Monday Morning. Nov. 5. 1538-

The events we have so often predicted. are
‘now matter [of history-the Canadians have
‘again risen in open rebellion. evidently under
-more efficient ‘organization. and Martial Law
was yesterday proclaimed in this province for
-the second time in.-’ the short space of twelve
months. Most alarming intelligence reached

 yestotidav forenoon, that the whole coun-

ti‘-Cy was in a state ofinsurrectiomaud that many
loyalists have been murdered in cold blood in
the county of Acadie. Further accounts but
too painfully corroborated the {previous rumor.
Ind a considerable hotly of troops was tlcspatch-
-ed to that county. The steamer Princess Vic-
-toria. which took over a detachment ofthe Roy-
» al Artillery on Saturday afternoon to Laparaire.
-was twice‘ set on fire by the rebels while at the
wharf, but fortunately escaped without muclt in-
urv.
The loyalists in Laparaire. had ten minutes
‘notice to leave the village. and getting on board a
thcsteamer Britannia. they have arrived in town
in safety. Yesterday morning. about two
‘o'clock. a party o_f400 rebels attacked the house
of Mr. L‘. Biown at Beauharnois. and after
about twenty minutes fighting, Mr. Brown. Mr.
Ellice. M. P., Mr. Norval. Mr. Ross. and the
other Conslitutioiialists surrendered themselves
prisoners. and nothing more atprcsent is known
of their fate. Mrs. Ellice, Miss Balfour. and
the other females in the house at the time. took
pgfijgp in the cellar during’ the engagement.
Mr. Brown and Mr. Ross are both wouitded.
Yesterday forenoon. an Indian woman at the
yillagg of Caiighuawaga, who was seeking for a
gtray cow. discovered '1 large hotly ofarriied inert
in the woods. and gave information of the cir-
cumstance to the Intlians who were then as-
sembled at church. They immediately seized
what arms they could procure. such as riiuskets.
tomshawks. and pitchforlts, and giving the war
"whoop. charged their foes, who scampered otfas
fast as they coitld. throwing down their arms as
‘they fled. Ssvcntylive were taken prisoners.

suppoflltd that they are not far off. Tltc gates
of the different barricades were closctl. and strong
‘picqticts placed toguard them. Roiiilorcements
oftroops were sent to various quarters of the
District. At Beaultiirnois the rebels took pos-
session of the Steamer Brougliam, on_her way to
Lacliine with the mail on board. It is currently
reported that during the engagement, Mr. John
McDonald. while leading on a party of Dragoons
against the rebels, was shot dead, five bullets
having pierced his body. His Excellency Sir

JACKSONVILLE, (Ind.) Sept. 28. 1838.
-Gentlemen—Being disappointed in attending
your celebration. I beg leave to say that I rejoice

‘ tion in this district; antl more. if possible do I
rejoice at the success of the Whigs in sentling a
majority of both houses to the next Legisla-
ture; for bad as things are at Washington. I
think our _a£fairs in the state are even more de-

nl°wb|e.- . . v _
You say yours is a celebration of Wltigs and
Conservatives. To me party names are of but

little consequence. ‘ I commenced my political’
career a Demo,cr_at,,itnid continued to claim that
name so long as that party 8.C.l.B[l upon the prin-
c,;,,ie3.wit,l_t which they set out; but since they
have abandoned them, I am ready to join any
p_artv, careless of its name. advocating true dem-
qcraiic republican principles, such as I have ever
adhered to. Whenl learned my principlies of
 Democracy. that party was in favor of a cheap
and economical Government,and we turned Mr.
Adams out for expending $13.0000«00.0 pefann.
Mr. Van Buren, the leader ofthe present domi-
nant party, has increased the expenses ofGo.vsrn-
inept from $13,000,000 to $39,000,000 per artii.
It was then considered dangerous and anti-re-
ppblicari for pitbli_c oliicers to interfere with elec-
tions. It is now made a part of their duty, and

gt. ry of having been.elected by the p.er.sonal'in-

ed as refractory subordinates; “which policy has
removed all those checks and balances that have

real. Such policy must soon reduce the public
officer to the condition of an abject palace Slave-
Tlle law and constitution. as construed by the
courts, was then held sacrcd by all. and consid
ered by the 'Democrats'cspecially. to be the miiin
bulwark of our liberties. and their strict observ-
mice as the best protection ofthe weak and poor
from the oppression of the arbitrary and the
rich. The president, claintirtg to be the great
head of the Democrv-ttic Party, has advised and
fully sanctioned the doctrine ofhis predecessor.
in administering the laws according to his own
judgment, and violates them and the Constitution
whetiever in thewrty of his ambitious grasp after
power The freedom ofCongress and the free-
dom of the press were then considered by that
party as the great palladiums of our liberty.-
Its leaders do not new hesitate to bribe and
corrupt both, by the most shameful and barcfaced
bcstowment of high public ofliccs upon Merit-
bers efCongress and editors of newspapers,to
an extent never known before in our country,
for the manifest pupose of rewarding their ser-
vility in obtaining support for the party.
When I belonged to this party it professed
to be jealous of every unauthorized exercise. of
power. It has since sustained the Executive
in his illegal removal of the public money from
the custody of the law to depositories of his own
arbitrary selection, and it now sustains the
same power in its extraordinary effort to get
cntire possession of the public money by which
the purse, in violation of the soundest princi-
ples of prudence, as well as against the Consti-
tation and spirit of our free Government, will
be controlled by a power which does not only
command the armed forces of the country, but
holds it despotic sway over thousands of depend-
ent. servilc mercenaries. who are taught to sup-
port his authority, and his bidding at their peril.
Since most of the old blue light Hartford Con-
vention Federalists have become patent Demo-

nainc. Iknow it in my own feelings; for never
could I consent to yield my claim to be a Demo-
crat until I ‘saw the old Federalist changed, as
it were, by it magician’s wand, into the most
loyal power loving Democrat. Then what shall
I call myself—Whig ‘.1 Yes, if Whig means
new as it did fifty years ago—-the true friend
oflibcrty, who could not be bribed orintimidated
by tltc favor or threats of power. If Conserva-
tive means such as are striving to wrest the
Govet-iiinent from the hands of those who, from
an unholy ambition, from fear. contempt, or
from ignorance of the machinations of their lead-
ers, are plunging the country into min. then
I also claim to be it Consert ativc.

Although the “ political lizard” that has crawl-
ed to the summit of the column is already seen
skulking down under the frowns of an infuriated
and insulted People. the fritnds of law and con-
stitutional restraints will hate much to do in cor-
recting and eradicating the dangerous precedents
and usurpations of those who have been in pow-
er for the last eight or ten years.

Allow me gentlemen. in conclusion, to offer
the following sentiment, believing it will be
acceptable to all those who desire reform oftlte
present abuse of Government: ~

H]-ZRY CLAv—'l‘he best hope of his country.
He knows her true interests, and ltas the honesty
and lirninessto inaiittain them.

DUCT. A. HILL, Surgeon Dentist, having

taken the room formerly occupied as a
Probate Oflice. a few doors west ofthe Bridge,
designs to make it a permanent stand for tire
practice ofhis profession. ’

He cannoi but feel a degree ofembarrassment.
in thus coming before the public—nieeting as he
does. on every ltand. the just censure that has
been provoked by the gross iin positions practiced
by unpriucipled pretenders to the science of
Dentistry. _Notwithstanding the names Dentist
and Rascal have “almost become synonymous,"
he. still believes there are some redeeming
characters in the profession. and hopes to be
able to secure the respect and patronage of an
enliglttened corriniunity. V

Every individual who regards a good set of
teeth, should have them examined. at least once
in six or twelve months, by a judicious Dentist,
and proper measures taken to preserve them;
much pain and suffering as well as incon-
venience may be prevented by these means.
