O-VVe have been requested to announce Oliver H. Smith as a candidate to represent this district in the 22d congress. Mr. Smith will embrace early and suitable opportunities to present the public with his political opinions generally. JVew post office. A post office has been established at what has been known as M'Kinzie's cross roads, in this county, and Benjamin B. Bunham appointed postmaster. The oriice is called "AWso." The "Greensburgh Chronicle" printed in Decatur county in this state, has changed owners. Mr, Dow ling , late associate editor of the Western States man, has purchased the establishment J and has entered on the duties of his station, with a seeming determination to prosecute them with credit to himself and advantage to his readers. From our knowledge of the editor, we have no doubt but he will be able fully support his professions. The legislature of this state convened at Indianapolis on Monday last. From private letters we understand that the senate elected J-. H. Farnhm Secretary; A. VV. Morris assistant Secretary; W.J. Brown enrolling cleik; and O. Mree door keeper; In the house of representatives I. H k was elected, after three balloting, speaker; W. Sheets principal clt rk; A. S. White assistant clerk; J. Jackson enrolling clerk; and J. C. Re.ed door keeper. We have been favored by W. Arm strong esq. with the following statement of the balloting for speaker. 1st 2d Howk 26 2G Reed 20 23 Wallace 9 6 3d 30 25 The Louisville Advertiser,of Saturday last, says: "The water was eight feet deep last evening io the Canah 0ing to the mud left in the lower lock, and other causes it will be impracticable to pass boats through it for some days, it not for some week-, to com?." The Message. By the polite attention of the editor of the Indiana Democratize; have been favored with a slip containing a portion of gov. Ray's message to both houses of assembly. It "will be seen thai his excellency has no idea of being cramped in the Utile state of Indiana, but in one or two gigantic strides leaps into Europe and travels over the continent; He then graciously condescends to revisit theU. State, and landing in Georgia spends some time among the"nullifiers " threatening them with fclwar,pestilence and famine," if they once offer to oppose Uncle Sam's mandates. After he has settled matters here, he trudges back to see his constituents, and immediately commences building school houses and factories: the one to teach the young shoots the principles of "representative government," and the other to form fabrics of corn-husks and hogs' bristles to encourage agriculture and the mechanic arts. VVe are sorry the editor of the Democrat did not send us a more copious extract, that our readers might not be left a week in doubt about the object of his excellency's visit to the old world; and what measures he intends to recommend to the legislature, in regard to the unsettled state of the Netherlands, Russia, Prussia, Spain, Portugal, &c. We hope they will be of such a pacific character as only to require the force of argument to support them as we are mortally opposed to fighting with fire arms. But after all we are glad we have got a little of the message for this paper, as by having an early start we shall be able to get through with it before the session closes. We understand that it will make 70 or 80 pages in pamphlet, or about 30 columns of our paper. Jlccident. On the evening of the 26th Nov. last, a flat boat loaded with flour, corn meal and oats, belonging to Messrs. Stockman and Covill of this place, was discovered to be sinking. By the spirited exertions of our citizens, in a very short time, she was unloaded and freed of water. The owners had previously made an engagement to have the property insured at the ortice of the Protection Insurance Company, but at the time the accident took place, the policy of insu-

rahce, although made out, had not been delivered, but was yet in the hands of the company's agent at this place; and it was by many doubted whether the company would be answerable tor this loss. v On reference of the question to the company we understand that they have promptly directed their agent at this place to adjust the loss, considering the contrast as binding upon them, notwithstanding the non-delivery of the policy. The loss is not great, as we understand, being about 200; but would have been a considerable, drawback on (he profits of the voage of our enterprising fellow citizens, and we are much pleased that they are not to sustain it.

Miehigan Road Lands. In our last we promised the biter of the late secretary of war to gov, Ry, on the subject of the Michigan road lands. Tins teller we now give, and invite for it an attentive x-h mi nation. It seems to us very plain that when Mr. Bnrboursays that "the land ceded by the late treaty with the Potawatamies wa9 obtained by the United States for the use of Indiana," he did not mean those included in the 1st article, but had reference to those granted in the 2d. To argue a diff rent construction would givv Indiana all the lands ceded by the P-wu-tamit s to the United S ates in 1826 an extent of grant cenainly n- vei in tended to b- givn. Department of JVar, jMarch 1, 1530. To His Excellency J Brown Kay, Governor of Indiana. Sir I hav had l tie honor of receiv ing your letter of the 4th ultimo, and proceed to reply to it. The land ceded by the late treaty with the Potawa'amies, was obtained by the United States lor the use and benefit of Indiana. Tlte manner ol taking possession of tlv land, as ceded, will be by surve s. Sauld good land lie immediately along the route of the survey, the quantity granted by the treaty will be laid ft along said route; but if not, contiguous thereto. The lodian agr nt will be required to attend the surveys and it might promote a haimoniou- issue to them, were you to ask the agent to invite two or three of thv principal chiefs lo attend with him; Their assent , as to the point of termination of the proposed road, and where it is to strike the Ooio, it would be well to erure; which would guard against any difficulties that might afterwards aris upon that and the other point respecting the locations of the sections, N part of the cost of the surveys or of any incidental expense attending it will be borne by the United States. The obligations of the General Government ceased, when the right of the land, for Indiana, was secured; The state 19 the sole trustee over these ceded lands, but the question of expediency, as to the h-ngih of the road, and which relates also to the point where it may strike the Ohio,- ran only be adjusted in the way proposed; It is proper the Indians should agree with you as to where that point ought to be; also as to the location of the sections along the route which may be marked in the survey for the road. You will notify the department when you are prepared to commence the survey, that instructions may be given to the agent. I have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant.

VV notice this paragraph iu the London M rning Chronicle, of recent due; fc,The gentlemen and farmers ol Kent are in the greatest consternation on account ot the organized system of conflagration, from which so many of them have suffered. The insurgents g.i about in bands of one hundred and finy, and coolly demand the keys of the barns lo destroy the threshing machines, and the idea of resistance is out of thp question. Indeed, when gentlemen have applied to their servants to assist them in repelling the alta k, they have met with a tlt refusal. Tne signals are given by sky rockets, and as many as fourteen stack yards have been in flames at the same time. There has long been a sullen discontent among the peasantry of England. We have often raised our voice in their hehalibut in vain. The gentry have not done their duty towards them. The laborers feel that the higher ranks are looking on with their arms folded, while they are sinking to the level of wretchedness. It is deeply to be lamented that they should have recourse lo lawless outrage, but when did ever persons in their situation reason correctly wits respect either to the cause of their sut fcrings or the proper remedy ? The

disturbances in Kent are a warning that ought not to be disregarded. What adds to the alarm of fanners, is the refusal of the insurance c rlices to insure them, except on the most ruinous teims." At a petty sessions at Blackwater, on the 17th instant, Wm. Stanley and James Gillam were fi.ifd 5. each for

A singular and horrible instance- ol rehge us madness lately occurred ai Bodmin, Pa. Two brothers, (sriys the account,) were accustomed to attend the in eiings ol the B')onitcs and Ranters, whose erroneous and ina tional dnctrin- txiu-d their minds to phrensy. One d them, bung in bed, awoke his bed-lellowj and greatl) alarmed him by saying he had plucked out his right eye and cast it fn.m him, a d hai he was now prepared for heaven. A light being brought, the ee, compleirlv forced out ot its sockt t, was found on the bed! The "other at tempted o cut ot! his arm with a hat chei; they are both conuned in the Lunatic Asylum. The passage of scripture, on the misinterpretation of which, these wretches proceeded to maim themselves m this cruel manner, is well known; and the circumstance is an impressive memeuto to them who presumptuously attempt to explain the j Bible to others, when they have not the knowledge or abilities to understand it themselves. The Duke of Brunswick, lately deposed by bis peopl app ars to have excelled our post-master Weirich, in the range of his depredations. He examined the letters in the post-, flice at will, and took from them whatsoever he wished mong other articles, he stole a valuable gold chain Irom a letter, which he gave to one of his strum pets, who wore it publicly, knowing that it was stnlen the duke having a "divine right" to be a rascal? We onl) regret that this ape of royalty escaped a just punishment for his tT-nees. Treaty with Turkey.

He brings with him an important comtiV rcial treaty negotiated ny him at Con stantinople with the sublime porte, which is said to he highly favorable to this country. This is the fust treaty ever r.egociated between the two gov ernments. Mr. R. speaks in the highest terms of the treatment he received from ihat government, and the friendly disposition manifested towards this country. Mr. R. brought out with htm four elugnt Arabian horses which he obtained at Coi.SLaolinople,

The whole number of cases of small pox which have been received into the H 'spital erected specially for the nception of patients affected with tha disease, has been, we understand on good authority, fifty-six out of which about 15 have died. Including those taken to the Hospital, there have been about 60 cases of small pox withiu three months in this city. Some of these were varioloid. From what we have heard, we suppose that 6 or 8 were cases of this Tiodified type of the disease, none of wheh have proved mortal. The disease is on the decline, but few cases having occurred within the last week. Louisville Focus.

Pitcarns Island. The Asiatic Journal for October mentions the death ot John Adams, governor of Pi team's Island. 11 was the last of the mutineers of the English snip Buntt, ana had resided oa the Island 40 years. His character appears to havr undergone a remaikable change during the early part of his residence there, since which time he is represented to have been a pattern of all the virtues which adorn societ). Under his influence, the colony long since assumed a character o( oidei, morality, and even piety, which has astonished every one . 1 . . . , .

At the same time, a 4 .u:,.. u.. .i. -rr,i::u negro man named Carey, was hung for breaking into a kitchen, or outhouse, whre no one slept, and robbing it of articles worth, perhnps, five dollars. A cording to this taiiffof legal penalties, the life of an individual is worth 5ddlars; and in the moral code, stealing a flitch or two of bacon is as heinous a crime as the foulest murder. The reader will understand, nf course, that there is no penitentiary in the State of; North Carolina. Russia. A report of a general in?urre lion of the U-ikaine, Esthonia, Rod j Russia, Poland, and a part of Livonia, was the general topic of conversation last night in many political circles.
