DEVE.LOPMECNT.-A friend in looking
the Congressional Records has, furnished us the
is stated below, which we commend to the attention
of t the public. The extracts from these "authentic
documents" will serve to show the people who ore the
ritilfrienda of the country.
On the 16th Jan., 1833, General Jackson, then
Xesident of the United States, sent a special message
tttCongress, in which he communicated all the anti
tiriff proceedings ofthe nullifying convention of South
Carolina. He informed Congress in this message, that
ftlrther legislation was necessary to enable the Execu
tive to collect the duties, to execute the laws and
preserve the Union. This important message will be
found recorded on the Senate Journal of that year, at
page 35, and referred in the Senate to the committee
owthe Judiciary. Fortunately for the country, Wil-
Mint Wikins,of Pittsburgh.a friend of the tariff and the
anion, was chairman of that committee. On the list
of January. 1833, at page 113 of the Senate journ'al,
appears the following entry, "Mr Willtine, from the
ornmittee on Judiciary, to whom was referred the
message of the Plesident, of the Caked States of the
16th instant, reported a bill further to provide for
the collection of duties on imports." This bill, which
was called by the nullifiers the "Force Bill," ftom
tile fact that it contained provistoms to ros-ist 4744rr0e
of all the power of the country, the efforts then threat
ened by South Carolina to overthrow the tariff and dis
solve the Union, came up fur the vote on the engross
ment,' too the 18th" February, 1833, told the bill was
ordered tobe engrossed for a third reading; ayes 31,
nays B—Wilkins and Dallas both voting for the bill;
see senate journal, pages 193, 194. Mr Clay did ,
lot vote. Nay more, be purposely avoided the vote,
friths senate journal page 190, shows that he was pres
et:tin the Senate on that day and evening. On time
20th February, 1833, the hill came upon its final pas
sage, when the namesof Dallas and Wilkins, are again
fuand recorded in favor of the bill at page 198 of the
senate Journal; but Mr Clay did not vine—again he
purposely avoided the vote, for the same journal at
same page, shows he was then present, that day and
that evening. Mr Clay's conduct was the more stri
king on this occasion, as Mr Wilkins had given notice
that the final vote would be taken that evening. Such
was thecourse of Mr Clay as regards a bill which in.
vbWed, not only the fate of the tariff, bat the Union
also. Now what was the course of James K. Polk on
this vital measure.? He was then a member of the
House - of Representatives, and recorded his vole
in favor of this very bill. On the Ist March, 1833,
the-ftillowing procceedings will be found on the house
z jimmeMti, page 453. •
'The. House resumed the consideration of the bill
*front tbsilienate (No 82) entitled an act further to
a •r
provide forthe collection of duties on imports, and the
mainequestion was put, viM shall this bill pass—ayes
149, nays 47,' and among the ayes is t ecorded the name
of hoses K. POLK.. Whilst, then, Mr Clay, wko was
Limn courting the nullifiers and anti tariff party, skulk
. led from the responsittility of supporting this bill. Jas.
K. Polk came forward like a man and reconled his
'vote in its favor. And now, if the nullifiers of 6.-Care
*lima, again repass their ordinance to nullify the tariff, ,
_ ,dais bill, which is now the law of t h e land, for which'
James K. Polk voted, and Henry Clay refused to vote.
it Duly bill which can maintain the tariff, enforce
,
collection of the duties and preserve the Union.--
in all seriousness, in such acontinge:my, we ask, who,
'`...m.ene•irsisident, is most likely to execute this law, James
Polk who voted for it, ur Henry Clay who refuszd
for it.

FAZ.SEHOOD CoIKRECTKD.—The following statements
from the gentlemen who attended the Elizabeth Con
vention, will be a full refutation of the silly falsehood
that appeared in the Gazette, charging the democrats
with having given "three groans for Elizabeth." The
first is a letter from Mr Rody Patterson, to !them the
editor of the Gazette appealed to sustain his charge
against the procession.
SIR:—You have appealed to me for my statement in
relation to the groans for Elizabethtown, which you say
you believe were given by the Democrats returning
from the Elizabethtown Convention, at the house of J.
Cunningham. You request me also (as it is a dispu
ted point,) to decide the question. lam really glad to
afford you all the additional light which my evidence
may cast upon the subject, and you, no doubt, are ana
io'ts, as you assert, to arrive at the truth. and to give
your readers the like advantage. I hope, therefore.
you will afford this note a place in your columns. I
have however, no ambitious desire to be considered as
the arbitrator of this question. I would not • trouble
myself, or the public; but there are. two inducements
which impel me to contradict the whole story, so far
as my knowledge extends; first, because I urn unwil
ling that you should be allowed to make political capi
tol from so manifesto fabrication, and, second,becanse
I should be very reluctant to leave an impression so
unfounded upon the minds of those'who treated us
with such open handed hospitality and kindness.—
Three cheers were given for the favorite candidates,
and three groans for the drunken Whigs, who disturb
ed the Democratic procession at Elizabethtown.
I cannot permit this opportunity which you have
thus afforded me, to slip by. without making some
mention of the liberal and hospitable citizens of Eliza
beth, of both political parties. The houses of Demo
ocrats and Whigs were alike freely thrown open to us,
and I believe that no one who joined in the festivities
of the day, has ever entertained other than the kindest
feelings towards those by whom we were so cordially
received---so liberally entertained—and from whom we
parted with such sincere reluctance, and lam confi
dent that every democrat that joined in the procession
will bear me out in what I have said.
BODY PATTERSON.
Tlac undersigned, embracing nearly all the Demo
crats is the Pittsburgh Delegation that stopped at the
houseof James Cunningham, on their way from the
Elizabeth Convention, on Tuesday evening, the 20th
inst.—having seen the Card of John Forsyth, Esq.,
certifying to the charge made try some of the Whig
journals of this city, that three groans were given by
said delegation for the citizens of Elizabeth—take this
public manner of uuqualifiedly contradicting the
falsehood; and at the same time to say, that we were
all extremely well pleased with the hospitable treat
ment we received from the citizens of Elizabeth.
We Wieve the story to have gotten up by the whigs
fur the put pose of prejudicing the citizens of. Elizabeth
against the D e mocratic patty, whose prospects in that
section of the county are becoming somewhat alarming
to our opponents.

Tel ritory.—We learn from tho Green Bay Republi
can, that on the Bth inst., a hurricane, accompanied
with rain and bail, swept over Brown and Camulet
counties with such fury, that in the space of tbienty
minutos property was destroyed to the value of. $20,-
000. Houses, barns, bridges, fences, and trees were
scattered and tossed about like chaff; and in many
pieces the crops of everykind were flattened and des
troyed. Trees, four and five feet in diameter, were
twisted off at Duck Creek, a. d at Suamico river, all
the large trees for the distance of half a mile in the
direetinn of tho Bay shore, were Other turn up or
blown down. Every bridge between Twin Rivera and
Green Bay, and two-thirds of those between Green
Buy and Food Du Lac, woe swept away.

SHIPWRECK AND LOSS OF LIFE.
A correspondent of the Chicago Journal furnishes
the following particulars of a recent melancholy 'hip
wreck near Kalamazoo:
We have another disastrous wreck, which has proved
the wreck of death to every soul on bowl. to add a
melancholy list of former ones in this vicinity, more,
especially in the immediate neighbeuhood of Kalama
zoo Harbor. Oa Friday, August Bth, in the.afternoon,
two vessels. the •Min,' of Milwaukie and the 'Daniel
Whitney,' of Green Bay, Capt Croaker, clensred.feum
Kalamazoo Gtr Chicago. In the evening and night a
heavy gale came on from the Westward, which caused
great anxiety foi the safety of the weasels ` which were
endeavoring to got an offing. Nothing further was
heard of these vessels till Saturday afternoon and
Sunday following. Fist the fragments of a galliry
were found, and the shore and waters adja-:ent to Kala
mazoo were strewed with bark, giving presage of the
probable wreck of thu 'Whitney; and loss of all on
board.
The sailors and others in the harbor were on the
lookout for the wreck, and on Monday morning the
crew of the M. Smith discovered it about four or five
miles from the shore. The vessel was cepoised and
lay keel up—a ith her masts all in, and her rigging
mostly upon her. On being informed of the disoovety
by the crew of the M. Smilh, I immediately took mea
sures to secure the wreck. On Thursday - morning *e
took the wreck into the harbor, and commenced dis
charging her cargo of bark. Two of the men,
of
cook
and a rumen er, were found in the bottom 01 the yes
sel under the bark, Nothing has been discovered of
the master and the other man who was on board.
They leave undoubtedly perished.
Thus we have lost within sight of Kalamazoo with
in the short space of 18 or 20 months, nineteen lives
and many thousand dollars worth of property. The
strong and dangerous winds upon this lake are almost
all from such a direction that their force and fury is
spent upon the Eastern shore, and there fur the greater
?ropottion of life and property is sacrificed:

IioRAIBLIE OUTRAG6.—Wp learn from the N. 0.
Tropic, that en affray took place at Childers' Hotel,in
Vick.sburgh, on the 16th instant ' between a man by the
name of Porter, wbc is said to be an ovetseer, a man
of desperate character. and a highly respktable young
man, a carpenter, named Water., which resulted in
the death of the latter. The facts are these. Wa
ters mai, a statement with regard to some trilling
matter, which Porter, in a very insulting manner,.de
nied and offered to bet that it was not so. Waters re•
plied he did not wish to bettind as his conversation
was directed to others, he declined having any thing to
do with him. Porter then threatened to whip him,
which he told hits to do at hi,4 petit. Porter then en
deavored to borrow a pistol, saying that he would have
revenge, but not succeeding, lie left the bar-room,
la o•
tained sad concealed a knife, and then returned and
attacked Waters with sewhip, and on his reslitance,
stabbed him to the heart, and when the bystanders
took-hold of hi* arm, the with seine ferocity, twist
ed the knife in the wyand that be might make sere
work. Ho was forthwith arrested, and it remains to
be seen how the authorites of Vickburgh will deal
with such ablood tbisrty, ferocious and cold blooded
murderer.-
Bloody doingt in 'Pexas.—The New Orleans Pi
.teyuno of the 22d inst, hays that there are rumors of
bloody doings in Shielby and Hartison counties, Tex

Regulators," es they term themselves, are arrayed

each. Several persons have been killed, houses burn
ed,and plantation. destroyed. This is ttuly a horrible
state of 'things. We also learn, verhallY , that one
Davis, the leader of the "Regulators," has been shot.
with twelve or fiftems others. It is further stated, that
Gen Henderson was about to leave Shreveport to use
his influence to bring about an arrangement of the diffi
culties.

GENT LV.:IIIEN:—I hav e made trial of your Vapor
Bath. The benefit thereof has much exceeded
my expectatio s. I had not a tleipated the degree of
pleasure produced by the medicated vapor during
the whole process of its operation. I could scarcely
have spent fifteen minutes mar , pleasantly; while
my longs were inhaling an odorifemus perfumed at
i inosphere, and every ;ere of my - system r tvas exuding,
1 in copious perspiration; motions humors, iltOurinus to
1 the heAtlty state." I left the Bath greatly refreXhed;
i and evenexhilemted. I had been tronbled moth with
1 rheumatic pains. and never done with fatigue cf busi..
lIPIHI the pains were completely removed, and I re
ceived fresh animation. It cannot, it Is true, cure
broken bones, or reduce dislocations "of joint-;to such
things it makes no pretensions. But t con and does,
expel from the-body, such itecentit. to dter as pay. by
its presence, be inromp tilde with n perfectly healthy
