THE GLOBE-INCREASE OF EXECUTIVE
PATRONAGE &C.

The Globe as it will be perceived.by its columns,
published the Letter List of the City Post Office
We really felt quite curious-not to say jealous
to know how our inveterate Wing friends brought
about so remarkable conversion We began to feel
the most respectable alarm for the increase of Erec
tire patronage" We really began to fancy we saw
"Mordecai at the Kings gate" But it turns out af-
ter ALL that the Globe has only "turned the tables up
the Executive, by publishing the Letter List GRA-
IT'S!
So much for the "increase of Executive patronage"
which the Globe has extended to the Executive !-not
the Executive to the Globe.

PouQhkeepsie and Fishkill are the largest towns in
Duchess county, which has doubtless elected three
Opposition men 10 the Assembly. Same last year
Newburgh, Cornwall, New Windsor, and Mont

for Van Buren, by majority of 474.
ALBANY COUNTY.
The Albany Evening Journal of last evening says
We have reports from the different wards, which
render it probable that the city has given small loco

doubtful, with the chances against US.

THE HERO OF CHIPPEWA IN THE FIELD

The HERO OF CHIPPEWA in THE FIELD.
A circular letter addressed by the gallant Com
handing General of the U. s. Army to those of
his numerous friends who desire to make HIM
candidate for the Presidency, we copy to-day
from the Globe, in which it yesterday made its
first public appearance.
To the inquiry, nominated as a candi-
date for The Presidency, aOould you accept the
nomination. the General begs leave very re-
specially to reply promptly and frankly ''YEs."
The General, therefore, may be considered as
fairly entered upon the course for The Presidency
of these United States. The Globe leads the
attack upon him.

SINGULAR DEArH.-A remarkable case of death
from excessive physical irritation occurred at Fran
ingham a few days since A young man named
Henry Coolidge of that place, having shaved the face
OF his dead father previous to the interment of tho
corpse, soon after applied the same razor to his own
face Although his father had died natural death,
and nothing al all remarkable had been observed in
his manner of decease the face and head ofthe be-
gan to swell almost Immediately after having finished
himself corpse Such cases Of extreme irritation,
though rare, are not unprecedented although the ex
PLANTATION Of such phenomena is by no means easy.
In the present case the absorption OF virus by the dead
body almost impossible though there is other
manner in which at all satisfactorily account
for the violent irritation which followed the of the
razor and its fatal etIects-Nep Bedford Gag.

pies, which animal he used to raise in great variety
He could make them glow of large or small stature
at his pleasure and it said of him that his smaller
breed no larger than good size rat. If he wish
ed to stop the growth of particular animal he would
feed il upon milk in which had been boiled daisy roots
and after time would add nire TO this preparation
He had corresponding process to increase the growth
of puppies At the time Of his death he kept nearly
a thousand dogs.

PROSPECTUS.


The undersigned having purchased control
ling interest in the MADIsoNAN, proposes to issue
DAILY PAPER from this office on or about the
18th of December
The paper will be devoted to the support of
such constitutional measures as the interests Of
the People may demand-and from what has
been seen of the purposes Of President Tyler's
Administration, there is every reason to believe
that such measures only are in contemplation by
the present head of the Government.
We propose to labor for the entire restoration
of the pure doctrines and faithful practices of
the founders of our Republic-not to battle for
the mere exaltation of partisan dictators. To
advocate those principles of our patriotic fathers
which were altogether designed to ensure the
prosperity and happiness of the Confederacy, in
their original purity-not to tear down the mo-
dern fabrics of demagogues to erect p.destals
for other ambitious and dishonest aspirants. In
short, it is our design to pursue the RIGHT, alike
needless party names and party interests, and
to expose the WRONG, emanate from what men
or in what sections it may. But it is far from
our intention ever to indulge in wanton and
vulgar abuse. Yet we will not suffer the men
and measures we advocate to be unjustly as
persed, and wrongfuuy assailed, with impunity.
Heartily approving the independent course
pursued by the President during the late extra
ordinary session of Congress, it shall be our en-
deavor, at fitting period, to place before the
public all the circumstances connected with the
origin and fate of the two Bank bills.
That the DAILY MADIsoNIAN may merit the
support of the community indiscriminately, the
undersigned is resolved to brngto his assistance
in the editorial department the best political and
literary talent that can be secured. In aid of
this purpose, an able and experienced European
correspondent Situated at Bremen) has been
engaged to transmit to US by the steamers every
fortnight, the most comprehensive accounts of
the state and progress of things in the old
world of which he is capable. This enter
prise, we trust, will be duly appreciated by our
subscribers.
AS the only Administration Journal in the
District of Columbia, publishing, officially, the
proceedings of the Government and cherishing
and defending honestly and earnestly the prin-
ciples upon which the public acts of President
Tyler have thus far been founded, we may, we
trust justly calculate upon no inconsiderable
share at least of the support of that very COM
prehensive body of our fellow-citizens who are
the friends of good and faithful Government.

country before, we made some inquiries as

ccs Of getting more; aud the following is
the result.
The company went into operation, un-
der very advantageous charter from the
