* Pivaburgissa much, and why, in a solemn

itef tilt, into &serious and deliberate slander, and

,1-2• :.. ..4proprtauon to establish a ittubete armory. A corn.

-as the site. His pretended reason for this bigoted
Stale - Vim* towards our city was, that "it stands at

Now, bte - fst.ii has passed up and down the Ohio

`;! '41 1 111.1-, - - not have been the real cause of Mr. CLAY'S
-simpottitien-txt locating the armory here—let us see if
'eke political history of our city does not furnish some
:pore trait/el or reasonable pretext for Mr. CLAY'S
siKetility to Pittsburgh.
- In 1824, the people of this city gave a tremendous
- 7 ., •
support to Gao JscxsoN, and evinced the wannest en
ahusiasm in hasfavor. In 1825, after the consumme
- aion of the "bargain," the elealliettlf ADAMS, and the
induction of CLAY into the Secretaryship, the damning
'roofs of corruption were so clear to the eyes of the peo
pie that the popular indignation found vent in hanging
-.• _Mr effigy. The rope by which his counter
:- feit presentment was suspended hung for many years
:from a aien polit. in Woud street. We do not by any
mecums justify this outrage, and only cite it to show
Show deeply the people of this city were incensed at the
, bargain, the proofs of which had just been laid before
-theta. It is a remarkable fact that many of those who
were leaders of the Jackson party at the time of this
.hanging, are now leading whigs—they ham forgotten
Abet:enrage MI . Gen JACKSON and forgiven Mr CLAY
-theilnis not been so placable--19 years after the occur
senee Mr-Clay takes his revenge by wantonly slander
• hut our city. This is one reason why he opposed the
•
interests of Pittsburgh.
In 1832, Mr CLAY was the Mile candidate for the
• Presideocy; the aatimasons of the State would not
swallow him, because, like their organ the Gazette, they
linew him to be a "mason," a "slave-holder," a "duel
/ht,
a _ ~'"Vau 'immoral and profane" man, so they nom
zaner tar, formed an electoral ticket for him, and
- . .. 2 `• -stuck to it with so much determination, that the whigs
had to succumb, and the CLAY electors were withdrawn.
In these days Pittsburgh was the very citadel of anti
:n :miscarry, and its little garrison did their full share in
opokiag CLAY off the track. So there is another ma
, son why Mr CLAY has uttered this tout slander of
A - '4itiaburgli.
In 1836, the aotimasons of Pennsylvania, had a
-largo share in excluding Clay from the I'residential
, track, and he was not formally a candidate.
In 1839, these same antimatons of Pittsburgh,took a
. ..4sromin ent part with their brethren throughout the State
bringing out Harrison in nuisance of the Whig Na-
Y `Convention, and in avowing their determination
. in stick to Old-Tippecanoe whether CLAY wet;
nomi
naaed or not. To this more than any other cense, dues
Clay owe his defeat in the Convention of 1839, and
- this is another and perhaps the strongest reason why
Clay hates and slanders Pittsburgh. Ever since his
-aspirations for the Presidency, no matter what party
wag, :nant, CLAY hal been unpopular in I'ittsbnrg,h, l
has received, as above recited, the most inclubi-
ilabbilnoofs that he was obnoxious here. But is that
cy apology for his standing up in the Senate of the
Uni

These are most substantial "signs of the times."
"Tut Stan /MT as.—The Post has a great deal now.
a-days to say about the 'squatters' who conduct the
'Harry of the West.' *lf Mr Phillips, in his inuendo,
wishes to convey the impression that we, like himself,
had to leave our native land, 'o'er the ocean blue,' and
seek an asylum in Pittsburgh, he is greatly mistaken.
We were born and bred in Pittsburgh, and were living
here before Mr Phillips left Irehuid, to 'squat' down
among our citizens."
This is the latest, and, to us, the moat astounding
'foreign intelligence.' We have always been under the
impression that we were rative born, and never disco.
vered our mistake until informed of it by the 'Harry of
the West.' How contemptible do these squirts and
squatters render themselves by falsehoods like the a
bove. If the writer is acquainted with us he must have
known that he was stating a positive falsehood; and if
be is not, his conduct is equallyvile, in making what
he considers a serious charge against a personof whom
he knows nothing.
The conductors of the Harry of the West may con
sider it a grievous crime to have been born in Ireland,
and they no doubt consider tt great presumption on 1
the part of istiopted citizens to interfere in the politics
of this country; but we beg of them not to make us a
native of any other country than our own, without first
asking our leave.
Cll/11fIliti FELLOWS. — The 'squattets' of the 'Harry
of the West' are decidedly cunning. They ask us to
C 3 ITeCtUSIOry 'that E:-Governor RUINER had gone
weir to the Locofooos.' The 'squatters' add, on the
authority of the Carlisle Expositor, that Gov. REINER
has declared that 'he would as soon cut off his right
band as desert his long cherished principles.'
Now, in the first place, we have never seen any state
ment in a Democratic print that 'Governor Itiratu
bad joined the 'Locofocos.' The announcement of a
change in Gov 11's political sentiments. was first made
in the 'Post,' in which it was said that be would not
vote for CLAY, but we did not say that he would vote
for Polk.
In the second place, the Carlisle Expositor has not
dared to assert that Goy. RITSER trill vote for the
'gambler, duellist, and immoral and profane man.'
Gov. RITNER 'lays he will not 'desert his long cherish
ed principles.' Could ho have made a more pointed
promise not to vote for CLAY? To give such a vote he
must abandon his antimasenic and abolition principles,
and these he declares he will never 'desert.'
lteally these 'squatters' aro losing what little 'gump
tion' they have shown heretofore. Neither they nor
their authority, the Carlise Expositor, dare say that Ha.
ner is a CLAY man. Yet they have the coolness to
ask us to say so. Are they not cunning dogs.
D/FILL WEBSTER.-li again the "god like" with
the tOsigs. He is wandering through the country a
busing the democrats and praising Clay: his tory no
tions and traitorous predilections would not let him
rest quiet when there was a chalice that the people
would triumph over the aristocratic schemes of the
"British Whigs."
Thefullowing is an extract from a speech made in
Congress by Daniel Webster during the last War. It
will serve to show bow little in unison are his feelings
and principles with those entertained by thegreat mass
of the people.
"Sir, I" honor the people that SHRINK from a
WARFARE LIKE THIS. I applaud their stn
limeals and feelings. They are such as RELIGION
and HUMANITY DICTATE, and as none but CAN
NIBALS would wish eradicated from the human
heart."
HORRID STORY.-.TWO perscns, father and son,
were arrested 3ri Saturday week, in Marion county,
Mo., charged with the murder of the old man's daugh
ter, in Adair county. The daughter was a widow, and
so afflicted as to he a burden to the family. The fath
er had frequently declared his inteutioa to solicit nisi
from tps county court, for her subsistence, and if he
failed, not to permit her to remain at his house. She,
hoWever, diad suddenly, and was buried. Sometime
after, the body was disintered by the neighbors, and
marks of violence, sufficient to cause death, discovered.
The old man and his s-nr fled, were pursued and over
taken, and carried back to Adair county for examina
tion.
REIKARKABLZ FACT.—The New York Sun reports
it as a very remarkable fact, that on the arrival of the
steamship Caledonia at Boston, on the Ist of June last,
the whole of her cargo was landed, and her manifest
signed, and returned to Liverpool by the steamship
Britania, which left at twelve o'clock on the same
morning. All the goods which passed through Adams
& Co's Boston Package Express Office, were forwar
ded by them to all parts of the South and West. at four
P M same day. They entered, passed rhe customs, de
livered goods trom Liverpool, in New York, in thirteen
days.
pr. Amongst the pretended changes, the coon jour
nals have had a story that J C Haswell , and the Ben
nington Gazette, formerly controlled by him, had re
nounced the democratic cause. In the Globe, Mr Has
well contradicts this, and says, "God forbid that I
should aid in the remotest degree the election of Henry
Clay." The paper carries at its mast-head the flag of
rout and Dett.ss.

A letter from l'aris, under date of July Ist, to
the Boston A tlas, says—
Mr. King was presented to M. Guizot last week,
and will probably be received by the king this. His
health has nut been very good since his arrival, alt ho'
he has been able to receive the visits of the Americans
here, almost all of whom have called to pay their re
spects. The consul gives a party on the fourth to him
and Mr. Ledyard, who was last week invited to par
take of a magnificent dinner at one of the first restau
rants, by the American residents. Mr. Casey, who
was sent out here by one of the Columbus (Ga ) Banks
to endeavor io arrest Coster, who had swindled it out
of a large sum of money, found him in Switzerland;
living like u prince. He admitted that he had the funds,
but defied Mr. Casey to obtain them, or arrest him,
and he was unable to do either. The Swiss govern
meet are anxious to enter into a convention with that'
of the United States for the mutual extradition of males
factors, s'milar to that concluded with France, and it
is to be hoped an arrangement may he effected:" The
treaty with France has recently appeared in the But

"On the night of the 11th inst. the diligence, pro.

jured. A largo hole in the bottom of the interior of
the carriage, (which was vacant) and a strong smell of
sulphur, showed the passage of the electric fluid. M.
Arago, to whom this almost incredible fact has been
attested, says it goes to prove his favorite theory of
fotrdrer ancendantes, according to which the rupture
of the laws of equilibrium between the earth and the
atmosphere may affect such perturbations at the surface,
and even in the bowels of the earth,and cause the fluid
to rise from the earth to reach the cloud, as wall as pro
ceed from the cloud to the earth."

Vromteca is Moirresst...—Tbe" Montreal papers
give us the following picture of life in Montreal:— _
Montreal is fast verging toward a dreadful state of
anarchy and barbarism. In addition to the-brntaleon
duct of pretended Anti-Orangeists, we have repeated
eels of recklessness and disregard of life ott the part
of cabana and calechemen. A few days ago, a woman
was knocked downin the Quebec Suburbs by a cabman,
who then whipped his horses and escaped. A little
girl was run over in Dalhousie Square on Monday.—
A day or two ago Dr. OTteherty was knocked down
and severely hurt by a cabman, and has been danger
ously ill since. And yesterday Capt. Deven, of St.
Ours, a Canadian gentleman of respectability in that
parish, was struck on the breast by a shaft of a cale
cho No 149, belonging to one Milton ttnd driven by a
little bcy, and the wheel passed over his body. He
died in the course of au hour.and a half. The unfortu
nate gentleman was seventy-four years of age.
A Victim of Stott prison cruelty'.—A convict, na
med Whiting, in the Sing Sing State Prison, was, a
few weeks ago, taken and carried to the Lunatic As
ylum, where he soon died of the woundehe bad re:eiv
ed while at the prison. It appears that Whiting be
came deranged while in the prison, and in order to
cure him of his lunacy, h 110214 as repeatedly flogged at
the bullrings and in the yard, until his back, breast and
thighs were completely lacerated. The flogging did
not cure the poor crazy convict, so he was sent to the
asylum and his severe"mediciae" has caused hisdeath.
This is atrocious conduct, if truly reported, and is so
given in the Sing Sing Protector.
Due/ at Grand Galf—Oo Thursday a sudden duel
took place at Grand Gulf between Dr. Mameller, of
Milliken's Bend, and Capt. H. %V. Allen of the former

of his antagonist were ten feet distance, with pistols
loaded with buek-shot.
The parties fought across the river,
and both mceived
about two wounds apiece—not very bad—some rather
delicate. We hope that both parties will be soon,
very soon be well : and then they will both join the
