LAWRENGEBURGH. Lottery. We are requested by Mr. Gould to say that his drawing is postponed to, and will taUe place on, the 3J of Jul next. A bill has passed congress, and been approved by the president, appropriating 100,000 to Ohio, 60,000 to Indiana, and 40,000 to Illinois, for the purpose of opening, grading and bridging the Cumberland road through those states. Thus it will be seen that while the president rejects sectional improvements, he does not withhold his sanction from those that are national in their character. JSezopaper. We have received the first No. of "The Madison 11-rald," a handsome imperial sheet issued from IVladison in this 6tate. The Herald is edited by Mr. M. G. Bright, published by Mr. N. Bolton, and supports the national administration. The conductors have our best wishes for their success. We are pleased in being able to state that the loss of thj brig William on her passage from New Orleans to Havanah, tho' confirmed, was not attended with any lost of lives. The vessel foundered olIKey West, whither her cargo (hogs) Vvas taken by the "wreckers for adjudication The court of admiralty allowed them one 4th of the cargo, and the balance was shipped for Havanah. We are informed that of the 180 hogs put on board the bus "W. by Mr. E. II. Hudson, of Brookville only about 70 'arrived at Hivanah, and yet he made a saving trip! Mr. II. passed through this place a lew days since, on his way home. The river has been falling the week past, but is slill high enough to admit steam boats across the falls. The presidents veto'. The Opposition have at last got fairly astride a hobby, which they think cannot fail to carry their favorite "Star in the west," to the zenith of his ambition. The veto of president, rejecting the Maysville, Washington, Paris, and Lexington turnpike road bill, is exultingly pointed to, to show the hostility of the administration tojinternal improvements. . This simple act, tho' of no more importance to the people of the vrest in general than the tunnel under the Thames, is to revolutionize the country; and for fear the people will see through and detect the imposition that is practising upon them, garbled extracts only are made from the able mcssago of the president, disclosing his views and reasons for returning the bill without his signature. Is such conduct fair is it honorable? If the principles involved in the message are ol such a character as the opposition would fain make the people believe, they are at least deserving of publication, that all may sec and judge for themselves. The attempt of of certain editors to palm their opinions and arguments on the public for those of the president, will never do. The people are not to be cozened in that way they must and will have "light," tho' it be deatli to the opposition. The delusion of the late administration, and which artful politicians have labored to prolong, is rapidly passing away before the light of reason. Indiana is erect and unwavering, and when the proper time arrives, will be found rallying, for the third time, round the stern republican who dares to be honest and independent n the "worst of times." The following vote in the lower house upon the bill, after its return with the president's objections, will show the light in which they were viewed in that house; for instead of having twothirds (the number necessary to pass a bill rejected by the president,) there was barely a majority of the members present in favor of its passage. .

From the above, and the vote in the senate, (inserted in No. 19,) it will be seen that the Indiana delegation in congress went together for the bill, with the exception of Mi. Test, winvoted in the negative. JIoMirg it to be th duty ot the representative to advocne and support the interests cf hU constituents, we were a little surprised to see our representative. in opposition to a measure of so much importance to this state. We hope,huwever, that his course on the bill was dictated b) motives of humanity to the Indian, and not by the party spirit which entered much into the debate and decision of the question. We have Mr. Test's views at length on the bill, which we shall, so soon as room can be spared, lay before our readers. This will give the public an oppurtunity of judging for themselves. JJrs. Barney. The opposition edi tors seem greatly enamoured with the letter of this lady to president Jadcscn, scolding him fur removing her husband from a lucrative otljce winch he had held 18 or 20 years! In their estimation, it is a masterly production; discovering great powers of mind, and assuming premises and advocating doctrine that ought to place her high in the niche of fame. Joan of Arc is regarded as a fool, and the madame de Siael of the age, Mrs. Royali, only learning her first lesson, when compared with her. We have no apology to offer for laying before our readers ihe following notice of Mrs. Carney, from the pen of the able editor cf the Delaware Gazette. Whenever a woman shall so far loigei the respect due to her station as to obtrude herself upon the public eye, by assuming prerogatives which of right do not belong to her, she loses that claim to icgard and courtesy, which we hope ever to see ex'ented to the fair of our country by the editorial corps. That which to every lady should be ;s an agis of protection, has been by Mrs. B. sacrificed at the shrine of party violence, and she now stands before the public as one exercising the powers, if not really wearing the breeches of her husband, and should be tieated accordingly. "The letter of Mrs. Mary Barney, to the president of the United Slates, on the subject of the removal of her husband from Otlice, displays such an utter destitution of that modesty which it is desirable always to behold in women, that it is a disgrace to her sex; and yet it is so much in the style, and corresponds so completely with the taste of the coalitionists, that it is regarded by them as a delicious morsel, and is consequently copied and commented upon by all the editors of the party. Without possessing any knowledge of her other thao that which her letter abided , we ventured to epeak of her, a tew days sioce, as we conceived that

the letter warranted, anil concluded that she must be such a termagant as to render all about her unhappy. We have since heard an anecdote which shows the correctness of that conclusion. It is said that she and Mr. Barney some years since had a controversy on the subject of her goin to a ball, lie protested against it, and she insisted upon going. At length, in order to prevent the accomplishment of her purpose, he burnt some of her clothes, and to be revenged she, in turn, burnt some of his; he then burnt some more of hers, and she again burnt some more of hi?, until they had nearly burnt up each other's wardrobe. It pains us to speak thus cf a acy, but if a lady will, contrary to the dictates of prudence and modesty which becomes hei sex, thus thrust herself voluntarily into public notice, she must

expect that Ihe public will treat her as becomes hi r conduct. Mrs, Mary Barney, pretends to re gard it as a very serious ground of complaint against the President that he should presume to remove her husband from the oflke he held more, perhaps, on her account that) his ami this is in ferable from the fact of her speaking laigely aboyt tho importance of the ofli'-e in procuring a suppor for his family. lie had held the t Dke so long, thai lie cannot now well live without it, ami that is quite probable if he and his rib indulge their temper frequently , as in the case of the controversy ah ut the ball, lie had, moreover, according to her views, additional claims for a continuance in ( Dice, on the score of family connection?, and should have been retained fr their sake, if not for his own. Upon the same grounds, the longer he had been retained, the stronger would his claims have become; and when death deprived him, of the office, or the fiiee of him, it would have j been r.ecssary to have given the t iiice to his son or brother, or perhaps his tvije9 on account of his services, and those of his family, connections. And thus the tenure by which the otlhe would he held would not only become for lift , but hereditary also. Judges, it is well known, are appointed during good behaviour, and if they behave well, they continue for life; but may be removed by impeachment. If the reasoning of the coalitionists in relation to other offices were to prevail, the occupants would hold on to their stations more firmly than Judges themselves. Ttiey cannot hoi impeached, and as the power to remove thf m is denied to the president, they must, of necessity, continue to hold them while they do live;' and then, according to Mrs. Mary Barney, their relatives would possess strong claims for offices on account of I lie scrvicej they had rendered! Il" fuch reasoning be not downright balderdash, we certainly know uui what to call it. JVobility. That the friends of the late coalition are aristocrats in feeling and sentiment is evident from their remaiks on the subject of removals from and appointment to, t fiiee. Take the letter of Mrs. B irney, of which they so highly approve, as a ample. Soe contends that he is incapable of procuring a living for his family without an oflice. If the wife of a mechanic or a farmer were to make a similar complaint in favour ol her husband, it would perhaps be said to her in reply, that he must be an idle, worthless fellow, or that his family should seek a refuge in the poor house. She contends that he has been go long in cfuee that he ha:i acquired a right to be continued in it. Should a person in ordinary circumstances contend that he had so long enjoyed advantages from the public, to which he had originally no peculiar claim, that he had acquired a right to claim a continuance ol them, he would be laughed at for his folly, and be treated with contempt. She insists upon it that because Mr. Barney and heisclf are the children of distinguished citizens, ihey have a right to look for a support from the public by being retained in otlice, and because the President has thought otherwise, the phials of her mighty wrath are emptied on h-s head? This is the very essence of aiUtocracy. Look at the course of things under aristocratic governments. Who are those who are thought entitled to the cilices under the government? The sons ol noblemen. They must be provided for; and those of men in common circumstances must look for a living byfollow ing the occupation of their fathers, and it they fail to procure it by that means, they must starve or beg. In this country we have seen tco much of a disposition in certain men to establish a similar order of things among us. A certain individual becomes distinguished, and he neglects to place his sons in a situation to acquire a living by the same means which others employ, or those sons calculate upon acquiring office by means of the tame, or though the influence of their fathers. If they succeed, it j3 a wej ith them; but if they tail, they become idle drones in society, or pehaps, by the influence of their vicious example contaminate

the moral of a targe portion of the

community. Reader, lock around you, ana see how many young men are placed in circumstances peculiaily advantageous to them, for no other reason man mai their ancestors were men of distinction. And is it right? Have they any stron .. . ... r ..I ger claim on the public tor support man the sons of the farmer or mechanic i It they have, why do we cry out against the establishment of an older of nobili ty ? It is virtually making noblemen of them, and giving them advantages of an heredit:rv lille In nobilitV. If ----- - j w w - ' J Lord Wellington's sons were to succeed to his honors because he had won the battle of Waterloo, without making a duke of hitu,it would be immaterial to them whether he were made a Duke or rw. And if, Mr, Barney must be retained in office because of the fame of his father or his wife's father, and his children are to succeed to it because he had been so long retained, the bent-fit to him and them would be as great as if a title of nobility had been bestowed on his father, and the duties and the emoluments of the cilice had been connected with it. We have seen too much of a disposition to ape the manners ot aiistocratic government?, and to claim for the members oi certain families the privileges of nobility, to accord with the nature and design of our government; and it is time for the peo ple to consider to what the arguments of the coalitioni&ts are tending. lb. Washington, Pa. Juke 12. Uolcny oftheJluil. Circumsiances having iiaijiired a few day ago to induce the belief that the U. S. Mail had been robbed of a considerable amount of money somewhere between Wheeling and Pittsburg, Mi. Kichbaum, the postmaster at the latter place, Mr. Morgan, the post master here, and some other persons connected with the department, commenced their operations for detection. A letter had been mailed, one day of last week, by Marcus Wilson, merchant at Wheeling for Pittsburg, enclosing 1000 the moneyhad been taken out, and the envelope received at Pittsburg filled with waste paper, on which was certain scribbling which induced the suspicion that the robbery might have been committed at the Clay sville post oflice. Messrs Eichbaum and Morgan started for that place, where their suspicions were strengthened. Christian UVmeh, the post master at Clay sville, had gone to Wheeling on business connected with Wi mercantile establishment at the former place, and they followed him ar, examination of him took placc3 at Wheeling, and they found upon his person the identical thousand dollais enclosed by Mr. Wilson in the lettei. Weirich was (oiihwith secured and lodged in jail ai Wheeling, from whence he will in due time he taken tw Pinsbuig for trial in the United Slate? District Court. On examining ihe de.-k of Weirich at Claysville, oiher sums ol money have been found, which are supposed to have been stolen by him horn the mail. So far as these particulars go, we believe tjiey are substantially correct thould others iranspire our readejs will be advised of them. Separate from the above transaction of Weirich'sj which indeed is of so black a character that it seem to present scarcely a redeeming quality, we have never heard aught alleged by those who have had dealings with him, against his honesty. He is probably worth from teu to fifteen thousand dollars may be said to be out cf debt and was driving a very extensive and profitable mercantile business ai Claysville until the very moment of his detection. He was charitable, accommodating and liberal. lie h is extensive and respectable family connexions in various parts of the gtate has several small children without a mother, and we regret to fcay, they had better have been without a father also, as one upon whom rests such uumitigating guilt.

He has now gone to Whitehall to redeem an appointment which he made ten years ago. We are iuforntd that he delivered a discourse, at Pleasant Valley last Monday, the peroialion of which was as follows: ''Friends, I've preached in town and in country, in village and in city ,on water and on land, in America and in Europe, I've preached to Presidents, King-, Tyrant und Despots, and their slaves, menial and mendicants I've preached to Geo.

Devastation ty valer. On Mor.cl ay night 17th inst. the stream which runs through the village of Branchville, FT. J. having become much swollen by rains, bioke away the mill dam of John Bell, at the upper end of the village, and an immense column of w ater about 25 feet in depth, was precipitated into the stream below, carrying de solation in its course, and causing one death. The first building below was the forge Mr. Bell, which was removed a few feet from its foundation, and every thing within it carried away. The

mill dams of S. Price were swept away; one wall of the woolen factory was thrown down, and the building and machinery otherwise it jured. Several dwelling hoiues were inunda ted. Many escaped into their upper apartments and there awaited, in aw (ul suspense, that death which at every moment appeared inevitable. Tho house of Mr. Mackerly was entirely swept away; the place where it stood cannot now be accurately pointed out. Mrs. Mackerly was unfortunately drowned. The injury done to various descriptions of property in the village is very considerable: most of the gardens are ruined ; the turnpike road and two stona bridges washed entirely away; in short, the whole village, which a few short houia before wore a cheerful and rural appearance, now presents a scene of desolation and ruin. izvrenccburg JUarket Beef lb. 3 to 1; butler lb. 8 to 12; bacon, hams lb.
