The poor iel- low, since he became editor, has led yagabond life of it. He made his first trial at Versailles in this State next he got temporary foothod in New Or leans driven from thence, he took refuge in sinking establishment al Lexington: unable to earn his por- ridge there he has fled beyond the limits of inc Union, and pitched his tent in of the Territories We advise hlm when he takes his next flight to es- tablish himself at Lands End; and if he fails there. let him jump off at once, and end his rambes and his miseres together 1t will be the only way to keep himself from cvsning upon the parish.

him who he was, whence he came, &C.; but

shot one of them dead on the spot. He fled,

the day, and travelled by night. An hour af-
ter his arrival at New Orleans, he had been

CUMBERLAND ROAD.

!, The undersigned being deputed by the
citizens of Centervile and Richmond to &C
to Terre Haute, Indiana, and confer with
4 Captain c. A. Ogden, Superintendent on the
Cumberland Road in Indiana, on the subject
OF confining his operations on the road to the
vicinity of Te.re Haute, and to offer on the
! part of the Branch Bank at Richmond, facil
tiles in the disbursements of the appropril.
ton If he would apply..a part.ofit in construc.
ting the road in the eastern part of Indiana,
proceeded to Terre Haute and arrived there
on the 18th day of August, inst. and remain
ed there three days, during which time we
had several conferences with the superinten-
dent on the subject above named. Capt
Ogden, to us evinced every disposition to ex-
pend the appropriation for the best interests
of the road, and stated to US that his wish
was to operate on three distinct portions of
the road-ten miles of the road at Terre
Haute, ten miles east and west of Indianapo-
lis, and 10 miles west of Richmond; and that
the propositions of the branches of the Bank at
Richmond and Indianapolis had obviated all
difficulty in regard to the disbursements of the
money on that plan-and that the only OBJ
stacle now to immediate operations on the
road at the above points, was the construc-
ton given to the Law of last session of Con-
gress by the Secretary at War that the mon
ey and labor should be applied exclusively
on one continuous portion of the road, and
that exertions had been made to obtain the
reversal of the above construction which
might possibly be attended with success, in
which event he, the Superintendent, would
commence work at Richmond
and Indianapolis.
Capt. Ogden seemed to lean strongly in
favor of his own plan of operating on the
three points before named, and averse TO CIV
ing the Law the same construction as the
Secretary at War. He also changed his plan
Of gathering and storing the tools, implements
&c. used on the road. and directed that those [
that were east of half way from Indianapolis
10 Richmond should be stored at Richmond.
He also directed that rakers Qaborers) should
De placed along the whole line of the road
where the Grade has been finished to repair
md keep the road from sustaining iniury,l
stating that he did not feel himself so boundl
