SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 15, IS.IB
VOICE OF ALLEGIIIGNT COUNTY!
- FOR PRESIDENT,
JAMES BUCHANAN,
Subject to the decision of the National Convention
Hon. Moses Hampton.
In consequence of the strong current of mdigna
firm that has been setting towards the seat of goV
ernment for some days past, this gentleman has I
deemed it necessary to say a word to his constitu
ents, in connexion With the position which has
heetinsstgned to him, on the subject of the Mext
-can- war. The position occupied bi Mr. Hampton,
Moat he an awkward and_an embarrasing one; and
it would seem that he scarcely can determine what ,
to do. On the one side, a sense: of patriotism, and
duty, to his country, prompts him to vote with he
friends of his country; and on the other, the threats
and denunciations of "the advocates Of Mexico,"
with whom he has been politically identified, dete;
'him from taking the plain and bold (even if
rugged) path of duty. But we will let him speak
; for himself; and therefore give his letter, entire,
as published in the Pittsburgh Gazette, It o IR as
follows :
Horse OP REPRESENTATIVES,
WASIIINGTON, Jan. 10, 1845. 5
E. BROOKS, Esq Sir:—lt appears from an article!
t in your paper of Saturday last, that some of my
friends at home are laboring under a misapprehen
sion in regard to the object I have in view, in cast
. ang my vote against Mr. Ashmun's amendment of
die amendment of Mr. Henley to the resolution of
- thanks to Gen. Taylor. Mr. Ashman's amendment
declared the war to have been unnecessarily and
• unconstitutionally commenced by the President of
the United States.
When the resolution of thanks was offered, and
Mr. Henley offered his amendment, evidently to
embarrass and defeat the Resolution, as i kad been
done at - the last session, I at once formed and ex
pressed my determination to vote against 'WINK'
mendments whatsoever, and to pass the Resolution
as it was offered. Mr. Ashmun's amendment was
immediately offered, and the yeas and nays instant,
ly called; my name being early on the list, I voted
-as I bad resolved to vote. against this and all
mendmente, calVnlated to embarras or defeat the
resolution. Had the proposition of Mr. Ashman
been unconnected with the Resolution of thanks ti
Gen. Taylor, my course would have been different.
I certainly should not have voted against it.
ery truly yours, Ric..
M. HAMPTON.
In relation to this vote against the amendment
of Mr. Ashman, from its very nature, we cannot
• see how Mr. Hampton could havg escaped a dilem.
• me, unless he should have found it convenient to be
absent, at the time when a vote was being taken
upon it. The proposition was such a one, as could
only drive from the support of the resolution of
thanks, those who were determiste‘got to vote
what they believed to be a lie. bt - eAra'nAll•
• he would certainly not have voted against:illy* :
ple proposition of that gentleman)—could brie
pursued but one of two other courses—vote for
the proposition, (and thus declare that the war
was an unconstitutional act) or absent himself
- from the House, when others were voting upon it.
Mr. Hampton has not said that he would have vo
- ted for Mr. Ashmun's amendment. He merely
says "I should certainly not have voted against
it." This leaves him an opportunity fur further
explanation,oand he may, in another letter, possi
bly, say, that he would have voted for it. We are
inclined to believe, however, from the present feel
ing among the Whigs, and the manner in which
they speak of this letter, that not only one, but
t• marry more, letters of explanation, will be neces
sary, in order to convince his former friends, that
Its is not; as they are pleased to style him, "a trai
tor."
Mr. Hampton, should recollect, that there is
but one course for a politician to pursue—but one
course, in short, for any man, who would pre
serve a reputation,—and tbaris, to walk directly
forward, in the plain path of conscientious duty.
The man who does this may, at times, be deserted
by those who profess to be his friends ; but he is
likely to find himself surrounded by friends at
last ; or, if not, he will at least enjoy the heart
felt satisfaction, of knowing, that his course is
;approved by (tohim,) the highest of all earthly
tribunals—an enlightened judgment.
We have thought that Mr. Hampton intended
to pursue such a course, on the war question, as
would reflect honor on himself. We are not
:_Prepared to believe that he will pursue any other
"course. We do not expect him to vote that the'
- war is just, and that it could not have been hon 2
,orably avoided. The reasons for satisfying his
:inind on this point, have not, we have been led
_to believe, been presented to him. Therefore, we
would not ask or crimet him thus to vote. But
- we can and do expect him, to waive 'the discus
:sion of these points, while we are engaged in a
war; and vote to sustain his country. When
,peace shall once more have visited our otherwise
happy country, then let all, who would condemn
the active agents in bringing about the war, be
heard. Then let that public opinion, to which
'We all look for approval, pronounce upon the
merits of the public agents, who are charged with
hiving brought us to this condition. We believe
,that we could not have honorably escaped the'
war; but we are not disposed to question the
patriotisrin of those who think otherwise when
they prove by their ads, that they mean to sus.
,tain the cause of their country,even at the risk of
being proclaimed liurs and traitors by those whose
,political fortunes they have been sustaining.
At a recent meeting of the Federalists'of Blair
'county, the following resolutions were unanimom
ly adopted :
Resolved, That we declare General' WINTTELD
SbuTT, of New Jersey our decided choice for the
'office of President of the United States, and that
we eanievly recommend his nomination by the
National. Convention as the man most certainly
'available; and.eminently qualified and deserving
; of this high distinction.
Resolved, That beyond all peradventure, under
the Scorr. BASHER, Pennsylvania can be redeem
regenerated, and disenthralled.
Conferees were appointed, pledged to choose a
delegate to a National Convintion who would sus
tain the nomination of Gen. Scott.

with the Federal editorijlwho are urging the no- I

are exceedingly anxionsithat the Democracy shall
say something harsh egaiinst 'Rough and Ready,'
so as to give them amicip i portunity to enlist the
the sympathies of thelneOPle in his behalf. Gene

They have not the leasttove for him personally,

SCIENTIFIC ASSOClA4loN. — thigCiety 4,1 E
been organized under fa ilorable auspiees. The
enterprising movers in th'e matter are sanguine of
complete success in carrying out the great and
important objects they have in view.. We notice
among the names of those connected with it, those'
of some of our most dif•tinguisbed Pennsylvanians,
who have already added to the lustre of the State,
by their labors in tie h field of science. The citizens
of Western Pennsylvania, who properly appreciate
the purposes of those gentlemen, who struggle for
the public good, and not for private gain, will
surely afford all necessary support and encourage
meta. Not one person is them in the community,
who is not interested in the progress made by the
scientific men who have organized for more efficient
action. But are not Prof. Stephens, Dr. King,
Prof. Jackson, and their co laborers, forgetful of a
most import:mt branch of science,—one that
(should claim more of the attention of our learned
men than any other? The discoveries in chemistry,
geology, , are of but trifling value, when not
applied to the culture of the earth. Should the
association deem it practicable, will they not direct
their energies to this department? What higher
motive could impel therri to Atkin, than that of
increasing the value of our annual' harvests--
bringing richer fruits in greater abundance from
the soil.
To do this, a model farm, and an agricultural
college, should be established. We believe there is
such an institution in the eastern part of the State,
establisacd by the munificence of one man. In
New York city, strong exertions are now being
made to build one upon a grand scale. They will
be aid etl by legislative action, and the subscriptions
and labors of citizens.
An undertaking of this kind, belongs to the'
Association which has just been formed in this

Tit E vra lc at.s.—We learn from a friend tab()
has just arrived from a Southern journey, tliat ! ,
Manager Porter seemed to be doing a fine busi.ll
near in Vicksburgh. The houses were well fillek
with, the le .ding people of the city. Mr. (100'1
was with him; the company about the swim 4
as closed the Pittsburgh Theatre. Mr. and Mills
Wemyes, Barney Williams, and others of note:::
performed star engagements. We have no infq
naation as to the closing; but expect the old Heti
ernor back before many weeks. He is dae - iiyi
March, if we recollect aright. What may be his
prospects in our city during his spring scas4,
we eon have no idea. If his exertions are 146:
perly apprecieted, success will be certain. Bit
then there is danger that the drama is again 41r
the decline. It seems to 'tgo down'' once eve 4
ten years. About IS:I7—S, actors were drivel so
the walls in this city—and we recollect a fete'
who were driven within the walls,—for imprisi*-
ment (or debt laws trail not been repealed at tl4t
time. In New York there seems to be this "do1:91-
ward tendency, as the merchants say. At the
Broadway, the prices have been reduced tc,'oije
half, which is a bad sign. The Mirror, ar7!lie: 7 •
erical paper, speaks very doletully on the stibject.
We quote from it:
EsioAnwas A aressmaturs.—The only pieces :of
t ,
amusement in the city worth naming, a to, be
found in Broad day. Whatever is instru tivE or
entertaining, amusing or profitable, in th slitte
of a public e xhibition, will here be found. I There
is a theatre in Chatham street, the resortA dissia
lute newsboys. and another in the Bowery mu;th
i t
patronized by butcher's apprentices, and th t ctias
of people who eat roasted peanuts and sous al pies
feet in public. But the only true places of stnutte
ment are to be found in Broadway. Jr i s i little
,\
remarkable, that the only place of public a mtge..
ment which is not p ktrotiized by the plc surp
seekers of the city, is the, theatre. There is hO
necessity for overzealous divines to preach ser As
against theatre going, for the race of theatre airs
has becotnenearly extinct. Every place of p blie ,
resort is crowded, but the theatre is deserted. 01,1
Mann, in the lobby of his theatre, looks like itiali
who walks alone, some banquet hall deserted.' , n
Saturday night, the mlgnifi:ent Broadway focal •,
with its superb lobbies and. dressing, rooms, ,
brilliant lights, rich crimson curtains. luxurious
sofas, velvet seats, a new comedy by the mu4h
sought after Sam Lover, with the author in, tire
principal character; a patr:olic afterpiece, toat:it
being the anniversary of the pet battle of Ow
Orleans, could not draw an audience. Abort a
dozen individuals were seated here end there imtlie
boxe , •, and probably as many more in the Oh
queue. It was truly n disheartening spectacle I'OF
the lover of the drama to Fee such a slender Au.
dience in this noble theatre, which has been biiilt
and decorated in so costly a manner by the lib4i-al
and enterprising proprietor. The friends ofthe
theatre, if there
.be any, should make it a poini, to
patronize this beautiful house, and reward ((re
proprieror for his public spirit and liberality.

MIL MATTERS.
ANDREW ' SALOON.—There was a fine audic4e
on Thursday evening; and the entertainments wire
deserving of much more. The old songs of ,the
Troupe were given in excellent taste and. spirit;
but the German portion of the proceedings tere
really'amusing and delightful. The ladies id the
German costumes look very well, and of co4f•se,
sung sweetly. The audience was pleased, rind
would be gratified with a few more concerts of the
same sort.
This evening, we anticipate a perfect jair÷tfor
we beard of crowds who don't intend goinedny
where else. Andrews has been: selling tickets
during the entire week for this evening. ;the
printing press will be a great novelty doubtOSs.
We shall not examine it very minutely, having
already seen several in operation; but there are
those who have never witnessed the phenoinentin,
who will be induced to call and see how the Prize
Song is to be worked oft .
BALt.s.—The lovers of dancing—and who iis,,no
-- will find abundant opportunity to indulge diiir
ing the coming three or four weeks. We weer
about to enumerate the Soirees that have already
been announced, but fear, we should fail in gi4ng
more than half. The first - talked of is White's,
which will be a grand one, we know. The Unipn
Benevolent Society ot Journeymc4; Carpenters dye

Company are'preparing for their,. second annWal,
Soiree, and they" too wiil do the thing 6014) ior
they have had experience. We understinqed
the Vigilant Independent Rose Reel intend re,gal
ing their friends in the same manner, add iflltiY
attempt it, the affair will be good. There:lre
others of the same sort promised, and we ' ere
confident all will be well sustained by the yoelfg
men of the city who think there is no haraqiii

()PINIONS or OFFICERS AS TO THE WAR.—The
Washington Union, of Saturday evening, says:
"Accounts are pouring in upon us from the army,
respecting the opinion of the officers upon the best
mode of carrying on the war, and obtaining ;prompt
and honorable peace. We have conversed with
some of the officers who have arrived in this city.
There seems to he little diversity of opinion upon
this question. We understand from an intelligent
officer, who has arrived this week from the city of
Mexico, that he does not know an officer, who,
whatever may be his desire to return to the United
States, hesitates to say that to withdraw the troops
from Mexico, or to occupy a defensive line, would
be the most direct means of prolonging the war.
The only plan fur obtaining an early peace is a vigor
ous prosecution of the war. Wo further learn, that
the officers of the army, of whatever party, with great
unanimity, attribute the prolongation of the war to
our party feuds ; that the sentiments of the opposi
tion press and leaders are greedily promulgated by
the Mexi - Cans among the people there ; and the im
pression' prevails among them, that a majority o ff
the people of the United States are opposed to the'
war, and determined to bring it to a close. The of-
cer further remarked, thatif Congress had voted the
necessary supplies ns soon as possible after its meet
ing, it would have had the happiest effect in Mexico,
,and in all probability would have secured an early
\eace.".
On Friday afternoon, the 14th inst., Mrs. Ntutr

Medicine as Sarsaparilla, and who wishes a good
preparation, put up in generous sized bottles at
one dollar each, read the advertisement in another
column, of DR. WOOD'S SARSAPARILLA AND
WILD CHERRY, a compound of two of the most
valuable medicines in the Materia Medica. As a
