More Lynching.

We learn from the Peoria (Illi. Register that,
few weeks since, young man named Geo.
Fisher, of Henderson county, was taken out OF
bad at night by band of ruffiians, one half OF
his head shaved, his body tarred and feathered,
and then, with his hands tied behind him, put
into canoe and set adrift in the Mississippi
river, with threat that they would kill him If
he came ashore. After floating few miles,
Fisher contrived to free his hands and reach
the shore He Immediately returned home,
and caused some of the rufians TO be apprehen-
ded, who, after due examination, were bound
over to appear at the next Court-two Of them
in bonds of 81 200 each, the others from S4OO
TO $500 each. The remaining four ruffians
made their escape TO the Iowa side of the nver,
and there succeeded in rallying mob, who
came over in ferry boat and recaptured Fish
er This was in the middle Of the afternoon.
Fisher was taken some twenty yards from the
road, tied with chain and rope, and guard
of two men, armed with knives and pistols,
placed over him, who told him that if he hal
looed instant death was his portion. Here he
remained till dark, when he was taken TO the
second island above Bloomington, and fogged
by four men until his back, legs and arms were
cut into welts He was then presented with a
lie-bill TO sign; refusing TO do which, ne was
again put into canoe, in which was a large
stone, and set afoat. He however effected a
landing a few miles below Burlington.

The Buckeye blacksmith.

The Southern papers have been circulating
a story that Bear, the Buckeye Blacksmith,
was recently arrested and bound over on a
charge Of horse stealing. The facts ofthe case
are thus stated by the Sciota (O) Gazette -
"a sharper came among the Indians 10 cheat
them out of a horse. He got some of them
drunk, and bargained for valuabls horse for
some articles of very trifing value. Bear, hear
ing of this, sent for the horse with the intention
of keeping him until the Indian got sober. The
sharper, incensed al being foiled in his imposi-
lion, went 10 magistrate, and upon his own oath
got out warrant against Bear for horse steal
ing. He was arrested, stood the examination
before the justice, and was discharged, and the
Indian protected against the fraud This is the
story on which the charge of horse stealing was
got up and circulated in the Loco Foco press 4"

A Short Lived Triumph.

Our Loco Foco friends, as it seems to US, are
making themselves somewhat ridiculous They
are shouting over the Veto. firing cannon, and
making other similar demonstrations at the
prostraton Of the National Bank, and all before
they discover whether or not such an institution
will be chartered by the present Congress.
The defeat of their darling measure, the Sub
Treasury scheme, seems TO be totally lost sight
of, or utterly disregarded. Their rejoicing will
prove but momentary, and we may soon expect
TO see those who are loudest now in their PAN
egyrics upon the Veto, equally clamorous, when
bv some new act, the President shall prove
that. however he may differ from the Whig par
ty upon one point, he is nevertheless with them
in heart and in principle in all the other leading
measures Of national policy.-Pa. Ing.

FROM WASHINGTON.
Correspondence Of the Inquirer 8, Courier.
Washington, Aug. 26, lS4l.

Washington, Aug. &c, ls4l.
Great efforts are making by certain party
to induce the President to ueto the Land Bill
which has just passed the Senate; but you need
not be afraid Of such an act. The President
will sign it the only difficulty being in the
House. on the part of the delegations from Penn
sylvania and New York, who object 10 the
amendment to distribute the lands in the ratio
of the Joint representation in both Houses OF
the respective States; but even this difficulty
has been removed bv this evenings caucus
The truth is, the smaller States are by this
amendment much the gamer; but more en-
arged patriotism ought 10 prevail, and preven,
split of the party at this critical moment.
The dissolution of the Cabinet spoken of in
my last is no rum0ur---I believe | have never
troubled you with mere rumours and coniec-
lures, as all my letters will prove---but an un-
avoidable, necessary measure, which may be
delayed for week or so, but which must come
to pass, however you or may wish to avert such
calamity. do not mean, however, that the
whole Cabinet shall 60 at once, or that It's mem
bers one and all shall at once assume posi-
ton hostile to the President 1t may be that
one or two remain, or that the most prominent
member of the Cabinet. may be sent to Europe;
but some important change in the Cabinet will
take place Immediately after the adjournment Of
Congress.
The President has been seriously indisposed
for day or two past. The White House is
literally stormed by visters, every one think
ing that his advice is sure to save the nation
1t would be best for the President not to see
people at all for week or two. His kindness
makes him receive every body.
Mr.. Bolts card is foolish production from
beginning to end, and couched in such language
that the lntelligencer refused TO publish it. The
epithets, "Captain Tyler" 'traitor," and the
like, are conceived in the worst spirit, and cam
not be productive of the least possible good.
| still hope the Bank Bill will be laid on the
liable, for if it pass the Senate i, will most as
suredly be uetOed, and then the breach in the
Whig ranks in inevitable. Twenty Whig
members, it is believed, will 60 off with the
President at once. Parties have been too ex-
cited all along, and there is, am afraid, no
chance of reconciliation unless they are sep
araied, and allowed to cool off. Congress will
adjourn in two or three weeks.
Why are not the merchants invited TO give
their experience at the bar of the House, as is
done in England on all similar occasions? Each
commercial city might deputy person of es-
iablished character and business talents to
plead It's interests and its views; and Congress
would in this manner obtain more real infor-
nation in day than in six weeks haranging,
declaiming, eliminating, and recriminating un-
til they are at the swords point just ready to
cut each others throals. repeat it, nothing
but speedy adjournment can keep the Wing
party entire.

Treaciiery of the leaders of kOcOfO-

the corrupt and dishonest ruler of this State
Yet, Notwithstanding this alarming fact, every
loco foco representative in Congress from this
State, uoted against a bill which pouId not only
pay the interest on this enormous debt, but IN a
short time, pay off the debt Itself! The Bill to
distribute the proceeds Of the Pubic Lands, Tor
which Pennsylvania poured out her best blood
in the Revolutionary and Indian wars among
the people of the several States, TO whom they
belong, did not receiUe the Uote of q single loco
fOcO' Will the people of this State sustain men
who thus betray their interest? When the
hardworking and industrious farmer or trader,
or mechanic is called upon TO pay an hundred
and fifty or t0O hundred dollars on property that
he has toiled whole life to accumulate, LET
HIM REMEMBER THAT IF THE
FRIENDS OF DAVID r. PORTER HAD
VOTED TO DISTRIBUTE THE PRO-
CEEDS OFTHEPUBL LANDS AMONG
THEM AS THEY OUGHT TO HAVE

NOW HAVE TO PAY A DOLLAR OF TAX,
