holy and patriotic purposes.
1. “ In all eases of mere preferences of men —party
exj/edieney requires that such preferences should be
surrentleretl lor the liar/nmy of the party.
‘2. In all eases of mere titiferences in tie mode /if

3 In all eases even of policy, when neither the Con

require concession to party union.

the duty on saddles is thirty five per cent. Now, it
we are not mitflaki n, the duty on a saddle costing ten
dollars. Would amount ut this rate to precisely three

calculation, lately in vogue, hut we think it will be

Mr. C. has won his way to lie best a flections and

him for more than twenty years past. This lias
gained for him a solid and enduring reputation, in

support it, dwindh s nlo insignificance, and will
soon sink into obscurity and oblivion. Mr. Calhoun's

A WOMAN LOST.
We copy the following from the Southern Miscel
lany, published at Madison, in this Stats: "About
l wo weeks since a report was in circulation in our
to.vn. that a young woman residing on hard-labor
creek, had, in a fit of insanity, strayed into the
swamp, several days previous, deel iring her intention
lo drown herself; and that her friends had been un
able to gain any tidings of her. Several of our cili
ze is repaired to the vicinity of the swamp, an/I bs
vv.' understood a diligent search was made for her,
but without success. A* it is hardly possible she
could have remained so long in the swamp, or died
or drowned herself in the creek, without her holy
being dis overe.l, it is hop'd that 6he may have wan
dered from the settlement and yet be alive.
"We have been requested to m .ke this statement,

The Kentucky Gazette notices the re

follows:

paint the consternation which seized
them, from the chief at Ashland, down
to the bottle-washer of the Reporter,
when the startling fact first burnt upon
their astonished senses, that five demo
crats mere elected lo Congress. It equal

But tlie Reporter is right; “Kentucky
was never cutout fora half and ha.lL j

THE POLITICAL CANVASS IN MAINE
Is of most active and spirited charac
ter, and calls forth all the talent of the
able editorial corps on either side.
No press conducts it with more ability,
spirit, and wit, than the fid it or of the
Portland American.—Willi such an ad
vocate as our friend Kingsbury, as we
see lie is called by the Democratic Edi
torial corps, our good cause must tri
umph. We fear not the result of the
rapidly coming conflict. The election
takes place in a few dnys. Success to
our friends. May victory perch upon
their standards.— Macon Go. Democrat.
j Who dared, without our knowledge,
to ex-scissorize the above and have it put
iin type? Where is the offender? Let
him show his ugly face. But as it is in
type, we cannot afford to have the labor
lost; and so our jetce of a compositor
may find a corner for it.
Victory has perched upon our stand
ard. as the Democrat is probably aware
by this time. But it must be confessed
that she was an uncommonly long time
about it. Neither did she' light down
quite so flat footed as we should have
preferred. The tact is, some unruly
gentlemen, who were in tlie political
field hunting for game on their own
hook, caught her and clipped her wings;
consequently she was a long time in
reaching our standard, and theri plumped
| down with a most lob-sided ungrateful
ness. But her pinions will have obtain-:
ed their growth and beauty again by the
time for the Presidential contest, and the
way she will then sweep over the course
will tie the admiration ofthe Inion. The
democracy of Maine are all right on the
great question. They will go for the
regular nominee of the National Con
vention, heart, soul and h;uid. The fall
majority will roll down upon tlie gorjron
head of Federalism like a mighty ava
lanche.—Portlutid American ,

DEATH OF COL. JOHN MILLEN.
The Savannah papers of last Monday, brought the
mclancholly intelligence of the death of Col. John
Millen, member elect to Congress, who expired on
the Sunday previous, in the 40th year of his age. In
the death of this amiable and excellent gentleman,
and sound and inrorrupliide politician, society has
lost a valuable and useful citizen, and the cause o;
Democracy an able and zealous advocate. We re
gret that the late hour at which we received the in
telligence of the demise of Col. M , precludes a more
extended notice of his social virtues and public ser
vices.
It is our painful office to annonnee to his numerou* friends,
that our As-nsuuit ami friend, Mr. THOMAS f>. RICE, the
Commercial Editor *©f the Georgian, is no more. Cos ifmed
for about a week to his house, with an attack of fever the
disease was believed to. have been conquered, but yesterday
afternoon it assumed an unfavorable change, and our friend
sunk under it between twelve and one o’clock last night. O.
his virtues, we cannot now speak with any prospect of ren
dering justice to one whom an acquain'anceof lime more than
two years, had endeared to us as a brother.
A Wivlow and eight Chtldren are loft to mourn this unex
pected stroke of a mysterious Providence.’who has promised
to be aFaiherto the widow and the fatherless. —SaramtaJi
Georgian
We were long and well acquainted with Mr. RitF., anti can
bear testimony to his numerous virtues and many amiable
qudiiiies lhand, interesting, and unassuming in his man
ners, his company was always attractive and agreeable, and
the social and domestic circles in which he moved were
brightened and made more cheerful by his presence. Asa
business man. he was assiduous, correct, and systematic, anil
in the flowery walks of literature, particularly in the |KH*tical
parterre, he evinced a taste and judgment which wou4d have
elevated him 10 an enviable di-umca m. bad U»rtune but smiled
upon him, and permitted him 10 pursue the bent ol his genius
and inclination.
Whilst ardently attached to the country of his adoption, Air.
Rice was, at the same time.nr husiaslicaby devoted to the land j
ofhri nativity, the “ Emerald Use —and many a beautiful,
patriotic and indignant effusion has his Muse poured forth in
(Hunting to her suffering au 1 her gallantry, and in denouncing
the despotic sway oi her tyrants and oppressors. But he has
now g >ue to his long, long rest, to enjoy,we hope, the glorious
reward of a well ’ilk -JCiv Air Pbt»cwi.
