ATTENTION '.The Bough and Eeady Club will hold its first meeting to-night in their new 'Rough and Ready Hall" on first street, immediately opposite our office. The building is completed, is large, comfortable and has scats enough to accomodate a thousand persons. The Ladies and members of the Democratic party are particularly invited to attend. James G. Joses, Esq., and James R. Harper, Esq., will address the meeting. Cj-The Hon. Elisha Embree, Represen tative in Congress from this District, arrived in our city on yesterday looking remarkably well. Jude Embree has been a faithful servant of the people while at Washington, and has the credit of being one of the hardest working members of the House. As a member of the ... t cc t 1 I ,1 committee on rem omces etc., ue us uuuc much for the benefit of the people, and every matter affecting the welfare of the people of this District, has received his close and con stanl attention. No man ever more truly rep resented the interests of a people than Judge i i .tf! i i. . i, :m k r.muree nas anu we arc eauaueu tun nc v n w. received by his constituents wherever he may present himself with pride and respect. We cordiallr return our thanks to Judse Embree for his constant attention to us during the ses sion of Congress, for papra, documents, speech es, &c.without whichwe could nothave kept up with the tims. The Judge left this morning for his residence in Princeton. The above paragraph was accidentally taken out of our form on yesterday to make room for the foreign news which came to hind after our paper had been put to press. CCfGen. Lane, it will be seen by the telegraph despatch in another column, has been appointed Governor of Oregon, in the place of Gen. Shields who heads the "Ousel Owls" in their "Buffalo Hunt on the Rio Grande. .Gen. Taylor. The Louisville Journal of yesterday says: "We understand from one of Gen. Taylor's friends that he will probably be compelled to visit this city in a few weeks on important prjvte business." Ibelaso. Tie publish in another column Additional news from Ireland, differing materially from that published on yesterday. The Louisville Journal of yesterday says: 'The telegraphic despatch, which we publish this morning, gives a different aspect to affairs in Ireland than was represented jn the despatch we gave yesterday. Jt appears that the police were jonly attempting to arest O'Brien. This may have led to some opposition by tie people, but it can hardly be considered a skirmish. O'Brien, who saw no doubt that he and his followers were thrown joff their guard by so un expected a proceeding, wisely eluded the vigilance of the police to prevent his arrest. In another paragraph it is stated that inan engagement with the military, the people were victorious, the former having 6,000 men killed ted wounded, among them Gen. McDonald.

For the Evansville Journal. Eviksville, Aug. 21, 1849. Mr. Chandler: With your permission I

wish to say through the medium of the Jour nal, a few words to the editor of the Democrat. concerning an article which appeared in his pa per of Friday last. I am not in the habit of writing for the news papers, nor dol trouble myself often with tke scribblings of editors, I mind my own affairs and let other peoples alone; and if the smart chap who traveled out of bis way to find fault with the Brass Band for playing a few pieces of music for the '-Rough and Ready Club," had done as much there would be no necessity for this article. But unfortunately we have in this community a print which is and has been, from its first appearance, disposed to find fault with and abuse every body that does not think with it, and of this there is proof enough. The editor of the Democrat, or some other equally trifling fellow for him, says the Brass Band was employed by the Club, when the truth is we were requested and invited by the Club to perform at the meeting, and consented to do so as we had often done before for the democratic party; and as we may do again. The editor slanders us when he says we played music "on keys." We did no such thing, nor do we be lieve music can be played "on keys." nor did we play music on a bass drum, for no such in strument did the band hare, nor were the notes of the Bugle discordant. But a person who cap not tell the sound of two bugles from a bass drum, might well suppose the notes dis cordant or that music was played "on keys. The members composing the Band were a clev er set of fellows when they played for the Gen. Lane festival, or when they tramped for one whole day through mud knee deep to do honor to Richard M. Johnson, or when they went up and down the streets aiding the lamented Capt. Walker to recruit men for Old Zack they were a clever set of fellows then; but now when they accept an invitation to play a fewpieces of music for a club got up to defend and honor "honest old Zack," notwithstanding the members of the Band are , all but one, Whigsjthe editor of the Democrat must carp and sneer at them, and slander them through his columns. But when it is recollected how grossly this whole community was slandered and abused by that print on an occasion to which I have alluded above, it is not much wonder that we have "caught it a few" for daring to play music for a Whig Club, it is altogether likely that we shall offend the Democrat editor many limes between this and the election, but his snarling at us and our performances shall not deter us from accommodating our friends w hen it is in our power to do so; and Since brave Old Zack By skill and tact Has always been victorious, So we will blow our Bugles loud To make his triumph glorious. A BAND BOY. George G. Dunn. In remarking upon Mr. Dunn's first speech in Congress, the Washing ton correspondent of the Baltimore Fatriot says: "Mr. Dunn, of Indiana, made a very able speech on the Oregon bill, and established for himself a high reputation as a parliamentary debater. He is a young man of great merit, modest in bis deportment, industrious in his habits, and powerful in argument. He is the successor of Ex-Speaker Davis, and has come fully up to the high standard where the ExSpeaker said he would be found as a member of Congress. Indiana, and the Whiz party of Indiana, should be proud of him, as well as of Thompson, Smith and Embree, of the same talented delegation. A prominent supporter of Van Buren, in Ohio, recently declared that if they could only get the election to the House, Van would be elected because, said he, he could do the balance by cheating. GEN. TAYLOR IN OHIO. The Boston Atlas publishes a private letter, addressed to a gentleman of that city, from which we copy the subjoined: New Sidon, Ohio, July 22, 1S49. My object its writing is 10 correct a statement, not lo my knowledge as yet contradict ed, and going the rounds of the newspa pers. No man of ordinary political information, and in his right mind, unless for effect, and where contradiction could not be immediate, would at any time since the Utica Convention have assigned to Mr. Van Bureu more than twenty or thirty, or.atjthe utmost, forty thousand of the three hundred and fifty thousand votes of Ohio. I never heard his vote estimated in any quarterat more than thirty thousand; and, from any indication yet shown, that is above the mark. My position for judging is much better than Mr. 'a possibly can be. I see most of the leading Whig and many of the Locofoco State papers regularly; I have heard by letlerand from travellers, within the last three weeks, from most parts of the State; I have been long iu the habit of estimating, with considerable success, gubernatorial and other majorities, and 1 most willingly rely upon the estimates set down above. The Abolitionists of Ohio have complained grievously at the nomination of Gen. Taylor. Nothing less was to have been expected. Their complaints would bare been as frequent and loud had Mr. Claj jur Gen. Scott received the Whig nomination. Thev have not voted with the whig part in a single instance for years, take peculiar delight jn grumbling at what the whig party do, and could not have been induced to act with whigs at the next Presidential election, unless the latter had yielded up their cherished principles, and narrowed down their platform and (heir candidate to a single idea Abolitionism. Some dissatisfaction prevails, on account of the nomination of Gen. Taylor, among a portion of the whigs in the abolition districts; but displeasure at the nomination of Mr. Cass equally prevails among the Locofoco party; and appearances indicate that the loss to each of the great parties will be about equal on account of dissatisfaction, and that the whigs will carry the State.

CRITTENDEN ON TAYLOR.

Inan editorial notice of a speech delivered at a public gathering at Russeliville, IKy. on the 22d ultimo, by thateminentand true-heart-, ed Whiz. Johs J. Chittenden we have met ... ..V. r.i.- ,,.:..' rn. . J wunanouceoi wie iv"ä Presidency which cannot fail to be acceptable to a large portion of our readers: As to Gen. Tatlor. Mr. Crittenden said he though, he would give us the right kind of an Administration. The old soldier had passed through every difficulty safely. He bad never said that he would doanytningDut wnat when the time came for him to act, he was rejdv to act ut to emergency. He had to fight aeainst the disadvantage of two or three to one and he had done it successfully. No one had ever charged him in his long career with dis honesty. Honor and fame could not intoxi cate him, power could not seduce him. He lL ....nnlsn;n. .n IrnMck ,f. ter all his brilliant achievements, as any plain citizen present. He was not bedizened with a . i lace, lie was tne people a man, ana ine man of the people. All could recognise him in his old brown coat as old Rough & Ready s a real republican. If he wanted to paint Ken tucky he would set up old lack and have him . . t. I ii . painiea as me emuouunem. "Here was a man who could heal the wounds of the country. He looked to him with these hopes, and with all confidence, tie knew tnat the other party was striving to draw tne peo ple from him. but it was in vain, lor their hearts were with him. When the day of eiecuoucaujc u auj amu u every other feeling overcome but the one de-; termination to do his duty by Old Zack and his country. ne Deueved weu, layior wouiu De elected. He considered that matter well summed up by the young Kentuckian who went to Philadelphia; who said on his return, that the people were much split up in regard to candidates: that old "Rough and Ready" had a great many friends, but he believed "General a m aa .a a .i.i a Taylor would Deal mm, dui ne inougnt one they called "Old Zack" would beat them bothT Mr. C. had talked with Gen. Twiggs before he left Washington, and the Gen. told him in his decided way, with an oath, that no man could look five minutes in Gen. Taylor's face and make a proposition to him to do a mean action. No act of oppression w as erer charged upon him! No man had ever paid the penalty of death by martial law from the time he fought at Palo Alto to the time he left Buena Vista. He had controlled and guided the army without bloodshed, maintained its honor and discipline, and retired without having done ought lo sullytthe glorious character he had ever main-t tained as an able as well as a humane man. When some deserters were brought to him after the battle of Buena Vista, before the blood they had shed had yet sunk into the earth, he looked scornfully at them and said: My soldiers do not desert these are not my soldiers! Take them back to the camp, drum them out and let them go,' When the Government chided him for not storming Monterey with its twelve thousand men, with his five thousand, what was his reply? Yes,' he said, he could have taken it in that way, but ht did not want to sacrifice the women and children. When be was feted in New Orleans, a friend alluding to the splendid pageant which wouud through the streets of the city, said to him that 'it must have been very gratifying to him.

VAN BUREN AND SLAVERY. . Lorenzo Dow, with a sarcasm as bitter asit was quaint, and which would have been oro - fane in another man. once defined a death-bed repentance to be burning out the candle of life iu the service of the devil and blowing the snuff iu the Lord's face. Of this character is the new love of freedom with which Martin

Van Buren finds himself suddenly animated. ! deared him to the army. Of the more than He is a man who has passed his whole life in' i hundred men reformed drunkards once the service of slavery; so that he has given the at Fort Jesup allowed the benefit of the listrenglhofhis manhood aud all the force of hrary reading room and every privilege consis-

his character; and now, when he has been ov - erwhelmingly defeated by the people in one, canvass, aud ignominiously 'rejected by his own party in the next, when he has neither station nor influence, nothing which he can sacrince, notning wnicn necan risk, he comes forward as the champion of freedom? Hej brings the weapons which he has battered and I broken in the warfare of slavers, and which he has no longer the strength to use with effect and bangs them up in the temple of liberty. . va we are caned upon to admire his magnanimi - ty, to praise nis independence in bursting from the shackles of a party which refused to have anything to do with him four years ago! And more than this, the tried and consistent friends of freedom, the men who have struggled .i u r :i i .il. .i 00 through failure and obloquy in the cause, are expected to abandon alll other organization, aud to arrange themselves under the banner of this new recfuit who has just deserted from the other side, or rather whom the other side has driven sway. In every station to which Mr. Van Buren has been elevated by the Douular suffraee. or has raised himself by successful intrigue, be! has been the fast friend of slavery. As a legislator, as an embassador, as an executive, he has always been true to thisone cause. Change ful upon everything else, upon which both sides of every other great question, this has been the sole consistency of his political life. As Vice President be gave the casting vote for that infamous law authorizing the mails to be violated and the freedom of the press outraged by the destruction of any matter which might be found in them offensive lo slavery; as Secretary of State he directed our minister at Madrid to warn the Court of Spain against "the baneful spirit of emancipation,' w hich was in danger of extending to the Island of Cuba; as President he hastened in his inaugural address to give assurance of his adhesion to the cause of slavery, a pledge which he fully redeemed in his efforts against the liberation of the Amistad negroes, and in the whole force and direction of the executive influence. His gratuitous pledge that he would veto any bill lor the abolition of slavery iu the District of Columbia, is still on record, unrecanted and in full force. He is nominated for the Presidency suject to that pledge. He is still the "Northem man with Southern principles, and iu his letter to the Ulica Convention he reiterates some of his most offensive and ultra slavery opinions, and declares that hejhas not reason lo change them. Now, when such a man is put forward as the representative of the party Li freedom, it seems to us that nothing more inconsistent can be found even in his own po-

liticel career, full as il is of the grossest con-

To the Editor: The author of the following communication is a highly respected clergyman, now pastor of an orthodox church in a neighboring town, and for six years officiated as Chaplain in the United States Army under Gen. Z. Taylor. He kindly sent me the following letter, in answer to some enquiries proposed by me, respecting the character, views, and habits of Gen. Taylor, and knowing that you are ready to publish facts, 1 submit it to you for the public. Yjurs respect full v, JOSEPH WHITE. , June, 1818. Sib: You are no doubt aware that I held the office of Chaplain of the U. S. Army, about six years, being statioued at Fort Jesup, La., and lhat while at that extreme Southern post, I was in daily acquaintance with Brig. Gen. L. Taylor. 1 presume it is on this account that you nrnnnai in me &nmp ntiestinna touch inc the views oi that distinguished individual, i am wiir,ng to reply, not because lam a politician or have anr personal interest in his nomina tion for the Presidency but because I am under lasting obligations to that honest, noble hearted man and I would gladly correct some of the grossest mistakes that are now afloat concerning his character. In politics, Gen. Taylor is a Whig in re ligion, strictly orthodox but in neither is he extreme maintaining his well founded opinions witn me cuui aecisioa wuicu ne nunuesiea on the field of battle! With regard to slavery and extension öfter ritory, 1 assure you lhat neither by a slave market nor any other object, was Gen. Taylor in favor of conquest and annexation. He was not in favor of receiving Texas into our Union nor in favor of the recent war with Mexico. The only evidence of bis being in favor of sla very, that I ever saw or heard of, was the fact, that he did what every man at the South must do, if be would have servants, viz: either own or hire slaves. I do well remember, that a part at least, of the colored people living in bis family; could read well and were very pious. I never heard a word from the General in favor of the slave system, but on the contrary, his aeemea preierence :or me msuiuuoua sou cus toms of the ftorth. It is a pity that General Taylor should be made out a pro-slavery man, because Dis gov ernment keeps him at the south, or for the wrong of allowing his plantation to be on the Mississippi, instead of the banks of the Lon necticut. We are allowed to hang no man up on an inference. 1 assure you, that if elected, he will do more for peace and emancipation, than any Northern man would be allowed to do. Gen. Taylor maintains on all occasions, the habit of total abstinence from all driuks and to this he has ascribed a robust j health amidst the swamps and campaigns of ' Florida and Mexico. 1 would also assure you, t that nothing could be more unjust and uutrue, than that he is a profane man-it is false alto gelher He is a brighl exception to the com . u t-1. - mon practice of prolaneuess in the army. Gen. Taylor is the decided friend of Chris tianitvand unnstian institutions, ue was a regular attendant on public worship in the oirriaAn rrArvi m ti t r1 Kv hit A -m r1 ? ftiol Lviugvi i V.VVU1P4U1WU wi u9 vwtu ptiouvu tu . 9 . i uv and daughter.

About 3 o'clock on Sunday' morning, says the Baltimore Sun, while, Gen.
