From the Ohio State Bulletin. From the following ankle taken from the Baltimore Republican, it would seem that Mrs. Lane's letter to Mrs. Baruey, is very popular in that sec

tion. MRS. LANE'S LETTER. Such has Deen ihe demand for this admirable production, that our supply, omule as it was. has been xuauaieu. Several hundred extra numbers of out paper which contained it, were almost instantly applied for. 0. Monday, we orinted it in the form of a handbill in . i. : u the number ol 3000 copies, wmcu oas disnosed of. Before ten o'clock on the morning of that day , five hundred cooies were purchased at in cffi e, mostly in single numbers or small quantities. The demand has increased eo much, that we have determined upon issuing another large edition, which will be ready for delivery this morning at ten o'clock. XNDIANA COLLEGE AND MR. CLAY. We were ln!e) much surprise!, and have: heard expressions of disgust from gentlemen of both parties, at the fulsome card which ostensibly emanated fromfour of the students of the Indiana College, at Bloomington, inviting Mr. Clay to attend the approaching Commencement of the Collegr. I will be remembered that this Coih g is a S at--Institution, and tha' it ha- met much opposition from the chaige of illiix ral manage rtent, and the inculcation l s" e'.iriau religious te?.'!. Th Hn. D. H. M Xell, who U President ol the Board of Trustee, had much difficult), in hi pface, as S 'ltator, last winier, i' the Legislature, to remove this heav) imputation. The character of its ne-v Jy appointed President, Dr. Wylie, operated as a quietus to the frars of many gentlemen. VVare now disappointed hat the Cjlfcgf, or its directory, 6hould afford grounds for another charge of serious magnitude the charge of political partyism. The prudence of Mr. Clay, le this instance, is commendable, in rejecting such an invitation from such a souirce; but tbe 7v ire-workers in this business may have to 'endT a severe account for their iniquitous intent to seize the College of the Slate as a theatre for the enactment of their partizan schemes. bid Democrat. x THE LOST MAIL. The Posi Mister in Cincinnati on learning that a mail going east by ChiJlicolhe was lost between VV illiatnsburgh and Hillsborough, immediately started on that line for the purpose -of ascrrtaining the facts. They aire as follows: A1 three o'clock un Thursday morning, O t. 14 h, the mail ( Williamsburg.; the si tgt full of pa fsengers; the boot in front ol the stag c .otaind two trunks, and the mail bags on top! It is supposed that the mail wab thrown out of the boot before day, in passing over a causeway about six miles beyond Wilhamsburgh, and the di'tver proceeded six miles further before he discovered the loss. H'j immediately returned on the road, but did not find the mail, as in the mean time H bad been carried into the woods about one hundred yards from the road, Uhere it was found on the following Sa.urday, wit' the strap cut, the contents implied, and several letters mutilated. On examination, it did not appear that any thing had been taken from the mail. We hope this will be a h?sson to contractors and drivers and cause them in future to make the safety of the mail the first object.' jYat. Republican. GENERAL LAFAYETTE. The Editors of the Intelligencer have been favored with ihe following translation of a letter from this venerable patriot, to his friend General Bernard of Waslniuion. The nobhs and distinguished; TtJ'Which he bore in therecent events in France, has iuvested his opinions, and every thing which concerns him, with fresh interest ; we therefore publish every thing fi m him with increased pleasure, as it is received by cur readers with eagernes?. Bait. Gazette. Paris, Aug. 17, 1830. How much I should wish to be with you. my dear General, to rejoice to gether in the result of this last glorious and virtuous Revolution. The People alone have achieved the whole; ihey have shown themselves as great in the yictory, as dating and intrepid during the sti uggle. liodies of couraceou Ktichaaics led by ycuu- gtudecOj aiiJ j

chiefly by pupils of the Polytechmique School, who were far more admirable

than I could express. Our lossee, du ring these three bloody days, have been ureal: those of our adversaries have been considerable. Mo sooner was a regiment engaged in the streets to car ryoll 'he barricades, than new ones were thrown un in their rear. 1 he attacks on the Louvre. Tuilleries, and i r Hotel de Ville, were made with inciedible valor. Lvasseur was severely wounded, but we shall save him. J was, on the morning of the ihird da), established in the Hotel de v ille, which had been taken and re-taken; and the tri-colored flag was waving over ouz heads. The King having halted at Rambouillet with ten or twelve thousand men, I ordered from fifteen to twenty thou vand Parisians to march against him: the enemy retreated. Afterwards, the Count d'Artois and family reached the port of embarkation, under the escort of our commissaries, without receiving the least insult during their journey through the French territory. The National Guaid is organizing throughout France. The King we have elected is patriotic and popular. I would not say, as has been report- d, that this is the best of Republics, but I d. say that it is a very REPUBLICAN MONARCHY, susceptible of improvement Adieu, my dear General. I love you and embrace you with ail my heart. LAFAYETTE. LETTER FiiOM JOSLPII t;ONT V Mi I R, To an officer formerly serving in the republican ami .mperial armies in France. Point Breeze, (N. J.) 14i. Sepu 1830. Sir I received the leiK r by which you ffer to accompany me to Euiope, should circumstances call me "here. Duty alone can induce me to quii thi? untrv. My device, like thai of my brother Napoleon, is all for the French people. I, therefore, do not consider myself bound by any thing but duty towards ihe nation. I have no right to exercise, either my own name or that of my nephew. Government is a want of the people; to be created or destroyed by them according toils usefulness And I am resigned to conform to the national will, lawfully expressed. You know that three millions five hundred thousand suffrages called my family to the empire, at a lime when foreigners had no intiuence in Fiance. You may well suppose that I cannot, without pusillanimity, fail to recollect, that my nephew, ,the son of my brother, was proclaimed by the deputies in 1815; that my brother the emperor,abditated on that condition alone; that nothing but foreign bayonets, on two occasions, restored the Bourbons and produced the execution of so many illustrious defenders of their country. I should have set off already, if I did not see among the national names of the members of the provisional government, that of a prince with which mine never can have any thing in common, being salMied that any Bourbon, whatever may be the branch to which he belongs, cannot suit my country. I have ofien told you that the only family in France, which the nation will not choose and cannot like, is that of the Bourbons. If that family loved Frauce and was aware of the eternal divorce between them, it would have long ago renounced the throne. That divorce had been sealed by blood enough, both French and foreign, during the twentyfive years, without any necessity of exposing the family to be the cause of shedding the blood of the cilizens of Paris, under the mercenary steel of Swiss. The great trial of the revolution is not yet determined. The emperor Napoleon thought that blood enough had been spill in the interior of France and wished to close every wound. He threw the country open to all those whom he deemed as tired of civil war as he was; adjourning the complete freedom of the nation till a general peace, when he should no longer need immense dictatorial power, with which to make head against the united forces of Europe, incessantly excited by the revalry of England, and the oligarchy of its ministry . He wished to put an end to the revolution, and offered himself as mediator in France, as moderator in Europe. England constrained him by the wars s-he perpetually raised, to those conquests which she denounced as excesses, though she alone was answerable tor them; and concluded by crushing in France ail tbs fruits cf thirty years of

i heroism and victor), by imposing the family of the good old times on a regen-

crated nation. A long as there is any question in France of a branch of that family, I will stay where I am. My family never desired civil war, and does not now. Should the nation declare for a republic, you know my sentiments. They are of long standing. H ippy the people among whom I might make this application without danger. Y -u reinmber what I often said to the. Span iards 'You will never have as much liberty as I should like to give you: But you musl be able to bear n; time is a necessary element in every thing.' Assurances are given that our youth have made great progress towards re. publican opinions. Doubtless goveriinent is a remedy for an evil. Happy he country wise enough to do without it. We perceive scarcely any traces of il in the happy country where we have so long resided. But is that a state suitable to France ? It is nol the irritation caused by the absurd pretensions of the government that has weighed it down for fifteen years, which has roused that generous youth beyond perhaps what suit the rest of their fellow-iih-zmis at present, and the tranquility of France and Europe? A third hy pothesis remains; that of my being called upon by honor, by duty, by what I we to Fiance emancipated, and to Napoleon the second, to the son of a bi other, ivhotn I ought io love and respect more than any oil er person whatever, because I knew him from infancy better than any one else, and I am sure of the sincerity of his leeiings and opinions. Wheu dying on the rock of St. Helena, he charged me through gen. Borland's pen, to let his som govern himself by my advice; never, above all, to let him forget that he is a Frenchman; to let him give France as much liberty a his father gave her equality; and let him adopt for hit device, all for the French people. 1 have positive assurances that Na poleon the second, in spile of fortune, is as good a Frerchman as you or 1, and will be worthy of his fattier and of France. I am your affectionate JOSEPH KA.POLKO HONAPAKTE, Count of Sunilliers.) Arrival of the French Ex-Jlinisters at Vincennes The Government was aware that the four arrested Ex Ministers would arrive last night al Vincennes. A piquit of Horse Na'ional Guard proceeded at 1 o'clock in the morning towards Mont Roughs, where an Officer of the Staffof the Fortres was waiting for ihe carriage which conveyed the prisoners. A 3 o'clock the coach appeared. The detachment of Parisian cavalry surrounded it, and escorted to Vincennes M. Peyronnet, Guernon Ranville, and Chamelauzpt The last was in front of the diligence, with one of the Tours National Guard on each side of him; Pey ronnet w as inside with fivef N ttienal Guards; Guernon Ranv lle sat in a back diligence, also well guarded. M. d Polignac arrived about 7 o'clock in a private carriage, under the escort of an officer of the Staff. The Procureur General and the King's Attorney were waiting for the accused at Vincennes, and examined them in the apartment which had been prepared far them. M. Chantelauza and Guernon Ranville appeared downcast. M. Ranville, it is said, persists in denying that he is the late Minister, and not to answer to the name of De Ranville. M. Peyronnet puts a bold face on the business, as also does M. de Polignac. There is no doubt that the trial of the whole will 60on commence. Any at tempt to escape would be useless they are guarded by the brave Dumesnil. M. Nanet, Aid-de-Camp to the Minister at War, and Foy, the late General's nephew, and Aid-de-Camp to General Lafayette, carried to Tours the order for their removal. They left Tours at half past 2 o'clock in the morning of the 25th. They travelled without alighting, and had their meal in the diligence. Peyronnet and Guernon Ranville would take nothing during the journey. The former was calm, the latter surly . M. Cbantelauze was 6ad and 6ulky. These three, being placed separately, bad no opportunity for communication, and did not see each other until they were set down at Vincennes, where they arrived, a has been 6tated at 4 o'clock in the morning. The journey was performed tranquilly, except at Chartres, where the diligence was surrounded by 700 or 800 people, who whished to make the prisoners stop, acd

in particular, M. Peyronnet, that they might have a sight of him. The crowd was soon quieted, and the diligence proceeded. Oo arriving at Vinceunes, the prisoners were first put into separate chambers in the third story of that part ot the Castle which looks to the Polygon: but about 5 in the evening they were removed, and distributed in the 4 tours of the Donjon. The doors of each of their apartments communicate with a large central hall, which is prepared for the reception of the Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, when they shall come to examine the prisoners. M. eJe Pohgnac having asked to be allowed to occupy the chamber of the D uijon, in which he was confined in 1 802, after the affiir of the infernal machine, his re;jiiei was granted. Th National Guard ol Paris formed a double row through which the pris oners, passed. During their move mont, M. de Polignac bowed his head in passing the troops, holding his hat in his hand ; M. de Peyronnet kept his hat drawn down on his head and passed through the ranks with an easy air. The garrison of Vincennes consists of th 531 of the line, and a regiment of horse artillery , all animated wiih the best spirits, and fraternising with the Pari? National Guard, assembled at Vincennes, to the number of 12000 men. G-n. Dumesnil who commands ihe garrison, has g'ven orders that the prisoners should be treated with the greatest humanity consistent with their situation.

A B.tih (English) paper mentions the lollowing important invention, which we hope soon to see introduced iuto this country, where, perhaps,there is a greater field open for the discovery than any other part of the world. Mr. G. V. Palmer, of Worcester, has taken out a patent for a machine in perfecting which he haa been engaged for the last teu years. Il works by steam, and is particularly adapted for cutting canals, levelling hills for rail ways, or removing large masses of earth. The engine cuts, at a single movement, six teet wide and three feet deep, delivering into a cart upwards of a ton per minute. It is calcu lated that 350 yards of hard soil, or 720 of soft soil, may be thus removed m twelve hours. The machine also cuts and sifts gravel with like rapidity. It may be expected that the introduction of this machine will give a stimulus to the road improvements and other wciks. Kuapp, one of the persons concerned in the murder of Mr. While, at Salem, was hung on the 23th ult. It is said that 8 or 10,000 persons assembled to witness the spectacle.

Respect to the President of the United States. Yesterday at about two o'clock, ttie cteigy in this city, wiih scarcely an exception, waited upoa the president ot the United States, and coi gratulated him upon his return to ihe seat of government. Protestantg and Catholics, Episcopalians, Methodists, Baptists and Presbyterians all united in ono common sentiment of respect tothechief magistrate, who received and treated them in a manner alike becoming the dignity of his station, and of the character, deportment and elevated feelings of those whose valuable services and exemplary lives, command our respect, and constitute them the standard of piety and good morals; thrj guardians of our present and future welfare. The fact which we have mentioned that all denominations united in this mark cf respect, is at once a merited and severe rebuke, upon that uncharita. ble and bitter opposition, which seeks to discolor all the acts and motives that endear the president to all who knov his public worth and private virtues; and affords a favorable commentary on, our free institutions, which by their mutual guarantee of the right of conscience, teach ail sects the power which protects others in the free enjoyment oi their religious and civil liberties, as a Safeguard to their own. U. S. Telegraph, Oct. 6. Dangerous P!ayjellcu One of tha ratile snakes kepi at the Nt w Et glnd Museum, on Thursday last, took un Drage at the over familiarity of the keeper, Mr. Dunlap, who had been btirring up the la.y rascals with a feather, to make them show fight and sound their drums, and watched his opportu nity when the tyrante's eyes were turned, to take his little finger between his teelh in a manner not very safe or gentle. In factthcmonstei's fangs touched the very bone. But after all it was not a very malicious snake. He only emitted a small quantity of poison, juit sufficient to trouble his friend a little, atd did uot act up to tbe precept cl
