Tn. Rev. walter Cotton.

We regret to have occasion to record the
death of this gentleman in the midst of his
career of distinction and usefulness, which oc.
Cured at his residence in Philadelphia on Wed
nesday, the 22d instant, after protracted and
painful illness. Besides many years of useful
service as chaplain in the navy, the public
know him as author of Ship and Shore, Con-
stantiaople and .4ihens, Deck and Port, and
Three Years IN California. He also acquired
distinguished reputation as acalde of Mon
terey, in California, and Judge of-Adiniralty
during the war with Mexico. Mr.. CoLroN re-
turned from California in the summer of lS49,
in feeble health, and with an impaired constitu-
tlon, which gradually yielded to complication
OF disease that has swept him away, leaving a
widow and son, and wide circle of family
connexions and friends to mourn his loss.

bill has passed both houses Of the Legislature Of
Florida having in view the removal of the Indians
from that State From summary of the act
in the Florida Republican we learn that it in
structs the Governor to urge upon the President of
the United States the necessity Of removing the In
dians, in ful6inent of the treaty of Paynes Land
ing, and, until this be Effected Of maintaining
the force and posts designated by the Secretary Of
War in 1872; and also authorizes him to raise and
equip regiment of mounted volunteers, to con.
sist Of ten companies Of eighty rank and file each,
and to increase the same if need be to two rcgi-
mcnts. II also invests the Governor with power to
use said force to cooperate with any United States
troops the President may order to Florida for the
removal OF the Indians, or, if in his judgment it
may become necessary, to use them as an indcpcn-
dent force--said troops to have the same pay and
rations allowed to United States troops; and
that the Governor be required to make application
to Congress to make provision for the payment of
the expenses so incurred. The bill further enacts
that $50 900 be appropriated, subject to the control
Of the Governor, to provide for the necessary sup
plies and munitions, and authorizes the Governor
to pledge the State for the payment Of the sum Of
money SO appropriated. The bill also provides
that if the United States decline or refuse to take
prompt steps for the removal of the Indians, that
the Governor 10 empowered to propose to un-
dertakc their removal for tha snm nf&2 .NM nN

and to assimiate our Democratic institutions to
the monarchical or monocratical, to the danger
of popular rights and liberties. This was the
popular and fundamental principle Of the Wine
creed-the one certainly Of paramount import
ance and interest and that which accounts pro-
badly for the fact that, of the present 90 Demo-
cratic" members of Congress from Virginia, a
majority at that time professed WING doctrines,
and were members of the Wme party. They
were Wines at that time, for the same
reason that we were WHIG-because they
believed that the distinctive features Of
Whiggism were its opposition to Executive
abuses and usurpations its obedience to the
will of the majority; its hatred Of monocracies,
arstocracies and oligarches; and its faith in the
doctrine that the PEOPLE ought to govern
through their Congressional majorities, and not
the PRESIDENT, with one-third of either House
Of Congress.
The WHIGs, then, started on the idea of form
ing more liberal and more truly DEMOCRATIC
party than that which was represented by the
cliques to which we have alluded. They
broke down the pseudo-Democratic concern,
at the second onset, Notwithstanding 1t was the
party in possession. After General HARRIsoN's s
Iamented death, there was so much of the
leaven of the old Richmond clique about
JOHN TYLER, that he redelivered the strong
places Of the Government to their control, and
they found themselves again in possession.
'sAccident, faction and intrigue" defeated the
WHnG party in 1914. In obedience to wha they
deemed the will of the people, they placed
General TAYLOR before the country in lS4S as
their Presidential candidate on the WING doc
trnes, as reaffirmed in the first ALLISON letter;
and this WHIG policy was stamped as the Demo-
cratic policy by the issue Of that appeal to the
ballot box, which the people have indicated as
the mode of ascertaining their will.
This same WHlG party is now in possession
| of the Administration, and that Administration
has put forth its views and doctrines in detail
in the annual message of the PRESIDENT. The
principles of that message have met with the
almost universal acquiescence and approval Of
the journals of both parties. They have re-
ceived more favorable criticism from thepress
than has ever been extended to any public doc
ument within our recollection. There are at
the present moment, in our Judgment, ma
jority of the State Legislatures and Governors
concurring in the main doctrines of that docu-
ment A majority of members in both Houses
of Congress, and large majority Of the Amer
ican people, are prepared, at this moment, We
doubt not, to sustain the PRESIDENT in every
recommendation that he has made of any in
terest or Importance. The Administration then
is, to all intents, sustained by the majority,
and that majority, whether you designate them
as Wines or DEMOCRATS, as REPUBLICANS or
FEDERALIsrs, being still but brethren of the
same principles called by different names, re-
present the POWER OF THE PEOPLE, and the
party which represents this power is the true
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

Tho Scott Medal.

We understand that the presentation Of the

medal is to be presented at the hands of Mr..

worthy of the magma mailer rirtm to one of the

Life Boats.

Much of the ingenuity Of man has been di-
rected to the means Of destroying human life,
and with no inconsiderable success This pur-
pose has been by many regarded as one Of be-
| nevolence; and the fact that in modern warfare
fewer lives are sacrificed than in the battles of
former times, is pointed to in proof of the as
sumption. We 90 not purpose entering the
lists upon this question, but shall content our
selves with averring that which admits of no
controversy, namely, that shere are other chan
nes of invention in which ingenuity of a high
order may be exercised and results of at least as
benevolent character attained.
We have been led to the utterance of this
truism by casual inspection of a beautiful model
of an invention designed to save life, viz:
Francis's Patent Metallic Life Boat-which we
have seen in operation.
1t will be remembered that it was by means
of this boat the passengers OF the steamer Eu-
dora We're saved off Cape May lighthouse, in
the fall of l649. From letter recently writ
ten by r. G. HOLMES, esq.,, the collector
at Cape May, and agent for the board of
underwriters of New York and Philadelphia,
we are permitted to make the following rex-
extract
"7nese boats hare failed When com
mcnced here, agent for the New York and Phil
adelphia underwriters, there not boat of any
kind by which vessel could be boarded through
n surf between Great Egg Harbor and Cape May,
distance Of thirty miles. When vessel was
stranded, II the weather bad, all hands per
ished. With Franciss Metallic Life Boat, WE KNOW
NO FEAR; and apprehcnd there will be no lives
lost for the want OF assistance from shore, If we
can be only made acquainted with the situation
of those who need help
We are informed that these boats now line
the coast of New Jersey and Long Island, un-
der an appropriation by Congress, and are as
sured that oper four hundred lives haze this year
been sapcd through their insirumentalty The
general who would lead an army on to the
slaughter of four hundred of the enemies of
his country would not be without honor

of Congress, boats of this kind are now being
