SUDLtEN DEATH.

On Sunday morning last, Mr. William Rovsteb,
I this City, cam to his death in the following eud-
cn manner: He had just concluded his family de-
otion, and his attention being called, he stepped to
the door, and as is supposed, he was struck with an
poplectic fit, which precipitated him out, and on
ailing, his head striking first, his neck was broken,
nd he was thus hurried into eternity.- He was

mged also to the. order of the " Sons of Tempe

' . . SCRAMBLE FOR OFFICE.
Do we not hear it openly and shamefully avowed
by some, that Politics is nothing but a scramble for
Power ; that men have only to attach themselves
to the popular or successful party, t ensure to them
selves the emoluments of office! Hence the preva
lence of such nefarious doctrines as ' to the victors
belong the spoils," and hence the appointment (o
places of trust persons who are qualified in no earth
ly way, 'morally nor mentally, except by the ser
vice lie has done his party, and his " accomplish
ments" as a " Politician." The annunciation and
support of such a doctrine, comes only from such
men as are conscious of their ow n degradation, sen
sible that they have become already the outlaws of
honor, and who have now no other security left but
to degrade the sanctity of virtue ; for is it not an
open bribe, to seduce (torn the free, untrammelled
opinion of justice and right ? The man is invited
to connect himself with the dominant party, with
out examining its principles or approving its acts ;
but merely for the reason, that he may be person
ally benefitted. Shame! shame! When our men
in high authority, inculcate by precept and exam
ple such debasing and depraved maxims, they as
sume ttie form of a set of banditti much more to
be dreaded than the midnight Robber ; for baseness
and prostitution has then fled from the bar of Jus
tice, end assumed the robes of the Mugistrate
There is nothing which has more fatally contributed
to the degradation of our Country, than the opinion
that Politics is a mere scramble for power and of
fice, between the two great contending parties of
the Union.
EDITOR'S CORRESPONDENCE.
nrrMAGOGisM.
The curse of our country is the demagogues who
infest it. The attempt to array one class of the
community against another the rich against the
poor is a favorite theme with this detestable class.

Iiouisiarta was discovered by Ferdinand de Sole, in
1530, and a Is by the French from Canada, in 1674.
This now greaYand growing City, (New Orleans,)
was founded in 171, though the first settlement in
the State was made atBoloxi, in 1G99. It was con
veyed to the Spanish in'iTtiS, who in 1800 reconvey-
ed it to (he. French. In ft was purchssed by
the 'United States, and taken possession of by our Go
vernment, on iheL'Olh of December of the same year,
and became a State in August, 1 81. This State is
intersected by many great Rivers, emptying into the
"father of waters," (the Mississippi,) or immediately
into the Gulf of Mexico. In 1810,.the populatinnj of
the whole State, or Territory as it then was, but very
little exceeded TG,UO0 how, it is largely upwards of
300,000, and that of New Orleans alone, is consider
ably above 100,000!
The situation of New Orleans for Commerce, as is
well known, possesses peculisr advantages. The
Mississippi River, opposite toe City, is half a mile
wide, and from 100 to 150 feet deep. The level of
the City is from 3 to 9 feet below the level of the Ri
ver, at the highest water. To protect it from inun
dation, a strong and inngtiilicciit Levre. or embank
ment is raised on its Iwrder, from 4 to 10 feet high,
and varying from ?0 to -10 feet broad, affording one
of the most beautiful promenades in the woflrl. That
part of the Levee iu front of the Second Municipality,
by. the annual deposits made by the River and the till
ing up by the Corporation, is extcuiicj " ToTh e or six
hundred feel broad. It extends from 43 miles below
the City to )i!0 above it. Manv of the rainilv Kesi-
dences in the suburbs of the City, are surrounded by
spacious gardens.splendidly ornamented, with Orange,
Lemon, Magnolia aud other trees. Take it all iu all.

policy as only benefiting Towns and Cities they
tell us of the sweat-drops poured out by the labor of
the poor, that luxury may riot, and pampered wealth
enjoy it. They discourse most eloquently about the
poor People" the "oppressed People" while they
would have you believe that they would shed the
last drop of their heart's blood for the " dear peo
ple." It is the language of every popularity hunter
of every age, and of all designing demagogues in this
and every country. ' J.e 1'auvre People," was the
cry of Danton, Robespif,rrf, and Marat when rev
elling in the blood of the honorable, the brave and
the virtuous of France. Their dark deeds of blood
shed and crime was consummated amid the approv
ing shouts of the " poor People" the " dear Peo
ple" until France, under the influence of their ne
farious doctrines, was but a blood-stained shamble
one vast charnel-house. Corruption stalked through
the land, aud all of virtue and patriotism that escaped
that scene of slaughter, fied from her soil, or wept, in
obscurity and concealment, the disgrace of their coun
try. Let its sqd effects in Franco serve as a beacon
to warn us of the frightful tendency such doeirines
inculcate. We are one -people our hopes, our in
terests are one ; and whatever system of public Doli-
cy may be adopted, its beneficial or injurious effects
are alike felt, by the poor man in his cottage, and
the rich man in his mansion. Away, then, with
this spirit of anarchy and discord, and let one and
all adopt for their motto our Country our whole
Country.
ces to live at, iu (lie United Stolen, in proof of which
I shall, at some future time, adduce some of the ve
ry best reasons.
INCONSISTENCY.
" But, good my brother,
Do not as some ungracious pastors do
Show me the steep and thorny way to heaven,
Whilst, like a pufT'd and reckless libertine,
Himself the, primrose path of dalliance treads,
And wrecks not his own read."
Mankind are so accustomed to say one thing and
do another, that they seem insensible to the incon
sistency. T!all upon a man to make a public ad
dress, on the Fourth of July, on the 22d of Februa
ry, or before some Literary Society, and judging from
his sentiments, you would suppose him lo lie the
most exact saint that could bo found. But the same
man who urges temperance, chastity, and virtue so
eloquently on such occasions, is, not unfrequently, a
victim of the vices against which he warns others.
Nor does the inconsistency stop here. While he
" wrecks not his own read," he is very quick to
notice any inconsistency in others. He is forever
commenting on the faults of Christians, and urging I
mem as a reason (or his own spiritual neglect.
,Again : Every body in this countf claims liberty
of conscience, and the right of private judgment ;
and yet in this same country, people are punished
for exercising these rights. Some are removed from
office ; others are denied social privileges, and others
still arek ridiculed and abused, not for any want of ca
pacity, refinement or piety, but because of their con
scientious opinions. The same people who condemn
in strong terms the cruelties of the Inquisition, act
every day upon principles which, if carried out, would
lead to similar results. Whenever a person is denied
privileges to which his character and knowledge en
title him ; whenever he is injured in his reputation, or
obstructed in his lawful exertions, on account of his
faith ot distinctive sentimental he is nenwented. ,,H
that by the same spirit which carried the martyrs of
luii.irr .(jo 10 me siase. i nere is Mr. 11. a young
man of fine intellect, good habits, and engaging man
ners, who is kept at a respectful distance by those
who monopolize the, right of deciding upon every
ones claims to respectability. And there u Mr
H. a young man of feeble intellect, deoraved moral..
disgusting manners, and a regular visiter of certain
unmentionable places, who we perceive is taken by
the hand and even honored, and caressed by those
who claim to know what belongs to gentility and re
finement, because he is of a certain east of Opinion.
Never will the public morals reach that hio-h stanri.
ard which they should ; never shall we shame mean
ness into secrecy, or place before the rising genera
tion proper motives to virtuous exertion, se lomr
this state of thiug continues. If we wish our chil
dren to cultivate good characters, we must respect
good characters whereever we find them uhil,..
of this sentiment or that and if we wish, to guard
them against habits of dissipation and corruption,
w must show in our social acts, that the vulgar.and
licentious are not respectable, though heirs to large

Having spoken of Latittk in a previous number,
it may not bo uninteresting to your readers, to state
some particulars relative to this character, who acted
so conspicuous a part in the defence of New Orleans.
It is well known that this man, with a band of Har
ratai ians, kept up marauding excursions on the Com
merce of the United" States. Commodore Patterson
received orders from the Secretary of the Navy to
disperse this band of marauders, and was sent on lo
New Orleans for that purpose. Before his arrange
ments were completed, intelligence was received of
tho hostile intentions of the English, Slid it then le
canic a question how he was to act. Our enemies
were then attempting to conquer us, no lews by divis
ion than by, arms. The British Commanders publish
ed Proclamations, inviting tho Spaniards, the Ne
groes, and amongst the rest, the marauders of Barra
taria, to join their standard. Lieut. Col Edward
Nichols made overtures express and direct to Lafitte, j
promising him a guarantee of his property, &e. if he
would join the British standard. This wily Officer
demanded a forlnighf to return a definite answer to
his proposals, and the British Officer does not appear
to have imagined (hat he was preparing to play a
double game, but seemed to flatter himself with the
services which he intended Ifitto would render to
the British arms. But the antipathy which this
Frenchman bore to that Nation, seems to have an
swered all the purposes of nobler qualities. He im
mediately despatched a messenger to the (Governor
of Louisiana with the intelligence, and tendered his
services in defence of New Orleans. He embraced
the favorable moment when he was morally certain
that his former errors wmild be overlooked, to urge
his request. In the critical situation in which New
Orleans was at that time placed, it did not become
the United States to have more enemies than one.
Lafitte, therefore, was invited by the Governor of
Louisiana to join the standard of the United States,
and should his conduct meet with the approbation of
Gen. Jackson, the Governor promised to intercede
with the President to procure a pardon for him and
his followers. Lafitte, on the strength of this assu
rance, joined the forces of the I'niled States, and pe
culiarly signalized himself in the defence of New Or
leans. He was then recommended by (he Legisla
ture as a suitable object for Executive clemency, and
a pardon was thus obtaiucd for himself and all h.s
followers.
The above facts' go to show how dangerous a game
is played by any Nation who endeavors lo conquer,
by holding out such hires and temptations to desperate
men, or savage and unprincipled tribes, (o join their
standard. The British Officer who sought this alli
ance with Lafille, was ultimately (he cause of his
going over to the United Slates. Had il no( been for
this invitation, Lafitte would in all probability have
remained neutral. His hatred to the English would,
no doubt, have prevented him from contributing to the
success of (heir arms, and he clearly would not have
assisted the United States, who was at lh.it moment
laboring for his destruction. The invitatimij howev
er, from the English, furnished him with the means
of making his peace with our Government, and ena
bled him to wreak his resentment on them.
I had the pleasure of examining, not long since, one
of the most beautiful and descriptive Paintings of the
Battle of New Orleans, I ever saw. The picture is
the property of a gentleman wit-h whom I have be
come acquainted since my stay here, and in whose
private Library I had the good luck lo meet with it.
The front of this interesting view r the left of the
American line, with their ramparts of cotton bags, and
the right, is the British assailing party. Along the
Americas line on the foreground, is a group of Ken-
tuckians, in their plain homespun dresses, taking cool
qd deliberate aim at the enemy, whs are with des-
jierate valor attempting ' mount the works. Lsfitte,
the Captain of the Barratarians, is here a prominent
figure, in the act of spearing a bold but unlucky Bri
ton who' had ascended the bags, in the midst of a dis
charge of musketry. Ou the top of the, ramparui,
Gen. Jackson is to be seen, rith a spy-glass in his
band, calmly observing the effects of the tremendous
Tiocing, tbe figure of Gen. CofTte, in Riflemen's
uniform, pointing with animation to the eonfusion of
the British ranks. On the opproriit side, we see the
attacking party. On the foreground, the heaps of
the dead end dying the Officers exciting their men
forward the expressions of rotirage, rnge and disap
pointment these constitute a vivid display of the ha
voc of tli fight. More in perspective is exhibited Gen.
Packenharn, falling wounded' frem his horse ; still
more retired is Gen. Keane ,. borne sway in the arms
of his officers ; Gibbs is still further on, in perspective,
amtdxt hesps of the slain. I have not time or space
to delineate this piedire more at length. Suffice it to
say, that the eye is satisfied and the heart is filled, not
oidy with theJriumphanl associations which il recslls,
hut with a complete and glowinr exhibition of the
deeds of our brave countrymen. I understand1 it is a
miniature copy of White's celbraled Picture of lflfi,
taken from memory, by a young Artist of this City,
several years ago.
Although, my Ilter is sufficiently long already,
yet I cannot resist (he templation, of giving yen, in
connection with this subject, a description of a niost
laughable carricature, done in Plaslerof Paris which
I saw yesterday. Il is a represen(alion of John Bull
on his return from America, after the late w.irV Poor
John stands on a pair of crulelies, with a most mel
ancholy physiognomy. His head, entirely destitute
of hair, has a bandaqe in front, on which is engraven
the words, " iVeie Orleans." On the back par of
his head, John Iirs another bandage, on which is
written " f'laltxhnrg ;" the lower part of his body is
swalherl with another, where we see the word "Chip,
pewa ,-" one of Ins hand. holding the crutch, is hound
with another ligament, en which is written " Haiti
mote;" one foot is destitute of a shoe, where we dis
cover the word "Eur," fie. Ji.lm is accommoda
ted Willi an empty knupxack, although ho bears on
his hreiisl the words " henuti anil ImuIi." The im
age was all covered uiih dirt ami and his coun
tenance prest'iilrd a most ludicrous rueful and wo-be-gone
appearance. Yutir-t,

your Tobacco to get thofmsh'y ripe hefuro culling ;
without this, it is impossible to imike first-rate chew
inj Tobacco. When cut. hun;; on low scaiflds, so
that the tails will he about siji inches from Ihe ground.
Allow it thus to remain FOrne live to eijfht day. as the
weather niay permit. It should not be crowded on
the sticks, or scalFoid, nor uhen put in the hoie ;
thus hunr, it will require but I 'tile if any fire. The
(muses should be open from half-way Ihe bodies up,
so as to admit a free eitculation. If Ihe weather
should m ike it necessary lo fire, it should be made
of seasoned wood, split into small pieces about six
inches long, in small slacks from three lo f-mr un
der each tier j tliw issnough to keep up a Summer
heat in the Sun, which is all il requires, h can hard
ly be ascertained that Tobacco managed in this way
has been hud at all. Koine fear this mode, because
they say it will not keep. Tha difficulty is, that
they strike too soon, and with improper seasons.
Good manufacturing Tobacco should never be thrown
into market at the commencement of the Inspection;
mart the reason; tbe manufacturers are not putting
up fine work so early, and though (he Tobacco he
fine, it is worked iuto common brand-, because it will
not keep till May and September. I havs this year
been compelled to sell Tobacco in February, March
and April, at from $4 50 to $7 5m, when if I had
had the sama in good order in May, June, July and
August, it would hava brought from !)8 to a,.1).
I hwM of yen who have good Tobacco for manufac
turing r shipping, with good man igemert may ex
pect to get a good price. With a request to the
Ed. tors that they will give this as general circula
tion through the Tob.rco section as they can, (if
they think it useful,) 1 beg leave lo say that I hope
to pass through the Tobacco grooms; Counties of tiio
Mate during the months of .September and October,
when it will giye me great pleasure to make the ac
qt aintanea of all that may1 like a more extended con
venation sa the management, prospects, &lc.
