ments which have heen made IN the
New York Commercial Advertiser, sanc-
toned by evidence that cannot be con-
troverted must yovn drive this individual
from our shores.
Some weeks since the editor Of the Com
merc,al charged Thompson with having
asserted that every Shareholder in the
UnileC States ought to have his throat cut
When Thompson saw the charge he ad-
dressed letter to the editor OF the -Bost-
on Atlas, in which he denied the alega-
tions in The most solemn and empathstic
manner, on which the Commercial reiter-
ated the charge and promised TO provo it,.
The editor has fully redeemed his prom
ise in his paper OF Thursday, in publishing
a letter from A. kausman, Jr. a licen-
tiate preacher at Andover. He says that
Thompson, in conversation with him,
actualy employed the very words alleged
against him-that no made use OF naked,
unqualified, unconditional declaration,
that EVERY sLAvE-HOLDER OUGHT (or de-
srrved) TO HAVE MS THROAT CUT MIR.
Kausman enters into long account Of
the preliminary conversation in which the
words were used, a0d, fully sustains

were down upon this venerable statesman. ~
But how is the fact Why, almost every leading

il spoken of by some f,he leading Van Burente'
IN this State, in terms not The midest. Even the
New York Times, the leading Van Buren paper
in New York, while he rejoices at the election O.
Mr.. Pearce, gives Mr.. Adams a severe lashing fol
his eccentricty. Then comes the Richmond En-.

Poiotoss. - Very erroneous directions
relative to the gathering and securing po-
tatoes have been given by agricultural
writer's Of authority. Some aovise to dry
them in the sun, others say that the sun
should never shine on potatoes. Judge
Buel tells US not only that potatoes should
never be exposed to sunshine, but should
be housed with the dirt that adheres 10
them and that it is even beneficial to
add more dirt to potatoes In the bin OF
cask, to exclude external air as much as
possible. Their surface should be kept
moist, and the atmosphere as near as cau
be to the freezing point.

Enterprise. ship John N. Gosler,
which sa;ed from this port yesterday for
Canton, affords one Of The most striking
evidences of what can be done in a hun
dred days, by the enterprise of merchants
and ship builders. She is an elegant ves-
sci OF 500 tons burthen. Her keel was
laid on the first of July last, and she was
launched on the 18th of September, hav-
ing been completed in fifty seven working
days.-John McCrea, Esq the merchant

Health Of our city.-We have had sever-
al cases Of yellow fever so far although
in but few instances they have tsrminat-
ed fatally. We believe that the lateness
OF the season will prevent the occurrence
gilmore cases and that our citizens may
congratulate them selves upon the excel
lent health which has attended our CITY
the past summer. The weather has be-
come quite cold in the mornings and even
lngs, and we should presume that stran-
gers and absentees nigh, return with per-
feet safety by the middle of October.
CoTToN cRoPs.-We have had an on
portunity Of conversing with a merchant
of our city, recently from Mississippi, and
he informs us that we may rely upon a
full crop from that state-he thinks there
will be but little diEinution in the amount
Of cotton received this year from that state
in comparison with receipts flast season.

gain to the Wings, but not enough to

Taking time by the Forelock. The so;-
disam state Of Michigan has already held
its first annual election, and has chosen
young Mr.. Stephens +. Mason its first
governor, with but little opposition. 1t is
asserted that it has already been ascer-
tanned by means of an accurate poll list,
that majority Of the votes taken n IN De.
troit, were those Of unnaturalized foreign
ers. Howsver,we apprehend MIR nj. is not
quite governor yet. 1t is yet to be de-
termlned whether Michigan comes into
the Union, with such a constitution as tho
radicals have made for it. IL the senate
does It's duty. the territory will be compell-
ed to tarry at Jerico another year-and
make its constitution over again.

'vHH ooNsTITUTIoMALIsT

The experience sfevery day teaches US the want
of Constitution. The vagueness and entire un-
certainty, which attend the construction ofthe pow
thority, render the arguments which have hereto
fore been advanced in favor Of a written Consti-
tuition, fearully true. The recent election Of State
Officers affords a most striking instance Of our
want Of a Constitution, and the great danger to
which we are constantly exposed, while we are
without one. Take, for example, the question
which was started in Grand Committee at the re-
cent session OF the Assembly, whether the old Sen
ato have right to vote on any question touching
the election had they persisted in voting, the
House would have undoubtedly moved of to their
room, and what the consequences would have been,
is altogether beyond our power to say;-ths ques-
ton would undoubtedly have been decided on po-
Ii ica! grounds, had it been put. Now the old
Senate either had right to vote in such cases, or
the, had not, and shall matter so important, be
thus left TO the caprice of that political party which
may chance to be in power A matter SO inn
por.ant to tho liberties Of the people, should never
be leii to be decided in such a manner, as may
happen to suit the views interests Of a partic-
ular party. For the want Of something definite
upon this point, consequences might have result
ed which would have been Of such u character, as
bu, few of US, would ever hopeto see.
Again take the exisency that would have arisen
had two Of the Senate elect declined their offices ;
-what would have been done in this case again
il would have been left to the decision Of party
Ale the Peocle of this State ready to rest their
dearest liberties, in the hands Of party, TO be US
ed in such manner that party which hap
pens to be in the majority sees fit to use them .
No, they have ever been too Jealous OF their rights
thus to banter with them. 1t US unnecessary to
pursue this subject further at present. Let every
one think upon this matter, and ask himself the
question Has not the time arrived when the lib
critics of the people require that the powers Of the
State Government should be more explicitly enunl-
Grated and defined? Rccolect that this is but one
of the many arguments in favor of w'iltem Con-
stituii0n.
