CONORMEIS
met on Monday last, for the short session, limited
to the 4th of March. The President's Message is
looked for with considerable anxiety, as it is ex
pected to recommend the immediate annexation of
Texas, on the ground that the voters have declared
in favor of this measure at the late election. It is
also supposed that the President will again urge
upon Congress his favonte Fiscal Agent scheme;
and perhaps the repeal or modification of the Whig
Tariff of 1842, agreeably to the voice of the people
as obtained through fraud and deception at the re
cent election.
Whatever John Tyler may recommend, and the
Loco Polkats wish to perform, we hope the WWI; I
Senate will reserve the annexation of Texas, and
the repeal or modification of the Tariff, until after
President Polk's inauguration. The glory of these
•measures should be given to his administration, for
it of right belongs to the Polkats.
If we receive the Message in time, it shall be
spread before our readers next week.
We shall endeavor to give, from time to time, a
brief but comprehensive account of the "sayings
and doings" at Washington.
cOln to-day's paper we give more official elec
tion returns. We intend to publish those of all
the States as soon as we receive and can make
room for them. They will be useful not only fur
present information, but also for future reference.

The New Orleans Tropic thus announces the re
sult of the Presidential election in this State:—
"It is hardly necessary for us again to refer to
Pennsylvania. As has been her wont, with one
exception in twenty years, she has cast her vote for
men deadly hostile to her best interests. Of course
she has voted for Polk and Dallas, and the Tariff
of 1842 !' Bah!"

We find, myth° U. S. Gazette,tin the Madiso
nian a letter, pied from the N‘lshville Union,
written by rEteneral James Hamilton, to J. J. B.
Southall, E 4, before the election, Isom which we
make a few extracts, to shoW what IV South means
by electing Mr. Polk, and whom and what the
people of Pennsylvania have been aiding. General
Hamilton says:
"It is in vain to conceal the fact that he [Henry
Clay] has taken ground against the South and
West, on a question involving the highest interests
of the whole Union, and that he is not of us,
but of them, for those who authoritatively announce
there shall be no more slave States admitted into
this Union ; and who are the most sabtile, the
most untiring, and vindictive disunionists in the
whole country, because they strike at the great
principle of that compromise, out of which the
Union sprung, without which it would never have
been formed, atid cannot now exist for a single
hour."
The italics in the above quotation appear in the
copy before us, and are evidently intended to strike
the eye, and convey a particular emphasis.
Here is a beautiful reference to a protective tariff,
as well as to the enlargement of slavery
" She means to elect Polk, if she can, and obtain,
through its instrumentality, an essential change in
the PROMISED WHIG POLICY OF THE
GOVERNMENT—a redress of the evils of which
she complains, and a reversal of the unjust and un
constitutional mandate that no more slave States
are to be admitted into this Union, by a prompt,
plenary, and unrestricted annexation of Texas."
Here is a pretty strong hint at the motives which
actuated a portion of the South in moving for the
annexation. She desires the annexation of Texas
IO MAINTAIN TILE EQUILIBRIUM OF POWER BE
TWEEN TUE STATE. The protective tariff is to he
destroyed, and more slaves admitted; and, conse
quently, more slave repeesentation in Congress is
to be allowed !
But the General points to a sort of specific reme
dy for the South, in case Texas should not be ad
mitted. Perhaps the East may think of the propo
sition in ease Texas should be admitted:
If this fails, she will appeal to her confederates,
and, my life upon it, only recur, in the last resort, to
her sovereignty, under the sanction of the public
opinion of tissue whose interests ore identical with
her own, and under circumstances which so far from
dissolving the Union, will add fresh securities to its
preservation, by bringing the government back to
the good faith and authentic text of the Constitu
tion."
(C. The last Lewistown Gazette says The
locofoco Jubilee in this place on Saturday last,
turned out to be a miserable meagre affair. A few
file leaders and lank, hungry office expectants, with
here and there a sprinkling of boys composed the
procession. The otherwise dull and spiritless ap
pearance presented by the mclancholly cortege was
occasionlly enlivened by a genuine I'atlander pro

From 17ashington.
The Washington correspondent of the Philadel
phia United States Gazette, writes under date of the
25th ult., among other things, as follows:
" I hear some talk, but I do not know how much
of it may be depended on. For example—two
gentlemen who have the entre at the White House,
ancl of several of the Departmental offices, declare
that efforts have beets made to secure the prompt
action of Congress upon the Texas question, and
also upon the tariff, so that Mr. Polk may have a
clear coast when he comes into power; and, as Mr.
Tyler has all the odium he can well receive from
the Whigs, he will not care for any increase, while
the particular measure of Texas will seem to give
eclat to the close of his administration. This will
be taking the matter promptly; but, it was added,
that the question had been submitted to the people,
and they had decided in favor of annexation.
I ventured to state that I thought the vote of
New York, though constitutionally given to Mr.
Polk, could not be considered as favorable to Texas,
inasmuch as the Liberty vole was larger than Mr.
Polk's plurality.
_
. _
The reply was rather severe. I will not attempt
to give the exact words, but the meaning was this,
that the Liberty men knew what questions were at
issue, and they knew perfectly well that, by voting
against Mr. Clay, they were, in effect, voting for Mr.
Polk, who had openly avowed himself for immedi
ate annexation. It was added in a spirit of much
unkindness, and I hope a want of truth, that some
of these Liberty voters were glad of any question
to disturb the Union, and looked to an annexation
lo a means of division.
I ventured a word or two upon the tariff, and
they were down upon me with the majority in you:
own State.
The question of cabinet making is much discus

HENRY CLAY.
The Washington (Penn.,) Reporter, an-out-and
out Whig paper, hoists the name of Herne CLAY,
for 1848. The Editor says:
o We, therefore. propose to our Whig friends
throughout the Union, to /lALLT AT emelt, from this
moment, on Hitirriir CLAY! His erect spirit is still
unbroken and elastic; he is yet and will be for years

Honor to who?n Honor is Due.
Now that the Presidential contest is over and the
great battle hats ended disastrously for the friends, of
CONEITITIITIOhAL RiouT,land now that the SIM of
our country's glory has set in gloom and darkness,
it is not less our pleasure than our duty to bear tes
timony in behalf to those who were true to the faith
that was in them. Is it not enough to say that the
Whig party fought hard and fought nobly in the
cause of principle and truth—they did more than
this. They gave up every thing to their coun
try, and did all that men could do to rescue her
from the dangers that beset her—and which most
unfortunately for her peace and prosperity, and tire
happiness of the people, have at length overwhelm
ed her. They strained every nerve, and stretched
every tendon, in the fight; they toiled by day, and
watched by the camp fires by night; and all was
freely done for the honor and glory of the Republic,
and for the lone of him who has proved himself the
truest of her sons, and who stands up even in de
feat, " the noblest Roman of us all." l le, their great
leader, is beaten, but he is not on that account less
dear to his friends—they stood by him in his pros
perity, and they cling to him in his adversity.—
His defeat under any circumstances, and now espe
cially, when it has been effected by the foulest
frauds upon the elective franchise, and by votes
manufaCtured for the time and for the purpose, only
tightens his hold upon their affections, and makes
them press him more warmly and closely to their
yearning bosoms. He has been slandered and re
viled as mortal man never was before, but his char
' acter has not sulThred from the encounter; it still
survives the shock. In all that is ennobling in
patriotism, ell that is precious in intellect, or envia
ble in public virtue and private honor, Hmvar
CLAY towers as high above his enemies as does the
highest peak of the Andes above the level of the
sea. He has been cast into the fiery furnace of
personal invective and abuse, but, like the holy
youths spoken of in scripture, lie has come forth
unhurt by the flames, and unscortched and unscath
ed by the conflagration which has burned and bla
zed around trim. The vulgar and the reckless may
continue to spend their malice upon him, and the
demons of party may rejoice over his ill-fortune—
but, thank God, they can never subdue his proud
spirit, nor drag him down to their own deep abyss
of misery and degradation.
He has been borne down by the power of num
bers, it is true, but ho fell in glorious warfare, sword
in hand, and Iris armor on, at the head of freedom's
friends, the victim of freedom's foes, and with trim
fell the best hopes and dearest interests of his coun
try. He is overpowered, but Ire is still as firm and
unshaken as the rock on whose head the storms
have burst in all their madness, and against whose
sides the waves of the ocean, lashed into fury, have
dashed and fretted in vain.
The wiles and stratagems, and the frauds and
deceptions of his opponents, have balked those who
knew and estimated his worth in their efforts to re
ward him as they desired ; but still they cannot blot
out from history the record of his greatness, nor
prevent his name from going do%vn tcp posterity as
sociated,for thirty years past, with all that is mem
orable in the legislation or glorious in the annals of
his country. They are powerless as to that; for
his is one of the few names that was not born to
die. They have deprived him of office; but the
Presidential office, high and worthy as it is to man's
ambition, could not add a cubit to his stature nor
increase the splendor of his fame. His greatness
will still overshadow the land, and his character as
a statesman, bright as yet as the unconquerable
eagle of Iris country, will be appreciated wherever
liberty has a home or civilization a resting place,
and his virtuous deeds reverenced by unborn mill
ions to carne, when the
" Gilded flies
That, basking in the sunshine of a court,
Fatten on its corruption,"
are forgotten among the things that were.
And now, Whigs of the Union, your reversea,so
far from causing you to give way in despair, should
only point out to you the necessity of renewed and
redoubled action, and, at the proper time, it should
only strengthen your hearts arid nerve your arms
for another effort. You must not give up all hopes
of redeeming the country. Four years from now
rt can be done; and then you must not only wipe
out the stigma of your recent defeat, but avenge the
wrongs of HENRY CLAY. Remember that the
overwhelming defeat of the Roman forces in the
field of Cann° was followed soon after by the expul
sion of Hannibal, flushed with victory, from the
gates of the imperial city. Ay, remember too, that
West. xorox's retreat across the Delaware with a
few regiments of half clad and half starved soldiers,
one of the darkest hours in our Revolutionary strug
gle, was signalized soon after by the route of the
enemy's forces at Trenton in the midst of their re
velry and rejoicings. Take hope from these facts;
and when the days of your mourning shall have
passed and the period for action r.balt have arrived,
once more unfurl the Whig standard, and lay not
aside your arms until the infidels are driven from
the holy land. Till then rest in peace and bide
it your time.
Ty The Boston Courier (good authority) says
it is understood that Mr. Webster will take Mr.
Coate's place in the United States Senate. The
Willmington Gazette also says, the Hon. John M.
Clayton will be sent to the next Senate in the place
of Hon. R. H. Bayard. Some of the papers ex
press a hope that Mr. Clay and Mr. Van Buren
will both return to the Senate. We do not ima
gine that either of the two latter gentlemen would
desire or consent to serve in that capacity in pre
ference to retirement upon their respective planta
tions.

A locofoco manufacturer of shoes called on a
wholesale Whig dealer in that article in our city a
few days since, and, aver jeering him about the re
suit of the election and the defeat of Mr. Clay,
informed him that he I6d brought him,three hun•
dyed pair more of shoes. must decline taking
them, replied the dealer. I3ut why, inquired the
manufacturer, with Boma surprise; you have taken
all my shoes for years. Yes, replied the dealer,
but now we are going to have a reduction of the
Tariff, and I intend to import my shoes. So the
manufacturer departed ; called on all his locofoco
dealers through the city, but not one of them would
take his ahoes. He then came back again to his
old Whig customer, and offered them at a reduced
price, but he declined taking them. Such are the
fruits of electing a free trade man, under the pre
tence that he is a protectionist.—Phira Gazette.

The Important Case Decided.
B...wsErrows, 111. Nov. 14th.
Messrs. Guilford & Russell.—ln my last I in
formed you of the pending of a suit in this county
for the recovery, or to use the language of the plain
tiffs' lawyers, <, the recapture" of 60 negroes, manu
mitted in this State seventeen years ago. I have
now the pleasure to inform you that justice has tri
umphed, and the twenty eight inmates of the county
jail are set free. The arguments of the attorneys,
eight in number, occupied the court for twenty-four
hours. The decision was received by the concourse
attending the trial, with loud applause, for which
Judge beaten, sitting in the Circuit Court below,
ordered the doors closed, every one put on oath,
and those the most boisterous in stamping and '
shouting, fined $6 each. The disclosures made
upon this trial, of the long and secret preparations
made, of the promises, threats, and money spent,
when fully reported, will altogether exhibit ono of
the most bold and daring schemes to triumph over
law and justice, through professed legal means,
upon record.
The Abolition Vote.
The Journal of Commerce states that the Aboli
tion vote will be fully equal to Polk's majority
over Clay. It may be thus stated—partly in round
numbers:—
Pennsylvania, 3,138
Rhode Irland, 5
New Jersey, 131
New York, 15,859
Ohio, 8,050
New Hampshire, • 4,000
Vermont, 4,000

short of cash, publishes the following notice:—
"Those who owe us, will do us a favor by call.
hip...oftener, and those to whoin we may be indebted,
will save time and money by waiting till we call
on them."
That's certainly taking it coolly.

Tim E issinar. ox A GALS.—During the late gale
on Lake Erie, the Steamer Robert Fulton among
many other vessels, was wrecked.
On board that boat, as was related by a passen
ger and published in the Religious Herald, was an
Infidel, with a box of books to distribute at the
West. He was loud and clamorous in proclaim
ing his infidelity, till the gale came on—but then,
like the rest, he was silent, and watched with
trembling anxiety the uncertain fate of the ship.—
At length they drew near the shore, and attempted
to throw out their anchors, when the whole for
ward part of the boat broke ofT, and the waves
rushed into the cabin. At once the infidel was on
his knees crying for mercy—his voice could he
heard above the raging elements, begging the Lord
to forgive his blasphemies, till a heavy sea swept
over the deck, and carried him and his books to the
bottom.
Intolerance Recommended.
The New York Advocate, a violent locofoco pa
per recommends the following course to the Loco
-
foci,. in their private. dealings :
" We say to all decent men and good democrats,
do not trust a Wu ro with a single dollar for a sin
gle day ; call in all the money due you from
WHIGS IMI.II,IATELIC. Look after all stakehol
ders and hunt up the odd change that is owing you
without delay."
If a Whig paper bad recommended such a course
against the Locofocos, there would have been a
terrible caterwauling from the later-day democracy.
