The State Central Committee have received a letter from this gentlemen in which he says: "I am almost daily in the receipt of letters inviting in to different parts of the State to address the people upon the subject of the approaching Presidential election. Our court commenced an extra session on Monday last, and there will be no vacation for seven weeks, all of which lime, duty lo myself and clients positively requires me to be present. My house has suffered largely from a recent explosion of a magazine at this place, and requires my personal attention in its repair. These will detain me at borne till September, before which I can not enter into the canvass as an elector for the State t large. This I regret exceedingly , for my feelings nd my judgment ort with you and the canst." After that period we learn that it is the intention of Mr. Pettit to mit the sonthern part of the State, and to devote as moeh time as he can spare from his proles ! sional engagements, to the canvass. We make tins no- I I tica that the friends of Mr. Pettit may not be disap pointed should be fail to attend any of the public meetings before September. After that lime be will put on the harness, and the Whigs will find him a whole team nasi a horse to spare.

Horace Greels Calculation.
We copy the following trom the New York Tribune. It is Greely's calculation for the Presidency- His remarks, however, accompanying the estimate, prove tbrt be has no confidence in bin own calculations: 0 ir present estimate of the genere' state of the case is as follows: P. o'mblf Jmr Sro4t. Doubtful. Massachusetts . . . 13 Maine Probably fur Pierce ... I K. Hampshire.... . . 23 Virtu, . ... 8 8.

We have not the remotest doubt of eveiy State which lias been set d-wn as probably for Pierce We only usr the term probably because Greely has employed it. Of the doubtful States wc consider the chances aie iu favor of Pierce in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Connecticut, tnd Louisiana, which give sixty-nine votes, and the vote in Massachusetts and Rhode Island will in some measure depend on the course which Mr. Webster and his friends may pursue. Unless they unite heartily in the support of SStt, these States ma) be regarded a doi btful. It will require the influence of the friends of Webster to carry the little Island State. We give it now, as our candid opinion, that Pierce and King will receive over two hundred electoral votes. Improvements of Indianapolis. There will not be so many houses erected this year as last, but the improvements will be of a much more substantial and important character. A tutich larger amount of capital will be invested in buildings than any lormcr year. The Bates House, a new and elegant edifice, intended u.-i .-.i k...;n... Lnu m1I when .-mnnleted be is a the priJe and ornament of the city. It is 93 feet on 1 i I aiiu uuaiiivs. " . , -- 1 . Washington and 195 feet on Illinois streets, four stories liigh. The front of the lower story, now going up, is l" beautiful cut stone, from Rwckville, Ohio. There will be eight business rooms on the first floor. The uprier part is designed as a first class Hotel, and will conaiii, besides the dining room and saloons, about 120 i sleeping apartments. The whole will be finished in the I most elegant and tasteful manner, under the direction of Mr. Costigan, the architect and superintendent. Mr. Haivey Bates, the enterprising proprietor of the Bates ' House, will spare no pains or expense in its erection. It will be the finest House in the State. Messrs. W. H. Morrison and W. H. Talbott areerecting a fine block of brick stores adjoining the Capital House, four in number, three stories high; and in the ' same block are also the beautiful store house of Adam Knodle, and the new Banking H use of S. A. Fletcher. Adjoining this, and connecting with the same block, is the building of S. D. Tomlinson, intended as a Grocery j store. This store room, when completed, will be de. cidedly the finest room in the State, The basement rill be occupied as the steam press room of the Indiana State Sentinel, and the office and composing rooms will be aluve. Mr. James Blake is progressing with his elegant brick block of buildings on the point opposite the State Bank. This block will contain eight store rooms. The whole four stories high, iron front, and, when completed, will be an ornament to the city. Judge Blackford has commenced a handsome business housc on Meridian struct, opposite the Post office, forty feet front, by sixty-seven deep, three stories high. Wrc understand that he contemplates erecting an elegant block of stores on the corner of Washington and Meridian streets, lo connect with this building, during the next year. Robert B. Duncan, Esq., is erecting a large aud handsome bru-k store nuar the block of Messrs. Underbill and others on Washington street. Besides these business houses enumerated, elegant and substantial private residences arc being erected in various parts of the city, among which we may mention the beautiful residence of David Macy, Esq., on Dela ware street. The improvements this year, are generally of the most substantial character. Indianapolis, with her eight Railroads centering and uniting within her limits, is every day assuming more and more the appearance and character of a city. With these advantage in the center of the most fertile plain in the world, her future population and destiny, no one can tell. She has already a population of eleven thousand, which will be more than doubled in the next ten years. Geh. Pierce bv a Whiu. The following, says the New Hampshire Patriot, is an extract from a letter written from this town, by a New York Whig, to a friend in Albany, and published in tn Albany Argus. The portrait of Gen. Pieroe is a very truthful one, except that he is not "a man of property" in the usual acceptation , , , , , , . , . . f .k 1....A I. MM 1.1 I. a ur. fr, tU r, nnkltA n.l II , w ,,.-. . wrmmmum mm mm mmmwrnu, ... worthy enterprises and benevolent objects, if he was " Frank Pierce is a man of fine address and perso.ial appearance, very young looking for bis age. There is nothing of the aristocrat about him, but on the contrary, he is one of the most affable and approachable of men. As the old saying is, he "has a heart like an ox." His purse and hand are always open to the paor and oppressed. He is a man of property, and has a great reputation as a lawyer. If there is a subscription got up here for anything, yon will always find it headed by Frank Pierce, ani for no small sum either. He is the people's man, and I hope he will be the people's President; and if the people iu other States are as much taken with the Democratic nominee as they are in Vermont and new Hampshire, ( whigs and all) Frank Pierce will be the next President. His name is in everybody's mouth, a .a safe- . a Vt tr a a a I wish every young man in the State of New York could see him and become acquainted with him, for I know they would all like him and would all vote for him.

The extravagance of officials, requiring no Sieater mathematical calculations than simple addition while it gives them the appearance of patriotic rega rd ' lm the interests ol the people, costs the effort of no higher mentcl powers than those which they can command nnd are ready to prostitute. Recently, a Whig editor of this Slate afflicted beyond hope of cure with a cholera ef words, announced with as much fustian and bomhavt as ever inflated the bulletuns of a Suwarrow or the pronnnciamentos of a Santa ,, . . , .. , Anna that he would shortly make some startling developuents in reference to the extravagance of the recent Legislature.

The critical period has passed. The labor of the mountain is over, and, as usual, a mouse is at liberty. The sapient editor has found out what every body knew. The people expected this to be the most evneiisive Legislature they would have un der the new constitution. It had to revise the laws, and adapt them to that constitution. That labor has a been completed altpr a session of over five months. A Whig Legislature of only six weeks session cost over $10.000, more than half the expense of this late session, including the printing of the revision, Ste.

" This is what we call canine ferocity, and forcibly re minds us of a speech &aid to have been made on a wolf scalp bill in the Legislature of a neighboring Stale by one of nature's noble Orators. Here is a specimen: " Mr. Speaker: The Wolfis the most ferocious animal that prowls about oar western prairies, or runs at large in the forests of Illinois.

Boatfc This important declaration, was heralded forth i i the Tribune and the Times, as conclusive evidence o the soundi-ess of Mr. Webster. The Boston Evening Journal, the month piece of Mr. Webster on seeing this announcement says."We are authorized to state, directly and authoritatively, that there is no truth whatever in the above reported convesatioa between Mr. Webster and Tallmadge. "We presume that if Mr. Webster desires to communicate with the public, he will do so directly, and not through the medium ot another paity. 1 he reports whicfTare in circulation with reward to his future course are entitled to no credit." - RWJ ssr- " - ... . .... iLTWe are under many obligations to the proprietors - ... ..

A Just Compliment.
The Washington correspondent of the Coluia bus, Ohio, 1 Statesman, gives the following deserved compliment to Hon. John G. Davis, of Indiana. On Friday laat in the House of Representatives daring the consideration of the right of way and grants of lands for certain Railroads, and after the defeat by a decided Yoie of a grant for a certain Railroad, the Hon. John i G. Davis, of Indiana, the member from the Terra Haute District, sntreeded in obtaining the favorable eonsideration of the House for another Railroad in which his own I district is much interested The House within an boor rejected and favored similar propositions.

These gentlemen never were Democrats. They were both elected to Qaagtcss its Free Soilers and both voted lor Birney in and an Buren in 48. Chase was elected, we regret to say, by the aid of Democratic votes. The Free Soilers held the balance of power and as a choice of evils, the Democrats went for Chase, to prevent the Whigs uniting with the abolitionists and eleeting Giddings. Durkee was the abolition candidate for ! .

The National Dcmociat, at New York, alluding to tho nomi.ttion of Webster and Washington sayi: "This is a feint got up by the Native Whigs, for the purpose of apparently opposing Scott's nomination. The real object is to humbug the adopted citizens into the i idea that "Old Fuss and Feathers" is obnoxious to the Natives, while everyone knows they are rolling his nomination under their tongues, like a sweet morsel.' 0The Jury in the case of Henry Moon on trial for murder, on change of venue from Tipton county, found the defendant guilty of murder in the second degree.

Wishing to g.ve a fan neld to all aspirants, I now say I am not a candidate for the nomination; but will most cordially support the person who may receive it. I will have served my constituents four years in Congress when my present term expires. I have endeavored to be faithful to their interest in all matters of a public and private nature. During my service, I have been called upon to vote up .ii many great National questions, involving the peace and harmony of the Union itself; and I have the proud satisfaction Li have received the triumphant approval of a generous and intelligent constituency. To my kind friends of the old Sixth Congressional District, ' owe a debt of gratitude that I shall never be able to pay, but to their interest I shall faithfully devote myself until the 4th of March next. I earnestly entreat the Democracy of the Third District to cast aside all personal considerations and act for the harmony of the party. We have most important interests at stake in the State and Presidential elections in October and November, and whatever discord prevails in our District, will act as a clog upon our hopes and prospects in the future. I am most respuel fully , your obedient servant. "W A. GORMAN. ...

The Democrats of the fourth ward assembled in large numbers, and raised a tall and beautiful hickory pole with a flag bearing the inscription Pierce and King Wright and Willard, near the residence ol Mr. Alfred J.

Won't Answer We asked the editor mi the ' Sen tioel," a few days ago, to say whether he would, wee our country invaded by a foreign foe, welcome that loa with bloody hands and to hospitable graves; or whether he would run like a coward? Will he answer ow Indiana Journal. Yes, he will. The Editor of the Sentinel always baa boen, and always will be, (or his country, both in peace ( and in war; and always has and always will defend the honor of that country though war may be the conse , 'pence ; and if war comes he will not give aid and i comfort to the enemies of his country by denouncing the war as unjust and unholy. He will not say to the j brave soldier, who returns covered with scars, that those WOUndS were tust V inflicted I, an nemv nrkn m J i i, j " wvu. j , ' fighting in a jnst cause.

Waahing'ton Correnpondence. Washixuton Citt, July 10th, 1852. This day is being spent in heated discussion of the bonus to the Collins line of steamers, between New York and Liverpool. It is strange to see how a wealthy company can induce Congress aud especially Democrats to vote for it. Iron men in Pennsylvania ask to be protected against foreign competitors. This Collins line say they are losing money, and ask the government to protect them against loreign competnors. Collins now gets by contract nineteen thousand five hundred dollars per trip, which is made in less than a month; now '.hey ask to have that appropialion increased to $o3.000 per trip. The Democratic doctrine l.as always l.cen to leave capital tree to seek its own channels of productive, ness. To let capital compete with capital, enterprise i to compete with enterprise, leaving all parties and in lei eats as free as possible. Collins is a mail contractor and says he l as got a bad bargain. You have many mail contractors iu the West who have bad bargains. How would it look to see them come here and ask to have their pay doubled. II they attempted such a thing they would be hooted out of Congress. But if New York with her millions of wealth asks to have thousands upon thousands added to her contractor, she gets it. They say tbey are contend ing lor (he supremacy oi me seas, ana mat tne poein ment should help him . So might any bedy else who are navisating ihe seas say the same thing and ask protec tion. This line is an associated stock company for the purpose of establishing a packet line of steamers from New York to Liverpool. They contracted with the government to carry our mails for $19,50) per trip Now they ask $33,000 per trip, or they say they most surrender the contract. This extra pay is to ccrae out of the pockets of tbc people, and they have to bleed to help this joint stock company to make enormoas fortunes The cause of the Democracy was never more bright or more united. Martin Van Buren goes warmly for Pierce and Kinn. So does John Tyler, and indeed all the con Aiding elements of our party are harmoniously acting r ap tne r iviore anon .
