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

1. A SOUND NATIONAL CURRENCY, regulated by
the will and authority of the nation.
2. AN ADEQUATE nstrENtle, with fair protec
tion to AMERICAN INDUSTRY.
3. JUST RESTRAINTS ON TIIEEXECUTIVE Pow

of the veto.

Annexation of Texas.
~ O liver Oldschool," under date of the 23rd inst.,
writes as follows :
etated in my letter last evening that I thought
it likely a joint resolution would be offered to the
Senate, in its legislative character. Mr. MeDuffie
yesterday read a resolution in the Senate in Execu
tive session, which he brought before that body in
legislative session this morning, the report of*hich
MB to declare that whenever the authorities of
Texas shall concur therein, Texas shall he incorpo-
rated into the United Staten upon the basis and
tenns agreed upon in the compact or treaty lately
eignd by the constituted authorities of the two gov
emments. Mr. Men was driven to this, it is be
lieved, by the force of Mr. Cheate argument, and
by his proving, by Mr. Calhoun's own language,
that the treaty-making power of this country had no
authority to involve the country in war. The res
olution was not offered to-day, but notice given that
it would be.
More Hon atn.---The Baltimore Argus contains
a private letter from Constantinople, dated March
27th, 1844 in which is enclosed a translation of a
letter from the Bishop of Scopia to the Greek Patri
arch at Constantinople, giving an account of the
outrages on a christian sect, on the borders of Bul
garia, by the Albanians. This letter says:
The men they have tied to columns, and have
committed upon the women and their daughters acts
the most attrocious ; after this they have hung the
men up by their feet, and forced their wives to marl
them by means of smoke from straw burned under
their heads. They have violated old women of
eighty years, and young girls of ten. They have
pierced the boys with their lances,and roasted them
like sheep." The letter records other particulars of
their diabolical acts.
pj The Lexington Inquirer says, when Col.
Johnson heard of the nomination of Mr.Frolinghuy
fen, as the Candidate for Vice President, by the
Whig Convention, he threw up his hands and ex
claimed, " Mercy on me ! I would rather run
against any other man in the United States!"--
His moral character is without a blemish.
POPULAR RRILORI.-It his mistake to suppose
that the clothes worn by kings are made of solid gold
and that the queen lives on diamons dissolved in
water.
It is a mistake to suppose that newspapers are
printed for amusement, and that printers deem it a
compliment when a friend begs half admen to give
away.
It is an error to think that a long face is essential
to good morals, or that laughing is an unpardonable
crime.
It is a mistake to suppose that big heeds always
contain the most intellect. Some of them are like
large turnips, rather cerkey.
No IND TO Put it out a little further."
said a doctor who was examining the tongue of a
female patient; she complied " A little further still,
if you please"—she obeyed again. " Put it out as
far as possible, madam."
“Mercy, doctor says she, ” you must think there
is no end to a I o roan's tongue.

INb or VEssELS, &c.—W right's Italian Ve
getable Pills are certain !invent the at
hose dreadful consequences, because they
purge from the body those morbid hufnots
which, when ft 'Ming in the gent rat circu

rush of blood to the head, a pressure upon
the brain, and other dtendful 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
ady, will be io .t 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 if the adver
