The .Federalists are putting forth eitrat%linary efforts to defeat the Democratic nominees - for Governor and Canal Commissioner. It will lie the aim of the Reporter to meet them and give them battle-at every "pass" on the mule they are marching—to refute their calumnies and inconsistencies, and 16 place them in their true pmition'before the people, in their dishonorable and faetious opposition to their country in time of trouble.

The Federal_organ of this county, of last week, -makes allatlfooted acknowledgment that Gen. Tay lor is "as gooda Democrat as there is in the land." Of course there ends all support or countenance from the Bradford Arens. That print is-too. deeply im bued with the taint of Federalism to 'think of sup porting a Deniocrat. For ourselves, we adniire the character of Gen. Taylor, and especially the mod e Sty, ability and good taste displayed in his official despatches. That he is a' man of .Worth cannot .be be doubted; and, if his political principles are such as we hope to find them,and such as the Arius de dares thMn be, and should he be made the Candid ate of the Democratic party, we shall yield him our cordial support,—taking it.for granted that, the par ty shall first 'be satisfied titat the principled of Gen. Taylor fully,itarmonize with the Democracy 'Of the country, in regard to the great cardinal principles of w t. ave so long and steadfastly labored to main- The i e subjoined' sentiments,- from the Democratic Union, are so appropriate, in this connexion, that we adopt them, as doctrines recognized by every disciple of Jefferson. • . Federal principles will continue to be 'as objec tionable to the people, under whatever name they may be described. The Federalists are very anx ious to get rid of this odious appellation, and pro fess to be exceedingly indignant when it is applied to them, but so long as it is appropriate and they persevere•in advocating anti-republican doctrines, we intend to call. them by their significant party name. ' They cannot be called " Democrats," because that title belongs to our party, and they might as well steal our birthright as deprive us of this cha racteristic patty designation. They would be much gratified to take it from us, for many Of the most bigoted of their party believe tigkt our success is to be accounted for by the magic 'of the word, 'and have so contemptible an opinion of the intelligence of the mass,' as to imagine thatthey are too igno rant to think, and follow with blind instinct as the hound does the tainted track. • The night of ignorance is rapidly passing away, and the common school system and the penny press are distributing knowledge in the family circle OT the humblest citizen iii this land, and every one is able In read and understand. But Unfortunately for the worth of Federal principles, the more enlight ened the people become the more 'exception do they take to-them.. They can , rearcely be called Whigs from a parity of relation t 2 the position which the Whigs of the Revolution' held, although they are very properly so - designated by a figure of speech, as is some times said " focus a /mime/aide." The people who are now the Democrats, were then the Whigs, and supported the cause of the colonies, and the present Whigs are descended from the tongs of the Revo lution. • To be satisfied of this seek the few aged men who remain, who participated in the stirring events of those days, and a s k th e m w h o were th e tortes, and they will tell you that the ancestors of such and such families, present prominent Whig families, with of course honorable exceptions. Men have changed their politics. There are some Federaliits in the ranks of the Democratic party and vice versa ; but the great body of the NVllig party are descended, or forrneda part of the old •Feder) party. They avoiv the 'same princi ples and occupy the same relative position. Federal Slander.. We took occasion, a few weeks ago, to warn our readers that a concerted movement would be made by the federal press in the approachhig campaign to open the floodgates. of slander and abuse, upon the democratic candidates for office. The game, we see, is already commenced. The Mexican "Argun," of Saturday; contains an article purport ing to come' froin the Pittsburg American, which for low, vulgar scurrility, and depraved thought and sentiment, we think exceeds anything *5 have seen, even from the federal press. We doubt whe ther the Pittsburg American ever published or saw the article. We,are inclined to believe it a gross forgery. The American, we thought, had some pretentsons to decency and respectability, & is pt b. fished in the neighborhood of Gov:•Situnk's 1: 6 34' dente at the time he was elected Governor, and where the absurd falsity of the statements it eon- wins' 'Proof& ady - ailpstle art Otier olio gave them *cranes oucircohitiort. • .- • - That the Awn ishookl Ulm Ala IOW" lu k i'delicatemmaelc , itt.nottlittleas sturiang.

Merin midi Repeal. 4 Repeal, Rpeal, was to be the walchwent of the Federal party, until the odious tariff of 18.16 should lie demolished ; and that of 1842 restored. We hare been waiting. anxious to see the magic words "frrin and Repeal'' displayed on the banners, and at the head of the papers of the federal party, but we have looked in vain. • Farmers, you who have been selling your whet at Iwo dollars a bushel, your Rye and Corn at one dollar, and a ready market at your door at that, what say you! Are you prepared to join the Fed enilists in denunciations against the Democratic tar iff of 1846, and seek fey better prices and better prospects underTthe old law, framed expressly for British monopolis!s, If so, vote for "Irvin t Repeal." Lumbermen, pin who, under the present tariff law, have been realizing from twelve to thirty dol lar a thousand for your shingles and boards, Do you desire to be relieved from high prices and pros perous times, and return to a tariff for the protection of the rich, exclusively? If so, vote for "Irvin and Repent." All .who were duped by Federal trickery in 1844, and afterwards made to believe that the tariff of '46 was a great monster coming to destroy our towns, lay waste our fields and cast a withering blight and mildew upon all the prospects and best interests of the laborer and the husbandman,—you have now seen its effect.. If they are such as wait predicted by the Federalists, and you desire to change back to the old British tariff of 1842, then vote for Irvin and Repeal. • TAYLOR ccusto.—A meeting of Democrats was held at Harrisburg on Saturday, the 26th alt at which resolutions were passed in favor of Gen. Tay lor as the Democratic candidate for the Presidency. The President's Tour. The President left Washington on Tuesday 24th inst. at noon, with Mrs. Polk and niece, Attomey- General Clifford, Mr. Burke, Commissioner of pat ents, Mr. Appleton of the Navy department, and several other personal friends, who are to accom pany him on his tour. He was accompanied to the ears by the Heads of Departments and their faMi• 'lies, and by a large' concourse of citizens. The President and suite reached the outer depot near Baltimore, in a splendid car, fitted np espe cially for their accommodation—in one hour and a 'half. A national salute, from the junior artillerists of Baltimore, welcomed him to , the Monumental City. The welcome was renewed in person, by the Mayor of Baltimore, (Mr. Davies) and a com mittee of Aldermen, and the President's party were forthwith transferred to carriagers;--the President to a baronehe drawn by four white homes, and escor ted by a splendid military force, into the city and through some of the principal streets to the Ex change .Hotel—wham magnificenteccommodations had been provided. The reception is described as a brilliant and effective meant, and enthusiastic in a high degree--the masses of the people, the military, the city councils, the " Old Defend ers," the public schools, licei &c., all uniting in the tribute of iespect to the Chief magistrate. The streets through which the preemie:on passed, were throng ed---the windows; the hbensops and every com manding pest occupied—whilst the national banner every where floated in the breeze. The president then received the citizens gener ally, and retired about half past nine o'clock. About midnight he was serenaded by the splendid bands of the Independent Bine*, and of Capt. Voiaturr. When th e President and suite arrived in Philadel phia, he was escorted by a lareti eerncourse of mil itary and citizens in procession, through some of the principal streets, to the residence of Vice President Dallas. Oil Thursday he visited Indepetidence Hall, ,where he was received and welcomed by the mayor and City Authorities,. No demonstration has equalled it since the mem orable reception of the lamented Andrew Jackson. Party lines were dissevered ; .private differences forgotten, and personal feelings sunk in the gener al joy. The good citizens of our fair city commin gled together in one common brotherhood, as free men, as patriots, as Americans,to welcome r to hon. I or, and to extend the hospitalities of the city to his Excellency, the President of the United States, who holds the highest, the most exalted public sta. -non known upon' the haitbable globe. With all praise be it said, the cipposition_with the true spirit of emulation, embarked upon this later. eating occasion. They, vied with the Democrats in rendering unto the Chief M%tistmte of the Union those compliments and • civilitieS, which his high and dignified position eminentlY entitled. him to, and it was the frequent subject Cif remark, during the day, that a umversaldesire to do homage to an officer who has condueted - limself, in the adminis tration of his public functions, in such a manner, as to warrant the kind and disinterested regards and esteem from his fellowcitizens, was signally ap. parrent. His Excellency will, doubtless, hereafter recur to this visit to Philadelphia, with emotions of pleasure, and feelings of gratitude, for the generous nv-alry, and the general hospitality manifested by our good citizens in welcoming the nation's chief. The splendid steamer "George, Washington" (handsomely decorated"with the national ensign, and accompa nied s the talented band of the State Fencibles) e by the Committee of Arrange ments exp ressly to bring hither the President from Wilmington, left the wharf at Dockprecise ly at twenty-three minutes of 8 o'clock. The mom mg was cla: r, cool and pleasant, and the trip upon the water deliOtftd. The route of the President, from Wilmington, and through the streets of Philadelphia, was mark. ed by the indications of universal joy and hoepital ity. The. shores of the Delaware, and the Imes of the city, were filled with people ; and the roar of the cannon, the cheers of the citizens, the crow died 'Owns iiiishi****lthosesailAssit aimed.* ant kr the eitY = lll ' ar distiker the crowd of quondam was harass, and when the—Piresident reached the - mansienuf the Vice Prod, the thsoWnel'invendisialiegi Mr. Dallue reeitiied andl.mwed the ~ fresidest, as his guest s with wannthend confialily x • T Never upon INV memion was there mumso i thulium exiiibited—cheer upon akeei r loedl kaig, were sent lordi, , which Wyly made the - m rmg.- Walnut street from Eighth to Eleventh urea + completely blocked up with spectate_ kit mieh one glimpse of the chief, A 1 the Awing had subsided some:what. rice dent Dailies Mans appeared at the windriar .

In the evening, Ins Excellency was serenaded by the &niter Association and the libennoichor.-- Several patriotic ains and pieces from the differ ent operas, were performed in a truly masterly manner. The New Tat papers are filled with the most enthusiastic acccants of his conlial receptifiat in that city. We have only room for the following, from the Sun The reception of the President yesterday, wasin every respect la most brilliant affair. New . York turned out nobly for the occasion, and an earnest enthusiasm pervaded all classes. The welcome of the Common Council Committee, the introduction and welcome of the Mayor, with the President's response, as in fact the wholei official proceedings of the day reflect the credit upon all con cerned. The fir e weather permitted the whole city to ptuticipate, and to our recollection, no individual has received a. more general and hearty welcome to our city since the visit of Gen. Jackson. It was a grand—a sublime spectacle ! A spectacle which might well lift up and thrill the heart of any nian living. The Bay, Battery, Castle Garden. Broadway and other streets through which the President and procession passed,were all dense ly packed with eager spectators—the windows, bal conies and house tops were covered with as many more, and the brilliant .cortege defiled through the city, extending over three miles, loud huzzas, white handkerchiefs, boquets and - smillMgfiaces greeted the distinguished visiter. The military never made a finer display, and as troop after troop eweptalong, we could but feel that our country backed by bet gloriousinstitutio.ns and such noble men as these, had a proud destiny before her. What honor so lofty can the imperial thrones of the old woddeom mend, as that which yeeterdy saluted the Chief Magistrate of the United States. Free and appose neous, it was the beating of the national ward its self constituted. head. Kingly dwindle into a farce contrasted with it. *1P37016; of.a m*lity people responding to their own judg ment; and a ylt •W w ee d sympathy wilich is kap.. tadsmail r doin's • le a to which no honorlan be added. N hale the citizens of New York acquitted theme ves—end deeply will their entl *. elastic macaws and respect impress him on whom it wad conferred. It will sustain his heart and arm in the conflict of care and toil for the Republic,. Let no one think the let of such a man easy or en viable. Bitter mid often ill appreciated are the burthens of thosei who guide nations. standing on it perilous height, they bear the world's weight, as it were, and their only real reward is theconscious new of having done their duty, and the applause of those whose destinies are committed' to them,— Above all - rulers, the President of the United States is the guardian of a fearful and peerless trust. Del egated by millions of freemen, to defend their in terests and sustain their rights, his post is one of care and danger, and when faithfully fi lled, hi/sea ward should be iheir thanks and admiration. Such were the laurels yesterday offered to the President —laurels greener than bay, and brighter than the diamond. May he continue to deserve there; and the American people never refuse their Veal*, when it is !eon by exalted merit in the service of the Republic. At eleven o'clock, Saturday evening:, a fine Ger man Brass Band assembled under the windows of the President's room at the Astor House, and sere naded him until midnight when the curtain of si lence dropped over the scene, closing the festivities and excitement of the day—a day that will be long reng.uish ed membered by the people of this ci:y and their dig. li visitor. - In company with the Mayor he attended St. Bar tholemew a chucnsh at half past ten in the morning.

PRTAIDICNT'II RIELPTION AT Naw trip of the steamboat Hero was' attended with en thusiasm at every point—and the President was delighted with oar River scenery. The reception of the President at New Haven reflects credit on the public spirit of that city. The streets were crowded with horsemen and carriages, the win dows were filled with ladies and the troops made a very handsome amearance. At the State House thousands were :presented to the Presisdent, until oppressed by fangue and the increasing crowd, at the suggestiotafithe Mayor the President mounted a chair, bowed to the gentlemen—ehaking hands only with the fair sex, -who would not be denied that privilege.

Imig return trains to guard, and being threatened by a large body of lacers, halted at Fe, where they were charged by a greatly supenor force, which they gilbmdy repulsed, killing n*iy of the enemy, and sodiermg no loss themselves.— It wite said, however ? that some of our wa,,dotis, Were cat oil; and the drivers taken prisoners. Capt. Duperu arrived safely in'Vera Crux, having last in all three killed and three wounded. = On the day Capt. Bainbridges party left •Mcln tosh's camp, Gen.

The ' at Jalapa has been broken up by order of Gen. Scott, and all the sick and govern ment stores have been sent to Perote Castle, so that this line of communication is entirely closed. Gen.•Soott has had a road opened from Pemte to Taman, from which, in future all oil 'stores and men will be sent, in preference to the old road. The success rif the attack on Mclutrah's command has given great confidence to the guerillas, who are swanning as great numbers duiniii the country, and attacking all our parties, large and small. • It was chiefly owing the gallantry of Capt. Ben nett, the Paymaster, that the ipecie wagons in charge of the party were saved.
