We regret 10 see the want Of harmony
and good feeling, between the city council
and the Sunbury and Erie Rail Road Com
pany. Some OF the council have made
charges against Mr.. Miller and declared
themselves opposed TO any subscription by
the city as long as the company is managed
by its present officers. The friends Of the
company and of Mr.. Miller asked for a
committee TO investigate The matter which
was refused. In this we think the council
were decidedly wrong. When accusations
are made the accused, should have chance
to defend themselves.

THE WING mEETiNG-scorr a PIERCE.

THE WING MEETiNG-sCoTT & PIERCE.
A whig meeting was held at the Court
House, in this place, on Monday evening
last, in pursuance of previous announce
ment by the bills. The house was well
filled by wings and democrats, and the
meeting was ably addressed by David Tag
gart, Esq, OF Northumberland, Andrew G.
Curtin, Esq, of Belefonte, and Hon. James
Pollock of Milton. Mr.. Taggart's speech
was chaSte and classic production, though
deeply tinged with romance and heroic
verse. General Scott's military exploits
and his acknowledged talents as great
General, were, of course, the basis and
ground work of all the speeches. Mr.. Cur
TIN was next loudly called for. When he
rose he did SO for the purpose Of declining
TO make speech, on account of indisposi-
ton under which be had been suffering all
day. The audience, however, would not
let him off, and he was betrayed into a
speech of some twenty or thirty minutes,
into which he infused some Of the humor
which generally characterize his speeches.
He remarked that it was so easy to speak
in favor OF the whig candidate for the Pres
idency, that it was difficult to restrain him
self. We thought, however, that it was
not quite so easy, but rather with some re-
pugnanCe to his own feelings, that he made
some i'll natured remarks in regard to Gen.
Pierce. Mr.. Curtin has few superors as a
humorous and interesting political stump
speaker, but it is just to say that he should
not be judged wholly by his effort on Mon
day night last.
Hon. James Pollock was next called out
and made the concluding speech, and an
able one it certainly was, considering the
subject on which it was based. Judge
Pollock has the good sense to see that it is
not good policy TO attack the character Of
man like Gen. Pierce, the Conduct oi
whose whole life has been, probably, as I'M
exceptonable as any public man in the
Union. Judge Pollock spoke highly oI
the military services of Gen. Scott and ar
gued that man who had the abilities to
make a good general must necessary have
sufficient talents 10 make good President
We cannot assent to any such PROPOSE
ton. As skillful and successful comman-
der, Gen. Scott has certainly given evil
dence Of good judgment and military abili-
ties Of a high order. His mind, and all bis
energies during long life, have been train
ed to this one way of thinking and have
become to him a second nature.
( The world does not cnen produce a
Washington or Napoleon, the universally
of whose genius is apparent in all their un.
derakings. We want TO stronger evidence
to 5hew the weakness Of strong man ou
Of his element, than the controversy Of Gen
Scott with Gov. Marcy, then Secretary o
war. The Secretary overwhelmed him a
completely with his pen as the General dix
the Mexicsns with his sword.
