since his obnoxious principles which we have been COM
batting or years, have undergone no change The prn'
cpies OF Mr. Polk precisely the that enter
tanned by MIR Tyler. This say no doubtful author
ity. The same may be confidently said Of Mr.. Dallas.
Therefore shall advocate the election OF Polk and Dali
las And they will be elected easily-Madiscnian
We think that the above announcement conveys
an lntimation of by far the most important result
which has followed the withdrawal Of Captain Ty.
Ter. John Jones sstl alive and kicking, "straight
forward in the old Madisonian aud Jeffersonian
republican path !" John Jones is still in the field.
John Jones has not Withdrawn. John Jones is
game. John Jones won't be killed off, And John
Jones is determined not to be idle. He says with
the Queen in Cymbeline-
IT'S not sleepy business
But must be looked to speedily and atrongly
We give you hearty greeting, John Jones =
There's fun in you. There's great fun in you-
And heaven knows your democratic brethren of
the press want some Of that commodity, for dull.
Ter, more commonplace, and inspid set than
they are, one couldn't find in Christendom. Who
amongst them could condense into one paragraph
SO much valor, spirit. and heroic daring, as John
haspressed into the few nervous, forcible and en-
phatic sentences we have quoted? How modestly
John reviews his past achievements and announces
his future chivalric course We know nothing to
equal 1t except the speech Of his eminent name
sake, Sir John Falstaf-"Lord, Lord, how this
world isgven to lying! l grant you, was down
and out Of breath; and SO was he: but we rose
both in an instant, and fought long hour by
Shrewsbury clock. II may be believed, SO, if
not, let them that should reward valor, bear the
sin upon their own heads I'll follow, as they say,
for reward. He that rewards me, God reward
him."
The JEws-We have received an immense
number OF communications from both the con-
tending parties amongst the Jews Of this city.
Most Of them are horribly personal and abusive;
and none Of them give any additional information
respecting the difficulties in the camp Of Israel
We advise both parties to cultivate brotherly love-
and keep cool II is silly at all times to get angry
but in this hot weather it is positively insanity
itself. We never get angry 1t is true, OCCASION
ally, the vleness Of the party press disgracing our
glorious instltuhons-the corruption of courts OF
justice, trampiing on the laws both of God and
man-and the hypocrsies Of wicked pretenders to
honesty and vrtue disappearing all that is pure and
good, excite us to wrath; but these things would
provoke the man of Uz himself. And after ALL
pity mingles with our indignation, making it like
that of the tender father who loves while he whps
the erring child.
We say, then, to the children of Abraham-keep
GOBLET not the sun 60 down upon your wrath
leave off roasting each other, for you have got
other fish to fry-and who of US Genties can equal
you at that?
DIR. LARDNER's ENTERTAINMENTs-Theb box Of
flee at Pamos theatre will open to-day for the sale
of tickets of admission to DR.. Lardner's entertain
ments. The price is fixed at one dollar only, In
order to encourage and facilitate the attendance of
{ov~a 81.
y acceptable. Subscribers may select seats in the
order Of their application, and as the house will.
we have doubt, be filled up to its fullest capaci
ty, the earlier the application is made by all who
desire choice OF seats the better.
The inaugural lecture on Monday evening
next, will be in great degree similar following
for the progress ofscence) to thatwhich DR.. Lard
per delivered at the opening of the London Uni
versity, which was attended by the most brilliant
audience perhaps ever assembled on such an occa-
sion-composed ofmembers Of both Houses of Par
Lament, cabinet ministers, the diplomatic corps.
&c. &c. That lecture received mark of appro-
baton which was said to be unprecedent for that
kind Of thing-it icas cncored. The Doctor was
called on TO deliver it over again, partly because
the house could not hold halt the number that
came, and partly because many OF those who did
come, seriously wished to hear it over again, and
did actually attend its repetition.
The unprecedented scale Of magnitude in which
the illustrations will be given-the great novelty
and splendor OF many of them, must attract very
crowded houses, independent of the very great in
ducement held out by the intrinsic importance and
interest of the lectures themselves We can only
add our advice with respect to early application
for tickets.
MELANCHOLY ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE IN BROOKLYN
LAST EvENING.-A person of respectability last
evening attempted suicide by cutting his throat in
our sister city while laBoring under ftiof tempo

his brother, by some friends. Medical assistance
was Immediately called in, and every thing that
was necessary was done TO prevent fatal result,
but at late hour last evening little or no hopes
were entertained OF his recovery. Out of respect
to the unfortunate mainland his family, we forbear
giving further particulars at present.
