Instead of having their clothes made in the most economical way, in their own houses, by their wives and daughters, Ihey run to the fashionable milliners and tailors at the same time, they are suffering for good garments. Their whole wardrobe often, setting aside the finery, would hardly pay for an auction. They would be ashamed to show it, to have it exposed to the light of day, to have their under garments seen.

T'.XK iUSTOilY O" T!!K COXSTITCTIOX. To every American reader, not only to evi ry statesman and politician , but to eery freeman capable of rightly esteeming the institutions under which we live, no forthcoming work can be of greater interest than the only authentic History cf the Constitution of the United States, from the lucid and faithful pen of .James Maiusov, the first (or one of the first) of its great founders urn architects. Of the value of such i work no one could be a better judge than Mr. Muuson himself, and he has in his Will, providing for its publica tion, borne the most emphatic testimony on the subject, whilst directing the nails of the publication to be applied to purposes wholly disinterested, humane, and literary. We are indebted to a friend for a copy of so much of the Will of the illustrious deceased (dated April 1 5, 1 036) as relates to this work; in which, as follows, wc are sure that our readers will find much to interest them: .Vft. fit!. "I give all my personal estate of every description, ornamental as well is useful, except as hereinafter other wise given, to my dear wife; and I also tve lo her all my manuscript patters, having entire confidence in her discreet ind proper use of thcni, but subject to the qualification in the succeeding clause. Considering the peculiarity and magnitude of the occasion which produced the Convention at Philadelphia in 17G7, the character s w ho composed it, the Constitution which result ed from their deliberations, its effects during a trial of so many years on the people living under it, and the interest it has inspired among the friends of free government, it is not an unreasonable inference that a careful and extend ed report of the proceedings and discussions of that body, w hich were with closed doors, by a member who was constant in his attendance, will be par ticularly gratifying to the People of the United S ates, and to all who take an interest in the progress of political science and the cause of true liberty. It is my desire that the report as made by me should be published under her authority and direction; and, as the publication may yield a considerable imount beyond the necessary expenses thereof, I give the nett proceeds there of to my wife, charged with the follow ing Legacies, to be paid out of that fund only,"' Sec. &c. SANTA ANNA. The following extract of a letter from an officer in the Tcxian Navy, to his relative in Charleston, gives a portraiture of Santa Anna, calculated to mingle unqualified contempt with the abhoience which the cruelties of that monster in human shape have universally inspired. 'Galveston Bay, Junk 20. I have seen Santa Anna, and the rest of the Mexican prisoners, the most important of whom is Almonli. Santa Anna is a very ordinary looking man, and the greatest coward the world ever produced. As a proof of this, 1 will give ou an instance that came under my own observation. lie and his officers were sent on hoard of our vessel at Velasco, for safe keeping. He had not been with us over a few days, when the people became dissatit-ftcd and sent for dim. As soon as he was informed of this, he judged our people by his own and thought they were going to butcher him. The wrech exclaimed inSpan-ir-h Mo:c, mercy! Oh God! if they wish to kill me, lei them tome and shoot me here don't let thttn take me oa shore."' We could not persuade him that his hie was safe. He rushed below; and, hke a Turk, took opium to drown his arrows. As soon as the effects of the drug were over, we hurried over the side of the vessel, into the long-boat; ;nid as he went the tears trickled down his pusillanimous cheeks, and "He: omviml lips ilul from Uwir color ily, Aii.l lhai sanlu ,.je ,VUISC b(,uj llo,, awc alj An-xicn, I'i'l Idu its lustre." IBs friend Almonti, is a dark, thick s,'t "l;m, speaks English perfectly well, has traveled through the United States is very talented, affable, and extremely winning in his murmurs I consider him
a greater villain than Santa Anna, because, like a serpent, he only embraces to sting, whereas you can read deceit and indifference in Santa Anna's countenance, and you know what to expect.

While the trial was proceeding, a rush was made by a large, number of blacks who had assembled, the prisoners rescued and borne to the. door in defiance of all opposition, and thence transferred to a carriage, in waiting at a convenient point and driven rapidly out of town. They have not since been heard from. The Judge, deputy-sher iff, and other officers, were somewhat injured in the scullle which preceded their liberation . The audacity of this transaction has excited a very general indignation among the Bostonians. An Abolition meeting, which was to have been held the following evening at Julien Hall, was forbidden by (he proprietor, under apprehension ol a riot. We trust Judge Lynch will be compelled to show cause for each exercise of jurisliction, w hether his officers be white or black. The Cherokee Indians residing within the chartered limits of North Caroli na, and in Union county, Georgia, have, through their delegates formally assem bled, published a ihchiratiua of prtire 1 hev state that tticir condition is entirely dissimilar to that of the hostile Creeks: that they have made considerable advancement in the arts of civil ized life; that dependence on the chase for a precarious subsistence is no more known among them; that their inter ests and predilections and institution are all on the side cf peace; that (hey have no military system, nor military supplies; and that they have no con nexion with the belligerent tribes. By war, they say, they have nothing to gain, and every thing to lose. German Emigrants. We obtain the following facts from a late Paris pa per: For several years past a compa ny has been employed in the kingdoms of Wurtcmhuig, Bavaria and Baden, in organizing the emigration of Colonist for the U. S. of America. This com panv has lately addressed propositions to Marshal Clausel it has asked his protection and offers to direct this cm ignition to Algiers and the French pos sessions in the North of Africa. This emigration for the last fifteen years ha been very considerable. It has been in the following proportions I G22 to 21 34,500 colonists; from 1825 to 28, 153. 500 do; from 182? to 32, 25)0.000 do from 1833 to 34, 149,000 do; from 1835, 80,000, and in 183G, 00,000 do iNoneof these colonists arc sent unti they can prove themselves possessed of sufftcicnt funds to establish themselves in the colonies, Capt. Ford of the United States Ar my is now at his residence in this vicin ity. We are told he has returned to this State, for the purpose of receiving the services of from 70 to 100 active and enterprising young men, who wish to explore the western wilos in the set vice of their country. The Company proposed tone raised by Capt. v ord i destined to act as d racoons on the western frontiers, and will be furnished with horses, clothing, accoutrements, and rations. Those who wish to engage in the service, can do so by mak ing application, either at Charleslown or Indianapolis, at both of which pla ccs we understand a rendezvous wil be opened for that purpose. 67 a rlc stnicn Iadianian.

Here we are hounded by l'cnn.-ylvania tn ct on the South, High street on the West, and Fifth street on the Aorth, ind beyond these there are no building Lots for sale. The owners of the land are wealthy, and they do not st em disposed to sell. We :re satisfied that this is a great drawback on the increase of our population and trade, and will not increase as it would and should, until the building lots are CNlended. Lots beyond the streets named would command a good price now. Why then are they not brought iuto market? Will the owners tell us? K K N ' V I ( 1 K V V O I , I J X T I I : ! t S . The 1'resideiitof the United States has notified llic Governor of Kentucky, in a letter dated at the Hermitage, oa the 17th inst.that the call of Gen. Gaines for one thousand volunteers, from that State, has not mvt his approbation, and he requests the Governor, if tho men called for had been brought into the field, to forthwith cause them to be mustered and discharged, and await for further orders from the General Government. The Volunteers, who were ready to march, have, of course, been discharged. 15ut it sceim from what we read in the Louisville Advertiser, that "a number of the volunteers determined! not to ho baulked in their patriotic endeavors,'' liao "resolved to proceed to the frontier lines forthwith, and be governed by such circumstances a? may there present thcmselvef." Their object is to march into Texas, and enrol themselves in the cause of that struggling Republic. A call has been made upon the citizens Of Louisville and tile surrounding country, for contributions to enable them to equip, Ac. for enterprise . thi: im;kl!c .moxf.y. A resolution was passed by the Senatr, at the recent session of Congress, making it tho the duty of the Secretary of the treasury, to publish on the first ofeach 'month, the "amount of money in the Treasury subject to draft, and also the amount standing to the credit of disbursing oilicers and in pursuance of said resolution, Mr. WoomiuiiY publishes that on the first instant there was in the Treasury tho sum of forty millions two hundred and thirty thousand one hundred and seventy-fix dollars and twenty-one cents! ANTI-A ItOMTIOXISM. The Logansport (Indiana) Telegraph of tho bth instant, contains some very severe editorial remarks in regard to the recent formation of an Anti-Slavery So! iety in that place. After slating thai the movements of the Abolitionists tend to increase the evils of Slavery, and lo arouse the horrors of insurrection and bloodshed, the Fuilors ask, u ill Indiana checrish wilhin her borders cmmis.mcs whose misguided zo.il will aid in Iproducing such results? l-t public opinion la-h the northern blood-hounds back into their kennels.'" Wo conceive this lo be very strong language, and language which we think, should lint be made use of, eitheir agniust Abolitionists or Ant i-Abolilionist. It is sow ing the seeds of a riot. If a party he wrong, will hard words convince them of il? Can you turn (hem from the "error of their ways" by calling thein blood-hounds and insurseclionists ! Wo think not ; and now is time for tho philosopher, the statesman, tha patriot, and last, though not least, the F.ditor, to keep cool, and make use of mild, and moderate language, and rrason with tho abolitionists upon the course they have taken. This is the only way in our opinion, ij they are at the bottom of all the mischief, to couviucc them of it.
