Au Infamous Insivation!
FOUL ATTEMPT TO DE TROT WILSON
McCANDLEfI..y
READS READS
In the "Evening News - of Monday, we find
the following most base and infamous insinuation:
For the Evening News.
MR.FLassox have heard it stated. that
liiilson: McCandless, Esq.. the Democratic candi
date for Congress in this'district, charged the Gov
ernment the enormous fee of 5500, for his services
in the ease of the United States vs. Dr. Braddee.
No wonder Mr. McCandless professes great love
for thedear people. His love for their money is
. undoubted. Will the Post explain this matter
SRAILYSHti/1011.
The Post tit ill 'explain with the greatest of
pleasure. Now, therefore, we pronounce the above
paragraph a tissue of falsehoods from beginning
to end; and the persons who circulated such stud
must have been either grossly ignorant of the facts,
or purPosely bent upon mischief. It is well known
to our, citizens that•Ma..McCeicaLvss was not ern
' ployed as counsel to prosecute Braddee; but on
that trial he appeared as attorney for Dr. Braddee'
-- and could not, of course, have taken a fee from the
prosecution. If such a story was circulated at•
Sharpsburgh„ it must have been the work of Mn
McCaw - mass' opponents, who wished thereby to
create capital for "Oily Gammon" Hassrrot. l
We are glad that the News has brought this mat
ter to light, as it;will enable us to put the brand
of falsehood upon it at once. And we are glad of
it for .another reason, still more important. As
the ice is broken the public will know more about
this Braddee case, and those who took part in it as
counsel.
Bra.ddee, was tried for robbing the mail. C.
DAIIILAGR, Esq., at present the memberof Congress
from this county. was U. S. District Attorney. On
that occasion, with'the advice and consent of the
Agent of the P.O. Department, Dr. HOWAIID KLN
NEM', he employed A. W. Loomis, Esq., and S.
W. &sot, Esq, to assist him in the prosecution.
No other Attornies, we are confident, took part as
conned for the government, except perhaps Mr.
HOWELL, of Uniontown. Braddee or his necessa
ries, employed RICLIAIID BIDDLE, Esq.. 'Wasps .
M'Casrnisss, Esq., W. E. Acrrix, Esq., Mesas
Hamsrots, Esq., and other persons, whose names
we do not now recollect. The case was ably con
ducted on both sides. Mr. Ilsrarrox, we believe,
was employed by Strayer, and doubtless received a I
lee from him. About the time the case was cal
led up for trial Strayer became a witness for'the
prosecution; and then it was understood that Mr.
Hampton withdrew from the trial entirely t and de
clined to take part in the case in any form. An
honorable attorney could not consistently have
taken any other course. But what will the public
think, when they are informed that Mr. Hampton
"ved theenormous fee of $5OO front the Gorern
nient, ion,norso xorntrrol Does Mr. Hampton or
his friends deny this? If they do, we have, unfortu.
nately for them, the proof at hand, and we chal
lenge" a contradiction. We have before us a book
containing "An mamma of the Receipts and Ex
-penditures of the United States, for. the half calen
der year ending 29th June, 1843," prepared in the
office of the Register of the Treasury, in pursuance
of a law of
,Congr,ess. In that book at page 29,
we find the followinz item of expenditure, to wit:
Ty "M. Hampton, for professional
" services rendered in the case of the
" United States vs liraddee andothers, 5500."
Now, the veition arises what "services" did
Mr. Hampton render the United States on that
trial? We appeal to the Attorneys who prosecu.
tedßradee—we appeal to the public who witnessed
the trial , —for an answer. Did he suggest a single
idea—clid he open his lips to utter one wort in be
half of the United States? If he did not, then we
ask, in the name of justice, in the name of honesty,
upon what principle of morals can he claim the
enormous sum of $5OO of the people's money?—
We kriow Mr. Hampton loves money as he loves
his own soul; but we never supposed he was so lost
to air honor as to disregard the rules of profession•
al ; life, by acting as an attorney on one side, and re
ceiving fees front the other side!
If Mr. Hampton had been employed by the Uni
ted States-to assist in the trial of Braddee, Dr Ken
nedy, the special - Agent of the Post Office Depart
ment, under whose direction the case was conduct
ed-, would certainly-have been advised of the fact.
The' following copy of a letter written by Dr.
Kennedy, (the original of which will be found on
the in the proper' epartment at Washitigton,) in
relation to the claim of Mr. Hampton for compen
sation from the Government, will confirm all we
have said: - '
Faosveorton, Md., 16th May, 1642.
"Mr. 'Hampton I believe received a fee from
Strayer, or at least was to receive one, and. I do
not conceive either in justice or equity. that he is
entitled to any compensation from ibe Post Office
Department. I have not a copy of the report of
Praddee's trial with me, anti therefore cannot speak
positively, nor reer to .the page, but ram under
the impression, that during the progress of the
trial in reply to something which had been said
- On the opposite side, Mr. Hampton defined his psi
Han, and retired from the case after Strayer had
bcen examined as a witness."
('igned by) ,I4OWARD KENNEDY,
' Special Ag't of the P. 0. Dept.

After this, What will honest men think of Mo

- We iiiatee eitract from' yesterday's
Gazette, merely to show lioW bitterly such Whigs
as the pious editor - of that paper are galled,bY the
prosperous situation of the grain and produce rottr
ket, notwithstanding the modification of the Teriff
Of 18412 3 the repeal of which the Deacon predicted
would be the signal for the destruction and ruins
'lion of the country:
"What nonsense! What utter folly! What an
insult to the intelligence of the Locofoco party If
men will seriously swallow the cool and inipudent
assumption that the tariff of 1846, which is not
yet in operation, has caused the advance on Flour,
-wheat, corn, &c.; what will they not believe! The
assumption is impious. It directly assumes that
the rot u-as caused by the passage of 'the Tariff
Bill, Providence had nothing to do with it. The
weather in England was controlled by it: God
and Nature had no agency in, the change there.
Do any of our readers iiippose we are too harsh?"
The whig leaders are terribly annoyed by the late , ,
advance in the price of Breadstuff's, and even flea
con
White is horritiet at the "impious" aspertions
of the Democratic papers, attributing this favora
ble
change in the farmer's prospects to the opera-1
tion of the Tariff of IS IG, which the Deacon says
does not go into operation until next December.
I consequently it can have no influence on the pres
ent prosperty of the country. Very good: say 1
for orpiment sake this proposition is correct.— I
IHow then &Ices' it come that Deacon White and
other Whigs, exultingly , pointed to the reduction
in the price of Wheat, Flour and Corn, during a
'temporary depression, caused by an unexampled I
yield, And commercial difficulties between this
cotn!ti•y, and England—and sneeringly attributed the 1
depression of prices to the repeal .of the Tariff of
1 1:442?
Does the Deacon remember whether he thought
at that time he was •• impiously" insinuating that
a kind Providence hed cursed the country with an!
over abundant harvest? Or was he willing to take
advantage of circumstances, to prove that it was!
the intended reduction of the Tariff of 183'2, that
caused the fall in the price of grain, and not the
abundance of the crops, which every body saw,
was too great to be consumed by the n Humbug
HomeMarketr:
How long is it since the Deacon and other
Whigs published an account of sales of 200 or 300
barrels of flour shipped to, and sold in Liverpool
by - which the adventurer lost some 51200 ? Was'
that humbug published for the purpose of casting
ridicule on the FOreign Market, now opened to our
oroduce by Democratic Legislation? We knew a
man in Ohio once who sent 500 barrels of flour to
New Orleans on speculationi he paid 1+5,50 per bar
rel for it at home. sold it in New Orleans for $3,13
per barfa, t and incurred a loss altogether of about
51200—this was a home market.

THE CaoEs or Manyz.s.lro.—The editor of the
American Farmer states that he has been induced
to believe from the best information to be gained,
that the wheat crop of Maryland is considerably
less than an average one; and that the tobacco crop
will not reach two-thirds of a crop. Thtt oat crop
is unusually large. Rye better than usual—the
hay crop abundant beyond comparison—and the
crop unusually good in most parts of the State,
whilst in some sections of the Eastern Shore, where
they have not enjoyed the rains, during the past
month, it will be rather short; but as to potatoes,
the general impression.seems to be that not half a
crop will be raised, owing to the prevalence of the
disease whiCh has again prevailed in many sections
of this Slate, as well as in others.

FUIEND lliuesn:—Silence is not the course to
pursue towards Deacon White. - I have been wai
ting some days to see you castigate hith for his gar
bled and malicious use of your editorials. If
you knew this fellow as well as I do, you
would stop his mouth at once. He is, sir, one of
those vain coxcombs who can be compared to
nothing but . a balloon, as he gravitates upwards;
and if you would master him you must give him a
thrust or two' to let the extra gas out, and even
this will prove no enviable job from the offensive
ness of the
,smell. His vanity is only equalled by
his arrogance. He affects, sir, to be the leading
whip editor of this place, and you will be diverted
to see the shifts he will resort to in order to main
tain the dignity of hilassumed position. Wisdom
will die with Deacon - White. He apes in his edi
torials, Neville B. Craig, whose mantle he fades
fits him, and he struts in it with as much dignity
as a monkey would in jack-boots. Natural ability
he has little,• learning he has-none, but he makes
up in egotism what he wants in real merit. Corn
pared with Craig, this servile imitator of him is as
'but common glass compared: with , a diamond.—
Craig was pertinacious, so is this fellow, sir but
if you give him a pelt or two he will soon shew his
spaniel breed. You are a young man, sir, and I
hope you will not he offended at a little advice
from one who has bees here in the
tO" No offence whatever, my good friend of the
-Olden Time." We are even ready to receive
suggestions when given in gdod faith. With the
editor of the Gazette we intend having no contro
versy, urlessdriven into it against our better judg
ment. We think our readers will agree with u•.
that we can find more interesting subjects upon .
which to employ our pen. Wc - probably under
stand the art of using a sharp steel as well, as the
editor of the Gazette, hut•we! do not wish to sub

ter rarely permits.hicriself to.think about, or utter,
and yet in his feeble effOrts to promOte the. public

If, however, his influence or ezertion—limited as
they confessedly are—can forward the good cause,
in the promotion of Which the Post seems to have
engaged in good earnest, they will be forthcoming
at a moment's notice,
There is not, perhaps, another city in the Union,

If our people but knew the pleasure to be derived
from the use of this species of public property,
they would.loudly insist • on the immediate appro

After the toil of the day, in the heat of summer,
how delightful to the working man,—whether he
has been engaged in mental or manual labor—to
have his body cooled and his lungs invigorated by
the pure air of heaven; to behold the green trees
and spouting fountains; to enjoy the rational con
versation of his friends, and the pleasatit,entripany
of his wife and children! Only by`persons who
have experienced this innocent and exhilerating
enjoyment, can it be truly appreciated. '
The wealthy portion, of our citizens, as youl
have intimated, can amuse- themselves, when so
inclined, by taking an airing in their pleasure car-.tinges. There is no kind of pleasure beyond their
reach, or in which they may not indulge. What
cannot money procnre, qc -wealth purchase! Eve
ry thing, of a strictly temporal character, but
,health and an approving conscience.
It is plain, therefore, that the members of our
community, who are in possession of an immense ,
portion of this world's good, will not give thetri
solves much trouble in advancing the contempla
ted object. They feel not the slightest disposition
to incur what they deem unnecessary expense,
and will be almost sure to discourage any and eve.
ry enterprise that may have this tendency.
If it be asked why the members of the Councils
strenuously oppose all public improvements, the
answer is easily given—nearly, or perhaps all ot
them, are owners of real estate. They have no'
notion of increasing the taxes on their property—
of making individual sacrifices for the public weal. ' 1
or of placing in the possession of the bone and
sinew of the population, as many of the comforts
of life as the circumstances in which they are
placed will permit them to enjoy, Working men,
however, have voles, and if they cast them for
those who are indifferent to their happiness, they
deserve to sutler. No roan should have municipal
authority conferred upon him, who is not literally
and emphatically the friend of the people—of the
arrow/ producers—of the working masses. Let the
people be only true to themselves, and they can
bring about, through the ballot-box, almost any
change or reform they desire.

Mu. Enrroa:-..A few days ago Deacon White
made some very cutting remarks about a quantity
of cannon and Intl to be shipped from this place,
to New York, belonging to the Government, and I
went on to make it appear that Wm. B. Foster,l
Jr., our Canal Comnti_sioner,i by his stupidity'
and incompetency, would drive this freight by the
Erie Extension and the Lakes. Well, it so hap
pens that the Deacon Was mistaken again with re
spect to our ImprOvements, and our excellent Ca
' nal Commissioner. The contract was taken by
the Union Line at IA tents per 100 lbs. to New
York, and by this'contract they will make 30 cts.
per lOU lbs., clear of all tolls and State charges,
including freight (rani the Pennsylvania works to
I New York. Now if the deaconlean show that the
Erie route is lower. than this, le him try it again.
You can't come it, Deacon.

rTE.AM N•VIOATION TO TAG PACIFIC:--A let
ter from Valparaiso mentions the arrival there, on
the Fifth of May, of the British steam frigate
Sampson, Captain ffenderso4 in 58 days from
Portsmouth. , She stopped at Madeira for coal,
and in the_ straits of Magellan she sent men on
shore to cut wood, to supply her exhausted fuel.
She remained at a Chilian settlement for several
days. She proved nn excellent sea boat, both un,
der steam and under sail, and ;ran frequently at the
rate of twelve knots an hour.' Captain Henderson
was of opinion that if he had; replenished his sup
ply of coal at Rio de Janeiro, he might have made
the voyage from England to; Valparaiso in thirty
days. She encountered a succession of severe
weather in the straits of Magellan, which caused
much delay, most of which she would have avoid
ed had she been supplied with fuel. She was re
fitting for Valparaiso, and wditing for orders from
the admiral, who was on the ',coast of Mexico.
