Whig Principles.
"The principal objects which, I suppose, engage
the common desire and the common exertions of
the Whig party, to bring about, in the Government
of the United States are :
1. A souNn NATIONAL CUORENCY, regulated by
the will and authority of the nation.
2. AN ADEQUATE REvEsus, with fair protec
tion to AMERICAN INDusEnr..
3. JusE RESTRAINTS ON TREENECUTIVE Pow-
RR, embracing farther restrictions on the exercise
of the veto.
4. A faithful administration of the PUBLIC no.
SLAIN, with AN EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION of the
proceeds of sales of it among all the states.
- G. AN MONEST AND ECONOMICAL ADMINTEITRA
TION OF TOE GOVERNMENT, reeving public officers
perfect freedom of thought and of the right of suf
frage, but with suitable restraints against improper
interference in erections.
6. An amendment of the Constitution, limiting
the incumbent of the Presidential office to a me-
OLE TERN.
These objects attained. l think that we should
cease to be afflicted with bad administration of the
Government."—Henry Clay.

Allotting of the Public Printing and
Binding to the Lowest Bidder.
On Tuesday the 19th ult., at 11 o'clock, the
Speaker and Members of the Senate, being introdu
ced into the hall of the House of Representatives,
in Pursuance of a joint resolution of both Houses,
for the purpose of publicly allotting the public prin
ting and binding to the lowest bidder ; the Speak
ers proceeded to open and publish the proposals of
the several individuals who had presented proposals
to dd the public printing at the rate per centum
below the prices of the law of 1843, as follows:

The English printing was then allotted for three
years, to J. M. G. LNSCDRE, at the rate of 50 per
cent below the prices of the law of 1843: and his
bonds being examined, were approved. The Ger
man printing was allotted to A. Born HAMILTON,
et 38 per cent below the former prices, but his bond
not being approved, the German printing was then
allotted to JACOB ILIAD, at 27} per cent, as the next
lowest bidder, whose bonds were then examined
and approved.—Telegraph.
FREE TRADE AND LOCOFOCOISM.
A a recent Locofoco celebration in Albany, the
following toast was drank :
By E. Miller—Richard M. Johnson—The Hero
of the Thames, the champion of FREE TRADE,
of the freedom of the press and of speech, though
absent he is not forgotten. True to himself, his
party and his country, he always is present in the
minds of the true Democracy.
Here are the principles of the party unmasked—
Free Trade and Van Buren—Free Trade and John
son—Free Trade and Calhoun—the few setting
themselves up to dictate to the many. And yet
some of the pop-guns of the party have the impu
dence to assert that they are " as good Tariff men
u the Whigs !"—Bah l—such sentiments may do
for people who are too ignorant or too biggotcd to
examine for themselves—but among a community
of intelligent and enquiring fremen, it wont go
down. The great body of the people, thank for
tune, aro not too blind to see that if they would sup
port the Tariff they must support Maar CLAY
and his party who stand pkdged before the whole
Union, from one extremity to the other, to uphold
this great principle upon which the beet interests
of the country aro so firmly based.
AN Auanrc►N PosiA, or, as it is called an Amer
ican lion was killed in Lewis county, New York, last
week. The animal is very rare now in the United
Stales. The following description of him is given.
He is five feet nine inches long, with a tail three
feet and one inch. He has no mane, or
brush at the end of the tail like the lion, though of
the same color. He has a round head and broad
muzzle, and body more slender and less elevated
than the lion. The upper parts of the body are of
a bright silvery fawn and tawney, hairs terminating
in whitish tips beneath, and on the insides of the
limbs ho is nearly white, and more completely so on
the throat, chin and upper lip, the head of an irregu
lar mixture of black and gray ; outside of the ears at
the base, and atilt° place whiskers take their origin,
and the extremity of the tail, is black.
A steam plough has been introduced in Scotland,
for ploughing in morrows and boggy land. where
horses cannot be employed.
A FATAL EPIDEMIC is said to he raging at this
time in Rockingham county, North. Carolinia.--
The Raleigh Register says all accounts concur in
representing it as a fever of a highly malignant
character, accompanied with congestion, in some
cases of the brain, in others of the lungs, liver or
bowels. In some families it has appeared as the
congestive scarlet fever, and the number of deaths
from the epidemic in the county, since Christmas,
is estimated at from 250 to 300.
ARRIVAL OF TrIE CA LEDONIA.-Interes
hing Newa from Europe.— the Caledonia
arrived at Boston on Friday morning, af
ter a tempestuous voyage of seventeen
days, having lelt Liverpool on the sth
ult. It brings intelligence of the convic
tion of O'Conr.ell and his compatriots, a
verdict which had excited a profound sen
sation. Judgment will not be pronounced
until the ensuing term. What it will be
is as yet conjecture, but it is stated that the
Doke of Wellington has already in timatd
that O'Connell is not to be sent to prison
or otherwise pa iitshed, the moral efil•ct of
a conviction liviipz sufficient. O'Connell
has protested against the verdict.
. .
An inquiry in relation to the Oregon
territory was made in the House of Com
mons, on the 9nd ult.. A paragraph in
the European Times, under the head of
Oregon territory, speaks e ofa body of troops
which are about to embark for the Oregon
territory, to be employed in time boundary
service, under Colonel Estcomb. This is
a mistake ; the boundary service, alluded
toil the Northeastern boundary survey.
The Commercial news is unimportant.
Money continues abundant, and interest
only two per cent. Cotton has been
slightly depressed by the Manchester
spinners' combination to buy light and
work short time.
WASHINGTON NEWS.—The !lOU. JOHN
C. CALHOUN, the newly appointed Secre
tary of State, has accepted the station
and is every day expected at Washington.
The lion. Joni Y. MASON, Secretary
of the Navy, arrived in Washington on
Monday, to take upon himself the duties
of his new station.
Gen. HENDER‘ON, the Texian Commis
sioner, appointed on the part of that Re
public to negotiate the treaty for annexa
tion, left Natchitoches in Louisiana, on
his way to Washington, on the 7th ult.
His arrival at the Capitol is daily expected.
A re..olution has pasted the U. S. Sen
ate for the adjournment of Congress on
the 27th of May.—This rend ition, so
loudly demanded by public opinion, yet
requires the :Ascot of the House.
V'SUDDEN DEATH, APOPLEXY, BURST
ING OF VESSELS, &c.—Wright's Indian Ve
getable Pills are certain to }nevert the at
hose dreadful consequences, because they
purge from the body those morbid humors
which, when floating in the general circu
lation, are the cause of a determination or
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 bod} from every thing that is opposed
to health that sudden death, • apoplexy,
bursting of blood vessels, or indeed any mal
ady, will he in I manner impossible.
Wright's Vegetable Indian Pills also aid
and improve digeston, and purify the blood
and therefore give health and vigor to the
whole frame, as well as drive disease of
every name from the body.
Beware of Counterfeits.—The public are
cautioned against the many spurious medi
cines which in order to deceive are made
in outward appearance, closely to resem
ble the above wonderful Pills.
OBSERVE.—Purchase only of the adver•
tired agents. or at the office of the Gener
al Depot, No. 169 Race street, Philadel.
phia, and be particular to ask for WRIGHT'
Indian Vegetable Pills.
- The genuine medicines can he obtained
at the store of Wm. Stewart, Huntingdon.
Da. Wimit's Baxs.tm OF WILD Cumin,—
Now that this preparation is well known to be a
more certain cure for incipient Consumption, Asth
ma, Liver Complaint. Coughs, and all similac af
fections, than any other remedy ever known, there
will be, and now are found those so villanously
wicked as to concoct a spurious and perhaps poi
sonous mixture, and try to palm it off as tha genu
ine Balsam. We raise no false alarm. An imita
tion appeared in Rochester, N. Y., last winter; and
in other parts, another article somewhat re
sembling Dr. Wistar's Balsam in name is sold.—
We advi.e the public of these schemes, that their
health may not be trifled with, nor ourselves plun
dered of our just rights. Dr. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry is 'a new medicine, and more effica
cious than any other known. We have Hu) written
signatures of such men as Recorder Talmadge,
Counseller Williams, and John Power, D. D., of
New York ; H. Gouge, Esq., Member of Parlia
ment, and scores of others, to prove that it had cu
red Asthma, Bkeding of the Lungs, &c. &c. &c.,
after the physician's skill has ceased to benefit.
For sale by Thomas Read, Huntingdon and
James Ore, Hollidaysburg.

Furnace to Let.
The Valley Furnace is situate on Silver
Creek,near Pottsville in the Schuylkill Coal
Region.
Beds a Anthracite Coal and Strata of
Iron ore are opened for work, close by the
stack. The public railway runs by the
works, giving a daily communication at all
seasons, with the city of Philadelphia.
Limestone is cheaply had by canal or rail
way.
The ore is exactly the same as that of the
coal (fields of Great Britain, from which
neale all the iron is made in that count•}
It fluxes very easily. The black band"
iron stone. from which the Scotch gray iron
is made, exists in this coal basin ; but no
search has been made for workable beds,
the discovery being recent.
The Furnace is newly built, with a good
steam engine and blowing apparatus. Its
yield is about 35 tons weekly, and there is
an extensive consumption of Iron in the coal
district. There is no other Furnace in wor
king order in that region.
he Furnace will be rented on very favor
able terms to any person having sufficient
capital to conduct the business properly.

ber, (who has held these sales for the past

ing this combination, the sales will not be
stopped, but on the contrary, as he will now
rely more than ever on the patronage of the
country Merchants, the sales will be held
every Tuesday morning,at the auction store,
1208 Market Street, and his arrangements
with the Manufacturers, both of this city

him a constant and full supply of every de

The mere fact of so great an effort being
made to put down these sales, is the best
evidence the country Merchants can have,
that it is for his interest to sustain them.
