Shriekers About.

The Republicans got small crowd together at
the Court House on Tuesday. Large posters and
small posters-German posters and English pos
ters-hugeiy displayed advertisements and Free
om-shrieking editorials, were brought into requi-
sition these, with the aid Of the names of 'Col.
M. w. Delahay" and "G. N. Proper, ESQ.," drew
a small number Of the faithful together, and a
small number of curiosity seekers.
What was said or done, we don't know. Owens
and Newson will tell us to-day,-the truth, prob
ably-all about the meet ing.-Pioneer.
G% We copy the above to show how near the
truth our neighbor can come when he tries. The
meeting alluded to, was probably the largest po-
litical gathering ever held in st. Paul. Does the
Pioneer suppose it will add to its reputation by
such ridiculous assertions ?

CHoLERA.-A correspondent at Guayama, Porto
Rico, writing on the 10Th ult., states that the
cholera was committing fearful ravages at that
place. The disease up to that date had, with oc-
casional exceptions, been confined to the blacks;
and the mortality had caused such serious loss
among the plantation hands as to interfere YER ,
materially with the prospects of the future cro }.
The epidemic was more virulent than usual, nd
had assumed the character of a plague. Ele va
ted localities, rs we'll as habitations upon low
ground were severely attacked. Every expe dent
had been resorted to in order to prever It the

GOODNESS IN DANGEREThe following incident
illustrates the advantages arising from self pos
session in cases of great emergency. 1t is re-
lated by the Buffalo Commercial of Capt. Lang
ley, of the steamer Mississippi, who rescued q
great number of passengers of the burning steamer
Northern Indiana. on Lake Erie:
Every person we have seen speaks in the highest
terms of the GOODNESS, decision and promptitude
of Capt. Langley of the Mississippi. A passenger
tells instance indicative of his conduct on
this occasion. After he had picked his men to
manage the boats which were lowered till they
almost touched the water, and every man was at
his place ready to take his oar at the instant the
boat should take the water, he walked along the
deck and closely observed the face of each man.
In the countenance of one, his quick eye detected
fear and reluctance. In q commanding voice be
ordered him from the boat, and supplied his
place with another man. During all the time the
boats were picking up the passengers of the ill
fated steamer from the water, he stood on the
topmost deck and commanded every movement.
Ills. orders were first for the relief of those
most nearly exhausted, and thus q greater num-
Der of lives were saved than if the strong and
the weak had been Unfortunately taken out Of
tho water.

Gem for Henry Clay Wings who intend to yo,
for Buchanan.

A Gem for Henry Clay whis. who intend to vote
for Buchanan.
The Cincinnati Gazette thus alludes to those
libelers of Clay who are now seeking the votes Of
the admirers Of that great statesman. The
Gazette says
1t is not at all surprising that these creatures
should now be shedding their hypocritical tears
over Mr.. CLAWS grave, for the men who were
mean enough to invent and circulate such infa-
nous calumnies, are mean enough to do any thing
1t is surprising, however, that men who pride d
themselves upon being the special friends nd
admirers of Mr.. CLAY, should now be found CO.
operating with the creatures, all reeking with
their lies and libels, who are endeavorj NO to
elect BUCHANAN, the chief of these sland ers and
calumnitors, the man VINO originated the Infamous
story which blighted Mr.. Clay's political pros.
poets, and sent him to the grave without reaching
the position for which he was so pre- -eminently
qualified, and upon which he would have confer
red new honor. 1t is still more Surprising thai
among these people should be found a SON Of that
great statesman. No weakness of intellect, no
insignifcance of character justifes such a depar-
ture from the course which flial affection and
reverence command him to pursue. Nothing but
moral idiocy can be pleaded in its extenuation.
With whatsoever propriety this plea may be set
up for the individual alluded to, there are others
who, out Of sef-respect, at least, should never be
Iounu III the camp Oh those VINO laDOred 80 many
years to prove Mr.. CLAY liar, gambler, muir
derer, purjured villain, and rotten statesman,
ready to sell the honor and interests of his coun-
try; they cannot take the benefit of this plea.
Whatever may be their motives, their actions are
now writing hypocrite upon their past lives.
The case is so plain that no pettfoggng and
quibbling can impose upon those who really loved
Mr.. CLAY, and steadfastly adhered to him through
all his adverse fortunes. They will not, they can
not initiate those, who now that he is gone, fix
their affections upon him, who did more than the
whole army of libellers and calumnators beside
to dishonor and defeat the great &c Harry of the
West" If any old Henry Clay whg has felt dis
posed to vote for BUCHANAN or help to put the
party in power, whose leaders for so many years
devoted themselves to the vllication of his Chez
acter we advise them to read the article to which
we have referred.-We think it will entirely cure
them.
