PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIoN.--Il is well
known by all our readers. that we have,
from the commencement of the excitement
Of this question, been decidedly in favor of
Mr. Webster. He had our first choice
above all other men in our country, and
VIC lament exceedingly the events which
have transpircd TO compel us, as it were, 20
abandon him. Gen. Harrison seems TO be
the choice of the people of Vermont; and
the popular movements in various other
parts ofthe country seem to point to him
MS the popular candidate of the Wings.
This being the case, and having no prefer
cnce after Webster before him. we have
to-day inserted the ticket nominated by
our State Convention. We now, there
fore, recommend 10 the suffrage of our
fellow citizens William Henry Harrison for
our next President and believing as we do
| that the rescue depends entirely upon the
prompt and united action of the people, we
hope they will come out to the help of this
candidate in opposition to the nominee of
the Baltimore Convention, with cordially
and determination. Let all personal feel
| ings that might operate in any way &c ainst
| the success of Gen. Harrison be generously
thrown aside, and then if we do not sue
coed according to our wish. we shall have
left the satisfaction of having made an hon
est rial. --Cdaicton Statesman.

ar A Doct. Bartlett of Lincoln, Die.
recently brought, suit ugnins, WIN. Forbes
for slanderously accusing his wife of "adnl~
teyy and lcwdness Of various aggravated
kinds" Forbes rested his defence on the
truth of,hc allegation, and introduced testi
mony to establish it. The jury, however,
returned verdict Of Sl75 for the PLAINTIFF;
by which we suppose they meant to say
,ha, Mrs. b. was leeiie guilty, but that

Ia our estimation, woman, who has any

Pig Story. An agricultural friend has
communicated to the Bangor Farmer the
following interesting and somewhat lmpor'
tant fucts. "In December one of his hogs
disappeared from the yard, and was not seen
nor could any intelligence be gained re
specting him for three weeks at which
time he was discovered making his way
from snow drift, reduced to almost skel-
eton. On examining the spot, pail from
which he had usually fed was FOUND, much
rubbed and worn. The hog had crowded
his head into it, and being unable to extri-
cate himself, had wandered off with it on
his head, in which situation he had remain
ed during the whole time" From these
facts the editor comes to the conclusion tina,
"hogs will not thrive well with bonnets on
but will live a great while in a dreadful
fix"

Mr.. Buchanan made an Intellectual mo-

Land Bill was brought under consideration
by vote off to "a A very close vote
certainly, but much more cheering than
the vote of 81 against, to nineteen in favor
as taken yesterday,
Mr.. Ewing then rose and addressed the
Senate-presented clear and unadorned
logical argument in favor of the bill repor-
ted by his committee. He demonstrated
by an arithmetlcal calculation that the Ma
tonal Surplus at the close ofthe next year
would be FIFTY MILLION OF DOL
LARS. That the fact will be so very in.

gave way to motion to go into Executive
