FROM THE INDIANA JOURNAL.

SURPLUS REVENUE. SMALL NOTES, &c. The Legislature during the session just closed, passed a law to amend the act of 1837, providing for the distribution of the surplus revenue received by this State from theUniied Stales among the several counties. As this law contains some very important alterations of the existing laws, we take this early portuniiy of presenting our readers with a careful stract of its most material provisions.

The act provides that the sinking fund, the surolus revenue fund, the college fund, the saline fund, and the State Bank school fund, shall be drawn in and vested in Bank stock, in the name and for the State, with a proviso that as soon as the surplus revenue is converted into bank stock each Branch in granting discounts, shall give a preference to each county in proportion to the amount of surplus revenue collected from, it, upon the presentation of unexceptionable paper for discount. It is made the duty of all the agents of said funds, except of the Sinking fund, to pay over all moneys now in their hands, or which may hereafter come into their hands, without any unnecessary delay, into the Branch of the State Bank iliat may be deemed the most convenient. Upon the reception of any of the funds, it becomes the duty of the Branch to enter all such payments in its books to the credit of the State, subject to the order ol the Sinking Fund Commissioners, whose duty it is to invest the same in Bank stock, either bv increasing the capital of Branches already organized, or by investing it in behalf of the State for the purpose of organizing additional Branches already authorized to be organized, a? the commissioners may deem most conducive to the interest of the State.

Before the surplus revenue, distributed among the different counties,can be withdrawnand converted into Bank stock, the boards of county commissioners must decide in its favor at a special session called for that purpose on the 2d Monday in August next. The failure to hold such a special session will be taken as an acqniesenceinfavoroftlie withdrawal of the surplus revenue and its conversion into Bank stock. When decided affirmatively, it becomes the duty of the loaning agent of this lund to pay over to the nearest Branch of the State Bank all the money in his hands, and proceed immediately to the collection of the amount outstanding as it falls due. Provided, however, if any debtor to this fund shall desire longer time, it shall be granted to him at six per cent, interest upon delivering his note to the proper Branch with sufficient endorsers, for the payment of the sum he may owe. Such Branch is required to permit the renewal of said note on the first day of January in each year, upon the payment of onefifth part of the sum originally due, until the whole is paid. The Bank may, in its discretion, grant any indulgence to such debtor, which it usually grant's to otliur borrowers and upon being satisfied ofiheinsuffi

protested and sued upon at any time, after notice given nnd a failure to add additional security, in a reasonable time, tho proper Branch, instead of making this arrangement, may receive the vxisting mortgages where deemed sufficient and where the personal, or the mortgage security is deemed insufficient, the borrower may give mortgage security, if preferred to personal, on unincumbered real estate of double the value of the amount to he securcd. The act makes ample provision to secure the safe transfer and delivery of all moneys, notes, bonds, mortgages. See. to tho Branches of the State Bnnk.

The Commissioners of the Sinking Fund may extend the time of payment to the borrowers of that Fund for five years, upon their present security, or if deemed not sufficiently giving additional satisfactory security such borrowers to pay the same interest as required by the former laws. The Salino Fund is rendered subject to similar provisions.

The present agents of the surplus revenue aro continued in office, subject to removal by the county boards, who aro authorized to fill all vacancies.

The dividends arising from the State stock created by this law are duly appropriated to the same uses and purposes for which the funds aforesaid and their proceeds were originally set apart and created the respective branches are required to pay over to the School Commissioner of each county its proportionate shnro of the interest derived from the stock created out of the surplus revenue and also to pay over to the proper person the amount due the State university.

A general feelina of gloom was spread through the city, and also in Washington, bv the intelligence from Philadelphia. The stocks of tnat city are, of course, much depressed, U. S.

The privilege grantnd the bank of issuing notes of a less denomination than five dollars, by a previous law of the recent session, is enlarged for a period of five years Irom the 1st day of January, 1841, and the trouble and responsibility of the State Bank in collecting and managing said funds, is to be in full consideration of the one par cent, required to be paid by the Bank to the Stale on tho amount ol small notes which may be issued and nothing in any act heretofore passed shall adulphia.

FOB rUBLlSHINQ, IN THE TOWN OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA,

A N E W W I A E

TO BE CALLED THE

"INDIANA STATE GAZETTE."

THK undersigned, having beon olocled by the Legislature of Indiana, State Printers, pro jiose publishing, os soon ns a sufficirnt number of subscribers are obtained to warrant the undertaking, a new weekly paper, to be called the "Indiana State Gazette."

In presenting this prospccius to the public for their patronage for a new Democratic Whig paper at Indianapolis, we do so at the solicitation and urgent request of a large and influential number of our political friends throughout the State and we cannot for a moment doubt that an undertaking, so much in accordance with public sentiment, and so well calculated to advanco the principles of constitutional liberty and genuine' democracy, will receive from tho public a liberal support.

Wo deem it unnecessary at this time to enter into an elaborate exposition of the principles that shall govern our editorial course because, having been identified with the 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 late Presidential contest, were made the issues between those who desired to extend, and those who wished to limit, Executive power. a«K*»u therefore advocate, as essential to the perpetuity of our republican institutions, -one Presidential term a restr.ction of the power and a limitation of the patronage of the Executive rotrenclmicnt and economy in the public expenditures in the various departments •of Government tho regulation of the tariff, by imposing duties upon articles of luxury and the establishment of home valuations, at su^h rates as may be found sufficient to meet the •current expenses of the Government, and to liquidate the existing public debt, and incidcn tally conduce to a restoration of home manufactures, and the efiectual encouragement of American industry,so as to release the proceeds of the sales of the public lands from their present application, and distribute them where the interests of the American people so imperatively require the establishment and restoration of a sound and uniform currency, and nn improved system of exchanges throughout the country the continuation and 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 of the jieople. To aid the new administration to carry out these cardinal principles npon which the lata contest was decided, will be one of the main purposes of the State Gazette being, in our estimation, objects of scarcely inferior importance to that of sustaining the credit, honor and permanent welfare of the State, which every true hearted cittsen will say, must be done at all hazards and at every sacrifice.

On the exciting and embarrassing question of internal improvements, believing, as wc do, that the classification of our public works is essential to the credit of the Stale, both at home and abroad, and tliat a total abandonment of operations on a//, 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 more with as little delay as may be consistent with the means of the State. ^.

Instead of considering ourselves the advocates of county, sectional, or local inlerests/we shall endeavor to take an extended view of the interests, wants and wishes of the

and to make our sheet, what its name imports, emphatically a "State Gazette." Though the main object of the "Gazette" will be to discuss and disseminate correct political information, we shall endeavor to make it an early medium of new% and an advocate of the Agricultural, Manufacturing, and other great interests of Indiana.

With the view of making the Garotte acceptable to geutlemen of the bar, careful reports of cases 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 of private life, or expose to the public gate private character.

The Indiana State Gazette will be published every Wednesday morning, on an extra imperial sheet, and carefully mailed to subscribers at'the rate of $2 50 per annum in advance 93 00 if paid at the expiration of six months or 50 at the end of the volume. No subscription will be discontinued until all arrearages arc paid, unless at the option of the editors. As payment in advance will be to the mutual advantage of both the patrons and pub* Ushers, that modewill in all ca*c« beprcCerretl. JOHN DOW LING,.. .RICHARD COLR.

The Baltimore and De laware Banks have also fol lowed the suspension in Philadelphia. On Saturday the 6th, there was a steady run upon the former, and

There was a meeting of the delegates on Saturday evening, but it adjourned to Monday morning without having decided upon anything. An application to the Legislature for indulgence is contemplated. The antibank party had a meeting on Friday—Henry Horn in the chair—and recommended the Governor to enforce the penalties. On Saturday there was an informal meeting, Mr. Dallas chairman, that resolved to call a town meeting, for the purpose of ascertaining the public feeling relative to the course most advisable to be pureued by the Banks, and to memorialize the Legislature for some immediate action. There appears to he a disposition in certain quarters to leave the U. S. Bank out of consideration entirely. Several suits have been commenced.

Much difficulty and inconvenience was experienced on Saturday, for the want of change to pay workmen, and for other purposes, the small bills having been very nearly withdrawn from circulation. The Banks would not pay specie but for their $5 bills, and of course would notpay out any thing under ten dollars for checks.

The money market in New York was quite unsettled on Saturday the 6th tnst. in consequencc of this state of things. The Stock Market was also much depressed. Upwards of 1550 Bhares of the U. S. Bank were sold—

The other banks resolved to hold out, but were driven to the dernier resort yesterday by the excitement, which led to large drafts for specie. They all continued to pay specie for their $5 bills. The U. S. B. has been cited before Judge King, to show cause of refusal to pay her 10 notes. She is allowed ten days to file her answer or to pay the money. It is believed that the Legislature, now in session, will extend some indulgence. The large drafts were chiefly from New York.
