received. It appears that the European Ambassadors were still at the Turkish capital, having given, it is strted, additional time to the Sultan for his decision upon the proposition of the European powers. Large bodies of Russian troops were marching to the frontiers of Turkey. The Cabinet Council of Constantinople were deliberating on important despatches which had just been receiv
