Our Democratic friends, who claim so much wisdom snd ssgscity in the administration of public affairs, would do well to consider, ponder, and reflect a little on the estimates of Secretary Walker, daring Polk's Administration.

Of the passage of the River and Harbor bilt. by the recent Congress, the Baltimore Patriot very appropriately says: "The passsge of the River and Harbor bill is one of the acta which specially deserves notice.— It is significsnt, too—passed as it was, by a Congress where the majority of the members of both Houses arc nominally commit* ted to the support of the election of General Pierce to the Presidency. We s*y it is significant, because Gen. P. when in Congress, was perverse in his opposition to the principles involved in the bill. How then comes it thst his supporters vote for it now! Or courte it is thst Westmi States, whose vital interests were st stake in the bill, will thus be induced to forget Gen. Pierce's opposition to it, snd to vote for him for Presiident, because some of his friends in Congress supported it! Without the vote of these State, be stands no chance of election. This his friends in Congress know, or, of course, they would not have voted for the bill. But the Western States will rather, ws suspect, commit their interests to the protection of man who is known, as Gen. Scott is, to be in favor of the improvement of their rivers by the general government, titan to submit them to the caprice of one who, like Gen. Pierce is pledged by hia own words, sgsinst such improvements."

We commend the Democracy for their refusal for where is the use of knowing" how much iron, and lead, and ooal, lies tarted bemath the soil of the 8tat*s while th* principles* of fm fr*k advocatedbT Oovtmer Wright, induce* our people to to Buhspe for tMr iron, or manufapit here, by paying the workmen a shU~ Ussy per day, and meat for dinner once a month. We know Indiaoa has the ere to manufacture iron for the world, and yet the world sends it to us. What use, then, is there for a geological survey, at a cost of perhaps #50,000, and a term of three or four year*! But this recommendation is alone worthy the sagacity of Governor Wright, who would have Indiana do what the General Government alone can do—protect the industry of the country, and bring the manufacturer alongside of the producer. juute ",v% -uul1of the Genera I Government in reference to making appropriations for internal improvements are referred to die following extract from one of General Jackson's Veto Messages "In the administration of Mr. Jefferson we hsve two examples of the exercise of the right of appropriation, which, in the con* siderations that led to their adoption, and in their effects upon the public mind, have bad a greater agency in marking the character of the power than any subsequent events allude to the payment of fifteen millions of dollars for the purchsse cf Louisiana, and to the original appropriation for the construction of the Cumberland road the latter act deriving much weight from the acquiesence ami approbation of three of the most powerful of the original members of the confederacy, expressed through their respective legislatures. Although the circumstances of the latter case may be such as to deprive so much of it as relates to the actual construction of the road of the force of an obli gatory exposition of the constitution, it must nevertheless be admitted that so fsr as the mere appropriation of meney is concerned, they present the principle in its.most imposing aspect No less than twenty-three different laws have been passed through all the forms of the constitution, appropriating upwards of two millions and a half of dollars out of the national treasury in support of that improvement, with the approbation of every President of the United States, including my predecessor, since its commencement.

Some of the Democratic papers are ex ultinj over the fact that Parson Brownlow, of Tennessee, will not support Scott. The following article from his paper will show what kind of a Whig he is, and what he thinks of General Pierce. The article is from Brownlow's paper of July 31:

Pierce na Original Federalist* We have many objections to Pierce, so many, that we cannot and will not vote for him But there is one bright spot in his history, and with us, it is the best trait in hia chaur*cler—-he was once An AfTama maa. and used bis influence against Jackson, and the Democracy of 1836. He was against Jackson at the time he first run for President and then we were with him. He joined the fortunes of Jackson, when he found he was to be successful, snd abandoned the Federal ranks of John Quincy Adams, and thir we separated from General Pierce.— We were then a Federal Adams Whig, and we are still one, and glory in our politics, as being the principles of the purest party that ever existed in this country. us-5

Some of our Democratic leader! "rhly think it strange that we should ssy Mr. Pierce had once been a Federalist. It is so, and cannot be successfully Controverted.— Hon. Isaac Hill, who for a quarter of a century, was the bead and fr nt of Democracy in New Hampshire, is the authority. Mr. Hill besides serving in Congress, was for years the able editor of the "New Hampshire Patriot," the organ of Jacksonian Democracy in the Granite State. In 1842, Mr. Hill has this editorial notice of Mr. Pierce.

Frsnk Pierce commenced law business aobut the year 1836 and boarded with bis father ia Hillsborough. In that year he made the old gentleman so far non-commit-tal that his name was then used as discountenancing the senior editor of the Patrtot in his opposition to John Q. Adams he helped and assisted in the Federal lawyers of that day to-call out the strength of his father's name against Andrew Jackson* and it was not until the close of the year 1837 that the sterling old patriot broke away from the pernicious influence of his DSOBKUUTE son.

DeathofE.W.Mcttatsghey. By reference to telegraph it will be seen that a late arrival from California brings the news of the death of Hon. E. W. Mo* Gaughey, on his way to California. Mr. McGaugUey was formerly member of Congress from this District, and recently started for California, with a view of making that country Ms future abode.

The appointment of Samuel D. Hubbard as Postmaster General, says the telegraph from Washington, gives the grdMeet satisfaction Is the Scott Whigs, and is intended *sen earnest of the President's seal for the Scott Ticket.

Fortunately this important measure has been adopted before any contingency of circumstances could have periled its full consumatioq by any danger of an Executive veto. If tne New Hampshire candidate for the Presidency were now occupying the seat in which his supporters wish to place him, but to which, we hope, the general voice of the people will never call him, the passage of this improvement bill through both Houses of Congress would afford no assurance whatever of its beiug confirmed ss a law.

Ti® LOCK OF Ma. HOBBS IN ENGLAND^—The London correspondent of the Philadelphia American states thst Branah'8 celebrated prize lock has been withdrawn from public view It will be remembered that Mr. Hobbs succeeded in picking this lock, snd that he ilceived a rewsrd of two hundred gunfas for his skill. The Messrs. Bramak made some alterations and improvements in the lock, and again plac ed ft in the window in Piccadilly, with the original offer of the reward nppended to it It remained in their window a few days, when a report reached the Messrs. Bramah that Mr. Hobbs intended to try his luck a second time. The \ock was immediately removed, and has not since been seen. Tho writer adds: "Hobbs' patent American lock is being manufactured at Birmingham, Sheffield, Wolverhampton, and in London, in large numbers, and of all sizes, and at prices ranging from six shillings to fifty pounds esch. In a few days the office of "Hobbs' Americsn Lock Company" will be opened in Cheapside for the sale of these Americsn locks. The Bank-lock, price fifty pounds, hss already been placed on the vaults of the Bank of England, the East India Company, and several private banking et' tablishments in the city."

BREAKING OXEN.—That well-ttnown and excellent practicsl farmer, Mr. Buckminster, editor of the Maesachu setts Farmer,rec ommends the following method of breaking oxen:

Ithen, )'i»« .first piit a yoke on your two years old steers, coax them with an apple or an ear of soft corn, (soft corn will be allowed in this case.) Then they will hold up their heads and be glad to follow you. No whip will be needed at the first yoking. Let the yoke and the soft corn be associated in their minds, and they will never be shy of the yoke but if you make use of force alone, they will hold down their head to keep them out of the way of blows. After you have taught them to follow you round in the yoke, and hat it will not injure them to carry St, you can hitch them on before the older ox^n, and make them take the lead. The driver should go beside them occasionally, with a switch stick, or light and short whip but he will not have~anjr need to beat them, except in extrema cases.**

AMERICAN WINE.— The cultivation of the grspe st the West, chiefly in Ohio, is becoming each year a more importsnt branch of domestic industry.— There are about 1.200 seres of grspes in cultivation .in the vicinity of Cincinnati, and every year adds to the quanti ty of bearing vines, snd to the number of persons engaged in the business. Ac cording to Cist Advertiser, the sggregate annual manufacture of first quality wine in that State may be put down at 330,000 bottles, of which 180.000 is spsrkling Cstawba. One of the larg est manufacturers, who has bean for soma years engsged in Europe in man ufscturing wine, pronounces the Cstsw ba grape a finer basis for light wine than any in Germany or Prance. One firm in Cincinnati will put up this season 30,000 bottles another, 105.000i The supply of native wines, greatly as it is on the increase, ti said to be hardly equal to tha Increasing demand

Standing one morning recently in front of the hotel at which he was sojourning at Bsltimora, he was accosted by a half starved and pitiable looking negro whom he presently recognised as the fugitiva from his estita. Asking him whst he wanted, he stated that he had been refiding in CafMda, and after having suffered innumerable hardships, he had determined to retrace his steps and return to tha hotnah* had so abruptly quitted, and hsd gone so far when providentially ba found his master, and now entreated him to take him back with him.
