this he hag had sufficient proof in frequent appointments tendered him by public meetings, and in being dpeigna ted a member of the Jackson Centra! Committee, by the convention which met at the seat of government; the same convention which Mr. Kinnard, though present and invited, did not attend, for certain reasons best known to himself. Mr. Allen was a member of this convention,

Mall robbers. -The Kimberton mail was stopped on the Lancaster turnpike yesterday morning, at half past 3 o-clock, near the one mile stone, by three white men armed with pistols. They tied the passengers (two in number, whom they robbed of about 50) and driver. They then took out the mail, cut it open and took off the contents. The driver and

tion. By nexunday's mail we shall

have the proceedings for this week.

Since our notification of the unfortu

nate issue of Sam Patch's leap q( 125

feet over the Genessee falls, we see it

stated that he is not only alive, but hale and hearty having reached the water uninjured, and swam ashore. We are,

howemer, still disposed to believe the

most probable wpbrt of the case, and 8et Sam down as really dead. Should

any one feel disposed to question our

conclusion, let him try a jump of half the

distance, to satisfy himself of its proba ble correctness.

jr. a. oince writing me above we

have seen a letter from under Sam's own hand, stating that the report of his

death is a hoax; and that the Sam repre 8ented as having been killed, was no

thing but a man of straw. "There is no

mistake in the real Sam Patch."

The Ohio river is still in fine stage for

navigation, though not qyite so high as it was during the past week. Steam

boats pass and re-pass over the falls, and -ascend as far as Wheeling and Pittsburgh. Within a few days several rafts of pine lumber passed this place, for the lower market; from which we conclude that the waterB at the head streams have been high, particularly in the Allegheny. The conductors of the State Gazette, acting up to their promise of moderation, have let us off on very easy terms, in their paper of the 36(h ult. Only onj

small paragraph is inserted for our bene. Jit; and that an extract from the Salem "Annotator" of June last. The sum to

tal of this extract is, that Mr. Culley,

the junior editor of the Indiana Palladium, is a candidate to represent Dearborn county in the legislature, and that he (Mr. Allen, the editor of the Annota-

tbr) is unable to tell,om the Palladium,

to which party he (Mr. C.) belongs. What the conductors of the Gazette

wish to prove, or disprove by inserting

this remark ot Mr. Allen, perhaps a subsequent paper may develope; at present

vre can only consider it, as heretofore as

an idle production of a mind, which tho1 it could not say ill of us, was disposed to ke.. p as close to the border as possible. On several occasions Mr. Alien has thought proper to notice this paper in a manner not justified on liberal grounds, or by his own course. We have passed those attacks by, however, as not meriting reply ; and should still do so, were it not that our silence might embolden others to take similar liberties. It is well known to the readers of the Palladium, that an irreconcilable difference of opinion existed between the late associate and the present editor, on the presidential question ; and that owing to this difference the paper was commenced and conducted during the partnership on neutral principles as neither could, without interferi: g with the rights of the other, take a decided stand in support of his opinions. In this course (we speak for ourselves) there was no inconsistency, no vacillating to keep on the strong side, no surrender of principle tor pecuniary advantage, nothing dishonorable. The editors in commencement rtadc no other profession than that of neutrality, and to the end of the partnership, the character assumed was supported at least so say Mr. Kinnard and Mr, Allen The restrictions imposed by this association, did not extend farther than to the management of the paper; in all other things touching the interests ofj tbe partiesto which the editors belonged, they were at perfect liberty to act as might be thought mcrst proper. And so far as concerns the present editor,his course, though rnoJerate, wag nevertheless derided, unequivocal, and, as he believes.

satisfactory to his political frteijds-. Of

A most dreadful combat took place on Tuesday last week, among the canal men at the Great Dam, in Swatara township, Lebanon count)', Pennsylvania.

Trade to the Black Sea. The treaty of peace concluded between Russia and Turkey has permanently established the free ingress and egress of American vessels to and from the Black Sea; and must afford a fresh spur to navigation. Advices from Constantinople to the ICth September have been received, at which time the most perfect tranquility prevailed there and commercial cnterprize was reviving. The prices of silk had

- risen ten per cent. Notwithstanding the difficulty of obtaining firmans, many American vessels have passed to and

from the Black Sea, and opened trade with many ports of a region which has for centuries been nearly unknown to the great commercial world, but which are known to abound in valuable products and intelligent merchants. The

American character for probity-, enter

prize and liberality, has already been established at Smyrna, Constantinople,

and ports ot trie iMixine; and it need not be stated, that for rapid navigation and

economy ot expenses they are not behind

any nation ot the world.

If any adventurers can find new mar

kets fur investments, products, and sui

plus manufactures, they can. They are already acquainted with the way, and heed not fear competitors. The Turkish trade for many years until recent

times; was nearly monopolized by the

ur-eks, and was to them a source of lm

mense wealth. Although they are now

at peace with 1 urkey, and are indepen

dent, a deep root of enmity still exists between them and the Turks. A loner

time must ineretore elapse before they

can again become navigators for their old masters, and a much longer time before they can sujccesfully compete with American enterprise and capital; and

the good will which lias been established in the minds of the commercial Turks in their favour. Boston Centinel.
