A T;iH Candidate. We g,rc the following cximci from a Inner of the Washington correspondent ofcihe N. Y. Herald for what it is wonh, promising only iliat we have a similar intimation from one who professed lo speak knowingly : Be not surprised, oh, ye intelligent readers of the Herald, however, if all the democrats in ihe field should be set aside and a new man taken up, say for example Gov. Shunk, of Penn sylvania. We know that there is a movement here going on for him ; and he would be, from his position, and from the fact thai he is a plain man of the people, one of the most formidable candidates that the democrats couldappoint. The nomination of Mr. Polk was laughed at in 1814 Look out ihat ihe same policy of a new man is not the ticket for 1S48 A Very Sensible Clergyman' A few days previous to the election in Chi caci, which resulted in the complete overthrow ollocofocoism in that enterprising city, a Meth odist minister, holding fourth in a school house in the uluirbs, concluded the service of the ,jay with the following very appropriate re marks : " And now, 0 Lord, we ask of ihee to pro ject our favored land, and keep it in the way of democracy the good old democracy that protects the civil and religious rights of the people, and not that prairie wolf democrady which has so long cursed the benighted State of Illinois. We ask it for the Redeemer's sake Amen. Rev William G. Brownlow, of the Jones borough (Tenn.) Whig, writes from New Or leans (where he is on a visit) to that paper, iving an account by no means flattering of ihe Croeni City. He devotes a page of the Whig to ihe description. We give a specimen : 44 New Orleans is a 44 head snd shoulders taller" than any city I ever was in. Nay, it is a pole and compass"deeper in the sinks of in iquity than any city I ever was in. The devil operates here upon a Idrge scale, and really has his barracks here, together with the most of his recruiting officers. Rev. Dr. Clapp of this citj, has delivered aVerinon, in which it is made to appear that ther.e is no hell in the next life in which to pun ish Mittiers ! This is an important discoverv, and revives the drooping spirits of thousands here, who know thai, if the vulgar notion of a hell in the next life be true, they will have to pay for the roast. It is more important, to the inhabitants of New Orleans to have the doctrine of hell fire and future punishment done away with than of any other city I was ever in !" The Army. A Washington letter sa$s, 44 ihe accounts of the mortality in the army are frightful. It is staled upon the authority of Gen. Twiggs, that the deaths amount to a regi ment a uiomh, and this is orily the opening of the vomito season Himibiisiaua. One of the city prints makes an effort to gel up an " excitement," on the ground of John Ja cob Astor nerer having been naturalized, and consequently his great estate must revert to the State. How foolish is all t'his ! Every person who had settled or was an inhabitant of i hi s country previous to the adoption of the Consn union, of 1789, was a citizen by right. We are certain Albert Gallatin never has been na turalized, and he has held some of the highest offices in ihe government. If our view of the case be correct, the heirs of Mr. A. can 44 rest easy in their shoes," even if the public debt of New York remains unliquidated for lack of this an icipated escheat. True Sun. A Whopper. A monster wolf was shot in Bedford courfty, Pa., a short lime since. He had been prowl ing about the neighborhood for nine months, and during that period killed about three hun dred sheen, and several cows and young cattle. He had been shot at about 100 times, but al ways escaDed unharmed. This wolf is of the Missouri breed, entirely white and had a neck like a lion. It measured five feel sis inches in length, and four feet high. Early Wheat. A specimen of new wheat was left at the office of the Montgomery (Ala ) Journal on the 29ih of April, lully ripe, to he harvested that week, if the weather was' lavour able. A Strange Will. An occentric gentleman of Philadelphia late ly deceased, left behind him an odd teiameiit' in the shape of a will from which the following is said to be an extract : "Whereas my daughter refused me a night's lodging in her bouse when I had no place of abode, I therefore leave her one cent, and to her henpecked husband, half a cent, as a man who allows his wife to insult her father in hi presence, is no man. To my other children I recomend a perusal of the Fifth Command ment. To my moiher-in-Iaw I bequeath six rents, provided she buys therewith a halter m hang hersejf, for having swindled the Elect out of a gold watch sh wears, under a pretence nf benevolence and Christian conduct and bo haiiour' Comfortable, Wheue'flr a French firm is in difiicuj'irtSi the E iverntnenl declare their intention to take, pos session of the works, and carry'on the busi ness ; giving the proprietor a .certain share, and dividing the rest amoig his workmen-!

A copy of the report of the Judges of Mu sical Instruments at the 'late exhibition of the Franklin Institute, Philadelphia: , .The Committee have awarded C. Meyer with a premium for the beat .seven octave Piano. The ground of this decision was the general excellence of the piano, and especially its pow er, brilliancy, and delicacy of touch. The judges did not give premiums for the best fin ished instruments, conceiving the best palpable tests of a piano to be its .musical capabilities, and not its originality, its mechanical igenuity, or that elegance of finish, which effects neither the. action nor the tone, and is only designed to please the eye and not to satisfy the ear. Another copy of the report of the judges ol musical instruments at the. last, exhibition, at Boston:-The committee have selected No. 591 a severi. octave piano made by C. Meyer, wor thy of special conimendation. . No.. 591, is a very fine instrument, partjeu. larly . commendable ,for its. elastic and .ready touch, in repeated trials by different hands. The keys never, failed of. certain repeinions in the shake, The tone throughout was even of great beauty and,povyer from the lowest note to highest, and the damping was perfect in all cases. ...... The North American of Philadelphia, Janu ary 4, 1848, contains the following notice: A Compliment to a Philadelphia Piano Manu facturer. Out Boston neighbors know how as well as we do to appreciate a good thing. The Massachusetts Charitable Mechanical Associa tion, at their last Annual Fair,--that of the au tumn of 1847 warded to Conrad Meyer, the celebrated. Piano Manufacturer of this city, a diploma and silver medal, for the best seven octave piano a compliment no other piano manufacturer of our city has received.
