A MILITARY COVEBSJMEira.
■ \ Shall we have' a military government ?. Tliis |
L r"-V* 0 question of the greatest importance, and i
,-ererj' American citizen should be prepared to
answer it intelligently. The most. celebrated
historians all concur in the opinion that in gov
ernments whore the military power has predom
inated over the civil, the people were mere serfs, ,
without tho enjoyment of liberty or equality.—
A military despotism is the worst of all despo
tisms.' The people who are ruled by the sword
and Jbe bayonet, mushets, powder end ball,
-epaulette-find drums* soon become degraded, vi
cious and brntal—strangers to the sublime .prc- -
cepta of Christianity, and infidels in the most ob
noxious sense Of the term.
' Thebeanty and snbiimity of tho government
. "of the United States consist in the fact that the
.People govern. Here wo-have no aristocratic
titled nobility,—noliereditary tyrants, ■
—no despotic usurpers—no military, despots,—
The people nro the sourco of all power—the
Peoplemake and unmake Presidents. We have
-great confidence in the honesty and. purity , of
- the People. They but seldom err, nnd the “so
ber, second thought’.’ is a corrective of nil mis
takesof judgment.'
Bnt the fact oanuot he disguised that of late
years there'has been a growing disposition on
the partof a portion ofthe American people to
make this a Military Government, or at least
military; in a more prpmieent and
honorable petition than the civilpower of the
' country. This is to bo deeply regreted. We do
not feel disposed to underrate the talents, quali
ficationa and claims of those who have perilled
their lives in defence of their country. We hon
or the patriots and revere the heroes of onr
country. But why shall wo go Into the army
of the United States, to find a candidate for the
: Presidency, when there are men of the brightest
intellcot, of the purest morality; of inooorrupti
ble integrity,—statesmen nod moral-heroes, —
, to he found in the Cabinet, in tho Senate, at the
tier, and in tho walks of private life'; .
' We chargo that the leaders of the Whi;r parly
are seeking to make thin a Military Government.
We say liader.% becauso the great mass of the
Whig party aims to be honest,. These leaders
' are actuated solely by tseltisU considerations.—
They labor to secure the nomination of some
distinguished military cspla'n—not bee anno he
has led on the armies of our country to victory;
slot because he possesses the talents and qnali
* -fications necessary to discharge tho duties -per
; ' taining to the Preaidenoy;—but simply becauso ;
hels sopposed to be availabh!
The time was when the Whig party professed
to bo governed by principle; but that time has
long since passed by. The time wa3 when the
whig party would rather submit to defeat ; with
such a leader and candidate as tho patriotic
lltnav Clay, than to be successful with n man
of second-rate .acquirements. Finding them
- selves in a hopeless -minority iiMbo, United
States, wilhont the slightest hope whaviog any
of tbeir favorite meaenres adopted,- the Whigs
for the last few ycars, have been ronning uftcr
military heroes and worshipping military-idols,
i In 1840, tho Whigs nominated Gen. HAsmson
as their candidate, not becauso he possessed a
tingle civil qualification for that exalted position,
bat simply for the reason that they wished to
get up a grand hurrah, and rush him into tho
White House by a storm of popular enthusiasm.
They trampled principle under their feet, “ klok
ed conscience to the devil,” nnd took to singing
Songs, drinking hard cider, eating corn dodgers,
and parading mimic log cabins all over the coun
try ' " The aristocrats and Bilk stocking; gentry
of the Whig-party. did nil this, to secure for
themselves the ”1 nave.-I and fishes” ofoffice.—
“Tippecanoe and Tyler too,’ wastheir platform
of principles—their political .creed— lhelr,ar<;«c'
vnziifum <tJ /lominmi.” Gen.HAnnisovwas elect-,
cd; but lie was immediately beset by- the tigers
and hyenas of the patty; who in one short
month" after'ltis inauguration -worried- him to:
death. “Tyler, too”—honest John-Tylor-—3uc
ceededio;tho Presidency, oud lie: Immediately
knocked in tho head all the.darling schemes of
wbiggery, especially, that monster of iniquity,
the IT. S. Hank.
10.
Being unsuccessful:’in nleoting-rMr: Ct.ay, in
18bl, who was not only a statesman, but the
acknowledged father of.their, party, they deter
mined In 1848 to hunt up another. military can
didate.. They therefore selected Oen- Twion,
fresh from the battle fields of Mexico, as their
standard bearer. Although the leaders of the
"Whig party had over and over again pronounced
the war with Mexico ‘' unholy, unjust and dam
nable,” and - prayed ■■ that the brave men who
periled their lives of their country in:
Mexico might be ‘‘received with .bloody hands
to hospitable graves,” yetrwe;find. them soleeting
the principal hero of that war as their Presiden
tial candidate.: ■lie was taken from the Regular
Army,—a mere professional soldier,—to dis
charge the duties of on offico for which ho was
notoriously disqualified.-Gen. Tatloh was be
set and annoyed-by the same unscrupulous poli
ticianswho harrflssedGen. .Habeisox, and he,
too. in ono briefi year after his.inauguration,was
carried to his grave.
’ Like the Bourbons of France, wbobavo “learn
ed nothing and forgotten, nothing,*’ we find the
Whig pnrty in 1852, for the third time, again in
the field with a military candidate for tho Pres
idency. They have this time - taken the Com
manderdn-Chief of the Army, General WisnEr.n
Scott, as theircandidate., : Gen. Scott is unques
tionably one of tho greatest military captains of
the age ; but when that is l said; no tnorecnnbe
said in his favor. His warmest friends and most,
zealous advocates do not pretend to urge his
olaitus on any other ground. Having passed tho
greater, part of his life in tho regular army, deck
ed in epauletts and plumes, he has never bad the
opportunity to acquaint himself with the science
and machinery of government. Hence all his
enS&fille,
ism,'
letters*showhim to be a vain, conceited mau, to
tally unfit for the high position he so fondly as
pires to. Suppose, for a moment, that the Whig
party should be successful in making Gen. Scott
President, (a thing wo do not; by any means, anr
ticipate,) what assurance have they that ho will
be able to do more for them than the two milita
ry Presidents whobave preceded him ? Being
in a minority in both branches of Congress, the
Whigs will find themselves perfectly powerless,
because' their military; executive can pass no'
laws. All he can do is to appoint n few hungry
heggar3 to office, and disappoint thousands who
will ,wieh.to live at tho pubtio expense.
The nuinination of Gen. Scott proves that the
Whigs'wish toconvert this into a military gov
ernment.. Gen.' Scott, in his letter accepting
the nomination, says that he is in favor of giving,
all foreigners the right of citizenship trio hare
eenedohe yttitintke army or navy, although he
declared ih liis celebrated letter to the Church -
-burners of Philadelphia,-in 1811; that Ilia “mind
inclined” to a “total repeal of all the acts of
Congress” on the subject of naturalization; thus
preventing all foreigners fron ever Uconnng tifi
'.cnt of the United
If the people wish to have a miiitsry govern
ment, and its correlative a military despotism,
they have only to vote for Gen. Wixhei.d .Scott
for President, 0
We give the following from the Poston Post,
with only this appendix. of explanation: IVe
would, that in stating facts like those contained
in the Post’s article, thg Democratic press, gen
erally,might a little more carefully avoid the
appearance of appealing to Catholics, os though
they constituted a united body in politics. Do
ing justice to Pierce is not necessarily, or prop
eraly, an occasion of ashing Catholics to voto
for. him, or against Scott. If a Catholic is a
Democrat, let him vote for Pierce, and to that
end, let him know what Pierce has done in be
half of the principles of religious freedom; but
how can we expect a Catholic, who. is a Whig in
principle, to support our nomineo?
The Post remarks that “the Whig electioneer,
era are hot making much out of tho religious
test in the New Hampshire constitution—because
it is shown that Pierce and the late Judge Wood
bury and other Demo cratic leaders made earnest
efforts:to remove it, while Devi Chatuberlain,
Whig candidate for Governor, and. other leadiDg
Whigs opposed the submission of the amendment
a second time to tho people. Bat the baseness
and hypocrisy of these attempts to injure the
Democrats with the Caihotia, is shown vividly
by a recollection of how thn Whigs tried to
arouse Protestant prejudice against Mr. Von Bu
ren, when a candidate for President, on account
of a eivU letter he had written to the Pope as
Secretary of State. The Whig demagegneß find
Bpontera underrate tho intelligence of.. the., mos
ses of both Catholics and Protestants, though,
by these v’lje appeals to religious prejudices,
they Clearly exhibit thß blackness of their own
hearts. No Whig gentleman or .Christian will
conntenanco each efforts.”
Another Cob an Expedition Reported to
have Saiieo.—Advices from Madrid to the 21st
wit. state it was confidently reported that a tele,
graphio despatch had been received from the
Spanish ambassador at, Paris, stating that an
expedition had sailed from Chagres against Cabo,,
under the command of an American General.—
It was also said, in connection with the above,
that the Spanish , government —with whom the
American minister, Mr. Barringer, : bos hitherto
been successftil in obtaining' the pardon of the
prisoners brought there as,the result of the last
expedition—have set their faces against any fur
ther exhibition of clemency, and the fow who,
from one cause or. another, have not been
brought within the former pardons, and are still
at Ceuta, have little chance of getting out by
any such process.
Distress is Uarway.—The Galway papers
are full of the most deplorable accounts of wbolo
some evictions, or rather exterminations in that
miserable county. Tho tenantry are turned ont
of the cottages by scores ata time. As many as
1103 men women and children have been driven
upon the roads and ditches by way of one days
work; nnd have now no rosonreebut to begtheir
bread in desolate places, or to bury their griefs,
in many instances forever, within the walls of
the Union Werkhonse.
Gkf.f.i.f.y's Fiqcp.es.—The JTtu York Tribune
with its immense power of brass, can count as
probable for Scottonly-181 votes, a majority be
ing 149. To got tho, 134 it claims New York,
Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Kentucky, New Jersey,
Connecticut , and North Carolina! ! all of which
the people will “ probably” deduct. TheWhige
are beaten. They thus virtually give it up in

CUSTOM HOUSE APPROPRIATION. |
REMARKS OF 4fO*f. T,M. IIO’WIV
Wc have already announced that our member
of Congress, Hon. T. M. Howe, had succeeded
in procuring a farther appropriation pr $35,000,;
for the completion of the Custom House in. this
city. In the.Wooliington Qlahe. of the ldtlip wo
find the following remaris-of .Mr.; Howe,-: sus
taining his motion,' which we take great pleasure
m laying before our readers:
Mr. Tiiojias M. Howe.— l move the following
amendment:
For illr- coaij-irOc.] of :b<: cortom linuio and mherjn'b
ic uilicevroiineciedihercwllit o'. t J )U:iburph.?.]s,ol()
. During the Thirty-first Congress. : ikere were.-
appropriations made for four custom-houses at
lour different points in tho St.-, Louis,.
•Cinoiunnti, Louisville, and Pittsburgh. At the
two former there were appropriations of $75,000
■for • tho -purpose of constructing and building
these custom-houses. At tho two latter points
the language of the law is, that the cntirc.coat
of. building and the purchase of the sites Bhould
be $75,000.
There acema to me adlsoropancy in the ap
propriation between the several points. At the
.:city. of.,Pittsburgh, a lot has been purohased at
on expense of $35,000, lenviDg $40,000 for
building. This" Bum is '.entirely inadequate to
construct such a building as the public wants
require. It is n historical fact, that in the city
of Pittsburgh the public records-have been ex
posed to fire within the last five years. Tho
books and. papers of the custom-honso have been
placed in buildings which have been twice de
stroyed by fire within the last five years. It is
considered, ccptpQmy;ithe‘refore, dipou the part of
theGovermnciitto makoßQch appropriations—at
least my constituents think will.construct
n building which will bo fire-proof, arid I bare
no doubt that-gentlemen will concur with me and
my constituents hi that view of the subject,—
Forty thousand dollars is inadequate to.accom
plish that result, and I propose, therefore, to in
crease tho amount to $75,000 . for tho building,
nddiig: $86,000 to tho $-10,000 whioli now remain.
Thiß is the sum which has been recommended by
'the Secretary of tho Treasury,- as an amount
wliicb will constrnet a fire-proof; building. It ia
a less sum than has been asked'for and obtained
froth this committee by the gentleman froth Ken
tucky, [Me- Maubiialij,] and I propose to make
$85,000 additional, so as to make the whole sum
$75,000, placing us upon a par. with St. Louis
and Cincinnati. I hope the comraUtee.wiU award,
this sum for this purpose.
A Botl Memory or Something Worse.
Our readers are familiar with Gen. Scott’slet
ter to Mr. Archer, which was read before the
whignationsl convention by Mr. Holts. They
are also aware ot the fact that the General al
ludes to hie epistle of acceptance, but, strongoto
say, represents it as having been written after
the convention hnil conferred upon him tlionom
inationl
TMs is a matter of little moment, except so
far as it .either showa a treacherous.-memory or
a purpose to deceive—but in that light assumes
some consequence.
We place below, the Arobcr letter and tho al
lusion to it in tho letter of acceptance, .and ask
the attention of the puhlic and of Geii. Scott's
peculiar friends to the contradiction of tho blun
der, as a matter tbat requires explanation:—

“To Hon. it. Archer." :
Or.:;. Piebce —at a Whig.—• The following is
an extract from a letter written from C incord,
N. 11., by a New Fork Whig; to a friend in Al
bany, and published in tho Albany Argus. The
portrait of Gen, Pierce is a very truthfnl one,
except that he is not a •• man of property,’' iu
the usual acceptation of that 'phrase, it would
bo well for the public, and all worthy enterpri
ses and benevolent ohjcctu, if lie was: -
.“Frank: Fierce is o man of Cue address and
personal appearance; vety young looking for
bis age. There iB nothing of tho aristocrat
about him, but on the contrary, lie is one of the
most affable and approachable of men. As the
old- saying-is,.*hc has a heart liko an ox.’ His
parse and hand afo always open to the poor and
oppressed. Ho is a man of property, and has a
great reputation as a lawyer. If there is a sub
scription got up here for anything, you will al
ways find it beaded with Frank Pierce, and for
no small sum either. -He is the people’s mao,
and I hopo he will be tho people's President:
and if the people in other States arc os muoh
taken with tho Democratic nominee ns they nro
in Vermont and New Hampshire (whigs and all),
Frank Pierce will be the next President. His
name is in everybody’s month. I wish every
young man in the State of New York could ego
him and become acquainted with him, for I know
they would like him and would vote for him.”
Sickness on the Asia.— We regretted to see
the following statement in the Louisville Courier
of tho 12th:
Sickness os me Bteamer Asia.—The Asia,
Capt. Boyd, arrived at the wharf yesterday af
ternoon, from Pittsburgh, with a number of
German deck passengers for St Bonis, among
whom the prevailed. A man and a child
died on the. boat before reaching Cincinnati.
A passenger by the name of George Typert,
while walking along tho wharf, was very severe
ly attacked. A number of citisens attended to
him at once, and officer Dick Moore procured a
carriage and conveyed him to the hospital, whero
he arrived in a collapsed state.
Considerable excitement prevailed on the levee
in regard to the weather, and several of the pas
sengers were taken from the boat and provided
for. A woman and two or threo children were
taken to the hospital, and an old man, very fee
ble, was taken charge of by a party of onr Ger
man cititens. From what we ban learn, these
people had been very imprudent in their diet.—
Capt. Boyd proffered to pay all hospital charges.
Change—The St. Louis Signal, a paper start
ed some time since by an association of Journey
men printers in St. Louis, has changed hands,,
and has also changed its name. It now appears
under the cognomea of the '‘Miisouri Democrat”
Wo hope it will bo able to do something to pro
duce order among the enthusiastic democracy of
St; Louis, for, we are free to say, that with the
exception of the whigs, a more " head-ovor
heels” sett of politicionß than those who claim,
par excellence to.be tho shining lights—the great
magnets of tho democratic party in Missouri,
wo never - saw than tho democrats in. St. Louis..
We’ hope the Democrat will endeavor to improve
the political feelings in St. Louis, and advocate
tho principles of the party .without stepping or
stooping to ask whother an honest advocacy of
democratic principles would please or displease
the Benton or anti-Benton wings of the party,
The Choiera.—We regret to learn, that the
cholera, still, to some extent, prevails in Mays
ville. The Maysville Eagle, of Thursday last,
says:.
“Six deaths of cholera have occurred within
the last 24 hours. The disease, has assumed a
milder form,. and when taken in time," tho great
majority of cases yield rapidly ■ to prompt medi
cal treatment. , The weather is and has beea ex
tremely warm fov the last few days.”

Jons Vas Bucks axj) N. I*. Wilus.—Mr- Van
Buren bus published the letters addressed 1“ bin*
by N. P.. Willis, Esq., and accompanies them }>y r
a brief, explanatory letter, in whicb-be thus re
fere to Mr. Willis:
|•. “I do not need'to'bo told that I ought to,chas
tise him for this persevering indolence, but it
costs twenty-free hundred dollars to flog Mr.
Willie. llis health,’ho claims, baa- been ifeeblo
I for.years,;Bnd-his body-Beak; under such eir-
I cumstances, be procured himself to be flogged
by Mr. Forrest, and theu based on his physical

I suit . On-the trial of. that cansef our court held:
that no provocation wpuld justify a>r mitigate an
assault, unless so fresh that the aßSaiiant’a blood
| had not time to cool, before the- assault. The
decision is now under review. While it stands
I for law, .Mr. W illis can, for aught I see, write
I me insolent letters with impunity, from the high.
I seas, from: New Orleans and from liorrodsbnrg
Springs, and the luxnry of i punishing him for
I them when we meet is placed almost beyond the
I reach of uy limited means.”
Mr. Willig, it appears, was offended ttt some
of Mr. Van Buren’s remarks on the Forrest di-
I vorce ease, in which he was onn of the counsel.
I The first letter of -Mr. Willis to Mr. Tan Baron
was returned by the latter, through Gen. Morris,
I as being ‘'silly and scurrilous.” Mr. Willis then
> wrote another note, <lated New Orlean9, May 14,

I as a propercompanion for the. blackgaardswbose

I I followed by another letter from Mr. Willis, dated
p 1 Horrodsburg, Ky., June 12, to Mr. Van BureD,

lie relieved himself of his clerical duties one
summer by traveling rather incog. He went in
to a country church-in the north of England: one
; Sabbath morning, and heard the rector read a
Bermon. In coming from the church, the rector
I suspected ‘ him to be a brother of: the ministry,
| and spoke tohim. He received’ the rector’s cour
| tesies, and thanked him for the very edifying
sermon hebad preached, suggesting that it must
have been the result of a good deal of lahor.—
1 0, no,’ said the rector, '.we turn off these things
rapidly.On Friday afternoon and Saturday
morning I produced this discourse.’ ‘lsthat
I possible, Bir ? ’ said Dr. South; 'it tookme three
I weeks to write that very sermon.’ ‘ Your name

only to say that I am not ashamed to prcach.Dr.

“No man can obtain-high office without hav
ing soma strong points; and in spite of the com
mon disposition to disparage political opponents,
