This law was passed ebrough the influence of the bank debtors, to save their property, but was adjudged unconstitutional by the Vaited States Supreme Court. The debate in the Il linois Legislature evinces, however, a disposition to enforce that valuation law, despite of the United States decision. The law allowed the creditor to select what property be would take under the forced valuation; a binds now about to Nos giving the debtor the right to select what he will part with at the valuation.

OF TEXAS 203,420,000 64,801,897 It appears that our City Councils have not the pow• er to appoint assistant regolators of streets and lots but, that -that power heiongs to our able and distin guished friend, R. E. M'Gowin, who is at present Recording regulator. Although Councils have exer cised this power by I.he authority of existing ordinan ces for many years, and the two appointed by them for the present year were Messrs eusting tind Pat ter,o3n, yet in place of Mr Heasti H ngs, Mr s M . Gowie ha. appointed his brother, and pesetas his Bit to Councils - for payment for services us assistant, and the Select Councils have submitted to M'G.'s better ijuogment of the legality and power of appointing the assistant regulators, and have approved of his annul ling the appointment of Mr Heastings, and ordered him to he paid. On Wednesday evening, in the Conncil, a very in teresting debate aro.e on this subject, viz: Whether tike Act of the S. and C. Councils of appointing Mr. Heastings Assistant Regulator was valid; or, the ap pointment made by M'Gowin, which was decided by a vote of 9to 8 that that of Mr. 0 was. From this it appears that Mr. Heastings has held the office illegally and had better take down his sien. They also decided by the same vote that Mr. M'Gowin had a right to lose the city's instruments and buy new cnes, and charge the city with them. Now, we hope fur the sake of consistency, that our Councils will abolish these ordinances, by which they exercise the power of appointing city Regulators. so that the Recording Regulator can heroaftor make his appointments witte out impediment. A WHIG. STORY or • NoT•D COLON'EL.--We find the fol lowing small yarn in the Buffalo Commercial, of a certain Colonel well known in the West. If we re member correctly, this is the same gentleman who agreed on a wager to throw a man over the Hudson river, and when he had pitched hint in, told the drip ping unfortunate, as be crawled ashore, that he only did that to heft him, but he'd fling him ovtr if he tried a week !' When the noted Col J—n some year* agn—hefore the day of railroads—was engaged as a solicitor fu d rl vehicular conveyances in Mien, his eloquence an confident assnrantes that stages for the west would start in "about twenty minutes," - so won upon a num ber of passengers, who had been half stifled on board a crowded canal packet from Schenectady, that they' were induced to leave the boat for the more speedy conveyance pt omitted them. After waiting an hour or tv, o and seeing no signs denoting departure, their pa tience and good temper each moment getting nearer zero, they began to think of their agreeable friend the Colonel. He was at last found in the enjoyment of a control table snooze, and when roused was overwhelm ed with a torrent of reproaches, which wound up at la.st with charging him with downright lying.

' FROM THE CHEROKEE COUNTRY. ' The Tahlequah Chernitee Advocate of the 12th ult. says: ••We understand that the Grocery keepers of Evans: vale, wboe village fur some time past,from the fre quent murders occurring there, had well nigh deserv ed the appellation of a slaughter pen fur Indians,have cornet° the solemn resolution - to sell no intoxicating liquors whatever, to any Indian, for two months. If, at the expiration of that time, they observe any abate• moot of crime, to prolong their resolution. We are glad txt hear it. The resolution is a good one, and should be continued in force--not for two or twelve months, but forever. IF they and their neighbors nei ther sell nor treat, quiet will take the place of brawls, and peace, instead of blood, flow along their streets." A Cherokee was frozen to death while in a state of intoxication, about a week previous. Snow fell en the sth, to the depth of four or five inches. One of Ow MOTU Killed.—lt is reported that Bean Starr, oee of the triumvirate, whose names have been made notorious by their diabolical deeds, was killed about two weeks ego, at the house of William ' Harris, in the Choctaw Nation.

On Wednesday last, a com mittee of anti-renters arrived at Hudson, and invited several citizens to attend a meeting in Gallatin the fol lowing day, for the purpose of addressing them.— They said they would surrender at liscretion. On the 481113 day many of the wheat rents were promptly paid by several of the most noisy anti-renters; and it is said there his been a public burning of many of their masks and dresses. In the Troy Budget of Friday. we find the following encouraging statement: , "We publish in another column the proceedings of a meeting held on Wednesday last, January I, by the citizens of Sandlako and the adjoining towns, having reference to the recent outrages committed in this coun ty. hinny of those who have hitherto been recognized WS leading anti-rent man were in attendance and took part in the p r oceedings. A large number of 'lndians' were also pres-nt, whether with or without their die. guises we arc left to conjecture, and. as will be seen by reference to the proceedings, they objec ed to thu passage of ,he resolutions in their original shape, but c .nsented to adopt them after certain modificetious. — The meeting passed off without any disturbance, and it seems to have excited a wholesome influence in the neighborhood where it was held. "We learn that a similar meeting wos held in the town of Bet lin on the estne day, at which resolutions were passed lamenting the recent outrage*, and that a corps of Indiana was that day disbanded This is certainly a good beginning for the year 1845, and we hope it will be followed up by other towns in the coun ty, until a general disposition to maintain the supre macy of the laws shall be manifested. There has evidently been a revolution in t h e public sentiment, and many who unquestionably felt themselves aggriev ed. and were led without doe reflection to become identified with the anti-runt movement, now see the true position they have taxopied, and are disposed to be , banded in future es good and peaceable citizens, rather than ineUrrectioaists who aro liable at any mo ment to be made the subjects of im?risontrieut or death."
