BISHOP CHASE INJURED.

The Bedford (Pa.) Inquirer states that " on
Tuesday the mail stage was upset about six miles
and half east Of Bedford, and number of the
passengers more or less injured. Bishop Chase
of Illinois, was one Of the principal sufferers He
had two ribs broken, and was otherwise consider
ably bruised. We are happy to have it in our
power to state, that his medical attendants do not
consider him dangerously wounded, and that tn ere
is no doubt whatever Of his recovery"

CONSISTENCY.

The Native party often ridcules the supposed
ignorance of foreigners, and urges that reason
why they should be debarred from political prvi-
ieges, and yet one of their organs (the Philadel-

it will prevent the evil of dlscord, which it is
attempting TO foment How absurd, for example,

with the ominous title of Distant Thunder"

1.-The two following articles, with aDrrespond

We will not specify the papers, or republish
the articles, which the s. National Intelligencer''
is pleased to enblazon forth but we have no idea
that these organs of the democratic party have
any desire to lash the waves into tempest
They will see the danger.
As for " those who now stand at the helm of
the ship of state" they defy all the tempests
which may whistle around its head. They stand
upon the principles which they were elected
They intend to do their duty. They trust them
selves to the great masses of free and enlighen-

"duplicty upon the Tariff question" We hard
