are worthy supporters of Mr Clay. He left his place

How deplorable must be the condition of the "uni
versal whig party" when they have matliing better than
the names of the old federalists, who have grown grey
as coons, in supporting the iniquitous schemes of Henry
Clay, to publish as changes from democracy. After
this, we would not be surprised if Deacon White

Watto CHANOES.—The Gazette made %desperate
effort yesterday to get up a set off to the three columns
of changes that we published a few days since, but such
a miserable failure to accomplish a purpose we have
never seen before. We will copy a few cf them, for
the amusement of our readers, and to let-the public at
large see the only kind of changes ( ! ) that the poor
coons can publish.

GLOOMY PROSPECTS —Tbe despondency of the
coons is so great in this city. that they think it neces
sary tercet the !sings whu voted for Harrison in 1840,
to pledge themselves that they will vote for Clay. Al
ter a week's travail they have brought forth a list of
twelve Harrison men who pledge themselves to vote fur
Clay and oppose the Liberty candidate. How would
they like to see a list of tho Harrison men of 1840 who
will vote fur the Liberty candidate and du all in their
power against the man who "throttled the Tariff"—
We should like to hear the Clay men call for the pub•
lication of such a list; its appearance would appal the
boldest of thorn, and show Mr Mecaskey that in bar
tering his Liberty principles—if he ever had any—for
whip promises, he has not improved his chance of be
coming chief magistrate of the city. Ile will realize
that promise with about as much certainty as the pea
ple did the "two dollars a day and roast beef," that
were promised in 1840.
DIGGING FOR GOLD.-Notwithstanding the contempt
with which Fourier associations affect to regard the
efforts of those who by individual enterprise and lodes
try endeavor to accumulate wealth, it appears they are
not altogether free from that love of mammon which
aaems to be inherent in all the children of Adam.
We see it stated that a psrty of Fourierites at Clark
son, near Rochester, have been busily engaged for some
time past in digging a great pit on the bank of Silver
Creek, in search of treasure. A down-easter, named
Chapin, recently made his appearance among that
community, and
.with the aid of a mineral rod and an
old parchment describing the spot, soon succeeded in
getting up a digging party. The parchment, Chapin
represented, come to him from his father, who had It
from en old Franch fur-trader, who ayes taken sick and
died at his house. The story was, that at the spot de
signated, a party of ship wrecked fur-traderii in 1799
buried there, because they were unable to carry it,
$7,000 in gold end $l,OOO in silver. Chapin disap
peared *suddenly in the night, after he thought he had
staid long enough; and his associates, upon repairing
to the pit in the morning us resume their labors, found
a hole in the ground which seemed to have contained
a vessel, and atound it lay the fragments of an earthen
jar. There was also a flat stone, which appeared to
have been broken in two by a bar of iron or pick-axe.
Upon the sand were various print, of Mexican dollars.
The conclusion at once was that Chapin bad been there
in the night, and seizing all the treasure himself; in,
stead of sharing it with his associates as per agree
ment, had fled with the whole of it. But upon a closer
eaamination, they discovered that the earthen pot had
: been made at en establishment in Troy which has not
been in existence many years. The sand surrounding
the hole was locate, instead of being compact, as it
would have been if undisturbed for forty-five years.
Mr. BOTTs' ToAST.—In 1827, Mr. Butte gave the
following toast at a public celebration. It alludes to
the en:Edition and bargain and sale between Adams
and Clay, which placed the former in the Preeidential
Chair, and made a Secretary of State of the latter :

Gies r:—The pedersigned have been Appointed a
committee to request that you will visit our township
and address a meeting of our friends to-morrow even-'
ing in eurvillage. We would respectfially suggest that
you confine your efforts to the ex pia nation of the reasons
why Mr ADAMS and some others of our leading men
voted against the Tariff' Bill of 1842. Same of. our
people are beginning to think that they cast their votes
against that measure because they wished to defeat it.
We trust you are able to establish the falsehood of
this very sinipziar notion, and to slu,sv that the vote of
Mr ADAMS and our other friends was the true way t 9
protect home industry. It is also said by our enemies
that Mr Ct. A y has asserted that "agricUlture needs no
protection." We hope you will be prepared to explain
this -to the satisfaction of our fannens
We would take it as a favor if you would keep this
invitation a secret; we have a plan to entrap Om loco'

a sportsmut-like manner. Please answer thittind let

To this fimtering invitation Messrs D and B return
ed the following reply. But, very unfortunately, from
their ignorance of our localities, they had an idea that
Tarestam, in East Deer township, was the place
meant by "our village." Thertßight, it is true, have
asked some old citizen that could bare mid them the
facts of the case, but tle . itlitioction to keep,the matter

it, somebody would nut into their evesial,"raw," in
duced the L gentlesneer to trust to their own knowledge
of the county—so is answer to the kind letter of their
friends in Findlay, Messrs D and B mailed the follow
ing letter to Tarealstm: •
PITTiBURGII, JULY 21,1894.
To Messrs :R & H.
GENT:—Your note of the 20th has just come
to hand, and we hasten to inform you that we will be
on hand at the time and place appointed. We trust
we shall be able to show the most stubborn locofbcos
in your town, that the vote of Mr ADAMS against the
Tariff of 1842, when "rightly tuulerstood," is the best
proof that can be given of the honest devotion of the
whigs to that measure. To the other suggestions of
your letter we shall give the attention they so well de
serve. We shall be in your "village" in good time to
make the acquaintance of your citizens, to whom, un
fortunately, we are but little known. We shall leave
in the packet, and so shall arrive iu time to walk about
and see our friends before the meeting.
1
Yours, Respectfully,
In pursuance of this promise, our friends "from the
interior of the State," prepared the proper documents,
and took the "packet" fur "Findlay township." They
found Tarenturn, with some little difficulty, though it
was a mere accident they did not go on to Freeport.
They landed and walked about the town asking very
anxiously and allketionately Cot their "obliging" corres
pondents. No one knew them—no tech persons heed
in the villaga . or township. Thej went to the Post
master, and asked him if he had seen such a letter u
their answer was described to be. He turned to his
box and (spina it at once, at the same time remarking
that he bad wondered who it could be fur. The squat
ters determined to pay fur the letter, - and very-cum.
placently concluded that they were hoaxed. So, in no
very pleasant mood of mind theyook tireir.passage "back
again," vowing they would have a map of the county
published for the benefit of themselves and the other
will; leaders, so that they might be armed against such
foolish adventures in future. As for the Findlay town
ship vvhigs, our informant says they met to the number of
12, and after waiting till they were tired, adjourned, in
a terribly bad humor.
