Indiana. —Gov. Wright, of Indiana, has is
sued hia proclamation declaring the New Con
stitution of that State adopted ; and also that
the additional clause prohibiting negroes from
hereafter settling in the State, and for the colo
nization of those now in tho Slate, is a part of
the Constitution. He enjoins upon all officers
in the State who continue in office to take an
oath to support the new Constitution.
The following ie the state of the vote in all the
counties of the State but three, which have not
been received:
For the Constitution 110,680
Against the Constitution 27,143
Majority for the Constitution 83,437
For negro exclusion 111,304
Against negro exclusion 21,125
Majority for negro exclusion 90,069
The Vermont Whigs have acquitted them
selves well in the recent election. Their can
didates in all the towns heard from (about 30
small ones to come in) are a thousand ahead.
The Senate is two to one Whig, or 21 Whig
senators, and in the House, (250 (owns and
all bat fourteen) they have 111 to 88 for all
others. The Whig majority will not be less
than 20 in the House.— N. Y. Exp.
Important Improvement in Telegraphing
—The Algemine Zsitung of the 17th ult. states
thatM. Hipp, watchmaker in Reutlingen, Wur
temberg, has lately perfected the “writing tele
graph’* in such a degree that any person of ordi
nal/ capacity can telegraph by it in every minute
ons hundred and twenty letters, or as much as a
smart penman can write. The instrument con
sisting of the necessary number of keys, on
each of which the letter is marked, writes with
a glass pen, filled with common ink on ordinary
paper, which is laid over a cylinder. Tho ma
chinery is very complicated, and its construction
cannot well be described without drawings. As
two or three writing machines can be set in mo
tlon by one and the same wire, and as no trans
cribing becomes necessary, this new invention,
apart from its velocity, will recommend itself es
pecially for news intelligence. This instrument
Sromises to be also mechanically true. May
jme other discoverer give us a telegraph that
Will prove to be morally true —W. K. in Nat. Intel.
Thb Hungarians.—Capt. Brich, Capt. Lich
tenstein, Capt. Bukovitx, late of the Hungarian
army, are now in this city as delegates of one
hundred and twenty eight Hungarians who lately
arrived from Shumla. We learn that they have
been directed by Kossuth to advise with Mile.
Jagiello (now Mrs. Tochman) about the means
of reaching the colony which Gen.Ujahazi form,
ed in lowa, where they are to settle. There are
fifteen Hungarian ladies with them, ail married.
The delegates were yesterday introduced by
Major and Mrs. Tochman to the President, and
cordially received by him. In answer to their
salutations, tnePresident expressed his satisfac
tion that they and their leader, Kossuth, have
chosen this country for their home, and assured
them that they will find friends wherever thev
may settle. J
Thb Pampero.— Tho Florida arrived at
New York from Savannah, reports that the
steamer Pampero is still loitering about Sa
vannah and adjacent ports, expressly for the
purpose of being captured by the government
authorities. 1 his, it is said, is at the instance
or through the influence of Mr. Segur, a law
yerof New Orleans, who wishes to test the
qnnilinn " f -—•“» .rjo, tu asueriHin Wtiat
legal or constitutional rights are aff e c‘ed by it.
It is said that the coal dealer at New Or
leans, who agreed to supply the Pampero with
160 tons of coal, delivered only 80; and that !
“ consequence of this deficient supply, the
Pampero on her late voyage to Cuba ins ead
of p oceedmg to Puerto Principe, the point
Os her original destination, was compelled to ]
stop at Bahia Honda, where there were but *
few, If any, disaffected Creoles, and where i
followed the disastrous and deplorable seati*' -
which is now known to all.— Ch. Co i/- , •<*« <

Revolutionary Movement in Austbi/ a , —
Execution of a Political offender at A Ulam
That a Milanese workman, nanae'j Ohiesa,
was shot at Milan, a short time s’.nce* for at.
tempting to post some revolutionary placards,
was announced in the newspaper at the time.
Private letters supply the following interesting
Sarticulars of the man and his manner of
eath:
“ He was to have been hanged according to
the sentence of the court martial; bat the ex
ecutioner of Bergamo, having refnsed to give
his services, he was shot. The executioner
(hatred to the foreign yoke, is so deeply in
grained in the nation, that it has penetrated
even to this most abhorred of its functionaries)
has been punished with death for his disobe
dience.
“On hia trial, Chiesa was asked, 'Who
gave you the writings to post V He answered,
‘No one ; I composed them myself.’ ‘Where
did you get them printed V I printed them
myself, in my own dwelling.’ ‘Where are
your printing materials 7’ ‘I do not know.’ ”
“On his passage from the prison to the
place of punishment, the confessor promised
him impunity if he would make a revelation
of his accomplices. Chiesa, who has left a
wife and daughter without means of support,
constantly refused to purchase his life at the
price of dishonor. He saluted, with a quiet
and serene air, the people who were near,
and kneeling to receive his death, said, in a
load voice, ‘my sacrifice is the sign of the
coming ruin of Austria.’ He refused to let
his eyes be bandaged, wishing to look his mur
derers to the last in the face
“ This political assassination, so atrocious in
itself, was even consummated without legal
forms; for the officer who commanded the
platoon charged with the execution, having
fallen down in a faint, could not give the sig
nal; and the soldiers fired without receiving
orders. The following is still worse. The
wife and daughter of Chiesa are in prison ;
the Austrian judge leaves them ignorant of the
death of their relative, and tries to wrest from
them revelations of his accomplices by promis
ing the pardon of the hnsband and father as a
reward for avowals.’ We hope, for the sake
of humanity, this last detail is not true.”
S **" a Capt. Sheffield, of
the brig Marcellus, arrived at New York on
Tuesday morning, from Sagua la Grande
Cuba, says that a severe hurricane was felt at
that place on tbe2o:h of August. The barom
eter felt to a lower point than it did at Havana
just previous to the great gale of 1846. All
the vessels in Sagua la Grande dragged their
anchors, but none of them received material
damage. A lighter sunk at her anchors with

A Persecuted Man.—A northern paper tells
the following good one :
Hamilton, of the Maryville Tribune, was trav
elling in the cars the other day, ftom Bellefon
taine to Kenton, when he fell in with a decided
character. He was tolerably drunk. Let Ham
ilton toll the rest.
He said he lived in Urbana; that the Metho
dists had had a great revival there a year or more
ago, and that more than a hundred were con
verted, that he had been converted some years
before and had joined the church. We asked him
if he still belonged to it.
“No,” said he, ,“they turned me out for the
most frivolous thing in the world ; if I’d know’d
they’d a turned me out for such a little thing as
< that, I’d never joined.”

The Albetti Case—The Authentic Report
The Constitutionalist “admits that accord
ing ?;othi* report, sent to Mr. Miller, it would
appear that Alberti had kidnapped the child.”
Now this report purports to be copied verba
tim from a forthcoming volume of law reports.
It was sent to Mr. Miller, by the Messrs.
Johnsons, book sellers, men of character—
who sell largely at the South, and whose inte
rests would be doeply affected by Bending a
false statement of the case. Doubts being en
tertained as to the authenticity ofthe newspaper
report, reference was had to the best authority
accessible, prior to the actual publication of
the book of reports. The character and inte
rest of the book sellers and publishers vouch
for the authority of the intelligence they furn
ish.
The report published by the Constitutionalist
!f Republic Extra, purporte on its face to have
been '‘published for the benefit of the family of
Albe bti.”
Which reportjeomea to ns with the greater
marks of credibility 7
The Constitutionalist says our article is
“apolog y—apology—apology for the North.”
and proc eedsto argue the case on facts givtn
in the old report. It is our object to do jus
tice to all, and give e ,f en his due. If that
paper is w illing jto neglect doing even tardy
justice to th. r truth, it is not our fault, we having
afforded it every facility, and explicitly called
upon it to p üblieh it. Can it deny that the re
port, as we published it, is more probably au
thentic ai id correct than its own 7
Is it so anxious to prop a falling cause by
any stra< m which chance may furaish, as to be
unwilling to lose even the support of a straw,
when i t is shown to be broken?
Executive Intercession.—The annexed
statement, which appeared in the Washington
Republic of Tuesday, makes known the steps
taken by the President in behalf of the Cuban
pri loners. Every body must wish success to
his benevolent efforts:
“Upon the receipt of these (Captain Platt’s) des
pa.tches, the President directed copies to be sent to
the Spanish Minuter, the further to enforce an appeal
already made to that Government, now since the
loader of the expedition has been cut off, to deal
mercifully with his deluded followers, who were en
ticed into the invasion under the be'ief that the peo
ple of the Island were already in a state of revol -lion,
aud desired assistance to establish a Republican Go
vernment —a state of facta which, had it existed,
could not have justified their conduct, either in view
of our own statutes or of the law of nations, but the
expectation of which gives them a strong claim to
pardon.” "

Carrying Concealed Weapons.—Gov.
Hunt, of New York, has declined interfering
with the due course of tha law, in the ease of
Aaron B. Stookey, to be executed in New
York city, on lhe 19th inst., for the tnnrder of
Zeddy Moore. The Governor, in concluding
his letter upon the subject, remarks;
“ Stookey’s crime may be traced directly to
the habit he had adopted of carrying a dange
rous weapon concealed about his person.
His fate should be a warning to all who in
dulge in this reprehensible practice. It cannot
be too strongly impressed upon their minds,
that persona who choose to carry concealed

Mr. Serfdom's Amendment.
Messrs. Editors: —A great deal has been
said and written lately about the rejection of
Mr. Seddon’s amendment to the Utah Bill.
This is said, too, by those who, up to the time of
the passage of that Bill, were clamorous for
non-intervention. They now say that the re
jection of that amendment was a virtual denial
to the South of the true principles of non
intervention. Now let rs see. That amend
ment was in the following words:
" And that prior to the formation pf State Consti
tutions, there shall be no prohibition by reason of
any law or usage existing in said Territory, or by
the action of the Territorial legislature, of the emi-
f ration of all citizens of the United States with any
ind of property recognized as such in any of the
States of the Union.”
This amendment was voted down by 53 in
favor of it and 85 against it. And the argu
ment is. that by this vote the Mexican laws
against slavery were virtually affirmed. Bot
“mark how plain a tale shall pnt them down.”
Immediately after the rejection of this
amendment, Mr. Filch from Indiana, offered
the following proviso:
“ Provided that the Mexican law prohibiting
slavery, be and remain in full force in said Territory.”
On thii amendment tho vote was 52 for it
and 85 against. This was a direct vote on the
naked question of affirming the Mexican anti
slavery law, and the House refused to affirm
the Mexican law by a larger majority than
they refused to adopt Mr. Seddon’s amend
ment. The truth is the majority in the House
had determined to carry out the true princi
ples of non-intervention as olaimed by the
South, that is, that Congress would not inter
fere in any way with the subject of slavery in
the Territories, but leave it to ths people there
to determine for themselves. This was clearly
what Judge Berrien meant in his speech in the
Senate, February 11, 1850, where he siys:
“ And now 1 desire Senators to observe the footing
upon which, so far as 1 understand it, the Southern
claim rests. We make no claim to your interfer
ence. We do not invoke the exercise of your legis
lative power. We deny that you possess such pow
ers. We say to Congress, exercise the power
which you possess, from whatever source
be derived, of instituting Governments for. these
Territories. Abstain from legislating upon the
eubject of slavery.”
Here the position of the South is clearly
and distinctly stated. And the action of Con
gress was in strict conformity to it. No man
can deny it. Mr. Seddon invoked the aid of
Congress on one aide—Mr. Fitch on tho other.
Congress came squarely up to the demand of
Judge Berrien, Mr. Calhoun and all the South
ern States, and refuted to interfere one way or
the other, either for or against slavery t» the
Territories. They abstained from all legisla
tion on the subject. This is the truth of the
matte r, and yet there are those who are so
clamorous for this very doctrine, who, now
they have got it carried out to the letter, say
they are degraded by it. For the vote on Mr.
Seddon’s amendment, and Mr. Fitch’s imme
diately after, see Congressional Globe, let

Died, in Bath, the sth inst., Mbs. Bbthia Walk
er, of Burke, in the eightieth year of her age.
Mrs. Walker lived to see tbe third generation of her
children, and was the honored representative of a
large and most respectable family. She spent the
evening of her life in the bosom of this domestic
circle, loved and cherished, not ooly as the house
hold mother, but as a ‘‘mother of Israel.” For
more than thirty years, she has been a consistent
Christian in tbe communion of the Presbyterian
Church, and leaves a legacy of pure morality and
genuine piety behind her. She was zealous without
enthusiasm, hopeful without presumption—without
pretensions a Christian, The conclusion of such a
life was that predicted of the just and upright, an
‘‘end of peace.” She h>s been gathered to her
fathers, and we may say j
‘‘Thou art gone to the grave, but we will not de
plore thee,
Whose God was thy ransom, thy Jguardian and
guide,
Hq gave thee;hs took thee; and he will restore
thee,
And death has no sting, since tho Saviour has died.
