THE ADMINISTRATIONOF GEN.
TAYLOR,
The administration of President Taylor
had not commenced before the veteran Ed
itor of the "Union," exasperated by the
overthrow of his party, announced his de
termination to oppose it, and, (luring the
hest summer, before time had been allow
ed for the development of the policy of the
new Administration, or for the recommend
ation of a single measure to Congress,
that print. "the organ of the Opposition at
the seat of government," proclaimed its
purpose, "no matter what face the future
might wear, to oppose the Administration
to the bitter end."
Measures of domestic policy having
been but very slightly shadowed forth,
the Union has until recently confined it.
self chiefly to a daily outcry at the ap
pointment to office of some of the mem
bers of a party which has dining twenty
years been as much proseritwd and spurn
ed by the -I..(wofeco Administrations as
though they were aliens in the country,
and entitled to none of the rights and pri
vileges of American citizens. Having ex
hausted its vocabulary of vituperation on
this theme, and determined to prejudge the
Administration withoutregard to facts, the
Union has lately burst forth in fury a
gainst the foreign policy of the President;
and the Secretary of State has not been
able to do a single act which has not been
condemned, or to leave undone any thing
for the omission of which he has nut been
severely censured.
We propose briefly to examine this sub
ject, and to show how groundless am therm .
sweeping censures of the Union. We'
have been attentive observers of the man-
ner in which our foreign affairs have been
conducted since the present Secretary of
State was called by the President to aillj
him in the management of those Wahl ;1
and, after a dispassionate consideration of
every thing he has done, which has thus
far met the public eye, and of which we
have any knowleihre, we undertake to say
that our foreign relations, amidst great dif
ficulties, were never more successfully
managed, and that in every instance he
has vindicated the honor and interests of the
country - with ability;"iiil; . and patriotism
which entitle him to the respect andthanks
of the country.
The Union hazards vague charges of
mismanagement, then calls for the facts,
awl, while it strikes away in the dark.
Complains that it has no light. We tan
tell the Union that, • were its judgments
guided by more candor, there is light en
ough to lead it to more charitable construc
tions than it HOW chooses topronounce.
l'he fact is, President Taylor's Adminis
tration, so far as it regards its foreign pill
icy, has been most remarkable fur the
frankness and openness with which he has
exposed all. his doings, when compatible
with the public interest, without waiting
the slow and distant operation resorted to
under other Administrations, of 'calls of
Congress. Tho moment that the opposi
tion raised the hue and cry about the stop
page of the Prussian war-steamer tnited
States, resident Taylor ordered the whole
correspondence with the German-Minis
ter to he laid before the public. - The sante
frankness Characterized his conduct in the
case of his refusal to hold any further eons
munication with the French Mlniriter,
and, in general, the correspondence; of the
Secretary has been promptly laid before
the public, on the call of his political as
sailants, with a defiance of scrutiny and
opposition never before exhibited in our
history. So far, therefore, from refusing
light to his enemies, the President, with
characteristic fearlessness, has unveiled
.his proceedings to friend and fire; and the
result has been Olathe Union, and all
that portion of the factioue press bound,
under any circumstances, to "oppose to
the bitter end" have broke forth against
the President and the Secretary of State
with a fury unparalelleil in vindictiveness
and injustice. But let us proceed.
In the case of the Prussian war-steamer
United States the conduct of the Admin
istration was marked by a degree of cour
tesy and firmness, which while it compel
led the agents of a foreign Power within
our borders to respect our own laws and
treaties, deprived even those who were
bound to respect our neutral obligations of
the filthiest pretext of complaint. As a
mark of extraordinary confidence in the
German Minister, the President offered to
accept his two written assurance, in the
words of our act of 1818, that the ship
should not violate our neutrality. This
Baron Von Boerne declined to give with
, out fixing a construction on the words of
the act .which rendered it in operative.—
The bond prescribed by the act was then
demanded and obtained, to the satisfaction
of Denmark and even of Prussia herself.
The ship Was fitting out in our own navy
yard, and under the direction of our own
naval commanders, by order of Mr. Secre-,
tary Mason, for the purpose of being ent!
ployed in the Schleswig-Holstein war,
sailed under bonds for Bremerhaven, her
port of destination, and his Majesty of
Prussia has never been able to employ that
ship in violation of our treaty with Den
mark. Had the Administration proceeded,
as its predecessor had done, to fit ships for
the belligerents of Europe, our country
would have soon become a byword and a
reproach among nations fur disregarding
thu faith of treaty stipulations, and ready
at all times to supply any Power with the
means of destroying a friend fur the mere
pecuniary emolument arising out of the
job.
This act, exhibiting in a striking light
the determination of President Taylor to
fulfill the pledges of his hiatigural Address
in relation to the faith of treaties, was soon
followed by another act founded OH the
Same policy, which has elevated our na
tional character among the nations of the
earth. Cuba was a prize so faseinuting,
sedan well calculated fur popular lure and
clap -trap, that out political opponents pla
ced it first in the apt illiteration of their
party-cry during the last Presidential mo
rass, of "Cuba, Canada and Casa."—
What Gen. Cass's policy would have been
had he received a majority of the votes
for the Presidency, we leave others to con
jeeture. It tenor pride and pleasure to re
fer to the action of President Taylor, a
dopted at the first moment lie learned that
a hostile expedition against Cuba was fit
ting out within our borders. No deceitful
ratinchisrations of policy pare permitted by
enchanted Chief Magistrate to swerve him
*on the path of duty and honor. Our

Per this set the President has received the
thanks, not only of foreign nations, but of
all good men in his own country ; and the
time is not distant, if it has not already ar
rived, when the thoughtless men who en
listed in this illegal enterprise, without
knowing its destination, will thank the
President for an interference which saved
them from the fate of the followers of Mi
randa, and the horrors of dungeon and gib
bet. It is now ascertained that the Span
ish commander, Roncali, was ready to re
ceive them with a disciplined body of re
gular soldiers, against whom they could not
have possibly made a successful head.—

lion. The whole expedition was peacea
bly and quietly dispersed. and the Adminis
tration has been no leas distinguished by
its clemency than its 'firmness.
Simultaneously with the proclamation
to arrest the illegal invasion of Cuba was
another act of President Taylor,, which
standain beautiful relief in connexion with
it. It was the prompt and efficient action
of the Secretary of State. through our Con
sul at Haien*, in procuring the return to
the United States of the keeper of the
prison in Hanna. who had released Vit..
laverde while under sentence of death for
high treason.
Firm in hie purpose to vindicate the
honor of hie own country, and the right of
every' man to-the protection of our laws
who seeks shelter under them, whether
native' or foreigner; resolved to maintain
the honor ofour flag. and the inviolability
ofthelerson Of every one entitled-to the
.proteetiow of our laws, the President secu
red the safety of Garcia at the very ma•
ment when he bad been removed to the
prison adjoining the garrutid, and triumph
antly placed him in the,eustody of the law
officers of the United States at New Or
leans. .
While mini; were, astonished at the
rapidity of the Executive movement, all
were gratified at the lodinate result. Had
the President proceeded to demand Garcia
from the- Court at Madrid it would have
been a fatal mistake, which might, and
probably would, have involved the peace
of the two countries. The delays of that
dilatory Court, if resulting - in the execution
of Garcia, could never have been satirise
torily atoned for to our Government or
People. We regard this decisive move
ment of the Executive in the right direc
tion as an act not merely fortunate in its
consequences, but evibeitte of that wise
forecast. that sagacity and quickness of de
cision which distinguished General Tay
lor in every battle he has fought and every
victory he has won. Yet these things,
which have been, and will continue to be
in future, the topics over which good men
will rejoice, have furnished to the Oppo
sition press, " bound to oppose to the bit
ter end. no matter what face the conduct
of the Administration might wear," nothing
but themes for contumely and abuse.—
They aie evidences of " the bungling di
plomacy" of the Secretary of State—of
" tbo.-islundering and ignorance" of the
Pneibloni of the United States—of , the
" isnliecility " of the Cabinet.
NO act of the Administration of any de
scription has escaped their censure. The
Preifident issued a recommendation to the
People to devote one day, while a fatal
peintieisei Stasi spreading its ravages
throughout the land, to humiliation and
prayer, and the nation responded with ex
traordinary unanimity to the appeal of its
Chief Magistrate. The temples of the
Allmighty were opened on that day to all
who ackowledged his existence and feared
his displeasure. The prayers of millions
went up to the Most High for relief from
the dreadful scourge. Ity His kind provi
dence the pestilence has disappeared ; yet
the recommendation of the President was
scoffed at, and he was most scurvily as
sailed km having dared to make it. From
the tone of a portion of the Democratic
press, ; the elimination of the disease—the
banishment of a pestilence afte,r a recom
mendation of President Tailibr of pray
ers to God to expel it. was little better
than a usurpation of power; and it requi
red but one step further for diem to take—
a natural and an easy one—to place the
whole patty on the side of the Cholera, to
defend it against the Exetutive encroach
ments of GeneratTaylor. and to enshrine
it as a political martyr by the aide of the
French Minister, Round Islanders, and
the " thonsand " victims who have been
decapiuited 'by the "bloody axe of pro.
scription."
The conduct of the Opposition in taking
sides with the French Minister, M. Poe.-
sin. against their own Government, whom
he had twice insulted, exceeds, for its
shameless effrotftery, anything that has
occurred in the past history of this coun
try. Helier*, as we do, that Mr. Potts
sin had authority .in his instructions for
the hank in the eatie of Captain Csrpen
der, and knouiing; as all know. that Mr.
Secretary klaennerthe bead of the Navy
Department under Mr., Polk, as well as
Mr. Clifford, Mr. Polk's Minister in Mex•
ion, had both, with , a full knowledge of all
the facts, approved dell the conduct of
Capt. Carpender, we blush for a press
which, in its rage to assail the President
and the Secretary of State, has not hesita
ted to demolish the characters of the lead
ing statesmen dim own Am". Be it re
membered that the Imme d iate insult coin-

Cabinet about the dignity of our nations!
marine, as involved in Mr. Mason's own
decision in the case of Capt. Carpender;
be it remembered that Mr. Clifford, in
Mexico, had thoroughly approved of Capt.
Carpentler'm conduct; then let the candid
reader reflect that the complaint against
the Secretary of State is that he did nut
reverse the decision of these two Demo
crutic functionaries, but modestly preferred
submitting Continander Carpender's de
fence to the French Government in the
honest hope that lie might escape censure
and disgrace fur having saved a French
ship and kept her thirty hours, not in op
position, but pursuant to the will of her
two captain !
From all the facts which have yet ap
peared, Commander Carpender never de
tained the vessel fur an instant against the
will of her captain. The French captain,
ignorant of the navigation, refused COM.
Carpender's offer to surrender her;
ell that that officer should take command
of his ship to get her off the rocks, and
abandoned her to him. Cont. Carpender,
by his nautical skill and at much hazard,
succeeded in saving her, carried her to
safe anchorage, and delivered her tip at the
tirat moment her captain appeared to ask
for her. Ile was not only entitled to sal
vage for' hi. crew, but he exhibited an ex
cessive generosity in yielding up the ves
sel without salvage; he voluntarily gave
up his own rights, and the rights dials sail
ors who labored all night to save the
French ship; yet it seems that nothing
would satisfy the French Governmeirbut
his ruin. He had a lien on the vessel sav
ed, and he had a right to detain her until
he could carry her into port for adjudica
tion. He could not carry her into Vera
as a Mexican ordinance of long
standing prohibits any foreign man-of-war
from entering the harbor of Vera Cruz ;
and, had he attempted to enter the port of
the Eugenie's destination, the guns of San
Juan de Ulna would have announced the
arrival of the Iris as soon as she came with.
in gunshot of that fortress.
Never yet was any Opposition betrayed
into o position so disreputable as their
presses have placed them in, by their de
termination to oppose President Taylor,
right or wrong, "to the bitter end;"—
They have walked over Mr. Clifford, and
left him prostrate; and have beaten down
Secretary Mason, in order to take sides
with the French Government. To kill
the Secretary of State they have not shesi
lewd to stab their own Secretary of the
Navy. To take sides with Mr. Poussin
they have not paused to consider what is
.to become of Mr. Clifford. The reputa
tion of their own Minister in Mexico is
nothing by the side or in comparison with
the reputation of a French Minister in the
United States. The " Union" and its
auxiliaries have not eenipkid to publish
reviews and reflections the most acrimo
nious against an American Secretary of
State, whole only object has been to sus
tam the honor of his own government. and
his own official position, against Messrs.
De Tocqueville and Poussie, and to tram
ple him in the dust to sustain the Minis•
tent of a Foreign Government who have
twice grossly insulted him.
We must close these remarks for to
day. The subject requires more space
than we anticipated, but it demands •
thorough examination, and we shall resume
it at an early day. The foreign policy of
President Taylor will bear the strictest
scrutiny, and, in despite of all who mean
to oppose it to the bitter end, no matter
what foie it may wear, we mean to de.
monstrate that, so far as it has yet been
disclosed to the public, it has been honor
able, wise, and successful in every particu
lar.
Important from Europe.
War Threatened between Russia
and Turkey.
The steamer Niagara had arrived with
London and Liverpool dates to the 6th
instant. The intelligence of the rupture
between our Government and the French
Minister had prodn.ted quite a sensation,
but the Paris Moniteur of the sth instant
says that the French Government entirely
disavows the conduct of M. Poussin in re
ference to the recent controvery with the
American Government.
The same paper also announces the ap
pointment of M. Bois i.e Compt. now
French Minister at Turin, as Minister
Plenipotentiary to the United States, and
that Lucien Murat is to succeed Ilan at
Turin.
It is reported that" news have been re
ceived from Sir John Franklin's exploring
expedition, which is said to be surrounded
by ice in Prince Regent's Inlet.
Another report is that Comorn has sur
rendered, and that the Hungarian General
Gorgey has been shot by Count Zueika,
whose brother was shot by order of Gor
gey.,
The moat important news by this arri
val is that respecting the relations of Rus
sia and Austria with Turkey, which is
thus reporter:
The latest accounts from Constantino
ple state that the Emperor of Russia has
made a formal demand through a special
Envoy to the Porte for the surrender of
Kossuth, Dem, and other patriots who
played a prominent part in the late Hun
garian struggle, and who have sought re
fuge at Widdin, on the Danube, in the ter
ritories of the Sultan.
The Turkish Government, with a man
liness which cannot be too highly com
mended, refused to be bullied into a com
promise of its independence, and Prince
Radzivil, after having ineffectually endea
vored to bully the Sultan into a compliance
with his demands, has taken an abrupt de
parture from Constantinople, and Count
Tidoff, the Russian &limiter, has closed
all diplomatic relations with the Porte.
England and France, through their res
pective representatives, have prevailed
with the Sultan in keeping him firm in
his resolution. Already, in Europe and
France, cabinet councils have been held .to
consider these grave circumstances. Not
the slightest doubt can be entertained of
the result, that, should Russia persist in
demanding the surrender of these devoted
men, a European war will be inevitable.
This subject forma the chief topic of
discourse in the English and French jour
nals, as well as amongst all classes ; and
in its paramount importance, the Roman
difficulty, as well as all other matters of
national consequence, appears to have been .
almost wholly lost sight of.
The Paris Journal des Debate expres
ses its gratification at learning that Eng
land and France are most cordially united
in their determination to support their Am
bassadors in the advice given by them to
the Porte.
The result of Prince Radzivil'i return
to the Czar is looked for with intense anx
iety, and it is reported that large English
and French fleets are to be immediately
ordered to the Mediterranean.
The affairs of the Pope remain in about
in the same position as at the last advises.
lie appears little disposed to concession ;
and should the Preach troops be with
drawn from the Papal States, it is appre
hended that a fresh revolution would im
mediately break forth, and that the Papal
authority would be overthrown forever and
a firm Republican government establehed.
RODE TO DE ANNEXED TO FRANCS.---
An American gentleman in Paris, whose
means of information the New York Tri
bune says are excellent, gives a curious
plan of President Louis Napoleon to an
nex Rome to France. He remarks upon
the fact that the Retrogrades in the French
Chamber have not dared to attack the
President's letter to Cul. Ney, and says:
..The Pope will recede—if not, there will
be a movement made, and that very soon,
the ultimate object of which will be to an
nex Rome to France. If the Pope shall
continue to be obstinate, Louis Napoleon
will contrive to have the popular vote of
Rome given asking for annexation."
To treat with unmerited indignity or
neglect one whom you have laid under ob
ligations, is almost as bad as ingratitude on
the other side.

♦ "Tempest to a Tea Pot.”
Circumstances connected with the withdrawal
of a name or two from our subscription list du
ring the past week, seem to have excited some
little 'attention and more curiosity. We have
been requested to give room to several communi
cations bearing upon the subject, but feel com
pelled to decline them, the whole business being
entirely too instill to *deserve even the remark it
has already occasioned—being little more than a
•'tempest in a tea-pot."
The facts are simply these : Last week a cor
respondent of the ...Mar" saw fit to notice the com
mendable conduct of Mr. Tar:, the new Propri
etor of the Eagle Hotel, in so far honoring the
sanctity of the Sabbath as to doer hu Bar and Bar
room on that day. For some reason or other,
Messrs G. W. M'Cuszt.a to, of the Mansion Mule.
and H. D. Ware Las, of the Globle Inn, took ex
ception to the publication, and demanded from us
the name of the writer of the communication, the
demand being accompanied by a threat to 'stop
the paper," unless it were acceded to. Not ex
actly recognising either the right or the propriety
of the demand, we of course declined giving the
name, and Messrs. M'Clellan and Wattles have
withdrawn their subscriptions. These ■re the
farts ; the public can make their own Inferences.
A word as to our own position, which, by-the-
by, we had thought was by this time perfectly un
derstood. As the conductors of an independent
Journal—"fearless and free"—we claim the right•
at all times, to approve right and censure wrong,
and shall exercise that right whenever we believe it
our duty to do so, regardless of frowns from any
quarter. Belong as the "Star" merino.. is one
hands, the friends of morality may rest satisfied
with the assurance that the columns of at least one
['sea shall be at all times free to give utterance to
their views, whether upon the Temperance ques
tion or any other. The attempt to "muzzle the
Press," by threats of withdrawal of patronage, has
foiled too often with us, in times past, to expect it
to be successfully renewed now. Pleased as we
are, and I& aye shall be, to be honored with the
favors of our friends, we seek no man's patronage
at the sacrifice of principle or right, and we ask no
man to accord it to us who expects our judgment
or purposes to be swayed by considerations of the
"almighty dollar." We profiles to famish a full
equivalent in exchange for all that we receive, and
neither desire or expect any one to continue his sub
scription one moment longer than he believes him
self to be receiving this equivalent. We ask no- -
thing on the score de/unity. It may be, and no
doubt is, true, that by thus marking out our copra
we have time and again given offence in certain
quartets, and have thereby lost the control of pa
tronage which might otherwise have reached us.
But we prefer that it should be so-being e ntirely
willing to throw onnelves upon the good opinion
and kind feelings of the friends of right and of
morality. We hope our position is now under
stood.

• tarOur.neighbor of the Compiler has at length
made an effort to " toe the mark," and In his list
perpetrates what we are almost charitable enough
to suppose he really believes to be an orponent
upon the subject of Gen. Taylor's pledges. And
judging by the quantal of blustering by which It
is introduced to the reader, one might be Inclined
to infer that our weighbor not only looks upon
his effort as an "argument," but regards it as a
conclusive one. Unfortunately, however, bragga
docio is not always a true badge of courage ; nor
is loud profession an invariable index of real sin
cerity. Boys will sometime. in the midst of &n
-aiad danger whistle to "keep their courage up,"
and we have heard ofeoldiersendeavoring to mask
the smallness of the calibre of the guns under loud
explosions, just as men will sometimes seek to
conceal their real weakneu by mock display. We
really did hope, when the Compiler ventured en far
as to threaten the production of " facts " and
proolk" in support of his allegations against the
administration of Glen. Taylor, on the score of al
laded infidelity to solemn pledges—to see our
neighbor, for once at lout, leave the field of dem
agogueism, and, by calm, dispassionate argument,
endeavor to sustain his positions. It seems, how
ever, that we were mistaken.
In reply to our challenge far the production of
the farts and proofs threatened in a previous num
ber of the Compiler, we were last week favored
with near a column of we scarcely know what
to call it, for it is neither " fish, flesh, nor fowl."—
It purports, however, to be a triumphal proof of
Gen. Taylor'. wilful falsification of pledges given
prior to his election to the Presidency—so triumph
ant, indeed, in the Compiler's own estimation, that
our neighbor goes into quite an saucy of joy
over his victory, and assertions of " reckless disre
gard of truth," " Impudent boldness," and " wilful
falsification " on the part of the Star, are bandied
to and fro with quite as much gusto aa an Irish
man would his 'Attila* under the first intoxication
of fancied victory. The reader, however, may be
amused when informed that saving this liberal sprin
kling of choice blustering, the effort of our neighbor,
the. heralded with so much evident self-satisfaction,
after all amounts to nothing more nor less than a
series of quotation, from the columns of the Star
prior to the last Presidential election, designed to
show that Gen. Taylor had over and over again
affirmed his determination, although a Whig—. a
decided Whig," (to use his own language)—" not
to be the President of a snore party,', but to " pro
scribe proscription."
The Crmpilcr might have saved itself the
trouble of searching for and extracting these quo
tations, so far as the Whig party is concerned.—
For no ono, save the Compiler itself and other
Loci:face journals and I.ocofoco stump orators, ever
thought of denying that Gen. Taylor bad given
these pledges. It is true that the great complaint
of the Locofocoa before the Presidential election
was that Gen. Taylor " wouldn't make say pledges,"
and the burden of their charges against the Whig
party was that we were willing to take a candi
date of whose views we knew nothing and could
know nothing. The great complaint sow, how
ever, is that Gen. Taylor "has violated all the
pledges he ever made!" Wd are glad to see that
our neighbor is an ready to admit that we were
right and he wrong in this matter of pledges. The
grace with which he swallows his own words in
this case leads us to hope much for the future,
when " facts " and history shall have proven the
utter absurdity of the bitter, malignant persecu•
Lion now being waged against the administration
of President Tayldr, even in advance of all decla
ration or national policy on Its part, and which,
the Washington Union boldly declares, is to be
pursued " to the bitter end," be the administration
righter wrong ! j
The Compiler makes a parade of these pledges—
pledgee not denied by any Whig—and then very
carefully stops, quite conveniently forgetting that
the point at issue is, not whether these pledges
were given, but whether they have been t. falsified,"
as was alledged. This is the point, neighbor, and
now let us have the threatened "fade and
" proofs ! "
In the mentime we commend the attention of
the reader to an able and triumphant article in to
day's paper on the Administratitin of Gen. Tay
lor," taken from the National Intelligencer, and
which contrasts so favorably, in point of calm, de
liberate argument, with the bitter, realm spirit
of demagogueistn which the Locofoco Press seems
to have caught from the Washington Union, and
with which the columns of the opposition journals
literally groan. Never, since the days of Wash
ington, has an Adminiseatkrn been more reckless.
ly villifiod and persecuted than this one of Presi
dent Taylor—and yet, at no stage in our country's
history have we had au abler, a purer, or a more
patriotic ono.
mil. Official Returns of tho recent election
for Canal Commissioner have not been received
from all the counties. Next week we expect to
publish a full return. Oireata's majority over
Fuller will be 11,000 or 12,000, although the
former receives some 40,000 or 41,000 leas than
Gen. Taylor dill last year—the vote being a light
one.

HANOVER BRANCH RAI L -ROAD.—An

the Charter was taken out of the Secretary'. Of

henceforward be steadily prosecuted to completion.
RIR JOHN FRANKLIN.—It will be seen by
refetence to the last adrices from Europe, that in•
telligence bad been received in England of the
long lost expedition of Sir John Franklin, which
is said to be surrounded by ice in Prince Regent's
inlet. An American vessel arrived last week at
New London, Conn., from Davis :Straits, which
brings a similar report. The Captain and crew
had met with natives who reported to them that
four vessels were frozen up in Prince Regent's In
let, where they had been for four seasons, embed
ded in the ice. The natives reported that the
crews of the vessels were alive and well. This
intelligence will give a new impulse to the efforts
to ascertain the 6te of the expedition.
The DlMcnny with France.
The latest letters, says the National Intelligen
cer of Tuesday, received by our Government from
Paris, are of the 3d instant. They announce
Mr. Errs'' arrival, and dissipate any fist that
the dismissal of Mr. Forma interposed any im
pediment to the reception of the American Minis
ter; for it had been announced in the Paris Mimi
true (the official paper) that the French Govern
ment disavowed Mr. Poussin's conduct, rod had
appointed another Minister in his place. This in
telligence, in showing the acquiescence of the
French Government in the correctness of the
course adopted by our Executive towards the
French Minister, and removing all apprehension
of any difficulty arising between the two govern
ments from that cause, will afford sincere satis
faction to the American public.

DAMN° ATTIIIIII7 AT HIGHWAY Ron-
HERT.—On Monday evening last, a short
time alter dark, as a Mr. Welch, a drover,
from Shippensburg, was passing along the
Warm Spring road in a buggy, about, six
miles from this place, a person sprang
from the woods, seized his horscand de
manded of him his money. Mr.' W. itn

him, when the robber, no doubt, suppos
ing him to be armed, let loose his hold of
the horse, and made of as fast as posoi

NOTICE.
The 'Whys' and `Wherefores'
TTIF,SE arc the times in which men
look for the doings of the world and
general information, to the Press, which
is, by-the-by, the true path-finder for bus
iness men, as well as those who wish to
make evere penny count most for them
selves. This being the order of the day,
the undersigned wishes to keep with the
current, and at the same time give the
reader a good hint which path to travel
to make his money count most. A few
good reasons will satisfy the reader at once
why it is that the undersigned will and can
sell any gentleman a suit of ready-made
clothing, from the commonest every-day
suit to a tine Sunday and superfine wed
ding suit, cheaper than any other estab
lishment. In the first place, then, he is
able to sell cheaper than other establish
ments, because lie is well acquainted with
his business. He buys and sells for cash,
and knows when and where and how to
buy his goods. "Goods well bought are
hall sold." Even if he had no advantages
over any one in his line of business, he
can still u ersell them, because he re
quires no lac profits to make up for
large expenses. Ile attends to his busi
ness himself, an therefore incurs but
small expenses, comparatively speaking, in
carrying on the same. He sells his goods
for cash, and therefore requires no large
profits to make up for loss sustained by
credit sales. No one will doubt that the
Cash and One-price system together with
small profits, is the best mode of dealing
and most advantageous to the purchaser.
any one doubts this, he will be convin
ced of its truth by calling at the Clothing
and Variety Store, opposite the Bank,
where he will find a large assortment of
all kinds of Ready-made Clothing, for men's
and boys' wear, together with - every arti
cle in this line of business—Cloaks, Over
Coats, frock, sack, 'business and dress
Coats, Pants and Vests of sill descrip
tions, Woolen Under-shirts and drawers,
all kinds of Shirts, Collars, Cravats, Hand
kerchiefs, Silk (loves and Stockings, wrap
pers, Caps, Hats, together with sonic fan
cy articles—Jewelry, Pistols, knives, and
a few Six+shooters, all of which he will'
with pleasure exhibit fur examination to
those who call upon him. The prices are
such as will satisfy every one that this is
the place tti buy Fall and Winter Cloth
ing. You will be asked but one price,
with but a very unlit profit. The sub
scriber takes this occasion to tender to the
public his thanks for the liberal patronage
which he has thus fai received, and res?
pectfully solicits a continuation of the
same." Also cor sale; a very good and
