have read the decrccs offate in the counte-

the future. They felt that SCOTS three

statesman in the U. s. House Of Represen.
tatiyes on Wednesday Of last week, was Mr..
Bowie, of Maryland, who paid his memory
the following brief and neat tribute:
I. | rise not to utter the measured phrases o
Ipremeditated wo, but to speak as would my
constituents speak, if they stood around the
grave now opened to receive the mortal re.
mains, notof a statesman only, but Of 4, be.
loved friend. lfthere is State in this Un.
ion, other than Kentucky, which sends up q
wall Of more bitter and sincere sorrow than
another, that State is Maryland. In hel
mdts this departed statesman was frequent
and welcome guest At many aboard and
many a fireside his noble form was the light
of the eyes and the idol Of the heaft.-
Throughout her borders, in cottage, hamlet
and cities, His name is household word, his
thoughts are familiar sentences, Though
not pei mitted TO be first at his cradle, Mary
land would be last at his tomb Through all
the phases ofpolitical fortune, amid all the
storms %Rjch darRened his career, Maryland
ISHtTlsHeu MN III ner Utmost neart, as Inc
most gifted, patriotic and eloquent of men;
and for him daily, to this hour, prayers as
cend, night and morning, for his temporal
and eternal welfare Maryland would, in
the language Of Inspiration, exclaim, This
day hath a prince and ruler fallen in Israelr'
Daughters Of America, weep for him who
hath clothed you in scarlet ndfine linenn
The busbandman at his .plow, the artisan
at the anvil, the seaman on the mast, will
pause and drop tear when he hears that
I Clay is no more.

pheres, he will be lamented alike on the
shores Of the Heilespont aud the banks of the
Mississippi and Orinoco. The freed men o
Liberia, learning and practicing the art o
self-government, and civilizing Africa, have
lost a patron and protector, father and
friend. America meurns the departure Of o

G1FIt is universal fact that soldiers fight
best under the command of those Generals
whom they like most. If Gen. Scott was
the tyrant commander that his enemies
charge, he would not have the love and ad-
nration Of those who fought under him.
But we know tina, his presence inspires them
VITA courage and at his command they
march on to victory This is one Of the sill

A HAPPY HIT,--Col. VIM. Preston of
Louisville, in an address at Wing Ratiica-
ton meeting held Mt Brooklyn N. " week
before last, made the following happy hit
lie said that the Democrats claimed Pierce
to be descehdehtof Percy, the Duke Of
Northumberland Now he took up one OF
Sir Walter Scott's works few days since,
giving description of the battle of Ban
tnockburn, when Scott drovca Percy be-
fore him. As the verse states:
-"And PercN'scry is .faintr' heard,

event will happen; when Pierce's, cry is
fainter heard amid the glorious shouts that

the statue of a giant, has the franRness Of a

ofevery one that comes within the sphere Of

pleased with the speeches at the ratification

they were very similar to those made il
1910"
The people, however, Mr.. Sentinel, man
ifested considerable pleasure in listening tc
the eloquent speeches of ls4O, and it seems
that they are equally as well pleased in
1852. "The eloquence of truth" reaches
the heart of the great Mass at any time.

BoLTINc.-The Democracy of Lorain, the
Townshend faction of the party who were
purchased few years since by afaw ''loaves

a meeting held on the Goth of June last, the
following resolution was passed:
Reso'Sd, That inasmuch as we repudiate
the Platform, as Yillainohs outrage upon
our rights, we also repudiate the men nomi-
mated iponth Platform, aud hold them not
as Democrats, but as mere appendagcs ofthe
present Administration, committed to its
most odious measures. and entirely GfnRwor-
thy of Democratic support. ....-. ~.
This don't look as if the bribe was still ef.

Williams Of Kentucky. who was under Scott

alluding to the charges against his old Gen

repeat them in his presence, just to see how
particularly mean such person would look

said that Gen. Scott would put soldier in
