What infatwation! Can we be. so led captive to pry strife, as to be enurely unmindful of the past? r. Greeley is very unhappy in his allusions. Pru- dence would teach him to say nothing of the ‘* dis- pelring widow!” It awakens burning recollections t fills the mind with terrific images! Aesociated with that idea, is the pale, bleeding prostrate form of the dying Cilley?. Go, Mr. Greeley, before you repeat this passage, and wash the crimson from the hands of your candidate! The blood of ‘‘ her mar- tyred husband” is yet upon them. Restore to the “despairing widow” ‘her martyred husband,” the murdered Cilley. Let the tears of these deso- late orphans be “dried.” “And tell your gory ora tor to “‘ gladden” the lone abode of that ** despair ing widow,” with “ the sunlight of glory and tree- dom,” before you place another encomium upon the character of Henry Clay. Taxe Warning —We learn from the Chicago Journal that a number of silly locos at a meeting recently in Menard Co., Ill. thought it would be a good joke to ram their cannon with Clay.

Mr. Clay warmly advocated the passage of this Jaw, coming downfrom the Speaker’s chair to make « sposchy in itsfavor. It is to be observed that his wages as Speaker was then twelve dollars per day. A eketch of his remarks was published in the Lexiog- ton Reporter of May 2lst, 1816, a paper which has always been warmly devoted to his interests, from which we extract the tollowing notable sentence : “ Mr. C. (Clay) said, his own personal experience determined him in voting for the bill. He had attended Congress, sometimes without his family and at other times with a part of it, and although his ecmpensention, whilst he had enjoyed the honor of presiding in this House, was double that of other Members, he declared, with the utmost sincerity, that he had never been able to make both ends meet at the termination of Congress. Think of that,ye hard-fisted farmers and me- chanics! This isthe farmer of Ashland, the mill- bey of the Slashes! Couldn’t make both ends meet at Twelve Dollarsa Day! Just, think what kind of a tarm it would take to keep him going with champaigne and cologne water in the day time, and high low Jack, at night! It was just about the time he made this speech that Mr. Clay discovered the constitutionality and great necessity of National Bank —Harrisburg (Pa.) Union. Pork IN aNorHER Licut.—We yesterday pub- lished a letter from Gov. Polk to Mr. rane of Phi- ladelphia, which wus evidently designed to convey the idea, to the triends of domestic manufactures, that he was in favor of a protective tariff. No per- son could mistake the import of that letter, or be in doubt as to the object for which it was written. It was palpably the design of Mr. P. also to induce the people to believe, that in all bis Congessional career, he was (ab eg by a desire to secure, by the laws of the land, “fair and just protection to all the great interests of the whole Union, em- bracing agriculture, manufactures, the mechanic arts, commerce and navigation.” Upon the strength of this letter, further, it 18 claimed by Mr. Polk’s friends in Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, that “‘he is as much the friend of the American manufacturer us Mr. Clay is.” With these facts before them, we ask our read- ers to peruse the following paragraph, which was the introduction to a letter which Mr. Polk ad- dressed to the people of Tennessee, during the last canvass for the gubernatcrial chair of that State. Wincnssten, May 29, 1343, To the People of Ten: newnee : The object which f hadin at Carroliville, on the 12th of , that we should each write out and publish our views and opinions on the subject of the Tariff, was, that our respective positions might be distinctly known and understood by the people. That my opinions were already fully and distinctly known, I could net dombt. I had steadily during the period iwose representative in Congress been opposed to & proteciive policy, s my recorded votes and published speeches prove. Since I retired from Congress fied held the same opinions. In the present canvass for Governor (had avowed my opposition to the tariff act of the late Whig Congress, os being bap on by sae in ite char. acter, ard not designed by its authors as @ revenue mea- public speeches ture. Thad avowed my opinion in my country, BOY jially of & repeal, slog to Governor Jones, producing and exporting 8 ined roduc x tates, require the restoration ‘ofthe principles of the compromise tarift act of | Now what ought every honest man to think of James K. Polk? Is an individual, who can be guilty ef such protean conduct, worthy the confi- dence of the country? Ought he not rather to be scorned and contemned by every voter worthy of being called a man? And will he not be treated by every freeman just as his hypocrisy and tergiver- sation calls for? Such a creature indeed, un worthy of being called to fill the meanest post under the government, much less to be elevated to an office once filled by a Washington and a Madi- son. But, thank Heaven, the country has not fallen to so low a point in the scale of honor and wisdom, as to leave any certain prospect of success to such & time-serving politician and apology for a states- man —Augusta ¢ hronicle. Goov 1r fRrug.—An honest old farmer remarked to us the other day, that however successini Mr Freli sen may have been in Christianizing the heathen, hegdid not think he would ever be able 8 Christianize Henry Clay.— Newark Morw Of the whig candidate for the office of Vice.’ President there appears to be a lack of charges of viee, immorality, &c. against him. Perhaps this may arise from that office not requiring such quali- fications. The following choice morceau from the Kentucky Yeoman will evince the spirit which this gentleman’s nomination is accounted for, and give a sample of the attacks made. atid “The whigs have made a master stroke of polic in running Frelinghuysen on the ticket witt Mr. Cla most comprehensive ticket ; it embraces the two gi divisions of the human family; it makes sure of both Christian and heathen, both saint and sinner It 18 expected, of course, that all the ungodly and reprobute, the sportsmen, the duellists, the speculators, the dan- dies and the loafers will be for Clay, and_all the eleet, the sanctified, the bigots, and fanatics, the philanthropists, the puritans, the sectarians, aud all ical will be for Frelingbuysen, and will a. the evangelica! ; i swallow Clay alongwith him. Ah! what a mil- lenial spectacle will be presented at ihe next elec- tion saint and sinner, swindler and elder, duellist and quaker will go arm and arm to the ballot box ; the lion and Jamb will lie down together; literally bee, will be “union of the puritan and the blayk- eg.” Mr. McDuffie’s Opinion of Mr. Clay.—I assen,, (says Mr, McDuffie of South Carolina,) and am wig stake my humble steck of reputation y e truth of the assertion, that the circum- stagges of the extraordinary coalition between Ads and Clay furnish as strong evidence of an ababdonment o} Np ge principle on the part of Mr. Clay, and of a corrupt political bargain be- tween him and Mr. Adams, as is ordinarily r quired to establish the guilt of those who are char- ged in a court of quartersessions with the common crimes known to the law.—Boonsville Examiner. Frpenat Gammon. “In accepting [the nomination of Vice President on the federal ticket] | can only promise the best efforts, in some humble measure to justify the high confidence reposed in me. pa aD nd in 2) ' ness 7! eomtipeant the open 80 to le m 8, that | may not e expec- tatlons of my friends, or do horm to the interests of our country.’ Here is the closing part of Mr. Frelinghuysen’s letter toa Mr. Ellsworth, accepting the federal no- mination at Baltimore for the Vice Presidency and in regard to it I can only say it is a fair speci- men of federal whiggery; for that party’s maxim always was to ‘count their chickens before they are ne oe But this is no novelty—ict has always been the practice of the federalista—all their crow- i done before election, and their crying after. What’ high confidence,” j should like to enquire, is ‘‘reposed” by nominating a man who cannot possibly be elected? It is merely using him fora tool, to aid the chances of another, who never yet could stand upon his own avuila- bility. “If this is the only *‘ confidence” Mr, Fre- linghuysen obtains, he ought to be pitied. His language, however, is quite irreverent, if not highly reprehensible. I allude to his invoking ‘the goodness of Divine Providence,” that he may not ‘disappoint the expectations of his friends!” What, for Heaven’s sake, has ‘Divine Provi- dence” ‘to do with the ‘‘expectations” of the federalists? Does Providence smile on their profanity and debauchery% Does it en- courage frauds, deceptions and humbuggery? Does it, or can it, or will 1t uphold the vile scenes of 18402. O no! forbid it decency! forbid it morali- y. So far from it, Providence—and Vox Fopuli ‘ex Dei—will frown forbiddingly on all such de- vout appeals for political purposes. They cannot be regarded as honest or sincere. Asto “harm to the interests of the country,” Mr. Frelinghuy- sen need not deprecate it, as he will be favored with no opportunity of doing it. His election 1s hopeless and his party will find itso. He ‘trusts that he may not do harm to the interests of our country!’ You don’t say so! As he cannot be elected, his “expectations” of not ‘ doing harm” sae want ot opportunity] will surely be realized.— ut suppose he could be elected; and that Clay (now beyond the allotted life of man) should die. as Harrison has, let us inquire whether his old federal policy weuld not ‘do harm to the interests of our country.” What is now that policy % First. He would approve of a Monster Bank, which, per se would do immense ‘‘ harm.” Legiiig He’d sell the public lands to specula- tors, and distribute the money (as apolitical bribe) in every State in the Union; thus impoverishing the Sorepiaan and paving the way for an outrage- ous Tariff or Taxes! Would not this do “ harm” to the interests of the country? pe it would ruin the country in ten years—ruin all, but capitalists and speculators ? Give us then, Messrs. Editors, that noble-heart- ed statesman, Polk, for President, and the “ inter- ests of our country” will take care of them- selves '|—Eastern Argus, June 10. Gorne 1t.—The New York Plebian says profers- ing christians will, at the ensuing election of Presi- dent, cast their votes fora duellist, a gambler, a man of habitual profanity ; and will thengo “ up into the temple to pray,” and thenk God that they are not like other men, and especially these demo- crats.

Portland Democrat, june 25. Ratuer Strone.—The honor of the country, and the interest of the working classes, should not be entrusted to agambler, debauchee and duellist.— They are not sufe in the hands of a man so utterly reckless of all moral principle—one who, while before the people for theirsuffrages, is under bonds to keep the peace. If the public records be true, Henry Clay stands before the world a convicted perjurer in two instances.— Port Daily Ameri- can, Jume 25. A Drawn Bartie.—Rathbun, who represents Cayuga and Seneca counties in Congress, made a speech a few days since, in which he said Clay must be a despot, because his name commences with aC. asdid Cwsar’s, Caligula’s and Crom- well’s. The Auburn Journal says that, adopting this rule of judgment of @ man’s character, Mr. Rathbun must be a terrible hard case; for his name begins with R. as do the words Rogue, Robber, Rascal, Ragamuffin, &c.— Albanian, June 26. Asoxrtionists, Loox at Tiis!—The Liberty Standard says, (May 30, 1844,) ‘it is stated that Mr. Frelin en tthe whig candidate for Vice President) has been, and perhaps now is, president of a Bible Society, and if so, ] suggest that he read the first psalm, and especially the first verse: “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the coun- sel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sin- ners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful !” The leaders who nominated him, (on the ticket with Clay) cere little for Mr. Frelinghuysen, and less for righteousness ; they only borrowed his reli- gious fame for Henry Clay’s benefit. Truth, every word of it. A vile amalgamation to catch votes? What cares Clay for religion’? If he caresfor it as a man ought, would he borrow the religious fame of another as a mere cloak to ui- terior aeeveies prospects? Ah, the Liberty Standard is right this ime.—Zastern Argus.

M., to-day, says the Bay State of last evening, the sun shining intensely hot, a young man led a smart full grown live ’coon into Court square byac around the animal’s neck, trying to fin a purchaser for him. No offer was made ; but the several two-legged ’coons gathered around theit four-legger brother, and looked at him with eyes sad and sorrowful. Alas! how different from the manner those emblems ot humbuggery were gazed at and worshipped in 1840! No offer could be ob- tained for poor ’cooney, who [se gee had heard how differently his ancestors had been treated in our city in times gone by; at first he looked deject- ed, then fainted or fell down in a fit, perfectly ex- hausted. Some one, in kindness, threw some cold water upon him, and he soon revived. Somebody in the crowd exclaimed: ‘Shame to throw cold water upon the poer creature! all his party will have the cold chills before next November.” Finally, his owner gave the poor ’coon away, chain and all, and seemed to say as he left the square, “I am glad to quit ’coons and ’coonery, upon any cenditio: '—Boston Times. Wir.—The democracy of Pitteburgh held a meeting in that city, to reapond to the nominations by the Balturmore vention, Mr. McCandless in the course of his remarks said :—‘ The whigs say Mr. Clay isa tried friend ; and so he is He has been tried twice and condemned, and will be exe- outed in November, 1844.” NEW YORK, SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST 10, 1844, 4 ee Price Two Cents, ee eT Letter Envelopes. Mr. Eprrorz,—! observed an article in a recent morning papers suggesting that the President of the United States, the members of Congress, &c. &c., make use of envelopes for their letters, while they prohibit the use of them to privaie citizens, by the imposition ol a penalty equal to the postage on a letter. The idea was io me, I confess, new and somewhat startling, but on reflection 1 perceive that it is literally correct. i The thousands who hold office under our nation- allgovernment,including every Deputy Post Master throughout the country, are privileged to have their letters transmitted by the mails, Whether composed of one or many pieces of paper, at the expense of those private citizens who make use of the govern- ment pee offices for the transmission of their let- ters. In order to draw from the non-privileged class a sufficient revenue to detray the whole ex- pense of the Post Office department, including the free transmission of tons of electioneering docu- ments, under which the mails are now groaning, the rates of postage are kept enormously high; while to keep up the distinction, and secure to themselves an emblem of superiority, the privi- leged classes encare their letters in envelopes, the use of which is prohibited to others by the imposi- tion of double postage. { heartily rejoice, therefore, to learn, that the private mail companies take letters enclosed in envelopes without extra charge. _ In Great Britain, the custom of using envelopes is universal, the post office charge being but one penny on each halt ounce, in weight, without re- Aard to the number of pieces of paper. Our govern- sent will be compelled to come down to the equal aecommodation of the people, or the people will take the letter carrying into their own hands. &o let it be. A _Lerrer Writer. WVaovenr Tousper Crarp.—Oa Wednesday morn- ing (a\ugust 7th) at one o’clock, a sulitary but as- toundi'g clap of thunder burst over our city. Muttitules were startled from their slumbers, each ‘under the full impression that his own house was struck with lightning; and those whotwere awake at the times observing the exceedingly short inter- val between the flash and the report, apprehended the same resu/t. Only one house, however, was struck, and that was a small house situeted in Hill street, near the water. Although no lives were lost, and no great damage was done to the premi- ses, yet the bolt lett very sttong marks of its vic- lence, inhaving tah en no less than four different routes to the earth, either of which would have been sufficient atome to have conveyed any ordi- nary charge. A tall sycamore tree, standing be- fore the house, recei ved one part of the charge, ex- hibiting on its suriaee curious marks of the pro- gress of the flash, which coursed its way in differ- ent ramifications, tearing up the ground on opposite sides of the trunk. 4\ tn pipe on one corner of the house conveyed another purt of the charge, which tore off pieces of thet clapboards. A third branch descended the front chimney into the cellar, where it manifested ias eflects in dislocating por- tions of the stone walt. ‘The fourth branch took the lightning rod, which was attached to the chim- ney in the rear, followed it down to the tin gutter on the eaves, where it left the rod and found its way to the earth througtr the tin spout at the corner of the building. Why did not the lightning rod rotect the premises, and convey the entire charge Barmigad to the earth? ‘Two facts indicated, at the first glance, that the rod was defective in its construction; the first was, that it shared the office of conducting tke flash from the cloud to the earth, with three otkier conductors. Had it been a perfect rod, it would have monopolized the charge. The second was, that the branch of the fluid which entered the rod, left it on reaching the ater, preferring the route to the earth by way of the ndicular tin spout. One defect discover- ed inthe rod was its inferior size, not being more than halt that prescribed for lightning rods; but another detect, and one of far greater importance, was the extremely bad teranination of the rod at the lower extremity. Instead ot deecending to the depth of permanent moisture, (which on this sundy hill is not less than eight feet,) it terminated at the depth of two feet, in dry sand. It might nearly as wellhave terminated in a glass bottle. The por- tion below the ground was also rusty, which tur- ther impaired its conducting powers. It ought to have been protected from rust by a coat of black paint, and by being surrounded by powdered char- coal, neither of whiclrprecautions was.used. The ligh«ning preferred the tin spout to the tin rod, be- cause the former was nearly in contact, at the lower end, with the run of water from the adja- cent wash room. Hence there is nothing in this ease which ought in the least to impair our confi- dence in hghtathe rods when well constructed, al- though it 1s an admonition to all householders to see that their dwellings are protected by conductors which are made according to the established rules of science.—New Haven Herald, Aug. 8. Crors, Season, &c.—The Wisyah Observer of the 3d inst. says: The late drought continues, there having been no rain within the lust tourteen days,— The consequence is the crops in the low lands os well as the up are su! ng to some extent, icularly on the Buy. Mr. liston’s tide mill which is among the lowest down, us also Col. Ward's, have been stopped from pounding to preserve the growing crop, the water being salt at bulf flood. The rice crop, however, will be fally and average one, it not injured by on autumnal gale, and we may say the same of corn, peas and potatows. "The brackish water for the last month has made more sickness in the town in July than we have known in the same month, since 1617 and ‘19. The mortality however, haa been very smail and will enable us to compare bills to advantege, with any town inthe Union with the same population.
