Her debt for making a large canal. The property tax was, as in Penn-| Ci of interest has been abso: Out of the money which has come in she has, dur the last year, paid the out- FO" fi rears. Illinois failed to pay in January, 1842. She contracted undertaking works far beyond her means, and she was defrauded by parties she employed to negotiate her loans to the extent of $3,000,000, chiefly by the Morris Canal Company. She is now making arrangement with her creditors, and propores to tex to pay the interest on half of the debt. The measures for purpose are now un- der consideration. Michigan failed in January, 1842. She contracted a debt to the extent of $5,000,000, and after receiving pay- ment for rather more than $1,000,000, she sold the re- mainder of the bonds authorized by acts of her Legisla ture to the United States Bank and Morris Canal Compa- ny upon credit. The bonds were, by agreement, deliv- | ered to those companies, with power to sell them ; but the State was to be paid by instalments of fixed amounts every three months. Those companies both failed when they had paid rather more than half the amount ; but long before their failure they had borrowed money upon the whole of them in Europe. The lenders knew nothing of the terms upon which the bonds had been obtained, or that they had not been fully paid for, and they advanced monoy (othe extent of 8 per cent upon them. It is clear that those companies had a full right thus to dis. pose of them; but Michigan now asserts that she is not bound to acknowledge more then she has received money for, and has also set up the most extraordinary pretence, that she has a right to deduct from what she has received 25 per cent. upon the sum remaining due from the com- panies, and to deduct this amount (about $550 000) from the claims of the bondholders. Setting aside all the con siderations of the engagements which her bonds contain, she passed an act to offer new bonds for the reduced amount paid in this arbitrary and extroordinary manver, and last year passeia further act to sell the State rail- road, and to receive in payment the bonds, with their ar- and acase of more flagrant dishonesty has never existed The debt of the State is $7,000 000. Ot this $2,000 000 is | cou forthe State’s subscription, for her portion of the capital | ticl of the Planters’ Bank. After an attempt on tho part of s | no faw to deny this debt, it has been acknowledged, but not | hae and of it. The other $6,000,000 of tne debt wore contracted last for the State’s portion of the capital of the Union Bank. atter the bonds had been more than two years in circu lation, and acknowledged by herself.

From what we learned yesterday morning, we have not the slightest doubt but that an attack will be made out of the control of bad remy and were, in contem- plation of law, delivered to Riley and Walker.

The steamboat Sam Dale, from Lake Providence, brought down from Vicksburg yeaterJay afternoon, three companies of the socond regiment of Mississippi Volun- teers, under command of Col. R. Davis. They consist of Monroe Velunte ptain Acker, 92 rank and file ; Lowndes Guar pt. Blaythes, 89 rank and file; Choc. taw Volunteers, Capt. Elder, 00 rank and file. Those companies all went down the river to the battle ground, we understand, where they will bo joined by their com- rades in a few days, and remain for drill till their depar- ture. the plaintiffs replevied them. Mr. Dixon, a wit- ness for the defendant, testified that “' the standing of Ritey & Walker was good for their liabilities. The plaintiffs connot, therefore, repose themselves w the Goa to stop the goods in transitu ; an indispensable ing: edient to constitute this right, the insolvency of the vendeo, being wanting. Were the goods, when they were attached, in the eye of the law, in the plaintifs’ possession and under their control? ‘Independently of the usage attempted to be proven in this case, the law upon this point seems con- Clusive in favor of the plaintiffs. The receipts delivered to the cartman as he delivered the loede of to the mate of the vessel, acknowledged that they wer? receiv- od fromthe plaintiffs. This brings the present case clearly within the principle of the case of Craven and another vs. Ryder, 6, Taunton 433, which seems to be recognised as good authority, oy the most approved ele- mentary writers. Lord Tenderdon, in his work on ehip- ping, (Abbot Cart. B. 630) “It sometimes happens that gooda intended for exportation, are sold under a contract to deliver them on board of a vessel mamed the buyer. In such acase, the seller may retain property by taking a r ipt for them from the person in charge of the ship, #0 long as he keeps the re- ceipt in his own hands, the shipment not being under such circumstances a complete delivery to the buy- er. Ho further observes, that the vendor will also retain his right to the goods as against the mas- ter of the ship, if he demand a receipt in his own name at the time of the shipment, although the receipt be not delivered, and the master, afterwards, sign and deliver a bill of lading to the buyer, who becomes insol vent before the departure of the ship. Chief Justice Abbot, (Abbot on Shipping, 898,) after stating the practice of taking receipts trom the master or person on board of the vessel, further remarks, that the mastor must make out his bill of lading, according to the direction of the shipper of the goods or tho holder of the m the New Orleans Tropic, Jan. 15 to 19 tl he government have,within a few dave: cha to M siana rey cond Mi ‘The South Carolioa regiments will embark w It is conjectured that theso troops will rendezvous at Tampico, preparatory to an attack on Vera Cru: The ships Ondiaka, and Sharon left the city la: for Fort Jac! night n, to take on board a part of the Louisiana teers.

Hed Riley and Walker designated or directed the vessel by which the goods were to be forwarded, and hed the plaintiff’, pursuant to such direction, put the goods on board of such versol, with a bill of lading for Riley and Walker, the plaintiffs’ case would have been entirel! different from the one now presented.
