Nh. CLAY IN PENNsYLvANIA.-Mr Clay is
fast gaining ground In PsnsylVania-the
Germans who have 50 long opposed him ha-
too, IS as much OF more interested on the
Tariff than any State in the Union, and viii
not support any man who is opposed 90 that
measure. The "Vaterland's Wschter," a
German Anti-Masonic paper, published At
Harrisburg, and which paper with the great
body OF the An:i.Masons has always opposed
Mr.. Clay for the Presidency, has raised the
flag of Henry Clay. The ''Lshigh Patriot, "
another Anu-Masonic German paper, has
Withdrawn the name Of Gen. Scott from the
head Of lis columns and substitutes that of
Harry Of the West. All the Scott papers are
following the example set by Gen. Scott
himself and rallying around Harry Of tht
WeR. When we have such demonstrations
as these, we have good reason to calculate
upon the vote of Pennsylvania fer Mr.. Clay
in 1914.

REPUTATION.

Some unknown friend has transmitted to
US the speech Of Carroll Spence, Esq, Of
Baltimore city, on the subject of providing
means to pay the debts of the State. Also
a letter from the same gentleman 10 a gen.
tleman Of Pennsylvania, on the subject OF
Reputation. They breathe the true spirit
of patriotism in every line, aud contain j
vigor of thought equal, if not superior, to
any thing we ever read on The subject We
regret that the want Of room at present pre-
vents US from making copous extracts. We
give paragraph from tho letter on rePudi-
alton, which will give tho reader some idea
Of the force Of Mr.. Spence's style.

tensions. Can il be possible, that any num-

corner stones Of RIGHT, are lUTUALGTY and

the earth, and anarchy and disorder rear
themselves upon its ruins. No people can

OUR COUNTRY AND FEoPLE-CuT country,
says the Bangor Wing, is large and freely
pouring out OF its abundance TO reward the
hand o! diligence and TO make glad the hearts
Of the people. The people Of our country
are blessed above those Of any ether in free
dom, in intelligence, in moral worth and IN
all the means Of prosperity and happiness
Yet with all these advantages and with
plenty budding out on every side, there is
death pressure felt upon business and con-
tinual sinking down in the value of property
and the price Of labor. This grows out Of
evil legislation and false political doctrines.
The people hold the power in their hands TO
correct these evils-to redeem the people
from this distress which weighs down It's
energies and the business Of the people.
II has been we'll said "the nation wants
and will have faithful administration Of it's
public afairs-it wants and will have a suf

world--it wants and will have q better price

The TYLER Foco PREss.-The Pig and
he PupPy.--A correspondent Of the ProVi.
dence Journal tells capital story of gen.
tleman, whe, some years ago, had pretty
pig, which he determined to send as a pre-
sent 10 his Clergyman. One morning he
called his servant John, and told him 10 put
the pig into a bag, and carry il to the Parson
as Christmas gift, John caught the pig,
tied him up in the bag and started Off with
a merry heart for the parsons house. He
knocked at the door and upon inquiry was
ushered into the presence Of the Divine, and
handed hin the bag containing, az he suppo-
posed, the pig. When the bag was opened,
10! instead Of the pig was an i'll locking pup
py. Well, said the parson to john what do
you mean by bringing me this miserable little
puppy? Why, said John, my master told
me to bring the pig, and when put him
into the bag he was pig, but now he has
turned into puppy. Go to your master,
you dog, and tell him don't thank him for
his puppy. John returned 10 his master and
related the singular occurrence. The mas
ter somewhat incredulous, ordered John to
open the bag that he might inspect for him
self, and sure enough there was the pig
Now, John 60 back again and present my
compliments TO the parson, and beg him 10
accept Of this very fine little pig as Christ
mas present. No, master, can't have any
thing to do with thing that's pig enc mo-
ment and a puppy the next.
This anecdoie iorcibly illustrates the con
digion Of the Tyler press. At one time il
appears TO be a republican "pig," at another

AVALUABLE HINT.-The following sugges-
ton is from the Newark Daily Adviser:
sit had been the custom in some Of our
country districts 10 sell the poor of the par
ish to the lowest bidder. Why not dispose
of political beggars in the same Wayi Sup.
pose when an Office becomes vacant, the ap.
pointing power should advertise for propO-
sails as the Post Office dose for mail contracts,
and give il to the lowest bidder who can
furnish the necessary securities. It might
save politicians some arti6ce and folly, and
the country much agitation and dishonor.
Truly the country is sadly metamoTphosed,
Political ambition, as things now 60, is the
vulgar vice of mediocrity, ofminds without
intrinsic VigOr enough 10 win distinction in
any other field; hence the miserable shut
ding, the strife and scramble, which render
all the seats Of political power lOathsome
scenes of bribery and corruption"

containing the Poems Of Mr.. GARRISON, and de-
signed by the publisher as an introduction to the

of the Poems arc connected with Slavery, and
they all exhibit nervous strength and the most ar

writer's energy. The following Sonnet affords
at once specimen of the Poetry in the volume
and an Indication Of the fearless devotion Of the
writer to the cause he has cspouscd:

PnLo,orar THE PL4N OF saLv.TIos A Book for the
Weed; New.Y York NJ. w. Dodd and Robert Carter.
This is the second edition Of work of decided
value and ability. The writer states that it was
written in the form of letters to skeptica friend
explaining the grounds on which the author had
renounced his former skcpticism and embraced
the doctrines of Christianity The several diff
cultics which frequently lead the minds of the
earnest and thoughtful into doubt and disbelief
concerning the divine authority Of Christianity
are boldly and ably met, and VIC think no one can
read the book without decided profit. We com
mend it to general attention. The first edition
met rapid sale, and we have little doubt the
second will be equally welcome
