THURSDAY EVENING, NOV. 9. ls4a.
THE JUBILEE OF APoSTATES.

The history of nations presents few, if any,
more striking instances Of successful dupliclty,
than those which, to our shame, have been
brought to light in this country within few
past years. After all, considering that the great
leading example occurred in SO conspicuous a
station as that of our Chief Magistracy, it may
be regarded as matter of pride, that so few have
been contaminated by this political leprosy.
Massachusetts seems to have suffered, next to
the nation, to the greatest extent from this I'M
happy turn of events her entire State Govern
ment was reyolulionized by the bride Of light
house TO be kept by one man, and commission
of Justice of the peace, to be held by another.
The first party, one Collins seems to have gotten
his full wages, and we hear nothing more from
him; but the second, one Bell, being dissatisfied
with his compensation, has rung an alarum
which has walked up the good people Of the Bay
State and shewn them with how small sum
their political rights may be bought up, unless
better guarded for the time to come. The Lo-
cofocos can upbraid the Wings for resorting to
clap-trap to obtain political victory, but their
mouths are sealed upon the subject of treachery.
Neither ought we to hear anything more about
blue-light Federalism; for if their man Collins's
light does not burn blue, it must be because the
color of treachery is nothing but darkness visible.
Little more than another year will roll by be-
fore Mr.. Tyler, with the Collinses, and Kelsoes,
and Bells Of the country, will have leave to re-
fire forever from stations which they have rem
dered unhappily notorious, and, as far as we can
estimate their feelings, it seems that they must
welcome the period when they will cease t. .e
the daily subjects of scorn and vituperation. The
official paper used to boast that Mr.. Tyler was
without any party; but since this truth has been
so widely and openly proclaimed throughout the
country from the highest source, that of the peo-
pie themselves, it has been wisely silent upon
this head. 1t is the best course.
Mr.. Tyler came to Washington in season Of
mourning, and gloom has hung over his stay,
but no sorrow will follow his departure.

THE GLOBE AND MADISONIAN.


A wordy war is going on between these jour
nails, in which the editor Of the Globe confronts
the Rashleigh Osbaldistone of the Cabinet for
such we take to be the Madisonion writer. The
subject in controversy is, whether John Tyler
is Not bound, while seeking admission into the
Locofoco ranks and a Locofoco nomination for
the Presidency, to make public profession of
faith in the omnipotence of the Van Buren, Con-
vention to be held in Baltimore The Madiso-
Man writer fights shy,.as though he would say
timeo Danaos, de-, although the Globe seems to
claim it as merit that he has thus opened a
door for Mr.. Tyler.
1t is very pretty game that these parties are
playing, and something like chess; one gives
check, and the other covers it, but they are both
fighting without pawns; in other words, the
people are not thought of in their game The
fact is, that while one is pushing discarded
President, and the other an accidental President,
the people are pushing certain favorite pawn
called Harry of the West; and they may as well
unite forces to oppose him at once, for ito this
complexion they must come at last"

GEORGETOWN DEMOCRACY.

Ourattenton was attracted to- pacard, while
passing through Georgetown the other day, in
viting the Democracy" to meet and concert
measures for giving dinner to DR.. DUNCAN on
his arrival to take his seat in the approaching
Congress. We were not aware, and have not
been informed, what entitled DR.. Duncan to Pc
cullar consideration among the selfstyled "De-
mocracy Of Georgetown" We should like to
inquire whether the same persons are instrument
tai in getting up this festival who bribed gang
OF negroes, few years since, to parade this city
with Wing banners ?-because, if so as DR..
Duncan is reputed to have a very good under
standing with the abolitionists, these same ne
groes may again be put in requisition on this to-
be joyous occasion.

CLAY CLUB.

A writer signing W. in the Intelligencer Of
this morning, urges the immediate formation OF
a Wing club or Committee in this city to con-
tribute to the success of the noble cause and
further the election of HENRY Clay. We need
not express our hearty concurrence in his sugges-
ton. Our press may not properly take the lead
in this matter, and we are therefore delighted &c
find the movement in quarter where II is entl-
tied to Difference Nowhere has Mr.. CLAY
warmer personal friends than in this city, and
we are persuaded they have it in their power te
testify their attachment in the most substantial
manner

Some time last June a Nonpareil escaped from
the aviary Of DR.. A. illiams, near the Navy
Yard. 1t remained few hours in the garden,
and then disappeared Since which time, hav-
ing neither seen nor heard of it, Dr. New. gave
it up as lost. A short time since, the weather
having become cool and frosty, he discovered to
his surprise and qualification that the little wan
derer had returned, and was endeavoring to get
into its former habitation; and as soon as he
opened the door it few into the aviary, and re-
joined ITS companions, This bird IS never seen,
in its wild state, further North than the Caro-
linas Now, as he escaped in warm weather,
when he found the seasons changing he followed
his natural instinct, and, knowing no warmer
climate than the aviary and greenhouse which
il had strayed from, he sought them. It is DR..
News opinion that these interesting birds, j
they were set at liberty in the spring, would
rear their young in the neighborhood, and return
in the fall TO their residence in the aviary
tional Inlelligencer.

WHAT, NEW YORK TOO!

Below are the first returns from the great city
Of New York, once the stronghold Of Locofoco-
ism. II must be borne in mind that in point Of
population, New York city is equal TO several
important States, taken singy, while in its bear
ing upon politics generally its consequence can
hardly be over-eslimated. Last spring, if we re-
member rightly, the Locofoco majority was be-
tween five and six thousand

THE CITY is WING.

We have the gratifying intelligence Of an
nouncing this morning, that the Wings have car
ried their ticket and that the day is ours. There
is to US peculiar pleasure in making this an
nouncement, inasmuch as while some Of our
contemporaries halted and others resisted, we
insisted throughout, that full ticket should be
rum and could be elected. Never surrender
was our watchword. The policy of such a
course is developed in the great victory we have
won.
THE RESULT.
The following is the result, SO far as it could
be ascertained to late hour last night The
18th Ward has not yet been heard from Off
cially, but the Locofoco majority has been placed
at 200. The Native American ticket received a
heavy vote, particularly in the 9th and 18th
Wards, where it can ahead of the others. 1t
probably polled 5000 or 5000 in the city through
out. The Subterraneans dropped their own
ticket about noon, and canvassed hard against
what they termed "the common eneny-the

Riots in Haitian, ~. S.-Loss of Lite.-A Sc
rious riot occurred in Halifax 25th ult., between
a number of rowdies and party Of Her Males
tvs rifle brigade the first were the strongest, and
in the melee killed one of the soldiers, named
William Thatcher. Upon the news reaching
the barracks, reinforcement of soldiers joined
their retreating comrades, rallied, and thrashed
the rowdies most numerically. Order was at
las, restored by a detachment Of the picquet, and
several arrests made The riot was again re-
newed on the Goth. The military, smarting
under the injury inflicted on Wednesday even
ing, came out Of barracks, prepared for fight,
which shortly after ensued, on the ground where
the previous battle was fought A few heads
were more or less injured, and one house Occur
pied by man named Cooley was rather Quilted.
An innocent spectator, named Cashan, got his
head laid open for his curiosity. Many persons
were carried home on both evenings severely
wounded. This is bloody work. Our Nova
Scotian contemporaries, who are wont to draw
invidous comparisons between the respect fol
law in the States and the Provinces, had better
keep silent.-N. Y. Sun.

Norfolk on Palestine, &C., advertises in a Nor

months, should sufficient encouragement be of

states that London, Paris, Rome, and Athens,
would be the principal seaports for rest and re-
creation" Price for the excursion, $500. In
former times, such an excursion would have been
considered an arduous undertaking but now il
can be performed in less than year, allowing
ample time to visit and inspect the various cities,
curiosities, &c. In good steamer, with an
agreeable company, such voyages can hardly fail
of being attractive.--Nat. Intelligencer. .1
