What do they In the westi

The New York Post says;
In the States west of Ohio, Kentucky and
Tennessee, the nomination has fallen still-born
and such q thing ratification meeting is al-
most unheard Of Indiana, Illinois, Missouri
Arkansas, Wisconsin, and Iowa are just as eer-
tain as New Hampshire and Virginia. SO much
for the West!'
The Tribune rejoins: 1--WE have noted not
less than twenty large ratification meetings in
these States, and presume the actual number has
exceeded fifty. In every one of them, Gen. Scott
is by far the strongest candidate the Wings
could have named, and is heartily supported by
every Wing journal Each of these States will
be contested with energy by the Scott men, and,
all but Arkansas and perhaps Missouri, with con-
fident hopes of success. Not one of them voted
for Mr.. Clay in IA, nor for General Taylor in
4S; and yet we believe General Scott will re-
ceiye fully half their electoral votes in 81 And
if the Post and other journals Of its stamp would
only let their readers know why Messrs. Foster,
Henderson, Toombs, Jillson s. Co. oppose Gen
Scott, we should confidently expect to carry all
of them but Missouri and Arkansas. But, since
that journal obstinatcly won't, We shall try to af-
ford the needed information

A wee BIT OF a Mistake.

An alteration occurred in one of the public
departments in this city, on the 18th instant, be-
tween government clerk and the Hon. George
w. Jones. Having grounds for hoping that the
sun would not be permitted to go down on the
wrath of these gentlemen, and that cool reflection
would condemn the actions Of an excited mo-
ment, we refrained from giving publicity to the
unpleasant, and we must add unworthy, occur
rence. The story, however, was published abroad,
an,.s the press has freely spoken Of it. We quote
the following from the Pittsburg Daily Union, a
very Dem ,ocratic journal, which appears to be
disposed to ,oaake great political capital out of
the affair but L,efore we do so, we would remark
that the Hon. G. w. Jones, of Tennessee, is a
real, firm, genuine ha I'd shell old Democrat and,
as we believe of no Kin whatever in consan-
guinity or politics, to Senator Jimmy JONES'"
whom the Union strikes at, and who often uses
still more powerful weapons though of another
kind The Union says:
CANDIDATE FOR PREsIpENT.-T following
statement, which we find in the Philadelphia Sun,
is one Of the most forcible illustrations of official
bulluinq that has been recorded for many years
This George w. Jones is one of the crack Wing
orators. statesmen, and candidates for the Presi-
depcy."
Here follows an account of the fight.
s.From our knowledge Of the gentlemen vino
fill the offices of clerks in the various departments
at the seat of government, zoe are satisfied thai
Mr.. Van Wyck spoke nothing but lie truth; and
we very much doubt if more honorable and up
right set Of gentlemen than they are-taken as 8
body-can be found in the world, They are
faithful and attentive to their duties and, even
if they have no vote where they live, are not the
slaves of bullying members of Congress-"
We assent to what the Union says of the clerks,
but must protest against its abuse of Mr.. Jones
We condemn his course toward Mr.. Van WICK
with all our heart, but protest against his being
called by such hard names We do not believe
the tenor of his life will warrant such abusive
epithets; and, Democrat as he is, we call upon
the Union, by all that is just, honorable, and
truthful, to withdraw its harsh aspersons. If
Governor Jones had been the culprit, we should
not have uttered a word in his defence, for in
making such fings at him the Union would
simply appear ridiculous. But when it attacks
member of its own party in high position, the
world may possibly think it means to tell the
truth, and so accredit it. The Union really must
take back its bullying denunciations!

uUncIe Tom,s Cnbin.n

This, our readers are aware, is the title of a
the National Era, and republished in book form
by New York house. 1t has proved, as we be-
lieve the most profitable work ever issued from
the American press. 1t has great literary merit,
but embodes an argument against slavery that
has perhaps formed a prominent attraction.
But the fair author (Mrs. Stowe) is not des-
tined to enjoy undisputed possession of the field.
The Savannah News contains the following
notice.
"UNcLE TOMS CABIN AS IT Is."-This book,
by W. L. G. Smith, esq, is an answer to the
famous Abolition story by Mrs. IL. Beecher
Stowe, entitled "Unce Toms Cabin. J" The
writer has endeavored to illustrate Southern
life and the relations of master and slave as
they exist; and, from the very favorable notices
which we have seen of the work, we judge that
it is destined to do much good in those sections
of the country where the morbid sentimentality
and false philanthropy of the Abolitionists have
been so long and industriously disseminated
We understand that supply of the work is ex-
peeted in few days by Messrs. John NJ. Cooper
Co., of this city.
The Southern Press of recent date also con-
tanned the following
"a REPLY TO UNCLE TOMS CABIN.--We have
been favored by the authoress, Mrs. Eastman, of
this city-the gifted lady of Capt. Eastman, of
the army--with some of the chapters Of forth
coming work from her pen, intended as an offset
to Mrs. Stoves Abolition novel. We have not
had the pleasure of perusing Mrs. Eastman's
novel, which is shortly to appear; but competent
judges, who have, pronounce it to be highly in
teresting; and we know, from proofs she has al
ready given, that she possesses the ability 10
make it SO. One of her productions, illustrative
of Indian character, and detailing many of the
wild legends OF the Northwestern tribes, (among
whom her husband was for time stationed J
first introduced her to our acquaintance and is
the guaranty of her capacity for the task she has
now undertaken. 1t is, indeed, a noble task for
u Southern woman to vindicate her brethren Of
the South from the cruel and unjust aspersions
of their Northern sister, who coins her dollars Of
profit at risk of their being the price of blood =

1t Works Well!

The game grows desperate, and the pure De-
rnocracy are using desperate means. To this we
have no objections to urge. The American peo-
pie need only the stimulating influence of jacobin
abuse to prompt them to arise in their might,
and vindicate the fame Of patriot who will live
upon the scroll Of fame as long as history shall
endure--a patriot to whom they cannot prove
ungrateful without inficting upon the nation
reproach it was not born to bear!
But the Democracy are growing desperate, and
the evidences of their hostility are desperately
base aud wicked.
AS sample of the yileness Of their malignity,
we append the remarks of the Trenton True
American II speaks of General Scott as
GAN ARROGANT, PEEVISH, ILLIBERAL
COMMANDER, WHOSE MILITARY VANITY
ABSORBS EVERY GENEROUS IMPULSE,
AND WHOSE PETTY JEALOUSY PREVENTS
HIM FROM RECOGNISING MERIT in 9TH
ERS, AND LEADS HIM TO THE MOST FOOL
ISH EXTREMES OF UNWARRANTED SUSPI-
CION AND THE GR0SSEST INJUSTICE"
1t adds:
"THE FACT is, GENARAL SCOTT CANNOT
STAND PROSPERITY, ANDIS ONE OF THOSE
CoNCEITED MORTALS WHO CANNOT RE.
FRAN FROM PLAYING FANTASTIC TRICKS
BEFORE HIGH HEAVEN, WHENEVER
DRESSED IN BRIEF AUTHORITY EVER
SINCE HIS ENTRANCE IN THE ARMY HE

the high position the world accredits them with

Columbian Collexe.

The annual commencement of this institution
was held yesterday morning in the E-street Bap-
tist Church. A number of excellent orations
were delivered by young gentlemen of the grad
uating class; after which, the ceremony of the
comforting of degrees was performed by the Rev.
DR.. Bacon, the president of the college.
In the evening, at the same place, a numerous
audience was entertained by an address Of much
spirit and interest, delivered before the alumni
association Of the college by the Hon. F. p.
Stanton, of Tennessee, an alumnus of the insti-
tuition.
We are gratifed to learn that, although the
college has been in depressed condition, ener-
getic means are now being adopted by the board
of trustees, amongst whom are some OF our
prominent and public-spirited citizens, to place
the institution in condition much more efficient
and attractive than it has hitherto been. Among
these measures, as we are informed, are the i'm
mediate appointment of additional professors,
and the improvement of the college buildings and
grounds. A general agent Of much energy and
influence has undertaken to obtain such addi-
tional means as are needed for these purposes,
and has already met with much success. The
people of this city and District have deep inter
est in the fostering of this, amongst other institu
tions of learning in their vicinity, and may
manifest that interest by aiding in its endow-
ment, as well rs by the education of their sons,
without sending them to distant institutions.
They may thus, within very short time, render
the Columbian College fourshing and prosper
