    The "Globe"
Labors through a whole column last week to
prove that it'e did stigmatize the "citizens of
WoodCoek Valley" as “rowdies." The allega
tion is so absurd and ridiculous, that we do not
of did not from the time it was first made in that I
Paper, consider it of much importance. We
only allude to it now, (as the Globe seems some
what troubled on that score) for the purpose of
endorsing all our correspondent said in relation
to those who attempted to disturb the Taylor
meeting at McConnellstown. And to say fur
ther, that we have no objection to the Globe
publishing the entire communication of "X" and
crediting it to this paper. The attempt made by
the Globe to make the citizens of "Woodcock
Valley," or even all that portion of them who
prefer Cass to Taylor, responsible for the con
duct of a few men who had lent themselves on
the occasion referred to, to the Cass leaders
Isere, will we imagine be considered by those
honest and upright citizens, as an insult, rather
than a compliment. It is well known to all par
ties, that on the evening of the Taylor meeting
at McConnellstown, two or three Cass men at
tended, and previous to the organization boasted
that they would not allow the Taylor orators to
speak. And after the meeting was organized,
done all in their power to disturb the proceed
ings. For this ungentlemanly, anti-American
conduct, our correspondent very justly char
acterized them as "rowdies" and , !dastards."
But for this conduct, which we venture to as
sert was condemned by a large majority of the
Cass men of Woodcock Valley, and by right
minded people every where, these men are com
mended by the Globe, and their infamous con
duct applauded as "most gentlemanly!" When,
however, a Taylor man who was under the in
fluence of liquor, became a little noisey, and
slightly disturbed the Cass meeting held at Mill
Creek, five or six Cass men fell upon him and
beat and abused him in a most shameful manner;
and the honest and fair deeding editor of the
Globe silently approves the act ! We have no
mote to say on this subject at present.
A WORD TO WHIGS--FRIENDS
OF TAYLOR AWAKE !
Whigs of Pennsylvania, now is the time for
action, everywhere—in every corner of the
Commonwealth. Let there be no delay. In
two short months you will be called upon to de
cide the contest in this State, when as yet you
hive scarcely begun to form your column for the
duty. A fatal apathy pervades your ranks in
many parts of the State, which should and must
be: shaken off, or locofocoism will be allowed to
triumph over yon, although victory is within
your reach, Every .mane should feel and do bis
duty. Victory cannot be secured without labor,
Work, work, with a right good will, is the
Watchword—only that will secure
.a triumph,
61,,,y it, and a result as gratifying as it will be
glorious and beneficial to the Slide will crown
your labors.
To the friends of Old Rough and Ready, we
also say, it is high time for action. No man
cant.. elected President against a regularly or
g.inized and well drilled party opposition, with
out his friends work, no matter what personal
popidarity he may possess. If he be elected it
ititist be through the efforts of his friends.
They must be ardent, zealous and active in his
canoe, or they cannot expect a gratifying result.
success depends upon effort alone—and the grea
tot the effort the more certain the triumph.
.Work, work, is the key to it, and trill insure it.
Let them therefore, one and all, put on their ne'
mor, and cease not doing their duty until the el
ection is passed. If this be done, success, trium
phant, glorious, unprecedented success Will crown
your efforts, gladden your hearts, and send a
thrill of joy through the hearts of millions of
freemen. trp and to your duty then, friends of
Old Zack, and let the certainty of victory cheer
you on in your didy.,,Pa. Te/egraph.
Gen. Butler's Respect for the Sab-
bath.
The Penn's Telegraph says:--We have al
ready published an extract from a letter to one
of the New Orleans papers, showing Gen. But
ler's presence at and countenance of a Horse
Race, on the SABBATH, when in the city of
Mexico. He was on the; stand, with the judge
of the race. It would appear that Mr. Butler's
disrespect for the Lord's Day is not an acciden
tal but an habitual thing with him. The Wash
ington (Pa.) Commonwealth, speaking of Gen.
Butler's journey to Washington, from New
Orleans, says
We understand that the democratic candi
date for Vice President started from Wheeling
on Saturday evening, and must have passed fifty
places of public worship during the Sabbath.—
Will pious democrats vote for the General after
this ?"
Black Cockade Consistency,
The Black Cockade Cuss organs says the Pa.
Telegraph, are holding up Gen. Taylor as an
odious sluveholder ; they magnify the number of
slaves on his plantation into hundreds, and even
go so far as to represent him as a purchaser and
seller of slaves. This is done, we presume, to
influence the friends of Mr. Clay ! to vote
against General Taylor on the Slavery issue.
These advocates of the Michi-gander were very
careful in 1811 not to let their readers know that
Mr. Polk was the largest sluveholder in Tennes
see, and a regular breeder of Slaves for market !
and that Gen. Butler, the Locofoco candidate
for Vice President, is one of the largest slave
owners in Kentucky 1 The holy horror of the
black cockadeists at General Taylor's owning
slaves, as Gen. Washington did, seems to be
manufactured only for the benefit of the fat man
of Michigan. Out upon such hypocrites !
Buffalo Convention.
The Free Soil Convention which assembled
at Buffalo on the 9th most., nominated MARTIN
VAN BUREN for President and CHARLES
F. ADAMS of Massachusetts, for Vice Presi
dent. The Convention is said to have been very
large—some forty or fifty thousand People be
ing present.
Will Cass still continue to be a candidate 1 or
will he, for the sake of the harmony of the Lo
cofoco party decline.

Rev. Jour McEr.ftov, former Catholic
chaplain to Gen. Taylor's army in Mexico, and
who says he has never voted in his life, has been
drawn into a substantiation of the opinion ex.
pressed by himself to Thurlow Weed, of the
Albany Journal, that he considers Gen. Taylor
"truly a great and good man, &e., being in
character "a strong and marked resemblance to
Washington." He regrets, however, to see his
name in print, in connexion with the Presiden

Taylor. In Columbia, the home of Mr.
Polk an immense gathering ratified the
nominations—the largest and most ani

the hills and hollows of old Maury.
The truth is, out opponents in Tennes

most of them before November."

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 6.
The steamship Alabama arrived here yester
day from Vera Cruz, with dates from that city
to the Ist inst., and from the capital to the 29th
ult.
Nothing further was known in relation to the
present condition of Paredes or his future move
ments.
The city of Vera Crnz was surrendered to the
Mexican authorities on the Ist. Every thing
passed off quietly.
Gen. Persifer P. Smith arrived here on board
the Alabama. He has been made the guest of
the city, and will lie publicly received to.mor.
row, by a grand demonstration of welcome.
The health of our city is good, though a few
cases of yellow fever have occurred, which have,
however, been brought here by vessels from
Vera Cruz. The weather is very hot.

severe constipation of the bowels, and violent
