THEO. FENN, E-I:—Your paper of the
•47ili ult. contains a communication sign
ed "Old Mifflin," which I object to, fur
the reason that it is unfair, uncalled for,
and untrue, and was, no doubt. designed
for the purpose of placiog the friends of
some two or three prominent candidates
for the Gubernatorial Chair, into belhge
rani positions so. that the favorite of the
writer— not brought into the controversy—.
, may gain vantage ground thereby.
In the same paper. in an editorial no•
- lice of die Communication, you state that
- your —press is open to a dietission of the
'merits of all the candidates spoken of."
'I ask, therefore, the use of your columns
'for the purpose of setting Gen, In , IN and
• his friends, who have been assaile•il by
your correspondent, in his and their prop
er light before the politic. In so doing,
%shall not detract one iota from the fair
nine of any of the distiogui,hed gentle
'men who have been named in connexion
with the office of Governor; nor skid! I
•iudulge in fulsome or undue praise of the
.aissailed ; but merely to show that "Old
Mifflin" has ...wilted and rniltivor
.eilto injure Geo. Incu r.
. .
Your . ' currespoothnt commences with
'hypocritical cant about the importance ''in
.canvassing the pretensions of candidates
for oili e. to abstain from any thing that
Might have a tendency to generate hostile
feelings among the respective aspirant s." This is, no doubt, a wholasome precept;
but in his practice, ''ol,l Mifflin" is dia•
metrically oppose to it; for he asserts that
"it has lately been deemed necesrary to
disparage his (Judge Bank's) popularity
for the purpose of advocating the preten.
',ions of a new candidate, WOO PRESENrs
tiII)PELF to the people, under the impos
ing sobriquet of "the popular Congress•
man:' Now, in the above quotation your
correspondent asserts two falsehoods
which are not even marked with plausa
bility. Where is the evidence that Judge
Banks' popularity is disparaged, and dis•
paraged, too, as the language implies by
he friends of Gen Irvin? 1 never heard
or saw any such evidence, and your env
correspondent cites none. You are told
that Gen Irvin "presents himsell," &c,.
but you are not favored with any thing
more than bare assertion. The fact is,
Gen. Irvin is not, and never was an office
seeker, as the people of his own district,
and every one else who knows any thing
about him, can attest. I never yet knew
a man to be popular in this section of the
State, if he wits known to be, or even sus
pected to be an office-huuter. lam con
fident that Gen. Irvin never swight the
nomination tor Chief Slagist;•ate of Penn
sylvania. Ile was nominated without his,
knowledge or consent; and, but for the
earnest solicitations of numerous friends,
he would have had his name withdrawn
from the list of candidates immediately
after its announcement.
Front another patigraph in the same
communication, 1 extinct the following:
“The gentleman who has thus appropria
ted to himself the imposing cogonien of
'.the popular Congressman," was riot
known out of his own district at the
beginning of the presont session of
Congress, either personally or by reputa
tion, to five hundred individuals in the
State or Union, or in both together! Now
in the spice of .six short weeks he is the
"popular Cnogressman," know') far and
wide." A bright idea, trmly !
Irvin, the man who in 1840 Lilt his uppo
ucnt in a district that had previously, al
nst from time immemorial, ele.cted a Lo
cornet) to Congress! Ile who was reelec
ted in 1813, by the triumphant majority
o I 1330, _having received 25,725
votes. He who stood up in Congress
during the late session, in defence of
Monte Industry and Home Manufactures,
and made speeches on the Tariff Bill,
that were published far arid ride, by the
newspaper press. Ile who is known
throughot the State and the Union as "the
popular Congressman," of Pennsylvia.

''Old NI tHin" asserts that the wonder.
ful popularity of lien. Irvin was wrought.
"by the magic influence of letter writers,
who for a proper consideration paid, can
magnify the smallest dwarf into the
largest giant, and affix to brass a higher
value than to unalloyed gold." In the
same paragraph, your correspondent
"objects too, to some half dirien men at
Washingtou city, aii4U ming the right of
determining for whom the people of Penn
sylvaMa roe for Governor." "It is
well known," says he, "in this part of the
State, that the 'public opinion' which it is
said designates Gen. Irvin as the Whig
candidate for Governor, Iraq been made to
order at Washington." What an OM
gent flood of light must have hurt sudden
ly upon the benighted vision of your cot.

in favor of Gen Irvin; and it has even

'Poland and others.
I would u•ag'r that .0111 Mifflin" is not
friendly to either of the gentlemen lie
flames.
Next, your correspondent states the
votes given for Governor in 1841, in the
counties of Ifontingdon, Mifflin, Centre,
and Juniata, the Congressional D'strict
which Gen Irvin represents; and also the
votes given in the SAllle counties in 1843,
for Member of Congress; which state
meta shows nothing more nor less, can
didly speaking, than that in a district in
which Kickanoo Porter beat Judge Banks
651 votes, Gen Irvin beat Geo. M'Cul
loch 1,336, making near 2,900 in
favor of Gen. Irvin over his party vote.—
But "Old :Mifflin" in.his insatiable desire
to misrepresent and injure an open
hearted and generous opponent, snakes an •
attempt to draw a most despicable cons
elusion from his statement—namely, that
because Banks received more votes in
those counties than (lid Irvin, therefore
Banks is popular and Irvin unpopular!
Every one knows that at elections 14
Governor more votes are polled than at
any other elections, that of President of
the United States not excepted. At the
Governor's election in 1841 there were
over 250,0(1 votes polled ; while at the
election last fall for Canal Commissioners,
there were not as many by 40,000.
Would it not be fair to state the ques
tion of (ten. Irvin's popularity thus :—lf
a man can run (dwell of his opponent 1336
voles in one Congressional Disstrict, com
posed of three Locdfoco counties to one
Whig how much could he run ahead in
the -24 districts? I leave the question
to your correspondet to solve.
It is idle for any one to pretend that the
"Popular Congressman" is not popular.
Gen. Irvin's qualifications are also
grossly misrepresented by i•Old Mifflin"
as every one who knows the Genearal
can testify. A man who can manage his
own busines, when as extensive us Gen.
Irvin's, and (I() it with so much advantage
to himself, can safely be entrusted with
the Aims of State.
In conclusion, I can safely assure you
that if "Old Mifflin" expects to injure
Gen. Irvin's prospects of a nomination, by
these assassin-like stabs, he will fail in the
cowardly attempt.

A Shocking Occurrence.
The Phil'a. Gazette of Friday says:
This morning, about five o'clock the
watchman at the corner of Fifth and Spruce
streets, while going his round was alarm
ed by the cries of a female, and proceeding
in the direction of the sound, discovered
a woman lying upon the pavement in front
of the house of Leopold P. Coursault, Ni).
117 Spruce street dreadfully injured and
bleeding profusely— one of her legs being
fractured, the large blood vessels of the
limb ruptured, and her head exhibiting an
awful contosidh. The unfortunate fe
male proved to be Mrs. Frontin, the
second wife of Mons. Frontin, a French
teacher. Frontin occupied two rooms at
Mr. Coursault's house; and the wife's
story is, that her liusband had threatened
to murder her, and that to escape his vi
olence, she, in her fright, threw herself
from the second story window. The'poor
woman has only been married a few weeks,
and if her story be correct, she was fright
ened into the marriage and has been in
such dread of her husband ever since, that
she has been obliged to flee from his per.
secution, and keep herself concealed; and
he has constantly pursued and .sought her
out. Mrs. Frontin is not expected to sur
vive her injuries. Iler husband has been
arrested and committed to prison.
The first wile of the above named Frontin,
died in this city only a few !eoliths since,
and we have been infermed that the se
cond wife immediately after their marriage
by a clergyman, refused to live with him,
and persisted in this refusal for some time.
Frontin became excited on the subject, said
that he could not account for the conduct
of his wife, and finding it impossible to re
concile the difficulty that existed be
tween them, said that 1;e was anxious to
to obtain a divorce. Ile is a Frenchman
by birth, about 40 years of age, and one or
two children by his first wife are now liv-

getable Pills are certain to prevent the a
bove dreadful consequences, becatise they
purge from the body those morbid humors
which, when fluatieg in the general circu

rush of blood to the head, a pressure upon
the brain, and other dreadful results.—
From two to six of said Indian Vegetable
Pills, taken every night, on going to bed,
will in a short time so completely cleanse
the body from every thing that is opposed
to health that sodden death, apoplexy,
bursting of blood vessels, or indeed any mal
ady, will be in a manner impossible.
Wright's Vegetable Indian Pills also aid
and improve digeston, and purify the blood
and therefore give health and vigor to the
