LAKE HARBoas AND WAsrERN WATsRs.--s
The Albany Argus says:
ssThe noisy affectaton Of regard for the i'm.
provement Of the Lake Harbors and Rivers of
the Great West, wfich just now characterize
the articles in the Wing organ Of this State,
is we'll understood.
g The people of the West do not forget that
the last Wing Congress which increased the
national debt 81 9 600, 900, and lavished large
sums upon the army, the navy, and the forti.
fcations, did not appropriate scarcely dollar :
Of these millions to the Improvement Of Lake
Harbors.
1t comes with singular grace from the
Wing party, who had controlling majority
both in the Senate and House Of Representa-
tives-at this hou:, when the people have
forced then into a'minoriiy-to claim exclo-
sive friendship for works OF his cast. We
have noe~a doubt tiiAt they are ready TO pron-
Use any thing and every thing to satisfy the
demands of the West, but'the Wings had an
ample opportunity 10 evince their particular
regard for the West, and Inexperienced. under
the direction Of Mr.. Clay, 70 spend their ,ims
in passing bank bills and distribution laws
Yes, the shrewd and intelligent people of
the great West, fully understand all This, .and
will no. be deceived by the heartless pfomis-
es OF these coon-skin and hard-cider dema-
gogues again. The power Of federalism IL
lost fs1ever in the great valley If the West,
and never again will il rear its head, from this
quarter, .in 'the. Halls Of Congress- II has :
passed its second childhood. and The game Is :.
up with is.-Ohio Statesman.
UDprrirs OF GRr1r MrN.-The greatest
men are often, affected with The most trivial
circumstances, WHICH have no apparent con-
nec,ion with'the effects they produce. A gen.
,lenaa Of considerable celebrity always feels
SECURE against the cramp when he places HE
shoes. q, his going to bed, SO that -.he. right
shoe is on the left Of The. left shoe, and III
toe Of She right ncxt TO the heel Of flisr lest.--
Dr.. Johnson always, on going up Bolt Cous,
put ore foot on each stone Of the pavement;
il he failed, he felt certain thaLihk day would
be unlncky. Button; The celebrated nasusak
Isl, never wrote but in hSii dless. DR.. RoOsh,
Of Oxford. studied il u1canonicais. An ems
inent living writer 4sar never compose With
his slippers on. A celebrated preacher q the
last century could never make sef9onl 9Th
his carriers on. A great German critic WROTE
his Commentaries On Sophccles, with pot Of
por,Sr by his side. Schlegel ieclored at the
age of seya1ty-two, in Latin, with SHUT box
constantly in his hand.
