The next morning was vvarmnr Ihnnseveral had preceded it. It was one of those uncommonly line days that dis- tinguish an Ameiicanautumn. I guess said Mr. Slick, the heat to day is like a glass of mint ji:lip, with a lump of ice in it,it tastes cool and feels warm its real good, I tell you; I love such a day as this dearly. It's generallyallowed the finest weather in the %vorld is in A- merica there aint the beat of it to be found anywhere. lie then lighted a cigar, and throwing himself back on his chair, put both feet out of thewin- dow, and sat with his arms folded, a perfect picture of happiness. You appear, said I, to havetravelled over the whole of this Province, and to have observed the country and the peo pie withmuch attention, pray what is your opinion of the present state and future prospects of Halifax? Ifyou will tell me, said he, when the folks thera will wake up, then 1 can answer you, but they are fastasleep; as to the Province, it's a splendid province, and calculated to go ahead; it will grow as fastas a Varginy gal, and they grow so amazin fast, if you put your arm round one of their necks to kissthem, by the time you're done, they've grown up in- to women. It's a pretty Province I tell you, goodabove and better below; sur^ face covered with pastures, meadows, woods, and a nation sight ofwater privileges, and under ground full of mines it puts me in mind of the soup at the 7'ree-monthouse. Ono day I as walking in the Mall, and who should 1 meet but Maj. Brad- ford, a gentlemanfrom Connecticut, thatlradedin calves and pumpkins for the Boston market. Says he. Slick, wheredo you get your grub to day ? At General Peep's tavern, says I. Only fit for niggers, says he: whydon't you Gome to the Trenmont house, that's the most splendid thing generally allowed in all theworld. Why, says I, that's a notch above my mark, I guess it's too plagy dear for me, I can't aflfordit no hovr. Well, says he, it's dear in one sense, but its dog cheap in another its a grand place fora speculation there's so many rich southerners and strangers there that have more monoy thanwit, that you might do a pretty good business there without going oat of the street door. I cnadetwo hundred dollars this morning in little less than half no time. There's a Carolina lawyer there, asrich as a bank, and says he to me arter breakfast, Major,says he, I wish I knew whereto get a realslapping trotter of a horse, one that could trot with a flash of lightning for a mile, and beat it by a


whole neck or so. Says I, my Lord, (for you must know, he says he's the nearest male heir to a Scotchdormant peerage,) my Lord, says I, I have one, a proper sneezer, a chap that can go ahead of a rail-road steamer, a real natural traveller, one that can trot with the ball out o( the small ecnd of a rifle,and never break into a gallop. Says he Major, I wish you would'nt give me that are nickname, I don'tlike it, (tho he looked as tickled all the time as pos lible.) I never knew, says he, a lord thut wornt afool, that's a fact, and that's ^, the reason I don't go ahead and claim the title. Well, says I, my Lord,I don't know, but somehow 1 can't help a thinkin, if you have a good claim, you'd be more like a foolnot to go ahead with it. Well, says he, Lord or no Lord, let's look at your horse. So away I went toJoe Brown's livery sta- ble, at tother eend of the city, and picked out the best trotter he had, andno great stick to brag on either: says I, Joe Brown, what do you ax for that are horse? Two hundreddollars, says hn. Well, says 1,1 will take him out and try him, and if I like him I will keep him. So 1shows our Carolina Lord the horse, , and when ho gets on him, says I, Don't let him trot as fast as hecan, reserve that for a heat; if folks find out how everlasting fast he is, they'd be afeared to stumpyou for a start. When he re^ turnedi ha said he liked the horse ama~ zingly, and axed the price, fourhun- dred dollars, says I, you can get nothin ', special without a good price, pewter cases never holdgood watches; I know iti says he, the horse is mine. Thinks I to myself, that's more than ever I couldsay of him then any how. Weil, I was going to tell you about the soup says the Major,its near aboutdinner time, jist coma and see how you like the location. There was a sight of folks there, gentlemenand ladies in the public room,(I never seed so many afore except at commencement day.) all rea-dy for a start, anrf when the gong soun- ded, off we sot like a flock of sheep. Well, if there warn't ajam you may depend some give me a pull, and 1 near about went heels up over head, so I reachedout both hands, and caught hold of the first thing 1 could, and wliat sliould it be but a lady's dresswell, as I'm tilivc, rip wont the frock, and tear goes the petticoat, and when 1 righted myself frommy beamecnds, away they all came home to me,and theje she was, the pretty critter, with all herupper riggin standing as far as her waist, and nothin left below but a short linen under garment. Ifshe did'nt scream, it's a pity, and the more she screamed, the flore folks larfed, for no soul couldhelp larfin, till one of the waiters folded her up in a table cloth. Well, I gets near the Major at table,and afore me stood a china utensil with two handles, full of soup, about the size of a foot tub, with alarge scoop in it, near about as big as a ladle of a maple sugai kettle. I was jist about bailing out somesoup into my dish, when the iVLij^rsaid, fish it up from the bottom, Slick, well, sure enough, I gives ita drag from the bottom, and up come the fat pieces of turtle, and tho rich thick soup, and a sight oflittle forced meat balls. No soul could tell how good it was it was near about as handsnm as fatlier'sold genuine particular cider, and that you could feel tingle clean away down to the tip eends of yourtoes. Now, says tho Major, I'll give you. Slick, a new wrinkle on your horn. Folks aint thought nothingof, unices they live at Treemont: it's all the go___ Do you dine at Peep's tavern every day, and thenoff hot foot to Treemont, and pick your teeth on the street steps there, and folks will think you dinetnere. I do it often, and it saves two dollars a day. Then he put his finger on his nose, and says he,


"./Ifum is thr, aord.^' H YPOC^mCALTHUS B AND. "Why in ail laziness isn't breakfast ready ?" This isthe gentleman's first "saluta> tion to the morn," delivered in a tone of voice admirably expressive ofhaving arisen from lii.: ronrh i^itK r. cloto.-..-.;r*.v tion of being in a particularly ill humor for the restof the day, or, as ihe saying is, "got out of bed wrong end foremost." "But my dear, it is not late." "Notlate! not late! Suppose I chose to have breakfast a trico earlier than usual when I'm half starved. Butpeo- ple are so infernally lazy in thi'f house Ah! here it comes at last! The old story muddy coffee .It is strange that I can never be allowed a drop o( chocolate of which 1 am so passionately fond.""Well, my dear, why do you not raenlion it before hand?" "Why do you never ask mo if J should preferit?" "You generally lake coffee even when we have chocolate upon the table. And what of that! Thevery reason why I should prefer now and then chocolate for a change. At any rate, it would not giveyou a great deal of trouble to ,-isk my pleasure once in a while. Who made that fire? Or rath er vfhowas idofic enough to imagine that that pile of green logs could ever be converted into a blaze I'll behang- ed if the people in this house know enough to make a fire. Pray can you inform me what thisdark colored mess is supposed to represent?" "That brown toast." "I thought so' by heavens; thiswas put upon tlie taDle expressly lo enrage mo you know I hate the abominable stuff. I heard someone ring this morning who was it?" "Why that young man, that what's his name who has been tosee you.you know I told him you had gone out you say he's such a bore. 1 knew you wouldn't liketo be bothered with him at breakfast time." The married man throws himself back in his chair andsmites the unof- fending table with his fist, to the evi dent astonishment of the cups and sau- cers."And who authorized you to deny me to my friend! You are always making some stupid blunder.1 made a particular appointment with that young man to see him this morning. And you havetold him I was not at home! It sacms to be your sole study to see what you can do to put me in apassion." And in his rage, he unconsciously brings one elbow in contact with his coffee cup whichconsequently losing livered upon his brocade dressing gown "There! Nqw i hope you are satis fiodyou have been the means of ruin- ing my morniag gown, which cost me twelve dollars day beforeyesterday!" "I'm sure I didn't request you to up- set your coffee." "But you put mo in a pssston." "I putyou in a passion? You have been crass as a bear ever since you got up," "Take care! Don't you imposetoo much upon my good nature." "You're a brute, for all you're so mighty loving before folks." fcti..v."Will you hold your tongue^j^j. "Every body thinks you'ie a pattern of a husband, and that I am th6hap- piest wife in the world. Oh! if they knew how you abuse me when we are by oursclvep." "Willyou hold your tongue?" (with a grinding nccompaniment of the teeth.) "And yet, before company,I must pretend to be mightily pleased when you kiss me Pah!" "If you don't hold your tongue thisinstant I'll throw this cup at your head ! "You dare not! you dare not, you vile monster!" "Ah. I'm amonster, am I Whiz! and a cup is launched at her head with the very best intentions, which howeverare frustrated by the lady's stooping, which could only have been acquired by the most frequent andper- severing practice. She escapes the mis- sile, but alas! no8 the brutal blow.which speedily followsit, from the hard hand of the Hypocritical Husband, who doubtless considers it his duty to pun- ish


her for his having broken a coffee cup and damaged his dressing gown. Hark! the door bell rung,and now the poor wife vainly endeavors to sup press her tears and sobs. The servant aimouhces avisiter. The hypocritical husband approaches her with a threa tening air, and say8 "You're not surelygoing to blubber before company! Dry your eyes quick- ly, or else, by heavens, as soon as they arcgone I'll resume my remarks where I left off" The visiter is ushered in. The hy pocritJcal husbandimmediately assumes a cheerful, acaiable expression, and passes the usual compliments in tonesof singularly sweet and gentle modula- tions. The visiter, (a lady) rematking the appearance of theagitated wife,ex- claims: "Bless mc! how pale you look! how red your eyes are! Have you been un-well!' But our gentleman will not trDst to his wife to reply, and hastens to explain with "Oh nothingis the matter! She gat up very late last night reading ruin- ous to the eyes you know. I often tell her:"My dear, you abuse yout eye- sight reading small print by candlelight, but she won't listen to me;and you see the c.msequence the next morning, she's pale as a ghost, and her eyes look exactlyas if she'd been, crying. But she won't do so again, will you, love? She's promised me to be a goodlittle girl; haven't you dailing?" So saying the affectionate creature presses her fondly. THE LATEPRESIDENTIAL VE TOES. Contrary to any former exercise of the Executive Veto upon Bills that hadpassed both Houses of Congress,the re- cent Vetoes upon the Harbor Improve ment Bill and the OldFrench Claims Bill have roused the indignation of the political friends of the Administration quiteas much as that of its opponents. Of this we have many evidences on the table before us. The onlyone that we can find room for to day is the following from one of the most constant and thor- oughgoing Democratic prints in any part of the United States, both the kn- gunge Qud tho substanceof which far transcend in severity any thing that we have read from the Whig press on the subject.From the Ohio Statesman, August 7. We are partial to Vetoes. We highly approved of that by whichJackson killed the Dank of the United States, smiting the monster under the fifth rib, and those ofTyler were especially gratifying to us, as they alone, after a de- feat of 1840, saved the countryfrom being cursed with another institution of the kind, to be the head of the money power, andto enable it more surely to destroy public liberty. We say this to show that we have no hostility tothe veto power, which we think one of the most wholesome provisions of the constitution. Ourreaders will, we doubt not, give us credit for sincerity when we say, that, while holding such opinionsas these we most warmly condemn the conduct of President Polk in vetoing the river and harborbill; and wo have no hesita- . tion in saying that his course should be its equiUbncm,th8 contents areduly de-. pointedly condemned by every Western Democrat. The message in which the Presidentsupports his views is a shal- low preformance, vulgar in its language, ridiculous for its false logic, andpaltry as the treatment of a thesis by some hair-splitting and wire-drawing school- man of the middleages,who thought himself a great man, because, like all small characters, he has mistaken cunningfor wisdom. It is, hovvever, quite wor- thy the man whose imbecility has been so unhappily displayedin his action on the Oregon question first uttering boasts of tho loudest kind, and then sneaking offthe cover when the enemy's bay was faintly heard in the distance. There is a remarkable similarity


in the President's conduct on these two sab- jects. As he mouthed and raved about our "clear andaquestionable" right to tho whole of Oregon, like unta one of Nat Lee's bedlamite heroes for we callit mouthing and raving, when the bathos of the treaty is known to us, however much it pleased usat the time ofits u' tcrance,because we believed it to be the warmest language of earnestness & sin-eerily so has he now vetoed a bill sub- stantially receommended by himself, through the report efthe Secretary of War, a high officer of his cabinet. It is true that the defence has been ast ap for himthat tho Secretary, though re porting through the President, really reports to Congress. Granted:but this does not in the slightest degree alter the caso. It has always been considered at least it wasin those days when it was thought thai some degree of profound statesmanship was necessaryin govern- 'ng a great nation that a Cabinet ihould support one uniform policy, as speaking thesentiments of the party whose principle it was appointed to aid in carrying out. Whoever heard of ahigh Cabinet officer recommending to Congress, through the President, a a course of action directlycontrary lo thatof the President himself, and actual- ly accompanied with the proper esti- mates asto the cost of carrying it out whoever heard of any thing of the kind, we ask, before these days ofdeception and palpable fraud? What President, with a decent portion of self respect, ever practisedsuch small intrigue? It is new in the history of our country, and no doubt found its origin and motivein the desire lo deceive some members of Congress into the support of measures which the Exeutivefeared might not otherwise prove successful. As the great words about Oregon were follow- edby the smallest possible action, and ni.ro iot.ndod nnly to cull honest men, so was the course ofthe President on the subject of improving harbors and rivers favorable, only with the design ofgaining votes for the new tariff bill, the Administration not having faith enough to believe that onerighteous measure could stand without practising a little falshood OB another. We most earnest-ly hope that the day is not conaing when every true Democrat will have, in bit- terness of heart, loask pardon of God and man for having aided in elevating lo power men who mistake treachery forgood conduct, and paltry shifts for great statesmanship. * * * The plain truth is, that the ve- to ofthis measure is o( vital importance to our seetion of the Republic, is but a carrying out of that harshand unjust policy towards the West that the Ad- ministration adopted at the commencement ofitsexistence, and which it haS pursued until now consistent in this if in nothing else; a policy which willcountenance nothing likely to aid us unless other parts are to reap more from it than we do, andwhich confines appointments to office from this region, with some exceptions, to places of thirdand fourth rate characters. We have been slow to believe in||tho existence of this hostile feeling;but we should be more blind than the dead were we not it see it now, and more cowardly than wetrust any thing could make us were we not to denounce it with whatever power we may possess.Wo are much opposed to that vpst S/ fantastic scheme of internal improve- ments advocated by theWhigs as any man in the nation; but we trust there is a medium between an exlravaganl schemeand absolutely doing nothing a mediam which real statesmen can hit and pursue as much to theirown honor as lo the real advantage of the nation. As to the ridiculous abstractions entertained by


some portion of the South on this subject, we believe no one here re- gards them with more respectthan the talk of the insane. Wo are a practical people, and we cannot understand why it is alwaysunconstitutional te fit a Wes- tern harbor for use, while millions upon millionscan be expendedupon Northern and Southern harbors without tho "sa- cred charter of our liberties" receiving thoslightest infraction. It surpasses the comprehension of plain men that it should bt^ so deadly a.wrong to spend a little money for the benefit of the West, while it is so very wise a thing to pour itout by oceans for the benefit of the East and the South. The Right Spirit The Lowell Courier inakasa bold stand for the labor and perservance oflho Yankee, and truly maiks: "As for New england-and Massachu setts, why we must do as well as we can. A French writer s tys that power is al- wayspopular "the rich are grateful to it for what it givs them, and the poor for what it leaves them." TheSouth have taken from us the protection of the law, but let us be thankful that they have left stronghands, which nothini; can tire, stoul hearts, which nothing can discourage; and a habit of labor,which nothing can destroy. ^Vlch these it shall go hard, but we will yet get a living, and make moneyin spite of all effort to prevent it," Foreign iVews. From the Baltimore Sun. ARRIVAL OF THE Great IVc s t c r n. SIX PATS LATER. The news by the steamer Great Wes tern reached Baltimore by tho boatat 11 o'clock last night, the accident to the telegraph preventing us from receiving any tidings of herarrival until a copy of W.lmer & Smith's European Times from our Philadelphia Agent came to hands.We are not informed at what time she reached New York, but pre- sume it must have been at anearly hour yesterday morning. The news she brings is but six days later than that received by thelast steamer. The cleetions seemed to engross the entire attenton of the press and the people ofFrance. In Spain the Queen's marriage was the general topic of discussion, with the claims of thedifferent candidates for her hand. The American Provision market continues tolerably steady. Beefis in good demand, but Pork is less so. The inferior kinds of both have been in more request. Cheeseand Grease Butter are lower. The harvest in the south of France is making some progress, but theresult docs not seem to be very satisfactory The extraordinary heat of the tempera- ture in June andJuly has caused a no- table defieiency in the crops. The Queen has been pleased to ap prove of Mr.James Flora, as Consul at Manchester for the United States of America. It appears that the failure inthe ap- ple crop is likely to be general through out Europe. It is stated that the Russian govern- mentis in consternation at the appre bended total failure of the present har vest. Private letters receivedat Paris give a detailed account of a horrible massa ere of some French and English at Mad agascar.The difficulties among the Repeal Wardens etill continue; and the weekly meetings of the Associationare occupied in constant bickerings, paralysing the best exertions of the friends of Irish freedom.The "learned blacksmith," Mr. Eli- hu Burritt, continues to excite much attention in England. Hs hasbeen lec- turing successfully in Manchester. The Chamber of Commerce at Liver, pool had addresseda highly complimen, tary letter to Mr. McLane, for his exertions in bringing about a settlement ofthe difllculties between the United States and Great Britain on the Oregon territory. Mr. McLaneappeared to be greatly pleased with so gratifying a compliment, emanating from that im- portant


body, and expressing as it did, the strong feelings of respect enlerlain- ed for his character, andof the high sense of the efficient services rendered, both to America and England, in tho peacefulsettlement of this question, of which Lord Aberdeen had also previ ously, in the House of Lords,borne honorable testimony. Thi JVew Pope. The German journals relate numerous instances ofthe Christian humility of the new Pope. "His cook (says one of these journals) one day served for hisdinner seven different dishes; Pius IX sent for him, and told him that when cardinal he never hadmore than three, and that he would not now change his habit. His holi- ness has reduced almost allthe expen- ses of his household. Four thousand Roman scudis which were annually spent in rareplants have been cut off from the budget, and half of the horses oflho pontifical stables have beensold.'' Flogging in the Army. We mentioned on the arrival ofthe Hibernia, that some excitementhad been caused by the death ofa soldier at the Houns- loTv barracks, after flogging. The fol- lowingis a portion of the testimony given before the coioner'sjuay: The man was fastened to a ladderwhich was nailed to tho wall of the ri- ding school. His hands were tied and his back was bare to theloins, with his shirt off and his trousers on. The col- onel and the adjutant were present and alsoDr. Warren. Crittcn gave 25 lashes, and then Evans took the whip and gave the nj-xt 2,5. The farriergives a flourish in the nir with the cat, and raises himself on his toes forward at every stroke. The25 stripes were given without cessation. They went on until the first 100 lashes had been given,when thov changed the whips, by order of the adjutant. The whips were then brought in, wrappedup in a cloth, and were handed out to the witnesses; each had nine throngs of whip cord, eachthrong knot- ted half way up at intervals ofa couple of inches; the handles, about eighteen inches inlength, were about the thick- ness of a man's thumb. The cords of two of the five cats were stained,har- dened and discolored with blood. The doctor did not approach .iny nearer to the deceasedduring the time he was under punishment. He called for a drink of viiter two or three times. Hedid not appeal lo the surgeon, nor did the surgeon ask him ttny questions. There was not morethan an interval ofa min- ute's time at the change of the cats. The blood eawie before the first twen-ty five was completed, nearly betweea the shoulders. There was a great deal of blood, and it randown into the deceased's trousers. He never uttered a word, but onco when the second cat3 weretaken. At the expirateon of 100 lashes, he cried out"bwer, lower." Calcutta, June 1st, 1846. The mostappalling accounts have just been received, ofthe destruction of life caused by a terrific hurricaneat Loodiana, v\hich, inthe night of the 90th May, blew down tho whole of the barracks, nine ranges,burying in their ruins nearly the whole of Her Majesty's 50th Re- giment, of whom were dug oatdead, 50 men, 14 women, and 20 childien, and wounded 126 men, 1 women, and five children;total, 84killed and 135 wounded; four men were still missing. This ^Ircadful etoim af dust, wiad,rain, thun- der and lightning, commenced about 6 p. m., and blew with a violence which can onlybe conceived by the frightful, and almost immediate result. The barrack ofthe 6th company fellfirst, and in five minutes the whole ofthe other barracks were leveled with Iho ground, crushing lodeath and wounding 219 unfortunate beings. These barracks were built with unbaked bricks. If any


thing were wanting to aggra- vate the horrors of this catastrophe, it would be found in the fact thatthese sufferers were the survivors of the late bloody victories; and that it was whilo reposing afterthe toils ofa glorious cam paign, or recovering in a hospital the strength which had well nigh themsunk, that the remnant of this "fierce and formidable old regiment" of the Peninsula was crushedunder the bricks and beams ^f a dilapidated barrack. The Maniac. an account or him- . SELF. I ama wild horse in the midst of a boundless prairie, urged on by the whips of a legion of demons. Iam a comet, driven by an unknown impulse through unlimited space, with, neither end nor aim, Iam a sea-gull, tossed by furious winds upon a shoreless ocean, whose waves assault the throne ofHeaven, and anon sink down to the fathomless abyss. I am a chronometer with a broken balance,onwird driven, regardless of time or space; and though shafts may break and cogs drop out in thegiddy wheel, my motto is always "Onward, onward." My brain is a farnace, my heart is an ice-house,my pulse la a death-watch, whose every beating announces the approach of an end of anguish anddes- pair. Anon the congregation of my visions and troubled thoughts sink down in stagnant pools,whose slimy depths exhale a stench as nauseous as a Stygi- an lake. This is my resling-placc. But, eremature, the congregated myriads of noi- some reptiles that hatch prolific in a bog like thiSjUprisingfrom the stagnant surface of the poisonous lake, with scales erect, and tongues of fire fasten- edon my lungs- Horror-stricken and oppressed by an incubus ofa thousand tons, my jaded spirit,impatient longer of a load so vile, seeks lo escape by sun ' icido- But daggers and knives of mur-derous length, and flexible twiiio, are deceptive in my grasp, like cobwebs in the cireling eddies ofintcnsest flame,,^ exhale by the slightest touch.

They went altogether in favor of impor- ting foreigngoods, and creating a market for the benefit of foreingers. Would our own agriculture be benefitedby a process like this? Nothing could more effectually divert the benefit from our own people andpour it in a constant stream upon /orcign labor. No American interest was so much benefited byn pro- tective system as that of agriculture. The foreign markets was nothing, the home marketwas every thing to them; it was as orle hundred to one. The Tariff gave us the great home market,while (ho gon- tleman's scheme was to secure us, at best but the chance of a market abroad, whileit effectually des- troyed our secure and invaluable market at home. Gentlemen were very anxiousto co.-npete with the panpei labor of Europe. I will tell them one fact: With all the protection we nowei joy, Great Britain sends into this country eight do lars' worth of her agriculture productions toone dollar's worth of all our agricultural productions(3ave cotton and tobacco) that she takes fromus. This 1 will |)rove by the returns Airnishcd by Mr. Walker himself in support of the bill vvhtch holias hiid before thoCemmittee ol Ways and Mean.s. Now I assort, and can prove, tliat wore than hallthe value of all the British merchandise imported into this country consists of agriculture products,changed in form, converted and manufactured into goods. And I invite a thorough analysis of thefacts. 1 challenge gentlemen to the scrutiny. Take down all the articles in a store, one after anotherestimate tlie value of the raw material, the bread and meat, and other agricultural products, whichhave entered info tlieir fabrication, and it will be found that one-half and more of thtir value cons-isls of the protluctions of tho soil__agricultural produce in its strictest sense. Nov,', by reference toMr. Walker's report, it will be seen that, for twelve years back, wo have imported from Great Britainand her dependency annnally 52i millions of dollars worth of goods, but call it 50 millions, Whllo ahatook of all our agricuUurug products, save cotton and tobacco, less than two and n half millious fo


dollars w orth. Thus, then, assuming one-half tho value of her goods to be agricultural, it i^ivos us25 millions of her agricultural produce to 2i millions of ours taken by her, wliich is just ten to one; toavoid cavil, 1 put it eight to one. To test the truth of his position, he was prepared, if time permitted,to refer to nmnerous facts. But for tho in- formation of gentlemen who are such great friends to thepoor and oppressed farmers, 1 will tell them that we have imported yearly,for twenty-six years,(sosays Mr. Walker's report.) more than ten millions of dollars worth o( woollen goods. Last year weimported I'lO,666,176 worth. Now, one half and more of tho value of this cloth was made up of wool,ami the sub- sistence of labor and other agricultural prodnetions. The general estimate is, that thevrool alone is half. The universal custom among farmers, when they had their wool manufacturedon the shares, was to give the mauufacturer half the cloth. Thus we import^:' and our farmers haveto pay, nrfive millions of dollars worth of foreign wool every year in the form of cloth, mostly theproduction of sheep feeding on the grass and grain of Great Britain, while our own wool is worthlessfor want of a market; and this is the policy gentlemen recommend to American farmers. Yes, sir,and not satisfied with fi-oe. millions, they wish to increase it to Icn millions a year for foreign wool.Will gentlemen deny this? They dare not. They supported Mr. Walker's bill, reducing the duties onwoollens nearly one-half, with a view ioincnase the revenue; of course, the imports must be doubled,making the import of cloth twenty mil- tinna lr>E>/>^/l nf ton, and of vvnol ton xQctoud of fivomillions of dollars per annum. This was the plan to favor the farmers, British farmers, by givingthem the Amp.rian market. Their plan was to bey everything, sell nothing, and gel rich. (A laugh.)What was to cloth was equally true as to everything else. Take a hat, a pair of shoes, n yard of silk orlice, analyze it, resolve it into its constituent elements, and you will find that the raw material, andthe substance of labor, and other agricultural products, constituted more than one half its entirevalue. The pauper labor of Europe employed in manufacturing silk and lace got what it eat, no more;and this is what you pay for when you purchase their goods. Break up your home man- ufacturesand homo markets, import everything you eat and drink and ware, for the benefit of the Farmers, Ohwhat friends these gentlemen are to the farmers

Last year, according to Mr.Walker's Report, we imported $9,043, 39trworthofforiegn iron; and its manufactures, mostly fromGrcatBritain,four fifths of the value of which, as every parctical man knew, consisted of agricultu- ralproduce nothing ehe.

And what sustained this labor but corn and o;its, hay find straw for the one, andbread and moat and vege- tables of every kind for Use other. These agricultural products wero pur-chased and consumed, and this made up nearly tho whole price of the iron which the manufacturerreceived and paid over to the farmers again and again, as often as the process was repeated. Well, isnot iron made in England of the same materials that it is made of here? Cer- tainly; then is not four-fifths of the value of British iron made up o( British agricultural produce? y\nd if wo t>ur- chasenine millions of dollars vi'Orth of British iron a yea"-, do wo not pay six or seven millions of tliis sumfor the produce of Uiilish farmers grain, hay, grass, bread, meat, and other provisions for man andbeast sent here for sale in the form of iron? lie put it to tiie gentlemffn from Virginia (Mr. Bayly. tosay if this was not true to the letter) He challenged him to deny it, or dis proue it if he coii d.

''From suchfriends good Lord deliver </(!'' Oneremaik more on this topic. Secretary Walker informs us that thepresent duty on iron is 75 per cent., which he proposes to reduce to 30 per cent., to increase therevenue. To do this, must he not then double tha imports ef iron? Clearly he must. Then a must addten or twelve millions per year to our present imports of iron, and of co'irse destroy that amountof our domestic supply to make room for it. Thus, at a blowj in the single article of iron, this bill isintended to destroy the American markets for at least eight millions of dollars worth of domestic ag-ricultural produce to bo supplied from abroad; and this the Ameriftm no! the British system of policywhich is now attempted to be imposed upon this ' country by this British-hiding Admin- iilration!Let them doit, and in less than tvve years there will not be a spo ciebank in the country The peopleand the Trcasilry will bo again bank- rupt, and the scenes and sufferings of 1849 will return; andwith it, as a necessary corise{|uence, the political revo- lutions of that period.

M;vke upyour mind to do a thing, and you will surely do it. Fear not^ if trouble come upon you; keep up yourspirits, though the day be a dark onn. Fight hard against a hasty temper; Anger will come, but resistit stoutly. A Spark may set a house nn fire. A fit of passion may give cause to mourn all the days ofyour life. Never revenge an injury. Whatever you do, do it willingly. A man tiiat is compelled to work,cares not liovv badly it is performed. Evil thoughts arc worse enemies than lions and tigers, for wecan keep out of the way of wild beasts but br.d thoughts win their way every where. The cup that isfull hold no more; keep yonr heads and hearts full fo good thoughts may find no room to enter. Ai,i.SAiton.

AMONG all the famous medicines foroonsumption none seems to be meeting with greater success, or gaininf a higher reputation thanthat most wonder- ful article, Wistars' Balsam of Wild Cher- ry. That it staiids at the head of all otherremedies is now universally conceded. It has cured thousands upon thousands of all classes, in casesof the most dangerous consumptive character, and physicians of the greatest eminence throughoutthe whole country unhesitatingly recommend it as the most powerful curative of pulnio nary diseasein the whole range of phar- macy. The sales in the Western States have thus far been unparallel,


and the most gratifying proofs of its eflicacy liave been received from everyplace where it has beenused. Thousands of consumptive patients have already tested its exalted virtues, and confessed itssurprising, ex- eellent and amazing powers, 'i'hc remarkable success of this balsam is no doubtowing in a great measure, to the peculiar ly agreeable and powerful nature of its ingredients. It isa hebal medicine, com posed chiedy of wild cherry bark und the genuine Ireland moss the latterimported expressly for this purpose rare medical virtues of which are also combined by a newchemical process with the extract of fir thus rendering the whole compound the most certain andefficacious remedy ever discovered for Consumption of the Lungs.

Gents: I take this opportunity of in forming you of a most remarkablecure performed on me by the use of Dr. Wis tar's Balsam of Wild Cherry. In the year 1331 I was takenwith an inflamation of tha bowels which I labored under for six weeks, when I gradually re covered.In the fall of 1841 I was attack ed with a severe cold, which seated itself upon my lungs; and forthe space of three years I was confined to my bed. I tfied all kinds of medicines, and every varietyof medical aid witheut benefit, and thus 1 wearied along until the winter of 1844. when I heardef'Wlstar's Balsam of Wild Cherry." Ms frifinds jiersuadpfl me to ^ive it a trial, though I had givenup all hopes of ro covery, and had prepared myself for the change of another world. Through theirsolicitation I was induced to make use of the "Genuine Wistar's Balsam of Wild Charry." The effectwas truly astonishing About five years ot amiciioij, pam, auu suffering, and aftea having spent fouror five hundred dollars to no purpose, and tha best and most respeclable physicians had provedunavailing,! was soon restored to entire health by the blessing of f^od and tha use of Dr. Wister'iBalsam of Wild Cherry. I am now enjoying good health, and such is my altered appearance that Iam no longer known when I meet ray former acquaintances. I have gainee rapidly In weight, andmy flesh is firm and solid. 1 can now eat as much as any person, and ra food seems to agree withme. I have eaten more during tha last six months than I had eaten for five years before, CoBsideringmy case almost a miracle, I deem it necessary for the good ofthe af- flicted, and duty 1 otve to theproprie- tors and my fellow men, who should know where relief may be had, to make the sub- jectpublic.

There is seldom anar- rival of thr" mail, but similar letters are received, and if justified iu incurring the expense, wemigiit fill the "Republican'* with them. We ask, as a matter of duty to them- selves as well as theirfriends, that any one, whose eye may ohance to fall upon this, to read the following letter slowly,pause frequently, think seriously, and then act DUtlDEDLV. Galena, III., Feb. 0, 1846, Messrs. D. Harter(S,- Co Gents: I havp sold all but nine boxes of your justly celebrated "Hkisrew Plas- Tfcu," and I havean order foi two dozen boxes more, which I cannot fill until you forward me a supply. Pleeso sendme a large supplj as soon as possible, for this Plaster is inuch thought of in this region, and thedemand for it is steadily increas- ing. The more it ia known tlie greater the demand. \ours truly, J.A. BARROWS. Danville, 111., Feb. 13, 1846. Messrs. D. Harter , Co. Gents: Wo are entirely out of the"Jew David's ois Hebrew Plaster" not having received any since you -.vere here about six weeks since,li -ivould be well to send us sooie (say 4 doxea boxes) soon. We have now been your agents forthesale of your "Hb BREW Plaster" and "Persian Pills" two years, and find their sales rapidly increa-sing, especially is this true of tlie Plaster. Respectfully vour friends, E. F. PALMER 6,- CO. By the aboveextracis an idea may be obrained somewhat correct too, of the character of the "IIerrew Plaster" and"I'ersian Pills," also the estimate in which they are held by those who best know them. We ventureto say, and this too after mature reflection and having the very meani for judging correctly, that oemedicines, are more popular, and give so general satisfaction as tiieso. Why is thisl Simply because


they do just what they pro mise. Call upon our agents and obtain a valuable pamphlet and learnwhat they do promise, and if suffering with any disease f'or which either are recommended, trythem any enjoy the blessings of health which result from their use. Beware of Counterfeits. We havelate- ly found true, ihat which for a long time we feared, viz: that some unprincipled villain, luredby the sordid motive ofgain, and the grrat popularity ofthe "HaBKEW^ Plaster" and "Persian Pills,"would set at nnught the laws of both God and man, and counterfeit them. W^e would caution thepublic not to purchase the above medicines of any but those who are supplied by "D. Harter <S-Co." sole agents for the west.
