For Southern Watchman.
Mr. Editor: As the season is fast
approaching, and now is, when the peo
ple of the various districts will be con
vening lor the purpose of nominating
for the different offices, we -would like
to say one word in reference thereto.
Now, sir, this thing of selecting can
didates, heretofore, has been done about
in this wise : A handful of the “ rag-tag
and bob-tail” of each militia district
have gotten together, frequently in the
back-room of a groggery, under the su
pervision of some aspiring *‘ bully,” or
some other equally forward and objec
tionable character, and nominated those
who would condescend to pay for such
votes as are cast by the ** impounded,”
bloated, reeling and disqualified wretch
es who call themselves freemen. Such
gatherings disperse and publish to the
world that the people have done so and
so, when, God knows, it were belter to
have said dogs had done it.
Why, sir, the impression was made
upon inymind, from nay earliest recol
lection, that good honest citizens and
Christians should keep away from such
places. To a very large extent, this
has been the course pursued, and all
sucH arrangement* have therefore been
left in the hands of a few clever citizens,
doubtful cha.ac ers, drunken natives
and jabbering foreigners. This ought
not so to be. And we call upon alt
good men—Christian or 110 Christian—
Minister anil layman, politician or no
politician, to take such matters into their
own hands, and thereby secure h mest
nominations, fa thful and capable offi
cers.
Farmers, mechanics, laborers, mer
chants, doctors, (lawyers we leave out
of the list, from pundeniial motives.)
and even gentlemen, will please consider
and act.
Un'ess the ** good and true” do take
this matter in hand, we may look for a
continuation of the notorious corrup
tions of the past.
If there is i.o risponse to this, be it
understood—we shall spring Woman’s
Rights, and urge that she be allowed to
select from the patriotic “ lovers of the
dear people,” the candidates, and we
believe, shall be able to carry it; and if
•so, for one of the fattest berths, I know
who is certain to vote for me.
Yours, with a true regard for the dear
•people. K, N. t D.
A dispatch from Washington says :
“It is an error to suppose that the
French Spoliation claims are effectual-
iy smothered by the veto. If the House
should pass the Senate bill for the es
tablishment of a Court for the adjudica
tion of claims upon the Government, the
claims under the vetoed bill can move
■before this Court de novo. If a legal
tribunal, such as the one proposed,
should decide in favor of the claimants,
•no further interposition need be antici
pated from the Executive.”

FIERCE BATTLES WITH THE INDIANS !
Baltimore, Feb. 24.
The Santa Fe overland mails have
arrived at Independence. A general
war is expected on the New Mexican
border. The Indians swear vengeance
against all the whites
On the 20th of January, Capt, Ewell,
of the 1st Dragoons, had a light with
the Apache 1 * in the Sacramento moun
tains.
Capf. Henry W. Stanton and three
privates were killed. On the part of the
Indians twelve were slain.
Gen. Garland has called out five
volunteer companies, for a six months
campaign.
When the Santa Fe express and mail
left, it was stated that 40t‘ Indians were
advancing on the town
Lieut. Sturges also had a fight 60
miles from Santa Fe, with bands of
Indians whom he defeated, recapturing
much live stocks
The Government is very much blamed
Tor inactivity in taking measures against
these open Indian hostilities.

pondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, says;

Her forces now ready to take the field,

of wh'n/.i the Emperor Napoleon will he
