For which no other man in all creation,
So fitted was by wit and education
At least 80 all friends swore ''by darnation."
These friends came to solace his notification
From all parts of the universal Yankee nation.
Begging him not to feel the least vexation.
Since there was not man in all creation,
So fitted for that glorious exaltation,
The post of honor-call'd a private station.

GEN. HArNAu.-Mr. Locke, of the Savannah
Republican, in one Of his recent letters from Eu
rope, says: eve had cure guest at GrHfen-
burg the two or three months of last winter cele
brity-no less person than Gen. Haynau, whose
long mustaches called to mind Perkins g. Barcly's
brewery. He may be now go years of age. His
step is feeble, his beard and mustache white, and
his mouth has constantly mumbling kind Of
nervous action He came to Gr9fsnburg with
dropsy in his feet, and went away cured--or APP
parently so. He is man Of iron nerves-cruel
and relentless, and to the credit of the Austrian
officers, it should be said, generally detested. He
is by birth an illegitmate son Of the Duke Of
Hesse Cassel. Notwithstanding the cruelties he
perpetrated in Hungary, he has bought an estate
there for loo, 900 forms, and il | am correctly
informed, he is not disliked by his tenantry
Afer his campaigns in Italy and Hungary, he re-
ceivea 100000 forms (some say 500, OO0) from
the Austrian government, which, however, de-
cned comforting upon him the title Of Field
Marshal. Ths unhappy town of Brescia, in It.
ally, will bear enduring traces Of his cruelty and
fsrocity."

Webster In Boston, called on him Il the Ast0r
House. when expressed the regret that then
entertained, and nov most deeply feel, that |
oould not meet him under different circumstan.
ces.
Some other conversation occurred between
US in regard 10 the political aspect OF The country
which il is not necessary to relate.
La the course OF our conversation, stated to
Mr.. Webster that his friends were embarrassed
10 regard to his position, but that supposed
that Wa had no alternative but TO snsah the
nomination of tie Baltimore convention, as n
different course might endsnger the harmony Of
the Wing party and its ultimate success; to
whi,h Mr.. Webster responded, that the Wing
party should sustain the nomination. made by
the convention.
At the meeting alluded to in your paper, |
certainly did not, in the few remarks that made,
mean to convey the idea that Mr.. Webster
would cordially sustain the nomination, for |
knew that he would not but that, on matter
of principle, he, and every good Wing, would
sustain a nominee who would carry out those
principles that the Wings he'd long contended
for, and the adoption of which would best pro-
mote the great interests of the country.
At the meeting in the ninth ward, probably
spoke of Mr.. w. Ms a statesman entirely Invested
OF those eelfsh feelings which sometimes char
acterze man of less enlarged capacity, and
who is actuated by considerations OF mere per-
sonal character; and that, however elevated might
bs his elaine to the most exalted position within
our gift, all would be sacrificed on the altar of
patriotism and devotion to the interests Of his
country. In this characteristic of Mr.. Webster
| cannot DO deceived; and the nomination by
the native Americans, nor the OvaGOns ut B0s.
ton, cannot, and will not, am confident, for one
moment shake his determination to stand by
the principles of party of which he has been
SO long the honored leader, or induce him to
adopt course that will endanger the unkindest
feelings of large portion of that party Of whose
principles and policy he has been the abest ad-
vOcate. r. A. IALLmADGE.

INDIAN BILL.

ACCOMPLISHED AT LAsr.-It is well known
that there is no word in the English Ian guage to
rhyme with "month." Confident Of this,
gentleman recently asserted among several of his
friends, that with all their boosted ingenuity there
was not one of them who could produce rhyme
to "month." A grave individual present imme-
dately drew forth pencil and wrote the follow
ing, which. on being read publicly, brought down
the house, and the grave individual returned his
pencil amidst cloud OF dust.

Mr.. Webstor's Position.

Mr.. WEBSTER, il seems, is adopting mas
terly inactivity in reference to the movements of
his friends relative to his nomination. He /" takes
no steps backwards" and no steps forwards.
He simply stands still, and, like a gentleman in
a duel, is sin the hands Of his friends"
Tho New York Mirror, speaking of this mat
ter, Gays
sin regard to Mr. Webster's standing the
fire of the American Union party, which is now
surging up in variOns parts of the country, we
venture to assert that Mr.. Webster DiH neither
rebuke nor encourage The action Of his friends.
His position is, and will be, position of MAS
TERLY INACTIVITY"
The Boston Courier, his especial home organ,
ha, an indignation article, commencing thus:
"THE PREsIDENCY.-The process of making
capital as it is called, for the approaching cleo
ton has been began by the supporters of Gen.
Scott in rather INSCRIPTIONS manner Last
week they concocted story that Mr.. Webster
had declared for what they are pleased to call
the regular nomination" The story is so
gravely told that we cannot refrain from copy
ing it entire as it appeared in the Boston Alias
of Saturday, headed with title in staring cap
itals thus:
HON. DANIEL WEBSTER AND THE
WING NOMINATIONS.
MR. WEBSTER SUPPORTS GENERAL SCOTT.
Then follows the statement already given
to that effect.
The Courier then proceeds to demolish The
statement:
"Observe how positively and circumstantially,
ov,1 ,.,;th pho ofr IF Mt ~ W
tale is told and how will it answer on the face
of it to the description of very interesting
and important statement Mr.. Webster did
not mnce the matter at all according to this
veracious narrative, but wanted everybody to
rally to the support Of General Scott. He
was not only ready to give him his cordial aup-
port, but trusted that all other Wings would do
the same, and this, of course, is TO put an efec.
tual extinguisher' upon all dissent and dsaf-
lection.
ave are authorized to state that the story is
pure invention. Not a word of what is ascrib.
ed to Mr.. Webster, on the authority of Mr. Tall.
madge, is true nor, as we have good reason to
believe, has Mr.. Webster made any declarations
of nature similar to the above, to any person
whatever"
The same paper says:
ave learn that Messrs Samuel Hooper and
William ID. Swan, of the Wing State Central
Committee, have sent in their designations. The
enthusiasm and wildfre which certain persons
manufacture upon paper for the use of General
Scott seems to be quite deficient in the power
of imparting hope and confidence"

We find the following statement in letter
written to the Journal of Commerce:
Iregret to learn that the House Committee on
the judiciary have decided, at length, aganat the
apportionment bill of the Senate The Senate
bill gave two representatives to California, and
also allowed a representative to South Carolina
for her fraction, which was larger than that of
California. In order 10 settle this matter, and
to do justice to California and South Carolina,
the Senate passed bill directing the apportion-
mont to be made on the basis of 234 representa-
tives In CongFsss,-this would give California
two representatives as at present, which she
has had from tho first, when not entitled to but
one. It will also give South Carolina a repre-
sentative for her Erection, and thus lea We her
number, a. at present six members.
The House committee want to leave the mum
Der of the House at 233, as fixed by the census
act, and to give California her two representa-
tives, and to cut off South Carolina from her
fractional representative.
Should this ilberal policy prevail, it will
tend 10 produce the impression in South Carroll
m that she is harshly dealt with, on account of
her late political course and thereby to excite
feelings which have been happily allayed.

AUSTRALIA AND ENGLAND.-It is significant
fact that remonstrances, Legislative and otherwise
begin to come to the British Parliament from
Australia, denying the right of the mother coun

marks that "the same ground is taken as the
old thirteen North American colonies took al
the commencement of the war of lndependence.'
Australia, though growing rapidly, is still weak

haps, of immediate consequence, but they fore
shadow ultimate results England colonies the

he warmly proffers his services as chaperon

have nominated Gen. JOHN A. QUITMAN, for
President and Hon. T. l.. CLINGMAN, for Vice
President But whilst they indicate this as
their nomination, they pledge themselves to

The Halifax British American says there is
no doubt whatever, that gold-real veritable
gold-has been discovered in Nova Scotia, in
large quantities and of great purity. Samples
have been forwarded to scientific men in that
city with strict injunctions to secrecy nor will
the parties confide the locality of their digg'ngs
even to the men they are consulting as to the
quality Of the article they are digging. We are
informed that telegrapbic despatch has been
received, stating that the people are locking to
Annapolis, from st. John, and that the rush Is
so great that seamen cannot be got to man the
vessels in the Annapolis river The desire of
the miners to keep their diggngs secret, is be
cause the general mining association claim all
the mines and minerals Of Nova Scotia, and
would of course seize on any diggings Of value,
that have been, or may be discovered.
