liaTrrcnccbnrsli, July 1).

We learn verbally that Gen. M'Carty was at Greensburgh, Decatur county, on the 4th, where be delivered an address. Reports speak fhtteringly of his speech, end of his prospects in that part of the district. The Statesman informs that Genera! Noah Noble, candidate for governor, will attend in this county, and address the people at the following places, viz:

At Major's old stand, in Logan, 13th,

inst.; at this place 14th, 1 o'clock; at Aurora, Fame day, 3 o'clock; at Wil-

mington 15'h, 11 o'clock: Manchester, game day, 4 o'clock; at Hartford I8lh,

11 o'clock; and at Riiing San, same day, 4 o'clock.

Mad Dogs. A dog supposed to be

affected wilfi the rabid disease was killed in one of our streets a few days since. Several others have been killed on suspicion. It would be well for the owners of dogs to keep an eye to them at this season, and on the first appearance of disease destroy them.

It will be seen, by a letter published to-day, that Mr. Lane has declined standing a poll for lieul. governor. The contest for that office now remains between Messrs. Gregory, Wallace and Smiley. On the upper Wabash, where there is much interest in the canal, Col. Wallace, we learn, calculates on a large vote, because of his supposed friendship to that work. Here, in the cost, the Colonel is not understood to be more friendly to it, than the other candidates. Mr. Smiley goes as far for it as any one here is willing to go. The proceeds of thelands given by the government Mr. S. thinks should be promptly npplied to making the canal, but be is not in favor of pledging the faith of the state to borrow money to complete it. He would go all reasonable lengths to procure an additional grant of land from the government, but does not consider the canal of such great importance as to warrant a state debt, payable in taxes from the pockets of ihe people, not at all or very

rpmotelv interested in the work. If

Col. Wallace is in favor of taxing a large portion of the state, for the benefit of a very small district on the line of the canal, it is high time the voters should know it, by a plain and explicit

avowal. Therejshould be no ehuffiing,

no holding out of false colours in this matter

For the week past the weather has

been unfavorable for securing the ripening harvest, and we fear, to a certain extent, destructive to it. On Tuesday morning last a most violent rain storm commenced, which continued with unabated fury for about 24 hours. Whole fields of grain were flattened to the earth, and much of the oats crop

has been destroyed. The Ohio river in one night rose about 10 feet, and continued to 6well until Thursday, when it began to subside. A few inches more water would have done immense damage to the corn in this vicinity as much cf the big bottom land is below the surface level at the river's bank.

sought means io'erndeitjo the injury

of our blacksmiths, by importing reaoy

made horse shoes and nails, which pay

nodutv. He next spoke of the impor

tation of ready made clothing, and Irish whiskey, to the injury of our mechanics

and farmers. He said he wasintavor

of extending equal privileges to all classes in society, and did not consider a law which protected the manufacturer, and neglected the mechanic and farmer, too sacred to be altered or amended. He spoke of the duty on sh1(, 8z on articles of prime necessity to the poor, and expressed himself in favor of n reduction. He passed to the distribution of the surplus revenue spoke of what Indiana had received, and what she would receive under the system of distribution according to population, or some other equitable mode.

In short, he reviewed his circular, and we believe, explained satisfactorily

to those present, every subject present ed in it.

The whole Fpeech, taken together,

was- well delivered and happily cot-

rp'ive.d. The impressions lelt on the

minds of those present, were as favor able to the Judge as could be desired.

He left here about 2 o'clock, and on

his way to Versailles, delivered anoth-

er address at Wilmington, i hose no

heard him there, speak of it in the most

flattering terms.

Mr. Smiley followed the Judge, both

here and at Wilmington, in a short ad dress. He is no orator, and little gift

ed with the powers to pleaee on the

stumn. His strength lies in a sound

r - "

discriminating judgment, honesty, in

tegnty and a perlect acquaintance

with the duties of the station to which he aspires; and on these he must (as indeed every candidate ought) rely for

support to office.

We give place to-day to an angry correspondence between ex secretaries Eaton and Ingham, originating in a piivate affair in their families. The whole concern is foolishness in the extreme, and of no moment to the public; but in as much as the correspondence will find its way into every Clay paper, accompanied with remarks intended to affect the administration, we have so far surrendered our opinion, as to the propriety of such publications, as to give the letters to our readers. Any omis

sion, connected with the affair, will be

supplied hereafter. W ith the dispute between the two principals, it will be observed the president has no concern. They are both private citizens, unconnected with the government, and not amenable to it for their conduct. We have every reason to believe that on investigation all who have had any agency in the affair, as charged in Mr. Ingham's letter, will be promptly dismissed from office by the president.

Judge James G. Read, candidate for governor, accompanied by Boss Smiley, esq. candidate for lieutenant governor, arrived in this place on Sunday last, from the north. Oa Monday, agreeably to appointment, Judgo Read addressed a large concourse of citizens in

the market house, and in a. strain of

vtrong unsophisticated argument, held

captive the attention of his auditory for

about one hour. He examined freely

the tariff law of 1823, and pointed out

wherein he did not believe it "judi

cious. In many instances, he conten

ded, it failed to protect the farmer and

mechanic from foreign competition. The manufacturer of iron was protected by a high du;y, but foreigu ingenuity had

Fourth of July. Agreeably to previous arrangements, the signers to the public dinner repaired to Mr. Fitch's hotel, and at about 3 o'clock p. m. sat down to a splendid & bountiful repast,

served up in Mr. F's dining room. Alter partaking of the rich bounties spread before them, the members of the company retired to a bowery erected in the rear of the building, where a table wa3 prepared, and furnished with wine and other liquors. Capt. Tho's Porter took hi3 seat as the president of the day; and Hon. John Test, being called upon for the purpose, after some prefatory and appropriate remarks, read the declaration of independence. The president then proceeded to read the toasts prepared and handed in for the occasion. We have been favored with copies of the following: viz: 1, The President of the U. States. 3 cheer s. 2.

Arrnn'm- to nroroise we iriva below the

"lucid" reply of Mr. Greg-q: to .? T oter cf lianjolphjozvnslnp: The tremarks of Voter seem to have had their full force, and not a little disconcerted our neighbor of the Statesman . To divert public attention, he wishes to hold out the idea that our correspondent is not a friend of 'Squire Stewart, nor a Clay man. We can safely assert he is both, and that should he deem it necessary to "rend the veil of obscurity which envelopes him." and stand forth in open defence, Mr. G. will find it difficult to "impale him on high as a base calumniator," or even convince the public that he is below Mr. G's. best conceptions of himself. Mr. G. says he demanded the real name of our correspondent, and in the article below renews the call We cannot discover on what

principle Mr. G. grounds Ins claim to the name of the author; certainly not on &ny rule of his office. It cannot, we think, so soon have ; escaped his memory that when V. Armstrong esq. was assailed in a most unbecoming manner through the Statesman, by fictitious writers, and Mr. A. called for responsible names, Mr. Gregg replied, that if the charges made were false Mr. A. could easily disapprove them; but if true, he could see no right Mr. A. had to demand the authors. We do not pretend to quote Mr. G's words literally, but merely give their substance. With these remarks we leave Mr. G. in the hands of Voter, who, we hope, will deal mercifully with him. P. S. The plot thickens. Since the above

was written we nave rctcucu nuuici mmum nication from liandolph, in which Mr. Gregg is called on to publish certain letters. The srti-

cle may be seen in another counm.

Wo copy the foregoing communica

tion from the last number of the Palladium; and we do it for the purpose of inciting a fair, open, and candid investigation of the matters contained therein. If the charges prefered against us, by "A Voter in Randolph," be true, we certainly deserve the serverest reprehension at the hands of Esq. Stewart and his friend:; if otherwise, we claim an honorable discharge by the complainant in the case,&. a triumphant vindication by our compeers. Since the appearance of the aiticle in the Palladium, we have endeavored to trace it to the fountain head, that we might convince the writer (if he wa3 really a friend to Esq. Stewart,) that he was laboring under a very great error in the premises he had assumed, nnd that we might, if possible, effect a reconciliation without the intervention of a news

paper controversy. For this purpose, we called upon Mr. Culley for the author, and was refused ; and for this purpose, we visited Randolph township, with like success. The step has been

taken without the knowledge or approbation of the 'Squire, and his perianal and political friends are all lost in conjecture as to it3 probable source, and they are 6trongly impressed with the belief that the writer is not what he professes to be. We now call upon Mr. Culley, cgain,io give up a responsible name; and we challenge the writer, himself, to rend the veil cf obscurity which envelopes him, and stand forth in the vindication of his charges, or suffer himself to bo impaled on high as a base calumniator. We are willing that our conduct in this alFair, a3 in all others, shall undergo the strictest scrutiny ; and to prevent evasive and irrelevant

pleadings, on the part ot our antagonist j we now makeup the issue in the following concise and lucid manner: 1st. That so far from our taking an .active part in forming what is called the anti-caucus ticket, we have not written or spoken to but one individual, requesting him to Ivcome a candidate for the Legislature, and that individual declined ; nor have we attendo J any meeting whatever, public or private, where the question was agitated.

2J. That wc were July authorized o announce Doct. Haines, as a can

didate for the Legislature, beforo the

name of Esq. Stewart was received at

he ohice. 3d. That a citizen of Rising Sun,

(referred to by UA Votei'-'suggested'

Esq. Stewart as a candidate, only on certain conditions, which conditions

were not fulfilled.

4th That we deferred the annuncia

tion of Doct. Haines for 10 days, with

out being authorized to do so, to atlord

the citizens of Rising Sun an opportunity to decide between them, understanding it as their wish to run but one. 5th. That we were never authorized to announce E;q. Stewart as a candidate, until authorized by himself, in the town of Rising Sun, and that his name appeared in the next succeeding

number being only one week after the Doctor's appeared. Gth. That a false construction has been placed upon our remarks accom panying his annunciation. 7th. That our whole course in thU affair was perfectly correct and that the matter has been explained to the satisfaction of the 'Squire and his fiiends.

Gth. That we will prove ourself, by our acts, a better friend and more efficient supporter of the 'Squire, at the coming election, than he who has so unjustly and falsely assailed us.

9lh. That the writer is either labor ing under a total misapprehension of the facts; or else he is a secret enemy of Esq. Stewart, and epen enemy of ours, and moreover, destitute of moral principle. Oa the foregoing points we throw down the glove will Mr. Culley or his Cny-correspondent dare to take it up. CrWill Mr. Culley have the goodness to give the foregoing remarks a

place in his paper ol to morrow i
