h'i'vin the Pennsylvania Democrat. Van Buren .lieu, Look Here ! The Van Buren men are determined not to do ustice to Gen. Harrison in any matter. They J s3 y that he received a small appointment from John Adams, and is, therefore a federalist. There w erc otner appointment about these times that be interesting to an enquirer. We add some ot them, beginning with the one referred Tuesday, June 27, 1798. “ Gentlemen of the Senate I nominate WM. H. HARRISON, Esq. of Virginia, to be Secretary of the territory northwest of the River Ohio. JONH ADAMS. “Gentlemen of the Senate:” “I nominate GEORGE WASHINGTON, of Mount Vernon, to be Lieutenat General and Commander-in-chief of all the armies raised, or to be raised, in the United Slates.” JOHN ADAMS. “ V nlted Slates , July the 2 d, 1798. From the Executive Journal of the United States, Senate, page 441 “I nominate WM. H. HARRISON, to be Governor of Indiana territory, from the 12th dav Mar next, when his present commission will ex pire. THOS. JEFFERSON. And again— “ I nominate WM. H. HARRISON, of Indi ana, to be a commissioner to enter into any trea ty, or treaties which may be necessary, with any Indian tribes northwest of the Ohio, and within the territory of the United States, on the subject of the boundary or lands. THOS. JEFFERSON.” The message containing those nominations was transmitted to the Senate 3d February 1803. Battle of the Thames—Grand Rally. The Steubenville Gazette, (Ohio,) proposes, in order to be lully prepared for the State election on the 13th of October, and for the Presidential election on the 30lh October, that a GRAND RALLY OF THE HARRISON DEMOCRA CY be held at the county seat of each county in Ohio, on the sth of October, to celebrate the an niversary of the Battle of the Thames ; and, with full preparation, to adjourn to meet at the ba.lot boxes. The idea is a good one. Lost Mails. —The Postmaster of Charleston, South Carolina, reports to the Post Office Depart ment. that the mails for that office, which are missing in consequence of the loss of the steam boat North Cato ina on the night of the 25th July, are those from New r York of the 21st and 22d July—from Boston of 30th anc!2ist—from Phil adelphia of the 22d—from B dtimore of the 22d, 23d and 24—from Washington of the 22d and 23J —and from Petersburg ol 23d, 24th and 25th, t Palace FcaxiTunr —It has been ascertained that the costly imparted foreign dishes of pate de foie gras, made at Strasburg, Germany, by excruciating geese to death by stuffing their livers, and the equally expensive delicacy also of dindon aux truffles, or turkeys sluffed with truf fles, imported from France, and'both of which luxurious princely dishes are so much prised by our worthy President at the While House, at Washington, utterly unknown in the republican log cabin of Gen. Harrison at North Bend. He finds homely fare, and bacon and hominy, wash ed down with hard cider, quite, goad enough for plain democrats. — New York S/ar, The receipts of the Treasury from January Ist to July Ist, exclusive of Treasury notes amoun ted to §8.060,000.

Jackson” and all • more re cently supporters of Martin Van Buren,” who say vbey cannot longer support him, but will sup port W. H, Harrison. Those are significant signs indeed- It is stated that Senator Tallmage has com menced suits against the editor of ihe Washing ton Globe for a libel, against the New York Eve ning Post for its republication, laying his dam ages at §20,000.

OBIT V A K Y . Lied at Blrdsville, Buike county,on 19th July, Mrs. Mary Jane, consort of Col, Henry P. Jones. Death, the cloud that comes to shade. Comes the blooming flower to fade, Comes to change life’s scan of light. Into sorrow’s darkest night; Comes over human hopes to lower. Blighting dear affection’s power. “In the midst of life we are in death,” comes with its solemn, heavy truth, upon the soul. The highest joys bear in their train the deepest suffer ing. Sorrow is man’s only' sure inheritance on earth. It buds over him in the cradle, attends on his progress through life, and lies down with him in the grave. Around this sacred place, we all meet, and acknowledge in tears the will of Heaven. He has declared that in his judgments, we shall read his providence, and that for the want of the one, we shall not forget the other. The grave, the open grave, stands ever ready to hide from our sight the loved ones of earth. The infant seeks its sleep to save its tenderness the pains which it has not yet known. The youth lies down in its repose just as the brightness of the ideal world is beginning to be- blended with the shades of the real. Manhood surrenders its pride and stiength, when the struggles of ambition, and the mortifica tion of life are corroding the joys of the heart, and beginning to shut out the soul’s prospect of Heav en. Age, too, rests there it* weakness, that it may rise up in second infancy. But oh ! why does the mother with her endear ments clustering thick around her home, leave that home for the grave, where we cannot go. Ask the little orphan," that cries its sorrow to sleep, why its mother Ins left it so soon, and its heaving breast will only give back the half-stifled moan. Ask the father, as he watches its slumbers, why' his companion has left her tender pledge, to be reared in his ruder embrace, but no answer comes to unsettle the deep gloom of his spirit. Ask those who have loved, blessed, and watched over her, why' she is taken from our midst; and all they can say, is but to make us love the grave. Goodness, affection, friendship, and all the virtues that endear one as a mother, wife, relative and friend, could not save whom death loved too well. But the voice of mercy' calls to the living form, that dear form that has so latelv been returned to its kin dred dust. And say, beloved dead, bast thou ceased to gaze on him, who pledged to walk with thee through all the storms of the journey r of life, though that life was so short ? or to watch over the little babe, that weeps for its absent mother, but knows not that she has forever gone. Art thou foigetful of the anguish of our souls ? Thou didst not muse our infancy, but th y kindness and gentleness blessed our later years, and sought to fill the void of a mo ther’s death ; and therefore we loved the living, and now mourn the dead, though far from thy grave, a dweller among strangers, affection lingers fondly around thy last dwelling place. And wou-d y-ears bring us together again on earth, those years, though many, would at the end seem short. Bui farewell, since thou hast left us forev er. Mavest thou find A home that is quiet, and bless’d w'ith repose. And a love that is always in bloom. The affection which we bear thee, will long open a deep fountain of grief, buc may its waters be turned to the streams of heavenly love. Thy vir tues, so bright in thy family and among thy friends, will praise thee on earth, and we trust, bless thee in Heaven. * She has left a babe 9 months old. marine intelligence.
