The Council reported to have been held to the North, by tlic" Pottawattamies, for-llic purpose of dctcrndnirig "what course; they should pursue in reference to the "War, was n Council of an entirely pacific character. Not one word was said in that Council about ihe course it would be proper for the Nation to tekc in relation to the difficulty between Black Hawk and the Whites.

We have selected together :iTi the information received since our last in relation to the disturbances with the Indians and given it in our paper to-day. The Little arafdefcut of the whites at Hickory creek, near Rock Island, turns out to have been less disastrous than anticipated. Wc understand that the war department has forwarded orders to Gen. Atkinson to . prosecute the war with the utmost rigor, and not delay a moment to listen to talks, until the hostile forces arc subdued. i.i nm in At the election held on Saturday, the 2d inst. Job A. Beach and Richard Hughes were elected justices of the peace, and L. Coniy and A. Sho water constables for Jackson township. We have not learned who wove elected to the other township offices. The legislature of Pennsylvania assembled at Ilarrisburgh on the 2(.)th ult., for the purpose of districting the State into representative districts, conformably to the new apportionment law. The legislature of Ohio met at Columbus on Monday last, for a similar purpose. Wc fear the friends of the United States Bank, in congress, arc not disposed to yield those salutary restrictions and amendments to the charter, which the people desire, and which wc believe arc necessary to obtain the sanction of the president to the bill. The following vote will show that the Senate have rejected a proposition to restrict the bank in the location of branches in the states, where the assent of any state may be withheld. The constitution of this state expressly prohibits the location in it of any banking institution, except such as arc established by authority of the legislature. Congress, however, in the face of this restriction, which it sanctioned, would clothe the Bank of the United States with power to locate a branch in the state, thereby setting at naught the constitution and all authority of the state. We think this is overstepping the proper bounds, and trampling upon state authority and rights. If the states, through their representatives, desire the location of branches, let them be established; but we desire never to see any authority conferred on the Bank to locate branches in any state, contrary to its desire, or without first having obtained its consent thereto. In Senate, May 30. B ANK OF THE UNITED STATES. The bill to modify and continue the act incorporating the subscribers to the United States Bank, was then taken up, as the unfinished business, the question being on Mr. FonsY'Tifs motion to amend the amendment proposed by Mr. Mooitn, by striking out the clause requiring the assent of each State to the establishment of a branch within it. This motion was discussed by Messrs. Ewixc, Smith, IIol:.ies, BucKXEiiand DalAS. The question was divided at the request of Mr. S.-MiTir, who called for the yeas and nays on the motion to strike out. The question on striking out the words ' requiring the assent of the States was then taken by yeas and nays and decided in the , affirmative as follows: YEAS Messrs. BelU Puckncr Chambers? Clay, Clayton, Dallas, IXckerson, Ewing, Foot, Torsyth, Frelmghnysen, Ilolmesi Johnston. Knight, Jsauduin, Poindexter, Prentiss, Hobbins, Kobinsou, Uuggles, Seymour, Silsbec Smith, Sprague, Tomlinson, Waggaman, Web stcr, Wilkins 23. NAYS Messrs. Denton, Bibb, Brown, Dudley,-. EHis.

The second branch of Mr. Foxsytii's amendment, to insert a few words, merely to render the amendment of Mr. Moore verbally correct, was agreed to. Mr. SrnAcur, then moved to amend the amendment of Mr. Mooxn, by substituting for it a provision that the bonus required of the Bank shall be distributed among the several States, in proportion to their population. Upon this motion a discussion took place, in which Messrs. Sjpracui:, Weiister, Tazewell, Forsyth, and S.xitji participated, and the Senate, without taking tho qucst ion , Adjourne d . Glohc. Wc see it stated that Gen. Houston, charged with an assault and battery on Mr Stanbcrry with intent to kill, and indicted in one of the courts cf the District, had escajed from Washington. Such is not the fact. Gen. II. was arrested and gave bail for his appearance at the next term of the court, and then left Washington, probably with a view to procure witnesses to attend the investigation ofihcfrajtd charged upon him. and the late secretary of war, by Stanberry and others, in relation to contracts For Indian rations.
The national republican?, alias, "friend
oi cuii oruer, nave matte a. move towards holding a convention in this county to nominate candidates for representatives, &c. The meeting to appoint delegates for this township, is to be held in this place to-day. Now, wc have no objection to this course on the part ot our opponents, for we believe the wishes of the people can be better consulted by conventional nominations than by selfnominations; but after what the "friends of civil order' have said about meetings and conventions after they have denounced them as dictation, as controling the freedom of choice, as determining for the "'menials of Dearborn county for whom they shall vote,"'' (as the Statesman avers,) it is passing strange they should adopt the same pernicious practice. The nationals may perhaps attempt to excuse themselves for this incon sistency, by saying the Jackson party hold conventions to nominate candidates, and they must meet them on the same footing. This wo consider a lame apology, and is in f ict an open avowal of a determination to do wrong, merely because others do so. Assuming that the nationals were in earnest in all their scolfs and jeers at conventions and caucuses, they certainly place a very low estimate on what is rioht on correct principle now to turn round and adopt the very same system they deprecated. But this is only another evidence that the nationals, like their grand leader Mr. Clay, arc crcat ures of circumstance. When it was thought politic to decry the nominating system, it was done unsparingly and with great seeming earnestness; but now, when it is discovered that the people look upon it with an approving eye, they begin to relax in opposition, and by and by the once odious system will assume all the pleasing features of the far famed "American.-' The post office bill has passed bothhouses of congress. Wc regret to learn, that two of the three routes connecting with this place and Rising Sun, were lost or stricken out in the Senate. The route retained and established, runs from this place, via Cainbridge, York Ridge, &,c. to Rushvillo. The contracts for routes under the new bill, will probably be made in October next; of which we will give timely notice. Tho Michigan Road Commissioner, Col. Polk, gives notice that he will let to the lowest bidder, at the court house in Indianapolis, on tho 3d of July next, contracts for building bridges over Flatrcck, Blue river, Sugar creek, Fall creek, Little Sugar creek, and Lick creek, where the said road crosses the same. The plans of the work may be seen at the recorder's office in Indianapolis. Wc are plensed to be able to state, that the bill from the Senate extending the benefit of pensions to all who served two years at. one or different times, in the army of the revolution, has passed the house of representatives. At present ' we are unapprised of its provisions, but shall be able to give the act itself shortly. The Washington city Glohc, though only 18 months in existence, circulates over 12,000 papers weekly. Near six thousand of the Extra were issued on the 17th May, and tho daily increase was between 3 and 400! The Globe, need wc say, is the leading administration paper, and' the astonishing increase of its subscribers, is one among the many evidences of the increasing popularity of the cause it advocates. Mr. Seth Ilobson, casually a resident of this place for some years past, lately fell from the deck of a flat boat at New Orleans and was drowned. Ho was not seen after he fell, and it was supposed he passed under the adjoining boats. Steam Boats. Tho select committee, to which the subject had been referred in the house of representatives of congress, has made a report accompanied by a bill to regulate the navigation of Steam boats. The New York Evening Post gives the fol lowing sketch of the bill: The bill "'to provide for the better security of the lives of passengers on board of vessels propelled by steam,"' consists of twelve sections. The first requires a new enrollment of all steam boats before October next ; and a heavy penalty is affixed by the second section to the navigating a steam boat after that time for which a license under the proposed law shall not have been taken out. Tho third, fourth and fifth sections provide for the appointment of inspectors to examine quarterly the boilers and machinery of all steam boats, and specify their duties. The strength of the boilers is to be tested bv an experiment of hydraulic pressure, equal to three times the pressure that the boilers are allowed to carry in steam. The sixth secliuu uiiiuiiib unnuia u.uu niai-ieiS OI Steam boats to procure a quarterly inspection of their boilers under pain ot forfeiting their licenses for neglecting to do so, and incur ring the fines for running without a license. The seventh section requires that in case of stopping the boat for any purpose, the engine shall be kept in motion sufficiently to work the pump, give the necessary supply of water, and keep the steam down to what it is when the boat is under head-way, lessening also the weight upon the safetv valve, under a penalty ot 8-00. Th ; eighth section points out tho mode of col ; lecting the penalties when incurred. The j ninth requires that every steam boat shall be provided with a long boat, for every fifty j tons of her burden, capable of carrying at ! least twelve persons, under a penalty3 of ScW). The tenth requires steam boats to be furnished with a fire engine and the necessary apparatus for extinguishing Ures. The eleventh section provides for the prevention of steam boat collisions by making
it the duty of every master and pilot of a steam boat, not navigating tide water, when descending a river, to shut oil the steam upon coming within half a mile of an ascending boat, and permit the boat to float upon the current until the ascending boat shall have passed. The masters of the ascending boat are charged with the responsibility of steering clear to the descending boat, and are made liable, in damages, to the extent of the injury which may be sustained. The twelfth and last section requires two lights to be hoisted on board steam boats at ni'dit. A. Y. Eve -ling Fost.
For the Palladium. Mr. Editor I should like to be informed wlnt fees the high sheriff is allowed, by the "friends of civil order,"' for distributing through the townships printed notices of public meetings, to appoint delegates to the national republican convention; and also, whether the vast number of writs and citations, put into his hands to serve, by virtue of his oflice, have been thrown there by those concerned, to enable him to electioneer to advantage, and at the same time pocket a good round sum for his trouble in visiting "every village, house and hamlet." Any information on cither of these points will be thankfully received, by ODED. Case of Jon?; Joxes. Supreme Court has r.et aside the proceedings of the Bartholomew Circuit Court in the second conviction of Jones, for the murder of Ray, by winch ho was to have been hung according to the respite of the Governor, on Friday the first of June, inst. Tho error upon which the case was reversed was, we understand, committed by the Board of County Commissioners, in the manner in which they selected the names of the petit jurors, they having filled the venire by selecting from a list of jurors, instead of having placed the names in a box and drawn them by lot. A new, and third trial is ordered, and Jones after having been twice sentenced to death, has again to endure the threatened horrors of a third conviction and sentence. It is apprehended, that opinions of his guilt have become so generally notorious, that a third jury will be obtained with much difficulty, if at all, in Bartholomew county, which may possibly procrastinate his trial long enough for him to pay the debt of nature in the ordinary way. Indiana Democrat. Two travellers passed this place since our last publication, who had been 20 miles beyond Ilcnepin. They stated that, since the battle took place, in which Major Stillmnn's troops were routed and 52 killed, some houses on the frontier had been burnt and the inhabitants murdered by the Indians. The boats, which were supposed to have been captured, had not been heard of at that place. Various reports were in circu lation there, regarding the actual force of Black Hawk, who, it was said, had retired to a swamp, inaccessible to the whites. Some gave him 10,000; while others reduced tho number to 2000. The inhabitants, as far as probable danger reached them, had collected, and forted in different places; and great scarcity of provisions was experienced. Tho number of troops now in the field from Illinois, is reported to be 1000. 1700 mounted men left Rushvillo on the oOth April for the Yellow Banks, on the Mississippi, and the Infantry were to have been conducted to the same place by a steamboat, which had left Bardstown for that purpose. After the mounted men had left Rushvillc, a letter from Gen. Atkinson arrived, directing them to march to Dixon's Ferry, which they declined, on account of the scarcity of provisions in that quarter. Information had reached Head Quarters, that Black Hawk, with about 500 men, and women, children, $cc. had passed Dixcn's, on his way to build a town 12 miles above that place, on the Pottawatomie lands. New-Albany Gazette, June 1. Columbus, Ind. May 20. On Thursday evening last, Jones came very near making his escape, again, from the custody of the Sheriff. In the course of the evening, we understand, while his guard had stepped up stairs, Jones walked out of the house and mounted his son's horse that stood hitched to a rack, and made off, full speed. Ho was pursued and overtaken, however, just as he reached the woods, by his horse stumbling and throwing him off. Coin m b us Chroh icle.
