The slang of the Pittsburgh Republican
about the Burlington Tippecanoc Club is alike
false and contemplate. The Burlington dele
cation was received at the wharf by the citizens
of Pittsburgh, and by them conducted through
the village and the idea of their doing or design
ing any thing to disturb the locofocos, is too alb
surb to talk about. The truth is, doubtless, that
the presence of five or six hundred Green Noun
tain Boys in the village was too powerful an at
traction for ocotoco oratory to resist, and we
are credbly informed that there was terrible
scattering from the administration camp. This
is what the Republican is mad about But
Stone ought to have more regard for decency,
than to wantonly assal body of men whom HE
kao'cs to be above reproach-and that too, for
so very contemplate reason.

RIcH MOUSE NEsT.-Three years ago, Mr.. John

ty, had his money drawer repeatedly robbed and
though every expedent resorted to, to detect the

had hard thoughts Of his Clerks his servants and ev-
of some OF those who visited his house, Finding
that the money continued TO disappear noty7lthsand

and the robbery ceased. Last week, some Carpen-

VOICE FROM WASHINGTON COUNTY

The last Montpelier Watchman brings us the
following significant indication of the "sober
second thoughts" of the people of Mortified,
in that county These individuals too, we learn
from the Waterman, are, with one exception,
tillers Of the soil-men of good character and
standing--who seek neither Office nor spoils, but
only good government, honestly administered.
TO THE PUBLIC.
We the undersigned have heretofore been support
crs OF the administration of Mr. Van Buren, under
the impression that the principles which he protested
were in accordance with the democracy of Jefferson
and MadsOn but after a careful examination of the
measures OF the present administration and compar-
ing them with the sentiments they formerly protested
to hold, we have become convinced that they widely
differ from what was considered democracy in 1923
We do therefore hereby announce our determination
to abandon the administrations and finding that I'm.
H. HrriSon, has been nominated for the Presidency.
we will give him and the principles as laid down by
the Wings our most ardent support, believing that by
this course, shall carry the principles of true
democracy and do justice to one who has served

TIE YANKEES IN COMMAND OF
THE CHINESE NAVY.

LfyERpoo1. Sept. An recent Calcutta
paper we find the following extract from let
Ter from Manila, descriptive OF sod Lln's
naratime armaments and the alleged confede-
racy Of the Americans with Chinese. A YAM
kee Celestial navy will be formidable affair !!
I. Old Inns going on as usual the English
vessels that he bought up some time ago have
been turned into men-of-war; they are TO be
manned partly by Chinese and partly Yankees :
Three American captains have accepted the
command at SIP. Dis. 1000. a month, and one
fifth of the prize money. The American mer-
chants are indignant at this, ard the American
Vice Consul has sent in remonstrance. How
ever, the renegade Yankees have sent in an
answer to the effect, that consideration alone
will induce them to give up so favorable com
mand." The writer also describes the present
condition of Manila and the lamentable dis
tress of its inhabitants. 1.-THE Manila go
vernment," he observes, s have in COZ sdera-
ton of favorable treaty OF commerce with the
Chinese, shut the port against the importation
of opium. The rice crop again is total fail
ure, and the lower orders in very great distress;
several cases of robbery aud murder had oc-
Cured there during the course of very short
time.'

Here is nearly $4,000 expended BY Client
worth in the respectable business of staying
bipe,'' all of which,, is said, Gov. Seward
vas acquainted with. 1t is probable that the
sirtuous contributors to this fund did not know.
what he did with it. So, it is probable that
they were not aware Of its uses. In this SAD
md melancholy business, we firmly believe
hat James B. Glentworth IS comparatively
e innocent and injured man. He ''laid pipe
.kcause he could not help it. The ccntrlbu-
tors 70 this enormous sum are the real tempt
ers-they are The guilty-and deserve the
punishment, if any is to be Inflicted.

Developments may be on the approaching cleo
Eea, we neither know nor care. These dis
closures present damning proofs Of guilt, and
We denounce them, and all concerned in them,

are equally guilty Of the like dark deeds, let

Meantime, let the grand Jurors of an honest

FaoM FLoRlDA.-We copy from the Apa-
lachicola Advertiser Of the 23th plt., the fol-
lowing paragraph. 1t has long been suspect
ed that there were viilainous white men con-
nected with the Indian operations in Florida.
and this seems to be the first clue to their dis
covery:
There is rumor here, for the truth Of which
we do not vouch, that two or three, or one or
two white persons have been arrested at Falla-
hasse, on suspicion OF being connected with
the Indians. The, name Of one is johnson
Cook, man well known TO many Of our. citi-
zens, who was endeavohng to purchase key
of powder. This man resided with the In
dams previous to the Dmmencement of hos
,litiss, and is supposed to have been WITH
and adopted their mode Of life from choice
When taken, he is saidto havedisplayed IN
dca,ions Of having been recently painted at
ter the manner of the savages. We hope this
is true, and if so. that every inducement VIII
be held out, to elicit Information concerning
the urging places Of the enemy.

FLORIDA WAR

1t appears, by statement of the St. Angus
tine Herald Of the Sd inst, that the war in
Floridais about to be prosecuted with unusual
viger. The Herald saws:
We are happy to announce that the Secreta-
ry of War has requested the Navy Depart
ment to order the commander Of the West In
dia Squadron to provide for the protection Of
Key y est and the Florida Keys generally.
And also to send out boat expe ditions into
the bays and inlets of the coast, to cut off any
parties Of Indians who may be lowering about
the shores.
Vessels will be kept upon the coast to cut
Oft any chances of communication, by which
supplies may be furnished them from abroad.
Two entire and fresh regiments Of United
States troops are already ordered to Florida.
The Governor is authorized to raise 900
horsemen in addition to those already in the
