TBftRE-HAUTE, SATURDAY JAN. 8. 1842.
PROPOSALS FOR CARRYING THE MAILS In our columns of this week will be found the proposals for carrying the Mails of the United States, from the 1st of July, 1842, to the 30th of June, 1848, in Indiana.
The Proposals to be re:eived at the Contract office of the Post Office Department, in the city of Washington, until the 14th day of
See Advertisement.
p..In consequence of the jlong Advertisement which will be found in our paper of to day, and which is published by authority, at the instance of the Post Master General, our columns will be greatly crowded for some tim«s to conrte. The department most likely to be encroached upon, will be the miscellaneous and literary. Still we shall endeavor so to arrange the whole paper, that every class of reader shall be, as far as possible, gratified.
LEGISLATIVE.
A joint resolution has been introduced re* quiring our Senators and Representatives in Congress to support Mr. Tyler's Fiscal Agent bill. The bill regulating the jurisdiction of Justices of the Peace in the counties of Knox and Vigo, has passed, and become a law. This bill limits the jurisdiction of Justices, in civil cases, to their respective townships. The appraisement bill, requiring property to bring two thirds of its real value, on ext cu* tion sales, is still befoie the Senate. A resolution has passed the lower House providing for an adjournment on the 31st January— but not yet concurred in by the Senate. A bill making State Script, given to Contractors on the Wabash and Erie Canal, receivable for canal lands, wns ordered ton thiid rend* ing. The resumption bill has not yet been carried through some propositi ns Imve been introduced, requiring the bunk to pay its five dollar notes in a short time—its tens, a month or two later—and finally to redeem all, in the course of five or six months. The Ijill reducing salaries is not yet passed.
CONGRESS.
Very little of a public or general character, is yet to be found it) the proceedings of Congress. Many debates haven risen, on referring the several parts of the President's Message,—some of tham rather interesting. It seems not to hflive been expected that much would be done until after New-Year's day. At the last dates, but one act had passed the House, and {gceived the signature of President—and that was making an appropriation iri part for defraying the expenses of the present Congress. No action by the House et, on the proposed Fiscal Agent. The plan, however, seems to be received with much fain the Senate several bills of a private vor. character have been reported. The Tariff* question will probnbly be one of excitement when it gels fairly up for debate.
A
memo
rial has been presented on behalf of an insurance office in New-Orleans, asking redress, in consequence of the. loss of the Formosa, a vessel loaded with slaves. The vessel was wrecked off Nassau—Her slaves seized and set free. The slaves were insuied against this risk—and Ihe company now ask relief from Congress.
FISCAL AGENT.
The universal interest felt on the sunject of the currency, and the plan suggested by the President, and presented by the Secretary of the Treasury, has induced us to give the bill at full length to our readers. The plan as recommended, seems to meet, more decidedly, the approbation of the community, than was at one time anticipated. Several papers most thoroughly hostile to the course of the President, in reference to the two bills pre sented at the summer session, have already expressed a willingness to sustain the present bill.
How far the plan will be carried out, it is, of course, impossible to tell Having to pass the ordeal of severe investigation in both Houses of Congress.
EMIGRATION.—The
Hon. C. Oakley, of
Illinois, has returned from Kurope. While abroad it is said, he succeeded in forming a company for the purpose of sending out emi grants to the West. When Mr. O. left, up wards of £200,000 had been subscribed. Offices will be opened in London,and in some principal town in Gern any, for the s*le of the lands. Emigrants are to be sent out in ships provided bv the company—probably direct to New Oneans, and thence up the Mississippi and tributaries. It is said there are great numbers of farmers in England and Germany who are anxious to reach the United States, and particularly the Western States. /'J '"V-
RIGHT OF SEARCH.
This question is becoming one of engrossing interest.-—We regret that the correspondence which lately took place between Mr. Stevenson and the'British Minister, is too long for our columns. It is highly interesting. The British insist that they ought to have the right of preventing their own subjects from dealing in the horrible traffic of human fled), even although they should hoist the American Flag.—While on the other hand, Americans say, that in the exercise of this right, claimed by the British, it too frequently happens, that real American Vessels are subjected to insult and detention, no looser to be submitted to. j&a 1 'Ats# w-*£
LOOK OUT EVBHTBODT.—Deputy Post Masters are directly instructed by circular from the P. O. Department, to exercise ti*e proper vigileittie in preventing frauds on the revenue, by writing on margins of Newspa pers, pamphlets, &c« Wrappers
THE DAILY
00
transient
papers and pamphlets, on arriving at their dertioatioo, are directed to be removed, and the papers examined.—And when the law has been violated, letter postage is to be charged, or the papers returned to the office where first mailed, and a penalty of five dollars Collected from the person wtn committed
tbe offence '"iM Several commuuicatioos on hand—Correspondents should generally endeavor to make themselves personally known.

TEXASMIANTA FE EXPEDITION— MEXHXK i*. Some time in Juna last, it may be remen. bored, an expedition was fitted out in Teias for the piirposf of commercial adventure to Santn Fe. The Texian Government anxious fo- the opening of a trade with that place, furnished the Expedition with a Military Escort. Several citzens of the United States attached themselves to tho expedition Some for health,—some for pleasure and curiosity,—others anxious to visit Santa Fee.
When an advanted party bad reached the neigborhood of Santa Fe, leaving the wag* one and artilery behind^ome distance four or five men Were sent on to anaoanco the purpose of the mission. These men were sei2ed« and two immediately shot. Capt.Lewis, and Mr. Kendal, ediior of the New-Orleans Picnyunc, were of the number, who first advanced to the town.
Ihe governor with a ltrge body of NeuMexicans went out to salute their visiters After assuring the Texian3 they should be well treated, if they would lay down their arms, dsc., the Governor caused the whole company to be immediately seized. They were tied and plundered,-—stripped of their hats, boots, and shoes,-—and in that condition were ordered to march under a strong escort to the city of Mexico, a distance of near two thousand miles. Tbey arc represented as suffering greatly from hunger, thirst and fatigue—many died, and others shot on the

*00, precise fate of these men, is yet un» known. But even if surviving, their conditrn inust be wretched indeed. They were expected to rcach tho Capitol ib December. Who are living, nnd who have fallen, is unknown. Mr. Kendal, if living is probably detained in Snnta Fe.
5
Whether Capt. Lewis acted from fear, or treachery, or was himself deecived, is not yet known.
Among the prisoners is a son of General, Combs, of Kentucky. Gen. Combs has written to Washington, and will, if he can obtain authority from Government, hasten to Mexico, to save his son and companions. One of Mr. Kendal's partners will also immediately leave New-Orleans for Mexico.
Santa Anna is now the Chief Executive, and from the latest intelligence had ordered a force of 12,000 men to be equipped for another invasion of Texas. We shall probably in a short time receive further particulars in. relation to ull these matters. The Expeditionto Santa Fe, had excited much solicitude ii» the minds of Americans from the first.

TERRE-HAUTE COTILLIONS.,. If a stranger had stepped into Mr. Stewart's on Thursday evening of last week, he miglrt have found himself in the midst of a britfia»t assembly, such as is sometimes seen in the large cities East of the mountains. We have been accustomed to these parties on both sides of the Alleghaneys, and can truly say, that those of Tem-Maute, will not suffer by a comparison with the best of them.
We were something later than usual at the last—but were soon compensated, by the excitement of alt around. The mazy dance— The gay laugh—The light courtesy—The smile of recognition—The cheerful hum of minds at ease, apart from all worldly cares, could not be otherwise tlun contageous ia its influences, in contributing to the mirth and good feeling of the occasion. Several cotillions on 1 lie floor—"All hands round I"— "Right and left to sidel"—"Ladies in the centre I"—" Forward first four!"—"Ladies grand chain!"—*4Swing corners!"—,4Grand right and left 1" &c. Stc. In this way we were whirled through the blaze of beauty, until an ordinary mind might have been excused for becoming almost bewildered.
The room was finely lit up—the ladies dresses very gay though within the limits of excellent taste Miss R. S. D. was very much admired—her person is rather slender, $ but the peculiar, fascinating air with which she displays her oharms of person is almost irresistible. Miss H. R. C. also attracted) much attention—Her person is of the middle size, but well proportioned—a polished, receding forehead—a nose somewhat Grecian' —ana the general contour of the face rather round and oval—and yet possessing a countenance vary animated. Her dancing is not equal to the former, in point of strict step and science—but far superior, in ease and graee.
Miss L. N. O. could be seen in another part of the room—never at a loss for a ready reply to the gallantries of. the gentlemen. Her person is rather stouter, than either of the otftere mentioned—but none the less attractive—Her nose is of the Roman order— Her eye a brilliant hazle. Quite a mischievous smile could be seen playing on her lip --and a most charming little foot, would exhibit itself, on the occasion of, "One Lady forward twice!" %,
Miss T. S. V.
WHG—biit
'inougli—These
comparisons are invidious where all waa beautiful. However we might have been delighted with tbe general display of single females, yet the fact cannot be concealed, neither is it disparaging to say, that the presence of several married fedie* con ributed equally to the grace of manner, and general tone of conviviality, pervading the company. But we are obliged to cut this chapter off, precioelv in the middle—it tqay some time be finishea.
Two or three ladies were absent, upotkwhom a fine will be imposed, in case of non attendance hereafter.
TEMPERANCE.—Strong movements are every where being made in favour of tbe temperance cause. The Lectures of reformed drunkards, are producing a powerful effect, far and wide. All classes of people, where I these lectures have been delivered, are emulating each other, in efforts to forward the cause. High and low—rich and poor—aristocrat and piebian, if the phrase be adnussibla, unite in this one levelling principle of1 destroying King Alcoholtii1
TKTINESSEX.—Tho Van Buron membelT of the Legislature of this State, by refusing to meet in convention, have succeeded in d|feating the election of two United States Senators. The Convention, unable to effect the purpose, for which* it tied Constitutionally convened, adjourned sine die on the 7th ult. Such is the condition of Tennessee.—The !.* Congress of the United States now in and two senatorial seats vacant.
