• GENTLEMEN:- --1 am nut surmised at
* tbOndiinant comments of the press on the
neglect to pay - honor to the toast of the
President, at the recent dinner given to
Lord Ashburton.
As one of the Committee of Arrange.
ments, and also one of the company on
that occasion, I feel it to he due to my
self to disavow the imputation of having
been a willing participant in this slight of
the Chief Magistrate.
I was both shocked and grieved at the
occurrence, and so'expressed myself at the
moment. It did not occur tome, however,
that I was a fit person to . propose a reme
dy. I therefore simply expressed to those
near me my deep - mortification at the
event.
1 can say, in all fraril(ness, that I should
'bavejoined with pleasure in paying due
"honor to the. toast of the President, as a
public functionary, and also fr.nn the res
pect I bear to the incumbent of the Presi
dential chair.

been obliged to leave the city the day pre-

I acceded to the wish of one or two
friends, who desired me to serve on the

'thought peace between England and this
country desirable for the progress of the

'fasted a conciliatory disposition; but I can
nernow regret that 1 was absent from a

THE LEGISLATURE of N. York, as wi
be seen by our report, closed its Ilabors
-end adjoin ned yesterday noon. No busi
, - nese of public interest has been transacted
-beyond the Apportionment of the Con
gressional districts; which has been effected
ktd a bill which appears to give much more
ganeril-satisfaction than we, had expected
s any bill That could pass would receive.—
Tile fact speaks well for our State Legis
lature,and offers to the Legislators of otlar
states— Ohio included—an example to
which we piont'with great pleasure.
According to the Vote given for Van
Buren and Harrison, at the last Presiden
tial election, twenty of the districts under
the new apportionment have whig majori
ties. The majority in the Legislature,
'however, doubtless regarded that vote as a
every indifferent criterion by which to jadge
of future results.—N. Y. Sun.

CET As the Gdzettee makes a parade of Mr.-
Craig's doings for the Cross-ent Canal,wo tniy .
as well mention, 14 the way, that ctir ctindidaite
Alex.Brackenridge has frequently been conspictfoirs
in similar services , He has been a member' 'pf
null - lemur public cohventions, without any selfish
interest, or remuneration: In 1825 he attendeo
the great Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Convention
which met in the Hall of Rept esentatives at Wash-,
ington City, and although then comparatively but
a young man, he distinguished himself, in the prt
sence of Henry Clay, Charles F. Mercer, and of •
er talented men of that b3dy. Subsequently, lie
represented this County with Wm. 'Wilkins, Thos
Bakewell and others, for colleagues, in the great
Tariff Convention of delegates from the Wcste.6
States, which assembled in New York in October
1831, and took an active business part in their
proceedings, t The , proceedings of this convention
also testify4o Alex. Brackenridge's principles aFtd
practice as a sound tariff man, and devoted to the
interests of his native State. We do not'see that
Mr. Craig was there.
Again, Alex. Brackenridge within a few years
past was owl of the Vice Presidents of an imper
tent convention from parts of Pennsylvania, Ma
ryland, Ohio &Virginia, which met to promote the
Chesapeake and Ohio Rail road to PittsborghH
He was also a member of a convention which met
at Pittsburgh in January 1838, to promote an ear
ly co mpletion of a continumis line of Rail read
from Pittsburgh to Cleveland. In these, and Ma
ny ocher bodies of a like description, at various
periods, Alex. Brackenridge has participated at
cart ,U 3 periods, without any other motive, as, far
as we can perceive, than the public good. But
we believe these are too well known to the people
of Allegheny County to require a minute enumer
atior; neither should we have taken the trouhlh to
recall the foregoing circumstances, had we not
perceived in the Gazette's late flings at Mr. Brick•
earidge, an attempt to raise Mr Craig's reputation,
not upon its own merits, merely, but by depreci
ating that of his competitors.
A London paper advertises fur sale the skeleton
of Jonathan Wild, price £63. Wild Is one of the
leading characters in the novel of Jack Sheppard,
and according to the authentic history of the
times in which he I,ved,the infamous light in Which
he is represented by the novelist, does no injus
tice to his true character.
. .
V. at strikes us as singular in this advertisement
's the evi fence it gives of the disgusting tastes of
the people who so fr quently sneer at the "uncul
tivated manners" and "savage" propensities of
the Americans. It will also awaken the reflec
tion that while £6O are given for the dry!bons
of one of the vilest wretches that ever adorned
a gibbet, there are hundreds of the honest poor
dying daily for want of the necessaries of life, and
their heart rending sufferings regarded with indif
ference by the pauper lordlings who consider their
money well spent when they give 60 pounds for
the skeleton ofa thief whose crimes fill one of the
blackest pages of the Newgate cal •near. Such is
the refinement of England!
The. constituents of this fomenter of nAschief ,

Although Adams aid all he could to defeat the
Tariff Bill on its final passage, he will, no doubt,
be toasted and "talked" as the friend of tile coun

has given to the country a permaneniuf iff law,
unconnected with other matters that irighl endan
ger its conti.mance, will be denounced asst traitor
to the intereas of the people and an uSurper of
powers not given to his station by the Constitu
tion. The ways of federalism are indeed curious
and inexpliC4ble.

KrILLINOIS WOOL.—Large quantities of
wool have been sent to market from Illinois during
the past season. An Illinois man says that that
state possesses natural advantages for the growth
of wool not excelled by any other state in the u
nion; her immense prairies are capable of feeding
inumcrable flocks Et comparatively no cost. •
There is no doubt but the facilities of Illinois for
feeding sheep are unsurpassed, but we think her
flat marshy lands are unfavorable to the rear . ng
of such stock, as it is a faet well known to farmers
that sheep always thrive better end yield finer
fleeces when pastured on high, dry land. In this
thspcct, no state in the union is better adapted for
rearing of sheep than Pennsylvania, and we have
no doubt bet our farmers will find it, under the
new Tariff regulations, to their interest to embark
more extensively in the wool business than they
have done heretofore.

FOR THE !dORNING POST.
Lice of Henry clay, Published under the superin
tendence of Earn Whig Committees of the city of .New
York. J. Winchester, 1842.
The superintending committees have
not seen fir, to favor the people with even
air extract from the greatest speech of the
"MAN OF THE PEOPLE. " That speech was
made in the Senate of the United States
in 1811; and occupies no less than five
pages in the Life of Henry Clay by George
D. Prentice: That speech was an argu
ment, replete with keen and powerful log
ic, against the bill "renewing the charter
of the old bank of the United States; and
was principally confined to the subject of
its unconstitutionalty.
"This vagrzitt power to erect a bank"
he says, "is referred, in 1791, to one part
of the constitution; in 1811, to another!"
and in 1841, the "superintending commit
tee" might have added, "this vagrant pow
er to erect a bank," after having wandered
in vain, for half a century throughout the
whole constitution in quest of some con
genial spot to fasten upon, has been, final
ly, refer red, not to the constitution, not to
the of the people, but to the will of
Henry Clay and his desperate partizans..
"What is a corporation, such as the bill
contemplates' It is a splendid association
qf favored indiViduals"—"that is, the cor
porators have privileges, which no others
possess."
"In the exercise of this gigantic pow
er, we have seen." said Henry Clay in
1911, "an Eaqt India Company_ erected,
which has carrried dismay, desolation and
death, throughout one of the largest
Lions of the habitable world. A company
which is. in itself; a sovereignty—which
has subverted empires, and' set up new dy
nasties—and has not only made war, but
war against its legitimate sovereign! Un
der the influence of this power, we have
seen arise a South Sea Company and al
Mississippi Company, that distracted and
convnlSed all Europe, and menaced a to.
tal Overthrow of allcreditanfl confidence,
and universal bankruptcy."

changed his principles and his policy on
more than one memorable occasion, and
left it to time and the sagacity of his fellow
citizens to develope his motives. Wheth
er his motives were pure or mercenary
whether patriotism or bank favors effected
the change, it is certain that the once dem

Vermont Election.
We received last night slips from the Spirit of
the Age, Windham County Democrat, and Ver
mont Gazette, giving returns of the vote for Go•
vornor from 28 towns, which will be found below.
The democratic vote is larger" than it was last
year; the whig,rvote also exhibits an iacreae; and
the abolition vote has fallen off. This decrease
in the abolitioi vote has evidently added strength
to the whigs. Paine is probebtv elected by a
small majority.
Fifty-nine towns have elected 18 democratic
and 40 whig representatives, and in one town
there is no choice. The democrats have gained

From the Baltimore Sun
Review of the Baltimore Market, for the
week ending Friday, September 9. 1 ,
Beef Cattle—The offerings this week by the
drovers, amounted to f 80; of these about 430
were taken by the city butchers at prices varying
from 3 25 to $1 25 per hundred pounds.; 130
were taken to another market, and twenty' re
mained unsold. Hogs are in less request, and
may be quoted about $5.
Coffee—Moderate sales of Rio at si to 91 cents,
and Laguayra at 9. On Wednesday 340 bags
Rio, partially damaged, sold at auction and fetch
ed 6# 81-8 cents per pound.
Fleur—The course of.this article has been
downward for some weeks, and siace our last re
port, which then quoted Howard street $4 62i, it
has further gradually declined, sales having been
made yesterday at $4 37i, and it is not improb-.
able there may have been transactions at s Jere
thing less. The last receipt price was $4 25
We have heard of no transictious in city mills,
at-less than 54 15, at which it was..offvred at the
close of last week; and which has been the offal...
inz price during the pregei.t. Susquehanna is
unsettled in price.
Grain—Wheat has . come for ward more free
ly, but the quality does not improve, and prices
remain unchanged. So ne good Pennsylvania
reds have sold at 91 to 92 cents..-but Maryland
will not command over 85 to 90 for: the test that
is offering; and inferior 45 to 50. Rye may be
quoted at 45 to 50, with light receipts. Oats in
limited demand at 21 to 22. Corn is steady at
50 cents for wh'te or yellow.
Molasses.—Sales or New Orleans in small lots
at 24 cents.
Provistona.-Thc transactions in barrelling
meats are confined altogether to the retail trade,
for city use and ships' stores. Western Bacon
ranges much as last week, both in demand and
m ices: 5 to 5i cents per lb. for hog round; 6 to 8
for ham; 4i to 5 for shoulders;and 4i to 5 for
middlings. No transactions in Lard _or Butter.
Spirits—There is little or no N. E. Rum in
Market. Whiskey is rather inactive; birds, are
held at 20, and bbla. at 21i to 22 cents.
-
Sugars—Private transactions have been limit.
ed, but they. as weir as public, show en advance
of 4to a cent per Re At auction, 354 hhds• Por
to Rico sold on Wednesday at 540 to $7 20 per
100 pounds.
Tobacco—There bas been a fair business done
in the better qualities of Maryland, at about pre.
sinus rates, probably rather improved, ranging
from '5 50 to $3 per 100 pounds; but the ordinary
or common qualities remain neglected.
N. Y. MARICETS--Sept. 9.
Flout—is down again; sales of Genoessee to
