QT We have received from the American pub
lishers, --Lartisetto Score sk. eu., the ...London
Querrerly Review." for January. The contents
embrace—l. Memoirs on KW/4M and German
Campaigns; 2. Kew Gardens; 3. Physiognomy;
4 Junius: 5. Highland Destitution and Irish Em
igration; 6. Heron's Notes ; 7. Felines History
of the Roman Staten ; S. The French Autocrat. ,
We have not bad !tinily to glance at any but the
4th and bth articles. The fanner is an able and
eitecedingly interesting:thong/non of the brig moot
ed question as to the authorship of -Junius"—
The speculations in regard telt& Philip Francs,
and -oilier names hitherto connected with thine
mysterious letters; are vigorously assailed, and an
ingenious and elaborate argument is made to fit
them upon a new candidate—Thomas Lyttletou,
son at the famous Earle. The writer beats down
with much severity upon Junius, and is inclined to
I class him with -those patriots who devote them
selves to the regeneration of their country when
they betorne bankrupt in character by a shameless
pursuit of sensual pleasures" The .abandoned
profligacy." "diesolute habits." "subtle falsehood,'
and -guarded hypocrisy," of Winston, are relied
on. among other things, to establish the identity of
the two charicters. The article on Napoleon is a
severs review of the doings of the new French
despot sines his accession to power.
LOPThe Concert of vocal and instrumental :au
reic, on Monday night last, by -Getty, loxlge Hand,"
end an' association of amateur vocalists, wee well
ettirdea, and pinged off in fine style The Hand
fully sustained itabigh reputation, while tho vocal
part of the entertainment et-doctorl credit upon all
concerned. The receipt.; over and above all ex
pense-a amounted to something like s4o—to be de
voted to charitable purpotes.
Th -re are ono or teen things connected with
•
theosgpublic entertainments, which. as caterer. fur
the public. it is our prerotpitivr, as it cony be nor
duty, to notice in this 1:01111eCU.11. First it should
be made a sine quo non in all rooms designed for
public purposes that the upper wishes of the win
! dews move freely cud easily. To say nothing of
the injury to bealth writhe consequence of breath
, in t, and ni..bieNthing the brand and foul air of
a crowded moot, personal comfort alone should
require it. Wu believe the Hall in which these
entertainments mu held—fur which Our comma•
I nity is indebted to dot enterprise and public spirit
of the proprietor of the building—was intended to
be provided for in this respect, but there appears
to be some defect, by reason of which the desired
end is seldom attained. It should be remedied at
I owe.
Another annoyance arises from the fact that
thereon always some mannerless buys (and occas
ionally large ones, too) that gain admittance on
theme oecaiiiime, who. es ignorant of the proprieties
of life as they are lacking iu manners, make it a
point to give ample evidence of this by resorting
to every possible mode of annoying an audience,
with witless ejrculations, whistling, end other
baffoiinery We du not know of coy practical
remedy for this 'neisange, other than fur the at.:
tendon*, on such occasions to make an example
ammo half dozen of them by hustling them out
of the room• If the annoyance be permitted to
continue, the effect must be to deter ladies and all
who have a respect for the decencies of life from
attending these public entertainments.

Jr. J. E. 4101CLus,(Clicef Engineer olk the

become's' the Ageneorthe Board to solicit`
subscriptions of Stock for the construction
of the Rind. We understand that it is
Mr. &ours' intention to go to work in a
few days and test the disposition of the
citizens of the ceunty in rho matter,
we bespeak for him a cordial reception at
the hands of all upon whom ho may call. '
The day for argunient•in, regard to the
importance or propriety of the Railroad in
view, has gone by. We presume there is
no one who feels interested in the prosper
ity of the County that is not fully impress
ed with a full conviction that it is fleece- ,
nary that we be placed in connection withi
the lines of improvements 'which are being;
dawn around us in all directions, if we
would not be thrown still further from the
legitimate field of enterprise than we now
are—if, in a word, we do not wish to be
laid "high and dry." Such being the
general conviction, it remains but to
put that conviction to a-practical test, by a
prompt, liberal and generous subscription
of stock. No man, it matters not what be
his calling or his circumstances, should
bold back. Every one is interested, and
every one should subscribe. If you can
not' afford to give $lOOO, give $5OO ; if not
$5OO, give $4OO, $3OO, $2OO, or $100;
and if not $lOO, give $5O. Every man—
married or single—in business or out ofl
business—can go that much, at lout, and
not feel it when the road is completed.—
Why full one-half, if not more, of the cost
of the Road will be returned to-the pockets
of our Farmers, Mechanics, and Business
men, before the Road is completed, in the
increased demand for Hour, grain, market
ing, and labor gcuorally, incident to the
prosecution 'of works of this kind.
Let all go to work then, and back the
Commissioners iu their commendable en
ergy and enterprise iu this movement, not
only by subscribing liberally tbetnselves,
but by giving the Agent, Mr. SICKLES, a
hearty and liberal co-operation.
Canal Commissioner.
11Cf• Jaeon FlorrmaN, Esq., of Berke
county, is favorably spoken of in a number
of Whig papers, as a candidate fur the of
fice of Canal Commissioner. We have no
personal acquaintance with Mr. H., but
have long known him by reputation as a
tried, faithful and true-hearted Whig.—
A capital public speaker, he did yeoman's
service in the cause last fall by taking the
stump day and night. In Berks county he
is possessed of strung personal popularity,
as has been evinced on more than one oc
casion when before the people as a candi
date for local offices by his reducing very
materially the heavy majorities of that be
nighted county.
We should be ready to give the nomina
tion of Mr. Hoffman a cordial endorsement,
were it not that Adams county can furnish
an equally good, if not better, nominee.—
We allude to Wm. R. SADLER, E sq.,
whose name was so prominently before
the Whig State Convention two years a
go as a candidate for the same post. Mr.
SADLER had just completed a Senatorial
term with credit to himself and service to
the State, and loft that body with a repu
tation which of itself, withoutsolicitation or
agency on his part, came near securing
for him the nomination. Mr. S. is a gen
tleman of shrewd business capacity, great
energy of character, stern integrity—and
well versed with the Internal Improvement
,system—the very kind of a man we need
in the Canal Board. We do not know
that his name will be pressed in connec
tion with the post, nor do we pretend to
know hie own wishes in the matter—but
we feel well assured that a nomination
more "fit to be made," under all the cir
cumstances, could not well be desired.

A bill has passed the House of Repre
sentatives, authorizing the Courts of Com
mon Pleas to ishange the names of persons.
Is provides that the Court designated shall
have the power tp change names upon the
pay memt of4 l lo ) :.orwhich /aunt 42 Asir go
I! to.the Prothonotary, !India to the State,
and after the decree is male, the CoUri
shall order its publication for. four mecca
sive weeks, iu two newspapers published in
the County of the residence of the person
ihaving his name so changed. On final
I passage the bill was further amended so as
to allow Courts to change or amend the
charter of engine or hose companies or of
literary or charitable associations.
A bill has been reported in the House
to appoition the State into Congressional I
districts. It is the result of a caucus meet- 1
ing of the Locofoco tocalbers, and way
'pass that brook. The Senate will have a
say in thellitatter, however. Adams and
York 'continue together. Dauphin and
Schuylkill get a member; also, Franklin,
Cumberland, Perry and Fulton. The bill
would give a decided majority of the dele
gation to the opposite patty. ,It is hardly
worth while to publish the bill, as it must
be materially altered before it becomes a
law.
A bill has been introduced in the House
to make the amount of property exempt
from levy and sale on executionlsoo.
The Bill to repeal certain Sections of
the Anti-Kidnapping Act of 1847 was un
der discussion in the Senate on TuesdiLy.—
Senator Muhlenbarg moved to amend so
as to repeal the entire act—the effect of
which would be to allow the introdqction
of Slaves into the Commonwealth for tem
porary residence. The amendment receiv
ed five votes--Buckalow, Jones, Muhlen
, burg, MeCaslin and Skimer. The Senate
adjourned pending the discussion of the
Bill. Our Senator, Mr. Carson, we are
pleased to notice, took decided grounds a
gainst the Bill.
The Bill to incorporate the New Oxford
Railroad Company passed the Senate final
ly on Saturday.
Numerous memorials asking for the a
doption of the Maine Liquor law are pre
seated in both Houses daily. A few re
monstrances hitve also been presented.
*dr The Locofoco papers, to cover up
the outrage of Gov. BIOLKR in extending
to Alberti, the notorious kidnapper, a free
pardon in such indecent haste, are pub
lishing a list of pardons by Gov. Johnston
during his term. We believe that Gov.
Johnston extended fewer pardons than I
most of his predecessors. But suppose he
did wrong. That cannot exense Goy. Big
lea. Two wrongs never make a right. But
the wrong in the present instance exists in
the fact thatAlberti was pardoned, not by
reason of any supposed injustice done him
in his trial and and sentence, but simply
and avowedly as a kind of propitiatory re
sponse to the rampant demands of Gov.
Lowe. The Germantown Telegraph, a
I •
neutral but independent paper, not by any
means tainted with "fanatical abolition
ism," thus honestly alludes to the pardon
ing of Alberti :
"We regret to state that one of the first
sets of Guy. Bigler, was the pardon of ,
George Alberti, the notorious negroe steal
er and slave-catcher, who about a year or
eighteen months ago. was convicted in the ,
Court of Sessions of this county for kid-
napping, and sentenced by Judge Parsons
to ten years' imprisonment. Alberti. for
many year* wee known to be engaged in
this nefarioss business. and several times
had barelyslipped through the meshes of the
law ; hence, when he was last convicted
on good and sufficient evidence, of the
crime, the Judge seems to have remem- 1
bered his old °fiances. and in passing sen
ience upon him, perhaps gave him a few
more years than he would have done had it
been a first offence. Be this as it may,
George richly deserved at least five years
of imprisonment, and had the Governora
waited until that period had arrived, we
should not have a word of complaint to of
fer; but toast at large, under present cit.-
curnstances—that is, as a propitiation to
the slave•holders of Maryland—we are
bound to condemn it in the strongest terms.
If Governor Bigler intends this as an
earnest for what is to follow, then there is
no need, that we can see, of a longer con
tinuance ofour criminal courts. We pray.
however, that he will reflect well upon this
subject. and let the law have its course,
except in cues where great and manifest
injustice would be inflated upon an inno
cent man." •
The West Chester Republican (dem.)
thus speaks of the pardon :
""We regret most sincerely that we can
not concur in, the exercise of the pardoning
power ,in this instance. When Alberti
wai convicted and sentenced, we said the
Penitentiary had at last got, one of it. own.
We believed he was then—we believe' he
is still s'fit 'lsUbjec t fir that place. We
have had 'some ittiowledge of him—Ais
character in this community, her been
ItnoWn for about i'wentY-five years ; and
we have yet to hear the first one speak to
t noutoutatkilon of him," , ,

In the Senate on Tuesday, Mr. Cooper
presented four remonstrances against the

day, besides numerous private petitions.
The IVashington correspondent of the
N. Y. Tribune introduces to public notice
a new member, Mr. Marshall, of Califor
nia, who made his debut iu the House
the other day on a debate on the Mileage
question :
"The House had a tussel to-day on the
Mileage. It is a grim spectre, winch

hot likely to down at their bidding.—l

shaved since he started for the diggings,
made a striking etlort in defence of his
$4,000 mileage. His arguments were
quite as unique as his personal appear
ance. He declared that the cost of his
electioneering campaign was quite enough l
to absorb the whole of his mileage. And
he went on to enumerate the items such
as mule feed, which he reckoned at $5 a I
day, whiskey at 50 cents a "drink"—ob
serving that lie had sometimes to treat a
hundred at a lick ; and so on. lie . 4 3180
demanded of the House that no reduction
of his mileage should take place, as the ex- ,
penses of a triumphant organization of the
"Democratic party" were very great and
to be considered by the majority of that
body.
THADDEUS STEVENS remarked here in
an under-tune, that the charge for "drinks"
ought to be allowed, for it was impossible
to organize the "Democratic" party with
out whiskey. Mr. MARSHALL added,
however, that he went to California on a
"high mission," and that he totally disre
garded filthy lucre. He informed the
House that he was a lawyer, and had re
ceived as much for a two hours' plea as
other lawyers of the House had received
for a whole year's service. Ile hail thus
learned to disregard gold. In fact, lie had
been lucky, and had made his "pile."—
But he had another new idea about mile
age. He thought the expenses of going
to Californil for the purpose of coming
back as a member, ought to be covered
by mileage. He remarked that it cost
him nine months' time to go there, and
three months to be elected, beside the
"drinks." Now for a mrn who values
his efforts as high as Mr. MARSHALL seems
to, by the charge be makes for his foren
sic displays, it would be a small business,
indeed, to receive less than 84,000 mile
age. On the whole, the remarks of the
honorable member, displayed a degree of
smartness, of vanity, and conceit, that ren
dered his first appearance quite a piquant
entertainment."
Corruption on the Public Works.
iiirThe Whig Press of the State has
been laboring for years to expose the gross
corruption which has so Ring characterized
the management of the Public Works, but.
in vain. Tho facts adduced, and the cen
sures so freely , expressed, have been attrib
uted to partisan prejudice ; while the Ca
nal Commissioners and their dependants
have uniformly managed to bring tho ma
chinery of party to bear in such a way as
to prevent any official investigation of the
alledged corruption. The matter is taking
a new torn now: Prominent members :of
the opposite party have become impressed
with a conviction, of the truth of the
ohargety and an investigation will probably
be now made by the Legislature. We hope
that it. may prove ft , thorough' one, and that

'',ll resolution of inquiry has been offer- i
ed in the Senate of Pennsylvania, by Sep-,
ator Muldenberg, of this county, in regard
to the matiugetnent, income, and expendi-;
tures of our Staid line of public improve-1
meats. - Grave charges of fraud are alleg
ed, and the accounts officially given to the
public are said to be made up fur the occa
sion, designed-twenneest their true condi
tion and actual receipts from the public'
eye, and that a system of double-dealing
is practised, by which no trite and accurate
account can be rendered, and the amount
dishonestly withheld from the State there-,
fore wholly unknown; but the state of the
returns are sufficient in themselves, as now
made, to shoW that a great game of plun
der is practised by many or those who
have charge of our public works.
oft is well known that several attempts
have been made by the Legislature, at va
rious times; to sift the matter, and bring
the whole subject to the inspection of the
public. Such an effort was made in 1849,
when a committee was appointed by the
House of Representatives, to investigate
these abuses, with power to send for per
sons and papers, the result of which has
beim spread before the public and amount
ed 73 but little. Enough was elicited, how
ever, to show that thepublic improvements
of this Commonwealth to a very great ea:-
tent, are managed by a set of political
rogues, who are annually fleecing the pub
lic treasury out of thousands of dollars,
and who, in spite of the Legislature, have
thus far managed to escape detection.—
Legislative action, we begin to think, from
past feikires, is not the proper way of get
ting hold of the guilty, fur the parties int
plickned are so numerous, and influence so
various, secret and powerful, and compri
sing men who are as yet held in high es
teem, and who arc. not even suspected,
that all ellnris in that respect have been
most signal failures, so tar as any practi
cal good to the State is concerned. We
trust, however, that the enquiries proposed
by Mr. Mulenherg will be pushed to the
furthest evremity, that lull, fair, honest,
end r,,theal efforts will be made to break
up the den of thieves, high and low, great
and small, Who have, for years, been prey
ing upon the property of the people. The
mover of these resolutions of inquiry has
our most earnest wishes for his success,
and we ltope that every honest man in
the Legislature will urge on and watch the
progress of investigation, and bring nil
who may be discovered to justice, without
fear, favor or affection."
Honors to Washington
il if-The anniversary of the birth of
WASHINGTON, was celebrated this year
with more than usual spirit throughout the
Country. The •2.2,1 falling on Sunday, Mon-
was generally. observed. At Harrisburg
the Farwell Address was read in the pres
ence of both Ilonsei: In Baltimore Phil
adelphia, Y. York andßoston, and other
cities, festivals were gotten up with much
care. At N. York, Mr. Webster made an
able and an elaborate speech before the
Ilistorical Society upon the "Administra
tion of Washiugtou,” which is highly spo
ken of by tlit.lPress, At Washington there
was a Congressional banquet, wititout dis
tinction of party—a number of speeches
being made by members of Congress and
others. lieu. Scott was present by invi
, tutiou and responded to the seventh toast,
which was as follows :
..The Army of the United State —May it ever be
actuated by the spirit, end governed by the prin
ciples, or him who was fat in peace, first in war,
and first in the hearts of his country men." [Music.)
Major General Scott was loudly called
fur, when he arose, and was greeted with
much enthusiasm. He was in full mili
tary dress. and after stating that in the war
of 1812-15, and more recently in the war
south of this, in a foreign country, and on
all occasions, the army has marched and
fought with the lively recollections of the
services of the Father of his country, he
proceeded to say :
All human merit is to be judged of by
sacrifice and by suffering. The army of
the revolution stands beyond all soldiers—
without clothing, no food, their ammuni
tion insufficient, and their pay precarious
and of no value. The army in his day ,
has had ho such circumstances to contend
with ; and this is why the palm should be
given to the glorious revolutionary army.
This is a great and sacred day in the es
timation
of every soldier with whom he
was associated. lie had never been
at any military post on the 22d of Febru
ary that it was not duly honored by a dis
play of banners and by festivities appro
priate to the occasion. He had partici
pated in the celebration in the principal
capital in Europe, and had found his pa
triotism elevated by it. It fell to his lot,
with the army, to celebrate it in the capi
tal of Mexico, another foreign country.—
[Applause.] The general concluded by
offering as a toast :
"The memory of Washington—Do we
ask for hie monument ? Behold this cap
ital add the thirty-one sovereign States
which 'this capital represents."
'He took his seat amid loud plaudits.
"Fitly-filar Forty or Flight i"
2The N. Y. Tribnce—the leading
Daily journal in the Empire State, if not
in the country—is battling manfully in fav
or of the adoption of the Maine Law in that
State. The temperance men are up and
adding; and, on the other tide, the Rum
sellers of that vast City' are moving in

a law we are all willing to stand under
and (if such he its fate) fall with ; but no

act screening great mischief-makers and
bearing down on little ones can possibly
be fastened on the advooateis of Temper
ance. They disown and loathe it.
For our own part, we are opposed to
legalizing the manuacture ur sale of intoZ
'kitting Liquors for Medicinal, Mechanical
or any other purpose. There is no need
of it, and great harm in it. That Alcohol
may be useful in various contingencies we
do not dispute ; for Arstinic, Opium and
other poisons are so ; and it is not probs.
ble that this single member of the family
should have no good end whatever. Let
si leohol---pure undiluted Aleohol--be
manufactured and sold without license ;
let doctors and others use it as they shall
see fit; but this undisguised poison no
one would drink ; and we protest against
all tampering with, coddling up and dis
tinguishing it so that the ignorant, the sim
ple, the victims of depraved appetite, shall
be tempted to imbibe it where they would
reject the naked poison. All such weav-
Mg of snares for the feet of the unwary is
indefensible, is demoniac, and ought to be
prohibited by law.

The Liquor TraMc.
MESSRS. EDIToRd :—The tone of tho
"Star" in relation to prompt and efficient
Legislative action in our State, prohibiting
the sale of Intoxicating Liquors, has met
with very general and decided approbation
in this vicinity. Among the numerous
Petitiohs afloat in our County, having that
object in view, I have observed OTIC num
bering some sixty signatures—of whom
nearly all are persons who have never been
identified with the Temperanee Reforma
tion. Though they readily accord much
credit to its efforts, they doubt its efficiency.
The present crisis seems to demand a more
speedy and effectual remedy. A mere ab
rogation of the License Law is power
less as a remedy for smuggling Tippling
Houses in our midst, are scattering broad
east their blighting and withering influ
ences with most steady and fatal effects,—
while the existing Laws in relation to this
evil have become a nullity—their provi
;ions being rarely enforced. It is very evi
dent then that nothing short of a rigid en
actment, equal in its character to the pro
visions of the Maine Law, will effectually
arrest this increasing evil.
Interest and appetite generally shape tho
arguments of the opponents of this meas
ure. The objector says, "destroy our
Distilleries and you depreciate the price of
our corn." Let us examine the strength
of this position. Some twenty years ago,
Corn rated in this neighborho xl from
thirty-one to forty cents per bushel ; then
nine Distilleries were in full operation
within three miles of this town ; but years
have passed since ; every fire has gone
out—every House has been demolished,
save one—and corn readily commands fifty
oents—and I believe has more than avers
ged that price for the past ten years.
But again : the objector urges, "cut off
the Revenue arising from the .Liceoto sys
tem and you necessarily increase our
Taxes." The practical workings of this
Law ip the State of Maine, in the reduction
of Criminal l'rosecutions, and the &loess°
of the Poor Tax, fully Rumen, this objec
tion. But, if additional proof wem .IWees

A Thrilling Occurrence.
A dreatlhil iide,ident oecured OH the New

New York Tribune gives the following
particulars from an eye witness :
“Wliett the engine, with a baggage ear

cunning to keep in a hue with them.—
Hopes were procured Irani the engine, and
after some minutes of fearful sliSpellSe,
with die aid of a skill and a board thrown
to one of them to be used as a paddle they
were both rescued in a helpless colic! tont.
By this Wile, we hail learned that the pas
aJuger car behold us, the last of the train,
was just the other side of the curve, thrown
entirely into the I)cluwase river, with all
who were in it. We hastened to the spot
and lo! thirty leet below us was the ear,
almost buried under the water, and the
poor creatures within were thrusting their
arms out of the whitlows calling for help.
Two or three of them had crawled upon
the roof ant were beset:cling us to save
them.
The scene at first seemed to strike every
one dumb with horror. The smooth wall
ed precipice could not be descended. We
were obliged to go a little further up the
river, where there is no wall, but only a
gravel bank, and there slide down to the
waters edge. The car, at its nearest end,
was about 25 loot from the shore, the wat
er was deep. and running very swiftly.—
Boards were found upon,the
.beach, but
unite of them were long enough. After
half an hours' hard work a dead trunk of
a hemlock tree was shoved into the last
window, with the other end resting on the

built, upon which those able to walk were

holes cut hrough the roof, and one after

"It was one of the most thrilling scenes
sever imagined. A young girl was drawn
up, and at once began to plead that her
mother might be saved ; a husband begged
for his wile's rescue, friend struggled to
save friend. An old lady of seventy years
was drawn out of the river insensible, but
soon revived. Upon getting the sufferers
ashore, the only way to get them to a place
of relief wait to put ropes round their bo
dies, under the arms, and draw them di
rectly up the precipice: The severe cold
incapaeitated them for raising hardly a

The People of the Petal' *W on '
In one of the lectures of 1/x. Kane be.
hive the Smithsonian Ipatituls, Up gave the
following accoont of the people who inhabit
the Polar Region, adjoining Baffin's Bay :
..Am race of people who inhabit the
country adjoining Balfin's Bay and its
tributaries are so little known, that any
thing in reiatiou to them is caught up with
avidity. 'l'his arrival. furnishes us with
a sight of some of their distinctive charac
teristics, in dress and otherwise. The
dress of a married lady is composed of a
pair of short seal skin pants, fur outside,
extending nearly to the knee joint, where
it meets with the legs of the boots, made of
the same material or of deer skin. The
upper part of the person is covered with a
•jumper, or a kind of sack, with a hood
for the head and sleeves, made whole, with
the exception of a place for the head and
amine. This also is made of seal skin, or
deer skin, and in the warm weather is
covered with a fancy colored cotton cloth
sack. In the coldest and wet weather, the
cloth sack is removed, and a seal skin
covering, without fur, placed in its stead.
The dress of an unmarried lady is distin
guished by a broad band, made of fancy
figured webbing, about 21 inches wide,
sewed on each side of the front of their
pants, extening nearly the whole length of
them.
A married woman can also be distin
guished from an unmarried one by the
hair, which in both cases is tied on the
top of the head, and the ends of that of
the married colored blue, and the Hilmar
led, red. This enables a gallant to act the
amiable, without danger of making ad
vances to some one already married, and
getting a stray shot from an injured hus
band. The boots are made very neatly,
slender, and well porportioned. The
deer skins are dressed in a beautiful man
ner, simply by drying and rubbing them on
a smooth stone. A pair of slippers com
pletes the wardrobe of a lady in the Esqui
maul country ; these are made of deer
skins, and nearly fringed around the top !
with the white rabbits fur. The clothing
which was shown us was made in a very
I tasty and strong manner, every thread used
being made of the sinews of the deer, and
of course very durable. The dresses of
the males are very similar to that of the
married ladies, with the exception that
they are longer and rather heavier, The
Dimes are Ele.titrred around among the Es.
quint and furnish them - what loreign
articles they may want, which are limited
to steels lor their spears, and some few or
nanients 14 their desses, and coloring fur
their heir and ladies' boots. The seal
seems to furnish them will' almost every
thing they seem to require—loud, clothing,
and even fuel.

dictiveness pisrallele4t eltly by other in"
i.raetised by the same malingers.—
Few, if any, respectable men in tire coun
try now lelleve that the charge had any
fotottLition in truth. Mr. Clay has amply
vtadwated himself. and the recantation of
Carter Itt•vert%, the manly and creditable
letter 01 Gen James liamiltom and the
letters—now public—but long in the pits
slim of Francis P. Bl.tir. have deprived
this miserable calumny of whatever sem
. blaitee of truth may have at times been
thrown around it.
James Buell:ulna's name has often been
coupled with that transaction. Seriow;
charges against him hate been made in cot•
nexion with it, but his friends have never
undertaken to defend him ; nor has Ike at
tempted to defend himself. He still keeps
silent, although with one word he might
lorever dissipate ally shadow of doubt and
Show that Mr. Clay was actuated by no
corrupt or unworthy motive iu accepting
the odic° of Secretary of State. Cu this
subject a correspondent of the Boston
Journal thus alludes to Mr. Buchanan:
'He has imposetl upon himself a silence that
betokens the conseimsness harrowing guilt. It
is in his power to du justice to Henry Clay, while
yet he lives. so that his setting sun tt henever w,t
-' noised, shall be what it was 111 its midday splendor.
But he will not do it. Magnanimity, an attribute
, of genuine greetne>s, does out belong to his char
acter."
We puldialt this at the home of Mr. Bu
chanan—where he is well known and
where he and hia friends may see what is
expected of him by others. And we ask
—Will Mr. Buchanan state his knowledge
of the circumstances out of which grew
the charge so bitterly and so falsely made
against Mr. Clay's character f Will he
allow Mr. Clay to descend to his grave be
fore he repairs the injury he did him ?
Or will he still continue in the position of
a libeller of thatgreat, honorable and honest
man f—li n o. Tribune.
EFFECT IN PARIS OF Ma. WEBSTER ' s
KOSSUTH BANQUET SPEECII.—Mr. Web
ster's speech at the Kossuth banquet in
Washington has provoked sharp animad
version in several of the Paris Journals.—
T:te Journal des Debats deems the pur
port of the speech and the toast "extraor
dinary,
strange, repugnant to law and his
tory." The Assemblee Nationale says :
"The most serious attention is due from
the great European poWers to what has
passed at Washington. The Government
of the United States, impelled by the
Democratic passions that 'rule over it, has
abandoned the policy of George Wash
ington. It no longer restricts itself to the
I interests of trade and navigation, butdreams
of exercising an influence over European
politics. Any measure taken against the
envoy of Austria at the American capital,
must be considered, not as the quarrel of
Austria aloae, but as the common quarrel
aii.l concern of the Old World, ,resisting
the absurd pretensions of the 'American
Republic."
VIRGINIA AND SMALL Nonts.--Resolu
tions are before the Virginia House of
Delegates requesting ilinGoverner to open

Maryland. Pennsylvania. Ohio. K t entuoky,
Tennessee and North Carolina, and urge
them to co-operate with Virginia in the
passage of a law restricting the circulation
'of 'Hank notes in such a manner as to ere
vent the issue of notes of a less denomina
tion than $6. Another resolution instructs
the members of Congress from Virginia to
urge the passage of 'a law to prevent the
circulation of small notes in the District
of Columbia.

How. lirmsir Ctoor AND Galt. LAYAYI,
irtra.—'rhe National Intelligeneer of Mon:
day contains the fbllowing note' froth
. . -•
Mr. Clay :
Jl Correction.—A. paragraph is going
the round of the newspapers, stating that
the answer .of Gen. Lafayette to the ad
dress which, as Speaker ot the House of
Representatives, I made to him upon the
occasion of his last visit to this country,
was prepared by me, though pronounced)
by him. This is a mistake, which, in
justice both to his memory and to myself,
ought to be corrected: It was composed
by himself, as the style abundantly shows. '
On the morning of his reception by the
House of Representatives he breakfasted!
with me alone, and I stated to him the ad ,
dress which I intended to make to him on I
that day. The expession occurs in it,
that he was in the midst of posterity ; on'
reading which I remarked to him that it
would afford him a tine opportunity to
pay us a handsodne compliment, which he
might do by saying : No, and-that he
found himself surrounded by the same
patriotic men, attached to liberty, devoted
to free institutions, and with all the high
attributes which distinguished his revolu•
tionary compatriots. The General seem
ed pleased with the idea, adopted it, and
incorporated it In his answer. This tri
vial incident could have been the only
foundation of the parag r aph. H. CLAY.

LOUIS NAPOLEON'S PARENTAGE.
The personal character of Louis Napole
on is sornownat enigmatical. His mother,
Hortense Beauharnais, was a woman of
exceedingly bad lite, however history may
have glossed her annals. Before marriage,
she had two children—one by Napoleon,
which died early ; the other by a French
man—N. Flahaut—the present De Morny,
late Minister of the interior. Louis Na.
poleon; burn after her marriage with Louis
Napoleon, king of Holland, is very gener
ally regarded as the natural son of a Dutch
ad:niral notorious as the queen's lover.—
His physiognomy, his complexion, his air
and habits are all Dutch. lie is slow and
taciturn.
Still, he is himself convinced of his true
Napoleonic blood and Origin, and really
has or affects to have an astrological faith
in his high destiny. Ile belietes himself
born to walk in the footsteps of the great
Napoleon, and hence we see him reviving
the institution? of the Empire with a sort
of Chinese fidelity of imitation. lie has
reached the point and power of the First
Consul, and it is generally believed that
he will soon put on the Crown of the Em
pire. If he does, will he not try to play
the Emperor at the head of an army ?
Borne on by militrry power, will lie not
be forced by the very momentum of 11,3
career to make wat on the adjacent na
tions ?.—[London Cur. N. P. Cum.
OFFRR DECLiNED.
—The New Orleans Delta, a Democratic
paper, refers to a fact of which it says it
has been some time cognizant, that Gen
Sco'r•r, when in the city of Mexico, alter
its capture„.was offered by . several 'of 'the
wealthiest citizens of the Mexican Repub
lic to he made Prtanient of that country ;
and as an inducement to .the offer, they
hound themselves to settle upon hint the
loin of one million of dollars. "The
splendid offer," says the Delta, "was de
clined by the General, with scarcely a mo
ment's consideration. The brave old sol
dier could not he tempted by such induce
ments to abandon the flag under which he
had acheited so much renown and honor."
THE! WORLD ' S FAIR AT NEw YoRR•—
The citizens of New York are to make an
effort to ensure the success of the propos

expense of erecting the necessary building

foreigners, have, it is said, already de
clared their intention of becoming exhibi

KOSSUTH CONTRIDUTLONS IN C INCIN
NATI.—The city of Cincinnati appears to
take the lead in contributing "material aid"
to Hungary. Kossuth is daily receiving
large sums of money. On the 18th inst.,
the Ladies' Hungarian Association of that
city presented him with $BOO. On the
same day, the Typographical Union hand
ed him a silver case, which cost 848. en

EARTIMILIAIc , 6.—The papers of Cecil
and Harford counties (Md.) speak of a
shock resembling that of an earthquake,
which was felt in different sections of
those counties on Monday oflast week.—
The Havre de' Grace Madisonian says
that the shock or jarring was felt for
twelve miles around that vicinity. The
general opinion .was that an explosion of a
powdemnill on the Brandywine had,oc
curred, but this not being the case, the con
clusion was general that it was as earth
