"Tacitus,' the Washington cores.
pendent Of the n. Y. True Sun, tells
the following anecdote:
When Mr.. Editor Greedy was here,
it is reported that he was followed by
a somewhat famous NJ. C. from the
West, and accused Of having asserted
tina, the members conduct was n dis
grace to the country. On Mr.. G's be-
ing charged with the authorship,
he frankly admitted it, and refused 10
rctract, because it was fact. The
NJ. c. after a moments pause, slapped
Mr.. e. on the back ard admitted is
truth! So much for the still small voice
of conscience.

DIscrssIoN on SiAyERY.-Thcrc is
an evident impulse in Kentucky TO dis
cass those questions como Gle! with the
subject Of Slavery. The Frankfort
Commonwealth says: THE iudica-
tons arc manifest that the friends and
opponents Of gradual, prospective en-
ancipation, desire to di:cuss the merits
of the subject before the country thro'
the press. We know no good reason
why the discussion should not proceed.
There arc many good, honest conscl-
entious, and patriotic citizens on both
sides of the questions

A BALriMoRsAN DROWNED. We regret to
learn from the Mobile Tribune that on the
night of the 10th inst, Capt Samuel H. Mar
shall, of the ship Powhattan, of Baltimore, ly-
ing in the bay, when going down in the schr'
Nimrod, for the purpose of bringing up his wife
and child to the city, fell overheard and was
drowned, although every excrtion was made to
save him. The night being very DARK it was
supposed that he was looking over the lee side
of the schooner, trying to make out his ship
and walked off the gangway, which was untor-
tunatcly left open. BY this distressing acct
dent, he has left wife and child, and widow
ed mother; all of whom were dependent upon
him for support. Capt, Marshall was native
of England, and was young man full of pro-
mise and universally beloved by those who
knew him. His body had not yet been re-
covered.

AMERICAN REPUBLICAN MEETING IN PHILA-
pgLpnIA. A very large meeting of American
Republicans was held ia Philadelphia on We'd
ncsday evening last, 1T the State house build
ings 1t is stated tina: the vestibule of lndspen-
dence Hall, the Common Pleas Court Room,
and that of the County Court, were filled to
overAowing- that there were thousands
who could not get into those roorls. General
Dearborn, Of Boston, was introduced to, and
addressed, the meeting. in the several rooms
addresses were also delivered by gentlemen of
Philadelphia. A series Of resolutions were IL
dOpted, among which were the following
Resolved, That if this country, instead of be-
ing a refuge for the poor and oppressed of ali
nations, is to become the common poor house
for all Europe, it is at least incumbent upon US,
to take measures for our own security and pro-
lection.
Resolved That we disdain all hostility and
unfriendliness towards foreigners as such; that
we respect the rights, which the Constitution
and laws secure to the adopted citizen, and that
the object Of the American party is to guard
against the foreigner now in Europe, and
whose rights our opponents would render pa
ramount to those Of American citizens, native
and adopted.
Resolved, Tnat while these evils render ne
cessary measures of self-preservaton and self
defence, there is no hope from either of the old
parties, since the party in the minority is always
without power, and the attempt of the ruling
party TO regulate tue foreign influence, would
be followed by the loss of foreign votes, and
the consequent loss of power, and that hence
n,l 81 81,
Democratic or Wing party, for the salvation os
the country from foreign dominion.
Resolved, That the people must themselves
rally for the rescue of the country, and sustain
the only measure BY which the desired reform
can be effected the immediate, thorough, and
universal organization OF great American par
ty, for the establishment and carrying out of
great American principles, and that the ques-
tionnow to be decided is, whether the Amerl-
can or Foreign party shall rule,
We heartily assent to these resolutions, The
naked question is presented, and must be decld-
ed, whether American citizens shall rule, or
the government be given up to the control of
foreigners. The decision of this important
point cannot be much longer postponed, and on
the issue will depend the continuance or over
throw of our free institutions. Americans have
been stigmatised by Boston editor as ''cow-
ards and pirates" and are constantly reviled by
foreign editors in other cities, including Balti-
more. Will they quietly submit to this inso-
lence: Will they have the felons and paupers
of Europe for task-masters? If they do, then
they will deserve their fate, and should be held
in contempt as unworthy of the land OF their
birth or adoption.

Miss JOSEPHINE BRAMsoN's CONCERT. The
concert of the "little queen ofthe Piano Forte

the most difficult. pieces of music, afforded the
audience the most unbounded delight When
the extreme youth of the artistic is taken into
consideration, she must be acknowledged, the
greatest musical prodigy of the age Miss
Bramson not only executes even difficult pas
s,pes with taste and expression, but also with
the utmost precision and perfection; she, in fact
gives no cause of complaint even to the most
f,st;d;ous critic. We should like to see repe
