Awful Catastrophe,!-No Lives Lost.

On Wednesday afternoon last, we we're fa-
rored BY visit from the "aristocracy" of Tiff
fin city, moved no doubt by the laudab.e de-
sire of showing US. the poor, unsophisticated
natives" of Fremont, ho,O the thing was done
After expanding" to their fullest extent
through the streets, and exhibiting to us
dark, and benighted 'individuals, what we
might expect if 9e could only move in polite
society" part ofthem went to take stroll by
the majestic waters of the sleepy Sandusky.
One young "knight of the shears" clad in
white eunmentiouables," and fancy rest, find
ing skif on the grassy bank and wishing to
show the lockers on that, "some things could
be done as well as others" took his lady in
and attempted to "cross the stormy waters, .
forgetting in his anxiety, that some good
papa" had he known the peril of his darling
child, would have wrung his hands and cried,
"my daughter-o! my daughter''
The skif was launched containing "Cesar
andhis fortunes" and whether the young gen,
had 'brick in his hat,'' or something else
that made him heavy" he couldn't keep
"a perpendicular, and the frail bark upset, and
split him and his fair one in the water.
20, a0Aat fall was there, my country menl''
The shout that went up was rery distressing
10 his dropping heart, and with dripping gar
ments, and a crest-fallen visage, he wended
his way back to the Hotel to dry his pants, -
and forget his grief efover glass of "eau de vie. "
PS. We have since learned that the lady
did not accompany him in the skiff, and that
he enjoyed the aquatic exploit alone.

promise with Slavery was absolutely necessa-

promise with Slavery was absolutely necessa-
ry; but whether or not then, we can see no
earthly reason for it noW. Slavery can never
extend its borders, and no amount Of COM
promises or National Legislation can fasten its
biighting curse upon California, New Mexico,
Utah or Deseret And to us, it appears, that
the whole concern is only got up to heal the
wounded pride Of the Southern ChiyaIry, to
ward off as long as possible the blow that must
fall upon them, We must say that we have
no sympathy with the moyement-we have no
desire to compromise the rights of the whole
Union for the sake of a few ultra southrons
They know, full well, that they are wrong,
and they are too proud, when they find them
selves wrong to be righted--if they are SO
stubborn that they had rather break than bend,
their blood be upon their own heads; letthem
break We do hope and believe, that Mr..
Fillmore will not compromise, but as far as in
him lies, endeavor. to carry out the designs o.
his lamented predecessor As we have said
before, he is most difficulty situated, and be
will find opposers, let him do as he may. He
should have the entire sympathy of the Wing
Party; for no one can say but what he is an
honest politician. and one whom the whole peo
pie can trust in any emergency. Upright he
always has been, and whatever course he may
pursue hereafter, We can trust him, for W.
must believe that whatever he does, he a
least, will be satisfied in his own mind, that i
is right. Let US then give him our hearty
support, hoping that the storms of factiol
which now threaten to overwhelm US will sool
j come to an end.

Compliment to Ohio.

The selection of Senator Corwin for so i'm
portant and responsible post as that of the
Secretary of the Treasury, is compliment TO
the man and the State, for which we may
well be proud No man in the west perhaps
in the Union, has been the object of more Yir-
ulent abuse and bitter end haired than Thom-
as CorWin. His great speech on the Mexican
war, which thrilled through the National heart
and appealed 50 powerfully to the national
coneience, has been the special mark of attack
for low demagogues and fawning sycophants.
The enemies Of Mr.. Corwin have insisted that
his abilities were all showy and superficial, and
that close application, and laborious research
were not among his qualities. While even
his bitterest foes admit his power and elo-
quence as an orator, they have not given him
credit for any thing else.
The judgment and sagacity of the Presi-
dent have led him TO different conclusion
With the best opportunities for knowing Mr..
CorWin's fitness for so responsible post, with
direct personal intercoure with him for eight
months. where his position as Speaker of the
Senate has give him chance to know the
whole truth about the ability and habits of
those on the floor of the Senate, Mr. Fillmore
has expressed his conviction of duty by this
appointment. Every person is aware that the
Treasury department is one of the most labo-
rious and perplexing in the cabinet We re-
io;ce that the opponents of Mr. Corwin will nolO
have chance to find out his true character
and strength. We feel confident he will be
equal to the crisis We know his appointment
will be popular here, and will give tone to
the administration that will secure the good
will and Jealous support of the people of Ohio.

Mr.. Fillmore is a selfmade mana firm
unwavering and uncompromising Whig. and
the Locofocos are stripped of the JUNCTION they
laid to their souls in the days of Tylerism. Al
the last Presidential canvass ofthe two, he was
our first choice, and we would much rather
have given him our vote for President than
General Taylor, believing, honestly, that Gen.
eral Taylor might not carry the principles o.
the Wing party to their fullest extent How
agreeably we have been disappointed, the
course which he has taken, plainly demon
strates.
| What Mr.. Fillmore's opinions now are, il
regard TO the course which is best to be pur
sued, we are not now advised. Rumor, o
course, with her hundred tongues has set al
sorts of stories afoat Every newspaper edi
itor has a plan of his own, and Cabinet picked
out for him, and each one confidently expects
to see him follow the plan which they have
marked out for him. We have heard that he
is about to give his influence to the Comprom-
