SATUKPAV JAM'AItY 17, 1S33. Q--Our Eastern papers due us last Moiuiay lid not arrive, consequently we are unable to give any Congressional proceedings. IXDIANA LEGISLATURE. We have received from Thomas Howabp, F.si. ' a Table exhibiting the names, occupation, residence, nativity, aire, and present and former politics'' of the members of the House of Representatives of this Slate, from which we learn that there are in that body, 41 farmers 18 lawyers, 5 merchant', 4 physicians, 3 tanner?, 1 chair maker, 1 cabinet maker, 1 rrinttr, I bricklayer, 1 carpenter, and I without any occupation total 76. V( this number there Avere born in Indiana 1, Kentucky 16, Virginia 13, North Carolina 13, Pennsylvania 10, Ohio 7, New York 5, Maryland 3, Connecticut 3, New Jersey 2, Delaware 2, Massachusetts!, South Carolina 1, Tennessee 1, District of Columbia l,amUreland 1. The ace cfthe old

est is 67. and of the vounrvt 2ii. It would be

almost useless to attempt to ive a statement

of iheir politics, as they are "mixed up in all

sorts of ways'' there being some Anti-Van

Burcn, some Van Dr.rcn Johnon, some M'Lean, Clay, Webster, Benton, Jo'..nson, Harrison; some non-committed, some on the fence, and others "just as it uit.," i-c. Sec.

(tf proposition is now before our lecislature to borrow two hundred thousand dollars, on the faith of the State, to he given to the several counties, for the purpose of improving their roads. Thi is a separate scheme from that splendid one which proposes to borrow one million four hundred thousand dollars to commence some half a (Uven Kail Roads in different sections of the State ; and we thii.k vre can safely presume that it has been get up for the purpose of buying ever the votes of these members who arc opposf-d to the rail road loan. We hope that our Representatives may oppose both these loans, tVr wc would prefer taking our portion of the three per cent, fund on the present plan, bud as it i', rather than the State should be involved in a dtbt which it would require an agoto pay and wc believe their constituents would t;iu:.k them for so doing. W e are much in Civ or of the doctrines laid down by our correspondent " Mc Ada.m,'' in relation to thec Rail Roads, and we should like for ti.e friends of the measure to answer us one question. It is thi How are the pjople to raise money to pay off the taxes which will be levied to discharge the interest on these sums? This is an important inquiry for the people, more especially as a gn at many already find their taxes too high. An individual cannot now set a time-piece on his mantle, or carry a watch, to tell him the time of day, without paying tax for that privilege and it the Legislature shall authorize the contemplated loans, we shall notb: disappointed to see people paying tax for the privilege of wearing hats, boots, shoes, Sic. On this subject wc are nearly ripe for Nullification it is so unjust and so illiberal that it oujht to meet with the hearty disapprobation of every friend to the State.

Both brandies of the Legislature, since the short recess for (he hollidnys, have commenced in good earnest the business of the session. The first day of the year was entirely devoted to legislation, and no delay will be made, to bring (he session to as speedy a close as possible. From (he amount of business to be acted upon, however, we should not be surprised (o witness a long session. The committee of thirteen, appointed on the subject of a loan of 1,500.000, had a met ting on Saturday last and appointed a sub-committee to draft a bill, and make a report. No delay will be made in bringing (his important subject before the legislature, in a tangible form. Lidianapolis Democrat, Jan. 9. farmers' and mechanics' bank. The. charter of this Bank was given under (he Territorial government, and

by its limitation expired the hi st of (his month. This Bank was recognized by the constitution as having a right to continuance, though no other, save a State Bank, is allowed the existence of this is named mid recognized without

regard (o duration. Under this view a petition has been sent on to Indianapolis, asking (lie Legislature to continue ifs being for a term of years. There seems (o he much anxiety, both in town and country in favor of this measure. Madison Rrpub. Distilleries. A Mr. Griener informs (he public. i:i the Danville Olive Branch, that he has put up in the United Slates "eleven hundred and sixtythree distilleries."' This is a striking verification of the passage of Scripture winch sas, 'One sinner destroyed) much good."'

THE NATIONAL DEIIT. The Washington Globe of the 30th ultimo, contains the proceeding of a meeting of a number of the members of Congress, holdcn at the Capitol on the preceding day, fur the purpose of making i rangements to celebrate the final extinguishment of the National De bt, the last payment of which was made on th. 2Gth of December, 1834. Col. Richard M. Johnson presided. A committee of arrangements was appointed, with instructions to invite the President and Vice President of the United States ami Heads of Departments to attend. The !Uh of January was the day appointed for the celebration.

PAYMENT OF PENSIONERS. The Lawrenceburgh Palladium of last Saturday, contains a correspondence between the Hon. Amos Lane and the Secretary of War, in relation to the payment of Revolutionary Pensioners at the branches of the State Bank of Indiana. Mr Lane, in his letter to the Secretary, stated that an arrangement of this kind 44 would enable each individual to receive payment of Ins Pension near the place of his residence, and in most cases, in pi rson. This would be a saving to the soldier, less liable to the numerous frauds practised by agents, on both soldier and Government; and dispense with the general agency altogether." To Mr. Lane's letter, the Secretary of War replied, "that if the State Bank of Indiana

and its Branches should be considered Banks of

deposit by the Secretary of the Treasury, there would bo no objection on the part of that Department, respecting the proposals made in relation to the payment of pensioners," and m1i15 that he understands the Secritary of the Treasury is in communication with the Bank on the subject. We have not ihe least doubt that an arrangement of this nature would he quite acceptable to the ciiMuiier in this Slate. fcTThe Kentucky Gazette, published at Lexington, Kjr. ;nH probably the second olilest paper wet of the Alh ihany mountains, entered on its fiftieth tar the 10th instant. It gives thi; names ( el. n individuals who have been subscribers f,.r forty -nine years, and were never in ciebt for their paper n single moment! Such instances are rare. fjT-Tbe Kentucky lecilature, on the 9th instant, elected John J. Crittenden, a Senator in Congress for six years from the 4th of March next, to succeed Georre M. Bibb. On the first ballot, the vote stood, for John J. Cnttcndeu James Guthrie 40. f7-The public debt of the State of Penn"3lvania.it twenty -three million dol'.nrs.

Let us then' bestir ourselves, look to our own interests, and not slumber at our firesides, while our representatives are saddling a debt of millions upon us and our children, to benefit a few favored individuals. Every man should, on so important a crisis, speak his sentiments freely. Our public servants should know (Imi the favor (hey extend (o so wild, extravagant and unjust a policy, will heap upon thorn an unenviable responsibility they should be told that we will firs I provide for our own wants bv making good roads lo our maiket places, and if (hen we have any thing to spare to generosity and charity, we will cheerfully bestow it. McADAM.

Coiiuit imieation. For the Times. INTER N All 31 PIJOVE ill ENT. Mr. Editor A just regard (o first wants in any plan for (lie expenditure of public money on objects of internal improvement, is as proper as a reference to first principles is necessary (o establish any theory capable of mathematical demonstration. To illust rate this position, it w ill not he too much to assume that the first wants of every community as to public roads, embrace such as will facilitate the conveyance of the. produce of (heir farms to the common market places for such community, and that these wants every neighborhood ought to provide for before they consent to be taxed to construct splendid State improvements; and until these wants are met by the labor and enterprise of the several portions of a State, it is not reasonable to suppose that such State is in a good condition (o embark in projects of a more extended character; and besides, it is in accordance with reason, justice, and a maxim founded upon divine authority, to provide for the wants of our own household first; or if you please, is right to be just before one is generous. 1$ it just then that the majority shall be (axed for (he benefit of the minority? You answer no. How then is (he splendid scheme for State improvements recently got up in the Loghl iture, lo be reconciled with the principles of justice? Not one of (he objects embraced in the whole scheme can or will in all likelihood, be completed within les (ban ten years, and whether at all must depend upon such additional resources as numbers, the proper measure by which to demonstrate (he success of all enterprises and undertakings nfTord no good grounds (o anticipate. In proof of what is said about the injustice of this scheme, let two of (lie objects designated in it be Liken as an example, to wit: the rail-way from Indianapolis lo Madison, and from the same place to Lawrenceburgli. The distance between those works will, at any point near the Ohio River, be at least fifty mile, and mot of the intermediate territory is thickly settled how will a large majority of this population be benefitted by either or both these roads, if (hey have nol good turnpike roads to intersect them? But it is argued by some that these important roads should be made first, and Ihe persons interested will make the important intersecting roads themselves. There is about as much reason, propriety and justice in this argument as (o require a child to run before it can walk, or tocx

pect a man to provide the luxuries of

life for others before lie secures the ar

ticles of immediate jvant for himself.

For the Times. Mr. Glenn Will you permit me to occupy about a square, more or less, of your paper, while I make a few friendly suggestions to some members of our Lyceum? If so, I wish merely lo say thai I have heard some Lectures which were not original, but were copied, and that too without (he Lecturer giving the name of the author. I believe that plagiarism is a crime of a very mean order, and a person guilty of it ought to be exposed. I do not object to a lecturer adopting the theory of another, and quotingor condensing the language of another to support his argument, for this is often necessary but I do protest against copying a whole lecture out of a history, a pamphlet, an almanac, &c. and palming it off as original. I am afraid this will injure our Lyceum, for people will not go (here lo hear things read which they have read themselves before. What is jour opinion of this, Mr. Editor? or would you rather hear

front mc again on the subject? CLIO. Yes: "go a-head "EL "Altcruna alterius anxilio rgrt.n Tune Old Grimes.
