U S iLTOR.—We observe that some of nor east
ern cutemporaries are permitting themselves to get in
to a passion on the subject of a U S Senator. Unkind
remarks about any one of the candidates will not be of
the slightest advantage to any of the tither aspirants.
but may have the effect of disseminating bitter personal
feelings among those who should act with harmony
and good will. It will require the united etfurts of the
democratic representation in the Legislature to elect a
man who wilt properly 'represent the wishes and prin
ciples of a majority of the people of the State. Many
of the gentlemen that have been named for the distin
guished station are well deserving the confidence of
the party, end their election would be received with
goat satisfaction. We are confident that none but a
worthy men and sound democrat will be chosen, and
we cunsiderit the height of folly for the organs of the
party to work themselves into a passion about the mer
its of those who do not stand the slightest chance of
an election, and who, perhaps, do not desire it.
his a settled feeling in all parts of the State, that
the Senator to - be elected at ensuing session of the
Legislature, must be selected from the west. This
part of the State has brought forward a number of
men, whose commanding talents, unswerving attach.
ment to the principles of democracy and ardent efforts
in every mensurethat will contribute to the welfare of
the people, would cause the election of either of them
to be hailed with universal public approbation. We .
believe that the claims of the west will not be dispu
ted, and with such candidates as it will present, we
nannot understand why nny other section of the State ;
should endeavor to push forward other aspirants fur
the station.
In whatever discussion "may take place on the sub
ject, we hare all personal criminntions maybe avoided,
and as the merits, personal and polls ical, of all the
candidates are well known, we hope it will be left to
the Legislature to decide upon. There is no dang e r
that anyone unworthy the confidence of the party will
be selected, and we believe it bad policy to get up a
discussion about the matter, in which Injustice may
be done to those who are in every respect &serving of
any favor the public can bestow. . •
NA.TIYISM Asa li• RTFORD CONVEXTIONISX.--•
Ainny of the leaders tithe Native party, would be
much offended if charged with being, personally, no
better than the Hartford Coeventiouists, who tried to
plot treason during the last war, and to devise means
to thwart the efForts the country was then ma
king to drive back a foreign foe. The following

to know in what tiddlers from the amendment demand

THE GARLAND FORGERY.---JAme3 G. BIRNEY
and the Executive Committee of the Liberty men of .
Detroit, Michigan, have 'lmpaled a long statement,
sustained by affidavits and letters, attesting that a let
ter purporting to be from Mr BIHNET to a Mr J fT
Gs at.asto, whiob- was- 'Omani on the eve of the Pre
sidential election, Was a FOHGEHY. The friends of
Mr 13/RNEY promptly denounced it as a forgery,, when
it appeated, and the Pittsburgh Gazette affected much
indignation at the author when it was ascertained
to be so. As the Gazette published the injurious
letter, it is hut just that it should insert the full Refu
tation. Will it do se? We shall are.
Santous lesunatacrtov.—A letter fronitangityrn,
dated the 15th ult. published in the U S Gazette, states
that an insurrection of rather a serious character, has
recently btoken out in the neighborhood of Lemma, in
that province, some 60 or 70 miles from Caracas. A
body of troops was immediately despatched by the Go
vernment to the camp of the insurgents, for the pur
pose of restoring order; nn their arrival a Aag a truce
was sent to the hostile army, with offers of pardon and
protection to all who would morn peaceably to their
home.. These offers were. however, njected, and a
battle ensued, which resulted in the complete over
throw of the revolters, and the death of their leaders.
Centeno and Alvarado.
INCIDENT AT THIt GURAT FIRE IN SALE:qt.—The
Salem Register, of Monday, records t.f. vend incidents
of the great arc in that city on Thursdly. Among
them is the following: A little babe. in one of the hou
sea destroyed, whether through accident or design we
know tot, was enveloped in a fether bed, thrown from
the window, and the bed removed to a distance ftom
the conflagration. The poor mother. at the fate of her
innocent, was almost distracted, and filled dm air with
her shrieks, until her child was found uninjured and
unconscious, sleeping safely in its novel quarters inthe
street.
ENGILIOH MINISTEIt T Romi.—lhe Gov
ernment have applied, through some nebleivan at
Rome, to Cardinal Acton, in the hope of obtaining his
interest with the Pope, in favor of a renewal of diplo
rr.atic intercouse between the Vatican and St James.
The Cardinal replied that before such a measure can
be entertained by his Holiness, all the penal laws a
gaiust Popery must be repealed in Parliament; and,
when that is done, it will be a tine qua non in any
Convention that may be offered by the Pope that there
shall be a nuncio at StJames'.
Tee Teats. U Swore or Ws, R.—The three new
sloops of war, the Portsmouth, built at Portsmouth,
New Hampshire; the St Mary's, built at Washington,
and the Jamestown, built at Norfolk, are now all at an
chor in the harbor of Norfolk, where they have been
ordered for the purpose of testing their respective sail
ing qualities. They are all spoken of as unusually
swift vessels, of the most perfect model and finish, and
the result of their trial of speed will be looked to with
great interest.

THE ANTI-RENT INEURRECTIoN —Every day bt ing4
more alarming news from the scene of violence and
insubordination along the Hudson. Ihe authorities
having so fur slept, apparently,have at length become
alarmed, and are bestirring themselves in earnest.—
The following letter gives the latest particulars:
lindron, Dee 25.—Our anti-rent troubles ate on
the incrett.e. The examination (.1' four prisoners now
going on, is likely to unravel all the secreta of their ae
sociation formed in this money, on the 19th of Octo
ber 11.4 t. it enrols some very respectable formere,and
e but is more astonishing, some too who own their landa
in fee.
A very respectable farmer was committed
f r om witness's stand, who refused to testify and to an
swer a question which he said did not criminate hint
self. After some hours, he sent a message to the Court
that he wits willing to answer all question pot to him.
He was then put nn the stand, and testified to many
important facu. So that with a few such witnesses
we shall at no distort day put a quietus upon that
agrarian spirit in this county. This rebellion flour
ishes well in our manor towne, as ignorance is wgenial
soil for its growth. Last evening a messenger arrived
from Albany informing us that in the noon cars of
to-day, the Burgess Corps, with 300 stand of arms,
is edition to their own, would come to ear aid, and
if-we can fetch the first of January, I shall then have
full faith in our new Governor elect as ha will {,robe-
lily at once declare these several counties in a state of
insurrection, and quarter troops in every infected dis
trict.. Our shetilf received a message this morning
and from a reliable source, that the anti-renters were
personally notified last night in the town of Cogake to
bold themselves in readiness, at a minutes warn
ing to march to Hudson, fire the city and release the
prisoners."
Severe Sentener.—Henry Bowser, alias Henry
Boyd, a free colored man, from New Bedford, employ
ed on board the brig Cornelia. Captain Ricketson, be
longing to that port, was tried before the County Court
of Norfolk, on Thursday last, charged with enticing
and abetting the boy Tom, belonging to Mr J Redder,
of that town, to escape from his master. The bey had
been employed onboard, the Cornelia in fanning grain,
when the prisiouer persuaded 'biro to secret Mmself
on board, and famished him with provisions aAer he
was secreted. After the vessel left sbe rai l aground
on Crany Island flats, when on searching the 'vessel
she Captain discovered him, and immediately returned
And delivered him up to his owner. The prisoner
was sentenced te serve four yearn in the Penitentiary.
A Pirale.—The ship John Marshall. which wired
at New York on Tuesday, from Ro:tenlam. reports
having seen a very suspicious vessel. It is supposed
to have been a piratieal schooner which had boarded
a brig, (which was in sight) and intended to have board
ed the John Marshall. hal nut the latter made its es
cape in the night. The captain says,—"she hoisted

C.II.II.NET-51.110NG AND PRESIDENT-
M A KING.
It will strike most of out minders with surprise to
see, from the crptimi of this *nick, that there is some
comiertion between Cabinet-making sad President
making. Both will moose skit surprise to learn that
thi4 connection exist. only in the ertftil muchinations of
certain Arend whiffs, who are SOUCROCIA to WIC liii
sensions in our rank 4. The scheme of division in our
ranks Seelll4l to be thus—Mr Wright is to he held up
as the Northern Democratic candiditto for the Presi•
dewy. and Mr Daimon is to beheld op as the South
ern Democratic candidate. The jealousy which would
naturntly sprint up between the respective friends el
these two gentlemen, is the result from which whigism
calculates upon to its tank.. It is possible
that some democrats may be found soft enough to fall
into this snare: but there isnot , port oldie game which
will prove abortive, unless we ale grratiy mistaken in
the true character of the President elect. We refer
now to the conjectures and speculations as the probs-1
ble preference+ of Cal Polk as to his siteceirsor,mi they I
may he indicsited iq the selettion of his cabinet. If'
he should retain MrTtilboun, the scheme of the plot= I
ten is, thirst his retention is to be heralded as condo-
Ova of the President'4 preference us to the successor..
On the tithe; hand, if Mr Calhoun should not contio
se in lie Cabinet. and his place should he filled by
some distinguished Northern derneenu —then the in:!
ference to he drawn is, that the President has doelere' d
in favor of Mr iiiright us his snrcessur.

New Brunswick in trouble—Some of the Now
Brunswick people are getting rather warm, for win
ter weather, on the subject of timber en the public
lands. 1311 the *eters of the upper St John,. there
are many timber trespassers, and they, with their
friend's who supply them and will reap a profit, are out
quite fiercely, against the government taking any de
cisive steps to stop these proceedings. In the mean
time, says the Bangor Whig, the trespassers not being
restrained earn limits, by any 'permits,' came in con
tact with each other, and neithet being willing to give
up. they fought it out. At Baker's Brook, a few days
since, a pitched battle took place between two par- .
ties. One man's arm was broken near bill body. and
he was otherwise much injured, while nearly all re
ceived bruises and banged eyes. If they begin to fight
so early in the season; while lumber is plenty , they
'will bo likely to have sharp wotk by spring.

POLITICAL Matraas.—No ruination for 1843.
, The New York Tribitne save the whiz, of Gennealee
and Votes counties. of Ledyard, Cayuga Co., Fort
Plain. Muntgootery Co., and several other portions of
that State, have recently held Conventions to deride
on and indicate their future course. In every instance,
resolutions were unanimously adopted in favor of main
; taining the Whig Principles and the Whig Name, and
repudiating-all alliances inconsistent with either, or
with good faith toward any portion of their atiro- 1
rates. The Whigs of Vatetecounty nominated Henry
Clay as their candidate for President in 1848. Out
of this city, we blieve there aie just three Whig jour
! oafs in our State which are favorable to
two of them in Albany and one in Ulster county—not
one North or %Vest of A !hairy. So in Pentisylvniiin,
we notice some traces of Nativism in Pittsburgh, and
now other out of Philadelphia. In Ohio, nut a single
Whig journal inclines to Nativism, and the Senate
that State bus just disdained it by a vote of 34 to 1.
Sn is is. with the except hill of a few largo chies, through
out the Union. Out of one thousami Wbig journals
in the country, not twenty incline to Nativism. Re
flection hue reclaimed thousands a ho, in the first agony
of defeat resolved to enlist in the Native ranks. New
York City, which frrit fanned the flume of intolerance
ley thefatal error of our last Charter Election, will re
trieve her mistake, so far as may be, at the, election,
next :April. The great body of the Whigs will never
again he trapped as they were let month. One each
cxj el 'anent suffices them abundantly.
