country, for miles round, was Illuminated
on Sunday night, by fires being lit on the
tops of the surrounding eminences, and it
was but too apparent that an extensive
concentration of the people was resolved
upon. In pursuance of previous arrange
ment, troop of the 7th Dragon Guards,
couple of companies of the 29th In
fantry, and large body of police-the
latter commanded by Capt. Nang le--all
under the direction Of Captain Hoare,
r. NJ, and Marshal Cummins, Esq. ma
gistrates, marched to the place where the
process of serving notices was 70 pc gone
through. They were scarcely arrived
when the country people, to the bumber
of several thousands, unawed by the large
military and police forces drawn up, gave
the most determined indication Of resis-
lance. II has been stated TO Us, that the
population agreed amongst themselves,
come what may, to prevent { hes being
raised, and in this spirit actui ply threw
stones at the forces, some of which Sc,
verely injured the military. After re-
peated circumstances, as ouTinformant
tells US, upon the part of the nj gistrates,
the latter gave the word fire: and accor-
dinghy the entire party discharged their
arms, hut without effect, the people pros
tratng themselves in the fields, and shel
tering themselves behind bitches. ~
In the conflict soldier, named Dryer,
of the 29th, was killed by gun shot
fired, not, as has been stated, by the PEG
pie, but by one of the police. who, if we
be rightly informed, in taking aim at
man who had particularly distinguished
himself, in his awkwardness, shot the SOL
der. Mr.. Cummins has been injured in
several parts of the body, particularly one
of his legs by pitchfork, and other Sc
we're Commissions have beeninhicted.-The
death of the soldier seemed the signal to
cease hostilities; but the country people
gave no manifestation of yielding; on the
contrary they shouted and de6ed, and in
this state the troops were drawn off.
Meantime, the whole country is up, and
the utmost alarm prevails, large reinforce
ment of troops have been sent off to day,
and every precaution which such la
mentable, and no less alarming state of
things suggested, has been adopted.
An investigation was to have been
held to day; and we have despatched a
reporter to the scene, and shall, probably,
give further particulars in second ed-
tion.-C Cork Rep.

so much money, SO many books, so expen

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM
MEXICO.

We are indebted to a friend for We.
ra Cruz papers to the 18th June in
elusive, received by an arrival at New
Orleans. They bring intelligence of a
formidable attempt to revolutionise the gov-
eminent, which so far succeeded that
President Santa Anna was taken prison
er, though he afterwards effected his es.
cape, and made good his retreat to Pue-
bla, where he arrived on the nightof the
i2th-l3th.
1t appears that revolutionary party
was first organized at or near Morela,
two or three hundred miles west of the
capital, the object of which was to pre-
vent encroachments upon the Catholic
religion. Santa Anna took body OF
troops and marched against them; but
when they arrived near the scene of the
insurrection, they all mutinicd under the
direction of Gen. Arista, made Santa
Anna prisoner, and put him in conhne-
ment. He afterwards escaped to Pue-
bla. The result will be, from all we
can gather, that Santa Anna will regain
his authority.

THE PRESIDENCY.

A strong disposition to commence a.
gitating the presidential election of 1886
is evinced in many parts of the country,
and especially Pennsylvania and Ohio.
1t is evident that the most urgent for
this agitation propose to bring the name
of Judge Mclean before the public
Their object is plain enough: to preoc-
cupy the ground in his behalf. The
prudence and discretion of this move
ment are not very clear to my under
standing.
SIN the years 1921 & '23, a similar
Impotence pervaded the friends of Mr..
Crawford, Mr.. Clay and Mr.. Calhoun.
The strifes then engendered have not
yet subsidized. Their consequences up
on the country, and upon the usefulness
of the eminent men to whom they rela-
ted, are known to us all, and | should
think addressed themselves forcibly to
such as are anxious to bring out a can
didate for the first time. This pre-oc-
cupation of the ground, is much, if it
can be obtained by tolerably general
consent of these who are expected to
sustain the occupant: but it Is nothing
Iif he is jostled forward by the jockey
ship of his particular friends only.
At present there are five individuals
who enjoy each portion of the public
favor for president in 1886. First, Mar
tin Van Buren,, the candidate of the
present administration, and par excellence
of the democratic party, and who, from
these aids unites more voices in his sup
port than any other single candidate
Secondly, Henry Clay, to whom many
of his old friends cling with undated
regard, and toward whom the south be
gins to look with some good will. Third,
John &. Calhoun, who is not yet Aaron
Blurred, who has friends every where,
and who fills the first place in the hearts
of all state rights men. Fourth, Judge
Mclean, strong in Pennsylvania and in
Ohio, and with good pretensions else
where. Fifth, Daniel Webster, anx-
iously wished for by thousands, in eve
ry section of the Union, especially in
the east, the west, and the middle states.
Nothing is clearer to my mind than
that if any two of the last four named
enter the lists with Martin Van Buren,,
he is elected. To defeat him it will
be necessary for those who are opposed
to him to act in concert; should surren-
der all rivalries and jealousies and unite
heart and hand in the same purpose
This can only be brought about by mu-
tual consultation and concession; and
the practicability of these must not be
obstructed by single movements and
prematurely putting forth the candidate
whom some prefer. To the agitators in
behalf of Judge Mclean and Mr.. Web

EDUCATION IN THE WEST.

The Importance of early and thorough
education is, in general terms, admitted
by all. No man in our day has the har
dihood to contend for general ignorance
or to denounce learning as dangerous and
arstoCratic; and yet, there does not seem
to be practical conviction of the abso
lutte necessity of public provision for the
suitable instruction of the young. Uni,
versities are condemned by many as mac
cessible to the poor, and schools are sou't
only for the first rudments Of knowledge.
There is, however, after all, much reason
to congratulate the people of the west,
IN the present infant state of society, on
the existence of institutions so we'll adap-
ted to the diffusion of knowledge and to
the rearing up of respectable, if not thor.
ough and profound scholars, in all the
.callings and stations in life. Few, very
few, are now to be found who cannot at
least read and write-and many, even
among the poor and laboring classes, are
well instructed in most important and es.
sential branches Of knowledge. But it
is still common and too prevalent error
to maintain, that education is unnecessa.
ny for the farmer and mechanic, that very
little, if any, acquaintance with books is
required for such as are destined to live
chiefly by manual labor, and that profes.
sional men only need the aid of early
classical and liberal education. 1t would
certainly be much better for society il
the children OF all classes, without regard
to their future pursuits and distinction.
were thoroughly and carefully taught not
only reading, writing, and the first rules
of arithmetic, but grammar, geography,
surveying, some history, the fundamental
principles of astronomy, ands whenever
possible, the ancient languages, and some
of the most useful sciences, such as chem.
istry, geology, &c.
The prejudices against universities are,
we hope, fast wearing away. The peo-
pie begin to see, that the only way to af-
ford an opportunity TO all classes to enjoy
the benefit of liberal education, is by
having well endowed, and well supported
seminaries at home, so as to diffuse a.
mong the middle and poorer ranks
of society those advantages which
would otherwise be confined to the rich
who could go abroad for them. But
there is danger of attempting to make COL
leges and universities too numerous, and
thus to prevent the adequate support of

JOHN McLEAN-Somef fifty years ago,
a poor Irishman emigrated to this coun-
try and settled in the county of Middle
sex, in this state, in little shantee, to
which was attached some half dozen
acres Of land; whilst located there, he
became the father of several children,
and amongst the rest, Of the present
John Mclean, now one of the judges OF
the supreme court of the United States.
Pressed by poverty and an increasing
family, the old man sold off his little
property, and with a yoke of oxen and
cart, transported his all over the Ale
ghany, and settled in the state of Ohio,
where by dint of industry, economy and
good luck, he was enabled to rear a
large family, and to give them such an
education as not only to render them
respectable, but to enable several of the
sons to become eminent men. John be-
ing the oldest, received a very good but
not ID classical education. After which,
by teaching school, living with prudence
and economy, he was enabled 10 ac-
quire his profession (the law.) He soon
become eminent in his vicinity, ard du-
ring the late war, was first elected a
member of congress. He took an ac-
tive part in supporting the war meas
ures, and Mr.. Madison's administration
generally. During the succeeding ad-
ministration Of Mr.. Monroe, he was ap-
pointed post master general, an office for
which he seems to have been peculiarly
fitted. In this department he soon re-
duced confusion into order. Mr.. Nc
Lean continued post master general till

is said, he was unwillingly placed on the
bench of the supreme cout of the Uni

IRON HOIISES

The new process for smelling iron by raw
coal aud hot air blast, is producing great
change in iron trade; and it is anticipated
by good judges, that no long period will
eapse before cast iron Of the quality known
as Mol, will be manufactured at the cost O
about 40s. or ass. the ton. When this takes
place generally, it must inevitably produce
an effect which will pervade almost every
condition of society. Rich and poor will, by
degrees, find themselves inclosed in iron
cages; and fir joists, and slate roofs, will be-
come things to be alluded to as betokening
something venerable from antiquity. The
introduction Of iron into building operations
will, no doubt, spread rapidly, as the price of
cast iron falls; and, if unsklfuly done at
the outset, we may have a number of i'm
perlshabe monuments Of bad taste wherever
we 60. 1t is, therefore, of Importance that
good examples should be given in time, and
that architects should be prepared for the
change, SO as not to leave the matter to the
caprice or taste of the workmen of the foun-
deres.-Loudon's Encyclopedia Of Arch,-

jster, would say in all good feeling, be-
ware that you do not pull down those
you would build up. Both are yet in
the green tree of life, and in the vigor
of public usefulness. Nothing is so like
ly to scar and blast both as to stand be-
fore the country defeated candidates for
the presidency. The matter should be
well considered and all mining and coun.
termining avoided. Let the last ten
years of Crawford, Calhoun and Clay be
borne in fresh recollection, and it cannot
fail to impress serious admonition upon
all who wish well of the country aud
hold in proper estimation the best of its

"Well, declare Mr.. w. you stick to

could not mend it much by repeating il
again."
"Well, sir, acknowledge that an
