THE MOS TRADE.
The recent rise in the prices of Iron and
the prefent flattering prospects of the mar
ket have already become subjects of general
interest and comment with the press of this
country. We have 'before 'alluded to them
and cautioned our readers against the fatal,
consequences that must inevitably follow this
specious delusion of the English capitalists,
and as surelferush those of our countrymen,
who thoughtlessly embark in the trade, with.
out any safer guarantee of its future prospe
rity, than the present accidental inflation of
the market.
The Philadelphia Neirs, discussing this
subject and predicting the fatal result of the
present state of things, recalls the history of
the trade, several years ago, as thcingh 'to re
fresh the memory - ol its readers,. that they
may profit by past- experienCe, and also to
show that it is but natural, under the circum
stances, that a favorable re-action should take
.• •
place in the trade. The writer says :
" But a few Months ego our iron markets were
overstocked with Pig Iron, and those who could
dispose of theirs at $2O a ton were glad to pocket
that and go their way rejoicing for being sosortun
ate. Foreign competition; under the operations 9f
'the Tariff of 1846, had glutted the market with tor
sign Iron at prices at which it was impossible for
American manufacturers to sell theirs, and save
themselves from bankruptcy. They were wear
flingly compelled to blow out their furnaces, .dis
charge their workmen, and surrender their proper
ty to satisfy the judgments which had accumulated
against thim. „Thus one furnace after another fell
under the hammer of the Sheriff. imtdalmost entire
counties in the western part of this State had been
sold outby him, and thousands upon thou-ands of
dollars of property had been. sacrificed by these
forcea sales.
As an • illustration of the truth of our statement,
we need but to refer to a :able of statistics, which
:was published about a year since by the Pittsburg
Commercsal Jortrzull, showing that there were IS
furnaces in Mercer County, capable of producing
24,950 tons of Pig Iron;• and furnishing employ
ment for 1800 men. Of-these all were blown out,
under the Operation of the Tariff of 1846, but 3,
which employ about 230 men. Thus. it will he
perceived, the ruinous competition of British Iron
manufacturers under the present ad enlorem sys
tem,closecl fifteen establishments in one countv,and
threw out of employment some fifteen huridred
men, whose families were dependent upon them for
a livelihood. Disaster and ruin stalked over the
the whole county, and distress and destitutiou were
the inevitable consequences. And why this sacri
fice? Simply because Robert I. Walker thought
proper to fasten upon this country a Tariff which
he dubbed Democratic, and had therefore to be ad-
tiered to and be sustained by the-so-called Democra
tic party. The British Iron Manufacturers, with
millions of capital at their command, and who are
never governed by the cost of productidn in belling
their commodity, saw the door open 'to them to
overstock our markets with their Iron, undersell
our manufacturers, and crush our infant establish
ments. They avail themselves of the opportunity,
and the result of the experiment is before us."
This is the true, legitimate result of the op
erations of the Tariff of '46. and the present
sudden rise in the prices of Iron must either
be attributed to the design of cunning politi
ciang, an accidental demand on the Continent
for tharticle or the natural tendency of the
'trade/(now that the present Tariff has ac
. .
complished - its work, in crushing American
enterprise and throwing the business almost.
exclusively into the hands of English manu
facturers) to revert to its original conditions.
But waving this question, fur the present,
touching to which of these three causes the
Iron men are indebted for their present
" streak of luck," one thing is certain, they
do not owe it to the Tariff of '46; for his noto
rious that it has heretofore utterly 'faded in
all the essential elements of success predic
ted for it by its famous - authdr.
The price of Pig , lron is now almost as
high as it was before the enactment of the
present Tariff, and it may, possibly,-be still
higher,--we hope it will. It is a source of
gratification to every American io see auyisr
title go up in the market, in whose produc.
'Lion lalhor,the' bone and sinew,' of our country
enters largely.
,But what wit! be the effect?
Let us answer in the pertinent and forcible
language of the .Netri:
"-Hundreds of inexperienced men, who cannot
see the bun in the way, will rush into the business,
building furnaces and rolling pulls acting upon the
belief that the present condition of the market is to
be permanent. It will take about two years to build.
stock, and fairly start new works. :Meanwhile those
now in the business, and who have hail capital
enough to stem the adverse ebb, tide of the last
three years, will 'reap a harvest. Al the enthof the
next two years both old and new will start fairly
together:British Iron finding a greater competition
here than' ever, tied the supply now beinggreater
than the demand, the ebb tide will -Set in again. as
strong as ever, for another three yearn, creating dis
aster and ruin among the new e.tab ishments, ma
king, as last year, fine business for the Sheriff; and
affording another practical illustration of the beau
ties of the ad valorem system, ridi , ulously called
Free-Trade." I
Our only fear is that the p7/du re is but too
truthfully drawn. We cannot see how it can
be otherwise, where there is no permanent
basis of security to the trade, tS build upon.
-All eyes will be turned to the next Congress,
for its action on this subject. The Democrats
will' then have things 84 their own way, the
officious Whigs, :bey so often complain of,
°will no longer be in their road, and it the
country suffers for want of proper legislation,
it will be easy to know at whose door to lay
the blame. _
AMERICAN IRON'
It is a matter of national importance to all
engaged in the Iron trade, both in the manu
lacture and Use of the article, to know the
comparative value of the English and Amer
ican manufactures.
The following from the American R. R.
Journal—goiad authority on the subject—
gives the decided preference to the American
article :
The testimony of, the celebrated metallurgist, Dr.
Mushat, of Scotland, is decisive. He says that
scotch bars do not contain more than 00 per cent.
of pure metal; whereas American Iron contains 99
per cent. But we...have evidence on this score
stronger than an opinion founded on chemical anal
ysis. Late experiments at the Washin s gtoit Navy
Yard demonstrated, that English chain cable, of a
certain thickness of diameter, was ruptured by a
. breaking strain of 716 pounds less than 'was requi. ,
red to rupture American chain cable of the- same
diameter.
During the experiments at the Washington NaVy
Yard,the strength of a chain of French manufacture
was also tried. It yielded at a breaking strain of
1081 pounds. while an American chain of the same
thickness only yielded at a strain .611277 pounds.
Similar results followed after over two hundred tests.
With re-ar,, to Scotch and domestic iron, it is
shows that the tenacity of the latter • was more
than double that of the former! These are impor
tant considerations, but they seeem to be gener
ally overlooked by congress, or are entirely un
healed. su
Life is daily jeoparded on our railroads. The
bursting of a-wheel, or the breaking of an axle, may
entail death and rni.ery upon hundreds.. What pro.
teetion have we against such casualties. while we
persist in the use of foreign iron? About a year
since a wheel burst upon the Reading railroad, by
which, a number of coal cars were precipitated
oter a itee_p embankurtnt. To 81 appearances the
wheel had been sound. But at closer inspection
brought oat the fact that it had been cast out of
iron of only 88 per cent. purity. We do not charge
that deliberate fmudi arc perpetrated by the Bra.
ish iron master; butbrands which he sells at £6
811. per ton, are changed to brands that bring in the
market XS per ton, and the domestic importer is
the first to palm off the imposition. Congress
cannot enact a law to prevent these outrages, but
it can pass a law imposing heavy duties on Iron,
and the consequence will be, that American iron
wilt come into general use and the foreign arti
cle be partially excluded by the superiority of the
former.

TUE SHCPL 3141.171.0AT103 COMPANY.
We copy the followitig interesting and
important article from the Philadelphia North l
Anierican, in relation to the affairs, trade,
/cc., of the above named Company. The
Editors having every facility for becoming
thoroughly acquainted with the resources
and business,of the Company; the snick
cannot fail to enlist a' general interest, on
the part of all connected with the trade:
No one of the great coal carrying companies is
more exclusively Philadelphian than the &he,*
kill Navigation. Its original stock and its snouts.
sive mans have been contributed almost entirely by
Philadelphia capitalists. It was at one time uni
versally considered the safest and most aubstantiel
investment that :he city afforded, and a very large
amount of its original contributiowt came from
those comparatively retired from :antral:coined—
trustees of charitable institutions, the guardians of
minors, private families, and others living on rents,
and requiring secure and steady incomes. Yet, no
one of these companies has experienced such wild
fluctations of fortune. Believing, oNwe do, that
the company hss at. length settled down upon
so:nen:mg like a permanent basks,. we propose to
give its affairs a careful and somewhat extended
examination, with a view to the fdrmation of some
definite coining/la as to its actual condition and
value. •
The company . during thePresentyear has under
gone an organic change, of the full bearings of
which the public generally seem not to be aware.
Before proceeding, however, to explain the nature
Wad extent es this change, we will give a brief el.-
tom of its previous embarrassment.
The Schuylkill Navigation Company. like near
ly all similar institutions that have undertaken to
le pioneer. in commercial enter Pris e, has sunk
large amount of capital. What we mean foamy is
thi.. Could the proprietors now begin the work
anew, with Cash in hand, and with the knowledge
of the. business that an experience of thirty-fire
years ha. given them, they might, without doubt,
erect, for six or seven millions ofidollars, a work
which has. in fact, cost them more than ten mil
haw. This, bolsterer, with rare exceptions, lathe
history of every new business, large or small.
The Schuylkill Navigation Company was incor
porated Marsh 8, 1815, with a capital of only half
a million. In an address of the Managers, in 1817,
among other item. of productiveness in the work
then under way, they mention the probability that
coal might one day be carried along the Schuylkill
to the amount of ten thousand tons per annum . ! So
little idea had the most sagacious capitalists of that
sday of the enormous .growth of the Pennsylvania
coal trade, which has- already swelled to nearly
live millions of tons per annum, and which is stea
dily' doubling itself every five or, six rears. The
works originally constructed were, of course, in
accordance with the supposed wants of the trade.
The whole line of navigation was completed of
suffiCient capacity to pass boati of 28 to 30„tons
heathen.
Increase of business obliged the managers after
wards to extend their plans. The canals and the
slackwater pools were - deepened from time to time,
the locks originally constructed were replaced by
huger ones, and an eat ire double set was made, so
that boats of 801ons'could pass freely through the
whole tine. This was i.ubstantially the condition
of the works as early as 1832. ' The single item of
coal tonnage had then increased to over 200,000
tons, and the annual receipts of the Company to
over $250,000.
For the next ten years, from 1632 to 1842, the
affairs of the institution were in the full tide of proa- -
perity. The - business gradually swelled to over
.500,000 tons, and receipts to tour, five, and some
times more than six hundred thousand dollars:Am
ple - dividends were made, loans were obtained,
when needed, at 4; and 5 per cent ; and shaves,
which cost originally 650, were sold as high as
$1 75, and even $lBO.
The construction of the Readinol.ailroad along
'the line of the Schuylkill,introduclad a new ele
ment into. the freighting business of this region, es—
pecially in-that which had come to be its main
item—the coal trade. The railroad found itself
able to carry coal at prices greatly below those
formerly charged upon the canal. An active, and
indeed bitterly hostile competition followed, in re
gard to the merits of which, as a question of com
mercial ethics, it is not our intention to speak.—
One fact is now clear to all parties. The enor
mous sacrifices made in the general scramble for
the coal trade, were altogether gratuitous. The
trade has already grown to such gigantic &men
slobs. that all the great coat-tarrying companies
are likely.to have quite as- much to do as their
works will allow, and pretty much at their own
prices. But it was difficult to realize, indeed "it
would have been thought madness, to imagine, iu
1842, the extent of the coal trade in 1652.
The Managers of the Schuylkill Navigation
Company, in view of the dangerous rivalry with
whin they were threatened, and of the constant
increase and importance of the coal trade, felt it to
be necessary to devise some means by which coal
couldbe brought to market, through their works,
at a less expense than it had heretofore been done.
It was believed that it cost just about its touch
bring down a boat laden with SO tons as it would
to bring down one laden with 180, or even 200
tons. • A' still further and greater enlargement of
the canatettierefore, was determined on in the win
ter of 1845. This enlargement occupied the whole
of the boating session of 1840. During its pro
gress, the Compary were, of course, without re
ceipts fmin - freights, suffering thereby a loss of
some 5250,000. Their investments were, at the
same time, increased from 53.400.000 to $6 : 300,-
000, and about 81,500,000 of this was in the shape
of a dangerous floating debt.
The income of 1847, at the low rate to which
the competition still kept the tolls, proved to be
not sufficient to pay the interest on the loans, and
at the close of that year the company suspended
payment. In the final settlement with its creditors
which followed, the floating debt was liquidated by
an issue of certificate+ of loan, at a discount of 50
per cent., and the total investment was swelled to
abraft . $5.400,000.
1545, the competition between the canal com
panies was kept up at the same ruinous rates, and
in the tutumn of that year the Schuylkill company
was again obliged not only to suspend payment on
its loans, but also to effect a new settlement, and at
increased sacrifices, with other, creditors besides
the loan-holders.
In 1649, tat rival companies begun to learn the
lesion which the extraordinary growth of the coal
bikhness should hare earlier taught them. Varier
these new views, an arrangement was made which
had for its object an equitable division of the trade,
and on terms renumerative to all parties. On this
basis, the Schuylkill company. during 1849 and
1850, began to rally from an apparently hopeless
condition. The payment of interest on its loans
was resumed, and large arrears of Interests were
liquidated, and there was a reasonable prospect of
being able not only to pay the current interest, but•
also gradually, in the course of. a year or two, to
pay oil all the arrears, without increasing still fur
ther its permanent debt.
.In this posture of affairs a new disaster occur
red. In July, 1850, a heavy freshet took place,
which injured materially the canal at points which
had not been sufficiently protected. The effect
of these injuries was to require an expenditure of
about 880,000 at a time when the Company could
ill afford to spare it, besidess interrupting the na
vigation for several weektrin the very heat "of the
season. The repairs were Willy completed, and
the Company were in the midst of paying the quar
terly interests on their loans, when the great flood
of September, 1850, came. It found them in the
worst possible condition—without cash, credit, or
revenue ; and obliged them, in the face of all this,
to make an immediate additional expenditure of
not less than $275,000 in repairs, or go into final
insolvency.
By strenuous exertions and fresh sacrifices the
work was at length repaired, and with such im
provements as the latest experience both here and
elsewhere suggested. But in 1851, owing chiefly
to the movements of the coal compsinies located in
New York, the coal trade again becarne,the subject
of fierce and ruinous competition. The result, f to
the Schuylkill, was renewed embariassment.With
a greatly increased business, the receipts were yet
not sufficient to meet their necessities. Arrears of
interest had been accumulating to the, amount of
nearly a million of dollars, on some of their loans,
since July, 1849, and on the rest since June, 18.50.
The creditors of the Company were becoming cla
morous. Some brought suits, others threatened to
do so. A crisis was evidently athand. The Com
pany must either make a general assignment, or
some new legislation must be invoked, by which
its affairs might be placed 'on a better defined and
more secure basis. The latter part of this alterna
tive was ,adopted.
The object of the legislation of April 7th, 18:4,
will be apparent from the following exhibit of the
condition of the Company on the lst of January:

The various iteins of indebtedness were payable
at different limes, with varying priorities, and under
various and complicated securities. The amounts
; past due were naturally those moat pressing, while
at the sum time they were least secured, es being
the latest incurred. By looking over the table, it
will be seen at a glance that there was something
leis than 52,000,000, including the early mortgage
loans, perfectly immured, even in cue of the ulti
mate'faildre of the Compaq, but liable to occa
sional interruptions in The payment of interest. The
rest of the loans and floating debt, amounting to lit
tle over 64,000,000, were all on nearly arouunon
basis, as far as the noisy of the cue was concern
ad, and Were 'resonant well secured, provided an
arrangement might he made by which, in case of
any temporary casualty, the Compaq could be
saved (Mal being again driven to the wall. It was
suppssec_i that the Company might, in every pouf
bin edautipmey,find.withottt danger of utterrup•
tion, pay the interest on the angina? mortgage
lams, awl on, at least, twodhirds of the remaining
debt. Ir was proposed, therefore, to the common
creditors Ire in all about $0,000,000 of
the debt) that each ' should divide his claim

well secured, while the remaining 35 pee cent.
Would constitute a PrefteredStock, on which
Wire might, or might, not, be dividends, according
to the varyner contingswies of particular seszons.
Such, is an outline of the plan contemplated by the
Managers of the Compay in obtaining from the
"the Act dAprd 7th, 1852.
provisions Th e of the Act were necessarily
very complex, in consequence of the complexity ot
the allays of the Company to which it was to be
applied: But they were suificiedly comp:then
:are, and they have worked out a very
predict:l vault. Under the operation of ibis law,
the debts of the Company, from some twelve or fit -
different
classes, and falling due at as many
different periods, have all been reduced to two
classes, viz.: the Old Mortgage Loans, with the
time extended uniformly to 1872, ands New Mort
gage Loan, all bearing even date, and reimbursible
in 1882. Omitting unimportant fractions, the con
dittos:- of the Company, at the present ume, may be
represented substantially as follows:
Old Mortgage Loans, 81,800,000
New Mortgage Loans, 4,000,000
Preferred Stock, 2,500,000
Old Stock, 2,000,000
Total, - $10,300,000
Besides the above, there are special loans of a
'moderate amount, made to secure the .axistruction
of cars and boats. These, however, are run! se
cured by the boats and cars themselves, and are
not to be considered as forming any put of, the per
manent liabilities. The Company, therefore, isnow
tree from all Boating debt, and has its works well
equipped; and In complete repair, while its main
busiort4 has assumed such a shape is to warrant a
reasonable expectation of a continuance of the pre
sent amicable -elation* of all the great coal carry ing
interests. The question, then, for the capitalist
is, can the company, after paying the interest on its
debt as above adjusted, make any dividend on its
stock, end when?

shortly to supply his place ; and also to elect a Lt.
Colonel—J. M. Wetherill, filling that office, having
likewise resigned. The only candidates for the
Colonelcv as far aiwe know, are Lieut. Colonel
Wetherill and Adjutant E. McDonald ; for the sec
ond office, Lt. Thomas Johnson, —W. Reifsnyder.
A meeting of the officers of the Companies of the
Regiment, was called on Monday Evening last, to
formally nominate candidates for the vacant offices.
Capt. Lefever Womelsdorf was called to the chair;
Frank Poll appointed Secretary, and the object of
The meeting stated, when the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted :
Resolved; That in consideration of there not be

of Companies present, we deem it inexpedient to
nominate at this time any person for the vacant
office of Colonel and,Lieut Colonel.
Resolved, That we do not consider our action
at this time final, but hold ourselves in readiness
to meet at any time when a full representation of
the commifoned officers can be bad.
On moti ti, the proceedings were ordered to be
published in all the Borough papers.
On motion, adjourned.

as we previously announced, at Port Richmond
and was brought back to Pottsville on Saturday
night last. 'He conferred to the robbery almost im

LIQUOR LAW IN RHODE ISLAND.
The Mayor of Providence : sends the Adnoa
cam 'of that city the following statistics,
which are of importance as exhibiting the
working of the new,!yst'em there.
MAYOR'S OFFICE, Providence, Nov. 4, 1832
To oblige a large number of citizens, who have
made inquiry touching these matters, I present the
follatviag statistics :
Committals to the watch•house for drunkenness,
snit small assaults growing out of drtrnkenness
from July 1.9, to October 19,1852, (the first three
months under the new liquor law,) 177
Committals for corresponding mouths of
last year, 282
Committals , for one month immediately
preceeding the operation of the new law, 153
Committals to the County Jail from July
19 to Oct. 19, 1852, (the first three
months under the liquor law,) for State
offences, 77 - -
For City offences, v 33-110
Committals to the county jail for the cor
responding months of last year, fur State
offences, 110
For city oflences. 51-161
Committals to the county jail for one
month preceeding the operation of the
new liquor law, fur State offences, 40
For city offences, 32-72
From these statistics it will be seen that
thecommittals•to the watch-house and coun.
ty jail for the first three months under the
new liquor law, are one-third less than 'du
ring the corresponding months of last veer;
and the average monthly committers for
these three months are about 60 per cent.
less than' for the month immediately pre
ceeding.
On the firat•day of this month,there were
but'll4 patipers in the Dexter Asylum ; be
ing the smallest number of inmates at this
season of the year since - 1845. The number
of inmates on the Ist of November, last
year, was 146,• and that is "precisely the
average number, at that date, for the past
six years.

W smiled in the grand_old steamer Con
oecticut, Captain St4dy-Habits commander,
with the rest of the large Whig fleet, on the
evening of the second of November, on our
course up the 'stream. As we entered the
bay into which that famous river discharges
its waters, there was a universal, expression
of grief throughout the whole fleet. The
first ebullition being over, we had then an
opportunity, " quiet, though sad," to mark
the rapid progress of our voyage, and the in
teresting objects before ue. As we passed
up the bay, there loomed up before us the
low sandy point of Cope Harbor Improve
ment; we gave its obstructions a wide berth,
and sighed as we silently bade it adieu for
years. The wrecks of steamers were strew
ed all along its yellow sands. Cope Protec
tion then showed its headland. The long
break-water, erected in 1812 against the
dashing waves of the broad ocean, which
rolled its billows from far England upon it,
had been taken down and washed away; and
foolishly, on, the landward side of the point,
another barrier had been built in '46, which
only checked the current of the inland river.
As we passed it, it was enveloped in fog,
which had seided in gloomy wreathes on the
sides of Mount Anierican System, that rose
behind it. "Farewell," we said, " old land
mark ! Thou wilt guide our fleet to victo
ry no more ! . Thy whole stupendous mass
is to tie carted off and deposited in the deep 1
ocean of Free Trade! He who once' stood
proudly otr thy top to cheer us on to the con
test, Sleeps the last long sleep of death, and
his system has penshed with him. It is,
marked on the tomb -stone, as the 'fruitless
labor of one who would have established his
country's prosperity; had factions permitted.
Soon after we approached the hidden rocks
of Slavery Extension. Here a great debate
sprung up in the different vessels of the fleet
as to which aide of the rocks ,ve should pass.
The contest grew exciting, when old Captain
Consideration settled the difficulty by remark
ing that it made no difference when we were
going up tie river. •
The old rocky shore of Point Ncitional
Bank next presented itself. But the regular
action, of the current and tide had so fretted
off the projecting rocks, that it was no loa
ger dangerous. Here we passed the large
Demociatic fleets, coming down the bay,with
streamers and pennonb and flags flying, with
ban 6:l music playing, and the passengers
ffrof Nuic
sho g the highest glee. What was
rat strap e, in all cases' the British flag
was flying above the American, and . the
shouts of 4. burro for England's interests"
rent the air, while the bands played "God
Save the King." The New. Hampshire, an
old-fashioned, slow-sailing craft, led the van,
looking as if her, model was a century old.—
She was the flag ship,
,and bore aloft on her
mizzen a flag, with the inscription " Vit.,
giltia Resolutions of '98." Franklin Pierce
stood at her prow, smiling as the morning
sun, his eye fixed steadily on the distant
view of the White House. The rest of the
fleet seemed vexed at the little progress
which was made under the "'9B" flag. The
squadron of the West, under the command of
Rear Admiral Douglas, were evidently de
termined to sail faster, as soon as the bay
widened. Douglas had showed his cunning
by so constructing his ensign that the side
which turned toward the flag ship presented
the mond of "the Virginia Resolutions,"
while on the other was faintly written " Riv
er and Harbor Improvement." He declared
to his men that as soon as therelvaa. room
enough to pass the Commodore, he should
lead off himself, tisul down the Virginia flag,
and up with the black flag of piracy, with
its skull and cross bones.

lien. Scorn examined with much curiosity
battrbanks of the river as we sailed on. It
way the - very first tints that 1w had been on Me
stream. and-everything was new to him. "I
am not disheartened, ' said the old veteran,
" I have troops of friends 'around me, who
have fallen with me. My life has be en de
voted to the Republic, and f bow to its de-
cisions now. This vote cannot blot out the
record of my services from my country's his
tory. Posterity will do me Justice.
As we neared the extremity of the stream
we passed many beautiful country residences.
At one of the finest, in .his large cabbage
garden, stood Martin Van Buren. Ile had
not yekrecovered from his grief at seeing the
Democratic fleet sail by without taking him
on board.
" The buckwheai cake was in his mouth,
The tear was in his eye."
We inquired for the Prince, and found
that he had' followed the fleet in a small
skiff, and there were many fears entertained
for hostilely.
A little further up was Buchanan. Poor
man ! he looked haggard. The Democratic
garment with which he had covered up his
principles so long, was growing Thin, and
the old Federal ; lining showed through in
many places.
On the next turn of the river ne found
Cass, wringing his hands in agony at the de
sertion of his friends. With his coat and
hat oft he was exclaiming amid " the noise
and'confusson" of the surf around him, in
the words . of the Captive Knight:
' .“ They are gone ! they have all pissed by !
They in whose wars I,had borne a part,
'flol that I lured with a brother's heart,
;They have left me here to die !
Sound again, clarion! Clarion, pour thy blast !
&land ! for the President Sid dream of hope is
past"
Soon after we came to the place where
the whole Free Soil party were disembark
ing. John P. Hale, in a very good natured
frame of mind, was making preparations for
a permanent residence, as he bad no idea
that four years would carry him down the
stream again. Many of them were seated
oa the rocks, with long black poles, stirring
up the mud of the stream, whilecertain inky
looking fellows were calling upon them to
" agitate, agitate !" Most of the Massachus
etts members were sitting in their boats, ex
pecting that the Democrats would charter the
old steamboat Coalition and come up after
'them, next week.
'We found our new residence a convenient
one, and we are, upon the whole, " as well
as could e expected." The air is salubri
ous and 'invigorating, if we may judge by
the hungry looks of the Democrats, as they
passed us. The soil is fruitful, and produces
a fine crop of regrets and unavailing resolu
tions, but we are determined not to cultivate
despair.
Soon alter our arrival, a large public meet
ing was called, which assembled near Cape
Turn Again. Hon. Stay-at-home Grumbler
was appointed Chairman, and Job Doo-Lit
tle, Esq.,
Secretary. Hon. Mr. Facing both
ways made some lacrymose remarks, which
were promptly biased down when Mr.
Stick-to-the right Great-heart offered the fol

has discovered a new theory for this disehse, which
theory is entirely different and ai variance with all
other theories. Accordingly he has invented • me
dicine to operate upon the system to sint!hia theory
of the disease. And from the anisette) success
which is said' to attend the use of this medicine
It seems that he has, at last, discoserdd• the trite
