Sketch of tho Life and Character of tho Late Jsmoa A. Lowes.' Ricnuo.Ni, Ind., Feb. 2(5, 1807. ' Mr. L'JitS, I notice in a recent nutn ber of your paper, akctch of tho life of tho tato James A. Lowes hurj., who died in your County a short timo ago. Allow an "old friend to add a word to keep green tho memory of a most exemplary man. I was surprisod that an earlier obituary notice had not appeared in your paper. The recent sketch hows that Mr. Lowes came of an extraordinary atock. I affirm that tho Scotch Irish roco has produced more ond great or great pood men than tho samo number of any other cUm or raco of men. Thoo who live and dio truo to their- convictions of truth, riht and justice, aro tho stuff of which heroes and martyrs tro made. Ho was akin to tiro patriots) of the devolution, was cradU-d in tlio times of old, and breath ed tho inspiration of tho men who laid tho foundation of our institutions was ever truo to his curly convictions, and loved his country end her friends to tho end. Mr. Lowes was a citizen of your County for nearly fifty years, and by his fruits he may bo Judged. It was my good fortune to bo intimately acquainted with him for about forty of thOsu ycurs. Ho was eminently pure-minded, iutetligentChristian pcntlciuiin. Although an ardont, dovoted Prcby tcri.n, )o had a generous Catholio spirit; and many of otdvt, warmest and ' most cotiMtient fiicndhipn wero formed with mon of other denominationa. lie was a chiton of tho County from it.4 early settlement. Of a rjuief, unobtrusivo n.itttre, ho for many years held tho position of a Justico ot the Fcacc, and no man lived who could moro truthfully bo called a Pcuccmakcr. He surrounded himself, his family, friends and neighbors with fhe spirit of hu Savior. His family and home was peaceful, quiet, retired from tho cares, anxiclica and turmoil of Iho world. Ho wax a most kind and affectionate husband a firm and dcroted parent a i;ood cittzcti and neighbor a consistent, ardent, life long fiic nd. I call to memory, now, many, very many coxes where he was tho paeiUicutor anion'? his neighbors, who tome to biin breathing slaughter, but who, after listening to hia Christian admonition, doparted with tho spirit of a lamb. Our friend laavea an nod widow who traveled patiently with hiui for msny Ion; years, aud will soon join him in the Kdeit above. ' Ouo or two children and some grand children live to bless him for his conitent Christian conduct, character and example. With a feeble constitution, by temper ancc iti all thing, he numbered over eighty years outlived three generation Llenscd tho' world with his lite and influence. Wo live to mourn hia Ion, which ii hb great pain. He never murmured at the Providence of (led; had an abiding confidence, verified by a life-long experience, that all" things shall work together for good to those who lovo and servo Him. A good man has füllen in Israel. Let us' imitate la i as lirluc, and join him in llcaveu. ' , FntKMk.

PONDENT. L'AvriiENCEnuiiui!, Feu. 23, 18C7. Mr. JL'Yfor, I am so much absent from homo that I scarcely knew whether I was still subscriber lotbo Amtrican or not. Hut finding the issue of Feb. 22 on my tablo on my return homo last evening, I took it up carefully as I would take bold of tho hand of an old fiicnd to learn 'the typographical intelligence of the Whito Water country.' ' TUB REJECTED. The first item I noticed wns tho rejec tion of my obi friends and fellow travelers Uavin and Harrington, who it seems ore not "right on tho goose," or something clso is tho matter : for to ba rriuatcJ liv tho United Stutcs Scnato implies that thev have been 'swinging lound tho circle." or clso they aro not competent I tho emergency, or perhaps havo jinrd Petroleum V. NaabyVt church, or committed, somo other act of iilutntry which cannot be forgiven. Well, tic traim't g'orit inundi. DIVORCM. ' I wai well satisfied that tho American waa published in Indiana when I began to rend tho "eases titL-atcd at tha l'.-t.m. ary Tcnflf of tho Franklin Circuit Court, J udge Wilson prosiding." Kight cases of divorce in ono week I J hat is more than I ever married in a month In my ofllcial history.' Py tho way. wont Franklin County bo n good place to como to, to get second-handed wives and husbands?. I trow i: will. Hut few men think how destro.'tive of the morals of society this Infamous civil regulation of our Stte laws Is. Men and women laugh at us all over the Union, and no have no means of defense. Why is it so? Is Indiana worho in thia regard than any or all of Iicr si.'ter State? I am no lawyer and do not know, and only havo ono thing to ronsolo me In tho matter, and that is, no couplo that I ever joined in nmti imony has ever asked for or obtained a divorce. I tio 'em t'ght when I marry Vm. In this respect I guess I havo boon moro fortunoto than even tho famous Judge CuUu. ' uuv. wsi. it. D.v:r.r.v, This gontJcmtn, born, I bclievo, in Franklin County, is nsm;d in ono of your columns as being Mail Agent for iho Stato of Louisiana. I have known him fur moro than thirty years; knewji'sm when ho was classod among tho most prominent young minister of tho State. Ho was gifted in speech, popular in talftit, cealous in spirit, nnd possessed moro than tho ordinary ambition and energy to sustain himself and iho causo. Dailoy no doubt always hod his fsults, yet I novcr believed ho was tho guilty or the f.llen man which ho has been nccuaod of being. If tho charity of tho ISiblo should bo tho governing power, wo might bo permitted to say that tho prosecutions of Dr. Duiley have brought no particular credit to tho ministry of Indiana; albeit, he may havo done some things very unbecoming his 'ofllcial relations. I do nit wish to bo hia apologist, but I know that often jnon siu.in the spirit of their fjrohccitioos against a brothcr.so as to injure tho cause id' Christian charity and prove to the publio .that they themselves aro not conservators of moral reform. Hut I will say I am glad Dr. Dailoy is provided for, although 1 owe him nothing. YOUR CORRESPONDENTS. I seo you still retain your Washington correspondent "J. IL 0." John always was of the regular and fiithful stiipo. Hut I havo to laugh nt his presumption in thinking oT doing up the engineering fur tho whuld Democratic patty. Why, even Jtcv. Petroleum V. Nusby can't "do the subject justice," and for ono of John's capacity to try such a thing on is most propustcrous. I mosj sincerely hopo ho will not attempt it. Politics is such a strango sort of government religion, you enn't tell where it will land you. Thon, tho moro conspicuous you become, the leva you are thought of, and tho more you aro abused. Maliy a man has hod his head cut off just bceuuso ho did not belong to tho right political church or did not about "plory" at tho right time. Lincoln was murdered by men who wero politically crazy, and tho land is still full of insano men. That man "Harding of Kentucky" of whom ho r peak a is much more a fool than a truo Democrat if ho thinks tho wholo South was whipped by a few hundred Northern I cnucnuary convicis. nu great puiiwitilo of national unity rttlcs a very large majority of tho Amcricau people, and no 'party or section can live in their coufidonco or votes that attempts to overrido it. I am opposed to my good fricud John taking upon himself any such a job, albeit I have no doubt but tho party now in power will do ita very best to hold tho organized Democracy of thcday in obedience to ita rule, if it even 'quires ' impartial suffrago" to accomrlMi it. A CIIANÜI It the subject. It waa not myiburpose to say anything on politics, and" believe I wont, until I run fur some olSco. Then it will be timo enough, for at the present writing I am every day with men of all political shades, and we meet on tho lovel and part on the square, and so I wish it to be, lor I think an unchjritablo intolcrancy is tho meanest religion a man can have. I was initiated into some Order oneo, I remember, where they informed mo in-tho start "that it should not interfere with either my religion or my polhicB," and they then wished to know if I was willing to proceed. Of course I was, and am still willing to go anywhere ou such principles. I once had

I

a Presiding lüder who said he would not

break bread with a Distillcx. I went and otb and slept with him. -I only talked with him on tho subject as bo would talk tome. ' I gave him; a .doepment or two, aod in n row montha after he quit tee busi ness.', The Vest evidence of any man's li tine' mission. Is, "the poor have the gospel preached unto them REV. JAMES IIAVENS. , This good and crest man has now been in bis grave for more) than -two-year, and yet no cfhciai etTort liaa been made by his Vonjcrcnce to Hold up Ms character and bistort lor the; benefit of posterity. Is it not strange tlriat btit one Methodist Preach er of-our Slate-ha over had a published book : history? and even tint would not probably havo been -done if it hod !not been for your olmost forcottcn correspond ent. Tbo family and many of tho friends of Father Havens havo been uriring mo to write for publication in book form "sketch cs of the character and ministerial history" of him, and I bavq some dozen chapters written, but my present duties demand so much travel, that I can only write on the wing., , When such a work moy. appear I cannot now say; but as soon as timo and circumstances will permit, I hopo to give to tho thousands of his inends n memo rial of tho. man which I hopo will prove a I just tribute, to his character.
