4 strong citadel oil American c0nSefCdtSHt-
!. athing NOT TO be ,copfounded with The tim :
iid narrowness of the Old World legisla-
iation. Here, iconverva,ism, at the worst,
lis but an over.Jigilant care for ali The ,ap-
sproaches aud defences Of our Republican
I prosperity. Calhoun, 'slhe King tainer,"
lis The. cleares,, noblesl, and most un.
compromising champion Of Republican
! progress. He bears The .Stars'' in front
of the forward ranks, anil if kings aud
Kingdoms stand 10 the path, they must re-
cede. In his hand our flag will never
give back. Welher it covers The bonds of
worthless Mcleod. or shades the bor-
I'defs of Texas, or gives hope aud life 10 an
African colony, its way is onward, and
he Uould 6nd it easier to die than. stain
ITS folds by an unrepublican concesson.
Thisis felt in the cabinets Of Europe;
aud when he spoke, whether Of Texas or
our domestic i1sriiutions, their lofty brav-
ado of what they, would mot permit"
sunk TO soft whisper, and they only lis
ped it was .'objeclionable."
Nor isit the manly craftsmanship Of Clay
10 make concessions, thoughssome few of
his partisans are ready enough 10 do it for
him, but his chief desire is to stay at home
and watch heedfully the good in posses.
s!on., He. studies the eSperience.of.thc
past, and brings its rules 10 the protection
of the present. Calhoun would venture
farther, and trusting still more largely 10
principles thin 10 experience, would give
wider scope, aud more .unshackled ener-
gy, to the hopes Of the future. We.want
them boil in the Senate. Their parties
need them for leaders, the country needs
them there TO balance each. other, aud
Republicanism needs them for examples.

Me,o Hampshire.-Il is understood that
the Governor of this State will 6ll the va.
caucy in the U. S. Senale caused by the
resignation of Mr.. Woodbury., with the
Hon. franklin II. Pierce, gentleman
who has heretofore occupied the position
with distinguished ability. MIR. Pierce is
a man of superior talents-a thorogoing
Free Trader, and on every other impor.
tant subject sound as any other SyuIhern
| Republican could wish. The mantle Of
Woodbury. will have fallen on worthy
shoulders; should Mr.. P. be induced 10
|aceept il. He resigned his seat in Con-
.sress some years since, owing to Tile de-
1rangement Of his private affairs, which
we have since learnt arc in good coDdi-
l,ion.-Patriot, 7th inst.
| SidrYtaad Eisclton.-As far as heard
from the Wings have elected 26, and the
Democrats So delegates. There are YET
ITO bo heard from FIVE counties; four of
which; viz: st. Nlafy's, Somerset, Wor-
I.cester, and Dorchester, are decidedly
| WEhig; aud are entitled TO send Is Dele
eateS;N (which, added 10 the 26 Wings al
Ieady chosen, will make Al. OF just one
half. Of The whole number. The remain
ling county, Anle AruG]el, is doubtful. If
! il be carried by t6e>Democra,s, its s dele
gales; added to the 36already chosen, will
make the number of tlIe~pariy in the
Legislature, also al, or one half of the
whole. Should the Wings, however,
have chosen one or more Delegates in
Auue Arundel, the number thus chosen
will be the Whig majority in tho House OF
Delegates. Pretty close work this.
