IRA WING FESTIVAL, in honor of the
ate anti-Van Buren, triumph in Mary
Ia land is 10 take place in the city Of Bal
.;more on the 18th of next month.
NJ we understand from the Baltimore
Gazette, that there are counterfeit $50
notes of the North Western Bank of Vir-
einia, in Wheeling, in circulation. One
was stopped in that city, which had been
altered from S5-it was dated March
9th, 1881, No. 1874. letter G. payable to
#. List, and wasaiNmsily altered.

gTIt is now supposed that CAss will
receive the mission to England and Polk
will succeed him as Secretary of War.
E From intelligence on the oppo-
site page, we think that the Abolition
excitement ought now to cease in the
South, and the whole matter left to our
eastern brethren. They have given full
evidence in Boston and Utica, that it is
without resting place. There have
been bad men in all ages, and in all coun-
tries; and we have no reason to suppose,
that we are not to be troubled at times
by their pernicious Vaccinations in some
way. The love of the Union, however,
in the East, in the West, in the South,
by vast majority Of the people, will, we
are now convinced,put down all attempts
to dissolve it promptly, and without eth.
er Congressional, or state legislation.
We feared the result for some time but
the late doings at Utica and Boston have
cleared up those doubts and We hope,
that similar commixed species of fana-
tieism, political and religious, will not a.
gain disturb the tranquility Of the nation
for ages to come.

tanned this season l43 bushels Of clover

next Legislature praying the incorpora.
ton Of a company, to construct Rail-
Road from Lynchburg to the Tennessee
line. to connect with the great thorough
fare from Boston to New Orleans.
IT Some of the Van Buren, presses seem
very desirous to charge upon the Adolf
tionists that they are all Wings I'VE wish
this were true ; for give US the vote OF
the Abolitionists of New York, and Van
Buren, himself would be MuHLENBuRGEp
in his own state.
o. 1t seems from the Pennsylva.
nian that fatal duel took place lately at
Palermo, between two officers attached
10 the United States ship Delaware. in
which it is rumored that Lieutenant Da-
vid R. Stewart, of Maryland, was NOR.
tally wounded, and soon after expired,
and that Lieut.. Thomas Turner, of Fau-
quier county, Virginia, was wounded.
GT In our paper to-day will be found
some gratifying intelligence from Ten
nessee. How disgusting must have been
the VIEW ofthree "Globes" ranked by
Gen. Jackson, and laid on the tables of
the members the Tennessee Legisla-
ture, the first day of the session and
how pleasing it must be to every truly
republican citizen in the Union, that such
an attempt to influence that body was
spurned by every member. and the result,
the next day the election ofJudge White
to the Senate of the u. States by an u
n~-Gmous vote. Even Jackson himself
has lost his influence in that state, how
then stands Van Burens
In the same body too. an attempt was
made to instruct the Senators to vote for
Benton's sPoNGING resolutions but was
voted down instanter-will not our Leg
islature do the same thing Vote down
at once any attempt thus to encourage
