A Blackleg, named John Pierce, passing
through Woodstock the other day, bought a
hat of me. (Which had just bought at Head
Quarters for So, and gave in payment $50
bill. 1 called on merchant near by who
changed the note for me, and the Blackleg ha-
wing got his $42 change, went his way. The
next day the merchant discovered the note to
be counterfeit, and called upon me, who was
compelled forthwith to borrow $50 of another
friend to redeem it with; but on turning te
search fer the Blackleg he had left town. Sc
that the note was useless on my hands. The
question is what did lose2

as follows
An invasion (of MexicO) from differ

aiming al the City Of Mexico, has been

army has, it is said, given il. as his opin-
ion that a force of hundred thousand

ders TO take possession of St. Francisco

against all opposition.

FOR CANAL COMMISSIONER.
JAMES We. POW Err.
presidency and vice Presidency
OF MERCER COUNTY.

We see indications In various quarters
of desire on the part Of the Wing party
TO bring out Gen. WINFIELD ScoTT for
the next Presidency, and know of no man
in the nation to whom We would give a
more ready and cordial support. Firm
in principle, moderate as politician, and
patriotic in sentiment and in action, he is
precisely the man for the Wings, for the
crisis, and for the country.
II might perhaps be premature for the
Wings 10 designate their candidate thus
early, but there can be no improprlety in
discussing the merits and availability of
men, and to notice the indications of pub
lie sentiment in favor of one or another
among those who stand most prominent.
With regard 10 the Vice Presidency
but little has been SAID as vet Nor is ii
our intention TO agilate that question at
this time; but it may not be out of place
TO mention in connexion with what we
have said above, that the Hon. ANDREW
STEWART is spoken of by some of our
best men as a suitable person for the Sec
ond Office in the nation. He is every
where known as plain, sound, practical
man, and would in the opinion Of many
not only be strong candidate, but make
a most excellent presiding officer when
elected.

PAY of Seamcu.

An eastern paper says there is at pres
ent a great scarcity of seamen, and that il
our whole naval force is TO be fitted out.
the Government VIII have to increase the
inducements to enlist. At present nc
bounty is offered, and but three months
pay given to the men in advance. The
latter. we believe, is Sl2 per month, and
amounts 10 the enormous sum of $50,
which in ninety-nine cases out of hun
dred goes to pay up old scores with
Jacks last landlord. We think justice
demands that the pay Of members of Con-
gress and ofseamen and soldiers should be
a little more equalized than 1t is at pres
ent.
