From the Wabash Courier. THE NEXT LEGISLATURE Will be the most important convened since the formation of our State Constitution. Questions involving the future prosperity of Indiana her res; pectability, her wealth, and influence in the Union will then be discussed and decided. We have no reference to party views, because however mere politicans may be supposed to act in such pursuits, restraints will be imposed which they dare not disregard, unless at the peril of their political existence. We now speak of the. Internal Policy of Indiana that which concerns herself, and before which, we hope and trust, party madness will never throw its shadow. The spirit already awakened on the subject of internal communication in favor of canals, railways, turnpike roads, &c. is fast extending, and a spirit of generous emulation manifested in every section of our young and flourishing State. Tho miserable policy of creeping- along- the high road to prosperity is abandoned by the People themselves, and it will be strange, indeed, if their servants in thc Legislature should jog on at their old gait, deaf to the general voice. Let the several counties send safe, prudent, and public spirited individuals to represent them in the next General Assembly individuals who have the genius to plan and the manliness to execute those designs of public improvement bo indispensable to Indiana and her citizens. If there are tides in the affairs of individuals, so there are in the domestic policy of States; and it behooves the public men to look well to them. The extension the Wabash and Ere Canal the commencement of the White. Water Canal a rail road thro' the center of the State to a point on the Ohio river are some of the works which seem of the first importance. Others equally important, no doubt, will be presented, and when urged, and their utility tested, will share equally the good wishes of this section of the State. For oursclf, we sincerely hope the miserable system of log-rolling , heretofore too much practised, will be abandoned, and that works of established importance will be permitted to stand on their own merits, divested of every weight calculated to retard the action of tho State Legislature. This purpose, if we all unite, can and will be accomplished, and the two-pen nt politicians w ith which our Legislatures have been heretofore cursed, will find their proper level the level where the want of talents, the want of liberal feeling, and the want of enlarged and statesmanlike views, should have long since consigned them. In tho first place, the public Press should do its duty, because, if properly directed, it can do an important service to the cause of correct thinking. Our public men should do

their part, and by urging with zeal life importance of enlightened legislation, prepare the way of the more timid, whose duty it may be to act in this matter. The stupid cry that the People are opposed to such a system, might do a few years since, but it has lost its charm, and wilLno longei answer the purpose of legislative drones. In New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, the same song was sung by the opponents of the canal policy but it availed them nothing. These great States are now reaping a ricli harvest, the fruits of wise legislation. In Indiana, the same cry was raised against the State Bank project, three years ago, when the Editor of the Courier had the honor of first advocating a charter. Ho

was told that thc People were opposed to any such measure that public opinion was not ripe for such an institution, and that no State Bank charter would be passed by the Legislature. But the ball was in motion the public press, to some extent, spoke out the People themselves held up their hand in its favor the timid received confidence tho wavering were settled the result is known. So it will be with a judicious system of improvement by State authority. The cry of opposition is weak, we know; but it will be kept up till lost in the great cataract of voices which must swell the triumph of this cause. Let every friend of such a system make himself heard, and its success is certain.

From the N. Y. Evening Star. BREACH OF MARRIAGE PROMISE. The Circuit court has been crowded for a day or two past to hear a singular trial, bro't by a gentleman against a lady, for a breach of a promise of

to recover damages from the husband.

A woman may have just cause of acting against the perfidy of a man, because her sex exposes her to injuries of feeling and prospect from his infidelity, which leaves her no other redress than an appeal to laws; but this rule cannot work both ways. The sensibility and defenceless condition of a man thus jilted, will not authorize him to seek damages out of tho pockets of the successful suitor. Besides jilting a man is every day he laughs it off, and goes on with another and a more successful suit. Not so a poor girl, who has been cheated by a trifling fop, she had no redress but in tears and privacy. When, however, a lady asks a gentleman to release her from a promise of marriage, lie should do it promptly and gracefully, regret his own sad loss, and wish every happiness to the fickle fair one.

notwithstanding this opinion, the jury gave $1

Fron the Ohio Farmer. -Giant or long Scotch Cabbage.- -Mr. Msdabyt I do not recollect of seeing any of thin variety of cabbage for the last 40 years but in my youth I saw it and have often thought it would be a profitable crop for those who keep large flocks of sheep, especially in Ohio, Illinois, 3Iissouri, Acc. as it will stand their winters and yields a large supply of green food during the winter with little expense. In my youth a relative of mine on Long Island had a rabbit warren. A sandy hill about fifty feet high, and covered about an acre. Around this hill a ditch was cut, eighteen inches deep, one foot wide, in which palisades were set end wide so as to make close fence about 8 feet high, in which were kept about 1,000 English rabbits. Adjoining his warren, an acre of ground was taken in and planted yearly with that kind of cabbage. The heads were at least four feet long, and two in diameter, weighing from thirty to forty pounds, and in winter two of these heads of cabbage night and morning, with a little hay, fed the whole warren, which was said to be a profitable concern, as the rabbits brought twenty-five cents per brace in New York market, and the skins eighteen and three fourths making forty-four and three fourths the pair. This cabbage I think may be cultivated to advantage for sheep, especially where the winters are mild. Yours, TYRO.

"Love in the TUB, and the bottom fell oi." The Troy Press contains a sketch of a trial in that place lately of a case wherein the 'plaintiff, -Mary A. Tubbs, a young lady of twenty-one years of age, brought an action against David Harris" for a breach of marriage promise. The damages were laid at $1000. A good deal of evidence was introduced to prove the engagement between the parties and one circumstance we will relate for the particular benefit of young men who ought to be on their guard, lest they should find themselves "engaged' before they are aware "towards thc latter part of the time when he was in the habit of visiting the plaintiff, he called her by the Christian name, (Mary) whereas at first he called her by the more formal appellation of JIiss Tubbs!' The Jury were convinced by this and other testimony that the plaintiff had been ill treated by the defendant, who had subsequently married a young girl only sixteen years of age, and returned a verdict of 500 damages.

Vc had hoped that all further difficulties in regard to tho boundary question, had been settled; and that we would not have been again called upon to notice proceedings of a character so disreputable as those which were recently witnessed upon the disputed territory. In this, however, we have been mistaken. Toledo, it seems, has again been the scene of tumult. We are not fully advised of thc particulars of these outrages. We learn from various sources, however, that Mr. Joseph Wood the Deputy Sheriff of Monroe County, in serving a process, or in attempting to take Two Stickney, was dirked by the latter. Thc wound, for a time, it was thought, would prove mortal; but hopes are now entertained, we believe, of his recovery. As a matter of course, there are always two sides to a transaction of this kind. The following account of the affair, extracted from the Monroe Sentinel, is the Michigan version. The Acting Governor of the Territory has offered a reward of $5000 for tho apprehension of Stickney. Cleveland Ih rald, July 2H. Trouble at Toledo. One day last week, Truman Heminway, a Michigan constable of the township of Port Lawrence, was knocked down in the vilof Toledo, by some of the advocates of Ohio of that place, in attempting to make sale of some property: We Understand the matter was not a question of boundary jurisdiction, but grew in some measure out of an excitement about the validity of the judgment for which the property was seized. It becomes our duty to notice a much more painful and alarming circumstance. Mr. Joseph Wood, a Dpjty Sheriff of our county, proceeded to Toledo ou Wednesday of the present week fir the purpose of serving process upon some individuals there he laid his hands upon Two Stickney , (a son of the redoubtable Major,) who drew a dirk-knife and thrust it into the left side of Mr. Wood; but we are happy to state, that although at first it was- supposed the wound must prove fas it was no doubt intended! fa

tal, he is in a fair way of recovery. Stickney goes armed, and declares he will not he taken alive; and we understand generally that the Toledo warriors go armed, and threaten destruction to all who may venture to approach them, by virtue of the authorities of Michigan. Our citizens are of course considerably incensed; but it is hicdilv creditable to

them, that they have ventured upon no measures of retaliation knowing that punishment for every violation of the law, though slow must necessarily be sure.

The CRors. In this vicinity tho wheat crop is not so srood as usual. There is a prospect of an unusually fine crop of corn. As far as wo have heard, the crops in other sections of the country are quite plentiful. The Belvidere (N. J.) A polio says that, in that State, they are remarkably fine. Madison Republican. The Virginia Free Press, published in the neighborhood of Harper's Ferry, says: "The wheat in this part of tho country is filed in an astonishing manner. The heads are much

longer than usual, they contain a great number of tiers, and the grains are larger. Wre have just had the curiosity to measure a head, plucked from a field of Mr. W, W. Lane's and findt to be seven inches in length. We have not taken time to count the grains, but we hear that some heads contain ISO." The Wilmington (Delaware) Journal, says: "The wheat harvest is going on in this vicinity and we understand will show a good crop. The corn and oats promise abundantly. After all the evil forebodings on this subject, it will be seen by our extracts from papers, north and south, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina, that there is reason to anticipate a good average crop throughout thc country.'

Boston and Worcester Rail Road. This road was opened on the 6th inst. wiih rnuch ceremony. The distance is 42 milos, nnd was made in three hours. Many guests were invited and, having arrived at Worcester, n procession of more ihan GOO persons was formed, escorted by a light infantry company and a band of music, to a collation prepared for them. Several speeches were delivered, and some excellent sentiments offered as for instance : By John Davis, late governor. Hail roads Tne people will bear to be rode, and hardly rode, by such monopolies.. Edtcard Everett The march of capital and enterprise May it go hand in hand with the march of intellect and morals, and result in the increased prosperity and virtue of the people. Col. Fessenden, chief engineer, was then called upon. His sentiment was as follows: The fourth nf July 177 G when we made ourselves independent of asses; and the fourth of July 1835, when we made ourselves independent of horses. The fallowing is the speech and toast of Mr. Tlenry Williams, one of the directors, copied from the Boston GazeMe ; Mr. President On this happy occasion, I have a few words to offer. I congratulate vou, sir, and all the friends

of the Boston nnd Worc"?tr rail road, that wo this day witness and realize the fnjl and happy completion of our enterprise. I shall be brief ni my remarks, but with reference to a sentiment I propose to offer, I foel that it is proper to say a few plain things, to descant upon some truths that ought not to be overlooked and out of mind on this glorious occasion. They may not be palatable to all,

but nevertheless they are just and true. I shall briefly ad- ! vert to the history of the enterprise. A few years sincthe project was started ; it had many warm and high spirite ed friends and advocates; it had also many strong and powful enemies. And who does not distinctly remember who and what they were ? Strange as it may seem, they were principally to be found among the rich and powerful ; and among the very clas3 of men, who, possessing the most ample means, it might and ought to have been expected, would have been first and foremost in advocating and prosecuting an important, auoble public enterprise. True, there were honorable exceptions, but it cannot be denied that very many great men, very many rich men, refused all participation scoffed at our project; pointed at some of us the finger of scorn, and branded us with the epithets of "hairbrained e?ithusiasts, visionaries, who almost deserved to be sent to the mad house !' All this was said : nny more : for when the first spade was stuck into the ground, the directors were called fools, idiots, knaves ! It was declared that they were guilty of a high crime in commencing a work which must inevitably result in as total a los, as if the money expended were shovelled into tho bottomless pit ! ,111 this teas said, and much more, and measures were actually takn to arrest the work, and to cause an abandonment of thr? enterprise! Thanks to the true friends of the project, they stood firm; and with warm hearts and a just confidence in those who had ben chosen to prosecute the, work, manfully and successfully resisted all attempts to crush the noble project! The road had a sorry beginning. At first, some of our prominent men were willing to ad

vance a few dollar?, to make examinations and surveys; bit when ca'led upon to take and pay for the stock, they Jl inched, and vpfejpus'y cried out that "'twas madness to go on that the na.rrwou!d cost three times the amount of the estimates, and that if it should ever be built, (which they very strongly doubted) it would be next to worthless, it could never pay a half per cent, on its cost!" Here we

are my friends, in the Town If all, of the heart of the commonwealth we came here on the rail road, all the way from Boston, in less than three hours! This is truly a day of complete and full triumph, and again I offer you my hearty congratulations." The road is finished. But who has accomplished the work? Has it been done by the great men, the rich men of the times'? by our quarter, ha' f, and whole million men ? No sir! It has been accomplished by the bone and muscle of the community. By the middling interest people, by that class of men who have warm hearts, clear heads, and who possess almost a monotony of trpnerous public spirit. This class of our

population feel their power. They are not, and never can be man-worshippers ; thy do not place their trust in what arc called great men, or in rich men. There is, thank God, I say it with reverence, no temple for man worship to be found among intelligent freemen. It has been predicted by one who has addressed us, that rail roads are destined to extend to tho great lakes of the west. I undertake to say that they will not stop there, bet that they will ultimately pervade every part of this great country on all the routes that afford any tolerable prospect of increasing the strength, the wealth and properity of the nation. But who is to do the work? On whom most we depend for the accomplishment of these great works? No one can for a moment doubt. We must rely upon the enterprise, the intelligence and patriotism of the middle classes in society. They alono can be depended on they always have, and they always will be first and foremost in all great public enterprises. Having said thus much Mr. President, in justice to the frirnds of the Boston and Worcester rail road, permit ma to olfor this sentiment The peopTjE, tug common people, tho mid-

m.iNo interest people l iiey are really and truly tho bone and muscle ofthe community; their power is great; what can they not accomplish?

LATETl FROM ENGLAND. The ship Caledonia, Capt. Graham, arrived on Monday night from Liverpool, bringing dates to the Ib'th ulr. and London to the 15th. The London Morning Herald of the latter date remarks: "The domestic news given in the Taris papers is highly interesting. The Chamber of Peers passed the American Treaty Indemnity Bill on Friday last, by a large inajorit', (125 to 22) in the shape in which it had been brought up from the Chamber of Deputies; thus defeating all the speculations that the clause introduced into it in the latter mentioned Chamber, on the motion of Gen. Valazo, and which was thought would give offence to America, would be omitted." Great distress prevails in Ireland as many aa 3G0 families in one parish are in absolute want, and in another 83 out of 90 arc suffering for provisions. In England, measures of continually increasing efficiency are adopting to succor the Queen of pain, whose situation appears to become more critical. Recruiting parties for her service are distributed throughout the kingdom. Admiral Napier has offered to take command of the Queen's fleet, and Gen. Bacon, who had served with distinction in the Portuguese army, has volunteered to join her army. The foreign legion in the service of France, now at Algiers, composed of Poles, is also expected in Spain, and Spanish officers have reached Brussels to enrol troops. Considering the immenss number of militar' mennowidlo in all parts of Europe, it is probable that the Queen's government will by this means obtain a large accession of strength. In reference to the state of war in the north of Spain, the accounts indicates that thc Christinos have been compelled to evacuate almost entirely the Basque province and Navarre. Villa Franca and Salavatierra have surrendered to the troops of Don Carlos after being blockaded. A column commanded by Espartcro, consisting of 18 battallions of infantry and a squadron of cavalry going to the relief of the former place, was attacked by theCarlists under the Benito Eraso and totally routed : the latter stato their loes on this occasion to be merely a lancer wounded and a horse killed ; and account for its being so inconsiderable by saying that the Queen's troops came ovej- in largo bodies to their side. Irun has been evacuated by the Christinos, and some accounts say that Zumalacarreguy is on the march to Bilboa. The last accounts announce that Geru Valez and his army occupy the whole of the line from Pampeluna to the Bastan, he having his head-quarters at a small village called Lanz.

The change in the Portuguese "tlinistry appears to have

caused great discontent. Letter writers from Lisbon stata

it to have been the sole act of the liueen in opposition to the wishes of the Duchess of Braganza. It is said that Donna Maria has expressed her intention to marry the Duke de Nemours, thc second son of Louis Phillippe, with whom she became acquainted during her stay in Paris. A marriage which will assuredly not be very agreeable to the daughter of Eugene Beauharnois. The condition of the Queen's Government at Madrid is well understood to be most critical. It is feared that they may be driven from the capital before the volunteers, who are now swarming the English sea-ports, can reach the theatre of action. Steamers and other vessels arc fitting out with great rapidity, and a fleet of transports would probably be ready to sail before the clossof June. The Queen has been advisrfdby the French and English Courts, to retire on ona of tho seaports probably Cadiz if she find it impossible to maintain herself at Madrid, and rest assured ofthe efficient co-operation of hor allies.

A spirited celebration of the commencement of the Rail " Boad from Lawrenceburgh to Indianapolis, took place at the former town, on the .Vd ultimo. Henry Clay, the Governor of Indiana and Secretary of Stale, together with many other distinguished gentlemen, wero invited, several of whom, including Mr. Cla3r, were unable to aciend. It is stated in the Palladium, that between four and five thoudred persons were on the ground. The people of Lawrenceburgh appear to have taken hold of this interesting work, with a determination to succeed. We wish theru every success, as well as every other improvement in our state. Lot public opinion but concentrate upot? a few leading subjects, and a system of improvements will be adopted, at the next session of the Legislature, which will cause a new era in the history of our state. First count cost and advantages, and if the woik b"! profitable, then ufl ahead" is our motto. Indianapolis Democrat. The proceedings of the celebration of the commencement of canal boat navigation in Indiana, oa 30 miles of the Wabash and Erie Canal, are inserted in this day's paper. Th celebration took placn on the 4th of July, at th town of Fort Wayne. The toasts and other proceeding will show that the people are alive to the subject of internal improvement, and with our state executive to aid us in eve

ry laudable undertaking, we have only to be judicious in our selection of important works to enable us to make a brilliant commencement at the next session ofthe Legislature. We know the people of this particular portion of thc sta are favorably situated in point of location; but by all moans let us not try to do too much at the commencement. The only question should bp, how few should be the objects, that first receive our favorable regaid. There is a wide field before us, and numerous works deserving tho attention of the legislature. Let ur, by all meane, avoid a difference about precedence. In du:; time a system of internal improvement will be extended to every portion of th the state, if we are only judicious in the commencement. Ibid.

From the New-York Commercial. From all we can gal her in con versa lion with our mercantile friendsand acquainlanccs, we are led lo believe that so busy, slirinrr, and prosperous a season has never been experienced as that which has just passed. The importations for the spring trade Wf-ro unusually laroc but the siles hive fully equalled them in magnitude; and the alacrity o'f sellers has been met with a corresponding spirit by those who came to buy.

The ovn mit.mov loan. We learn by the Baltimore papers that tho loan of one million of dollars, authorized by the State of Maryland, for the omplction of the Baltimore and Susquehanna liail Read, was taken on Wednesday, July 2 , at Annapolis, oy Messrs. J. I.Cohen ABrothers, A. Brown &. Sons, of Baltimore, and 3Iessrs. Thomas Biddle &, Co. of Philadelphia, who jointly offered for it. This loan, it will be remembered, hilars interest at six per cent, and is irredeemable until 1870. We conjecture that it was taken at a premium of someshinj otot 17 i percent. Aew-l'rrk Gazette.

Relief roa the iiroken necked. A Dr. Harrison, of London, has published a letter in tho Lancet in which he professes to have been successful in several cases in bringing people to life who have met with tho misfortune of breaking their necks.
