NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. From Odr Daily Exchanges. EMIT IN THE INDIANA CONVENTION. INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 21.—This afternoon a aaene occurred in Indiana State Convention, which' Is not over creditable to that body. The subject under consideration was the proposition to appoint three commissioners to revise and modify the laws, and to reform the mode of practise at law.— Many bard things were said against the legal pro fession generally, and Mr. ]lover, a delegate from Posey (who is a lawyer,) said he could put his finger on three men in the convention who expec ted to be appointed the commissioners. Some one called out "Name them ;" and a member sit ting near Mr. Hovey called out "Kent." Mr. Kent then rose, much excited, and called Mr. Hovey a "cowherd ;" whereupon Mr. Hovey advanced to Mr. Kent's seat, and struck him a blow in the eye. Both parties were immediately ordered into custody, and a long explanation took place amid great excitement. Finally, apologies were made, and, by a vote of the Convention the reporters were requested to smother the Whole affair. AMERICAN COLONIZATION SOCIETY. Waautirorotr, Jan. 22.—The American Colo nization Society met in this city last evening.— Hon. Henry Clay presided, and made an eloquent speech. Mess..

The confession will be published shortly after the exe cution. PITTSIMIGH, Jan. 24.—A number of persons have been arrested in Allegheny City, on suspi cion of being extensively engaged in counterfeiting. The proof against them is said to be very positive. Nair YORK, Jan. 35, No news yet of the Atlantic, but there is every confidence that she is safe. There is, however, touch anxiety about her. ALBANY, Jan. 25. The New York Legislature have agreed to bal. let for U. S. Senator on the 4th of February next BALTIMORE, Jan. 25.—The Express Office ofl Adams & Co., at Richmond, was entered on Wed nesday night and robbed of notes and drafts to the amount of $1,600. The robbery was effected by i blowing open the safe with powder. A package containing $5OO, was overlooked by the thieves. About a dozen prisioners have made their escape from the Ellicott Mills Jail. Two have since been arrested. There were several negro stealers. LE44ISLATION. The Legislature has .w been in session nearly three weeks, and the most important business has undoubtedly been brought to the attention of the members. A very large number of private bills have been introduced and reported, but none, with the exception of the Reading railroad hills, of spe vial interest; and one of these, the bill of Mr. Simpson, to pre4nt the company from declaring and paying dividend until the debts which fell due last winter be paid, is rendered unimportant by the actual declaration and payment of a dividend since tl:e bill was introduced. The public bills of particular interest to be acted upon, are, the one to divide the State into Judicial districts, and fix the salaries of the judges, and the one to establish a free baking system. These will undoubtedly occupy considerable time, or we could with confidence count upon a short session. still it is not believed the session will be long. Mr. Muhlenberg has introduced a measure into the Senate, which appears to us to be wise. It is to publish annually two columns of the acts one to contain the acts of a public nature to be dis tributed to the Judges and public officers as is now done; and the other to contain only private acts, such as concern individuals, municipal and other corporations, These last to be officially published but not distributed unless purchased by parties who want them. As it now is our annual volume of Laws is cumbersome, and a large proportion of it not of interest to the public. The proposition of Mr. Muhlenberg will obviate the necessity of fre quent Digests, which burden the profession and the There aro but few applications for bank charters or for change of charters already granted. Should the Free banking law pass it will work a renora tion of our banking system. There are a few divorce bills which have been introduced, but none of them of public interest.— These were all disposed of last winter. The session bids fair to be a pleasant one, to the members, and without that excess of party spirit which has characterized some of the past years.— The feeling is favorable to the protection of the interests of the State, with a gradual hut generous progression in improvements and reforms. The men of talent in both Houses are liberal in their tievre, and we believe all the branches of the gov ernment are likely to co-operate to advance the welfare of the people.—Pa Telegraph. A rite. Yon 1111. SINKING Fl:Nl3.—The Phila delphia Ledger says that Judge Sharswood gave a verdict in favor of the Commonwealth against the United States Bank for $1,203,750. With costs and interest, in round numbers, $1,300,000. The suit was brought to recover the hundred thousand dollars annually, which the Bank, by its charter, agreed to pay as a bonus to the School Fund for twenty years. The suit will, of course, be carried to the Supreme Court, and will, no doubt, be warmly contested, as there will be an effort to make this judgement take precedence oar the assignments. For the poor ghsrehelders there mime bat little hope. EMCTS or Mamma—Two CHILDREN TER. WIRD TO Warm—About three weeks since two ehilskr enn es4l t onging to a man named Brown, for m er at the Globe Hotel, Exmouth, the one fintr4ed the other five years old, were sent by the nftliher, who kept a mangle, after a basket of dotter:and were met on the Way by some boys one of whom had on a most hideous looking mask. The boy seeing the children frightened, ran after them, repeating some gibberish, which frightened thecermore, and having followed them until they tumid the corner, of the street, transferred the mask to another boy, who managed again to come in contact with the poor children, who returned home instantly, when their parents, seeing them so pale and trembling very much, inquired what the matter was, which they explained as well at they could. The shock, however, was so great that they never recovered, and their health declined daily. The one died three weeks after, and the other died tome days later. Each of them in his illness often exclaimed : "He is coming !" "I see him !" "There he is !" with other like ex pressions.—Exeter Gazette. MARRIED. On Thursday, the 16th, by Rev. L. P.

On Friday the police of Philadelphia arrested a man by the name of Daniel Tarr, and found at his house, secreted away in a bottle, eight different descriptions of counterfeits, amounting in all to some three thousand dollars. There were tens of the Northumberland Bank ; tens of the Miners' Bank at Pottsville ; fives of the Lebanon Bank ; fives of the Bank of Delaware ; fives of the Bank of the Valley of Virginia; fives of the Harris-, burg Bank ; threes of the Delaware City Bank ; and twos of the Farmers' Bank of Lancaster.— These last named are " Relief" issues, and the whole hatch are said to be well executed. Some of the counterfeits named have been noticed be- I fore, and there is scarcely • doubt that they have been widely distributed for circulation. The pub lic, and especially small dealers, should keep a sharp lookout, as it is almost impossible for the press to furnish descriptions of the many attempt ed frauds as fast as they appear. LEBANON BANK COUNTERFETT.—SOME fresh fives have made their appearance ou this bank, hut they arc so wretchedly executed that the most careless examiner must detect theta. The words "Lebanon Bank" are crooked. LANCARTER BANK COUKTKRFEIT.—A connter terfeit 5 Relief issue, on the Lancaster Bank, is in circulation. The following description of it we find in Thompson's Bank Note Reporter: "Ss, good imitation of genuine relief notes—vignette State House with figure 5 on a medallion head each side of it—medallion head and three figure s's on each end—some of the letters of ' LaneKs ter' touch the medallion on the lea of the vig nette—not so in the genuine." This is a danger ous counterfeit—look out for it. DAM:IEIIOM COUNTERTEIT.-A new and dan gerous counterfeit upon the Notes of the Harris burg Bank, has just been detected, It is describ ed as follows;—l's, re-issue, relief, letter A. These notes are most admirably done, and are exceedingly difficult to detect. Appear to he a very fine lithograph. The delicate lines that are so distinct on the medallions of the genuine, are in the counterfeit irregular, thick, and the spaces between nearly filled op with ink instead of being open. The centre vignette is almost without a defect. The margins are not so perfect. The letters in the word Clerk" are not of the same size as in the genuine. The " Co. in " Dan 'forth.
