Cheering Words from an old PATRIOT
md Pioneer.

The following extract from business let
Ter from the veteran servant of the people,
John Johnston, will be read with interest,"
The words of such men, who have seen so
much of life, and who, for fifty years, have
shcwn that they love their country and know
how to serve it acceptably, ought to make
profound impression upon the mind of every
American citizen. We trust they will not
be lost, and that British interests and British
gold will not be permitted to triumph now
any more than they did forty years ago, when
our gallant ScoTr then led the American
hosts against this same British influence and
interests:

(Scotch) Journal, gives the following descriptions
of pieces of the wreck of large vessel. supposed
to be the President, washed ashore on the coast
of Scotland:
"The wreck seems to have formed a part of q
large steam vessel, and from its appearance it has
been long time in the water. The piece got
on shore is about 25 feet square, and contains I
tmbers The timbers measure at the floor
beads l3 inches by - inches. There are three
pieces of large hanging iron knees, two OF which
are feet in length, the other FIVE feet; and two
iron beds, supposed to be for the boilers, each
bed IS feet long, the knees at the thickest part
being four inches by two inches. On one ofthe
beds the Initials Il. W. are stamped. The floor
heads are Lolted with iron bolts; and the butt
ends with composition balls, above eight inches.
The wreck has been Inspected by seamen and
Shipbuillers, who unite in declaring it to be the
wreck Of some large stcamcr--lhiS fact is Sa'd to
be aScertancd almost beyond doubt. In these
