| the Herald
According TO the N. Y Herald, the meeting then
broke no in " row, !" but we find no mention OF
| this circumstance in any OF the other New York
papers, infer that tits one OF the Herads usual
flights OF fancy"
This impudent and gratuitous " inference" comes
from branch OF some set Of miserable scoundrels
| who have misrepresented, illuminated, sandered,
and abused the Herald, ever since it was started,
merely because we tell the whole truth, and are in
dependent of all ciiques and all factions. The re.
port which was given in the Herald Of the Park
meeting, was true to the very letter. The other
New York papers did not mention the " row." be-
cause they always suppress truth and fact, when It's
publication would affect their paltry, personal or
party objects. We never allow any such motives to
prevent us from giving the public the whole truth
and the accuracy Of that account is as well known
in this city, as that Of every other report given in
the Herald For years the Wall street press has en-
deavored to weaken the influence Of the Herald, by
falsely charging US with mis-statements in our
ports on all subjects. and characterizing them
" romance" and :" flights Of fancy This has been
again and again attempted by James BOBBY Brooks,
and William Blockhead Townsend, but it has al
ways reacted upon themselves, and made them the
laughing stocks of the public.
CoSoREss Nothing is yet done in Congress, and
nothing will be done, till the people, throughout the
country, rise up in masses and demand them to 60
to work-pass laws-adjourn and 60 home.
MECHANICS AND WosxMo MEN.-It is time for
these most valuable classes Of citizens to stir up
hold large meeting-and call upon Congress to go
to work and prepare the country for the worst.
Nsw PosrMAsrrR-very little objection seems to
be made to the new Postmaster, Col. Graham. The
only whisper comes from the ppelayers-but their
pipes are nearly out by this time, and who cares for
them!
NExr PREsDENcY.-There is no use in Disgusting
1.-THE principal. and perhaps only, candidates for
the next presidency.wil be Martin Van Buren, on
one side and Henry Clay on the other-but Captain
Tyler will have the casting vote-and no mistake
All other candidates may as well clear out.
CLuss.-we have hickory clubs-hard cider
clubs-log cabin clubs-Van Buren, clubs-Clay
clubs-but alas there is no club for the country
no club for the public good.
THE BANKRUPT Law. Before a year has come
and go e. this law will be execrated by all parties.-
Such injustice never as will be perpetra,ed
under its mantle.
New TIrLE.-Colt, the celebrated manufacturer
of pistols, in this city, labels Of the pistol
cases, Laws Of Texas"
WELL MArcHRD.-The census Of Washington
County, Vermont, for lS4l, gives total Of IL 1853
males and IL ,753 females. Ofthese, IL males and
10 females are colored persons.
MoRE ABoUr STEAM NAvIcArloS.-This is sure
ly the age of Steam for scarcely day passes with
out giving something new in relation thereto.
1t said that the Archimedian screw, submerged,
and Invented by Smith, is to be introduced into
this country. Plans of it have been laid before 60
verRment, and vessel of six hundred tons or more
will probably be built to test it with Hunters and
Ericsson's.
We are glad of this. We think it time for our 60
vemment to enter spirtedly into steam navigation.
This screw is to be Immediately applied to half
a dozen ocean steamers building in Europe. The
great iron steamer at Bristol is to be propelled by
it. Also, two steamers to run between Bremen and
New York. and three French government steamers
And it is to be applied also to vessel building
on the Tyne Of 1850 tons, and 600 horse power and
to another for the Swedish government.
Those who have seen it say its power is immense.
According to experiments made in England, it
sends vessel through the water at the rate often
miles an hour.
Dun PACKET SHIPS AGAIN.-It appears, by facts,
that our packet ships have yet been quite ruined
by the steamers.
We understand that the Roscius, the finest and
indeed one the fastest ships ever built in this city,
will sail next Friday, under The command of Captain
Collins for Liverpool full Of cabin passengers having
over thirty already engaged.
No one can be surprised at this after visit to that
ship. for so splendid and spacious is seldom to
be seen. We verify believe that SO long as she and
her companions cross the Atlantic in the short space
of lime they have heretofore, there will be plenty of
passengers to go in them in spite of tn e steamers
And in winter voyage, who would not prefer
swift sailing packet to steam ships Those who
care for comfort and ease of mind would most
certainly.
If our government weuld fit out few ships with
speed equal to that OF the Roscus, for an African
squadron, there would be scarcity of slavers
on that coast Not clipper that floats could escape
them Our sloops-of.war are all such dull sailers
that in a chase SLAYER would quickly any one Of
them out Of sight. II is pity that the mo dels
of the vessels of our military marine are not copied
from those Of our commercial marine. 1t is pity,
because we have now to record the fact that the
Warren soop-ofwar was recently beaten twenty
three days, by meIchant vessel, in going from
Norfolk to Pensacola So says Florida paper
NV SYSTEM OF SocIErY.-Mr Brisbane, philo.
sopher OF Fourier school, has commenced series Of
articles in contemporary, for the purpose Of show
ing the advantage Of organizing agricultural society,
not In families, but in species Of corporations each
person 10 be the holder Of certain amount of stock
ano 10 work tor the common good. For instance,
aidree farm OF one thousand acres is TO be owned by
one hundred men and women, who are to be EN-
P'oyed according to their several capacities and
| talents some In cooking. some in ploughinq, some
IN carPenter-work' SOME in one thing, some in an.
o'her' ana every farm house Is TO be an Asor House
