therefore but a very limited amount of

We jrcpose, in few words, to answer

CGracy is that form cf government which

clique either North cr South, East or

will ccnd ice u the peace, happiness,
prosperity and perperuity cf the Union;

Kciiocalisn, come frcm what quarter it
may. If the party called democratic will
adhere without deviation t the principle
its name implies, then- we can act with,
' and labor for its success. We believe it

in every section of the land.. Men who

no legislative restraint.

The attention of a neighboring post
master is called to the above ominous cap
tion!
The mail from this place was made up
on the morning of the 2d' inst, sent ofi
and in. the evening was promptly return
ed to the hourr containing; the identical
packages and papers which were dispatched-
from- this office in the morning-.
This is the fact:
Such conduct as this in. an important
official, elicits the thanks of our citizens
"over tie left" We cannot account for
this palpable dereliction of duty, unless it
was owing- to said postmaster's excessive
interest in the Illinois election.. If that
interest was in. behalf of Americaa cham
pion, S". A- Douglas, we can excuse him,
but we have serious doubts about the De
partment accepting; it as a valid excuse
If you are for Douglas, and did on the 2d
insL. waft yourself to Egypt- thereby
forgetting- to open the mail,, and allowing
the carrier to return the mail matter back
to this office we can but console you
with, our heartfelt sympathy ; your head
will likely be treated as many other heads
have during a few weeks past decapi

From the Topeka Tribune of October
24th, we have more intelligence from the
gold diggings, and intelligence that is as
favorable as any yet received, and cf such
a character as to command fall credence.
The letter is addressed to Mr- Hastings,
by his- son who went out ta the Peak abcut
the middle of July- He sap:
"After an unsuccessful search of six
days for gold, our company divided into
two parties, myself and five ethers in
company- On the second daycf prospect
ing, we found indications of gold sufiicient
to induce us ta go- to- work. We accord
ingly went to digging, each, in his own
way, as no one was used to the business ;
but considering the distance we were
obliged to carry the dirt for washing we
were well satisfied with, the first three
days' work, which by the best means we
had cf judging, yielded about nine dol

For the first time in the history of emi

in the movement towards Australia and
Canada over towards these shores. The

that for the past three months cf 1 555, the
aggregate number cf emigrants from
Great Eritain was 16,000, cf whem S2C0
were bound for the United States- against

In order to- show what this gentleman;

; From; this you: perceive that the Judge
has not been idle whilst in the Council cr
about his room, where all this bill matter
is to be prepared before presentation-
Whilst in the Council, he is attentive to
the work: of the session, and very seldom,
if ever, found absent' from his seat when
a vote is taken .
Contrast this list with the whole num
ber of bills introduced into the Council,
which, are' in number 120- on file, and you
find that he has performed a very large
proportion of the actual labor of the ses-sion-
The above is a practical guarantee of
vigilance and activity on his part, inas
much as he is necessarily bound to guide
and protect them to their finafity.
He has offered several other bills since
the above was written, giving hihi. the
credit of being the producer of over one
fuurth of the bills which have been pre

Sliny speeches were made cn both

j After the Homestead was disposed of,
the next important measure was the in
vestigation of the assessment and collec

to- the- Committee of the Whole House-
Me. Mason moved an amendment to
the first section exempting- all improve
ments from taxation, ' which, was support
ed by Mason,. Rankin, Marquette, and
KHne and opposed by Collier, Daily,
Tafie, Gwyerr and Davis of Cass-
Mr- Steele offered to amend the amend

exceed $2000r and this was supported
by Messrai. Steele,. Clark, Cooper,, and
De Puyv and opposed by Fleming, Sey

The discussiondid not appear to include
the second amendment offered,, but the
arguments advanced were for and against
the original motion to exempt all improvements-
The debate continued to consi
derable length, and until the question had
become exhausted,, when a vote was taken
and. bothi amendments fell,, and the first
section adopted- Many amendments have
been offered and made to the bill under
a running conversational debate, but no
thing of, exciting interest has occurred

- The bill passed the House,, and will

give general satisfaction, except probably
the specific road tax of three dollars on
every quarter section- There is a. road
pole tax of one dollar and fifty cents,
which can be worked out at one dollar
and fifty cents per day- Then a specific
tax on each; quarter section of land is le
vied for the improvement of roads, which
can also be worked out at one dollar and
fifty cent3 per day by the settler or owner
of the land, but if it is not paid in labor,
it must be discharged hi cash, at the Trea

cific tax may be amended in the Council,
so' as to do justice to all' parties-

Our Jenkins has begun to extend his

in the afternoon he took his. usual nap,
andto the surprise of his attendants, did
not snore that in the evening- he wrote
a letter, and used an adhesive envelope,
supplying" moisture thereto by an appli

in a barouche. An approach; to this ia
being made weekly by strolling' anecdote

some motive or other, or probably frcm
no motive at all, but in the sheer enlores-

make it appear an astonishing' circums

assume the airs anil state of a European
monarch- A few weeks ago we had a
long-letter in one of tiie country papers,
telling us of the writer's having: seen Mr
Buchanan taking' his turn at the common
wash-basin of a. relay house, having" re
fused the use of a private room, up stairs,
wiping" the presidential face with the pu
blic; towel, and tying- his cravat at tne
common looking"-giass.- The correspon
dent waa astonished, not that Mr- Bucha

and accustomed' all his life to cleanliness,
should' deliberately prefer to performi his
ablutions in a common wash-basin in pub
lic to making- them, m a privatu room ap

the President of the United States should
wash his face in company with, private
citizens- It was the equalitT and not the
publicity of the affair which struck: hini..
Ancther Jenkins has more recently
been regaling- us in the colums of the N-T-
Observer with, an account cf a visit he
paid to the said Mr: Buchanan at Wheat
land.. That such stuff as it contains should
find a place in a. journal making more
than ordinary- pretensions to gravity, is
of itself sufficient to suggest an enquiry
as Jo what we are coming to.. The letrer
itself iaapieceof dull absurdity,, and is
anTy worthy of notice for the light, in
which the writer, and we dare say, many
of his readers no doubt regard the Presi
dent of the United States. He is through
out treated as an exact counterpart of
iluropean sovereigns, and the broadest
surprise is expressed in every line at his
not imitating them- The dullard who fa
vors us with, his experience, finding him-
seir m .Lancaster, and finding- that Mr.
Euchanan was "rusticating,T at Wheat
land, felt himself bound, as dullards jren
erally do to- hunt up- the notoriety, and
lninct a visit on mm an operation wnicn.
these disgusting- bores always dignify
with the term "paying their respects."
Having-brought the g-entleraan to pay.
we are told, in a tone of profound aston
ishment that he came out of his parlor,
received his pursuers in the hall, invited
them to sit down and chatted with, them
in his own house, with, as much ease and
(TP. ml fl M Tinr fl 3 inir nt.ai rnr tlamnn
q w. m..l .w JT UkUi.Jk( ll'r H'lil
would display under like circumstances.
The next incident ia an emetic of the
most powerful kindz - . v.
"Nothing about this, truly graat man is
more wonderful than tne ease and sim
plicity of his manners in private life- He
throws off all reserve, and makps hia vi
sitor feel quite at home, in hia presence.
VVniie we sat there, a rcuini, Laboring
man, walked in without a coat, and salut
ed the President, 'Good morning, Sir,"
and handed him some newspapers. The
rich broguer betrayed the man's nation
ality. Mr. B. replied with, a calm smile.
Thank your took the papera and the man
left"
Think of an Irish laborer, in hia shirt
sleeves, approaching- the President in his
country house, handing him a bundle of
newspapers, and saying- "Good morning-.
Sir and mare wonderful still, think cf
the President saying iThank yon," and
"smiling calmly.'"
We next learn that the' Sunday follow-
.?t .
ing- tne above- astounding- circumstance,
tne same great man walked two miles to
church- "Hia feet,'r when he got there,
says the veracious correspondent, "were
covered with dust, anil, the perspiration
stood on his forehead-"" Think of the au
dacity of the dust in covering the feet of
our Chief Magistrate, and of the. perspi
ration in standing- on his forehead!
Moreover, when he entered the church,
"the congregation made no stir-," they
neither rose from their knees-, nor bowed
to him,, nor cheered himTnor in any other
way made fools of themselves, nor dese
crated the building so our traveler is
astounded. - "After church the President
walked devoutly," he adds, "and entirely
unattended through, the streets cf Lan
caster"" We do not pretend to know
what sort of a gait "a devout walk 13, cr
what sort of a train is expected to fallow
the President of the United States through
the streets of a country town on Sunday,
but we da know that the publication cf
such rubbish as we have quoted above ia
calculated to make both the President and
the writers of it laughing- stack cf the
public. There is just aa much flunkey
ism, snobbishness and folly d:splayed in
such, gossip as this, as in the most arrant
nonsense that ever appeared in any Court
Circular. Will these roving- blockheads,
who make a practice of cooking up des
criptions cf people's houses and reporting
what great men have for dinner,, ever be
got ta remember tfr.-ir it is almost inexcu
sable, in a foreigner even, not to knew
that royally confers, hi monarchical coun
tries, net only crUcial, but social superio
rity ; whilst the Presidency cf the United
States confers official superiority alone ;
that in the exercise of his functions the
President is the first man cf the Union,
but that as James Euchanan at Wheat
land he is, in the eye of the law, the
equal of the coatless Irishman aye, even
the equal c the Observer s correspondent
and in the Church a worthless deprav
ed sinner, whose best wcrla are dirty
razsl
J. Clancy Jones, who was tendered
: the appointment of Minister to-Austria,
