CHESTER SCHOOL HOT Sc.

\ political meeting was held at Chester school
house on the evening of Saturday last. Several
political aboiltionists attended and adIrc ssad tho
meeting IN the most bitter denunciations of Mr.
Clay. 1t has been truly said, there Is bat one
step from the sublime TO the ridiculous and if
ever that step was taken il was marched off on
the occasion referred TO. An honest conscien-
tious MAN-an abotionist Of the most ultra
school, if he acts from the impulses of an ntel-
gent mind and the promptings of an honest and
conscientious heart, at all times commands our
respect We believe fully appreciate the
benevolence and philanthropy of any heart which
truly yearns for the freedom of tho whole human
family. 1t is. next to the alteration of our com

The loco editors are expressing their horror
that the whig party should support for the Presi-
doncy man who had fought a DUEL. All the
anathemas of their PIoUs souls are hurled against
Mr.. Clay for having gone into the field, and there
carried out the false code of honor True
Mr.. Clay has fought two duels: bat he has new
er yet sent human being to another world bv
any act of his. whilst Gen. Jackson. Mr.. Ben
ton. Mr.. DromgooIe. and several other members
of the modern Democratic party have KILLED
THEIR MAN and yet not one word is said about
this IN the loco papers. Many Of the public men
of our country have fought upon the false princi-
pie of honor: and the practice should be con-
demned in all alike. We offer no apology for
Mr.. Clay. bu. simply ask that nc may not be con-
demned for an act, whilst his opponents are ap-
plauded for a far more criminal offence against
the laws of God and man.

DEMOCRATIC RALLY IN HAMILTON
COUNTY.

The continued and increasing enthusiasm oil The
Democracy Of this county, surpasses all former eA-
ample. Nothing like il was ever known here.
The meeting at the county seat (Lake Pleasantly

ple-the bone and sinew Of the land--had come to-
gether from the extreme limits of the county-irom
thirty to forty miles of-and such was their anxiety

FURTHER FROM BUFFALO.

The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser Of Monday
gives further particulars of the terrible gale at
that place on Friday and Saturday last.
No former gale was ever so destructive of proper
ty and life. The number Of buildings of all kinds
utterly destroyed can hardly be less than one hun
dred. Most Of these Of little value, but some Of
them were large and costly structures. The loss IN
this species of property, buildings and effects, viii
not probably fail short Of $4,000 The loss in build
ings partially oyerthrown, removed from their foun
dalons, unrooied damaged in other respects, the
number Of which is vastly greater than those com
pletely destroyed, will probably amount to as much
more The loss by damage Of goods and merchan-
disc in warehouses; the injury sustained by steam
boats vessels and canal boats and the loss Of wood
lumber staves building materials, &c, it is utterly
impossible to estimate, but 1t must amount TO much
more than the aggregate loss in buildings destroyed
or injured. The total loss Of every kind may be
safely put down at S250,0O0.
Coroner Harris informs US that he has held in
quests on thirty eight persons. We hope tomorrow
to be able 10 give the names Of all the drowned
and missing. The number will probably exceed
fifty.
little boat or sballop of about Is tons burthen,
left here Friday evening for Canada. loaded with

and every person on board was drowned except the

The Julia Palmer, whose dangerous situation we
noticed on Saturday, came in safely, with all on
board, yesterday morning.

"The wates, driven from shore by the south wind,
returned, aided by the west wind with astonish-
ing and frightiu rapdty, and in very short time
the landing beach and docks at Barcelona were sub
merged, the waves driving them with prodgious
violence. The dock and warehouse Of Mr.. John Ea.
son carried of, together with goods probably
amounting TO five thousand dollar, belonging
10 various persons in the country. The storehouse
went upon the rocks Of the lighthouse, and was
dashed into splinters and the goods washed away or
sunk. The warehouse lately belonging to the BARGE
Iona Company was moved about SIX feet from its
foundations, hut being heavily loaded with salt, it did
not go of, and thus the Office Of Mr.. Eason and the
store Of Mr. Joel Smith were saved from destruction
The damage done to the piers and storo-houses is
estimated at $4,000.

We understand that the Wings are making
extensive arrangements to circulate false ac-
counts of the election in Ohio and Pennsylv Iva
mia, next week. Money is freely expended to
convey by expresses, fabricated returns into
States which vote at subsequent day. 1t is
supposed that these false returns will exhibit
