The Nashville Loco-foco paper assumes that
President Polk is still al the head of his good
aud fas, friends, the 54---40ies. What think
you, Mr. Snooks of such an assertion! Rather
doubtful we think The Ohio State Journal
avows that Mr. Hannegan, in recent conver.
saion in mixed company, made the following
statemeni:---
"Mr Polk is a greater traitor than ever John
Tyler was, His reachery to the democratic
party is ten thousand times more base, infa-
nous, and inexcusabIe, than that Of John Tyler
was TO the Wings! He is utterly unworthy Of
confidence! The truth is not in him, and he
can never, never again secure the support OF
any considerable portion of the Democratic
party! The morning after Mr.. Haywood
made his speech in the Senate, and made the
assevera,ions which ] denied, the President
sent fer me- Ii was his own voluntary act
The interview was unsolicited on my part He
then declared 10 me, most soemnly and une.
quivocally ,ha, Mr.. Haywood had no authority
whatever for the declarations he made---lhai
they were entirely gra,uitous, unjust and un.
founded. that he ,rould suffer has right arm to
fall from its socket, has hand TO be uithered, be-
fore he would consent to Treaty on the 49th
parallel, or on any line short of 510 40'!!!"

What They say of Him.

The London Morning Chronicle, in an ari-
Gle relative TO the settlement of the Oregon dis
pute, speaks of Mr. Polk as follows:
The American government has certainly been
dislodged from its over-staiements of its early
claims. The Presidents speech is read back
wards. The President himself has cried pec.
caUt. | he has moi done this in direc, straight.
forward manner. he has done so by the sub,er.
iUges that he has had to resort TO. He ba,
asked the advice of The Senate and, by the an.
pearance Of taking counsel from that body, shift
ed upon its shoulders the responsibility of his
own inaugural extravaganza. The smallest man
IN all America is President Polk The rump
of the war party look upon him with contempt
as renegade the true pairiols-lhe advocates
Of peace. .despise him as an ohs,ructionis,.-

The Ladies' Fair,
OF MERCER COUNTY.

On Thursday, Angus, g. at The Mansion
House in Stroudsburg. The public have been
sppFized of lis twofod objects--to reduce a
debt, aud TO make Improvements in and abou,
the Church. Il has been ,he fashion for seve-
raj years, in cities and large towns, to get up
Fairs for various objec,s, ba, especially for OBJ.
Jects like the one before US. The way the
thing is done is as follows: The ladies' make
up great many useful things, fancy articles,
&c, which we cannot attempt TO name over
and then they call OF The gentlemen TO hand
OUT the depositeS; and with the funds thus col
lected, purchase is made Of refreshments for
The Fair, and an additional supply of rare and
curious fancy articles all which are exposed
TO sale on The day appointed. Such is Fair
As we said before, Fairs have been the order
oi The day for long time, in large places
New York, Phladelphis, Easton, &c.,-and
now. for the first time, we are TO have one in
our quiet retired Town, away back of The Blue
Mountains here. Well. for all that. il is our
opinion that the ladies will fetch on, something
worth looking al; something pretty near equal
to what has been done in almost any other
place whatever; and if our favorable opinion is
'hooghi 10 be rather exiravagant, all the favors
we ask. or the ladies either, is that all who
Think so, will be on The spo, next Thursday
sud Judge Tor themselves But stop: we lake
that back, al leas, so fat as we have taken upon
us TO speak in The name Of our fair friends
They do ask other favor. than the mere looking
IN upon their display OF nice and attractive
things-favors of a more tangible and practical
nature, and which may be turned 10 some sub.
sianial account; and We will no, allow our.
selves TO think for one moment that they will
be disappointed in their reasonable expec.a
tions.
N. B.-We are requested TO stale, that should

1gexicO.-.A Sad Picture.

The following is an extract of letter dated
June 29b, from the city Of Mexico:
1t is difficult 10 lorsee how The unhappy po-
liicaI relations OF this country will deselope
themselves. The position of The Republic is
extremely gloomy. The army which fought
on the Rio Bravo being virtually disbandcd, The
whole North is open 10 the North Americans,
who, we understand, already extend themselves
considerably, and intend proceeding as far as
Monterey, whence II will be easy to advance
further.
The South and West coast is in stale of
revolt which has spread as far as Gaudaaiara;
Vera Cruz and Tampico are blockaded, every
where apprehension Of new pronunciamcnlo.;
and there is no doubt but that there is q good
deal OF underhand maneusring in favor OF San
ia Anna. Government seems al a loss what
10 do.
Congress has elected Paredes President, and
Bravo Vice President, and as soon as The later
arrives from Vera Cruz, The former will start
a, the head OF the troops. But it is believed
before these see The enemy, they will declare
agaius, the Government. aud on the other hand,
we cannot conceive where the means for the
prosecution Of the war TO come from.
There seems 10 be no salvation except by
making peace d, once, and then adopting sys-
lem altogether The reverse Of The existing one,
liberalin every respect by which perhaps the
Republic may be saved from total dismember-
meni.
Under such melancholy circumstances the
blockade has as ye, produced nothing but a
mere nominal enhancement of the prices Of
goods. The demand, perceplible at first, has
entirely subsided There is not the least spec
ulalion. and nothing is purchased but what is
absolutely needed On The other hand, sup
plies on the whole are insignificant
The discouragemeni is increased BY The CHI
sis arising out of The suspension Of payments by
Government, and an extraordinary scarcity Of
money. There have been several considerable
failures, and our condition is aggravated by the
destruction Of confidence In many cases un-
doubted paper could not be discounted at 3
per cent.

The Richmond Whig, after noticing The de.

Polk touching the Tariff of / s42, adds The fol.
lowing, which will be recolected by mos, oI
our readers:
1--WE refer 10 The fact, that the predecessors
of The editors Of the Union, Messrs Blair and
Riyes, issued prospectus in ls44, for cam
paign paper, Of which prospectus there were lwc
editions, (as there were probably of The paper
also,) ore intended for the South another for The
North In the copy of the prospectus intended
for southern circulation, and franked by Roberl
J. Walker. and other southern members, the
Tariff Of 1912 is pronounced dishonest, fraud
uleni, and oppressive while in those sent to
Pennsylvania, under The frank of B A. Bidack

in other respects, the TWO being exactly alike y
In looking back upon that siupendous and
yet obvious fraud-so obvious lha, few of our
people could have been deceived by it, except
such as were willing 10 be deceived lone can
not but feel tha, those who could thus embrace
gross and absurd delnsion, deserve TO suffer
for it,
We did then, and shall do now, whatever we
can to remedy The mischefs brough, upon the

inexcusable falsehood and are about 10 suffer

IRELAND.

There is not any news of Importance from
Ireland since the sailing of the Cambria. Some
of those horrid murders, which have hitherto
made that country kind of Acaldema, have
been lately perpetrated in the country of Cavan.
We learn that popular outbreak took place at
Banagher on the 2Sth ult., ,and that an attack ON
the Government provision depot was meditated.
but owing to the salutary influence of Roman
Catholic clergyman, the Rev. Mr. Walsh, of Lus-
magh, the peasantry were induced to return
quietly to their homes
Orders have been received at the various Gus
tom Houses in Ireland to admit grain for consump-
tion, according to the rate of duties provided by
the new law.
The new Ministry is regarded by the Radical
Press of Ireland as being doomed to short exs-
tence. In the opinion of many of that party, it
is thought the late Premier's farewell speech
has destroyed the last shred of popularity wli;ch
Whiggery could lay claim to in this country; and
Liberals of all shades now seem to regard Sir.
