ly,lassert•that he has "all his life time-written a'
good hand, (which we doubt, though the stretching'
ptiarensities of Federal writers are so great, that
• wa must alloW them so ne license.) and has been,
• . industrious, as a mere clerk, beyond - which he,'
Perhaps, nei•er had any capacity." The same I
I, .writer, if he states the fact on this point, shows
that the Governor has been connected with the
VpU lic business of the State for about thirty-live
yearq during' all which time he has been Millis-I
trious, and even his worst enemies have not dared
to utter a word, in disparagement of his character!

for honesty, and the faithful discharge of his public
duties. Ile also tells us, that Mr. Shunt: mede:
some progiess in the study of medicine, relinquish
,
ed ;that and 'was afterwards admitted to practice
• .in'the tourts of this State, as an Attorney at Law.
= Tat, notwithstanding he admits all this, Governor
Sh t unk has • " velar had any capacity.'
It seems to us, however, that the There fact, of
his having-bestowed a considerable length of time
upon the study of medicine ; the study of 101 V, to
• , - tetih an extent, as to enable him to be admitted to
the bar in this State; and thirty-five years of ex•
pe more in public life, would prove, at least that
be[hail swim capacity ; and that too of a much high
erorder than the capacity of many of those who'
' seek to detest his election. If the fact of his hay
= • iog first studied medicine, and then law, and. his
declining to embrace either profession, proves soy
thing, it only proves that his inclinations prompted
him to seek the sphere of life in which he thought

As the Federal leaders have said much about
The 4ualific allow of Gov. Shunk, and have sought
to cliSparan his merits, it is well that a compari
son should be instituted between him,and the gen
tlemen whom they would elevate to the station
whicti he now tills, with so much honor to hirnsef
and advantage to the State. Gen. Irvin, we are
told, has been a long time connected with the Iron
Rusiness,—hot as a hard working man, laboring
withlhio own hands in the L. dark and dirty mine;"
hut 4p a- wealthy capitalist, who wished to add to
'his store of, wealth. Ile has, therefore, occupied a

no tchool-boy would deny therefore;with a view
to give our readers an idea Of the surprising talents
of Geri. Irvin; and, consequently, the magnitude
of his clairn.s to the elevated , post 'of Governor of
Pennsylvania we are induced to copy the follow
ing letter, tslritteti - by him to a gentleman of Centre
county. It is as follows i•—•
u MILLERSDURO IRON WOR KS, Nov. 143, 1830.
Respected Sir, I takelhe liberty of drop ping
you a'few lines respecting file Election, requesting
of you as , a personal favor to exert yourselves as
much as possible as everything depends upon our
activity. Out prospects-appear good, and if our
friends only turn out—we will give them such a
hearing as they never have met with before in
Centre County. I trust you will spend monday
and tuesday in quietly calling upon our friends and
notifying them to set aside all business and go to
the election on wednesday, and show, it to the
world, that the people of this district still pay
some little regard, to moral character, &c., in the
choice of their public officer—Ll presume you are
aware that although I am not a member of your
society, that I hare friendly feelings towards it,
and at all times have when called upon, contribu
ted to the Erection of meeting houses, &c., and
not long since unsolicited offered mr. henderson a
Lot of ground near Waddles for the erection of a
meeting house—Anything that you can do for me
will be considered as a particular favor by
Your friend JAMES IRVIN."
This letter we have had before us for some
weeks. We would have sooner published it; but
for pruthintial- reasofm We thought that, by possi
bility, it might not be genuine. We knew that,
if it were not,' the truth would soon be elicited;
and therefore concluded to lay it by for awhile.—
Its authenticity was denied; and this has been fol
lowed by a positive affirmation of its truth, from
the editor of the Centre County Democrat and
Journal, who says that it is genuine—'•the original
itself now lying before us, in Gcn. Irviifs own
hand-writug." Thus the matter of its authenticity
is settled.
Now let any man, possessed of ordinary refine
ment of feeling, (whether an educated man or not,)
read this letter; and be will see—what? Not the
retiring, unassuming modesty and delicacy °feed
ing, which ever prevents a truly benevolent man
from blazoning his own generosity to the world;
but the cold calculations of the mere capitalist ,
who counts every dollar he has; and never parts
with one Without striving to ascertain how much
of interest is likely to accrue upon it. We 'sok
upon this, as the most thoroughly revolting trait
is this letter. If Gen. In in had been deprived of
the advantages of early schoolinr, arid had spent
his younger years in hard labor, without the or
porturnty for mental culture, we would attach
very little importance to the mere style, and or
thography of the letter; but situated as he has
bsen, this is altogether inexcusable; and only cal
culated to show, especially when taken in connec „
Lion with other matters referred to, that he values
the dollar above every thing else; and considers ail
else of little consequence, if he can gain that. We
venture the assertion, that there are nut five men
in the country, who have tilled such a stiriori as
Gen. Irvin has filled, who would put forth to the
world an epistle so purely selfish in sentiment, and
so thoroughly puerile in style.

The following just, and at the same time highly
complimentary, tribute to the merits of our worthy
candidate for County Treasurer, is the free-m

convention of Allegheny county, has plaeed"th.s
gentleman in nomination for the responilde post
at County Treasurer. It has . been our happiness
to know him fr om boyhood up; and we•can there
fore congratulate the democracy of Allegheny on
the selection they have made. The first requisite
of Jefferson—honesty and capacity—are emphati
cally his. We.know no man better qualified for
such a post, nor nonynoie worthy and honest. He
is one on whom the piety, can rally with a perlect
confidence that their candidate is worthy a warm

Dome idea may be firmed of the busiM.ss of

much as thirty seven or lhirly-eighl thousand dollars

William Hunter, S. E. 13311 cock
A gentleman who recently arrived here from
Munteiey, had an interview with Gen. Taylor im.
tnetiately before he left. The; General told him
that it was:not his intention to advance on San Luis
Potosi, but that it, was his fixed determination to
resign his command on the Ist SepteMber next
Delta, 2d inst.
The above paragraph takes us somewhat by
surprise. We h.t c authority to be relied upon,
next to the old Geiter..Ps word of mouth, that he
will not under any circumstances resign his coin
maid of the army while the war lasts but that he
will, on the let of September next, ask leave of his
absence for a short time, to pay some attention to
his private affairs, which have beeh much neglect
ed by his long absence in Mexico. There is an
implication in the above that Gen. Taylor has a
choice about advancing on San Luis Potosi, which
'is probably an inadvertency on the part of the
Delta ; for that paper is perfectly aware that Gen.
Taylor cannot move to San Luis Potosi for want
of troops, much to his chagrin and mortification
National of yrs:crday. •
The gentleman who communicated to us the
statement published above, had it from the Gene
ral's Word of mouth" Who is the National's
authority for its denial, if denial it be? We have
row, however, ourselves to make a counterstate
ment to both, that of 'our own and the National.—
Gen. Taylor told a gentleman who conversed with
him four days subsequently to the departure of
Capt. Pike from Monterey, that he had just receiv
ed advices from Washington, by which he was
satisfied that the government was doing all it could
to furnish him with the necessary men and means

Verbal reports state that when they had reached
to within 150 miies of Tampico, they were met
by Gen. Urrea, who detained them as prisoners.
It is also said that Urrea is raising a large force
with which to attack Tampico; and that the
American commander there was making active
preparations for defence.
Three companies, which _were intended to be
transported to Vera Cruz, were detained at Tampi
co, in view of the anticipated attack.
An extra of the New Orleans Times of July 7th
announces the arrival of the steamship Alabama,
which sailed from Vera Cruz on the 2nd.. The
latestAates are from the city of Mexico to the 10th
of June.
Santa Anna, it is said, has demanded a forced
loan of nine millions dollars, and is raising the
money at the point of tse.bayonet.

allention.
' 7 ,Mr. President, I have the honor to introduce
you to, and again ‘aelcorne you among, a happy,
contented, and prosperous population, who will
give you that frank and cordial reception which is
due to your exalted position as an eminent citizen
of a sister State, and as the President of this great
republic
In reply, turning more directly to the mayor,
the President said .
! in you, as one of the soverigns, 1, as the set.-
!cant of the people, bow. Most happy am 1 to
Ihear from you, and•from other sources. of the pros•
perity of all classes in this city, and this section of
the country. I shall be happy to visit, with you,
your factories, and such other establishments as
afford eciOnce of your prosperity."
In comMenting upon this subject, the New York
Esening, Post states the gratify tact, that the
commerce pt that port, which far surpasses that of
any other di the country, furnishes a most flatter
ing evidenee of the favorable operations of the
tariff of 111.16. The result '• (adds the Post) , of
smell months• experience under the new law, cam
pared with the same time tinder the law of 15.12,
gives an increase of nearly half a million in the
re,.enne collected or due, and an increase of more
than six millions in the importation of dutiable
merchandise.
If we now form an estimate of the business of
the year, by the part that has passed, the operation
of the new law will surpass the largest anticipa
tions of its warmest advocates. The largest im
portations of the year generally commence in the
month of July, and continue very heavy until the
approach of winter. These are yet to be received
and added to the statements furnished to the pre
sent time. It will not therefore, he surprising, if
the amount of duties received by the close of
November, added to those which shall accrue from
merchandise in the warehouse on the last day of
that month, shall show an increase of a million of
dollars over tbe revenue of this port during the
last year of the old law. &proportionate increase
in the importation of dutiable merchandise will
make that reach to twelve millions in the same
period:
' , Such is the fruit of the new law in relation to
revenue and importations, at only one port in the
country. When the returns from every port shall
be collected, they wilt present such a fruitful lesson
to the ontion,that the public mind will forever af.
ter, as we trust, become fixed upon the most liberal
and free system of commerce."
1:0 The N. V. Journal of Commerce estimates
the whole value of the donations from the United
States. acknowledged by the Central Relief Com
mittee of Dublin, Ireland, at about $275,000 ; and
also remarks that " if we take into account what
