Wc have no doubt that the at'.tliir can write; but it won't do to treat on ficls, anil conclude by saving that it w as all imagination. We 'hall at all times be thankful for original matter, suitable for publication in the Time but communications on any subject, must be ac companicd by a responsible name. We have been requested to state that a niertiii!; of the citizens of Rising Sun, will be held at the Presbyterian Church, this evening, (Jis-h-2t,) for the purpose of considering the propriety of digging a public well. It is hoped that all who are fond of a drink of pond coll naUr in warm weather, will attend the. meeting, and say "Go a-head'' with it. REMOVAL TIC KET. At a meeting of the Nominating Committee for Dearborn county, held nt Wilmington, on Hie 2-Hh inst , Mr. John Myers va called to the C hair, and Col. Henry Hopkins was ap pointed Secretary. The object of the meeting was then stated by the Chair to be to nominate a candidate for the State Senate, in the room of Horace Basjctt, Esq. Whereupon, on motion, DANIEL PLUMMER, of Manchester, was nominated lor State Senator all the members voting in the affirmative but one. It was then Resolved, That the proceedings be signed by the Chairman and Secretary, and published in the Palladium and Whig at Lawr ji.ecbnrgh, and in the Rising Sun Times ; and that said papers be requested to insert the name of Daniel Plumnior on the list of candidates, and withdraw the names of Col. Johnson Watts and Horace I-'assctt, Esq. Resolved, That we request the co-operation of all the friends of the removal of the County Scat of this rounty, to carry this matter into e licet. The Committee then ad journed. JOHN X YE R3, Chairman. Hk.hhv Hermes, Sec'y. fi7It will no doubt be gratifying to the friends of the removal of the County Sent from l.awiencel urjh, (o learn that Col. Watts and Mr. B issett have consented to have their names withdrawn from the list of candidates for the State Senate, at the approaching ( lection. These gentlemen have acted an honorable and noble part in thus yielding up any claims which they may have had, in order to afford the friends of removal an opportunity to unite on one candidate. Had they both continued to run, the county meeting nomination for Senator could not have succeeded for Wico against one. is too many.' We hope that the people of Dearborn will duly appreciate the motive? of thec gentlemen at a future time. Next Monday week is the day of the Election, and it will then be for the people of the county to fay whether ihey will any longer tiihirit to Lawrenceburgh dictation and misrule, or w he ther they will rule hereafter themftlves. If all the friends of the removal will nttrtid the election, and unite their voices in faying that the County Seat shnll be removed, then i is done; and there will be no niorediincnlty about it. Remember the following is the Connt v meet ing Ticket, and is pledged to support the remo val of the County Seat SENATOR, Daniel I I u miner. REPRESENTATIVES, .Tallies Walker, Thomas Howard, A. II.

Editors : As reports are abroad calculated to make false impressions on the minds of the country people in re1 itioii to the prevalence of cholera in tin's place, I avail myself of this opportunity to correct errors, by assuring our friends in the country that but one case of cholera has occurred here this seaton; and that in all probability was contracted abroad. There does not appear to be a strong predisposition to the disease at present, though I have no doubt that any case of neglected bowel complunt, cither in town or country, is liable to terminate in that way. People should therefore be a little more watchful than usual, and give proper attention to siuh ail'oclions in season. They should :-o be more cautious a-b-Mit the quality of their diet; and although too great a reduction in the quantity would prove a manifest injur-, Vet full meals should by no means be indulged in. Willi these precautionary steps, and the timely administration of remedies, there are good reasons for hoping that we shall not be severely vi'ited hy t);t dreadful scourge this Minnie t. J.
For Oic lining Sun Times. Messtis. Editors At the solicitation of some of my friends in this county, and without consulting my own private feelings, I have concluded to let my name remain before the public as a candidate for the State Senate, at the ensuins; August election. While I disclaim all pretensions to be voted for, or supported on local, sectional, or party principles, as 1 have no concealment, I give no promises, make no pledges to sustain or promote sectional or local advantages, i:i or.e part of the county, to the disadvantage of the oilier; my object and aim wi!I be, if chosen your representative in the Senate, to promote, advance and sustain the peace, harmony, and prosperity of the entire county of Dearborn, and the State in general; while I shall regard with the most scrupulous attention, the direction or instruction of a majority of the citizens or voters of the count, on all or any subject in width they may take a deep and lively interest, whether local, sectional, or general. These principles I promise and pledge myself strictly, morally and religiously to observe, as f.tr as my feeble abilities will enable me, whatever my own private views or feelings may be. In conclusion, should I be elected, whatever talents I possess, shall be cheerfully and industiiously exerted in the discharge of the duties of the cilice to which I aspire. Should my fellow citizens determine in favor of another, I will with pleasure acquiesce in their decision. With my best wishes for the permanent peace, harmony, and prosperity of the whole county, I remain most respectfully, the public's ob't. servant, W. ARMSTRONG.
Communicated. rO.MSDRl.H. Why is the Rev. Alfred J. Cotton like a cotton factory whose machinery is deranged and injured, and whose yarns are not in demand? D'ye give it tip? Recausc he makes'a great noise and puffing, and spins so many yarns that are not well joined; and because they are so little in demand that the ''sovereigns' have concluded not to use them. Cotton in its first state would be more preferable for "bals" for quilts, than when spun into yarn. W. the president. The National Intelligencer of the 10th instant, says: The President of the United States has, we understand, left this city on a visit to "the Hermitage" his residence in Tennessee, whence he does not propose to return before October. Crots in the West. From the information we can collect, there is reason to believe that the wheat, rye and oats crops, in Ohio and Indiana, will be short, especially on the thinner soils. On the rich bottom lands the failure will not be so considerable. For the last five or six weeks the season has been fine for corn, and there is no reason to apprehend that this staple grain may not be abundant. The destruction of the fruit, and the shortness of summer crops, it may well be supposed will keep up prices, more particularly, when it is ascertained that the consumption of the season will leave but little surplus to aid the deficiency of the growing crops. We begin to receive notices of the stale of the crops in different sections of the country. They are generally en co u ragi ng. Cin cin nali Gazette. Steam Boat Accident. The follow ing is copied from the Louisville Jour nal of the 10th instant: Wc understand (hat the steam boat Planter, w bile descending the Ohio riv er, on Saturday or Sunday last, was struck by the steamboat Arkansas, and immediately sunk in about six feet water. The Planter was heavily laden with a valuable cargo of bagging and bale rope. The accident occurred five miles above Brandenburg.

This is restoring the Deposits in the right way. On the 23d, the healthof thecity was considered as hav ing greatly improved. The Deposites. The schooner Augustine arrived at N.

This is but one item of the Hlertual manner in which the Deposites aie being replaced. Louisville, July 7, 1331.

AWFUL DEPRAVITY. A reward of $50 it should be $5,000 is offered in Ohio papers, for the apprehension of Hiiivm Adams, charged with having fired the dwelling-house of Walter L-ingley, of Bristol, Morgan county. The circumstances of this case as we learn by the Zanesvilie Gazette, are these. Adams was married to the daughter of Mr. Langlev, whom he used very badly, and on account of his uukindncss she left him and returned to her father. Unable to induce her to leave, her father's house to live with him again, he threatened to poison the family with arsenic, but he found that impracticable, and repeatedly expressed his determination, on the dav before the tire , ''to burn them up,'' w ith oilier fiendish threats expressive of his stilled purpose of destruction. By means of a ladder he deposited the fire near tiie bed in which his wife and children were sleeping, and must have burned for some, time undiscovered, for in less than a minute after the heat had aroused his wife, and she had got her children out of the bed, the burning mass above gave way, and covered the bed on which the moment before they had reposed. Several of the family escaped
with scarcely any clothing, and one of them through the fire. Mr Lxcley was well situated, and his comfortable residence abundantly supplied with the conveniences of life. All is now destroyed, his loss amounting to six or seven hundred dollars. But fortunately the perpetrator was disappointed in his main purpose. He did not succeed in becoming a murderer. GREAT FLOOD IX OHIO. Cmci.EviLi.E, Ohio. July 4. The Scioto riverswelled up by heavy and renewed rains, has arisen to a height only below that of the "great tlood of 1833," at which time it was higher than ever known before, by even the oldest settlers. This freshet is more remarkable on account of its happening in July; an incident never noticed since the settlement of Ohio. The Corn and Wheat on the Western bottoms of the river is entirely under water, comprising the best crop known in this section of the country for years. The latter was just fit for cutting and indeed some had been already reaped when (he freshet came and destroyed (be whole. But the most destruction was effected upon the Corn, with which almost the whole of those rich bottoms owned principally by large stock raising farmers was planted. Thousands of acres in the highest state of cultivation, were in ten hours covered completely over with water. Sheep, hogs and cattle, were swept away and drowned, principally of the former, to the amount of several hundreds. The bridges both at Columbus and at this place have been swept away by (he onward rush of the water. The Ohio Canal has been also dama ged to a great extent both above and below us; but the exact amount of mis chief is not known. The Columbus feeder is also broken. for three or four hundred yards, but the damage done on the main canal a little distance below where the Feeder joins it is of a far greater extent, which it will take much time to get it repair ed ere boats can run clear thro again. The run which this sudded overflow ing of the water has brought upon the tenants to whom the bottom land was mostly hired, is not to be described, and is rather a melancholy subject for reflection, upon the anniversary of our independence. Two Cherokee chiefs, who went to England, were asked their views res pecting religion. One of them replied that they had no priests in theircountry ; and thought it best, where there was little prospect of agreeing, that each one should paddle his canoe tsis own wav. A teaspoonfull of Godfrey's cordial lately caused the death of a child five weeks old, to whom it had been given to pacify if. An eminent phvsician states that mothers should be particularly cautious in giving these specific medicines to their children. MARRIED, On Sunday last, by the Rev. James Jones. Mr. Barney Chamrerlain of this place, to Miss Jui ia Ann Bauricklow, of Randolph township. On Ihursday last, by the same, Mr. William Collins, to Miss Marsh v Norle, both of this county. DIED. In this place, on Saturday last, of Cholera, Mr. Georcf. Parker, aged about 50 years. Mr. Parker was an in dustrious and useful citizen, and his death will be felt and regretted by the community in which he lived. I lis remains were followed to the grave on Sunday morning, by a large concourse
of citizens.
