Mr-. Starr has frequently represented the town if

sreditably to himself. and satisfactorily to his con-
stituents. He was denounced and cruelly per-
secuted by Phineas T. Barnum. the father of
Loco-Focoism in the district, and the former
editor of the infamous Herald of Freedom,
which paper was. for several years the organ of
the Loco-Focus. Their abuse only had the
effect of securing to him tnore firmly the regard
‘and attachment ofthe people.. Batnurn’s ptpils
and associates, will now tindoubtedly repeat the
same experiment, and with like success. For
Mr. Starr will certainly be elected by a majori-
«Q of several hundred. His competitor, .Mr.
St. John, who was last year started under fa-
vorable auspices; with considerable reputation
for ability, disappointed both his friends and op-
ponents. He proved, upon trial. a very iuefii-
cient Senator. and the more sensible part ofthe
Loco-Focos are dissatisfied with his nomination,
Many of them Zexerted their influence to ptit in
nomination a more competent man, and came
veryncar accomplishing their object; but the in-
fluence ofthe Daubury Post Office-Jutito, turn-
ed the scale in favor of St.Jolin. and he received
the nomination by a majority of two or three
votes.

notable body. consisting of just sixty-thrcc per-
sbns. all told, assembled at Middletown, on

The Courant says, that the Convention was a
gosd_deal troubled in agreeing tipott a candidate
for the office of Stcretary of State. The com-
mittee rat-tinitiieritlsil Charles H. Pond, Esq". of
,Mllfi)fd; but one ofthe members declared that
he could say nothing for or against him, and so
the Convention concluded lie was not exactly the
man. and accorditigly dropped him. \Ve tiiust
cottfess that we are now better satisfied than
over. with the tioiriiuatiou of-,l\'lr. lliuuian, by
the \Vhigs. \Ve opposed it, to bcsitrc, in Cou-
vention, because, among other reasons, we
th.-tight behad too many friends atiiougthe Loco-
l*‘m‘:os; and we could not conscientiously vote

19tb inst. against the Sub-Treasury Bill. It is
said to have been one of the most able. instruc-
tive aud eloquentspeeches ever delivered by hitn.
The correspondent of the N. Y. Commercial
says: ‘

The Senate chamber was crowded to over-
flowing in every part. Sogreat was the anxiety
to hear the distinguished speaker, that for two
hours before t.he time of meeting, not a seat
could be obtained in the galleries. Hundreds
went away disappointed.

Aftera rriost beautiful exordium, Mr. Clay
laid down five propositions, which he said he
would maintain.

1st. That it was the deliberate purpose and
fixed design ofthe late administration. to estab-
lish a government liank—io be administered and
controlled by the Treasury department.

2d. That with a view to this end, there was
a settled purpose to overtlirow the whole banking
institutions ofthe cotintry.

3d. That the attacks were tirst confined to the
Batik of the United States, but were afterwards
extended to the state institutions.

4th. That the present executive has succeed-
ed to the principles plans and policy ofthe late
administration, and is pledged to perfect them.

5th. That the Sub-Treasury bill is intended
to execute the pledge. by creating a government
or treasury batik, adtninistered and controlled by
the executive department.

VVe shall endeavor to lay this speech before
our readers. as soon as we receive it.

Mr. Buchanan presented the instructions he
had received from the legislature of Pennsyl-
vania. to oppose the Sub-Treasury bill, atid ga ve
notice that he should move its pU.~‘ll)ttllCll'l8lll to
the next session of Congress. lt has been sup-
posed that the passing of the bill through the
Senate would depend on his vote.

The Canada bill is still before the house.

sequences must be disastrous in the extreme to

The old gentleman pondered for a moment,
asifat zi. loss to find terms to express himself,

Administration of Gen. Jackson, the universal
prosperity that pervaded the country, prompt-
ed us to plant hickory trees in token of our re-
spect for his great public services, and the high
estimation in which we held ; his 'tlemocr.'ttic

Violations of Neutrality.-—As a pendent to an
English list of violations of neutrality, the Star
puts the followingqueries:

Have not .En.t_rland and Fraticc conjointly
slaughtered the Turks in Navarino Bay. while
in profound peace with the Sultan? Has not
France sent her garrison of observation to An-
cona in Ital ,and to Athens in Greece‘! Has
not Englan openly put down Don Miguel with
her troopsin Portugal? Have not the British
Parliament sanctioned the British legion at Se-
bastian against the Spanish Pretender Carlos?
And so on ad iufinituin. Let the late Schlosser
tnatter pass for the present.

Common Scfzools.-Not only our civil. but our
literary institutions-—academies. colleges, and
professional seminaries. are dependent on com-
mon schools. If the children in the common
schools acquire a love for letters, it desi.e for
hiliger improvement; if they. in the elementary
schools, make their studies their delight. and
the acquisition and possession of truth their pu-
rest and highest. happiness. they will wish to go
from the common school to the academy. In
