JiaYrrencebiargii, Ajn-iS SI. A law of the last session of the legislature? makes it a penal offence to vend lottery tickets in this state. OrWe are requested to state that the Protestant Methodists will hold a two days' meeting, at tli3 Court House, on the first Saturdny and Sunday in May. The Rnv. George Brown and others, will attend on the occasion. The act of congress, allowing ihe right of pre-emption to settlers on the public finds, under certain regulations, and ihe entry of land in 40 acre lots, is given in another part of this paper. b.LT. Tbis article has fallen very con siderable in price, within the List two months, owing mainly, as is supposed, to a relinquishment of the works on Kenhawaby the company, which Ins for same years past engrossed nearly all the article to keep up the price- We understand that the members of that association have large quantities on liand, which they are now willing to dispose of at from 25 to 2S cents per bushel. The company has amassed an immense sum of money, by a monopoly of the salt trade, and now seem disposed to propitiate public opinion by throwing the article into market at prices below its value. Sale of Lois, The agent of state for the town of Indianapolis, will, (in obedience of an act of the last General Assembly,) expose to public sale on the 4th Monday in May next, all the unreserved lots belonging to the state within the bounds of said town. The sale will be held at the court house and continued until all the lots are offered. Persons wishing to purchase property at the seat of government, would do well to attend the sale of lots in May next. Many of the most valuable and central sites for business in the town, will then be offered for sale. Canal at the Falls. It will be recollected that a great clamor was raised against the President for refusing his assent to the bill appropriating $100,000, in addition to the $200,000 previously granted by congress and expended, for constructing the canal at the Falls. In his message to congress in 1830, he gave his reasons at length, and assumed the ground that partnerships between the government and individuals or corporations were improper and contrary to the genius and principles of the federal compact. "All improvements," he adds, "effected by the funds of the nation for general use, should be open to the enjoyment of all our fellow-citizens, exempt from the payment o f tolls, or any imposition of that character P The Louisville canal was projected by an association of private individuals, and the work carried into effect by and under the authority of the state of Kentucky. These individuals prayed congress for $100,000 to assist them in finishing the canal, and their desire was granted. This sum expended, the company made another application to congress for a like sum of money, which was also granted. This sum expended, and the work still unfinished, a third application was made to congress for more money, which would also have been successful, had not the president interposed ami by his veto, cut short such an improvident waste of the common fund for the benefit of an association of private individuals. We know that by many the canal at the falls is accounted a national improvement, and as such, should have received the fosterinn aid of the Government. And we are ready to admit the importance of such a work, affording at all times a safe conveyance to our citizens in the prosecution of trade; but, at the same time would beg leave to dissent from the opinion that the canal, as constructed and regulated, is a national improvement, or that it meets the wants or wishes of the public. Wc believe that it falls very far short of public expectation, & were the question now submitted to the people, they would not only veto the last appropriation, but also all others in aid of the work under the direction of a company. In support of this opinion we submit the following statement of the rates of toll on flat boats passing the canal, kindly furnished by a friend, now on his way to New Orleans, with a load of produce. On all boats of 40 feet by lb u u u 4Q to 50 by " $10 00 12 00 15 00 a it a ti r,n ir.r. K,f ; An audition ol Mo per cent, is made on boats measuring 18 feet in width The gentleman from whom we received this information, not choosing to pay the company 18 75 for the privilege of passing .through the canal, took the old chute with liis boat, and, with the aid of a pilot, got safely over the falls for one fourth the money asked for toll. We would direct the attention of our readers to the proposals of the editor ol the Washington city Globe, for publishing extra numbers of that paper, to include the time from the 1st of May to the termination of the Presidential election. Of the Globe, as a political pr.per, it is hardly necessary for us to say any thing. Its extensive circulation and the able manner it sustains the measures of the administration, have given it a character far above the reach of the envious missiles of its enemies, or the applause of its more humble co-workers in the republican cause. We shall ba happy at all times to be the medium through which the friends of the administration, in this vicinity, may become subscribers to the Globe.

Cii.vvces. The editors" of the Madison Herald, have disposed of their interest in that establishment to Mr. J. M. Langdon, who proposes to continue its publication. The new editor has made an alteration in the size of tho sheet, but in other respects the HeraM will be conducted as heretofore. We wish him success in his new vocation. Mr. Dowling, the editor of the Political Observer (Grecnsburgh la.) and formerly a partner in the Statesman office of this place, hes disposed of his interest in the Observer establishment to Mr. J. II. Brown, who assumes the editorial department. The paper from being a warm Clayite, will hereafter be conducted on the mild principle of a neutral. Mr. Dowling, on leaving Grcensburgb, tikes charge of the Western Register, at Terrohaute, which he proposes to enlarge to a super imperial. The politics of the Register offcourse, will undergo no change, but receive an impetus from the abilities of Mr. D. as a political writer.

The legislature of Pennsylvania adjourned on the 12th inst. and will convene again on the 19th May for the purpose of districting the state, under the new ratio, preparatory to the congressional elections in October. The legislature of Ohio will also convene sometime intervening October next, for a similar purpose. Congress has certainly done great injustice to the country by delaying the passage of the apportionment bill so long. The matter might just as well been disposed of (3 weeks since as not, and then the legislatures of the states, where elections for congress are held this year, might have districted them without the enormous expense of meeting again for that purpose. We have been favored with a number of the Cincinnati Gazette of the 19th inst. from which we extract the following details of a most dreadful calamity on board the steam boat Brandywine. The occurrence is full of painful interest to the citizens in this part of the country, as at this season of the year there are always more or less of our traders returning home. How many were on board the Brandywine, or how many have been by the accident hurried off the stage of life, we arc unable at this moment to tell. In the list of the dead, we see the name of Martin Cozinc, an old and very respectable citizen of this county. The persons named Myers and Adams are most probably citizens of this county. Next week we hope to be able to give a more full account. From the Nashville Republican, April 14. AWFUL CALAMITY! It is our painful duty to announce one of the most awful occurrences that the history of steam boat disasters has ever afforded. Several letters have been received m town from Memphis, stating the loss of the steamer Brandywine by fire, on the Dth insiant, about 25 miles above that place, and the destruction therewith of sixty or seventy lives, either by drowning or burning. The news appears to have been communicated by Capt. Hamilton himself, thus leaving no room to doubt its correctness. J&ght or ten cabin passengers and fifty or sixty deck passengers were lost; among the former, Mrs. Robert T. Walker and child and Mr. Robert Stothart of this place. The Brandywine was on her passage from New Orleans to Louisville; we understand she was insured. Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Memphis to a friend in (his place ,dated April 0th. Capt. Hamilton has arrived here from the wreck of the Steam boat Brandywine and reports that at eight o'clock last eveniDg, 25 miles above this place, wind blovring fresh, his boat was discovered to have taken fire on the upper deck in one minute her whole decks were wrapped in flames, and before it was possible to run her ashore, between fifty and seventy of the passengers and crew precipitated themselves into the river and were drowned, or burned to death. It is said that Captain Hamilton and his pilot although surrounded by the flames, stuck manfully to the boat until she grounded, about 50 yards from ihe shore, when the Captain, much scorched, reached the bank by the help of a line. The light was very preceptible here and upon the coat opposite for ten miles into the country. Additional particulars, by the editor of the Cincinnati Gazette. We learn in addition to the above, from conversing with a number of the passengers of the Brandywine, arrived here yesterday in the steam boat Robert Fulton, that at the time the boat took fire she was racing with the steam boat Hudson; that the Brandywine had stop ped for an hour and a half to make seme repairs; that in getting under headway a large quantity of rosin wns thrown into the fires, which caused the sparks to fly very thick, and to set fire to some straw which lay near the chimnies; that the wind blew hard down the river; that the number of passengers and hands on board was about two hundred and that out of the whole there was but seventy five saved. The passengers were landed on an island, many of whom died of the burning before morning. In attempting to get the yawl out the steam boat ran upon and sunk her. The accounts given by the passengers of the number on board, vary some saying 20C,and oth

ers 230; but all agree, that the number found living, in the morning-, upon the island, was seventy-five. Nine women were lost, six of whom were black servants. The following is as correct a list as we have been able to obtaiu of the names of persons lost. The gentleman who furnished it to us states that it contains the names of about one third of those known to be lost among the deck passengers, and the naroes'of all the cabin passengers who have lost their lives. CABIN PASSENGERS. H. Hillard , Nashville, H. H. Davenport, Foiler, Robert Stothart, Nashville,Mrs. Walker and child, Mrs. Sparks, 3 colored women and child. DECK PASSENGERS. L.

Another Accident, Tho steam boat Polander, a short time after she left ourj wharf Cincinnati last evening, on her upward passage, came in contact with the Hornet, which was coming into port, by which considerable injurywas done. We regret to say, the Captain of the Hornet was killed, and another person very much injured. Particulars not ascertained. PIVECHJEITTTAIi ELECTION, HELD FIRST MONDAY IN NOV. 1S3X.

A "New Coalition" of factious men are managing at Washington to accomplish their selfish ends at the hazard of their country's peace, prosperity, and honor. Extremes have met. The Champion of an unreasonable Tariff and the Author of Nullification, having no principle in common but a restless ambition, are found united in their efforts to baftle the President in his foreign negotiations, kindle faction in our halls of legislation, and fill our country .with discontent and anarchv. It is time for the people to take the alarm ! The causeless rejection of our Minister to Great Britain was but the first overt act of this "Holy Alliance" against every thing that is pure in our government and patriotic in its administration. It will soon be followed by others equally hostile to the interests of the people and insulting to tho President of their choice. Instead of devoting themselves to the promotion of justice, harmony and peace, a band of political managers in Congress arc spending sleepless nights and anxious days in devising means to array against the President all the selfish, avaracious, corrupt and corrupting influences which pervade the Republic. With these they hope to vanquish the conqueror of Europe's bravest armies, and close in obloquy and disgrace, the public career of h:m "filled the measures of his count rys glory." What are we to expect from the success of this "A cw Coalition ?" Will our foreign rerelations be better managed ? Will our laws be executed with more fidelity and energy at home? Will our agriculture, commence and manufactures flourish more? Will our national debt be sooner paid? Is there hope that the train of public affairs in general would progress better or so well? No; it is not for the benefit of the country that the "New Coalition" has been formed ; nor is any improvement in the public prosperity expected from its success. The strule is for power for place, for the public treasure. Men who want foreign missions, judgeships and other valuable offices, unable to swerve the stern integrity of Andrew Jackson and sell to him their influence and support have united with other aspirants to the Presidency in all sorts of combinations to de stroy his popularity and defeat his re-election, that his place may be occupied by one with whom they may bargain for promotion. It is these men only men who prefer "war, famine and pestilence, or any other scourge," to their own exculsion from power that are seeking to fill the country with complaints and factions. It is tho interest and desire of the people to preserve the administration of their government in honest hands. To effect this object, it is only necessary that they guard against deception, and take steps to procure correct information in relation to the administration. They will find ANDREW JACKSON as true to his country notrs, as he was when he put to hazard fortune, fame, and life, in repelling our invaders. They

will not be content with his simple rr-elec-tion by the same vote which placed him in the prcsidental chair; but by securing him an increased majority, they "will reward hi&J patriotic devotion and enable him to finish his career of public usefulness in glory and in triumph. As in the case of Washington so in that of Jackson, they will take care that our Republic shall not be stigmatized with the imputation of ingratitude. To enable every Freemen to obtain correct information during the impending conflict, we propose to publish thirty numbers of an EXTRA GLOBE, commencing about the first of May and continuing until the election of Electors for ONE DOLLAR. It will bo a large imperial sheet entirely filled with useful matter. One number will be published after the election, giving the result in every State, as much in detail as possible. It will be chiefly devoted to a vindication of the character, fame and principles of ANDREW JACKSON, with a view to his reelection. It will promptly repeal the slanders and falsehoods which may be promulgated to destroy him, and hold the "New Coalition" up to merited detestation. From the nature of the undertaking, all subscriptions must be paid in advance, and no paper will be sent until the money shall be received. To enable all subscribers, to begin with the first number we beg our friends who may receive these proposals, immediately to raise a subscription and make returns. F. P. BLAIR.
