Il er last Saturday night, under strong suspicion
lof practical intentions. Suspicion was first
excited when she had arrived at Hurson's Is
| land, where they landed and stole three
head Of cattle belonging to Mr.. Hurson.
! While engaged in this act, one of the crew
who had previously meditated nm escape,
left his companions, and communicated to
the people ashore, the fact that the cattle
had been stolen by the crew, and also made
affidavit Of such other facts, as justified an
immediate and energetic movement on the
part of Mr.. J. X. Smith, the collector of
customs, the Sheriff of st. Clair, and other
citizens, to arrest the vessel before she enter
ed Lake Huron, whittier she was bound.
When the steamboat Gen. Gratiot arrived att
the village Of Palmer, on Saturday about SUM-
down, Mr.. Chamberlin the Sheriff, and about
80 citizens embarked, and directed Capt.
Robinson to proceed mmediatelyin pursuit of
the vessel. The Gratiot proceeded as direc-
ted and when about six miles below the mouth
Of Black River, about 10 o'clock at night, the |
vessel was discovered under full sail. On COM
ing up with her, Capt, Robinson hailed her
in the usual manner, but no satisfactory res
Donse being made, they were ordered by the
sheriff to come along side, which was done
With reluctance. Upon enquiry it was found
hat she had no papers. Process was then
ssued upon them by the sheriff, and they
we're lowed INTO Black River, where they .
we're held in custody to await an examine
ion, which was to have taken place yester- h
ay.
Whatever may have been the occupation
r design of these men, it is certain that their n
ppearance, and that their vessel was such a
> to create mistrust in the minds of those "
no met them. The Schooner bore no name,
as painted black, with a red streak just r
Dove the water line, and appeared to be well r
1ilt for sailing, and apparently an old vessel. "
he crew were generally armed, and the Of B
;ers wore blue coats, in uniform, with A a
erican buttons, but otherwise British trim
ngs, and all ornamented with huge musta- ri
los. They were commanded by one whom l.
ey called Gen. Dixon.

:, vENTroN.-We had the pleasure of attendin,
at Brookville, on Tuesday last, the ceremon.
of breaking ground on the Whitewater Ca
nal. The assembly Of spectators was very
large and enthusiastic; but one feeling o
glad rejoicing seemed to pervade the whole
and the state OF the weather was the only
interruption of the festivities Of the occasion
An appropriate and highly eloquent address
was delivered by Lieut.. Governor Wallace
in the grove below the town, after which the
ceremony of digging the first earth was per-
formed by Gov. Noble, Elk. Gov. Rsy, DR..
Drake of Cincinnati, and others, amidst the
deafeniug shouts Of the multitude. The
company then repaired to the dinner tables
adjacent, and after partaking of the cheer a
number Of regular toasts were drank, which
called forth appropriate addresses from seve-
raj of the distinguished guests; letters were
also read from Messrs. Clay, Johnson and
others in reply to invitations given them toI
the celebration. A heavy shower Of rain pre-
vented the offering of volunteer toasts, and
the company hastily dispersed.

The Convention met pursuant to adjourn

the forenoon.
The committee heretofore appointed to
prepare and report business for the action of
the convention, now report the following pre-
amblc and resolutions.
That inasmuch as the state of Indiana has
embarked largely in works Of Internal I'm.
provement, connecting various portions of
the state, and providing outlets for her sur
plus productions, thereby greatly enhancing
the value of private property in the vicinity
of such works, to construct which the aggre-
gate people Of the state contribute: and
the citizens resident in the valley of
the East Fork Of Whitewater, view with
much satisfaction the efforts making to inn
prove our state by creating facilities for ex-
ternal and internal commerce, and feel will |,
|ingness to aid and assist in the improvement
Of all Practicable works of utility, in whatev-|
er section Of the state; yet they feel DESTROYS
TO participate more Immediately in the ben.
efits of such works. From tie highly i'm
proved and densely populated valley Of the
East Fork Of Whitewater, a considerable
PORTION of the state revenue has been and
vill be derived, and it is but reasonable that a L
corresponding share of the benefits arisina| ;
rom public Improvements should be extend
