' Tbe Journal of Commerce says: I
Mach disappointment.was manifested jester-1
day, among tho National Whigß, when the result I
of the fifty-third declaring Gen. ‘Winfield
Scott tho nominee of tlie Contention; was an
nounced in this city. '
Among.aU that wemet yosterday and hoard I
Bpeak of .the nomination, and: they werehun
dreds, we heard but one solitary whig who did
not declare openly that he would not vote for
Gen. Scott—and that one was an abolitionist and
a believer in spiritTappings. The whigs of Ibis
city ‘are disappointed, chagrined, and mortified
beyond expression, and they can Vent their feel

about so contemptible a nomination.— N. Y. Day

The Courier deff EtatS-Bnis, after narrating
tho events of the Whig Convention, concludes by
saying;
“General Sco(t, according tonH,prObabilUics, I
will have surpassed his competitors only to ren- I
dermore Bure tho sucocbs of the Democrats.— |
The hero of Mexico will be- vanquished in-the 1
electoral field by one ofhis . Lieutenants.” , j
The only Whig paper in Now- York that takes j
up the nominotion heartily, . .is the Timet, edited |
by Mr. Raymond, -whom the Southern Whigs at? j
tacked so '‘gallantly” in. their National Whig j
Convention, and wanted to -have expelled there?
from for his so called slanders, on the South. v
Now, if the whig journals are fond of such fun j
03 we published on Friday morning, theyhave
in tho above extracts something a great deal
“ funnier,” and it will give them food for riflec
tiou after tho fan is turned into serious reality.
Tho editor of the Journal knows fall well that
there, is not an earthly ohance foe Scott’s elec
tion ; and if he could state the-hofiest feelings of
his heart, lie woutd say that his nomination was
a death blow to tho hopes of’the whig party.—
Apart from his portizen feelingsdindare not say,
that Saott has one Bingle qualification to dis
charge the civil duties of the office to which he
is nominated. The man who cannot control his
own temper, oven- over a hasty pl(ite Of . soup,
and who is continually apprehensive of a'.'.'fire;
in the rear,” whenever it-is necessary for him to
follow the plain line-of his doty, is not the man
to preside over the destinies of this great gov
ernment.
: Thefonaticnl and proscriptive native predilec
tions of tbe-Gazette will; no doubt, impel it to
give him-a hearty support; bat we doubt much
if it can make his negroology and anti-democrat
io principles popular with the honest voters- .
When our neighbors digest Hie food wo have
given. them above, we have a few more tit hits
of the same sort left, which will be served up to
them in a choice manner, whenever they may de
sire them. V ’ - . -

A largo Democratic meeting was held in .the
village of Merrillstown, on the 19th.inst, : Maj.
J. B. Rausev was chosen President, and a num?
her of Vice Presidents appointed. , A committee
was appointed to prepare resolutions expressive,
of the sense of the meeting, and in their ab
sence the concourse of people was addressed by
;Wm. W. Roberts, Esq.,‘ in an eloquent and pa
triotic manner. A series of resolutions wero re
ported and adopted in favor of the Democratic
nominees for President and Vice-President,, and

Dawson, the Democratic Congressional nominee.
Previous to the organization of-tho meeting, n

lightning and instantly killed.
, On the 17th tost., two prisoners broke, jail,,
one of whom,'however, was afterwards re-cap
tured. The oountyjail is,inadequate to the safe
keeping of prisoners.; . ' ,- ,
A severe storm passed over a portion of Ty

siderable damage. Asmatilocust tree, near tho.
ham of Johnß. Shlekler,- was struck by light
ning, ’ under whioh, at the time, were standing
twelvofine sheep, nil of which; .were i instantly
killed. On tho farm of Jlr. Darsio, soveh fine

. A dreadfal accident occurred at the house of
the Bev< A. G. Osborne, in George township, on
tho 10th inßt.. A eon of Mr. 0. was engaged in

in flames. Two children, a hoy and girl, were
So: badly burned' and otherwise injured, that they
died, one in about 20, and tho other in 27 honrs
after th* -nc'jad»nt' occurred. • Tho young man
who was pouring oil into the lamp, aged abont
21 years, was bo badly injured that serious ap-.
prehensions are entertained for bis recovery,—
Tho whole family were more or loss ipjnred.
This is another warning to those persons Who use

I Illustrate hiß views of Jtha disgusting system of
[ political proscription, with, which the: adminis-j

copy the following concluding passage-from a i
Bpccoh delivered by him in .1842 in the Senate,
advocating -the. adoption of- a resolution offered
by Mr. 'Buchanan, calling upon the President to
furnish the names of persons, .removed: .from of
fioe, and of those- appointed: sinoo the ...4th of
Ircb, 1842.
‘Democratic administrationshnvc turned out
ne—many if you please—political opponents
give place to political friends, and on the sin;
ground that they had the right to prefer their
ands to their opponents. ■ - Buton this point,
me observe, that no man can say, from his
lividunl knowledge, how it is over the whole
intry; but here we can know, and here we do
ow, the fact that a, majority of the subqrdi
te officers in the Executive departments
ve, during the last twelve years, been opposed
General JaoUson’s and Mr. Van : Buren’a ad
nistratioD. .■.■■.■.■■■. •
“They were-faifcbfut and competent officers, I
liovo ;' at all events they were not reached by
e spirit of proscription, Where, for the last
elve years; your political, frienda have enjoyed
majority of the places, how have our friends
eu treated now that the tables are turned
iey have not escaped your sharper and broader
:o; wielded against your open and. universal
ofessions.
“But’whatever waa done by the late adminis-:
ations was not done under false pretences.—:
e put forth no canting hypocritical,circulars ;t
e stood beforc tho nation and the world on the
iked unqualified ground that we preferred our,
iends to our opponents; that to confer place
as our privilege which we chose to exercise. I
ight not to say wc cAese, sir; for X will say—
hat tbaso friends best acquainted with mo
sow—that thoro was nothingin tbeadministra
ou of General Jackson which I so uniformly
died to justify, as tho removal of one worthy
beer to giro place to another.
“But that removals have occurred, is not the
ting of which I complain. I complain of your
t/poerwj. I charge that your press and yonr
■nding orators made promises to the nation which
ley did not intend to redeem, and which they now
aiuty attempt to oover up by cobwebs. The
snator from South Carolina, near me, (Mr. Cal
oun,) remarked, yesterday, that he had no.lan
uago to express the infamy which, in hisjudg
lent, must attach to that man who had been bo
ire tho people raising his voice in tho general
boat that proscription was to bo proscribed, and
rns, in tho face of such action, nowhero begging
or place at the footstool of power. If my heart
ver responded fully, unqualifiedly,.to any sen
iment, it was to that. Fortunately, before tho
teen scrutiny of oar countrymen, disguises are
ire vain, masks unavailing. The practice of tho
iresent administration has already fixed upon
tg -professions . one of two ■ thiDgs—the stamp
dthcr of truth or falsehood;, tho’people will
udgo which.
“One word moro and I lcavo this snbjoct—a
iaiaful one to me from the beginning to tho end:
Che senator from North Carolina, in the course
if -his remarks the other day, asked, 4 Do gen
tleman expect that their friends arc to be rctain
sd in office against the will of tho nation? Are
they so unreasonable as to oxpect what the cir
iamstanceß and tbo necessity of the case forbid V
What onr expectations were, is not tho ques
tion now; but what were your pledges and
promises before the people... On-a previous oc
casion, the distinguished seuutorfrom Kentucky
(Mr. Cloy) made a similar remark: ‘Anungra
oious task, but the nation demands it.’ Sir, this
demand of the nation—this plea of ‘ stale necessi
ty,' let me tell, gentlemen, is ns old ns tho history
of wrong and oppression. It has been the
standing plea—tho never-failing resort of des
potism. ■
“ The great Jnlius found it convenient, when
he restored the dignity of the Itoinan Senate,
but destroyed its independence. - It gave counte
nance to, and justified, all the atrocities of the
Inquisition in Spain. It gave ulteraneq_ta-fhff
Btitied groans from tho black hole oHJnlcutla.—
It waß written m teaTßupon ‘tho Bridge of Sighs’
in Venico; and pointed to. thoso dark recesses,
upon whose gloomy portals there, wab never seen
a returning footprint.
“ It was the plea of tbo nastcre and ambitious
Strafford, in tho days of Charles tho First. It
filled tho Bastiie of France, and lent its sanction
to tho terrible atrocities perpetrated there. It
was the plea that snatched tbo mild, eloquent,
and patriotic Connie Desmoulins from his young
and beautiful wife, and hurried him upon tho
hurdle to the guillotine, with thousands of olh- ■:
ers cqually-unoffending and innocent; - It - was j
upon thte plea that; tho greatest of generals, if i
not of men—you cannot.mistake me—l mean' I
him, the presence of whose very ashes within tho I
Inst few months was sufficient to Btir the hearts
of a continent—it wasupon this plea that he ab
i jured that noble wifo who throwaround his bum-
I bio days light ondgladacss, ondby her own lofty
energies nod high intellect encouraged his aspi
[ rations. It was upon this plea that ho-committod
i that worst and most fatal not of. hiseventful
| life. Upon this, too, he drew around his person
i tho imperial purple. .It has in ail times, and in
i every age,been the foe of liberty, and tho indis
pensable stay of usurpation. ,
“ Where were tho chains of : despotism ever
thrown aroand the froodom of speech and of tho
press, baton this plea of ‘ State necessity !' Lot
the spirit of Charles tho Tenth and of his minis
ters answer.
:“It is cold, selfish heartless; and has always
: been regardteasof ago, sex, condition, services,
or UDy of tho inoidents of life that appeal to pa
triotismnr humanity.
“Wherever its authority .has bcenacknowl
edgcd,rit has oSßailed . men who stood by their
country when she needed strong arms and hold
hearts; and has assailed them when, maimed and
disabtedih her service, they could no -.longer
brandish a weapon in her defence. 1
: “It has afflioted tbo feeble and dependentwife
for-the imaginary faults of-the husband. -
■ “It has stricken down innocenoo in its beauty,
youth in its freshness, manhood in its vigor, and
old ago in its feebleness anddeorepitude. - What
ever other plea of apology may be set up for the
sweeping, ruthless exercise of this civil guillotine
at:the present day—inthe namo of Liberty, let
us be spqjcd this fearful one of ‘ state necessity’
in this early age of the republic, upon the floor
of the American Senate, in the face of a people
yet free."

- Charmidos was amanof sense, bat was of a
modest disposition, and constantly declining the
acceptance of publio offices. Socrates the great
Athenian philosopher, endeavored to persuade'
Ghnrmidas to put himself forward and under
take pnblio business, as being very oapable of it.
Addressing Charmidns; Socrates said—
i “If you knew any man that, conld gain tho
I prises in the public games, and by that means
render himself illustrious, and acquire,glory to
his country, what would yon; say of him if he
[•refused to offer himself to the oombat ?"
“I would answered Charmidios, ‘'thatdie
was a mean-spirited, effeminate fellow." ■ ■ >
L - “And if. a: man were capable of governing a
republic," inquired Socrates, "of increasing its
j power of advice, and raising: himself by this
1 means to a high degreenf honor, would younot
brand him likewise,with meaunesßof soul if he
| would not present himself to be employed ?”•
“Perhaps I might," said Charmidas, “but why
do yon ask me this question?” ...
Socrates replied, “beoause you nro capable of
managing the affairs of the republic, and never
theless yon avoid doingao, though in the quality
, of a.oltnen you are •obliged to take care of the
commonwealth., Be no longer, thou, thus negli
gent in this mutter; consider your abilities and
: your duties with more attention, and let not slip
. thejoccasions for serving the republic, and -.'of
-rendering it, if possible, more nourishing than it
is. This willbe a blessing whose influence will
descend not only, on the other citizens, but your
■best friendsnnd yourself.”
■Were Socrates living he would saytheßamo to
Franklin Pierce. Not prone to intrude himself
no pnblip notice, Gen. Pierce has often declined
the acceptance of political offices. -Because Gen.
Pierce it capable of managing the affaire of tit*
republic, and of rendering it more nourishing
than it it, he has been nominated for the Presi
dency, and he will be elected to and fill that high
office,-

She proceeded on her trip without any extraor

tha head of: Council Bend—distant about forty:,
miles from her point of' destination. After in- I
effectual attempts to get the boat off, tbe officers
sent to Memphis for assistance, and too Falcon
was sent to her-relief. The latter vessel Succeed
ed in getting her afloat, when the lines gave way
tend the Buoy floated down the stream, struck a
log, and in the course of a short time sank to
her main deck. Her passengers, of whom there
was about fifty, escaped without Injury. The

the liquor law cannot prevent the transport of
liquors from town to town in the state or through

claims for damages may be instituted in all cases;
where liquors have been seized and destroyed
in Iransiiu. The opponents of the law have call- ’

than it onght .to be, and thattbe-exceßS of mor-:

of a human being; whereas they are. precisely,
the same in all important respects.: : Disease,!

| exposure to air, want of exercise, improper diet,
[ both 09 respects quality and quantity, and rfrom
many other causes, .affects ,the rhorse and his

terminate fataliy. Indeed, when a man or horse
has acquired, by a course of training, a high
degree of health and vigor, the skin of each is
on infttUble index of the foot
It has been often remarked in England, that |
the skin of the pugilist who has undergone a se
vere course of training, when he prepares him
self for the fight, exhibits a degree of beauty and |
exceeding fairness that exoitC9 the admiration
as well ns the wonder of thespeotators. So with
the horse; his skin iB the clearest evitfence of
the general state of his health. Even the com
mon disease of foundering is not peculiar to the
horse, but 3b a muscular affection, to which many
men, who have overstraiuedvlhcmaelvea at any
period, are subject.ln.fact, the medical treat**
ment of the horse and his rider ought to be. the
same; and we confidently believe, that if .this
principle was noted uopn with.a moderate-:Bbare
