VOLUME X NUMBEK 57 WILMINGTON j N. C, THURSDAY MORNING JULY 6, 1855: WHOLE NUMBER Uo9 MISCELLANY. - , J . MY CIRCULAR. . -To Mr. Clay, and Mr Polk, and Mr. DaU las and 'Mr. Frelinghyscti. espected Gistlemes: -I s'pose you &ot th;it letter toiher daj from, some of our . folks here , at few - York, signed by Mr. Mc Murray, Mr. McLaughlin, Mr. O'Sulli. Van; Mr. O'Donnell, Mr O'Neill, and a half k dozen more of 'em. It was something of a long yarn, but 1 m anute us . one of the Vnost kindest and most" benivolent letters I have seen for a long time.; , I . can't never eii anybody do a kind and . beDivolent thing without feeling "all over as if I wan ted to do jest so too. And that are letter has got me in sich a fidget, that 1 can't be Vnsy till I've .writ you a letter to sho',you that i'ia as kind aa they are. I say it is Jone of the most kindest letters that I ever - see. If a faun asked you for a penny, and then turned jrouod and give you a . dollar, wouldn't you say the kindness was pretty much all on his side.- Mr. McMurrayand the rest ask you for a jeetle streak of light as big as the newj moon before ; it's a day old, and thjen they go on and pour out the Jight 'to you enough to darken the sun- at . yioonday,t. They jest , ask you ; for a little bit ofyour notions about Native Ameri 'cans, "and naturalization, and so on, and then they go on of thei,r own free will and accord,1 through three or four columns and tell you all about the Native American fac tion, and .Roman, Catholics, t and Protest ants, and riots, and murders, and Washing ton ana Jenerson, and jviajor J.oan, ana a hundred more thinsrs which will eive vou more light about these matters than ever you bad before; for a great deal of it is what nobody ever s knew till they, writ if, and therefore it must be new to you. - Now I say, Mr. Clay, and Mr. Polic, and Mr. ". Dallas and Mc. JTrelinghuysen, I'm as . be nivolent as these ere giniletr en that have , writ you this long letter. And as I am . very anxious that you should see their light in the clearest light possible, I want jest to . Jjold up a few little spots In their letter for you to. look at again.. ;.They say, "A faction orclass have arisen in our city, assuming the name of 'Native Ameri cans.' pledged to oppose the.naturalizalion of our brethren from other lands, or, which is nearly the same thingj to exclude all for eigners from naturalization until they have been resident among tis twenty-one years." .Whetiyou ; see these gintlemen 1 wish ..you would -jest ask them ? how long it is since they ucome over."; I'meure it can't - be long, from the warmw feelins they still have lor ibeir .'-brethren in other lands' As to this "Native American faction," that's as plain as the nose on a man's face. There is such a faction here, and a roost outrageous great one too. " I. guess you'd a thought so, if you'd.,a' seen 'era . paradin election. And they are getting up such a taction all over the country., fcsut 1 don' think there's much danger of its doing any hurt, because these gintlemen that writ you this letter have undertook in their kind be ' n e volence to nut it . down. " Sich factions .icitt spring , upa sometime ; Pve hearn old folks tell about one, a,, kind of a Native American i faction, that broke out some " where about fhe year 1775, at Lexington and Bunker Hill., and. made considerable of a fuss in them days. But it worked it self out, and 'twas thought it did more good , than hurt after all. : '.,, . . 'l ' u . . l r . : t. - - . illy iiv ri r I I i .. lai'iimi i . u . nnacnoc inn . . iuiij ' u my vivify y3aoaiWU of the city government, and its leaders and presses, aided by the vast patronage of the corporation, advocate the principles of a national or la vored re Jgion.'' . , . That's news : that's .one of the streaks of light that nobody ever see before these gintlemen writ it. ... ,.. -r ,UT he body of persons thus banded tr gether upon persecuting intolerant pnnci pies,' have, disturbed the peace of society throughout,the Union, while their adher ents in the sister city of Philadelphia, have, oftener than once, - within the last few months, risen in open rebellion against the laws, inciting a portion . of the people to deeds ot treason, blood and arson." . The truth of the case is, as near as I can come at It from' the ' Grand Jury and all concerned, the faction was peaceable, and quiet as lambs in ' Philadelphia, .till their "brethren lrom other lands" began to shoot them down : and 1 in that case, most any faction would be for; kicking .up. a row. " . "At the civic election here Jast spring, a majority of the voters of the party, called Whig, abandoned their party, organization and candidates, and united with the 4 Na tive Americans.as did a lesser, humberof those called Democrats, thus enabling the most intolerant faction ever known among us to obtain the control of the city govern medt,", - S-v-- ; Now that's a bad business. When such respectable folks as Whigs and Democrats " take skies with a Native American faction, ftnd cut up such shines, it! is high time they were lookedafter, and these gintle tnen letier-.writers can't be too quick ia get ling every one of 'em indicted, , . , Washington deliberately approved a Naturalization law, which only required a ,trob;ttioi of two'years without . any pre vious notice whatever." .4 Wash mgton was a very clerer man, and had as much gumption as a most any body, ,and generally did what was .the ; best for the tune ; and I take it the light the , gin t'emen have thrown out here goes to show, that 'T. we come into the house "with, an em, y stomach, and. take a cup of tea, and feel refreshed by it, in about fifty years af terward i we ought to swallow the tea-kettle, and it'll da us good' - , : ; These gintlemen letter-writers seem to in?'.it that the Native American faction are a goirj to c-ubl-sh th - " 'rotestant religion as tha law cf the land, -nd " proscribe all otr.cr sorta of re!" jion. ' And they say Ma jor N h, a Jew, .ii leading the faction on wuh ail his miht. . Th a is juite a brisht streak cf i; -ht. anj fcho-Ao a good ways: 'V Ol to wr.?

Albert Uallatin Charles Thompson, Robert Morris. Thorn as Addis Eaimut; Gates, Barry, De Kalb, Montsrotnery, Steuben, Kosciusko, Mercer and Lawrence will be lost to us in future They were all of them born foreigners." - Ye3, that's a fact, that's well thought of. And we should loose more than that, too; we should loose Capt. John bmith, of Vir ginny, and William Penn, of Philadelphy and Governor Stuyvesant, of New York and all that little band of stragglersthat come over to Plymouth in tne May J? low- er. Yes. we should loose the whole of 'em. - --.. - These jrintlemen letter-writers quote Mr. Jefferson, and seem to think if be was here he wo'ild kick this Native Amenrftn fac tion all to Hinders But they are mistaken there ; Mr. Jefferson was a bad man ; . he was nothing but a Native American : and if he was here now. he'd belong to this faction, and lik ly as not, be v ring-leader of it. . Here's what Mr.. Jefferson once said about this business, which I think shows pretty clear where he stood, ; or where he would stand, if he was here now. "To the principles of our Government, nothing can be more opposed than the maxims of absolute monarchies. Ye from such we are to expect the greatest number of emigrants They will bring with them the principles of the governments they leave, xmbiaed m thnr early youth: . . " in proportion to their numbers, they will share vilh u the lesriddtion. Thev will infuse into it their spirit, warp and bias its directions, and rend er it a heteroeeueous, incoherent, distracted mass " ' v- ' '" ?Now. Mr. Clay, and Mr. Polk, and Mr Dallas, and Mr. Frehnghuysen, them's my sentiments:. what's yourn? I should be very happy to bear from you at your earli est convenience. Uncle Joshua was well, and so was Aunt Keziah, the last time I heard from DowninsviIIe : and I remain one of the faction, and your old friend, and the Gtneral s friend. i MAJOR JACK downing, -Editor of the Bunker Hill. TREMENDOUS STORM. GREAT DAMAGE 10 PROPERTY. "Philadelphia, July 21. Between five and six o'clock yesterday afternoon the city was visited by a thunder storm of great severity. For about thirty minutes the rain deceuded, not in drops. but in sheets, deluging the city with wa ter. The tide being high at the time, the culverts cduld not discharge the wa ter which rail into the inlets, and the consequence was that the streets were flooded and hundreds of cellars were in undated. - ? In the parts of the city where the BTound is low. the water was breast- high in some instances, and barrels, boxes, crates, heavy timbers,&.c.f &c, were floated along in the centre of the streets."- . , The consequences were 01 course disastrous, the loss to private, property was immense, and the culverts suffered severely. f The Twelfth, Thirteenth and Four teenth Wards suffered severely from the storm. Parrish street, from Broad to Fifths was the chanuel for a perfect flood which poured down with iesist Iess force the water spreading in many places as far south as Brown street, and to Poplar street on the north. Very few cellars within these bounds escaped, and and in several instances they were com pletely filled with Water. On the west side of' Ninth street, from Brown to Poplar streets, the water was from three to four feet in depth. The laboratory of Power & Weightman, at the corner of Ninth and Parrish streets, was inundated. The cellar was so full of water that the first floor was raised in several places. The loss of this firm is about $15,000. Along Niuth and Tenth streets, in this neighborhood, the cellars all suffered more or less. , At Fifth and. Poplar streets the wa etr was very deep, fil'ing the cellars, and in some low spots, covering the first floors of houses. - The. culvert at this poiut-gave way. All the cellars on Fifth - street, from Brown to Poplar streets,! were filled. r At Randolph . and Poplar streets the culvert caved in; a carriage contain-. ing four ladies was being driven over it at the time, and the vehicle was much broken. , . ".. ': . . - i The new culvert in Thompson street, in the "Twentieth Ward, bursted at Sixth street. All the cellars along Thompson street, were fil led with wa ter. ?r v e- u, j-V-'vIVX 2 The Cotiocksin overflowed its banks and did much damage, flooding cellars and , carrying -away out houses. At Clinton and Jeffet son street, in the 17th, Ward, a tan yard was completely un der water. . , : -. ti , A perfect river poured through Ridge avenue filling cellars and.floatiog every thing moveable.that came in the 'way of the ' torrent' An individual, who took shelter from' the rain in a lime box was rather' surprised to : find, himself sailing down the middle "of the street. , long - Llarket" street much damage was done At tne norm west corner ot Fourth and Market streets the stores in the Jbaseracnt were deluged The loss here was serious The water at this point rose' to a great height . in riarket street near f iun, jue?srs. Samuel Hood & Co.'s cellar was filled, in consequence of the" caving in of a vault wliicli was' in '.the course; of corf- Shalfer, Roberts &, Co., Hays & Zell and others in the immediate vinnity sitfleied consideiahly. The loss 10 these grntlemen will amount to several thou sand dollars. " , Th cellar of the drug store of Mr. C. C. Moore, at . the north east corner ot 18th and Vine streets,., was , completely filled. fThe water destroyed ahont $1, 000 worth bf goods there. - fJr Knight's basement, tin the dppo site corner, was also filled, so that the furniture from the office, in the base meut, came floating out into the street ; the fire in his kitchen was put out, and all its furniture, carpets, floated a bout. A valuable library, in his office, is much damaged. All the cellars in this neighbourhood were more or less filled. ,.- : Along Chestnut street, several cellars were partially filled: The basement of Bazin's, Oakford's and other stores at the southeast corner ot Seventh st eet, had about three ffet of water in them The basement of th Inquirer Buildiug came in for a libeial share of water. The culveit along the Frankford Road, above Duke st.j caved in and rendered the toad impassible. The culvert at West and Vienna streets, in the 18th Ward, also gave way. In the Light VV ard the confined wa ter in the sewer threw a heavy iron plale off an inlet, a distance of seveial feet in the air. In very many instanc es cellars were flooded by the water be ing torced up through drains and the pipes from wat?r closets. Much damage was done in this way. In the 19th Ward (Richmond?) the streets were afloat, but we have not heard of any special damage being done there. In the 24ti Ward West Phia- delphia,) but little rain fell, compara tively; - I he storm seemed to raee with most fury in the upper part of the city. In the lower wards it rained heavily, but much less water fell than in other sec tions. The watery visitation was a blessing down town, as it did but little harm and gave the streets a much need ed washing. In the Sixteenth Ward, the streets were flooded, and hundreds of cellars were filled with water.- v On the river, several boats were out during the storm, and their occupants were drenched to the skin, but we have not heard of any serious accident on the Delaware. In the rural districts the com was bea ten down, and trees were stripped of their branches. A Iaree poplar in the Free Quaker's Graveyard, in 5th street above Spruce, was stuck by lightning and split from top to bottom. At the same time the transom windom of a house in W hita- keHs Row, south of the church, was knocked out by the force of the shock, and a number of bricks were knocked off the chimney of a house on 5th street A large tree on the gronnds ot the City Hospital in the Fifteenth Ward, was shattered by lightning. I he storm was one ot the most severe. that the citv was ever'visited with. In fact it is not probable that on any for mer occasion the streets contain so great a quantity of water. The loss to proper ty is very heavy. t he good eflect ot the deluge was to cause a very great change in the atmos phere. Before the coming on ot the ram the heat was almost intolerable, but the weather is now cool enough for cloth clothing. ME TRI-WEEKLY C01MEKCIAL Is Dnbliahed every Tvcsoat.
