the members of the court and Presbytery will return to their homes favorably impressed in regard to the institution. We might criticise a little upon some of the speakers; but we forbear. It were unreasonable to expect perfection and to comment with severity would be as unreasonable in us, as it would be in a parent to whip his little child for not succeeding to perfection in its first effort to walk.

The sprina election, for township officers, will beholden in the several townships, on Monday next. The nomination of Roger B. Taney, to be chief justice of the U. States, has been confirmed by the senate. Also, the nomination of Amos Kendall, as post master general.'

At our last dates from congress there had been no final action on Mr. Clay's land bill; it is thought, however, that it will pass both houses.

mous expense of shoe leather, and such imminent peril of shins, toes, shoes, and petticoats? We hope, not only for the sake of the human species, but for the sake of the brutes even which may happen to bo in the vicinity, that this practice may be "nipped in the bud.' A public speaker needs no more than the smiles of approbation. If he performs well he certainly does not deserve the kicks and thumps of approbation such an expression of feeling may become a council of savages, but not of civilized and intelligent men and women.

The grand jury of this county, at their late session, found but two indictments; and one of them w as a case of assault and battery, appealed from the decision of a justice of the peace, upon which an indictment was found of course. This augurs well.

The Circuit court, for this county, commenced its sitting on Monday, and adjourned on Friday. ' "But little business was before the court; and this, in general, of minor importance. Most of the lawyers of the circuit were present; and we venture to say that no Circuit court in the state was ever honored with a more splendid array of talents than ours.

Crawfordsville, April 2, 1836. EXHIBITIONS. Pursuant to notice given in our last week's paper, the literary societies of the Wabash College, gave their second semiannual exhibitions- on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings hist, to crowded audiences, in the Presbyterian church the Western Literary exhibiting on Tuesday, and the Philomathean on Wednesday eve

thus publicly, our satisfaction with the performances; and in this, we think, we speak the sentiment of all who witnessed them. If we may judge of a public performance by the attention given, our conclusions must be most favorable in regard to the excellence, both cf the matter and manner, of the speakers: For however well arranged may be the matter of a public oration however logical and lucid the reasoning however pure the style, or exalted the sentiment, it must be well delivered, or it will not arrest and chain the attention of a common audience. On the other hand, however well a public discourse may be delivered, if it lacks sound sense, though it may arrest the attention for a time, it can not chain, in breathless silence, an enlightened audience. Disgust will be soon seen depicted on the countenances of the more discriminating, and listlessness will reign thro'out the assembly. Our young friends can not desire a more flattering compliment than was given them by the mute attention paid by their audience. The performances of the band were creditable to its members, and contributed much to the interest of the occasion.--We deem it fortunate for the interests of the college, that these exhibitions occurred at the time they did when they could Ixi witnessed by the assembled wisdom of the Wabash country; and we doubt not

From the Albany Daily Advertiser. It appears from the latest account from

Washington, and bv some vcrv violent arti cles in the Globe, that Gen. Jackson is determined to have another war with the Bank. Although it is entirely beyond his jurisdiction, is a State institution, and is supported by men of all panics in Pennsylvania, the General means to interfere, and to use the power of the Government to crush it. One measure proposed is, to prevent the circulation of its bills in any of the collar States; we find that an office-holder of the Government, a petty postmaster in "the interior," has popped up in his place in our Legislature, with a petition no doubt got up per order, and silly enough to propose their expulsion by law. We really do not know'which most to pitty, his ignorance or his folly Such a law would be a disgrace to the statute book, and an insult to the State of Pennsylvania. We are well assured, however, that the prudent part of the gentlemen's party will leave him, on this occasion, in the hitch. The other measure proposed by the Globe is to run on the Bank for specie, and thus break it down. This is an attempt which will recoil on the head of its projectors. The moment this is done, the Bank will call for specie on the other banks in Philadelphia and New Yolk, and they will fall like leaves in wintry weather. The United States Bank has more specie at command than can be drained from it by a return of its present circulation, while the banks of this Slate have, in the words of our own Bank Commissioners, a circulation "practically irredeemable in specie." Any attempt to intefere with the rights or domestic legislation of Pennsylvania will rebound upon the constituents of the party hacks who venture to do so. Surely the country is coming to a pretty pass, when a whole State is to be attacked by General Government because the President is offended1. Let those psendo democrats come out boldly, and avow they are for absolute monarchy at once. We are coming to it faster than any nation of antiquity ever did. Nothing can be done now, unless the President's will and pleasure are known. Local institutions are to be crushed at the word of command; and the legislatures of sovereign States are threatened with sword and bayonet, if the wishes of some of the Administration hirelings are not to be carried out. We say again tolhe financiers of the party, beware how fir you "feed fat the ancient grudge" of an unreasonable old fellow-
