A FAIR specimen.

The following extract from u private
letter from o member of the Ohio Legis-
lature to q friend, gives a fair specimen of
their doings. 1t was written on the Goth
of March:
awe have great times here--in an
awful hurry-bringing forth great reforms,
or great deformities. You have got u
tax law, and now they are trying to make
the dear people pay taxes twice a year.
"Slavery has been the leading topic of
discussion. Every subject runs into Abo-
litionism. We had a bill before the House
the other day forerecting a bridge between
Cincinnati and Cosington, and, strange as
it may appear, we had about one dozen
speeches about slavery and war.
1--WE spent about one week in passing
a bill for the protection of quails, wood
cocks, pee-wees, &C., a very important
bill. The expenses Of the present session

Death Of Major Harney.

We learn from the Baton Rouge Adj
vocate that Major Robert B. Harvey, a
brother of Gen. Harvey, U. S. Army,
died at his residence in Elkton, Tenn, on
the 9th ult., of a paralytic attack. The
Advocate says:
Major Harvey had in early life a family
love for the din and strife of those wars
that make ambition virtue, being an officer
in the regiment of regulars which gained
a brilliant victory under General jackson,
at the great and bloody battle of the
Horse Shoe, where the great chief, Red
Eagle, sustained such a crushing defeat,
Gen. Sam Houston was in the same en-
gagement, and both these officers bore
upon their persons evidence CT the fury OF
the fight"

From the Alliance Ledger, Extra, of April lStl
Terrific Hurricane at Alliance.

1t is with feelings of sadness that we
are obliged to record a calamity which
has befallen our place, involving the loss
eflife and property and spreading desola-
ton and ruin on every hand.
Last evening, about half past 6 O'Clock,
a tremendous hurricane passed over ALI
ance, the like of which has never before
been witnessed in this region, and never
we fervently hope, may be again.
The storm, we should think, lasted
about three minutes, during which time
the air was literally filled with the various
fragments of shattered buildings massiles
blown about with terrific violence
AS soon as the gale had spentits force,
although the rain poured down intorreuts,
large numbers of our citizens left their
the damages, and as dismantled buildings
were seen in every direction, it was fear
ed that the loss of life was great
It was soon discovered that Isaac John
son, a farmer, whose residence is about
one mile west of town, had been killed, no
doubt, almost instantly. Mr. johnson
had come to town with his wife, and was
at the store Of d. Teeters & Co., when
the storm come on. He went out to the
east OF the block, to attend to his team,
when the wall of the building fell upon
him, crushing in the top part of his, skull
so that the brain protruded. He present
ed a horrible spectacle when discovered,
being almost buried in bricks and mud,
the blood streaming from the wounds.
The mother of Mr.. johnson, an elderly
lady, experienced so severe a shock on be.
holding the remains of her son, that apo.
plexy was the consequence, which speedi'
ly terminated her existence. Thus has
double affection befallen this family.
The house of Mr. Hayhurst, about three
miles from town, took fire, at the com,
mencement of the storm, and while thu
family were trying to extinguish the flames
the house blew down, severely ~injurins

The interminable can't about slavery
shows the propriety and economy Of elect

one idea. Last fall there was in all Flu

were headed with the specious motto,
"Taxes, not Rents" The "taxes" part
of which, the people will get to their

England and the United States.

Mlgianu Snd the UnIteQ States.
The New York journal Of Commerce
concludes all article under the above cap
ton, with the following paragraph:
Lord Clarendon may be considered to
have already made atonement, in no small
degree, for the Objectionable self-yindica-
ton with which it is claimed that he sought
to qualify, and did in fact neutralize, his
apology for the recruiting corporations
set on foot in the United States, in the
diplomatic correspondence with Governor
Marcy, by the very frank and uureserved
statement with which, at the opening OF
The British Parliament, at the very sit
ting in which the Lords and Commons
of England had listened to the speech
from the Throne, when the eyes of the
whole world were fixed upon the august
ceremonies and proceedings with which
the only free government in the Eastern
Hemisphere inaugarates its legislative SEES
sions, his Lordship, in behalf of the gov.
ernmont which he represented, disclaimed
all intention, in any way and at any time
OF infringing upon the laws of the United
States, and expressed the hope that, in.
asmuch as the transactions referred tc
were bygone, the controversy which had
resulted in a "not very amicable cores.

modification, then, of the terms in which
be declared to the whole world, that Great
Britain had unwittingly affronted this
country, by a movement which, he said
was promptly abandoned az soon as i

it had been attended with no resulting
injury to this government and the people

from Lord C~larendon's remarks, and what
ever may be the expressions indicative o
personal irritation in his letters to Mr.
Marcy, it is not to be denied, that, in hi

The Democracy Of the North.

There was once a Wing party in the
North-a party of known principles,
compact strength, and high aspirations.
In more recent times, there was a Know
Nothing party in the North-a party OF
pharisacal pretensions, secret organiza-
ten, and Unsuitable appetite for public
plumber. There is To- neither whig nor
Know Nothing party in the north. They
have disappeared, and on their ruins
Black Republieanism plants the pillars of
its power.
1t was only after a severe struggle that
the whig party of the North was absorb
ed by abolitienism. The Know Nothing
party made no resistance, but leapt with
impatient desire into the embraces of the
seductive harlot. From the incestuous
connexion has sprung a great Fusion par
ty, which dominates the North, and threat
ems ruin to the country. In its vast coil
every element of sedition, discomfort, and
~lawless ambition is comprehended; and
all the diverse materials are compressed
into a sort of shape and unity. Against
this mOGStrOuS COEnDlnatiOH TIE DeiiOcFa-
CIV of the North, and the Democracy
alone oppose a bold front, and proclaim
eternal war. With the vigilance of a
vestal virgin they have guarded the puri-
ty of their principles. With a martyr
spirit Of self. devotion, they deliberately
encountered the pains of political death,
rather than abjure one article of their
glorious faith. Frustrated for a time by
the sudden storm of popular fanaticism
which swept over the North, they have
again assumed an erect and defiant atti-
tude of resistance to the enemies of the
Union and the Constitution. The result
of recent elections in the North shows
with what heroism they encounter the for
midable foe, with what unshaken courage
they sustain the charge of his motley
hosts. All honor to the Democracy Of
the North! They contend single-handed
against a confederacy of traitors, but the
sympathies and prayers of patriots of all
parties are with them to console in the
hour of defeat, to encourage in the agony
of unequal combat, and to exalt and APP
plaud in the joyous day of hard-worn
victory.-Riich. Eng.

Washington News.
WASHINGTON, April IS

The State Department has despatch
es from Mr.. Dallas in which he says that
the subject of the difference between Eng
land and the U. S. will be fully discussed in
Parliament. He is led to believe that the
discussion viii be not devoid of acrimony
toward this country, but he is prepared to
bear it with philosophy.
He mentions with the particulars nu-
merous acts of marked courtesy extended
to him, including those of the members of
the Cabinet, and regards these manifesto
tons as expressions of peaceable DISPOSE
ton towards this country.
Dispatches from Col. Wheeler, to the
Government, mention that Col. Schlessin-
gers retreat was not the result of a de-
feat by the Costa Ricans, but a stroke of
successful policy superinduced by the
largely overwhelming forces of the en-
envy.
Among the official documents received
from Oregon is a letter from Joel Palmer,
superintendent of Indian affairs, who, con-
firming the statement of Gov. Curry, said
the present difficulty in southern Oregon is
wholly attributable to the acts of the
whites, adding that the Indians in that dis
trict had been driven desperate by acts of
cruelty to their people. The treaties have
been violated, and acts of barbarity COM
mitted by those claiming to be citizens,
that would disgrace the most barbarous
nations of the earth. If none but those
who perpetrated such acts were to be afflie-
ted by this war, we might look upon it
with indifference, but unhappily this is not
the case.

Indian War in Washington Territory.

-
Captain Paul K. Hubbs, jr., in a letter
addressed to his father dated at Port
Townsend, 9th February, states:
"The Indians made a desperate attack
at Seattle, and had it not been for the
sloop Decatur, the town would have been
taken The number of Indians engaged
in the attack was $50. Whites in Seat
tie, some 500 inhabitants, old and young.
| was on the Sno-ho-mish at the time of
the battle, with 80 men. This was the
most daring attack that Ihave ever known
the redskins to make. They fought eight
hours, at a distance of about 200 yards.
They were armed with rifles and reyolvers,
common to all the Indians near the water,
and are as true shots as any men living.
Killed. whites, "a Indians.
Paul K, jr., says the race, aboriginal.
in the north is nearer the white race than
any he has before seen, both in stature
and intellect. He controlled the past
year a la Jim Savage, three tribes on
Vancouver Island, whose services were
declined by the American authoritiesfrom
prudential motives. They took whales
frequently with their sixty paddle canoes,
and the widest bear succumbs to their
rifles and revolvers.-San Francisco Globe.

Hurricane in Philadelphla.

Saturday night in Philadelphia has been
very large.
Houses damaged or destroyed 265
Total damage over 100000
Number of persons injured 8
The Bulletin gives the following addi-
tional particulars:
The sloop Mary, bound to Cantwell's
Bridge Delaware, with a valuable cargo
of dry goods, was passing down the river
below the Point House when the storm
came up. The sloop was capsized. The
crew consisted Of the captain and four
men. The Captain and two of the men
got upon a -four barrel and some planks
upon which they foated to Red Bank,
where they were picked up almost ex-
hausted. The people of Red Bank then
went to the relief of the other two men,
and found them clinging to the wreck,
and almost dead from cold and exposure.
This morning efforts were made to right
the vessel.
Accounts from towns in the vicinity of
this city give additional information of
the rayages of the tornado. A lady was
killedat Westchester, by q shutter striking
her head while she was ~endeavoring to
close the blinds. An innumerable num-
Der of dwellings, and barns have been I'M
rooted in every direction.
A train of loaded freight ears, standing
near the depot of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, in West Philadelphia, was blown
from the track.
Ten loaded lars on the Reading road
were driven a hundred yards from the
place where they were left, and five of the
number were blown off the track.
