We call attention to tbe agricultural address of Gov Wright, published in this paper. It contains much practical information that will be of great utility to onr readers. Public attention seems to be awakening on this subject, and Gov Wright deserves great credit lor h.s exert. on; m collecting tbe aprcultural and manulac ;urmg statistics of the State Under the encouragement awarded by the Legislature agricultural societies are now being formed in most of tbe counties, and n the spirit is kept alive, the country will soon see the oenefit 01 this laudable spirit of emulation ui improved stock, improved farms, and improved crops The Democratic party of the country now num ters in its ranks the Secessionists, the Abolitionists, and the politicians who are willing to coquette with stboli.on and Secession, and to co-operate with them, in order to regmn power. These three classes embrace all the opponents to the present Administration. The Whig party and the Wh g administration now present the ouly rallying point for the conservative men ol the country the enemies of violence, disorder, and coufusion the mends of the Constitution and the Union Ind. Journal There is more of the concentrated essence of baretaced impudence in the above extract than in anything j we have seen for a long time Who ia it that is now ! unwilling to make (ho administration tbe rallying point? We answer, every whig in the country who is now. with the Editor of the Journal, plotting to defeat the re-elec won of Mr. Fillmore to the Presidency. Every whig journal and every whig politician, ami whig voter who are now endeavoring to supplant Mr. Fillmore by tbe nomination of Gen. Scott, whose sole cl"im to the Presidency is his non-committalism on thes questions. If Millard Fillmore, in this crisis, has been the saviour of the country, why crucify him in a Whig Convention by the nomination of one whose opinions are unknown? Mr. Fillmore came into the Presidency at the most critical period of our national history. Gen Taylor, under the advice of Seward and his Galphin Cabinet, had adopted the non-action policy in reirnrri to legislation for the benefit of the Territories. Texas claimed New Mexico, and was about enforcing that claim at the point of the bayonet, and Taylor, with his regular troops, was preparing for resistance, and three months more would have involved our south-western border in all the horrors of civil war. Gen. Taylor died, and as the belis chimed ont the funeral peal, the patriots of the nation saw the dark cloud which hung over the land fringed with bright hope They looked to Mr Fillmore as a a national man to save the country. He immediately dismissed the Galphin Cabinet that had hung like a millstona around the neck of the departed hero, and changed the policy of the administration. Looking for suppcrt to the country rathec than his party, he immediately recommended the adoption of Mr. Clay's compromise policy. He sought the advice of Cass and Dickinson, and Uta national men of both parties Mr. Fillmore was a northern man, and we now pro poe to examine how he was sustained by his northern political frierds. There were in the House of Repre sentatives from the northern or free States, 74 whigs and 43 democrats. On tbe passage of the Texas boundary bill, which was the great measure that paved tbe way tor the compromise, 24 northern whigs and 32 northern democrats voted for it, and 50 northern whigs and 11 northern democrats voted against It On the passage of the fugitive slave law, which was a measure that Mr Fillmore had more at heart than all ethers at the time of its passage, it received the vote of two northern whigs and 28 northern democrats whilst 72 northern whigs and 25 northern democrats refused to support it. When Mr Fillmore was struggling to save the country, his northern friends refused to sustain and support him, now after he has breasted the storm of opposition, : and with the aid of Democrats, been enabled to carry out this policy and restore peace and qmet to the coup.try, those very men who were opposed to his measures cry oat-' The whig jarti and the whia administration prtmnt tht onlu rallytny point far the conservative men of tht country .'' Bot in rallying, they must only rally until the election comes on, then they must rally against him aad go tor tbe " Hero of an hundred battles." j Mr Fillmore's measures, they say, are right; but they dare not submit them for the verdict of the people No one more Molently opposed the policy o'. the President on the compromise measures than the Editor of the Indiana Journal, and no one is mora opposed to the nomination of Mr Fillmore than this same " conservative " Editor The name of Gen WiNriiiD Scott, which j stände .n gleriog capitals at the bead of his editorial oolumn, it a standing refutation of his lis lip service ia favor of the administration of Mr. Fillmore. The poll- I y of Mr. Fillmore on tbe compromise measuies was either right or it was wrong If it was right, sustain him, if it was wroa, then select another champion. If Oea. Scott t a oandidate, the democratic party will make the issue with him oa these measures If Fillmore as the candidate, the issue wtli be ea the national i pol.cy of the whig party. I

We clip the following from the New York Day Book. The friends of Governor Whitcomb will be gratified to hear that his health is improving. Senator Whitcomb. This distinguished citizen of Indiana has been for some time in our city, but in too feeble a state of health to mingle in social or political circles. We are glad to hear that his health is daily improving, and that he will be able to take his seat at the next scsion of Congress with renewed vigor. Mr. Whitcomb is one of our most remarkable men If ever the country had cause to be proud of the genins of its institutions, which so readily recognize and reward seit maue men. as individuals wuo arrive at great honors without tbe advantages of early education i , raun i or family patronage, are called among us. our Republic may well exult over the career ot James hitcomb. After picking up from others through extraordinary difI tioulties, a slight knowledge of grammar and arithmei tic, Mr. Whitcomb made himself master of law, Latin, Greek, French and a more than respectable acquain1 tance mith astronomv and natural history, few are so well versed in the English classics as the senator, and m Ins appreciation of genius he is an euthusiast. Mr. 1 Whitcomb has Ailed all the superior political offices in Indiana He was twice governor ot and is now United States Senator from Indiana He for many years commanded an immense law practice, and is at present perhaps the most influential man in his State. Mr. Whitcomb's principles are democratic, and he brings to their support a powerful intellect and profound erudition. 25 Why is it that the Democracy of the present day prefer going to England for such articles as can be manufactured at home, to purchasing of our own citizens? Indiana Journal For the same reason that Whig Railroad Presidents buy their iron in England Because they can get it much cheaper. Connsesvillk, Oct 14, 1851. Dear Sia Having my attention called to an article (Editorial) in your Daily Sentinel of the 11th inst., in which you say that I am "a Freesoiler, an enemy of the compromise measures, and a supporter of George W. Julian for Congress," allow me the privilege of placing myself tight on thece questions before the Democracy of Indiana. Flfwt, then, I am not a Freesoiler, but a Democrat. having acted as such from 1840, tbe year I came to this State, until the present time. In 184b I was the Democratic nominee of Union county lor the Legislature, and was beaten by a Whig, because I was a Democrat and a friend of the Democratic administration of Mr. Polk and the Mexican War. In the year 1849 I was nominated for the Senate by a Democratic Convention, composed of the sterling Democracy of Fayette and Union, when Dr. Trembly and Major Watt were my competitors, and I am proud to say I was elected by the same Democracy. My course in the Senate is before the State, having there acted with the Democracy in every Democratic measure and election (except in the election of Judge Elliott as President Judge of my own Circuit, when, along with every Democratic member from the Circuit except one, and he a Freesoiler,) I voted for Judge Elliott at the request, and knowing him to be the choice of a large majority of the people as well ns the Bar of that Circuit, which were represented by me. That 1 am "an enemy of tbe compromise measures," siirh is nil the lai't Ralievino that In sei-aral msniirA. .j ,,y Cön&re9S to the whieh eotl)d then done, I, as oo-Editor of tbe ''Chronicle," endorsed these measures as a whole, although I obiected to them as I still do to certain provisions of the act commonly called the Fugitive Slave Law. I hold and have always held that the North was bound by the Constitution, in letter and spirit, to deliver up, or allow the recapture of the fugitive from labor, (meaning the slave.) but my objections were that it operated against the free blacks as well as the slave, preventing their being heard in defence of their freedom, and making the certificate of the Commissioner conclusive against this right. The joint resolution offered by me in the Senats last winter as an amendment to that law, asked nothing more than the remedy of this evil, and did not seek a repeal of this law as many understood it to do; and I am glad to say that the late decision of Judge Catron, and the course of decisions by the other Judges of the U. S. 8. C. in the construction of this law, have done much to remove my objections 1 it; a law passed by a bare majority of the Senate, and which divided the vote of lud iana in Congress, not one ol her senators having voted tor the same ; certain 'v 1 under these circumstances I ought not to be charged you as an enemy to tue compromise measures. That I supported George W. Julian in opposition to Mr. Samuel W. Parker for Congress, I freely admit, but in doing so it was not because he was a Fteesoiler. Mr. Julian was the choice of a large majority of the Democracy of the District in which I lived and represented. As the personal friend of Mr. Julian, I preferred him to Mr. Parker, and believing that he was with the Democracy on many of the leading measures of the dar as held by them, to all of whioh as a Whig Mr. Parker was oppoied, I was induced to use my influence and cast my vote lor this gentleman, and not because he was a Freesoiler, as one would draw from your editorial. By inserting the above in your paper at your earliest eonenience, you will confer a favor on Your most ob't serv't, JOHN S REID. Hon W J. Brown, Indianapolis. Episcopal Chorch in Ohio.

MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER SO, 1851.

Pub. Document. Our thanks are doe Senators Soule, Chase. Seward, and Mangura. for valuable Pub. Documenta. Ohio ami Pennsylvania. We shall not trouble our readers further with the detailed report of the election returns in these States until the aggregate vote is received. The whigs have been routed horse foot artillery and Voltiguers. Bigler's majority in Pennsylvania will reach twelve thousand and Wood's majority in Ohio, will be near twenty thousand and his vote will exceed the combined vote of V inton and Lewis the Whig and Abolition candidates. The whole Whig ticket for State officers and Judges is defeated. The Legislature Domocratic in both branches.

Wood, although that gentleman, in Ins maugural address, took strong grounds in favor of the modification of the fugitive slave law. So much for its sincerity in its advocacy of the compromise measures. Indiana Journal. The Journal is mourning in sadness and gloom over the defeat of Samuel F. Vinton, who voted against the fugitive slave laxe, and opposed the measures of adjustraent recommended bv President Fillmore. So much J for its sincerity, in Us advocacy of the compromise measures. on ought to hold up your head Mr. Dcfrees and rejoice that an enemy of the compromise one who . 11-1 . . 11 refused to mate the present W hig administration a ralyinv point, is deleated, and not like JVlr.L ormacx waix rith you head downwards.

C7"Owing to the excessive drouth and low stage of water the whigs have great difficulty in ascending Salt River. No wonder Mr. Vinton was so strong an advocate of river improvements. Hon. John S. ReidN Letter. We cheerfully give place in our columns for Mr. Reid's letter. We were led into the belief that Mr. Reid was a free soiler from the circumstance of his receiving the free soil vote when elected, his uniform support of Mr. Julian, and his votes in the Legislature, to get her with his " Joint Resolution in favor of freeaain," ; to which he alludc. In that Resolution our friend Reid objects to the fngitive slave law, because some of the provisions of said law are in opposition to the ennobling principles of human freedom, promulged in the declaration cf our national independence and endangering the liberty of onr fellow men, especially those previsions by which a trial by jury is denied, the writ of habeas cor- 1 pus refused, and a double fee is allowed to the Commissioner for the performance of his duty. The free soil member which Mr. Reid alludes to is George Evans of Henry county, and if our friend George thinks himself injured by the allusion, our col umns are open for his defence. Let justice be done to all is our maxim. tood. The Cincinnati Gazette (whig) of Friday morning, three days after the election contains the following: THE ELECTION. It is difficult to learn the state of the vote in this good onnty of Hamilton. We know that the whigs are used op, here as elsewhere in the State. There is no changing the fact, by compromise, coalition, or otherwise, but what the majorities arc is not easily ascertained , for the thousand and one office! s voted for, but we shall learn in due time.

From the Detroit Pree Pres. Whig Tarifls. Tbe Advertiser was out, the other day, with au article squiuting awfully towards tbe re-enactment of a high

protective taritt, to eat up the proceeds of the toil ol the western farmer, and build up the mushroom aristocracy of the loam and the spindle, in the overgrown manufacturing cities of the East. The stereotype phrase, "a home market a home market' ''stuck out"' considerably throughout the article in questien, and particularly so in the pathetic appeal to the farmers to let that print take care of their interests in this regard. Europe la breaking down our ''home market.'' quoth the Whig prints and politicians. "Her grain is sold as cheap as ours, nay cheaper,"' say they, and this 'breuks down our manufactories!" And so the changes are rung continu ' ally on this lertile theme. '"Our exports.' says one. ''are diminishing yearlv." and we sometimes think that that these 'protectionists'' believe what Ihey say. On this point -e have only to remark that, as "fignre won't tic,' we win give the figures lrom the 1 reasury reports, to exhibit the lallacy ofthe assertion: Our exports were in 1844, $99,715,179 1845, under expiring Whig tariff of 1842,. 102,141,893 1847, under Democratic tariff, 150,057 .464 1851, about 160,000,000 To one single country alone, Great Britain, wc sent: To June ,1850 32 1 ,326 bbls " " 1861, 1,054,731 bbls This looks amazingly like a falling off in exports, doesn't it?

TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 21, 1861.

More about the late Consul at Havana. The following is an extract of a letter from Capt. R. M Ellis, of Washington Citv. who was a Captain in the ill fated expedition to Cuba. Cant. Ellis, with whom we have a personal acquaintance, is a gentleman of character and standing, and we have no doubt the letter states the facts as they occurred. Consul Owen has been remov 0. ed bv the administration. He will return to Georgia where he has hosts of friends . and will no doubt undettaxe to justify his conduct under his instructions from the administration. Mr Owen is a gentleman in his at , . .. . . ., , , r . r i puiirlniAnt tint ic x r . m 1 1 1 1 . i v timl.l anil tearful ol re. , - .-'. sponsibility . and his fear of giving offence to the admin istration wns no doubt the cause of his strange conduct, His removal is but the beginning of this question, and mark our prediction it in the end Mr. Owen does not show that bis instructions were of the most stringent character. We however, refer to the following extract from he letter of Capt. Ellis, which speaks for itself: "On the 28th, I was made a prisoner, and treated very kindly nntii I reached Havana, when we were chained (ick and teounded) togethei. " Upon an examination being made, I and some others were sent to this hospital, where we have every attention and are treated in the kindest and most gentlemanly manner by the surgeons and students. " Of eur consul, here, I have nothing to say . he came once to the prison, for some ten minutes, and insultingly told 150 men, who were in chains, that the proclamation of the President prevented him from doing anythiug for ns. In the hour of need came a friend, like a ministering angel from Hearen Mr. W. Sydney Smith visited us every day i he is secretary to the British consul general. What a rebuke to our consul was his conduct! He never came empty handed, nor with mere trordt of comlort ; but clothes, segars. money, and many other articles were brought in abundance. Our consul had refused us books or papers; Mr. Smith furnished both American papers at that so that we could read, with pleasure, the account ofthe meetings, Sec, held in the States. God bless that young man ! The American people should rise up en masse and thank hi-n! I could rill a doren sheets in tellimr von of his j f ,j?rous acts to myself; he has been particularly kind, I jiid if the rules of the hospital w ould Drmit. everv thine in Havana would lie at my service. Through lats influence many American gaat applied in vain, gained adinitts with Mr. Smith, raised SI ,700 fo tlemen, who had betöre tance to see us. 1 hey, for the relief ol those sent jy rMiQlll Jenny Lind. We learn from the Buffalo Courier, that this queen of song, after her visit to Toronto intends spending two or three days at Niagara, to bid adieu to a scene, the beauty and sublimity of which have fascinated her so strongly that she feels loth to resume her universally acknowla home. She will then proceed direct to Cincinnati, and return from thence by Columbus and Cleveland, through Rochester to complete the Eastern portion of her tour in the Atlantic cities she will thus avoid what she fears the journeys on the Lakes at a period ofthe season when traveling ceases to be an enjoyment, and when the weather is proverbially uncertain. By this arrangement she omits entirely Detroit, Chicago and Milwaukee. IT More than one thousand emigrant wagons passed through Indianapolis during last week, all bound West. The number of emigrants this season has been greatly augmented in consequence of the passage of the bounty land bill. Many an old soldier who has been a tenant all his life, is now enabled to become a free holder and be a free man indeed. Others by this means have secured homes for their children, and who are now flocking by thousands to cultivate these fertile, but hitherto unpro25 ductive lands. May the blessings of Heaven go with them, and may they multiply and replenish the earth. Cincinnati Type Foundry.

A number ofthe counties "of this State have held Fairs this Fall, and the Farmers, Mechanics and Manufacturers have been enabled to compare the results of their labor and skill, much to the credit of the competitors. And it will require no little exertion for those ol Marion County, to prepare, not onlv for the contemplated County Fair , but for the State Fair also, whioh will be held next Fall ; when a comparison of the industry and productions ofthe various parts of State will take place. By order of the Board, CALVIN FLETCHER. Pres't. R. Mavhf.w. Sec y. Tne Money Market. The N. Y. Journal of Commerce, of Friday last, remarks as follows: " There is more activity in our money market. The banks having lost their fear of further important exports of specie, are now discounting nearly or quite the whole of their receipts, and there is much paper negotiating in the street. It would appear at first signt, from the rates at which the latter is selling, that the market is more stringent, bnt after the check which this business has re ceived, the appearance alluded to is not remarkable, The fact that there is a better demand for good paper, outside of our banks, is of itself a favorable feature in the market ."

Several boats aJ reads run there regularly, and when there is, as there soon will be. a railroad from Dubuque to St. Paul, the business ol the latter place will be increased tenfold. Nature and art unite to make Minnesota one of the greatest points, not only for business, but also for pleasure, in the Union. In some parts the country is steep and hilly, in others wetind lear level prairies interspersed with benntiful lakes, so beautiful that they appear ai most like artificial bodies of water, where the hand ol art has been exerted to the utmost to adorn and beautily them. These lakes aliound in all kinds of delicious fish, pike, salmon, trout, &c., and are all to be found there in such abundance that they can le seen swiming about on the clear surface, apparently askiug to be caught and eooked. Game of all kinds is abundant, and during tha huntiug season many of the sportsmen eonld find much finer game ami much finer sport in Minnesota than elsewhere. Thev can at any time come across deer, and they will sometimes even fall in with a buffalo. And birds of all kinds they can have here from the quail to the crow, if such they fancy. To a person wishing to see the real West that is, the West where civilization ha uot as yet made the first step towards imp. ovement, where the poor Indians con tinue to dwell, hunting and fishing, as did their forefathers, and living in their primitive simplicity, it is now necessary to go to Minnesota, say to St. Paul, which is at present like the stepping-otf place, where the busy din of business and the improvements of civilization are at an end, and from whence they can look at Nature in all her grandness and simplicity. Aadwheu there, by what grand and magnificent scenery aie they surrounded! hills and vales, covered with majestic forest trees, their different foliage, light and dark, mingling together, and forming a picture far more beautiful than could be produced by the hands of the greatest artist ; here and there fine lakes in the midst of forests, lakes on which can yet be seen the Indians, paddliug their light canoes, either for pleasure, or to convey themselves from place to plaee, in search of game, fruits and risb, tor their nourishment. To persons who, season after season, visit fashionable places of summer resort , such as Saratogo, Newport, Rockaway, &tc., where tbe pleasures aul pastimes of each season are but a continual repetition of what they have seen and what they have done, over and over again, at the same places, until, as far as change of scene is concerned, they might as well remain at home, how much more delighted they would lie if they could but persuade themselves to abandon what are considered the places of fashionable resort, and direct their course to Minnesota instead, where all is new, and where the scenery is, at the same time, much more varied and beautiful than they can find elsewhere. The day is not far distant, when persons seeking pleasure during the sultry summer month will go to the western watering places in preference to the eastern, for the facilities, for travelling, both natural and artificial, will, in less than two years, enable persons to go from New York, the great emporium of the Union, to St. Paul, in a shorter space of time than is now occupied iu travelling two or three hundred miles. Thus, when the railroad is completed from Du'uque. the distance from New York to St. Paul will be accomp.i 'ed in about sixty hours. And persons from the south will be enabled, by means of railroads, to reach a delightful summer retreat, without being exposed to the dangers of the lake, or subjected to the inconvenience usually encountered on the Ohio river. The Falls of St. Anthony, although not so awful as the Falls of Niagara, are in many respects more pleasing, for although they do not strike the beholder with the same degree of wonder at a first view, they are surrounded by so many striking natural beauties that one never tires looking at them, and Niagara twice seen becomes tiresome, for there is only the same deafening ronr of waters, and one or two curiosities connected with it wonderful works of art. but few natural beauties, things that arc seen once are as much appreciated as if seen again and again. From the Ronton Tvaveler. Late fxom Liberia. Our files of Liberia papers to June 18, indicate steady and quiet prosperity, with few exciting events. James K. Straw, the English agent, continues his advertisement, offering a premium of fifty dollars for the best five acres of cotton, and promising to furnish the means to any competent persons who wish to make the experiment. The Herald, in an editorial article, urges attention to the collection of India Rubber, as a new and profitable branch of Liberian industry. The writer believes that the trees are abundant in some parts of their territory, and thinks the natives may be induced to gather it and bring it in for sale. The U. S. Brig Perrv. Capt. A. H. Foote, arrived at Monrovia, June 16, in 9 days from St. Helena, all well. He reports that the slave trade on the " South Coast " is " on its last legs." Farther north, it is already nearly extinct. About June 1. a tire broke out in the new town of Buchanan, at grand Bassa point, and consumed five houses. In all other respects the new settlement was prospering. The natives in the region were delighted with the change since the expulsion of the Fisherman Grando. In Bassa large' quantities of palm oil were coming into the different settlements ; the farmers at Bexley were planting large quantities of arrow-root . and there was a prospect of a large crop of rice. The brig Sea Mew arrived at Monrovia May 18th, 7t days from New York, with 15 emigrants The Sea Mew lay 15 days at Sierra Leone, where strenuous efforts were made to persuade tbe emigrants to remain; but they all preferred the New Republic to a British Colony. Extracts from the British Captain Forbe's book on " Dahomy and the Dahomans," accusing the Liberians of " buying and selling God's image," had reached Liberia in the newspapers. Tbe editor of the Herald, after copying tbe accusation, closes his remarks by saying: " The whole thing is too ridiculous to be treated seriously, and deserves no further notice from us, than a flat contradiction, whieh we unhesitatingly recoid " The editor says that the receiving of " pawns," as practised, according to Captain Forbes, by the English, on the Gold Coast, is forbidden by law, arid not practised iu Liberia. April 25, the barque Gem, from New York, touched at Monrovia, having on board the Rev. Robert Bolton and lady, Presbyterian Missionaiies to the Gaboon, or rather, to the new station in that vicinity. The Hon. S. ;A. Benson had been to Tradetown, as Commissioner from the President, to compel the native "King" in that neighborhood to live in peace. All promised compliance but one, who was told that be mutt do it, or troops would be sent to drive him out of the country, for the government was determined to stop the war. This brought him to terms, and arbitiators wie soon to meet and settle all tbeir " pallavers.'' Judge Benson has also been about forty miles inland, with an exploring party, to select a site in the mo intainous region for a new settlement. He found the country, fertile, well wooded and watered, and the natives friendly, and quite superior to those near ihe coast. He selected a site some thirty miles inland from Bexley. The emigrants by the brig Alida, from New Orleans, were doing well at Sinoe. There had been no cases of small pox among them sinoe they landed ; nor had there been any de.it hs except four chddreu. They had nearly all passed through the acclimating fever, and were at work on their farms. One of them had built a large boat, propelled by paddle wheels, to ply between different settlements on the Sinoe river. The emigrants by the Baltimore, from Savenah,were all Isaded in good health and spirits. One of them brought a steam saw. mill with an engine of twenty horse power, which the editor of the Herald thinks too large, though it may be successful, notwithstanding. A HaaD Case. "Will yon pay me this bill, sir?' said a tailor to a waggish fellow, who owed him a pretty long bill. ' Do you owe anybody anything sir' said tbe wag. "No, sir,' said the tailor. "Then yon can afford to wait." And off he walked. A day or two afterwards the tailor called again. O-u wag was not at his wit's end yet ; so tnrning to his creditor, he said: "Are you in debt to anybody? " "Yea, sir,' said the tailor. "Why don't you pay? " "I've not the money." "That's just my case, sir. I am glad to see yon can appreciate my condition; give me yonr hand' " ILTGeneral Foote of Mississippi, has announced his intention to resign his seat in the U S.
