Good Advice. Horace Grcely in hit Tribune of the lOti , gives tome irood advice to the Whigs, as to the manner of con

ducting the Presidential canvass, which it would be well enough for oar young Wkiggies, who mak speecbs and I scribble for the Journal, to read and consider. The following pointed extract we particularly refer to their at. tention: A a politician and a candidate, Gen. Pierce is one of tne kind to whom our opposition is a labor of love; but is a private citizen, we have nothing to say of him. And wc respectfully request all correspondents not to ay any thing for our columns at. out his fainting, falling Irom his horse, or anything implying disparagement of nis personal character or bis military exploits. With that sort of warfare we desire to have no connection; ti-d we know that it is disagreeable to Q:n. Scott, between whom and Gen. Pierce the utmost personal cor diaiitv exists. Mr. Webster. The reception of Mr. Webster at Boston on the 9th inst., was a most brilliant affair. A sketch of his speech appears 'n the New York Tiibune of the 10th. The reporter says: "There is- no longer any doubt that Mr. Webster will be run as an independent candidate for the Presidency ." He makes no allusion to Gen. 30011 or tn Presidency. The following sentence from his speech Is significant of Iiis feelings j f ought, perhaps, to express mv particular thanks ti the military, who made so fine a display. You all mm - know, gentlemen, thai it is not mv fortone to be a sue cesMul military man. Great laughter. I am nc'iing renewed laughter nothing but a bard-working, painsraking. drudging civilian, giving my life, and health and strength to the maintenance of the Constitution, and the upholding, to the best of my ability, under the providence of God, the liberties of my country."

I den.-v mnv of ml hh have never len tf,.r

merged in other political divisions. The evident intent est of the Journal article is to convey the impression that the Federalists of the days of Washington, and those or the present day are identical in principle. This is so transparent that we do not feel called upon to expose it. When we speak of Federalists, in connection with the Whig party, we are to be understood as meaning the disciples of tbe Hartford school. Distrustino the capacity of the people to govern tiiemseives, they desired a strong governmenta nearer approximation to tbe British oonstitation. They set forth their princi- j pies iu a series of resolutions. The pill was too bitter They gilded it. True to the instincts of their lineal descendants, the present Whig party, they appropriated to themselves the popular name, Federalist. But the people soon learned to discriminate between the genuine and the counterfeit. In consequence of the Hartford Federalists burning blue lights, as a signal to the British to enable them to evade the embargo, they were soon called, in derision, "Blua Light Federalists." To distinguish themselves from the masses, and as insignia of their superior intelligence, the Hartford Federalists wore klaikcockadsi. Heute they were called "Black Cockade Federalists' And when we use tbe term Federalist iu a partisan sense, we mean, unless otherwiso explicit)stated, the "Blue Light Black Cockade F-nJeralists." How do you like that name, Bro. Defreest We are prepared to prove tnat the party to which vou now belong, is notbißg more than this f ederal party fused into Native Americanism, and a few other isms. depending entirely upon locality, and widely dissimilar in different latitudes. The Blue Light Federalists were in favor of the supreraacy of thew over the many. So are the Whigs of the present day. "Take care of the rich and they will take care of the poor-' i, a fundamental maxim of each They legislate for the exclusive benefit of ca pita!.

Mr. Webster, the great Whig expounder, openly opposed the war of 1312, and himself burned blue lights. Tho New England Whigs even now boldly proclaim their affinity to Federalism. J. B. Ingersoll, whom the Journal accuses of Federalism. is a bitter Whig.

The Journal says that the eleatlon of Mr. Adams r,ved ,rom Mexico 'o the chairman, developing the na- ,. . , . . . . , . . . ture and history of the Hargous claim, which amounted "gave great dissatisfaction to the tr.ends ol tke opposing (0 $600 000( BnJd which was a pait!.

The "coalition" was formed is opposition to Mr. Adams, you say. Was he a Whig? The "Old Man Eloquent," whose voice is cow busbsd in the stillness of the grave openly avowed himself a Federalist and a Whig.

They have been advooated by leading Whigs. The Journal, then, admits that these are all reiterated in the platform. Good. So be it. The Journal says that on.? of the chief differences between the parties Is as to the policy "to be pursued toward foreigners." That's true. The Whig party In lSlt, were ia favor of servilely cowering before the British lion, and cowardly permitting onr citizens to be "impressed." Gen. Jackson, the leader of Democracy, I . - ' ' .

Botts letter in the recent Federal Convention, not to say anything about the ''No-party" race of 1848?

The Journal says it is a "lie" that Germans and Irish have been ridiculed because thev were Democrats. 1844 the Whigs of Louisville forcibly drove Germans and Irish away from the polls simply because they were Clark, the Mayor of New York, a Whig, used this lan- j guage in his message to the Council: ' It is my intention The Troy Whig says, 'The children of bigoted Catho-1 lie Ireland, like the fro?s that wert Sent as a plague j against Pharaoh, have come into our nAttse$, bed-oham-1 bers, ovens, and knead-troughs.

The Journal says that Pierce conldn't get n majority of bis own township to vote with him in lavorof strikingout the test clause from the New Hampshire Comstitution. The reason is plain. A majority of that township were I Whigs. Neither was Daniii O'Connell successful. His 1 patriot heart burst in despair. The brave Meagher and . his gallant associates failed.

E7"It will be seen by reference to oar telegraphi column of yesterday, that G. C. Washigton, the nomi nee of the Native American Convention for Vice President, declines the proffered honor and recommends Scot and Graham. This is precisely what was to be expected. The whole Convention was a sham, intended t benefit Scott; ti was a Whig trick. They did not dare t nominate Scott directly, because that might lose him tin foreign vote. But they nominate candidates, who wil not accept, and who are expected to decline and lndors' Scott and Graham, and recommend the natives to vot for them. By this means they are to obtain the nativ. vote, whilst Scott by bis letters and speeches is sti.l t. blarney the Irish and soft sodder the Germans. A deej game. Time will tell whether it oan win. A Just Rebake.

Pierce for fainting upon the battlefield. "This is disgraceful. The sooner the party whicl claims 'all the decency' repudiates such blackiriiardism the better for their cause. We insist that both Scott unPierce are brave and gallant men; and the paltry poli tician who would attribute a feint' to Frank Pierce, it order to avoid danger, it a poltroon 'whom it were gros flattery to call a oouiord.' Betting. The Whigs are now advising their friends, every where, not to bet on Scott's election. Thev think it U , ,,ot saf. to Det because it ij wrong to bet. This is gooc morals, and we are glad to see it. In 1S40, '44, and '48, it was their strongest reason in favor of their candidates. Every argument from a Democrat was mo with a proposal to bet. Now, they say betting is a violation of the lsw. It is wrong, morally wrong, snd men ought not to bet. We think it is wrong to bet. and would be especially foolish in Whigs to oet on Gen. Scott, because they would be certain to lose. Senator. We bsve been requested to stste that Thomas Johnson, whose name has been mentioned in connection will the office of Senator for Marion county, will not be s candidate, should Capt.
