We arc authorised to state, that Thomas Taylor, Esq. is a candidate tor associatejuuge. The Western Sun, printed at Vmccnnes, says, that the governent deposits have been withdrawn from the State Bank of fud'una, and that its notes are j longer receivable in the Land To the independent electcrs cf Jefferson Count j. Fellow Citizens To your candid scrutiny, your friendly investigation, I submit my obscure name, my humble talents, my moral and political conduct. The services which you find ray character competent to render, are subject to your control at the ensuing election for associate judge . I am truly sensible of the high responsibility, imposed bypublic trust and confidence. The present critical and em. b sed situation of or counti renders the consideration m ire important. The firmest -in impendence, the strictest virtue, and the most enlightened understanding, should be sought for, and Ahen found, called : .uard your sacred right-, your invaluable privileges, in die great community. Educated by f hose sentiments, I come tur--vud to tender my services -with deliberate caution, and almost with tremoling footsteps. But I have been drawn on by many and repeated solicitations. Being a native of America, having received my first scientific ideas under the best constitution upon earth with a political creed inspired by the spirit of '76, composed of tenets entirely republican my first wish is the peace, the happiues, the prosperity and the glory of my rising country. To assbt in raising up and establishing the etpaal rights of man of all men, above the iron grasp of tyranny, the ynak of despotism, and the drudgery of oppression, is my iVnest ambition. It I so far gain your confidence as to receive your cutTrages, my bcu exertions shnll be jealously, and conscientiously devoted to the strickes: rules of justice. Choose as freemen should, for the best, and yuu will have satisfied your humble servant. JACOB R HO ADS. COitMUNICATf-D. Messrs. Editors, It fell to my lot or. the 14th inst. to witness one of the most aiiecting scenes that can possibly present itself to the imagination of man. The man whose sensibility transfers to h t s bosom the sufferings of his fellows, will not tdclight in seeing even the vilest pf human monsters launched hastily into an awful eternity. Vliat then must we think of the wretch who cm be so lost to all manly thought, as not only to behold with triumphant joy the awful execution of an unfortunate, rash youth, but also offer hvs voluntary aid in it? May we not say thc very damned will shun the society of such an one, and account themselves 23 fiends less foul.' When the unfortunate Fuller brought to the scaffold, his appearance and deportment was unliable, o manly and so dig. fcified, that one would have thought hU very enemies would fuv melted into pity. He ut

composedly on the scaffold, list, cned to the preacher with attentiou, and received the ordinance or baptism, as an evidence that he had closed in with the Redeemer. When the ceremonies were over, and the moment of his exit at hand, he arose, not indeed with the countenance erf a man, but rather of an angel, proclaimed to the surrounding crowd that Jesus Christ was the son of God, and tint he expected salvation through the merits of his atonement. He then took an affectionate leave of all around him, but more particularly of the sheriff. His countenance was serene, and he smiled with the sweetest complacency as he aided the executioner to draw the cap over his face. When he was cast oft the rope broke and he tumbled to the ground; b it scarcely had the surrounding crowd, who stood all the time in breathless suspense, time to pronounce him saved, until he was raised in the arms of one or two oSicious intenmddlers, U a young man seized the rope, ascended by one of the posts to the top of the gallows, and there held it with the half strangled Fuller, partly borne up by the persons below and partly by the strength of (he young man above, umil he had time to mike it fat. The horror of the seen was heightened by the distrets ;f : :u Ji ! victim; he endeavored ti tret Lis hands to Ms nick, !ie uncovered )ri fac and vn!: a look the tn st piercing and ci..q'R'ut that can be i:nj;ifeJ, appeared to call tor assistance.

TENNESSEE LEG IS LAI UK E Extract of a letter to the ed:':r cf the Western A f ;:..' :r. J Mukfk.!IoJiom.oi:,i9 July, "Oar legist it u re i-stilt in session. Many local acts hive passed, but few of a genera! public nature. The Loan O lice Bill has changed its name, and some of its material principles.

The bmk is not to is?ue but i,:?:,coo till the next legislature; to go into immediate operation. This bill has pvei the house of representatives, and is now in the senate cn its third reading. I think it will become law. It was originally intended to consolidate this with the other btnks in the state; but that provision was "truck out."

Ext r jet cf i letter published in the B.fah f?f:ry dated 44 Mac kin a zv fune 20. "A letter was received ome short time since atChicago,frota Maj. Marston, commanding Foit Armstrong. It appears that the express communication had been cut off, and that the Mtjor availed himself of a S ick Indian to communicate with Maj. Biker, at Chicago. He states that two of his men had been killed by the Indians that they had attempted to cut off his provisions, boats, &c. but failed that they had made something Hkc a regular attack upon the fort, but were repulscd. His command was too small to think of leaving the fort in presence of the ciicmj. He had applied to Col. Leavenworth for aid, but the Col's command was too small to afford any. "The fact is that great apprc-

tensions are entertained or the safety of all the posts west of Green'Bay and Chicago. There are so few men at these -rjiaccs that it must be a great temptation to those Indians, who, no doubt, view with concern the rapid strides we are making in their country. "There are some three nr four hundred Indians at this post, on their way to D-um-mond's Island, for the purpose of receiving presents from their great father George IV. I am told they receive annual iy, from 40 to 50,000 dollars worth of goods trom the British oticers at that place."
