From the N Y Standardi Exlra. JACKSON INJUAINE. We copy the following from the Wiscaset Intelligencer. The prospect of the Clay party in Maine is truly flattering. The recent elections in Kentucky, Indiana, Missouri and Maine, not forgetting Anti-masonic Vermont, doubtful Rhode Island, and uncertain Louisiana, must, politically speaking reduce United States Bank stock below zero. "We turn with pleasure to the political prospects through the State." Considering the exertions of the opposition, with their State,. County, Town, and School District Committees their base and infernal lies their U. S. Bank money, which has been brought to bear on the election, we can claim our triumph as a great one. It is a triumph of the people IT IS A TRIUMPH OF PRINCIPLE OVER CO-CORRUPTION LQ And in November, the very hills of Maine will resound with praises to Jackson and his U. S. Bank Veto for putting down that usurping institution, whose funds are employed to nunc, yes, bribe the voters of our counFrom returns received, we believe the majority for Governor will be over FOUR THOUSAND! We have elected Senators in York, Cumberland, Oxford, Penobscot, Waldo, Hancock upper district for a certainty, and probably in all the other counties except Kennebec, Lincoln, and possibly Somerset. This is the State that has been put down

as doubtful! When Andrew Jackson's name comes directly before the people of Maine, we 'will show them a FEW, at least, of our doubtful votes. We will show them TEN THOUSAND majority for "the man tvho has filled the measure of his country's glory." . Bribery and Corruption. The list of loans by the U S. Bank to members of Congress, reported by the Committee of Investigation, and ordered to be printed by the House, was withdrawn by some means not yet publicly known. We are assured that the following items amon"1 othcrs appeared on that list : Senator J. S. Johnson of Louisiana, for a term cf years, $36,000 Senator D. Webster, at Boston, $22,000 Ditto, atPhilad. 10,000 32,000 John G. WatmciTgh, Rep. from Philad. 1,700 And we are assured from a source on which the most undoubted reliance may be placed, that since the Committee of Investigation closed their laborsj the -following loans have been made by the U. S. Bank: S. P . Carson, of N. C. endorsed by Senator Poindexter & N. Towson $14 or 15.GC0 Henry Daniel, cf Ky. and Warren R. Davis, of S C. on two notes, 7,500 Daniel Webster, at Philadelphia, on his way home, making in the whole to Daniel Webster, 42,000 C. A. Wickliffc has been appointed,by the Bank,' agent for collections in Kentucky, with a compensation which will probably amount to at least ten thousand dollars per year U. S.

And this is only a part of what has come to light 1 Senator Johnson is a rich southern nabob, and an extensive cultivator of Sugar in Louisiana.. He is an ultra tariff man, by which he taxes the western people three cents per pound on their sugar but cf which tax he can well afford to pay bank'accommodations, and yet make enormous profit enalcr Webster is an ultra tariff nabob of; Lie east, lie is largely interested in woolIcR.manufactures, and out of the enhanced price which the consumer must pay in con sequence of the high tariff, he also can well afford to pay interest on large bank accommodation?. It should be recollected that Mr. Webster in 1816, like Mr. Clay in 1811, was violently opposed to a national bank, and voted against the present charter in 1316. S. P. Carson, cf N. C. was hostile to the bank. . A fe days previous to the final question being taken, he obtained a loan cf 11 or ,915,900 he r.skcd for leave of atKncc,- des-rtcd his post, and went home. Henry Daniel, cf Kentucky, had been a violent and no:sy opponent of the bank. Warren K. Davip. of S. C. was also opposed to it. By some means Mr. Daniel was induced to vote for the bill. W. R. Davis did not vote against it. While the bill was be- i ijre the President, and before the veto, these ;w.) representatives went to Philadelphia, and obtained ,$7,500 ftom the Bank. At the last Congressional election in Kentucky, when the U. S. Bank at Louisville opposed and nearly defeated C. A. WicklXfe, lie declared that when a new char- . tcr w.-.s applied for, he would move an the

amendment that the bank should not be a candidate for Congress. The Bank looks higher, and now aspires to the Presidency yet the Hon. Mr. Wicklifle did not redeem his pledge. He complained in. the II. It. during the early part of the session, that he had been charged in Ohio with being opposed to the Administration and with having been bought up by the .Bank. He took care not to deny the truth of the charge which was subsequently proven to be true, by his general course in Congress, and by voting for the Bank, which he had previously denounced. He has been rewarded for his apostacy by a lucrative appointment from the Bank in Kentucky. While the Bank, evidently for political effect in the West, is calling in her debts and refusing loans on good paper to merchants and traders, who need a few hundred dollars for the convenient transactions of their business, she is thus lavishing money at the rate often, fifteen, twenty, thirty and fifty thousand dollars, each, on venal members of Congress and unprincipled apostate editors. Denying small favors to those opposed to the monopoly, and paying any sum to those who will advocate it. As if determined to force those into her support she cannot purchase. The honest democracy of the country, the Farmers, Mechanics and Traders of the West, will not fail to perceive the motives of this odious and dangerous monied monopoly, and will rally in support of the Man of the People, who has had the moral courage, the fearless honesty, and the devoted patriotism to put his foot upon the neck of the monster. Nat. Republican.

From the Fayetteville Observer. Charleston. Some of the most extraordinary outrages have recently been brought to light in Charleston, that were ever committed upon civilized society. They so surpass all that we could have imagined in a community like that, that we would not credit them, if they did not come confirmed by the statements upon oath of individuals of both parties, and all ranks m life. I It appears that for some weeks previous to the late election, each party kept what are called open houses, that is, large four story brick houses, in the centre of the City, in which were provided refreshments of all kinds, free to all persons, and which it appears upon oath, were kept open during the whole of Saturday night; whilst haranguing, &,c, were carried on without regard to the Sabbath. On Sunday morning, a man named Staunton was found dead in front of one of the houses of the Union party, and the Coroner's Inquest being held, a verdict was rendered, that he came to his death by falling from a window of one of the upper stories of the house, in attempting to escape from confinement in which he was held by the Union party. The extraordinary fact was then disclosed, and has been placed beyond all doubt by the concurrent testimony of persons of both parties, that at this and at previous elections, private places have been provided in which such persons as could be decoyed or forced into them, have been confined for several days previous to the election, to prevent their voting '. Some of these were plied with brandy, mixed with laudanum, and some gagged! to prevent their making a noise : Men nave even been dragged from their beds, gagged, and carried to these places of confinement. The death of Staunton appears to have produced considerable excitement, and probably brought the parties a little to their senses ; for on the same afternoon (Sunday) a meeting of the Union party was held, at which it was solemnly resolved, to despatch ! an envoy to the State Rights party, to propose an exchange of all prisoners held by either party! The Courier announces the result of this mission as follows: "We are happy to learn that the Central Committee of the State Rights and Free Trade Party have acceded to the proposal of the Central Committee of the Union and State Rights Party, that all locked up houses shall be discharged of their unwilling tenants.' liiese things certainly surpass in enormity any tiling that we ever heard of in any coun try, not under the dominion cf the destcstable Inquisition. How long shall such things be? Is there not influence enough among the Hayncs, the Dray tons, the Pinckneys, the Hugers, the Peligrues, the great and virtuous men with which the city abounds, to put a stop to such horrible doings? If there is, let it be brought into action, promptly and energetically, before yet more deplorable consequences result. Another election takes place in October, for members of the Legislature: auain during the winter for j members cf Congress; and perhaps yet again j for Delegates to the proposed State Conven tion. Let the citizens reflect to what a condition they will be brought before these exciting occasions shall have passed, if every exertion be not made at once to put down such outrages. If careless of the consequences among themselves, let them be ware of its tffect upon their credit and character abroad. Prime, Ward, King fc Co. of New-York, for Baring, Brothers &. Co. of London, the largest proprietors in the Bank of the United States, have negotiated a loan of $7,000,000 to the State of Louisiana. We quote this tact, from the Journal of Commerce, to show

the absurdity of the opinion that the refusal to re-charter the Bank of the United States will diminish the quantity of money in the country. Here is a single loan amounting to very near the whole amount of stock owned by foreigners in the institution.

Any person who will reflect for one moment upon the subject will perceive, that while the market in this country will admit of negotiations from abroad, foreign capital will be employed, and that this depends upon circumstances and causes wholly unconnected with the Bank of the United States. It seems to be overlooked, ihat the Bank is sunply the agent by which this capital, for eign and domestic, is operated, and that the result of closing its concerns is a smple transfer of its capital through other channels of investment, Halt. Republican. From the New Hampshire Patriot. Twenty-three reasons why Henry Clay should not be elected President. 1. Because he sold the vote of the West in 1825 to Mr. Adams for the office of Secretary of State. 2. Because he exhibited himself in the character of a bully, by challenging "honest George Kremer, and when his challenge was accepted, he had not the courage to fight him." 3. Because, when holding the second office in the nation, he challenged and fought a Senator for words spoken in debate. 4. Because he recommended in Mr. Adams' administration the Quixotic mission to Panama. 5. Because he prayed for "war, pestilence and famine," in preference to the election of Gen. Jackson. 6. Because of his consistency in opposing the United States bank in 181 1, as "unconstitutional, monarchical, monopolizing, corrupting and inexpedient," and being undecided at Cincinnati in 1830, and in favor of it in 1831, after having received fees to the amount of $30,000. 7. Because he sought a seat in the United States Senate after he had induced his friends to nominate him a candidate for the Presidency, and then disgraced himself and station by his billingsgate abuse of the President and the best men of the nation. 8; Because he is opposed to any adjustment of the tariff, for when that question is settled he knows he has no hopes of success for the Presidency. 9. Because he says the President should march an army into Georgia, and open the doors of the Georgia State Prison, if they wade in the blood of the Georgians, striving thereby to excite a civil war. 10. Because he encourages for the same purpose the nullifiers of the South. 11. Because he and his party supported a nullifier anti-tariff man for President of the Senate, showing thereby their sincere attachment from principle to the Union and the tariff. 12. Because, if elected, their will be a division of the Union before his term expires. 13. Because, he showed the petulence of a school-boy, and the rage of a madman, in the Senate last winter, by brutal and malicious assaults upon men better than himself. 14. Because if elected, embezzlers, peculators, defaulters and Toby Watkins men will all be restored to office, and again live on the plunder of the treasury. 15. Because he will reinstate the old federal party in office and adopt their principles. 10. Because when Secretary of State he appointed the King of the Netherlands to decide the Maine boundary question, and then assailed the President in vulgar invective for asking the Senate's advice about the decision of his own Arbitrator. , 17. Because, after the President, to his knowledge had declined to appoint a national fast on constitutional grounds, lie had the meanness to introduce a resolution into the Senate calling upon him to appoint one, that he might, as he said, be accused of versatility and inconsistency if he did, and a neglect of the wishes of Congress and institutions of religion, if he did not. 18. Because he declares that the States are not "sovereign and independent," but mere local provinces, subject to the general government. 10. Because he contends that the people of one section of the country should be taxed to build roads and canals for another. 20. Because he wishes to destroy all foreign commerce. 21. Because he is opposed to masonry when with anti-masons, and in favor of it when with the masons. 22. Because he is ungovernable in his temper and vindictive in his feelings. 23. Because, as Timothy Fuller, a late

member of Congress from Massachusetts, says, "he spends his days at the gamingtable, and his'nights in a brothel." We are sorry to hear of the death of Commodore Charles B. Thompson, at the Hot Springs, in Viruinm. He had been in ill health for a long time, having brought this disease with him, several months ago, from the Pacific, where lie was in command of the U. S. squandron for two or three years. A'ational Intelligencer,

The steamboat Winnebago, Capt Hunt, from Galena, stopped for a few minutes yesterday at Jefferson Barracks (ten miles below the city.) The boat left Galena, having on board Black Hawk, the Prophet, and eleven other head men of the Sacs and Foxes, together with about fifty warriors of less distinguished fame. The latter were landed on this side of the Lower Rapids on their pledge of remaining quiet and inoffensive. Black Hawk, the Prophet, and the other eleven have been taken to Jefferson Barracks, there to remain as hostages for the peaceable conduct of their tribes, until a final settlement cf all difficulties shall be made. A Mackinaw boat passed the city on Thursday on her way to the Barracks, with fi vc men under the command of Lieut. Cross of the army, having with them in custody Neopopo and some six or seven other warriors. We understand that Black Hawk and the Prophet were captured by a party of Winnebagoes, and by them delivered to the Agent at the Prairie. These two Chiefs were not taken together, although they were delivered up to the whites at the same time. The Winnebago did not land at Rock Island, the Captain having pledged himself to that effect to his passengers ; but we deeply regret to be obliged to say that the boat brings very distressing intelligence of sickness on the Island amongst the U. States troops. Dr. Coleman and Licuts. Gale and Torrance, of the army, had fallen victims to the prevailing epidemic, together with a number of private soldiers. Oar other, officer was dangerously ill. The disease, it is said by passengers on the boat, was subsiding, and hopes were entertained of its speedy disappearance. Four men, (soldiers) and a servant boy, died on the passage in the boat under the command of Lieutenant Cress. From the Missouri ttepublican, Spt. S The curiosity of distant readers may, perhaps, be gratified, by some insight into tho characters of the chiefs who have acted such conspicuous parts in our border warfare. Black Hawk is represented to us as beir.cr sixtv-five or seventy years of aceinfirm of! body, and imbecile in mind. JNeither his physiognomy nor his actions give any indi cation of talent or of tact. The Prophet is a man of different character. He is a fine looking fellow; fearless in his movements and actions; and

King bury, on board the steamboat Warrior, it is not true, as stated, tint "Black Hawk twica approached the boat with a white flag, wading into the water for that purpose." short time after the firing commenced, a boy, having in his hand a white flig, was seen to enter the water; he had scarcely waded three yards from the shore, beforo he-was pursued by some more daring pirit of his band, and dragged back, in i manner to show his indignation at the act. The statement as made in the Republican, is calculated to throw cens ure on the highly worthy officer in command of tho detachment, cs well as on several others who acted with him, and whose humane and honorable feelings, under any state cf excitement whatever, would not suffer them to violate tho neutrality which such a demonstration, even from a pavacu foe, is calculated to inspire. Unless we are very much deceived in tho ; Indian character, there is another t n or iivtho sime article respecting tha rnergits of liiacii uawK.'-bo ur Irorn lc lievmg 1. 111 "infirm of body, and imbecile in mind,1' wo must regard him, even at his advanced age, as a warrior of great powers; commanding, by the eloquence and fluency of his harangues, the unlimited confidence of his band. It is more than probable, that the unlooked for termination of his lato mad caret r, combined with tho fitiguo nr.d miffciing ho has undergone and witnersed among his people, may have csst a gloom over his onco stem and savage features, and dimmed tho firo of his eye; but give him his liberty, and tho force wherewith tD resist, and wo hesitate not to say, that notwithstanding all his seeming infirmity and imbecility, ho will prove himself worthy of his race, "souls rnado of fire, children of the sun, with whom revenge is virtue." We believe we arc al?o correct in paying, that the Prophet was not the leader of tho party which attacked and murdered Mr. Ht. Vrain, rgent for the Sacs. A PERILOUS SITUATION. A correspondent of the Rochester Oh. server, relates the following account of a wonderful escape from almost certain destruction: . Mr. Editor I lnd just arrived at the Falls of Niagara, on Monday of last week, when a canal boat was discovered to be floating down in tho centre of tho liver, ' probably two miles above tho cataract. It was soon discovered that there were persons on board, who gave evidence of distress and alarm. . The facts, r.s obtained by th writer from two persons 011 board, were very nearly as follows: " : ., The boat belonged to the Welland Cannl, had received freight from the Canada shore, two or three miles above the falls, and wa towed up by a. bono on tho. phore. Thj. .Master of tho boat, Capt. Coon, was sick on board, and entirely unabla to take any charge ofher. The management was entrusted to another man, a boy of 17 years old, and a young woman of the came age. From somo deficiency in attaching the tow ropo to tho horse it gave way, when the beat wes about three miles above the falls. . They soon discovered that they wove not only Jloating f;;st from the shore, but rapidly downwards. They could not reach bottom with their setting poles, and had no moans of making :i succt s?ful effort to reach the shore. Consternation seized the crew, a3 they saw on the one hand the American shore, at the distance of two miles, Mid on the other tho Canada shore, at the distance of one mile, fast. receding; and a mile and a half below, they saw rising tho rnioke of ihu dreadful cataract, v.hieh they of one record" had now concluded would form their common grave. All was excitement nothing was done, nor could be done with hopoE of succors; till ct last, the man the only eff cie.U hand in the management of the boat; concluded to make one exertion to sac himself I plunged ovejboard and swan; for t!it Cantdi, shore one mile distant, taking a diagonal' course downwards, hoping to l.uid above thr falls.
