• Tn reference to communications which may ap
pear in this paper, we have one or two remarks to
make: We will insert none without the name of
the author being first made known to 119 and
when inserted, must always be taken as express
..: sive of the views of the writer, and not the editor
of this paper, unless the views so expressedere ed
.- • . itorially remarked upon and approved.
-. .:-'I:.F.;;.
The public works of the state have certainly
been very judiciously and economically managed
by the present efficient Board of Canal Commis
sioners. The Canals of the state, it will bereeol
lected, were much injured last spring by high
water, and it was then generally believed that for
the season, they would yield but little • more reve_
nee than would-be re sired to make good the dam
age done and keep th!works in repair. The Ca
nal Board, however, with commendable promptness
and zeal commenced the repairs, and by untiring
and well directed exertions, soon removed every
obstacle to their navigation, and we are now as
sured that the amount of canal tolls for 1846, will
. •
actually exceed the amount collected in 1845.
The whips are now extremely anxious to defeat
the re-election of Mr. FOSTEII, the President of the
Present Board of Canal Commissioners. Against
Mr. Fosrsu, as. an officer, they have not, and can
not, urge a single well founded objection, but still
they are endeavoring to make him responsible, be
cause a Democrat, for the passage of the Tariff of
3846. What influence can a Canal Commissioner
exercise on the Tariff question? What connection
can the Canal Board have with the action of Con_
grass on' a great national question? The people
will enquire into the official conduct of Mr. Fos
Tan before voting, and if they find that he is wor
thy, of their confidence will sustain him, and the
!efforts of the whigs, to hold him resposible for the
action of Congress on the Tariff will, by them, be
!treated with contempt and scorn.

Rail Road Iron—the Whigs.
1
The editor of the Gazette has at length attempt
-
lel to justify the vote given by the whig Senators,
in favor of the bill to refund and remit duties on
Railroad iron in certain cases, but the effort is in
deed very unsatisfactory. The assertion of the 1
Gazette, that 4 .the object of the bill was not to ad
mit any - more , Railroad iron, but to remit duties
02 iron already admitted," is shown to be false by
the remarks made by the several Senators who par- i
ticipated in the discussion. If Messrs. Calhoun,
Dayton and A Orlon, correctly understood the
I provisions of the bill, then are we entirely correct
! in the views which we expressed some days since,
;
and the editor of the Gazette is in error. We ap
pend the remarks of the Senators above named, for
! the information of our readers:
I
Mr. Calhoun said 'that he had been informed on
reliable authority that this would not injurious
! ly,effect the iron establishments of this country as
they were not in a condition to supply the dolma:it fen
railroad iron.
Mr. Dayton was sorry to differ with his friend
from Maine on any subject, but in this instance he
was constrained to look the question before the Sen
ate in au opposite light to that in which he [Mr.
Ev-alss) regarded it." o .lt was no new question ' and
lie (Mr. D.) had on more than one occasion been
called upon to meet it. The subject was to be re
garded 'in two aspects—in the first place as it up
pertained to the treasury of the United States; and
in the next place, as it rdated to tlw domes:ix man
ufactures of the country. Although he did not pro
fess to be indifferent to the first consideration; yet
perhaps gentlemen opposite would feel more inter
! est in it r and 'therefore he commended it to their
particular notice. . A very considerable SUM would
be thus taken from the treasury. The question of
the senator from Michigan [Mr. Cass] was very
- pertinent and proper. lie seas at a loss to know
why this iron should be regarded a "raw material,"'
and as such a proper subject of exception from duty.
if the argument was that . it was right and proper vt
this way to cheapen the means of transportation, he
would ask where were they to stop?. Why stop at this
' or that year?
Mr. Atherton then went on to remark that there
'was no limitatioaas to the quality of fail. The
bill of last session contained a proviso with regard
to the weight of the -rail for the exemption of
which the bill was franied. -It has been regarded
. as a matter of much importarree that the heavy T
rail should be laid down by companies. In the
present bill there was no such limitation' or re
.sanction. He'would,also observe that this bill re
mitted the duties on rails imported cor.thuurpose
of replacing, others. There was no provision :T
-s:riding companies from obtaining a' remission .of
duties on rails imported for the purpose' of re pia.-
tin,7 rails which.they,had taken up. It did not
apply strictly - and solely to the rails originially
laid. This bill appeared to be freed front all re.
erietions whatever. He did not wish M detain
the Senate by-aby extended remarks, and would
. only refer, in the most cursory manner, to, one or,
; . two obServations urged by the Senator from Maine
[Mr. Evans] in favor of the bill. It was contend
ed that the railroad companies ought to be placed
on an equal footing with the act of .1841 Since
that tinie, however, the price of iron had been ve
ry much reduced. Witb the duty it now 'cost no

ELIZABETH, Aug. '2O,
Mn. EDITOR :—llappening in this village to
lay, I was induced to attend a meeting ut th,
Whigs, at which Me.ssrs. Hampton, Bigliam, am
other Whig and Anti-Masonic catididates were •
attendance. The meeting, considering the favor
ableness of the weather, was small, not over 10t)
' being in attendance. After the meeting was or
ganized, Mr. Hampton took the stand and spoke
for about one hour and la half, as he iiiinselt
said. in a rambling and disconnected manner,
touching upon the arious questions of the day,
particularly the Tariff. He asserted that the tariti
of 1812 was repealed—that/err trade was now the
law of the laud—that he had attended 01 cr one
hundred meetings in 1844, in all of which he had
seen banners bearing the inscription of urol
la-s, and the Tariff of '42," did not say whether
they were Whig or Democratic flags.] Ile as
serted that the people of Pennsylvania were de
ceived by the leaders af the Democratic party, from
James Buchanan down, and that they—the whigs
were the only party who could be trusted to fulfil
their promises. All this was about what I expect
ed from this Sidi-Masonic NVliig candidate for ccal
gress. In fact I will do Mr. Hampton the justice
to say that his speech on this occasion was more
free from the common slang ofhis party than any 1
have ever heard him make. ;
I cannot refrain however from noticing one very
peculiar characteristic of Mr. H.'s speech. Hail
a stranger been present and not have been inform
ed of the politics of the speaker, he would, without
a doubt, have supposed him to have been a rank
I Abolitionist, of the "siraon pure . ' Dirney school.
He contended throughout his whole speech that
slavery—and a desire to perpetuate it—was the
end and aim Mille present administration: Hespoke
of that institution as being a curse to the ei untry,
and left the impression upon the minds of the in
credulous and unthinking that the Whigs wereop
pased to slavery, and that no member of that party
would, nor indeed had anything to do with it.—
In this, however, he but followed in the wake of
the immaculate editor of the “Gazette."
It would be impossible, Me. Editor. to mention
all the various things alluded to by Mr. 11. Buf
fire it to say, that yourself was noticed at length,
but in such a good humored manner, that hail You
been present, you could not have taken any of
fence.
Mi. IL closed his speech:by calling on the 'peo
ple to make the tariff the test in the election of
Canal Commissioner. He did so, he said, because
if Mr. Foster was re-elected Ritche" would
claim it as a free trade victory.
Mr. Bighorn followed, but what he said I know
not; not being much preirpssessed in Savor of
'that gentleman's style of speaking, I left the ground.
A good many Democrat's were present, as a ru-.
mor was current in the country that Mr. Allland
less would be in attendence. Much anxiety is ex
pressed by many to bear him, I hope he will grati
ify them.
The meeting was the most orderly I ever iwit
nessed—tbere was not one single demonstration of
applause throughout the whole speech nor. at its
close!!! . F. 11.,C.
P.S.—I have - just heard that a meeting wag held
this afternbon, at which a resolution W.. 8 passed
inviting Messrs. .?11 Candless and Black, to address
the Democrati of this township, at their earliest
convenience. F. H. C.

Faro / ;an Corn Track.—London.—The sale of .
home grown Wheat during the week ending July
31, has been slow; at the same time prices have
been pretty well supported. The transactions in
foreign were to a eery limited extent, purchasers
beingunwilling to give the terms asked. The sale
of American Flour on the 27th was dull. The
best brands of U. States were held for 2:ls per bar-1
rel. In consequence of the Potato disease havingi
increased rapidly in Ireland, there was some im I
quire - , Jill the date alluded to, for Indian Corn for
shipment to that place; but the high terms aoked
by holders checked business On the 20th ult. the'
trade for Wheat was slow at the prices current on
the 27th. Little business was transacted on the
;11st, and no change either of an advancing or.de
dining character could be noted. Throughout the
week terminating - July 31. Flour hung very heavily
on hand. The nominal top price of town-matte
has remained unchanged; but country marks es
well as the common sorts of the U. States, and
Canadian hate been parted with at rates which
would nOt have been accepted previously.
Lirrrpi,ol.—The visit of Prince Albert having
closed alb our public markets during the last three
days of the week ending August Ist, we have lit-1
tle to retiort since the sailing of the Great Western,l
The business transacted on the 25th ult. was very
limited: Wheat declined Oil to 3d per bushel, and
flour .34 per barrel from the quotations of that I
day setinight. Indian corn was:in demand Mr ex- I
portatitht to Ireland.
/carat i.thntricnn Produce Market —August 4.
During the early part of the past month, business
Was somewhat interfered with by the political
changes then taking place, and the change which
was expected in the commercial policy of the t My
eminent consequent thereon, but since the present
Ministers have been installed in office, with the
power evidently of being able to carry then meas
ures, there is a better feeling in trade matters, and
more disposition to enter on business engagements.
Money is also easier for bI_MiIICSS purposes, the
best paper being now discounted in London at tli.
In American produce there is little change to
note. In Beef there has been a eery large busi
ness doing, confined,however, to the inferior brands,
which having declined to low rates, a considerm l
ble demand has been induced for home (muslin - 1p-
Min.. The finest brands are still held for former!
rates, but without any immediate prospect of sale.
Pork is very dull, and to alb et sales low rates have
been stibmitted to. There is still some demand
for export at our last quotations. Of Bacon Mid
dles, we have had two arrivals-form New Orleans,
(about 121)) but the meat having become heated
and yellow, owing to the long confinement in
casks, it does not meet with a quick sale. Rams
of fine quality would sell at our quotations freely,
rmild and well flavored, and in good keeping con
ition.
Lard has been arriving less freely, and the stock
being now in smaller compass, holders term° to,,
take former rates. Fine qualities would command
our extreme quotations. Tallow also is in im
proved demand, and present rates are likely t be
well sustained during the remainder of the 71im
mer, with the prospect of some improvement in
price as the cold weather approaches. There base
been some arrivals of Cheese, but the quality being
inferior no criterion is aflbrded by the prices ob.
tained as to the future prospect of the market. A
large sale may be safely calculated on for prime
qualities. There is no Gutter neither Canadian or
United States, on the market. Greese Butter sells
at 3ss. to 4 Is.
Staves are without change in value. Wool is
in somewhat better demand, and the present pros
pects in the manfucturing, districts of Yorkshire
being rather improved, the article is likely to have
a good sale as the season advance. Nothing is
wanted to establish a steady demand in this mar
ketfor American wool but due attention to ,have
the shipments properly cleaned and classified.—
With continued heavy arrivals of foreign grain
and flour, principally from the United States and
Canada our Corn market has continued to decline
holders not being disposed to increase their stocks
in warehouse under the present prospect of an ear

The sales of flour have been very large, the
latest prices obtained 'bilrig 'Western canal 255,
Philadelphia and Baltimore 23s Gd to 245. N. Or

latter price only for extra qualities. United States
wheat has been sold as low as 58 10d for interior
qualities, tip to 6s Odfor choice samples. Indian
corn, under the pressure of heavy arrivals, declin
ed to 255 for yellow, and 298 for white, but has
recovered again, and is now saleable at 28s and
31s respectively. Corn meal also declined to 13s

Liverpool Market, Aug 4.--Iron—The iron, mar
ket continues steadily to improve, there is not much
speculation going on but there is a degree of heal.
thy firmnessahoutitwhiCh augers well for good and
steady prices for some time to come. -The pros
pect of having the .duty on English iron imported
into the United States is very much reduced. The:
large quantity that will be required'for' railways'
now' fixed upon being
constructed, and the increas- I
ed demand for shipbuilding purposes are causes'
sufficient to create confidence in the trade ' in ad
dition to these we have an easy money maricet, the
prospect of a good harvest and cheap provisions,l
and of a settled government. Present rates are fori

Wool.—Since the conclusion of the late public
sales of this article in London, which went off with
'more firmness 'towards the end, there has been a
feeling of more confidence gaining ground, and a
!greater degree of activity has been displayed both
here and in the consuming districts. This, we
I think; is in a great measure owing to the prospect
lof the government commercial measures being car
ried without much difficulty, so that trade will not!
be intercepted for the present by fresh elections.—
The expectation of the American tariffbeing car-
I
tied will also have a , very favorable influence on
our trade. There is no alteration to notice in pric
es, imports are small, and stocks light and inule
iquate to meet any extensive demand, but fresh sup
plies wilt be scion coming in more freely.

Liter front the Army.
The following extracts from a letter dated Mit
cnonAs, Aug. 18, to a citizen of Pittsburgh, toil
be found very interesting.
We left Galveston July Ist, at 3 o'clock in the
morning, and effected a landing at the Brazos iu the
afternoon 01 the •Jil, anti started immediately for
l'bitit I.. , abel—or Fort Polk, as it is now, called—
in a ffail boat, :net ran over itt half an hour; at this
plaice the acconmoulations strangers and travel
ers are not quite so good us at the St Charles Ho
tel, in Pittsburgh and New Orleans. You have to
eat out of doors and lodge wherever you can get a,
board to stretch your limbs upon, I was more for.
motile, however, than many others, having made
the acquaintance of a gentleman, suttler to the
troops at the Point, who furnished me with a
blanket and a share of his counter to sleep on the
night I remained their. The next morning 1, in
company with a Catholic Priest, (who is much of
the: gentleman,) who came o'er w ith us front N 0.
as Chaplain to the army, wenrout about sun rise,
to visit the grave of the . gallant Ringgold, which
is about a quarter of a mile from the fort. It is
enclosed by a fence or . picket, formed of musket
barrels with bayonets fixed, taken at Matamoras
on the surrender of that place; there is a frame of
wood, the size of the grove, sunk about 2 feet in
the ground and the butS of the barrels let into that
5 or S inches apart, awl a lighter frame at the top
letvlown to where the bayonet is attached to the
barrel, completes the structure, the whole being-
Painted black and varnished, presents a beautiful
itud, very appropriate Memento to mark the final
Testing place of a distinguished soldier. The reg
ulars and volunteers have established a ride, a vi
olation of which, subjects the individual to a
court martial, viz: a razor is nut to touch your
face after having seen It Mexican. I hate joined'
('apt. Earley s company of Mounted Riflemen, a t.
t ached to the Ist Regiment of honor of Texas vol
unteers, which is commanded by Col. Hays, noto
rious in the history of ! the Texas Revolution, and
the second in command is Lieut. Col. Walker, late
Captain, who distinguished himself in the late
battles, and also by carrying dispatches front
Paint Isabel to Gen. Taylor, at Matamoros, the
day before he left his entrenchments to bring
provisions front the Point.
The Regiment is encamped in a cluster of small
chapparels, about way between the Point and
Matamoras, on the road which lien. Tailor passed
on his return with big got/ wagons loaded with
provisions, and within a short distance of the bat
tle ground of the Bth; the location is a very healthy
me, having a delightful breeze from sun rising to
to sun setting. The ehapparels are formed by a
tree called Nlusquet, (pronounced Muskeet) which
grows to the height of 10 or 13 feet and an under
growth of Prickly PeAr, frequently, found as high
as 10 feet and covering a space of b or 10 feet in
diameter—the fruit isOlow ripe—it reteinbles the
peach in flavor.
Perhaps a description of the ., equitment of man
and horse, may be interesting to, you. The dress
of the man is a blue mixed cotton frock, pants of
the same, check shirts,'A broad brimed white hat
turned up at the sides; no cravat, one suit in re
serve, a belt round the waist containing a bi ace of
rifle-barreled pistols and bowie kuile, which an
swers the two-fold purpose—of a weapon and cut
ting your meat—a yeager strung across the back
Iron] the right shoulder.
And the Horse a curb bridle, martingale, Mexi
can saddle, two blankets—the one under the saddle
the other fastened on: the top of the saddle by a
sursingle—the camp bed is constructed by spread.
big one of your blankets on the ground, your sad
dle for a pillow and the second blanket for a coy- I
ering. A halter ot mile, made of horse hair or hemp,
30 or 60 feet long, one end fastened round the hor
ses neck—there to remain—at night the other end
fastened to a tree or stake—to admit of the horse feed
ing on the surroundinggrass of luxuriant growth
and very nutriciatiS quality, judging from the
condition the wild cattle, deer, &c. are found in
all seasons of the year. In the morning, when
ready to march, the,rope is coiled up and hung to
the horn or point of the saddle, saddle bags, a
gourd hung to the horn of the saddle to carry wa
ter, a tin cup, holster and broad, sword complete
the equipment.
Wild animals are, great numbers within half
a mile of the rangers camp—the week I spent
there we had venison of the very best quality,—
There arc other animals in the vicinity, which
.would be quite a curiosity in a northern latitude,
viz:-Horned Frogs,with tails as long as the body;
(Armidillas, they are described in Goldsmith's Nat.
oral History,) one of them was killed while 1 was
_there; another animal, one of which passed through
the centre of the eampind produced quite an ex
citement for a few Munutes—some of .the men
wishing to capture it on account of the skin, which
is very beautiful, it is called' the Leopard Cat—
it is about twice . the; size of it. large domestic eat—
closely. resembling animal after which it is
doomed.
. rangers are now. under marching orders . .a/I, d ,
wili leave.their present encampment in 3 or 4 days ,
for Mier. vi-hich is about 150 miles above IVlatamo
,
ras, and 50, above Camargo, the point at which
Gen. Tayloiis now concentrating his -troops, as
fast as prOvisiOns can be sent up to them. Ca
margo will be the place from which the army will
take.up their lime of march . for Monterey. The
let and 2d Regiments of Rangers will constitute
the advance' guard of the army; together I they
nuMber from 15 to 16 hundred men; their .iduty
will be the most pleasant in the service. i
The Regiments will be - diVided into stnalh par
ties, say from 100 to 200 men, to scour the coun
try for 30 or 40 miles square, to observe thel ioda.
tions. and movements of the enemy. and reOrt to
Gen. Taylor every 24 or 48 hours, as the eircinn
stances of the Case renders it necessary. Oth—

upwards of 20,000 troops encarnped at Brazos, St.

However eNcellent - the general health, there is no
security against fbver, where the blood !is iinpure,
as indicated by eruptions of the skirt, Vertigo,
headache,: la.ssitude, &c. The best purifier of the
blood is-Clickner's. Sugar-coated Pitts, which"is so
skilfully 'compounded, that it does not cause grip
ing, the great objection to all pills. The envelope
of sugar.prevents all nausea, so that, save 'front
the powerful, yet easy operation, the patient would
hardly.bc aware -that he had taken any ,m&licine
at all. So well convinced is Dr. Clickner of the
efficacy of his pills in all specified cases, that lie is
pledged to return the money, when.the mjomised

Having attended an examination of the Select
School under the care of Mr. Henry Williams ' held
recently in his school room, corner of Federal and

public attention to this institution. We were highly
gratified with the progress and order of his school.—
This manner of simplifying and illustrating the -dif
ferent branches is peculiarly happy, add well' calcu
lated to give interest to the pupils. His mode of
teaching them to read struck us as novel, and one
that cannot fixil to make goodrenders.
From the knowledge that we have of Mr. Wit

SOME Druggists aro misled into the error. of buy

who, after being duly informed of the rascality of
these imitators, buy and attempt to impose upon the
public with such worthless trash. It is not the Su

Pills, but it is lay invention, for which I claim the
right. , G. BENJ. SMITH, M. D.,
