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 SOUND NATIONAL cones:cc:, regulated by
the will and authority of the nation.
2. AN ADEQUATE 'iv:vs:run, with fair protec
tion to AMERICAN INDUSTRY.
3. JUST RESTRAINTS ON TREEXECUTIVE Pow
-1111, embracing further restrictions on the exercise
of the veto.
4. A faithful administration of the PUBLIC no
MAIN, with AN EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION of the
proceeds of sales of it among all the states.
5. AN HONEST AND ECONOMICAL ADMINIRTRA•
TION OP THE GOVERNMENT, 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 six
oLE TEAM.
These objects attained. I think that we should
cease to be afflicted with bad administration of the
Government."—Henry Clay.

The Horrors of corder Warfare.
A gentleman who recently arrived at New Or
bans, has furnished the editor of the Bee with the
following epoch:eerie of the many acts of cruelty at
.tendant on the border warfare now waged between
lawless bands of Texans and Mexicans:
•
In the early part of last month, three men (de
tached from a !And of twelve) left their encamp
ment on the Igiteces. near Corpus Christi, and pro
ceeded to the Agua Dolce, a stream some sixteen
miles distant,for the purpose of stealing the horses of
a party of Mexican traders encamped on that stream.
After reaching their destination they found, instead
of traders, three Mexican soldiers, grazing their
horses un the prairie, who yielded up their arms
without any resistance whatever. The captain
lipf the Texans wished to kill them immediately, but
was dissuaded, for a moment, by a young man who
protested against the perpetration of so horrid a
deed. Determined, however, on the destruction of
two of them, the leader started off the young man
in the direction of the camp with one prisoner—
the elder of the three, telling hint to ride on slowly
and ho would overtake him with the other. inch few
minutes. Scarcely had he crossed the stream, when
the two soldiers left with the captain savagely
butchered with a hunting knife, their bodies strip
ped, and their horses taken possessesion of and dri
ven off towards the bandits, camp. The trail of the
young man who had started off before this tragedy
hta enacted, was closely followed, and turning
round the great Chaparel Thicket that borders the
401 ,
stream, the n found him not on horseback
with the p , but on the ground breathing his
last, having een shot through the body with three
balls by a party of Mexicans belonging to the same
company with those whom he had a few minutes
before killed. At night the Texans assembled every
man, and started in pusuit of the Mexicans, with
the avowed determination of killing every one they
met, or losing their own lives in the effort.'

The Egg-Etatehing Exhibition.
The Philadelphia Saturday Inquirer says.—The
exhibition at the Masonic Hall is really curlew,.
The entire process of hatching eggs by warm water,
or rather by heat thin] produced, may be seen in
all its various stages, froth the fresh egg to the young
chicken. The machine is an oblong wooden box
about 5 feet long, 3i wide, and 4i high, with eight
compartments open to thesight, by means of glazed
doors, in which the eggs are deposited. The chick
ens make their appearance in 21 days after the eggs
ate deposited in the machine. By the aide of the
box is a table, on which aro a number of saucers:
The first contains a fresh egg, the second a third day
egg, in which the heating of the heart is percepti
ble, althongh no blood is visible. After a few hours
more, however, two vesicles containing blood, make
their appearance—one forming the left ventricle, and
the other the great artery. The auricle of the heart
is next seen, and in the whole pulsation is evident.
1 In a sixth day egg, tire lungs are distinguishable,
and the full gush of blood from the heart is distinct
ly apparent. In a 12th day egg, the orbit of sight
are visible, and in a fifteenth, the infinity of phenom
ena in this wonderful peice of vital mechanism is
elaborated into more perfect form, and it presents
an appearance closely approaching the natural state.
Eggs are shown to visitors in all their various sta
ges.
It is stated that perfect eggs from any bird,
front the wren to the eagle, can be elicited into life
in the same way, and persons bringing eggs of ca
naries, gold finches, &c. may place them in the ma
chine, marking the eggs with their initials, upon
payment of 25 cents for each egg. They will also
receive a free admission ticket, in order to enable
them to watch tho progress of the young birds to
maturity. Machines are sold by the proprietors,
the largest ones at $l2O, the small at $75 each.
A GREAT Fans AT MIDSON.-A correspondent
the New York Commercial states that on passing
Hudson on Friday evening, about 7 o'clock, he
saw a large portion of the lower part of the city on
flames. It appears that the steamboat Fairfield,
which plies between New York and Hudson, was
to leave the latter place at 6 o'clock, and while kind
ling her fires, a spark from her pipe fell upon a
large tour story frame building occupied by Seneca
Butts as a wool warehouse. It being very dry, and
a wind from the Westward, this building, with the
large quantity of wool which it contained, was soon
destroyed. The fire had soon spread to Still street,
and had destroyed, when we reacned there, upward
of twenty buildings.
The extensive oil factory of Barnard, Curtiss &
Co. was in flames, and the firemen were rolling the
oil into the river. Some of the oil casks having
burst and deluged the wharfs, two of them were
burned down to the water's edge. A schooner ly
ing at the wharf loaded with flour, having groun
ded, in consequence of the lowness of the tide, was
' also burned to the water's edge. It was estimated that
between 1 and 200,000 dollars' worth of property
was destroyed, and when he left the dock the fire
was still raging, and the wind blowing almost a
gale. The depot of the Hudson and Berkshire
Rail Road Company was in great danger.
A barge belonging to the Hudson Tow Boat
Company, together wits several sloops, was at the
wharf, and would have been destroyed had not the
small steamboat which plies between Albany and
Hudson arrived in time to fasten upon them and
haul them into the stream. The steamboat Fair
field had abandoned her trip to New York, and pro
ceeded to Catskill to bring up the Catskill fire com
panies.
The Hudson fire department is one of the most
efficient in the state, but with such a wind prevail
ing it seemed impossible for human exertion to ar
rest it.
The greatest losers are supposed to be Seneca
Butts and Barnard, Curtiss 6.; Co. Mr. Curtiss, of
the latter firm, te, we understand, in r , ^-s'^ au
business.'
The rece”' a 1 iludson destroyed 40 building.,
sans sue loss of property is estimated at $150,000.
The pin factory of Messrs. Slocum, Jillson
Co., at Poughkeepsie, manufactures thirteen hund
red pounds of pins per day of various sizes, and
they are getting additional machinery ready by
which they can soon manufacture twenty-five
hundred pounds daily. They employ in the vari
ous branches of their operation one hundred hands
regularly. They use 380 tons of wire and be
tween two and three thousand reams of paper per
annum. Their pins sell upon the average at twen
ty-five cents per pound, making the annual value of
their sales, when their additional works are in full
operation, at five hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollars.

Zee!) it before the 2eople!
That James K. Polk, the Loctioco can
didate for President, in a speech delivered
on the Sd of April, 1843, declared that he
considered "Diatribution and a PRO.
'I'ECTIVE TARIFF RUINOUS to the
interests of the country," and that he
" STEADILY AEU AT ALL TIMES OPPOSED

Keep it before the People.
That this same James K. Polk voted for

NO MEANS SO LOW AS HE
WOULD HAVE DESIRED IT TO

That James h. Polk was u great advocate

That the Locofocus who avow so much
holy horror at our coonskins, gourds, lug
cabins, songs, &c., were the very party
who devised, instituted and first practised
this system of electioneering by their
Jack-son songs; pole raising, &c., arid that
even now in Polk's own state they have
adopted and carry in their processions
stinking polk stalks, hickory bushes, &c.

From the Philadelphia Saturday Enquirer.
The alormOns.
The steamboat Waverly arrived at
St. Louis, left Nauvoo on the afternoon
of Thursday week, and Warsaw in the
night. Sl►e lay at Nauvon some time,
and ascertained that Gen. Joe. Smith had
2300 men underarms, and ready for de•
Pensive operations. At 'Warsaw and
Carthage, it was understood about 3,000
citizens were nder arms, but were wait.
ing an additional force of a thousand men,
before they directed an attempt to serve
the writs in the hands of the officer.
The Cincinnati Gazette says
Joe smith has called in all his adhe
rents. Our hope is that the belief that
there will be bloody work if the tight
commenced. will keep both parties from
conflict. If that does not, nothing will
for the civil authority is powerless, and
the Governor of Illinois will do nothing
until the mischief is past; and should
blood flow, we shall expect to hear of the
extinction of the Mormon race. A friend
just from the scene of action, says that
everything looks as if war between the
parties was inevitable.
The Governor of Illinois, it is said, has
granted an order to try Joe Smith, the
Mormon prophet, for unofficer-like con•
duct. A mandamus has also been issued
by Judge Pope of Illinois, against the
Nauvoo Council, for ordering the office
of the Expositor to be demolished, and
thus exceeding the authority granted by
the charter of the city. The people to
the neighborhood of Nauvoo were orga
nizirn, into military companies at the la..
test dates, and arming themselves furs
serious conflict.
iheiLlOjsiftepublican of Monday
week says:
Gov. Ford, of Illinois, is at Carthage;
to negotiate with Joe Smith, just as he
did prior to the last Congressional elec
tion—when he, or his agents, visited St-
Louis, contrived a plan to get a writ
agaisnt Joe, held it in terrorem over him
until he had agreed to transfer the whole
Mormon vote to Hodge, the Lucofoco can
didate, and then let him loose. It will
be done. The Locofocus cannot dispense
with the three or four thousand votes con
trolled by Joe Smith.
The Reporter of the same date says:
Nauvoo is said to be destitute of an
adequate supply of provisions. An or
der for a large quantity of flour was sent
to this city on Friday, and the steamer
0-prey took up 250 bbls. Saturday was
the lay appointed for an advance upon
the " Holy City." Hancock county is
under martial law, one portion being con
trolled bg the Mormons, and the other by
the anti-Mormons. No doubt many of
the rumors from that neighborhood ari
highly exaggerated ; but what the result
of the excitement there thay,,be, .we can
not -- • are inclined to
believe that there will be no serious con
flict between the parties.
The St. Louis New Era says :—"The
reports from Nauvoo, still indicate an ap
proaching contest; and it will probably
be a war of extermination. The citizens
are arming with the most deadly and de
termined purpose to rid the country of
their Nauvoo neighbors. The Mormons
arc preparing for defence ; they have
about 4,000 persons under arms, hold
ing in their possession the public arms,
of the State of Illinois, which were cor
ruptly delivered to them by the public
officers of that State, as a bribe to obtain
Mormon votes. They are ready to use
these arms to murder the Christian chi--
izetis of tine surrounding counties."
Surrender of Zoe Smith,
We have just received, by the Western
Mail, St- Louis papers of the 22t1
ult•—
We take the following from the Repor
ter of that city, or that date:—
The Mormon difficulties have not
reached a crisis. Joe Smith and several
others voluntarily surrendered themselves
to a magistrate in Hancock county and
were discharged. The citizens in the
neighborhood still threaten war, but have
nut yet made the contemplated attack
upon Nauvoo."
CATCH THE THIEF.-MOUE STEALE4G.
—The Cincinnati Enquirer, Polko Phoko
paper, recommends the formation of' Hick -
ory Clubs.' Whereupon the Pittsburg
American says : 'Cannot Polk stand by
himself, that this call is made toe stealing
the hickory poles and whips and wattles
by which the party was whipped into ranks
like slaves, some ten or twelve years ago.
'rho' not honest, it may be emblematic
enough—the hickory being universally
used throughout Tennessee for chastising
slaves. W e have ourselves seen Polk's
hired out slaves having it administered
not small.'
The Nashville Duiwer of the 14th
inst. says—
During the last Gubernatorial canvass
in this State, interrogatories were pro.
pounded to Governor Jones and Col.
Polk by Messrs G. W. Smith, R. F..
Titus, C. Steward, and others. Col.
Polk's answers are published at length in
the Nashville Union of June 6. 1843,
The last question it: the series is as fol
lows:
4' Are you in favour of the Tariff Act
now in force passed by the last Congress?"
To which Col. Polk replies thus—,

now in force passed by the last Congress.
It is, in my opinion, in many of its pro.
visions highly protective and not design.

The Centre Democrat's Opinion
of Diuhlenberg in 1835.
KrLooking over a file of the Centre
Democrat, a kw days ago, we found un
der the Editorial Head of August 29, 1835
the following—
Tw•elve Reasons
Why no Democrot con vote for 11. A.
Aluhlenberg.
Ist. He opposed the Democri.tie party
in 1805 and in 1808, and stood prominent
as an enemy or Governor Snyder.
2.1. He ',inked with the Federalists in
1812, and 13, in opposition to Madison.
3,1. in 1617 and 1820, Mr. Muldenherg
xas one of the must virulent and perse•
cuting of the Iliester party. it was hint
that urged upon the !Hester administi ;I
lion, the dismissal of every democrat,
who held an office in the State.
4th. Because in 1823, he commenced
the political campaign as the opponent of
the democratic party, but 'afterwards,
from family ambition coalesced with his
cousin Shultze.
50. Because he was dedicated and or
tlained to the Sacred Ministry, which he
deserted in 1828, for political prefer
ment.
Gth. Because Church and State should
be kept seperate and unconnected.
7th. Because he encouraged Anti•ma
sonary in 1829, and opposed Jackson
and Woll.
Bth. Because he dodged the Bank vote
in Congress, assigning as a reason, that
he was a large Stockholder, and sustain
ed that monied power up to the time he
sold out his stock.
9th. B.•cause iu August, 1834, he pre
sided at a meeting in Bells county, and
wrote tie proceedings, unequivocally de
claring the worth, ability, firottless,democ
racy.and claims of George Wolf to a re
election, yet he unites with Anti-mason
ry and lends himself to divide and defeat
the Democratic party.
10. Because his nomination was made
by !action in opposition to the expressed
will of the people, and in an entire dis
regard of the usages and customs of the
democratic party.
11. Because he is opposed to our splen
did system of Internal Improvements,
whcilt now yield a revenue of upwards o
three thousand dollars each day.
The editor of the Democrat continued
to express the same opinion of Mr. Muh.
lenberg up to the time that the corrupt
clique of Porter and his office holders suc•
ceeded in opposition to the will of fhe peo
ple, in placing him "upon the ticket. lie
can now laud Muhlenberg, and print the
name of the honest old veteran farmer
who has never shrunk from his duty to
his country or his felloW men, thus

National Prize Banner:
The proceedings of a meeting of a num•
bar of distinguished Whigs from differ
ent States of the Union, held in this city
in the early part of May, were published
some time ago in the Intelligencer, and
apprizeil . the Whigs of the Union that a
PRIZE BANNER would be prepared and
presented, on the 4th of March next, to
that State which shall at the next Presi
dential election (ihis fall) give the largest
proportional increase of its W big vote
over its vote of 1840. Such a prize is
surely worthy to be contended for by the
W higs of all the States, and proud of her
trophy may that State be which shall win
it. We understand that the committee,
upon which are sonic of the most distin
guished W hips in the Union, are taking
active measures to procure the neccessary
funds and have the Banner prepared in a
style worthy th 6 occasion. We have
heard of several states which are deter•
mined to make an efflirt, at least, to win
it, and will make an Ain't, with confidence
of success. Among those we have na•
med are Pennsylvania, Maryland, Rhode
Island, Vermont, Georgia, Alabama,
Connecticut, New York, New Jersey,
and little - Delaware. We are not sure,
from what we hear, that Missouri will not
stand a very good chance for the prize,
which after all, will fall to the lot of sonic
State from Which less is promised than
from those named:
