These opposite ridges ere mere elevations of ground, separated hy a shallow valley, varying from n i quarter to a half a mile in width. Standing on one of these curved ridges, along which the English army was posted in two hues,:tho. other . ridge or elevation of ground faces you, along . which, the French were drawn up. Tho main road from Brussels to Genappe,- cuts directly across this vailov, and though these ridges,, in tho centre of the field. On tho extreme right is the chateau of Hougenmont, a with, an orchard surrounded by a high wall in tho shape of a parallelogram. This defended Wei-; lingtoh’s right.- Tho centre rested-its left on a small house called La: Haye Saintc, while the left wing extended farther onto another farm*, honee, caltedTor lailaye..

Ono moment tho mag nificence and pomp of this stern array converted it into a field of glory—tho next, tho conception *of tho feelings that agitated the bosoms of these two military leadere, and the terrible results de pending—alt Europe hanging in breathless sus - penco on the battle, imparted to it amoral sitb limity utterly overwhelming; the next tlio fierce set, the charging squadron, the mclcc of horses and riders; the laVhnp of mangled companies be fore the destructive lire; the roar of nrlillory, and the blast of tho bugle, and braying of tram pets, ani roll of drums, and thetossing of plumes ..iiiinrtliifiiiiiini; • and'-.whoeHfig-.of regiments, and shook of cavalry, ohnngcd it into a scene of ex citement, and daring, and horror, that mads the v blood flow back chill and dark on the heart.

Column after column, the dark masses maroh straight into the deadly fire that opens in every direction. In perfect order and steady front they press-up to tho very walls, and thrust their bayonets through the door .it self. - At length the lionso takes fire, and the shrieks of the woundod who are burning up,-rise a momentover tho roar of the strife, and then naught is heard but the confused noise of bottle.

Scott by the Whig members of the New Fork Legislature is to be followed by. au address to the people from those gentlemen. It appears that out of 1C Whig Senators 13 are for Scott, .and out of 64 Whig ‘Representatives 62 aro for Scott, - This is an ominous indication for Mr. Fillmore and his friends. Ho muat look to his laurels, or tho “feathers” of Scott will overshadow them. The “fuss” is started in good earnest, and the Accideucy and his subordinates will bave to busy themselves if they desire to come “Scott freo” outof tho Whig Slaughter House. Official pup is now declining in the political market, and feathers are rising in a corresponding ratio. Fillmore,, although an abolitionist at heart, and a citizen of a free State, has adopted tho silly policy of attempting to carry water on both shoulders, and thus play tho scurvy politician. The North; it appears, won’t have him, for ho seems to bo subservient to tho dictation of tho South- TheSoutbcmsaresby of him,iuasmuoh as they have his former opinions on record, and think that he is now merely playing the part of a “Northern mnti with Southern principles” to effect'a purpose. He Is in a “ fix,” most deci dedly; and If his office holders cannot, get hint out of it, they may hid goodniglit to Fillmore; for; if the aspect of things does not change, the gathering of the butchers at the “slaughter, house” will bo o bleak, and gloomy day for those who follow the present leader of the Whig party. Fillmore's star- appears to bo waning, and we aro apprehensive that his friends will shortly, find it very necessary to throw more light upon- the brightness of his prospoctß, or his presidential career will end in a more fungus. At present, Gen. Bcott appears to bo his most dangerous competitor, and, what iB curious, he is blundering into a popularity with the party which is only excelled by the hasty .manner in whiohhe imbibes his soup;. State after State ap pearstebo witling to make a fuss about him, and he is marching on: to a position that-will.make him a dangerous rival for the .“Commander, in Chief of the Army; and Navy,",; At present he is'not to be sneezed at by.tho adverse faction of whiggery; 'but if.he should get Che nomination, tho democracy will snuff him out as easily na they would a tallow-caudle, ■ » Another matter that is mysterious to those who are not posted up on the subject, is bow Fill more, a northern man, has become: the favorite of : the south, and Soott, a southern man, tbo choico of the nor th ? There is something stange in this, and many of our fellow oitixens whoarondiot ed to abolition opinions, ask, “how is it?” -We oannot tell, and have uniformly referred. them to oar neighhor of the Gazette for information, ns. ho has supported both sides of Mason and Dix on’s Line, but ho has never yet explained the matter, and we do not suppose he ever will.— They must wait.. ,Tho whig party, in general, is in a dilemma but the organs in Pittsburgh aropcrfeotly quies cent, and are ready and willing to pass into a transition state from theposition they first adopt ed—whenever a remunerating inducement is of fored. Inasmuch as thoir party cannot win, they -feel perffeotly.ludep'endent. .. ~ It we cannot get any information from our co temporaries as.to the exact position of tho north ern man with southern feelings, or the southern man with northern feolings. ws will wait patiently until we see what coming events may bring forth, and then inform our readers. , s@“ We are pleased to see that onr.

To The Echoes' ov the Pittsedequ Posi— Sirs:— This city, yon are probably aware, iB the great fooue for all political mauamvering for the State of California. The Legislature is in session here—having hoen removed from the se lected, but not permanent looation at. Vallejo. Hero the Governor resides, asflvell ns the officers of State: In population, wealth, intelligence, 'and importance, itisthesecond city in. the State; it exerts a commanding influence, and many fa. [tots are yielded her. 'So much for Sacramento. In the Senate of California there ore several gentlemen from the State-of Pennsylvania, and among them one from your own city, the Hon. J. McKibben. Pennsylvanians are quite numerous too, in the House. The Old Keystone,” I can assure you, is moßt ably represented in the Leg- ; islativohalls of onr young, prosperous, and grow ing State. She has not only furnished us a most excellent, and estimable Governor, but many of her sons fill .prominent and important offices. In deed few Stotcs in the Union are as well and highly appreciated. The Democratic State Convention assembled in this city a few weeks ago, for the se lecting delegates torepresent this State in the approaching Baltimore National Convention. In this Convention, as in tho Legislature, Pcnnsyl- Yanianß took quite; an active, conspicuous, and honorable part. It was well known that on em inent* and distinguished son, of ; your .good' old Domocratio State, would likely bo a candidate for nomination before that Convention, and those who were favorable to his nomination, were not back* ward in urging his, (as a majority of us think,) ■superior claims tothathonor. ; Ayoung, find cer tainly intellectual aud popular son of Pennsylva nia, the,Hon. J. W. Coffroth, arising member of the Assembly, formerly of Bedford, Pa., but for the last three yearß previons to ids emigrating to this State, one of the Editors of the Philadel phia Times, was nominated by tho friends of Mr. Buchanan for penriSnent President of the Con vention, the Honf T.'B. Van Buren having been , selected temporary Chairman. Mr. Coffroth, yon will probobly recollect; wSri; a.candidate for the legislature a fewyoarshgo, from; tho city of Phil adelphia. His successful competitor was Mr. JI. S. Latham,' a young lawyer of great promise of this city, who stands deservedly high with his party, who has been here since early in 1849, who canvassed tho northern (or mining,} conn-, ties in the lato Gubernatorial eleotion, who has been long and favorably known to the miners, who has always taken an active part in our State polities, who was among the first to suggest an. organization of obr party,-and worked arduously and inoessantiy, to accomplish that object, is a member of the Domocratio State Central Com mittee; stands of Mb profession, and was not partial to any Presidential aspirant. In . the northern counties—by, for the moat populous Mr. Coffroth ia an entire stranger. There is too, a tittle jealousy, existingbetween the north era and southern counties, Mr. Latham, by not expressing a preference, did not displease those who might have differed with him in opinion. Mr. Coffroth’s predilections were known to many. Of course the friends of all other Presidential candidates, united upon Mr. Lathnnt; lmt this must tiotbe taken as an evidence of the strength of Mr. Buchanan in tins State. Where there are such a number of candidates, it is scarcely fair to put one against the combined strength of the whole. However popular a man may be, such tremendous odds are too great to bo overcome. But had Mr. Coffroth let It been generally known that bo was favorable to the nomination of Mr. Buchanan, the result would have been different Even had Mr. C. been as well known in the i northern counties; as Mr. Latham, ha would al -1 most unquestionably have been elected. Some members voted against Mr. C.,. 3npposibghim ttf ibe opposed to Mr. B. A delegate from El Dora l do county, the moat populous, powerful, and de cidedly Democratic county in the State, voted against him, and got another to do likewise, un der the mistaken impression that Mr. C. did not approve' the .nomination of Mr. 11. This was Lieut. McClory, an ardent and devoted son of Pennsylvania, and strongly attached to her gift ed and favorite Statesman.. Had Mr. Coffroth been a citizen of El Dorado county, with her 32 votes, instead of 18, the re sult might have been fOr different. As it was, ! Mr. Latham only beat him 28 votes. Another thing that operated to Mr. C.’s disadvantage and I to Mr. L.’s benefit, was the fact of bis having voted against one sot of delegates from the city of Ban Francisco. A quarrel unfortunately ex isted in our ranks in that city; arid she sent two sets of delegates, ono of which bad to be exclu ded. Those who Mr. 0. voted against, of course; were exasperated, arid bo; incurred their displea sure and the displeasure of their friends. They exerted all their influence against him. Mr. L. conciliated thorn, and thus gained tlieir support. Although this Was claimed as a test veto by the opponents of Mr. Buchanan, yet strictly speaking it was not. Against any other one candidate, be Would bavo been successful; but 1 that man must be popular indeed, who can beat 1 a combined host of. eminent, popular and distin i guished champions of the democratic party. Wo ! will venture to assert, o more flattering vote will not be given Mr. B. than that in tbo Demo cratic Stato Convention of California, Sbould I he, as we hope, receive tho nomination for Pre sident, he will receive a larger majority in this I State, according to tiio vote polled, than any I other in tho Union. r We all recollect, with mingled feelings Of pride rind exultation, that to him we. are indebted, more than to ony other man, for onr young and browing State. .Through bis exertions mainly, as Secretary of State, was California brought in to our glorious confederacy, and when an oppor tunity presents itself, she will not he. backward in rewarding her benefactor. It is o debt wo owe, and we are arixious'to pay. • i All the old Jackson men, too, have a strong affection for Mr. Buchanan, for his oxertions in the celebrated Expunging, Besolutions. The “damned spot” would still blot the fair pages of the journal rif the U. 43. Senate, had not Mr. 8., and the rest of the noble spirits who composed that body, “blotted it out.’, v A more harmonious nnd enthusiastic conven- - tirin never assembled m any State. All went off smoothly. At tho next Presidential election we will show our Democratic brethren on tho Atlan tic how to roll up large majorities. If you but follow our example, almost the lust vestige of' whlggery will bo swept from onrhappy and pros perous country. A largo number of Pennsylva nians were members of the Convention, and among them I noticed Wm. C. Meredith, James Galloway, Dr. Patterson, Jno, Middleton, James S.iLaw, Und Griorge Ken-.

He was the .most eminent man in the empire, and has done more to: strengthen it, than any man living.; Since Metternich’s retirement, Jfchwarzenberg has been the soul of the imperial government. Bold, cour ageous, and. devoted to absolutism, he has been the rnoßt efficient instrument in the. destruction of liberty, on the continent of Europe. He was the leader of the re-actionary movement that commenced'in l&48, and it is to his counsels, backed, ub they were, -by Russia, that the defeat of Hungary is to be attributed.

In early life, he evinced in sociallife, the unscrupulous libertinism.;that was afterwards eyiabed m hiß political career. In London he sedneed and eloped vrith a lady of rank, for which: he was’prosecuted, andf failing to the damages decreed, was declared anodt law. Afterwards, in Naples, ;he continued: his career of criminal gallantry, for which, in one in stance, he was severely chastised by an injured husband. He served under Kadetzkjr in 1848 j and was in November of that year made Prime. Minister, an office he filled till his death. In eve ery relation, private and public,"he has been _.*a •mnn of intrigue* with the boldness to venture ev erythiiig in pursult'Of an object, and the skill to. accomplish all he undertook.
