FISHERMEN!-A WORD.

When company ofindividuals employ
an agent to transact business for them and
send him away to attend to it, paving his
way, and giving him good wages for look
ing faithfully to their interests, it certain
ly is right that he should do what they
expect him; and if he fail to do his duty,
and fold his arms and look quietly on
without making an effort to oppose those
who are injurng his employers, he proves
himself an unfaithlu steward, & certain
Iy does not deserve to be entrusted By
those or any other individuals, with other
business. If he sought the engagement
and promised faithfully to transact the
business truly, and to the best advantage
for his employers, he is so much more
culrable.
Now it is similar case when citizens
ola county elect representative, and send
him to the seat of government to prevent
the repeating of an act, or for the purpose
Of bringing about The enactment of law
10 benefit their county and themselves
And if said representative through imbeci-
lily or inattenlion fails to do what he
promised, and what he was elected to &C
complish, he certainly is culpable in a
like degree with the agen. Of the business
men stated in the case above, and does
not deserve again to receive the votes Of
his fellow citizens.
Fishermen, of North East river, and OF
all the rivers of Cecil county, last year
many of you assisted to elect to the legis-
lature of this state, Mr. Nathan Lakeland
lie being extensively engaged in the fish
ing business, you expected him to attend
to your interests and his own. That, he
promised you he would do. During the
session a bill was brought forward to re-
peal the law prohibiting the setting of Gil
nets in the head waters of the Chesapeake
Bay. The repeal of that law would ope
rate greatly to your loss. When it cam,
up, did he oppose il? Never that heart

What is i'm n Name

Why is it that the name of Henry Clay is
never mentioned in public without an out
break Of enthusiastic applause The Utica
Gazette tells lis, that while Prof Grimes
was lecturing in that place on Phrenology
he had occasion frequently 10 hold up
for the inspection ofthe audience the por-
traits Of various persons remarkable for
some prominent external indiction, and
for corresponding mental manifestation of
character-Among the rest that of Henry
Clay and the moment that was done and
the audience caughta view of it, with the
announcement that this is the head Of
Henry Clay and before the lecturer had
time to utter another word, there burst
spontaneously and as it seemed, with al
most entire unanimity, such repeated
and drowning peal of applause, encoring
and ceerlng, three times repeated, as to
make the whole house as it were, shake,
and the echoes Of the explosion to rever-
berate through it. arches and colonades
Professor Grimes was evidently astonished
and taken by surprise; and when the noise
had a little subsidized pleasantly remarked,
tina, he chad undesignedIy touched avery
crcitable organ or bumpm
1t was the heart that was touched by
the name of Henry Clay-it was the we'll

FOrgeries! FOrgeries!

We have again and again notified the
public that the tendency of the principles
of locofocoism, is dounward! Look "a
bout for defalcations. forgeries, robbie
ries, murders, riots, resistance to lawful
authority, and all tina. tends to anarchy
and crime. Have they not increased ten
fold at least since Jackson, Van Buren,,
Tyler, locofoco toryism has been in the
ascendant. See the forger!es and deialca-
tons in Delaware. See those recently in
New York and Massachusetts, with their
tnnumerable train every where. Does
not these arise from the laxity of morality
of locofocoism2 Who are the men that
get office under the locofoco rule of Van
Buren, and TyleI-not the honest and
capable, but he who will be the most sub
servient, he who will use the most unhal-
lowed means to buoy up the sinking ship
of toryism.
Is not extravaganza and population a
part of locofocoism? Is not Lynch Lac
adopted by many Of their leaders, Does
no, the last Gazette more than acink at
lawless violence Does he not recon-
mend it, and for what2 only because the
vices of the vicious and profligate are ex-

locofocos, in which portion of the above
facts are stated. Below will be found the
conclusion of that article, to which ask
attention.:
awe have called the project of the Har-
ford repealers "repudiating plan"-and
such i. is. They may disclaim the appel
lation of regulators no man of
sense will be deceived by that The
State creditors hold the bonds of the
Commonwealth; these bonds are evidences
of debt requiring no farther proof; they
are not contingent upon the success or
failure Of our public works. we gave them
in good faith, and in good faith we must
redeem them. This is the sum of the
whole matter. No subterfuge will avail,
there is no room for equivocation. In the
eyes of the world-in the face of Justice
in the verdict of our own consciences
we ares dlshonoured people unless those
bonds are redeemed. No invectye nor
denunciation can remove the seal of the
State from those pledges Of her faith
No act of the people, if majority of
them were disposed to do it, could invai-
date the obligation which SOVEREIGNTY
incurred when it subjected itself to the
dominion of justice and Of right, whose
laws are universal in human affairs, and
more potential by far than those of any
earthly power
The argument of inability which is put
forth with SO much elaborate detail in
iIarford,is one which it is difficult to rea-
son about because it rests entirely upon
matter of fact 1t is an assertion which
the anti-tax men make. Will each de-
clare, for himself individually tina, they
cannot pay the State tax of twenty five
cents in the hundred dollars? Is there
any man in Hartford assessed at five lhous-
and collars who will say that he is unable
really and truly, to pay State tax OIL
twelve dollars and fifty cents2 And thai
other notion about the want of circulation
sutiiclent to pay taxes wilh-a phantasy
"a vain apprehension utterly without
foundation. 1t ls a remarkable proof o.
the shifts and device. to which these mer
are driven that they venture 10 put forth
such an idea as serious argument.
We leave the subject for the present by
saying briefly that ifthe plan of selling the
States interest in the public works Is efrc
emily carried out, the taxes which will b,
required to provide for the residue of debt
that will remain must be very small indeed
II the States claim to her just interest in
the Public Lands is made good, as we
hope it will be before long, our debt will
be merely nominal, or it may be entirely
removed; and all Safe taxation will disap.
pear with it, We shall then have tho
proud satisfaction of knowing that Mary
land has passed through fearful crlsi:
with honour untarnshed; the cloud will
bave passed away from our sky, and the
star of the good old Commonwealth will
beam forth brightly from amid the con-
stellalion of G loEious lights that shed lus-
tire upon the banner Of Freedom.
