The Southern Reformer speaking of q
Texas and Polk meeting recently held in
Wilkinson, after noticing the change OF
dozen or so deirious anti-tariffites, who
from the support Of the Wing cause have
unceremoniously Polked thems elves into
the democratic ranks, uses the following
language:
"The speeches were we'll received,
and we doubt not this meeting has given
to US an increase in numbers which will
spread wide the circlng arm of the de,
mocracy of Wilkinson. A friend writes
US tina: Polk and Dallas will receive a
larger vote in Wilkinson than has ever
been given by her to any democratic can
didate."
"The speeches were we'll received"
and, we are told, were tolerably fair
specimens of defamation, at that. " The
circling arm Of the democracy Of Wilkin-
son" may possibly reach around and en-
brace fifteen or twenty seceders from the
Wing ranks. But, bless your soul, Mr..
Reformer, if your correspondent had only
told you the whole truth, you would have
known that the Wing cause in old Will
klnson has been strengthened by the
withdrawal Of these very men. They
were milestone around its neck any
how, and now, since that dead weight has
been removed, the slumbering lion q
whlggery has reused from his .ethargy
and his roaring makes the faint hearts
who have wandered from our camp wish
themselye safe back again. All the
changes in Wilkinson will not affect the
Clay majority in that county twenty
votes, Old Wilkinson is sure Tor Henry
Clay by five hundred majority, notwith
standing locofoco Dragging. The add
ton Of twenty inches 10 "the crcIing
ARM OF the democracy Of that county,
will not enable Polk to carry this state by
three thousand votes.
We assure the Wings of the state that
all is right in this section--that Clay ex-
cites as much enthusiasm as The lament
cd Harrison did in 40, and if they will
only do their duty like zoe wW do ours, a
Clay majority Of thousands will be the
glorious result.

SUNK ny STRIKING AN ICEBERG The 10.
cofoco privateer, 4" Immediate dnneration,' 81
Captain Polk, met with a mos. dismal fate
on the LIST instant. She left moorings nj
New Orleans, at 10 o'clock, A. NJ, for
IerdS, with all sails set, and crew in good
health and spirits, but dreadful to relate,
at about o'clock, p. NJ, she struck the

ime threatening all @fs of her bnild

foremost, Instantly. All on boardjper.

The Immediate Anneration" was
built by Capt, Tyler, of Washington City,
at the "White House Ship Yard" and
intended expressly by him to run in the
Texan trade She was constructed with
view to great speed, and had "long,
low, black, piratical looking appearance"
She was built Of fral materials and only
intended to last one season. By some
means or other, Captain Polk had gotten
possession Of her, and refused to give
her up. Capt. Tyler Immediately insti,
lu'ed suit against him, for recovery, in
the High Court of the People. In the
meantime, Capt. Polk had made several
profitable trips with her, and intended
running the whole season, when the de-
plorable accident narrated above, forever
stopped his earthly career.

CHANGE CHANGE An old citizen of this

mature reflection, he had changed his politics
and was now going, heart and soul, for .ne
great Western Statesman. The gentleman to

twenty years ago, and from that tine to this,
has been warm supporter of all democratic
principles Here is substantial change

mounted repudiator spoutng for the i'm
mediate annexation of Texas, and the
assumption Of her national debt, at the
same time that he utterly abjures the
idea Of paying the debts of his own
state. 1t looks so consistent.
We like to hear loco abuse the Wings
for passing the bankrupt law, asserting
that they thereby violated the obligations
Of contracts, and Immediately commence
rabld argument in favor of instant an
nexation. 1t shows him TO possess such
an exalted opinion of the solemn obliga-
tons Of treaties he was aware that
treaties between friendly nations could
not be wantonly violated without shame
and disgrace, and is likewise so very con-
sistent.
We like to hear loco charge the
Wings with being in favor of the as
sumption Of State debts by the General
Government--avow his deadly and in.
extnguishable hostility to such mea-
sure, and then declare himself in favsr
of assuming the liabilities OF foreign
country. 1t looks so consistent.
We like TO see man who owns two
or three hundred thousand acres Of Tex
as lands, change his political principles
on account Of Mr.. Clay's opposition to
annexation, desert his former friends,
and commence traversing the country TO
persuade the people to that measure. 1t
looks so disn,erested and patriotic.

trates the stiest and hardest leather if it has been
twenty years in use; and il it tears easily with the
fingers it impars at strength that is utter "
incredible until seen. 1t becomes like new leather,
in all respects, with delightful softness and polish,
and makes all leather completely and perfectly i'm
pervious to INDEPENDENTLY boots, Shoes carr-
