The people of Geauga county, in conrention
- at Aattion, a few days since, nominated the Hon.
Thomas Corwin as a candidate for the Presidency.
. Several eastern papers, the Phila. ti. S. Gazette of
•
the dumber, show a decided inclinatian toward
Gem Taylor. We admire Gen. Taylor as a
aol
dier and'a patriot, but we deprecate the war in
which we have been most innprovidentially
ed for the very reason among others, that: its ten
denky, is to convert us I rum a civil representative

The contributors to thie fund I'suppose to be

men—whilst they have their interest involied in
the protective system, and are able Ohly,by being
thus involved to pay their respective shares to his
suppletory fund? lie must either run counter to
his convictions and conceal the change, or confess
it, and use their money to support him whilst he
tries to destroy their do . ctrines.
. Although Mr. Wehster's taking the money at all,
furnisheif,a strong probability that he will never
change, yet his actual change would not be more
wonderful than changes which he, perhaps, has al
ready made. It would not be more marvellous
than the change which the papers say has come

ozjs. The Boston Chromitype, from, which the
above is copied, is an independent paper—a bitter
opponent of the administration.
We quote its article because it is believed to
contain truth and if it is • ail true, what a corn.
I mentary is it upon the conduct and pretensions of
that great party which arrogates to itself all the pat
riotism, philanthropy and honesty of the country. ,
Is such a man as Webster the proper person to
hold a seat in the senate house—the feed lawyer of
New England aristocracy, whose great study it is
to argue against the interests of the great mass of
the people.
Whit will our honest Whig working men think
of the means adopted by New England manufac

- Youiro .RonixsoN's FVNERAL, yesterday after
noon, was the largest we have ever witnessed, with
perhaps one exception. The firemen turned 'out
in their full strength i Capt. Guthrie's company and
the Birmingham Guards were also out with music.
It is estimated that there were not less than fifteen
hundred people in the procession. The vast con
course that was assembled on Wood and Sixth
streets, as spectators, was beyond all calculation.
The remains of the young soldier were interred in
the Episcopal burying ground, Sixth street.
ar The " Independent Police" officer, whom
We commended on last F;riday for using a boy
roughly at the doCor of the Lafayette Assembly
Rooms, is denounced very bitterly by some gen
tlemen who were present. They report to n s
that the boy was impOsed upon; attacked when
doing nothing to gturb - tTie " peace and dignity "
of the city, and badly beaten.
We have now given both sides, and as we were
not present, we have no opinion of our own on the
subject.
t:C.l.lere was another large funeral yesterday—
that. of Mr. John Patterson. of the Third Ward.
The' firemen were out in, great numbers, and the
citizens turned out largely. He was interred in
the Episcopal yard; Sixth street.

about 25 cents, were taken. This is the first case

NEW YORK CITY ELECTION.
Erady Elected Mayor—. 3 Whig Common Council
—Democratic Alms House Conamissioncr
The election yesterday, resulted in the choke of
Wm. V. Brady, Whig, for the office of Mayor, by
near MO majority, and in the total defeat of J.
Sherman Brownell, his Democratic opponent.—
Many leading Democrats openly electioneered in
favot of Brady. This is honorable to them under
the cirnstances, and to the party. Thousands of
Democrats refused to give their votes to Brownell,
and great numbers of them voted for Brady. The
same fact doubtless influenced the votes on the oth.
er officers to some extent. We tnist that Norni.
noting Conventions will learn wisdom from this
result. It is one in which our city has reason to
rejoice.
A majority of the Common Council is also
Whig. In several Wards this resulted from the
Democrats having more than one candidate.
A comparison of the vote for Mayor with the
vote for Alms House Commissioner will be in
stnictive. Mr Leonard, the Democratic candidate
for the latter office is elected by over 2000 majofity.
Extracts from a letter from a correspondent of the
New York Journal of Commerce, dated
Lox uoX, March 10th.
Accounts from all parts of England,"'Scotland.
and Ireland, have settled the question as to the
next potato crop. The disease has progressed to
a fearful extent, and even those) potatoes husband
ed for seed, which appeared round and good a i
month ago, are tainted in the most severe and
recoverable manner. These statements give cause,
for gloomy forebodings, and induce us to dread the
worst, in the event of a bad harvest. In former'
years—say twe years back—the London retail '
price for potatoes was three pounds for two pence; !
now nothing of the kind can be produced fit for
ta
ble, and even then very small. under nio pence for
each pound of potatoes. This excesidiely high
price renders the favorite esculent a rare visitor at
the poor man's table In England, though he May I
i
be n constant work and receiving good wages !
Bread is much cheaper in proportion,—the quitter'
loaf, of four pounds, ranging from eight pence to
nine pence according to quality. • The same weight
of potatoes conies to eight pence, and when you'
deduct the amount lost by paring
and boiling, at a
glance it will be seen that bread is incontestably
and considerably cheaper. The vast quantities or
brea I.stufrs which have arrived from the States,
and which are known to be shipped, or to be ship.
ped, for this country, keep down the price ot bread
in the metropolis, which at one time during this
winter actually reached eleven pence half penny
the four pound loaf.
It is a highly satisfactory proof of the improve.
ment of the people, in the three countries, that we
bear of no seriops riots or disturbances. There
are no machine breakings in the manufacturing
districts—no cases of arson in agricultural coun
ties—the highlands of Scotland exhibit fretfulness,
nothing more—and in Ireland, though the people
are all arni!d, we do not even hear of a faction
tight.
-The Chartists, too, are quiet. They'have turn
ed their attention to the land, with the view of{
becoming agrarians Colonies, for the purpose of
agriculture, are to be formed, not upon the Owen
ite system of community in all things, but each
party having a distinct portion of land fo himself. )
and for his own individual advantage. Already {
they have purchased one estate in Gloucestershire
for which £12,000 sterling was paid.
In France there are five millions and - a half of
landed proprietors who have an income not ex
ceeding three pounds per year. What is the fate
of these parties? Why they live upon chesnuts
and acorns, just as the Irish conacre men existed {
upon Irish potatoes. Now. the same calamity I
must befall France, which is scourging Ireland.— !
A small piece of land cannot be of service be

It appears quite evident, from the British pro-{
vincial papers, and from the Irish press, that emi
gration to the United-States will be, this spring
and summer, in unusually large nutnbers. Front
200,000 to 300,000 are expected to emigrate from
Ireland alone this year. The London Morning
Chronicle of the sth says:
" We may hope, without feeling entire confi
dence, that Canada and the United States will be
able to absorb this multitude quietly and profitably,
and there is no doubt that the immense demand for
agricultural produce in the present year will af
ford unusual facilities for absorption. 'fhe United
States will be the greater gainer by this movement.

During the absence of the Committee the meet

The Committee havini returned, Mr. Guthrie,

speedy and honorable-conclusion—and
WHEREAS, The patriotic exertions of the na- I
tional administration, to conquer an honorable;
peace, have been met at every step by the derfun.;
ciations of the Whig leaders. in and out of Con-1
gress, and concurred in by de great mass of that
party. thereby crippling the energies of the Gov.;
ernment, and administering " aid and comfort to
the enemies of our country.
Resolved, That the recent. glorious victories oh- i
dined by our patriotic armies, have taught the
presumptions Mexicans, the danger of violating I
public treaties and invading American soil, and
this has been done in despite of the whip denuncia
tion of, the war as "unjust and unholy," and with
out any regard as to whether the "aid and com
fort" of that party have been given to the enemy
or withheld from their own coritry.
Resolved, That the attempt of the Whigs to ap..:
propriate to themselves for political purposes, the
glorious achievements of the American army and
navy at Palo Alto, Resaca de la Palma, Monterey,
Buena Vista, arid \'era Cruz, evinces a degree of
reeklet4 assurance scarcely equalled by
. their pre
vious exertions to make, capital by decrying the
war, and its friends for proseeuting it.
Ersoln-d, That as the Whigs have possession of
the city governments of Pittsburgh and Allegheny,
and hose thus far refrained from adopting the
course pursued by othercities of the United States,
we earnestly recommend to all good eitizeds. who
have the honor and glory of the country at heart.,

Rewired, That we view with pride and satisfac
tion, the alacrity with which the Old Keystone
State furnished more than her quota of volunteers.
and especially do we look with feelings of the
highest gratiliemion. upon the long array of names
of our immediate friends and neighbors, taho, lea
ving Mei': wiles and children, mothers a i d sisters,
nobly volunteered to meet the enemies of their

On motion, Samuel Jones, the resolutions were
unanimously adopted.'
Wilson :Nl'eandleste wits Theft called upon to dd.
dress the meeting, which he did in a manner sim :
gularly felicitous—awakening the,pntricitism and
the sympathies of all hearts-arid at the same
time, pouring out a full measure of well deser.'ed
censure upon that party'who have given and still
continue to give "aid and comfort to the enemy."
Judge Shaler then came forward and made one,
of those politico-patriotic speeches, which are so
peculiar toltimself, but which was responded to
by bursts of applause from every hne present.

The Washington correspondent of the New
York "JoUrns' of Commerce says, with much
nairele, that—
wrhe next packet, that sails for F.ngland will
carry out the intelligence that the Americans have
won the brilliant battle of Buena Vista against
great odds; that the Americans have taken the ci
ty of Vera Cruz and the formidable castle of San
Juan dlilloa; that the Americans have. opened the
ports of Mexico to neutral trade ; that the Ameri
cans have sent a fleet of ships laden with provis
ions for starving Ireland; and that American
credit rises at home, in the face of large expendi
tures; and that the new loan is taken at a rate
above par."
The news will go at the same time that Gene
ral Scott is now on the wing for the table land and
the capital of Mexico, and that the treasury of the
United States is in such credit, and the resources
of our people are so abundant, that more than
three times the amount of the loan which the Gov
ernment wanted has been offered—nearly sixty
millions—and nearly all above par. The stock
bus since advanced, and is rising in the market.
Considering that this administration is bankrupt,
as the opposition papers have ventured to predict,
this facility of obtaining three times as much mo
ney as they want, is Ving very well. Mr. Cal_
houn, too, who has no adequate idea of the ener
gies of a free people—who was for a system of
" masterly inactivity" in relation to Oiegon, and
underrated, in his speech,'the resources of the Uni
ted States, and who was pretty much for the same
system of " masterly inactivity " in his speech
about Mexico, also said: - Well, then, we must
have another campaign. NoW, Wsolemn question
comes up, Have we the means? Can we raise the
money'?" Let the loans of yesterday answer this
gloomy interrogatory.—Union:
GENERAL ROBERT PATTERSON
While every tongue is eloquent in praise of our
soldiers and sailors in the bombardment of Vera

THE ADVANCETO THE CAPITAL
The veteran Twig.gir has already advanced on
the road that leads to the capital of the Aztecks.
lle commands the'vanguard of the army which is
to realize the popular idea of revelling in the halls
of the Montezumas. Our own Smith leads the
division, with his g allant rifles, and a nobler corps
has never marched under our banner ; and a strong .
body of regular infanti,y and artillery, amounting,
in all, to 200 strong, bring up the main body.
Thirty mites from Vera Cruz, the - river Antigua)
is skanned by a noble bridge, built of stone, with
lofty arches, and guarded by a strong fort which
commands the road for a long distance. This]
bridge is associated with some of the most gallant
displays of Mexican Courage and patriotism
Here it was the braveiVictoria, with a small band
of peasants, kept at bay the Spanish armies, and
cut otT the convoys ofl their treasures and provis-1
ions. The post is a strong one, and if defended;
with skill and vigor, wllt give oar army much trou-'
ble. It is said that La Veg a commands the force
at the Purrte Narionai, and is deterriiined to jus-1
tify by some brilliatl deed the high expectations
excited by his manly; at Resacatle Pal- 1
ma. But it will be v hi. The impetus which our
military strength and ednfidence have received from
the pre% ions success id our army, will bedr it j
tri
umphantly over all the obstacles of ;Mexican valor'
and fen or. This bridge passed, the road lies open, I
and unobstructed to the lovely city of Jalapa. Hefei
our hardy veterans, accustomed to the low marshy
valley of the Rio Grande and the arid plains ofj
Coahuila and Nuevo Leon, like the republican ar
my of Napoleon. after passing. the frigid and rug
get! heights of San Bernard- . and pitching their'
tents in the smiling vale of the Arnu, will suddenly
find themselves transported into a region of sur
passing beauty, fertility and salubrity. Here they
may stretch their wattOrn frames on beds of
roses and violets, and 4tirtheir senses on- all that
is rich and beautiful in tii4iture. The cool, bracing
air of the mountain initieles with the soft, health!
giving breeze from the Gulf,-and the combination
produces an atmosphere of perpethal spring. Here I
will flock the poor peasants witlgihe various pro-,
duce of this rich valley, with itikxhaustible sup
plies of luscious fruit and nutrifious food. But
delightful as the scene aid its pleasures are, Mir
army should not rest here longer than to refresh
their tired bodies and repair the damage of the
hard service on the sandjsiils of Vera Cruz, and of
the march from the sea-shore. A summer encamp
ment would be highly: detrimental to the morale
of our army The hash natures and rough habits
or our soldiers would ten riot in the luxurious
abundance of Jalapa. Cloward, onward, must be
the cry. Continual', activity is the true secret of
military discipline. Soldiers ilrJ always happier,
and more obedient and docile under the excitement
of a march, than when in camp under the domin
ion of idleness and Mani. There is no reason why
oar army should stop for any leagth of time at
Jalapa. The summer in l this high region is mild
and temperate, the roadls level and beautiful, anti
the country through which it passes is fertile and
productive, in ten days our army could march
from Jalapa to the city Mexico. Here, we
think, the enemy would offer no resistance, the
• city not admitting of any effective defence against
artillery. If the Mexicans were determined not
to yield their Capital without a blow, it would be
struck before our rainy arrived within sight of the
city. Bdt. with a force of 2(7,000 strong, we do
not apprehend any serious difficulty in taking the
Capital. Once possessed of this famous El Dorado
of our soldiers, this magnificent city of the noble
race, who fell beneath the bloody sword of Cortez,
we shall then be prepared to listen to the overtures
of the enemy for peace, or. if such overtures are;
not made with all due humility, to take posses.:
Sion of the whole Republic as the lawful spoils of',]
war, and to govern it with the laws of our Re
