politics, has this incidental alluson home policy,
by way of Illustration. We think there some truiI,

The official terms Of all the Offices in Indiana this
year TO come under review, and we hope to the
people determine for short Five years for Judges
and two years for other offices general, we should
think would be long enough. "Tbe frequent recur-

liberty" But to the extract

two years. it would be better; for then the people
would be more independent of extraordinary power

foolish old tradition exists in favor of long official
terms tending to stability. Just the is the
fact Frequent changes of men in power lessen
due authority and produce steadiness by of the

DAILY MAIL, SoUTH.-The Bedford Standard of
the 24tb contains article in favor of daily mail
from Indianapolis TO New Albany which is worthy of
public attention. The Herald says
"By reference to the map Of the State it will be
seen that the counties of Orange Lawrence. Monroe
Morgan, and Marion, constitute very fertile portion
of our territory and that the citizens residing therein
are progressing in all the various pursuits Of indus

is situated 45 miles from Paoli, and about 90 from In
dianapois, and numbers we believe some 200 or
1500 inhabitants. A large number of young men
from various PORTIONS of the State. well as from
other States patronze this institution, and hence there
is consequently great deal of travel to aud from that
place The complaints we have often and repeatedly
heard uttered by strangers who have desired to visit
the State University, well as the seat OF govern
ment, who reside in the south, account of the
want Of public cOnyeyances, warrants us IN the oPI-
ion that the regulation sought to be established is one
demanded by every consideration of public justice

Of the people of Orange. Lawrence. Monroe. Morgan
and Marion contiguous the route contemplated, to
unite with US in urging this matter upon tie especial
attention Of the Department at Washington"

Highly Important from Washington--Do-
feat OF the Texan boundary Bill In the
House.

HOUSE.
We regret to inform our readers that the Texan
Boundary bill was defeated yesterday in the House
Of Representatives, by vote of l07 to SO, on a
motion to pass il to a third reading. We are at a
loss to conceive the reasons that influenced men,
bers to vote as they did, and defeat one of Sc
Yies of measures which, when they were sane
toned by the Senate, were hailed by the public
generally as hsrbingers Of peace, and providing
The means of adjusting question which has
caused great deal Of excitement throughout the
republic. We can find no reason for such a course
except party one, viz that as several elections
are about to be held in different States, men,
bers were afraid to act free agents, or TO use
their own discretion. Forgetting the reaction that
has taken place in public opinion the question Of
slavery since the meeting of Congress, they voted
in accordance with the sentiment of their constitu
ents il was some months since. greater mistake
was never committed; and il we not very much
mistaken, the gentlemen who voted'in opposition to
the bill wall yet find il out-perhaps when too late
There has been great deal of pettifogging in the
House, this session, on this subject, as well as on
Others; and some members may discover that
instead of forwarding their political interests by
the course they have pursued, they have done the
reverse. "Look 20 the Senate" was at one time
the watchword; but il is changed. "Look TO the
Mouse, isnowthe cry, asfar the slavery queston
a concerned Some new plan Of settlement must OF
course now be proposed by that body; for we can
hardly think that they will dare to adjourn with
out disposing Of this unfortunate question We shall
probably CLEAN some intelligence on the subject
to-day
The Senate passed the Post Office Appropria
tion bill, with some amendments, and also bill
establishing a line of mail steamers between New
Orleans, Vera Cruz, and Tampico. From present
appearances, we do not believe that the Civil and
Diplomatic Appropriation bill will be passed by thi:
body until the slavery question be settled We
hope not.
