THE SHIP PATRICK HENRY, ROM JUlTMfOOI..

We have (says the N.Y. Com. AdYeri'iaerjanoiberexiraordinary abort passage from Liverpool, bringing us Londou papers ihe 24th of December, and Liverpool to the 25th, both inclusive They were brought by the Patrick Henry, Captain Delano, after a pamage of twenty flay a. Capt- D. *siled from Liverpool on the Both nnd anchored in the Lower Bay on the 14th,

Although the pessage lias been made in the tmdat of winter, the Patrick He»ry has had asumtter'trip—light easterly winds, and a smooth sea the whole passage, and not even a topsail was reeled until Monday last, when the ship was off Nantucket, where there -wasa moderate gale from the westward.

The commercial accounts

are favorable. The .sales

of cotton at Liverpool during the week ending 24tli of December, amounted to nearly 40,000 bales, and an advance of a id. is noted.

The 3ri(i*h Queen arrived off Cowes on tire 20th of December. She left New York on the 1st of that month. The Great We*tern arrived at Bristol on the 23d. She left this city on the 8th epap ity of the winter, on the continent as well as in land.

Rear Admiral S. J. Carden has published a Ion ter in the Times. all about the United States and our ships of war, and how oar ships are and always have been manned by British sailors—how it was British valor on board American ships that gained so many naval victories during the late war, ccc. &c. Withal, his letter contains a plentiful sprinkling of ugly epithets, levelled against us sinful Yankees. Is not this the same Captain Carden who commanded the Macedonian when she was captured by the United States?

At a late hour this afternoon there were rumors in cireulation respecting some failures, but we could not trace them to any authentic source.

The transactions in themercantle markets continue apon an extremely small scale, and almost exclusively confined to the wants of the home consumers, there being a total absence of speculation, while the export season is closed except for some of the near foreign pons.

WARLIKE PREPARATIONS.

The Frankfort Journal of the 18th states that four regiments of Austrian cavalry were expected in Munich, on their way to the Vorarlberg, where a corps of observation is about being formed.

According to advices front Vienna of the 11th jnst. th4fcu(Hri«n government wns seriously thinking ofteinforcing the gntrisons of the German federal fortresses. Four resiineot# of infantry, two of cavalry, two battalions »f cnassertrsf two batteries of artillery, ami another of flying artillery, were under morqhing orders for that destination.

The CoMrrltr de la Moselle states that the levies of men were carried on with so much rigor in Rhenish Hovarin that the students of theology, who had been exempted from military service during the rising en mane oH813, were now obliged to join the army. The substitutes, who could be procured some time sgo for 300 florins, cost at present between 1,200 and 1500.

PORTUGAL,!,

There must bo wars, or at least rutriofa of Ware, in Europe. Now that the civil contcsi in Spain has ended, and that France has begun to leave off thinking of baitles with all the other powers, a speck of strife has arisen between 8pain and Portugal. The cause may be thus brwfly stated:—

The original treaty for the navigation Of the Douro was executed in August, 1835, by which a mixed commission was appointed to fix a tariff and regulations connected therewith. The first set of commissioners met to deliberate thereon, and finally came to certain conclusions, which, when submitted to the Portuguese Government, were rejected. The sittings of these, or of other commissions— for it does not clearly appear which—were then resumed, nnd terms finally settled between them. On this latter modification of the treaty a report was presented to the Portuguese Cortes in the session just ended. The delay which ensued in the discussion ol this matter by the Portuguese Legislature has been sdopted by the Spanish Government for a ground of complaint of the most serious nature, notwithstanding the declaration in the Queen's speech on closing the session, that it would be one of the principal objec's of discussion in the new session to be commenced on the 2d ol January.

The Portuguese are begining to grumble, it seems, at the expenses of their royalty. A Lisbon paper gives a calculation showing that the people pay to the Crown 11. per cent, more than the French, 122 moro than the English, 25 more than the Belgians, 7 more than the Spanish, and 12.800 more than the American, and to King Ferdinand 675 more than the English pay to Prince Albert and that in proportion to her revenues, Portugal pays five times more thnn France, six more •.hnn England, nearly twice that of Belgium, and onefifth less than Spain to Don Ferdinand nlinost 83 times more than England to Prince Albert.

FOIt PUBLISHING, IN THE TOWN OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA,

A N E W W I I I A E

TO BE CALLED THE

I N I A N A S A E A E E

Thr undersigned, having been islocted by the JjCgislnturc of Indiana, State Printers, propose publishing, as soon oa sufficient number of subscribers are obtained to warrant the undertaking, a now weekly papor, to be called tho "Indiana State Gazette."

In presenting this prospcctus to the public for their patronage for a new Democratic Whig paper at Indianapolis, we do so at tho solicitation and urgent request of a large and influential numbor of our political friends throughout the State and we cUnnot for moment doubt that an undertaking, so much in accordance with public sentiment, and so well c'ilculatcd to advance the principles of constitutional liberty and genuine democracy, will receive from tho public a liberal support.

VVo deem it unnecessary at this time to enter into an elaborate exposition of the principles that shall govern our editorial courso because, having been identified with ihe Whig press of Indiana for some time past, we presume it will be generally understood that we will support those principles of constitutional liberty, and those measures of retrenchment and reform, which,in the Into Presidential contest, were made the issuos between those who desired to extend, and those who wished to limit, Executive power.

We shall thorefore advocate, as essential to the perpetuity of our republican institutions, one Presidential torm a rest notion of the power and a limitation of the patronage of the Executive retrenchment and economy in the public expenditures in the various departments of Goveramsnt the regulation of the tariff, by imposing duties upon articles of luxury and ktho establishment of home valuations, at such rales as may be fottnd sufficient to meet the current expenses of the Government, and to liquidate the existing public debt, and incidentally conduce to a restoration of homo manufactures, and the effectual encouragement of

American industry, ao as to release the proceeds of the sales of the public lands from their present application, and distribute them where the interests of tho American people so imjwratively require? the establishment and restoration of a sound and uniform currency, and an improved system of exchanges throughout the country the continuation ajid completion of the great national internal thoroughfare, the National Road and the prevention of officers of the Federal Government from interfering with, or bringing the patronage and influence of their offices to bear upon, the elections or the people. To aid tho new administration to carry out these cardinal principles npon which the late contest was decided, will be ona of the main purposes of the State Gazette being,in our estimation, objects of scarcely interior importance to that of sustaining the credit, honor and permanent welfare of the State, which every true hearted oitizou will say, must be done at all hazards and at every sacrifice.

On the exciting and embarrassing question of internal improvements, believing, as we do, that the classification of our public works is essential to the credit of the State, both at home and abroad, and tliat a tottal abandonment of operations on all, could not fail to weaken the confidence of capitalists in the wisdom and stability of our State Councils, we shall advocate (without dictating or designating any work or works which should receive a preference) the policy of completing one or moro with as little delay as may be insistent with the mean* of

Instead of considering ourselves the advocates of county, sectional, or local interests, we shall endeavor to take an extended view of the interests, wants and wishes of the wholb State, and to make our sheet* what its name imports, emphatically a Rotate Gazette.

Though the main object of the "Ga*»ttcM will be to discuss and disseminata correct political information, we shall endeavor to make it an early medium of news, and an advocate of the Agricultural, Manufacturing, and other great interests of Indiana.

With the view of making the Gaxette acceptable to geutlemen of the bar, careful reports of casea decided by the Supreme Court will be published during its sessions, after the manner of the Kentucky papers.

Whilst we deem the public acts of public men legitimate objects of animadversion, we shall studiously avoid that licentiousness of the press, which would invade the sanctuary d£ private life, or expose to the public gaze private character.

The Indiana State Gaaette will be published every Wednesday morning, on an extra

RECOGNITION OF TEXAS*

The committee of the AntiSlaverjr Society .having transmitted fo Lord Palmerston their resolutions on the suSject of the recognition of Texas, his lordship has returned tli« following answer:— "Fokf.igh Office. Dec.14. l£40.

Sr-*I am directed by Viscount Palmerston to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 7»h instant, addressed to his Lordship, transmiting a copy of resolutions which the commit toe of the British and Foreign

Anti-Slavery Society pawed on the 2d inet., expressing their concern that her Majesty's Government should have entered into a coKimerdaI treaty with Texas, and protesting against the recognition of the independence of that republic by Grcat Britain.

I am, in reply, directed to state to you, that Lord Palmerston'very much regrets that Jbecomniiiteeshould take this view of the measure which has been adopted rd to Texas but appear to Lord raimenston, on the ode hand, that the refusal of Great Britain to conclude a commercial treaty with Texas would have had any effect in inducing the Texians to abolish slavery within their territory nor on the other ha«td, that the roncln* uion of such a treaty can have the effect of affording Texians any encouragement to continue the condition of slavery as part of their law. "It may indeed be hoped that thegreaterintercourse between Great Britain nnd Texas, which will probably result from the treaty, may have the effect of mitigating, rather than aggravating, the evils arising, out of

of the Texian Government, we give the substance of what the papers contain. A letter from Austin, of 23d Dec., gives the following as the latest news: "My intention now is to give you some of the news received yesterday evening from San Antonio. Col. S—— has arrived at San Antonio, and states that the officers, troops, and all classes of citizens, speak incessantly of the war against Texas. From a privaln conversation with General Arista, he learned that two Americans, incognito, were sent into Texas to offer guarantees to the old settlors lor their persons and property—offering them 'rial by jury—their own Legislature and Executive—Freedom of their ports, provided they becdmc dependant on the Government ofMexico.

MURDER AND SPEEDY RETRliUTION. *Thc Arkansas Gazette relates the brutal murder of Maj. Thomas E. Clark, of Crittenden iounty, in that Stole, by two»of his own slaves. The negroes had absconded from nis plantation. Maj. Clark went in pur: snit of them, in company with Col. James Mnrtin.— They became .separated in the pursuit, and Maj. Clark came up with the negroes alone when they attacked him and beat him in the most shocking manner, causing instant death. Col Martin was within hearing of his cries for '«clp, but before he could reach the spot the foul deed had been fully consummated. Maj. Clark was alnative of the State of New York, and has left a wife and infant child to mourn their melancholy bereavement.

The citizens of Crittenden county, on learning the factB above narrated, immediately turned out and apprehended the negroes, and hung them on the nearest tree, as examples lor other refractory slaves. [N. O. i\e.
