india.-Calcutta Journals to the sth
of April have been received. By the
accounts from Rangoon, an embassy
from the Court Of Ava had been des.
patched to the Supreme Government of
Calcutta, one of the objects of which
was to be, to solicit some extension of
the periods for the payment of the third
and fourth instruments. Itappears that.
by the latest accounts from China, the
war was still going on against the in
surgent Mahomedan tribes at Little Box
hara. In the Calcutta Government Ga
zette, the possibility is limited at of an
appeal by those tribes to the assistance
OF Russia, and the cosequent extension
in that quarter of the vast territory al
ready possessed in Asia by that power.
Letters from Calcutta, TO the .9th OF
April, state, that several failures had
taken place in the commercial world,
and that trade was greatly distressed
A request for an issue of paper money
had been granted The Indigo marke'
was steady with an increased demand
Tie prospects Of tie ensuing crop
were favorable.

ADMINISTRATORS MEETING.

At a large and respectable meeting of

Of electing Delegates to the Anti-Jack-
son Convention proposed to be held in
the City Of Richmond on the second

The objects of the Meeting were con
cisely stated by HENRY S. TURNER, Esq.

persons was appointed by the Chair, to

After retiring a short time, the COM
mittee returned, and reported the fol

were unanimously adopted, viz:
The citizens of Jefferson County IA
vorable to the re election OF the present
Chief Magistrate of the United States,
assembled in public meeting avail them
selves of their privileges TO express their
views of the present state of affairs. La
claiming and exercising the rights secu-
red to them, they do not mean to treat
with harshness those who are opposed
to them in opinion as to the best means
of administering the affairs of govern
ment, or the most capable agents to be
entrusted with authority. Upon a free
liberation and expression of opinion de-
pend the purity and value of the cleo
tive franchise, and the prosperity and
permanency of our free Institutions
and upon the impartial judgment of the
people of the Union must those in pow
g. look for that support which is essen
tiaI to enable them to act for the general
good.
