who refuse to aid the office hunting whigs in their
effotts to overthrow the people.
FirrsauneH, Sept. 27, 1844.
During-Gen..Jackrion's last tetra, the usual steps
were taken to erect a German Reformed Church edifice
in-Washiuree city. The members of that Church,
were not numerous then, and not able to defray the
*hole cost of that Wieling, and as i customary
to
such cotes. aid wet sought from persons uho were not '
connected with it.
The able end faithful pastor of the - Church, the
Rev. Mr. Uniterer, called , upon .various gentlemen in 1
Washington, and was received with uniform courtesy
and kindness, laid one diatiagnoiohed exception. He
received donations frorn Mr. VVebster,. JohnQ. Adams,
!fir. Van Buten, Gen. Cass and others. When he
called upon Mr. Clay at his lodgings,and politely and
respectfully made known his request, Mr. Clay became
greatly excited and rising from his seat spurned the ,
application with disdain, and assigned as a reason,
that the Germans were unworthy of uid. He indulged
in the most violent abuse of the Germars,and portico-'
larly the German population of Pennsylvania.
, He adverted to dinprearding -eiecaio&in Pennsyl
vania, which had gone strongly Democnttic, and said.
that "the Dutch were too ignorant to vote...that they
were not fit to be freemen—they were ft citizens
only, for the despotintur of their mpg/4w cowntry.and
were unworthy of a Republicaa.Gorernment.• That
they would hitch themselves to the car of Gen Jack
son, and drag hint along like mules or area.
No said more equally - v i olent, and utterly refused to
contribute any thing, and he areated the application
with 'nest unbecuming and undignified disrespect.—
The Rev Ungerer is a gentleman of polite and gen
teel manners, and a well-read scholar,and a Minister of
the Gospel of high'eharacter.

So, the democratic Eagle has added 40,932 to the
strength of his wing since 1840, in these 10 states, and
the weight of the coon of '4O being lessened by 9r,624,
he is able to soar with a power greater by 138,556,
than in the hard cider era, when the anon was fatter, and
the ncble bird had his wings clipped. Who shall say
what an elevation he may not atttain. with these ad
! vantagesover the coon that he is to carry in his talons?
To drop the figure—the coons have lost in 13 states,
ninety seven thousand six hundred and twenty-four'
of their majorities of 1840—and the democrats havead
dedforly thousand nine hundred end tkirty-iteo to
their majorities in that year—making a DEMOCRAT
IC GAIN in the aggregate, of ONE HUNDRED
AND THIRTY EIGHT THOUSAND, and upwards,
in about half the states of the Union. In a word.
the democrats in these states have nearly annihilated
Gen. Harrison's majority in the whole Union in
1840--which was 146,206.
Besides this great result upon the popular vote. the
comparison by states. is eqnally astonishing. Not les.
than sin states that gave Harrison majority in 1840 have
wheeled into the drmocratic line—Penney/stania,
Maine, Indiana, - Louisiana, Delaware and Geor
gia—whilst Maryland, North Carolina. New Java',
Ohio, and even Kentucky, heretefiere strong-holds of
whiggery, have been shaken to the centre, and some
of them maybe said to be on the Smiting point.
Who can doubt este the set of the popular currant,

PIRICADKI.PHIA, Friday EVE', Oct 18, 1844.
The Convention is drawing near its close and will
probably adjourn to-motrow or Monday. The two
most exciting (rewirs having been dispoted of: that
is the resolution of Mr Memmineer. of S. C. with its
&treat! amendments on the subject of the Oxfori
Tracts. and rigirestine an expression of opinion there
on by the Houte of !bishops, and that respectins the
ronsecratiaa of the Rev Doet. FL Hawks Bishop e
lect of Mississippi. The follow ing resolution settles
the first, air:
Resolved. That the House of Clerical and Lay
Delerstes consider the articles, liturgy und offices of
' the Church, sufficient exponents of her sense of the
essential doctrines of Holy Scripture, and that the
canons of the church ofTbrd ample Means of discipline
and correction from all who depart from her standards.
And further, that a General Convention is not a suita
ble tribunal for a trial and censure of such': and that
the Church is not responsible for the errors of intlivik
ads, whether they are members of this Church or
otherwise.
The last has resulted in the following:
Resolved, That' in the opinion of this House all
proceedingsrespeeting the consecration of the Rev.
Francis H Hawks, D D, ought to be suspended until
a future Convention of the Diocese of Mississippi shall
deliver their sense of the subject.
Resolved, That all the documents now, before this
House relating to the gam:, be delivered to the depu
ties from Mississippi, to be laid before the Convention
of Mississippi.
These Resolutions were passed almost unanimously,
so that the danger apprehended from the exciting na
ture of the subjects, has proved to be -of little conse
quence, and the unity of the Church nahneCitipted.
The canon making the term of probation for Minis
ters from other denominations "onv year," passed this

Dealk of Airs. Cilley.—We learn by • private
letter from Thomaston. Maine, that Mrs. Cilley, the
widow of Jonathan Cilley, who was killed in the duel
with (=raves, died at her residence in East Thomas.
ton, Maine, on the 15th itst. The death of this lady,
who fell a victim to the barbarous code of duelling,
awakens the most melancholy associatiUns and recol
lections. Ever since the savage death of her husband,
her health has been - much impaired, - .Ad portions of
the time her mind has been wandering, and in the
most melanclaoly state. She baa at - length fallen to
sleep, and her poor lacerated and brakes heart is at
rest.
Graves, the doable murderer, and Henry Clay, who
wrote the challenge that permitted of no explanation,
are among the living; the latter is a candidate fur the
Ilhighest office in the gift of the people, and the former
leads the Whig electoral ticket of Kentucky, and - has
been malting speeches to secant his elemioa. Will the
death eihis amiable and accomplished lady, and the
lonely condition of her orphan children, make no im
-pression upon the murderous hearts of these ment
-And does not her premature decease, while it awakens
the sad recollections ofthe death of her husband, call
for the strong voice ofpnblie opinion against the men
who were the prineipalsin this gloomy tragedyl-rifay
Slats Democrat.
MR.'SIIUNK AT DOWNINGTOWN.
We learn from than.) who Weire at the meeting at
Downington on Saturday, that it was very large and
enthusiastic. Numbers of both political parties, a
mong whom were' not a few members of the Society
of Friends, came from many Miles round to see and
speak to "Otn &wait." All speak in the highest
honor of every thing he said and did. Mr IStialunan's
speech on the occasiou, we learn fr'om many persorr,
was one of the must eloquent and elli•ctivc 'flirts that
has been made during the present political canvass.
We would be deeply gratified, and so we ate sire
would be the whole democracy of the city and county,
if our ,arblts *Au tOf could , make. it.convenient, consist-•
eat with his other engagements, to pay us a visit din
ing the present or eueului week.
