Most difficult nded is the position in which the repub
Lie is placed On whatever side cast our eyes,
nothing but arbitrary acts injustice dsorders and
misfortunes.
The cities which have not taken up the cry Of any
party remain detected SILENT and Disguised there is no
enthusiasm among the Masses composing the people
and the sad which reach from unfortunate
counrymen the frontiers, is received with sinister
smile. the precursor Of desperation.

The downfall Of Paroles is made seems the occasion

AFFAIRS IN NAuvoo. The N1c Era of the 18th
instant Says" We noticed yesterday on board
the steamers Ocean Wave and Potosi, which arrived
from Keobuk, between twelve and fifteen families of
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT and children-who have been com
PEELED to leave their homes in Nauvoo, from the length
to which hosties have been carried in that vicinity
Many ofthem resided in portion OF the town now
occupied by the Antics and to preserve their lives they
have had TO flee with but little Of their household goods
and several with nothing than few articles of
wearing apparel Those on the Ocean Wave were en-
trely destitute Of means and to this city with the
hope of meeting some friends who will relieve their
necessities That their danger was imminent there
be no mistake several articles Of furniture in
their possession which had been pierced by balls while
in their houses Nsuvoo The roof OF house occupied
by one OF the families shot away by cannon ball
and several others had leave their homes amidst tho
and danger which threatened them, from the hrng
of the conendng parties. The heads Of the families
which have arrived here still in Nauvoo, and in the
ranks of the force assembled to protect the city The
wives and children sad specimens OF detection and
bear upon their faces all the marks OF abigo
ed and prosecuted people. That such state OF things
should exist in republican and civilized community
stigma upon the whole country, and disgrace 10 the
particular State in which such outawry is suffered and
we may say sanctioned by her executive officers.

1t will be perceived by the report OF our Les'sia-

that the bill to provide for the funded debt OF the STATE
of Indiana, and for the completion OF the aoash
and Erie canal TO Evansville, was, late on yesterday
evening. ordered to be engrossed for third reading,

wholly occupied in the discussion OF this bill for the
past two days on an amendment referring the bill, If
passed TO the people for confirmation. On Yesterday
afternoon it was ascertancd that this amendment
would be adopted, when another proposition was
agreed by MIR. Butler, which lie would not consent
to before relieving the pghted faith of the State al
together from one half of our public debt, on which
not paying interest, and looking alone to the
canal for its payment. Our outstanding bonds to
be taken up and five per cent bonds to be ISSUED
for half the debt, ana canal certificates for the
other half A number of members voted against the
bill solely the ground that it not referred to
the people for confirmation.
