' Oar friend, James Dunlop, Esq , late or Freirik- lin (platy, ii very much excited at the "present junc trirttAlyiui has, "under the excitement ofbeing denom • Mead?* the editors of the Post. a Squatter," written a letter to the editor of the Gazette, in which he gives a vary intcreiiing genealogical account of himself. Mr. Dunlop has been a little too "quick on the" . "jigger" in this matter. The editors of the Post did mat denominate him a " Squatter," but since he has • applied our remarks to himself, we will now state that he is a Squealer. and one of the most officious of that very large brood that has been furnished Allegheny county, by that prolific parent of squatters,-gold mother Franklin." We have no disposition to dispute Mr. Dunlop's claim of nativeisni, and tee agree u ith him that "if he behaves himself dacently" he is as ' well entitled to citizenship as a naturalized Irishman," but we do oh jest to him retailing second hand the falsehoods of oth er squattets against those who are as good natives, so far as being bomb] the country ran make them, as Mr. D. himself. The " bloom of the potatoe" that is oa our cheek, is as native as the carnal' that grow so .., 101,0tly on his own poll, and the blocips which they imtaatikiadicate that they are a naticlasuperior esculent to: the "'small potatoes" of the whip', or the cas'rols time impart such a redish appearance to the cranium the Gazette heads an article in his paper of yesterday, "Old documents are danger one-things." The editor had a most painful realization of that remark. It was from " old documents" that we learned that he accused Henry Clay of hating " throttled the Tariff;" it was in the same "old docu ments" that we found Deacon W'hite's candidate descaed'inen "gambler, a duellist, and an immoral amid profane man," and it is in "old documents' , wiservi we find it recorded that the whigs of Pittsburgh doused the Comprotttias Act, which Henry Clay wish ed-es premiere inviolate, as the cause of the embar rassment and distress .that oppressed the country.

Statesman is a spy in the democratic camp. The Praia says: "we charged the Statesman with advoca , ties anti-democratic doctrines, and it sets to work and tells us that itonly contended for a revenue tariff, at'- . fording incidental protection. This is certainly the demaocmtic doctrine—but does not our Carlisle neigh . hot recollect the article in which lie embodied Col.

Where, a short time since, there was every appearance of the formation of a bar, threat ening the ruin of our landing, now runs the main cor rect, and an ostensive bar is forming on the opposite side." CP File organ of the fifteen whigs asks the follow ing question : "How long is it, pray, since the eittin of the Post's fatuity arrived in this country from Ireland ?" Tho family'of one of them arrived in this country better than 160 years since, and the family of the oth er nearly fifty years since. From this fact Mr. Dunlop can infer that ''those potatoes" must have been first rate ones to have preserved their "bloom" for so long a period. We have am:rimed candidly the interrogatory of the editor of the Gazette, and we now request him to reply with equal candor to a few questions we will put to him: Did or did not Henry Clay "throttle the Tariff?" Is Clay an "immoral and profane man," a "gamble t" and "duellist," as you have charged him through your paper ? If the "Compromise Act was preserved inviolate," as Mr. Clay implored Congress to do, would it give sufficient protection to American industry ? Does "agriculture need no protection," as Mr. Clay has declared, and are the whip in favor of leaving our farmers to the mercy of free trade, while they pro tect the city manufacturers with a high tariff? These questions are not impertinent intermeddling with the private affiiira of the editor; they are such as may be discussed in the columns of a public journal with propriety, and we hope our cotemporttry will favor us with categorical answers to them. Tet►aneus STEVENDIC of the whig prints pretend to be in reptufteralikint a speech which they say THADDEUS STEVENS recently made in Vermont. Mr. STEVENS, they say, handled POLE and Dat.t...ts very roughly, but they take care to report nothing of what he suid cnncerningCt►r. They try• to create the impression that he will go for CLAY, but they dare eel assert it openly--they dare not announce him as a con vert to whiggery.

PROPOSAL FOR ERECTING A MONUMENT TO HENRY CLAY The Wheeling people have erected a handsome mon ument to Henry Clay on the National fond. about three miles from "the head of mtvigetion," to express their gratitude for his efforts in favor of that road. By placing the monument on that road they have obtain ed a lien upon him and his movements ? ma that he al ways takes that toad traveling East and West, to see that work, and thus he is seduced away from the city of Pittsburgh. where be bas so many devoted sup porters. Many of his friends here have suggested the propriety and policy of the citizens of Pittsburgh erect ing another monument about three miles from here on the rout which the National Reed should have taken to thin city. Such a monument would prove that the Clay men here are more devoted partizans than those in our rival city. We, like them, are ready to abaft don our objections to masonry, duelling, gambling and slaveholding, and go for one guilty of all those offen yes, but, we go farther, we not only kick our moral principles out of doors, but we in our devotion to him spurn at our money principles and kick the hand that rtes tin. Surely such devotion will tempt him to oc ilksionally come by the new monument and enliven our city by his presence. The Mud Club of this city have agreed upon the fol lowing inscription for the monument: "In honor of that pure patriot, sttxßl• CLAY. the pet of ocr rival friend 'the head of navigation,' who endorsed the very whim declaration of John Randolph.

Shamefill impeizonment.—The Newport Rhode Islander gives the particulars of the imprisonment in Cuba of an inhabitant of that town, which adds another to the disgraceful instance of power misused by the Spanish Authorities. Early in the last Spring, William Bisby, a respectable man, whose family resides in New port, was imprisoned in :Matanzas on the evidence of a negro under the lash. This negro stated that Mr B had promised to give him a gun. After he was telieved from the torture he retracted the charge, and declared dust be told a falsehood. Mr Bisby was retained in prison, however, and there he remains. On the 20th of May. Mr Cranston, the Member of Congress from Rhode I shied, wa.s informed at Washing ton, this' the Consul at Havana had received orders from Mr Calhoun to make the proper inquiries on the subject. But on the sth inst., he was still imprisoned, and our Consul at M WAWA* complained of being hampered by the want of instructions from home. Singular and Fortunate Rescue.—lt is stated on the Baltimore Exchange Reading Room Books, that the schooner Het old, arrived at that port from Boston. fell in .vith, on the 19th inst., in let. 38 40, long. 72 .30, a brigantine capsized and nearly full of wate...— The schooner Washington from North Carolina was lying near, and thh crews of the two vessels cut a hole *trough the bow of the brig, and to their great surprise • 7 lid in the forecastle a little boy about 12 years of age, a horn they soon released from his dark and soli tary confinement. When found, he was sitting on the head of a cask, with his feet in the water, but had plenty of provisions near him. As soon as he saw daylight he commenced singing merrily, and was triken on board the schooner Washington. The boy stated he was from Jamaica, hut could not tell how long he had been in confinement, and supposed the rest of the crew and brig had perished. The L aptain of the Her ald did not learn the name of the brig or that of the captain ; but from thofuct that a boat had been picked up at sea on the 14th inst , with the captain and crew of the brig Sir Lionel Smith. from New York for King ston, Jamaica, which vessel was capsized on the 10th inst., and a boy drownedlis was supposed) in the wreck, it is reasonable to infer that this is he same. vessel. If so, the little fellow must have been in his gloomy and leuesotne prison nine days. Such a mi raculous escape is scarcely to be found on record. Gen. Sentmanni.—We find the following touching letter from Gen. Sentmsnat to his wife. in the New Orleans papers of the 17th ult. It eras written but a few moments previous to his being shot in Tobacco, and evinces deep affliction of this rash and unfortunate man for his wife and children : "Rose of my life, have patience; console yourself with religion, and that your husband has ever loved you tenderly, and even in this moment thinks of you alone. Make my children happy, and do it speedily, for this life is abort, and in the other world the Just will be rewarded. Farewell,adored Rose; receive my last sigh, and embrace affectionntely my children.— Rose, farewell ; say a thousand tender things for, roe to mytnothor and all the family. Console yourself, for God's sake, think of your children, and do not. forget your husband, who adores you in his inmost soul: Fate well, farewell! FRANCISCO SENTMANA r. I MASS MEETING . .
