' Ap a work of art its excellence and beauty must strike
every one who sees it ; and it is no less happy in its like
uetsto the Kathor of his country. It was my good for
tune to have seen him in the days of my boyhood, and
his Trhole appearance is yet strongly impressed on uiy
memory. The portrait you have issued appears to me to
be an exact likvaess representing perfectly the expression
as well as the-form and features of the face !' And says
iKX.VTOR CASS, it is a life-like representation of the
great original PRESIDENT KILL MORE gays, "the
work appears to mo to hare ben admirably executed and
eminently worthy of the patronage of the public." Says
MARCH ANT the eminent portrait painter, and the pupil
of Stuart, -your print to my mind is more remrkl.l
i than any other I hareeeen, for presenting the whole in
dividuality of the original portrait, together with the noble
and dignified repose of air and manner, which ail whoever
saw him considered a marked characteristic of the illus
trious man it commemorates."

News of his Election. letter Irotn
Concord, N. H-, to the Union, says the
democrats of that place became wild with
delight on Tuesday night on receiving the
news of the election of Gen Pierce, and
that the president elect was appaiently
the only self-possessed, ' calm ami quiet
man in t lie place on that night. He re
ceived the victorious bulletins announcing
his success with scarcely a change of
countenance, and soon after quietly retir
ed to bed. The letter adds :
His habits are plain and unostentatious.
His practice yields him a large income;
and he is generous to a luult. It is said
in Concord by those who know him well
that he will spend his presidential sal
ary every year. The health ol Mrs Pierce
is too feeble for housekeeping, and so.
with their only child, a smart boy of a
dozen summers, they board in the private
family of V. Williams, a respecta-ble citi

Resolved, That as friends of Daniel

his life and public labors to establish., we
hereby constitute ourselves an American

Resolved. That the fundamental princi

office of men of known political integrity,
capacity and sound principles.
Resolved. That it is uur duty as a
Union Party to sustain any National Ad -ministration,
of whatever name, which

Insuiiordinatiox. Since the abolition
of Hogging in the merchant marine, with
out the substitution of any other elfieient
punishment, there has been a growing
spirit of insubordination, which, if not
speedily checked, will ltiilict a fatal blow
upon our commercial prosperity. In our
police report will be found an account of a
revolt on board the packet ship New
York, just cleared for Liverpool, which
has resulted in the arrest ol six of the of
fenders, and the consequent detention of

and-i- put up" foriC igftt fttone of "the
hotels. Upon awaking in the morning
and attempting to dress, ie was much
struck with a pair of boots at his door.
lie knew that he wore boots to town,
but not such as now met his astonished
vision. His were of good calfskin, ami
of fashionable make, and so were these;
but there the likeness ended. His wore
a decent exterior, but these shown like a
mirror, in which he couhl not only view
his own physiognomy, but all the fiirtiituni
in the room was reflected. Altera mo
ment's solemn contemplation, he thus
soliloquised, (being iu doubt about anoth
er fact as well as the proprietorship if the
boots) ' ho am 11 It I am Janu Jami
son, I've lost a pair of good boots; but if I
am not Jarwi Jamison, I've found a most
splendid pair." Not knowing exactly
whether he was Jami Jamison or not, lie
concluded to put on the boota and stir
about a little, and see if he could not re
solve the doubt. This he did, and after
walking about a while and getting the cob
webs out of his throat, and the lo-i out of
. c
his garret, he came finally to the conclu
sion that he was Jami Jamison, and thit
the boots were not his. Upon arriving at
this conclusion, he returned to the hotel
and informed the landlord that his own
boots had been taken from his. room the.
night before, and the pair he then had on
put in their place. Upon this complaint
tiie landlord called upon the boot black to
account for the mistake. This important
functionary averred that there was no mis
take that there was no other lodgers in
the house that night but massa Jamison
and the regular boarders." the latter of
whom all had their own boots. Upon
this announcement J ami's doubts again
arose as to who he was, and he concluded

After getting his breakfast he left 0ie'rhsi7
to attend to the business which briHiglif
him to town. Rut perplexed as he waj lie
made slow progress, anil at the dinner
hour he saw very clearly that he must dis
pose of the boot question, or remain U
town another day. So he weighed the
doubts pro. and con in a lump, and found
to his entire satisfaction that it would bis
much the shortest way to solve them in
favor of the probability that he was Jami
Jamison. This dune, he hurried to the
hotel and again complained to the land
lord of the loss of his boots, who very qui
etly asked him if he had examined for an v
marks that might be upon them. Marks!
did you say?" says Jami, 'marks indeed?
what's the use?, when I .know as well as I
know that the suu shines from Heaven
that they are not my boots, and that I am
determined not to wear them home." '-Do
they not resemble yours?" again asked the
landlord. "Resemble mine," screamed
Jami, at the same ' time lapping the toe
over towartls the instep several inches,
what if they do? I don't intend to wear
them home.'' Upon this the landlord very
coolly inquired of Jiiuii the cost of his boots
and was answered that they cost $3, upon
which he handed Jami a V, who lost no
time in getting to a store, where he pur
chased a pair ot shoes, left the boots and
made the best of his way oil.
Upon subsequent inquiry flic w hol.j
di'diculty was solved, when it was found
the boots had bce) dressed with Wood
ward's inimitable Root aud shoe polish.
Jami has not boen back since, and it is
supposed when he does come he w ill be
hard to convince that it was all owing to
the superior quality of the blacking that
caused him to deny his boots, so they arc
likely to remain unclaimed, a monument
uf caution to landlords,

has returned the V arid sent for the boots,
thinking they will enable hint to feret out
