In tbooctivepnrauits of life; requiring his j>et-,
sonal attention some eight or ten-hours a day.-
There are occasions, however, when those who
are actively engaged in business in the city, can
find a little leisuro Intake a jaunt for'nfew days
into the country, to shake off the cares of life,
and forget, n while, “ tho ills that flesh -Is

places, in. the vicinity of- the city, which aro
easy of access,-where tired nature -may fin’d re

ride of the city, where afewdayeenn be more

Merrick House, at, that .village,- is large and
pleasantly situated, and every attention is paid
to tho comfort-of the guests by the gentlemanly
proprietor. A large number of Pittsburghcis.
congregate there daring the summer months,
and form a-very, agreeable little community.-

i The Fobeios Appoihtmeiits appear to engage
i the special attention of oomo of oitr.cotempora
ries, and while many grate! about them, others
receive "them with faint praise. ■ WO know that
this claasof appointments has caused tho: nd
i ministration 1 more trouble than any other, and
that its most industrious efforts have been used
to moke them satisfactory. .That.they have
been so, wo believe time 'will prove.
It is hard for an incoming administration :to
■ please eyery body. Thero are more offices
■ eonght for than there, are offices to givo, and
consequently, the disappointed, . : in most , cases,
will feel chagrined. This we believe is the case
;withmany of those who did not got foreign opr
poinlments; bat we are very!certain, that many
of. them will say, that-their fortunate oompeti
-1 tora are less competent or deserving than they
are themselves. : The President has taken spe
i oialcore in these appointments, and we. believe
i that bis: course will meet tho approbation of tho
country. . ; ...
' The Now York Aldermen have got into
fresh trouble. They lately gate to Messrs. Rnss

Mr- H. B. Wellman, of Massillon, was then
called - for,- and be- likewise declined, on the
ground that ho came there as a spectator.' Ho
-had-heard of various grievances, nnd'Should like:
to see them substantiated, or cleared up.
: : Directors Bynob: and Barwiil arose, and stated,
■that they were prepared to vindicate the official
conduct of the Company, If any charges were
made.. ,
The Committee on Besolatians returned, and
reported the following, whioh were adopted, with
a few dissenting voices:
.1 Whereas, -The citizens of Wooster and Wayne
county* in the original organization of the 0. & i
P. B. 8., enlißted; their energies and embarked i
their- means, in full ,confidence that the road i
would advance .the interests and prosperity of
the county; therefore, ■
y- Sttolvedi That the citizens were originally,
and st'dl are friendly to the Boad, but have been
disappointed in. their expectations, by tbe mal
administration and selfishness of the present
Board of. Directors:
.Ist, :In the wasteful oxpenditnre:of money in
theiconstruction of the Bond. ■ ■*
2d. The personal speculation of individuals of
said Board, to the Injury of the Bond. .
Bd. Befusal ta transport the property of Indi
viduals, whose business; competes with that of
the Directors. i
Atb- Smlvedi Thatwo.wiH appoint a commit
tee to co-operate with, other, towns in endeavor
ing to havo the present Board removed, pro
vided thess grievances are not remedied.
Mr. Foreman offered the following:
Raolccd, That the tendenoy of the courso of
the 0. & P. B. B. Co. is to compel the produce,
and dealers iu produce in Wayne county, to seek
an inferior market, to the exclusion of a higher
and every way superior one at Cleveland* by giv
ing preference, in the conveyance of produce, to
buyers who transport through the entire length
of the road
Mb. Fdatteev, explanatory of the above, of
fercdtbe following:
Resolved, That the course ofthe 0. &P.B. B.
Co;, in giving Zadok Sireet, a Dircctor’of said
Boad* the monopoly of cars at Wooster, almost
to;the exclusion. of the wheat buyers of this
place* by which means, the price of wheat is so
; reduced here,/as to warrant the farmers of our
county to take their wheat by teams to Massilon
and Fulton, is unfair to th e wheat buyers of onr
town, and unfair-and unjust to (be citizens of
this county, who gave of their means to build
this road, and justly merits their disapproba
tion, and indignation.
■ After their adoption, Mr. Paudee. arose and
defended the Company from the charges specified
above. His remarks were brief bat .rather hu
morous. Then Messrs.- Plattert and Well
■ mas. In defence of the resolutions spoke, and
Mr, Lvscn replied. Mr. McSwßeskv was then
loudly called for, and responded in a long and
exceedingly .fiery specoh, in which he denounced
the conduct: of. the Company in unmeasured
terms, and proved; very , clearly, that there has
been; mismanagement on the part of the officers
of the road.' His remarks were exceedingly bit
ter. against the Company.butparticnlariy against
Mr. Join? Darwiee; Messrs. pAnoEn, Lvscn,
and Larsviee, in behalf of the Ccmpany, replied
-in jv few brief remarks.
In the conclusion, Mr. McSweeket moved to
takeaaothcr vote aa tlio resolutions which was
done, and then they were unanimously adopted,
amid the shouts of the crowd;
, The committee required -by tho 4lb resolution
was then appointed. It consists of Messrs. Lu

Pursuant to previous notieo given tbo friends

especially that portion of them whoso wish and
interest it is that the road should take the Eliza
beth route, assembled in largo numbers at the
sohool-bouse, in the borough of Elizabeth, on
tho 2dth instant. The meeting was organized
by Sam. Frew, "Esq., acting os President, and
John E. Bhnffcr, os Secretary. Mr. Frctr ex
plained tho object of the meeting, and then, at
considerable length, discoßsod and explained tbo
various.-routes proposed, comparing their dis
tances attd merits. He stated, tbat by tbe sav
veyed route, along the Yoaghiogbcny river the
distance was laid down at fifty-soven miles, and
that, from the moßt reliable authority, ho could
show the.rood ordinarily traveled from Connells
villo to Birmingham was only thirty-nine miles,
thus making n difference of sixteen miles in the
two routes. Tbe spoaker was of opinion that
even this lattor. distance might be considerably
shortened by a survey, and. that its praetica
bility, independent of any other consideration,
was as great as tbe roate by tho Yougbiogheny.
He clearly and forcibly elucidated many other
points, bat the time forbids detailing them.
After Mr. Frew concluded his remarks, the
meeting appointed various committees: one to
attepd and facilitate the corps of engineers when
theymake their experimental survey on this
ronte,-ono to ascertain what amount of stock
oould .be obtained provided tbe railroad comes
through Elizabeth township, and one to attend
the stockholders - meeting,. to be held in Pitts

meeting bo published la the papers of Pitts

WHO IS THE EDITOR OP THE WASH'
INGTON tINIOJfI
Tho reader sees at the bend of the central pa
per of the democratic party, -tkoM words, elm
ply, “ By .Robert Armstrong.”- The politician
visiting Washington cityv tho Mecca ofpoHticions,
is desirous oftnaking the acquaintance of a man
.Tjha holds tho important position-of editor of tho
Union. Let him go to the tl L'nio:i office,” and
at almost any time, from eight o'clock in tho
morning to eleven at night, ho will find him .sit
ting in a small room, a noble end benevolent
lookiog old gentleman, Bixty years of ago, porlly
in figure, nbout;fi»e feet ten inches in.height,
with a modeot ami quiet hot firm, hearing, with
a Roman contour of features, and hairwbite and
soft; givin'g, at "the same: time, a stately and
venerable appearance; a man,, who from his
fignro and complexion -would be called a “good
liver,” but whoso, activity,;and intellectual ex
pression, does not permit the idea of a- person
devoted to sensual enjoyment,—that is General
Armstrong, the editor-and-proprietor of the,
‘•Union,” and tho government printer.- The
visitor will seo several other gcntlemen-about tho;
ofiico, writing or examining Jhe < exchanges, who
may be introduced as editors, or writers,-but the
editor in fact, who alone is responsible, and who
examines and revises all the matter for. his pa-;
per, Is Gen. Armstrong. : , ■
Who, then, is Gen. Armstrong? Andwhnt is
his history ? Gsn. Armstrong was tho most in
timate friend,‘for more than thirty years, of Gen.
Jackson. So warm nnd Intimate was the friend
ship for Gent Armstrong, that he chose him from
all the men in the country ns the: fittest man to
inherit his sword. What, a testimonial! It
was,l’ to use the language of Mr.-Blair,-then
oditor of the Globe, “ a mark of respect worth
tnuoh more than tho knighthood and nobility be
stowed now-a-days by European sovereigns! It
was,the gift of his own sword, worn on -fields
of-battle where ho had . seen Gon. Armstrong
perform feats of valor becoming -a chief under
the lion-hearted Richard." Mr.,A. 0. P. Nich
olson, writing from Nashville to Mr. Blair, Octo
. bar 29,1814, thus describes , the scene of tho
presentation of thevsword. He says, “Ihavo
just returned from a visit to theHermitago, and
must take tho liberty- of describing to you an
interesting scene which.l witnessed there to-day.
Gen. Armstrong and mysolf were the only,per
sons present. We found tho old General In very
delicate health * * His face was pale, and
his countenance indicated severe suffering. Still
be was seated at his table surroanded with books,
letters and papers * * Whilst we were seat
ed in bis room, engaged in conversation, he took,
np his pen : and was oconpicd for a few minutes
in writing at his table. Ho thon requested mo
to draw out from under the sofa on which I was
sitting a small pine box, and to take off the top
of it. On doing so, I discovered that the box
contained a Bword. Tho-old General remarked
to me tbat as ho saw that his remaining days
must be fow, he felt that it was tlmo he was ma
kings disposition of that, sword which had been
his companion during the greatest portion of the
last Indian and British -war. Turning to Gen.
Armstrong, he remarked, “I desire, General, to
make you a tender of that Bword, which I hope
-you will accept, and which 1 knowyou will never
dishonor,”—at the same timo handing to Gen.
Armstrong the paper - drawn up on his table,
whioh-contained a most brilliant tribute to tho
bravery and patriotism of that gallant-soldier.
Gen, Armstrong accepted the swnrd, and with
the deepest emotion thanked him for tho honor
cqnferred on him in being solcoted-as the deposi
tory ot so invaluable a relic of. bravery and pa
triotism. Goa. Jackßon’s sword, tho trusty com
panion of his. signal vlotories ns a warrior, is
now hold by his faithful friend and chivalrous
fellow-soldier, Gen. Robert Armstrong, . Whilst
Gen. Armstrong cherishes this faithfnl companion
of; the old hero as the richest memento that,be
| can give him, he still feels tbalbe only bolds it 1
i assa frustee-for his country, ready to' usnit in
i defence of her honor, or surrender- it up to.bo;
i held by the nation to repose by tho side of the
sword, of General Washington! and to make
“Is • precious -gilt more.-sacred and- bind
ing, and to give it a- character of more pub
lic.importance, Gen. Jaokaon 1 bequeaths in • his
will in the following words—;“ As a memento of
my high regard for. Gon. Bohert Armstrong,’, as
a gentleman, patriot and soldier,-us well as for
hiß ; meritoriousmilitary '.services under my oom
mapd, daring the late British and Indian war,
and remembering the gallantboaring of him and

rnent. He was the intimate andconfidential friend
of three. Presidents. No monhnowsTjettcr the
motives-and actions,, both secret and public, of
publiomcu.' Had Gem Armstrong sought fame od
the arena -of political'life, he conli have found
it. But thoogh it did not suit his disposition to.
‘enter into the strife for political honors, he was
everready to fight with his sword for his coun
try or for liberty.
While holding the lucrative poßt of consul at
Xiverpool, the most lucrative in the gift of the
government/ he begged President Folk to accept
bis resignation and permit him to go to Mexico
In his letter to the President he says:. ‘‘lt would
be on unpardotmble wrong if the inheritor ofthe
! sword of Qen. Jackson, worn at thebattle of Now
[ Orleans, should spend his time in cose in a for-
I eign land, whilst his countrymen at: home were
braving the dangers of a just and holy war.—
No! that sword-:mast be again unsheathed,
and, as in 1815; most once more prove the in- i
strament for avenging the wrongs of my
country.” i
Not only had Qen; Armstrong an ardent pa- 1
triotism-ready to fight, and, if need be to die for
his country; but:he loved the cause of liberty
everywhere; and has a heart to feel for . the op- 1
pressed people of all nations/ His is not a sel
fish patriotism, Wonld.oar foreign -na'turalized i
citizens know this noi^oold man? Would the j
Hungarian, oud all the oppressed people of-|
Europe who are thrownr upon our shores, knew I
what sympathy be had for them ? Go back to |
the period whoa the Hungarian war was at its |
crisis, when peoplo breathed anxiously as they i
listened to courier after courier of thenews from !
Hungary, then this white headed venerable old
man, regardless of the ties of family, or the perils
of suchawar, with his heart full of sympathy and
bravery, went to the Hungarian ngont in Paris,
and offered his services to fight for the Hungs
rionpeople. ■ Test tho inheritor of that “glo
rious sword”-.of tho immortal Jackson, would
have unsheathed it in the cause of European
liberty. Tho astounding news of the tgtal over
throw of Hungary by:-the combined armies of
Hussia and Austria, prevented him from reach
ing and fighting for the country of the ■ Mngyar;

. ; Hamlet.-.
The European correspondent of the Spring
field (III.) Republican, writing from Elsneur,
■Denmark, Bays: -
“ Hero is shown Hamlet’s grave, evidently of
rather modern date. ; Of this a German rater
says: ‘A more striking homage has probably
never been to the genius of a poet than when
particular burial places are assigned even to the
creations of bis imagination;’ while an English
writer, who regards the matter from a more-his
torical point of view, says: ‘ Any heap of stones
with Runio inscriptions upon them, and said to
denote Hamlet’s grave, will be in vain searched
for here, even if they ever existed. In fact,
Hamlet’s identification with this enchanting spot
is, at best, but a«Shakspearean fiction: Ham
let’s country was not Zealand but Jutland. Here
the name was pronounced' Amlet,- signifying
madman. According- to the. Danish history- of
old Saxo-Gramma tie us, (he wrote about tho com
mencement of the thirteenth century;) -Hamlet
was not the son of a Danish king, but of a fam
ous pirate chief, who was Governor of Jutland,-
in connection with his brother, . Hamlet’s father
married the daughter of a Danish king, and the
is3uo of that marriage was Hamlet Hamlet’s
father was subsequently murdered by his broth
er, who married the widow aud succeeded to the
-government of the whole of Jutland. ’ As a Pa
gan, it - was - Hamlet’s first duty to avenge his
-father. Tbs better to conceal bis purpose, be
feigned madness. His undo suspecting it to be
feigned, sent him to England; with• a request to
•the king that he would put Han3et to death. He
■was accompanied by-two creatures of his unde,
Whoso letter to the Eoglish king was carved up
on wood, according to the custom of thatperiod.
This, Hamlet, during tho voyage, contrived to
get possession of, ana so altered the characters
as to make it nTfcqnest that his two companions
should bo slain,-whioh was accordingly done on
their arrival in England. He afterwards mar
ried the daughter of-the English king, but sub
sequently returned to Jntlaod, and still feigning
madness, contrived to surprise and slay hia un
olo, ofterupbraidlng him with his various crimes.
Hamlet then became Governor of. Jutland, was
married a second time; to a-Queen of Scotland,
and was eventually killed in battle.’ The whole
history, of Hamlot is carefully and minutely de
tailed; but these; are-tho leading historical fea
tures'on which Shakspcaro founded his bcauUfnl
tragedy; and; rudo and disgusting as many of
.the incidents in Hamlet’s life were, tho mode in
which Shakspearo has treated them ls oneof tho
greatest proofs of his splendid genius. ’ Accord
ing to Soso, Hamlet lived about four centuries
before Chrlßt.”
