OF It's most glazing lnposltlons (mposltions in every
sense) are upon iron and iron manufactures. We see
no other way than TO sacrifice Pennsylvania, accord

Hampshire, and the great West, may be relied upon.
And IN the casting OF Pennsylvania, like Jonah from

we believe she will fight 1t out upon the tariff, at
the hazard OF accommodation from the party. We
are 10 have Mr.. Calhoun back again, and his pre-

to achieve the revenue standard upon revenue prn-

Hewitts oratorio Of "Jephtha" was repeated to a

last night. Mr.. Pierre LIE Cerc with the assent of
Mr. Elliott, u S. sub-agent tor the tribe), having
