After:a moment's hesitation, La. Ronde replied,

on you.. Will you promise upod the honor of
military men, to kee p ? secret what I tell you ?"
"certainly, certainly, provided it does not in

joint response of his majesty's officers, captain L.
andlieutenant We will 'speak iniinediritely
to our general orrtliis subject, and meet you here
to-morrow at — one o'clock."
.
With this understanding, the parties separated.
_ • Next day, captain L. and colonel T. met La Ronde,
and arrangements were made for sending out a
feconnoiteriiig party, under the guidance of oar
heto t In due time, La Ronde was at his port.
Sopa his majesty's - alcrop of observation picked
_'him up, and._they sailed for lake. Borgne. This
_lake,'as the geographer knows, !aye to the south
east of New Orleans. On entering the lake, they
sailed around for one or two days; finally, they
- hit on the bayou called. Bienventr. This is an
'obscure pass, and WO, at that time, known to - but
few. Among these, La Ronde appears to have
been. classed. -Its banks svere'occupied by fisher-
mans' hats.' ; These men being destituteof princi
ple and patriotism, were easily bribed by-British
gold to exert themselv es in fever of the invader;
Every needed discovery and arrangement being
suede the expedition returned. •
The report, by , the commander of this expe
dition,captairtL., prayed acceptible to the .British
general; anctit was determined upon by the staff
to land thearmy at the point, and proceed over
land to New Orleans. The main division •of the
army to be preceded by a large scoutingforce un
der General Keane. The fleet to pass into lake
.Ponchartrain, after landing the army, for the put
pose of misleading the Americans. Such was the
plan' of attack formed and made oat by the great
est of Great Britaini officer; and on information
obtained through one who" was ready to sell his
country, his soul and his family's honor, to satisfy
his depraved passions. •
• •
General Jackson having arrived from his Pen
, imolai expedition, took charge:of the heterogeniu
raciivirlass, which was gathered for the defence of
_ • the city of Ne.w Orleans. After casting his eye
around him, he began with his customary energy
to prepare for offering resistance to . : thethreatened
invasion. Aare Ponchartrain was first examined,
--_ and its various passes obstructed ; next, lake
Borgne claimed the . General's attention. A differ
.. "- encriSf_ opinioh sprung up_in his staff, in regard to
baynu Bienvenn, which would almost leall to 'the
conclusion that some were aware of the British
plans: Be this as.it may, some thought ituseless
to spend time and to waste force in obstructing
- this pass but, the General, following hie own
opinion of what was a waste of time and force,
- - sent a Smith detachment for the purpose of.ob
•
atructing and guarding it. _This little band, on
,their arrival at the • bayou, was persuaded by the
bribed fishermen that it was useless to dosnything
- --inalrinch as the British had , examined it careful
ly,.-and pronounced it'impassible.
This information satisfied the mind of the com
mender, and selecting a: leasant location, he en-
camped and took his ease.
• '
On the 22d of December, about midnight, the
scouting detachment of the British 'army, under
the direction of 4 Ronde, entered the bayou, lan
ded in silence, surprised the American force, and
proceeded to General Villere's—where they arriv-
ed in the afternoon of the 23d. Surrounding the
house they took all in it prisoners. The G eneral .
fortunately:had left an hour before their arrival.
Caroline was very much frightened at the sudden
appearance of the enemy. She was in the parlor
'when they rushed in, and falling on the cote, she •
lay panting' like a fawn overcome by a pack of
hounds... 'While in this situation, enduring, the.
merciless jeering,s of the richly diessed.officere,
La . Ronde sprang in, threw.himself at the feet of
General Keane, and begged for her life. This re
quest, as may be supposed from their stipulations,
was epeeedily granted, and Henry led Caroline to
her room. 'When by themselves, faroline's fear
was somewhat overcome, and her excitement re
moved. Henry was by her side; his arm surroun
&cf. her waist, and her head rested on his shoulder.
After a few minutes silence, she raised her pale

These fond questions confused the callous La

time I will tell you all."

BY MORTLMER
Resolved, That shinplasters, issued by municipal
or other corporations, we denounce as false repre',
aentatives of money, by which labor is defrauded
of its just reward. And all schemes of relief is
sues, being but printed confessious of insolvency,
put upon the people as current equivalents for in
dustry, we regard as worthy of signal condemna
tion. The Democratic party, if it is honest, con
fesses its poverty, but repudiates rags.
Such is the bold, beautiful, honest and fearless
language of , the Demeeratio party of Pennsylvania.
If there ever was an evil more horrible than the
'plagues sent by the Almighty to punish the cruel
and tyranical Ring of Egypt for his persecution of
the Israelites, that evil is the Shinplaster system,
which has been tolerated so long in this country.
Sztterersarzas ARE ILLEGAL.—They are expressly
prohibited by the Constitution of the United States,
which declares thatno state shall emit bills of cred
it, or make any thing but gold and silver a legal ten.
der far the payment of debts. If a state, therefore,
permits any of its citizens or corporate bodies to
issue promissory notes to be circulated as money, it'
,is making itself a party to such illegal issues. The
Shinplasters issued by the County of Allegheny, and
the Cities of Pittsburgh and Allegheny, are a direct'
and positive violation of the act of the Assembly of
'Pennsylvania; and if the Prosecuting Attorney end ,
Judges of our Courts would do their duty, the per
sons who issued the trash would long since have
been prosecuted 'and punished for the flagrant wrong
they have done to the community,
SHINPLASTEIIII ARE hflifORAL.--Arly art that is i 1
legal must be immoral. Shinplastera are " confes
sions of insolvency: , The bodies issuing them ad
mit that they are unable to pay what they owe; but
to maintain their credit they issue promissory notes
to circulates, money, thus making themselves lend
era Instead of borrowers I Such acts are - grossly
and palpably immoral. When corporations are per,
milted to engage in a business so infamous, it is not
strange that private individuals are sometimes tempt
ed to overstep the bounds of prudence. Honesty is
always the best policy.
Suritm.sercas ARE Panunitsrarr.—They contain
a falsehood - upon their very face. They are "put
upon the people as current equivilents for industry,,,
but in reality they swindle the honest laborer out or 1
his just earnings. No necessity can be pleaded 'as
an excuse for the issue of Shinplasters. No really
honest man Or corporation will engage in the busi
ness, under any circumstances. When the credit of
a corporotion becomes so low that it'cannot pay its
cease
creditors
contr in money, it
debtsshould that moment positively
g actin., especially large ones.
The entire Shinplaster system is closely allied to
whiggery; indeed the whip are the authors of the
CSystem. The whig party have had the exclusive
ontrol of the financial affairs of this county nod the ;
two cities for several sears; and it cannot be denied
1 1
that all the odium and responsibility of the fraudu- i
lent and illegal issue of Shinplasters rests upon the
Shoulders of that party. Prom this ponition the
whigs cannot escape. The Democracy upon all
proper occasions have expressed their opposition to
the Shinplaster swindle; and now in State Conven
vention, they have solemnly repudiated these whig
rags. The Democracy are In favor of paying the
honest laborer in the Constitutional Currency, Gold
and Silver. The workingmen of Pennsylvania;and
especially of Allegheny county, therefore should I
have nothing to do with whiggery, if they wish to see
the Shinplaster system put down. The Democracy
are pledged to oppose it, and they will make good
their word.
There is enough Gold and. Silver in the country to
meet all the ordinary demands of the people. In
the comae or the present year immense amounts or
gold v4ll be breught from the inexhaustible mines of
California; whielv will be coined at the mint, and
get into circulation amongst the people. This will
do away with every excuse for the issue of-Shinplas•
ftem. But shonla the whigs hereafter attempt to
orce. this vile trash upon the laboring men, we
would advise.them to resist the iniPosition manfully
and utterly refuse to touch the ttancleairthin

These wagons will average about four yoke 3o

The number of men to the wagon is about an aver
age of four—making, in all, 17,900.
GRAND ToraL.--4,350 wagons, 17,900 men, 38,-
009 oxen.
It must bezecollectedthat those who,have started
from points south of St. joseph,lndepeedence, Wes
ton, Westport, &c.,are not inbluded in the estimate.
The whole number uportthe plains cannot fall much
short of 36,000 men.
A. Cuba /Locking Chair.
Mt. Bryant in hie letters from &vane, says that
the Creole ladies love to recline on sofas; “Their
houses are filled with rockinichairs imposted from
the United States, they are fond of sitting in chairs
tilted against the wall, as we do sometimes at home.
Indeed they-go beyond us in this respect; for in Cu
ba they have invented a kind of chair which•by low.
ering tbe back and ratting the knees, places the sit
ter in precisely the same position he would take if
he sat in a chair leaning backwards against the wall.
It is a luxuriating attitude I must own, and I do not
wonder that it is a favorite with lazy people, for it
relieves one of all trouble of keeping the body up
right."

PACTORLESIN AIABAMA.—A writer in the West
Alabamian states the paper factory, at Tuscaloosa,
is now doing tolerably well, making good work in
manofacturi wrapping paper principally, and some
good printing paper. The cotton factory at the same
place, he says, is, doing as well as any mill in the
United States, for the small quantity of machinery
in operation. They arc running 1536 spindles,
forty looms, and making per day 2800 yards ofcoarse
heavy osnaborgs, tfiirty inches wide, and weighing
eight ounces per 'int,' This is an average of sev
enty yards for each loom.

arrived out, and made her first trip. The ."natives
were astonished" ofcourse, to see a steamer plough
ing the hitherto undisturbed waters of their noble
river. The Venezuela has given' touch satisfaction;
she ran from Bolivia to Port , of Spaln, a distance of
500 miles. A letter from Puerto Replan° to the

John h.. Gamble.
The Democratic Candidate for Canal Commission
er, nominated at Pittsburgh, on Wednesday, the 4th
of July, by the State Convention, is worthy of the
united support of the Democratic party. Mr. Gam
ble has served in the Legislature, (though not in
1841 when the Reliefßill became a law,) and in the
Reform Convention, and always to the satisfaction of,
the Democracy ofLycomints county, whom he repre
sented in both. In the latter body he won the con
fidence and esteem of his political friends by his
staunch and steady adherence to the
: cause of Re
form, and his resolute opposition to the machina.
tions of the supporters of Privilege. A Democrat
who acted with such members of the Convention as
Brown and Ingeraoll—Woodward and Kelm—and
secured their confidence, as wo happen to hlve heard
more than one f them declare, cannot be justly as
sailed as weak, o or irresolate, in his support of the 1 1
entire republican creed. Mr. Gamble has been
charged with having opposed Wm. B. Fever, when ;
that gentleman was nominated for re-election as
Canal Commissioner is 1847. The rescue' is .the
fact. Not only did be not oppose him, but it was
mainly owing to his exertions that Mr. Crane, a
relative of Mr. Foster, was sent a delegate to the
State Convention three years ago. Equall unfortu
nate is the allegation that he wan in the Ley
gislature
in 1841, and voted for the Relief Mauer. As we
have already stated, he was not in the Legislature
at that session. So much for the position of Mr.
Gamble as a member of the Dernoeraticparty.
In hie `own neighbor/mod and county, few men
stand higher than John A:Gamble. He is.a Citizen
oldie strictest probity, and has always' hien a lead
ing Member attic church to which he is attached.
Hie word, once given, is regarded as inviolable, and
his private character above either suspicion or re
..proach. No man has more friends or fewer enemies
among those who know him best.
aThese considerations are all-important when po
litical consistency and personal integrity are de
manded in a Democratic Canal Commissioner. We
Ave every confidence that Mr. GAMBLE will be
found cordially co-operating with Messrs. Lorick
irrarrn and PA/NEER—for we regard his election as
a foregone conclusion—in all those measures of re
form never more essential than now to the welfare
of the Commonwealth. He knows what is expec
ted at his hand by the people, and he knows also
how biuerl7 every public man must expiate any vio
lation of forth to those who elect him. Not, indeed,
that we apprehend any such conduct from him;
though it cannot be denied that an effort has been
made to create such an impresaion. If we know
the man at all, we know that he will revolt Irom
any attempt to make the.office, for which he is now
a candidate, and to which he will be chosen, con
tribute to anything not wholly consistent with the
public weal.
A united effort will elect Mr. GAMBLE by an old
fashioned Democratic majority, and will. aid in the
redemption of the State and the union from the
bands of a, party that obtained power by a deliber-
ate violation'of every principle of honor, and seeks
to perpetuate its existence at the head of the goy
ernment by a system of shameless proscription of
all who differ with it in political opinion.
The Great Hungarian Victory.
Th%Continental papers give various accounts o f
the victory of the Hungarians over the Austrians end
Russians. The New York Tribune translates an
account from the Kolniseeh Zeitung, a very moder
ate paper, of the 21st of June, the very latest re
ceived from Germany. It says :
•
The,news 'we have to day received from the scene
of war is extremely favorable for the cause of the
' Magyars. The great battle which we before ennjec
lured would take place on the 14th or 16th of June,
near•l'lnehstratt is now said to have ecime off at that
very glace and time. A number of letters have
reached us from Vienna, and all agree as to the fol
lowing particulate:
"On the morning of June 14, there began along
the whole line on the right' bank of the Daatifie,
from Wieselburg to the Lake of Neusidl, a general
battle between the armies of the Russians and Aus
trians there encamped, and the Maybra. The
struggle was distinguished by unheard of fury on
both sides, lasted 64 hours without interruptlon, and
ended with the most complete defeat of the . Impe
rial armies. Twenty three thousand Austrians and
Russians, and eight thousand Hungarians lay dead
.. ..
on . the battle field. The imperialists losi their
whole artillery, and turning in wild dissamy, fled in
the direction of Vienna, followed by, the hotly pur
suing Maygar hussars. On the Hungarian side Gen.
Arthur Gorgey and General Guyon commanded; the
Imperial forces, were led by Lt. Field Marshal Hay
nan.and the Russian Gen. iindiger.”
These words were taken from a letter which has
just reached us from Vienna, and another letter
just shown us from a great banking-house, of the
same city, is almost verbatim to the eame purport.
Our regular Vienna correspondent, as well as our
corresponded at Presburg, from both of whom we
• have received letters up to the 16th, gives • tie n4l
news whatever in relation to this important battle,
except that on the 14th the continuous thunder of
cannon was heard in the direction of Raab, and'that
the report of a great defeat of the Imperialists was
I circulating at Vienna. We must, however, saylk
regard to this, that for some time past all our lettere
from Presburg have been opened, and when they
contained news unfavorable to the Imperial cause'
suppressed. For this reason our correspondent
1 1 writes with all possible caution, and for the most
Ipart forward, his letters by travelers, whereby they
often do not reach us until they have become old.
According to the old and new details of
gence which are before us, the 14th of June
ed on as the day when operations should be opened
on both side,. The plan of the Hungarians had for
someday, been known to be by overwhelming at
'lacks of cavalry on the two extrguie wings, near
Odenbnrg and Trentschin—to compel the, imperials
late to break up their centre, and Wh ether s they se
to have been perfectly sucebesful. r the atem
tack of Schilick3s corps estate of - oedenburg,which
turned out so badly for therAuetrians, were only the
;opening, or as it were, the overturn - of the great
patties of
_which our Vienna letters speak, or wheth•
'er the defeat - of Schlick was only the cause for ex
aggerated reports of a universal defeat, we - shall
know with certainty in a few days.

usually attended by a harmless and playfully little

is not known; but it seems to be regarded with ten
de.iness and attachment by a creature addicted to
ferocity and bloodshed, and is admitted into an inti
macy of kindness and love, while all others are re
pelled by fear and awe. In the whole compass of
nature, no analogy more striking and beautiful than
this can be adduced, to illustrate the strong and
mysterious attraction whiclais sometimes found to
exist between love and crime. Row many sons of
rapine and violence aro there in the world, who
roam over the sea, or prowl upon Jand, who still
have some dear and -tender being clinging to the
heart, sod watching over them with the most invin

yet, how often do these hardened reprobates parti
cipate in no other-ympatby and love except this, but
are detested and proscribed by the whole world be

less shark, to be condemned and slain, whilst the
defenceless and innocent object of affection is left
unprotected, uncared for, and unthooght of behind.

An Ordinanee providing topheiedeuiptipti of City Scrip.
SECT.' 1.-Be it , ordattied - apit eriactsd . by the :iii.

on said certificate,' when so redeemed.
SECT. 2. Be it Ordained, fe. ; That from and after
the 18th July, instant, ail interest on City Scrip shall
cease and determine,ind it shall be unlawful for_the
Collectors of taxes to,allow interest in City Scrip
paid.to them ; for we,' beyond tie 18th issf .
SECT. 3. Be it ;enacted,' That so ninth of any or.
dinauce or ordinal:ees as are hereby altered 'or - sup.
plied, be hereby repealed. : -
- ,
Before voting on the final passage ofthis oidinance,
Mr. Morrow would like to hear a report from th e Fi
.
nance Committee, as to how much Scrip we had out
standing.
Mr. Lorenz, from the Finance Committee rePlied
that there was in.the neighborhood of $250,000 ori
Scrip outstanding.
Dr. Black said be would like to see a written re
port from the 'FinancesCommittee.. One hundred
thousand dollars of theloan might lay in the bands
of the Treasurer for eight months or a year, and
lose interest. A. portion of the money should' be
appropriated' to carry on the City Improvements, now
in progress. He tusked from the Chairman of the
Finance Committee a statement as to when and hoyi
we were to get the , money.
Mr. Lorenz stated that the bonds would be drain
up, and we would receive the money as we wanted
it. It would bear intereat from the first of July.l
There would be no isurplui. ,
Dr. Black also objectod.to the.paasage of the Ort
dinance, on account of it repealing the interest on
Scrip, after the 18th of July.'
Mr. Lorenz stated that the paragraph relating
to
Intermit had been inserted for the parpoie of making
those Who held Scrip.paytheir taxes at once.
'Mr. Morrow was of opinion that there would be
a su r plus of some thirty or forty thousand dollars;
and thought Ott a portion of the loan should be ap
propriated to the carrying on of the. Public Im
provements now in progress.
Mr. Shipton moved to"amens, by inserting after
the words , . two hundred thousand dollars? t , or so
meth thereof as may be deemed necessary. ...
Mr. Denny thought that the members of Council
were distracting their mindi on a very trifling ,
jecit. This Ordinance should have been appended
to the one authorizing the loan. The money was
gotten for the purpose of redeeming the Scrip, and
the City Treasurer should be authorized to apply it
to that purpose. As to what should be done with
the surplus was entirely at the action of Councils—
and this was not the proper time to discuss it. The
public were anxious to have this matter arranged,
and we should attend to it at once. The bonds will
be signed and transmitted, and the City in possession
of a portion of the loan in a few 'days.
The amendment proposed. by Mr. Shipton was in
serted by common consent:
Mr. Layng was opposed to stopping the; interest
on the Scrip. He spoke et length so d to the point
on the subject. He referred to the act authorizing
the issue of Scrip and said that the city could not get
round paying the interest without being subject to
the charge of repudiation.
Mr. Lorenz thought that those persons whO htuf
bought it up at sixteen and twenty per cent. die.
count, ought to be satisfied.witb . getting par'money.
He thought there would be no rohbery in the mat-
Mr. Layng moved to strike out the proviso.
The motion was lost.
Mr. Shipton moved the third reading and final pas
sage of the ordinance.
. .
Mr. Coyle moved a reconsideration ofthe vote on
Mr. Layers motion to strike ont 'the proviso. ,
After eons ideration Mr. Coyle withdrew his m. I
tion.
Mr. Ship ton moved to amend by inseiting.theiStb
of August instead of the 18th ofJuly. Acceded to.
