Whit edr Opponent* lay. Our readers, wh o do not like a Locofbco paper, -®*7 bsve a natural cariosity to know what the oppoaiuon papers say of the siren 57 conduct’of toany Whigs, at the late election. We will cry .ud grtlify theta, and at tho same time minister to their amusement., We will begin with the Post, tho legitimate organ of Locofocism in this county. It aaya “One question, has been decided. We refer to too sbriff. The people hare tpoien against the ffttKtt m stheme. Theiaiue was fairly made, and dearly understood. Each vote was deposited With a view to an expression of sentiment on this •object .Let it be noised abroad that the Pnut tn* Pokey of the Whig- party has. been condemn* • ed {n oar state." _ la other words, the Fast means, that the poo* jd« « ftnasyfrania haveulecided in’favor of the 'psaaenlTarffij, which i* opposed to the protection •fltotaatfuiodnstry.. Now, let os see what the A&reoijr* the other oppo&tion print aaya •Tbcw aw other cause#, however, by mean* of which the greatgaia of the democratic party may besaiufactorily explained. Tne whig* have befe. toere mauua,ned enormous • majorities in this 1 county; not because of the attachment of the peo. j pte to wwg principles, but becaucc tho untf n&s always been put toward as a piny i**uie. The \ ®~ #***• wci attempted to have been ployarf off In . UU wags previous totku tltttion.buimfcjl reason to congratulate ovnelpeji that tee have been tnstru tattndefeattngtheirdtrigne. 'Wo have exposed tne faUacy that the whigs nj«ul be regarded as the . exlf friends of protection. We have dcmocstre- 1 ted the.lmpropriety or making the uriff a party question.« We have instated upon the duty of Doth parties going bifare the country upon their respective principles alone.” '* That is, the people of (his county were not Wfcigvbut only-Tanjf men,and es the Mercury has asserted that the Whig party is nor the only Tariff party, and that Democrats are as safe on toatquestions*the Whigs,the LocofocoVotc has been Increased thereby, and the preatuit tiling off in thd Whig vote is rather an evidence of-attach* Umnt to the Tariff than otherwise.' Thi s. from, the Uie election, the sapient editors ofiht opposi tion dresses, draw exactly opposite com lusions. That neither are worth a straw, every >easible politician will eee v j The self gratulation of the editor of the N ercury, is quite amusing. Our neighbor mutt irel ex* ooediggly comfortable' in the contempiati: n of hit great successes in "defeating" the design 1 of the Whigs; and those Whigs who have been striving to build up the Mercury to break down t ;e Post, must feel comfortable 100. We wish then all joy of their successes. • But we must continue’ cur quotations. The Post further says:-* “We take)! that the people have olso decided that there Isjdo honesty iu tho ami siuvVry pre* tensions of tho Taylor men. And further, has not the conduct of.tho present Cnief Magistrate of Pennayhranta been indirec-ly rebuked? Ha has wantonly disgraced his office by hrs lack of d'g nity on several public occa •ions, and tii>! eves of I toe people have been upon Lira." The Mercury editor does not differ quito so widely from his step brother Of tho Postl in this, as In toe Tariffmalter. Their Locoioco icitincte lead them together on every other question. ) The Mer enryaay*:— "Has the administration forfeited the confidence even of Its supporters? We art in,luted to Mine jo— and this has been one of the causes why many members of (be whig party have taken littlo or no Interest in the late contest,'’ - There, ye lazy, good for nothing Whigs, wbo Jfere so sore all woold go ou just as well without your vote, do.you *eo the consequences of your ■conduct! While you are'ontheßtooiofrepent axtee, and jiroteaUng; that you are exceedingly lorry, that yaujhs'd no idea-of each a result, and that you will never Tie napping again, the Mercury is heralding it all obrbad that your works •how that you have lost confidence in ‘‘Old Znc±.’> : and his cabinet, and that that i» the rea«oa you remained at home, Nour, you need not fume and (ret, and say that it is all a Lacafoco slender, ttat you meant no such thing, and that vour confidence ’ la unshaken jn the glotlcos old soldier, and Ihe excellent Whig Cabinet, because your conduct has ‘ given occasion to such.remarks, and iberelsno Other way to mend the matter than to do your doty ho all occasions iu future. But, or the same •object, the Mercury further say?:— “Looking’ however,' at the general result, seeing that in a locality where General Tuylor hod a ma jority of the Whigs have now obtained only • majority varying from', fcOO'lo’lOOO, we regard too result of this election as .conveying n severe condemnation of tho policy of the AdmioisUaiioo, end as an approval 4y tho people of this county of the course which the Mercury has pursued.* ' What vast and important results tbc Whigs bad in view in neglecting to vote in tho late election! According to tbc saga conclusions or qur self* important neighbor, they were two fold:- -first, to administer n a sevtre condemnation of the p ilicy” of■ the Whig Administration nod, second, to give tomr "approval of tks course the Mercury hes K pur~ . Med!* . The latter,' we presume, in the opinion of 1 our neighbor, is the more important of 'the two; and had the most refinance! How comfortable and consolatory to Whig delinquents. l ! 1 AH this; however, is mere talk of the weakest, and, on the part of the Mercury: of the vainest kind. About , fire thousand voters did not torn : out. Of these less than a thousand are Locofocos. At least four thousand Whigs neglected to come to the polls. That 'there persons meant thereby to oppose Protection, as the Post says, oi favor it •a a uo party question, as the Mercury ns itm; or that they meant to show their want of co ifidence in a President and administration which t >ey have just pot in power, and have scarcely tried, as both •ay; or that they meant thereby to show their ap proval of the course of the Mcrcury f in its work of ."defeating the designs of tbeWhigs,” as its) editor bi* lha extraordinary Taqity to «t*eri,:a ibefveriesl j tolly that ever entered the head of a political (yro.

They are jast as much opposed to the' British Tariff of *4 fl, and as anxious for its repeal as ever. They have jast at little confidence that Locos' fooo party will ever do any thing for the relief of cor industrial, interests, as, they had when they Toted for Johnston and Gen.TayJar. They know the nostrums of the Mercary cannot-care their ills, and they no more intended to express their "approval of it* coarse” than they did of the tnuhorfal|ity.o]r,{bo doctrines of Joe Smith.

One morning Uncle Josh came into Jils room, and stood by his aide watehing his : disturbed sleep; Soon as be^waked Unde Josh asked him how bo felt "I’m going to'die, doctor—to die.” '"Who said any thing about dying? Answermy question, will you? how are you?" "Very ill; verv 111, indeed!" “Foh! poh!

They shook hands,' and both sat down in silent grid “Mrs. Jones ia gone, I’m told,” said Uncle Josh, after the first bunt of grief was exhausted. ''She’s gone' and left me behind.” “Solace. Why didn’t you go with her 1 She's up io heaven—a great deal bettor off. You’ll meet her up there, won't you? Da, now.”- “I’ll try.. I’ll endeavor to live as she taught ms to live,” “That’s right. Go to the Lord, and tell him all aboutit It’ll do you'good. But, mao, don’t take on this wayl Don’t now—you'll break ray heart!” and the big tenn rolled down bis furrowed checks as though his heart would break. “I can't help it, doctor. It’s a great relief to cry.” “So it la! so it is! I know that. Cry away as hard you please—l won’t stop you. Jesus wept. He did so. But then,” said Unde Josh—and his countenance, as he brushed away his tears assum ed a look of deep and solemn thoughtfulness, as though he bad upon his mind a sentiment of weigh tv import— u bta then, after all, u's a very eovtvum thing fir men to lost thetr trews." He stepped in one. day to see a mother whose little one had just died. He was much attached to'the family, and usually called the infant his “lit tle pus*." “We!k Annie, little puts has gone to heaven, hey! I'm glad of it!” _ *Ob, doctor! doctor’ don’t say so!" “I will say so! I wijl! I’m glad of it!" The poor mother's heart was almost bursting.— She wept bitterly, and Uncle Josh wept with her. He was grieved beyond mearure to hear her cry ao, and he consoled h£r in this wise. "You women ore the queerest, beings in the world. All men in creation can’t make .me cry; and woman! you;—yon —make rnyheartbreak.— Now, jnat lonk here” —and ho brushed uway hi* tears—“suppore vour littio lamb out yonder was drawing, .wouldaH you take it out if you could, and nurse it, and put it in the clover patch'" “Oh, yes; to bo sure I would.” “So would I. And you wouldn’t pnt it back in the water again?” "No, no; never!” ~ “Welt, then. I toll you wbaJi-iar Ikpow all about it, j our baby teas most drovned • hen, and the Lord has tahzn it trj* to Heaven?' One autumn there hapjwned to be a plentiful supply of-applet in Uncle Josh's orchard.. He was, of course, delighted with the prospect; and it was a pleasant employment for him to walk round his orchardjwo'or three'times a day-looking up on his apples—on one of which peregrinations he was overheard talking to himself. “Aim they fine? Aint they beantie* ? Who say* tbev nint ’ They are, I eav 1 , they are !’’ The apple* wete oil gath ered in doe sonaon. and IS prime order, and were snugly put away for the winter. Uncle Josh, grateful for all hia mercies, was not unmindful of hia apples. One evening he remembered his op* pies atfamOy worship, bat was somev/bat at a loss to know hpw to bringlhem into his prayer. Bat it wts cot often that be was in a quandary long; so he proceeded to say “how thankful they all were that the Lord had given them so rnanv apples that season—”j He paused a,moment, for a sudden thought oc curred to him. It was bat for a raomeot, however, and he added— “But last season we hadn't any aIaJL- Wouldn't it bo beUtr kertafter to divide equally, and 'give tu half rat year and half another *" Now, uncle Josh said thin id tbs sincerity and simplicity of his ■ heart. He thoaghl so, and was not conscious-of any wrong in thinking ii; and though'’it sounds strangely in oar ears, to those who knew him it seemed nothing extra* ordinary. .' ! ' T had on onq or'casion preached a sermon, and, the same day,.called on • Uncle Josh. My text bad been the words, “He will not break the bruis ed reed, he[ will not quench the smoking flax,-” and the subject of the discurse was “the gentleness of Jesus.” 1 Uncle Josh was much affected. 1 reached theparlor door, and with my hand upon .lha knob, was arrested by the voice of earnest prayer. Tbere'waa nn mistaking the supplicant. It wassoliko Uncle Josh, that had the voice been different, I should certainly have allotted the prav er to him. It was perfectly unique. He .had til* most finished the prayer, when it suddenly occur red to him that be had sald'nolhing about the ser mon. He seemed distressed at this; and giving expression to something that distantly approached j a groan, he commenced praying for the blessing of I Heaven upon the sermon, and strove to introduce i the text. “Thou, wilt not quench the broken flax; Tboa wilt dot break the smoking—no, no; that's wrong—l nay Thou wilt not&rrsZ: tbo broken flax that’* not right! Thou wilt not break the b raised reed; Thou wilt not quench the smoking flax Thftta’a ill I've got it now!” and ho continued in n similar strain jo the close of his brsyer, which he finished off" by nraviog that they might “sfl be de* livered from siupSatsu, and the devil!” . I have intimated that'Uncle Josh did seme tbioga of rather doubtful propriety.’thongh no one questioned hi* good intentions. He was sent for on one occasion to see a young friend of his who was suffering under a severe attack of ague and fever. He found him in bed, shaking v/ith the fever. j “Torn, what are you shaking there for?” “I ea*n-ni fiety-'p it,” chattered Tom. A sudden thought crossed Uncle JoshVmlnd.— He pulled ouj hid watch, and exclaimed. “What are in bed lor at thia time or day?” “You tolldmeju> U i e down. ‘Get up, Isay. Getup, and dress yourself this minute.” j Tern,'however! who was very sick, refused. "Bring me my horsewhip,” called Umile Josh to one oftbe negroboys. “Bring me my h orsewhip. If you don’t get up right strait and drea a yourself; I’ll flog you!” - TomjumpedfrorahU bed quick as thought, and was dressed a little sooner than ha had' ever been before, and Uncle Josh stood over hint with hi? whip. "Now run for; it! ni give vou just ibe length ofthia room—and if I catch you, ni flog till you can't stand. Run, I Bay!” And run Tom did. He dashed down stairs and mto the lot adjoining, scared half trot of his unsea, and Uncle Josh after him. cracking his whip.— Away they went.around the lot, round and round, until poorTcm unk down from pure e xbauition.’ Uncle Josh picted. him up as gently as if he had been Mi own son; and carrying him into tbo honsc laid him down in bed, and covered him with blan k«li and comfortables. A profese p ersuiratiod broke out all over Tom, and he soon Aank into a. genie sleep,’ from which he awaked neve-r to know ■gam what the ague ia. Some one told Unde Josh of hirrocovery. knew htfd, get .weD," was his quiet reply; there s nothing like the horsewhip for tho ague> * He was returning one afternoon front n visit to" a distant patient, and as be trotted gently along side the garden of an aged female, whom every % toTe «’ t , Qd J* rh ° m « ve nr body knew as th«i t Widow Brookes”—her more common at.pcfcatiotf beiog ‘*Consm.Nancy”—he saw her very busy fixing somq flowers in their places. He gntded his horse so'gehtly up to the fence, that oho did no t know of his being near. Uncle Josh sat witching her proceedings for some time, apparently with much Interest in her work, but wuhoo.t saying a word. Cousin Nancy fixed the last flower, and then, standing up paihed back her sun bonnet upon her heid;and putting her arms a k-jnbo, sud denly caught sight ot Uncle Josh. “Ha! ha.’ ha!” exclaimed be; “didn't know I was here, did ’Pon my word, you’re first rate In gardening.

Andey had prepared a I right nice supper, but Cousio Nancy’s thoughts i were upon her to-marrow’s dinner, when she ex pected to feast off her “greena”—a dish which she fnocied a k ; ng might envy. Aa soon as her sup per waa over,ihe went into her corn patch, and eounted'the “gutters," to see how many meals *be could mahVoff.of them. This grave question .being settled, she look up her knitting, though her thoughts were on the morrow's “nice dinner.”— Now, to eat bacon Cousin Nan qy looked upona* n specie* of heresy.' She had never done to, and it would have been next to impossible for her to do it now; and so long had "he been without her favorite dish, that abo dwelt in imagination ou her morrow’s dinner, as though it would be the grandest event in her life. The j morrow came, and good as Andey wa* nt cooking all manner of dishes, Ccuum Nancy felt that in a matter of so much delicacy, it was due to' herself to give the bacon nnd greeni her persons! super* . intendoacc. So, examining the corn-suckers with extreme care, she put them into a pot of water along with a pjeco of nice fsl bacoa, and her mouth watered at the prospect which her imaginations . opened out before her. She r -took up her knitting, and seated herself before the fire, watching the pot »* it boiled, chatting a little witu Andjy, and ev* ery now and then peering intc/the pot, to see if all was right : Tbo pot had been on nearly four hour*. With exemplary patience had ahe watch ed the bacon boil almost to “death;" but it seemed to her, as if the more she boiled the corn-suckers, the more the'ylnever would get soft. She Bad the bacon on one;dish, nnd the rockers on another. and sal down to. dinner.' The first mouthful of the auckerg. was enough. No mortal had ever eaten surh a dish. Poor Cousin Nan cy! It waatad to havcall her hopes dashed: thus to Bulsoitwa*. Thecom-suckerswsre not fit to Cat, sad her.dmacr'was spoiled.' “Maybe Aiint Betty has some way of cookin’ ’em soft,” suggested Aqdoy. “Maybo she has,” replied Cousin Nancy, “I’ll go to town thig afternoon and ask her.” To town the went.' She found Aunt Betty alone in her sitting room, and she drew a chair* alongside ofher. “Take off your boonel and shawl.now, and stop and take an early tea. You are very warm and tired. Qco ortb? bot* shall take you out in the ■ carriage this evening "No! no! I can't, I’ve got something to ask you.” And here she lowered her tone to aa audible whisper,- “Aunt Betty, how do you boil corn-suck er* so as to make ’em! toft?"’ “Boil corn-suckers?/ Why, child, you’re out of your sense?' ' Why, I never heard tell of *uch n thing." . I ■ ‘Did ever T exclaimjfd Cousin Nancy, with the mart woe-begone expression of cqunlenauce, .why now, Ido declare if it don't bent all! Why Doctor Gray tofd me that ymj boiled era every day for greens; and I boiled florae ti-dsy, and t boded, nnd I boiled, and they never wonld come soft. Aid ro 1 came in to tl*c if you wouldn't tell me how you boiled ’em, and now it turns out that you never had any at all?' . Aunt Betty puzzled herself to contrive what Doctor Gray could hare meant; and was just try ing to make some explanation, when In came Un cle Josh himeell. 'DoctorGrey,’raid Aunt Betty, ‘what on earth did yoq tell Cousin Nancy that wo boil corn stick'- ‘And here, I went, and boded, and boiled, dad boiled the com Buckets till the bacon all boiled to pieces, and tho com suckers were as hard as bal lets;’ chimed in Cousin Nancy, with the most do* lorous accent). ‘You didn’t do it right. There's a right way and a wtobe way. Aunt Betty, you tell her how ’yon «b it You know nil about it.’ ‘ Why, Doctor Gray ’ I never beard o( such a thiag.

It doe to Unde Jcsb and Aunt Betty to aay that they made ample amends to Cousin Nancy. Uncle Josh gat together a fine lot ofturnip greens and ordered Jim to have the carriage ready at the doer sLeix o’clock They jwrioaded her to stay to supper, and when she went home »be carried alongwilh her au abundant supply of good thlcgs. .One day, meeting Uncle Josh, in the street, I told him tharf should be at his house that even ing on a pastoral visitation, un i requested him to inform Aunt Betty, in order (but every thing might be in readiness, Accordingly, taking with me a clerical friend, who happened to be in town, I Called at Doctor Gray’s at the appointed hoar. It so happened, however, that Uncle Josh had for gotten all about ray appointment, and of course had said nothing to his family about it. A little knot of members of tbe family bad gathered to gether, and one whose powers of enlehainment were duly appreciated kept the company con vulsed with laughter. Unde Josh—in a happy forgetfulness of my pastoral visitation—was per fectly at home. He.stood upon the door, with his bands down deep in his pockets, and shaking all over with laughter, his little grey eyes twink le hnp r with Inexpressible enjoyment. His pretty f ceice Bcefeed to feel it a real pleasure to 1 entertain . her uncle?and on she wetil, keeping the whole company in a continued roar. There stood Unde Josh, the tears rolling down bis chocks, and he shaking'al! over with laughter. But the moment he sight of us his coun* tenancc fell to its utmost length, nnd he looked like the most wretohed being in the world. He said nothing, but, crossing to the opposite ndc of the room, he stink into n seat at the end of the side hoard, and commenced groaning with great vigor. Louise, hia niece, in ignorance oflbe object of otir visit,was not to belnterrupted ofcoursejn her story; and soon as we were seated resumed the thread where we bud broken it. On nbe went, and we, who came there on a pastoral visit, wondered nt the strangeness of the preparation. Uncle Josh’s groans became the louder and deeper; and (be pretty Louise, grew wtuicr nnd wittier. The sto ries multiplied,and Uncle Josh grew more distress ed. Tho company laughed, and Unde Josh seem ed as if the preservation of all earth depended on his groaning. His deep distress caused Louise to Kop fur n moment, when Aunt Betty, struck with (be sudden change that bad come over him, whis* pered-to her, “What on earth’s the matter with Dr. Gray 1 I wonder if he has'nt tbecholie?” No, Dr. Gray bad not ibe cholic. He wns dis tressed to think that be had lorgotten to tel! Aunt Betty that he had appointed a pastoral visitation at bis house; and now we had come, arid in«'rß« of having Bible and Prayer Book all ready, uerd the whole family prepared, here they were, laugh ing away with all their might; It was this distres- secThira. But finding now a pause in Louise’s atone*, he peeped slyly from belling thq sideboard, and called oat, so t-e to ha heard by us ail. •Mr. Johnston, wait do vou think ot toe doctrine o guinrat'on? ‘Think of wbal, sir?’ “Pratpertitv gentralion, sir. What do yon think of it-?’ The question was pUI to our friend, who an •wered, Bomewbat abruptly. “I know nothing abbut it, sir.” ft waa a hard matter to keep our countenance straight. Aunt Betty look a great many pinches o f snuff, and Louise enjoyed the scene richly. “You don’t?” exclaimed Uncle Josh, io great astonishment, and coming out of bis hiding place, his bands down deep in his pockets; “you’ve studied theology, haven't you?” “Yes, sir, 1 have; bnt 1 never studied that." ‘ Well, then, sir, I tell you what, vou’ve got some things to learn yeU The education of yoong ministers is very deficient, air, very, if thiy don't ptud? that question. Now mind mo, sir”—pnd. Uncle Josh shook his head with great solemnity; “now mind me, sir, 1 tell you that question’s going tu shake ibe church to its centre. It will, sir, 1 tell von it will. If it don’t, then my not Joshua Gray.” !

It was not, as I apprehended, ihe j doctrine of “prospective generation," but that ofjngmsiptjustifcatton. *'That’s it!

Aunt., Betty Was smit ten with a sickness, that was unto death. It was my privilege to minister to her in her dying mo menta. I heard her dear and beautiful testimony to the goodness of her saviour, and I closed her eyes in the sore and hope of ber glorious resurrection lrotn the dead. Poor Uncle Josh nev ever recovered from this stroke. Hit life and an imation all left him. Hd was humbly submissive; bnt, to Aunt Betty he |'owed, under God, all hia hopes of heaven; and now she was taken away. His health failed him daily. He paWed much of his time in prayer, and in reading the Bible; and one day, while sitting ia|hia arm chair before the fire, with his Bible on hifi knee, bo paushd, raised his bead, and said, J f * I see her! She’s witp Jesus! • I’ll co to het ! n His family gathered arpund him, bnt be was,al ready gone to meet Aun| Betty in heaven. Let* froaitJsllfornls. j .
