to makt any dpcs'iiion of tLett wMtb. in tritir opinion, would prove more taft and profitable than their present Investment, would It not ba well, if the nock held in the bunk, on accouot of tnewtwo fund, be told, end the pro ceede Invested in luch State securities at are in market Of can be procured by negotiation. If thett atocVi will realize seventy Eve per centum, the seminary fund (for instance) would amount to seventy five thousand dollars. This sum in-vested in State bonds, bearing at the lowest rite 't pet Centura, would produce four thousand fire hundred dollars annually, which is far more than tbt meagre amount arising from the divi. dends of the bank, which have realized on the capital stock of one hundred thousand dollars, the annual amount, for neatly the last three ytera, of about one thousand dollars.

If the General Assembly, then, should think itstlf bound to take care that these funds suffer no diminution, might not the deficit thus created be supplied by money arising from the sale of (he five hundred thousand acres of land granted to this State by Congress? It is true, that the essent of Congress must previously be obtained, yet I think that on a memorial to that effect there would be no difficulty in obtaining for this purpose a modification of the grant, which would still leave a large sum for an internal improvement fund. The great cost of the construction of the pub lic buildings in tho City of Jefferson, in my opinion, renders advisable some measure to guard them Against destruction by fire. By virtue of an act of the lust General Assembly, the fire placet of the Capitol have been laid with sheet iron, so as to, in a groat degree, prevent all danger from that source, yet the building it fur from being fire proof. Perhaps it as much so as it can be rendered; yet to guard against accidents, I would recommend to you the propriety of causing to be dug, on the Capitol hill, one or more cisterns, and the purchase of a fire engine with the necessary hose. The public spirit of the citizens ol Jerterson, 1 have no doubt, would soon organize a fire company, whose services would be cheerfully rendered in behalf ol the State.

Among the documents which accompany this communication will be found a letter from the Treasury Department of the United Slates re questing certain statistical information respecting thit Mate, which I respectfully reler to you, with a suggestion of the propriety of making it the duty of Sheriffs, when they take the census I tnisibtete, to collect and report the information thua desired for the use of both the State and General Governments. You will also find correspondence between the late Governor of this Mate and the Uovernor of Illinois, in relation to the surrender of Richard Eels, a fugitive from justice, charged with having assisted in decoying slaves from this State. I invite your particular attention to this subject. Tbe other accompanying documents have bjen received from the several States and from individuals, ith a request that they be laid before the General Assembly, From a communication of the Register of lands, herewith transmitted, it will be seen that one half of the grant to thia State by Congress of five hundred thousand acres of land has been selected by the commissioners appointed for this purpose, and that in the land districts of the United States the proportion of these lands -hit been selected at follows: ICSES. TJDTS.

43,673 16 64,098 49 67,309 87 180,086 62 la the Palmyra land district, Springfield, Fayette, Amount selected in the Lexington district, and not yet act-ski on by the Secretary of the Treasury, Making Of this quantity there have been sold in the Fayette land district, In (he Springfield land district 46,505 07 226,651 59 6,137 32 160 00 5,297 32 For the sum of six thousand six hundred and twenty-one dollars and sixty-one cents. There yet remains to be selected, two hundred -and seventy-three thousand, three hundred and forty eight and 4 100 acres, which by an act of the last ucneial Assembly, are directed (o be taken in the counties of Platte, Buchanan, Andrew and Holt. In pursuance of the provisions of this act, a commissioner was appointed by the late executive, and directed to proceed as early as practicable in the discbarge of the duties imposed on him by law. His report has not yet been received but will in all probability, be filed in the office of Register of Lands at an early, period of your session. The act above referred to provides for the sale of such lands only as were held by preemption claims, and authorizes the person holding their right, to come forward, prove and pay for the esme within one year from the date of the proclamation of the Governor, at the rale of one dollar and twenty five cents per acre.

In consequence of this restriction imposed on the purchase of these lands, only a small portion of them have been told. I recommend such an amendment to thia act, as will authorize the eale of any part of the selected lands whether held by Dre-einpiion or otherwise. Closely connected with this subject, is that of internal improvements by (his Mate. Should the General Assembly adopt the suggestion made in another part of thia communica lion, relative to the appropriation of a portion of the money arising troin the tales ol the lands above referred to, tor the purpose or indemnilying to the seminary and State school funds, the amount which they may have lost by being in vested in bank stock, there would doubtless still be a large sum remaining to be expended in such objects of internal improvements as shall be deemed most expedient; among these the most important, it is believed, it the improvement of the Usage and North brand rivers- These two rivers present in my opinion, very strong claims to the consideration ol the Legislature. ihou2h doubtless there are meny other ob jects on which a portion of thit fund may be wary beneuually expended.

In conclusion, I trust that your deliberations itdbv be attended with haimony, and that your action may prove beneficial to (he best interests of 'the people or the Mate. M. M. MARMADUKE. Cut or JtrrtBson, Nov.

The Delaware Journal of the 15th inat. announces there-suit of (he election in that State to be the choice of Clay Electors, a Whig Governor, a Whig Representative in Congress, and iwo-thirds of the State Legislature. The thfijority for the Clay Electors is about 200 THE TIMES.

A SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1844. WHIG MEETING. We are requested to any there will be a meeting of the Whigs of Howard county in this place, on Saturay, the 14th Decem ber. It it to be Imped there will be a full mee ting of the whigson that day. There will be several speeches delivered on the occasion.

The "BAJxEn," which has been awarded to the gallant whigs of Chariton Town ship, for their patriotic exertions in the late canvass, will be presented on that day. Matters of importoncc to the Whigs of the county, call for a meeting, and we hope the call will not be disregarded. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

20th, 1844. Mxssbs. Bimbos Greek As suggested in my last, the election of two Senators to Con gress took place this evening, and Mr. Atchison received one hundred and one votes, there being no one put in nomination against him, and was therefore declared duly elected to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Dr. Linn, only two years of which term have expired.

After that election, Gen. Monroe of Morgan, put in nomination Col. Benton Tor the regular term of six years, to commence on the fourth of March next. Senator Anderson of St, Louis, nominated Mr. English of the Southern part of the State, for the same place, at which there was quite a fluttering amongst the friends of Mr.

Ben ton; but all their fears were groundless, for Mr. Benton received 71 votes of the whole number given, which was one hundred and thirty one. The amusement of the day, however, was in the morning. Mr. Hough of Scott county intro duced a string of resolutions, the object of which was to instruct our Senators and request our Rep.

resentatives on the subject of the annexation of Texas; the object of the mover was to go into a full discussion of these resolutions, prior to the election of U. S. Senators: but as these resolu tions professed to be concurrent on the part of both Houses, under the rules they lay over one day. The resolutions from the Senate to go into the election of Senators then coming up, Mr. Hough moved to postpone their consideration until half past two o'clock on to morrow, and upon that motion there was a good deal of warmth in debate between Mr.

Hough, a soft on the one side, and Messrs. Hug lies of Platte, Reynolda of Jackson, Richmond of Marion, and Bay of Franklin, on the other. I thought the whig members seemed to enjoy it very much; they told each other of all the bad things they respectively knew. Some of the whiga tried, by raising questions of order, and calling for the ayes and nee, on every question, to obtain delay, but it would not do, the trained were faithful to their leaders, and ihey had the power in numbers. On this morning a joint committee from the two Houses waited upon Gov, Edwards and Lt.

Governor Young, and escorted them to the Hall of the House, where the oatha of office were ad- ministered by Judge Morrow, in the presence of the two Houses after which Gov. Edwards de. livered hia Inaugural Address: about the merits of which I know but little; not having heard but a small portion of it but if yoij will have my opinion, from whet I heard, it it a cold, dead, monotonous affair. After the election of Senators was over thit evening, an invitation to tho members of the two Houses was given by the Prelident of the Senate, from the Speaker's Chair, to aVine party to be given by Senatora Atchison and Benton, at the house of Col. Price: Mr.

Benton, however, is not here, having started for Washington before the meeting of the General Assembly. From tht roaring of cannon on Capitol Hill, and (he shouting fur Tolk in the streets to Bight, obi might conclude that dtmocrary wat feeling little jolly at the success of Polk and Benton. The regular standing committeea of the two Houses havo not yet been appointed, but the election being now over, the members will not be under such a perpetual state of eicitement, and will be ready in a day or two to go to work. K. NOVEMBER 23, 1844.

But little of interest has occurred in either branch of the Generol Assembly since my last. To day, however, a new project for party mischief haa shown itself in both Houses. Dr. Fori, of the Senate gave notice that on Monday next he would introduce a bill to repeal the act passed at the last session, for the call of a Convention to amend tbe Constitution of the State. Also, similar notice, I understand, was given in the House, by a Mr.

Patterson, of Jackson county. Both these gentlemen are said to be of the faith, ful, and what their object can be I know not. But one thing seems pretty certain, that at the late election the people of the State intimated by a popular majority of about twenty five thousand that they desired the holding of the Convention, and if these gentlemen will peraist in their opposition to the Convention bill, and vote against it, they will at least give some evidence of pretty good nerve. However, there is some speculation, to the effect, that these gentlemen wish to scare somebody into a support of the proposed Constitutional amendments, which, by the way, were not passed at the last session by the constitutional majority of two thirds, nor were they published as required by the constitution: but by their immediate pas. sage, the new Governor will have soma fine subjects to decapitate, in the persons of Supreme and Circuit Judges.

For instance, there is Judge Scott, on the bench of the Supreme Court; the Old Horse; Judges Ryland, Cook, Young, and all others, who, in the exercise of the right of suffrage, may have chosen to vote against him. What a beautiful spectacle, lhat! to see John C. Edwards, our new Governor, sating his private and personal resentment on such a man as Judge Scott! The one in office by the mere concurrence of a thousand little circumstances, to be used by those who put him there: The other an ornament to the Judiciary of the State, who maintains the dignity and independence of the bench. Many of the better informed suppose that to have the power in tho hands of the Governor, to bestow these few places on hungry expectants about the first of January, was the true desire of those who manifest a wish to repeal the Convention bill. Threats are now going the rounds here that the democracy will defeat the Convention bill, and also establish many new counties at this session, unless the whigs go for the Constitutional amendments.

And there are now some half dozen billa pending in the House for the establishment of new counties. Thus it is that the whigs, in to get the democracy to vote for the call of a Convention, are to disregard the obligations of their oaths to support the Constitution, in voting for the Constitutional amendments, which were not gotten up, nor have they been carried on since, in the mode and manner ia which that stcred instrument, by its own provisions, can be amended. But if the original proposition to amend the Constitution had been gotten up and supported by two thirds of both Houses of the last General Assembly, and had afterwards been published in all the newspapers printed in the State as required, it would still be a most mistaken policy for the older and larger counties to pass the amendments now, in view of the expected sitting of the Convention next fall; for, admitting that you desire the very thing proposed in tbe amendments, so do the new counties many of the people of whom supported the call of a Convention for that very reason; yet, you desire also, the equalization of representation, and this they do not want. And when you pass tbe amend ments the new and small counties have achieved all they desired when they voted for the call of a Convention, and from that moment they will throw every obstacle in the way of the proposed Convention. But upon the grounds first referred to, the amendments cannot pass either House- so that all the inducement which existed at the August election to vote for the call of a Convention will be left out standing.

OrA portion of the loco focos of this place, had what they called a celebration, last Saturday night. We went abroad about 8 o'clock, and found a house here and there illuminated, and a considerable number of whites and blacks indiscriminately engaged in singing songs and making and listening to speeches. Had we not heard during the day that the locofocos were to have a celebration at night, we should have come to the conclusion it wat a negro j. llification, for which whiskey had been furnished, gratis. The illumination was by no means general; and in accounting for thit, the conclusion has irresistibly forced itself upon our mind, that there are those of the democratic party, who feel more of aorrow than joy, at the election of James K.

Ptlk Ibis, we are satisfied, is the case with tome about hern, and our exchanges speak of numerous instances of this character, in other parts of the country. We doubt net by the close of Mr. Polk's adminisiraiion, thousand! and thousands will regret, deeply regret, having aided his elec tion. THE "DEMOCRAT."

The "Missourian," Col. Benton's Organ, it of opinion that Mr. Wright, of New York, will be appointed Secretsry of State, and consequently the ruling spirit of tht administration, and tho candidate of the party for the Presidency in 1844. Tha "Reporter," which may be looked upon as the Organ of the new administration in thit Sute, thinks otherwise, and in speaking on this subject, In reply to the says: "Mr. Wright and hit friends are decidedly verdant if they imagine he will ever be nominated for the Presidency by the Democratic party.

His opposition to Texas, and to what he has been nleased to term "the extension or slavery, has thrown him into "the bock ground." We are glad (hat Mr. Wright has been elected Governor, though we think the increased vote given for him came from the Abolitionist. We neither want him in Ihe Senate, nor in any Department of the Government, unless he shall first change his views and advocate the immediate annexation of Texas." The "New York Tribune," which seems to know what it is talking about, says: "John C. Calhoun, it is well understood, is to continue Secretary of State under James K. Polk, tnd is to be the master-spirit of the new Adminis.

(ration. Tbe wholosouled champions of Texas and Free Trade are determined to have it well understood that this victory is theirs, and that they are to reap the fruits of it." The New York Herald says "In the House of Representatives Mr. Calhoun will, without doubt, re-organize the democratic party on tht principles decided upon by the people in tne recent election, and so will form and snap every thing, as almost to compel Mr. Polk, when he reaches the White House, on the 4th of March next, to assume all the ground that they have prepared for hi in, with the additional assumption of Mr. Calhoun in the Cabinet itself.

If this should be the case, the ascendancy of the South Carolina statesman, with all his views, will be placed beyond the possibility of a doubt in the cotoins administration; and we do not see by what means, or in what way, Mr. Van Buren and his friends can prevent the success of the South Carolina policy." Jefferson Citt, Nov. 23d, 1811. Messrs. Bbnbom Green: We have passed the Brut week of the sessicn here, and the Locus have had a full opportunity to rejoice over all their victories, and I must say the opportunity has not been lost by them.

Von have doubtless been advised of the organization of the two houses; choice of officers, die. But little has been done as yet and of that, much of it, of no sort of importance. Coming events are said to cast their shadows before, and if it ke so, some things brought forward to day, may have an important bearing upon the interest of the people. Mr. Fort in the Senate, to-day, gave notice of his intention, at an early day, to introduce a bill to repeal the act of last session for the call of a Convention.

The same notice was given by Mr. Patterson of the House; thus it will be seen that the Locos intend, if possible, to defeat the meeting of a Convention. This has tften been charged against them by the Whigs, and denied bythem; but it is now quite apparent that such is their object. The amendments to the Constitution, proposed by the last Legislature, have been called up, bat no final vote taken. Those in relation to the Judiciary will be defeated.

Mr Wilson of Randolph, gave notice of his intention to introduce a Bill to establish Probate Courts in the several counties of this State. Mr. Gamble introduced a Bill to repeal the odious tax law. Some four or five Bills have been introduced to organize new counties. Mr.

James of Green, presented six or eight petitions for divorces. The class of measures passed by the Inst Legislature, generally called rtlief laws, will all be re pealed, and it is my impression we will return to the three term system of holding Circuit Courts, and monthly as to Justices' of the Peace; such appears to be the prevailing opinion here. at present- Various resolutions have been offered, most of thtm of an unimportant character. The Legislature has beer, beset with a host of office seekers; it was said here that the autn'icr was greater than on any former occasion, many had come in for the reward for long services to the party; others desiring the first instalment for their desertion of sound and correct and others who appeared to have no claims at all, merely hoping against hope, all full of democracy and anxious to serve tho people. Most of the office seekers have found to their cost that the offices are dispensed by a few to their fuvorites, without much regard to services previously ren dered.

Mr. Bnggs has introduced into the Senate a Bill to establish the fifth branch of the Bank at Independence. Tbe House has appointed a committee on Re vision of ten members, to act jointly with a committee from the Senate. The exciting subjects of districting the State end the disposition of the proceeds of the 500.000 acres of land, have not yet been brought forward. The prospect is, that we will have a long Session; whether of much profit to the State, remains to be seen.

Respectfully, Tennessee. The Nashville Whig of the 19th, gives returns from the whole State, making Mr. Clay's majority 171. The re turns from four of the conntiea are not official, bat they are said to be correct. The Nashville Union, the Tulk organ, ad mits the State has gone for Clay.

Mr. Clay't majority in Vermont will be about 5,000. OHIO OFFICIAL. The official return of the vote in Ohio for Presidential electors, gives Cloy 155 133; Pulk Birncy 3.050. Clay's majority 6,052.

Massachusetts. The Boston Atlas, of the 14th inst. says: The majority of the State of Massachusetts against Polk, Dallas, and free trado is Tho majority against Van Buren in 1840, was Louisiana. Polk will receive tTie vote of this State by a small majority. Some eight hundred illegal votes were polled in one parish! Mr.

Polk' majority will be less than the illegal vote in this one parish. Maylai. Mr. Clay's majority, ofTi-cist, 0,309. Foolur F.

is rumored that tht electors of Pennsylvania have addressed a letter to James K. Polk, to the effect that, if he will not support tho Tariff of 1842, they cannot cast their votes for him. Another story has been going round that Governor Porter has refused to sign the election returns, in consequence of gross frauds that have been committed in Philadelphia and Eerks counties; nothing of the kicd is required of him, and if it were, he would he the list one to refuse. These reports have not the least foundation in truth. Rhode Island.

The idlicial returns give Mr. Clay a majority of 2.475. ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS will be paid to any man who will impart exact information ns to which wing of the democratic party will have the letting of the federal offices under Polk's administration. Fayette Office-Seekers. NEW ORLEANS MARKET.

Nov. 16. The business of our market c-innot yet be said to hove opened any general activity. Many articles of western producriou usuaily taken f'r export, are still too limited in supply and too high in price to admit of any very extensive operations, though accounts of a considerable rise in the principal rivers of the west lead us to expect speedy and liberal accessions to our stocks by arrivals ol steamboats and flat boats.
