Our fowlers wnl doubtless recollect the Dia logue, we published some time since, between en et-senator and a laborer. Hera is a continuation of it: From lb. Bedford Cournnt. DIALOGUE BETWEEN A LABORER AND EX•SENATOR CONTINUED. Laborer. Since our last conversation, Mr. Senator. I have been afraid, really that we aro going to have rather too much of a good thing. Senator. How so, neighbor. Laborer. Why, you provo to me that it was a good thing to have the price of labor reduced—that is, you told me the leaders of the party said so, and that they are al ways right. Now, the prico of labor is so much reduced, that I cannot get work o. nough even to earn my bread ; nod its just so with a great many other folks in our town. Now is'nt this too much of a good thing? Senator. Oh these changes always come a little hard at first—but ere's this about it, they don't work woll for the whiga. Have you read Mr. Calhoun's speech? ho proves very .clearly how thel thing will work. Laborer. Yes—l have. 'ls this the vamp Mr. Calhoun who abused Gen. Jack son so much, and who was called .the Cala lino of the senate'? Senator. Yes-4 rather think he is the sarno. I did'nt go to the sinit till after that time, and may be mistaken about it—but I rather guess it's the same man. Laborer. How happens it that he now belongs to our party ? Is he any better now than he used to be Senator. No, I suppose not— , but still we couldn't well do without him, and so we took him as hods.—But what do you think of his speech ? Labfirer. Can you tell me if this Mr. Calhoun is the same who studied law a Litchfield with Judge Reeve I Senator. 1 don't•know much about that. For myself, I never had much taste for the law—did'nt ltkeu study it, and you know it is not necessary; for our folks don't think much of law. • But to answer your ques tion—l think 'I have heard that Calhoun did, in his younger days, study law at Litch field. Laborer. Then ho must be 'the same man about whom I have heard the story. Senator. What story neighbor? - Laborer. Why, Judge Revee said one day, if he .wanted to prove that pumpkins grew on apple trees, that young Calhoun could do it. Senator. Yes—yes—he was always a smart fellow. Laborer. 'Pretty much like my smart horse, that's broke .his harness, and my sleigh and wagon, and that's got so bad a .name that nobody won't have him. He ,won't o tyli ; but his own was, and if -ne t inks you want to have him, he won't •go that. Senator. But how do you like his speech? Laborer. Why, he said, did he not, that the sub.treaeury would enable-those who own manufactories at the north, to sell theii goods so cheap in the foreign market as to , bring them in competition -with those made abroad Senator. Yes, and so it will. Laborer. But how can this be done, -un less labor is reduced to the same condition -and prieo as it is in Europe 7 Senator. Well, suppose it is—will it not be just as well I—for then you will get your pay in hard money. Laborer. It dont make much difference •to me whether the money is hard or soft, ill don't get any, I never have been able to see the differroce between a hard dollar and a bill which I could change for a hard •doller. Senator. This cry against a reduction in tho price of labor is all a whig measure, in tended moroly to deceive our friends —it will work well I assure you. Laborer. -1 find, Mr. Senator, that in-the -hard money countries of Europe the price of labor averages about ten cents a day, without board,—and do you really think that would be as well for us here, as the dollar, or dollar and-a half which we used -to receive? Senator. Why not: why is not ten-cents as good as ten dollars ? Laborer. Why then are there so many poor in those countries—and why are the laboring classes so anxious to get to the U. States? Senator. 'am sure 1 don't know—for we have poor people here, and men and women too, who want work. ••- •Laborer. We have now, 1-know—but it was not so formerly—every man who-wan ted to work found employment and got good wages. Senator. (Angrily.) You don't mean•to say that these times have been brought on by the administration. Laborer. No I don't moan to say , that— for lam no whig--hut still, I can't see why our democratic administration should be going to Europo to learn how to collect their revenues. I don't like this following the governments of Kings and Princes-1 don't think at .will improve our republican systems. :Senator. Calhoun was undoubtedly right in what ho said about the sub treasury--I toll you he's a great financier, and knows all about it. Laborer. I can see very dearly why he is anxious to lesson the price of productive labor, for then the cotton of the south will buy more of the manufactured articles of the north—but that don't exactly prove to -1110 that we ought to be in favor of it. Senator. But ynu are surely for the good .r( the whole, are you not Laborer. Yes, and for that very rerson . 1 am in favor of that kind of legislation that will effectually advance the interests of the whole nod not break down our growing es• .tablishment in order to bring in the pro ducts of other countries. I say frankly, ,air, I am.,uot in favor of having our laborers' receive but ton cents a day and find them advert. But I see you are preparing for the great discussion in which you will prove as clear as day light, that paper money is not as . good as gold :,so goad morning. A VIRGINIA DEFAIILTEIG.---TIIO Gov ernor of Virginia has issued a proclamation off:ring a reward of S2oo,—and the Bank of Virginia offers a reward of $3OOO for the apprehension of Wm. B. Dabney, the First Teller .of the institution named. The Richmond Compiler says: Tho proclamation charges that he has feloniously embezzled a considerable amount of the funds of the Bank, entrusted to his care, and the Bank notice specifies that he has embezzled a large amount of money in Bunk notes. There are n variety of rumors yet in cir culation relative to the amount embezzled, &c. The affair is painful enough, and has deeply distressed many or our citizens. Mr. Dabney up to the time of his disappearance, bore a spotless reputation, and commanded the warm esteem of all who knew him. His train of connexions is extensive and of groat respectability. He lett last Friday, and went as fur as Tayloraville on the tfichincnd and Frede ricksburg Railroad, whence it is supposed he proceeded westwardly. Ho had been for eleven years First Teller in the Bank, and enjoyed the most perfect confidence o the Directory and officers of the institution. From the Richmond Compiler April 13 THE EmaEzzimarEve CASE. — Tho ab sconding of the Ist Teller of the Bank of Virginia, and the astounding deficit in the Bank's funds since developed, have occa sioned an excitement in this community which we suppose was never equalled. The extensive, highly respectable and pop ular,connexions of the Teller. the cordial and' universal esteem and confidence enter tamed for him, give to the discovery of his guilt a degree of astonishment and pain not to be described. Words are inadequate to express the distressed state of public mind. Not the least painful view of the affair is the tendency it must .have to strengthen in our hearts the feeling of distrust of the hen• esty of our fellow men. Wm. B. Dabney's was a spotless reputation; his general de meanor was popular ; biz address manly end polite; his disposition kind and ac commodating—add to which he was an ac tive, able Bank officer. No opponent would have stood in the way of his promo. tion to the higher station in.the institution should a vacancy have occurred. And when such a man stoops to fraud, it is not surprising that Confidence should be dis mayed and alarmed—that she should look abroad with timid and suspicious glance, since she so late awoke but to weep. The deficit in the funds of the Bank is now ascertained to be 8400,000 with per haps the addition.of some $7)0,000. No officed announcement of the exact amount has been made. This will materially de press the energies and trade of our city. So much capital taken from its commerce must be a serious drawback. Let not the stockholders yield to the ru• mours which interested men may set afloat. There will be hawks about ; fear and ere dulity, are their abettors. Do not believe all you hear of the Bank or you will become their prey. Relative to the vat ious facts ascertaina ble with regard to the fraud which produ ced :the deficit, there aro many rumors; but we await the publication of a report from the Bank, which we may anticipate as a matter of course. The Bank of Virginia has increased its reward for tho Teller to $5,000. ANOTHER HARRISON VICTORY! The following gratifying intelligence iy from the Cincinnati Republican of Wednes- day the Bth inst. - GLORIOUS TRIUMPH! HARRISON MAJORITY IN THE CITY 1663!! THE WHOLE REGULARLY NO- MINATED HARRISON DEMOCRAT 1C TICKET IN EVERY WARD IN THE CITY (with the only exception o the Constable in the Third Ward) PRE• VAILED AT THE ELECTION ON MONDAY!!! Every exertion possible was made by the destructives to run in their candidates Our "Log Cabin" Ticket was counterfeited, and tickets headed "Harrison Ticket," but containing the names of some of their can didatei, were distributed,—and some of their candidates declined themselves at the polls Harrison men. Notwithstanding all these drawbacks to our success, we have obtained a GLO RIOUS, UNPRECEDENTED VIC TORY! Last year the Loco Foci's sue ceeded in electing four Council-men, and two Constables. On Monday, the only sol itary candidate carried by them was Mr. Riley for Constable, over Mr. Hazen, in the Third Ward—and this is very easily accounted for—Hazen having stated pub hely on the election day, that he did not want the office, and that ho thought of leaving the State. Under these circum etanr.es, it is not strange- that Riley beat . him—still his majority is but about 30. The Harrison majority in this Ward on the township ticket is 117. The result of this election is such as to satisfy the mast sceptical, that the sun of Van Buren is set. There were siiii-five candidates on the regularly nominated Harrison ticket —six ly-four of whom are elected. Scrruvo RIGHT. — The following para. ' graph is from the Pennsylvanian of yeste.- day.

LOCOFOCO RAPACITY.—Both branches of the Legislature passed a bill yesterday taking the Commissions from ONE HUN DRED AND SEVEN Notaries Public, at ' , one fell swoop," authorizing the Gov ernor to appoint others in their places. Ono hundred and seven public officers against whom not.a petition, not a word of com plaint had been preferred to tho Legisla• ture, are thus unceremoniously removed to make places for mere 'party favorites, and to increase the power and patronage of the Executive. The people may therefore soon espect•to be•saddled with a hoard of igno rant,inexperienced and incompetent officers, to.fulfil .the responsible duties of Notaries Public. Let the people look at this act, and see how well it corresponds with the Locofoco professions of democracy and love for the people. In this case they have rejected a bill to allow the people to elect their own Notaries, thus saying that they are unfit to choose their rulers, and contray to the well known voice expressed by them in the adop tion of the amendments to tho Constitution, they have given the appointment of these officers into the .hands of the Governor to swell his patronage. But this is in character with locofecoism. With democracy upon their lips, they are aristocrats in test, .using every means to concentrate all power in "one man," who uses it as absolutely as any despot of Europe. ..By their fruits shall ye know them." Telegraph. GEN. IltnnisoN.—A highly valued friend, at the close of a letter upon business, gives the following anecdote of Gen. Har rison, which we do not remember to have seen before. " During the seige at Fort Meigs, by Gem Proctor and his Indian allies, a can• non ball struck near Gen. Harrison and his staff officers, and bounded, hissing. over their heads. With the coolness and grace of one who invites a welcome guest, Gen. Harrison remarked "Pass on Gem Proc tor, the countersign is right:" The cele• braced anecdote of Napoleon, when a ball scattered dust on his writing• thereby sav ing sand, is loss indicative of a fearless mind. You seem to be in distress, said the stran ger, my companion. I have faced the enemies of my country, said the host, as he swung his wooden leg round to close the door, and 1 have felt all the pangs and privations of a military life, but all this was nothing compared with what I have suffered to day. Strangee. Pardon mo if I ask the cause; for I will relieve you if it lies in my power. Host. My wife is affFcted with an inter nal disease which renders it dangerous to move her; yet, for a debt which I cannot immediately raise, the man who is agent for nnother declares that if I do not pay it before to-morrow at twelve o'clock, he will seize what little I possess, and turn us all out to the mercy of the elements. 1 can neither raise the sum by that time, nor ob. lain a shelter for my poor wife and children, who must perish to gratify the malice of a man whose heart is a stranger to mercy. • Tho whole family melted into tears as he concluded and even the soldier himself,who faced the cannon's mouth, could not refrain from weeping. Stranger. You have fought the battles of the country? May I be inquisitive of ask. to Host. Ohl yes, I fought under'tho brave Harrison at the Thames, and in other bat tles. I speak of him with pride, for I have seen his sword glittering in the thickest of the fight. I Stranger. Would you know him were you to see him? Host. (gazine ° in his lace) You resemble him very much. Were ho to know my sufferings, lie would instantly assist me. 1 have seen him do several generous deeds. Stranger. Where did you loose your leg? Host. It was shattered by a ball at the glorious battle of Tippeennoe. Stranger. Well, my bravo fellow, make your mind easy; a hair of your head shall not be injured. You now see your General (before you; and as you have fought for me and your country, I will now protect you and your family at the risk of my life. A. sudden blaze of joy seemed to run from heart to heart; the soldier clasped Gen. ,Harrisen in his arms, while the children pressed his hand with affection. We shall be saved from ruin, cried the pale wife. The General found the owner of the piece of laud on which the soldier lived, and never rested until he made the poor fellow a right to it. He also discharged the debt, and a happier family I never be held. ELECTIONS The following table will bo found handy as a matter or reference.

We have seldom read any thing in the same space, that em• braces more genuine republicanism. Philed. inquirer. hollow that the preservation of the Union of the States depends upon the exis tence of our civil and religious liberties; and that the cement which binds it together is not a parcel of words written upon paper or parchment, but the brotherly love and re gard which the citizens of the several States possess for each other. Destroy this, and the beautiful fabric which was created and embellished by our ancestors crumbles into loins. From its disjointed parts no temple of liberty will again be reared. Discord and wars will succeed to peace and harmony—barbarism will again overspread the land; or, what is scarcely better, some kingly tyrant will promulgate the decrees of his will, From the seat where a Washington and a Jefferson dispensed the blessings of a free and equal Government. I believe it, therefore, to be tho duty of a Representative to conciliate, by every pos sible means, the members of our great po. litical family, and always to bear in mind that, as the Union was effected only by a spirit of mutual concrssion and forbear ance, so only can it be preserrotd.

M• 11 YL AN D. --Gov. Gruson has refused to call an extra session of the Legislature of Maryland, in a letter addressed to a committee appointed at a meeting of the citizens of Allegheny county, in reference to the affairs of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal company.

SFEAKLU OF THE SEICATE.-/II the Senate on Wednesday afternoon, the first busineSs that came up was the election of a Speaker, to sorer, until the meeting of the next Legislature, Mr. floor:us, us is usual at tile close of the session, having re signed. Three ballutings were had, the third ballut resulting in the election of Mr Kt NGSB unr. VIItGINIA. Tho Election in Virginia is almost at hand. Much anxiety is felt as to the judgment she will pass upon the Administration of the General Gov ernment. Wedded as she has been, without intermission,to the "powers that.:3c," we need not be astonished if she should go for the spoil's par ty. If she should chance to tell a different tale, it will be clear gain to Harrisonism If it should go as probability predicts, the loss will not be from our ranks. We calmly await the result in the Old Dominion. The stale slander of the Loco foco party aguinbt Gen. Harrison, termed his "Whife slavery vote," has, like all that have boon so industriously prop. agate(' against him, boon so often and amply re futed, that the reiteration of it in the last Compi ler cannot• draw from us a refutation now. W o need but refer our readers to the following article, containing a refraction of the charge, which had been put forth by the Editor of Lie New York Evening Poet, a Loco foci) paper—the Editor having been convinced that he had been instru mental in wronging the veteran patriot:— "A letter of Gen. Harrison's has been lately published, from which it appears, that in our remarks on the subject of his attempt to introduce white - slavery into the Stag" of Oldo,we did him some unintentional injustice. The letter is dated, December 2d 1821, and it appears to have been drawn ibrth by a newspaper attack upon his course in the Legidature in relation to the same law. We are glad to see, that according to Harrison's explanation of the mutter, nei ther he nor the gentlemen who voted with hint were in fiver of selling human beings for civil debts." Hear further the answer of Gen, Harrison himself, to the Editor of the Richthond Whig, upon being interrogated concerning this slander which those who intold and desire to defame are circulating:— "Such an act would havo been REPUG NANT TO MY FEELINGS, and cn DI. RECT CONFLICT WITII'MY OPIN IONS, public and privalo, through the whola courbu ut UI life. NO SUCH PRO POSITION WAS EVER SUBMITTED 'l'o THE LEGISLATURE OF OHlO— pone such would fur a mcmcnt have Luca nuteitaincd —nor would arc), son of her's havn dared to propoen It." We say, once for all,, that it is tho policy of that party to get up defamatory reports against men. Harrison, end keep our prints engaged in nailing them tritho counter, while we are thus directed from our proper business—that of direct ing the pullic mind to the measures which dis tinguish the two men —their opinions of national policy and their fitness to govern. We shall not take it as a matter of course, that wo must notice every notion that strikes the enemy as an availa ble muchinc with which to bomb-shell our impreg nable fort. We ask 'attention to the following resolutions, published by the chairman ofthe State Commit tee, which were adopted by the State Convention, held in February last. This congressional dis trict has not yet obeyed the wish of that conven tion. Our county meeting will present a proper opportunity for the appointment of conferees to perform the duty, who should meet early in May, that a full Electoral Ticket may be placed before the people as soon as possible. Delay cannot profit:— The following resolutions were adopted by the State Convention of the friends of HAMMON and TYLER, which met in Heir. risburg on the 22d day of February, 1840: "Resolved, That whenever the opponents of Marlin Van -Duren, in the eavoreil Con gressional Districts of Pennsylvania shall have nominated on Elector, or Electors, and receeived from such nominees a pledge to vote for WILLIAMHENRY HARRI SON, of Ohio, as President, and JOHN TYLER, of Viruinia, as Vice President, the names of such Elector, or Electors, and the pledge of said Electors be forthwith forwarded to the State Committee. [l3 AU II 0 11:1 " Resolved, That it shall be the duty of the State Committee to publish a correct Electoral Ticket so soon as the same shall have been finally adjusted by the several Districts." As several of the Congressional districts have not yet reported the names of their candidates for Electors, and as it is of muck importance to have the ticket corrected and published with as little delay us possi ble, this mode of calling attention to the subject is adopted. Our Spring Courts will present a convenient opportunity (or attending to it, as well as for taking meas ures to complete the county organization of the party, preparatory to the approach ing election. Communications on the sub ject should be addressed to the subscriber at Lancaster, P. 0. Lancaster county. The undersigned takes pleasure in stat ing, that from every quarter of the State the accounts which reach the Stato Com mittee are of the most encouraging descrip tion. Nothing some wanting to give suc cess to the patriotic case in which we are engaged but a complete organization of the opponents of misrule. A general rally of all who am opposed to the administration of Martin Van Buren, will, beyond a doubt, give the vote of Pennsylvania to Harrison and Tyler. THO. H. BURPOWES, Chairman of State Committee. LANCASTER, April 15, 1540. Pennsylvania. Legislature.+Adjournment The Legislaturo adjourned sine die on Thurs day night, about nine o'clock, and met again, in pursuance of a special message or proclamation, from Governor Porter, convening them on the 17th instant, on the following morning at nine o'clock. The message was communicated to both Houses about the hour of adjournment. In the Senate it caused quite an excitement; and the members of the House, "thunderstruck by the in s.lence of its tone, and almost alarmed by the boldness of its dictation," adjourned immediately after its rending. The Legislature met again at 12 o'clock on Friday, pursuant to the Executive proclamation. In the Ilouse, a resolution to adjourn to meet again on the 12th of May next, was immediately introduced, when after some discussion, Mr. But. Icr offered an amendment to the resolution allow ing the Governor to appropriate at his discretion, three millions of dollars, (authorized to be bor rowed by the resumption bill,) to the completion and repairs of the infernal improvements of tho commonwealth. Thu amendment, however, was negatived; when the question occurring on the original resolution to adjourn to meet on the 12th of May next, it was agreed to. Tho resolution from the House) to adjourn, was concurred in by the Sonata on Friday evening about four o'clock. "The prospect brightens. Every mail almost, brings us the tidings of changes in favor of the honest Republican who now enjoys the first honor in the gift of a free people." Thus ran an article in the Compiler of last week, under the caption of the ProaidentialElec tion. Let us see how bright the prospect is ac cording to the Width of last week. Connecticut, the first in the canvass, to begin with, has just passed her judgment. Orators were imported to that State from neighboring States—the public treasury was called in to assist in sweeping the State—the Hartford Loco foco print announced on the eve of the election, that all would be safe, in his exhortation to duty—and that State was counted most confidently for Van Buren! And what's the result] A TOTAL OVERTHROW of the Van Buren party—the Harrison Governor was elected by anincreased majority of THREE THOUSAND over Niles the Loco foco--the Senate is Hurrisonand the House has near three Harrison members to one Loco Coco! That mail truly caused the prospect to brighten!! An napolis, the seat of Government of Maryland, has just held her charter election. The Van Buren patty at the last election had a majority in that city and elected their officers 7 -now they have lost all—Harrisonism has turned the scale, and they find themselves in the minority. That mail truly caused the prospect to brighten! The city of Cincinnati has just held her charter election. The Loco foco party have had a number of their friends among the successful ones hitherto—but now, says the Republican ()Cleo, week, "the whole regularly imminaled Harrison ticket in EVERT' w.tun •ru E curr, (except one Constable in the ward) prevailed at the election on Monday"— the majority in the city being 1;663. "Eve ry iixertion possible was made by the desiructive3 to reit in their candidates. Our Log Cabin ticket way cc , untertlited, and tickets headed , liarrison ticket,' but containing the names of some et their candidates, were distributed, and some of their candidates declined themselves at the polls Harri ELECTORAL TICKET son men. Notwithstanding all these drawbacks to our success, we have obtained a glorious, un precedented vietory.7 That mail brought news well calculated to brighten the - prospect! In short the elections have commenced•—are being beard from every day, and thus far we know of no one that has not resulted greatly against Mr. Van Buren, and most strongly in favor of Harrison and Tyler! Thus it has been—thus it will be. How bright tho prohpect of Martin Van Buren! We were told not long since by the same paper, that the parade and boasting of the friends of Gen. Harrison would do well to keep up drooping spirits—but the article to which wo have had ref erence is evidence too irrosistablo to be passed over—that the Loco foco party intend to close their ears against the defeats they aro suffering in every section, and Imagine "bright prospects," when all around is gloom and despondency, the presage of the storm that will send their candi date to the shades of retirement.—Who are the boasters? Who are grasping at shadows? P. 8. Since the above was in typo, we have re ceived returns from the New York city election. The returns show a DECREASE in the Loco fo co majority of that city of several hundred votes. We are indebted to the New York Courier and Enquirer for tho following particulars in reference to the election:— Thu polls opeoed in this city at sunrise yesterday morning under the new law, at eighty-foor different places instead of soy. unman ; but as there was no provision for a registry of votes until the fall election, it fiAlolved, of course, that the facilites for the frauds habitually practised by the Loco focos, were increased five-fold. And yet, under all these disadvantages, with hun dreds of illegal - votes polled in every elec tion district in the city; with a naturaliza tion of twenty two hundred foreigners with in the last six days ; and with United States ships anchored on tho shores of our city, and hundreds of sailors and mariners pouring in their votes, the %Vhigs have not only retained their position, but actually reduced the majority of their opponents since the last fall election! Mr. Varian is reelected Mayor by some thing less than fifteen hundred majority; and the Loco-locos have carried the same wards they did last year. On the whole then, the Whigs here, and at a distance, have reason to rejoice in the success of their efforts. To have reduced, as we have, the Loco-loco, majority in 'lug city, under all the disadvantages that we have been compelled to contend against ; with eighty-four instead of seventeen polls, at which to crowd in their illegal votes; with the Marine Court in full operation, munufacturing Loco-foco voters to order, and with the whole band of Custom House officers, and hundreds of United States sai lors and marines, to sustain the desperate fortunes of a reckless and sinking adminis. tration—the Whigs of this city have ac complished oven more than wo had any well founded reason to anticipate. They have demonstrated beyond all future cavil, that the State of New York, under any contingency, will give her vote for Harri son and Reform; and that even this city,, when the purity of the ballot box is secu red by a registry of voters will give to tie Whig ticket in November next, a trium pliant majority. On this auspicious result, we cordially odtpgratulate our Whig friends throughout the United States. This is the strong hold of the administration. Here they could and did bring to bear upon us, all their. in. fluence and all their power. The army of Custom house officers alone were taxed seventeen thousand three hundred dollars. Twenty-two hundred foreigners; were made citizens to order, to secure Loco.foce mis. rule ; and «hole gangs of illegal voters pas sed from poll to poll, recording against us the votes purchased by a corrupt and un principled government. From so unequal a contest, we had every thing to apprehend, and our opponents every thing.to hope.— They but freely on five thousand majority, and behold, it is less than it was last fall! They confidentially predicted a majority which wou'd warrant them in claiming the State next autumn ; and alas for Locofoco. ism ! they have been most wofully disap. poicted. Again we say, let the Whigs re joice in this auspicious result, as it clearly an'l empha'ically. proclaims, that the Stale of New York will give Harrison and Tyler a clear majority of more than fifteen thou sand in November next. VICTOR' }"! PICTOIIF!!! RHODE ISLAND.—The Harrison boys have car. ried this State by a largo majority of nearly 1400! Mr. Van Buren and his friends will not forget that this State gave him her vote at the last elec tion. ST. Lours .—The charter election for Mayor and aldermen, was hold in St. Louis on the 6th inst. The regular Whig candidate for Mayor was elected, and of the four wards, the Whigs carried three. This is tight under the nose of Thomas H. Benton ! AUGUSTA, Geo.:—The election for mayor and Alderman in this city took place on the 13th inst. A staunch Whig tuns elected mayor; and out of twelve councilmen, nine Whigs have been elec• ted. The friends of Harrison and Reform in Georgia entertain strong hopes that the State will ultimately go for Harrison and Tyler. New OILLEA:IB.—On the 6th inst, the charter election was hold in New Orleani. The Whigs have elected their mayor by near 200 majority and also a majority of their alderman. Tho city last year gave a Loco foco majority ! Harrison victories crotyd so thick upon us, that wo can scarcely keep pace with them. Will the Compiler come to our relief, and give its read ers only a few of the Whig victories, that . are dai ly occurring? Wonder if the Compiler men have received the returns of the Connecticut election? If not, we will cheerfully furnish. ou with them, gentlemen. COLORED EIIIGRANTS.-TllO brig Por poise sailed from this port yesterday, for British Guano, having on board, seventy colored emigrants.

Journal states that 820 persons in that village signed the temperance pledge on the nth inst. ENCILISIt HARVEPT.-A letter from Lon. don dated March 12, 1940 says:—The weather has bean very lavorablo for the last month, and tho prospect of a good vest in this country is so far favorable, and will, I think, cause losses on shipments from America at the last quotations for flour at.d freights. GEN. HARRISON-HIS GROWING POP ULARITY---THE CONFIDENTIAL COM- MITTEE Late accounts from Cincinnati state, that since the Nomination of Gen. Harrison it . has required about one third of his income to pay the postage on the letters and news papers sent him. There are about 1,600 newspapers published in the U. States and to be liberal with the Loco Focos we will allOw thorn ono half. This will leave 600 for the Whigs, and of course every Whig editor sends Gen. Harrisoy his paper. Gen. Harrison therefore has 800 papers every week to read (supposing these papers all to be published weekly but many of them are published daily.) Now if we allow him Sunday to go to Church then ho hits 800 papers to read durinff ' six days of the week. This is equal to 133 papers to be read ev ery day. Now we appeal to gio common sense of every man whether Gin. Harrison would not be kept busy reading newspapers if he would do nothing else. A few of his friends therefore, have kindly offered to render him some assistance in order to re lieve him of the great amount of labor which a due attention to his friends requires. They have resolved themselves into a com mittee, not to read newspapers for him, but to answer, under his sanction, some of the numerpms letters sent to him from all parts of the IT. States. The number of commu nications he receives are immense. His friends wish to consult with him. Many of the Loco focos think about turning and wish to hear directly from himself..what his principles and views are. Then again, there area vast number .of persons who deem the question as good as settled that Harrison will be elected and. therefore they must write to the General-too in 'order to make their friendship known thinking that kiwi!' not; do them any harm.. Politeness re. quires that Gen. Harrison, should attend to the communications of his friends. And when .we consider the many engagements which occupy his time, it becomes apparent that his correspondents cannot be duly at. tetuk.ki if he has to do all his own writing. The Van Burennes attempt to sneer at the idea of Gen. Harrison having three men engaged to assist him. We should consider the fact as being a very strong:ev idence of his growing popularity. When such a multitude of all descriptions of per sons are disposed to make friends with the General it is a certain index to the enthu• siastic feeling in his favor which pervades the country. We should not be surprised if, before the election, it should be found highly necessary to add several additional names to the committee. We wont& trere sayn word relative to Postage; Every individual who writes to General Harrison ought to feel himself bound to. pay the postage—upon the prin ciple that he is writing upon his own busi ness; because the election of Gen. Harrison would promote the common good and what ever promotes the common good, as it af fects himself, is a part of his business.— Old Guard. DnrADFUL SIIIPWRECK.—On the 6th inst. on the Connecticut river, Rhode Island bearing east within nine days sale of Rhode Island election, naving (or a long time been on "short allowance (ye provisions and water, the hertnaphodite brig Loco Foco, Captain John N.

TUE LAW OF NEWSPAPHREL—We learn from the Boston Courier, that Judge Wil liams, in a late case before the Common Pleas, laid the law in relation to a question interesting to editors of newspapers, as fol lows: I. Where a subscriber to a newspaper orders it to be discontinued, and it contin. ues to be loft at his residence, the presump• (ion is, in the absence of any evidence to the contrary, that it is left by the subseri ber's orders, and upon a promise to pay for it. 2. If p. newspaper is left from day to day for a person at his place of business, with his knowledge and consent, though with. out his express consent, and if he has ran son to believe that it is so left under the be lief, though a mistaken one, that he is a subscriber, and under the expectation that be is to pay for it, in that case he will bo bound to pay for it, unless he gives a notice to discontinue it. iIaILTLVORE PRICES CURREXT. 14-om the Baltimore Patriot of Saturday last rt.ouu.—To-day a sale of 1200 bbls. was made at $5,06 : 1; and a sale of 500 bbls. at $5,- 12i: .
