I see you've tm :, er h-ilts awl sf.ips in it, out th;. don't Jnend the reading of it with us out hole, whose motto is just go aa.ad l).,vv." Therefore, I've had a l:,t,e tno.,, ,,m,, to arrange tmtters an.'t nll'airs. and have got neighbor K. lo give it an ovvi haul ing, ion nx ovit advertisf numts in town fashion wVn the people want von nnd why not flx mine too? I suppose there's a d ollar's ditUrence. I see now that eVrV Mm who wAnU in writ letter W"t0 lookou'., else hisown wriwv'ii expose his wisdom. Some ol your correspondents in your last paper use words that we can't begin to know. and in reading them we're like a dog on a cold 'coon trail that smells him on ly now and thru. I am noi in the habit of running jam up tc big :vW., hut I, like my neighbors, lay it down in plain Hooster stle. You know, M ijor, I was in at the Lyceum 2 evenings ago. It was royal slaying, so I got a pared of gals in my flay, and oil we stalls in fine glee I assure you. We took a seat near the door. Wetountiy people never gv to meetings of any kind to make inter Juption, but I find that some of your town's people do, far they were "tier- . ii - i. i i . i . i i 11. my wmic i stated stamiivn t.uc nom earning in an I going mt. .My old father fed to tell me it was wry wrong, hut a they s ly some of them know every thing, and a little more too, it niwt bt '.. But worst of all w as them thar tatnal hoys that sol by me. The little varments k-pt such ai;oise that I coal. I only now and th-u sirike i: with the. trail of the lectures. They nnJe me 50 mad that I could have' rammed a squire ef bossier bait (ginger cake.) dawn each o::e of their throats, if it had'nt bee;: for disturbing the rot iety. S f cent !u Jed ld go, so 1 went a-head. List S ilurday evening I w as there agiin, but the same play was played oer again. I partly heard two" short lectures, and the president said they were tcry .i, and you know, m jor, he knozrs. There was a great deal said about lending money, &c. by the several members, and some actually bloieed so much that lhey;will ;bcfore they renew the contest,! have to have a new pair of blowers. Then after this was over the president viannjlnlured quite a long yarn from the rear material. lie appears to understand spmning. They asl appear lo be very brotherly and kind to each other. They now and then run a foul of e ach other, and the canon roar nue "wars were 'mime, hut soon it's hushed and good feeling return. lis an honor both to them and tho place. I had some business at the .Burgh last week, and ell" I starts; and thinks I to myself I'll keep what the surveyor's call field r.otcs. So 1 comes in to town, nnd aftcr.transactinga little business at old father Bowman's", 1 started. (I don't Mievc all lhat Mr. Springwaler savs.) 1 went a head till I got to Laughery ferry, nnd there I got as much out with them as I did with the boys. 1 waited a long tieiw and at lat I got over. I hink, major, you ought to let them Barghers at least mend this road a:;d build a bridge, if you won't let them have a turnpike. You know they are monstrous fond of helping us to .tour crapes. You know the Palladium talks a great deal about a Chinese or pailition wall, and I think that this creek ought lo be the foundation ground, for it's the next tiling to halt. I thick if you'd agree with the Palladium and have one, it would be. a royal thine, f r it would prevent the exclusion of the belligerent tribes and savage horde of Tartars ef the North. You know row and fun them saucy Lawyers get nrvU you and they set the very eats to -qn?:ug it would prevent thi. Then too if! Fir-. - wa one. whim the, p slraved oTt the neighborhood of liid'ianapoli. t!:oy would mi o --? to W 1 hat jr runty they car.V from or t hat !. tlio) be I. vrsgod to. And ll.o ordy ti.ini V t ..i!d ever maV j vt r is that eta r:-J haul", fir I titvlthe people I. iki ....i .1 'enm.r lv .V I. old of Ihe o-i. r p.ij or, a'iough it's 5 "r cent. I . low par to t! r P.av'. Vou said woo!,-. So on I went Aurora, and .' know when I'm in U n.o I do as .'. m.(V ! sol look a Mitihoi.i of old Yankee I tint, and before I got avros I! win. ii had the prospect of (;.'

place, that y.i,tng,(or it had got high m my heo-a aud i looked on others round ue as sm(,u So ou -packs to the Hmgh, and by the time I got there 'f.e stvdf which I'd taken at Aurora bega.i, ;is friend Culley says, like the

place itself, to "opine'' a fall. I put up at old father Pilch's. In the meantime I took a look round and done my business. I saw lots of men in the ''doggo - lies," as they call em in Rising S'.in: some swearinir, some quarreling, some diinkin?, and some, like some v( our IciJo-.vs, with their eies lmngel up (for mkkcy's s;;ke they ouglit to be spared for future r:oon!) I tho't you'd several times underrated the Burghers, but M ijor I tell vou wht vou hav'nt half done it. I siiant say any thing about its local situation, for I'm gwine there agin in M ay. Yes, I must go, hail or sloim, and I'll git on lhat thar new steam boat that's building in town, and Til ride, sock up the streets to Hunt's hotel, and then I guess I can tell ou a thing or two. You know there's one Jackson and one Clay hotel, so I thinks 111 try 'em both and then I can tell which treats me best; so you'll think perhaps I'm neither one nor the other longer than its to my own interest. Sol started hum and got thar about 3 o'clock: I wanted to go back by Wilmington to tell them a thing or two, about having another invention before next August, but could'ul. So I tound tin cyphering up my money that I'd spent jul oO cents for ferliage, 25 cents for drams, and 50 cents torsundiies. So y ou. set; major, gwine up there is'nt the thing its clacked up to he. I don't intend to go any more there unless that Spinner or Weaver, (I don't know v hit h.) comes after n.e. and ih n if I go lm determined to save 25 ce its, for I'll join that great big tempera net; society which Mr. Springwater says will meet on the last Tuesday in tiiis month, when and where the whole woi Id's going lo join. M;. jor,l wo;. dor if we can'l have another Wila.ington invention ? The time's going a-ho ad. Vou know that cur towns-hip election vuiloi.ly be a priming to the August one, for we may look out out for breakers when all the i)rs. of .Metaphysics arc out. F.en now one's out that's got a , yet he laments and wishes foi one that he can wield with more slight. You know the Palladium -ays you are not tnreatened by the "respeetahlc and sober thinking citizens'' oi'lhe Burgh of being h'lm-strung. By this, major, Iriend Culley makes a cer tain prominent Lawieneeburgher show his native colors very much, and in course he is not one of the "respectable and sober thinking citizens. I riend Culley had better mind, else he'll get a blizzard from one of his own tribe. But this is only a bite, for if ever you jump over lhat great wall and get in hearing of Ihe Burgh, ou're a gone chicken. So y ou stick lo your post and give us plenty i.f them thar bob tnl tiektls again, and we'll drive litem again so far lhat they'll never grow out any more. So, Major, if you want to go there just put il off until I go up and !'!! see you right. A Hoosmi ce Au.or.n's cheek. A NEW INVENTION M.VnP. wv A. KTZl.Klt. It is a simple eonliivance for performing all that may be comprehended in the term of improvements ef ihe propelled by inanimate powers, so that one cr two persons may elllct as much as many thousands of laborers are able to do now, with a clear saving of so much wages and food of beasts to be employed now in such works. It is a locomotive machine lobe propelled I. by a steam engine, oi the, same of 50 to 100 horse power or upwards, as may he desirable; 2. or with greater advantage by astationary steam engine operating at a distance," within three miles, on the locomotive; 3. or, j with still jiro-au-r advantage by a stationarv wind mi I, or a combination of several wind mills, in the same way as mentioned at No. 2; 4. or, by a waterfill in the same way; 5. or, or with the greatest advantage, in all rases whatever, by a combination of wind and water power. Tne ohje-rts attainable are: 1. to '.'.ko trees of any sizu with their roots out of the ground; 2. to cut I hem inlo convenient pj res for removal, (a tiee of f.'t-t diameter being cut thiough in at ii t.t 12 seconds;) 3. to do ;.ny

(or another crop in all 6 to PJ,000 aeres, leaving 300 days yet for other purposes through the year; 9. to reap or mow any kind of grass, grain or stalks, at the rate of 500 to 1000 acres per day; 10. lo gather and remove the c.rons: I I. to make dilrhpu with rl.m around holds, instead of fences; 12. to make navigable canals; 13. to improve naxigable waters; 14. to make large holes for reservoirs of water works and other important purposes; 15. to make mines and take their contents out of them; 16. lo make roads; 17. to cut whole pieces of earlh, of any desirable size, oul of the ground for vaiious use ful purposes; 18. to make any kind of elevations of ground; 19. to cut out of ihe ground rectangular pieces of rocks, with smooth surfaces, I to 5 feet thick, and of any desirable length, and if de sired, finishing them with joints so adapted as to fit close into those of other stones, and to make mason work with out cement, as if of one entire piece; 20. to lay pavements almost indestruc tible; 21. lo erect buildings and mason work of any kind, equal or supciior to the most famous buildings of ancient Iv gypt and other ancient countries; 22. lo transport heavy loads (ship's loads) at once over land; 23. to cover poor soil with a richer one from some neigh boring place where it be dispensable; 24. lo provide any part within a few miles from the stationary establishment with water; 25. to provide any factory, mill or other establishment wanting me chanical power, with any dcred quan tity of such at all limes. The locomotive machine effects all the first 23 purposes; is not much more i i.i com'Uicatttt man a common wagon; will not exceed the expense of silOOO besides the contrivance for furnishing ihe power, which, according to the choice of power and locality, may require 2000 to N 1 0.000. If the most advantageous mode he used, all the various operations w itl never require more than one person at a lime, who may do Ihe work of 1000 to G000 laborers; in many cases of 1000 lo G000 laborer? and in all cases whatever the work of 100 to 200 horses, and 50 to 100 atten dants at least. The whole invention is founded upon well known experience, and not depending on experiments lo In: made yet; and so simple that a child of eight years may easily understand it. Tho invooior w ill, on his passage to Liouisville, stop at Kising Sun and exhibit the model of the whole system and explain il, if at least 30 persons subscribe for him each one dollar, which shall be given back to those persons to whom he cannot give satisfactory proof oi nis assertions.

Ccri FY Sc Cole: Gentlemen 1 notice in your paper of the lh instant, a note to vou over the signature of "Manchester." It might be inferred by many, that as he signs his naun .Manchester, he would wish to be understood as speaking the voice of that township; antt as it regards myself, were I satisfied he were cioi'ied with authority to speak Ihe sentiments pf lhat township, I would have naught to say further. Hut how is the fact lo be known I say in no way, unless we lake his word for granted. But il is far from me ta believe, or even suppose, that he speaks any more or less than his own sordid, seltish doctrines: for. sirs, I live myself near the borders of .Manchester township, and am intimately acquainted with a large portion of its respectable inhabitants, and have frequently conversed with a number of them on the subject of the relocation of the county ser.f, and I do aver upon my honor, that I never have found the first individual who is not in favor of a relocation of the counly seat, provided il shall bo moved from LHwreneehurgh west of Tam er's Creek. Gentlemen, this Mr. Manchester tells you that the news of the passage of the bill for relocation of the county seat has just came to hand, and the provisions eif the bill and designs of its projectors are fairly head, have been duped; that they supported our delegates, w ith an express understanding with Ihe friends of removal below, that if the county seat was to be moved at all, it should go to the center. Gentlemen, I am one who ha taken some interest in this business and have heard the subject discussed frequently, and in various fo, ,ns, ht must say that I never heard it said I or

suggested by any man of common sense,

that wished it removed at all, that it should go to the center; because the center of the county if it is where it is represented to be, is a mass of hills and timber a beautiful site, indeed, for a county seat of so respectable a county as that of ours. And further, it is known to every man that a town never could be built at that spot, that would invite the attention of any re spectable person, that otherwise might wish to settle among us. Again, he tells you, that it is not the intention of the w ire workers in this drama to relo cate it at the center. I think not; neither do 1 thiuk that Mr. Manchester wants it at the center; for I am of opin ion that he has been a wire worker in this matter himself, but perhaps, not being quite so expert in the business as some others, his designs have been frustrated. But, gentlemen, to come to the point: This Mr. Manchester does not want the seat of justice moved from Law re nee burgh, unless it comes to his or his neighbors farm; and now that hi: sees he has been foiled in his expectations, he wants lo rest the blame on a certain class of men which he thinks fit to call wire workers; and says, he docs not wish the seat moved, unless to tho center. I would ask, gentlemen, is not this fellow a wire worker? all will answer, yes, he is but has not fairly got trie trade, notwithstanding he tells you he speaks the voice of Manchester township. He tells you that thai clause in the bill for relocation, lhat read?, "it shall be located at or as near the center, as a proper site may be found, expresses more when connected with circumstances than is precrptible at first glance." Sage discovery, indeed. I should like to know from Manchester what it expresses more than it reads? and what it reads, every man that knows A can understand. Would Mr. Manchester cite the people to a law of the kind ever enacted by any body of legislators that confined commissioners" lo the center of the county? Sapposo, for example, the center ef this county was barren hills; and further, suppose ft was a swamp, and a law for rt loc ilion passed confining commissoucrs to that spot, what would he Ihe result? The result is obvious, that a relocalon could not be effected; because the situation of the ground at the center would not ad mil of it, and the peoplo, in that case. must continue still to be aggrieved. But thank Heaven, M-ssrs Editors, the people generally and our representatives, are not of that selfish breed of dogs, that I conceive Mr. Man chester to he. L lie magnanimity ofour v.civ:B,ufs uiciaieu a different course, and a law was enacted giving latitude to the commissioners, which I think wa the proper course, and so will every honest man. But again, sirs, this whole township tells you that if, by further disclosures, his opinion shall he confirmed, you may rest assured he will not hi;l lo raise the curtain and nlare (he acts of certain zealots, whohavo io,,ri. ed to t!m most despicable means to car ry their points, before ihe people in their true light. Good. Messrs. Prif. crs, this is just what I want. I wish him to laiso his curtain and come no with his show, and let the whole people see the nianu;uvreing that has been carried on since this unpleasant matter has been agitated; and then, sirs, I am satisfied this Mr. Manchester will be found in the phalanx of wire workers, to the full extent of his abilities. I am aston ished to hear a man say, who presumes lo speak tha sentiments of so respect able a township as Mancherter, that credulity has been practiced on himself ami his neighbors. I woulJ like to know in what way they have been imposed upon. Is it because they have not had a guaranty of the court house at each man's door, or at the center? The remarks of the gentleman, in thai matter, are as fabulous as remarks frequently made by the enemies of removal in this county: that our delegates have acted from sordid, selfish principles. This 1 undertake lo deny, on the ground that they acted no further in the matter, concerning the relocation, th an they were instructed by their constituents. When I say constituents. I mean an overwhelming majority of the yeomanry of this county; and in acting in accordance with their wishes, (hev act ed as honorable men should do further than Ibis they have not rone. And I f.;r one,genllemen, am w illing lo say, with out the fear of successful eoolradcition. that they, in that course, will be sus tained by a large majority of ihe freemen oi hvirborn county, any thing ia Ihe views of this Mr. Manchester lo the routary, notwithstanding. In these re marks, gentlemen, I shall take the re sponsibility on myself, and if in error, I shall not implicate my neighbors. Most respectfully, A Citizen or I, vi tair.uv. Peb. 1 1th. in.J-i.

COL. ru.YNcis VICO. We perceive that a likeness of this venerable individual had been placed upon the notes of the Slate Bank of Indiana. This mark of respect was merited. Col. Vigo, is by birth a Piedmontese. He emigrated to America, about seventy years ago, and settled as a tinder near Vincennes, in this stale His age is bordering on ninety years. His courtesy and hospitality to strangers, and lo his neighbors have long been known; and he has been an efficient friend of the country, when it most needed friend; aiding its cause alike by his personal services and his purse. In 1780, w hen an expedition was fit

ted out by Virginia, and placed under the command of the gallant George Rogers Clark, for the purpose of protecting the frontiers, as far as possible, from the inroads of the Indians, Col. V. espoused the cause of the United Stales, and in the capacity of a guide, aided General Clark in leading his forces, through the sw amps and drowned lands of the Wabash, to Vincennes, which was at that time occupied as a military post by the British. The post was taken by stratagem; and its capture led to important and beneficial results. Col. Vigo still resides on his farm near Vinccunes. in Knox county. Age and adversity have not weakened his desire to he useful to his country scd to his fellow citizens, although they have, to a great extent, diminished his means . f,oan?j)ft Tchgmph. CATHOLICISM versm UF.PCIiUCAXISM. The Catholic Telegraph, published at Cincinnati, (Ohio.) speaking of the Convent trials, says, 'This one fact is condemnation of American Institutions, confirmed lately by numerous other proofs' Let these who feel an interest in preserving the institutions so dear to us, ponder this well.

Disgraceful Yesterday morning a motley crowd of six or vighl hundred men and boys, chiefly foreigners, assembled at one of lhc piers on the North lay. r. At 10 o'clock they were taken oil by the steamboat Hercules, and conveyed lo Ph'zibelhtown Point, N. J. where, in an open field, they formed a ring, and Ihe champions, James Kced and Andrew McCl.mc, had a beastly Ihjhr, which extended 17 rounds, and occupied an hour and three quarters. A Sheriff came upon the ground and proclaimed the law, hut was only regarded with hisses. At 5 o'clock tlu Boat returned with her miserable cargo at Whitehall. Neither of the combatants were able to stand, and hnlh were supported on rhorc, and carried oirio their lodgings. They fought for OIM dollars. e need not sav anv thing to stimulate our authoiifies, and those of New Jersey, to lake measures to bring the actors in this outrage to punishment, and to prevent the recurrence of similar scenes in future. We should hope, loo, that the owners of steamboats, now that the game is understood, would not suffer them to bo used for a purpose so much against the peace, (he interests, and honor ofour city. Horrid! A few day s since the jail of the county of Hancock, at Greenfield, was destroyed by fire, and with it an unfortunate man ly the name of John Hays. He had been for some weeks somewhat deranged, had committed some acts of violence, was in bonds to keep Ha peace, and for fear of the violation of his bond his securities had him committed, where he set lire to ihe jail. He had previously fucd the jail, but was rescued befote he received is jury. In this last rase his cries were heard, about oVIock at night, and person- repaired to his relief, nut unlucivily, while in lhe act of turning the key, the wards broke off in (he. lot k, and before the doors could be forced, the lire had gained such a power, as (o prevent any succor being afforded him. 1 lis body was tolally consumed, not leaving a bone lo lie frm that wa four inches in length.
