Y. Courier. Of the three reigning monarchs of Europe to whom I have now been presented, there is not one whose natural dignity and personal fitness for his station have impressed me, in any degree, like that of our own venerable President. 1 have approaclcd through guards and masters of ceremony, with all the splendid paraphernalia of regal palaces, themselves in the imposing dress ot monarchs, standing in the sanctuaries ol j history anu association. I called upon the latter without even sending np my name, Introduced by the son of one of his Iriends, in the scarce finished government house of a new icpubiic, and found him in the midst of his family, hardly recovered from a severe illness. The circumstances were all in favor of the former, but I think ihe most bigottcd follower of kings would find something in the simple manners and stern dignity of the old 'Chieftain, that would impress him far more than the s'ate of all the monarchs of Christendom.' From the .V. Y. Commercial Advertiser. LATE FROM EUROPE. The arrival at Boston of the ship Propontis, has furnished intelligence from Europe somewhat later than had been previously received. The only prominent article of news, however, relates to a battle reported to have taken place between the Constitutional army under Count Villa Flor, and the forces of Don Miguel, commanded by Marshal Bouiinont. within a short distance from Lis bon. The following is a copy of ihe intelligence, as contained in the Western (Exeter) Times of Aug 23d: LATEST NEWS FROM PORTUGAL. Two expresses arrived in this city tothy from the scene of war, by which we 1-arn that Bourmont with the Miguelitc forces, had arrived within four leagues of Lisbon, where he was met by Villa Flor, the Pcdroitc General, with nearly the whole of his forces. A very severe battle look place which terminated in favor of the liberal cause, but not without severe loss on each ide, as the Miguelitcs are stated to have lost 6000 aud the Podroites 4000. There arc twoaccounts, one claiming the victory for Pedro, and the other for Miguel." In relation to this report, the Liverpool Times of Aug. 27, says: That if one of the expresses had passed through Exeter on the 23d, the news must have appeared in the London pa vers of the 25th, but they contained no intel igence ol the kind, un tne itn Marshal Bourmont was at Coimbra, 150 miles N. N. E. of Lisbon, with about 12,000 men. The forces of Molellos, according to our last accounts, had been reduced to a mere handful. Cadaval, with his 5000 men, withdrawn from Lis-

Since tbe above was in type, wc have been favored with files of papers to the 3 1st ult. and letters to the 3d inst. from w hich we glean the few Ioilowing addi tional particulars: Bv a letter from Guadalahaa of t4ie 9th August, published in the Geceta de j Tarnpico of the 28th ult. we learn that the cholera has made its appearance in the capital of the state of Jalisco since the 24th July, as well as at Zacatecas, and that it prevailed at the latter place more mildly. The following extracted from the above mentioned letter deserves particular attention. "At Zipatiltan every case of the chol era that occurred was cured by the use' of the root of a plant called by the nalives cocjuelicol sanvage amafiola Syl vesf.re and with which tne country a-j bounds.

This gentleman seems lobe as much try shall assemble in convention by its j delegates, to determine upon whom this great honor shall be bestowed. Should ! it then appear that Mr. Van Buren is the choice of the republican party, why should his name be withheld? Should the contrary be found the fact, and the preference given to another, neither Mr V B nor his friends will complain, but on ihe contrary will unite heart and hand in carrying into effect the voice of the peopie. Why should such a state ol things be so exceedingly distressing to the opposition? Is it a matter ei any concern to them whom we shall sclec or the manner in which he shall be bro' forward? If they have a better man, let' them produce him, and if they can sat isfy a majority of the people of his superior fitness, they will u.ost undoubtedly i prefer him.

From the Frankfort Argus. This delay in our publ:cation. has been in order to present entire to our readers, one of the most important public documents wc have ever issued from th? press the expose by the President of the United States, ol the causes which have compel led him to order the immediate discontinuance of the deposites of the public money in the Federal Bank! We will offer no comments on what the Presdent has so luminous set forth to his constituents; no explanation could make the matter more clear, he that runs may read. The rightful power of the executive o vcr this subject is conclusively proved j b lh lhc nl -in tet.cr Df tne iaw, am by ; lhe praclicc cf the government under the administration of President Monroe, shortly after the establishment of the Bank; and the necessity of his action is so fully established that none can doubt but such as would noi beleive though one were to rise from the dead. This measure of ihe President, we confidently predict, will be the most popular of his whole eventful life, not excepting even his conquest ot the British, nor his suppression of the plot against the integrity of the Union. In no act of his life has the character of Andrew Jackson been more strikingly or more admirably displayed: The statute of Congress imposed the responsibility of controlling the deposites of the public funds and keeping safely the money of the people on the executive department; and he zz the head of that department, sworn to se j lhc laws faithfully executed he avows that he performs this duty as his own act; without attempting to interpose anyother department, or individual, between him and his responsibility; or even to share it with him. Doubtless lhe Bank officers, its Editors and others on whom President Biddlc has bestowed their tens of thousands and bundreds of thousands for preparing and publishing libels and other wiac support-

ing its usurpations, will roar and foam;! those Indians to remain where they

It must be evident to themselves, since their red brethren by whom they were once surrounded have already removed west; orate under treaty stipulations to remove soon, that they cannot continue long where they are at present.

What will our sympathetic brethren, ''away down east,' think of these 'poor Indians" now?

If some efficient, decisive and energetic measures are not speedily adopted, and enfor-

By that victory we drove the British into Lower Canada; cut off the communicator) between them and the poweifu) and warlike tribes oi ihe North Western Indians, and dissolved the grar.tl confederacy among those tribes, by killing Tecumseh, ihe great Chieftain, who kept them together.

No other chieftain coud supply the place of Tecumseh. At his death, this great and formidable confederacy crumbled, to at(horrors of savage warfare, to which they had been subjected ever since the surren der 01 Detroit, Mackinaw, and Chicago. This battle terminated the war in the North West, which had cost us millions of money, and the lives of many of our of roost valuable citizens, and which had a been prosecuted by general Harrison and of ! his brave troops, under difficulties, privations and hardships scarcely paralleled eveninthewar of the revolution.
