GEoRGETowN, Sept lO-l2 m.
The Montgomery County Far.-Many o. our
citizens went to Rockville yesterday to attend the
Montgomery agricultural fair The address OF
Mr.. Hallowell, of Alexandria, was mastery ef-
fort, and highly delighted all who had the pleas
ure of hearing him. The collection of articles
was much larger than ever Witnessed there on
any similar occasion-consisting of almost every
thing that could be mentioned in connexion with
the agricultural business, and nearly all of a SUI
peror quality to the contributions heretofore ex-
hibted at this place-cearly demonstrating that
old Montgomery county is fast improving and
growing in importance, and will soon become the
garden-spot of Maryland.
Among the contributions there were number
of ploughs from the mandatory of JOS. Libbey,
in our town, and made by Richard King. These
ploughs, of superior quality, and finished IN beau
tiful style, were universally admired.
1t had been reported that President Fillmore
would be present, which report drew together an
unusually large concourse of people.
Business upon our canal is again quite brisk.
The cause of the interruption to navigation for
a few days, (viz., leak near Williamsport,) has
been entirely removed, and boats are now run
ming the entire length Of the line.
The Wings who visited Rockville yesterday
bring home with them the most cheering reports
of the prospect of the success of the good cause,
in the coming election. The feeling manifest
among the large concourse Of persons there,
clearly showed, that if other portions of the State
do anything like as well as this county, the
State will give Scott and Graham handsome
majority. Let the Wings however, be on their
guard. A leading man of the opposition re-
marked the other day, to friend in this district,
that they were determined to carry Maryland, if
in no other way, Ito use his own words) by lying

Life PreserYers.

Every traveller by steamboat, or other water
conveyance, should procure life.preserver, which
may easily be worn about the person at all times,
ready for imitation in the time Of danger. A Gu
bic foot of air in the preserver will float weight
Of fifty pounds, in addition to the weight Of the
human body, the latter having nearly the same
specific gravity as water. 1t may be easily seen,
from this fact that it is impossible to sink with
hfe-preseryer on, properly inflated, and con-
tanning one cubic foot of air to do so, person
would have to attack fifty pounds weight to his
feet. So it is said

The United States navy is sustained for the
protection Of our commerce with foreign nations.
Vessels, thus protected at great expense to the
nation, bring to our shores manufactured arti-
eles and sell them at a slight advance upon Eu-
ropean prices, and our people buy them at little
lower price than our own manufacturers can pro-
duce them. Our manufacturers then ask to be
protected also; but they are told that that is not
constitutional, and would be partial legislation,
as it would operate against the foreign mercantile
interests, and also against the agriculturists,
who consume but do not produce manufactured
goods. "But," says the manufacturer, ''the same
government that protects the merchant in bring
ing manufactured goods into competition with us
protects him when he carries your products
abroad. You, and the ship-owner, and the Anne
rican merchant, and the European merchant, are
all protected in direct manner, while you deny
to us even q meagre indirect protection" cit is
not constitutional, nor according to Democratic
principles" is the reply. ''But," says the manu-
facturer, "you not only withhold protection from
us, and protect those who oppose us by means
of foreign commerce, but you refuse to facilitate
our intercourse with different sections of our own
country, and thus to find market for our pro-
ducts in the different sections of the United
States" 'That is inimical to our interests Also"
the agricuturist replies ''Why then do you not
asks the manufacturer. 'tBecauseitis
contrary to the principles of the Democracy and
the votes of Gen. PIERCE" is the final response.
What could be more conclusive?

SO The Odious 10

The Lynchburg virginian saith: "We fire.
quenty hear Democratic orators speak Of the
'odious bankrupt law as Wing measure. 1t
is well enough, under such circumstances, to let
the people know that VIM. R. King, the Demo-
cratic candidate for the Vice Presidency in 1852,
voted for that identical measure, 'odious as it
is He also voted for the United States Bank
charter, which that party consider the strongest
proof of Federalism"

1t is astonishing how generally the Loco pa

venerated hero! We met with it this morning
in the Trenton True American, for the first time

Tut, tut, tut That Gen. Scott should have

The Dragging Game.

The Richmond Wing is quoting columns from
the files of the Richmond Enquirer, in 1910,
wherein the defeat Of Harrison was regarded as
certain! 1t is astonishing how much the articles
read like those now in circulation in the Loco
press, with reference to General Scott. With the
substitution Of new names and dates, some Of the
articles would suit just as well as those of more
recent manufacture.

We wonder that you do not prefer Hale, for he

MIR. Webafer.

The position Of this distinguished statesman
before the country is rather anomalous at present
and we regret, on his account solely, that he does
not at once see proper to lift the clouds and wells
which surround him, and show to the country
that he is now, as ever, worthy Of the dstin-
guished position which he has ever held in the
Wing party so long q distinguished member.
While we have never for o moment supposed that
Mr.. Webster could turn traitor to the organize
ton of his party, while we have always acknow-
lodged him to be, in the language of his Marsh
field speech, "leader Of the Wing party" still
we hesitate not to say that his action of late
has appeared at least, wanting in that high
magnanimity, which we would gladly have seen
him exhibit under the circumstances by which he
has been surrounded.
All cannot receive the Presidential office. The
great Wing party of the country have said that
Winfield Scott shall have their preferment. He
is worthy of it, and while we cannot believe that
Mr.. Webster seriously contemplates lending him
self, as did Mr.. Van Buren,, to disorganizing fac
tonists, still it is due to the country, to the
great principles and party with which he is iden-
tilted, and above all, to himself to frown down
every effort, come whence it may, to endanger
the euccess of the great Wing party of the Union.
That Mr.. Webster was disappointed at not re-
ceiving the Baltimore nomination we doubt not,
that he should be magnanimous now, is dine to
the party, his long cherished principles, their
success, and above all, to the high character of
the great American, who needs not the prestige
Of the White House to perpetuate his fame and
hand him down to posterity as one Of the great
names of great people Wheeling Iatelligencer.
GEoRGh.-The Columbus Enquirer, stanch
advocate Of the Constitutional Union Party, has
placed the names of Scott and Graham at the
head of its columns, and goes to work manfully
in their cause. We notice also that the Savan-
nah Republican places both the Scott and Graham
ticket and the Webster and Jenkins ticket at the
head of its columns. All the Wing and Union
papers in the State doing battle against Pierce
and King; and the chances seem to be that many
of the Union Democrats will not vote for those
gentlemen on the ground that it is peculiarly the
ticket of the Secessionists.
In A NUTsHELL.-The Buffalo Commercial Adj
vertiser tells the whole story in the following
brief paragraph
"The only practical question before the people,
in regard to the Presidency, is, Shall Scott and
Wing principles prevail, or Pierce and modern
Democracy And the man who pretends to the
contrary is either an enemy TO the Wing cause,
or Ounce Of the most unmitigated description"
