He considered the resolutions of the gentleman from Me. mere evasions; and insisted upon the House coining to a direct vote on the constitutional jueslion. " He declared nothing else would satisfy the South. Gentlemen must pursue a bold, manly, direct course they must come up to the mark they must toe it! Mr. Glascock submitted a resolution as an addition to the amendment of Mr. Wise, declaring anv attempt to agitate the question of slavery in the House "is calculated to disturb the compromise of the Constitution, to endanger the Union, and if persisted in, to destroy, by a servile war, the

peace and prosperity of the country. This resolution was about to lead to discussion, but Mr. Cambrelinz called for

A e cannot forego the pleasure of expressing publicly, our gratification at the passage of the Internal Improvement Ttill. Indiana has taken a noble stand, in the cause of Im provemcnt. The works she has nroiertpd wil!. it itrn

cost much money, but our young and rising State with her j Sm? ?ldf 7 Land u hm fT """P u , . . . , . .6 t ons had expired, the call was sustained, and th

plish the contemplated work?, without difficulty. The money she expends in her public works, will produce an ample interest, and one which will be constantly increasing from year to year. Our Representatives and Senator who supported the Bill, have done nobly and wisely; though a few persons of narrow views and timid hearts, may now disapprove their vote, yet the time is not far distant, when the present Legislature, will receive from the whole people of the State, the unanimous plaudits of "well done good and faithful servants. While on this subject we would remark that there is a Resolution, before our Legislature, for instructing our Delegation in Congress to vote for Clays Land Bill. If this Bill should pass, Indiana w ill re

ceive between 8 and 900,000$ as her share of the proceeds of the sales of the public lands, already sold, and her fair and equal proportion of the proceeds of the sales, hereafter to be made. This fund is now much needed by Indiana. If the Land Bill does not pass, the vast proceeds of the Public Land sales, will be spent on the seaeoast and Indiana will never get her share of it. We shall see whether our Representatives in Congress will vote against Indiana getting her due share of this great fund.

07" Those who took the Palladium last year are considered as subscribers, until they notify us of their wish to dicsontinue. There are a few papers, in our office belonging to subscribers, which have not been called for, and we wish the subscribers to call and receive them, or notify us of their discontinuance. Arrearages must be paid before any paper will be discontinued.

(jJT The Lower House of the Legislature, has determined to prefer to the Senate, articles of Impeachment against the Hon. Gustavus Everts, President Judge of the Eighth Judicial Circuit. The people of Indianapolis had quite a jollificaon , on tke passage of the Internal Improvement Bill. The town wss brilliantly illuminated, as a demonstration of the public

joy.

The reader will find, in our paper of to-day, some ac

count of the war in Florida.

fjr In publishing last week the names of the Van Burrn Electors of this State, we copied from the Indiana Journal. The Journal had mistaken the name and resi

the same error, which we now take pleasure in correcting

We published the name of WilliarrrB. White, of Fountain

county as an elector, it should hare been William White of

Vermillion county.

07" While new subscribers are coming in every day, with a liberality which has our hearty thanks, we ence in a

while get a surly letter, requiring us not to send our paper any longer. We want it distinctly understood, thatjwe never complain of a subscriber's honorably withdrawing from our subscription list. Our democracy teaches us to respect the opinions of those who differ with us, and accord to them, the right we claim ourselves, of speaking as we thiuk and thinking as we please. But there is one thing we do complain of a subscriber discontinuing his paper, by letter, without paying the postage. There is no rule of honesty more plain than the one which requires the writer of a letter, onhisotrn fcusmew, to pay the postage. When we receive letters therefore, discontinuing our paper and taxing us with postage, we shall publish the letters and the names of the writers. If we have to pay for the letters, our readers shall have the benefit of them.

Total loss by the latejire in Aeic Fori-.-The committee on the amount of losses, have reported the destruction of 527 buildings exclusive of the exchange and south Dutch church, and a loss of $17,115,692. The amount of property destroyed in building is estimated at $4,000,000, in merchandise $13,115,092.

Hon matter was suspended.

The subject however was the very next day thrown into the Senate by Mr. Morris, of Ohio; who presented va-

j nous memorials from citizens of Brown County, in jour State, praying for the same object. Mr. Calhoun called for

trie reading ot one of them; and immediately after it was read Mr. Calhoun moved that the memorials be rejected, and advocated the measure as due to the dignity of the Senate, many of w hose members had been insulted and calumniated by the petitioners and necessary to give quiet and confidence to the South. Mr. Morris replied, protested strongly against the rejection and urged a reference to the usual quarter the committee on the district of Columbia. Judge Porter of Louisiana followed and made a most animated and vigorous speech in favor of immediate rejection. Jiul Mr. Preston, of S. Carolina carried away the palm of oratory. I have seldom heard a more powerful burst of eloquence in the Walls of Congress." He cave a most impress

They are both understood to be in favor of referring all such memorials and petitions to the District Committee. This will undoubtedly be the direction they will receive. It is certainly the proper course. A bill has passed the House of Representatives, and been read twice and referred to the committe of finance in the Senate, making an appropriation of $80,000 for repressing hostilities commenced by the Seminole Indians in Florida. On Thursday Mr. Adams inquired of the chairman of the committee on foreign affairs (Mason of Va.) whether the government had received any official information relative to our political and commercial relations with Mexico; and Mr. Mason having replied that none had yet arrived at the State Department, Mr. Adams gave notice that unless the President should send a special message on that day, or Monday, he would himself submit a proposition on the subject. It seems we are to have war on all sides war in Florida war with Mexico and if the Old Hero can accomplish it, war with France. The city is lull of speculations on the last topic Mr. Barton arrived here last night and Mr. Livingston this morning. Rumor savs that they have been closeted several hours with the President. A cabinet council w as also held, and it is said that a special messege has been resolved upon, and that it is to be warlike. If we are to believe report, the old General stands alone m the solution for tear. Cass, Dickerson, Forsyth and V an Buren have been doing all they could to hold him back from his determination but in vain. I fear from all I can see and learn, that in the

Congress will have the special message, recommending

lun-iuiurcourse ana perhaps a resort to reprisals. But I do not doubt that the Senate will make strong opposition to the wishes of the Evecutive. It is said that Mr. Van Buren opposed the general's

or war so aecuieuiy to-day, that the old Hero grew quite angry and a difference ensued but this is rumor.

I open my correspondence with you, at a time, when the proceedings of Congress are becoming, erery dayj more interesting. Tha last w eek has been full of important incidents and movements. The subject of Abolition has been taken up, incidentally, twice in the House of Representatives, and once in the Senate ; Then we have had the hostilities of the Semjnoles in Florida The Mexican affairs the bill providing relief for the New York sufferers and finally the arrival of Mr. Rarton and Livingston Cabinet meeting;? rumors of the President's intention to send

nu to crown an, a report which is just now current of a breach between no less persons than Martin Van Buren, and Him whom he thought it glory enough to serve! To be a little more particular. On Monday Mr. John Quincy Adams presented a petition from citizens of Massachusetts, praying for the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia, which, he gave notice that he intended before h6 sat down, to move should be laid on the table He was proceeding to make some explanations, when Mr. Patton of Va. asked the Speaker, if the petition had been received; and upon the Speaker replying in the negative, Mr. CJlaiscock of Ga. immediately arose, and moved that the petition be rejected. He spoke for some minutes in fiupport of this motion ; when Mr. Adams submitted that

From this decision Mr. Adams appealed, and the speaker having stated his reasons and the question being put "shall th decision of the Chair stand!" a long and animated debate ensued. The whole practical point to be determined being "shall the House debate the question to day or tomorrow which was settled by Mr. Vinton makinr

motion to adjourn. This prevailed, and when the matter came up next day, the question of orderand the whole subject matter connected with it were postponed to Tuesday. It was imagined that this exciting topic had received its quietus for a time but no! On Wednesday when the speaker began to call ou the states in order, for resolutions Mr. Javis of Me. offered two, declaring in effect, that the question of Abolition of Slavery in the I). C. ought not to be entertained by Congress; and that if any petitions praying for ttiat subject should be hereafter presented, they ought to be Iaid on the table, without reading r being printed. Mr. Jarvis supported his resolutions in a speech of consi

GLORIOUS NEWS FROM TEXAS. "Freedom's battle once began, Bequeathed from bleeding sire to son, Tho' baffled oft, is surely won.' St. Antonio, the last fortress of the despot Santaanna, in Texas, has fallen! The valor and perseverance of the colonial troops were irresistible. This ever in hr

event took place on Thursday, Dec. 10th. On the Saturday previous (the 5th) 300 of the colonial troops entered the town of San Antonio, under the command of Colonel Benj. R. .Milam. They could not at first get possession of the public square owing to the walls and ditches across the mouths of the streets, each of which was likewise defended by two pieces of artillery, and in consequence of this, they occupied some buildings and tops of houses adjacent. Here they remained battling unceasingly night and day, until Wednesday the 9th, when they forced their way into the square and drove the enemy across the river into their I'uit called the "Alamo." In these relative situations the battle continued until Thursday the 10th, when the enemy capitulated. By ihc Capituhition, upwards of 1000 yielded to less than 300. The town itself was surrendered with 21 pieces of brass artillery, 1200 rounds of powder, hall, grope, and canister, with the public stores of every description. Th;s glorious conquest was achieved, with a loss on the part of the conouerors of rmlv L-;i!,i! n.l 'm

wounded, while the loss of the enemy in killed, is

variously csumair U, at Irom UU to 150. But the joy ofthe triumph was sadly diminished by the circumstance tint tho brave Milam, the dauntless leader ofthe storm was numbered among the slain. Ho fell by a bill through his head while

The New Orleans Gmysand Blues constituted a great irmj rity of these, and all the renvtinuVr were from dilfcrcnt parts ofthe state of Mississippi. The whole of them were among the the first and foremost where the battle raced hottest, and

displayed throughout the undaunted bravery of disciplined regulars. A provisional government is now established, and on the 1st of March next a new convention will meet to organize more folly and efficiently. There are between 1000 and 1500 volunteers from the U.

Mr. Renton reached Washington yesterday evening". Mr. Livingston had preceded him several days. We learn, there has been much consultation

with the confidential friends ofthe Executive, with- i in the last few days, on the subject of French affairs. A "Cabinet Council," according to the Alexandria

uazette, was held on Saturday. The National Intelligencer of Monday, received this morning, says: "It does not appear to us likely that the President will propose, at this moment, any direct action by Congress in reference to the question between us and France. He may perhaps recommend some further attention to the national defences, which, without reference to the pending controversy with Franco, would in our opinion be advisable." Baltimore Patriot.

PEACE OR WAR. It has been surnVested that

France wants war as well from policy as feeling. The only authority for such a supposition is to be found in the speculations of Drivate letter writers.

and unofficial newspapers in France: which we know from experience, are at least as little to be relied upon as the similar sources of information in our

own country We are therefore amonjr those who

deem the authority for such a suggestion wholly insufficient, and unworthy of serious regard. It 13

Charge at Washington, and been shewn by that minister's directions to the Secretary of State, so lately as the month of September last. Had that commu

nication been met in a similar spirit of conciliation, there is every reason to believe it would have led at once to an honorable settlement of the point in dispute.

We are loth to believe, and cannot believe, that our ancient friend and ally, the French nation, would indulge a hostile feeling towards us, without a more sufficient cause than the conduct, however it may be characterized, of the individual head of one branch of our Government when they have nothing to complain of on the part of the People, or of "that branch of the Government who have the sole les-al

power to declare war. Ag little can we believe that the King of France can be actuated by a hostile dis
