Kendall Circuit Court.

The Gll term of the 9th judicial circuit, COM
mcnccd at Yorkville Kendall county. on Monday
last-his honor, Judge CAroS, presiding.
We understand that the pcaceabIc citizens Of
this new county did not trouble the court with a
heavy docket.--The new Judge, it is said, prcsi-
ded with much dignity, and gave general
satisfaction TO the members Of the bar. That he
will become one of the most popular presiding
judges in the state, few can doubt who are ac-
quain,ed with his requirements and general bust.
ness habits.
One gentleman received permanent situation
at Alton for three years, for stealing horse from
Mr.. Coleman Olmstead. Of Sha-bau.nes Grove.
He goes by the name Of Commodore Shaver, and
was confined in our county Jail during the last
six weeks. We mention his fate that his " com-
panions in arms" may know at what point to ad-
dress, should they escape going there themselUes'

congress forthwith pass an International copy

had undertaken was not quite so easily perform
al as he imagined, has returned to England, and
has published long letter in the London papers
denouncing the American people in the most I'M
measured terms, applying to US the very hattering
epithets Of plunderers," "robbers," "pirates" &c.
To those who, Immediately OH his arrival in this
country, took Mr.. Dickens by the hand and daily
and nightly be-dnnerej, bc-toasted be-feted, and
be-routed him, such a cooler must be particularly
refreshing. it U,ay learn them wisdom. 1t

republican simplicity Of their manners, extort adj

cy, exciting contempt.

Riot IN Cineinnati.-A rather serious riot oc-
CURED in Cincinnati on the 9th inst. During the
day German volunteer company, under the
command Of Lieut.. Heckei, were on parade, and
were, as is usual, followed by number Of boys.
Some of the boys crowd:ng too close upon them,
Lieut. II. struck several of them, not injurrg them
much, but with sufficient force to draw blood. This
greatly enraged the boys and in the evening, after
the parade, they collected in great numbers at the
SINS Souci House. which is kept by Lieut.. H., and
commenced throwing stones in the windows. At
this several soldiers rushed out and commenced
beating the boys, which brought others to their
aid, and general attack with missiles was made
upon the house, which attack was repealed by fir
ing from within. Many were wounded, some Sc
riousy and one MORALLY. Atength the city mar
shall arrived and arrested some ii or 10 Of the RI
oters and took them before the mayor, which dis
persed the rest.

"All's right when daddy's sober" was the sig

A Noble Act.-Thc Erie Gazette of the 4th inst.
says: ."rhe steamboat Buffalo arrived at this
port on Tuesday, from pleasure excursion to the
upper lakcs.-An incident occurred at st. Marie,
one of the stopping places, not unworthy OF record.
A band of Indians were invited on deck to dance,
and, in their gyrations, an aged squaw tum-
bled overheard and sunk. Any one acquant-
ed with the fidelity and ia character of the In
dams towards the aged Of their tribe, may readily
imagine the unear,hly cries and lamentations inn
mcdiateIy sent up by the whole band. Quick as
thought, young Indian, SON OF the drowning
squaw, plunged in to the rescue OF his mother
but failing to rise in reasonable time, w. Minor
Roberts, Engineer on the Eric canal, and one OF
the pleasure party, plunged in after, and very
soon rose to the surface with both mother ana
soE, when all were hauled on board in safety !!
Nothing could exceed the gratitude of the whole
tribe towards Mr.. r., manifested by screams OF
delight and hanging upon him as though they
would cat him up with kindness"

This state, il is well known, is unreprcscnted in
the U. States senaies and it is equally ellknown
that the rcas5v lkSst u NJ t,ss, because the two
branches of the les tasSfS, in one of which there
is democratic and in the other wing majority,
were unable to agree upon the mode Of election,
the senate contendng that tho two houses should
vote separately, and the house that they should
meet in convention and vote together. In order
to have the matter settled the democrats proposed
to the wings that all the members Of both houses
should resign and then let the people decide. Al;
fist they pretended to be willing to accept the rea-
sonabc proposition, but, after taking great while
to deliberate, we now learn that, seeing the game
would go against them, they have backed out, up
the ground that the present members (who have
no right to mako bargain for their successors)
will not pledge themselves to bind the democratic
members to carry ont the will of join. majority
Of both houses. This was a condition never made
by the wings at the outset Of the negotiation-but
il is convenient after-thought to cover their in
glorious retreat.

Broken Promises.-rhc wing promise to the
workingmen of 'two dollars a day and roast beef
in the event of the election of "Tippecanoe and

charge of about t,oo thousand mechanics from the
different navy yards throughout tho country and
the reduction of the wages of those retained; and
their sincerity in the cry they raised about the cx

THE ILLINOIS FREE TRADER.

A Fail During Fecf-says the Stamford (Con.)
Sentincl-was performed by youngster named
Bones, last evening, in this village. He assembled
the north end Of the Congregational church, so
along the ridge Of the roof, and up the steepc TO
the top of the vanc "a distance of about two hun
drcd eet) by the aid Of nothing but the lightning
rod attached to the building. From the ground
to the top of the vane is 2l feet. After swinging
a while upon the vane, and dancing jig upon
the brass ball, he descended again, with apparent
selfconfdence that he had not been in the least
exposed to danger.

Pennsyirania--A Nto.-At the recent session
of the legislature of Pennsylvania, the wings and
a few democrats who got districts to suit them
selves by sacrificing the whole state, passed an
apportionment bill which is denounced in every
quarter of the state. Very shortly after the pas
sage of the bill the legislature adjourned, thus de-
priving the governor of an opportunity to veto il

out any law whatever under which to elect men,

mated with his objections on the opening of the
Legislature in December next.

Simon p. Shopc, Esq,
0rD. s. EnEnsoL, Esq, at Pontiac, is author
lied TO act as agent for this paper.


On the first page of to-day paper our readers
will find President Tylers message vetoing the
'big tariff BILL" 1t is a well-written, digniied,
and forciblc documcnt--to our mind the best de-
cidcdly Of all his veto messages. Its appearance
has taken no one by surprse-t comes every
where Gas was expected and therefore, though
unquestionably the most important Of all the We
toes, it has not caused as sudden and great fer
ment in the public mind AS either Of the othe T
three. The bill vetoed was VIGOROUSLY passed for
the sole purpose of experimenting upon the pre-
sidcnt--ior the purpose of trying whether he
could be induced to commit himself in favor
of tariff above 20 per cent. and distribution at
The same time, by placing before him the alterna-
tive of either signing the bill or letting the wheels
Of government stop for want Of means to car
ry it OIL. The result of the experiment has
shown that the wings cannot "head Captain Ty-
Ter" and that, whatever may be the threats of the
infatuated wing majority Of congress, yet, when
duty to his country demands il, john Tyler will
shrink from no responsibility. Will the wings
now dare to adjourn congress without passing
a reasonable revenue bill-one levying a tariff
that together with the proceeds of the public lands
will afford an ample revenue and yet sufficient
protection to our manuiactures--just such bill
us the country wants-or will they honestly ac-
knowledge that in their attempt to "head Captain
Tyler" they were headed themselves, and patrioti-
cally go to work and legislatc few days for the
people, after having legislated nearly nine months
for Henry Clay! Nothing, we confess, would
surprise us more than to hear from Washington
that tho wings had gone to work to lcgislate for
the people, but "nil deyeundumi"- the in
fatuated wing majority in congress may yet be vi
sited by few rays Of reason, but if they are not,
the time is not so very fur of when the people
will have and opportunity to Gust their present
faithless servants.
