•The Galled :Jade Whates.”
The soreness' of the Compiler over our
notice. of the doings of its friends at their
primary meeting in this place, shcrit that
we have bit the mark. "Wounded birds
will flutter;" it is said. We do assure our
neighbor that we have not the least desire
to "interfere" with the affairs of either its
peculiar friends or the " Young- licsnoe,
racy." The latter, wo think, have thus
far given abundant evidence 'of their abil
ity to manage fur themselves, withont
terfennice" from any quarter. Don't you
think so, neighbor ? At all events, our
notice 'was altogether pro bono public.—
. designed to lot the world know how mat
tem and things are going on around us—
' and . the Compiler ought not to take it in
such high dudgeon. Moderation, neighbor,
I it is still nearly four weeks to the election,
and it will not do to get "cross" so early

A BILLER DEMOCRAT
Mr. Strohm & the Mexican War.
ZarThe Compiler reitenttes its charge
that Mr. Smolt NI voted ogainst furnishing
supplies for the srmy in Mexico, while it
KNows that 3lr. Strohm VOTED FOR ALL
the supply bills except the one containing
the lying preamble about War ‘''existing
by the Act of Mexico.". The American
Congress, a year afterwards, by a solemn
vote, resolved that that preamble DID con
tain a falsehood—the war having been
commenced, not by the net of Mexico, but
by the arbitrary and unconstitutional act
of President Polk in ordering an invading
army into disputed territory. This lying
prilamble was prefixed to the first supply
biil with a view of Mg the Whig Mem
bers of Congress to the alternative of either
voting for what they believed to he false
or of opposing the Bill. Jinx sTROII M
rather than do violence to his conscience,
adopted the latter,alternative, and in doing
so, manifested a degree of moral courage
such as is rarely found autong. our pub
men, and such as is now wanted in the
Canal Board, in order to break up the sys
tem of peculation and plunder which has
rendered the administration of the public
works so extravagant. John Strolim• de
serves high honor for his consciencious
vote in Congress ou the first supply
and none but demagogues will charge-It to
his prejudice.
The Complier and the President
JudgesialP.
The Compiler makes i t nn objection to the
re-election of.Judgo Pull KEE that he hat;
already received "the enormous sum of
$29,100," from the State Tretuntry,as Pres
ident Judge, and remarks—
"This isa snug sum for any one man to
receive.. Don't the people think that is e
nough, and that some one else would be quite
as deserving, now to obtain a share of this
public stipend, and would not.unother per
son be quite as able to render them service
in their courts," !to.
Now, to show that the Compiler is not
in earnest in this objection, and that it is
only trying to bamboozle its readers in the
hope of making capital for Judge DIM
KEE's opponent, let us see how much Jorn
pANNIRTER 4or GIiisoN, (whose name the
Compiler flaunts at the b cad of its columns
as a candidate for the Stpreme Bench;)
has received from this' same State Treasury:

Our exposure of the Compiler's article on the

din that occasion, and the denial that Que. John
ston had paid off over half. milliolt of the Mete

ermined debt under Governor Darien and Alter
a*. the amertion that the State Debt Kai increas
ed during his term near *18,000,000. We
had thought we had met this charge explicitly e• i
nough last week, tobe satisfactory to every echool•
boy c a pable of distinguishing the difference be
tween two and four. But the Compiler returns to
the charge with a flourish of capitals about "facts,"
"figures," and "history," that give evidence either
of gross ignorance ore wilful determination to de
delve: Otte would suppose that from the peril.
1 nisch/ with which this charge is made, that; there 1
1 might;be otime gtotind.rierna"oflicial ditit—on ,
which, at lout, to base an argument in its sup- I
port. But in all that the Lucofoco Presses have
to say upon the subject, we beer not . the' first
word Of anything but the garbled electioneering
eta tem, bi of members of its party in former days,
re-hulled for flub use, although their falsity has
been proven time and again. • I'he records in the
Auditor General's Office at, Harrisburg, and the
Officialeteements of sworn officers or (*MTh
ment—members of their own party—are all 'paw)
sad by and carefully avoided as though an infect-
dims disease hovered around them, and caned I
would le instant death. This, of hail; it strikes
us, ought to be sufficient to put honest 'tensible
Democrats on their guard and cast suspicion upon
the statements of their presses.
But we will lake the Compiler on its own
ground, and prove by its own quoted authorit!
that its assertions of an increase of the State Debt
loader Gov. Ranee. it sot true. To guard against
an allegation of misrepresentation, we give this
portion of tho Compi/er's article in its own wortl• :
"Now, let us see what Gov. Porter found the
stele of things to be. In his first message, after
• giving a bibelot statement of the loans and ap
propriations authorized by law-previous to his In.
duction into office, he my' : • "It thus spumoni that
the theta debt amounts to the vast sum of Thirtr•
four millions one hundred and forty-one thousand
Aix hundred and sixty-three dollars and metre
! cents I" Thus an increase of debt during the
1 adieinittration of Gov. Winer will be - seen, a
mounting, in round bombers, to sixteen . millions
of dollars:" _ - • - •
Now, lot the reader turn hie attention to the
Message here gaoled, delivery * when—not upon
Gov. Porter going into Mike, but a year after hie
inauguration. Well, immediately proceeding the
paragraph guoted by the Complier, the Governor
gives a Whole' statement of the Items that go to
make up this debt of $34, 141,663 80, with the
dates of the various loans. Let us examine a few
of the fast. Here they are:
Stock LOllll, Jan.. 26, $1.290.000.00
Feb. 9, 1839, 1,28'1,000 00
:9srch 16,1310, — lOO,OOO 00
March 27, 1839, 470,000 00

Stuck Loan, July 'l/, 1839, 2,0540.100 00
[COMM ICATRD
Now the reader will notice that every one of
the above loans were made during the first year
of Gov. Porter's tern.—Gov. Hither having gone..
out of office on the second Tuesday of Januory,
1830 ! This important fart the Compiler and
other Locefoco papers carefully conceal. Now
let us eme how the account stands according to
Guy. Porter's own showing :

ding to Gov. Porter, $34,141,083 80
Deduct the shove loans ma.l.

And we have $241,540,149 02
as the amount of State Debt when Joseph Hither
went out of otEce—loss, in reality, than when be
went in ! Here, then, we have it in block and
white upon the authority of Goy Porter, and tide
tallies very nearly with the statement made by
Goy. Porter five years efterwinds, when he put
the Slate debt at about 40,000,0t10. and admits
that it was increased about fifteen millions during
his term.
Now are wish the reader to tottlenttand that,
this is the result of theauthority furnished by the
LocolOcos themselves. We have heretofore given
the report of Mr, Putty's pica, Auditor General
of the State, in which he gives a tabular state
ment of the loans constituting the Debt—NOT
ONE OF WHICH WAS MADE DURING
GOY. RIMER'S TERM ! This is the official
statement of a sworn officer of Government, and a
member of the Lobofocu party at that. We dare
them to take it up and disprove the fact we have
stated !
The Copper Mining Operal lonia.
We were 'hewn a few days since, by Mr.
PROCTOR, the suPerintendent of the mining oper
ations at this place of the ...louring', Minims Com
pany," several specimen. of copper recently smelt
ed from the ore taken from the *haft now in work
ing on Jail street, in this borough—also, some
handsome specimens of the ore itself One of
them is of the Grey or Per-Oxide specie., which
it is thought, will yield as high as 90 per cent. ;1
another the Red Oxide, rife:cellars' quality. The
latter, we believe, is found in considerable quantity,
and is growing more abundant. This shaft hea l
been sunk 55 feet, with a lateral drift of upwards '
of 39 feet—the operations being conducted by a
double set of hanils;'dav and night. The con.
glomerate trap rock prevails in the bed through
which the drift is being worked. The result of
the operations during the • last few days, bu been
quite encouraging, and 'those 'who profess tri

the prospectspre also very encoirreging, and that
the work is !ming vigorously prosecuted.
*Should the operations'of these companies prove
suocessful..-stud from the vigor with which the
work is plied, it'may be 'reasonably' inferred that
the indications are such as to juoilY the hope
that they will be sucesaful—thero can be no cal

The Cuban Prisoners.
The Captain General of Cuba has granted an
uneonditional pardon totbreeor-fou'iottba Cuban
prisoners, in response to the application of Capt.
Platt, of the 11. S. sloop of war, Albany. Among
them is Lieut. Vag V SCIITiII, who his given a
detailed account of the Lopez expedition and elm.
cumatancea attending it. He was with Lopez
hoot the moment of leaving New Orleans until
his capture amino the mountains of Cube. He
charges the grossest misrepresentation and decep
tion upon' the part of the reeves in title country
end the men who advised the expedition, and
thinks they should he held reepontible for the
blood of the victims who kill in the unfortunate
enterprise. As to the .promised assistance from
the inhabitants of the Islam! of Cubs, so tar from
this being realised, not a single native joined the
expedition. while all united in the effort to crush
the invading force.
A telegraphic dispatch from New Orleans, re
ceived et Washington on Sunday, stales that the
remainder of the prisoners in Cuba, ene hundred
and thirty in number, were to hove sailed for
Spain on the Bth instant. This intention has
probably been carded out. The announcement
saps:
"The benevolent intentions of the Pres
ident will not, however, flag, and it is un.
derstood that the last steamer to Europe
carried out instructions to Mr. Barringer,
our minister at Madrid, to urge the Span
ish government to exercise mercy towards
hei urifortunate and misguided prisoners."

The subject of this obituary notice was a daugh
ter oil. B. Arnold deceased, of this county. In
early life she made a public profusion of religion,
in the Presbyterian Church, of which she remain
ed a worthy and consistent member to the day of
bar death. During ter sickness she manifested
much patience and e.hristian resignation. Though
her sufferings sometimes were extreme, nut a
murmur escaped her lips. On more than one oc
casion when her severe affliction was made the
subjecfecontrersation, she calmly replied-4l is
all just and right, I have richly deserved all and
much more." To her it wars consoling mike
don. upon her bed of affliction,. that she was ens.
bled by grace, when in health, to make her peace
with God. As death approached. her prospects for
eternity brightened. When she felt that the hour
at her departure_was drawing near. she comfort.,
her aged mother with the hope of being soon re
united again in their father's house—her deeply af
flicted daughters she admonished not to weep fur
her, auguring them that their Inas would belsr
gain. Her death was full of peace. of faith, of joy,
and hope. May the widow's God be the stay of
her mother, aid the father of the fatherless, the
guardian of her children. :she was buried in the old
graveyard, two miles from Hampton and but a
few hundred yards from her father's reedence,
where she was born. J. .M .
