The Wings of kentucky,

We copy, to endorse, the following remarks from
the Kentucky Commonwealth:
awe think we may Justly clLim some credit ard
challenge some admiration forthe conduct of the
Wings Of Kentucky IN the recent disastrous con-
test. They entered upon the canvass under the
disadvantage oflast years defeat in the gubernato-
rial election. Gen. Scott not their first choice
for The Presidency. They voted for another fifty
three times IN the Baltimore Convention, and never
once for him. But when the nomination was made,
and General Scott had been duly declared the Wing
candidate, they thought of nothing but 10 give him
an honest, cordipl and energetic. support, and be-
hold the result. The electoral vote ofKentucky is
secured for Gen. Scott by majority Of some 5000,
while the STATES which procured his nomination
have voted for his competitor. We feelproud TO be
citizen CT such State anu member OF such a

The occasion of the obseques in honor of Daniel
Webster in New York, on Tuesday, was the cause
of incident Which is thus noted in the Express:
INTERVIEW OF rnE VINO AND DEMOCRATIC Con-
MlrTEEs.-Among the incidents in the ceremonies
in honor of the memory OF Daniel Webster was the
friendly meeting together of the four General Com
rnittees OF the wo parties at Tammany Hall ana
Broadway House. The Wing Committees waited
upon the Democratic Committees, at their head
quarters preparatory to meeting in the fifth dlvl-
sion assigned them in the procession. Here. mutual
recoCnitons were inteTchaneed between the two
General Committees and refreshments were provid
ed b, the Tammany Committees for the guests.
The four Committees, two Democratic and two
Wings then Joined under the same MarShals three
from each party, and following the same banners.
There were six of these banners and one OF them
made for the occasion, at the ordel OF the kepu.
blican Committee of $50, was the most beautiful
device we have ever seem, 1t contained sentl-
ment from Mr.. WebSter'S seventh of March speech:
i speak day for the preservation of the Union.
Hear me for my cause" These words were print
ed upon white silk aud bordered with black. The
banner was SurmouIlted with thirteen arrows, re-
presenting the thirteen States.
The General Committees had, in addition, their
respective banners. After the whole party had re-
Iurny 10 the Park, the two Democratic COMMITTEES
accepted an invitation from the Wings to visit them
at the Broadway House; and here, there was most
agreeable reunion Of the four Committees and oil
distinguished political gentlemen not belonging 10
the organizations. .t'r T..s
Erastus Brooks, Chairman of the Committee Of
Democratic Wing Young Men, being called upon,
welcomed to broadway House, on behalf OF the two
Wing Central Committees, the Chairman and pem-
beTs Of The two opposite Committees.
Mr.. brooks closed with sentiment and gave the
health Of the Chairman and the members Of the two
Democratic General Committees.
Augustus Shell, Esq, Chairman Of she Senior
Committee, responded briefly and potently for the
two Democratic Committees. He retnrned thinks
for the coureses of this day and for previous at
ten,ions which had been received from the Wing
Committees. Though soon TO be inthe majority,
the Democratic party, he hoped and believed,
would NOT forget what belonged TO The country and
TO the whole country Differences ofopinion were
not only matter of right. but were to be tolerated
in good spirit among citizens Of the same republic
Daniel Webster, though party man and party
leader, had showed himself upon the occasion al
luded 10 by Mr.. Brooks aud upon the 18th of March,
1850, as a man above party and devoted TO his
country. So had Henry Cay, and he would there
fore give rs sentiments;

I-our Cat story of n few DAYS since brought
out another, even more surprising than the frs.
A lady who resides OIL Bond street, kept in. her
bed room plate of crackers for her children, and
upon several occasions had given one ofthe crack
ers to tavorite cat. A few days since, while the
lady was making her toilet, pussy came into thu
room, but hcrlmstreSS beingdccupied, paid no at
tention to her mewings. Presently the cat scram
key which she brought to her mistress and dropped
it before her. Taking the canine hint, the lady
picked upthe key, unlocked the closet and gave
pussy the solght-for cruck,r, after which the cat
left the room, satisfied. The story is truej can
anybody give us the key to it correctly as puSS
gave it TO her mistress. Have cats souls to their
bodies well as 10 their feet? We pause for re-
ply.-CteueLund Hernh. ~

a MExrcAN FuNERAL.-A recent letter from AGA
pulco, thus describes the funeral of two sisters
beautiful girls of eighteen and twenty years. They
were carried 10 the grave in the evening, side by
side, in an open funernl car, in elegant dresses
which they had made with their own hands for the
Spanish ball which was to have taken place on
the evening OF their burial. The car in which the
corp; es lay, was splemddy decorated-rising above
the head If each. was beautifully guided crown,
and at'tlieir feet guided ornamental work repre-
senting two half moons. In their hands, which
were locked together in the attitude of prayer, they
had boquets offowers, and their brows were Shcir-
cIed with wreaths of roses. The faces ofthc young
girls were uncoveted but, partly conceating their
magnificent dresses, was thrown over them a richly
worked lace veil, covered almost completely with
oe:ings Of flowers, while their tiny feet, encased
in plum-coloied silk stockings and satin laced
shoes, were slightly exposed to view. The car
borne on the shoulders of twelve negroes; fol
lowing them six others, with the top of the burial
case; and following the latter, still six Others with
atablc, upon which the car was set down in the
street at intervals. A band of music, playing
lively tune, preceded the cortege, and almost the
whole city saw them placed in the tomb, and
chanted over Them the solemn burial service of the
Catholic church. rt5 ~ ,ti-..5 lr..r.f.i

i"He was one of the medical officers ofthe frigate
Philadelphia, in 1908, when that ship, under the
command of Commodore cambridge, and whilst in
pursuit of the Tipolitan corsairs, run upon reef
and fell into the hands of The enemy. Along with
Porter, Jacob Jones, Renshaw, Riddle, Patterson,
and other young heroes, who afterwards signally
illustrated the naval history Of our country, he
thrown into prison at THPoi, and whilst there it
was tue good fortune of DR.. Cowdery to render i'm

severe illness, which had also the happy effect of
mitigating the rigors of the confinement Of his fell
low prisoners. TWAS an event Of much note at
the time, and added greatly to tie professional
putation of the young surgeon, especially as the
medical attendants of the royal MusSeIma4 were
wholly unable to relieve their patient. In thewar
OF 1613-'14, and since that time, at home and a
broad, his services have been efficient; but, however
useful the success OF the surgeon is ever less noted
and distinguished than that which marks the career
of military leader-it is one of the triumphs of
peace, even amidst the turbulence of war"

Marshall for the Western District of
viT0inia


.Iweconfess our adjustment and modification
on seeing the reported appointment of JOHN
AalLER, Esq. of Faquier county, to this Office,
vacated by the death Of JAMES PolSTs, Esq. We
had hoped that a sense Of justice would have con-
fined the appointment to the District, ifnot to our
pafticular region of the District. a".'' s.
We were seriously anxious for the success of one
of our townsmen, whose long public services and
eminent qualifications fitted him for such a dis.
charge OF The duties Of the Office, could not have
failed to gtYe satisfectiopS NJ 8iiJ
We feel that Wheeling had a strong claim upon
the appointing power, growing out of the fact that
a large portion of the business of the Federal
Court in this District will be transacted here. We
speak the sentiment of both political parties when
we say that justice demanded the appointment of
Western man; and the new Secretary of State
has not added cubit TO is stature in the eSimn-
ton of Western Wings, by his Perpetuation of a
principle which has made them hewers Of wood and
drawers Of water to their more favored Eastern
brethren. 90 - H.4A..- ~
We know nothing of Mr.. AMBLER personally;
but we hesitate uoi to say that there aPpli-
eants in the District his equals in every respect
and supported by recommendations equal, if not
superior 10 his. We do complain therefore that
all thexe have been passed by and an Eastern man
appointed. No wonder, then, that Wing Adni-
nistraions are short lived, like the morning clouds
