Seventy-five cents in cash is offered per bushed for wheat at Vevay and this place. Flour is worth $o per barrel and $2 25 per 100. At New York it is worth '$5 75 per barrel, having advanced about 50 cents since the veto. Farmers will soon begin to see what a monstrous calamity General Jackson has bro t upon the country.

Among the laws published in .this sheet, is one for the- benefit of land purchasers, under the credit system. f - For ome time past we have heard the most wrtnderful tales circulating, in relation t TV rsnhv ami the Crawfordsville land of-

Destructive Fire. We learn from Cincinnati that on Sunday night last, the elegant building, well known by the name of the Pearl Street House, was nearly destroyed by fire. The fire broke out near the roof, and before it was arrested, had made great progress dowilwards. Considerable furniture and property was destroyed. No lives were lost. The destruction, is believed to be the work of an incendiary, and is the seventh or eighth attempt lately made to fire the city. The election. The election for members of the lemslature and other ofiicers, took place in the several counties in this state on Monday last. We have received official returns from some and verbal information from others, and so far we are highly pleased with the result, as indicating the strength of the administration in this state. The following counties have been heard from, to wit: Representatives. Switzerland William Bradley. Ripley Wm. Skcene. Franklin John Roop and John Reed. Dccature William Fowler. . Shelby Resin Davis. Marion Robert Hanna. Rush Marinas Willet, (the ether not known.) Union Two Jacksonites namca not known. . Jefferson James H. Cravens and N. B. Palmer. Fayette Marks Crume, (the other not known.) Morgan and Hendricks Both members Jackson. The gain in the counties, just named, in favor of the administration, since last year, is one in Switzerland, two in Union, one in Jefferson, and one in Hendricks; and we have lost one in Franklin. This looks like the. veto was doing a large business. Jaclison. The official statement of the election in this county, is given in this paper, by which it will be seen that George H. Dunn, Oliver Ileustis, and David V. Culley are elected representatives; William Dils sheriff; William Conaicay commissioner; David Poircts seminary trustee, 1st district, Ranna C. Stevens do. 2d district and David Nevitt do. 3d district. The result of the contest, though not altogether in favor of the Jackson nominated ticket, is nevertheless far from discouraging. Enough we believe has been ascertained by ' it, to warrant the firm belief that the Jackson electoral ticket will succeed in this county, at the approaching presidential election, by a majority of from 100 to 200. In this we think there can be no mistake, nor can any one arrive at a different conclusion, from the result of the late election. Take, for instance, the vote for sheriff, and we have a majority of 144; but, if it is objected that this would not bo fair, then take the vote for commissioner, and we have a majority 128 adding the Jackson vote together; but should it still be objected that neither of these is a fair test, why, then take the vote given to the late editor of the Statesman and the editor of this paper, and it gives a majority of 139 in favor of the administration. There is no fair way to calculate a different result. The vote of Old Dearborn may now be considered as settled more favorably to the re-election of Gen. Jackson, man in 182S. Jackson. Wc have received but little information as to the election in Kentucky. In the neighboring county of Boon, John P. Gaines, (Clay,) is elected representative by a majority of 100 votes, over Mr. Phinney, (Jackson.) Buckner, (Clay,) is ahead of Breathett, (Jackson,) for governor. In the city of Louisville, it is believed, the Clay ticket has succeeded. The bank dspsndants took the field there and enacted th$ most disgraceful scenes, completely verifying the prediction that it is a moneyed aristocracy, with Mr. Clay at their head, the republican party have now to contend with. Nor is it in the immediate vicinity of Louisville alone that this influence has fecn exerted, and the ptrsver of the bank

invoked, it has bseh more of leas all ovsr

the country. The Bank question was industriously used in this county at the late election. . The dreadful effects of the veto were depicted in glowing colours at the pons, ana a tnousand evils conjured up to frighten the unsuspecting, and induce them tO abandon the ar1ministtiY.n rvrn heard it boldly proclaimed, by men who Mdua iair as citizens, that they wished the uaim wouia exert her power, and distribute her money to influence the presidential eiecuon: What think you of this? Is it not high time the people" should understand these things, and be preparing for the coming exigency, which is to determine whether democratic principles, pure and unsophistivitu, snail prevail, or be trodden underfoot by the corrupting influence of wealth. The Cholera seems to be fast subsiding in the city of New York. On the 21st ult. the deaths amounted to 104, (as reported by the Courier and Enquirer;) on the 22d to 90, on the 23d to 74, on the 24th to 90, on the 25th to 61, and on the 2Gth to 55. The whole number of cases of the disease in the city, to the 26th, 3239 deaths 1328, The Statesman, of yesterday, in its usual one-sided way, labors to convince its readers, that the veto is ruining Gen. Jackson's prospects in Pennsylvania; and, the better to palm this groundless opinion on them, he gives what he calls extracts from papers on both sides. The Pennsylvania Enquirer is quoted as a Jackson paper, a thing that has always been questioned, and more recently disbelieved altogether. It has never had the confidence or favor of tha Jar.!, party , and by now coming out in its true 1 i . . lAuuurs, u is oniy subserving its own interest. The Patriot and Shield is next quoted as lately a Jackson paper. This is not so the Shield, previous to John Binns's connexion with it, was a neutral paper, but so soon as this celebrated Coflin-hand-bill manufacturer obtained an interest in it, it was so no longer, and only sought a favorable pretext to commence an assault on the president. The other papers quoted have either been neutrals or like the Statesman, have attached themselves to a party that neither wanted nor felt willing to support them, and liuuu uiuir aoanaonrnent. JXone of the old firmly set republican papers of Pennsylvania have disapproved of the veto, much less deserted the president on account of it. We receive weekly a lamo Pennsylvania, and we do know a number of mem to he leading democratic papers, and have yet to see the first one that has abandoned the cause of Gen. Jackson. We claim to know something about the politics of Pennsylvania she is our native state, where we were raised and we say boldly, fearlessly and confidently that nothing but the withdrawal of the president from the contest by the hand of deatli will prevent her from giving him her electoral vote in November. So fully are we persuaded in this opinion, that we are willing to back it at any moment in the Virginia fashion. The Veto on Satin! By way of showing the opinion entertained of the President's veto, we state the fact, that since it has appeared, innumerable applications have been made to have it printed on white satin to preserve it in a frame, as a memento of its worth and efneacy. We have worked it off in this way for many, and will furnish others with it at merely the cost of materials. Pittsburgh Manufacturer. Miserable!!! The Maysville Eagle, says that "bricks fell from five to three dollars a thousand in Cincinnati, in consequence of the Veto!" We learn further (from another quarter) that spoiled bacon is only uaii pnuc in isUHStqucnCC OJ tlie Veto'. Blind horses hzvo fallen too, and two cows died of the hollow horn a few days since, all caused by the Veto. It is a remarkable fact, that we have had no rain "in these parts" since the Veto. The editor has (or had) a four-legged chicken; since the Veto but three legs are visible. Ky. Gazette. Murder. We have to record a transaction unusual in our section of country the perpetration of a. most cruel and wanton murder! John Puryear a planter, living about a mile from this place, shot his ovcS seer on Wednesday last. It seems that Puryear when in his cups was in the habit of abusing his family, and that his overseer, named May, an inoffensive man, had been in the habit of interfering on such occasions. On the day of his death, May, on returning to the house perhaps for his dinner, found his employer intoxicated, and abusing his family lie interfered as usual, spoke to Puryear, begged him to desist, and told him that it was a shame for him to act so Puryear asked him "if he took it up?" stepped into the house took down his rifle and deliberately shot him dead. May has left a wife and 7 or 8 children without a single bequest, save that of tho cold charity of the world. Puryear was, on the evidence of his own daughter, committed to prison, where he now awaits the stern justice of the law. Athens, Geo. Banner. Mr. Clay's Prospect in Ohio. The unpledged electoral ticket, of Ohio (issued by the secret committee,) which is composed of men so verv tvat that it would be an insult for the vulgar people who it is expected will vote for them, to ask who they might in their wisdom deign to make president, is likely to prove recreant! Mr. A'ewcomb has publicly pledged in the Ohio Register that he will, if elected, vote for Wirt and Ellmaker! We have not understood that any of them are for Jack son! but we may judge from this specimen that Clay is "hair hung aud breeze ihaken." Ohio Sun.

LATEST FROM EUROPE. The arrival of the picket shin f oiov at JNew lork, Capt. Graham .W r,,;, the Editors of the Post with hies of London papers to J une loth, and Liverpool to June xuui inclusive. Order is entirely restored in V; ti,q number of persons slain in thf man-",.; is stated at C00, but a correspondent of the jonuon courier thinks that this is too low an estimate, considering thnt In ,.,. the fire was kept up incessantly for about The Paris papers of the 12th June State that the crnvprnmpn J J an order to the Surgeons of the Capital to send in a report of all the wounded persons whom they had attended during the the previous fortnight. The Surgeons have refused to comply with this order declaring that they cannot consent to be degraded into domestic informers, or to betray the confidence of their patients. The English papers contain accounts of preparations for? rejoicing on account of the adoption of the Reform Bill. The progress made in the Scotch and Irish Reform Bills was such that, they were expected to be got through Parliament before that date. The Irish find much fault with the Reform Bill. The populace in Liverpool continue to resist the conveying of patients to the hospital, and riots from that cause are frequent. The London Courier of the 1 1th announces an arrival from Maderia with accounts of the raising of the blockade of that island, under immediate orders from the Azores. The vessel which had maintained it, left on the 25th ult. for Terceria, after taking on board the troops and refugees at Porto Santo. The letters are dated the 20th of May. From this it is inferred that the whole force of Don Pedro is assembling at tho islands lor the purpose of an immediate attack upon Portugal. The Puds bulletin of the Cholera for June 10, states the number of deaths in the hospitals to have been only 3; new cases admitted 8; 8 were discharged as cured. In private practice the deaths on the same day were 5. The Carlist insurrection in the departments of Loire, Inferieure and Deux Sevres is put down. In La Vendee there are yet 1500 Chouans in arms. The Cholera has reappeared in Hamburgh, and Altona with as much violence as on its first breaking out six months previous. The cholera continues on the increase in Liverpool. Melancholy Loss of Life at Sea by Cholera. Tha ship Brutus, of 384 tons burden, sailed on the 18th May from Liverpool for Quebec. She had on hoard 330 emigrants, men, women, and children, who wilh the crew made a grand total of 319 souls. On the 37th, the 9th day out from Liverpool , a healthy man, about 30 years of age, was seized with malignant cholera. The usual remedies were used, and he recovered. The next case was that of an old woman j 60 years of age, who died in ten hours after the attack. The ravages of the pestilence then rapidly increased, tlie deaths being numerous in proportion to the cases. The greatest number of deaths was 21 in one day. The captain had not it seems any intention of returning to port, until the disease began to attack the crew. He then saw that to continue his voyage was to risk the lives of himself and the survivors, as well as the property intrusted to his care. Under these circumstances, his vessel a lazar-house, and men, women and children dying about him, he resolved to put baekyo Liverpool. The resolution was formed on the 3d inst. and the Brutus reached port on Wednesday morning. Up to that day the cases had been 117, the deaths 81, and tho recoveries 3G. Seven cases remained when the vessel entered tiie Mersey, two of which proved fatal in the course of the day, making the total number of deaths S3. Among the suficrers were four of the crew. THE CHOLERA. GOOD NEWS. New-York, July 28. We have again the pleasure ofconwratu lating our fellow citizens upon the renewed evidence that the Pestilence is leaving us. The cases reported yesterday at nineteen less than the dav before, and the deaths nine less. Besides this, the.report of interments by Cholera the best test of the state of the disease exhibits a decrease of ten. The interments from Cholera, during the 24 hours ending at 8 o'clock on Sunday last were Deing ay more than during the same period ending at 8 o'clock yesterday morninu. We are happy to add, that, from the number of new cases received at the principal Cholera Hospitals yesterday afternoon, we are confirmed in the belief that the dreadful disease is rapidly on the decline. Enquirer. A Report. The Pittsburgh Mercury mentions a report that a duel had taken place between Messrs. Benton and Clay, in which the latter was seriously wounded. There is a portion of truth in the rumor; but not in the way in which it was, perhaps, understood. A contest has taken place between the persons named, not in the field, and with powder and balls, but in the Senate Chamber, and with no other weapons than their tongues, and Mr. Clay was not only wounded, but completely floored. New Orleans. Five administration Representatives have been elected in that city to the State Legislature; the sixth is claimed by both parties.

Indian. War! St. Louis ArcrsT 1. DEFEAT OF TIIE INDIANS. By the arrival last night, of the Steamboat Enterprise, from Galena, letters were received in town, giving an acconnt of a battle, that was fought by the Mounted Troops,

under the Command of General Dodge, and the main body of the Indians, after a close pursuit of 100 miles. Tho Indians it appears were making their way towards the Mississippi with the intention of crossing ! but being closely pursued, they were compelled to incline in tho direction of the Wisconsin, with a view of taking refuge on an Island in that river, or of crossing, first the Wisconsin, and thus gain time sufficient to make a safe retreat across the Mississippi. They were however overtaken at the Wisconsin and after an hour's fighting were completely defeated, and no doubt would have been cut to pieces had not tho darkness of the night enabled them to escape. The army is still in pursuit, and from the starved condition of the Indians, they will doubtless be again overtaken. The following letter from General Dod?e to Capt. Loomis will give the particulars of the right. Camp Wisconsin, July 22, 1832. "We met the enemy yesterday near the Wisconsin river, and opposito tho old Sock village after a close pursuit for near 100 miles. Our loss was one man killed and 8 wounded: from the scalps taken by tho Winnebagoes as well as those taken by the whites, and tho Indians carried from the field of battle, we must havo killed about 10 of them. The number of wounded is not known; wo can only judge from the number killed, that many were wounded. From their crippled situation, I think we must overtake them unless they descend tho Wisconsin by water. It you could place a fieldpieco immediately on tho Wisconsin, that would command tlio river, you might prevent their escape by water. General Atkinson will arrive at the Blue Mounds on tho 21th with the regulars and a hrigado of mounted men. I will cross tho Wisconsin to morrow and should the enemy retreat by land, he will propably attempt crossing some twenty miles above Prairio du Chien; in that event tho mounted men would want some boats for the transportation of their arms ammunition and provision. Ifyou could procure for us some Mackinaw boats, in that event, as well as some provision supplies, it would greatly facilitate our views. Excuss great haste. I am with great respect, Your ob't servant (Signed) H. DODGE. Col. Comd'g. Mich. Mounted volunteers. We learn from Mr. Sample of Pekin, who left the army on the 7th inst. that Col. Dunn was unfortunately shot on the morning previous by a seHtinel, when he was on his way as officer of the guard to relieve him. It appears that when Col. D.came in sight, the sentinel was lying in the grass, and that hearing Col. Dunn approach, and supposing him to be an Indian, the senti nel arose and fired. Two balls entered the body of Col. Dunn near the groin and lodged in the abdomen, It was supposed that the wound was mortal. Col. Dunn was ever esteemed a most estimable citizen. Later accounts say that Col. Dunn was likely to recover. Ho arrived at Dixon's Ferry several days since; and the surgeon of that post told our in formant that he (Col. D.) was doing we'l Illinois paper. Great movement of the people. Wc publish in our paper tho proceedings of the great meeting of tho democratic republicans of this city and vicinity, which assembled at Concert Hall on Tuesday evening last, 'for the purposes of expressing their opinions on the subject of the veto. As soon as the hour of mccthvr nrrlvr.l il people assembled in front of tho court house wcie it was ascertained that the use of the court house had been refused bytho county commissioners, for reasons best known to themselves, who are all opposed to the present administration and to the veto of the President. The people then adjourned to the Concert Hall, where an immense concourse of from ten to fifteen hundred, of the 'bone and muscle7 of the city assembled. So great was the assemblage, that the lare and spacious 'Hall,' was literally packed, and we understand (for wo were in the 'hall') that the rooms, the yard and even street in front, were crowded to excess. Resolutions were then almost unanimously passed approving of tho president's veto, and expressive of high admiration of the - 1 A I .

Mutiny in Maine State. days since, the officers of the Stato Prison : it: r i , . hi nxuiu tTcm imormeu by one of the convicts, that about twenty nftti nr;nura hA formed a plan to rush out, when they had done work for the day, armed with sledges and hammers, and while some were making their way through the yard fence, the others were to gain the walk on the other side of the fence, attnrk tho mi ird the guard, and defend themselves until they could escape. On tho evening when it was . , . . . j .. i ii i i unucisiuuu me pian was io ue put into execution, the warden, with a nnmlmr .f ti, er with muskets and rifles, prepared for the

occasion concealed ilicrw-iflvrs in the guard houso and awaited the attack. When the Prison Horn sounded, in.-tfad of dropping their hammers ns usual, and as they were commanded to do bv one of tho orhcers, who had tho hardihood 'to go among them as usual, they formed themselves into a band and rushed towards tho barrier with the utmost fury, brandishing their sledges, apparently resolved to execute their purpose at any risk. At this crisis tho warden ami his party discovered thcmselTes, presented their arms and ordered them to stop. They were so completely surprised that they obeyed instantly ami ranged themselves upon the steps that led to tho prison, as dircc ted, except Jones, who stood and openly defied the warden and dared him tofiro. Mr, Millc gave him time for reflection, and assured him he would shoot him if ho did not comply, and accordingly discharged his piece at him loaded with two balls, both of which took etfect, one passing thrqugh each log, below the knee, without breaking the boue. Tho desperate villain sustained himself a few moments and then fell. Hia associates, alarmed at the fate of their leader, now sued for mercy, and were marched to tho Prison and locked up in their cells. Jones's spirit was still unconquercd, and it was not till the Surgeon, Dr. Ludwing, remarked fur tho purjKso of seeing the etlVct, that ho would bo obliged to havo both W

amputated, that his stern soirit vieldod. nn.l he burst into tears. His wounds were dres sed, and ho is doing well. Salem Mercury. From the Wilmington (.) Gazette. The irascible temper displayed by Mr. Clay, during the session of Congress which has just closed, is a sura evidence of his incompetency to fill the office of President of these United btates. In the course of this lession, he has quarrelled with almost every ono who has dared to oppose him in any and every measure which has been brought before the house of which he is a member. His temper has been obviously displayed in his attacks upon General Smith, Mr. Tazewell, Mr. Wilkins, and other members of the Senate, who havo not failed to serve him a dish which, no doubt, was quite unpalatable tohim-, but Mr. Benton at length brought him to the length of his tether, by one of the most powerful and cutting speeches ever delivered; a few extrac's of which will be found in another column, togeth er with the windy tirades of Mr. Clay, After reading these several extract from Mr. Clay's attack upon Mr. Benton and the President, r:o me, we think, can look upon him as a man capable of filling the nfficb to which he aspires.
