THE ELECTIONS.

We have no desire to bandy words with

our neighbor of ihe Sun, or unv of its wri

ters; but it is our duty to give such infor

mation to our readers as we receive and

believe to be true. Tl,., 1:1..., c. ii

North Carolina, has a majority of niort

than two thousand votes in forty (out ol sixty odd) counties in th:;t state, which 1 .". K 1 1 l i i .

In Alabama the whig cause has gained several members of the legislature, and it is vet uncertain which party may prevail

in uiai ooin ; nut mere can no no reasona

prevail.

Satisfactory information is received from Iouisiana, that on joint ballot of the next 1 ;.,! , tU. :n u i -ii

no worthy and accepted mason, can vote

eieserving, ami ms electioneering letters

are of no avail."

Our neighbor has not yet informed his

subscribers, that our own stale will have

a decided majority of Harrison men in the

next legislature, notwithstanding the momentary defalcation of this senatorial district. With joy and confidence in the authentic and cheering accounts we receive

from all parts ol tin? country, we now call

upon our lncnds, the friends of Harrison

and freedom, to throw off their lethargy

let them "be aware of the enemy" he

prowls about "like a roaring lion;" but if

jt they will only arouse themselves, and do their duty, their triumph will be certain

and all will be well. ICpVV'e have to postpone a eommuni

tlow long is it since some of the well known Van Huren speculators (possibly the writer of the article in the Western

Sun) reported in Owen and in Putnam

counties, that our late member of Con

gress was a Roman Catholic, to defeat his

election, when the originator of the tale

knew, that ho visited all, but "belonged to

no Church" and there was no other real foundation for the falsehood, than that he had contributed to erect the new Cathe

dral! Did not the false story deprive the accused candidate of hundreds of votes unjustly, and can the Roman Catholics now be humbugged to vote with such Van

Huren partisans as we have alluded to, who

propagated a falsehood to bring their holy

religion into disrepute, or to injure a can-'

FOR THE VIN'CKNNES GAZKTTI:.

THE POPE AND MR. VAN BUREN

This is an unconscionable, if not im

pious heading, to an article in last week's Western Sun. It connects (for political

efl'ect) the sacred appellation of "His Ho

liness, with the name of a political in

triguer, said to be a libidinous old rake!

The evident design was to cozen a few

French citizens, and induce them to vote;

for Van Biiren: but the design must der i . i . i - ii i -

icaiiise ii, ee'n oy una unsuitable and improper connection. We are, notwith

standing, in elutv bound, to advert to the

article, to prevent any good man from being entaugled by it or in the words of

Scripture, to forewarn and aelvise all, so

that no one "may be maelc the captive of

the ungodly."

tempted to think the men who make such

attempts, are not too pious (it it were necessary to the accomplishment of their

purpose) "to crucify the son of God

we humbly desire to be cemsidered the friend of all christian sects, laboring to make our fellow man good, benevolent, and happy. We lament to see any cause

for religienis controversy introduced into a political newspaper; and we deprecate all

direct or indirect appeals to religious sects

made and countenanced by any sect, we may then predict, that the undefiled religion of eternal truth must, as far as such example becomes contagious, soon be prostituted and abused. It is fervently

hoped, that the good and the upright of

every sect and of everv partv, will dis

This job, consists of excavating and removing rock from the channel, and will amount to about 300 cubic yards more or less, and is relet in consequence of its abandonment by former contractors.

FLORENCE is delightfully situated in th county of White, on the YVabiish river nbout

eighty miles above its mouth, and is the only sit

in the whole intervening distance where a good landing for Steamers can lie found, either on the

Illinois or Indiana side of that river. From this

place the river is navijnhlefor Steam boats to tho Hiint of its junction with the Ohio, at all time when they run on the last mentioned river? and it

is the oniy place below the Grand Rapids which is not subject to lie overflown in high water, on which

a town could lie advantageously laid out. Hon Fas creek which flat boats descend from 40 miles aliove its mouth, unites its waters vfith those of the Wa

bash at this point. Its situation is believed to be as

healthy as anv on this river. A few miles x w of it is

the wealthy and flourishing settlement of Albion.

I he country around it, abounds with the finest

timlier is inhabited by an enterprising and indus

trious population, and interspersed with farms, which in luxuriance of soil and high state of cultivation, will not lose bv comparison with any wc.t

of the mountains. It commands the trade not only of YVhite, but alsoof several adjacent counties, arid from the nature of its position, it is destined tobc the dividing point of trade between the

northern and southern portions of the rich valley

of the YV'abash. To the merchant, the manufacfacturer, the mechanic Sc the siieculator, it presents inducements of no ordinary character, as it may

safely be asserted, that no town on the Wabash riv

er has better prospects of arriving at great commercial imjmrtance, and few indeed as good. A plot

f the aforesaid town is open to inspection at thn ouse of Thos. Bishop in Vincennes, and at th

Ihce of O. B. Ficklin in Mt. Carinel. Illinni
