THE WABASH COURIER

CONA2U) nARRIS, Pobjiabera.

TERRE-HAUTE, SATURDAY JAN. 22.1842.

COURIER AGENTS.

Gcnilemco ivho have been herblofore appointed, and acting, as Agents for the W abash Courier, will of course, consider themselves ns still serving in that cjxjncily— Although the names of Agents have not been published since the present proprietors look possession of the Courier, still,all are cxpectcd, and authorized to act, as formerly, in obtaining subscriptions, receiving dues, &c. We will shortly publish the names of Agents in different sections of the country—In the mean time, any one who may find it inconvenient to serve, will please inform U3 to !fiat efiTccljat the same time recommending a suitable person in his placc.

LEGISLATIVE.

Nothing very material since our lust, on the nartof the Legislature—The bill to abolish public executions has .been negntived. The joint resolution for the

Appointment

Hank Agent to investigate the a flairs of the Bank, has occasioned much discussion and debate.

Indiana, and instructing our members of Congress to procure such reduction, was not ngreed to. The bill extending time to the borrowers of the surplus revenue, and reducing interest in certain cases to six per cent, has passed. A petition has been presented, a I k-g-jnrr that shooting matchcs have been decided ns'gambling.and praying they may be exempted from the penal code, &c. A bill to prevent the further sale, or hypothecation of State bonds, by any Commissioner or Agent, has been rejorted.

CONG HESS.

Strange to say, the debate oil the mere reference of tho Fiscal Hill, still continues in the Senate, and the matter not yet even sent to a committee. A memorial lias been presented by Mr. White, from the Legislature of' Indiana, asking for an appropriation for the continuancc of the National Road in our State. Petitions and memorials continue to be poured in, on tho subject of the bankrupt law—soine remonstrating against any interference with the law, or any attempt towards its repeal— others praying repeal, &c. A motion to instruct the Committee, to report a bill to repeal the bankrupt law, has been carried in the House, by a vote of 112 to 88.

We can find but Utile as yet in the proceedings of Congress, of a general, or even a special character,calculated much to interest, or instruct the general render. The whole matter, is probably as well condensed, as it can be, in an extract, which will he found in another column,from the National Intelligencer, headed, "The Fifth Week of the Session." To this we at present refer thc reader.

LAW ABOLISHING IMPRISONMENT FOI DFBT.— The bill abolishing imprisonment lor debt has become a law, and will be found at length in our columns of to-day.

No REPUDIATION.—A petition was presented in tho Pcnpsylvnnia House of Representatives, proposing repudiation of the State debt. Tho Petition was promptly referred to a committee, with instructions by a unanimous vote, lo report adverse to it.

8ANTA FE EXPEDITION. The report of tho capture of the Santa Fo Expedition seems to htive produced much excitement throughout tho country—At Galveston many ore anxious to gel up an Expedition, immediately to march to Mexico for the purpose of rescuing their citizens, or avenging their death.

In the Legislature of Kentucky,a preamble and resolutions have been introduced, instructing their Senators and Representatives in Congress, lo ur^e measures for the prompt, vigorous and efficient means to restore to liberty, such citizens of tjre United Stales as may be involved in the fsrtcof the Expedition. And further resolving, that Kentucky will sustain the General Government in the most cnergetic action ooahis subject.

Onto LEGISLATURE.—Editors in Ohio are complaining, that their Legislature has been in session four weeks", and really done nothing for the relief, or benefit of tho people.

Col. R. M. Johnson, either is, or is to be, nominated for the Presidency, by the Demo* erotic members of the Kentucky Legislature.

Justice Wiley of New York, has been tried and convicted, on an indictment, for the part lie took some timo ago. in relation to the money stolen from the Frederick County (Md.) !Bank.

Wilson Shannon, was nominated for Governor of Ohio, by the Locofoco Convention, which assembled at Columbus on the 8th inst.

TEXAS.

Texas papers Jo the 28th and 30 ult haw been received at New Orleans from Galveston and Austin, despatches were received from London at the last mentioned place on the 18th ult. from Gen. Hamilton, dated Nov. 8, transmitting the information that tho contract lor the loan with Messrs. Lagitts & Co. had been cancelled, those gentlemen having found lliemsclves unable to comply with the conditions of the contract. The general opinion is, that this failure will be more beneficial than injurious. The report of the capture of .the Santo Fe expedition, produced very great excitement throughout the country and the Tcxans are loud in their threats of vengeance against the Mexicans. Emigrants contiue to come in rapidly. A retrenchment in salaries is about to take effect from the President down to the Members of congress, the latter receiving W per day as compensation for their services. The Sugar and Wheat crops bid te be very fine. *f he steamboat Albert Gallatin, plying between Galveston and Houston, was totally destroyed on the 21st. ult. by the bursting of her larboard boiler, which killed four individuals, and wounded ton others.—Baltimore

of a

is still insisted by some mem

bers, that so much of the public dobl, as •was created by the snle of State bonds, for which the consideration has wholly, or in part failed, shall be repudiated. The

uuthorising the issue of $5 scrip, to redeem 850, &c. is still under debate. A bill providing for the reception of the distribution share of the proceeds of the Land, under the distribution law of Congress, is under consideration. The joint resolution, on the subject of reducing the price of the public lands in

BANK FAILURES AND MOBS AT CINCINNATI. Several Banks have closed their d&ors in Cincinnati—and Mobs and Riots have been the consequence. From the following lolier, directed to the Louisville Journal, somg par--ticulnrs may be gathered.

To the Editors of the Louisville Journal: CINCINNATI, January 12, 184'i.

My letter yesierday closed with the attack on the Miami Exporting Company. This bank closed on the previous aftern xn, fhe minutes before the usual lime,having redeemed all the paper presented, ar.d was exhausted. In the evening it made nti assignment.

The next morning, the notes of the Miami, and of the Bank of Cincinnati having been refused in market, the holders began to collect at the doors of their offices, and when the Cincinnati opr-ned, a regular run commenced. The

officers

tinuc card

soon saw that they could notcon-

2 to pay. and posted up on the door a plawith the words This Uank has suspended for twenty days,'" and attempted to close the doors. This was resisted by the crowd, which thronged in and the officers of the bank retirrd, leaving the whole concern in the hands of the mob, which then commenced

#the

bill

work of distruciion, throwing

unter, books, desks, papers, and money into the street. Ilavini finished the Cincinnati Bank the mob assailed the Miami*, which had not opened, and served it in the same manner. The vault was broken open, und a large amount of bills taken out, together with some specie. Several of the men, having poclastcd some thousands of the paper, were iirrested as they were making off.

During all this time, the officeof John Bates, the Exchange Bank, was crowded with the holders of that paper, which was promptly redeemed. A number of persons, however, appeared with West Union Bank paper, fa bank which failed some time since, hut with which Hates had been connected, and to whose paper he had given currencv,) and demanded with threats its redemption. This *fras uniformly refused, except by one of the clerks, who for a short period, from intimidation, redeemed some of it.

Whilst these things were going on, several attempts were made to stop them. S. P. Chase, Esq., the owner of the property, assisted by the sheriff and two or three others, pl iccd themselves between the mob and one of the banks, but were compelled, after encountering with great firmness the violence of the assailants, to withdraw. The next effort was made by Charles Fox, Esq., who called on the orderly citizens to support him, and proceeded to the very midst of the rioters to read the riot act. He was immediately pulled down and struck at from around him, hut covered by Wm. M. Corry, Esq., and Mr. Buckingham*, at much hazard, until borne back from the crowd.

The sheriff then fode through the throng, commanding them lo disperse. There were five thousand of them altogether, but perhaps not more than one hundred active operators, lie was answered with threats, which he treated with defiance.

The next attempt to suppress the disorder was with military force. A party of ten members of the Citizens' Guards, in uniform, headed by Capt..Mitchell, advanqpd with great gallantry with bayonets lixed, and swept the crowd from the pavement on Third street and on Main, and formed in front of the places of attack on Main. The mob retreated into the street, and commenced an assault on the troops and a considerable number of the Fire Guard, which had followed to sustain them with the long stives of that corps, (which is designed for protection in time of file The mob hurled tho fragments of the desks und counters, besides brickbats and stones, at the troops, and were answered with the discharge of one or two muskets. The troops and fire guards then were commanded to retire, and were followed by the mob with missiles, which were again answered with the discharge of a few muskets. One man of the mob had his leg broken,and two or three otherwise wounded by the fire, and several'were knocked down by the staves of the Fire Guard. Tne troops were considerably bruised.

The conflict between the troops an I the mob, in front of Bates's office, compelled the officers of that concern to retire,as the flying missiles, dashing through their windows, endangered their safety. The mob then commenced a regular destruction of everything within and, having finished, next proceeded to destroy the office of Lougee & Co., on the opposite side, Northwest corner of Third and Main. They were, however, unable to force his iron-sate.

The force and fury of tho rioters were now spent, and they gradually dispersed, until about four o'clock two of the last of them were arrested whilst opening the chest of Bates and order wns restored.

Nothing very impotunt from abroad.

Indiana Legislature.

IN SENATE.

FiriSr

DOLLAR SCRIP.

Mr. Mount from the committee to whom the bill from the House providing for an issue of $5 Treasury notes, to lake the place of the $50's now in circulation, reported it back, with an amendment, providing fur the allowance of the interest on the $50's

Mr. Mount advocated the justice and propriety of the amendment. Mr. Stevenson rejoined. Mr. Berry was in favor of theameudment. He thought, in making the exchange, we should allow tho holdes ihe interest due at the time, in addition to the amount called for by their face. Otherwise, he could not see what inducement there was for holders of the •50's lo bring them in.

Mr. Chamberlain offered lo amend the amendment as follows: "Provided that no $5 treasury note or notes provided for in this act shall be paid in redemption of #50 treasury notes, till the person or persons having such $50's, shall make oath as to the precise amount at which he burchased or came into possession of such $50 note or notes and such amount shall be paid as the price at which all such notes shall be redeemed."

Mr. Chamberlain advocated the propriety, of his amendment. He said the persons who were now the principal holders of our §50 Treasury notes, were miserable brokers or

shavers,'who

combined together to depreciate

thennas much as possible* in the money market, with the view of speculating at'.be expense of the honest holder. Such persons should

not

be permitted to take advantage of

their own wrong nor should we adopt a course of legislation calculated to gratify their cupidity at the expense of the best interest of the State.

Mr. West took the same view of the subject. Mr. Mount replied with much warmth. Hesaid his amendment, instead of proceeding from unworthy motives, was founded upon the "eternal and immutable principles of juslice" of which t'ic Senator fro Marion was so fond of speaking. He was totally opposed to the agrarian spirit displayed upon this floor by hononble Senators—this eternal warfare upon the wealth of the country, honestly and justly acquired. We owe for the interest upon these notes as well as the principal, and there can be no distinction made between them, if we regard the" eternal first principles of justice." fle knew numerous instances, within* his own knowledge, where these $50 notes were in the hands of merchants who took them for their face, and who, having honestly come by them, should not be defrauded of the value put upon them by the State, and for which its faith is pledged.

Mr. Chamberlain responded, and, among other things, said he had no doubt the Senator from Birmingham had an accurate knowledge of the situation of these Treasury notes. He presumed this would be generally acknowledged, if we could only get a peep into the Senators' money drawers, and see the piles of them which he has there accumulated.

Mr. Mount denied that he had ever speculated in Treasusy notes and said that he had not more than enough of them to pay his next year's taxes.

Mr. Moffalt opposed the amendment of the Senator from Elkhart. Mr. Bright preferred the bill of the House. The holders of the 50's were not compelled, unless they choose, to exchange the $50's. But, if they pecferred to exchange $50's for notes of a larger denomination on account of their being more suited to general circulation, he did not see why brokers, or the friends of brokers, should complain. There is and can be no compulsion in the matter. The law is conditional. It provides that holders may or may not exchange them, if they choose.

Mr. Collins thought there was a misunderstanding of the provisions of the bill. In stead of being left optional with holders, it provides for a notice being given by the Treasurer, of his readiness to redeem the $50 Treasury nores with $5's and if the holders do not present them for redemption within 60 days, their interest will then cease, from that date. That the holders of the $50 dollar notes will make money by exchanging them for $5's, must be evident from the present relative value of these denominations of notes in the money market. There will be two objects gained by adopting this measure—we will furnish an additional mediumof exchange to the people in their business transactions, and, at tho same time, save them from incresased debt and onerous taxation by the reduction of interest. That this is the view taken by practical men of its effects, I am, said Mr. C., well convinced. He then read a letter from an intelligent merchant of Louisville (a large holder of scrip,) in which he rejoiced at the prospects of an issue of $5's to lake the place of the $50's when withdrawn from circulation.

The Senate then adjourned.

EMIGRANTS BY WHOLESALE.—Col. Oakley, of Tremont, in the county of Tazewell, after spending the summer in Europe, reached St. Louis on his way home last week, and is probably by this time in Tremont. In St. Louis he informed a gentleman, with whom we conversed, that he had received assurances of the emigration to Illinois, within the ensuing year, of about 50,000 souls from England alone. Their removul is under the direction of an organized assciation, whose arrangements are nearly all completed, so that the main fact here stated may be relied on. We saw a paragraph somewhat to this effect in circulation during the fall, but supposedit lobe exaggerated by the addition of one cipher at least, if not two. Mr. Oakley says the disposition in Germany to emigrate to the United States is equally general but Missouri there seems to be the chief point of attraction.—Peoria (111.) Register.

It is said that the direct trade from Rochester to Canada during the season just closed, amounted to $650,000, all of which, except about $7,000 wtrth of machinery, was in various kinds of produce, one-third of the whole amount bo-ng in flour.

New York and Erie Railroad.— The way they make it.—A week or two since, three hundred piles were driven by a single machine in one day. This makes forty-five and a-haif rods of road prepared for the superstructure, or at the rate of a mile in seven days by machine.—N. Y. Express.

OBITUARY.

Departed this life, on Thursday, tho»6th of this month, Mrs. ELIZABETH HUGHES, widow of JOHN HUGHES,at her residence in Bloomington, Indiana.

The deceased was a native of Baltimore, Maryland, but having lost her husband she emigrated to Wellsburg, in the western part of Virginia, about the year 1832, nnd in the summer of

?37

she removed from thence to

Bloomington, where she has since lived until her death. In the decease of this amiable woman society has lost a worthy member, and literature an unceasing votary. Though she made no pretensions to fame or notoriety, vet she possessed a mind of superior capacity, which was cultivated and exjvtnded by good and practical knowledge. Retiring in her disposition, she sought not to make a display of her talents, but contented herself with enjoying the fruits of her own labor, and the happiness arising from an highly cultivated mind imparting to her children lessons of instruction, and instilling into their minds a love of literature congenial with her own. She was not only an ornament in the social circle, but a brilliant star in the literary. Had it been her desire to aspire to eminence in the literary world, but few could have shone with more brilliancy. But she has gone to a higher region, where the transitory fame of this world cannot add to her felicity. She was a member of the EdgeworthaJian Society a literary institution, composed of females, and ibe vacuum occasioned by her death will not soon .be filled. She was, also, long a member of the Unitarian Church, and although not an enthusiast, yet she manifested by tier dignified and exemplary conduct, the spirit of a Christian—aod of one whose thoughts were on eternity and the joys in waiting for the "just made perfect.** She has left two sons and two daughters, together with a large number of relatives to lament her loss, to all of wbo»n we would say, ns a consolation, that die has only left them for a while, that ere long they will be called away to join her in the worW of spirit* above, there to be with bcr through the ever-rolling ages of eternity
