The post office at liandysburgli, Boone county, Ky. has been discontinued, arid a new office established at Big Bone Lick in that county. The Ohio river is still covered with floating ice, and all navigation suspended. We understand that it is frozen over a short distance above Cincinnati. Flour. It will be seen, by reference tp the Cincinnati prices current, that this article has declined to 6 50 to 6 75 per barrel. We have been informed by a entlenan directly from Cincinnati that a further reduction had taken place. Gen. Jackson, on his way to Washington, arrived at Pittsburgh on the 26th ult. His reception in that city was of the most enthusiastic and complimenta
ry character. For some time after hind, ing the street to his lodgings was go crowded by the populace, pressing forward to procure a view of their favorite, that it was found impossible to proceed, and the General Co:. drained to enter a neighboring hotel. After de laying one day, during which he visited several fac-

Elections. Peleg Sprague has been elected United States' senator, by the legislature of Maine, vice John Chandler, whose term of service expires on the 3d of March next. The vote for Sprague was 105, for Chandler 40. The legislature of New Jersey have elected Theodore Flelinghuysen United States' senator, to supply the place of Mahlon Dickerson, whose term of service expires on the 3d of March next.
Mr. Dickerson was subsequently elected to fill the place of Dr. Batcman, who had resigned his seat in the senate of the United States. The elections for senator's bcinsr now over, it is estimated, by Nile?, that the senate, on the 4th of March, will stand in favor of the new administration thus New York, Virginia, North Carolina,

U e understand that about one hundred and eighty or t7co hundred emigrants are expected to sail in this expedition, FrtJm there being a Printer among them, we suppose that the Colonial newspaper which was interrupted last year by the printer's death, will be revived. The fact, mentioned in the extract, of the a-
mount of property and provisions which nearly all these people have been enabled by their own industry, or by the charity of others, to carry with them, would seem to be very unfavorable to the opinion of some opponents of the scheme, who have asserted that in addition to the cost of conveying emigrants to Africa, it will be necessary to expend
mucn more lor their support after the) arrive. Bait. Gaz.
(ErThe public presses from Georgia to Maine, are with one accord commiserating the hard lot of Ex-President Monroe, who is said to have left his office absolutely poor. We commiserate poverty every where, and would relieve distress in all instances, but we do detest (his cry, so soon got up, for our public officers, after they have ceased to receive the people's money.

he arrived at Union Town Pa. where hejment and punishment the unprincipled
partook of a sumptuous dinner prepared
by the citizens. He was travelling in a private carriage, drawn by four beautiful grey horses, accompanied by a number of ladies and gentlemen, principally
of his household.
Through the polite attention of the
member in congress from this district,
Mr. Smith, we have been favored with a document from the post office department, showing the "nett amount of postage accruing at each post office in each state and territory, for the year ending 31st March, 1328." The nett amount of postage received at the post offices tn this county, for the above term, as shown liy this statement, was ,$414 89 viz: at Lawrenceburgh, 186 03; Rising Sunf 87 70; Aurora, 39 80; Hartford, $33 92; Manchester, 22 63; Wilmington, 18 43; Hardinsburgh, 11 75; Moore's Hill, 7 92; and Murray's Mill, 6 71.
The nett amount received throughout
the state was 7,905 00. The largest
amount at any one office was at Indian apolis, 379 23. The receipts at Win
Chester, Randolph county, are put down in the statement at 1,402 83; we think
this an error, either in printing or in copying from tke books of the post office, as it is hardly to be believed that the re ceipts of postage in that county could possibly amount to nearly four times as much as in this county with a population trebling tiiat of Randolph. From the same gentleman we have also received a copy of the report made in the house of representatives, on the
subject of Sunday mails, accompanied by
a letter from the postmaster general on
that subject. The letter we give to-day. It is considered unnecessary to publish the report, as it varies but little from
that made in the senate, except that it recommends a repeal of that part of the post office law which requires postmasters to deliver letters and papers on Sunday; the recommendation we hope will not besanctioned,as it would undoubtedly lead to the very same consequences anticipated by a stoppage of the mail on that day viz: the employment of pri-
wretch,who lost to all moral orrehViou-
feeling, could wickedly and maliciously profane the holy sanctuary of the Most High. The outrage committed we un
derstand to have been the Jiveaking of
the windows and otherwise injuring the kEbenczar Church." Whereas, we. the subscribers, inhabitants of Manchester township, have had our feelings very much excited in consequence of the base, perfidious and unprecedented attack lately made upon the Ebenezer Church, within our vicinity; we therefore, for the purpose of sustaining the character of our neighborhood, and for the purpose of detecting the nefarious villain that has thus offended, c thai he may be punished for his infamv, vtYar a reward of TWENTY DOLLARS to any person that shall make known unto us the person who thus abused the Ebe
nezer Church, if such person so inform
ing shall be' sufficient evidence to convict said villian for his infamy. We further resolve, that we will exert ourselves in detecting every species of infamous conduct that may or shall occur in our neighborhood; in witness
whereof, we subscribe our names, Janu

have such high-sounding claims upon
public sympathy and public charity, while he who has had nothing from the national chrt pines without a thought. If a clerk in one of the Departments, who has earned his dollar a day by writing from morning till night, and thereby impaired his constitution and brought oil a premature death, sjionld leave a family of children poor, would his family hive such a. powerful claim upon Congress, or the editorial corps. Our word for it, they would live and die a? he left them, poor and neglected, unl ess by their own exertions thev were enabled to al ter their situation. Thus, the one Mho has expended half a dozn fortunes, is
pitied for hi- poverty and his hardships,
while Che other, who never had one to spend, is not thought of. We do not wish to say any thing against James Monroe; he was a good and faithful officer, and faithfully did the public remunerate him; and let that be the end of it. If the people owe him,
let him be paid; but this precedent oil
giving money to those who retire from office, is a bad one absolutely a bad
DIED At his residence in lawrenceburgh,
on the 14th February inst. DANIEL fJAGERMAN, Esq. in the 32nd year of nil age, nod ntxt day, alter a very pathetic and aflVctiirg discourse, delivered by th Rev. Lucius Alden, from Revelation xiv, 15, his remains were followed to the grave bj his weeping widow and children, accompanied by a hrge concourse of sympathizing citizens. He has left an amiable widow , and four small female children, to mourn an early separation from their earthly supporter; and society ras to deplore the los of one of its brightest ornaments, cut off in the flower of his days and amidst ex
pensive usefulness. J be public Las lost the
able and ujnght magistrate; the neighborhood has lost a useful, cheeiful, companionable member, whose walk through life was truely exemplary, and worthy of imitation; for in him was to be found, the trusty friend, the affectionate relation, the conscientious man of business, the pious worshipper, and the public spirited citizen. His disease vas lingering, violent, and obstinate, baffling the power of mdicine and skill of the most eminent physicians. He
was attacked about the first of August by a rupture of a blood vessel, occasioned as is believed by too cluse application to business at the desk, which ended as is supposed in a dropsy in the chest. His sufferings were extreme, with very short intermissions from his
first attack until death relieved him from pain, all which he bore with that patience and forti
tude that was to be expected from bis charac
ter. J he loss to his final? is indeed very crest.
but for tbera one consolation remains, they will never have to blush for the conduct or
character of the husband or father.

EMIGRATION TO LIBERIA.

This undertaking we have lonp r g;trded as one ofthe most important ever suggested to our country, and thus far one of the most successful and encouraging. Worfoik, Jan. , 2", 'th, 1329.

ference to the indiscreet practice of signing petitions w ilhout understanding
their contents or their import or knowing the character who solicits the signature, or the person who may be recommended "It has of late become a sort of by-word, that signatures maybe obtained for any thing. Not long" since, a license, it is said, w as procured in a certain great city for a woman to sell drams. On examination it turned out that she kept a house of doubtful reputation, and that her petition was signed by six professors of religion." Such is the facility with which men are indoced to put their r.nmes to anypaper, which may not oblige tUemtopny money, that, we doubt not, a petition might be got up, sustained by along list of respectable names, to have any individual in the country hanged.
