Ojvx.y, (Near. Onancock.) Accomack co., Va. ) August 22, 1S52. ) To the Editor of the. Union: Sir: A gentleman from Maryland, who was present at a meeting at the court house of this county in July last, published h report of a dialogue which took place in discussion between .Mr Mapp, the whig sub-elector, and myself, as the nominated democratic elector for this district. From several quarters I have been asked whether the report was correct, and 1 have replied that it was' substantially correct My reply was made according to what I un derstood to be the meaning of the inquiry: Was it true that a whig in public discus sion bore testimony to the fact that he him self had lu-atil General Pierce declare in New Hampshire, in public discussion among a non-slaveholding people, that if an army was raised in the North to march upon the South for the purpose of putting down slavery by force, it would have to march over his dead body, for he would head another to oppose it ? I answered to that point of inquiry alone, when I replied that Mr Map) so declared in Accomack, and he has since so declared at a meeting in Northampton!, at Eastville, the second Monday of this mouth, in a discussion which then took place between Mr Butts and myself. The report in the particulars respecting Mr Hale was not so correct My question to Mr Mapp was : " Were you not in New Hampshire some few years ago," (not two years,) and did you not liejr some abolition partisan of Hale perhaps, declare in public discussion that he regarded slavery ad so grievous a sin that an army ought to be maicJied upon the South to suppress it by lorce if it could not be suppressed in any other way r" Mr Mapp replied that he was there, and had heard such declaration i n public dis cussion. Hut I do not think he named the person from whom he heard it. 1 then asked him the question : ' Was not General Pierce present at the time, and did you not hear him reply that if an army was raised to march upon the South to put down slavery by force, it would have to march over dead body, tor he would head another army to oppose it ?" Mr Mapp replied, lie had heard General Pierce so reply ; adding that he (General I.) had no sympathy for slavery, but he was bound to regard the constitutional compact, and to maintain the execution of the laws. Mr Mapp had been using the New Bos ton falsehood to prove General P.'t loath ing of slavery. I was repelling the attack when Mr Mapp said his opportunities of knowing General IVs sentiments were more recent than my own. I had-not heatd him since I served with him in Con gress, but he hail heard him speak on the suhji tt of slavery within some few years back. He did not at first say what senti ments he had heard him utter, when a gen tleman requested me to put to him the ques tions which 1 have mentioned Mr Mapp's answer was unequivocally in the afiirma tive, fiat he had heard Gen. Pierce pub licly declare what I have stated, that an army raised to march upon the South to put down slavery by force would have to inarch over his fGen. IVs) dead body, for he would head another to oppose it.'' Mr Mapp did not say this was said in reply to Mr Hale, nor to whom it was said in reply ; but I exclaimed, as soon as he had borne this ample testimony Such is the language General P. holds to the John P. Hales and other abolition minions in New Hampshire, on the very soil of a free State; and yet here is a whig sub-elector who can bear such testimony of General P 's truth to our in stitutions, assails him in Virginia, without him self first disclosing the fads he knows to the contrary, upon the testimony of such a witness as this man Foss." Thus, I suppose, the error got into the report that the remark of General P. was "made in reply to Mr Hale. No matter to whom it was made in reply, it is enough it was made, and is vouched by a whig op pnnent. who is himself vouched as worthy of credit by the entire whig party of this State. Mr Mapp is not only a whig sub elector, but is a whig member of the Vir ginia House of Delegates from Accomack J believe he heard General P. make the declaration which he states, not only be cause I know Mr Mapp to be respectable and reliable for a fact like this, which he stated reluctantly against his party, but because I know such a fact to be in exact consonance with the character of General P., and with his course in the Congress of the United States. It is, therefore, a non-sequitur for Hale to say in his card of contradiction, which 1 have just seen, that because he (Hale, made no such remark as was erroneously, perhaps, attributed to him in the report of the statement of Mr Mapp, he (General Pierce) never made any such "reply" M Mapp dil not say it was made in reply to him and if it never was made in reply to him, that does not prove it never vra3 made in reply to tome one else. Of that Mr Mapp inuft speak. Mj pur- was correct as to everything relating to General Pierce In haste vours respectfully, HENRY A. WISE. From the Fayetteville Observer.

A vast portion of the business of the session will lie over till the next session, which will be more favorable to legislation, inasmuch as the Presidential election wilt be over. RE- CONNECTICUT WHIG CONVENTION PUDIATING THE PLATFORM. The following paragraph from the New Haven Register shows that the "higher law" men are carrying matters with a high hand among the whigs of Connecticut. As has been well said, in view of the posi tion of the Scott men and the 'Webster men, the whig party is now divided into two hostile sections one of which repudi ates the party candidates and nccepts the party platform, while the other repudiates the platform and supports the candidates: The signs of thr times. The whig State cc.iivvttitiou for the nomination of presidential electors have careful ly omitted to pass any resolutions approving of the Baltimore platform, or of the compromise measures, adopted by their general con vention, at which Scott and Graham were nominated. They do not even say a word of approval of Mr Fillmore's administra tion, nor pay a passing compliment to the first statesman of the age,' as they used to call him. Diniel Webster. At the whig ratification meeting held here doringlhe'l session of the legislature, they also refus to adopt the platform but, as a sov&oif half salvo, they passed resolutions approv ing of the' Fill more administration, w hich, the Union whigs were told, covered the platform, because Mr Fillmore was a plat form' man ; and in this way they hoped to pacify both wings of whiggery abolition and compromise. But now they throw oil all disguise, ami show themselves to be t hat is, the leaders and the great body of the party anti-comprotnine, anti-platform. Seward whigs of the higher-law breed. We were piepared to see them kick over the platform, ever since their file-leader Greeley 'spit upon it;' for we have known the managers all along to be of the Seward and Greeley stripe, who could not hide the cloven foot much longer; but we did not expect to see them so openly turn the cold shoulder to Fillmore and Webster."

The resolution was not resisted by the cheers for the Governor, Gen. Saunders. I Whig members, and Mr Corwin's friends on behalf of the assemblage, addressed the do not shrink from the investigation. Mr Governor and tendered to him their con gratulations on the result of the recent election, and their best wishes for his personal happiness. The address was in excellent taste, and was delivered by Gen. S. with evident emotion. Governor Reid replied at some length. He said he was deeply grateful for this mark of respect on the part of the Democrats of Wake County. He had endeavored, as the Executive of the State, to perform his duties in a just and acceptable manner ; and it could not be otherwise than grati fying to him to receive, as he had done, the approbation of the people of the State at the polls. He trusted he knew n other motive, in the discharge of hi Ties, man me 0011 01 nis constituents ami the permanent welfare of the whole State. The late triumph was, indeed, a glorious one ; but it was not his triumph it was the triumph of sourd and correct princi ples, of which he happened to be only the organ and expounder. He owed his suc cess to his friends, in all portions of the State, who had sustained him in a manner which commanded his most hearty thanks, and which would never be forgotten by him. All that he could claim for himself was, that he had endeavored to lay before the people, in a clear and candid way the principles which beheld. These prin ciples were not the growth of a day or of a year; they dated back from the com mencement of his public life, and timeout confirmed, in his judgment, their sound ness and adaptation to the wants of the country. He said the recent vote of the people of the State was enough, of itself, to satisfy an ordinary ambition ; he was content he was proud of the signal ap probation of his course which he had re ceived at the people's hands ; and though he did not expect to be a;ain a candidate for any office, he trusted he would never forget the people, who had honored him far beyond his merits, nor popular right, to the assertion and vindication or which so much of his public life had been devot ed He alluded also to the importance of the existing struggle for the Presidency, and urged the Democrats present to perse vere in the noble, national cause of Pierce and King. Gov. lleid concluded by again return ing his thanks to the assemblage, and by inviting them in to the Executive mansion. I hey entered, ot course, and were most cordially receiven by the Governor. Re freshments were set before them, lo whicfk they did ample justice ; after which they marched back to the Court-House, where they adjourned with nine hearty cheers. Cheers, loud and long, were also given opposite the residence of Mrs Henry, for thu Democratic ladies of -Raleigh; and nine cheers at the Government House to the Governor. ROMANTIC LEGENDS. -The wat IT works. The Scott press in the South continue to repeat the charge that Gen- Pierce delivered the sentiments contained in the New Boston speech, though the falsehood has been fully proved. How is it with the same press in the North? The Albany Evening Journal, Seward's well known Metropolitan organ in New i ork, sa vs: The fN. Y.) Observer is right in pro nouncing tne story untrue. It has been contradicted bv Gen. Pieice's personal ami political friends who were present on the occasion, and the denial published in the Washington papers over the signatures of the Locofoco senators and Congressmen from New Hampshire. There can be no doubt the sentiments of opposition to the law attributed to him were not founded upon what he really said.'' Thus the unholy coalition works. In in the North, where it might benefit Gen. Pierce with the abolition vote, the Scott press denounce the New Boston speech as false. In the South they continue to en dorse the silly falsehood. Bolder imposi tions upon the people were never attempt ed than those now attempted by the sup porters of Gen. Scott, both in the North and the South. In the last number of Fowler and Wells's Water-Cure Journal among many other valuable articles we find the follow- A Significant Fact. The National In telligencer the senior central orian of the whig party entirely refuses to take any part whatever in the whig and aboli tionist conspiracy to fix the charge upon General Pierce of using language satis factory to the abolitionists. The omission of the Intelligencer to make any mention of this matter is very significant. We trust the Republic feels the rebuke. Another National Cosvenhon. The friends of Mr Webster, in Boston, have adopted a resolution recommending that a National Convention be called, at some place to be hereafter designated, for the purpose of nominating Hon. Daniel Webster, of Massachusetts, as a candidate for President of the United States, and be agreed candidate Evrtiiquake. The shock of an earth quake was felt at Hamburg, Aiken, and other places on Wednesday morning last. The shock lasted from 30 to 40 seconds, and was preceded by the usual noise. Cheraw Gazette. rumbling French Cure for Hyduophobia The Paris Board of Health, in view of the pre valence of hydrophobia, among the dogs of that city, has published the following: 1. Kvery person bit by an animal who is mad, or suspected of being mad, should im mediately press the wound on all sides, to force out the blood anil the virus. C The wound should then be immediate ly washed with volatile alkali, with soap suds, with lime water, with salt water, or pure water, or if none of these are at hand, with urine. 3. An iron, at white heat, should next be pressed deeply into the wound. These directions, if rigidly followed, will be found sufficient to insure against the possibility of the appearance of this fright ful contagious disease. It is therefore evident that the author ities of Paris have not much confidence in the steam bath. Any person bitten by a dog. should wash the wound asquicklv as possible, squeeze it, and a common fork heated to a white heat, will answer well to burn the wound. such other gentleman as upon by the Convention for Vice President. may for a Invasion of Cuba.

From 1848 to 1851, both in clusive, embiacinga period of only four years, 563 lives were lost and 2,078,046 worth of property destroyed by steamboat accidents on the rivers and lakes of the United States. The present year, but little more than half gone, adds a frightful increase to the number of victims. By the disasters to the Atlantic, Henry Clay, and St. James alone, at least 400 more persons have perished, so that within less than five years nearly 1000 human beings have met sudden and awful deaths, by fire or water, in consequence of steamboat accidents on our rivers and lakes Balti more Sun Mr Edward Clark, of Pittsburg, publish es a statement describing a new nose made for him by Dr. Pancoast, of that citv, to supply the one he had lost some 16 years ago. A piece of flesh from the forehead was sewed into the cheeks; a gutta percha mould of his farther's nose was placed over it to give it the proper shape, and gold tubes were inserted for the nostrils. He has now a new nose, sound and well form ed, with the sense of feeling "and smell fine as they ever were. 'I wonder what makes my eyes so weak?' said a (op to a gentleman. Why, they are in a weak place,' replied the latter., v ing on the CAUSES OF THE PREMATURE DEATH OF METHODIST MINISTERS. In the Water-Cure Journal for June there is an article, headed Methodist Ministers Short-lived." Since my arrival in this country, three years since, I have frequently, in my own mind, been led to ilrasv a comnnrison between the health of Methodist ministers here and in England Having been a local minister for several II I I I . -.. r years, i nave nau noou opportunities lor observation, and I have at length come to tne conclusion, mat many ministers in this country do not live out half their davs.'' I have only met with one or two ministers in America who appear to enjoy good health. They appear, almost; to a man, to be affected with bronchitis, billious disarrangements, or incipient consump tion, lo myself, this is no difficult pro hi em to solve. 1 he causes 1 conceive to be the following : 1st. Ijiving on too highlv concentrated y food, dishes fried in fat, fine flour, &c. &c Methodist ministers live probably half their time at the houses ot their members am Jriends.who always prepare for the occasion ('what the good people ignorantly suppose) 41 he best diet;'' and the ministers, in such cases, must either eat highly indigestible food or none ; ami ministers generally would rather partake ot such food than give a hint lo their friends that they would prefer something plainer. Besides, the majority of families are so fixed in their dietetic habits, that, for a minister es pecially to give any hint upon the subject would, in many cases, be taken as an in suit. Such is the force of habit and igno ranee with which ministers in most places have to contend. 2nd. Indiscretion. Under this heat! I class long and loud preaching in many cases, ''screaming. Mr Weslpy (whom no person ever thinks was deficient in zeal) remarks. "I never scream ; I dare not ; it would be a sin against God and my own soul." And why? Because he knew it would injure his health, and con sequently shorten life. When I hear a minister screaming duiing the whole of a long sermon, I put him down as a person whose education for a minister is rather deficient ; who has, in fact, more heat than light ; whereas every true minister ought to possess both "light and heat." Preaching in crowded school houses, which have no means of ventilation, and the at mosphere being rendered more impure still by stoves heated nearly red hot protract ed meetings, continued until midnight studying by night, instead of day neglect of early rising, &c. 3rd. Neglect of Physical Out-door Exercise. Few ministers think they can reach a congregation, even at the distance of only a mile, at any season of the year, without a' horse and buggy. A carriage has its uses, no doubt; but to see a minis ter require a carriage to reach every ap pointment, appears to me 'rather effem inate." Walking or riding on horse back, in a majority of cases, would be far better. The latter, Mr Wesley (who spoke from personal experience) says is one of the most healthful exercises in the world; and, in many cases, if continued forseVeral weeks together, will cure a true pulmonary consumption." I could add much more, but prefer "multuin in parvo." Yours, &c, THOS. L. NORTH. Middleton, Dane Co., Wisconsin. real was A correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger writes from Doubling Gap," a romantic spot situated within a day's ride of Philadelphia: This place, for miles around, is invested with many historical facts and legends con nected with the early settlement of the country, to interest the visitor. It was in this valley and on these mountains Big Beaver, a chief of the Shawnees, with his tribe, in 1752, and for years before, had their hunting-ground, having been driven in 1677 from Carolina and Georgia. This was the grave of many of bis children and the scene of many a massacre. It was in this valley where the far-famed and many named Captain Jack the Black Rifle the Wild Hunter, &c, &c. entered the woods with a few enterprising companions, built his cabin, cleared a little land, (all within sight of the spring,) and amused himself with the pleasures of fishing and hunting. He was happy, having not a care. But on returning one evening from a day of sport, he found his cabin burnt, and his wife and children murdered. From that moment he forsook civilized man. lived in caves protected the inhabitants from the ndians, and seized eVery opportunity for revengo mat ottered. lie was ?T terror to the Indians, a protector to the whites. On one occasion awhile family, in the middle of a dark night, was suddenly awakened by the report of a gun.

He never shot without good cause. His look was a3 unerring as his aim. The name of this mysterious personage never ascertained. The vicinity of Doubling Gap, within he last half centurv, was the theatre of many extraordinary teats ot one Iewis. the Mountain Robber, or Robber of the West, the Pennsylvania Gil Bias. One of his caves is within sight of the spring, about half a mile up the east range It was ins retre.it when hard pressed by the myrmidons of the law. He was loved and feared bv the inhabitants hereabouts, who were very sparsely distributed over the country, living miles apart. He was the leader of a band of desperate men one of whom was named Donnelly. who was a wicked, blood-thirsty fellow. and frequently, in their marauding parties. was prevented from committing murder by tlie exercise of that influence which Lewis had acquired over his uneducated mind at times by costly presents, at others bv presenting a pistol to his head, saying, If you strike, l will Dlow out your brains." .Many a traveller s life has thus been saved. Lewis's band extended entirely over the mountains of the State, and were bv him distributed in the vicinity of parts most frequented by travellers. All had their caves, and frequently einerjjed from their hilling places, as hunters, mixing among the inhabitants. Lewis never joined them, except on business. He was a man of good education, but a misanthrope. .Jle visited, in the dress of a gentleman, the cities of Philadelphia and Pittsburg, mix ing among the elite, attending their assem blies, and learning their movements. Oa one occasion, on the mountain, as with rifle in hand, and pistols and knife by his side, with Donnelly, who was mostly with him, he ordered a traveller on horseback, from Pittsburg on his way to Philadelphia, to stand and deliver. He was obeyed. Lewis started as he looked at him, and said, Here, my friend, take back your money, and here is a pass ; if you are in terrupted on the mountains, exhibit that and you will pass on without molestation iti - t . t ii lie nau recogruzeu tne traveller as one who had done him service when in trouble in Pittsburg. Donnelly complained of this prodigality, this waste of money, as he termed it. Lewis silenced him by point ing his unerring pistol at his head, saying. One more word from you, and vou are a dead man. He was a friend of ours." This extraordinary man, Lewis, would occasionally go down from his mountain home, with gun in hand, dressed as a hun ter, and visit among the people, to whom he was always liberal and kind, often relieving their necessities and contributing largely to their comforts; indeed some of them were mainly supported by him. He required excitement to sustain nature; it seemed necessary for his very existence. His manners were coui teous, indeed pol ished ; his education seemed to have been a finished one. His countenance was sad and melancholy ; there seemed to be some corroding care mating away his heart. His early history, as reliteJ by himself, to an elderly woman, the widowed mother of one of his pensioners in the valley, wh used to expostulate with him upon the impropriety of his lawless life and beg him to return to society, was full ot interest, bordering on romance. He was a French man, of middle stature anil age, and wore the scars of many a battle, which he has shown and described often to his old friend to whom he confided his history. He had been an officer in the Freiih army, was the only son of parents who were comfortably situated in life. On his re turn from his last campaign, his wife, who was handsome, and, as he said, with many a bitter sigh and deep tear loved him or seemed to be much attached to him, had been led from her home and duty. He sought out the author of his ruin, planted a poinard in his heart, fled his country arid sought the wilds of America, where he originally intended to live in disguise the life of a hermit, and die alone in his cave on the mountains, but driven by necessity, for he was anxious to hear from his parents, hoping to learn something of her whom he would but could not forget, oft with heaving bosom and tearful eye, he wouid exclaim, "May God forgive her for all I have suffered," it became necessary that he should visit the city. He was destitute of means, and in a mo ment of desperation betook himself to the highway ana was .successful in Ms first attempt; According to his own account the struggle was great, but all things were made subservient to the one passion, a desire to hear from home, which he, never did. On his last visit to his old friend, she, ivith trembling hand, gavehim a - handbill offering a reward for his arrest. He read it. and exclaimed My companions have often remarked, that they wondered I had not long since been shot; they compliment- . ed my courage when standing unarmed, by chance, before the traveller, and ''de-. inanding his money. They little know , how my heart had been crushed, and that the winged bullet from the weapon of the V wayfarer could have taken nothing that" was worth possessing." He read the handbill again' and again, then looked ! earnestly in the face of the old woman and said, Itistime that 1 should die, but I would not die the death of a felon.'' He took the hand of his old friend, grasp ed it firmly, and passed off into the moun tain. Some days after, having missed his visits, they sought and found him dead by the spring near the mouth of his cave. He was buried in the valley in a rude coffin, and for many years, an unchiselled stone marked the spot where rested the remains of the bold and daring o'uttaw, Lewis the Robber.
