Oh Consistency!

We understand that Mr.. McCrorey,
the acting School Fund Commissioner Of
Johnson county, who frankly acknowl-
edges the absolute invalidity of his cleo
ton, and who for time declined acting in
that capacity, has finally undertaken to
discharge the functions of that office. We
are told he still ackno Wedges the inval.
idity of his election, and declares that he
is governed by the example ofthe person
illegally exercising the functions of Su.
perintendent, under the directions Of his
party! Is this so? Mr.. McCrorey has
the name ofbeing an honest man, well dis
posed towards the good order and well be-
ing of The country! Can such glaring in
consistency, such disorganizing course
of conduct, be tolerated by an enlightened.
law abiding and order loving people? 1t
cannot be.

In Characteristics. year, Harlan, in
his "lectures on educotion," denounced
Judge Mason as an infdel, and tho er.,,
mass of the Democracy, by whom he wa,
supported, as set of infidels, seeking to
elect him Superintendent Of Public Instruc
ton in order to instil infdsl principle.
into the minds Of the rising generstion.-
He declared that the contest was one be.
tween lufdelity and Christianity, and CAL
led on every follower of the meek and
lowiy Jesus to vote for himself, in order
TO save the State from In6deIity. Now =
professor of religion is in nomination
against him-a member OF the same church
with himself-and from the to ne of con.
munication in the Dubuque Tribune.
giving the cue to all of that political kid.
ney, it appears that Col. Benton is to b.
denounced as reprobate, for daring to
become candidate against this os.en,. !.
tous and exclusive protector of true reli.
gIon! The Protectorate, it appears, can
only be tconfded to the learned Professor.
the (unordained) "Licenced Speaker" Or
Preacher.

A Qucry-.Yca, two Of them.

We are informed that Harlan denies
being candidate for Superintendent, eth
er OF the wing party, or as an "incepend.
ent, "-clsiming to have been legally elec.
ted for the term of three years; but soli-
cits the people to vote for him by way of
ratJying bis election. Now, as the quasi
Superintendent keeps his views very
close of late, we cannot say positively
whether this information be correct or not;
but, from he semi official declarations of
his friends, the wing leaders in this city,
and especially Of the immortal disciple of
Esculapius, we conclude that it is correct
We wculd therefore respectfully request
either him or some Of his wing sponsors
to answer these questions: First; if he is
not elec,ed-lhat is to say, if the people
refuse to ratfy his former election-will
he still persist in holding the Office, con-
trary, If not 10 the constitution and laws of
the State, at least to the popular will?
Second; if elected, will he continue to hold
it under the former election, for the term
of three years from the first of April, 49,
AZ, or will he qualify under the new cleo
tion, land hold it for three years from the
first Of April, l848.
The people Of Iowa are not disposed to
be humbugged, or to make farce of this
matter. They have right to know the
views and intentions of any who may 60.
licit their suifrages for such an important
trust; and men who have taken so bold
stand as Harlan and his hackers, should
be prepared to answer all reasonable in
terrogatories promptly.

Another Fire.

About day break on the Sd inst, the
dwelling house of Mr.. Jas. H. Cover, in
this city, was discovered to be on fire.
The wind being very high, the flames
spread with such rapidity that the family,
who were asleep when the alarm was Civ.
en-. narrowly escaped with their lives, and
were unable to save any Of their effects
furniture, clothing, provisions and almos,
every thing else consumed. Mr.. Cover
had quantity of gold coin in trunk in
the second story, nearly all Of which was
afterwards found in the cellar.
Owing to the isolated position Of the
house, and the favorable direction of the
wind, the fire was not communicated to
any ether building.

AShnuu's Amendment.

MIR. HoUsroN's resolution Of thanks to
Gen. TAYLOR, as amended by Mr.. ASH
NUN, and adopted by the Federal MAORI
ty in the House of Representatives, read,
thus:
"Resolved, That the President of tho
United States be requested to cause to DO
struck gold medal, with devices emble-
matte of this splendid achievement, (ths
capture of Monterrey and presented 10
Major General Taylor, as testimony Of
the high sense entertained BY Congress. Of
his jud;cions and distinguished conduc: on
that memorable occasion, Gin wa, uun.c-
essarily and unconstttutioaally begun by tho
President Of The United States"
The amendment was adopted by vote
of IS to 81.
Imagine General Taylor, the candidate
Of the Federal party for President, in
the coming election, and this solemn opin.
ion of the federal majority of the House of
Representatives floating on his banners!
General TAYLOR himself pre,ends to no
experience in civil life. He ha, not yo,-
ed in very many years. He is profound.
ly doubtful of his capacity, as "a mere sci.
der" to discharge the delicate duties Of
chief magistrate of this great nation. All
parties admit, what it would be madness
for any to deny-for there is no living re.
membsance,- no feeble ,radilion,-no sus-
pcion even,-that Genaeal TAYLOR has
any experience out OF the camp. Feder-
alism, therefore, should it make him its
candidate, does so only because ofhis mil
itary merits; or because he fought brave
", 10 use the words of the resolution OF a
majority of the House of Representatives,
sin a ,rar unnecessarily and unccnsti!ution.
nNy begun by The President Of The United
&ates." 1t would be pretty spectacls.o
see any party advocating candidate for
the Presidency on such grounds as these.
General TAYLOR himself would fall be-
meath crushing load like this.
