THE.GREAT LOCO FOCO CON SPIRACY. TO OUR FELLOW-CITIZENS OF THE UNION. In Joint Executive Committee of the Whig Gentrol Committee of the city of NCID York. Naw Your, October 24, 1840. For some tinie past, the great Whig par -ay has been threatened, through the Loco Foco papers in various pineal the country, that some:matter was on foot for their de. 'inaction, which wit denominated by the Adminiqtration papers Mr. Van Buren's Last Card." The public attention ►n all parts:of the country was called to the sub• kid advance, by dark insinuations and mysterious threats. All this time the Loco Face party was maturing its pions and keep. ing its councils. It was determined among them that their machine should explode so shortly before the election that its intamous contents :night be scattered through the Urtion without leaving time to the Whig party to make , its defence, or even to tell its own story. While both parties stood in a state of suspense and awaiting the expected shock, all at once on yesterday the 23d day of Oc tober, the mine was sprang, by the publica tion in the Loco Foco papers of the city, of a portion of certain proceedings then being had before the Recorder and District Attor ney of this city, sitting in secret session, viz: the affidavit •of one Stevenson, based upon !Marley. that certain individuals among the most respectable and valuable of our citizens, had, in the'year. 1839, entered into t►trangemeuts for importing voters into the city of New York, for the then pending election, from the city of Philadelphia.— None of the affidavits disproving the accu sation were published except in one or two instanees, but means had been taken to give the utmost circulation to the charges, which were scattered through the country in im mense numbers immediately on the same coming from the press. In anticipation of these publications. letters were sent, and private reports set in circulation, that the -Governor of the State was actually in ens 'tody in the matter; that Aaron Clark (our late Whig Mayor) had also been arrested, and that Moses H. Grinnell, one of our pre sent Representatives in Congress, had ab. 'mended. Simultaneously with the publi cation of the proceedings in our papers, placards had been posted in Boston, and, at is presumed, in other distant places, stating these reports to be true, on the authority of letters from thiticity, with the intention of deceiving the public by false and mall cious statements. Tho whole, fellow-citizens, is a base and notorious conspiracy—a wretched and bare. faced attempt to impose upon the commu• pity—a gross and outrageous attempt to CHEAT TEE PEOPLE. Our duty is to meet the matter promptly; and we meet it the first moment we have the opportunity, by the publication of the facts. We now explicitly declare, that not only are all the statements with regard to the arrest of Governor Seward and Mr. Clark, and the absconding of Messrs. Grin cell and Wetmore, totally and entirely with out foundation, but that they are pursuing their usual avocations among their fellow citizens, without molestatiori. You will also perceive that no evidence has been ad. duced, bringing home to the Whig party of city, or any of its leaders, any participation in the alleged fraud although the examina tion has been ex parte, and conducted in an unprecedented manner. • ,In conclusion, we beg leave to state; that as a large portion of the members of this Committee were connected with the Exec utive Committee during The Election of No vember, 1839, we do most explicitly and solemnly declare, that, so far as the knowl edge of this Committee extends, no such transactions as are alleged ever occurred; and we pronounce the whole scheme intend. ed to injure the characters of individuals, and to destroy the prospects of the Whig party throughout the country, as a base and , unfounded Plectionei-ring, falsehood.

THE LOCO FOCO NATURALIZATION FRAUD EXPOSED. Art VPIZIGIUT ihrlslON.—The matter in relation to the Naturalization frauds, which ''bas agitated the public for some days, has at length been brought to a close. The frauds have never been denied, but on the contrary, here been admitted time and again. It will be seen by the decision which we r:ive below, that the Judgea of the Court of Quarter Seasions have ordered these false declarations, and the names of the individuals who obtained Certificates on such declaration% to be stricken, from • the records. Thus, in this matterotleast, justice has been done, although the cfloct of the fraudulent votes given at the hist election remains to be nullified. It will thus be seen by our fellow:citizens in Phil adelphia and elsewhere, that the frauds which The Wing papers altved took place prior to the btst election, and through which *tarp body of Loco Fccn votes wore ilk gaily p u lled, have been fully subs'antiated by our Courts of Justice. There is no :n:8 take in this matter. Unlike the pr3tended frauds of New York, thie•case is clear and beyond dispute. We give the decision of the Judges, and , need only add that this de cision applied to every individual of the long list, who obtained false papers on ille gal and forged Certificates of Declaration.

This settles the question in regard to Maine. , CONSUMPTION.-Dr. Latour, of Paris, has published the following rules for pre venting consumption in those persons who are predisposed to it: "A consumptive patient should inhabit a dry, airy locality, well exposed to the influ ence of the solar rays. Residence in any large city predisposes to consumption. A temperate climate should be chosen, -where the variations of the temperature are neither sodden nor frequent. Travelling, and pat• ticularly sea voyages, is attended with di cided advantage in the early stage of cot sumption. The patient should be warmly clothed, and covered with flinnel from head to foot. He should take habitually some moderate exercise, as walking, riding, &c.; exposure to the open air and sun's rays are ahsolutely necessary. He should exercise the mind in a moderate degree, but avoid all strong moral emotions. He must re nounce any .profess;on which requires strong muscular exertion, a bent position of the body, a• residence in a damp moist place, &c. and, finally, the food should be rich and nourishing."

Johnson & Cu. and the opposition line own ed by Messrs. McNair & Weaver, came in contact on the turnpike road near Shelby ville, by which the mail line was upset and several passengers had their limbs fractured. Amongst the permons injured was Mr. Isaac Laughlin, the driver of the mail line who had the misfortune to have one foot and an- Ida crushed to pieces, by which he has been made a cripple for life. He sued McNair & Weaver, the proprietors of the opposi tion, for the injury, alleging the wanted conduct of their driver as the cause. The case was tried some time since in the Shel by Circuit Court, and a verdict was given in favor of Laughlin for $1,900. A new trial was grunted upon application of the delenduutto; the case was removed to the Henry Circuit Court,and there tried the last week, when a verdict of $2,000 was given. ......,/, • •••••- There is a place, we believe in New Hampshire, where they never have any old maids.

By the Daguerreo• type, an extensive landscape or the features of a man's face can be represented on a ma tunic plate in less than two minutes, with an exactness never attained by the drawing pencil or the engraver's toil; and by a new invention any number ofclepies can be taken with equal facility. By voltaic action copperplates can be multiplied, or taken from wood cuts without the blurring of line, at the cost of a few shillings. And now type can be set, distributed. arid re-act by the same machine, in a brief space of time and without the human band being brought into contact with them. Truly,this may be'called the age of invention.

Or, what would be .a still greater relief, cannot the trouble thinking be super seded? We are sure that an invention which should ellect this, would be highly agreeable to some readers, who are not fond of long articles. But looking more seriously on these inventions, and those of which we have I elsewhere given account, that facilitate communication over land and water, do we not appear to have reached the time when men begin to "run to and fro and knowledge to be increased.

Advocate. 45,347 45,110 From the New Haven Register Honnzo.—The town of Wallingford, was on Tuesday morning thrown into great ex citement by the commission of murder and suicide. A young woman by the name of June H. Allen, had been keeping house fur Mr. Milo Hopkins, of that town, for more than a year past, and was being assisted by Mr. Hopkins in procuring a bill of divorce from her husband, with whom she lived but a short time after Marriage. On ,Monday last, they both came to this city, procured the bill of divorce, and returned to the house of Mr. Hopkins, where it was supposed they would soon be married. The next morning, (Tuesday) Mr. Hopkins rose ear ly, and taking en axe, proceeded to the room in which the young woman and her mother were sleeping and literally cut her in pieces without offering any violence to the mother. He then retired immediately to his own room and killed himself, by cutting his throat with a razor. No motive can be as signed for this astounding conduct of Mr. H., as it was supposed his attachment for the young lady was very strong. We un• derstand he had exhibited no signs of do. rangement, and was comfortably situated as regards a fair proportion of the world's goods, and was considered a decent citizen. The New Haven Herald gives • some ad. dittonal particulars in the following state. went. • On returning from court on Monday evening, Hopkins wished her to marry him, but her mother coming on a visit to hor and wishing to confer with her, she declined.— The mother and daughter slept together, and Hopkins in another room. In the mor ning Hopkins called on Mrs Allen to get up, which she did not do, and he called a second time. His cull not being attended to he became enfuriated, and having procu red an axe he went into the room and struck the woman while in bed: with the head of the axe, each blow proved fatal, but with savage ferocity he turned the edge of his axe and literally chopped his victim limb from limb. The desperate man then re turned to his own room; and with a knife severed the jugular vein, and in a short time bled to death. The mother escaped unhurt and gave the alarm. We undersland,that all the parties enga• ged in this rag.-dy are of the lowest order of society and very intemperate. The im• mediate agent in this awful catastrophe was RUM, Hopkins:having purchased two quarts on Monday, most of which he had con sumed. The Journal of Commerce of the 13th inst. contained a paragraph, copied from the Montreal Herald, respecting the mar• riage in England, of a gentleman. aged 77 years, to a lady who had not yet seen six teen summers—time expended in the court ship, four duys.

I===l TIIE DIRTY TRICKS OF THE PRESIDENT.. an Buren has been in New Yolk mcog, during the sitting of the secret inqukition. which concocted the infernal plot that was to annihilate General Harrison. Since the failure of the vile scheme the tnries have. become ashamed of the President's inra. m.ms conduct, end are attempting to deny that he was in New York or had any ham!, in the nefarious proceedings. What is u m . c"untry coming to when the president of the. United States stops to such contemptible. trickery and his high and confidential advi- sers, offer "half their fortunes" and impor, tent appointments to individuals, to induce. them to purjure thems.dves by implicating distinguished indivictitals in one of their in, famous conspiracies!! No wonder they aro. iediatned of their conduct..—Har. Citron.

HORRIBLE OUTRAGE AT THE POLLS.— An Editor nearly Murdered by Gorern meat Bullies while Exercising the Right of -Suffrage. . - - We learn from a passenger who came in tho cars from Lancaster last evening, that Cameron's infilmous blood-hounds, attacked R. W. Middleton, Esq. the independent editor of the Lancaster Examiner, while at 1 he Pulls, knocked him down, jumped upon him and cut his face in the most horrible manner, the flesh was cut nearly off both sides of hislace, and left his cheek and jaw bones dearly bare! Three physicians were in attendance, and fears were entertained for his safety. STOPPING THE MAlLS.—Thurvday morn ing the mails from Philadelphia westward, were stopped at the Collector's office, at the corner of Broad and Callowhill streets, un der the following circumstances. Mr. Silas Moore, who has the contract from the U. States for carrying the mail on this route, contracted with the Canal Commissioners to carry it on the State works for one hun dred and fifty dollars per mile, which has been done until yesterday morning, when it was stopped as before mentioned. The Canal Commissioners for some reasoe, have directed the State Collector, Mr. A. B. Cummings, to demand the payment for the transportation of the mails in specie, which Mr. Moore not finding convenient, or not being willing to be subjected to, refused and payment was not made until the sum amoun ted to over seven thousand dollars. 011 the 2d day of August, Mr. Jacob Duck, general agent for the western lines, commenced making weekly payments of the tolls in specie, for Mr. Moore, which he continued to do until yesterday morning. About the ninth day of August, Mr. Duck received a line from the State Collector that unless the whole arrears of tolls were paid in specie by the twenty-eighth day of October, the mails on tha day would be stopped. Mr. Duck communicated this to Mr. Moore, who had previously tendered thp amount due, in the common currency of the country, which was refused by the collector. Yesterday morning th• mails were put into the ear as usual, and sent to the collectors office, when the car was stopped and not permitted to proceed until the mails were taken out, which was done by Mr. Duck, and sent back to the Post Office, where they remain ed until 12 o'clock last night. Mr. Moore having anticipated this. had provided a line of coaches and horses for carrying the mail over the turnpike, which will be continued until some further arrangement is made.-- .

The 4fOgo consisted of two hundred and feurteen Gales of cotton and a quantity alive-oak. ,-The loss of the boat is ascribed to her unseaworthy condi tion. The captain is exonerated from all censure or blame whatever for the accident. All the cotton was saved. THE NORTH EASTERN. BOUNDARY.--A Correspondent of the Boston Mercantile Journal, writing from Bangor on Wednes day last, says: •ITwo of the young men who accompa- nied the Boundary Commissioners, have arrived in this city. I am informed that the whole ground has been carefully exam . ivied, and that the Commigsioners are on their return. Their report will probably come to us by the way of Washington; and until we get it, we must put up with such information as may casually fall from those connected with the expedition. . I am informed that there is not a doubt upon the minds of the Commissioners, that the line claimed by the Americans is the true line; and that no person who makes the examination with the intention of ascer taining the truth, can arrive at any other conclusion. This, I have no doubt, is cor. rect and all we want to bring this imitating question to a close; is energetic "and deter. mined action on the part of the government. --•..«.-- LOOK OUT FOR FIRES AT WASHINGTON. —A friend writing us from Cincinati, closes hie letter as follows: "All doubts of the election of Gen.

May we not look fora greatfre or fires at Washington soon?— !'he Treasury and Post °fee have been moat conveniently burnt lone under this Dynasty—is it not reasonable to anticipate similar scenes "about thew days?"
