ANorHER DEMONSTRATION.

JOS. d. Husbands, Esq. of Rochester, N
York, heretofore one Of the leaders of the loco
foco party, delivered an Grafton on the 9TH, at
Mt. Morris Temperance Celebration. In al
luding to the aspect of public affairs, he took
occasion TO speak in severe terms of the efforts
now being made to extend human bondage, by
the annexation Of Texas. The locolocos were
much offended at his remarks, and the Adver-
tiser (loco) read him out of the party, for the
very reason that he claimed the privilege of
thinking Tor himself. Mr. Husbands replied in
long communication, through the Rochester
Democrat. He says in one sentence-"I had
supposed that Democracy did not seek to fet-
ter the mind and conscience Of her votaries;
that liberty Of conscience was essential TO her
very existence, and do believe that in viola
ting the rule, that the will of the majority,
when fairly expressed, should govern; in tame
~ submitting to Southern strategy and domin-
alton; in deserving Mr. Van Buren, because he
dared TO express his sentiments on a great ma
tona question in favor of human liberty; in
adopting Mr. Polk as the candidate for Press
dent, because he was in favor of the annexa-
ton of TeXas;-BY THESE ACTS, AMONG
OTHERS, THE DEMoCRATIc PARTY ADAM
DoNED THEIR PRINCIPLES; and that lDhen for
the purpose Of securing temporary triumph,
or for any other purpose, party departs from

of the state Of feeling existing between Gov.
Francis Thomas and DR. WIN. Tyler, growing
out Of the domestic troubles of the former.
They met yesterday at Walng's Hotel on
the and Aoor whittier the doctor was on pro-
ftssionaI visit to some of the dodgers; but thro'
Waing's interference the Governor was held
back until the doctor had reached the bar-room
in his descent, where the doctor, drawing a
pair of Colts revolving pistols, prepared to re-
ceve his Exceency, should he make a demon
straion to attack him.
The Governor descended also, and made a
spring like a tiger at the DOCTORS throat. The
doctor raised his pistol to the Governors breast,
but the by-standers, at the risk Of their lives,
dashed them apart, and carried the belligerents
into separate rooms, for their choler to subside
Gov. Thomas was subsequently a9esSl by
the sheriff and taken before justice of the
peace, and being required to enter into recog-
nizances TO keep the peace peremptory de-
clined doing so, when he was forthwilh-dis-
charged from custody!
The Governor has been about Frederick for
several nights past, causing the general remark
that he is bewildered from some cause or other.

DETURNS his thanks 10 the public for their
IL patronage while he has been in business on
the credit system, and hopes still to merit con-
inuance of the same. While he informs his friends
and neighbours that he does carry on business for

that he is not in the a,efM situation Of one using
underhanded means TO get any out of town.

dred yards of cloth for eight hundred garments, Of
which over six hundred must have been Goats,

but nothing as to the opinion Of the engineer has
transpired The surveyors are now examining
more thoroughly the east side route, in order that
the advantages and Disadvantages OF each may be

is stated that the river at this place is only about
500 feet wide, and that nature has erected stone
