GIVE THEM A CALL.—Those who want
a good saddle, fine sett of harness, or
anything in their line•of business, at a
fair price, would do well to give J. .1. &
A. H. BCDIBAUGH a call. They are enter
prising and good mechanics, and deserve
encouragement. See advertisement in
another column.
THE DIAREETS,
Since the arrival of the late foreign
news, a considerable decline has taken
place in Breadstuffs. The Philadelphia
Ledger of Saturday says : "In New
York, on the receipt of the news, flour
fell one dollar and a quarter per barrel,
wheat fifty cents, corn twenty-five cents.
In this city flour has fallen one dollar
below the price it was two days ago.—
The crops abroad are ir. a fine condition,
and those of our own country promises
abundance. This fovorable condition
of things cannot but have an effect upon
prices. Turn about, however, is fair
play. Fortunes have been made by the
dealers in bresdstuffs by the great rise;
a reduction of the price will greatly re
lieve a large class of the community
who have been paying enormously for
their bread."
Flour was offered in Philadelphia on
Friday last, nt $7,50, with limited sales.
Red Wheat offered at $1,70 a 1,75.
Sales of Corn at $1,03 a $1,05 ; Oats
57 a 58 cts.
Encourage your own Mechanics,
We conceive it to be the duty of the
citizens of every town, to encourage
their own Mechquics; and we heartily
concur in the observations of a contem-
porary, that the disposition cannot be
too much rebuked, let it exist in any
town it may, to send to distant places
for products, which could be equally
well furnished by the Mechanics in their
own town. This will apply to nations
as well as towns. No one thing can be
more positively injurious to the real in•
terest of a town than to go over the
heads of its Mechanics, and buy else-
where. It takes out of the place money,
which justly belongs at home. It dis
courages, and drives away honest and
enterprising mechanics. It prevents
them from advancing in prosperity, so
as to add to the success of their own
town. Wherever you see poor mechan
ics you will be very sure to see a poor
town. The prosperity of both are iden
tified.
We regret to believe that there are
people, who think that no article can be
good for anything, unless it be nn im
ported one. Such persons are enemies
to the town in which they live. They
do what they can to retard its progress,
and discourage its citizens. Every real
friend to the place in which he lives
should do all he can to encourage its
Mechanics, and he who has a correct
conception of the duties of a neighbor
and a true American citizen, will ever
take pleasure in doing so, and not run
after every thing that is foreign, from
the foolish idea that by doing so it ren
ders him a man of the ton, by such an act
of jleep injustice to his own felloW citi-

sage in relation to this matter's II so,
will you have the kindness to publish
what he said on the subject. By doing
so, you will oblige A SesscalsEs.
We cheerfully comply with the above
request of a much respected " subscri
ber." Mr. Polk did allow the General
who is now at the head of the Mexican
Army, to return to his country, and we
refer all who doubt it to his last annual
message, where they will find the fol
lowing candid admission over the signa
ture of Jas. K. Polk himself:
"Santa Anna had been expelled from power by
the army, was known to be in open hostility to Pa
redes, and publicly pledged against foreign interven
tion and the restoration of monarchy in Mexico.—
In view of these facts and circumstances it was,
that, when orders were issued to the commander of
our naval forces in'the Gulf, on the 15th day of
May last, only two days after the existence of the
war had been recognized by Congress, to place the
Gull of Mexico under blockade—he was directed
not to obstruct the passage of SANTA ANNA to
Mexico should he attempt to return.
"Great Olen will Differ," is the
most truthful observation we have seen
in the Globe this season. As another
evidence, the Globe editor says that the
prices of Breadstuffs have been raised
by the Tariff of 1846 g the editor of the
Hollidaysburg Standard says the Agents
of the Lewistown Bank have caused
these high prices!
Hut, "the Farmers are not benelitted by the
high prices," "none but a few Speculators ore ben
efitted by this State of things," eayo the Editor of
SANTA ANNA EXPOSING MR. POLKAS
131.0NnEx!--The Mobile Advertiser trans
lates a letter from the principal Mexican
paper, which Santa Anna has written to
the capital, in which, alluding to the
proclamation of Gen. Scott, he says:
" But in the midst of the malevolence
(encono) which General Scott shows he
has against me, he does me too much
honor when he says that they had been
deceived as to my real intentions and that
on account of this mistake his Government
had permitted me to pass to my country.—
Indeed, most Excellent Sir, the United
States did deceive themselves when they
dreamed that I was capable of betraying
my country. Before this should happen
I would prefer to be consumed by fire
and my ashes should be scattered that
not a single ntom be left.
THE GLOBE AND THE FARRIERS.--The
Globe of last week tells the Farmers
that we are their enemy, and that its
editor is their most devoted friend. To
make the assertion available in injuring
us, or the party to which we are attach
ed, the Globe man has still a Herculean
task to perform, viz : to get Me Farmers
to believe him And whether or not, in
the language of a cotemporart-, the far
mers can be made to believe that the
tariff of '46 did raise the price of flour
to its present height, and the mechanics
and laboring men be persuaded that it
did not, remains to be seen. We are in
clined to believe that at the next elec
tion the locofoco party will find them
selves in the predicament of the man
who attempted to sit on two stools.

ANECDOTE OF GEN. SCOTT.—One of the
volunteers wilo was at the reduction of
Vera Cruz, reports that during the bom
bardment, Gen. Scott, riding along the
American line, and seeing some of their
soldiers raising their heads above em
bankment, to get a view of the work of
destruction in the city, called out famil
iarly—" Better take care, there! Some
of you will get your heads knocked off
before you know it!"—" Hadn't you bet
ter take care of your own head, Generals"
asked one of them. "Ay, they make
Generals so easy, now, it isn't much
odds if one of them should get killed,"
replied the General.
ANECDOTE OF MR. WEBSTER.—In his
speech at Savannah, on the occasion of
the dinner given him by the citizens of
that place, Mr. Webster, adverting par-
ticularly to the object of his visit, 1. e,
to see Southern culture and Southern
people, said: "I have frequently been
asked during my tour, by Southern gen
tlemen, whether I could go with them
to look at this rice field, or that cotton
field. The question reminded me of an
anecdote told by my friend Skinner, of
the Farmer's Library, of a man to be
married, who, when asked by the parson
if he " wanted to have this woman for
his wedded wife," replied, "To be sure
I will ; I came on purpose."
New Locofoco Candidate!
Since Mr. Polk has joined the " ono
term " party, and Col. Benton declines a
nomination, the party has been casting
about for a suitable candidate to run
against old "Rough and Ready." We
were Teally afraid they would be unable
to find one, and are pleased that our
fears are not likely to be realized, as we
find the following announcement in the
Doylestown Democrat, one of the most
ably and gentlemanly conducted tory
sheets in the State—
POE PRESIDENT,
GEN. SANTA ANNA, of Cerro Gordo,
The same paper has also the name of
Francis R. Shunk at its masthead for
Governor ! We can only promise them
a second edition of the Buena Vista and
Cerro Gordo victories, revised and cor•
rected by the forces under General
TAYLOR and Invix.—Lancaster Unron.
REMAINS OF LIEUT. COLONEL CLAY, AND
OTHERS.—We find in the New Orleans
Bee, that on the sth of June, the schoon
er General Patterson had arrived at that
port from the Brazos, bringing the hon
ored remains of Lieut. Col. Clay, Col.
McKee, Captains Willis and Lincoln,
Lieut. Powell, Adjutant Vaughan, and
private H. Walter, of the Second Reg
iment Kentucky Volunteers. These are
a few from among the dead of the bloody
battle field of Buena Vista.
THE DELAWARE LICENSE LAW.-
We learn from the Wilmington Gazette,
that the no•license law was decided on
Friday last, by the Court of Errors and
Appeals, composed of the Chancellor and
all the Judges in the State sitting at
Dover, to be unconstitutional and conse
quently void. The five Judges were
unanimous in their opinion. We gather
from the same source, that the recent
election held upon the subject in New
Castle county, has also been declared
void.
MAJOR HAMMOND, better known to our
citizens as Gen. Hammond, of Milton,
in this State, who recently obtained an
appointment as Pay-master in the army,
died on his passage from Vera Cruz to
New Orleans. Gen. IL has a large fam
ily connection and many ardent friends
to deplore his death. He was an esti
mable gentleman, and has represented
his district in Congress. A son of his,
attached to the United States Dragoons
was killed a few months since in one of
the engagements at California.
