THB KBIT PRE9IDEKOT, Sentiments or, the Democratic .Press, From the Jirie Ohtarver. Mlon. James , Buchanan. \\ o look, with pride and pleasure upon the position occupied by this truly favorite huh uf pemisylvania. lu ail the relations in which it has been our good fortune to ob serve his course of duty to his country, we have seen.il' iiiarked with tokens of unflinch ing'fidelity. When, during the war with Great Britain, the thunders of a foreign in vader were approaching our shores, at the critical moment'>Vh.en. Baltimore was threat ened with annihilation, though he possessetl the means to have hired substitutes, and avoid the danger and fatigue'of a campaign, still'we behold him' enter the list of defend ers of his country; Aiul how did lie entorf Not as a general, whose most appropriate place lias of lute bcen'decided to be in the rear and out of danger, and who enjoys the fame and military honor's, which are in fact won by his suldiers; t but us a volunteer, he entered the ranks with a musket tin his shoulder, sharing the fatigues and accepting the rewards allotted to a common soldier— the consciousness of having done his duty to‘ his country. Baltimore yet stands, a lovely city upon the coast, for she could never be taken when such hearts defended her. In the Senate-of the United States, per haps a more severe ordeal was never ullot ■ ted toman than fell to the portion of James Buchanan. Hp stood there firm as aTuck, while insanity and.hard cider deluged the country. .The truths he uttered during that time, now stand out almost, as prophecies, many already fulfiled, and many more in a ' rapid course of fulfilment. But fur the time nothing could prevail, and no less could have been expected-thun that James Bucha : udn, the leading champion of democratic doctrines, smarting beneath a defeat such as was then dealt out to us, seeing his native state numbered among those who were pass ing'seeming condemnation upon his course, should have evinced at least some symptoms of exasperation. Fur different.was the fact. Instructed by the representatives to vole fur certaih measures,.we find him, while ex pressing the conviction that Ilia conaiituents. were still obeying their instruc tions with a high-suiild fidelity, whichfnot, ' Only sefVed to fikiwthe windshis.friends ,'indetlibly their confidence .in his rectitudi> of heart,, tint also disarmed his opponents or the last poisoned shaft which malice or po litical ambition dared to invert. Tlvcn.came, once muce, the great,.the gi ant contest,' for a hydra-headed bank—a "Fiscal Agent” and a “Fiscal Corporation.” liven the whigs of Pennsylvania had not dared to.instruct him to favor such a meas ure, and we find him entering the arena and Mattering opposition to the fight and left, until the friends of those measures them selves-became distrustful of their utility, and it hardly needed a’veto to lay them in the grave bf oblivion, 'Usually triumphant was his masterly course in favor of the dig nity and independen'ce_of the country, when assurance* demailded the surrender of McLeod, though charged with the nefar our crimes of arson and murder. When. Daniel Webster, with a cl inging sycophan cy,sought to yield thatentirequesiioninto the hands of the British ministry, and to send by her rights, James Buchanan, fittest for the great occasion, was the first mam to step forward to the rescue of our national escutch eon and national honor. In all, tlie great measures, Pennsylvania’s favorite sun stood in the foremost rankv'ancl sustained the true policy of his country, tlrough surrounded by an intolerant opposi tion, boastful and vaunting of their mighty majority. But how changed now the aspect. The people have seen that those repining demagogues, who led them astray with the log cabin paraphernalia, though exceeding fit instruments to raise a tempest, are not the pilots to steer the ship of state through it to a haven of safety. Mr. Buchanan re turns,to Washington with .the din of appro bation sounding to his .cars, as rung upon almost every ballot box'in tire Union, and it would be hard to.conceivc of a greater re ward ato patriotic heart, fyr the toils and cares of the responsible position ■he has maintained. From the Globe of Thursday. CONGRESSIONAL ANALYSIS, SENATE. The discussion in the Senate on the new , Exchequer scheme to-day, was highly inter esting. The position which we are inclined to believe the Democratic party will take jn relation to the proposed Administration measure of finance, was most .distinctly pointed out by Mr. Buchanan & Mr. Cal *oun. Mr. Buchanan opened the debate *>a the proposition of Mr. Tallmadge to re fer the bill fijr the establishment of the Ex chequer, and the Cabinet exposition which accompanied it, to a select committee. Mr. TT,indicated a wish that all expression of o pinvon touching this fully .matured measure <if<tbe Administration should be waved for the present, although developed in its minu test lineaments in the bill from the re, and illuminated with the full and lung studied argument with which it was usher ed into Congress by the Cabinet exposition It was thought by the Democratic Senators, due to an Executive measure of such grave import—so elaborately prepared, and so c laborately argued, in advance,*by its auth ors—to meet it as'prescnted “by .them, be fore submitting it to the .crucible of a com mittee, l» .which it might undergo a change, making it altogether different from that de signed by.its originators. In the meantime, if the scheme had been sunk, for weeks to come, in the' oblivion of-a committee, the public might have been.left to infer. (bat the busy scatlerers of rumors were right tn the •■inference that the silence of,all sides in re gJTril to itpwas to be taken as a sort of. uni ‘ -iprsaT consent to its adoption. , Under,these impressions, we doubt not,- . Messrs. Buchanan and Calhoun felt- them* delves called on to state, without any/un • kind feelings or intentions pijvimls thp Ex ecutive submitting it, their objections to the plan proposed. - - • --• Mr. Buchanan’s speech was an able, coin prehensive, impartial, generalized, review of the whale subject brought np by the new jnupoailion. He stated fbe.objections which fbrbaife hiin and those who .acted with him from embracing any. of the extraordinary features engrafted uU the eiinj)l)s substratum of the Independent Treasury. Ho showed that the whole superstructure was a Govern ment Bank of •immense.und irresfSlible teu dencies-.to mischief, and milking absolute the identification of the political; and mon eyed powers of the country—d perfect blen ding of Bank and State. Mr. Calhoun, in a very brief and clear staiunieiit, touched on some important ad missions of the. Cabinet exposition, milita ting against the measure, itself, and the whole system-of .banking as associated with Governments He sustained'Mr. Buchanan in all his positions, and declared.resolutely the purpose to stand firmly on the ground and principles on which the Democracy had planted itself in the renewed struggle be tween it and its old antagonist in'our Gov ernment, .-,-Mr. Tallmadge -having withdrawn from the Senate, on account of indisposition, Mr. Hives undertook to reply in behalf of Mr. T. and for himself, ;to the views delivered by Messrs. Buchanan and Calhoun. Mr. Uives seemed to taktroftelicc that the Senators who hud commented' on the great measure proposed by the , Administration, hud not waited until it had undergone the alterations which he did not hesitate to shy it wouldTeceive from the hands of .Mr.T., who concurred with him in so many points of political faith,' modes of thinking & feel ing. lle wcnton to say. _ that he did riot doubt that every thing contained in the pro posed plan, which made it obnoxious to the charge of'being a Government Bank, would be lopped oft', if Mr. Tallmadge (the mover of the committee, and therefore likely to be" its head) could have ids way. 'Mr. gives, for himself, expressly disclaimed all favor for the exchange and discount operations proposed for the Exchequer. He pronoun ced against the provision authorizing the Treasury lo issue paper to three times life amount of specie on hand, and declared lie would assent to .no issue of notes which the Goyernment.had not the gold and silver to redeem, dollar lor dollar. He inveighed a-, gainst the Independent Treusui-y, as con demned by the people—proclaimed a Na tional Bank as now an impossibility—gave up Ids half-way house—the State bankde jmsite system—as altogether impracticable, but still declared’, himself one ol .those who abjured.tha-“<faMOl/iing,pe(rty,’ y and. inti mated aii.iiitcritiun-to make something out of the Administration scheme which would redeem the ctuiiitr.y' from the present deplo rable state, which he depicted as one which demanded relief froin Government. . . • From the.aspect which-filings assumed to day in the Senate, «we infer that the two well-yoked €onscrvatives ; who look upon themselves as the make-weights who have hitherto, at will, played at seesaw upon the two great parties, have at length resolved to balance atlidrs, and take repose theiriselvcs, arid give it to the country. The cabinet plan is knocked in the head—Mr. Clay’s plan is knocked in the head—and now the counlry is to-look to Messrs.' Rives and Tallmadge for its preservation; ‘‘Large streams from little fountains flow, Tall oaksTrorfl little acorns grow. - - . We had thought this an era of great men —but, alack! alack! it seems that it is tu be the reign of the Pigmies. Mr, Mangdm has the flour for tp-morrow. We suppose that his remarks will indicate the course of the Whigs proper—the friends of Mr. Clay. Mr. Clay sat silent to-day. Although Mr. Rives drew many flattering earnests from forbearance in that quarter, contrasting with it the hostility of the Dem ocrats, we hardly think Mr. C. will enlist under his banner. TUE EXCHEQUER. From tlie indications in the Senate to-day, (Thursday) we,consider the prospect of tlie exchequer scheme, in apy form, entirely forlorn. Mr. Mangum, in bis spcecii to day, de nounced every aspect of the measure'; and, although he protested that he spoke only for himself as an individual member, yet he de clared, confidently, that he did nut believe that it would receive the support of a solita ry member. Some few, he said, might be' inclined to favor it, but it was so entirely destitute of support in the 'general opinion, that he believed not one would be found, to vote for When Mr. Mr sat down, no member arose to gainsay the assertion thus made. Not one evinced a disposition to re ply, even to vindicate a Solitary feature of the project. And after the severe animad version made upon every part of it, compre hending a sweeping condemnation, at the close, of the motives of ’ the projectors, ,we must infer that it is not to find oue advocate in. the Senate, unless the speech of Mr. Rives and the proposition of Mr. Tallmadge to refer the subject to a committee, may be construed .into support. The President, therefore, will content himself, we presume, with the laws regula ting the' Treasury, as established at the foundation of the Government. They es tablish an unguarded independent Treasu ry', which will require great circumspection ,aml energy and skill in those concerned in the management. The want of the late law, so eagerly repealed because it rendered all other li gisiatiun on the subject unnecessary, will be felt at every moment by those who administer the finances, and we fear the public, too, will be found a loser in the end by the repeal. l - MCushaniVs hove. Incidents of life occurring from clay to clay, anti, -we suspect, some not altogether diltesled.ofjictian, are nut unfrequcntly'to be met with in the prints, in which they are heralded as instances of the all absorbing and ever enduring affection which ; burns with eternal brightness m the bosum of wives, mo.hers and sisters.' But who has ever be fore scen.in the columns of our public jour oals, a record exhibiting to the world eqiiullyjhtense and nut less abiding dcVo tion of husbands, fathers, and brothers?— Such records ai,e rare indeed—nutas we be lieve, that the latter instances are less fret quent than the. former, but'because there is in them less to impress. the amiable feelings of. .our. nature, and excite that peculiar in terest which sur'rbunda every thing hallowed hy_-female.virtue or heroism". ‘ ■ _f he Lowell Journal. relates a. case in point, which, through succeeding-years hath failed lu'interest Ihepen of the, chronicler. In, a groye yartl.-situated in a’ w;il.d rural place, about a mile fruin a little', vill.-ve in that vicinity,'stands a very n at-granite invnonipnt- It iVthe only monument in tha yard; and stands by itself, over a solitary grave, apart from nil oilier grSyes. The history (if tha,t monument is interesting and nieluhcluily in the extreme. ". It-marks the spot where lies buried the young wife qf one of the young men.of the village. .He was married a few years since to one who seemed in every way calculated .to render him hap py. At that time the prospects of the young couple bid fair fur a lung life of happiness and usefulness. In a year or two after their marriage, the small pox broke out and raged in the neighborhood. The young wife was attacked with this dreadful disease, and be came its victim. ‘ ■ The fears of the community prevented her friends from attending her during her sickness. Her husband, lied physician,' and one or two attendants were the only persons who were present to smooth down her dying pillow. The same fears took away the ac customed forms of a Christian burial. A spot for her grave was pointed out, in the grave-yard, remote from other graves, by the proper authorities,'and at the dark - hour of night, with none present but the husband, the physician, and one or two fearless friends, the burial took place. There was no lung train of kindred to witness the cere mony; the alilicted husband was the only relative, who at the burial, ventured to shed the last tear over the grave of the loved and the departed. ’ „ Months rolled on, and black, melancholy still brooded over the young,man but soon loosened its hold, somewhat. Sorrow still remained, but it was Boom mingled with resignation. He resumed his accustomed occupation, and seemed to forget the past, The past was not forgotten, however, nor the object, which the past had endeared to him. The grave of his wife was solitary and alone. Over that grave he resolved to erect a monument, to her memory. That monument, although a blacksmith by trade, he chose to plan and work with his . own hands. He procured the'rough blocks of granite and commenced his pleasing task.— livery leisure hour he could obtain was spent on his favbrite work, other hand planned, and. no ether hand, than his own, executed. Months after months* alotie and unaided with no knpwlcdge-of. the art except wha? natu're had taught him, sometimes at noon day aryl • whch .others" 1 had left their tasks, lie toij'ed on, until his work was; completed.. •THfaT..u\oau,TOe!Jt, which, as a specimen of art,, is exceedingly line, and. w ould be an ornament even in Mount Auburn, now marks out the gravbjrf his wife. While it serves to call to mind the niemory of the dead,, it speaks also of tile constancy and purity of affections .which death and lime could nut destroy. " Experience of ft JVSccfynnic. Two young men, both of whom were me chanics, were married about the same time, and entered life with apparently equal- pros pects, except that one was rather given to extravagance and fashion, while the .other was mure prudent and frugal.' The wife of the latter, however, being of a different turn from her husband, became-uneasy because the former, without any superior advantages, made mure, show than he' did, and had many more fine things. She told her hus band that his income must be as great as (he other’s, and. that she knew they were able to appe,itr'‘ns,well as their neighbor. “1 want to do ns other people do,” was her all conquering argument. Her husband yielded again and again to her entreaties, although professing that he was not able. At length his more showy neighbor failed 1 —And seeing their line things sold ..under the hammer of the auctioneer, his wife, who was far from being destitute of good feelings, began to mistrust whether by imitating them and “doing ns other folks do,” they might not meet with a similar fate. She inquired of her husband how his affairs stood. He told her that his expenses had exceeded his income, but he hoped to get through and pay what he owed. Before long, he was sued for.-his debts.; — Then his wile, was in panics! She knew that his misfmtune was chargeable to her folly, although he never reproached her, uni cast any unkind reflections. Disturbed with conflicting emotions, she tried to, plan, some way to get along-in this terrible difficulty 1 But finding,all her endeavors fruitless, she said to her husbandTvilh unfeigned distress “what shall we do? What cun we do?” “Do?” he calmly replied, “wcniust do as •otheTfolks do, have bur fine things sold un der .the hammer!” This was enough for her. She had been the, beginning and ending of this common folly, and.she was satisfied. From that time he hud no trouble to persuade her to be fru gal and prudent. They were both agreed in pursuing the same course. And it is almost useless to say that their prosperity was in proportion to their wisdom and prudence.— Oxford Mercury. , . THE HOME SQUADRON.

Wash ington Correspondent of the Ncw'York Ex press, under date of Saturday.week, says:— “Thejdelegalions of Indians froth the Green Bay country were to-day presented to the President of the United States. They were accompanied by the Stcr. tary of War and their interpreter. The Indians came here to represent the interests of their tribe, and if possible to make some new regulation with the Government which they regarded as more advantageous to themselves. A formal and interesting talk was held with the I’icsldent, in which brief addresses were made and responses given. A chief of the I’ottawaUomics expressed a desire to change on the part.of the tribe, certain utensils.al lowed undfcr a former treaty, and mainly of iron, for powder and ball. The President in reply, persuaded him that there were things more important than munitions of war to the Indians, and the main one he ar gued with great simplicity, earnestness and effect, was that of education.- Instead of spending (Im balance due from the Govern ment to the tribe in the means of warfare, the President told the Chief of the benefits and blessings of an education to their chil dren. . The Indian acknowledged the truth of what, was said, promised to receive the advice given in good faith, and to apply the fund due to the establishment of schools a mong the tribe. “Father,” said he, first ta king all present by the hand, “me thank you, and as long as rivers shall flow, and the grass be green, we hope to be at peace with, you.” The President reciprocated the sentiment and exhorted the Indian to leave off"his hun ting, to cultivate the earth, and to be wise and industrious. The. meeting continued for about an hour,-and was of the must in teresting character. We accidentally heard ofadroll anecdote yesterdy, which we believe is quite new and original. - Dispensing with all premising rigmaroles, it is only necessary to state at once, that Colonel Stentor was at one time a legislator in a certain legislative hall. He had been .an 1 till lab agent- among' tho Usages,'and I whenever, lie took the floor, he Was exec;ed of buff,dues,',-wolves, p'amjidrs, bears, foxes, .and- all other ferheious animals. In this Yiwy.his-guL to he quite a ii ton-him self, and his opponents -all shrank in terror from his roar. But on one occasion a young lawyer, new upon the fiuor, but who knew the roar ing Colonel'uf old, gut up and replied to him as follows; “Mr. Speaker, docs the gentleman imagine he. is going to frighten us-down here w ith a menagerie of wild beasts? "Thouginrih gen tleman is so .anxious to le\ us know That he was born in the woods, can he assert that he was never scared by an owl?

' ~ It is stated in the Wilkesbarre Farmer and Democrat that a serious catastrophe pc curred last week at the coal mine, of George Sivelly at Hanover, near that place. Sev eral miners were present in a house occupied by a family near the mouth of the mine, in which two kegs of powder were deposited.. Some fracas occurred .amongst the men, when, cither by accident or design, fire was .communicated to the powder.

It commenced on Monday and was to continue three days. The ques-' tioTT is whether a constitution shall be a-- duptcd.and a State.government established, or whether Rhudp island shall remain as it has always been, a colony under a' Uiitish charter. The question-fur adoption comes up in a somewhat novel manner, and will hereafter no doubt be the occasion of novel discussion, and engage the.skill of the con stitutional lawyers in settling it properly.— The Legislature being always composed of of freeholders-—none ’others being allowed-- to vote or hold opce in the tcolony—has-al ways refused to call -a, convention for the' purpose of funning a constitution and estab- government. The people at last resorted to their own paruniount (authority and called oh themselves, which was regu larly adopted in convention, to which dele gates haii been sept in the usual manner.— It is supposed -by some (hat. the present pub lic authorities «[!ll refuse-to -recognize the new constitution,'and contest its validity, cven'if a imtjiu ity bhould declare in.favor of it. The adoption of the constitution is. not to depend upon a majority of the votes ac tually given-furor against it, but a .itiigori ’ty of all tlfc.adult male citizens in thtf State, AN OWL STORY, " EXPLOSION. as ascertained-by tho census which lias just been taken,' must y6te in favor of it in or der (o’secure its adoption; the interesting question will arise, when are the people jus tified in acting for themselves? The pre sent aspect of things in that State now is revolutionary, but-nf a revolution, conceived, ami carried out with all the forms of a legal proceeding. There'was no other mode by which the majority in that Statu could obtain the right which every citizen ought to have* that of an equal voice itr questions of public policy; The whole theory of democratic government is nothing mure'than the recog nition of this principle—a principle.which, is the foundation for our national, ns well as each of the State constitutions except Uhode Island. As the people of-this little Stale have never formerly adopted a constitution for themselves, they contend they have' the right to adopt one now, and to choose their own' time and mode of doing it. —Public Ledger. We copy what follows~from the Tele scope, of the. 17th ult., a paper published at, Sandersville, Washington county, Georgia. “MURDER WILL OUT.” “About four years ago, a strolling organ player came to this town, and remained lor some lime, during .which time he became acquainted with vuiiouy, persons in different parts of the county, and would frequently go to a house in a neighborhood and remain a week or ten days, following up his.profcs sion of‘organ grinding,’and from his social and liberal character soon became a favorite ajnong ..the: country people. In the mean time it was ascertained that he liad a con siderable amount'of money, in gold and sil ver. At Lung’s Bridge, in this county, he became acquainted nun a mm, whose name we suppress, us the evidence against him is altugeilier circunist.,iili.il, but quite conclu sive in its character, ibis individual in duced the organ player frequently to ac company him home to play lor his children, and on one uccasiuii.he look him to his liou?e to stay all. night, since which time he has never been seen. The people in the upper part of this-county, and a part of Hancock, became much excited on the subject of the I sudden disappearance of. the sirangei ; B bul ti.al • f'C-yKfiTnce'against die suppdped nipi-dcrer,- from souie cause or,other be was suffered to. •remove to Alabama, willtpul the matter be ing investigated.-, ■ ■ , • ". A short, time since,- the" brother of (he supposed, assassin Was arrested and cum mill,ed to the jail of Hancock county, as a vagrant, and being a troublesome lellow, and not. notorious lor his ? honesty, the cm-, | zens were zealous in their efforts to obtain i evidence sufficient tu.convict-hiin, and thus I rid themselves of one whom' they consider |ed to be of bad character. During their ; investigations, various articles of evidence canie to light touching the murder of the or gan player, and the citizens proceeded.ail {once lu bring a number of the connexions ol | the supposed murdeier, before an examin jiug court, the result of which was that the organ player was known logo to the house ol the borlher of the ’prisoner on a certain flight, to slay all night, that he was sc.en by a young woman in the house to go up slabs to bed.. The wife of the murderer in a day or two afterw-aids became insane, her moth er hearing of the. niisteiious situation, she \vas confident that something serious had occurred to cause it, and accordingly let! no means untried to ascertain the ti tie cause of this sudden mental derangement of her daughter. After looking about the house fur some time, and making various wonders as to what could be the cause, the daughter' all at once exclaimed, “mother 1 dare not tell what is the matter, or I would,” and pointing up to the 101 l said, “have you no dyes —can’t you see for yourself ?” The old lady turning her attention to this part of the house, saw at once the cause ol her daughter’s trouble —a murder had been committed. There she saw plaihly signs of blood where rtdjad dnipped from the upper Hour, and upon going up st;ii'rs found a.gieat deal more blood. It appears that the indi viduals knowing these circumstances, have kept them secret up to the present time, partly from ■ fear and partly from a regard fur family connexions. A very strong cir cumstance against The supposed “murderer, was that at about the time of the disappear ance of the organ player, he was seen to have a large amount,of specie, and a certificate of deposite on one of the-banks of-Agusta, and- the organ-player-wasTtnown to have a large amount of specie apd a certificate on an Augusta, Bank. ' Evidence enough, if we have heard the truth, has been obtained, to condemn the accused, and the. citizens in the neighborhood who are acquainted with the circumstances, have no doubt but that the organ player was murdered and robbed.
