On all subsequent oceasion! L was among thc most eiliciont and decded advocates of the system. Mr. Van Huron at thc commencement of this era. was Attorney General of the State; but the , Council nF Annointmcnt, at whose pleasure the ofiicc was hcld Mr. Clinton. This however dU not prevent him from pursuing with Iranknes Jnd decision the course which his judgment had p escribed; though he was aware the loss ot othec C! 5 i : :.,ki, fnlW. He was accordingly re WOfK. His u " C V . . I ti t !, n t moved n JuVy; 1310. Opposition to .Vr. Clinton , the only cknsc assigned for this e.rc, which was to Mr. Van Uuren, one of the most fortunate ercnS in his public life. It commended him more than ever to the confidence and affections of the repibhean party, who remembered his uniform , adhereancc to their cause, and above all, h'svigoroSrsupport of the government, at the most glooiny neHod of he war. It also largely contributed to fhe peculiar result of the election in 1&20, when the opponents of Gov. Clinton, though they failed in Senting his re-election, carried both branches of ihc le-islature. A restoration to the office of Attorney0 General was tendered to Mr. an Huren.by his political friends: but being declined, he w as . anpointed, in February, 1S-1, a Senat or in he Co -cress cf the United States, and took his seat .n December, 1S21. In 1527, he was re-elected to the same station. . Thc same superiority which marked his political career in his own State, attended him at W ashington. He took a leading part in the presidential election of 1321, and thc canvass which preceded it. 1 elicvin- the election of Mr. Ciawford more likely, at that period, to bring back the government to the Jcffersonian policy, than that of any of his competitors, he gave that gentleman his vigorous support. His perseverance under the most adverse circumstances, in the support of that upright and persecuted statesman, is well known, as is also the overwhelming defeat, both in his own State, and m the Union, which terminated the contest. In that catastrophe, his enemies ignorant or forfretful of the recuperative power of talents ami integrity vainly imagined they saw thc downfall, it not the end of Mr. Van Huren's influence, reputation and success: but before another year had elapsed, he occupied a position more elevated than ever. The first step towards that position, was the viso determination to take no part in the decision by the Houc of Representatives a resolution adopted by tlw friends of Mr. Crawford, with thc double mo tive of retaining their usefulness after the contest should be decided, and of preserving themselves from the charge of coalescing with their opponents. After the election, Mr. Van Huren advised his friends at home to abstain from all acts of hostility towards Mr. Adams; to give him a fair trial and to iud-e of his administration by his acts. Ilis course in the Senate was governed by the same principles: and it was not until the great question of the 1 anama Mission, that he found occasion to depart from it. His opposition to that measure; the interesting considerations connected with it, and the judgment which the people have pronounced on the conduct .f,n ennnorted it. is well known. It was after taking th;s stand, an act which drew upon him the marked hostility of the cabinet, and the open denunciation of their supporters that he was re-elected to the Senate, by the legislature of evv 1 ork. With the electors of President and ice 1 resident for the State of New York, a governor of the State was also to be chosen, to succeed the distmgirfchcd and lamented Clinton. 1 icldmg to the pressing demand of the republicans of New ork, Mr. Van Huren consented to become a candidate, and was subsequently elected. He entered on the duties of this high trust on the first of January, lJ, and on the Cth transmitted to thc legislature the annual Message a document equally creditable to thc State and its author. He administered the government until the 12th of March following, when he rc6;ned, in consequence of his appointment as Secretary of State, of tho United States. Of thc ability and uprightness with which he discharged the duties of the Executive Department, there is high and honorable proof. A Xsw Claim.

It was in fact the Thieves Exchange. The ostensible head of the establishment was Timothy Loker, who received his degree of S. 1 . C. in the nrr thrr vpnrs ajTo. lie maincai a certain degree of dignity and state, and kept a seraglio of unique specimens of female beauty: there was Sarah Cummings and Catharine .Nelson; 3Iarcaret Koach and Elizabeth Over; Betsey Roach and Mary Brown, who all acknowledged him as their liecre lord and protector, for the time being, lhe las! lady, Mrs. Brown, filling the responsible office of duenna in the interior apartments, and being rather too much dilapidated to toddle to jail, was io a kroner in the premises, while Loker and the other five ladies were taken into custody. 1 here was but one bed in thc house, and the only cooking utensil was a tin teakettle, which was half filled with rum. When the ofiicers entered, the floor ot the lower room was completely flooded with rum. Veteran Rcid declared, that ho "know them all, and every le- of 'em would drink like ducks." Another witness had seen rum carried into thc house in mugs, pitchers and pails, out of which he had seen the women drink; and, when thcy had taken so much that they could not stand, they would lie round on the floor, in true Turkish style, while Loker carried round the pail for them to drink from as they lay sprawling One night, through drunken negligence, they et The house on fire, and came very near being consumed in the flames. The ages of the women ranged from seventeen to seventy. 1 he youngest was Betsey Roach, who wore a bran new satin bonnet of the latest fashion, and trimmed with green ribbon and flowers, siocKing, woUtpair, but not mates; likewise a shoe she had on her riht foot, and on her left a pump thc former out at the toe, the latter down to heel. She shed tears freely not on her own account, sne declared, but k i,-'o What filial affections in "shreds and ucr luuiubi . , i patches," The mother, too, was touched by her daughter's lachrymosity, and tried hard to shed a tear; but the briny secretions had long since been dried and scorched up by constant inhalings of alcohol. Catharine Nelson was thc oldest, anu pro fessed to be shockingly scandalized by tne cnarge preferred against her. Her eyelids were red and intlimed, and looked like nothing so much as the crimsoned pouting lips of a wax-work beauty. When asked if her "eyes acquired their sanguine hue by weeping at the wickedness that surrounded her,'" she replied, that she "could never have believed there was so much sin in tho world, if she had 'nt witnessed it." United in crime, the groupe were not divided in punishment, but all six sent to the house of correction for six months. Greater Harrison meeting in Indianapolis.

The Couiier and Enquirer of the 5th inst.. contains tho fol10 Extract of a letter from Forsyth, Geo., 15th Oct. 1835. "We had an insurrection in this county last week. The negroes rose against the whites, with the intention to kill all the men and aged women, and take the young women as wives. Fortonately their intentions were discovered in lime About .1W negroes have been arrested, and will be tried to day in this town. It is supposed that many of them will be executed." Love to Enemies. It will not be denied by any one, that Christianity requires us to love our enemies. It is thought by some, however, that this requirement is hard to fulfil, if not impossible. We readily grant that it would be absurd for any other than a religious system to require this, because its requirements would be beyond its example, or more than its moral power would assist us to perform. It is proper for Christ to require more than any other teacher, of his follows, because ho has exemplified more in his conduct, and given us a more noble example also m the character of our Heavenly Father. Vrhen be requires us to love our enemies, ho does not ask us to do more than he himself did, or go beyond the example which he exhorted all men to imitate the perfections of Deity. He does not ask us to go beyond thc requirements of our own happiness, or do that whiah his religion did not inspire us'to perform. It is not therefore a hard matter for the christian to love his enemies. They may do it indeed and in truth by the energy and spirit of Christianity, and in imitation of the character of our Father. For we are assured that He does more than the publican and the sinner. He loves his enemies; even the unthankful and the disobedient are the subjects of hia everlasting love. Christian! go thou and do likewise, and God will bless you. Universalist Watchman. Emzabetutown, Ky. Nov. 11. Suockino Murder.
