U hen the result was annonnced, the friends
cf the measure evinced the most heartfelt
pleasure, nnd in the evening Indianapolis was brilliantly illuminated, and the event hailed hy the firing of cannon, the beating of drums, hiuI other demonstration of the importance
of the measure. To the people of Indiana thi3 is one of the mest important measures which has ever been derided in the slate. The faith of the state is irrevocably pledged for the final completion of the Wabash and Eiie canals, and the estimated cos.t of the whole work is upwards of one millioa seven hundred thousand dollars.

PozL-er of merchant f. An interesting anecdote is related in " Furnefs memoirs of his own times, which goes to show the power of merchants, in
in times of difficulty and danger. The destin ation of the celebrated Armada of philip of spain was not known in Englaud until late in the sea son, at w hich time the country whs totally unprepared to reit. w ith any hope of success, so formidable a military nnd naval armament. In the mids of ihe prevailing cmifusion and terror, a merchant in London communicated to the Government thai he probably had it in his prver to prevent the invasion for at least that year, lie stated that he had been informed that Phil, ip depended upon the bank of Venice for money to provision bis fleet that he had an extensive credit at the bank, sufficient to draw from it all its available funds; and that by prompt treasures be might succeed in effecting the object, before application was nmde by the King of Spain. The scheme was entirely successful. The merchant exhausted the bank, and Philip was compelled to delay the sailing of the expe dition till ihe following year. England was then in a condition to meet it, and happily averted the blow that was intended for her destruction. A friend in need Some days ago, a sing't lar circumstance took place in the parish of Al

is often but a thing of degree, and that mortal
love is not always stable as the hill. In a house no great distance from the parish church, a respectable young couple were to be joined in marriage. The friends met and so did the minister, when the ceremony commenced, and went so far that the reverend gentleman came to that part of it which renders it his duty to request the parties to "join hands1' lo this, however, the young lady would not consent. An uproar, of course, took place among the friends, the. astonished bridegroom swooned away in the arms of t neighbor, while the bride, at this critical moment, shape or shade whatever she wa. vanished from the presence. Py the aid of cordials, the bridegroom was soon restored to a kind of doubtful existence; and a spanking young sister of the ' faithless fair, ta
king pity on the forlorn lover, stepped forward the several heisj.
and shaking Donald by the hand, offered to
supply the vacancy occasioned by the singular
conduct of her sister. The generous offer was gladly accepted, the clergyman had the satis

It is nol long since that a grorer of our nc

M , a parsimonious wretch with a soul no big ger than a mite's eye, that he conld bear it no longer, and resolved ta compensate him in kind, lie therefore opened a bug of excellent nlmonda and a bos of delicious rasins, and placed them within the range of the captain's searching eye. Whenever the Cbptain was present, the groeei and his assistant were always busy in another part of the shop; the CRptnin boldly helped him self to the gooil things, and inoie than once, when he thought be was enpen eived.be lillei: his pockets also.
