Remarks Of Gen. Pierce at the New
y Hampshire State Fair.

t Last week the N. Hampshire State fair was
held at Mefedith Bridge An Address was
delivered on Thursday by w. S. King. Of
Rhode Island, after which Gen. PIERCE, who
was present, was loud and perse yeringly
called for BY the audience. He addressed
them thus
'He said that speech from him would
be out OF pace; and if it were otherwise he
would not mar the fine effect Of what bsd
been 50 appropriately and eloquently said
by the gentleman who had just resumed Ills

be printed and find place in The dwelling

bright, pleasant days, which now and then

In con,monmith this vast audience, fell its

was at that moment alloyed only BY the re-
gret that such holydays, where practical i'm

sympathy were so happily blended, were not

the preparation and arrangement highly hon.
orable to whose hands they had been COM
mtted, and 10 this country. SO distinguished
by the grandeur its mountains, The beauty
Of Its lake scenery, and the intelligence, in
dustry, and brobity ofits sturdy population.
More than this would not be expected
OF him under existing circumstances. He
came to see, and hear, and enjoy-not to
speak; and he must ask his friends to ex-
cuse him, expressing only the hope that the
reflection of "the smile of the Grtat Spirit
might never be cast upon population less
happy" apsfsa
The "smile of the Great Spirit" is said to
be the translation Of the Indian name Win
nepisSeosee, given to the great lake of New
Hampshire, on :he western side of which the
village ofMeredeth Bridge is situated.

still theY Come I

Mr.. Horace Grain, correspondent Of the
Tribune & Clipper enlightens the public
mind upon the tariff question. He reciles
The same old federal idea OF discriminating
in favor Of one class to the detrimpnt of all
others, and that is the amount OF his argu-
,aent. For the particular qualification OF
the said Horace and few like him. we would
inform them that the wing national conven-
lion never said a word about high tariff
for protection, so there sno issue Of that
sort before the people. The question is set
tied, and whig Congress would not dare to
fix second '42 tariff upen the country
Horace may set his mind to rest upon that
subject. Further, from the number oi no
tiees OF the kind we give below, we are slow
to believe, aud Horace will fad the people
rather incIedulous, that the country is going
to the dogs so fast as he supposes, The fol-
lowing we copy from the Hooking Seatinel {:
ANOTHER FURNAcE.-We learn from a
reliable source that company has recently
purchased site and are now making prepa-
iations TO erect Furnace within sight OF
this place. We are pleased TO see the at
tehtion Of capitalists directed 10 this Valley,
and feel confident that there is not place in
the United States where it can be invested
more advantageously and profitably than in
this Valley. We have an abundance OF ma
terial to run several furnaces, and now that
there is a prospect Of a speedy completion Of
railroad through here, those having the
means are seeking en- opportunity TO invest
them in this vicinity.
Already there is a prospect Of the location
ofa Rolling milli this vicinity, andif one Of
two more furnaces should soon be erected in
this county, there is no doubt but the Rolling
nill will Immediately follow. These arr
the results Of the Railroad.

upon the exact time when we "Set up a

in fact by any kind ofyotes; Asno one pre-

that once upon a time, we turned into sonls-

positively that we had cloven loot and long

PARIS, Friday, Dec. 5.-The de-

day, ordering the voting to take
place on the 20th-to be secret in
stead of public.
There are rumors of continued
lighting to-day in various quarters Of
the suburbs, but they are not relied
upon. The latest accounts published
state that the insurgents have been
put down, but not without a severe
struggle. The accounts from the
provinces are generally favorable to
the President. The movements of
the troops are rapid, silent and firm.
During Thursday many barbados
were thrown up in various quarters.
at 10, a. m, while 5000 troops
were passing along the bouleyards,
shots we're fired from the neighbor-
ing passages and houses, which were
returned by UneItroOps, ana the com
bat continued with spirit for about
half an hour. Further down the
boulevards cannon and muskets were
employed until 4, p. NJ, when the
ceased in thatlquarter, but
was continued with yigor in other
sections. No definite particulars
have been published and little is
known beyond the fact that a con-
aiet had taken place and many per-
sons on both sides killed.
