PHILLIPS & SMITH.
Tai Team.—lf the whigs and their candidate are
the true friends of this measure, why do they seek to
use it as capital for themselves, and to make its
permanency depend on questions unconnected with it?
They know the Tariff is as safe in the hands of the
Desnomms as it can be in their own, yet with consum
mate and unblushing hypocrisy, they tell the people
that the Democrats would destroy the Tariff!
We charge upon the Whigs that they are, not the true
friends of the Tariff—we charge upon them that they
have made it a question subordinate first to the Bank
and the Bankrupt Act, and then to the Distribution
scheme, the darling objects of the care of Henry Clay.
• We make these allegations boldly and fearlessly, and
we can prove them to the satisfaction of all sensible
and impartial men.
When they came into power in 1841, and an Extra
Scission was called to remedy the terrible evil which
they alleged had been done by the democratic admin
istration, what was their first movement? Although,
under the compromise Act, the revenue collected was
insufficient to carry on the government, and the friends
of.hoineindustry were imploring early attention to the
*abject, what did the whits do? They bad a majority
of 50 in the lower House of Congress, and as much as
they needed la the Senate.—What, we repeat, did they I I
do on this momentous question? They could have
pealed just such a Tariff act as they pleased—they
'ma hive put a bill through both houses instanter.
Did they prove their paramount regard fur the 1 ariff
by taking it the first in order? Not et all! They re
pealed the Sub• Treasury Act, in order to clear the way
for that first of all questions in the mind of every real
whig—a Bank of the United States; they passed a
Bankrupt Bill for the benefit ofbrok en speculators; they
passed two Bank Bills which were vetoed, but made
smattempt to alter the Compromise, or remodel the
Tariff.
Was this placing the Tariff in the foreground? Was
this proving their high regard for that measure? They
repealed the Sub-Treasury Bill, passed a Bankrupt
act, fought through two Bank bills with desperate en-
Miry, but no word of Me Tariff?
Well, another session came about, and the Tariff
question could be staved off no longer. Do we find
HUM! CLAY at his post battling for the Tariff as its
gnat champion should? Oh No! The wbigs, having
Mode the Bankrupt Law answer the ends of its passage,
and having let all the speculating big fish through its
plashes, it was repealed, and then having nothing else
%particular to do, they reluctantly took up the Tariff.
yr Clay, however, previous to this, having left the
paaper,orders for his friends, made good his retreat ,
and took refuge at his beloved Ashland. Now, though t
iitefriaxls of a Tat itLsomething will be done. 'There's
luck in leisure' and as Congress has taken abundant
time to come to the Tariff, they will du the business up
sight, and 'no mistake.'
So the whips went to work at the Tariff, but no
-Amid according to the orders of the canning sche
mer of Ashland, connected his scheme of Distribution
lorith it, and in so many words tauntingly told the de.
moues& who were honestly supporting the Tariff—
"you may have a Tariff; but you must swallow Diseri-
Emotion along with it,"—thus once more proving that
they held the Tariff to be a subordinate question. At
the former session they had made it secondary to the
repeal of the Sub-treasury—secondary to their Bank
bills--secondary to their Bankrupt acts—and then, to
crown their perfidy, they made it subordinate to that
roost miserable of all party humbugs, the Distribution
Act. They knew that the Distribution was strictly a
party nseantre--they knew the Tariff was not a party
measure—yet they set up Distribution above the Ta
riff. But, thinks to the honesty and, firmness of the
Democrats, the majority were foiled. There were
-some whigi who dared not go home again and tell their
constituents that they had sacrificed the Tariff to Dis
.tramition, and they assisted the Democrats in passing
vthe present Tariff Bill, ag ainst the efforts mid invite

of having acted from good motives, in an attempt to
promote the equality and to establish the just freedom
and interests of my fellow citizens, I can regard with
equanimity this last infliction of the Court; nor would
I, even at the extremity of the low, in view of the
opinions which you entertain, and of the sentiments by
which you are animated, exchange the place of a pris
oner at the bar for a seat by your side upon the bench.
The sentence which you will pronounce, to the ex
tent of the power and influence which this Court con
exert, is a condemnation of the doctrines of '76. and
a reversal of the great principles, which sustain and
govern vitality to our democratic Republic; and which
are regarded by the great body of our fellow citizens,
as a portion of the birth-right of a free people.
From this sentence of the Court I appeal to the
People of our State and of our country. They shall
decide betwen us. I cgmmit myself without distrust,
to their final reward. I have nothing more to say.
HiNRY CLAY'S "MORAL CuArtacrza"--In the
Pittsburgh Gazette of Dec 1 1842, there id an article
aboutCr.z.v, the Presidency, &c. extracted from the
Xenia Free Press, Ohio, and adopted into Mr White's
editorial columns. It contains the following severe
sentence: Are the whigs prepared to endorse this
opinion of their organ:
"The truth, however, is, that in Ohio, Mr CLAY if
inotpoputar.
"Though unable Statesman, be is not a popular man,
and the reason may be found in his general character,
and his connection with certain transactions. TOO
MANY BLACK MARKS STAND OPPOSITE HIS MO
RAL CHARACTER YoR HIM EVER To EXPECT THE
VOTES OF CHRISTIAN, THINKING NIES.
"That Ohio is Whig, I have not a shadow ofdoubt,
"and that her vote may be secured in 1844 for a whit
''candidate for the Presidency I have not a doubt, but
"that candidate must be some other man than Henry
Clay."
GOV. DORA'S SENTENCE.
The following is in substance the reply of Mr Dorr,
to the Court, previous to receiving sentence:
The Court have, through their officer, addressed to
the Defendant the usual question whether he have
anything to say why sentence should not now be pro
' eounced upon him. I have something to say, which
shall be brief and intelligible to the Court, though it
must be necessarily unavailing. IVlthotit seeking to
bring myself in controversy with the Court, I am de
shout; to declare to you the plain truth.
I am bound, in duty to myself, to express to you my
deep and solemn conviction that I have not received,
at your hands, the fair trial by an impartial jury, by
which by law and jusece 4 was entitled.
The trial has been permitted to take place in a coun
ty where, to soy the least, it was doubtful whether the
Defendant could be tried according to the law of the
State; and in a case of doubt like this, he ought to
bevelled the benefits of it, especially as the trial here
Must be in a county to which the Defendant was a
stranger, in the midst of his moat excited political op
ponents.
AU but one of those free Inlders, 108 in number,
who were summoned here for the
turpsp of selecting
a jury to try the defendant, were of pppsite party
in the State, and were deliberately set against the fendant with the feelings of partizan hostility. The
de
single democratic juror was set aside for having ex
pressed an opinion. Of the drawn jurors. 16 in num
ber, two only were members of the democratic party;
land one of 'hear for cause, and the other for alleged
cause, was removed.
I Every one of the jury finally selected to try the de
r fendant was, of course, a . political opent.
And even as so constituted, the j p ury on were not per
emitted to have the whole case presented to their con
sideration. They were not, as. in capital, if not in
' criminal cases, they are entitled to be permitted to
judge of the law and of the fact. The defendant and
his counsel were not permitted to argue to the jury
any matter of law.
The court refused to hear the law argued to them
selves, except on the question whether treason be an
offence against a State or against the United States.
The court refused to permit the defendant to justify
himself by proving the Constitution,the election and the
authority under which he acted; or to permit Lim to
produce the same proofs, in order to repel the charges
of malicious and traitorous motives made in the indict
ment, and zealously urged against him by the counsel
for the State.
- 1 .
By the charge of the Judge, the jury were instruct.
ed that the only question which they had to try was,
whether the defendant intended to do the acts which
be performed; a question of capacity rather than of
motives and intentions.
It is true that the jury were absent more than two
hours; but not for deliberation. One of them was
asked, immediately after :he verdict was delivered.
and the jury was discharged, whether they had been
detained by any disagreement He replied, "we had
nothing to do. The court made every thing plain
for us."
On heating a bill of exceptions to the verdict thus
rendered, the coui promptly overruled all the points
of law.
The court also denied to the defendant an opportu
nity of showing to them that three of the jurors, be
fore they were empannelled, manifested strong feel
ings, and had made use of vindictive and hostile ex
pressions against him personally; after the defendant
had established by his affidavit the fuct that he was not
informed of this hostility of feeling and expression be
fore they were empannelled, and with regard to two
of them, before the verdict was rendered. The defen
dant expected to prove by twelve witnesses, that one
of these jurors had expressed a wish to have the de
fendant put to death, and had declared shortly after
the verdict, to a person inquiring the result, that he
bad convicted the defendant, and that this was what
be intended to do; that another juror had also decla
red that the defendant ought to be executed; and that
the tl.ird had frequently nsls k de the same declaration,
with a wish that he miglir be permitted to do the
work of in executioner, or shout him as he would a
serpent, and rut him to death.
Nor would the court permit the defendant to show
by proofs which he declared on oath to have been un
known to him at the time of the emisannelling of the
jury, that as array of twelve men, summoned on venire
by a deputy sheriff, were, or a considerable part of them,
at least, the same persons who had been selected by an d
Attorney of this court, who assisted the officer in the
service of the summons.
Tnese, and other matters which I will not stop to
enumerate, show that this trial, which has been car
ried through the forms of law, was destitute of the re
ality of justice, and was but a ceremony precedi ng
conviction. That there is any precedent for it, in the
most acrimonious period of the most excited party
times in this country, I am not aware From any exam
ination or recollection of its political history.
In a trial of an alleged political offence, involving
the feelings of the whole community, and growing out
of a condition of affairs which placed the whole peo
ple of the State on one side or the other of an exaspe
rated controversy, the strictest and most sacred impar
tiality should have been observed in the most careful
investigation both of law and fact by the jury, and in all
the decisions and directions of the court. In what case
should they have been more distrustful of the political
bias of their own minds, more careful in all their delib
erations, more earliest in the invocation of a strength
above their own, that they might not only appear to be
just, but do justice in a manner so above all suspicion.
that the defendant and all those with whom he is asso
ciated, might be satisfied that he had this day in court,
and that every requisition of the law had been observed
and fulfilled. In how different a spirit were the pro-
ceedings of this trial conducted! And with what emo
tions must the defendant bevel istened to the declaration
of'one ofyour honors, that 'in the hurry of this trial' they
could not attend to the questions of law, which he so ear
needy pressed upon their-immediate considerationoi s vi
tally impottant to the righteous de terminati on ofhis case!
The tesult of this trial, which your sentence is about
to proclaim, is the perpetual imprisonment of the de
fendant, and his seclusion from the face ofsociety, and
from all communion with his fellow men.
Is it too much to say, that the object of his political
opponents is the gratification of an insatiable spirit of
revenge, rather than the attainment of legal justice ?
They are also bent upon his political destruction,
which results from the sentence of the Court, in the
deprivation of his political and religious rights. They
aim also at a sacral annihilation, by his commitait:
so that tomb of the living, from which, in ordinar y
cases, those wbo emerge are looked upon as marked

By the politeness of Mr James 'house, clerk of
the Yucatan, just from St Louis. we pin the follow.
ing information of the high water in the Missouri,
which we copy from her "Lug Book." The water
had not raised any, late Thursday evening when the
boat left, for two hew" previous. The Yucatan had
90 cabin passengers and 48 deck. She came down
the Missouri river with a perfect rush.

Mouth of Gasconade MlN river 20 miles wide—nine
houses passed down to-day, loaded to the edge of the
roof—chickens, hogs, dogs, eats, &c. on board of
them. Hallo, there goes a large tree with chickens
innumerable in the branches, and one hog in the crotch,
and one yellow cat at the stern. I expect she is cap
tain of that "menagerie." Cattle swimming round
and round all over the Island—here comes another
house. The people on the bluff look like the lauding
of the pilgrims, or a camp meeting--cows, bogies,
tables, chairs, beds, and dogs in abundance. Four
men, six children and three wirnensin top of the house,
water within 2 feet of the roof and rising one inch an
hour. The town of Nashville afloat—a large ware
house just starting for parts unknown. The inhabi-
tants are about 2 miles above on the bluff, in number
about two hundred, besides chickens, negroes, horses,
cattle, hogs, &c., all in the space of about 50 yards.
Rocheport, 12 miles above Nashville, the people are
cutting holes in the roof of the houses taking off all ,
that floated. They had lost about five houses this I
morning. We got there and could not lund—iising
fast. A man's house started for St Louis while we
were wrxxiiug. We had to rig a stage with our gang
way plank to get the wood as it floated by. 12 miles
below Glasgow the rivet is only seven miles wide.—
The hands are in the river up to their middle pitching
the wood on the guard. Glasgow, at 4 o'clock, the
water is up to the roof of ten or fifteen houses on the
first bluff. Saturday river falling—Brunswi at 12

THI-2 EGO—PATCHING EXHIBITION.
The exhibitio n at the Masonic Hall is really curious.
The entire process of hatching eggs by warm water, or
rather by beat thus produced, may be seen in all its
various stages, from the fresh egg to the young chicken.
The machine is an oblong wooden box about 5
fret
long, 31 wide, and 4. high, with eight compartments
to the sight, by means of glazed doors, in which the
eggs are deposited. The chickens make their appear
ance in 21 "lays after the eggs are deposited in the ma
chine. By the side of the box is a table, on which aro
a number of saucers: The first contains a fresh egg,
the second a third day egg, in which the boati n g of the
heart is perceptible, al:hough no blood is visible. Af
ter a few hours more, however, two vesicles contain
ing blood make their appearance --one forming the left
ventricle, and the other the great artery. The auri
cle of the heart is next seen, and in the whole pulsation
is evident In a sixth day egg, the lungs are dim in
guishable, and the full gush of blood front the heart is
distinctly apparent. In a 12th day egg, the orbits of
sight are visible, and in a fifteenth, the infinity of phen-
OMPIIII in this wonderful piece of vital mechanism is
elaborated into more perfect form, and it presents an
appearance closely approaching the natural stare.—
Eggs ore shown to yisiters in all their various stages.
It is stated that perfect eggs from any bird, from the
wren to the eagle, can be elicited into life in the same
way, and persons bringing eggs of canaries, gold finches,
&c. may place them in the machine, marking the eggs
with their initials, upon payment of 25 cents fur each
egg. They will also receive a free admission ticket,
in order to enable them to watch the progress of the
young birds to maturity. Machines are sold by the
proprietors, the large ones at $l2O, the small at $75
each.—Phi! Inquirer.
