'JO The Com pli.vientart iSurrEK given to Mr. George Feterman, Jr., the late efficient superintendent of the mechanical department of the Madison and Indianapolis Railroad, by the mechanics of North Madieon, last night at the Exchange Hotel, passed off with great eclat. At a quarter before eight the company eat down to a splendid repast, prepared by the propreitors of the house, Messrs. Kerchner & Co., by whom no expense or trouble was spared to render the occasion worthy of its object. After duly discussing the oxi things, '.he cloth was reniovpj, precisely at nine o'clock. Mr. Flirt n then arose, and in behalf of his brother mechanic?, pi eenU'd Mr. Peierman with a piendid go'u chain and pencil, accompanied with a vtiy appropriate and well-timed address, expressive of the utmost good feeling and kind wishes lor his jaoj-ects in life; to winch Mr. P. responded m a most happy and feeling manner. The regular toasts then being .n order, were received with great enthusiasm, after which the evening was interspersed with lively witticisms and etirnng songs from several of the company. On the whole, the affair passed off to the entire satisfaction of all; and we feel certain that, from the demonstration we last night witnessed, Mr. Peterman will ever look back to his connection with the mechanics of North Madison with sensations of profound pleasure. fc-The Cincinnati Chronicle of yester
day has a lettar from a Washington correspondent ol the N. V. Herald, relative to the difficulty between Mr. Clavton and M. Poussin, the French minuter. The Chronicle eays: "It is proper to state that we have had & number of reports from oiher quattere, in corroboration of the statement here given." We only give the paragraph about the woman: "$u5ee it to say," adds the correspondent of the Herald, "that a point of fashionable etiquette, in which a woman is concerned, created a very serious difficulty between the French embassy and the government. This difficulty threw M. Poussin into & state of high nervous bensibility, and hence, in his correspondence concerning the small claims above referred to, he torgot himself, and wrote in such a way as cannot be defended by any principle of diplomatic propriety or decency. "You will perceive, however, that this indirect cause of the difficulty between the French embassy and the administration cannot appear in any part of . the correspondence, or in any of the notices. It has merely tended to give an acerbity and bitlirnNs to the notes of M. Poussia."

Mr. Lincoln, ex-member of Cosgress, of Illinois, has beea appointed Governor of Oregon, In the place of Mr. Marshall, of Indiana, who, "before he left the city, last week, declined the tendered honor; and Col. Hamilton, of h;o, was appointed Secretary of State. . Ind. State Jour. And we venture the prediction now that Mr. Lincoln will not accept the office of Governor of Oregon, tendered him by the Regency; nor do we believe a prominent Western man can be found among the Whigs who will accept the office now bo ably filled by Gen. Joseph Lane. Mark the prediction: Lincoln will not accept it. If he has not already declined, he tcill decline. (-The Indiana State Journal is not very well pleased with the appointment by the Regency of Mr. Noble, of Centerville, to the Land Office in Indianapolis, and characterize the appointment as "most ill-advised and injudicious." We will feel under an obligation to the Journal if it will point out a "judicious" or well "advised" appointment by the Regency, in Indiana.

CO.TI.TI E.vr IS INM CEMSABY. NORTHERN WHIG PACE. F,om the Sahm Gazette, (Vi-) Sept. 14, 1849. Among the pleasanteat indications of the lata elections in Vermont and Maine, is the obvious fact, that a very large proportion of the honest opponents of slavery, who left the Whig party last fall, have since become convinced that the most effectual method of resttan-mi; slaren, is to warm with their zeal the only party which has both the will and tower to effect thai object namely, the Whio rnTV and have acted accordingly, like sensible practicable men, by leaving the party of ''Free Democracy" and voting with the Whigs. SOUTHERN WH1Q FACfc. From the Favarmatt Kep ihlican. ( l hi) Pept. 7. 1843 It gives us much pleasure to announce the complete triumph of the nob'e Whigs of Vermont. This result is more entirely satisfactory ; as it w as a contest between the ttfugs o.i on' side and the Demc-at and Free Sml or Abolition par! v united oi the other. The coahfion, it was framed, wo'.ld In too powerful for the Whigs to oppose successfully, but thanks :o the energy of the glorious Green Mountains boys, they have added one more to their list of victories, in a State which has never yet, even for a single year, beein surrendered to the care of locolocoism nor any other ism. MAINE ALL RIGHT. We copy from the New York Journal of Commerce the following cheering account of the itte election in Maine The Taylorites have been routed most effectually. Brother Democrats, what greeting shall we of Ohio send our brethren throughout the Union? Shall it be said of us that divided and distracted we fell an easy prey
to the enemy? Let us rather show that we can add to the swelling current of Democratic victories that has been awe ping over the Uuion since the advent of the Taylor dynasty. Cin. Enquirer. Maine Elcction. The Augusta Agecoutains
returns for Governor from 353 townships and 47 plantations, with the following results, viz: Hubbard, Dem., 36,026; Hamlin, W., 27,734; Talbot, Free Soil, and scattering, 7741. Hubbard is elected by a majority of about 1200 over ail other votes. Compared with the Presidential vote last November, the democrats have lost, in the above townships and plantations, 2313; the whig", 6726; the free eollers 4071, or more than one-third of their capital. Nineteen townships and 23 plantations to be heard from. Sei ate. Fourteen democrats and 12 whig are Senators elected. Five vacancies, which will be filled by the Legislature with Democrats. So tbe full Senate will stand, 19 democrats and 12 whigs. tlovte Eighty-seven democrats, and f0 whlgs and free soilers are elected; four members to be heard from. Joint Balh'.K democralie majority of be tween 30, and 40, which secures the election of a democratic U. S. Senator, in the place of Hannibal Hamlin, of the same politics, whose term
of service expires on the 4th of March, i51. Thankfcl rot small Favors. The whigs raise great shouts because they were not defeated in Vermont. They are moderate in their expectations. It is evident they have calculated on defeat everywhere else why such almighty province called Vermont? To prevent the wbigs retiring in disgust from any further contest, and to prevent Gen. Taylor's resigning and leaving the abolitionist Fillmore in supreme command, it was
necessary that the democrats should exercise a little magnanimity, and concede to the whigs the Atgerins and federal States which joined the Ua ion, and which many democrats would blush to claim any how. Trenton Daily News. ITCHLoaorotM Thieves. A Scotch paper gives the following accouui of chloroform thieves: A few days ago, a fine pig, ready fer slaughtering was stolen between Dundee and Brechin. The animal was not missed until morning as a towel had been left so saturated with chloroform as to put the mistress of the cottage into a state of unconsciousness, ia which condition so was fcaad bj ktr hBcbtkd.
NEWS FROM HUNGARY. From tfee LiTrrjxx.l Times boh'. ly u Cambria Georget's Armt Starvino. The official Gazette of Vienna states that for some time before the surrender, the corps of Georgey were completely exhausted by fatigue and hunger. For
some time they had lived only on the remains of vegetables and unripe fruit. When, after they had given themselves up, the Russians sent some oxen to their camp, the men did not wait until the animals were killed, but cut off peices with their knivesand swords, and afterslif htly cookiegthem at the fires of the bivouac, engerly devoured them. It should be remembered that the above is an Austrian story. Ed. Georget's Surrender The Vienna Correspondent of the Times, writes as follows, under date of August 29 : I am able to inform you, upon undeniable authority, that the Prince of Warsaw made no terms whatever with, nor promises to Georgey, he having surrendered unconditionally. Whatever may be said or written to the contrary, the character of Georgey will, in the opinion of those best able to judge of the matter, stand as fair and unblemished as ever. In fact, the Hungarian commander had no other choice than to surrender, as, after having done all mortal man could do to escape from the foils into which he had fallen, he found himself with dejected and worn out troops, destitute of provisions, between two powerful and victorious armies. Although I have been adverse to the Hungarian cause from the moment that Kossuth took such an ungenerous advantage of the Emperor Ferdinand's kindness, or more properly speaking, weakness, my endeavor has uniformly been to do justice to the individuals belonging to either party; and Georgey in my opinion, has not only shown himself a right brave and chivalrous leader, but has by hi lant act proved that he is true lover of his country and nation. He saw that the game was absolutely and irretrievably low, and determined to prevent an unnecrssary tffuMou of blood. Russia Pays Herself. I he. () dmsrhc F si has letters from Cracow, of the 27ih ult , stating that the town was in a slate of great excitement cn account of a rumor bing abroad that Russia intended to indemnify herself for her armed intervention in Hungary, by claiming part of Gallacia in the East, and in the West, the citv of Cracow - i and its territories. It is stated that the San and the Vistula will in the future separate the two Empires. Lens Napolkon'8 Reported Plans of Marriage It is reported that Louis Napoleou is now projecting a matrimonial comedian with some Royal line. The well informed correspondent of the Covriei des Rials Un.t, a warm supporter of Louis Napoleon, in a letter of Aug. 30lh, from Paris writes as follows: "The rumor runs (this news comes to us from London) that our President, Louis Napoteon Bonaparte, has demanded and secured the hand of the daughter of the King of Sweden, aged nineteen years. Themotherof Louis Bonaparte, the Queen Hortense, was sister of Eugene Beau'iamais, and the Queen of Sweden, mother of the affianced, is daughter of the same Eugene Beauharnais; consequently Louis Napoleon is cousin gerrnau to the Queen of Sweden. His marriage with her daughter has therefore nothing very improbable iu it. His aid de-camp and most intimate confident, M. de Persignv, departed lately on a secret mission toone of the Northern courts. On the other hand, the Marchioness of Douglas, daughter of the Grand Duchess of Baden, and cousin of Louis Bonaparte, has just arrived at Paris, and the President immediately quitted the chateau of St. Cloud, to come to receive his kinswoman at the Elysee. These journeysofcontidantsand princely relations appear to give some weight to the rumors of matrimonial alliance bruited at London The different parties are stirred up by these reports, recollecting that the Prince of Leuchtenberg, brother of the Queen of Sweden, married a daughter of the Emperor of Russia. It ia theuce concluded that if Louis Bonaparte obtains the hand of the daughter of the king of Sweden, it is with tbe approval of Russia, and that this double alliance, conjugal and political, would give to his imperial pretentions a foundation and an importance which they have wanted until now. These conclusion, certes, would not be without some logic. But is it possi
ble to think that the Czar Nicholas that fanatical
supporterof legitimacy, would forsake that religion and take in part an imperial restoration? In place of making conjectures in the dark, it is wisest to leave to events the task of solving these mystsriea." M. Gailardet (the correspondent aforesaid) proceeds to represent that neither the legitimist nor the Orlean.st cause, has any important weight in France, and that the organs of the President's party have taken great pains to disclaim the ulterior purposes attributed to him. M. Dafaure has even publicly declared, that to express a wish for a revision of the government would be at this juncture "unconstitutional and inopportune." Ominous. Over the entrance of one of the gay drinking saloons on Broadway, N- may be read the following ominous words, in large black characters, "Mourning Goods."

' J-Amkm1mmmtmswamm LATER FROM THE PLAINS. St. Louis, September 29. Jas. Brown, Government Freight Agent, arrived from Santa Fe last night, 20 days out Trade for Dry Goods coll considerable demand for Groceries. Two Americans killed by Apache Indians, and at Los Begas on the 5th insL, the Indians stole twenty government horses; same time two hundred mules. This side of Santa Fe forty Arapohes attacked Brown and robbed him of everything. The next day they gave back some of the mules and left him. California emigrants gave him provisions. Col. Alexander was commander at Santa Fe. Washington had gone against the Indians. Beale was at Taos. Major Stein had a skirmish with the Indians and was wounded in his leg. Bent's Fort has lately been burnt by Chriemie Indians, in the absence of Wm. Eent Several men left in charge are supposed to have been murdered. Several California trains met Col. Monroe, with two hundred and fifty dragoons and infantry, for Santa Fe, at Walnut creek. The trains were all getting on well. Grass plenty. The Indians are eveiy where hostile. Much political excitement f revails at Santa Fe about a convention to form a State Government.
CINCINNATI MARKETS. Cincinnati, Sept. 291, P. M. New Flour, $4:50; old, $5:00. Whiskey has advanced to 20c. Sales of two hundred barrels Mess Pork at $3. Groceries, quiet and unchanged. Weather, cloudy, with appearance of rain. Great Fir in Chicago. On Friday, the 2lst Inst , Chicago was visited by another fire, which swept off nine-tenths of an entire block, destroying some thirty buildings. Although the loss may net exceed $25,000, yet it is a more disastrous fire than the preceding ones, forthe loss falls most heavily on a large number of poor familit-s, the ground being mostly leased and built upon by the occupants.
An infant which, in the conf'ision, had been left
in the cradle, was burned up. Four horses were burned in a stable belonging to a country Hotel. Ch icago lias certainly had hershare of disasters for some years to come. Within six months t,he has been visited with a great i ood, (which destroyed a vast amount of private property, shipping, and carried away three tine bridges which she Ind just completed at a great expense,) four large fires, to say nothing of the pestilence. But let no one fear for Chicago; she cannot be drowned out, burned out, nor yet asted away by pestilence. Her population represents the New England and the Western character combined, and iu view of this fact, who will doubt her continued prosperity in ppite of the plague, fire, and flood ? Bridging the Ohio. The recent decision of Judge Grier, refusiug to grant an injunction to stop the bridge in the course of erection from Wheeling. Va., across the Ohio river, but leaning strongly against the right to obstruct the free navigation of the river, has given rise to much iut-r-esting speculation as to the fate of the mersure. There are two sides to this question, as there are to alt others, and much can be said upon each. The steamboat men, the owners of ferries, and large property holders in large cities, who fear the population will run away from their large estates, represent one side of the question, and the other the general mass of the people. The rule which ought to govern, is the simple one laid down by the Supreme Court, which ought, and no doubt will govern in all cases of real grievance Wherever there is an obstruction to navigation it ought to be removed, but it does not follow, by any means, that a bridge is always an obstruction, any more than a pier, or a ferry. What is meant is a positive hindrance to the free passage of the waters, and when this does not occur, we suppose a bridge can be made, and once made, there is no
doubt of its being a great public convenience. The bridge at Wheeling is nearly constructed, and the people of Cincinnati have recently obtained a charter for a bridge to Covington, the cost of which is estimated at $300,000, with a single span of 1400 feet, and 1 12 feet high, which would seem to be beyond the rech of any steamboat chimney of a reasonable size. N. Y. Express. Locality. Cincinnati Editors seem to have the bump of Locality but poorly developed. The editor of the Enquirer recently located a disgraceful mishap of the Post Master in Rbing Sun at Aurora, and the consequence is he has gotten himself into a suit for slander on the Aurora P. M The statements were ail correct, but he missed the locality eight miles. More recently, Hon. Amos Lane died at his residence, in this city, and the Cincinnati Chrenicle locates his demise at Aurora, and so his death is being published ail over the Uuion. Editors in
i the Queen city ought to be more careful about j localities. There are some other things which Aurora Las credit for which she is not entitled to,
which will receive attention fcereaiUr. Lawrtsctbarg Journal.
