As customary, the proprietors of the Indiana State Sentinel will isJue a triweekly sheet during the ci m-itig-session of the Legislature. The best of Reporters have been engaged exclusively for this paper, and no pains will be spared to give the fullest, earliest and mo.it correct intelligence on all subjects. The paper will be of double medium size, (same a the weekly) and affoidcd at one dvllar the session, in all cases in advance. The proprietors would respectfully solicit the aid of their friends in procuring subscriber?, as a very heavy expense is necessarily involved daring the session. 0-Our cotemporaries will confer favor by giving the above a few insertions, which shall be reciprocated by every means hi our power. tf. G. A. & J. P. CHAPMAN. Toryism ami Ignorance Tlie Wabash Express of Sept. ÖO1J1, under the caption of "Sad Prospects Ahead, groans over the whig pretence that Mexico "utterly refuses to entertain any -propositions for peace" until all our forces are withdrawn from that country and its coasts. The Express nevertheless derives consolation in the hope that a different elate of things mav be brought about cither by the interference of Great Britain, or by our government's running, cut of Cash. Very patriotic , notions, truly, and jutfuch as might he anticipated of a full-blooded Inry. As a specimen of the patriotism and intelligence of the Expresf, wc present the following extracts, being the conclusion of the article under consideration : "In rejecting any offers we make for peace, it would seem like madness on the part of Mexico, as it will lead our army further into their country ; but can she honorably treat when surrounded by hostile fleets at sea and threatened with armed men on her own soil 1 and would we nut, under tlie same circumtan- - ces, reject offers from all the powers of the earth, while an army was near, with guns pointing at "ourcapitol! Mr. Folk's reasons for refusing to accede to the Mexican proposition is one merely of dollars and cents, and is entitled to little weight, for we take it, nothinjr would be more certain than peace from Mexico, if she has only half a chance to arrange it without a loss of the honor she has left. Her prominent men cannot think of letting themselves totally down in the eyes of the world, and her course will certainly be considered in this case at least, patriotic, if not chivalrous. "We do not know who sends us this rejection; with ra redes in prison at Perote, and Santa Anna sick, or feigning sickness at Jalapa, and their Congress not " in session, it would seem that the Mexican govern- ' ment is without a head. The cup of degradation is not drained to the dregs, and weakness has not yet - fully felt the arm of power, both of which, we fear, is the 'manifest destiny" of the country, once conquered by tlie weak arm of Pizarro." It may be thought strange, but it is nevertheless true, that these paragraphs stand in the Express just as we have placed them here. Their inconsistency is as manifest as it is gro?s. In the first, Mexico is not only justified in the foolish stand it is assumed die has taken, but her course is pronounced patriotic if not chivalrous ! While in the second, n.-iin Rprm 1 to be. taken to aenuit the neonle of Jleviro. or an nf , their noted leaders, from the responsibility of the ridi culous policy at first pronounced so patriotic and chivalrous! We will not dwell upon the incoherence of these paragraphs in these respects ; but the more our readers scan them, the more absurd they will appear. It is equally unnecessary to dwell upon the evident leaning in favor of Mexico and her tyrants, displayed by the Express. This is perhaps quite as much owing to that hallucination generated in weak minds by blind partizanship, which leads them to desire ill to their own country, as a means of disgrace to an opposing party, as it is to a native treasonableness of disposition. It is only worthy of note, because it identifies the modern whig with the old federal party, beyond question. But the historical flourish with which the Express winds up in a "burst of eloquence, is perhaps worth correction, as u may serve otr.crwise to mislead sucn oi me Doy reaaers oi me express as nave oeen to a district school. Mexico is spoken of is "the country once conquered by Pizarro. Now the editor of the Express estimates himself as a very smart man; and we are willing to admit, that while he confines himself to attempts at aping the Louisville Journal ia aquibs and paltry paragraphs, he gets along a. well J ts mosi country euuors, aim ueiicr pruoaoiy man 1 . ,.. , 4 , ,, . i most tape-cutters could do. But it is one thinj to labor over a dull joke, and quite a different one to discuss the policy and history of nations, either present or past. If the editor of the Expces-a had consulted any school book of history, he might perhaps have ' discovered that Pizarro had about as much to do in J the conquest cf Mexico as he had in fighting our revolutionary battles, and no more. The theatre of his j exploits was South, not forth America, in Peru, not in Mexico, which goes to show very conclusively that Mr. Donaldson's historical knowledge is not a whit better than his political. The Jotiru:il. Oar neighbor of the Journal seems determined to go aliead. He has commenced the publication or a , Tri-Weekly paper,-(of which the Weekly will be made up,) on a neat sized sheet, and got up in good style, so far as the art is concerned. Of the matter, its readers must judge. We notice it is put at the extremely low price of 1.00 a year. If this is not an unintentional error, we feel certain the proprietor tnust be a loser. -We are obliged to our neighbor for his compliment to our enterprise; but think, on reflection, he will . not say he "has always given as much reading matter as any other paper in the Slate." lie ought to have excepted the State Sentinel. Wc woulJ however .ay to therpublic that his paper ought to be supported, if untiring persevcrauce deserves encouragement at all. J. P. Chatmax, Esq., junior editor of the State Sentinel, called on us a few days since. He seemed to bo highly pleased with the business appearance and go-ahead spirit of Lafayette. And, should ha not be re-elected State Printer, we tdiouuJ by no means be surprised to see him take up hi-i.futae residence in tur nhit.-Jjifnyetie Journal. Lafayette is a "btüly t jw n ' : no doubt about that. But J. P. C. his no notion at present of making it his residence under any contingency. He has 110 idea of leaving the State Sentinel, whether he should bo re-elected State Printer or not; but bethinks his chances for re-election much better than Major Seamans, for election. If the Major should happen to be elected, however, will he remove his residence to Indianapolis I There is room in this big town for cvTal more printing oCccs, we have only five or six just now.

Prosecution or the AVar. We take the following extracts from tlie Washington correspondence of the N. Y. Journal of Commerce. The statements agree r, ith others from tlie same quarter, and seem to be authentic. The course indicated scemi to m the only proper one. To tie vigorous prosecution of the war only, can we look in the Lope of a speedy and honorable peace. The Adminirtralion bave, (irr full deliberation, deter

my sugge tn talc p ssrMjn of Tatnpico, with aicw to fjcüitate the operation, of the army of invasion. That strong and immediate movements are to bo made, you nay infer from the fccl, that on Saturday transfer drafts were signed, at the Treasury, for very near s million of dollar, on the N. York U-u.k, in order to p'aco funds in New Orleans pretant. Anna, thoogh probably diaedfr pears .. promotive of his own iolerctt, a well as those of bis country, is merely il.i agent and representative of miü'ary exprice, whii h so frequently at:d suddenly produces in'c Mexico "changes without revolutions," as General tfalas o annrnorute v rcmaiks. MDU .Mini was selected I r the new movement because he had influence with the army, as General Salas slate. He would not destroy that ii fluence by promoting peace II m h wHIiixr In lie may oe wining to chosen without refer, nee to any personal inier cts. The surmise that Santa Anna may nse this Congress as a m re machine for the promotion of bis own olj xts, is, thoiefire unfoundtd. The new movement is based miinly on two principles iitternal tranquillity, and territorial integtity. The first act f the Constituent Cungress, called to frame the or terrilorv. 2io sigacii'us person can now believe that there is much hope fjr peace from the conciliatory disposition of Mexico. Gen. P. M. Butr, of H. C . state, that Mr. Polk, iu . free conversation on this sul jct, led Lim to infer that much depended on ibe itiGaeoce and disposition of Santa Anna In case the war thoulJ he protracted, Mr. Polk still a large number of troops would be called for. Gen. Butler goes on to say thst the war toill be protracted " Gen. Butler's idea that the Mexicans will he "disposed fr peace, when their domestic altars are invaded," is now the common opinion; and the Government ccems to have derided to act upon iu Whatever hopes of a speedy peace were founded opon the policy of Santa Anna, have been abandoned. From lha Congress, I think, there will be less hope of prace, even should we wail till December for its meeting, and then some fix months for its deliberation and action. Tbe government, therefore, has decided to wage war in earnrst, and with all its energies, from this day forward. Tbe expenses attending Iba present plan f f the campaign, by land and sea, now projected and in progress, cannot be lessened by an armistice. There is no doubt that Mexico is ready to treat up-n the basis affirmed by this eovernment or rather that she soon will be ready . . . 1. ..11 1

This looks as if the war is to be pushed with vigor. Maine. The Journal of Commerce of the 29th says, after all the talk, wc believe there is no doubt but the Democrats will have ä majority in both branches of the Legislature and elect their Governor. The majority of tlie Democratic over the Whig candidate will be over 5,000; but the scattering votes will prevent a choice by the people. One Whig and two Democrats elected to Congress, and four vacancies. OrThe Whig Convention of New York, held at Utica, nominated John Young, of Livingston county, as tlie Whig candidate for Governor. He received 76 votes. " Fillmore and Harris rere also in the field, and received strong vote; cn the first ballot. On the tiiird ballot Harris's friends abandoned him and went in for Young. Hamilton Fish, of New York city, late rcprcscntalive iq Congress, is the Whig candidate for Lieut. Governor. The Whig Convention of Massachusetts have nominated the Hon. Geo. N. Uris, and the Hon. John Reed, for re-election to the offices of Governor and Lieutenant Governor of that Slate. 07-David Finn was arrested in Warren county, Ky.Jast week, by an officer from Tennessee, charged with being the chief among a gang of counterfeiter, lately discovered.

Murray met General Taylor, with a part of his force, some distance in advance of the main body, and within 35 miles of Seralvo, on a forced march to its relief. It is positively asserted that the Mexicans are determined to make a strong refinance between Seralvo and Monterey. Ampudia and Arista are co-operating with each other, and their forces are augmenting fast the Mexicans are rallying to their standard from all quarters.

Refusing to accept it, Gen. Patterson compelled them to so to work at their former wares.

Worth's picket guard, coming in from the Monterey side, who appear to be suspicious characters. They represent themselves as raneheros belonging to ibis section, and as having fled from the mountains in order to avoid being pressed into service ; but as they were armed, and had twenty odd rounds of Government cartridges each, and besides told different stories, they ha' e been detained and are in prison. It is thought they are spies aud belong to Canale's party. Ampudia is really at Monterey, and in command of the "'J Vit. army there.

From the New Orleans papers of Sept. 19 The United States steamship Telegraph, Captain Auld, arrived about noon yesterday, from Erazos St. Jasro, touchin? at Lavacca and Galveston. Rv have dates from Camarffo on the 7th in t,e crenillff from Matamoras to the 10th. and from Galveston to the morning of the loth. The Telegraph had on board, at the time of her oepariurc trom the Lrazos, over .5UU sick and dtscharged soldiers. She landed at Lavacca a company 1 of Germans disbanded from the Texan infantry, and j v i luau? uisuaiiucu Jioiij ; also a company at Galveston from the same command : nu brought up to this place I. . ' ace over 200, most of whom have been prostrated by disease. ly one of the passengers direct from Camargo, which place he left on the 7th instant, we learn that an express arrived at Camargo as he was about leaving, stating that Col. Harney had been arrested for disobeying orders. When four days on his march from San Antonio towards Monterey, Gens. Tavlor and Wool sent after him, and had him and his men brought back to San Antonio, where they remain under arrest. Olher passengers, however, equally well informed, contradict this rumor. General Taylor marched from opposite Camargo on the 7th for Seralvo, where he would overtake General Worth, and fall in with the troops under command of Colonels Hays and Smith. In the advance of General Taylor into the interior, he seemed determined to be prepared for any emergency either in advancing or in retreating as he would not suffer either officers or men to take more baggage than they could pack upon their backs. In consequence of this, a number of steamers had reached Matamoras freighted down with "extra baggage," and the quartel of the Sapadores is thoroughly crammed with it. All the supplies, so far, have been sent off by pack mules; and it is expected that there will be about thirty days' provision for twelve thousand men about the time of the -concentration at beralvo; at which place it is generally believed the arrr.y will remain for some time; and many are of opinion that Taylor will not remove until further advised by the p-overnmenL Gen. Taylor believes, notwithstanding the report of the advance of a largo lorce from San Luis Totosi to Sultillo, that he can enter Monterey and even proceed to Saltillo without any opposition whatever. The troops on tlie road now between Camargo and Monterey number near 12,000, and no volunteers were Eufftred to go who could not stand a long march and were perfectly willing. In consequence of this, the regiments that are left were much reduced, very few of them exceeding 500 men, end some less. These rcffiments are from Mississippi, 1; Tennessee 1: Kentucky 1; Ohio 1; Texas 1, (cavalry;) Baltimore battalion, a portion of tho Texan infantry, reorganized, and McCullottgh's and Gillespie's rangers. Gen. Patterson has been left in command of all the lower country between Camargo and the mouth of tho Rio Grande, and he had been instructed by General Taylor to issue an order, prohibiting the entrance of all persons into the mouth ot the river or at tamargo, who had not positive business in the country. Gen. Butler was the man designed for this command, but

the non-arrival of Patterson at Camargo, induced the change. Gen. V. is said to be much annoyed at not being allowed to accompany tlie advance. In Camargo there were between (XX) and 700 volunteers in the hospitals, and they were dying very fast. Sj large a number were sick that it required near a whole regiment to attend them. Those whom the Tenncsseeans left behind seemed to be particularly unfortunate. So enfeebled were tbey that they had to call upon the Alabamians not only to attend the fick, but to bury tlie dead. As fast aa tliee men get able to leave, ti.ev are discharged and sent home. In fact.

Extract of a letter dated Lavacca, Sept. 13. "A rumor has been current for a day or two, that some three companies left by Colonel flarney at the Presidio de Rio Grande, had suddenly siamprdtd upon the appearance of a 5niall Mexican force on the west bank of the river, leaving behind their camp equipage, stores, &LC. One report says that they fired at each other for Mine three or four hours, across the rirer, and that the Texians lot four men. I met with an old acquaintance direct from the Rio Grande, bavin? served a three month's tour. As regards the feelings of the Mexicans as to the war anj towards the American forces, be thinks that they are invctcrattly hostile, and that if General layior should meet with even a partial defeat, the ptpuJation would turn out en masse and that the army would bo entirely destroved. He estimates the whole force upon the Rio Grande at 10,CUO, of which 6,000 were at Camargo and advancing upon Monterey, so that unless negotiation should settle the matler, we may consider the war as just begun."

Edward Stiff, the editor of the Cherokee Sentinel, published at Cedar Eluff, Ala., appears to have been engaged in considerable of a difficulty lately. In one paragraph of his paper of the 29th ult., be tells of the explosion of a gun, which he was firing on the previous Monday, having torn off his thumb. In another he speaks of being shot at the same day, and no doubt the same time, by George Weir, from the door of his 1 own house, and adds : "This shot, however, like all thout effect."

He will await a requisition from the Governor of Mo., in jail, at Van Buren. Since bis arrest, he says that he shot Merediüi for making insulting advances to his wifei but he acquits her of all blame. OThe eastern newspaper press are engaged in discussing tho supposed insanity of Spencer, who lately murdered his wife in Jersey City. Insanity is said to be hereditary in his family. As tbe punishment for the crime committed is death, Spencer of course will escape, from the willingness of the jury to catch at any thing which will raise a doubt so as to save a human being from being legally murdered. Were the punishment imprisonment for life, he would probably be convicted. Another Discoverer of America. Tlie following is an extract of a translation of a letter from Brazil, published in tlie N.
