Messrs. Editors: In votir pnpcr of

it." Mr. Milliken must know this statement resembles that which he says I am

We are requested to state that the annu.iPmeeting, (as it stands adjourned) of the Auxiliary BiHe Socipty, of the county of Dearborn, will be held at the Meth-j
odist' Church in this place on Monday the 18th inst. at 11 o'clock, A. M. when and where the managers, directors, members, and friends of the institution are requested to attend.
Senator, James 7 Pollock, Horace fiusscit, George 11. Dunn and Arthur Si, Clair, repiepentatives, ai d John Spencer Sheriff, in this county at the late election. John Dumont and John F. Dufour we learn have been elected representatives in Switzerland county, and Stephen C. Stevens Senator in that and Ripley county. John T. M'Kinney has been elected Senator, David Wallace ard Dan!. St. John representatives, and John Roop Sheriff, in Franklin county. We have had no official return of the votes given in this district for Congress, but have ascertained enough from iodis-

Mr. Milliken was not called on as a witness in these cases. Il is true Mr. Plum mer's name was not thrown into the public paper?, yet he was talked of as a candidate; and I believed he would be one. My own opinion was, that if any person in this township should consent to be a candidate, that he would also; I f mod this opinion well founded for in 1827, when consented to stand as one, then he did too, as also Mr. Heustes; and then 1 gave way a? before. This is what I call declining to favor the pretentions of another; and in this wa ! wished to be understood in my address of the 12ii of July last. And I yet believe this was the bst way to prevent discord when two were spoken of for the same office, before the parlies arrayed themselves.

The Committee further recommend, that the citizens of this District meet on the first Monday in every month until the session of the Legislature, and that the Committee appointed by this meeting, report monthly, at such meetings on the matters entrusted to their care, to the end, that thecitiz-ns may be duly informed of the proceedings of their Committee, and the Committee regularly instructed and directed by their fellow citizens.
siderable majority.
Louisiana Election. The late election in Louisiana has resulted in the success of the entire Administration ticket. Peter Derbigny is elected Governor; White, Gurley, and Brent to Congress. The election in Ky. closed on Wednesday last. So far as the returns have been heard from, Mr. M- t -n!f, the administration candidate foi G v. is about 2400 votes ahead of his rorrnefifor Mr. Barry. In Boone county M . Balsley is elected to the state Legislature by 35 majority over John P. Gaines the former representative. Mr. Balsley is a Jackson man.
Explanation. Some short time cince we copied from a Kentucky paper printed in the lower part of that state, an odd kind of notification, announcing one John Bush as a candidate for the Legislature in Hardin county. Capt. J ho Bush of Boone, Ky. and some others, we leant, have been dissatisfied with that publication, thinking it alluded to him.
To do away any impression of this kind,
tvc will observe that such was no! the fact. The notice was inserted from the Elizabelhtown paper without the Jea3t idea that it might be considered as applying to any person in this part of the country. We say thus much to satisfy Capt. Bush that he is not the man alluded toin the Kentucky paper, or in ours.

The following editorial remarks from the Correa, published at Mexico, May
2d, 1828, will show in what light the
ubject on which it treats is viewed in
the capital of the republic. e should
also mention that the project has been
noticed in other Mexican journals, in a manner which shows the strong interest
excited by it, and some high compli
ments are paid to the intelligence and
cienceof our country man, Mr. btaples. "We yesterday had the satisfaction to
insert a decree of the Congress of the States of C ahuila and T jas, granting to Col. John D i vis Bradburn, and Stephen M Lan Staples, E-q. the exclusive privilege of navigtting the river Bravo del Norte with steam boats for fifteen year-. . "With the navigation of this river by
steam a new and important era will commence in Mexico. uThe three states ofNuevo Leon, Coahuila, Tejas, Chihuahua, and the territory ofNuevo Mexico, which have never enjoyed the advantages of navigation will now receive the products of foreign countries, and export their own products at their own marts. "It is well known that this river is more than 700 leagues in length, and passes through the richest part of Mexico, which produces in abundance, hemp, flax, wheat, c orn, sugar, cochineal, to-
caeco, &e. &c. The mines of gold and
-ilver which are near it are ery rich, nd those of copper, tin, iron, lead, and co il, are abundant. "The advantages which will result to

the cook had swam, and w ith the aid of the brig's crew they succeeded in killing four and making prisoners of seven. The others made their escape to the shore, and two of them were subsequentlv taken, and the whole were carried to Tepie for trial. Wt have seen a letter from this place dated 1st May, which states lhat one of the men confessed the whole plot. They were all to be tried in a few days, and there was littte doubt but the whole would be executed, as the evidence against them was most positive.

Rain and Lightning. On Friday, S;it
urday and Sunday of last week, this
place was visited with heavy showers of rain, accompanied by the most severe lightning and thunder ever witnessed in this part of the country. On Saturdaymorning, about 9 o'clock, the lightning struck the south-west chimney of the brick building in which Mr. Ewing and the persons in this ofiice reside, knocked one half of the top off even with the roof, run down the outer edge of the roof, tearing shingles and the barge board off, until it came to the eve-lrouirh ; the fluid then entered the tin conductor at the corner, descended it to the pavement, and into a barrel full of water, which it burst at bottom as though one hundied musket balls had entered it at once. After escaping from the barrel it dissipated, a3 no further traces of its course could be discovered. We are happy in stating that no injury was sustained by those in the house at the time, though the glass in one window ever the front door was entirely broken out by the tremendous force of the explosion. The damage done the building is inconsiderable, and may easily be repaired.

epidemic exists at this time in our city,
to an extraordinary extent we think we are perfectly within bounds when we say one-fourth of our population have
had, or now have it and every hour appears to be adding to the number. It made its appearance among us about two weeks ajo,- and should it continue to spread much longer as rapidly as it has done the last two weeks, not an individual in the city will have escaped. It has not in any instance proved fatal; but the pain is often very acute, and from its frequently attacking a hale brawny man of C feet in height and 200 pound' weight in the little finger or the great toe, with a severity that almost makes him cry out, affords much meriiment to those who have recovered from or not yet taken it. There appears but little symjHsthy for the sulf rer. Its duration is fiom sis hours to three day s. It is treated mildly a little salts and snake root
