When General POrter ws pominated,

aged to co . ; . .; the support ot the two

enigma whick we • .nno teolve,
No man — can Bert- two maSteri, is a
maxim that no man wi dispute. Then,
how, we ask; can General ' orte l r, if elect
ed, go with !anti satisfy th two parties
that are now supporting him, hich are
as wide apart on the great and a absorb
ing measure of the. administration, as the
antipodes? He cannot. - He must unite
himself with one of those parties, and a
bandon the other. After having been an
eye-witness during the last session of Con
gress of the overpowering influence of the
Executive, fo seduce to,abandon their
friends, and in total disregard of the inter
ests and wig of their constituents, 'to fol
low the lead, and in the _ walk of power,
we are at no-loss to make up an Opinion
for ourselves, which party will; be aban
doned, and which courted. The conser
vatives will find no more favor with Gen
eral Porter, ifite shall be elected, (in our
opinion) than those'who openly Oppose his
election. They will be cast off, and be
denounced in Pennsylvania, as they have
been in many other places, particularly
through the columns of the offitiial organ,
as "federalists," "traitors," “bank bought
renegades," "enemies to their .counity,"
and "opponent€ to the administration."
But were it otherwise, awl should Gen.
Porter disapprove of the Sub-Treasury,
after he enters . the Gubernatorial chair,
his election would be claimed as a tri-_
umph of .he administration and its mea
sures, and be heralded forth on the wings
of the wind as such, for effect of the elec
tions in other States, {particularly New
York,) which would be prodigious.•
It has been semi-officially announced in
the columns of the Glob, and in tie ad
dress of the Loco -Foci, portion of Con
gress, that the issue, is to be continued,
Sub-Treasury or no Sub treasury. Upon
that measure we have been told, is suspen
deci the fate of the Admmistration. Upon
it, Mr. Van Buren'a friends have declared
• that he "will sink or swim." • Every sa.
iteittus observer cannot fail to see, that
that must be the course he is now compel! ;
ed to pursue. He has adhered to it so
long, and urged it with such pertinency,
at
he rennet retreat and abandon it if
sired so to do. He must go forward.
tlo gh the yawning abyss into which it
will' inevitably carry him, was full to his
view before him.
Hope, Clot so often deludes by its eat.
taring tales, now ,buoys . Mr. Van Buren
aid his followers. An eyes are notiv. turn
ed towards P-onsylvania, the great Rey•
stone of then Union. If General Porter
shall be defeated, we believe that will end
the struggle; we feel confident that not e
ven an effort will be'made in another; the
baneful Sub treasury system and policy
will he immediately abandoned forever.—
If, on the contrary, he shall be elected, it
will be claimed as an administration tri
umph, and the Shouts of victory will re
sound from State to. State, and unparal
(Pled efforts will be made to carry the elec.
• . „
eon in otnerStates for the purpose of fast
e iiing that odio‘Os measure upon the Country.
It is under this important Position the
State of Pennsylvania now occupies, that
her election - loses its local and assumes a
national - character. The whole Union is
deeply interested, and will be equally effect
ed for weal or woe in the result. his that
which emboldened us to extend the length
of this article and give_thear3 views,
We have never - believed that' General
Porter could be elected under any circum•
stances whatever. Yet, wo may have un
der estimated the strength of those who
are united in his support, and ovue-estimat
s ed that of his antagonist.
In conclusion, we beseecii our frien4s in
the State of Pennsylvania, professing - the
Conservative Republican doctriees, who
are opposed to the Sub-treasury scheme.
from the belief that it is at *at with the
best interests ofthe eauntry,' to pause and

is supposed, of its proximity. to a vein of

One man whose house was much beset by bk.g

Another,. who had for some time excluded the

he received them with great presence of mind,

In 'a shop window, not far from Sit:eland Place.
London. we find the following announcement:
—"Wanted,a man 18 make ladies toorl." 7 —We
do not envy the individual whci undertaiieS The

will be anything but a sinecure.
Natural History.
The Mania.—The current number of the Fdr-
e'en Q.iarierly Review. put its seal to theitillow
ing atLcting paruculars respecting-the Llama.
Which at describes as authentie:—.•The Llama is
the only animal associated with man, and: Onde-
based by the contact. • The Llatna will heir net
they beating nor all treatment. They golon in
- troops, an Indian walking a lone distance ahead,
as guide. If tired they atop, and the Indian stops
also.. It the delay is great, the Indian betioniing
uneasy towards itunset, atter all sorts of precau
tions, resolves on supplicating the beasts to re
some their journey. He stands about
_filly or
sixty paces off, in an attitude of humility, wives
his hand coaxingly towards the Llainas, looks at
them with the tenderness, and, at the same, time,
in the stillest tone, and with a patience I 'never
failed to admire, reiterates it ic-ic ic. If the
Llamas are disposed to continued their course,
they follow the Indian in good order, at a 'regu
la r pace, and very fast, for their legs are extreme.
ly long ; but when they are in ill humour, they do
not even tarn their heads towards the speaher—
but remain motionless, huddled together, stand
ing or lying down, and gazing on heaven with
looks so tender, so melancholy that we might
imspire these singular animals had a conscious
ness of &bother life, of a happier existence. The
straight neck, and its gentle majesty of bearing,
the long down of their always clean and gkaisy
skin, their supple and timid motions, all give
them an air at once noble and sensitive. 'mast
be so, in fact ; for the Llama is the only creature
-employed hymen thet lie dares sot strike. i if tt
happens, (which is very seldom) that au Indian
wishes'to obtain, either by force or threats, that
e Llama will not willingly perform, the instaq
the animal feels itself off , ontect by word or-ges
tore, he mimes his head with digrrity.and without
attempting to escape ill treatment by Hight. (the
Llama IL never tied or fettered,) he lies
turning his looks towards heaven. Large tears
flaw freely from his 'beautiful eyes; sighe issue
from his breast, and in half or three quarters of
an host at most he expires.
Happy creatures, who io easily avoid sufferings
by 'death! Happy creatures, who, appear to have
accepted hie on condition of its being happy!
The respect shown these animals by the. Peru
elan Indians, amounts abiolutely to superititiims
reverence.—W hen the Indians lead . them, two
approach and caress the animal, hiding his head
that he may nut see the burden on his back, Hite
did he would fall down and die. It is the same
in unloadirig.—lf the burden exceeds a certain
weight the animal throws itself down etc! dies.
The Indians iof the Cordilleras alone possess e
nough patience and genteelness to manage the
Llama. It is doubtless from this extrarlimuy
companion that he has learned to die when over
tasked."
"If-he [Gov. gluier] is a farmer, let him go Bs
the plough."—This toast was given by a. Phila.
c'elphian at a Loco Foco meeting in Whitemarsh.
The 'sentiment' is such as we might expect from
"the party." Farmers must all stick fatkeidattge.
Although they are the "bone - and sinew, of the
land," and although they pay the majority of
taxes, tur well as do the voting, they must dot(says
the Loco Foco toaster) vote for a man of their
choice, if he .is a farmer. No farmer must aspire
toor accept any office. No, says this pretended.
,Democrat: "If you are a farmer, go tothe ploiigh."
Stand back! farmer Ratner, and make room, for
lawyer porter? Will the FARMERS join iin th
