- - U IIUIIIU VIULil with feelings of pleasure, as indicating the course

that state may pursue in the next Presidential election. With some little knowledge of her politics, we cannot discover the ground on which the opposition found their hopes of success there.. The vote given to Ritner certainly does not warrant such a conclusion: for, take the vote given to him for governor, and that of Wolf and Mughlenberg, and it will be seen that Ritner falls short of having a majority, some 10 or 15,000. Besides, it should be borne in mind that he was the anti-Masonic candidate, and as such received the votes of both administration and Whigs, belonging to that party. Local considerations, as well as an unfortunate division ofthe friends of the administration, between Wolf and Mughlenberg, contributed much to swell Ritner's vote. When the Democrats come to vote for President and Vice President, in 1830, the case will bo different; and the result, we firmly believe t will be the triumphant success of the ticket formed by the Baltimore Convention. The Pennsylvanian, in an article which we copy to-day, takes the correct view of this subject; at least we think so, and so may others, who will take the pains to read the remarks, and reflect a little on the Etate of politics.

She went to one ofthe hotels in broadway, were sho saw a person enter who sho thought strikingly resembled her seducer. She was expelled hence, and this confirmed her suspicious that he was the person whom she was seeking. She waited for more than an. hour, when she saw the same person leave the house aud walk down the pravetnent. She followed, overtook,and seized him by the throat ', threw him down, and nearly strangled him before she distinctly saw his features, when finding that she was mistaken, she fainted away. On being resussitated she raved and tore her hair and conducted herself so violently that the watchman took her lo the watch house, in the morning the magistrate had hardly asked her the reason of her behavior, ere she burst into tears, threw herself on the ground, and prayed with a bitter earnestness for instant death. She was put below for a short time, when becoming somewhat more composed,and no person appearing to prefer a complaint against her, she was set at liberty, upon promising to go and live with an acquaintance in Madison street.

ift: I have had the honor to receive your letter cf the 30th ulto. in relation to a deficiency in the funds required for the payment of Pctis-ionors at the Branch ofthe Slate Bank of Indiana at Lawrenceburgh. The inclosed report from the Commissioner of Pensions, will shew you the amount of the first remittance for this object to the Parent Bank; the cause of deficiency that occurred at tha above Branch; and the measures that were promptly taken to place the requisite funds at its disposal. Very respectfully,

We learn from a note in a lat e number of the Indiana American, that the Brookville Inquirer, lately published by Col. C. W. Hutchen, has been discontinued. We shall not pretend to guess at the causes which have led to the early demise of the Inquirer; bat this we will say, that we believe one paper is all the patronage that location will at present warrant. Tho American, being the older paper, of couree had the advantage in this particular.

The following named gentlemen were elected, by the stockholders, directors of the Branch Bank at this place, on Monday last, viz: Omer Tousey, Nerval Sparks, George Tousey, John P. Dunn, Walter Ilnys, William Tate, Daniel S. Major, Ezra CiucrJ, Jacob Hays, and Richard Tyner. Directors appointed on the part of the State Bank: Jatuea M. Darragh, Pinkney James and Ezra Ferris. The directors have re-appointed Omer Tousey, President, and E. D. John, Cashier. D. S. Major is appointed director to represent this branch in the directory ofthe State Bank.

War Department, ) . Pension Ojicc, Oct. 10, 1835. Sir: The deficiency of funds complained of in the enclosed letter from the Hon. A. Lane, is not attributable to any remissness on the part of this offiee. The annual expenditure on account of Pensions in Indiana, does not exceed $40,000. During the months of May, June, July and August, in 134, the whole amount sent to Mr. Posey, "the late Pension Agent, and the predecessor ofthe present agent, was only $19,910; and that sum was sufficient to meet ull the demands on him. For the corresponding months of the present vear. which in

clude one semi annual payment, $00,000 has been

sent to the present agent. The remittances therefore would have been sufficient, had all the Pensions been payable at one place, as formerly. But under the present arrangement they are payable at ten different agencies, and it is owin? to this armnw.

She was taken under the care of tha commissioners of the Alms house, and soon after obtained a situation in a respectable family in Pearl street, as nurse maid. Nothing was heard of her for pome time, until she was invited to the house of an English family named James, living in Oak street, who honored her so far as to form a party on tho occasion and celebrate

her birthday, and here two young fellows who aspired to her and in a country dance, quarrelled,

From the Cincinnati Whig. The MunncitERs Fate. John W. Cowan, the miserable wretch who so inhumanly butchered his wife and two children a short timo since, in this city, was arraigned for trial on Saturday last before tho Court of Common Pleas, Judgo Este and his Associates, presiding.

He pleaded guilty to thc charge of murder in the first degree, and pertinaciously refused the aid of counsel. Ho was informed by the court that ho had the right of choosing to be tried by the Supremo Court, which would not sit until the sping. Tha court also stated to him that if he were unable to employ counsel the court would appoint competent atlornies to assist him. These several propositions he refused, and insisted on his

pertect willingness to be sentenced immediately no matter what his fate. In tho spirit of justice and humanity, the court nevertheless determined to hear the testimony for its own guidance. The murders ere amply proved, and lo have been committed with the most depraved and deliberate purpose. It was also in evidence that he attempted (o poison his victims a few days before he committed the butchery, by putting arsenic in the vessel of water from which they were accustomed to drink. When tho court asked him if he knew of any cause why sentence of death should not be pronounced against him, he replied that he was willing to abide by thc laws of his country. Judge Este then addressed hirn in a verv spnRi-

blo and appropriate speech, and concluded by sentencing him to be Hung by the neck until he was dead, on FRIDAY THE 27th OF NOVEMBER INSTANT. The prisoner received ihe sentence with perfect composure, and smiled as it was pronounced. We understand that he states his purpose of destroying his wife to have been conceived three years ago, but that he never could put it in execution until the period of the fatal catastrophe. He also continues to justify his crime. A more cold blooded and heartless villain we have never heard nor read of in the annal of wickedness and depravity.
