From the for, going extracts we learn that General Clinch was deprived ol hia command in conaeqnenc. of tend intelligence communicated tr. the President nnd War Department, tli.it a lew months after his re movnl G n Jackson reflected, and perceived that to had committed on error, and attempted to correct it by tiie re-appointment ofGcn. Clinch, in the event that, Gen Scott, in Inn discretion, (after a very pointed i .lint to leave Florida , should return to the command of his department at Washington City; nnd that a few weeks niter this diseretionaiy order was issued, thepeo- j pie of Florida, through their Representative, the Hon ] J. M. White, importunately nnd “imperiously” do-1 manJed the immediate withdrawal of Gen. Scott, and ) (ns is dearly to he inferred from Mr W's letter,) the ‘•“Condition,tl appointment of Brigadier General Clinch!” Gen. Clinch, however, having previously tendered his resignation and determined to retire to civil life, for reasons which were esteemed by Gen. Scott “every way sold and sufficed,” declined this flattering tri bute to his “experience nnd military capacity,” and Withdrew from the service. If the voice of the people ot Florida had been addressed to Gen. Cl nrii person al.). us well ns < Jen. Jackson, he would not have turn ed a deatear to tlrdr cries. Ilistiohlc heart would have been touched by their piteous wailing, and, ns in times past, th ir habitations and their children would have found in hint “a refuge nnd a forties., ‘’ But he had nothing to swerve him (t om the course which he had de rotmin and to pursue, save the compliment and expressed desire of the Presid rnt, Gen Jackson; and this alone, tempting ns it was,proved insufficient He had tracked the Seminole through the swamps and ponds of his na tive clime; he had met him in his fastnesses, at his strong holds. upon his bnt tie-grounds; he had routed him with the dauntless spirit of a chieftain, on the banks of the Withlncoochee, at the battle of Oloklikaha. on the niarcli *rom Tampa Bay to Fort Drane. On all these occasions, and whenever nn opportunity was presented, he Imd displayed the vigilance, the courage, ibe hero tin. i\\e generosity ot the American Soldier; and he had every where perilled his life and appropriated his fortune lor the relief of the people anil the accommoda tion o! the Government! Yea, fellow-citizens, Gen. Clinch had done nil this, nnd more, liefbre he retired from the army. lii all contience he had done enough And the claims ofhis family were then superior, im measurably superior, to the glitter nnd renown of of i lice. For nearly 12 years he has now enjoy’ and the sweets ol private life. In the county of Camden he lias quietly dwelt with his family around him. There he has pur sued the occupation of a Farmer with that simplicity and dignity tor which he has been everywhere noted. Ami during a portion of this period of retirement from the tented fluid, he has occasionally obeyed the n-sdici ted call of th • people an,l discharged the public duties of the civilian. Fellow-citizens ‘ We should bepmrrf of the exalted character apd distinguished services of Gen Clinch. Indeed, ire owe him u debt of gratitude which we eon never adequately repay ! H s patriotic devotion nnd selt-sacrificing spirit, on numerous private and public occasions, entitle him to lotting honor. And let it not ‘ be said that the people of Georgia are ungrateful, or that they are incapable ol appreciating the worth of so 1 gallant a soldier and so excellent a citizen Go,‘then, to the polls in October next with that patriotic enthusi asm which is necessary to success, and evince by your votes that Gen Clinch has not lost the esteem anJ j confidence of the freeman of Georgia.

Mexico, > July 16, 1817. ) To Wm L Hodge, Esq., Editor New Orleans Commercial Bulletin: I perceive, through the medium of the numerous pa pers. which you had the kindness to send me, that an altercation has occurred between Gen. Pillow and his Tennessee Volunteers (the 2d regiment,) relative to the battle of Cerro Gordo, and I regret that the correspon dence hn made it necessary to explain my own position, action nnd instructions, during that fight. 1 have a rooted distaste for this kind of controversy, and am aware, that the pen of a commander is not al ways the best evidence, of the ch.valry ofhi.s command. I command the Ist regiment of Pennsylvania Volun teers—a body of men, equal, 1 think, to any in the serv ice, and which possess, at least, the admirable charac teristic, of always obeying orders. Upon the field at Cerro Gordo, my men acted in strict and steady obedience to every order given by me—con sequently, if their conduct w*as improper, it was through my imbecility, or cowardice, or the fault of the officer controlling me. My orders were received directly from Gen. Pillow, and w ore given to me in presence of my Lieut Colonel and the Gmerat s personal staff. A strict obedience to these orders, brought me before the batteries left in front, and when I arrived in position, I was compelled to about face my party, and man<puvre for the charge, by the rear rank. This although an error, would not have been fatal to the result, because my men had been drilled to the movement, and did not find themselves embarrassed by it. , I w’as ordered by Gen Pillow to tnke a position de signaled (to me) by his fingers, and was directed to reach that position by a countermarch from the right flank (which was in rear, (as we) came on the ground, left m front*] Tw’o hundred yards before (we reached) the position, the fire opened, and we w’alked through it, (and halted) where directed Gen. Pillow', w*hen I received these instructions, told me to hold the position, until he gave me orders to (mor*.) The first s gnal a greed upon w’ns a bugle, but, (as that) instrument could not be found, promised to send me an officer with the aider. ’The order never came. 1 sent my adjutant three times, to request permission to make the attack, and another officer once Gen Pillow could not be found My command was standing in full view, and at short bearing distance from these batteries, and was kept there until a private came to me, with instructions from Gen. P to withdraw my command. I refused to move unless the order was conveyed by an offeer, and re mained, until an officer carried the instructions. I had twelve menhot down in attaining the position, and during the whole of the work, mv men behaved bravely and Readily. They have, since that time, giv en me ample evidence of their quality, and 1 have never doubted them. 1 have merely stated simple facts, relative to the con diet and control of my own command Ido not criti cisr cren f***n P i.low’s plans or arrangements, and would not have wT.'rien thus far. had not the correspon dence or controversy some degree, the rep utation of mv command.

The movement in behalf of Gen. Taylor for the Presidency goes on, in various parts of the country, with unabntrd spirit. A meeting for this ptuposc was recently held nt Hnrrodflbnrg, Kentucky, the official proceedings of which wc find in the Louisville Journal. ” The meeting was remarkable,” mivs the Journal, ” ns being a spontaneous movement ofthc people, in which the leaders and the masses of both political par ties met and united.” The Preamble and resolutions adopted on the ocension present n graphic outline of the state into which the hmsiness of politics has fallen, having become pretty much an nffnir of caucuses, office-seekers nml oflic<*- holders, with all the embittered virulence ol personal contention for the spoilsol office ;it refers to General Taylor as a man admi’ahly calculated to restore n better spirit to our political sphere, and concludes a re view of that distinguished person's characteristics as fol- And whereas, we sec m this remarkable man a pow erful mind, with a judgment singula ily clear and correct, accompanied by unaasuning inolest\ f . great di nity and ervrgy of character and at the same time unpre tudirur plainness of the simplest citizen, and the exhi hitn iot patriotisn as pur? and unselfish ns that of Wash hiiton hilnself; and whereas, rill this is well calculated to point him out ns n man wo**thv of h’<rh office ; and is particularly ntrreeahle to candidate f>r the Presidency, from the fo-mnate efr cumstenc'* th*t he has been entirely aloof from the pa *t v conflicts of the cou'it r y. has formed no 44 entang ling allhnces” w th intriguing politicians or wire-work ers : rn 1 if elected would have no debts to pay with the office an I money of the poopb* for partisan election eering services : and whereas, as President he would he unfettered and could give full play to the honesty of*hi nature as the President of the whole country and not of a party ; nml whereas, the administration of such a man under such circumstances could not fail to be produc tive of much good to the country ; therefore— Hr solved.

Taylor to the Presidency, held a meeting in the State House at Springfield, on the 30th ult., and unanimously expressed their choice in the following rrsolutionu : Resolved, That we, the undersigned, members of the Illinois State Constitutional Convention, do, asindivid ink nominate Gen. Zachary Taylor as a candidaiefor the next Presidency of the United States. Resolved, That it be recommended to those in each Judicial Circuit, in this State, friendly to the election of Gen.

Using up the Whole Hog —ln proof ofth* progress of the arts throughout the whole extent of this country, we extract the following from a Cincinnati paper: “ We saw yesterday at the Drug and Chemical es tablishment of George II Bates &. Cos. a chrystalizod pyramid of Prussiate of Potash, that can be consid ered in no other light than a scientific, mechanical Cin cinnati curiosity. It is two and a half feet in height and eight and a half inches in diameter, with a base of til teen inches, weighing one hundred pounds. It rises in rough, irregular layers, each layer having the most per- 1 feet ami finished edge imaginable. No sculptor or art ist with keenest tools could make finer work The col or is a heautilul orange. This article of commerce is J made extensively by these gentlemen and exported east lor the use of dyers and others. It may be curious and instructive to the render to know that Prussiate of Pot ash is made of potash, old shoes, hoof of cattle, woolen rags, and all refuse animal matter. But the main thing used by them is the refuse of the hogs killed in this vi- , I cinity.viz: the hoofr.hair, blood, and crackling.,'! lard, | so there is nothing left of the hog after he passes through the hands ol our population.” A Now Invention. Th” Bucks County Intcll genrer * ay*, a icw days since a wagon hung upon invisible spiral springs, con structed upon a newnnd singular plan, made its appear ance in our streets, and attracted some attention. We I took a ride in it. and were delighted with it* easy and ; graceful motion, especially in c ossmg gullies or rough , f dun.l—it having more the tyotion ol a light boat in I gliding over the wave*, than a vehicle upon wheels. The springs are made of brass wire, and though weighing only lour pounds, will carry a load of a quar ! ter of a ton, and can easily be varied in size to support any weight desired. There is also connected with them i an invention to prevent the carriage wheel touching the [ body in turning, wh eh is a great improvement. Meas ures, we understand, are in progress for securing a pa tent tor this important invention. Iron in Pennsylvania. In lfl-16. there were 366,056 tons of Iron produced in Pennsylvania by 316 furnaces The value of this iron was $'d3,023.<M0, equal to the annual produce of the Mines in Mexico in their palmiest days, and double the j produce ol those mines now The value of the coal, j mined in Pennsylvania, during the name year, was scarcely less than the value of the iron manufactured. ! * mineral or agricultural product* like these lie the j j sources of* nation's wealih; nnd not in gold und silver I I mines, which enervate the possessors instead ol improv ing them F.x Paper.
