SOMERSET HERALD SOJ1KU6ET, P A., TUESDAY, MARCH 2, 1847. FOR GOVERN OH: HON. JAMES COOPER, (Su'jt t'' i,:e decision vf the State Convention.) "THE DISTRESS IN IRELAND. The prevailing distress in Ireland has railed forth the sympathies of the Ameri can people, and in a number of places public meetings have been held end mea sures adopted to send bread-stuffs to the psffrrers with nil possible expedition. Hundreds of the Irish, especially of the poorer classes, have already periehed for Mailt of proper nourishment, and thou sands more are threatened with a similar fate. The distress has reached even ma ny of the small land-holders, whose stock of provisions has been exhausted, and who, like their poorer neighbors, are now dependent upon charity for the means of CnV,sistenec. For a more full account of the prevailing distress the reader is refer- red to the proceedings of a public meeting j ,,e waj tf.erc would have been no inva rceenllv held in Philadelphia, which will j sion. The evidence is clear. The fact be found on the first page of this paper. We have called the attention of our rea der to this subject for the purpose of tuggesting; t0 lncm ProPrictr f ta' jng sonic action upon it in our county. Those who are blessed with abundance, 'could surely a fiord to contribute some thing toward alleviating the sufferings of a starving people. FATAL ACCIDENT. On Wednesday last, a Mr. Mitchell, of Westmoreland county, lost his life, on the turnpike road between Herlin and Cumberland, in the vicinity of Craw ford's tavern, in the following manner: lie was driving his team, and without stoT'iin'r endeavored to mount the saddle if O horse: when he put the left foot into the stirrup the saddle turned, the right foot at the same time slipping, he was thrown on the ground, and before he could reco ver himself was run over by the wagon, killing him on the spot. Truly "in the midst of life we are in death." THE STATE INTEREST. The State Interest due on the 1st of February was not all paid, there having been a deficit in the Treasury of two hun dred thousand dollars, notwithstanding Mr. Snowdcn, the late Treasurer, had held out the idea that the means of the Treasury would be sufficient for the pay ment of the whole. "AID AND COMFORT." The U. S. Senate has expelled the edi tor cf the Government paper from the privileges of its chamber, and Messrs. Calhoun and Wcscott, both Democratic members, have made speeches against the President's course of conduct in re gard to Mexico. fcCThc Maryland Statesman, 2n Ad ministration paper in Baltimore, says the three senior officers of our Army are warring against their own government. This slander against Scott and Taylor and Worth, we presume is all the eves of the Administration. right in PRINTERS HILLS. JlppU Office, Post Office Deparl mrnt, December 29, 181G.

Shunk are in treaty for his sale to "the Government," in order to settle their lit tle "family difficulties." It is said that the Governor is to withdraw his name for re-nomination, and receive a Foreign mis sion or some ether good place; and a new man, a second James K. Polk, taken up iu his stead! We shall soon sec whether each a move is to be made, and if made, 1 what it will profit the bargainers and sel lers. Lancaster Tribune. In the march of Major General Patter son from Matamorns to Victoria, over a route almost devoid of water, and a dis tance of 230 miles, not a man was on the sick list or disabled upon the arrival at Victoria. This is a fact worthy of note, and reflects great credit upon the commanding General. FROM NEW - YORK i. DRU&BrrE siiiewrixk. iytvtnlyjive Passenger mid Eigh teen Sailors Lost. New York, Feb. 22, 9 P. M. It is reported here that the brig Isabel- la, from Liverpool, bound to New York, was wrecked this morning at Barnegat, ; ih1 75 passecrrs and 18 sailors lost. j Ilia also rumored that there are some ''ark deeds coi-njTicd with the death of (,i;t Rathhorie; which when developed, put ad ifl-rent character ou the ac-: fju-.-.s receded, - . j WHIG PREDICTIONS FUL FILLED. : In a debate in the U. S. Senate recent ly, Mr. Tcrxey, a locofoco Senator from Tennessee, in speaking of the present war with Mexico, made the following ac knowledgment: According to his (Mr. T.'s) judgment, the annexation of Texas produced the war. The Senator from Ohio was cor rect. After that act war was inevitable. It was, as that Senator said, predicted by the Whigs. He believed that his (Mr. T.'s) own party had denied that, and said there would be no war; but war had come true enough, and the Senator from South Carolina had done more to bring it about than any other man hi the United States, for he had effected the annexation. Mr. Calhoun replied to Mr. Turner, and here is part of what he said: The immediate cause of the war, if he desires to know, was the marching of our forces from the frontier, A Senator: Cor pus Christi from Corpus Christi to the banks of the Del Norte. To repel that on the part of Mexico, is what the Presi dent calls an invasion, assuming that the Rio del Norte was the boundary. Hut can that be justly charged to annexation? - "c. " ? carf u 10 annexation, is, and cannot be denied, mat General Arista communicated to General Taylor, either by letter or a" trusty agent, that if the American troops would remain where they were, (at Corpus Christi,) the Mex ican troops would remain where they were, on the west side of the Rio del Norte. That both might send out detach ments to the Salt Colorado, (a stream about midway between the two places,) for the purpose of guarding the frontier 1 and preventing smuggling, and that there would be no conflict between them. If I am not mistaken, this was communicated to the Department, and a call upon it would bring it forth, if it should be re quired. I think something to the same effect was recently published in the South ern papers. X Senator: Yes! So, then, we have clear evidence that the war was made by the order to march to the Del Norte. That the President believed that to be the boundAry I do not question. Hut the great question comes up, Has the Executive the right to determine what our boundary is? Whca wc have a dis puted boundary question and we have liad many does it belong to the Execu tive or to Congress to determine it! There arc two ways to do it. One is by negotiation and treaty, to be performed by the Executive and this body, in case the two nations agree to negotiate. The oth er is, if the party disputes the boundary and will not come to terms, for Congress to declare where the boundary is, and maintain it, if need be, at the hazard of war. How long did the boundary of Maine remain unsettled? From the ac knowledgment of independence, in 1783, down to the time that the Senator from Massachusetts closed it by a treaty. But did any of the Presidents ever think of marching troops upon the line? The British held Detroit and Fort Stanwix alter the treaty of peace until Jay's treaty in 1781. Did General Washington un dertake to establish the boundary by mar ching troops to the St. Lawrence, which was our boundary? If war, then, has followed annexation, it is not to be traced to one Irom koutli Uaroiina, but to one from Tennessee. As to the war, I have deplored it. I have deplored it for its consequences. I have deplored it for the manner of bring ing it on. As to my views in reference to the war, I have kept silent; assailed here and throughout the country, my friends urged me to come out and explain at the last session. I intended to remain silent until I saw a suitable opportunity for ex planation. And here let mc say what just now comes to my mind. It may be asked, thinking as i do as to the causes of the war, why I did not take some step to arrest the march of Gen. Taylor? In the first place, I never heard that the inarch was ordered until a long time after the order was given. The Senator from Delaware (Mr. J. M. Clayton) gave mc the first intimation that the order had been j issued. I replied that it was impossible, j and could not believe it until the fact was certainly ascertained. After Gen. Tay lor had actually commenced his march, 1 said to several of my friends he ought to be stopped, it will bring on war. 1 said also, if my memory serves me, the same tiling to the Senator from Delaware, from whom I first derived my information. (The Senator assented.) I said to him and others that the Oregon and Mexican questions arc intimately connected; that a war with England, in reference to Ore gon, would certainly involve in its conse quences a war with Mexico; and that a war with Mexico might also involve a wai about Oregon, or at all events prevent the settlement of our difficulties with England in reference to it. That, thus viewing it, Gen. Taylor, in my opinion, ought to be stopped; and that I would lay a resolution on the table calling for the or der under which he marched, and would follow it up by a resolution to arrest his march, were I not prevented by the posi tion which I occupied. Of the two, I considered it more important to avoid a war with- England about Oregon tlum a war with' Mexico, important as ' t thought it was to avoid that. Tliat it was impor tant I should maintain the kindest and most friendly relations 'with the Presi dent, in order that 1 should have some weight in bringing the Oregon question to an amicable settlement; and that, if I were to move in reference to the order given to Gen. Taylor, it would, I feared, place me in hostile relations to the Executive, and dostroy any weight I might have with on ' the Oregon question. This, with the hope that the Oregon question might be' settled before an actual conflict between ' the forces under Gen. Taylor and those under Arista, prevented me from acting. Otherwise, I would certainly have taken a move to arrest the march, and thereby arrest the war. I have much more to say in reference to the cause of the., war, which I must postpone until some suita ble occasion. I could state some facts in ' relation to Oregon, but I am not at liberty, ! and therefore forbear. I thank the Seaatc for the kindness with which it has now heard me. A VALIANT CAPTAIN. The following is the conclusion of a speech in the House at - Harrisburgh by Mr. Fox of Dauphin on the resolutions ro'-i'iio i n fV tiriCT inl In (inewpr in fr Hassan of Cambria who had disturbed the propriety of "the House by the broad est kind of abuse on some of the most distinguished Americans in some of the broadest kind of brogue. "A word more Mr. Speaker, in regard to my roley-boley friend from Cambria, and I have done. The valiant and re doubtable second edition of Col. Pluck, has indulged himself in denouncing the Whigs and their principles, thus: "From the earliest period of the Amiri can Revolution, doun to the prisint time, the Whigs have always been Tories. There prcnciples are idencified wid the black cochade Federalists, and they have never failed to exult in the victories of our iniinies. fn the County of Cambria a volunteer company composing 104 men, started for Mixeco, and thar' were only sexteen whegs in it." I ask, sir, why is not the "representa tive of the frosty sons of thunder" him self, now marching towards tlse battle field? I can easily imagine from the ginger-pop patriotism of the gentleman, that he could not enter a company as a nri- vate soldier, but I would hare supposed from his enlarged proportions, and com prehensive love of country, that he woulo! tender himself to the Governor of the Commonwealth, as a whole company, of ficers, privates and all, of which he was Captain No. 1. of Company No. 2!! I fancy I can now see the gentleman standing on the summit of some mighty mountain in Cambria, robed cap apie in the soldiers garb, swelling with patriotic indignation at the boldness of Mexican braggadocio, his face, rosy as a summer's pepper, and suffused with a compound of tears and other mucilagious liquids, bid ding a rapid adieu to the cliffs and quagp mires, the toads, frogs and snakes, of his own, his darling Cambria. Behold him tearing himself from the scenes of his childhood, and marching with hurried steps to the Geld of slaughter. Company No. 2, commanded by Captain No. 1., is now on the plains of Mexico "his heart is in the fray and eager for the fight." The music ef the fife and drum are lost in the hoarse thunder of the cannon's roar the beams of Heaven are partially obscured by the dust and smoke of bat tle, when the gallant Captain No. 1. of company No. 2. is seen emerging from the shantee or chapparal. Around his head he wears a wreath of shamrock, over his back is spanned a coat of scar let, significant of his murderous inten tions, his breeches woven to the leg as though the flesh had been melted and run into tl em, 011 cither shoulder floats a mackerel, in his left hand he carries a brick-bat, and in his right flourishes the mighty shillclah. Thus armed and equipped, straddled upon a mule, gorgeously caparisoned, he enters the arena and looks fiercely forth for the mighty Santa Anna . himself. "Heeds up, Captain No. 1, attintion com pany No. 2, count on in sections of four, and march at whaling distances for sex teen. Behould that lubberly spalpeen Santa Anna, and follow your Gincral," and darting for his rival, like a true knight of the olden time, he strikes the shield of the mighty chief. The astonished followers of the Mexican General recoil at the fearless courage of the stranger- soldier. "Git out of my rood, Misther Santa Anna, or I'll be the dith of ye," shouts Captain No. 1, of Company No. 2. "Sir, I'm the decindint of Teddy O' Toole, I was born in the town of Limme rick, in the county of Tippcrary, I am the ripresintatev' from Cambria county, end the right arm of the Dimocretic par ty in Pennsylvania. I've thravelled a thousand miles to see you, and by the un decayed shens of St. Path rick and the strawberry lips of Kate Killarncy, but I'll be the dith of ye," and suiting the ac tion to the word, he rushed headlong at gainst his antagonist. It was a most fearful and mighty attack. It combined the enthusiastic ensrgy of Fallstaff, the serene judgment of Quixottc and the skill and sirategy of an animated, living, blood and bones Jack of Clubs. Sir, it was irresistible, it staggered the plumed war rior of the Sou t!i, and both riders fell to the earth. It was a dreadful and most intensely interesting moment. The pal frey of the gentleman was seen darting across the plain, his dailing shillelah was flving through the air like the stick of a rocket, and last, though not least, the un mentionables of the gallant, though un fortunate Captain No. 1, of company No. 2, were rent asunder, and like Cardinal Woolscy, he was left "naked to his ene mies." Sir, misfortune commands our pity and respect, and wc here'ilrop !'the curtain', 'mentioning, however, J:))at the test accounts from " the warrepresent the Captain as being totally bewildered, and running to and fro, like the affrighted sons of Jerusalem, and exclaiming in imi tation of the Duke of York, at the battle of Bosworth, "a horse a horse, my lau rels, my military laurels for a horse, but if you've got no horse, I'll swap 'em for my Jack-Ass.

Wrecking of a transport with troops great battle at chihuahua be tween our troops amd mexicans Colonel Price victorious Cap ture of Chihuahua. Washington, Feb. 24th, 10, P. M. The Southern Mail is in, bringing the mail regularly due. By an arrival at N. Orleans we have some exciting news from Mexico. The dates from Tampico are down to the Gth February. j 0rIeana " four compa. nies of Louisiana Volunteers, on board, was off the bar at Tampico on the 28th ult., on her voyage, as supposed to Vera C, ruz, and when somewhat South of Tam pico, was wrecked in a gale. She was driven ashore, bu the troops were all got in safely. J he crew were also saved. They were distiiute of clothing, arms or provisions, and soon after, the wreck was captured by a force of eight hundred Mex icans. Gen. Scott, and staff, were still at Bra zos Santiago. The health of the soldiers at Tampico was good, excellenr in fact. In the Hos pitals, however, a malignant fever had broken out and was causing considerable mortality. It was reported, and generally believed, at Tampico, that Col. Price with the force under his command, had come in collision with a large body of Mexican soldiers at Chihuahua, and that a very se vere battle had been the result. The loss on both sides was said to be great. Col. Price was finally victorious, and defeated the Mexicans most signally, al though they outnumbered him more than two to one. lie took possession of the town, driv ing the enemy's troops out of i Gen. Patterson had received a batch of despatches for our Government, which Com. Connor supposed was from the Mexican Government, and related to a peace between the two countries.

Dear Sir: It is said by Phvsiemi?, and is by the mass of man kind believed, lint Consumption rar.not be cured that wben oiscs it bceomps seated in the human system, nothing can eradicate or stay its progress, but that it will continue the work of destruction un til its victim sinks into the grave. However true this mav be in theory, I am disposed to doubt it in fct; indeed, my own experience, and a desire to bene fit others, compels me to pronounce the assertion untrue. You will p.obiblv reddled, rtr, that in the beginning uf 1810 I wrote to you stating that I had the Consumption, nnd thai it was fast hurrying me to the grave. I did no: then, nor do 1 now dnbt. every symptom was too painfully visible. My Phy sicians considered nie incurahle, but the advice which I asked of you was given, and I am happy to say that by using a few bottles of your incomparable medi cine the Expectorant, I was restored, and never in my life have I enjayed better or more uninterrupted health than since that lime. If you should see me now, you would not imagine by my appear ance that I had ever been sick, much less that I had had the Consumption, but that 1 am still living, I ascribe wholly and entirely to your Expectorant.
