before they have discovered that man is a
progressive being. The reason that this
great and redeeming truth, as to the pro.
gressiyeness of mans nature, has not been
more generally known, is. that hitherto
the progression has been so slow it has not
by many minds been marked and perceiv-
ed. And the institutions that have gov
erned the world have kept mind chained
to creeds and constitutions. worrying and
tugging to lake care ofthe dead things Of
the past. Butthere is a cutting loose from
these bodies OF death. The advancement
IS becoming more rapid, so that it is now
more and more seen that it is for man TO

is the Is: of May, and from Calcutta l4th
of April. There had been another i'm
portant military affair in Scinde. Major
Stack, who was proceeding from. Sukker
to Hyderabad in command of a brigade,
encountered strong body of the enemy
within days march of Sir Charles Napi-
er's position but they were not very res
olute in their opposition to his advance,
and he beat them off without much diff.
Guilty. Sir Charles Napier allowed the
soldiers one Gay TO rest, and at daybreak,
on the 34th of March, he set out with the
whole of his force, 5000 strong, to meet
The Sclndians He found them about half
past eight o'clock, rs, 900 strong, or more.
posted behind one.of the large nullahs, or
dry.water courses by which the country
is intersected in all directions.
The battle lasted three hours. The Sc
fquel is succinctly told by the Bombay cor
respondent of the Morning Chronicle:
The enemy's infantry and artillery. it
appears fought well. but the carvalry rath.
er inditferently. Their loss was very
/ great about 400 bodies being counted VI
on the field of battle, while the neighbor
ling villages were filled with dead and
wounded men. Three chiefs fell in the
action-onc Hajee Mahomed Seeee. the
great promoter ofthe war. Eleven pieces
of Cannon and seventeen Standards fell iu-
to our hands but very few prisoners were
taken, the Bochees fighting TO the last.
with great desperation, and the custom OF
their country warfare being neither 10

OF :heir force must have been composed Of
mature age, as scarcely single youth
could be seen among the slain.

presidcuiial Electors.

We observe the State Register takes GROUND
against the proposition made by several democra
tic papers, tina, the conventions Of the judicial cir
cults to select delegates to the national convention
shall also appoint the presidential electors. Now
we think the proposition good one, and cannot
see the force of the Registers objections. Indeed
the only one deserving Of consideration is, that
the step would be premature, as there is yct no
presidential candidate in the field. But in reply
1t may be urged that, # the conventions Of the
circuits cannot find men on whom they can rely
with sufficient. certainty to vote for the nominee
of the national convention, they may appoint a
time for holding other conventions to nomnatc
electors after tho adjournment of the national con.
vention. All the reasons for having the delegates
10 the national convention appointed 10y single
districts are applicable in favor OF appointing cleo
tors in the same manner. II both cases it is TAX
