Considering the source from which such

ell, These claitnants of sympathy. these
ministers of Woe, who express such bor.
tor al the idea' of proscription. - are pe'ett.
'hourly entitled to mmsideration from the
fact .that tlie'ly are speaking in behalf of a
pnrty that never proscribes. How forci
ble is their appeal ! They call upon their
friends'in office to stay there—as long as
they can. One geutleman..in the posses.
sion of a good place, has ',smite a hero
..annonriciag magnaaiinously..-that he
would do sn; and a cettainournal has Mr'

the Caitlin - I by declaring that it would put
out its neck like an old Roman, rather
than leave its nest.
It is the beautiful propriety of the thing
to which, we invite the reader's attention
—the - admirable consistency. SATAN re
bilking SIN never rose to a loftier attitude
of the •sublitam. Passing the hounds oT
ordinary impudence ; the demeanor of
this outraged patriotism ascends to the
height of a most imposing effrontery. It
ig poetical in the boldness of its fanciful
conception; it illustrates the picturesque
of pqlitics. tbe rhapsody of humbug.
The Black Ilussareof proscription con
verted into meek wayfaring pilgrims ; po
litical adventurers, who have become place. '
men, turned suddenly into patriots ; de.
vourers of spoils, the harmless and tender
nurslings of the Treasury. Such a meta
morphosis has not been seen since the
days of Om, who tells how a hunter be
came a stag, and that JUPITER himself was
disguised - in a shower of gold. -
It will be borne in mind that the new
Adminisiration has not made itself liable ,
to the charge of proscription in any sense ;
but it is also to be remembered that the
ejection from office, or the refusal to re. ,
appoint men whose sole or chief claim to
place is founded upon the doctrine of
"spoils," is not proscription. Quite the
contrary. It is the very sort of reform I
which the times require, and which good
men will approve. Not, indeed, that the
places of ouch be filled by new incumbents !
upon the ground of the same doctrine ; but
by men honest, capable and faithful, who
are respected for their worth, and whose
occupancy of office will impart as notch
respectability to the place as the place may
confer distinction on the occupant.

GEN. TAYLOR'S IDEA OF CONDREISSION•

priatitin Bill came near being lost, and
says :
""it is suspected that the opposers of the
bill desired to kill it, in order to force an

CHOLERA IN THE %V EST.—The Nash

Four deaths had recently occurred from

"The New Orleans steamers of the past
two or three days have again brought the
Cholera up the river. The Bride un her

REVOLTING STATE OF Tarsus.—All the
letters from un board the steamer California,
as she neared San Francisco, represent
the state of things there as perfectly revolt

San Francisco during the rainy season,
had given themselves up to gambling and
drinking. These letters also confirm_ the
apprehended trouble with the foreigners,
u hu were all armed, and whom the Amer
ieans on board the California had deter
mined should not go to mining. The de
sertion of the steamer's crew, also, is con
fidently spoken of, on the plea that their
lime is out. Some had already refused
to work. The uniformity of the letters
on these snhjects, gives more than ordina
ry force to their statements.
Nawsramits.--The following, from the
Liverpool Mercury, is not inapplicable to
many persons in this part of the world,
and to such we recommend its careful pe
rusal:—
Every subscriber, thinks the paper is
printed for his special benefit, and if there
is nothing in it that twits him, it must be
stopped—it is good for nothing. Some
people look over the deaths and marriages,
and actually complain of the editor if bet
few people ha his vicinity have been so
fortunate as to get married, or so unfortu
nate as to die. An editor should have
such things in his paper whether they oc
cur or not. Just as many subscribers as
au editor may have, just so many different
tastes has he to consult. One wants stories
and poetry ; another abhors all this. The
politician wants nothing but politics. One
must have something smart; another some
thing sound: One likes anecdptes, fun
and frolic ; and the next
,door neighbor
wonder: that a man Of centre will put such'
stuff in .a paper. We onlywish that every

Crescent publishes the report of a commit

which occurred among the Sone of Tempe

during the recent epedetnic. The com

and forty-three members of the dif f erent

three deaths only occurred, and in some of
them not a case of cholera took place.—
Of those who died, one had been a mem

and the third was a watchman who was
much exposed. The proportion of deaths
in the city was fifteen to every thousand
souls, while in the Sons of Temperance
the proportion was one in mom than each

BENTON UN THE PROTUCELL.T.-841MEIOE
Benton has commenced a serious attack
on the late administration. in reference to
the Protocol to the Mexican Treaty. He
attempts to prove that the Protocol Firece
ded the ratification of the Treaty by the
Mexican Vongress. and.not. subsequent to
it, as appeared by Mr. Polk in his message.
He gives two reasons for his present
course: first, because the dignity of the
senate should be asserted ; and, secondly.
that we owe it to the credit of the country
to treat a weaker nation, like Mexico, with
magnanimity. He maintains that ;he
Treaty would never have been - ratified by
Mexico, without the Protocol, and that the
signing of the instrument was a monstrous
assumption of power on the part of the
Commissioners. He also agreed that the
Protocol is in direct contravention of the
Treaty, and vitiates those portions of it
to which it refers. He charger! Mr. Polk
and his Administratival . with direct false
hood.
The Loco Senators are boiling with in
dignation at this expose. They declare
that Mr. Benton is making the, Protocol and
Free Soil a bridge to carry him over the
stream that divides the two p arties.

I'o ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
THERE are but few persons, compar
atively speaking, at this season of the
Year. but who are suffering. noire or less,
with Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Hoarse
ness. dr like complaints, caused by the
sudden changes of or exposure to the
weather. To all those who are thus af
flicted, and who may read this advertise
ment, we would recommend Hiss's Ex
rEcrultsvr as the most effectual remedy
ever offered to the public. No faintly
should be without a bottle of it in their
house, as a timely administration of it
would prevent much suffering. Hundreds
who have used it, say' they would not be
without it were the price ten times the
amount that it is, and who is it that does
not think more of health, the source of our
happiness, than of wealth ? Delay not
Meru to procure a bottle at once, and you
will never regret that you tried it.

A WORD TO THE WISE.
THE revolutions throughout Eti rope,du
ring the year 1848, have been produc
tive of a momentary stagnation in the coal
t merce of the world. Many reports have
reached us, that thousands dila merchants
have failed, and a great number of its man=
ufactories have been obliged to suspend
, their operations. Many have been look
ing with an anxious eye towys our hap
jpy land of freedom, in order to save the
j wrecks of their fortunes. Favored by the
low duties, established sly our govern
ment, they have been able to meet with
a suitable market to dispose of their other-
Iwise worthless goods. Al no other period
since the establishment of our government,
have our markets been so glutted with all
sorts of goods. Hence goods have de
clined enormously in prices. Let it cot
be supposed that this will continue much,
longer ; already we are informed, by the
news brought in the last steamers, that
tranquility is restored and confidence re
established between the different nations of
Europe, and that 'business-has -already re=
vived—consequently, prices of manufactu
ring goods must and will rise again.
Being convinced of this fact, I would im
form my customers, and the public gen
erally, that 1 have just received a, very
large assortment of Spring rout Summer
Wearing Apparel, together with my
usual assortment of fersehy i .Fltncy Goods,
Pistols, 4-e. My goods having been pur
chased when prices were lowest and
choices the most exteniitie, • l feel confideet
hat I not only can undersell any one in
this aeighbothopd.... t he cities not except. ;
ed. My stock being well selected and of
the best materiiils, it cannot fall of giving
entire shfisfact ion, to those' who Will honor
the with their calls.
. My ;stock of goods is large, consisting,
of Meri t s and. Boy!' Wearing Apparel, of
all sizes and iittMitii and prices ; and my
mind being maddiip as to selling cheaper
thaU the Cheapest, my tamps of,sale
only be cash and at only one price.
art-I have also on hand a lot of PINE,
OIL, o[4 superior quality, and very cheap.
Also, a CARRIAGE, and two second
