tar We have beep absolutely astounded at the cruet
and covert manner in which the Gazette attacks hia
co-laborer of the Astaalcas in bis article about
Col POLK'S ancestors. In the forlorn and bruised con
' dation of the editor of the Gazette, this charge against
Cul Pour, war the-"sosoreigaest thing on earth." He
wanted to abuse Col rota--because be had abused
Cis*, and be wished to do something as a set off—
and here, by the mere force of good luck, he thinks he
has an opportunity to commend himself so the whip,
and to give an insidious and deadly thrust at his co
temporary of the American. On the `list day of Feb
ruary, 1843, the editor of the Gazette published an
eificial avid SOLEMN act declaring certain men, and
among others one Joan BIDDLZ, to be gutty of "High
Treason"—and new with refined cruelty he launches
abase against the democrats on the mere earroved al
legation that they are supporting the "grandson of a
tory." How he cuts - into the flesh of those whip of
this county whose organ the American is. when he pre
tends to taunt the democrats with supporting the
"grandson of a tory"—who does not see that his ar
rows glance harmless from the democratic atray and
strike deep into those who the Gazette has published
as having a nearer connection with treason? Wbo
does not understand that these denunciations of the
Gazette must reach poisons who, by its own showing,
may be supporting the "son of a traitor," before they
can hat tri men, who even if its charges are true, are
only sustaining the "grandson of a tory," and are of
course one remove further from-danger?
We always believed the edit°, of the Gazette was
heartless and mercenary—but this serpent-like assault
on a co-laborer strikes us with unaffected wonder.
1 In noticing our article in relation to the shouts
for “King William and Harry Clay," that were heard in
our streets on Friday evening, the editor of the Ga-
zette says
"As to the fact itself, we know nothing except what
the editor tells us. It may be true, and it mny not be.
We did not hear the cry, and we have met nu individ
ual who did."
'We are sorry to think that in the above paragraph
the editor has deliberately uttered a falsehood, fur we
cannot imagine bow any one could live in the city fur
four days without learning the fact from some person
who heard the shouts. That these shouts were uttered
can be authenticated by hundreds of whigs arid demo
crats, and we believe the editor of the Gasette was
well aware of it. long before he saw it noticed in the
Post. But he was afraid to notice it least some of
these who were guilty might take offence, and rather
than offend than he is willing that the balance of the
community shall regard him as a deliberate falsifier of
facts. It is a singular choice, but all will - ndtult that
it ii; idle emeistent withthe general course of the ed
itor of the - Gazette'sinee be 'became acquainted with
the fifteen whip.
As to the charge that our article was an appeal to
the "feelings, religions and political, engendered in a
foreign country in order to injure MrClay,'we a ill brief
ly say that it is false. In our article we distinctly disa
vowed any such intention; we do so again. We be
lieve that many of the whig party would regard the
prevalence of the principles of the Orange Oath in our
country with as much abhorrence as e e do,ond altho'
it might be pleasing to such as the editor of the Ga
zette to hear shouts for "King William and Henry
Clay" upon our streets, yet we feel certain that a ma
jority of the whig party would strongly condemn all
such attempts to revive in our country the faction bat
tle cries that have caused so much bad feeling and
bloodshed in Ireland. We had no political object in
view when we condemned the proceedings of Friday
evening; our sole intention was to denounce conduct
which if persevered in might lead to fearful scenes of
outrage. The article of the Gazette shows that it views
the matter in a different light, and thinks that those
who uttered the shouts (if any were uttered) merely
permitted their "foreign prejudices to get the batter of
their judgment and discretion." We hope they will
be more discreet the next time and only shout for Cloy
and Frelinghuyseu—it will ba sufficient for them to

LoUISIANA ELICTION.—What was the matter with
our coon cotemporaries yesterday, that they had not
their usual amount of crowing lot the " glorious whig
victory" in Louisiana? The Gazette was solemn and
silent, and the donkey of the American very prudently
kept his poney in the stable. We are under the im
pression that the sagacious organs of whiggery have
discovered by this time that in claiming the result in
Louisiana as a whig victory, they have made 'Judies 'of
themselves,and they have now neither the courage nor
honesty to correct their former misrepresentations
From the returns which ma publish this moaning, the
pnblic will learn that the democrats will have a ma
jority in the Senate, a majority in the House of Rep
resentatives, and a majority in the Convention. This
ii what the returns indicate, but before sufficient wens
received to justify an opinion as to the result, the coons
were making the bills resound with the shouts of vic
tory! They are welcome to many such victories, and
we hope most sincerely that they " may get them."
The Bee, the leading whig organ, admits that the
democrats have a majority of one in the Senate, but
by estimating a number of districts not heard from, it
figures out a majority of two for the whigs in the House.
This - is all they hope for under the most favorable re
sults in the districts to come in; it is the extent of
their estimates, and every body knows how fur short
whig estimates fall of actual results. The people's
thunder is beginning to be heard—the first clap comes
from Louisiana, and loud peals still soon roll [tom
other quarters.
'The "Harry of the West" wants to know how
much we will contribute towards defraying the expense
of printing electioneering documents for the whigs.-.•
Is it possible, that the whip are already beginning to
repudiate their contracts, and compel men to work for
them,and then apply to the democrats for aid, as they
had to do in the case of the Tippecanoe dinner? It must
be so, or why would the editor of the "Harry" ask us
to contribute towards defraying the expenses of his
printing.
But perhaps this is merely a hint of the publisher
to the squatters to pay up. lilt is, we applaud him for
his forethought. Remember the Tippecanoe di naer„M r.
Cook, and don't let them defraud you, as they did
Major Irons, oat of your just dues. Puke the hints at
them, and make them pay up before the election.—
Don't wait until after that event, or it may be hard for
you tofiud many of the "bird■ of passage" that are
now fluttering round the federal rookery.

Irir The N. Y. Tribune is brim full of wrath and
indignation because a democratic speaker has assail
ed CLAY for the part he took in the sacrifice of Ciliey.
The Tribune admits that Cilley had no quarrel with
Mr. Graves—that he repeatedly, both by mouth and
pen, assured Mr. G. that he meant "no disrespect to
him." It admits, too, that CLAY waste the challenge
to Cilloy for Graves—and it pubiisnes that paper. The
Tribune further states that Mr.o LAY-eked tears when
he met Graves after the duel—and that if Mr. CLAY
pronounced the attitir a "aim day's bubble," is was
to "alleviate the mental agony and horror of Graves."
Yet after putting forth ell these things, the N. Y. Tri
bune would make light of this business and insists
that it is wrong to accuse Clay of a culpable connec
tion with this duel! A mat was killed without any
provocation, under circumstances.that gave those who
caused his death "weeks/ korror and agony," yet
it is "mean" and "atrocious" to speak harshly of it!

most atrocious crimes ever.committed in this country.

THE ELECTION.
We believe Mr Libranchn has lost his election. If
he had been in the district a fortnight before the lit
ofJ uly, the result would have been different lie ar
rived at the house of a relative, on the banks of the
river, two or three days before the election, extremely
ill—and was thus disabled from making use of the
short time before him. We trust the interests of the
sugar planters may not suffer by the change of their
representative. )
The steamers Wive brought n* some returns of a fa
vorable character. The whigs have raised the cry of
victory in New Orleans, although after depriving ma
ny hundreds of democrats of the right of suffrage, we
hve succeeded in electing three representatives, which,
allowing no further gain in the country parishes, will
insure a majority in that branch of the general assem
bly. At the last session, the whips had TEN repre
resent atives from the city of New Orleans—attbe next,
they will have only SEVEN! This is the victory.
In the pat ish of West Felicinna, the democrats have
elected Messrs Howell and Marks, both democrats,
to gee House of Representatives.
In the parishes of Ibervillo, East and West Baton
Rouge, all the democratic candidates ate elected, a*
we are informed, and have reason to believe.
We have little doubt that the democrats have elec
ted a olear and decided majority in both houses of the
assembly, AS well as in the convention. Here is anoth
er whig victory ! •
As to the election for President in November, that
is in the hands of Providence and the good
people of the State. We doubt not that it will be a
glorious triumph for the democracy. it is the game
of the whim to brag; hut neiLber brag nor hard cider
will save them this time.
Our readers will bear in mind that- all the strong
bolds of the whiga have been heard from, and the den-
ocrate have gained more than they lost. Nearly all
the returns to be received, setting aside St Mary, St
Martin, and St Landry, will be favorable to the de
mocracy.
- What an astounding whig victory
ANOTHER SECRET AND COLD BLOODED
MURDER AT WEST HOBOKEN.
Discovers of the murdered hod yby a Dog—asd ay

We are compelled again to record the particulars of
another secret and horrible murders' West Hoboken,
near this city, and within about a mile of the suppo-
sed scene of the murder of Mary Rogers. The great
est excitement prevailed at Hoboken on Sunday on
the discovery of this horrid deed, which extended to
this city, as soon es the news reached us.
On arriving there, and searching the packets, it was
discovered the name of the deceased was A G A

mediately sent to this city .by ibe coronet who had the
matter in charge; sod information also given to, the
