ETr, John S. ThrasEler.

Mr.. Thrasher, who has been honorably
mentioned in connection with the unfortunate
Cuba expeditionists; who proved himself a man
while the officers of our government presented
good title to q lower character; and who was,
at the last accounts, in q dungeon at Havana,

connection with the parties who invaded this
Island, and that the only ground of hatred to
me, Oh the part Of the government and Spanish
portion Of the population here, are: that am
an American; that l refused to abjure my ma
tionality one year since, when required by this
government TO do so, or to abandon the business
was then engaged in; that l succored, So far
as l was able, those Of my unfortunate country
men who were captives here; and that, in the
court, had the Independent spirit (they call it
audacity) to rely upon my innocence and my
rights as an American citizen. Having been
denied justice, l now ask at the hands Of the
American government, and the American peo-
pie, that liberty of which am so iniquitously
deprived. All the horrors of the Spanish gal
leys are before me, and my only hopes are in
the sympathies of my countrymen, and the
prompt action of our national government

HENRY CLAY,

This great old man, Of mighty intellect and
indomitable will, says the Pittsburg Chronicle,
has resigned his seat in the U. S. Senate; he in
tends spending the winter in Philadelphia in
care of eminent Physician, and return TO his
home in Ashland, in the spring should his life
be spared until then.
Mr.. Clay viii be seventy-five years old the 18th
day of next April; more than two thirds of that
period he has devoted to the service of his coun-
try, and has made greater and more signii-
cant mark upon the history of the U. s. Senate
than any other man to whom our country has
given birth.
But, his public course is run approaching
dissolution has admonished him to fly from the
excitement and turmoil oflegislative strife. He
who SO often, not only raised the political tenn
pest and guided the storm, but rode triumphant
ly upon the surge which swallowed up so many
contemporaries, has abandoned the field foreyer
Farewell brave heart you are the first, the last
and only HENRY CLAY to whom your country
has given birth. Upon your towering front is
seen that indescribable divinity-that combina-
ton which q gives the world assurance of a

The Right Course

In some remarks ON the first week of the ses-
sion of Co ngress, the National Intellieeneer of
yesterday says:
80 If the proceedings of the week that has pas
sed have afforded no other indications of impor-
tance it seems to have settled the question-as
we think it should have been settled-in regard
to the distinguished Hungarian chieftain who
has just reached our shores, that, whatever
welcome may and will be extended to him by
those who greet him his landing, and by in
dividuals here or elsewhere, there will be no
formal reception of him as a political parsonage
by the Government
ga different course on the part of the Gov
ernment, or even Congress, would have been an
anomoly in legislation and without precedent in
this Government"
The editors of the Intelligencer have an op-
portunity to ascertain the sentiments of mem
bers Of Congress on the subject referred to
above and we have no doubt state correctly the
course that win be pursued. We rejoice at the
decision, for we were fearful that enthusiasm
might have induced members to take differ
ent direction, and to commit the Government to
policy which would prove to be embarrassing in
the future. But it seems that good sense and
discretion has prevailed, and that we shall es-
cape pledging ourselves to an interference with
European controversies,
The Intelligencer refers to the reception Civ
to Lafayette, on his arrival in Washington. On
that occasion there was no combined action of
the two houses of Congress-no resolutions pas
sed-no addresses made by authority. Com
mittees presented him to each house, and then
members were Individually introduced to him.
Mr.. Clay as Speaker Of the House of Repre-
sentatiyes, addressed him and this was all the
formality observed to his reception. And yet
Lafayette fought battles, and identified him
self with our country and its cause. a similar
welcome can be extended to Governor KOssuth,
without committing the country to the cause Of
Hungary. Indeed, we cannot commit ourselves,
unless we be resolved to take another step and
fight her battles; which we presume, is hardly
contemplated,
We feel as much disposed as others, to join in
the shout of welcome to Governor Kossuth but
whatever we may do individually, we would not
have the entire policy of our Government chan
ged, because of his arrival amongst US. We
look alone to the honor and welfare of our own
country, and would protect these whatever
would be the fate of other nations.

THE LATE NEWS.

The exciting news from France, Of another
revolution, will be found in to-day's paper
Louis Napoleon, so far, plays bold game, and
the future will decide to its success or failure
He, perhaps, has the army with him. but 1t Is
doubtful if he can be reelected through its in
fluence if the people rise up against him, which
is not unlikely. Kossuth was to arrive in Phil
adelphia yesterday, and great preparations were
making to receive him. 4 Banquet is to be Civ
en- him tomorrow night, at which he viii speak.
He then proceeds to Baltimore and Washington
The news from France may hasten his departure
from this country 1852, viii no doubt be an IN
teresting epoch in the history Of the world, and
should there be a general uprising of the peo-
pie on the Continent, blood will flow in torrents,
and the absolutistical powers viii sink to rise
no more. The next news from abroad will be
looked for with intense anxiety.

Vfsa Rank Power.

We recommend this article form Hunts Mag
azine to the attention Of thinkers
''That the banks are the authors of the pres
ent prevailing panic in the money market there
can be no question. There have appeared no
signs in the fiscal armament to indicate COM
ing storm. No comets tail, with ;var and pes
thence in its wake, has swept through the un-
troubled air. No evening blight-no midnight
mildew has visited the honest fields. The re-
sources Of the country are greater than at any
former period Its agricultural yield redundant
to repletion; its commerce spreading its wide
wings to rich return; its public works pro
ductive beyond example; individual, State and
Federal credit at an enviable attitude, with
seven millions excess of specie over 1920, and
California to augment the store. Contrast this
picture with that of 1887, when we were i'm
porting our bread from Europe-when our half
finished works were consuming themselves in
interest and decay, and no means to complete
them-when Federal and State stocks and pri-
vate credit were convulsed by the repudiation
and the taint of suspicion ciinging to our name.
Then why this panic at season so buoyant-so
full of auspicious promise when every wind
that whistles on the mountains or signs through
the valley, speaks of a future prosperity and
and greatness which the croaking of thousand
banks cannot gainsay. The money making
power should be vested in the State, and taken
from the custody of corporation. The period
is not far distant when some other generation
Will look upon the retrospect; and marvel that
we should have tolerated for single day such
a colossus as the money making prerogative of

The NIaiiS--AgaiH.

Our citizens universally complain of the man
ner in which papers arrive from the east
Scarcely any papers are received through the
eastern mails; and it is somewhat singular that
all Philadelphia papers reach here via Pitts
burg. There is great negligence at some of the
Post Offices east of this. The conveyance in
which the mails are carried from Hollidaysburg
TO Blairsville is not complained Of; it comes
regularly, but fails to bring the papers. The
matter for this town may be put into the thro'
mail, marked ''Pittsburg," and in that case it
would pass through unnoticed, as that mailbag
is not opened here. The department should
send a special agent to Philadelphia to travel
along the entire route and ascertain where the
detentions and mistakes are committed Until
this is done, and the present system completely
changed, the reputation Of Mr. Hall, as Post
master General, must suffer in the estimation Of
this community.

ARRIVAL OF THE EUROPA.
REVOLUTION In FRANCE!

HALIFAX, Dec 20, 1851
The steamer Europa, from Liverpool, arrived
here this morning, having experienced constant
succession of heavy gales, and lost a man over
board during the passage. She left Liverpool
on the 9th.
Flour, Wheat and Corn had advanced. and
Cotton declined.
FRANCE
Affairs had reached the crisis long dreaded
The coup de etat had been made on the 1st inst
The President had seized the reins of govern
ment, and dissolved the Assembly and declared
Paris in state of siege; and had also arrested
the leading opponents and appealed to the peo-
pie. The preparations were effected with con-
summate skill and secrecy. Every thing was
consummated before the Assembly had the least
idea of the Presidents intentions. An entirely
new ministry had been formed.
At daylight, Tuesday morning, the Presidents
proclamation had been posted throughout the
city, in which he ordered the dispersion of the
Assembly, and the restoration of universal suf-
frage, and also proposing new system of gov
ernment-the instant election by the people and
army Of a President to hold office ten years,
supported by council Of State and by two
houses Of legislature; the executive power to
remain in the hands of the President The
election is to take place during the present
month, and the President promises to bow to
the will Of the people, and says he has been
forced into his present attitude. 1t is certain
that Theirs, Changarnier, and others of his op-
ponents, had decided to demand his arrest and
Impeachment ON the I'd inst and were almost
in the act of moving in the matter, when they
and their principal friends were arrested and
conveyed to Vincennes. Whenever members of
the Assembly have attempted to meet, they have
officially been ordered to disperse, and were ar
rested if they refused to do So Two hundred
members have been arrested, and subsequently
released, but all the leaders of the opposition
are in prison Three hundred members of the
Assembly, it is said, had given in their adhesion
to the President, and telegraphic dispatches
from the Departments state that the Presidents
determination had been hailed almost with en-
thusasm. Subsequently these reports were
contradicted.
Barricades were erected in diffe rent quarters
of Paris, but were speedily broken down by the
'IOOPS' al one OF lnese, tWo members OF the
Assembly who occupied prominent places, were
killed in the conflict
On Tuesday, a section of the Assembly con
trived to meet and decided on the deposition Of
the President and his impeachment for high
treason. The meeting was dispersed by the
troops, and the decree was ridiculed on all
hands. Troops were placed in the houses, &C.,
of the officers of the Assembly who were ex-
empted from arrest-among others, NJ. Duphin.
The full vigor of martial law prevailed against
all persons concerned in barricading, and large
numbers had been shot up to Thursday night.
The success of the President seemed certain.
London advices of Friday do not materially
vary the prospect, but new events are constant
ly transpiring.

Severe Storm on Lake Erie.

GIRARD, Penn'a, Dec. 17th-1 PM The
steamer May Flower went ashore last night five
miles below Conaut, during one of the most aw-
full gales ever experienced on Lake Erie. She
is a perfect wreck. Those on board saw moth
ing from Monday evening till last night, when
they went ashore The rudder-chains and the
smoke pipe were carried away. Nothing but
the skill and GOODNESS of the officers saved all on
board from fearful death.
BUFFALO, Dec. 18th, 1851-The storm here
has been one Of the worst we ever experienced,
and it has not yet abated. The snow is drifting
in vast hills, and the mails are all delayed. The
propeller Oneida is ashore at Fairport.

FIOggiIag IEl the Navy.

In the Report of the Secretary of the Navy;
the question Of corpOreal punishment is com
mented upon at considerable length. A mate
rial defect in our naval code is held to be that
which is oceasioned by the failure to provide any
punishment by way of substitute. The report
goes on to say, that the abolition of naval fog
ging has been attended with Improbable conse-
quences; that justice is delayed by confinement;
that honest men are made the servants of the
unworthy, while the latter are in confinement; :;
and that the ships effective force is weakened.
The Secretary considers that the consequences
Of the change have thus far been detrimental to
the service, and commends the subject to the
consideration of Congress.
We hope there may be no return to the reap
plication of the detested 'cat-o'-n '-nine-tails' on
the backs Of the poor sailors.
