EMINENT SrATEsMAN"-The Patri-
ct, some weeks since, alleged that Gen.
Pierce, was put forward for the Presi-
dency, not as a military man. but as an
" eminent statesman" We expected to
see the Patriot and other democratic pa
pers from that time furnishing abundant
evidence of his craftsmanship, but for
this we have looked in vain. No reports
no speeches, no projects or measures OF
his devising while in Congress have been
presented to the public eye. And the
most we know of him in this respect is
that he usually voted on the illiberal
side Of every question in Congress, and
against all measures for the improve
ment of rivers and harbors, against pro-
lection to home industry, and in favor
of free trade measures. This is the en-
inent craftsmanship of locofccoism at
this day. All the British papers adyo-
cate the election of Pierce on the ground
that his free trade principles would adj
vance their own manufacturing interests.
We, and every American, should oppose
him on the ground, if for no other rea-
son, that his free trade principles would
injure our own manufacturing interests
to the extent that il benefited the Eng
lish, and would finally entirely ruin
them -hccne Sentinel

The Providence Journal. in reply to
the shameful attack upon Gen. Scott BY
the locofocos, in publishing the amount
drawn from the Treasury for his forty
years salary, secret service money, &c.
used by him in the discharge of his du
ty. during this period, well remarks as
follows:
The whole amount received by Gen
Scott for forty years services such as nc
other living man has rendered, or could
render, services which have not only made
us victorious in BATTLE but have twice
avcrted war, are not greater than will be
received by the locofoco public printers fol
one years profit on their contract; arc
not 50 great as the dona tion which the
less scrupulous of his friends proposed tc
make to the late contractor, in reward
for an attempt TO cheat the govern
ment which had not been wholly success
full. And men who can sit in Congress
and vote away millions of dollars of the
public money upon worthless objects and
partisan favoritcs, think it great cf
fort of craftsmanship to parade before
the country the aggregate pay and emo.

during his whole life of active service y

ISLANDERS upon Gen Scott
"As we never expect to receive either
a loaf or fish from him, in case of his
election to the presidency,wo have no per.
soual motive to induce us to praise him
but we must say, that. were we dispos

fabrications which have been published
against him, would warm our hearts to.
wards him. As. general, We doubt
whether his equal lives and as an hon.
est. humane and honorable man, he can
stand comparison with any man. The
testimony of those who have served un.
der him, proves, that in performing the
stern duties of the commanding general
he never lost the humane feelings of the
man. We have heard narratives of his
gentleness, tenderness and humanity to-
wards the sick and wounded, which
brought tears into the eyes of the speak
er-and, disconnected from all political
considerations, we could not repress oul
love for the man. Some of the most ad
mirablc traits in the character of Ma
poleon, were his kindness to his men
but, in this particular, he has been sur
passed by Gen Scott-who visited .sooth
ed and relieved the sick, even at the risk
of his own life. Such humanity on the
part of a successful gencral-such re
gard for the welfare of the common sold
ier--cannot fail to exalt him in public
estimation far above the reach of falsi
fiers and slanderers, who would tarnisl
his glory as military chieftain, and his
reputation as private gentlemen

Mr.. EDITOR Myself and neighbors

We are living about four miles from the
village, and the most of the way is
through the woods, and not a very good
road, and very often we get belated and
have to return in very dark night Our
settlement is composed of six families.
and after mature elaboration we came
to the conclusion that our case might be
greatly improved by having the Moon
rise at sun down, and shine through the
night, and we were unable to discover
how such an improvement to us, would
be any inconvenience to others. We
therefore came to firm determination
not to support any man for any Office, un
less he would support our favorite meas
ure. On that principle. We have acted
about ten years, but our party has not
increased very rapidly not any more sc
than some others, whose theory is mucl
below ours in point Of merit and useful
ness. We are now on the eve of Pres

The State Rights Candidate.

1t is not little surprising that the
democratic papers of the north should
have so carefully abstained from men
tioning the Presidential nomination
made by the Convention of State
Rights men, which recently sat in Al
ALBANIA. One would say that the move
ment was Of sufficient consequence to
attract the attention of all who keep
themselves informed upon current
events. Perhaps the matter has come
upon them so unexpectedly that they
are at loss how to treat it. Intelligent
men, conversant with the condition Of
affairs at the south, and understanding
the feelings of the State Rights politi-
clans, have known that they were like.

Stanly who served FIVE years with him in

with him several years, with other men,

GREW ILLUsTRIoUs.-IIa in
his life of Pierce, says that within an
hour he grew illustrious." There are in
this world Of conflict for fame, many
WAYS in which a man acquires distinc-
ton. With cost it is only obtained by
years of incessant toll and honorable eff
fors, while to a few it is enc of the acct
dents of birth or the unacceptable re-
suit of good luck Hawthorne gives
the following account of the cause anu
manner that made Pierce illustrious
through the country -
1.-The Convention met at the time a
bove mentioned [l2th June, 1881.
Thirty-fve ballotings were held, with a
continually decreasing prospect that the
friends of any one of the gentlemen
hitherto prominent before the people
would succeed in obtaining the two
thirds vote that was requisite for nom

thrown for Gen Pierce but at the thir.
ty-sirth ballot, the delegation of old Vir-
ginia brought forward his name" and
