Not Honored.
Shortly after Captain Tyler's political pilgrimage
to the East, a lidiculous rumor was set afloat by
the New York Sun, that Harvard University, the
oldest seat of learning and science in the United
States, had conferred the honorary degree of Doc
tor of Laws, (L. L. D.) upon that individual. It
was thought strange at the time that an old and re
spected institution as Harvard, should hold their
honors so cheap, and confer them upon men so un-

They are supposed to owe their poisonous

some vegetables, known by the name of Prussic
acid; which, when concentrated, is one of the
most virulent poisons in existence. As catile

devour ihem with avidiiy when within their
reach, farmers and others should take special
care to keep them out of their way.

that the long- pending contest. be

das and others, and the late Judge
Hitchcock, of Mobile, involving up
wards of half a million of dollars, has
been decided by the Chancellor of
Alabama, in favor of the Bank and
her Assignees.
The claim of Judge Hitchcock a
rose out of a loan made to him by the
Bank of the United States, and fpr
which he gave a mortgage on his ex
tensive property in Mobile. He sub
sequently set up the defence of usu
ry to the suits instituted by the Bank.
And he duriug his life and his repre
sentatives since his death, have on
that and other grounds, assumed by
them, contested the cause with great
pertinacity. The opinion of the Chan
cellor in all the points is in favor of
the plaintiffs.
This decision is particularly inter
esting to Philadelphians, as the assets,
the title to which is thus established,
were included in the assignment made
for the benefit of the Banks of the

Loustana Election. Anelection
for four members of Congress, took
place in this state on the 2d inst., and
has probably resulted in the cnoice of
Loco Focos in all the Districts. It
s stated that the vote was by rio
means a full one. None of the Whig
strongholds give any thing like a full
vote. The Locofocos have won bv
professing to be better Whigs than
he Whigs themselves ! The great
question on which the election ap
pears to have turned, was the protec
tion of the sugar interest and the mem-
bers are pledged to do more for the.
protection of that interest than .the
Whigs could do ! Verily Locofoco
ism is all things to alL men. The four
probably successful candidates are
Messrs. .Slid ell, Labranche, Dawson
and Bossier. The New Orleans Bee
of the Sth says : Fredonian.
"We do not know certainly that
the state hasgone against the Whigs;
out arguing against the very worst
aspect of the case, we see no cause
for dismay at the result. But we do
see abundant cause for a new and"
thorough re-organization of our par
ty. And it is necessary for us to goj
to work at once to prepare for next
July. A more important canvass is
"before us than any that has taken
place since the state was admitted
into the Union. The election of
members of the convention to re-model
the Constitution will take place
next July, and the first gun ifi the
Presidential campaign, that is to de-
cide the late or our principles will
be fired in this city."
All Sorts of a Toast. The fol
lowing toast was given on the Fourth
of July at Campbell Court House,
Virginia, By R. Hughes Mr. Pres
ident, I want you to let every one
know that I am ior Henry Clay
against the world. He and I were
born close to the slashes of old Han
over. He worked barefooted and so
did I. He was a good boy to his
marnmy, and so was I. I know him
like a book, and Hove him like a broth-

er. ir any man nas anyinmg w say
against him, let him come to me. If j
there is any better, braver, or smarter
man than Henry Clay on this bod's
globe; why I say he would be a sort of
curiosity, and 1 would like to look at
him. Go it Clay ! (333 cheers )

Rcccption of O' Council at Enn w700,000
Persons Assembled Tremendous Excitement
and Enthusiasm! Mr. O'Connell had a dem
onstration at Ennis, for the county of Clare, on
Thursday, the 15th nil., and the meeting is de
scirbed as. more numerous than any that "prece
ded it tho numbers are stated at 700,000! in
cluding about 6,000 horsemen; the cavalcade
of cars extended from EiHiis to Newmarket
six miles. The preparations of his reception
were most elaborate; at .the entrance of the
town "whole trees were plajited," with tri
umphal arches across the road, motios atid de
vices. The description of one device is worth trans
cribing. ' '
"The next was a chain extended across, the
centre of which was joined by a cord, and' on a
green banner over it was inscribed: '
' K W if I
'The Liberator or Ireland ,
Will cut asunder i( :
The chain of slavery
;' We labor under."
Here a man had taken up his position with a
sword, with which, as the Liberator approach
ed, he cut the cord in the centre, and the chain
was shivered on both tides, amid tho houts
and acclamations of thousands, that rent the air
for some-minutes."
The meeting was held on :he race ground,
and Mr. O'Connell ascended the platform, ac
companied by Mr. Thus. Steele, Mr. Charles
O'Connell, "Counsellor" O'Leary, and three
French gentlemen. On the motion of Mr. H.
Bridgman, M. P. and Justice of the Peace, the
Chair was taken by Mr. Cornelius O'Urien, M.

begin another career. Thev would have a nar-

buildings destroyed are the brass shop, in
which are manufactured stirrups and other ar

plain makers shop, and the stoh'e cutters shop,
which had been fired in three different places,
by an incendiary. Fortunately the prisoners,
to the number of 7G9 males, many of whom
are men of desperate characters, were each
confined in their separate cells atdinuerat the j

fish-bones sticking in the throat. It
is to be swallowed raw, and will car
