PEARSON, Chairman. To the Public. I shall be absent for some weeks, du ring which the business of the office will te attended to by enc of my sons. Should the paper lack in interest du ring my absence, its readers will, I trust, require no further apology. j. row. 2T"To the exclusion of almost every thing else, our paper is this week taken vp with a full account of the triumphs of our arms in Mexico under Gens. Scott and Taylor. Our readers we presume will thank us for this. The interest felt in the success of cur gallant little army enlists public attention to such an extent, that little else is talked or thought of. Tfe have neither time, room, nor inclina tion to make any comments at present. Ncr are they necessary. The simple statement of the facts as we have given them is a sufficient eulogy upon the con duct of the soldiery. Besides; our own feelings in common with these of the whole country, are those ef unmingled pride and exultation pride for the honor our army has done to itself and the coun try exultation at the results. These feelings are subdued only, by our regrets for the brave who have fallen, and for the aching voids which have been left in thou sands of hearts and hemes. For the present, then, we content our f elves by inviting the attention of our rea ders to the full accounts which will be found in our column. THE CALL FOR A COUNTY ' MEETING. We invite attention to the call for a County Meeting. Both parties have then candidates for State officers in the field, and we have no doubt that the Locos are actively, though as yet privately, engaged in organizing their forces for the cam paign. They must net be permitted to steal a march upon us. On the contrary, the Whigs owe it to the cause in which they are engaged to prepare for the con test, so as to be ready lo meet the enemy in his first onset. To this end organiza tion is indispensable. We expect, there fore, to see a large meeting of the Whigs of this county on the day appointed by the County Committee. FRESH SHAD. Wc were favored some days since, by our friend "Fuosty," of the "Lightning Line" between ' Cumberland . and this place, with a delicious fresh shad, taken in the Chesapeake, a distance of 300 miles from here! Though wc have nei ther Railroad nor Telegraph by which to get our eatables and news, our aforemen tioned friend brings us both by means of horse-flesh locomotion nearly as quick as others convey them by steam and clectri citv. We regret to learn by the Grecns- l. r ' p.icrs, that two members of the WcE-tttturehind Guards have died since the arrivul of the troops at Vera Cruz. Thtir namer re John Kerr, and Thomas Spears. Mr. Kerr was an attorney at the WestaortUud iUr. Mr. Spears was from Anuftroe. county. They died of ";.: rv, WHIG VICTORIES. These come so thick and fast upon us, that we can hardly keep up the record. What with those of our army abroad, and our friends at home, we can-do little more than name them. In Connecticut the Whigs hare made a clean sweep. The State' is completely revolutionized. The results of the late election arc, a Whig Governor and Lieut. Governor, a Whig Senate, a Whig House, and an entire Whig Delegation to Congress (except Nilea who holds over.) These are all gains from last year. The majorities are large. In Rhode Island, he Law and order (Whig) party are completely in the as cendant. They have elected their Go vernor and a majority in both branches of the Legislature. Locofocoism and Dorr ism are down together. ' , Li the city of New Ycsk the Whig candidate for Mayor has been elected by a large majority of 1500 or 1800. The select and common councils are also Wliicr- This is the lirst time for several Years. In Alranv Mr. Parrnelee,' Whig, is re elected by a largely increased majority about 2400. In Brooklyn the result is the same, Whig out and out. Cincinnati has gone and done like wise. The Whigs have elected their Mayor by a majority of 800 to 1000; the City Marshall and councils by still larger majorities. Verily the good cause prospers! ADVANCE OF GEN. SCOTT UPON THE CITY OF MEXICO. Late advices stats that 'Gen. Scott hs commenced his advance upon the capital The taking of Vera Cruz opens a direct passage to the city of Mexico. The dis tance is about 220 miles over an excellent road. There are several' points upon it susceptible of defence, but in the present distracted state of both Government and Army, it is scarcely probable that any de term insd cr effective resistance will be of fered. What effect all this may have upon the negotiations for peace, remains lo be seen. gC7Atteniion is invited to the adver tisement of F. II. Stahl Jul another col umn.

Torch Light Procession, &c, By the mail on Monday evening the 12th inst., the glorious news of the sur render of Vera Cruz and the Castle of Sr.n Juan d'Ulua was ofncially confirmed, which so aroused and fired the patriotic feelings ol our citizens, that it was imme diately determined to celebrate the glori ous achievement by an illumination of our town. In a few minutes an informal meeting was luld at the office of Col. J. R. Edie, J. F. Cox, Esq., in the Chair, Col Edie, acting as Secretary a committee consisting of Col's A. J. Ogle and J R Edie, F M Kimmel, J Neff, and G Lint, Esqs. were appointed to procure pine knots and make other necessary pre parations for a torch light procession, il lumination &c. A general meeting of the citizens was ordered to be called at 1 o' clock P. M. of next day, after which the meeting adjourned. Tuesday 13th inst., at the time appoin ted, in pursuance of notice given by post bills, almost the entire male population of the town rushed to the Court House, where the following officers were appoin ted. The meeting was organized by nom inating J. F. COX, Esq. President, and F. Weimer, Arm. Yolnkin, Jacob Mier, Jacob Cunningham, G.--Lint, John Chorpenning, Valentine Hocpt, John Neff and Geo. Mowry, Esqs., Vice Presidents. D. Weyand, E, Scull, J. F. Loy and Curtis Kooser,Esqs., Secretaries. Com nut lie on liesolulions. Sam'l W. Pearson, A. J. Ogle, Daniel Weyand, Isaac Hngus, J. R. Edie, S. Gebhart and Jos, Cummins. Committee of Arrangements. F. M. Kimmel, Geo. Chorpenning, Jr. C. F. Mitchel, G. Lint and Dr. J. Mc Creery. The object of the meeting was stated by the President, in a brief, but eloquent and patriotic speech. Capt. S. W. Pearson, offered the fol lowing resolutions which , were unani mously adopted. Resolved, That a committee of. seven be appointed to prepare resolutions ex pressing the sentiments of the meeting up on the recent brilliant victories of the A merican arms, and report the same, lo an adjourned meeting at 8 o'clock this even- ing Resolved, That the citizens of Somer set Bororgh be requested lo illuminate their respective houses this evening at 7 o'clock to continue for one hour, and to join in a torch light procession from the Court House at the adjournment of the meeting above appointed. The meeting was further briefly ad dressed iu a few spirit stirring remarks by Messrs, Ogle, Weyand' and Pearson, after which it adjourned to meet at 8 o' clock. At 7a o clock the bells announced the for th illumination, when in a mo- ment as if by magic, the whole town was in a b-oad glare of light -every house up on main street and many upon the other streets were lighted up by hundreds of candles, arranged in variable and beauti ful styles, tar barrels in the diamond were ignited, and fire balls were seen flying in every direction. The enthusiasm of ev ery person arose to the highest pitch. Nothing could restrain our young men and boys from lighting up their long and tastefully constructed torches . of, Pine Knots and many a procession before the 1 adjourned meeting took place. The pro- j of Mi I ford township, Somersot- county, gramme had to be changed and the pro- j Pa"., having been granted to the subscri cessioa was accordingly formed at the Di-j bers, ali persons indebted lo said estate cession was accordingly lormeu ai uic ji-j amond and marched lo the west end of the J town, to tha enliremny notes of the shnll ! fife and the martial roils of the rattling drum the procession then wheeled and marched to the e ist end of the town and returned to the Diamond along the wfeole route the precession was enthusi astically cheered by the males, while the bright eyes of the ladies, who lined the pavements, seemed lo vie in flashes of light with the glaring windows over their heads. " The adjourned meeting was called to order in the Public Square by the Presi dent mounted upon a temporary platform, and after silence wai restored, Cant. !S. i i j W. Pearson, Chairmm of the Commit j tee on resolutions, reported 'the following. herc-as, cur country is now engaged m a war with a foreign foe, it becomes the duty of the people to manitest their feelings of gratitude to those who have with unequalled success borne our Flag against disparity of numbers. Therefore Resolved, That the splendid victories achieved by the American Arms, at Palo Alto, Rcsaca de la Palma, Mon terey, Buena Vista and Vera Cruz, are striking evidences that American courage combined with American skill, can ac complish even against ihe greatest odds, and show too that if there wa no such word as "fail" in the vocabulary of Rich elieu, that of our gallant army and navy contains no such combination of letters as "defeat" or "surrender." Resolved, That Majors Gen'ls Scott, Taylor, Worth, Butler and Patterson, Brig. Gen'ls Wool, Pillow, Twiggs aud Quitman, and all the officers and men composing the several devisions of our noble army, at the respective actions in which they were engaged, have won for themselves imperishable honors, which a grateful people are at all times ready lo award to them. Resolved, That Commodores Connor and Perry, the other oificers of the navy and noble Tars who marind our fleet be fore the Castle of San Juan de Ulioa, the Gibralter of the Western world, for their elective co-operation with our gallant ar my in the bombarbment of Vera Cruz, and speedily bringing the enemy to ofTer terms of capitulation; are alike entitled to the thanks of tli3 American people, and prove to the world the stars and 6tnpes will ever be sustained with honor in their hands Resolved, That while we ihus mani fest our feelings of joy at the success of our arms, and tender to the brave gallant army &navy,we cannot but mourn the loss of many of our noble spirited fellow coun tryman who ftll in the several actions, and while we drop the tear of sympathy with their families and friends, we assure them that their memories shall live for ever in our heart's warmest affections The reading of the resolutions in the clear strong voice of the chairman' again aroused the feelings of the large assem blage, and they were unanimously adopt ed, amidst deafening cheers, peels cl mu sic, firing of guns and the roaring of the flyiBg fire balls. Loud calls for speeches were then made and the meeting was a bly and eloquently addressed successively by Messrs Cox, Ogle, Kimmel, Weyand and Edie. A song was then called for, when "The Star Spangled Banner" was sung with great enthusiasm and effect . by Messrs. Ogle, Hugus and others. On motion Resolved, That the pro ceedings of the several meetings be drawn up and published in all the newspapers in the county. ' . v. The meeting unwilling yet to adjourn, on motion, unanimously, agreed to form another procession, which was imme diately carried into execution, every man and every boy bearing two lighted can dles preceded by music, ihey marched out to Fair-view, the residence of Col. Ankeny, and returned again to the Public Square, where after lots of cheers the meeting adjourned sine nocte. The whole of the proceedings from first to last were gotten up and carried out in the best style, in fact in such a style and such brief time as the "Frosty Sons of Thunder" can alone accomplish. Many of our country friends were present at the meetings and especially at night they formed in the procession and seemed like all the rest to be carried along' by the rushing tide of patriotic enthusiasm. No accident occurred to mar the pleasure of the day or night. .
