THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, Oct. 20, 1858.
Letter from Illinois.
[Correspondence of the Press.]
SPRINGFIELD, Ill.; Oct. 9, 1858
MY DEAR SIR :-Mr. Douglas, (so far as I
know,) during the present canvass in our
State, has never mentioned the President's
name, otherwise than in terms of respect;
and I am satisfied that (publicly) regarding
him as the head of the National Administra
tion, which the Democracy of Illinois assisted
with all their strength and influence to place
in its present position, he will never (except
under the most aggravating circumstances)
attempt to cast any opprobrium upon him
while he remains in the Presidential chair ;
no matter how fat Mr. Buchanan may pass
the bounds of decency in those relations
which are not open to the public eye.
The condition of the Democratic party in
this State may be regarded, figuratively, the
same with that of the French patriots during
the " Reign of Terror." Men, I say men,
whose days have been spent in the service of
their country, and whose zeal for the success
and permanency of constitutional Democratic
principles in the 'adininistration of - our Gov
ernment has been tempered with a conserv
ative respect for the feelings and prejudices
of those whom party predilections would na
turally estrange—such men, who have been
always reliable, always ready and anxious to
sustain the purity of the Democratic party,
are daily subjected to the sanguinary opera
tion of the executive guillotine.
Can Mr. Buchanan hope to sustain a party
for himself through such a policy ? Has he
any knowledge of the impulses and feelings
of humanity ? Does he know that the great
West is peopled by enlightened men, or does
he presume that the whole valley of the Mis
sissippi is inhabited by the wild roving Indi
ans ? What influence, in the name of Heav
en, can be so operating upon him as to make
him a mark for the scorn and contempt of
the whole nation ?
The return of Mr. Douglas to the Senate
by the Legislature to be elected next month,
is as certain as anything not yet recorded
among the events of the past; the sympa
thies of a very large majority are enlisted in
his favor, and they are determined nut to be
deceived nor disappointed.
The success of the State ticket fur treasur
er and superintendent of public instruction
depends upon contingencies which , ,have but
slight connection with the complexion of the
Legislature, and although I consider it prob
able, yet it is matter of so little consequence
in comparison with the other, that the De
mocracy generally are not directing their at
tention closely to it.
A. Damaging Disclosure.
lion. F. P. Stanton; Secretary of :Kansas.
under Gov. 'Walker, in a late speech at Law
rence, made the following statement :
He (Mr. Stanton) came to Kansas in 1557,
believing it to be the intention of Mr. Bu
chanan to deal fairly with the people. Had
not this been his opinion, he would Lever
have accepted the position of Secretary, nor
Walker that of Governor of the Territory.—
Justice demanded the admission that he still
believed the intention of the Athninistration
to have been good. Its present line of policy
was an after-thought. Until the month of
September he and Governor Walker were
sustained throughout by the Administration.
Ile would mention one circumstance which
was not generally known, as showing this
conclusively.
On the Ist of September, General Whitfield
and Dr. Tebbs, of Kansa, who were then in
Washington, signed a letter " expressly sta
ting that the course of Governor Walker and
Secretary Stanton was acceptable to the peo
ple of Kansas, inasmuch as an undoubted
majority were in favor of a free State."—
This letter was written at the special reque6t
of Buchanan, who was anxious to shield
himself from the assaults then being made
upon by the South. Through Mr. Buchal.-
an s agency the: letter was sent to the Union
office, and was actually io type, accompanied
by editorial comments endorsing the charac
ter of Dr. Tebbs as a "gentleman of unim
peachable veracity," when it was seen in
proof by a Southern member of the Cabinet,
who ordered its suppression. Front that day
to this the course of the Administration to
wards Kansas has been a most unscrupulous
and shameful one.
Statistics of Odd Fellowship
The following statistics in relation • to the
Independent Order of Odd Fellows, in the

especially on the part of members of the
Order. The year is from June, 1857, to
June, 1858:

and Territories of the Union, the District of

FORGOT Tun BABY.—The Oxford (La.) Mer
cury tells the following :—"One of our citi
zens went to Water Valley, the other day with
his family. After paying respects to friends
and acquaintances, they got on the train and
started home ;. on the road, one of the little
girls laid down and went to sleep, and was
sleeping soundly when the train arrived here.
The' gnod parents in taking their effects out
of the cars, overlooked little sleepy—the con
sequence of which was, she was safely trans
ported to the junction; leaving the parental
folks feeling like they had let a bird go.—
The father put out in the next train after the
lost sprig, and met her at Waterford, coming
down, having had a fine ride, which she en
j oyed:pasi;ing well."
From California
Rumored Massacre of Several Hundred Men
by the Indians of Oregon—News from
Frazer River.
The steamship Star of the West, has ar
rived with San Francisco dates to the 21st
ult. She brings $1,400.000 in gold. She
left Aspinwall on the sth, and Kingston on
the Bth. Among the principal consignees of
the treasure, are Wells, Fargo & Co., $324,-
000; American 'Change Bank, $111,000;
Schoole Brothers, $102,000 ; Feeman & Co.,
$64,000.
OREGON.—The advices from Oregon•are to
September 1. Various rumors prevailed of
Indian fights. One of these was to the effect
that a train of several hundred men under
Gen. Palmer, formerly Indian Agent in Ore
gon, had been attacked near Walla Walla,
and every one killed.
The California news is uninteresting. The
advices of the success of the Atlantic Cable
occasioned great rejoicing, and Monday, the
27th, had been selected for a grand celebra
tion in honor of the event.
The Government stables at Benicia Bar
racks, were destroyed by fire on the 13th.ult.,
together with the carriages, provender, &c.
The horses and mules were also burned. Jas.
flennesey, one of the Vigilant Committee
exiles, recently brought a suit at Downigville
against the Committee, for damages ; but it
being found impossible to empanel a jury
who were not prejudiced in favor of the Com
mittee, the suit was abandoned.
The advices from Frazer river are to Sept.
7th. The mining news was cheering. The
river was falling rapidly. The miners were
realizing as high as eighty dollars per day.
Dry diggings had been found near Fort Yule.
There were no new Indian difficulties.
A CLERGYMAN MILLED BY A Burg..—Rev.
Samuel C. Parker, of Hinckley, Medina
county, Ohio, met with a terrible death on
last Sunday week, the 10th inst. He was
seen to go into a field in which he kept a
bull, with a pitchfork in his hand, for the
purpose, as is supposed, of driving the ani
mal out. About an hour after, a person
called at his house to invite him to preach a
funeral sermon, and was directed by the
family to the field where they supposed Mr.
Parker to be. On looking for him, he was
found dead, the body tossed over the fence
several rods from where the pitchfork was
lying. The horns and head of the bull were
bloody, and the blood and marks on the
ground, indicated that the unfortunate man
was gored and pitched along by the vicious
animal from where the pitchfork was dropped
to the fence, and then tossed completely
over it.
