SATURDAY, NOV. 21, 1329.
A sign of the times, The Oaio Son
gives a list of the members of the Ohio legislature, designating the political preference of each, as follows: In the senate 23 AdmiuistratioD, and 13 Opposition. In the house of representatives 39 Administration, and 31 Opposition. Last year the Jackson party formed the minority in the legislature of Ohio. An Eastern paper cautions the public to be on the look out for a new species
of New England fabric, in the shape of
axes. They are made of cast iron, handsomely ground and polished, intended probably for the southern and western markets. Good prospect. If it be admitted that intelligence is the life of liberty, and that the press iff a powerful auxiliary in its dissemination ; then we ought to rejoice that our lot has been cast in the favored land of Indiana. In proof: the late mails brought us the prospectuses of no less than three new papers about to be estab. lisbed in this state, and the germsof.several oihers swelling into flowery existence. These conservators of political and religious freedom, should no rude blast blight them in nurturage, are to be located, in part, in the following places :- One or two in JIdison; two in Indidianapolis; one in Brookville; one in Lawrenceburghj&c. &c. We arc not
exactly advised of the political livery each conductor will assume ou taking
his stand on the watch-tower, but presume that a portion from principle, and
others from interest, will support the
present administration of the general government; others again, from an anti. podical connection, will pursue a Simmzonian course midway the extremes;
and the balance, influenced by none of
these considerations, and despairing ! support by other means, will, at the head
f the disappointed and discontented of
all parties, commence a terrible crfteade against the president and his friend.-, and
epilla stream of ink to show they have spufnk and 6tout hearts. hxdiana Democrat, It well be seen j by reference to a subsequent column, that Mr. Morrison, late editor of the Republic can Statesman, Charlestown, is about to establish a paper at Indianapolis, under the above title. From our knowledge of this gentleman as an editor, we feel encouraged that the friends of the Administration in Indiana .are likely to have a press at the seat of government in
which they can place confidence; one
that will be an honor and a helper to the
cause, instead of hanging like an incu
bus around its neck. We wi6h success
to the undertaking.
Last week we promised further attention to the conductors of the Indianapolis Gazette, hi redeeming this pledge, we shall take a short notice of their ingenuous "postscript," to produce which the intelligence of the whole editorial concern of the Gazette was put under contribution. They do not pretend to deny the subject matter of our article, but by a system of tactics peculiar to themselves, endeavor to direct attention to borne other object. To effect this an effort is made to ihow that we are as dispicable and worthless as themselves. In this, however, their want of generalship fa ludicrously conspicuous. One example will suffice to support this assertion: "We take the liberty (says Mr. Kintiard & co.) of denying him (Mr. Culley) as good authority in a discussion about political consistency. "In proof of this Jc t us ask why have the friends of Gen. Jackson, in his own town, thought it due to themselves and the good of the cause, to patronize another newspaper?" This is the kind of evidence they adduce to show our want of consistency, and prop their own character; but unfortunately for them, like their conversion to Jftckjitfiisfs, it came a little too late to answtr either purpose, as the paper alluded to has been discontinued
We do not consider it necessary. to
say a word in justification of our political course; the support we have received is
sufficient to satisfy us in what light it has
been viewed. Whenever public opinion shall arraign us for inconsistency ,aa it has the conductors of the Gazette, we shall not cowardly shrink from the investigation, and endeavour to hide our faults un
der the cloak of others, but stand or fall on our own merits. The honorable notice the conductors
have been pleaded to take of uj, in connection with the establishment of another paper at Indianapolis, shows conspicu
ously the confusion into which the inti
mation had thrown them. They may rest easy, however, that, though it may not be convenient lor us to take the post
tseigncd, it will be occupied by those
whose talents will render them more
formidable, and whose integrity and con-
istency the gentlemen of the Gazette
dare not doubt.
It is unnecessary to notice the "post.
script" farther: it is all of a piece, and
carries with it its own refutation.
feiturea, scrip has either issued or is now issuable. The balance of the one hundred forfeited tracts has been subject to four different relief laics. The Land Offices have received a circular directing them to return the forfeitures, and tracts forfeited on the 3d day of July last to the General Land Office, to enable that office "to report to the national legislature such particulars
respecting the forfeited lands as may be
required in reference to further legisla
tion respecting them. This letter wilL I trust, throw some
additional light upon the subject, aud 1 hope you will give it a place in your
journal, as my motives for inserting it is
to have as fair understanding ot the matter as possible. I only state facts, the people may draw their own inference. The lands to be sold have by them been sold to the government for other lands, with the exception of about one hundred tracts afs above stated. I am, very respectfully, Your obedient servant WM. H.

Jacksonian. Judge Smith ha9 issued
a bulletin from Indianapolis, announcing his determination to commence this paper immediately ; and calls loudly on the friends of the administration for aid con
juring them to beware of a "fictitious
Democrat, a cast oil Palladium, a Journal or G iette;" in short, "to forsake
all others attd cleave unto him alone," as
their hope and promise. In this attempt
of the Judge to resuscitate the defunct,
it is easy to discover that he has lost coo
fidence iu the ultimate success of the
S'at Gazette; and thus fax he certainlv
discovers judgment and foresight, but
a ;ain forfeits both in the wild project of
attempting to establish tbe Jacksonian. The judge, must have a very exalted opinion of his powers, or a very contemptible one of tbe discrimination of the friends of the administration iu Indiana, to suppose that he can 60 disguise the real character of this paper, as to render it acceptable to the party. But it is only acting up to the character we gave the editors of the Gazette, fome time since, of wish
ing always to be "vicars of Bray." If the Judge would but take our advice, we would say let the Jacksonian rest in peace: it has been duly interred and mourned over; public opinion has written its epitaph, and chaunted a requiem to its shade. N. B. The Judge will please ex
cuse us (or not publishing his bulletin &

Mail Contracts. We learn from the
postmaster here, that tbe propositions of
the following gentlemen have been ac
cepted at tbe general post office, for car
rying some of the mails connected with this place, for the next four years, commencing with January, to wit:-
To Greenville, Ohio, via Brookville, la. &e. Sumitel Hoisted, of Jacksonsburgb la.
To Oxford, Ohio John Boner, of
Vernon, la. To Brookville, la. Luther 1 Unman,
of Fraivktin co. Ia.
To Burlington, Ky. via Petersburg!!
Kiugold, of New Castle, Ky.
We understand that these contracts have been taken at a fourth or a third
lefts than the old contracts; and of course
below the bids based on the supposition
that they would be given at something
like the old rates.
This may account for the rejection of
all propositions from this vicinity.
We have not been aMe to learn the
names of the contractors for the Lruis ville and Indianapolis routes; but tinder stand that they reside in Kentucky.

days since, says the United States Gazette that 1 50 laborers had arrived Ir m England in the Chesapeake, with a view of working on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal. From the Birmingham paper of the 18th of Sept. we infer that certain sharps of England found an opportunity in the demand for laborers, to swindle a vast number of indigent individuals of 1 . .
guineas, unaer preience 01 procuring for them an engagement to come to America. On the first of September, placards were placed upon the walls of the town, stating that ten thousand emigrants were wanted by the Chesapeake and Ohio canal company Persons wishing to undertake, were to call on a man named Webster, have their names registered, and each pay him one guinea. Some hundreds paid their guineas, and were despatched to Liverpool where they learned that, though 600 persons were wanted, Mr. Richardson, the real agent,
