VINCENNES, MARCH 5, 1331

The Steamboat Java, Capt. Fearing arrived on Saturday the oth undischarged a part of her cargo, proceeded up same day, bound for Terra Haute, and the upper ports on the Wabash river. The population of the state of Missouri, according to the last census, amounts to 140,30 1 souls. On the 3rd of February last, a brick and several frame buildings -were destroyed by fire in Cincinnati, Ohio. The "Question of Power," in the first page of this day's paper, from the Louisville Public Advertiser, merits an attentive perusal from every re ader. The Wa, a-h river has risen almost to the top of its banks, and the boats are now pissing down with the surplus produce of our country to a southern market may ready sales and good prices await them The law of the last session of our Legislature, regulating the mode of doing county business, is given in this day's paper the reader w ill observe that one part of it provides for the election on the first Monday in April next, in each township, by the people, of constables and other olliccrs. ILLINOIS AND MICHIGAN CAXAL. Wi find the tol. owing paragragh in the last Rock Spring (Ih ) paper: "The repor. of the Commissioners, and of their engineer, laid before the legislature, presents an astounding fact! It appears that the country intervening between the Chicago, and that portion of the Dcs Plaines, vvhsre the canal must strike that river, of 18 l-2miies, is bas cd upon hard lime stone, covered with a strata of soil about half the depth the canal is required to be from the surface, to receive the waters of the lake as a feeder, and that this bed of rock (ascer tai .ed by various borings,) will make that section of i8 1-2 miles cost more than one million and Jive hundred thou sand dollars wore, than double the amount ol what the whole expense of the canal for 72 miles has been computed at. Consequently the project of making the lake a feeder must beaban doned. The engineer suggests the probability ol obtaining a supply of water from the Calimick, a stream that empties into lake Michigan about 12 miles south, but no survey has been made. X"Io a few who feel deeply interested in opening this communication with lake Michigan begin to express their deci ded conviction in favor of a rail road across this tract." BOLIVAR. The following proclamation was issu cd at Santa Martha just before the Polyoma sailed, which has arrived here in :3 days, having left there on the 13th December There is hardly a doubt that the next arrival from that quarter will bring tidings of the death of the great South American Liberator. ,Vat. Int. colomdians! You have witnessed my efforts to plant Liberty where Tyranny before reigned l have labored with disinterestedness, sacrificing my own fortune and even my tranquility.

M His end has been hastened by his heroic sacrifices for his country, and the tears of his friends attest the siuceii ty of their grief for the loss of a hero, whose name must be forever embalmed in the hearts of his countrymen. Citizens, The Liberator has been devoted to you to the latest perind of his existence Hear his voice, and respect his decrees, which should we violate, the national ruin must be the infallible result, and the independence of Colombia will die with the hero who gave her liberty. Citizens The Liberator has left us forever. We must be unanimous, and go hand in hand for the good of the U nion, and secure what he has already a chicved for us obeying the actual Gov crnmcnt, in order to liberate us from an archy, and our conduct will correspond with the Liberator's desires Remain firmly united together, and swear on his grave to follow up the dictates which his inspired mind laid down for the good of his country, and by this means will we honor his memory, and discharge a heavy debt of gratitude. Jua de Francisco de Martin. Carthagena, Dec.21, 1830. The following is the la3t decree issued by Bolivar, and alluded to by General Martin; The Liberator to the Citizens of Colombia. Colombians You have aided me in concentrating my fotces to cherish liberty where tyranny had fixed its abode I have unceasingly and disinterestedly exerted my best cnerges for your welfare I have even abandoned my fortune and my personal tranquility in your cause. My enemies abu:c your credulity, and endeavor to destroy my reputation by questioning my love of liberty; and fellow citizens, I grieve to say that I am the victim of my persecutors, w ho have now conducted me almost to my gravebut I pardon them. My affection for my country will not permit me to sanction any extraordinary luneral obsequies My last desne is, and my last hope is to see the consolidation of my beloved country. Let all unite for the good of the union let the people confide in the actual government to save them from anarchv let the! priests offer up their orisons to Heaven, and the soldier regard his sword as the best guarantee for preserving the institutions of hia country. ColcmMans I leave you; but my last prayers are offered up tor the tranq "ditty of Colombia: and if my death wiil contribute to this desirable and by a discon tinuance of party feeling, and consolidate the union, I shall descend with feelings of contentment into the tomb, which will soon be prepared for me SIMON BOLIVAR Signed at the Camp of Haciendo, a league from Santa Martha, lOih Dec. 1830 Administratrix's Sale ILL be sold 3t public auction on Saturday tbo 26tb day of March next, at the late dwelling of Ira G'ithn, i i r o it. i Uw.vvu, .uiiun u uiti personal property of said deceased, con-1 ststing of horses, cows, hogs, household ! and kitchen furniture, together with a j variety or aructc noi necessary roonu- : meratc terms made known on the d3V of sale sale to commence at 10 o'clock on said d y.
