Among the guests there, roi the time being, was one Michel _Murphy, an ectentric goodmatured soul, from what used to be .par ercellence, the land of potatoes; but which now may be• Called the potatireless land. He had been on a "big bust" in the city, and went over the Lake to dispel the fumes of his debauch, and take salt • haths•and soda water at the same time—for, "-.---;-Inaooth - be was a shameless wight, Bore given to revel and ungodly glee ;. Fevii earthly things found favor in his sight— Save concubines and. carnal c umpanie, •And flaunting wassailers of high and low degree: , . this became known to a ventriloquist who paid ....a dying visit to the place, and who had such corn mand over his voice that he could make it do any thing; Frain the. squeaking of a pig under the gate, to the - sioging of a mocking bird. Believing that Michad - was, just about that time, in an impressi - state:—in a reformatory mood—he thought he would,, through the medium of hi; art, endeavor to effect - a iavorable change in his morals. With this view he looked his game tar a bed in the same -room with Miclnsl, and about 12 o'clock at night —that hour to superstitious minds so fraught with terrors-: he " pitched his voice" outside of the -door, saying in a kind of trombone tone-- • • " Michael Murphy ! Michael Murphy! are you • asleep?" " Who's that ?" sail Michml, much startled at the sepulchral trine in which the query was pat, and the time of putting it. "Ask; tne not, butauswcr," said the ventriloquist, still continuing his ghost-like ac milt. "-Well what have you got to say ?" said Mi •• '• • - •- - Much-of which I want you, to take notice," • said the . ventriloquist, or rather the ventriloquist's voice. ." 0 clear off," said Michml, or "else give you . your tay." " Better you had continued to take tea than to break the pledge; as -you have done,." said the voice outsider the door. " Whet all this noise about'?" said the ventrilo• • 'quiet, speaking from the bed. Solite dirty blackguard that's outside the door there," said Michael, interferin' with what's none of liis business." ".4Vhy don't you drive him from it?" said the - ventriloquist speaking from the bed. .1 wish he dare," said the voice of the ventrilu- I quist. Speaking outside the doiir. "Be jabers 11l let you see 1 dare," said Michael, jumping up, seizing his hickory and hurredly open ing the door, ready, on sight; to knock down the Annoyer. ..Glib him said the ventriloquist, from -the bed..

" YOu won't do any thing bad to me V said Mi chael. "NOthing," said the voice. "Itonor bright? - ' said Michwl. "Honor bright," said the voice; and into bed Aftchl again went. "Now Michal," said the voice, "you know you have been a hard liver?" "That's a fact," said Michtel, " YOu broke the pledge " said the voice. "Throe as prachin," said Michad. "And did other bad things." " “ More than I iver could kape a tally of," said Mictud. "Then, will you pledge yourself to me, that you'll,change your mode of life?" said the voice. - "Ill do any thing yoli ask me." • "Then you-promise never to drink a drop again," said the voice.. "Nit as much as would bathe a wren's bill,' sail Michwl. "Then IM off," said the voice, "but, remembe r if you ever attempt to break it, Ill;be present and puniiiii you through life." Who is that with whom you are holding con versation?' said the ventriloquist, speaking again froth :the bed. "Devil a one at all,"said Michael, "barin" some mighty polite, invisible gentleman, that seems to takala great interest in me welfare." "Q,you're dreaming," said the 'ventriloquist - continuing to speak in in op-ea persona. "Faix, it's Brame, shore enough," said Mi chael The nest morning a friend asked Michael to take his bitters.. He consented, but just as he took the glass in his hand the'voice of the ventriloquist, who wacßresent; was heard above his bead, in the air' crying out--" Touch it not, "Filch:el Murphy—se inetriber your promise." It was enough. Miclial would taste not. 'The pleasure of wine with you, Mr. Murphy said a gentleman at dinner. "With' pleasure, sir;' said Michml, but just at that; moment a voice was heard to issue from the corner of the room—it was that of the ventrilo quist who eat by his side, uttering his admoni tion.: • Thus the thing went on for a week, till Michell Was...then and forever made a teetotaler of.

The Federal party in this Statel, have a great deal to say about the length of time during which Gov. Shunk has filled public stations and the iw mense amount of money which fie hasconsequent ly drawn from the public treasuriy. They seem to forget, that the public offices bete to be filled by some persons; that, in general, those who occupy public stations, are believed to he competent to discharge the duties pertaining th their offices; that, almost uniformly. those longest retain public trusts, who discharge their duties most faithfully, in the estimation of the appointing power; and, that, in the public service, all officers are allowed by law, an amount deemed sufficient to maintain a man, and enable him to provida for his family, in a comfortable manner : all !la* things seem to be forgotten. We do not deny that Gov. Shunk has been for a long time in public life ; but we do deny (and this is what the Federilists wish to es tablish,) that he has ever obtained a dollar from the public treasury, either directly or indirectly, to which he was not considered by the guardians of the public treasure, justly and eminently enti tled, for services rendered to his fellow-citizens.— So far, therefore, as the duration nil - his public ser vice is concerned, he and his friends can point to the fact, as one of the most pleasing connected with his history. Indeed, not oniy in public but in private life, does his character stand so high among his fellow citizens, that all the bitterness ofFederal hostility —all the_ fertility of Federal inVention—bas not been able to find a ground, upon which to frame a charge injuriously affecting him.; Surely' no high er encomium cane passed uport a public officer than this; and uo man can go bnfore the commu nity presenting stronger claims Ito their support. But the inconsistency of the federalists is most apparent in this matter,from their reference to the length of time in which he has been in the public service. They contend that he ihas been in office long enough; tharhe ought to give way' to some one wbc has not been • so long . ; and, they might, say, so honorably employed. Icj making this ap• peal to their fellow citizens, they forget that they have uttered many lachrymose P romplaints, when Democratic administrations baw4 come into power, about the gross injustice of playing their own po litical friends in important public stations, which had been occupied for a long Series of years .by Federalists. They forget that s o me of the princi pal objections which they urgedlto these removals were, that persons who had so Icing been connected with a public station were meashrafily disqualified fur attending to mho pursuits ; they were thrown out of employment, to be dependent upon the cold charities of the world ; and that various other touching appeals were made in favor of the con. tinuance of their friends in But their opposition to Goverhor Shunt:, on this point, is not to be wondered a; and only shows that, having no more weighty ;objection to urge against his re-election,they must find some ground, on which to oppose him, even tough it should be at the sacrifice of all regard forlconsistency. The people, however, will decide u i pon this point, as they have heretofore decided. They have always found him honest and capable ;and they will prove that they value his past services, by again placing him in the highest office in the State. Business on the leanal. The following note, addrer4eil to the editor by the gentlemanly collector of foils at Johnstown, exhibits a trulpgratifying picture of the business done on the Pennsylvania Canal,during the present season.

By the arrival at New Orleans of the steamer Orleans, the editors of the Delta ate furnished with still later news from Vera Cruz; and also with despatches from Mr. Kendall, one of its editors, who is 6611' in Mexico, and in coustant communi cation'with the army. . . At the time of sailing of the Orleans from Vera Cruz, news had arrived from the, City of Mexi7, that the Mexican Congress had ,postt oiled indefi. nitely'the election.of President—owing, doubtless, to the desire manifested by many to have peace; which is not favored by the Military leaders; and had conferred on Santa Anna, the title and powers of Dictator. This event s though it would be considered remarkable in any other country, is no more strange than many others connected with the history of political affairs in Mexico; and as a recent account stattd, that he had been "hissed, pelted, laughed at," in the capital, by the popu lace, the next we get will be no more wonderful, if it shall state that he has been beheaded or shot. The accounts from Vera Cruz also state, that Gen Alvarez was stationed between Perote and Puebla, at the head of a force of 71000 Mexicans, awaiting the approach of the troops under Gen. Cadwallader, who he meant to attack. The forces under Gen. Cadwallader amounted to between 1000 :and 15O0men, with a considerable wagon train; and they would of course have pretty warm work I in contending with so greatly superior a numeri cal force. Mt. Kendall, in one of his letters:states that the prospect of concluding a peace is now more un-1 certain, than ever; as the recent letter of Santal Anna has had the effect of restoring confidence, tol a great extent, in his ability and disposition to maintain the war, and overcorne;tlae American arma. lie still assures his infatuated countrymen that he %sill “drive the invaders from the soil of Mexico." When the forces under Generals Cadwallader and Pillow . sball have joined the main army, the forces under Gen. Scott will number about b(s)t) choice troops : Both these Generals had left Vera Cruz.

John M. Clayton; and lithe position which he assumed was, that ,the power to legislate having been conferred by the Constitution on the Legislature, it was its duty to pass laws absolute in their prvisions, . and not leave them to go into affect or not on the contingen cy of a vote of the people resulting in a particular I manner. He urged in favor of this with great force' as a Conservative Principle,upon which the stabili ty of the Government, and the inviolability' of the Constitution depended. The Court adopted his view, and the act was declared to be null and void. As the principle determined in Delaware is equal ly applicable to Pennsylvania, the grant of the legis-, latisee power being the same in both, it follows, ifl the decision jlist mentioned be correct, that a simi lar law passed by our Leg islature, and applied to several counties , must be also unconstitutional.— Some of the tavern keepers in Chester county, where the people decided against ; license, have' determined to test the question, and have employed.l it is said, Vice President Dallas, Mr Clayton, and' other eminent counsel to argue it.—Dnaorratic Croon. lie do 12c do 10c do lic do 9c do common .

The cost of them is much i less than mules or horses, and they stand the joir-. hey much better—requiring less attention, and are, not so liable to attract the thieving propensities of, the Indians on the route. And another reason why they are preferable is that atter getting to the journey's end they' can be fattened with but little expense and used forbeef.
