great sincerity say, that entertain very high
opinion OF the recent Enchequer Reports. In my

utility and interest. The cases decided dis
cussed with great care, and expounded with un
common force. ! scarcely know of any volumes

..Prihciples as is Prinetp,e..

The Wing party of this county held their
county convention on Tuesday, July 9Th, and as
it was the first assemblage since the nomination
of Gen. Scott, we looked for an endorsement of
his nomination, and an endorsement of the
platform on which he stands (the two extra
planks included) by that body. But no such
resolutions a0ere passed Not line, or syllable
is recorded in favor Of the platform of the Wing
National Convention its nominees Not a
word for general distribution of the public
lands Not word for general system of in
ternal improvements Not word for nation
al bank ! Not word about the Siakela Fund :!
Not word in favor Of rag banks Not a word
on the slavery question ! Not word for Gal
phinism and Gardinerism And not a aCord of
regret, resolution Of sorroao, for the decease of
the man without whose efforts the Wing party
would long since have been defunct, the states
man, patriot, and sage-HENRY CLAY o
Whiggery, to what base uses hast thou come at
last. The Wing party of this county cannot
have any principles else they would have given
publicity to them. If they do claim any we take
it for granted that they ashamed to see them
in print-afraid to let the people readwhat they
are. From such party, o Lord deliver US
Huzza for Scott and Grimes
The following resolutions were passed by the
said county convention, and may be considered
the platform (?) of the Cambria Wings
ResoEoed, That the Congressional Confsrees be
instructed to support the one term principle
also
ResoEced. That Johnstown be recommended
as the most suitable place for the meeting Of the
Congressional Convention.

Had Gen, Scott no military experience IN 1871
when he was ..fred with indignation" against
all FOREIGNERS, and when he desired that all of
our adopted citizens should be disfranchised and
forever debarred from enjoying the rights guar
anteed them by the Constitution Are we to
have an army composed of hundreds and thou
sands of those born abroad who become citizens
of the Republic in one year by serving in the
army or navy, while the sober, industrious far
mer who arrives here from Ireland Germany
will be required to reside five years ere he can
become citizen This is discrimination with
vengeance. This is hypocricy and demagogue-
ism Far better, we say, that the poor foreigner
would live for one year in the city or country and
then become citizen, than for him to be in the
army or navy that length of time and be natu-
rallied On his farm, in his workshop, under
his cottage roof, in one year he could learn much
of our institutions and could CLEAN sufficient to
become free and independent voter. Not so
in the army or navy where the use of arms and
the welding of the sword would be his study
There he could not be instructed as citizen
should be-there he could not learn aught con-
cerning our institutions. The design of Gen.
Scott and his party is to catch votes but the
good sense of the American people, those who
are adopted citizens and those of the manor
born will demonstrate to the Whig party that
votes are not to be bought for the benefit of the
man who in 1871 ''concurred fully in the prin-
ciples of the Native American Party" and who
desired to array American and adopted citizens
against each other. Gen. Scott ''stoops too low
to conquer when he has to bid for the votes of
our adopted citizens, and he will find that adOp-
ted citizens have their rights at the polls-that
they know these rights, and knowing agiU main
tain them.

The ..Pierce and King Club

This body met in the Court House on Thlrs-
day evening last, and the committee reported a
constitution and bylaws which were unanimous
ly adopted.
Cyrus L. Pershing, Esq, of Johnstown adde's
sed the Club and was loudly applauded during
his remarks. He gave the reasons fer the dem
ocratic faith that is within him, and examined
at full length the fallacious claims of the Whig
party to the support of the people, and exposed
the Wing Baltimore platform, showing that the
Whig party has abandoned all its heretofore
cherished doctrines.
Col. Thomas c. MDowel, of Hollidaysbu:g,
being present, called upon and responded
in an eloquent manner. His familiar voice vas
welcome music to the ears of his many friends
in this section. He contrasted the principhs of
the Democratic party-the principles, of J4ffer-
son, of Jackson and of Polk, with those pfofes-
sed by the Wing party heretofore and estblish-
ed the truthfulness and excellence of the Demo
cratic creed. He spoke of the greatness, the
grandeur and the progress of the Republic, and
contended that it has resulted through Demo-
cratic principles. His speech was lengthy, clas-
sic, and beautiful, and during its deliery he
was warmly applauded.
The club meets tonight at the Court House.
Democrats be in attendance.

Great Fire in Boston.

BosToN, July 100 P. NJ.
The largest fire that has occurred in this city
for the last twenty years is now raging. Up
wards of fifty buildings on Purchase and Broad
streets, mostly occupied by poor Irish families,
have already been destroyed, and the fire is still
spreading.
1t was caused by fire cracker being thrown
into hay stack, about four o'clock this after
noon, in the of the Seamen's House, on
Purchase street, which, with the Seamen's
House, Bethel, &c, was soon consumed.
1t then crossed the street, and all the build
ings on both sides of Purchase street to the head
of Foster street wharf, and all the buildings in
the rear of the school house. from Fort Hill TO
Sea street. are in flames. The buildings were
chiefly occupied by poor families, who lose their
all.
One hundred families are already houseless.
SECOND DESPATCH.

city, will reach $3.50 0OO 1t is feared that sew

Terrible Hail Storm.

FULTON, \. Y, July 10
Yesterday afternoon, about half-past oclock
a tremendous thunder storm, passed over this
place, accompanied by wind and hail Previous
to the storm, the thermometer stood at 993 in
the shade but soon after it fell to 40. Many
valuable shade trees were broken and uprooted
by the wind and large quantities of fruit trees
were much broken by the hail. The corn crops,
is severely injured The hail stones were as
large as pigeons, eggs
Near the town of Palermo, east of this place,
large fields of corn were totally destroyed
This morning the Thermometer stands at so, and
notwithstanding the great heat, hail stones,
which remained ON the ground all night, have
been brought from Palermo, seven miles distant
still as large as those which fell here yesterday
The crops are much injured, and the corn and
vines will scarcely produce half an ordinary
yield Much damage has also been sustained
by the breaking of glass.

the Pennsylvania Railroad was opened Uniform
ally) from Pittsburg TO Greensburgh, on the 9th
of July, on which day the Chief Assistant En-
gineer, Oliver W. Barnes, accompanied by a
few friends, contractors, and engineers, passed
out from Turtle Greek to Greensburg. The road
was everywhere found to be in good order, and
the train, consisting of truck cars, the passen-
ger cars being engaged all day between Pitts
burg and Turtle Greek, did not experience the
slightest difficulty at any point. StOppages were
made at every station, and the cars arrived at
Greensburgh at dinner time.
A sumptuous entertainment had been prepa-
red, at which the Hon. Judge Burren presided,
and made an eloquent and appropriate speech
on the day which they celebrated, as well as on
the opening of the road.
Mr.. Barry, one of the contractors, followed
Judge BurreI and number of patriotic speech
es were made, toasts drank, and songs sang
The occasion was one of much interest, and
every thing passed off pleasantly, the train re-
turning safely in the afternoon.

Respect for the Dead.

\ correspondent of the New York Express,
who accompanied the funeral cortege to Alba
ny writes
1.-The coffin, which rests in the SALON of the
boat is covered with a magnificent canopy of
Grape, and on the top strewn flowers of the
choicest kind Near the head is a beautiful
wreath made from the immortelle' or life
everlasting flower) brought from France and
presented by Mrs. Ann Stephens, the Poetess,
with request that it might be placed on the
tomb of Henry Clay in Kentucky. 1t is bright
yellow, while cross of dark brown of the same
flower is worked in it. 1t is admired by all as
fit emblem to the memory of Henry Chy, who
will live forever in the hearts of his country
men. The civic wreath presented by the
Clay Festival Association, and with the same
request, also adorns the top, while the Laurel
wreath from Philadelphia, and the Boquets, from
Baltimore and Washington, are placed around
it and still maintain their fragrance and beau
ty."

Highly Interesting from Washington.


The Senates Special Committee on the recent
Mexican claims commission, has been sitting
and taking evidence for some time. Strange de-
velopments are said to have been made Seve-
raj documents have arrived from Mexico to the
chairman, developing the nature and history OF
the Hargous' claim, which amounted to $780,
0OC, and which all paid. 1t is said that
Mr.. Soules committee will report soon, in q
way to throw the Gardener claim in the shade.
1t is understood that Mr.. Webster, who left
on Tuesday for Massachusetts, will not return
to Washington at all. Probably Mr.. Corwir
will remain as long in Ohio. The Cabinet may
now be considered exploded and broken up
Mr.. Graham has resigned-Mr. Corwin is in the
West and Mr.. Webster in the East, never to re
turn.

mains of Henry Clay arrived by the cars, at
Cincinnati, Thursday at eleven o'clock. A very
large procession, composed of the military,
Free Masons, Odd Fellows, firemen, and citizens
generally, formed, and escorted the body
through the city, to the Louisville mai-boat,
which left at one o'clock. The procession was
nearly an hour passing given point, and was a
most imposing display. Business places were
generally closed, as also all the public buildings
The streets through which the mournful cortege
passed were hung with emblems of sorrow,
while all the bells in the city tolled, and minute
guns were fired. The body was placed in a
hearse drawn by six white horses.

Beg~ Court adjourned on Saturday morning
last. Hereafter the regular courts will be held
on the first and second Mondays in the months
of September December, March and June, ma
king eight weeks in year or four terms of two
weeks each. On account of an error in the bill
changing the time, passed by the Legislature,
the Court had no authority last week to author
ize jury to be drawn for the September term,
therefore there can be no jury trials then-no-
thing but arguments. An adjourned court will
probably be held in October or November
