the Secretary of the Treasury and the

whence, or where transported, we know

foretaste of the hard-money Sub-Trea.

transmitting the funds Of the Govern
ment by means Of the cheap, safe, and
rapid system Of exchange, which pre-
vuIed before the banks were debau-

THE CHERoKEEs-The prudence
and energy of Gen. Scott have already
produced the finest effect. While they
were taking in Congress, he was acting
in Georgia. He had collected about
three thousand of the Cherokees, with
out shedding a drop Of blood, before he
received the Secretary's Letter.-The
General will 60 on, with removal-and
Georgia will be satisfied, Let US sat-
isly, if possible, the Cherokees them
selves, if money can Go it. Remove
them, but pay them. We have never
examined the merits of the Treaty
though there is no question but great
deal Of idle clamor has been got up by

slightest doubt about il, we would rather

The Washington correspondent Of
the New York Courier ~ Enquirer
gives the following report of side scenes
in the House of Representatives:
"On Tuesday last Mr.. Petrlken and
Mr.. Cushman better known as Mr..
Previous Question: had some squahb.
ling. They are brethren of the same
principle, and ought to live in love and
unity. Petriken has the most eccentri-
city and independence Cushman the
most good humor, and | suspect tine
most dry Yankee wit.-Petriken wears
long queue. After the brush be-
tween the parties was over, Cushman
enquired-"does not the previous ques.
ton cut off every thing :" Being an
swered in the affirmative, he very drily
remarked,-"Well, the first opportunity
| have I'll move the previous question
on Petrikin's cue, and cut that off,"
To day Mr.. Boon, of Indiana, O.
pened the debate in behalf ofthe squat
ters, and commenced by brief allusion
to his own entrance into life. Among
other things, he remarked that at an
early period he had moved with his
wife and children into the western
wilds, and that his nearest neighbor
was an Indian.
Mr.. Ewing of Indiana, followed
He remarked that it was not his inten-
ion to give the House history ofhis
life but when he did undertake it, he
would give the whole, and not suppress
a part. Al to the fact of his colleague
Doom having for his nearest neighbor
an Indian, he did not think that ought
to excite the sympathy Of the House
in favor Of the sqatters, until it was as.
certainsd which had the worst Of the
association, the Indian or his colleague.

From the Madisonian.
MIR. CLAY.


We have frequently presented, to
our readers, extracts from the Neac
York Times, which were ably written
and much to the point at issue. The
Richmond Enquirer, taking exceptions
to the nomination, made by the Times
of Henry Clay for President and ". p.
Ta1lmadge for Vice President, holds
the following language:
"All budget OF blunders {! We will
have none ofthem. What go over
to Mr.. Clay friend of national
bank, of the tariff, of Internal improve
ments and such ultra federal notions =
The New York Times is an able paper:
but no ingenuity it can display, can
Justify such a palpable desertion of the
principles ofthe republican party. The
issue Will be, Clay and national bank
or V an Buren, and uncompromislng hos
tility to it and upon that issue we re-
peat our sland-"to sink or Scim with
Martin Van Buren,"
To which the Times makes the follow
reply. Read every line of it, ye Con-
Seruatires, Wings, and Loco Focos.
We might have been tlattered some
what by the compliment which the En-
qurer pays to our ability, were 1t not
coupled with the assertion that we had
"deserted The principles ofthe republican
party. We challenge the Enquirer to
point to an article or sentence in our
paper to support that assertion.
We maintain that we are standing
on the old republican platform OF Jeit-
orson and Madison, and thatthe admin
istration has ''deSerted The republican
partv." But We viii not waste words
in bandying assertions with the Enqul-
rer. We are the accused party, and
when that paper sees fit to make spe-
fic charges, we will plead not guilty,
and put orSelueS upon the country.
The objections made to our candidate
for President, Mr.. CLAY, are, that he
is a friend OF q NATIONAL BANK, OF IN
TERNAL IMPROVEMENTS, and of the
TARIFF.
AS to a NATIONAL BANK, the course
of the present Administration has, du-
ring the last year, made more converts
10 Mr.. Ciay's doctrine upon that head,
than any influence Mr.. Clay or his
friends have exercised; thousands IN this
section of the Union, who were oppo'
nents of national bank at the close OF
Gen. Jackson's administration, are now
decided advocates Oft, and among them
are many who cling to Mr.. Van Bu-
rem.
But we have been told by Senator
Wright, who is at the head OF the IL
nance committee, and who, from the IN
innate and confidential relation in which
he stands to the president, may be sup.
posed to speak his sentiments and opln-
ions on this subject, that we must hare
the sUB-TREAsURY or a NATIoNALBANk.
The same alternative has been again
and again presented by the official organ
ofthe Executive, the Globe.
If there be no other alternative but
TO choose between NATIONAL BANK
aud the sUB-TREAsURY, we have no
doubt that the great body Of the repub-
lcan party, will choose NATIONAL
! BANK. We will add, ifthe people will

FATAL AccIDEST.--On the After.
noon of the Sd inst. EDMUND TYLER.
ESQ. of Aide, intending 10 ride down
TO his farm in the neighborhood, had
promised to take his son ROBERT with
him, remarkably fine promising child
between four and five years old. For
this purpose gentle Pony was procur.
ed from Mr.. Berkeley's with chId's
saddle. They had proceeded but
short distance from the House, when
the pony started and threw the child,
whose foot becoming entanglcd in the
stirrup, he was dragged some distance
on the ground before he could be relic
we'd. Medical aid was prompt in at.
tendance, and every effort made to re.
store him, but in vain. He died in
few minutes after being brought to his
fathers House. -Lcesburg Genius of

The Toronto Patriot says Lord
Durham has made demand on the
British Government for $4,000 more
Troops. This can hardly be true,
we think. There are already some
$4,000 British troops in the North A,
merican Provinces, to say nothing oil

ted, it will be well for the American
government to inquire what they are
wanted for. 1t cannot be for the pre-

HoRR1p EvExT.-Ye sterday NOR
ming. AT about s O'Clock, a most dis
tressing accident occurred IN Mr..
Bouyier's circular saw-mlll establish
ment. for saving mahogany, which IS
situated 10 the rear OF the corners OF
Second and Walnu. street. As Mr.
ENos HALLowELL, who attends al an
immense circular saw on The premises,
was drawing heavy piece OF mahog-
any from pile near by, for Inc puf-
pose of placing 1t to the saw, the WOOD
caught in being pulled, and giving hum
a sudden impulse, caused him to iall
headlong and with fearful force against
the saw. The instrument is perfectly
round, with huge sharp teeth, and re-
wolves horizontally with tremendous
power, beng driven by steam. The
unfortunate man, on being pressed a.
painst the saw, was caught through
his leather cap, which was torn as
quick as thought into fragments, and
the horrid edge ran with fierce veloci-
ty completely round his head, tearing
and severing the skull almost in twain.
He then fell, and in falling was
again caught, and a cash which ex-
tended from the sinciput to the temples,
laying open the bone on either slde'
was inflicted. Most wonderful to state
the revolving steel did not touch his
brain. The blood eushed in torrents
from his wounds, which were dressed
with all possible care by DR.. West,
who was soon in attendance. The
sufferer, though senseless when he fell,
was enabled TO speak fairtly when his
wounds were dressed, and was taken to
the Hospital. Nothing, when he was
removed, had as yet been successful
in stopping the effusion of blood. 1t is
hardly hoped, although it is barely
poss Bile, that he may recover. II ne
should, his case will be one Of thou
sand. Phil. Gaz.

UNUSUAL EVENT AND INTERESTING
cEREMoNIAL.-Mrs. Mannheim presen-
ted her husband in this city, 10 days "a
90, with three sons at one birth Pa
rent and children are all doing well.-
This event was duly celebrated on
Sunday last (on the 9Th day, according
to the Hebrew Ritual by the circum-
cision and naming of the three little
strangers, Isaac, Daniel, and jacob
(see the 18th, chapter of Genesis u
pom which occasion, DR.. Cohen, IN a
very impressive address, pronounced
the event to be without precedent a
mong the people of his nation. The
whole ceremony was unique to stran>
gers, and very interesting to all the wit
nesses. AS the rite was performed
with each infant, a neat silver medal,
with the name inscribed, and hung with
a differently colored ribbon was thrown
around the neck of each, to distinguish
him from his brethren. A plentiful en-
tertainment, and some fine sacred mu-
sic, closed the ceremony.-Some Of the
Fair Sex, in the spirit of mother Eve,
might be tempted to enquire the ages
and temperament of the Parents of this
extraordinary Trio-but we do not feel
ourselves at liberty to unveil such mys.
teries to profane eyes.
Upon one point, we hope we are all
agreed-that the means of the Parents
may "lncrease and multiply" with the
number Of helrolispring.-Rich. Eng.

the other day. Mr.. Bynum made a
speech Of an hours length in reply to
the grand parade Of worthless pledges

the promised retrenchment and reform
related only TO national bank, high

To all this Mr.. Bond simply reioined
by observing that neither ofthose ques-
tons were included in the report Of
