The Markets. As we cannot from the crowd in our columns, give our tables in full, we will state that wheat in this city, ia now bringing 90 cents; bacon, none; salt, all and any prices; corn 2öa30. Hogs $2a2,50. Extra fine. $2,75. The prices at iladittou are about the same for hogs. Extra; for English packers, $3,00. At Cincinnati, the average price for hogs is $3,00 at latest dates. A letter from Terre Haute, States prices of bogs, at $1,50 to $2,25, and "the country filled." Hereafter we shall be able to keep a more regular run of the? markets.

A statement of Ezekiel McDonald, relative to his lata attack upon Senator Hannegan, together with several affidavits relative to the affray at the Attica canal lock, last year, make their appearance in late numbers of the Crawfordsville Fresa. As soon as the press of other matter will permit, probably in our next paper, we shall copy Mr. McD's statement, and as much of the other matter as will be equivalent To what we copied from the other side. " Wc publish in this paper the proceedings of a "Meeting of Citizens." We take this occasion to say that we dissent in many particulars as to the mode of action proposed, and to some of the resolutions, believing them to be erroneous and unjust in point of fact. As the proceedings have been approved, we desire not to enter on a discussion of their merits ; being content to abide by the doctrine of the New Testament. 'Let po man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a holy-day, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath-days ; "Which are a shadow of things to come : but the body is of Christ." Colossians ii, 16, 17. Q-Owinj to the want of proper organization on the part of the wLijr members of the House, the locofocos have been enabled to elect officers who were not the choice of the ichig parti. When will the whigs learn wisdom ? State Journal. We suppose the Journal thinks the whigs of the Senate just as big foola as those of the House. As to when any of them will "learn wisdom," is a very doubtful matter, especially if they rely upon the Journal, alone ! It must use the birch more freely to make them learn better. 0-Tlie Hon. Andrew Kennedy is now lying eick at the Palmer House in this city. He was first attacked on Thursday, by what was considered to be epilepsy. Last evening, however, his disease was pronounced to be small pox, by the attending physicians. We hope soon to have tbe pleasure cf announcing his recovery, let the disease be what it may. fj7" The Ohio Legislature met on Monday Dec. G, and was organized by the election of the following officers: Charles B. Goddard, of Muskingum, Speaker of the Senate; Albert Galloway, of Xeiua, Clerk; and Columbia Downing, of Meigs, Scrgeant-at-Arms. Joseph S. Hawkins, of Preble, was elected Speaker of the House ; Henry A. Swift, or Portage, Clerk ; and Achilles Scatterday, of Belmont, Sergeant-at-Arms. "When annexation was first agitated, and before the southern locos had given the cue to the northern 'douch faces, that at a grand Mass Democratic Con vention, held at Indianapolis, in which the editor of the Sentinel figured conspicuously, it was unanimously resolved, that the locofocos would "retist unto death, the annexation of Texas to the United States." Cambridge Reveille. (gj-There is not one word of truth in the above statement. On the contrary, it is utterly and entirely untrue. But this is the way in which whig editors cheat, deceive and delude their readers. State Sen tinel. It is in some measure astonishing, that the Sentinel should say "there is not one word of truth" in what has long been a matter of history, with which the whole country is acquainted! "But this is the way in which loco editors cheat, deceive, and delude their readers." Cambridge Reveille. The repetition of its unfounded assertion, unsupported by the slightest reason or item of proof, shows conclusively, that the Reveille believes that a lie well stuck to is as good as the truth. " Good. The editors of the New Albany Bulletin are now experiencing the good effects of a "revival" now in that city. In a note alluding .to the subject, the editor says "May Him who comforts the hearts of his people continue to smile upon the efforts now making, in bringing back the 'lost sheep of the House of IsreaV " We hope him Is real in those 6enti ments. We return thanks to our good old democratic friend, Elijah James, Esq., for a present of a bag of most excellent apples, such as he knows how to raise.

C03I31tXlCATIOAS, Ac. Free Homesteads. To the Editors of the Sentinel: The inquiry has often been made "Will not the Legislature, at the present session, enact a law exempting th homestead of every family of two or more persons, from execution and Eale for any debt or obligation thereafter contracted 1" This question is certainly one of vast importance to the people of this State, and it is hoped that the Legislature will take it under' consideration at an early day of the sesrion. Several of the older States have laws on this subject, and the great wonder is, that all of the States have not had laws in existence on this subject long ago. But it seems that we "hasten slowly" in any great improvement in legislative policy. It requires centuries to make a single important improvement a single advance: and when it is made, men think strange why it were not attained at once. In ages gone by, it was thought by some nations, that the misfortunes of a debtor should subject him to severe punishment, to imprisonment, to slavery, to even death itself. Not only this, but the laws of some governments, in the days of their barbarity and savage iuhumanity, even went eo far as to subject the wife and children of the debtor to perpetual servitude and slavery. But such laws could only obtain among a people in the lowest state of barbarism and heathen darkness. Yet such was the law of Rome in the time of the decemvirs; but such laws had to pass away before the march of enlightened reason. Still, age after age, and century after century passed away, and the unfortunate debtor continued to be punished by imprisonment, as though that would satisfy the debt, or benefit the creditor. The debtor was subjected to this species of slavery, and his family to destitution and misery, without any practical good resulting; but, instead of good, inconceivable evil. Well, this blind

policy has almost entirely passed away, and a wiser one been adopted. The inhuman Siiylock may weep over this as well as the ten thousand other relics ofservitude and oppression which are no more. Under sm:h a system of legislation as we have p poken of, the aggrandizement and qualification of the malice of the Few were consulted more than the good. the comfort and the happiness of the Many. Then the people knew not their rights, or if they knew them, they had not the power or the ability to maintain or enforce them. But the efforts of the patriot and philanthropist of all ages, have not been made in vain : no ; and the people are aware of this they are aware that they now possess greater rights and greater comforts than 1 1 lose who lived in other times ; they know that they can now demand, (and with some hope of success,) that which they may deem conducive to their greater happiness and comfort. The most humble, as well as the most powerful, can now, in this country, have a voice in shaping the legislation which is to govern him. Hence, legislation is beginning to be 6haped more with regard to the general and absolute wants of the people. But although it be true that much has been cone, still much remains to be accomplished. v e need not now advert to that system of legisla tion in Europe and elsewhere, which lias produced so much destitution, want and pauperism, with inevitable attendants, a ppalling vice, crime and misery, which renders the sutfering of the masses in that country so hideous ; no, it is full well known the starving mil lions there rise in attestation of the execrable sys tem. Then let us look around, and while it is to-day, raise our hands to stay such evils from overtaking our own heaven-favored land. Already, in some of the older Stales, we see destitution and want prevailing to an alarming extent, the evils of which, we need not now detail, since every journal is filled with an account of tliem. The anxious inquiry now seems to be, "how shall those evils be arrested, how shall they be avoided." They cannot be arrested by subjecting tl.e destitute to greater want, and greater destitution; by circumscribing their means, or by enforcing laws more rigid, and more degrading. No ; the general conclusion now seems to b, that the most effectual way to prevent such evils, is to allow every family, under whatever circumstances, the privelege of acquiring and holding, exempt from execution and sale, a sufficient amount of property to meet the absolute

wants, and afford the absolute comforts of life. This can be done by exempting from execution and sale the Homestead to a limited amount, and a necessary amount of personal property. And surely this could do nobody any wrong; for when one individual entered into an engagement with another, he would do so knowing what to rely upon. Such a law could have no retrospective bearing whatever it could operato only on the future engagements of the parties. Who can doubt the beneficial effects of a law making such an exemption! Who then will withoid his hand from this act of beneficence Let this measure assume to party grounds let the Legislature act as did the Legislature of the great State of New York on this subject, with an eye single to the public good. In the opinion of the humble writer, a law making such an exemption as we have spoken of, would do more to prevent destitution and want, with their sure attendants, vice and crime, than any other legislation that could be adopted. That certainly is a blind system of benevolence which robs with one hand and bestows in an ostensible manner charity with the other. While man can, he will. i it darken every window of hope interpose an insurmountable barrier between man and the acquirement of the absolute comforts of life cut him off from all resource. but wages slate ry ; reduce him to this sad alternative, and at once a feeling of despair is aroused which awakens a demon, and precipitates him in the downward track to ruin. A man thus reduced, with a family to maintain, (to say nothing about education,) goes forth bereft, disheartened und discouraged ; his desire to pay, to maintain and educatei his family, is crushed beneath the weight of his inability to do so. But with a Homestead (small though it might be) for himself and family, with a position in society, his independent and manly feelings would not be destroyed, the soul of hope would not be darkened; hence, he would go forth to labor cheerily, with more energy, and with a far better prospect of success in retrieving his embarassments ; at least, to do what the laws of God and human society require him to do; to support, and give his offspring a moral and virtuous training. Let the Legislature then be actuated by experience and enlightened reason, and pass the law proposed, and it will have at once done much in the cause of humanity. The writer imagines that he can, without any prophetic aid, penetrate the veil of a few coming years, and sec the lowly and frugal cottager's littb children, yet unborn, smiling their cheerful smiles, and lisping with praise the names of those who afforded them, by the timely law, their little humble, though happy home, the needful boon, the very means winch would afford them food and clothes, the absolute wants of life. But here, perhaps, the proud unfeeling nabob will smile the contemptuous smile; but let him remember that'none are so high, but they may be brought low ; let him remember that there is One higher than he, who feeds the young ravens when they cry ; and let him remember also, that there are thousands and millions of the human race, who, by a wrong system of legislation aye, by the very system that made him nabob, are deprived jf even the absolute necessaries of existence. Only think of that system of legislation which subjects one portion of the community to the misery of destitution, merely to pamper and aggrandize another. It is so, and yet grave legislators close their eyes upon it ! Well, the time has come when such evils may be arrested. Then let it be done before these evils become f o deeply rooted that they can be torn up or destroyed only by a disastrous convulsion. Lot it be done mw. If the Legislature will not act, and that quickly, let the fat of the people com up in thunder tones until they do act. Several of the old States have set us a noble example on this subject. We have recently seen the great State of New York enact a law exempting the Homestead of every family of two or more pernor from execution or sale fur any debt or obligation contracted after the passage of the law, where the homestead does not exceed $1,((H) in value. Besides this, the laws of New York make an exemption of a necessary amount of personal property. The law of Georgia on this subject, enacted in 1841, is still more liberal. It exempts from execution founded on contract, in favor of families, real cstite not to exceed in value 1,2(, and aho a considerahl amount of parsonal property. The law of Connecticut, enacted at the last ofwinn "Vt T .f'fr'c1. toe rft tSta Tri tr- J f n rn 0-

stead when it does not exceed in value $300 and the

necessary articles of personal property to meet the real wants of families. The statute of Alabama, enacted in 1832, is also very liberal on this subject. It exempts from "aü legal" process an amount of personal property, reaching about $1,000 in value, and besides this, alt books. The exemption in favor of all books is certainly a wise policy. I believe the constitution of Wisconsin exempts in like manner, 40 acres of land without regard to value. The statute of Michigan, enacted in 1939, exempts from execution books exceeding in value oil the amount of property exempted by the laws of this State. Several other ot the States, I believe, have similar laws on this subject ; but further comment seems useess; however, it may be added that even in England the debtor, if he be a trader, is allowed from 300 to jGUO for his future niaiittenjiice, to put him in a way of honest industry. The writer might add much more, but this communication has already swelled beyond his original design his object being merely to call the attention of the legislature to this subject, where it is hoped, it win üiiu more able advocates tt.an himself It remains to be seen what policy the legislature will adopt on this subject. If it does not move on this subject, sooner or later, the people certainly will. In the estimation of the writer, this measure is of more pressing importance than any that the Legislature could act upon. Why not enact such a law as is proposed 1 It would do more to feed the hungry and clothe the naked and the poor, to prevent destitution and pauperism, vice and crime, than all the alms, than all the charities ever bestowed, simply by allowing the unfortunate to have and hold the means necessary to feed and clothe themselves. Surely the time has come for action. SOLON. Citizen Meeting:. At a meeting of the citizens of Indianapolis at tbe Court House 011 Tuesday evening, pursuant to public notice, for the purpose of hearing the annual report of ttie committee of last year, appointed aid the constituted authorities in suppressing gambling, drinking, and other vices, and to see that the laws of the land are enforced.

On motion of Mr. Cressy, Resolved, That in the opinion of this meeting, gambling is a violation of the rights of property, designedly making its acquisitions by fraud, is directly calculated to contract and debase to the mi st beastly selfishness all the noble faculties of the mind, to prostrate the powerful restraints oi' conscience, to ossify the heart, to obliterate all generous sympathies for the woes of our species from the bosom, and, in short, to prepare a man for the commission of every sin in the catalogue of crime. On motion of Mr. Gurley, Whereas, We have abundant evidence, that although bj the vigilance of the anti-gambling committee, professed gamblers had been mostly or wholly dispersed and driven from our city, yet a number of them have returned and are at this time prowling about our city ; therefore, Resolved, That it becomes us as lovers of civilized society, of our free institutions and of domestic felicity, to pledge, and we hereby do pledge, our person al and individual irfluence as citizens, and our property as far as needed, to free ourselves from those harpies whose influence tends to curse our daughters, and to plunge our sons into degradation and crime. On motion of Mr. Butler, Whereas, The term of service of the anti-gambling committee of last winter has expired, therefore, Resolved, That a committee of three be appointed by the chair, who shall immediately nominate to this meeting fifteen persons to constitute an anti-gambling committee, to serve as such for one year for like purposes, and with like powers, as the former anti-gambling committee. Whereupon Messrs. Brousc, Coe and Culley were appointed said committee. On motion of Mr. C. Fletcher, Resolved, That we confidently expect that the ofScers of justice aud especially the officers of the corporation of the city of Indianapolis, will act with promptness, energy and efficiency, in the detection and punishment of crime, and especially the crime of gambling; and we hereby pledge ourselves to sustain said officers in the prompt and etern discharge of their duties. The meeting was addressed upon the presentation of these several resolutions by Messrs. Cressy, Gurley, Butler, C. Fletcher and Blake. On motion of Mr. Sheets, Resolved, That as members of a religious community, we look upon every infraction of God's moral law with sorrow. , Resolved further, That this meeting has heard with deep regret, that the managers of the Railroad from Madison to this place, have desecrated God's holy sabbath, in fitting up on that day numerous carsj and sending them off freighted with the staples of our country. Mr. Brouse, from the committee appointed to nominate a committee of fifteen citizens to serve during the year as a committee of vigilance in aid of the constituted authorities, for the suppression of gambling, reported the follow. ng names, viz: James Blake, C. Fletcher, O. Butler, E. J. Peck, Alfred Harrison, Wm. Sheets, J. Vandegriff. A. W. Morris, Andr. Smith, Stoughton Fletcher, James Sulgrove, James M. Ray, G. D. Staats, John Childers and John Wilkins.

Democratic Meeting. At a meeting of the Democrats of Vigo County, held at the Court House in said County, on Saturday December 4, pursuant to previous notice for the purpose of appointing Delegates t3 the State Convention to be held at Indianapolis. Judge . Tillotson, was called to the Chair, and E. It. Beutley, appointed Secretary. On motion a committee of three, J. B. Oty, D. Sipeen, and II. Fairbanks, were appointed to

report resolutions, and after a short absence rewrted the following which were unanimously adopted: Resolved, That in the opinion of this meeting, the existing war with Mexico was brought upon the country by the acts of Mexico, and that any other course tlian a vigorous prosecution of the war by the government of the United Slates, would necessarily involve a loss of national honor that while our government is engaged in the war, it is bound by the most solemn obligations of .duty to insist upon and compel indemnity for the wrongs and outrages practiced upon the citizens of this country, previous to the commencement of hostilities, and which the generous forbearance of our people alone has prevented them from enforcing long before the commencement of the war that while we are convinced that our government would not prosecute the war for the mere purpose of acquiring territory, nor would the people of this country justify a war waged for such an object; yet as it'is out of the power of Mexico to pay such indemnity in money, it is entirely proper and just in our opinion for our government to accept the indemnity which is our righteous d .e, in territory. Respited, That when our country 13 engaged in waging war with a foreign nation, it is the duty of all our citizens to sustain our government with unanimity, and render it every aid which their united strength can alTord ; and that every attempt to create divisions in our councils, or estrangement between the people of different sections of the Union is alike unpatriotic and worthy of reprobation. Resolved, That while we deeply deplore the politi cnl evil to be apprehended from the institution of slavery, and could heartily wish them mitigated, we at the same time regard that institution as one over which Congress of the United States, has no control either as it may exist in tiie states or the territories of this Union. That the right of the people of each political division of the republic, whether state or territory, to legislate for themselves in all matters. not relative exclusively to the general welfare indefeasible, and that every attempt on the part of Con gress to restrain or preclude the exercise of such rijrlit would be to sanction the principle asserted by the British Parliament before the Revolution, of their right to legislate for the colonies in all cases; and that so long as we continue to cherish the memory our revolutionary ancestors as a sacred legacy we can never consent to any invasion of the principles for which they perilled their live?. On motion the ineetinir proceeded tbe apnointmen of delegates, and the following named gentlemen were chosen to represent Vigo County in the State Con vention.

E TILLOTSON, President. Edwin R. Bextlev, Secretary. A Letter from Mexico. Puebla, Mexico, Nov. 4th, 1947. To the editors of the Stale Sentinel: The frag merits of the grand army which Santa Anna had col lected for the defence of the capital, and which Gen Scott, by the explosive force of his car.non had scat tered to the four winds of heaven, were disposed to question the right ot Gen. Lane to advance with hi brigade upon tnat city. For this purpose they ha collected at a city of about 12,000 inhabitants called Humantla, situated a little off the main route and about half way between Perote and this place, to the number ot some five or six thousand troops, consist ing of lancers, infantry, and six bras six pounders lhe existence of this force ahd their hospitable tnten lions towards us, was ascertained upon good authori ty tor several days previous to the Oth of Oct. O the morning of that day, Gen. Lane being then with in ten miles of the city of Humantla, and neither hav ing the fear of Santa Anna before his eyes, nor be lieving in the doctrine of "stoppage in transitu," took with him the gallant 4th Indianians, under Col. Gor man, Major Lally s command, Col. Wynkoop, Penn tylvania regiment, l ratt s and iaylor s Batteries, ai Walker's dragoons, leaving the Ohio regiment topro tect the train, provisions and baggage, in all about two thousand men, "good and true," to try the issue and it being an issue of Joel and not of law, eac party prepared to put themselves "upon the country.' Walker's dragoons in advance, followed close by the Indiana regiment, the dragoons, with Walker at thei head, entered the city, as a whirlwind enters a forest driving the lancers before them and taking their can non ; but owing to their small numbers, (only about 20 strong,) and being too far 111 advance of the in fantry to be supported by them, the Mexicans recover ed some of their cannon, and killed the brave and im letuous Walker. The Indiana regiment, led by its brave colonel, rushing forward at full view, had now gained the city, and discovering the critical position of Walker s command, threw themselves with resist I ess frce UI)orl theencinv. and "like the ocean's mif-h ,v swi!r when Iitavin7 to the tempest's win?, tliev ey I rj 0 C7' hurled them on the foe;" the fire of their musketry swept every street, avenue and square, and reverberated like distant thunder through the ancient arches of the city. It was close, deadly and decisive. The columns of the lancers disappeared before it, like smoke before the tempest: in half an hour not an armed Mexican was to be found. The brave Indianians were the first to place their flag upon the arsenal, and to tear down that of the enemy. The capture of Major Iturbide and Col. La Vejja, the destruction of several wagon loads of powder, the capture of large quantities of mules, provisions and clothing, and the entire route of the Mexican f rces assembled here are the results of this action ; an action in which the chivalry, courage and discipline and steadiness of the gallant 4lh Indiana regiment was placed in bold relief, and the stigma of falsehood, envy and detraction forever placed upon their slanderers an action in which the whole world will 6ce, beyond a doubt, that the brigade of Gen. Lane at large, and the 4th Indiana regiment in particular, are determined to "go ahead" and not believe in the doctrine of "stoppage in transitu." Reporter in Mexico. New Orleans, Nov. 27th, Editors State Sentinel : (Jtnt'tmen Col.
