Barron hundred tens of
British 'railroad iron, arrived at Cairo, at
the mouth of the Ohio, a few days sine
by way'of New Orleans. This iron is to
be need on the Western line of railway,
andtexcludins just so much of the manufac
ture of Pennsylvania. The Philadelphia A
merican mentions this as one among a great
number of instances showing the effect
which the present redutied jetports on for
eign iron, in connexion with the IoW wages
paidat the pauper liberate of England, has
in causing the, importation of the Euglish
article, and its consintiption irrthis country
in preference to the domestia manufacture.
But this example of • the. system called
"free-trade" is more rentarkalde v inasmuch
as the iron in question was.: brought• to
build roads convenientto Pennsylvania, if
not within the State. It certainly looks
like “carrying coal to Neweastle'l to bring
foreign iron to construct a road, or• arty
thing else in a commonwealth whose mines
contain enough, or more than enough,
ore to supply the wants of the world for
an indefinite succession of years. Alas!

and the happiness of its laboring people,

overcome this deficiency in a contest with
a more popular candidate for Congress,
John early avowed himself as the peculiar
and devoted friend of Washington, and up
on this point endeavored to plaee his rival
in opposition. To carry out his object,
he called tt 'peening pf 'hill people of
county friendly td the election of General
Washington.. On the day appointed, Mr.
Jones appeared, and was, on motion of a
friend, made chairman. He opened the
proceedings by a high eulugium. upon the
life and services of Washington, but taking
care only to speak-DI-himself as his early
patron and most devoted friend, and con.
eluded by proposing to form a party to be
called ""The true and only sons of the
'Railer of his Cotmdry," and for that object
he submitted to the consideration of the
meeting the following resolution :
Resolved. That we are the friends of
Geo. Washington, Esq., and will sustain
buil in the coming election for President
against all other candidates.
"Gentlemen," said Mr. Jones, "the
Chair is now about to put the question.—
The Chair' hopes that every one will dr.
stare his sentiments for or against. All
those in favor of the resolution will say
~a ye..
The response was like the shout of many
mires.
"Now for the opposition," said Mr.
Jones: all of the contrary mind, say .no."'
Note voice was hilard. The dead si
ldimc seemed to confuse Mr. Jones a little,
and he said, “Centlemen do tole. The
Chair can't decide a disputed question
when nobody votes 'other side, so that
the country may know who are the true
friends of Washington."
Upon this appeal one of the audience
rose and said that he perceived the dilem
ma in which the Chair was placed, and
in order to relieve him f such a quan
dary he proposed to amend his resolution
by adding after the name of Washington
"mid John Jones for Congress." "I AC
on pi the amendment," said Mr. Jones, "and
the Chair will now put the question as a
mended."
"All who are in favor of General Wash

Congress will please say aye."

REPUBLICAN ARISTOCRATS
The class of gentry known in this coun
try as Aristocrats, is thus described in
Bunt's Mechanics' Magazine :
Twenty years ago,' this one butchered
and that one made candles ; another sold
cheese and butter ; a fourth . carried On a
distillery ; another was n contractor on
canals ; others were merchants and me
chanics. They are acquainted with both
entlit of society—as their children will be
after them, though it will not do to say
so out loud. For often you will find that
these toiling worms hatch butterflies and
they live :Mont a year.

Death brings divisions of prriperty ; and
it brings new financiers ; the young gen
t!eman takes his revenues, and begins to
travel—mwards poverty, which he reached
before death--or his children do, if he does
not. Si that, in fact though there is mon
ey rank. it is not hereditary—it is accessi
ble to all; three good seasons uf cotton will
send generations of men up; •a score of
years will send them all'down, and their
children again to labor.
The father grubs and grows rich ; his
children strut and use the money, their
children inherit the pride and go to shift
less poverty; their children' reinvigorated
by fresh plebeian blood, and by the smell
of the clod, come up again. Thus society
like a tree draws its sap from the earth,
changes it into leaves and blossoms, spreads
them abroad in great glory; sends them off
to fall hack to the earth, again to 'mingle
with the soil, and at length to re-appear in
new trees and fresh garniture.
ARSAD or THE LATIM Fatalism—Nu
merous Bloomers made their appearsnee
at a ball in Lowell lately, and one of them
wore broadcloth trowsers. The Woon
socket Patriot says that several Bloomers
have appeared in the Woonsocket com
pany's mills in that village.
The Lowell, (Mass.) Courier, of the
20th, says :
'•A meeting of those in favor of the
new Bloomer costume was held in Me
chanics' (upper) Hall last evening. About'
two hundred persons were present, about'
two-thirds of whom were ladies. Mrs. '
Sumner presided, and Miss Sears was
chosen Secretary. U was voted to join
the 4th of July procession in Bloom
er costume, and arrangements were made
relative to the presentation of a banner on
the morning of that day to engine company
No. 11. A committee of arrangements
was also appointed to make arrengements

ture of the moral principles by a mother
in the habits of her offspring is never lost
upon the recipient.
A small lad was called on the stand to
testify in the case. He had been a hand
on board the argue Conrad'while at Per

' The i shaggy appearance of his head, and l i
' the br6nied Chkracter of his like and neck
from exposure,to a southern sun,
,at first
sight would seem to indicate carelessnest
and neglect ;but underneath that, long And
matted hair the fire of intelligence gleamed
from a pair of small restles eye/ Which
could not be mistaken. The counsel for
the captain, from ,the extreme youth of the
lad, doubted whether he understood the
obligation of the oath he was about to take,
and, with a view to test his knowledge,
asked leave to interrogate him. This was
granted and the following colloquy took
place :
Counsel—"My lad, do you understand
the obligation un oath 2"

showed how much he esteemed the early
moral principles implanted in his breast by
her to whom was committed his physical
and moral existence. How truly has it
been said. "that bread cast upon the wa
tery' will return after many days 1"
This answer caused a thrill of joy to an
imate the bosoms of the auditory, and eve
ry (ace was lighted njrwith satisfaction.—
The lad was instantly admitted to testify.

THE STATE CON V ENTIOH.— We give to
day the proceedings of the Wlig state Conven
tion, which met at Lancaster - on Tuesday and
Wednesday. The late hour at a hick they reach us
gives us little opportunity for comment this week.
The proceedings, however, will speak for them
selves. The candidates presented are men of the
Ant order—unetooptionablein every respect—end
present an army of ability end personal worth
which will command the confidi.nce and support
of the friends of correct principles throughout the
State.
The only matter of objection that we have no
died in the proceedings, is the Bth Resolution.
which smacks a little too much of "conourvntiv.
lam" fur our views of right and policy. But then,
much depends upon the interpretation which
may be placed upon the terms "adjustment," and
"respected and observed.' Our standard bearer,
Gov. Joinearrow, will toe the mark on this goes•,
lion and relieve us from difficulty in the canvass.
In his speech. in reference to the nominations, on
Tosislay , night, he thus expressed himself, and
was loudly end enthusiastically cheered through-
out;
He spoke frankly and freely on the comprom
ise measures. He should nover have voted for

:STON, Pennsylvania's Whig Governor,
deserves and will receive the, gratitude of '
her tax-paying thousands for his enticing
devotion and zeal to secure and further their
interests, by perfecting a Sinking Fund Sys
tem, that must ultimately pay that oppres
sive State Debt, which has been fastened
upon them by the profligacy and extrava
gance of our opponents; and for his efforts
to complete and bring into successful op
eration, the unfinished public works, with
out increased taxation, thus proving hotv
wisely and how well he has watched over
and guarded every-interest, devised every
means, and directed all, that the welfare of
the whole people should be secured.
12. Resolved, That the Whig party, and
all such members of other parties as feel a
common interest in the prosperity and
good name of Penney lvania, entertain a just
pride in an executive officer who has firm-•
ly maintained her honor and faith at home
and abroad, and who has defended with a
bility her principles and polidy whenever
and wherever assailed.
13. Resolved, 'Chat the history of Gov
ernor. Johnston's administration furnishes
the safest guaranty that on all subjects
submitted for his consideration, his action
thereon will be governed, influenced, and
directed by a faithful regard to truth, jus
tice and the requirements of die constitu-
tier..
14. Rewired, That Gen. WINFIELD
SCOTT is, beyond question, the choice
of the Whigs of Pennsylvania as their can
didate for the Presidency in 1852, and
that we earnestly recommend him to the
Whigs of the Union, as the most deser
ving and available candidate fur that high
office.
Pending the question upon the adoption of these
resolutions, John M. Scott, Esq., of Philadelphia,
moved the insertion of the following as an amend.

that given to Gen. Jackson; but Governor
Johnston was wide awake, traversing the

Locolocolmns and Slamery
The Democracy of Pennsylvania are bidding
high for the support of the South in favor of Mr.
Buchanan for the next Presidency. The Read
ing Convention, which nominated Mr. Bigler, riot
only ',yellowed the COtTlpfollllllo measures of last
Congress—Fugitive tilave Bill and all—hut went
a step further in the work of self.prostitution to
to the !lave power, by declaring its political fra
ternization with the Sl* , einilder, and adopting the
following resolut.ion
"3. RESOLVRD, That the Democratic
party of Pennsylvania are trite to the U
nion, to the Constitution and the Laws,
and will faithfully obserVe and execute, an
far as in them lies, all the measures of
Compromise adopted by the late Congress
for the purpose of abiding the question a
rising out of domestic shivery ; and this,
not only from a sense of ditty, as_ good
citizens of the republic, but also from the
kindandfraternalfeelingswhich they cher
ish towards their brethren of the slave
holding States."
MORE ANNEXATION PROPOSED.—The
New York Tribune sap that agents of the Mexi
