al objection to my holding the office, except my not getting votes enough, I shall make every reasanable exertion to remove that duticul ty; butiflfail,l shall still stick to the anvil, at the old stand, where my friends and the public generally, may have their work done at the shortest notice. For my purity and patriotism, 1 would refer to a life spent over charcoal and fire ever since I was able to lift a sledge and I trust 1 have rendered my country some service by uniting the broken, strengthening the weak, sharpening the dull, end hardening and softening, nrlding and soldering materials which most others would find totally unmanageable. As to my birth or breeding, I know but little about them; but I may safely say, there are few men in the latitude and longitude of Indiana, who have stood longer at the anvil, or who can

even handle a sledge with more ability.

These stones fell with such violence, as to penetrate the roofs of many houses in the neighborhood, and I have myself seen pieces of clapboards, more than half an inch thick. split by them.

burst her boiler near what is called the New Cut Off on the Mississippi, by which a great many persons were instantly killed. Nineteen, it is said, were found dead on Hue boat immediately after the accident; how many had been injured and thrown overboard from the decks by the explosion, which is represented

as having been dreadful beyond description, had not been ascertained, hut it i reasonable to suppose that many found an end to their misery in a wutery grave. Of those who survived the first dreadful calamity, many have since died on their way up, and at Louisville; where we understand those who wished to be removed were landed. The boat's crew, with the exception of one or two, are said to be among the deceased.

We have not been able to ascertain

, tbe precise number of persons on

Indians. Secondly, as to my opinions

on the Presidency, I have not yet made up my mind; but as I intend not to be outmanaged by any body, as I shall be on the strong side as soon as I can tell

which that will be. On the subject of

As 1 do not expect to make a very great Governor, I shall not be caught over the mountains, making my mark as Governor of Indiana, in the Tavern Registers. If I am elected, my shop and tools will be for rent on moderate terms, for I shall not wish as Governor to blow np any more fires than I can keep under, or meddle unnecessarily with edge tools. I will not ride about electioneering, as I

am afraid I shall not appear to advan

tage out of the shop: but those who will

call there can at anv time have satis far-

cr.am Uory specimens of my ability. Not expectboard ing to "wither" in a dry season, I hope

at the time the accident happened. Report has made it 1G0 on the upper deck, and that but one or two of those escaped unhurt. Enough however has been ascertained to warrant the belief that a more distressing and heart-rending scene has never been witnessed on the Missis

sippi, (not even excepting the sinking of;

the Tennessee in 1323) since the first settlement of this country. Much anxiety is felt by many of our citizens, who have been expecting the return of their friends and relatives, lest they may have been on board the ill fated boat. In our next we hope to be able to give a more detailed and satisfactory account of this dreadful and afflictive accident. Several of our readers Iinving mnifesteid a wish that we would insert the following article, from the Indianapolis Gazette, we deem it proper, to avoid the imputation which otherwise might attach to a selection of this kind, to say that we deprecate as unfair and illiberal a! course of conduct which has for its object the injury of any individual, (as this has) under the specious name of some billing drudge ; who, like the puppet in the show, is moved by the invisible hand of the actor behind the screen. The obvious intention of Mr. Vanblaricum's publication is to alTect Gov. Ray, and? by a species of wit and scarcasm, pecu-

to Lourisli while oread, meat and pota toes' produce their usual effects. I am the publ'c's humble servant, JOHN V A NBL A RI C UM .

Frbm the Indianapolis Gazelle: Gentlemen: If you deem tbe following facts worthy of a place in your paper, you will confer a favor on a subscriber by giving them publicity: The Steam Boat Triton, Captain Stephen Butler, of 52 tons burden, left Louisville on the 24th April, at half past 6 o'clock, P. M. freighted for Spencer, by James M. H. Allison, Esq. and chartered for Indianapolis arrived within 14 miles of Spencer on the 28th instant, at 6 o'clock, P. M. The water

beme somewhat low , (within a foot of

being fordable at Spencer,) and the channel occasionally somewhat obstructed by snags, it was thought advisable by the pilot not to ascend any further, although had the obstructions been removed, it is the opinion of those who are best acquainted with the river, that the water was sufficient for the boat to have ascended to Indianapolis with safety.' The boat met with no difliculty on her passage," and it was the opinion of the captain, that notwithstanding the existing obstructions, one foot of water more than at the then existing stage, would have enabled him to proceed with facility to the plice of his destination. . The advantages to be derived from

transportation into the interior part ofj

this state by the channel of VV hite river, have been but too long neglected; nor in this respect have the resources of the western and middle sections of this stain

liar to certain characters, degrade him; been suitably appreciated; & those who

and the office he holds to a level with

themselves. If the conduct of the executive has been as disreputable as some would willingly make believe, it presents matter to the people of serious consider-! ation, and not that cut of which a farcc should be made, to be used in derision ofj our citizens, and for the amusement of those inhabiting other states. We are not the advocates of the Governor, nor any other man, to shield him from manly and merited rebuke. "Let every tub stand on its own bottom" is our creed. But when no object is had in view, but to create a laugh at the expense of the executive and the character of the state, and we are called upon to aid and abet by giving it currency, we cannot help expressing our disapprobation of such conduct. To the Freemen of Indiana, Fellow-Citizens: Born in a land of liberty, and accustomed from infancy to speak my mind freely, it will not be expected that I should apologise for offering myself as a candidate for Governor at the ensuing election. As 1 know of no constitution-

test by actual experiment the practicability of measures fraught with consequences conductive to general benefit, are surely entitled to respect of theii fellow citizens,' commensurate to the enterprise exercised and the benefits resulting to every class cf community. A citizen of Spencer. Spencer, 28th April, 4828.

George, who, on the morning of that day left the residence of her mother to visit a relation a few miles distanf. About noon of the same day, her lifeless body was found dreadfully butchered, and bearing evidences of brutal violation. A public road miich travelled was the scene of this horrid deed. Miss George, it is said, was about 18 years of age, handsome, of respectable parentage, and of unblemished character.

One of the carriages came in contact with a tree on the avenue with such force, as to overturn it, though it was large and firmly rooted, Sz, killed 1 of the wheel horses on the spot.
