Mr. John Jay Hyde, who has been hereto-
fore known in connection with the New London
Gazette, has again come before the public at
the head ofa new \Vhig paper,just established
in New London, under the title ofthe People’s
Advocate. The Advocate has our best wishes
for its success.

 

For the Gazette.
FRIDAY, August 31, 1810.

Appearances in the whig meeting last even-
ing, seemed to promise that numbers would at-
tend the coming convention at Hartford, and l
have some confidence that such hopeful profes-
sions will not end in mere talk. Such a crisis
as the present, we have never before witnessed.
And atnong the most innocent and effective
means for securing the desirable results of ar-
resting the progress of despotism. I belie.-vc, is
the assembling of numbers. who, living in re-
mote sections, have important interests in com-.
mon, and which can be secured only by the liar-
monious action ofthe whole. Those who shall
thus assemble, will not fail of receiving impres-
sions of the worth antl magnitude ofthese iiiter-
ests, which nothing else cold give. And after
having seen face to face. antl heard the voices
of thousands of compatriots, who were their bro-
titers in an interesting sense, and whose welfare
or distress must be their own, antl who were de-
pendent on them and on whom they were large-
ly dependent, they would scarcely fail of return-
ing with enlarged and enlightened views, and
be the better prepared for whatever might be
done in securing the welfare of the whole. It
would seem that the people of Norwalk were
urged to action as by a whip of scorpions.—-
Surely, they cannot need indricements who
have just seen their correspondence, however
important or delicate, and their property so far
as it may be committed to the public mail, by
an act of arbitrary power. thrust into the hands
of a stranger—an honest and capable man he
may be, but dishonest and incapable for aught
that their oppressors care. Such things, surely.
should stimulate to activity. until all that can
be.,. is done to change the administration of our
government. and until by a change in the con-
stitution, this vast and dangerous amount of ap-
pointing power, now in the hands of one man,
shall be restored to its original and true owners,

Tim NORTII CAROLXNA SENATORS.---Tile
Raleigh Register, referring to a paragraph cop-
ied a few days since, from the New York Ex
press. SHYS Z

“ This report orignated thus, we presume :
The mail containing the resignations in
qtiestion caught fire from the sparks of the lo-
comotive, and many packages were almost
entirely burnt; and among them, that in
which these letters were. This was instant-
ly done by our Senators, and their resigna-
tions are now in the archives of the State,
where they: will remain until the Legisla-
ture meets.

Our Senators notified the Governor that
they had retained copies oftheir letters for
publication. Accordingly they appeared in
the Van Buren organ of this city almost
simultaneously with their receipt at the Ex-
ecutive office. The object was evidently to

"make a direct appeal to the people, and get

tip an excitement, under the effects of which,
it was hoped the State might be carried for
Van Buren. But it was no go. The bant-
ling of our Senators fell still born; and oh!
the ungratefulness of party, their former ad-
mirers are now charging Messrs. Brown
and Strange with being instrumental in the
Waterloo defeat of Van Buren & Co. in this
State I" A

BOARDING ROUND.
Extracts from the Report of the Secretary of
the Board of Common Schoolsin Connecticut,
May. 1840.
“The practice of ‘Boarding Round’ prevails
very generally out ofthe cities and central dis-
tricts. I am aware that under some circum-
stances, the practice has its advantages inde-
pendent of the economy ofits arrangement. But
on the whole, I am satisfied the interest of the
school would be promoted, by n more liberal
view of the Subject, which should allow the
teacher to enjoy a regular antl quiet home, “ml
was enable him to devote a portion of his time

proper education and refinement to enlllle lllem

tionable. Parents are beginning to inquire if
this very practice is not one of the reasons why
so many- young and inexperienced ‘persons are

STANZAS—THE PAST.
There was a time when I did taste
The sweets oflife, but it is past,
And sorrrow’s vail with sudden haste
Is o'er me cast.
There was a time when I did know
Afl'ection’sjoys, but they are fled-
The heart from which their streams did flow
Is with the dead .'
There was a time when life had charms
To win :my love, but it is gone.
No mellowing tint its landscape warms,
I am alone!
There was a time when bright-eyed [lope
Before me smiled, ‘oedecked with flowers-
The future. uow seems but a group
Of weary hours.

The yielding heart. e'er tis cnsiiarctl I

LATER FROM CANTON‘
VVe are itidebtcd, says the N. Y. Express,
to Capt. Cole, of the ship Asia, for Canton
papers to the llth of April. All Foreign
trade was stopped on the lust of Mnrcli, in
consequence of an edict regarding the death

of the Empress of China. It was feurt-d at
first by the American merchants, that. the

of time, btit by sending petitions into the city,
the trade was opened again on the 13th of
April. The market was quite bore of coun-
try packcd teas, and the ships that were load-
ing, cotild with difiiculty finish their pur-
chase. Canton made tea was scarce and high.
It was rather tincertain whether the. ships
with cargoes of cotton would be secured.
An order went down to the Bongo to stop the
two last ships that arrived at W'l’inmpon, but
before it reached them the ships had passed.
Theship Rosscius had been ordered away
from Whampoa, but it was thought if the
rest were secured she would be allowed to
remain.

The American merchants had sent the
most of their valuables to Macon, and ex-
pected to be ordered away in three or four
weeks. '

THE ELECTIONS.
RIIODE lsmxo EL1:c'r1oN.—'I_‘lie Provi-
ence Journal gives the names of Represen-
tatives elected from all the counties in that
State, excepting live——from which it appears
that 49 ¥Vl1igs have been elected, and ‘.23

ty in the Senate-, makes a majority of 37 on

i
joint ballot.

NORT}I CAitoI.I.\'A'—Vv7e are enabled,
says the Journal of commerce, to give com-
plete returns ofthe North Carolina election,
in comparison with four previous elections,
the result, we are sure, will be satisfac-
tory to every whig, however it may be to
persons of the other party. Morehcad, the
whig candidate for governor is elected by a
majority of 8416; there is a whit: majority
of 6 in the Senate, and 30 in the House —-on
joint ballot 36. In the last legislaturegthere
was a whio; majority of4 in the Senate, and
10 in the I-Iouse——on joint ballot, 14. Dil-
ferencc 22. In other words, the whigs have
gained 11 members tnore than they have
lost, viz : 1 Senator and 10 Representatives.
This, of course, determines the election of
a whig to the U. S. Senate, in the place of
the Hon. Bedford Brown, whose term of
service expires on the 4th of March next.
The number of votes polled is unprecedented.
Our footings comprise 70,072 and there are
two counties of which only the majorities
are given. The full vote ofthese two counties
will increase the aggregate number of votes
to 80,000. Two years ago. 58,006 votes
were polled, in 1836, Gov. 05,568; and at
the Presidential election in the same year,
only 50,331, showing an increase of 30,000
votes.

ILL1Nois.—We here give all the returns
we have received, from which it will be seen,
that although we have lost the legislature,
we may still have a small majority of the
popular vote. Should the majority, howev-
er, be not more than one thousand against
us, we may claim the State as certain for
Harrison in November, as a change of a-
bout six votes in each county would give
him the majority. Van Burt-n’s majority in
1836 was about 1000; so that if it now but
1000,-‘pod we do not think it can be morc,——
we shall, when the tremedous power of the
general and state governments, which we
have had to contend against, added to the
vast number of votes almost universally cast
against us by unnaturalizedforeigners, is da-
ly estimated, have achieved a real 'L"fCf07'_7/,flllCl
given our friendsabroad no reason to charge
us with a dcrilection of duty, or to question
the attachment of the substantial population
of Illinois to the brave old chief whom it de-
lights to honor—-Peoria. (Ill.) Reg.

 

INDIANA.-—Go\'. Bigger’s majority is less than
it at first appeared—about 8.500. Licut. Gov.
Hall's is about 9,000. Some of the reported ma-
'ot‘ities were exaggerated. The Legislature
stands as follows:
