posed that meeting, we have nothing to do—-we did not attend, ourselves, and consequently,have nothing but rumor upon which to form an opinion as to the object they hare in view—all of them we are proud to number in the list of those we call our frsends, but as faithful chroniclers of putting events, we feel ourselves compelled to sny, that so far as we arc enabled to judge, we ran see no possible good that will result to our State, either at home or abroad, by removing our present Chief Magistrate, than whom, we have never had one more able or efficient, and substituting in his stead, nn individual whom the people know nothing about, merely because he happen* to agree in politics, with the dominant party for the time being.

Agreeably to previous notice given, the Demo cratic Republicans met at the court-house, in Terre-IIaute, on Saturday the 23d day of Nov to appoint DeJegntes to the State Convention, to hfc held at Indianapolis on the 3d Monday of December next—J.

Resolved, That this meeting highly approves of the contemplated Convention, to be held at Indianapolis on the 2d Monday in December next, for the purpose of nominating suitable persons for Governor and Lieutenant Governor, and that we urgo the propriety of the State Convention, appointing Delegates to attend a National Convention at such time and place as the Democratic party of the Union may think proper.

There is no man,

at acquainted with its extent, who most not feel solicitude for the safety of oar institutions. Heretofore, this power, being placed in the hands of honest, sober, and discreet men, has (through the mildness and wisdom with which it has been exercised) excited but little jealousy in the public mind. Indeed, its extent, or rather the excess to which it may be carried, seems never to have been brought fully into view, until it fell into the hands of Jbis reckless and profligate administration. Jtuone believed, until Jackson and hia wicked counceilors rendered it no longer doubtful that the powers, legitimate or illegitimate, of the President of the United States, extended further than those of the King of England. But the problem has been so worked by the mischievous ingenuity of this administration that no man can longer doubt as to the

Among the rumors at Washington, we the following in the Intelligencer. There is a rumor in circulation, entitled to we do not know what credit, that the Secretary of the Treasury has apprised the President that he finds he cannot get along with his administration of the Finances now that the Treasury is deprived of the services of the Bank of the United States. It is even rumored that already tha foMj of the change in the Government depos itM HAS become mo apparent, that they are to be restored! Our readers will not understand us as vouching for the truth of these rumors, which come thick and fast one upon another. When

We stated a few days since, that the Legislature of Rhode Island had declared the election of Mi.Robbins, to the United States Senate, null and void and had elected in his place a man of the name of Porter, a person busy in the matter aft issue. This extraordinary act needs some explanation. It is known, perhaps, that the little State of Rhode Island has no constitution it contents itself with a charter from one of the Charleses of England. Some time since, the Legislature passed what was fdenominated "a perpetuation act which declared that if there was no election of State Senators, Governor and Lieutenant Governor, by the people, then those already in power should hold office until an election should be had. This situation of affairs occurred in 183d, and of course the Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Senate continued, while a new can vass was carried on: meantime a choice of i_re£Tfs|ti?ar? on7,i:

A train of three can—the two first loaded with passengers, and the third ccfataining btggage, were proceeding towards Philadelphia* between Heightstown and Spotaford. when one of tho axles of the forward car (B) broke, and the (A) which was next in the rear, dashing ngainst the former was thrown from the rails and opart, by which aocident a passenger in the 2d car, Mr. J. C. Steadman, silver-smith, of Raliegh, N. C. was instantly killed, and fiteen other* wounded, five or six of them severely. Among the wounded are Mr. C. Vanderbilt, and a Mrs. Bartiettnnd child,—the child nnd one man, it is feared, mortally. The whole number of passenger# in the second car was 35, including John Qutiuy «1dams, who escaped unhurt, as did all those in the forward car. raosi THE PHII.ADCl.rHI4 Oil. tf! THE MELANCHOLY DISASTER

We gather from the statements already published, that a Mr. Lex, or Rex, of New Lebanon, probaply of Ohio, was shockingly mnngled, so mnch so that he could not be removed. Mrs. Barrtlctt, of Washington, D. C. her sister, and two children, were injured. Miss Bartlett had her arm fractured. Mrs.Bartlett is the lady of Lt. Hart!ett U. S. N. They ore at Congress Hull, in this city. The Rev. Mr. West, of Washington, D. C. had his leg broken he is nt the house of the Rev. Mr. Tyng. Mr. Charles, of St. Louie, had his leg injured, though not broken^as...at firaj^supposed. He is at Sword's Hotel.

Mr. Stedman, the gentleman who was killed, is said to have coutinued rational to the last.— He gave directions with regard to his family, and the disposition of liis pioperty. He expre«sed his wish to die in Philadelphia, but when he found his final moments approaching, he prepared to meet his fate with tranquil resignation.

Hon. John Quincy Adntns was among the pnssengers in the foremost car. He escaped without injury. A child had SORM of its hones dangerously fractured, and is not expected to survive. A Mr. Dcvfous, of this pity, was injured, though not dangerously, Caj/t. Vanderbolt, of the New Brunswick steam boat, was badly wounded in the back, aud a gentleman near hitu had both his legs fractured.

It is probable that an investigation of this sad occurrence will be made, and the particulars formally reported. The speed of the train nt the time was certainly unwarrantable, as was evinced by the inability of the engineer to stop the locomotive nt once. Accidents of this kind a*e nlways liable to misrepresentation, but we hoje it will be found that this disaster arose from no undue competition.

A friend who was present at the above accident, has furnixhed us with the following list of the persons injured:

Mr. James ('. Stedman, of Rnleigh, N. C. a jeweller^killrd instantly. The only words he spoke Wefe, "Oh my poor wife nnd children."— Had a considerable sum of money in his possession.

Mr. Wells, Lebanon, Pa. both legs and both arms broken, also injured in the head, Not expected to recover.

Rev. John West, Newport, R. I. one leg broken, and injnred in the head, back and shoulders. Mr. Chcrles, of St. Louis, seriously injured ia the thigh.

Mr.King,Newport,R. I.badly hurt in the back, head, and shoulders. Dr. of Phillipsburgh, ribs broken nnd head injured, hut was able to assist in dressing the wounds of his fellow sufferers.

FRO« THE NATCIIBZ (ITANlUKO. THE ARRIVAL

Wc announced in our paper of Oct. 26, the arrival nt this port of the British barque Mary, from Liverpool, loaded principally with salt.— We understand that a great proportion of her inward cargo is sold, and that nearly all of her outward is engaged. She will leave here about the 36 of November, for Liverpool. It was a happy coincident—The arrival of tho Hritish vessel, Mary from the very port to which our Am cricau ship was about to snil.

THE DEPARTURE.

The ship St.Louis sailed from this port on Satur» day evening last, with a full enrgo of cotton fcr Liverpool. On htr leaving thc port, «alute« were exchanged between the citizcns of Natchc* and the captain nnd crew of tho Mary. The St. Louis was towed down by the "Walk-in-the-Wntcr.'* The sight was as novel as it was interesting. The steamboat was heavily loaded with cotton bales, Mliich gnve the appearance of a floating battery. She took twenty-seven hundred bnles of ootlin on hoard. A speed arrival of thc St. Louis at Liverpool,and prosperous termination of her enterprise is most heartily desired by all friends to thc agricultural aud commercial interests of Mississippi. gfe-
