known to the government of th United' State, and orders were forwarded by the president, to the commandant of the provinces of California, Don Jose Maria de Eheandia, to liberate them, on peril of subjecting himself to the vcangeance of the government of the United States. They were still retained as prisoners on parole, the commandant refusing to pire them passports to return home. Mr. Pattie's father died while in prison, in a separate cell from hirrself; and while on Ids dying bed, wrote a letter with his own blood to his son, beseeching him to petition the commandant to suffer him to visit his father in his dying moment the petition of the son was refused by the demi barbarian, and the father permitted todepattthis world without once again beholding the only solace within his reach on earth. Shortly after the party liad been freed from priion, a revolt arnong the soldiers took place, headed by one Joaquim Solis, when the Americans and English in port, amounting to about forty men, took advantage of the rebel and his party, and confined them in the castle of Montera, consisting in all of about two hundred and fifty men. They immediately wrote to the governor of the provinces of upper and lower California, to come and lake possession of the castle

rf Montera and the prisoners For this - tignal piece of service, Don Jose Maria de Ehe2ndia, granted them passports, in December last, and liberty to return to their native country. Mr. P. thinks that two of his companions must have been murdered by the Indians, as they undertook to travel home through the wilderness, having made their escape scon after they were rcleasedfrom close confinement, and nothing being heard of them since.

PROPOSALS BY SAMUEL HILL, FOR tVBLISHISG IS riNCENNBS, ISD. A IfBEKLT NEWSPAPER, TO ME CALLED THE VINCENNES GAZETTE.

DEVOTED TO AGRICULTURE, COMMERCE. MANUFACTURES, POLITICS & EDUCATION:o O o ; THE entire materials appertaining to the late establishment of the "Wabash Telegraph." having been procured and placed under the direction of the present Editor; he acts in accordance with, his firm conviction in issuing the proposals for another newspaper, that the best interests of the country may be promoted, if it be iorously sustained. In his opinion, the period has arrived when bv an increase of population, the future wealth and power cf cur state must depend on the use f phyMCul resources winch now lie dorment. The general desire of improvement is "heard abroad in the land" it is breaking ihn ugh the obstacles of party manag?ment, with un anima ted and cheering independence. A system of common school education, the improve ment ot our rners, the completion of the Wabash and Erie canal with a few leading roads through our state, will soon develope the resources alluded to, subserve the interests of the state, and promote the individual wealth and happiness cf every part of it. It is deemed unneceassary to enlarge here on the course the proposed editor will pursue the great interests alluded to, shall receive particular attention; and the contents of the paper will be the best evidence of its usefulness. It mav not be amiss to state here, that with a steady adhe rence to these interests, and an unwavering j perseverance in support of every measure intende d to advance them, the consideration of suitable men for public service, actuated solely by disinterested patriotism, shall not be omitted in proper time. From his numerous friends the proposed editor asks and expects support; and while he particularly solicits the patronage of the citizens of Knox and the adjoining counties, he hopes the citizens cf the state generally, and those of Illinois adjacent, will step forward and foster the undertaking. TERX&S. Tke Gazf.tte will be published every Saturday, on a Super Royal sheet, edited by Samuel Hill, and issued to subscribers in Vincennes, or placed in the Post Office for distant subscribers, at two dollars and fiftycents per annum in advance or three dollars at the expiration of the year. As want of punctuality is a formidable drawback to some editors, payment in advance would be preferred. Country produce delivered in .Vincennes at th mills of Messrs. Wheeler and Webb, or Mai ron and Hunter, will be received at the market price in payment for subscriptions. Advertisements will be inserted at one dollar per square for thiee insertions, and twenty-five cents each subsequent insertion. Subscribers will be at liberty to discontinue their paper on paying arrearages; but a failure to notify of a wish to discontinue in conformity to the terms, will be considered a new engagement. XT" The postage must be paid on all letters or communications addressed to the editor. Vincennes, August 7, 1830. N. B. As it is proposed to commence the publication of the paper on the 4th of September ruixt, my friends would confer a fa vor, by obtaining as many subscribers as possible, and return the subscription papers to me previous to that time.

August, 1830. 27-4t i ii i PROPOSALS FOR PUBLISHING, BY SUBSCRIPTION', A GAZETTEER & MAP OF THE STATE OF INDIANA. 0:0:0 II TAVING purchased the ccpy-right cf Mr. Scott's "Indiana Gazetteer," we propose to publish, as early as practicable, a Gazetteer cf the State; which will be oa the usual plan of works of this kind, and will embrace, among other things, a description of the Counties, Towns, Lakes, Rivers, Creeks.-Roads, Sec. The descrip. tif,ns of Counties will show their situation, time of organization, extent, boundary, quality of soil, water privileges, amount of population, number and character of churches and schools, &c. The descriptions of Towns will embrace their location, the whole number of inhabitants, the number of professional men, artists, merchants, mechanics, the progress of improvement, distances frcm the seat of government and from other important points, their latitud longitude &c The descriptions cf Riven, and Creeks will be somewhat general, showing their source and confluence, size, length the faceof the country through which they, run, navigable advantages, tec. It is deemed unnecessary to say much in relation to the importance and value cf the proposed publication. Every person, who will reflect a moment on the subject, will 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 that there is no state in the Union whose history, population, soil, and natural advantages are less understood than those cf Indiana. Besides being interesting and valuable to all classes of the people, such a work will add greatly to the character of the state abroad, by developing, in some measure, the vast resources of the state, her repidly increasing population, and her natural advantages. Accompanying and attached to the Gazetteer, will be a MAP cf the state, cn a small scale, but sufficiently large to contain every thing of importance which can bo found in Maps of a Urges size. The Map shall be executed with the greatest poss:br5 accuracy. Every cxerticn will be used to make the work accurate and interesting, being well aware that much of its value will depend cn the correctness with which the descriptions are given. It will be printed on good paper, with typographical neatness and accuracy, and will contain about 200 pages duodecimo, with suostantial binding. The price to subscribers will be One Dollar per ccpy, payable cn the delivery of the work. Twenty-five per cent, on the subscription price will be added to non-subscribers. DOUGLASS Sc MAGLTRE.
