The northeastern section of the Common

he (8pn, the Hon, Peter S. Michler, and we
believe thai there is not a Whig in the State
who would pole 'a stronger vote. A native of
Pennsylvania, of German descent,"po8sesaed of
a strong business mind, blear intellect, pleasing
manners, and independent manly spirit, that
j spurns any ihn like tribkery or deceit, He is
beloved and respected by every than who krinws
(him. It was these noble traits of character
(hat enabled hi friends in 1835 to elect him to
the Senate of Pennsylvania', from this thtTtheii
strongest Locofoco Senatorial District in the
Staie. In how acceptable a1 manner he con-
conducted himself while Senator, the people of
this Commonwealth know well. No member
of the Senate was'more respected and beloved
by his colleagues than he! The writer of this
has1 frequently met thdse colleagues in different
parts of the State, and. Mr. Michler- was al
ways enquired after by the m with the most ar
dent feelings of attachment and respect. So
far, therefore, as pioper qualifications are con
cerned, there can be no fault found with him.
But, besides the fitness of man', we think

Whi! the bill was before Congress, praying for
relief to ihe gteryiftg people" ol the Emerald Isle,
Gen. Cass refused to vote for that Beneficent
measure. 'He sat q'oietly in his seat in the Sen

thbusands in Ireland, went up to Heaven, he, Lew
is Cass', closed his ears' and refused to -alleviate
their distresses. The bill was passed notwith

George SeitzinGeb, sg., of Barry township

itician, thus writes to the editor of the; Miner's
Journal, his sentiments for itie Fourth of July :
"My first President was Thomas' Jefferson and
my last James K. Polk. I was in favor of the
Tariff of 1842, when Polk recommended, the Tar
iff of 1846, and Dallas gave his casting vote in fa
vor of it. I-'then Tecommended Scoff 6r Taylor
for the next Presidency", and as soon as Old Rough
and Ready gave the first blow to the Mexicans, I
told my neighbors that Scott must give way' to
Tavlor this time, and I feel confident, if we',live,

it?" Some contemporaneous record of

this honor belongs to Gen. ththcait McArthur, for

Ner MipDLESWABTH.-The Whig press of the
interior evinces the strongest belief that this gen
tleman will be elected Canal Commissioner.
There are few persons in the State who are more
fntimafe with its public works, and none better
qualified"by force of character and energy to ma
nage them with prudence and economy. Mr.
MiDDtEswARTicis a complete type of the Pennsylvania-
farmer, laborious, self-taught, intelligent,
well versed in-political economy, attentive to his
individual- cohcerns, and always ready to serve his
fellow. citizens in the State councils, when his con
stituency require his aid. We all are wellaware
that' these qualities have not heretofore been re
ceived with sufficientfavor by the dominent party
in our State to break down the' strong ties of par
tizaW allegiance, and " democracy1' has rather
looked to the success" of man, who would distribute
the canal offices among the faithful," than to the
.hue ihterestsrof thb; State. But there has lecent
ly been a revolution in publib feeling ; better men
and' sounder statesmen ard now placed iii nomina

Portrait of Iewis Cass.
Whether the following portrait of Lewis Cass,
drawn by the Editor of the New York Globe,
is a life-like copy we areunuble to say; but
as it is- from the pencil of a hco'foco, who is
presumed io know well the features of the orig
iriaf, we present it to our readers, promising that,
had it come fTom Whig hands, it ahould not be
suffered to' appear in our columns : -
" Lewis Cass is one of the most misehlble
demagogues alive. Narrow in intellect shriv

tool of flesh-mongers, who would blister the
free soil of Mexico with the curse of negro
bondage. To think of the republic of Wash
