Mr. Van Biirrii Candidate for llie I'midciicy. On the 2&1 of Inst IIIOIItli, the dimi fleeted Barn•^turner wing of the New York Democracy, licit! a •Convention nt I'tica, at which lime anil place, and 1II the cour»c of their proceeding*, the Hon. MARTIN VAN BUREN kd put in nomination for the Presidency, and later news give* the assurmice that Mr. V. D. II.IH accepted, and is now on 'the track in the presidential race.

Wc think this move on the part of the Demo•crnts who wont stand ("nan no way it can lie fixed, tit

I General Taylor's election entirely beyond a iptesliuu—beyond a doubt. Il was sure enough, IM we considered it, before now, it i* doubly anmired to him. although wo presume, Mr. Van B. will not carry a single State, and yet we expect liim to beat (Jans, and |ieihaps drive him from the track, especially ii a ticket is got up Tor him ill the 4ifTerent States.

This very unpleasant state of affairs with our opponent*, seem* to have been brought nliout in thi* wise New Voik had two set* of delegates «t the Baltimore Convention—on old Hunker and

Barnburner delegation. Tho (Convention undertook to deride upon the qualifications of delegates, and artnnlly admitted a Mr. Commander, from South Carolina, with nine votes, while New York with her thirty-si* vote* was cast out, or which wan the »amo thing—she ditl not vole, because tho Convention fulled to nay which set of delegates should be entitled to seats—or they required pledges of the Barnburner* more than from other delegates, to which lliev reftised lo submit— toenco the nomination of Mr.

without any

vote from New York, which would not have been! tho case hail tho Barnburners voted. The Barnburner delegation nt Baltimore'required nn t/nconditional admission oj, rejection—tho 'onveillinn failed to como up to the scratch to do either, nnd tho Barnburner* will attend now to their own ellW* in their own way.

It is known too, that there i* no love between tho Van Bui on ami (Jnss school*, as the litter i* charged with defeating the former in 1844, by the adoption of the two-third's rlile in the Conventinn, atul we presume now, that Mr. Van Buren and hi* friend*, think that Cass can not claim any courtesy front them. John Van Buren, eldest son of Martin, and one of tho most talented men in New York, even superior to his father, may lo considered the head of this late movement and he seems to be uncompromising in hi* hostility. He lets no opportunity pas* for skinning (Jen. Ca*s, and hi* withering satire is now the theme of the New York press. It is stated privately, that evcry mode of conciliation has been ofl'ereJ him— every means exerted to silence hi* powerful battery, but without avail, lie scans to be above ami beyond their influence*.

A* matters now stand, Ocn. Taylor mu«t be elected President alinnot without a special show of opposition, a* the fighting will be between Van Buren and ('ass, while "Old /.ick" will walk »fl" with all hearts and tho votes of tho PsorLK.

(CT Tho first roolution of tho Baltimore Convention reads as follows: Resolved* That the American democracy place their Iruxl in the inirllinenco. the patriotism, and the discriminating justice of the American people,

This seems to be a i-atdinnl principle now, as it was in 1810, with the "democracy," but when "old Tip" slew them at the ballot box. they lost sight of this "patriotism and justice*' whtch they thought the people possessed, and charged that they "were drunk—carried away by log cabins, coonskin*. and hard eider.'' 80, when Tayl»r defeat* their nominee, some new slander will be ready for stump orators and editors, in which tbe pKort-K will be charged with being (trunk again, and that their "intelligence, patriotism and discriminating justice,*' have all gone to the d—I. Those who now hypocritically profess so much confidence in "the people," as in 1840, wl.en they were beaten, will again, under the same circumstances, be the first to ply their ribald abuse, and what was disgracefully established then, will become the history of '43. Reader, remember if Taylor is elected, if you «*r hear one ol these ••people loving'' souls say any tiling complimentary to the justice, patriotism or iutelligeac* of tbe

people.

O* Governor Owsley has appointed Ex-Gov-ernor Metealf I'nired Stales Senator, to fill the v«. cancy occasioned by the re*ign*tJon of Mr. Cmtcuden.

This is the "old *1one-h*mmer" in Kenturky politics, and he has often made the implement he uses so well. »st««»h"»ent among his opponents- His present station, we understand. first offered to Mi. CUflf.

The Ohio Libert? Convention have nomilikted John P.' Hale for President, snd Mr. Rfnc, of thai Su(e, lor Vice. In New Yor*, Geirit Smith and Charles K. Facte, tu-e been

Vigo Cfttttfilnfc Institute. Professor Baird baa presented ua VILLI his FITS' Catalogue of this Institution from IRTLFCH we see that it a very flourishing condition for iu age.

The mule department of the -Crfleprte classes Consists of thirty-three stuirtita—oT the Pflepara tory, toenty. Of the female department, the collegiate classes consists of twenty-four— Preparatory, twelve making a' total of 89 scholars sinee the lOth of January tail. These srttdmts are from Vigo and the adjoining counties generally— some hoWevefJ are from Ohio, Illinois ami Tennessee, and several from the distant countiea of this

State. The male course of study eritbraoes Arithmetic, Grammar, Geography, Reading, Orlbography Pennmanship, Elocution, Rhetoric, Composition, Criticism, Logic, Al-jebra, Geometry, Navigation, Astronomy, Chemistry, Philosophy, Mechanics. Optics, Geology, Physiology, together with all the Classics and .Moral Science. German and French are also taught to those who wish to learn these languages.

In the female branches every thing is taught that will make a learned and accomplished lady. The terms of the school are as follows:

Collegiate class, per session, $16,00 Preparatory, do 13,00 German, do 7,00 Piano Music, do 20,00 The college bu'lding is very large, handsomely situated on high ground, and tli* two department* kept separate. It affords an extensive campus, and its airy situation and structure is well calculated to preserve health and elasticity of spirit.

The government of the school is mild but firm, and no sectarianism is exerted with the students. The library contains 600 volumes of well-select-ed works, which will be annually increased. All the necessary apparatus fur illustrating and explaining the sciences taught, will soon be added.

Ouch is the Vigo Collegiate Institute—a school which offers every facility which could be desired by our citizens, for the proper education of their children or wsrds, and we hope they may avail themselves of the earliest opportunity to foster and cherish the school. We hear from parents who have already put their children there, that their progress has been unexampled more than they bad hoped for or could have reasonably expccled.— Having six diflerent teachers, all thoroughly skilled iu their allotted branches, it cannot be otherwise than thnt instiuction will be speedily and permanently imparted to the scholar.

This Catalogue shows that Prof. Baird will spare no pains to bring this school properly before the public, and excepting that over which he had no control, the pamphlet is very creditable to the Principal. Wo hope the friends of good schools will uke pains to eucourago those already commenced, and established them hereafter in every nook and corner of the State*.

GKX. TATI.OII.—The Wabash Express says 'There seems to boa general enthusiasm for Gen., Taylor throughout the east and north-east.''— Wonder why the Editor don't spenk of the "general enthusiasm'' that exists iu the west and northwest and the south. Why, he knows there is none of it yet there is just about as much "General enthusiasm for Gen. Taylor throughout" the west and south ns there is in the "east and northoast," and (lint's precious little and it is rather decreasing than increasing. The people can't be humbimged with (Jen. Taylor as they were with (Jen. Harrison in 1840 nor will tho Fort Harrison mass meeting on (lie 6th of September, about which the editor of the Express talk* so much, be as larce a authoring of DRUNKEN WHIGS and PROSTITUTE FEMALES as was the great Tippecanoe mass meeting in 1840. Wonder how many barrels of hard cider will be drank at tho Fort Harrison mass meeting? And how many Bloodhound *kitis will be purchaxed from Culm as swaddling cloth* lor the conscicnfious whig* to wrap their denuded carcases ill on that occasion! Perhaps the Editor of the Express enn tell.— Rockville Sentinel.

In the abovo we are asked a very grave question, nnd we are sorry that wo cannot answer it. If the writer of the article, however, will attend the Fort Harrinon Taylor meeting, we will try and prevent him from being pitched into the river until be can make an estimate of the number of naked Whigs on tlte ground, and then wo will publish the result of his scitnfific labors.

But how do the millions of gentlemen nnd Indies who wcro out at the political meetings of 1840, like to hear themselves characterized as "drunken Whigs nnd prostitute females!" What will the grey-headed fathers of patriotic families think of the rascals who thus stigmatise their son* and daughters And how do such wholesale charges from locofoco presses agree with the first resolution of the Baltimore Convention, in which that hypocritical meeting protesscs to

have confidence tn the justice, •ntell.gr.ice nnd pa-, ,hrre

triotum of the people In 1810, the people, en

masse, turned out to do honor to Old Tip, as they will in 1848, for Old Zachi but then as now, especially after the election,the men will be called "drunkards,'" snd their wives, sisters and daughters published to the world as "prosliluto females!" (Jo on Mr. Brown, Mr. Sentinel, and Mr, Wright you will do your opponents more good than we c*n, and wc will lake pleasure in spreading your malicious slang before the Whigs.

The Army Return!tip. Our lato southern exchange* rejHirt various arrivals al our southern ports, from Vera Crui, of vessel* laden with the army from Mexico. They

are embarking for home as fast as they can get to

lies and friends. Wc notice that Capt. I.awler's company of IIInois mounted volunteers, al Tampico, in which is Lieut. W. Scott Clark, formerly of this place, are under orders to march for the Brazos, the.e being no transportation for hordes al Tampico.

Thus at the end of two year* wc are arriving at ihe close of Mr. Polk's "breakfast spell" war— it would now be too sad to name its cost iu blood or treasure.

JT The Whigs are abused for running, as is charged, a mere military man for the Presidency. The other party do the same tiling. Their candidate 'has the title without any of the military honors belonging foi Vice,they have fine General, and a* candidate* before their convention, (hey had two more Generals—Worth and Quitman! In ihe next race we presume they will pot up General Pillowkyndera!

I^Vtcr fi'oW 'SI* MABCCS, Merfco, ApiS! 24, 1848. T)Httr Patent* —We ate stationed at a place called San Msrcus Hacienda, thirty-five miles from Puebla, on the Vera Cm* toad. We elpect to remain here about three weeks, and Then start oo out march for Vera Cioz, on onr road home. So it nothing torna up more than we know of now, I think we will be at home by the Fourih of July at furthest, teeeived a letter from you en the 10th of April, dated 2d January. It gave me a great deal of aatiafaclion to hear, you were all well.

White at Poeltla we epent ear time mote pleasantly than at any other plate in Mexico. We did about o« we pleased, except when on duty, and most of us spent our money about as fart a» we en* it. The Indiana Regiment, by their good rondoct, became much endeared to the cititenSs— We associated with them the same as we would with our neichbors at home. We formed intimate acqnaintancea with a great meny of them. Some of the hoy* paid their addresses to tbe girls, and were received very politely. But for myself I was always too bashful to make the attempt.-*-Notwithstar.dinfc, many of the Caatilian race of Mexicans are quite handsome. I got acquainted with a young man who kept a store in Puebla, who took a great liking to me. Every time he met me in the street, he would call me by name, and shake hands yvith me, and whenever I had occasion to pass his store, he would call me in, and make me stajr an hour or two with him.— I have every rea*oii to believe that his friendship was sincere, for it is characteristic of the Mexicans to be very friendly when they are friendly at all.

The Mexicans thoueht more of the Indiana troops than of any others in the city. They said we were gentlemen, and "mucha buena umbres," —that is, very good men. When our regiment started awav from Puebla, many of the Mexicans shook'band* with us, and shed tears to see us start, and a considerable number of them went with us outside of the city.

A few weeeks lefore we left Puelda, Lieutenant Mullen several other persons and myself, took a ride in a four horse Mexican carriage to tho ancient city of Cholula, a distance of about eight miles from Puebla. After about an hour's ride (one of the most pleasant I ever had) wo arrived at the great Temple, which is just outside of the city. We dismounted and began to ascend the great pile, up stone steps that bad been made by the Spaniards, for the purpose of going up to a Church they had built on the top. After a long and tedious climb, we arrived at the Church.— We found after going up that the Pyramid was much higher than we hod any idea of. The top is about sixty vards broad, which leaves plenty of room for a church and ward. The view from this place is one of the finest I ever beheld. The surrounding country presents itself in its greatest grandeur. Iu this hich country, the air is pure and clear, and there being no tall timber to obstruct the view, one can see from the Temple almost every field, Chutch, town and village in the whole Valley of Puebla. This mighty pile is entirely built of stone, sunburnt brick and mortar. It is astonishino how so rude a people as we have supposed the Aztecs to have been, could have had skill and patience sufficient to rear up such a mighty structure. After our curiosity was satisfied, we went down and drove into the Town.— The Mexicans seeing us coming, gathered into the street so thick that we could not get through with Ihe carriage, so we dismounted, and wo then got along tolerably well for we wcro all well armed, and they did not like to crowd, us loo close.

We left the carriage in the care of our three Mexican drivers, went and took something to eat and drink, returned to the carriage and found nothing molested. We then drove back to Puebla without being attacked by robbers. There was, however, another party of eight or ten who went to Cholula on the afternoon of the same day, and for liko purpose of curiosity, and on their return wero allocked by robbers, and two of them were badly wounded, and one. of them lost a gold watch worth one hundred dollars, nnd a considerable amount of money. They, however, killed two of the robber* in the fight, and then returned to Puebla without further molestation.

While we were at Puebla, there was One thing that transpired, which at first had the appearance of being productive ef very serious consrqtiences but finally ended ludicrously enough. There were three Mexicans condemned by a Court Marthl to bo hung, in the main Plaza, who the Mexicans threatened to rescue by forco from the gallows to prevent which the troops in the city were formed inn hollow square around the gallows.— The artillery was placed in the streets. A double lino of infantry was formed from tho prison door to the Plaza. The cavalry and potrollers were kept busily marching up and down the streets, so as to prevent, if possible, an outbreak by the Mexicaus. Tho prisoners wcro led from the prison door to the Plazn, between the two lines of infantry, attended by four priests and after it few ceremonies performed by the Priests, (he convicts wero hung. There were about twenty-five tlioU' sand persons collected to witness the tragedy.— As soon as tho convicts swung off, there wns a death-like silenco in the whole Plaza. The si' lence was soon broken by some Mexicans in the fmlhest part of the Plaza crying out, "down with the d—d ynnkees down with them!" We all thoueht this was the sienal to commence the row, for which wo suspected the Mexicans had been preparing. We were ordered ''rendy!'' Tho cavnlry and artillery came thundering down the streets liken hurricane. This together with the rnttling of making ready fire-arms, struck a panic in the Mexican*, who began to get out of the way a* fast ns possible. There were several thousnnd person* collected on the platform that surrounds ihe Cathedral, and when they started to run from

Mexico in Trouble Afrnln. The news from Mexico indicates that Ibry will soon have a war of castes, in which the Hispano American race are to be exterminated. Pa redes and Pena Pen* have influential parties, and are both oppoeed to Herrors'* government, which perhaps may not be able to stand up against them, A general rising of tbe Indiana ia apprehended, and to add to all, it ia stated that England has demanded ths immediate payment of the debts doe her citnens, and thrrstena to blockade (heir ports in case of refusal. These are evil daya for Mexico indeed.

HORRIBLE.—On the 18th ult., in Carroll co. Ind., the wife of Elijah Timmons arose from her bed before day light, got an axe and murdered her husband while he was sleeping! She had been bordering on insanity from the loss of two children, and was told the day previous that if she did not behave herself better she would be sent to the Lunatic Asylum. Her husband lived three days after the event, and she states that the Evil Spirit urged her to the deed.

It is a little singular that they want to slay Wniter who has nothing but democratic (we don't mean locofoco) blood in his veins, and who would upon no emergency, suffer political feeling to interfere with the discharge of an official duly we suppose, however, he too, must go the to wall.

We will wager, however, every cent that "the head and front of the Parke county democracy" owes us—two dollars, more or less, that Walter C. Danaldaon will lay out one of Ihe democratic nominees, "Mind if he don't," as Major Semans

says.

KGW York all Right*

We have always predicted, notwithstanding the mortification felt b? a few individuals with the result of the Philadelphia Convention, that after a little time the Whigs of this city would cordially unite in the nomination and heartily set to work to secure, as tbev easily can, (be eleciionof Gen. Taylor to ihe Presidency. It is wilh pleasure, therefore, that we put on record the following official transcript of the proceedings of a meeting of the General Committee, held last evening.—N. Y. Com. Adv. June 20.

IN DEMOCRATIC WHIG GEN. COMMITTEE Broadway House, June 19, 1848 The following resolution was adopted on ayes and noes, 47 in tbe aiiirmali?e, and in Ihe negative:

Resolved, That the meeting to respond to the nominations made at Philadelphia be held on Tuesday, the 27th instant.

The following resolution was adopted urtanivmtsly: Whereas, By resolutions passed on the first day of February last, this commillee, in declaring Henry Clay to be their first choice as the Whig candidate for President, at the same time expressed, as was just and right, their detetmination to abide bj the decision of the National Convention

And, Wiereas, In the National Con?ention recently con?pned at Philadelphia, wherein the ctty of New York was duly represented, ^achary Taylor, of Louisiana, was nominated as the Whig candidate for President. and Millard Fillmnre, of New York, as the Whig candidate for Vice President.

Therefore, be it resolved, That this general committee, surrendering their preference 10 the decision/of a majority of the assembled delegates of the Whig party of the United States, will now cordially unite in the support of the Whig ticket, and give their best efforts towards its triumphant election, believing the nominee for President (o be a Whig and that, if elected, he will be ihe exponent of Whig principles.

UTICA, Thursday, June 25.

The substance of Mr. Van Buren's letter was to the following effect: He announced his determination, previously expressed in 1844, to retire from political life, to be unchanged, He declined a nomination. He reviewed the proceedings of the Baltimore Convention. He declares that all the Barnburners did Was perfectly right. He exorts them to persevere and to make aseparatenomination. His language was emphatic and filled wilh emotion, yet strong and dignified.—He recommends firmness. His letter throughout is decided and emphatic, and in favor of Free Terrilory principles.

He quoted eleven acts of Congress in support of his argument, embracing the administrations of Washington, Jefferson, Monroe, the elder Adams, Madison, Jackson, and his own. He declared that he could not vote for Gen. Cass or Taylor. That the extension of slavery was a moral curse. His letter was received with enthusiasm.

MASSACRE IS HATTI.—Capt. Bailey, of beique Fancbita, at Boston, from Mansanilla, 6th inst., reports that on the day previous, a bloody battle bad been fought about 20 miles from Jactnel, Hsyti, between the negroes and mulattocs. The negroes bad mur-) dered about 100 men, women and children, and drunk their blood. 1

We hope an able man will be selected to that post, (democratic elector in place of tbe retired Mr. Sheerest,) one who will expose tbe traitorooa •entimenta of Mexican McGaugbey, tbe whig elector, from every political stand under his charge., —People's Friend.

The Prince de Joinville returned in disguise to his native country, and baa been arrested in Paris.

The late publications in the Presse were undoubtedly for the purpose of creating sympathy, preparatory to his presenting himself as an applicant for the rights of a private citizen.

Prince Louie Napoleon, notwithstanding the/pposilion of the Government, has obtained the returns to the Assembly, and the belief is, that the Executive wilt not dare to molest him.

Paris waa tranquil, but crowds were continually congregating indifferent parts of the city. These, however, were promptly dispersed by the National Guarda.

The resignation of Lamariine and Ledru Rollin, which waa hinted at in previous advices, is now opeuly talked of.

Suspicions are expressed that Lamsftine was privy to the movement of the 15th May, and lie is publicly charged by Cauasiderre, ex-prefect of Police, with having supplied arms to (ihe leader of the revolutionista.) Fears are entertained that he may supplant Lamartine, as he has been elected to fill one of the vacancies from Paris.

The French Constitution will be democratic, and the Republic not to be divided. A declaration of rights, admits gratuitous education, employment and assistance.

ITALY.

The news from this portion of Europe is important. Peschiere has surrendered, and is now in (he hands of Charles Albert.

A battle was fought at Gorto between 30,000 Austrians and 15.000 Piedmontese. The former were completely routed, and pursued by cavalry who were lying in every direction.

The Repeal Association and Orange Confederation have fraternized under the title ol the "Irish League," to agitate Constitutional 'Repeal.

The Confederation issued a manifesto signed by the leaders, the terms of which are no less in defiance of the law than the effusions of Mitchell's. Il remains to be seen what proceedings the Government will enter against those who following in the fooiBteps of Mitchell, have openly, and fearlessly declared their rights.

rtf^ublicly replying to the above, Dr. Brayr takes the occasion to say to his numerous correspondents in all the southern anil western Stales, who write similar letters, that his Indian Queen Vegetable Su|jar Coated Pills, claim none of that protection suppostd to arise from th» hitmburge ry of a -'PATENT RIGHT.'' His Pills are not a patented medicine he never asked fur apiUenf 10 protect their manufacture or sale. If any one were to make or sell a counterfeit Pill with his name, thft public would not be stow to find out the imposition. rhe want of virtue in such a Pill would at ontie fexpoSe it as the offspring of BASE FKAUD.
