to riefitat The nomination of the ITOM WALTEIt Fon-

along said, and still sat, that Mr. F. •is entirely too

The American of last evening,' in noticing the
eel for a . State Convention, holds the following
language:
"'This is all right enough. It has been usual to
told our Comity Convention in February, but we
lain that an extra-official:order has been recieved

The itatics'in each of the above extracts belong

to us. It is certain that a storm is brewing in the
federal camp; The letter of Mr. SAXIMIIIION, al
ided to by the ./Inierican, is the ; coolest piece of
impudence we have seen these many days. Just
think of the idea of orders being tent to this coun
ty, the , home of Mr. Fonwann, to select deleiates
favorable to the nomination of Mr. Cooper or Mr.
:Meanie, it matters not which, so that Mr. Forward
is throat , aside! We shall await with anxiety to
see the finale of this controversy.

No doubt the following letter of Jour M. Ra in.
Esq., will be read with interest by our citizens.—
It teems that difficulties are already thrown in the

DIXNEII TO JUDGE •TOOMPSON.—The Erie Ob.
4^,This day the great Webster Festival comes
offinPhiladelphia. It will doubtless be a grand
affair; so far as an extravagant expenditure of mo
t rey Can make it grand. Mr. Webster has many
*arm friends in the country, and they are to be
found among the descendants of the old tones of
, the revolution, and the blue-light federalists who
have always been in opposition to their own coon
fry in e'very controversy with foreign governments.
These patriots will gather around /gr. Webster to
day at the Chinese museum; and hail him as their
chief and leader, eminently worthy of their coal
..
dance and - esteem. There is now no doubt but that
powerful effort-will be made to secure Mr. 'Web
itet:inomination for the Presidency.

For the Morning Post
Plain Thoughts on the Tariff Question.
No. 3.
Does any man doubt that a protective Tariff is
essential to the prosperity of Pennsylvania? Ido
not contend for any particular Tariff. A high
Tariff merely for protection is out of the question;
because we must yield something :o the prejudices
and supposed interests of our southern brethren.
On the other hand we may expect them to yield
something to our essential interests. The bill of
'46 ;spurns all our pretensions; and hence the an
swer given by the people at the late elections.
Consider merely our coal and iron. A larg,c
portion of our state is rugged and mountainous,
and of little value for purposes of agriculture.—
Without a protective Tariff these districts would
be entirely waste: with a protp,tive Tariff they
parts or our tee
lytrubee vreireueozsr

Tstory. As an agricultural, kale. Pennsyls-ania
r w es o o u u ld rc ee es. rtai th n e
her initierals.'
MIS an. waste places will be
more coveted, will sustain a denser population, and
yield more revenue to the public Treasary than
her most fertile plains. Under the free trade sys
tem many of these would remain for ages deserted
and worthless.
Dat when we consider the present condition of
our Commonwealth, the madness of faltering on
this subject from any mere party considerations, is
most apparent. We have an extensive chain of in
ternal improvement, depending chiefly (except the
Main Line) on the mineral distriets;tor their re
sources. The last few years have shown that with .
proper management these works will yield a hand
some yearly income to the State. With the most
extraordinary extortions we are now barely able to
save our honor by paying the interest on our pub
lic debt. Destroy the great Iron and Coal inter
ests by withdrawing adequate protection. and you
utterly extinguish the internal improvement reve
nue, except a portion of that which is derived trom
the Alain Line. Then sold come additional tax
ation; which would be still more incieased by the
abandonment of many portions of the mineral
districts, which would then be no longer taxed.
And this accumulated burden would fall in a great
measure on the farmer, who would then under
stand, if he doge not already, bow he is interested
in a protective tariff: -
gut, to prove to Pennsylvanians that they are
interested in a protective tiffiff, is a very superflu
ous task. ?The late elections showed that they on
derstood the subject, and that the infidelity of some
of their leaders could not affect their fidelity to the
Commonwealth. Nay the people of Pennsylva
nia ever show their Democracy by prefering prin.
ciples to men !

MELANCHOLY LOSS OF LIFE AND SHIP
EDO Jnrowi, Nov. 2(3, 1846.
The brig Lincoln. of Deer Isle, Baynes, master,
from Bangor the oth inst., lumber loaded, for
Brooklyn, N. Y., when ten miles to the South-west
of Gay Heath. on Monday morning last, was knock
ed down and Hee: with water, and deck load
washed off: They then cut away the lanyards
with their knives, and both masts went over the
side. The vessel being unmanageable, was carried
by wind and tide. On Monday night, Richard
Brown, Jr., died Iroin exposure. en Tuesday
morning, Wm. Adams, of the sanie place, died.—
on the night of the 25th, at 10 o'clock, the vessel
grounded on the South beach of this island, soon
after Benjamin J. Saunders, mate, of the same
place, jumped from the vessel into the surf, hoping
to reach the shore. He was never seen afterwards.
This morning, the - 213th, by means of a spar which
they placed over the bows of the vessel, the cap
tain and the remainder of the crew, two in num.

Bial S. Haynes, of Deer Isle, fell off the spar into
the water. His comrades got him ashore, but he'
l alto died within thirty minutes after landing, Thal
captain and one man, viz: Charles J. Saunders, of
Deer Isle, Were saved, and arrived at the house of
Mr. B. Stewart, where they are doing well. They
were:very much exhausted, having had nothing to

The body, of the mute, Mr. Saunders, was found
this evening by Mr, Elijah P. Smith, and was pro-,

CITY HOSPITAL:.
Yesterday we published a communication on
the subject of a hospital proposed tibe erected un
der the supervision of the "Brotherhood of St. Jo
seph,- a Catholic Society of this city. So, then,
Pittsburgh is to have a hospital at last. and one
too, on the correct plan—free from sectarianism,
and economical in its arrangements.
The Protestants of this city, with their great
wealth and numerical strength, shotild blush that
the sick poor of their own people are to be protect
ed and nursed by the Sisters of Mercy. The coal
shed will soon be deserted and our city relieve]
from the expense of paying for keeping up that
establishment.
We trust that men of all religions and creeds,
Is well as men who believe nothing—will give
what aid they can to the Brotherhood in their phil
anthropic enterprise. The liberality'of the Soci
ety should be sufficient inducement for clergy and
laymen of all denominations to contribute some
thing. It will require but little from each person
to relieve the city from the disgrace of having no
better place for the insane and sick than the jail
and water works coal shed.
We have been requested to re-publish the last
paragraph of the communication which appeareii
yesterday :
Committees appointed for the purpose Neil l wait
on the citizens generally tor their subscripiions.
Contributions toward immediate preparations for
the reception of patients, can be sent to the Sisters

Merchants' Eschange.—There was no meeting

WRECK OF THE STEAMER ITLANTiCi
MANY SAVES LOST!
The New Journal of Commerce. and Tribune,
of Saturday evening, contain full accounts of a ter
rific gale which occurecl . on Wednesday night last.
along the Atlantic coast. There 'was a regular
"No' east.cr, - with rain, snow and sleet, which con
tinned ap night.' : - Aktsant one o'clock on rhursd
iy
morning, the Nth, nit, the splendid steamer A-r-
L NTIt, which run as. a passenger - boat between
New York city and Boston. via Norwich and Wor
cester, left New London for New York, and whei;
about nine miles outside the light house, the steam
pipe running into the steam chimney bursted, ren
dering the engine entirely useless.
The anchors were immediately bore over, at
which the steatrier'rocle through that night, which
was very dark and stormy.
At daylight she was abreast of the New London
tight, drifting all the while toward the shore.
The steam pipes wereftrst cut away, next the
pilothouse, and then the bulk-heads, so as to give
the wind a clear sweep through the vessel, and
render less surface to its attack.
The colors, says 31r. Stetson, in an account pub.
lished in the Herald, were hoisted half-mast, but in
the Mohegan's attempting some measures to go to
her assistance, were hauled down by order of Capt.
Dusten, who knew that her efforts would be inef
fectual. Thus the steamer remained all day, till
toward 6ve in the afternoon of Thursday, the wind
lulled, and hopes were raised that all danger was
over; but not long after,, the wind shifted two
points, and blew with more than previous vio
lence.
. .
There were between seventy and eighty persons
on board in all, including passengers, officers and
The confusion incident to the disabling of the
steamer in a perfect hurricane, rendering her en-
tirely unmanageable, surperadded to the anguish
of the scalded and the terror of all on board, is in
describable. The intense cold was another source
of suffering to the passengers, all the fires having
been extinguished on Thursday morning. As the.
boat continued to drift, the passengers prepared
themselves with life preservers, (belonging to the
boat,) to effect a landing if possible as soon as
•
she should strike.
About noon Capt. Dustan lightened the vessel by
throwing overboard 40 tons of coal and . her heavy
smoke pipes, and later itt the day he caused her
deck to be cleared of the merchandize with which
she was freighted to a great:value.
All Thursday night the gale continued to in
crease, and in despite of her anchors and heavy
weights attached to cables, She continued to drift
till 4 o'clock Friday morning,and for two hours
(from 2 till 1 o'clock) lay within a cables-length
of the breakers, held byher anchors. At about
half past 4 the stern touched on a ledge of rocks
jutting out from Fisher's Island, and both cables
instantaneously parted, and she broached to, lying,
hioadside to the shore, in a heaVy surf. She struck
with appalling violence, and in five minutes after
she went to pieces: In an instant nearly forty
soulsowere ushered into eternity.
' There were six females„ our children, and two
infants amorr , the paisengers. All the females
were drowned or crushed to death. Only one of the
children, a boy of t 2, was saved, and he was the
only one of the family of which he was a member.
Flis,father, Mother, married sister, and .a younger
sister, and two young brothers, were on board.
The two infants were drowned, frozen, or crushed
to death., - . •
