S'l‘A’l‘l-2 COl\‘Vlt‘.1\"I‘ION.—-Out‘ readers are al-
ready aware, that the Whig State Convention
for the nomination ofcandizlates to be supported
at the Spring election, is to be held in the city
of Hartford on the 16th proximo. Tothe ll-'0‘
ceediitgs of this convention we look forward
with more than ordinary interest. The gmllf‘
men there put in nomination, will no doubt be
‘compelled to take the field against several sets
ofcandidates. They must. therefore, be select-
ed not only with regard to their fitness, bttt with
due attention to their acct-ptablcttess to the
freeman of the State. This will render the
work of making up a ticket somewhat delicate
and difiicult. But we trust that all difiiculties
will be overcome, and the important object kept
steadily in view.
It is important that cvey town should be
represented, and the convention fully attended.
for an impulse must there be given which will
6’ felt throughout the state. and stir up every
Whig to action and to duty. Our opponents
are using every means to turn to their advantage
the dissonsions in our ranks, and their encrgirs
are on the stretch to regain tlteir ascendancy in
the state. They already boast in advance of
their success 2 This. though strikingly charac-
teristic ofthe patty.s.ltould admonish usthat tbei r
ovurweening confidence maybe but the off-.priug
of their zeal and perseverance. Of the result
the whigs need have no fear ifthey but do their
duty at the ballot box. However disheartning
may have been the effect of executive follies.
we have suffered no decrease of numbers, and
a strong pull altogether, will fix the destinies of
old Connecticut about right for another year.
We have no news from \Vashiugton later
than Thursday, owing to failures of the mail.
Tm: A1'ror.'rtoNtu1~;n'r.—l4‘rotn what we can
gather it seems to be understood, that the Com-
mittee who have the subject in hand, will report
to Congress 68,000. as the proper ratio, and
that Congress will probably adopt the recom
trtendation. This number it is claimed will
leave the smallest aggregate fraction unrepre-
sented ofany between 60.000 and 80.000.
A ratio of 63.000 will reduce the wltole num-
ber ofthe House of Representatives frotn 242, to
223-making a reduction of 19. The old
States including Vermont, Kentucky, Ohio and
Tennessee, will lose 4l representatives. The
7 new States will gain 16. According to the
proposed rule, Connecticut will lose 2 represen
tatives,.Rhode Island 1, New York 5. Penn-
sylvania 3. Virginia 6, Kentucky 3. Ohio 3.
Massachusetts 2. Marylantl 2. North Carolina
4. South Carolina 3. It leaves an aggregate
fraction of 95 members. Iftbis uuinber is taken
and the 9 fractional members distributed among
the states having the largest individual fractions_
the apportiontnent will be as fair as it is prac-
ticable to make it.
THE. 'I‘tu.u. or John C. COL'rfor the mur-
tier of Mr. Samuel Adams. corumttnced on
on Wednesday last. The interest excited in
the public mind has in no wise abated since the
time when the murder was first Commilletl, as
was fully testified by the immense number of
persons who were present and endeavoring to
force admittance to the court room. Long be-
fore the doors were opened, every avenue was
tlironged. and otvingto the very small size of
court room, very few besides the tales men sum-
moned for the occasion. the witnesses in the
cause, the members of the bar, and reporters
were present.
The appearance oftbe prisoneris not much
changed since the last time be was in court,
but there was 8 perceptible restlessness in his
manner which indicated a mind ill at ease.’
The’. Estzclrcquer Bill.—-Thedccided and
seemingly unqualified opposition of Senator
Huntington of this State to the Exchequer
Bill, and that too on a merequesticn of refer-
ence, has occasioned much surprise and re-
gret on the part of our political friends, who
have been hoping-—an\'iously hoping——that
the suggestions of the President and his able
cabinet would be acted upon in such it man-
ner as would afford the people a safe and
convenient currency, and restore confidence
both among the business men of the countt‘_v
and those who at present wield its political
power. The message ofthePrcsident is popu-
lar among the people,cspecially the whig por-
tion of them—and they——the mass of them, if
not the whole ofthem._are disappointed that the
spirit ofthat message is not reciprocated by
all of the majority in Congress, as we have
reason to believe it is by a part—-—and we are
happy toihear it stated that all or nearly all
of the Connecticut members of the House are
much disposed to adopt the recommendations
ofthe President, after the proper guards and
restrictions, which the wisdom of the two
Houses of Congress may propose, have been
adopted. The people do not believe that
the President is tenacious about the success
of every part of his plan-—on the contrary,
the impression is strong thatthe President is
disposed to concede much for a final settle-
ment of the question—in short that be is
willing that his plan should be moulded into
such form as the “wisdom and patriotism of
Congress may devise”——for he expressly
declares that he did not submit it " in any
overtveening confidence in the sufiiciency of
his own judgement.—N. Hm,-en Prrllcrrliwm.
We copy the above article from the Palla-
dium. not with a fault finding, captions dispo-
sition, for we are not want to exercise these feel-
ings towards our worthy compeer. Mr. Bob-
cock. The spirit of concilation running through
the article we approve. Mr. Huntington has
without doubt, manifested a little haste in let-
ting otfhis denunciation of the President’s plan.
".‘he Message, says the Palladium, is popular
with the mass ofthe Whigs. This perhaps is
true. hntwc are inclined to doubt that its pop-
ularity is anfiicient to cast into oblivion the
rudenuiand abruptrms of -the President at
the Extra Session. We are inclined to doubt
too that. the mass have so far forgotten this
treatment ofltis accidency as to be greatly “dis-
crppoz'nlc(l” or hurt at the course of ottrSenator.
The di.-position manifested by him, perhaps
percipitately. is one that is latent-in the _commu-
nity, and if they ‘var: populi could be‘heartl and
obeyed. we doubt not but that the experi,-.
ment in question would be sent back to its origin
with a spice ofthe feeling inculcated by execu-
tive teacbtngs. \Ve are willing to give credit
for all that is commendable in Mr. Tylrr, and
with this willingness we have spoken favorably
of his Message, As we have said be-fort‘. so
long as In is actuated by the sfpiiit cxltibitc-d in
his message, we will give -him the time o'
day’. but we must in:-‘ist upon. plar«inr,1 public
sentiment in its true light, and in exercising a
prudcttl reserve towards a man, to ho has once
wontouly betrayed the confidr-ttr~e ttfltis friends.

ARRIVAL OF ’I’I'IE BRl'1‘:\NNlA.
The s:carnerBritar.riia arrived at Boston on
Sunday evening, about 5 o'clock. The dates
from London are to the 3d, anti frtttrt I..i\'erpool
totbc -‘lib in-t. The aspect of financial and
cotntttercialaliitirsis sornewhut more favorable.
The news first in importance is the appoint-
ment of Lord Asltburtou as a special Minister
to the United btutes fat the purpose cfrntc-ting
into ncgociations for the final settlement of all
dillicultics between the two countries.
From the Jlforning C/rronicle.
Lord Ashburtnu's itpprtll”.-ltn(‘l'.tl has been
favorably rrcetve«'l in commerciztl circles,nnd
given atone of confidence to the holders of
state stocks. Hts lordship’s appointment will
be acceptable to theA meric.-ins, as the Messrs.
lurings have been m=.tn_y years most exten-
sively €’l1g?‘tg‘t'(.I In American Z:tflitll'$, and, in
fact, the agents of the Arm-.rican government
in monetrtry opt-t‘:x'.ioris. I-lis lordship is
besides a cittz rt of the great republic, and
one of the rgrcatest land proprictors,too, in
the State. of Ponnsvlt-aunt. Ellis talents as a
man of business are \\'t-'ll krtctvn. He is one
ofthc largr-.~st householders in the U. S.. and
lady As'uburtou (lute Miss l3:nghnm) is an
.=\rneric-an by birth. VVL-ll versed in the
history and value of state bonds, and the
pe'ulmt' structure of the American constitu-
tion. be will be able to press upon the atten-
tion ofthe Atnericans the necessity of punc-
tual provision for the public engagerncnts.
The repudiation doctrines about which so
much has been said in this country. caused no
excitr-.ruent whatever in London. The papers
scarcely allude to the sttl:jr.ct at all.
There is nothing later from China than has
been received direct at N. York
The ltoistcrotts wcallter on the English coast
had prevented the packets from leaving at their
ztppoinletl time.
The attentions shown to Lord Morpeth in
this country are $[)t.li€ll of by the English press
especially the more liberal portion, with much
pleasure.
President 'I‘yler’s Message had been rzceived
and read with much interest and satisfaction.
Among the. passengers in the Britannia are
.\1r. Charles Dir.-kcus‘the celebrated author and
his lady, Mr. Moscly, bearer '.tft.lCSpt1l.ClJeS. and
Earl r\1ulgrave. I _
The news froru Turkey and the East indicate
furthertlisturlmnces. Tlwre has been a change
ofmiuistry at Constantinople.
There llntl been many frightful rail road ac-
cidents in England attended with extensive loss
oflifc.
The King oftltc French opened the Session
nfthe Chambers on the 27th ult. V
The speech ofthc King excited very little
attention in Paris. The whole afiair of the
opening ueut off in an unusually sombre inan-
uer—no feeling displayed on the part of the
king. nor on that of the deputies.
Intelligence has been received at Constan-
tinople. by way of 'I‘rebizond, of a victory
gained by the Circassians over the Russians
the most signal and decisive, it is said that
has occurred since the beginning of the war.
A large expedition consisting of 30,000
men had been disembarked on the coast,
with it view ofdestroying toe grain, tvhich
had been collected by the Circassiaus after
the harvest, when a storm having suddenly
risen drove the ships from their anchorage.
The Circassians availing themselves of
the opportunity, nssnilcd them fiercely on
every side and the Russians, separated from
their stores, which had been carried out to
sea, were compelled tocommcnce .1 disastrous
retreat through a country consisting entirely
of mountain. forests and defile.
With the exception of 2,000 who escaped
to Anapn, the whole ofthe thirty thousand
were killed or made prisoners.
From Egypt we learn that the new Tarifi
ofduties has been put in force in Carlo, which
authorizes the exaction of 9 per cent. interior
dttty on exports, anti 2, per cent. interior duty
on itnports, whilst an additional3 per cent, im-
portand export dutv must be paid at Alexandria.
Pos't'Po.\’r:.ut~:rv'r.-—'I‘l:e convention called by
the Hartford Eagle, to meet in that city on the
2d ofFebruary, has been postponed to the 22d.
In allusion to this subject. the New Haven
Palladium says :-—The Eagle Convention is
postponed from the 2d to the 22d of February,
so as to afford, as we understand it. Messrs.
Holbrook and I-Iinrnan, an opportunity to ma-
neuver with more cffectlor their own interest
than they could do if they should make a nom-
inatiou before the meeting of the conventions of
the other two parties. What straight jbrward
chaps these Eagle men are! We suppose the
plan now to be, in holding their Convention last.
to offer Mr. Hinman to the locus and agree to”
make no_nomination,' iftbey will take him. If
they refuse, then the whig Convention, which
assembles the week after. will be amtfoat‘-ltctl
and betttfercd the mighty influence of tVIr. Hin-
tnan and the Eagle, ifhe might be permitted to
remain on the Whig ticket. lftbc whigsthrow
him overboard, then look out, if not foran earth-
quake, at least an Eagle ticket for State otiicers
I--which will be heralded forth as a measure
devised and executed for the pure, disinterested
and loyal purposes of sustaining Mr. Tyler in
Connecticut against the assaults of wbigs and
loco ln(‘0s !

Vegetable Manure by Fer-meutation
SECURED BY PATENT.
NEW Invention has been made to pro-
duce as much Manure as we please, in 3
very short time. without any Cattle——n manure
as rich as Farm Manure, and more lasting, and
at very little cost. I
All ligucous plants. straw from every black
grain, all kinds of weeds. roots, sea grass. in
fact, every thing belonging to the vegetable
kingdom, green. or dry, can be converted into
{XJ2ll'lUIC
This Manure is a composition of animal
mineral and vegetable substances. consequent-
ly designed by nature for the natrtment cf the
plants.
The secret of the Invention to make this
Manure is uccurrately described and specified irt
my method. The preparation ofsaid manure
is very simple and easy. Farmers by follow-
in my method can exactly count upon certain
success.
'l‘o facilitate the purchase of my method. the
price is fixed at the following exceeding mod-
CTBIG ffllfl-—
Cleared lattd. under 30 acres 38 : more than
30. ten cents per acre additional. On payment
ofthis small sum the Method becomes the pro-
pertyof the purcha.-fer forever.
Therefore, Agents having all due authoriza-
ll0h. and furnished with printed copier of the
Method, have been appointed in all the princi-
pal towns in each State. His Agents will make
public experiments during which they “ill sell
and ‘l¢=,ll\'Cl' to any farmer that wants to pur-
chase a Copy of my method. .
{give notice that the pamphlets of my meth-
(,d.a.e all signed by m_v own hand writing, and
sealed, and can be obtained only by myself or
my Agents authorized for this purpose. And that
every method circulated or sold by any other
persons I declare here by false and counterfeit.
Farmers! Consider well the great advan-
tage which this system offers you. By this
method. you will have a manure possessing
all the elements offecundity, and by the timely
and well repeated application oftbe same you
will soon produce a total change in the Agri-
cultural world.
Public Experiment in the State of
Connecticut.
Many farmers in this state having signified
their desire to see an experiment of my Ma-
nure, I have sent an Agent. Mr. Chas. Baer.
for making a public experiment. which takes
place on the premises of Mr. Altsolem Day.
Norwalk, Old “fall, where all who are inter-
ested in this Method, are invited to come and
see the result. andjudge for themselves of the
merit of the invention.
The material to reduce into Manure is Salt
Meadow Hay. The heap was collected on the
8th December. It will be ready forinspectton
on the 3:! of January. The Agent named by
me for the State of Connecticut and Long Is-
land, is Mr. SAMUEL MILLS. in N0!’W3llt. Cl

my method can come to the above named agent
