SIMEON HOOKER,


The locoiocos have been playing wicked
imposition upon his venerable old man. They
kept him over from the 25th to the Ath, for the
purpose Of making him, by his presence and his
sence-for he is too deaf to hear any ordinary
convcrsation-gve countcnancc TO one of the
silest tricks imaginable. When Mr. Van Ness
had arrived at a suitable spot in his discourse,
he paused, and said, "Gcntlcmen, you have
heard something about an old man, Mr.. Hooker
YOU will now listen to Mr.. lTaswcll." Where
upon the Breakwatcr agent mounted the steps.
swung his fists, and began one of his gGndo-
quent orations, about matters and things in gem
eral but brcakwatcr stick or something clsc
got into his throat, and he run aground, lie
however ilounccd and frothcd and repeated his
single idea so often. that his friends became
alarmed and reminded him that hc'was "com-
ing out at the same hole he went in at when
he wisely took up the Free Press and read, very
badly, by the way, our remarks relative to Mr..
Hooker "Now, gentlemen" said hc begin
ming to brandish his fists again, Mr.. Hooker is
here to speak for himscl'-hc has been dccev-
ed and imposed upon--hc is dcmocrat-votcI
for Van Buren,, and will again--and Sir--ycs,
Sir have got the adayits TO prove ill.,
Well. sure enough. there sat Mr. Hooker but
as mute and unconscious of what was saying or
doing as the bench he sat upon. He said moth
Ing, knew nothing of the trick, and was finally
led from the house. without, we presume, know
ing why or wherefore And thus ended this
broad farce nothing but the merest stage effect
Great business surely, for such mem as {. 7.
Van Ness and N. b. IIaswel, thus to impose
upon and abuse an honest Old soldier! Men
who could be guilty of such an act of perlidy
would not hesitate to manufacture atiidavits
suited to the emergency. Our statement in re-
gard to Mr.. Hooker, was strictly true in all its
particulars, and we defy the whole crew to gain
say one word of it. And as to the idea Of the
old mans being imposed upon, it is UNQUALI-
FIEDLY FALSE He had fW knowledge
of the character OF the State Convention, as
we are able to PROVE. and unless We are misin-
formed, was opposed in his determination 10 at
tend, by the individual who has him in charge,
who being an ultra locoloco would have beer
very likely to have undeceved him, had he been
laboring under misapprohcnsion. We re-
peat, this will turn out to be one Of the ylcst
transactions ever perpetrated by men claiming
to be respectable. Such mon, eh, undertake
by nuendo and stage trckery, TO fasten the i'm.
putation Of laschood upon us, while themselves
practising the most fragrant deception My
masters, you mistake your man, as you shall
surely find before You get through with this
business

TNO THE PUBLIC. In offering this Edition OF
l. Smiths Geography and Atlas to the public, the
Publishers invite attention TO the following additions
and Improvements.
The biography has been carefully revised and en-
lnrged is Illustrated by about thirty additional Cuts
and is perfectly adapted in all its parts to the new
Maps.
The entire text of the book has "a, much cxpens,)
been thrown into uniform large type which we feel
confident will be regarded as very decided impro-
vcmcnt.
The tables appended to the Book were made up
with care, and contain much valuable information
in a condensed form. The names and length of the
principal Canals and Rail Roads Finished and in pro-
gress) are given, and the places connected also
complete list of the Colleges, Law and Medical
Schools, Theological Seminares and Religious do
nominations Of the United States. the reigning Sow
eregns OF Eurode, &c
An entire now Atlas accompanies the Book, con-
tanning eighteen very superior Maps, mostly drawn
expressly for this work from original surveys and the
most authentic sources, and embraces much valuable
information not to be found in any similar work.
Our own country has received special attention. The
Rail Roads Canals, navigation of Rivers and recent
changes, are all carefully marked, and many counties
are shown which do not appear in any other Atlas
Among the pecuaritles of this work may be mention
ed the plan Of showing the population of States and
Countries in round numbers on the face of the Maps
The navigation of Rivers for Ships, Steamboats,,
Sloops &c, is shown by placing at the head Of ma
vaation the appropriate characters for each.
The Map and Chart of the World combined Ton an
entire new plan, showing at one view the Natural and
Political Divisions of the Globe, the Extent, Popula-
ton Religion, Form of Government and State of
Civilization of each Counry) has attra.ted much at
tenton, and is considered a great improvement upon
any thing heretofore attempted in the form of Chart
ms here all shown at single glance, and the re-
lations they sustain to each other We would also
solicit attention to the remarkable dstinctness and
ease with which every name on the Map may be read,
MS well as to the very superior style and execution of
the work in other respects, The Questions ut the
close Of the Book are important and will be found
very convenient for a General Review.
