VINCENNES, MAY 10, 1831.

At the special election on Monday last, Joseph Chambers, Esq. was elected Associate Judge, in place of Judge Price, dee'd. The time for receiving subscriptions to the several Branch Bmks in this state, closes on this day. I shall be able in my next, probably to state the places at which the stock has been taken Au election has been ordered on the 2Gth of this inst. for a Magistrate in Vincennes township, to supply the place of Martin Robinson, Esq. whose term of service will expire about that time. I am authorised to say, that he will serve his follow citizens another term, if re-elected. I hac been authorised to say that William Ilnpcr, will serve his fellow citizens as County Commissioner, for District No. 1, if elected. Mr. Stout: PleAse publish the followin notice in the Western Sun: Mr M. R. Thimble will lecture on the subject of the Christian Region, in the Court House,in this place, on Sunday the 18:h inst. at 11 o'clock, a. m.,and at 4 o'clock, p. m. M. RHODE ISLAND ELECTION. All towns except Charlestown, which gave last year, a democratic majority of upwards of thirty, have been heard from, and Mr. Francis, the Jackson Candidate for Governor, is 198 votes ahead cf Mr. Knight, the bank candidate. Mr. Francis, is undoubtedly elected. The democrats have a majority in the Legislature of thirteen. Rhode Island stands "redeemed, regenerated, and disenthralled." Louisville Adv. The news from Virginia is cheering there is little doubt that a majority of the new legislature will support the measures of the administration. She is decidedly opposed to any project for rechartering the United Stales Bank. The latest intelligence of the progress of her elections will be found in a paragraph below from the Richmond Enquirer. From the Globe. The following from the Richmond Enquirer, shows a gratifing result, as far as the Virginia elections have gone. The statement in the intelligencer is false as to several of the counties claimed in its columns. We have not however, such full information as to enable us to present the precise state of the pending contest. Mr. Ritchie's estimate, we have no doubt may be implicitly relied on. THE VIRGINIA ELECTIONS. In the Senate, Fontaiti's election would tie the parties and liar wood's would give the administration a majority of "2. The friends of the administration have lost but two votes Caroline, by mismanagement, and Kanawha and they have gained 11 votes (counting No(taway) in Legislature making 18 clear votes in 415 counties. The prospect is cheering. The result is in the hand of the People. Then, to the polls. GOVERNOR LINCOLN'S ABUSE OF THE GENERAL POST OFFICE. This gentleman said, in debate, in the House of Representatives on Friday last. To the discredit of the nation, the contractors every day supplicating payment, were driven away by threats that their claims, if they continued their importunity, should be balanced in forfeitures tor failing to comply with the terms of their contracts. They were also threatened with the loss of their contract itself, for the Postmaster General made a most convenient provision in all his contracts that . iii i- i .ithev sn mid oe discontinueu at nis plea sure. These facts he challenged any one to denv." It is astonishing that a man who has had reputation enough to obtain the office ttrGovernor in the commonwealth ot Massachusetts, should become so regard less of it as to sink into a retailer of such preposterous, and wanton falsehoods as those contained in the foregoing extract. The chairman of the Post Office Committee, Colonel Connor, immediately called upon htm to name a single instance of such an act by the Department, giving at 'the same time the broadest contradiction to the statement but the honorable gentleman stood mute under the interrogatory. Mr. Lincoln's representations are in direct contradiction to those made by his colleague, Mr. Gorham, a short time sin :e. that the Department dare not enforce the performance of its contracts, or impose tines, for the culpable failures of contractors, because it was in arrears to them, and feared they would raise a clamor on that account. Truth and consistency are little cared for by politicians, when their o'.-ject istoviliify the administration or anv portion of it. The fact is that both statements arc devoid of truth. lb. Thc voting Federal lawyer, w ho played the orator at the "starvaton meeting" on Thursday evening at the Court Il(use, atcr a long and tedious rehersal about tyranny, usurpation, ,c. broke out in the pathetif exclamation: "Alas', fellow citizen, if liiis awful state of things exists much longer, we hhall le compelled to come to hard labor for a livelihood!" Pro-tli-giou! What an awful calamity it would be, if some cf the youn juill ilri

vera and tape cutters, should bo compelled to soil their white fingers and soft palms, with laboi ! Ob, ye Jackson mechanics if ye have any pity left, do turn out and vote the mongrel ticket, and save these delicate young sprigs of aristocracy from the awful fate of "coming to hard labor for a livelihood1.'1 Rcc. D. Adv.

The Bank people are now-a-days the exclusive friends of the "Constitution" and "Laws;"' but by Constitution, they mean the Bank of the United States, and" by the Laws they mean the rules which govern tha loauing "facilities." Blairsvillc Record. From the Ohio Sun. NO MISTAKE We copy the following extract from the Boston Courier, an old Blue light federal paper and supporter of the Hartford Con vention, and now in the pay cf the Bank. The remarks arc based upon the probability that Mr. Vau Baren and some other JelTersonian Democrat would be the only candidates for the next Presidency. In this single admission of the Boston Con rier, we have the whole secret of the opposition of the Bank Federalists to Mr. Van Buren. It i3 that he is a Democrat of the Jefferson school a crime sufficient in all conscience, to call down upon his devoted head, the united slanders of the whole Bank Press. Mr. Jefferson was opposed to the Bank, and so are General Jackson and Mr. Van Buren. The two former have long since received the best assurance, that their principles and acts have met the sanction of the people and if the health of the latter is spared for a few more years, he will have the high gratification of seeing that the American people still cherish and adhere to the same correct political principles, they did in the days ot Jefferson. "We arc afraid that events will prove this prediction too true. It would be difficult for anv man who looks for the good of the nation to choose between Mr. Van Buren and a Democrat of the Joffersoniau school. We sa deliver us from both, let the difference be what it may. It is the adhcrancc to the accursed "principles of Jtjfersonian Democracy" that has brought the country to its present embarassments, and the great majority of our citizens to the verge of bankrupcy and destruction. Andrew Jackson is a. devoted worshipper of Thomas Jefferton and treads in the steps of that arch deceiver, more closely than any other of his predecessors. He Jackson resembles his prototype Jcffor sou in all but talent. He has the same or scriptive spirit, the same bitter hostility of temper twards every thing that opposes his will. Mr. Jefferson had perhaps more caution arid the art to conceal his purposes within his own t reast, till his means and agents were prepared for the intended consumation. General Jackson is some what bolder, and therefore the less to le feared, because his intentions can be ex posed; if not in time to be frustrated, pos sibly in season to allow, now and then, a victim to escape. We think thenaiMn has had experience enough of the 'bus ings of JelTersonian democracy. preserve us from an other experiment P? SPECIMEN OF A MODERN DICTIONARY. Steamboat.
