am sorry, very sorry, that this gentleman has let his name appear in the place of Col. Campbell’s. It is a weakness which the real friends ofCapt. Talbot must be lieve he would not have been guilty of. Bat the die is cast, and Matthew Tal )ot, of Wilkes county, is a candidate, at the next election, for the Executive chair of the State of Georgia. It must be acknowledged that the two Candidates, now before the public, stand deservedly high in the estimation of the people of Georgia, hut not in the same way Capt. Talbot is a man of amiable manners, honest, mild, and conciliating. Mr Forsyth is also a man of amiable manners, honest, mild, and conciliating, when duty does not require another de- portment. In comparing these two gen- retary. of State. jpung uie utucu ui aec- INDIAN HOSTILITIES. By the Steamboat Hercules, arrived at Shippingport on the 13jh instant, id three days from St. Louis, we have received the the following information: “ About two hours before we left there, Gov. Cass arrived from the Misissippi, and brought the unpleasant intelligence of an attack on two keel boats, no their pas sage from Praire du Chien to the Upper Rapids, by a party of Winehago Indians. The boats were fired on repeatedly—two men belonging to them were killed, and one (Mr. Benjamin Thon of Pittsburgh, Clerk of the Steamboat Mexico) danger ously wounded.— Large and suspicious tic-men, we will find that in point of private parties of Indians had been seen hovering tlcrn . ,. , :i.„ 1.,., about the Fever River lead mines—the rib they stand on an equal footing, but j consequence was that nearly all the miners that in point of talents comparison ceases. ., . . ^ , The superiority of Mr. Forsyth must be had ‘P'i*■ the « r work and retreated to Gal- acl;nowled-ed by all. I am yet to learn j ™ a ’ Jt «’ as understood at St Louis that vhat talenls Capt. Talbot has ever dis- : ^ en - A^mson, the commandant at Jef- Plavcd • and he is now at an age when j f ? rson Barracks, was about to despatch none c m be acquired. He has been in j s,x companies of troops stationed there, |, e vvas ; immediately to the scene of hostilities— The steamboats Indiana and General Hamilton, both lying at St. Louis, it was supposed would be put in requisition to transport them and their baggage.” Extract of a letter from a gentleman ac companying Gov. Cass, to the editor of the Detroit Gazeite, dated June 27, 1827. The Governor takes his departure to morrow for Praire du Chien, accompanied by Mr F< •rsyth. A ieport prevailed here on our arrival, which has since been offi cially communicated, that the YVinneba- goes have proposed a union with the Pot- tawatomies, for the purpose of driving off the miners from their country. Their pa tience h is been exhausted bv the unwar rantable and steadily increasing aggres sions of the whi'es, who are pressing upon them with an indifference to their rights, that may result in their expulsion from a country, for the occupation of which the in truders have that kind ofargument to offer, which is fiiind so effecfual in all questions between the strong and the weak. At ♦ ho lowest computation 5000 men are en- | gaged in workingtbese mines, yielding em- i ployment to six steam boats that are con- stantlv tilving between those points and St. Lotus. Gov. Cass will be at the mines ns soon as an express canoe can carry him, and 'hen the trouble will either be quiet ed, or put in train for righteous settlement He will probably v ; sit Chicagoimmediatc- !y r, n his return, to ascertain the inten tions Pattawafomles. The 15th of July was the day appointed fw opening the treaty, but Indians are so dilatory in their movements that it will hardly commence so soon. Five or six r1 ys may elapse befor the copper-coloured gentlemen may be ready to ‘appear and take their seats.’ ” the Legislature for many years ; a member of the convention which framed the constitution now in force. I will ask any of his warmest friends, what has he done to recommend him to the people as a man of talents, able to direct with a stea dy hand and an energetic mind, the affairs of the State? It is true he presided in the Senate with dignity and impartiality. He would iio doubt demean himself with the like dignity and impartiality as Gov ernor ; hut I will ask, are dignity and impartiality sufficient qualifications for a Governor of the State, especially when ♦he situation of Georgia requires the great est talents to promote her welfare, and to give a vigorous impulse to her resources and to the industry of the people ? The friends of Capt. Talbot must de pend chiefly on his private reputation for his election. But for what purpose have they brought him forward ? Is it under the impression that the State will lie 1 ene- fileil by it? Private virtues alone cannot produce the result anticipated ; and Cap'. Talbot does not possess, besides private viilues, the talents requiem to render his administration bencfic,.;l to me State.— Have the friends of Capt. Talbot brought him forward in order to insure his fu me prospects? Tifs cannot bo. Capt. Tal bot is now of an age when amb tion loses a great deal of its relish and value ; when corporal infirmities b>’ng a debility of mind ; when, in slior, by the loss of in tellectual and bodily faculties, all men seek for repose, and avoid imelloctual and bo dily labour. C ipt. Talbot cannot have any future prospec's in view—no private- interest to promote—no plan of future greatness to accomplish. His age and his moderate talents are great obstacles to his aspiring views, if any have latterly in up incl. M v bf lief is, that those who will vote for Capt. Talbot will not advance his interest in the least, save the gratification of momentary pride, should lie be elected Governor. And if we could read in the hearts of men, I will venture to say, that Capt. Talbot was brought forward against his will, and a- gainst his better judgment. If Capt. Talbot was in need ; if the election of Governor could render him more happy the remainder of his life, I would proba bly mvself vote for him. But he is not in need ; he has become, I do believe, a candidate very reluctantly ; and those who will vote for him, will not have per formed a serviceable part towards him, and their dutv towards the Sta e. By the election of M'-. Forsyth, we will have a man in everv respect qualified for the of fice of Governor ; we will have a man who will support the best interests of the State, and maintain its honour and dignitv. ARATUS. NASCITUR RIDICWLUS MUSH {t/ 8 * The Telegraph of the 21st says, unequivocally, lhat Mr.. Buchanan, of Pa., is the Member of Congress who made the Communication to Gen. Jackson.— M r , R. had been induced to believe that a pledge from Gen. Jackson or his friends, that Gen. Jackson would not so appoint Mr. Adatns to the office which Mr. Olay desired, would be sufficient to cause Mr. C.nnd his friends to vote for General Jackson and thus secure his election. Mr. Markley had said to Mr. B. that it was right to fight such intriguers with their own weapons ; and it was the opinion of Mr.Markley, and not his own that Mr. B. expressed to Gen. J.” “ Mr. B. if we are rightly informed had received his in formation from Mr. Majkley nndercon ditions which prevented him from giving his name to General Jackson. Hence the mystery had never been explained to General Jackson, and which produced the suspicion that Mr. B. had come from Mr. Clay.”—Richmond Enqirer. We find the following in the Philadel phia Gazette, of Friday last: COMMUNICATION. There was one way in which Mr. Clay might have proved liis disinterestedness, and that was by accepting nothing from the man whom he made President. It is a great pity he did not choose that oneway. It would have saved a deal of disputing. But now it is impossible to prevent People having their own thoughts about the business. AN OLD FEDERALIST. Inis Old Federalist has certainly ntis- en the matter. In accepting the office ® ecretary of State, Mr. Clay made a positive asj clear sacrifice of his person- a interest. H e quitted a practice at the Uar mure lucrative bv far than his present station. He certainlv did not, therefore, consult his interest. i n the matter. He consulted his friends, however, and they Urged him to accept the offer made bv the Presiuent: and, if we do not egregious- iy mistake, some of those who are now most derided among the “ Combination,” ^cre hts advise^ to the course which Mr. Another Summary of Summaries.— Mrs Royal has been correcting the Court of Errors. Mr. Clay is attempting to eat his way into the affection of the people. We believed it was Napoleon who said the nearest way to a man’s heart is down his throat—but man cannot eat clay.

William Burleigh. NEW YORK, JULY 23. We learn by a passenger in the Tobac co, from Vera Cruz and Tampico, that some events of interest had occurred in Mexico, since the date of our former ad vices, but we have not been able to obtain the particulars. The Mexican Minister of Finance had been ordered to leave the country. He was to be immediately es corted to Vera Cruz, and was allowed but forty eight hours to find a conveyance from that port. The Priest Arenas, who was concerned in the late attempt at insurrec tion, had been shot. We also learn that a great mercantile house in the city of Mexico had failed, and was deficient to the amount of $800,- 000, the creditors principally in Europe and the United States.—Mer. Adv. The National Intelligencer of the 24th inst. says : * Mr. Clay certainly did not consult his interest, when he accepted the office of Secretary of State ; he consult ed his friends, however, and they urged him to accept the offer made by the Pres- dent; and if we do not egregiously mis take, some who are now most decided a- mong the “ Combination,” were his ad visers to the course which Mr. Clay took in accepting the office of Secretary of State.” This fact can be well established, and doubtless will, as soon as General Jack- son attempts to support his charges. We know several of these consistent advisers. Alex. Gazette. ir, uemne jar iiuismg rr aler.—A. CC G. Bradly, of Newton, have sent us a par tial account of a self-acting Machine, in vented by them, for raising water. There is a brook at a little distance from their dwelling houses, the bed of which is 18 feet lower than the sill of the house. The water of their wells would not answer to wash with, and they were compelled to re sort to the brook until their neccessities became the mother of invention to them. They have a simple but durable machine, at a cost not exceeding ten dollars, which raises the water to the amount of 1440 gallons per day. There is no wheel or pump atached to the machine. They are fully satisfied from this experiment, that water may be raided on the same principle to the height of fifty feet or more, in lar ger quantities, for the purpose of carrying water wheels of every power; supplying distilleries, tan yards and farws on which there is no living stream, &c. They have not given a very satisfactory description of the machinery, but say a fall of three feet is necessary in raising the water 10 feer, and in that proportion for a great er or less distance. Suppose a person has a spring near his house, but ten or twen ty feet lower than the house, he has only to set up a penstock, throw the water in to it and then put in a lead pipe at the bot tom of the penstock, and take it to his house.” They will give further informa tion to those who shall write them (post paid.)—N.

Wait & Son, BOSTON, Publish monthly, a Periodical Work entitled the JOURNAL OF EDUCATION. PS.OSPECTUS. T HE spirit of inquiry, which has of late years extended to every thing connected with human improvement, has been directed with pe culiar earnestness to the subject of education. In our own country, the basis of w hose institu tions is felt to be intelligence and virtue, this topic has been regarded as one of no ordinary interest, and has excited a zeal and an activity worthy of its importance. By judicious endeavors to adapt the character of instruction to the progressive requirements of the public mind, much has been done to continue and accelerate the carerr of improvement. Thesevery efforts, however, and this success, have produced the conviction that much remains to be done. A periodical work, devoted exclusively to edu cation, would seem likely to be of peculiar ser vice at the present day, when an interest in this subject is so deeply aud extensively felt. At no ; criod have opportunity and disposition for the extensive interchange and diffusion of thought been so favorably combined. 'Science and Liter ature have their respective publications, issuing at regular intervals from the press, and contri buting incalculably tfl the dissemination of know ledge and of taste. But education, a subject of | the highest practical impottance to every school, i every family, and every individual in the rom- j munity, remains unprovided with one of those j popular and useful vehicles of information. A I minute detail of the advantages which may he 1 expected to result from a peiiodical work, such as is now proposed, we think unnecessary With the success of other publications of the same , class before us, we feel abundant encouragement to proceed in our undertaking.

The moral de partment of education has too commonly been restricted to an occasional word of parental ap probation or reproof; or, at the best, to efforts limited by the sphere of domestic life. The natu ral consequence of the restrictions thus unjustly laid on education, is, that we often find, in the same individual a learned head, but a debilitated body, and a neglected heart. Education should, we think, be regardcd as the means of fitting man for the discharge of all his duties : it should pro duce vigorous and hardy bodies, trained to pow erful action, and inured to privation and f-tigue; hearts formed to all that is pure and noble in moral principle; and minds prepared for effi cient exertion in whatever mav be their depart ment in the great business of accomplishing the purposes of human existence.
