The Tallahassee Star of the 21st says:— ‘ The army express which arrived here on Monday morning last, brought the following piece of news in the shape of a memorandum, upon the way bill, made by Capt. Miles. “Col. Harney sate at Key Biscayne, has cap tured Sam Jones’ nephew and 25 other Indians. The boats of the United States Steamer Poinsett, also captured 15 Indians on the Miamo River.” The Savannah Georgian of Monday', stales that a severe thunder storm occurred in Beaufort, S. C., on the 19th inst. Some damage was done the crops on Lady’s Island ; and the schr. Le vant, of Charleston, was thrown on her beam ends, and filled in three fathoms water off Pig eon Point. She was, however, raised, and dis charged her cargo at Beaufort. Rhode Island.— The election of two mem bers of Congress took place in this State yester day. The New York American states that a portion of the Whigs have adopted one of the Loco-Foco candidates, upon a local question. If this defection be to much extent, it will of course, when parties are so nearly balanced, lead to the success of one or both of the Loco-Focos—a re sult under existing circumstances, deeply to be regretted, and not the less so, because the Whigs have it in their power to prevent. The Boston Atlas contains a statement of the expenses and profits es the different Railroad Companies of Massachusetts, with the amount of declared by them respectively as re turned to the Legislature. It appears that the Boston and Lowell Railroad gave a dividend of six per cent, for the year—the nett revenue on a capital of $1,575,000 being seven and a third per cent, for the year 1838. The Andover and Ha verhill Railroad divided three per cent, for the year 1838 being GJ percent, on §250,000. The Boston and Providence Raijfoad divided G per cent —the nett revenue being 7A per cent, on $l,- 700,000. The estimated nett revenue on the Eastern railroad, open for public travel as far as Salem, is, on S3GO, n OO paid by individual stock holders on the Railroad from Boston to Salem, 13J per cent. It will thus be scon that in their infancy the public works of that State are re turning a revenue which gives every reason to believe that they will soon become sources of great profit. From the Apalachicola Gazette. The affair at Charlotte Harbor, appears to have been even more disgraceful to the American arms, than was at first represented. It appears that according to the provisions of Macomb’s treaty, a trading post was established within the Indian limits, near Charlotte Harbor, and suttlers sent there, well supplied with goods, to trade with the Indians. They sold them plenty if Whiskey, provisions, and notions. It is staled by letter writers, (whose correspondence is published in the northern papers, and probably from officers at the post,) that the Indians were very solicitous to purchase powder, ammunition, &c.—for said they, how can we subsist in our country, unless we have powder to kill game. It is not admitted ttoy sold any to the Indians, but there were sev erA white men, Spaniards, who had no difficulty in getting as much as they wanted. After bam boozling Col. Harney, and his officers, for a while, by pretending the utmost friendship, the Indians all at once, set upon his post, during the night, and murdered nearly the whole of them, and plundered the camp of what remained after their sales. Among other things v Inch they obtained, were a considerable number of the lately patent ed repeating rides—to which the Indians took a great fancy, which they were very inquisitive in learning how to use, and which they were not allowed to purchase. So infatuated were the officers and soldiers at this post, that notwithstanding all the bloody ex amples which have recently been given of Indian treachery and bad faith—yet they had failed to fake the least precaution to guard against it, and were overtaken and destroyed in their beds, with out raising a hand in their own defence.

Advertiser, The Loco-Foco organs groan lustily at the de feat of Robert Dale Owen, who was a candidate for Congress in Indiana. Their tears and lamen tations are in this case very appropriately bestow ed. Owen, in conjunction with Fanny Wright, was the founder ot the Loeo-Foco sect, in politics as in religion. He broached the principles which now constitute the cardinal doctrines of the Ad ministration. He first preached in this country the now favorite and leading doctrine of ‘‘the Pur t.v” —equal rights, and a community in all things. He sought to build up a party which would level all distinctions in society—which would confound virtue and vice, and give to the idle, prodigal, profligate ami vagabond, the proceeds of the labor of the virtuous, industrious and enterprising por tion of the community. His discomfiture is well bewailed by those who are indebted to him for their creed, and wdio, in their appeals to popular prejudice, have profited by his (to the vicious) fascinating hut demoralizing dogmas, —Richmond Whig. From the Bangor Whig. Public Expenditures. An inquiry was put on foot a few years since to ascertain the comparative expenses of support ing a republican and a monarchical government, but with what success we do not now recollect, nor is it of any practical utility, since the supe rior advantages ot a republican government to the people, over all other forms, more than com pensate for any additional expense. But it is important at all limes, and e' ery where, that pub lic and private economy should prevail. Espe cially it is important that our government should be administered with the strictest economy ; for although the vast domains now held by the gen eral government in public lands, and the sales of which produce a great revenue, and relieve the people from much of the tax necessary to sup port the government, it should he remembered, that this domain probably belongs to the people of all the States, and should, in the exercise of a common justice, go to the several States, if not to the people of the several States. Besides in the exercise of a prudent foresight the people should see to it that habits of extravagance do not grow up in the government, that by and by, when the means for gratifying it, now afforded by the sales of public lands, shall he cut olf, they may lie called upon to pay out of their own pockets by a direct tax, or the government go on contracting a national debt like that of England. The jealousy of the people was greatly aroused to this subject during the administration of Mr. Adams, because for all the expenditures of the government, it required about thirteen millions of dollars per annum. If there was cause of com plaint at this sum, what shall he said of the forty millions of dollars now required by a reform, economical, locofoco administration 1 If the people were alarmed and indignant at the former, with what feelings ought they to consider the latter ] Let us take a few facts to account for this vast difference in the aggregate annual expenditures of Adams and Van Buren. The patent office under Mr. Adams’ adminis tration, employed four officers, with a joint salary of three thousand seven hundred dollars. It now has twenty-live officers, with salaries amounting to twenty-five thousand dollars. An increase of more than twenty-one thousand dollars. In 1828, the revenue amounted to twenty-three million two hundred and five thousand five hun dred and twenty dollars, and its collection cost the government eight hundred and eighty-nine thousand three hundred and twenty-seven dollars. This was denounced as extravagance. But in 1888, the first year of Mr. Van Buren’s admin istration, the collection of eleven million one hundred ami sixty-nine thousand two hundred and ninety dollars cost one million four hundred and ninety-seven thousand two hundred and se venty-five dollars. Here is a large increase in the expense of collecting, though the revenue collected amounted only to about one half that of 1827. The expenditure for internal improvements du ring the four years of Mr. Adams’administration, averaged four hundred and five thousand one hundred and seven dollars per annum. And (he people were told over and over again, that this sort of extravagance would ruin the country and make her bankrupt; and to put an effectual slop to it, the party was opposed to internal improve ments by the general government, except of a particular character, which must necessarily he limited. But vve see that in 1838, the sum of one mil lion nine hundred and seventy thousand three hundred and seventeen dollars was appropriated for that purpose. An increase, for one year, of more than one million five hundred thousand dol lars. It cost thirteen thousand dollars to prepare the President’s house for the reception of Mr. Adams, but Mr. Van Buren requires nineteen thousand for the same purpose. It cost the people six thousand dollars more for a professed democrat than for a real one. In 1828, the war department employed twenty officers, with a joint salary of thirty.eight thou sand six hundred and sixty dollars. It then managed the business of the Indian department. In 1837, the war department cost the people six ty-three thousand eight hundred and ten dollars. It then employed forty clerks; and the Indian department was managed as a separate concern, by fifteen officers, with a yearly salary of nineteen thousand four hundred dollars. An increase of only fifty-four thousand five hundred and sixty dollars. The government in 1838, had to pay the fol lowing sums for newspapers subscribed for by the President:— Post Office Department, $307 00 War Department, 884 00 Treasury Department, 977 93 Navy Department, 450 75 Total, $2.099 71 Besides the expenditures which are enormous ly increased over the reported extravagant ad ministration of Mr. Adams, we find it also slated that the following among other similar sums have been paid outof the Treasury in 1838. and which smacks a little more of official extravagance than we think the people ought to he willing to sup- I port: —Ross hushes for war department, fifty-six dollars and sixty cents—dinners at taverns for clerks of the Post Office department, one hun dred and eighty-eight dollais and seienty-four cents—iee tor Treasury department, eighty-nine dollars sixty-six and a halt cents—bust lor Sec j rctary Forsyth, six dollars. Are the people to be gulled with the objection to the greatly increased expenses of the govern ! ment, and to its abhorrent extravagance, that the i President is not responsible, because he dues not nwke the appropriations ; and that the party is not responsible, because it does not pay nui the money. This kind of game may answer fora lime to amuse the readers of the Belfast Journal, but it is too lame and sick and sore to stand against the prying gaze and close observation of a free and industrious and intelligent people. The gold furnished official may approve and pass along any thing for an objection against what helps him, but the hard toiling freeman, will place the responsibility, with the majority, where it belongs; and if the plea is, that this adminis tration is composed of men who have denied their accountability to God and men, we shall not bo disposed to doubt it, but earnestly desire a change in men, manners, principles and" practices, in the high places of our country, that she may go on ward and upward in the path of honor and safe ty- i 111-. CUV 18 STILL THEY COMK MAKE lIOOM you the Sen-fiiKASi liens. —From the Boston Mercantile Journal we extract the following let ter, chronicling the eventful history of another Sub-Treasurer. Mu he Ruoirnnv — lt will be seen by the fol lowing letter which we have received, that there has been guite a ‘‘flare up” in the pleasant vil lage ot Exeter, N. H., in consequence of rougue ry in the Post Office at that place. “Exeteb, N. H., Aug. 20, 1839. Dear Sir—Our quiet village was thrown into a slate ot excitement this morning, by the arrest of Hiram Whittemorc, Assistant Post Master, at this place, by process issued by the United Stales At torney, for purloining money from sundry letters as they passed through this’ofliee. It. seems that several parcels of money directed to Dover, have been missed, which led to suspicions of persons in this office. And Mr. Smith, the Postmaster at Dover, wrote to the department, mid got authority to search the mails as they passed this and other offices—and yesterday he caused letters, contain ing money, and directed to Dover, to be mailed at Haverhill and Kpping, and then followed the mail from this place to Lamprey Uiver, and there open ed it and found one ot the letters mailed by him missing, and the money taken from the other two. He then returned to Exeter, and late last evening caused the Assistant Postmaster to be arrested . anil examined—and the identical bilk contained in the two letters, which had been marked by him. were fodnd on his person—and the other was found among the waste paper in the office. Mr. Whittemorc is son of Judge Whittemorc of Pembroke, one of the ornamental Judges of our county, and married to the daughter of Mr. Hoit, our Postmaster. He is a full-blooded locofoco, and, as it seems, of the Harrington, Price, and Swartwout school. He is now in jail. Reception op Mu. Clay. —The reception, yesterday, of the distinguished Western States man, was more enthusiastic than his warmest friends could have anticipated* Ifwe measure it by his distinguished deserts, or by the gratitude and affection of the People, it was all that even those deserts could have demanded, and all that the heartiest affection and the sincerest gratitude could have desired. Never have wo witnessed such a spontaneous and irresponsible outburst of popular feeling. Never before have we seen a whole community rising up and pressing forward to pay an unbought tribute to a citizen who has no claim upon them but that of eminent service —no official position to summon official parade and pageantry—no place and patronage for the reward of a voluntary homage. The memory of this eventful occasion must ever be cherished by Mr. Clay, as among th • proudest recollections of his life. Come what may, he can never forget the generous and enthusiastic welcome which he received yesterday from the citizens of this vast metropolis. We do not believe that the annals of the world record a purely civic triumph, combin ing so much that was gratifying and honorable to its object, with so much that, was disinterested, sincere and heartfelt in the multitude assembled to swell and share its display.— N. Y. Cuur, A Enq., of 22 d. I he transport ship Quebec has at last arrived at Quebec, and is said to be destined to convey the. political prisoners in the Canadas to their des tination— Botany Bay. There they will be in dentured to the Colonists, and treated like galley slaves for life, made hewers of wood and drawers of water, and branded with the infamy of felons. J his simple and primitive appearance of the habitnns, dressed in the costume of their coun try, will excite surprise at Botany Bay that such men could cause so much trouble and expense to the British Government, or that they were worth transporting to a penal colony at all, for they con sist of men deficient in energy, ignorant and su perstitious to a degree. To them absence from their native land will be infinitely worse th ?in con- | finement in a prison, and the great length of the voyage, which the slowness of the Buffalo will considerably lengthen, will inspire them with an indescribable feeling of alarm. Ihe Courier ot yesterday appears to doubt if the prisoners will he transported after all, and as we live in strange times, it is not at all impossi ble or improbable that they may yet be set at lib crly probably some more fees are longed for for commuting their sentences a second lime.—Mon treal Herald.
