SATURDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 22, WIS
- Cots crexace.—lVbether the whigs of Cincinnati
to/lowed the magnificent example of the whigs of this
city.-or whether it was a mere conicidence, arising
from the allisemding propensity of the whig party ,
for mean tricks and small potatoes, we cannot any— LIT'S SHOOT AHD FRIGHTS!! HIR!"--The most as

*big councils of that town. Like Mr Gt.r.sx, in this
city, the Hay Weigher in Cincinnati held the office
for many years—and discharged its simple duties
with the strictest care and fidelity. Like blr GLENN,
too, he was a poor man, and, we infer from the notice
of the proceedings in the Cincinnati papers, that he is
lux very well able to procure or pursue another calling.
As in the case of Mr GLENS, too, the proscriptive. ofi
the wittily , party, have been showing their teeth at him
for years, snarling savagely, and barking loudly when-,
everiarant election gave them hopes of carrying out
thee._ exalted and liberal views. But the tear of incur
ing the contempt of all right-minded people kept diens
in check, until the late election, and the defeat of the
_ "splendid Harry" moved them to compass an act of,
retaliation worthy of their great defeated leader.- 1
Thee, with desperate energy they went to work, and
accomplished their "great revenge"—then the Hay
Weighers of Pittsburgh and Cincinnati were made to
taste the bitter cup of retribUtion—theysavre made to
feel how "sharper than a serpent's tooth it is," to stir
up the slumbering vengeance of the great, the long
suffering, the magnanimous whig party. If a Demo
crat says to a whig, -You are again defeated,—your
Bankism, and other corrupt principles, your tergiver
sations and your intrigues have broken you down"—
the wßigcan retort, "What of that? Have we not
turned ont the Hay Weighers of Pittsburgh end Cin
cinnati!" If a Democrat says that "Clay's Bargain
and Sale in '24—his needless bitterness to Jackson,
his inconsistencies on the Texas question, have
%Ticked and ruined him"—the whigs will reply,
"Have we not revenged him? Hav'nt we pot down
Mr qt,rea and the other Hay-Weigher as low as Mr
CLar is?" Who will not say, in view of this Coin- ,
cidenas, &tithe whig puny has a right to the prefix
..„.,,,e,-"w"--who will not say that they evince a 'uni
venal' leanieg &Doman and petty proceedings?
EXIIITHER IFFACTe or POLK'S ELICTION.—A cot
ton factory, the first ever built in that city, has just
been put in operation in St Louis, 510. It is confined
to the spinning of cotton-yarn, and now turns out daily
100 bundles. It gives employment to 25 hands now,
and it is expected that more spindles will be started ,
end more bands employed, in a short time. This is
not t- very large concern, to.be-sure, but it is a very
large undertaking if any reliance were to be placed
on the predictions of the panic whigs. And then, the
folks of the "Queen city" have been starting a factory
too. 'A mill has been recently erected in Cincinnati,
for the Manufacture of cotton cloth, styled the "Frank
lin Factory." It is 150 feet long by 51 feet wide,
eand - fire-stoties high. Some idea of the business to
be tarite . 41 on in this establishment may be formed
frosts the fact that 240 looms and 9.311 spindles will
be-constantly kept in operation. It is expected that
for slisesand yards of sheeting will be made i•teh
meet*. At-Ibis rate, regularly kept going, it will turn
not about two millions of yards of sheeting per annum;
and to do this it will employ three hundred persons.
The proprietors of this extensive factory are Messrs.
Harkness, Strader Sc Fosdick.
So much for the havoc Pulk's election has made
upon manufactures. Now let us see what it has done
towards ruining commerce. A New York paper of
this week tells us of a large fleet of vessels arrived
there, between Sunday and 51onday forenoons, consi.-
ring of 11 ahips, 13 barks, 18 brigs, 40 seism.,
sloops—Total, 110. Among them two packets from
Liverpool, one from Havre, and one from London.
It wee a fortunate circumstance, that a powerful rain
fell on Saturday night, which destroyed the ice and
rendered the bayand harbor navigable and safe. At
no time within the previous 10 days , could these yea
st& have reached the city, but now the ice has distil).
peered, and they all came up to the dock in safety._
Sunday morning presented a magnificent sight, the
bay and harbor appeared studded with vessels of every
sine, all crowding to the city. The pilots had a rich
barren; there were more vessels than pilots, and ma
ny of the coasting crafts came up without having been
Weeded,
The large number of arrivals at this port will swell
the collections of the revenue the coming week far bi
youd that of the past two weeks. The receipts for
the week ending February Isth, were $140,394 54.
The ships just in have very full cargoes. The freight
list of the Montezuma was £2000; and that of the
Hoseins £1257. The other ships had equally good
lists, and judging from the importations for the com
ing spring will equal those of 1841. The Custom
House presented a most busy scene on Monday.—
Twenty-emu vessels, from domestic Southern ports, .
took out permits to land, and twenty-three from fur
.eign ports.

J. T. FULTON, late an inn-keeper in Lewiston, has
strangely absented himself—it is rumored for the dou
ble purpose of avoiding his debts, and getting rid of a
prosecution for illegal voting. He was an importation
from Canada originally, and in his zeal to promote the
whig cause at the last election, created a very strong
necessity for going back again.—Lockport Democrat.
[lf the Whigs could succeed in their efforts to an

to escape the penalty of his villanous labors in the

It hes long been a subject of surprise, that gas has
never been introduced in our Light Houses. Aside
from the very insufficient illuminative power possessed
by oil, and the difficulty during the intense cold of

that oil should have long since beem discarded, from
the mere consideration of the danger from a failure of

CHIN C3t SURGIRT. A work has iecently been re
published in London, giving an account of along resi

prejudices and institutions of the Celestial Empire.—
The book is written by a learned Catholic Priest—
Father Ripe, and was fast published in Naples, being
thought worthy of a translation. Many portions are
intensely interesting and fell of instruction. We quote
the Father's curious account of the mode of treatment
to which he was subjected by a Chinese surgeon, for
a severe welded be received in his head by a fall from
his horse:
"When I recovevied my sense., I band myself in a
house, bat everything appeared dark and indistinct,
and 1 felt as if 1 bad fallenfrom my horse two months
before. The Emperor sent ins a Tartar surgeon, for
he and his Court were fully persuaded that for falls
Tartar surgeons were better thane And, to
confess the truth, although the mode of treatment was
of a barbarous description, and sone of the reenqdies
appeared useless, I was cured in a very short time.—
This surgeon made me sit up in my bed, placing near
the a large basin filled with water, in which be put a
thick piece of ice, to reduce it to a freezing point.—
Then stripping me to to-waist, he made me stretch my
neck over the basin, and, with a cup, he continued
for *good while to pour the water on my neck. The
The pain cataisti by this operation upon those nerves
which take their rise from the pia•mater, was sir
great and Insufferable, that it seemed to me un
equalled.
The surgeon said that th's would staunch the blood
and restore me to thy senses, which was actually the
case, for in a short time my sight became clear, and
! my mind resumed its powers. He next bound my

he supposed had been displaced. It is true, bowever,
thatafter this second operation my head felt more free.
A third operation was now performed, during
which hetnatie me, still stripped to the waist, walk in
the open air, supported by two persons; and while
thus walking be unexpectedly threw a bowl of cold

the sun looked down as pleasantly on one as on the

round the grave of the rich man. They were both e

of the destinies to which they had passed; of that
state in which temporal distinctions exists not; tem

the circumstances which surrounded this life never find
admittance. Then thedistinctions of time appeared
indeed as an atom in the sunbeam, compared with
