Gen. CaSS' Letter 10 the Chicago
Convention Defended.

The Editor of the Enquirer, impelled
by circumstances" has put forth a very
ingenious and able apology in defence for
Gen. Cass, touching his celebrated "ln.
ternal Improvement" letter.
The substance of this tardy and reluc-
tant defence, is, thai "a meeting was got
up at Chicago, ostensibly to further the
object of improving western rivers and
halbors." That invitations were exten-
ded to distinguished men To attend, and
among others to Gen. Cdss. That CIR
cumstance forbade his attendancc-'lhat his
RESPONSE to the invitation, twas mere
act of courtesy" involving no necessity
to "defne his position in regard to inter
nal improvements" or "manifest his de-
votion to western interests" The con.
venlion itself, the Editor ofthe Enquirer
finally denounces as a self constituted
congregation of political managers
This is very complimentary to the dis
tinguished Locofocos who attended the
"self constituted congregation" and Il
the frank aud manly conduct of such po
litica managers as Silas Wright ant
Thomas H. Benton.
Upon the whole, we regard the de
fence the best that could be made uade
/ the circumstances. = Cincinnati Gazette.

The French sewing Machine,

The inventor of this machine is an
humble artisan who has great mechanical
genius, and who has been engaged for
thirty years in the perfection of his in
ven,ion. He received patent for it in
France few years ago, and it is SAID
that for more than twenty five years he
sought in vain 10 make it work, and that
the thought flashed all at once upon his
mind regarding its true and perfect prln-
cipe. The machine was introduced into
London soma time last year and has at
tracted much attention in that city. 1t
is very cheap. Some are sold for twenty
dollars and the price varies from that to
thirty. They are sold by Mr.. Shm'dt'
No. 2S Sutton street. London. The ma
chine is fixed on table, and is very
small box. It's worked by treadle, ,and
every movement of the foot produces
corresponding action in the needle; Sc
that 300 stitches can easily be made IN
minute The hands are merely used ia
guide the material being sewn, and by
turning screw the size of the stitch is
Instantly varied. The machine will sew
stitch aud form cords sud plats.-The stitch
is the tambonr or crotchet stitch. The
whole value Of the invention consists III

done by the fingers, and thus resolving

White was arraigned for stealing, be-

from whose lips the story comes pre-
sided.--James Sullivan was then Attor-
ney General, and argued the case for the
government. In the course Of his speech,
one of the jury, leaning forward, rested
his elbow on his knee, and covered his
ewes with his hands. White rose up in
the bar, and addressing the speaker, said:
You may as well stop, Mr.. Sullivan.
you have talked one Of the jury to sleep!'
Sullivan who was quick and passionate,
turned to The bar. exclaiming with much
vehemence:
You theft Your forehead bears the
letter I, which stamped your charater.
and proceeded tolecture him most severe
" for his frequent arraignments, not for
getting to tell him ofthe nine indictments
then pending against him. The whole
audience was aroused to the highest
pitch of attention by this singular scene.
White stood as unmoved as marble,

ney General, and when it was finished,
quietly remarked;
You mayproceed with your argument

ASTOUNDING IN PATRIoTIsM.-It is Of
fciqlly reported that at the democratic
Ratification Meeting" in Columbus, Col.
Medary made "a speech of considerable
length, and abOund'ng in patriotism"
That's Just like him. Perhaps no man
since Quinlius Curtus ever did So abound
in patriotism. Whenever he opens his
lips, it flows out and glitters amazingly.
He writes as he speaks. Every time he
dots an editorial /, he seems to form lit
tie inky lake swarming with innumera-
BILE specimens of miniature young eagles.
Every editorial he crosses, erects itself
into liberty pole with the stars and
stripes streaming out from its top, In
short, patriotism is his ruling passion
For years and years, he seems to have
been watching for an eligible opportuni-
ty TO die for his country, and we verify
believe that if the earth would be good
enough to sink with wide gap as it did
in the Roman Forum, aud the Public
Safety" required the sacrifice, he would
