RISING SUN:
SATURDAY,. NOVEMBER 19, 1836. THE NEWS. We have bo neiw of any great importance lor our readers, except it may be neics to learn lbt neici is very scarce. The elections, of late, seem to have engrossed every thin? else By this time, they are over with, in most of the States. 1 he returns come in slowly, and are quite unsatislacto ry, as the chief partis rumor, e nav nothing from Texas. From Florida, 1 l . " vj w-mi we read, we learn that the war with the Indians is still kept up. We have refrain ed. for srim 1 1 m n.-t i. ! i ... , ci, iu (luuiisn any tning relating to this war, for the reason that the accounts which have reached us were quite vague anu unsatisfactory. (7-We publish to-day another article on the subject of Foreign Emigration, from a New York paper. Be it understood, however, that it does not follow, as a roaiter of course, because we publish it, that we entirely concur in all the sentiments of the writer. The reverse is the case. We arc opposed to stopping emigration entirely, and closing our doors on the noncji auu inausinous; but we are in favor of imposing some restraints on emigration as it is at present. In what way and manner this shall be done, we must leave to older and abler heads than ours. We believe, however, that it is a u!ject which will, at no distant day, cause interesting debate in our halls of legislation. 0"The steamboat Dolphin is now lying at this place undergoing repairs. We understand that that she will be ready to resume het regular tripsin the course of a few day. STEAMBOAT ACCIDENT. On Thursday morning last, the steambcat Flora, bound up, at the wood yard, at the head of Laugherv island, about four miles above this place, burst her connection pipe, and scalded five or six persons. A physician was sent for at this place, but before he arrived, another boat come up and took the Flora in tow. We have been unable to learn any further particulars. THE BRIDGES. Wc are pleased at being able to state, that the Bridges now being erected over Arnold's creek one near the mouth, and the other where James's old saw mill formerly stood are in such a state of forwardness as to ensure their completion as speedily as workmen can be had, ad the timber furnished. Thesebridges, whon finished, will be of vast convenience to our country friends, and of decided advantage to the citizens of town. FLOUR $8 PER BARREL. Flour has kept steadily on the advance, until it ba reached EIGHT DOLLARS pCr barrel! How long it will rennin at this, none can tell, except it be the millers. There is no prospect of the price declining. THE ELECTION. Our readers, of course, will expect to hear omething of the late election for President. We have but little official information Rumor i abundant. Our own State is claimed by both parties. Ohio has gone for Harrison majority about 7,000. Kentucky has gone for Harrison, majority not known. Pennsylvania is claimed by both parties both parties are very confident. The last rumor from Tennessee is, that the contest was close between White and VTan Buren. Never did wc know the returns of an election so slow coming in, or the result so mixed up with doubt and uncertainty. fj-At the recent session of the Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in this State, the Rev. Messrs. J. Tarkisgton and Lewis Hurlbut, were appointed for the Vevay circuit; and the Rev. Messrs. Jas. Jones and W. B. Ross, for the L,awrenceourgnci. The following patagraph is from the Indianapolis Journal ol the 1 2th instant The State Bank of Indiana has recei ved orders to pay over to this State, on the 1st day of January, 1836, two hun dred and fifty thousand dollars, being one-fourth of the amount of the surplus revenue that Indiana will receive. The Divment are to be made quarterly, and conseauenlly this State will receive, in the next twelve months, one million of dollars. Omer Tousey, Esq. of this place, re turned from the east a few dayi since, krinnintr with him between one and two hundred thousand dollars, mostly jn gold and silver, for the use of the ail road from this place to inaianapoSis. The work is progressing rapidly in the hands of the present rnterpncontractors; and we have not the tlirrhtest doubt that in less than three years, the entire line will be in comnlptr operation. The company are in dail v expectations of receiving one hundred thousand dollars more from the ,s the bonds are in market, and in nil probability have been disposed of ere this. t'allanium (t-Much has been said about the tn...w,v,c of the above company, when they cot hold of the money. We shal toon tee, now that they have a portion of the money, whether they actually ap dIt it to the purpose intended, or whe ther ,t be applied to private specula tion. The expectations of many, must be confirmed or disappointed. At New Orleans, Oct. 29, Flour was
worth $9 50 and $10 per bbl.
THE EDITOR.
We found the foHowing paragraph the other day in an exchange paper. We know not where it come from, but there is too much truth in it to let it pass. "The path of an Editor is not over thickly planted with roses. In the silence of the night, when men forget that they live, or bathe their spirit in rosy dreams of bliss when sorrow has forgotten to tug at the heart, and ambition to fire the brain he sleeps not. By the dim lamp he wanders through the fields of thought, or by (he shores of the sea of knowledge, gathering pebbles wherewith to build his feeble fabric. Often he is misunderstood mis represented taunted mocked and disappointed. Ofti'ii does icy neglect freeze his glowing thoughts, and nip his young hopes. The careless sneer the crushing insinuation the covert slander the open denunciation all wait to feed unon him." Too true! The following is the official return ('ays the Vevay Times! of the votes poiied in the several townships of Swilzerland county, on the 7(h instant, for rresiaent and V ice 1'resident of the U. States: Harrison Jefferson town'p. 276 York " 49 Posey H5 Cotton " 78 Pleasant " 83 Craig " 29 Total, 630 Majority for Harrison, FAIRS. We are gratified to hear of the num ber and spirit of she Agricultural Fairs leld this (all. Much good has been done by them, and very much more may be done. We regret however, to iear of a falling cu in one or two coun ties for example, in Rush county, from which we, and every body had a right to look for better things. 1 hree active, persevering men in a countv. with the proper amount of zeal and ag ricultural enterprise, will keep these milters moving. The people must be tirred up on the subject: and the bur den of doing this must fall on a few pirited men. to this they must conent to submit for the public good. Never give it up. Every year will make your labor in this good cause more light and pleasant, and the re ward of success will abundantly compensate for your labor. Indiana farmer. Rising Sun Lyceum. THE members of the Rising Sun Lyceum, and those disposed to become members, are requested to meet at the Methodist Church, this evening, at eary candle light. It is hoped there may be a general attendance, as it is desirarable that the Lyceum be organized for the coming winter. SEVERAL MEMBERS. November 19, 1836. M Altai cn.
