$ It's amelancholy strait, that to which the An•
idasaiimic Waders in this State are reduced. Their par
rtistalterly and hopelessly routed and dispersed, and

Wiseins aver seen in these United States. If they
ite4 the power to tear and confuse the counsels
aftheir lately despised allies, the whigs, that would be
sotne eonsolltion fur them; bat they are deprived of
.areatlis taiserable solace. In Lancaster county, the
.triairsbare succeeded in spite of them: and in Alleghe
ay-(tbey had no candidates out of these two counties)
ithe Democrats have beaten both Blue Noses and
,Okip united, and thus demonstrated that they could

.41.05 REPRNUZ CUTTER.—The Government is
building an Iron Revenue Cutter at New York, and
thiGothasnites appear to think that if they succeed
in constructing an iron vessel, they will have perfortnNl
a wooderful undertaking. Have they ever heard that
et Aes little town of Pittsburgh, three iron ships have
been constructed, and that a fourth is now under con
t
The vessel of which they boast is described as being
choker built, length ono hundred and forty feet, depth
101, width of beam 141, of 330 tons measurement, and
to befitted with Ericson's propellers of about 3/ feet
in length. She is now in a very favorable condition for
ethibiti4 the mode of construction, and the strength
tied character of the work. Her ribs are of wrought
irsnr Ali inches by j, placed at a distance from 18 to
*inches apart; the sheet iron which is attached to the
ostaide of the ribs and forms the shell of the vessel is
elan inch thick. the end joints,ef which about flush,
nod are connected by a lap piece passing over the joint
on the inside di inches wideand iths thick; the scants
overlap 2 inches; the rivets arc fths of an inch in 411-
meter, and arc hammered firmly to their places while
in a heated state; there being portable forges for that
purpose. The sheeting is punched and the boles
ceuaterstink with the greater: exactness by a machine
The shell is fastened to the ribs by iron knees firmly
belted to both. The whole arrangement presents the
tpptarance of go eat strength, and is calculated to pro
duce the fullest confidence in the security of this char
meter of vessels.
.Col.. Jouttson to BOSTON.—The Post gives a glow
leg aceoaat of the reception of Col. JOI1N80:1 in the
Litynfßoston, on the 12th inst. 7 He arrived in the
bars from Worcester at Newton, whence he was con
veyed to the terminus at the Western Avenue, in a
private carriage. At that point the military, under the
command of Col .N. A. Thompson, were drawn up to
receive him.
At half-past 3 the Colonel was received on the Av -
issue by a a committee of reception in a barouche, with
four white horses, in which he was driven into Charles
vorstet, in front of the handsome line of military. His
approach was hailed with some cheering front the spec
tators in the vicinity, and after it had suhsided, Edwd.
Omit, Jr., Esq., chairman of the committee_ addressed
the Colonel in a few, but very becoming, words of wet
some.
Col. Johnson rose to reply to his address, and this
nilskeensent was the signal of a dense pressure in the
neighborhood of the carriage, followed by the usual
eetttesien attending a rush, and very few of his remarks
mild be distinctly beard. He, however, said, with
t aechidsapressiveness, that he was, notwithstanding
the UM:kW he had received, surprised at the reception
which hid been prepared for him; and he knew not
rhedter to be Alegre , delighted at the appearance of
Obi' vows, snot tdit meter fellow-citizens vrbo had come
forth's° welcome bias, or that be should have lived to
ierferionce such a *insure. He reiterated his ex
-lieu of gratitude for ,the manifestations of respect
fethis character sad services which he witnessed, and
tensed his seat amid cheers.
• =VW . Boston Artillery then fired a salute from the hill
on tria - common; after which tbe civic and military pro
'session was formed, and matched through the princi
paimoraaissindicated in the papers in the .marring,
Illikiisched the United States Hotel, where apart
meets bad been engaged for the distinguished guest.
I.* the early part of the evening. Col. Johnson. by
invitation of Mr. relby, ateteded the National theatre,
and was very eowlially received by the audience. From
the theatre he proceeded to Fancuil Hall, where a
splendid civic and military levee nod ball worn given
in honor of visit. There were about 500 present,
and among the guems were his excellency the Govern
or, and the Hon. Levi Woodbury.
On the morning of the 13th, the Colonel received
the citizens of Boston generally at Fanned Hall. In
the evening he attended a repeal meeting at the same
place, and delivered an address on the occasion. Al
together, the reception of old Tecurn4elt in IlJston,
was of the m tit flattering d'..scription, and must have
been grateful to the feelings of the old veteran.
Tito Philiuleliina Forum comes down on our
Mr. Craig in the most furious manner. Ilear him:
COtiCitesslONAL DISTRtCT.—The white liver
ed renegade Neville B. Craig has succeeded in sending
the old Federalist William Wilkins to Congress from
Allegheny county. A snore 'despicable piece of treach
ery has never been perpetrated in the State. Whigs of
Allegheny, spurn him and his abetters from your
ruder—let not your glorious cause be sullied by the
presence of these arch apostates, who under the hypo
critical garb of anti-masonry. arc selling our noblest
counties to locofocuism, Out with them! hang all
traitors to the nearest trees as examples for other cra
ven hearted hypocrites!
Perhaps the gentleman will moderate his indigna
tion when informed that the democrats beat the united
vote of the whigs and the "craven hearted hypocrites."
This fact shows that the coons could haVe made no
arrangement that would have defeated Mr. Wilkins,
and we think it very unjust in the Forum to accuse Mr.
Craig of bringing about a result, that no conduct of his
could have averted. It is particularly cruel at therpres
eat time, as, we understand 51r. Craig intends to with
draw from politics, and the whigs say that be has eon_
eluded to open a Singing School in Ohio township, to
prove that he has some "music in him," and that he is
not, as was urged against him in the late contest, only
fit fur "treason, stratagem and spoils."
L. 7 " From the tone of do:n3 of the federal organs
one would suppose that they really believed that they
havecarried the districts over which they rejoice, by
their own party strength. Now any person who has
the slightest knowledge of these districts. knows that
the dsmeeratic party is just as strong in them as it ever
has been, and that the success of the Whigs is entirely
owing to disunisa in the dernacratic ranks, or to lo
cal causes unconnected with politics.
In the first district two demacratic candilltes were
run,and of course t!se Whig, candidate was elected.—
But_if only one Democrat had been voted for, the re
turnsshow that he would have been elected by a large
majority.
In the Huntingdon district a large purtion of the
democratic party came out openly against the candi
date, and after the election. the Holiday&rerg Standard,
democratic paper, boasted it had contributed to the
election of the federal candidate.
En York and Nartlrinahcriand local cattier wci c
brought to bear which deprived the Congressional
candidate of the large thrri.nratie tntjorities of those
counties, while the balance of the ticket received tLe
usual democratic vote.
This same cau;c defeated our Congressmen in the
Indiana and Fayette dis ricts, where the aggregate
democratic Tote for other officers show that the party
is as strong as ever it was.
There arafive districts lost by Intl rnanagement in
'llcl - tarty, where our friends have large majorities, and
wlsere-they will, in another year, nest certainly elect
their candidates.
Onto Et.tcriox.—Tke re:altin Olio is not aa bad
ta4 we expected. We glean ilia • following returns from
•t!te Statesman of Saturflay, and we believe they may be
relied an as being correct.

'FROM SOUTH AMERICA
By thearparnba at Boston, from Valparaiso. July
Sth, later dates have been received from Chili, Bolivia
and Peru. The Boston Advertiser gives the following
summary of the news from files one month later.
We notice theintroductioa into the Chilian Legisla
ture of some plans of abelishing•the existing monopo
lies of trade; while the revenue shall be preserved by
other means. On these no action has been taken.—
The proposal, however, was received very• enthasia.sti
cally in Valparaiso.
We notice the formation of a society at Valparaiso,
for the promotion of European emigration to that place.
The National Convention of Bolivia had just ad
journed at the latest dates, the Ist of June. The con
stitution which it framed and proclaimed, is spoken by
El Resturador as intended particularly to strengthen
the executive against rebellion or foreign invasaion.—
The convention appointed a permanent cAmittee to
sit in its recess.
The South of Peru was not yet quiet. A decree of
Vivanco's dated at Lima, provides for the establish
ment of a Court In that city expressly for the trial of po
litical offences.
Those papers contain some definite intelligence of
the present government of Paraguay than we have had
for many months. These advices are very old,howev
er. The Supreme Government of Paraguay called
an extra session of Congress, which convened on the
24th of November, last year, principally to consider re
quests of Great Britain, Rio Grande and Uruguay, to
form treaties for the regulations of commerce. They
recommended Congress accordingly, after two days'
session adjourned, summoning up their proceedings in
a single act, the several articles of which appear in de
tail of all the various acts of the "Supreme Govern
ment,"
and give it all the powers or directions for the
future, for which it asked. The only clause of interest 1
to our readers, are the 20th, confirming the objections
of the government to form treaties on foreign powers
except in urgent or long established cases; and the
25th absolutely prohibits the government to grant free
dom of religious worship to others than Catholics.—
The other details of the message to the Government
and the act of Congress, echoing it, strew a careful at
tention to the condition lithe state, and the quiet and
prosperous state of affairs.
We observe that the esilecl Gen. Santa Cruz has re
tired from Ecuador, where he has till recently resided,
to New Grenada, that his presence might not injure the
t reaty in contemplation between Bolivia and Ecuador.

Of the German Democratic Central Committee of
Allegheay county, to the Democratic party ofsaid
County:
Fellow Citizens: The undersigned.tho German Dem
ocratic Central Committee of Allegheny county, con
sider it their duty to address you at the close of our
political canvass, on a question which is of vital impor
tance to the citizens of our common country. Ono of
the candidates elected -is John Anderegg, a German
, by birth, but long since an American'hy adoption and
:in feelings. By his election we ore happy to perceive
the defeat of the native principle—a principle entirely
adverse to the spirit of am Consritution. Nature itself,
and the polity of the Heroes of the American Revolu
tion, have pointed to the shores of this great country
las an asylum Of those who search for liberty, and an im
provement ef their condition. A free people, like the
American, cannot wish that the emigrants who tread
.the American soil should be slaves, but freemen; the
good sense of the population of this country cannot de
mand from their adopted brethren to bear all the bur
, dens which an kinerican citizen is subjected to, without
allowing them, as an equivalent, the enjoyment of the
rights and franchises of a free citizen. The Constitu
tion, therefore, allows all foreigners to partake of these
privileges after a residence of five years. As soon as
the certificates of the courts proclaim us citizens, all
political distinction ceases, and we are equal to the
native bom—we feel for the same country, we bear
the same burdens, and we are also entitled to the same
Nights. Our name is Americans, and no distinction
should be made; but accidentally our language is dif
ferent. -That distinction, however, is a natural one,
and it cannot reasonably be expected that persons who
are far advanced in life, and who generally do not be
long to the literary but to the working classes, should
acquire such a perfection in the language of their adopt
ed country as to speak it either fluently or correctly.
and consequently they are compelled to exchange their
thoughts in their mother language, and to educate their
children in the language of their adopted country. In
consequence of this difference in our language, the na
-1 tive born citizens, when they speak of us as a body,
call us Germans—and we have not objected to chat
distinction, although our feelings are American; we
politically strive for the happiness of our adopted coun
try, and for the safety and advancement of the princi
ples of Liberty. And that we comprehend the value
of that liberty is sufficiently proved by our desire to
live under the influence or American institutions, after
having practically experienced the tyranny, despotism
and high-handed injustice exercised in Europe. For
this very reason, we take an active part in politics, and
we are watchful to preserve the liberties of this coun
try, for which so many Europeans have fought and bled
side by side with your ancestors. The principles of a
Jefferson correspond with our own political views, and
the greatest number of us belong to the democratic par
ty. With that party we have stood in good and bad
times, we were victorious with that party when its glo
ry was in the zenith, and we were found on the battle
field of 1840, when we were drowned in hard cider and
suffocated by coon skins.
Our political adversaries have reproached us mor
than once, with being the mere tools of the leaders of
our party, the drawers of teeter and the carriers of wood,
and to have no voice in the councils of our party. To
contradict such a slander; to prove to those of ourcoun
trynatm who were inclined to give credit to such an as
sertion, the false foundation of such accusation, we
thought proper to select one of our friends, now an A
merican, as a candidate for the Legislature. In doing
se we have imitated the example of all ofyou, who have
recommended year particular friends to the suffrage
of their fellow-citizens, and we never claimed the nom
ination ofJohn Anderegg as n right,- because we were
Germans heretofore. Such arrogance would not only
be censurable but impolitic, for we would acknowledge
by our tam reasoning the exclusive right which the na
tive party claim—we would separate ourselves from
you when we only wished to act in Haien. The Dem
ocratic Convention looked at the suggestion of thou
sands of our fellow-citizens, who converse in the Ger
man language, in the proper light, and they selected a
gentleman, an American citizen, who bad become a cit
izen by adoption. The people .of Allegheny county
have sustained the decision of that Convention; they
have elected Major Anderegg by a majority of sixteen
hundred and forty fear votes over his Antimasonic
opponent, Mr. Cassat, who received from that party
the greatest number of votes fur the Legislature. For
such an unbiassed action we now teAder yen, Natives,
Irish, French, :tad whoever yno may be, our deep felt
thanks.
In rental to our Gentian friends, we must say that
they have anted ier'ylv. The reports of our Committee
of Vigilance show, that in both cities not more than
fifty-eight Germans have voted againstiohn Anderegg.
According to that report he receivel in both cities and
'their environs, the country not included, more than
1150 German Whig votes, which alone would have be-'
creased his present majority of 16 14 to 1873. ha•l net;
229 of our English friends, who voted for Mr. Alex.
Brackenridgo, ana who, perhaps, miitinderstood the
question, withheld their votes from Mr. Anderegg.—
By this calculation, we take it for granted that the 450
above mentioned German votes were likewise given to
the tohole democratic ticket. If such was not the
case, the Major's majority would be considerably lar
ger than even 1873,—as 679 of our democratic friends
must, attonling to such sapposition, heeee dropped him,
whose votes %rota have increased his majority to two
thousand three hundred and thirteen, and to still more
if we allow him some g,ain of German votes inthe oth
er districts of the county. The strength of the German
democratic vote, according to the above calculation,
and compared with last year's returns, must have this
year amounted to more than Fifteen hundred!
Considering the votes polled we feel inclined to ask
for the reasons of the astonishitig, increase of the dem
ocratic vote. It is the result of the goad sense of the
people, and—we may safely say so—of the gratitude
of the Germans ' who did not only vote for their partic
ular friend, but for the whole democratic ticket. They
formerly partly voted with the opposition. but seeing the
erroneousness of their political creed, they were anx
ious to join our party. From such a step many of
them were, however, prevented, by a certain fear that
such a change of principle might not be considered in
the proper light by their fellow-citizens. The Ger
mans love firmness, real despise a change of political
opinion without a proper reason, and they were fear
ful that a change of politics might be misconstrued.—
But when the democratic party proved in such a noble
manner the spirit and truth of their asserted principles,
they could no longer resist, and joined our ranks. The
action of the Convention was therefore not only just
pro prima, but also politic in erentn. The democra
cy of Allegheny county in future may rely on our friends
who are yearly increasing, and Allegheny county will
remain a fortress, redeemed from the power of Whig
ism and Antimasonrv.
We now hope to be clearlf understood, and trust we
have repelled the insinuations which have been made
either in private conversation or in certain prints, and
we again express our warmest thanks to all our fellow
citizens, and pledge ourselves always to stand to the
glorious principles of the Democratic party.
In conclusion, we are bound to mention the noble
conduct of Mr. Rody Patterson, and to assure him
that his high minded denial of private interest will be
duly appreciated by a thankful and honest people.

THE CHEROKEE INDIAN S.-MURDERS
The Osages, it hi said, have demanded young Cho
teau, a half-breeed Osage, charged with murder. The
Cherokee authorities still retain possession of hint,
and will doubtless try him. Should he be tried and
convicted, there may grow up difficulties between the
Cherokees end Qsages. It is not to be forgotten that
these nations have once waged bloody wars. John
Ross, we understand, keeps a daily body guard of from
one to two hundred armed Cherokees about him.—
' Jessy Bushybeedkeeps a guard of from sixty to eighty
men about his person. On the night of the 15th alt.
a Mr. Vohr, a licensed trader, and his family, and a
traveller, were murdered, and the house robbed of mon
ey and goods. The houses were burned and the bo
dies in them. A large number of Cherokees of both par
ties were, at last accounts, in search of the murderers.
This circumstance has caused, as well it may, the
greatest excitement in the nation. A whiteman was
found dead, who had apparently been murdered, at
Price's Prairie, in the nation, some time since. There
seems to be no security for life among this ill-fated
people.
SHOTTHIC WRONG A.NINALL.4:GNY Mr. Tucker—not
"Old Dan," of come-too-late-to-supper notoriety, we
believo—was 'assailed a few days ago in Porkdown,
(Cincinnati,) by a big dog, and snapped his pistol at
him; it would not go off, so be threw it, and hitting
the pavement, it discharged its contents into Mr. T.'s
leg, which will have to be amputated.

TROUBLE ON THE FRONTIER.
The Van Buren, Arkansas, IntelHgenccr states that
on the night of the 15th•ult., Mr. Benjamin Yore, his
wife, and a traveler, citizens of the tinted States, were
murdered at the residence of Mt. Yore, upon the mili
tary road, in the Cherokee Nation, and the house burn
ed to the ground. The same paper contalas the fol
lowing•
A rumor has reached us of a considerable fight that
took place between the Shawnees and Camanches,
high up on the Brazos, in which the Camanches lost
some 30 or 40 slain, and about 200 head of horses.—
This rumor may be true or not; it is not important or
strange, for this predatory warfare has been going on
for many years. And we are not surprised to hear that
a small number of Shawnees can whip any number of
Camanches. The Shawnees and the DelaP.ares are
the greatest warriors on this continent.
A friend writes us that about 180 Usages have set
down under the pickets at Fort Gibson. and demanded
in a peremptory manner, the release of one of their
brethren who is there in arrest.
A report has reached us that an express reached
Fort Smith last Wednesday, informing Gen. Taylor
that more murders were committed in the Cherokee
Nation. And that Gen. T had ordered one of the com
panies now at Fort Smith to reinforce Fort Gibson.
Cita TLEMEN:—/ am story to see by the "Post" of
Monday. that your able and talented correspondent
"Cassius" has brought his communications to a close,
and I do hope they will not fall as a dead letter from the
press, but may be the means of arousing the Democracy
of Pennsylvania and her sister States, to view the com
ing contest for the Presidency in a proper light, and of
awarding to the Keystone state the tribute to which
sheik justly entitled.
Our local elections are now over, and it would ap
pear to be the proper time to commence in real earnest
for our favorite candidate, and not suffer our opponents
to get the vantage ground. Let every county, ward and
district in the State commence vigorously by calling
meetings—forming clubs, and issuing circulars, and
using all honorable means to promote the Democratic
cause. We must not leave our favorite candidate to
push hisown way to the Presidential chair, as the ven
erable judge McLean said in a late communication to a
friend on this subject. "The office of President, in my
opinion, has been lowered, and also the character of
the country, at home and abroad, by the means used
to secure that office. High as the 'Presidency is, it
may be reached at too great a price! It sinks below
the ambition of an honorable mind, when it is attaina- '
ble only by a sacrifice of the Inftiestpatriotism." These
very just remarks are altogether applicable in the case
of our own BUCHANAN; we know what be has done,
we know what his capabilities enable him to do, and
we also know he is too honorable to take any steps-to
secure the Presidency to himself which would hele
neatli the dignity, of any of the great men who have (in
the present days of the Republic) occupied the highest
office in the gift of the people. Let us come forward
then to action on an elevated scale, let us endeavor to
reach and rouse the moral tone of all our sister States;
and instead of administering tothe prostituted appetites
of political demapnies, rest our claims on a virtuous
and enlightened public opinion.
Let us show to the world that our aim is thr public
good. The character of our candidate is far above
suspicion. His views on all the great measures of our
government are well known. Ho hits never been
caged and kept by a few political intriguers from a full
and free interconrse with the people, and an open and
manly avowal of his sentiments. But we cannot, we
melt not expect him to de mend from the ektvated
ground on which he stands, to take the stump and tra
verse the country with all the pomp and pageantry of .
1840. lam certain he Will never condestena To net
below the dignity of an honorable A.rtritlitan States
man. If we wish him fur our next President, let us
take the advice of" Cassius" and organize for the contest
in every county, ward and district, anti let us chew the
whole union that we have a candidate worthy of the
support of every true arid genuine Democrat, and the
victory is certain. .T. M. F.

be had in any other establishment in this city. He
would request the public to cult and examine his splen
did assortment of all the articles of dress, and from
the excellence of the material, the style of workman
ship and the very low price at which all his articles are
sold, he feels confident that every one will find it to
their advantage to purchase at the "Three Big Doors."
As none but the best cutters and workmen are em
ployed, orders to make clothing will be attended to in a
manner not surpassed by any other establishment in
the city.
He would again return his thanks to his friends and
the public for the unprecedented patronage bestowed
upon his establishment, and believing that they have
found it to their advantage to deal with him, he would
repeat hie invitation to all those who wish to purchase
Clothing of every description at the lowest pr ice, to call
at No. 151, Liberty st. JOHN M'CLOSKEY.
