There were a large number of Delegates present, and everything passed off with harmony and una .nimity of feeling. On the 3d balloting, Mr. Wm. Reavis, of Pnnccton, was nominated as the Whig candidate for Congress. His nomination was made unanimous, and hailed with great enthusiasm. The proceedings, of the Convention will be published on Monday. Having but just returned home .last evening, we arc unable to enter into particulars at this time. It was a first rate nomination, and will rein. v 07"The Locofocos are affecting to be wondrous ignorant of the whereabouts of Whig enthusiasm. They can't discover any anywhere, but they can see very plainly that Pierce and King are going to be elected by a larger majority than Jackson or Harrison. We are not disappointed at this conclusion, for the same kind of calculation that set down the tremendous out pouring of the people at Niagra as a failure, would elect Pierce and King by even a larger majority than they claim. The "signs of the times" would indicate that those two chaps will come just about as near being elected, as the Niagara meeting came being a failure. A Scott Iolr. An intelligent German gentleman, out in Gibson, who was a delegate to the Con gressional convention that nominated Smith Miller, and voted for his nomination, has re cently, by the aid of some of his Democratic neighbors, raised a splendid pole on his own private account, and run up the names of Scott and Graham. No enthusiasm! (j"An unreffened exchange paper say3 tha perfume is employed by yonng ladies as a iubstitute for water and yellow soap.

So-, fellow-Whigs, if any of you arc living upon the hope of getting admittance to Gen. Pierce's presence, you had better turn Pierce men as soon as possible. Madison Manner, Served him right ! had no business to cal on Gen. Pierce, had better been at home. Gen. Pierce is now in "durance vile." He is not at liberty to sec whom he pleases. More over, if he was a southern gentleman, he wouM of course have a most revolting feeling toward him ; if a western man, he would loathe the sight of him ; if a Catholic, there is a test in their Constitution which prevent euch men from holding fellowship with the leading spirits of New Hampshire !

The People IlUiii. The Democracy are everywhere becoming more and more rabid in their denunciations of Gen. Scott, and dealing out their libelous

vomit with that reckless activity which always characterizes the conduct of desperadoes in a desperate cause. The people, the entire country over are giving unmistakable evidence that they are to be no longer led by the "spoils loving" gentry who set themselves up as dictators, for the purpose of practicing their accustomed duplicity and betraying the confidence of the honest mass of their party. The peo ple of the West are becoming awakened to their true interests, and are determined not to trust them again in hands that ha e hitherto ncglectedopposed, aye, and defeated the very measures calculated to promote their pros perity. Will the people of the West, who want and will have their now obstructed channels ef commercial communication im proved and rendered accessible and safe, trust those interests to men who have opposed and difccUd them as often as opportunity offered! This question is receiving a merited and emphatic negative at the hands of Western Democrats, who are daily seceding in hundreds from the party, that has trampled their dearest interests under their feet. The lives und property of the honest, hard-fisted navigators of Western waters, will be no longer jeopardized by their own consent, by trusting measures for their relief in the hands of the "unfaithi'ul stewards," that have so often betrayed them. Will fiiends of internal improvements, and especially, those favorable to the judicious Railroad cnttiprize of the West, tiust that interest in the hands of the party whose "chosen leader" refused them a --Turnpike." A measure which received the sanction of Gen. Jackson, and the encouragment of every liberal member of Cougress! The great and vital question is now before the people, to choose, not whom they will serve, but who shall serve them. In making this choice, we would direct attention to the records of the past, as evidence of the future policy to be pursued by the Locofoco3, should they again be c.cvated to power. We cau assure the people of the Great West, that they will search in vain for the vote of (Jen. Pierce, that has offered the smallest tithe of support to any Western measure, upon which he was called to legislate. On the contrary, the records of Congress show his every vote, arrayed in direct hostility to every measure that squinted the least favor to Western prosperity. He even carried his opposition so far as to record hi3 vote against the "Cumberland Road" because it tended in a Wes tern direction. He, no doubt, if he would express hiuuelf as candidly as he did upon the Slavery question at New Boston, would say that he loathed evert measure that would remove a snag, or a bar from cur riv ers, make a harbor more accessible and safe to our commerce, or give us a RailroaJ her?, or a turnpike having a Western direcioii. The question now presented to the people of the West is one of incalculable importance. It involves the selection of men who have been, and are identified with the great National measures of public policy, mong which, at the present time, more ths.n ever, the internal improvement system generally, ranks above all others in its im portance to the nc.ly settled" States of the West. The Whig party are the only expo ncnts, as a party, of this system. Locofocoism generally, and Pierce and King in partic u'ar as the record of their votes clearly de monstrate, have a most ABHORRENT LOATHING of all such measures!! Lonos Island. The New York Herald publishes the letter of the Hon. Daniel Webs ter, relative to the owneisuip oi the Lobos, or Guanno Islands, a controversy, which a present is attracting considerable attention both in this country and Lurope. I he Sec retary gives, as his opinion, tlut the Lobos Islands, being moro than a marine league from the coast of Peru, cannot properly be considered as part and parcel of that country; and, further, that if a titl j to them is to be besed upon priority of discovery, they evidtntly belong to the United States having been visited and described bv the captain of a New York schooner as far back as 1ÖJ3. In consequence of this opinion the Secre tary of theNüvy directed CointiioJore McAley of the "Pacific squaciron, to send a wur vessel to those islands, to protect the interest of American citizens who might be there. The government of Peru has lately, however endeavored to give prouf to the United States government, that tiiey have exercised long since, rights of ownership of the Lobos Islands, thus changing the whole aspect of the case. The matter will probably be discussed in Congress. Lotf. Coar. Georgia. The Savannah Republican, the leauing organ of the Constitutional Union party in Georgia, emphatically declares that party dissolved. Of the three Whigs who were put upon the Union Pierce ticket, twu Messrs. Crawford and Thomas have declined. A number of counties have held meetings, and elected delegates to the Scott Stale convention. On the other hand, a number of other counties have chosen delegates to the State convention, which meets the day previous, and is intended to nominate Webster and Jenkins. The strongest'spirit seems to prevail everywhere throughout Georgia in tavor of preserving the Whig party from any considerable defection to theWauks cl Pierce and King, and the friends of a third candidate arc using great exertions to unite all the Whigs of the State in some determined movement to defeat Pierce.

Fierce and Kin; Ajjalnst the Poor Ncillei . On page 1 IS IG of the Senate Journals, 2nd session 25th Congress, we find that Franklin Pierce and Win. R. King voted against, and 1-y their votes dfcata, the fol lowing amendment to the b;il providing fur the reduction and graduation of the price of public lauds : "Sec. 3. And U it farth r cnacl'd, That when any of the public lands of the United Mates huvc remained unsold for the pace of I f .een years after the termination of the public sales, the same may be entered and purchased by actual settlers, on the following terms and conditions, to-wit : If a settler is desirous to purchase for his residence, eighty, or less than eighty acres, he may enter and purchase the same at 50 cents per acre." The proposition for het protection of the poor settler was rejected yeas 21, nays 23; Pierce and King, the present Democratic candidates for President and Vice President, voting the negative, against Messrs Clay and Crittenden of Kentucky, and Foster of Tennessee, who supported the amendment. II Pierce and King had voted for instead of -gaiml this proposition for the benefit of the poor settlers, the result would have been precisely reversed and the vote, instead of ajaiiist it, 23 to 21, would have been for it, 23 to 21. Such is the practical Democracy about which we hear so much sclf-vauntin; thjontical glorification. Xas. True Whig. The New Yokk Crystal Palace. We understand, sys the Scientific American, that this work will go on; the company is to have the building ready by the 2d of May, next year, at"Rescrvoir square," in that city. Some important rogulations have been adopted to carry out the objects ot the society, and for this purpose, some discordant, elements have been removed. A number of de signs hive been presented for the building, but only two are worth looking at; they are the Hnglish one by Paxton, and the American uue by BogurJus we Iiuve had an opportunity of looking at both plans, and we must say, that the one by Mr. Bogardus is far the best in every respect in beauty, grandeur, originality, strength, simplicity ,and economy. If erected, us it should be, it will be an honor to ourc.untry. It is in the doric style of architecture, and is of a circular form, w;t!i u tall tower in the centre, rising grandly above all. The whole area of 4,000 feet in diameter will be embraced at one glance' while changing points of beauty, owing to its form and the regulaiity of its columns, will be like a panorama to visitors. And one grand element in the calculation a trcly American oiu is, that, alter it has accomplished its object in the exhibition, it can ba tuken djwn into parts, and lilted into a number of public or private dwellings. All the parts are so cast and litted they cun be taken to any part of the world, and will all dovetail together. This ia a very different feature from the London Crystal Palace. What the projectors of this Crystal Palac may do for the improvement of the arts, it will add to their reputation, if his noble design be adopted Ly them.

The enjrine wasset to work to pump it out. Iy this means the water was reduced seme fifteen feet, but no furfurther. A lrge quantity of gas rushed up from the water, which, on beeing set on fire, exploded with a loud report and blazed to the hieght of thirty feet, burning with preat and undiminished brilliancy. It was extinguished wi;h greatdilficulty. The quantity of gas seems inexhaustible. Madison Banner. Washington Items. Randall Hunt and 3Ir.

Tli's slight tcnJency to disagreement v;s, however, always soothed with so much gracj and tenderness by the Countess that the harmony of the imnit'je could scarcely be said to be disturbed by tlic?c accidental false notes, and every thin": went on as smoothly as ever after the departure of the young dragoon had left young wile- v ithout apparent cause, her eyes grew dim her cheeks grew pale, her hand shook as though she had been struck with palsy, and a slK-rt i!ry "cough tilled the anxious husband with alarm. His attention, however redoubled, he never left the patient's side and when, at length, after every trial had been made to restore her health, she found herself laid on a sick bed, the Count stirred not from her pillow, administering every potion with his own hand, and, by soothing discourse and kind words, exerting himself to smooth the dark pass ige to the next world, which the doctor said must, in spite of ujl efforts of skill, bo made ere long, The dread ed moment at length arrived, the; priest had perl rm ?d t .o last kind nfhces.for the j e ice departing soul, and then the lovely young Countess begged to speak with her husband alone. He approached the bedside overcome with grief. L'ie had wished to thank him before fhe left him forever for all his kindness and unfailing confidence in her, and to confess with the deepest regret and humiliation that she had been, rotu ithstanding all his indulgent love, the ni.st depraved, the most miserable of shiners. "Oh forgive me!" exclaimed she; ' I have been unfaithful to my vows; I have lovei another; I have deserved this early death." She looked in his face and awaited his answer; it rung in her failing ear accompanied her rpint in it tnght. I thought so, love. I was sure it was the c'se, and, angel of my soul, that is just why 1 have poisoned you!" The nur.-e, who had been listening without, hurried at on;e to the nu'horitie and gave her deposition.

It is to regain his position that he now condescends to sue lor u place. Correspondent J of tin Louisville Journal. Buelixgtox, Iowa, Aug. 8, 1852. Gextle.mp.x: Knowing the interest you take in politics generally, and in those of the West in particular, I drop you a line concerning he election of lat Monday in this faroff corner of the world. In this county (heretofore Democratic) the Whigs made a clean sweep of everything except eou::ty Ju-Igeewliich was not contested on party ground, and wc have elected John P. Cook to Congress from this district, the stronghol 1 of Loeofocoifm a thorough-going energetic Whig. In the first district, llenn, Locofoco, is probably elected, though by a small mnj rity. The Democrats probably have th? Legislature, though as far as heard from the Whig have gained largely ; we have eleven Senators, certain, and nineteen members of the lower house, and a strong probability of several more, though not a majority. T:sc Whigs feci highly encouraged, as in the last Legislature they had but four Senators and live members of tiic House. One thing is prvtty certain, that or.r "fancy Senator's" race is nearly run; and, if a good Whig is not elected to t'io U. S. Senate, the Whigs have power sul'icient to prevent th re-ekcti.m of mi h a mm as G;o, W. Jones j to a position he was never intended by na iure tu occupy. Though Fillmore was the choice of Iowa, these who sought t nominate him are now as ardent in tlu-ir support of the old veteran, Scott; and, if our late election is any proof that "coming events cast their shadows before," you may calculate that, in November next, I.r.va will cast lu-r little vote with New York and Kentucky, against the enemy cf internal improvements and lor the Hero ol Chippewa.

Scott Settles the TVort heasteru ISouudary Difficulties. Serious difficulties arose in the winter of

He arrived at Anmista. thf rnnit.nl nf tbo I State, on Ihe Cth of March, 1S39. The Legislatere was in session, and he was received by a public meeting of legislators, soldiers, and citizens, on the following day, in the Legislative Hall. His reception was of the most flattering description, and marked by every demonstration of respect and admiration. He devo.ed himself at once to the work of allaying the excitement that existed, and establishing a basis for the accommodation of the existing disputes. The Governor of New Brunswick, Sir John Harvey, was an old acquaintance and friend of General Scott, they having met and established an intimacy during the war of 1812. Y ith him GeneralScott opened a s-mi-offi-cial correspondence in relation tothe pressing exigencies of Ihn occasion, which led to the most happy results. Official negotiations lollow ed. General Scott remained in 3Iaine for several week?, and occupied himself incessantly in bringing about a good understanding between the authorities on both sides. His labors were arduous and perplexing in the extreme. Conllicting judgments were to be reconciled, and exasperated feelings were to be subdued. But his untiring efforts were at length crowned with signal success. The troops on both sides were in a few weeks withdrawn, and a good understanding established between the belligerents. Gen. Scott reaped new laurels for his skillful management of this delicate negotiation, and earned a new claim to the Great Pacificator, so properly his due for his previous success in South Carolina, and on the Canada frontier. Gen Pierce on Kiver und Ilnrbois. In the session of 1835-'C, and w hile the Democratic candidate was a member of the House of Representatives, a bill passed Congress, giing, among other appropriations, the following sums : In the improvement of Cleveland Harbor, - $15,000 In the removal of obstructions at Black River, -In the removal of obstructions at Grand River, -In the removal of obstructions at Conneaut, -For improvements at Huron, C,000 C,000 2,500 4,300 This bill, in spite -of all opposition, was carried through both Houses of Congress, and was signed by General Jackson himself, but among the mys is recorded the ramc of Franklin Pierce. This vote is a fitting commentary upon the cliuse of the Democratic platform which declares : "Tit it the constitution does not confer uroi the general government the power to commence and carry on a general system of internal improvement." Already have the party organs of the Lake region t o nmenced quibbling about this Dem ocratic principle, and attempted to show that from its application are excepted lake im provements. This is s icer humbug. If the Democratic platform means anything, it is unflinching opposition to all internal improvements. In settling the question whether the har bors on Lake Lne are included in the gene ral system of internal improvements, to which the Democracy is opposed, General Pierce a vote is conclusive. He has put it upon the record that the liar bors of Lake Erie are not entitled to the care and protection of the government. We trust that the voters of tic lake shore country will enlarge their views upon their rights, and upon the duties of the government toward their section of the country.- -Cteav land Herald. Some 3000 hogs were sold in this county the past and present week to Tcnnesseans at v'4 50 gross. They drive them to Tennessee to fatten and thence take them to the Southern market.
