THOS. PHILLIPS & WM. A. SMITH, EDITORS
PITTSBURGH, TUESDAY JULY 1, 1845
Erne Garotte attempts to sustain its falsehood
about divisicn in the Democratic ranks, by raking up
letters aid remarks of disappointed applicants for of
fice. But, unfortunately for it, the persons brought
forward to sustain its misrepresentations are, or wet e,
opponents of the democratic party, and as long as
they thought whiggery had a chance of success, were
active in reviling the men now in power.
Mr yen. Ness, ene of its witnesses, is an accom
plished political trimmer, who by impressing the late
administration with a proper knowledge of his strong
hostility to Mr Van Buren, induced Mr Tyler to give
.him office, and by a very adroit summerset into the
democratic ranks, he expected to secure hmself in his
comfortable birth. But when the prop.'r time for ma
'king the appointment of Collector in New York arri
ved, Mr V. N. found that his cunning could not save
Whim; the office was given to a good, uniform democrat,
and our modern Vicar of Bray found that political
trimmers were nut favorites with Mr Polk's adminis-
The next witness the Deacon calls up, is a Major
Lewis, who has for many years past held an office at
- Washington city, and was noted fur his bitter opposi
tion to democratic men and measures. According to
the account published in the Gazette, the administra
tion had a suspicion that he would not hesitate to be
tray the secrets of the government to a foreign power,
land he was, very propel ly, removed, and his duties en
trusted to a new man, whose honesty was undoubted—
Gen. McCsi.Ls, of Kentucky.
It is thus shown than all the evidence the Gazette
has of bad feeling in the democratic ranks, is the howl
ing of whigs that have been kicked out of office, be
cause they were not deemed - deserving or trustworthy.
The fact that these men permitted their grievances
to get into the public pi lids. is sufficient evidence that
they were not good democrats; as it proves conclusive
ly that they were more anxious to grasp a portion of the
loaves and fishes than to exert themselves in the ma in
lettanes of correct principles. They have held office
ender several administrations, entertaining different
political opinions, and they were the pliant parasites
of all. Had Mr Clay been elected, they were as rea
dy to shout his praises and to swear eternal fealty to
his measures, as they were to cringe and beg for favors
from Mr Polk. But their unitive* were properly ap
preciated and they had to walk Gilt. We have thus
briefly "digested" the Gazette's pros f of want of har
mony in our party, and we think that all our political
friends will agree with us that if the Deacon has no
stronger evidence to sustain his charge than the gt owls
of cashiered whigs, he had better turn his attention to
adjusting the many little difficulies raw exist
among the factions of the pat: 10 which he belongs,
at present.
THE Gen. M. Bins.—The facts in regarl to the
accident to the Revenue Cutter. Geo. M. Bibb, have
at last been ascertained, and we are glad to note that
nothing has transpired which could in any way impair
the confidence of the Government in Pittsburgh Me
chanics, nor to render Pittsburgh a less desirable point
for the construction of Iron Ships. It is now settled
that the sinking of the Bibb was not occasioned by any
defect in her workmanship—that not a drop of water
-tame into her by the fault of the contractors. It is al
so well ascertained that there was abundance of water
for her to run, and that her bottom was not injured
by contact with the river bed, as was hinted by some
who hesitate at no assertion that may be i , juriuus to
the interests of Pittsburgh.
We do not presume to pass upon the merits of the
machinery in the Bibb, although we have heard much
said about it. If the plan is defective, however, and
if its defects were the cause of the accident, the fault
doss not lie at the door of the Mechanics here, who
executed their work by accurate drafts, prepared and
sent on by the Government. It is said the water
which sunk the vessel came in at the shaft-hole, where
the packing hail worked out. If this be so, it would
•certainly seem to be a slight defect, and easily reme
died; but however alight it may be, the builders of the
vessel are not accountable. The Iron vessels built
here will not lose by comparison with any built in the
country—dime is no difficulty in taking the vessels
built here to the sea, and the late accident has not in
the least affected the conviction of all unprejudiced
minds, that Pittsburgh is among the best, if not the
very best. as well as the cheapest place to build Iron
Semis in the United States.
Tut Fungi net, SOLEMN 'V IN NEW YORE', IN non
OT of JACKSON, took place on Tuesday lost, and was
signally indicative of the deep love and respect which
all classes of people feel for the venerated Hew. The
News say.; it eras worthy of the memory of the great
and good man who was its object, and of the people by
whom it was paid. The whole day wan given up to
it by the whole city. Very few stores were left open.
The banks were closed at 1 o'clock, the Custom House
at 11, and the Poet Office the whole du y, except from
8 to 10 A. M. and from one to 2 P. NI. All the
Courts adjourned over. The entire population were
abroad on the line of the procession, lining the stoops
and sidewalks, and crowding the windows from roof
-to ground Thor, while numbers unparalleled on any
former similar occasion thronged the procession itself.
It is difficult to determine accurately the number of
men in a long procession of,this kind, marching with
irregular degrees of denseness. The space actually
covered by it was casput five miles. At one point
Where a simultaneous count was made by five per.
sons, the average of their observations, when about
half the precession had passed, was 20,000. And
the extreme heat of the day prevented thousands
from joining is, who would not otherwise have *l
- themselves to be excluded
Weareextremely gratified to be dble to state that it
was no,parlizan demonstration. No small proportion
of those whetlitisaormed out to take i part in the funer
al honors to the vewt Hero and Patriot, wereof the
political party who had opposed the administration of
the President. By the particular direction of the com
inittee of Direction, all in political devises were strict
ly excluded from the banners of the various Associa
diens. The general feeling pervading the whole corn
-the exception, perhaps, of a,oumber,
'happily small, of the more bitter bigots of partizanship
-of whom a Fesaenden is a sample, and a Tribune a
-worthy organ—which is represented by the follow
ing brief Lines .of the Journal of Commerce of yea-
[cedar.
"All feel that a great man has fallen. He might
have had feuus __ eay, h e h a d f a ults, (who has not) but
they were for transcended by his virtues. Among all
the charges brought against him in the heat of party
excitement, we do not recollect aver to have seen it
denied that that he was an non EST MAN. He loved his
country. By the moral energy of his character he
swayed its teeming millions, ashy the wand of e nchant
ment. No man, except 'Washington, ever exercised
such a mighty influence over the American people.—
And in the main, be exercised it vi isely. Considering
the energetic character of his adyknistrution, he made
but few mistakes. His iroa will generally willed what.
was right. Posteritiwill du him honor."
Many a grey bead was bowed in a deep and tearful
sorrow yesterday, as memory retraced the thrilling as
' sociations which clustered round the name, now no
more to be heard but in the catalogue of the great de
parted worthies of our country'shistory.
Mr Butler's Oration, though prepared at extremely
short notice, (that gentleman not having had it in his
power to approach the task before Saturday,) is an
elegant, -eloquent and feeling performance. It occupi
ed more than an hour in the delivery, but was listened
to with an unflagging interest by all who could ap
proach within hearing. It was delivered with an im
pressive solemnity and dignified grace, appropriate to
the occasion.
"THE AMERICAN T.•eta."—We received a copy
of this new Native paper, but it was carried of be
fore we bad time to take more than a hasty glance at
its contents. It is very neatly printed, and contains
n great amount of reading matter, which will no doubt
be highly interesting to those who believe in the anti
republican 4,3c-trines which it advocates.
THE RACE COURSE ACCIDENT.-Mr Garrick Sharp
one of the men injured at the Camden Race Course,
by the falling of the stand, had his leg amputated on
Saturday. Mr. Perry O'Dauiel is recovering steadily.
For a long time—two weeks, we believe,—he did no t
speak, from the effects of a concussion of the brain.
One death has resulted from the accident at the Cam
den races—that of Mr Mains.
"ALL A Hustnno."—The Miner's Journal alluding
to the great improvement made in the manufacturing of
Bar Iron directly from the Ore, by a Mr. Green, of
Now Jersey says:—"We have since seen a specimen
of the Iron, which was beautifully prepared to deceive
—but falling into the hands of an old Iron Master in
this neighborhood, he took the liberty of putting it to
the test of the hammer. As he predicted, it turned
out to be but little better than common pig metal.—
Better Iron was manufactured on the same principle
before Mr. Clay took out his patent in England. The
great Iron interest does not rrquirelittnibugiittn to sus-
lain it."
ag'General Scott, whose journey southward from
West Point excited the apprehensions of some of the
New York papers on the subject of war, is now on a
visit to Richmond with his family.
THE CAMDAS RACE COURsE.—Judge Carpenter,
of New Jersey, at the opentng of the court on Tues
day. at Camden, brought to the notice of the grand
jury the race course, and the lamentable disaster by
which the life of one man was lost, and the pet sons
of sr' oral others were sea toasty injured. He recom
mended that a bill be found spinet the managers of
the course fur manslaughter. The inquest wilt NA,-
ably act up nthernaiter.
Ft onto A. —The Floridian of the 11th states that,
so far as the official and other accounts base been re
ceived of the result of the late election, Mooscicy liar
498 majority over Call, for governor ; and Levy 1,03'2
majority over Putnam, for congress. The majority on
joint ballot is 22 VOWS, and a mijority of both houses.
A Gritssr Itt•Lxrox.—The Boston Transcript
says:--"The new cotton spinning frame just Fit in
operation at Lowell, we understand, is creating quite
an excitement among manufacturers. It is said to
require hut ono half the power, and will make more
yarn, and of more even twist, at about twe-ihirds the
expense of the other kinds of frames in use."
AN INTERESTING GATHKRING.—Ninety-three revo
lutionary soldiers reside in Cayuga county, N. Y. In
the same county there are the widows of eighteen
deceased soldiers of the late war, who are pensioned
on account of wounds received. These veteran sol
diers are invited by came, in the last Auburn Journal,
to participate in the approaching, celebration of the
anniversary of our independence.
From the Spirit of the Agr
LIBEL CASE.
The readers of the Age will recollect that in Octo
ber last a paragraph, founded on a postscript to a let
ter from Mr Dill A Smith, (then on his way down the
river,) to his wife, was published, in which it was
stated that Dr Benjamin Tappan, of Steubenville, O
hio, had robbed and nearly murdered Mr Smith A
day or two after its publication, it was ascertained that
the person whom Mr Smith entreated with the letter
to put into the Stubenville Post Of some other
person—had broken the seal and forged the postcript
rtferted to. The Editor and the gentleman who
brought the matter to the otTi:e for publication denoun
ced the author of the forgery, and did all in their pow
er to repair the injury done to Di. Tappan. With
this, however, the Dr was not satisfied, but prosecuted
the Editor for a libel, and also brought a civil suit a
gainst him for damages. The first case was tried in
January last, end notwithstanding the facts shove sta
ted were clearly proven, the Editor was found guilty;
and on Saturday morning, the 28th June, received the
following sentence from Judge P•Triet
"H. W M IDDIATON t—You have been indicted, tried
and found guilty of a libel and Dr. Benjamin 'Tap
pan.
"From the evidence on the trial, it clearly appear
ed that in making—(in the paper which you edited)
—the publication complained of, you had been yourself
deceived and imposed on. As soon as yarn discovered
this, and that the matter charged against Dr Tappan
was a sheer and wicked fabrication by some base, ma
lignant and anonymous slanderer, you did every thing
in your power to repair the injury, by subsequent
publications, in which you expressed your regret and
denounced the trick arid itnpesture that had been prac
tised.
"At the trial, the counsel for the commonwealth sta
ted to the jury that all that would be asked for, in the
event of a conviction, wonid be a nominal sentence.—
This was used as an argument to the jury.
' Thera is a civil action pending against you, in
which the prosecutor claims damages for the injury
done.
" - Under these circumstances the court do not feel
called upon to impose a severe sentence. The sen
tence-is thatyou pay a fine of $5 to the Commonwealth;
that you pay the casts of prosecution, and stand corn
- mitred till this sentence is complied with."
The Ens and costs were immediately paid by the
Defendant: •r 4 as be has friends in this State, Vitgin
ia, Maryland, Kentucky, 'Ohio and Indiana, before
whom be would like the facts placed, he very respect
fully asks his old brethren of the press, who see prop
er to mention the matter, to give this statement in
full, and send him a copy of their respective papers:
the favor asked will, but in a more agreeable way he
trusts, be cheerfully reciptecated whenever in his pow
er. R. W. M.

AIRIC AN HOSPITALUTT.-A Dinner Party—An
officer attached to the U. S. African Squadron, wri
tin to the Newark Advertiser, says:—
"We have now been 4tere just one week.—Monday
last the Commodore, Captain and three other officers
and myself. dined by invitation with the wife of the
'Governor, (Mrs. Roberts)ite being absent. We had
a very excellent dinner, several courses; silver forks,
and handsome fine napkins. The Commodore sat op
posite Mrs. R. at the table, the Captain on her right,
I on her left; two blacks completed the company, one
on either hand of the Commodore. This is the first
time I ever partook of the hospitality of the African
race. But there was nothing in the matter or man-
I ner to offend the most fustidious MAUI. The Gover
nor's wife is really a pretty woman. She was genteel
ly dressed, free from affectation, and we soon forgot her
color. They talked of the Indies and gentlemen of
the lower orders of society, &c."
INTERESTING EIHIDITIOII. - It is the intention of
the Managerof the Alexandria Museum, T. Mountford
Esq., to exhibit in the cities of Balt miore, Philadelphia,
New York and Boston, during the present summer or
full, the personal relics of Washitugton,.which were
deposited in that institution by his executors, provided
proper arrangements can be made. Ho was vrumpt
ed to thi< intention by the earnest request of many dis
tinguished residents of those cities, who have visited
the Museum and witnessed them.
PrWe clip the following beautiful tensatks From
an article in the Picayune announcing the death of
Gen. Jackson.
In this city the light of heart are sad and the thought
less grave. Little children quit their pastimes in mys
terious terror as it wore to wonder at a calamity they
do not comprehend. All miss something, every body
has lost something. A friend, a benefactor, an oppo
nent that cannot be spared; the pride of one, the glory
of another, and the admiration of all; the successful
statesman, the triumphant general, the stern patriot is
gone, and there is no other. He was needful to all,
and there is no one who does not feel his death as a
personal loss.
IT the gay, the young, the many who knew him on
ly frorn his acts—and of these a moiety were in politi
cal feud with him—if all are touched by his taking a
way, albeit in the fullness of years, what must they feel
who followed his banner to the big wars? There will
be solemn pageants in token of the public sorrow; but
a darker pall shrouds the hearts of the survivers of his
glorious battle-fields than the sable drapery that deep
ens t.',e gloom of his funeral cortege. The drum that
was heat in reveille on the morning of the Bth of Jan
uary 'l5, will be carried along the solemn pageant; its
muffled notes will fall upon the ear, but they who
heard it when it woke an army upon a fearful su mmons
will not heed it now, for their hearts heat sadder than
it. They will follow, those of them who have strength
to do so—the old ensign as it is borne along the streets
its rags and shreds held together by the trappings of
woe, but with what other emotions will it fill their
minds than those it inspired when it fluttered in the
early dawn as chiding the tardy gaited hours that kept
back the clash of arms. They were impatient then,
too, but now they are bruised and worn like it. The
voice that hade it be unfurled over the array of freedom
is hushed forever, and they who conquered beneath its
folds are meek, and few and full of grief.
TRIAL OF THE MONSTER GUN
On Friday, and again on Saturday, the monster gun,
recently manufactured at Messrs. Faucets, Preston &
Co's foundry, in this town, for the American vi sr
steamer Princeton, was repeatedly tested on the sands
about three miles beyond Waterloo. The gun win con
veyed from the foundry to the place selected for the
trial at about four o'clock on Friday morning, when
very few of the inhabitants were astir is the streets,
About half-past five o'clock it passed through Bootle,
almost unobserved, most of the good people of that
locality being in the enjoyment of their morning dreams
at the time. It was drawn by nine horses. On ar
riving at its temporary destination it was firmly im
bedded in the sand, and the muzzle, which was pointed
out to sea, was slightly elevated in a line above the
surface of the water. The first ball, weighing 21916.,
was then ..driven home;" 301 b. of powder was poured
into the touch-hole, and the first shot was fired •t 10
o'clock, in the presence of about 500 spectators. The
result was most satisfactory, The teport was deafen
i•ig, and was distinctly heard nine miles off. At the
distance of about three miles, as nearly as could be
judged, the ball was seen bounding on the surface of
the water, occasional) , dipping and springing up a
gain, until at length it became wholly hut to view.—
The second was the trial shot, Two balls. each
weighing 2191 b ,were then ' driven home," aod 4516.
of powder wes put in. This shot was equally satis
factory. The report, of course, was terrific, but the
gun withstood the shock, and thereby proved that it
had been manufactured on a principle, and with a ma
terial, which render "bursting" elmast, if not altogeth
er, an impossibility.
A great number of single shots, with bells of 219
MN. each.were fired during the afternoon of Ftiday,
and the whole of Saturday, with the likesucressful re
sult. We understand the gun will be shortly shipped
by a vessel fur America, there to be taken onboard the
war steamer for which it was manufactured.

AMERICAN CHARACTER.
NFAL, in the chit-chat. of his "Saturday Gazette.'
speaks as follows of energy and originality of the A
The American—of A Ileghanin or Yankeedeoilledom
—that restless wiry man, balancing himself upon two
legs of his chair, in straw hat turned up behind, and
with his pedal extremities 100 far through his pinta

—has a trait—the result doubtless of his parentage—
the confluence of the energetic and enterprising of all
nations, nourished into luxuriance by the effect of in
stitutions—a trait which distinguishes him from oilier
people. Observe now, as he lodges his heels higher
than his heal. Would you cramp him by precedent,
or shackle his actions by the control of rule! Not a
moment will elapse before his limbs may he wreathed

on the rail, or lies extended on a bench, in an endless
variety of experiment in regard to reedit ie. fur repose.
If he smokes, what a power of suction—if he chews,
whet an energy in the iteiformnnee; and when he eats,
how prodigious the saving of tone!
It is impossible, you see, to east him in a mould—
