Friday, June 27, 1845, TO ARSIS! TO ARMS ! t A WHIG CANDIDATE IN THE FIELD! It Jive us great pleasure to publiah the subjoined Lettrr. which we have just received from Mr. Hauoii- ToM.rf ChBtham. Unable, longer, io resiw ... .... RporfanilTe or his frieiids, he ha. come oat, like man. Bunder hi. own signature, and. in the true spirit of a Fieeman, annouuees himself as the Whig t- anaiaa.o for Congress in thm District. If any thing can rend the fotlera of iso Focoism that clank anwno the limbs of deluded Democracy in thin District, it win be the earnest," straight-forward, convincing argu roenu of a practical man like Mr. Haughton. All that we dewre is, that he should be met iu debate by his opponent, and the people, ever prompt to judge aright, will' decide between them with a just dis crimination. . The.issue i, therefore, now fairly made up, and we call upon every man in the District, who w dis satisfied with the present condition of National af fair, to rally to the support or the Whig Candidate, who, besides beinj orthodox in his political creed, it perfectly unexceptionable in every oilier respect. A long pull, then, aud a strong pull, and we shall "put the Dubbiti'Xa the Loco Koeo nominee : PttUboro', 25M June , 1845. Wbston R. Calks, Eaq. D:a S i: Ilia known to many of your readers, I presume, that at a meet-njr of a portion of the WhW n.nv of Cumberland Comity, held in Fay- etteville on the 4lh Wtimo, I was nominated aa k Can didate to representlhls District in the next Congress. That nomination tendered me through a Commit tee, appointed by the meeting, I promptly declined, and in my letter to the Committee, I expressed the with that measures might be taken by the Whigs of the District, to bring forward some other gen tleman. By adopting this course, I had hoped that my po litical friends would cease to think of me, and would turn their atteutiou to some one else. I have been looking most auxiously for the nppearance of a Whig Candidate in the fieid, iu opposition to the Democrat ic Calid date, but in this I have been disappointed. Since my Letter to ihe Cuinbrrlund Committee, I have been uomiuaied by my own County, aud have bten warmly urged by frieiids from all parts of the District, to reconsider the matter, mid to become a Candidate. Thus situated, I do not feel at liberty longer to resist Ihe wishes and earnest solicjialious of my friends, but bouud to make whatever sacrifice the occasion calls for ; sud, therefore, I have adopt ed this as the most convenienpapihodof auuonncing to the District, that I um a Candidate fr a scat in the next Congress pf'lhe United States. I shall en deavor to visit most of the Counties, and make as thorough arcauvass as the limited time left me will admit of. Below, you will find a list of my appointments for next week. I will forward you a list of the others in a few days. Very respsctfully, your ob't. acrv't, J. II. HAUOHTON. LIST OF APPOINTMENTS. Monday, 30th June , at Shepherd's, Moore County.

W nolicef that iu Washington a Funeral Proees- Lriou and Oration, as a mark of respect to the memo ry of Gen. Jackson, has been determined upon.

Notwithstanding the heat of the weather, which must have operated badly on the stringed instru ments, and contributed much to the discomfiture of u crowded auditory, there was no fault perceptible in the execution of the concerted pieces, and cer tainiv no complaint f.om the lips of the l.-un-s. which,, however iu.sl. would iu o;ir judgment be ungrateful, considering the coiiliuued br.-ere ir.ai pounu ..i...... the open windows, and the axid.ious aim gallant at- teution of our excellent fiiei. 1, W.

What pigmies in intellect, however gigantic in stature, were those old rebellious Titans, with their clumsy expedient of piling Pehon upon Ossa, and their hopeful project of taking the skies by escalade ! It is the Modern; with their diminutive bodies, and Titaniau intellect, piling up One discovery upon another, and bringing alJ matter under the domin ion of mind, who have climbed ifp, as it were, into the heavens, detected all the laws, motions, and distances of the celestial bodies, and brought the whole system of the Universe within the gtasp of our comprehension. Having found for our moral lever, what Archim edes wanted for his material one a basis we have performed what he threatened, by raising the world. Tlie majesty of mind has made tiie eaih too nar row for our full expansion.' We liaVe penetrated into all its secrets, analysed its companion, sifted, -ttihtt.l ,t.,,,,n.,nHeIl. rthausted. used it up and 1 courjuored it, aud have nothing left, hut like so many Alexanders, to sit down and blubber Tor a new one. Have we not rummaged and ransacked its utter most corners? Have we not mounted above the clouds in llalioous drawn down clecliic fire, from tiesven. without incurriiiir the punishment of Pro metheus sported beneath the waves in diving bells, and crawled into the very bowels of the earth to extract its riches? Ilv wielding the omnipotence of an impalpable vapour, we have acquired such a do minion over matter, that there is nothing too stu- nendous for Ihe all-subjugating grapple of our ma- chines, while we can impel ponderous vessels through the waves, even against wind and tide, wilh the velocity of a Race-horse. Froni coal aud oil,', we have extracted a subtle gas, which being conduct ed for miles through subterranean darkness, aud brought lo our very doors, is retailed by the Quart, and supplies a perpetual light. Py means of the Telegraph, we can converse' with persons at any given distance, in almost a single moment of lime. Really, one's mind may be allowed to strut a litlle in the pride of its achievements, and look down wilh some contempt on ils fleshy tegument, as upou a scurvy companion. whom it only condescends notice from certain ties of consanguinity ; and even to consider Ihe spacious earth itself as but a larger species of prison, or cagelJfjp.mj which we juall ub timately escape, and take our flight to enjoy, in a nobler sphere, a more exalted destiny. WHEN DOCTORS DIFFER, Ate. The Standard" characterizes our notice of Gen. Jacksos's death as cold blooded, while the " Rich mond Enquirer," both an older and better Demo cral, compliments us for the proper spirit which it displays 1 IT The " Washington Union" says that Mr. Sec retary BAXcaorr has been prevailed on lo deliver an Eulogium upon General Jacksos, before the Demo cratic Association of Washington. We hope it will be in better taste than was bis Official' Order, on the occasion of his death. POST OFFICE ROBBERT. The Post Office at Rome, Geo., has been sub ject to frequent depredations recently, and suspicion fell upon the Posl waster at that place, Ur. Pat terson. On the. night of the 1st iust., the office of Col. T. C. Hackiitt, which adjoins that of the Postmaster, was entered, and a small trunk, con taining 81060 and valuable papers, was taken out The same night, the office of the Clerk of the in ferior Court was broken open, and 85 taken from a desk, secured by an outside aud inside leek. The Postmaster was immediately suspected of both these Ihefts by tho-e privy to lhe robbery of the Post Office, and a watch was .et upon him. An amount of money, hel ween $17 and liUI, has been re covered. 1'ot Col. Hacxitt toit'.d not ioeatrfy it s his. The Postmaster is in Prison, but denies his miilt.

I was very much p eased at a Dull phiy in which the Prisoners enguged after working hours. The principal building served as a Battery, and some tweu ; (V.nve or thirty commenced the game commonly known as " Fives." The exerci e taken aud the uuiuseiiient idioriled, was calculaled, I thought, to give hvahhy action to the body, and recieatioii ni relief to the mind. I left the place more than ever prepossessed in favor of these Institutions, in prefer ence to that bloody code of laws which takes the life of a human beinc; for any offence, save that of murder. That night I again took Stage nnd passed on South wurd, durini which I went throu'li Macon, some -Ml ! miles from M llcd- eville, but it being night, I was un- i a,e to see :n:icl ; but from what I could discern there werei en ral blocks of very large, line buildings, aud the Hotel at which we slopped was indeed a splei.d d KslaUisliinent.

After a pleasant night's rest, I arose early iu Ihe morning and took a walk along the banks of the Ri ver. Above the spacious Uridgo which spans the Cbatahoocliee and joius the Slates of Ocorgia und Alabama, are the Fulls or Rapids, where the walers dash in rupid iwpetuoHly over the craggy rocks wh eh b"d Ihe river, and rise in majestic grandeur above the. to foaming surge Amid these rocki urn fc uniubrr nf j ar;,(. f-".-h -Traps, in which ure caught some of ihe ' i1;.,t Kock, Trout, ( hub and Shad, w hich lalter kimi, I was informed, was not to be found iu any wa ters f'otith of that iiivcr.
