But of all the look-ahead people, that we ever

buying articles that she did not want, merely be
cause she could get them cheap, bears off the palm.
On one occasion, she brought home an old cast-off

The argument was unanswerable, and the husband

THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS.
The "New York Ex press remarks that there
suit of the elections which baa been held in various
States during the present month, notwithstanding
the defeat of the Whig Candidates for Governor in
Maryland, Pennsylvania and Georgia, is, upon the
whole, gratifying and encouraging to the Whigs,
in all the substantial elements of power, in the States
where elections havt takeu place.
To sum up the results of the various contests, we
may first mention that Maryland gives us four Whig
members of Congress, out of six members elected, a
clear gain of two, and insuring a Whig majority in
the House of Representative, in the next Congress ;
besides increasing the Whig majority ia the Legis
lature, and rendering certain the election of a Whig
to the United States Senate, for six years from
March 4th, 1849.
Geerfia, instead of a Legislature divided against
itself, as the last was, with a Loco Foco Senate and
a Whig House, now elects a Whig majority in each
branch; thus insuring the election of two Whig
Senators to the Senate of the United States, for
the term of six years, respectively from March 4th,
13 47, and 1849.
In Pennsylvania the Wbigs retain their majority
in the Senate, and the House will probably contain
a sufficient number of Conservatives to act with the
Whigs on many important questions. ,
Ohio, which last year had a Senate at first tied,
and afterwards Loco Foco by absenteeism, or vacan
cy, is -now Whig by a majority in both branches of
the Legislature. This election is important, aa a
new apportionment for representation in the Legis
ture for the next ten years, is to be made by the Le
gislature now elected.
Florid, for the first time since her admission into
the Union, has elected a majority of Whigs to the
Legislature, and the large Whig majority elected to
the Senate renders probable the election of a Whig
United Statea Senator, by the Legislature next year.
Thus, in four of the five States in which elections
have been held this month, has the national admin
istration been condemned by the people, in the elec
ticn of Legislatures, a majority of whom are Whigs
and whose influence, besides the bearing they must
have in the Senate of the United States, cannot fail
to facilitate the future success of the Whig cause in
coming elections.
rry The "New World" must be held responsible
for the following : A few years since, when Rev. Dr.
Hawks, the celebrated Episcopal clergyman, was
about leaving New York for the South, he was
waited upon by the vestrymen of a small church in
Westchester county, and urgently solicited to take
charge of the same. The Rev. Dr. graciously re
ceived the Committee, but respectfully declined the
proposal, urging as a chief objection, that the salary,
though liberal for the parish which they represent
ed,, would be inadequate for his expense-, having a
considerable family of small children to educate and
provide for. One of the Committee replied, "The
Lord will take care of them ; he has promised to
hear the young ravens when they cry, and provide
for them.? " Very true," said the reverend gentle
man, " but he has not promised to provide for the
young Hawks."
D7 In the storming of Molino del Rey, Major
Somwer, with hia dragoons, charged a heavy column
of the enemy's lancers In doing so, they had to
pass under a heavy fire from tLe enemy's works.
The following incident connected with this charge,
is told by the correspondent of the Delta. It is not
uneommonin history for horses to show such dis
e'pfine: ".While the cavalry were passing in front ef the
enemy, in order to charge the column of lancers,
they were not under the tire more than ten seconds,
and, during that time, they .sustained a loss of six
officers, wounded, thirty-two privates killed' and
wounded, and a loss of one hundred and five horses.
There were but two officers that did not have their
horses shot under them ; bat there is one thing very
remarkable, that the horses from which the riders
had been shot, wheeled. and moved with the same
regularity as though they had been mounted, until
they came to nan irom ine cuarge, wocn au
kept on in a body in direction of the enemy."

is not so if Congress, in whom the war-making
power is expressly made to reside, is to have uo

is not to judge of the propriety of beginning or car

from the Constitution.'1
THE WHIG VICTORY IN GEORGIA.
The "Savanmih Republican," in announcing the
gratifying intelligence, that the Whigs of Georgia
have elected a majority of members in both branch
es of the Legislature, says :
"This is a victory worth having. It gives us two
United States Senators, a Judge of the Supreme
Court of Errors, for six years, three or four Judges
of Superior Courts, Solicitor Generals, State Offi
cers, &c. Sic, and, above all, it insures to the
State ef Georgia, a continuance of that Whig policy
uuder which she has prospered so abundantly."
OUR INDEMNITY.
The last National Intelligencer contains a commu
nication on the subject of our relations with Mexico
which we have little doubt was written by Mr. Wud
dy Thompson. Speaking of our prospect of getting
an indemnity for the expenses incurred in the pro
secution of the Mexican war, the writer says :
1st All efforts to procure funds from Mexicans to
pay the expeuscs of the war, to a considerable
amount, will end in failure. Goods may be sent
there alud the duties paid on them, but when the
drawback is deducted for goods sold our own army
very little will be left As to levying contributions
in auy other way it cannot be done, tor the simple
reasou that they have no money. They are poor,
indolent and unproductive people. There are not
twenty wealthy Mexicans in the whole Republic.
If the property of the-Church is seixed, that proper
ty consists mainly in houses iu the cities and estates
in the country, which, for twenty reason, will not
bring money -the first of which is that the money
is not in the country and the jewels and church
ornaments will be secreted.
2d. If an adequate force is sent to Mexico, the
drain of specie which will be thereby caused will se
riously affect our monetary sj stein. This may be
in some small degree prevented, or rather postponed,
by authorizing our commanders in Mexico to sena
bills on England. But these bills dust be paid in
specie or its equivalent, and the balance in England
against us will thus be increased. This difficulty
we should already experience but for the extraordi
nary flow of specie to our country for provisions.
The state of things no longer exists. The last sus
pension of the Bank of Euglaad, which continued
tor twenty-two years, was caused by the disburse
ment of specie in a foreign war. Whatever specie
we send to Mexico is lost to us; there is no return
ing tide to bring it back.
07" A striking instance of the advantageous use
of Let keen, in rendering the patient insensible to
the pains of a severe surgical operation, was ex
hibited at Morristown, New Jersey, lost week. It
is thus related in the "Newark Advertiser":
The operation was performed by Mr. G. F. J.
Col burn. It consisted iu cutting open the nail on
the second buger of the fight hand, for the purpose
of removing a splinter of wood which had been
forced under it. The nail had to be opened the
whole length, as the splinter was forced under it so
far as to be impossible to remove it in the ordinary
way by taking hold of the end and pulling it. out,
thus rendering it one of the most painful operations
in surgery.
The paiieat was a girl working for one of our cit
izens. After inhaling the Letheon for about two
minutes, she appeared to be iu a state of perfect re
signation, a snide settling upon her countenance.
Ttie operator then taking her finger, preparatory to
the operation, she raised her head and looked in
quisitively at him, aa much as to say, What do you
want with my finger? Upon ssking her if sbe was

Within the last two or three days, the reception
of farther Intelligence from the Seat of War) has
relieved the' public mind of tbt anxiety that tfas be
ginning to be felt for the fate of the Army' under
Gen. Scott. At length our, legions u revel in the
Halls of the Mentezumas," but at a terribly bloody
price , and we know not, nevertheless, that at this
moment, they, eren in tht midst of their sanguinary
victories, art not ih the most imminent peril a mere
handful as they 'are, in a City, with two hundred
thousand enemies within its walls. It seems almost
incredible that- Scott, with only six thousand men)
attempted to enter the City at all and when we
reflect oponr tbt masterly manner in which he ef
fected his entrance, we feel proud of the proweys of
our gallant countrymen. They have achieved deeds
that will lire m tue memories of future generations,
and the daring courage they have evinced, while
surrounded on all sides by the exasperated foe, has
never been excelled even in the most brilliant cam
paigns of European Generals. That gallant six
thousand, to accomplish what they have done, must
possess all the self-sacrificing devotion aud all the
contempt for personal privation that distinguished
the soldiers of Sweden, when led from their North
ern homes on to Southern conquest by Charles Xil.
The enthusiasm, the patriotism, and the noble daring
they have displayed, were not" surpassed by the sol
diers of Bonaparte and, with equal truth, it may
be said that the Iron Duke himself uerer command
ed a more unflinching, stern, unconquerable pha
lanx, than that which the victorious Scott has led on
to the Mexican Capital. Nay, the American Army
has surpassed all these, in the eyes of the Christiau
world, for they have conquered, but not destroyed
they have advanced to the enemy's capital, but not
to desecrate her temples, fire her domes not to put
women and children mercilessly to the sword to
plunder, neither to destroy. Though their ground
was disputed, inch by inch as it were, and, more
over, after having entered the City itself, and there
stoned from the house-tops with every provocation
for summary vengeance and retribution yet it is,
indeed, a glorious spectacle to behold, amid these
complicated horrors, our countrymen forbearing to
do what the rules of war would hare justified them
in doing ; aud instead of punishing the stubborn
Citj, we see them protecting the property of its
people, and maintaining the public peace in short,
pursuing a line of conduct that could have been ex
pected only from a liberating, not a conquering and
invading Army. We see war in the City of Mexi
co, in its mildest phase ; but oh ! Heaven, what a
horrifying, blood-chilling scene, without its gates.
Three thousand of our gallant country men,. our own
brethren, slain, and mutilated ! Alas! for the
widow aud the fatherless, as they peruse the bloody
lists of the fallen brave. Tears will flow as fast
around the bereaved domestic circle, as blood stream
ed on the gory fields of San Angel, Mill del Rey
and Chupultepec; and while the prayer of the heart
broken ascends to Heaven for the souls or kindred,
butchered far away in a hostile land, who among us,
with a clear conscience, can believe that the misera
ble, misguided, reckless authors of the War, will
presume to say, Amen. It would choke them did
they attempt it I
Sir Robert Walker was seen in Wall street, again,
yesterday. He ia a bird of evil omen, aud the bro

It is whispered that he wants to borrow another

Tammany Hall was turned into a Pandemonium
a few evenings since, again. A meeting had been

expected to be. The result was a regul r fight,

which left the rioters all in the dark. And then
there was such a rush for the stairs, that some ot

THE RESULT IN OHIO THE EFFECT.
It ia an indisnutable fact that the late political
battle in this State was fought on the War ques
tions. Every where, m every county, tnese ques
tions were made the chief topics of discussion, the
Locos sustaining the War, and the Whigs denoun
cing its origin aud objects. And the specific issues
made by the Locos against the v nigs were urawn
from the expressed opinions and the official votes of
Mr. Corwin in the Senate. Every where Mr. Cor
win was the special object of attack and vituperation.
Tom Corn-in, the traitor Tom Cortein, the Mexican
Whip Tom Corrcin. the even thing unpatriotic, vile,
and execrable, were the choice denunciations by which
the Locos indicated the issues net ween me parues,
and on which they asked an expression of the pop
ular judgment at the ballot boxes. The banking
svstem and the tax law were occasionally referred
. f i t a. ii

youth. One form hath given you life, one bosom
hath nourished you ; let one heart and one affection
be yours forever so shall you bo beautiful in life
so shall not death divide you ! And oh, wife ! what
shall 1 say to you you who can exercise so potent
an influence upon the manly form that bath promised
to be thiue forever, in sickness and in health, in
riches and in poverty, in glory and in shame ? Tis
thus, too, that your own oath has been registered.
Oh I be mindful of the solemn pledge Be not too
hasty to reprove or condemn. Remember the fierce
strife which his spirit must endure to win sustenance
for you and for your loved ones. Remember the
fretting of the mind, the weariness of the body,
which the primeval curse has entailed upon him,
and remember how that curse came. Be it thine to
calm life's troubled waves ; be it thine, by thy gen
tle words, thy cheering smile, to make a drooping
heart rejoice ; and as the dove, when it found no
spot to rest upon, came back with joy and speed to
the ark, where it knew it would have a kind wel
come and a generous protection ; when thy compan
ion has found in this troublous, stormy life, no spot
upon which his saddened heart, his weary i'ormj can
stay, and flies back to thee, the ark of his joy and
of his hope, drive not the bird with the broken wing
from thy bosom by coldues or by reproach, but be
in turn the protector and sustainer of him, that has
protected and sustained thee ; .and so shall he take
new comfort and new strength to buckle on bis ar
mor again for life's conflicts, secure in the reflection
that, though the whole earth forsake him, one heart
clings to him with undying affection ; one form watch
es over him with unceasing sympathy ; one life is
linked with his life ; one joy with his joy ; one sor
row with his sorrow ; and that if borne down in the
encounter, be shall sleep the sleep of death, one
memory shall cherish bis memory, one soul shall
watch his spirit's flight, and long for the time when,
in a brighter land aud a happier home, the hearts
that had been linked together in time, will be bound
together in eternity 1" . .
TENNESSEE. ,
In the interesting Inaugural Address of the
Hon. Neil S Brown, Governor of the State of
Tennessee, we find the following passage, not
less honorable to the State than the pride which
he takes in bringing it forward, is creditable to its
new Governor :
11 The public history of the State has been hither
to untarnished by a ."ingle act of delinquency in her
pecuniary engagements; and from this has risen
much of her reputation and that of her people, and
this is a just source of pride and exultation to every
Tennessean. A reputation for strict prompt justice
is worth more in the great moral scale of the civili
zed world than all the loud trumpet-notes of heroism
and the enchanting plaudits of renown. And, with
out arraigning the action of some other States, (for
it is no business of mine,) I fervently trust that re
pudiation will never find a lodgment among the peo
ple of Tennessee, or enter into their thoughts, or
eren their night dreams or visions. It is a doctrine
founded in bad morals, dictated by a false and un
wise policy, destructive and ruinous in its conse
quences, behind the presenrage, unworthy of the
American character, and beneath the dignity of the
anglo-Saxen race. It is one too which can find no
vindication in the philosophy or common sense of
the age, and at which Christianity revolts.
'-And as anxious as I feel for the happiness and
prosperity of the people of Tennessee, and their free
dom, aa far as is consistent with the public interest,
from burdens and exactions, yet I would sooner see
them doomed for a season to the toils and tributes of
the ancient Israelites, than to see them bearing and
transmitting the withering curse of repudiation. .
" Claiming as full an exemption from superstition
as most men, 1 firmly believe and take pleasure in
announcing it, that uo State can prosper in a long
career of true glory, iu the disregard of the claims
of justice and the injunctions of the Christian reli
gion. A flood-tide of apparent prosperity may come,
filling for the time the avenues of trade, and satiating
the cravings of taste aud curiosity, yet sooner or later
it has Its ebb, aud either cloys with its abundance or
leaves the void greater' than before. History is a
silent but eloquent witness of this truth, and from
her undying lamp sheds a stream of unceasing light
along our pathway. The fabrics of ancient great
ness, built by injustice and consecrated to ambition,
are now flitting shadows before us, starting up from
behind the broken pillars aud falling columns that
were reared to perpetuate the genius by which they
were wrought."
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS AND
IMITATIONS.
The unparalleled and astonishing efficacy of Dr.
Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, in all the diseases
for which it is recommended, curing many cases after
the skill of the best physcians was unavailing, has
effected a large and increasing demand for it. This
fact has caused several unprincipled counterfeiters
and imitators to palm off spurious mixtures, of simi
lar name and appearance, for the genuine Balsam.
Some are called u Syrup of Wild Cherry," u Bal
aam of Spikenard," "Wild Cherry Comfrey," ice.
Another, u WisteiJs Balsam of Wild Cherry," mis
spelling the name, and forging certificates to resem
ble those of the true Balsam. u Dr Wistar's Bal
sam of Wild Cherry" is the only genuine. The rest
merely imitate the name of the original, while they
possess none of its virtues. -LOOK
WELL TO THE MARKS OF THE
GENUINE.
The genuine Balsam is' put in bottles, with the
words "Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry,
Philadelphia," blown in the glass; each bottle bear
