there arc still plenty of McCutcheons in the Whig party
who will swear to any charges that the %Writes anti

We would cuutiort the Democrats to be on their

. FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
GEO. M. DALLAS,
W. PYRNSYLVANI•.
THE Riau cr.—h will be seen by the following
table that Vito/cis R. SHUN IC is elected Governor of
I Pennsylvania. The counties to hear from will increase
ibis majority, which may reach 4500 or 5000. In
consequence of the bape and heart less manner in which
he as. Assailed, hie vote is less than it would have
been in many enmities, and in almost all. will Nit behind I
that a hich Coll. PULE will receive. We can assure
our friends abroad that the a big. have dune their worst,
and that Polk's mnjority in November will far exceed
Mr. SHUNieS majority. The only hope of the whips
for cart yin the State against Col POLE, is by deceiv
ing the people on the Tariff question. They have Hied,
by all the Arts of Falsehood and deception, to make
the people believe that tkey were the exclusive friends
of the Tariff—they ran candidates for Congress, in
many districts, with an eye to this questiim alone, and
tl , ey have been defeated shamefully. Buffington - and
Reed set themselves up as the only Tariff can
didates; the democrats, however. were not to-be bum.
bogged—but took Tariff men from their own ranks,
and elected th m—men whose devotion to . the Tariff
will not be regulated by the changeful course of CLAY
on this subject.
Out vicssny may thus be summed up: We have e

Roorback aifigitres.—The whip are telling some
tough stories about Delaware. One thing is clear and
indisputable. Delaware has given a democratic ma
jority of 66. The false accounts received and pub
lished in this city are thus explained by the Wilming.
ton Gazette :
'•ln order to snake every thing look the best.they
can, the whig papers of this city have, in giving the re
turns of the Hundred elections, renewed their former
practice of deception, by giving the highest vote on the
!big, and the lowest on the democratic ticket, instead
Of the average vote oa each. And in regard to the
vote in thiscity they do not even allow us all that we
got fur oar lowest candidates. They set the demo.
oral ', m akrity down 53, when our lowest vote was
37 and Our biithest 91. The public may, theMfore,
be able to judge what dependence shonld be placed on
these whig organs.'!
'•Fow by thrte-henlid Janus, Nature has forns*d

V. B. Markle.: Stuw k.
It ho re n.-tobererl that extrrwts. said tube from
letters written at the time, (1824-5) by Henry Clay to
Mr Blair, have been been from time to time published,
shriwing that Mr Clay was in the to trket, and wits bar
gtining with th.e different candidates for the Piesitian
' cy. Those extracts wrre•pronounced by the friends of
1 7 , Mr Cloy to be fake Mr Leigh, of Richmond, hag
" 26. lately published these letters. We republish them
1613 that esery 140,4 may see what Mr Clay himself then
'''')*() said nod did. If any ane can read them and the tei
timonyconnected with them, and recollect the circum
stances of the case, ,tod not believe that Mr Clay sold
his and his friends' support of Mr Adams for the
Presidency, for and in coosidr ration uf the post of Sec
retary of Stare, lie world not believe though one twirl
from tho dead.
We shall recur to these lettert shortly, and show
their hearing in t.t her points of view nn Mr. Clay's cub
serisent act» and opinitms; at pnatent it is only with
reference ro hig enndoet in 1834-5 that we, present
them. 'The collaretal history. taken front a ipeech - of
the Hon. Lynn Boyd, of Kentucky, in Congress, 'April
20, 1845, we will also ['oldish shortly. It has been
repeatedly assert.sd that the charge against M. Clay
has been disproved. and the name of a 'arter Bern
has been given. Of Mr Beverly or his statements we
have btu Hole recollection; but will atic one show 11,1
where Mr Bar4er, Mr Mangum. or M 1 Dudley, of
North Carolina, hove ever denied that they believed
A nd said there was-s corrupt bargain; or where Mr.
Dell, yr Mr Foster, of Tennessee, have entered tl eir
withdrawal of the charge; or indeed any of the known
persons whose nami-s have been published in anthem i
tication of the charge' Many of these gentle
men are now in high places, and in favor of Mr.
Clay's election, yet have they not wiped out this
foul stain which they h•-lped to affix upon his charac
ter. It cannot be wiped ono; it is there indelibly affix
ed, and every attempt to effade it but makes the mark
sink deeper.—Pennsylvanian.

THE CLAY AND AD \MS BARGAIN OUT AT
LAS T.
From Mr Albany Argus.
MR. CLAY CORNERED
We subjoin, in as brief a apace as possible, the
questions recently rut to Mr Clay, on several suldects,
and his answers thereto from his retirement at Ash
land—in order that all honest men may know when to
find him, when asked or when seeking to know what
his actual position is, heroic the country. The goes-
Lions andjanswers are taken, as far as quoted. from his
own letters, as heretofore published.
MR. CLAY AND THE "BARGAIN."
Messrs Lawrence and Wharton—As politieul
op
ponents, we have had a dispute about the alleged un
derstanding between you and Mr Adams in '23,
touching his election by the H. of R. as President, nod
your appointment by him as Secretary of State. We
have agreed to rest the whole mutter in dispute upon
the purport of a certain letter said to have been writ•
ten by you to Francis P Blair, of the Globe, which it
is claimed on the one hand fully establshes the charge
of a corrupt bargain between you and Mr. Adams.—
'We hope you will immediately authorize Mr Blair to
make public that or any other evidence in his posses
sion relating to this matter.'-11 7 ashinrou, Ohio,

I should be governed by the state of fact, and the state

direct than this I If you can't tell us what you would

LET fERS FROM ENGLAND.
Professor Wright's last letter from England. pith.
lished in the BOal , all Chronicle, has the follow iog ob
serve:ions:—

not he mistieder.tood to speak disrespectfully of that
ieterel.tingdaeghte r of Eve, the ritath, who with sucl:

immensurable woes 0, that I hail the eye of a pro
phet, nod could say there was •isible, in the dimmest
distance of the future, any thoraugh relief. As it i.:;
sanguine hope, without seeing any thing, guesses that
deliverance most come, somehow or at some time of
other. The order in which the evils press upon the
country seems to me to be, first, bcercruft; second,
priestcnift ; third, kingeraft. Till the beercraft is es
moved —till the people get clear heads and strong hearts
which pure water gives, ire vain you lift at the ether.
Suppose you abolish the taxes and tithes, and give
Enelond a cheap government, and free church, and fait_
suffrage, to what will it amount. so fee as the masses 4
are concerned 7 I'recisely to more beer, acd cense
quences of beer! I may be mistaken; truly I have
found warm and zealouf promoters of thorough terra
perance, hut they seem to tat regarded as the maddest
of the fanatics. Niue men nut of ten ainorie the labor
ing classes, so far as I have been able to observe; and
f have ty!en quite inquisitive, have not the slighter
harder between themselves and stupidity. and drunk
enness, but their inability to get enough beer. It is
their undoubted creed that beer is a blessing, and one
of their deepest sorrows that their sages will not al
low them to get plenty of it, with a drop or two of gin
by way of luxury. Look at poor chartisrn, befogged
in beer! fighting us awn as any. way against itself, and
selling to its worst enemies even the little suffrage it
commands! If the masses of Eughoul could be nursed
to enter upon the cnteer so glerimisly begun by these
of Ireland, they would .non take a positi to which
would settle meter of the knottiest questions of politics
and the crafts of die priest aid the king would be
swept away like the meshes of the spoiler The state
and the church would then take their places as ser
vants of the peeple--not ma ten. Yet with all this,
which to an American mind Is so evideet, stating them
in tho face, there are plenty of sincere pitilanthroprsts
here enemies of slavery, of corn laws, of church tyran
ny, of a vulture aristocracy, who elliptic you for not
drinking wine witb them! who will raise the cup of
Cicero to their own tips, and then lament the tippers
skin and degradation of England's leer! Put the
brewers of England in the same condition with het
feudal ca-ties and monasteries, mid her pour will soon
take care of other curnpyres,
The discovery in Germany of the wonderful sanitary
prepetties of cold seater, is inuking a deep itnpressimi
upon the higher and middle classes here. The &re
-1 tors are not able to lough it down. Alter spending
fortunes on physicians in vain, invalids go to Grafen
burg and are ,healed. A child with the scarlet fever
is wrapped in a wet sheet and gets well. Men rum
mage their librat its and find that just such cures have
been performed at Malvern a hundred years ago, sad
the water when analyzed is the purest possible. And
they find cases in which patients with raging fever and
delirium have broken loose from their nurses stud
jumped into the Thames or some horsepond, and their
madness has proved better than the wisdom of the
doctors. Many are coming to the enerlusion that dis
ease is chiefly some mysterious modification of that
great pciron, diet, with which we are sent into this
world to battle, and this redotnels greatly to the ad
vantige of pure water. Setting poisons to catch poi
sons is growing into disrepute with these people, and
consequently they .may by and by expected to we the
absurdity of sending one dram of alcohol into the
stomach to' cure the disease made by its predecessor.
The multitude of experiments which have now put the
mutter fairly to the test, seems to demonstrate that
coldness combined with pure water, is the best means,
that has ever been tried to quench the human inflam- 1
minden, and when properly applied will cure any pa
tient who has strenglh to be cared in any way. This
being true, die occupation—l do not say &tithe doctors, '
for it-will require science arid wisdom to apply cold
water—but of the druggists--or all Medina - pwiron
manufacturers, is gone. Arid shall not alcohol be in.
eluded? From the bold this subject has taken of the
most intelligent here, I look to see a great patieoloiri•
cal reform which I think cannot fail to set the princi
ple often's! abstinence upon a mere commanding foun
dation than it has hitherto occupied. If you can get
the wine out of the beads of the philanthropic of the
higher class, then will they see clearly the effects of
beer upon the lower. Both once delivered; the aseien,
would not be long in discovering the folly of working
itself to death to mrepart a class of grand and idle
hereditary pickpockets, nor long in devising means of
relief.. See if the new vision bestowed upon the Irish
peoplodoos not work out such results. England wants
as nudist like rasher-Mathew.

-rP . The trial 'of Mr Ford. at St Louis, Missouri
at a charge of murdering Mr Low. was brought to a
door on Saturday. the 28th ultimo, by n.verdict of net
guitiy from the jury after only five mir.utes' consults
,ion The case had occupied the Court nearly the
whole week. The following remarks, copied from the
iew Era, o ill exhibit the ground of this acquittal:
"The ostensible defence set up was insanity, hut the
eat and snlortantial tervorn urged for acquittal was that
Low had deceived the only daugh er of Ford by pre
nide of marriage. and 'refused to comply with bid en
.:agement and desered her unde r circumstances well
laleulated to excite the indignation of a parent. In
'heir attempt to prove Fool's insanity, the causes and
ymptoms thereof, the !torture of his insanity, and the
4rjects upon which it operated, they brought out the
whole history of the intercourse between Low and the
laughter of Ford, and thus brought before the jury
'arts which probably had a powurful effect upon them.
