A number of communications have ne cessarily been laid over for want of room. They will be attended to hereafter. We observe, by the late Washington city papers, that Daniel J. Casrccll, of Cincinnati Ohio, and Oliver H. Smith, oi Connersville, la. have been admitted into the Supreme Court of the United States as Attorneys and Counsellors at Law. Lazcreneebnrgh Market."

The Augusta Ky. Herald is no more! The editor in announcing the discontinu ance of this paper, makes some humor, bus and ingenuous remarks, after the style of the Declaration of Independence. The following is an extract from his valedictory, and may be taken as a fair sample of the whole article: "We, therefore, the proprietor, publisher, printer, and editor of the Aiusta Her ild, in the editorial cabinet assembled, appealing to the public for the correctness of our course, do, in the name of our empty pockets, unpaid notes, and dunning creditors, publibh and declare, that the Augusta Herald is, and of right ought to be, DISCONTINUED: that it is absolved from all ftrther obligations to its patrons, to furnish them the weekly "signs of the times and that, as a discontinued paper, the editor has a right to make out his bill, collect his arrearages, pay his debts, and perform such other acts of necesMt), as publishers are sometimes compelled to resort toyto possess their just wages." The Legislature of this 6tate adjourned sine die, on the 24th ult. after a session of about 8 weeks; during this time 81 acts and 1 1 joint resolutions have undergone the inspection of the" people's servants" and been pronounced passable. How many of these will receive the approbation of the public, we are unable to say, as we have not had an opportunity of examining them. No provision has been made for an increase of Circuits'

or Courts. Suitors must be content with the present system yet another year, notwithstanding its insufficiency, in most cases, is very apparent, where the courts of the country are resorted to, to administer justice in any reasonable time. It can not be argued, as the courts are now fixed, that persons applying, for remedy for injuries, can have justice done 'without denial or delay,' as the constitution requires. From 12 to 18 months must elapse under the most speedy progress before any thing is accomplished. By late papers we received the proceedings of both conventions held at Harrisburgh Pa. That in favor of the Administration, nominated Mr. Rush as a candidate for Vice President. The unpledged, or what was denominated the Democratic Republican Convention, nominated Andrew Jackson for President, and John C. Calhoun for Vice President. Both Conventions were numerously and respectably attended. The electoral tickets formed, will be published.

W e are authorized to announce Jimon Stnpp, of Jefferson county, as a candidate for Lieutenant Governor, at the en suing election. Extract of a Utter from the Hon. Oliver H. smith to the editors, dated Washington, 15ih Jan. 1828, House of Representatives. J You will perceive that we are moving slowly. Indeed, w e have been occupied with business of too little importance to the people, lately. We were occupied "ome days with Mr. Hamilton's Resolution relative to the painting of the battle of New Oileans, which was negatived on the question of its passage. I .voted against it; not but what I would as soon nave a painting of that sort, or of that battle, as any other; but I am opposed to expending 8 or 10,000 dollars for any picture to hang up in the capitol, where no person except such as happen to be! here could ever see it. The money be longs to the people, and tvhen I expend it in such sums it must be for more sub stantial objects than pictures. A resolution, which has taken up considerable time, was introduced Mr. Slown of Ohio, calling upon the Secretary of War to furnish all the papers, orders, and records relative to the execution of the six mili tia men. I his document will be out in a few days, when I will send you a copy. It will no douht be read with some inter est, as the different parties have differed so widely on the subject of the legality of the execution of those unfortunate men. Party spirit is not so high here as I had expected; and it is but very seldom I hear a word said on the subject. For my own part, I have resolved not to meddle wiih it here as I can do mv f onstituents much more good by being friendly with all the members. From the Rtchruond Whig. Jan. 12. The convention mov-s on with uninterrupted harmony. Yesterday the Electoral Ticket was reported and unanimously adopted. It is such none as has never deen presented to Virginia before and we are bold to say, is the most powerful ever formed by any btate of this Union. It must and will make a great impression on the people of Virginia and we firmly believe, that from this time forward, the cause of the Administration is destined to advance with rapid pace in Virginia. Let the thousands of enlightened men who are now committed to the cause exert themselves, and the bad effects of their formerapathy will yet be repaired. The following gentlemen have been placed on the Electoral Ticket by the Convention of friends of the Administration. James Madison, Orange County, James monroe, Loudoun, Stephen Wright, Norfolk, Benjamin Harrison, Charles City, Joseph Goodwyn, Dmwiddie, Richard Feild, Brunswick, Edward C. Carrington, Halifax, Benjamin Hatcher, Manchester, Samuel Branch, Buckingham, Fleming Sanders, Franklin David S.Garland, Amherst, Chapman Johnson, Richmond, Francis T. Brooke, Spottsylvania, Charles Hill, King and Queen, Robert Lively, Elizabeth City, Hancock Eustice, Stufford, Vm. A. G. Dade, Prince William Alfred H.

VTilson, Monongalia, We understand that on Saturday the Convention nominated Mr. Rush as candidate for Vice President. CASH, and a liberal vrice. will be given for a few busriels of good wood ASHES.

Cincii:i:ati, Jan. 25. We are highly gratified at being erabled to Mate, that the damage done tf the Miami Canal by the late fresh in thf Great Miami, h much jess than was ic. ported. We are infoimed that two or three hundred dollars will repair all the injury done to lock No. 1, which was caused by water backing up the old mili race a quarter from whence no danger was apprehended, and consequently ho provision made to guard against l. It will now, however, be dFuctually ?c. cured. Four boats loaded with produce, arrived at the Basin neaf this city, on Saturday last, having navigated the Canal the whole distance from Middletown. The breaches in the Canal had been temporarily repaired, to enable the boats to pass. On the 20th day of January, 1828, be it remembered that the Miami

Canal was not, nor had not been, impeded by ice. We have not learnt that the recent freezing has been 6uthcient to close the Canal. Republican, SALE OF REAL ESTA TE.
