n It no K V I LL K. 1 N p. FBID AY NÖVEnBER 11, 1353. Ieflalr 0r Puin. The following, from Horace Creel, may be taken, with alight modifications, as our position in reference to politics. We are glad to find so distinguished a man as Mr. Greely agreeing with us. We shall now take courage, ami, if we are readout of all parties, u we have been frequently, we shall not fearp knowing thatGreoly has been read out also. We are glad however, that we have no tears to sheJ over hiving, in earlier life, hurrahed and shouted to elect party ticket. We never but once vo ted a party ticket, and for that we did penance more than twelve years ego. The Italicising in the extract is our own, as being peculiarly consonant with our feelings, and explaining our position better than we can do it ourseJf. - Aod we believe that nine tenths of the rea ders of the American are of the opinion that the best interests of the nation will be subserved by the course recommended by Sir. Greely. Hear him: ,M We have done our share at shouting, screeching, hurrahing, exhorting, en treating, to induce our readers to vote for this or that ticket or party. This waa veiy well when we were younger, and when we verily thought the salvation or perdition of our country depended on the iasue of the pending election; but, having outgrown the feeling which im- f elled to this course, to persist longer a the course itself would be hollow hy pocrisy. There was a time when we would have readily voted for a Whig of doubtful capacity or integrity rather than a Democrat personally fit for the post; but we have since discovered, not I. , , ... , ,,. i,-,, merely that we have no moral right to! broad foundations, and its well bu make so great a sacrifice to Party, but that mt party can rtalljf be benefitted by helping its knaves and fools into office. Om the contrary, ire now see that you can do no forty a better service than by tailoring to defeat tuck candidate when presented in iU name.. Heating on urh wilt do the parti more gootl than electing a dozen. , lor judges, at the approaching election, are hall vote for the candidate we deem bfMtouuliSrd aJ mtn.it rrnntrmt. nilhnut . -j v " j... , 1 the least regard to their party predilections. : Far Unat and Assembly, we shall tote for no man whom we do not know to be com- milled to the svpport of the Maine Law? and if there be room for choice among can- äidates equally commuted tothe Maine Law VrZrlLa chance. For local or municipal officers, we shell rrgard,first, personal fitness; arc- j ondljt,kone.t a thorough devotion tothe When President is to be chosen, or some other grave issue is pending, we snail enuesvor to give reasons for the faith that ia in u reasons which shall commend themselves to tho understan ds and consciences of the honest and enlightened; but meantime we shall not load our columns with long addresses, coin, munications, editorials or Speeches, inten ded to bore our readers into voting this way or the other. If we have any Traders vho art hungry for this sort of aliment, they can find it in abundance outride of our columns, and these we believe we can Jill muri to tfuir profit as veil as our own sat; j ufactum. Jf they agree with us generally , in sentient' verj will: if not. thifis a frZ country, and we shall jealously uphold the lilierty of differing in opinion and i' " . . . . . - . I pmuicai acitvn. M e txort our readers, then, to vote just as ' they think be.t at the approaching eJeclion; but at all events to vote. If they art' Whigs or Democrats, Free or otherwise, let them tote accordingly: but let them not fait , to tram Jrom their UlUAs the names fall 1 candidates known to them as unworthy, and fd their places with the names of men fori whom thru will never be anhamed of having Wird, 1. if thry agree triM us that the pat' of the Maine Laie is of tnort const' tage t queue than mm v other matter liktlu to at tract the attention of our nrxt Igilature, let them not be satisfied with merely voting for Maine Law men; let them put forth wir ixi exertions bejore as well as on the tth, to induce others to tote, with them for candidates pledged to the supjmssuin supirrtssion of the legalized lUm 'JVaffu:, I f they live in our City, let them do their best to secure the triumph of Municipal Reform, but let them not vote for a knave or foot because he has smuggled his name upon a Kcform ticket. In abort, Fellow-Citl aenst let us for once act through parties, local or National, when a public good tnsy thereby be achievod, but disregard party whenever It attempla to dictate to a the aupport of dishonest, unworthy oca, or to constrain us to acquiescence in the preparation of such enormities as the corruption now prevalent In our City 1 liorernment, or is trio Hum Trsinc ev ery wbre. Thus will we redec in Politics and Politicians from popular odium, by rendering thorn palpably ana powerfully conducive to the highest pubho good.

Though the walls of this building can not go higher this fall, without beiffg damaged by the frost, yet work Is not to be suspended on the boiWinj. A tern porrry roof is to be pnt over it, and such inside work as cache done will be ac tively prosecuted during the winter. The apparent suspension of the work will give persons fond of croaking a good chance of indulging in their favorite em ployment, though, in fact, the building have been pushed from the first, with com- mendibie energy. Mr. May has had to contend with many difficulties. In the spring it was almost impossible to get stone cutters at any price, and the brick work was delayed, on account of this difficulty. He then had to contend with an unprecedented rise in the wages of workmen. But he has gone on rapidly, notwithstanding. At what time the house will be ready for use, it is impossible to tell, but it will be earl next spring. But, when finished, it will be such a building as will reflect honor on all who have had any thing to do with it. The thanks of the County are due to the commissioners who, fear less of the abuse of the nigardly, devised such a building. And we are glad to be lieve that nine tenths of the tax-payers approve their course. The hou will not only be convenient for the purposes of justiccand for offices; but its artistic beauty will please the eye of evry beholder. But beanty has not been consulted at the expense of durability. Every atone and every brick has been laid with reference to strength as well as beauty. This every one knows who haa witnessed its deep and arches. The Architect, Mr. May, will have a property in the building that money can not buy. The reputation which such a specimen of art secures to a man is as much his property as are the dollars be receives, and it should be as criminal to rob him of it, as to defraud him of his money.

From a short ac qnalntance with them and their clever clerk, we take them to be agreeable men in business matters.

It ia with the utmost pleasure, after as acquaintance of many years, that we commend this house to those whose bus iness or pleasure calls them to Cincin nati. ' Its central location is much in its favor, being in the midst of the bus iness of the city, but its experienced and gentlemanly landlord, whe, yet keeps a rigilent look oat for the comfort of bis guests, is its chief recommeadation. Everything that is needed, is in the right place, at the right time, and guests can not help being pleased. After an acquaintance with the chief Clerk, Mr. Hamline, we do not wonder that certai n young ladies hereabouts prefer atopping at the Dennison, to any other place In the city. Indeed, we heard a very in telligent married lady, a few days ago, bestow a meed of praise upon him that would have made him blush, had he heard it, and which would have appear ed tobe flattery, but for the conscious ness that he must feel, of endeavoring to make every body feel at home. For aeveral months there haa been a desire expressed by many of those who fre quently visit the city from this place to agree upon some good house sa a ge n eral stopping place. Such an agree ment exists, in some places, and there are many manifest ressons for it. We are all liable to sickness, or other mis fortunes, even upon a very short stay. Then it is very desirable to see a familiar face, and receive assistance from the hands of an acquaintance. Business may detain us several days. A later ar rival from home brings ns Intelligence that we highly prize, or we are enabled to send some word home by thoae re turning. But we have not room to enu merate the advantages. They will read ily suggest themselves to all who have ever been abroad. In conversation on this aubject laat aummer we found more to prefer the Dennison than any other, and we hope that it will become the Brookville House. We know of no better house, and cordially invite our fellow-citizens of the county to meet us there whenever they have occasion to visit the city. Illeed and Vengeance. A few weeks sgo we received four pa ges of foolscap, written as editorial, in imitation of the immortal Tim Thrux ton, and hailing from,Mechaniceburgh," with kind offer to furnish a similar quantity, once a week, for treasonable consideration. We laid it away careful ly in a pigeon hole, Intending to write a private note to the author as soon aa we got a little leisure, and give him some encouragement, but our plans were all thwarted a few days ago by receiving the following, written in blood, or in Poke Berry: MrT.

The election of a full Maine Law Ticket from the City of Baltimore, to the Legislature of Maryland, makes a long stride in the onward march of the Tem perance Reform. Hitherto, the great Cities have been supposed immovably wedded by appetite, interest and habit, tothe side of Liquor Licenses, whatever might be the sentiment ot "the rural districts. But Baltimore has dispelled the delusion. Her triumph is no for tuitous slipping In of one ticket by the division of its opponents on several There were but two tickets supported the Democratic and the Temperance; and In a City strongly Democratic, and by no means conspicuous for its Tem perance, the Maine Law has carried. frThe Gospel Herald, a Universal ist paper published for a number of yeara at Madison, Ind., has been removed to Indianapolis.

FatEMD Goodwini I have recently been reading the Isctnres, on Colonization, of Da vid I hrlaty, Esq., of Oxford, Ohio, who is area! of ths Colonization Society. They are four In number, aod cover about 200 pages. The first two were delivered originally be fore tne Ohio Legislature. Tbey have also been delivered, by request, before some of ear literary societies. The 3rd was address ed te the Ohio Constitutional Convention, and the 4th to the public in general.

Ths country Is congenial to. their taste, and there they msy thrive, whilst the white man is debarred by. huTnatsral constitution from ever latruding to any extent They ought 10 late m . precaution to forbid ths ad mis alon of any white roan as a citizen ' I . Introduce, also, the following extract from his first lecture, to show how well adap ted Liberia Is to aaawsr all the purposes for which it Is recommended by the friends of colonisation. ' v "In Liberia all the basinets is In the hands of colored men, and some of them have aeco melatsd fortunes. Their success has encour eged 'Others to follow their example, and in dustry is beginning to prevail. The great work of tropical enttivatlon by free Ubor has been successfully commenced by the freemen of Liberia. Tropical pro J acts have been ex ported ia small quantities from the colony to England. Its coffee was found to be superi or to that ef all other couotrles, except Mo cha, and about equal to it. The cofTee tree, in Liberia, produces double ths quantity, an nually, which that of the West ladles bears. Its cotton, a native of its forests, ia of a su perior quality. Its capacity for producing sogar has been tested, and found equal ts any other country. Capital and labor only are re quired to make Liberia more than rival Lou isiana, because frosts never touch its crops, and laborer will not be thrown Idle in the former, from thst cause, as they are 10 the latter. Such ia the nature of the soil and climat of Liberia, and such the easy cultiva tion of the products used for food, that the labor of a man, one-third of his time, will supply him with necessary subsistence, leav ing him the remaining two-thirds for mental improvement, and lo cultivate articles for ex port- An industrious man in Liberia mutt, therefore, become rich, and able to indulge his taste for the elegaucies of life, leading htm to the purchaae of foreign commodities. All that Is noeded In Liberia to develop iti resource, and to give It the ascendency ever all other portions of ths tropical world. Is cap ital and labor. The first can be abundantly supplied by England; the second by tho Uni ted Slate and Africa." The above shows that Liberia is even now, every desirable home for the colored man, and contains elements wf wealth and power, that must speedily make of it a strong and powsrful nation. The resources only need development, and the citizens have already given evidence of their ability to develop them. They have also r-.hiMt.-d a capability for self-gorornment, altogether unexpected, even by the warme! friends of the race. And this, too, has been accomplished with but a slight degree of mental cultivation on the part of Its agents, what then may we rea sonably expect ef them, when they have had auoh advantages from experience and cultlva tlon as has been so long enjoyed by th An gle-Ssxon race? Msy they not yet give proof, that their Inactive, sluggish minds ar the result of the centuries of phyalcal bond sge, and total want of mental tralulng, to which they 'have been subjected, and not of any natural Inferiority! One circumstance baa szlsted, which has hitherto bee a looked on with suspicion by th friend of freedom. ! refer to the fact that alaveholdera have wished to colonize the free negroes now among them, with the view of rendering mors secure the slsves which they hold' That such would bs its eflVct for a very short period, admit of little donbt; but, should Liberia succeed in th cultiva tion of cotton, sugar, coff -e, and other tropi cal productions, aa we have reason to expect, slave labor must soon become unprofitable, and the Inducements for continuing slavery be thua removed. Fol myself, I have only to say, that, though I should be glad to see colonization urged forward to aa speedy a consummation as possible, yt I should be unwilling to see all other methods of remo ving th curs of slavery glveu up for this. ;. d. "Huron's C'oniinerrlnl College. We took a general atroll yesterday through the splendid edifice recently built by Mr. Ilacon, on tho north-west corner of tho intersection of Walnut and Sixth Streets. Four elegant ond delightful rooms in the third story are now occupied by him as a Commercial College. Ilia class ia already fast fill ing up, and there is every prospect that it will be an unusually large cue. Tho high reputation of Mr, Bacon ns a com mercial teacher, with hia judgment in the selection of valuable assistants guar antees our statement. One room is appropriated excluaivcly as a "study" for the pupils, and is very commodious. It is richly furnished with carpets, desks tablea and everything necessary fur the comfort and elegant convenience of tho students. The Lecture Room is about 35 by 50 feet in extent, and is not surpassed in tasteful adornment by any public room probably In the country. The furni ture throughout is of a chasto and rich 'order, being composed of superb carpet inff, buautiiul arm chairs, and handsome Inir which extends narlr the entire width of it, executed by Marino Uullncr of this city. This represents every emblem of commerce in active lot-otno-tlcti.

It Is gracefully furnished, and as the ladles wuuld any. Is a "love of a place." With the addition of a rosewood couch, It la better lit tod for a bridal chamber than for the company of a em 01 wiiii mercantile students. The fourth room, like the others, has doors of stained glass, snd will bo used by the students as a dressing room. This whole Institution ia undoubtedly the most elegant and flnUhod establish ment, fur its purposes, in tho world j and while it Is exteriorly an ornament to Cincinnati, and should ho tho pride of her merchants, Ulsan undei taking high ly creditable to Mr. Ilacon, alike tolls enterprise and taste. Lest It may bo supposed by our at tempted description of tho elegant rooms ofllacon's Commercial College, that tho expenses of fitting young men for a com mercial education, will bo Increased over former rates, In consequence of this new magnlfurtwe of Mr. IPs apartments, we are authorised to state hat they will not.

As this is the season lor packing pork, there ia a general inquiry aa to the prob able price to be paid and the probablo number of hogs in the country.

The Increase In the crop last voir was about 600,000 head, and should it Increase half that amount '.his year, the excess would be nearly eiunl to the entire foreign de mand'. A European war would be likely to effect favorably the loreign consump tion. Tho high price of Corn will not luve that effect upon the crop of llojrs that is generally supposed.
