SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 182J.
OCT" We have been requested to announce William James ns ct candidate for justice of the peace, at the eoauiug election in this -township. OCT We are authorised to announce
Ulysses Cook candidate for justice of
the peace in this township.
(r Corporation Election. The qualified electors of the corporation of Lawfenceburgh are hereby notified, that an election will be held at the court house, on Saturday the 29th inst. at 4 o'clock 1 M. to f leet a President, in the room of John Porter, esq. declined serving, and offe member of the select councii vice Amos Lane, esq. absent.
Appointments by the President. Since our last, we have been verbally informed, that Capl. Robert Brackenridge, of Biookvilie, has been appointed R gis'er in the land ctficeat Fort Wayne, vice Capt. Samuel C. Vance, removed. The Charlestown, Ind. paper of the 15th inst., announces the appointment of Ross Smiley, esq., as Register in the land office at JefFersonville, vice Samuel Gwathmey, esq., removed. In noticing the appointments last week we inadvertantly stated that Gen. M'Carty had been appointed "Register," in the land oftice at Fort Wayne: It should have, been Receiver of public moneys at that place. For some days past the Ohio has been rising, and ia now in good stage for boating.
The Aegror.s. By a gcntleovan from
i-incinnaU we learn that a serious affray
took place a few days since iri that tit v,
between some whiles and blacks, which terminated in the death of a young man actively engaged, as we are informed, in
the atidir. lie was killed by the. dis charge of a pistol or gun, the hall pass
ing through his body above the hip bone.
Much - excitetr.ent exists among the
negroes of that city, in consequence of
the Jaw, being1 carried into efTecf, which requires thcKi to give bond and security to the arooant of 500 for their good behaviour, or leave the state. Several have left it threatening to return with arms. Situated as Indiana ic, unprotected by law, we may expect to be over
run with the excommunicated blacks of Ohio and Kentucky. Self defence
tnay require the early attention of our
legislature to this subject.
Hatters in trouble. We learn from
Brookville, that five jolly workers of
beaver, mink, 'coon, aud muskrat, lately found bdgings in limbo, because of a lit
tle difference of opinion among them
selves. We are not informed what the difference was, but understand that the adjustment will require at least one new shirt, a few promises to keep the peace, &c.
either iGtvn or neighborhood. t)f. Howe, M. G. Bright, Woodville Browning, Robert Craig, Adam Moderwell and I. T. Canby are, we are informed,among the greatest sufferers. Election.-Additional returns. Repre

been preferred against this individual,
late 4th auditor, for frauds committed on the United States Treasury, in the
years u(27 and 1 828. On all of these charges bills of indictment, we believe, have been found: aud on 6ome of them
the accused has been tried in fhe dis
trict circuit court, sitting at Washington; but owing to some informality in proceeding, or deficiency in the law, none of
the caue&bave been finally decided on, notwithstanding they have beren under investigation for 8 or 10 weeks. The frauds practised upon the treasury, as charged, are for the following sums: Requisition charged to Hambleton g 2000
chance of beicg popular, annually. Whoever can be elected with these odds against him, saying nothing of the opposition of interested political jugglers, and the comparative difference
between the professional qentlemen of
every country, and the man who earns his living by his labor, must truly be a fortunate man.

Ourself. The multiplicity of business which has engaged the attention of the editor, foreman, head printer, Sic now on duty, has prevented him from saying a word on the subject of the late election; tho' very desirous to show that, notwithstanding he was "distanced" by a number of his competitors, it was not owing altogether (as he believes) to the lack ol "bottom," but attributable to a combination of causes, operating together to place upon his shoulders a weight which e'en Hector himself would have found
it very troublesome to carry. The edi
tor ot the Republican Statesman who by the bye is something of a philosopher
and examines into things, has done up
wind and hail, accompanied by thunder
and lightning, experienced for some years past, passed through this county on Friday evening the 14th inst. It struck the county about the north west corner, and passed, in a southern direction,
through Manchester, Wilmington, to Rising Sun, on the Ohio, laying waste in its progress whole fields of corn, uprooting the timber, destroying the fruit trees, unroofing houses, barns, &c.
throwing over stacks of hay and grain,
and in short, ruining vegetation of almost every kind in ita course for the breadth of a mile and more. Such was the violence of the wind and hail, that it tore the corn up by the roots, and tut it literally to pieces. We understand
one man has offered a reward to any
style, and let ourself off with tolerable credit. It will be seen by the following from his pen, and it is done with math
ematical precision, that it is most as uos-
Storm. The most violent storm of sible for a camel to go through the eye
of a needle, as an editor to be elected to office. An editor, says he, prints 52 papers a year, and consequently stands 52 chances to offend to 0 to nlease.
Kentucky Elections. According to the Kentucky Reporter of the 12th inst. (a Clay paper) the following is the result of the election for members of congress: JamesClark, re-elected;?. M. Johnson, in place of R. McHatton; John Kinkaid in place ofT. V. Moore; Charles Wickliffe, re-elected ; Joseph Lecompt, reelected; A. D. Coleman, in place of J. Chambers this was MetcaK'd district; Henry Daniel, C. Lyon, Joel Yancey, Thomas Chilton and R. P. Letcher, reeJected; Buckner's district not heard irom. In the above list, the names of Jacksonians arc in italics. Should the above prove correct, the Kentucky delegation in the next Con
gress will be nine for the present administration and three opposed to it; and including the Senators, 11 to 3. jYat. Repub. The National Intelligencer states that on Wednesday "Tobias Watkins, was found guilty on each of the three indictments on which he has just been tried namely, for misdemeanor at common law, in having, in his capacity of Fourth Auditor, and ostensibly for the public service, but falslyand fraudulently , and by false pretences, obtained diverse sums of public money, and converted them to his own private use. The cases tried were the two on which the former
juries could not agree and new trials
were granted, viz: the 300 dollar and 750 dollar cuses, in which these sums were drawn from Mr. Paulding, Navy Agent at new York; and the 2000 case, in which this sum was drawn from Mr. Harris, Navy Agent at Boston. As soon as the verdict was received, Mr. Coxe moved ah arrest of Judgment and a new trial." Bait. Amer.

Baltimore, July 17. Melancholy Occurrence. We learn that a pleasure boat, with six persons on board, was capsized yesterday afternoon, during the tremendous squall with which
we were visited, opposite iur. JLittle
person who will find one souod ear of Statesman savs:
corn in a held of his of 50 acres. We
have not heard of any lives lost, or personal injury sustained. We discover by the Madison paper of the 12th inst. that that town has been visited by a similar calamity with a part of this county. The following is the account of it as published: Hurricane. Just as our paper was going to pres?, this morning about 6 o'clock, ,a very severe hurricane passed through this town. The wiod was from nearly a due west course.. The damage sustained by the citizens of Madison, is very considerable. Fences and trees have been blown down, many buildings unroofed, and several others razed to the ground. The . Presbyterian church, which is quite a spacious building, is wo fear quite ruined. Fortunately, however, we have not, as yet, heard o( any lives having been lost; though we Tuvenot now time or opportunity, as our press ia stopped for this piece, to ascertain half the damage sustained by
The calculation is understood to anwlv
to one editor to each paper, and that to extend it to two, the chances increase in a double proportion that is to 104 to 0. Now for an application of the principle: Clark county, at the late election, gave 1419 votes; of those friend Morrison, with 52 chances against him, received 607 votes, and was elected. Ourself, with 104 chances against, received 353
votes out ot 1690. The question now rais
es, as to what bearing an increase of
chances in the one case, or a reduction in the other, would have had upon the
result But hear what the editor of thp
jthis electioneering business iu good john's hotel, and all on board perished.
A number of persons were on the shore, in sight, hut for want of a bot could not render assistance to the unfortunate sufferers. Two men in a fishing boat in
their auxiety to reach them broke one of j
their oars. We have heard the names of but two of these drowned: Mr. Smith, tavern keeper, in Bond street, F. P. and his son, about 8 years of age. One of the men was seen struggling for 1 5 or 20 minutes after the boat capsized. Ladie Cheapening Goods. Not rmny summers since, two dam3eJs dressed in overflowing style of country taste, i. e. flowers, feathers, ribbons &c. promenading our streets, dropped into our drv
good stores and examined calicoes, chintzes,, bombazine?, bombazets, lawn,
itnen, crapes, hose, handkerchiefs, Szc.
and walked out saying, "they icould look
jurther, ana would call again. After a
long tour of observation, and many talks with shopmen, they succeeded in purcha
sing a pair of whole fats. Before eoine l a a i .i r- O O
uome, iney went to me l ost (Jnice and asked for letters: two were found in their address.- "How much are they V 6aid the damsels. "Twelve and a half cents each," replied the office clerk. "Twelve and a half!" exclaimed the damsels, "'fpose you'll let us have them cheaper, if we take both?" "Cannot do it," said the clerk. "Uncle Sam will net allow
it." "V hy can't you ask your Uncle?" Perhaps hell let us have them, tf we take both for twenty cents!" rejoined the shoppers!! Here's cheapening for you. Salem Courier.
JYo less strange than true. While we perceive that some of our brother Editors, in this State, have been unsuccessful in the late Election, we have the gratifying intelligence to communicate, that we of the Statesman, have been more fortunate, and have been honored with a seat in our next Legislature. It is seldom that an Editor of a public journal can so guard his conduct, as to keep a majority of the people friendly to him self, at any one time, although they mayhave been, each in his turn, his supporter and friend. The reason is something like this: -An Editor is nothing more than a human being, loaded with the imperfections of his nature, liable to err and to ofTend his patrons and readers, are also human beings liable to be offended and to be erred against! Ergo if there ever be error or offence it must be on the part of the Editor; and inasmuch as he publishes 52 papers in each year, he consequently stands 52 chances tobecojus unpopular ia opposition to 0
