| GEN. ScoTT.-The Gen. SCoTT who il.
luslrated the science as well as the superior
ity of the American arms, at Chippewa, and
who rushed impetuously, perhaps prematurely
into action at Lundy's Lane, is not the Gen.
ScorT who now caviIs and complains. The
same man they are but in spirit how unlike !
The one was full of the sap and vigor of
early and generous manhood 1.-THE other is
tanned down TO the cool calculation and
craft of selfish age. The one had name
10 win, and burned to distinguish himself
and his country alike,--the other has the
Presidency in prospect, and pants for nc
thing but the possession and dispensation of
power and patronage. Quoth the spirit of
Chippewa and Bridgewater, co and eclipse
in age the achievments of youth ;--but,
whispers the considerate politician, this war
is unpopular with many;--the Liberty folks
denounce it;--New England will none of it;
the money and mercantile interests, 10
considerable extent, condemn it; and not a
few of the Wing partisan leaders and presses
do likewise STAY, and nurse your chances
for nomination. In greater quandary was
not even good Launcelot Gobbo, when he
debated the expediency of running away
from his master, the Jew. But the craft of
the politician prevails, and the General invites
and gets dspensation from the field of
arms, and an opportunity to remain in the
field Of politics. Such is the plain result,
in homely mother English, of the matter;
and SO will it be regarded by the country

An eccentric English divine, who called
upon to prefom the funeral service of dead
debtor. After the ceremony was performed,
and the corse was on its way to the church
yard, the sheriff made descent upon the
body, and attached it for debt, as by the
then law of England he had power to do.
"Move on! said the priest.
"Stop!' shouted the sheriff.
" Move onm exclaimed the priest again.
"This body is mine'' said the sheriff.
"This body is God's!" roared the priest.
"ln the kings name command you to
lower the cofin!" exclaimed the sheriff.
"Bury the man!'' shouted the infuriated
priest, " and if the sheriff says three words,
take him up and bury him too! Ive read

THE MoRMoNs,---We have reports that
fresh disturbances had broken out in Nauvoo;
the anti-Mormons having resorted to violent
measures for the immediate expulsion of tho
remaining Mormons. The reported iuten-
ton to destroy the temple is repeated. The
ST. Louis papers of the 18th say that cannon
shots were heard ON the 18th, on board
steamboat coming from Nauvoo. A slip
from the Hancock Eagle Office, dated June
llth, states that an outbreak would most un-
doubtedly occur.

tribute of honor to the ingenuity and enter

7their path is one Of true glory, and il !.
their own fault if it does not lead them tc
the highest posts Of honor and renown."
".They are the palace builders of the
world; not a stick is hewn, not stone il
shaped, in all the lordly dwellings, of the
rich, that does not owe its beauty aud fitness
to the mechanics skill; the towering spires
that raise their giddy heights among the
clouds, depend upon the mechanics art and
strength for their symmetry, beauty, and fair
proportion; there is no article of comfort OF
pleasure but what bears the impress of their
handwork. How exalted is their calling
how sublime is their vocation! Who dares
TO sneer at such fraternity of honorable
men-who dares 10 cast odium upon such a
patriotic race? Their path is one of true
glory, and it is their own fault il it does not
lead them 10 the highest posts Of honor and
renown."
We find the above in the New York
Farmer and Mechanic 1t is rare spec-
men of the way in which society attempts to
fatter those whom il wrongs. First swindle
man and then pat him on the back and tell
him he is splendid fellow, great character!
In the same way, society reduces the reward
Of labor to the lowest possible rate, sub
jects il 10 the omnipotence of capital, and
puts the workman in such a social position
that every upstart who wears good clothes
and gets his living by his wits can look down
upon him with contemplate sense of
superiority, shuts him and his out from
means of education and reinement,-and
then shouts in his ears that his calling is
exalted, his vocation sublime! That con-
victon must be great consolation to man
whose unremttng toll can hardly bring the
week around, and who is haunted by ankle
ties and fears from morning TO night! The
path of such man may be one ofrue glory,
but how does that contribute TO the daily
bread ofhis children, or prevent reduction
of his precarious wages from driving him to
despair? Let us have the reality first and

labor is socially degraded and plundered, lei
US not insul, the victims of our advancing
civilization by declaimng with much " elo-
quence" that they are glorious heroes, and
ought to be the happest of men. Make
society such that useful industry will really
be badge of honor and not of ofdisgrace, be-
fore you enlarge in ambitious paragraphs
upon its essential dignity; give to mechanics
and productive laborers of all kinds their un-
deniable rights as men and as useful mem
bers of society, but do not attempt to feed
starving men with perfumed lies even if they
are served up in gilt platters. Take measures
to make labor regarded as really honorable
and then it will not be necessary to insist so
zealously upon the fact, in order to have the
recipients of the honor aware Of 1.-THE

ECCENTRIC CHARAoTERs.--The Duke of
York, once on visit 10 an asylum for tho
insane, saw two men who appeared more
rational than the others. He stopped and
asked them why they were there2 "Why,

one," answered one of the men. "We are
poor and Insignificant persons, so they called
US crazy. If we were rich enough they
would call us eccentric characters, and let
us go where we pleased"

From the Newry Examiner, ian Irish paper.

HE tHhEE fhEACfE ERO.
There are three preachers ever preaching,
Each with eloquence and power; a. ,a
One is old, with locks Of white,
Skinny as an anchorite '-l
E And he breaches every hour
With shTili and frantic voice,
And bigot's fiery scorn:-
g Backward, ye presumptuous nations;
Man to misery is born!
Born to drudge, ard sweat and suffer-
Born to labor. and to pray;
Priests and Kings and Gods vicegerents,
Man must worship and obey.
Backward, ye presumptuous nations
Back !-be humble, and obey"
The second is mildor preacher;
Soft he talks as if he sung;
Sleek and sothful is his look,
And his words as from book,
Issue glibly from the tongue.
With an air Of sell. content,
High he lifts his fair white hands:--
I" Stand ye still, ye restless nations;
And be happy, all ye lands!
Earth was ms de by One Almighty,
And to meddle is to mar;
Change is rash and ever was so;
We are happy swe are;
Stand ye still, ye restless nations,
And be happy as ye are"
Mightlet Is the younger preacneri
Genius flashes from his eyes:
And the crowds who hear his voice,
Give him, while their souls rejoice,
Throbbing bosoms for replies.
Awod they listen, yet elated,
While his stirring accents fall:
"Forward! ye deluded nations,
Progress is the rule Of all;-
Man was made for heartful effort;
Tyranny has crushed him long,
He shall march from good to better,
Nor be patient under wrong
Forward! ye awakened nations,
And do battle with the wrong.
"Standing still is childish folly,
Going backward is a crime;-
None shall patiently endure
Any i'll that he can cure;
Onward! keep the march of time;
Onward, while wrong remains
To be conquered by the right;
While Oppression lifts finger
To affront us by his might;
While an error clouds the reason;
While a sorrow gnaws the heart;
While a slave awaits his freedom,
Action is the wise mans part:-
Forward! ye awakened nations!
Action is the Peoples part"
" Onward! there are ills TO conquer,
Ills tnat on yourselves you've brought;
There is wisdom to discern,
There Is temperance to learn,
And enfranchsement for thought.
Hopeless Poverty and Toll
May be conquered, if you try;
Vice and Wretchedness and Famine,
Give Benefcence the lie.
Onward! onward and subdue them!
Root them out, their day has passed,
Goodness is alone immortal;
Evil was not made to last.
Forward, ye awakened people,
And your sorrow shall not last"
And the preaching of this preacher
Stirs the pulses of tho world.
Tyranny has curbed ts'prido;
Errors that were deifed,
Into darkness have been hurled;
Slavery and Liberty,
And .he Wrong and Right have met,
To decide their ancient quarrel.
Onward preacher; onward yet!
There are pens to tell your progress,
There are eyes that pine to read,
There are hearts that burn TO aid you,
There are arms in hour of need
Onward, preacher! Onward, nations!
WILL must ripen into DEED,

but created no more sensation than Ham
ilton shipplaster. The 9th Of June, (says
the Plaindealer,) had long been set apart
and announced in the papers as the day for
general rally of the faithful hereabouts,
and we expected to see grand demonstra-
ton. But we believe the days of whig con-
ventions are over There certainly was a
lean assemblage in town to-day;--no ban
ners, no music, no procession, no shouts, n"
enthusiasm. The spirit of 40 is dead, and
we are glad Of it. Democracy has nothing
to fear when men are calm, considerate, and
in the tull possession of their reasons "The

senate of poets and scholars, who, more or
less, openly sympathizing with all the reli-
glous sects at variance with the Church Of
Rome, such as the Albigenses ofLanguedoc,
the Patermi of Lombardy, and the Templars
of northern France, filled Italy and Europe
with their indignant nvectives, tending to
raise the nations to a total emancipation from
Catholic bondage. We do not hesitate to

taken place two hundred years before Lu-
