we find in the State Register, explains itself,
Mr.. A. is still an applicant for the Office of L. 5,
district attorney for Illinois, Notwithstanding the
rcccut appointment Of Mr.. Skinner to that office,
and for reasons that deserve the attention Of the
democratic party, 1t is due, however, to say here
that not even the walmesi friend of Mr.. Arnold
has word to say against Mr. Skinner, either
personally or politically. lie is conceded to be
an able lawyer, a good democrat, and gentle
man highly esteemed by all who know him.
The time and manner Of his appointment. alone

The American Mechanic,

Whatever may be the 'pomp, glory
and circumstance Of the great men of the
world-whatever may be the dazzling
pageantry of high liie-the glitter Of fash
ionable society, and splendid misery of
those who believe that those who think
must govern those who toll ) there is no
situation more envable than that of the
plain American mechanic--free for every
thing for which Heaven designed him !;
untrammeled in his opinions, and left TO
the guidance Of his own genius, he walks
in the full stature of a man. Earning with
his own hands the means by which he
supports himself; protected by govern
ment which, like the sun, sheds its light,
its fostering care upon all-who shall
gainsay his right 10 enjoy the fruits of his
labor in the way which best pleases him !
Under our government. prudence, indus
try and economy are sure to meet with
their reward and it should be remem-
bered by every mechanic, that the road to
preferment and official dignity is open to
every one. All that people want in those
that serve them is fidelity and patriotism
truth to the Constitution. and intell-
gence enough TO perform their duty
How much, then, it behooves the Amer
lean mechanic to make himself worthy of
the highest honor that the people can
confer. 1t is the duty Of every American
to render himself competent to act on all
occasions as becomes an American citizen.
Intelligence, education and study, are
within the reach Of every human being.

and sought in public manner this place from
Mr.. Polk, he would have found no competitor in
me.
But principle, or usage Of some Importance
to the Democratic party is to be settled in this
matter, and my friends who have brought me for
ward a candidate, insist upon vindicaton Of
that principle in this particular instance. The
principal is this, that in appointments affecting
the state at large Senators, and the delegation gen.
orally, have right to be consulted, and that ap-
pointments which may have been procured from
Mr.. Tyler without their being consulted, where
no vacancy exists, on the eve of the Inauguration
Of MIR. Polk, and especially when made without
giving an opportunity for the wishes Of the Rep
resentalives Of the State Congress and the par
ty generally to be advised, are indicate and inn
proper, and it is believed, that they neither will
nor ought TO be recognised by the Democratic
party, as controlling the action of the President
elect; and my friends insist that shall take no
step recognizing the propriety Of an appointment,
thus procured, and thereby sanctoning the action
OF those who thus anticipate and loresall MIR.
Polk IN such changes and appointments as he NAV
think the public interest may require. III should
decline, the persons who think thus, will bring
forward some other candidate, against this late an
poiniee. Duty, therefore, to the kind friends who
have recommended me- some Of whom generous
iy declined IN my iavor. VIII compel me to remain
a candidate until either they withdraw their re-
commentator, or a decision shall have been
made upon it by the President elect. IF these
friends think my being n candidate endangers in
the sishtos, degree the harmony ofthe party, they
are not only at liberty but i, is my earnest desire
that they will at once withdraw their recommen-
dation. | am in their hands, quite willing to re-
tire, soon as they communicate such wish to me.
BELIEVING the position | have assumed in this
matter is correct, and that it is in consonance
with the wishes and opinions of the great mass of
the Democratic party, shall await the course Of
events with no other solcitude than sincere de-
sire, that such course will be pursued, as the
best interests of the party require Hoping tina.
the reasons which compel me TO remain candi-
date, will be satisfactory both to yourself and the
Democratic party generally,
subscribe myself very respectfully

In an Address delivered before the Cal
edonia (Vt.) Agricultural Society by Hen
ry Stevens, Esq, in which the importance
of ah'ording suitable encouragement to do
mestic manufactures is very forciby set
forth, he says 1--WE find in the Amcri-
can Annals, an account of the anniversary
of society for encouraging industry,
held 1853, on which occasion Boston
Common presented novel sight. In the
afternoon about 800 young female spin.
ers, decently dressed, appeared on the
common, with their spinning wheels, the
wheels were regularly set in three rows,
aud a female was seated at each wheel ;
the weavcrs also appeared clearly dressed,
in garments of their own weaving. One
of them, working a loom ON a stage, was
carried on mems shoulders attended with
music; an immense number Of spectators
were present at this interesting spectacle.
The Rev. DR.. Cooper preached a dis
course, and a collection was made for til.
benefit Of the institution. Ladies of Boston
whring three hundred spinning wheels
These were afterwards the ma,rons who
refused British tea, and who never saw q
piano. Wonder if a thousand delicate la.
dies could not now he seen in the city, a,
their pianos, where one old fashioned ro-
sy damse could be found at the healthy
exercise of the spinning wheel -
Mr.. Stevens adds-"The woman who
manufactures for her own household, ant
one piece of goods to sell, does more tc
retain the solid coin in our State, than al
the banks or the greatest iinanciers."

many changes as there are different emo
lions in the soul. Yet blind man may
be as good Judge of physiognomy as he
that can see /; for whoever shuts his eyes

exact idea of the countenance. And as

Sure Rond 10 Independence.

If more wealth and greater individual
fortunes have been made in our cities than
in the country, we cannot get rid of the
fact that from the first settlement of the
country the farmers occupation has been
the surest road to independence. If we
turn back TO the men who have cut down
the forest Of New England within the last
hundred years, where shall we find in
history more successful, more intelll-
gent, more independent and high-souIed
race ! In the soil aud the growth upon
it have they found every thing; the use
of their own hands upon the means fur
nished them has made them whatever they
have been. Few of the original settlers
commenced with means sufficient to pay
for the lot of land which they first occu.
pied; yet of these comparatively few fail
ed IN their first enterprise. AT the close
of The war Of the revolution many town
ships of n. Hampshire and Vernon, were
indebted for their first Improvements to
young men who as soldiers of the war
had suffered great privations and hard
ships. That the great body of such men
should after gaining their liberties, settle
down in successful life, and become men
OF property and influence as the effect Of
their own labors, is honorable to human
nature.
As instances Of the almost invariabe
success of farmers, we might point to
scores of the heads of families who have
been gathered to their fathers in the town
where we live. In an adjacent town and
its neighborhood up the river eight men
of one generation, all Of the same name,
and we believe all originating from one
family, succeeded in clearing as many
valuable farms and all of them in gaining
each property equal in value of from
five TO fifty thousand dollars. Taking the
whole group of that generation together,
i, would seem that the prudence and care
of the farmer might almost leave him to
command his own destiny. What other
occupation in this world of uncertainty
can sotwell assure success as tha, of the
persevering farmer Farm. Monthly
