The joint committee appointed on the subject of arranging the business to be acted on, and of fixing a day of adjournment, made a report, in part, to both Houses, yesterday. 1 he re port fixes the day of adjournment, for the iiGth inst. A proposition was made in the House, by Mr. IViartin, to amend, by striking out the 2fith, and inserting the 19th, and this question was pending when the discussion was arrested by the expiration of the hour allotted to motions and resolutions. The subject

presence of his fellow prisoners. This was the Chief who killed and scalped Gugnier, and who was aided in the blootly adventure by the miserable locking JVckaw or the Sun, who scalped, at the same time, an infant, anu mangled it in a savage style. He is the same, who, together with his companion in guilt, voluntarily surrendered himself, last Summer, at the Portage of the Fox and Ouisconsin rivers, and who was after wards delivered over by Major Whistler, to whom he gave himsell up, to general Atkinson, who conveyed him and others to Prarie du Chien, to await the penalties of the iavv. From these, however, lied Bird has escaped.

This was an extraordinary man. In form, and appearance he had lew equals, white or red and in the graces of action, of face, and ol spirit, he was not surpassed. Ilia character, too, had, during his whole life, and up to the period of his bloody adventure, been marked by all that was kind, and friendly, and faithful. His hospitality to the Whites and to Indiaus was notorious—and his means were ample He was rich in traps and spears, in wampum, and all that constitutes the wealth of the hunter. He was highly distinguished and beloved in alt the regions of the Northwest. But all this distinction was swallowed up and lost in one fell resolveone act of guilt. But he rose, if not to innocence and lile, yet high in the general admiration and sympathy, in the voluntary surrctider which he made ol him»eU,anil in the manner of the act. No individual act was ever more imposing than was that act of self devotion. His white dress, of beautiful deer skin, fitting

PROPOSALS

For publishing, at Madison, Indiana

A Rfc-LIOIOUS PERIODICAL PAPER ..TO

BE ENTITLED

THE INDIANA

lieiigious Intelligencer

THE object of the contemplated paper is the same with that of other religious newspapers of the present day vir. to furnish those, who feel an interest in the advancement of the Redeemer^ Kingdom, with such intelligence as they desire. As the necessity of this publication may be doubted by some, on account of the number of papers of this kind already in existence, it is deemed important distinctly to state, that it is not the design or wish of the persons concerned in the paper now proposed, that itshould interfere with the circulation of those already existing Their sole object is to place, the desired intelligence within the reach of persons who would otherwise remain destitute of it. The fact is notorious that

many

be obtaiued

head,

professed

christians, who ought to prefer Jerusalem above their chief joy," permit themselves to remain in utter ignorance of the glorious things which God is bow doing for his church and the reason they assign for this, is that want of means to furnish themselves with religious newspapers. And owing to the difficulties and embarrasments necessarily attending persons settling in a new country, this excuse may be urged by many perhaps, with much propriety. The design of the contemplated paper is to obviate, as far as possible, this objection. It will be published every two weeks, on a half sheet, so that it may be afforded mi terms suited to the circum stances ol those who consider themselves unable to take more expensive papers. It is hoped that enough interesting matter may be found in its pages amply to lepay those who may peruse them, and enough to evcite 8f cherish in their hearts a deep interest lor the prosperity of Zion.
