Shocking Murder.
A meet diabolical murder was committed in Ma
dison iParish, Mississippi, about thirty miles from
Vicksburg, a short time since. The story is told in
the Vicksburg papers of the 22d ult.
It seems a Mr. Wilkins had threatened to shoot
a mule belonging to a man named Watley, who
was the overseer of William Cochran, Esq. Some
days ago Watley got his gun, ordered two negroes
to accompany, and proceeded to Wilkins' house.—
Hs inquired of Mrs. Wilkins if her husband was in
the house, and was informed that he was in a cer
tain Geld. Watley immediately went there, called
Wilkins to the fence, shot kiln down, commanding
his negroes to carry the corpse to the house of the
murdered man, and with the effrontery of a demon,
cooly opened the gate himself togive them entrance
into the yard. He has since decamped.
A &MILT FIGHT AT WASHINOTONa- , - , ThC
Washington Standard of Saturday says:—A fm
en occurred on yesterday near thd railroad de-
pot, in which a Mr. Fowler, reporter for the Globe,
and a Mr. Hart, a correspondent of the New York
rearing Poat, with some two or three others, whose
names we could not hear, participated. Knives
were drawn and used, too, as it would seem from
the appearance of the combatants after the affray;
but nothing serious resulted from it. We have not
learned whether the police have discharged their
duty in the arrest of these disturbers of the public
peace."
Q' The Clay Trumpet say...—. There are two
hinds of Johnson men sprinkling over Pennsylva
nia—whole hog Johnson men and Van Buren
Johnson men. One portion determined that he
shall run on his own hook for the Pmidency, the
ether making him the tail to the Van Buren kite.—
The Colonel is beyond question far more popular
with the Locofocos than Mr. Van Buren, yet he
will be compelled to be satisfied with the Vice Pre
sidency or nothing. The great guns of the party
have settled the nomination on the Kinderhook
Magician, end there is no help for Col. Dick,
though he did kill Tecumseh."
Ma. CLAY. -Gen. Duff Green says:—‘. It is as
sented by the partizans of Mr. Van Buren that he
will be nominated by the Baltimore Convention.—
If so, no sane person can doubt the election of Mr.
Clay, and he will be elected because it is impossible
to rally the Democratic party in support of Mr. Van
Buren, whose nomination will have been produced
:by a combination of political managers, organized
40 the large states of New York, Pennsylvania,
sOltio and Virginia, for the purpose of seizing upon,
rand distributing among themselves the patronage
the Gavernment."
No never or IT.--A smart young student of
A.natoiny remedied, in the hearing of his sister, that
Abe reason there are so many old maids in the
world, u all owing to their tight lacing—which so
/today their hearts as to make them impenetrable
.to the ehafts of Cupid.
And the reason there are so many old bachelors,
retorted the sister, is because of their light drop
ping—they can't get on their knees to declare their
passion.
Now that 'the cause of one •of our worst social
4Wils'is made known, we hope.that prompt measures
will be taken to remedy it. Let stays and straps be
forthwith discarded, ;tad we doubt not that in ashen
time old maids and bachelors will bo rare aces."

Gen. James Irvin.
An article appeared recently in the Pennsylva
nia Telegraph, over the signature of "Old Mifflin,"
making a very ungenerous and uncalled for attack
upon Gen. Jame. Irvin of Centre county, who is
favorably spoken of in various sections of the State
as the Democratic Whig candidate for Governor.—
This wanton attack has justly aroused the indigna
tion of the friends of Gen. Irvin throughout the
State, and is severely commented upon by editors
ane correspondents of a number of Whig papers.
The writer in the Telegraph is justly censurable
for the very unfair manner in which he treats the
subject. He attempts to ridicule the pretensions
of Gen. I. to the appellation of a the popular Con
gressman," given to hint by his friends, by stating
that Judge Banks received 651 votes more in
Irvin's district than Irvin received lost full. He
neglects to state, however, as in justice he should
have done, that the cause of Irvin's small vote last
year was in consequence of a very small turn-out
of votes; and that notwithstanding the small elec
tion, Irvin was elected by a majority of 1336 last
full, whilst Banks was beaten in the same district
by nearly 800 votes. The writer neglected to state
also, that in the same district in 1840 that Gen. Irvin
received an aggregrate vote of 6960, being 534
more votes than Judges Banks received in 1841.
At that time Gen. Irvin' run against A. Porter Wil
sen, a nephew of Gov. Porter's, who was then in .
the zenith of his power, and was triumphantly
elected, notwithstnnaing he had to contend against
the influence of both the State and National Gov
ernments.
From these facts it will appear evident that " Old
Mifflin" has dealt very unfaily with Gen. Irvin, and
that the censure which is meted out to him by the
friends of that gentleman is eminently Merited. In
the discussion of the claims of the several candidates
for the honor of the Whig nomination, we depre
cate all attempts to disparage the merits of any one.
Let each one urge the claims of his favorite' hon
estly, fairly, and as energetically as he pleases, but
let him not detract from the merits of others. Let
" union and harmony," and a determination to abide
the decision of the Convention, be the watchword.

WHIG SENATOR FROM Lou istAit.A.—On Mon
day the the 29th ulf., Hon. Henry Johnson, Whiff,
was elected by the Legislature of Louisiana, United
States Senator from that State, to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the death of Judge Porter. On the
first balloting Mr. JOHNSON received 38 votes, Mr,
WALKER, (Dem.) 27 votes, and 2 votes were in
I blank. On the second balloting Mr. Johnson!' fe
ceived 39 votes, and was elected, Mr. Walker 35
votes and two votes were again in blank.
The term for which Mr. Johnson has been cho
sen extends to the 4th of March, 1849.

to make an honest man curl up his nose in disgust,
and kick him out of his presence, if he can't get rid
of him in any other mode."
CC Such has been the mild character of the pres- 1

which, however, were whipped off by high winds

O John Smith has been committed to prison is

not said that there was a wife in the number of
John's Grand Isle menage.

The Western Statesman.
The following eulogium was pronounc
ed by the Rev. Mr. Camas, before the
11 hig Convention, of Alabama, last year,
and we need scarcely add, that it filled
every bosom with the fire of patriotism,
and nerved every heart with the resolu..
lion to do its best. •
HENRY CLAY.
"I have insinuated, sir that the temple
of liberty has been shaken to its very
base, by the genius of this thing called
democracy. And who doubts it? Who
has forgotten the scenes of 1831-2, when
the sound of the drum was heard in Caro
lina, her plains covered with the armies
of Andrew the Great, and her coasts lin
ed
with his frigates of war. What patri
ot heart beat not with painful anxiety,
when the issue was suspended on an ap
peal to Congress? The appeal *as made
—it was rejected—the genius of democ
racy reigned ir. the temple of liberty, and
instead of an armistice, the Bloody Force
Bill passed. The tocsin of war sounded
throughout the capitol, and the armies of
Government were commanded to bow 'the
traitors' or exterminate them from the
home of their fathers. Sir, it was an
eventful hourthe old lion of democracy
howling for the blood of freemen's suns—
and the goddess of Liberty weeping over
the scene! It was indeed an eventful
hour..--one fell blow, and a conflict ensues
which dissolves the Union, and spreads
death and destruction throughout the
land: In the eventful moment, the visag e
of the care - worn majectic being appeared
on whose brow seemed to be suspended
the ponderous weight of liberty and the
Union, when lo! a voice as from the ghost
of Washington exclaimed--"SAVE THE
UNION, ErwAs PURCHASED Wl'l'H
TEAMS AND BLOOD OF YOUR
FATHERS P' 'Twas Clay, sir, that
matchless statesman. Clay, bearing in
one hand the olive branch of peace;
and in the other the sword of truth and
I.bei ty, he approached the altar consecra
ted to liberty—there he laid his offering,
and there, with that burning, impassioned
eloquence, congenial with his exalted na
turein the name of liberty, and in the
name of the blood-stained spirits who
pm chased it, he bade the daring suns of
democracy sheath their swords and not
wreak them in the blood of their broth
ers. His mandate was obeyed ; the old
Lion of Democracy crouched in his lair ;
peace was restored ; and the linion saved.
Mr. President, my heart recurs to the
scenes of that eventful hoar with emotions
unutterable, and when it ceases to beat
with the warmest pulsations of moral ap
prol,ation for the matchless actor in that
great drama in my country's liberty, let
me receive the etecratioas of my country
and my country's God. I said it then,
sire and I say it now, fearless of contra
diction, that such au instance of the pow
er of mind over the daring passions of
despotism was never before exhibited to
the world. The edict was passed—the
bloody warrant signed—the old lion of
democracy grasped it in his paw—but
one stroke ol that overpowering eloquence
before which kings tremble and despots
bow, made the Hero of New Orleans
quake on his throne, and restore to the
polluted altar of liberty, the bloodstain
' ed edict which he had seized with delight.
I repeat it, sire such an instance of the
power of mind over the daring passions
of despotism had never before been ex•
hibited to the world. There was awreath
of civic renown—a halo of immortal glo
ry around the brow of Henry Clay in that
hour which presents him in bold relief as
the greatest orator, the purest patriot, and
the must magnanimous statesman in the
universe. Talk of Calhoun, sir, as the
great Hercules of mind and spirit—great
indeed as the powers of Hercules. but
great as Hercules is, the lion of Democ
racy had him bound with cords of hemp;
and whetting his bloody fangs, he was
ready to tear the Herculean giant into a
I thousand atoms.
Talk of Webster as the great master
spirit of the age—great indeed is %Vet,-
ster—but Webster was there, sir, and
great as he is, lit had nut the heart to ap•
proach the open jaws and bloody fangs of
the howling lion and bid him stay his
wrath. l'was reserved for the noble
dating of Clay to do the deed, and it was
done."

It is with unfeigned sorrow we an

Hon. ALEXANDER l'oaTca, one of the
Senators of the United States from the
State of Louisiana. 11e died at his plan

13th of January, in the 58th year of his
age. He was an accomplished gentle
man, jurist. and statesman, greatly be
loved by those who knew him well, and
honored and respected by all persons.
Mr. Porter was a native of Ireland,
whose father perished on the scaffold, a
martyr to the cause in which Emmett and
his compatriot, iaid down their lives,—
Immediately after this sad eient, the son
emigrated to this country, and settled
down in Attakapas,in Louisiana. He was,
if we mistake not, a member of the Con

that State, and afterwards a member of
the State Legislature. He was then ap

Lousiana, in which he sat fur many years
with high reputation. He was chosen
Senator of the United States in the year
1833, and sat in that body some years ;
and, after a brief retirement, he was last
winter again elected to the Senate for a
term of six years, but under that election
had never taken his seat.
