the third Congressional district, composed
of the 18th, 18th, and 18th wards ofthe city
of Baltimore, Baltimore and Carol counties.
and Howard districtin Ann Arundel county,
partial returns give decided majority fol
Wethered, the wing candidate, and great
wing gain since the last October election
Mr.. Kennedy's election is an important anC
gratifying triumph, for the combined forces
of the Locofocos and TyIerites made des
perate effort to beat him.

s.TmE FEVER IS UP."- The Statesman OF

question were disposed Of at the Globe Of

"The fever is up says the Statesman
pray it may not carry our member of, at least
any further removed from his duties to has
constituents than they at present find him.
BY the bye, we propose publishing this
SPLENDID effort of the ''Oregon member" III
our next. The dear people of this district
may feel some anxiety 10 know what has be-
come of the gentleman they sent TO Con
gress, and it is our duty TO give them the in
formation. Mr. Owen does not expect {
favor ofthe kind from one Sin the habit o
calling him locofoco," but what of that?-
We know what we are about, as he vii! b'

Owen will send US copy of the euiogy Oh
his speech which he is preparing for the
Statesman, we will publish that also. VIII

Questions have arisen, however, and are
likely to arise again, upon thesextent Of lis
powers, or upon the line which separatesthe
functions ofthe General government from
those of the State Governments; and these
questions viii require, wherever they may
occur, not only frmness, bat much discretion,
prudence and impartiallity in the Head fthe
National Executive. Extreme counsels Or
extreme opinions on either side would be
very likely, if followed or adopted, to break
up the well adjusted balance ofthe whole
| And he who has the greatest confidence III
his own judgement, or the strongest reliance
on his own good fortune may yet be well diff
gdent of his ability TO discharge the duties
1 OF this trust in such manner as shall pro-
mote the public prosperity, or advance his
own reputation.
But, gentlemen the Office of President il
quite too high to be sought by personal soli-
citation, or for private ends and objects, it is
not to be declined if proffered by the volun-
4 tary desire Of a free people.
1t is now more than thirty years since you
and your fellow citizens of New Hampshire,
4 assigned me part in political affairs. My
.. public conduct since that period is known
MY opinions on the great questions, aow
most interesting TO the country, are known.
: The constitutional principles which | have
4 endeavored to maintain, are also known. IF
5 these principles and these opinions, now not
likely to be materially changed, should re-
commend RE to further marks ofpublic re-
5 gard and confidence, should not withhold
Il myself from compliance with the general
+ will. But have no pretensions of my Own
to bring forward, and trust that no friends of
mine would at any time use my name for the
/ purpose preventing Harmony among those
/ whose general political opinions concur, or
q for any cause whatever, but conscientious
i regard 10 the good Of the country.
. 1t is obvious, gentlemen, that at the pre-
: sent moment the tendency of opinion among
re those to be represented in the Convention
r is generally and strongly set in another di-
recton. | think it my duty, therefore, un-
u der existing circumstances, torequest those
e who may feel preference for me, not to IN
10 dulge in that preference, nor oppose any ob-
stacle to the wishes ofpolitical friends, or TO
united and cordial efforts for the accomplish
ment of those wishes.
The election of the next autumn must m
Ell volve, in general, the same principles, and

MR.. WEBSTER,-Ther reader will find
in our columns to-day letter from Daniel
Webster in answer to letter addressed to
him by one thousand gentlemen Of New
Hampshire, requesting permission TO use his
name in connection with the Presidency
Il is entirely Satisfactory as TO the course he
will persue in the coming contest. The Ma
donal Inteligencer says:
..The letter of Mr. Webster, which appears
in the preceding columns, will be read. every
where with the interest which, in the minds
of all men, however personally disposed To-
wards the author of it, must attach his opin-
on public affairs. For ourselves, we find
Mr. Webster where we wished and expect
ed TO find him, ready to sacrifice all lesser
considerations for the public good, and TO the
success of the cause which he believes to- be
identified whit. Such were his sentiments
in the last great contest for the ascendency
ofcorrect principles; and such, we now know
from himself, which we ne=er doubted, will
be his course in the contest which lies be-
fore u.s."

When David Henshaw was appointed
Collector of Boston, some gentlemen asked
him TO retain one or two clerks who had
been long in the Office. To which he To-
conically replied-"Not Wing shall taste
single crumb that falls from the Jackson
table, This he uttered witt horrible,
6endish grin, that was enough sto appal the
devil" He then went on and carried his
threats into execution. But now this political
monster finds, most Justly, ''the poisoned
chalice commended to his own lips" BY an
almost unanimous rejection by the Senate.
Notwithstanding this, like hungry leech, he
sticks to office ender the pretence thai the
President desires it, and this too, when il is
notorious that the chief clerk in every de-
parment, acts as Secretary when the princi-
pal is absent or defunct.
