WSSTSZUtf SUN. VINCKNNCS, MAV 15. 1880

The Western Sun is this day presented to its readers upon an enlarged sheet, and will contain as much matter probably, as any other paper in the state. In order thus to present it, the editor has incurred considerable additional expense and will have additional wetkiy labor t'i perform ; but, as no' additional charge xvill be made for the Sun. to subscribers, he hopes that none will grumble at it ; if, however, any should be so unreasonable a3 to do so, there is a fair, an easy, an honorable way to remedy it ; need I name it by paying what they now owe me, 5c being careful to owe mc no more I must, in conclusion, be permitted to 3ayi that my subscription list is not yet quite full, a few additional names of ho nest and punctual men vvill be accepted To such of my subscribers as have adhe red to me through good, and through evil report, and by their friendship and punctuality, have enabled me tf us far to overcome every opposition, I tender my acknowledgements and my best wishes. To such of my friends und subscribers as are in arrears, that a settlement is neces oai y; and. to such of my friends who are not now subscribers, to lose no time in becoming 3-. I will refer the reader to an important decision of Judg.- Parke, of the U S. D'strict court lor the state of Indiana, triade at the November term. '-829. on the question of title to land sold lor Taxes. It i3 given in the preceding page. I have been authorised to say, that John Moore, is a candidate tor Asso ciate Judge, at the Auqust election I ha been authorised to say, that Ri guard P.

The elections in Virginia for members of the state legislature under the old con stitution, and for the adoption of the new one, have just taken place. The counties east of the Blue Ridge, have given overwhelming majorities in lavor of its adoption; .vhilst a few of those on the west, return majorities against it. Ftom the general result, however, so far as 11 is ascertained, the new constitution will be received by a very large majority. The Legislature of Pennsylvania have passed a resolution, declaring that the President of the United States and the Secretary of the Navy deserve the thanks of the friends of good order and civil liberty, for the promptness with which the names of those officers of the U. States Navy, who were concerned in the duel Dear Philadelphia which resulted in the death of a Mr, Miller, have been erased from the Register of the Navy. March of Mind A mode of impelling coaches by condensed air, instead of steam, is now talked of in London It is oaid to be equally efficient and less dangerous, and to have the advantage of less weight than steam apparatus. The editor of the United States Ga2ette, thus takes a knave to task. "Some rascal (we were disposed to nee a harsher epithet, but forbear,) has Btolcn from Messrs Thornburn & Sons, JvJew York, a small plant of the Cammelia Japonica, which cost the owners five guineas in London. The thief ought to be confined for life in the centre of a thorn buih, and fed upon dragons root, boiled in spirits of turpentine A fellow who would steal a valuable flower from a garden, opened only to please the pub lie, would rob his father of his grey hairs to make strings to a fiddle bow He ougnt to be but we have done pretty well already, and even better, ner baps, than we should have done but for certain private gnels.1 i It is said that the Jews are moving in considerable numbers from various parts of Europe and Asia, towards Jerusalem, in the expectation that the period has ar ived when the long expected Messiah Trill appear in that city. The Fx, Sioux, and Winnebago Indians have been invited, by Gen. Street, Indian Agent, to hold a Council at Prai ria du Chien, on the 28th inst Capt Watoer, Sub-Agent, left Dubuque's Mines a few days since, with a large number of Foxes for the Prairie. The object of the Council is to produce a reconciliation between those tribes Galena Advertiser. The Mildgeville Statesman, of the 13th inst. say: We are informed bv a correspondent from Lawrenceville, Gwinnett county, under date of the 7th inst., that a company of U. States troops passed through Decatur, Dekalb coun ty a few days since, to put off the old diggers from the Indian territory Report says, "resistance is threatened." This is as it shou!d be.

It was said that several American ships had been freighted to convey the troops to Havana at glO a head. The civil disabilities of the Jews are likely soon to terminate, and those of 0 the Quakers will probably soon follow. The march of liberal feeling in England is rapid, and after having seen within the space of two years, the Dissenters and Catholics emancipated, it is natural that we should look for the extension ot similar privileges to the Jews We have been favored with the following extract of a letter, received by a merchant of this place, dated. new ohlrans, April 24.

Kentucky Gazette A federal paper at Providence, thus consoles itself for the shameful defeat of the Coalitionist: " The popularity of Governor Fenner in his own town, is well tested by the recent vote. Out of five hundred and fifty-four votes given by the freemen of Providence, but ninety were for James Fenner, while 404 were for Dr Messer. This result alone fully recempenses us for the part we have taken in opposing there-election of Governor Fenner, and it shews the high estimation in which our worthy fellow ci'izen, Asa Messer, is held by the people of Providence It the country insist that James Fe;ner shall be Governor, wc shall submit to it as patiently as any man, who has no more patience than w have FOKEIGN NJSWs. new york, April 24. LATEST FRO W COLOMBIA By the brig Montilla, Capt. Beeckman, we have received Bogoto papers to the 1 4th Mai ch inclusive. Fiomthe paper ol the latest date we translate the following: nczuela We learn from an authentic source that the much talked of contiibution of Caracas, amounts to but little upwardi of g 1 2.O00, although to make it more productive, they adopted the horrible precaution of keeping the contribut ors shut up until 1 1 o'clock at night, without permitting them to take their meals. A similar method was adopted in obtaining signatures to the Instrument which they addressed to the Liberator, announcing the separation. By the Courier from the North, information has just been received, that the whole garmon which was sent from Venezuela to Merida has risen against its officers, and that the soldiers have returned to their homes, because they were unwilling to serve against the Liberator By this means the Province of Medina is left without troops. The towns on the other side of the l achira, have relusea to sign the aetas against the government, and have en-j ireaieu vjcii. vj Lieary ro rase tnem under the protection of the Colombian arms. Gen. Pinango, governor of Merida, writes, that the sentiment of Venezuela is in favor of a Confederation, and that General Sucre will very probacy oe elected President of that State. An intelligent gentleman who came passenger in the Montilla, informs us (in accordance with the above) that ac cording to the general understanding in Carthagena, the Venezuelans had sigoi fied to the Commissioners sent from Bo gota, that while they no longer consider . i r" f-vt - . i . themselves a part ot the Colombian peo pie, and intended to maintain a separate ! government, they were nevertheless wil j ling to unite, ior purposes ot mutual j benefit, on the principles of a Confederation. The paper of Feb 28th, contains a decree establishing a Cousulado of Commercc in Carthagena, whose jurisdiction shall embrace the Departments of Boya ca, Cudinamarca, Cauca, Magdatena and the Isthmus. Congress having urgently requested J. M. del Castillo, President of the Council of Ministers, to assist in its deliberations, and the two offices being incompatible with each other, the Sccreta ry of Foreign Relations, (ien D rningo Caicedo, has been intvi'!' d lih ucces ecr, and is r.or at th1? head ;! afi'airs,

Congress has passed resolutions de elating all the Acts celebrated in the dif ferent Provinces for any other object than of rt presenting to that body what form of government is considered best adapted to Colombia, null, unlawful and void, contrary to good order and the fundamental law, as well as to the solemn Treaties which bind the nation to those coun tries which have acknowledged its independence. The ne-jj Constitution.'--This impor tant instrument, the outlines of which we published some weeks since, was still under discussion in the Constituent Congress. The Gaceta de Colombia of March 14th. in an article onlhepecu liar situation of the Republic, says: "Weiest our strongest hopes upon the excellence ol the Constitution which is about to be given us. Our lepresen tativcs deserve much credit lor the Jove to the public cause which has distinguished their labors, and the lively in terest which they nave taken in consulting tne wishes and necessities of the nation The project of a Constitution which has been under discussion in Congress, is not only purely republican, and based upon liberty in its broadest extent, and not only has it aimed to correct the defects of the former one, but it is a union of federalism and centralism, which, while i secures a better administration ol local interests, pieservea that oneness in the management of national concerns, which experience has taught

us is necessary and advantageous to the Republic. According to resent intelligence from Colombia, Bolivar was marching upon Venezuela, to force her back to her allegiance: and Paez had issued a proclamation o! which the subjoined extract is a passage: "Should an invad-1 by misfortune obtain a victory over you, lemctnber what I now -ay, that he snail not enjoy the fruits of his fatal triumph, without pas sing over my dead body. Fot 1 am re solved not to survive in ignominy. Vtnezulians! I must inform you with frankness of the state ol your political existence It is in danger if you do not prove stronger than intrigue, calumny and the power ot ambition The Convention assembled at Bogota by order of General Bolivar, treating our wishes with contempt, has declared the lundamental law of our union indestructible, charging the same General Bolivar to preserve the integrity of the tenitory. He has voluntarily accepted the odious mission, after having resigned the supreme command, and is marching with an i my fo subdue the indomitable spirit ot Venezuela He draws his sword directly against the bosom of the mother who gave him being, and pretends to conceal the venom of revenge which is rankling in his bosom, under the veil of obedience and submission to the nation ai wili. He will employ cunning to surprise and seduce you Should they be inefficacious, he will, more uselessly, employ force And who can censure us for defending ourselves? The aggres sors will exterminate to establish themselves; we, to preserve ourselves. The civilized world will stamp upon his forehead the crime of shedding the blood which is to flow, and acknowledge the justice of our firmness, and even of our fury in the combat From the New York Gazette April 21. FROM MEXICO. By the ship Viiginia, Capt. ColUr.s, we have received a file of Vera Cruz papers (El Censor) to the 20th ult. inclu sive, which contain account from Mex ico City to the 1 4th . That country continued to be agitated by political divisions, 'he resuit of which time alone will developc Ve annex a summary of the principal articles contained in these pa pers. In the Chamber of Deputies on the 12th, the report of the special committee on the integrity ol the territory ol the Republic, was agreed to, as far as the 2th article. El Censor, ot the 1 8th, contains a long account iromthe "pacific city ofTristla, of the disgracelul proceedings of four or five of the turbulent Pomsetuno partisan leaders." Accounts from Jalizco state that the Junta ot Guadalajara published, on the 4th ot Maich, the decree of the General Congress of the 1 1th ot Feb;uary. declaring as unconstitutional, the acts of that Legislature, by wi.ich the elections in Guada:ajana, Zapopan, and Zayma, were annulled In coustqueuce ol this event, the Constutionai Congress ot Jalico pas sed a decree, temporarily depriving the Vice Governor ot the Staie ol exercisine the duties ot Governor, and appointing u. Jose Maria Higar to act m his stead l hey also dissolved the Legislature. The Registro Official f Mexico, of the 13th ult. dci ics the staicments in some of the paLei s there, that passports had j been granted tor the return ot the exiied Spaniatds It observes that the promulgator do not believe it themselves, and have only given currency to the report, in order that it may be circulated in th Spilth.

mand of Col. D Francisco Victoria,

whom fie was permitted to retain for the security of his person, and who w as also paid by Government. His object was to collect forces there, but up to the latest accounts, the 8th,very few had join ed him. The troops employed to keep down the disturbances in the south had been placed under the command of Gen. Bravo and Sr. Bcidtjo, and were stationed at Acapulio The Registro states that Srs Moritcs de Oca, Codalles, and Mongoy, had entered Huetamo, and proceeded towards Morella with 2000 men ; Sr. Salgado had left Morella with 1 500, and the priest Carbajal had collected together 1000 in Ario. The millitary position of these opponents to the constitutional authori ties was not known, but great confidence is expressed that they would not be able to collect a sufficient force to off r a sue cessful resistance to the constitutional authorities. The Vera Cruz Censor inveighs severely againts the breath of faith olGuer rero, and says that his present movement completely eclipses the merit he liar! gained by his former services to the country Chamber oe Dp.PKTiRsFeb. 24 The Minister oi Foreign and Home Depart ments proposed that a sum of two thousand dollars be allowed yearly to the Consul at New Orleans refered to the Committee ol Finances. Claims on France. l will be ecn by the following extract of a letter from Havre, which is copied from the Baltimore Americau, that there is good reason to hope these important claims have at length been settled. Should this intelligence prove true, it will be highly gratifying to the country generally, and, to the friends and supporters of the present Administration a subject of just pride, that he has been able to com plete, what the preceding administrations labored in vain to ffect "Havre. March 1, 1830. The claims on Fiance are, I presume, finally settled. The French Minister has agreed to give thirty million ot francs, which, I doubt not, will be accepted by our government and secure a lasting peace between the two govern ments, to the mutual advantage of both countries." Baltimore American. new york, April 21. A letter from Laguayra, of March 17th, to a gentleman of this city, says "Venezuela is free and independent. There will be no civil war. The Con gress will meet at Valencia on the 30th of April, and a constitution will be form ed on liberal principles. Reforms in the tariff, beneficial to commerce, will be made duiingthe year In fact, the country will emerge from darkness and superstition to light and reason. Merc Adv The New York Mercantile, of the 20th ult. contains the following impor tant intelligence from Colombia: The brig Hiram, arrived last evening, sailed from Laguira on the 18th ult. We learn from Capt. Whitakcr, that the Commissioners sent by G n Bolivar, had been met by Gi Paez, who declined to treat with them on any other condition than a complete acknowledgment of the independence ol Venezuela. The Commissioners had therefore set out on their return to Bo gota Gen. Paez was at Veiencia. pre paring to resist attempts to subdue the country. He had already assembled about 10,000 troops in the neighborhood of Maracaibo and had they bet n joined by 800'of the troops sent by Bolivar Iron Carthagena, to act against him Thete was every indication that the firm stand taken by Venezvela and the other pio vinces which had leagued with her, would be sustained, and their indepen dence established " From the National Gczette It appears, by the last advices from Mexico, that General Guerrero has raised the standard of warlike opposition to the present rulers, who so cavalierly declared him to labor under an impossi bility to go ern CANDIDATES DEPARTMENT.

May 15, 1 83o U-6t l-R POSALS FOR PUBLISHING, BY SUBSCRIPTION, A GAZETTEER & MAP OF THE STA'l E OF INDIANA. -o;;o HAVING purchased the copy-right of Mr. Scott's "Indiana Gazetteer," we propose to publibh, as early as practicable. a Gazetteer ct the Mate; which will be on the usual plan of works of this kind, and will embrace, among other thu gs, a description of the Counties, Towns, Lakes, Rivers, Creeks, Roads, &c. The descriptions cf Counties will show their situation, time of organization, extent, boundary, quality of soil, water privileges, amount of population, number and character of churche and schools, &cc. The descriptions of Towns will embrace their lcxv.'jon, the whole number cf inhabitants, the um!jer of professional men, artists, mere!; t its, mechanics, the progress of improvement, distances from fhe seat of government and from other important points, their latitude, long'.tude, cc The descriptions of Riwrs and Ci ecks will be somewhat genet al, showit g their sourc e and confluence, size, length, the face t f the country through which they run, navigable advantages, &c. It is deemed unnecessary to say much in relation to the importance and value of the, proposed publication Every person, ho will reflect a moment on the subject, v.iil be convinced of its utility, and will see the importance cf patronizing it. Such works have been liberally patronized in many cf our sister states; and it is presumed tint 1 here is no state in the Union whose histnry, population, soil, and natural advantages .re less understood than those of Indiana. Ik-sides being interesting and valuabh to all classes of the people, such a work will add greatly to the charactt-r of the state ahroad, by developing, in some measure, the vast lesourct-s r.f the state, her repidly in jc tsing population, and her natural advai tages. Accompanying and attached to the dazetteer, will be a MAP of the state, on a small scale, but sufficiently large to contain every thing of importance which can be found in Maps of a larges size. The Map shall be executed with the greatest possible accuracy. Every exertion will be used to make the work accurate and interesting, being well aware that much of its value will depend oa the correctness with which the description are given. It will be printed ou good paper, with typographical neatness and accuracy, and will contain about 200 pages duodecimo, with substantial binding. The price to subscribers will be Onk Dollar per copy, payable on the delivery of the work. . Twenty-five per cent, on the subscription price will he added to non-subscricrs. DOUGLASS fc MAGUIRE.
