:IMATOIe MECASICIST. —This gentleman evident.
feele abet he bee acted very foolishly it attempting to
taropitiste the Clay men by getting eleven u itigs to sign
elapse pledging themselves to write for the whig care
ilia* . and he attempts to divert public attention from
his folly by publishing in the Gazette a column of low
abuse against the Post. A gentleman, who, like Mr
Mestaskey, thinks he is smart enough to barter away
the *link. Liberty party for a mess of whig pottage,
should know that the public has sagacity enough to
discriminate between blackguardism and argument,
anti will not be very apt to acquit him of the charge of
caquetting with the Whigs. when nothing ispkred to
disprove it but low abuse. Passing over'the windy
slaps of this new ally of the whigs, we will extract the
paragraph liana his article:
snit represented in a recent number of that, i mma
culitte jetrnnl, as holding a conversation with a LINT. ,
ty man, whom I informed that the Whias had offered
me the ensuing n omination for the Mayorultv. in the
meet of my renouncing the Liberty party and joining
the 'whip; ranks. This representation, carries. I con
ceire, on the into of it, unequivocal evidence of its base.
neis and falsehood. The Whig, every body knows.
had no authority , to make me such a proposition: but
even if they had, end f had been base enottell to ac
cede to it, I should certainly have had sufficient W P•
cionatri conceal my own dtstrace. Such an un/t/ush.-
img *owdatiotts faiishooct as this. no candid intelli
geet man in the community, can believe."
la the above Mr Mecasky wishes the public to be
lieve that the charge of his bargaining with the Clay
men - for rho Mayotalty is untrue. although ho hiss not
dared to say at directly. Notwithsttinding this indi
rect denial,we have reason to believe thatthe charge is
literally true. If it is not, we arc ready at any moment
to give the name of the Liberty man from whom we re
ceived the information, to Mr Me"askey or any of his
friends who entertain a doubt of the 'bargain and sale.'
Our ittfermant we believe to be a . man of veracity, and
. incapable of circelatiae an • a oil iOll3 falsehood' against
any person. If Mr Mcca.k.ey is innocent, let him call
on this gentleman to retract the charge.
His account of the manner in which be obtained sig
natures to his false statement, is directly contradictory
to that of one of the gentlemen whose name is attached
to it. We were informed by him that he neither read
or saw the statement, know nothing (.1 its contents and
- was not aware that his nama wain it, until"told so by
a friend after its puldieation.
.We would advise Mr Mecasky, before he undertakes
to abuse others, to clear. his skirts of a wall-founded
auspit ion which now excite in the public mind, that he
bas meanly atiempted to betray the Liberty party to the
Clay men, fur which they have promised him the May
oralty nomination. By doing this, he will reeve him
self 'a better ar,cl a eiser naan' than he yesterday show
ed himself to 'be—if we may borrow a remark made
by Clay to Mendenhall, when the latter asked him to
liberate his slaves.

THE WS THAT IS Sllin OT IT.--The statement
Publi. , bed. by 11.1avor M..easkr-y and eleven other whigs
was intended more for foreign service than home con
sumption. It is well known here that these twelve
signers are old, cuteni.tent whigs, who have always sup
ported that ticket. and who, if they entertain any of
the principles of the Liberty men, have never been
knowr. as members or that party. But abroad the mat
tents not understood so well, and consequently we find
the New York Tribune announcing it los an important
change in favor of Clay Will the Tribune correct its
statement and inform its reach rs that these twelve
pretended changes ore all consistent whigs; have al
ways supported the v,hig ticket and wete never known
as perahers of the Litier.y party?
The whir pryers abroad, that desire to procure a
chaineter for veracity should be careful in giving publici
tylto any information they may receive from the whig
organs in this city, or the s quatters who at present lead
the whig party. They might to know that the ptinci
pal editor is the man who but a short time since charg
ed Clay with having "throttled the Tariff," and also I
denounced him as an "immoral profane man," a
"'gambler and duellist." The other sheet has not
even the virtuous hypecri-1 of the deacon; but glories
in putting forth m isrepresentations in surh a light that
every person may know them to he false. As for the
squatters, they are all hunting office; they are as greedy
ab h 1f famished leeches, nod they seise on every new
inventimi that offers the sliehtest pi obability of aiding
their de. prate canoe. No reliance cull be placed in
any of these, and the whip abroad should be cautious
'soot - they receive their statements without r.orrobotu
tloo from more reliable sources.

Your-, my democratic fellow citizens, is indeed a
glorious cause It is the people's cause. It is the
cause of human ltberty. It LI the cause of equal rights.
Tu you, and to y air party, it entrusted its safe keep

the principles of which were sa wisely and so eloquent
ly expounded by the sage of Monticello, and were so
faithfully and so successfully practised by him of the
liermouge.
As its champions and exponents, your party, with
unprecedented utianimity, has placed in nomination for
your support. James K. Polk, of Tennessee, for Presi
dent. and George M. Dallas, of Pennsylvania for Vice
President.—men tried and true—men whose private
lives are models for the imitation of virtuous youth,
and whose examples, in their respective public careers,
will be handed down to posterity, as heirlooms of their
country Uf Mr Dallas, I need say nothi .g. Ile is
a true hearted Pennsykanian, peasonally known to
many of you, and whose public life has been constant
ly before the eyes of all. You know him, and confide
in him. Mr Polk, though a citizen of another and a
distant State, is well known to you by his public acts,
performed in the discharge of the decks of ulna many
exalted 'Amiens to which he has been called by his fel
low-citizens. A. a member of the State Legislature,
as a member of C .ngresa, as Speaker of the House of
Representatives, and as Goveruur of Tennessee, he
performed the duties of all those arduous situations in
such a manner as to acqiiire the confidence of candid
IPPII, of all parties, in h ie competency and integrity, end
secure for himself, unsolicited by him, the distinguish
ed position he now occupies on the democratic ticket.
Of the orthodoxy of his political principles. there ran
be no question. It is deducible from his undeviating
consistency, from his unshaken firmness. His speech
es, reports and votes in Congress, his messages as
Govern of the State over which he presided, and his
various letters addressed in reply to enquiries made of
him,—all demonstrate that his principles are drawn
from the pure fon dein of Jeffenamian democracy. Nor
could it well be otherwise;--rocked, by his revolution
ary sire, in the cradle of those principles frotn which
young Liberty wok her birth;—the disciple of Jeffer
son and the friend of Jackson, he could not be other
than wham he is.
Look, on the other hand, at the candidates present

with your own: How wide and marked the difference.

I congratulate you my tlemactstic fellow-citizens,
—frinn the bottom of my heart, I Congratulate you, on
the vast and multitudinous assemblage which I now see

on the unexampled zeal, ardor and enthusiasm; on
the light and warmth of patriotic-public feeling, °Ads
bed on 'hie occasion by the democracy of Allegheny.
Never before,at any time or on any occasion,within the
limits of this great, enterprising and populous county,
has there been witnessed any meeting, equalling the
present in numbers or enthusiasm. On brief notice,at
the call of patriotism, you have turned nut, in thou
sands anon thousands, with emblematic banners and
tiansparencies, with music and with torches, for• the
purpose of ascertaining and demonstrating your I
strength, and renewing your mutual pledges of devo
tion and fidelity to the great principles of hurean lib•
erty, the maintenance of which has ever been the pride
and the glory of the democratic party. Well may you
rejoice—well may yourcity, your county, your state,
the Union, rejoice—welt may democracy every where
rejoice,—at such a splendid demonstration of numbers
and of zeal, evoked in such it cause. It is a anbject of
rejoicing to all, Savo only to the most unscrupulous of
your unscrupulous Whig. Federal, Tory opponents.—
They, indeed, muy well tremble at the certain indica
tions of the downfall of their base political principles:
they may tremble at the extinguishment of all their
hopes for the attainment of executive influence, and pa
tronage, and, wealth and power, the darling objects of
their low and covetous ambition. But even they,—
could they elevate themselves to the comprehension of
a magnanimous feeling—would have no cense for re
gret. They would feel well assured that in the ap
proaching triumph of democracy,the interests.the well.

erty of conscience, nor the liberty of speech. nor the
liberty of the preys, nor any right guaranteed by the
Constitution to-American citizens, would be 'violated;
that no star would bo dimmed, nor stripe effaced from
freedom's banner. Certain it is that aU expotience

that at no time has the triumph of democracy been sig
nalized by the invasion of any of the rights of the per
sons or property of the citizen; thane burning of pri

scared at the sight of it, and began to jump and squeal
till I thought he was going mad; but he jumped so all
fireti hard that he broke the chain and run off, and I
have tat seen him since. I will give any body a levy
if they.Tind him, for I *mild not have lost him for a
dollar. The way any body will know him is because
he is the same color as any other coon, only be has got
a kno . .. in his tail. Mother said it was the Louisiana

Green Corn Pudding.—Take of green corn tw ve

ell
a quarter of a pound of fresh butter, four eggs,
beaten, pepper and snit, as much as sufficient; stir all
well together, and bake four hours in a butterod.dieh.
Some cola to the other ingredients a quarter of a pound
of sugar. and eat the pudding with sauce. It is good
cold or warm, with meat or sauce; but epicures of the
most esqnisite taste declare for it, we believe, hot, and

EXTRACT OP A LETTER TO HON. Mamma StERCEE.
IN ANtWER TO HIS ISQUIRIES ON THE Ern:CV) Of
THE MEDICATED VAPOR BATH:
APHYSICIAN in the first class of his profession
had a cadent effected with a diseased
for whom he prescribed the usual remedies tint with
out success, at a time when - his petient was se debilita
ted AS to be unable to walk but [veil little even with
the aid of crutches. it was determined after mash ere
entry and invesiigatit n to try the effect of the Medics
ted Baths, six Baths enabled the patient to emit About
the house with crutches; *ix more were succeeded by
the ability to walk in the streets with crutches; a Due:
cession of Baths hat enabled the patient to walk,th6
streets without them.
A person of great respectability in the western part
of this State, bad nearly a year jaeen unable to walk
without the aid of at utebes, owing to a complaint in
the knee; several of the most iespertahle medical gen
denten in that part of the country who were consulted
,Al the case entertained such various opinions as to the
[ stature of the disease as left it doubtful whether it was
[ a white swelling or not. Their prescriptions afforded
[ no relief, the patient was taken to Pieladelphia and
placed under the care of one .of the firtt professional
gentlemen of that city, obtaining no relief the patient
left Philadelphia to tete. , " hetne almost hopeless of re
covery. In this city, betcever, it was deemed advitt.
able to consult the Phesician alluded to in the case
first stated, who baying witnessed the efficacy of the
Bath in that case, recommended itas most likely to
afford relief in the present instance se result proved
the accuracy of -his-judgment and the efficacy of the
remedy, for their patient after a few weekiuse of the
Bath was enabled to walk without crutches and to ra.
turn home .without the need or aid of them. The
