Indian Nnmea.

Some of our very American authors have in
sisted that the old Indian names places should
be preserved by us whites wherever they are
known. The proposition is an exceedingly ri
diculous one, for the general run of Indian
names are not only unpronouncable by us, but
more foreign to our tongues than Greek or
Sanscrit. We have no objection to such fine
sounding names as Niagara, Ohio, Onatorlo,
and Manahatta; but these are the gems of abo-
riginal nomenclature; the great staple Of Indian
names are to the last degree repulsve TO Eng
lish ears and English tongues. For example,
we saw letter the other day, written in the
State of Maine, and dated at Mullechunke-
munk; and, in the course Of few brief lines,
alluson was made to the following localities
in the neghborhood, where the ground seems
to have been strewn with aboriginal appella-
tions: Umbagog, Ocwossock, Mooselamaquin-
tic, Cupsuptuck, and other similar names that
are as unsuted to our mouths as Indian orna-
ments would be to our ears and noses. For
our own part, we think the further we get from
the Indians in our language and habits, the bet
ter it will be for us. In fact, nearly all the
find-sounding Indian names that we have be-
slowed upon our country have been anglicised
before they were rendered easy to the tongue
or pleasant TO the ear.

The Whig Convention for the purpose of
nominating candidate to represent the Fourth
District in Congress was held at Alexandria
(Rapides Parsh) on the 28th ultimo. Two
candidates were proposed-JoHN MOORE, of St.
Martin, and JOHN RAY, of Ouachita. The
president of the convention (OLyER ID. STILL
MAN of Ouachita) read letter from Mr.. RAY,
Withdrawing his name as candidate. JOHN
MOORE, of St. Martin, was then nominated by
accamation. The convention unanimously
adopted the following preamble and resolu-
tions:
Whereas, the late war with Mexico, which shed
80 much ustre on our arms, and resulted in such
immense acquisitions of territory, left national
councils embarrassed with several questions of
delicate and dangerous character, calling for the
utmost sagacity, foresight and forbearance on the
part of our statesmen in Congress, and in the ad-
ustment of which they have displayed, in the Sen
ate chamber q degree of wisdom and patriotism
commensurate with the skill and valor of our great
chieftans and brave soldiers in the field; and where
as, by the adoption by the last Congress, after
protracted and angry discussion which had aroused
the approximations of the friends Of the Union for s
safety ofthe series Of measures known the 'Com-
promise, - the clouds which had darkened our po-
litical horizon have been happily dispcrsed and
harmony restored in our distracted councils; there
fore
l. Be IL Resolued, That do heartily approve
the legislation above referred to- and give all honor
and praise to the enlightened and patriotic Senators
and Representatives of whatever party locality,
who, having originated and carried through these
measures Of concilation and compromise, have, in
our iudgmcnt deserycd we'll of their country
2. That we are opposed to and will discountc-
nance disunion and secession in any and every
shape, whether from the North or South; and that
we regard the preservation of the Union Of the
States as a sacred and permanent duty, which we
owe to ourselves and to posterity, to whom
God helping US, VIC will transmit unimpaired the
noble heritage bequeathed by the fathers of the
Constitution.
3. That we have the fullest confidence in the pa
triotism, frmness, and ability Of MILLARD FILL
MORE, the President of the United States, in whom
we have for our Chief Magistrate, not ga northern
man with southern principles" but northern
man with national principles, who in the admins
tration Of his high office will know no North, no
South, no East no West; but whose comprehen-
siye patriotism is large enough to embrace his
] whole country.
4. That we ardently desire to established and
! prosecuted by the General Government judicious
system, Of internal improvement, which we deem
especially important for the northwest, whose great
natural resources require imperatively, for their
| proper and speedy development, the establishment
of such system; and that desire also the insti
tuition Of specific duties, or an ad valorem
rnent upon the home valuation for the present mode
OF assessing duties upon the values in the foreign
markets.

WASHINGTON:
FRIDAY MORNING. AUGUST Is. 1851.


''Theseries of measures TO which have alluded
are regarded by me settlement, in principle
and substance-a final settlement-ofthe danger
Gus and exciting subjects which they embraced"
"By that adjustment we have been rescued from
= the wide and boundless agitation thatsurrounded
us, and have firm, distinct, and legal ground
to rest upon. And the occasion, trust, will jus
tify me IN ExHoRTING NY couNTRyMES TO RALLY
UPON AND MAINTAIN THAT GROUND as the best, il
not the only means, of restoring peace and quiet
to- the country and maintaining inviolate thein-
tegrity of the Union.''
[PREsIDENr FILLMoRE's MESSAGE.
"The Presidents message, at the opening of the
present session of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion of all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
'istration of the Government, in regard to what
are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea
sures of last session. That opinion is, that those
measures. should be regarded in principle as
hnalsettlement of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from imperfections, yet, in their
neutrality-suspicious. and conneIion, they formed
'a system of compromise the most conciatory
and beat for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
sopinions, and that therefore they should be ad-
shered to, until time and experience should de-
smonstrate the necessity of further legislation to
guard against evasion or abuse Thatopinion, 30
far as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace ofthe country requires this; the security OF
the Constitution requires this; and everyconside-
ration of the public good demands this. If the
Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message it does not expect to stand at all"

"THE MODEL ARcHrTEcT'' is the title of work
now issuing in numbers monthly, at fifty cents q
part, by Samuel Sloan & Co., architects, Philadel-
phia. 1t contains original designs, beautifully
Autographed, for cottages, villas, and suburban
residences, accompanied by explanations, specifi-
cations, estimates, and elaborate details. 1t is also
enriched with highly -coored specimens of encaus-
tic and tesselated flooring tiles, ofvarious patterns
which will doubt take the place of marble floors,
costing only about one-half the price, and having
a much more beautiful effect.
Messrs. Taylor s. Maury, booksellers, near 9th
street, are the agents for Washington city, and,
without going further into notice of the work, we
would advise all interested in architecture to call
and examine the numbers already published.

QUEEN VIoroRIA AND YANKEE DooDLE.-That
glorious old fashioned mleody, which for the sew
entyi five years of our national existence has never
yet failed to awaken throb of patriotic exutation
in the breast of every American who has heard it
at home or abroad, has lately, il would seem, tas-
cinated the cars of royalty. correspondent OF
the New York Spirit of The Times, writing recently
from London, says:
"Her Majesty Qeen Victoria and the royal con-
sorts have been extremely attentive TO the United

A few days ago she present, and Mr.. Pirsson,
Of New York city, who has large double grand
piano in the American division, somehow or other
lorestalled his neighbors by getting wind OF her
coming, and engaged four splendid performers,
and had them all waiting. As her majesty ap-
preached down the grand aisle, he gave signal,
and they struck up Yankee Doodle with varia-
tions, much to the queens admiration, for she
leaned on the arm of the prince and waited until
il was over. Prison, with shrewd discrimination,
saw by the pretty smiles that lit up her majesy's
face that che was pleased with the national idea,
and Immediately there was an encore. With the
promptness of Julien, he jumped upon the plat
FORM seized cane, and using il for baton, re-
commenced that same good old air. and his per-
formers dashed through IL, executing the sparkling
but difficult variations with a force and elegance
that again enchaned the royal presence, and ell-
cited the cheers and vivas Of the whole assembly.

''The idea that any defect in the law, or any in
competency in its executives, can be remedied by
voluntary associations Of citizens assuming su-
perioriy to the law, is not only preposterous, but
implies abrogation of all laws, and resolves So
ciety into state of perfect anarchy"
"With these views, feel impelled by the strong
est sense OF official duty and by every considera-
ton for our common welfare and public character,
TO call upon all citizens to withdraw from such
associations, and to unite in common effort to
support the laws, and to sustain prompt and
energ getic administration of them in their proper
application and action"
The verdict Of the coroners jury in the case OF
Stuart follows:
'sThe deceased came TO his death by strangua-
ton by hanging, at the hands of body oi men
styling themselves the Vigilance Committee oil San
Francisco
Judge Campbell at the opening 81 the court OIL
session, convened the grand jury, and stated that
every person who in any manner acted alded'
abetted, or assisted in taking Stuarts life, or coun-
seled or encouraged his death, was undoubtedly
puilu Of murder, and closed his charge as follows;
"IJron vour fearless and faithful discharge of
the sacred trust conided to you depends in great
measure the future peace, order, and tranquility
of the community"

;nterposiiion terrific harvest must follow the
