Since the above article w.1s put in type, the

and so well calculated to give the enterprise a

L3? Some bluster has been made about New
York city patriotism in voting $5000 for the
subsistence and comfort of volunteers for Mexi-
co. It is a pity that such an ebulition should fail
ofits end from any adhesion to tholingcrs through
which it. was intended to pass, a fate, which the

vor among the friends of an upright; and indepen-
ldant Judiciary.
l The success of the Vfhigs this Fall has pro-,
’duced its usual effect upon the politicians in this‘
, city. The wire—pullers and the would be rulers
; o the party have commenced the work of Pres-
’ ident makings. Clay balls and suppers are giv-
‘ en in abundance. The friends of VVebster and
McLean are also at work. Now this is all
wrong. VVait till the time has come to make
the nomination, and then let the rank and file of
ting——-decide who shall be the canditatc. It is
impossible as yet. to tell V.’l’l:‘.t the issues in the
next. Presidential canvass will be. Undoubted-
ly the \Vl1igs will adhere to the principles which
they now maintain-—but new questions may
arise and other principles may be added to those
which are now supported by the party. It is

is now a good representative of the \Vhig party

There is no local news of particular impor-
tance. The trial of a man by the name of Cal-
vin Russ for the murder of his wife has occupied
l the Court of Oyer and Termincr this week.-—
§ Tlie tlefenceset up is insanity, of course. There
is so much sickly sympatlty for criminals in this
' city that he will probably escape conviction, and
will for some cause or other give him a new tri-
al, and this will be cquivalent to an acquittal.
' A man who has plenty of money can commit
murder with impunity. Before doing the deed.
however, he should be careful to exhibit some
little signs of insanity-—r-uch as walking rapidly,
talking loudly to himself, staring wildly, and it
i might. be proper for him to put. his coat; on wrong
»side out once or twice, and walk about Lore
glicadccl, etc.
these directions, he may commit murderiu broad

The Nzz/tire sons ofNew England, re's lingin
Brooklyn had a mectinga short time ago for
the purpose of forming a No\v England Society
similar to those now existing in otltercities. It
was well attended and there was no mistaking
the character of those present. They bore un-
mistakable marks of their Yankee origin. Ab
sconce seems to have added to the intensity of
their love for New England and her free institu-
tions.
Professor Mnffit is now preaching in Brook-
lyn. Thus far he has not met. with his usual
success. Ibclieve the Professor has come to
the conclusion that Brooklyn is a very wicked
city and unless a rcl'ormation is soon effected she
will meet with a judgment equallyfearful with
that which befell "the cities of the Plain.” His
style of oratory is peculiar to himself. I cannot
say that-it is very effective or pleasing. There
is too much action and too little feeling in his
manner. Hence he does not receive perhaps
his due credit forearnestness and s.ncerity. But
tastes differ.
Now having again broken the ice, I will on-
deavor for the future to be a little more atten-
tive in dotting down now and then what may in-
terest you and your readers. In :1 country vil-
lage a person may hear some neiw.-'—some few
incidents woxth mentioning, but it is impossible
to see or hear anything in this huge, overgrown
city. Ifa man commits suicide here, or is mur-
dered no one thinks of it ten minutes after the
event has happened. A man loses his individu-
ality aud is simply counted as one ofthe mass.
You must therefore excuse me for dealing in
generalities. Yazviu-:1~:.
The Cabinet in Was/LingloIz..—Ot1r readers,
says the U. S. Gazette, may be able to un-
derstand the reason of the movements relative
to the Lieutenant General Message, in the
House of Representatives, at Witshington, and
other matters that appear mysterious, if there
should be truth in, the report which we have
in a private letter from VVashington, viz :-that
Mr. Benton has got full possession ofMr. Polk,
and that Mr. VValker and his friends are in an
other clique. in which is included the President.
A small paragraph in the Washington Fountain,
a few days since. stating that: Mr. Walker was
about to resign, may have been an intimation of
duty to the Secretary from his opponents. Our
information leads to a belief that there will be
a rupture in the Cabinet very soon.

JAYNE‘S ALTERATIVE.
Rheumatism--The propril=.tor has not pre-
;scribed this preparation in a great many cases of
iRheumatism, but in every case where it was
‘used until the system became affected by the
, medicine, the disease was removed.
Gout.——A number ofcases of Gout have been
. cured by this Preparation. In one of these
cases the man had been afllicted with it so so-
; verely for thirteen years, as to entirely disable
. him from business, and for five months immedi-
iatoly previous to his taking the Alterative he had
I been confined to his room; but before he had
, finished the third bottle, he was enabled to walk
I about the streets, and soon after returned to his
._ business. from which he had been excluded by
his afllictions.
Dropsical Swellings.—This medicine increas-
es tho powers of digestion, excites the absorbents
into healthy exercise, by which wnterous or
Calcareous depositions, and all unnatural en-
largements are reduced. It ‘imparts tone and
vitality to the whole system, removing sick and
morbid headaches, giddiness, wandering mania,
and nervous affections.
In fact, in every case where the medicinehas
, been taken for some time. no matter for what
‘lpurpose, the general health of the patient has
always beeen improved by it.
In conclusion. the proprietor would say that
some ofthe most. astonishing cases of Skin Dis-
I eases, Cancer, Bronchocele, ani Scrofula, have
gbcen cured by this medicine. tltathave everbeen
‘recorded. \V. E. BISSELL, Agent.
