from herbs, sc, to the human system, in which the
lungs are not only defended from any irrespirabe

We need not fear that the President will
pause in his upright and fearless course He
will discharge his lOhoie duty faithfully. And
among the most important duties incumbent on
him, as he conceives we doubt not, is TO purge
the Government Of ultra official agents. Rabid
ultraism converts both Democrats and Wings
into Demagog ues-and they are eminenlly dan
gerous TO the best interests of the country. An
ultra seli-siyed Democrat of the present day

lican of the time Of Jefferson, than Mr.. Garret
Davis, Of Kealucky. is like a magnanimous
Wing of the Revolution.
We heard politician remark the other day
that, if he had the appointment Of fifty eight
Postmastels, he could give the preponderance 10
either Of the present parties. II This be so,
would not ten thousand ultra men, left In office,
produce second edition of the REIGN OF TER
RoR? But the reign of ultra men Is at an end

MR.. EWING AND MARTIN RANNAHAN.

Mr.. Ewing in his letter to his friend Mr..
CIittenden, says that he would as soon believe
a statement made by the Presidents doorkeeper
as by Mr.. Spencer. Well, now, we cannot SEE
why such comparison should have been insli-
tuted, since Mr.. Ewing admits substantially all
that Mr.. Spencer has stated. comparisons
are odorous." as Dogberry says in the play-but
does Mr.. Ewing mean to say that Martin Ran
nahan, the Presidents doorkeeper. is moi
man Of veracity2 All who know him would
testify 10 his responsibility. He is an Inshman
by birth, and generous son of that noble Isle.
Is it for this that he is to be insulted by the
grea; Hockhocking Spectator?

From the Indiana PA Peoisfer

Owing to the crowded state Of our columns last
week, we had no room for remarks upon the message
OF President Tyler and indeed it requires no COM
mendaon from the friends of the President to insure
public appreciation Its plain, practical, good COM
mon sense style, has met the approval of men of
all parties IN this section Of country 1t is brief and
to the polnt-a peculiar merit with the country
Printers-none of those long, windy documents,
without meaning, which have characterised proceed
ing administrations.
We arose from the perusal Of the message with
highly gratifed feelings, and with greater respect
for the President than formerly Notwithstanding
the foul and unmeasured abuse which has been
heaPed upon HIM by the uias of Parties, he stoops
not TO notice them, but attends wholly to the duties
OF his station. In the language of an eminent and
highly esteemed friend, with whom we were in con-
versation on the tubjcct of the message, "wc pity
the Clay whigs-we pity the violent enemies of Mr.
Tyler of parties for they will have great difficulty
IN laying their fingers upon single exceptionabIe
paragraph IN It," We hope readers WILL if they
have not already done So give the message a,ten-
tive perusal

Yankee land may hide her diminished head,
and the city Of brothehy love may henceforlh
claim The palm in those inventions which keep
the word of promise 10 the eye, but break il in

A friend of ours was the other day shown an

plying the kniie-lhe only tesI-he found that,
true enough, the ends of the sticks rere OF

appeared that the frame was Of bamboo down to
the ierules, on which are fitted the braces by
which the machine is uniurled, and from thence
of whalebone-short ends of which were stuck
in so as to have the joint concealed, and the
whole stick to appear as of one piece.
To those who are an .tait on the subject, it
will readily appear how great saving would
be made by this contrivance for as the slab of
whalebone, as taken fom the ANIMAL furnishes
very few pieces of sufficient length for an UNI
brella frame, such are costly, while the shorter
pieces are comparatively worthless The UNI
brella was of Philadelphia manufacture, and we
are told that large numbers of such have been
sold; SO we advise our readers TO look sharp in
buying umbrellas.
