READ OUT OF THE PARTY.

The Charleston Mercury has decided
that no one but a through free trade"
supporter can properly remain o5rrebe re-
tanned in the Loco Feco ranks. The
Globe holds the same opinion and in
some recent remarks on the message of
Governor Porter. Of Pennsylvania, 10
which the Governor gave utteranee TO the
true Pennsylvania doctrine Of Supporting
Our own domestic labor, gives that high
functionary to understand that such doc
trineris little less than treason TO the" DE
mocracy." The Mercury notices with
marks Of high appreciation this article in
the Globe, and says:
"We are glad that the Globe has read Cover
nor Porter, Of Pennsylgan:a, out of the Demo-
cratic party, as will be seen in The admirable
article we snbjoin. Lei The whole Democratic
press follow The honest example, and turn over
all such Democrats to the wings where they
belong. If the Democracy desire 10 gain, retain
and deserve ascendancs as alparfy, they must
connive atno betrayal Of their principles 10 sub
serve Personal and local purposes. The polli-
Clans who cannot get along without The support
Of tariff men, must be told thai if they shape
their course to conciliale tariff men, they must
not expect the Supporter counienance OF Demo-
crats.p
So, then. we have il here er cathedra

long to them. Very good. This secures

ATTEMPT AT MURDER AND PIRACY.


An attempt At murder and piracy was made
on board The Brig Poultney, Of Baltimore, on
the 25lh Of November last, on her passage TO
South America, BY The first and second mates
OF the vessel Their plan was 10 murder The
Captain, and turn the vessel into = pirate.
The Captain attempting 10 come on deck was
knocked down by the second mate. The crew
hearing the scuffle attempted to 60 below, but
were prevented BY the 6rst mates telling them
shat the capita in would shoot the first man who
came in the cabin-lhe truth however flashed
across their minds. and By their timely inserfe-
renee obliged the second mate te desist from his
murderous int ntions. and Captain Mouait's life
was thus saved. The Boston Daily Advertiser,
contains the following additional items:
sThe crew testified that they had heard the
two mates conversingas they sattogether On the
main hatch, the day before the attack, and
heard the second mate tell the chief mate that
the latter was too chicken hearted and if he
would be quiet, he CHE second maseD would
despatch the old man. E4E
1.-THE crew had been asked by the second
mate TO join 10 taking the vessel but refused.
! "Capt Mouatt is IS years of age, an old trader
to South America, and much respected. He
owned half the vessel and cargo. He had no
difficulty either with the mates or the crew, but
was rather remarkable for being too easy with
his men, and too indulgent to his rmatesi'
