Grader, resident of this city, who has Just re-
turned from Nashville, has placed upon our ia
bic specimens Of lead ore-and white marble,
found upon his land about FIVE miles from Nash
vile. The marble is a clear white and without
veins, and admits of a polish unsurpassed by
any other, kind. This was discovered in bed
OF unknown dimensions, and is from fifteen to
twenty feet in depth. The lead ore will weld
an average Of 85 to IS per cent, and is pro
nouneed of no ordinary kind, besides Welding
its usual quantunl of silver Some of the ore
taken from the surface, and melted oyer an or
binary fire, has yielded 95 per cent.

VENEzUELA.-By the arrival of bark Venus
at New York, from Curacao, we have received
advices from Venezuela to March. In conse-
quence of a serious destruction of property be-
longing to the Dutch residents at Vile de Coro,
by the inhabitants of Coro, some six months
back, the Dutch naval West India fleet are at
present at Laguayra, to demand restitution for
the above damages. On the sailing Of the We
nus they had not come to terms. In the event
of Venezuela not satisfying the above claims,
the Dutch commodore has orders to blockade
the Venezuelan port and declare warm which
case there will be no more shipments ofproduce
from the Main. The issue is doubtful On the
26th of February, his excellency, R. V. Van
Landsberge was proclaimed governor Of Cura-
Goa and its dependencies, with imposing cere-
monies.

1t is well knewn fact to any one acquaiat-
ed in New Orleans, that the offices are appor-
toned out BY agreement, between the Irish,
Germans and Americans. Sometimes gold in
hand has powerful influence. A few years
ago, the almost entire democratic German vote
was purchased BY wing candidate for a high
Office, and we have no doubt butthe very large
amount OF money expended on the occasion,
tended in measure to cause his defalcaton.

rrzing to Green out Of obpouritv.

1t appears by card in yesterdays Enqui-
rer, that the Sheriff is still exceedingly sore
on the subject of Conrad Baker, Esq. He has
a right to be. Judge Bakerhas proved before
this public, that Gavitt deliberately, openly
and before large assembly, testified to false
hood. Gavitt made himself the toady OF the
brawling blackguard now heading the Demo-
cratic ticket in this State, and in compliance
with this Wizards request, arose before an
audience in Newburg, and declared that Judge
Baker in the course of a trial in this city, had
advocated the 'higher law abolition doctrine
Judge Baker obtained the certificates Of the
Judge Of the Court, and of his opposing at
torney in the case, Jas. E. Blythe, Esq, that
vocated any such doctrine, as that imputed to
him. He introduced these certificates in a
public speech, and we published them. Thus
was the Sheriff arragned before this commu-
nity and publicly proven shameless falsiiier
and slanderer Sore to the heart by this ex-
posture, and by the unmerciful skinning he re-
ceived at the hands of Judge Baker in his
speech, he is now exhibiting his soreness to
the public by parading a document signed by
a few political enemies Of Baker, signfying
that he advocated the higher law" doctrine
in Warrck county two years ago in law
case We leave this matter in the hands Of
Judge Baker himself, merely remarking, that
if it were proved he advocated the abolition
higher law doctrine elsewhere, Mr.. Gavitt
cannot clear himself from having uttered an
open and vile falsehood, in his Newburg charge.
help the Sheriff creep out of his present po-
litical obscurty from which unaided he can
never emerge.

ONE VOTE. The Importance of one vote has
often been illustrated and every voter ought to
be impressed with the conviction of the i'm
perative duty of voting in every important
election. In Rhode Island they say the last
war with England was brought upon the coun-
try by Sam Jones' pig invading his neighbor
Smiths garden. Smith was a candidate for
the Legislature. Jones and he had been poIit-
ical friends. But quarrel arose between
them about the depredations of the pig. and
Jones' vote defeated Smith, and Smiths de-
feat secured the election of Democratic u.
S. Senator; and that Senator's vote carried the
war measures of the administration in Con-
grass.

Candidates for Congress.

Messrs. Veatch and Lockhart addressed our
citizens according to appointment on Saturday
afternoon. Mr.. Veatch opened in clear, man
ly and open avowal of his opinions upon the
questions now agitating the public mind. He
is in favor of the construction of Pacific
Railr0ad--of a restoration of the Missouri
Compromised sustaining the Compromises
of the Constitution-and opposed to any
change in the naturalization laws, and to all
prescription on account of religious belief or
creed. In speech of an hour and quarter,
Mr.. Veatch ably and most satisfactorily sus-
tanned his opinions. No man. who heard Mr..
Veatch, could have any doubt as to his posi-
ion or opinions, upon any Of the great Ques-
tons. He is shrewd ingenious man-tal-
ented and gentlemanly in his intercourse with
his opponent, but enforces his conclusions in
firm and convincing manner. lie wins very
rapidly upon the good graces Of his audience !;
and no man, be he friend or opponent, who
hears him, can go away without entertaining
the most favorable opinion of Mr.. v as a gem
tteman and public speaker lie readily per
ceives an advantage in his opponents argu-
ment, and exposes it with GOODNESS and an
art that is truly refreshing Mr.. " made
many friends by his visit here, and if he gave
Lockhart as COOL political thrashing at every

have no doubt he did, James c. Veatch will
be the next Representative in Congress from
the first Congressional District of Indiana
Mr. Lockhart tloundared through an hour,
in speech which was a miserable abortion.-
He read about one-h half of one number of the
Missouri Republican, several pages of the An
nails of Congress-, and two or three letters of
Jefferson, Adams, &c, and miSapplied the
whole Of them, and topped off with in appeal
to the Fillmore He said that the friends of
Mr.. Fillmore and the " National Democratic
party occupy precisely the same grounds
upon the subject Of slavery, and hence they
ought to come over and vote for hun for Con-
gress Lockhart is the same man who was
egged out of Daviess county for abusing the
Know Nothings and now he comes over here
in Knox and courts the votes Of these Know
Nothings
The meeting adjourned shouting for Veatch.
