We have frequently called attention to this imPor-
tant structure and its precarious situation has at
length caused the public authorities to take action in
this matter. We understand that the commissioners
have authorized the expenditure of five hundred dol
lars provided the citizens subscribe the like
We learn that about half the amount has been sub
scribed. We also learn that some temporary repairs
are also being made to the pier; but we have not
learned that any competent engineer has examined
the work. whether this halfway business will not
be so much money thrown away. One thing is GER
tain the old pier is of account at ALL and never
was built as it should have been. 1t would seem to
us to be the most advisable plan, to securely trussle
the bridge, least till next spring and it, in the
mean time, the citizens will not voluntarily come
forward and subscribe the balance, let toll be estab
lished; and there is not doubt bat sufficient would
be collected to repair the bridge it should be- In
decd we believe the amount of tolls which could be
collected in six months would build complete new
pier of the best hewn stone. As it is not loaded
team passes the bridge but at extreme danger. We
hope it will be carefully looked to, and prompt and
efficient action taken in the matter.

ner, with MIR. Kane, about writing an, letter on the
tariff, any other subject, to Mr.. Polk. The whole
story, as we have heretofore said is basey false.
And now, we ask, what appear to be the facts of
the case! That the correspondent OF the Mercury,
who has issued such fables and gross misrepresent-
tons In the form Of letters from this city, is Cyril "
Grey. We are glad that we have the opportu-
nifty OF exposing the author Of these letters to the
Charleston Mercury. And who is Cyril V. Grey |!
An EnglIshman who has been in the United States
but three or four yearshas never been naturalizcd
in the United States, and at this moment alleg-
ance to the crown of Great Britain. And has come
TO this,-that Struggling Englishman, owing no al
legance to the United States, but having IL NAV be-
all the feelings, sympathies, and opinions of Eng
llshman shall be pensoned a hired writer of let
ters stationed at Washington by such paper as the
Charleston Mercury, to send forth daily his base cal
umnes upon the government of the United States and
its public functionaries In charity TO the Charles
ton Mercury, we cannot believe that it could have
known the true character of the foreign instrument it
has employed TO SANDER and misrepresent Mr.. Polk
his administration, and his friends. At all events it
is proper that leading democratic friends in the
South, and throughout the Union, should know who
the instrument is who has been thus employed. We
ask the proud and gifted frends of MIR. Calhoun
how long the Charleston Mercury will abuse their
patience by such reckless msstatements or how long
they will suffer the Mercury to abuse their confidence
We say further to the American people, how long
will they suffer morbid curiosity after not what is
true, but after what is circulating in the kennels of
this city, to be gratfed by such gross msrepresenta-
tons! 1t is for them to determine.
We owe an apology, perhaps, TO Mr.. Reverdy John
son, FOR publishing his name in connexion with so
gross fabrication, We do not suppose him capable
of making unfounded statement. But if we were
to mutIlate Cyril V. Grey's communication, he might
make it subject of complaint, and perhaps of at
tack and if zee did not publish Mr.. Johnsons name
why c. " G.. would-UNIoN.

wabasI, and Erie Canal.

The Fort Wayne Sentinel has the following remarks
relative 10 providing sufficient supply Of water for
that important work, the Wabash and Erie Canal
We have no doubt that the suggestion will enlist the
early attention of those to whose care the matter is
entrusted.
"Seyeral of the papers in the state are directing
public attention to the necessity which exists for
serSoir to supply the Wabash and Erie Canal with
ter during the dry The experience of the
present year has fully demonstrated that the feeders
on which we now rely insufficient to supply the
canal and to keep in navgable order through the
summer it is indispensable to have a reservoir con-
structed at some convenient point the summit level
This was pointed out by the Chief Engineer some
years ago, and survey was accordingly made for a
reservoir on the Aboite River The proposed site
was found favorable for the purpose and reservoir,
furnishing ample supply, could be there construct
ed at expense not exceeding 500, 000-a mere tri
e in comparison with its vast utility. The need of
such work is now so manifest, and urgent, that
it would be criminal in those TO whose charge the in
erests of the are conded longer to delay taking
the necessary steps for its construction.

Indiana is remarkable for no large city, or even
considerable town, which acts centre Ut COM
merce, and stmulant of capital The consequence Isl
that has much less money capital, in proportion to
It's population, than other of the United States
Heretofore its growth has been Agricultural and that
too, not much assisted by public improvements /.
The completion of the White Water Canal-the
completion of the Ohio part of the Wabash Canal
and the rapid progress of the Madison Railroad, with
other Improvements, will, in cur opinion, cause a
more rapid progress Of population, in few years to
come, than has taken place in the last BALI dozen
The growth Of population in Indians being chiefly
Agricultural, it has grown most where Agricultural
advantages were most found, in the goodness and
cheapness of the SOIL and the facilities Of transPorta1

obvious. The rich prairies, the Wabash Canal, and

The South and t,,e West.

On the 4th day of July last, convention was held
at Memphis, Tenn, the leading object of which was,
to awaken and stimulate public attention to the long
neglected wants of the South and the West This
convention, from want of timely and uniform no.
tice extensively published was thinly attended !;
though much and important discussion was elected,
and an intense zeal aroused behalf of the proposed
objects. 1t was adjourned to the 18th day of
November, 1S45 at the same place.
Among the objects which will primarily engage
the attention of this convention, may be mentioned
The Atlantic and Mississippi Rail Road the Great
Ship Canal, connecting the Illinois River with Lake
Michigan; the National Turnpike Road through the
State of Arkansas the National Road through Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois the Military and Naval De-
fences of the South and West; &c. &C. &c. 1t is
expected that the convention will studiousy avoid
every thing which will tend to excite or influence
party sympathies and that the action of the Nation
al Authorities viii be sought and urged only in cases
where there is an entire unanmiiy of sentiment as
to the powers conferred upon the General Govern
ment.
We therefore propose that every one who has the
interests of country at heart especially those OF
the neglected southern and western States, will en-
deavor to meet at Memphis the day appointed
Why cannot our Congressman go-all of them
Those who have the means and the desire, can accom-
pish much. 1t is matter which should not be lost
sight of one moment We hope contemporaries
will urge immediate attention to the subject in their
various districts that voice shall go forth from
that convention awakening all to the immense value
of these interests and which will not fail of fixing
permanently policy which shall remain as lasting
the hills, and give to this portion Of common
country that justice which its great and growing in
terests demand.

CATHOLIC Bishop CONDEMNED To DEATH.-At-
tempted Rescue.-The United States frgate Constitu
ton, Captain Percival, her passage from Borneo
TO Canton, put into Turin Bay, Cochin China to ret
and repaint the ship. The authorities prohibited in
tercourse with the people. Mandarins on board
and letter was secretly delivered, purportng TO be
from a FreDchman of the name of LIE Fevre, who
signed himself Bishop of Isanriopes and Apostolic
Vicar of Cochin China, stating that he had been
seized by the government put in irons and condemn
ed to death. The Mandarns had returned to the
Shore before the contents of this letter
tanned when Captain P. determined to demand the
Bishop, in person, and proceeded shore with an
armed force. As he could get answers, nor sight
of the highest chief Mandarin he seized three of
the Mandarins, and took possession, with three of the
ships boats, of three of their junks. The gun
boats fed at the approach of our boats and the SOL
diers much frightened and fled when our men
charged them. The jnnks and Mandarins were SUBJ
sequently released. The Boston Atlas, from which
obtain these particulars, does say whether the
Bishop was released.

The war Of the Anti-AIormons seems to have been
brought to sudden close by the promptness and
courage of the Sheriff of Hancock county He rails
ed sufficient posse and the burners fled. He visit
ed Warsaw and Carthage, but made arrests. They
then retired and encamped. The Ants have mostly
crossed the river, and peace for the present is some
what restored. There is saying what these reck-
less men may yet do; but we hope that the Governor
will take every necessary step to bring the offenders
to justice and protect the innocent.
