To the Independent Voters of the Senatorial District, composed of the Counties of Vgo, Sullivan Clay

Elected to a seat in the Senate Indiana, without having resorted any of the expedients usually practi sed by candidates in our State Elections, my feelings impel me to declare the high sense I entertain the honor confered upon me in ing thus distinguished by youi d« liberate choice.

In a new country, where repre sentative districts are frequently large, where the people having emi grated from States differing in manners, in habits, and. their notions ot public measures hold diverse and contrary opinions, there is some propriety, even necessity of candi dates for highly respectable offices, estending their personal acquaintance, and making known their views upon subjects ot general concern but in small districts, where no difference of opinion exists in relation to what is, or is not, the true policy of a State, it has always appeared to me that men's elections should be left to depend entirely upon the character they may have formed among their fellow citizens that any attempt under such circumstances, to bias the choice of a representative, derogates trom the dignity which ought to characterize candidates, and trnds to vitiate the free exercise of the right of suffrage. Under the in fiuence of sentiments like these, and not as has in some parts of this sena torial district been said, from a want of regard for the people, or indiffer ence to the result of the canvass, I lelt it my duty to avoid as far as pos sible, all interference in a matter which properly belonged to them a* independent freemen, and to them alone.

I recognize in the circumstances 1' of your call upon me, obligations ot a very higJi and delicate nature, ti devote myself to the study of your nterests, and avail myself of this me diutn to assure you, that I stand un pledged to men or to parties, and of my dt tennination so to remain, bend ing only to measures which to me -hall have the appearance of promoting the good ot the whole.

Eng dated 12th June, frorA a liig' ly respectable house. a We have heard, with grpat rerret, of the disastrous result of t?^ spring shipments. All who did any

appear to hare suffered' alike, ust in proportion to the extent of f!»eir operations—-neither skill no iudgment. availing anv thing The rouse of Hutchinson Sf Co. who ship ped so largely, and who did so much njury to others by their forced sale*in Ameiica, have just stopped pay ment. They bought chiefly for their wn acceptances, and several of the •irinters are in from 3 to £5,000, airtl »ne house they say about £8,000. ••Business is extremely dull here, and the Americans are doing little or nothing. All appear to be dis heartened and afraid to touch any thing."

On the 22d of May last, [says the N Gazette] we gave an extract of a letter from our correspondent at Mazatlan, which mentioned the un successful attempt of a gang of pi rates headed by two Krenchmen, to capture the brig Lancaster, of this port, while she was Iviug in the harbor of San Bias. We have since been made acquainted with some farther particulars relative to this affair, which are worthy of being stated. It appears that the party, consisting of about twenty-five persons, boarded the vessel in th* night, and took the crew unawares, whom they secured in the forecastle. The cook, who was in the cabin at the time, hearing a noise on deck, came up, succeeded in jumping overboard un observed, and swam to a vessel which was lying near the brig, and gave the alarm* he pirates, after securing- the crew, proceeded to th cabin in search of the mat •, for the purpose no doubt, of killing him, but fortunately he was on shore. In the mean time, assistance arrived trom the vessel to which the cook had swam, and with the aid of the brig's crew, thev succeeded in killing lour und making prisoners of seven, the others made their escape to the shore, and two of thein were subsequently taken, and the whole were carried to Tepic for trial.

We have seen a letter from this place dated 1st May, which states That one of the men confessed the whole plot They were all to be tri ed in a few days, and there was lit

doubt that the whole would be executed, as the evidence against them was most positive.

Captain Jennings, commander ol the Lancaster, was anient at the line on business at Guadalaxara ot which the villains were aware, and knowing that she had a considerable sum in specie on board, they intend ed to have cut her out of the harbor and carry tier to Manilla. if*

On yesterday the Presidential Election Candidate, favorable to Mr rfdams addressed the people of this neighborhood in a short speech, and I can truly say, that never did I see more feeling expressed it was the opinion of those present that more than one li«l1 of the cornpany, and most of them were land-holders, were in fiivor of Mr Adams' re election— and by the time the election comes round no Uoubt three fourths will be. All that is wanted here is information properly diffused among the people Judging from the first con* menceineiit of the matter there can be but little doubt of the Elector succeeding in this District The cry was internal uprovemcd and the proti ct'on of national labor, and the national road -This road we will in all probability be cheated out of in trying to make a President
