Lairrcx2CcIiiirgIi9 JTiifiy 1G. 0O"Tli Statesman of yesterday, anpounces Robert VVilber, as a candidate fir county Commissioner, in the 1st district. 07" We are rmnr-ofed to insert the name of John Jexk i s, for the same office, in the 1st district. The request (o announce Mr. Jen!;ins, rtnme too late for our last paper. 07" We are authorized to Fay that Andrew Morgan will serve a3 Coroner, if elected. The want of room to day prerents the insertion of a number of advertisement?, and other things they will be attended to, hereafter. Our readers roust excuse every thing amiss until after the 1st of August. We learn from the Richmond Palladium, that Joseph Molmnn, esq. has declined running for congress in this district. Mr. Greg, in his paper of the 3th, gave it as his "opinion" that Mr. Test would beat Mr. Smith for congress. Since Mr. Holman declined, Mr. Gregg says , "It is understood that this movement, on his part, will result much to the benefit of Air. Smith, as he has gone over to him, with all the force he can command. This may make a very material change in the aspect of affairs. We shall calmly await the issue h abide the resu't ; Thus it would seem that Mr. Gregg 1 has no "omiiW between Mr. Smith and Mr. Test, but like a good christian is resigned "calmly to await the issue;" which we predict will be that gen M'Carty will be cur next member tp congress The editor of the Statesman assails gen. Keen in a very rough manner, for omitting to insert Mr. Test's name in his list of candidates; but takes no notice of similar neglect in other editors of the district. We have taken gome notice and can safely say there is at least one Clay paper, which has omitted to insert the name9 of Read and M'Carly until a fexv days since. Then, why does Mr. Gregg make an invidious distinction? Would it not be well for him first to inspect the conduct of his political friends of the press, before he condemns others? We insert twoarliclcs to-day, on the subject of the public printing. The explanation of the Journal we do not consider altogether satisfactory to tha public. The job was loo heavy to be nil done at oneotiice in season, and the legislature, or those members who favored the present arrangement, cither misundersood their duty, or had little idea of the obligations it imposed. The ppecial acts and militia law should have been given with the journals; as it is, the whole must be delayed until after August. By letters lately received from differcnt parts of the district, we are led to helicve that geu. M'Carty will not only be elected but by a considerable majority. In Rush, Union and Fayette in the north, and Switzerland, Decatur and Dearborn in the south, it is confidently believed he will lead the other candidates considerably. From the other counties our information is not to dillnite. On Thursday last our town was visited by gen. M'Carty, candidate for congress, and gen. Noble, candidate j lor governor. About noon gen. ill Carty addressed a company in the market house, on the subject of the election and other matters connected with National politics. hi commencing his speech he said he labored under some disadvantages in attempting to follow the example of his competitors, who were both eminent lawyers, bred and nurtured in the school of eloquence, and neenstomed to public speaking. He was brought up a farmer, and in a contest where the qualifications of aspirants to ofiice were estimated by their efforts on tha stump, he was well aware of the advantage his opponents had over him. Hovever,he said he did not despair under the circumstances, hut should take the liberty of directing public attention to the pratice of stump speaking. He deprecated the principle, in as much as it gave the lawyer an undue advantage over the equally well informed mechanic and farmer. Let the practice, said he, be permanently fixed, that every aspirant for ofiice ni'ist mount the rostrum and harangue the multitude, and you place it in the power of the lawyer, the practiced declaimer, to hold and monopolize every important post in the government. Mr. M'Carty said every prominent ofiice in Indiana was held by lawyers; and this would continue to be the case, so long as the people recognized t lie capacity' to deliver a flowery address from the stand as the principal and necessary qualification for office. He wished the people to

think of these things, and how far the custom of the times may tend to raise up a privileged class in society, to the exclusion of the worthy and deserving of all others. Mr. M'Carty passed to the consideration of the tariff". He said he was in favor of a tariff for revenue and protection; but not of high or prohibatory duties. There were some articles, Mr. M. said, he thought ought to be permitted to come to us duty free. Congress had already reduced .the duties oncolfee, tea, salt, &c. and he thought when the public debt was paid, a farther deduction might be necessary. Mr. M. then spoke of the proposition to distribute the furplus revenue among the states according to population, as more just and equitable than the plan heretofore pursued. Indiana, he said, has been a state 15 years, during which time she has received nothing from the national treasury. True, an appropriation of land had been made lor making a canal from the Wabash to the lake; but this Mr. M. said he did not consider as a donation. It was given conditionally that the state should accomplish the work through the United States' lands, which would by this means be advanced in the ratio of about 100 per cent in value. Appropriations had also been made to the Cumberland road running through the state, but these, he said, were to be replaced from the 2 per cent fund set apart by a compact entered into with the state for making roads running to and through it, and could not properly be said to be a gift from the treasury, as the U. States' lands, as an offset were exempt from taxation by the stale previous to and for 5 years after sale. By the proposed plan of distribution, Indiana might safely calculate on receiving, after the payment of the public debt, from 2 to 500,000 yearly, to be applied, under the direction of the state authorities, to.woiks of internal improvement and education. Air. M. spoke of the presidential question said he had espoused the cause of the present worthy chief magistrate while his prospects of success were less fluttering than many others then before the people. lie spoke of this to show the utter falsity of the charge brought against him of trying to ride into office on other men's shoulders. Mr. M. said had he been disposed to raise on others popularity, it certainly would have been his policy lo have selected the then most popular candidate, and not by espousing the cause of the weakest, thwarted his object at the very threshold. Mr. M. said he had been objected to because he held an ofiice under the general government. When he consented to become a candidate, several land laws for the relief of the purchasers of public

lands were about to expire, and had he resigned then and shut up the ofiice, immense injury would have been done to many poor and industrious citizens. But waving this reason, said Air. M. he claimed equal indulgence with other candidates. Mr. J. Q. Adams held the secretary ship, with a salary of G000 per year until his inauguration: Mr. Henry Clay was in the receipt of 1G per day until the moment he was appointed secretary James B. Ray, while he holds the cilice of governor, is canvassing for a seat in congress. M. Stapp holds the ofiice of lieutenant governor and is a candidate for governor. Noah Noble is road commissioner and candidate also for governor. Mr. M'Carty said he did not think it fur to punish him for that which was passed unobserved in others. If elected it was plain he could not hold the land ofiice. We have thus given a hasty skpfch of some of Mr. M'Carty 's remarks. There are many things omitted which time nor room will not permit us to notice. Suffice it to say, he acquitted himself well, and increased the confidence of his friends in his talents and capacity to serve the district honorably and beneficially in congress. Gen. Noble addressed alarms number of persons in the evening. We heard him attentively, and for the most part are not disposed to find fault with his remarks. On the sub ect of disciplining the miliiia, his views are certainly good. On the tariff we ditler but little but on the subject of distributing ihe surplus revenue, widely. He is opposed to the plan proposed by the president, because the south will come in for a share on account of her black population. In arranging any eystem it is difficult nay impossible to obviate every objection. The only thing that can be done is by conciliation and concession by holding on to the essential and tsui rendering the minor for the public good. It was in this spirit our present excellent constitution was matured and adopted it was in this spirit that th suuih was allowed a representation in congress qn-;l to 3 5 hi of her black population. By the plan of distribution proposed, Indiana would unquestionably get more in one year, than she has in 15 years past. W ould it then, because thj south might

draw a little more than hr prcp3rtion for white population, be politic for us to reject a plan by which we would be so greatly benefitted? Mr. Noble spoke of Judge Read and of the manner he was brought out as a candidate for governor. A few U. S. (dlicers, paid Mr. N. nominated him, and by the act took upon themselves to dictate to the people. We think Mr. Noble did inj'j.-tice to Judge Read, in his reonaik.o. We are well advised that before Judge Read was taken up by Ihe Qieeting alluded to, he had authorized his friends to make use of his name for governor, and whatever was done afterwards was merely in furtherance of his withes. Tiom the St. Louis Reacon, June 30. The Indian, disturbance on the Upper Mississippi is assuming a more eiious aspect. The half doen companies of regulars which Gen. Gaines carried up a month ago, and all the pacific remonstrances of the General, have been ioiuCkient to brinjj these "deluded people to reaton. Tney incree in hostile demonstrations and in numbers. The whole number of the disaffected, either embodied cr within distance to embody, is estimated at two thousand. In conf quence, Gen. Gaines has called'upon t tie Governor of Illinois for troops, Sz, 1400 mounted volunteers, under Gen. Dmcart, and accompanied by Governor Reynolds, 'have gone up, and 2 days ago the remaiuing effective men, about two companies, at Jelferson Barracks, proceeded up in the steam boat E .terprize with Gen. Atkinson of the regular army. The character of the oihcen, and the policy of the gnvernment,are a. guarantee that all possible forbearance will be observed towards these infatuated people, ar.d if chastisement falls upon them, ihey will drawit on themselves by their own blind and obstinate conduct. 07 T 1 1 M friends of temperance are hereby not lied that ihe Daibom county T empt ranee Society will ho d its quarterly meeting at the court house on Monday evening1 18ih mat. half past 7 o'clock, when addresses will be de. liveied and meinbeis received.
