Hon. THApDECs STEVENS, OF PENNSYLVANIA, IN
TIE FIELD FoR CLAY--At the Whig Convention
at Danville, Caledonia county, Vermont, which
nominated George r. Chandler for Congress. we
perceive by the reported proceedings, that Hon
Thaddeus Stevens, Of Lancaster, Pennsylvania,
was present, and the Montpelier Watchman states
that nc delivered an able address, distinguished
ioI wit, power and e!nquencc, which will long be
remembered by the thousands who heard IT," II
will be recollected that paragraph has been 60
ing TIE rounds of the Loco. Foco papers, stating
that Mr.. S. was among the latest batch of con-
verts TO Loco. Focoisrl, 1t appears that this rI-
NOR found It's way INTO tho Vermont Patriot, du.
mig Mr.. S.cve-ss visit 10 that State and the Edl.
tor of that paper gave Mr.. S. an limitation "to
speak in his own behalf" He did speak, and the
Patriot "caught Tartar :" He did speak"
says the Wstchman, "aud SO speak IN behalf Of
the gosd Whjg cause that his effort on that occa-
sion will tell, not only now but for years TO come.
1t was speech from man ofwhom old Caledo.
MIA is Justly proud; the essence OF il will be re.
pes,ed in every house in that county; it will be
told by tho fathers to their children, and be re-
membered for years to come. Would that every
Loco-Foco in the district could have heard him
In reference 10 Polk and Slavery and the Tariff.
The leaders of that party would have wished TO
:ink into the earth rather than to have heard their
miserable regeneration and hypocrisy exposed
to the people us Mr. Stevens exposed them We
repeat it--tbanks, L thousand thanks, to the Vcr-
mont Patriot" Boston Atlas.
The Texas HUMBUG.-Ih he Editor of the Frank
fort Commonwealth gives us some information
relative TO the prospects of Annexationsts' in
Kentucky. He says ;-' We are more and more
convinced that'the Texas humbug is dying out.
We have lately been out among the hills and over
the plains of good portion OF Kentucky, and
mixed unreservedIy among the people, in their
houses and in masses, and we found they shrunk
from the dehonor, the inamy and crime Of Ty-
ler's treaty, they would from nois0mc pesti-
lence. The Locos themselves are growing dis
pirted in reference TO this question They are
sinking under tho monstrous cnormity Of Tyler's
treaty, and some of them are sliding down by
saying they are for Texas, but not for the treaty.
Let them say ON WHAT TERMS they propose the ac-
QUESTION Forco them out, fellow Wings. II
they persist in the attempt to make this the great
issue overriding ali Others, they bound TO state
their TERMS. But this they won't do unless
they arc forced TO it. The Wings have now de-
cidedly the vantage ground on this question, with
which, in their desperation the Locos hoped 10
blow us up. We have only TO stand by our can
didates, maintaining our integrity and clinging
close to our principles, 90 give Loco Focosm an
utter overthrow. They see and feel this, and
they are sinking under tho consciousness of in
svtabe defeat"
TARIFF ANEcDorE.-A Loco. Foco farmer came
to Wheeling market not long ago with Cheese to
sell. He made bargain with Shoemaker and
took shoes for his cheese. After tho trade IVES
made, he began to grumb!e about the Protective
Tariff. Said he, Now with your rascay Wing
protection, you have pocEeted just the amount of
the protection, and taken it ffom me without Civ.
ing me an equivalent. The shoemaker replied
that he thought he was mistaken. No, said the
farmer, there is no mistake about il the consumer
always pays as much more for the article as the
protection amounts TO, and you may preach your
Wing nonsense till you are gray, You can't make
me believe il. We'll, said the shoemaker, will
make you fair proposition, and if your doctrine
is true, it certainly IS fair, will deduct the pro-
lection from the Shoes and you shall deduct the
protection from tho cheese and ~ we will make
fair exchange. Agreed, said the Loco. Upon
examination tho protection On shoes was about
so per cent, and that on cheese 9 cents per 10.
The poor Loco gave 1t up and backed out, for he
found his cheese was worth only cents per ID.
In that market, and that after dcduct!ng the pro-
lection, he would no: only have 10 give away his
cheese, but 3 cents for every pound beside. he
went home, hosted an Ash pole, and now goes for
Clay and Protsction. His name can be given ii
required. o. p. Q.
