TO THE PEOPLE OK THE STATE,
OF INDIANA. Fellow Citizens; This evening we
have closed one of the longest, most boisterous sessions of Congress since the for
mation of the government, in few, if any
of which, has a less number of law s been enacted for the gcreral good of the coun
try.
A severe indisposition during part
of the last w eek of the session prevented
me, unless 1 could consent to remain
from my family, from executing
the purpose I had formed, of addressing
you a circular letter, mentioning more in
detail, the subjects that have received the "t 1
action ot Congress in wnicn you arc im
mediately interested.
The newsnaners have informed you ot
i i -
the termination of the lonri and arduous
upon the bank of the United
States.
Amongst the bills that have become
laws, the most important to our fctate, is that reviving the pre-emption lavoflS30
that authorizing the selection or land
granted for the construction ol that part
of our canal passing through the limits
of the State of Ohio, the Cumberland
road bill, and the bill providing for the construction of Light Houses. The pre-emption law shields the poor from the grasp of the speculator and secures to him hi3 improvements upon the public lands, with one hundred and sixty acres at the minimum price, and is in my opinion more important to the new States, and one calculated to diffuse more individual happincs, than any act passed during the present session. Mr. Clays land bill had it passed, would have had a tendency to enhance the price of the public lands, and the graduation bill, if extended to fresh lands, would have reduced them below the point of speculation, w hen they
wouiu nave been uuugnt up uy capuaiiis in lare tracts and retailed to the poor at
prices far above their real value.
I he law authorizing the selection of
the Canal urant in Ohio, removes the
last remaining obstacle to the certain and
pcedy completion by that State, of the
portion ot this great w ork that lies within her limits
1 lie J-ight House bill appropriates
.SoOOO for erection a Lin lit House at Mi-
chigan city, a very desirable object with one of the fairest portions of the State.
Laws have Icon passed, re-organizing
the Indian Department, and regulating trade and intercourse with the Indian tribes. Most of the Indian Agencies east of the Mississippi are shortly to be discon
tinued. The Indiana agencies, however, will be retained until the 13 1st of December, 2S315. A bill passed the Senate but failed in the House of Representatives, providing for the removal ot the office of the Surveyor General of Ohio, Indiana, and Mi-chi-ran Territory, from Cincinnati to South Bend, Indiana. No direct appropriation could be obtained for the survey of Trail creek, w ith a view to the construction of a harbor at its mouth, but I have received a letter from the Secretary of War, assuring me that an Engincerof the United States shall be instructcd to make the necessary examina
tions this summer. Should this be done,
which there is no reason to doubt, we may
reasonably expect tnat this most desirable
improvement ol the only point in which our state touches upon lake Michigan w ill
soon be made.
A. bill passed both houses of Congress
appropriating money to improve the navi
gation ot the Wabash river; but to this bill,
W 1 - 1 W 1
so important to Indiana and Illinois, tii
President of the United States has seen tit
to refuse his sanction. This extraordina
ry procedure is in my opinion irrcconcila
ble with his approval of bills for improving
the navigation of the Cumberland and the Hudson rivers, unless the advocates of this
policy seek to shelter themselves by clai
ming more for rivers watering the states
of Tennessee and N. York, than they are
willing to allow to the rivers of Indiana

the currency.
barefaced falsehoods and misrepaesentations arc sent abroad to deceive the people. It is no wonder that the Bank, which cannot have a high opinion of any one
but moneyed nabobs like themselves,
should suppose that the people may be ea
sily gulled, and blindly led into their own enlightened measures to secure themselves
unlimited wealth and power; but one miht think that the heterogeneous politi
cal junto associated with the Bank, might
have learned from past experience, that all this trickery cannot pass upon the
sound intelligence of. the community.
They are using the best and only weapons
which thev have, so that the blame does
not so much attach to their operations
(for what else can they do,) but to the iniouitv of their ultimate objects. It is
- j most apparent that the Nulliliers are on
the side of the Bank. Ihey do not yet come out openly, I speak of their leaders,
for it is necessary first to ascertain wheth-
er there be not too much honest consislcn
cy in the mass of the party to acquiesce
in such a palpable departure from the prin
ciples heretofore professed. 1 lie subtcr
fugcx, that the real question is not Bank
or no Bank, but the usurpation ot power
in the removal of the depositcs, the restoration of them as an act of good faith on
the part of the Government, and the relie
of the People who have been distressed
by the removal, as they allege. 1 hey
have not, and cannot show, that there was
the least usurpation of power, or any irregularity in the exercise of legal authority they must admit that if tho depositcs are restored, the Bank can and will produce such a state of things as will have no alternatiye but to rccharter it this is indeed w hat they want, and wish to bring about without alarming the jealousy of the people in relation to the danger of this institution, and the relief proposed, is to result as a necessary consequence from
the permanent establishment of the Bank. Can the restoration of the depositcs relieve tho distress? How, unless the Bank itself has produced the distress (as is really the case) and can remove it whenever it becomes pacified by submission to all its claims. The Bank has produced the distress, but neither can immediately remove it, nor will in the least degree at
tempt to do so, until its charter is renew
ed, and the present administration tram-
led m the dust by Nicholas Biddle and
Co. and their harmonious associates, Clay, Calhoun, Webster, eo Co. Their objects
will be promoted by continuing the dis-
ress, and can wc imagine that they will
act adversely to their own purposes?
The whole abiding calamity can still be
charged to the "experiment" and harmo
nize delightfully in the ultimate design. The Nullifiers iriZ find out bv decrees.
that the Bank is necessary to the prosper
ity ol the people, and that it they can get
into power by if, and have it in their own
hands, they can manage it very well, at
least so as not to do any material injury; or the constitution must be changed to ad
mit ot such a lian!,a thing that w ill not
be difficult at any time w hen unlimited
power over the currency and business ol
the country is joined with political com
innauons, eager, anu incrctore ingenious
io prosecuie ineir own amuitious aspira
tions. 1 he Bank and its friends seem to be confident of success, and boast of the
change which can be produced on the people. They say the people cannot bear the touching of their pockets. That in the nature of things, from the construc
tion of civil society, wealth must and trill
rule; that it has essential and irresistible
energy ol which you cannot deprive it,
that law cannot change it, and that the very source of all law will be practically forced to acknowledge it. Thus we have
the bright prospect opened to our aston
ished view. Concentrated wealth will
govern separate and individual wealth,
and leave it in quiet, alter it has paid to
the lord paramount a satisfactory amount of contribution. This must be done with
submission and without gainsaying, for
who would expect such high power to en dure the murmuring complaints of its vas
sals? Our condition would be infinitely
worse than that of the Russian serf, sold
w ith the soil w hich be cultivates, and attached to it as a chattel. There never was in this free country a crisis to be com
pared to the present. The Bank has shown its power, and boasts that one hundredth
part of it has not v ct been revealed. This is not the case, for the depositcs were the most formidable engine of its power.
but enough is left to require the united
energy of the people to resist it. It rcfu
ses io ne exammeo, except in sucn a way
as it mav choose, being emboldened by
the support of leading politicians to de
ny at the present moment what it had rea dily acceded to on every former occasion
1 he right to examine it is tcithout rcstric
tion, the remedy for any malfeasance is
! chief, a proceeding against it for viola tion of its charter. It sets up to be a pow
iiiu-.i.iiULni oi ine government, and
beyond its control in every thing w hich
can atlect its corrupt practices In al
this it is most zealously defended bv those
w ho agree in nothing else but this de fence, and opposition to the adminislra
tion. How strange it is that some of our Banks are averse to give the entire profits ol banking business to the public, butadvecate a course which w ill give the best of i to a corporation, having no identity ot interest with us, and make themselves hewers of wood and drawers of w ater for its accomodation. Who can impartially regard this subject, and not perceive that we can do our own banking business, and by its profits relievo public burdens, and
improve the surface of our State, as the garden of Eden, with natural and artificial rivers. J. MURPHY.
PREDICTIONS AND FACTS. The Panic makers twore terrible hard.
some months since, about the ruin which
the removal of the Deposiles would inev-
itably bring upon us. 1 hey aaia, uy way
of keeping up their own spirits, that

90 cents and that then the good people
of Virginia w ould en masse desert the Ad
ministration. But it turns out that our

They predicted, that tobacco would
sell at 30 to 50 cents reduction. When
Io! this great staple article commands an
admirable price. And the tobacco dis
trict will stand fast against the UanK, in spite of the panic makers and the toasters of the village of Danville.
They predicted, that the State Banks were going to snap like pipe-stems. And lo! our State Banks in Virginia are safe beyond the reach of the Monster itself and even the most croaking crow of the opposition docs not venture to deny, that our two Banks are as sound as the Bank of the United States itself. There is every reason to believe, that
the State Institutions elsewhere are also able to defy the d 1 and all his works." What is more, we have now to congratulate our readers, that the Patriotic Bank

Extract of a letter to the Editor, from col.
S. C. Stambough, Secretary to the
Board of Commissioners for settling
differences, &.c. among the Indians,
dated Fort Gibson, July 4, 1831. Dear Sir: There has been two steam
boat arrivals since I wrote you by the Ca
valier. The Win. Parsons, was chartered
by tho acting quarter-master, yesterday,
to transport provisions to the new post a-
bout to be established at the mouth of the
Red Fork of the Arkansas. In my letter
Hiving you an account ot tno recent mi
litary movements at this place. I believe
I mentioned that this post is to be carris
oned by two companies commanded bv
.
Major Birch. He is now there with his command
erecting quarters, and tne commissary
here shipped a year s supplies in conse
luencc of an indication of a fall in the river above. It was the first attempt to navigate the Arkansas by steam above the
mouth of Grand river, and the Captain o
the boat and the acting quarter-master,
Lieut. Ross, who was aboard, did not like
to incur the risk of proceeding to their des
tination. The new post is about 120 miles
by water, above this place. Grand river
however, is still rising, and the Verdigris
is at least 15 feet above low water mark
so I do not believe the main Arkansas
will fall below steamboat navigation for two or three weeks. The steamboats
have indeed had a trying time this sea
son. The Senator, now in port, has been
on the Arkansas river since tho 5th o April. The board of survey is now ins
pecting the flour and pork
of an earthquake. Kenncbunk Journal.
Iron Steamboat.. Mr. G. B. Damar
has built an Iron steam boat, at Savannah
which was launched on tho 8th inst. A Savannah paper, in noticing the event,
says "she glided into the water with an
easy and graceful motion, amid the cheers
of m vnstn rnnr.mirsft of sneetators who
had assembled to witness the novelty of an
ron Boat." 1 he Boat was named the John
Randolph, and is an "experiment to navigate the interior waters of Georgia.
The cast iron plates of which the boat
is constructed were imported from Eng-
and. Iron boats have been brought into
succesful use in that country, and there is
no reason why they may not be in this.
They draw less water than wooden boats,
and thence may be of vast utility on our
numerous shallow streams.

It w ill be a saving to the government, a benefit to the troops, and be of some service to the enterprising citizens. Wc have not heard from Iho dragoons for some days. They crossed the main Canadian, at the mouth of Little river, ten days ago, on their march to Washita. Gen. Ltftcvenworth and Col. Dodge left the main command at the Canadian, and proceeded with an escort to Fausse Washita, were Capt. Dean is now erecting barracks for two companies which are to be stationed there. The acting quarter master, Lieut. Swords, Capt. T , and Count Beyrick, Naturalist to the King of Prussia, and Professor of the University of Berlin, reached the post on the Canadian two days after the main body of the troops left that point. I believe I mentioned in my letter to you on this subject that Beyrick was accompanying the dragoon regiment on a botanical excursion, under the sanction of the President and Secretary of war. An order has arrived from Gen. Leavenworth, for Lieut. Chandler to proceed to Washita, with a command and several pieces of artillery one six pounder he is to leave at the post at the mouth of Little river. So you see we can supply Infantry, Cavalry, and Artillerists, from this post, as necessity requires. Lieut.

The superiority of Stagncr's Truss over all others now in use, is acknowledged wherever it has been employed, and all other Trusses have gone into disrepute. It will cure every species of rupture whether congeintal or the result of accident, and it may be applied to all ages without any danger to patients. The principles on w hich it effects a cure is acknowledged t be the only true one by the Professors of Transylvania University, and all the scientific that have examined it, and many that have worn it arc ready to certify to the efficiency of the truss. I have numbers of certificates at hand, going to establish the utility of the truss. I shall come prepared to apply the instrument, and all those who feel interested would do well to attend to the time, as I shall stay but a few days at a place while on my first tour through the state.

It seems to be an opinion widely and strongly entertained, that a daily paper, conducted upon this plan, so novel amongst us, but as highly approved of hero as successfully practised elsewhere, is called for by the growth of the population of this great country, and the consequent and rapid accumulation of matters of national interest, the views respecting which to be generally comprehended orlooked into at all, must be greatly and judiciously condensed. Ninety-nine hundredths of Americans are engaged in the active pursuits of life necssary for the support of themselves and families, and have not leisure to dig, out of grca masses of voluminous and dry details, tho snirit and

Economy of time, as well as of money is the order of the day with a people s" busy and enterprising as ours, and who are interested in so wide a range of public concerns, of all which they should know something, and in which none but those who can devote their time exclusively to their study, can be proficient. A national paper of this kind, therefore appears lo be called for not less by these peculiar circumstances and the immensely extended and diversified affairs of thu country, than by the improved and advancing state of society, and the active intelligent, and inquisitive spirit of the age. The price is put at the low sum of SIX DOLLARS a year, under the belief that the patronage which will be attracted to such a daily paper, edited on the principles which have been so generally an l so srongly approved by the public, "in the unprecedented favor and support acquired in so brief a period by the weeklv North American, will sufficiently reward our undertaking. If our friends in the great cities lend us the aid, w hich we have reason to believe they will, in extending our subscription list, and our conscquentupport for the daily sheet shall be as largo as we calculate, we will be satisfi-d and sufficiently paid with the very small profit to be made, at such a price, on the individual numbers of a daily paper, on which no expense of pains will be spared to enliven and enrich its columns with the best talents and the most interesting materials at the command of the news', papers press.
