The nigger-organ of last week asks why we
don't publish the speeches of Bigler, Green,
Fitch, the letter of Judge Black, &c. There
is tjuitc a diffeneus'e between such stuff aud o;-
lieial atitiiial messages ol our executive officers.
The one is presuuiti!, at least, to treat of the
idfaiis between our own and other governments,
iecoiiiuieudaiioiis of measures for the public
weal, The others are political, partizuu
speeches aud letters, that would be of u<> inte
rest to any one. Judge Black's letter is a
disgrace to the position he holds, aud was uu
dre.s-.ed to a partisan meeting of the worst
population of Philadelphia.
But we will make a proposition to ihe nigger
organ: It it will publish the speech of Doug
las, the whole letter of ex-Governor W aiker,
and the letter of Frederick P. Stanton, late
Secretary of lvausas Territory, ull of thetn
Lneofocos, we will publish the speech of Big
ler, and the letter of Judge Black, the last,
we presume, occupying about as much room as
tbo former. What say you?
The Gazette savs, tint '-lie (Gov. Pollock) tickles
ihe ens of the Know .Nothing and throws a sop to
the Abolitionists." Then ha was after you, with a
long pole, .Mr. Myers, wasn't he.— lnquirer.
\Z~?- Not halt as l-.tig a one as that with which
H. Bu.hei Svroo; e 1 ist tall stirred up your rotten
Ca.'C:t>>, Mr. buzzard. Nigger Organ.
3CP" The same one, we presume, that stirred
\~u up, m tile campaign of 'SG, when you were
engaged in Somerset County initiating Know
•Ac tilings 'nd making Know Nothing speeches!
A fit: the pole touched you, you turned round
una made speeches on the other side! You
were ftush d.en. but before, it is well knowu
you were out oj sorts!
The niggtr-orgnn says, that Bowman, tiie
]• resent Superintendent ot public printing at
Washington, in giving out contracts for the
paper to be used by the Government, for tbo
next year, saved ueariy §13,000 over last
veer! The late Superintendent wis a Loco
foco, and at the prices ho paid, there ought to
have been double liiat amount saved to the
Government ! A pietty good pill, about
§13,000, which the immaculate Bowman didn't
save to the Government! io whose breeches
pockets is it !
>EW PAPER.—U. J. JONES, Esq. is about
to commence a new Democratic paper in Ilolli
daysburg. The pro-pectus has been issued,
and the indications are that it will soon bo un
der way. We presume it will support the
Douglas, Walker and Forney wing of the De
mocracy. Mr. Jones, but a short time ago was
the leading editor of the Standard, and is the
taleuted author of the History of the Juniata
\ alley. Since Mr. Jones has ceased writing
for that paper, its editorials are as insipid as
the editor's brains. None, bnt swiuc feed
from that trough. "That's so."
Next, week Court commences. We presume
it will be quite a brisk Court. Our friends
who are in arrears, and who may be in town,
will please give us a call. The rules at the
h' if of this column will not be departed from.
Please notice them.
A strong effort is now making at Harrisburg,
*o repeal the present license laws, and the pro
bability is that they will be repealed.
Hon. Wilson Reilly has out thanks for a j
very valuable public document.

AMBROTYPES.—We would advise all our
friends who may visit town uext week, and de
sire to bare a good likeness of themselves, to
call on Gettys, in the Odd Fellows building
lie is a citizen of tiie County, aud ought to
be encouraged in preference to sttaugers, and
sides his pictures are lasting and cheap, aud
do not fade in three or four week.-', but will

bahly take a like step soon—as some <>f them
have already resumed.
We have received the second number of

THE UNION AGAIN IN DANG UK-
The 1 legislature of Alabama have unanimous
ly instructed the Governor, iu the event of the
refusal of Congress to admit Kansas under the
Lucouipton Constitution, to call n State Con
vention t<> determine upou measures of redress."
The Alabama Legislature, some weeks since,
resolved, that such action on the part of Con
gress would be good cause for dissolving the
Union.
This is a preliminary movement, to be fol
lowed ni othei Southern States,dragooniug Con
gress into adopting the Lccompton Constitution,
or, in the event of failure in that case, to pre
pare the way for an actual disruption of the
Confederacy. The W ashiugtou Republic savs:
There are men who go to the Capitol every
day, and take their seats in the Senate and
House, who scarcely affect to conceal their trea
sonable hostility to the Government under which
they live. If the Leeomptou Constitution is
rejected, they will do their beat to induce a
general withdrawal from Congress of the South
em mer.bcts. We believe that they will igno
miuiously fail, but that they will make the at
tempt, i.s certain.
In the meantime, not a moment should ho lost
in arous'ng the country to the true state of af
fairs, and iu concentrating such expressions ol
public opinion as will preveut the legislation of
Congress from being controlled by Southern
bullying. We have had enough of i:. It has
became intolerable. The Free States have suf
fered 100 much humiliation already. Tbe Bob
adils ol Alabama, ami kindred spirits elsewnere,
must be taught a lesson. Now, or never!
CONFESSION'-
CHARLOTTE JONES, the unfortunate woman
condemned to death as oue of the principal
actors in the M'Keesport tragedy, has made j
last confession, which it is said is to lie used as
a means of swaying Executive clemency in
FAVOR of MONROE STEWART, also condemned
as a participator in the same crime. But
little credence i.s attached to this confession
by the Pittsburg papers, from the fact that she
has from the day of her arrest, shown au utter \
disregard of the obligations of the most sacred
oaths, aud as deliberately implicated one of
her own blood iu the most horrible of crimes,
as she carelessly exonerated him when the
allegation could serve no possible purpose.— j
With equal deliberation she made MONROE
STEWART a principal in the transaction, scaled
her lips as to his innocence, uutil the sentence i
of the law had been passed upon bim aud all :
hope of escape was extinguished, and then— |
and not till then—consented to corroborate '
FIFE'S acknowledgment of his innocence, aud ;
published to the world an autobiographic ;
narrative of a wretchod life, now about to
terminate iu iufamy. In this she professes to
"tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth," concerning her life-doing* up
to tbe day of her incarceration, and asks the
public so to believe it. Her whole confession
abouuds in the most improbable stories, and
in several instances her declarations meet
with a flat contradiction front persous to whom
reference is made in her shameful narrative.
The Leeomptou Constitution.
CONGRESSIONAL.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2, 1858.
A message was received from the President,
transmitting the Leeomptou Constitution, which
was read. It quotes the severe language of
Governor Walker, when in the Territory, de
claring "the City of Lawrence as being the
hot bed of abolitionism."
It says the dividing line iu Kansas is uot ;
between the two great political parties of the
country, as in all other places, but it is be
tween those who are loyal to the Government
and those who are endeavoring to destroy it by
force and usurpation. It says, Kansas is at 1
