insist that the law il constitutional.
Such conflict Of opinion between the
two Houses, il adhered to OH both sides,
would be a virtual dissolution of all
state government.
There would he no saving clause in the
charter, or constitution, either written
or constructive: and as no constitutional
legislative act, can annihilate the gov
ernment in any event, so any act which
might have such an operation, must be
beyond the power of any government
and of course unconstitutional. But IT
may be asked what could have been
done to avert the danger that lowers
round our political horizon, when the
administration party, the national repub-
iican party, and the anti-rnasonic party
are each waging war exclusively on their
own account? l would for myself,
rather have Governor Fenner, Governor
Arnold, Governor Sprauge, or any body
else who shall receive the most votes,
than no governor and no Legislature, or
even the mockery of one. How much
better to have declared by a resolution
of both houses, that plurality of votes
should constitute choice in the first
instance, or that after the first vote had
failed to elect, for want Of majority of
the whole, that in the second trial those
persons having the most votes should be
installed into their respective Offices, al
though they were elected by plurality
only, at the same time fixing the day
where said second election should be
held in case of failure on the first trial.
The language Of the charter neither adj
.mits nor denies the validity of an cleo
tion by plurality, it is therefore proper
subject for the discretion and construc-
ton of the grand committee, whenever
the case may happen, unless prevented
by former act Of both houses Of Assem-
bly,; which they have the power to make,
as they are the most competent to supply
by construction that which is doubtful in
the language of the charter.-That pow
or is incidental to its preservation; but
the present la,0 (as it is called) of the last
session, fear is more calculated to un-
dermine and destroy, than finish or re-
pair the edifice.
Ifihe Governor, Deputy Governor and
Senate, or either of them, should hold
their present seats under the late law and
against otter persons voted for, who had
more votes than the setting members, for
the places they may continue to fill, may
it not be question before the Senate of
the United States, whether the Senator
from this state, to be elected in October
next, will have been legally and consti-
tutionally chosen. TIvERTON.

Some of our readers doubtless re-
member the adulatory and sycophantic
address of Mr.. Everett to the King OF

Minister to the Court of Madrid. The
following are passages from it,
"Ipresume TO fatter myself that your

The N. York Standard copies the en-
tire address, and adds:-

having persisted.
"The loss sustained above, in consequence
of the food, must be immense, az dwellings,
barns, mills, lumber, -four, wheat, hay stacks,
&c. have been floating down in great quanti-
ties for many hours. But great as has been
the destruction Of property above, it must be
trifling compared to the ruinous effects Of the
rise below. The Columbus, which has just
arrived, reports that not vestige remains Of
many ofthe towns below. Marietta presents
n most melancholy appearance. A large por-
ton of the place has entirely disappeared,
and in the higher parts Of the town little
more is to be seen than tho tops ofchimneys.
Nothing could be learned respecting the
safety Of the inhabitants, as the boat could
not effect safe landing. The effect Of this
terrible calamity, will be sensibly felt by the
nero antile portion Of our citizens. Very
msny merchants bordering on the Ohio, who
were doing large and profitable business,
have lost every thing, and are thus made
bankrupt. But the most deplorable conse-
quence, is the effect it will have upon the
health Of the country. The vegetable mat
ter the river must deposit will feat, produce
fevers of the most malignant kind"

river was 81 feet above low water mark.

It is folly; it is the opinion of the intelli- gent GAss,and others who are tllorotl siiii-f siiii- lyaequainted withthc matter, that there is nothing fearful or portentous in any of our Indian relations. Laying aside | false sympathy and regret, for the un- +ayaillag and irrevocable mislakesef the past, in the national intercourse wiill the aborigines-we can see abundant reason for belief, that future relations with them will be amicably adjusted, and rendered reciprocally beneficial 10 all parties.

After all the noise which has been made about the Cherokee question;-
 after all the dolorous predictions which political seers have put forth upon the subject ;-there is every reason to be- lieye that the whole affair will be con ducted to a peaceful and satisfactory termination. This we have ever sup posed :-and it seems to us a species of treason, when points of controversy

 Battle aouh the Iadians,-A detachment Of 275 mounted volunteers have been de- feated by the Indians, on Sycamore Creek, about 30 miles from Dixon's Ferry, on Rock River. The following is a copy of a proclamation issued by the Governor of Illinois, received at this place by the steamer Herald from St. Louis:
 s'DIxoN's FERRY, ON RocK RIVER. "Io he .uiiHia of the State of Hiiaois,
 cit becomes my duty again to call on you for your services in defence of your countryside State IS not only invaded by the hostile Indians, but many of your cit izeDs have been slain in battle. 4 de- tachment of the mounted volunteers of about 275 in number, were overpowered by the hostile Indians on Sycamore Creek distant from this place about thirty miles and considerable number were killed- This Is an act of hostility which cannot be misconstrued. l am of opinion that che Pottawatamies and Winnebagoes have joined the hostile Sacs, and all may be considered as waging war against the IL. States.
 ssFo subdue them and drive them out of the State, will require force of at least two thousand mounted volunteers, in ad-
  have made the necessary requisition on the proper officers for the above number of mounted men-and have no doubt that the citizen soldiers of the State will obey the call of their country. They will meet at - the Illinois River, in compa- nies of fifty men each on the 10th of June next, to be arranged into Brigade.

 1t is said fifty-two of the mounted vol unteers were missing-and apprehensions were entertained as to the safety of two keel boats, having 200 regular troops on board under the command of Gen. Atkin- son. Our own opinion is that Gen. A. had found it more difficult to ascend the river than he had anticipated-and that he had not, when the action above mentioned took place, reached the country occupied bY the hostile tribes.
