This is only right and proper as connected with our duties as good whigs. A largo committee WHS some time since appointed in T" Vigo county for the purpose of fixing upon gjp. some better system of action in our party.

We presume it will bo the purpose of this ^committee to assemble some timo towards the ^close of the present autumn, in

Mhut a vacancy in tho U. S. Senate can occur only by death or resignation. pTIw Constitu* "lion being silent as to disability of any kind in renpeet to Senators. Others say that a per3jj mnnent disqualification to discharge the duties of the office creates a vacancy, notwithstanding the silence of the Constitution. How far Lunacy ought to bo considered a disqualification may bo nice question—as cases ^•constantly occur of entire restoration to a rational standard, of minds for a long time strongly aberrated. At all events, it is very possible tho Constitution may bo deficient in not making clcarer provisions in case of vacancies in the U. S. Senate. *2

On our first page will bo found a vory ex•ceilcnt article from the Jwlicma Journal in relation to a better organization of the whig continually being made almost annually here .party.

We consider, it indispensable lhat something should be dole in the way of organization, in order the better to rally our forces with proper effect on future •occasions.

A largo and formal Stale Convention properly constituted, with the vetjr authority delegated to them, have long fined made the selection, and appointed delegates to a National Convention. It would be tmprupar now to attempt any interference with this selection, unless indeed some new state of circumstances would make a change necessary. Of this we are not aware at the present time. Sixty delegates we presume are as good "as twelve. It is not likely all can attend—-and it can make but little difierenco as to the number, for of course, some mode will be adopted by the Convention, giving to each State only a cerj^h) number of votes, as recommended at the fleeting of Whig members of Congress, held at Washington in February last.

The Indiana Telegraph states that the farmers offifty-eighl counties in Indiana, can transport their productions from their own doors by water, in flat-boats to maiket.

THE BANK PARTY!

This & the name givco tn the Whigs Wthe present

&bd*SalfkiHg, by, lheir pfeaeat professions "we should believe Mat ail the Ranks, that have disgraced oar couniry/or the last thirteen yearly were the creefniW: of the Whig party that the Whigs, and the WKijw aloue, brought ihem toll) existeno.. and nre ilwrrfors aceouutable for ail the {Sanmge resulting from that ei» bteitce.

The tN*fory trf thcwjnUitdtwm. however, shows a diserenf state of aSainl show different *cccs«F)i*HiI-ity-jUM ptacrs the ranwneibitiry of the evils resulting from a large majority and to fact from nearly all the rotten aod broken 8a£k* on the Democratic ptrty.

In the bright and painty days of this party, when they were in full power, under the administrations of Andrew Jaekson and Martin Van Buren, more Banks rlian were chartered, and more Bank capital created. in any period in the history of our Government, of the saute deration. tn I8XH there were only 32 Banks chartered, ia t&e United States, with the capital of $8,000.000 only. During this period, oar country prospered in every department—-our n^ricultural, commercial and manufacturing interests were promoted and built np. ami we bad a currency, regulated and furnished hy the Uniletl' States Bank, that was jastly the pride and hoist of every true American. But at this period the Dcmocmtic party came fully into power, and a different policy was adopted and pursued, which involved .the country in all tne evils of a worth Jew ami irredeemableeerfency. The United Statts Bank was. by this party, dtttrored and utterly broken down, in order that thsfe mieHl -introduce what they then termed lite better cirrency—the State or Pet Bank svstem.

These Banks, uoder the express authority «f the Great Cbieftf DeChocraey, "increased their circulation so as to fill the vacum created by the withdrawal of the notes of the Bank of the UnitedStates," and flooded the country with a paper currenev, that would at the time of its issue have been irredeemable, hsd not the Government depositee been at the command and under those Banks- Mtney became abundant—the system was approved by the Government, and we were called upon, in the most exnltinu terms, to "*ee bow the experiment" worked. The State Bank fever, that had completely taken hold of the Chief of Democracy, was contspioions. and spread throughout tha whole rank and file of the party and. durinir the admitiiatra* tions of Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren. these Bank-hating Democrats, there were 367 Banks chart* ered, with an increaae of capital of $213,000,000.

During one sinele year of Jackson's administration, upwards of 300 Banks were chartered and it was then considered the purest Democracy to provide plenty of State Banks, in order to save the "dear people" from the jaw* of that "Destructive Monster,11 the United States Bank.

The following statement is from good authority.and we presume will be found substantially correct, and shows thnt of the whole number of Banks chartered since 1630. a vast majority wero chartered by the Dem* ocratic party:

Maine, New Hampshire* Mamchusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont. Connecticut, A New York, .v Pensrlvnnia,.! Ne*Jersey, Matyland, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Miraiwippi, Alabama. Tennessee, Illinois, Michigan, CWiio, Ark&nsns. feomli Carolina, Kentucky, ••.-4/ Iadiana,

OCT A writer in the Richmond Whig makes a ealat^Mion whiclt runs this wise Van Buren will be tho candidate of the locofoco parly in 1644, aud will receive the electoral voios of New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Virginia, S. Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi-, Arkansas^ Missouri, Illinois and Michigan—containing ninety-eight electoral votes. Mr. Clay will be the whig candidate, and will receive the electoral votes of Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio-~-giving one hundred and forty-six votes leaving Maine, Massachusetts, R. Island and Connecticut, thirty-one electoral votes to be devided between the two. Agreeable to this ciphering, Mr. Clay will be elected by a majority of forty-eight. But the probabilities are that Mr. Clay, will get the votes of Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island, and Mr. Van Buren the voto of Maine. The ivriter whoso prophecy is abundantly borne out from the signs of tho times, further remarks, that if Mr. Clay lives, no matter who may be the locofoco candidate, or whether they have one or a dftfen, he will certainly be elected by a majority of between fifty and a hundred, in tho electoral college. Some of our friends apprehend danger from Mr. Webster but even if~h6 should take the field on his own hook, and should receive the votes of all the the New England States, still he Could not defeat Mr. Clay—Quiney Whig.

GKAT Bamrjr.—Thorlow Weed in one of his letters from England saiys: "I infer from the coarse of debates in Parliament, and from the newipepeis, that the power of the Tory Ministry Is upon the wane. The Whig Peers and press evidently f«rl stronger, sttd some old rats who retreated ia the flushofSir Robert Peel^ triumph, now begin to put their beads cautiously oat of their hole*. If, as 1 apprehend, the faculties of the Duke of Wellington an failing him, not only the lory administration, bat the British empire most be prepared for a tremendous shock. With nim crumbles one of the main pillars that upholds this gigantic sttneture. Ho has been a tower of streagth to England, not wily in the field, but in the cabinet."
