By the above returns, it appears Katliff Boon is elected by a majority of 92 vote over Thomas II. Blakk. the present mem ber. With the exception of the return from Carroll, the statement has been received directly from each county, and that, by way of Terre-HaUtc. Ve have, however, a second report from Carroll, which gives to Mr. Boon, 7, and col. Blake 72 votes, which, should it prove correct, would reduce Mr Boon's majority to 29. The Presidential question no doubt opera ted Upon this election and the friends of the administration, as far as my acquaintance extends, presented an undivided phalanx, in favor of Mr. B-ake the same cannot be said of the friends of Jackson, Sc it will not be denied, that hundreds of them voted for Mr. Blake yet a majority of this dictrict, acting upon the declaration of Mr. Blake, in one o'. his speeches, that 41 if we aie led astray,0 "the people who sent us here must apply the rod or correction, and restore us to private life, until we are restored to ourselves." The colonel's advice certainly had its effect. Statement of the votes given for Governor, at the election, in 1828.

The above exhibits the returns as far as they have been received the list will be continued, as returns come in. I have received but one or two additional returns for Lieutenant Governor, or lor, or against a convention I shall give the list en tire so soon as I receive it. The Imhnapolis Gazette, of the 14th, says " We have now in our possession verbal statements of the votes from the principal part of the counties in this state, which leave but little doubt that Mr. Ray will be re-elected governor by a large majority. It appears to be doubtful whether Stapp or Pepper is elected Lieutenant Governor." The Vandalia paper states that 44 General Duncan is re-elected by a large majority " The same paper says 41 In Missouri, Mr Pettis, the Jackson candidate, is elected to Congress, over Mr. Bates." In Louisiana, Gurlcy has been re elected and White in the place of Livingston, and Oerton,in the place of Brent. We understand that the commissioners of the Wabash and Miami canal, held their second meeting at fort Wayne, on the 24th ot last month, and after having made the neces sary preparations for commencing the work, -adjourned until the first of September. So long an adjournment became necessary, , in order to procure from New-York, the necessity instruments. Two of the commissioners proceeded immediately to the Ohio canal line, for the pur pose of engaging, if possible, a practical en

gineers in Trhlch they have, nc understand, been successful. From the spirited and determined manner they have entered upon their duties, but little doubt can now be entertained ot their being able to lay before the next legislature, such information as will enable that body to act decisively. The enterprise has our best wishes. Ia. Jour, Galena, Friday, July 25, 1828. The miners who were digging on Indian lands, have recently been oidcred to desist, and we understand they have complied The citizens of this place received yesterday by Mr. Kinzie, a message from Gov Cass, one of the Commissioners appointed by Government to hold a treaty with the Winnebagoes, and several other tribes ol Indians for certain lands, Sec. informing us that the treaty will be postponed until next year, in consequence of there not being time nor op portuniiy to provide the necessary supplies for so many Indians to subsist on during the time of the treaty. The Governor informs Us also, that a council will beheld at Green Bay next month, wi h the principal chiefs of all the tribes con cerned, and solicits from the citizens of this

place, such communications, as may be deemed proper subjects for the consideration

ot the council. We have some cause to regret that the treaty is to be postponed, but presume such steps will betaken, at the council, as will dissipate from the inhabitants, ail fears of any farther Indian hostilities, and enable the pres cut occupants of mining grounds, to hold in perfect peace their valuable possessions. The packet ship York, captain DeCot, arrived ycstei day from Liverpool, having sailed on the night of the 24th of June. We are furnished with London papers to the 23d, inclusive. Ail vires from Constantinople to the 1st of June, had reached London. They state in confident terms that ihepoitc was determined to abide by the treaty of the 6th July, and had rcqucs:ed the presence ol the British and Pi pnrli iuT,lm.crflfr tr nctrnlnfp Willi inrrt

to Greece on the basis of that treaty According to letters fiom the Morca means were adoj ed to improve and secure a national revenue, and it was expected that Ibrahim and the Egyptians who had long been inactive, would at length be compelled to re embark for ' l xanriria. Russia aid Turkey The Prussian State Gazette ol the 9th, repot 's that one of the suburbs of Braihiiow was t kcn by s'oim on

St Pctersburgh, June 4 The Ft.iets burgh Join nal nl" this da!e, contains a bulletin from the camp befotc Biailow, which gives an account of the arrival o! his majesty in the camp, and of the pi occedins till the 25th of May. On the 24'h the emperor ascended a hill at the out-posts, in order to judge of the effect of the mm tars placed in a battery on the left of the position. Soo after a bodv of Turks, preceded by a while flag, appeared ; it was a flag of truce from the pacha, who came to return thanks for his majesty's gen. crosity in releasing the prisoners. On dismissing this flag of truce, the emperor com missioned him to tell the pacha that the long est time granted him to capitulate was till three o'clock the following afternoon, after which the garrison could expect no terms. A battery of twenty-four guns having been erectcd in the night on the right of the army, opened its fi e at day break. His majesty immediately went to see its e(T cts, when the cnemv observing from the number of officers assembled on the spot that the emperor wrv. probably there, began to fire twentv-four pounders at the hill on which h s majesty stood: several of the balls fell at the foot of the hill His majesty, finding that the opcr at ion of the siege proceeded as rapidly as possible, left the camp, and arrived on t lie 26th at Bender, where he met the cmpress On the 27th ult a naval action took place between the Russian and Turks, before Ann po. in which the Turkish flotilla was destroy ed with the loss of twelve hundred men ar d six standards and Anapo had been bombardfourteen days. rn THK WKbTKIlN SUN To 7'UR Pvrlic In a free country, the will of the majority should govern and every sincere republican, and every hor.est citi zen, will willingly yield submission to the voice of the people, announced at the babot box. But there arc some individuals so regardless of their duty.to their country, so head strong and obstinate, or so determined in their attempts to dictate to the people that they never suhmit It has been my fortune, to receive at two successive elections, majorities of the votes of mv fellow citizens During the past ses sion, I endeavored so to conduct myself, as would sanction t';c confidence of my friends, and merit the approbation of the public Such, again, shall be my object. But, it is also mv fortune, to have, with ma nv good men the bitter, unrelenting enmity of one, whose evil passions never rest. I am honored bv the hatred of the Editor of the Wabash Telegraph. Whether this is, be-

cause he is conscious ihaftsTiiivTi.w dictate; or, whether he dreads that at jon t future time, 1 may possibly be in the path oi hit ambition, is entirety immaterial.' His course is evident. Immediately after the August election, 1827, in his paper, he cr deuvored to produce an impression that I was elected by some improper management, and that because the people ot ot Kih.x toun ty would not submit to his dictation, that they had been deceived into giving me -432 ot their voles. Before the last election, he issued his c'rd crs to the people, and published cha-gts aguinst me in hi paper. 1 p.cparctt an answer, but was advised by my friends not tu notice him, nor his stuff oome weeks after, and immediately before the election, he repeated hi charges, and I was induced to believe he was pieparmg hand bills against mc I then oublished an ans.verto hi charge,, in the Western Sim. The election took place, ! received 520 votes and again his n.ui mui ings at the wili of the people is repeated. He is enraged that I did not engage in a puper war with i,im

before the election, and that his hand bill project was blasted He is ant-iv that his

dictation was not submitted to, ana his orders

obejed. And obove all, his fears are excited, that I may continue to enjoy the confidence o? m fellow citizens. This F.ditur ma) abuse me as he pleases; at home, I shall ticat him as 1 thir k he meats. I r i his public capacity 1 ihalj endeavor to act as if he was a stranger to me 1 shall endeavor to loiiet his constant, unte nutting execution I shall sink the indivi dual in the Scnatoi and act lot the good ol hiscmintiy. It his protested patriotism, is not base hypnerasy if his pietendcd zeal lot the country, is mt the paltry im.bition, and pitiful thirst Un efiice of a poliiicr.l aspirant," he willimi at my example and while I am a Representative ol the pcopsc, will not attempt to depiivc mc of that landing and in nucr.ee So necessary to enab e mo to serve b' nubde.
