Some weeks since a Mr. Hugh Graham, pub
lished an article in "the Uniontown Whig paper,
containing a number of charges against William
Searight, the candidate of the Democratic party
for Canal Commissioner, and a letter said to
have been -written by Mr. Searight, in February
1841, to a certain Hugh Keys, is published
therewith. In this letter, if it is true, Mr.
Searight states :
" But as I was gilty of forgery by sining your
name to his note and the penitentiary Staring
me in the face I thot bast to release you from
the bank and have taken all the responsibility
on my self but if ever I do such an act again
Dam me."
The charges preferred against Mr. Searight
have been REFUTED so conclusively as to vin
dicate him entirely, and the odium of FALSE"
HOOD has been 6tamped on the front of Mr.
Graham, who must writhe and groan under its
effects. The letter remains, either to plague the
inventor, or, if true, to crush the hope we en
tertain for the election of Col. Searight
The Bedford Gazette says " that if the whole
affair is not cleared up,' Mr. Searight will be de
feated, and that his name shall be taken from
the head of teat paper." The letter is likely
to be disproved. lLowever, the Gazette is right,
and if sufficient evidence is produced to prove
the letter a forgery, tbeifl is no man ready to do
more to promote the election of Col. Searight
than its editor. Gen. Bowman. The present
position of the Gazette will be sustained by all
honorable, high-minded men; w.Vile the fact of

His appointment was accordingly sent him by

his acceptance.
Mr. Webster's declination of the mission to
England, being regarded as final, Mr. Critten

The trouble with regard to the British coloni
al fisheries is viewed well with unconcern, and
will amount to nothing. It is merely the en
forcement by the Euglisb.' government of the
treaty stipulations of 1818, as interpreted by
the British law officers in 1841. Lord Stanley,
in 1845, in consequence of the complaints made
by our minister of the attempt of the govern
ment of Nova Scotia to carry out this decision, j
directed the Governor of that province to relax
the strict construction so far as entering the
bays was concerned. The present British cabinet
choose to enforce the strict letter of the treaty,
probably as a means to compel this country in
to an acceptance of the Canadian reciprocity
scheme.; and it is probable, if Congress will

Capture of
Another American Fishing
Scbooner.
j Boston, July 24.
; A dispatch received in this city this morning
i from St John's, N. B., states that Her Majesty's
steamer Netley has captured and brought icta
that port the Schooner Haydes, of Lubec, Maine,
, J ,
for trespassing on the British fishing grounus,
in violation of the new construction of the treaty
of 1818.
The Haydes was captured in Bay of Fundr,
on the 20th irrt.
The New Brunswick papers comment with
considerable severity on tbe Webster dispatch.
The New Brunswicker of the 22d says that
the United States Government will make an at
tempt to obtain a modification of the strict let
ter of the fishery treaty, but failing in that,
they will then offer as an equivalent, reciprocity
in certain articles of domestic growth. T8
New Brunswicker thinks that the American GT
ernment will make a great noise about the ngi
enforcement of the fishery treaty, but they fee!
confident it will not frighten John Bull out cf
his present position.
The St John Morning News says, that seri
ous troubles between the two Governments are
anticipated, consequent upon the strict interpre
tation of the fishing treaty, by Earl Derby'
Government It is not at all improbable, the
News thinks, that the determination of the Brit
ish Ministry to enforce the treaty has been con
ceived with a view to the success of the negoti
ation for reciprocal free trrde.
The report gains currency, that the Uniteo
States Bloop-of-war Albany is under order for
the fishing grounds.
