L'OR CANAL COMMISSIONER
IVcr ITliddleswfirtiz.
The very judicious selection of the late Whig
Convention for Canal Commissioner, we are in
clined to think is a good omen for the coming con
test. Who that has been- at all acquainted with,
our legislative affairs for the last number of years,
is not .well acquainted- by reputation at leasts
with the firm, prudent', intelligent, honest old Dutch
farmer, Ncr Middlcsivanh. Born of Humble pa
rentage, his first days spent on a farm, and- when
he became old enough, we believe, apprenticed to
the trade of a blacksmith, he had not those advan
tages for receiving a liberal education which are
enjoyed by. the offspring of the wealthy ; but being
by nature; of an energetic, determined, never-despairing:
character lie qualified himself to appear in
our legislative halls, as one of its most useful and
sound members. So-well did his presence of mind,
sonnd judgment," urbanity of manners and deter
mined will qualify him for a presiding officer, that
for several successive sessions he was chosen
Speakor of our House of Representatives, where
he acquired' the rpputation of being one of the best
presiding officers our state has ever had. Mr.

been engaged in the; healthy and virtuous occupa

to visit him at home, amidst his large family of
sons and daughters, they would set him down as
a fair specimen of a hospitable Lebanon county
farmer. Wherever he goes, his frank, manly bear

a conversational companion either in the German

QCf" No paper was issued from this Office last
week, in consequence of a large amount of Job
printing, &c, with which we were then crowded,
and which would admit of no delay. We have
made such a clearning out, that it is not likely
that ve will be obliged again to disappoint our
friends.. .
Irregularity of the ITIa:iI.
We are constantly in the receipt of complaints :
from our subscribers, that they do not receive their
papers regularly, and some not at all. We can
only account for this by attributing the-neglect to
the Post Masters. We are careful about packing
our papers, and putting them in the Post Office;
after they are there, we cannot follow them. On
Saturday last we received complaint from Stod
dartsville, Monroe county, that our paper, which
we have regularly mailed to a subscriber there,
' has not been received by him for the last five
weeks.

"Massachusetts. The special election for a

resulted in the election of Horace- Mann, Whic.
by. about 1300 majority.
Connecticut, The State election which took
place in this Stale week before last,, has resulted
'"in a most decisive iriumph of 'the Whigs-. They
have je-elscted Governor Bissell and all-the State
officers by about 2400 over the L'oeofoeo candid
ates, and by over a thousand majority over all
others, including all the scattering votes,.whichis-
a'larger majority than has been given in the State
, for some years-. They have also a very decided
dential Elector for this District, is a compliment
which he has well deserved by his long and un
tiring exertions in favor of the Whig cause, and
meets with our hearty approbation.
The following Resolutions were alsounanimous
ly adopted :
' Resolved, That we cherish1, with the most ardent
love, all those great principles of government
which have for their aim the prosperity and glory
of our common country, and upon the basis of
which the Whig party is organized.
Resolved, Thar as the period of another Presi-(
dential Election is approaching, it becomes pur
duty to look about us for a Candidate who is at
tached to our principles,-and under whose-banner i
we -may march on to victory.
Resolved, that we have1 the highest confidence
in the integrity, patriotism and Whig principles of
General. Z AC II Alt Y TAYLOR, and believe that
his election to the Presidency would secure-to the
country as pure and able an administration' as it
has ever been blessed' with.
Resolved, That Gen.-Taylor is our first choice
for that exalted station. We love and esteem him
not only for his heroism and bravery, in the field,
but also for his unaffected Republican simplicity
of manners, singleness of purpose, ability of mind,
and firmness of character.
Resolved', That with Gen'. Taylor as our can
didate, we can enter upon the Presidential con-j
test with the highest assurance of success. The
efforts ol designing politicians 4b injure hvs pros
pects, by casting a doubt over his principles, in the
fachs to be substantially true and that he. va

and heard it for the first time ; ha. he. had
no desire to-detract from the merits f any offi
cer ; and rm one can regret more ibdii myself
if I have done so."
Gen. Scott then withdrew the charge and
said he would riot prosecute them'ouless or
dered by lhe Court. The case' wa.i then set
aside.
The case of Gen Pillow was then taken up.
General Scoti tillered to withdraw the charges
against htm, chiefly for the reason, that he. had
asked for a Court Martial; instead of wlrch
the Government had ordered a Court of Inquiry,
imo which he said, the ''judge and his prison

should justly incur their reproaches, and the re
