PALLADIUM.
Lawrencebnrgh, August 4.
The nest session of the probate court will commence in this place on Monday the 115th inst. The board of county commissioners will convene here on the first Monday in September next. . The editor of a Clay paper, in this state, says, "Ii 'becomes our painful duty to announce" the veto of the bank bill by the president. How very sorrowful and pathetic! Had the editor lost his wife, he could not have expressed the fact more solemnly. The Ohio Sun says, "we lean that the Cholar-and-Mob-us is in Cincinnati. It is

Death by Lightning. We learn that on Sunday last, the house of Mr. Joseph Hall, on Tanner's creek, in this county, was struck by Lightning, and one of his children, about four years old, instantly killed. The fluid struck and very much injured the chimney, and then passed down inside to the hearth where the child was sitting.
friends of the administration, for the reception of a document which must, in their language, prove the inevitable destruction of the western country. They seized with avidity on this as the last hope to defeat Gen. Jackson, and break down his party in this country.. To this end they travelled day and night, but their efforts were in vain. Jackson men were at their post, and have repelled the charges with redoubled energy. Be assured the veto is hailed with shouts of joy, and loud expressions of increased confidence in the present administration, by its old friends.
tire idea of being a candidate for any office. After I gave up the idea of being a candidate; and being entirely out of business, I thought I could not spend the time better than to pay a visit to my relations in the state of Ohio. I now come in my own proper person and ask the forgiveness of those I promised I would be a candidate and was not and return my sincere thanks to the citizens of Dearborn county in general for the friendship manifested by them on the first Monday of August 1830. Yours respectfully, SAMUEL MORRISON. Lawrenceburgh, August 1st, 1S32.
The notable and very consequential Mr. Stanberry, who occupied such a, prominent post in the Clay ranks during the last session of congress, has suffered a further disgrace, and incurred the censure of the house. When Mr, Clay's fist-day resolution, came up for action, Mr. Stanberry took occasion to make some very offensive remarks, in reference to the chair, for which he was censured by a vote of 03 to 44. The friends of Mr. Clay ni3y congratulate themselves on procuring for Mr. S. this honorary distinction, as a reward for his untiring exertions to serve them during the session.
Believing that our readers generally feel
a desire to become thoroughly acquainted with the bank question, we have devoted much of this paper to an examination of the .subject. The extracts given from Mr.
Winters speech, possess much information,
and should be attentively read. The remarks upon the bank, by the editor of the (jlobe, are strong and to the purpose.
Some of the objections urged to the charter,
as it passed, are unanswerable, and not to be5got round or over.
The War. It now seems that the Indian : .t m i. tt I.
and his followers, have most likely betaken themselves to flight, and gone west of the
Mississippi. The most that can be done
under such circumstances, by our army in
the west, is to fort and plant forces at regu
lar distances on the frontier, to prevent the
enemy from ever returning into the settle
mcnts. It is idle to think of following the
Indians into their own country.
General Scott has written letters from
Chicago to the executives of this state and Illinois, to correct exaggerated stories of the prevalence of the Cholera in the army under his command. It seems that about 120 cases had occurred among the troops, of which about 50 had proved fatal. The General had taken every precaution to prevent the spread of the disease, by separating the infected from the main army; and he expresses a b'aLof that the pestilence is on the decline. ?T4--v. N We now havVhad some time to observe the operation of Yue veto, in different parts of the country. Here, at home, we can safely say, from observation, it has had none of those revolutionizing effects, anticipated by the enemies of Gen. Jackson, but on the contrary, we believe, has rather strengthen
ed his cause. Those who were friends of
the administration before, are friends still; and those who were its enemies before, have relaxed little in opposition; though in justice we should say, several, if ever they, were bank men, are so no longer, and readily admit the force and propriety of the president's remarks. Passing beyond our own observation, and taking the public press as a guide of opinion, and we feel a pleasure in savins the president will be sustain
ed, though the whole moneyed power of the bank be wielded against him. Pennsylvania, the key stone in the arch of democracy, the first in support of the old - Hero, speaks a language not to be misconceived; and aga;n renews her pledges of attachment to the man who has "filled the measures of his country's glory." The spontaneous expressions of public feeling, which have followed the promulgation of the veto message in that state, are in the highest degree flattering to the president, emanating as they do from a quarter in Which the bank was supposed to be strong. The manner in which the bill passed congress the open and undisguised expres
sions of Messrs. Webster and Clay, that it was mainly with a view to atfect the presidential election, that it was urged at this . time have aroused the democratic party to - action, and set a ball a rolling that will overturn every scheme of the bank and its pen- .,. sioned agents to defeat the Jackson ticket in Pennsylvania. We received, a few days since, the following letter, from a gentleman of respecta- . bliity and extensive observation, residing in the northeastern part of this state. It may ' serve to confirm what we have said above. Liberty, July 20, 1832. Dear Sir: The President's veto message has this day been received in our village, and I am happy to inform you that no documsnt ever issued from the pen of our present Chief Magistrate, better calculated -4,- to unite his numerous, friends in this countrv, notwithstanding the desperate effort made by his enemies. Previous to the arrival of the message,, the object of their ox- " emeus was to prepare tha minds of the
Mr. Gregg has issued a hand-bill, in which he takes exceptions to some remarks made in our paper last week, in relation to a certificate intended to affect Mr. Dils among his Jackson friends, and charges us with taking up the cudgel for Mr. D. We do not know what Mr. Gregg believes, but think
the public will bear us testimony that we
lave assumed, in our editorial remarks,
no belligerent attitude against him. On
the republication of an anonymous note, charging Mr. Dils with what we did not be-
ieve to be true, we took occasion to make
a remark, and to caution the public to be on
their guard and attentively scan the tales put in circulation asainst Mr. Dils for elec-
tionecring purposes. We spoke cthe cer
tificate, said to be possessed by Mr. Gregg,
charging Mr. Dils with being opposed to the
administration: and alluded to the material
fact that this certificate was obtained from a
Clay man, and was used by a Clay man, to
advance his own election. That these are
all facts, no one will, we presume, pretend to den v. But now, that we have been charged
with taking up the cudgel for Mr. Dils, let
us examine this certificate, tin's ground work
ot a hand-bill and two or three stump speeches. While it quietly laid in the pocket
of its possessor, public report said Jt proved
conclusively that Mr. Dils had told Mr. Ro
land that he (Dils) was opposed to General
Jackson's re-election; but now when it ap
pears in print, where every one can see it.
it is nothing more than the supposition or
understanding of Mr. R. as to Mr. Dils's poli
tics and to show how easily a man may be mistaken in his meaning or opinion, we
would remark that Mr. Dils has now in his
possession a certificate from Mr. R. deriving
the material parts of the certificate published
by Mr. uregg. 1 hen it seems that either Mr.
Roland did not understand the certificate as
read by Mr. Gregg, cr he did not rightly un i . tut ri-i i
uerstana ;vir. .uns as ne now comes out and corrects the certificate given to Mr G Int his difficulty, is there not great reason to
doubt that a trap has been laid to destroy Mr. Dils's election? Mr. Roland, thoii'di
not politically friendly to Air. Dils, is, we
learn, of this opinion, and would now do him justice. Mr. Gregg, however, seems determined that he shall not, and sticks hirn to the truth of the certificate whether he
will or not.
It is not our object, however, to enquire minutely into the diiference between the
certificate written bv MrGrec and signed
by iVLr. Koiund, end the one written and
signed by Mr. Roland, now in Mr. Dils'
hands. Neither of them prove any thing
against Mr. Dils, that should for a momen prevent his friends from supporting him
But admit one did, and then enquire where
it was obtained and by whom it is used i i.i 'a i r- . i

The Indian War, is for the present at an end. Our army, as was stated in our last paper, marched in pursuit of the enemy, who were said to be encamped near the four lakes. When Gen. Atkinson reached lake
Cosh-ko-nong (which on Tanner's map of
1830, is placed near the junction ot the river
Goose-ke-hawn with Rock river) he found
the country clear, and his long sought enemy
vanished. 1 he Indians, it is supposed, have
made for the Chippeway country, and will
endeavor to cross the Mississippi, but far
beyond any white settlements. Gen. At
kinson expecting, when he marched, to meet
he enemy in a short time, had taken with lim but a small quantity of provisions, in
consequence of which he was obliged to
mlt and divide his forces, at the Jake above
named. He himself with the regulars, some
six hundred and fifty strong, remained at the
lake; the militia, consisting of three bri-
gades under Generals. Posey, Dodge and
Henry, and of about two thousand men,
were ordered to march to Fort Winnebago,
on the Ouisconsm, where stores were hourly
expected, it was me intention oi the com
manding General to consolidate his forces
and renew the pursuit as soon as he had ob
tained sufficient stores.
The march of the army was exceedingly
laborious and tatigumg. lhe greater part of the country they passed over was a com
plete marsh, formed by bodies of water be
neath the surface of the earth. Men and
horses sunk in to a considerable depth at every step. A gentleman who was with the army, informs us that he was on a larsre
mound, fifteen or twenty feet high, which could be shaken by a single man, like a boat on the water. The whole army, regulars or irregulars, officers and soldiers, had enjoyed excellent health, and were sustained throughout their encampment and march by a full confidence in their general. We believe that there is no expectation that our army will again meet with the Indians. Black Hawk will not expose himself and his band to the certain destruction that would follow from a general enagoment; the late successes of the whites in skirmishes, and the number of scouting partics through the country will prevent the recurrence of the depredations and murders by small parties, which made lhe beginning of this contest so terrible and alarming.

Cincinnati. July 25. ANOTHER STEAMBOAT BURNT; AND LOSS OF LIVES ! It is with pain we are obliged to announce to our readers the destruction by fire of the steamboat Phclt.us, which occurred on Monday night last, within a few rods of the spot where the Portsmouth, only ten days before, met with a similar fate. A Cabin passenger whose name we have learnt is Mr. Pearce, his wife and child, and sister inlaw, unable to effect their escape, perished in the flames. The boat was burnt down to her lower guards before the exertions of our city firemen succeeded in extinguishing the flames. The hull, however, was rendered utterly useless and nothing belonging to her, of any value, excepting the boilers and machinery, has been saved. The wreck, yesterday morning, presented a horrible spectacle, the black and disfigured remains of the unfortunate
victims lying on and near the boilers, where they had fallen from the upper deck.
lhe riicebus had arrived at the landing
opposite Broadway, in the evening on a downward trip, and the fire it is supposed, commenced at 12 o'clock. As usual no cause can be assignedfor it.

uur outer enemies are bitter enemies still, and so are likely to remain; our true friends
are stirred up to more enthusiasm; and a few false Swiss always suspected, and ne
ver trusted have rendered themselves less dangerous by confessing their hostility. I speak now of the effect in the city, which is the very citidel of the Bank's strength; in the country, none whatsover appears to have been produced. The institution has no hold upon the people at large for they neither feel nor fear it. The President's message is generally admired, for the vigor of the style, and the devotion to the public good which marks every sentence. We appreciate tho energy of that patriotism
which aared to expose itself to the hazard of such, a contest. A call is out for an opposition meeting on'Monday next; and we ere inclined to produce ours by way of a reply. On this you may depend there will be'a meeting and that meeting will be one of the largest, truest, and most enthusiastic, to which we are accustomed in our good citv. Constant success had cooled our blood;" but now we arc all hot, stirring, and anxious for combat."

Latest Indian News. We have seen the Sangamon Journal of the 19th inst. containing direct news from the seat of war up to the 9th inst. Gen. Atkinson his pursued the Indians until he is satisfied that they have retired beyond his reach, and have cither gone to Canada, retreated to the Chippewa country, beyond the Wisconsin river, or have
totally dispersed. In order to watch their
future movements, Gen. Atkinson, with his
regulars, intend erecting barracks in the Winnebago country, above the "four lakes'"
and continuing there. In consequence of
the scarcity of provisions he has sent a part of his volunteers to Fort Winnebago and a part to Fort Hamilton. The Indians are j thought to have been starved out, as the country around and above the lakes was literally dug up, in search for roots. Many are of opinion that the war is ended, while others suppose the Indians will collect again as soon as they can procure provisions from the wild rice and their corn fields. We have the Galenian of the 11th, but no news. The report which stated that a general battle had been fought, and that a large number of Indians had been killed and taken prisoners, has not been confirmed. Ib. LvsrECTiox of Laxd Offices.
