REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS. FOR GOVERNOR, JAMS & RE A. FOR LIEUT. GOVERNOR, BAVHB V. CU1L1L1EY.

Injustice to our citizens, and for the character of bur village, we feel ourselves called upon to correct the misapprehensions that have gone abroad, inconsequence of the mysterious conduct of a citizen of bur county. On this day two weeks ago, ho left this place without any seeming cause, and unknown to his family or neighbors, and too!: with him some 5 or 600 dollars, which led to the supposition that he had "been murdered and robbed of his money; an ineffectual search for two days was the consequence. These circumstances gave birth to the various rumors afloat calculated to prejudice the moral character of this community. We are happy however to have it in our power to state, that the lost man is found he returned on last Wednesday night to the

representative capacity, lhe delegates assembled,

acting under the responsibility of their obligations to

their constituents must and will forego private pre

ferences and predilections, and cast their votes upon the man best calculated to subserve the public interests. They are not, when appointed, as they always are, by the people, obnoxious to the charge of being leaders, or dictators they are in fact tlie servants; the legitimate agents of the people, and virtually, they are the people themselves. They may be instructed by them and having certain specified powers delegated to them, they must confine their action within the pale of their instructions. If, then, there is any thing dictatorial in this, we are unable to discern it, except that dictation which emanates from the people and we presume no man will be found sufficiently reckless to deny to tho people the right to 'dictate for themselves. This mode of bringing forward men for public stations bears date -with the origin of our institutions. New-York and Pennsylvania resort to this mode the Eastern States practice it, and why not the Western States also If the people would turn their attention to this plan, they would be less annoyed by demagogues, and wc would have men in office better qualified for the discharge of duties consequent upon their election to high and responsible Etations. We should seek for men to fill the public offices who are qualified men tn'irerit and few such will be found to announce themselves as candidates; their modesty forbids them. If we would ii.ave competent and faithful public servants, we must select men who would, with a modest ditfidence, agree to accept such trusts as the public may feel disposed to confide to them. To effect these objects then, ii is alone necessary for the people to convene in the smaller districts and

"electfrom their body a representative, and instruct him as to their views, if necessary, and that repre

sentative, as in duty bound, will represent the voice

of that assemblage. In this manner was the late convention gotten up, and the people are entirely re

conciled to the proceedings of that body they are

determined to support the candidates of their own selection. It is their manifest disposition, every

where in the State, to do so, that causes such alarm, and excites such consternation in the enemy's camp;

and not the dangerous tendency of the principle in

volved in the Convention system, about whicli they are so very clamorous, and orate so fluentlv.

They have not dared to deny the principle in full; they know that to do so would be to thwart their own views they are morally certain that the conflicting claims of the remnants of the sundry parties that bow compose the opposition, will ultimately have to be settled by some such procedure. We speak in reference to the great question of the succession, which, in this case, they wish to fold in the garment. If the principle holds good in one case, it must in all cases. If it is proper to hold a National convention, it is no less so to hold a State, or County convention! .We believe in the whole system and we abhor precept without example.

tlie stockholders. I lie President is selected by the Board of Directors of the Branches, and is one of their number. The dividends of the Branches are declared upon their respective operations by the Parent Board, and to be paid to each Branch

accordingly. The several Branches are responsible for the payment of any loss occasioned by the failure of any Branch in one year, the debts on such failing Branch bearing an interest of 12 per

cent. Tor the payment of her stock in the' Bank and

to enable her to make the loan to citizen stockholders for the payment of the 2d and 3d instalments on their stock, the state is to negotiate a . loan of one million three hundred thousand dollars for 20 or 25 years, at an interest of 5 per cent., if the whole number of Branches should org-mize; if there should not be that number then the loan is to be in proportion to the number of Branch is organized according to the foregoing provisions. A sinking Fund is created, consisting of the un

applied balance of all loans on the part of ihe ttUe, made for tho purpose of paying for the state stock in the Bank or for paying the instalments of the stockholders, tho dividends of the state stock in the Bank, &c, and the principal and interest of the loans that shall be made to stockholders as aforesaid as the same shall be paid in. This fund is under tho direction of the President and Directors on the part of the state in the State Bank, w ho are styled the Commisioners of the Sinking Fund. It is made the duty ofsaid Board to see to the payment of the interest on the state loan, and for this purpose they have the right to require the services of the Bank free of charge. Tlie Board is to loan all the moneys belonging to said fund at the same rate of interest, and for a like time, and under similar provisions as are required by the several acts now in force regulating the loaning of the Seminary funds. This fund is pledged for the payment of the state loans made for the purpose of purchas

ing the state stocks in Bank and for loans to stockholders, the interest threon, and incidental expenses'. The residue of said fund to be a permanent one for the porpose of education, under such provisions as the Legislature may hereafter prescribe. Indiana Journal.

fordsville, was, on Monday afiernoon, discussed at considerable length in committee of the whole, and, judging from lhe indications then afforded, it would seem probable that it may piss the House. On yesterday, the cemmittee of Ways and Means reported a bill abolishing the office of Agent of the 3 per cent, fund, when the term of tho present

Agent shall have expired, and devolving the duties of that officer on the Treasurer of State. Two propositions to change the present mode of electing Prosecuting Attomies one of which provides for their appointment by the Governor and Senate, and the other for th eir election by tho people wero yesterday the subjects of discuss:on. The first proposition having been advocated by Mr. Biggkr, and opposed by Messrs. Steele and Vax-

deveer, was negatived by large majority. The question next being on so amending tlie law as to have the elections made by the people, Messrs. Smith of Fayette, Willet, and Huntington, all of whom had voted for vesting the appointment in

the Governor, preferred giving the election to lhe people rather than to continue it in the Legislature. Mr. Evaxs and Mr. Carter also gave their views in favor of a change. Mr. Thomtson spoke against the change. Mr. Brown of L. moved to postpone indefinitely the whole subject, which motion was decided in the negative by a largo majority. Before any further question was taken the House adjourned till 3 o'clock. The select committee, appointed by both Hnus-

cs on so much of the Governor's message as relates

to a State Bank, having been in conference several days, and having freely interchanged opinions on the subiccfjhave, we understand, agreed upon the provisions of a bill, and appointed gentlemen to draft it. It is probable therefore that a bill will be reported in the course of a few days, and we shall soon afterwards, probably, be able to give some guess as to the final disposition of the measure. P. S. In the afternoon of yesterday, lhe sub-

jject of changing the mode of electing Prosecuting

Atlorriies was again taken up, and a desultory debate took place on the various propositions, in which Messrs. Crump, Thompson, Steele, and Bigger participated.
