that I have seen, it bids fair to be an able advocate of
the Federal party under the garb of Democracy. This is to be regretted ; but since it has been started.

This has long been a desire of our, not only to make our paper more interesting to the people generally, and to their representatives in particular; and we have 44 strained a nerre" to accomplish it. It shall be done ; and what we have promised shall always be fulfilled, cost what it may. Then our expenses are great in endeavoring to do, (and what we have accomplished,) the making of full and regular daily reports of our own Legislature, and placing them before the members even almost as soon as the ink was dry which recorded them. Too
many of the present members of the Legislature have tested the usefulness of this matter, and its importance, not to estimate it truly. Its benefit to members and to their constituents, need not to be reiterated here. Each intelligent mind will survey them at a glance. We would again publish a Daily, but we deem it much less beneficiary either to members or their constituents. In publishing a Tri-Weekly, we have choeen the days on which every Tri-Weekly, as well as Daily mail, leaves. We have a few hours additional to see that our reports are correctly and properly made out. Then the postage to those to whom they are sent, is only one-half of that of a Daily, an item in these hard times not to he 44 sncezcd at," while the recipient get more matter than he otherwise could. These, however, arc but small matters, and only business ones. If the members of the Legislature should like the Sentinel well enough, we hope they will subscribe fir it. If not, it is none of our business, and many of their constituents, unless they happen to be subscribers, will never hear from them. Allca County Convention. We would call attention to the proceedings of the Allen County Convention, and particularly to the resolution respecting the appointment of a State Central Committee. We second the views of the resolution with all our heirt; because on the prompt and efficient action of that Committc2 a great deal depend. They should be men of energy, judgment and
perseverance msn who will on no occasion s.innK from their duty ; and who will d: their utmost, in season and out of snsori, to further the Democratic cause. We are led also to notice it for another reason. Some two years since, the senior editor of this paper was a mmbr of said committee. He fjund it always next to impossible to ever obtain a meeting of the committee, although he often waited on each mcm-

This credit is erroneous : The article originated with the Western Democrat," published a New Albany, and not with ths 44 Indiana Democrat," published at Indianapolis. There is as much difference between the two in regard to Hanking, as there is between chalk and cheese. The 44 Indiana
Democrat" is a Bank paper; the Now Albany Democrat, is strongly anti-Hank. Let us render unto every man according unto his ways. The Defeat of the Ohio Democracy. The fact must stare every one in the face, who is at all acquainted with the late contest in Ohio, that the Democracy defeated themselves. There is, in that, as well as in all other States a c!a?s of s:udo Democrats, who go with the party just as far as it is to their interest so to do ; and whenever the Democracy have a contest with monicd or other corporations, they arc certain to find these pocket Democrats cither fighting openly in the ranks of the enemy, or what is still worse, acting the part of the spy, and secretly plotting treason in our camp. This always has been the case. It was so when the patriot Jackson placed his iron heel upon the neck of the monster ; and it will ahcays be so, unless the Democracy take the neces-a-rv and correct steps to put an end to it. And this
can b? accomplished in one way only. Let the Dc
damn their own purty and lose power, they set their snares for some weak-minded and corrept Democrats, to help them in their iniquity, and too often succeed in accomplishing their d operate designs. I Indiana has, since IS 10 succeeded in annihilating a Federal majority of K!,W0, a re-ult almost incredible, and placing the Democracy triumphantly, and I hope, permanently, in the ascendant. She is now looked to as one of the permanent pillars of the Democratic party. This glorictis result has been brought about by her politicians taking high grounds upon all

Indiana Democrat.
This is the title of a new democratic (?) paper, just starte'd in Indianapolis edited by Morrison fc Co. A pajer gotten up in the same epirit which this one has, should neither receive the countenance or support of honest men. We never heard of a democratic paper being established for the purpose of distracting and dividing the democratic party. We never heard of a democratic nancr. which loudly professed Democra-
! cy, and at the same time was endeavoring to break I that party down. We should think such democracy had a strong resemblance to democratic courier y.
Another reason adduced why this paper was established, is because Chapman had the manly independence to deny Morrison &- Co., the rigbt ! of controlline the columns of the Sentinel. That disposition.
which l as ever characterized Chapman, to manfully
struggle against wrong, in whatever snapc 11 miK"1appear, is here plainly to be seen. His ardent and
zealous exertions in favor of tha stability and permanence of democratic institutions his tried Dcmocra-
cy his unwearied efforts to preserve unsullied the
mnciplcs which he i.as espoused Ins long connex
ion with the Democratic press ot that Mate, ana nis praiseworthy l ibors in behalf cf the democrats of his
sister States, has secured to him a grateful remem
brance of his services, in the minds of Democracy, which never can be erased, until memory shall have been swallowed up in death. Is it necessary that a Morrison party should be organized in Indiana, whose avowed object is to muzzle and thwart and counteract the intlucnce of the democratic executive organ of the State 1 Is it necessary
that a paper should be published, with the n.tcntien of brow -beating thoc who do not believe it at all ne
cessary to adopt such a system of political financicr-
and of vilhfying and at uing honest meg, uno not aree with them in their sordid and selfish
fall. Hut there was another act in the drama.

If two persons exchange hftrses, with the privilege to
one party to return the horse received by him, within a given time, und he fiil to return it in that time, the contract becomes absolute, arid each party is the unconditional owner of the property received in exchange. If, in such exchange, one of the horses be warranted, a breach of the warranty does not annul the contract of sale, and reinvest the property cf lhe respective horm s in their original owners. The vendor of goods on whom a fraud has been com
mitted by the vendee, cannot make the contract of sale as a nulity, while he willingly holds in his own hanJs, a valuable consideration received by him for the goods. A party having a light to rescind a contract must exercise his right within a reasonable time. An execution bind the personal property of the execution defendant from the time of its delivery to the officer, though the officer fails tu endorse upon it the time when ho received it. A and 11 exchange horses; after the exchange, an execution against it is delivered to an officer, after which A and D re-exchange the horte, the officer levies the execution upon loth horses, as the property of A. The lien of the execution upon the property originally owned by 1J, but belonging la A, at the lime the officer received the execution, is relinquished by the levy upon the property originally owned by A, and by him received back again by the re-exchange.

A voluntary conveyance of real estate is not void as to subsequent creditors, merely becauso the granter was indebted 25 or 30 at date of the deed. After uch deed, the grantor contracted a debt for which judgment was obtained before the deed was recorded. Subsequently to recording the deed, (which was not recorded in time,) the land was sold under an execution on said judgment. Htld, that the purchaser having notice by the record of the prior deed, took nothing by the purchase. A husband cannot convey land immediately to his wife, but he may convey it to trustees for her use.

Origin of Railways. The original inventor, it now appears, of the railwav system, was the late engineer, Mr. Fredericks of Ilanover. He first thought of constructing a machine for the conveyance of heavy loads, while visiting the mines cf Silesia, and he subsequently invented iron rails, exactly as they now arc in ue; also a locomotive engine and a cart to run from the Dovittry silver mine, upon the Hare gnion mountain, Hanover, to the place of refinement, Puchcrich, a distance of about an hour's drive. The cart was a four wheeled one, and on its frame was a wooden chest, filled with the mineral of frcm CO to SO cwt. The jjuide sat upon the driving box like a coachman, and was able, by pressure, to direct or arrest the cart at any rate of speed. The evidence connected with this origin cf the railway and locomotive is proved by persons still living, who rode in it. The distance requiring a walk of forty-live minutes was thus performed upon it by the king and queen in live. The inventor subsequently executed a drawing for an English gentleman, who as Mr. Fredericks said a short tune before his death, wishes to run my
new cart in his own country, us I do here. He admires it, and I take great carc in executing my work, in order to prove that we here arc not a set of blockheads." This invention was thus transferred to England, where Mr. Thomrts Gray of Exeter was finally instrumental in introducing it; and, after the application of steam to boat, the steam locomotive was aUo introduced. These important facts have just been made known, and t!:ey ?bow that the claims of England to this, as to almost eery other invention made by others, arc not to be sustained. Thus the world is indebted to Germany for four cf the most important inventions : those of powder, printing, clocks and railroads. -Y. Y. eics.

Frightful Scene. We learn from the Richmond Whig, that at sunrise on the morning i f the 3d inst., ns one of the carriages of the Menagerie, containing the lion, tiger, panther, &c., was in tho net of starting for Petersburg!!, drawn by four horses, one of tho horses took fright, and attempted to run ; this excited the lion, who roared from alarm, upon which the whole team dashed at full speed down Locust alley, not much more than wide enough fur the passage of the car. The driver, in his box, displayed great presence of mind, and at the intersection cf the nlley with Main street, and a few doors above the Dell Tavern, in turning them upon the side-walk, the wheels coming in contact with the posts planted along the side-walk, smashed three of them, when finally one of the wheels was knocked off from the axle, the driver pitched into the street and seriously hurt, and the wagon upset. The fore-wheels being by this means detached, tho horses preceded furiously, until they were stopped by obstacles in the street. One of them was much injured. Fortunately, the cage was strong and held its enraged prisoners. P.ritisii Notions.
