0U-There 10 an anecdo.s, which We do
not remember TO have seen in print, related
abou, country clergyman who Aoprished
in some par. Of New Eng and a good many
years ago. One Sunday morning, finding
his larder too lean to furnish him salts
factory breakfast, he sent his servant, a
dull, clumsy boy Of sixteen, to the sail Of
a nrighboring butcher OF the name Of Paul,
to procure becf-s,eak for the minister's
morning meal. Blu, the butcher, who was
already TOO largely the creditor Of the cler-
eyman 10 feel like trusting him any further
without payment Of the old debt, refused TO
let the boy have any meat. The servant.
thinking il useless to hasten home with The
i'll news, lOi.ered along the road /; and on
his return, finding that his master had gone
to church, followed him thiiher, and had
Just entered the door. when the minister,
by wav OF enforcing some doctrine Of his
sermon, exclaimed, well, what says
Paul ," Why he says" exclaimed the
boy, who supposed the question was I'D
dressed TO himself-'' he says he'd be cuss-
cd il he lets you have any more meat till
you have paid of the old scores ;"

WASHINGTON, Dec. IL, Io4S.
There 10 less prospect OF agreeing upon
Mr.. Winthrop by compro'hi-e to-day than
a, any tine tor several days past. This is
owing to a proposition beng made by sev
cral Southern Iocoiucns, that ifthe Wings
woul abandon Mr.. Winthrop and unite
upon Hon. Charles S. Morehrad Of Ken
tuck, they would vote tor him. The on
ly reply made has been. that when some
fifteen or iwen'y Locos first vote for Mr..
M0rehl ad it will be time enough for the
Whigs to think Of aban onng their nomi
nation. Although there is no soundcr or
more true Wing in Congress than Mr..
Morehead, nor ro one whom would more
delight to congratulate upon his accession
to the Sp akership, had he been the regu-
lar nominee Of the Wings. yet ] snceIe y
hope that none Of our friends will ever
think of yielding up MIR. Winthrop for any
other person in the House. II this is done,
the Toombs faction wi have accom-. pllshed
their end, and The Wings will have sur.
rendered priociple and good faith a, the
foot stool Of faction and disorsaniza,ion. -
II would throw our friends inn the same
scene of confusion aud distraction that has
surrounded our opponents sincs their aban-
donmsnt Of Cobb, and would render victory
even if Mr.. Morehead could bs elected more
disastrous to us than defeat iu standing by
Mr.. Winthrop.
There are few outsiders who are also
attempting TO manufacture . public opin-
ion in Iavor Of Col. Baker of Illinois, as q
compromise candidate, but it meets with
no favor at all at the hands Of tho Wing
members OF Congress, nor could we concen-
tra,e any larger, il as large a vote upon
him, than was given ~ Richardson Of the
same State by onr opponents. can Sec
therefore, but one cOurss to he pursued,
and that is to ahere with frinness and de-
sis on 10 Mr.. Winthrop, leaving The con-
sequences TO take care Of themselves. II
