67th. (kith, or 71st sections of the net of 1799,
hat gives the inquisitorial power. except in the
tw.» c i*e* 1 have mentioned.
3. Iii answer to the third question, l am of
opinion (hut in cuitos of seizins the onus pro,
baudiis throun upon the claimant, when the
M'ixnrn i* made pursuant to the act. and that i«
when thcie i* suspicion (and that mean* a just
nnd bona fide) of fraud afior entry and the
package* unbroken, or wnero goods are su*«
peeled lo bn concealed to Hvade the duty. Ill
other cn«es I do not apprehend tlut the onus
pnJmndt •« rn*» mi the claimant under the ?l*t
sccdoti of the act of 1799. nor ought it in just ce
to he in any other casesand the reason why it is
cast on the claimant in these two cases, is bocau-e
liio conduct of the importer has raised lit Hi**
mind of the Collector reasonable ground for sms*
picion of fraud a* to the entry and invoice, nr
ns to the concealment.
4 In answer to tho 4th question, I am of
opinion that tho duties ought to ho charged up.
on tlifl actual cost of goods obtained by purchase.
If the transaction be fair, this is th<* true test ol
value, nn l what was intended by the act* of
1799 ami 1832. The 15ili section of tha net of
the 14 h July. 1832, ^the latest acl on the subject)
explicitly dncl ire* that the advaloiam rates of
duty upon good* shall be estimated upon the
actual cost if actually purchased. This is the
true value meant by tiie act, when the actual
c ist enu bo nscetluiiiRd. and the appraiser*
most laku it for too actual value. Any other
test m ire ngain*t the importer would be iinjustJfc
oppressive, mid most unreasonable. The posh
live word* of the net which i have referred to
are decisive. Tho act of 1799. sectiou 66, made
die actual and real co-t of the good* at the :»»«»•*•
•>f exportation, the test of value, end upon till*
construction only can tho revenue nets be re 1
coucit-’d un i made iustaud consistent.
5. (uaiHwur to the filh question. 1 am of opi
nion that the judgment; of appraisers, unless duly
appointed is of no moment; nut if duly appointed,
and they be duly called upon to appraise the
foods, their appraisement would he pi inn fiat
evidence of the prime cost of the purchased
good* mid sufficient in the first instance, and
until rebutted, to go a* evidence to a Juiy.
1 am of opinion finally, in reference to a part

and without duo wairaut by law seized by the
Collintnr. the importer In* hi* action of trespap*

OHIO ELECTIONS.
The accounts from Ohio are conclusive that
the Loco Focos liavo succeeded in maintaining
die a-ceiiduucy they had last year. The returns
received show the election of 9 Loco Focos nml
3Whigs to tiie Benuio. making, widi those
elected last year, 21 Loco Focos amid Wing.-
Ill die House tho Loco Foco majority isoquallj
as decisive. It is stated that the vote in many
of the counties, is very small—nnd, as usual in
such e wes, tho falling off'is nearly all on the
Whig aide—Ih^y not deeming a struggle to

W« ihH»M?*i*|ve*J to make a forced march
in ordur to surprise the Imliaus at the Old
Town Hammock, where we were informed
iliere was a large party. We murchod until
hie at night, nml moved again early in the
morning. We arrived at the Hammock on thn
moriiiiig of the 3d day. We inarched around
it und penntiatodon foot at a number of places,
but found no Indians there. We then struck
North West, dividing the comm iiid. in order to
examine (lie country more minutely. At 12
o'clock on the day. the main body hsltud to
rest our horses, and dine. When Cant- lings
joined us, and reported that ho found n large
trail leading into a hnmmock: that liu had gone
with hiv comp my two miles into the hammock;
hut hi* foren being too small, found it prudent
to retire. This point vvasahniitff miles distant.
We immediately moved to tho place, dismount
ted and leuving a small guard with our hor
ses, proceeded on tho trail. The Indiana had
discovered Capt. llagau. In about three mile*
we catno to the camps. Tho women and chil'
drew and baggage wore ull gone. A party of
warriors waned to receivo iis. Wo out flanlo
ml them and Capt. Redding, Lieut Norton and
two or three others got fair slioisnt them. They
fl-;d without returning the fire. We pursued
them until nearly night. Being spprehoiHive
for the safety ofour horses left with the guard on
the out side ofthe hammock, wo leturnod, end
arrived j ml before dark. We found our little
party had boon attacked by about 25 Indian*,
and had been fighting nearly the whole time of
our absence. The guard was commanded by
Lieut 11avlie, who behaved with great
bravery and prudence, lio whipped olF the
Indians und defended his parly without injury to
iimii or horse. Tim Indians tired from a ham
muck at lung shot nnd were afraid lo advance
even oil an inferior force.
We limited all the next day and n p ut of
the 3J, but found nothin,* more of the Indians.
We returned to this place for supplies on
the evening of the 28th instant. Our men
are in fine ho ilib, but our liortes nre very
much ja-Jod.' Wo hope they will lie sufficiently
recruited lo tiiova me day aftor to morrow,
When wo shad seok the same party again
From appeal uncos, there cannot be less than
several hundred of them. They had cultivated
extensively, and the whole hammock which i*

ImiMtun mid Galveston panors to the 5th
inrtaiit. Thu Houston Teltginph of ilia 2J
complains of not having recived a mail from the
United States for nearly a mouth. We ill New
Oiluuus have boon an unusally long while
without receiving any news Irom lho young
republic.
We copy the following paragraph from Uio
Houston htar of tho 2d:
By the B*uzns Courier of the 17th instant, we
perceive that tho Indians are constantly making
predatory excursions in the west, annoying the
irfftabitantf. Healing horses, Ac. A part)' nl
about twenty Cuiiionclies made n visit to New
Lnhadie similar to tim one unde ut Goliad—
winch our readers will recollect seeing in mir
;>aper a short time since—and challenged the
inhabitants to come out an fight ilium. Although
there woro but six or seven men in town, they
were informed thoir clialiHiiged would beac.
cep ted, ifthey would watt a short time, whirli
llioy refused lo do.—Having taken ii friendly
Mexican, the Indian* compelled him to show
them to tho Caballada. when they scalped him
and scut him homo. They then departed taking
with thorn between one and two hundred
horses.
This is tho niffy account we have seen of any
trouble caused by the Indians. Tlioy appear
lo be generally tranquil.
The remains of some person have lately been
discovered on the route from Victoria to S in
Fatricio.— 1 The body was lob much decompos
ed to render recognition possible; hilt i‘oiinecting
circiiiti-tutice* lead to tho belief that it is the
corps of tho honorable Win. Ilreiian. who left
Victoria sometime in July last, with a friend,
oil thuir way to Sau Patricio. Neither of them
had ever been heard of since. It is supposed
thev were murdered.
The president had been severely indisposed!
but on lho 3d. had so far recovered a* to cmn<
meiice his journey lo the new seat ofgovermant-
Corriwa* to re*open his theatre oil the 3d.
Tne Galveston QaiUte chirges the collector
and deputy colloct -r of the customhouse in that

It is daily becoming ino*e mid more evident
that the great communication by Rail Roads

—and also, that tho port of Savamiuh cun bo
Hie first to receive its benefits.—Both South
Carolina and tile Western Stales aie directing

idvaotage i* evident Iron} tho forwardm-ss of
the Central over the Georgia Route, (by which
South Carolina is to become a sharer in effs
trade.) These additional inducement* impose
corresponding ob iguiions on the oeuplo ofCeri*
irui Georgia, lo ho aciivo in forwurdmg the
work, and oil the alert that no obstacles ho mif
fered to bo thrown in their way, either among
ourselves, or by those whose interests are not
with us. SV e are not exclurivo in our feelings
on this subject, or jeulous of the interests ofotb*

a*k is to let iis Mono, or meet -is fair competitors

JJur stale road must he poshed to the line of

tho Central Road goes steadily ahead. Through
these mad*, wo coiifid-mtly trust, will be the
first union of the South and West
We copy the annexed brief notice of this
subject, from the Pendleton‘(S. C. ) Messcng*
We republish some nrticlcs from western pa
pers respecting the Rail Road, to show the
opinion which prevails theie mi ilie subject
T hut tho Geoigious liavo gone ahead of us iii
(he matter is boymid doubt; and w* have little
doubt either that thuir* is a better routo than
that contemplated bv our rail road company.
It is easier to turn tho mountain* than m scale
them, and tho obstacles by the French Broud if
not iiistiparable, will require an amount of
money which the company cull never command.
The true interests of the company uud the state
require, iu our opinion as wo have more than
once soul, that we should endeavour lo connect
with the Georgia road, and in that way, bring
a large portion of die western nnd south west,
eru trade to Chutleston—and abandon the other
route as impracticable with our moans.
ST. AUGUSTINE, Oct,.11,
From Tampa Run—On the 3d inst. a party
of Indians made apicsr.oiit upon cattle Rt Tain,

Serious Accident on the Carrollton Hail Road,—
Y.a*t -rd »y, about eleven o’c.ock. a. in., as the
train of cars was ascending Ine Rail Road on
their way to Carrollton, at a mile from the
Lafiyette landing, the engine oimfer in contact
with u cow, which had been biowsing nn one

way on perceiving the engine. By this collision
Iho engine was turned off* the track, and having
run a short distance, struck against a tree. The
cars attached to the engine wero overturned,
and nil more or less broken and injured. The
engineer was killed instantly by heiug thrown be
