FOR PRESIDENT IN 1S36. GEN. WM. H. HARRISON, Of Ohio, Nf.ws is a rar commodity in this town - If the irregularity of the mails be the fruit of Amos Kendall, his deputies, his contractors, or whatever else, we cannot demonstrate. By our last Eastern papers the proffered mediation of England to arrange the difficulties with France, ha9 been accepted: consequently, our peace with that nation will be preserved. Our peace with Mexico is very uncertain Texas is in possession of citizens of the United States, who claim to be independent; and certain leading partisans of the present administration are owners of land in Texa, and reputed to be concerned in the result. In addition to this, the President threatened Mexico, in his last mesa t sv a Is r- f r f j r rt tl cli a f rr mi s nnt rOQ t!i.l

' wouiu nave s ucceenea, nau noi uu. ucu tral timidity and the futile charge of trea. son against the government of the United States, cut the great and bold project to pieces in its inception. Had the plan sueI II u 1' I II UJ U ceeded, General Jackson might possibly . r i, ; x though it would subsequently have deprived (his country of the blessings of his reign, nevertheless would have been of immense benefit to that country in the de velopement of its resources in the lights of civilization in the destruction of bigo try and intolerance, and the advancement of educa ion and the arts but it may not . . . , . .it . r i u Jio Inn lolo inl t mav vpt find thp nlri chief in Texas we may yet find him at the head of an army, which will flock in countless numbers to his standard we may yet &ee him crossing the Rio Grande -we may yet. hear him in his triumphal march over the country of Montezuma, Ataliba,and Cusco. JVihil adrnirari!" Gen. Tipton has moved in the Senate, to increase the standing army and "the party," to get office, will cry, " increase it!" If our administration interfere in the difficulties or contemplated conquest of Mexico, will not all Europe be in arms? XV fear such would be the inevitable consequence. For the peace and happiness of this Union, we desire Van Buren to be defeated. By his defeat, our peace nnd proaperity will be rendered certain, as far as depends upon our own acts not so, if he prevails. In our neighbor's paper of the 23 1 Jan uary, is contained a flaming oflicial statement of the pioceedings of the Democrat ic Republican Convention of the State of Indiana, friendly to the nomination of Martin Van Buren and Richard M. Johnson for the offices of President and Vice President of the United States, in which official is included the names of iodiv iduals purportingto representsixty-two counties of this State. How far the statement of the names of those persons are correct, and the counties represented true, we infer from the following : Our neighbor (remember he was present, and acted on the momentous occafion as one of the Vice Presidents,) ineerts the whole of the proceedings as atrue bill: he says,44 the following gentlemen appeared, produced their credentials, and took their seats as Delegates in the Convention." Among others named, are, from Daviess, Elijah Eads, Thomas C. Moore, Michael Davis; from Martin, John Taylor, John B. King. A. B.Clifford, D. WcConnell, William Robb, sen'r. Now we have indisputable authority from a gentleman residing in Daviess county, whose character and veracity are unimpeachable, for saying, that Elijah Eads of Daviess, was not present that Martin county was unrepresented and that there are no such persons residing in Martin as John Taylor, John B. King, A. B. Clifford, D. McCounell, and William Robb, sen'r. Our correspondent concludes thus : "I am well acquainted in Martin, and have inquired of others who are intimate with the people of that county, and have satisfied myself, that the names of the Delegates to the Van Buren Convention from Martin county, as printed in the Western Sun, are entirely fictitious, at least ther. are no persons of those Damea residing in the county." Pray, neighbor, bow many more "men of straw" have you on yonr list of Dele gates at the Convention, in which you of ficiated as one of the Vice Presidents Would you 4,feel unpleasant" in pointing them out T COURTS IN KNOX COUNTY.

The steamboat Fairy Quien, on her passage up stream, on Sunday last, struck a snag about four miless below this place, and sunk immediately, in sven leet water. By the unremitting and laborious efforts of the passengers and crew however, she was raised, and arrived here on Monday evening last . She was laden principally with salt, and the damage to the carg will probably not exceed one thousand dollars. The Fairy Queen has gone up stream, having repuired here sufficient to justify the experiment. Wabash Courier. The Bridgescater Treatises. The Rev.

Ihe lollowing Message was receveo from the President of the United Slates PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE ON THE MEDIATION. To the Senate And House of Representatives. The government of Great Britain has offered its mediation for the adjustment of the dispute between the United States and France, carefully guarding that point in ihe controversy, which, as it jinvolves; our honor and independence, admits of no compromise. I have cheerfully accepted the offer. Itwill be obviously improper to resort even to the mildest measures of a compulsory character, until it is ascertained whether France has declined oraccepted the mediation. I tberetorei recommeod a suspension of all proceed ing on that part of my Special Message, of the 15th January last, which proposes a partial non intercourse with France. While we cannot too highly appreciate the elevated and disinterested motives of the offer of Great Bi itain, and have a just reliance on the great influence of that power to restore the telationa of ancient friendship between the Uoited States and France, and know too, that our own pacific policy will be strictly adhered to until the national honor compels us to depart from it, we should be insensible to the exposed condition of our country, and for get the lessons of experience, if we didnot efficiently and sedulously prepare for an adverse result. The peace of a nation does not depend exclusively upon its own will, nor upon the beneficent policy of neighboring powers; and that nation which shall be found totally unprepared for the exigencies and dangers of war, although it come without having given warning of its approach, is crirnirtally neglected of its honor and its duty. I cannot too strongly repeat the recommenda tion already made to place tbe seaboard in a proper state of defence, and promptly to provide the means foramplj protecting our commerce. ANDREW JACKSON. Washington, Feb. 8lh, 1G36. Murdkr.

The murderers then made their escape, and reached the City Hotel, where for a time they succeeded in baffling the attempts of a large and respectable body of citizens and night watch from discovering thern; when, at length, two of the most conspicuous actors in this horrid feast of blood, were found bedded together a murderer in a murderer's arms, covered beneath sheets polluted by the blood of their victim! They were immediately dragged te confinement, together with another. We saw the deadly instrument taken from beneath the pillow of Whittaker's bed, Hotted with the very fat and blood of poor Murphy heart. Whittaker, we understand, has since ao knowledged that ho had murdered the unoffending so far as we know hs character and worthy young man All comments from us are useless.

TWENTY-FOURTH CONGRESS. T10CSE OF UETRF. StNTATlVES. SEMINOLE HOSTILITIES. The House on motion of Mr. While, of Florida, ngred to suspend the rule for the consideration nftha following joint resolution: Resolved, by the Senate and House of Representatives, in Congress assembled, That the President of the United States be eathorized to c ause rations to be delivered from the public stores, to the unfortunate sufferers who have been driven from their homes by Indian depredations in Florida, until they can be re established in their possessions and enabled to procure provisions for the sustenance of themselves nnd families. The resolution having been twice read, the Mouse, on motion ot Mr, White, agreed to con sider it now . Mr. VV. said that he would not occupy the time of the Ilcuse further than to say, that in t.ast Florida, 500 families were driven from their homes, and had their possessions destroy ed in the progress of n war which had commen ced, in consequence of relations between this government and the Indians, and with which the sufferinginhabitants of that country have had nothing to do Appropriations had frequently been made to succor Indians when in circuratnnces of dis tress, and he hoped that no member of the House would. object to the adoption of the resolut on lor the succor ot our own citizens. Mr. Parks, of Maine, expressed his opinion thnt there wns no precedent in the legislation of this conntry for the adoption of such a reso lution, and he thought that it ought not at least to be established without mature reflection. He hoped the resolution would lie over until Monday mi. i .num. oi irini;t, umnm ir.ere wh:T.. !.. r t-? : .1 .1 raiJci, force jn ,he rrmark of (he entIrm;tli tow Maine, and lie thought the question of

precedent waj one wl.'uch ombt to be weighed

by the House. He thought, however, that the enquiry should extend still further to the fact, whether there was any principle upon which suh a precedent could be sustained. As to precedent merely thre was no conceivable ubuse in the legislations of this country for which a precedent could not be found. Instead of look'jing to precedents as guides to right, we ought " to reward tlinri as beacons to vummr. Mr. P. '! to rPgar(i Uie.n as beacons to wronr.

Sir, I rejoice that they have done so. Mr. Cambreleng rose to explain, and Mr. G. yielded the floor. Mr. C. said that great injustice had been done in the newspapers to the conduct pursued by the Departments. The committee of Ways and Means had been furnished with the first communication on which they acted by the Secretary of war. They next day received a second communication, with all the documents relating to the Indian war, and which contained all the information that was requisite. The docu ments had not gone forth to the public which was an extraordinary circumstance. They i inij wt-ic rtui. wj uic l-uiu iiu nee i u mis nouse and ought to have accompanied the bill, nnd been printed, and sent to the Senate. If they had, the erroneous imprcs.-ion as to the remissness of the Department or the Executive, would not have gone into the newspapers. It was not the fault of the Executive, or of the committee of Ways and Means, that this hs,d not been done. Mr. Granger resumed : If the gentleman ha:l listened to me a littlo longer, he would have discovered that I intended no censure upon the Executive ; but a3 he has chosen to 'challenge me to speak, I do say that the history of Ihis nation can preseut nothing like the silence that has existed on this subject. I do say, that whilst this Hall lias been ringing with the plaudits of one administraiion, and whilst wo have been called upon day after day to bunt up the bones of dead (juarrels here whilst your settlements have been laid was.sand desolate no communication has been made to ths House as a branch of the Government. Whatever information you have, even upon the gentleman's own showing-, is a letter from the Secretary of War to the chairman of thu committee of Way s and Me .ns. Mr. Cambreleng : That letter contained ell that was necessary. .Mr. fjr continued : Sir, I repeat that, with oaly of a war which might take plat e hereafter wini a loreign nation, but also to discover whether a war was last year likely to have existed. We have war enough upon our hands to take care of. The war cry is up in the woods tbe tomahawk glitters in the sunbeam the scalping knife is urged to its cruel duty the flower of your chivalry is strewed alalia the plain aad yet every department of this administration is as dumb as the bleeding victims of this inglorious contest. This would not have been said, sir, if the cnt!etuan from New York had not cut short what I intended to say. I he situation of r lorida is unlike that of the coantry alluded to by (he gentleman from Vir:inia. (Mr. I'niton.)

A bill for the re-rharter of the United States Bank, as our readers are already informed, has been for some time before the Legislature of Pennsylvania,. On the 29lhult. it pas?ed the Lower House by a vote of 57 to SO, and was sent to the Senate for its concurrence. On the l?t inst it passed the first reading in that body bv a majority of nine votes, and no doubt is entertained that it will become a law. Cincinnati Whig. Washington, Feb. 2d. 1836.
