Iiawrencclmrghj March 34. (7- Mr. Z. A. Bonham is authorized to act as agent for this paper, in the vicinity of Kelso post-office. 07 We are authorized to announce Capt. JOHN WEAVER, as a candidate for Sheriff in this county, at the ensuing August election. The act prohibiting the circulation, in this state, of bank bills of a less denomination than $5, after the first of September next, is inserted in another column. We have received a number of a new paper recently established at Liberty, in this state, by Messrs. Boon, Dooley &, Walters, entitled the "Liberty Port-Folio:'' The Port-Folio is printed on a super royal shset, and in all respects is a very respectable addition to the weekly periodicals of the state. The editors, we understand, lean a little towards Mr. Clay for the presidency; but when they ascertain what a trail support he is, we imagine they will straighten up again. Paper, of different kinds, is manufactured at Richmond in this state. The writing and printing piper we have seen from that mill, is decidedly superior to any of the same Nos. made in the west, or in fact any where else. We should like to encourage the manufacturers, if the article could be furnished here at Cincinnati rates.' Senator Holmes, of Maine, has signified his intention to decline a re-election in a long address to the people of that state. Now, if any of our readers know '" why Jack did not cat his supper,' they can very easily see through Mr. Holmes' disinterested patriotism, and the reasons which induce him to decline that which there was not the least probability of being offered to him. Mr. II. has been misrepresenting his constituents for years, and he is not so ignorant of human affairs as not to discover that they would embrace the first opportunity to show their honest indignation at his course. But he hopes to escape the reprimand by declining a re-election a pretty come off for a dismissed public servant, truly. The occupation of our Miscellaneous page, for two or three weeks past, with laws, rail roads, politics, Jcc. must not alarm our readers, particularly the fair portion of them. We hope, in a short time, by the use of small type, to get tlirough with the matter requiring immediate attention, when the usual character will be given to the last page. There are certain times when an editor is troubled to find matter to fill his sheet; and others again, when the great difficulty is in determining what he should exclude of the superabundance. We have now on our table enough matter to fill five such sheets as ours, on subjects interesting to our readers. Mr. Hayne's speccii on the tariff, Mr. Clay's, on the same subject, the various speeches in the senate on Mr Van Buren's nomination, and Mr. Johnson's report on the subject of imprisonment for debt, arc among the subjects we should like to give to our readers at an early period, if we could find room but there's the difficult v. The opposition are silently chuckling at the prospect of a rupture in the south, arising out of the late decision of the supreme court in the case of the Missionaries imprisoned in Georgia. They seem to think president Jackson is bound to carry into elfect that decision and release the imprisoned, even at the point of the bayonet. The president may, take a different view of the matter he may perhaps, consider the decision of the court an open violation of the constitution a flagrant assumption of power over the reserved rights of Georgia, as a sovereign slate, and feel himself bound by his oath, solemnly taken to "preserve, protect, and defend the constitution of the United States," to disregard the mandate. But there are various leal movements to bo made, involving many of the 'daw's delays," before the subject can be brought to an issue requiring the interference of the president; and perhaps ere these proceeding are had, the missionaries will have served out the time of confinement, and been released by Georgia. And what then? Why, the matter will all end, as did the Indian's case, brought before the Supreme Court in nothing final. The Pennsylvania Democratic Conven tion, assembled at Harrisburgh on the 5th inst. Gov. olf was nominated for re election, and William Wilkins,for vice pre sident, on uie lUtli ballot. Messrs. Dallas, Buchanan, and ah Jiurcn were severally balloted for in conjunction with Mr. Wilkins. 1 he highest vote given or Mr. Wil kins, was 07; for Dallas, 03 ; for Buchanan, 17; lor an Buren, 4. At 1 previous convention of tho Antioltand Masonic party, Joseph Ritner was bclie, was also nominated for by aother Convention. governor, 'lie political divisions in this old Demo crat state are numerous, on all questions butmc the presidential. General Jacksoretains a firm hold on the feelings and att hnicnts of the democracy of Pennsyl vat, and at the next presidential election wi obtain an almost unanimous vote in hifavor. Jq publish to-day a correspondence bctten a committee ot the members of the Kv York Legislature and the President Te letter ot the latter rather astonishes tl reposition, and is found difficult to get

either round or over. Tlry are mid with j the blunt honesty of the old hero, and would

rather by half, if he could not hive said something disparaging to Mr. Van Buren, that he had said nothing about him: for then they could have implied a great deal from his silence. Corporation Election. The first election for corporation- officers, under the Jaw passed in 1831, will take place on the first Monday in April next. That our readers', interested in this election, may understand the law now in force, determining the qualifications of ectors and about which there is little reason for those doubts which have heretorore distracted our corporation elections and transactions, we here insert the 3d and 4th sections. Sec. 3 Eacli white male inhabitant of said town,, sane, and not a pauper, being a citizen of the United States, and twentyone years old and upward, who shall have resided in said corporation one year last preceding said election, and been assessed with, and actually paid a tax to said corporation, shall be entitled to vote at all elections held therein; but no person shall be eligible as president, or member of the select council, who shall not possess a freehold estate in said corporation, worth five hundred dollars, and at the time of his election be an inhabitant thereof. Sec. 4. There shall be elected annually, on the first Monday in April, at some suitable place in said town, and at such time of the day as shall be directed by the president and select council, a president and five members of the select council, who shall serve one year from and after their election, and until successors are chosen and qualified, who shall, before they enter upon the duties of their office, severally take the oaths required by the constitution of this state; due notice of which election shall be given by the recorder, at least one week previous thereto. L ATE FROM ENG LAND. The Cholera was gradually spreading; and fever was prevailing to an alarming extent at Glasgow, and numerous deaths were occurring in consequence. The whole number of cases of cholera that have occurred in England since the commencement of the disease, down to the 18th Jan. was 2030, deaths D'-'ti. Turkey was in a state of apparent decay. In addition to the revolt of Egypt, Damascus was a scene of riot. Great Fire at Glasgow. One of the most destructive fires that ever occurred at Glasgow, took place on the ldth of January, in Queen street, where a Court of three- sides, (Queen's Court) of great extent,-occupied chiefly as warehouses, was burnt to the ground. J he property destroyed, most of which was insured, was valued at 150,000 pounds sterling. Two lives were lost. Some idea may be formed of the intensity of the fire, when it is stated that the iron safes formed no protection to the books locked vp in them. A London paper says considerable consternation lias been excited at the Pavillion, by the refusal of her Majesty to receive the wife of one of her illustrious consort's brothers. Mr. Clay, in his second Tariff speech, made a malicious attack upon Albert Gallitan denouncing him as a ''heart less foreigner'' and opposed to American interests! 0O"Mr. Gallitan is the same conspicuous individual whom Adams and Clay sent to England, as Foreign Minister, to settle the West India trade lie is now Presi dent of tbe Branch Bank of the U. S. at New York. WTc thought the Bank of the IT S did not employ "heartless foreigners' to direct its concerns! So say the mononnli. at least. Ohio Sun. From the United States Tcleraoh Washington, Feb. 10, 1832. Dear Sir : Having just arrived in the United States from the Colony of Liberia, to which place I went as master of the schr. Margaret Mercer, and where I remained 13 days, during which time I was daily on shore, and carefully observed the state of atlans, and inquired into the condition of the people, I venture to state some facts m regard to the circumstances and prospects of the colony. On the 14th December I arrived, and on the 15th went on shore, and was received in the most polite and friendly manner by tho Governor, Dr. MeciiLixjkwho introduced me to the minister and the principal inhabitants. All the colonists appear to be in good health. All my ex pectations in regard to the aspect of things, the health, harmony, order, contentment, industry, and general prosperity of the settlers were more than realized. There are about 200 buildings in the town of Monrovia, extending along the Cape Messurado, not far from a mile and a quarter. Most of these are good substantial houses and stoi cs, (the first story in many of them being stone) and some of them handsome, spacious, painted, and with Venitian blinds. Nothing struck me more remarkably, than the great superiority in intelligence, manners, conversation, dress, and general appearance in every respect of the people, over their colored brethren in America. So much was I pleased with what I saw, that I observed to the people, should I make a true report, it would hardly be credited in the United States. Among all I conversed with, I did not find a discontented person, or hear one express a desire to return to America. I saw no intemperance, nor d'd I hear a profane word uttered by any one. Being a Minister of the Gospel, on Christmas day I preached both in the Methodist and Babtist churches, to full and attentive congregations of from 3 to 400 persons at each. I know of no place where the Sajbath appears to be more respected than in Monrovia. I was glad to see that the Colonial Agent, or Governor, is a constant at-

. and appears desirous of promoting :il and religious welfare of the peo- j t;ie mor p!e. Most of the settlers appear to be rapidly acquiring property, and I have no doubt they are doing better for themselves and their children in Liberia, than they could do in any other part of the world. Could the free people of color in this country but see the real condition of their brethren who have settled in Africa, I am persuaded they would require no other motive to induce them to emigrate. This is mv decided and deliberate judgment. Very respectfully, Sir, Your friend and servant, WILLIAM ABELS. Rev. R. R. G vk ley. P. S. I dined several times with the Colonists, and I think no better tables could be set in any part of the world. We had every thing that heart could desire, of meats, fish, fowls, vegetables, and wines, :c. UNITED STATES' CENSUS.

The health of the President is made the subject of much speculation among his opponents, and they would appear to draw great consolation from the hope (hat he will soon die. "Hope is the anchor of the soul," and it would be cruel, if it were possible, to deprive the enemies of the venerable old Patriot, of this last vestige cf consolation. It is very apparent, however, they have now concluded that the death of the Presi dent is the only chance left them of preventing him from being re-elected. We have often heard it said that it was a tedious business to wait for "dead men's shoes.'1 The truth is, however, that the health of the President is said by those who see him every day, to be better than it has been for mny years. Indiana Democrat Congressional Analysis. Ma noil 12. The Senate did not sit on Saturday. In the House of Representatives, Mr. E. Eveiett, from the Committee on the Library, reported a resolution directing the Clerk to purchase two hundred and forty copies of the Documentary History of the Bank of the United States. After a short debate the resolution was agreed to. The bill to establish certain post roads, and to alter and discontinue others, and for other purposes, was read the third time and 7avsed.

Dickerson, Bobbins, Buckner, Hayne, Mangum, Sprague, Clayton, WTcbster, and Erclinghuysen, when the motion to amend the amendment was carried by a vote of 24 to 23.

Mr. Wayne's amendment, which proposed the appointment of a select committee, to meet in the recess of Congress, to examine into the general arrangement of the Bank, was next considered. Mr. Wayne addressed the House for about two hours in favor of his amendment, but without having concluded at a quarter past 4 o'clock, he gave way to a motion for an adjournment, which was carried. The following resolution was offered in the house of representatives on the 12th instant. On motion of Mr. M'Carty, it was Resolved, That the Committee on Internal Improvement be instructed to enquire into the expediency of an appropriation to improve the United States post road, leading from Cincinnati, Ohio, via Brookville, Rushville, Indianajxdis, and Crawfordsville, to Lafayette, in Indiana, and of opening and constructing a post road from thence through the Indian country to Lake Michigan, at the mouth of Trail creek, or to Chicago, Illinois.
