ACCIDENT AT THE MoNuMENr.-An accident
occurred at the Washington Monument ysster-
day morning, which, though happily unattended
by loss of life, yet involves serious loss to the
State. While the workmen were in the act of
hosting one of the heavy stone pedestals for the
statues, an iron brace on one of the derricks
broke causing the pedestal to fall upon the stone
steps, chipping and crushing two steps, besides
lnJurIng the pedestal Some part of the tack
ling likewise broke loose, aud 10 falling, struck
one of the workmen the shoulder He sus-
tained no serious injury, however, and was en-
abled to resume work during the morning. The
brace was made in Washington city, some months
since, according to the orders of the former su-
perintendent, o. H. Rand, and turns out to have
been most imperfectly made. Loss by the acct
dent estimated at about $500.

"My only aim and desire is to crush and grind to the
earth this Whig city of Richmond
Messrs. Editors While standing in the vesti
bue of the Senate Chamber during the discus-
sion upon the Dstricting Bill. heard the above
remark made or extorted from the lips of a Lo
cofoco, of some distinction; uttered, suppose,
the evidence of his sincere repentance for huving
at first refused to vote for the bill then before the
Senate. And we'll, indeed, might the most
abandoned partisan, demagogue or Locofoco, have
recoiled from voting for 50 infamous GERRY
mGnder," destitute as it is of every vestige of
honor, justice Or principle and more especially
of that boosted element of Locofocosm, .equali-
ty"-which they claim aud proclaim as the very
genius of their creed-that equal rights and equal
representation is the common privilege of all,
whenever wherever their doctrine prevails or
their power controls. And yet. in the very face
of this they boldly and unbushingIy ostracise Sc
venty thousand of the voting population of the
State-embracing almost One-half OF the voting
citizens of the Old Dominion. and they too. those
whu own most of the property, are generally the
most enlightened, and certainly the most liberal
and comprehensive in their internal State policy.
And in the open and most unscrupulous violation
of this, the very fundamental principle of 60
vernment-ts genius and its spirit would ask
nay, appealto the Wings of the city and of the
State at large, upon whom this insulting tyranny
has been practiced-if they, gallant, chivalrous,
law-loving and law-abiding band of patriots,
did not deserve better things at the HANDS of
their opponents, and deserving, ligitimatey
and Justly, more equal representation And not
receiving it, if they hays not every thing rouse
and animate them in the defence of their rights?
Do they mean tamely to crouch beneath the
feet of these vanda tordes. or will they
arm for the coming conflict aud repe the iuva-
sions Of an unsernpulaus foe? Do the Wings of
Richmond, of the proud and we hope of the inns
pregnabla old Gibraltar, mean to submit without
an effort or struggle worthy Of the past, of
themselves, and of their cause! Do they mean
to forget that they have rights which have heen
violated Do they mean to be borne down and
aground" to the earth by the relentless spleen of
locofocoism, which they have felt and feel in an
unequal taxation, and in being refused a voice in
the national councils and legislation of our coun-
try!
Will you hear such insulting threats that
given at the head of this, and yield talnely to :tle
"crushing" which is threatened you? Certainly
not if any of that spirit which has ever ANNA
ted US in the past is left in our ranks-therefore.
we have champion worthy of U.s. and of our
causs, let us CALAMITY gather around him. aud
let the ballot box show our confidence in him,
and the just indignation we feel tor those whose
only aim and desire is to crush and grind us of
this Wing city to the earth.
