Rnhf- bale Owen.

We find in the New York Sun OF June II. the fol-
lowing notice of the course which has been pursued by
the Indiana State Journal in relation TO Mr.. OWEN.
Though the course of the Journal in this matter may
be relished well enough by some Of its readers, others,
sand particularly these actuated by gentlemanly and
disinterested feelings, instead of partIzan bigotry,
gcannot but be greatly Disguised. Brit the Journal
[evidently thinks that %"nothing good can come out of
/ Nazareth, and acts accordingly.
.The Indiana State Journal is quite out of humor
4 with the Hon. Robert Dale Owen on account of the
truly able and eloquent letter he directed to our col
umns, In which he set the motives and conduct of In
diana in relation to her State debt In a new and fair
Ter light. We were obliged to MIR. Owen for giving
us and the world in general a higher opinion of his
state and greater confidence in her anxiety and ultl-
mate power to meet to the last cent her liabilities,
s They must like TO be misrepresented, those Indiana
journal people, or they would not snarl so savagely
at Mr.. Owens patriotic explanations. A paper here
not too afectionatelv inclined towards Mr.. Owen and
the spirit of the Western people, attacked a vote Of
his In Congress as savoring of an exclusive and Sec
tional feeling,-and from it, the State debt letter, and
the tenor of his public career, (for down here In this
little village of New York Mr.. Owen is extensively
known and appreciated we drew some differences
and made o editorial remarks which it appears
the Journal hates TO endorse. We cannot make the
I Journal take rhubarb or our views, but If we had com
Z mitted an error, MIR. Owen was In no manner ac-
countable for il. We did not intend 10 accuse any
party exclusively of the folly of embarrassing the
State of Indiana so deplorably. And we agree with
MIR. Owen that all parties had better leave discussing
! who was most to blame in creating the debt, ad
think seriously of the best means of restoring the
State credit. He says rightly, ''that party and those
men who shall chiefly bestir themselves in bringing
about her honorable extricatiOn under some plan tha
will not unduly burden her citizens, win merit ant
receive the gratitude of the State" Mr.. Owen him
self has led the way nobly in the good work, anC
! whether the Journal unites in the sentiment or not
we bid him God speed for the sake of the struggling
and much abused State of Indiana"

Wellington and Napoleon.

! In a volume of Sayings and Writings of the Duke
of Wellington, just published, the following is a let
ter to the Duke of Beresford, from Lord Wellington
! ''You will have heard of our battle of the 18th,
Never did | see such a pounding match. Both were
what the boxers call '~gluttons.' Napoleon did hot
manGuvre at all. He just moved forward In the old
style, ia columns, and was driven off in the old style
The only difference was, that he mixed cavalry with
his infantry, and supported both with an enormous
quantity of artillery. / had the infantry for some
time in squares, and we had the French cavalry walk
ing as if they had been our own. / never saw the
British infantry behave so we'll"
I The Albany Evening Journal justly observes, that
the man who, amid the dead and wounded of that
sanguinary conflict, could write in a spirit of such
ind ifference and leyity as characterizes this Let
ter, mnst be utterly lost to all the sympathies of hui
manlty. ID
| The following incident related of Napoleon, evinces
that he was influenced by a much more creditable
Feeling on a similar occasion:
''Hc was riding late one day over a battle field,
gazing on the dying and dead that strewed the ground
by thousands about him, when suddenly those eve
lining bells struck up a merry peal. The Emperor
paused to listen, his heart softened, memory was busy
with the past; he was no longer the conqueror of
sAusterlitz, but the innocent happy school boy al

9despite of difficulties that seemed insurmountable and
dangers the most appalling At such times he count
ed no costs, he reckoned not who followed him, hut
with iron nerve and indomitable resolution he Glove
himself a passage through all obstacles, and strobe
with gigantio4ootstePs to the objects he held in view.
8 w may admit that he had faults-wbo is there in
{the sublunary world that has mott His were, however,
the faults of a great and noble mlnd-we might say,
THEY originated from an excess Of those great quail
sties that made him a hero and a patriot 1t would,
fperhaps, be inconsistent with the wise ordinations of
Mature, to constitute an individual with moral and
physical qualities so evenly balanced In all respects,
as to enable him in all things, and in despite of all
obstacles to reach the exact line which divides good
from evil, without sometimes passing over from the
impetus necessary TO attain it. General Jackson may
Ehave done so on some occasions, but his errors were
few and trifing, indeed, compared with his many vir-
tues and the magnitude of his services. The conse-
ouences of the former have long passed away, but the
GOOD that he has done will live after him in the glory
she has added to our national character, and in the free
institutions he has so materially aided to secure.
I In person, General Jackson was tall, and of a some
what spare make. He possessed a vigorous frame
land remarkable powers of endurance. During his
presidency 1--WE never had the pleasure of seeing him
during his earlier years his digni6ed and venerable
aspect, and his urbane and courteous manners, won
the involuntary affection and esteem Of all who came
within the range of his influence. Not only his
friends, but his political enemies who knew him per-
ssonally, loved and admired the man-they could not
thelp it. No one could look upon him without being
Immediately impressed with the conviction of being
in the presence of an extraordinary individual. There
Twas an indefnable something in his appearance, man.
iners and department, that was irresistibly captivating,
and that marked him plainly as one differing materi-
ally from all ordinary men.
] He has now departed from us forever. We shall
never more behold him upon this earth, and indeed,
we of the present generation cannot expect ever to
sbehold another like him. The world produces but
flew such men as Andrew Jackson. Regrets would
be unavailing, but we can and will cherish his re-
Smembrance, as that of one who has been the pride
and ornament of his country. The impartial histo-
srian, will assign him a rank among the greatest he
froes and patriots, of the present or any other age.
MAY his precepts strengthen our bonds of union and
sthe love of liberty, and his example stimulate the ris-
ing generation of America, TO seek for renown, In
deeds of %virtuous and disinterested patriotism.

I In our paper of the 18th inst, we inserted a COM
munication under the signature of Sc" which APP
pearing to be of a political character, the latter por-
stion of it, in relation to the alleged expulsion and dis
mission of a few students in this institution, did not,
in a hasty perusal, attract our notice, or at most, but
simperfectly. As to the statements in this part of the
denomination, we have no doubt tine writer was
misinformed.
In c~heerfully publishing the following letter from
Professor Larrabee in relation to this matter, we take
spleasure in saying that our former favorable opinion
eof the University has been constantly on the increase,
ARISING from the well know learning, purity Of char
sacter, amiable department and ability of the Faculty,
and the increasing number of the students. We never
before heard a whisper against the discipline of the
Institution, and are satisfied that no well founded OBJ
Election exists against it. We doubt not that its exer-
else in the case referred to, was painfully forced upon
the Faculty, and was absolutely necessary to the well
fare and usefulness of the University. We know of
no literary institution in the West which we would
s%sooner recommend to the notice of parents or guar.
sdians in which to obtain for their sons and wards a
ssound and thorough education.

ITO THE EDITORS OF THE STATE SENTINEL:
I Genuemen-Your correspondent -E, in the Senti-
mel OF the llth INST, grossly mlsrepresents the facts
In relation to the expulsion of certain students from
our University, His version of the affair conveys an
impression utterly false. He is either ignorant of
the facts in the case, or he %wilfully and Intentionally
smisrepresents them.
/ II is not usual to make cases Of college discipline
matters of public discussion in a newspaper. | do
mot think that the present case demands, on the part
Of the Faculty of the University, a departure from
their usual course, which is to refrain from exposing
to the public the acts of misdemeanor in the ill-ad-
svised and misguided young men, who may fall under
ssalutary discipline. Nevertheless if E, under his
{S,cn proper ndme, pleases TO discuss the subject, and
THE parties more particularly interested ask for a de-
svelopement of the whole affair, they may be accomo-
dated. Yours, respectfully,
k w. G. LARRABEE.

Rrifish Abuse.

! The London 'sTimes,' (making up its opinions OF
matters and things in this country, from the state
rnents of the Wing paPers,) in one of its late arti-
'ces, discussing the probable results Of war, and back
ing out from the bullying tone which it at first as
'sumed, observes.
'sThe Northern States are identified with the con-
.tinuance Of peace and the progress of manufactures,
Itbe Southern States would not like to sacrifice their
trade in cotton, tobacco, and other produce, for so IL
lusory an object. The brawlers in the West may de-
sire a row, from an inherent love of sport and of mis-
.chief, or a thirst for gain"
Despite of Its much boosted intelligence, nothing
could more clearly prove the ignorance of the London
a.Times' than its remark in relation to the West
Especially as to the feelings with which its people re-
'gard the Oregon question. In every respect, the inn
'~putations Of the Times are the reverse of the TRUTH
iOur people have no desire for a sbrawl' or a ''row''
about the matter. They have not made and will not
make any 6luster about it, in imitation of Sir Robert
Peel and the London Times" But it is not the less
certain, that at all and every hazard, they will main
tain the rights of our country to the territory Of Ore
'gon. Indeed, they will take possession of it; and
'peaceably, if they can, %forcibly, if they must, will
maintain possession. In doing this, they will not be
impelled, as the Times supposes, by IAN inherent
love of sport or of mischief" and least of all, by "a
thirst for gain" They regard the question as one
too serious for 'sport, and, of all sections of our
country, the people of the West are least controlled
10y sa thirst for ~gain"-much less than even the
South. to which the absence of such q desire Is most
frequently accorded. The Southern people may be
more liberal in expenditures the Western people are
careless about obtaining the means for being so. Nor
is Oregon desired by the West merely to promote ma
stional aTrrard; cement. The chief desire is, that the
Territory shall not become a part of the British colUnl-
'al empire, and consequently subject to the infections
'of English rapacity, oppression and avarice but that
lit shall be a home of the free and a refuge for the OPP
ipressed. However they may be Inexperienced, OF
'misrepresented by their enemies, this IS the govern
ing motive with the Western people and the London
.sTimes'' cannot learn too soon, that they have the
ability, as well as a firm determination, to act accord
.ingly, Notwithstanding the abuse of the ''Times," OF
the buster and bullying of the British government.

A WING Candidate an last.

We see that John b. Foley publishes in the Journal
"a list Of appointments to address the people in favor
sending him to Congress from this district. The
journal, however, does not seem disposed to endorse
him as the preferred Wing candidate, and we don't
wonder at it. The Wing people here laugh at the
idea of voting for John-the Wing leaders say no.
We hear a rumor that Hcrod is also on the track,
es a Wing candidate. But thus far we haze no bet
tier authority for the fact.

The Oregon Emigrant's Address to the
American Flag.

A1EtCAECA1h IHtSs
BY MRS. SARAH T. BOLTON.
Dear ensign of liberty, as l unfold thee,
TO gaze on thy beautiful embiems once more,
An angel is whispering that | shall behold thee,
Triumphantly waving DER oregon's shore.
As now on the breeze thou art gracefully streaming,
Like some lovely spirit untainted by earth,
Thy stars are as purely and brilliantly beaming
AS when they arose. DER the land Of my birth.
To form thee, a bright band of angels attended,
Each with an Offering of Heavens own dye,
And p~atiOt's found, when the colors were blended,
The stripes of the rainbow, the stars of the sky.
20 to the land where the orange is throwing,
It's Eden-like wealth on the wing Of the breeze,
Where beautiful lakes and bright rivers are flowing,
To miDgle their waves with the tide of the seas.
Wilt thou, like the pillar of cloud, go before me,
As far from my kindred and home l depart;
To see thy proud stripes waving calamity DER me,
Would quicken my footsteps and gladden. my heart.
Beside the Atlantic our fathers victorious,
The star spangled banner in triumph ~display'd;
Shall not their sons plant il stainless and glorious
Where waves Of the noble Pacific are stayd!
In that far of-land, of savannas and mountains,
The spirit OF beauty IS abroad in the air 3.
Streamlets and waterfalls, w%ild-aowers and fountains
Are mingling their grandeur and loyeliness there.
1t is a bright gem-shalI Victoria wear iti
Shall Britain's fierce ensign stream DER it in pride |?
No, no, from the lion the eagle would tear it;
1t must be ours only whatever betide.
We know the deep hatred that England is breathing;
We know all her arts, all her treachery and guile
The poisonous chalice where roses are wreathing,
She fan would present with a kiss and a smile.
In burning HindOsian her banner is flying s.;
'Tis streaming alOft on dark Africas shore
Around it the breezes Of China are signing,
And still she is reaching and grasping for more.
Bat when we were weak and her chains were around US
Her acts Of oppression we dard to oppose;
Our forefathers sundered the shackles that bound US,
And liberty's day-star in splendor arose.
That star is undim'd and its light is still shining,
Beyond the bright skies Of our own favored shore
1t CLEANS where the vassals Of Europe are pining,
To throw off the letters their ancestors wore.
Though England may still be her conquests extending,
Ger hirelirgs that fight at a tyrant's command,
She never can conquer the fseemen, defending,
Their birth-right, their hearth-stOne, their dear native
land.
In Oregon children of fTeemen are dwelling
The tolls Of the perilous journey they've bIayed;
The blood Of their fathers their proud hearts is swelling
They're willing to die, but they can't be ensiaved.
No, no. starry Flag. we can never forget thee,
Till freedom is shrouded in tyrannys night;
Wherever we dwell we're determined to set thee,
And die or maintain thee unsullied and bright.
