TYLERISM.

We know not with what more express.
i've and appropriate epiihet TO mead the an
nexed paragraph from the Buffalo Com.
mercial Advertiser, than with the simple
word-Tylerism:
The Post Office building was illumina,-
ed last night, and its windows decorated
with exuting notices, in honor Of the Lo.
cofoco majority in this city. Amid all
the fierce party contests in this country,
never before has building occupied as
an office of the General Government, been
desecrated by such display to comment
crate party triumph.
The infamy Of this outrage-for an in.
famous outrage it was-rests upon Chas.
c. Haddock, a man who owes his present
position to the Wings. Unless President
Tyler is utterly lost to all sense of the
proprlety that should govern the conduct
Of federal officer. holder. he will reward
this act by an instant dismissal from of.
flee. The Post Office was The only build
ing in this city that was illuminated.
The idea that such an expression of de.
votion TO the cause Of his master should
endanger the pap Of the Buffalo Pos,mas.
ter will be somewhat new to the practice
of the White House. Every one knows
what the professions Of its occupant, in
his circulars to otfice-holders, &C., have
been. Our Buffllo contemporary has, it
seems, put some faith in these Executive
mandates, which astonishes us no, little.
We know OF no lower depths" than TY

since experienced what we did not then
believe, that there exists both profgacy
and power enough to exclude US from the
field of interchange with other nations
That TO BE INDEPENDENT FOR THE COM
FORTS OF LIFE WE MUST FABRIcATE THEM
OURSELVES. We must place the manu-.
facturer by the side of the agricaturalist.
The former question is suppressed, or
rather assumes a new form The grand
enquiry nop is, shall ICE make our own
comforts ? or 60 ,oithout them at the piU
of a foreign nation, He, therefore, who
IS now against domestic manufacture,
must be for reducing us either to depen.
dence on that foreign nation, or to be
clothed in skins, and to live like wild
beasts in dens and caverns. Experience
has taught me that manufactures are now
as necessary to our independence as to
our comfort"

A TEMPERANCE pRocessros in Frede-

A TEMPERANCE PROCESSION in Frede-
rick city. Maryland, which came off on
Tuesday, the 9Th instant, is said TO have
been one Of the largest and most imposing
spectacles that has been witnessed IN that
city for many years. From numerous
sections Of the surrounding country came
different temperance representations, who
swelrd the concourse to very large
number. The Citizen says:
"The sight Of this grea, Temperance
Army, as it moved through the principal
streets of the town, with Banners flying
and music playing, afforded full and sui.
ficient guaranty To the friends OF the cause,
tina, the time is fast approaching when
King Alcohol will be dspossessed Of the
last remaining portion Of territory to which
he can yet lay CLAIM in Frederick coun-
ty."
An address was delivered by l.. P. w.
Balch, Esq. which Is spoken OF in high
terms.

SENTENCE OF DEATn.-The Richmond

SENTENCE OF DEATn.-The Richmond
Enquirer says:
In the Criminal Court, on Saturday, in
the case Of Fletcher Heath, convicted Of
murder, his counsel made unavniling ef-
forts to obtain new trial on the ground,
first that one Of the witnesses for the
Commonwealth Martha GlIiam) was
mua,to; and, secondly, that Two Of the
Jurors had before the trial expressed their
opinion, that Heath should be hanged. -
Late in the evening the Judge pronounced
the awful sentence of death, 10 be car
tied ia.o effect on Friday the 23d Of De-
cemorr next. II was the first sentence
of death ever pronounced by Judge Mich
oas, and he seemed aft c,ed. He nd.
dressed some touching words to the pri.
soner, and enjoned him 10 prepare Tor his
fatal end.
Numerous bills Of exceptions in the
case Of Heath were taken up to the Gene.

From The Wheeling Times.
A BRIDGE OVER THE OHIO AT WHEEL.


ING.
We are inclined to hope that some lit
tie attention will be paid this winter, in
Congress, to the completion of the Ma
lonal road by the construction of bridge
over the Ohio at this point. There is ev-
cry lnducement that could operate upon
the mind of our representative in Congress
to urge its completion, great and power
ful inducements TO the people Of the west
to petition for it, as an act Of Justice to
them; sound reasons why the State of
Virginia should demand it 10 fulfi'ment of
a contract entered into with the State, and
very good reasons why the Government,
for expecting and securing its mails,
should make and apply the necessary ap.
preparation. Now that tho Baltimore and
Ohio Rail Road is completed to Cumber.
land, the mail schedule mus, be changed,
and leaving Baltimore in the morning, the
mail must necessarily leave here, and
cross the river in the evening. How is it
to be done at any time without danger
and delay, and particularly when the ice
and drift are running, without imminent
hazard? We should not be at all sur
prised if the difficulties in crossing the ri.
yer should cause failure of the mail at
Cincinnati half the time from Christmas
until the middle of March. Messrs Neil,
Moore e. Co., will do every thing that
men can do, but they cannot control the
elements, nor set the river on fire to light
their way through drifting ice.

PRESENCE OF MIND IN A WOMAN.

PRESENCE OF MIND IN A WOMAN
The Hartford Courant relates the follow.
ing expedIent by which Mrs. Clark, for.
merly Miss Perkins, Of Norwich, Conn,
saved her life and that Of her two daugh-
ters--being on board the steamboat Yer.
million lately burnt on Lake Huron
Her daughters were, one six and the other
twelve years Of age. "They were at the
stern of the boat, and finding no other
way of escape, she dropped them into the
water. giving the directions to seize hold
of cham as they rose, which she point
ed out, and which was attached to the
boat. Seeing them successful, she jump.
ed into the water herself, and they all
three kept hold Of the chain until assis-
lance came TO their relief.

A TRAIroR's REwARD.--The follow.
ing version Of wellknown fact is reat.
ed in the Joornal and Letters Of the late
Samuel Conovar, himself Tory and
refugee from America !:
''In the House of Commons, March 90,
l7s2, Lord Surrey happening to espy
Arnold, the American seeding General.
in the House, sent him message to de.

move for breaking up the gallery; to
which the General answered that he was
introduced by member to which Lord
Surrey replied he might under that con.
dilion stay, Jhe pouid promise TO neper
enter ii again, with which General Ar
mold complied. This is the second in.

II is 10 the middle classes of Society
that oil the finest feelings and the must
amiable propensIties Of our nature do prip.
cipaily flourish and abound. For the
good opinion Of our fellow men is the
strongest, though not the purest motive
to Virtue. The privations of poverty rem.
der US too cold and callous, and the priv.
ileges of property too arrogant and conse.
quential to feel; the first, places us be-
meath the influence of opinion the sec.
ond, above il.
There are many things that are thorns
to our hopes until we have attained them,
and envenomed arrows when We have.
When we feel strong desire to thrust
our advice upon others. it is Usually when
we suspect their weakness; but we ough,
rather to suspect our own.
The greatest and most amiable priv.
lege which the rich ENJOY over the poor,
is that which they exercise the least, the
privilege of making them happy.
The idle levy heavy tax upon the in
duslrious, when by frivolous pisitations
they rob them Of their time. Such per.
sons beg their daily happiness from door
to door, as beggars their daily bread and
like them, sometimes meet With rebuff.
A mere gossip ought not TO wonder if we
evlnce signs that we are tired Of him, see.
ing that we are indebted TO the honor of
his visit, solely to the circumstance of his
being tired Of himself. He sits at home
till he has accumulated an insupportable
load Of ennui. and he sall,es forth to dis
tribute j, among all his acquaintances.
So Idle are dull readers and so indus
trous are dull authors, that pulled non.
sense bids fair to blow Imputed sense
wholly out Of the field.
