4m g JMy-Agreeably to the notice in our last paper, few-and but very few-of our citizens as- sembled at the Court House on Thursday evening last for the purpose of ascertainng the feelings of the people with regard to having celebration of the 4th in this place. A committee of young men was appointed, and the meeting adjourned to Monday evening to hear the report. Monday evening arri- we'd, and no meeting was held-the committee in the mean time, as we learn having come to the conclu- sion that it was not best for them to do any thing un- til more full expression of public sentiment could be had than they had yet heard expressed.

 There is to be whig celebration in Goshen, and a tory in Bethlem-about equal distances from Litchfeld-so that those who disposed to join in

 party celebration of the day will have the opportun y to go either way, their inclination or party feel ing may carry them.

 MIR. ED1roR-As there appears but little spirit ma infested in celebrating the anniversary of our nation al independence by the people of this town would it not be expedent for that portion who are zealous ad vocates for HARRISON and TYLER (and there are no good whigs but what jealous and untring towards consummating change in the General Government to assemble in good season on the morning of the 4th inst at the Mansion House, or some other suta ble pace-being we'll prepared with appropriate em- blems, banners, &c.-and proceed in body to the spirited town of Goshen? Wings of ofLitchfeld, what say you? Shall a town in the county outnumber us at this gathering of kindred brethren-composed of the bone and snew of the whig county of Litchfed? Awake to action! Your sober second thoughts" must be put ill requisition Mree more suns have set A HARRISON MAN.

 lit has been suggested to us from various sources in the spirit of the above suggestions and we have been requested to give it publicity, that all wlo cal culae to attend from this town, meet in the village at o'clock in the morning, and thence proceed to Go shen. We understand that several persons from the western and eastern parts of this calculate up on attending so, would it interfere with their ar to come to the village first, and meet those who go from here Let it be holiday with the farmers-let the mechanics lay by their tools and the professional men may as well have little respite from their toll at this time.

 We are often asked, if there are to be any address ses on the occasion? In reply-we know nothing of the details of the arrangements of the committee ex- cept far to learn that application has been made for that purpose to two or three gentlemen from Hertford-among others, Charles Chapman, Esq. one of the most able and caustic public speakers in the state.-EDl

 Louisiana.-The election for members of Con- gress-the first that chooses-takes place next week. The candidates are, as gather from the papers, Edward D. White, Thomas G. Morgan, and John Moore, whigs; and Gilbert Leonard, James B. Daw- son, and Richard Wnn, tories. The election is by districts-all in the present Congress whgs but calculate that the whgs will lose the second district, which before was carried by the strong personal popularity of MT. Chinn, who we arc sorry to see is not a candidate for reelection. Until recently there were two whig candidates in the New-Oreans dis trct, but Judge Guion has withdrawn, leaving the field to Messrs. White and Leonard.

 In August, number of the Southern and Western States hold their electons-Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, and North Carolina-but not, we believe, for Congressman.

 We perceive by the Congressional proceedings of Saturday last, that WM. L. SroRRs, one of the mem- bers from this state, resigned his station preparatory entering upon the duties of Judge of the Superior Court to which office he was elected hy the last le gislature.

 The Springfeld RoJbery.-We hear nothing further of this affair. The person suspected ofthe robbery who passed through this place was not apprehended. Several persons have been taken up in the neghbor hood of Springfield and other places, confronted with the gentleman robbed, George W. Rice. but not recognized by hinE He thinks he should know the real robber the moment he cast his eyes upon him. MT. Rice has recovered from his injury.

 Desiructipe Fire.-A very destructive fire broke out in the business part of Penn-Yan, N. Y, the morning of Tuesday of last week, which before it subdued destroyed six dry goods stores, three groceries, two three mechanics shops, and about as many dwelling houses. Loss estimated at about S5o,OOO.

 The locofocos are parading in their columns list of names of distinguished gentlemen who have re- gently left the whg ranks and gone over the loeos of them at such distance that they have not yet had time to contradict the ruaor One of them, however, the rumor has reached the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. HUNTER; upon which the Alexandria Gazette says, "We are authorized by friend of Mir. Hunter say that he has mol de- clared hmselfin favor of Mir. Van Buren," We be- Eeve this will be found to be the case with some of the others as soon as they shall hear of the rumors As to MT. Rowan, of Kentucky, We imagine he never was whig. He certainly was a Jackson man, and

 Senator from Kentucky during the fore part of his administration, and was superseded by either MT. Crittenden or MT. Clay because he misrepresented the feelings of the State. MT. C. A, Wicklfe was also Jackson member of Congress under Jackson's administration. If he or Mz- Rowan were ever whigs, it must have been for a short time only, and they have returned to their vomit."
