AN INTERESTING IECIDENT-At the democratic
meeting at West Chester, Pa, few days since, an
incident occurred which left lasting impression
upon all who witnessed it. In the crowd was q
man who wore Fillmore badge, and who, for 9
long time, persistently followed JAMES B. CLAY.
He assembled the platform while CLAY was speak
ing, and, despite the remonstrances of those pres
ent, crowded his way up to within few feet Of
him, gazing all the while with an air of the most
earnest attention upon his countenance. After Mr..
CLAY left the stand, he still followed him, despite
all obstacles apparently determined at all hazards,
to remain in his immediate vicinity. These move
ments became.'so marked, that some persons who
had read Mr.. CLAY's speech in Philadelphia, in
which he alluded to the threat made against his
life, in case he spoke in Pennsylvania for Buchan-
an, began to suspect that the Fillmore man was
animated by some evil design, and he was closely
watched. At length, he embraced an opportunity
of confronting Mr.. CLAY, face to face when his real
object was made clearly apparent. "Sr, said he,
Il loved your father; would have laid down my
life in his service; honored his Judgment and in
all politica affairs followed his lead while he lived.
am Fillmore man, but cannot resist the i'm
pulse to ask you honestly what you think my true
duty is in this campaign, and to follow your ad-
vice." Mr. CLAY replied: at is scarcely neces-
sary to repeat my opinions. But if you loved my
father, and cherish the principles he adhered to,
your duty clearly is to vote the democratic State
and National tickets" Tears trickled down the
cheeks of the anxious inquirer, as he replied II

Yes, such is the doctrine, and so far as they
prove and glory in the proof that Mr.. Buchanan
will not carry Northern State they alsoprovs and
glory in the proof that Ar. Fremont can carry them

Reason permits no other construction or conclu-

in the South who exult and tell the people that
they should leave Mr.. Buchanan, when Mr.. Fill
more had no party an the same States, are aiding
and abstting the abolition party--the Fremont
party.
Why did not the National Fillmore party, if hav.
ing strength in those same State, join the Demo-
cratic party, and thus the legislatures, which
control the elections for the United States Senate?
Did not that Senate save the Army Bill and the
country2 Ought not national legislatures, to Sc
cure the election of national Senators, been saved
as paramount duty? No honest Southern man
can think differently.
Yet the Fillmore party have helped to elect
abolition members by JuSions In these StGtes.-
Therefore, say they, the democrats should desert

CHANGING ITS TUNE.-The Journal has for weeks
been declaring day after day that the Presidential
fight was between Fremont and Fillmore, and that
Buchanan was out of the ring and could not pos
sbly carry a single northern State Since the
elections in Pennsylvania and Indiana, however
it has suddenly changed its tune, and yesterday
morning declares that Fremont "is in fact nowhere
in the race" that she cannot possibly be elected"
and that the contest is "solely between Buchanan
and Fillmore" and that this is now the only issue
before the country" If its readers can with any
patience tolerate the Journals inconsistencies and
knsvery, they deserve to be the victims of hum
buggery the balance of their natural lives.-Lou
Courier.
LEXINGTON BLND.-We are informed that Lex
lngton, the celebrated conqueror of Lecompte, has
gone blind. This is the inheritance from Boston;
and we fear that Lexington will, to greater or
less extent, impsrt the same defect to his issue.
This, however, is not paramount defect as the in
heritance of blindness does not usually come until

WEATHER PREDIeTIoNs.-The westher-wise are
predicting mild autumn and an open winter, and
up to this time they seem to have it all their wn
way. They say that when the sun passed the
equinox on the 10th of September, the wind set
the whole day from the Southeast, giving Us
warm storm, and that during several days the wind
stood in the same quarter. This prognosticates a
continuance of the same character Of weather du-
ring the ne xt six months.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING.

According to previous notice, the Demo-
Gratis of Capt. r. NJ. Whites company. met
at the house of James Hail. Esq, in Neck
lenburg county, on the 10Th inst.
On motion of James Hall, A. ], Wallace
was called to the Chair, and D. W. Miller
was requested to act as Secretary.
j. 5. Waters was called on to explain the
object of the meeting, to which call he res
ponded, and explained in a very eloquent
manner.
The Chairman then appointed A, j. Hood,
James Hall, D. NJ. Miller, John Flowe, a.
Committee to draft resolutions for the ac-
ton OF the meeting. The Committee re-
turned in short time, and reported the
following resolutions, which were unani-
mously adopted;
Resotped' That we approve of holding a
Conception at Charlotte, on Tuesday of
April Court, to nominate suitable eandi-
dates to represent this county in the next
Legislature.
Resatrea, That the Democratic Party is
the onl y one which can justly lay claim to
nationality in sentiment and action; that to
this party alone, the country can look with
any reasonable expectation that its best
interests will be promoted by preserving the
intact, respecting the sovereign
rights of the States, and thus perpetuating
our Union.
Resotred, That President Pierce, by his
bold able and patriotic administration of
ihe affairs of State at home and abroad.
has proved himself eminently worthy of the
American people as their chief executive ::

consideration of the deficiency bill.
April l9.-in the Senate, on motion OF
Mr.. Seward, resolution was adopted direct
ing the committee on Post Offices to enquire
into the expediency of establishing uni
form rate of postage throughout the States,
including routes on the Pacific coast. On
motion of Mr.. Sumner, resolution was
adopted instructing the committee on
Patents to consider the expediency of ad-
mitting inhabitants of the British Provinces
to the benefit of our patent laws. The
Pacific Rail Road bill was considered and
postponed to the goth inst. Sixteen private
bills were then passed, and the Senate adj
journed to Monday.
I'm the House, Mr.. Ravens presented an
invitation of the Secretary of the Navy for
members to join the President and himself
in visit to the new steamship Merrimac,
lately built at Norfolk, and now lying at
Annapolis. The Committee on Elections
reported against Bird B. Chapman retain
ing his seat as delegate from Nebraska,
and in favor of Hiram P. Bennett. The
deficiency bill was debated several hours,
when, without coming to any conclusion,
the House adjourned to Monday.

The ONO BELLE Steamboat TRACE
DY.-Last week we gave an account of a
man (Jones) having been tied and thrown
overheard from a steam boat, because he
had shot the Captain thereof. The St.
LOUIS News states that the body of Jones,
the murderer of Captain Ed. Stevens, has
been found on the head of the bar below
Hickman, dashed to barrel. On search
ing the pockets, o number of bills was
found, such as F!tens'' and Juveniles" all
good money. This does not confirm the
report that Jones shot the Captain because
the latter refused to take counterfeit mon
ey. Indeed, our informant says that
the people of Columbus are convinced
that Jones shot Stevens in self Defence
We hope the villains who threw the
pinioned and helpless man into the river
may be caughtI and dealt with according
to their just deserts.
