THE AROUSE OF TIE MASSES.
GREAT RATIFICATION CON VEN
TION OF INDIANA.

The scene upon the ground beggars
description, and we shall make no at
TEMPT to describe it. The numbers pres
eul were varlously estimated from twenty
10 10000; but the most prevalent opin-
ion among those with whom we cOnvers
cd. and who were situated so as 10 have
survey Of the mighty multitude. was, that
were $4,000 on the ground. 1t was as
was well remarked by one OF the speak
ers, rast sea of human beings, all AMI
mated alike with an ardent attachment
to the glorious principles OF our Oons'''u,
tion--which are indentical with. those Of
the Wing pariy-and determined TO do
or die" in their support and triumphant
yindication.
1t was proud, glorious day, and a
sure precursor of the signal success OF The
Wings in August and November. With
perfect confidence, we assure our friends
abroad, that Indiana will be--nay, is
redeemed.
The Convention was addressed by the
Hon. Henry Lane. Horace P. Riddle,
ESQ.,, and the Hon. S. w. Parker. A
series of admirable resolutions were adop-
ted, approving CT Mr.. Clay's letter on
Annexation of Texas, and The leading
measures of the Wing party.
WING Mass MEETING AT WEST CHEs-
TER :--PHILADELPHIA, June 7th.-P. Nj.
The response given TO the nominations
Of The Baltimore Conventions yesterday
at Westminster, was one OF the most
gratifI ing character ever witnessed. The
number of Wings is believed TO have been
less than 10000 while near 1000 ladies
graced the meeting with their presence
IT was glorious gathering, and one
which West Chester will ever remember
with pride.

HINTS FOR MAY.

The unusual duration of the winter has
in the north, SO fai retarded spring work, as
to throw its various operations together and
render necessary a greater continuation of
time than usual. Farming operations musl
be planned with reference to this fact. and
the work first needed must be first perform
ed
Spring Wheat must be sown early or there
is little use in sowing it at all: the ground
should be clear, otherwise the weeds will
get the start of the slower terminating wheat
Barley and oats may be sown later
Where these crops are grown on lands infes-
ted with the thistle, "a bad practice by the
uav.) the sowing should be delayed until
the ground is warm and in fine condition,
that the check given the weeds by the last
ploughing may enable the seeds to germ-
mite and the plants get start Of the weeds
If this is done, the thistle will do little iniu-
~, comparatively TO the crop.
If your work docs crowd, do not plant
your corn unless your field is properly fitted
for that crop. Better not plant corn at all,
than to plant on exhausted, impcricctly pre-
pared land, and after all your labor, find your
crop a failure. On majority of our soils
30 bushels an acre will not pay the cost c.
cultivation. BY adding little mere expense
in manure and preparation, you may get from
sixty to eighty.
your soils are heavy clay, do not suffer
yourselves TO be tempted TO pillow them while
wet In doing this you may inlet an injury
to them, which it will require years to re-
move. In the facility of working at all times
soils inclining to be light have the advantage
of all others; but where clay prevails in cha
racter, the plough converts the wet surface
of the furrow slice, as we'll as the bottom o
the fuuow TO mortar; and till broken up o
pulverzed by frost or otherw sc, such soil i:
unfit for any crop.
If you SOW grass seeds with your sprin!
crops, put them on literally and they vii
succeed better if the roller is passed owe
them after sowing. S:intng the supply o
seeds is miserable policy. Don't forget t.
use plaster on your clover. Applied to new
| ly sown clover, it ensures it against falur
IN nearly all cases; and on well rooted plant
it adds greatly TO their wgor and their guam
tity. We have used it on peas with grea
is1ccess.
If when planting corn you put handft
of a mixture oftwoparts Of plaster, and on
part of ashes in the hill, ii will have goo
effect on the crop.
The garden must come IN for share {
your attention this month. There is an ide
quite prevalent among farmers, but mist;
Ken one, that work in the garden is throw
away. The vegetable garden is an impor
ant part OF the farm; the flower garden mu
be consigned % the wife and the daughter
and they will show their good sense and the
good taste in not allowing this TO be neglc

REMARKABLE PRESENCE OF MIND.-
The Norwak Conn Gazette relates an
incident which occurred in that town n few
evenings ago, exhibiting the most remark
able degree Of presence Of mind and cool
in,reepidity, in a child that we have ever
known. A company of lads, of ages from
about 8 to II and IA years, were amusing
themselves on skates, on what is known us
the old Triphammer Pond. One of the
younger of the company. son Of Milton
Durand, in the course of his sports, was car
ried into The water, and at depth, too, be-
yond his reach. The late of the poor lit
tie fellow seemed inevitable He sank
and rose, and no help appeared. The
first thought which occurred 20 his COM
panions was to thro him sled, belong
ing to one of the number, that he m ght
grasp it, and by their holding the string he
might be drawn out upon solid ice. The
application for the sled, hoacerer, was rcfu-
sed At this crisis son Of Mr.. Stiles Cur

This however, required time, and the ap

best. and determined TO put it into exeeu

CLAIMS OF HENRY CLAY FOR THE
PRESIDENCY.

The following cogcnt reasons why Henry
Cl1y ought not 10 be elected President o
the United States, arc given in a resolution
adopted at large and enthusiastic meeting
of the Democrats OF O.ange county, Yer
mont:
Because he is now in favor of a Nationa
Bank of the most odious kind, although he
formerly opposed National Bank of al,
kind
Because he has been on all sides of the
tariff question; at one time supporting higl
thrift so warmly that his friends denominaleo
him the ''Fathcr of the American System: >
anon, he got up the compromise act in which
ne abandoned even the principle of protec.
ton; and now since he has set himself III
the third time as a candidate for the Prcs
dency, he has taken a Janus-iaccd view o.
the tariff, holding out at the same time such
opinions to the different sections of the I'm
ion as seem best adapted 10 their particular
meridian.
Because. as VIM. Cost Johnson, of Mary.
land, warm friend of Mr.. Clay, is the au
thor ofthe project 10 assume by the General
Government, the payment of the state debts
| amounting to more than 100000, 0C0, anC
in recent letter TO his constituents. gave
assurance that his project was daily gaining
! strength and had many strong friends, there
is good reason 10 believe that one of those
strong friends is Henry Clay of Kentucky.
Because he is in favor of giving TO the
States, as price for their votes, the proceeds
of the sales of the public lands; when the
Government is in debt and the revenue de.
rived from the public lands and all Other
sources is insufficient TO meet It's expendi-
lures
Because he supported the bankrupt bill
and voted for it contlaryto the known wish
es of the freemen of Kentucky; thereby
bringing into existence an odious measure
and carving out in practice the old federal
doct.ine that the arm of the representative
is not TO be palsied by the Will Of his consti,
tuents.
Because when Secretary of State he in
vented the project of annexing Texas TO the
Union, and instructed our Minister at Mexi-
co, to stipulate for the Texan territory, the
payment of one million dollars.
Because he is a duelist; having been seve-
raj times on the field in single combat, and
frequently either given or received challen-
ges which were not carried into execution.
Because when Secretary of State, he chal-
lcnged John Randolph, Of the United States
Senate, to mortal combat, for words spoken
in debate; thereby disgracing the high sta
ton he himself occupied, and attempting TO
break down the freedom of speech.
Because when a member of the United
States Senate, he was frequently engaged in
bFawls and quarrels.
Because even since he arrived at old age
while acting as counsel at court in Ken
lucky, getting enraged at the opposing eoun-
sci, he attempted 10 do with his fist, what he
could not accomplish by argument; but he
would have received sound drubbing for
his insolence, if the timely interference of
friends had not prevented.
Because when the subject of amending
the constitution Of Kentucky, so as 10 do
away with involuntary seryitude, was under
