The sanction given by the press of the country to the nomination of Gen. - Taylor is almost eutirely unanimous. In our own State wc know of but one paper bear:the proud tille of Whig that has refused to support the Philadelphia Nominees. The paper which we aliud a to is the Lafayette Journal, edited by John IS. Bernaus. The course which this paper has pursued for some years past has injured the great Whig party more than any three Locofoco paper in the State have in the same length of thie. We understand that arrangements are. being made to f stabluh a Whig paper in Lafayette. If this -be true, it will be "Good bye Major. We know there are hundreds ami thousand of good men who were anxious to try the 'age of Ashland" another heat, give him one mure round, and there were those who did not think Gen. Taylor strong Whig enough for them. He is. however, ths nominee by the 4 voice of the people expressed through their Convention, and the question for such as have any doubts about the matter, is whether they prefer the honest and pure-hearted Taylor to the intriguing politician Cass. That is the question. A question which they will, soon settle in their minus. It is live months yet to the election, and, though the day be fr off let tisofler a prediction as to the vote of the First District of Indiana. We predict that (Jen. Taylor will receive a larger majority in this DMäct than did Mr. ProJJit in his best racr. We have a pretty high opinion of our faculty for foresight. For instance our readers will remember the prediction we made some lime prior to the last August election, as to the majority thai Mr. Einbree, would receive over Mr. Owen, and, for which, every Locofoco for weeks afterwards, that we could gel sight of, turned out of our way as though he was about to encounter a member of some Lunatic Asylum. Nevertheless the prediction was verified. The Welters Litebast Empoeicm. Thi splendid Monthly Magaziue devoted to "Literature, Religion, Philosophy; diffusion of useful knowledge, and.the elevation of man is upon our table.

Mr. Barnes is well known to our citizens (he has resided in our cily for several years) as a man of high literary and religious attainments, and he will make the Emporium a work worthy of support. Each numb.7 will contain at least one steel plate engraving and sixty-four pages of reading matter, making two volumes of four hundred pages each, or one volume of eight hundred pages during the year a volume ornament for the parlor table, or library.

Politics asd Oesithologv. The editor or

the Signal, the Barnburner organ ia Cincinnati, thus hails the nominatioiLof Martin Van Buren: . - Nolle oU Martin! In the winter of Vrpe. dora's adversity, like the winced namesake, trie tavor with which the American people once regarded you seemed to Lave flown away, but with Liberty's progress into a sum mt rot prosperity, it returns with hundred fold increase. Gex. Tatlor is Florida. The following extract from a repert of operations in Florida, made by Gen. Thomas S. Jesup, then as now a supporter of the Locofoco administration. shows the estimate placed upon Gen. Taylors military services and talents before he became the Whig candidate for the Presidency: Washington, June 6, 1S3S. G n. Taylor was directed in nrnceed from Tampa Bar. ODen a mad in noark- n m a r r SA M a m J A4 eastern direction into the heart of the country, establish a road at Pese Creek, another on the hissimmee, and attack the enemy in that quarter. He came up with the enemy cn the 25th December, attacked them, and;ln one ot Hubert fought action knou;nö our history, gained a complete tictor-f, though with great loss of officers an-1 inn ; Senator Bright, wuo scintillated from the travelling tail of candidate Cass to address a Hunker meeting at Troy, IS. Y said, "all Gen. Taylor did at the battle of Montereythai terrible conflict was to set on old Whi te, and tell 'era to fight, boys, fiht em." Phil. aV. American. Oh 'tis a burning shame, that a man occupv ing the high position ol U. S. Senator, shoufd thus undertake to disparage and sneer at the personal bearing of the great conqueror in the most glorious Daltle ot the age. The country is told by this Senator that Gen. Tavlor did nothing durjng the battle of Buena Vista, but sit on old Whitey and say "fight 'era, boys, tight em. Although the old chieftain guided an tne great movements upon that immortal field, it is not claimed bv his frieu lw that he made any speeches during the battle half as long as those Mr. Bright sometimes makes in the Senate. Possibly he did not deem it an occasion for overmuch oratory. Sitting calmly upon his old war-horse in the midst of the iron storm that was hurling through the air from the innumerable batteries of the enemy, a few brief sentences such as "fight 'em, boj, fight 'era, anl "a little more grape, Capf. Bragg," constituted the sum total of all bis efforts at rhetorical display. Lord Wellington, at the most critical mom;ut of the battle of Waterloo, merely said ,;up guards aud at 'em. Probably if Senator Bright hid commanded either at Waterloo or Buena Vista, he would have made a terrible stump speech to his soldiers full five hours long, but he would have been very careful to select a stump where he would have been in no danger of having his speech his$cd by the balls. Lou. Jour. Gex. Cass ij New York. The following is from the Wayne county (N. Y.) Sentinel, an ardent Locofoco paper, which, on receiving the noulitia lion of Cass and Butler, placed their names unhesitatiogiy ftt the head of its columns. This is really one of the most striking and significant indications that we have 'seen1 or could vUh4o see: Down goes our Cass ticket. We bow to the Democratic sentiment. Reierence par ticularly to the expression upon this question by the Democracy of this assembled district. A number of individuals placed a Cass flag upon the top of the Democratic liberty pole in this village, on Saturday morning last. A large meeting of the Democrats f this town, in the evening of the some day, by a unanimous vote, directed the same to b; taken down on Momlay morning, and it was done. Bclwer, A new novel by Sir Bulwer Lyt Ion is now in the Harpers' press. It is enti tied "Harold the last of the Saxon Kings." Bulwer has recently lost his only daughter. She was in the flower of youth, amiable and accomplished. Public report (according to a letter from London,) says that Lady Bulwer attempted to see her daughter as she was dy ing, but Sir Edward forbade the unhappy mo ther admission to the chamber of death. The feud between the husband aud wife seems to be bitter indeed. Keokuk. Some cf. the papers, says the Warsaw Signal, are making quite a lamenta tion over the death of the Sue Indian Chief; Keokuk, and passing fine eulogiums upon him. which the truth will not warrant. The fact is; Keokuk was a cruel and wily savage capri cious and tyrannical exceedingly fond ol money, greatly addicted to gambling, horse raciiig.and drunkenness, and the accompanying vices, and possessing neither the confidence of bis triba, nor ths respect of white m?n. Boot Found. The Shreveport (Caddo) Ga zette says: The body of Charles Hawberg, the German Watchmaker, who has been missing for several days, was found on Tuesday, in a dense thicket, near Silver Lake, within the corporation. He had shot himself in the face with a pistol, aud must have died instantly. The piatol and cane of Mr. Thomas Jacobs were found with him, and some eight or ten dollars in his pocket. It is very evident that the poor man was in a state of insanity. fX5The Girrard College is almost a failure at last. The architect has come out iu a regu lar report against the work of his own genius and declares that tue reverberation of the recitation room is so deafening, that they will be useless for the purposes of llieir 'construe lion. The remedy proposed is to line the Gothic arches with false plain ceil ings. " It is amusing to hear the expressions of sympathy which the Dcmocjatic papejs lavish on Henrv Clay. The Union calls him Mthe ora tor the statesman, the brave old civiliau!" Yet these are the very inen w no nave spent their lives ;j slandering' aud persecuting the object of their pment eulogies'. ' . : . .

Thirtt Thousand Whigs iji Council The postponed Whig Ratification meeting took place last nigh in Monument Square. The evening was delightful. Notwithstanding the, announcement, that Mr. Webster could not be present, in consequence of severe indisposition, and the fact that a very large meeting was held last evenning, yet the peoplejpoured out in thousands from all parts of the city, and before nine o'clock the entire square was densely crowded, presenting a . congregated mass of not less than thirty thousand souls. All the windows and doors of the surrounding houses were filled mostly with ladies, who lent their smiles, as if to complete the ratification The stand was handsomely decorated, and a fine band discoursed at intervals most eloquent music. Mr. Thompson, of Indiana, who spoke for over two hours and a half, and during the whole period so completely enchanted the vast audience that scarcely a person lett his position from the beginuing to the end of his remarks. We have time only in this brief notice to say that it was one of the ablest and and most eloquent political speeches we have ever listened to. Every argument was sound, and presented so forcibly that conviction must follow. He was repeatedly and loudly cheer

ed, and though having spoken an unusual lengtn oi time, me multitude did not seem willing that he should stop, which we think is the highest evidence of his merit as a speaker. Having concluded his remarks, Coleman Yellott, of Baltimore, took tha stand and spoke for some time in his usual happy manner. After closing his remarks, the hour being late, on motion the meeting ad journed. A larce procession headed by a band ol music, nags, banners, transparencies, &c. escorted Mr. lhompson to his lodzms at Bar nura's Hotel, where they gave him three hearty cheers. The meeting was altogether one of the larg est and most enthusiastic we have ever seen on any similar occasion. The warmest enthu fiiasra and most perfect unanimity of feeling prevailed. The cheers for Talor and Fillmore were loud and long and öfter repeated. It was 111 ueciueaiy a most glorious meeting and gave evdeucts that nothing can stop the mighty avalanche which is now sweeping over the couutry for old Zack. The spirit is now aroused ana it cannot slumber, until uen. Taylor is President of the United States. Baltimore Patriot. (C5If.the Locofocos of Indiana have the least ambition to make even a respectable show of strength at the next election, they had better appoint a committee to kick Chapman out of the State. Here is a paragraph nel: Taylor swore that our volunteers were cow arda, and of course the Quakers who are To ries and all other Tories will hurrah for him no matter if he had cut the tuoats of their mothers. The Quakers are numerous in Indiana. Their votes have ereat influence upon there suit of every electiou in that State They are as virtuous and conscientious a people as can be found oil earth, yet here we have a locofoco editor, the principal Locofoco editor of Indiana the recognized Locofoco oigan of that State, stigmatizing the w hole of them without dis tinction as "7'oriM" and saying that they would nurran lor a man "trAo had cut the throats of their mothers! V Of course we do not know how the Quakeis will vote at at the November election, or whether Iber Will vote at all, but we know that they are the friends of peace, and we do not think that the Sentinel s denunciation and blackguardism are at all calculated either to force them to vote against Gen. Taylor, who notwithstanding his profession of arms, is 1 er vent in his devotion to the spirit of peace, or to drive them into voting for Cass, who, from his youth up to his nearly three score and ten has been racing for war, and whose thoughts are as bloody as the dream of a famished tigT. Lou. Jour. Horrid Affair. We learn, says the St Louis Republican of the 7th ult., that on Mon day last. David Cooper, a young man about seventeen years of age, killed his uncle Sam" I Cooper, nearRencheler's five miles from town It is represented, that these persous belonged to an emigrating party from Tennessee, ou their way to Arkansas; that, the young man's father and uncle were drinking, that the father had whipped bis mother, and the uncle said he would beat her to death. Some altercation too place between the parties, the boy, taking the part ofbis mother. The boy attempted to ge out of bis war, but the uncle pursued him and young Cooper seized a rail, struck the old man a blow over the head and killed him. The young man delivered himself into custody at Belleville, and an examination was to take place yesterday afternoon. The whole aflair, from its iuception to its close, is a heart sickening one, and may justly be charged as the legitimate result of whiskey drinking. How the Mississippi Recimest will vote. The Louisville Journal of Saturday says: The Mississippi regiment, numbering about 300, came up from New Orleans on the steamer Gen. Layfiyette. At Baton Rouge they found Gen. Taylor upon Ihe wharf and gave him three tremendous cheers. The might of their lungs were wreaked upon the effort. One ot the best known and most respectable gentlemen of this State, who caraeup on the LafayettP, informs us that he made a business to go among the oflicers of the regiment and to make inquiries as to their votes upon the Presidential question, anj, trm 113 aia not find a solitary man among them tcho did not avow a acierminaiiOt 10 voic jor usnzrui Taylor. Murder, We are informed that a man by the name of Gibson entered the office of Dr. S. L. Jones, in Rock-bouse Prairie: between 10 and 11 o'clock on Monday night last. Dr. Jones ordered him out and followed hiin to the door, where Gibson seized him by the collar and stabbed him 111 the abdomen with a butch: er knife, inflicting a mortal wound some eight inches in length Jonra died the next night. lie was a popular physician and a good citizen; his melancholy fate is generally lamented.

So wrote yesterday an upright, intelligent, strictly temporale and useful citizen, a member of the Luzerne County bar and lately Deputy Attorney General lor said county. Atew words in explanation. Some three weeks since our member of Assembly returned from Harrisburg ill and was visited by his friends, by Blackman among the number. His illness proved to be Varioloid. The infection was spread, many tases have occurred, all very wild ones, but people became unnecessarily and foolishly alarmed. Blackman who has recently lost his wife and child, has been more than usually melancholy, and his miud somewhat diseased. In this state of feeling be was attacked by the disease, mildly like the other rases, but found himself shunned, and I am sorry to say it, driven from among those whose friendship he had a right lo claim. From his father's he was driven by a mob. On Wednesday last that father (1 write the solemn Iruth, would to God it was not so) left him in a grove while he went to his physician to a&k tor that shelter for his son which he had refused to give him.

We remember a rem akahle dream which occurred at a lime when a little being came bnt lo leave us again, whom we had hardly thought could have claimed a place in our heart, but for the void it left; and it always recurs to our mind when we hear ol new life aud old death meeting thus instantly on the threshold. . We dreamt that we were conveyed by some mysterious gnide to the entrance ol this earth. It was a kind of gallery, through which angelic beings, ninged and beautilul, were rapidly passing, all towards the earth; some with grave, others with hopeful as pects, their expressions as various as thev were legible. "What does this meant" we ?aid. "Who are. the passing spirits that go all one way. and why are their countenances so Tarious?' Our companion replied: "They are guardian angels, each on his way to take charge of a new-born infant. They know not its ultimate doom, but they know ol the sphere to which it is born, and the probable sins and temptations it will be exposed to. Look at the angel," he said, with a serious mein, as if a hard duty were belure him! His charge is the child of the rich aud noble of the land, who will bring hi in up in pride and luxury; and his beait will grow hard and selfish, aud selfishness in hi"h places has few sorrows, and without sorrow the voice of hid good angel will hard1 be beaid. "And see that spirit who passes with eagar, hopeful look 1 To him is committed the child ot a vicious lather, who is rioting at this moment that a child is born unto him. But open vices aie nut so baneful as specious virtues. Tue child's heart will be wouuded aud humbled in the sins of his te ther, and, iu piying the penally ol another'? guilt, he will himself geek the paths of vi tue. 1 Then another spirit passed, with firm but peacelul aspect "His charge will be arduous. The child now born will have willul and tumultuous passions, and his heart will be stubborn aud perverse, aud he will defy authonty, and go far wrong, aud ihe world will say there is no redemption lor bun, aud even bis lathers face will be turned Irom btm. Uut in Ihe silence ol a sick chamber, a mother will plead incessantly for him, and the child ol innny prayers shall be brought home to the fold." Then came one with anxious mien, and he was guardian loa genius who would win the applause and idolatry of thousands; and a second, with heavenly compassion, beauti ful, and moving lo behold, and he was hurrying to the obscure offspring ol sin and shame; and a third, calm and peaceful, summoned to preside over the even tenor of a poor or phan, who inherited the blessings of sainted parent?; and a fourth, full of solemn anxiety, who hastened lo receive his charge Irom a royal cradle: and a fifth, whose countenance of heavenly wo we dared not ask t he ca'use of; and ininy more, all going to the varied posts to the children of the good and bad, the high and the low, ihe careless and unb -lieviitg till we were tired of asking; when, suddenly, carne one, distinguished from all by the radiance of joy upon him. What is his charge!" we said, "surely must be that of sumo' future saint upon eanh?" o,,? said our conductor, "he is the angel of a child who has died at its birth, aud ir going lo carry it straight to heaven." And then we c woke and found it was only a dream; but ever since then we have never heard of ihe death of an infant without thinking ol ihe joy on that angel coumen auce. Bkautifcl Extract. Among ships, ihere are some which sail for distant lands aud never teach their haven, among flowers, there arc some which are overtaken by untimely frosts, and never gain their bloom: among sol lier, there are some who fall before the campaign is hardly begun: and so ii is with us. Yoti have left your happy homes, some of yon a thousand miles, and hero with us you begin your professional career. We do nol turn you all back again. On some the grave has chised, and instead i f ihe gy friends of our loved homes, they are inhabitants of ihe cold chambets of the dead: or, as there are in that shad wy wot Id reward for whatever is noble and good, as there are hearts thai are lamented with us, they are not desolate nor alone. For there is a good Providence lint watches around ihe bed ol the dying student, that softens the footsteps of the pale Angel ofdeath, that lulls ihe last hour with tones like distant music to him who is tailing asleep; and as lies of the mind and body break one by one, so terrestrial ob jects fade away, and the hum of a distracted woi Id grows faint and more faint, lhat unfolds serene prospects of happy climes, fairer than the landscapes of bis own native cotintiy, more pleasant than the vales that are in the Fortunate Islands.
