LAWRENCEBURGH. S.tf TUHDAY, SEPT. '26, 1829. The circuit court will commence its silting in this place on Alondaj the 5th jof October ni xf. 3So material change having taken place in the Cincinnati market, v?e omit the publication of the prices current toc day. 1 ' 0r We have been requested to say that Andrew Morgan will be voted for as Trustee of the School 6eclion,vicp D. El der, esrj. decM. Election 3d Oct. next, at the house of Jas. M'Lta'ler on the bee. The Indians. Much apparent solicitude has been manifested by newspaper writers on behalf of the Indians residing within the limits of the states; and no little pains taken to represent the talk of the president to the Creek nation, encouraging them to remove to the west, as cruelly oppressive and unjust. To-day we give a letter from the secretary of war, expressive of the views of the president, in relation to the Indian tribes, which we think ought to satisfy ever) dispassionate mind ol the humane dipo,rition of the executive towards the red people. JVezo Orleans. Otir latest dales from New Orleans, represent the Mississippi as low and markets dull. No demand for produce except for home consumption ; which, owing to the great mortality raging in the city, was greatly limited. The wdather up to the 22d ult. had been wet, and the unpaved streets almost im passable. It is stated that a number of hearses broke dow n in the mire conveying the dead to interment, and that on several occasions the coffins were taken out at every square. The deaths from about the 15th to the last of August, were from 50 to 80 per day. One case of yellow fever occurred in Natchez ' on the 2Mb ult.; the papers of that city, however, assure the public that there is no cause of alarm, as the deceased had just landed from behw. We learn that A thur S. C. Vance, esq of this place, has received a hand some little appointment ir m Mr. Lytle. Surveyor General of the Ohio land trict, of seven townships surveying in the country northwest of Fort Wayne The performance of this duty will, it is sunnoaed. enpape Mr. Vance about 3' months. He is well qualified for the , task, and in other respects very deserv ing of the appointment conferred on him. Let us have more of such reform. Editorial Change. A. F. Morrison, esq. late editor of the Republican Statesman, Charlestown, Tnd. has disposed of U interest in that establishment toi Henry Collins. During the short period Mr. Morrison conducted the Statesman, we can injustice say he displayed a respectable editorial talent, and did much, very mucb, towards improving "the condition of the press in Clark county. We wish him peace and happiness in his retirement. "The Journal of Health." We have been politely favored with a copy of a new work undsr the above title, and from a cursory examination of its con

patronage of the public. Medical gentlemen,and others disposed to encourage a work which has more the prevention than the cure of disease for its object, are invited to call and examine it. The Journal of Health is issued from Philadelphia, senrhmonthly, in Nos. of of 1 6 pages, octavo, at the rate of 1 ,25 per year in advance. When room permits we ehall give the prospectus and terms an insertion. River Trade. The superabundance of the substantial of life, which attended the industry of our farmers the past season, ha3 drawn the attention of traders to the river business at an early period this year. Notwithstanding the loweess of the river, two flat boats departed from our landing the past week, laden for the
lower market, and several more are fit
ting to start shortly. Curiosity prompted us, on a former occasion, to keep a list of the boats and lading departing from Luwrenceburgh but the attempt was attended with so much difficulty, that we abandoned it a the end of one season. This season we intend to continue the list, and hope to be assisted in the undertaking by the owners and shippers of produce. No. 1. September 23. Departed flat boat, Thomas Shaw, owner.

K. Galxy & Boston JVIercury. FOREIGN NEWS. From Colombia and Mexico. Captain Boisiere, of the brig Seraphim, which ar rived at Baltimore on the 4th in?t. in 16 days from Chagres, informs that on the 1 1 ; h of August, a Government vessel arrived from Guayaquil at Panama, the Captain of which came down bearing despa ches from Bolivar. Nothing offi l i. l a ; l i i i i . ciai iiau ir pgpirea ; out me vernal re port of the officers and others on board was, that Bolivar had just entered Guayaquil when they sailed the Peruvian army having abandoned it some days previous, after destroying or carrying offevery thing like ammunition or articles of war and were then at Piura. There had been a revolution in Bolivia. Gen. Gamarra had eent the Presi dent of Bolivia, G-'ii. Lamar, onboard a vessel sailing for Chili, with private ordeis to shoot him on the pas.-agc. Gen. Santa Cruz had been elected President of Bolivia, and had dissolved the Con gress. It was the general opinion at Panama that there was much important information suppressed by the officers nd others who arrived in the vessel at Panama. Capt. B. came in the capes wall the schr. Spartan, whose Captain informed mm that previous to having left Havana, part ol the reu of war and transports had n-turned from Tampico after landing and taking possession of of that place hp further stated, that the Mexican troops had immediately dis-ijd the SPanish ymy,and the Span Letters have been received at Phila delphia from Vt ra Cruz via New Orleans, dated July 31. The embargo had been taken off, and all the vessels aljjpwedto depart. Letters at Vera Cruz from Campeachy, dated July 25, say the invading fleet had not yet appeared, and the com try was quiet. Front Europe. A few items of foreign news have been rece'Vtd at New-York, by the Columbia, from London, which brought papers to July 31. A Paris paper says, "It seems that the sum of 175,000,000 francs, which has been offered to the Spanish Governm n't for the conquest of M xico, would be produced by a loan, to be made by the ol that country whofrom it j ancient possessors have been expelled Accounts from St. Petersburg! are to July 15. News had been received there from Tiflis of a new victorv gained over large bodies of Turks on the 14th June, who had assembled in the defile of Poztov. The enemy lost their camp, a large quantity of ammunition and provisions, 400 prisoners, five standards, and all their artillery. The Turks whos force amounted to 15,000 men, l t 1200 in killed and wounded. The witsch was still at Kars, but was prepa ring to attacK tne oerasKier nimselr, who, with an army of 50,000 men, was about forty miles from that fortres?. The contents of the continental Journals received this morning, say s the Lon don Courier of July 31, lead us to ex pect some very important accounts from the theatre of war in the east. A French paper mentions a rumor from Constantinople that the P-irte had already rejected the protocol of March 22d, relative to the affairs of Greece, but the rumor is not credited. Arrests, trials, and confiscations continued in Portugal. The public mind continues to be agitated by reports of changes about to take place in the British ministry, all agreeing that the present Lord Chancellor mustffo out, and many asserting that Mr. Huskisson must come in. The Courier states that all the rumors rela-
tive to the anticipated changes in the Cabinet are utterly false. Paris letters of Jul? 27, state the following as the new appointments in the French mioistr) : M. Polignac, to be President of the Council ; Mr.Hurnaban, Minister of Finances; Martignac, at the head of foreign Affairs; Debelleyeme, Minister of the Interior. The other Ministers to remain as before. A coroner's inquest had been held in England on the body of a prize fighter named Frederick VVinkworth,and a verdict of manslaughter rendered against VVm. Davis as principal to the second: of the parties.
From the Mobile Register of August 21. Jack Waters. This nctoriousdepredator who for seveial months past has been prowling about this vicinity, robbing nouses, kitchens and poultry ynrds, and! ho has hitherto eluded the vigilance ot the Patrol and Police, was on W ednes day morning last apprehended ad safely lodged in jail. For more than 12 months this leliow has kept the City, and especially its suburbs, in a constant slate oi alarm, and on one occasion appeared in town in the day time armed, and bidding deh aice to all who attempt od to interrupt him. It appears that he had got tired of hi retreat in the swamps adjacent to the City, and for the last month or two opt ed !he muxirn ot quartering on the enemy tie accordingly provided himself ill pleasant lodgings in ihe vacani dwelling of Mr. lialie t on Government street, whence he sallied as nis necessities oi convenience pr mi: ted. But his success ent him courage beyond his discretion, md he exposed hansel t to the observa ion ol a slave belonging to the estate oi the late Kobert lilackwcil, who, nar ioiy waicniniT mm, discovered ins re i i i li. treat on Tuesday nitiht. Earlv on Wed nesday morning he gave notice to the ohce, w ho surrounded the house, and on demanding a, surrender found their antagonist armed for the content, and full H M"1' AI,e brunt of the battle fell on Mr. Stafford of the City Police, who was badly cut in the head and hand, and on Mr. Kami n Soto. When Jack found Ihe battle waxing too hot he abandoned his citadel and took to the fieids, where he was final fy w ounded l.y a pistol shot and taken pris oner. Much credit is due Mr- Staliord aiid Mr. Soto for the cool and determined bravery they manifested on the occasion, and some idea may be formed of the value which the citizens generally set up o itheaid rendered by the negio, when we state that from a voluntary subscription immediately set on foe t for that ob ject, between four and five hundred dol lars were promptly raised for the purchase of his freedom. The Right Hon. and Rev. Earl Nelson, father of the great Admiral, was lately married in London, to the widow R.rl - years of age, and seems determined sanction, by conduct, the motto of his gallant son "England expects every man to do his duty!" An 'affray took place at the house of Mr. Se. lv, at Hector fall?, on the 21st ult. A drunken fellow by the name of iUcuuhim struck another named Talk, while sittif gin his cI.hu; Talk rose immediately, knocked Mf Duffie down, and kicked him in his -ide, which caused immediate death. Talk has been committed for trial. We have often been pestered with Talk, but never dreamed of bodily injury from it. Longevity. There are six brothers now living, of whom judge Chinman,
