FOR TIIK AMSRICAX.
Truly Astonishing- Political Curiosity.
Mr. Editor have hoard it said that the
whole force ofthe Whig patty was to be put in
action in the Thirteenth District, which, by the
very liberal distribution of documents, the quan
tity of speeches delivered by itinerant Whig
preachers, and their living kindness for the people-,
seen) to verify this charge. What led me
to make these remarks, was a Whig meeting held
nt the House of Mr. George Conrad, in "Old
Augusta," of which I am a resident. Passing
along, previous to the meeting, I observed a call
Tor a "Democratic" meeting. Being one of the
"Old Jefferson Democrats of Augusta," I imme
diately concluded to attend. What do you think
my astonishment was on my arrival at the op
pointed place? I will leave that for you to
imagine. As a coon curiosity, I candidly be
lieve it will never be surpassed. Behold! as I
entered the house, I espied a large assomolage
of people, amounting in ull to 1(5. I soon per
ceived the deception that had been carried on
for the benefit of us hard-fisted yeomanry, as they
term us. Myself, ami eight other fellow Demo
crats attended the meeting, under the impression
given ns by the "Democratic" call Mark the
deception.
An undoubted reason that there was not a more
numerous attendance of the Democracy of Au
gusta is, that they were made acquainted with
the change of "Democrat'' for Whie. If myself
and the other eight democrats had known the
coon trick, there would have been no more than
the noble seven present.
The number that constituted the meeting, as
I noticeil above, was 16, all the way If,, 9 of
whom were Democrats of Augusta, the balance
Were Whigs from Sunbury, with one exeption.
From this, you will readily perceive that the
yeomanry of Augusta are determined to take an
uitive part in the glorious cause of Democracy,
and will give such a majority for Polk, Dallas
and Shunk. as will teach the Whigs how to carry
on their deception hereafter.

The Tariff of 1H-T.
The Editor of the Madwoman enyp, 'we be
lieve and think we can prove Mr. Clay was op
posed to the tariff net of J, and desired his
friends to vote noainst it.' What better evi
dence of this could be asked than the undenia
ble fact that Mr. ClayV particular friends did
role against it
Among these wore John Quiney Adams of!
Massachusetts, Messrs. Linn and Foster of New
York, Notts, Goggitt and Somers of Virginia,
Itayner, Washington, Deberry, Shepherd, Gra
ham ond Mitchell of North Carolina, Ilnber
sham, Warren, Gamble, Foster and T. Butler
Kin? of Georgia, Carothers, Gentry, M. Blown,
O. II. Williams and the two Campbells of
Tennessee, Messrs. Tripled, I'nderwood, Out
ly, Thompson, firven, Sprigg, Spcuher
'White of Kentucky, all of whom were consi
dered the near friends of Mr. Cluy, and some of
them his organs on the floor ot the House, and
nil, with the exception of Mr. White, who did
not vote for it, and who had twice previously
defeated it by his casting vote, rated against
tic Tariff tflV2, which is now claimed as a
whig measure.
In a House of Representatives containing a
large whig majority, FIFTY -FIVE WHIGS
either voted against theTurilV of '4J or dodged
it ; and be it remembered that among these are
eight elevenths of the itiiin-diate representatives
of M. ('lay, the men over whom he had control
and influence, and who would not have voted so
without his sanction and influence, and by thus
voting and dodging nearly defeated the passage
of this hill ; and who can doubt the statement
of the M.tdiantiian ! Again we have the testi
mony ot Daniel Webster that the Tariff of
'12 was passed by democratic votes, and yet
the whigs now want to claim the credit of it,
and on that credit ride Henry Clay into the
Presidential chair, where the people have
three times decided he shall not set.
Add to this, the late House of Representa
tives contained a decided democratic majority,
and that House refused to repeal the Turill'of
and say who are the friends of that mea
sure. Mr. Clay is set up in the North as the ad
vocate of protection, in the teeth of his repea
ted declarations to the contrary. Hear the
Madison inn on this subject :
"We assert, and of course can prove, that
after the expiration ot the last tariff law, (by
limitation,) on the ROtli of lime, f!i2, it was
the desire of Mr. Clay iif all duties should
be laid without regard to the protection of any
domestic article whatever. The Intelligencer
dare not deny this and call upon us for our
witness to prove what we have asserted. If
called upon, his name shall be given, and then
ho may answer for himself to any interrogato
ry put to him by the trhigs."
And this is the candidate of the men who
write Protection, Clay and the Tariff of '42,
upon their banners. Verily, this humbug of
111 will equal in magnitude any of 1910.

lf lite AcadlXcv Zealand.
Tho Journal dea Dcbats gives tho following
etory, communicated by a correspondent at Aka-
roa, in New Zealand :
'Probably before my letter arrives in France,
you may have learned that the Mahouris, a
tribe of Zealanders, have killed thirty English
of this colony ; but you, perhaps, will nat know
that the bodies of these unfortunate men were
eaten. This is but too true. We had been out
on a hunting party for about a week, when one
evening wc arrived among the friendly tribe ot
Tcrauraraa or Mahourw, and found them re",a-
ling themselves with human flesh. We nil
conceived they were eating some captive, or
native slaves of their own. As I understood the
language, I could not resist expressing my in
dignation, and I threatened them with chastise
ment from tho crew ofthe corvette.
The savages were alarmed, and endeavored
toapp.;asc me by Baying "They are not men of
Mahouri that we are eating, but some Yee-ycs"
for it is thus they call the English, They
then exhibited to us the heads of their victims,
and I recognized among them that of Captain
Wakefield, one ofthe distinguished inhabitants
of Port Nicholas, who had entertained us at his
own house when we went to the town to pro
cure provisions. I was seized with horror at
this sight. My companions blamed me for ha
ving risked irritating tho cannibals, as we were
only five against two hundred. But they gave
us confidence by saying, "Oh, the Owi-oui (for
so they distinguished us) are good people, but
the Yee-yesare very wicked." They then re
lated that they hnd killed the English because
they wished to establish themselves in a bay
which the Mahouris were unwilling to give up.
We then retired, with our hearts lull of horror
and disffust."

appointment to this station shows that he hnd the
respect and confidence of his lellow meinl'ers, ami

Mr. Bright took an active and leading part in
retrenching the expenses ofthe Legislature, and in
introducing principles of economy into every
Irranch of the Government. He was on the Com

reform which distinguished the last Legislature
was brought about. He went about saving the
people's money in earnest. A few days afrer the
opening of the session, he offered the resolution

It wss suspected that great frauds had been

ferret out the frauds. Mr. Bright was one of the

Committee. The result was that ovricliarges of
the printers, to the amount of thirteen thousand
dollars, were discovered and suits directed to he
