FINCENNES, January 26. 1828.

I have repeatedly heard trum the Iriends of Andrevt Jackson in this, and in other i counties of the first Congressional Dis ! trict, desires cxpiessed that Samuel Ju j rfaA, Esq. of this place, should become a j

candidate for the next Congress; and I have been informed, that at the late convention at Indianapolis, all the Delegates present from the counties in this District expressed a similar desite. i am not acquainted particularly with that gentle man's views, but presume that upon the subject referred to, he will hold himself at the disposition ol his political friends. FIRE.Qu Saturday night last, the house of Mr. James Scott, about lour

and almost every article ot his household and kitchen furniture destroyed. A td on Sunday, about 2 o'clock, Judge Moote's shop was discovered to be on fire its early discovery, and the thudy exertions of a few citizens, saved the building from destruction. This is another warning we have no Engine, nor indeed any thing that could enable us successfully, to oppose a fire Shall vc remain so ? I hope the fiiends of the administration, in Daviess comity will consider as a sufficien excuse for not inserting their proceedings, (which I have receive d,) my insertion of the proceedings of the Ad ministration Convention at Indianapolis. The Post Office at Bruce villc, in this county, has been discontinued, and a new one established at Emison's Mill How far the convenience of the people has been consulted in this change. I cannot say it has, however, produced a degree of feeling in that neighborhood, which I do not believe its importance justifies. We copy the following correspondence from the Louisiana Adv Louisville Adv NF.W OULF.A3S, DKC. 17, 1827. Eev Antonio tic Sedilli : Reverend Fauiku The Sub-Corn mitlec d legated by us to solicit your cooperation in the ceremonies with which the grateful citizens wish to receive Gen. Andrew Jackson on his arrival in this city, for the purpose ol uniting in celebrating the festival of the 8th of January next, have reported to us the cordial reception which their mission experienced, !k your ardent devotion to the same cause in which we are united. You not only dc dared your assent to the request made of you for the use of the Cathedral Church of St. Louis, for all purposes calculated duly to honor this great anniversary, but you spontaneously invited this Committee

to direct whatever they might think proper on the occasion, and that you would be ready to com ly therewith as far as you Ycrv advanced age would permit. Eor this the committee most respectful ly return you their thanks; but in an especial manner do they consider them selves bound to testify t leir gratitude to you, for the otTcr you hue made to become the organ of the flock, under your charge, in giving utterance to those sen timents of gratitude and veneration which ate so justly the meed of the illustrious man who under Divine Providence protected our city from pillage a d its citizens from disgrace during the invasion ol 1814-15. The committee conceive that the feci ings which animvc every bosom capable of appi ccialing the blessings secured to the inhabitants of New Orleans, on that memorable occasion, by the prudence, the valor and -kill of General Andrew Jack son. could not be uttered with move propr"; tv by any speaker 'ban bvthe Hovetend Father Antonio Do Scdiila, who lor more han half a crnturv, has ministered t them in holy things, & whose voice for so long a space ol linv. lias been raised to the atr.hor of all good for his hlesdnvjs S protection of them, their wives and their daughters. Therefore, the committee will esteem it as an offering of the purest and of the most approptiatc kind, if you will deliver to the guest of Louisiana, on his entrance into the Cathedral, an expression of the love and gratitude which petitioners chet ish towards him, as the instrument of their deliverance in the hour of peril, and of thrir ptotection from rapine and insult We have the honor to be, Sir, with rcspech you obeoicnt servants,
