slitute J before which transgressor! are frequently brought, and punished for any the slightest offences against the peace and order of society ; but the vice of gaming, although one of the most flagrant character, and one which is strictly prohibited by oQr statutes, has long appeared impervious to the law, and at the de

fiance of i ts most rigid scrutiny. The reason may be found in the systematic

movements of these nocturnal associations none being admitted into a knowledge of their secret operations, except those who are willing to become participants in their crime, or some witless

tyro whom they design to Jlcece. This precaution is taken, the better to secure

together vlih the by-law?, catalogue ofl

students, and several other matters?, wll he published prior to the commencement of the summer session. Dr. Wylie has recently visited Bloomington; and the Board entertain pretty confident expectations that he will accept the appointment which is offered him. It is, therefore, their wish to have the counsel of Dr. VVylie on several subjects, and especially in relation to the course of studies to be pursued; and hence they deem the present publication sufficient. S'udents designing to enter College, will present themselves for examination a few days previous to the commencement of the session.

Melancholy. An Indian was precipitated from the top of the stairs at Peale's museum, on Friday evening last; his skull was much broken, and he died the next morning. A coroner's inquest was held, the verdict of which was, we understand, that the Indian came to his death in consequence of being pushed down stairs by Henry R. Storms. H was bailed in the sum of 2000. We have since learned that a person attached to the museum, is willing to make an affidavit, stating that Mr. Storms was not near the Indian at the time the

disaster took placed Vtica Sentinel

the effect to decrease the price in the Cincinnati market. At present flour cannot be had in this place by the barrel at less than 5 75 to 6. Farmers who have flour to sell, had better avail themselves of the present opportunity to dispose of it, at an advanced price. The fall of snow and the heavy rains that succeeded it, have not been without their effect on the river. For some days

past it has been rising rapidly; which,

added to the gradual swell for weeks past, has raised it many feet, and opened

to our traders the pleasant prospect of

an early and speedy conveyance of their produce to the lower country market. Elections.-'XYc are enabled to-day to present our readers with the complete returns of the Presidential election in Ohio, Kentucky and Pennsylvania. In N. York, it is stated Jackson has received 20 electoral votes, by the people; to

which may be added the two others chosen by the electors making 22. The whole of the New England vote, except one in Maine, has gone for Mr. Adams making 50. Virginia has given to Gen. Jackson 7,929 majority. We shall be able to give the result of this state next week, as also some others not yet heard from.

Indiana Journal. The editor of thi?

paper proposes issuing the Journal twice

a week during the session of the legisla

ture. The advantages presented to the

public by this arrangement we hope will

fee duly appreciated, and the worthy con

ductor liberally rewarded for his trouble.

Beets. The editors have been presented with four beets, grown in the garden

of the hon. John Test, of this place,

weighing together 22 lbs. The largest weighed 9 14 pounds, and measured in circumference 22 inches, and in length 24, after losing some in pulling up. They are sound and tender as beets of the ordinary 6:ze.

As the laws of the land have been found inadequate either to suppiess or punish the practice of gambling, let it be met with the universal repiehensiun of a moral community, and we doubt not but the progress of the evil will be eventually checked, and many of our you t us saved from impending ruin, whose pros pects would otherwise be swollowed up in that desolation and wretchednt ?& which is invariably entailed upon its victims.

Jin Offer. The carrier of the Palladium offers to the writer of the best poetical New-Years' Address, for 1829, the fifth volume of the Palladium complete. The piece to contain not more than 150 lines, subject to the decision of the editors on its merits.

FOR THE PALLADIUM. Messrs. Gregg and Culley: Having discovered that some young gentlemen of our place are in the habit of convening at one of our village Hotels, and playing cards for money, a part or the whole of the night permit me to notify them., through your paper, that unless they absent themselves immpdink-ty, and wholly discontinue the practice, their names will be made known to the public. Yours respectfully, A CITIZEN.

In compliance with the wish of a res pectable citizen of this place, we have published the foregoing note. Reluctant

as we always are, to give publicity lo

any article reflecting upon the character or conduct of any of our citizens, we could uot refrain from giving the above a place in our paper, and accompanying it with our own feeble admonitory remarks.

Journeyman Hatters. Perhaps there i no clabs of men, more united in the bonds of good fellowship and feeling than are the hat manufacturers.

are told, lately went to a dealer in wool

to purchase about twenty pounds of that

article,carrying, as usual, a sack to putit

in. When the sack was filled, the steel

aras were not at hand to weish it.

The dealer immediately went in pursuit

tomer looked with an evil eye upon a lot ol fine cheese in the same room with the wool and hastily put one of the finest,

weigning nearly twenty pounds in his sack, mixing it with the wool as the expression was, supposing he had obtained a valuable prize. On his return, the dealer quickly perceived by the weight of the sack, that his honest friend had put a cheese there. He said nothing, but quietly weighed it. His customer said nothing but as quietly paid him fifty cents a pound for his cheese under the denomination of wool.

One of the crew of the Macedonian, having received the wages of the late three ye ars cruise, went with the money in his hand into a store, and having purchased a nocket-bok, put the roll of

notes in his waistcoat pocket, and the book into that of his round jacket. The store keeper told him that it is the fashion to put the money into the pocket book; but the sailor affirmed, he was up to the tricks ofthe land lubbers, and went off. the next day he returned to the store, exclaiming in great glee, 4ifhev1ve rrot it rive me anotherf'
