Great Whig Meeting.

The wings of this city and vicinity
turned out in force on Friday evening
last, to welcome our nominee for Con-
gress, Col Edwards, and to listen to an
exposition of sterling old whig doctrines
from this long time champion of the par
ty.
The meeting was called to order by
Col. Wood, as chairman Of the county
committee, and he then in few appro-
pirate remarks, introduced Col. Edwards,
the war-horse Of Pike.
Col. Edwards was laboring under the
effects of severe cold and hoarseness,
which made the task of speaking ex-
tremsly difficult; but as he proceeded
his voice became clearer, and his speech
fully sustained the high reputation he
has elsewhere obtained. He made IN
able vindication of the great principles
of the whig party, and proved their ne
cessity to California interests. He ex-
hibited the absurtlity of the democratic
Benecia resolution requesting our repre-
sentativss in Congress to use their inhu-
ence to construct National Railway,
when by the Baltimore platform of the
same party, such works were not in the
power of the general government. He
indicated the soundness Of Scott upon
the compromises, and paid just tribute
TO his character. He spoke for over an
hour with much warmth and force, plea
sing wings by his able exposition of their
principles, and democrats by his fairness
and his salles of wit. He certainly ha:
made good impression in this neigh
herhcod. and we doubt not the result Of
his visit will tell favorably at the polls
At the conclusion Of his remarks, the
meeting was further addressed by Theo.

BRITISH ToRYIsM AND GEN PIERCE.
The San Francisco Herald publishes
another article from the London Times,
the British tory paper, in which it man
ifests warm interest in the election of
Pierce, as safe on English interests, and
in dulges in inuendees at Scott and the
whig party. Such advocacy is not like
ly to help Pierce in the minds of the
American pcople-nor is Scott likely to
be hurt by the opposition of British in
fluence. jefferson once said it would be
better for the United States if they were
separated from the old world by an
ocean OF FIRE. He looked with suspicion
upon the tools of foreign power inter-
meddling with cur elections. The Lon
don Times is renowned for upholding
every scheme of selfish aggrandizement
that England has ever INDUCED in. 1t
holds as justiGable the expressions of
Ireland, of India, of China, of South AZ
rica, of its own population and would
chuckle over any misstep the American
republic should take that would conduce
to its injury. Its inueAdoes against eve
r. thing American are as common as
proverbs We challange denial that
this is the character Of the London Times
This paper, with all its anti-American
prejudice, spiteful and jealous, supports
Gen. Pierce. Make note of that!
The Herald says:
I'm another column we publish very
we'll written article from the London
Times, on the subject of the Presiden-
tiol election IN the United States. The
coming contest fo- theNChief Magistracy
between the wings and the democrats is
apparently creating more interest on
the other side of the Atlantic than any
which preceded it, Gen. Pierce is eyi-
IDENTIFY the favorite in England. This is
be cause he is the candidate of the party
which has always opposed protective
tariff. The English press and the Eng
lish people always look at every thing
in a mercantile and business point Of
view Napoleon was not maeh out of
the way when he termed them nation
of shopkeepers. We insert this article
not because it leans towards General
Pierce, but because it shows the interest
which the people of that country take in
our elections. Asa general thing, the
London Times has displayed more igno-
rance of America and American institu-
tions than any other English paper
The article We publish to-day shows that
it is improving very much, and that it
has learned great deal of late.n

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.
IL. 4


The Senate bill providing for the better
security of the lives Of passengers on board of
vessels propelled in whole or in part by steam,
was referred to the Committee on Commerce.
The CHAIR then Intellectually sought to
introduce a resolution providing that on Monday
next, and thereafter, during the present Session,
the House viii meet at 10 o'clock and take re-
cess each day from to o'clock.
1t was announced yesterday that the bill
granting right of way and lands to Florida and
Alabama for railroad purposes, referred to the
Union, but the clerk had made mistake in count
ing up, and the consideration of the bill was there
fore resumed this morning.
After being amended, Mr.. SwEETzER
moved to lay it on the table. Negatiyed, Yeas

The private calandar was then taken up,
and those bills to which no objection was made
were passed. The following was ordered to a third
readDg,--b for the relief of Thomas Pember.
A large number were objected to, and
were passed over.
Mr.. PRESTON KING objected.
The House then went into Committee
on the Indian Appropriation bill, when Mr.. CID
DINGs recounted the history of the Florida War;
and complained that seventy or hundred negroes,
claiming 70 he free, were seized and sold into sla>
very by the Government.
Further debate ensued, when, without
acting upon the bill, the Committee rose.
Dir. GoRMAN asked the unanimous con-
sent Of the House to recommt the bill proposing
70 abolish the contract system, and elect Public
Printer, to the Committee on Printing, as they
had agreed to have joint meeting tonight with
the select Committee on the subject.
The House then took up the Deficiency
bin, and, after discussion, receded from the
amendments to which the Senate refused its as
sent, and disagreed to that of the Senate appro-
priating $4,000 for per diem compensation and
mileage of Senators, Representatives and Dele
gates. The vote stood Ayes ~, Noes q. The
bill must now go back to the Senate again.

HENRY CLAY is buried. The solemn
ceremonies are just concluded. Never did wit
ness a spectacle Of such imposing solemnity-cer-
emonies of such an impressive character and never
shall witness another. All day long the bells
have been tolling, tolling-al day long the minute
guns have been booming, bOoming-all day long
ten thousand mourners, on horseback, in carriages,
and on foot, have been slowly marching 10 the
music of the funeral dirge. The whole city is
shrosded with Grape it flows in broad folds from
the heads OF the mourners it ensircles their
limbs it covers the horses and carriages, darkens
the front of every building, and droops from the
top ofevsry flag staff the very streets are arched
with the sable drapery, till the exclamation Of the
poet seems to have met with literal fulfllment;
"Hung be the Heavens with black"
Even the slaves wear the weeds Of mourning upon
the hat and arm. Lexington is filled to overflow
ing with vast multitude of people, the number
of strangers being computed at eighty thousand.
But desire to give you brief account of the
progress Of the funeral coysge, since the date Of

The demonstration was not so general as an

cars by procession Of considerable numbers but
nothing to be compared with that in Cincinnati.
The most noticeable feature was delegation of
ssventy-six young men, who, Ike the escort from
Cincinnati, had been organized to attend the re-
mains to their last resting place. They wore
white scarf and badge inscribed with the figures
"76." The military, the 6remen, and several as
sociations paraded in considerable numbers, and
the Louisville Light Guard accompanied the cor

and started Immediately for Lexington. The in
habitants along the line came out to gaze upon
the saTcophagus, which was placed. on an elevated
platforn, in a car decorated with mourning and
devoted exclusively to. this purpose. At Frank.

Ashland. The gate at the entrance Of the grounds
stood open, several carriages had already entered
