CITY OF VILE:
FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE %.

INPoRTANT-GEN. CAss IN A ''BAD FIX
We learn from the Cleveland Herald that on
last Tuesday week, Gen. Lewis Cass-Gen
Nun we shall hereafter write him-anived al
Cleveland and was received with civil and mil
itary honors. He was escorted to the New
England House, and upon the balcony introdu-
ced 10 The people in front, by Reuben Wood,
late chief justice Of Ohio.
Judge Wood, having briefly and pertinently
presented the Presidential Candidate to the
people, and rendered to him the inequalities
of the city, turned to the nominee, and thus
frankly and pointedly addressed him:
"Sir, permit me on this occasion to call your
attention TO the fact that our political oppo-
Rents declare that you are opposed to the i'm
proremcnts of our Western Rivers and Har-
bors; and that we have always met this decla-
ton with the assurance that Gen. Lewis Cass,
as Western nan, was fully identified with
the interests of the West, and could not be OPP
posed to the Improvements SO much neglected
BY the people OF the West, and of the whole
country.
alt may not be improper for me, sir, to al
lude to one more topic, which is, especially to
this immediate district, topic of the deepest
Interest," refer to the institution of slavery.
We are told, sir, that should lou secure the cleo
fion to the Presidency Of the United States

TO the srtensioH aud Pcrpetudtion Of human
slavery.
ssTbe people here assembled will with the
greatest pleasure n0io listen to any communi
cation which, sir, it may be your pleasure to
submit"
To the charges, thus publicly repeated, ant
by distinguished political friend. Gen. Cas-
responded as follows:
sSir, the noise and confusion which pervade,
this assembly will preDent my being heard OF
the important topics to which you have called
nv attention | must therefore content my
self with thanking you for the generous recep
ton which /, the unworthy representative o
the great democratic party of the country, hav,
received at your hands.

addressed to the National Democratic Conven
ton, Ideclared that to be the close of my polit
zeal professions
Well may the Cincinnati Gazette .e1claim
"what public exhibition was thisl" A can
didate for the Presidency is arraigned befor

are charged with being opposed to the improve

alse charged with being in favor Of cxtendin
and perpetuating human slavery. What hav
you to say to these charges? The people viii

Whilst communications were passing along
on the telegraph wire it broke near a black

ran 10 the shop, and the smith hurried Otto

the smith was in, and snxioust to release him,

HENRY M. SHREvE.-THoMAs M'NAIR.-The
Louisville Courier, in giving biographical re-
miniscenes of men distinguished for their in
huence on the early business of the West, re-
fers to the enterprizing character and services
of Henry Shreye, of late engaged as Govern
ment nag-puller, on the Lower Mississippi
and some of its branches. Among other things
we notice the following:
''ln 1910, he opened a new business. He
determined to enter into competition with
British traders, among the Indians, for lead and
furs. On the I'd of May, 1910, he left st. Lou
is tor Fever river, in new barge Of thirty five
tons burthen, manned by twelve men, and
loaded with an assorted cargo. He was four,
teen days In reaching the spot where Galens
| now stands. He traded with the Indians until
the LIST OF July, and had bought of them siri,
tons Of lead, to transport which he had to build
hatooat, and buy Mackinaw boat, and with
this Hat he reached st. Louis in twelve DAYS
and thus opened the American lead trade il
the Upper Mississippi. He took his cargo &c
New Orleans, and shipped it to PhiladeI phia
realizing 81 900 from his traffic. The trade
thus opened by Captain Shreve, now amount,
to $4,000, 600 annually"
| We have heard Thomas MNcir, (formerl,
OF the Portage" near this city, aud who dice
near Mineral Point las. spring,) relate the par
ticulars of his second trip to this region o.
country. He came up with Mackinaw boa
load of whisky, which was all disposed of tc
the Indians, living near Dubuque, in exchange
for Lead. He said the poor creatures appeared
to be perfectly crazy for the whisky. As soor
as they landed at the Indian town about mile
below where the present town Of Dubuque now
stands, the boat was literally besieged by mel
and women, who considered themselves excee
dinghy fortunate If they could get flask o
whiskey for hundred or two pounds OF lead
The lead was furnished in round flakes of con
siderable size, and by the time the cargo wa
disposed of, they had whole cord Of il pile,
up. This was in the fall of the year. Tn,
lead was left in the care OF the head chief, an,
the crew went on NJ the river some distance
above Prairie du Chem, and during the winte
they cut pine timber, hewed it square, and b.
the time the spring opened, they had construct
ed large raft. Floating it down to Dubuque
they covered il with flakes OF lead, and took j
with their raft to st. Louis. 1t proved profit
able speculation. This was the commence
ment of the lumber trade Of the Upper Missis
} sippi.

IRr,AsD.-The news which we published
on yesterday is extremely interesting, at least
that from Ireland. The conviction Of Mitch
ell, the editor of the United Irishman, and the
inhuman punishment inflicted on him, are proof
that freedom exists-in Ireland at least-only
in name. Mitchell himself spoke the truth.
when he said. long since. that, in Ireland, they
were all "slaves." Thank God. we do know
what freedom is, in the United States, where
no ingenuity or tyranny Of rulers can torture
even the license of speech and the press into
felony.
The case Of Mitchell is an atrocity, says the
North American, unworthy not merely of Eng
land, but of the age. Fourteen years incarcer-
alton, among feions, in dockyard hulk at Ber-
muda Gt was only his broken health, it sp-
pears, which prevented his being sent to that
horrible place Of exile, Norfolk Island, the
Botany Bay Of Botany Bsy;) and alfbecause
he wrote and published certain articles in his
paper. inaammatory-incendiary, seditious-
it is Of no consequence what their character re.
ally was. They were nothing b, tier or worse
than articles in newspaper; for which articles
he is convicted of treason, and punished as q
traitor. Words, then, are treason in Ireland
and for words-angry or foolish, but still word:
words not hidden away in darkness, but
spread abroad in sunshine, to be read and judg
ed BY a whole people,-words that conceal
neither the plot of the conspirator nor thedag
ger Of the regicide; for such words, respecta
BILE man. not guilty, otherwise. of any wrong
full act, may, in Ireland, be torn from society
and the bosom Of his family, to be sent away
to the burning Punishment of Bermuda, there
to be chained vilely down, for fourteen years
among caitif convicts-robbers, incendiariei
and sssassins, felons of the worst class, ant
himself ranked among the worst Of them
There is no such treason as that in America
and il there were there would be no such pun
ishment for it.
The British Ministry-representing haugh
ty sFistocFacy, the people no longer,-prid'
themselves on their energy; and, doubtless
think that in this overwhelming severe and in
famous punishment inflicted on Mitchell, the,
have struck blow at sedition which crush it
Some blows paralyze; others convulse. In ou
opinion this blow is of the latter kind; ant
instead of frightening the "traitors" of the
two islands into submission, it will only ex
asperate them, and many a popular mass with
them, into sterner and more determined re-
sistance. 1t is impossible government car
flourish long. in this era Of the world, which
makes treason of words, and Furnishes such
treason as the worst felony.

"REFORM IN TRADE

From an article by II. Greedy, upon the
subject OF Reform in Trade, to be
brought about by ADVERTISING, we Sc.
lect the following forcible and appropriate
remarks:
The means by which this great and benc-
ficien' change is 10 be effected are various,
but the chief among them are ADsxRrIs-
rNe-no, in two or three papers, nor even in
all those Of The City where the business is
done; but in the most widely circulated
journals ofthe whole region whence custom
IS desired. Nothing has yet been done in
the way Of Advertising compared with what
can and inevitable will be. No merchant
who knows how to advertise (for money may
be thrown away in this as IN anything else)
ever need sell less than he choose
provided that his fabrics are desirable, oil
good quality, aud sold as cheapIy as others
will afford them. There is no assign able
limit 10 the application Of this principle
Here isa merchan, whose very existence is
known to fifty thousand people at most, and
he sells Just enough to live by; suppose he

ing increase Of businessl Of course, we ap-
preciate the limitations Of this principle
that il is idle and waste for any seller to
advertise bis wares in a section which can
more advan,ageously produce such wares
for itself or obtain them from some other
quarter; this should teach discrimination and
circumspeciion in Advertising, bu, the annual
imports argue that the goods consumed by
ten millions ofpeople are purchased in this
city; and no merchant has advertised thor.
