Mr. Fllmore was then duly declared to be the choice of the Convention as a candidate for the Vice Presidency. GEN. TAYLOR'S POSITION. The Louisiana Delegation to the Whig Na tional Convention, submitted to that body a paper prepared by them in reference to Gener al Taylor's position. The paper was read by Mr. Saunders, of La., and ran thus : "The position occupied bv Gen. Taylor, in relation to the Presidency, does not 6eem to be correctly understood by many persons, and for .!.. a . t it inai reason, u is aeemea proper dv me delega tion of Louisiana to make such explanations and statements in relation to that position, as may euectuaiiy remove all doubt, and the effect of misrepresantation on that point. Gen. Tailor has taken no part in bringing u: .. ; luis llama uriure me American people in con nection with the Presidency, nor does he present bis name to this convention as a candidate. His friends throughout the country, ra ther discouraged than encouraged bv him. havi placed him prominently before the nation, as worthy of tilling the place once occupied by the Father of hu Country, and Gen. Taylor from a sense of duty, has assented to tue nomi nation. 'He considered himself in the hands of his friends who have honored him with their choice He has publicly and repeatedly stated that they might withdraw him - whenever they thought the interests of the country, in their opinion required it. He does not consider that under the circumstances in which his nam has been brought forward, that it would be proper in him to withdraw himself. Such has been his position since he assented to the use of his name, subsequent to the capture of Monterey, and sucti is Ai position now. 'Oa behalf of the delegation of Louisiana, I will further state that Gen. Taylor desires it to be understood, that, in his opinion, his friends who come into this convention are bound to abide by its decision, and to sustain the noroi nee "heart and soul" that General Taylor recognises in his friends in this convention those who have the right to withdraw his name and will cheerfully acquiesce in such with drawal.

Music of the 4Iammes. But, after all,

wore we to seek out only one sound in the world, as a representative or expression of Jife, business, health, vigor and improvement we should certainly name the sound of the hammer. What on earth is there that is more cheeringf It is iho very note of preparation for business, and gives a thrill that is peculiar to itself, and to all that he men around it. What brines the morning so fresh and vi vid to the mind of the sluggish as the ham mer which sounds from the neighboring roofs. It is the veriest reproach an indolent man can nave, ana speaics siraigui iu me nein, iu those quiet, manly tones, which only the sincerest friendship employs. And then, how much ia in that sound besides! What a . . . m . t ft . a range can fancy take when such a sound comes forth! Theie is the workmen on the roof of a new building, or in the shop of a mechanic, or the store of a merchant. It is the carpenter, the blacksmith, the tinman, the jeweler, or the worker in marble; all industrious, all busy. The "sound of the hammer" is the not that forewarns the woild of the whereabouts of the hard workin 2 man. About it there is no concealment. The man he owes, hears it, and waits conten ted, feeling thai' he is safef There is a spi rit in the sound ol a hammer which affects more or less nearly the whole .wotld. Som people go through life without noticing one sound from another in the multitude of noi ses around them; but we will answer for the sound of the hammer, that not one ever heard it without beinff conscious of an expression either positively pleasant or certainly painful. Mechanics should stick to their hammers for they are sentinels of industry and bestowers of praise. . Ihe hammer is an instrument oi power and greatness. By it are forced the sword of contention and ihe ploughshare of peace By it are forged the press of the free, and (he shackles of the shve." Let our mech in ics in the emblem of the hammer, always be hold an instrument to unfetter the darkness of ihe mind and to drive truth and knowledge home t the hearts and consciences ot those who look snecringly upon labor as the Sniiil forges the nail or the spike which unites to gether the timbers of our leviathiins of the deep, or the timbers of ihe frabfic that can opy, the proud, the fair, and gay. The French Sewing Maciiixe. The inventor of this machine is an humble artisan who is a great mechanical genius, and who has been engaged for thirty years in the per fection of his invention, lie received a patent for it in France a few years ago, and it is said lhat for more than twenty-five years he sought in vain to make it work, and thai the thought flashed all at once upon his mind regarding its true and perfect principle. The machine was introduced into London some lime last year and has attracted much attentiou in that city- It is very cheap Some are sold for twenty dollars and the price varies from that to thirty. They are sold by a Mr. Schmidt, ro. 23 Sutton-streel Loudon. The machine is fixed on a table, and is a very small box. It is worked by a treadle, and every movement of the foot pro duces a corresponding action in the needle so that 300 stitches can easily oe made in a minute, lhe hands are merely used lo guide the material being sewn, and by turn ing a screw the size of the stitch is instauily vaned. i he machine will sew, stitch, and form cords and plaits. The stitch is the tamboui or crotchet stitch. The whole val ue of the invention consists in making machinery do what was hitherto done by the fingers, and thus resolving a problem supposed nnpiaciicable. The beauty of this machine is that it can woik button holes and embroider. M. Magnin who exhibited it in London wore an entire suit worked by it, consisting of coat, vest pants and all tlieirappurtenances. To France belongs the credit of this invention. M.Thimonuier is lhe name the invent r, and his fame willgodjwn to posterity with that of Jacquard. D. C. L. Wants or the Working Classk. Two things are required on the part of the working classes to adjust themselves to the state of society as one altering and improving: skill or practical knowledge, so tha when one branch of . productive labor fails from improvement or fluctuation, thev miy resort to another, and economy, that tbey may provide against a "rainy day,M and instead of seeking relief in comb nation and oil! cage, have the means of support until the airival of more favorable times. These qual ities will appear only where there has been some iraiuing of the head and heart. Lei then the mind be taught to think and lhe judgement be fined for conect decision, and 'ha difference will be manifest as it is now in cases occasionally witnessed; iho intelligent will not be dupes of demigngues or incendiaries, and lhe thrift j will discover a higher tone of feeling than their improvident neighbors. TnB Arisrccbict Coming. The English fashionables, it is said, are coming ovei here in shoils the coming aeasou.

A Good Move among "Workmen.

The Pittsburg Post states that a large num ber of workmen in the different rolling mills in and about Pittsburg Jiave it in contempla tion to erect a new iron establishment fur nish their own capital, conduct their own business and share the profits equally. It is pro posed that two hundred persons, practical . . . . V, . i;ii workmen, should cornoine tneir capuai, skiu and energy, and form a company, to be got erncd by rules and regulations of their own adoption. Each member shall furnish 500 dollars to be put into a capital of 100,000 dollars, with which to commence business. Each member of the association will have a particular branch assigned to him all will be actively employed and there will be no drones or idlers. In addition to the manu facture of iron of all kinds, the? are thinking of establishing in connection therewith a sheet tin manufactory. We believe there is not an establishment of this kind in the United Slate; and persons who worked at the business, in EngUnd know that the facilities for manufactuiing in this country are as good as anywhere, else. The Hock tin, which is principally imported from Peru, forms about 10 per cent of the ingredient of the8heel;the balance being iron, ofcotme the manufacture - will not be so difficult as some suppose. This is a scheme that heartily commends tself to our views on such subjects. Theie is no other way in the world for workmen to elevate themselves thin by such schemes as this. Why should they not, and why can they not, enjoy both the fruits of capital and labor. "A Beatttoti. Poex. Th i attention of the reader is directed to another column for an original poem on Light. It is very beautiful really a gem. The author is D. Bates of ihia city, whose exquisite line?, entitled "Speak Geniry," have been circulated far and wide throughout the old world aa well as the new. Mr. Bates is a true poet and as modest as he is meritorious. He is a broker of Philadelphia is engaged in an extensive business, and is deservedly esteemed by all who enjoy the pleasure of his ac quaint ance. We hope for other favors from thesajne graceful aixd giited pen." Yhil, 6at. Gltjntr. LiunT, BT O. BATES. ' Thou Sun ! from whose broad disc ethereal rays Are poured prof usely over land and sea. Uutii all nature kindles in the blaze I wonder not the Perblin3 worship thee; l'or I have stood and watched thy morning beams " Empearl the landscape, bathed in crystal dew; Or dance at evening on the crimsoned streams; Or fringe the clouds thut veiled thee from my view, Until 1 felt that I could almost worship too. Thou source of life and light ! whose magic power Sustains the changes oi the rolling year; Paints the young verdure, and the opening flower, And permeates the earth and atmosphere.

While darkness like a p .11 enwraps her tomb; Still shall this Light ia glorious triumph shine. Already has it broke the mental night That hung upoa the world ita withering ban; And nations now are rising in their might Both king and subject hold whate'er they can Each one alike surprises to find himself a man. Ita march is onward, like a rushing tide That ebbs not though the stream may rise and fall, Sweeping oppression, tyranny, aside; Thrones, sceptres.titlfs verbal nothings allShall vanish as the mists at morning's dawn: Its foes must yield, or, overwhelmed, be hurled From their high seats: from clime to clime, still on, Its banner shall be over all unfurled.
