RECEPTION OF THE PRESIDENT ELECT
AT WASHINGTON.

From various sources we collect the following
account of the reception of the "Farmcr of North
Bend" at the capital Of the nation. The
pendent of the N. Y. Express, under date of 9th
inst. wri,es as follows
''Twelve years ago coming March, tho first, the
very first, among all the numerous victims ola fla
grant and persevering system of description, Gen.
William Henry Harrison struck from the roll
of Ministers Plenipotenary abroad, by Gen. Jack.
and Thomas Moore, OF Kentucky, was substi-

which has been prolonged for twelve years, sacri.

such extent, that few, or none Of them now en-
Joy the honor emoluments of common Gov
eminent, enters the Capital OF his country o.day
by the voice Of 10 out of 26 States OF the Union,
and amid the acclamatons Of thousands of freemen.
The air rings with their cheers. The venerable
old man walks in the storm along Pennsy lvania
Avenue to the City Hall amid double columns Of
human beings, the bells ringing merriIy, the fakes
of snow rapidly mngIing with his grey locks, his
eye flashing FIRE, and his step as firm Of youth,
or lnsty manhood! 1t is his hour of triumph. His
heart heats high doubt.
What a spectacle fors human admiration, il is
What chequered life! What change from the
quiet of the good old mansion, the weatherboarded
We who have helped do all this, feel proud too,
and we pray Heaven, it may all be for good.
! As Gen. Harrison was escorted by the sounds Of
martial music; in the hands OF the city authorities,
| from the Rail Road depot on Pennsylvania Avenue
| to the City Hail. the flags Of the Capital went up
over the heads of Senators and Representatives -
The power though that has so long dwell in the
hands Of party there, is cut short by the arrival
! Of this humble Farmer Of that Ncrth Bend. The
great and distinguished Men, whose eloquence has
so often Illuminated the Capitol the bolts Of whose
logic have almost made its even marble pillars
shake, though falling UNDECIDED upon the reckless
ness that there holds sway, sacrificed their am

NJ1The Washington Globe says, No sooner
had he (Gen. Harrson) put his foot on the Penn
syIvania Avenue, Tin Washington City) than the
robbing commenced, and a multitude had their
pockets picked in the course of five minutes
No doubt Of this. The gang who have been
picking the National Treasury for so many years,
now there is not any thing in it to pick, would
quite naturally turn their hand TO picking pockets
Men do moi very willingly, at once, abandon their
vocation. Our hope is that Con. Harrison will
expel forever these picking gentlemen from the
capital of the nation.

of nature not calculated to allay the excitement
or the frontiers:
"The revolutionary cut tbroats in the United
States have recently shown themselves in their
proper characters. Nlr Mcleod, who was arrested
and confined in Lockport for alleged par,icipa
tion in the burning of the steamer Caroline at
Schlosser, having been admitted to bail by the le
sun, Of Ave thousand dollars, the Sovereigns of
Lockpor determined that the omnipoience of the
law should be subject to them. With drums and
military ensigns there tumultuous gathering
to prevent Mr. McLeods gaining his liberty, and
the miserable Judge who had sanctioned the bail,
was forced to leave his bed and give an account of
his conduct to the omnipotent rabble.
Such behavior as this to British subjects is really
carrying the joke TOO far, and Americans may yet
find that forbearance has its proper limit sohsn they
