SCOTT ASD mLKoiE.
«. . Yesterday, wo gave a few choice extraots from
.theofficeholders’ journals to show the Joeing
feeling, with which the Fillmore men regard the
Scott movements. To-day, we have a few sweet
hits from the Scott organs on Fillmoro.
The New York Tribune, a paper that plays the
T’pnrt of oracle to the whigs, says:
. - ‘‘ Tho feeling is bo strong for him, that, in my
opinion, the ExjmE paetp wouits bolt the ko-
WISATJON OF AST: OTHKE HAS, Btld CSOheW, pme
tioaliy,. the great Whig party of the oonntry, and
.throw the -overwhelming influence of the State
into the hands of tho Opposition, indifferent of
the'result"
This is po3ittvo language, and if any reliance
could bo placed in the editor's political honesty,
-we might suppose he meant what he said. But
he'don’t believe a word of it himself; and the ■
moment Scott is laid upon the shelf, he will
throw up his cap and huzza for Fillmore. Wei
are certain he wilUdo it, for it is bis nature, and <
the course he has always followed, to make ac
fuss about the man be is willing to betray in the i
end, , ■ i
. In the State Convention, a delegate from Mad
ison remarked, that if Fillmore wero nominated,
14 he would be tunic so low that the bubbles mould
never rise to the surface over his remains.’” That
is a strong idea, and wo would recommend the
Scott journals to adopt it os a motto,until their
bubble bursts.
These extracts show that Gen. Scott's friends
understand something about the game of brag,
as -.well; 03 the officeholders; bat we aro appre
hensive It won't avail them. The long purse of
their opponents, and the unscrupulous manner
in which they will use it, will be the death of the
General's hopes. •
Another matter that will set him back is, that
they have pushed him into a noncommittal posi
tion, and will not permit him to write any more
letters, at least until after the nomination. They
say* “It may be asserted with entire confidence*
that Gen* Sootfc, under no condition of circum
stances, mill change the ground xohith he has occu
pied since his name has been brought forward con
spicuoutly in connexion with (he presidency, and
mill write no Utter concerning public questions, un
less the whig convention should think proper to
offer him the nomination.”
This is unfair treatment of the General, when
we consider the facility with which ho can write
letters, and the easy manner in which ho can ac
commodate his opinions to the wishes of all par
ties.: ;
When he was first spoken of as a candidate,
* theydet him have a fair swing as a model letter
Writer, and he acquitted himsolf in a manner
which was, nt least, highly amusing, if not very
instructive. After the indulgence they have
given him, it is Bhamcful for his friends to check
his laudable propensity at the moment when
One more, letter might fix his fate, and place him
in hie right position.
But ho ■is not in a worse condition than his
competitor. In fact he is in. a better position,
for iie has expressed his opinions on some Bub
jeets, and has written letters on many others.
But Fillmore has, kept as close as an oyster and
said nothing. =; Whether ho was at an early day
placed intho hands of a committee of conscience
keepers, composed of office holders, as Gen.
Scott has recently been delivered up to a com
mittee of office hunters; wo cannot say, bnt it is
known to every one that he preserved n dignified
—and perhaps, a cunning silence evcrsinco a
- rivalry between him and Scott sprung up.
The 16th-of June, however, will tell us all
about It, and if Scott should got the nomination,
we -will -have, another letter, which will show
olearlythat the “country is in-danger,” and
that his election alono can save it.
JQylt seems that General Larimer is to moo
with more.thamordinary opposition in his march'
to a Congressional nomination. • • The other aspi
rants aro slandered at the street corners, in
whispers only, but a more bold assault is made
upon the General. They attack him through
the columns of the organs of his own party. A
writer in yesterday’s Journal had the unfairness
to rake up some. of Mr. L.’s former political
transgressions, and appears desirous -to place
them as stumbling blocks in his way to the nom
ination. But this secret attempt to injure Gen,
Larimer will not succeed. We do not mean it in
compliment to the political consistency of Gen.
L.j /when we say that he has been just as con
sistent as any other Whig in the county, and
possessed of a great deal more political honesty
than, one half of those who set themselves up
as, shining .lights in tho .party.—The American
has come to the rescue, and Bays something to
ils brother of the Gazette about somebody har
ing been bought. Wo don’t understand the ailu
sion.
Westers Medical Sews asd Cascer Jottr
sal.—Such is the title of a neat Quarterly pub
lished in Cincinnati, at the low price of 26. cents
per annum, and edited by R. S. Newton, M. D.
and 0. E. Newton, M. D. It is conducted with
great ability, and is devoted principally, to the
treatment-of the Cancer. To the medical pro
fession especially, this little work is of immense
vMuc, and even those who do not belong to the
fraternity, might read its pages with profit
ggTThe nomination of Judge Hepbdrk for
: Congresshas been suggested by many of our
citizens, a better man could not bo selected for
the exalted station, or one who would watbh
over the interests of the district with more fia e i
ity. - Bnt,,itis donbtful whether he desires to go
into the political arena and struggle for office
The editor of the - Gazette is ■writing cs
sa Js> for the information ef hie party, in regard
to the approaching county nominations.. .They
are Tory' instructive, and will, no donbt, have a
great influence on the Convention* and cause it
to deliberate seriously before it acts;
- There is something inbis number, ofyeater*
day that sounds very mysterious. Here is; the
first paragraph that struck us as being of that
character. Ho says:
“Now wo do not osk our personal friends to
be nominated in order to.secure our support,"but
u’c require that, tho gentlemen who are the
choice of the party shonld bo competent, upright,
responsible and respectable men, as well as good
i 'Vnigs; (won’t ho have Antimasons?) and unless
i s . 1 clen _ we put in nomination we cannot pro
mise to give them our support, however sound
their wh.ggory may be, Wo refuse to support a
candidate whose political principles are not
80 “B?i and we do- not recognize tho claims of
r politics as higher than those of morals and pa
triotism.’’ r
“Respectable men!” Are not all the Whigs
I "respectable men?” We have been told, for
I;he last quarter of a century, that they possess
all the “ respectability and talent” of the coun
try, and that neither of - these virtnes oould be
found in any party , but their own. And he de
clares, moreover, that he will not support im
moral men, "What does he mean? Is itintend
ed to .insinuate that., any of the gentlemen now
offering, themselves for the Whig nominations are
not “reapectable”-u-arenot “moral?’! Hemust
have some motlvo for writing the paragraph, and
the general impression is, that it. is a thrust at
some of the enterprising young Whigs who arc
willing to serve tho people in any offioo of honor
and profit that may be conferred upon them.
The paragraph is a slander upon the Whigs
generally, for it leaves the inference that they
28.
havo lost their “respectability,'” and it is an in
sult to'the gentlemen of that patty who have of
fered themselves for office, inasmuch as it insin
uates they are not “moral,” at least, not so in
the estimation of our cotemporary.
Ho goes on and gives some very judicious ad
vice ub to the nominations for Commissioner and
Sheriff, which is intended to hit somebody and
help somebody else, and then turns his attention
to the Legislature, as follows:
“In the Legislature wo need a high class of
men—we mean as regards abilities and attain
ments, as well as moral character. A legislator
should be able to give his opinions on any sub
ject which may oome before .the House, in on
intelligible manner, and to draft reports, bills,
&c. He shonld be able to introduce and sup
port and defend a measure, so as to command
the' respect of bis follow mombers. Without
these qualifications be cannot do justice to bis
constituents.”
Now, this is a direct fling at the late mombers,
and a treacherous stab at their hopes for a nom
ination. The editor of tho Gazette, and other
Whigs, are growling at Slcssrs. Appleton, Fife
& Co., because they didn’t do anything for their
constituents at the last session. How could
they do anything when thoy didn't know how to
do it? They did tho best they oould, and made
themselves useful whenever thoy knew how.
The motive for this assault is pretty well un
derstood.- It is known that tho editor has Borne
special friends who are anxious for Legislative
honors, and ho has pledged himself to malic the
party send them to Harrisburg. They are all
Whigs proper, and hate the namo of ontimason,
and that is tho reason, tho editor never refers to
the latter faction in his article, but addresses the
Whigsonly. It is al6o rumored that ho has an
eye on the nomination bimßelf, but wo giro no
credence to tho report, as such conduct would be
treachery to his friends; and moreover, wo do
not suppose that ho would take any position be
low that of member of Congress.
Wo will wait patiently until the Whig Conven
tion moots, and then perhaps the editor will let
the public know who It is in the Whig party that
ho deems neither “ respectable” nor “ moral.”
It will bo very strange if he can find any such
men in the ranks of his political friends.
Western Pennsylvania Hospital,
, At a meeting of tho Directors of the above in
stitution, hold a few days since, a resolution
was passed that the building be prepared for oc
cupancy forthwith. . Tho late appropriation of
$lO,OOO, on tho port of tho State, although not
yet paid over, will warrant the Directors in ma
king expenditures necessary for the reception
and proper treatment of tho eick and tho afflict
ed. ;
During a recent visit to the Hospital, wo were
rejoiced to see that many of tho kind-hearted
and liberal-minded ladies of Pittsburgh have
furnished parlors, chambers, &c., out of their
own private purses. Amongst the ladies who
have thus manifested a benevolent spirit, we may
mention, Mrs. Gon. Larimer, Mrs. Bailey, Mrs.
Judge Lowrio, Mrs. Felix Brunot, Mrs. C. H.
Paulson, Mrs. Dr. Campbell, Mre. O’nara, Mrs.
Shepherd, Mrs, Bingham, Mrs. Dr. Sellers, Mrs.
Judge Wilkins, Mrs. Simpson, and many others
whoso names wo do not now remember. Wo may
hero state that there are manyrooma in tho Hos
pital which are Btill unfurnished; and it is to
be hoped that other laities will volunteer to pro
vide such articles ns will bo necosßary for their
occupancy. Tho expense of purchasing plain,
substantial furniture, will bo tight, and tho kind
donors will receive full credit therefor whon they
oome to.settle their final account.
A Bad Endorsement.
Wo observe that the only papers that now
quote the miscalled democratic Review are the
most virulent of tho Whig journals. They are in
ecstaoies when they read its »carilous abuse, hot
only of tho best men in the Democratic party,
but also tho moßt distinguished statesmen of the
country. Its low epithets and low blackguard
ism is sweet to the palates of tho Whigs, and
they swallow both with an appetite that indi
cates how well adapted their stomachs ore to
snoh vile stuff. The writings of the editor of
the Review ore just the kind to suit tho taste of
the Whigs, and we are glad they patronize him.
They may have him all to themselves, for the
democracy don’t want him.

CgL, Another Uncurrcnt smalt note project,
somewhat similar to tho “Bank of tho Union,”
noticed a few weeks ago, has been put afloat.
Ono of the issao was shown to tho editor of the
New York Times on Saturday—a dollar bill pur
porting to bo on tho "National Bank” at Wash
ington, “scoured by pledge of State Stocks."
As there is no chartered Bank of this name at
the seat of General Government; no Free Bank
ing Law authorizing privato associations, and
no officer authorized to receive and keep pledges
of State Stocks; -tho Times takes this to bo
"another New York attempt to foist a surrepti
tious currency on the public,* to bo shaved by tho
makers at higher rates than the Now York law
authorizes on tho legal and really secured small
notes of our own State.”
The New Gold Dollar.— The Philadelphia

EST - If the following which we copy from the
St. Louis Union of tho 20tb, is trno, it is tho
most infamotiß outrago that has ever been per
petrated on onr Western waters. The officers
and crow of the Martha No. 2, should be mado
an example of.
Tnnniniß Odtiuue ato Tiumi'Ai, Result.—
Wo have just been informed by the officers of tho
Kate Kearny, and also by two gontlemon, who
came passengers on that boat, of some of the
particulars, attending one of the most extraor
dinary oironmstanees which it has ever been onr
duty to chronicle. Thomeagro details os furnish
ed to us, aro substantially as follows: Monday
oveniog last, the steamer Martha No. 2, left port
forGalcna, with an unusually largo trip of freight
and passengers; among tho latter thcro were
several deckers.
An elderly gentleman, from Hardin oo , Ky.,
whose n&mo we did not ascertain, had taken deck
passage for his family—oonsisting of two daugh
ters, a son, and son-in-law.
About the hour of 10 o’clock, the family were
aroused from their repose by the Intrusion of one ;
of the deok hands, who attempted to tako un
warrantable liberties with one of the females.—
Ho was repulsod, bat in a few moments return
ed and ro-commonocd bis attempt. The father
proceeded to tho cabin, nnd represented the
state of affairs to the clerk, who promised that
tho family shonld suffer no further molestation.
- These worthy people were allowed to ecjoy
their places in quiet, till about four o'clock the
following morning, when all the lights in the en
gine room and on deck wore suddenly extinguish,
ed, and several men walked in the direction of
the Bleepers, evidently determined on an attack.
The noiso awakened the old man and his sons,
and thoy made immediate preparations for de
fence. ■ ■■• ■ ;
The son was struck down withoome Bharp in
strument, the father at once rushed tohia relief,
and by the prompt use of a sabre, it is Baid, kill
ed two of the ruffians, and inflicted a mortal
wound on a third. .
i When the son fell, the woman dragged him to
anotherpartOf the boat, to whiofi circumstance
he is indebted for his life. They also made free
use of pots, skillets and other utensils, in defend
ing themselves from the intruders. The latter
soon retired, but not till they had inflicted seve
ral dangerous wounds on the person of the old
man, - When the boat reaohed Louieiana, this un
fortunate family went ashore, and the boat pro
ceeded on her trip.
We give these details, as we received them
from what wo consider to be authenticsources,
and shall refrain from any comments on the hor
rible transaction, till wo ascertain further par
ticulars. When; our informants left Louisiana,
the old man was in> very critical condition, and
by many was not expected .to survive.
: E©* The Louisville Journal closes an article
on Daguerreotypes, with the following remarks,
in which wo fully conoide:
It' is a mistake :to suppose that because
sunlight is the painter, oil paintings are alike
faithful. Since the time for an impression
has reen reduced to :20 or 80 seconds, the
operator if he has the requisite toot, may
by his words and manner call up any ex
pression he chooses, “ from grave to gay, from
lively to severe,” and before the play of life has
vanished from the features, commit both it and
them to the faithful keeping of the pencil of the
sun. Dagucrrotyping rises above a mere me
chanic trade to the dignity of an art, and there
is as much room for difference between those
who pursud it, os exists between a sculptor and
a stone-cutter, between a sign painter and a
Gilbert Stuart, betweenapoet like Milton and a
word spinner like Pollock or Young.

.. The I’m and the pin and a needit?,
says tte American Fountain, being neighbors in
a work basket,, and being idle, began to quarrel,
as idle folks are opt to do.
** I should like to know.” said the pin, 11 what
you are good for, and how do you expect to get
through the world without ahead I■’ “Whatis
the use of your head,” replied the needle, rather
sharply, “if you have no eye?” ■ “ What’s the
use of an eye,” said the pin, “if there is always
something in it ? “I am more active and can
go through more work than you can,” said the
needle, “ Tea, but you will not live long.’’—
“Why not?” “Because you have always a
stich in your side.” said the pin, “Youarea
poor crooked creature,” said the needle. “And
you are so proud that you can’t bend without
breaking your, back.” “I’ll pull your head off
if you insult me again.”. “ I’ilpull your eye out
if you touch me, remember your life hongs by a
single thread,” said the pin.
While they were thus conversing, a little girl
entered, and, undertaking to sow, she broke off
theweedleat the eye.. Then she tied the thread
around the neck of the pin, and, attempting to
sew with it, she soon pulled its head off, and
threw it into the dirt by the side of the broken
needle. ' ■-'
“ Well, here we ore,” said the needle.
“We have nothing to fight about now,” said
the pin. ■
“It seemß misfortune has brought us to our
senses." ■ . .
“ A pity we had not come to them ■ sooner,”'
said the needle.

A Queer Speculation.
A young German, named; Charles Van der
Choux, twenty-nine years of age, having in the
space of ten years dissipated d large fortuno left
him by his father, and beingnow absolutely with
out a thaler, has reaof ted to the following origi
nal method of replenishing his. impoverished
treasury. He puts himself up iu a lottery. One
hundred thousand tickets, at ten francs each,
amount to a million, in round numbers. The
prospectus accompanying each ticket acquaints
the public with the details of the operation:
Up in a lottery, a young man, twenty-eight
years of age, four feet eight inches high, of
agreeable face—which has, by the way, already
pleased on several occasions. The winning tick
et will be evidently a man or a woman. 1C it is
a man, the million produced by tho sale will be
divided • between him and M. Van der Choux.—
He will therefore reaUzo a clear gain of 499,990
francs. If it is a woman, she will havo her
choice between the person of M. Van der Choux
and 500,000 francs. Whoever she may be, M.
Van der Choux engages to marry her, uatess she
prefers 600,000 francs. In one or tho other hy
pothesis, her profit is evident. Secure your tick
ets early! ■
Mr. Choux expects to have disposed of all his
scrip, before summer is over, and has summoned
a Parisian manager of such enterprises to tho
Hague to confer with him for the Paris market
He seems to have forgotten to state what will be
the course pursued in case a married lady holds
the winning ticket So here is a lottery whoso
very shoe-strings that of the golden ingots would
not be unworthy to unloose.— Corrti. A'eio York
