| Mr Editor-Itis gratifying, no doubt, to the peo pie of this State to know that their Representative is one of the most useful members of Congress.

 Since the present session commenced, Gov. YELL has not only acted distinguished part on every ! question of importance; but, without dIsparagemen to others it is but justice to say that he has accom- plished more for his constituents, than was eve done, before, in the same length of time. 1 nigh not have thought necessary to call public attention to this fact had not attempts been, recently, made through the Whg organ of this city, and its echoes in other portions of the State, to disparage the vices of Gov YELL. But as these attempts have been made, in the face of truth and common homes. ty, ask the space in your paper to present plan unvarnished, true statement of factS-which, while they defy contradiction reflect the highest credit upon the ability, industry and fidelity of our Repre- sentative.

 His efforts to sustain the honor and interests oi the nation, in the passage of the Resolution termin ating the joint occupancy of Oregon, and in assert ing title to the whole of that country are worthy of an American Statesman. His support of the Bill, placing our financial systemon the surest foundation, and in conformity with the principles of true demo- cratic republican government, is evidence that he properly appreciates these principles, and that the interests of the people are safe in his hands. His agencyin giving increased strength to our Army, and thus placing it in condition to afford proper pro- lection to the country, especially 10 Hc citizens o our erPoSed frontier is deserving Of the highest praise. He has, moreover, succeeded in procuring an appro- praton of One Hundred und fifty thousand doliars for tbe m of tbs of oaI l-comment upon the importance and value of this appropriation its importance to every interest in the State To the farmers t secures the facilities of convenient and good markets for their produc- tions-while it invites emigrants to the State who will purchase our lands, increase the value of pro- perty, and developc the resources of the country It IS hoped that Senators wilisucceed in getting this appropriation through the Senate, Gov Yell has done through the House.

 BAt more. Soon after Gov. Yell left Congress, some six years since, FORT WAYNE on our western Frontier, abandoned, and no troops have, since then, been kept there; until the 9th of April Gov. Yell, by an urgent application to the War Depart ment, has succeeded in having it re occupied. This was greatly desired by citizens on the frontier, as a proper and necessary means of protection and defence for persons and property, where, without it. there Is constant liability to nroads and disturbance from the neighboring savages. Contrast this act, alone, to say nothing of many others of similar character, with the charge recently made against him, by reckless and unprincPe print, that he is unfaVoIable to the defence of frontier. Let the people say who has done his duty, and who shall be condemned

 He has been unremittins, and to considerable extent, successful, in extending our mail facilities which had received a considerable check by the new post office Law.

 He made aygorous effort to have something like justice done to the Northern division of our State, by the appropriation of TUenty fpe Thousand doHars for the improvement of White and Black Rivers This IS what should have bee done-the people in that part of the State entitled to it. as an act oi simple justice. Il is to be regretted that this noble effort, to procure it for them, was unsuccessful. But his failure is this instance will not check his exertions-but will stimulate him to increased, and

 have no doubt, successfule Iorts at the next ses- sion of Congress-

 Ifseryices such as these, added to many years devoted to their welfare do not eatitle pabe ser want to the respect and confidence and affection of the people, am at loss to conjecture what would.

 ONE OF THE PEOPLE.
