It is astonishing to’ observe how deeply;-the
•whigs have fallen in love with the Catholic por
tion of onr fellow citizens, since the nomination
of Mr. Pieuce: They have discovered that Gen.
Piercqifl ft native of New Hampshire, and,; far-,
ther/that there is ft law in that Stato, (a dead
letter, we are told, on the statute boohs,) which
Gen' P. has frequently denounced as a “stigma"
upon the fair fame of tho commonwealth, depri
ving catholics of civil rights,; to somo extent. —
If such ft law is operative in New Hampshire,
„ what had Gen. Pierce to do with its enactment ?
Nothing!*. But, on the contrary, he hns labored
bythe slde of the lamented Woodbury to have
the foul stain wiped out. But their failure to
nbolish this .odious test, did not fail through the
lukewarmness of’democratic support, hut the
■ determined resolution of tho whigs, abolitionists
and free-soilers, to retain it. No man could do
more than Fierce and Woodbury did to abolish
it, hut they were overpowered by a malignant
and proscriptive opposition,' and if it is earned
out let the whigß andabolifionists,—the natural
- parents of such unnatural measures in our re
publican government >bo held responsible for
it ; The principle germinated: at the time the
' seed was sown, that produced tho alien and sc
ditionlaw, tho shoot from which the present
■ Whig patty Sprung; The descent can ho. traced
with mathematical exactness from the party that
conceived. and enforced: that most infamous
law.
BuUo comedown to onr own day,and where have
we found’all their sympathy directed ? In the
presidential contest of 1844, the great.pniar of
light'which they fondly thought would lead them
on to victory, was the conflagration of Catholic
Churches, and t‘;o hand that applied the incen
diary torches to the buildings dedicated to tho
worship of Almighty God,deposited a goodwhig
ticket attho election which followed these foar
fnl scenes of whig skillin pyrotechnics. Is there
~ ft.whig editor in the Union who will deny that;
the miscreants who made bonfires of the Catho- ;
lio Churches In ’44 were not the- bitter enemies i
Of tho democratic party, and the devoted friends
• of the whig candidates? Will they deny; that
; ; . tevin, the renegade who, by the outpouring of
.his attrocious sentiments, gloried in the mnrdcrs
■ml ponflagrationß that followed his mad appeals
totheexdtedpassions of infuriated mobs,and qjd
edthoir party materially in carrying tho oity and
eonnty of Philadelphia 1 Or will they deny that
■ ' on Bceonntof the conspionous port ho played in
2 those bloody'and socriligions scenes he become a
bright star in the galaxy of whig statesmen, and
was triumphantly sent to Congress as the repre
sentative of their principle 4 l
The seenes to whioh we allude have never been
* . attuned for, or any effort made to change tho
l bitternesSufthe feeling that then existed against
' - Catholics, although its consequences havo'not
. been carried to such a lamentable extent
r or course, we do not ocouse aU whigs with
° taisg derived satisfaction from the ruthless
-■ - - persecution and butchery of the Catholics at the
r period we refer to, hut we hnow that while they
deplored such scenes, they hoped that they
would: benefit their party, and for a time enppo

NEW PUBLICATIONS.
CSSf Wo have received a pamphlet of 86 pages
entitled “ An Appeal in behalf of the Allegheny
Valley Railroad.” The letter of: Wm. F. John
ston, Esq , tho President of the road, seta forth
in a very clear and satisfactory manner the im

public for support. It is to be hoped that our
citizens - will ho as liberally disposed .towards
this road as their circumstances will admit.

Another AVtllg Calculation,
A Baltinfero correspondent of the Washington
Republic, states that a gentleman who has taken
much pains in keeping a record of tho names
and political bias of the members elected to tho ■
whig national convention, predicts that tho first
ballot will bo nearly as follows:
For Millard Fillmore
For General 5c0tt...........
For Daniel Webster
The writer then says:
This will give the friends of Mr. Webster the
balance of power, a majority of Whom, it is be
lieved, will prefer Mr. Fillmore as their second
choice. Thenagain, should Mr, Webstcr’sfriends
stand firm by him, it is believed that the friends
of General Scott would unite on Mr. Webster as
their second choice. Tho chances tstts thus
deemed at present most decidedly in favor of
Fillmore and Webster. Tho adoption of the
availability doctrine by the democracy has also
produced a desire among the Whigs to avoid fol
lowing tlieir example, which is also working
ogainst the prospects of Gen. Scott,'
The New York Day Book puts down the bal
lotingthus:—
First ballot
Second ballot
Xt2P“ The Convention of Steamboat Mes,
arc Btill in session at Louisville, or were, at the
latest dates. On-Wednesday they wore engaged
in reviewing Mr. Davis’s bill, now before Con
gress, which wos token up and gone through with
section by section, and variously amended.—
Capt, Haldeman, of Cincinnati, proposod as
amendments to the bill, tho adoption of water
gnages, steam guages, fusible alloy; wire tiller
ropes, and to prohibit tho use of castiron boil
er heads. The two first propositions were folly
discussed in convention, and finally adopted.—
The others were under consideration when the
convention adjourned.
. • Tho first busincss-that was to bo taken op on
Thursday was the practicability, and necessity of
the adoption on-steamboats, foßibly alloy,’which
is to bo used on the boilers in such a way as is:
thought ffilt prevent explosions.
Baltimore and .Ohio Railroad,
We direct attention to the advertisement of B.
11. Lathobb, Esq., Chief Engineer of the Balti
more and Ohio Railroad, which will ho fonnd in
to-day’s paper, inviting proposals for the grada
tion and masonry of GO or 60 sections of that
road, from tho month of the Three Forks to Par
kersburg, on - tko Ohio rivor. Hero is a fino op
portunity for contractors to secure a good job.
The time limited for receiving the proposals is
tho 24th of July.
The Directors of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road are pushing on that work with wonderful
rapidity, The road is already completed to tho
Monongahela nver, a distance of 124 miles from
Cumberland. ■lt is thought that the road will be
completed to the Ohio river by the first of Janu
ary next. ■■■
The Whigs of South Carolina have chos
en delegates to tho Whig National Convention,
whioh moots on Wednesday, ntßaltimore. They
passed a series of resolutions, the first of which
declared that they will give their cordial and
hearty support to any Whig oandidato who ex
plicitly avows his acceptance of tho ; Compromise
as a finality; and none othor. The second reso
lution endorses the present Administration, and
eulogizes Mr. Fillmore. The third.expresses.ad-:
miration for the talents of Mr. Webster. Tho
resolutions do not instruct , the delegates whom
' they shall support; but undoubtedly Mr. Fill
more is their first, and Mr. Webßter their second
choloe.
; Thomas F. Meagher, the eloquent Irish
exile, has declined tho public reception tendered
to him by the corporation of New,York city. In
his speech declining the. offer, he said:
■ ‘• Whilst my country remains in sorrow, and
subjection, it would be indelicate in me to par
ticipate in tho festivities you propose. .When
she lifts her head, and nerves her arm for a bol
der struggle—when she goes forth, like Miriam,
with song and timbrel to oelobrate her victory—
I, too, shall lift up my head and join in the hymn
of freedom. Till then, the retirement I seek
will best ncooTd with the love I bear her, and
the sadness whioh her present fate inspires.’’

A Scott Song;
An ardent friend of Gen, Scott Aas commenc
ed writing songs and parodies in praise of: tbe
propensities of his favorite. /The tliemo of his
last parody is soup, and he reasons as follows on
tho propriety; of praising it:- *‘TVe have plenty of
drinking songs, bat no eating fiongs/ and wedo
not see why :tho latter should not he substituted
for tbe now that the practice of Bitting
over one's wine is nearly exploded, and the ta
bles owes much less to' the bottle than :to the
bottle-jack. Conviviality, os far: as liquids are
Concerned, is virtually at an end, and therefore,
unless the solids can be converted‘into subjeots
of harmony, wo fear that the separation between
hospitality and a song will become unavoidable.
Wo are desirous of doing what wo can to pro
mote tho harmony of the festive board, and be
ginning, therefore, with a sort .of. compromise
between tho fluids and the substantiate, wo have
selected Soup,'as a theme, upon which; wo may
meet half way theieaters and the drinkers, who
may wish to combine song with a satisfaction of
their appetites.*’ Ho then.writcß .a parody.which
we may call the . -

Bast a Fe.—The Clara brought from Independ
ence to this city, Judge Watts, of the Supremo
Court of Now Mexico, and Mr. Hubble, a mer
chant of Santa Fe. These gentlemen arc lately
in, hut they bring .no Mexican news, additional
to that brought by the mail which reached Inde
pendence on the 17th ult. In crossing the
Plains, Aubry’s train was met; getting nlotg.
finely. Wo nro glad to state that tho rumors of
the siokness and mortality among his men, aro
without foundation.
The accounts, however, received from other
trains, aro discouraging in the extreme. The.
expedition started by Warner & Hughs, has been
extremely unfortunate. This firm had sent out
a freight and also a passenger train.
The cholera had made its appearance among
the men of the former train, who were convey
ing goods to Salt Lake, and one morning ten
were attacked with violent symptoms, nnd before
night six of them died; This so greatly dishear
tened the ballonce that the majority of tho com
pany abandoned the trip, and returned .to the
settlements. The passenger train was more
fortunate. Tho people who have went with it
are bound for Californio,: and were unjoying
good health at tho latest advices.
It seems that in many instances the cattle, in
crossing the plains; have been suddenly attack
ed with a disease, whioli in the course of o very
few hours boa invariably proved fatal. Many of
the trains have in this manner suffered severely.

Good for Gen* Cass*
Tho Washington correspondent of tho Phila
delphia Ledger, writing under date of June 9th,
relates the following:
Gen. Cass having to-day been accosted at the
National Hotel by ono of his friends, who ob
served that “Republics were ungrateful, ’’ tho
old statesman instantly checked him, by assuring
him that the Republic of tho United States had
been remarkabty grateful to him, “I crossed
the Alleghenies on foot," said Gen Cass; “I
rowed my own boat on the Ohio river, and from
that humble position I have been exalted by
tho gratitude of the Republic into every station
of honor, trust and emolument, except one, nnd
for that I have once been nominated though not
elected. If there bo any man in this nation who
has reason to thank tho Republio and tho people
for favors bestowed upon him, I am that man.”
The would bo flatterer was snubbed. Let every
American statesman sot o similar example of
forbearance nnd self denial. .

Meiahscuoiy Esn or a Romasce.—Alottor
to tho Cleveland Plain Dealer, dated May 27tb,
gives a narrative of an ill assorted marriage, as
follows:
“In 1839 andlBlo, Catlin, the painter, exhib
ited a number of Indians in London, among
whom was Cadotto, an interpreter. Sarah
Haynes, then a beautiful English girl of sixteen,
bocamo enamored of Cadotte, - and. they were
married. On reaching America, tho romance of
love was over; for two or threo years they resi
ded on tho banks of the river .St. Clair, on the
littlo property tho brido was possessed of, nnd
sineo that at tho Sanlt, where she taught French
and musio.to the timo of her decease. She retain
ed her beauty to tho last, although exposed to
many hardships by living in a birch bark lodge
with an Indian husband. Sho died in her 28th
year, fortanately leaving no children to mourn
the sad effects of an infatuated matrimonial
march.”
New Law or Descent is Indiasa.— A: bill
introduced by Mr. Robert Bale Owen has pass
ed the Legislature of ludiana, and takes effect,
on the Ist of August next. This is said to bo the
most Important act ever passed by tho Legisla
ture of that State, and will affect ovory proper
ty-holder In it; Tho Stato Sentinel says:
“It makes changes radical and sweeping; it
abolishes the principles of law that have pro
vailed for tho last six or eight ocaturies—sinoo
the days of William the Conqueror—and most
of whioh still prevail over ; tho Union, except in
a few States whioh lean to. the oivillaw system.”
ggg* Tho New York Herald thus talks of Gen.
Fierce :
“Gen. Pierce will be found to bo by no means
a weak candidate. The State of New Hampshire
is perfectly crazy with exultation. In Concord,
the 1 capital, as soon as they heard tho news of
his nomination,men, womonandchildren, rusbod
out into the street, 282 guns were firod as a /eu
dej'oie, and all the bolls were tolled for hours.
Some of Gen. Soott’s friends ran up the street
shouting, “Is there a fire anywhere!—is there
a fire anywhere!" “Yes, there is a fire,” res
ponded a young Dcmoorat, “a devil of a , fire, in
tho rear.” :
Bkttino on the Elbction. —Thelargo sum of
$25,000 has been offered by ; one percon in Now
York, to bet that Pierce will be: the next Presi
dent, if he livoß, and now Joseph H. Borrot, of
Boston, puts up $5,000 on the same.. The Ar
gue states that lots of bets may be had in Balti
more on the success of the nominees, betters
taking all risks, for Pierco and King arc “names
that were not born to die.” x ;■
Death to Rais.— An ingenious instrument
kas been invented by Mr. Seaward, a printer, at
Indianapolis, Inch, which will be death on/rats.
To tho treadle on whioh tho bait is placed, is at-:

spring, to whioh is fastened a sharp instrument,
whioh revolves rapidly when the the treadle is
touched,’ hitting the rat between, the peepers
and knocking it six:or eight feet from the trap,
which resets itself instantly for another rat. :

Culture of Tamutocs.
Wo wish to soy a few words about growing to
matoes. Wo hear people talk about planting
tomatoes in sandy ground, that is not vory rich,
for tho reason that they run all ta vines and pro
duce no fruit. Our plan is to plant the seed In
good rioh. ground; and allow them to grow until
they have made two, three or four shoots from
: the stalk—after which; prune all the side Bboots
; that come out;- and follow this plan oil through
the season, every three or four days, and let the
vines grow the full length, never pinching off
the ends.' In this way we can raise earlier and
better tomatoes than by any other.plan, and also
a great many more of them. It is necessary to
stake the vines up to keep them off the ground,
and they will then grow- from seven to nine feet
long, with largo bunohes of tomatoes at the ends
of the vines. Some of our neighbors have tried
this plon, and pronounce it far superior toevory
other. '■ ■ ■■ ;
Experiment in Manuring Corn,
The Journal of Agriculture gives a communi
cation from W. R. Kimball, of New Hampshire,
describing a oarefal experiment with corn;—
Greensward’was piowed:inOotoher,.and manured
highly next spring—it was plowed and harrowed,-
and planted with corn in hills of three grains
each; throe feet, by eighteen inobes. The seed
wiis steeped six hours in a solution of chloride
of time, and in each hill was dropped a handful
of compost made of plaster, unleaohed oßhes,.,
and hen manure—consisting of about three bus.
each of hen manure and plaster, and eight-pf
ashes. The ingredients were: all dry powder.-
r The com came up quickly, and grew with great
vigor, and yielded abouteighty bushels per acre.
On two rows .through' the middle of the field the
chloride of lime aud compost were omitted with
a greatly diminished result, or about thirty-five
bushels less per sore.

A Happy Borne*
The first year of monied life is a most im
portant eta in the history of man and wife. —
Generally as it is spent, so is almost all subse
quent existence.• The wife and husband then
assimilate their, views and theiridesires, or else
conjure, up their‘dislikes,- they add fnel toj
their prejudices an animosities forever after:
ward.
.'..‘..1 have somewhere read,” says Rev. D. Wise, :
in his Bridal Greeting,’’ of a brids-groom who
gloried in his eccentrioities. : He requested his
bride to oocompany him into his garden, a day
ortwo after the wedding. He then threw a line
over the roof of their cottage: : Giving his wife
one end of It he retreated to the other side, and
exclaimed:
“Poll the line!”
She pulled at his request, as far as she oould.
Ho cried—
“ Pull it over!”
“ X can’t,’? she replied. ~
: * “Pull with all your might!” shouted the whim
sical husband.
- But in vain were all the efforts ; of the bride
to pull over tlio line, so long as the hußbandhcld
on to the opposite end. But 'When ho .come,
round and they both pulled fat one end, It came
over with great case.
“There,” said he, as the line fell from.the
roof, “you see how hard and ineffectual wob
our labor when wo pulled in opposition to each
other; bnthow easy and pleasant it is when WO
both pull together. It will be so, my dear,
through life. If wo oppose eaoh-other, it will
bo hard work; if wcaot .’together it will be
pleasant to live. Lot us, therefore; always pull
together.”
In this illustration homely as it may bo there
isjsound philosophy. Husband and wife must
mutually bear and concede, if they wish tomake
. home a retreat of joy and bliss: One alone oon
not make home happy. There must be unison
ofnotion, sweetness of spirit, and great forbear:
ance and love in both: husband and wife, to se
cure the great end of happiness in the domestic
oircle.
Messes. Haebbe & Phillips : A very large
number of us Democrats, both of ; the city and
country, aro anxious to bave John Bartou, Esq.,
nominated for the State Senate., -Mr..; Barton is
highly intelligent and capable, thoroughly: ac
quainted With the true interests of the district,
and perfectly competent to maintain them. Ho
has tact, talent, energy and sagacity, is always
wide awake and ’ at himself,- and not likely to
overlook a ‘‘snake” even in a very mild or inno
cent looking hill. In short, ho is just such a
man as onr district needs; and wo could havo no
more. efficient or influential representative.—
Although a lawyer, and a sound and keen one,
he is not the less entitled to the support and con
fidence of the working men; for he was raised a
hard working farmer, and subsequently learned
and followed a laborious hand-hardening trade;
and hos never alienated himself, cither in asso
ciation or in feeling from the Working men. In,
case he is nominated, if we cannot take the starch
oUt of Mr.'Darsio entirely, we can at least make
a good show for it. Wo could offer tho people
the alternative between Mr. Darsie, as the pet,
and envoy of the Directors’, room,-and Mr. Bar
ton -as the representative of the working-day:
worid in this post meridian of tho 19th century.
