The question is repeatedly asked us ft Why the magistrates of t!:is township lave not been commissioned ? To which question I am unable to give a direct reply I know the returns of the election were forwarded by mail on the 26th July last, and should have reached Indianapolis long since; whether the Governor is engaged in forming another 11 amphictyonic league," in order that he may have the satisfaction of admiring its grandeur, or cxhiliratcd" by the hope of seeing our township freed from such useless and troublesome incumbrances as Justices of the Peace, I cannot tell ; therefore, to those interested, I can only say, " wait patiently" for it ha been said by men ol o ther days, and I believe has never been contradicted, that 44 heavy bodies move slowly, and 14 great men arc never in a hurry" save it he m " escaping from fleas," or 14 before an election.' LA TE S T FR OM E UR 0 P R. I new york, August 11. The Editors of the Gazette are indebted to a commercial friend for the loan of some Antwerp papers to the 27th of Jut e inclusive, received by the brig Hnrmllo.s. Their contents possess considerable interest, and translations are annexed. It will no doubt be gratifying to the numerous friends of General LaEayettc in this country, to learn that he has been elected a member of the Chamber of Deputies. The Paris Ltoilc of the 23d says 11 Vc announced several days since, that a treaty was about to be signed by the five great Po we re to save Gi core VVc have since had to deplore t!ie occurrences before Athens. We arc happy m having it in our power thia day to announce that decisive orders, in conformity to the preceding arrar.remcms, have been riven bv Russia, France, and Enghnd, to lc-uime their respective fleets tnd separate the combatants. This step, though tardv, 1 may still, it is hoped, he in time to save 1 them. ' The Observer ot 1 nestc, ot June 14. " On Friday, the 10th, the Turkish hr.tcf2S sail, was seen passing be tween Capo d'Oro and Andres. If it had gone towards the Gulf of Athens, it would have spread great consternation both on sea and la:ul, and would have struck a memorable blow ; but instead of that it suddenly took the direction of buda, in the Island ot Candia." The village of Gousselin, near Grenoble, was totally destroyed on the night of the 14th of June by a water spout, which descended from the neighbouring mountains. Nearly all the inhabitants were killed, and sixty dead bodies had been taken from the ruins. It is said that General Karaskaki, a few moments before his death, being surrounded by General Church, Lord Cochrane, and several other Greek chiefs, recom mended his soldiers to their protection, to whom he gave all his property, Amounting to fifteen thousand Tuikish piastres. As to my son,' said he, I leave him my arms, that the blood with which they are stained may renew his coin age." I Ik se were his last words. His body was to be transported to Napoli, their to bo interred with the same runup as those of Mateo Bozuris and Lord Bvron. There have arrived at Quebec the present season, to July 3:uh, fifteen thousand sixty-five settlers. This is about double the number of emir-rants w!h arrived in Canada during the same pci'nnl of last year.

A change of ministry has taken place in Portugal, which is considered favorable to tho Liberals. It seems to have originated from nearly the same cause which produced the recent changes in Great IJrit:vi a dislike cf n badim minister

by his colleagues. General Saldcnha is

to continue minister of war, and the Marquis Paltnclla, (at present ambassador to this country) to be secretary of state for the home department. Of the rest of the ministers, little or nothing is known. The last Paris papers received at London, stated that Mr. Stratford Canning, the English ambassador, had left Constantinople, but the account was not corrobora ted by the advices received at Lloyus, and was not believed. A Russia fleet was on the way from the Baltic to the Mediterranean, and was ex pected to touch at Portsmouth. It was rumored that this fleet, and the French squadron fitting out at Toulon, were to join an English squadron in the Mcditcrranean, me wnoie to proceed to me am 01 the Greeks, Seeing h believing Yesterday great numbers of our citizens were gratified at seeing me oie.un virisi .win, crccico in this town, upon the origmil plan ol Dr. John A.

There can be no doubt of its entire suc cess. R. I. American. We understand that orders have been forwarded to gen. Atkinson, (who was, at our last advices, at Prairie du Chien, wiih a respectable force,) to chastise the Win nebagoes lor the recent murders and out rages committed by them ; that peace will not be made with them until the mur dcrcrs shall be given up for trial and pu nhhment, and the territory between Prairie du Chicnand Rock river shall be gi .

If the Wiuncbagoes should not be punished lor the outrages they have eoi oinmittcd, they would atttibute our forbec they would atttibute our forbear atice to cowardice, and fresh and aggrava ted outrages would inevitably lollow.
