ANG
Judge Battell arrived home last evening
from Terre Haute. Mr. Insle, who went
nm with the volunteers, had reached
Terre Haute. He left the Evansville COM
pany at their appointed stopping place in
excellent spirits, and exceedingly determined
on doing something. An abundance of
provisions, blankets, &c. had been sent from
Terre Haute for the accommodation of our
troops, SO that there is no danger of the
gallant saviors of their country either starv-
ing or freezing. Mr.. lngle was going to at
tend to that matter himself, if nothing had
been done.
Judge Battell informs us Gov. Wright did
not go to Terre Haute as he was requested
to do, but started Monday morning to Wash
ington. Gen. Dodd has the whole charge OF
affairs at the Reservoir, and from what we
can learn of him, we think him much better
qualified for the responsible position OF ar
ranging this difficult matter than the Gov
ernor, ana therefore feel rather pleased that
Gov. Wright has fed from the responsibility.
His head is safe, and should greatly crafty
loyal people!
Gen. Dodd arrived at Terre Haute from
the reservoir last Monday, and returned again
yesterday, to meet our troops. Judge Battel
says Gen. Dodd has strong hopes OF: comPro'
missing affairs, and concluding an amicable
, arrangement by which the canal and its
works will be secured from further annoy
ance-but this Is doubtful, and at the best
the promises of the mobocrats are rot con-
sidered worth much. They say they will
agree never to disturb things again, if anoth-
er lock is built, so chat the canal may be con.
tinued to the interior of the county-this
proving that the alledged cause of their riots
was base Tie. They are led by few scoun'
derlly property holders in the interior of the
county, beyond doubt.
Judge B. does not anticipate fight, but
he says Gen. Dodd is determined to have
things definitely settled in some way. There
are now three witnesses secured at Terre
Haute, who can identify the ringleaders ant
many others. Two are man and wife who
were turned out of their shanty before it wa.
burned. 1t and others were destroyed So
that they could not be used as shelter By
troops sent against them. The third wit
ness is a man who was lynched by tn,
scoundrels.
Laborers are now engaged in repairing
the aqueduct. 1t will be completed in
couple days, and the canal then be In run
ming order again, as we learn there i
plenty of water in it now. These are tn
; latest items of news from the Reservoi
region.

In the field of open and fair discussion we
are willing to stand the fire of the enemy,
and return him the best we've got. But
when it comes to throwing mud, we prefer
to withdraw, leaving him undisputed master
of the field. For this reason we long since
determined to have nothing to do with the
Madison Courier, aud few other papers of
the same stripe. They may call it retiring
behind our dignity or what MOTT don't
trouble US in the least.-[N A. 7rib.
That is precisely our opinion. and the
principle upon which we are acting in declin-
ing further discussion with certain paper
here. Oar sense of self.respect. has long re-
beled against controversies with men, who
do not hesitate a moment in uttering cool
and deliberate falsehoods, nor in Withholding
the utterance of those malicious and undg-
ni6ed epithets which never come from the
lips or pen of any but stepped blackguards
unacquainted with the courtesies which
mark the intercourse of gentlemen, or will
fully disregardful of them. We have never
had any pleasure in discussions with such
persons, nor have we deemed intelligent
readers could consider it our duty, even in
the defence of the right and the true, to con-
tinue discussions under such circumstances
But we have been in a manner forced into
them. as we hope never to permit ourself tc
be again. We have stopped the game, mol
is it in the power Of such an adversary as
we have had here, to secure further notice
from US, more especially by his continued
use of such language, as whatever its effect,
upon US, can but convince the community
that at least we have not declined discus
sion with a gentleman.

idea here in connection with his Bakery.
Persons can drop in there at any time, and

For big piece of pie, however sucn as

small price. We would commend this PIE

and wickedly stopped. We suggest to friend
Gaunt that he add glass of fresh milk to
that lunch, and call it dime!

SIX WEEKS CORN. OR FORTY Days
MAIZE. There have been received at the
Patent Office several bushels of forty days
Maize, or Indian Corn, from the south of
Spain, reported to ripen in six weeks after
planting. 1t is designed to be distributed
for experiment in the higher ATTITUDES of the
districts of the Allegheny and Rocky Noun
tains. From its analogy to some of our
own varieties of corn, there is no probability
of its succeeding, in any of tho warmer
parts of the country.-[ Washington Union.

OF It was to be presumed that some of
the old warm friends and admirers of Gen.
Jackson, were yet left in the Democratic
party. But if so, they must be few in
deed. The whole Old Line Locofoco party
has been exultng over the election of Wise,
in Virginia. Yet this same Wise, was one
of the iercest, most INSCRIPTIONS, most ma
hgnant political enemies ever Gen. Jackson
had! He wrote against Jackson, he spoke
against Jackson, and for years he scarcely
breathed political breath that had not en-
nifty to Jackson in it. And now old Jack
son men are shouting over Wise's election.
although his success was upon a reduced
democratic vote of five thousand.

PLATFORM OF THE AMERICAN PARTY OF
MIssIssIPPI.-The following appears official
y in the columns of the Natchez Miss
Courier:
We advocate such modification of the
naturalization laws as will remedy the exist
ing evils growing out of the same, or, in case
the purity of the elective franchise cannot
otherwise be preserved, then we advocate
their total repeal. sa-
We advocate the passage of stringent
law, by the proper authorities, to prevent the
emigration hither of foreigners who are eth
er paupers or criminals.
We shall vigorously maintain and defend
the vested rights of all persons, whether ma
tive or foreign born.
We believe America should be governed
by Americans, effecting the same through
the ballot box alone, the great and legitimate
instrument of all political reform in our coun-
try.
We oppose and protest against all abridge-
ment of religious liberty, holding it as a car
dnal maxim, that religious faith is question
between each individual and his God, and
that the Bible is the great fountain and de-
pository of the true religious doctrines of
this country.
We will maintain and defend the consttu-
ton of the United States as it is, the Union
as it was intended by our fathers, and the
rights of the States without diminution; ill.,
sistng upon and demanding faithful per.
Torrance by the General Government of all
the duties enjoined upon it by that constitu-
ton. $3.50 51
We war with no party as such, but OPP
pose all who oppose us in these great Ameri-
can doctrines.
The principles which we advocate, are
paramount to any local question of State
policy, and as the American party we will
make no attempt to revive the question ofthe
payment of the Union of Planters Bank
bonds. --. $500

UNITY OF RACEs-The celebrated philos.
opher and traveller, Humboldt, maintain.
the Christian and human doctrine of the
unity of the human species The follow
ing extract is from his last work, Cosmos
and is distinguished by noble spirit OF
humanity:
"Whllst we maintain the unity of the
human species, we at the same time repeal
the depressing assumption of superior and
more susceptible Of cultivation, more high
ly civilized, more ennobed by mental cul-
tivation than others; but none, in them
selves, nobler than others. All are in like
degree designed for freedom; freedom
which in the rude conditions of society be-
longs only to the individual, but which in
social States, enjoying political institutions
appertalns as a light to the whole body OF
the community.
"lfwe would indicate an idea which
throughout the whole course of history has
ever more and more widely extended its
empire, or which more than any other
testifies to the much contested and still
more decidedly misunderstood perfectbili-
ty OF the whole human race, it is that Of
establishing our common Hulnanity-of
striving to remove the barriers which pre-
judice and limited views of every kind have
erected amongst men, and to treat all man
kind, without reference to religion, nation,
or color, as one fraternity: fitted for one
object, the unrestrained development of
the physical powers. This is the ultimate
and highest aim Of society, identical with
the direction implanted by nature in the
mind of man towards the indefinite exten-
sion of his existence lie regards the
earth in all its limits, and the heavens as
far as his eyes can scan their bright and
starry depths, as inwardly his own, given
to him as the objects of his contemplation
and as field for the development of his
energies. Even the child longs to pass
the hills or the seas which enclose his mar
row home; yet when his eager steps have
borne him beyond those limits, he pines,
like the plant, for his native soil. and it is
by this touching and beautiful attribute OF
man-this longing for that which is un-
known, and thisfond remembrance of that
which is lost-that he is spread from an
exclusive attachment to the present Thus
deeply rooted in the innermost nature OF
man, and even enjoined upon him by his
highest tendencies, the recognition Of the
bond of Humanity becomes one of the

SwEARrNG.-The absurdity and utter
folly OF swearing is admirably set forth in
the following anecdote of Beelzebub and
his imps. The latter went out in the
morning, each 10 command his set of men
one the murderers, another the liars,
another the thieves, &c At evening
they stopped at the mouth of a cave
The question arose among them who com
manded the meanest set of men The
subject was debated at length, but without
coming to decision. Finally, his SataH-
ic Majesty was called upon to decide the
matter in dispute. Whereupon he said
The murderer got something for killing
the thief for stealing, and the liar for ly
ing, but the swcarer was the meanest OF
taem all-he served without pay'' They
were his majesty's best subjects, for while
they were costless, their name was legion
and presented the largest division in Sa
tan's employ.

TELEGRAPH TO lNDIA-The line of
electric telegraph, now terminating at
Constantlnople, is about to be extended to
British India. The Turkish government
have granted an exclusive concession for n
submarine telegraph from the DardanelIes
to Alexandria The cost will be 4I2O.-
000, and the line could be completed in
twelve months. An annual subsidy of
1900 for twenty years is to be paid by
Turkey for the transmission of official
messages; the communications from In
dla will be accelerated from five to six
days when this and the general sSstem Of
teiegraphs now constructing in European
Turkey shall have been completed. At
the same time proposals are on foot>for
extending the project to Iudia by carrying
the communication via Suez and Aden!to
kurrachee at the mouth of the Indus.
where it would connect with the lines al
ready in operation, or in course of con
struction by the East India companv
throughout the various Prcsidences. The
total length from the Dardancllcs to Kur-
rachee is about 1000 miles, and the sum
required for the whole, including the sub
marine line to Alexandria would be
g4,000,000. Application has been made
to the ludia House for support, in the
shape of Sl50, 900 year, subject to re-
ductlon in proportion to the ultimate sue
cess of the undertaking. The entire line
IN India may, it is estimated be completed
In two years.
