The editor of The Cincinnati Chronicle, leading
Whig paper in the West. stigmatizes Truman Smiths
letter to the Wings of Indiana, stimulating them by
hopes of place. &C., " ridiculous and disgusting
manifesto, compound Of egotisn impudencs, folly
and partisan Serriiity, uacorthy The dignity nf a
gentleman.'
But the Indiana Journal zealously defends Smith,
and maintains that his promises to give the wings
and better Offices. if they would send wings to
Congress. was all perfectly pure, gentlemanly and
right
Well; We suppose this difference of opinion be-
tween these two whg editors depends their esti-
mate of the character Of their own party and its
leaders.
The one thinks it dsgraceful to be offered such
brbes for such purposes the other thinks it all per-
fecily right and proper
We should be sorry TO admit, that we ourselves
had higher respect for the Wing party of Indiana,
than to suppose them willing TO approve of the
of Truman Smith.

nominated POLITICAL is necessarily changed although that
which regulates the intercourse and general conduct OF nd
vduals remains in force until altered by the newly created
power Of the State"
Again, in the same case, page 544, he uses this
language:
"It has been already stated that all the laws which

1t will be observed that Chief Justice Marshall dis
eliminates between ihe laws regulating ihe relations
of the people 10 eacl. other, and those which
polti al, which concerned the relations between the
people ard their sovereign. The former, he says,
continued in force but the latter he expressly ex

his creature, Gen. Riley, therefore illegal utterly

Government creatures of that Sovereignty, de-
riying their sole authority from its power. The mo-
menf the territory became ours, that moment Mexi-
can sovereignty ceased, the Government it had
aed in California Terminated the officers whom it
had authorized at dvested of their official
character The People Of California no longer re-
cognized them. But Gen. Taylor, on his accession
TO power, cooy attempts to resuscate this old form
of Government, and to recognise the old ofcers--in
other words, he, without warrant from the Constiu
tion of the United States, re-creates Mexican form
of Government for California, re-appoints the old
officers, and commands the army to sustain these his
own creatons-and all this power is usurped in full
view of the fact that the Legislative Department of
tie Government, the sole legitimate source of gov
ernment in California under Constitution, had
fused to confer upon him any such power. When did
General Jackson James K Polk venture on

his right hand his left cenchng the iron railing, then
adjusting pair of gold spectacles his forehead
and bowling the auditory, who emitted few sickly
cheers akin to the chirpings of brood of chickens
with the pip, Gen. Taylor spoke word for word, as
follows:

o. LOUIE, august los L. m.
There was n discovery Of deficit in gold on Sat
urday last, in the Bank Of Missouri, of S12D,70O.
The disclosure has caused excitement, though
the solvency Of the Bank is not affected.
On Friday it seems a heavy draft was presented by
Page and Bacon, in paying which tie paying teller
resorted some boxes conta nng foreign coin These
boxes together with others, had been laid aside for
the purpose Of having the contents recoined, but the
keys the vault containing the American coin having
been temporarily misplaced the boxes containing the
foreign coin were resorted to. On opening the first
box bag Of ten ihaler pieces was missed; frm an
other a bag Of soveregns was gone, and SO on The
Teller gave information to the President and the d.
rectors were assembled on Saturday when it was dis
covered that from fhirty-three boxes of coin which
had been counted and sealed up last March, one hun
dfed and twenty thousand hundred dollars bad
been absiracted. Only the foreign gold has been
counted fer. but thorough examination was tn
take place to day. II is thought the deslcaon will
not be found materially greater Suspicion immedl-
atey rested the late paying Teller, Nathaniel
Childs, Jr He was arrested and held to bail in the
sum Of thirty thousand dollars. until Wednesday.
when further Investigations viii be made. Bail was
furnished but the accused is not permitted to leave
his residencp. He has heretofore been universally
esteemed and was the head Of the Sabbath Schools
of the city. He has also been officer Of the Bank
since it's foundation.

RAILRoAD.-The State Sentinel in speaking Of the
Knightstown and Rushyille Railroad commits an un-
intentional error no doubt.
''The Shebyvile and Rushville road, 19i miles
long, is nearly ready for the rails. Shelbyville and
Knightstown road, % miles, will be ready for the
iron lst of March next for the last two roads rails
have been purchased
The fact Is the iron has not only been obtained,
but there are several Steam Mills on each line max
ing lumber for the tracks and the superstructure is
being put down with great rapidity-tbe cars will
run from Shelbyville to Morristown the one line
and 20 Manila the other before winter, each 10
miles from Shelbyve. The Knightstown Company

We give the following by request. OF the facts
we know nothing But we do know that it is very
rare case that fault is found with the contractors
the route in question. They have. indeed, the gen.
eral reputation of being the most gentlemnnly and

that friend Spence may not be aboring under
wrong impression. However, he makes his
statement; and the people will Judge of the matter.
Caution TO the Travelling Public.
Having business indianapolis short time since,
paid my stage fare, $3 5O to the proper agent at Cow
ngton, and had my regularly entered on The way
bill. Unfortunately, at Crawfordsville chose to stop
al another than the public house which the stageoce
is kept however without giving notice TO that agent
of my stopping place, (Ingersolls) was left by the
stage solely BECAUSE believes the Shylock avarce OF
the agent lost the sale of twenty-five cents worth OF pro-
conS;,ion was is TO find nv way 10 Indianapolis as best
l coud-in which succeeded by hiring private con-
veyance. After arriving at Indianapolis, made known
my to the agent there upon which was in
formed that when my business done, my name
should be entered for Covngon free of charge in consid-
Grafton of my expenses accruing from my bad treat
mcnt at Crawfordsvie. Again was doomed TO dissP-
pointmen as my failed to be registered among the
passengers for Covngton, and again Left to seek my
way home best could, which did by private con-
veyence. My object in making public my treatment, Is
that having business this line may be prepared
to a landlord at Charlottesville, stage agents
and contractors who havc no compunctons IN hiching
either directly indirectly from the unsuspecting travel
ler or to CRAFTY low, groveng spirit OF envy towards
rival landlord would doom traveller to vexaiion ex-

One word more in reference 10 the agents. Some OF
my friends in Indianapolis referred me to one Campbell
