Our opponents are already at variance among
themselves. The Richmond Wing is out upon the
party at the North, for sustaining Mr. Webster, and
declares that his defeat is certain and that of the
wings equally so, unless he is withdrawn from the
the field. 1t represents his old federal principles
and supposed participation in the Hartford Conven-
ton, the reasons why his nomination is unaccept
able to the party at the South and West, and de-
clares that scarcely State will be found to
operate with Massachusetts in his support.
If then by the admission of the wings themselves
Mr.. Webster has no chance of success, are the
votes of the north to be cast finally for Mr..
White Is lie the candidate to be pre-
ferred by us to Mr. Van Buren3 Are we at
last to throw ourselves into the hands of the Null
l6ers and to surrender 10 them all that is dear to
the true friends of the Union
With the wings of the North and with their cam
didate, the friends of White have political SYM
pathy. There are no general principles which bind
them together. The northern Wings 90 for their
own local, sectional and selfish polcy-those of the
South are pursuing the narrow and illib-
eral course The only tie which holds them togeh-
er, is an uncompromising and bitter hostility to-
wards those who now administer the government.
That hostility has been, and still is, fomcnted and
fostered by ambitious men, who have in past times
exercised high control in public affairs, and who
have lost the confidence of the people, but not their
love of power.
On the other hand, the party which sustains the
administration is united by regard for those great
republican principles, which guided the public ca
reer of Jefferson and his immediate successors and
which have far influenced that of the present Ex-
exutive They are not Northern or Southern prin-
cples, sectional or local but extend from end to
the other of this vast Republic, and embrace in
their operation the interests of all the States. Is il
wonderful then, that while the opposition has beer
driven to assume a thousand names, and to take Sc
many shapes and combinations, the democratic par.
ty has increased in numbers and in vigor through
out the Union, and is full of the assur-
that i'll the approaching struggle, theirs will be
the victory.

failed, and they are now endeavoring to bring the
democratic institutions ofthe country into contempt,

ANTIMASONS OF PENNSYLVANIA

The PHsbug (Penn.) Cazeiie-an Anti
masonic journal-of Saturday last. states its
conviction that the Antilnasons of Pennsyl-
vania will not give their support to either
White or Van Buren,; and asks whom they
should sustain? 1t then touches on the claims
of Mr.. John Quincy Adams, and General
Harrison. The friends of General Harrison
are said to be jealous in his support, but they
have not recently increased in strength or
spirit. "Be that as it may, however" the
Gazette continues, "the letter recently pub
lshed in the Puisbug Times, we presume
from the manner of its publication, will cut
off Gen. II. from all hope of support by Penn
sylvania Anlimasons. Its publication per-
Joiim and hterd,im, with photographed er-
rors, shows that he is not in favor" The
nomination of Mr.. Adams is said to have
been suggested, but not seriously.
With regard to General Harrison, there
has been as yet no sufficient development of
his strength. If he fail to carry Ohio, and
there is some reason to fear that this may be
the case, VIC presume that he will be with
drawn that the Wings of the West,
with the Wings and Antimasons Of Pennsyl-
vana, will rally about the standard of Mr..
Webster. In reference to the claims of Mr.
Webster, The Gazette above quoted observes;
"liis fitness and qualifications for the office
are so manifest, that to attempt to point them
out would be work of supererogation, only
surpassed in eXtrayagance by attempting to
prove that the sun shone at midday"

additional thermometer S3. For kitchens
where wood is burned, for nurseries, for work
shops where combustiblc materials are used,
for factories, prisons, asylums and other insti-
tutions where many lives are at stake, this
instrument is invaluable. In shops, stores and
printing Offices where nobody sleeps, they
could easily be made to communicate with
the house Of neighbour, which would be of
service to him, in giving him timely notice of

TRIAL FOR PIRACY.-On Friday John Bat
tiste, mate of the brig America, of New Bed
ford, was arraigned in the circuit court of tho
United States, at Boston, before Judge Story
and Davis, on the capital charge Of having
beer engaged IN the slave trade on the coast
Of Africa. The Commercial Gazette says,
that the evidence did not appear to be very
strong against the prisoner. The testimony
having been closed, the case was argued on
Saturday by the district attorney for the gov
ernmcnt, and the hon. Daniel Webster for
the prisoner.
The jury on Saturday returned verdict of
not gully.

SOUTH KINGSTON ELECTION.

The strong fortress of Toryism in the
County of Washington has fallen. An cleo
ton was holden in the great central agricul-
tural town OF South Kingston, on Wednes-
day the 2lst. to elect Representative in the
place of the Hon. ELISHA Il. Porter, deceas-
ed. STEPHEN BRowNING was the Wing, and
Tnos. s. TAYLOR, the Van Buren candidate.
The vote stood l9l for Browning, and l6l for
Taylor-the largest vote believed ever. to
have been polled in that town. This being
the first election since the death of Mr.. Pot
ter, il was considered as of immense import
ancc in its bearing upon all future elections
in that town and county. The Jackson ma
jority has generally been about 50--now, 30

THE Although we have not
Of late said much upon the subject Of the next
Presidency, we have in no wise been inatten-
tive observers Of the "sgns of the tllnes;" and
we with confidence rciterate our belief, that
Daniel Webster of Massachusetts will be the
individual for whose election the great body
of the Wings throughout the country, will III
timatey concentrate their best endeavours.
TO show the sentiments which are entertain
d in various parts of the country, we give in
our columns to day, several well written ar
ticles, for which we bcspeak an attentive con-
sideration. Distinguished as Mr.. Webster
is, both at home and abroad--well known
and Justly appreciated as are his services
pre- eminent as are his qualifications; a COM
parison Of his claims to the Presidency, with
those Of his most illustrious competitors, can
not but prove advantageous to him, with all
candid and impartial minds. We know that
calumnies, engendcred in malice and propa-
gated with factious superservlceable zeal,
have created unfricndly feelings towards Mr..
Webster, but as mlsts which partially obscure
the morning sun, break away and are dispel-
led by the radiance Of the noon day glory, so
are the preudiccs of bye gone days rapidly
being removed; the light Of truth is shining
brightly, clearly out--and while every page of
our history, is bcaining with his name-while
every record of our capitol, tells Of his scrvic-
cs-while every forum throughout the land,
echoes with his soul-s,rring eloquence,--
Americans begin TO feel n patriot pride, in
knowing that the name of Daniel Webster,
as an orator, iurst, and Statesman, is ranked
among the highest and noblest throughout
the civilized world.

RIOT.-There was riot in Boston last
Wednesday, caused by a meeting of the
female anti-savery society, 1t was announ-
ced that Mr.. Thompson would deliver an ad-
dress before the society. The mob took the
sign OF the Libcrator down and broke 1t to
pieces. The Mayor informed the mob that
Mr.. Thompson was not in the city, and advis-
ed them to 90 home. The mob succeeded in
arresting Garrison, he was conducted to Jail
for safe keeping and was dismissed the next
morning, leaving the city immediately.
Fire in Boston.-.4rrest of hcendiaries.-
Thursday night, about II o'clock, the house
of Mr.. Joshua Benson in South street, Bos-
ton, was consumed by fire. The premises
were occupied by eighteen Irish families
consisting of 1870 members. The fire was
the work of incendiaries. Two persons
were arrested on Friday night in consequence
Of information furnished by a third person to
the Chief Engineer Of the Fire Department.
1t Is said that the two persons arrested made
proposals to the one who gave the informa-
ton to join them, who seemingly complied,
and saw them apply the match, and then
gave the information. Their names are
Crocker and Russell. They have been ex-
amined and committed for trial at the next

NEWPORT:
WHIG NOMINATION,
FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES,
DANIEL WEBSTER.
Of .Massac chusetis.
THE LEGISLATURE
OF fMassachusetts.

OF this State, is now IN session at South
Kingston. A quorum Of the House being
present on Tuesday morning, Christopher AL
len OF North Kingston, was chosen Speaker,
without opposition, and Messrs. Geo. Turner
and Dexter Randall, were elected clerks
The following is said to be the substance of
'Christopher's speech on his elevation to the
Speakers CHAIR
Gentlemen ofthc House OF Representatives;
Permit me to return you my sincere thanks,
for the honor conferred on me in appointing
me to preside over the deliberations Of your
sess the requirements and experience Of some
at all times, to decide honestly and impartial
,ly; and should | err at any time in any decis-
ion may make, shall look with confidence
to members Of this House, for portion of
that charity that has been so literally be-
slowed on all former occupants Of this Chair.
With firm reliance on your friendly aid and
co-opcratons more than in any abilities that
possess, | will enter upon the duties Of the
appointment.
We understand that It. Gov. Engs having
previously determined to resign his office,
forwarded his resignation to the Governor at
the commencement of the session. When
the Senate convened on Tuesday, it was as
certaincd that without the presence Of the
Lieutenant Governor (Scnator Almy, of Lit.
tie Compton being also absent, from Sickness J
a quorum could not be formed, and the Gov
'ernor forthwith dispatched a messenger to
Lit. Gov. Engs, informing him of the necessi-
ty of his attendance. Gov. Engs rather than
the wheels of government should be toppcd,
yielded to the exigency of the case, and ac-
Icordingly left town yesterday morning for
South Kingston.
The House was principally occupied yes
terday afternoon in the appointment of the
usual standing committees, receiving private
petitions, &c. AT half past 1, the house ad.
journed to meet at 1 o'clock this morning,
having previously agreed to join the Senate
in Grand Committee at that hour for the ap-
pointment of a Committee to count the votes
for members Of Congress.

FIRE IN WICKFoRD.-We learn that the

heroic exertons. They turned out and pas
sed buckets until the fire was eflectually

A SIGN.-The Sentinel, n thoroughgong
Jackson and Wolf paper, printed at Easton,
Pa. the residence of Governor Wolf, holds
the following language in relation to Mr..
Van Buren,:
GAS TO Van Buren,, we feel disposed to say
little about him--we dislike the man, and his
measures, and we believe the great body of
the democracy of our state dislike him.
"lf the people of Pennsylvania are to be
cheated out of their vote, it is quite a minor
matter to whom that vote is given; but Mar
I'm Van Buren should be one Of the last to
receive it,"
