Lake Shore Railroad Company to change the

to be made under the authority of an act of

charge, "at all hazards and to the last ex-

They held a meeting on the 10Th Of July
and passed resolutions which, the Post Of

man of much more than ordinary ability, and

untiring industry, was always constantly oc.

of that road (6 feeD was adopted. He per.

more instrumental in saving it from being ut.

this manner probably contributed more than
any other person toward the final accom-.
pshment of that great work. Upon leav.

OF the State of New York. At the expira.
ton of his duties in this office, he embarked
largely IN the construction of Railroads, and
bad on his hands, in connection with other
parties, at the time of his decease, contracts

Recusamt wings.

It is a source of regret to the Wings of
this State, as it should be Of shame to the
Wings of Kentucky, that old Gov. Letcher
was beaten atthe late election in the Ash
and District in that State. Weak-heart-
ed and vascillating and unreliable as are
some of the Wings of Kentucky, we thought
the remembrance of Henry Clay were yet
fresh and fair enough in the Ashland District,
to arouse the dormant energies of those who
once loved him so much, and make them ac-
tive and jealous to q man, in securing the
election of Henry Clay's friend, Gov Letch-
er. We misjudged them. There were
some Wings, so called, whose souls are not
open to the incense of such memories
Their eyes were blinded by the brilliancy OF
youth opposing age. They forgot their duty'
and forgetting it forsook an old veteran in the
Wing cause, turned traitors to their own par
ty and assisted Henry Clay's enemies to send
again to Congress from his district, repre-
sentative of the party that opposed and Will
fed him to the grave. Shame on such Wings
or shame on such men, who are anything but
Wings. Let them stay where they have
gone. If they do that. all good Wings vii
forgive them for having voted for Brecken
ridge. The Wings are oftener beaten b!
secret enemies than by the open enemy
Fair, frank and bold enemies, the Wing par
ty can generally sustain itself against-bu
traitors can strike where nobler men dare no

UntimeIy Predictions.

All other Locofoco papers must "knock
under" to the Louisville Times, when i
eulogizes a successful candidate. Brecken-
ridge was elected over Letcher. Similar
things often happen in the course of political
events, but we much question whether many
victorious candidates could by a single tri-
umph secure ssch predictions of future great
ness as the following from the Times:
eff he lives and retains his health and ply
steal strength unimpaired, before he reaches
the age of the present President, he will fill
the seat SO worthlly occupied by Gen. Pierce.
More than twenty years his senior, we may
not live to see the day, hut it will come, and
there are those who will recollect who first
predicted such an event.
We select John C. Breckenridge, from
among four mi lions of American voters, as
future President of the United States"
Upon what grounds, admitting his talent!
As Democrat, does he not stand less chance
of obtaining that high honor, than some ut
terly unknown and obscure individual in the
country, his contemporary when he arrives at
Gen. Pierce's age! Does not the history of
the country the last few years, prove that rare
talent, skillful craftsmanship, life's SER
vices to the country, are as nothing weighed
against the balance of obscurity backed by a
party's dictation! Look at your own Presi-
dent of this day. Three years ago, he was
nothing but village lawyer-a second
third, or fourth rate individual, considered in
any capacity-and utterly unknown out oil
his own State. What were the talents ant
craftsmanship of Cass and Buchanan ant
Marcy and other distinguished men, heT
opposed to the policy of raising obscuritl
against fame! What right has any Demo
crat, and especially any Pierce Democratic
editor, at this day, to predict that certain
young man will attain ultimately to the Pre-
sidency, because he exhibits talents abov
his fellows! The success of Pierce ha
shown that the requirements of Presiden
at this progressive period, are not those indls
pensable for President in the olden times
We have fallen. The great Clay could no
be President of this Union. The immorta
Webster in vain aimed at that high position
But Polk or Pierce, in the form of an
second rate politician, may look forward wit
more hope than the proudest statesman in tn
country, to become President of the Unite
States-at least so long as the Locofoco pal
ty preserves its ascendancy.
