Wasatineton, Jan.

The indi- cations which have beeo given here, (in Wash- ing'on,) since the assembling of Congress, are 10 significant to be misonderstood. The Con- version at Baltimore, will have nothing to de bat io register and proclaim the edict of the Caucus io the Capitol In this state of things are we, who have so ‘fien testified. in the face of the world, oor deep n4 earnest convictions of the fatal and demor— alizing tendencies of Mr Van Buren’s whole sys- litiea? action to gta anids shih’ tpided arins, and shrink into an inglosioge, almost erid, treagonable neutrality, becanee of some dif- ferences of opinion on questions of pablic policy, from Mr Clay, which a wise spirit of modera- iin, and the recognized arbuirament of the pub- lie will, are daily psrrowing in magnitude and extent, FE hombly think not.

It was the fashion, 5 few years ago, for “democratic” orators and seribblers to dee nonace the Whigs 9¢ the ‘‘pie-bald” party, and to assert that Whiggerv meant diff -r- ent things in different places. But modern ‘democracy’ is decidedfy the hardest thiny to undetstand we have ever encountered— taking the profeared sentimente of the par- tyina lump. toe the veriest chameleon in natore, assuming every imaginable varie- ty of shade according to the part of the conntrs in which it is found; and it isthe mast difficn)t sort of thirg to find any two Sachems of the party who give the same definition of theterm. In some pasts of the Northern States, “democracy”? means ehc- luton and @ protective tariff, Ia some of the Sonthern States it means free trade; while in others it means protection of cot- ton and sugar. Ja Mississippi it means re- pudiation of honest state debts. In the Western States, according to Col. Benter, it means internal improvements by the Gen- eral Government, as far as Westera rivers are concerned—though the party, for the Issi fifteen years, in other parts, have kept np a most horrible din on this subjeet, on professed constitutional scruples. Io Cone gress, ‘‘democracy”’ is understood to mean a total disregard of laws passed by @ former Congress, and the admission of members to seats who have no shadow of right to them; together with a re-forcing of the fine imposed on Gen. Jackson far his lawless conduct at New Orleane What it means in North Carolina, Col.

VAN BUREN'S INCAPACITY AS A STATESVAN, We have recent!7 end brie fly given o few of the reasons. sm londly called for by « ‘portion of the. Loco Fuoco party, why the people of the State of New York had rea- sonto “dislike”? Mr. Van Boree, end why they would oppose his re-election fur causes applicable to them slone. These reasons extended on'y to hie conduct prior to his fracsfer°- to Washingfon by Gen. Jackson, on the.4 bof March, 1829. His subsequent history belongs to the whole coontry, and we therefore proceed to give a few reasons whe not only the State of New Yo k should dislike him, but why the people of the Unit- ed Stat s should discard him agin as they have discarded him once before. Aa the advocates of Mr. Van Buren may plead that he was not responsible for the eight years of Jackson’s administration, we pass over that entire period, at least for the present, and come down to tne time when he took the Presidential Chair. Out of his OWN Mouth it cen be proved, that since the foundation of this government there hss never been 8 Chief Magistrate so totally in competent'to conduct the effsire of the pa- tion as Mr. Van Buren. Out of his own moutb 1t can be proved that he was totelly ignorent 6p ihe qnestions of the currency, the resources, and the commerce of the country, the yrest and exeiting topics of the time of his administration. On constitu tional questions connected with these sub jects, if he held any opinions at all, no one could tell what they were, as in his official commuoications to Congress, he contradict. ed in one’message whathe had advanced in a previous one, and many times the con- tradietione were t6 be found in the same message. We proceed to give some of the history of his administration to prove these positions The constitutional term of service of Gen, Jscksoo expired on the 4th of March. 1837. Inflated with the vanity of being’ second Washington, the old gentleman pr lisbed a farewell address to the péup the United States; fol! of self-cone self—glos:fication. . In this eddress. he’ the people of the United Ststes:— ~~ “At the moment wheo I surreoder my az trust I leave this great people prosp Da re it, we ‘present an Tageresate of ha. man prosperity surely not elsewhere to be found.” On the eame day then, Gen. Jackson and Mr, Van Buren concurred in telling the people of the United States that they were enjoying the highest possible prosperity. — This was either troe, or it was not, and they “enher believed it, or they sesetied what they knew tobe false. Exther horn of the dilemma is equally fatal to Mr. Van Boren. For eharity’s sake, let us suppose the NS Ula Betieve whar tre se votdty-aseerte+ ed, and what every body else knew to be untrue; for at that time the conntry was suffering under the severest commercial pressure. What was the result? Io less than ninety days every bank in the United States had stopped specie psyments. The merchants, a3 2 general thing, had been al- so compelled to suspend—the Government funds were entirely cnt off, and the whole commerce of the United States was almost atan end; and all this state of things was brought about by the section of the Admin- istration, who bed found tho people three months before, “great, prosperous, and hap- py.”. This was the resol of ninety ays? fisenciering of the man who is now attemp- ing to procure resolutions passed all over the Unised States, in the primary meetings of the people, that be sdministered the Government with s> moch ability ! Consternation and amazement seized Mr. Van Buren and his Cabinet when they saw what the ninety day's work hed sceam- plished. Like Sampson of old,they-had pull. ed down the tower coutaining the Philistin- ie Whigs. but they also found themselves beneath its ruins. They whined, they moaned, ther apoln- gised, they pallisted, but they ‘could not re- medy the evil they had brought on the pub- lie, -Alter their firet terror was over they proceeded with their quack medicines unti! admitting that they could no longer carry on the Government, at the end of mx months an Extra Session was es!!ed ;—the Treasury was overwhelmed with demands which it could not satisfy ; the revenne de- tived from commerce bad ceased ; public confidence was at an en‘! ; the great staples of the coontry were nnsaleable, end she Ad- Minisiration wes eampelled to admit their inability any longer to carry on the Govern- ment; Mr. Van Buren in his Special Mes— sag? admitted that he knew of no remecy. end bad nothing to recommend except to bint at the sub-treasnre =-heme which Mr. Silas Wright in his wes tom had concocted, and which Mr. Woodbary in his peenliarly mild style had communicated to Congress. II's main relhance, however, seems to have been, if we may judge of the earnestness of bis recommendation in the following terme, an appeal to Congress to unite with him} “onder the pressure of difficulties in invok- ing the guidance of the Supreme Ruler of nations and laboring with zeatous resolu. lon to overcome the difftevities with which we sre environed.”” Such were the first six months of Mr. Van Burea’s Administration, and sach his ability of carrying on 3 Giivernment which, according to bis man confession, he foand in a state of unparaileled prospeniy! The calamities @hich overtook fhe nation were 100 deeply feltio silow the amiversal roar of leaghter whieh would otherwise have fol- lowed the titiculeus: position in which he found hemeeli—e postion which excited, of 4840, bps olan and ineapa- city -marked -wuth foreign nations, and msy be en ‘appropriate subjeet of comment hereafter. From the Whig’ Clarion. “THE BLESSING.” When the King of Great Britain nsed to issue his edicts against these ‘rebellious colonies,’ he slways begun them thos: “George the Third, by the grace of God, King, &c.”?> The stubborn Republicans of that day darec to disbelieve that Heaven had commissioned him to oppress his sub- jects, and scouted the divine right by which he or any hodv else assumed to be King The validity of the claim was however ac- knowlerged by many; these in the true vernacular were called Tories,—Now the Demoerats of the present day are by no means Tories ; they say so themselves, sod sure'y they know best. They spprovedd ai! the assumptions, and accretions to Execu- tive power, claimed by Gen. Jackson. Mar- tin Van Buren and John Tyler to be sore; they now seek to meke Michael Hoke Gov- ernor of North Caroling, nat exacily by the ‘grace of God,” but by the “blessing” of a Coovention—still they are not Tories They are only cunning end shrewd Demo- erats ‘T'hey know the power of an appeal to religious feelings, and though we be. that Convention did not feel that they were performing an act of solemn mockery, they supposed it might give an air of sonetity to their sets before a religious community, and gain some. It was a “ruse de guerre,” by which they songht an asdeentage of the Whigs, who had uneccountably neglected to snnoint their chosen candidate.

Let every parent that is not a brute, ask themselves this question in truth and Mr JC Ringold had a child very sick for near two weeks, anid attended by a physician, without relief, when Kolmstock’s Vermifuge was given, and next day mure than forty worms were passed, when the child recovered rapidly. A child of a widow woman, living near the Manhattan Water Works, bad dwindled for a month, till near a skeleton, with great dryness of the mouth, ad itching of the nose. A_ho- mane lady, who called to provide for the family, sent immediately for Kolmsiock’s Vermifage, which brought away great quantities of worms for two or three days, and the child grew better at once, and regained its full strength 10 lees than a month. Several children in a highly respectable fam- ily in Broadway had worms toa frightful extent, anJ were all cured rapidiy with this Vermifuge. Io some of the bes! families ia the reighbor- hood of St. John’s “ark, it has been extensively used, from (he circumstance of having eradica- ted a large quantity of worms, afier all other remedies had failed, which was very extensive ly known io that part of the city. A family in New Jersey saved several children by the ose of it. One,a girl of eight years ot | age, had become exceedingly emaciated hefore the Vermifuge was given. ‘The next day three large worms were dislodged, and she lett off the Vermifoge, when she became again’ worse, and had resort to the Vermifage that finally brought away an incredidle quantity of worms,and the care was complete, aod she gained ber healik rapidly. A Physician of standing, had doctored a fami- ly of children some weeks, without being anole testere but-one ont of the seven to health He had the liberality to send for Kolmsteck’s Ver- mifoge, and cored the rest with it io tess than a week. Numerons cases of other complaints were sup posed tu exist, aod the persons treated fur fever, &e., bat finally a trial of this Vermifoge discov- ered the true cause of the sickoess, by bringing | away almost an innumerable quantity of words, | large and small, and the persons recovered with |: great despatch. lastan:< of this kind might be + cited to an immense exien', Dut It is useless, one + trial for 25 comts will show any one with aston. |. ishment the certain effects of this Vermifuge. { Caution —Never bay thisarticie anless nt have ** Dr Kolastock’s Veraifoge” handsomely en- graved on the outside label, and the fac simile f ef Comstock & Co. f Azents—C B Wheeler, Satisbary; J & R Stoza, Greensboro’; D Heartt, Hitlsboru’; J PE Mabry, Lexington ; Dr Stith, Rateigh. j Mareh 4, 1848—1y32 a 'PEBES f PELES?!

Mr. Van Buren knows full well, that if be comes out boldly and honestly for the Pariffgthat the Lo- cos at the South will not support him, and if he opposes the Tariff, the party at the Worth will | not take him op as the candidate of the unl? rified Democracy there!

A highly respectable meeting of some of the most influential wines, beers, and spirits wes field for the purpose of considering the best means of opposing the Temperance movement. Among those oo tbe ptatforas we patticularly ne ticed Port, Sherry 2nd Claret; while et the low et enc of the room, were Cape, Marsala, and a * wines wore the si'vet collars of the orders to which they fespectively belopged ; and the Port having been unanimously voted io the chair, the bosiness of the meeting wae opened by Cork screw, in + concise bat pointed manner. Cham- pagne was the first to rise, in # state of great ef fervescence. He declared’ that be wee frothing over with pure indignation at the idea of wine being @xcloded from the sociz! beerd; and, in- deed, he found it impossible to preserve the eco! ress which ooght to belong tohim. He was not one to keep any thing bottled op, (Hear, and 2 laugh ;) indeed, when he once let loose, oat it most come ; and hedid say that the tempersoce movement was playing old gooseberry with bim in every direction, (cries of shame! from the Geonine Walker.) Claret said that be did not often get into a state of fermentation ; but on this occasion he did fee! his natural smoothaess forsaking him. He vegged leave to propose the following resolution; ‘* That the pabstitution of water for wine is likely to dissolve all socia! ties, and is calculated 10 do material injary to the constitation”” Rom rose, he said, for the purpose of opposiog this revolution, which he thought of toosweepinga character He(Rom) so far from wishing to get rid of water altogeth er, was always lappy to meet with i: on ‘equal terms; and knew that he (Rom) as well ag ma- ny friende around him, had derived a goad deal of thelr influence from being mixed up with wa- ter, and going, as it were, halfway, which there could be no objection t@ Gio begged. leave to differ with the honorable spirit that had jost sat down, and was so unaccustomed to be on his legs at all, that it was nol surprising be should have failed to make a respectable stand on the present occasion. (Ories of “ Ordert™) He (Gin) bad no wish to create confusion. (Ironical cheering. from Marsala.) He understood the measing of that cheer; and would certainlg confess thai the honorable beverage—for he would not use the stronger term of wine, (a lacgh)—was not likely td create confusion in anv quarier. No}; he (ihe honorable beverage) wae nol strong enough for that. {Renewed laughter) He (Gin) had, perhaps, suffered more from weier then all the other wines and spirits whom he now saw before him put togethér.” His reputation nad been ma- terially hort by it ; and he was strongly of pie: ion that the only thing to be done'with water was 'o throw it overboard. (A French wine, whose name we could not learo, let something drop, but we were angble tecaich it.) Cape, now rose, bot was immediately coughed dows in a very un- ceremonioos manoer. The thanks of the meei- ing having been voted to Port for his con- duct ia the decanter, the Meeting se 5 bu not anti] a committee bad been chosen, consiat— iog of a dozen of wine apd a gallos uf beer, with power to aed to their number, either by water o other wise.s~Cruikshank's Comic Almanac. you s0."—Wife! wife!—oar vo ale to death with a torvip.” cri ‘so. fale ds . herself with them ‘araipa * know'd she'd choke ‘The pumipki pompkins, neither, tbe tray—the ead on’ A magnanimous 4ct —The follow! cal is related by the Boston Poet as ating’ Naoe placa at Point Peire daring the late Earthquake.

Every body that knows any thiog about Van Baren or Heory Clay, must know the above to be false in every particularso far as it regards Mr. Clay..§ What! Mr. Clay “ giving contra< dietory opinions to. sait al seetions?” Never was any thing farther fromthe truth. His opin. ions on all public questions are just the same in Maine as in Louisiana!

We defy any ‘scofoco paper to prove that Heory Clay has ever given “ eontradietory opinions on the Tariff to suit all sections, or any part of the coentry.

You have induced a talented gentleman of tary expedition, which ternfinated in a battle.— He has given you the history: of this expedition as he received it, and points to the “résult and its important conscquences ; and I have con- ceived it my duty, to supply additional particu- lars.

S.—One of the band referred to above, walked over the battle field, with the late Gen. Thomas Davis, of Fayetteville, and pointed out to him, the different pesitions occupied by the Whig force, during the attack on Elizabeth- town. Is it not probable, that Gen. Davis made memorandums of this inspection, which may yet be found among his papers ; and may enable us to form a more accurate idea of the plan and the details of the battle ? From the Southern Rose Bred. A FAMILY SCENE. DB bs I carried with me from my mother’s house a cat, which was so beautiful that I named her Fairy, in honor of the damsel who was changed to Grimalkin, in the old romance. If I had prejudice, it was in favor of cats and against dogs ; this was unfortunate, for soon after my marriage I was introduced to a mastiff of Ed- ward’s nearly as large as myself. I had often heard him speak of his dog, and the faithfumess with which he guarded the office. I was too busy in other interests to think much of Grow- ler for some time. I only observed that, on occasional visits, (for the office was his head quarters,) Fairy’s back rose indignantly, and I fe disposed to mount too. At length, » finding the house so comfortable, came home at night and daringly laid his un- wieldy form on the centre of the hearth rug, while Fairy, routed from her luxuriant station, stood upon her dignity hissing and sputtering in one corner. Rd For a leng period a single look from me would make Edward banish Growler from the room: but a present of w office dog from on completely established him at home, my husband became accustomed to my look and Growler’s presence. When he grew in ient, my ire was roused, I affirmed that created things, dogs was the dirtiest —that the louse was filled with »fleas—that my visiters never could approach the fire—that Growler eat us out of house and home—and if he was to be indulged in tracking the Wil- ton ca paigied floors, we had better be ina w / Edward sometimes gently excused his dog, sometimes defended him, and always turned him out of doors. The animal, knowing he had an enemy in the cabinet would sneak in with a cowardly look, his tail betweemhis legs, but invariably succeeding in ensconsing him- self on Fairy’s rightful domain. At length I became quite nervous about him. —It seemed to me that he haunted me like a ghost. I was even jealous of Edward’s ca- resses to him, and ] and spoke as no good wife should look or: to her husband.

When Mr. Clay mounted the platform, when his visage was first recognised, there burst forth such a cheer of welcome, so earnest, so enthusiastic, so tremendous, that Mr. Clay was almost unmanned at suth a manifestation of popular gratitude and affection. There was bat one heart in that vast ass@miblage of male and “fe- male—for woman was there to adorn the scene, and lend her sanction to the honor# conferred, and the principles presented, | Woman, intelligent woman, is afraid of Locofocoism, and well she may be.

About five minutes had elapsed, after Mr. Clay» ascended: thes ggstrum): when Gov. Mérehead rose and “in a’ brief, but very happy Speech, introduced him to thé ocean of upturned faces which surround- ed him, and, ‘filled the i nse area bes fore and about him. The feelings of Mr. | Clay, upon the delivery of this *add¥ess, Were plainly depicted in his noble face.

A clergyman of much o§servation. recently remarled, that the experience of sitty years had taught him, that if boys bad a faithful and judicious mother, they were pretty sure to turm out well, whatever might be the chtiracter of the father. There are mothers who from va- rious causes, in rearing their sons, are depriv- ed of the co-operation of the father. The fol- lowing hints are intended for the assistance of such mothers. P 1. Keep your boyé by all means out of the Sireeis.—At the proper times for: play, allow them to invite some of their neighbors’ chil- dren into your yard, or permit them to visit those children of your frjends with whom you are willing they should. associate. But let it be an immutable law, that they are not to rove the streets in freedom, to play with whatever companions chance may throw in their way. By commencing early and firmly with this principle, you will have-no difficulty in enforc- ing it. Turn a boy loose into the streets, to as. sociate with the vicious arid pxpfane, to lounge at the corners of stores and stables, adhe will almost certainly be ruined, » Therefore, at all hazards, keep them out of the streets. 2. Do not your boys to play out of doors in the evening.—There is something in the practice of night exposure and night plays whieh seem to harden the heart. You never see such a boy possessed of a gentle and mod- egt de ent, He is. always forward, self-willed and unmanageable. There is al- ways temptation in the darkness of the cven. ing. to say and do things which he woud not | be willing to do in the open blaze of day. The most judicious parents will never allow their children to be out at such hours; conse- quently, the only companions he can be with almost fiendlike in shouts which are occasion- ong heard from such troops of boys congrega- ted at the corners of the streets. If you would save your son from certain ruin, let him are the unmanageable.—There is something Will-have to be passed in the shape of a law by * “500 acre, For'the best lot of on not légs than half Pci For the best Colt under 6ne do do do over T and under 2 years, For the best Yearling Bull Calg” © * For the’ best Bull two Jee Si ' For thé best Yi g Heifer Calf, years old, For the best H@ifer two.

Do-what you can to keep your sons em- ployed.—Let play be their occasional privilege, and they will enjoy it far more highly. Em- ploy them in the garden, if you have oneyat | work, not at play. It will do them no harm to perform humble service.—It Wille help you, and help them still more, to have them bring in the wood or the coal, to, scour the knives, to make their own beds and keep them in or- der. You may thus render. them useful, and greatly contribute to their future welfare.” If you are rich it is still’ more ‘important you should train up your sons in these habits of industry, for they stand in need of this moral amd physical discipline.

Take an interest in your children’s em- ployment..—A pleasant word, an encouraging smilé, from a sympathizing mother, rewards an affectionate boy for many an hour of weary work ; and the word and thé smile reach her heart, and make a more: pliable, gentle, moth- er-loving boy, How often will a boy, with sucha mother, work all the afternoon, to build a play-house, or a dovecot, cheered with the anticipated joy of shéwing it to” his mother when it is done. And when he takes her hand, to lead her out and show her the evidence of his mechhnical skill, how greatly can his young spirit be gratified by a few words of en- c ement and approbation. By sympathi- zing in,the enjoyment of your children, by manifesting the pleasures they can find at home, 4 you thus shield them from countless tempta- tions. 5. Encourage as much as possible a_ fondness for reading.—Children’s books have been of late years, so greatly multiplied, that there is but little difficulty in forming, in the mind of | the child, a taste for reading. When the taste is once formed, you will be saved dil further trouble. Your son will soon explore the libra- ries of all his associates, and hé will find*calm and silent, and improving amusement for many rainy days and long evenings. And you may have many hours of your own evenin solitude enlivened - by his readings. The cultivation of this habit is of such’ immense importance, and is so beneficial in its results, not only upon the child, but upon.the quietude and harmony of the whole family, that it is welf worth while to make special effofts to awaken a Svninovs for books. Select some books of decidedly entertaining .chg r, and encour- age him for a time mgr to you, and ‘you will very soon find his interests riveted, and by a little attention, avoididing ag much as possible irksonie constraint, you may soon fix the habit permanently. 4 The great difficulty with most parents is, that they are unwilling to time to their children.

A]monte has stated a slight con- sideration, Mexico wift Gancel her claims on Texas, and thus the objection of bad faith and a war with that country can be avoided. The special Messenger to Mexieo, Gilbert L. Thompson, Chief Engineer of the U. S. Navy, (as I wrote he would yesterday) departed this mgrmning for Vera Cruz, with papers to the Mexican Government. He is expected to re. turn in twenty days with an advantageous pro- position front that country, which will be im- mediately laid before the Senate, so as to re- move all opposition on that score,” “Be the event what it may in regard to the assent of Mexico, it will have n@ effect upon the treaty, more than to expodite its ratification, if favorable. “The English Minister is very sore on the exas.

Now that it is concluded, and Mr. Calhoun is.neady to enter upon negociation with regard to Oregon, Mr. Packenham states his unreadiness to proceed. The trath is thap the exchange of Ministers—MrwPackenham from Mexico te Washington, and Mr, Fox from Washington to Mexico—was made by the En- glish Government for the purpose of operating onthe Texas question; that each Minister to where it would be most useful; and now that Texas is lost to them, the English Minis- ter declares his Wnreadiness to commence the Oregon negociation, (for which purpose he was ostensibly sent here,) and is on the point of demanding his passports.” A STEAMER ON THE NILE.

The death of a clergyman be- cause he preached in the presence of Gen. Harrison ; and the falling of a gilt Eagle in the Capitol, are both set down as events inflicted by “ Divine justice.”— Gen. Macomb is stricken down by the arrow of the Almighty because he atten- ded the funeral of Haffison; and the fal- ling of a portrait ‘ without a shake or stir,’ are classed together as events equal in importance and equal in evidence of the state of the Divine mind.

HABITS. The whole character may be said*o be comprehended in the term habits; sdhat it is not so far from being true, hat “man is a bundle of habits.” S se you were compelled to wear an iron ql- lar about your neck through life, ora chain upon your ankle ; would it not be! a burden every day and hour of your ex-! istence ! You rise in the morning a pri- soner to your chain; you lie down at night, weary with the burden; and you | groan the more deeply, as you foflect that | there is no shaking it off. But even this | would be no more intolerable to bear than many of the habits of men; nor would it be more difficult to be shaken off. Habits are easily formed—especially such as are bad ; and what to-day seems to be a small affair, will soon become fixed. and hold you with the strength of a cable. That same cable, you will recollect, is formed by spinning and twisting one | thread at a time; but, when once com- pleted, the proudest ship turns her head towards it, and acknowledges her subjec- | tion to its power. Habits of some kind will be formed by every student. He will have a particu- lar course in which his time, his employ- ments, his thoughts and feelings, will run. Good or bad, these habits soon become a part of himself, and a kind of second na- | ture. Who does not know, that the old | man, who has occupied a particular cor- ner of the old fire-place in the old heuse | for sixty years, may be rendered wreteb- | ed by a change?’ Who has not read of | the release of the aged prisoner of the | Bastile, who entreated that he might a- | gain return to his gloomy dungeon, be- | cause ‘his habits there formed, were so. strong, that his nature threatencd to sink | under the attempt to break them up ’?— You will probably find no man of forty, who has not habits which he laments, which mar his usefulness, but whith are so interwoven with his very being, that he cannot break through them. At least | he has not the courage to try. I am ex-| pecting you will form habits. Irfdeed, I wish you todo so. He must be a poor character, indeed, who lives so extempore | as not to have habits of his own. But what I wish is, that you form those hab- its which are correct, and such as will ev- ery day and hour add to your happiness | and usefulness. If a man were to be told | that he must use the axe, which he now selects, through life, would he not bé care- ful in selecting one of the right propor- tions and temper! If told that he must. wear the same clothing through life, | would he not be anxious as to the quali- | than is the selection of habits in which | the soul shall act. You might as well | place the body in a strait-jacket, and ex- of the body, as to throw the soul into the | habits of some men, and then expect it | will accomplish any thing great or good. | Do not fear to undertake to form any | habit which is desirable; for it can be. formed, and that with more ease than you may at figst suppose.

Have a plan laid beforehand for ev- ery day. a These plans ought to be maturely for- med the evening previous, and, on rising in the morning, again looked at, and im- mediately entered upon. | It is astonish- ing how much more -we ac singlé day, (and what of else is life made up?) by having the plan previously mark- ‘ed out. It is so in every thing. This morning a man was digging a path through a deep snow-bank. It was al- most insupportably cold, and he seemed to make but little headway, though he worked as if upon a wager. At length, getting out of breath, he paused, and mark- ed out the width of the path with his sho- vel, then marked out the width of each shovel-full, and consequently the amount of snow at each throw of the shovel. In fifteen minutes, he had done more, and it was done neater and easier, than in thir- ty minutes previous, when working with- out a plan. It is of little consequence by what we illustrate, if we make a thing clear, and impress it upon the mind. | have found, in my own experience, as much difference in the labors of two days, vhen working with, or without a pian, at, at least, one half, without having the satisfaction, in the latter case, of know- ing what I have done. Experience will tell any man, that he is most successful in his own pursuits, when he is most careful as to method. A man of my acquaintance has a small slafe, which hangs at his study-table. On that he generally finds, in the morning, his work for the day written down; and in the evening heereviews it, sees if he has omitted any thing, and, if so, chides him- self that all is not done. To make this clear, I copy here what was found on his slate for one day, as ] saw it this morn- ing :-— a. Horse, errands, and dig paths. b. Carry my child to school, and pay postage bill. : c. Write from 9 till dinneMfat 1 o’cloc d. Write to C., inwiting him—also to Bt ay... J. Visit Mr. M. sick, also the two fam- ilies in Maple Street. g. Get some straw for, horse wherever it can be purchased. kh. Prepare and preach this evening. t. Examine the sixth vol. of B. [to see if any thing is there which I want.] j. Last, riot least, to fix the pump [so that it will not freeze up]. If, at the close of the day, he finds these items all accomplished, and that in such he feels Some- times he finds he has misjudged, and has marked out more than he can do; some- times he is hindered by unexpected inter- ruptions, and therefore cannot do all, or These must be all weighed every night ‘at .the Be sure and review every night, and when you have balanced the account with conscience, lay out what you will do for the next day. kj I lish ina | ge you are & genius, and that “ thir will Tene tatpon,” it would be well to un- deceive. y as soon as possible.

We are ‘astonished at | the volumes which the men of former a- ges used to write. ‘But the term tndustry is the key to the whole secret. “He that shall walk with vigor three hours & day, | will in seven yeafs a space equal to | the ditcuinference vf thie globe.” Where _is no state so bad for the student as idle- ness, and. no habit so pernicious,.,And | yet none is so easily. acquired, or, so “diffi- | cult to be. throwmoff., The idle man soon | grows id, and becomes the Indian in ihis fee insensibly adopting their | maxim—-* It is better to walk than to run, 'and better to:sit than to stand, and better | to lie than té'sit.” Probably theman who ‘deserves the most ‘of pity, is he who is | most idle; foras “there are said to be | pleasures to madness known only to mad- men, there are certainly miseries in idle- ness which only the idle can conceive.” | i) i \lam aware that many are exceedingly _busy, who are not industrious. For it, ve- ry frequently happens, that he who is |most hurried and bustling, is very far from being industrious. A shrewd man | can easily discover the difference. “He | that neglects his known duty, and real | employment, naturally endeavors to crowd his mind with something that may bar out the remembrance of his own folly, and does any thing but what he ought to do, with -eager dilig@nce, that he may keep himself in his own favor.” It is perfectly clear that he who is in- | dustrious has really the most of leisure ; for his time is marked out into distinct | portions, to exelief which something is | assigned; and wherf the thing 1s done, | | settles over him who lives an idle life.— | Better that the waters be straitened, and | burst over their banks, than that they be | too sluggish to move at all.

In digging the levels of a Rail- + road in Francé, they came to an entire mound of skeletons of elephants, and other Asiatic | animals, as if groups’ had been collected and overwhelmed in the deluge, In Arkansas rééently the bones of a mastadom were found | of wonderful size.—The ball, or head of the thigh’ bone, shows the probable length of the animal to have: been forty-nine feet! Among the bones of the head was founda tusk of im- mense size and wéight, measuring twenty-nine inches at its largest extremity, eighteen feet in length and weighing near three hundred pounds. The situation, in:the structure of the animal, ofthis immense tusk, or its use, cannot be de- termined. . . From the New York Observer. AN ANTIDOTE TO RUM. A serious obstacle in the way of thé inebri- ate who is half persuaded to abandon his cups, is found in the tormenting thirst his intempe- rate habits have induced and cultivated. The description of his thirst, given by manggfrom fi bitter Tekaadiénte: proves it to be an effect pe- culiar to intoxicating liquors. Nothing else will produce it; but alcvhol, even in a com- paratively small quantity, does not fail to excite it. It is sure to follow a night’s debauch ; and as the intemperate habits become strengthened, so does thirst rage with increasing power. Now what is the wretched victim to do, when he feels this inward fire consuming his vitals ? We tell him to quit the practice of using intoxi- | cating drinks at once. And the advice is good. | No other course is safe. He is lostiif he does not quit at once. Tampering with the enemy | is only courting destruction. But the obstacle | is yet lying in his way—the unfortunate man | tells you of his fiery thirst. And can nothing | be done for him? How can he cure his thirst ? Water may allay it for the moment: but the relief is not only momentary. Indeed, where s have bee contirmed, water only pes the horrid byrning. ere, if we mistake not, is the hidden secret of the power with which alcohol holds fast*its slave. Water cannot qti@nch his thirst; and maddened with its raging, he seizes again the poisened cup to gain reliefi—a fearful method of relief, which, though it drowns his thirst fur the time, is adding constant fuel to the flame that is consuming him. Is there, then, no antidote? It is*believed there is. It is believed that by substituting a | simple draught of milk, this alcoholic thirst may not only be relieved, but cured. Let the ine- briate who would escape from this degradation, when his thirst returns—for return it will be | when the hour returns when he has been ac- | customed to gratify his appetite—let him make free use of milk, and in a few days he will find | his thirst entirely removed.

Some years ago, we fell in company, in a stage coach, with a man of respectable ap- pearance, who, as the conversation turned upon e subject of temperance, related briefly his | own experience.

While engaged in this work, he ae- quired insensibly the habit of daily using in- 'toxicating liquor, though in moderate. quanti- ties. On returning to his family, he discovered that the habit had become more firmly. fixed than he had ever supposed it could be. ‘The want of his “ morning dram, his noon-day tod- dy, and his evening sling,” rendered him un- easy.

MR. VAN BUREN AND THE SALT TARIFF OF 1827, ws Our readers have not forgotten the indigna. tion expressed a féw weeks since, by the editor of the Enquirer, at the'tax laid upon Salt Tariff of 1842,. It was made the théme,of-one of those appeals to the prejudices of its anti-de- luvians, with which ris wont to abound, whenever the editor supposes he-has discovered a point upon which they are liarly sénsi- « tive. e are told that this tax, like the frogs of Egypt, had insinuated itself into every house- hold, and even found its way,into the dinner pot of the poor man. That this was all asseftion, unsustained by the least shadow of proof, and that the editor very well knew it to be so, we were certain at the time ; and the statements of respectable ants, dealers in the “article, who subscribe to the fact, that salt is chéaper at this moment than it has been for years, served only to confirm a foregone conviction. But we will admit for an instant, and for the sake of arguinent, that a tax on salt has the’ne- cessary effect of raising its price, and thus im. posing an additional burden on the poor man. We presume it. had the same etiect“in 1827 it has. now: Letus see who voted agaiust ucing the tax on Salt at that time. The fol- lowing statement is t ribed from the jour- nal of the Senate of the United States : January 4, 1827.—Mr. Smith of Maryland, from the committee of Finance, reported a bill repealing, in part, the duty on imported Sglt, which was read and ordered to a second réad- ing: amy January 5.—Read the second time, and con. sidered as in committee of thé whole, and, on poned and made the order of the day for day next. Februery 2.—It was again the order of the day, and resumed in committee of the Whole, when, on motion of Mr. Van Buren, the Senate adjourned. P February 5.—The Senate ed as in committee of the Whole, the bill repealing, in part, the duty on our imported Salt, and no amendment having been made hitherto, it was reported to the Senate : and on the question shall this*bill be éngrossed and read a third time, it was determined in the affirmative, Yeas 22, Nays 26. Tazewell absent—Randolph voting Yea. VAN BUREN, Nay!!1 February 15.—The bill having been report. ed by the committee correctly engrossed, was read the third time, and on the question, shall * this bill pass, it was decided in the affirmative, Yeas 24, Nays 21. And the yeas and na being demanded, VAN BUREN vorep nay So the bill passed. Thus it will be seen that Martin Van Buren voted, m= aLt rts staces, AGAINST THE BILL REDUCING THE DUTY ON SALT. We do not pretend to impugn his motives. He may have Lnown that the same effect would be produced, which the tariff of Ig42 has caused, viz : that a reduction of price take plagé but-let him bear the fall burdea of his sins. “If Mr. Clay, it is likewise. one for voting against Martin Van Buren.—Richmond Whig. ao .

Y. proposed a resolution | to the effect that each State delegation should | appoint one of their number to represent them }and their views in regard to a candidate for | Vice President. The gentleman appointed to write the name, of the favorite candidate upon | the back of his ticket, and present it to the | convention, Judge Burnet thought it best that the choice should be made according to the federal popu- latign._ He had no idea that the States contigu- ous to, this—and which. could early send. dele. gate here, would haye more influence thoge be- longing to them as Sfates. \ Some of the dele- gates camp jhere from a few miles and, some | frofh two thousand miles off. Mr. Kelly of Ohio, proposed that the votes for Vice President should be equal to the num. ber of senators and representatives in Congress | and that they appoint one delegate from each state delégation to express their views. Other plans were proposed which ’pave rise to discussion, Mr. Selden defended his resolu: tion in preference to that of Mr. Kelly. :: Mr. S. thought if the proposition from Ohio was carried out the.minority would not be represen. ted, If the gentleman’s resolution: prevailed the effect would be that one more than one half of the delegates from 9 state would éontrol al] the rest. ; . b.. 7 Spear of i sed that, allthe. din ob aera @ laid‘upon the table, and that che delegates be Lalled' thd to vote viva voce.

[Several voices. right—hold them up to that !”] Mr. K. proceeded. a “screw of doctrine.” The committee had been studious to present their views of the constitutional power of Co to rotect; and never, since the days of nul- {ification itself, had there been-a broader manifesto against the utter unconstitu- tionality of any duty for protectiqn in any form. They made an elaborate argument to prove that there was a certain high- water mark, and, while duties and revenue rose with them to that mark, all was constitutional ; butthe moment du- ties rose above and revenue descended, then it was more and more unconstitution- al, accursed, and abominable, till finally it became, for ought he knew, devilish.— The power in the Constitution to lay du- ties did not and could not authorize any duty which should defeat revenue. And now for their “ incidental protection.” In the interior of New York andin the inte- rior of Pennsylvania, (places where séme tariff notions, in some s pe.or other, were indispensable,) they claimed it as sound doctrine that when Congress, in layi duties, “ looked to revetine? they discriminate ; in that case, all. the cutee they might lay, be they what they would took the hue of that purpose, and so were constitutional, and not to be sneezed » at. That was the story where the tariff to be dodged at.the stump. [A laugh} But there was no dodging here. This committee came out like men; and Mr, K. thanked them most sincerely for it.— They showed no quarter whatever to the old Jeffersonian doctrine, that Congress might impose duties to countervail “those laid by other Governments, (which, in substance, was the sum of the doctrine ef protection.) They would have nothi to do with the power to regulate c merce—not they ; but they held to their doctrine that Congress had no power, i any case or for any purpose, to lay a do. ty that should defeat revenue. He hop- ed this report, with this high democratic doctrine, would get into Alabama. Mr. K. should like very well to get into the bail-. iwick of a certain gentleman from that State, and listen to the judicious salvo which would be applied. Gentlemen said that. they never laid any such duties’ —never! Yet, on looking into this most orthodox Bill, he found duties of 100 per cent. on iron, (Pennsylvania iron,) 100 per cent. on sugar, (Louisiana sugar,) and the moderate duty of 203 per cent. on the Juice of'cane} [Loud laughter.] This seemed rather above high-water mark.— Ah, but then it was said that certain ar- ticles had a peculiar capability of high duties; sugar was one, iron was another; these had the capability ; it had just now There was the authentic history of the matter; and he thanked the chair- man of the committee, the gentleman from North Carolina, (Mr. McKay,) for so Rhett here interposed to inquire | whether Mr. McKay (the chairman) had “ That’s fair—that’s He had heard it said that the party which went against the tariff of 1842 were not opposed toipro- tection ; oh no—they were the advocates of what they called “ incidental protec- i tion.” On this subject they had received TABLISHMENT OFA Nationar Bagi’! °But PW PM 2 ATTA ills and di that flesh is heir to, and man, on his legs ahahaepon down to the full‘extent they wished.’ : A NATIONAL BANK. circulating medium to the country, it will not, we think, be amiss.to put on recordya erence to.that subject which tto light by the Hon.

We go into the conteft, both State and National with eyery thing to cheer and animate us on to victory, while our adver- saries have no one to look to as their leader, but are divided and.cut up into different divis- ions.

About the 15th of January, several of my ne- groes were taken with @ violent sore throat, in in the head and fever, swelling of the glands of the neck, and behind the ear.™ I then, did not kriow what the disease was, and from its rapid progress to termination, it caused me to be’ much alarmed. -On the first day it wasa simple sore throat ; in twelve hours after the sore throat commenced, there was a paingn the head, and before twenty hours, hot fever and | swelling of the glands and neck almost to suf- focation. I had but little medicine on the plan- tation, with the exception of Jalap; of this I gave very large doses ; its effect was astonish- ing, attacking thédisease at every pore, ‘and in two or three days effecting a cure; the dose | was repeated every day until the cure was ef- | quiet « books. _ cra hag thought, of the emptiness the mere earthly puruits. “In whee” he said, “am wasting m time? there any thing ‘in the d ps. gp holga Mart a mortaly spirit? “What..true is there between the “highly tou and bales’ of a= or pieces o ? rit ema ind. and the dull insensi jects. of trade? Nothing! Nothing! How saflly do we waste our lives in the mere pursuitof gold! and af- ter the the glit earth is gained} are we any ha I think not. The lov- er of -the wise, coritemplative her- mit in his eell, is more than Algeron !” Thus mused the merehant, and thus he gave utterance. to his’ thoughts—sighing as he closed h sentence. The bgek that he loved was eg aside—the i ment from which his skilful hand ‘drew eloquent music lay hushed. upon a table. He was unhappy.—He had remained thus for some time, when the door of his room opened and a beautiful being en and stood before him. Her counten was calm and elevated, yet full of sweet be- | nevolence. For a moment she looked at | the unha merchant, then extending | her hand, she said : a eed “Algeron, | have heard your complaiats. Come with me, and look aroand with «a» broader intelligence !” -" mY As she spoke, she laid lier finger upon | the eyes of tie young man. Arising, he | fourid himself in the. open air, walking by | the side of his strange conductor, along | a path that led to a small*cottage, Into | this they entered. It was a very humble abode ; but peace and contentment were | dwellers in the breasts of its simple mind- | ed occupants—an aged female and a lit- | tle girl. “Both were engaged with reels | of a curious and compligated construc- | tion; and both sung cheerily at their | work. A -basin.“of cocoons on the | floor, by. each of the reels, told Algeron | the true na of their employment. A / small basket of fine and smoothly reeled | the | pote were upon a table. e merchant still looked on, a man enter. | ed, and bargaining for the reeled silk,paid | down the*price and carried it away. A few minutes after, the owner of the cot- tage came. He asked for his rent; and it was givén to him. Then he retired. | Sfiortly after a dealer in provisions stop- | ped at theshumble dwelling and liberally | supplied the Wants of its occupants. He | received his pay and drove off, singing | gaily, while the old woman and the child looked contented and happy. “Come,” said his conductor, and Alge- ron left the cottage. The scene had chang- | ed. He was no longer in the open coun- | try, but ded by small houses. = It | was a village. Along the streets of this | fected, Strong red pepper tea was given i to age ; this was given ‘for the sore throat. did not know what the diseasé was until it got in-my family, when it showed itself by the scar- let eruptions making their appearance, which could riot be seen on negroes.

The day following, he employ- _ed force ; I begged for indulgence—I bid him begone—I stormed—but Joseph per= sisted. I was therefore obliged*to com- ply; and he was rewarded every day for the abuse which he suffered at the mo- ment when I awoke, by thanks, accompa- { | ' t shows, at least, | nied with a crown, which he received a- | bout an hour after. | Yes, I am indebted | to poor Joseph for ten or a dozen of the vo- umes of my works.” Frederick II. of Prussia, even after age and infirmities had increased upon him, gave strict orders never to be allowed to sleep later than four in the morning. Pe- ter the Great, whéther at work in the docks at London as a ship-carpenter, or at the anvil as a black-smith, or on the throne of Russia, always rose before day- light. “I am,” says he, “ for making my | life as long as I can, and therefore sleep as little as possible.” Dodridge makes the following striking and sensible re- marks on this subject ;—“ I will here re- cord the observation, which I have found of great use to myself, and to which, I may say, that the production of this work (Commentary on the New Testament) and | most of my other writings, is owing, viz. that the difference between rising at five and af seven o'clock in the morning, for the space of forty years, supposing a man to go to bed at the same hour at night, is nearly equivalent to the addition of ten years to a man’s life.” In order to rise early, I would earnest- ly recommend an early hour for retiring. There are many other reasons for this. ’ Neither eyes nor your health are so likely 10M destroyed. Nature seems to have so fitted things, that we ought to rest in the early part of the night. Doct. Dwight used to tell his students “ that one hour of sleep before midnight is worth more than-¢wo ho fter that time.”— Let it be a rule,wi ly adhered to, that your light shall be ex- tinguished by ten o'clock in the evening.

Weare impelled to répeat the provocation. Itis a sore evil that labor, so essential to health, vigor, and virtue, is generally regarded with averson.

But the more immediate purpose of the, convention was to confirm the nomina- tions of the National Convention. for the high 6ffices Cf resident and Vice Presi- dent of the United States. The Convention of Ratification—that is the phrase: ¢ The People, through their mass of Representatives, were to pro- nounce upon the action of the grave nom- inating body appointed to select candi- dates for the high plages of the Govern- ment. The.voice of approval was to con- irm the choice of those empowered to make a choice, and to pronouuce in anti- cipation the sanction of the whole country upon the selection. When the resolution was announced declaring the concurrence of the Ratifica- tion Convention in the nomination of HENRY CLAY for the Presidency, the sight was ome worth a pilgrimage to see. It exhibited an earnest of that long delay- ed, yet always accumulating acknowledg-’ ment due for years of devoted and faith- ful servige, from a grateful country to a» worthy son.

THE, NATIONAL PRIZE BANNER! [We mustomit the long descriptions.of badges, banners, and processions, with which the Baltimore papers are filled.— The American says :} Thé streets along which the procession passed were decorated with many elegant and appropriate devices and ornaments; many tempor latforms weresthrown out from the d and third stories of the fronts of houses handsomely decora- ted, and at various itervals elevated ro were stretched across the.streets from house to house, from whi¢lwere display- ed the national flag and other patriotic and tasteful devices. It is unnecessary to say:that every position which afforded a view of the procession as it passed was occupied; from the. footway up to the roof inclusive. The ladies of course oc- cupied the most favored places, and such an assemblage of bright faces and beam- ing eyes was never before exhibited in our good city. Not only the entire resi- dent population, but. the many thousand Strangers who had been drawn hither by the interest of the occasion, were concen- trated alonffthe single line of street de- signated for the route of the procession, presenting a spectacle more ‘i ing, grand, and: cheering than has probabl before been witnessed in this country. The view from the head of Baltimore street is admitted to have been most striking and im- posing. The street throughout its entire length appeared as one dense mass of human beings, and when the procession passed onwards with its countless banners, the waving of ten thou- sands of handkerchiefs from the windows and platforms on both sides of the street presented to the eye a spectacle the brilliancy, and gran- deur of which may be imagined but cannot be described. At the intersection of Gay street, a series of flags were extended from the American office ed, gave promise of future usefulness in a sphere of agtion more exalted than that in which he had shown the sterling qualities of his nature—and lo! here was the call to summon him to his high place. It was to be expected that with the ex- ample of 1840 and its disastrous resulis . before their eyes, the nomiinating conven- tion would exercise more than ordinary | care in the selection of a candidate for the | Vice Presidency. In view of a contin- gency which, as it has happened once, , May happen again—in view of the uncer- tainty of human life under all varieties ofcircumstances—it was the duty of the convention to take good care that if by a mysterious dispensation of Providence the chosen of the People should be taken a- way from us during his term of Presiden- tial service, his mantle should fall upon one worthy to wear it. And well have ipey performed this duty.

Metcalf of Kentucky, followed,and spoke in his usual eloquence for the Whigs of Ken- tucky and the Union. e The Hon. Thomas Ewing, of Ohio, having been called on was received with rapturous applause. He briefly vindicated himself for the part he had takeg with respect to Mr, Ty- ler’s Administration, hd spoke warmly in fa- vor of his old friends and associates—Henry Clay and Theodore Frelinghuysen. Then came Edward Stanly, of North Caro- lina, who expressed himself delighted with the scene before him, and the glorious: Whigs a- round him. He had been more than satisfied with the nominations, and North Carolina would stand by them. Mr. Webstér made a second speech at anoth- er part of the stand, and was followed by Messrs.

Several of the hou which they were seen fo enter “we ked, and the doors and windows of t houses in Cadwalader street, below Master st., and one in the same street, above Master st., were bat- tered in with stones. On Master street, near Germantown road, thé® fronts “of two: houses’ were also much battéred, and ¢ke windows rid- died with stones. On Germantown road, the dwelling house of a widow, named Mrs. Brady, was forcibly broken into, tf windows and shut- ters shattered, amd the furniture broken up.— The attack upon her house was made because one of the fugitives had been seen to run up the alley adjoining. The windows in the upper story of the Hi- bernia hose house were alsg, shattered, and Master st., between Germanto#h road and Cud- walader st., was literally strewed with broken bricks-and stones. Finally, the Irishmen ral- lied, and beat offthe Native Americans, and there the contest ended for the time. The worst result of this disgraceful contest is seen in the loss of life. From the beginning of the affray the shots were frequent, and the following persons were killed or wounded : George Shifler, almost instantly killed ; Jos. Cox, dangerously wounded in the groin ; Lee, wounded in the hip; Charles Vantavoren, shot in three places an dangerously wounded ; Patrick Fisher, shot in the forehead, not dan- gerously wounded ; ‘Adam Boozer, shot in the arm. Shifler lived only a few minutes, the ball, we understand, having passed through his head. The excitement created in East Kensington by the occurrence was intense. People were gathered at every corner, listening to or re- peating the hundred vague rumors which went floating about. ; Sh’ff. McMichael was early upon the ground, and we learn adgpted active measures tg pre- vent further violence. The above account was gathered from vari- ous sources, and in the midst of the excitement which prevailed. It may contain errors, but care has been had to obtain the truth concern- ing what occurred, and to state it when obtain. ed. MipNicgHT—FurTHER ParTIcULaRrs.— Two men killed.—During the evening, great crowds of people were gathered in the neighborhood, of the scene of violence in the afternoon, and about ten o’clock an attack was made upon a dwelling house on Second street just above Franklin. The doors and windows were bea- ten in, and the furniture of the lower story bro- ken up and much of it thrown into the strect. The cause of this attack, it was said, was in consequence of a gun having been fired from the building during the afternoon. Another house above this in the same row was also in- jured in consequence of stones having been thrown at it. A cry was then raised, “ go to the Nnnery,” and a crowd proceeded up Second st.to Mister, at the corner of which is a Roman Catholic School House. A bonfire was kindled at one corner of the street, and the fence of the School House set on fire ; about this time when the crowd had faltered in front of the School House, a volley of musketry was fired from the house opposite, and when the crowd had parted it was discovered that several were wounded ; one young man named J. A. Wright was taken up dead, a ball having pierced his lepggens just above his heart. Another young named Ramsey, living on Third st., above Brown, was shot in the upper part of the left lung with a bullet, and when we left he was expiring. We were also told that two other men wepe serious- ly wounded. .- The Native America n retreated and up to twelve o’clock, (Midnight) affairs remaigad quiet. ring the evening, and shortly made a call upon the military for they had some time, since form duty in cases of riots, ture nagile an appropriation yat been cal Were not willing to enter upon their duty.

Most of those present moved in g body to Kensington, (at the corner of Second"andsMas- ter street,) and proceeded to organize a which a com same that is spoken of above,) when a number of boys made an attack upon the Hibernia hose house. A number of shot were then fired from houses in the vicinity toward the meeting, and the Native Americans, after dispersing for a moment, rallied and attacked the hose House, took out the carriage, ran the hose off the reel, and then broke the apfi@ratus up. An old ten- der, the property of the Washington Hose Co. which was also in the house, was broken up likewise. The Native Americans then, (be- the market house, and for the next three hours, the shots were frequent from the houses in its western vicinity. Men were seen lying upon the roofs of a row of houses fronting the mar- ket; and in every place of concealment near the same place, others were occasionally dis- covered. , We give below the fist of killed and wound- ed, so far as we could ascertain. About 5 o’clock apother attack was made up- on the hose house, and a largé new bell found in it was brought out and shattered to pieces. Shortly afterthis, a house next to the hose house was fired, and the flames continued to spread until 29 houses were copsumed on Cadwalader st., and finally the mark@t house itself. At 7 o’clock, under the protection of several companies of military, the Sheriff detached a number of his constabulary force (which had preceded the military on their march up,) and shots had been fired ;*in one of them a man was found, and in the same room in which he was, was a rifle heavily loaded.

We had designed; making some com.. ‘nts on his speech, and attended for that purpose. But up- on second thought deem it quite unnecessary. Mr. Hoke is decidedly a very harmless sort of gentleman to the Whigs, and if we mistake not Mr. Graham is‘to have some rare fun this Sum-» mer. He is out in favor of the annexation ‘of Texas at allhazards. He thought. it byfarthe most vitally important question new, before the people. He appealed to-all men, without dis- tinction of party, to support it. It is not a par- ty question, said he, but a measure upon Which depends the salvation of the Country, dc. &c. It’s no go, Mr. Hoke, you cannot_make a raise on that question in North a ibe | people of the good Old North State, altho distinguished for their hospitality and )liberal. views, are not yet prepared to receive into their embrace the little Republic which you repre. sent as stretching forth her arms and asking admittance into our glorious anion of Sta without knowing, in the first place, whether they are to be benefitted or injured by so doing. The fact is, they are convinced of the latter re- sult. They know that it would, under existing circumstances, render us odious in the eyes of ‘other Nations, and must inevitably plunge th Country into a war with Mexico, who has .ne- ver yet relinquished her right tothe Territory of Texas. On Monday last we visited the Gold Mines in the Southern part of Rowan county, it being the day appointed by Mr. Hoke to address the People of that region. We were utterly sur: prised to find almost the whole: surface of a ridge, some one and a half or two miles in ex- tent, torn up by the pick and shovel of the mi- ner. Here was a deep deserted pit with gap- ing mouth, inviting as it were, man and beast to sudden destruction by a misstep. There was a long trench running through the woods for many yards, which had been made in “ search. ing for the veins.” * Here again were a com- pany of operators in and about @ shaft or pit of some 60 or 75 feet in depth, pursuing a vein into the bowels of the earth, and from thence drawing the rich ores. A little way off and there is another company similarly engaged. A little beyond and there is still another; and another, and another, and so the woods are fill- ed, Scattered about amidstethese pits and heaps of shattered rock and ore, are numerous litle “ log cabins” daubed with Clay, which ese | SPdoacdee “Aan Rast, . ners .

We have the sincere satisfaction, says the National Intelligettcer of the 11th, in being able to inform our readers'that the great question of the present session—of the present Congress, indeed—was yester- day settled in the House of Representa- tives by the rejection of the bill to reduce the duties on imports. It was a rejection in form, though not in fact, the actual question which decided its fate being u on a motion to lay’ the bill upon the cable, serve these enterprizing men as residences. (understood to be a test question,) which Some of them are of the real primitive order, with clap-board roofs and weight poles; with achimney at one end as wide as the whole house, excepting that it tapers a little from each corner. Others are a little more modern in style ; but there are very few which exhibit brass nobs on pannelled doors, whilst there are many of rough boards with ‘strifig and latch. But let it be remembered that these are only temporary residences, and that whilst their ten- ants shows so many signs of poverty, their pockets are in fact well lined with coup. This does not come about, however, in the way that Tom Benton and the Globe predicted some years ago, in certain events. It is the result of hard labor, which is not only more profitable, but more honorable than to depend upon the operation of certain political movements. Counter feits—We warn the public against counterfeit ten dollar notes on the Mechanics and Planters Bank of South Carolina. We have just seen one of them, which is doubtless & base counterfeit, but well calculated to pass where there is no suspicion. The ink with which the bills are printed has a brown cast, and the engraving.is coarser than that of the genuine bill. The Messrs. Murphy inform us that several have been presented at their store within the last few days, which induces the belief that they are pretty plenty. Disclostves.—The Globe threatens dis- closures respecting the conduct of some engaged in urging Texas upon the Union at this tiffie and in this way, which will appa the country, and the indefatigable | Benton, if réport speak true, will in the e drag to light matters which will ‘artle the hongst of all parties.

So that the vote of yesterday can- not now be reconsidered. Nor can the bill possibly be resumed or revived in any way by less than a two-thirds vote. So that, figuratively speaking, it is not only dead, but buried. This, our readers may remember, is the issue which we predicted, even before the meeting of Congress. What will the Southern Free Traders donow? They have strove long and hard for the destruction of the Tariff and also of American interests, but have been most wofully deceived by their Northern Allies with promises which they never intended to perform. P on they still cling to the skirts of the deceivers ? CONNECTICUT. The Legislature of this State so lately and so gloriously redeemed from the thral- dom of Locofocoism, met at New Haven on the first inst. In the House of Repre- sentatives, Chas. J. McCurdy, (Whig) was elected to the Speakership by a majority of thirteen votes; and in the absence of the Lieutenant Governor, Chas .L. Rock- well was appointed President pro tempore of the Senate. On the next day, the two Houses met in convention, and, according to the provi- sions of the constitution where no choice has been made by the People, proceeded to the election*of Governor, and the fol- lowing is the result : For Roger S.

Upon the defeat of the Foreign Free Trade Locofoco Tariff Bill in the House on the 10th instant, and while there was some cavelling about a reconsideration of the vote by which it was laid upon the ta- ble, Mr. Stewart, of Pennsylvania, said that “a death had just occurred in the House, (referfing to the bill) and as it was usual on such occasions to adjourn, he moved that the House adjourn ; agreed to. 7" We neglected to mention in our last, that Mr. Cray has written a letter to the Edi- tors of the National Intelligencer, in which he declines accepting of any invitations to attend the public gatherings of his friends until after the Presidential Election. Being the regular. ly nominated candidate of the Whig Party, Mr. Cray thinks it his duty to refrain from taking an active part in the canvass. LATE FROM MEXICO. The schooner Pilot, from Vera Cruz the 22d ult., has arrived at New Orleans with P. A. SourHatt, bearer of despatches, as a passen- ger. Mr. Southall states that there was no news of importance at Mexico or Vera Cruz when he left. Business was exceedingly dull, and the Government was hourly expecting a hostile visit from a French Squadron, growing out of misunderstandings connected with the de- cree forbidding foreigners from engaging in thé retail trade in the interior. Mr. Van Ness, the last of the San Antonio Prisoners, has been released by order of Santa Anna, and was to have sailed for New York on the 29th ult. Blockade of Vera Cruz.—The New York Republic says it has private letters from London stating that the French Goverument have order- ed all their vessels of war round the West India coast to proceed to Vera Cruz for the purpose of blockading that port. This step is supposed to have been taken in consequence of the decree issued by Santa Anna prohibiting foreigners from retailing goods in Mexico. The news had produced an effect on the Mexican stocks. SSO Pp BY FRIDAY MORNING'S MAIL. HON. WILLLIAM A. GRAHAM.

From the Ni » Genesee Farmer. MAKING SUG OM CORNSTALKS. Mr. Colman has to thank friend Webb, of Wilmington,Delaware, for a valuablearticle on’ sugar from the stalks of Indjan corn. Mr Webb has just claims, as far as our knowledge goes, of being the first successful experinienter in this matter, and we have no doubt immense bene- fits will accrue to the country from this most important discovery. “It is not new to have ob- tainied molasses or syrup in this way. This was frequentlydone during the period of the Ameri- can Revolution ; but no successful attempt was ever made to granulate and crystalize it. This Mr. Webb has succeeded in doing; and like- wise in determining the time when the sap of the plant can be used to the best advantage.— At what expense the sugar can be made, Mr. Webb’s communication does not state ; but we do not understand it to be an expensive process. It isa great thing that every farmer can make his own sugar, an innocent and heathful luxury, his domestic éxpenses. Whether it can be a matter of'profit to farmers on the sea shore, or accessible toour great commereial marts, where the expense of producing the corn is much greater, and sugar from the cane-sugar states is much cheaper than in the interior, cannot be determined without any more experiments than have yet been made ; but to farmers in the in- terior, in the great west, whcre Indian corn is produged in the. most profuse abundance and with the greatest ease, and where the pric sugar, from the expenses of transportation, is necessarily high, the obtaining of sugar from corn-stalks must be of incalculable advantage. We have been favored with a specimen of Mr. Webb’s corn sugar, and we are confident in saying that it is as good as any sugar of the ++ f i i : e a t s H i g A words will explain the agony which has beén so generally experi those who | willbe: small in ¥ i 90 s, until the w will form a crust on the broken from ti rest. When it, et) codkal Hoke in one hundred pounds ; but it can be done more have attempted to make sugar in this way. If moredan thre hours are allowed to e e from the juice is pressed out until it done béiling, there, will be no ‘certainty about the syrup.crystalizing ; or if sugar does form, it tity and separated with dif- the molasses. Other things being oak e perfection of the result will be in pro- poe to the celerity of the operations. Im. ediately after the stalk is cut, the formation of muci comme in the juice, and every noment’ of delay es it more and more mu- ous. This foreign matter cannot after- ward be entirely separated ; and if it exist in any considerable quantity, crystalization cannot take place. .All this, however, is no advantage; it happens that the kind of furnace boilers ne- cessary to effect the quickest evaporation, are the cheapest in construction and the most eco- nomical in respect to fuel. They may be made of coppér or sheetiron. ‘The first or desecra- ting kettles, of which there must be two, should not be larger. than to hold conveniently all the juice which four mill will run off in one hour. It would be better if they were but half this size, so as'to clarify every half hour; but in that case more of them would be required. These pans, not being intended for evaporation, should have a depth equal to their diameter.

The treacherous Eesah, although ready to extend the hand which should have denoted friendship, was no- thing loth to the appropriation of other men’s chattels; and throughout all the nomade Adel. hordes, whose tents were erected during the more sul onths, the feud and the desultory skirmish favor- ed the inroads of the foe. Among the surrounding clans, even her own tribe was not notorious for its honesty, and by frequent depredations abroad, it invited the foray of reprisal.

Its length should be such that it will not be necessary to let into it at any one time, more juice than will cover the bottom two of three inches deep, The juice is admitted at one end of the pan, from the desecating kettles, as fast as it is clarified ; and through a cock at the other end. Two other small pans will be necessary, in which to finish the boiling. They must also be flat bottomed somewhat deeper than the last; and the sides should slope outwards with a considerable an- gle, to guard against boiling over. It is neces- sary, with the latter pans, to have some arrange- ment by which the syrup, when sufficiently boiled, may be instantly taken off the fire with- out burning. This is usually done, if they are too large to lift off by hand, with a rope and pulley, by means of which one end of the pan is raised, and its contents discharged over a be at the opposite end. All these kettles may be set ina range over the same fire, and if the situation will admit, they may be so contrived that the juice will run from one to another. These plans effect a great economygpf labor and fuel ; but it is evi- dent that, on commencing, there will not be Juice to fill all the pans ; and unless some pre- caution is used, they will be liable to injury from the fires, until their turn comes to be filled with juice. .To preventthis, some water may be put into them, and emptied out as they may be want- ed, or you may have side doors along the fur- nace, by which fire may be introduced where you want it, until fully under operation, when they must be tightly closed. The juice, on coming from the mill, should the desecating kettles, so that the latter can be filled without delay.

In order to secure the very best results, it will undoubtedly be necessary to employ the most complete machinery, seconded by that kind of Knowledge and skill which can only be acquired by experience. But it does notfellow from this that simpler arrangements may not, under cer- tain circumstances, be preferably employed.— A scientific manufacturer, with his costly appa- Fatus, could easily make much finer sugar and in larger proportion from the maple juice, than is generally done by farmers ; but this does not prove that every one who now boils maple juice would find it expedient to change his present fix- tures for the more improved machinery, The household manufacture of sugar is one whieh I would rejoicd to*see generally intro- duced through the country.

The observance or neglect of this rule will make a wonderful difference in your character long before the time’ that you are forty years old: All act upon it, more or less, but few do itas a matter of habit and calculation. Most act upon it asa matter of interest, or of curiosity at the moment. The great difficulty is, we be- gintoo late in life to make every thing contribute to increase our.stock of prac- \ioal information, Sir, Walter Scott gives us to unders*and, that he never met with any man. let his calling be what it might, even the most s‘upid fellow that ever rubbed down a horse, from whom he could not, by a few moments’ conversation, learn something which he did not before know, aad Which was valuable to him. This will aecoutit forthe fact that he seemed to have an intuitive knowledge of every thing. Who but he would stop. in the street and. note down a word which drop- ped among the oaths of two angry men, —a word for which he had been lookiag formonths? {If is quite as important to go through the world with the ears open. as with thé eyes open. “ When IT was young,” says Cecil; “my mother had a servant, ose conduct -] thought truly wise. Aman was hired to brew. and this servant was to watch his method, in or- der to learn his art. In the course of the process, something was done. which she did not understand. She asked him, and he abused her with the vilest epithets for her ignorance and stupidity. My mother asked her how she bore such abuse. ‘I would be ealled,’ said she, ‘ worse names, a thousand times, for the sake of the in- formation I got out of him.’” It is a false _totion, that we eught to know nothing out of our par‘icular line of study or profes- | sim. You will be none the less distin- guished in your calling, for haying ob- tained ‘an item of practical knowledge from every man with whom you meet. And every man, in his particular calling, kuows things which you do not, and which are decidedly worth knowing. Mulhitudes of gifted and learned men sat under the ministry.of the eloquent and youthful Spencer. "They were superiors inevery thing excepting His own profes- sion, and perhaps in that, excepting the point on which he had just been studying, and on which he was speaking. Yet they all felt that they were deriving informa- tian, profit, and pleasure, from his ministry. “Old-fashioned economists will tell you never to pass an old nail, or an old horse- shoe,or buckle, or even a pin, without taking it up; because, al’hough you may not waht it now, you will find a use for it ‘ome time or other, I say the same thing 'e you with regard to knowledge. How- *ver useless it may appear to. you at the noment, seize upon all that is fairly with- 1 your reach. For there isin fact, with- ia the whole circle of human observation, not even a fugitive anecdote that you rad in a newspaper, or hear in conver- sation, that will not come into play some me or. other; and occasions will arise When they involuatarily pr sent their dim shadows in the train of your thinking and reasoning, as belonging to that train, and you will regret that you cannot recall them more distinctly.” I do not recommend you to try to learn every things Far from it. But while you ave ene great object in view, you can attend to o:her things which have a bear- ingen your object. If you were now sent on an express to Mexico, while the great object before you would be, to do your er- rand well, and expeditiously, ought yeu hot, as you pass along, to use your eyés, and gaze wpon the landscapes, the rivers, the deep glens, the waterfalls, the wild sali # nature, whigh lie in.your path?

These. principles relate to right _ wrong, and, indeed, to: every thing a which the judgment has to balance probabilities. Do not. be. hasty in coming to conclusions. Young -|men genéralty err more by being precipi- | tate, than for want of judgment. If. they will only give themselves time to weigh; the matter, their conclusions’will usually be correct. “I have fong adopted an expedient, which I have found of singular service. I have’a shelfin my study for tried au- thors, and one in my mind for tried prin- ciples and.characters. “ When an author has stood a'thorough examination, and will bear to be taken as a guide, I put him on the shelf! “ When I have more fully made upmy mind on & principle, I put it on the shelf! A hundged subtle objections may be bro’t against this principle ; I may meet with some of them; perhaps ; but my principle is on the shelf. “Generally I may be able to recall the reasons which weighed with me to put it ; but, if not, Iam not to be sént out to sea again. Time was when I saw through and detected all the subtleties that could be Brought against it. T have past evidence of having been fully convinced; and there on the shelf it shall be ! “ When I have turned a character over and over on all sides, and seen it through and through in all situations, I put it on the shelf.

I should be much | chagrined, indeed, to be obliged to take a character down which I had once put up, but that has never been the case with me yet; and the best guard against it is, not to be too hasty in putting them there.’ Those who understand the above keen | remarks by experience, well know what a luxury it is, on particular occasions, when the mind is fatigued, or the memo- ry is weak, and doubts are started con- cerning some point of great importance, to have this “shelf” of established princi- ples to which you can go. I have never been able to read the history of the mar- tyrdom of the venerable Latimer, without being touched, almost to tears, to see him clinging to his long-established principles. They urged him to dispute and prove his religion true, and the poprsh, false. He knew that he was old, and had lost some- what of the strength of his mind. He would not dispute. He left that for young and vigorous minds, while he died simply repeating his belief! He knew very well that he had oncé examined the subject with all th® vigor of his intellect, and he was not to go and take these pringiples down from the “ shelf,” and again prove them to be correet. Conduct which stands on such a basis, and character which strikes its rogts thus deep, will be such as | will bear scrutiny, and such as no storm can shake. - “ Th man resolved, and steady to his trust, Inflexible to ill, and obstinately just, Many the rude rabble’s insolence despise, Their senseless clamors and tumultuous cries ; The tyrant’s fierceness he beguiles, And the stern brow and the harsh voice defies, And with superior greatness smiles.” 8. Be simple and neat in your persona habits. It is frequently said, that “ some pride is necessary among men, else they would not be decent in their appearance.” If the remark means any thing, I suppose it means, that pride adds much and frequent- ly to our personal appearance. But an angel, or. any sinless spirit, I doubt not, would be a gentleman in appearance and dress, and that not from pride, but from a desire to be more useful and more happy. | Nothing will so uniformly and certainly | make you unpopular, as to have any ha- bits that are*slovenly. If you have ever learned to chew or smoke that Indian weed, called tobacco, I*beg that you will at once drop ail, cleanse your mouth, and never again defile your- self with it. Nicholas Monardus, a Ger- man, has written a large folio on the vir- tues of Tobaeco ; but it would take ma- ley such folios to prove it worthy of a place among civilized men. .Let a man be thrown from»a ship-wreck upon a desert island, and in astate of starvation, and he would rather de: than to eat, this weed, though the i / might be covered with it; and no youth egn use it, either in chewing or smoking, without decided and permanent injury to his appearane th and progress in study.

For ex- ercise should have a different dress. No one can enjoy himself who undertakes to study, and exercise in the same dress. In your study, use an old coat or gown. You will feel more easy and comfortable, and your dress-coat will last all the better for it. Some wear a baize jacket in atody 3 and this is very well. I know of one who always studies, summer and winter, in his shirt sleeves ; and though I have an opin- ion of him quite as high as he deserves. yet | cannot reéommend the practice. Your dress should be warm. If you wear flannels next the skin, be sure to take them all off when you sleep. ' Be sure, also, to keep your feet dry and warn. In order to this, you must use them every day in walking. The question in rela- tion to dress should be, not “How often can I have a new hat or coat?” but “ How long can I wearit,and keep it hand- some ?” He who undertakes to be very nice and finical in his dress, will make but a poor student. the animal world. Dryden, in his fable of the Cock and the Fox, seems to have had a dandy before him— “ Then, turning, said to Partlet, “ See, my dear, How lavish Nature hath adorned the year : How the pale primrose and the violets spring, And birds assay their throats, disused, to sing, All these are ours ; and I, with pleasure see Man strutting on two legs, and aping me !”” No slave is so abject, as he who tries to keep near the head in the race of fash- ions. Alexander is said to have had a neck that was wry; and this created a fashion, so thatvhis courtiers all held their heads on one side.. He was most fash- ionable, who lopped his head the most. Was this more ridiculous than what the votaries of fashion must do contifually? But cannot a student be particularly nice about his dress wi‘hout having his heart aH in it? Ilreply,“ that whenever you see the tail of a fox out of the hole, you ied sure that the fox is in the hole.” Keep your clothes neat ang clean; your coat, your hat, your boots or shoes, and be neat as to your linen ; but do not feel that this is by any means the great business of life. Pay particular attention to your teeth. By this I mean, simply, cleanse them with a soft’ brush and with water, in which a little common salt is dissolved, the last thing before you retire at night. This simple direction, faithfully followed, will ordinarily keep the teeth good till old age. I would urge this, because, if neglected, the following are the results: Your breath will inevitably become offensive from defective teeth; your comfort will be destroyed by frequent tooth-ache ; your health will suffer for the want of good teeth to masticate the food; and last, though not least, you will early lose your teeth, and thus your publie speaking will be irretrievably injured. These may seem small affairs.now, but the habit of neglect will assuredly bring bitter repen- tance when it is too late to remedy the | neglect. ; Do not affect singularity in any of your habits. We never feel at home with a man of odd habits; and any such will asstiredly increase him.

Keep YOUR FOG and person, at all times, just as you wou. have it if you expected your mother or sister to make you a visit.

The humor of Swift was not misapplied when he describes hi as recdévering from sickness by changing his‘linen.. A clean, neat appearance is always a good letter of introduction.. May.}. request my rea- ders to gather the application and moral of the following beautiful story : “.A®de- vise, of great sanctity, one®morning; had the misfortune, as he took up a crystal cup, which was consecrated to the pro- phet, to let it fall upon the ground, and dash it to pieces. His son coming in some time after, he stretched out his hand to bless him, as his manner was every mor- ning; but the youth, going out, stumbled over the threshold and broke his arm. As the old man wondered at these events, a caravan passed by in its way to Mecca: the dervise approached it to beg a bless- ing ;,but as he stroked one of the holy camels, he received a kick from the beast, whi rely bruised him! His serrow and amazement increased upon him, un- til he recollected that, through hurry and inadvertency, he had that morning come abroad without washing his hands.” 9. Acqutre the habit of doing every thing well. S| It is well known that Johnson used to write and send copy to the press, without even looking it over by way of revising. This was the effect of habit. He began by composing slowly, but with great ac- curacy. We are naturally impatient of restraint, and have so little patience at our command, that it, is a rare thing to find a young man doing any thing as well ashe can. He wishes to do it quickly. And in the conversation of students, you seldom hear one tell how well he dif this | ing or that, but how quickly. This is a perni- cious habit. Any thing that is worth do- ing at all, is worth doing well; and a mind well disciplined in other respects. is defective, if it have not this habit. A young man, who ynexpectedly lost the af- y, of whom he was sufficiently fond, informed his friend, with a good degree of shrewdness, that he doubted not that he lost the prize from a very small cireumsta@hce. She handed him a letter which she had been writing to a friend, and asked him to direct it.— He did so, but in a manner so hurried and slovenly, (for it was his great ambi- tion to be quick in doing any thing,) that she blushed when she received it. From that little circumstance her affections seemed to cool, until they were dead to him. His friend comforted him by say- ing that “ she wa8 more than half right.” This incident is mentioned, not on ac- count of its a iad but to illustrate the point in hand. Every tling shapld be done well, and practice will soon enable you to do it quickly. How many are mis- erable readers, and miserable writers, as to manner and matter, because they do not possess this habit!

We have one of these men now in our eye, He is a very amiable, easy man, who never wishes to quarrel with his neighbors, and is aJ- ways willing to do them a favor when they @ in want of help. But he never pays his debts, if he'can avoid it. His bills at the store; at the shops of mechanics, perhaps for the fo which be eats or the raiment -he wears; are un- paid,.and he feels not the least nctions of conscience. on the suhject.. He'prays in his fam- ily and in: the social meeting, and some people think that he maf be a christian ; but men of the world say that if he would. be honest, would have a better opinion of. his religion, We see anotherdebtor, He has-no objec- tion to buying anything that-he’ can get upon trust : he will even subscribe: for .a_ religious neovepaper, or a new edition of the Bible, and makes loud professions of his willingness to aid this object and that, but when called on to pay his subscription, he is unfortunately just then out of money, he will certainly pay it in'a few days; but he is no more ready a month af- terwards than he was befure, and he never in- tends.to pay, He pretends nevertheless to bea pious man, but he deceives very few. Just now, we see another man of this always- owing and never.paying class. Some time ago, he Contracted a heavy debt, and he has never yet seen the time when he could pay the whole of it at onee ; ‘and, therefore, he has paid none of it. His income has been such that he might, with a little economy and denial, have paid a part.of the debt every year, and by this time have extinguished it; but his consciemce does not geem to trouble him at all, although he lives on that which does rot belong to him. Men may sophisticate as they please, they can never make it right, and all the bankrupt laws in the universe can never make it right for them to neglect to pay theimdebts. ‘Phere is stn in this neglect as Clear and as deserving church discipline, as im stealing or false swear- . He who violates his" promise to pay, or withholds the payment of a debt, schen it te with. in his power to meet his engagement, ought to be made to feel that; in the sight of God and of all honest men, he is a swindler, Religion may be a very comfortable cloak under which to hide ; but if religion does not make a man “deal iystly” it is not worth having.

General’ Frede: linghuysen, the fa- * ther of our egndidate; was his youngest son, and was born in 1753. onlyra short time before his father’s death. Thrown in early life upon his own resources, his character was: developed® and matured while still yourig in years.

In this post, so important in the first days of our untried institutions, he took an active part and contributed greatly to sustain and aid | the administration of Washington.

It is said that the character which he had acquired for integrity, and his fervid eloquence, ena- bled him to exercise an almost unlimited sway over the juries which he was called upon to address, In 1826 he was elected to a seat upon the bench of the Supreme Court, vacated by the r2signation of Judge Rassell, which he declined.

We use the strongest word designedly, because the offence which we desire to rebuke is one that, in aim- ing to degrade a very large number of as re- spectable American citizens from evéry portion: of the Union as the whole Union contains, is ' calculated to disparage and degrade the Ameri- can character in the eyes of the world.

THE PHILADELPHIA RIOTS are referred to by the Philadclphia Ledger as follows: * The direct loss to the city by the late riots, in the lessened amount of business for the week past, ha# far exceeded the amount of loss in property actually destroyed. _How large a sum to other cities, it woald be next to impossible to estimate. Every man in business, however, can answer the question for himself, and it pro- bably would not be excessive to assume that at least fifiy per cent. of the more active descrip- tion of trade has been cut off by the disorder and confusion that have prevailed. This will be found to amount to an enormous sum, if we run through the hundreds of wholesale and thousands of retail dealers of our city. The ate business of these in a week is pro- several millions of dollars, the half of which has been driven away and lost to our citizens. This is an enormous sum: but, great as it is, the loss in the value of real estate from the withdrawal of capital and capitalists from our midst, will as greatly exceed the loss to trade as the latter does the loss by the actual burning and destruction of property. And the loss in character and moral influence, which will wear to our prejudice for yearsand years, far outweighs all other losses combined. These are faéts which should be carefully examined and considered by our citizens, and the cause and authors of them held to strict account.” The Ledger also takes occasion to remark, what it asserted once before, that the Native Americans were not responsible for these riots ; and adds, that so far from sanctioning them, bably and maintain the laws. The North American, speaking on the same point, says that excessive injustice has been done on the one hand to the Native Ameriéan party, by charging it with the breaches of the law which have occurred, and, on the other hand, to the inhabitants of the city proper, and the districts actually adjacent, by rally the odium of acts | committed by comparatively a few persons of | the lowest class. Some of the persons who fired the churches were recognised by the police as old convicts, many of them were boys, and | none of them could be pointed out as members of the American party. It was, therefore, g ! motley and depraved crowd which ¢ontinued | the riots. From the Arkansas Inntelligencer, March 30. A LETTER FROM WILDCAT. Nothing will afford us greater -gratilication than to publish Wildcat’s letter to Gen.

Cuapman, members of Congress from Virginia, published in the Richmond Enquirer, some time since, has the following paragraph among others, of the same tendency. “Tt is possible, we trust, in such an emergency 8s the present, that in most, if not all, of the counties the peo- ple will take up the subject, and furnish us with some - formation as to their,@wishes.

Cass has been pub- lished in the Washington Globe, in which he comes out for the immediate annexation of Tex- as tothis country. It is stated at Washington, that there are letters of quite a different charac. ter from Gen. Cass, which may be spread be- fore the public, and if true will present the Gen- eral in a very unenviable light before the peo- ple, whose good will he appears so anxious to gain at the sacrifice of every thing like consis- tency. How he arrived at the conclusion that a large majority of the People of the United States “are in favor of annexation,” is beyond our comprehension. Has he seen no demon- strations of hostility to the measure on the part of the People, from the North, or South, East or West? If he has not, he certainly must have been asleep for the last five or six months. As for our own State, we do not believe the an- nexrationists can make any thing like a decent show, let alone being in the majority ! Levi Woodbury and N, Towson have been nominated for the Presidency, and both have avowed themselves favorable to annexation. WHIG VICTORY. First fire for Clay and Frelinghuysen ! ‘An election for Town Officers took place im Srracuse, New York, on the 7th inst., and ter- minated in the complete success of the Whigs with one exception. The majority averaging 172, which is equal to the largest majority ever given by the Whigs of Syracuse. Another.—F or the first time in the memory of man the little village of Geddes, in the same county, has elected a board of Whig Trustees, or four out of the five ; and a portion of the rest of the ticket. { Among the gentlemen, says the Balti- wore Patriot, who made speeches during the Convention days in Baltimore, not noticed be- fore were, Messrs. Barrtncer, Bynum, Nasu, and Ossornx, of North Carolina. They spoke at the Exchange with admirable eftect, and were cheered with rounds of applause. (<> A District Convention was held in Char- lotte on the 21st instant for the purpose of ap- pointing a Whig Elector for the 9th Electoral District. James W. Osporne, Esq., was se- lected, and will, no doubt, do battle manfully in the good cause. He is a staunch and zealous Whig, and a pleasant and popular orator, and will give a good account of Locofocoism when- ever called upon. Mr. Webster,—"The Boston Clay Club held a meeting on Thursday the 9th to re- | spond to the Baltimore nominations. Mr. Webster was present and made a speech, from which we extract the following : “Gentlemen, I wish once more, on this public occasion, to signify my hearty con- currence in all the proceedings of the Bal- timore Convention. [Enthusiastic ap- plause.] And I pledge myself, my char- acter, to exert whatever influence I may possess, to carry into effect the nomina- tions of that body; to sustain the men who will uphold the prinéiples of the Whig par- ty—that party which I regard as the true American party of the revolution and for all coming ages—nay, which I look upon as holding in its hands all that makes us great at home, or respected by foreign na- tions.” The Washington Correspondent of the Alba- ed Argus, who is Singer Aa informed, states the resignation of Calhoun may. be td expected, and that the retirement of Mr. Nelson, the Attorney General, is to be also for soon. The correspondent of the Courier, who is also careful'in his state- ments, corroborates this, and says that Mr. Calhoun’s resignation is certain; and alludes to | W. H ® number of changes said to be contemplated in the diplomatic ranks. 01 Gen, Duff Green is writing Jetters addressed to Mr. Mangum, of this State, about Texas and slavery.

He however promised on behalf of himself and wife, to remove the slaves to the colony in Africa or any free State whenéver their consent was obtain- ed. On these grounds Mr. Smith based his argument for the appellant and which is spoken of as a masterly effort. The Con- ference was also ably represented. Slavery.in some form or other has taken up the time of the Convention so far, and is likely to retard its proceedings to a con- siderable extent. On Saturday the 11th, after the cenclu- sion of the argument, Mr. Early moved that the decision of the Baltimore Confer- ence be reversed, which motion was nega- tived, 56 tol117.

The Chairman having briefly explained the object of the meeting to be, to call upon our Whig friends in the other Counties comprising the tenth Electoral District of N. C. to send delegates to a District Convention for the pur- pose of nominating a candidate for Presidential Elector for said District. On motion John H. McLaughlin, Abner Feimster and J. A. Young, Esqrs. was appointed a committee to propose a suitable time and place for holding said Con- vention ; who after a brief conference reported through J, A. Young, Esq., the following reso- lutions, viz: Resolved, That it is expedient for the Whigs to form their Electoral Ticket as early as pos- sible, and.that we propose to our brethren of this District to meet us in Convention at James >< Roads, in Iredetl County, (it being a conve- nient and central point) on rsday the 20th | of June next, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Presidential Elector in this Dis- trict. Resolved, That we will send five delegates to represent Iredell county in said Convention. Whereupon the following gentlemen were ap- pointed delegates, viz: Jos. P. Caldwell, Abner Feimster Jno. A. Young, A. C. McIntosh, and Wm. H. Haynes. On motion of J. A. Young, it was Resolved, That the procedings of this meet- ing be published in the Carolina Watchman. On motion the meeting adjourned. J. P. CALDWELL, Ch’m. W. H. Haynes, . C. A. Cartton, Secretaries. The people at the South are not by any means all of one opinion as to the propriety of annex- ing Texas to the Union. The Cheraw Gazette, for instance, one of the ablest country papers in South Carolina, and warmly attached to the political principles and fortunes of Mr. Calhoun, commenting upon the treaty documents, says : *## “ With the lights before us, we no longer hesitate or doubt, but declare emphatically that we are against the annexation of Texas under present circumstances ; neither do we think jt would be to the. interest of the Southern portion of this Confederacy, so long as Texas can retain her independence and the institution of slave- tala desire that she should come within the pale of our ws.” Connecticut wv. S. Senater—Hon. Jabez Huntington was re-elected U. S. Sen- ator by the Legislature of Connecticut on the. 9th. . In the House received 96 votes, Cleveland 78, g 3; in the Senate he’ had 15 and‘Oleveland 5. His next term of six years commences March 4,1845. ir The Washington correspondent of the Boston Courier says,¥inder date of May 12, that “the Presidént is determined upon another con- vocation of Congress, if it adjourns without favorable action upon the treaty, with the hope ‘to pass it by a joint resolution gf the two Hous- es.” ' , = “es Awful Denunciation.—The Globe in its ar- ticle on the V election, says : “ Some DEMOCRATS ‘deserve Haman’s fate. ” “had by i ma meg , in.the bounds of that Conference, are pro- ! the hope’ thiit'He would ‘comply with’ the'| is act RELINGHUYSE? ! son of the Rey, was born April 13,1’ mi. 1T10, naa in tee ra of ag wea mt by 3 Pea ap rgslaths ak, ;..& post. which be restanens in 3171) ip er to contin in the field as captain of corps, of. artillery, whose services hed been le to Congress.

In1793, after having received various testimonials of public confidence in dif- ferent State and c offices, he was chosen to a-seat in the Senate of the United States, and continued in that station until domestic bereave- ments and the claims of his family constrained him to resign in 1796. He died on the, anni- versary of his birth, in 1804, aged fifty-one, It was truly said of him that “at the bar he was eloquent, in the Senate he was wise, and in the field he was brave.” Gen’l, Frelinghuysen left three sons—John, Frederick, and Theodore—of whom only the last named survives, and he is now Chancellor of the University of New York, and the Whig candifdate for Vice President of the U. States QUARREL. The Globe is evidently alarmed at the position in which it finds itself. Having een accustomed to see its orders executed without a murmur, it was wholly unpre- pared for the storm of resistance which its late conduct has excited. In Wednesday evening’s Globe there appears an ample apology to the Richmond Enquirer for the application of the word “dupe” to it, and Mr. Blair “ dtls over” Mr. Ritchie in the most approved manner. The Enquirer accepts the apology as highly creditable to the Globe’s “magnanimity.” The Loco Foco Central Committee, with the excep- tion of Mr. Denoon(?) are out in a long address to the people on the subject of Texas, &c. These gentlemen take espe- cial pains to disavow all party motives in pushing the annexation question at this time, but it is easy to perceive that their last hope of defeating Mr. Clay and the Whigs rests on this question. That hope, as we have before said, will prove a vain one. There is scarcely a Whig in the Union who will be absorbed by this ques- tion in opposition to Mr. Clay. His rea- soning against the immediate annexation of Texas.will commend itself to his friends, and they cannot be induced to abandon him and all the great issues of the day, in order, by a violation of National Law, to secure an accession of Territory, and, at the same time, restore to power a party whose profligacy and misrule have well nigh ruined the country. Every calm and reflecting Whig, however anxious he may be to see Texas added to this Union, will ask himself this question: “ Shall I, in my eagerness to increase our Territory, assist in throwing the confederacy as it now ex- ists into the hands of the Loco Foco par- ty? Which should I most prize—a good, honest and prosperous Government of our present Territory, or an increase of Terri- tory with the certainty that the whole will be badly governed, and that all the hor- rors of Loco Foco misrule will be let loose on us for years to come !”—Pet. Int. MR, CLAY AND C. J, INGERSOLL. Extract from the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia U. S, Gazette. You will observe that Mr. C. J. Ingersoll has felt himself authorized to charge Mr. Clay with running a race of repudiation of protec- tion to home industry with Mr. Van Buren. This is a serious charge to be made by one in Mr. Ingersoll’s position. Mr. Clay was in the House of Representa- tives yesterday when Mr. Ingersoll coming u and adressing*him, Mr. C. said, “Mr. Ingersoll, by what authority do you say that I have repu- diated or abandoned the principle of protection?” Mr. I. replied ; upon the authority of a gen- tleman of integrity, a personal friend of yours and a high tariff man, who informed me that he had seen a letter written by you about the time of the passage of the compromise act, in which you agreed to give up principle of protection. Mr. Clay.—It is a falsehood.

The above is the substance, and as hear as can be recollected, the words of the conversa- tion. Mr. Ingersoll has made the charge, he must now produce the -proof or mmpreny ths 3 doubt not he will.

The A- merican trade in Santa Fe, this season, is said to have been reasonably prosperous. The aspect of affairs now is, that the tide of trade and emigr&tion will cause the Spaniards to yield Santa Fe, Senora, Chi- huahua, and California, and fall back on the Southern provinces of Mexico, and that this great country will be settled by enterprising emigrants from the United States and Europe.—New Era.

Age BY AGRICOLA. “Who does not like a good melon? Per- haps.a negative would never be given in answer. For a person to live, year after year, Without a, fruit so delicious, and, | might.add, so easily obtained, would be the | height of folly. In this it requires greater manage- | ment to produce melons, than in a more southern latitude. Our summersare short, but‘in this case nature produces a more | rapid growth of vegetation. Melons can | be culiivated here, as well as in other pla- | ces where the season is much longer.— | With proper care all difficulties may be | overcome, and the rewards of our labor | will be as delightful as our care has been watchful. Now, reader, if you wish to know (providing you do not already,) how to raise good melons—and not only mel- ons, but cucumbers also—let me try to in- form‘ you. Melons require a warm, rich, and san- dy soil. When you have selected your place or patch of ground forthem, be sure that the ground is well cultivated, made ‘nich, and free from weeds. ‘Phis done, let és eh Bn to commence as early in the season as ible, in the month of April, (but early an May willdo.) dig-holes in the ground about two-feet in diameter, and from#fif- ‘to eighteen inches deep ; fill the holés fh.fresh. manure from the barnyard, (manure unfermented,) and pound it down hatd; sothat the top of it will be about lev- of the ground—put on a about three or four inches of good ricgarden mould, then about one iftth Of fine ‘sand; plant your seeds, and cover them with €and about an inch deeps When this is done, have small ear s0°as to: cover the hill,) about four inches deep,, with no bottom to them. Place them on the hill, and have the glass in- clined so that the sun’s rays will strike di- rectly on the hills, The box should be re- moved. in the middle of warm days so as to. give fresh air tothe plants. The boxes should be used until the weather becomes so warm that the plants will need no pro- tection whatever. Planted in this way, the manure in the + hills will ferment and produce heat from }, below the plants, and the sun’s rays will produce from above, so that the Seeds will vegetate and grow as well as in mid-sum- mer, and the boxes will keep off the striped bag which so much injures the growth, until the: plant becomes so strong that they cannot injure them. Melons; treated in the same way, are equally productive ; but Jate planting needs nog so much ma- nure’in the hill, and can dispense with the boxes, unless the bugs become so trouble- some as to injure the plant while tender, when they become necessary ; but should beremoved eagly in the morning. “The boxes can be made b or mechanic that can use a h and many years. ing—which c each pill, * « fair trial, and to those who do not that any Wwements can be made, will not make them, why, I have to say.—Michigan Farmer.

Les gens d’arms! Ho! the guard!’ shouted the marshal, and the crowd without. ‘ Arrete vous, Monsieur,’ challenged a se- cond marshal within the door, plating the point of his sword at his breast. But the bold eava- | elier struck it aside, and passing into the hall, mingled with the, throng of masker before he could be arrésted,.and when the gens d’armes, arrived, he was not fo bo discovered with the strietest search. Half an hoor had elapsed, and a monk of the Capuchin order came to the door of the hall aud applied for admittance. His cowl was down, and his features invisible. * Lift your mask, good father,’ said the mar- | shal. ‘Nay, the rule applies not to me ; masks on- ly are to be lifted,’ answered the capuchin. ‘ But dost thou not call a cowl a mask? It surely is or thou art atrue monk and can have no business here.” Count _ who had an only hter, at the age of fourteen, who often came to the barriers, and by the indulgence of his keepers, talked with the prince ; for she knew his story, and felt for his sad fate. They thus became acquainted ; and the prince from being grateful, became deeply enamored with the beautiful, _ generous hearted girl, who, in many ways. se- cretly tried to soften the rigor of his imprison. | ment. After the prince was removed, on this | "very account, to closer quarters in the city, this young maiden deeply interested her confessor ‘in his fate.

He was admitted. . ‘ Pardon your majesty—byt if the prince Na- polean has not escaped, there is in Vienna, a person whose voice and carriage are his own.’ ‘What mean you?’ ‘Of whom do you speak?” ‘A mask, attired as a Venitian cavalier, who entered the hal! a few moments since, as I was loitering near.

The ceremony of marriage was ended, and the priest was pronouncing his benediction, when a commotion was apparent in the other part of the hall, near the door, and the throng ve way in terror before the stride of Metter | nich and the officers of the imperial police. ‘What means all this?” demanded Metternich of a general officer, as he came near. ‘ A mock marriage, prince ; but, by the mass, the priest has done it with a grace and unction as if he were in right earnest. There stand | the happy couple, who were the Capuchin not a priest in masquerade are as safely tied as ever were made man and wife !’ ‘There are the two, said Col. Necker. ‘It is he! arrest,them ! also the Capuchin.’ The prince resisted and drew his sword. In the melee, his mask fell off, and betrayed to all eyes the well known features of the captive prince. There was a general utterance of sur- prise, and a feeling of deep interest! Simul- taneously, several of the maskers made a move- ment so as 16 obstruct the police, and favor his escape. He was soon separated from Prince Metternich andCol. Necker and before the mass could be penetrated, the bridegroom and bride had been assisted by two French officers out of the hall into a carriage. Several of the gen- tlemen sprung upon the box and fuotboard, and it drove with rapidity to a distant part of the city, where the prince and his bride were soon in safety in a retired mansion near the walls, occupied by a French officer. Here they re- mained many a month secreted while every means were set on foot by the emperor for their discovery, and at the same time plans were constantly forming by their friends for getting them out of the city. At length their retreat was discovered. The prince was arrésted, but his wife escaped in disguise, and reached Paris. His confinement was now more rigoroas than before ; the severi- ty of which, added to his griet at the separation from his lovely and devoted wife, soon wore up- | on his spirit and health ; and in a few months afierwards he died a captive.

Signing a Pledge on a Coffin.—In Ohio, at a funeral, a father became so intoxica- ted that he could go no farther, and he lay a long time on the ground, with no one | near him but his little boy ; he tried, but could not get his father home.

By this time the gals was holt of me hollerin ‘April Fool ! April Fool !’ as hard as they could, and when I come to look, I had nothin’ in my arms but a bundle of rags with little Henry Clay’s cloths on. I shuck all over like I had a ager, and felt a monstrous sight more like cussin than laughin. ‘April Fool, dingnation !’ ses I—‘fun’s fun ; but I’m ded blamed: if there’s any fun in any sich doins ;’ and I was jest gwine to blow out a little, when I heard Mary screaming for me to come to her mother. When we got in the dining-room thar the old woman was ireeld over in her cheer. with her eyes sot in her head and a corm muffin stickin in her mouth. Mary was takin on at a terrible rate and all she could do was jest to clap her hands and koller— Ob mother’s dyin ! mother’s dyin! whar’sthe baby? Ohmy poor mother! Oh, my darlin baby ! I tuck Mary and ’splained it all to her and tried to quiet the poor gal, and the gals got at the old woman ; but it took all sorts of rubbin, and ever so much assafedity and campfire and hartshorn and burnt feather’s to bring her too, and then she would’nt stay brung too more’a a minit, for she’d keel over agin, and I do be- lieve if they had’nt brung little Henry Clay down so she could see him and feel him and hear him squa, she never would got her senses agin. She aint more’n half at herself yet. All the gals kin do, they can’t make her anderstand the April Fool business, and she wont let no body but herself nurse the baby ever sense. As soon as I had time to think a little, I was so monstrous glad that it warn’t no worse I couldn’t stay mad with the gals. But I tell you what, I was terribly rathy for a few minits. I don’t believe in this April foolin. Last year the gals devil’d me almost te.death with theiraon- sense, sowin up the legs of my trowsers, borein holes in the water gourd, so I wet my shirt bo- som all over when I went to dridk, and bendin the handle of the tongs, and cuttin the cowhide bottoms of the cheers loose sol fell through the 3d monday in February, 1844, and in the 66h year of our independence, this 23d March, 1844.

[Spoken with emphasis and followed by tremendous cheers.] The present circumstances of the “country, its public prosperity, the general contentment ‘and happiness of the People in their ' business employments, show that much good has been done by the revolution in 1840. Our duty now is to hold on to what is good, and to obtain as much more as we can—[a; laugh]—to achieve as far forth as we can, the general prosperity of the country, end to establish on some fixed, some. settled basis, the great interests of ‘the People.—Nothing is more ruinous to a country, gentlemen, than a policy always uncertain, evervacilldting.

Now, it strikes me, that if, in the correspondence of Mr. Van Buren, this Yankee phrase was adopted, it would be a great labor saving phrase, for when new questions were put him, he could an- swer, “Oh, I ‘dont pnow, pretty well, I thank ye, pretty much as usual.” (Cheering and loud outbreaks of laughter, mingled with hurrahs for some time prolonged.]} I never could agree, gentlemen, to that maxim of the poet— “In forms of Government, let fools contest, Whatever is best administered is best.” I know, we all know that under certain forms of Government, men are more likely to enjoy happiness, and to be able to pro- tect their own interests. There are cer- tain forms of Government, too, into the elements of which enter a deeper and a larger regard for the public interests and the public sentiments, But, in disputing as to the forms of Government, there’ is one great, one important truth, men are apt to overlook, and that is, no form of government, however pleasing in theory, howevér hitherto successful jn practice, can work out the good of the people gov- erned, under a bad administration of that government. Government is not a mere piece of mechanism, that need but to be wound up right togo right forever. It is not acotton jenny, but a moral process, calling for good intentions, for honesty, for good conduct. A constitution of govern- ment is estential to guide public senti- ments, as a compass or the stars, or the sun and the moon are essential for the navigator, or as the light houses extend- ing over thousands of miles of coast: but neither the compass nor the stars, nor the light houses, on every promontory, will avail, unless there be a regular bred sea- man at the helm. So in political affairs, |or in a constitution of government, there | may be prohibitions or restraints, but if | we have at the helm a man who will not |see the light of heaven, who pays no 'regard to the compass, or the chart, no matter how magnificent the vessel his pow- er is over, she must be shipwrecked, not- withstanding all this. (Cheers, and cries of “good.”) Therefore, it isa duty incum- bent on every generation, on all men, to | act with vigilance, nay, 1 may say, with | jealously, for jealousy is often a virtue in a republican form of Government. It is ‘the duty of the citizen to observe every | thing, or to have every thing observed. It | is the price of his citizenship, the cost of | his privileges,—and it is a duty that can- not be put on or put off. I don’t deem it too much to say, then, that as to this coun- try, there is thus a duty in this guardian- ship, an obligation imperative upon us, which cannot be shaken off, and demand- ing self-sacrifices, according to our profes- sion of principles, and the name we bear. We call ourselves Whigs, and we cherish the name of Whig. Who are our ances- |tors? I see some of them here before me, | bearing on their chests the badges of 1776. Whigs they are now. Whigs they were then. (Cheers.) Companions of Washing- ton, the link that connects our generation with him. [Renewed cheering.]} We bear a name, then, of lofty renown, a renown that must never be sullied; a name won amid wounds, and scars, and blood, denoting great and self-sacrificing patriotism, and enrolling upon its record the highest characters that emblazon our history. It belongs to us, then, if true to ourselves, tenderly to guard and to cher- ish the honor of such a name, and to re- member with it the spirit there is attached to it. Our destiny now cannot:be dissev- ered from it—And while nothing should be done to frighten us from our propriety, nothing should lead us to give up one of the principles that belong to it. is to preserve the Constitution our Whig ‘fore- fathers bequeathed us ; to uphold its prin- ciples, to carry out its measures, to act up- on its injunctions, to see that honest and able hands administer it ; to take care that while ‘it is intrusted to our guardianship, it | suffers nothing of disgrace from the way we watch over it. And let us so conduct be a wreck of that noble strueture, the greatest work. of the .world, there shall be. no record that shall be’ found to ascribe ‘ of ourselves, and so educate those whocome |. | after us, and leave children, that if there |- that to Whig: violence, Whig misrule, or Whig ambition.

They have never been explained, and are of course connected in a most extraordinary and super- natural degree with the acts of Mr. Van Buren. No person of common sense can deny that they relate as much to him as the other circumstan- ces were influenced by the whigs. The only difference is, we shall write no pamphlets on the subject, leaying every one to judge for him- self of the following particulars : The day that Mr, Van.Buren,was inaugura- ted President, a nest of rattlesnakes was found under a jog in Arkansas, anda boy much alarm- ed thereat, The same year, a man fishing was upset, and lost his hat. In the winter of 1838, a rabbit in Missouri stuck fast in the snow, and was taken asleep with his eyes open. What a miraculous event ; Just think of it—a poor friendless rabbit, in the attempt to find food, perished in the snew : On the night of the 30th September, 1830, just as Mr. Van Buren put out his candle to go to bed, a powder mill in the west exploded, and shook the earth for miles round. It is not posi- tively certain that a spark from Mr. Van Buren’s candle ignited the powder, but the inference is strong. Precisely a month afterwards, a man died in New Orleans from excessive drink, and what is remarkable, he was the same age of Mr. Van Buren, and had a bald head. On the 5th of December, 1839, being Mr. Van Duren’s birthday, a dark cloud was seen moving in the shape of a pancake, only much larger. At night the stars and moon re- fused to Shine. The next day while Mr. Van Buren was feasting at a rich dinner table, a poor man in Florida, with a wife and twelve children, ate corn bread and bacon only. At the very hour ending three years of his administration, it snowed on the spot where Mr. Van Buren was born; while at New Orleans, where the glorious battle of eigthth of January was fought, the day was warm and cloudless. In July following, a man in Illinois, who swore ona sabbath morning that he intended to vote for Van Buren, died suddenly. We might extend the list of casualities that happened during the four years ; but these are enough to create a belief that Mr. Van Buren had some agency, direct or indirect, in bringing them about. If he is not to blame, let him prove his innocence. It will he easy for him to. show. the real cause, if he had no hand in these calamities.. Until] he does that, his posi- tion will be involved in mystery. We ask the people to reflect upon the matter calmly, and if they believe these occurrences could have. hap- pened without the agency of Mr. Van Buren, we shall be satisfied, IMPROVED THRASHING MACGARIVBS 2 HE subscriber has been appoined Agent, (and the only agent in this State,) for the sale of Wm. Kirk- patrick’s Portable Horse Power and TPQnwmsQae fiong RAnelasonessg for thrashing. Wheat, Rye, Oats, and small seed, and hulling Clover Seed. The improvement which makes these machines supe- rior in a southern and even northern country, is an open cylinder with wrought iron spikes securely ecrewed in, thereby obviating the danger of the spikes flying out, as sometimes happens with close cylinders, which greatly endangers the lives of the operatives. An instrument called a “ &haker” separates the wheat from the straw. The horse power is a decided improvement, as there are but two. cog-wheels,and a band working horizontally, which greatly reduces the friction, and consequently the labor of the horses. Of these machines no fears need be entertained as td their performance, for the reason of their having been tried successfully by the agent. They. can be transported on one wagon from one farm to arnfother, and after arriving at the.place where the work is to be done, can be put up andget in operation in 15 or 20 minutes. With four good horses and four hands these machines will thrash of good wheat four hundred bush- els per day. I now propose tosell the power machine, with 65 feet of band and all other. necessary apparatus, delivered at Fayetteville’ for $150 00, or at my residence for $170 00. and ready for inspection, should any one wish to examine. I am authorized to sell these machines on a credit of 12 months ; no performance’ ne pay, ordinary care being taken. All orders for machines, or other communica- tions, forwarded to my address at Clemmonsyille, N.C., will receive prompt attention. Wa. J. McELROY.

FOR GOVERNOR OF NORTH CAROLINA, © i BARGAIN AND CORRUPTION.” Li Bo, » Locofoco member of Congress front Kentucky, bis had the unblushing effront. ery in his place, to renew the charge of “ bar- gaifi and.corruption,” between Megsrs. ADAMS and Cray; in 1824; when the latter voted for Mr. Apams for President in preference ‘to the Old Hero of the Hermitage. Hew any man, occupying the station of Mr. Born, can at this late day, and who, by the bye, counts him. self a gentleman, have the hardihood to renew this stale slander, we cannot divine ;’ and espe- cially after it has been ‘so fully proven to be a u1E of the blackest kind not, only: through the lapse of time, but by Mr, Apams himself, and by Carrer Beverty, of Virginia, who first originated the charge. The cause of any party must be desperate indeed, that resorts to such means to make “a raise ;” and is a sure sign |- of inevitable defeat in the coming contest for President. The locos may let loose the “ dogs of war” in every possible manner imaginable upon Mr. Curay, to keep him out of the execu- tive chair, and it wont do, for the People have willed him to be the man who is to restore the country once more to the prosperous state in which it was before the induction of Gen. Jacx- SON into office, the greatest calamity beyond a doubt, that ever befel the country. The People for a time, and it was natural they should, from the howl that was raised from one. end of the Union to the other, by the “ bull dogs” of Gen. Jackson, gave countenance to the vile charge : but so soon as the excitement began to subside, they clearly saw the injustice of the attempt to ruin Mr. Cuavy’s character, and are determined to show their utter disbelief of it by triumphantly elevating Mr. Cray tothe first office in their gift, by such a majority as no man has ever yet received at their hands. It ig well known to all, and we hope it will be borne in mind, that the most pure and unpo- luted of .all our public men, are not secure from the poisonous shafts of “ modern ” democracy, as the case of Mr. Fre.incuuysrn, of New Jersey, the Whig candidate for the Vice Presi- dency, will show, than whom, no purer and bet- ter man exists, as to public and private char- acter. It was stated in the Whig National Convention, by those intimately acquainted with him, that even that ingrate and debased wretch, Amos Kendall, would not dare to abuse and vili- ty him. But we see they have been mista- ken; Kendall has opened his battery in the most disgraceful and blasphemous manner on the heretofore irreproachable character of Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. He has also been charged with abolitionism by the Southern locofocos ; while atthe North, the “ Emancipator,” the principal Abolition paper is opposing him with all its might on the ground that he is a “slaveholder.” Who isto be believed, the unprincipled Locofoco dema- gogues at the South, or the Editor of the Eman- cipator, who is almost as it were next door- neighbor to Mr, Fretrncuuysen? For our- selves, we have no confidence in either, but would as soon. believe the Emancipator as these loud-mouthed Locofocos. And we have not the least hesitation in pronouncing the charge of Ab- olitionism brought against Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN, untrue in every sense. If Locofocoism can have the temerity to call a man, owning fifty or a hundred Necroxs ‘an abolitionist, what will it not do when he is a resident ot a non-slaveholding State? We have all along believed, and are more firmly convinced of the correctness of the opinion than ever, that all this noise about abolitionism is nothing less than the work of a set. of corrupt and designing politicians, to raise themselves from the place of refiracy in which their anti- republican: principles has thrown them ;—and where they richly deserve to be kept for all time to come. Murder.—We learn by a gentleman from Wilkesboro’, that Maj. W. W. Pepen, of that place, was found dead in the road, on the even- ing of the 21st. ult., in the neighborhood of the village, having been shot from his horse while returning home from the country. When found he was quite dead, the ball having entered be- tween the shoulders and: passed out at’ the breast.

How ‘any rational man can favor such a fla. grant violation of solemn treaties, which exist between the two nations, we cannot conceive. It seems.to us, that one man might with the same propriety seize the land of his neighbor because it lies contiguous to his own, as for the United States to rob Mexico of this vast extent of territory. For ourselves, we are opposed to annexation not only on.account of the disgrace such @ course must inevitably bring upon ow own untarnished honor—and of the injustice te Mexico, but because of the immense loss it wil] cause to the Southern States by draining them oftheir weatlth ; because it will without a doult increase the quantity of Cotton raised, and thereby reduce the already diminished price of this great staple of the Southern States. And upon the Sugar planters, as well as reduce the value of the improved and unimproved lands. MR. CALHOUN ON THE TARIFF. The following paragraph will show the peo. ple what were the opinions once promulgated by Mr. Calhoun, now the leader of the British Free Trade Party in the United States, in re. gardto the Tariff. If he is correctly under. stood now, the opinions entertained and go ably advocated by him in 1816, are diametrically opposed to those which he now holds : The anneéxed'extract is taken from a speech delivered by JohmC. Calhoun, on the Tariff of 1816. Mr. Calhoun said: “ That he was no manufacturer ; that coming from the South, he and his constituents had ne interest but in the cultivation of the soil.” “ That to atford manufacturers ample protea tion, would enable the farmer to sell his pro ducts high, and buy all his wants and conven iences of life cheap.” “ That a tariff of protection was of vital im. portance to the security and permanent prospe- rity of the Union.” “That it would produce an interest, strictly American, as much as agriculture, and far more so than commerce and navigation. “That it would préduce a new and most pow. erful cement to the Union, far outweighing any objections that migght be urged against the sys tem.” “ That it would preserve us from a new and sale ea, aS hee whieh we ought to be perpetua ed.” “ And that it would afford to the cotton and woolen manufacturers protection which would place them beyond the reach of contingency.” Who would have thought Mr. Calhoun would be the first to advocate doctrines leading direct. ly to “ DISUNION” and an utter annihilation of Protection to our “ Cotton and Woolen Man- ufacturers” after expressing the sentiments containedin the above? Séhtiments too, which have received the unqualified sanction of the Fathers ‘of the Republic, as the only means w make us a nation worthy of the name of Free men, We confess, that when we reflect qm so liberally endowed Mr, Calhoun with, we art surprised at his inconsistent and unstatesmaa like course on this subject as well as on ever] other. THE PLAN FOR DEFEATING MR. CLAY. The Washington Standard states that it has been put in possession of the plan of the Locos for defeating Mr.Clay. The plan is to break up the nominating Con- vention in a row, and each of the two factions to nominate its favorite for the Presidency, The Texas portion will rua a-man at the South, with Southern prir- ciples,—for ; Free Trade, &c.,—and the anti-Texas portion will ran a man witb ‘Northern principles, for a discriminating Tariff, anti-Texas, &c.' If this plan shall succeed in carrying the election into the House of Representatives, it ia understood that the, candidate who has received the | ‘largést ¢lectoral vote is to be made Pre * sident.”” uot ~ We'should not be surprised if » plsm. like this, were on.foot, for the Locos will not hesitate; to. make a: sacrifice of thet dearly beloved-principles'! if it ‘will secu , m atriumph. ‘Power and the spas. fice % all they want: For this they would deny every principle they heve pr” fessed; Principles, with-them, is but dus in the ‘balance when ‘compared to the u> The Peter* , “we > ‘Tatelligencer ak seyeral, of the party in this region openly adyocate;.such -e plan for defeating Mr. very muck generous sod | LOO ap Se rere trait | nal eather on ps we 3 if the Democraoy were to run their alrong: | est man in each State, Mr. Clay would get a majority of the electoral votes, _ The People are determined to make him their Chief Magistrate, and all the intrigues which the wit of Locofocoism can devise cannot silence their voice or defeat their will.” A NEW PROJECT ror ANNEXATION — By compact with Lowisiané on- gress rejec eaty. | The Richmond Compiler says: We have ‘nformed the reader of the movements in N. Orleans in favor of annexation and of Mr. Calhoun for President. We have not seen a full report in the N. Orleans papers of the proceedings on the occasion. The Tropic, however, gives two of the resolu- tions adopted by the meeting, which de- velope what may, indeed, be called a most remarkable scheme, to be resorted to in case the pending treaty fails. These reso- lutions are as follows: Resolved, That it is peculiarly the duty of the now inte of Lociaiann to vindicate the rights of the inhabi- tants of said territory between the Sabine and the Rio del Norte, to incorporation into the Federal Union. Resolwed, That the inhabitants of Texas having: re- tedly manifested great anxiety for the incorporation of their republic into the Federal Union, it will become the duty of the State of Louisiana in the event of the rejection of the treaty of annexation, to take immediate steps for the formation of a compact with the Republic of Texas, subject to the constitutional action of the Con- gress of the United States, the object of which will be to extend the boundary of Louisiana to her ancient limits. This is a very bold scheme, and very frankly avowed. The 10th section of the ist article of the U.S. Constitution begins thus— “ No STaTe SHALL ENTER INTO ANY TREA- TY, ALLIANCE OF CONFEDERATION,” &c. Of course the project for the violation of this prohibition has been avowed only by a portion of the citizens of the Crescent city, and they are a very long way from speaking authoritatively the voice of Lou- isiana. It is intimated in the Nat. Intelligencer, that alt the documents in relation to the recent Naval and military movements in the Gulf of Mexico and towards the Texan border, were not submitted to the Senate by the President, but have been ; and that he has taken stepa beyond indicated in the published ps eu by which the government is dange- ly involved. . From the Greensborough Patriot, of May the 25th. NAVIGATION OF THE YADKIN. Being at Rockford, in Surry county, during the last county court, we heard a good deal said about a Boat which had been brought up the river from Salisbury to Williams’ lime-kiln, withia three miles of Rockford. We believe it is the first vessel ever carried up the river entirely for trading purposes. It is a common keel boat about 60 feet long. It was a matter of surprise to the people among those hills how it had surmounted the difficulties presented by sundry shoals which break the surface of the river; but there was the boat—evidence that it had passed all obstacles: and it took in 7000 lbs. of lime and proceeded homewards. As we passed Conrad’s ferry—below Bean shoals, which, we believe, is considered the most dan- gerous obstacle to navigation above the Nar- tows—we saw the boat safely yliding down the noble stream with her freight. This shows what can be done ; and we have no hesitation in believing that an appropriation of public mo- ney could not be better laid out than in complet. tag the improvements commenced some years agoon the Yadkin. A safe and sufficient boat channel can be made through most of the shoals to a point above Rockford, and those presenting most difficulty might be cana!led. The facili- ties Of water carnage thus procured between the Narrows and the mountains, it does seem to us, Would much more than reimburse the ex- penditure made to effect it. So say we, brother Pat. We have no doubt of the practicability of making the Yadkin nav- igable for boats; nor have we any of such a work reimbursing the expenditure to accomplish it, many times over. The whole valley of the Nadkia is rich and fertile, yielding abundant crops of grain, cotton, and other products of the farm, and which, if there a convenient mode of transportation to market, would be vastly in- creased. The opening of the Yadkin would do this : it would arouse the energy and stimu- late the industry of thousands who live in its valleys, which is now comparatively dormant. No one can foresee the effect it might produce in this of the State, towards developing its résources, and enriching its inhabitants. Pri- vate enterprise is manifesting itself here at this time, and we cannot too ardently wish it suc- cess. It may be the good fortune of Mr. Wm. 8. Macay, John W. Ellis, Esq., and others, of bery and vicinity, and Capt. Hickman, of the’ Exprzarmmeyr” boat, to arouse a feeling and interest on the subject of navigating’ the Yadkin, which may be felt through all time to come, Capt. Hickman, we understand, spoke of at- tempting to pass through the “ Narrows,”’ in his voyage downward. This, it seems to us, would be a most hazardous adven‘ure. P.S. Since writing the above, we learn that Capt. H. did not attempt a passage through the Narrows. He proceeded as far down as Mr. ’s Factory, about 25 miles from this - ‘From thence the boat has returned to Brown's ferry. But Capt, H. having procured ® caties below the Narrows, has gone on an exploring expedition down the river.” Notice.—The Whigs of Surry, before they taw the in Racks svageated the 19th of June, y es Special Court, as ren for the Electoral District Convention ‘o meet at Germanton, and recommended ‘that | tial election give the largest proceedings of the late Whig meeting./- NATIONAL PRIZE.

The Centra] Clay Club of Dauphin county, Pennsylvania, in a letter written on the 25th ultimo, invited Mr. Clay to visit Harrisburg on his way home. In the letter of invitation were made some excellent remarks in reference to the deep interest Pennsylvania has in the Ta- riff, and the obligation the State is under to Mr. Cray for his unceasing support of that great measure. Mr. Cray replied as follows : Wasuineton, May 11, 1844. Gentlemen: I received the letter which you did me the honor to address me, inviting me, pryor to my return home, to visit the capital of Pennsylvania. Subsequent to its date, I thought it right to announce to the public my determination to make no visits, nor attend any pub- lic meetings which might be deemed political, until the Presidential election was decided. To that determina- tion [ shall adhere. It deprives me of the pleasufe of accepting your friendly invitation. Gentlemen, I agree with you that “no State in this Union would be benefited more by the permanent estab- lishment of a sound Whig policy than Pennsylvania.” I have had the great satisfaction always to agree with Pennsylvania in regard to public measures whenever the genuine feelings of Pennsylvania have been fairly ex- pressed. There was not merely a cordial concurrence, but an intimate friendship between her Findlay, Smilie, Lacock, Roberts, Brown, and other distinguished sons, and me, in the Congress which declared the last war. I united also with the survivors of them, or other eminent citizens of that State, in laying the foundation of the na- tional prosperity after a return of peace. Ihave no re- collection of any important public measure respecting which I have differed from Pennsylvania. I was perfect- ly aware that “ the time was when the people of Penn. sylvania were made to believe that you were not their friend.” Acting under the maxim that honesty was the best policy, and upon the conviction that truth is omnipo- tent and public justice certaia, I bore the unmerited re- proaches cast upon me as became me. I have not been disappointed. I stand vindicated, in the hearts and by the spontaneous acclamations of my fellow-citizens. The industry and malignity of my enemies will no doubt prompt perseverence in these attacks. Perversions of my language, misrepresentations of my course, old scraps from tattered and obsolete newspapers, even fabrication and forgery, are and will continue to be employed to vituper- ate and vilify me. But, like all preceding assaults, they will be unavailable, and I shall remain invulnerable to them all. In the mean time, I congratulate you on the bright and cheering prospects of the establishment of that Whig pol- icy so essential, I believe, not only to the prosperity of Pennsylvania, but to that of the whole Union. I hap- pened to be in the House of Representatives when an im- portant policy signally triumphed. The Tariff of 1842 has been bitterly denounced, and gross epithets applied to it. Its repeal was pronounced to be a favorite object of our political opponents. They have a majority of some fifty or sixty in the House. A bill to repeal that Tariff has been pending a great part of the present session of Con, And yet, yesterday, on a test vote, a majori- ty of the Honse decided against the repealing bill, leaving the Tariff of 1842 in FULL and saLUTARY OrgRATION '— This decision was an involuntary concession of our politi- cal opponents to the wisdom: and beneficence of Whig policy, produced by the returning prosperity of the coua- try, and the enlightened opinion of the people. But, gentlemen, I have a much higher gratification than any which could be derived from that decision of the House of Representatives. It is, that the People of the United States, from the St. John’s to the Sabine, who have been so long divided and agitated on the question of the encouragement of domestic industry, are about to settle down in union and harmony upon the equitable ba- sis of raising, in time of peace, the amount of revenue requisite to an —— administration of the Govern- ment exclusively | reign imports, by a Tariff so ad- Justed ae that, by proper diseriminatioas, just and reason- able encouragement shall be extended to American In- dustry. May this unien and harmony pervade all other great measures of public policy, and nothing occur to disturb the peace, sully the character, or check. the on- ward and glorious march of our % I am your friend and obedient servant, H.C.

The Whigs of the Western Reserve and Northern Ohio, to the number fifteen thousand, says the Baltimore American, assembled at Cleveland on the 15th instant to ratify the nominations of Clay and Frelinghuysen. The Whigs of Davidson county, Tennessee, assembled at Nashville, in great numbers, on the 11th inst. for the same pu - Both of these meetings passed off splendidly. The Whigs of Chatham county, Georgia, held a similar meeting in the city of Savannah on the 13th instant. A number of very appro- priate resolutions were adopted by acclamation —among them the following very emphatic one: Resolved, That we repudiate Mr. John Tyler, annex- ation or no annexation, and that we go for Henry Clay, and Whig principles, annexation or no annexation, con- fident that in either contingency, he will so manage that and all our other foreign relations, as will redound to the honor of the nation and the welfare of the people. In the Senate, besides the public proceedings of which our readers receive a daily account, it is understood that, in closed doors, each da since the conclusion of Mr. Benton’s a | against the ratification of the “ Treaty of An- nexation,” from the hour of one o’clock to the hour of adjournment, has been employed ina con- tinuation of that debate, which is said to be conducted with decorum as well as ability on both sides, and listened to with unusual serious- ness and earnestness of attention. On Tues- day, Mr. Walker addressed the Senate in favor of the Treaty ; on Metnester Mr. Choate a- gainst it; on Thursday Mr. McDuffie in favor of it; and yesterday Mr. Miller against it; when further discussion of the subject was post- ar to Thursday next, (in consequence, pro- bly, of the desire of some members to be pre- sent atthe Convention at Baltimore on day.)—Nat. Int. of 25th ult. From the Nat. Intelligencer. The votes in the House of Representatives yesterday indicate a sound state of opinion in that body on both the Texas and Oregon ques- tions. There is little chance (using the phrase in its colloquial sense) of a vote passing even the House of Representatives for violating an existing treaty with one nation,.by seizure of territory in the South, or abrogatin® existing treaty stipulations with another, to force unsea- sonably the natural tendency of things in the Northwest. With regard to the Texas ques- tion, indeed, we are not ‘sure that the feeling against the recent action ot the Executive in the matter of Texas is not as strong, if not stronger, among a portion of the “ Democratic’ mem- bers of Congress than among their opponents. In evidence of which we take the following ex- tract from the Washington Correspondence of the New York (Democratic) Evening Post : Wasuincton, May 19, 1844. “ I have never known a state of such intense feeling as appears now to exist here. There really seems to have arrived a crisis in our national affairs. No one now entertains a doubt of the intentions of the Executive to commence a disgraceful war with Mexico, or, what is the same thing, to take forcible possession of the province of Texas, the moment Congress adjourns. The man deserves impeachment, and it is fully expected by some that charges will be brought against him in the House, and sent up to the Senate for that purpose. But the at- tempt to do so would be futile. There are other means of preventing this foul dishonor being brought upon the nation. Impeachment and removal from office are not the only modes of proceeding designated, or allowed by the constitution for the assertion and maintenance of the powers of the Legislature and the preservation of the rights of the people, when in danger of utter subversion by the executive and military power. The military and the revenues of the country may be taken from under his control. At least the latter may, and the former may be rendered powerless in his hands.

This is the sort of head that becomes a newspaper.—Fay. Caro. We agree with you, Mr. Carolinian; the Watchman has a pretty head. We admirg the heading letter very much ; but would criticise the general style of the head, including mofto, &c. It perhaps lacks simplicity—uniqueness —of appearance.

A rumor has reached us however, that Mr. Tyler was nominated for the Presidency by a Convention of his friends which met in Baltimore, at 10 o’clock, on the morning of the 27th ult. This movement took place two hours before the Democratic Convention met, and was doubtless intended to force the Captain on that party. We heard further, that the Tyler Convention intended to make over. tures to the Democrats, and if possible to pro- cure his nomination by them. Will they suc- ceed? The next mail will bring us all the news in relation to these matters. By the way, here is a picture: John Tyler, elected as a Whig Vice President, deserts his friends, and after having served the Locofocos in every possible way, finds himself at last bending the knee, and suing for favor at their hands. But such is the merited tate of traitors. CONGRESS. In the Senate, on Monday the 20th, several memorials against annexation of Texas were presented. On Wednesday, the 23d May, in the House of Represeniatives, among a multitude of mi- nor matters, a motion was made to take up the bill to extend the jurisdiction of the U. States over the Oregon Territory, which was reject. ed, 82 to 43. On Friday, 24th, a test question, (it is believ- ed,) was taken in regard to Texas, by a motion to lay on the table certain resolutions from New Orleans in favor of re-annexing Texas. They were laid on the table, 103 to 78. [Messrs. Barringer, Clingman, and Deberry, voted for, and Messrs. Arrington, Daniel, McKay, Reid, and Saunders, against laying on the table.]} The Carolina Watchman, printed at Salis. bury, in this State, has recently very much im- roved in typogrophical appearance, and is pub- ished by Messrs.

Tt } ~ AGRICULTURE, DANA’S PRIZE ESSAY ox MANURES. Manures composed chiefly of Mould. And now, reader, having been brought by this course of reasoning, to what the mould ‘wants, [i. e. salts,] consider what tensand tons of useless mould you have in you? swamp muck and peat bogs, your hassocks, and your turfy meadows. All these, foot: upon foot in depth as they lie, are truly vegetable mould, in a greater or less degree of decay. If you dig this up, and expose it to the air, that itself.sets it t8work, decay is hastened, volatile mat- ters escape, yea, ammonia, the master- spirit among manures, is secretly forming and at work, warming and sweetening the coldandsourmuck. Without further pre- paration, practice confirms what theory teaches, that this process alone furnishes from'these beds of vegetable mould, a very good manure. It is already highly charged with all the salts which a plant wanfs.— But experience, doubtless led by the light of the good ‘results of mixing meuld with animal matter to preserve its strength has. also reversed the practice, and taught the ; utility of adding to vegetable mould, quickening salts ; that is, either the vola- tile alkali, by composing the mould with stablé manure, or alkali in the shape of ashes, or potash, or soda-ash. or lime, or a mixture of these. «In fact, whatever sub- ither,to improvement not ais tempts at improving your worn-out s, Sfeaye supposing you have not a. barn- cellar, hogs, atid swamp-muck, so aptly called bywne of your own self-made prac- ptesume you may like to know the propor- tions in which ‘you may mix a ‘swamp- muck ‘and alkali. You can hardly gq wrohg Here by tising two much ; the great danger is, you will use too little alkali— But calculating on the proportion of mopid in fresh dug swamp-much, or peat, it may be stated a8 a rule, grounded on the quan- tity of quickening power in a cord of sta- ble manure, that every cord of swamp muck requires eight bushels of common ashe’, or thirty unds of common potash, ot twenty pounds of white or soda-ash, to convert it into manure equal, cord for cord, to that from your stable. Dig up your péat in the fall let it lay over winter to fall to powder, calculate your quantity when fresh dug, and allow nothing for shrinking in the spring; when youg alkali is to be well mixed in with the mould, and, after shoveling over for a fe eeks, use it as you would stable manure: ‘These quantities.of ashes and alkali are the lowest which maybe advised. Three or four times this amount may be used with advantage but both the quantity of | alkali and the number of loads per acre, must’and will be determined by each for himself. It'is a question of ways and méans, rather than of practice, But sup- posing the smallest quantity of ashes or of alkali to be used which we have advised, then at least five cords of the compost.| should be used per acre. ‘This may be | applied to soil, light or heavy. But there | is angther ferm of this same swamp muck and alkali, which should be used only on light, loamy, sandy soils, to produce its greatest henefit, though even on heavy | soils, if not very wet, it may be used with great advantage. This is a compost. of one cord of spent ashes.to three cords, of | swamp muck. This is decidedly the best mixture which has yet been tried,— We have in this all that,mixture of vari- ous salts andmoauld whieh plants, and both by the action of the mould and by that.of the air, the alkali of the spent ashes, which no leaching would extract, is, saon let loose, and produces all the effects of. so niuch.clear potash or soda. Ihave thus, reader, given you a few of! the ways by which you may convert your | peat bogs and swamps into manure, when | you havé neither cattle nor hogs. I have | stance by putrefaction give off volatile al- kali, will, and mitist, and does, convert vé- géetable mould, of itself dead and inactive, into a quick and fertalizing manure. » Ifthen, reader, you pause here a moment upon this fact,and then cast. your eye backward over the principles we have en- deavored to impress on your memory, you will perceive that there is not, among all | the classes and kinds of manure which we bave shown you, one which may not be added, or-as is the phrase, composted, with not thought it worth while to go into this subject further, and give you directions for | lime or salt, or other matters whjch might be used. I have given you the most com- mon, and those well known and at hand. | ciples of forming composts, is to give them that little attention which will enable you | to understand them. And the rest must | be left to your practical .common. sense,,| without some share of which; farming, like | everything else;-would be vanity and vex- ation of spirit. . peat, meadow-mud, swamp-muck, pond- mud, or by. whatever other name -these great stdrehouses of vegetable matter are | called. These are the true sources of a- | biindant manure, to all whose stock of cat- tle;ét¢., is too small to give manure enough | for the farmer’s use. | “Tt is the farmer’s business to make a choice (ifthe has any but Hobson’s,) of what substance or mixture of substances hé williuse.. We have shown him how small a portion of animal matter, one to | ten of pure mould, will impregnate that | substance. Taking, then, a cord of this | swamp muck, we shall find it contains in | roufid numbers, about one thousand pounds | of real dry vegetable mould. So that the | carcass of an animal weighing one hundred | pounds, evenly and well mixed up with a | cord: of-fresh dug muck, will make'a cord of marfare, containing all the elements, aud their amount too, of a cord of dung. “But it is not from the carcasses of ani- mals that the farmer expects to derive the quickening salts for his muck. This can be $e, woyroe of that power only to the butchers, (what fat lands they all have D or to the dwellers near thé sea, where fish | is plenty., A barrel of ale-wives, it is said, | fertilizesa Wagon-load ofloam. The car- | cagtaf a horse eonyerts and fertilizes five or six cords of. swamp muck. A cord of elgar stable dung changes two cards; of this same, muck into a. manure as rich and durable‘as Stable. manure itself. These are al)the resuks, reader,‘of actual prac- tice. The explanation of the principle has orly’eéme*in siftce the practice, and show- ed the how and the why of this’action.

So, we are told, was the fact. And chars he sho spald write the Citizen of the World, the Deserted Village, and the Vicar of Wake- field, exhaustéd his nerves, in. to be kind-hearted and pleasant in his writings; so that, when he fell back inte real iife, he had no materials left with which to be agreeable, Be this as it may, it is not unfrequently the case, that he who can appear kind and’ pleasant with his pen, and-wher abroad, is nevertheless grow- ing sour and crabbed in his study.— Hence it has sometimes been said of a student, “He-is at times the.most agree~ able of men.” It will require no small exertion, on your part, to become master of yourself. He that is masterof his own spirit, is a hero indeed. Nothing grows faster by, indulgence, than the habit of speaking to a companion hastily : it soon becomes so fixed that it lasts through life. In order to avoid it, cultivate manliness of character. Be frank and open-hearted. Not merely appear so, but really. be so.— There is an openness, a nobleness of'xoul, about some men, which is quickly discov- ered, and as highly valved. e know that there is originally, a difference in men. Some seem to be born small, close, mis- anthropic, and their whole contour is'on a contracted scale. But there is no rea- son why they should yield to this consti- tutional trait, and become more and more: so.

But it is still] much more unusual to see such a mind unbiased in its actings. God has given this soundness of mind but to few.; and a very small number of those few esca the bias of some predilection, perhaps habitually operating ; and none, at all. times, are weieres free. I once saw this subject forcibly illustrated. A watch-maker told me that a gentleman had put an-exquisite watch into his hands, that went irregularly. It was as perfect a piece of work as was ever made. He took it to pieces, and put it together again, twenty times. No manner of defect was to. be discovered ; and yetthe watch went intolerably. At last it struck him, that possibly the balance-wheel might have been near a: magnet.: on applying a nee- die to it; he found: his suspicions true: here. was. ali the mischief: The steel works in the other parts of the watch had the watch went.as-well'as’ possible’ With anew wheel: If'the soundest mind ‘be act irregulaly,” ; As te Judging. of your own character, do net forget, that every. man is. almest | Sure to over-rate his:own importance.— Our friends flatter us, and our-own hearts still more, Our faults:are not seen, or, if seen, passed over, or softened down, by both of these parties.

Another thing | on examination, you find the’ motives of then, judging correctly, if you estimate | your character by their judgment? Ma- ny of our virtues are ofa doubtful nature, and we-are in danger of placing all such on the credit side of the ledger. An. officer: in-our army, of high charac- ter and promise, told me that he once sat down to. weigh the principle of entire ab- stinence frem ardent spirit, and to decide whether it:was his duty, in-his circumstan- ces, toadopt it. He took a large shtet of | Paper, and began by setting down, in reg; ular order,-all the reasons why the: prin- ciple of entire abstinence ought not to pre- vail. The list: was somewhat long and imposing:, He felt pretty sure that he might.safely take. that side of. the ques- tion. But to make it perfectly sure, he began to set down, on another page, the arguments on the other side. They soon began to grow-and ‘grow, till he was as- tonished at their number and weight.— They quickly out-numbered their oppo- | nents ; and it did not at first: strike his-at- ' tention, that he had several put down a- gainst entire abstinence which belonged to the other -side. These were shifted ‘and altered, till, at last, - with one dash of | thé pen, he blotted out the few that. re- mained ; and, though hé has now forgot- \ ten the' steps of the process, yet, from that hour to this, he has never had a doubt on ‘the question.

GENERAL BERTRAND. ‘ [From our Correspondent.] Monravusan, (Tarn and Garonne,) 14th February, 1844. Early life of General Bertrand.— His military successes.—Goes to the island of E ba uth Napolean.—Rare example of fidelity’ in 1813.— Madam Bertrand.— Residence in the island of St. Helena.—Return of General Bertrand to France.— Last events of his life. —P ion.in the Chamber of ‘Deputies relatwe lo this illus'rious man. General Bertrand hax been dead some weeks, and I hasten to send you a brief notice of this celebrated companion of Na- poleon. His name must be well known in the United States. All the journals have mentioned the noble hospitality with which Bertrand was lately received in your republic. This homage of a free and generous nation rejo‘ced the heart of the old mah; and France herself is grate- ful for it. A peculiar distinction is reserved to Bertrand among the great men of our age. O'hers havee acquired a more brilliant military glory than his own. He never oecupied the first rank in the list of Na- poleon’s lieutenants. Nor has he exten- ded the bounds of science ; and if he had been merely a general, history would havdly have mentioned his name in pas- sng. Buthe has shown a quality, rare atall times, and especially in our day: fidelity in mi:fortune. This is his true ti- tle tothe attention of posterity ; this will rescue his name from oblivion. So long as the memory of Napoleon shall las*, an honorable remembrance will be accorded to his most devoted companion in misfor- tune. It is this also which has induced: me to speak of him to you in this corres- pondence. Religious men should do jus+ tice to virtuous characters, wherever found. _ Henry Bertrand was born at Chateau- | roux, asmall town inthe centre of France in 1771 or 1772; I know not precisely the date of his birth. He belonged to an _obseure but very respectable family. His first studies were directed to the military profession, Hi@ proposed entering the corps of civil engineers, and the com- mencementof his career was m-~ked by distinguished success. While youug Ber- trand applied all the force of his mind to mathematies, the French revolution was going on triumphantly. It was impessi- ble to remain shut up inthe study. Ber- trand was enrolled in the National Guard of Paris. He felt that his first duty was te defend the laws of his country; and the 10th of August, 1792, when a furious populace attacked Louis XVI. in the pal- ace of the Thuilleries, he volunteered his humble services in behalf of the unfortu- nate monarch. . By this generous act he showed already that he would not aban- don his master in the day of adversity. King Louis XVI. yielded to the popu- lar tempest, and Bertrand went to the frontiers to fight for national independence. He was them in the lowest ranks of the aimy, In Egypt he first dréw the atten- tion of Bonaparte. Upon the ancient soil of the Pharaohs, in view of the pyramids which wondered to see the children ‘of the> West, Bertrand performed prédigies of’ Valor, and, rose rapidly to the rank of géneral. When the French, subdued tie unhealthiness of the climate more than by the arms of the Mussulmans, had ta.quit the banks of the Nile, the young seneral returned to Europe, where.new wars awaited him. He contributed to gain the great battle of Ansterlitz ; and poleen, in reward for his. milttary .ex- oits, admitted him to the numbenof; his -e-camp.. From that time, the.desti- ~of Bertrand. was fixed; he devoted himselftentirely to the service of Napele- OF and he resolved to follow him peat A Where; to obey hirn atways; in vila’ We ain gbod report: ‘de Do} ‘it would be too long to accémpainy’Ge: | Hudson Lowe hiniself, the jailor and pergeei. | si tt Bertrand in his warlike ‘ca ; this . wate - eo eed only with respect of : e. ody by $3.03 fctate the principal tienen | Orme Becran ax atime | Mian re ook F eee Ga Rae >} emperor resented the and: wrath-of | i¢ bi eg part in the campaigns of Russia and advocsarion y: whenprers he: ndesietite shitt'an! eer Bene Nac cting sometimes as, commar | Gon theiwicight of-hinaliversiey; Buxydnd poat- eT ed Lo pei ae ook the “ATTN he edo upon hi : othe Hie 0 yepair. as. much: as. possil aed eal ip to: soothe” his® rind. a of our military services..He} Aincient: teins vl esbecageece foot by foot, the soil of the coun} which stwvebte,eottiokinige ahd} | Stirgton Cine of Mog?

Napoleon. was vanquished i ee must abdicate t the marshals, the generals whom ,he had loaded with wealth ard honors, hastened to abandon their unfortunate master.— They-went. to hail -servilely ‘King Louis XII, _the new stin who rose above the horizon. Some even, the better to make their court to the Bourbons, were not a- shamed to load with gross insults the de- throned captain whom just before. the: had vise upon, But General Bertrand, —Bertrand, incapable of such base treach- ery—staid at Fontainbleau, when Napo- leon bade adieu to his old soldiers, and accompanied him to the island of Elba: happy and proud to follow the hero in ex- ile, as he had been to enter with him into all the capitals of Europe. In the month of March 1815, when the Emperor engaged once more in the terri- ble trial of battle. Bertrand returned with ‘him, always stationed in his advanced guard. If he had been taken by the troops of Louis XVIIJ. he would certainly have been condemned to death, under the ac- cusation of being a French traitor and re- bel. But no matter. Bertrand did not consider his personal dangers; he knew, nothing, he saw nothing but the glory,and the greatness of Napoleon. On the 20th March, the whole population of Paris re- ceived with enthusiastic acclamations the conqueror of Marengo, and the faithful Bertrand resumed his post as grand mar- shal of the palace. Alas! these days of triumph were short. All Etirope took up arms against Napo- leon, and the battle of Waterloo dashed towards bis greatest enemies, forever the gréatest captain of modern times from the throne which he had gain- ed by hissword. Then it was put to the severest test. In going. to the island of Elba, he had yet some hope of return: but in going to the tsland of St. Helena, he had none. All was over; the fortune of Napoleon was irrecoverably lost. The island of Elba was but a few leagues from the coast of France; the exiles could al- most see the shores of their courtry ; but St. Helena was several thousand leagues from their native soil. In the island of Elba, Napoleon was still sovereign ; he had a palace, a little court, some soldiers; but at St. Helena he had nothing ; he was a poor prisoner, confided to an English guard, and subjected to all the caprices of these cruel jailers. What motives to in- duce General Bertrand to separate his lot from that of Napoleon ! This is not all. Bertrrnd was the fa- ther of a family ; he had a wife, two sons | and a daughter. Shall he consent to lead thém to a remote country, a sickly climate without resources for their education 1_— Further: he must leave in France a mo- ther; an aged, infirm mother, whom he | should never see again in this-world |— Lastly ; he exposed himself to all the ha- tred of the old Bourbons, by accompany- ing Napoleon; and indeed. would you be- lieve it ?, he was condemned to death the 71h of May, 1816, at Paris, as.guilty—and of what? of having generously shared the exile and privations of his unfortunate master ! No doubt General Bertrand considered all these things, before going; he fore- saw that the"land of his fathers would be perhaps closed against him forever; he must sunder with painful effort the ties which attached him to his family ; he per- ceived that his wife and children would suffer much on the desolate shores of: St. Helena. But nothing—angthing hindered his devotedness. He proved in our self- ish age that there are men capable of sa- crificing all to effect what he regarded as a conscientious duty. He would not con- sent to serve two m to erect two standards, to take two oaths of allegiance. He left in the Bellerophon with Napoleon, and remained at St. Helena until he clos- ed the eyes of the emperor. This is the proper place to sa - thing also of Mrs. Bertrand. is cour- ageous woman encouraged her husband in his resolution, and for six long years never belied for a moment the noble, cha- racter she showed at the first. The coun- tess'' Bertrand ‘was the daughter of" the brave Géneral Dillon, who had perished on the scaffold in 1794, while eonfending’ against the tyranny of Robespierre.. She had been brought up in all the delicacies of high’ rank. “But when she came to St. Helena, shé found in her heart strength to bear all the privations of emi yand de- voted herself to the education ofjher chil- dren.

He had performed his duty to the last. King Louis XVII annulled the sentence of which had been against bim; for all’France, the whole civilized world would’ hay®@ been indi and horror-struck, if cap- ital punish had been indicted on this exiled no- ble. Bertrand lived quietly on the small estate which he had inherited from his fathers. Far from having become rich, he was impoverished during his military career. He brought .back with him only the arms of Napoleon : the dec- orations which had shone on _the breast of the emperor at the time of his great victories,—the sword before which all the kings of continental Europe had bowed their heads in awe. Na- poleon had confided these arms to the most loy- al of his servants, and how could he have more worthily recompensed his fidelity ? After the revolution, of 1830, General Ber- trand left his retreat. He was appointed mem- ber of the Chamber of Deputies, It could not be expected that the old soldier would bea great political orator ; but he brought to the legisla’ tive halls that firmness of purpose, that honest of feeling, and that integrity of character whic had done honor to his whole life. A curious trait of his parliamentary life, is that, after the example of Cato, who repeated constantly— Delenda est Carthago, General Bertrand ended invariably each of his addresses with these words, Entire freedom of the press! The French, who laugh at every thing. made epi- grams gpon this ‘stereot phrase of Ber- trand’s ; but there was ondoubtedly, something to inspire respect in the perseverance with — he insisted upon having a press entirely ree, After some years, he returned to his retreat, and probably wou!d never have lefi it, if the French Government had not asked of England to restore to France the mortal remains of Naw leon. When this national act was know?d, ertrand, aged then nearly 70 years, left his quiet home, came to Paris, and said: “I will go again to St. Helena; I will go to find the ashes of the emperor where I myself deposited them.” The proposal was applauded by all France. What more worthy hands, indeed, than those of General Bertrand, to go and open the tomb of Napoleon. Who better deserved than him to bring back to France the remains of the warrior whom he had served in adversity ? Bertrand set sail in the beginning of 1840, and by the blessing of God, was able, in spite of his age, to go to St. Helena, and to return with the ashes of Napoleon. .When the funer- al train traversed the rivers and roads of France, the people who flocked from all parts saw with deep emotion Bertrand near. the tomb, and hail- ed with the same acclamations the remains of their emperor and the illustrious old man, a model of tidelity, _ In the great ceremony which took place at Paris, Bertrand walked first, and no one could dispute with him this place which he had so well earned. He shed tears of grief and joy at once, while accompanying the body of his master to the tomb of the Invalides, where it reposes under the protection of the French people. Afierwards, Bertrand made a visit to Amer- ica; the occasion was as follows. Having gone to Martinique, in 1837,0n private business, he. so gainefl the affections of the negroes of his ope that, on taking leave, they begged im with tears toreturn. The General, touch- ed with their expressions of attachment, proin- ised to do so. For several years he could not keep his word, because he must go to St. Hele- na. But in 1842 he prepared to go. In vain his friends represented to him that his age, his infirmities, his recent fatigues, freed him from | greater advant captivating Charpnd ot the widow M.” Her cheeks bore the and tenderness with sembling arrows that only awaited a sEav, (pardon the pin.) to do fullexecution.

Why were not all men bor with fortunes? It would be delightful to have nothing to do. To live in fine houses, wear beautiful clothes, drink costly wine, eat rich food— and all without exertion. It would be fine indeed to-thave no cares, no doubts, no anxieties, no pains no mortifica- tions—to be entirely at our ease, fearing no trouble and anticipating no.joy. Such an existence would be like a still pool of water, so walled about that not a breeze could ruffle its surface ; but ic would not be life. . It would be a dream, a mist, a figure, a shadow—not man. The nian who complains of his Jot, it matter#not, how hard that lot may be, has filmy eyes, which cannot eee. Obstacles are thrown in our way that we may overcome them ; sorrows are heapened upon us that we may rise above them ; evil passions are given us that we con- quer them. Some waste their lives in fruitless ings at what they consider their own hard fate, and in effvying the brighter fortuneg.of others. All such deserve to be miserable. They are no true men. Others are bold, determined, unyielding. ‘The stronger the adverse cur rent, the more energy do they put forth to stemit. These conquer at last, and there is self satisfaction in such a con- quest. It is indeed noble to enjoy that fortune earned by honest indultry, to wear those laurels, which one’s own hands haye plucked, but to hang happiness or misery, on an accident, is cowardly, unmanly. He who is born rich may be lucky, but his luck is no evidence of greatness. M. M. Noah. Rerormev Crows.—A late Illinois paper furnishes the following piece of droljlery.

The ratification of the treaty of annexation, now before the Senate, will inevitably, in m opinion, involve us ia a war with Mexico, in all probability, in a war with England, and Every well wisher to the prosperity of our country would consider a war with the two latter powers, or either of them, as a national calamity ; but in waging it, in the event supposed, no breach of treaties, no viola- tion of the laws of nations, could be justly charged against us: while, in the contest wi Mexico, our national honor would be tarnished if not destroyed by the infraction of solemn treaty stipulations...

At the last Court of Mecklenburg coun- ty (Va.,) a meeting was called to take in- to consideration the Texas question. Af- ter the meeting was organized, a locofoco rose and delivered a most violent speech | in favor of immediate annexation, replied to by three good Whigs in cgi ly speeches in opposition. A motion ; then made to postpone the question unit after the presidential election, and carried by a large majority! The correspondent of the Pet. Intelligencer says never were men more completely used up than on this occasion. A similar meeting was lately held in Pittsborough, Chatham county, in this State, and as soon as the Chairman and Secretaries had taken their places, it was announced to be purely a meeting of those friendly to annexation, thereby cutting off all reply to the erroneous statements of the Texas speech-makers. After this announcement, we are informed the great body of the people present withdrew from the Court-House, leaving not more than a “bakers dozen” to compose the meeting. Resolutions advocating the annexation were adopted—sent to the Standard, and paraded in that paper as a mass meeting of the good people of old Chatham. Chancellor Kent on the Impeachment of John Tyler. The following letter, (says the N. Y. Courier and Enquirer) from the venerable Chancellor Kent, was kindly written in re- ply to a note of inquiry from one of the Editors of this paper. It was not intend- ed for publication, though the author's consent has since been obtained. Though brief, it is very emphatic, and speaks vol- umes in behalf of Popular Rights against Executive Usurpation, Coming as it does from the very highest authority, it must earry with it great weight und strengthen the conviction almost universally enter- tained of the propriety and duty of pro- ceeding Py impeachment against the act- ing President : “* New York, 26 Union Square, May 21, 1844. ™ Dear Sir :—I acknowledge your favor of yesterday, and take the liberty, to refer you to Story’s Commentaries en the Constitution’ of the United States, vol. 2d, from page 252 to p. 273, or § 783 to § 804, for all the authen- tie informatien and authority that may be wanting. You will perceive that the impeachment Power over “ high erimes and misdemeanors” is very broad, as defined and practised under the sanction of the Common Law, by which it is to be construed and governed. I think there gan be no doubt that the enormous abuses and stretch of power by President Ty!er, afford ample materials for the exercise of the power of Impeachment, and an imperative duty in the House of Representatives to put it in practice. Yours, respectfully, JAMES KENT. “Mr. J. H. Raymon.” In connection it may not be improper to refer to a private letter from a valued friend and an able and influential member of the House of Representatives, in which he says that, though there is no general understanding among the members on the subject, “the opinion that Mr. Tyler is impeachable both for abuse of official pa- tronage, and for his misconduct in the mat- ter of annexation, is very nearly universal tm both parties.” He adds, “a large por- tion of the Whigs believe the attempt to impeach a bury, but I think the majority ofthe party at present inclined against the measure, upon the ground that the Texan party in both Houses, and the coun- try at large, would confound the merits of the questions of impeachment and annexa- fon, The following letter from Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN to Mr. Evtswoata, Chairman of the Committee, announcing hus acceptance of his nomination for the Vice Presidency, reached us in the papers by Tuesday's mail.

Dear Six: I have duly received your favor informing me of my nomination to the office of Vice President of the United States by the Whig Convention of Delegates, at Baltimore on the Ist. instant. To be thus distinguish- ed by such a body of exalted and patriotic Whigs is an honor that I most sensibly feel. In accepting it I can saly promise the best efforts, in some humble measure, 0 justify the high confidence reposed in me. And I tust in the goodness of a Divine Providence so to guide my steps that I may not disappoint the expectations of my friends or do harm to the interests of our country. With great regard, dear sir, your friend and obedient servant, THEO. FRELINGHUYSEN. We are waiting with great anxiety to hear from the foco Convention —Charlotte Journal.

We have omitted for several weeks to notice the late publication of school books by the gentlemen whose names head this article. Having favored us with copies of them, we have had an opportunity of ‘xamining them, and feel no hesitation in tecommending them to the use of Teach- £8 of schools, and pupils. They embrace Ist, 2nd and 3rd reading books,—the 4th volume being a very neat Natural History of beasts, birds, fishes, &c., &c. Reader No. 1, is a book of very easy lessons, beau- tifully adapted as an introduction to the ut of reading. No. 2 is a grade higher ; tnd No. 3 rises a little higher than No, 2; tad thus the pupil is prepared for the Na- ‘ural History and other books. The matter of which these books are ‘omposed, is interesting and instructive ; ‘ad well calculated, not only to facilitate the Progress and expand the mind of the pil, but to improve the h:art, and soften ¢ ‘Manners and temper.

Others think that the channel will be into the Missouri shore, and that the freshet may be beneficial to St. Louis. There were some appearances of fair weather at the last accounts. 4, The Alexandria (La.) Gazette, of the 18th ult. brings: intelligence of the most disastrous overflow of the Red- river. The whole town and surrounding country of Alexandria were under water, which swefit away build- ings and devastated plantations, making a wreck of all that opposed its progress. One life was lost only—the sufferer, Maj. Duress. The loss to the planting interest is estimated at not less than a million aud a half of dol- lars! The De Soto, a steamboat, ran agroand in a corn- field, the pilot having miséed the bed of the river. EX-SPEAKER WHITE. The Kentucky “Commonwealth” has thought it proper to vindicate the reputa- tion of the Hon. Joun Wurre, of Kentucky, as a person of the most gentlemanly and amiable character. No such vindication can be necessary where Mr. Wuire is known and appreciated as he deserves to be; but, as the false gloss attempted to be given by his political adversaries to a re- cent occurrence in the House of Repre- sentatives may possibly have some effect where he is not known, we think it due to Mr. Wurre to transfer the following re- marks to our columns, with the expression of our entire concurrence, both in the spir- it and the letter of those which refer to Mr. Wurrr’s personal character and quali- ties :— National Intelligencer. From the Kentucky Commonwealth. Joux Waitrt.—The Loco press are endeavoring to transform this gentleman into a bully. We know John White intimately, and we can most conscientiously de- clare that in the characteristics of a well-bred gentleman —in politeness, suavity, forbearance, prudence, good feel- ing, and genuine amiability, all the qualities that make up the character we both respect and love, he is unsur- passed by any mertal man. He is peculiarly distinguish- ed in Kentucky for coolness oi themper and respectful- nes3 of bearing. But, like every true Kentuckian, he would be as prompt to resent affront as slow to offer ir. We certainly regret, as he has himself publicly regretted, the late occurrence in Congress. But what could the meekest man on earth do, when struck in the face, but return the blow? Had he not repelled his assailant, while, as a Christian we should have applauded his meek forbearance, there is not a woman in the land who would not have whipped him with her garters. In eleven sessions of service, through the most exciting periods, Mr. White, though a most decided and firm man, has never had before the slightest collision with any one ; but has made himself a yreat personal favorite with all gentlemen of both parties. The miserable vipers of Ken- tucky cannot blur his name. From the Baltimore American Whig. DISGRACEFUL FACTS. In the speech of Mr. Wethered, of this State, delivered upon the Tariff, on the 24th ult. in the United States House of Representatives, we find the following facts ; “ Sir, in framing this bill the committee (in- stead of sending for the farmers, the manufac- turers, and the mechanics of our own country, tolearn from them its practical effects upon their various interests) PREFERRED WRITING TO THE BRITISH IMPORTER, THE BRITISH AGENT AND THE BRITISH MANUFACTURER ; AND HAVE EVEN APPENDED TO THEIR REPORT A TABLE FUR- NISHED BY A MANUFACTURER OF MANCHESTER, [Enc anp.] showing the rates of duties of sev- eral articles made by him!!! If this is not “going down t8 Egypt for strength,” I wou'd like to know what would be.” We ask the reader, if his heart throbs with love of country—if he be a friend to America, whether native or adopted, if the facts here dis- closed are not disgraceful to this people? Do they not prove, that those recreant American Congressmen, who, while styling themselves Democrats, the friends of the people, could seek aid frem British Importers, British Agents and British Manufac’urers to enable them to rob the indus'rious of this land of the fruits of their labor, are lost to every impulse of honor, or of pa'riotism ? It is our desire nct to appeal to the passions of men ; but to awaken their judgments, by ad- dressing their reason. The bill to destroy the Tariff, we thank Providence is quieted for this Congress, at least ; but when we find represen- tatives of the American people, drawing infor- mation from Englishmen, to enable them the more effectually to ruin the industrious classes of this country, we have a right to question their patriotism, and to call upon the honest and true of heart, to reflect seriously upon the motives of men, who could thus unblushingly degrade themselves in the eyes of the nation—who could thus unworthily stoop to acts so marked by treachery—-so alien to all that is honorable in action; generous in design or American in feel- ing. To little purpose, indeed, did Washington and his compatriots, struggle through the privations and perils of the Revolution, if after sixty-one years ot Independence, the law-givers of the present day are to be permitted with impunity, to resort to England, to derive their information to qualify them to make laws for this great pco ple. But why resort to England, our jealous rival now; our former orpressor? Are they suspicious of the integrity of their own coun- trymen? It would seem sv. Are men who thus insult—who question the honesty of Amer- icans, and who manifest so shameless a prefer- ence for the interests of the people of another country, worthy of the continued confidence of this nation? Every sense of propriety—every consideration of public and private virtue—ev- ery feeling of national pride, shuuld teach us that they are not ; for public servants, who co- ALESCE WITH AN ANTAGONIST PEOPLE, TO BREAK DOWN THE SOURCES OF HOME INDUSTRY, AND PROSTRATE THE PROSPERITY OF THIS COUNTRY, are worthy only to be looked upon with scorn and contempt. We beseech the honest and country-Joving masses of the inisnamed Democratic party, to pause and reflect upon this evidence of their leaders’ unworthiness. We call] upon them, by all that they hold dear, to abandon a cause, whose champions have demonstrated it, by their mean subserviency to British interests, to be fatal to the welfare of this people. — An mg in the West.—A young Yan- kee eicalane wanting to know what plan he should take to make an opening for himself in the West, was told to take the plan of an axe, and go into the woods where he could make an opening in any direction! If he wants to go to Oregon, he can find an opening already through the great “South Pass.” When he gets there and wants to know, “ where is the Far West an r™ he can inquire of the he'meets, p beepers Tus Massussirri—The St» Louis’ Reporter of 20th pe place of Mr. of annexa- stew side Martin of sentiment on this Texas question ae r, Polk or Dallass; and consequently they are left free to think and speak what rng oe. Tt cannot but be obvious that Mr. Van Buren has been treated unfairly and unki which they failed to do, and the General is not in the habit of quietly submitting to a state of things that are not in accordance with his despotic will, nor does he of- ten forget an enemy or desert a friend, nor will he fail to detect in this acting and doing of the Convention, some- thing of the malign influence of Mr. Calhoun in counter- acting the intrigue and management of Mr. Van Buren, who had secured a majority of the Conventional votes in his favor ; but was jockey upon a contrivance of his own at a previous time, to wit: the Convention adopted a rule, that no one should be considered as nominated without a vote of two-thirds of the whole delegation in his favor, and so this rule vetoed Van Buren. So that the Calhoun wing of the harmonious Democracy, having long since adopted the motto of “ rule or ruin,” were in- eidentally enabled to accomplish the tale end of their motto, and have done it ; done it effectually ! We hope we don’t intrude when we express an opin- ion, that the Honorable Silas Wright, now Seqesie bens N. York, showed some judgment and good sense in re- jecting the nomination for Vice President, in connection with Mr. Polk, as he is much superior to him in all points that constitute a gentleman and a politician in genius, intelligence and powers of reflection, and therefore to be- come the secondary of Ex-governor Polk would derogate from the dignity and standing of Mr. Wright. We do not intend, however, by this comparison to diminish the character of Governor Polk ; of his private character we are ignorant and shall say nothing without authentic in- formation ; but shall speak with freedom of his public character and add it up in a few words. He was two or three times elected a member of Congress in Tennessee, once speaker of the House of Representatives, a place to which he added but little dignity, and commanded but small respect. He was afterwards elected Governor of Tennessee, and was again twice beaten for that office, when at both trials he exercised his utmost patronage and energy to accomplish his desired object, while using the patronage and influence of both Gen. Jackson and Mar- tin Van Buren as far as they were available in his favor, the sober second thought and the deliberate third thought of his constituents the people of Tennessee being still against him, he was compelled to remove to the “ State of Retiracy,” where he remained obscure from August 1843 to 30th May, 1844, when brought forth as the der- nier and desperate alternative of the Democratic Conven- tion, illuminated by the brightness of their variegated countenance, and shone upon by the fitful light imme- diately precedent to what obscuration concerning Mr. Dallas our memory is quite oblivious ; we have some faint idea that he was sent to Russia once by Gencral Jackson, as Diplomatic Minister, and that he came back again ; but whether he acted the Lion or the Monkey while there we do not recollect ; we suppose, however, that he received outfit, salary and infit, and was there- with content, as he should have been with his proper share of the public plunder not less than $22,500. The Indian’s indignant question may well be demanded from both these candidates: ‘‘ White-man, how much more land you want to steal!” Varying the terms a little we would say, Democratic candidates, how much more plun- der will satisfy you? name your sum and we as an inte- gral part of the people will give our vote that it shall be paid out of any money in the treasury not otherwise hereafter appropriated, rather than give the Jacksonising power of plundering ad le bitum to feed both yourselves and the thousands of Horse Leeches to be brought in by you to revel in plunder and spoils. Z. Mr. Cray reached Lexington on Saturday night, about 11 o’clock, in fine health and spir- its. - He was enthusiastically received by thou- Sands, welcomed home by Ex-Chief Justice Robertson, and escorted to Ashland by the blaze of hundreds of torch-lights. He attempted to escape the pageant, but the people forestalled him. They drew him out of the stage at the suburbs, and compelled him to receive their formal greetings through Judge Robertson, and to hear their spontaneous cheers. He replied, good humoredly, that he was very happy to see them—happy to see every one of them—but there was a fine old lady in the neighborhood he would rather see than any body else ; and, begging them to allow him to hasten to Ashland, bade them good night. But they conducted him safety thither, amidst joyous acclamations, and left him to the repose he so much desired. Returning to the city, a crowd had collected around the door of the Phoenix Hotel, and were addressed by the unwearied old patriot, Gov- ernor Metcalfe. Afier he had spoken about halt an hour, Gen. Combs and Dr. Cross were successively called for, and responded in brief and animating speeches.—Nat. Int. of 27th ul- timo. The Tariff in Pennsylvania.—The Mi- ner’s Journal of Saturday says: “ When the news of the defeat of Mr. McKay’sBritish Tariff Bill reached Eck- ert & Guilford’s Furnace, near Pinegrove, the hands employed at the Works, imme- diately loaded a Cannon, which they had cast for celebrating the 4th of July, and other National Jubilees, with Schulkill county Powder—and used a ‘copy of this infamous bill for waddiug, and thus scat- tered it to the four winds of Heaven. The working men in every section of the coun- try are beginning to get their eyes opened to the true state of affairs, and judging from the recent events, they seem to un- derstand the ¢rue interests of the country much better than those members of Con- gress, who receive their eight dollars a day out of the United States Treasury, and advocate, by their votes, the interests of Great Britain. We give below the words which produced the challenge between John Randolph and Henry Clay, in 1825. They were uttered in secret session, and we do not know how they ever got into the newspapers : “ This man—(mankind I crave your pardon) —this worm—(little animals forgive the insult) —was spit outef the womb of meanness—was raised to a higtier life than born to, for he was raised to the society of b Some fortune—kind to him—cr@] to us—has tossed him to the Secretaryship of eae “Contempt has the property of descending, but OMB stone far short of him.

States Vice Commercial Agent for Lahaina, Island of Maui, an appointment which, it is.said, connot fail to be highly satisfactory to American ship- masters and the native authorities at that port.—N. Y. Jour. Com. CUBA. The New York Express contains a copy of ;the decla- ration of one of the i concerned in the late insarrectionary movement in the islands of Cuba. All the free negroes and mulattoes, it appears, were privy to the revolt ; and if the discovery had been delayed a few days longer, nothing, it is stated, could have prevented a most horrid massacre. The whole plan of operations is revealed in the declaration of the conspirator, who was interpreter among the negroes and mulattoes, and was induced to become an accomplice in the plot by the pro- mise of $10,000 and the rank of Brigadier. The Pro- visional King was to have been Mr. Turwsutt, the English Consul, now residing in Jamaica, who, it is stated, has $270,000 to cover the expense of arms, am- munition, and expenses of agents in the cause. The whole Island was to rise at the same hour, midnight.— The blacks in the vicinity of Cardenas were to set fire to the buildings, murder the whites, take their arms, and proceed at once to the shore near Cardenas, where they would find six thousand stand of arms, and ammunition, landed from an English brig, which was to have come from New Province, and fall upon Matanzas with about 30,000 men, where they would join their principal chief. The Memphis Appeal, a Locofoco paper, complains bitterly, that, although there are many Whigs in that vi- cinity in favor of the annexation of Texas, they all, without even a solitary exception, go for Mr. Clay for the Presidency. It certainly must be vastly distressing to the Locofocos, that those Whigs who chance to think annexation expedient, will not, on that account, give up all the great measures and principles to which they have hitherto devoted their political lives —Louis. Journal. mercial Advertiser of Saturday afternoon says: “ Money continues quite abundant, and loans and dis- counts are readily effected at 5 per cent. Some trans- actions have been made at still lower rates, and the pros- pect is favorable for an easy state of the market during the coming summer.” THE TELEGRAPH AT BALTIMORE. From “ The Sun” of the 23th ultimo. Tue TeLecrarn.—During the session of the National Democratic Convention yesterday, an experiment was tried in the transmission of a message from Odd Fellows’ Hall to Washington, and an answer returned. The mes- sage was taken on f>ot by a gentleman from the Hall to the depot in Pratt street, sent to Washington by the Tel- egraph, and an answer returned from a gentleman in the Capitol, and borne back to Odd Fellows’ Hall, in Gay street, all in the space of 11 minutes. Such are the wonders of science in the present age. FRIDAY MORNINGS MAIL. We have but little news by this morn- ing’s mail. Captain Tyler has accepted his nomination for the Presidency. He seems to think that it is all important to the annexation of Texas, that he be re-e- lected, and that he has no desire for office, for office sake. The National Intelligencer speaking of Mr. Tyler’s acceptance says: “ To our inexpressible surprise, we find in last eve- ning’s Madisonian a Letter from Mr. Ty er, addressed to a Committee of the Baltimore Tyler Convention, ac- cepting the nomination as a candidate for the Presiden- cy at the coming election, couched in terms more unbe- coming his position than even the acceptance itself. It is difficult to believe that the President is serious in this acceptance, or im the extraordinary expressions with which he accompanies it. But there is his letter, in the Government paper, and endorsed by its Editor. Its au- thenticity being therefore unquestionable, we think it ne- cessary, for the information of our readers, to transfer the whole publication to our columns, in which it appears to-day. For Mr. Tyter’s own sake, we are sorry that he has been persuaded to take this step, which, in the presump- tion that he is in earnest, can only redound to his own mortification and humiliation. Not that his being a can- didate will not detract from the already almost invisible chances of the regular “ Democratic” candidate. On the contrary, we should not be at all surprised if he out- strips him in the contest, though only to be doubly dis- tanced himself.” EXECUTIVE COUNCIL. This body was summoned to attend His Excellency, Governor Morehead, on Saturday last, to advise with him in the appointment of a Superior Court Judge, vice Hon. F. Nash, but with their usual punctuality, a quorum was not in attend- ance, and the Council adjourned yester- day, for want of it. Mr. Caméron, of Fayetteville, Dr. Watson, of Chatham, and Mr. Fitts, of Warren were the only members in attendance. _Is it not strange that men, enjoying public trusts, will so neglect the duties which they involve ? Quere ? Could not Mr. Holmes have called by Raleigh, on his way from the Baltimore Convention ? The great length of the proceedings of the Democratic Convention, which we publish this week, compels us to make only a brief’ state- ment in relation to the Tyler Convention which assembled at the same time and place, avowed. ly to nominate the Captain, in which they very naturally succeeded without any difficulty.. A committee of five was appointed to inform Mr. . Tyler of his nomination. The proceedings show no appointment of a candidate for the Vice Presidency.

If she be not one of | those hill fairies, she had been dead as a | herring; but I believe the bullet glanced | off her yellow hair as against a buckler.” “Tt was the act of a gallows-rogue to fire | upon the creature, fairy or not fairy ; and | you deserve the weight of this hand—the | hand of an Englishman—you brute, for 'your cruelty.” And up rose the speaker | to put his threat into execution, when the other retreated some distance, and began 'to load his musket ; but the Englishman gripe and trip, laid him upén the hard | ground with a force that drove the breath | out of his body, and left him stunned, and | almostinsensiblee * * * * | The fallen ruffiian now rose somewhat | humbled, and sullenly sat down among | stood, without any effort to follow her, | tyrdom was come. gazing through the smoke towards: the | | he smote the high priest’s servant, and ran upon him, and, with a Cumberland | “As thou didst re- prove Simon Peter in the garden, when saidst, ‘The cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?’ so now, O my Redeemer, do thou pardon me, thy. frail and erring follower, and enable me to drink his cup’ With these words, the old man knelt down unbidden, and, after one solemn look to heaven, closed his eyes and folded his hands across his breast. ~ His wife now came forward, and knelt down beside the old man. “Let us die together, Samuel ; but, oh ! what willbe- come of our dear Lilias?” ‘God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb,” said her hus- band, opening not his eyes, but taking her hand into his: “Sarah, be not afraid.”— “O Samuel, I remember, at this moment, these words of Jesus, which you this mor- ning read— Forgive them, Father; they know not what they do?” “ We are all sinners together,” said Samuel, with a loud voice; “we two old gray-headed people, on our knees, and about to die, both forgive you all, as we hope ourselves to be forgiven. We are ready: be mer- | the rest. “ Why,” quoth Allan Sleigh, ‘ I | wager you a week’s pay, you don’t ven- |ture fifty yards, without your musket, | down yonder shingle, where the fairy dis- | ed, the half-drunken fellow rushed on to- | wards the head of the glen, and was heard crashing away through the shrubs. Ina | few minutes he returned, declaring, with | an oath, that he had seen her at the mouth of a cave, where no human foot could 'reach, standing with her hair all on fire, | and an angry countenance ; and that he had tumbled backwards into the burn, and been nearly drowned. “ Drowned!” cried | Allan Sleigh. “ Ay, drown; why not? A hundred yards down that bit glen, the | | pools are as black as pitch, and the water | roars like thunder: you English son of a deer-stealer?” ‘Why | not? beeause, who was ever drowned, that was born to be hanged?” And that jest caused universal laughter, as it is al- | | ways sure to do, often as it may be refiea- | ted, in a company of ruffians ; such is felt | to be its perfect trath and unanswerable | simplicity. | After an hour's quarrelling, and gibing, |and mutiny, this disorderly band of sol- diers proceeded on their way down into the head of Yarrow, and there saw, in the solitude, the house of Samuel Grieve.— Thither they proceeded to get some re- freshment, and ripe fer any outrage that | any occasion might suggest. The old /man and his wife, hearing a tumult, of _many voices and many feet, came out, and were immediately saluted with many op- probrious epithets. fled of any small articles of wearing ap- parel; and Samuel, without emotion, set before them whatever provisions he had _—butter, cheese, bread and milk—and hoped they would not be too hard upon } | old people, who were desirous of dying, | as they had lived, in peace. Thankful | were they both, in their parental hearts, | that their little Lilias was among the hills; | and the old man trusted, that if she re- | turned before the soldiers were gone, she | would see, from some distance, their mus- | kets on the green before the door, and | hide herself among the brakens. | The soldiers dévoured their repast with _many oaths, and much hideous and. eb- ‘scene language, which it was sore against | the old man’s soul to hearin his own hut; | but-he said nothing, for that would have | been wilfully to sacrifice his life. At last, ordered..him | to- return | thanks. in words impious and full of blas~ phemy ; which Samuel. calmly réfused.to do, beseeehing them at the same time, for the sake of their own souls not. so.to of- fend their great and bountiful Preserver. “Confound. the old..canting- Covenantér.; won't say grace !” and the blood trick down the old man’s chéek, from -a slig wound on his forehead...» - The of it seemed al 4 Nay - at ear ‘ue that suited sweet Lilias well > for dormant.t s.in.the tiger heart 5 i Beaters | appeared ;” and, the wager being accept- | drowned! why not, | ae : = ’ | face, instinct with fear, love, hepe, and The hut was soon ri- I will prick.him with. my. bayonet, if he to. awaken the | pies and ciful, and do not mangle us, Sarah, be not afraid.” It seemed that an angel was sent down | from heaven to save the lives of these two | old gray-headed folk. With hair floating in sunny light, and seemingly wreathed with flowers of heavenly. azure ;- with white arms extended in their beauty, and motion gentle and gliding as the -sun- shine when acloud isrolled away—-came on, over the meadow before the hut, the same yreen-robed creature, that had star- tled the soldiers with her singing in the | minor; and, crying loudly, but still sweet- ily, “God sent me hither to save their | lives,” she fell down beside them as they knelt together ; and then, lifting up her i head from the turf, fixed her Deantiful | the spirit of prayer, upon the eyes of the , men about to shed that innocent blood. | They all stood -heart-stricken ; and the | executioners flung down their muskets |upon the green sward. “God bless you, | kind, good soldiers, for this!” exclaimed | the child, now weeping and sobbing with | joy. “ Ay, ay, you will be happy to-night, | when you lie down to sleep.

Shame | and remorse, for their cruelty, smote them to the core; and.theye bade them that were still kneeling, to rise up and go their ways: then, forming themselves into reg- ular order, one gave the word of command and, marching off, they soon disappeared. | The old man, his wife, and little Lilias, continued for some time en their kneesin ut ; the child between them, and a with- ered hand of each laid upon his beautiful and its fearless head.—[{ Wison.

Not many years ago a Polish lady of Ple- | bian birth, but of exceeding beauty and accomplishments, won the affections of a young nobleman, who, having her con- sent, solicited her from her father and was refused. We may easily imagine the astonishment of the nobleman. “ Am I not,” said he, “ of sufficient rank to aspire to your daughter’s hand ?” “ You are undoubtedly of the best blood of Poland.” * And my fortune and reputation, are. they not sufficient,” “Your estate is magnificent and your conduet is irreproachable.” “Thenhaving your daughter's consent | how could [ expect a refusal 1” | child, and her happines is the chief. con- |cern of my life.

The poor negro wo- man who found Mungo Park perishing under the palm trees of Africa, and who led him to their hat, and supplied him with food, and lulled him to sleep with their simple songs, were gen- erally polite. They addressed jn language of kindness and sympathy ;. they led him tenderly. to their home, and did a]] in their power to-re- vive his drooping spirit. A poor drover was driving his beeves to mar- ket on a winter’s day. The cattle met a lady in the path, and apparently unconscious of- the impoliteness, compelled the lady to turn one side into the snow. “Madan,” said the dro- vet, apologising for the rudeness of his herd, “if the cattle knew as mach as Ido, you should not walk in the snow.” .That-driver was, in the best sense of fhe term, a gentleman, while many a young man, in Washington sirect, or Rroadway, with glove and cane, and graceful step, is a brute.

In various "parts of the State the charge soon found al} man- ner of exaggeration. In some places it was ysserted not only ‘that the duty had been impo. sed, buf that tea and coffee were rising in price on-account of it! < *sBeing one of those whose political death was to be sealed, I of course desired to be heard in my dwndéfence before final sentence was pro. fernéed upon me.

This brings me to the last thing in my me - ment, which is, that on a direct vote to Strike tea.and coffee out of the bill and make them free articles, Gov. Polk voted against striking tea eet, or, in other words, voted for taxing m. The quéstion on Mr, Hantington’s motion to strike out tea and coffee and make them) free articles was taken in the Committee of the Whole andearried. On the 2ist of February, 1833, the question was taken in the House con- ing-in the amendment of the y of the Whole House, first on striking out coffee. On this the vote stands for striking out 117 ; against striking out 57. inst making coffee free, stands the name of James K. Pork !— [See journal,p. 390.} Next, the question was taken on’striking out teas, and there were for striking out 108, and against striking out 57.— Among the names against striking out, and of course. making them free, stands the name of Jamus K.:Porx! [See journal, p. 391.] I havo now gone through with statements as made on the floor of Congress, for which I have been threatened with Gov. Polk’s vengeance, and I_have by the journal, and by his reports and speeches in Congress, proved every word Isaid. And-does he deny any one of these facts? No! He dare not, for he knows they are true, and that the proof is here! What does he do? He tries to escape by misleading the public mind—by making false issues and leading off on questions wholly unconnected with the points in controversy when the yaunt- ing threat of meeting me at Phillippi was made. Gov. Polk, during my absence tor Washing- ton, came into this district, and assailed me be- fore my constituents on the tea and coffee ques- tion, What he did say on the subject of course I can only learn from others. But I well know the grounds on which his friends were assail- ing me all over the district on my return home. It was, that when Gov, Polk voted for a duty on tea and coffee, that there then existed a higher duty on these articles than the one hte voted for, and that the effect of his vote was to reduce the aoe. duty on them. This was the ground which I learned he had. taken in his.speech at this place and elséwhere through the district. I found my friends, many of them, actually -nn- easy lest I might be mistaken. And I found my enemies chuckling and rejoicing at the hope prostrating me. One Democrat was offer- ing the bet largely on the existence of the fact that there was a duty on tea and coffee, and that Goy. Polk’s vote was to reduce that duty— basing his offer to bet on his confidence in the | statement of Gov. Polk. And I here state the | fact, that all with whom I conversed, Whigs in defence of myself and friends, I refer tom speech on the general tariff bill, which has been eimenlated aniong my constitutents, - It is only y | and Democrats, (and I conversed with many, who professed to know what Gov. Polk did say, gave me the same version of it. I told them | now necessary 1o.natice the points so far as the controversy between Gov.

The reason of this it is not now necessary-to explain, as it is iytione in the speech to which I have-refer- d¢> Add to this; Gov. Polk, Care Johnson, Rearly thc entire Tennessee delegation, had for. and sustained.a duty on tea ‘the same amount of that proposed et the extra session.

He says: - * Permit me to temark, before I adduce the testimony saw the great tem ip the feee, that, the sort fates of import duly would yield to the Treacy excess of six millions 6f dollar#amnually over what, " be required in subsequent years to meet albthe neoemary | and peat ef expenditures of the Government. >The Pre- Deeers errr ernie re oese statementsin my speech is, that at | that he would not so state jn my presence, and if he did I would fasten the proofon him.

At Trenton, af. ter I had declined speaking, I handed this report’ to Gov. Jones, who read it on him and dared him to controvert it. And what do you think he said inteply? He exclaimed, “J see my competitor has new documents!” And when again dared to answer or contradict the fact, he replied ;— “ F will not show my hand!” and added, “ I will reserve that for Phillippi! And so he + c fact #3 charged and proved by Gov. Jones. To all this the people of Gibson county will bear testimony. ; Now; if Gove Polk had not been conscious that, in his speeches at this place and at Pulas- ki and elsewhere, he had sought to.mislead pub- lic opinion as to the facts of tho ease, why. did he hesitate to give a direct and frank response toa plein auastiqn of fact. ia which he.was.so deeply interested? Why this trick—tbis eva- sion—this concealment? I submit to every candid man of sense if his conduct did not be- tray a consciousness of having imposed a fraud on the public mind, and an apprehension of im- mediate detection and exposure ? The ex-Goyernor, on reaching this place, having had time to.get a little over the shock produced by reading this report on him at Tren- ton, and finding he could keep up a deception no longér, resolved ‘to pean ledge the corn,’ and actually read trom the.report the fact, that at the time he joined in reporting a bill inclu- ding a tax on tea and coflee, these articles were wholly free of duty!” Why did he not read this when he made a speech in this plate be. fore? ~ Why did he not read it when he made his speeches at Lynnville, Pulaski, Dresdon, Paris? Ah, it was because he knew no one was present to read it for him! But the mask has now fallen from him, and he stands expos- ed in his naked deformity. I desire one thing here borne in mind, that all I have heretofore said is in print, and-had been before the pablic for months. fore this spoken from the stump: of this contro- isthe people will remember that in my speech at the Whig barbecue at this place I never alluded to it. It seemed to me improper that a stump controversy should exist between two not running for the same office, especially as his range was all.over the State and_minc was confined to a district, If I was worthy of his notice at allit should have been on paper, I had with entire frankness showed “my hand,” and referred to the very pages of the documents which prove my statements. Why then this concealment on the part ef Gov. Polk? Was he not as much bound to speak out the truth and the whole truth to the people of Gibson and other counties through which he passed as to the people of this county 7? Ah, hasit come to this, that politics is to be regardedas a game of cards, where each blacking has a right:to con- céal his hand and practice all manner of trick and deception ! But Gov. Polk, finding himself at last caught has resorted to excuses for his votes. In this, also, hé is: uvfortunate. In attempting to ex- cuse his direct vote against striking out tea and coffee, as charged’ against him by Mr, Brown, | the duty on these articles, imposed by former acts, remained unrepealed ; and that the effect | ef his vote was not to put on but to reduce the duties thety existing on these articles,” I hold in my hand the Nasliville. Union, which contains his Gilcs county speech on this subject. His exposition of this question seems to be designedly obscure; yet the speech taken the same impression which he seems to have made at this place and elsewhere.in this dis- trict... In.proof of this I will read from the specch:itself. In answer te mé he says: “ If Mr. Brown: had pursued his remarks a little fusther back -he would have found that be | (Gov. P.} had voted to-make tea and ddffee free articles.” He would have found farther, that | the rates of duty on these articles, by the. sev. | eral tariff acts of 1816, 1824, and 1828, had ‘and so expressly declared’to be: in speech which he (Gov. P.) had ‘made on that occasion. “As a bill-of compromise it reduced the duties to the rates. of the act of 1816, and on tea aud coffee’ but ene-fifth of the rates: of Here is a statement of the Yates of duty om tea and coffce under the acts of 1816, °24, and a ~ altogether is:evidently framed ‘so as to make | coffee, he says the bill was a compromise bill and hie was bound to vote against all amend- ments. Inthe defence made for him in‘ the Nasliville Union, 29th November, 1842, it is said the friends of the bill were bound to ‘ vote against every alteration of it as reported.” ‘This extéuse is ana aie be and not sustained by facts. First, Gov. Polk did not vote against all amendments.

There is no withstanding the array of-facts, which he brings to bear ypon the question un- der discussion.

The numbet of those who are now ready to vote for the treaty as it is, is said to be eigh. teen. Others are doubting, one doubtful. There is a majority of the Senate in opposition to all the main arguments urged against the annexa- tion of Texas, viz :—the extension of territory and the extension of slavery.” This is but an echo of a thousand voices, all concurring in ascribing an overwhelming effect to this Speech. We.continue our quotations.in order to give | an example of that want of common, every day | sensé which peculiarly distinguishes Mr. Cal- houn : tion of two to one: a) the ratio of increase is about the same in the pew slave States.

They do not wish to lie down vol- untarily and ask that @foot be put upon their necks, We never hear of any of the Texas orators touching upon these facts. What is the reason they do not dilate on them? Are they afraid “Hence it is, that Mr. Calhoun: in his_pri- vate intercourse. with, Senators, lays so much stress upon the postponement of action on the | treaty until he shall receive advices from Mex- | ico. Mr. Calhoun has strongly expresed his | conviction that his advices will be favorable. | He is so sanguine as to believe that Mexico | will, at twelve hour’s‘nottce, agree to sell her i “Fexas and the -vast territory claiméd by Texas ‘andthe Californias besides.” The man who really entertains such an opin- ion as the one here ascribed to Mr. Calhoun, seems to us‘fitter for a lunatic Asylum, than for the office of Secretary of State. One thing at least is certain; that he is totally unacquainted with Spanish History,and Spanish Character. The tenacity with which Spain held on to the Low Countries for seventy years is most.assur- edly a point in History of whieh he has noknowl. | edge. He might however have known some. | thing of her obstinate refusal to recognise the Independence ofthe South American Republics. Mexico is the true child of Old Spain ; retains all her prejudices, and is equally conspicuous for a degree of obstinacy amounting almost to bru- tality : Mr. McDuffie understands the Mexican char- acter better. The same letter writer says: “This may be so, and we shall see how the chances of a renewal of domestic strife, in Mexico, may affécther course. But I must say that public rumor in this city ascribes to Sena- tor McDuffie a very different opinion, Mr, Mc- Duffie does not believe that Mexico will notice, in any friendly manner, our propositions. The first impfessions made on the public mind in | Mexico, as to the treaty, appear to be adverse fo | it. Mr. J. P. Kennedy says.that Mexico will treat it as a flagrant outrage.

Srrancz.—A letter is written in England, by a citizen of the United States, apprizing the Secretary of State that the Government of Great Britain is pursuing measures deemed hostile to the interests of this country. .. This letter is made the ground work of official cor- respondence of grave import—its information is credited and acted on by our Government— and yet, when this letter and the name of the writer are called for by the Senate, the Secre- tary of State gravely returns for answer, that no such letter is to be found in his Department, and that he presumes it to be amongst - the pri- vate papers of his predecessor, and of course inaccessible to the Senate. Nor can the name of the writer be ascertained.. Now it strikes us that this is an extraordinary procedure. If the letter was of a purely private,,character, there should have been no reference to it; but as it was made the basis of complaint against a foreign Government, it should have been filed as a public record, to be forthcoming when re- quired. The name of the writer of. the letter } shouldbe made known to the Senate, that, if necessary, he might be examined ing the sources of the information which he communi- cated ; and, as the Secretary of State sses ignorance, perhaps the President could give the information, as it is not te be presumed that he would authorise complaints to be made against a Government upon the assertions of a letter the writer of which was unknown to him. Let the Senate try the President, as it is of some importance that the whole matter shall be made known.—-Baltimore Clipper. A great foot race took place over the.

Extract from Governor McDuffe’s Message of December. 1336, to the Legislature of South Carolina. “ While South Carolina is indignantly repells ing all foreign attempts to violate the sanctuary | and endanger the existence of her domestic in- stitutions, it becomes her in a peculiar manner to abstain from every sort of interference ‘with the domestic concerns or domestic controversies of all other States, foreign or confederate. The doctrine of non-interference is one of the. mest important in the code of international law,and there are no communities on earth who should hold it so sacred as the slave-holding States of this Union. If, by their example im giving countenance to the unlawful enterprisesot their own citizens against a neighboring and neutral Power, they should weaken the influence of that principle among nations, they would commit an offence against their own institutions by impair- ing the sanctity of their surest guaranty agginst fureign intrusion. “ Entertaining these opinions, I have looked with very deep concern, not unmjngled with re- gret, upon the occurrences which have taken place during the present year; in various f of the United States, relative to the civikawar which is still in progress between the ré of Mexico and one of her revolted provinces, It is true that no country can be responsible.for | the sympathies of its citizens: but Ta am never- theless utterly at a loss'to perceive what title eilher of the parties tothis-contraversy canhave As_ the procession . moved. through the streets the crowd of spectators increased. |.

But he this as it may, when they become citizens of Mexico, they become subject to the constitution and laws of that country ; and whatever changes the Mexican people may have since made in that constitution and those laws they are matters with which foreign States ean have no concern, and of which they have no right to take cognizance. I trust, therefore, that the State of South Carolina will give no countenance, direct or indirect, open or conceal- ed, to any acts which may compromit the neu- trality of the United States or bring into ques- tion their plighted faith.

The singular result of all these laugha- ble doings of the democracy in Baltimore, will be the election of Henry Clay, by a larger majority than, ever was received by Jackson or Harrison. With Polk and Tyler in the field to divide the democracy, who, were they rolled into one person, would hardly make a man, Mr. Clay must bending, in our intercourse with other States, should be paramount to all the considerations of mere expediency, even were it possible that these could be separated. But they cannot.— Justice is the highest expediency, and I am sure that South Carolina is the last State in the Un. ion that would kno ly violate this sacred canon of political morality. “If any consideration could add to the in- trinsic weight of these high inducements to ab- stain from every species of interference with the domestic affairs of a neighboring and friend- ly ce it would bé the tremendous retribution to which we are so peculiarly exposed on our south-western frontier, from measures of retal- jation.

WOowmRPut Our owiloire According to previous notice, a number of the citizens of Salisbury assembled in the court-house on the 11th instant, for the purpose of making arrangements to cele- brate the next anniversary of American Independence. The meeting was organized by calling Mosrs L. Brown, Esq. to the Chair, and requesting Obadiah Woodson to act as Becretary. The Chairman made a few remarks explanatory of the object of the meeting, after which the following Preamble.and resolutions were passed. Whereas, The American People should with grati- tude always remember the 4th day of July as the anni- versary of their Nation’s birth—of their Country’s Indes. pendence ;—-and whereas we believe the principles pro- mulgated by our patriotic forefathers on that day cannot too frequently be recurred to,—therefore, . Resolved, That we celebrate the approaching anni- versary of our Independence without distinction of party. Resolved, That Joun W. Ex.is, Esq., be requested to deliver an Oration on that day. Resolved, That Joun B. Lorp, Esq., be requested to | read the Declaration of Independence. Resolved, That a dinti@F be furnished on the occasion, at the Cool Spring at Mr..Macay’s pond) and that the soldiers of the Revolution in Rowan be. inyited to par- take of the same, and join us in the celebration. Resolved, That Capt. George M. Weant be appoint- ed Marshal, and Obadiah Woodson Assistant-Marshal. Resolved, That John Utaman, Esq. be appainted Pre- sident, and Col. Daniel Thomas and William H. Smith Vice_Presidents. Resolved, That Messrs. Mace C. Pendleton, William J. Plummer, Moses L. Brown, Jacob Lefler, Samuel W. James, Simpson B. Wilson, and Archibald Henderson act as a Committee of Arrangements. Resolved, That Messrs. Alex. P..Alsabrook, John H. Hardie, C. B. Wheeler. John L. Henderson, Wm. 8. Macay, Edward Rowlett, Dr. Samuel H. Williams, and James L. Cowan, be appointed a Committee to prepare Toasts —arid that they be requested to avoid in their toasta the party polities of the. day. Resolved, That. Messrs. Wade W.. Hampton; Aaron Woelworth, Jacob Lefler and James Taylor be int - eda Committee to inform Mr. Etus apd Mr. D of Resolved, That the services of the Salisbury Band be procured for the occasion. : ‘That the procession form at the Courthonse in Salisbary, at 9.o'clock, A.

They had a race almost every day for 10 or 15 days,—thrice running the same horses, and so managing the. thing that only one party and_ the rider for the other knew which horse. would beat. The sorrel horse beat the black in the first and testing race whieh they ran together; 20 or 25 feet: But strange to tell; the black beat the sorrel very shortly after about 35 or 40 feet. ‘ Another race was ‘made up on these two horses for last Saturday : The black, it is said to have been arranged, was to Win the race. The vVillanous fi- der of the sorrel had been villanously bribed to let the black run out ahead.— But the plot having been discovered in time, by a gentleman soepoteny interested, he promised the rider the lynching in case he didnt ride fairly, and thus, asit will be seen, reversed the tables. The riders mounted—the horses were led up.to the stand, and the word “go” given : Off they flew, the black getting two or three lengths the start, butthe sorrel gath- ering on him rapidly: Here they come, neck and neck! The next instant they passed the stand—the sorrel about 3 feet ahead ! utterly astonishing the black arty, who had staked their piles nothing douby. ing. What could it mean! Had the ras- cally rider himself turned jockey, and stak- ed his bribe money against his bribers ? Could it be possible !....Before the confusion had subsided, the rider of the sorrel gave some consolation to the night workers on the other side, by exhibiting a broken bri- dle rein, which he said gave way-in the race, and consequently robbed hix his power over the sorrel. So it was, the fas- test horse won the prize in spite of rider and bribes, FRIDAY MORNING'S MAIL. THE TREATY REJECTED. By the last Washington papers, we are informed that on the 8th the Senate came annexation, and refused to ratify the same, by the following vote; YEAS.—Meéessrs. Atcheson, Bagby, Breese, Buchanan, Colquitt, Fulton, Haywood, Hender- son, Huger, Lewis, McDuffie, Semple, Sevier, Sturgeon, Walker, and Woodbury—16. NAYS—Messrs. Allen, Archer, Atherton, Barrow, Bates, Bayard, Benton, Berrien,Choate, Ciayton, Crittenden, Dayton, Evans, Fairfield, Foster, Francis, Hunti Jarnagan, Johan. son, M. Merrick, Miller, Morehead, Niles, Pearce, lps, Porter, Rives, Simmons, Tall- — Tappan, Upham, White, Woodbridge, and Wright—35. We congratulate the country upon this result. And_réjoice to see that the Senate has been found composed of men saffi- ciently independent and regardful of their country’s honor, as to save the Nation from ,the foul stain which the,adoption of this infamous treaty would without doubt fix upon it. The Treaty has shared the fate which it so richly. deserved—and all we hope, who have been instrumental in its negotiation may reap a due reward. By reference to the vote, it will be seen that but one Whig, Mr. Hexwerson, of Treaty, we find'the naines of Messrs, Ax- Tartax, and Wmepr: Every Senator; with Sha ixception of | Mr. Haxneoas, Of Indiana, was in his place, and voted.

I | doubt not the citizens of Mecklenburg will be proud of | him, asa son of her soil—and I know that the American People, when they discover in him the ability necessary, and the long public service required to entitle him to heir support, will not be disposed to withhold from him any thing that may be due—notwithstanding the tergiv- ersation of his grand-father. - But, Sir: 1 cannot bear so see the hard-won laurels of Col.

JUSTITIA. The Democrat who undertook to scrape up electioneering capital for Mr. Pox, by ignorantly pointing to his ancestry, and exclaiming—* Revolutionary services ""— “Prime movers in the Mecklenburg De- claration !” &c., &c., was about as keen as the electioneering chap out West, who, having called in at a cabin after dark, got to kissing and praising the farmer’s little’uns, which, when a light was brought in, turned out to be little negroes! In the latter case, however, no one else was in- jured by the blunder but the blunderer him- thorn of their glory! Why didnt he search the records! It is too bad! That Democrat ought to be— “Rode upon a rail!” So far from Ex-Governor Polk being a descendant from a Revolutionary Whig, itis matter of regret that he is the descen- dant of a Revolutionary Tory.

And who were they who at this very hour hold seats here direétly in the teeth of law? Who had carried outthose doctrines of nullification longa it continued to’ wave. Mr. Henry Hub- bard was:another Démioerat’and Dorrite of the very first water; yet“he had voted-to send del-" egates tothe Hartford«Convention. Another very distinguished gentleman in the Demoerat- ic: ranks, and now, lie” believed, a ‘prominiefit mémber of Congress—one* Charles Jared In- gersoll—had declared that;had lie been’ capa- ‘ble of reflection in the days of thé Revolution, he would have been a ‘Tory. ° ‘That gentleman was' most courteous in his deportmént, ahd had always treated Mr. P. with the atmost personal kindness’ He meant him no offence or injury ; and if the assertion he” had how made ‘fs ‘his was incorrect, he (Mr. P.) wouldinstantly take it back. The gentleman was’ present, and’ could deny it if it was untrue. © [Mr. I. retained his seat.] “Mr. P. next quoted a very fiery ar- tice indeed, from the pen of J: H. Prentiss, a Van Buren member of Congress... This gen. tleman declared it gave him infinite pleasure to which South Carolina had only threatened, and openly trampled the Constitution under foot 7— The Democratic party. Look at one of the first acts of this Congress, immediately after its organization ; the Journal of the House, the bade of its proceedings, had been deliberately mutilated, by order of a De- mocratic ‘majority. The Whigs had entered their solemn protest against the right of the nul- lifying recusants to seats in this House, arid pla- ced that protest on the Journal: but wherc was it? Ithad by force been stricken from its place, and was no more to be found there. Yet you talk about Caligulas ! Mr. P. then referred to the proceedings of the Senate of Tennessee. The Whigs in that State had a majority of votes on joint ballot, and Sena- tors of the United States for that State had al- ways been thus elected. But'a set Of men now | | immortalized there and elsewhere as “ the glo- rious thirteen,” after having twice so voted, (fer Felix'Grundy,) as soon as it was found that there'was a majority for Whig Senators, sud- denly declared that mode of electing Senators to be unconstitational ; and so great were their qualms of conscience, that when the vote was to be taken, they stubbornly retained their seats, and thereby prevented the election, and kept their State unrepresented in one branch of the National Legislature. One of that company of men was now a Representative on this floor; he would not charge him as forsworn, and as | an open violator of the Constitution, but he | would say it was a little remarkable that his | | conscience should have been so very serene whr 1 he voted for Mr. Grundy, and suddenly - | } These, Mr. P. said, were some of the fen- deacies of the Democratic party. A gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Duncan) had made.a speech | not long since, in’ which he represented the | Whigs round about the city of Cincinnati as a set of swindlers, cut-throats, and traitors; and had observed that it was the native tendency of Whiggery to lead to corruption, anarchy, and | despotism. Mr. P. had therefore presented a | little specimen of the tendencies of this (not | Jeffersonian—no—but this) modern, this latter- day, this Joe Smith Democracy—this barn- | burning Democracy—this Dorrite Democracy, | Which held that the people had a right to act in masses against law and Constitution both. | These “immortal thirteen” in Tennessee had | | nullified the action of their own legislative bo. | | dy. Here was one of the tendencies of this | | sort of Democracy. As to the democracy of * Governor Dorr,’ | the whole history was one of the most infamous | affairs that ever disgraced the annals of our | country... His party claimed the rightin their | unorganized mass, as a great magazine of all power, to change laws and. overturn»constitu- tions at will ; and when offered the very things they desired, scorned to receive them through either Legislature or Convention. ‘There was no perceptible difference as to the latitude of suffrage, or any other Democratic right, be- tween the Constitution they attempted to frame and that agreed to in a lawful assembly, yet they would not take it, because it came’ from the hands of the constituted authorities. Yet the Democratic party were ready to back them, and did yote them countenance and aid in. pro- ceedings more anarchical than any in the days of Danton, Marat, or Robespierre. As to the charge of Federalism which had been brought against the’ Whigs, who, he ask- ed, were they who were in favor of giving to the President’ the xing! power of destroying the legislation ofboth Houses of Congress at his’ mere: will and pleasure? Was it the Whigs? - Mr. Clay was against this power : ‘he held that that ought tobe the law of the land ‘which the People’s Representativés in both branches of the Legislature declared should be the law; but,the*Democrats par ex- | | and allowing him to cut the heads: off of as many legislative acts as migbt suit his own no- fions or selfish purposes.> Of these .two class- | es of persons, which were the federalists and | which were the Republicans ? : ‘But to quit principles, and go a little into the | refer the gentleman to the Hon.

Then came William Cullen Bryant, the author of a poetical eulogy (of no very flatter. ing kind, as it seemed) on Thomas Jeffergon. fate. P. quoted from this poem, a sort of mock eroic. } Now, then, he would again inquire, where was Federalism to be found? He thought he had placed it on the right side of the party di- viding line. [Mr. Ingersoll here asking the loan of the book from which the above quotations had been made, Mr. P. replied: “Take good care of it, and d& not derangé the contents; it is an ex- cellent magazine of Whig ammunition, and I mean to draw on it for some missiles, I hope to hurl at the polk stalks of Tennessee.”’] And now as to this farce of a nomination at Baltimore. A distinguished gentleman from New York so denominated it publicly, and with- out the slightest reserve ; declaring openly that it ought to meet with no respect from the coun. try, and that James K. Polk could not get one electoral college, unless that of South Carolina, and that would depend upon the mere whim and caprice of Mr. Calhoun. This annunciation produced very great sen- sation in the House.] . Mr. Stetson of New York, inquired of Mr. P. who the N, York member referred to was ? Mr. Peyton replied, that for the name of the gentleman, and all the circumstances, he would South Carolina. He would tell him who he was. Mr. Stetson repeated his inquiry, observing that the statement had taken him completely by surprise. Mr. Peyton replied, it was a member on this floor, a distinguished member of the House, a great friend to Mr. V. Buren, and, in fact, con- That gen- tleman had declared that Mr. Polk could not get the vote of one electoral college, unless in If the gentle- man would apply to the -honorable gentleman from South Carolina, he ceuld get all the infor- mation he desired. Mr. P. was about proceeding in his speech; when Mr, Stetson again interposed, (Mr. P. not yielding the floor,) and said that, as Mr. P. was the only one who had referred to the member from the New York delegation, it was to him alone he ought to apply for his name. Mr. Peyton said he would not be thus inter- rupted : there was a point where courtesy ceas- ed to be a virtue. A majority of the members of the Jate con- vention went to Baltimore instructed and pledged to vote for Mr. Yan Buren: and the Globe, before the convention assembled, charged who- ever should do otherwise with treachery. And what was the result?) A. majority did vote for Mr. Van Buren; but.of this most democratic | of Democracies a simple majority was not | enough. Troe, Thomas Jefferson thought it ought to-rule, and held the maxim true, ror pop- uli vor Dei, from which there was noappeal but to arms, which he held to be.the appeal of. ty- rants. But these Democrats were not content with Jeffersonian Democracy. A bare majori- ity was not enough for them; they must have two thirds. A-gentleman here had said, that with the Texas feeling in his fayor, their can- didaté’ would Ft the votes of a eee of the people of the U. States A majority! Suppose he did, that would notdo. According to’ Balti- more doctrine, he must have two-thirds to elect him. He ‘hoped gemdenien would carry out their own principles.” The nomination of James K, Polk would fall on the ears of the People of this country like a thinder-clap in a very clear day. No; that was too’ + tod térrific, a figuré’: it would then strike them like the phc- nomenon in the ancient proverb.

Henry Clay. Aud when another crisis arose in our affairs—a crisis which shook the govern. ment of the country to its centre, which caused the good man and the pafriot to turn pale, and made Jefferson himself declare that it struck up- on his spirit like an alarm bell in the dead hour of night, who was it that came to the resctie, threw himself into the breach, and saved bis conntry? Henry Clay. And then in that oth: er critical and trying hour, when the flag of dis- union was raised in South Carolina, and the laws of the Union were resisted at the caninon’s mouth, while we had in the chair of state a man of iron nerve and lion heart who swore by the Eternal that the laws should be executed, and that if one gun was fired by South Carolina “he would hang Calhoun and McDuffie, and Hayne and Hamilton, and the other leaders of the re- bellion, as high as* Haman,” who was it* that came again as our delive rer, with a heart deep. ly. penetrated by thecrisis of his country’s fate, and casting on the issue all he held dear in life, once more, by his prudence, moderation, and skill, assuaged the angry elements, and resctied this fair land from the horrors of civil discard? It was Henry Clay. When the hour of danger came, there was he; and wherever he came, danger was quelled, disorder fled, and” public prosperity smiled apon ber restorer.

Bat the noisiest men are not the greatest men. | He.is greatest who seizes. truth with the great-" est rapidity, proclaims it with the greatést pow. er, and acts it with greatest. edergy and pra. dence. - Judging by. this criterion, Mr, F. is a great mah. Greatness, however, does not al. ways obtain the readiest ers. Truth is one, error is legion. M fine things may be said on a subject to excite the'admiration of the ' crowd which are not true or not to thé point; and which the gréat man would ‘therefore re- | jeet at the risk of being charged with frigidity and tameness.—Hence the complaints made by superficial critics, of tameness and want of in- terest in some of Mr. Webster’s most profound discourses.

Mr. F may sometimes displease the same crities for the same cause. hen, he has expressed, in chaste’ and classic language, all that is trae on the matter in hand ; when-he has’ enforced, it upon the attention by all legitimate considera- tions; heis done. _ He will not go around a sub- ; ject and about it, fighting windmills and raising phantoms.—He neglects every thing irrelevant. In fine, rapid comprehension, correct judg- ment, and hg ean co the strongest char- atteristics and best criteria of greatness, are eminently the characteristics of ore Fre- His mind pierces a matter with inconéeivabie rapidity. _ His judgments on sub- | jects most imvolved and intricate seem al- most intuitive. The New Jersey bar know something of this! The rapidity and correct- ness with which he would master the details and seize the strong points of the knottiest causes, | when engaged in-the practice of his profession, ever» excited the admiration of his associates. Akin to thisis the sagacity with which be pene- trates into the motives & characters of those who approach him.- Few can so cover their real designs s.to escape his scrutiny. In the ar- gument of legal questions the same traits were manifested. It was impossible for him to rest in the hac verba of particular cases ; he would plant himself on those fundamental principles of jurigprudence on which all the cases were principles, perhaps, whose operation of the minds of courta and juries bad been im- perceptible tothemselves, and never been set in | strong relief before ; but which were no sooner enunciated than acknowledged. From these il. lustrations the character of Mr. F.’s mind is de- duced. It is strikingly rapid, correctiand com- | pretensive. In these particulars] think I have | never known his equal. Mr. F.’s public efforts, however, will not be entirely. understood without reference to anotb- er charaeteristic. He has an instinctive ab- horrence at making a display; at shining in berrow ed plumes, availing himselt of other men’s labors, and thus appearing to possess.en- | dowments not bis own; at appearing, in fine, in any other greater character than belongs to him -in the most unguarded moments of social intercourse.—Lcet no one, therefore, accuse him of plagiarism ‘either—in- words or thoughts. Whatever he utters is his‘own—a part of him- self. Some men will come out with produc- tions which astonish their most intimate friends; but. which carefully examined, are found to: be nothing but splertdid pieces of patch-work.

It has been od that the méastre of arinexation should be preceded by the consent of Mexico. To preserve the most friendly relations with Mexico ; to concede to her not grudgingly but freely all her rights ¥- to negotiate fairly and frankly with her as‘to the question of boundary ; to render her, i a word, the fullest and most ample recompense for a loss she might convince us she had sastained, fully accords ‘with the feeling and views the Executive has always entertained: But negotiations in advance of annexation would prove not only abortive, but might pe re- , doctrine. j of the-two countries. garded as offensive to Mexico, and insulting to exas. Mexico would not, I am persuaded, give ear for a moment to an attempt at negotia- tion in advance, except for the-w territory of Texas. © While all the world besides regards Texas &g an indeperident Power, Mexico choo- ses to look upon her as a revolted Provincg.— Nor could we negotiate with Mexico for Texas, without adinitting that our recognition of her independence was fraudulent, delusive, or void. It is only after acquiring Texas, that the ques. tion of boundary can arise between the United States and Mexico, us affording the best oppor- tunity for the most friendly a pacific arrange- ments. . The executive has dealt with Texas as a Power independent of all others, both de facto | and dejure. She was anindependent state of the | confederation of the Mexican Republic. When, | by violent revolution, Mexico declared the con- | federation at an end, Texas owed her’no lony- er allegiance, but claimed, and has maintained the right for eight years to a separate and dis- tinct position. During that periodyno army | has invaded her with a view to her reconquest, | and if she has not yet established her right to be treated as a ‘nation independent de facto | and de jure, it would be difficult to say at what | period she will attain.that condition. Nor can we by any fair or any legitimate in- terference be accused of violating any treaty stipulations. with Mexico, The treaties .with Mexico give no guarantee of any sort, and are co-existent with a similar treaty with Texas. So have we treaties with most of the nations’ of the earth which are equally as much, violated by the annexation of Te x96 to the U. States, as | would be our treaty with) Mexico. The treaty is merely commercial, and intended asthe instrument for more accurately defining. the rights and securipg the interests of the citi- zens_pf each country. What bad faith can be implied or.charged upon the government of the United States for successfully negotiating with | an independent power upon any subject not vio- lating the aflpala ions of such freaty, I confess | my inability to discern.

The government and people of the United States have never evinced, nor do they feel any-desire to interfere in public questions riot affecting the relations existing between the States of the American Continent, We. leave .the: European powers exclusive control over matters affecting their continent |- and the relations of their different States.: - The United States-claim a similar exemption from any such interference on their part. © The: Treaty with ‘Texas was negotiated fron: consid- erations of ‘a high and public policy influcncing the conduct of the two Republics, “We have treated with Texas as an ,independent .pow- er, solely with a view of bettering the condition if annexation“in any form occus, it will arise from the-free and un- fettered action of the People of the two ‘coun- tries ; and it seems altogether becoming in me + to say that the honor of that country, the digni- ty of the Ameriean name, and the permanent interests.of the United States would forbid ac- quiescence in any such interference. No one ean more highly appreciate the value of peace to both Great Britain and the United States, , and the capacity of each todo injury to the oth. er, than myself; but peace can best be preserv- | ed by maintaining firmly the rights which be- long tous as an independent community. Soman T have considered 1 to say, it becomes me only to add, that while I have regarded the Annexation to be aceom- plished by treaty as the most suitable form in which it could be effected,should’ Congress deem it proper to resort to any other expedient com- patible with the Constitution, and likely to ac- complish the abject, I stand prepared to yield my Most prompt and active co-operation. The great question is not as to the manner in which it shall be done, but whether it shall be accomplished or not. The responsibility of deciding this question is now devolved upon you. JOHN TYLER. WasuHIineoTon, June 10, 1844, In the speech of Gen. Waddy ‘Thomp- son, our late Minister to Mexico, at a din- | ner given to him, in Greenville, S. 0. a few days ago, upon the occasion of his re- turn home, he spoke of the Mexicans.as a polite, kind .warm-hearted people. He ad met with.nothing at their hands but politeness and kindness, although the cir- cumstances under whieh he first went to Mexico, had induced him to anticipate a different reception. .He should be ungrate- ful not to bear testimony to their amiable qualities, and that there.was no other for- eign people in whose prosperity and -ad- vances in the great eareer of civil liberty he felt: an..equal interest. Mexico was the first born of our revolution, and nobly and gajlantly had she struggled for the establishment of institutiens of whieh ours was the model. Her advances had: alrea- day been great, and she possessed,the el- ements of a great A a etea There was tio he would so much re- | gret to see ours involved:in.a war; every consideration of duty, policy and humani- | ty forbade it ; and he added, that although ,the Texas war had caused a good deal of exasperation against us, there wasa very strong disposition to-cultivate friendly-re- lations with us: of this she had’ given re~ | was passed by peated proofs.

We are confident Mr. Steel will reflect upon the circumstanees in which we were placed, and pardon the remarks which we made in relation to the author of the ‘“ Address.” And we take this opportunity to say, that, Mr. Stesb is neither® “-erus- ty old bachellor,” nor a “ used up widower” He is a widower, it is true, but he is in the very prime of life.

Wm. F. STEEL. From the Norfolk Beacon. RECANTATION OF THE CHA BARGAIN AND. CORRU ROM THE APRIL NO., 1844, oF THE SOUTHERN Quaneney REVIEW. At the close of a parallel befween Cal- houn and Clay, the Reviewer says: “It is very seldom that we are furnished with a finer vindication of one’s self,than can be found in the address of Mr. Clay to his constitu- ents, in reply to the famous (infamous !) charge of bribéry and corruption made against him in the Presidential contést of 1825. . We well re- member the time when, in the heat and contest ot the .battle, it seemed to us that the charge wag triumphantly sustained, and that Mr. Clay, in the eye of posterity, would be forever dis- GE OF graced. But time, and a more even temper, have produced, here, all the-results that his best friends could desire, and, frésh from the perusal of this defence, we | are ready to give him, if in- deed he now requires it, the verdict of an ac- { quittal. What is most remarkable is the truth- fulness which is gamed Oro upon every liné. It is the produétion of one who seemed to feel that he was not writing for a. day, or for those who were then around him, but for those who were to come on the stage. “It is an argument to be read and admired by those who could hear the charge, and pronounce their decision, when the subject of the discussion has laid his head upon his mound of earth, and his spirit passed from its Garthly tenement to a purer habitation.” “Stich is the magnanimous ‘amende by a former foe to Henry Clay, for only giv- ing credence to the infamous charge a- gainst him of bribery and corruption.— The apology clearly establishes the noble character of the writer, while the eloquent argument it includes would of itself have sannihilated the charge’ had. that not pre- vicualphocn effected by the “ evidence in | the cause.” What hereafter should be | thought.of those who seek to perpetuate this “infamous charge,” which they either -know.te have been disproved, or if they donot, thereby show that they are unfit condactors-of ‘a Press, whose only legiti- mate pyrpose_ is’ to enlighten the public mind as to the individzaals most worthy to be entrusted with the public affairs. 2%. THE. WHIG SPIRIT IN MISSOURI The» Whigs.of Missouri had a grand celebration at St. Louis on the 3d instant, the day of the meeting of the Young Men’s Whig Convention... The procession was | tions from various. parts of o rer Mig the counties on the and even Andrew coun- pte country. The d ion. far-distant. county of and ‘€mounted “to one hundred and” “Se ng men—who, as we-learn from the publican, “ iled from a county which at one time’ rt can wens and were received By the right hearty welcome.” Vermont Arousing —The Whigs of Yer-| wee are to pean @ mass state corenen Foco National Convention, has driven the last nail in the coffin of that party in Pennsylvania. The_spirit of 1840 is a- roused with redoubled @nthusiasm, and shouts of * down with the Tennessee Free Frader,—down with the enemy of the tariff of 1842—down with the. enemies of our dearest interests”—are ascending in thee tones from the mechanic’s shop, the*forge fire, the deep mine, and the farm field. We have no hesitation in declar- ing it as our strong and deliberate convic- tion, from all the signs, that our Presiden- tial and Gubernatorial candidates will be triumphantly elected in Pennsytvania by from.20,000 to 35,000 majority ! This, iadeed, is the opinion of candid men of all | parties here. The reapers of Locofoco- ism are trying to produce a contrary im- pression by loud and extravagant CROWING, and by a show of unanimity ; but the Pxo- PLE are not with them, an their extrava- gant boasts are only met with derision. | Set down the twenty-six votes from Penn- sylvania syre for Clay and Frelinghuysen. HOW THE WHIGS SHOULD ACT. The nomination of Governor Polk, is re- garded by the whole Whig Party as such a desperate move, that many of them, no doubt, will be disposed to think the battle already won. We are inclined to that opinion ourselves, for we know not of a single State he can carry, with the excep- tion.of South Carolina. Most assuredly, he will not be able to touch bottom in his own State. When he undertook the fall campaign of 1843, against Mr. Jones, the latter staked his election on the populari- ty of Menry Chey. “Henry Clay first, (said he) Henry lay last, Henry Clay all the time.” “The result was, after a con- test exceeding in severity any that had ever been witnessed in Tennessee, the triumphant election of the Whig candid- ate, by a most_ overwhelming majority ! | It is not doubted, that were the battle to | authority of anonymeus letters and extracts be fought over to-morrow, that majority would be increased by thousands. It is this man, utterly unable to carry his own State, that. the Foco Convention has thought fit to p as a candidate, who can probably calle majority of all the eleetoral Votes of this Union. The ab- surdity of this nomination is so apparent that we cannot refrain from laughing outright. o> We would caution our Whig friends, however, against placing teo great reli- ance in the weakness of their adversary. We gave them a hint to that, effect, yes- terday. Too great security is dangerous at all times; and though we can imagine no case in which it could be indulged with greater safety than the present, we | would yet have them to err, ifthey err at all, on the safe side. It. shoud be'a matier of pride with all true Whigs, to give Mr. Clay as large a} | majority as possible in his native State. With proper exertions, they may caleu- late upon ten thonsand:in the fall—with extra exertion it is ible even to ancy that majority ! ‘All thishaweves d | upon exertion.

He stood'up, at’ its close, to reply, very pale and nervous—thougt it was perhaps bat sickness, Several Senators had, however, already giv- en notice that-they could not consent fo any far- ther: waste: of time ‘on the matter; and Mr. Evans moved to lay the subject on the table. At. Mr. McDuffie’s earnest request, however, he waived the motion for a moment, and the South Carolina Senator made an explana- tion as to: his gubernatorial message of 1836.

We cannot repress the admiration we feel for the recent bearing of Col. Benton. The Carolina Disunionists have undermined and beaten him with their new Texas conspiracy— they have worsted him in the Presidential con- test and probably cut him off from the? succes- sion—they have obtained the lead of the party which they have only belonged to some six or seven years, while he has been its Ajax in the Senate since 1827—they have probably de- stroyed, but they cannot conquer hor cower him. He looks him as sternly in the eye as ever, and is prepared to do battle with them at any notice, no-matier at what odds; His re- Joinder to-Mr. -McDuffic on Saturday -night is represented by those who heard it as:most with- | ering. He laid bave the secret springs of pti. | vate speculation and political treachery which | have given life to the ery of Immediate Annex- ‘ation ; he showed that the men .who. fomented , this. plot were impelled by the most sordid mo- | tives, and bent on gratitying theirambition even at the cost of destroying the Union. He told them on closing that they need not exult. too confidently in their ill-got victory, for he should meet them at Philippi—that he should oppose their intrigues with voice and pén.and if need be with swordin hand, anddie defending the Union. - A murtour of applause | ran through the’ gal- leries, which could Hot be restrained.

It is passing strange that | thosé who so constantly predict the effect of every meas- are of finance, taat it will make the rich richer, and the poor poorer, that they cannot or will not see any such tendency in this Texas scheme, where it is 0 directly obvious.

There has been a great-outcry about the Federal Gov- ernment assuming State Debts ; but no such constitution- 3! outrage is discovered in assuming the debt of a Foreign | State, which very much resembles the conduct of the hyp- | ecritical Pharisees, “‘ who strain at a gnat and swallow a | There is a great and manifest injustice, iniqui- ty and oppression in enacting a Tariff alledged to be taz- | - The hour forcharging has arrived.” “ Let 5 ing the South for the benefit of the North; but-no un- fairness is discovered in taxing the wholé ‘nation for the | benefit of a foreign country, and particularly speculators, | that belong to no country.

It is true that the duties. are frequently arduous, and at all times of a responsible and delicate character ; acd, although entirely. unconscious of having at any time done any act calculated to affect the rights. or the feelings of any individual-of the body, still the, fraility of human natare is such as to dictate the propriety of throwing myself on the indulgence of the Senate rather than wy claim to an exemption from sach fraility.— owever this.may be, I cannot disguise the | satisfaction I feel in appealing to that silent monitor within, which bears witness to a deter- mined purpose to do exact justice to all as far as practicable, and, while yielding to every in- dividua! a full measure of latitude and treedom of action, to maintain what must be considered in every well regulated legislative assembly the Chair, granted, in fact, by the body itself for the preservation of its own honor and dignity. Senators, permit me to reiterate the feelings of gratitude I entertain for the unanimous ex- pression of your approval of my course, enhanc- ed in value as it is by having -been thrice re- peated ; and towards each member, permit me to avail of the occasion to say that L-entertain no other feelings than those of respect and kind- ness, and beg leave to express my most earnest wish tor the continued health and happiness of every one of you; and that on the return of each member to his home he will have the pleasure to find all there in the enjoyment of | health and happiness, and that it may long con- tinue. In the perfyrmance of my official duty I am now to pronounce the word of separation for this session by adjourning the Senate sine die. FURTHER FROM MEXICO. We learn further from Mexico, by way of New Orleans, that the Diario del Go- bierno (the Mexican Government paper) of the 14th ultimo contains an official.no- | tice in relation to the Congress which has been ordered to hold an extraordinary ses- sion on the first of the present month.— The decree of Senor pe Bocangecra, Min- ister of Foreign Relations, and which has been approved by Vatentin Canatizo, the acting President, sets forth that the time of the Congress willbe occupied on the following important points : First. 10 recdhriing th the“oath of the Pre- sident, so that he ean enter at.once upon the duties of his office. Second, In giving to, the Government the power to increase the army, and fur- nishing the necessary means. for so doing. Thard.

By the steamship Acadia, which arrived at | Boston on. Wednesday, we have London and Li- verpool dates of the 4th instant. The cotton market continued in a very de- present state, and prices had again receded.— Times says: “ Low cottons, at the pre- sent moment, are cheaper in the Liverpool:t in the American market by seven-eighths, and the better kinds by. about halfpenny.. In the mean time trade in the manufacturing districts wears a healthy appearance.” The subject of the annexation of Texas con- tinued tobe a prolific theme of discussion in the English papers. Some of them have was- ted a good deal of indignation upon it. The proposed annexation of Texas to the United States has created a great sonsation at Paris, and revived thé numerous dage-sae which were afloat during the Canada affair, of the necessity of .making.common..cause—.with the United. States, and of thus directing a pow- erful blow against the best interests of ‘Great Britain. The Emperor of.

A fellow sianding be- fore the fire turned round and said, “Why, judge, if you-mean that dry good case, it is open already !” ‘Then there was a laugh, and as the judge sat down, ano:her man asked himif he was going to keep the prisoner’s box all to himself. The deputy constable then said, “he'd be — if the court shouldn’t be kept in, order,” ordering at the same time Bill ‘Bruce to. give him a_cigar.

Some: 60--or 70. persons, .about 30 0. them on horseback, assembled—all . feeling the deepest interest, as well on account of the almost distracted state of the mo her's mind, as for the safety of the child. The company as before separated and went in different directions, all anxiously bent on finding the child if possible. Nothing was heard or seén of the lost boy, until about oneo’clock as two of the genilemen in search of the child were sitting down to rest about a mile wiihin a pocoson,— (we can’t make out the name of the po- coson,)—they fancied they heard a noise at some distance. On calling they could distinguish a human voice answering them. They kept on in the direetion of the sound, and at lengch saw the lost boy coming to- wards them, As may be supposed, they were overjoyed at being able at last to save the little fellow from so sad a fate as had threatened him, and restore him a- gain to his distressed parents. They im- mediately fired. their guns as a signal of their good fortune, to the rest of the com: pany. Nearly all that were out on the search soon aS$embled, the father of the child among the rest, and_to the number of 60 or more,went in a_ body to réstore th@ittle fellow to his almost heart-broken mother. The joy of ihe parents may be more easily imagined than described. - To the honor of the company be it said, that there was scarcely one that did not shed tears of. joy at the happy event. The child ,had-been. lost, two days and.a half and three nights...

He had. his school, bag and | book, with him when found, and daring the morning had set down in. the sun,to dry his book, which had been wet in the rain the night before.

Accordingly, the question recently came up in the House, and the members from the four Statés were admit- ted to their seats. And what, fellow cit- | izens, do you suppose was the process of reasoning by which this most extraordin- ary result was brought about? Congress you may have seen is invested with un- limited power to make regulations as to the times, places and manner of holding elections for representatives, or to alter i andi eeverned: use of R seats, and tovhold ‘and ‘occupy them, until | ahy objections which might exist against thee shold ‘be subsequently investigated. In the case of the four States already: no= ticed, it was important tothe’ inferests of | thé’démihant party; in ordér'to swell their’ majority,that the members returned should: be‘allowed to take: their. seats,-although elected’contrary to laws In the New Jer- sey ease it was importantto the dominant party to'enable it to rétainits. majority’ to’ exclude the Whig members, although: re~ turned aceording tolaw! ‘Thé déeision in’ both cases ‘was adapted. to’ the ves i of patty interest,in utter contempt, of constitution and law; and it is worthy of observation that, in the decision against the Whig-members of New. Jersey, mem- bers, who boast'of being emphatically the patronsand defenders of State rights, con-' curred in- trampling ‘under foot the laws and authorities of that State. In connexion with the subject on which I_am now addressing you the manner of admission of Michigan into ‘the Union is worthy of notice: ~ According to the usage which had_unjformly prevailed, prior ‘to the admission of the States of Michigan and Arkansas, a previous act of Congress was passéd, authorizing the sense of the people of the territory, to be taken, in con- vention, and regulating the ‘election of members to that body, limiting their choice to citizens of the United States residing in the territory. Michigan, ‘without the sanction of a. previous act of Congress, undertook, upon her sole authority, to form a Constittittion, And demanded admission into the Union. In appointing members to that convention, a great number of ali- ens, as wéll as citizens of United States, were allowed to*vote, against the earnest remonstrances of many residént citizens. Under these circumstances, she applied to Congress to be admitted into the Union. No one questioned or doubted that she was entitled to be received, whenever she presented herself, regularly and according tolaw, But it was objected against her admission, that she had assumed to act against all usage, without the authority of Congress, and that contrary to the Consti- tution and laws of the United States, she had permitted aliens to partake of thie elec- tivé franchise. The danger was pointed out, of allowing aliens unnaturalized, and without renouncing their allegiance to foreign sovereigns and potentates, to share in that great’ and inestimable privilege. But'all objections “were ‘unavailing ; the dominant party under the hope of strength- ening their interests, in spite of all irreg- ularity, and in contravention of law, ad- mitted Michigan as'a State, into the Union. In intimate ' connection ‘with this case the subject of Dorrism’ may be noticed. Rhode Island had an existing government those which might have been previously | of long duration, urider which her popu- made by the State Legislatures. There : by U ¢ | lation had lived happily and prosperously: | is nothing in the grant of the power, which | Jt had carried her triumphantly throtigh ress to exercise the whole | the war of the revolution, and’ borne her of it, or none. Considerations of obvious | jnto the Union, as one of the original thir- convenience concur in leaving to the sev- eral States themselves, the fixation of the | teen independént sovereign States.

But it | his ambitious aspirations sufficiently grat- sional legislation, - If different with the manner of holding | ifiéd undér this venerable «government, : at is whether it be by general and he undertook to subvert it, Assert- ticket or by the distriet system.

In ‘the other party we behold | nothing but division and distraction—their in different latitudes. In respect to the tariff, whilst‘in some places, the) aré pro- claiming that free trade is the true Dem- ocratic doctrine, and the encouragement of domestic industry federal heresy, in the Democrats are alone to be relied upon to protect the industry of the country, and that the Whigs are opposed to it. ~ That is a great practical and adminis- trative question, in respect to which there, is happily now prevailing among. the Whigs, throughout the whole Union, a de- gree of unanimity as unprecedented as it is gratifying. .From New Orleans to this place, | have conversed with hundreds of them, and I have not met with’ a solitary one, who does not assent to the justice and expediency of the principle of a tariff for revenue, with discriminations for protec- tion. On this interesting question, fellow citizens, it is my purpose to ‘address’ you,, with the utmost freedom and sincerity, and with as little reserve as if I were be- fore an audience in the State of Kentucky. I have long: giver to this subject the most impartial and deliberate consideration, of which my mind is capable. I believe that no gréat Nation ever has existed, or can exist, which does not derive within itself, essential supplies of food and raiment and the means of defence. I recollect no ex- ample to the. coritrary in anciént or mod- ern times. Although Italy‘ didnot itself afford all those supplies to Ancient Rome, thedeficiency was drawn from her subju- gated provinces. Great Britain, although her ‘commerce encompasses the ‘world, supplies ‘herself ‘mainly from ‘the little is- land ‘under her’immediate dominion. * Li- mited and contractéd as it is, it furnishes her with bread and’ other provisions for the whole year, with 'the exception only | manner, therefore, of holding elections was | tious limitations, may ‘be true—without ‘a fit subject, and the only fit subject con- | consulting the established government and | werful, and | tained in the grant of poral for Congres- | the public authorities, he undertook to beat | vongress had legis- | up for recruits, to hold irregular elections lated beyond that, it would have over- at which persons qualified and unquali- | reached the convestience and necessity of | fied, dead and livin the case... But the dominant party, in the } have voted, and thus securing ‘a heterd-/ try, it has always appeared to me that we & of a few days; and her manufactures, not only supply an abandance of raimentand means of ‘defence, but afford a vaSt sur- plus for exportation to foreign countries.

Jackson, de- clari haved bravely and prudently in thé affair with Wise ! - This at once stibjected es Polk to the charge.of having procured a certificate from Gen, Jackson of his braye- ry! ‘atid such was the handle made of it b| to the Colonel's prejudice, that Old Hick- ory,“ eternal,” came out inthe Nash- ville rion denying that he ever ‘wrote any letter of the kind to Col. Polk ! Where- upon, Balie Peyton, before some ten thou- sand-people assembled at Nashville, in 1840, stated the facts in the case, and ask- ed,if there were any gentlemen from Shel- byville or Bedford county there present, who heard.Col. Polk read at the time re- ferred to, the said certificate from Gen. Jack8on,-that they wouldsay so. Instant- ly some twenty or thirty voices in the crowd, from Old Bedford’s sterling. yeo- manry, sung out,“ | heard him.” “I heard him read it,” “and so did I,” &c. &c. The castigation which the gallant Peyton then gave the shuffling, skulking, trimming Polk will never be forgotten by those who had the good fortune to listen to it. Oh, it was terrible ! One incident more, and I will close this sketch. It is well remembered that Col. Bell and Cal. Polk were‘considered as ri- vals whilst in Congress together. It isal- so wellreniémbered that Judge White was very popular in Tennessee, and in fa with “Democracy,” so called, every whete. When, in 1834-5, the effort to bring*eut Judge White for the Presidency, by the Tennessee delegatidn, Mr. Bell purposely, for some time, kept in the back ground, in order to get Col. Polk committed: and he succeeded... The Colonel fuliy pledged himself to support the estimable Hugi: But when he found out that Col. Bell would support him also, and that Gen. Jackson .would not ‘probably countenance the.movement, he unscrupu- | lously broke his pledge, and afterwards maligned ,and traduced the ‘venerable White almost into his very grave!

A. GRAHAM, or ORANGE ‘Phe candidates to represent. Rowan inthe next Genétal Assembly of the State, commence | canvassing .the county on. last. Saturday, at Craige’s ‘muster ground. After R. W, Lone and James Crossy, had.severally announced themselves in very brief, pertinentand néeatad- dresses to their fellow.citizens as candidates for | the office of high She#tf, <<, Ms Narnantet Borpes, Esq. came forward, (and we were pained to see how feeble he had been made by a severe attack of fever, from which he has not Yet fully recovered,) and an- nounced himself a candidate-to represent Row- an and Davie in the Senate of the next Legisla- ‘ture. He tdld his fellow-itizens, what is riotos riously true, that he had not sought, nor had he desired to be a candidate: That he had been brought out contrary tohis own wishes, and jnjt- rious to his pecuhiary interest. His political triends in theis District Convention imposed up- on him the position which he now occupied be- | fore the people. His health, at présent, being , very bad he could-not, unless he improved, bear | the fatigues of going round and addréssing his | fellow-citizens. “In that event, his friends must | do thé’ electioneering. . | Mr. Boypven could not inform. his fellow-citi-’ zens of every thing »that would-probably come | before the next Legislature. Many subjects, no | doubt, at present unknown,-would be presented for the attention of that body. If he should be | elected, there was one branch: of the. existing | laws, however, he would endeavor to have a- |mended: He referred to the law giving pref- | erence to bond creditors. | Under the present laws prescribing the du- | ties of Administrators or Executors, bond credi- | tors, in the settlement of Estates reeeive a pre- ference. He saw no good reason for this, sup- | posing a debt by note and a debt by account to be equally binding in point of justice. He wanted to see them placed upon an equal foot- ing. Jf an estate proved insolvent, let all the claimants be paid a share in proportion. totheir | several clairas; whether im-the.form ofa judg- | ment, note or account. _ Furthermore, he want. | ed to see Administrators vested- with the ' con- trol of the landed estate of deceased persons; | he would give them power to sell the lands afier a limited time, as well ag the personal effects, | when the latter are found inadequate to liquidate _all the debts; and thus prevent the necessity, | on the part of creditors, of bringing suit .in Court against Administrators, compelling them to show that inadequacy, before any process can _be issued against the lands. This Mr. Bovy- | peN regarded as unfiecessary, as it was injuri- | ous to estates by consuming them in the cost of | suits so brought. | In obedience to a jong established custom, | Mr. Boypen said he would add a few words on the subject of National Politics. Héwas proud /to own that he was a member of the great | Whig family. He was no new convert, but had | been a Whig for many years. Mr. B. then touched briefly upon some particular measures | of national policy, and closed his remarks—his | health*hot permitting him to say more. Maj/Joun B. Loup folléwed next, taking up | the measures and doings of the last Legislature, | | of which he was amember: ‘He referréd to | | the. spirit. of proscription, and the evil spirit of | | Lecofocoism which very soon manifested itself | | first, in turning out of office the Clerk of the | House of Commons, who was every way wor- | | thy arid compéjent to fill the place he had occu. | | pied for many years.

Because, said he, I in favor of such aman for the Presidency; and you are in favor‘of him also, therefore you must support me forthe Legislature. “This, said Mr, E. had been the manner of électioneering ; and he would ask. what had the Presidential ques- tion to do with the election of members tothe Legislature: -He was opposed to this practice ; {and if we did not misunderstand the speaker, ] would endeavor to show by reference tothe acts of the Legislature for.a few sessions-past, that the courity ‘had suffered by it. ‘The course which had ‘been pursued by the State in its Le-} gislature towards the Rail-Roads, was assailed | in this céunéction.*” He said the State, by va-: rious Legislation, had’ loaned to, and become the security’ of the Stockholders‘ of the Rail Roads, severally, to the amount of $1,100,000; and that it‘would ultimately lose the whole of this sum. ‘He‘ admitted that bonds with secu- rity had been executed to the State, and that all the property of these Rail Roads was under mortgage to secure her, But, said he, these bonds are discovered to be null and void! In consequence of some radical error, they are en- tirely worthless, and can never be collected,— And what; said he, availé these ‘mortgages if the property is noaccount! - The stock is not worth biving, and thus the State must certainly lose all. her liabilities for these comipanies. Now said Mr. E:, if the members to thé Le. geites" who thus involved thé State in these ifficulties, had, when they were candidates, told the people what sort of laws they were go- ing to make, instead: of telling them they were in favor of this or that’ man for the Presidency, the probability is that the State would not now be liable for these heavy debts, &c. &c. Now, what is the truth in relation to this mat- ter.?.» We contend that Mr. Exits has misrep- résented it: He has made broad assertions,which cannot be established, He-iseven mistaken in his premises, for it is well known that a. ma- jority of the people every where, of every polit- i¢al ‘:party,”“were in favor of encouraging and batlding up these roads." The spirit of internal improvement prevailed in every neighborhood, and what the Legislature did for the Raleigh and Gaston ‘and Wilmington toads was agreed to hy Western Carolina, with the hope that by the same encouragement we of the West would be enabled.to construct a similar work. from Fayetteville to the mountains. | .The peopie ex- EB pected the Legislature to aid these roads, and | it is idfe for Mr. Excis to pretend that they were cheated into it by designing candidates, who claimed to be supported for the Legislature be- cause they. were.in favor of this or that man for the Presidency. Mr. E. is also mistaken in the declaration that the State will loose ‘all her loans to, and and liabilities for these Roads. She is safe as it is possible for her to be: No Bank or in- dividual.was ever more secure in a loan :, The “ worthless bonds” referred to by the gentle man are perfectly good,—secured by men of greatest wealth in the State, In addition to this, thé State holds mo: s on all the property bélonging to these Companies, (including the Roads,) which is almost sufficient of itself to | secure her from loss, even supposing, what is | untrue, that the works are unprofitable. The Stock, so far as we have any knowledge, is good, and it is believed will increase in value. But on this topic we drop Mr. E.., feelipg the most positive conviction that he will get very— very sick of this business before the election. After ridiculing the last Legislature—declar- ing it would not compare with a common Sebiitiong society of boys!” —~Mr. E. passed on - see + one “Wk ae ON ee : 2 - Ral " soe at Oe C: Calhoun, is the: btn etd theyy—tome | BES use other can get the support ~of the? * South th: £ fed John C.

Mr. Exxts, in ‘the course of his speech at Craige’s ‘muster, speaking of the operation of a National Bank said, that when the last Bank was in existence, “John Marphy, of, Salisbury — ‘ a. rich merchant,” went to Fayetteville; and hav- ing extensive.credit, went into the. Bank and’ got a quantity’ of United States money, and brought it to Salisbury, and: sold it. out at six’ percent premium. This, Mr. E. said, was one of the effects of a U.S. Bank. It would shave the money of all the other Banks, and”in that way prove a shaving machine to the people. Mr: Murphy pronounces-his part of this story. false. He never borrowed a dollar of U. 8. money from the Bank in his life, nor did he ever séll a dollar of it for six per cent, or the half of it.

And the Editor cannot pi ig. norance of the want of truth in the we are informed the letters was ghown to seve ral, who notified him that the statement was FALSE ; but notwithstanding he could send it to the world as the truth, to aid in building up a sinking party. It was not our intention to drag into the pre- sent contest any other argument thamwhat might spring from the examination and comparison of the principles advocated by the two parties ; but as an attempt is made to deck the candidate ‘of the Locofvco party in plumage “ hooked” from deceased worthies and patriots of 1775, we have no other choice, but either to let the falsehood gc to the world as truth or deny it. jt is well known to many of our citizens.that James K.

We learn from the Charleston Courier of the 27th June that the Hon. R. B. Rhett, one of the Representatives in Congress from South Caro- lina, has recently addressed a letter, in pamph- let. form, to his constituents. He is in favor ot a Southern Convention to devise means for the annexationsf Texas, but thinks sucha conven- tion unattainable during the canvass for the Presidency, the question that absorbs all others. “In relation te the tariff,” says the Courier, “ he ditfers, it seems, from Mr. Calhoun, and is for the State preparing by legislation to put her- self once*more on her sovereignty, [as ifa State were not always on her sovereigntY,] i.e. by calling a State Convention to meet in April next, to apply that most wrongful of all things, nullification, the rightful remedy,’ should the new President and the new Cabinet fot be of the right sort, and supersedé the necessity for State action,” {i> We are authofized to annouce Joun W.

The subject as been wach and; debated a thousand.times, in. every Anystable adjustment of ity whatever, it may be, w When once determined, labor, enterprize and commerce can dccomnindate themselves accord- ingly. ees whole Union, as well as all its parts, should be duly weighed and’ considered, in-a paternal and fraternal spirit. ~The ¢onfederaty consists of 26 States, besides'territoriés, embracing eve- ry variety of pursuit, every branch of baman in- dustry. * There may be-an apparent, there is no real, conflict between these diversified interests. No one State, no one section;can reasonably ex. the whole should be administered, exclusively according to its own peculiar opinion, or so as | to advance only its particular interests, without regard to the opinion or,the interests of all other parts, In‘respect to the Tariff, there are two schools holding dppgsite and extreme doctrines. According to one, perfect freedom in our foreign tradé with no, or very low duties, ought to prevail. According to the’ other, the restrictive’ policy ought, on many articles, to be pushed, by a high and exorbitant ‘Tariff, fo 'the point of absolute } prohibition... Neither party can hold:itself up-as an unerring: standard of-right and wisdom. . Fal. libility is the lot of all men, and the wisest know how little they do know. .. ‘The, doctrine of free. trade is-a concession to Foreign powers, without an equivalent,to the prejudice of native industry. Not only without equivalent, but in the. face of their high duties, restrictions and prohibitions applied to American products, to foreigh powers, ’ our rivals, jealous of our growth and anxious to impede our onwardprogress. “Encouragement of ‘domestic industry is a concession to*our' own fellow-citizens, to those, whose anceste in’ common, with our ancestors, in thé foils of the revolution ; to those who have shared with ts in the toils and suffe rings of our day; to those whose posterity are destined to share with our posterity in the trials, in the triurophs and the glories that await thém.. It isa concession to those who are bone-of our bone and flesh of our flesh, and who in some other beneficial form do make and are ready to make, equivalent concesston to us. It is still more’; itis a concession by the whole to the 7 capacity to manufacture and”every part ‘of thé country niore or less‘does manufacturé. ‘Some ‘| parts have advanced farther than ‘others, bat the progress of all is forward and onward. Again, lask what is to be done in this conflict of opinion between the, two extremes which I have stated ? Each believes, with quite as much confidence as the other, that the hr which he espouses is the best for the sonny: Neither has a right to demand that his judgment “shall exclusively prevail. “ What, again, I ask is to be done ? Is compromise or reconciliation i impossi- ble? Is‘this glorious union to be broken up and dissolved and the hopes of'the ‘world, whi concentrated in: its fate; fo be» blasted’ and‘ de-~ stroyed foreyer?... No, fellow,citizens,nol The Union ‘must: be} preserved... In the mame. of the people. of..this noble. o)d-State, the. first to, an- nounce the independence.of the United States ‘by the memorable declaration of Mecklenburg, and which has ever since been among the most deyoted and faithful to the, preservation of this Union ; in the name of the people of my_own gallant State ; and in thé name of the wholé peo- ple of the United States, I feel authorized to say, that this Union will not, rust’ not; shall. not be dissolved.’ How then can this inhappy conflict of opinion be amicably adjusted and aécommo- dated? «Extremes,» fellow-citizens, are’ ever wrong.’ Truth, and justice, sound policy, and wisdom, always abide. in the middle ground, al- -ways-are to be foundin:the juste milieu.

Thése local banks are often ri- vals, not only. acting withont concert, but in col-' lision with each ‘other, and having very r- fect knowledge of the general’ condition‘ of the whole circulation of the United Statés, or the state! of out ‘monetary rélations with foreign Powers. . The inevitable consequence mustbe, irregularity in:their movements, disorder and.un- sions. ‘The existence of loca) banks, under the authority, and. control ot the respective States, begets a.necessity for,a ‘United States Bank, under the authority and control of the Genera] Government, e, whole power of Govern- ment is distributed in the United States between the States andthe federal’ Government.” All that is*general and national, appertains to ‘the federal government, all that’ is limited and local to the State governments. The States carmot perform the duties ofthe general government, nor ought that attempt to perform, nor. camit ‘so well execute the trusts confided to the State go vernment. _We wanta National’ Army, a Na. tional Navy, a National Post Office establish- ment, National Laws regulating. our foreign commerce, and our coasting ae above all, perhaps, we want.a Nationul Currency. The duty. of supplying these National means of safe- ty, convenience and prosperity must be executed by the general government, or it will remain né- glected and unfulfilled. | The several States can nd more supply a national currency than they can provide-armies; and navies for national defence,.'Thé necessity for a national institu- tion does not result merely from the existericé of local institutions, but it arises also out of the fact that all\the great.commercial, nations: of the world, have their, banks... England, France, Austria, Russia, Holland, and all the great Pow. ers of Europe have theirnational banks. . It is said that money is power, and that to embody and concentrate it in a bank, is to créate a great and dangerous power. . But we may search the records of history, and we shall find'no instance, since the first introduction of banking institu- re-| tions; of anyone of them of having sought to subvert the liberties of a country ‘or to-create confusion and disorder. Their well being ‘de- pends/upon the stability of laws and legitimate and regular administration: of government. _ If it it. were true thatthe creation of a bank is to embody..a.monied power, is. not such a power in Of hands.of the general government, necessary rotect the le against the monied ‘power | in the form of ak tie a institutions in the sever. | al States, and inthe hands of Foreign Govern- | ments? .

In the commercial, straggles, which | are constantly in operation between nations, should we'not: labor under great and’-decided | divadvantige, if we had no bank and they: had their banks? We all recollect, a few yearsia- go, when it was:alleged to be the’ poliey of the | bank of England to reduce the price ef our great’ Southern staple, in order to, accomplish that ob-.,| ject, the policy was adopted of refusing ,to dis- count the notes and bills of any English houses Ifa bank’ of | 8 | the.

It has been asked, what, will you have banks, | merely becausé the monarchies of Europe have | them? Why ‘not also introduce their King, | Lords’ and Compions, and. their aristocracy? | This:is « very shallow mode of: reasoning, “T might ask, in turn,.why “have armies, navies, laws regulating trade, or any other national in- stitutions or laws, because the’ monarchies of the old-world haye them?

I know that they stand in direct opposition to every measure which the Whigs espouse; but what are their substitutes ? - The Whigs Believe that the Executive power has during the two last and | the* présent ‘Administrations, been. intolerably | abused {that it has disturbed - the balances: of the Constitution ; and *that, «by its» encroach- ments upon. the ‘co-ordinate. branches of the Government, it has become alarming and dan- gerous. The Whigs are therefore.desirous to restrain it within Conipnoney ene proper lim- its. But our opponents,.who assume to be em- hatically the fends of the people, sustain the esctiee j in all its, wildest es, gi extraya-. gant excesses. They go for Vetoes, in all their. variety; for Sub-Treasuries, standing armies, Treasury circulars. Occupying a similar ground with the Tories of England, they stand up for power and prerogative against privilege and unpopular rights. ‘The Democrats of Republi- cans of 1798—9, taught by the. fatal examples of all history, were jealous and distrustful of Ex- ecutive power.\ It was of that départment that their fears were excited, and against that their vigilance was directed, ‘The Federaliats: of that day, imbibing the opinion from the founders of the Constitution, honestly belieyed that the Egecutive was the weakest branch of the Goy- ernment, and hence they were disposed to sup- port and strengthen it. — But experience has de- mohstrated their error, and the best part of them have united with thé Whigs. ‘And the Whigs | afe now in the position of the Républicans of | 17989. ‘The residue and probably the larger part of the Federalists ‘joined ‘our t oppoaibits; | are now in the exact position of the Federalists of 1798~’9, with this difference—that they. have | shut their-eyes against all the’ lights of expe- | rience, and pushed the 'Federaldoctrines of that . | day far beyond the point to which they were ev- | er garried. by their predecessors.

Land Fund should cease to be regarded /as a source of revenue, and’ that all the | real wants of the government ‘should be | | supplied exclusively. from duties on im- | ports, assessed so as to prevent frauds, and payable in cash." ‘Po understand this subject, as it really was understood by those friends with whom | 1 acted in the passage of the Compromise | Act, it is necessary to recur to some other | proceedings contemporaneous with it. Mr Clay’s bill to distribute the proceeds of the} sales of the Public Lands among the States, which passed both Houses of Congress a- | bout.the same time with the Compromise’ itself, was by us regarded as part and par- cel of one great revenue and financial. sys- tem, which we desired to establish’ for the benefit of the whole country. While tern- porarily surrendering the Land Fund to the States, to which it rightfully belong- ed,in the judgment of the Congress of 1833, we provided, in the Compromise Act, that there should be a day fixed at which, in.accordance with a suggestion previous- ly made by General Jackson himself, the Land Fund should forever cease to be re- garded as a source of revenue by the Gen- eral Government. It is true, that we should have acted more wisely, as the event prov- ed, by incorporating the provisions of ‘a Distribution Bill in the Compromise itself. | But who could have supposed, at that day, that President Jackson would have vetoed a bill which carried out his own sugges- tion ? Nevertheless, he defeated that great and salutary measure. of Distribution, by means which no end can ever justify. He refused to return the. bill with his objec- tion, to the House in which it originated —unquestionably because he had reason to believe, that, had he complied with this, his constitutional duty, each branch’ of | Congress‘ stood ready; by a vote of two- | thirds, to make the bill a law, in spite of | his veto. .- Ihave said, that the Tariff of 1842, is, in my view, a substantial compliance, in | most respects, -with the principles of the Compromise Act, and the pledges given in that act on the subject of the regulation | of duties from and after the 30th of June, 1842. But it was not a,compliance in all -respects.. In my. humble judgment, had | the. Tariff of 1842 been passed-strictly in the’act’of 1832, to an universal levie of | the spirit of the Compromise itself, it would 20 pércent., at: the-expiration of nine ‘Nop of ‘their lungs, for’“Free Trade | years and four months.

Under ‘the. circunistarices” in “which ‘we were then placed, it was } ble to the minds of those who voted or e Compro- mise, that, unless ‘we aecepted that, we should have to submit to.the speedy de- struction of the whole manufacturing jin- terest. But it is due to the subject, that, in the answer to this question, the:circum- stances to which I have alluded should -be briefly explained.’ At the time of the pas- sage of this Jaw, the violent opposition of many of our fellow-citizens in the South, and of not a few tlsewhere, to the whole: protective policy was unparalleled in"the history of this pantry. South’ Carolina, by her: ordinance of Nullification, ‘had openly defied the General Goyernment,, and resolved that no duties should be col- lected within her dimits. It is easy, at this day, after thé storm has. passed over to speak of her resistance as.a thing which. could have been easily crushed by the ex- hibition of @ little firmness. _ [have never doubted, nor. dol believe that Mr. Clay.or any of his friends. ever doubted, that the power of this government was amply suffi- cient to enforce for the time the collection of the duties on imports, in despite of all the threatened hostility of ‘South Carolina; and all other enemies of the protective policy. But it is due fo:truth to say, that, at that. time, South Carolina’ had many other parts of the country...

Before I have done with this -subject, I ought to. mention, in this connexion, what I think is another strong evidence of the hostility of James K. Polk. and his political associatés to the pro- tective policy, and other true -prineiples of the Compromise Act. Although they contittued in power from the passage of that law until the | year 1841, they never attempted, in a single “in- | stance, fo provide either by protective legisla- | tion or by any Executive regulation, for any | mode rf assessing duties on the home valuation ; | pordid t | passage, had-left the Senate of the United States. ' How well his conduct comported with that feel- ing which became a man who had received at our hands a shelter {tom the storm which threat- | ened té annihilate him, I leave for him and oth- ers who are in the same category to determine. | 'l'o explain his conduct I must refer to a few facts. While the motion was pending to amend the bill by directing the assessment of the duties on the home value, a debate sprung up, in the course | of which Mr. Calhoun repeatedly argued thatthe |amendment was unconstitutional, and declared that it was impossible for him to vote forit. A | number of Tariff Senators, friendly to the com- | promise Act, with whom I was acting in concert, including, among others, Samuel Bell, of New Hampshire, A. Naudain, of Delaware, Samuel Foote, of Connecticut, and John Holmés, of | Maine, had resolved to compel all the anti-pro- tectionists in the Senate to vote for that amend- ment, in every stage of its passage, or to defeat the bill by laying it on the table. _ all the objections which have been since made | | sage of the Compremise, Mr. Hall, of North | to the adoption of that mode of preventing eva- sions of the law and frauds on the revenue ; and | we knew that the amendment necessarily, car- ried with it protection to American industry. was an unpleasant prescription for Mr. Calhoun ; _ but it was not ill adapted to the peculiat disease _underwhich he labored. After he had frequent- ly annotinced his unalterable determination to | vote against the amendment, which he as often saidit would be a violation of the constitution, | and against his conscience, to support, a motion was made—and by himself—to-lay the whole | bill onthe table ; and, on the part of my friends, | I avowed our determination not to suffer it to be | called up again during the session. | quest of a nullifying Senator, I withdrew that | motion, to give himself and his friends time to reflect turther ; but, at the sametime, they were distinctly given to understand, that, unless they agreed to vote for the amendment, at every stage of its passage, the motion should be renewed, and the bill nailed to the table ; ‘in which event, they*must fight it-out with the General Govern- ment. Those who are curious enough to con- sult the debates in Congress at that day, will | see, by recurring to them, that, on the next day, jWhen the bill was taken up again, every man | among them; every enemy of the Tariff in the | Senate, including the Honorable John C.

Tariff Senator) by saying that he voted for it UNDER; AN ORAL PROTEST! It is true, that promises made under the fear of death, are not binding im law ; but it would be utterly inadmissable to suppose that Mr. Calhoun act- ed under duress ; and it would be equally inad- missable to suppose that his vote was given with a view to procure the votes of others, then ne- cessary for his own safety,— such .a vote: oe ail begeck a ee tei upon at the time, he meditated an evasion of ge given in thé ieetene }days after the -p: pof this bill Con. grees adjourned ; and, in Jess three mo we fe J Bd, i + ye ect a8 a+ OW MVDiISHDEeH! tes Holt to} # en the high | the United States, with the officers of the Cus: j, They have the collection of the -duties for prp- | We foresaw It | At the re. | 4 - sah Tighe. a0 Has ended foripro- | Cons against son that thé for him. is as hostile to protec K.

I was one of ‘those who had imbibedthese opinions ; and if, for the last. twenty years, I have been the steady friend of protecting Americaii interests against foreign competition, it has been mainly owing to the conviction produced on the mind by the perusal of those masterly specimens of argument and eloquence, with which he sustained his favorite policy fh the halls of the capitol of our country. I have trespassed, too long fellow-citizens, upon your patience ; but allow me,in conclu. sion, by every congideration of what is due to the honor and intetest of your codntry, by everP feeling which ought to warm and animate. your hearts as American citizens, anxious for the protection of your own industry and the welfare of all the laboring classes among us, to entréat you not to overlook the true issue, to be decided, in November next, between Henry Clay, of Kentucky, and James K. Polk, of Tennessee. It is not a question between men merely ;—it is not a question about honors and officers and the rewards of partizan service ; it is not a ques- tion about the payment of the State debts, or | the acquisition of foreign territory: it is, as I | | have said already, emphatically a question of | | BREAD—a question whether we shall sink | the mass of the laboring freemen of this coun- try, who now gain their bread by the sweat of their brows, tg the level of the European pau- pers, wholabor for sixpence a day and find them- selves. It is an axiom of cternal truth in poli- tics, that a nation completely impoverished will soon be a nation completely enslaved. If, by the abandonment of protection to home labor, we reduce half a million of voters at an election to a condition of as servile dependance and as abject poverty as our southern slaves, how long + | can we rationally expect to remain 4 nation of freemen? More than a hundred and forty years ago the treaty of Methuen, which was one of the principal causes of the beggary and want of Portugal, reduced her to the condition ofa de- pendency of England, struck down her nation- | al spirit, and enslaved her people. By that | treaty she abandoned all right to.protect her own industry, and agreed to admit British wool- len goods of all kinds without duty or restriction. Nineteen hundred years ago, when Rome had | conquered the principal part of the world, and | freely admitted supplies from Syria and Egypt | and ftaty, the industry of her own citizens was | paralyzed by the withdrawal of that protection | to which it was fairly entitled, poverty and want | reigned where plenty had prevailed, and a race | of men the bravest and the treest that ever livéd, | Were speedily converted into the subjects of a despot. And so keenly did Tacitus, one of the | gravest and most philosophical of her historians, | feel the degradation of supplying her legions from the industry of foreign countries; that he | has announced with an oath of vexation and disgust, that deplorable change in her condition. Let us take warning from the examples of oth, er nations. Let us-guard and protect the real, not merely the nominal independence of our country. The ever fervent aspirations from ev- ery true American heart will be for the preser- vation of independence. “ Esto pertetia.”— MAY IT BE EVERLASTING.” State o€ Porth Carolina, SURRY COUNTY. John W.

James K. Polk’s Sagacity.—In a speech de- livered by Mr, Polk, inst year, at Madison, in | Tennessee, he denounced the. Whig: Tariff of | 1842 in the bitterest terms—one of bis main ob- | jections ‘to it -béing prohibitory and therefore | anti-revenue charactet—declaring that it would cut up commerce by the reots, and beggar thé Treasury. _Now, what are the facts? At-the single port of New York, the receipts for the five months (just. closed,) of the- present. year, exceed nine and @ half ‘millions of dollars, ‘a- gainst about four millions in each of the two preceding years. _ It is estimated, fromthis and other. ascertained facts, that. the revenue of present year will amount to at least: forty tons of ‘dollars, of which about fifteen millions mas devoted to the extinction of the Locofo- co National Debt, entailed upon the present ad- ministration by its “i ious predecessor.” That debt was about 25 inillions onthe first of January last. Is it not deplorable that the pre- dictions and arguments of the anti-tariff men, arethus perpetually falsified and. refuted byé = Polk’s Patriotism. —The Editor of the Jones- oro’, (Tenn.)

And, indeed, the intelligeticé we ‘receive every” day from South Carolina gives abundant evi- dence that thé ‘nullifying portion of thé pee of that State are rapidly returning | to their old ground, and that they are ripe for the reception and support of any trea- sonable scheme which' may effect’ the‘in- tegrity of the Union, to which this. nota- ble plan of Senator McDuffie’s is an. en- tering. wedge..The Nullifiers of South Carolina have never forgiven” and ‘will never forgive, the signal overthrow which met their first. attempt at treason against the Union ;and the obloquy and. derision which has ever since beén poured out tip- on their grandiloquent folly has led them almost to: madness... It has been'a galled sore which has winced at“every totich, and it is not to be suppose that they would let slip any opportunity at ‘once to-carry out their darling jects and to wreak the vengeance white for fifteen years has rankled in their hearts. The triumph of their faction at the recent Baltimore Convention,—their success in outwitting the supposed matchless tacti- cians of the -Albany Regency—and the abject submissiveness with which they have seen nearly the whole of Northern Loco Focoism bow to the haughty dicta of their Southern allies, when they coolly laid aside the recognized exponent of Northern democracy and proffered them an obscure tool of Southern opinion- - when they have seen the degrading ser. | vility with which, the North has qutetly accepted the “new phase of democracy” which has been offered as the Shibboleth, and rendered‘in their adhesion to imme- UAE UNUEXALIVU, Us Lue LEST OL GeIMocrat- ic principle, and that too in the very teeth of their heretofore acknowledged leaders, —it is‘not tobe wondered -at that their hopes have revived, and they see now the “golden moment” which has long danced so capriciously before their excited vision. Thus we see South Carolina pdliticians holding meetings in which they talk of dissolving the Union. as, quietly as they would entertain a proposition to cut up a arish into school districts, and. the Mc- Duffies and Pickenses leaving their high stations to enter a legislative caucus for the purpose of enacting a law which will show that they.regard a solemn provision of the Union as but idle parchment which the “chivalry” of South Carolina may set at defiance at pleasure.

Mr. Wright thinks that it would be highly improper for a man to accept the nomination unless he had been brought prominently forward by some portion of the Democratic party—unless some previous disposition had been man- ifested to place him inthat high position.

Are there any whoifeel indifferent ? If there be any such, they; must pardon us for believing that they have not taken a'good and:com- prehénsiye view of the issues involved in'the approaching election, and of the difference between the two candidates for ‘the Presidency. If the Democrats suc- ceed, they will re-establish the rejected sub-Treasury—they will probably repeal the présent tariff and bring the Country in debt by not raising sufficient revenue— hence will arise ditect taxation, a tax collector in every county throug’ out the Country, whose salaries will cost. the Country severa! millions of dollars. They will carry out their principles and give Jas. K. Polk a standing army of one hundred thousand soldiers,—they will give gold and silver to office-holders, and bank pa- per to the people, by the operation of the Sab-T ary. They will expend many |: millions oi the people's money than | FO" there is any néceessity for, as they did while in office before: They will quietly permit their political servants to steal and plander the Nation’s Treasure and escape to foreign. parts, as they did in the cases of Swartwout, Price and a hundred others. They will legislate for the continuance of power, in their own hands, and not for the good of the people. In fine, they will car- ry out their old maxims, that “to the vic- tors belong the spoils.” If the Whigs are elected, they will pro- vide for the country a sound National Cur- reney.: they will seethat dutiesare so laid on imports as to bring an adequate amount of revenue to defray all the expenses of the Government, without resorting to. di- rect taxation; and at the same time af- ford incidental protection to home indus- try—they go fet an equitable distribution of the proceeds of the public lands, among all the States. They will administer the Government economically, and keep her money out of the grasp of rogues and de- faulters ; and will see that no man, not even the great and good Henry Clay, shall set up his willin opposition to the will of Congress, who are the more direct repre- sentative of the will ofthe people. These are some of the issues involved in the pre- sent contest, and the people would do well to consider them profoundly before they- cast their votes. The Whigs should feel the importance of them and act as it be- comes men to act who sce the direct in- terest of their Country in danger.

Heis asmuch superior to Polk as the brightness of the sun is. superior to the brightness of a green cheese. -DEMOCRATIC FALSEHOODS. We have accidently got hold of a copy ofone of the Locofoco Documents broug ht out by Patrick McGowan, the Irish Ro- man Catholic. It is entitled.“ fifty rea- sons why the Democratic Party should succeed in the ensuing Presidential elec- tion.” This paper is No. 7, of a series of pamphlets now being “ published by or- der of a committee of the Democratic members of Congress ;” and taking this as a specimen of all their publications, there never were such unblushing’ false- hoods used to deceive the people of this Country as are now put forth to carry the next election for Potk. They say— “ The Democratic party ought to succeed in the en- suing struggle, because— 1. It was that party that opposed successfully. the elee- tion of President and Senate for life, in the conven- tion that formed the constitution of the United States, and secured salutary limitations to:delegated power in the amendments to that instrument.” Thisis- put forth; without ‘any ‘sort of proof. accompanying it... It is asserted in plain‘and forcible words, and it is designed | that no man shall know any better unless: he will take the trouble to acquaint him- self with the whole history. of those who formed the Constitution. We pronounce it a base and infamous lie; We ven- ture there is no individualdemocrat who will make the assertion upon his own re- sponsibility. .. They. will print and. circu- late these things, however, in the form of a pamphlet with no name attached, and if they can deceive any body, why it is all well enough! The. present Democratic party was.not,in existence at the time of The Locofoco Editorsare talkingagreat e deal about the personal apperrance: of eo James Ki Polk.

The, Whigs. of Salisbury,having made arrangements to raise a tall pole at the Court house in this place, in honor of Hzn- ay Cuay and Whig principles, are request- edto meet. there to-day (Saturday,) at 10 o'clock. The patriotic Ladies of our town have completed. a méstelegant flag and stream- .¢t, which are to be run up so soon as the pole is planted. «_ . THIRD CREEK CLAY CLUB. Ata meeting of the Third Creek Clay Club, onthe 4th inst,, the following spirited Resolu- tions were adopted without.a-dissenting voice. Whereas, John Tyler, acting President of the United States, aided by John C. Calhoun, negotiated a Treaty with the authorities of Texas for the annexation of that'Republic to the Whited States, without authority of laws, with- out —precedent—without the consent of the peo- ple, and-in violation of # solemn Treaty with the Repobli¢ of Mexico; with the full know!- tdge of the:faet, that sucha ‘step will involve us in @ warwith that Republic, and probably with England and France ; that it will make oe ene sh a of ten millions of dollars, and [mo advantage, except to speculators and gamblers ; Therefore me pee Resolved, That we believe this thing has heen gotten up for the express purposes of ope- rating on the pending Presidential election, and . fimally divid ing ibe nion.

While they raise a continual cry of bargain arid corruption, never was there such a wholesale purehase of the democracy, as by their Texian speculators. Among the leaders they will make princely fortunes, while the rank and file will have to pay the Texian.debt and fight the Tex. ian battles. READ AND PONDER! Raueien, July 10th, 1844. “Tell the Whigs in your parts to look out for Patrick McGowan, a Roman Cath- olie Irishman, and cousin to the priest of that name in our city, and an emissary of Senator Haywood, &c.

Even old Loring has at last got alarmed; and you know there must be danger when he is seared. . “Nullification is raising its head more boldly than ever; and many of the South Carolina meetings do not hesitate to de- | clare in favor of Texas or a dissolution of the Union. ident-we may look out for a dissolution of the Union. With that man for President who has twice saved the Union, and nobly resisted British aggression—with this no- ble pilot—this old Palinurus, at the helm, the ship of state will ride dn majestically to the haven of happiness and prosperity. Hewry Cuay has said—*This Union—this “glorious Union must not, will mot, shall “not be dissolved !” “Then let us all join to entrust it.to his keeping: under his protection he the poor orphan mill boy has grown great: under his protection, it never shall be dissolved.” The Raleigh “Clarion” of Wednesday the 10th, has the following : Look out for squalls, ye men of the West—Patrick McGowan is among ye, With a load of trash... He goeth fresh from the Emerald Isle the premonitory symptom of Romulus Remus, driving Hans ‘onnoffske’s horsé and cake cart, heavily laden with democratic documents, to en- liven ye. . He set out on his Western pil- grimage on Saturday last, with a wagon load of Amos’ Tracts “ Plain Thoughts for the West,” and other anonymous handbills printed at the Standard office for distribu- tion among.-the heathens of the mountains. We could not get.a glimpse of the.. pre- cious papers—though 1 dollar was of- fered in vain for a peep at them.; This town is filled with documents for distribu- tion elsewhere. ‘Two large canvass bags crammed with them came: in the mail a day or two since, to Senator.

Speak, of these nefagious-papers as they deserve. Speak of those who circulate and frank them as they deserve. The Locofoco lead- ders are making a desperate effort.

Young'drew out his flute without ahoth: er word, and played several gay ‘airs; whilst the: tridmphant soldier beat time with ostentation, applauded vehemently, and looked round as if to impress upon the auditors the idea of his irresistible im- portance. The company soon after reached Vaux- | hall, where the parties separated. But although Young’s exterior was calm,he felt a deep resentment for the insult to. which he had been subjected in his mistress’s presence, Her aecents had soothed his wrath, but it could not extinguish the desire of vengeancé, and of making his oppressor ridiculous in hjs turn; so he determined not to lose sight of the ‘ay- gressor, and to take the first opportunity, when he was alone, of speaking to him. An occasion soon offered, when he coolly addressed. him— “ Sir,” said he, “you have got an awk- ward habit of. speaking too loudly.” “Ah,” rejoined the other, “that’s because I make‘a point of being obeyed at the first. word.” “But that depends upon your hearers ; and I have a different opinion.’ “Have you? and yet-it seems that just now——” “O, but you must know why I submit: ted to your rudeness.” “Well, what is your wish now sir?” “To give you to uriderstand that if I produced my flute, it was not to gratify you, but solely to oblige the ‘ladies under my escort, and who were frightened at your long sword and loud oaths ; but they are not here now ; so——” “You know ihiet isa challenge, and your eloth “Why should it?)

The - condi- tions. being thus arranged, the young men joined their respective parties. On the following morning they were both punctual to their appointment. . The officer had drawn his raper, when Young produced a large horse pistol from beneath his cloak, and took a steady aim at his antagonist. “What do you mean?” asked the aston- ished soldier; “have you brought wea- pons to assassinate me 1?” “Perhaps; but that will depend upon. yourself.’ Last night I played on the flute ; this morning it is your turn to dance.” “T would die first; you have taken an unworthy advantage of this stratagem.” “ As you did yesterday of the ladies’ pre- sence ; but come, taptain, you must begin your minuet.” “] shall do nothing of the kind, sir 5 ; your conduct is most ungentlemanly.” “No. strong. language -here, captain ; dance at once, ort will fire.” These words, which were uttered. with much earnestness, and accompanied with a corresponding gesture, produced the ef- feet desired “The officer findin® himself in a retired place, and at the merey of a mah whom he had grievously offended, and whoseemed determined to exact Te- paration after his own fashion, did'as he was desired, and stepped through the fig- ure of a minuet, while. Young whistled a | slow and appropriate measure.” en it was finished, Young said— “Sir, you have danced remarkably well ; much _ better, in its way, than my flute- playing. ‘We are now even}; so, if you wish, we will begin another - dance, in which } will be your vis-a-vis.” Saying which, he drew his sword: .

York? The Mus- sulman cries out “God is God and Maho- met is his Prophet”—the Mormon. varies it with “ God is God and Joe Smith is his Prophet.” In many respects, Joe has the advantage over his illustrious predeces- sor: he, Joe, is not only Prophet, but is al- so Mormon King, and in, his triune fune- tion of Prophet, Priest and King, he lords it over God’s heritage with such a strict eye to the Lord’s treasury, that he will by and hy be enabled to. present the worl with a faint imitation of the eutw ard glo- ries of Solomon’s,temple. Of course, neither you nor your readers expect me to trouble them with the histo- ry of Mormonism—of it, as a form of su- perstition—as a manifestation of that phrenzy to which men are-sometimes sub- jected, of credulity apd fanaticism. For 1800 years, to. go back-no further, there have, from. time. to time, started up some gloomy or hairbrained enthusiasts. who were’ convinced that, shortly ‘after the preaching of their belief, the sun would rise for the last time, andthe things of time and sense be no ‘lofigery The Mik lerités' are the'latest example of this su- perstition—not to mention others equally absurd and fanatical. These ‘were the Anabaptists of Munster, the Fifth Monar- chy men—the followers of Joanna South- cote, and of Ann Lee. The face of soci- ety has been, and is now. so speckled over with these eruptions of fanaticism and folly, that the remark may not be far from the truth: that the sane man is- the ex- ception, the. madman the rule. But a truce to speculation, and a few words 4- | bout Nauvoo. The “town site” of Nauvoo is most | beautiful; probably no situation on the | Missississippi above St. Louis, can com- pare with it for beauty of location. Ris- ing gradually from the river to a slight elevation, it extends out in.a broad and le- vel plain, nearly a mile, then rather more abruptly to a still higher elevation, on the highest point of which, the Temple is-(to be) situated, the first story of which isnow completed. Stone masons and other work- men, to the number of near hundred, are busily at work upon it; all other public improvements are at present suspended, so that the faithful: may concentrate their means for the purpose of completing it without delay. If it is ever finished, (and the prospect seems now favorable,) it will be the most remarkable.public building of modern. times, . It is to be built of stone, 127 feet long, 88 feet broad, 26 feet high, with a tower 150 feet, high fromthe ground. These are the general outside dimensions ; the. interior plan is yet unde- cided: upon ; or rather, the Prophet has not received a revelation in regard to the in- terior arrangements, the Lord having re- vealed to him thus far only, how the bap- tismal font must: beconstructed~ This is quite finished: It is a large vessel built of wood—oblong in shape—about six feet deep, capable of containing twelve or fif- teen hogsheads of water, and restifg up- on twelve oxen, carved out of wood; the beasts are as large ‘as life, and about “three times as hatural.”* Although spe- cially revealed to Joe in these latter days, yet the idea is evidently borrowed from scripture, as may be found in Ist Kings, ‘th chapter. There are two public | houses—the ‘ Nav- | voo Mansion’ and the “ Masonic Hall.”— The former is kept by the Prophet. Ano- ther hotel, three stories high; built of brick; situated near the Temple, is nearly com- pleted. The Nauvoo House, when finish- ed according to the. present. design, will be.an elegant and commodious.- hotel— fronting ontwostreets 127 feet ; the foun- dation is already laid. The city is laid off into lots: of one acre each—the streets all intersect each other at right angels:—* lt isimpossible to estimate correctly the number of buildings by a’ bhp rat vation: there are.many substantial brick buildings, stores and private dwellings, dotted over a-space of near three ‘thov- | sand acres, comprising the] ‘the City.

The leaders here are busy in or. ganizing their’ plans—over a hundred per- sons leave in a few. days for ‘different States, to carry them out as far as ble. _T'mention these facts only ‘to aba that Joe is really in. earnest. He indig- nantly spurns the proposition to.run for the second office _on.the. same ticket with Mr, Van Buren: he thinks his chance would be much betteralone than to beas- sociated with the sageof .Lindenwald; doubtless, it is.equally.as good. The true. reason for this movement is, to. prevent his followers in this county. from. becom- ing divided even upon political questions. There are many ‘thoughts suggested to the mind by a -visit.to this place ; ‘but I have neither the space nor present incli- nation to follow them out. In‘ conclusion, I would say, let no man sneer at thesé people, or deem, them as of little consequence, either for good or for evil... They aré becoming of potent influ- ence.to the people of the State. of Ilinois: It is a serious question: ‘What will be the end of these things ? When it is considered that four years since this place was a desert—that but four families existed here, numbering scarcely twenty souls in all; and that now the population undoubtedly exceeds jifteen thousand, of hardy, persevering and enthusiastic people, surely it will strike the mind of the most ordinary observer that these people, whatever else may be thought of them, cannot with any degree of propriety be sneered at or deemed be- neath notice.

The improverhent which makes these machines supe- rior in a southern and even northern country, is an open cylinder with wrought iron spikes securely screwed in, thereby obviating the danger of.the spikes flying out, as sometimes happens with close cylinders, which greatly endangers the lives of the operatives. An instrament called a “shaker” separates the wheat from the straw The horse power is a decided improvement, as there are but two cog-wheels,and a band working horizontally, which greatly reduces the friction, and consequently the labor of the horses. Of these machines no fears need be entertained as to their performance, for the reason of their having been tried successfully by the agent: They cam be transported on one wagon from one farm to another, and after arriving at the place where the work is to be done, can be put up and set in operation in 15 or 20 minutes:- - With four good horses and four hands these machines will thrash of: good wheat four hundred bush- els per day. I now propose to sell the’ power machine, with 65 feet of band and all other “apparatus, delivered at Fayetteyille’ for $150 00, ede oaceyres for $170 00.

The conelv.+ sive answer to this question is, that Texas would then have no power to.conclude a treaty forthe termination of that war; our Government could alone do it.. It is therefore our own war, anda war in which we should be involved not by the action of Congress, as prescribed by the Con- stitution, but by the President and Senate... To say that this is a treaty, and that the President and Senate constitute the treaty- a power, is mere quibbling and rcp, Ba th the true meaning of the Constitution, this provision of which was designed to prevent this the very highest and most important of the soyereign | powers of the Government from being exercised without the concurrence of all the departments with which that power was deposited. ‘To’ in- volve the country in a war without such concur- rent action is a perversion of and a fraud upon the Constitution. I will not discuss the question whether the annexation of Texas without the consent of and-generous Spaniard will concede you any thing ; wound his pride, and he is forever your | enemy. Any injury, however deep, he will | promptly forgive ; an insult or disrespect, never. As to the late treaty, I should have voted a- gainst it— | Ist. Because the President and Senate of| Texas had no just power to make such a treaty. | The President and Senate cannot change the most unimportant law ; stilllesscanthey change’ the great organic law,and exercise that power which above all others requires the action of the | people, where alone sovereign power resides— that of ceding away their whole country, and | merging its existence in another Power. The power of the President and Senate is under the Government and Constitution of Texas—not to abrogate that Government and Constitution.— This, it will be said, is a matter of form more than of@ubstahce. Forms are often very sub- stantial things, and certainly no forms are of a character more sacred. than those which are provided for acts of such magnitude as the i ferring the entire’ sovereignty of a count Could the President and Senate of the United States do such an act? If not, what is the difference in the twocases? It may be, in the | more degenerate days of our own Republic, | that a corrupt President and Senate may make | such a treaty with some foreign Power. | Let us not acknowledge that such an act would pos- sess any binding obligation. It is no answer to this to say that there is no doubt that the great majotity of the Texas people approve the Treaty. Would an edict of the President alter. | | have the authority of law without regular legis- lative enactment, even if every member of Con- gress and every voter in the United States ap- proved it? 2d. The treaty is objectionable, because it is | in effect a declaration.of war without the ac. | tion and apprpbarien of the House of Represen._ tatives.. It will mot do to tell me that there is | no war. I have too recently seen Mexican cas. | tles filled with .'Fexian prisoners ; trivmphal_| processions with banners waving which had | been taken in battle, and men with the blood | yet cnging {rom wounds received in those bat. tles. is it really true that there is no war ; | or is it, on the contrary, true that the very exi- | gencies into which Texas is thrown by that | war constitute the main inducement to this trea. | | ty, from, am apprehension that the necessities of | ber position and her inability to maintain her: self longer in the conflict will-force her, if we do-not come tothe rescue, tothrow herselfinto the arms.of Some other strong Power? - Foran. answer.to this question, let any impartiahiman read the pondence between Judge* ‘Dp shur, Zandt, and Mr. M la & ser Ma Van Zan of August last pa of are » “ tis an important thing to England to-ob- the present situation of that country offers her every eneouragenient fo make, i aitempt.—. phic gee rm unrelenting , » career peat mentpes the Mexico would be a violation of our obligations to that Gorernment, | I think it would. To re- |cognize the revolted department of another Government is one thing; to appropriate it to | ourselves is another and a very diflerent thing. It results from necessity that as to foreign Goy- | ernments the party, in possession of actua] pow- er shall be recognized. Foreign nations. are not to wait an indefinite tine for the re-con- quest or subjection of a revolted province ora counter-revolution, and suffer duribg all the time a ruinous suspension of their commerce ; and hence the rule to look only to the actual posses- sion of power. But the question is a very dif. ferent one as to any interference in the contest, and still more when it is proposed to put an end to that contest. by the very short hand process of appropriating to ourselves the subject of it. But this point has been so fully discussed that I shall here leave it. But even if we had the strict right, I would not exercise thet right under all the eircum- stances of the case. Our course, in the opin- ion of the world, (I think an erroneous opinion,) has not been altogether neutral and fair towards Mexico in relation to this Texian revolution. | I desire 1o see the conduct of our Government net only upright and just, but it should also be beyond the reach even of imputation, and moreé especially when dealing with weaker pow- érs. It is not to be doubted that ia this matter the undivided opinion of the world would be a- gainst us. Such will be the universal feeling in Mexico. I do not doubt that it will not be forgotten or forgiven by the Mexican people. | I would not, if I could avoid. it, give offence to that people. Mexico is-our neighbor. ‘She js the most powerful of the’Spanish American Re- publics. If the light of liberty which we first kindled on this continent, and our free institu- | tions, are to extend to our Southern neighbors, | they must pass throngh Mexico. “She is, in- deed, the first borti of our Revolution. She | was the first of the Spanish provinces to throw | off the Jae ot Spain, and to establish institu- tions of which ours was the model, and her struggle to do this has been fall of instances of noble constancy and heroie virtue.

Let every Whig read it and resolve to do his duty. FELLOW-CITIZENS OF ROWAN ! The election comes on apace. On Thursday next the polls are to be opened and you are to declare for the men of your choice—for the principles of your adoption. Will you falter? Will you hesitate ? Will you suffer any thing but the most inevita- ble necessity to hinder you from voting on thatday,! A more important election you | have never witnessed. | The eyes of half the Union are at this moment turned upon North Carolina: anxious hearts are wait- ing to hear the news from, the coming election. One State has already spoken from the South in cheering and auspicious tones. Louisiana, where the hopes of the Texas landholders were brightest, where, if any where, their schemes were certain to succeed ;. Louisiana has elected a Whig Legislature, and rendered it certain that her: vote in. November willbe given -to Henry Cray by a decided majority. North Carolina comes next. Shall she give Wu.- LAM A.GranaM a.meagre majority of two or three thousand, or shall she pile it up-to eight or ten thousand as in 18407?

To the Editors of the Watchman : The great Mass Meeting of the Whigs of Iredell and the adjacent Counties came off yesterday, the 22nd, most gloriously. it was a proud day for the Whigs of Lre- dell and Rowan, from-which county there was a large number present. At an early hour-the people commenc- ed assembling. and continued to pour in from every quarter of the County until 12 o'clock. Hon. Wa. A. Granam was met about three miles from Town by at least one thousand Whigs, who’ cheered him most énthusiastically : Banners with the names of Cray, Freuincuuysen and GrawaM were.displayed. in all directions, with otherappropriate inscriptions. From Rowan, the Third Creek Clay Club were conspicuous, wearing a badge inscribed on it, “ Scotch Ireland,” with a magnifi- | cent Banner: They turned out in great | numbers, and it would not do to omit the | Liberty.

The Locofocos will soon be taught that Wes- tern Carolina not only knows. her duty in political affairs, but also knows who are worthy of their respect and support. For the Watchman. Truth is mighty and must prevail, While falsehood is weak and must finally fail. If the self-styled Democrats are honest and their cause upright and just, there is no neces- sity, no utility in attempting to support it by feigned pretences and variegated falsehood ; their party candidates for this county set out with the declaration that the money loaned to the rail road company was an entire loss to the State— for that Mr. Badger had given a legal opinion that the bonds taken by the Governor, lacked form and validity; when, in fact, Mr. Badger never uttered such an opinion, and in truth had given his solemn assurance that these same bonds were good, valid and available in law a- gainst the corporation, as well as against the individual estates of the corporators. Had there been any colouring of truth in this declaration, | it could scarcely mitigate the wanton malice with which it was uttered, as it could not pos- sibly correct the error ot the Executive, had there been any; neither could it redeem the credit of an alledged insolvent corporation or railroad company, where the express design was to criminate- and injure all parties concern- ed as well asthe members of the Legislature that authorised the Loan. ‘These ‘democratic candidates also charge the last Legislature with to be true with regardo the majority, as their works demonstrated, but they give no kind of as- surance, that their presence would remedy that defect in the next, nor can any one venture to make any such promise in their behalf, from a specimen of what they propose todo. That is to lay violent hands on the Literary fund of the State, and use it for the ordinary expenditures of the State Government, or in mitigation of taxes, and prevent the establishment of common schools. Adopting the popish doctrine, that ig- norance is the best security for devotion and obe- dience, to priest and prelate; so they think that ignorance will best ensure the preponderance _of Locofocoism and obedience to the will of their ‘party managers: a proposition quite consistent with democracy and equal rights, and a doc- trine most commendable for its novelty and economy—being equivalent to that verbally propagated by the notable Jack Cade some three hundred years ago. If it were'true that the Rail Road Company is insolvent—that their bonds for the money loaned are invalid, so that the money thus loan. ed may be lost, will it redeem the one or reme- dy the other to make an outery about it? We should think not ; destroying hope and inducing despair, is the work of the devil, If the act of Assembly on this matter can be believed, it on- ly authorizes the Treasurer to endorse the bonds of the Rail Road Company, for the sum of one thousand dollars each tothe amount of $300,000, to enable the Company to borrow the cash from any individual or corporation that might approve the security. Now, should these same bonds prove to be invalid and unavailable as against the principal or obligor, the endorser consequent- ly incurs no responsibility by his endorsement ; therefore, there is no loss to the State on this account, but if loss is sustained, it must fall up- on those only who advanced the cash—upon alledged worthless bonds ; so that this declara- tion overreaches itself in its first inception, and betrays its falschood upon its own brazen ae SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

The following paragraph, from the New Orleans Bulletin (pro-Texian) of the 8th of this month, fully confirms what we have heretofore, heard of the exeitement; in Mexico on the subject of the proposed “ annexation” of Texas to the U. States: | Nat. Int. The Mexican journals breathe nothing but. War against the “ adventurers of Tex-" as” and the “ United States of the North,” Says the Diario, (Government paper :) “ Under nocircumstances can Santa Anna or Mexico consent to the dismember- ment of the Republic. The capital :may burn like another Troy ; horror, death, and desolation may cover the land, and the last Mexican fall to the ground, but covered with glory, before submission is given to the ignominious proposals of Pre- sident Tyler. The loss of Texas seals the the fate of the Mexican Republic.” ‘FROM TEXAS. By the arrival at New Orleans on the 10th instant from Texas, files of Galves- ton papers to the 6th instant, inclusive, have been received. In regard to annexation the Galveston Gazette expresses itself well satisfied at the failure of the project, and thinks the condition of Texas i be ev ha and rous as an independent nation. A SgrrespehBelt of the Des- i. says that two attacks have alread 704 made upon Colonel Kinney’s Rane at Corpus Christi, and that a large body of Camanches are within twenty leagues of that place; from whom a hostile visit is expected ;-that the Government of Mexi- co has entered into a treaty with those: Indians, giving them blankets, ammuni- tion, trinkets, &c. to induce them to com- mit ravages on our frontier.

OUR: METHODIST BRETHREN. The Watchman of the South, an ably conducted Presbyterian paper ‘of. Rith- mond Va., has the following remarks in reference to the present position of the Methodist E. Church. Contrary to our hopes expressed some weeks,..ago, ,the General Conference of the Methodist Church had a meeting far from’ being harmonious, and took action on the subject of Slavery, which-so faras we, can .see, renders a division of that Church inevitable... Sofar as..we have seen, the. Southern. members conducted themselves with moderation and firmness. No. course is left for the South but.to with- draw. We much regret any eclesiastical division by. civil, boundaries, but if divis- ion. must..come, and. evil ensues, we are free to say that Southern Methodists are not responsible for it.: Some acquaintanee, North and South has'led us to believe that in all branches .of the Church of Christ there is as much that is scriptual and love- ly in.the Southern, as in any other portion of the American Church. This remark is not made in haste or for the océasion. There are many inall evangelical churches | in the South, who would do honour to any | denomination. Let our soul be gathered | with their's. -May no other church ever | churches once divided, North and. South, demagogues will have but little to do to| dissolve the: Union of the States. That done, then we shall see war and herrible contests. Brother will slay brother. The father and the son will stand in opposing battle lines, and tyrants and demons will clap their hands at the blighting of the | last hepes of man,for a fair fabric of well established liberty, on a scale of imposing magnitude, HYMEN IN-A .HURRY.—If. the fol- lowing story be true, either literally or from any foundation on fact, it certainly fide, and is said to come all the way from | Russia : An English merchant, residing at St. Petersburgh, desired to marry a Russian lady, which cannot be done without a spe- cial edict from the Emperor. He had | given up all hopes, when, one evening, a friend happening to find the. Emperor in -a good humor, represented the matter to him, and desired his permission. “Let ‘Miss A. and Mr. B. be married immedi- ately,” was the order given by Nicholas, try, whence, b the hands of the synod, and by midnight it in execution without delay. Mr. B. was | fast asleep, when a thundering rap at the door frig tened him awake.

The system of volunteer fire companies has been themeans of creating and organizing in Philadelphia a class of desperadoes, who have neither religion, morals, principle, honesty, nor any thing but a hatred of all law and order, and an insatiate appetite for plunder and blood. We have samples of the same class here, and in all our large cities, although the evil has not grown into such fearful mag- nitude as in Philadelphia, where the grea- partakes in no small degree of the ludi- | ter inefficiency of the local government crous.

It shows the stoic philosophy of the father. who. could sacrifice and disin- herit his own well-loved offspring, to.cher- ish the adopted child of the late magician. If the country is not prepared to approve, of Mr. Polk’s conduct in creating the mis- erable pet bank system, they -will surely give him credit for the sacrifice he made in going for the sub-treasury. _ He not on- ly threw a second somerset, but -eat his own words.

Now suppose we do away with the Tariff and adopt the Free Trade doctrine of the Southern Locofocos: All those four million | persons would be knocked out of business, and would have to go to farming to raise their own provisions, The farmers who formerly sup- plied them. could now find no sale for their pro- ducts, and, consequently, would at least suffer to the amount of one hundred and seventy-two million dollars. A protective Tariff fosters and encourages the manufacturing, mining and mechanical pur- suits of the country, and opens a market for the products of the farmer. Free Trade takes away all protection, and tends directly to prostrate all manufacturing and mechanical pursuits, and in the same ratio de. stroys the market for agricultural products.

The flag was torn, and dragged in the dust by the populace of Vienna; ut Bernadotte’s act was disowned by his govern- ment, and he was recalled to Paris. After his return he married the ‘siste. of Jo- seph Bonaparte’s wife. tributed much fo’ his’ political-fortune. His wife’s name was Desire Clary; she was the daughter ofa rich merchant of. Marseilles.— There is something remarkable in the history | of this womam, . She had been asked in mar- riage by Napoleon himself, when he was as yet only an artillery, officer’; but the father ot Miss Clary rejected; Napoleon’s offer, saying, there was enough Bonaparte in his family. The fu- ture emperor was thus dismissed. But Miss Clary, by marrying Bernadotte, did: not foresee that she would gain another crown, less brilliant than that of Napoleon, but more solid. She is now queen-dower of Sweden. It would seem that she was not much inclined to play the part of queen; for while Bernadotte went to reign over Sweden, she lived quietly in Paris for ma- ny years, and her busband was obliged to send formal and repeated orders before she would consent to go to Stockholm and assume the pre- rogatives of royalty. "But to return to the history of Bernadotte. He was living in a quiet retreat, when political and military events imposed upon him the duty of again engaging in public life, Bonaparte had gone on his famous expedition to Egypt with the best soldiers of France. Austria and Russia took advantage of his absence to renew the war. At the samie time the French government was enfeebled and torn by factions. An invasion by foreign troops threatened ; never, perhaps, was our country exposed to greater dangers.— In this ‘crisis, Bethaditte was appointed Minis. ter of War. ‘He held this post butthree months, but in this brief interval he displayed incompar- able energy. The National Guard was re-or- ganized ; a new army of one hundred thousand meh was re-cruited, disciplined, sent to the fron- tiers; the best generals, Brune, Massena, Championnet, were placed at the head of the troops, and victory crowned such prodigious ef- forts. Still Bernadotte, as I have said, was deposed at the end of three months, At this time, Bo- naparte returned suddenly from Egypt, and with the aid of the soldiers, effected the revolution of the 18/h Brumaire, the particulars of which are known to the world. Bernadotte, who preserv- ed his republican opinions, did not partake of the gencyal enthusiasm in favor of the first con- | throne by his son Oscar, an intelligent, prudent | Texans: their. “ repea sul. Some historians even assure us that he formed against him a conspiracy, and neglected no means for his overthrow. But for the sup- had intended to arraign him before a Council of War, as guilty of high treason. the title of Prince of Ponte-Corvo. tinental powers. He was in the battles of Austerlitz and of Wagram, and rendered emi- nent service. But in 1809 he incurred the cen- sure of Napoleon, because he took upon himself der his immediate orders. This was, indeed, a violation of al! usage; for the right to issue proclamations belongs only to the government or to the commander-in-chief, and Bernadotte was only one of Napoleon’s lieutenants. He was therefore dismissed from the army and sent into exile. pects. The Swedish nation was dissatisfied with its king Gustavus IV.,n sort of crowned Don Quixotte, who undertook to contend with Napoleon, and had already brought upon his country the most deplorable disasters. Ina na- tional Diet, Gustavus [V. was declared tnwor- thy to wear any longer the crown. His uncle was chosen in his’stead. He was an old man der impossible‘forever the return of Gustavus IV. The debates were long and animated ; there were many pretenders; at last Bernadotte den. What were the causes of this singular choice? directly ; for he would have designated quite another person than Bernadotte, whom he dis- trusted with reason. But the Swedes did not know of this misunderstanding. ‘They saw in Bernadotte a relative of Napoléon, one of his most illustrious warriors,‘a man who had dis- played a great genius in state affairs and on the field of battle. “Besides, they knew Bernadotte asa and surrounding 1 ‘ *. ‘ ? 4 1 a - This marriage intro. | r Ss duced him into the family of Napoleon, and con- {den became one ‘of the bitterest enemies of to issue a proclamation to the troops placed un- | It is certain that Napoleon did not interfere | vernor who had ruled with much wisdom manity the’ city of “Hamburg, and the ding provinees, when the fate of arrhs had subjected them to France.

The bitterness | increased on both sides; in short, in-1812 Na- poleon suddenly invaded Pomerania and_ the ‘slapd of Rugen. The Swedés were exasper- traband trade, ated; and Russia, taking advantage of this ani- mosity, made a secret treaty with Bernadotte in | the month of March, 1812, *® From that moment the prince royal of ‘Swe- | Napoleon. . After the disastrous war against | Russia, he commanded the armies of Europe, | and contributed mach to the defeat of the empe- ror in the plains of Leipsic. He encouraged ; the allied sovereigns to follow up their advan- | tages and to confine France within her old lim- | its. This conduct of Bernadotte’s has been se- | verely censured. Napoleon when at St. Hele- | na, said of him; “ Bernadotte was governed by personal resentment,a silly vanity, petty pas- sions. . . . In his infatuation, he sacrified his native for his adopted country ; he has lost his true glory, his real power, the cause of nations ! This fault he willéxpiate dearly. . . .” I will not enter into this question. - It is cer- | tain that it may be considered under two very | different aspects. “Ought Bernadotte to have | forgotten that*he was born in France ; and had ' hea right to fight against andaumble the coun- | try of his’ fathers? But, on “the other hand, - | could he betray the interésts of his adopted country ? could he consent to the ruin’of Swe- den? It was one of the most embarrassing sit- uations imaginable, and I believe that the most enlightened statesmen will hesitate to pronounce sentence for or against Bernadotte. After the fall of Napoleon he returned to Sweden, and obtained Norway, as the reward of his services. After that time he employed all his cares in governing his kingdom. In 1818, the old monarch dying, he was formally crowned, under the name of Charles XIV. He preserved great popularity to the last.’ Agri- culture, commerce, manufactures flourished un- der his reign. He respected the ancient liber- ties of hisadopted country. Often he took the first step in liberal reforins, and the Swedish laws owe tohim many beneficial changes. It is said that he took pleasure in writing in the journals, under anonymous signatures. Simple in his manners, austere in his morals and hab- its, affable towards all, he fulfilled his duties as king with equal wisdom and dignity. He died, some weeks ago, at the age of eighty years after a short illness, leaving a fortune of _more than fourteen millions of dollars.

Nothing could exceed the surprise and despair of Biron when he was informed that he was to die .on the following day; he broke out into vehement protestations of innocence, up- braided the king with ingratitude and cruelty, and defied and denounced his ac- cusers and judges, accusing the chancel- dealing, and summoning him to appear in chancellor, thrice armed in the conscious- ness of his own uprightness, did not die, but lived five years longer than Biron— until 1617, yoke of of Braganza, to the throne. he left two sons, Alphonzo and Pedro, and a daughter, Catharine, who became the unhappy wife of. our second Charles.— Alphonzo, who was a prince of mean in- telleet, mafried a princess of Nemours; she had a good dowry, a handsome per- son, considerable talents, and few virtues ; | and they succeeded to the throne. , Don Pedro, the younger brother of Al was every way his superior ; shrewd, intriguing, of Nemours soon contrived that her hus- band’s imbecility should be so apparent, as to justify his removal from the throne to make room for Don Pedro. divorce then followed, and she artfully de- | covered. manded back her dowry, well , knowing that it was irrevocably squandered ; but "ee a ee . = re ithe: eae s' .

As speaker of the House of Representa- tives, which office was given him to mortify John Bell, whom Gen.

Crabb, then a member from Alabama, gave him several pokes, it was passed by a strictly party vote. Q. What.was his conduct as Governor of Tennessee 1 A. It was so undignified and unbecoming his high station, that the people of that state repudi- ated him and his acts, nor has he ever since held office at their hands, although he has labored long and diligently for it. On one occasion his conduct was made the subject of presentment by the grand jury of Sevier county, who direct- ly charged him with pr pails in office, and a culpable neglect of public duty. Q. What was the general opinion of the con- duct of Mr. Wise when he insultingly told Col. Polk in the Capitol that he was the “ contemp- tible tool of a petty tyrant 1” A.

Mr. Peyton, it is made a part of the de- fence of the accused, that he is a descendant of the patriots of the revolution, and great efforts have been made to bias the minds of the jury in his favor on that account. . Will you state to the Court and jury what you know of his ancestry and their revolutionary services? I would not have introduced testimony. on this point had_ it not been put in issue by the defendant himself, as I hold that a man should not be responsible only for his own acts. A.

We again congratu- late our Whig brethren on the success of our glorious principles in North Carolina. This victory is the more important, when we take into consideration the tremendous efforts of the Locofocos to poison the pub- lic mind by flooding the State with the mest unscrupulous and lying documents, from. Amos Kendall and the Standard Office. Nothing was left undone that was thought of any avail, true or false. By reference to the subjoined table it will be found that Graham’s majority, as far-as heard from; is 3,192. The Counties yet to come in gave Morehead a majority of 326.

DISSOLUTION OF. THE UNION, The following extract from the Hamburg (S. C.) Journal is certainly worthy the attention of all those who treat the’ warning relative to the designs of the Disunionists. wiv. iediflerence. We ‘say it again, without the least shadow of doubt, that the party fulsely styling themselves Democrats have yielded itself into the hands of those whose ultimate object is to dissolve the Union. The Editor of the Journal, after epeak- ing of the proposed Southern Convention at Richmond, says : “Ifthe people do not look sharp, those disap- pointed Texas friends, will make a ca/-astrophe in earnest ; for they are resolved on a dissolu- tion of the Union, and are endeavoririg to bring about this event with all their might. They have been nipped in the bud in this State, and now are throwing out feelers in another scheme. Some of their editorial friends exclaim, “ How ridiéulous is the *attempt ofthe Waigs to char- acterise the’ Southern Convetition suggested by some otf the public méetings of this State, as a disunion project.’ - Do'they not know that such a convention was urged and advocated by the Union men in the great anti-tariff contest in this State, as the antagonist one to nullification, then denounced as a “disunion project?” And those editors should remember, that when vol. uriteers were raised at muster grounds, they did not proclaim that they would dissolve the Union at all hazards, Such opposition was altogether different to this political, Texas, chivalric Disso- lution of Baumquattle, Turnipseed & Co. There is no use in disguising this matter. If slavery would ‘be the only topic, this convention might do well enough.” BRANCH MINT DESTROYED. We learn by the last Charlotte Journal that the Branch Mint in that Town was destroyed by fire on the Saturday night _| the 27th ult. No one can account for the manner in which it took fire. Mr..Cald- well the present Superintendent, was ab- sent from Charlotte at the time, but had left the building in the care of a friend who failed to sleep in it the night on which it was burnt. - P. S. Since the above was in type, we have understood that a negro slave, be- longing to Mr. Burgess S. Gaither, the former Superintendant, has been taken into custody on suspicion of having set fire to the Mint. FIRE IN BROOKLYN. A fire broke out on the 25th ult,-in Brooklyn, N. Y. and destroyed twenty -buildings which were situated on Bridge, York, and both sides of Talman streets, besides the extensive Carpet Factory of Messrs. Higgin, in which the fire origin- ated. A great many families were sud- denly reft of their homes and reduced to poverty. THE 4rx—NOT THE 14ru. We notice that several of our State Journals have published the Presidential Election to take place on the 14th day of November. They are all mistaken: ac- cording to an act of Assembly passed in 1840-1 the election for Electors takes place on the first Monday in November, which will be the fourth day of the month. Editors -will, of course, loose no time in correcting ther former statements. The last Standard after enumerating the Whig and Locofoco gains to the Le- gislature, says: “ We have neither room nor time for comment this week.” We are ourselves in a most prodigious |, hurry this week, but we will take fime to say tothe Standard, that after all his des- perate and-deddly “eharges,” and after all hig mean under-handed tricks t6 cheat and deceive the People of the good North, he and his party literally “couldn’t come it!” You are all done for, and we expect daily to hear of your cutting for yiiy er! ‘. 3 .

If by “giving protection to home industry,” you mean to assert the distinct principle, that a ta- riff is to be laid solely or in any extent not for revenue, but for the protection of capitalists who have made their investments iu manufacturing establishments so as to compel the consumers of their articles, the agriculturists, mechanics, persons employed in commerce and all other pursuits to pay higher prices for them, then I say | am opposed to such a principle, and to any tariff which recognises it.» ‘Home industry, a ‘term so ofien- used by the advocates of the pro- tective tariffsystem, is comprehensive in its meaning; and by a just legislation should be made to embrace the industry employed in. the mechanic arts,.in, commerce and all other pur- suits, as well as the industry employed in man- ufactures. _ I have at all times been opposed to prohibitory or high’ protective laws, designed not for revenue, but to.advance the: interests of one yrtion of the people employed in manufactures, y taxing another and much the larger portion, thus making the many tributary to the increased wealth of the few. I am opposed to the tariff act of the late Congress, consider it to be in'ma- ny respects of this character—and, indeed, so highly protective upon some articles‘as to pro- hibit their importation in the country altogether. Tam in favor of repealing’ that act, and restor- ing the compromise tariff act of March 2d, | 1833 ; believing as I do, that it would produce | more revenue than the present law, and that the ' incidental protection afforded by the twenty per cent duty, especially when this would be paid in cash, and on the home valuation, afford sufficient protection to the manufactures, and al] that they | ought'to desire, or to which they are entitled.” From the Greensboro’ Putriot. DEMOCRACY. AND: TREASON, We have endeavored faithfully.to warn the country,.so far as our voice conld be heard,;,against the unhallowed ALLI- ANCE consumated between the Demo- cratic Party and the Traitors to our Union. But we have feared—awrfully feared— that the fact was no’ more than half be- ‘lieved, We have been at a loss, in what Manguage to clothe the annunciation, so as tZ*}to cause the momentous truth to be believ-. ‘ed as it really exists. . Many of our delud- ed fellow citizens seem to regard it as a “ Whig trick” or “Whig lie,” made for no other purpose but to operate upon the com- ing election.— (Heaven grant themaclear- er faith before it is too late!) Others, honest:and patriotic themselves and judg- ing every body else to be so too, cannot realize the fact that any portion of their countrymen cherish treason in their hearts. But such is the fact—tn the face of hea- ven ts the treason threatened ; AND IN THE FACR OF HEAVEN WE PROCLAIM THE FACT. ,.; How.long will our fellow citizens re- fuse to be warned! O, let-us crush it ‘in this its ‘‘first-dawning”—it will be too late when the brand of CIVIL WAR is lighted on the loved and lovely plains of our “sun- ny South!” It may now be done quictly by. the Ballot Box—it can then hardly be accomplished by the Sword. ¢ The « Democrats: and Disunionists are standing shoulder toshoulder. From their united rahks:comes up the: united cry of “Polk and Texas!” And from their ranks comes the terrible threat of Disunion ; it is reiterated and prolonged withoutrebuke.

The following isan extract from an “ historical outline from the accession’ of Saul to the throne of Judea, tothe destruc- tion of Jerusalem.” > The reign of Herod, who to distinguish him from others of the same name, is usu- ally called the Great, was no less remark- able for domestic calamity than for public peace and.happiness. Urged by suspi- cion, he put to death his beloved wife,* her mother, brother, grandfather, uncle, and two sons. His palace was the scene of incessant intrigue, misery: and blood- shed; his: nearest relations: being ever the chief instruments of his worst suffer- ings and fears. It was, perhaps, to divert his apprehension and remorse that he em- ployed so much of his time inthe labours of architecture. Besides a royal residence on Mount Zion, he built a number of citidels throughout the country, ahd laid the foun- dations .of several splendid townss. Among these was Cesarea, a station well selected both for strength and commerce; and des- tined to become, under a different govern- ment, a place of considerable importance.’ Bat the impurity of his blood as an Idu- mean, and his undisguiséd attachment to the religion of his gentile masters, created an obstacle to a complete understanding with his subjects, which no degree of per- sonal kindness, or of wisdom’and munifi- cence in the conduct of public affairs, could ever entirely remove. ‘At length he determined on a measure which, he hoped, would at the same time employ the peo- ple and ingratiate himself ‘with the high- er classes—the rebuilding of the temple in its former splendour and greatness. ‘The lapse of five hundred years, and’ the rav- age of successive wars, had mach impair- ed the structure of Zerubbabel. As--it was necessary to remove the dilapidated parts of thé edifice before the new build- ing could be begun, the Jews looked on with a suspicious eye ; apprehensive lest the king, under pretence of doing honor to their faith, should obliterate every ves- tige of their ancient sanctuary. But the prudence of Herod calmed their fears ; the work proceeded with the greatest reg- ularity, and the nation saw, with the ut- most-joy, a fabric of stately architecture crowning the brow of Mount Moriah with glittering masses of white marble and pin- acles of gold. Yet during this pious un- dertaking the Jewish monarch maintained his double character; presiding at the Olympic games, granting large donations for their support, and even allowing him- self to be nominated president of this pa- gan festival. As he advanced towards old age his troubles multiplied, and his apprehensions were increased, till at length, four years anterior to the common era of: Christiani- ty, Herod sank under the pressure of a tted by a children afd in virtue he a Rep aaa 3)! weed bows Aatipa ea cena tai ed Beles in i ee "<<: ay ri : ; : | the Charleston ‘M 4. The Tatiff of 1842—An ‘odious act—disgraceful ing reth.”t" . *The effects produced upon~the mind of: the: king: by the murder of Mariamne,.are powerfully described. by two poetical writers, the author of the History. of the Jews, and the unfortunate Lord Byron, ‘All the passions,” says thé former, “ which filled the stormy’ soul of Herod were alike without bound : from violent love and violent resentment he sank into as violent remorse and despair. Everywhere, by day he was haunted by the image of the murdered Mariamne ; he called upon hef name ; “he per- petually burst into passionate tears. In vain he tried every diversion —banquets, revels, the excitements of so- ciety. A sudden pestilence broke out, to which many of the noblest of his court, and of his own personal friends, fell a sacrifice; he recognized. and trembled beneath the he sought out the most melancholy solitude, till the disor- der of his mind brought on disorder of body, and he was seized with violent inflamation and pains in the back of his head, which led to temporary derangement,”<«Vol, ii. p. 90.

The African Guano Island.—Ichaboe.— The island whence the. guano is taken is about three miles from the shore, on the southwest coast of Africa. It is a barren rock, about a mile in circumference ; has no soil, or the least sign of vegetation.— The guano lies to the depth of about twen- ty feetyand without any variation in qual- ity. The continent is very sandy, and in high winds (hurricanes, for instance,) will cover.a ship’s deck nearly one hundred miles from the land. The birds-on the island are a kind of penguin and cannot fly to any distance, if at all, their wings being a kind of fin. It is believed that the captain of the vessel (said to be Mr. Parr, of the Anne, of Bristol,) who brought the guano, was the first human being who set foot on the island, which is very dif_i- cult to approach, there being no harbor, and a heavy surf... On walking on it, he could searcely set his foot without tread- ing on the birds, and they took no notice whatever of him, except pecking at his feet, he being barefoot ; and on a gun be- ing fired,:they merely fluttered: a good deal, and made much noise. There is no fresh water, it is believed, for some hun- dred miles along the coast, and no rain.» Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal. © (This island lies in latitude about 26 degrees south. We learn the price of Af- rican guano in England is $45 to $50 per ton ; Peruvian, $60. A cargo of South American guano has arrived at Baltimore. — Rich. Compiler.] DEATH OF MR. LEACH.

They landed on the shores of what ; now North Carolina, on one Of the is- ands forming Ocracock Inlet ; and after rathicking with the natives and ranging high church man, and exerted himself’ fo have that church’ fully established. 1643 “it was specially..ordered that no minister should. preach-.or teach, publicly or privately, exeept:in “conformityto. the constitutions of the church of England ; and.non-conformists were banished from the-colony.”Some who were thts ban- | ished’ ly came “over to Carolina in he coast for a few ‘weeks they returned o England. His patent “was drawn on he principles of feudal law,and with strict egard to the christian faith, as professed in the church of England.”.. It is supposed: hat he was stimulated to this enterprise, n part, by an attempt made about twenty ears before to find.an asylum.in the new vorld for the persecuted Protestants of Europe. The celebrated. Jasper. de Co- igny, Admiral of France, the leader of the Huguenots during the’period, or a part of the period, in which they were so cruelly ersecuted, had long* cherished the pro- ect of finding a place of'safety for his per- ecuted brethren in América ; and two at- tempts were.made, under. his auspices to form settlements-on the southern coast— he first at Port Royal, near the’south west orner of South,Carolina, in 1562; and he other at the mouth of the river May, he San Mattheo‘of. the Spaniards, and which no regular settlement had hitherto been established ; for in this year a com- pany having heard of a river that lay -southwest of the Appomatox, obtained leave of the Virginia legislature. to prose- éute discoveries in that direction.. Even in the.time of Cromwell, though the laws of comformity were not enforced against other dissenters, “ an act was passed by which Quakers. were. banished, and their return regarded as felony.” After the re- storation, in*1660, the English church be- came again the religion of the state; or rather the intolerant spirit of former years revived, forthe laws on this subject -had not -beens changed; and conformity ap- pears to have been enforced with as much rigor asin England. - ‘The church of Eng- land, with very little more toleration, con- tinued to be the established church of Vir- ginia until the Revolution of 1776; and even after independence was gained, ef- forts were made to have it re-established.” he St. *John’s ofthe English,in Florida, hich was in'1564. These were both un- uccessful ; and the project was, from ne- cessity, abandoned... Raleigh had learned the art of war’ under Coligny ; and being an admirer of’ his character, hoped to ac- tomplish what his master had failed to do, and to found a protestant nation in the new orld, but With a government conformed to that of England.. When the ship which he had sent out returned, the men, being delighted themselves, gave such a glow- ing description of the country to Elizabeth and her court, that they gave it the name of Virginia, becauseit had been discov- ered under-the reign, and by the. encour- agement Of a’ virgin. Queen, ~» The-name hich was:thus given in the first instance, » what isnow North Carolina, came to be applied: almést indefinitely to the con- inent ; and the country from Florida to St. Lawrence, ‘which was called by the Spaniards Florida, and by the French Car- lina, was by the‘English called Virginia, nthe early part of the next year Raleigh itted out a new expedition, ‘consisting of feven vessels, and carrying one hundred nd eight men, who were to form a colo- hy in Virginia, now North Carolina; but having failed in this and several other at- empts of a'similar~ kind, he resigned his patent; and nothing more was done to- | wards colonizibg ‘Virginia, or’ America, during the.remainder of that century.

But he had that instinctive tone and bear- ing of authority that kept his people within the | metes and bounds of his own despotic will. He and his party were one day resting themselves by a spring; lounging here. and there on the green grass in the shade of the trees. One of his subordinates, a big strong man, had got mad | with him. His rage had been boiling in him for several days; and some fresh affront at the spring caused his anger to become ungoverna- ble—he drew his sword and rushed at his cap- tain, swearing he would kill him. Fanning had stretched his slight form on the sward, and was resting with his elbow on the ground and his hand under his head. His devoted followers were around him, and he heard the click of their locks as they cocked their rifles. ‘“ Let him a- lone !” cried Fanning, in -his quick tone. laid “still; ¢alm “and selfpossessed ; with his punish indifer” with’ death.” “While the colony. was feeble,. and it was the interest of all concerned to, In, He | Seroret | keen dark eyes fixed on the raging lieutenant, | as he made a tremendous lunge at his breast. | short sizes belonging to the Pand But when the stroke came, its object swerved | ranged on the starboard side. away like a snake, and the baffled man plung- ed his sword into the ground, .

He cameto Little River ; there was‘no ford ; the bank-was high, and a deep place inthe stream béfore him. 4 But the foe came—he drew the reins and clapp- ed his heels to her sides and that gallant mare plunged recklessly into the stream. .She snort. ed in the spray as she rose; pawed the yielding ware, arched her beautiful mane above the sur- face, and skimmed along like a wild-swan.— Hunter turned her down stream in the hope of evading his pursuers ;. and she reared and dash- ed through the flashing waters of the shoal, like lightning in the storm cloud. But Fanning was on the trail, and rushing down the bank with all the mad energy that the loss of his favorite could inspire. Hunter turn- ed the mare to the opposite bank; it was steep —several feet of perpendicular rock—but she planted herself high on the shore at a bound ; and then away she flew over the interminable forest of pines, straight and swift as an arrow On and on did the generous brute bear her master’s foeman, till the pursuers were left hope- lessly behind. Late in the evening Hunter rode into Salisbury, had the slug extracted from Ais shoulder, and after lingering some time with the effects of his wound and excitement, finally got well. And that gallant mare, that had done him such good service, he kept and cherished | .ill she died of old age. "76. Randolph, N. C., Aug. 1838. From the Boston Post. THE LAST SEA FIGHT.

Thén all three bore down towards the Pandora, evident- ly. with the intention of attacking her on both sides. .But Capt. Paxton, who had foreseen such an event, while they were maneuvring hoisted his foretopsail-yard to the masthead, antstationed a boy aloft to let the sail fall if it should be necessa- ry. Seeing the disposition of the enemy, he gave then in suecession a raking shot, as his guns bore, then cut away his spring and cable, set the foretopsail, and ran in before the wind... Being: perfectly ac- quainted with the harbor, he laid his ves- sel broadside on the beach, still presenting the starboard side to the enemy. The guns were once more brought to. bear on them, and another the last broadside, was but hauled their wind outof the bay,leaving the Pandora unvanquished, even though she was ashore. Capt. Paxton and his crew gave three cheers for the American flag, and thus closed this glorious encoun- ter. “ The crew of the Pandora, all told ; con- sisted: of eight men and a boy; of these, one man had a toe torn off by the recoil of a gun, and another’s face was burned with gunpowder ; these were the only ac- cidents which befel the crew. .The ves- ships—running rigging“and sails cut— long boat shot away—the quarter of the jolly boat stove—and maintopmast back- stay on the starboard side and the two afer shrouds on the larboard: side of the main rigging shot away.

RISING OF THE MISSOURI AND MIS- SISSIPPI. We failed to notice, in season, the. re- cent overflowing of the. country and. de- struction of property, inthe range of the Missouri and. Mississippi. Rivers. The following is. from the Marion Telegraph : Upwards of four hundred stores in St. Louis, were either under or obstructed by water! The most inconceivable distress prevailed among the inhabitants, who were driven into the city for, shelter for miles around. The entire American bot- tom in Illinois is overflown, five or ten miles in extent, and varying in depth ten to twenty feet. The whole rise at St. Louis above ordinary low water mark, as ascertained by the City Engineer, is near forty feet! A great number of dwel- lings in the less elevated’ districts of the city were also submerged or surrounded by the devastating ¢lement—so that’ the wholé number of houses, the owners and tenants of which will be heavy sufferers, may be set down at ‘not less than one thou- sand! «More than one’ hundred tons are overflowed, and half that number dre’ en- tirely swept away! Thousands of farms are under water, and houses, fences, stock and provisions all gone ; while as many families, embracing thousands of persons, are left. without shelter, in many instances without clothing or a mouthful of food.— Added ‘to this, the number of lives lost is doubtless very large; a great many are already known of, ‘while many have per- ished whose end will never be known.— Many have beén: rescued from ‘the most perilous situations—men, women and chil- dren: and the river is still rising! “It is now several feet higher than it has been at any time within sixty years past! The noble Mayor of St. Louis, Bernard Pratte, has devoted the year’s salary of his office (two thousand dollars) to~ the temporary relief of the sufferers; and the citizens generally are acting most worthi- ly and charitably.’ Heaven only knows where or when this great calamity will end. : , P.

His personal endowments ensure this, and if America wishes to see her sons united |once more in a noble race of patriotic glory, and all minor questions merged as far as possible in the great question of her own advancement and renown, this is the man to accomplish her hopes. In our opinion the most remarkable mental endowment of Mr. Clay is one that we do not remember ever to have seen ascribed to him in print—ir 1s HIs CoMMON sENSE. [le is the most sagacious public man this country has produced, except Benjamin Franklin. His knowledge of liver some of his greatestspeeches; we have read them all. His fame as an orator is world-wide ; but what is the oratory of those great discourses? No flowers of rhetoric adornthem. No vast fund of ac- quired erudition,.Mr. Clay hardly ever quotes from books. No elaborate argu- mentations. Whatthen? The grandetr of an intellect that seems to perceive truth intuitively, united to a pathos fervent as that of Demosthenes. ‘Thisis the man— full of spirit—full of sense. We have lis- tened to all our great.public men. If we wanted a grammarian in the ancient sense of the word, we would take Mr. Calhoun, whose mind seems to have no fixed views of truth; if we wanted the clearest de- monstration of a given preposition, we would have none but Webster, the grcat- | est logician that lives; if we desired the aid of all thatis rich, full, and overwhelm- ing in true eloquence, Peston is the man; if we needed the clearest, purest and most | beautiful advocacy of all right and noble things, Crittenden is the living mode] ; but if we desired to know -the truth, to be taught the right, to be kept from delusion, to be set in the way in which we ought to walk for our country’s good, and to be supported in the noble race, then Henry Clay is the trué guide; and it is nearly the ‘same, from the halls of Congress, or from the shades of Ashland. Call it as you will— we call it common sense—this man has an intelléct, beside which few that have ex- isted could stand. If Americadesirés her vast interests to be directed by a mind.ca- pacious of all things, and clear as & béam of light, this is the man. ” The greatest of ‘all active éndowments are undoubtedly those. which are usually calléd executive powers,the power to con- trol and direct rs.” is the crown- ing grace of greatness—the power to rule.

Else how could he, in common honesty, have yentured upon the bold assertion that it affords‘ xo protection to the farmer ?” Let ts examine the matter a fittle by the aid of facts, The Georgian asserts that the agricultural interests, because the largest, ought to receive the greatest share of protection. Now it is a remark- able fact, that although he complains that under the act of ’42 the farmers receive no protection, yet the Georgian and the whole Southern-wing of the Democracy supported McK ayv’s Bill, which made large reduetions of duty on the principal produc- tions of agriculture. We append astate- ment of the duties under the.two Bills; Tariff of ’42 McKay’s Bill, Cotton 59 pr. ct. ” free Wool MD 30 per cent. Hemp 33“ “ 30 “ “ Pork & Beef 120 “ “ 2s. * * Cheese 70 6“ “ 25 “ “ Wheat a * & 2 * * Oats 832 “ 6 25 “ Potatoes mam? a «.* Sugar 71“ a * Butter 40“ 4 25. * By this aot too, the duty on wool is ren- dered nugatory. by the fact that woolen goods are admitted at 10 a 20 per cent, while woolen yarns are at 25 per cent. Notwithstanding our neighbor is highly indignant that Southern interests are not protected, as he says, by the present Ta- riff, we find him in violation of all his pro- fessions, advocating a bill which takes the duty off cotton and admits it free, and reduces the duty on sugar 14 per cent ! ! It will be seen that the farming inter- ests are protected almost to prohibition, and that our neighbor’s assertion is not warranted by the record ; however, it may be regarded as excusable on account of his inconsiderate zeal forhis Free Trade Theories. The farmer is not only directly protec- ted by the act of 42, bat he has a deep interest in the maintenance and prosperi- ty of our manufactories. The value of agricultural produce required annually for the suste.ance of the population di- rectly and indirectly engaged in manufac- | tories, is over $150,000,000—ten times | | more than the annual export of these pro- | | ducts abroad, and one half more than the | entire exports of the country, It is con- tended by the Free Traders, that the more we import the more we will sell abroad. There | affairs seems rather intuitive than the re- | The fallacy of this theory is fully exem- , ult of experience. We have heard himde- | plified b& the fact, that under the reduced | duties of the Compromise Act from 1834 | to 1839, the excess of imports was over | $181,000,000, while the exports of those | agricultural products fell from 17 to | $9,000,000 annually. If production inci- | dentally afforded under. the act of ’42— | the population who are now consumers of | $150,000,000 annually,must become produ- | cers themselves. The consequence would | be the inevitable prostration of the whole farming interest of the country. | Massachusetts alone consumes, of the | products of other States, forty-two mil- | lions per year—more than one half. our entire exports—excluding domestic man- ufaectures. She consumes annually more flour from other States than is exported to | all foreign countries! In New-England in 1842 more than 200,000 barrels of flour were consumed in making starch and s7z- \mg, being more than was exported to | England during the the same time! | The South participates largely in the | benefits of this system. Under its influ- , ence has been fostered the production of | her great staples, cotton’and sugar. The |Home Market is the salvation of her | planters, Every man, familiar with the | business of our city, knows that the North- ern mantfacturer pays higher. prices for his cotton than any other purchaser.— When he enters the market the Eng- lish buyer stops; and when he has sup- | plied his orders, prices almost ihivariably recede. It is often the case that the cot- ten purchased by our manufactures cost | them more per pound than the English /manufacturer pays for his supplies. If | Free Trade should prevail, the 400,000 bales of cotton now used at home (for the manufactories must sink under it) would be added to our, exports—the sugar inter- ests would also be broken up, (as they nearly were-under the low duties of "36 to 42,) and the sugar grower would have to. turk his attention to. the cultivation of cotton, thus adding 400,000 more to our annual crop’; so'that our export of cotton visions, and without hav- | &*” a ™ 7, 2G — himself, be Extract from a letter written by Gen.

H. Coleman, of Warren- ton, N. C. “Wasnineron Cyry, April 26. 1824. “Heaven smiled u and gave us liberty and independence, e same, Providence has blessed ys with the means of National Indepen. dencé ‘and National ‘defence. If ‘we omit or refusé to .use’ the gifts which he has extended to.us we deserve not the continuation of his blessing. He has filled our mountains and our Fis’ with mifierals—with lead, iron and copper, and given us a climate and ‘soil:for the growing of hemp and wool. These being the great materials of our National defence, they ought tu-have'extended to them adequate and fair protection, that our manufacturers and la: borers may be placed in a fair competition with those of Europe, and that we may have within our country a supply of those leading and im- portant articles so essential to war. I will ask what is the real situation of the agriculturist ? Where has the American farmer a market for his surplus produce? Except for Cotton, he has neither a foreign nor a home market. Does not this clearly prove, when there is no market either at-home or abroad, that there is too much laber employed’ fn agriculture? Com- mon sense at once points out the’ remedy.— Take from agriculture in the United States six hundred thousand men, women and children, and you will at once. give a market for more breadstuffs than all Europe now furnishes us. In short, sir, we have been too long subject to the policy of British merchants. It is time we should become a little more Americanized, and instead of feeding paupers and laborers of Eng- land, feed our own, or else in a short time, by continuing our present policy, we shall be pau- pers ourselves. It is therefore my opinion thata careful and | judicious "Tariff is much wanted to pay our na- | tional debt, and to affurd us the means of that defence within ourselves, on which the safety of our couniry and liberty depends, and last though not least give a proper distribution of our labor, which must prove beneficial to the happiness, independence and wealth of the community. I am very respectfully, your ob’t ser’t. ANDREW JACKSON.” We have alluded to but one branch of this great question, which we believe ought to receive the undivided support of the American people. It is to be regret- ted that it has become a party measure ; but we believe we shall yet see the day when every American citizen will unite in its support. We respectfully commend this subject to the calm consideration of our neighbor. We are sure thatif he investigates it with | a sincere desire to discover the truth, he will find he hasmany very erroneous views. Finally we beg leave to remind him that Messrs. Silas Wright, Ruel Williams, and James Buchanan and other Democrats, voted for the Tariff of 1842, on the express ground that it was fo save the country from bankruptcy and ruin. The Georgian no- minated Mr. Buchanan as his candidate for the Presidency, and yet he proposes with his party to return to, the low rates of 1836 to ’42, which entailed that bank- rupt¢y and ruin on the land! Calumnies against Mr. Clay.—In reference to the calumnies so fruitfully devised, and in- dustriously circulated, against Mr. Clay, the National Intelligencer wisely says : Seriously, upon the experience of nearly forty | years’ near and constant observation of the ac- | tions and motives of Mr. Clay, we take upon | ourselves to assure the younger friends of our profession, who have not enjoyed the same ad- vantage, that the man does not live who can truly alledge any thing to impeach in the slight- est degree of honor, the integrity, the manliness or the disinterested patriotism of the great Statesman of the West. He is not a man to be defended against such two penny inventions as base natures only can conceive, and weak minds only can give credit to. Such calumnies, unanswered, fall harmless at his feet. He lives and breathes in an ele- ment above their level.

Be it remembered, that these great benefits are results of the Tariff, within the short space of eighteen months: and.it is the confident an- ticipation of business men and statesmen. that this is but the precursor of still brighter days, should this measure remain undisturbed a few years longer. It is therefore for the People now to choose between. the measures of the party that ruined the country and the. measures of the party that has saved the country ; between measures that are directed exclusively to the public good, and measures that are suggested by party motives, and intended, primarily at least, for party pur- poses. This retrospect, with its impressive admoni- tions, connected as it is with the future by. the. operation of cause and effect, suggests this ob- vious reflection ; Will the Peorie, to whom be- longs all the power, and upon whom will rest, for weal or for wo, all the consequences result- ing from the administration of the Government —will they stand torth, unflinching supporters of the men and the measures that give honor and strength and prosperity to the nation; or will they, in an ignoble spirit of vassalage, re- turn to old .task-masters, and isvite another blight to desolate. our land and impoyerish and dishonor our rich inheritance 1 This, when stripped of the disguises that cun- ning has thrown over it to cheat a confiding People, is the true issue now to be tried.

The Whigs of North Carolina have elected their Governor by a majority large enough for all useful purposes, and literally swept the Legislature. Try again, Billy, and see if youcan make your readers be. lieve that “grinning Jimmy Polk,” will get the electoral vote of North Carolina. Proscription.— We recollect remarking, when our friend John F. Poindexter was beat. en for Solicitor by the Loco. Foco Legislature, that they would hear from him again. He has verified our prediction, and spoken in tones of thunder to those who proscribed him for opin- ion’s sake. He has been elected to the Le- gislature, and carried another whig with him. G. A. Miller, Esq., of Davie, who was also proscribed as an Engrossing Clerk, has been also returned tothe Legislature from that county. [ Register. A GOOD ONE. A correspondent of the Raleigh Register tells a good story of a Mr. Jackson, a Lo- cofoeo candidate for the State House of Com- mons in one ofthe counties, during a recent political discussion. He says: I cannot close this communication without telling how Mr. Jackson was caught the other day upon the tariff. You recollect a certain let- ter, of rather an uncommon character for a Southern Locofoco, which Col. Polk wrote re- cently to Mr. Kane of Philadelphia. Well this letter, by some means, found its way into Mr. Haughton’s hands before it reached the eyes of the Locos. Mr. H. copied the letter off, and read it to Mr. J. asking him if he subscrib- ed to the doctrines contained in it? Mr. 'J. re- plied he would not. Mr. H. then asked him if he would believe the Standard, and receiving an affirmative answer, he produced the Stan- dard and read therefrom Col. Polk’s letter, con- taining the very identical words which Mr, H. had read to Mr, J. and which the latter gentle- man denounced so decisively. Mr. Jackson, finding himself fairly tapped tried by every means to creep out of the dilemma, but discov- ering that there was nu way of escape, he a- dopted the same course he pursued when he made the famous application of Judge Story’s opinion in the Dartmouth pa case, (viz.) | he ‘fessed the corn,’ and begged off. False Prophets.—For weeks the ‘ Standard’ has been proclaiming with the air of a confi- dent victor, that the biscos would signally tri- umph in North Carolina. The result shows what reliance is tobe placed either on the judg- ment or statements of its Editor. We have no doubt that most of the money, which his party have lost in bets, was predicated on statements in that paper. And yet, probably, they will allow themselves to be deceived again when the Presidéntial election comes On. [ Register.

Tennessee.—The indomitable Whigs of this noble State, are carrying on the canvass with the utmost vigor and enthusiasm imaginable. We see a spirited call in the Whig papers of the State for a grand mass convention of not only the Tennessee Boys, but for the Whigs of the Union to assemble at Nashville, on the 2ist instant, which it is supposed, will far outstrip the Convention of the People held there in 1840, and which exerted such a healthful influence in the campaign of that year. If the prospect of hearing fine speaking and good and true men, will tend to draw the People together, this Con- vention will be one of the largest ever held in the country ; for we understand those expected are the following: Hon.

A decision was given in the Supreme Court of New York, a few days since, virtually declaring that the Marine Court of that city is not one of record. This is very important to naturalized citizens, as many foreigners who have gone through the process of law for the. purpose of ac- quiring the rights of citizens, have attain- ed. their. rights through the Marine Court. It now appears that all that has been done in this respect has been illegal. The de- cision disiranchises a great part of the foreign voters in that city and State, and will have considerable etfect, it is said, on titles of real estate. The New York Express says; “The judges who have made this decision i in the two highest Courts are not Whig Judges, but all of them, we helieve,.of yea poetics It has been.recently decided at w. Orleans that the naturalization pa- pers avail nothing when procured with- out authority of law and the proper courts of law. If this decision is to prevail here, the effect will be to undo what has. been illegally done for more than thirty years past.” PENNSYLVANIA. One of the largest public meetings ever held on any occasion in Pennsylvania took place on Satarday last at Chester, in Delaware county. Thousands of good and true Whigs poured in from all the neighboring country, and the ‘pro- ceedings throughout were marked by the warm- est enthusiasm. The following letter from Gov. Jowzs, of Tennessee; addressed to Charles Gibbons, Esq. will give a pretty good idea of the unfairness to say nothing of the downright dishonesty which the Locofocos in attempting to palm off Mr. Polk upon the people as a friend to protec.

The rabbi feared excessively ; almost to fainting ; but he thought it better to be si- ‘| lent; and sadly. he followed his guide, who brought him to a, splendid house, in the most magnificent quarter of the city. « Enter here,” said the demon to Jocho- nan, * for this ‘house.is mine. The lady and the child are in the upper chamber.” And, accordingly, the sorrowful rabbi as- cended the stair to-find them. The lady whose dazzling beauty -was shrouded by melancholy beyond hope, lay in bed: the’ child, in‘ rich raiment slum- bered, in the lap of the nurse, by her side. “I have brought to’ thee, light’ of my eyes!” said the demon, “Rebecca, beloved of my soul! Ihave brought thee Rabbi Jochonan the wise, whom thou didst de- sire... Let him, then, speedily begin his office. I shall fetch all things necessa- ry; for he is in haste to depart.” He smiled bitterly as he said these words, looking at the rabbi, and left the room, followed by the nurse. When Jochonan and the lady were a- lone, she turned in the bed towards him, and said— “Unhappy man that thou art! knowest thou where thou hast. been brought ?” “Ido,” said he, with a groan; “I know that lam in a city of the Mazikin.” “Know then, further,” said she,—and the tears gushed from eyes brighter than the diamond,—“ know then, further, that no one is ever brought here, unless he hath sinned before the Lord. hath been imports not tothee; and I seek not to know thine.

Who art thou woman, that speakest to me thus?” “Tama Hebrew woman,” said she, “the daughter of a doctor of the laws, in the | city of Bagdad ; and being brougnt hither, | it matters not how,] am married to a prince |among the Mazikin, even him who was | sent for thee.

Now, my husband though great among the Maz- ikin, is‘more just than the other demons ; and he loves me, whom he hath ruined, with a ‘love of despair. So he said, that the name of Jochonan the wise was fa- miliar unto him, and that he knew thou wouldst not. beble to refuse. What thou hast done, to give him power over thee, is known to thyself.” “I swear before heaven,” said the rabbi, “that I have ever diligently kept the law, traditions of our fathers, from the day of my youth upward. I have wronged no man in word or deed; and I~ have daily | worshipped the lord, minutely performing all the ceremonies thereto needful.” “Nay,” said the lady, “all this thou might- est have done, and more, and yet be in the power of the demons. But time passes ; for I hear the foot of my husband mount- ing the stair. There is one chance of thine escape.” , “What is that, O lady of beauty !” said the agonized rabbi. “ Eat not, drink not, nor take fee or re- ward while here; and as long as thou canst do thus, the Mazikin have no power over thee, dead or alive.

"The treasures of the kings of the earth would not | purchase one of the four-and-twenty vessels of | golden coins, which. were disposed in six rows | along the room. No wonder! for they were | filled by thé constant labors of the demons of ‘the mine.

But God enabled him to persevere. ‘These are thine,” saidthe demon; “ one of the-vessels which thou beholdest would make thee the richest of the sons of men; andI give | thee them all.” But Jochonan refysed again ; and the prince | of the Mazikin opened the door of a third cham- | ber, which was called the Hall of Diamonds. When the rabbi entered, he screamed aloud, and put his hands over his eyes; for the lustre of his jewels dazzled him, as if he had looked up- on the noonday sun. In vases of agate were diamonds beyond numeration, the smallest of | which was larger than a pigeon’s egg.

This was a sore trial on the rabbi; but he wns strengthened from above, and he refused again. “Thou knowest me, then, 1 perceive, O Jo- chonan, son of Ben-David,” said the prince of the Mazikin. ‘Tam a demon, who would tempt thee to de- struction.

On its filthy walls hung innamerable bunches of rusty keys, of all sizes, disposed without order. Among them, to the astonishment. of Jochonan, hung the keys of his own house, those which he had put to hide when he came on this misera- ble journey ; and he gazed upon them intently. “ What dost thou see,” said the demon, “that makes thee look so eagerly? Can he who has refused silver, and gold, and diamonds, be mov- ed by a paltry bunch of rusty iron ?” “ They-are mine ,own, my lord,” said the rabbi; “them will I take if they be offered me.” “Take them, then,” said the demon, putting | them intohis hand: “ thou mayest depart. But, | rabbi, open not thy house only, when thou re- turfiest to Cairo, but thy heart also. That thou didst not open it betore, was that which gave me power over thee. It was well that thou didst one act of charity in coming with me without re- ward ; for it-has been thy salvation. Be no more Rabbi Jochonan the miser.” The. rabbi bowed to the ground, and blessed the dyordefor his escape. _ “ But how,” said he, | “* an ? for I know not the way.” & thine eyes,” said the demon. He did so and, in the space of a moment, heard the voice of the princé-of the Mazikin ordering him to open them again. And, behold, when he opened them, he stood in the centre of-his own chamber, in his house at Cairo, withthe keys in his hand. = When he recovered. from his surprise, and had offered thanksgivings to God, he opened-his house, and his heart also... He gave alms tothe poor; he cheered the heart of the. widow, and lightened the destitution of the orphan...

THE FRONTIER WEST. A correspondent of the New York Jour- nal of Commerce gives an amusing de- scription of manners and doings on the remote frontier of the West. The intro- duction of.judicial authority and forms into the wilderness of Iowa somé years ago is illustrated by the following story: Iowa is now the finest frontier county in the wes‘, and is settling up very fast. Judge Williams related to me some amus- ing scenes that he witnessed, when. he first started on his circuit, for the purpose of organizing and holding his first courts among the rude frontier people. In-many counties they had not had time even to erect any kind of a shelter for a court house. The best’provision which could be made was to form seats of logs beneath the shade of a large tree, with a raised seat near its: body, for the Judge. . The sheriff would-open: court by mounting a stump, or mound, near by, and crying “Oh yes, oh yes,” &e. announcing to the whole universe that the court was then opened and inviting all whohad business to attend. The Clerk sat on a* block of wood, and used a shingle on -his knee for a desk. After the Grand Jury were empanineled, and charged by the-Judge, they were sent in care of:the Sheriff to a large hollow; or ravine, in which they could sit in’con- clave beyorid the view’ of the ‘court; ‘or spectators, ~A smaller hollow, or ravine, whe appropriated for the use of the Petit ury: The grass grew Very tall in the neigh- borhood, and if the jurymen lay down in a-ring in the grass, they. eould still mere perfectly exclude themselves i The Judge’ said that’ one p? them unobserved» They | that you havesueceeded ‘so ‘well in busi- | ness, and I suppose [she added. with. a} | ed. tor Troy.) ee always upon terms of intimacy, that we, ae day, after having charged the Graiid Jury’ and *dismi ‘them to their quarters in | ie Bp = CY os . 3 TED SSO 5 SPSS dames = , LV oO Pavel P i rofRenssalaer| ‘ they made the least resistance. .The re-, mainder of the posse only.escaped similar treatment by.a promise to leayethe town). ee at: forthwith, which they.did, feathering:. ap} The tarring and ppear to Lreturn= |} 2 ANS (sheet Wie Sa = s have been rather symbolic. than -reala-a}; 2% dab of tar, probably, on “the back, jandsa. few, feathers sprinkled: on it: According}. the, t. out the propriety of every tub standing on its own bottom, or: of the old genéral being too aged and weak.in the back to be the beast of bur- |. den his friends would. now, make him 3, but we could not help keeping up .a.ter- rible thinking on the Occasion ;. and when. we saw Young Hickory thundering earth-.|, after, our involuntary cry was, where Amos '—Ala, Journal, wits SPRING & SUMMER® FASHIONS ward, and Old Hickory come tn: IS * eM TAILORING ESTABLIHMENT!

The leading Locofocos of Ohio are al- ready The C of @ private letter from a prominent Lo- cofoco in Ohio, which speaks the real thoughts of the great body of the party, not only in Ohio, but throughout the Un- ion.

In 1831, this same Robert Dale Owen, of Indiana, preacher of atheism, Locofo- coism, and universal prostitution, wrote a letter to Mr, Bachelor from which the fol- lowing is extracted. Read it honest Loco- focos, and then loathe the impious author of it: I know not what the private opinions of those sturdy patriots were who in the old Philadelphia State house ap- pended their signatures to the immortal docement, But this I do know, that when they did so it was in defiance of the Bible—it was in direct violation the law of the New Testament. This I know, that in the Deity be the author of the Christian Scriptures, the -’ ~ers of the declaration resisted the law not of the King of England only, but of the God of Heaven. If a being who cannot lie penned the Bible, then George Washington and every Revolutionary soldier who drew the sword in the Republic's armies for liberty, ex- piate at this moment in hell fire the punishments of their ungodly strife! Then, too, John Hancock, and every f, . : : ’ ‘ | ticular case there was reason for an exception: and he | patriot whose name stands te America’s title deed, have was rejoiced to see that Mr. Polk had voluntarily made taken their place with the devil and his angels!

R. D. OWEN. The only apology we have for polluting our columns with such blasphemy is that the leaders of Locofocoism in Rentncky have invited him to this State to preac Locofocoism in public and atheism in pri- vate. Jt is an insult to the sentiment of | Christianity, which, far deeper than polit- ical convictions, we rejoice to believe an- 'imates a vast majority of our citizens. It | the State by bringing out such a leprous lasphemer as Pilcher fopthe second office | the insult offensive beyond all endurance | to import the most notorious blasphemer | in the nation to advocate the cause of such aman. Will the thunders of an outrag- 'ed and insulted community sleep when such men impiously defy their force ? After we had written thus far, Owen | made his appearance in this city, and, on | : | Saturday night made a speech to the Lo- | cofoco crowd, in which he endeavored to excite their prejudices against the Whigs | by represesenting our party as opposed to | foreigners. This slang became the low _ and dirty and infamous demagogue, | of which were foreigners, and knew that | his malicious misrepresentation of the | | Whigs could not be then and there refu- | IIe even dared to quote the “ father | ted, | of his country,” the illustrious Washing- 'ton. We wonder the name of Washing- | ton does not blister his impious tongue. We heard this same propagator of infidel- | Yeais ago, declare that George Washing- _ton was an infidel in religién. An old | gentleman present, whose veneration for | the character of that immortal man could not be suppressed, was so indignant that |it was with great difficulty he could be kept from assaulting the blasphemer of all that is sacred in heaven and earth. Yet Heaven and the purest patriots of our | country is invited by the Locofocos of Ken- | tucky to assist them to support their rotten cause! As bad as we think the Ww octrines of Locofocoism, they are infinitely better | than Owen’s doctrines, and, therefore, even | they are too pure for the lip of such an |unscrupulous and Heaven-daring infidel | as Robert Dale Owen. The Southern Convention. The Richmond Enquirer blows hot and cold | about the Southern Convention. In one co- lumn of his last paper he speaks of the “ hum- bug of Disunion,” and in another tells us that he has “ protested against the proposed South- érn Convention,” and reads a lecture to his South Carolina brethren on their “ impulsive ” conduct, and “ protests against the last proposi- tions which have been suggested in South Car- olina.” raph Wiig thank the Enquirer to let us w why he protested inst the proposed Southern Convention, if ibe disalon i, imputed to it, is a “humbug.” Proresrs are solemn acts and are not wasted on “ humbugs.” Again, if disunion is a “humbug,” why does the Enquirer read grave lectures to his South Carolina .triends, their -disunion senti- wee should | think the Enquirer éould find bet- o ter employment than that of fighting with shad. ows...

In: | ebste any domestie articles whatever.” [Thus, at. one. slap-dash, abandoning the whole Protective System after June, 1842.}, Mr. Webster’s MS, goes on to say, after stat- ing this clause in H. Clay’s hand-writing thus: “It may fairly, therefore, be claim- ed, that the great author of what is called the American System, himself; has, in the most direct manner, acceded to the prin- ciple, at least, that duties must be Jaid principally for revenue, and not for pro- tection alone. This is the leading princi- ple to which the faith of the nation has been solemnly pledged, and one from which it will never be safe for the gréat protected interests‘ themselves to depart.” Here then we have Daniel Webster himself appealing to the faith-of the na- tion against this. high protective Tariff— and, of course, against the act of ’42— and, coming forward as secret State’s ev- idence against Henry Clay, in Clay’s de- votion to the act of ’42. Here, too, we have Daniel Webster ta- king an active part, as Mr. Tyler’s Secre- tary of State, against Henry Clay in 1842 —and now going over to Clay, and rally- ‘ing even the Abolitionists to his support ! Strange things these ! * ¥ We shall publish the whole short article of the Madisonian on Tuesday. In the meantime, we copy one mofe statement from it—that when, last Spring, Mr. C. J. Ingersoll stated to the House of Repre- sentative, that Mr. Clay had once agreed to yield the whole principle of Protection —and that Mr. Clay accosted him when in Washington, last May, and pronounced the statement a “ falsehood,” and the one who had communicated to him the infor- mation, a “calumniator.” Now, says the | Madisonian, will Henry Clay pronounce | Daniel Webster a “ calumniator 1” If this developement prove any thing, jor injure any body, WHOM DOES IT INJURE? Henry Clay %ho was striv- | ing, by throwing oil on the waves in 1833, | at a period when. the wisest despaired of i the Union, to save the Union, or will it on- ly injure Mr. Webster who betrayed Mr. Clay’s confidence, and Mr. Wise, who be- trayed Mr. Webster’s 7 We see nothing in this matter, even tf it be true, (and that is yet a problem.) to affect Mr. Clay in the slightest degree, but much to exalt him. When the Union was menaced, and civil discord threaten- ed the land, he was willing to make great concessions of what he thought right and principle for peace sake. Who will un- dertake to say that Mr. Clay was not act- ing a patriot’s part in this? Deeply con- vinced, as he had long proclaimed himself to be, of the rectitude, the wisdom, and the patriotism of protection of home in- dustry, Mr. Clay was even willing to sa- crifice or suspend that principle, tor the sake of peace, harmony and. Union !}— There may be in this generous determina- tion something that the disunion wing of Polkery may not like, but’ we are mista- ken if the people at large will not admire and approve Mr. Clay more than ever, from this discovery, which the Madison- ian and Enquirer usher before them with so much fartical pomp and stage display. The truth is that Henry Cuay is the least understood of all men in, our Country by his opponents. He is vutra upon no subject: He has been, throughout his public life, the man who more than any other of our public men has been média- torial and moderate—often saving the Union and its peace by conciliation, never endangering either by his violence : Car- rying no budget of abstractions along Pa force at every hazard, of discord or of vio- lence: ever ready when emergencies oc- curred, threatening the peace of the coun- try, to interpose and save its peace and integrity. As far as Mr. Clay is struck at in this articlephe:has pronounced it rause if we understand aright, and whatever he sa¥s is fals@in the passages of party, has al- ways been verified in the end.

AARON BURR.” To Hon. Henry Cray em Mr. Clay “espoused the cause of a man,” who was then a traitor to his eountry— who was defeated in a: treasonous conspi: racy which. could not have. succeeded without demolishing all those institutions which had been established by the Rev- olation—and ‘who escaped the penalty of the gallows by the’ quirks of law and the’ ingenius subterfuges of counsel. General Andrew Jackson was most instrumental in breaking up that expedition and bring- ing its chief to trial, and it was in the matiner that Clay “espoused the cause “of Burr” that old Hickory was first induced to:distrust him.— Cincinnati Enquirer. No stealer of sheep, no robber of hen- roosts, no burner of haystacks was. ever. guilty of a meaner.and more contempti- ble trick than this. It is worthy of the rascal, who has perpetrated scores of for- geries in his editorial columns, and perpe- trates a new one every day. Although he commits no actual forgery upon Burr's letter, he italicises and comments upon it in a way intended to convey the impression that Mr. Clay’s espousal of Bur7r’s cause was neither more nor less than going into partnership with him in histreasonable conspiracy against the Un- ion. Now the editor of the Enquirer, bru- tally ignorant as he is upon most subjects, knows that Burr, in speaking-of Mr. Clay’s on of his cause, referred merely to r.

In the discussion at the Half-way House on the 27th ult., between Robert G: Scott and Joseph Segar, Esqrs., Mr. Scott, after exhibiting the Tariff act of 1842 in the blackest aspect, asked with an air of evi- dent exultation, “ What would be done with the immense revenue flowing into the Treasury from the present Tariff?” intimating that there would be ere long a surplus in the Treasury, which all good democrats deprecated—to which he might have added all good Whigs: Mr. Segar replied that this was a strange interroga- tory to be propounded by a Democrat, and that Mr. Scott and his friend blew hot and cold in the same breath. When the Ta- riff Law of ’42 was passed, the Demo- crats, Col. Polk in the number, swore by all the gods, that it was not a revenué, but a prohibitory and protective Tariff, and predicated that it would not bring in rev- enue enough to carry on the Government. This was the hue an cry against the Ta- riff of "42; and now when the disturbing causes had been removed, and the mea- _Sure was pouring into the Treasury a co- pious stream of revenue, it was asked— with him, which he was resolved to en- | apace an pens | what should be done with all this reven- ue? I will tell you, (said Mr. Segar,) what | we will do with it: After defraying the | expenses of an economical government, |we will appropriate the residue, to the payment of the public debt, which. has been entailed upon the country by the wasteful extravagance of a Democractic Administration. Your Party not only used up all the vast revenue‘from the ctfs- toms and public lands, but more than 30 millions of extra funds, and then left their Whig successors a large debt to pay, and nothing to pay it with. .

On the morning of the Election in Lou- isville, Kentucky, just as the polls were being opened, the Locos—the law loving party, made @ rash and attempted to take possession, of the Ballot Box, but the Whigs rallied and rescued it from the ruthless clutches of the Locos and triumphantly sustained the majesty of the law. On the second day of the election, an inflamma- tory and brutal appeal appeared in the German paper published in that city, ex- horting the Germans to arm themselves, “to place two prstols against onc,” to “use » the means which powder, lead and steel” might give them “against the incendiary natives,of which the whole Whig party of Louisville consists.” Can any good citizen lend his aid to a party that is willing to resort to such means to carry their point? To excite me portion of the people against another, in deadly conflict? To excite them to shoot and cut the throats of those who merely differ with them on political mat-— ters? We are loth for one moment to believe it, and we call upon all those who are friendly to a well regulated gov- tmment, all whose desire it is to see the majesty of the Jaw upheld throughout the tountry, to frown upon such base attempts. To discountenance by their votes, the men who thus attempt to excite others to do that which they themselves would not think of doing, and which they have not the herve to do. Who does not plainly see that the Loco- fo Disunionists have no hope of suc- teeding in the coming election by fair means? Who does not see that their on- ly hope of success is by using brute force’ And how many true blooded Americans, Whether adopted or native born are willing submit to such means ? : The Lecofocos call themselves Democrats, tad they say—yes, and so we are. But they “e-not entitled to the name: They do jijét Pectiee Democracy when they have any mo- te to-do otherwise: They say, let the ma- itity rule ; but they practice the very reverse. §y fraud and deception the designing. leaders Mage to circumvent or disappoint the. will of tjorities which happen to be unfavorable to heir interests. Witness the doings cf the Lo- téhco Convention lately held at Baltimore :— Martin Van Buren received, in the first ballot- beg, 26-votes over every other candidate, and Milks was not chosen as their candidate for tle Presidency! If the Locofoco party bad ben rave Democrats, Mr. Van Buren would MW occupy the’ position before the Country ho which Ezekiel Polk's grand-son has been fisted, He would have been the opponent of Hy Crar. But as supple a tool as had been Mr, Van Buren to his party, it seems. he SEM Mogether supple enough for. modern Se he Democracy, alias Locoroco- ; has heen sun over “ shed,” side, a Mr. #4 over J. + a i uty Pee G ofoco school of politics ; but Walker is of $ | that class, called in the North Barn-burn- ers aliag Ultra’ Radicals. ° A” propesition was made. 10, take ap oath to. sup- port the Constitution of the United States, and according to the best of their knowl- edge, faithfully to discharge the duties of members of the Convention,” which was voted down, as was also another, simply to take an oath tosupport the Constitution of + the United States—notwithstanding there are some members in the Conven- tion who are unnaturalized foreigners, Such is Locofocoism, Here is a Con- vention of the People of a sovereign State, refusing to take an oath to support the Constitution of their country—acting with- out the restraining influences of law— with a small majority of radzcals, ready and willing todo any thing to accomplish their unhallowed purposes. “What: need be expected from them but the overturn- ing of the whole system of Government of Louisiana, and placing in its stead a rot- ten and corrupt one, for the benefit of dem- agogues. Some of the Locofoco papers assert that whenever a surviving Tory of the Revolution is found, he is most certain, in every instance to belong to the Whig par- ty. Now, we should like to know from this patriotic party, whether Ezekiel Polk was a whig, and whether his grandson, James K. Polk is a whig’ Can any of the Locofoco leaders point out a whig that has ever voted against granting old toil- worn Revolutionary Soldiers a pension? We think not. James K. Polk; the Loco- foco candidate for the Presidency, and a descendant of an old Tory, voted against granting pensions to Revolutionary Sol- diers while a member of Congress. If this does not. savor pretty strong of Tory- ism, we don’t know what does. Letter from Mr. Frelinghuysen. We copy from the Memphis (Tenn.) Eagle, the following letter from Mr. Frevineuvysen, It is most explicit upon a point to which Gen’l Jackson very discourteously and unbecomingly alluded to in an electioneering letter some days since—speaking of Mr. Frerincuuysen “as the friend of abolitionism.” The Eagle says: The letter is addressed to Dr. Jos. G. Hall, of Hernando, Mississippi, in reply to one ad- dressed to Mr. Frettnemvysen, requesting his opinion on the question, inasmuch as his politi- cul adversaries were busily engaged in their usual avocation of falsehood, by boldly reitera- ting the slanderous assault of Gen. Jackson, charging Mr. Frevineuvuysen with being an abolitionist. We presume, however,’ that a portion of them at least will no longer traduce him on this subject—some of them, we are sat- isfied, will not cease their wicked work of de- famation, regardless of a}] truthful testimony, though it came from the tongues of angels : New York, June 11, 1844. Josrrn G. Hatt, Esq. Dear Sir : 1 received your kind favor, and thank you for the friendly interest you have ta- ken in this matter.

In Mr. Foorn’s speech at Millstone, N. J.,a few days since, he thus laid bare the character of modern Democracy, alias Locofocoism : And who are these gentlemen who, in these latter days, calls themselves so loudly “ Demo- crats,” “ friends of the people?” They are to be known rather by what they do, than by what they say, for “ actions speak louder than words.” We find them, then——"*- 1.

The follawing resolution offered by Mr. Cray was taken ng for consid- eration ; “ Resolved by the Senate and House of Re- presentatives, That a joint committee of both that public humiliation, prayer, and fasting to be observed by the peo- ple of the United States with religious solemni- and with fervent supplications to Almighty that he will be graciously pleased to con- tinue his blessings upon our country, and that he-will avert from it the Asiatic scourge which has reached our borders ; or'if, im the dispen. sation of his providence, we are not to be ex- 5 from the calimity, that through his boun- tiful mercy its severity may be mitigated and its duration shortened.” Mr. Tazewert asked for the yeas and nays. Mr. CLAY rose and observed that he had only one word te. express, The. resolution had not been submitted without consultation - with the members of the Senate whose opinion was entitled ta more respect than his own. It was indeed first suggested to him by a reverend member of the ateny, and, after deliberate con- sideration, he (Mr, Cray) thought the occasion fit for the recommendation of the religious cer- oy which the résolution contemplated. It was the practice of all Christian nations, in sea- sons of general and great calamity, to implore Divine mercy. Of all the pestilential scourges which had afflicted our race, the Asiatic cholera, in some of its characteristics, was the most re- markable. Should the resolution be adopted (said Mr. Cray) the act of the President, in conformity to its request, will be merely recommendatory. Voluntary as to all, it will be obligatory upon none. There seems to be a peculiar propriety, on the ground of uniformity, in the p measure. Already, in different parts of the Union, the clergy of several denominations have, it is believed, had their attention turned to the subject. Different days of prayer and humilia- tion will be probably recommended, It is desirable that the ble nation, on the same day, shal) present its united prayers and suppli- cations to the Throne of Mercy. And there can be but little doubt that, although there will be nothing coercive in the recommendation of the President, there will be general acquies- cence in it. ‘The measye will be grateful to all pious and to all moral men, whether mem- bers of religious communities or not. In times of national or individual distress, all who suffer feel an irresistible impulse to appeal to that Being who is alone able to afford adequate re- lief. I should have hesitated to present this reso- lution (said Mr. Cray) if it had been unsanc- tioned by precedent. But during the late war a similar resolution was adopted by Congress, at the instance of a member of the House of Representatives from Virginia, and President Madison issued his recommendation according- ly Z A single word, Mr. President, as to myself. I am a member of no religious sect. I am not a professor of rcligion. I regret that I am not. I wish that I was, and I trust that I shaJl be. But I have, and always have had, a profound re- spect for Christianity, the religion of my fathers, and for its rites,,its usages, its observances. Among these, that which is proposed in the res- olution before you has always commanded the respect of the good and devout. And { hope it will obtain the concurrence of the Senate. Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN said he inferred from the call of the yeas ‘and nays that this re- solution would be opposed, and he therefore de- sired again to refer the Senate to the precedent of 1814. The resolution at that time was in- duced by the state of war into which the coun- try had been plunged with Great Britain, and was offered by Mr. Clopton, of Virginia. ‘The preamble, which he read, laid it down as the duty of Congress to adopt measures of this cha- racter in times of “calamity and war.” The proposition had passed the Senate without any opposition. If in time of war it was the duty of the people to ask the special protection of God, and to supplicate the interposition of his mercy, how much more incumbent was it in reference to a scourge which had in its progress swept many millions of humari beings into eternity, which went abroad on the earth as the agent and minister of God to do his errand, and to come and go at his bidding, and oyer which hu- man power had no, influence. No occasion could be so fit and appropriate: for humiliation as this. He hoped that no constitutional objec- tion would be int to check this resolu- tion, which was nothing more than a recom. mendation. Jtwasour dlaty devoutly, and in the conviction of eur entire dependence on God, to ask for the interference of bis mercy; and he hoped that the present resolution would pass, as did the resolution of 1814. Tho resolution was adopted: Ye 13. On this resolution being taken upin of Représentatives, a few days aftér, viz: on the 5th of July, Mr. POLK voted virtually to reject the resolution hy voting to lay it on the table. ‘That motion having failed, by a vote of ayes46, again " in fe .

But as it was known that extraneous means had been made to bear upon this State; that her whole ‘extent of territory, from the Sea Shores to” the. Mountains, had béen flooded, from Wacenges. with, the lying and profane tracts of the ingrate, Kendall; with the equally mendacious speech of Dr. Duncan, and. divers other pamphlets surcharged with slanders foul, and false- hoods unblushing: when it was known, that a Senater of that State, at Raleigh, had taxed his ingenuity to-rival the most reckless of the manufacturers in the con- coction of scandal; and that. men: had been employed to-circulate these corrupt and corrupting masses of human wicked- ness, all honest, hearts will confess that Whig principles and Whig champions must be invulnerable, to come through such a contest, not only unscathed, but gloriously triumphant. Let the gratitude for the Whigs of North Carolina live in every Whig heart, and let their praise be on their lips; for of a truth, the Whigs of North Carolina are a glorious band of pa- triots. P What the Locofocos expected of North Carolina. The Globe and other locofoco papers affect to be gratified that their defeat in North Carolina has not been even more disastrous than it is. In 1842, when they lost the governor, they con. soled themselves wi.h having carried the Le- gislature ; like the man who, when suffering with the gout, returned thanks that it was not the stone, That same person was wont to con- sole himself when he had the stone that he had not the gout at the same time. It was. this-sort of consolation the locofocos had when they lost the governor in ’42, but elected the Legislature. Now, however, when they lose both—when they have the gout and stone at the same time, they adopt the Falstaff excuse and deny that hey ev- er had hopes of either. The following extracts from their leading paper in Virginia will show what truth is in their excuse : BEFORE THE ELECTION. From the Richmond Enquirer of July 16, 1844. Extract of a letter from one of the best in- formed republicans of North Carolina : Raeren, July 16, 1844. “Our cause is prospering. We are fully or- nized. We are in the midst of the canvass. The party is entirely united, and all our friends at their posts. Our prospects brighten daily, and [ hazard but little in expressing the most confident expectation of carrying the old North State.” AFTER THE ELECTION. From the Richmoud Enquirer of August 6, 1844. “ Some time before the election we received a letter from North Carolina which informed us there was great want of organization among the democrats. In several counties which we could have carried we had no candidates. Hence our loss in the legislature.” So, so! Before the election, when the party was sure of success, they were “fully organ- ized ;” but alter the election, when their defeat is ascertained, then the lament is put up that there was “ great‘want of organization!” In this way do these locofoco editors blow hot and cold, and hope to retain influence over the minds of their deceived followers. The facts is, as the Enquirer's Raleigh letter of July 16th says, the locofoco party were never so well organized as they were for the late elec- tion—they never had so personally strong a can- didate for governor, and were altogether confi- dent of success. . Patriot. The “Richmond Enquirer,” having become convinced of the treasonable designs of a few southern nullifiers, now unites with the Whig presses in protesting against their mad and ruinous course. Can it be possible that Mr. Ritchie has so long disbelieved the avowals of South Carolina chivalry ? Wonpzervit.—The Nashville “Union” has discovered that the precise spot of Col. Polk’s birth place, is within ten miles of where Gen. Jackson was born. Who will be so silly after this great dzs- kivery as to vote fom Henry Cray! Tribute of —There was a whig rally inChambers county, Ala.,on the Ist of the nt month, which went off in fine style.

The Senate is close, but our majority, we think, will-be- at least two in that body, and at worst a tie. ‘2 The.net whig gain at.this election, in 25 counties, (compared. with, the election in the same counties in 1843, when the Locos carried the State by a majority of 2,013,) is 1,362, Missourt.—The news from this State is ectly astounding to whigs and ‘locos. ith Polk for a leader, even Missouri, the Gibraltar of Lecofocoism, seems to be ca- ving under theirfeet, Such a demonstra- tion as has been made by the whigs there, was as unexpected as gratifying to their political friends. _The Missouri Reporter (Loce) of the 9th, says : “ The unofficial returns indicate that parties -will be nearly equal in the Legislature. _ If reports are to be re- lied on, the Whigs may have a majority in the House, and it is now evident that the anti-Benton majority may be 8 or 10 on joint ballot. - Already some 16 or 18 changes are reported, and 8 or 10-more will give ‘the Whigs a majority in the House. . Sixteen more would give them full command of the Legislature. ‘ The whigs had no candidate out for Governor or members of Congress, the- contest being between the Hardsand Softs. The great contest was for the Legislature, who will have to elect two U.S. Senators, which the whigs have nobly and suecess- fully contested in the Southern part of the State.

Oharlotte arose from the floor, and ‘en- countered with placidity the threats and abuse of those who surrounded her. Cer- tain members of the section, drawn to the scene by the spreading tumult, struck by her beauty, her courage, and the calm- ness with-which she avowed her action, interfered. to save her from brutal immo- lation, and conducted her to prison, where she continued to ‘confess all with the same tranquil assurance. ; The news of the assassination of Marat spread rapidly through Paris, and excited universal consternation, as well as grief and rage, so great was’the importance at this time:attached:to his public services. The act was instantly attributed by the popular voice to the: proscribed party of the Gironde, and made the’pretéext for: ex- cessive severity against such members of that party as'were in prison: so that what Charlette designed for a blow at Anarch- ists, only did harm to her own friends.— “Such,” says M Thiers, “will ever be the case in similar circumstances ; a party is proscribed, all are indignant; one of par- ticular ardor of nature, bursts out with a signal act of revenge, which is laid to.the account of the whole,. though nothing could obviously be less for their interests, as it invariably is employed to justify fur- ther séverities.”. The utmost honor.-was paid to the remains of the so called mar- tyr. The Jacobin. Club was inclined to demand for him a situation.in the Pan- theon, notwithstanding .a law which de- creed that great men should have stood the test of twenty years before obtaining such adistinetion. They joined to buy up the presses with which he printed his pa- per, The Friend of the People, that they might never fall into less worthy hands, but be employed, if possible, by some one who should write as zealously and as ably for the popular cause. His body lay in from a motive truly French, his visage “ The popular societies and sections*de- filed in. procession past his bier, ..strew- ing it with flowers. Each president pro- nounced an oration. The section of La Republique was the first to approach.— “ He is dead !” exclaimed its president }u- gubriously—‘ the friend of the people is dead, and by assassination! Let us waive all eulogy over his inanimate remains.— His eulogium is in his career, his writing, his gory wound, his death! » Scatter flow- ers over the pallid corpse of Marat, my countrywomen! Marat was our friend, he was the friend of the people; .it was for the people he lived, it was for the peo- ple he died.” At these words young mai- dens made the circuit of the bier, and threw fragrant flowers on. the body .of Marat. The orator resumed, “ But safti- cient are the lamentations; hear the migh- ty soul of Marat shaking off its bonds, and saying, Republicans, abstain from further weeping. The republican is permitted but all their sympathies. It was not I who was marked for assassination, but the re- public; it is not I who call for vengeance but the republic, the people, yourselves !” All the societies and all the sections came one after the other around the coffin in which the body of Marat lay extended; and if history record such scenes’ with some minuteness, it may teach men to re- flect on the influence of prepossession, and lead them to ponder seriously when. they mourn the mighty of this earth, or revile the unfortunate of their era. Meanwhile, the trial of the young mur- deress was expedited with that rapidity for which republican force of process were remarkable. Two deputies were impli- cated in the arrangement; the one, Du- perret, with whom she had no intercourse, and who had accompanied her to the min- ister of the interior; the other, Fatchet, late a bishop, previous suspécted on ac- count of his connection with the right side. and whom.a woman, insane or malignant, falsely asserted to Have seen in the galle- ries of the convention with the’ prisoner. __ Charlotte.

Never forget the words of Corneille, “ C’est le crimequi fait la honte, et n pas Pechafand.” {It is the crime which maketh the shame, and not the scaffold.} On the second day after the death ‘of Marat, (July 15,) Charlotte-was conduct- ed to the place.of execution in-front of the Tuilleries. . As she passed along she met the insults of the. meaner class of people with the modest firmness which never left her. The better class, affected by her self-devotion and fortitude, as well as “by her beauty, ‘beheld her in silence, some of them with tears. She mouhted the scaf- fold with a cheerful and even triumphant air, when contrary to the custom. of. the time not a voice was_ raised against, her.

What we know of the extravagant sen- timents which reigned at that time, could alone prepare us for an anecdote of a sin- gular nature connected with the death of Corday. A youngmannamed Adam Lux, a commissionary from Mayence, happen- ed to see Charlotte as she was passing to the scaffold. Her appearance produced in him that passion which is usually call- ed love atfirst sight. Entirely possessed by this feeling he became incapable of calm reflection and lost all sense of per- sonal fear. His feelings towards Charlotte were at the same time extended to everything in any way connected with her—even tothe guillotine by which she had suffered ;— which he now regarded as a sacred altar, on which the blood of royalty, beauty and virtue were offered up: He’ published a | pamphlet on the death of Charlotte, pro- one tear, after which their country claims | posing to erect amonument to her memo- ry With the inscription, ‘ Greater than Bru- tus, and ending with an invocation of her shade from the Elysian field, where he conceived it to be dwelling with her other illustrious victims of the Revolution.— There can be no doubt that the reason of this young man had been overturned by the excitement of the period. -But such considerations were not then admissable. He was quickly imprisoned, tried and ex- ecuted. Justice has since been done to both Ma- rat and his murderess. He is universally regarded as an execrable wretch, who stopped at-no cruelty in the way of ac- complishing his objects, and whom, no- ‘thing but an extraordinary. crisis in public affairs could have ever invested with any lic respect.” To Charlotte Corday has en awarded unmixed pity and admira- tion, ped ‘the more to be prized, that it isg smn despite of the natural horror felt at crime of assassination; and the reluctance of mankind to admit any thing »palliating it in one’ case may to Encourage it in another.

FREMONT’S EXPEDITION. —_— We find the’ following tiéti¢e of this expedi~_ tion, just returned to St. Louis, in the Daily M is- gourian 4 : . amy * The party, it will be remembered, left this city on the 18th ‘of May, 1843—very_ Nearly. fifteen months ago—and by the, latter pant of that month they had passed the western “boun- dary of Missouri and.launched.out into the Prai- ries. ; Leaving the frontiér in thé beginning of June, and travelling along the line of the Kansas riv- er, the party reached the Rocky Mountains ear- ly in July, and occupied that month in exploring the heads of the Arkansas. . At the close of the month they crossed the mountains, and, contin- uing their way to the westward, had _ reached the Great Salt Lake in the beginning of Sep- tember. No human being had ever before vis- ited the island of this celebrated Yake—and a few weeks were spent in exploring its unknown waters, and in sarveying the adjacent country. The latter part of this month found them at Fort Hall, where the winter set in early with’ a se- vere snow storin, on the 19th. —* Pursuing their ‘way to the Ofegon road, they reached the Falls of the Columbia early. in the month of November. Leaving bis party beré Mr. Fremont proceeded- by water to-Fort Vancov- }, ver, at which place he arrived at the commence- ment of the rainy season. On the 25th of No- vember, in a snow,storm, they left the “ Dalls.” én their homeward _ronte, intending to returitby way of the Klamet.and Mary’s Lake... -No-in- terruption in. théMorm of difficulties occurred to impede their tiarch ‘biti they ‘passed the.

The medical ‘at- 4, tendants were averse in this weak state, to wit- | ness the experiment; but he insisted. vpon’ it, | and the following is Dr. Cheyne’s account. | We al} three felt his pulse first; it was dis- | titict, though small and thready, and his heart | had its,asual beating: -’ He composed himself on‘his: back and: lay in a-still posture'some time ; | whilé I held his right handy Dr.» Baynard ‘laid | his hand on his heart, and-Mr. Skrine held a | eléanlooking-glass to:his-mouth I found his pulse sink gradually, till at last 1 could not: feel ‘any | by the most exact touch. Dr. Baynard could not feel the least emotion in his heart, nor Mr. | Skrine the }east soil of breath in the bright mir- | least symptoms of life in hin. We reasoned a | long time about this odd:appearance.as well as we could, and all of us judging it inexplicable and unaccountable, and finding he still’¢ontin- | ued imthat condition, we began to conclude that he had indeed carried thé experiment ‘foo far, and at last were satisfied he was actually dead, and .were just ready to leave him. This con- tinued about half an hour, by nine o’clock in the | | now in the situation which his morbid fancy | had so often presented to him, and the first part | | of his presentiment having come to pass, he felt | like a.doomed man, and seemed to wait the ful- | | filment of his destiny, which, he had persuaded | morning in autumn. As we were going away we observed some motion abeut the body, and upon examination found his pulse and the motion of his. heart gradually returning ; he began to breathe gent- ly and speak: softly ; we were.astonished to the last degree at'the unexpected’ change, and af- ter some further conversation with him and a- mong ourselves, went away fully satisfiedas to al] particulars of this fact, but confounded and puzzled and not able to fourm any rational scheme that might account for it. He afterwards call- ed for his attorney, added a codicil to his will, settled legacies on- his servants, received the about five or six o’clock that evening. His body Was examined, and all the viscera, with the ex- ‘Wately under the -spowy range of California. Me. Fremont determined to attempt to cross this, and to furce a way to the settlement on the Bay of San Francisco. The mountain is here one hundred and fifty miles broad, and, on, its upper régions, the. snow was from five to twenty feet They were occupied nearly a month in erogsing it, but finally succeeded, and early in March exchanged the snow of mid-winter for the verdure of perpetual spring, in the vaHey of the river Sacramento. The party were cordially received and hos- ably entertained, at his residence, near the y of San Francisco, by John A. Sutter, Esq., Prefect of the-frontier of California. ‘ Here they remained some time to recruit; and at the end of March resumed their homeward journey.— They proceeded several degrees to the south. ward to re-cross the mountains, and, passing oer the California deserts by the Span-Trace, reached Brent’s Fort, by the way of the head- waters of the Arkansas, on the first day of July, and the frontier of Missouri on the last of" the same month.” Peace—Another Specimen of War—The siege of SARAGOSSA, Saragossa, says Vaughan, possessed. very nder resources to sustain a siege. - Its forti- fications consisted mérely of mud walls ; it was destitute of heavy artillery, and without troops that could undertake sorties. “Phe Arragonese id whatthey could to place their troops in a state defence. ‘They tore down the awnings from their windows, and formed them into sacks, which they. filled with sand, and piled up before “frery gate in the form of a battery, digging Tound each of them a.deep trench. — The .Grenck invested the city. closely, and ti }wday passed without a sanguinary con- \ fict betweew the parties.

In the political contest now going on there are probably some on both sides who hésitate between their predilections for men‘and their devotion to abstract principles. Mr. Clay will no doubt reogive many votes, and stil! more good wishes, from those who are opposed to the ultra measures with which he and the major portion of the Whig party are accused of being identified. Many will vote for him on the ground thut it is better the Government should be ad- ministered by men of political and moral in- tegrity, though their political notions may be of doubtful expediency, than by men whose profes- sions of principles may be unexcéptionable, but upon whose practice no reliance can be placed. They will vote for him in the hope that, while the Executive branch of the Government is ad- ministered with ability and- integrity, a check will be found in the National Legislature against And this hope is strengthened by the assurance which Mr. Clay himself, has held out with, respect to the employment of the Veto power. Nothing, in fact, has contributed more to the than want of political integrity on the part of those who usurped and still claim the Jeader- Free Trade Misrepresentation Exposed. | ship of it.

It turns out that in some constitutions it has such an effect, ia others it creates bile,.-It-is said that the celebrated. Bol- ivar, whea he had injured the tone of his stom* ach, hy fatigue and privations, was unable to eat anything but sugar. In cases it is thought this diet would bring the person adopting it to the grave. One Glass of Liquor each Day, at six and one fourth cents, costs twenty-two. dollars and eighty-one cents a year. This amount would pay the insurance of three thousand dollars on a.man’s life.

THE CRY OF DISUNION. e portion of the democratic party of Leakey of sags to the Union, or har cay democrat in the State acts with'auy party which seeks to sever the bands of the’ Confederacy, is false, unfound- ed and calumnious:—N. C. Staudard. The Editor-of the Standard must have a most flexible conscience, or none at all: Is he not himself acting with the Disunion Party every day of his life? Does not every number of his paper show that he is acting with them ? The Disunionist claim Mr. Polk, as a man friendly to their peculiar views, . He is in favor of their most important measure, the annexation of Tex- as; and they also-claim-him ae a Freetrade man, and all his’ speeches*and votes hereto- fore, go to prove that they are justifiable in so doing. The” Editor of the’ Standard is acting with the Disunion party by supporting Mr. Polk, and by advocati the annexation of Texas, and ping against the, Tariff How. then, can he deny acting with the disunion party ? Will the dare to say that there i8 not such.a party inthis eountry?

When the Editor takes this step and shows to the.satisfaction of the world that he is sin- cere, he may ‘then with some sort of face deny for himself that he does not “act with any par- ty which seeks to sever the bands of the Con- fedetacy.” THE RECENT ELECTIONS. Oh! for a Réostér—a kingdom for a Rooster. Did we but havé orié we would place him at the head of this column, and there let hint crow and sing, and flap his wings and crow again :—LZynchburg Republican. . This isthe song of a Locofoco editor in Vir- ginia, ovér the élection returns from North Car- dina, Kentucky, Indiana, Alabama, Illinois and Missouri. One would very naturally conclude alter reading it, that the Whigs bad been routed horse, foot and dragoons; and that the Locos have fall and entire possession of every thing; But what is the fact ?.. Why, by the “skin of their teeth ” they have barely retained possession of Missouri, Alabama and Illinoie—States which 4 they always-carried by much larger majorities than they have this year. They are so glad that things havn’t tarned out no worse with them, that they are almost ready to split their shirts in hurraing and.shouting... ‘They remirid us of the woman who gave birth to a bastard-child, and Who; instantly after beholding it, fell into a fit _ ofthe most surprising and unaccountable langh- ster; Her friends, astonished at her conduct, asked her what on earth.she meant—what she Was laughing about, for surely it was no. laugh- ing matter, for on¢ to be in her fix. Oh! said the, “I’m so glad it aint a nigger!” . The Lo. cos are so glad it is no worse with them, that Cuax, who is himself a slaveholder, are us- ing all their ivors to liberate the ne- | groes of the South, despite the opposition of their owners. But such is not the fact. Nor are we. préparéd to say that all the Locofocds at the North are Abolitionists-— or that there are any among those of the South—or that their candidate for the Pre- sidency is one ;. but this we do say, there is as many among them as there are-in the Whig Party, and more rabid and thorough- going too, thanany Whig Abolitionist that we have ever heard of. Can any of the Locofoco champions. point their finger to a Northern or Western:Whig who has ev- er said he would sooner “see the throats of the slave owner cut, than render him any assistance in, subduing an insurrec- tion among .the Negroes”? Or that he “would disinherit his son if he should help the master in such contingency”? We believe not. Yet so spoke the Hon. Mr. Tappan, of Ohio, a leading Democratic Senator in Congress, and looked: upon as one of the wheel’ horses of the party in that State. , As further evidence in contradiction of the. base insinuation. against, the Whigs, we here annex two extracts from the Boston. Chronicle, the Editor of which is an Abolitionist and a Locofoco of the deep- est dye, charging every attempt upon the Whigs made at the North to put down Ab- olitionism, Hear him: “A meeting of the friends of the slaves was held the carly part.of the past week, at the steps of the Court House. One of the speakers, Rev. A. Brown, agent of the Abolition Society in this section, was offering some eloquent remarks, in the course of which it may be, that he talked rather too plainly, or it may be that a spark of abolitionism fell from his ue upon the great embodiment of Whiggery [alluding to Mr. Etay] and all are aware that when a spark does fall there it ignites and creates an explosion, be- cause of the combustible material of that char- acter. A large, ignorant blustering fellow foreed his way through the crowd, and took his station by the side of the speaker, and by screams and yells succeeded, probably to his instigators’ satisfaction, in breaking up the meeting.” Further on he says, “If whiggery and mobocracy ure about to unite and become identical, as the indications here and at Mon- tague seem to threaten, there is need the Lib- erty men stand firm.” At the North and West the supporters of Polk pretend to be friendly to the Abo- litionists, while here at the South where such doctrine is held in utter abhorrence, they leave nothing undone to make the ig- norant and unsuspecting believe that the Whigs are the courtiers of these abomina- ble and hypocritical) fanatics. But let us seé what this democratic advocate of negro freedom, has again to say for himself, and his hatred to Mr. Cuay, for the part he took in bringing about the Missouri Compromise of 1820—the Tariff Compromise of 1833, —hi$ speech in the Senate in 1839, and the reply to Mendenhall, of Indiana, &c. “The political managers, who have underta- ken to-get theelectoral vote of Massachusetts in favor of the author of the Missouri compro. mise of 1820, and the tariff compromise of 1833, and thé Senate Speech against abolitionism in 1839, the reply to Mendenhall in 1841, seem to have settled it in theirminds,” &c. Herea list of the crowning acts of Mr. Clay’s public life‘are held up by this victim of a wild fanati- cism, as so many terms of reproach toblast him in the estimation of his fellow-citizens, because they rebuke the fell spirit which possesses him. Another fact ‘we gather from this paper, which they can’t “help* rejoicing. They expected it “would be worse—like the poor woman—they _ tapectéd a nigger, but it aint quite so bad. * Captain Tyler—The Whigs Headed. ~ Captain Tyler has actually withdrawn ‘from the contest for the. next Presidency, ‘and has given’and bequeathed all his nu- _ merous friends and sapporters to James K. -Polk!: He-exhorts them’ most pathetical- : ly to go for Young Hickory!

This looks very muck like a union in- deed, between the. Whigs and Abolitiwn- zsts, for the purpose of defeating the Loco- foco candidate for the Presidency? Don’t it ? North Carolina suffers equally with South Carolina under the oppressive and abominable tariff law of 1842. N.C. Standard.

Besides these considerations we have other evidence in abundance, that a Na- tions! Bank is a far sArrr agent for the “éustody of the public money than the Sub- Treasury System.

In otir next we shall contimue the ex- wari ets of the: DEG canary System: 4 ENGLAND axpn EASTERN AFRICA. Ambitiqus England, after having push- ed her aggressions in India and elsewhere, to the utmost limits, is now turning her greedy exes upon Eastern Africa. ; And why? Perhaps the following paragraph from an article in the London Morning Chronicle, speculating upon the amount of English and India manufactures that | Southern Abyssinia would consume, may give the people of this region some idea as to her desires. “ The list of commodities, were we to give it comylete, would be a long one ; but we nay mention among the principal, the best coffee'in the world; some of which has long found its way into, this cbuntry, under, the «name of Mocha coffee ; myrrh and frankincense, with many. oth- er precious gums, abound in‘the kingdom of Adel ; and from the countries lying immediately to the’ west of it may be obtained an.inehaustible supply of ivory, hippo- potamus teeth, rhinocerous horns, ‘musk, civet,.ostrich feathers, and penther and leopard skins of the greatest beauty. Gold dust also, and gold in bars are brought | from the country of the Shangalla, while the neighboring | regions furnish the most costly spices. To Great Britain | however, there is not one of these articles which can be | considered of equal importance with the Cotton of Abys- | sinia, and the states lying immediateiy contiguous. This | may be regarded as the finest in the world, almost as | fine as silk, and producing fabrics scarcely less lustrous and delicate.” There it is—*the Cotfon’of Abyssinia !” For these many years, notwithstanding the United States have been the best mar- ket that the British manufacturers have had, has England been using every means, and trying every experiment, within ‘her | reach, to obtain a supply of raw cotton | without purchasing that grown in this |Country. She has spent thousands to per- | fect the cath of the long staple article in her India possessions, and is now urg- | ing onward the experiment. She has used | for her manufactories the cheap cotton | grown in other countries, whenever she | could obtain it, in preference to the poor- er qnalities grown in the United States. | Our finer cotton she could not do without; |tent required. But w ould England have | taken it, if she could have procured it Sens aeentece over which she exerted at }* controlling influehce? Let her. experi- iments in India and elsewhere answer: | and here let this plain hint about Abys | sinian cotton also be taken into conside- | ration. But whaf shall the cotton growers of | United States do to counteract thé move- |ménts of England? There is but one | way; and that is to create and cherish a | home market. If we can spin and weave | at home, then may our planters hold at defiance the efforts of the British to injure |them—but not otherwise. It is not for g | love of American planters that English | | manufacturers buy their cotton, but sim- ply because they cannot now do with- aut it. | Furthermore, in a few years, whether Texas becomes an integral part of our | territory.or not, she will throw off large quantities of cotton. » In either case, that | country would become’a’ formidablé rival | of the present cotton growing States ; but much the more injurious one, if atinexed. \If not‘annéxed, her cotton, Cannot comes into competition with ours in the ome arket, in consequence of the probibitory duty upon if, and therefore would.our 3 | Planters have the exclusive American | market to themselves, while the competi- | tion. of - Texas, woulkd.be no worse for them “abroad, being under: separate *govern~ ment, than .weuld be the ease if she were annexed to the mited State: nay. not so dangerous, as we could easily show, were that the object or present article. ein view,therefote, of all the premists | taking into consideration all the ‘efforts | of England to supply herself with cotton | )from other coutitries than ours—we hold | that the securing of a good home murket |. | fot theit cotton, is the only wise course to, ba rbusabied by. our. planters...

Now, if free traders, whether they live im the North or the South, the East or the West, would predicate their arguments upon facts and figures, and threw aside theories and abstractions, can it be. doubted that they would, yea, every man of them, concur avith us in the confident asser- tion that tariffs do not raise prices.of goods, for- eign or domestic ; but that tariffs do actually raise the prices of all the products of the soil, and atthe same time give employment in.many branches of industry, to thpse who have no. svil to cultivate ? There are such small quantities of grain and flour exported to Great Britain that they are scarcely worth speaking of; but of the latter sax,another.word. For the last. year the price of flour in this country, on the‘sea- board, averaged from fourdollars and fifty cents to five dollars, whilst shipments to England have not generally netted more thaa about three dol. lars and. fifty cents, and tholast quotation (nine- teen shillings) netts only about three dollars per barrel. The recapitulation of all these truths shows, conclusively, that the Tariff of 1842. is benefi- cial to the whole country.—Nat. . Inielligencer. Annexation tn Georgia. We find in a Columbia (S. C.) paper the fol- lowing incident, embodied in a description of oratory of Col. Toombs, of Georgia, as exerted at the late grand Whig Convention at Madison, in that State—which, be it remembeiéd, was to have been carried triumphantly for the Polko- disunionists by the rabidity of the Texas feyer.

In our Jast we adverted to this subject, and since then, the following extract of a letter from a.gentleman.ot Tennessce, in answer to one from a Philadelpbian, enquiring whether Jas. K. Poxx, the Locofoco candidate for the Presi- dency, is a-slaveholder or not, has come to hand’: showing conclusively that the Locofocos yes, these unpolluted “ Democrats” and al- liés of the Squth—have been, and are now us- ing every mean in*their power to get the sup- port of the Abolitionists. They begin to sce it ‘plainly, that there is no chance for the election of their. make-shift. candidate, without timely aid is received from some quarter ; and sufficiently atcounts for their circulating the report in the Free States, that Pork is not a slaveholder, when they knew perfectly. well at the time, it was false, A party that resorts to such mean tricks—-that does not hesitate to tell such bare- fated lies to prop a sinking dnd rotten cause, deserve not the countenance of honest men. How can Southern men support such a time- fetving ‘Politician, as James K. Pork? How tan they risk the destinies of their country in the hands of men so devoid of every principle bordering on: honesty—men who make it con- Tenient to suit themselves for every latitude for he sake of gaining the votes of the different sec- tions of the country=-we cannot for our lives ‘itiigine. But it is nevertheless so. Here the extract Bla reply to your enquiries as to whether Mr. Polk is Vilaveholder, I am informed that ten or twelve years ago ished, in company with his brother-in-law, Cald- wl, & Negro quarter in Ygllabusha County, Mississippi, ‘dear Grenada ;.afterward be bought his brother-in-law ‘@tjund has near ene hundred souls on his cotton planta- Won there, whom, in consequence of his being so immers- in polities, he has seen but once in fou, years, and s them to the tender mercies of the overseer,” there. was nothin . - ng else against Mr. Pox, jim un fi the Presidential chair, is cringing-and knuckling to such a contemp- mf Ought to consign him to ever- retirement, at least, ‘in the estimation ‘of men, as well as of the right thinking 0 of all parties of the Free States.

These premises and conclusions we think the editor will admit to be correct. Then, in Franée, nor of parents belonging to either, it cannot’ be that heis either'a Chinese or a Frenchman. And as the latter case is precise- ly analagous, surely the editor will not hesitate to admit that the reason why the Democrats did not.carry .the Old North.was simply because they were not sirong enough ! _ Do you give it up, Mr. Republican ? But in truth the Republican is deeply in er- ror when it intimates that North Carolina was lost to the Locofocos through a want of activity and well organization, on the part of themselves. Their own declarations previous to the election justify us in this assertion, even though we had no other grounds for it. But it is a well known fact that they enjoyed all the advantages of or- ganization, and that they were never more ac- tive in their efforts. And, we must say further, that we believe they were never more unscru- pulous in their selection and use of means to carry the State. itself about North Carolina: She is just as sure to give HENRY CLAY a large majority in November, as South Carolina is a Polk, Tex- as and Disunion State: Just as certain as Tennessee twice rejected Polk as Governor ; and as the well known fact that he is a party hack—the pitiful tool of Andrew Jackson, 0G The Whigs of the Counties of Burke, Caldwell and McDowell, (compo- sing. what was formerly the county of Barke,) “ have resolved to meet together once more in Council, to revive the political associations.of theirCounty.” They have appointed a Mass Meeting to take place on the 18th and 19th of October, at Mor- ganton ; and are making preparations for ing.

To discharge persons from arrest upon civil or criminal process frommeny ¢ourtof the State, by writs of habeas Corpus ema- nating from the City Council. And they passed an ordnance prohibit- ing any’civil officer to-serve process from the State Courts in Nauvoo, unless it was cotintersigned by their Mayor, under pen- alty of fine and imprisonment, which the Governor of the State is forbidden to re- mit by his pardon! But, not to fatigue your readers with further enumerations, [ will proceed breifly to relate the facts which led to the rest. , Certain seeeding. Mormons, for reasons satisfactory to themselves, disavowed the authority of their late master a few weeks ago, and set up a newspaper in Nauyoo, which was designed to expose his hypoc- risy and vices. .The Prophet, in his ca- pacity as Mayor, called together the City Council, and took into consideration this enterprise of the seceders, and the: first number of the paper which had then been published... It was resolved by the City Council and the Mayor that the paper qgas a public nuisance, and ought to be-abated, and forthwith a warrant was issued to the City Marshal to take a suflicient force with him and todestroy the press and type. That officer obeyed, his. instructions, and on the same. day, by force, broke into the office, broke up the press, and scattered the type into the street. One of the proprietors of the press went immediately to Carthage, the county seat, and complained on oath against the May- or, the City Council, the Marshal, and others concerned, for a riot-in the destruc- tion of his press: Upon his affidavit a Warrant*was issued to a constable, who wént to’serve it, attended by only one in- dividual. . He served it first upon the two Smiths; and afterwards upow the others. Thé ‘Prophet at first tried threats and in- timidation against the constable, swore gréatoaths that’ he wouldlose: the last drop of’ his blood«rather than go to Car failing habeas corpus. ‘He issued writs for the other ‘defendants ;/some of them (be- with the” assurance that, whether. they were discharged or not, he should never «/ The tonstable reported to his fellow- citizens in other parts of the county the fesistance which he had. met with, and on them for a force sufficient to him to execute. the writ.

But there is reason'to believe, from the course of events,’ that such a result, might. not have taken.place.but for one or two, un- lucky circumstances. The Governor had ordered the troops at Warsaw and Carth- age to rendezvous on Thursday, the 27th June; at Golden’s Point, and tomareh up- on Nauvoo.» His object Ido notzknow, but J, presume it was to make.a display of force ta the Mormons, and to, convince them of their incapacity to resist the arms of the State. On the morning of that day, however, apprehending disturbances if he marehed:so large a force into the aity; he ordered all the troops to be, disbanded, with the exception of some 200 men, part of whom were in. Nauvoo and a part in Carthage. With one company of these he set out himself for Nauvoo. Upon the same day an attempt: was de- teeted to conyey-into the jail a bundle containing clothes, which were evidently intended to disguise..the prisoners; and the report became general that a rescue and escape was ¢ontemiplated.. Doubtless | the disbanding pf ‘the -troops was also urged as a proof of the Governor's. conni- vance at it. ..These were topics, well cal- culated to inflame the minds of men, al- ready strongly excited by the annoyance and tyranny of the Mormon rulers, and the recent expectation of actual hostilities. | They produced a most unfortunate-effect. | A body of armed men marched hastily upon the jail, overpowered the guard, and put to death the two Smiths, and in that act inflicted a deep wound upon the hon- or of the State, and wrought a lasting in- | jury to all who were opposed to the Mor- mon dynasty.” NOTICE.” HE subscriber now offers for sale his plantation ly- ing onthe waters of Fourth creek, one’ inile ‘north of Third creek.church, and 15 miles west of, Selisbury, containing upwards of FOUR HUNDRED ACRES, Upon which there is a splendid set of MILLS, consisting of GRIST: MILES, SAW MILL and WOOL CARD.- ING MACHINE, alin operation ; with a stream sufficient at any season ofthe’year. ‘The same is éituated in the heart-of'a-rich and tlourisaing neighborhood, and doubtless is not.inferi- or to any standin the county.

Captain McDon- ald stated that on, the 24th July, at 2, P.

They) were ‘thus left to the mercy of the winds and waves, without’ provisions or water, or-even an oar to guide the boat. Part of the thwart was broken up and made use of to steer with, and the boat was kept before the lining and foot boards were taken off and converted into a mast, on which was spread the Captain’s, shirt for a sail. The boat was then steered to the southward, in hopes of falling in with the land, In the afternoon a bark. was seen to the west- ward, steering directly towards them, and when about two-miles off hove to for a short time, and hauled southerly, for about half an hour, and before sunset she again steered’ to the westward. On the 25th, boat’s course was altered to the westwar@ | before the sea, with the hope of falling in with some. vessel. .From this time. to, the ward, and the beat was steered westerly. On this day, for, the fitst time, it rained about two honrs, and by using two pair of shoes, Which Were ‘dll they had, and rit¥ing their clothes, they sucéeed in get- ting about half a pint of water each— Fron this:day to the 31st they continued | without> seeing ‘any vessel, and without water, but on that and the day following it rained three orfour hours, and sufficient water was obtained to quench their thirst for the time. From this time so the 6th of August the wind was from the S. E., and thé boat’s course was to the Nv West. No Water was obtained daring this'time, and their’ sufferings were very “great.— On one of: these days a piéce of bamboo | was picked up, and found to contain four | small fishes, about two inches long, which were divided among the unfortunate. suf- | ferers, being the only article of food they | had: while in the boat.

The castle is qn a lofty promontory over- hanging the Esk, and separated from the main land by a chasm cut through the rock—the space being spanned by a high bridge. The origin of the castle is in- volved in obscurity. The walls are of tremendous thickness, and the lower tier of them is in part rock excavation. In| 1650, the place surrendered to Gen. Monk. The chapel near by, is still in almost per- fect preservation. It is very elaborately de- | corated with carving, and is of the florid | Gothic of the 15th century.

The Steamship Hibernia arrived at Boston on the Ist instant in twelve days from Liver- pool, bringing papers up to the 20th ultimo, and from London to the evening of the 19th. The most important item of intelligence | which we find in the papers is an account of the rumored occupation of Tangiers by the French. It is thus announced in a Paris jour- nal called “ The Patrie,” issued on the evening of Saturday, the 17th ultimo : “ Rumors of the highest importance were cir- culated to-day at the Bourse. It was said that the Prince De Joinville had landed, and taken possession of Tangiers, where the tri-colored flag is waving at this present moment. It was added that the English Consul had immediate- ly protested against this measure. “The complication of these events—the strange silence on the part of Government—all | this has caused a real panic, which has produced a considerable fall in the prices. of public secu. | rities, as it will be seen in our report below that | the Three per Cents fell 75 centimes and the | | Fives 1f. 10c. these.

Some exaggeration there may be in these rumors ; but public anxiety is extreme, and for the Govern- ment to remain silent longer would be an un- pardonable fault.” It appears by a telegraphic despatch from the Prince De Joinville that on the 4th of August a reply was received from the Emperor of Mo- rocco to the ultimatum of M. De Nyon, the French Minister, which was not of a nature to be accepted ; in consequence of which, on the the morning of the 6th, the Prince attacked the fortificatious of Tangiers. Eighty picces of artillery returned the fire. In about an hour the fire of the Moors was silenced, and their bat- teries dismantled. The French loss is said to | be trifling, and the injury sustained by them of little account. The quarter of the town inha- bited by the European Consuls was respected.

Now is the accepted time to root out this per- nicious heresy from the soil of Carolina, now and forever.

In the van of this fight for the preservation of the Union, we are happy to find that Statesman whose familiar name, on all questions in South Carolina, is itself legion. To go forth to battle under his auspices is to have assurance of moral victory.. We are not alarmists—We do not think that extreme counsels can prevail—that the integrity of the Union can be yet endangered ; but we owe to ourselves to remove the im- pression, which is spreading abroad, that South Carolina is deeply tainted by disu- nion doctrines.

For this purpose they will hold a Mass Meeting at Morganton, on the 18th and 19th of October, when it is expected that many of the distinguished Gentlemen of address the people upon all thé -interest- ing political questions of the day. It is hoped every good Whig in the State will consider himself invited to attend, and that the citizens of the adjacent coun- ties of Ashe, Wilkes, Iredell, Catawba, Lincoln, Cleaveland, Rutherford, Bun- combe and Yancy, will not feel that they have done'their duty by sending mere del- egations. from each, but. will come by neighborhoods and in masses. It is proposed to fit up a large camp ground in the. vicinity of Morganton, con-| venient to water, wood, &c..&c,. so that those who prefer coming in messes and | peal not only to their fraternal feelings but patriotism.

N of the Secretary.ofthe-freasury: in-1830, it is fair to estimate.that-on am ayerge, | there have been about $20,000,000 in the treasufy.

But by the Sab-Treasury bill it is to be collected in gold and silver and locked up in iron safes. It is to be drawn entire- ly from circulation and to be rendered as perfectly useless, for all purposes of busi- ness, as if it were notin being. Now the best estimates that have been made show that there are about $60,000,000,in gold and silver, in circulation in the United States: and about half of this is held by banks and made by them the basis for issues to the amount of about $100,000,000. The whole circulation of the country, therefore, may be fairly estimated at 130,000,000. This circulation is not too large for the business and other demands of the country. But the Sub-Treasury bill proposes to with- draw entirely from use $20,000,000, or one-third of all the specie in the country. This will leave $40,000,000. of specie to take the place of $60,000,000 now in use. Certainly not more than half of this or $20,000,000 will be held by the banks as the basis of theirissues: and, if the sound and safe proportion between .their circu- culation and the amount of specie in their vaults, be observed, they cannot issue up- on this basis more than $65,000,000: and this, as is already seen will reduce the cir- culating medium from -$130,000,000 to $85,000,000. As anecessary consequence, therefore, of the Sub-Treasury System, ,all the business of the country must be trans- acted with a circulation of less than nine- ty millions of dollars. The legitimate ef- fect of such a system, its natural opera- tion, will be to conrracr the Currency at least one-third. 8. Tue Sus-Treasury System, wHiLe iT AUGMENTS THE SALARIES OF OFFICE HOLDERS, REDUCES THE Waces or Lasor. An office holder receives his salary in gold and sil- ver; and this will always be at a premi- um. Benton has drawn his $8 a day in gold, and immediately sold it to brokers at an advance, so that he actually received something like $8,50 per day instead of the $8 which the law allows him. Mr. Webster, in one of his speeches, (Vol 3, p- 486,) mentions a similar and still more striking fact. A contractor came to Wash- ington and received a draft of $180,000 on a specie paying bank in New York. This he immediately sold at 10 per cent premium, thus receiving in fact $181,800, while he paid off his workmen in Western funds. In this way the salaries of. all the office-holders would be largely increased. ‘But what cffect would the contraction of the eurrency, which the Sub-Treasury would effect, have upon Labouring Men? The price which any man can pay for whatever he has to buy, will depend up- on how much he has to pay with. If he has in the course of a year, $10,000 in money, he can certainly pay more than if he natural effect of a contraction of the currency is, there- fore, necessarily, to reduce the prices of he only -had $5,000. everything. This must be evident to eve- ry one, and it is distinctly and clearly stat- ed» by Senator Buchanan, of Pa.,-in~a speech he made on the Sub-Treasury bill, in 1839, in reply to Mr.Clay. Hesaid:— “On Friday last, when very unexpect- edly addressed the Senate, J stated.a prin- ciple of politieal economy whieh I shall It is this :—That now réad from the book: if you double the amount of ‘the necessa- ry circulating medium in any country, you thereby double the nominal! price of every article; if when the circulating medium is fifty millions, an article should cost one dollar,.it Would Gost two if without any increase of the uses of a circulating me- diam, the quantity should be increased to an hundred ‘millions.

The cartman who earns $12 per week would earn $8. The laboring men of America would thus lose ONE THIRD of: their present earnings, through the centraction of the currency which would follow the adoption of the Sub Treasury; and this is proved to a demonstration by the principle quoted from Mr. Buchanan. The .Loco Focos, when these truths are pressed upon them, say, that it is true the wages of Jabor are reduced by the Sub Treasury ;;.but. that the price,of other articles, which the la- borers have To suy, is reducedvalso; so that the result is the same, for this reason : that the price of everything which the la- borer has fo sell, namely} his Lasér., is per- manently reduced; while of the many things which he has to buy, somé such’ as coffee, tea, sugar, spices, &e. &e., being foreign productions, and therefore notaf- fected by our legislation, are not brought down in proportion ; and the price of the other articles which he buys, such as pork, beef, flour, &c., may at any time rise by the failure of the crops, &c. while his la- bor does not rise with it. When labor is high, on the other Land, he is-always safe, for he can always buy what he needs whe- ther the price be high or low. The only system, therefore, upon which he can rely for the permanent proteetion and defence of his interests is one which will keep up the wages of labor.. With such a system he is safe—even if the price of the arti- cles which he has to buy should rise, in consequence of a failure of crops, an in- creased demand or any other cause, his wages will be sufficient to meet the emer- gency. If the price of these articles, on the other hand, remain low, he lays up a surplus from his earning... In any event, he is safe. Th ges which will sometimes affect the gen- eral business of the countrywill not be felt by him. If wages are low, on the other hand, he must always remain at the foot of the ladder. When produce is low, as well as his labor. he can barely live ; but when produce rises, as it is always lia- ble to rise, his wages do not rise With it. A war in Europe, the failure of a crop, a weeks drought, the opening of a new mar- ket, or any one of a thousand, contingen- cies, will at once increase the price he will have to pay for every thing he has to buy, under the contraction of the ¢urrency caused by the Sub Treasury System, the wages of his labor, the only thing he has to sell, will be kept down to the lowest point and subject to no variation above it. These are considerations which should the American people. They embrace ob- jections of the most overwhelming.impor- tance to the Sub Treasury Systgm, and if properly weighed and appreciated would crush the authors and .sapporters of that scheme of. ruin beneath: the. just-weight of public indignation. We_shall recur'to the examination of, this feattire ‘of the Sub Treasury system in our next. “ rst) Comuets.—Iin Dr. Lardner’s Lectaté-on Com: ets he announced that, according to the calcu- lation of Arago, our system ié visited regularly by 7,500,000 comets. “The French astronomer has by actual obsérvation ascertained that with- in the orbit of Mercury thirty comets regularly have their perihelion—that is, have their near- est turning point'to the stn; and the same is true of any other equal damount‘of space ia any part of the solar system.

The Whigs of Rowan propose to bold a Mass Meeting at Salisbury, on Satur- day the 21st instant, .(it- being Saturday of our Superior Court.) Several distin- guished speakers are’expected to be pre- sent and to address the meeting. Those living at a distance from Town, would do well.to be on the ground in season, as the Speaking will probably commence as ear- ly as ten o’clock. By order of the Clay Club. September 7, 1844. It is important that the Whigs of Rowan make a general turn out and attend the meeting which is here proposed to be held on the 2ist:instant.. It is important to each individual Whig, because he will be certain to hear some good talking by the Speakers, and because he will feel a con- solation in having met with his political frierids and renewed with them his pledges to stand by the Country and her institutions in opposition to the wreckless disunion fanatics of South Carolina, and in oppo- sition to the erroneous views and princi- ples of the Locofoco Party generally. Ev- ery one who is opposed to the severance of the National Union; every one who is opposed to the payment of the enor- mous Public Debts of Texas, and to a dishonorable annexation of that Country to the United States; every one who is opposed to crushing to the earth Ameri- can industry and substituting in its place, the. industry and labor of Great Britian ; every one who is opposed to James K. Polk for President, a man of no extraordin- ary pretensions whatever,—and who isin favor of Henry Clay,—the Country’s pride —a National Bank in preference to the Sub-Treasury, a fair and equitable distri- bution of the proceeds of the Public Lands, a Tariff for Revenue and incidental pro- tection, and an economical and fair ad- Lministrationof the Government, should, by all means attend, and exert all the pow- er and influence he may possess to accom- plish the triumphant success of his favorite policy, and the downfall of its opposite. An attendance at the public meetings which are appointed for the purpose of mutually stirring up and enlightening our political friends, should not be neglected. We sincerely hope, therefore, that every Whig in the County will be here on the 21st, and lend his influence towards arousing the Whig spirit of 1840, and thus prepare to defend, with proper zeal, the. great princi- ples of National policy entertained by the Whig family. (- From all parts of the country, we contin- ue to receive by every mail, the most cheering news as to the prospects of the Whig cause. The People seem 'to have taken the matter into their own hands, with a determination never before witnessed, in favor of the Whig Candi- dates for President and Vice President. And | with proper efforts, we can’t help carrying the day by an overwhelming majority. _AJl candid men begin. to’see and confess, that in Mr. Cray and the measures.advocated’by him, they have every thing that is desirable tomake the nation happy and prosperous—that-his name is asso- ciated with every prominent measure which has been before the country for the last forty years. All know that whenever the country became en- tangled in any difficulty, the eyes of ‘all were at once turned to HENRY CLAY as the man who was able to extricate it’ from impending destruction—and the People now see and feel it sensibly, that he is the man to deliver them from the miserable and{ mili condition in which the Locofvco Jacobins, under the beguiling cry of democracy, has ‘plunged it; and thereforé, they are bent'on electing him to the Presidency, But while we are confident of success, let not a single Whig neglect to do his duty, but let ev. ery one be up and duing—let each Whig in the country considet himself aijcommittee, and go to work as ifthe salvation of the country depend- ed upon him, and cease not his cxertions until | ber judgment, which policy is bést caleu-” lated to promote their own interests -and | |those of the country.

In the years when the rateof duties up- on all imported articles ranged at twenty per cent.,it is well known not-.only the foreign importations so far.-eeceeded the exports as te create a ruinous balance of trdde against us, but that owing to the low duties, in. addition to the usual foreign cles made by mechanical labor began al- so to be imported, and that. kind of busi- ness was increasing so rapidly: that had it not been stopped by the tariff of 1842, it would soon have proved a vast injury, if” not utterly ruinous, to a large portion of, American mechanics. Hardly aship came from England that did not bring as a por- tion of her cargo, a large quantity of Lon- don made hats; French cabinet furniture began also to come almost by the cargo ; but among the chief mechanical articles were French boots and shoes, and ready made clothing. All who had occasion to visit our large cities in those times could see in eve quarter signs up, showing a iy filled with French. boots and shoes, and the. ready. made clothing brought from London could almost be found as easily. But we wish to call the attention of shoemakers and tailors, especially journeymen,totwo sim- ple facts, which we~noticed particularly at the time. A single ship that @rrived in the spring of 1842, before the Whig tariff was passed, brought sixteen thousand pair of Paris made boots “and ‘shoes, which were at once thrown into our markets. It was also stated by the city papers, at a- bout the same time, when orders were constantly going to England for ready made clothing, that by the steamship Great Western, in one trip, there were sent measures to London for twelve hun- dred full suits of clothes, to be made to order for New York and Philadelphia. By the boots and shoes brought in the single cargo here mentioned, American journeymen shoemakers were directly de- prived of patronage to the amount of at least $15,000, and more probably of 25,- 000, all of which was as so much cash taken directly from their pockets. And in reference to the clothes ordered in one trip by the Great Western, the journey- men tailors, to say nothing of their em- ployers, were in like manner sufferers di- rectly from their pockets in the loss of so much work, to the amount of at least fif- teen thousand dollars cash, for the making of the 1,200 coats alone would have a- mounted to 3,600 dollars. All. this, let it be understood, was lost to American jour- neymen shoemakers and_ tailors, in but two instances, without. reference to the hundreds of others of similar character, in the importation of ready made cloth- ing, hats, cabinet furniture, &c., to fill the shops in our large cities. Now we wish our working men of all classes, many of whom are doubtless still acting with the Locofoco party, would consider these facts well, and then; with- out reference ‘to past preferences or pre- judices as'to men, conclade, deliberately, according to the-dictates of their own'so- like that of the drrival of 1,600 pair of | French boots and shoes in one eargo, is Werth more to enable them to .reach a tailor when he finds he’ is discharged, and himself.and. family. suffering through his want of employment, anid because the ar- tlcles upon which he works are made in can possibly make a decent living, does not want to read ten columns about “ De- mocracy,’ ‘ poor men’s rights, and‘ bank,’ and so on, to understand his position.

Who is plun- dered by such a Jaw + It is an admitted ‘fact, that the Federal Government was a trustee of the public lands ce- ded by the old States for the purpose of -quidating the debts contracted’ during the revolutionary war: And as all these debts have been discharged, the balance of the funds must rightfully belong ta some person other than the trustee: It is contrary to the spirit of the common law that @ man should be trustee for his own benefit, or that the very idea of a trast is contradicted in a man’s taking to his own-use that-which was entrusted to him for the use and benefit of another person. Therefore, the same process of logic that converts the Distribution Law into an-act’of plunder, would make the performance of the trust a plundering also ; when restoring to the right own- er that which belongs.to him is characterised by the odi- ous name of plundering, all distinction either moral or physical is lost between right and the wrong, at the same time obstinately pursued. Another expletive. Corrupt National Bank. -.It would seem that there could be no ob- jection raised to a Nationa] Bank, without the prefixed qualification of corrupt, and the question may be fairly demanded, by what authority is this character prefixed to another National Bank? Will it be answered that a former. Bank was corrupt and a future one must necessa- rily beso? Such running in a circle, confounding cause and ‘éffect is very unsound logic, and is parallel only with such a proposition as the following: Gen. Jackson, M. Van Buren and John Tyler, Presidents of the United States were all corrupt men, administered the Govern- ment corruptly, therefore another President must neces- sarily be corrupt like them or one of them, and. we are opposed to having any other President or any future Go- vernment. In this short hand manner, we shall soon be able to set aside all the rules of civilized society, and ar- rive at that state: of perfect freedom, enjoyed by our neighbors the Comanche Indians or their contemporary Buffaloes of the wide prairies, But speaking by the card. The true loco must be opposed to the first breach of the constitution, in attempting to destroy the veto power.— Does the magic of ’98 consecrate and establish the veto power asso much more holy and sacred than any other a proposition to restrain and modify it? Or is it not the repeated abuse of this same power that has rendered it so very sacred in the view of those partizans now clamoring so zealously for its protection and unrestricted use? If 1798, it-was denounced as the great sin. of Federalism, that it sought to strengthen the Executive power of this Government, and make it to overrule the Legislative power ; and the sedition law of that period was pointed out as an alarming step toward that object. And now it is a truly republican democratic theory and practice, to make the Executive Veto power supersede the Legisla- tive power entirely. Opposed to'a reform of the constitution in one partic- ular,-while constitutional reform in general at the No- vember election, is the avowed object of the publishers of this card, who are either afraid or ashamed to show their names or personally avow their object or opinions, other- wise than as gummed up by the Nashville Union, “ op- posed to every thing the Whigs are in favor of.” —_Z. by Bartlett Shipp, Esq.

From various signs in various quarters we infer that studied and systematic. ef- lics, to cast their votes for the Democratic candidates. We certainly have no objec- tions to any citizens exercising theirown pleasure in the manner they ‘may’ exer- cise the elective franchise; but we can- not forbear to reprobate any effort to bring Religious sects—as sects—to take an ac- tive part in political contests.. It will be adding a new and fearful element to the excitable mass, which already exists. If Catholics array themselves against this or that ticket simply because a Protestant is upon it, the next thing will be that Pro- testants, in self-defence, will array them- selves against any ticket, which the Cath- olics support. And thus to the violence of political, will be added the consuming fury of sectarian strife. We find in a paper published in Marion County the following statement.—Rich- mond Whig. * Cuances.—The last Scion comes to us teeming with alleged changes. We know nothing about any of those, whose names are there, except Mr. Thomas S. Reeder. We do happen to be slightly acquainted with the cause by which his secession was effected. It was not as Mr. Basse? ing to his repugnanee to Mr. It authority : Mr. Reeder is a rigid Catholic. He re- ceived, a short time since, a notice from the Catholic Priest at Brownsville, infor- ming him that the interests of the Catho- lic Uhurch required the election of. Mr. Polk, and that he must support him. This mandate, Mr. Reeder considered himself bound to obey, and forthwith abandoned the principles he had cherished for years, and threw himself submisively into the Polk ranks. “We congratulate the Scion upon this accession to its miserable pay If there are any more men in the Whig ranks, who will suffer their political course to be governed by the imperious dictation of papa! authority, we beseech them to leave us. We wish no man in our rank, whose breast does not swell with the proud con- sciousness of civil and Religious. Liberty.’ We see no reason to doubt the aceura- cy of this statement—-strange as_.it_ may appear. But we must confess, that we are ignorant of any cause, which should operate to induce a Catholic—any more than a member of any ‘other Church, to vote against the Whig ticket—unless it be the simple fact, that Mr. Frelinghuy- |sen isa communicant of , a.Protestant Church.

Just at that moment the second traveller enters—announces himself a disciple of the Mormons, and de- clares it is in his power to raise the dead man to life, and putting all aside from the eouch of death, commences his necroman- cy, and soon sueceeds in raising the dead to life. ‘A couple of these impostors went out oan excursion of this kind about two . years or more since, and inthe course of i erie tra ‘The-forerunner called on the plain looking farmer; and represented him- self as 4 traveller who was poor, yet on a merciful errand. The farmer was an honest-hearted Methodist; making less show than some, but not less intelligent Christian, or shrewd than the most of men. The traveller joined with the family in their devotions, and talked of God and | heaven asa Christian. Noone suspected | his hypoerisy. | . About 4 o’clock in the morning the fa- | mily were awakened by groans proceed- | ing from the lodging room of the stranger. The farmer went into the room and was | quite shocked to find his guest suffering apparently in the most intense degree.— _Many remedies were applied, but of no effect ; the sufferer grew worse every | hour until about 7 o’clock, he appeared to show signs of death. Just at that mo- ment a knocking was heard at the door, and another stranger entered on its being opened. The family were much frightened, and consequently much gratified with the ar- rival of any person, although it should be a stranger. He was immediately inform- ed of the case and introduced into the room, upon entering which he announced himself a Mormon priest, and assured the astonished family he could raise the dying man to life even should he die—and, in- deed, to convince them of his power, he hoped he would die, which was soon the fact to all appearcnce. The new comer | then ordered all present to stand aside, | and not touch corpse or bed, but to send | for neighbors if they pleased, in order to | give full proof of his wonderful work. | Just at that moment it crept into the | head of the farmer that a trick was about | being played upon them of a blasphemous character, and he quickly resolved to test the same. “ Hold,” said he, ‘“‘ a moment, and do not the miracle until I return.”— He went out, took an axe from the wood- pile, and came in, without saying a word, walked up to the bedside, and addressed the man of miracles as follows : “ You think him really dead !” “(), yea.” “ Well then, I will just cut off his head, to make it sure, for if you can raise him to life from death at all, you can do it as well with his head off as on!” and suiting the action with the word, raised the axe as if he would strike, when lo! with a | loud shriek, up jumped the dead man, cry- | ing, “ Murder, murder,” at the top of his | voice ! Before the proper authorities could be reached, the risen prophet and the prophet baulked put out and fled as from a devour- ing plague, much to the amusement of the sensible man, who detected his imposi- | tions.

DUELLING IN KORDOFAN. “ The duel takes place in an open space, in presence of all their friends and com- rades, who act as seconds, or rather as umpires. An angareb (bedstead) is placed in the middle of the field of battle: the two combatants strip, and binding their shirts round their loins, each man places his foot close to the edge of the couch, the breadth of which simply separates them from each other. A whip, made of one solid thong of the hide of the hippo- potamus, 1s handed to each, and attempts to reconcile them are again resumed. If both parties, however, prove obstinate, or their sense of honor be too deeply impli- cated, for either to yield, the signal for battle is at last given. He who is enti- tled to the first blow, now inflicts a severe lash on the body of his adversary, who instantly returns the compliment, and thus the conflict is kept up, blow for blow with great regularity. The head must not be struck. The manner in which they lace- rate each other is perfectly frightful ; for the blows are dealt with the utmost se- verity, and the weapon is sufficiently for- midable to cause an. immense ecehymo- sis with. the very. first stripe-—with the third or fourth blow the blood begins to flow most copiously. Not the slightest | expression of pain is uttered by either | party and the umpires remain cool spec- tators of the scene. Thus the duellists persevere with their barbarous cruelty, | until the one or'the other overcome with pain, or exhausted with fatigue, throws down his whip, whereupon the victor does oe same and both shake hands in sign of > air with their. exc OnLy: ualsatisfaction. Their comrades now Ions til they come upon mal. Great to distinguish’ r the trace be of to-. rhe Rlcenaions rota pe ton tenn AT é recent, and that o ang animal, it is immediately followed up, and the huntsman' may make sure ee per & sight of their prey in a few houfs." As'soon as the giraffe is‘in view, the ran instantly. takes place, for the ariimal, very timid:-by nature, seeks refuge in flight, and indeed’ with extraordinary fleetness. » Everything: now depends on the dexterity of the rider, and activity of his horse. “They must do all in their power to gain upon the game they have started, and endeavor which is ‘the more readily to be effected, as the gi- raffe never takes a straight course, but by nature timid, doubles in the fear of its life, sometimes to the right, sometimes to the left, and is thus quickly overtaken by the horsemen. Having come up with the young animal pursued, the rider casts a lasso over its head; his throw but seldom fails, and in the worst case must be repeated. He then attaches the end of the rope to his saddle, drags the animal as closely as he can to his horse, and thus:the capture is effected. But now a steady and pa- tient horse, well broken to its work, is again necessary for the further transport, for the horse must resist the animal’s ef- forts, or give way to them (for it pulls and jumps in all directions.) in conveying it to the nearest village; which the huntsmen endeavor to reach as quick as they possi- bly can. A she camel should stand in readiness there to give the young giraffe milk, with which it is fed before being weaned to grass or hay. This treatment must be subsequently followed, and even full-grown giraffes should receive milk daily as drink, if it be in any way possi- ble.” Great difficulty is experienced in bring- ing the giraffes alive to Alexandria, for they appear to be among the most tender of animhls, and hence arises the high price which they bear in the market. The animals are sometimes chased for the sake of their skins; Pallme has tasted the flesh, and declares it to be agreeable and nutri- tious. He also vindicates the hyena from the charge of ferocity and cruelty, usual- ly brought against it by writers of Natural History, most of whom assert that the an- imal is untameable :— “In the court of a house at Lobeid I) saw a hyena running about quite domes- ticated: the children of the proprietor teased it, took the meat thrown to it for food out of its jaws, and put their hands even into its throat, without receiving the least injury. When we took our meals in the open air, to enjoy the breeze, as was our general custom during the hot season, this animal approached the table without fear, snapped up the pieces that were thrown to it, like a dog, and did not evince the slightest symptom of timidity A full-grown hyena and her two tt were, on another occasion, brought to me for sale ; the latter were carried in arms, as you might carry a lamb, and were not even muzzled. The old one it is true, had a rope round its snout, but it had been led a distance of twelve miles by one single man without having offered the slightest resistance. The Africans do not even réeck- on the hyena among the wild beasts of thcir country, for they are not afraid of it.” THE PROPRIETORS OF THE WATCHMAN OFFICE, J. J. BRUNER & 8. W.

BY Syed snd, dignits:’_ In addition to these; piles: of carpets, cushions and bed-clothes were to be seen on | every side, together with a prodigious quantity | - of kitchen utensils of every description, ‘The | bishop, the Bassorah lady and myself occupied but one tent, which, as usual, was separated in the middle by a curtain, the gentlemen being on ‘one side and the ladies on the»other.. Al- though our caravan was farnished with so great a number of. camels, the: travellers, including pilgrims, merchants, eamel-drives, attendants and escort, did not amount to more than five thousand individuals ; a yery large proportion of the camels being destined to carry merchan- dise, of which there was an immense quantity, Besides this, no inconsiderable number were required for the purpose of conveying tents, baggage, and provisions of the travellers. My fellow-traveller, the bishop, had five cam- els for his own use and that of his. attendants. I had the same number; but our companion from Bassorah had no fewer than fifieen, for the use of herself, children and servants. It must not be supposed that these camels were the property of the individual travellers. There is a class of men, who gain their livelihood by let- ting out these animals for hire, with whom a bargain is made by the persons about to pro- ceed on a journey, at a certain price ; the pro- prietor of the camels undertaking to load, un- load and feed them during the whole -time, be- sides providing drivers to attend them. I think I paid at the rate of about three hundred pias- tres for each camel; and this included every- thing, so that I had no farther trouble about the matter. Every morning, at day-break, I found my beasts all loaded, and one saddled for my own personal service ; and, certainly, nothing could exceed the assiduity and punctuality with which the duties connected with this, service were performed in every particular. Besides my little troop of camels,I had a horse for riding, which enabled me to vary the slow monotonous pace of the caravan with an occasional gallop over the desert. This horse I often lent to my reverend companion, who was very grateful for the trifling attention. At last the day of departure arrived, and at early dawn we set out on our long march, leaving behind a sorrowing crowd of the friends and relations of our fellow-travellers, who stood gazing at our almost interminable file of animated beings, as it struggled along with tardy pace, looking like a gigantic snake writhing its way over the wide- stretching plain before it, mingling benedictions and prayers for our safety with their parting tears. Onward the living mass bent its course ; the camels, with grave demeanor, like well- drilled soldiers, keeping their file with a strict- ness which would win the approbation of even a European drill-sergeant, those destined to car- ry the travellers having strapped on their backs maharads of every color, from lively red to deep purple, from emerald green to deep blue, each \olding six persons, and presenting the appear- ance of a moving city of brilliant-colored hous- es. The escort of cavalry furnished by the Pasha of Bagdad, who were nearly all Georgians and afforded a striking contrast, by the fairness of their complexions, with the swarthy-visaged multitude with whose protection they were charged, rode before and behind. The camel- drives walked by the side of their charge. and the whole caravan, composed of this motley group of baggage camels, riding camels, camels laden with merchandise, horses, cavalry, pil- grims, rich and poor, some mounted on camels, and others less fortunate, walking’ on foot, dri- vers, slaves, flocks of sheep with their owners, who had joined the caravan for the purpose of selling them to the travellers in the course of the journey, and, if I recollect rightly, a few bullocks, forming a line, not less, I am sure, than a mile in length, proceeded continually on- ward for ten hours, when a halt was made. During our march we aroused whole herds of gazelles, which fled in all directions, in great trepidation, over the plain. ‘The rapidity with which the camels were unladen and the tents pitched is perfectly incredible. In less than half an hour a vast city of tents arises, as if by the touch. of an enchanter’s -wand; and while the inexperienced traveller surveys with wonder and admiration the erection of a spacious square on his right, he suddenly casts his eyes to the left and finds that a long lane of tents has sprang up, as it were out of the bowels of the earth.

Having failed to obtain her by offering all lie was worth, he proceeded-to effect his object by | stratagem. - He‘disguised himself like a lame beggar, and waited by the side of a the mare, would soon pass.’ As soon as Nabee appeared, Daher cried in a feeble voice, ‘lam a poor stranger; for three days I have been unable to stir from this to.get food; help me, and God will reward you.” Nabee offered to carry him home ; but Daher said, ‘I am not able to raise ; I have not strength.’ Nabee then gener- ously dismounted, brought his mare near, and helped the beggarto mount her. The moment he was mounted, Daher touched her with his heel and started, saying, ‘ It is I, Daher, who have got her, and am carrying her off. Nabee called upon him to stop, which Daher did. without aid :: you would be the cause why no ohe would perform an act of charity more, from the fear of being duped as | have been.” This discriminating kind- ness subdued Daher ; he immediately dis- mounted; and returned the mare to Nabee, and when they parted, they parted sworn friends. “Here Mr. Montgomery remarks, Let a signal act of revenge, a cold un- feeling instance of retaliation, be known in our communities, and it excites horror, and even the decpest tones of indignation.

EXTRACTS From Mr. Clay's Speech, delivered in the House of Representalives, March, 1824. “ Two classes of politicians divide the people of the United States. According to the system of one, the produce of foreign industry should be subjected lo no other impost than such as may be necessary to provide a public revenue ; and ' the produce of American industry should be left tu sustain itself if it can, with no other than | that incidental protection, in its competition at | home, as well as abroad, with rival foreign ar- | ticles. | class, whilst they agree that the imposts should According to the system of the other be mainly, and nay, under any modification, be safely retied on as a fit and coavenient source of public revenue, they would so aljust and ar- range the duieson foreign fubrics as to afford a gradual but adequa‘e pro.ection to American tudusiry, and lesson our dependence on foreign nations, by securing a certain and ultimately a cheaper and better supply of our own wants ” “lhe greatest want of civilized society is a market for the sale and exchange of the sur- plus of the produce of the labor of its members. This market may exist at home or abroad, | or both; but it must exist somewhere, if so- ciety prospers; and whereverit does exist it should be competent to the absorption of the entire surplus of production. It is most desira- ble that there should be both a home and a for- But with respect to their relative superiority [ cannot entertain a doubt.

But is itsv?

To seé the hand of England in the movement to procure a repeal of the’ tariff, should be enough to make every American citizen a fast friend of the mea- sure, were its beneficial effects not so con- spicuously palpable as they are to the sen- ses of every man. The time was, when the exclamation was universal with the | American people, “ millions for defence, but not a cent for tribute ;” and we hope | that the same spirit then existed still pre- | vails..

They have, ther a een by the extract from the : Trished yesterday, subscrib-| ed half a million-of dollars for ‘that pur- suin) enormous as It-mayseem, is nothing to what they will freely sub- scribe; if by so doing, they could succeed in their object. Millions would be freely expended, and, so. far as their interest'is caly regarded, wisely expended; if, they could thus break down our tariff laws, shut’'up*our manufactories; blow out four furnaces; and'clésé our work’ shops.» Hav- ing done this: they would have a wide field of profit’ before them. ‘They would have a nation of twenty millions to clothe and furnish with all the works of art or Tabor, and they would ave this to do without a competitor. In the increased prices which they would thus be enabled to ex- act for their wares and fabrics, they would soon make up the comparatively trifling subscription of money which they made to that end. Will the people of this country lend themselves to this design of the British manufacturers? Will they agree—either directly by supporting the free trade doc- trines, or indirectly, by voting for James K. Polk—to make this country scarcely less dependent upon Great Britain than it was before the Revolutionary war? We do not think they—we are sure they will not. It is only necessary for the people to understand this subject properly, and there will be no difference of opinion upon it. Every day they are getting more light, and hence the numerous changes from Polk and free trade to Clay and the tariff. That this daring attempt of the British monopolists may not escape the notice of any one, we republish the account of it this evening, with the names of the sub- scribers to the fund. These men, who thus so lavishly give their money to aid in destroying our tariff, may, with much rea- son, claim James K. Polk as their candt- date, ashiselection would be their triumph. Who that is entitled to call himself an American citizen, will aid them to. obtain their triumph? Great as were the inter- ests at stake in this contest, between the Whigs and the Loco Focos, they all sink into insignificance compared with the one great and absorbing question, which the British monopolists have now. presented. As it stands, the tariff is a point where the battle of the independence of these States, aS was seen and their freedom from British thraldom, is to be fought over again. Every man who, after this revelation, votes for James K. Polk, votes ic sabtdage hy Ato advanee the interests. and designs of England and aids her in her efforts to monopolize the man- ufactures of the world. Her aids to re- duce again to colonial vassalage, the free people of this land—and if he and they could succeed in their design, the country would be taxed to its utmost capacity to pay England for what we would be oblig- ed to buy from her at her own price. But, as we have said, we say again— we have no fear that on such a view of the question, Mr. Polk can be elected.— Indeed, we have heard that already some who were disposed to give to him their support, now that they have seen who it is that are: advocating his election, and what results must follow from it, have come out for Clay and the tariff. Others | will follow their example, and thus the triumph of the American laborer over the English Monopolist, will, when the day of decision comes, be most decisive and complete.” PENSION AGENCY!

REDUCING THE WAGES .OF American LABOR TO.A LEVEL WEPH: THR, La» | 4 norn.or Evrorr. ~ That this.is..ract, we refer 4. to the following, declaration. made... by. Senator / Buchanan, ina spor’ in favor of the Sub-T rea; sury Bill in 1839 :.. “ght “ Reduce our nominal, to the real standard of prices throughout the world, and you cover our country with blessingsand benefits. I-wish I could speak in-a voice loud enough to be heard throughout New.England, because if the aiten- tion of the Manufacturers could once. be direct: ed to this subject, their own ifitelligence and native: sagacity would teach theni ‘how injuri- ously they are affected by our bloated banking and credit system and would enable them to ap- ply the proper corrective.” The “ real standard of prices, throughout the world” means, of course, the standard: in Eu> rope, where as we have seen, laborers receivé ftom six to rwenTy cénts a day for their labor. In England, for example, an adult male wea- ver receives $1,36 per week ; a female $1,15: in Switzerland a man earns 5s 6d, a female 4s: in Belgium male labor commands 6s, female labor 4s per week: in Austria _a man earns less than 33 per week or TEN cents per day, a woman. sEVEN: in Saxony male labor is worth SEVEN cents, and female labor six cents a day. This isthe “Rea sTaNparp of prices through- out the world :” and it is to this standard that the Loco Focos, Mr. Buchanan being witness, would reduce the wages of American Labor! Then, he tells them, our’ Manufacturers could compete with those abroad !—Then we should have no need of Protection, Free Trade could then prevail. The great point to be gained, therefore, is the reduction of the wages of La- bor :—and to effect that object the Sub Trea- sury System was devised ; its ultimate effect as has been shown, must be to contract the Cur- rency: and that Mr. Buchanan again being witness, must of necessity bring down “ our no- minal to the real standard of prices throughout the world.”—Thus itis seen that the Sub Trea- sury and Free Trade Systems are only. parts of one stupendous whole : they arebut two branch- es of the same great scheme: and their com. mon object is to enable American Laborers to compete with European laborers, by a reduc- tion of our wages to the standard of theirs ! Let us now see how this reduction of prices will affect some of the most prominent interests of the American people.—In the continuation of our objections to the System, we say, 9. That the Sub Treasury will vastly in- crease the expenses of Government. “*Phecbest. way to estimate these expenses isto ascertain the amount of the productive Jabor of the Ame- rican people required to meet them. The an. nual amount of the aggregate production of the country may not unreasonably be estimated at $200,000,000. The expenses of the Govern- ment may be stated at $30,000,000. .To pay this, therefore, requires one-sixty-sizth part of the products of American labor, in the. existing state of the currency, when the circulation a: mounts to $130,000,000. Now let-us suppose this circulation to be reduced one half :—ac.- cording to the principle quoted from Mr. Buch- anan in our last, that prices are reduced in ex- act proportion to reductions in the currency, the productive labor of the American people will be also reduced one half:—in other words it will then amount to only $100,000,000 annually.— But the expenses of the Government will not be reduced : they will require as before $30,000,. 000 in specie : and this will consume one thirty third part.of the products of labor, Twrcr as much as before the circulation was reduced.— The effect upon the people, of course, is precise- ly the same as if, the circulation remaining the same, the expenses of Government were pov- BLED, or made sixTx millions, instead of thirty. In the same way a still farther reduction of the currency one half, would require one sixteenth of the products of labor to defray the expenses of Government: or in effect make those expen- ses ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY MIL. LIONS of dollars, instead of thirty. This, as a moment’s consideration must convince every one, must be the natural and necessary opera- tion of such a contraction of the currency as we have supposed. nd it is towards such a state of things that the contraction caused by the Sub Treasury System inevitably tends. It.is tobe remembered that, while, under the Sub Treasury, as we have seen, the. price. of the products of labor, continually falls, the sal. aries of the office holders remain fixed, and paya- ble, not in these depreciated products, but. in gold and silver. The decrease in prices there- fore, operates as, and is in effect indentical with, an increase of salary. Thus, if as above. we suppose the circulating medium to be reduced one half, the salaries of office holders will be increased TWO FoLD : if it be again reduced one half, those salaries will be QUADRUPLED ; and thus ag the "reduction goes on salariés will in- creasé in the same ion’ The*salaries paid to some of the ipal offieers of Govern- ment will then amount to the:following sums : < pes cts be a éte with the Labor. | . ing ;-because:the | ;. jal to» pursue the dictates of his individual aw. ot ; nt ae * citizens—a 14 ti si POCTLC? a | PRE bese si s . ee pot Rape F $35 Rr Peer je tewiguet wah him -ai oma ey. , contraction’ of hereuneney NaysBOe debt!

These, are .elements; which. no» true friend of the Christian .cause, which: .no-. true Patriot, which none but reckless Demagogues and knavish partizans would ever consent ‘to see pressed into Politics. While the members of the various Religious denominations contia- ue as they have heretofore done to vote as citi- zens and not as Catholics, or Methodists, or Presbyterians ; while each Church remains as heretofore divided within itself upon politics, éach) ber is left free by the Church it- judgment and preference, no danger can arise ; But woe unto the ‘day, should it’ ever come, which Heaven avert, when Churches are to vote as Churches, Presbyterians as Presbyte- rians, or Catholics as Catholics: We? ’should then be on the’ high road to a Hierarchy—to a legal“ Ketablishment—to -the predominance of onec@hurch over all the rest, whose. luxurious and pampered Clergy would roll. in their Chari- ots rough shod over those, who fed and paid them: a state of things more odious and intol- erable than Monarchy itself... But,.this..would not be all ; the denomination which, should so far forget its duty as citizens and relinquish to Clerical or. Church: influence, the inestimable privilege of individual judgment, and. freedom of individual action in political affairs, would be spurned and execrated by the whole country, as unfit to be freemen and worthy only to be slaves—as base Judeans'who threw away the pearl of personal and political liberty, incapa- ble of appreciating its yalue, as_priest ridden Caitiffs who dared not be free where all are free !

(There are no manufacturers but Northern.) Insisted. upon the false position as his party’s policy, that the amount of duties levied or collected upon. foreign goods enhanced their price to the. consumer by that a- mount with all the attendant flumery, to make such false r theory : such as that foreign goods cost so much, duty so much, merchant’s profits so mtich—~all making up the the necessary cost to the consumer, ‘80 that ‘the’ "goods cannot be had for less, and when Northern .manvefactur- ers produce those goods they must get for them the boun- ty of the increased cost of foreign goods of the same kind. Thus the tariff gives a bounty to the Northern Manufacturer as well as:diminishes the price of Cotton. He asserted that the present tariff gave no protection to any other product of the country: no protection to wheat, corn, oats, beef, pork, or any thing else. With such ex- ploded theories and abstractions, and some witty remarks upon ¢coonskins and hard cider, he spun out a speech ‘of one hour and forty minutes, so. fatiguing his party friends that the larger part of them rushed out of the room. im- mediately on resuming his seat. Mr. Shepperd made a short reply, very cogent on some personal reflections cast upon him by his opponent, an- swering the anticipation of victory from the result of the laté election in the State of Maine; and the reduced Whig majorities in. the States of Kentucky and North Carolina, with the remark that the Locofoco party were extremely grateful for very small favours. Z. Mr. Clay’s Letters to Blair ! A very great noise has been made by Polkery about these letters.

Franky, (St. Mary’s Parisn,) September 12, 1844.+ I take great pleasure in giving you the result of the election which took place for State Senator, on the 9th,:10th, and I1th instant, in the place of Isaac G. Morse, Loco, (resigned and member elect to Con- gress.) The candidates were’ Alex. Declouet, Esq. (Whig) and Emile Mouton, brother ef our Governor. The returns are all in, and the grand result is that we have elec- ted Alex. Declouet by seventy-six votes majority, and this against fearful. odds.— But we have overcome all obstacles, hav- ing to contend with the Executive power, patronage, and personal exertions against us. This gives us a majority in the Senate, and a majority on joint ballot of ten votes. The result is glorious, having to contend with a host of office-holders and -expec- tants; but, thanks to the patriotic Whigs of the county of Attakapas, they have sus- tained themselves in a manner worthy of their former reputation. In July last. Declouet was beaten by C. Voorhies, (Loco,) for the Convention, one hundred and forty votes ; showing again in favor of the Whigs of over two hundred votes in this Senatorial district. Declonet in his speeches took strong ground against the immediate annexation of Texas, on the: Polk and Dallas system, prefering the United States to Texas. 1 Let the adjoining Counties ‘send in to us their orders for election Tickets, /as we wish to print them off and have them distributed in time.—Price, one dol- lar per thousand.

We therefore make no apology for a third time gracing our columns with the following sublime lyrical effusion, which is extract- ed from that meritorious national work } | | —the poetry is of the highest epic order, extolling the heroic deeds of that valiant warrior James K. Polk : ‘In the South he drew both pen and sword ; And Freedom marked by deed and word ; The red coats and red skins did flee From handy Jim of Tennessee ! “ When. red men ravaged through the South, His voice was in the rifle’s mouth ; The friend of brave old Hick-o-ry, Stood handy Jim of Tennessee ! Without ‘any «desire to detract in the least from bis otherperformances, we must think-that the last act of “ Handy Jim” mentioned above, is the most famous of them all, to wit: his “standing the friend of brave old. Hick-o-ry.”) That was an act were farmers from the country who} wanted to bet $2,000 on the election of | ' the town, and soon a Whig came forward | | who happened to have $2,000 by him, and | should have done their bragging | The Polk party hereabouts, upon | |of being jeered at as the“ Rip Van Win- | kle of the South,” she’s hailed as the “glo- rious, the good old North State.” Instead of being the land of “ ¢azr, pitch and tur- | pentine,” she is proclaimed abroad, the safest, the most prompt, and one of the | most active States-in the Union—sending abroad by means of her Rivers, Rail Roads | and Turnpikes, her thousands of; thé rich- |.est and choicest staples of the land. So | long as we were bound to the sluggish car | of Loco Focoism, we were dragging ont |a miserable existence, “ unknowing and | | unknown.” But when the light of truth | began to beam in upon the minds of the | people, and she began to arouse—to think (and act for herself, a mighty Revolution | /ensued—the facilities to her trade were | opened—the energies of her people were | put in action—and, like the Lion when he bestirs himself and shakes off the dew- | drops from his mane, and proclaims him- self King of the Forest, so she soon found | her self in the front rank with the prond- | est of the sister States of the confederacy. | And now, wherever a son of the good old | | North is found, he is proud to proclaim | himself a son of North Carolina——coming | from the land of the Gastoy’s, the Sran- Ly’s, and the Yancy’s. .

Mr.\Efaywood's address doniés this charge, con- siders.it calympious -atd-amjust, and supports the-denial. by «a numbér of certificates.

Now what protection 7” As to this, the address gives the People noinformation, On the contrary, “ ta- king a British protection” is treated as if it was merely reeeiving 2 paper trom a British Com. mander directing British soldiers not to molest | the Whig who had it; for the address says— ** Tories did not require protection, but W higs.” ‘‘ None needed the British.

Cormicallis would have been the veriest of simpletons, if he had granted protec- tiofiste the avowed Gnemies of the King. It is true; ds the addréss says, none necded protec. tions exeept: Whigs.

Let the matter be sifted as it may; let the Demo¢ratic Committee spread over it what man- that Ezekiel Polk preferred his money to his country, and could not follow the path of duty, when it demanded the surrender, or even the hazard of all he had. Was this the conduct of a true friend—a bold friend—a steadiast friend of his Country’s free- dom? What would have been said had Gen’l. Wasntneron taken protection, to save his es- tate on the-Potomae 7? What American heart but feels the supposition to involve an insult, on that greatest and best of Americans. What would have been the opinion and conduct ot Wasnixeton under like circumstances? A fact during the War of the Revolution furnish- esafull reply. When his overseer wrote him, that the British required from his Estate a sup- ply of provisions, under a threat of burning his house and property, the reply of the noble Patri- ot was——“ Let them burn!” Yet though his sta- tion was more exalted, his obligations of duty were the same with those of Captain Ezekiel Polk. But leaving the case of the Commander in Chief, does any one believe that Col. Willi- am Polk, or Charles, or Thomas Polk, his bro- thers, or old Thomas Polk, their father, could either of them have been compelled to take pro- tection asa British subject? Could any thing have reconciled them to such a degradation ? Not the fear of instant death probably, and, cer- tainly, not the loss of property.* No! When these men embarked ‘in the cause of their coun- try, in the times which tried men’s souls, they first sat down and counted the cost. They went and on the miserable pittance of property which might be at stake, cast nota thoughtaway. O! how different the conduct and feelings of Ezeki- el Polk? While his property was secure, and Cornwallis at a distance, none more devoted to the cause than he, but when Cornwallis came, when his estate was sequestered, he bent the knee, he took protection, and was, or meanly scemed to be, a British subject. To consider this conduct a Toryism, Mr. Hay- wood thinks the judgment merely of modern Whigs, but the certificates published by him, az well as those published by the Whig Press, shew that the same opinion of-his conduct was formed by Revolutionary Whigs. Andrew El. liotd swears that the one opinion of that day was that * Ezckiel Polk was a Tory, and was in heart and deed an enemy of his country.”— William McCoard and Nathan Orr swear that they always “ heard him branded with being a Tory during the Revolution.” John Brown swears, that he learnt from the Old Soldiers that Ezekiel Polk was a Tory, and that he took British protection, and that all the people considered his taking protection as rank Toryism as if he had been fighting against the country, Dan Alexander swears.‘ that he had repeat. edly heard his father relate to himself and oth- ers, that he was one of the men that took Eze- kic] Polk to Guilford as a Tory prisoner, and forced’ ‘tb take It is taanifest thon, that he roluatarily took protection, as a British subject, in order to save his property. — It is true Daniel Alexander says, “ he had many slaves with a good deal of other property”—but that makes no difference, The poor man might do to preserve his little, what the rich man might do to “keep his wealth. Neither could lose more.than his all, and the rich officer when he took arms for his country, had agreed to surrender all, if needful, for his tle of charity their piety may furnish, and after their task is fully done, the simple tact remains, that when his brother, Col. Thomas Polk, knew he was there, he said—‘damn him, I do not | want to see him, put him with the other Tories.’ | And Themas Alexander swears, that he was one of Ezekicl Polk’s company—that when Lord Cornwallis erected his head quarters in Charlotte, ‘ Ezekiel Polk went in and took Bri- tish protection—and that one Jack Barnett ba- ving learned that Polk had gone to Charlotte to avail hims2ifof British Protection, determin- ed to way-lay him as he returned and kill him.’ And this witness further swear s, that -he was in the war and personally knew these facts to be true,’ (See these affidavits regularly sworm to in the Appendix hereto.’) Andeven Mr. Haywood’s witness, Daniel Alezander states, that ‘some Whigs’ were so exceedingly zealous as to consider the act of ta. king protection (by Ezekiel Polk) as traitorous,’ and he also remembers Ezekiel Polk came into the camp with Jack. Barnett, and it was said Barnett bad taken hin prisoner, but Mr. Alex- ander considered. it ‘@ joke—a*very singular joke by the way—and he xlso remembers that after the War, ‘objections were made to his being Sheriff on account of his having taken British protection.’ It seems, then, that so far . Even the Ladies of the Revolation scorned to put their Property in comparison for a moment with the. good ‘Of their country. -When Gen. Marion hesitated to fire my, because her property had already been ravaged by the British, this noble Whig matron, with patriotic devo- Hon, greater than that ‘of Roman matrons and Roman warriors, @claimed, “ burn it, General, God forbid I should bestow a single thought on my little concerns, v 1 of my country is at ; sir, if it Were a pilace it thet go.” (See xr tie af Marion, page 220.) “How this anecdote of firm devotion to country, Ini one Gf the 'sofier sex, puts to shame thé un- worthy conductef Ezekiel Potk,-2 man, @ soldige: ana a of for bis those who:now defend him; and even ask Te | which it is drawn. that such a ification upon of all i would ibe dangerous to the country and iegracetsl to the citizen, it re only be be- cause the conduct of Ezckie dig itable and traitorous. © But what is Toryism but treason to the country in the war of thé Revo- lution? Hence, the difference in the judgment passed upon his condéiot-by the: whigs and. the Democrats, depends on the ‘diffe between those parties respectively, ‘in their notions of allegiance. ‘The latter hold, if Mr, H.correct- ly expounds their doctrine) a tacit exception in leave his country, and a soldier his standard, when this is necessary to save his property.— We hold the obligation to be universal in its is bound to adbere to his Pen thous he should thereby loose all that he has. Hence they justify, and we condemn Ezekiel Polk. Let the Freemen and Patriots.of North Carolina determine which is right. To them, we cheer- fully submit the question, To discredit the charge of Toryism alleged against Ezekiel Polk, Mr. Haywood offers two arguments, which may be shortly disposed of. The first is this: He publishes Ezekiel Polk’s commission as second captain in the Regiment of Rangers, dated 18th June, 1775, and states that his company formed a part of Col. Thomp- son’s Regiment which received the thanks of Congress in July, 1776 ; and urges the commis- sion and the vote of thanks as full evidence, that Ezekiel Polk was not a Tory? Whether his company indeed formed a part of Col. T’s. Re- giment we know not, but it required the talents of such a “ patient,truthful, and accurate inves- tigator of facts and evidence,” as Mr. Haywood is publicly certified to be, to discover how a cer- tificate and vote of 1775 and 1776 can prove that Ezekiel Polk was nota Tory in 1780,— We, in common with ordinary mortals, bad sup- what was either past or present, and that to de- termine the future, belonged to prophecy. Per- haps the Democratic Committee may undestand- the argument, which is this; Ezekiel Polk had a commission in 775, and a vote of thanks in ’76—therefore, he could not have been a Tory afterwards. Should any descendant of Bene- dict Arnold desire to remove the stain of trea- son from the memory of his ancestors, let him apply to this “accurate investigator of facts and evidence.” It has heretofore been suppos- ed that, in the early part of the Revolutionary war, he fought with bravery and devotion, on his country’s side, and that in the year 1775, (the very year of Ezekiel Polk’s Commission,) he gallantly led two divisions of American troops through a howling wilderness tothe walls of Quebec. And yet, it has been supposed, and history has also recorded, that in 1730, (the ve- ry year that Ezekiel Polk took protection) he became a ‘Traitor, and sought to betray his country to her enemies. No one has supposed heretofore, that there was any inconsistency in the two parts of this statement; but in Mr. Hay- wood’s hands, Arnold’s fame will be vindica- ted at once. Arnold, he would say, fought bravely for his country in 1775—Traitors do not usually fight for their country, and therefore, history is mistaken in recording him a Traitor in 1780. Afier all, perhaps the force of such reasoning to plain men will not be very appa- rent, until Mr. Haywood orthe Committee shall establish this proposition, that one cannot be- come, at onc time, what he was not at another and transter the doctrine of final perseverance from Religion to Politics. Mr. Haywood’s second argument is this: That after Ezekiel Polk had gone in to Corn- wallis, and taken a British protection, he was appointed by the Legislature of North Caroli- na Colonel in their service, and therefore, be could not have been then suspected of Toryism. | It is unnecessary to consider the force of the | conclusion, until the fact is established from | Mr. Haywood furnishes no | evidence of this fact. He says it is admitted. | Where, and by whom admitted? We do not | admit it—we know ot no evidence to establish | it, and it is easily of proof, if true. Let Mr. | Haywood produce the proof, that after Ezekiel Polk took a British protection, he was appoint. | ed bythe General Assembly, a Colonel in their | service. Until this is proved, it is idle to in- quire what inference should be drawn from it. In conclusion, Fellow-Citizens, we submit that the Revolutionary character and services of Ezekiel Polk were first brought forward by the Democratic Party as grounds upon which they clair support for his grand-son—that the Whigs instituted an inquiry into the nature of those ser- vices, and have produced a body of evidence given, under oath, pnt beyond reasonable | controversy, that in 1780, Ezekiel Polk was re- garded as in heart a Tory, by those who had | the best opportunity of knowing the truth—that | he voluntarily went in to Cornwallis under no | personal restraint—when in no danger of life— and took a protection from him, merely to save | bis property from loss or sequestration. And, | they have called upon you to say whether his | descendant has any claims upon his country, in | consequence of this conduct of his ancestor, | In answer to this, our opponents have brought , forward Certificates, not upon oath, which de- | nying that Ezekiel Polk was regarded as a To. ry, admit the fact that he took a British protec. tion under the. circumstances. we have stated, and then complaio, that we have assailed the character of the dead. Is.the complaint well founded? What they asserted in favor of Eze- kiel Polk was either to the purpose in this can- vase, or it was not, If it was to the purpose, were we to permit the People to be imposed upon by unfounded assertions of merits which | } 1 ea” mm did not exist? Were wo bound to submit in si- that obligation, by which‘a citizen is allowed to: requirements, and that the citizen and soldier, posed that evidence could only inform us of’ | question between Henry Cray and Jas. K. duty, and it should be the pride and the résolu- tion of the Whigs of North Carolina, who first & majority, as will miark at once their estimate | of his merits, and their detestation of the false and unprincipled calumnies with which he has been assailed. : who, when, put to,choose between. cess of ‘that country’s cause for an assurance wealth. ‘own person, and more particularly should he shew, by his conduct in inferior. trusts, that he is entirely free’ from the’old leaven of his ances- tor, and that he has no leanings against the Pa- triots of. the Revolution. What evidence has Mr, Polk furnished upon this subject? Wecan- not enter into any particular enquiry here, but letus ask briefly, what services has he ever ren- dered, and what are the claims, personal to himself, on which your support is demanded ? He has but three positive recommendations ; First, that he is in favor of the immediate an- nexation of Texas, without regard to the faith of Treaties. Secondly, that he is the friend of General Jackson, which is specially urged in Tennessee. And thirdly, that. he was born within ten miles of the place of General Jack- son’s birth. Beyond these, what are his claims? He was Speaker of the House of Representa. tives, but so grievously suspected of corruption, in the administration of his office, that the House, on one occasion, refused to allow him to appoint a Committee, and the usual vote of thanks was opposed andthe Yeas and Nays culled upon it—an event which never happened but once before, in our history. He was Gov- ernor of Tennessee, but his conduct gave so lit- tle satisfaction to the people of that State, that they turned him out ; and though he has assid- iously courted their support, they have never been prevailed upon to trust himagain. What measures is he in favor of! Can any human being tell? He is against a Bank of the United States—he has been both for and against.the Sub-Treasury, but no one knows what be is for now. Is he for Free Trade, or for high pro- tective duties, or for a revenue Tariff, with in- cidental protection to American Industry? Who can answer this question? Here, he’ is sup. ported as a Free ‘rade man, where moderate protection is popular, while in those parts of the Union, where high protective notions prevail, he is confidently affirmed to be a stronger ad. vocate of protection thanMfr. Clay. In this | State, his North Carolina origin is urged in his | behalf, but this is an insult to our people. Ifa North Carolinian is desired fur President, sure- ly the State can furnish men, whose ancestors were neither Tories nor suspected of Toryism, and she cannot desire to let down the Presi- dential office by placing in it a man unknown to fame and possessing but an unenoviable noto- riety, merely because he was born upon her soil. But how has Mr. Polk shewn himself affect- ed towards the Soldiers of the Revolution—has he shewn that, if his Grandfather’s attachments were wrong or doubtful, his own are certainly “ory-upon-o8 a sin oe they belie decane tereavee, took'a re cewnreg from Bp sed as *.: : P ‘save 9 t a y— a British subject, inorder to teteets 1 Sanat fo the. honor of a soldier, om a duty of a citizen, and bartered the suc- from. a British commander of protection for his’ ma) We are not prepared to.saythat:the descendant of such a man is, under no circum. stances, entitled to the highest confidence of his country ; but surely, he ‘ought to produce the highest evidence of devotion tn her cause in his “Bein BS took ‘protection and was in heart an pouve Bat) oe commtry—as it ‘was ow ported at the same time thas he‘was the British Army and led oe where they could do the most damage country, and I always looked upon ‘him mys as@ Tory.: Iam now in my 80th year.«°s* ANDREW ELLIOTTE.

For three years past this town has been Locofoco, excepting last April, when the whig Re- presentatives were elected by less than 20 majority. A Great Whig Meeting at New York— Locofoco Outrage. | county, lying on second creek, adjoining the lands of The largest meeting ever held in New York, was held by the Whigs, Thursday night last. Moses H. Grinnell, Esq. pre- | sided. It wasan immense affair. At one | time, there were ten speakers addressing { | different crowds. After the adjournment, | a splendid procession was formed. The | | adjoining the lands of W. E New York Courier says, that when near | Duane street in Chatham street, a party of Loco Focos attacked the Jersey dele- gation, but were soon routed. Subse- | quently, the Empire, Club made a despe- rate attack on the-@nd of the procession, and were also driven off. Still later, the Young Men’s Clay Club was attacked b a body of ruffians, headed by Bill Ford, late of the Penitentiary, and their beauti- ful banner taken from them. The young men had fallen into the rear and were de- tached from the main body of the proces- sion. The assailants were armed with | bludgeons and knives, and outnumbered | the young men in the procession, but they | were beaten off after a severe conflict, in | which the standard-bearer, George W. | Williams, received a severe cut in hishaand. | The Standard was captured and borne off; | but the young Whigs pursued their as- sailants and recovered the flag-staff. The flag itself was torn off and could not be recovered. Several persons were much | injured in the scrammage. The New | York Commercial suggests to both parties, the propriety of having no more night processions during the campaign. | | A coop ong, InpEED!—The United States | Gazette says: “A friend from the interior | of this State, (Carbon county.) informs us | that, in order to show the Locofocos by | thetr own papers, that Mr. Polk and the’! party. as a party, were opposed to the pro- | tective policy and to the present tariff, he subscribed for the Richmond Enquirer; but that paper not having Polk and Dal- | las at its head, is denied to be a Locofoco | paper, and the Locos of that county, and | even one who has been a member of the | House of Representatives and of the Sen- | ate of this State, insists that it isa Whig | paper!

Bafiled in the chase, instinct, was at fault, and the wolf, if left solely to its blind guidance, must, in the absence of other game, have perished. But hunger, that proverbial sharpener of the human wits, appeared also to call forth certain dormant reasoning faculties in the animal. which, under ordinary cir- cumstances, might have never been dev- eloped. The wolf, finding that instinct has deceived him, refuses to be longer guided by a blind impulse, and begins for the first time to think. He abandons the natural habits of his race, and in concert with his fellow wolves, plans and exe- cutes an ingenious stratagem, worthy of thé ‘reasoning powers of man himself; a complicated manceuvre not only arguing conalderable sagacity on the part of indi- viduals, but implying that a mutual un- derstanding exists among the performers, which, it appears to me, can only be ac- counted for on the supposition that ani- mals possess some power unknown to us, of communicating their ideas to each oth- er. See to it, ye naturalists—Diary of an old Forest Ranger. THE MUSTANG. The mustangs are small horses, rarely above fourteen hands high, and are de- scended from the Spanish breed intro- duced by the original conquerors of the country. During the three centuries that have elapsed since the conquest of Mexi- co, they have increased and multiplied to an extraordinary extent, and are to be found in vast droves in the Texas prairies, although they are beginning to become somewhat scarce. They are taken with the /asso, concerning which instrument or weapon | will here say a word or two not- withstanding that it has often been de- scribed. The lasso is usually from twenty to thir- ty feet long, very flexible, and composed | of strips of twisted ox-hide. One end is | fastened to the saddle, and the other, which _ forms a running noose, held in the hand of the hunter, who thus equipped, rides out }into the prairie. When he discovers a | troop of wild horses, he manceuvres to get _to windward of them, and then to ap- | proach as near them as possible, If he is | an experienced hand, the horses seldom or. never escape him, atid ‘a’ S00n as he finds | himself within twenty or thirty feet of ; them, he throws the noose with unerring aim over the neck of the one he has se- lected for his prey. This done, he turns | his own horse short round, gives him the | spur, and gallops away, dragging his un- | fortunate captive after him, breathless, and with his wind-pipe so compressed by the noose, that he is unable to make the small- est resistance, and after a few yards, fall, ' headlong to the ground, aud lies motion- | fess and almost lifeless, sometimes indeed | badly hurt and disabled. From this day | | forward, the horse which has thus been caught never forgets the lasso; the mere |sight-of it makes him tremble in every | ‘limb; and however wild he may be, it is | t | sufficient to show it to him, or day it on | | his neck, to render him as tame and do- 'cile as a lamb. | The horse taken, next comes the break- ing in, which is effected in a no Jess bru- | ;tal manner than his capture. . The eyes | of the unfortunate animal are covered, anda tremendous bit, a pound weight or more, clapped into his mouth; the horse- breaker puts on a pair of spurs six inches long, with rowels like penknives, and, | jumping on his back, urges: him to his | very utmost'speed. Ifthe horse tries to | rear, or turns restive, one pull, and not a | very hard one either, at the instrument of torture they call a bit, is sufficient to tear his mouth in shreds, and cause the blood to flow in streams, I have myself seen horses’ teeth broken with these barbarous bits. The poor beast whinnies and groans with pain and terror; bat there is no help for him, the spurs are at his flanks, and on he goes fall gallop, tilkhe-is:ready to sink from fatigue and exhaustion, e then has a quarter:of an hour's rest-allowed him; bat scarcely does he begin to recov- er breath, which has been ridden or spurr- ed out of hig body, when he” is again mounted, and has to go through the same violent process as Gefore-' If he breaks down during ‘this rude trial, he is either Knocked on the head or driven away as useless; but if he holds out, he is marked with a ise. and left to graze on the prairie, Hleneeforward there “is ar- tictlar difficulty in catching.

A Young Lady Killed at Niagara Falls. —A most heart-rending accident occurred at Niagra Falls, on the 26th ult., resalt- ing in the death of a beautiful and accom- plished young lady, Miss Martha K. Rugg; aged about 20 years, whose parents re- side at Lancaster, Mass., which place she left a few days previous to visit her sister, Mrs. George W. Howe, of Detroit. The Buffalo Gazette says, she was under the care of Mr. John Long, the partner-in-bu- siness of Mr. Howe, her brother-in-law.— Arriving at Niagara Falls, they stopped with the intention of spending a short time. On Saturday about noon, in com- pany witha party from Buffalo, they walk- ed out, and when on the bank just. below the Falls, near the Museum, on the Can- ada side, Miss Rugg suddenly left the arm of her protector to gather some bushes growing on the very brink of the preci- pice, and almost instantly lost her balance —falling about 100 feet perpendicular ! She was heard to utter one fearful cry as she was falling, and all was still. It was some twenty minutes before her compan- ions could reach her. When they did so, they found-her still alive, but senseless— uttering a few incoherent words. Medi- cal aid was afforded almost immediately, but she died in about three hours. The only discernible injuries on the body were a slight scratch on one temple, and one ankle broken. Putting Things too far Apart.—Sambo | was a slave to a master who was consti- tutionally addicted to his master, had, by dint of long practice, made himself an a- dept in giving plausibility to his master’s stories. One day when the master was enter- taining his guests in his customary man- ner, among other marvellous facts, he re- lated an incident which took place in one of his hunting excursions. + “1 fired at a buck,” said he, “at a hun- dred yards distance, and the ball passed through his left hind foot, and through the head just back of his ear!” This evidently prodtcing some little doubt in the minds of his guests, he called on Sambo to corroborate him. “ Yes, massa,” said the almost confoun- ded slave after a moment’s. hesitation, “me see dee ball hit’im. Jes as massa lift up de gun to he eye, de ole buck lift up him foot to seratch he ear, and massa’s ball went clear frough ’im foot and head at de same time.” The guests were perfectly satisfied with Sambo’s explanation, and swallowed the whole without hesitation; but when the guests were gone, Sambo. ventured upon his master’s good humor so far as to re- monstrate :; “ For goodness sake, massa, when you tell annudder such a big lie don’t put him so far apart; me hab tarnation hard work | to get em togedder.” A, Wonderful Negro.—Near Wunts- ville, Ala., there is a negro boy, aged 17 years, who weighs 200 pounds, and though in other respects so mentally imbecile as not to know enough to eat when he is hungry, has a most wonderful arithmeti- cal taculty. ing an answer through the medium of multiplication, however intricate or labo- rious the application of the rule that he will not answer without hesitation, or the use of slate or pencil, solely from mental calculation. He multiplies thousands, adds, subtracts, and divides with the same certainty, though with more mental labor. He has, however, no idea of numbers a- bove millions. For example, he was ask- ed how much is 99 times 99? He an- swered immediately ‘9801.’ ‘ Well, how much is 74 times 86 1-2?’ Ie answered ‘6401.’ ‘How many times nine in 2000?” He answered ‘two handred and twenty- two nines and two over.’ ‘How many fifteens in 3356?” He answered ‘ 343 fif- teens and. 11 over.’ mm 6 ia Bs EF @) >> S hereby given, that all persons indebted to the estate of Rudolph Sechler, dec’d, are requested to cajl and sattle the same On or before'the county court in Novem: ber next : also, all persons having claims against said estate are requested.to present.them for settlement on or before that time, as the business of the estate positively must be settled.

The great Clock in Strasbourg.—A corres- pondent of the New York American, writing from Cologne, gives the following account of this great Clock: “The Cathedral of Stras- bourg is well known to every one as the high- est building in Europe, and only surpassed in height by the pyramid of Chiops. -As, howev- er, there are six hundred. and tifty-five steps to ascend. as the ascent can only be made-by special permission, and, last but not least, one must ascend a great part of the way upon,the outside of the spire, I contented myself with looking atthe top. The view from it is said to be fine, but the surrounding country is so level that I am inclined to suppose it rather exten- sive than beautiful. The so much talked of clock is in the cathedral, and occupies a space ot 4o feet high and 20 wide. This clock was fur a long time out of order, and no one could be found capable of repairing it. At last an artist appeared, who, after a long and minute study of the machinery, agreed to put the clock in motion again for the small sum of three hun- dred thousand francs. As he was the only per- son who would undertake.it at any price, the | sum was promised to him. He immediately went to work and afier more than three years’ labor, and the reconstruction of the principal part of the machinery, the whole is now in per- fect order. At noon alt the automata are in motion, and there is‘always a crowd assembled to witness the performance : “Timé strikes the hour, the angel turns his hour glass, the disciples pass in procession before their Master, and the cock flaps his wings, erects his crest and crows. SUNDAY MAILS. The Postmaster General in answer to a let- ter addressed to him by a committee at New Brunswick, N.

In the month of March, 1836, the Dem- ocratic Corresponding Committee of Smith- field, Bradford county, Pennsylvania, ad- dressed. a Tetter*to the Hon. Georce M, Datas, requesting: his-opinion as to the best mede of destroying the charter which had been granted’ by the State Legisla- ture to the Bank of the United States. After some months cogitation, Mr. Dat- Las, in July, 1836, addressed to them a communicationof some length, which may be found in Niles’ Weekly Register of September 17, 1836. “In'the course of the letter he says: “Of ‘the constitutional power of the National ‘Government to create a bank, I did not ‘then [in 1831] and do not now entertain ‘a doubt of the ability of Congress to cre- ‘ate such a bank as would be a safe ma- ‘chine of finance and a serviceable ageht ‘in preserving a sound currency; I then ‘ was, as] still am, quite convinced.” He then. after some adulation of Gene- ral Jackson, proceeds to discuss the seve- ral modes of revoking the bank charter. To do it by act of the Legislature he seemed to think would be a step too much in advance of the intelligence of the age; but he recommended that it should be done by the Convention then about to assemble for the purpose of revising the Constitu- tion of the State. The powersof the Con- vention, he declared, were unlimited !— But it is best to let him speak for himself. Here are his doctrines, in his own words: ¢ *f ‘ be permitted to say that it is not-from his au- ‘thority only that the subject derives its a ok ‘tance, I see with regret a melancholy fore. ‘ boding that the principle he ayows is held by ‘almost his entire. political party.

In this view it is interesting, not only “to the Bank of the United States or to the peo- ‘ ple ‘of Pennsylvania ; it concerns alike the “people of all thesStates and the lovers of free, ‘regular, and orderly government throughout the “world, Its obvious tendency is fo wnseitle eve- ‘ry society, by rendering the rights of property ‘ precarious and insecire. In its consequences ‘itis at war with all government. « It. is the ‘ principle not of reform, but of revolution ; not ‘of law, but of wi ; the mere right of the ‘ strongest. It is high. time that its true char- ‘acter were known and understood by the Peo- ‘ple. ‘They ought to know that the insecurity ‘ of the rights of property precedes. but a short ‘interval the insecurity of the rights of liberty ‘and of life—the anarchy which follows the ‘overthrow of regular government, and the des- ‘potism which renders anarchy unavoidable.” It is evident that this new doctrine is pregnant with momentous consequences, not less to State Rights than to chartered rights. Upon the same principle that.a State Convention might dispose as it pleas- ed of the rights, property, and liberties of the citizens of a State,a General Conven- tion of the whole People might dispose as it pleased of State rights and of the pe- culiar property.of the Southern people. It is true that such an attempt would prob- ably end in disunion and civil war. But would the attempt itself be legal? Is it not a doctrine which should be resisted in the outset, lest it should lead to disunion and civil war ? That the doctrine promulgated by Mr. Dattas is that of the Locofoco party gen- erally, cannot be questioned. ‘The organ of the party at the Seat of Government, September 17, 1836, in noticing his letter, said: “We hope the Democracy of Penn- | sylvania will embody their whole strength | * A Convention is the provided machinery of ‘peacefal revolution. It is the civilized substi- ‘tute for intestine war, the American mode for ‘coming at theemajority; the undeniable and ‘indefeasible right to alter, reform, or abolish ‘the Government in such manner as they may ‘think proper.

What may it notdo? It may reor- ‘ganize our entire system of social existence, ‘terminating and proscribing what is deemed ‘ injurious, and establishing what is preferred. ‘It might restore the institution of slavery a- ‘mong us; it might make our penal code as ‘bloody as thatof Draco; it might withdraw ‘the charters of cities ; it might supersede a ‘standing judiciary by a scheme of occasional] ‘arbitration and umpirage ; it might prohibit ‘particular professions and trades; it might ‘ permanently suspend the privileges of the writ ¢ of habeas corpus, and take from us (as our late ‘General Assembly made an entering wedge ‘to do) the trial by jury. These are feartul ‘ matters, of which intelligent and virtuous free- ‘men can never be guilty; andI mention them ‘most boundless power of a Convention. The |‘ broad and unchangeable rules of justice and of ‘truth; and these, I have already shown, do not ‘hedge round the charter.” It is obvious that, so far as the stockhol- | ders of the Bank were concerned, it was | quite immaterial whether their property | was destroyed by the act of a Legislature ‘or the act of a Convention. The wrong |and the injury, if any, would have been | ithe same. The true question was, and is, | whether a bare majority of any Conven- ‘tion, no matter what name they assume, ‘are entitled to dispose of the lives and | property of the minority; without any oth- _er limits than “the rules of justice and of | \ truth,” as the majority may please to un- | ‘derstand these rules.) Mr. Datvas him- ‘self was of opinion that the Convention | should pay back the bonus which had been | received from the Bank. The Convention | might, however, upon Mr. Datuas’s prin- | ciple, have chosen to retain the bonus as_ a punishment for the bribery imputed to ‘the Bank. They might have chosen to 'revoke other charters,and destroy other | contracts, besides that of the bank; and, | upon one pretext or another, have caused | the whole property of the State to change | hands—have taken it away from those whom they believed unworthy, and dis- tributed it to those whom they believed worthy, This doctrine of. the anlimited powerof the majority. in Convention, promulgated by So prominent a man as. Mr. Dattas, attracted the attention of the vigilant friends of State Rights in the South, and drew forth an able and conclusive reply, published in, the Baltimore Patriot under ‘s € of Mapison, and attributed n of the late Mr. Ursuur.

In the great cause of liberty and union, of equality and justice, of representative privilege against Executive prerogative, of honorable peace rather than inglorious war, of dependence upon our own indus- try and independence of foreign control, and of the perpetuation of our free repub- lican Government, we invoke your aid. New and startling issues are before you. Their decision will affect not the nts, one of the The great contest so soon to be ended, for weal or wo, involves our destinies as a nation. A powerful and unscrupulous party, under the false garb of democracy, are aiming their deadly attacks at your Constitution, and the citadel of liberty it- self reels to its foundation. Composed of discordant materials and of heterogeneous principles, connected by a single sentiment, the hope of plunder, and acknowledging but one common rule of action, that “ to the victors belong the spoils.” the free trader and the professing protectionist, the friend of the annexation of Texas and its deadly opponent, the ad- vocate of the right of petiticn and its base | authentic supporter of modern Dorrism, | in their resistance to British oppression, which governed the framers of our Con- stitution in the formation of that sacred instrument, and which actuated the glori- ous fathers of the republican school in the great contest between Federal and State power, has sunk, on the part of the self- | styled modern Democrat, into a strife for | party ascendency, regardless alike of prin- ciple and of country. Against this motley band the Whig ar- my of the Union have rallied to the polit- | ical conflict. The camp-fires of 1776 and 1840 are | again rekindled, and from every hill and | in every valley they shed forth their light upon the Whig patriots of 1844, hastening to the rescue of their country and her in- stitutions. Who among you will be found wanting on that great day of his country’s jubilee?

Merc, MR. CLAY’S STANDING AT HOME. The Lincoln Telegraph publishes the follow- ing extracts from a letter recently written by the Rev. Dr. Nash, a distinguished divine of the Episcopal Church, who has resided for ten years near Mr. Clay, and who fully corrobo- rates Dr. Bascomh’s statement in reference to Mr. Clay’s character. The paragraphs quoted show conclusively how the great statesman is regarded by the moral and religious men of his own neighborhood and State, who know him best. The letter is dated Sr. Avsan’s, Vr., Aug. 24, 1844. ‘“* As a criterion of the estimation in which he is held at home, it will not be out of place to stale here, (which I do unhesitatingly, having had ample opportunities for ascertaining the truth,) that Mr. Clay has the confidence and political support of a very large proportion of the moral worth, and, I may add, of a very large majority of the members of the different denom- inations residing in Lexington. All of these, I believe, with one exception, are the friends of Mr. Clay, and most of them are frequent visi- ters at his house. There are about twenty Episcopal clergymen residing in Kentucky. All of these are the friends of Mr. Clay. Of the one hundred and five or ten clergymen (I do not recollect the exact number) composing the last conference of the Methodist church of Kentucky, all but three, as I was informed by a number of the conference, are the political friends of Mr. Clay. I. am not so accurately informed respecting the political opinions of the ministers of other denominations as I am re- specting the opinions of the ministers of the Episcopal church. I am confident, however, that there is nearly, if not quite, as large a ma- jority of these friendly to the election of Mr. Clay as of those last mentioned. Out of the four or five hundred clergymen, of different de- nominations, in Kentucky, there are pot, I am almost certain, fifty political opposers of Mr. Clay. “The opinion of a great majority of the reli- gious people (m‘nisters and others) living in the neighborhood of, and immediately connected with, Mr. Clay, I am confident is, that if he is elected to the Presidency, there will be, while he continues President, a far healthier moral in- fluence around the Presidential chair than there has been since J. Q. Adams’ administration.” FURTHER REFUTATION. Mr. R. S. Hart, of Dayton, on reading the assaults in the Locofoco press upon the private character of Mr. Clay, addressed a note to the Rev. N. H. Hall, a Presbyterian clergyman at Lexington, Kentucky, desiring bim to state what Mr. Clay’s moral standing was among his neigh. bors. The following is the reply of Mrsflall. Read this clear and explicit testimony : Lex«neTon, August 27th, 1844. Duar Sir: Your very polite and respectful favor of the 19th iustant is now betore me, an without unnecessary delay, I reply to your in- it is in the mouth of al- quiry. You state that “ most every political speaker, opposed to the elec- tion of the Hon. Henry Clay, and is heralded forth from every Démocratic and Abolition press, that Mr, Clay isa man of desperately bad moral character, and that such is his standing in Lex- ington, and throughout his neighborhood.” You desire me to state what Mr. Clay’s stand. at home and among his neighbors is. have been the Pastor of the First Presbyte- rian Church, Lexington, nearly twenty-two years. My first residence when I came to this place, was joining Mr, Clay’s farm, and ever since I have lived inthe neighborhood, and have known this honorable gentleman, and it gives me pleasure to say, that I have never witnessed @n act, or heard an ion from Mr. Clay, that was not in con orinity with the strictest morality ; his character the great mass of his neighbors is that of a highminded, honor- able, kind, and. benevolent:gentleman. “In a word, sir, I believe that Mr.-Chn *s moral char- acter is as good, and far better than Most of the political men with whom I have been acquaint- aod I consider him more nenily qua idency of, tbe : mol tne than tre | } 5 y culation of it would be a fraud u cry ote “se a? . . . « me u 9 ¥ oe ee pekinese? : 92 Bot Cons 2 a : we a e " va T StL oer". afl) chaleaitcteeilk the.

One of two copies of the tract having, it appears, fallen into the hands of the Chairman.of the Whig Congress Commit- tee, that gentleman conceived that he would be serving the cause of truth and fairness by obtaining a number of copies of it, and circulating them among the People of the North, against whom -it: is calculated and doubtlessintended toarouse the worst possible feeling in the South.— Not being allowed to purchase copies at the Spector office for the purpose, he caus- ed the tract to be reprinted at this office. Until the controversy which arose con- cerning it, we had not read any more than the head-line of this tract. We have simce examined it, and have satisfied ourselves that the reprint, made by the order of Gen. Green, is a correct reprint from the copy obtained from the Spectator office. The tract purports to-be an address by “the Democratic Association of Wash- ington D. C.” dated at Washington, Sép- tember 25th, and bears the signatures of the Chairman and Secretary of the Exe- cutive Committee of that Association. An article published in the Globe of Monday evening, having the signatures of the same persons, denounces this tract as “a base forgery.” If it be a forgery, it is one ex- ecuted.at a mint of their own, and tor which the leaders of their own party alone are accountable. But it is no more a for- gery, we may presume, than uther address- es, purporting to be from the same com- mittee, to which their names have been affixed without their being aware of their contents. It would be the height of cru- elty, certainly, to hold the Executive Com- mittee of the Society responsible for all that has been published in their name. Leaving the question of forgery to be settled by those of our opponents who are interested in ascertaining to whom among them it properly attaches, we. warn the People of the South against being duped by any such attempts, under whatever dis- guise, pretence, or color, to play upon their sympathies for the purpose of turning them against their real friend, the truly National Statesman, whose whole life is the guaranty of his political honesty and his patriotic purposes, and his fidelity to the interests of the South as well as of the North.—Nazv. Int. LOCOFOCO HONESTY. Wasuincton, October 1, 1844. I observe in the Globe of last night the following card ; “ Base den, Forgery.—Notice to the Democracy.—-We understand that the Whig franking and publishing committee are now having printed at the office of the National Intelligencer forty thousand copies of a document headed ‘ T'uz Soura ty Dancer,’ purporting to be issued by the Democratic Association of this city. This is a base forgery. We have authorized no such use of the title of our association to any document issued under the auspi- ces of the Whig Congressional franking committee. If, therefore, the Democracy of the free States should find any docu- ment of the character such as the title of this might indicate incirculation amongst them, they will denounce it as a Whig for- gery, and treat the trick as it deserves.— Thus will the people of the country un- derstand the morals of the party we have to deal with. This trick of these politi- cal Munchausens is on a par with the Roorback remance just published by one of their leading journals. “We believe it to be our duty to put the Democracy on their guard against this forgery ; and we trust that the Dem- ocratic rs throughout the country will republich this card. . * JAMES TOWLES, Chairman.

A document of four pages, headed “ The South in Danger,” “ Read before you Vote,” “ Address of the Demo- cratic Association of Washington, D. C.” and signed James ‘lowes, Chairman, and C. P.

Watk- ER; certainly he carried large numbers of it in person to the folding-room of the U- nited States Senate, and superintended the enveloping of them with a watchful eye to prevent the escape of a single co- y; and, after the folding was completed, ad the whole, by his direction, sent to his boarding-house. Having received sever- al copies of this document, and understan- ding that Mr. Walker intended to circu- late it only in the South; and to vent, if possible, its appearance in the North, | thought this surreptitious -and. partial cir- the I, therefore, sent to the (where it was a thousand 11 intended to send ican P “Pree to pu ’ Cd AT ‘Oo OO) ern i.

Forgery forsooth! Any | newspaper in the country would have had the right to republish this paper without hote or comment, and would that have been a forgery? Every day:newspapers republish, from others such articles as they deem proper. and is this forgery ?. All that custom or morals require is, that the re-} print shall be correct. The documents of} the Whig Committee give truth; they are not intended to be read only by a portion of the people, or by one section of the Un- ion to the exclusion of another section, and thereby produce a false imipression. They are addressed to’ the whole People of the United States, without regard to sections or parties. I will, and so. will the whole Whig party, not.only concede,the right, but will be much obliged to the “ Democratic Association of Washington” or Mr. Senator Warxrr (the speci y as- signed sentinel at Washington of the whole, or at least the Southern division of the Democratic party) to reprint them, and thank them to do so, and place a copy of each in the hands of every voter in. the United States. Is it not a curious fact that this Association should assail the Whig Congressional Committee, & charge it with “base forgery,” for aiding it to cir- culate its documentsin a genuine exact form ? But this transaction is characteristic. It is but one evidence in a thousand of the system of fraud, misrepresentation, sup- pression and partial circulation of facts and documents, so as to produce different impressions in different sections, upon which the Locofoco leaders are conduct- ing the present canvass. This card itself is but another instance. It says: “If, therefore, the Demoeracy of the free States should find any document of the charac- ter such as the title of this might indicate in circulation amongst them, they will de- nounce it asa Whig forgery, and treat the trick as it deserves.” This admoni- tion is addressed only to the Democracy of the free States, and leaves the whole Southern Democracy to be gulled by re- ceiving as genuine this document, though it even come under the frank of «a Whig. This proves the fraudulent at ic of the Democratic Association of Washington, and of Mr. Walker, to exclude this pre- cise document from the free States. ‘The copies sent forth by the Whig Committee are the identical document. word for word, letter for letter, and comma for comma, with which Mr. Walker is now inunda- ting the South, and which he is at the same time attempting to diseredit as. a .forgery ia the North. And yet his card, for ] must so consider it, signed James Towles, chairman, and C. P. Sengstack, secretary, reads a homily about morals! I stand ready to prove any and all the facts herein stated if Mr. Walker denies them. WILLIS GREEN, Chairman of the Whig Congress Com. State of Porth Carolina, DAVIE COUNTY.

On hand sea article of ating and smoki sept. 28,44 Wf IH. splendid article, ‘pronoun of its. administ spond to letters addressed’ t6 me, makin; inquiries in regard to subjects which ha been much agitated. Of the answers which I so transmitted, some were inten- ded exclusively for the satisfaction of my correspondents, without. any .expectation on. my part of their being deemed swor- thy of publication.. In regard. to«these whieh have been presented: to the public. misconceptions -and -erroneous. construc- tions have been given to’ some. of them which I think they did not authorize, or which, at all events, were contrary tomy intentions. ve In announcing my determination to per- mit no other letters to be drawn. from me on public affairs, I think it right to avail myself of the occasion to correct the erro- neous interpretation of one or two of those which I had previously written. In April last I addressed to you, from Raleigh, a letter in respect to the proposed treaty an- nexing Texas to the United States. and I have since addressed two letters to Ala- bama. upon the same. subject. Most un- warranted allegations have been made that those letters are inconsistent. with each other, and, to make it out, particu- lar phrases or expressions have been torn from their context, and a meaning attri- buted to me which | never entertained. I wish now distinctly to say that there is not a feeling, a sentiment, or an opinion expressed in my Raleigh letter. to. which I do not.adhere. . lam decidedly opposed to the immediate annexation of Texas to the United States. 1 think it would be dishonorable, might involve them in war, would be dangerous to the integrity and harmony of the Union, and if all these ob- jections were removed, could not be effec- ed, according to any information I possess, upon just and admissible conditions. It was not my intention, in either of the two letters which I addressed to Alaba-. ma, to express any contrary opinion. Re- presentations had been made to me that I was considered as inflexibly opposed .to the annexation of Texas under any cir- cumstances; and that my opposition was so extreme that I would not waive it,even if there were a general consent to the measure by all the States of the Union.: I replied, in my first letter to Alabama, that personals I had no objection to. annexa- tion. I thought that my meaning was sofficiently obvious, that I had no person- al, private, or individual motives for op- posing, as I have:none for espousing ‘the measure, my judgment being altogether influenced by general and political consi- derations, which have ever been the guide of my publie conduct. In my second letter to Alabama, assu- ming that the annexation of Texas might | ’ be accomplished without national dishon- or, without war, with the general consent of the States of the Union, and upon fair and reasonable terms,] stated that I should be glad to see if. I did not suppose that it was possible could be misunderstood. I imagined every body would comprehend me as intending that, whatever might be my particular views and opinions, Il should be happy to see what the whole nation. might concur in desiring undef the condi= tions stated: | Nothing was"further from’ my purpose than to intimate any“change of opinion as long as any considerable and respectable portion of the Confederacy should eontinue to stand out in op to the annexation of Texas = In all three of my letters*upon the sub- eet of cin aie. that anexation: inadmissabie except upon fair 2 other ye Fy a" DS OF ICR Fi duties to your country; since:the- foundation the Government. ;' And‘are you preparediod charge that high prefogative in.the‘manneril itsbould be? | Are you all determined if lite} to be at the electionjon the FOURTH DAO NOVEMBER | by. times; to. do battle in fat of HENRY CLAY and Whig Principles? hope you are.

Let the People see to it, that they do not permit them to get the Government into their hands, by default ; but let them be on theic guard, and all will be well. The extract which has been going the rounds ofthese “ demoeratic”’ papers, make Mr. Ciay sy: . ™Fhave, however, no hesitation in saying far from “having any personal objection to Me annexalion-of Texas, 1 should be glad to fee it, H, CLAY.” As the above reads, Mr. Cuay is personally in favor of annexation, without any condition Whatever. It is, however, only a part of the ebtence. Here is the whole of it. <“Ihave, however, no hesitation in saying that, far from having any objection to the annex- of Texas, I stiould be glad to see it, with- Wit dishonor, without war, with the common con- Atatof the Union, and upon fair and just terms.” » Now, we leave it to:every man ‘of common sense. to say, whether there is any inconsisten- ¢y in the language here-used by Henry Cray, andthat employed by him in his first letter on the annexation of Texas. . But how can any one #ipect any thing bétter from these men.

But it seems just as they were uttering the denial; an Agent of a British House in N.-York, publicly proclaims in the streets of Baltimore, that he had orders from: his,employers.in England! .to make use of all the ‘means (money of course) in his pow- er, to procure the repeal of the American Tar. iff, a3; will be seen‘ from the following article from the Baltimore Clipper, a neutral paper : Startling Fact.—An Agent of an English fron Manufacturing Establishment, stated a few day$‘since to a dealer in hardware, of this city, that he had received positive instructions from his principalsiia England, to use al} the means in his power-to procure the repeal of the Amer. ican ‘Parif—f. The agent resides in New York, and will comply with the instructions he has re. ceived. .So here is proof positive of English interference with our domestic concerns. Brit- ish gold will be lavishly spent to influence af- fairs in this country ; and British agents will roam through our land, to cheat and deceive our people into the support of British measures. Are they to be thus imposed upon or corrupted? We do not believe it. The influence of British gold may be partially felt, it is true, in the pur- chase of a few venal presses, which are a dis- grace tothe country ; but the mass of the Amer- ican people will spurn this foreign attempt on the purity of our government, and cling with more tenacity to the measure which England is so desirous to destroy, The knowledge that British agents are at work, under instructions from their employers, to procure the repeal of the Tariff, will be sufficient to stimulate the A- | merican people to its support. No Congress will dare to unite with England in the destruction of our manufactures, No patriot would sanction so unholy an union ; and no man, other than a traitor to his country, would sustain it. This same British Agent offered to bet five | thousand dollars of British Gold, no doubt, that | Po.k and Datuas would be elected, when a good Whig stepped up and told him he was not in the habit of keeping that much by him, but if he would wait till morning, he could have his bet taken, if not, he had $1,200 by him, which was at his service on the spot ; but no, this Brit- ish agent—this enemy to American prosperity, backed out and skulked off. MR. CLAY’S CALUMNIATORS. It seems that Mr. Clay’s revilers and slanderers cannot satiate themselves, al- though they have exhausted the whole vo- cabulary of mean epithets in traducing and villifying him. They have blackguar- ded him until they have made themselves sick, and still he shines forth as an unclou- ded star, bright and burning; and, like that emblem, seems rather to improve in | his brilliancy by the blasts which how] below. But his revilers, although they have done much, ‘have not ceased to do: Their last effort to blemish and defame, we be- lieve was, the publication of a picture of Mr. Clay, “ with a-coat of arms, exhibit- ing cards,’—indicating that Mr. Clay isa gambler, we suppose,—“ a pistol,”—show- ing that he is a regular duelist, we again suppose—“ a bottle”—that he is a drunk- ard—and the words—“ shoot lower !”— Stch is the last effort to dim the lustre of that crown, worn by Henry Clay, which many envy, and which thousands of Dem- ocrats hate him for. | ove aniwie we havea pretty good ica! they ‘ate, and if Wwe’ find’ ‘out for certain, we assure these basy. bodies that we will: expose. them, to. the .public..gaze.,. The’ Whigs are not opposed to the re-building | of the ‘Mint but ate to a man we believe, desirovs that it shoald be rebuilt immedi- ately. It does not come within the pro- vince of the Whigs, to oppose.any thing which is caleulated to benefit the Public, but more appropriately to the Locofoco party—the opposers of almost every thing intended to prosper the country. FOR THE WATCHMAN. Messrs. Editors’: 1 Yiave lately hetird that some impudent Locofécos in the mining regions of the West, and particularly in the counties of Rowan, Stanly, Cabarrus, Mecklenburg and Lincoln, are deluding the uninformed portion of our People, by telliug them, that the Whigs are opposed to the re-building of the Branch Mint at Charlotte. I at first could net believe that there was a man to be found so daring and so silly, as to-attempt an imposition of so base and pal- pable a character on any community." Bat'such is the fact! ~All, through this section of the State are certain seerct agents, who, finding that their late stock of published lies, manufactured by Kendall, Haywood, Duncan. and Co., has run short, or, that the investment in- the same has not turned out to be as profitable as expect- ed, have “ got up” a new domestic article in the following vidi iculous style: “ Mint’s burnt; Gaither’s nig er did it; Pearson a Federal ogc sare Sin and Clay and all the Whigs dead set against re-building 1” Not only so, but I have heard from a gentleman of veracity, that personages of no less importance than “ Democratic Electors,” are occasionally harp- ing upon this golden theme, to elevate Jas. K. Polk to the Presidential chair! Such is Loco- Polko-focoism, in even the * good Old North State!” Phis is rather too small a matter to be noticed in a public Press ; but I only do so to warn the Whigs against any secret and infamous false- hoods that might be propagated a few days be- fure the election. And there is also sometimes danger of very small things working great inju- ry, especially in political affairs. As far as the Whigs are concerned with the Branch Mint, Democratic logic would make us all in favor of rebuilding. For, (say they,) Mr. Clay having during the 27th Congress, when there was a strong inclination to abolish it ex- pressed an opinion decidedly in favor of its con- tinuance, and voted for the appropriation to car- ry it on (a priori) his obsequious followers would, of course, be of the same'mode of think. ing. And this would be very properin this in- stance. But let the People recollect that the Democrats have a majority in the present Con- gress, and that the application will be made this winter for the appropriation to rebuild. Should it fail, the defeat of the measure will lie at their door. GOLD HILL. (7 We acknowledge the receipt of some valuable School Books, from O, L. CLeave- LAND, Bookseller Raleigh, N.

This coming from one who had seen them, decided Harry, and he replied before Mr. Swell could find his tongue, that he was just concluding a bargain for.the. whole.of them. The dis- appointment.of the stranger was extreme; but the interest he had felt in Harry from the moment he first saw hin, compelled him to relinguish all claims which a pre- vious offer gave. Between and under his three ‘bed-fel- lews, our speculator slept but little that night, but he was consoled by Mr. Swell, who was one of the party, with the assur- ance that he would not be crowded when he got upon his own soil. The next day the papers were made out, and on the day following, Harry, in company with a Jumber man, who was to point out all the opportunities for improve- ment, started for the Gullafellow. It was two day’s ride from the ‘city; and about the close of the second day, when his com- panion toldhim they were near the ‘town.’ Harry was continually stretching up his neck to catch a glance of: the steeples.— They had not passed a house since noon; the roads were in a wretched ‘condition ; but his spirits were kept buoyant by the thoughts of a tavern and a soft bed: The sun Was about setting, and the mist began to gatherinto the damp forestywhen the lomber man pointing. ahead. called out with much evident satisfaction, ‘there itis.” -Harry,.who saw nothing but alog hut, without a window, and a chimney on the outside, propped up by young saplings, supposed. it. was-something that was drop- ugly, and replied that it was a great.cu- riosity. In'a, few. minutes they drove up to the hole which-had received the name of out.

I think we bad. better go up,” replied the guide;. and accordingly they commenced the ascent. There wis hardly a place oni’ the. whole rock. where both feet could be broughton a level, and they toiled nearly an hour before reaching its summit. : Harry did nt speak;he only sat down, when thé guide, pointing to alevel, marshy tract, in which could be discovered a few spots of water, but more brakes and bush- es, there werethe “Water Privileges,” and that all the rich bog, a little nearer, be- longed to his own estate, oy While they were on the rock an incident oceurred which had well nigh made. it. the grave of Harry as well as of his fortune, A cloud, which had been. gathering in the West for more than an boar, suddenly- rolled up, and the hoarse rumbling of the thuider, and the large drops of rain which began to descend at intervals, betokened that a heavy shower was close upon them, The guide, not’ afraid of a little water himself, but anxious om his companion’s aecount, said he remembered having once seen a cave a short distance lower down, and toward it théy’ both scrambled. They had scarcely reached it when the rain began te fall in floods. ‘The lightning seemed to play upon the very surface of the rock, which trembled beneath the hea- vy peels of thunder, as though it would be riven. Inthe height of the tempest, a flash of lightning struck its summit, and ap im- grinding down the steep, with an awful sound, which reverberated frightfully thro’ the crashing woods. A fieree.growl from the back of the cave succeeded. ‘My God! whispered the guide, ‘we are ina bear’s den!’ and scarcely had he spoken when they saw the flashing eyes of one of th®largest of those animals, approaching. To retreat was their first impulse. © But to escape, if they could not destroy him, they knew to be an impossibility. The creature, affrighted and infuriated by the continuing roar of the tempest, leaped from the deni ere they had gone 20 feet, and knowing that all attempts at flight would be useless, both turned in.de- fence. , Harry, with.a sure aim, disebarged his rifle into the creature’s. brenst, but he only becamemoreexasperated. His claws tore the seales from the rock, his. eyes glowed like. fire; and the wind blew the froth from his teeth as he sent forth dread- ful growls. The guide stepped before Harry, plant- ed his feet firmly, and when the bear rear: ed upon’ his ‘hind legs to give him the death embrace, he drove the axe with des- perate energy into bis brain. ‘Jt was ef- fectual, and the body tumbled down.the descent, and reached the valley crushed and shapeless. Harry wished to see no-more, but ad- vised immediate return. Next morning he left. Gullafellow. and:its attractions. for Banger. He did not go to the Bangor house this time, but retired to mere -pri- vate quarters, and.on the following day departed for home. Harry went out, as we have said, like one going to his wedding: He returned like a‘man coming from a- funeral, with: his brain clear and thoughtful,-and -his feelings painful. But he was not one to despond, and @n the morning alter his ar- rival in New York, he called‘upon the old man whom be had met when leaving the city. ‘* What success, my boy ? said he as soon as Harry eame in sight: ‘7 have come to say,” replied the latter, “ that] will fill the vacancy in your counting- house.” “ You talk of the bonds of affection, the ties of frie ip, and all. that,” says. Krentz, “ but I know of no stronger attachment than that which a sheriff entertains fora poor debter who can’t fork over,” . * A-clergyman took for his text the followin, “Vow and pay unto ‘the “Lord ‘thy — “An Se ante hii? attentively; and at conclusion, he stepped up to the parson and thus: accosted him—*<T vow fll go home with you, Mr, Minister.” “ You must go then,” replied the parson.

At the feet. of. the “Seyen Mountains ’’. is Godesberg, an. insulated rock, rising abruptly. from. a surrounding plein. greatly resembles Stirling Castle.in Scotland; but while »that is there a very striking and prominent. object, Godesberg, its Rhenish counterpart, is here scarcely noticed, This is a remarkable illus- tration of the immeasurable superiority of the surrounding, scenery, whose brilliant. beauties thus annihilate those of all mingr objects. The black basaltic precipices, called Erpeter Lei, have been converted into vineyards by.the ingenuity and labor of the toiling peasants,— Though almost inaccessibly steep and _ utterly bere rocks,in their crevices are thrust wicker baskets filled with mould, and containing the vines. Without this precaution, every shower would wash away the earth from their roots. This unparajleled labor and expense would of course not be taken unless remarkably good wine was thus obtained. Its success probably de- pends on the heat absorbed and given out by the basalt, and perhaps.(on Liebig’s theory). upon the salts retained by the volcanic racks, Nothing will so disappoint the traveller on the Rhine as the appearance of the vineyards, so associated with beauty and poetry, but in reality not a whit more romantic than a field of beans or hops, climbing up rough poles. Here the bean and the vine are often planted together in alternate rows ; and at a little distance they cannot be distinguished, The vines mount the river’s bank in terraces, each little strip of earth being sapported by a wall, often as thick as the ground ‘abore it is wide. ' These terraces rise’ one above the other, {in one spot to the number of thirty,) with their white-washed walls to the top of the ‘bank, which faces the south, leaving not ap inch of it unimproved, while the other cliff, called ““ the false side,” is left untouched. {n this northern clime, where the vine seems ‘an exotic, évery single beam of sunshine must be carefully hoarded. Hammerstein Castle affords the next fine view after Drachenfels, especially looking hack upon it, wher-you see behind its black rocks and mas- sy ruins, promontory upon promontory, receding in ‘the distance; each one with some beauty pe- coliar to itself, and each assuming a deepér and deeper tint of neutral blue, till they mingle with the color ‘of the sky, while, winding between them, and embracing each in -turn, “ the river nobly foams and flows.” At Andernach the mountains on-both sides of the Rhine again approach the water’s ee form another gloomy and ‘wild pass.” ‘T to Coblentz there is little to see; aus you may sately take-dinner. But,that‘nothing may be lost, itis here always setvéd up on the deck of the-steamboat inthe open air/so that the eyes and the appetite are feasted at once, and thé scenery is like the accompanimentof fine music at the repast. Seats are secured by throwing down “your glove or gauntlet on'a plate, in the.most chival- ric style. _ Indeed, no smull.portion. of knightly courage is required to attack a German dinner, with its indescribable flavors and uapronavnca- ble disbes.

But I should need.a_ volume instead of a letter, if 1 attempted to make even a passing allusion to all the tales told of “ this exulting and abounding river.”~ The Hudson and the Rhine are often com- pared, but never with any satisfactory resu}t.— Like a blonde beauty and w brunette, cach has charms peculiarly its own, and each may in tura be preferred by different tastes without dis- paragement:of the other. -If they must be con- trasted, the difference might be best expressed to those familiar with the nice, shades of lan- guage, by calling the Rhine, picturesque andthe Hudson majestic. _In.our pet river, as.inall our country, every thing is on a larger scale. The stream is wider, the hills are higher, and their ranges and sweeps are vaster. But this very grandeur of size is a defect, for-the eye can take in 80 much fewer objecté, and the picture com- posed by those few, though’ grand anes, which it‘tan Gomprehend in a single glance, haa there- fore-less variety and:richness. | But though the | rocky mountains of the Rhime are smaller, they are-much more wild and ragged, and remarka- bly bare of vegetation. _Their-angles.are shatp-. er, their sides more abrupt, and their. summits more broken. ‘They. are thns mare valuable to the artist, though not to the husbandman.

In 1808, he was again elected to the Kentucky legislature, and was chosen speaker. In 1809, he was again clected to the Senate of the United S:ates to supply the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of the Hon. Buckner Tharston. In 1811, having a choice of a seat in the Senate or House of Representatives of the United States, he was elected to the latter, and was on the first ballot elected speaker; an honor never before or since conferred on any new member. In 1812, he supported the war with all his. power. , In 1813, he was again elec’ed to Con- gress, and again chosen speaker. In 1814, he resigned his seat in Con- gress, having been appointed one of the commissioners to proceed to Europe to negotiate a treaty of peace with Great Britain, which was effected. In 1815, he returned to the United States having been previously unanimously elec- ted to Congress; but doubts arising as to the legality of the election, a new one was held with the same result and he was a- gain chosen speaker. In 1817. he was again elected to Con- gress, and chosen speaker. In 1818, he made a great speech in Con- gress in favor of the independence of the South American States, which was read at the head of their armies. In 1819, he waselected to Congress and gain chosen speaker. In 1820, having determined to retire rom congress on account of his privaie affairs, he resigned the speakership. i In 1821, he settled the Missouri ques- tion, thus acquiring the title of the ‘Great Pacificator, and retired trom Congress. In 1823, he was again elected to Con- gress, and was again for the sixth time chosen speaker. In 1825, he was appointed secretary of State by Mr. Adams; and it is said, ne- gociated more treaties than all their pre- decessors together. In 1829, returns to Kentucky, and re- tires to private life. Jn 1831, he was again elected to the Senate of the United States. In 1833, he introduced the compromise bill, and thus saved the country from civil war. In 1835, he made the French report, and saved the country from a war with France. ‘In 1842, he resigned his seat in the Se- nate and retired to Ashland. He was in the service of his country for about 35 years—supported with distin- guished ability the administrations of Jef- ferson, Madison and Monroe—enjoyed the highest confidence of them all, (being of- fered by Monroe a seat in the cabinet,‘and # carte blanche of the foreign missions)— was the great friend and patron of all the great interests of the country, agriculture commerce and manufactures, and is so completely identitied with them all, that his history is emphatically the history of his country.

To. | = From the Nashville Banner. The Free Trade sympathies of the. Locofuco forthe Amer. | P©2® ican mechanic—for the humble but industrivus press naturally lead to a contempt and true-hearted inmates of American w: shops and American mines and factories, the expression of this contempt is by no means restrained. . We have. two instances.of it.be- fure us, and could quote others if necessary. _| h The Nashville Union, the confidentia! organ and representative of the opinions and senti- ments of Jauxs K. Poix; the egress 4 days ago, in to pro- tection, denominated ie laborers—male and date for the Presidency, in. speakis Whig policy, a few female of course—employed hy | protection offered hy the Whig Tariff to the American. factories and workshops, “watts staves.” ‘Thus— “ Their zing mam own large factories—wHO LITERALLY OWN AL- 80 THE WHITE 8Laves employed to toil in them for stinted wages from twelve to fuurteen hours a day—and not to protect the great body of the laboring people of the whole country.” Now, the contempt indicated in the above extract for honest American labor (a contempt, as we befure remarked, characteristic of the free trade press) is not its-only offence. A great outrage is committed upon truth by the charge that these “ white slaves,” as they are called, are made to toil for stinted wages “twelve or fourteen hours a day ;” since the notorious fact is, their wages are any thing but “ stinted,” as the statistics of Lowell abundantly prove. But the honest operatives of this country re- quire no defence from onr hands; our purpose is with Locofvco sympathies, and without fur- ther remark we pass from Mr. Poxx’s organ at Nashville to his organ at Lexington. A recent outburst of the Kentucky Gazette against “ tinkers, tinners and tailors,” and other * mechanical occupations,” (as the bold Rob Roy would have it) is traced to the fact that these hard-fisted but true-hearted and honest citizens of Lexington took it upon themselves to attest the character and standing of an EMINENT Metuopist Divine, Mr. Bascoms, against the malignant assaults of the Locofoco press. Mr. Bascoms’s offence was that he had spoken well of Mr. Cray’s private worth ; the offence of his mechanic neighbors, that, after Mr. Bascoms had been traduced and villified, they, knowing the man, attested his good stand- ing. and endorsed his honest testimonial ot Mr. Cuay’s character. For this the editor of the Giazette (or John M. McCalla for him) assails the parties concerned, not by name, or because of their lack of veracity or moral worth, but by their TRapEs: and all this with the most inefta- ble contempt for honest Jabor, and with a flip- pancy towards better men and more useful citi- zens than himse'f, which the Locofuco press, hacked by British gold, may well afford to sport. We copy a specimen or two : “ We have scrutiuized the muster-roll of the renowned forty-seven, and find that it is made up of bricklayers, carpenters, coffin-makers, dry-goods clerks, carriage-makers, |:atters, shoe- makers, retail small dealers in muslins and calicoes, (by courtesy termed merchants ) cabi- net-makers, keepers of plank-yards, waggon makers, overseers of bagging factories, tailors, pump makers, tavern keepers, comb makers, grocery keepers, truss makers, music masters, tinners, and apothecaries.” Again: “ They are, doubtless, ve bricklaying, carpentering coffins. tape and pach. - thread, buggies, wool or fur hats, plank, cabi net ware, wagons, bale rope and bagging, coats and pantaloons, town pumps, fine or coarse combs, trusses, chickens and eggs, and olher edibles, groceries, crotchets and quavers, tin- cups and pans, pukes and purges—but, in the name of Apollo, what do they know, what can they be expected to know, about “ burning elo- quence” or “high intellectual endowments.” ! As to the preachers who figure so conspicuously | in the list, of the weekly modicums they dole out to their listless congregations are to be ta- ken as specimens of what they consider * burn- ing eloquence” —why, then, they’re worse jud- ges of the article than even the aforesaid brick- layers, comb makors, carpenters, batters, pump makers, apothecaries, truss makers,” dc. Again: “It is because the Rev. H. B. Bascomb has not, and never will have, one particle of “ burn- ing eloquence,” that the certificate of the afore- said TINKERS, TINNERS, and TaiLogs has be- come necessary.” From a statement made in the North Ameri- can, it appears there are published in the city of Philade!phia six daily subscription papers, and eight daily pores these dailies, are fourteen semi-weekly and weeklies ; there are fourteen secular and fif- teen religious weeklies, making in all—inclu- ding two printed in German—tifty-nine daily and weekly papers. These, it is said, throw off weekly about 576,000 sheets, or nearly 30 000 000 aunually. It is not easy to calculate the influence which these perindicals exercise over the public sen- timent. But, for evil or for , it is unques- tionably very great. And how vastly respon. sible is the situation of those who wield this mighty engine, and throw abroad daily into the minds of half « million of people the reflection of their own and thus mould the pub. lic feeling similar to their owa.—Farmer’s Cabinet. ’ vs @Atteren Covrace!—A Locofocoout % de icy has been to protect monopoli- rers—to protect capitalists who good judges f papers.

If they du, they have only to lend theif aid to procure the repeal of the present tariff, and they will again have the nity to take their fishing tackle tothe wharves to supply din- ners to their faruilies, The’ difference between the prices paid in Europe and in this country for labor of various kinds may-not be generally rstood ; but the fact must be evident to all, that without the ta. riff the manufacturers and mechanics of the U. States caunot successfully compete with those of Europe unless wages in this country be re- duced to the European standard—that is, to the point of starvation, We give below a statement from a New York paper, which exhibits the American and Euro- pean prices for various kinds of labor ; and we appeal to those engaged in the branches'named, and ask them whether they will consent to re- peal the taritf act and to work for the prices therein named : Cotton weavers, (men ) who now get per day 80 cents, must then work for 26 cents. Cotton weavers, (women ) who now get per day 33 cents, must work for 18 cents. Cotton weavers, (girls) who now get per day 30 cents, must work for 10 cents. Silk weavers, who now get per day 50 cents, must work for 11 cents. ; Spinners, who now get per pound 10 cents, must work for three cents. Ship carpenters, who now get per day $1 75, must work for 50 cents, Brush makers, who now get per day $1, must work for 20 cents. Hatters, who now get for silk hats 55 cents, must work for 25 cents. Straw hat makers, who now get $1 per hat, must work for 20 cents. Paper makers, (mén,) who now get per week $8, must work for $1 75. Paper makers, (women.) who now get per week $2 75, must work for 55 cents. Sail makers, who now get $2 per day, must work for $1 40. Cordage makers, who now get per day, $1, must work 16 cents. Shoemakers, who now get per day $1 30, must work for45 cents. Tailors, who now get per week $9, must work for $4. Cahinet makers, who now get per week $10, must work for $4. Day laborers, who now get per day 85 cents, must work for 27 cents. Makers of Ironware, who now get per ton thirty dollars, must work for twelve dollars. Thus it will be seen that mechanics and man- ufacturers, with all who depend fora living on making by labor the raw materials into articles of use, must reduce the wages of their labor in the ratio indicated above or quit the business. The destruction of the protective system leaves them no other alternative. Next let us see how the aggregate annual earnings of several classes of the laborers would be affected. The number of persons engaged in each branch of business is taken from the 2nsus returns of 1840. 4,464 cordage makers, who now get $1 50),- 000, would then get $240 000. 4,726 paper makers, who now get $3,432,- 000. would then get 759 36) dollars. The cotton weavers inthe United States, who now get 18,000,849, would then get 5,850,000 dollars. The woollen cloth weavers in the United States, who now get 4,800,000, would then get 1,200 000 dollars. The shoemakers in Massachusetts, who now get 15,000,000, would then get 5,400,009 dol- lars. The tailors in the United States, who now get 10,720,000 dollars, would then get 8,320,- 090 dollars. The cabinetmakers of the United States, who now get 9360,0C0 dollars, would then get 3,744,000 dollars. Mechanics! read this list attentively, and then make up your minds whether you will be fur or against a protective tariff? the one hand you are offered employment and fair pri- ces; on the other, idleness and ruin, or wages tor labor which will not give bre=2 to yourselves and families. Make your choice, which you will have! The consequences of that choice are to be felt by yourselves and those who are dear to you, as well as by your country.—Bal- timore Clipper.

JONES UPON MR. POLK.” Gor. Jones, the conqueror of Polk upon two different battle fields, was among his friends aind | neighbors of Wilson county, on the 7th inst., and was forced to make them a speech, From the sketch of his remarks, we copy the follow- ing. It brings forward a new, a @ and se. rious charge against the “little trimmer,” Mr. Polk. He assists in. ((7~ presenting # petition’ to abolish slavery in the Distriet of Columbia, and the slave trade among the States. Do you hearthis;Locoftcos? Has John Q. Adams ever gone further than Mr. Polk has in this in. stance? Neighborof the Democrat what say you to it? “* There was but one point, or but one in- stance of his political knavery, to which he de- sired to call the attention.of his hearers, and he would do this because it was one that would be new to most, if not all present ; it was a fact that had not been presented tothe people of Tennessee ; and one that ought to consign bim over to infamy. ‘This may seem, said the Gov- ernor, to be strong language, but. the provi tion is strong. _ All must have® perceived disgraceful efforts which are heing made by Col. Polk's leading organs in this State, and more particularly the;Nashville Union, whose libel- lous Editor seems to delight to riot and fatten in the filthy sewers of calumny and slander, to identify Mr. Clay, and the Whig party with ab- olition. You all remember the disgraceful ef- fort made by James K. Polk, in his inaugural Address, to identify the Whig’ party with this same odious and infamous fanati¢ism. ‘This un- manly and insidious attack, said he, merits, as it at that time received, the execration of every Whig in Tennessee! > He said he alluded to this cowardly assault not. for the purpose of arousing old prejudices that may have been buried and forgotten, but because of its connection with another incident in the history. Some time in the year 1840, this same gentleman—hbeing at that time Gov- ernorof the State—received the manuscript pro- ceedings of the “ World’s Convention” under the frank of Mr. Gates, a whig member of Con. gress from N. Y. \ He did not remember ever to have seen this manuscript published, and as such could not speak with certainty as to its con- tents, but he understood it to be designed for the advancement of the cause of Abolition. Gov. Polk seizes on this pretext, and makes it the oc- casion of a long denunciatory letter to this man Gates. Now he did not object to the castiga- tion inflicted by him on Mr. Gates; he thought it might have been well] enough, but he never could see the propriety and necessity for pub- lishing this Jetter of rebuke, unless, as no one doubts, it was intended fur political effect, to op- erate on the then pending Presidential election. Of all this, however, he did not complain; he referred to this letter to call attention to a senti- ment “it expressed near its close. Col. Polk says to Mr. Gates “ft is matter of sincere re- gret that any American citizen should be guilty of such high treason to the first principles upon which the State became united. Your official frank covering these proceedings, stands up in judgment against you as a witness, whose testi- mony is not to be impeached.” “Here said the Governor, is a sentiment worth of an American citizen; worthy of one who loves his country and would advance its honor and peace, and if it stood unrefuted by oth- er acts and sentiments, he would for one, most cheerfully accord to its author, Cov. Polk, the full meed of praise for so patriotic a declaration. But suppose, said he, I show from the records of the country, that he, Gov. Polk, is guilty of a grosser prostitution of his official station to the same unholy purpose? Suppose he shou'd show that he (Polk) had lent his official station to the actual presentation to Congress, of an Abolition | & petition? If, said he, I shall be able to estab. lish this fact, does not this man, according to his own denunciations of Mr. Gates, stand convict- ed of F-high treason against the first princi- ples upon which the States became united !_7 and coupling this fact with his most shametul and digraceful attempt to connect the whig par- ty with the abolitionists in his inaugural ad- dress, must not bis friends stand confounded at the depth of bis political hypocrisy 7—must not his own cheeks blush for shame !—if indeed be be not lost to such emotions. He then charged that James K. Polk, as Speaker of the House of Representatives, did lend his official station (and so far as that act constitutes high treason against the principles on which the States were formed, he’stands condemned) to the presentation of a petition, praying Congress (>to abolish slave- ery in the District of Columbia J7@ and the slave trade among the States. He made this charge and eballenged any one of his friends to deny it. It is a part of the records of the coun- try, and stands up in judgment to rebuke and) % condemn the upholy and wicked attempt of him | and his friends to identify Mr. Clay or the whig party with the accursed crusade -now being waged against the domestic instittutioas of the South, “This was the only of the Locofoco candidate. which he desired to ¢ me i or hes licothe district ator for six years al One vote eclegied ‘hite from Vermont in 1822, aad ame in a canvass where’ 6,00 The following case of the remarkable : aie in 1880, Dan.

In the first place, they all believe that my friends have the power of deciding the question—and.then, that I have .the power of controlling my friends ! Acting upon this supposition, in the same hour, I am sometimes touched peed on the shoulder by a friend, (for example, of Gen. Jackson,) who will thus address me: “ My dear sir, all my dependence is upon Per don’t disappoint us ; you know our partiality for you, next tothe Hero, and how mach we want a Western Pres- ident!” Immediately after, a friend of Mr. Crawford will accost me—*“ The hopes of the Republican party are concentrated on you ; for God’s sake preserve it; if you had been re. turned, instead of Mr. Crawford, every man of us would have supported you to the Jast hour: we consider him and you as the only genuine Republican candidate !” Next, a friend ot Mr. Adams comes, with tears in his eyes—* Sir, Mr. Adams has always had the greatest respect for you, and admiration of your talents; there is no station to which you are not equal—most undoubtedly you were the second choice of New England—and I pray you to €ofsider seriously whether the public good and your own future interests do not point most distinctly to the choice which you ought to make.” How can one withstand all this disinterested homage and kindness 1? Really, the friends of all the three gentlemen are so very courteous and affection- ate, that I sometimes almost wish that it was in my power to accommodate each of them ; but that being impossible, we are beginning to think seriously of the choice which we must fi- nally make. I will tell you, then, that I be- lieve the contest will be limited to Mr, Adams and Gen. Jackson. Mr. Crawford’s personal condition prechides the choice of him, if there were no other objection to his election. As the only alternative which is presented to us, it is sufficiently pa'nful, and I consider whatever choice we may make, will be only a choice of evils. .To both of those gentlemen there are strong. personal objections. The principal dif- ference between them is, that in: theelection of Mr. Adams we shall not, by th example, inflict any wound upon the character of our institu- tions; but I should much fear hereatter, if not during the present generation, that the election of the General would give to the military spir- it a stimulus and a confidence that might lead to the most pernicious results. I shall, there- fore, with great regret, on account of the dilem-. ma in which the people have placed us, support Mr. Adams. My friends are generally so in- clined. What bas great weight with me, is the decided preference which a majority of the delegation trom Ohio has for him over Gen. Jackson. If, therefore, Kentucky were to vote for the General, it would possibly only have the effect of dividing our friends, without defeating ultimately the election of Mr. Adams. Three of. the four States favorable to Mr. Crawford, are believed to prefer Mr. Adams to the Gene- ral. Virginia is one of them. I am inclined to think that nearly three-fourths of our delega- tion have yielded to the influence of these views, and will vote for Mr. Adams. My friends en- tertain the belief that their kind wishes towards me, will, in the end, be more likely to be ac- complished by so bestowing theirvotes. I have, however, ‘most earnestly entreated them to throw me out of their consideration, in bringing their judgments to a final conclusion, and to look and be guided solely by the public good. If [ know myself,that alone has determined me. Your Representative is inclined to concur with us in these sentiments and views ; and, if they should meet your approbation, as I know he has great respect for your opinions, I would be glad if you would, by the return mail, address a letter to him to strengthen him in his inelina- tion. Be pleased to show this letter to Critten- den aione. I remain, faithfully, your friend, H. CLAY. F. P. Brare, Esq. Wasutnoron, 29th January, 1825.

How direct is the application to ourselves of néarly all the subjoined very striking passage ! “If Lord Aberdeen is a peace Minis- ter, he is emphatically what an English Secretary should be. It is high and re- sponsible position : respunsible to England —to Europé—to the world—to all men, and to authority far above man’s—for a vast amount of human happiness and mis- ery. He may be said to hold in his hands the keys of peace and war. Can any one, withasound head and right feelings, doubt which he oughttochoose? Yetthe Whigs talk as though it were the choice _privi- lege aud highest duty of an English Min- ister to embroil the whole of Christendom in a wanton war between its two chief nations. Lord Aberdeen has chosen the better part. He has determined to pre- serve the peace of Europe—if the peace of Europe can be preserved without trea- son to England. And we think with him, that these twogreat objects—the tranqui- lity of Europe and the dignity of this coun- try—are not incompatible. “In defending a pacific policy, we be- lieve we are taking a course most conso- nant to the wishes .of the best men and the best patriots in every State of Europe. War, for the sake of war, we denounce as a huge crime!’ No nation which volun- tarily, and without provocation, or on slight provocation, courts it, but commits a great iniquijy, and rouses a fearful Ne- mesis. For this reason we deprecate it. But a peace, hollow, ‘dishonorable, and founded on humiliation, we should de- nounce equally as the parent of a war the most cruel. Such a peace is out of the question. England would not endure it. And we have no appretension thatsuchis thé-only*atternative whieh may" save ts from a collition with France.” There is nothing which it is here so fit- ly insisted that an English Ministry should be, which is not, in every good, humane, and rational sense, as true, or even truer, of those who may, among us, direct and wield the public policy and power. There, the interests of Royal power and a dynas- ty, the ascendency of a privileged order, from Ministers are usually’taken; or into which they always pass, may well, at times, dictate external measures not the interest of the mere country. Placed as England is amidst rival. monarchies con- stantly aiming to encroach, she is often compelled to sacrifice even her domestic good to the exigencies around her of the ‘great European system and balance of power. Russia and France keep her a- roused, enforce her watchfalness against their enterprises, call her now to confront the one in the Levant and now the other in Africa. She has freland to manage, her own malcontents to bridle, her far- spread dependencies to preserve. How different the immense system which she has thus, at the hazard of all her own well-being at home, continually to guard in arms—how different from. any thing which our easy and secure position upon this continent presents! Here we sit without*a rival to threaten. No colonies entangle us, such as encumber Britain in Canada and the West Indies ; possessions which, like a fancy farm, cost more than they come to, and which wisé- Ministers would probably long ago have alandon- ed, but that the national pride dees ‘hot permit.

Mr. Quin- cy, @ prominent member of Congress, vio- lently opposed it, and took occasion to cast réproach on the name and acts of Mr. Jef- ferson, in connection with Napoleon Bo- naparte. On the'8th day of January, Mr. Clay’spoke in defence of the bill, and in the coutse of his speech thus vindicated his honored friend, Mr. Jefferson, from the assaults of his enemies : “ Next to the notice which the opposi- tion found itself called upon to bestow up- on the French Emperor, a distinguished citizen of Virginia, formerly President of the United States, hasnever for a moment failed to receive their kindest ‘and most respectful attention. An honorable gen- tleman from Massachusetts (of whom I am sorry to say it becomes necessary for me, im the course of my remarks, to take some notice,) has alluded to him in a re- markable manner. Neither his retirement from public office, his eminent services, nor his advanced age, can exempt this patriot from the coarse assaults of party malevolence. No,Sir; in 1801 he snatch- ed from the rude hands of usurpation, the violated constitution of his country, and that is his crime. He preserved that in- strument in form and substance and spi- rit, a precious inheritance for generations to come, and for this he can never be for- given. How vain and impotent is party rage directed against such a man! He is not more elevated by his lofty residence upon the summit of his own favorite mountain, than he is lifted by the serenity of his mind. and the consciousness of a well spent life, above the indignant passions and feelings of the day. No! his own beloved Monti- ceHo, is not less moved by the storms that beat against its sides, than is the illustri- ous man by the howlings of the whole British pack let loose from the Essex ken- nel. “ When the gentleman, to whom! have been compelled to allude, shall mingle his dust with that of his abwsed ancestors; when he shall have been consigned to obli+ vion, or, if he live at all, shall live only in the treasonable annals of a certain junto, the name of Jefferson will be hailed with gratitude, his memory honored and and cherished as the second founder of the liberties of the people, and the peri- od of his administration will be looked to as one of the happiest and brightest epochs of American history. “But I beg the gentleman’s pardon.— He has indeed secured to himself a more imperishable fame than I had supposed. I think it was about four years ago that he submitted to the House of Represen- tatives, an initiative proposition for an impeachment of Mr. Jefferson. The House condescended to consider it. The gentle- man debated it with his usual temper, mod- eration and urbanity: The House decided upon it in the most selemn manner; and, although the gentleman had some how ob- tained a second, the final vote stood, one for, and one hundred and sixteen against the sition! The same historic page that transmitted to posterity the virtue and the glory of Henry the Greatof France, for their admiration and example, has pre- served theinfamous name of the fanatic assassin of the excellent monarch. The same sacred pen that,portrayed the suf- ferings and crucification of the Saviour of mankind, has recorded for universal exe- cration the name of him’ who was guilty —not of betraying his country—but a kin- dred crime—betraying his God !” When the proposition, above alluded to, was made by Josiah Quincy to jmpeach Thomas Jefferson, Mr. Clay rose in his place and exclaimed—* SIR, THE GEN- TLEMAN SOILS THE SPOT HE STANDS ON !—Ohio Journal.

For the Watchman. Messrs. Eprrors: I felt proud the other day as | crossed the Courthouse hill to witness what achange had come over our little Market-House. Having been denied the pleasure of perambula- ting the streets of Salisbury, for more than a fortnight, I knew not, of course, what was going on in them ; and you may well judge of my sur- prise when I first beheld in the spot, where, lately, one of the most dirty, broken, delapida- Med buildings had stood, a most neat, cleanly and genteel house. It now really appears as if it were intended for some of the purposes of man. Not so before: A few days ago the unless it were in very small portions to the fleas —but to contend with each other for lodgings over night ; and [ doubt not that those who re. side in the immediate vicinity must often have been annoyed by the nocturnal swinish skirmi- shes that were wont to come off there. But a better state of things is promised: Our Town Commissioners have passed a new law in rela- tion tothe Market-House ; ‘and although I have not seen the programm or edict, yet I judge from appearance about the building, that one section of it is, That no poor, noisy pig, or raw- boned, distempered ox, can find admittance.— Whilst fat and decent porkers, and plump and healthy kine are always welcome, and will never fail to find a block, and plenty of hands to wait upon them. In conclusion, I would tender my humble thanks to the Commissioners for this timely dnd most excellent work ; and I hope they will not relinquish their new chargeé-and not permit it a- gain to become a public nuisance. Q. From the Raleigh Register. Mr. Gatgs: I witnessed a scene on the 28th of September, at Shield’s Gold Mine, in Moore county, (N. C.) which excited in me more en- thusiasm in the cause of the whig party than any little incident I have ever been witness to. There had been an appointment made tor the whig Elector of the district to address the peo- ple of Moore at that place, and he, in company | with Dr. F. J. Hill.and others, sat off for the mine. What was our.astonishment, upon reach- ing the place designated for speaking, to behold a Clay flag flying at the top of a liberty pole. Heré, in the midst of a pine forest, barren’ and uncultivated, with scarcely the marks of civili- zation along the bridle paths leading to this Ophir of North Carolina, was seen the stars and stripes of our glorious Union waving in the breeze. There was not a very large collection of people, on account of the inclemency of the weather. - Mr. Waddell, the candidateéfor elec- tor, however, addressed the meeting ina-few pertinent remarks, and introduced Dr.. Hill to | the company, who went into a speech of some | length upon the topics of the day.

Each of the Ladies have pre- sented their partictular “lord” with an heir, in the person of a fine, fat, bouncing I have been assured on the most con- clusive authority, that a twin birth of the same character as that of the Siamese Twins has taken place in the county—the rival twins however were still born. It is said that Chang and Eng, with their wives and children contemplate ma- king a tour through thiscountry in the course of a year ortwo. The twins en- joy excellent health—are very lively, talk- ative, and apparently happy; and will doubtless prove more interesting and at tractive.in their second tour than they did in their first ever the civilized world.

The Richmond Whig says in 68 counties heard from. the popular. vote stands whig 20,519. Locofoco 19,163.— Last year the remaining 25 counties voted thus, whig 5,163, Locofoco 4,794. The whigs are not dead in Maine. Elec- tions to fill certain representative districts have resulted thus : Mammouth and .Greene—whig repre- sentative by 60 majority. At the Gover- or election, ( Neweastile and Edgcomb—whig Rep- resentative;by 85 majority. At. the Gov- ernor election, 3 Loco. Heman Chapman, Loco, was elected in Nobleboro’ by 2 majority. At the Gover- nor election the Loco majority was 216. Asa Merrill, whig, is elected in Buxton. At the Governor election there was a Lo- co majority of 98, No choice for representatives in the fol- lowing towns which at the Governor elec- tion gave the Loco majorities named : Durham, 20, Gorham 26, Windham 54, Harrison 19,.

Two young men, one with a black lea- ther cap.on his head, and military buttons on his.coat, satin close conversation about sixm ‘ago, inthe bar room of the hotel: i*Ebesubject that occupied their at- tefition seemed to be an exciting one, at least'to-him of the military buttons and black cap, for he emphasized strongly, knit his brows awfully, and at Jast went sofar as to Swear a terrible oath. “Don't Permit yourself to get excited. Tém,’_ interposed the friend. ‘It won't help the matter at all’ *But.l’ve got.no patience.’ **Phen it’s time you had some,’ coolly ‘If youintend push- ing your way. into the good graces of my lady «Mary. Clinton, you must do some- thipg-more than fume and swear about the-titile matter of rivalry that has sprang u Yes; but-tothink of poor milk sop of an ~duthor—author !—pah !—io think, | say, of a spiriiless creature like Blake thrusting himself in between me and such n git as Mary Clinton; and worse, gain- ing her notice, is‘too bad! He has sone- iéered her evebrows no doubt—flattering her in verse, until she doesn’t know who or where She is—and in this way become a formidable rival. But 1 won’t bear it.— ri—rui——’ *What will you do? ‘Do? Damme! Pll—l!’ll wing him! That’s what I'll do. I'll challenge the pup- py, and shoot him !’ And the young Lieutenant, for such he was, flourished his right arm a la duello, and looked pistol balls and death. “But be won’t fight, Tom.’ *Won’t he?’ The Lieutenant’s face brightened. ‘Then I'll post him for a cow- ard! That’Jl finish him. All women hate cowards. I'll post him—yes, cowskin him into tha bargain, if necessary.’ ‘ Posting will do,’ half sarcastically re- plied the friend. ‘But on what pretence willhyou challenge him? “That would be quite according to the code of honor,’ replied the friend quietly. The young military gentleman we have introduced “was named Redmond. The reader has already penetrated his charac- ter. In person he was quite good looking though not the Adonis he deemed himself. He had fallen deeply in love with the ‘aores’of charms’ possessed by a certain. Miss Mary ‘Clinton, and was making ra- pid inroads upon her heart—at least he thought»so—when a young man well known in theliterary circles, made his ap- pearahee, and was received with a degree of favor that confounded the officer, who had alrendy begun to think himself sure of thé prize. Blake had a much readier tongué, and could, therefore, in the mat- ter of mind, at least appear to much bet- ter.advantage than bis rival. He had al- so Avritten ard published one or two pop- ular books. ‘This gave him a standingas amanuthor.~ Take him all in all, he was wTival to he feared, and Redmond was nét long in making the discovery. What was tobe done? A military man must not-be beaten off by a mere civilian. The rival mist be gotten off insome way. The professional means was, as has been seen, thought*of first. Blake must be challeng- eapre killed off ; and then the coast would A*few days after this brave and honor- able determination, the officer met the au- thor in a public place, and purposely jos- tled him rudely. Blake said nothing, thinking it possible that it might have been only an accident. But he remained near ‘edmond, to give him a chance to repeat the insult, if such had heen his intention. It was not long before the author wasagain jostled in a still ruder manner than before, at the same time that some offensive word Was muttered by the officer. This was in the presence of persons, who could not help hearing, seeing, and wnderstanding all.” Satisfied that an insult was intend- ed, Blake looked bim in the face for a mo- ment, and then asked, loud e heard all round— expngh to be ‘Did you jostle me intentionally ?- ~ - |. ‘I did, was the angry retort. ‘Gentlemen never do such things?’ AS Blake saidthis with marked empha- sis; he looked in the officer’s face. * You'll hear from me sir.’ And as the officer said this, menacing- ly he turned and walked away with quite a military air, <n *There’s trouble for you now Blake.— He'll. challenge you!’ said two or three : Ba you think so bd crtain ‘a H > . . . : is his trade” e548 officer. Fighting “Mell, let him, .¢ 5. 5 2 * What'll you do? , * Accept his challenge, , speak hin? ee _* Certainly.’ 4 * He'll shoot*you.’ «Pm not afraid.’ Blake-returned with a friend tohis lodg- ings, where he fouud abillet already from Redmond, who.was all eagerness to ‘wing. his rival. «AE Resa On the next. ing two friends of the : e fight of arranging the ses. quite as serious an affair as if pistols were cht? O, c€ ° Well, then, ‘You cannot be serious?” ‘ Never was more so in my life. By the code of honor, the challenged party has the right to choose weapons, place of mee- ting, and time. Is not that so? ‘ Certainly.’ ‘Very well. Your principal hax chal- lenged mine. All these rights are of course weapons with which he is most familiar. The weapon he can use best is the pen; and chooses that. If Lieutenant Redmond had been the challenged party, he would of course, have named pistols, with which he is familiar, and Mr. Blake wouldhave been called a coward, a poltroon, or some- thing as bad, if, after sending a challenge, he had objected to the weapons. Wil your principal find himself in any differ- ent position if he declines this meeting up- on like grounds? IJ think not. Pens are as good as pistols, at any time, and will do as good execution.’ ‘Fighting with pens! Preposterous ‘ Not quite as pe panei as you might think. Mr. Blake has more than insinu- ated that Redmond’s no gentleman. For this he is challenged to a single combat that is to prove him to be either a gentle- man or not one. Surely the most sensi- ble weapon with which to do this is the pen. Pis‘ols wont demonstrate this mat- ter. Only the pen can doit. So the pen is chosen. Inthe Gazette of to-mor- row morning, my friend stands ready to prove your friend no gentleman. Let him stand on the defensive, and that a gentle- man has the right to insult publicly and without provocation whomsoever he plea- Depend upon it, you will find this used.’ ‘I did not come here, sir, to be trifled with.” ‘ No trifling in the matter at all. Iam in sober earnest. Pens are the weapons. The Gazette the battle ground.— Time early as you please to morrow morning. Are you prepared for the meeting ”” ‘No.’ ‘Do you understand the consequences?” ‘What consequences!” ‘ Your principal will be posted as a cow- ard before night.’ ‘ Are you mad?’ ‘No. Cool and earnest. We fully un- derstand what we are about.’ ‘The officer’s second was non plussed.— He did not know what to say or think. He was unprepared for such a position of affairs. ‘Pil see you in the course of an hour,’ he at length said, rising. ‘Very well. You will find me here.’ ‘Is all settled ?’ asked the valiant Lieu- tenant, as his second came into his room at the hotel, where he was pacing the floor. ‘Settled! No! Nor likely to be. I ob- jected to the weapons, and, indeed, the whole proposed arrangement.’ ‘Objected to the weapons! And pray what did he name? A blunderbuss ?” ‘No, nora duck gun with a trumpet muzzle. But an infernal pen /” ‘A What?’ ‘Why, curse the fellow, a pen! You are to use pens—the place of meeting, the Gazette—time, to-morrow morn- ing. He is to prove that you are no gen- tleman, and you are to prove that you are one, and that a gentleman is at all times privileged to insult whomsoever he pleases without provocation.’ ‘ He’s a cowardly fool ? ‘If the terms are not accepted, he threat- ens to post you for a coward betore night.’ ‘What P ‘ You must accept or be posted. Think of that The precise terms in which the princi- pal swore, and the manner in which he fumed for the next five minutes, need not be told. He was called back to more so- ber feeling by the question— _ Do you accept the terms of the meet- ing ? " ‘ No—of course not. The fellow’sa fool.’ ‘ Then you consent to be posted. How will that sound ?” . Fl_eut off-the rascal’s ears if he dare do such a thing.’ ‘That won't secure Mary Clinton, the cause of this contest.’ ‘Curse it, no? ‘With pens for weapons, he'll ‘ wing’ you a little too quick.’ ‘No doubt. But the public won't bear him out in such an outrage—such a vio- lation of all the rules of honor.’ * By the code of honor, the challenged party has the right tochoose weapons, ect.’ * I know,’ ‘ And you are afraid to meet the man you have challenged upon the terms he proposes. That is all plain and simple ‘ oa what's to bedone ?” * You must fight,-apologize, or be post- ed. There is noalternative.

You have already some’ knowledge of its ge- ography. The first and second regions differ most materially in almost every thing. I shall only speak of this, the first region, lying along the sea coast. Asyou come down the Columbia River from the cascade, where the first region 4erminates, you see high mountains on each side of che view, running close to its banks, and covered to their yery summits with heavy bodies of pine and tir. ‘There are some narrow bottoms along the river, which are covered with grass, but which overflow in the summer. You see many beautiful water-falls, some of them 400 feet per- pendicular. Mill privileges are plenty. When you get about fifteen miles above Vancouver, the mountains become lower on both sides, and gen‘ly decline into wide valleys, covered with fir timber, a species of pine. The neck of land between the Wallamette and Columbia, about five miles across, is a rich bottom, but over- flows every summer by the rise in the Co- lumbia, which rises just like the Missouri, highest in June and July. ‘The Wallamette has a high, but single ridge of mountains on the west bank, and on the East bank, for several miles, this wide valley is covered with fir and cedar. When youcome along the rivers, you will therefore see nothing inviting except beau- tiful streams and most splendid timber. When you get to Linnton, youtake through an immense body of most beautiful fir, Fallaty Plains, (prairies.) which are, cer- tainly, the most Heautifil you ever saw. They consist of a succession of small prai- ries about three miles long, and from one to two miles wide. ‘These plains, as they are herc called, bear away to the South- west, until they connect with the wide and beautiful country upon the Yam Hill River, which runs into the Wallamette above the Falls some twenty miles and heads in toward the sea. This Yam Hill Valley runs within fifteen miles of the sea. The Fallaty Plains are almost surrounded by a ridge of mountains, in the shape of a horse-shoe, the open end toward the Yam Hill country. These plains lie as handsomely as you would have them, just rolling enough to carry off the water, are rich, and have no gravel or stone. The soil is black, on a clay foundation. The timber comes up to the very edge of the prairie, so that in five steps you can be out of the prairie and in the thickest, tallest, most beautiful timber you ever saw. The trees are mostly fir, from very small saplings to one and a half diameter at the foot, and about one hundred to one hundred and fifty feet high, and as straight as pine timber generally is. Along all the is plenty of ash and white oak timber, which makes excellent firewood, &c.— These plains are ccvered with a green grass, as rich as blue grass, which is green all winter. You break up prairie here, with one yoke of oxen or two horses. The hills and mountains upon the border of the prairies in this country are covered with grass, as fine range as could be imagined, and which can never be exhausted. The whole Wallamette Valley, three hundred miles long, and from fifty to one hundred miles wide, is about sash a country as | have described to you. and most of it is yet unoccupied by apy one. Farming is, perhaps, the most profitable of all business done in this country. Itis SO eas have such little branches that run from the prairie, | tle ofthe matter.

Oxen from seventy-five to one hun twenty-five dollars per yoke. finest country for raising cattle you ever saw. They keep fat all winter. Batter sells at twenty to twenty-five cents. And, what I did not expect to find, this is a good country for hogs. At all events, yon have here plenty of grass, a root they call wap- pato, and also plenty of white oak mast. A first rate market can be had here for any and every thing, and you have never seen business more brisk. Times are first rate.and every bedy busy. The manu- facturing power is unsurpassed in this world. There are more fine mill sites than youeversaw. Such water-power as that at the Falls of Platte can be found any where. The timber of the country is fir. white cedar. oak, ash, maple, cherry, cotton wood, & some o’ hers you never saw. Great plenty of wild fruit here. The hazel and elder grow here ten times as large as in the States. We make hoop poles and scrub broems of the hazel. You will find trees here even more than three hundred feet high. The tall timber is at the mouth of the Columbia, and in the Cascade mountains. But even here it is two hundred to two hundred and fifty feet high. The other day we cut dow a_fir- tree, and cut it toward Cooper’s house, not dreaming it would reach it ; but when it fell it knocked his roof severely and some of the limbs went over the house. It took Cooper all day to repair his house. I will not persuade you, nor will } any of my friends, to come to this country; but were I in the States again, I should cer- tainly come myself. _For $300 you could purchase 100 heifers; and ‘driving them here, you might loose from tive to ten! when you reached here, they would be worth $4,000, and in ten years, without labor or expense, would make you a splen- did fortune. You can move here with less expense than you could to Tennessee or Kentucky. Your provisions, teams, &c. you have: Your oxen and wagons, and especially vour fine American horses and mares would he wer-h double as much as as they would cost you there: There are very few good American horses here. The Indian horses are not so gentle as the American, nor so fine blooded. The American cattle are greatly superior to the Spanish for milk, as they give more milk aud are more gentle—but the Span- ish cattle are larger. Cows have calves here from 15 to 20 months old, and sheep have lambs twice a year. in some parts of the territory. The reason is, they are al- ways fat, and get their growth much soon- er.

The country is divided into two great parties, and ere. is ane great topic on which these will all; of course, understand me to al- Tade’to the protective question. There is certainly a very large as well as very im- portant majority of one of these great partiés in favor of a full and adequate protection to our domestic interests, while the: whole {without any sensible differ- ence) of the other great party is in favor of free trade, and directly opposed to pro- tecting the domestic interests of the coun- {Cries of *That’s the truth.”] That isthésimple truth, my friends—that is the @xact state of thecase.- This has become the great prevailing party distinction.— Thus, for-instance, in ve part of the coun- try.where | live, the sense of a very large majority isin favor of the protective poli- cy. And_yet_ in certain districts where the political majority is in favorof the oth- er party,a contrary policy in regard to the protective principle is also found to pre- vail: Thus, even in New England. there are to be found States that are opposed to the-protective policy. This is the case, shiré ; and in many of the States south of the Potomac the feeling seems to be an almost tniiversal one where the politics of the opposité ‘party prevail. Thus, then, we say that this great question divides the two great parties by a line so broad and distinct that he who runs can readily de- fine it—Protection or no Protettion, Tariff or-no. Tariff !

It is a Locofoeo fraud. 7 The following ‘is part.of an article by the intelligent and bold editor of the Columbia (8S. C.} Chronicle, who in the midst of the Locofo- co nullification of that State, has maintained his yurnal true to Whig principles and the Union. The facts here stated ought to open the eyes of “ Annexationistg.” “Tue Texas-Homsve.—We happened, du- ring the sumimer;to travel in company with an intelligent ‘Texian,who had abandoned that country in disgust, with the intention of settling in this, of which he is_a native, In reply to queries propounded to him in. regard to thé a- mount of the debt of Texasand the quantity of vacaut land within her borders, he answered that he * had no doubt her debt amounted to at least fifty millions of dollars ; that, exclusive of her foreign debt, which had never been proper- ly estimated, she owed her own citizens for large sums of money borrowed from them, and for provisions supplied and taken to subsist her troops ; that, as regarded varant lands, there was not an inch of ground in ‘Texas worth own- ing but what was covered three grgnts deep ! We were first inclined to doubt his statements, but-have since been led to believe they were nearly correct, It must-have struck every un. biassed mind, on reading the correspondence ac- companying the form of the late treaty, as a ve. ry singular fact, that the commissioners appoint- edon the part of Texas to negotiate it could not tell what the amount of her debt was! Is it possible they were as ignorant of it as they pre- letded tobe? We think not. At any rate, there is not much faith to be put in the state- ments of a Government that cannot tell what is the amount of its liabilities. Our little Florida wat, which lasted only a few years, against a landfu] of Indians, cost the country upwards of hety millions: and will any body believe: that he protracted Texas war cost that nation less tan double that amount ?” DECIDEDLY COOL. The party which has lost three governors with- ia three weeks—Manrytanp, New Jersey, and Ouio having this month chosen Whig Chief Magistrates in the place of Locofucos—is talk- ug largely of its astonishing gains in every garter! In Pennsylvania it chose its Govern- w three years since by twenty-three thousand ; ww it has run in a far better and more popular man by forty-five hundred, in three hundred thousand. The Locofocos of Pennsylvania ne- wr before elected a Governor by so slender a majority as now, while it is well known that thousands of Tariff men voted for Shunk who we hostile to Polk as a known adversary Of pro- Wetion, And yet the party which has lost three overnors, one U. States Senator, and seen its confident expectations of gaining two others ut- erly blasted—lost the Senate of Ohio, which it tuled for seven years—lost two or three Sembers of Congress in Georgia, and encoun- ered a total route in New Jersey, is running t6 its most signal overthrow on record as thasis of comparison, and crying out “ Great Democratic gains !—all is going for Polk and Dalias!” If they cannot venture to compare fe present vote with any this side of 1840, why “ttake the Sate elections of that year to test fe State elections? Will it not be time to com. fre with the Presidential vote when we have ‘new Presidential vote to compare with it ? N. Y. Tribune.

It should, perhaps, he stated that he-finished his speech’ by'a beautiful eulo- gy upon the life, virtues, .and public services of Henry Cray ; and-erged.upon. the whigs the necessity of doing their duty, especially on the 4th day of November next, Afier he had sat down, Mr. Reid got up, and attempted to anawer (he said refute) the allega- tions which Mr, Boyden had made against the democratic party, and especially against their candidate, Mr. Polk. Bot it “is hard to kick inst the pricks.” He soon found that he had ipenee the wrong coon.. The whigs of old Wilkes are too well informed to be Polked! (Poked.) He algo attempted a eulogy upon the life and public services of Jawes K. Pox ! (which is soon told!) but before he had done, he was minus four-fiths of his audience, who had, by a sort of involuntary impulse, adjourn- feeling bursting into enthusiasm forcibly remind- ed Mr. Reid that he was in a Whig County ; and that Mr. Polk’s prospects here, aré as slim as any hickory sprow. Concluding, doubtless, that he had poked his nose into the wrong shop, Mr. R. took leave, next morning, without much ceremony. You may set us down good for from 13 to 14 hundred majority for Clay in November. VICTORY. For the Watchman. Agreeable to public notice, a respecta- ble number of citizens, solicitous for the establishment of a new County out of a part of Iredell, Mecklenburg, Lincoln and Catawba, assembled at the forks of the road, about three miles distant from Beat- ie’s Ford, the proposed site for the County of Graham, on Saturday, 12th of October. On motion, Wa. Emerson was called to the Chair, and Rod’t. J. Mc Dowell was ap- pointed Secretary. After a free interview and mutual ex- changes of opinions with regard to the im- portance of adopting the best means cal- culated to expedite the passage of an act by our next General Assembly, authori- zing the erection of the proposed County, the following resolutions, offered by G. T. Emerson, were unanimously adopted: 1, Resolved, That the great object of Government isthe welfare of the governed. 2. Resolved, That the interest of the cit- izens of this community would be greatly promoted by the erection of the County of Graham out of Iredell, Mecklenburg, Lin- coln and Catawba. 3. Resolved, That the Chairman of this meeting appoint two or more persons in each Captain’s district within the bounds of the proposed County, to procure signa- tures to a petition to be presented to our next General Assembly, for the establish- ment of said County. Under the last resolution, the following persons were appointed by the Chair. IREDELL COUNTY. Capt. Graham’s District—Wm. Knox, James Sloan. Capt. Howell's District.—Moses Whaite, Thos. McConnel.

From the Columbia 8S. C. Chronicle. EZEKIEL POLK’S TORYISM. The forged certiticates of. the Locofocos, at. tempting to prove that Ezekiel Polk, the grand- father of James K. Polk, their candidate for the Presidency, was nota tury during the Revolu- tionary War, having been detected and exposed, they now acknowledge and attempt to make a merit of his tory descent. Mr. Venable, a Lo- cofoco candidate on the electoral ticket of North Carolina, makes the following acknowledge. ment: “I admit the Toryism of Ezckiel Polk, but claim for his grandson, James K. Polk, the greater merit on that bad example, he is not a tery likewise, but a true friend to his country.” Well, this ia placing the matter upon the right ground af Jast. At the outset of the contest they claimed credit for him on account of the revolutionary services of his ancestors. This compelled the Whigs to show that he had no such claims, forgeries to sustain themselves. In these they have been exposed, and now they make a merit of necessity and .“* acknowledge the: corn.”— But bas the grandfather’s example had no effect on the grandson? Let the antipathy of James K. Polk to the claims of the Revolutionary sol- diers speak, tred to them that is hard to account for in any other way. We know that in this country trea- son does not legally work corruption of blood ; but no one who has studied human nature will deny that moral taints exist in families which are transmitted from one generation to another, Ask any farmer, and he will tell you from his experience that in cattle good or ill qualities are transmitted through all their generations within his knowledge. Man, to be sure, is a reason. ing animal, and susceptible of moral restraints, and consequently better able to overcome the biases of his nature ; but hereditary taints will at times show themselves in his person and character. James K. Polk is an illustration, in his antipathy to Revolutionary soldiers. Can the gallant sons of South Carolina, whose whig sires contended so nobly for liberty and inde- pendence, and who would have shrunk instinct- ively from any contact with tory blood, vote for the descendant of an OLtp Tory—one destitute too of any personal patriotic claim to their fa- vorable consideration?

[).) \BY pRoF- J. H. INGRAMAM. #One morning in May, 184-, I was seated in the "Gdfe*St. Louis; in New Orleans, reading a paperiand sipping eoffee, when a young man éntered and took his scat at the marble table nextto-me. “He was about twenty-two years of age, with fine features, and a dark hazel eye.of exceeding brilliancy. His complexion was remarkably pure and clear, with a rich rose-hye-upgn-eithercheek. His dark chesnut hair fell in flowing yet graceful masses far be- low his collar, He was fashionably attired; indéed, bis. dress was in the extreme of the mode. diamorid glittered upon his little fia- get dnd @ ruby of great size blazed amid the laced ruffles of bis shirt bosom. “He took his.seat with an easy, negligent air, apd; in. French, called for a bottle of wine. It wasibrought to him, and filling a tumbler with the Dleodired claret he drank it cff, and then Haig» raga cigar, began.to smoke. I ¥ observed him. more closely. He would hafe,been very handsome but for a fierce light —a ‘quick, lightning-like ‘glance: that flashed from fis eyes, “I.Saw. that a spark would en- pin a fiery nature into flame. “4 finished-my toffee and laid down my paper. As. F.did’so, it fell fromthe edge of the table, nnd lightly struck the boot of the young Creole. id not. deem=this of any consequence, but wasreminded:that it was regarded so by the young gentleman ; for I had not gone three steps from.my-seat, when I felt his little finger laid very lightly upon my arm. “Monsieur will apologise!” said the young iting bis eyes upon me, and speaking in or fe. “with an extraordinary emphasis up- hat shall -I apologise, Monsieur 2” I asked in surprise. ' “Por letting that Gazette touch my person.” «It fell from the table,” I said, half angrily, yet‘amused at his serious manner. “ Mousievr must apologise,” he repeated, in se@tone as hefore, It.was not a demand. authoritative one, but quiet, earnest, posite “Dhave no apology to make, Monsieur. The idea is-absard. - You jest.” “Tam In earnest,” he said seriously, his eyes fairly blazing... “So am I, Monsieur.” Twas passing, when he laid his forefinger again lightly upon my arm, and then drew from his*vest' pocket a richly inlaid card-case, and taking froro it a’card,. with a formal and mark- ed how;. presented it: between: two fingers to- wards ines _. k took: it.and read— MI CLES DE VerRgavx, ‘pais Rue Corondelet, Tbowed. respectfully to M.

One or two a pga gr to him‘in- furiated the young Creole. and with -», counte- names lid Re he drew fromhis waist- band a large broad-bladed stiletto, and sprang upon the man. Before avy hand could inter- {ere to arrest the blow, the flashing knife had descended into his bosom, and the haft struck audibly against the breast bone. Not satisfied with this, the assassin drew it forth, and with a second blow nearly severed the head of bis vic- tin from the body. A cry of horror ran through the apartment as the murdered man fell ‘fn his blood upon the sanded. floor.. The murderer stood with the reeking knife in his uplifted hand, his right foot advanced, and his eyes glaring with menacing fierceness upon those around him. Some one flew to the door and shouted for the gensdarmes, and a young man who was sipping coffee rose |:from his table, drew a pistol and advanced upon him, calling upom him “to surrender.” The only reply was a demoniacal smile of defiance, and a firmer grasp upon his gory wea- on. ° The young man slowly approached him with his pistol cocked, and the assassin’s eye was fixed upon hiin and the hand that held the knife nervously worked as if he was meditating a leap and a blow. The eye of the other was cool and steady, and he evidently expected the attack, but was plainly prepared to shoot him dead upon the spot if he moved to leap upon him. In this manner he had advanced within four feet of him, when the assassin’s knife glanced like lightning, not aimed at his breast, but at the pistol barrel, which be struck with such force, that it was knocked from his hand, and the brave youth stood at his mercy. ‘The assassin would have followed up this blow by burying the knife in his breast, when a Yankee shingle speculator from the Penobscot caught up an immense waiter with which he covered hi8 body as with a shield, and rushed bodily up- on him. The assassin struck mad'y at this singular defence with his knife, but the Yankee pressing him closely, suddenly stooped, and catching him by the feet, overthrew him. The next moment he was disarmed and bound ; and a little while afterwards three gensdarmes ap- pearing, he was taken to prison. This cold-blooded murder produced no little sensation throughout the city ; and as the young man was wealthy, and connected with the first families in the State, the public intérest was greatly augmented. Popular opinipn was sin- gularly divided as the day of his trial approach. ed. Heavy bets were laid and readily teken up that he would not be convicted. It was known that counsel had been employed by his family to whom the enormous sum of twenty thousand dollars had been paid. Lovers. of honorable and equitable administration of jus- tice trembled for the result. But there were too many who had faith in the integrity of the administrators of the laws, and that the assassin would not escape. The excitement among the lower orders was very high. It was the belief of this class that the murderer would elude jus- tice by means of gold and family influence, and deep and vengeful were their oaths of retribu- tion, should he be acquitted. The day ‘ot his trial came. The court was thronged, and the streets approaching it were crowded with an excited multitude. Justice triumphed. He was convicted. Shouts rent the air at the announcement; and when the sentence was known that he was to be taken to his prison, and thence, that day three weeks, led to the gallows for execution, the gratitica- tion of the concourse of people, was not mani- fested by a shout as at first, but by a dcep murmuring of satisfaction. Jules de Vereaur, ag we have said, belonged to one of the wealthiest and most aristocratic families in. New Orleans. He was naturally ofa proud. haughty, imperious spirit, full of fie- ry passions, and very sensitive “in points of honor.” He had shot a man (in a duel of course,) for looking at him hard. He had called out another for accidentally puffing cigar-smoke in his face. He had killed a third for speaking to his sister in a ball-room without a proper in- troduction. He might have killed a fourth for letting a newspaper fall upon the toe of his boot; but we are safe, and M.. Jules de Ve- reaux’s card remains with us as a memento mo- ri of himself. The sister to whom I have alluded was one of the most beautiful females in the capitol of the South-West. She was remarkable for her haughtiness and lofty spirit, She was like her | brother, but less vicious. His eyil qualities were tempered in her, and became aids to her fascinations. Men were bewildered by her beauty, but feared her. It is the night before the morning sct for the execution of her brother. From the first intel- ligence of his deed of blood, she had shut her- self up from all save him. Twice the proud girl had been permitted to visit him; the first time just after his*arrest, the second time after he received his sentence. She had now, with- in the last hour, obtained permission from the judge to visit him, to bid him an everlasting farewell, She left her stately mansion in Corondelet street just.atter dark. Alone and veiled she entered the carriage that was awaiting her within the porte-cochere. It drove to the g y city’ prison and stopped, She alighted and pre- sented her ticket of admission to the keeper, Bars and bolts were removed before her, and she was guided pis & dark corridor, and then descended into ariother that was beneath the foundations of the prison. At an iron-cased door at the extremity, the gendarme who was her guide, stopped, and remioving the bolt and masgive. bar, threw it open. “Madame wil} fiod the*eoiidemned there,” ihe said.coldiys. oe Hoseinut wil setienes tho ond of the pas: ge,’ she said; in a-fitmj:yoine { and the man tof tarts of coin fill into his alge, i | into his palry, 2 iretnrereeen ™ $60) yy the, and oe I ; rer the are sein 2 eae Bie cr ee, Age Ee chains Pe ogee: Fgh: She was very, very pale; but there was an unusual energy in the expression, of ber coun- fe u . m t .

Gold has’ been » offered without limit. -But the officers: will: not: be cotrupted.” “Then I must die.’ 1. must swing like a tel- on-froty the. galiows! Made the mock of the canaille! is is madness !” And lifting bis chained bands above his head, he clasped them together with an air of mingled defiance and: horror. - © You shall not hang upon the gallows, Ju- les,” said his sister firmly, her black-eyes light- ing up with an extraordinary fire. “Can you save me, then 7?” he erclaimed, seizing her hand and earnestly regarding the workings of her countenance. — “Yes, from dishonor!” she said, in a deep tone. . He stood silent. He covered his face with his hands. He shook from head to foot like an aspen! He had comprehended her! He knew her proyd, determined spirit too well not to un- derstand his sister's dreadful meaning. He groaned heavily. “J dare not!” he said faintly. “ You must! You shall not die on the gal- lows! You shall not leave infamy to all of your name! You shall die like a Vereaux! You shall die like a man!” “ Sister !” “Here is what will save the honor of your family. I have brought-it with me. ‘Take it, and after I embrace you, let the point boldly find your heart.” a. I would rather live till to-morrow! Life is sweet. Qne night and a few hours to-morrow is a long life to one condemned to die.” “This is weakness, Jules! I have come here on a sacred errand. My time is limited. I will not be defeated. The honor of our fami- ly must be preserved. Now let me embrace thee !” She threw her arms about his neck, and as she kissed his cheek, her tears fast trickled up- on his chains. She disengaged herself and stood up. She had left the dagger in his hand! ‘* Sister, this is fearful! Must I die?” “Are you a man andask me? Die, bravely and honorably! "Tis but a stroke! Die, and cheat the raging mob of their revenge! Will you hang dangling in the air to be a spectacle of scorn.and mockery? No,brother! Thank me that | have placed in your hand the means of rescuing your name from infamy.” “ Sister, farewell!” he said, in a trembling voice. “Give me your hand! Let me press it once more to my lips! Farewell! Itis a dreadful thing to die so soon! But I must! Farewell!” He raised his agitated hand to give the blow ! His hand trembled. She veiled her face with her hands and sunk upon her knees. She heard the fatal blow given!—the heavy fall ! She offered some wild words of prayer for his soul, and after a moment’s silence rose and gazed upon him. He had given the blow with unerring certainty. The stiletto was in his breast, and he was lying perfectly dead at her feet ! This extraordinary young. woman was.ar- rested for the murder but acquitted, the. gen- darme having at the moment come to the door and seen the prisoner strike the blow himself. Whether Jules. de Vereaux “ rescued his name from infamy” by committing suicide, is a ques- tion we shall leave for adjustment to a commit- tee of our readers. We have recorded only the facts as they transpired, for in the tale there is more of fact than fiction. FALL AND: WINTER FASHIONS UPor UB «a as. Ja EEC WO TAILORING ESTABLIHMENT !

Court has not. been published; the papers having been seal- ed, to -be laid before Congress when it meets. No doubt exists.that. Commodore Moore will be honorably acquitted; as. it appears that not-one of the charges pre- ferred against him was sustained before the court. Since the close of the procee- dings, public dinners have been given. to the Commodore by the citizens of Hous- ton and Galveston. The Commodore has quite recovered from his severe illness. The Galveston Civilian of the samedate SAYS : Excessive tains have visited this vicini- ty during the. past week. We apprehend that cotton in the field has sustained con- siderable damage. The Civilian of the 21st ult, in noticing, the report just published in this city, that 10,000 Mexicans had just arrived on the RioGrande, for the invasion of Texas,says: If there ever was danger of the ruin of a country by lying, that is Texas. We are not satisfied to allow Mexico to exert herself incessantly to impair eonfidence in our country abroad, by stories of inva- sion, but our citizens must continually en- dorse and scatter these baseless threats, thus adding to the injury, and often giv- ing point tothe missilesaimed.at us, which would otherwise be harmless. It appears from this, as well as fromthe tone of the Texas papers generally, that the people of the ‘Lone Star’ Republic don’t think half as much about Mexican threats of invasion as the Tyler Cabinet at Washington does, or pretends to do. An article appears in the Civilian of the 21st ult, in reference to a suggestion made some time ago, by the Republican in this city, that Seth Barton, Esq., ‘ Randolph of Roanoke,’ as he styles himself in his epistles, was a very proper person to be sent as Charge d’Affaires to Texas. There is much meaning in the Civilian’s remarks; to whom they are applicable, we leave others to judge. The Civilian says: The remarks of the Republican relative to the importance of filling the office allu- ded to, are, we think, not without found- ation; and as the measure of annexation is a favorite one with the present admin- istration. of the United States, it is to be expected that some one will be appointed not adverse to it. We donot know enough of the gentleman named. by the Repubi- can, to say whether he is or.is not the most suitable person for the office. We will say, however, that we have seen some- thing of the effects of appointing Ministers to ‘ combat European influence,’ and that we think it neither a benefit or a compli- ment to Texas, to send a Minister here who, without information to justify the conclusion, will.assume a particular poli- cy on the part of our government on any given point, and then set to work to oppose that policy with our citizens, and to array them against the Government. We do not wish our country to become a bear garden for the conflicts of the agents of foreign powers, nor to see it torn by fac- tions under the name of French, English, German or American parties; and we. think that our government will best pre- serve the respect due to itself, as well.as promote the public quiet and welfare, by requiring promptly the withdrawal of any foreign Minister who shall so far trans- cend.his duties asto intrigue with the peo- ple, instead of negotiating: with the gov- ernment, in order. to promote the success of| any measure which he may be instruc- ted to urge. The United-Srates govern- ment has afforded instances of the proper conduct to. be-observed-gn suclr occasions, in its course, at different:times, towards a- Minister of France, and one from Mexico. The Civilian of the 7th ult, published.a letter from President Houston, addressed to, Santa Anna, and dated 29th July last, in reference to the rumored Mexican inva- sion, in which Houston uses. Santa Anna without gloves, and dares him and his ar- my to come on, promising them a. sound thrashing.

There, at:noonday, in the. presence: the assembled chivalry and beauty-of. land, all that remained of Inez de Castre, “his beautiful bride,” was. clad in purple and cloth of gold; °a royal crown was pla- ced‘ on those hollow temples’ onee so -fair ¥ chair of state, and Pedro stood beside her,. to see that none of the shuddering nobles failed todo homage by touching that flesh-. less: hand. Time, place, and cireumstance, all conspired to make the spectacle one of splendid horror. Never before nor since was the great lesson, of the frailty of: hu- man life and nothingness of earthly. gran- deur so:sternly taught; for even: he who had summoned this vast assemblage, that he might thus vindicate the fame of Inez and his own fidelity to her, was only moek- ed. by the pageantry of the scene. It're- stored her to him, indeed, but not in thé living and breathing loveliness which had won his affections. He had‘ avenged her death ; he bad made those haughty pobles. who feared disgrace if she became. queen over them, humble themselves beforé her dust. Still, the heart yearned: for: more ; but ajl that remained.more for him to do was to restore his queen to: the loneliness of the sheltering.grave.

We would invite the attention of the Whigs to the following article from the National Intel- ligenicer, as the last appeal which we shall have time to publish before the election. It embo- dies every thing that can be said on the impor- tance of the contest about to bé decided ; and we sincerely hope that every Whig will rightly conceive what is his duty in the present emer- gency, and discharge it with religious fidelity.

Shall these known oppressors and deceivers, of more than fifteen years of power abused again be trusted, not now for any falla- cious good they offer, but with the open plagues and curses which they bring? If so, prepare the black procession of At the wheels of that accursed car, bound fast in the most igno- minious chains, let the vanquished Genius of our freedom be dragged, his dishonored arms hang broken around him, our inver- ted flag trailed in the dust!

Politi- eal neutrality at any time is a great indi- vidual wrong, as well as a great public grievance. At times like these it is a great and heinous sin.

It is the first and only case of the kind we have heard of ! and, we think there is something wrong about it. Our Whig friend, we fear, has not had a fair chance to form his opinion. Perhaps he has been sick, and and not able to read the papers, latterly ; and some Democratic neighbor, or it may have been his Democratic Physician, has been crowing over him, in his weak state, and by boasting of their glorious victories inOhio! New Jersey! Delaware! Pennsy]- vania! Georgia! &c., for a moment filled with him doubt. Bat we venture to say, if Mr W. has scen the whig reports of these elections he has dismissed his doubts, the pledge of their veracity of Julians Alexan- & Co. of Charlotte, to the contrary not- withstanding. Let no whig have adoubt. That we any fature event can be.

MANNER or HOLDING raz ELECTION FOR ELECTORS, The Inspectors and other officers appointed to hold the elections, who may not be fully ac- quainted with their duty in holding an election for Electors, are referred, for information, to the “ Reyised Statute of North Carolina,” page 244. There are. many copies of the Book among the people—every Magistrate has a copy—and it’s presumed none will lack knowledge of his duty on this score. We would make a synopsis of the Act; but those interested would, perhaps, prefer seeing it at length, and. reading it as it appears inthe Book. We mention one thing however, and that is, that the officers at the dif-- ferent precincts must not make their returns for Clay so many, and fur Polk so many ; but they must retura the number of votes given for each and every-person voted for as an Elector. For instance, A. B. received (here give the num: ber of votes cast for A. B.) E. F. received (here give the number of votes cast for E, F.) .

Be wide awake for electioneering liés.— You will very likely have news, just-on t¥ eve of elegtion; that Mr. Clay is. dead, or has done some horrible thing, or that the Whigs in some sec‘ion have abandoned him. -There is nothing too incredible, nothing too monstrous, to be fab- ricated by a portion of our adversaries. .The villains who can persist in assuring the people of Pennsylvania that Polk zs friendly to the - sent Tariff or at any rate to a protective tafiff, will not hesitate to forge. Mr. Clay’s name to any document which might seem calculated to subserve their nefarious purposes. i 4. You have organized, we trust, the Whig. party in your township and precinct ; you have supplied every man of both parties who will: read with Whig documents on the great ques- tions of the day.. Now will you just see that no foul means are used to deprive the Whig cause of votes that fairly belong to tu? If_a man is set against us, that is enough. But there are thousands even now opposed to us who would vote for Mr, Clay if the Tariff and Texas ques- tions were clearly set before them, Thousands are now supporting Polk in the full belief that. he will not attempt to destroy the tariff, nor to annex Texas at the hazard of a war with Mexi- co. Press the facts home on their understand- ings, on their consciences, and they will, if not vote for Mr. Clay, withhold their votes from Polk. Will you each try to impress one candid conscientious neighbor with such truths ? 6. Be onthe watch for secretlies. Wherev- er a naturalized citizen is a Whig ho will be.a special mark for Locofeco deception and wile. Such were told in. 1840 that if Gen. Harrison ghould be elected they would all be sent out of e country ; now they are told that the Whigs burnt the Catholic churches in Philadelphia, &c. To ignorant men, the Tariff will be gross- ly belied and maligned in secret whispers. Are yon ready for all such devices ? 6. Be sure to devote the day before election to making the last preparations for the contest. See every man in your neighborhood ; know that he has not been secretly tampered with and disaffected ; know that he will start for the polls early on the eventful morning, and bas the means of getting there. Do not lay your head on a pillow that night until every thing is ready. Whig reader! do not understand us as speak- ing to some one else—to some esquire, or cap- tain, or head man—we mean you! * Can you not afford a few days to your country?

We bave todo with the sfatements and the infer- ences-of which the ‘circular mainly consists. We shall*show that the former are false in the most important ara, cither directly in the allegations which. they contain, or prsarot the omission of attendant and qualifying circum- stances ; And that the latter are unsupported even by the narrow basis of their own fabrication, The circular alledges that Shu#k the Demo- cratic candidate for governor of Pennsylvania was elected by a majority of 5,308, and adds a note of exclamation to indicate the astounding greatness of the success. This. statement we pronounce false, and rely. for our authority upon the Harrisburg Telegraph, which gives the of- ficial retarns. From these it appears that Shunk’s majority over-Markle is exactly 4,268, while his absolute majority over all Qpposing’ candidates is but 1,331; and this in a poll of more than 300,000 votes. But the circular does not state that Shunk was.in favor of the Tariff, or that he was opposed to_Texas. It does State that of the 312,471 votes given for members of Congress, the Democratic can- didates received but 153,843, being thus left in a dead minority of 4,781 in the popular vote : all of which statements are nevertheless true, and indispensable to a just exbibition of the ac- tual state of parties in Pennsylvania. Nor do these facts suggest to Messrs. Alexander and Co. the very obvious conclusion, thatto en- able that State to return 14 Locofocos to Con- ress out of the 24 to which she is entit‘ed, Fenasjlvadte must have been gerrymandered as infamously as- was North Carolina by the boys of the Legislature of 42. But in place of these naked facts which can’t lie, the Charlotte gentlemen choose rather to make the grave statement that “the Democracy of Pennsylva- nia, their brethren (Tariff or anti-Texas breth- ren?) that the old Keystone, is safe for Polk and Dallas by at least 15,000” !! We leave Pennsylvania with the single remark, that in the late election in that State, the Whigs have veri- tied their most favorable calculations ; and have gained upon the Locofocos according to their own showing, more than 18,000 votes. The circular goes on to say, that though the Whigs have elected their governor in New Jer- sey by amajority of 1,667, yet “the popular majority is with the Democrats ; and that they did’nt elect their governor because he “ fell be- hind his party ticket!!! . Ah! gentlemen, you have forgotten how Shunk run. You have for- gotten that he outstripped his “ party ticket” by r some eight or nine thousand votes,” and then won the race but by‘a single length. Circum- stances, however, it is said, alter cases. But let us look a moment at the “ party ticket ” in New Jersey as indicated by the vote for mem- bers of the Legislature. Last year the Loco- foco majority on joint ballot was 18. Now the parties stand in the Senate, 13 Whigs, to 6 Locos ; in the Assembly 40 Whigs to 18 Locos. If your man Thompson ran worse than that, please gentlemen, don’t mention it. The statement in regard to Georgia is slight- ly incorrect in point of numbers. ‘The 3,026 should he 2,255 according to the official returns. But the inference that the State is “certain for Polk and Dallas, is we think, rather broad. If the Whigs in any instance-have “given it up,” it must have been merely by way of argument, and because we cando “ mighty well” without tt. “ Little Delaware has a!so gone for the De- mocracy.” So says the Charlotte Committee. What says the fact? The only election which has recently been held in this State, and which may serve to indicate the condition of parties, was that for Assessors and Inspectors of elec- tions ; and in that election the Whig inspectors were chosen by exactly 87 majority. The last State to which the “ Committee ” particularly refer, is Ohio. And here in their bootless attempts to gather consolation from the “returns,” these sanguine gentlemen become confused, and talk quite at random. ‘“ The Whigs have elected the Governor and a majori- ty of the Legislature by the Democrats running double tickets.”” What the Charlotte men mean by saying that the Locofocos in Obio run a divine. We were aware that that class of gen- try were in the habit, here, and it may be in Ohio, of putting in tro tickets, or even three, up- on occasion for the same man. But that they stood ready to avow the practice, and worse than all, that they should attribute to it any defect they may have sustained, is certainly something for which we were quite unprepared. Perhaps, however, the result of this unfortunate practice to which the Locofocos of Ohio are alledged to to have resorted, may have been, that in at- tempting to go their “ double ticket,” they for- feited their right to vote at all! If so, and they have been clapped in jail for the next three months as has happened to several of their pa- triotic brethren in Baltimore, we need apprehend but little difficulty on their account. But, as if not’satisfied with their explanation of the vote of Ohio, these gentlemen bring for- ward the assertions of the Democratic press of Ohio, “that their State will not vote for Clay, as he will in all probability lose the abdlition vote.” | 1! nd We had seena similar intimation in the Globe: double ticket for governor, we are at a loss tog nt rmMeN ¢ atte | : aioe OLS behold th t prospécts, : ' crats” ! “and calls, with some apparent gravity of countenahce, upon the -of our State to “ come forth and vote for North Carolina's gi a son, James K.

But as it should seen, before the Alexan- drian committee had completed their doct- ment, other and more cheering news burst in upon them, whelming all in absolute astonish- ment. Baltimore had elected a demoératic mayor by 502 majority’ Egad; “Maryland is ours too! Hurrah!! Ah! gents, what was =x majority for governor in Baltimore, last ednesday four weeks 1 1222.

He declared himself in favor of Polk, and said all the Canadians are. in favor of Polk because they consider him opposed to the protection of American Industry. And yet we whigs, who go for the protection of American Industry, are stigmatized here at home as the “ British party !” The Great Hoar.—Governor Jones, of Tennessee, has written a letter to the Clay Club in Philadelphia, in which he Says : “1 cannot but regard the attempt that is making in your State to pass Jas. K. Polk off as the friend and advocate of protec- tion, as an outrage which, for impudence and falsehood, is unparalleled in the _his- in the more unsettled portions of Pennsylvania, of the democracy, who, when occasion offers, will “go a vote for Jefferson!” We can’t think, however, that any of our own people cou!d be induced to vote for Jackson, or in fact, that the benevolent committee at Charlotte re- ally intend any thing of the kind. It may be, however, that the system of double voting which has proved so disastrous to the democracy of Ohio is to be put in practice here. If so, it is to be presumed that the name of the old Roman, emblazoned upon its more prominent moiety in the style of capitals exhibited in the circular. To conclude, the object of this move on the part of the guardians of the Democracy of No. Carolina, hailing trom Charlotte, is perfectly ap- parent. It is prompted by the belief that there is a large number of individuals among us who will vote for Polk, if they can be induced to be- lieve that his isto be the winning side—that the election of Mr. Polk can be effected by proclaim- ing it certain. These individuals know full well, that if those States only, which have given whig majorities the past year, shall vote for Mr. Clay in the coming election, his success is cer- tain. ‘They know too, that scarcely a State has voted during the last year which has not exhi- bited large, very large whig gains over the im- mediately preceding years.

F. Barnwell C. H., Oct. 1, 1844. POWER OF FASCINATION OF SERPENTS. A correspondent of the Courier and En- 'quirer, in commenting upon the death of Dr. Stadlin at Saratoga, by the bite of a rattle snake, as previously related in our columns, remarks as follows relative to ‘the power of fascination so generally im- puted to the rattle snake :— The serpent’s power to charm is regard- ed with scepticism by a great many, but there are very many authentic instances on record. In Williams’s History of Ver- mont, a high authority, you will find some very interesting facts and comments on this subject, but case has come within my own knowledge which is worthy of ‘publication, and may throw some light upon it. It has generally been believed to be the fascination of the serpent’seye. This may have some effect, for probably there is no living eye which has such piercing bril- liancy and fascinating beauty ; but I have seen little birds under the spell, fluttering about the snake and drawing near, grad- ually, like the infatuated votary of vice, to its deadly tempter. It cannot be this altogether. The snake at such times keeps its head vibrating, its forked tongue darting, and its tail trembling, while the whole body moves like that of a creeping catterpillar. The case alluded to above was related to me by Nehemiah Gallup, a revolutionary veteran, who died about a year since, in Groton,Ct. He said that in the revolutionary war, when attached to Fort Griswold, in that town, opposite New London, he, in company with a num- ber of other soldiers, went out on a hunt- ing excursion and finding a rattle snake, some of which are occasionally killed, (one I believe last season, near the ‘Cor- ners’) in that town, they fixed their bayo- nets, and forming a circle amused. them- selves by teasing him till they all began to grow giddy and sick, when they killed him. They went on their way thinking no more about it, but gradually grew worse, /and on reaching their quarters, were so seriously indisposed as to require medical |advice; being troubled with excessive nausea at the stomach and vomiting.— Their physician made inquiry in reference Didnt 1 know hit: : = = . field skool! —a little kin of a age: cause his old nigger omar Venus was too lazy to mend em?!

The Bryde was dress- ed in a white muslin figured over a pink satin pettycote, with white gloves and sa- tin shoes, and her hair a curlin down with a little rose in it, and a chain aroun her neck. I dont know whether it was raal gool or plated. She look butiful, and Bill did look nice, and all the candydates and@ two preachers and Col.

We had a right good laff on old Parson Brown as he got through a marryin of em—says he, “I pronounce you, William Warrick ‘at the same’ me? who always rode to preechun with | dred and fifty dollars, or seventy cents a through the whole year. But: is a statement which exhibits ight the factin.aligh one must strike every. one at. the first sight... Suppose:then a man and ox cart should be employed for two hundred and fifty da in the year, collecting bank, earth, tussoe leaves, weeds, the parings and Serapings of | highways, swamp mud, openings of ditch- es, and refuse articles of every kind, and to carry-but six loads a day, throwing. up the materials and spreading -themgeom- pletely over the heap at the close Oey ery, day's work... Why, here would. be an ao- cumulation of one thousand five hundred loads at the year’s end. And allowing fifty cents a day for the man, and as much for the oxen, the cost would be two han- load; carriage, mixing and piling inchad- ed. Now if we consider that this enor- | mous accumulation would be an-addition to the means afforded by the barn and cat- tle yards, what can more clearly prove, that capital, so expended is money at.com- pound interest? And again, if, as the carts were emptied, the mass mixed with the stable manure, in the proportion of one load of dung to three of muck. &c., and after fermentation. the whole were turned over and pulverised, and mingled with a good solution of lime, why, the ad- vantages could scarcely be calculated. And it may be inquired whether this mode would not be far preferable to sending the team many miles to town, for a load. of stable dung, the cost of which and car- riage would be equal to about ten loads of this Compost. . It may be safely laid down as an axiom, then, that the aforesaid man and yoke of oxen would yield more profit by their Ja- bor than any half dozem teams otherwise | phere by tarning and mixing, is to throw of some kind. Indian corn, ground, is best. engaged on the farm. Few persons are aware of the fact, that the oftener the compost heap is turned over and pulverized, the richer its contents To carry abroad much trom the mated by frequent exposure to the atmos- away more than one half the profit to be derived from the system of composting. Fattening Pork.—Fatting hogs must now have as much as they can eat—they should be urged forward as fast as possi- ble before cold weather comes. They will gain more in one week now than in two weeks three monthshence. There is much inthe garden now that may be added to the mush for hogs. Pumpkins. refuse squashes, cabbages, apples, potatoes, &c. may be boiled up or occasionally fed out raw, just for variety—for pig is a gentle- man that prefers-a variety of dishes and a good dessert. Give him also your greenest corn, cut- ting up cob and corn and stalk, in inch or two long. He will eat all up clean while they are novelties in his pen. After all your main stay for fatting him up is grain Buckwheat comes next; rye is good mix- ed with Indian; and oats always make the breakfast relish well. You should bear in mind to let your gs have charcoal every year, therefore we name. it that you need not ‘sup what was said and done about it last-year will answer for this.

Explosion of the LUCY WALKER, sixty to eighty persons killed and wound- ed. It is with feelings the most acnte and painful that we record the following fear- ful disaster, and the loss of so many valu- able lives. The steamer Lucy Walker, Capt. Vann, left this place for New Or- leans yesterday crowded with passengers.

Several banners and flags floated in the air, also a board containing the following lines was held up dur- ing the proceedings of the meeting : “ Stand firm to the union, Brave sons of toil, And we'll conquer the tyrants Of Tees, Wear, and Tyne.” Mr. Mark Dent having been called to the chair, resolutions favorable to continying the union, though. betraying a greater disposition than-before to accommodate matters with the masters, were agreed to, and the meeting dis- persed.

The explosion was upwards, and that part of the boat above the boilers were blown into thousands of pieces. The U. S. snagboat, Ghopher, Capt. L. B. Dunham was about 200 yards distant at the time of the explosion. Capt. Diinham wasim- mediately on the spot, rescuing those in the water, and with his crew rendering all the aid in his power. To him we are indebted for most of our particulars. He informs us that the Lucy Walker was in the middle of the river, and such was the force of the explosion, that parts of the boilers and the boat were thrown on shore. Just after the explosion, the air was filled with human beings and fragments of hu- man beings. One man was blown up fif- ty yards, and fell with such force as to go entirely through the deck of the boat.— Another was cut entirely in two by a piece of the boiler. We have heard of many | such heart rending and sickening incidents. Before Capt Dunham reached the place where the Lucy Walker was, he saw a number of persons who had been thrown jnto the river, drown. He however saved the lives of a Jarge number of persons by them boards and ropes, and pulling them on his boat with hooks. Immediately af- ter the explosion, the ladies eabin took fire, and before it had been consumed, she sunk in 12 or 15 feet water. Thus is present- ed the remarkable circumstance of a boat exploding, burning and sinking, all in the space of a few minutes. The screams and exclamations of the females and those who wer€ not killed, is represented as having been distressing and awful. We believe none of the females on board were injured—some, however, may have been drowned. The books of the boat were destroyed, and it will be impossible ever to ascer- tain the names of or the number of those killed. There were at least fifty or sixty persons killed and missing, and fifteen or twenty wounded—some seriously. Capt. Dunham left the wounded at New Albany, all of whom were kindly and well cared for by the hospitable and humane citizens of that town. Capt.

On his trial, which took place before Esq. Boothe, he did not appear to evince much con- trition for his crime, but on the contrary seemed to consider it a very trivial affair. In reply to a charge made against bim by a Locofoco during his examination, of his beinga Whig, he replied that he had once beena Whig, and was then an honest man ; but he had chang- ed his principles, become a Locofoco, spent all his money at Locofoco gatherings, and on his way from the Kingsport meeting had concluded totry his hand at horse-stealing. He was fully committed for trial before the Circuit Court which commenced its session in this place this week ; and he bids fair to occu- hville a place similar to that of the illustrious Dorr of Rhode Island, who is incar- cerated in the Penitentiary of that State, a mar- tyr to Democratic principles.

The rain poured down n torrents, and. filled the stern boat as ast as one man could bale it out. By the ithing our crew could be g in| ine upon the deck, pass- ng buekets of rain water from the trunk o fill up the water-casks. The second day after this, in the after- oon, we were sailing to the eastwa slosé along the coast of Papau, which yere formed of beautiful elevated lands, covered with the verdure of perpetual ammer, and watered by purling streams d clear cool water. A great many of the natives came off in handsome canoes, with one out-rigger, for the purpose of trafficking with us. They were naked, with the exception of ornaments hung about their persons, and were stout, savage looking menof a dark copper color, with hair somewhat longer and straighter than the wool of the negro. Each canoe contained a goodly supply of powerful bows, arrows, spears, and war clubs, all ef which combined with the physical appearance of these natives, designated them @8 a race of fearless war- tiors. Theyseemed friendly, and we threw them tow-lines over the stern, and entered into trade for cocoanuts and jas- per-stone adzes.». They invited us politely be on shore, and said in one moon would bring us plenty of tortoise- Micll, pearl-shell, pearls, paradise birds, ‘ambergris, be che-de mer, gold-dust, os- ttich plumes, ivory, camphor. nutmegs, édible birds’ nests, palm oil, diamonds, &c. The wind now freshened up and our head-way increased, so that the canoes sheered about, endangering their outrig- gers, and were obliged to let go the tow- limes and drop astern. We now arrived opposite the mouth of a noble bay—it was a “new discovery!” The land was elevated, picturesque and verdant. The east point of the bay was a denuded red | day and rocky: bluff, from which put off ashéak With the usual daring of our captain, we boldly entered the bay, with all sail set. We now sighted a beautiful small bay, or mouth of a river, that ex- tended to the eastward from the foot of a gulf, On the beach, we spied a great multitude of warriors, hurrying along with bundles of war implements, and deposit- ing them in canoes which they launched | into the water, and put off for the vessel ftom. various coves and inlets. One war canoe, commanded. by a celebrated brave, was towed by one of our lines near the | stern. Our captain stood upon the taff-rail, eye- ing the accumulating dangers ; and think- ing that, when we anchored, and the crew Were aloft furling sails, the host of sav- iges Might be tempted to pick the sailors off the yards like so many black-birds, he determined to have a clear course while coming to, and so, to frighten the natives away for a brief period, he gave orders fire a blank cartridge from the six- Pounder. The gun thundered over the Water; but the effect was different from What he had expected.

The wind was quite light and it was impossible for us to escape. The captain | very jastly remarked, that “a retreating enemy emboldens the pursuers.” We ac- cordingly turned about, and steered for | the bay. mendous chorus which was taken up and | rolled over the bay, by thousands of voices, | accompanied by the sound of the tum- | tums, war conchs, and the soul-stirring | quick chorus of the flat side of the paddle- | blades struck violently against the sides of the canoe. Now and then, between the chorus, the king and the principal | braves stood upon the outriggers of their | respective canoes, and with javelins in| speéches to cheer | their followers to the one So great was | the din that the captain was forced to use | his speaking trumpet to be heard. I had heard of the Indian-whoop, but to be so feeble and few in numbers that they could do as they pleased with us. “Fore and main top-men, stations !” cried the captain. “ Armouier man the ket balls!” A large canister cont two hundred and fifty balls, a single dis- charge would thus carry terrible havoc savages within musket-shot. The crisis had now arrived ; the king’s flotilla closed in upon us; and, with a ter- rible yell, the warriors launched a volley of arrows at our vessel that bristled in the bow and rigging. They seemed to i‘ink themselves and their arrows quite invinci- | ble, and expected to see us, like the whale when harpooned, go into our “ flurry.” It | Was now our turn to chant our war-song. The crew stood ranged along their sta- | tions; each man had a cutlass swinging | by his side, a pair of boarding-pistols in | his belt, and near by stood his pike. “Yaw her off handsomely !” said the captain to me; “keep the broadside par- allel to the fleet! Give them a ball from | the six-pounder to splash the other side !” “Boom!” This “ war-ycll” checked for | @moment the impetuosity of the warriors; | but upon looking around and seeing that no injury had been done, they took it for granted that it had only been a spout, or | groan, or death-throe of the “sea monster” with whom they expected soon to have fine sport. The king and braves now urged their followers again to the onset by energetic harangues. Again they closed upon as, and discharged a valfey of arrows, which slightly wounded two of our crew, and one grazed my head too near for com- fortable and composed reflection. “Rake the fleet with a broad side !” roared the captain. We-gave a salute accordingly. Fora brief space the vessel was shroud- ed.in smoke, and remained in doubt as to the amount of damage we had done, The war-yell had ceased, and now, and as the smoke dispersed, we saw a scene of fear- ful devastation.

A breeze sprang up, and we set all sail; it was night, and we were once more up- on the ocean. A GHOST STORY.

The night came. and it | | was one of unusual darkness. We had really forgotten our man’s intention, al- | though we were talking over the subject of the disturbances until nearly midnight, and speculating upon the cause, in the /room where my children were happily sleeping, when we were startled by a tre- | -mendous discharge which was succeeded | by the deep coarse voice of the doorkeep- | er, exclaiming, “There he lies, the accurs- | | ed!” and a sound asof creature struggling | 'and gasping for breath. In the next mo- | ment, the man loudly called his fellow- | | servant, crying, “Come up, the accursed | is struck down before me!” and this was | followed by mysterious sounds that we; ' believed either a man had been shot and | | was in his agonies, or that our man had | ‘accidentally shot himself.

Cantor, 26tH May, 1844. } On thé'6th instant. we had a row with king part in the Chinese, no forei¢ners it but Americans. The new flag-s | . v flag-staff was ornamerited with a vane in the form of an. artow, gilded, which reflected the rays of the rising sun, far and near; its symmetry and beautiful workmanship excited admi- ration of foreigners. but to the Chinamen its erratic movements and eyer-varying position, pointing north and then South, yesterday east and to-day west, were por- tentous of evil; dark forcbodings were raised in the minds of the superstitious and excited people, in which mavy Hong merchants and mandarins participated ; but there was another class, the idle vag- abonds who swarm about Canton, whose fears were less excited than their hungry Simultaneous with the appearance of the gilded arrow came dry weather, and sickly season set in, both in the city and country ; and to the charmed arrow were ascribed the deadly effects of the cholera then raging. The attention of our Consul, Mr. Forbes, was called to the circumstance by a num- ber of véry respectable Hong merchants. and they requested him to. have the fatal arrow removed; at the same time ap- peared an inflammatory placard, ascribing the evils enumerated to the gilded arrow. The Consul, wishing to yield to the su- perstitions of the people, decided to take down the arrow, and for this purpose em- ployed a number of sailors: while they were engaged in lowering the top-mast of the flag-staff, the mob gathered around, first throwing stones, then rushing in and cutting the ropes,in consequence of which the top-mast came down “by the ran.” The mob ran off with the bal cardy &e., there being no resistance offered, the tu-. mult increased, and there was every ap- pearance that it would end ina riot, when the factories would be attacked, The destructive riots of 1842 began in similar manner; no Mandarins were now present to dispel the rioters, and immedi- ate action was necessary. At this juncture our Consul, with a doz- en Americans, repaired to the square, armed with muskets and pistols ; the mob retreated, but threw back a volley of stones, upon which one or two of the more excitable of the Americans fired, wound- ing three of the rioters; but the Consul restrained the men, using his exertions to confine them to acts of a strictly defensive The square was now in possession of the Americans, who remained till 4 p.m., when about two hundred soldiers arrived is the cell, replied the other,‘ and the fact In an instant | the cell, and throwing a collar over his neck, instantly chained him and so finish- ed this tragedy.— The Englishwoman in from an eighteen pounder amid a host of| er ball nor small shot.

One real evil of social life is thus ended. The man ri- ses in the morning, looks over the paper, | and is satisfied that he knows all worth knowing of the passing history of the world. He has nothing to tell and noth- ing to hear farther. He is not annoyed in the midst of his business or pleasures by the recital of affairs in which he takes no interest. The same with women. Cu- riosity is gratified without loss of time.— The scandal of the day has employed a hundred busy meddling tongues in its cir- culation and exaggeration, Conversation takes ahighertone. Principles of morals and taste are discussed, the new poem, the last book, the magazine, or the review, becomes, the subject of conversation.— Even in the minor matters of life, society owes a large debt of gratitude tothe news- papers. There is nothing so difficult to bear, there is nothing which requires so much cour- age of the most serviceable kind to endure, as anxiety in solitude and inactivity. The very movement of the mind when we suf- fer great agitation lightens its weight; but when we have to sit and count the live-long hours alone, confined to one small space, and limited to mere reflec- tion, thought becomes a burthen, and im- ination a torment, and every feeling of our heart seems to war against our place. . J te0 fs Two gentlemen | Has | with the mandarins. A slight skirmish took place, upon which the soldiers, aim- ing at the mob, fired in the air, and, under cover of their shields, charged upon the rioters, who were thus dispersed. Early on the following morning the square was again filled with rioters, not- withstanding the presence of the soldiers, and it was necessary again to raise the flag-stafi, that the flag might be hoisted in front of the consulate. The Americans again turned out with | muskets, cleared the square in presence of the mandarins, and remained on guard till all damages were repaired, the top-mast ' of the flag-staff raised to its place, and the | flag once more unfurled to the breeze. | Mr. Lay, the British Consul, apprehend- | ing the trouble, had sent to Whampoa for ‘marines. Fifteen were sent up to the | factories, and remained inside as a corps de reserve in case the Americans were ' overpowered, but the marines were not | called out. | The flag being again in its place, the | Americans retired from the square, and all | remained perfectly quiet. | The result undoubtedly produced a good | effect on the Chinamen—first, in showing | them that the Americans were ready to | respect their prejudices; second, that they | were ready and quick to defend them- | selves when attacked. | Many of the most respectable of the | Chinese have expressed their approbation ‘of the conduct of the Americans, consid- ering the interference of the mob unwar- ranted, and their attack wanton and un- provoked.” Result of Temperance.—At the recent assizes held at Kingston, Canada, Mr. Justice Hegerman, in addressing the jury, remarked that “he was happyte say that in his various circuits throngy mers he found crime sensibly on : and that he was confirmed in his opinion by his brother judges.

The suggestion contained in the par- has received, we presume, no counte- nance from Commodore Moore, and is probably without foundation. is THE AMERICAN REVIEW. We take this opportunity t® call the attention of the Whigs to the prospectus in another part of this paper, for publishing a monthly periodi- ) al under the ‘above title, to be devoted to Pol- ities, Literature, Arts and Science ; under the management of Georce H. Cotton, Esq., au- thor of the well known and deservedly popular “ Janitis Tracts,” and one of the most pleasant and humoréus Writers of the day. One great reason why this work should be well supported, is, that it may counteract as far as possible, the odious and revolutionary doc- trines promulgated in the Democratic Review and other kindred prints, which are spread throughout the land under the auspices of the Locopoko party. ' NATURALIZATION. FROM THE NEW YORK EXPRESS. Five Hundred Citizens made in one Day.— Four Judges were employed yesterday in ma- king American citizens, and the reports of three Courts, to be found in another part of our paper, record the summary process by which the work a done. .Those who were present at the rts speak of the scenes presented as humil- iating in the extreme. Every American mind and heart must turn from it with disgust, and the more so that the question of naturalization has become almost one of a party character.— Just upon the eve of an important election we find more than three thousand foreigners meta- morphosed ia the twinkling of an eye into citi- tens. In indecent haste, in a manner satisfac- tory to.no party, but the party who marshal them from Tammany Hall to the Court room, with- out sufficient. testimony, without time to hear ap- plicants or witnesses as they should be heard, five hundred citizens are made in a day, and three thousand in the course of a few weeks. What a scene for the country of Washington ! Hew fearful its example, and how pernicious its influences! But we have no time to comment upon the fact now, nor can any course of remark make stronger the facts -we publish. Scenz in THE Common PiEas.—Yesterday noon more than three hundred aliens had crowd- ed about the doors of the Common Pleas in the Pa Hall. _When, the room having been emp- ied through the windows, the doors were re- opened for frésh admissions, such a scene as was then witnessed has rarely been seen in an American court room. The doors were violently thrust in, and the avalanche of human beings came onward with such impetuosity as to over- throw every thing in its course. Coats were torn of hats were trodden under foot, men were crowded and jammed until almost lifeless, and in ‘wo orthree cases half an hour elapsed before they had recovered themselves sufficiently to speak, Outside of the*court room the crowd of foreigners was clamorous for admission, and it required the physical force of six officers tomake «mopening for one of the Judges. The court room Was filled and emptied not less than four times during the day, and among the crowd who were thoroughly jammed up were female witnesses ~well-looking women !—Exzpress.

A Missionary Shot. From the New Bedford. Mercury we learn that the whale ship L. C. Richmond, Captain Luce, had made that port in 103 days from Ota- heite; arriving on Thursday. Captain Luce brings intelligencé of the state of things exist- ing between the French and the natives. In March, 1844, about 500 natives attacked the French station at the Isthmus, of about 40 men—troops, and some few marines. ‘The na- tives were, after some hard fighting, repulsed. Their loss has never been correctly ascertain- ed. The French had two killed and five woun- ded. About 2000 of the natjves then entrenched themselves in strong force at the Bay of Ma- heina. On the 17th April,.Governor Brant at- tacked them with the frigate “Uranie,” and the steamer “ Phzton.” There were landed 500 soldiers and marines, who stormed the forts and entered them, sword in hand. The natives fought desperately, but after five hours’ hard fighting, they retreated with a loss ot from 200 to 300 of the bravest warriors on the island. The French lost in this engage- ment 16 kiJled and 52 woéunded—7 have since died of their wounds. the steamer was the first man killed. He died at the head of his detachment upon the walls of the fort. Point Venus—this being too near the Bay of Papeite for general safety, the Governor again at the head of 400 troops marched upon them. The natives received intelligence of his ap- proach and placed themselves in ambush. The natives allowed the main body to pass, but as the rear guard were passing in front of the English mission house, they opened their fire in direct line with the house. Mr. McKean, one of the missionaries, who was walking in his verandah, was struck by a ball and killed in- stantly. His death is universally regretted. He was one of those who have latterly come The Ist Lieutenant of | June 20th, the natives again assembled at | result is said to have been brought about by an odist Missionaries to obtain the supremacy, im- mediately after the Roman Catholic Mission- aries had been expelled from the Territory — The Nestorians now occupy their ancient px tion, and refuse to receive se any Christian sect. ‘They believe this to be the ee eee and spirit- We stated a day or two ago, on the authority ot a contemporary journal, and without exami- nation, that the Presidential Electors would as- semble in their ive States and give their votes on the 2d of ber.

Oh, child of that white crested mountain whose springs Gush forth in the shade of the cliff eagle's wings, Town whose slopes to the lowlands thy wild waters shine, Leaping grey walls of rocks, flashing through the dwarf pine. From that cloud curtained cradle so cold and so lone, From the arms of that wintry-locked mother of stone, By hills hung with forests, through vales wide and free, Thy mountain-born brightness glanced down to the sea. No bridge arched the waters save that where the trees Stretched their long arms above thee and kissed in the breeze ; No sound save the lapse of the waves on thy shores, The plunging of otters, the light dip of oars. | Green tufted, oak-shadowed, by Amoskeag’s fall, Thy twin Uncanoonncs rose stately and tall, Thy Nashua meadows lay green and unshorn, And the hills of Pentucket were tasselled with corn. But thy Pennacook valley was fairer than these, And greener its grasses and taller its trees, Ere the sound of an axe in the forest had rung, Or the mower his scythe in the meadows had swung. In their sheltered repose looking out from the wood, The bark-builded wigwams of Pennacook stood, There glided the corn-dance—the council fire shone And against the red war post the hatchet was thrown. from England—well educated, and one of the most respected men upon the group. This ac- tion was upog the North side of the Bay of Pa- peite. The native loss is unknown. French loss, three killed and five wounded. At the same time on the south side, another action took place, in which the natives were again routed. killed and seven wounded. Native loss un- known. The day following the natives again advanced upon the town, and betore they could be met, House Chapel, &c. . The natives had within the last few days geized three Frenchmen, who had been for ma- ny years resident upon the Island, and were among them; and had put them to death. American Genius and its Rewards. Gentlemen :—The friends of Mr. O. M. Coteman, in this city, will be gratified to learn that his invention, styled the “ 4o- lian Attachment to the Piano,” which he sold in this country to Messrs. Nunns & Clarke and others for $100,000 for his right in the United States, is well received in England. He has secured patents in Eng- musical world has been directed to it by the great admiration it has excited in the court and fashionable circles of London. The pianist of the Queen and other pro- fessors have their wonder and surprise at such an invention, particularly as it came from America. They say that the whole of Europe has been aiming at the same thing, and had given it up in despair. The piano was to be faken to Buckingham Pa- lace, in order that the Queen and her Court and the King of the French, at his late visit, might hear it played upon by Mons. Benedict, one of the first pianist and lighted with it, and has written some mu- powers. “The effect of my instrument, as played upon by Mons. Benedict,” says Mr. Coleman, writing to a friend, “ sur- passes all my conceptions of its capaci- h the streets of ties.” the world still greater and more valuable genius. G.

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. | The returns by this morning’s mail, | leave it beyond a doubt, that Mr. Polk is | elected President of the United States.— | The State of New York, has gast her large | Electoral vote for him, contrary to all cal- culation, and thus brought about a result unexpected by both parties—the effects ot which we deprecate as devoutly as we | desire the prosperity of the Country. How- ever, we will not now speculate on the consequences of our defeat, and the suc- cess of a party who glory more in the “lone star” of Texas than in the proud banner of America. We rest our hopes in the over-ruling Providence of Heaven, confident that “the Judge of all the earth will do right.” The following States are known to be settled in the manner here disposed, which give Mr. Polk 141 Electoral votes, three more than necessary to ensure his elec- tion; and Mr. Clay 89.

Why should we speak of the fashion, in a | city where it is so inconstant. Yesterday’s fashion is gone to-day, and that of to-day will be gone to-morrow. In Paris, those who dress according to the | fashion are always busy, they must not lose a moment in the day, there is the morning dress; day dress, evening dress, and concert or ball | dress ; and this is not all: one must have fash- | ionable carriage and horses, fashionable liver- | ies, and fashion is always fleeting. | ‘Phose people to whom fashion is everything are extremely unhappy when they are found | wanting in the smallest particular. This way of tying the cravat is no longer in fashion ; coats are not buttoned up so high as this now; this | hat is pot of the new shape ; this color is in a | ous with disdain : “‘ Wretches ! think you that Fra Diavo- lo allows his throat to be cut like a sheep!” The three assassins, struck with dismay, | fled instantly, and, roused by the noise, the | innkeeper appeared, with‘a lamp in his hand, pale and trembling “Tam Fra Diavolo me cried his lodger, “a price is set upon my head: learn and repeat it everywhere—that the fate of this wretch is reserved for all who dare to | raise a hand against me!” Thus saying, he limeppoared. Another time, he met the Neapolitan executioner, conducting two brigands to the little town of Arni, where they were to be hanged. A small detachment of car- bineers were in advance, having hasten- ed forward to make preparations, and 'three men only formed the ‘escort. party of five, delivered the two robbers | and hung up the hangman (against whom he entertained a very reasonable hatred) in their place! The authorities of the town, surprised at the delay of the expec- ted entertainment, were about to send a messenger to hurry matters, when one of bad taste ; and this cane is completely gone by. If you have been so unfortunate as to. go out | without knowledge of all this, you are lost.— Run, hide yourself quick, before any one sees | you, or your reputation is gone. Fortunately for the Parisians, they are not all | slaves to fashion. Men of talent think very lit- | tle of it; they have other things to think about. Some austere philosophers and cynics affect to despise it ; nat modus in rebus. The following circumstances befe] a lady in | Paris, to whom fashion is everything. This la- dy was forty years old—she was not handsome so. “It is the fashion,” was her favorite saying. “One cannot go wrong when one is in the fash- ion.” “ But if the fashion is a ridiculous one ?” said the friends, “ Fashion can never be ridiculous.” “ Tf it is unbecoming ” “It is no consequence.’ “If fashion directed you to expose your | | throat ?” a “To wear your dresses to your knee ?” “T would wear them so. 1 would always be | in the fashion.” The husband of this lady, who was by no head one day to compose a Tittle piece, and put | it in the Journal des Modes, with a picture, re- presenting a lady whose hair was dressed with a carrot. Underneath was written— “ New style of dressing hair, drawn back a | la Chinois ; natural carrot. The lady examined it leng and seriously. “Oh, what a singular bead-dress !—how y2ew; ah,they will wear vegetables in their hair aforthis!” t “Fhe husband - shrugged’ his shoulders, ex. élaiming— “ How ridiculous—it is not common sense. I hope you will not make yourself ridiculous in that manner ! -* Why not, my dear ; it is mot ugly—not at isenough. I must have a carrot—I must have one immediately y—a fine large carrot. Weare eving to the Seed must have my hair dress- The husband affected to oppose her; the la- dy persisted. She put the carrot in her hair, and went to the opera. ‘The effect was extraordinary, but not what she expected. Everybody Ja , and so ve- } Fy openly, that it was’impossible for her to mis- understand it. The lady came home very melancholy, and be meeeeaenes y ads * It. was very singular ; I was dressed in the | last fashion, and yet the at me.” “ My dear,” replied the hus “all fash- checoming to you.

THE FATE OF THE APOSTLES. The following brief history of the Apostles | we have never seen in a popular print till a day or two ago. It may be new to those whose reading has not been evangelical, to know that St. Matthew is supposed to have suffered martyrdom, or was slain with a sword at the city of Ethiopia, St. ed aes. was dragged through.the streets of Alexandria, in Egypt, till he expired. St. Luke was hanged upon an olive tree in Greece, St. John was put in a cauldron of boiling oil | at Rome, apd escaped death! He afterwards | died a natural death at Ephesus, in Asia. St. James the Great was beheaded at Jeru- salem. St. James the Less was thrown from a pin- nacle, or weight of the temple, and then: beat- en to death with a fuller’s club. St. Philip was hanged up against a pillar, at Hiecrapolis, a city of Phygia. St. Bartholmew was flayed alive, by the com- | mand of a barbarous king. St. Andrew was bound toa cross, whence he preached unto the people until he expired. St. Thomas was run through the body with a lance at Coromandel, in the East Indies. St. Jude was shot to death with arrows. St. Simon Zealot was crucified in Persia. St. Matthias was first stoned and then be- headed. St. Barnabas was stoned to death by the Jews | at Salina. St. Paul was behcaded at Rome, by the ty- rant Nero. SHORT. The following is the address of the King of the French on his first landing at Portsmouth.

His friends are defeated, but most foully, Blackened by slanders as his cha- racter has been, we could have surely tri- umphed over these. “There is a noble tri- bute to the man implied in the fact, that while our great leader has been defamed as no other man was ever defamed—has been constantly held up to the People as a debauchee, gambler, blasphemer, virtual murderer, &c., he almost every where runs at the head of his ticket! Yes, traduced as Henry Clay has been through the can- vass, he has polled not only the votes giv- en to the other Whig candidates, but ma- ny more. As many as twothousand Lo- cofocos have broken over the party lines, and voted for Henry Clay, while hundreds of others, now that the fierce spirit of the contest is over, have béen heard toe openly their admiration for Mr. Clay, their | sympathy (which heisnotthe man to need) | for his misfortune, and their alarm in view of the future which their victory lays open to view. Inthe hot chase they heeded not the object of their pursuit ; now they stand gazing in awe onthe majesty of the victim—bunted down, but unsubdued, and | in death still-turning on his destroyers the calm proud gaze of a conqueror. Their common remark, “I feel sorry for Mr. | Clay,” will only excite a smile from him, | but it is honorable to them. . What won- | der that bitter, burning tears have been wrenched from the eyes of sternest man- hood by this national calamity ? Mr. Clay is defeated—not the principles of Mr. Clay, nor even the man fairly. falls a sacrifice to a conjunction of verse influences such as never before com- bined against any man. 1. He is beaten by the most extensive | frauds on the elective franchise ever prac- tised in the world. Here in our city they were more enormous than they can have been elsewhere, though they were not con- fined to this locality.

And they kept up ‘a constant shouting for—Polk and Dallas; which was as regularly responded to ‘by some Whigs shouting for—Clay and Fre- linghuysen! We participate in the feel- ing of regret which we have heard ex- pressed by several. Whig citizens, that.our political opponents were not permitted to comuctstheir show without any interrup tion,—particularly at this time when no- thing but evil can grow out of it; and we are glad that the night past away with so little mischief. — On the afternoon of the same day, the Democrats raised a hickory pole,—for young Hickory, of course—and displayed from the top of it a banner inscribed— “POLK ann DALLAS "— on one side, and ; “ Constitutional Liberty ” on the other. A little past the middle of the pole, a projecting arm was fixed, and from it, we noticed at night, was suspend- ed a transparency, inscribed on foursides— TEXAS. POLK. DALLAS. OREGON. ‘Texas accidentally met our first gaze, and we really experienced a sensation of feeling that filled us with gloom and sor- row, notwithstanding the brilliancy of eve- ry object by which we were surrounded, was calculated to inspire one with feel- ings the very opposite. We thought of the children of Israel who went astray seeking after false gods, and brought up- on themselves the wrath of offend Majes- ty ; and we fancied there was some anal- ogy afforded in the case of Americans go- ing mad for Texas—a foreign Country— forgetful of American policy and Ameri- can interest, and the peace and happiness of the people: for, in the accomplishment of the annexation of Texas to this country, a dissolution of the Union is, by some, con- templated, in which event the days of our Country are numbered, and brother against brother will be seen in deadly combat. But supposing this Tyler project succeeds without internal or domestic convulsion, a war with Mexico, and with as many allies as she can command, is inevitable— @ war disgraceful on our part, and it may be very hazardous. The question having been brought prominently before the peo- ple in the late contest, its friends may, with much propriety, infer that, with the elec- tion of Mr. Polk, the Country has decided in its favor ; and, if possible, saddle it up- on us with all its fearful consequences. And if war should come, who will do the fighting? Will the great father of the scheme put himself in the way of bullets and cannon ball? It is not likely. Mr. Polk will be President of the Nation, and we need not, of course,depend on his valu- able services in the field. But will any of his descendants distinguish themselves in it! We know, very well, that those who have been most clamorous for Texas will be the very ones most apt to skulk out of this difficulty, when it comes, and the bone and sinew of the land—the laboring class —will have to bear the brunt of battle. IT IS TRUE, OH! KING! v However difficult it is for us, and many of our Whig friends, to believe that James K. Polk is elected President, yet. with the | figures staring us in the face, and the shouts of Democrats ringing in our ears, we can doubt no longer. It is even so! James K. Polk is the President elect.of these United States! An honor far abov hts most extravagant hopes, has been sur. prisingly conferred upon him.

A victory achieved by means so dishonorable is supremely dit creditable to the vietors.—Multon Chron. This brings to our recollection a cas” in our community’ of “a respectable old Foreigner, who was approached by a De mocrat and informed that if he did no vote for Polk, and. against Mr. Clay, be’ would be “compelled to leave the Coum » try,—his property would be taken from him, and he and his family driven from” their comfortable home.” The old genile- ' man told the circumstance in our heati"8e’ and informed us further-that his family were suffering distress of mind on accoust of it.

The pu of the as- sembling was impertinently converted by Davezac into’ a partizan meeting, when the call itself stated that the principles and character of both. political parties were merely to - Davezac a low to which nobody and it was inferred ee ee t % who honored him ‘with it that vote for Mr. Clay, and ber of the Whig party.—N.Y,. for the biennial meeting of the Assembly of North Carolina, both braneh- es assembled in their res the Capitol, at 3 o’clock, P.

Yesterday, being the day fixed by law General r] ctive Halis, at At the hour designated, there was a ge- neral rush to the Capitol, particularly to the Senate Chamber, in which branch a tie was known to exist, though no one could conjecture, until the sequel develop- ed it, what would be the result of the at- tempt at organization. The Senate was called to order, by Thomas G. Stone, of Franklin, Principal Clerk at the last Session. Forty-nine mem- bers answered to their names, and the Oaths of qualification were administered to each by Wm. Thompson, Esq. The only absent Senator, was William B. She- pard, of Pasquotank, (whig.) The Members having been all sworn in, Mr. Edwards, of Warren, nominated as Speaker of the Senate, Louis D. Wilson, the Senator of Edgecomb; to which nom- ination, on motion of Mr. Waddell, of Or- ange, the name of Andrew Joyner, the Senator from Halifax, was added. The Senate proceeded to vote, and the Clerk announced the following result : For Wilson (Loco) 24 For Joyner (Whig) 23 Mr. Wilson voted for Mr. Edwards, and Mr. Joyner, for Mr. Dockery. The Clerk announced the result, stating that Mr. Wilson, having received a ma- jority of the votes, was duly elected. when Gen. Dockery demanded—what is the whole vote given, Sir? Clerk—F orty-nine. Gen. D.—Is 24a majority of 49? Clerk—I ask pardon—I aye made a mistake.— Twenty-five is a majority of the whole, and no one having received that number, there is no election. After a pause of some minutes, Mr. Waddel moved that another vote be had. The Senators proceeded to vote, with pre- cisely the same result as before. Wilson Mr. Wilson did not vote, A motion was then made to adjourn un- til to-morrow 11 o'clock, and carried with few\dissentients. So no Speaker has yet beer elected. As a good deal has been said about the vote of the Johnston Senator,(Mr. Tomlin- son) we state that he voted for Mr. Wilson. Mr. Shepard’s absence is caused, it is said, by the indisposition of his family.— Certainly, nothing but the direst necessity could have kept a whig from his post, when so much depends on a single vote. That sterling Whig, John L. Foreman, who has been at death’s door, and is still in most delicate health, repaired here, at the risque of his life, to represent his con- stituency, because the emergency of the crisis demanded it. In the House of Commons, there was also an unusual- ly full attendance. It was called to order by the old were administered by James D. Newsom, Esq., which tedious process being finished, Mr Mills, then rose and nominated for the Speaker’s Chair, Edward Stanly, of Beaufort ; and Mr. John B. Jones added to the nomina- tion the name of Calvin Graves, of Caswell. The C’lk. called the Roll, and the House proceeded to vote as fol- lows: For Stanly, (Whig,) For Graves, /Loco,) 68 438 Majority for Stanly, 20 Mr. Stanly, having received a majority of the whole number of votes, was declared duly elected, and having been conducted to the Chair, returned thanks for the hon- or conferred on him, in his usual felicitous style. L. H. Marsteller, of Wilmington, and Charles Manly, of Wake, were then ‘nominated for the situation of Prin- cipal Clerk, and the Elouse voted as follows : For Manly, (Whig,) 69 For Marsteller, (Loco,) 48 Manly’s majority, 21 cast, was declared duly elected, and took the seat, from which, two years ago, he was so unceremoniously eject- ed. ‘Fhus have The ingredients of the poison’d chalice, Been return'd unto their lips. Fayetteville, were nominated as Reading Clerk, and the House proceeded to vote, which resulted as follows : Dodge, (Whig,) 71 Cameron, (do.) 39 Busbee, (Loco,) [not in nomination,} 7 Mr. Dodge, having received a majority of the number of votes given, was declared duly elected. The House then adjourned. Thus has the Legislature of the Whig State of North Carolina entered upon its duties with a proper spirit.— Upon the Whigs, we admit, there rests a great responsi- bility: but that they will meet it boldly, aye, fearlessly, and with a fixed determination to do the best they can for the State and the people, we well know. The result of their deliberations, we confidently believe and trust, will redound te the honor and best interests of the State. So be it! It is universally conceded, that no Legislature has as- sembled here for many years, comprising so many men of acknowledged talents and character, as are embodied in the present one. THE OFFICIAL VOTE OF NORTH CAROLINA. The Raleigh Register, of the 19th inst., says: “We have been permitted to examine the Official Return of the Vote of North-Carolina for President, as filed in the Executinue Department, and find the following result ; Por Clay and Frelinghuysen, 43,232 For Polk and Dallas, 39,287 Whig majority, 3,945 It is proper to state that the vote of one of the Precincts in Hyde, where there was considerably over an hundred imgjority for Clay, was not returned by the Sheriff, for some. cause, and is not.incladed in the above majority — Many persons have bet on four thousand Whig majority, ‘and as the majority will exceed that, if the full Hi Ms 5 , cate ‘o hao Mr. Manly having received a majority of all the votes | James R.

It may truly be said of this excellent lady, that she had not an enemy, A pro- tracted illness of nearly four months, develo>ed more fully her christian character, when her patience, meek- ness and submission to the Divine will became manifest to all who visited her. In the bloom of youth she chose ued to adorn her profession of religion by an humble and consistent walk. In alj the various relations of life which she sustained, she faithfully discharged the daties of a wife, mother, child, sister and friend. Sensible that her sickness would be unto death, she made diligent preparation for that so- lemn_ hour, till filled with the love of God, she calm- ly surrendered every earthly object which she held dear in life, and earnestly desired to depart and be with Christ, which she esteemed far better. Her farewell to her family and friends was of the most ing blessing ;—none of those dear to her were forgotten, a kind and faithful warning was given or sent to each one, and she continued to express her confidence in God—her love for the Saviour—her gratitude for favors received, and her concern for her children and her absent friends, till her articulation failed to convey, to those who sur- rounded her, the desires of her heart. The loss which her husband and young children have sustained is irreparable ; but the satisfactory evidence she has left behind, that though absent from the body, she is present with the Lord, says to all her friends, however dis- consolate: ‘| { { \ é “ Weep not for the saint that ascends To partake of the joys of the sky, Weep not for our sister who bends With the worshipping chorus on high ; Weep not for the spirit now crowned With the wreath to the faithful given, O weep not for her, she has found Her reward and her refuge in Heaven.” {Communicated.

These are | song : |» *T was metry in hall, When beards wagged all. | | Beards however#ell out of favor with | | civillians years ago, though advances have | been and are now making towards them. | Granger says: “ Beards gradually dwin- | ‘died under the two Charles, till they were | | reduced into whiskers, and became extinct | \in the reign of James the 2nd.” That | | there was a variety of beards in Shak- | | speare’s time, Nick Bottom’s sayings prove. | |“ I will discharge it either in your straw | coloured beard, your purple ingrain beard, 'your French crown coloured beard, your | | perfect yellow.” | | Beards have in all ages been the end- less topic of the writers and declaimers on morality, and the favorite object of fash- ion. If the beau monde wore their hair Inxuriant, or their wig enormous, the | | preachers,as in Charles the second’s reign, | instantly were seen in the pulp, with 'longerin consequence. Respect however, was paid to the beard and wig in spite of” the hair cutter and beard destroyer in the pulpit; therefore the theme of the beard is too great and mighty for us, “ approved and established as it is by modern times,” to undertake: nevertheless we are induc- ed to go on comforted, and: pleased and | been the peculiar appendage of a biped race ; for ages the pride and glory of the military animal, who, With savage whiskers and forky beard, Attempts by Jove to make himself revered. The most beautiful and splendid crea- | tions of Apelles or Guido, Raphael or Rey- nolds, would by no meang be improved in our view. by the nicely trimmed mustachio, Russian imperial, or modern goatee. We therefore cannot account for the rage, of beards, unless it beither a matter of pol- icy, to hide some /insufferable ugly fea- tures, a burning desire to imitate the great Russian bear, as indicative of high ani- mal courage, or rather a high degree of modesty and shamefacedness, afraid to expose itself to the view of an inquisitive and scrutinizing world, unless screened by a thick copse of bristling hairs.

In the great States of Pennsylvania, polling an aggregate of ethan a million of votes, there will be found to be little over an av- erage majority of 6,000 each. These facts, and others which will hereafter be developed, will show the Whigs that, though defeated, they have really no reason to debpond. They have their influence in the nation, they stilldave con- trol of many of the State Governments, and may with proper efforts, gain such an ascendan- éy in others as to save the land from many of the horrors of Locofoco misrule and corruption.

Throughout the Presidential canvass he was very zealous in his support of Mr. | Clay, frequently deelaring that he was far | more eminently qualified for the Presiden- | cy than any other man in the Union.— | When however, it was ascertained that | Mr. Clay’s name would not be returned to | the House, Mr, Benton began to labor first | in behalf of Mr. Crawford and then of | Gen. Jackson. The Legislature of Mis- | souri repeatedly refused to instruct Mr. Scott her Representative, as to the vote he should give: and Mr. Benton then urged | him very strongly to vote for Jackson.— | Mr. Scott replied that personally he was | friendly to him, but he had made up his | mind that Mr. Adams was far better qual- ifiéd for the station, and that the interests | of the country would be promoted, by his | election. He also referred Mr. Benton to the declarations which he had himself re- | peatedly made concerning the unfitness of | Gen. Jackson for the station. We copy | the following from this portion of Mr. | Scotts statement : “ He (Benton) remonstrated with me, | saying Adams was cold and ungrateful, | but that if 1 would give the vote of the State for Jackson, and he should be elect- | ed, he would remember the act ; that he (Jackson) never forsook a friend, or for- give an enemy; and if I gave the vote to| Adams, we (meaning himself and me) would be playing into the hands of the Hill Faction in Missouri, Bates and Geyer, | &c., and that they would then be the lea- | , ding and patronized men in the State, and | that we, who had now the ascendancy, would be thrown in the back ground—and | many other reasons | will not take the time to state. I then replied to him, ‘Sir, | you expect me to vote for Jackson! All my feelings and opinions of him I have derived from you ; you have told me often | that he had no talents, no capacity, and especially for civil rule ;«that he was a bully, a blackguard, and a murderer; that | he always kept a gang of rowdies a- | round him, to enforce his will, and that if he was elected President, we should have to legislate with swords and pistols in our | belts, and referred him to the following | letter: “J am literally in hell here, (that is, in“ the vicinity of General Jackson,) the mean- est wretches under heaven to contend. with; liars, affidavit makers, and shame- less cowards. All the puppies of Jackson are at work at me, but they will be aston- ished at what will happen, for it is not them, but their master, whom I shall hold accountable.

On Tuesday, the Senate met at 11 o’clock, | ani proceeded to vote again for Speaker, as” follows : For Mr. Wilson, 24 | “ Mr. Joyner, 23 “ Mr. Dockery, 1 | On the several motions of Messrs. Francis | and Gaither, two other votings were had, the | results of which were precisely the same,— Ne‘ther candidate having a majority of the whole number, of course there was uo election. The Senate then adjourned, until 12 o’clock to- morrow. In the House, S. J. Finch, (Whig,) of Chero- kee, and James Page, (Loco,) of Randolph, were put in nomination for Principal Door-keep- er, and the House proceeded to vote. The re- | sult was— For Finch, 69 “ Page, 45 Finch’s majority being 24, he was declared to be duly elected Principal Door-keeper. On motion, the House then proceeded fo vote for Assistant Door-keeper, there being eight Candidates in nomination for the appoinjment. | After three unsuccessful ballotings, in the course | of which the names of five of the nominees were withdrawn, W. R. Lovell, of Surry county, hav- ing received 84 votes, on the fourth balloting, was declared to be duly elected Assistant Door- keeper? On motion of Mr. B. F. Moore, the Rules of Order of the last session were adopted for the government of this House until others shall be | adopted. On’ motion of Mr. Puryear, a Committee of five were appointed to prepare Rules of Order for the government of the House the present session, : On mtion, the House adjourned. On Wednesday, the Senate assembled at 12 o’clock. On motion of Mr. Cameron, the Se- nate proceeded to vote for Speaker, and the re- | sult was precisely as on former votes, Another vote was called for by Mr. Boyden, and taken, with precisely the same result. After a pause of a few minutes, Mr. Joyner rose and addressed the Senate as follows: “ Senators: Our situation is embarrasing, and unpre- | cedented in this State, so far as I have any information. The public business is delayed, no doubt to the regret of all, and to the disappointment of the public expectation. It is a condition of things which I am anxious to obviate ; , and as it is probable, that my name, being in nomination for the station of presiding Officer of this body, may _ have formed an obstacle to its organization, I feel it due to the public, and to myself, that this difficulty, if it really | exists, should be removed. Under this conviction of du- ty, I ask my political friends the favor to withdraw my name from the nomination for the Chair.” Mr. Gaither, in compliance with the earnest wish of Mr. Joyner, withdrew his name from nomination. Mr. Dockery then rose, and placed in nomi- nation as Speaker, Mr. Waddell, of Orange, and moved that the Senate forthwith vete. It was agreed to, and the Senate voted as follows : For Mr. Wilson 24 For Mr. Waddell 23 For Mr. Dockery 1 There being no election, Mr. Elliott proposed another véle, which was had, with precisely the | same result as the previous one. ‘ | While we were absent necessarily for a short time, Mr. Waddell rose, and in a burst of his | own peculiar eloquence, dwelt upon the conse- | quences that must arise from the present condi- tion of things, if persisted in. We regret ex- ceedingly that we were nof present, tho’ had we been, we should despair, from the accounts | given us, of doing justice to this effort. He begged, in conclifion, that his name might be withdrawn.

It is well known, that for the last four days, | this body has been unable to organize, owing to the close state of parties ; the trying by | the most «utter disregard of courtesy, to see if | they.could not break down Mr. Foreman, who | was known to be in a feeble'state of health. The | Whigs had determined that on Friday, the Sen- | ate should be organized. ‘They had had resis. | ted the shameful attempts of the Locos, to make | one Speaker, whose speciat business (as we are | informed) would have been, to answer eertain | purposes in the appoinment of Committees, rel- | ative to the Treasury,-on which -subject more ' has. been communicated to us than we, at pre- | sent, think necessary to report. ..

The Committee were accordingly discharged. Mr. Biggs moved that the Senate again vote peaker. Mr. Elliott withdrew the name of Mr. Dock- ery, and the Senate proceeded to vote. The Whig votes were cast for Col. Joyner, and the Loco Foco votes for Mr. Wilson—Mr. Joyner voting for Mr. Dockery, and Mr. Wilson de- clining to vote at all. No election. The result having been announced, Mr Wil- son rose and said that no gentleman felt more | deeply grieved at the present embarrassing po- sition of the Senate, than he did, and would go as faras any mantoremove it. As an evidence of this, he had, the day before, addressed a com- munication to his friends, desiring that so faras he was concerned, they would discard all per- sonal feelings, and make such a sacrifice on the Altar of our common country as would best In his public life, he was always influenced by considerations of what was best for the general interest ; and acting now, on this principle, he begged some friend to withdrawn his name from nomination. Mr. Edwards rose to withdraw the name of his friend. but he could not do so without bear- ing testimony to the honorable course which he had pursued in the delicate situation in which he was placed. Mr. Biggs, in order that the conduct of the Senator from Edgecomb might be fully illustra- ted, desired that the communication addressed | by him to his friends, be read at the Clerk’s table. The letter was accordingly read. Mr. Edwards now nominated for Speaker, | Mr. Cameron, of Cumberland, and moved that the Senate forthwith vote. The Senate voted with the same result as before—Mr. Cameron , not voting, aud Mr. Joyner voting for Mr. Dock. | Albright now nominated Mr, Gaither, of | and Yancy. [Now, thought we to our- self, we shall have a Speaker. The Locos have mapifested such chagrin that a leader of | the “ Western Reserve was not chosen tor Spea- ker of the House of Commons, they will cer- tainly mak® the amende honorable, and vote for Gaither. Butas in every instance, where Loco Foco professions have been tested by Loco Fo- co performanée, they flew the track.] The Se- | nate voted with the same result—Mr. Gaither | voting for Mr. Boyden. Another yote was called for and had, with | precisely the same result. Mr. Cameron rose and begged that his name might be withdrawn. It was accordingly with- drawn by Mr. Edwards. : Mr. Biggs now rose and nominated Mr. Ed- wards, of Warren, and demanded a vote. Mr. Gaither begged his name might be withdrawn, which was done by Mr. Albright. The Senate proceeded to vote—the Whigs voting for Mr. Francis, of @Mitywood, &c:, and the Locos for Mr. Edwards, The result precfsely the same. No election. * Mr. Waddell called for another vote, which was had with precisely the same result, except that the Whigs voted for Col. Joyner. Mr. Worth, of Montgomery andyMoore, rose and said: Propositions for an equitable ar- rangement of the difficulty now existing with regard to our organization, have been made by the Whigs in the Committee of Conference.— Sq Pos im tor ee oe er J | be taken as a whole. 'something else on this side may be offered, Mr. Waddell, from the Committee of | Senate. | ‘On the meeting of the Senate, after the Jour- | pal was read, General Dockery, (Whig,) well | known as 4 man of great firmness of purpose, and strong intellect, addressed himself to the | Senators, saying, he thought it due to the State, to the Whigs of the Senate, and to kgth parties, that-some steps should be taken to organize. It was known, he remarked, that propositions | had been submitted to the other side, (the Locos) | which had been rejected ; -it was equally weil | known, that the other side had with a most un- _ accommodating spirit, not only refused to make | any proposition, but had also_ refused to accept | that offered by his, Mr. D’s. friends. As yet, | the people outside of these walls had no know]- | edge of what-had been done. That knowledge | they ought to have, and must have, Now, said | Mr. D., I intendto do my duty. My political | friends have all determined this state of things _ shall not continue. No Whig intends to leave | his duty undone. No Whig thinks of abandon- ing his duty. Now, gentlemen; said-Mr. D., it is understood that one Senator on the other side, bas expressed his willingn@s to adjourn and go home. Such an idea has no countenante: or support from this side of the house. : I now call on the Senators on the other side, to know whether they intend to make any pro- position. I wait for your answer gentlemen. Here Gen. Dockery paused, and the pale faces on the other side, the disconsolate looks, as Gen. D. looked round—the confusion was amusing— not a word was said, and after waiting for some time, Gen. Dockery proceeded. ‘Then, I under- | stand from the other side, they have no proposi- tion to submit—they persevere in their deter- ' mination to accept nothing, to offer nothing. * J beg leave now, to submit the proposition I hold in my hand, which the Clerk read as fol- | lows : | Be it Resolved, By the Members of the Senate, That | for the purpose of organizing this body, that Andrew Joy- | ner be chosen Speaker thereof ; Thomas G. Stone, Prin- cipal Clerk, and Perrin H. Busbee, Clerk Assistant. I wish, said Gen. Dockery, that this should If gentlemen on the oth- er side object to it, it shall be withdrawn— when they will inform us what they are dispos- ed to do. | Gen. Dockery’s proposition, it will be per- ceived, gives the Whigs a Speaker, and the | Locos both Principal and Assistant Clorks, and | enabled the Locos to take all the other Officers, | both Door-keepers, which they did. When Gen. Dockery had concluded, a slight _ sketch of whose remarks we only pretend to | have given, Mr. Edwards, of Warren, address- _ed the Senate, remarking, that «hen the time arrived, he was ready to make any sacrifices, 'as much as the Senators on the other sidéfand | that he objected to the present Resolution, be- | cause he thought the Speaker ought first to be | elected—that nothing should be said of the | Clerks—[we suppose he wanted all,] and that | he objected to the precedént which would be | now made ; he did not wish the Senators here- | after, to have such precedents as their guide. | Gen. Dockery, in his quick and forcihle man- | ner, asked the Senator from Warren, when the | time was to arrive 1 ‘How long art we to wait? This is the fifth day of the Session. ‘The Sen- _ ator from Warren talks of the proper time ! | As to the precedent to which the Senator ob- jects, no precedent can be set, except for just such an extraordinary state-of things as now ex- ‘ist with us, and unless the Senator from War- | ren, or his friends, will give us a better prece- ‘dent, why not take this?

The deceased had acted well her part in this life. Sincere and faithful in her attachments, she was surround- ed by a large number of friends throughout her well-spent life. As a mother, wife, sister, friend, and neighbor, all | her duties were cheerful and well performed. But it was in the domestic circle chiefly, that her many virtues shown prominent, Those who have been the beneficiar- ies of her kindness and constant care, can never forget | the untiring devotion and watchful anxiety of a life spent for their benefit and happiness. Her concern for her children ceased only with her parting breath, which were uttered in blessings on their behalf. Though fond,of so- ciety, it was not the gaiety of the world, but the domes- | tie social circle of children, relations and friends, that | furnished her chief pleasure andeattraction. A true | friend to the poor, her charity was extended to all the | deserving, without respect of persons.

There is not a single arrival of the mail, which does not bring accounts of the most. stu- pendous frauds having been practised by the Locofoco party, to accomplish their wicked and. base designs, To. substantiate what we have said, we will only cite one. instance, that of Plaquemines, a small parish in Louisiana, and but a short distance above the city of. New Or- leans ; where in 1840, the whole population was a little njore than 1,300, and the number of votes polled about 400! At the election for President, the Locofoco vote was over 1,200! while the Whig vote was only about 40! Now we ask, is this vote of the Locofocos a natural i increase? Every one must at a glance, see that-it is not. The polls in this State are kept open three days, and on the second day, two steamboats freighted with the very off-scourings of Europe—men, not knowing whether they were going to vote for James. K. Polk, or for Van Buren ; were taken from the city of New Orleans, after they bad voted, and transported to this parish,—again marched. up to the ballot box, and to a man voted for Polk ! And this is not all. But such fraudulent vo- ters were manutactured and made to answer the purposes of the Locofoco party all over the country. Catholics were appealed to as such to vote for Polk and Dallas :-and in many in- stances went in‘a body the Locofoco stripe :— naturalized citizens. were appcaled.to in: the same way, and the basest lies told them to secute their support : that Mr. Cray, if elected,.would drive them from the country. It had the desir. ed effect; Mr. Cray has been beaten—not by a majority of the American People, but by ille- gul foreign votes ! These are the means that have been resort- ed to by a Party calling itself democratic. “Yes, by the party professing to have the greatest re- speet fur the Laws of the land—by the party who say they are striving for the good: of the country, but _whose every act, most unfortuhate-: ly, proves the very reverse. 7" The New York Evening Post repudiates the idea that Mr. Polk will, in the composition of his Cabinet, exercise any delicacy toward Joba Tyler. .'The Post says: “’'Thereis no re-"|: lation between President Tyler's administration and that which will succeed it, as in the slight. est degree to embarrass Mr. Polk in the com- position of a Cabinet.” - This hint, we think, is sufficiently plain, and what és true of the Cabi- net, will be true of all.the offices.in the gift, of the Federal Administration. | Postrace Revorm.—The Baltimore Ameri- can says: It will be most acceptable news to our readers generally to know that light on this. important subject has at length penetrated the darkest inner recesses of the Post Office: De-|° ces under five hundred miles, and tig S* * have re- |: speak with any de reason, oe Peni i 2 t tions were a few days -agodntre the Senate‘of the South Carol ture, by Mr. Pickens, s, Theyw to contain the sentiments tionsof that party now stand to each oe er.

THE VOTE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The returns from this State on the Elec- toral vote are complete, and the aggre- gate electoral vote for the State stands thus : For Clay 232,408 Polk 237,588 Birney 15,812 485,808 Majority for Polk over Clay 5,180 Maj. for Clay & Birney over Polk 10,633 The vote for Governor is deficient in the counties of Essex and Wyoming. Taking the electoral votes in those counties in lieu of the vote for Governor, the following ag- gregate are given: For Fillmore 231,038 Wright 241,035 Stewart 15,218 487,291 Maj. for Wright over Fillmore 9,991 Fillmore & Stewart over Wright 5,221 The Albany Daily Advertiser says that when all the returns are in, the majority of Mr. Wright over Mr. Fillmore will ex- ceed ten thousand votes.

The par- ticulars of his death, are feelingly set forth in the eloquent remarks made to the House, on the | occasion of its announcement. Mr. F. had for years served the County which he represented, with marked fidelity and honesty, and his death will be a severe blow to his constituents, and his friends. In lite his name always command- | ed respect ; and now, that he is dead, his mem. | ory will long be cherished. In private life, Mr. Foreman was every thing | that could be desired in the good citizen, the | tender husband and father, the faithful friend. | He was, emphatically, the pride of the social | circle.

The savage was mounted on a small _ | but beautifully-formed bay horse, of short, quick | stride, yet fine and powerful action. He was | | armed with a long lance, which he held poised | in his hand, while a bow and quiver were strap- | _ed to his back. His dress was a buckskin shirt, | , with leggins of the same material, while his | long, black haijy, although partially confined by | | yellow band about his head, was waving in| the breeze created by his rapid course along the | | prairie. He had scarcely got clear of the cur- | tain, which confined our view to objects only in | advance of the wagon, when another Indian — | was discovered following immediately in his steps. “ Los Indios! Los Indios!” said Mr. Navar- | | ro, with consternation depicted on his counte- | | nance, while be was eagerly feeling about in the bottom of the wagon for his rifle. | “ Camanches!” shouted Fitz, at the same tinie pummelling and kicking the mules into a break-neck gallop, in the hope of soon coming up with the advance-guard, which now could not be far ahead. “The whole tribe!” I could not help ex- | claiming, as I now looked out at the hinder end of. the wagon, and saw still another well-mount- | ed Indian dashing down the roll of the prairie | with the speed of the wind, and, to appearance, making directly for us. This whole scene was enacted in a few se- conds, and in our lame and unprotected situa- | tion our minds were but ill at ease on the score | of anattack. The appearance of the last Indi- | | an, and the reasonable supposition that a large | body might be following him, induced Fitz to | kick and beat the mules more zealously than | befure, and at such a rate of speed did they go, | that the race between us and the foremost Indi- an was close, and for a shéft distance well con- | tested ; while the buffalo led her wild pursuers along directly by our side, and so near that the very earth, thrown from their horses’ hoofs, rat- tled against the curtains of our wagon. The — savages, though they must have been aware of our proximity, did not appear to bestow a single glance upon an object so strange as a Jersey | | wagon must haye been to them, but kept their | eyes steadily bent upon their prey. | | With mad eagerness this strange race went two never deviated from their course.

A small but well-nonn- ted party had already set off in pursuit, and-Gen- eral McLeod tad” detailed another party who were on the éve of mounting. The savages had driven the buffalo directly into the lines, the rifle-shots we had heard turning the course of the pursuers; but not that of the parsued. The cow was shot with a musket by one of our offi- cers, Lieutenat Scott, and found to be young, and exceedingly fat and delicious. : Our esicampment was a beatiful. grove of timber, and near a small stream of warm, tur- bid water. A few yards below was a large In- dian camp, apparently but just deserted, some | twenty or thirty half-starved curs stil lingering | about, which seemed too weak to follow their From the appearance of the closely- picked fish, snake, terrapin, and pole-cat bones | which were scattered about, the late occupants had suffered mach from want of food, and the _dogs might be supposed to have eaten nothing The Indians who had driven the idation the appearance of our wagon might have caused, and they never gave up their chase un- til their prey was in our very jaws. After enjoying the hearty dinner which had thus accidently been thrown in our way, pre- sent out two or three parties, in different direc- | tions, in quest of the Indians, Each party car- ried a white flag, strong hopes being entertain- ed, notwithstanding the unfriendly reception giv- en to the Indians who had driven the buffalo in- to our camp, that some of the company might be induced to come in on amicable terms.— Guides were wanted, not only to inform us of our present position, but to lead or direct us on. ward by the best and easiest route. Not an In- dian could be found, however, but one of the par- ties went as far as the large river north of us. The waters were described as brackish and of a brownish colour, agreeing, in every way, with the description of Red River. The stream was running nearly east, and our west-northwest course had by this time brought us within some ten miles of it. Another chase came off, however, on the same day, which, for excitement, fairly went beyond anything in the way of horse-racing. One of the volunteers had set out in search of water by himself, and a short time after, without knowing that he had gone, Major Howard left the com- mand on the same errand. By accident they came suddenly upon each other in a little val- ley, and the man, mistaking Major H. for an In- dian, set off at full speed. The latter, also think- ing the other an Indian, gave chase with a yell, and away they bounded across the prairies as fast as their horses would carry them. The | first part of the chase was plainly seen by ma- ny of us, and created the greatest interest. The | | major was by far the best mounted of the two, and was also a bold and dashing rider; but he was a much heavier man than the pursued, and this gave the latter an advantage. The chase continued until both were out of sight, Major | H. slowly gaining upon the supposed Indian by | his superior riding. On one or two occasions the former raised a pistol to shoot the other, and nothing prevented it but a desire to bring him | Finally he came up with the | into camp alive. chase, both horses nearly broken down, when the frightened volunteer turned his pale face im. | ploringly around, and recognised, in his parsuer, the well-known major, with a pistol cocked in | his right hand. “ Wh—wh—why, major,” he exclaimed, stammering from fright—* Why, major, is that eou?

An insurrection has broken-out at-Guadalaxara, Gu- anajuato and San Luis, sufficiently serious to require the personal attention of Santa Anna. The movement was headed by Gen. Pareotes, who calls the President to an account for the enormous sums of money éxpended du- ring his administration. Our information on thisubject is derived from a letter dated Mexico, the 16th November, from 2 highly respectable and unquestionable source — Santa Anna had raised an army of 10,000 men, and pro- ceeded towards Guadalaxara for the purpose of quelling HoiInm We learn further, that the American Minister Pieni- potentiary, Wilson Shannon, Esq., has temporarily sus- pended all his official relations with the Mexican Gov- ernment. It seems that the American Minister thought proper to remonstrate with the Government upon the subject of the projected invesion of Texas. His com- plaints were received with a very bad grace, and we are informed that the Mexican Minister replied to Mr. Shan- non that the United States had nothing whatever to do with the internal affairs of Mexico, and that whatever proceedings might be in contemplation agairst a revolt- ed province was no concern whatever of the U. States, or of any other Foreign Power. Mr. Shannon’s letter is published at length, in the Na- cional of the 9th. It is a spicy and somewhat objugato- ry production, in which strong language is employed, and threatening intimations held out. He contends—|st. that a war with exas by the Mexican Government ought not to be tolerated in the manner in which it is pro- posed to carry iton. 2d. That such a war should not be waged, pending the negotiations for the annexation of Texas. 3d. That the United States became rightful- ly possessed of Texas by the purchase of Louisiana. 4th. That by the Mexican Constitution of 1824, Texas was proclaimed free and independent ; 5th. That the acqui- sition of Texas is of vast importance to the United States. These arguments are urged at considerable length, and as far as we can judge from a Spanish translation, with much force and emphasis. The considerations stated by Mr. Shannon will, says he, in the event of a war be- ing waged against Texas, render it “ highly offensive to the United States.” He concludes as follows: ‘“ The undersigned has likewise been instructed to repeat to your Excellency, while making the present protest, that which has already been stated by the Charge d’ Affaires, of the United States, on the announcement of the con- clusion of the treaty, viz: that the measure has been a- dopted with no view of hostility towards Mexico, and that should annexation be consumated, the United States will be ready to settle any questions connected with it on the most liberal terms.” The reply of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Senor Rejon is, in substance as stated, though couched in cour- teous and respectful terms. It enters into an elaborate examination of the various topics embraced in Mr. Shan- non’s letter, and attempts to refute the grounds of the pro- test. As a proof that this difficulty is considered important, Mr. Bankhead, the British Minister at Mexico, immedi- ately despatched the ship of war Spartan, to the Balize, under the command of Lord Minto, with despatches for the same government. The American Minister availed himself of the same opportunity to lay before the United States Government a statement of what has transpired. From th® officers of the Spartan we learn that Gen. Duff Green had arrived at Vera Cruz, from the city of | Mexico, with despatches for our Government, and em- barked immediately on board the cutter Woodbury. The | W. sailed for Pensacola on the 17th—the day of the sail- ing of the Spartan. The despatches of General G. are | thought to be of the greatest importance. : So far as we can learn from a most hasty perusal of | | our files, disturbances have broken out in the state of Jalisco, the capital of which is Guadalajara. General | Paredes appears to be at the head of the movement, and the affair is evidently regarded by the press and by the officers of the government as extremely serious. A sin- | gular circumstance in the business is, that Gen. Canalizo, the “ Provisional ” President, is now giving orders to the “ Constitutional” President, Santa Anna. The latter having received notice to place himself at the head of the troops concentrated at Jalappa, at once joyfully complies. | His orders were to march at once to Queretaro, a eity | three or four days march from Mexico, and on the road to Guadalajara, there to operate as the exigencies of the case might demand. Santa Anna put his troops at once in motion, and announces to head quarters that he has under his command 7,000 infantry, 1,500 cavalry and 20 field pieces, all in the best state of equipment. From Encero—one of Santa Anna’s haciendes, near Jalapa, where he met his new bride—he issued, on the 6th ult., a brief and spirited address to the army. He denounces the conduct at Peredes, in stiring up a revolu- tion in Guadalajara, declares him a traitor and the in- strument of a faction, and appeals to the troops by their former exploits to stand by him, and chastise the infa- | mous crime. He calls himself the humble instrument of the Government, ready to do all in his power to preserve the integrity of the territory and sustain the constitution- al government, Gen. Canalizo, too, issues his address from the Capi- tal to the Mexican Nation and to the army, appealing to them to stand by their country and by Santa Anne in this moment when the Nation, already involved in a war with Texas, is now threatened with new internal dissensions. He appears to regret that the march of the army upon Texas should have been interrupted by this last outbreak, bat promises to mete out to the guilty all the punishment the laws will authorize. Gen. Arista appears to be all this while engaged in re- pressing the Indian outrages in Northern Mexico, the “aecoants of which already given by us; have not been exaggerated. The loss in the affairs of Los Moros are stated by him, in his official report, in nearly the same figures as we gave. Want of time and room prevent us going more into | detail in relation to the affairs of Mexico. We shall now look with anxiety for another arrival from that distracted ‘ & rS ~ * ler’s last.

Accounts received at New York from Callao to the 2lst August represent this whole country to be ina state of great confusion. General Castello was expect- ed at Callao with an army of about five thousand troops to attack that place, which was making preparations for defence.— in the city. It was supposed that Gener- al Castello would take the place. The Ex-Presidents La Fuente, Forrico, and Vi- dal were at Lima. President Vivanco. persed, had arrived at Callao, with some of his followers, in a steamer. He was not permitted to land, but was ordered to Islay. Dublin had taken charge of the whole Pe- ruvian fleet at Islay, they (the fleet) hay- ing fired into the British Consul’s house at that place. The fleet had previously deserted and given itself up to Gen. Cas- tello. Four Presidents had been made in two years and a half; two of them a week previous to the sailing of the vessel which brings the above intelligence.

But all my dreams like dreams were naught, And all my fancy fanci'd vain Until thy smile illum’d my heart, And now I live in dreams again. The sweetest dream that ever rose In vision bright before my eyes, And made me long in sweet repose For dreamy life that never dies. Not all the joys of every hour Tho’ crowded in a moment’s space, Can equal half that holy power I feel in gazing on thy face. I'd rather have a look, a smile, Than live a gain my dreamy life ; I'd even try and die awhile Then wake, to know thee as my wife. X x Y. December lat, 1844. FRIDAY MORNING. | THE U.

The Baltimore American of yesterday | contains the following letter from a cor- respondent at Washington, which shows | in what light the difficulties between these | two countries is regarded in Washington : Washington, Dec. 7. | | The correspondence published in the Intelligencer of this morning has given | rise to much discussion in this city and is well calculated to interest every citizen in ‘the country.

The instructions, in this sense, discloses far and for the public information, far too little.— It greatly imports the people to know the whole Jength and breadth of this novel step, to sound the precise depth of this new humiliation, to know substantively what it is, how it came about, what prec it, what it absolutely in- volves, both to France and to ourselves. It must at once occur to every one as impos- sible that a discreet Minister, long-practised in | public affairs, like Mr Kine, sh have held | with the most polite of reigning Princes, on a | subject so delicate and so important, a conver. | ly tail, then, to have been preceding instruc- tions, and those of a tenor which it greatly more concerns the country to know than the iteration | lanthropy. The public, in a word, is at once sensitive on the score of our just national pride, and cautious as to whatever regards high and | dangerous points of our foreign policy. It will | therefore demand to know exactly what has | been done, and in what position we have been placed by these proceedings. It will desire to | see Mr. Krno’s despatch, detailing what pass- ed between him and the King of the French ; the authority upon which he went into such a conference ; the authenticity and tangibilit any pledges obtained or given ; jf there were any; and any subsequent commu- nication from our Legation at Paris that con- cerns the present attitude of the matter.— Nat.

When within a couple of miles of the Indian village a beautiful spectacle suddenly presented itself. Before us was a large and delightful val- ley, through which a river coursed along, with | just trees enough to relieve the eye without con- cealing any of the beauties. Ina large bend of the stream the village was situated, and all | around were the corn-fields, pumpkin and melon | patches of the inhabitants. In the distance, on | the other side, the prairie rose gently, without | a tree or bush to destroy the uniformity of the rich carpeting of green with which it was cov- ered ; in a western and southern direction, ex. actly on our course should we not cross the riv- er, the country appeared rugged and broken, and offering the greatest difficulty to our progress with the wagons. As we descended the Jong wive of the prairie which overlooked the valley, we could see that all was bustle and commotion in the village, now:searce a mile distant. Sudden a consid- erable party was seen, dashing off to the south- west, accompanied by a large troop of horses. We were not near enough to distinguish, with certainty, but saw enough to convince us that this party was composed of the women and | children, as well as old men of the tribe, and | | that with these they were despatching all their | superfluous horses. that our own reception would be anything but pacific, as the warriors always send off their families and moveable property when they them selves make a stand ; but our party kept steadi. lyon. Some of the older Indian fighters cast | glances back, to measure the amount of support | we might receive from the command in case we This seemed to indicate | powder horns and bullet-pouches, and examined | their flints and percussion-caps, to see that al was right. unteer would ask another for a few caps or ball | patches, or for a spare flint, and the whole face | of things began to assume an aspect decidedly belligerent, when suddenly another party was rectly in the footsteps of the former and larger | throng. mile, and it was evident enough that the latter | party was composed of warriors only, or grown men. Before we had reached the river, which bounded the village on its southern side, still another party was seen flying off in a northern direction, ascending the undulating prairie on | the opposite side of the town. From these movements it now appeared evi- tofore peaceful home ; yet thinking there might still be some of the tribe remaining, Van Ness and Carlos were sent forward with a white flag. As they entered the village a solitary Indian, | the last of his tribe that had remained to this time, was seen emerging from the opposite side | and dashing off at lightning speed on the trail | of his brothers. Thus, in certainly less than half an hour, was the Wacoe village deserted | * | by all its inbabitants, and in even Jess time not | one of them could be seen in any direction up- | on the prairies. tered the deserted town. Everything gave ev. | dence of the hasty departure of the inhabitants, | t Fires were still burning in the vicinity of every | lodge or wigwam, and earthen pots were found, | in which pumpkins were still boiling. Deer, | antelope, and wolf skins, sewed up and full of | corn; were left in their haste, and everything, betokened the unexpectedness of our approach, | and the suddenness of their flight. Not having | time to examine everything as closely as I wish- | ed, I reerossed the river, with ‘the intention of visiting the village at an early hour in the morn- | ing. ‘The command had arrived, anda camp- ing-ground been chosen: hy the time I reached | the opposite side of the stream. The site of this camp was near a corn-field, the position | immediately in our rear.

The poles were stuck in the ground, aud after running up perpendicularly some ten feet, were bent over so as to converge to a point at the top, thus giv- mg & regular dome-like slope to carry off the rains, Over these, buffalo hides in semé instan- ces were made fast, and these again were cov- ered with long rushes—thus making thatched cottages, impervious to dust or rain. Within many of the houses, at an elevation of four or five feet from the ground, was a row of berths extending nearly the whole circuit, and veryneatly gotup. ‘The bettom of these berths appeared to be of rough basket work, the frame which supported them being of large poles.— As all the cooking for the family was done out chimneys. The inhabitants had carried off the | principal part of their furniture, but bad still left | ed, to convince us that for Indians they lived in | much comfort, and not a little style. Attached | to each residence, and immediately in the rear, | was another building of smaller dimensions, | the lower part of which was evidently used asa | corn-crib and storehouse. In these buildings | we found a quantity of corn and pumpkins, be- sides finely-cured venison, antelope and buffalo | meat. Above the corn-crib was a species of balcony, although without a railing, and this led into a small room in the second story, if I may so call it. One of the company said this room was the sleeping apartment of the young and marriageable squaws of the family,and that their mother kept a ladder by which they climb. ed up to it at night and were let down in the morning. This story may be true and may be not—I tell it as it was told me. In one of the main buildings an instrument, It was made of cane, and in some re- | spects resembled a fife, although much longer. | It had five holes for the fingers, besidesa nigath- | piece somewhat after the fashion of a clarionet. | | The notes of the instrument were nearly as soft | as those of a flageolet, the workmanship ex. | tremely neat, and evincing not only ingenuity, but taste ; and after hearing tho story of the | ladder, I could not he!p thinking that the same | 1 | instrument had, perchance, while in the hands | of some Indian Romeo, discoursed most elo- | quent music, to a belle of the tribe, who, like | Juliet, would step out on her balcony and pour | | forth her love and fealty to ber soul’s idol in re- He | and Raexting esis passion—recount to her | his perilous ’scapes in the chase—talk of bof- corn dances, and scalps; while she eagerly de- | him, where she would go fur him, how she was | willing to pack meat, make moccasins, hoe | | corn, dig potatoes, and do out-duor work | generally, besides sitting up of nights for his sake, and for no other person’s sake would she | He wou!d then, as in duty bound, jure her to fly—instantly fly with him, on a cho- sen steed, to the farthest prairies—fly anywhere, everywhere, so that she was with him, and only | him.

Little skilled am I in the vocabulary of an | Indian girl’s pledges of love; but as in these | affairs between parties ia civilized life each makes out as long a catalogue as possible of what he or she intends to do to make the other completely happy, it is more than probable that the case is the same among the uncivilized chil- dren of the prairies. Love is a very pretty theme for poets to dwell apon, and many of them | | have been known to dive upon it in the absence | of more substantial food; but there is more of matter-of-fact even in thie same love than your sentimentalists would make us believe, and oc- casionally those afflicted with it have a decided preference for mush, mutton, and safety over moonbeams, weceeaaks, and incensed mothers —and hence the Indian girl’s to eaping the balcony, This is all mere hr fatale reader may take it for what it is worth, while I return to my narrative.

I heardit-stated that the whites were guilty of bringing on this war by some actof bad faith towards the’ Wacoes, and the wound they then received has never been healed. From the fact of their hurrying off their women and chil- dren, as well as their large cavallada of borses and mules, it was evident that they placed no reliance in our assertion that we came among them with pacific intentions—they had heen deceived hy our men once, and Indian-like, looked for another violation of our words. The village we visited probably contained three or four hundred inhabitants, and there were others, both up and down the river, which we could sce in the distance. A crossing of the river was effected about ten o’clock in the morning, and after winding slowly through the | village, the command continued the journey | along the fertile bottoms ef the river, our course a little south west. Carlos said confidently that it was the Red River, and no one doubted, tor a moment that we were upon the hanks of that stream, some distance above Coffee’s Upper Station. The latter is a well-known trading- house high up on Red River, and the place where the different Indian tribes rendezvous to barter off their skins for rifles, blankets, and ammunition. At night we encamped upon the banks of the stream. Although the waters of the river, asI have before remarked, were brackish, a pure and fresh stream was discovered by. This was used by the men, but the cattle and horses would not touch it when they could obtain the river water. All the spoil we took from the Waco village consisted of a few pumpkins; the houses and everything about them were left untouched.— Fine fish were now caught i in the stream, which, with our regular rations and pompkins we had procured in the morning, gave usateast. Ma- | ay of my readers may think this but a meagre feast—boiled beef, fried fish, and boiled pump- | kins—but they should recollect that we had eat- en no vegetable substance for nearly two months and that-even fried eatfish was a rare dainty. During the day, Indians were seen scouting about on the distant hills, watching our move- ments; but our position was a strong one, and although we anticipated, no one feared the con- sequences of a night attack, farther than the | danger of having our horses run off. The fact that the Indians did not make an at- tackupon us, or attempt to steal our horses, was | probeby owing to the circumstance that they ad seen our six pounder. It is well known that | the Gdmanches and other prairie tribes have the greatest dread of cannon, and can never be in- | duced to approach within a mile of them. The story is told that a large party of Camanches attacked, many years since, one of the early | Missouri expeditions journeying with a small cannon, loaded with grapeshot and rifle-bullets. So greatly did the savages outnumber the | traders, that they felt confident of an easy and | sudden victory, and impressed with this belief attacked them in a solid body, and with their | usual yells. The»traders calmly waited until | they bad approached within a few yards, when ‘they let fly among them the unexpected shower | of missiles. The gun was well directed, and sent a large number of the Indians tumbling to | the phen Those who escaped were so pan- ic-stricken at the strange discharge, which car- ried such fearful destruction to their ranks, that they instantly wheeled and fled, and could not be induced to renew the aftack. Overrating. as they did, the power of a cannon from the effect | of this well-directed and fortunate shot, from that day to the present no party of the tribe has evor dared attack openly any company for- tunate enough to possess a fieldpiece. The tame of the big gun of the whites, so it is said, has spread from the Camanches to the neigh- boring tribes, and to such an extent has the sto- ry of its powers been magnified, that it is diffi- cult to get an Indian within its utmost range. Artificial Fish Ponds,—aA writer in the Al. baay Cultivator, who has lately visited Mr, Van | Buren’s farm at Kinderhook, gives a glowing account of the princely improvements on the grounds and gardens.—Among the objects which g've beauty and interest to the grounds, are two artificial ponds in the garden. They were easily made by constructing dams across a little brook originating from springs on the premises. Soon alterthey were made, (three | years ago) some fish were put inte them and they are now so well stocked with trout, pick- erel and perch, that Mr. Van Buren assures us’ theywwill-afford an abundant’ supply for his table. ‘This is a matter well worthy of cmsid- eration, “[here are many situations where such perch ponds may be made, and with a t expense, the luxury of catching and eating # fine trout or pickerel may be had at. any time. ——— — ‘ Two dollars in advance and two dollars and fifty cents at the’ end of the year.

But to the above the Editors have to adda word. It is known that the same enterprize has been two or three times before attempted by others ; and that they failed as signally as they were weakly begun.— We care not to investigate the causes, but their failure has stood greatly in the way of the present undertaking. We only give unqualifiad assurance that this Review will appear every month for one year at least, from January, 1845. Whether it shall continue longer must depend up- on the support of those who can see the importance of such a work. This support we earnestly request, believ- ing that the work willbe in all respects.able and usefal. The Review will be published in the city of New York, to be called “ The American Review,”—A Whig Journal of Politics, Literature, Arts and Science. Terms: Five Dollarsa year; paid on receiving the first number. Each number containing a hundred and twelve pages, printed in double celumpes, on-fine paper, will consist of a leading political article, with literary miscellany in histo- ry, biography, criticism, fiction, poetry, statistics, science; and the ar’s, froin the ablest writers in the country. -No. 1. bearing date January, 1845, will appear preliminarily in a few days. It will contain powerful articlesfrom va- rious writers, with two beautiful mezzotint Engrayings of Mr Clay and Mr. Frelinghuysen, with sketches of their life and character. [very second or third number afterwards will also present a likeness and sketch of some distin- guished American. The conduet of the Review will be under the control of George H. Colton, associated, however, with other gentlemen of known standing and attainments. To Committees, Societies, Clay Clubs, &c., the follow- ing terms are offered : Five copies $20 ; Thirteen copies for $50.

Duncan Camron, the Presidént, in the Chair. On invitation of the President, the Rev. Davi Licr, of this City, tead the XLX Pealm. ©!» ~The President :then delivered an Address; giving « brief and rapid view‘of the origin and progress of the Society—its alternations of prosperity and adversity, and the renewed vigor of its operations within the last two. years, The Address displayed enlightened and ‘enlarg-" ed views of the nature and. objects of the Society, and. that its members—though accustomed to worship at dif- feent Altars—felt deeply sensible of the close and inte- resting relation which they sustain towards each other, on one common pletform, and drawn together by a eom- mon bend, which unites in one family all the Redeemed on earth and in Heaven. Extracts from the Annual Report of the Board of Managers, were then read by Rev. Mr. Lanepoy, the Agent.of the State, followed by # verbal statement of | many interesting facts, relative tothe extensive destitu- tion of the Word of God in: many parts of our Stete—. the eager and ever-increasing desiré té obtain it—the extent of supply already effected—the obstacles’ to be encountered from ignorance and prejudice—the ‘active zeal of many of the Distributors—the amount of funds ‘collected, and the amount needed every year for the suc- cessful prosecution of the great work. This-was followed ‘by-a.-shori address from er higat and venerable friend; Hon, Judge Potter, in which he gave utterance to his long cherished and ardént attach- ment to the Bible cause, and his hearty good wishes and prayers for its increasing prosperity. The meeting, which was favored with the presence of the Rev. Dr. Brigham, Corresponding Secretary of the American Bible Society, was held for nearly an hour in deep and fixed attention to an Address from him, which, for the instructiveness of its statements, the ennobling” | elevation of its sentiments, and the cogency of its rea- soning, we have rarely known to be equalled. We will not attempt an analysis, lest we should do it gross injus- tice ; nor can we venture to say more of the closing Speech, made by our own highly gifted and distinguish- ed fellow-citizen—a genuine son-of the good old North State—President Swain. We confess that with the em- otions that were thrilling our whole frame when Dr. Brieuam took his seat, we felt some solicitude when our friend arose to address the audience. Their feelings, if like our own, were wrought up to such a state, that no common address could have sustained it. Btt he had not uttered the first sentence, before all our apprehensions were dissipated, and we were led along, or rather, borne along irresistibly by a deep, strong, majestic current of shought and feeling, to which we freely yielded up our- selves. In such a place and on such an occasiow, we had no time to indulge the feeling, and perhaps it might have been wrong, if it pad ocearred to us-—but now, while looking back on that brilliant auditory, with the sounds of his stirring appeal still ringing in our ears, we cannot help feeling proud that North Carolina has sach | a son—the University such a President—and ourselves’ such a friend. On the whole, the Addresses delivered were remarka- | ble for their adaptedness to the occasion of the mect- | ing—making eloquent and powerful appeals to the un- | derstandings and hearts of Statesmen, Citizens and_Chris- tians, were calculated not only to illustrate, but to prove | the proprety and necessity of the whole State’s uniting | its exertions in one great, noble, honorable effort, to cir- | culate the Holy Scriptures within our bounds, and throughout other parts of our country, and of the world. The meeting was begun, conducted, and concluded with | a decorum and solemnity, and with a spirit of harmony, | and unanimity, and zeal, which we hope will always | characterize the meeting of our fellow-citizens for pro- | moting the best interests of mankind ; and which, we trust, will increase and extend, till the word of life shall be put into the hands of the thousands upon thousands, who are now in spiritual darkness. The Officers of the Society for the ensuing year are the following : z Hon. Duncan Cameron, President. Gen. Alfred Dockery, Dr. Thomas N. Cameron, Hon. David L. Swain, Hon.

He spoke of its effects in degrading the character and habits of the lower or- der of people, which he illustrated by fact e+falling under his own observation, and in| 4| speaking of the ‘extreme low price of la- | ‘bor, he said he saw a large hreakwater | which had just been ereeted in one of the | principal rivers, where the price of labor | had been only ninepence, (England mon- ey) per day... One.efleet of this low rate of wages was the inability to marry at the usual age in this eountry;:as. the young man. could not support a family. "Phecon- | sequence was an alarming ‘increase of il- | ‘legitimate childréem. He thought that in this vice that country was second only to France herself.

His remarks upon the | Free Church movement in Scotland, may, | perhaps give some facts which are new to our readers. The established church of | Scotland, (Presbyterian) is under the pat- | ronage of government, which regulates | and pays the salaries &c. of its ministers. | Each parish has what is called a Patron, | who;.upon a vacancy, nominates to the go- vernment the name of a candidate whom | he then presents to the parish.

The Hon. Roger B.

Tariff duties wey possibly aece!- erate this period, by giving adequate prot to the trade th its ancy, which, we apprehend, competition would scarcely do; and though this is at variance with the abstract principles of free trade, we certainly think the Americans would be excessively stupidif they did not avail themselves of theie own ‘resourcess essential articles which at present are partly drawn from foreign countries, we may look fer- ward to being amply supplied by our own cole- nies, as the resources of those colonies become fully developed: wool for example, from. Aus- tralia and the Cape of Good Hope; while we think it net unreasonable to assume that the | time will arrive when our possessions in the Southern Ocean may render us independent of Russia for hemp and tallow. Such heitig the-actial position of Great Brit- | ain and her future prospects, we again repeat | that if she is only true do herself, she possesses | that no power can | resources within hersel shake; hence it is that those qnerulous bemean- ings, and awful anticipations of national ruin, | which we so often hear, excite no alarm fn us. A soon Story with a Goop Morar.— “ Where were ye yesterday, Pat, when ye ought to have been atthe school?” asked a respecta- ble Irish adopted citizen, long a resident of this country, of his hopeful son and heir, who bas | enjoyed the privilege of the “ accident of birth” on this instead of the other side of the ocean. “ Out with the Natives, to be sure, for aint I a Native ?” was the patriotic reply. “Then take that for your company—and this | —and this!”’ was the paternal rejoinder, with a running accompaniment not difficult to be im- agined. . “Tt is not for the licking I care,” said the young Native, as he went forth blubbering a- mong his companions, “ but to be struck by one of them cursed foreigners—that’s what I’m mad at!” Hints To Lovers or Frowgers.—A most | beautiful and easily attained show of evergreens in winter may be had by a very simple plan, which had been found to answer remarkably well ona small scale. If geranium branches are taken from healthy and luxuriant trees just | | before the winter sets in, cut as for slips, and immersed in soap and water, they will, after drooping for a few days, shed their leaves, put forth fresh ones, and continue in the finest vigor all the winter. By placing a number of bottles thus filled in flower baskets, with moss to con. ceal the bottles, a show of evergreens is easily fresh water. An important. fact in Natural History.— ‘There is a verse in the Bible,” said the ve- ry talented author of “ Doctor Hookvell,” (and | country, were demanding and expecting | Who, by the way, is a second sort of Charles | that the government would give them a} Waterton in this country,) “ which I did not ful. | ly understand until explained to me by an old shepard of Salisbury Plain ; and it is to be found his opinion that ere long the supporters of | in Jeremiah xxl, 11, namely, “ As the partridge | in } sitteth on eggs and hatcheth them not; s0, he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them | Mr. | in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be | a fool.’ ” “And what is the explanation?” I eagerly asked. “The old shepherd—and a venerable man, ' with flowing locks of snow, he was—told me, | that the partridge never does batch its eggs, but ; always forsakes its nest near hatching-time, cov- ering up the eggs lightly with leaves, &c., and that the birds are hatched of themselves. He vouched positively to the truth of this, and told me of the number of nests he had closely watch- ed; but he added that he always found this fact hé had“come to’ the conclusion, from his} to be new to gentlemen and to game-keepers to | whom he told it.” London Sporting Magazine.
