VIRGINIA ERECTl GLORY E
NOUGB FOR ONE DAYM

Sufficient returns have been received
to enable Us to say that Virginia, the
mother Of States, and Statesmen, and
the birth place of Washington and JET
ferson, has been redeemed end disen-
thralled from the rule Of Whiggery.-
The smoke Of the battlefield has disap-
peared, and we can, and do say, with
proud satisfaction Of the land which
gave US birth, that the last ligament that
bound her to the car of the monster,
called Whiggery, has been SNAPPED as
sunder; and she now stands the most
honored among the gallant fifteen. who
cast their votes for Young Hickory.
But there is sorrow mingled with the
shout of joy which falls upon our ear
We have been victorious-we have
swept almost every thing like opposi-
ton before us-but alas! the bones Of
the Apostle Of Democracy, the immor-
tai jefferson, slumber in a disaffected
district. Although the promising Young
Leake has won his spurs, (and gallant
ly may he wear them, in the Congress
sional district, yet, Albems-le. the
grave of Jefferson, remains in,he hands
of the enemy. W. imagine that Monti-
cello would be a glorious platform upon
which the Democracy might meet, and
swear upon his grave, as he did upor
the alter of the living God, eternal hos.
tility to every form of tyranny over the
mind Of man, One more effortsnd hi:
last resting place may be rescued froz
the hands of the Turk and the infa4.

WAR WITH MEXICO.

Little doubt now remains Of .Me1ico's
having declared war against the United
States. The ship Creole, an American
vessel, was in one of the Mexican ports
when news was received of this move,
when she slipped her cables and made
for the United States, fearful that she
would be captured and her cargo con-
fscated.
When we remember the correspond
guce between that Government and our
Minister, only a few days ago, we are
prepared to believe this rumor correct
ENGLAND, we believe, as well as Next
CO, is operating in this matter; but our
Government, we hope, is prepared fol-
every emergency. From the cores
pendent of the N. Y. Herrld, We take
the following:-
"There is, l believe, q very warlik'
feeling in the cabinet. The Presiden
and his cabinet are undoubtedly deter
mined to maintain the high ground the,
have taken, and which has been hither
to maintained by this country. Mr.
BrcHANAN is said to be framing an elab
crate and forcible restatement of the A
marican title, in which the tone Of tn,
inaugural will be fully maintained, an

Ma. MrNoK: 1t is high time that we
were making some arrangements ABOUT
the selection Of cur candidates fer Inc
Convention. l would suggest TO our
fellow-citizens, that Monday 2nd day
of June, would be a very convenient
and proper time for that business. 1t Is
the first day of the County Court, and
for this reason l think that a meeting on
that day would be better and much more
generally attended. And it will readily
occur to every me-, how important it is
that we should have a meeting upon
this occasion, attended by citizens from
every part Of the county.
We should select one upon whom we
can concentrate our undivided support
Let US all meet together on the day pro-
posed, and decide who that man may be

made, energy will be the only requisite
TO ensure success. CALUMET.

DRAWING oUrA NEEDLE BY MAGNET.
A colored woman, at Frankfort, KY.
ran neelle in the fleshy part of the
palm some months ago. Last week
Mr.. hn Goodman, 10 whom the we
man belonged knowing the needle would
not remain stationary, thatit would pro-
duce supparation and gradually move
from its imbedment, it struck him that
it might be attracted 10 the surlance or
skin, and he produced magnet and
applied il to the hand. Soon a sensa-
ton of pain was produced, and three
da IS after the needle made its appear
ance just under the skin, when it was
easily extracted.

treated with same respect; and it was on

adjourned AS the party finished their
dinner, judge Dolly rose from the table
and in solemn manner addressed the
