Public Plunder. We have often insisted upon ft, that only ties of affini'V between the various Nectnms of the Locofoco party were those cemented by the co hesive force of public plunder. So long as the offices and the public patronage remain in their hands, and are monopolized by their favorites, just that long they will remain the united, well disciplined and vitjorous party they are. There is bm little similarity between the various frag ments that make ihe aggregate Locofoco parly. In some of the States they sustain the protec tive policy, while in others they are hostile to ii. In the western States they go for a liberal and comprehensive system of internal improve ments, while on the seaboard they denounce ihe whole system as unconstitutional.- In New York they g' against an extension of slave ter rttory, while further kouiIi they have made this very question a cardinal point in the party creed. No matter for this wide difference of semi niLiit however, so lar as the " party is con- rented. When the Baltimore Convention meets, they will be found battling for the nom inee, earnestly, vigorously, t-huulder to shoul der! The power, the patronage, the public plunder, have far greater weight upon the par ty in power than principles or measures of pub lic policy. It js, there.lore, ihai the Washing ton Union a.vks most Uchrymosely what pledge Gen. Taylor has given as to the distribution (if the executive patronage." Supposing him in the field as a candidate, the Union is only concerned to know to whom he will give the Mr. plunder! This is consistent Union like. Richie will find that the Whigs don't fight for plunder. They seek to restore the republican plaiform of the fathers of ihe republic, and who. ever may happen to become their standard bear er, in the canvass at hand, will make it his business rather o " protect and defend the con stitution than to minister to the hungry cor morants that now infest the seat of government. There is a good time coming, and the sooner the Vandals and Goths are driven from the capital the better for country at large. Daily News. The Erie bank directors have issued a card showing that the Institution has assets sufficient to meet all its liabilities. Gen. Reed has, be sides, made himself responsible for the debts. The Gazette says the draining of specie by the brokers caused the suspension. " I'm very partial to General Scott, but he is decidedly wrong." How so r " No soldier has a right to complain of his pillow." N. Y. Atlas. But such a-pillow as Scoit had. Surely you cannot blame Jhim for complaining of it. Bos tun Bee. Certainly not in such a cash. This is not the first soft pillow the hero of L'undy's Lane has stripped of its feathers. Phil. Sun. The N. Y. correspondent of the Boston Chronotype says that some parties in that ctiy went into a flour speculation on the .strength of the foresight and predictions of A J. Davis, the clairvoyant. The predictions turned out falacious and the credulous parlies lost the $30,000 they had adventured.- Served them right. What they sit for. A Quaker, who was examined before a court, not using any otfrer language than "thee," and "friend," was asked by the president judge, "Pray, Mr. ,do you know what we sit here for?" "Yea, verily, do 1," said the Quaker, "three of you for two dollars each a day, and the fat one on the right for one thousand dollars a year." A Prophecy. A celebrated rock in Ireland, known as the rock of Casliel, recently fell to the ground, after defying the storms that have beat upon it since the deluge. An ancieui pro phecy was connected with this rock,4 the sub stance of which was, that a great revolution would occur in England the same year the rock should fall. Strange Suicide A week or two since a man named Bruch, living near Cincinnati, committed suicide in the following manuei : He went to the churchyard and dug his grave beside his wife, who had been buried some six teen months before. Having procured a coffin under some pretence, he conveyed u to its des itaatson unobserved. He then took off his clothes, except his shirt, put on a nightcap, and laid himself in the coffin which he had previ ously placed in the newly made grave, with a loaded pistol in it. He now drew on the cover of the coffin, and then, placing the pistol to his right temple, fired it. It i supposed he died instantly. There is no doubt that Bruce ' was crazy, A racp was run over the Union Course, L. I., between Fashion and Bostona, last week, in which the latter was distanced. Fashion made the four miles in 8 mintltes and 17 secauds.

Can it be Beat, Mr. Henry Novich, of Norriton township, left at our office on Monday last, several stalks of Rye, measuring from 8 feet to 8 feel 3 inches in length. He says he has twelve acres of the ame kind and desires to know whether any Loco-foco grain grower in the county can show any thing like it. What say you gentlemen ? Norrislown Herald, Thirty S t at e s ,-T h e bil admitting Wis consin into the Union has passed both bran ches of Congress. Vagabonds for America. The Limerick, (Ireland,) papers state, that about 200 vagabond spies, who were somewhat trouble some to the government, were to be forthwith trans ported to America, by the authorities, in a ship freighted for that purpose. The Reporter con: gratulates the country on the prospective happy riddance of the crew, at any cost, but at the same time condoles with the Americans in (being obliged to receive such a community of wretches. French cabinet-makers can now make wood of any color they please, by letting the roots of the tree absorb' the colored fluids the year before they are cut down.

A Determination of Blood to 'the Head, as -jl it is called, can be accounted for upon no other principle than from the presence of corrupt and stagnant humors in the venous circulation, which prevent the return of the vital fluid to the heart. When the passages are choked up, and it becomes, as it were, prisoner in the head, there is a distension or swelling of the blood-vessels, a pressure upon the brain, headach, giddiness, pal pitation of the, heart, apoplexy, and other dreadful results. Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are certain to prevent the. above unpleasant complaints, because they expel from the circulation those humors which are the cause of all disordered motions of the blood. They also aid and improve digestion, and therefore will most assuredly give health and vigor .to the body. Beware of Sugar Coated Counterfeits. Re member, that the original and only genuine Indian Vegetable Pills have the written signature of Wil liam Wright on the top label of each box. i or sale by George H.
