Whig Principles.
"The principal objects which, I euppoee, 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 SOUND NATIONAL CURRENCY, regulated by
the will and authority of the nation.
2. AN ADSQ,UATE REVENUE, with fair protec
tion to AMERICAN INDUSTRY.
3. Inst. RESTRAINTS ON THEErecums Pow.
an. embracing farther restrictions on the exercise
of the veto.
4. A faithful administration of the PUBLIC De.
YA/E, with AN EQUITABLE DIBTI/lIICTION of the
proceeds of sales of it among all the states.
5. AN itoNEsr AND ECONOMICAL ADMINISTRA
TION or THIS nor ER NMENT, leaving public officers
perfect freedom of thought and of the right of suf
frage, but with suitable restraints against improper
interference in elections.
6. An amendment of the Constitution, limiting
the incumbent of the Presidential office to a era-
GLE TERM.
These objects attained. I think that we should
cease to be afflicted with bad administration of the
Government."—Henry Clay.

Any person desirous of seeing a tine collection
of paintings can ho gratified by calling at the
room of Mr. J. WILSON, on the second floor of tho
old Court House. Mr. Wilson is a young man,
rising rapidly in his profession. Any ono wishing
a correct likeness taken can be accommodated by
calling at his room. He certainly deserves encour-
agement as an artist. Call and see for yourselves.

One Day for Election.
If we d, not mistake, there is a Bill now before
Congress, ..voich proposes to designate one day for
the election of President and Vice President of the
Unit.; States, and to have the day identical in all
parts of the Union. That is to say, it proposes to
fix one day, in which all the people of the Union
shall assemble together in their respective States,
and vote for the two highest offices in the gift of the
people. Under existing lawa, it is well known, that
elections with reference to the offices stained take
place, some on the first Monday of November,
some' on the second Tuesday, some on the second
Monday, some on the first Wednesday, &c. The
results in one State are thus snide to influence the
contest in another, and the people do not, therefore,
vote with the some deliberation of judgment. The
condition of affairs is especially unfortunate with
regard to Pennsylvania. This year, for example,
we will have two great and exciting elections—one
for Governor and members of Congress, on Tues.
dag the Bth of October, and another Presidential
election, on Friday, the Ist of November, Our
election, moreover, is likely to have an important
influence upon New York, for while we will vote
for President on the first Friday of November, the
New Yorkers will not vote for several days after.
It would be far better, as it seems to us, for the elec
tion of President to take place during the same day
in all parts of the Union, in conformity with the
bill above referred to. We cannot indeed, imagine
a twittery objection against the measure, and the
wonder is, that Congress with so little to do, should
not before this, hove acted upon it. Under present
circumstances, we not only have the excitement of
our own elections, but we participate in those of
our neighbors. A disposition to bet or gamble, is
also provokes), the contest is kept up longer that is
necessary, the public mind is on the stretch for
weeks, and comics of disorder semen take place ,
which under the single-day system be avoid
ed. Perhaps we have not paid t attention
to the subject, but thus far we et with a
cogent argument against the p ni. We
trust, therefore, that the auth or o the Bill will
4
make a vigorous effort to have it acted upon before
the adjournment of Congress, especially as it is
probable that the members are determined to leave
'Washington in the cause of a few weeks. Thus
far the session has been productive of very few
salutary measures for the country, and the adoption
of the One Day Election Bill would, we feel sans-
Bed, be regarded by the people at large, with very
general favor.—Saturday Inquirer.
A FRACAS AT NACVOO,
The St. Louie Republican of a late date, con
tains an account of a disturbance which took place
at Nauvoo, on the 26th ult.:
It seems that Joe Smith having ordered his po
lice to arrest a man by the name of Spencer, for
an assault on his brother in his own house—the
residence of his mother also—the accused refused
to become prisoner, alleging it was illegal to arrest
without a writ from the Mayor. All the parties,
however, collected round the Masonic Hall, or
court-house. Jo Smith, being present, ordered the
police and the people to take said Spencer into cus
tody. The constable having placed hands on him,
Spencer put himself into a lighting position, and
was assisted by Dr. Foster, and his brother, younger
Foster, and also James Highy—who said they
would not submit to the authority of the Prophet.
Joe Smith put hands, to assist in taking him when
the younger Foster took out a pistol, presented it,
and said he would shoot the Prophet. The Proph
' et got hold of the pistol, and held firmly round the
britch, until, by the assistance of Rockwell, a second,
the Prophet succeeded in getting the pistol from
Foster. The Dr. and Loaner at this time took up
stands, and vociferated they would kill the Prophet
—said he was a villain and an imposter, and that he
knew it: that they would be doing a meritorious act
to rid the world of such a villain, an imposter and
tyrant. Higby said he would certainly shoot him
—at any rate told him he remembered by-gone
times—knew of blood being sited on the island op
posite ; that he, the Prophet, was the right man.
He (Higby) belonged to his band—had sustained
him by money and force: be knew the Mormon
Prophet, Joe. Smith, was the author of murders,
and it was high time he should die, and he would
kill him. The Prophet got his hand cut, amd his
nervous system shook. Finally, the authorities
succeeded in bringing up the three traversers before
the court. They were all fined, but took appeals."
Flogging in the Army.
Many of tke leading English papers continue to
take ground against the barbarous system of flog
ging in the Army and Navy. A shocking case
was mentioned in a late number of the London
Dispatch. A private named Martin Webster, re
ceived 150 lashes in the presence of 3500 men.—
The prisoner, after being fastened to the triangle.
and upon receiving the first lash, implored for mer
cy, declared that if mercy Imp shown him ho would
be a good soldier in future. o regard was paid to
his intercessions; and he received twenty-three
lashes. It was discovered that he had gone off in a
convulsive tit; his pulse ceased to beat, his face
turned quite black, and he was totally senseless.--
He was released, and laid upon the grass; but seve
ral minutes elapsed before animation could be re
stored. He was then rerouted to the hospital in an
almost hopeless condition.
The editor, commenting on the above, seys
This instance affords a grand proof of;be appalling
effects of corporal punishment upon the mind ; be
cause it is impossible that twenty-three strokes
could have produced so great an influence upon the
body. This men's mind may remain unhinged for
life ; or he may die speedily from the effects of his
punishment. His death then will be in consequence
of his turpitude--a penalty not ordained by the tri
bunal which tried him. Is this justice? However
depraved he n-irLt h,, ho had done nothing worthy
of death. When the account of this transaction--
finds its wry into the Conunental journals, what
* o k .inion will foreigners form of England, English
men, and Eng!iz! . . institutions? Such dreadfui
scenes make us blush for our country ; and we feel
I ashanied—deeply ashamed—of the men who, under
Idle denomination of our legislators, allow so infa
mous, so cruel, and inhuman a statute to remain
amongst our codes."

bone dreadful consequences, because they
purge from the body those morbid humors
which, when floating 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 sudden death, apoplexy,
bursting of blood vessels, or indeed any mal

Wright's Vegetable Indian Pills also aid

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
