for Administration bide fair to tie the most extrava
gent and profligate one the country has ever had.
In 'the first place, a new Department - of the gov
ernment has been created at Washington,under
the
- pretence - uf lessening the labors and responaibilities
of the heads of other Bureaar, but in reality it has
been used entirely as an engine to reward hungry
federal politicians, who assisted in practising :the
wicked fraud-that placed ZACHARY TAYLOR in the
Presidential emir. -
Again; we find the administration sustaining by offi
cial patronage, threepresses at the seat of Govern
meat, viz: The Republic, The . National Whig, and'
27ie. Mawr' Intelligenter. The same advertise
merits appear simultanetusly in the 6:damns of the
papers mentioned, whereas, heretofore, a similar
class of advertisemente only appeared in one paper
in NiTaahington. In this manner, the expenditures
for advertising will be trebled, merely for the sake
ofl enriching whig` editors ! • -
And again, three times the number of presses are
- now employed thronghout the country, to do the ad
vertising and printing of the Government that were
employed by former Admininrations, which • will
greatly to the public exPenditures, and thereby
create the necessity for udditiontl taxes in the shape
of high tariffs, to be paid by the honest yeomaniy of
the:country merely for the benefit of a pack Of ly
ing and corrupt Whig editors. -
This advertising has been bestowed, in almost ev-
eryiturtance, merely as a reward for certain politi
cal services, supposed'to have been readered by the
recipients - of the patronage, or •to conciliate and
buy up some grovvling, dissatisfied partisans, without
the slightest claim to moral or political honesty.
Take, for instance, the two government fed papers
in this'city, and what is their claims upon the ad..
inistration
. The Gazette was originally' en . Anti masonic paper
merely, and was celebrated for its coarse and
nant abuse of Mr. PLA.T. For a certain consideta
.
tdon paid by “filleen Whigs," the Editor, Deacon
White, was induced to let Masonry undisturbed,
and be inamediately began to eulogise 151 r. Clay in
language quite as fulsome_aed disgusting as his pre;
vines language had been ..scandalons. andetbusive.--
The Deacon's - sycophancy towards - Mr. Clay knew
no bounds, and was continued uninterruptedly until
nitirDelt: Taylor's nomination. In fact, for some
dap alter .that= nomination, the Gazette refused to
salad the Taylor Banner to its mast head, and them
by offered an insult to the Whig National Conven
tion, which .nominated the old chief. 'And now,
this Gazette is gorged with government patronage,
and the Deacon thinks that Gen: Taylor is the coin=
teasence ofPerfection—a patriot without a parallel—
a veritable “Second Washington ' .
The too, is lumbering with official'pit-
tonne, and Greasy in becoming sleek and fat as .a
peanut from the crumbs-which fall from the F.xecn
tive table! 'Now, what has this old sinner done, to
make him a favorite at Washington t He *rote and
published a most scandalous article in relation to
Gen. Taylor's bloodhound soldiers in Florida, and
said things respecting the General that no Democrat
would have been base enough to utter about any
man: - Bat Greasy is the pet
,of Gov. Johnston, and
it is said that the Govereor has interfered in behalf
of his Puffer General in this city. The Daily Amer
iranwe are informed, has a; circulation of between
200 and 300 copies ; and yet Gen. Taylor publishes

f rom the lump, has been rc punished' , by Gen. Tay
lor, nd *considered unworthy of public patronage,
although its Editor visited Washington in propria
'swears, and:.actually held a .cenversation with the
General—on the subject of the Tariff.'
We have thus shown to the puhlie the manner in
Which the present federal whig admiriistra tion have
commenced squandering the people's money; by
baying up, through extravagant and unusual ' adver
tising, the support of a lot of corrupt editors. And

We observe that Gen. Taylor , ' new organ at

President Taylor and Walker's Amend
Mr. Walker 11. S. Senator from 'Wisconsin, has
been extensively abused by the whig and free soil
papers for , offering his amendment to the civil and
diplomatic bill, by Which they contend slavery
might have been extended to California. The as.
sertion of Mr. Giddings, of Ohio, that President
Taylor endeavored to influence congressmen to
adopt that amendment, has been roundly denied
by the northern Whigs. The following notes are
published by Mr. Giddings in support of his posi
tion. The first is from a whig senapr from Penn,

i.Gentlemen Representatives —The Constitution

the country.
conform with , the obligation, which allows me,
while submitting to you the troth to all its simplici
q, and faits so fir u they are instinctive, to speak
to you both of my past conduct and of my &tura*
tentions.
~ My election to the first magistracy of the Itepirb
lic was the cause of hopes t all of which could not as
yet be realized.
~T o the very day when you are assembled within
these walls the Executive power has eaten:payed - ita
constitutional prerogative to their full extent. In
such a position it was difficult to take a very decided
course.
"Nevertheless,' remain faithful to, my manifesto:l.
"Indeed ,to what have I pledged myself In accepl
ing the suffrages of the nation?
"To defend society, so audatioesly, assailed.
"To secure a wise, great,and honorable RePublic
• "To protect family, religioir, and property. •
'.To promote all possible imprcvement and
, ,
"To protect the press againstcaprice and lici3n
tiousness.
' , To lessen the abuses of centralization.
..To efface the marks of our civil .discords
"And, finally, with respect to foreign relations, to
adopt a policy alike without arrogance and without
weaknesa.
"Times and circumstances have novas yet allow
ed me to fulfil all these engagements, but important
steps have neverthelenbeen taken in this direction.
"The first duty of the Government was to direct
all its efforts to the re-establishment of that confi
dence which could not bo complete without a defi•
nite power. The want of security in the present,
and of faith in the future, destroys credit, stops labor,
diminishes revenue both public and private, renders
loans impossible, and dries up the sources of wealth.
"Before confidence was restored it would have
been as vain to have recourse to all the systems of
credit as to the most revolutionary expedients
Abundance could not be created when fear and dis
trust of the morrow had produced sterility.
"Even our foreign policy could not tie° to the le
vel.of our former power, excepting when we had re
stored at home that which constitutes the strength
of nations—viz: the union of the citizens and finan
cial prosperity. •
"To attain this end the Government "could only
follow a firm and resolute course, showing to all
that, without departing from the prescriptions of law,
it would adopt the most •energatic measure* for the
security of society.
"It generally endeavored, therefore, to re-estab
lish the weight of authority by employing all its care
in calling to public office those men whom it judged
most honorable and competent without regard to
their political antecedents.
"Lest the public mind should be disturbed, the
' Government has deferred the project of liberating the
victims of our civil discords. At the very word 'am
nesty, public opinion is moved in different directions
and it has feared the return of fresh troubles. Nev
-Whalen, I have used clemency where it has not
boon misplaced.
"The prison are already open for Ib7o convicts
of June, and the other* will soon be set at liberty,
without any cause of apprehension to society. As
for those who aro condemned to the galley, by coun
cils of war, some of them, who can be put on the
game footing as political criminals, shall be placed
in,penitentiarin.
"The course we have adopted soon restored con
fidence; business gained a new impulse; the *nip
hanks were filled. Since the end ofJanuary the pro
duce of the indirect contributions and the custenui
has incessantly increased; and in April was nearly
equal to that of the most prosperous times. The
Treasury has regained the credit of which it stood
in need, and the city of Paris has been able to con•
tract a loan almost at par—a negotiation which re
minds us of the time when confidence was most se
curely established. The petitions sanctioning
joint.stack companies teociete Anonymesl have been
multiplied; the number of patents has increased
from day to day; the price of the tames, the sale of
alt those values which have suffered a heavy depre.
elation have gradually improved; and, finally, in all
the manufacturing towns work ha■ recommenced,
and foreigners have again visited Feria, This felici
tous movement, interrupted for a moment by the agi
tation of the elections, will resume its coarse through
the ald which you will atTortl to the Government."

FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
It is the destiny of France to shake the world
whenever she mores, and to calm it when she be
comes quiet. Europe 'gaits repose or our agitation
at our door. This respourthiliry imposes important
duties upon us; it dominates over our situation.
ig After the days of February the recoil of our tor
volution was felt from the Baltic to the Mediterran
ean, and my predecessors in office refined to throw
France into a war of which they could notice the
end. They were right.
.4 The state of civilization in Europe allows us to
deliver one's country to the bawds ore generator:4-
lision only when a man has neceasity and plaice us.
mistakeably on his aide. A secondaiy Influence, a
more or less specious political reason are mot enough;
a nation like ours, if it does engage in a gigantic
struggle, ought to be able to justify, in the eyes of
the world, either the magnitude of its success or that
of its misfortunes.
When I came to power, great questions were
pending throughout Europe. On the hanks' of the
Rhine, beyond the A fps, from Denmark to Italy, we
had our interests to protect, our influence to exert.
But did this interest and this Influence for being en+
ergetically upheld merit the chances of A European
conflagration t The question thus put was easily
answered.
From this point of view France did, in all the
foreign affairs which we are going to review, all that
she could do for the interest of het allies, without,
nevertheless, appealing to the last argument ofGov
ernments, viz: the force of arms.
«A year ago Sicily had risen against the King of
Naples. England and France interfered with their
fleets to stop the hostilities, which became still more
cruel ; and though England wan more interetted in
the question than even France, the two- admirals
united to obtain from King Ferdinand an amnesty
or the Sicilians and n constitution which guaranteed
their legislative and administrative independence.—
They refused. The admirals quitted Sicily, being
forced to abandon their, mediation, and soon after
wards the war began. The very people which had
refused to accept favorable conditions, was torced to
an unconditional surrender.
" A seriona war broke out in the North of Italy,
and when the Piedroontese. army advanced to the
Mincio, it was thought, though but..fer one moment
only, that Lombardy would reconquer , its indepen
dence. Discord proved fatal to that hope, and the .
King of Piedmont was obliged to retreat within his
own States.
" At the time ofmy election the mediation el Zog-'
land and France had been accepted by the beliget-4
ant parties. The only thing to be effected was to.
get the least disadvantageous conditions for Pied
wont. Our part was traced out, and - even prescrib
ed. To refuse compliance was the inflaming aEu
ropean war. Though Austria did not send, any
agent to Brussels, the place which was designated
for the conference—the French Government coun-I
Belled Piedmont to resist the movement which was ,
hurrying her into war, and not to recommence a too
unequal conflict.
Yoar friend,
J. COOPER
" This counsel was not followed, as you know.—
And after a new defeat the King of Sardinia conclu
ded directly with Austria a fresh armistice.
" Although France was not-responsible for this
conduct, shocould not permit Piedmont to be crush
ed, and from the tribune itself the Government de.
dared that it would maintain the integrity and terri.
tory of a country Which covers one portion of our
frontiers. On the one side it.used its best endeavors
to moderate the of Austria, when she
demanded an indemnity for the war which appeared
to her exorbitant. On the other hand it engaged
Piedmont to make just sacrifices in order to obtain
an honorable peace. We have every reason to be-,
lieve that we shall be euccessfal in this work of re
conciliation.
" While these events were passing in the north of
Italy, new commotion, arose in the centre of the Pe-,
ninsula to complicate the question. •
"In Tuscanny the Grand Duke had quitted his
States, In Rome a revolution had been accomplish.;
ed which had profoundly agitated the Catholic and
liberal world; in effect, for two years one bad been.
in the habit of seeing on the ;Icily Throne a Ponti,
who took an initiative in useful reforms,
and whose'
name, repeated in hymns of gratitude from one end
of Italy to the other,- was a symbol of liberty and e
pledge of every hope. It was then we heard cka:
sudden with astonishment, that this sovereign= 7b`
lately the idol of his people, had been compelled to
iv:fligititely from the capital.
"So it was the acleef aggression whieh enforced
Pius IX. to quitßome, appeared in the eyes of Eu
repe to be rather a conspiracy than' themovementri
of a people which could not have palled in one mo.

silent from the most•lively enthusiasm to the most
afflicting ingratitude.
" Whet: we mere thus in a plUitiOil to .which ex
plination Was neceisary, are had but one - of, three
courses to adopt
Either, to oppose ourselves by arms to every
species Of intervention, in,which case it e'vaine to a
rupture with all Calholic Europe; in the sole inter
est of the Roman Republic, which we had not re
cognised :
- 44 Or, to allow the Three Powers, in colifion, to
to-establish, according to theirinclination, and with
out lintitation, the authority of the Pope :
fich, lastlY, to exercise a dime' and independent
action by our own spontaneous movement.
, t The government of the Republic adopted this
last course. • '
It seemed to us.IIII easy thing to make the Ro
mans understand that, pressed as they were on ev
ery side, their only chance of safety lay in us, that,
if our pittance brought about as one of its results
the return of Fun IX, the Sovereirn, faithful to his
own character,Vould bring back with him -recon
ciliation.-and liberty; that, once at Rome, we guar•
anteed the integrity of the territory, by depriving
Austria of every pretext for entering Romagna.
We might even hope, that.our flag once raised with
out contest in the midst of Italy, would have extend
ed its protetting influence over the whole of the
Peninsula, none of whose sorrows can, be to us a
Matter of indifference. . •
_ .
w The expedition to Mita Vecchia was then re
solved upon in concert with the National Assembly,
'which voted the necessary credits. It had every
'chance of success; zai the advice-:received'were
unanimous in announcing that at Rome, with the
exception of a little knot of persons, who bad seiz
ed the authority for themselves, the majority of the
population awaited our arrival with impatience.
Common sense might have led ono to expect that
this was to, for the choice could scarcely be a doubt
ful one between our intervention and that of the
other Power'.
train of unhappy circumstances led to a dif
ferent result; our expeditionary force, of alander
amount in point of numbers, for a serious resistance
was not foreseen, disembarked at Civics Vecchia,
and the Government bad received intelligence that,
could it have arrived at Rome the same day, the
gates of the city would have been joyfully unclosed
for its entrance. But, whilst General Oudinot was
notifying his arrival to the Government of Rome,
Garibaldi was entering in at the head of a band
formed of refugees from all parts of Italy mad even
from the rest of Europe, end his presence, as may
be conceived, gave n sudden reinforcement to the
party who went for resistance.
Aprd 6,000 of. our soldiers pre
sented themselves before the walls of Rome. They
were received by musketry; some few even, who
bad been drawn into a trap, were made prisoners.
This unlooked-for struggle without making any
change in the final aim of our enterprise, has para
lysed our beneficent lineations and rendered abor.
five the efforts of our negotiators.
a In the north of Germany so insurrection bad
compromised the independence of a slate, one of
the most ancient and the most faithful of the allies
of France. Denmark saw the population of Schles
wig and Holstein were against her, although they
recognized at the same time the authority of the
Sovereign actually reigning. The Central Govern
ment of Germany deemed it its duty to decree the
incorporation of Schleswig with the Confederation,
beefuee a great part of the people wore of German
vane.
a This measure bulatwome the reason of a most
determined war. England has offered her media
tion, which has been accepted. France, Russia,
and Sweden barn shown themselves disposed to
*import Denmark.
a Negotiations opened some months back estab
fished the conclusion that Schleswig was to form,
under the authority of Denmark, a separate State.
But, vben-the principle had been once admitted,
they could not come to an understanding upon the
consequence* which fheuld have been deduced from
it, and hostilities recommenced. The efforts of the

Tan Ksnrt csr Itrucorran,—The papers lut

M. Clay was not dead at the latest accounts, and tha t
some hopes ware entertained of his recovery. The
Louisville Jamul says:
"A gentleman who arrived here in the stage last
evening from Lexington, says that it was thought at
the last dates that Mr. Clay might recover, bat that
Mr. Turner could not recover. Tho latter was a
member of the last Legislature.
"The affair is said to have occurred at a public
meeting. Mr. Clay was making an emancipation
speich and was called a liar by some one in the
crowd. On coming down from the stand, he de
manded wbo bad itnultod bim. Mr. Turner avowed
the language and the bloody encounter ensued. We
have heard that' they snapped their pistols simulta
neously neither of which was discharged. and that
they then drew knives and struck simultaneously,
Mr. Clay, ripping open Mr. Turner's abdomen, and
Mr. Turner stabbing Mr. Clay in the breast."

What Constitutes Dentoeratin Rears...
While out political friends in the di ff erent coun t ;
tie's are _selecting their candidates :for the next
State. Legislature the Democratic press iihruhl es
teem itri. pleasure, at it is a solemn dutir to remind
the people of the importanceof selecting good men.
A Democratic representative should be intelligent
conscientious, and devoted, above all things, to
Democratic principles. He -should regard his hon
or and his reputation as intimately identified - with.
a faithful and consistent discharge of duty. fie
should never, even for a moment, allow:a single
personal feeling.to control his vote; but he'should
decide, in all cases, with an eye single to the public
interests and the public wish, He-ahould never
hesitate to say No to the requests Of his friends ;
who, presuming uponintimacy, might require him
to do what did not square with his obligations to the
right. But in order to secure such a representa
tive, the utmost vigilance should be' exercised to
observe the deportment of the candidate in, private
and to weigh well that estimate placed upon him
by his fellow citizens. If he should be a modest,
prudent, and conscientious man—just in all his
dealings—active in his business operations—agoo4
husband,' father or son—ambitions to inform his
mind—and ever ready to take a part, in all emery
prises intended for the public good,—you can se.
lect him without any fear of the consequences.—
He will do honor to you; and you. will receive him
with open arms on his return front the Legislature.
When we reflect how much evil a bad represen
tative may do, too much importance cannot be
given to the duty of placing unexceptionable can
didates in nomination. ,
Horrid Murder.
We have just been informed by a gentleman
from Mt. Sterling, Montgomery county, my., of a
most horrid and revolting murder, which took
place at a tavern in that county, on Friday last,
between the hours of 10 A. M. and 3 P. M., on the,
person of Mrs. J.K. Foster. It appears that the
notorious fiend entered the dwelling of Mrs. F.,
deliberately took a rope near by, and tied it four
or five tithes around her neck, to 'aid him. in his
infamous purpose of committing a shocking of- .
fence upon her person. Ere he completed his dia.'
bolical purpose, he ( for she, it is evident, was be
coming an over-match for him,) pulled the ends
of the rope, causing almost instant death by
strangulation. From the circumstences and ap
peanince of Mrs. F., when seen, there must have
been a terrible scuffle for the mastery, but, she, a
woman,, by undue advantage of a brutal fiend, fell 1
Mr. F. at the time, a few miles distant, perform
ing military duty, returned about 3 o'clock. lie
left his wife about 9 o'clock in the morrring,
cheerful and happy ; he beheld on his return the
pride of his heart embraced in the armsof death!
What a sight! The murderer before leaving, was
not satisfied until he had rifled the house of all
the money, about $l5, a quantity of sugar, three
or four bottles of liquor, a fine accordeon, a gun,
and some other small articles. Great excitement
prevails in the neighborhood for the arreatof this
murderer, ravisher, thief and nefarious fiend. Some
forty persons started out in pursuit of him. Be
wide awake. We sincerely trust that ere this he
has bean taken.--C'rearitutri Commercial.
