RISING SUN: SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1836. KrAfter this week, we hope to be able to give a greater quantity of reading matter, than our paper has contained for some time past. A press of job work has compelled us to occupy more room with advertisements, than we have been in the habit of doing.
PRESIDENTIAL. ELECTION. It may be well enough to state, that the officers of the election, in Randolph township, have placed this construction upon the Constitution of Indiana: That no person has a right to vote for President, or other officer, out of the county in which he resides. We deem it expedient to make this public, inasmuch as citizens of other counties have heretofore been permitted to vote at the Randolph polls.
MORE MAMMOTHS. We have in our office, four meshanic potatoes, from the farmof Mr. Gerard, of Randolph township, which weigh 10 pounds and 6 ounces. The largest weighs 3 pounds and 3 ounces. The fifth part of ar. acre produced seventyfive bushels of these potatoes. We have also a fill pippin apple from Dr. Fisher's farm, on Laughery, which weighs 2G ounces, and measures 15 1-2 inches in circumference. But what goes a head of any thing we have heard of in the vegetable line, is the following from the Richmond Palladium: "Mr. John Beard, of Jackson township, Wayne county, raised this season a pumpkin which weighed one hundred and sixty pounds." We knock under in the pumpkin line, but we won't give up the potatoes and apples.

tainly takes a correct view of the sub
ject of exchanges, and of Eastern and Scolt and Gaines, and of the delay in
Western periodicals. We have said
considerable on the same subject our-
self, and have endeavored to impress upon Western editors the injustice they were doing, not only to themselves, but to Western Literature, by puffing and
prosecuting the campaign asainst the
Creek Indians, in Alabama. The court
is to meet at Frederick, in Maryland.

We had intended to take, some exceptions to his notice ourself, but our correspondent 'Manchester,'' has done so for us. He handles the Clerk without gloves. We received another communication on the same subject, on Thursday, but too late for this week's paper. It will be considered next week. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC, And especially to the people of the county of Dearborn. Notice is hereby given, that the Clerk's office of the county of Dearborn, in the State of Indiana, is now kept, and will remain for a time, at the same place, in the same house, in the town of Lawrcncburgb, Dearborn county, where it has been kept and located since the incendiary burning of the former office in the Court House; believing conscientiously, that to keep the office and records here for the pres
ent, better, subserves public interest,
public will, and the convenience and wishes of a large majority of the people
of the county of Dearborn, besides en
suring the greater safety of the records. When a change is deemed necessary by
a majority of the people at large, and
when such change is required by the
constitutional laws of our state, that
change will immediately take place.

ome slight portion of common sense tells me, Wilmington is not at present I that place gratitude tells me, that the people, the "sinew, bone and marrow," of the country, have hitherto sustained all my public acts as their Cleek, by large and respectable majorities; my own heart tells me, that the will and wish of the people, when fairly expressed, and supported by constitutional law, will always be most cheerfully obeyed, so long as there remains a hair on the head of JAMES DILL. Lawrenceburgh, la. Oct. 14, 1836. P. S. Being at present busily engaged in the duties of my office, time will not permit me to give a more ex tended view of this matter, which will be done soon, and also embracing oth
er matters of interest to our common
