under thh head eff "Another Sign," says
"Gcn. Quitman, the distinguished Cap.
tain, is also in favor Of Old lack. Gen.
Quitman received nearly as many votes
at the Baltimore convention, for Vice
President, as Gen. Butler. Verify, Gen.
Foote is a prophet: sCass will not receive
a vote south of the Potomac'-and the
north, the cry is, 'why will he persist in
distracting the party ?'"' .4a

POETRY,
TO-DAY AND TOMORROW.
BY J. E. CARPENTER.

Don't tell me Of tomorrow,
Give me the laan who'll say,
That, when a good deeds to be done,
o.. Let's do the deed to-day 2
We may all comma nd tue present
Z If we act, and never watt
But repentance is the phantom
OF past that comes too late!
Don't tell mo of tomorrow,
There is much TO do to-day,
That can never be accomplished,
If we throw the hours away;
Every moment has its duty
Who the future can foretell?
Then why put off till tomorrow,
What to-day can do as we'll?
Don't tell me of tomorrow;
If we look upon the past;
How much that we have left to do
We cannot do ut last.
To.day-it is the only time
For all on this frail earth;
1t takes all age TO form life,
A moment gives it birth!

following, which we clip from the Capt.
tol Reporter, that the Mormons are not
satisfied with the stipulated price which
they were to receive for assisting in the

these are the prosecuted citizens Of Iowa,
who have been so badly treated by the
'rascally locolocoes' Of late. .....
MORE THAN THEY BARGA1NED FoR.--We
learn by gentleman from Polk county,
that some of the sixty Mormons who
voted in Dallas vi ct arms, came down 70
Fort Desmoines, where they were paid
by wing merchant CT that place, two
dollars per day for their services. On
their return, two Of them left the maic
road, went little out Of the way, and
stole two horses. They were pursu
by some Of the citizens Of Polk county to
within six miles Of Pisgah, their camp,
where they were overtaken and ordered
to stop. One Of them complied and dis
mounted; the other put the whip to his
horse and attempted to escape, whereupon
he was shot dead from the saddle. Veri-

One of the delegates from this state to

The vote on Monday last, renders 1t evi.
dent that the pledge will be GLORIOUS.

redeemed. Maine will give Cass and But
Ter majority over the federal ticket in No
vember of more than ELEVEN THOU

Hamlin received last Monday; aud Cass will
receive larger vote than that given 20
Dana. Many of the free soil wings who 70.
ted for Hamlin, will not vote for Taylor.
Freeman H. Morse, in Lincoln, and many
other prominent Clay wings throughout the
state, who voted the federal ticket OH Mon
day last, will 60 against Taylor in Novem-
Der. The denomination of Christians call
ed Friends or Quakers, who ore somewhat
numerous in this state, and who are princi-

of his connection with the Mexican war.
They denounce him rs 4 man of blood.

with the utmost certainty upon her electo.
raj vote for the Baltimore nominations by q
majority as large, if not larger, than the
plurality which the democratic candidate
for Governor received on MonIay last over
his federal competitor.
Our democratic friends in the State
have cause of congratulation in view OIL
the signal triumph which they achieved
on Monday last under circumstances thu
most adverse, in spite of elements Of dis
cord and distraction such as they have
rarely been called upon to encounter.

LOSS OF THE PROPELLER GOLIATH.
We gave in our edition of Saturday, a
lengthy account Of the wreck Of a vessel
that had been driven ashore at Goderich,
on the Canada side of Lake Huron. This
is no doubt the wreck of the Inflated Co.
Hath, as the description Of the articles
and the small boat that was picked up on
the beach, corresponds with tina: of the
PropelIor.-The loss Of life by this sad
disaster is truly lamentable, and has
thrown gloom over our city, while 10
the families and friends Of those who have
persisted in the burning wreck the sad
intelligence has caused such an anguish
as words cannot described None are
left to tell the sad tale of their suffe rings,
and we shall probably never know the
particulars of their awful deaths.
When the propeller was seen from the
shore on this side, before the fire was dis
covered, her pipe was gone and the fire
no doubt took from the sparks in this
way.-Not person could be seen on the
vessel, and it is thought that thew must
have many Of them taken to the boat and
persisted in attempting to gain the shore,
as the boat was found perfectly whole.
The propeller was insured for $4,000
s 5000 in each Columbus, North West
and another company. The cargo was
mostly insured in the North West and
Columbus Companies, to the extent Of
about $4,000 in this city, and how much
at the east we cannot learn.
From the best information we can gath.
er, there were eighteen lives lost by the
explosion, and we give below the name.
Of those who left the mouth Of the river
as given to us by Capt. Palmer A mum
Der Of the crew shipped at Buffalo, whose
names are not known, and can only b
ascertained from the books and papers ii
possession Of the clerk Of the vessel
should they b found. 's4

return Of Encke's Comet, from an absence
of three years. lie says that it was dis
covered on Friday night last, by Profess
sor Hubbard. 1t was observed in Phila-
delphia in l845.
The Boston Transcript has the follow
ing on The subject Of this comet:
"a letter dated from the Observatory
Cambridge, Aug. 30th, and addressed 10
President Everett, by w. c. Bond, states
that on Monday morning last, about two
o'clock, the comet Of Encke was seen at
that Observatory Of Mr.. G. P. Bond, as
an exceedingly faint nebulous patch OF
light. 1t was, however, so soon obscur.
ed by clouds that only one pretty good
place was obtained by the reading Of the
circles of the Great Equatorial.

the morning Of the 3Oth, the examiner
were enabled 20 get series Of micomet-

The comet is yet rather difficult object,
but has increased in brightness since
Monday morning.
This comet will be visible to the naked
eye some time in October.
