! In alusion to q prominent trait of the Wing
| party-that of independent thinking in reference
to political questions-the Detroit Daily .Aduerti.
ser makes some remarks which seem to be very
JUST and at this time very appropriate r..
" There numerous advantages arising from this pocu
liar trait of Wing poicsfor instance the serespect of
the individual members Of the general confidence of
candid opponents in their honesty and good faith and
ua reliance and faith among themselves. All these grea,
benefits counerbaanced by of esprit de corps and
organizations without which party is 5s kept chiefly
10 minority, aud which very springs directly from the
social condition of the party. An emergeIcyany
things calling for redress-u draw around the cords

Our opponents know these things better perhaps than we
know them ourselves and upon that knowledge they
sumo. They deity up the evidence of their trans
gressons and Encouragement while they hold power-they
put off to the latest practicable the discovery the
consequences of hemand when they feel that the Revision
must come, and they orete it with the accuracy
with which hog foresees storm they their attention.
without delay, to the task dividing the of their oppo
nens by the ncucaton of false peudice false nfsrence
and false statements In this they often succeeds for the
Wing party, from being independent and from natural and
habua restveness and dislike any thing like suborna-
ton, have last to be little proud of these character
istics, and little whimsical in the display of hem hence
they often fall an easy prey to specous tale eld by po
cal opponent become buied into the belief of
VACANT highly colored and ovewrought version of real
occurrence Ne man in the world, general thing is
easily humbugge than be who constantly telling you
that he has mind Of his own and to be hu5ugge"
This well-meant criticism is happily given, and
it will be taken, we are sure, in good part. The
general trulhfulness of its animadversons upon the
Wings as party, in the particular matter to which
it REFERS cannot be well dened yet the fault aud-
ed to is SO nearly akin to virtue, that it becomes
fault only when in extremes. Nevertheless, it is
undoubtedly, in many cases, source Of weakness.
There are frequent emergencies calling for political
action, when concentration, with all the vigor and
energy which it imparts, is essential to success !;
when individual views and preferences ought to be
surrendered in behalf of great principle, which,
comprehending substantially what the whole party
desires, carries with it the best interests of the
country and the best assurances of harmony and
ultimate repose from disturbing agations.

THE CENSJTS

The law of the United States for taking the
Census went into operation on the LIST of June.
The Deputy Marshals will soon commence the
performance of their arduous duties-one has to
call at every house in the United States to
tain the name age, sex, color profession, trade, and
birth place of each individual in the family on the
lst of June, 1850: also whether any is deaf, dumb,
blind insane, idotic, pauper or convict, with the
number married within the year, the number at
tending school within the year, the number over
20 years old unable to read and write, and the va
lue Of the real estate owned.
1t will save great deal of time to householders
as well the officers if each family will make out
the list, and have it ready to hand to the officer
when he calls, and it will also ensure greater accu-
racy. We ask the head of families TO give this
matter early Northumberland Gazette.

Mark Lane report, Aug. goth, says the har-
vest has been interrupted BY partial showers
10 different parts Of the kingdom. GOnsidera-
bic progress has been made in the more for
ward districts, and good deal of corn has been
secured in fair condition during the week.
The accounts Of the yield of wheat do not
improve, indeed the complaints respecting the
deficiency Of grain in proportion to straw, have
increased, which We are not surprised at. con-
sideFing the prevalence of blight among the
earlier sorts Of wheat and the loss which was
naturally to be expected from the facts of
large hreadts of corn having been laid by the
heavy rains and high winds experiencedin in July.
It is get too early to speak Of the deficiency
but from all that we have been able to collect,
we are Of the opinion that wheat will prove
less productive than to moderately good aver
age seasons.
Prices have suddenly risen from the lowest
point, and present rates may perhaps be about
maintained, but we much question whether
the advance established is at all adequate to
reeompense for the shortness in the quantity
per acre.
Reports from the continent respecting the
harvest are decidedly favorable.
In the early part of the week heavy fall of
rain in France caused holders to raise their
pretensons, but the movement has been fully
responded TO by buyers.
