M Let it not be mentioned in Gath or knOWll in the streets of Asca- . .." that there is su'n a man in the Wet im niri nf the state.

I will close this matter by remarking r at the history of Incli na presents no character to the ooserrance of the people, more deserting of public honof and private esteem than Orn. Waller Taylor. His olitical reputation rose whh our political institutions, and from the moment heUrst came Into the territory , he haa betn a vigilant patriot and a faithful and correct public servant. That man who will now attempt to supplant him in the aervice and in the hearts of his fe!-lc-v citizens, should have extravagant demanda indeed, and they must be of long Standing and well founded, else they should be of no avail. As to any blame or censure cast upon luch a character os (ien. Waller Tay )ors, thro a newspaper auch as the Centtnel, or as to any extraordinary pretentions to greatness made through such a channel, the people are entirely clear of any parttcipatl Ml in their falsehood or imropriety. Faction, or servitude to faction, has no regard to the interest and wishes Of the people or of the state ; it Mvill advocate anv thing support any Tdnfr Land recommend any thing, that might be expec ted to suit itself ; but the people and the peoplea representatives ar not to be led astray. If, however, on this m itter of vital importance, any part or portion of our legislature act contrary to the sanguine hopes It eager wiahea of the people let them cease to boast of republic m honor and gratitude and never .nio pr tend t'nnt vir tue, intelligence k the sentiments of the people govern Mo ! If ien Vv all r Taylor can be opposed by any man in the state with success, let the citizens of the vest prepare to bear the soffj and hbotlngs of the enemies of bublic liberty. ONE OF THE PEOPLE.

THE WES'l kliN SUN. TCEXNES, 0r 24, 13 18." Another phort notice of Jenninp (Sentinel. The worthless echo of faction, in his last evening's sheet, transforms BrUtUSf our late correct and respectable correspondent, into no less a personage than 4 John Hull" probably the little defamer has felt something like hotni probing either his foul character or conscience, for his many misrepresentations j if so, he may rest assured, and the people alre ady know, they were net the horns of a Hull. It would appear from the zig zag course t .is old hypocrite pursues one moment censuring and Wheedling j the neat vilifying and denouncing ; that he is weak enough, or corrupt enough, to imagine the people will not see through Ins unprincipled designs he shall however, both see a:,d feel his intentional mistake in this particular. Yc have had occasion heretofore to remark that such a man cannot, by those who really know him, be believed in any case;this conviction being forced upon our minds by experience, we might dispense With correcting his falsehood as they appear. There is one in his paper of last evening too contemptably degrading to be at this time.penmtted to pass with impunity we allude to4l. is false declarations that our editorial remarks were written by Brutus. NtpVrutua can silent ly tolerate the abusive and scurrilous remarks made by that venal press, and think them too contempti' te to call him forth, we will not our course has bxiru such as we shall ever support our cause is the cause of the people against intriguing office holders, who have be come rich on the spoils of the public, and want yet to delude the people, and retain the means of becoming more so. Brutus may look with contempt and indignant silence, but we shall not. We remember since this M(Natnee first arrived in this place and we have a correspondent who not long since promised a aetfoii anecdote of his Conduct before he came here ; but no matter at this moment . The man who will not adhere to principles, veracity, or established matter of fact, may be an F.lias Hull, or no Hull in his own opinion ; but he should know what he is, and what he must be viewed to be, from his own showing, in the opinion of every respectable man. The character of M1 Name 6 and Jennlng's Ccntinel arc fixed no effect can we know be possibly produced by their defamation here j but we owe it to ourselves to declare, that Dr. Me Namee has published falsehood, where he attributes our editorial remarks to any other pen than our own. This is as usual with him insidious tricks and low abuse arc his Chief reliance ; he shall not at our cxpence induce in them. IKDIAN TREATY. To thtyolitenes of James Dttt esq. sebeetary to the commissioners appointed tprimMftathe Indians, we are in debteoiW the following highly leteres ting information! ; The n ego elation With the Indian tribes for the purchase of Indian lands in Indiana, lias eventuated in an extinguishment of indian title to about eight millions of acres, embracing the greater part of the good lands in Indiana. It is Understood that no tract of equal magnitude in the United .States affords so much of what is generally termed first rate land, nor is capabte of supporting a more dense population. The Wabash river is understood to be, in the genera!, the northern line of

This, when added to the Klckapoo purchase, formerly made by gen Harrison, will put the United Statca in possession of a large and fertile tract of country West and north of the Wabash. The treaty of fort Meigs, the ratification of Which was last session postponed on account of the tenure by which certain reservations were held, has been so altered aa to change the tenure of those reser vations and, upon the whole, every thing acked for lias been obtained. Demtborn Gazette.

It Will hardly be credited as

thou eh true, that at no more

pen iod than l7fl ."h there was but nnl

r nil in the Whole U. -States, which extended no further than from Portsmouth to Philadelphia and Baltimore ; that the mail vas carried in a portmanteau by a man on horseback (Messrs. Hyde and Adams being the Contractor! and carriers ,) that it passed from Boston to

mrnomy once a wcck, ana tnis was

then its most rapid progress ; and tflt niflfehcre are three thousand two hl dm d fifty post-omce establishments ; more than four hundred and sixty miil contractors, and the mails are carried a greater distance every Week than the circumferance of the globe. Mr L Pease, of Shrewsbury, who is now alive, was the first who contracted in i7S3, to carry the mail in stages, in New England ; and with the exception of the contract made the year before to carry that between New -York and Philadelphia! in the United -States. To the assiduity, enterprise, and perservanec of this gentleman, is the country indebted, for the great part of the accommodation now so justly appreciated. BOSTON, SEPTEMBER 22. The London papers abound in comments in terms of the severest censure on the conduct of our army in Florida particularly on the sentence and execution of Arbuthnottmd Ambristie : The general orders and other official papers relative to the progress of our arms in the Fioridas are generally republished by the London editors : There arc notices from almost all parts of Europe, of prevalence of remarkably hot weather in the month ot July. NATIONAL TURNPIKE York, fPenn.) September, w. On the 5th inst. a line of mailts$a arrived for the first time at Brownsville in Fayette County Fa. from the ( .ity of Washington, on their way to Wheeling in Virginia, The line will now run rcgularly three times a, week, from the cities of Baltimore and Washington. The Washington nnd Baltimore lines of starrcs will meet at H igerstown. There is nothing Wanting now but a pood road from the borough of York through Oettysburg to Hagerstown to connect a iinc of al ;es with the Philadelphia line HagerstOWn would in that event, become the great point of concentration where ata e lines would converge from the four cities of New-York, Philadelphia, Haiti more and Washington. The distance from Baltimot to Wheeling is about 27 miles. The stages run it in five days. There is now established form the city of Uaitimore, a complete, unintcnffpt'Tirl Stage communication to Louisville lien' tueky. These facts will, we presume, suggest some inducements to the managers of the Gettysburg Turnpike to commence and prosecuting the making of tin; road to Gettysburg is once completed, thechasm to be filled from hence to the great point of concentration will be so tnconsiderble, only 15 or 20 miles, that we may confidently calculate on its being fdlcd up before the lapse ofmrny years.
