We can state, ifyon competent audi r.ty, that 0ie report is not true, thai Mexico has refused to negotiate with the government of the I mtrd State- until we shall withdraw our Bltniea fr'm her territory anil our fleets from her enacts. This rejsjrt is ab-- luttly aV .titu e at foundation. The government of that repuM.c has determined to refer tlie President's overture, to open in "g otiauoas f 1 peace, to the constituent Congress of Mexico, which will assemble in the beginning of December, (we believe the 6th )" Naval.

Tlie steamboat Ohio, fjr Fort Leavenworth, laden with about seventy-five tort of povornment stores for the army, comprising three hundred cases of arms and nCuuuUc meots, a hit of tents, about twen'y wagons, and a quantity of groceries and o'her stores, struck a snag in the Mississippi, near Arrow Rock, about two weeks ago, and went down in eight feet water. Tue Late Gale. The Norfolk papers still continue to record disasti rs at sea by the gale of the 8th instant. It is stated in the "Xewbcrnian," published at Ncwbern, North Carolina, that of the twenty vessels lying at or nar OcrUCOhe, eighteen wert driven ashore and one driven out to sea. Several lives ore said to have been lot during the gale, and feai are entertained that few if any of the vessels can be got otf. MtxicAN Bakeakuv. An officer on the Rio G ramie says that on an average one dead body per diy fl sits past Iiis encampment. A man seen one UWS am 'n his friends in the streets, is suddenly missed to-morrow.

It will be recollected hy so many of the Editorial Fraternity es met at Indianapolis HI January last, hat it was resolved these Conventions should be held annually ; and that the Indianapolis Editors were to be tons dercd a committee to have a Dinner or Supper prepares1 In firs rc'at to tlie annual occasion. Hope the Indianapolis Editors have not forgotten the resolution. These Conventions are destined to work o great reform in lbs manner of conducting the public press of the Slate. Tbfl salutary influence exercised bv the one held last w inter, has been widelv felt; and if they are continued, we may hop-; to see the corps elevated to that proud eminence which the responsibility of the trust imposed, beyond doubt, has a jerfect right to demand.

Ifluings at TwIllglU 'Tis evening the bewitching hour of evening. low delightful to spread the airy wings of fancy, soaring as on eagle's pinions far aw ay beyond the busy scenes and pleasures of the world, seclude ourselves from all the perplexing cares of life, and w hilst the cool breezes of evening are playing round, let thought unbridled roam o'er nature's broad domain. Let us follow for a moment our thoughts in their various windings to the ice-cloud regions of the

.North, where w inter Wttli his sceptre ot unequalled power reigns supreme where all must b w and pay homage to a lymnt king ;-to the East, where dwell o . W ' ' the SMStei spir.ts of the ocean, in grottoes lined w ith pearls and gold, and whsrs from the spicy regions inhale the perfumed air in all its sweetness South, with its fruits of golden hue, ami urpnssing beauty and fragrance ; and to the West, with its lakes, its beautiful prairies of tall waving grass, bending in respectful deference to the mihi breezes of Heaven. But return ye wandering thoughts: cannot ft speak the beauties of your ow n Xo.v England ! its vales and lulls, its rocks and rills ! Tell m oh tell me, is there a happier clime than thisl Elere is the home of our ancestors, where happiness, penes and prosperity shine around our path, and cheer us onward in the round of life. These arc thoughts that sometimes intrude upon the snn-set hour. Can ye, w ho love an hour of solitude in iungination, picture a season more lovely, or more in congeoisltty with your feelings, than si callS lUnilBCf evening, where all is peaceful, all is hushed, the glorious sun has withdrawn his resplendent beams, throwing over the face of nature a mantle of pure evening twilight, while above you is spread ihe broad blue and boundh ss expanse of HeaCl n ! It is the hour too, tor meditation and reflection ; when in the post we see bright and beautiful visions flitting serosa the mind's iyc, th n suddenly some dark glo eny ahadow arises to ehasu aw iy the bright and glittering nv Thus it is with all ; at one time the iky all cloudless, then darkness and gloom. But we must not fuget it leads ua to appreciate the many blessings bestowed upon us, and to turn our erring feet from the dark path of vice. S. lh F. For the Slate Sentinel. Having travelled in the States of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, a good deal for the last five or six years, have travelled ill the lines of the Messrs. J, & P. Yoorhccs, &.C. and also in the lines of ihe Messrs. A. L. W. L. R""8 &. Co., and I find all of their several hues well conducted, h iving no reason tocotnpliin. I would not troub.e you, UesSTs. Ivlit rs, if had not seen an article in the DttytOO Journal, and copied from the Dayton lournal, into several of the whig papers in Indiana, with an ardent desire to injure the stage line of the Rosses. I can say t disinter estedly, that the stn.'e hues of the Rosses are well Conducted in the States of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, as I have travelled in their lines in all of these States, and find their accomm datton i ffood, nnd their fare O v reasonable. As to their Ims in Kentucky and other States, I du not know anything about them, but one thing is certain,tbat no reasonable man will complain at the prices, or the aeooin n idations at furnished by tlie Rosses upon theirseseral hues: and it will be remembered that the Voorheeses charged f r a single seat in their atant between Wheeling and Cincinnati, wlicn the Ohe river was frozen over lat winter, the small sum of twenty-five dollars only three tunes the i amount of the regular fare. The Journal slso Complaint that the Rosses are the political favorites of the Postmatter General. I think there is no better evidence of the Ilosses fulfiliin i tle ir contracts tatitfactOTily to all, (except to the few such wings as the edlt r of the Journal and small frv the Broohville American,) than to have the confidence of such a man 1 as Ca ve Johnson My opinion is, that if the YOOrheesUJ could get the flosses out of their way, the travelling public W uld j t r i i Ii i . . i , c ., , he compelled to pi v twre as much stage fare in the . . , ,! 1,1 West as they do ut present. 1 h pe, therefon the stage lines of the .Messrs. R.'s will be aufficiently patronised to compete with the monopoly of Ihe j Messrs. Voorheeses. I hope the public will think uf ; these things, and recollect ihut they paid about twice ;is stoch stage fare iu Indiana previous t j the Rosses getting several routes in Indiana, than they have since.

The Wabash LXpress is in favor of publishing estray notices in a paper in the county in which the annual is taken up, or in the nearest paper thereto, instead of, as is n w done, sending them to Indianapo'is for publication, and nsk. the opinion of ihe papers "ii the subject. A considerable number are in for the proposition of the Express some f-r one ress n, and others for another. We are surrv it i- to, but we cannot agree with them. A chanire in the e mode uf advertising, like that proposed, is not, in our opinion, desirable. The end for which the publication is made, would not be as effectually attained by I change. As the law gov stands, a person losing a horse can, bv Koinai lo the coouty clerk's office. ascer tain whether it has been taken up in any county in the State. We think a change should not be made. unlaws it is to have tle nottcea published in the local papers as well as at the capital. If thev are to be published in but one paper, WC think the public inI mf lereat U rmanoa thai the law .should remain as it is. fVssi the uVsrnssaflf Pafrisf, S"pt. 17. We have f r sometime noticed that the " Wabash Express," u Tippecanoe Journal," M New Albany Bulletin,1 and several other papers, ore growling, at a wonderful rate, because the publication of the list of K-travs is made in the Indianapolis papers. We think the law is that tar right. If a hor.se stravs from central Indiana, and is taken upon the Wabash, the owner may, under the present law, be able to find him. Whereas it' the publication was made in the countv piper, the Express for instance, it would scarcely ever be seen out of the immediate neighborhood. We hope these fellow lufferers are not so hard run as to desire the change of law, because it might throw a few dunes into their clutches. Hotter have a paper established firmly, and a mere pecuniary des, re v. .11 not then be to apt to influence an editor's action. Madam Ji well.
