Seventh District. Hon. E. W. McGaughey, the sterling and independ. ent Whig representative from the seventh district, we are rejoiced to learn, was, on the 11th inst., aominated by the Whig convention at Rockville for reflection to Congress. Mr. McGaughey is cne of the roost sterling Whigs in the State. Ho voted for the Compromise measures of the late session, and is at true at steel on all the other important and leading measures of Whig policy, which tends to the prosperity of the people and the preservation of the Union. He will be elected Bedford Standard.
Mr. McGaughey did not vote for all the compromise measures. He voted against the Texas boundary bill, which was the first and most important feature in the series of measures; and without iu adoption none of tho subsequent bills would have been passed. It settled tb threatened conflict between the United States and Texas,
and provided .for the organization of the Territory of

On the trial it was contended that the description was incorrect, and pieces of bright, polished copper were produced, which convinced the Commissioner that there was a slight variation in the description, and thereupon he discharged the negro. The supremacy of law was thus vindicated.
