FOR CANAL COMMISSIONER.
JAMES M. POW ER,
or Metiers county.
Presidency and Vice Presidency.
We see indications in various quarters
of a desire on the part of the Whig party
to bring out Gen. Wixfield Scott for
the next Presidency, and know of no man
in the nation to whom we would give a
more ready and cordial support. Finn
in principle, moderate as a politician, and
patriotic in sentiment and in action, he is
precisely, the man for the Whigs, for the
crisis, and for the country.
1 ar
It might perhaps be premature for the
Whi" to designate their candidate thus
early, but there can be no impropriety in
discussing the merits and availability of
men, and to notice the indications of pub
lic sentiment in favor of one or another
among those who stand most prominent.
With regard to the Vice Presidency
but little has been said as yet. Nor is it
our intention to agitate that question at
this time; but it may not be out of place
to mention in connexion with what we
have said above, that the Hon. Andrew
Stewart is spoken of by some of our
best men as a suitable person for the sec
ond office in the nition. He is every
where known as a plain, sound, practical
man, and would in the opinion of many
not only be a strong candidate, but make
a most excellent presiding officer when
elected.
The Ensuing Ejection.
A list of officers to be voted lor by the
people of Somerset County at the ensu
ing ejection.
One person for Canal Commissioner.
One person for Congress.
One person for Assembly.
One person for Sheriff.
One person for Coroner.
One person for Commissioner.
One person for Auditor.
Three persons for Directors of the
Poor.
Pay of Seamen.
An eastern paper says there is at pres
ent a great scarcity of seamen, and that if
our whole naval force is to be fitted out,
the Government will have to increase the
inducements to enlist. At present no
bounty is odered, and but three months'
pay given to the men in advance. The
latter, we believe, is S12 per month, and
amounts to the enormous sum of $36,
which in ninety-nine cases out of a hun
dred goes to pay up old scores with
Jack's last landlord. We think justice
demands that the pay of members of Con
gress and of seamen and soldiers should be
a little more equalized than it is at pres
ent. Invasion oT !tIcxico.
A Washington correspondent of the
New York Journal of Commerce, writes
as follows:
An invasion (of Mexico) from differ
ent points at the same time, the forces all
aiming at the City of Mexico, has been
talked of. A distinguished officer of the
array has, it is said, given il as his opin
ion that a force of a hundred thousand
men will be necessary for the object.
The same writer savs: The American
squadron, under Com. Stockton, have or
ders to take possession of St. Francisco
and Monterey, and lo hold those places
against all opposition.
The War Xeivs.
We ayain occupy a large portion of our
paper with intelligence from the seat of
war, which will be read with interest.
rVhtin on the Rio Grande, we presume,
will soon be at an end. Much, however,
may have to be done in other quarters
before the war is over.
From Vera Cruz.
The Locomotor mentions a report
which was current in Vera Cruz on the
Cth of May, that the American fleet were
to attack the Castle of Ulua, and adds that
the greatest vigilance and activity prevail
ed among the garrison of the city and the
castle.
Reward of Merit.
On Tuesday of last week the President
nominated Gen. Taylor for the brevet
rank of Major General, which nomina
tion was immediately confirmed by the
Senate. Gen. Ta'yor had previously
held the ccir.x'.rr'cr. cf a Bri?rdler.
Jesclt Chaplains.
It is said the President has appointed
as ehaplains in the army, Father John Mc
Elroy, of Frederick, Maryland, and Rev.
Mr. Rue, of Georgetown College two
of the most distinguished Jesuits in the
United States, and that Bishop Hughes
has been tendered a similar appointment.
The National Fair.
From what we can learn, the recent
exhibition at Washington was the great,
est alTair of the kind that ever came off,
either in our own country or in Europe. An
article on the subject, copied from the Na
tional Intelligencer, will be found on first
TVarirltSi the Indians.
The New Orleans papers contain re"
ports that the Cherokee 'Indians on the
I frontier of Texas had assumed a warlike
attitude and were about rising in arms
against the United States.
Allegheny County.
The Whigs and Antimasons of Alle
gheny have put in nomination Moses
i Hampton, Esq., for Congress, and A.
Ililands, T. J. Bigham, D. McCurdy and
J. S. Wilson for Assembly.
The Locusts.
The locusts have made their appear-
j ance in great numbers west of the moun
tains. The country between the Alleghe
ny and Laurel Hill summits is never visi
ted by them. Why not?
CS7""The chairman of the Post office
Committee in the Senate stated on Tues
day, that no change was contemplated in
the present rates of postage.
Louisiana.
The Legislature of Louisiana adjourn
ed last week until the second Monday in
January, so as to avoid the oppressive
ness of a summer session.
Major General Scott.
The people will learn with no Iitde as
tonishment and indignation, that an at
tempt is now being made at Washington,
to deprive that brave and gallant defender
of his country in the time of peril, Gex.
Scott, of the position he won by volor,
and holds by rank, at the head of the ar
my. The enmity of the Administration
to this noble, devoted Patriot, has long
been known and observed; and the peo
ple only wait for a full and complete de
velopement of the plan long since concoc
ted in the secret councils of iniquity, and
now about to be consu mated, to arise and
drive treason and the conspirators from
the Capitol. They are waiting anxious
ly for the political guillotine to fall, that
vengeance may be dealt upon the worse
than Tories who have dared to aim a
dagar at the heart or laurels of the scar-
CO
worn hero of Niagara. In a few days
we hope to be able to give a full account
of the dark scheme of persecution that
has been for some time in operation at
Washington, against this beloved and de
voted friend of our country. Pa. Tel.
Lewder at the Rio Grande. A let
ter from Charleston fives the following
accouut of the causes which led to the
capture of Lieut. Deas :
"It appears that Lieut. Deas was offi
cer of the da-, and it was customary for
the American band to perform the nation
al airs, when the Star Spangled Banner
was lowered in the evening. This con
cert of sweet sounds attracted the atten
tion of the Mexicans on the opposite side,
and crowds assembled on the banks of
the river to listen to the strains of music,
among them were many ladies. Lieut.
Deas became enamored with a beauty,
and signs and tokens of affection pass
ed between them; on the same evening
like another Lcander, he plunged into the
Mexican Hellespont after his hero, and
no sooner had he landed on the other
side than he was taken as a prisoner.
Love and not valor or friendship,
prompted him to swim across the river.'
How puny and contemptible do politi
cal tricksters appear, when contrasted
with such men as Major Ringgold! how
heartless the demagogue who would un
necessarily involve his country in war,
in which brave hearts must bleed, and the
truly patriotic men become victims.
Where are the reckless politicians of
Congress who would war for "the'
whole of Oregon or more;" and who
prate about handling England as a "help
less infant?" Are they now seen, sword
in hand, assisting to repel an inferior foe
from our soil, and courting honor at the
cannon's mouth? No they brag, but
do not perform: they kindle the flame,
and thrust others forward to extinguish
iu they talk bravely of deeds of arms, but
arc careful to keep out of the way of
harm to themselves: they raise the whirl
wind, but avoid the storm. We would
direct such men to the tomb of Major
Ringgold, to learn a lesson of patriotism
and duly. Lan. Ex.
The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Patriot tells the following:
"I learn that Mr. Pakenham, the
British Minuter, has purchased the mag
nificent suit of chamber furniture exhibit
ed at the Fair, and valued at 8,000 ! Some
say he intends presenting it to his Sover
eign Queen Victoria, as a sample of what
the Yankee mechanics can do. 0;hers
say the Minister; who is a single man,'
intends being single no longer. At alii
events, the ladies at the Fair insist upon
i'. iit Mr. Pakenham must ccw rnsrrv."
Iron S team Ship s.
Twelve additional Iron steam "ships
are to be built by our Government, to be
employed, no doubt in the Mexican war.
A portion of these ships, at least, Pitts
burgh may fairly claim the building of.
The frigate Allegheny, now preparing for
launching, will float a proud monument,
if we may be allowed so to speak, of
Pittsburgh materials and Pittsburgh work
men; and this turn out from Mr. Romlin
son's ship yard will fairly challenge
comparison with any similar work of the
kind in the world. This yard will am
ply repay the time and trouble of a pro
longed visit, by the view of 'its various,
costly and multiplied machinery, adapted
expressly to Iron ship building. Pitts.
Arner.
APPOINTMENTS BY THE PRESI
DENT.
By and with the advice and consent of
the Se7iale.
Seth Bartox, of Louisiana, to be
Solicitor of the Treasury, vice Charles
B. Penrose, removed.
Georoe W. Sxeed, to be postmaster
at Florence, Alabama, vice Joshua D.
Coffee, removed.
During the battles of the 8th and 9th,
Gen. Taylor headed his troops in the
most cool and gallant manner. His es
cape from hurt seems almost a miracle.
He has won the hearts of his soldiers by
his willingness to share with them the
most imminent perils. His motto is, "I
wish no man to go where I am not wil
ling to lead." He has been dubbed
" Old Rough and Ready ."Pic.
