TO THE WIIIGS OF YA?tDERRG FELLOW CITIZENS I Encouraged by the example of civhig brethren all over the U.iion, to hope it by the adoption of proper measures weay scure that harmony anl unanimity of ction among ourselves, which ihould alvt'S prevail among those who profess the sa principles, and without which all ou eSbris ts establish and carry out our pciples must be vain and fruitless, we be formed Eurseke3iuto a Clay Club foPigeon Township, as one means of proicing arnong ourselves that kind of coial feliug which every whig should de to see prevail.

Let us every one determine to meet each other half way, an in a spirit of compromise, determit-Lthat'or the sake of ; harmony we will concede ere thing but our principles and our honor. In August, we shall have elect a county cHi!ni;s;iO!ir, a counfv Jiasurer, ana a i Representative, and a Sen;or in the Slate'" Legislature; "and next wintr the Legisla- ; tare -must elect a Senator i-'Coueress.

Our sharp sighted opponents are well j awaieof this.and.knowiugfhat even slight di-! v:sio:w may be destructive to us,we find them, j previous to every election, soliciting Whigs to become candidates, promising them their support, iud, with great apparent sincerity assuring them, that as to them, and the particular ojjicesfor which they are candidates, the party lines will not be drawn. The consequence is that from two to eix whigs are candidates for the same office, while the locofocos always manage to have a smaller number, and forgetting their pledges to the whigs, when the day of the electiou arrives they draw the party lines, and elect one of their own party. f:i nrnnf itf th t w mioht rffr li inniim- ... .0.1 . . r.-iri:o r.'raricc: nil over the State, but it is ' sufficient for our purpose to recur to the lections in th'13 county for Treasurer tin 1841, ar.d for ShariJia 1813. For Ticamrer wb had four whig3 running against two locofo cos. Had not all these whigs assurances of support from locofocos? They must have had or som of them would not have contin tied candidates, for each knew that his opponents would all get some whig votes, and that the balance would not be sufficient to elect biin unless increased by the addition of locofoco votes. Tlie result in both cases was that a locofoco was elected. Were there not as good roea among the whig candidates? And will any one say that either of the men elected was the'eho'ee of a majority? A large majority voted against each of them,and there can be but little doubt, that either of them would Jiave been defeated, if he had run alone against any one of his prominent whig ojponents. We do not object to a man's filling a county office shnply because he is a locofoco. There are plenty of themfwho are good and competent men. The objection is that the very fact that we elect locofocos to county ofli-

cesgites their party a show of strengtlitchich it does not possess. Success in these'minor elections encourages them, gives them confidence, and makes them active and industrious, while it discourages the vhigg,causes them first to doubt their strength, and ifdefoated two or three times, in succession, at las! to conclude that all is lost, and that they might as well stay away from the polls. In other words these patty victories cause Chapman's Cock to get upon the high places all over the State,and proudly clap his wings and claim his victories, and defy us to another contest; while this audacious boldness of his enemy, cause that same old Coon, who in 1810,iu one uninterrupted triumph traversed the Union, to doubt his strength and disposes him to "climb .down1' and give up the contest. The only way to prevent this to watch the enemy, and whenever he attempts to crow take him by the neck and choke him, and if we will repeat this operation whenever an opportunity offers, instead of his proud crest, his cow-feathers will be his most prominent feature in November. Divisions among the irhigs have enabled

the locofocos to fill Congress and the Legislature with their friends, and to elect a locofoco Governor. No one believes that the politics of this State have undergone such a change since 1840, as to enable them to effect tins in a fair contest. We have quarrelled among oursclees, and instead of uniting as brothers and laboring for the common good, we hare endeavored to destroy each other, and the locofocos in their Kind ness have always been ready to lend a helping hand in this laudable work. To the end that this may not be the case again in this county, we propose that a com mittee of five be appointed in each township Pts of a county Committee of enrrrsponJence. ihat a Llay Club be turned m eaci' Township.

Johnson's adherents assembled some days since at Harrisburg, as we learn from a contemporary, and passed a set of most unsavory resolutions at the sage of Lindenwold, one of which was in these words: Resolved, "That we recommend Martin Van Buren to remain atKinderhook,and devote his time to the cultivation of cabbages." This naughty resolve waa passed by acclamation. Red Rives.

the "democracy"' of his own Slate as the main author of the existing TarifF, and it is upon "his weH known consistency1 that his "Democratic1' constituents are of opinion that they "must chiefly rely for its , perma nency.1' Witness the following resolution adopted at the .Van Bareu and Johnson mass meeting held at Harrlsbuig a few' days ago: ' , - "Resolced, As the sense of this meeting, that the existing Tariff nothing more or less than sutikiently protects the manufacturing, mining, agricultural, laboring interests of Pennsylvania; and that for its passage we are mainly indebted to the Honorable James Buchanan, and for its permanency we must rely chiefly on his well known consistency and unchangable devotion to his native State and its vital interests." , Mormon Difficulties in Illinois. The ! Quincy Herald, of the 0th iust., contains the j following item of a bellicose character. From the recent difficulties with the Mormons, w6 should not be surprised at a serious outbreak in Northern Illinois before many months have elapsed : - . "We understand that four wagons passed through this city on Tuesday morning last, on their way to the State arsenal at Alton, for the purpose of procuring arms , and munitions of war, to be used against the Mormons. We fear much trouble will grow out of this difficulty sooner or later. We are al so miormed that the knowledge ot wliat is going on in this quarter has been brought to the notice of Gov. Ford, and we would suggest whether it is not the duty of his Excellency to protect the innocent ia their lives and property.1' .

It seems to be - fully established that American hemp, when water rotted with care, is superior to the Ilussiau. It is said to be fast superseding the foreign artrclo in the Eastern markets, and it is, beginnig to be exported to Jiuglanu v.e see it stated in Kendall's Expositor that one or more shipments have been recently made from New York, and it is also said in that paper that a mercantile houses iu St. Louis has engaged to ship direct from New Orleans to houses in London and Liverpool a thousand tons this vear. . . A FUNNY' INCIDENT. - ' At a Locofoco Convention recently held in Tippecanoe County, Indiana, a friend of Mf.'Cass moved a resolution to the following ehect: 4 . ; ' .. "Whereas General Lewis Cass emigrated to the west from New Hampshire in earIv life with his knapsack on his back, and unsheathed bis sword in repelling the Indi-J ans trom our iorthwestern irontier, auu 111 fighting against the British in the last war: Therefore, Revived, "'-That ho ought to be supported by the Democratic pnty for President of the United States." . A brother locofoco moved to amend the resolution by striking out the name of 'Cass,' ami inserting the name of 'Martin Van Buren,' which motion, after an animated discussion, piev-ailed. Some one called for the reading of th resolution as amended : whereupon, the secretary, iu a loud voice, commenced reading: "Whereas General Martin Van Bcren emigrated to the west from New Hampshire iu early life with his knapsack on his back," and unsheathed his sword in repelling the Indians and fighting against the British." By. the time the Secretary had got thus far the absurdity of the thing became so manifest that the same Locofoco who moved the amendment sprang to his feet, exclaiming. "Tut.tut, tut, Mr. Chairman, that'll never do! I move to lay the aflairou the table;" and there it was laid accordingly. Every Ciiinese family keeps a tablet on which are written the names of his father", grandfather, and great grandfather, before which incense is burnt, and the members of the family occasionally prostrate themselves. When tlie father of the family dies, his name is inserted on the table, and that of the great grand father is taken away. INDIGO IN LOUISIANA. The editor ot the Baton Rouge Advocate has been presented with a box of indigo, raised in the parish of West Baton Rouge, Louisiani. Accompanying the indigo, the editor received a communication from which we extract the following: "The article has been pronounced by competent judges as being not inferior to the best Caraccas indigo, selling at $2 per pound. lie says: 'One acre of ground, well cultivated, in West Baton Rouge, will yield from forty'to sixty pounds thai it requires only from July until October for cultivating it; that (here is not connected with it one-third of ilia expense or time that is gen erally required for the cultivation of cottou.' tic tneretore intends in future to turn his attention to th e cultivation of indigo iu preference to cotton." GRAMMAR IN THE BACK WOODS. : '- Class iu Grammar may come ou the floor. - 'Now, John, commence. 'All the world is in debt.' Parse world.' World is a general noun, common meter, objective case, and governed by Miller.' 'Very well.' Sam parse debt.' ' 'Debt is a common noun,impresssive mood and dreadful cae.' That'll do.

From the National Ifito-lliosrcor. TIIK QUESTION DLX.IDKD. '

The question of. the right of the mcinber3 of the House of Representatives, elected contrary to law, 10 hold their sems in that hody, having been tleiileJ in tlieir bivur by t!i 1'ou.s, the tiiti!.era thus eltutttl will retain their seats, the constitution and tiie law to the contrary notwithstanding. The nueBtifin, however, thongli ill us decided, is not settled, hut will he appealed from to the tribunal of tlie l'e-p!e, concerning whose judgment thereupon we cannot allow ourselves tn entertain doubt. Ol the merits and coii9lttutioii!ity of the law of the last Cdngress, which tlie ll jiie ol Representatives has ridden over and mid Jon in'o tlie dust, we have already heretofore delivered our opinion, with tlie grounds of it, aud ou that head we have nothing to add. Cut a doctrince has heen set up during the dehate on this question, anil has been m itie the ground of decision against the law, which, although not entirely new for we. have before now seen and fell it in the Government is not only contrary to the spirit of the constitution, but has been signally condemned anil reprobated by the highest judicial tribunal ol the country. We reler to the pretension set up fur the House of Representatives, under its power lojudue of the elections and returns of its own members, of a right to go beyond 1 the law under which an election has been held, and decide upon the degree in, which the law is to be ebycd or disobeyed; in other words (assuming the judicial function) to pay regard and respect to only so much of any law as suits its pleasure. This is the very power claimed for the Executive and acted upon tinder the Administration ot General Jackpoii, viz : that the President is hound t. obey the Constitution of the United States oyly as be chooses to understand it, aud to obey the laws only .as he chooses to expound them. 'As did the Executive then, so does tiie House of Representatives now, lake upon itself to act inde pendently of the law, under tiip assumption, groundless and preposterous as it is, ot a right on its part to determine, not whether Hi use re quisitioiis of law hare been complied with, but whether or not those requisition ol law are precisely conformable to tiie ("otiatiuuiou as the House chooses to cxDEKsrANn-it. .. This is NLixtFiuATioN with a witness; Nullification of a new order; ",ulliiit.ntionl by one branch of .Congtess, of a law o iss'.d liy buth brunches and approved by the President, nnd which no lefs authority than that of the House, of Representatives. Senate ami. Pretldeiit united can repeal, nor any less authority than that ol the Supreme Court ul the Uui ted Stales judicially annul. . . The powers conferred upon eseh louse of Congresp, under which this right to nitluft i,a ws is claimed, and has now been exercised that is to say , the power to "judge of the elections returns j and qyaiilHatioust tiictuotrs, must plainly was never intended to confer upon either Iioue the authority to repeal a law, .or to nullify a law, by assuming ,hat a law is void. The power conferred upjivcach House bv this decision is,ou the contrary, but a mere ministerial power, precisely the same a every slo nil' or j ude of an election has and exercises, in avw.v. Tttn r.aw tts it elands on the statute-book ; a power given 10 vcucti House 10 protect .jotell ug.-uusi .errors or frauds nnd false returns, which liirty.have been noiutuited or escaped correction by tiie returniug officers aforesaid ; and ttny exercise ot authority beyond that obvious iimit to the power ol each Iloiist is, nil arm gallon by thai House ot power not belonging to it, bung the province of another department o-( thu Government. The decision : w hich has been made by thu House will be fiibmilted ti for the present, beeatise siibtiiissio.i to it is a lesser, cvtl than immediate resistance might,prove to be. But the time will come when this decision will be revised, and reversed. It is a decision which cannot siand, because it is not only against law, but contrary to common sense.. . Tiie qtiesliou involved in this derision is so vev-!iii, that it inn v-b 4r 1 y . ie!t to the sober judgment of the body ol the People. Titer will answer, we doubt not, in very intelligible terms, through their Representatives in the next Congress, tuat they are opposed to the doctrine of Nullification iu every turn, and quite as much to- N ullificat ion of the iaws ol the United Stales by a single branch of Cong-ess as by a single State ol the Union. DISSOLUTION OF THE UNION. Mr. MuD'u (Tie's project for the dissolution of the Union aud ihe formation of three seperale con federacies, is rebuked, as it deserves t'- be, iy tne wnig prees; itiougu tne l.ocolocn oreea is remarkably silent on the subject. .Mr. .uc DutHe being a distinguished member ol the Locofoco parly, aud a connection by marriage with .Mr. Van Buren, probably induce the leaders of that party to took with charity upu Ins (reasonable suggestions or designs So strict is ihe party driil among that "servile" herd," that not even treason itself, in one of their number, can induce them to denounce the traitor. JIr. McDufKe maintain'!) that i! the Union were divided into three seperates con fed-racies, one in (he Southwest, one iu the N- th west, bmd one in the Nortlieasi ; the outh would export JIOO,000,000 worth of products and obtain in return Sl'0,000,000 ot imports. A duty of 10 per cent, would give them a revenue of C 2.000,000. Iu this way he thinks they would live with some comfort. . Now allowing this statement to be correct what, let us enquire, is the Smith to do with this $1-20.000,000 ot imports or allowing $-20,000,-0U0 to foreigners for the porfits of the carrying trade with this $100,00000 of imports? The Soutli-ia not a large consumer of luxuries, ffer slaves and poor whites require little but coarse cotton and wollens, aud the ehenpest description of groceries; while the number of her people who are iu good circumstances is vptv jMiall indeed in proportion to the mass The amount which Mr. McDnffie expects the South to consume, is one sixth of the whole amount consumed in Great Britain, whose population is 20,000, 000 four times the population of the, whole Sontii. It has always been the fashion with a certain class of Southern politicians, John Randolph among the number, to decry the Union as beneficial only to the North. The South if they are to be believed, is far 'orse off under the Constitution than she was under the colonial system. Was th e judgment of those men equal to their imagination, they would look elsewhere than to tho Union for the cans) of their dilapidation. The people of the South have with a few excepj tions neglected the great precept ot the Creator thai man shall earn hi bread bv the sweat of hts brow aim have suffered accordingly. If they will not work, how can they expect to eat? Troy Whig. OUR CHINES G RELATIONS. The English papers.by tiie most recent arrivals have been making themselves very merry at the prospect of the fiu'jrk they imagine the French and American ambassadors appointed to China will make when on their arrival among the Celestials they find that their intended work has been done by the British Plenipotentiary, inasmuch (say they) os a Supplementary Treaty has already bemi signed by Keying and Sir Henry Pottinger, securing to nil nations the same privileges in China that are accorded to tho Etiglish. The followina from the New York Commercial Advenistf presents tho matter in a different aspect. ' "We cannot help suspecting, moreover, that tho sarcastic mirth of the Times a ml other t'.ng!Uh papers is somewhat tnreed; it has very much the appearance ol coming fro in the wrong aide of the mouth. V e doubt w heiher Sir Henry I'otliiiger would have airreeil to any aueh treaty if he could have helped it; and in fact we doubt whether any such treaty "has becn'made. A more accurate description of the document would be, we suspect, one- representing it as a fonrialiiud explicit notification from the Chines to the English negosiutor, that China intended to establish the santo relations with other powers that she had established with Kngiaiid,; leaving all the detail?, conditions, &.o. lo be ar-

ranged by China with thosft ooler powers. A treaty between EnglaiiJ and (Jiiiua. providing tor the interests of France, Russia, the United State a, &c. would be a curious srt of document. As we have said, the, laughing, in tins region will not begin, probably, until Mr. Cashing wink becomes known. Ve have a BUSDlcioM that

he will vet make considetabiw of a treaty with! the Chinese. ' - - ' '- In one point the London journals misrepresent the fact. They say that the t w o A mbassadors were sent belore it was Known that they would be received. Not so. Long bet'ur3Mr. Gushing sailed itwas known that the Chinese intended to place a!l nations on the same footing with F'nglaiid. Keying had declared this in ott of hi. proclamations to the Chinese." CHARACTERS IN CONGRESS. Tiik New .Mejiber. The people of a small town Down East vere(accordiug to tlicN.

News, it seems, had came on direct fiom Washington that'the Hoc tor' had made a epeech I Ol course ihe brethren were a good deal aroused, and began to collect in groups to learn ol the matter. Some declared that the" phenomenon occured' during the debate touching General Jackson's fine ; others said not so, the Doctor had expressed his opinion in regard to the snags in the Western rivers, and tlieir bearing in a national point of view, &,. it. was certain that the ".l.G. had broken loose somewhere, but nobody knew with uuy certaioty what he had been at. .The -New York papers were full of murders and other trilling occurences, but said nothing of the speech. This was tantalizing this was. the Washington papers were scanned, but for a linio nothing could be gathered from them eyen to satisfy the public curiosity. It seemed to be a case. At last the following paragraphs were louud in the Madisoniun gtving a report of the proceedings of Monday week: Ttlr. made some remarks which were inuudihle to the reporter. 'Mr. made some remarks in relation to printing but they were not understood ' " Upon reading these siariiing paragraphs in tlie official organ ot the Government, Public Opinion thus vented itself through the vi liage newspaper: - 'Doctor, if you are Mr we shall take leave 10 say that this sort of thing won't do at nil.
