Senator Douglas' Great Speech.
We shall give in our nest issue, the great
speech of Senator Douglas delivered in the
Senate on Monday, 23d ult., on his resolution
for the protection of States and Territories
against invasion. The mere announcement
that Douglas was going to address the Sen
ate, brought together, in the Senate Cham
ber, the American people. Thousands were
turned away, fur whom there was no room ;
and when the speech was concluded, the uni-
Tersal sentiment was heard, this is the States
man of America, the Man fur the Times, the
fore-shadowed President of the United States.
A DAY or STATE CONVENTION - S.—The 22d
12. f. February, the anniversary of the birth of
Washington, will be a great day this year
for the holding of State Conventions. The
Opposition Convention cf Tennessee will meet
in Nashrillt ; the Democratic Convention of
lowa will meet in Des Moines ; the Demo
cratic Convention of Michigan will meet in
Detroit ; the Whig Convention of North Car
olina will meet in Raleigh; the People's Par
ty Convention of Pennsylvania will meet in
Harrisburg ; the Opposition Convention of
Virg - nia will meet in Richmond, and the Re
publican Convention of Indiana will meet in
Indianapolis.
CoxGaEss.—Almost a Speaker on Friday.
The Democrats and South Americans, with
few exceptions, united on Smith, of North
Carolina, an American, and gave him 112
votes—Slierznan received 106, leaving 10
scattering. Smith had received a majority
of the votes, but bef , ,re the Clerk had an
nounced the result, enough members changed
their votes to defeat hiw. Sherman voted for
Corwin. The House then, in great confu
sion, adjourned to Monday. On Saturday
the Republicans held a caucus, but could not
agree upon a new man. On Monday, on the
the first ballot, Ex-Governor Pennington, of
New Jersey, itopublican, received 116 votes
—Smith, American, 11.5—scattering 3—no
choice. P. S.—Tues.:ay 3P. M.—No election.
We passed a day at Harrisburg last
week, where we met many Democrats from
all parts of the State, end we were gratified
to learn that there appears to be but one opin
ion in the Democratic ranks as to what should
be the action of our State Convention, which
assembles at Reading on the 28th inst.—and
that action to he the nomination of a good
and strong Democrat fur Governor,—the se
lection of Delegates to Charleston by Con
gressional Districts,—to go uninstructed,—
and if any, pass a few old fashioned Demo
cratic resolutions, and adjourn. No one of
the prominent candidates for Governor
will accept a nomination on a tangle-foot
platform. They have witnessed two defeats
—they will try to avoid a third—and we hope
they may have sufficient influence with dele
gates to prevent a repetition of past follies.
A glorious victory awaits a united and har
monious Democracy.
TIIE PROSPECTS OF JUDGE DOUGLAS.—Every
day, says the editor of the Somerville (Ten
nessee) Democrat, increases the probabilities
of the nomination of Judge Douglas by the
Charleston Convention. The whole North
west will go for him in one united body.—
The Southern people are becoming satisfied
that he if the man to save the Country from
the perils that now environ it. The North
will be nearly united upon him. He will
probably receive 170 votes on the first ballot,
and then the accession of a few-delegates from
the South will effect his nomination. The
signs of the times are decidedly in his favor,
and we hope to be able to rejoice over his
nomination about the 30th of next April.—
We would hail his nomination as the harbin
ger of a great and glorious victory, leading
to the peace and quietude of the country. If
he is the candidate of the Democracy, that
Marty will achieve one of the most glorious
triumphs in November next that has ever
perched upon its standard since it took up its
march and blazed the bright pathway of the
country's greatness athwart the rush of years.
Give us Douglas and our country will still be
blessed by the beneficent operation of Demo
cratic principles.
THE CANADIAN NEGROES.—Some of the
statements made by the Detroit Free Press
relative to the recent negro outbreak across
the Canada line having been denied, that pa
per republishes the fact that the grand jury
of Essex county. (C. W.,) have presented the
entire black population as a nuisance, and
adds the testimony of several Canadian jour
nals in support of its general statements.
GETTING TIRED OF Ir.—The people in all
sections of the country are getting heartily
sick of the discussions in Congress about "Se
cession" and " Dissolution," and are asking
the question what business members of Con
gress have with such questions more than
any other citizen in the country ? The peo
ple have elected them to attend to the busi
ness of the government, not to provide for the
dissolution of the Union, that never once en
tered into their thoughts or wishes. Yet from
the way that some of the members talk, it
would be inferred that they were especially
entrusted with the power to say when and
bow the government should come to an end.
Such assumptions as these on the part of their
representatives are beginning to call forth
various expressions of opinion from the peo
ple, and members of Congress will soon learn
from their constituents what their real pow
ers are, that they are expected to exercise
them for the preservation of the government,
that they talk so glibly about coming to an
end.
One of the Georgia papers, the Griffin
American Union, alluding to Mr. Gartrell's
disunion speech, says :
" We see, from the report of the proceed
ings in Congress, that Mr. Gartrell has made
a speech on secession, and contended that a
State has the right peaceably to accede from
the Union. Now, all we have to say is this:
—lf Mr. Gartrell wants to secede from the
Union, he is perfectly welcome to pack up
o.rid be off as soon as he pleases, and we hope
that, in his peregrinations, he may come up
with some form government that suits him
better than this. Our country would expe
rience a happy deliverance, if Mr. Gartrell,
and all other disunionists like him, would
quit and be off as soon as possible. Their
places might then be filled with statesmen
and patriots, who would carry on the govern
ment as it should be done. The reason that
Congress cannot organize and proceed to the
discharge of the duties required of them, is
that there are too many fanatical simpletons
there. They know how to keep up a row,
but have no capacity for business."
The New Orleans Bulletin, commenting
upon the remarks of the Georgia journal,
says:—
" Without wishing to be quite so severe
upon the members of Congress as our Geor
got cotempurary is, we must say that there
is a good deal of hard sense in the last sen
tence of the above extract. They do know
bow to keep up a row,' certainly, but as to
their capacity for business' we cannot speak
so confidently. They give the country but in
different proof of the possession of such capa
city. The people sent them there to do the
public business in a business like manner,
and not to spout secession and utter threats
of what they will or will not do. This is not
any part of the business which they were
elected to perform."
AN IMPORTANT BlLL.—Among the impor
tant measures before the Legislature is a bill
introduced by Mr. Dunlap, exempting from
sale or execution the homestead of a house
holder having a family. It exempts from
levy for debt a house occupied as a residence,
of the value of $l,OOO, in addition to what is
now exempt by law, and this exemption is to
continue after tile death of the debtor until
the youngest child is twenty-one years old
and the death of the widow-. Six jurors,
summoned by the Sheriff, are to determine
whether the property is more or less than
$l,OOO in value. If any lot or buildings have
been declared a homestead under the provis
ions of this act, then it cannot be sold or
leased for a longer term than one year, but
reserved for the use of the family—unless
the wife give a deed, or unless one thousand
dollars be pad over for it. to be invested in
other property for the use of the family. If
this bill should become a law, it will have
the effect of hurrying up the cash system
with all persons not worth Inure than the
law will allow them. We are not certain
that such a law would not be an injury in
stead of a benefit to those in comfortable cir
cumstances.
LEGASLITGRE.---We have not discover
ed anything of importance in the proceed
ings of the Legislature, during the past week.
The Opposition majority rule the Democratic
minority as with a rod of iron. To the vic
tors belong the spoils, and-the glory. There's
a better day coming,—" wait fur the wagon
and we'll all take ride."
HEADING OFF DOUGLAS.—On the 16th inst.,
in the United States Senate, Mr. Douglas of
fered the following resolution :
" Resolved, That the Committee on the Ju
diciary be instructed to report a bill for the
protection of each State and Territory of the
Union against invasion by the authorities or
inhabitants of any other State or Territory,
and for the suppression and punishment of
conspiracies or combinations in any State or
Territory, with intent to invade, assail, or
molest the Government, inhabitants, proper
ty, or institutions of any State or Territory in
the Union."
Mr. Bigler submitted a bill on the same
subject, in regard to which the correspondent
of the Cincinnati Enquirer says:
" Mr. Bigler's bill suppressing invasions of
States was an Administration move, to check
mate Douglas' resolution. It appears they
got wind of Douglas' intention, and prepared
the bill which they made Mr. Bigler offer.—
Its only effect has been to throw ridicule on
the stupid mover in those petty schemes of
jealousy."
Having heard of Judge Douglas' design to
move in the matter, the Administration, with
its characteristic meanness undertook to head
him off and selected Bigler as its tool. No
honorable Senator would have accepted the
position.
Judge Douglas supported his resolution in
one of his great speeches to the Senate on
Monday.
EMIGRANT TRAVEL—During the year 1859,
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company trans
ported over their road 14,359 emigrant pas
sengers, most of whom were destined to points
west of Pittsburg. A large number of them
settled in Kansas and lowa.
COMING TO THEIR SENSES.—Quite a num
ber of the Democratic presses have lately
ceased their persecution and "reading out"
of Douglas and his friends. They begin to
see, and feel, that Douglas and his supporters
are not the "traitors" they have been repre
sented to be. The following is taken from
the Fulton Counts Democrat, a paper having
the name of Breckinridge flying at its mast
head. The Carlisle Volunteer is edited by
the Post Master at that place, and has al
ways been a warm advocate of Buchanan's
Administration :
"We most cordially endorse the sentiments
expressed in the article below, which we take
from that sound Democratic paper, the Amer
ican rolunteer, of Carlisle. Pa. It is about
time that the useless and mischievous war
upon Senator Douglas should cease. Al
though we prefer another distinguished gen
tleman as a candidate for President this fall,
yet, if Mr. Douglas receives the nomination
of the Charleston Convention, we will give
him our cordial support. The Volunteer
says :
We notice with regret, that during the
late debates in the U. S. Senate, several of
the " blood and thunder" Senators, suet-I . as
Iverson of Georgia, Green of Missouri, Davis
of Mississippi. and others, considered it their
privilege to renew their attacks upon Senator
Douglas. When we consider that Judge
Douglas has millions of warm and enthusi
astic friends in all parts of the country, North
and South, and that he will be a prominent
candidate before the National Convention for
the Presidency, we cannot but regard those
Senators who now assail and persecute him
as misebiel-makers and disorganizers in the
Democratic ranks. If they but knew with what
utter contempt all well-disposed Democrats
regard their impudent and dogmatical course
toward Judge Douglas, we think they would
show less bombast, and bear themselves with
a little more modesty. No man of ability
and integrity can be put down in this coun
try by persecution. That was atttempted
with Jefferson, Jackson, and Van Buren, and
most signally failed. These Senators, in as
sailing Mr. Douglas and attempting, by un
fair means, to persecute him, are offering an
insult and an indignity to his friends (and
he has more friends than ten thousand Ivor
sons,) and also to the States that have named
him for the Presidency. They may say they
don't care," and may swagger and bluster,
but the people will, we think, should oppor
tunity offer, convince them that their inso
lence will not be tolerated. They will yet
find their level.
The Reaction Beginning
Col. Wade llampten and Major Perry, who
are among the mast influential and respeeta-
ble members of the South Carolina Legisla
tare, have both recently made addresses, re
buking the fell, fire•cating spirit prevailing
in that State. Col. Hampton denounced the
excitement throughout the South, on "North
ern aggression," the John Brown raid and
slavery generally, than nothing more than
shrieks for the approaching loss of power.—
He says that since the days of Jeffersou the
South has had possession of the Government ;
and now, the North, feeling its strength o s.nd
conscious of this Southern monopoly fin• half
a century, demands its share of political pow
er I While he would resort to any means to
maintain the rights of this section, he has no
of dins dution, or that there will be any just
fears cause to adopt this final resort.
Major Perry was scarcely less emphatic in
a letter addressed to his constituents. lle
says he retires from public life with the convic
tion that political excitement is little more
than folly and bitterness. He farther says
the time of the Legislature has been wasted
upon foolish diatribes against the Union, and
Quixotic arrangements with other States for
establishment of a Southern Confederacy,
while the legitimate business of the Legisla
ture has been neglected.
The Rev. Dr. Robert J. Breckinridge, of
Kentucky, has written a powerful and fear
less letter to his nephew, the Vice-President
of the United States, in which be takes the
strongest Union ground ; declares that seces
sion is a revolutionary right only ; that the
election of no man to the Presidency, accord
ing to the forms of the Constitution, would
justify any attempt to interfere with the sta
bility of the Union ; and that the idea is ab
surd that the Constitution carries slavery in
to the Territories. Ile denies that the cotton
States have any grounds of
.complaint; but
that the sufferers from the loss of slave prop
erty, which would be greatly more so if sep
arated, are Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri
and Virginia ; and he appeals to Pennsylva
nia, Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana, to unite with
their immediate neighbors, of all the most
deeply interested in the present trouble, to
rally to the Union and put down all attempts
to disturb our peace, prosperity and happi
ness.---Germantown Telegraph.
AN INIIU3LAN MoNsTEß.—During the late
sitting of the Indiana county Court a man
named. J. C. Stuchal was brought to trial fur
assault and battery upon his son, a lad some
eight years of age, and the evidence elicited
revealed the most brutal and revolting treat
ment of the little victim that has ever been
chronicled within our knowledge. It was
shown that he hung the child, on one occa
sion, to a joist by a rope fastened to his thumbs,
and that while in this position he compelled
a younger brother to kindle a fire beneath
him, so that he was almost roasted to death
before he was taken down. On another occa
sion be laid him on a heated - stove, and sub
sequently compelled him to stand on the
same without either shoes or stockings to pro
tect his feet from the heated metal. The child
when produced in Court, was terribly disfig
ured, and bore upon his delicate person abun
dant marks of the brutality to which he had
been subjected. The jury found the prisoner
guilty, but inasmuch as he had been convic
ted of larceny a short time before, and got
fifteen months imprisonment in the Peniten
tiary, judgment was suspended.
GEORGIA POLITICS.--SAVANNAII, Jan. 26.
At a Democratic meeting held here last night,
Mr. Henry R. Jackson made a speech sus
taining resolutions which favored the Mill
edgeville (Cobb) Convention.
At this point of the proceedings many of
the participants withdrew.
On the adjournment of this meeting anoth
er was immediately organized at the same
place, Collector Barton acting as Chairman.
Resolutions were adopted declaring that the
election of Seward, or any other Black Re
publican who is an endorser of the Helper
Book, to the Presidency, would be a just
cause for the dissolution of the Union. In
such an event those composing the meeting
pledged their lives, their honor and their for
tunes to affect a disunion.
Who Shall be Governor ?
This question is beginning to excite the cu
riosity of the political quid nuns throughout
the State. A Harrisburg correspondent of
the Perry County Democrat, under date of
25th ult., speculates upon this subject thus:
" The question—who will we nominate for
Governor ? is the question with both parties.
.Curtin is the strongest among the opposition ;
' but that may kill him by inducing a combi
nation of all the other candidates against him.
Many good names are mentioned, as well
worthy of adoption at Reading, but in my
judgment there is no man named gaining
more surely and more likely to be the Demo
' cra - tic standard-bearer than old Jake Fry of
Montgomery county—a sturdy old German
farmer from the Trappe, (where rest the ash
es of old Frank Shunk)—intelligent, honest,
and a Democrat unmixed with factions, he
seems to be the man. In the past three years,
whilst most prominent men have been going
crazy about Kansas and the niggers, he has
been seated quietly in his office, with a vigi
lent eye upon the strong box of the people,
compelling overgrown corporations to pay up
their jusCdues, and compelling defaulters to
disgorge the thousands of which they would
rob the people. Is not this a service to the
hard-ridden tax-payers of infinitely more ac
count than frothy quarrels about Kansas ?
" If the people can have an honest Gover
nor—one who will stand between them (as
Jacob Fry has done) and the but too powerful
corporations of the land—who will devote his
energies to the wiping out of a heavy debt
and the lesssening of taxes—and who is at
the same time a conservative Union Demo
crat, if they can get this in the person of Fry,
what better can they want? Now, as in all
past life, he refuses to push himself forward
and leaves his cause with the people. As was
once said of Shunk, " When politicians talk
some other name is mentioned—but when the
people thunder, old JAKE Fay is the man."
TUE LIFE AND DEATH OF A MlSER.—Michael
Baird, who lived near Little York, Pa.. was
a miser. His father left a valuable farm of
500 acres, in the vicinity of York., with some
farming and household articles. Michael
kept a tavern a number of years—married
and raised four children. lie accumulated an
immense estate,which he reserved so tenacious
ly, that he never afforded a dollar fur the edu
cation of his children. He was never known
to lay out one dollar in cash for any article
he might be in need of; he would either do
without it, or find some person who would
barter for somethimg which he could not con
veniently sell for money. He farmed largely,
and kept a large distillery, which he supplied
entirely with his own grain. He kept a team
for the conveyance of his whiskey to Balti
more, where, when he could not sell for mon
ey to suit hint, he bartered for necessaries for
his fa mily and tavern. In this way he amassed
au estate worth 4100,000.
Such was his attachment to money that he
was never known to credit a single dollar to
any man. Upon the best mortgage as secu
rity that could be given he would not lend a
cent. He never vested a dollar in public
funds, neither would he keep the notes of any
bank longer than he could get them changed.
He deposited his specie in a large iron chest,
until it would hold no more. He then pro
vided a strong iron-hooped barrel, which he
also filled. After his death his strong b o xes
yielded $250,000 in gold and silver.
The cause of his death was as remarkable
as the course of his life. A gentleman from
Virginia offered him $l2 a bushel for 110
bushels of cloverseed, but he would not do it
for less than $l3, and they did not agree.—
The seed was afterwards sent to Philadelphia,
where it was sold for $7 per bushel, and
brought in the whole :$550 less than the Vir
ginian had offered for it. On receiving an
account of his sale, he walked through his
farm, went to his distillery, and gave direc
tions to his people ; he went to his wagon
house and hung himself.
INTER-STATE COURTESIES.-COLUMBUS, Ohio,
Jan. 2G.—The members of the Kentucky and
Tennessee Legislature arrived here this after
noon, and were received by a Joint Conven
tion of both 'branches of the State Legislature.
The guests were heartily welcomed iu an ad
dress by Gov. Dennison.
Governor Magoffin, of Kentucky, returned
thanks in the name of the people of Kentucky
for the cordial welcome tendered. He had
expected a warm welcome, but was not pre
pared for such a greeting. He would take
home this welcome to the people of Kentucky,
and tell them that all we have to do to keep
the Government united is to see each other
oftener and know each other better.
Governor illagoffin introduced Col. New
comb, of the Tennessee Legislature, who re
sponded in behalf of that State. He said
that while Congress cannot organize, Ohio,
Tennessee and Kentucky can meet and greet
each other as brethren. Ile eulogized the
Union and the Constitution. The speech was
received with great applause.
After the adjournment of the Convention, a
meeting was extemporized, at which numer
ous speeches were made. The best feeling
and great enthusiasm prevailed.
A "RESPECTABLE SCOUNDREL."—In an item
under this caption, the Johnstown _Echo gives
the particulars of the robbery of a mercantile
firm of that place by a fast young man names!.
Stephen G. Evans. He was arrested while on
a wedding tour to Philadelphia. It is not
known to what extent he carried his thefts,
as he was a very, fast young man, but the
amount of nineteen hundred dollars was traced
to him—thirteen of which he was forced to
disgorge, and his note taken for the balance,
when he was permitted to depart. Steve, as
be was called, played the " respectable" so
well, and assumed so many winning ways,
as to enable him to captivate and marry one
of the gayest of the gay belles of Johnstown
—the daughter of a most worthy and respec
table citizen. The gay young buck was too
" respectably" connected, and the amount
stolen was too large, to justify a prosecution.
It is only when a wretched, destitute urchin
purloins a small sum, or when some poor man
or woman steals a ham for a famished fami
ly, that a prosecution and punishment is
deemed necessary. How differently society
regards rogues in ruffles and rogues in rags!
____
HORRIBLE CASE OF FROST BITE.—The Pa
tient's Legs Both Amputated.—The Somerset
(Md.) Union, learns from a reliable source,
that a boy, at Rewastico Mills, near Quantico,
has recently had his lower limbs so badly
frost bitten, that his feet mortified and slough
ing off at the oriole joints, merely hanging on
by the tendons. The case being brought to
the notice of Drs. Ker and Siemens, they, as
sisted by Drs. C. E. Rider and E. Fowler,
amputated both legs just below the knees—
the first on the Bth and the other on the 16th
ult. The lad bore the operation with great
fortitude—is doing remarkably well—and
gives every indication of a speedy recovery.
The injury was sustained in Queen Anne's
county, in December last.
MORE EXPULSIONS FROM THE SOUTH—TUE
EFFECT or GUANO.—The Carlisle (Pa.) Her
ald, says: Many of our readers are aware
that several families, formerly living in the
lower part of the county, have recently pur
chased land in one of the counties of Virgin
ia where they have settled in the peaceful
prosecution of their business. One of these
men, Mr. Jacob Dorsheimer, from Mechan
icsburg, a few weeks ago was hauling home
a load of guano ; while driving along one of
the barrels was stove in the wagon, and a
portion of the guano was strewn along the
road. This was seen by some puddin g -head,
who wisely imagined, from its dark color,
that it was powder, and immediately gave
the alarm that Dorsheimer was hauling home
powder, with the .design of furnishing the
slaves with ammunition for an insurrection.
A committee waited on Mr. Dorsheimer,
who offered his explanations, and showed
them the guano. The committee, after exam
ination, reported that it looked like guano, it
smelt like guano, it tasted like guano, and
that in short it was guano, and exculpated
Mr. Dorsheimer from any insurrectionary de
sign ; notwithstanding the report spread, and
finally a meeting was held, and notice given
to Dorsheimer and all the Cumberland coun
ty men, to leave the State in twelve days.—
Mr. D. has already returned to Mechanics
burg; whether or not the others will be per
mitted to remain is uncertain.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—The special com
mittee of the Senate to investigate the charges
of newspaper patrontage, was organized to
day. Su bpacemas fur illressrs. Wendell and
Appleton have been issued, but the latter
gentleman is absent in Maine.
