The Antimasonie and Whig Meeting.
The Antimasonic
„and Wbig meeting at the
Court House, we are assured, ;was rather a curious,
affair. - " The meeting was addressed by Mr. HAMP
TON, of this city, and Messrs. Cooe en and SMT
SYM, of Adams county. Messrs. HAMPTON and
C'ooesa, it is said by those U-ho were present, ad
dressed those is attendance as antimasons and
'Whigs, but that Mr SzsrsEa did not say .Antiniason
once—his discourse, therefore, was for the benefit
of the "Whig friends" alone.
.We have aword or two to say in reference to what
we believe was the real object of this "first gun."
Mr. Cooenn, as iswell known, is a canddate for
Governor, and it -is fair, theMfore, to presume that
the object of the meeting was to give him an op
portimity of addressing his party friends in this
city. It is believed by many, too, that the Whigs in
tend to push aside Gen. Msnuis, and give the
nomination to Mr. Comma.: At the last election,
it will be recollected, the Whigs found it expedi
ent to urge the claims of the General; they then
extolled hint as a soldier of merit, and did not hesi
tate to declare him a "marve'lous proper man" to
fill the chair of State, but if we do not mistake
the "signs of the times" he is now to be given the
"cold shoulder," and Mr CoOper to take his place
as the standard bearer of the Whig party. T
friends of the General may bluster and rant
as much as they please, but they will be com.
pelled to acquiesce. Mr. Cooper, it is true, is
a much xounger man than General Markle,—
has not been tried on the battle field, but he is a
smooth sagacious lawyer, and will better serve
the•purposes of the Whig party than the West
moreland Farmer, as the General was called by
the whigs, during the campaign of 1844. Mr.
Hampton, we remember, was the ardent supporter
of Gen. Markle's nomination in 1844, and assured
the convention that he would receive a tremendous
majority west of the mountains,—we are now
greatly surprised to find him aiding a movement,
intended, as we believe, to push the General off
• the track.
Gen. Taylor and the Louisiana Committee.
The Committee appointed by the Legislature
of Louisiana to present the resolutions and thanks
of the General Assembly to General Taylor, ar
rive]. at MAtamoras on the, 18th inst., and were
presented to the brave old chieftain at 11 o'clock
on the Bth by Cel. Labuzan, one of the aids of
Governor Johnson.
On being presented to the General, his staff and
officers of the army, the Colonel and their staffs
who were invited to be present on the occasion,
Mr. Zacharie, chairman of the coalmine said:
"Gentlemen, I have the honor of presenting to
to you the resolutions and vote of thanks and the
act appropriating a sword which were unanimous
ly passed by the State of Louisiana, to you, your
brave officers and the army' under your command,
for the gallantry displayed by them in the battle
of the Bth and 9th of May.
"I am no orator, General, but My own heart,
and the heart of every Louishmian, approves of the
beautiful sentiments of these resolutions. In be
half of the State of Louisiana, I thank you and
your brave army for the additional lustre which
those glorious victories have shed upon American
arms."
To which the General, briefly and with much
emotion replied :
"My heart feels too deeply and sensibly the high
honor that has been conterred upon me, my of
ficers and men, to respond to your expressions of
gratitude and thank. I always felt assured that the
patriotic State of Louisiana would be among the
first to'rush to the assistance of our little army in
time of need.
"I well knew, as did also my officers and men,
that she was a gallant, brave and noble State;
that chivalry, noble daring and ardent patriotism
were her high attributes. Her volunteers have
readily abandoned . their homes and business, to as
slat us in the hour of danger. We feel a debt of
gratitude to them and to you.
"The generous and timely action of the Legisla
ture of Louisiana will never be forgotten by us; its
name will be embalmed in our hearts as a cher
ished memorial. We feel, that we have done our
duty; yet we canot but feel highly gratified to have
gained the appropriation of our fellow citizens.
"Together with the love of country, which is
common to us all, it is that approbation which
cheers and animates the soldier in the hour of bat
tle. Gentlemen, I am Unaccustomed to public
speaking; I therefore, in the name of my officers
and men, thank you and the patriotic State which
you represent for the honor conferred upon us."
Atthe conclusion of his:reply the General invited
the, committee and all present to a splendid colla
tion which he had ordered to be prepared for the
ocasion, and to which ample justice , was done.
Grit. ScoTT.—The Scott correspondence has
got to New Orleans, and comes back with hotter
comments than it took opt. The Picayune says—
uThere never was so signal an instance of [do de
se, as that done upon himself by Gen. Scott, in the
correspondence between himself and the Secretary
of war. Neither the Mexican fire in front nor a
fire from Washinieon in his rear, of which he
speaks in such deprecating terms, could have done
him half the damage he has done himself. It is
a clear case of spontaneous compustion—a col
lapse—an explosion—a bursting of the retort heat
ed, by vanity beyond the endurance of the most
fire-proof material's."
Grs. VEDA.—This Mexican General was at the
the last accounts sfill in New Orleans, though ru
mor had already placed him in Washington. The
Union says he has asked permission of the Govern
ment, through General Gaines, to leave New Or
leans and visit different arts of the Unites States,
and no doubt his wish kill be acceded to without
difficulty.
Like the Indian Chief Black Hawk, Vega will

,eoPle. 1 .
O> The New Haven Courier (Native) and New
Haven Herald (Whig) ituve been united,4nd will
be issued as formerly, morning and evening.
HORRIBLE AITAIR Nssavu.r.s.—At the
close of the performances at the circus on Satur
day night list, a young man by the name of Branch
was stabbed .to the heart by a Mr. Moore, and
expired inabout five or six minutes. The cause
of this deed grew out of a very trifling Natter.—
Moore had several companions; in addition to .the
death of C. Branch, his brother, K. Branch. was
badly wounded by the cut of a stone on the head,
which is not considered dangerous. Moore and
several others were knocked down duffing the affray.
No arrests had been made.
Cox.. Biusirsp.—Col. Belknap, '-'who command
ed the Bth; infantry, in the late , Victories, says the
N. Y. Herald, is the Lieu . t. Belknap who, at the
sortie of Fort Erie, during the last war, distinguish
ed himself by fighting hand to hand, and refused to
enter the sallied port until every one of his com
mand had:preceded him. He then escaped by cut
ting down the soldier who had pinned him to,tbe
wall with a bayonet!
cc? The last - stuped hizoax says the New Or
leans Delta, of which stupid people are guilty, is
to sign their nilities in the register of inns in the
towns through which they travel—Gen LaVega.
There axe new about a hundred personators
of Geri. La Vega—if such people are capa
ble of personating any one—travelling north
ward.
"John Dimond says the Boston Transcript, a
public character, well known as a negro dancer,
was fined $7 and costs, for blowing a cloud of
smoke in a lady's face, in Hanover street, on Sun
day last, and also $2 and costs for violating the
city by-law against smoking. Served him right.-
GONE TO THE WARR. The junior editor; of the
Tennessee True American says in his valedictory-.
I dove been seized with knock-some-Mexican.on

ed for the Rio Grande.
A liAtrz.zuLE Gzrr.—A Tennessean has a gift for
Vice President Dallas, which consists of a cane cut
from an aged hickory at the Hermitage. The head,
which is fine gold, contains a lock of hair of the
lamented Jackson.
BRITISH ABOLITION.—The negroes taken from
slavers on the African coast by British cruisers, in-
stead of being returned to their native places are
taken to the West India Islands and subjected to
the most severe kind of servitude.
0;:r Isn't it a pity says the Ohio Statesman,
that so pretty and elegant book as Mansfield's
"Life of Scott," should be spoird by a "plate of
Soups"
A Fier.—The Richmond Enquirer acknowl
edges that an infusion of a little Yankee industry
and capital into the arteries of Virginia, will pro
duce a beneficial effect.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer
LIFE ON THE RIO GRANDE.
In returning upon the Ben Franklin the other
evening, from a pleasant jaunt to Madison, Indiana,
we fell in with one of the recruiting officers lately
sent out from the Army of Occupation. We learn
ed his name to be .McDosaxtn—and as fair a
specimen of an American officer as any one would
wish to meet with. Small, but well-built up, and
evidently active, he walked the decks with the
quiet ease of one who had seen some service. We
fell into conversation, and enjoyed two hours talk
with him about our brave fellows in Mexico. He
had been in the Florida war, on the Rio Grande,
and taken part in the battles of the Bth and 9th of
May.
"It is a great mistake, - he said, among other
things. "to assert, as the paper's do, that these Mex
ican soldiers are cowards. When tried they have
always fought well—and, in the battles of the ttth
and 9th, with great bravery, considering the disad
vantages under which they labored. Except one
regiment—the Tampico Guards—they were mis
erably equipped, wretchedly armed, and worse dril
led. The country is covered, as you know, with
chapperkl and prickly pear, over which we had
great difficulty in marching in our :thick boots.—
Well, sir, the greater part of these Mexicans had
nothing on their feet but sandals, with their legs
bare, and how they managed to march was a won
der to us all. In our fights with them, so long as
the firing continued, they would stand their ground
like men. It is only by charge of bayonets they
can be moved, and . you know, sir, very few of the
best disciplined soldiers in Europe can be brought
to stand that."
"Our men acted with great spirit in these fight
did they not?
"Yes, sir, on the 9th especially. In the fight of
the Sth it was somewhat more trying to the nerve.
The greater part was carried on with cannon, and
we were drawn'up in the line of battle, and had to
wait for hours anticipating a charge from an un
know force."
"Did you see anything of Old Rough and Rea
dy?"
"Yes—just after we had drawn up our eighteen
pounders, he came in front of us. The Mexicans
had been throwing their shot too high—most of it
falling among our train in the rear. They changed
and threw it as much too low, but one of their balls
came twisting in among the guns, and carried off
the foot of one of our oxen. 'There' said Gen. TAT-
Lo a, ' , you will have plenty of beef for supper, boys.'
At this we all laughed; upon which he added—Abut
come, they have been amusing us—let us amuse
them a little.' We gave them a round of grape
without producing any effect. Gen. Te.rima or
dered us to try round shot. We did so. One of
our officers levelled a gun with great care, and
fired. We saw the men and horses whirling to the
right and left, and a way opened wide enough to
drive a wagon through. Every shot after told in
the same way, untill the grass caught fire. This
was another event greatly to the disadvantage of
the Mexicans. The wind blew tne fire and smoke
directly in their faces—and under cover we charged
up and drove them from their ground.
It was on the 9th our men acted with the great
est spirit. Every one seemed trying to get ahead
of the other. It was almost impossible to keep
them together, so anxious were they to get into
the Mexicans—hand to hand."
Sergeant MCDONNALD here related to us several
instances of individual bravery, which we must
defer to another article, our space not permitting
here a detail of them."
"I did not witness, he went on to relate, "the
charge of Captain M►r. Our company had
marched too far to the right, in the chapperal, and
when we broke into the road again the charge had
just' been made, and the guns silenced. Some of
Mars's troops were returning in squads. We
were old accquaintances, having often before bis
votiched together, and seeing us, they began cheer
ing. We knew then the game was up, and dashed
on, so as to. be in at the death. The Mexicans
lekeverythiiig in their . flight-even their guns
MEiM
and swords. We found a supper nicely cooked ,
or cooking. Stakes -before the fire, and and coffee
boiling. As we had nothing to eat all day, I told
the men to fall to, but an officer immediately or
dered them to desist. Each• man then gathered.
up something—the queerest plunder any une ever
saw—and, with Mexican banneris and lances wa
ving marched on towards the fort. Our men in
the fort took us for a number of the enemy, and
came very near doing what the Mexicans failed in,
by- giving us two shots."
We asked if it was true that the Mexican army
was in tiesitarving condition generally represen
,
tee..
He said that was certainly not the case, for they
found any quantity of provision in their camp; and
it would have been a wonder had it been otherwise.
The Mexican soldier generally puts a quantity of
corn and salt in his knapsack; for emergencies, as
a sort of last resort. Our . men findirr , some,
thought their soldiers' were fed on such food alto
gether.

lace, of the U. S. Army, recently from Matamoras,
came passengers on the West Wind yesterday.

ry died intestate, leaving a widow, viz: Mary and four
children, (one born after his death,) namely Rosan
na, sixteen years old since September last, James,
three years old last July, and Johh who is now about
four months old. That said John Wherry at the time
of his death WWI seized in his demesne as of fee of
and in a certain lot of ground situate in Allegheny
city in said county. It being that same lot of land
which is marked and numbered in a plan of lota laid
out by George Ledlie in Allegheny city, No. one
hundred and fourteen, which plan is recorded in Al
legheny county in Deed book vol 64, page, and is the
which George Ledlie and wife by deed bearing date
the 21st June, A. D. 1842, conveyed to the said John
Wharry, his heirs and aastnees. Ile was also pos
sessed of a certain lot which he had leased from S.
S. Shealds for a tavern of which some ten years are
yet to come, subject to one annual ground rent of
forty-two dollars. Said mentioned lot is situated in
the Diamond, Allegheny. That your petitioner
knows of no other real estate of the said John Whar.
ry, than that above described; that all the personal
estate whatsoever of the said John Wharry, so far as

praisement of the same hereto annexed that the
debts of the said John Wharry, deceased, amount to
the sum of five hundred and 94 dollars and 80 cts as
