To tie Democratic Freemen of tUe City and County of Lancaster. In accordance with the resolution of the County Com mittee, adopted oh Wednesday last, you are requested to assemble in the WYeral Wards of She City, and Boroughs and Townships of the County, on Saturday the 7th of next, then and there to elect not lea* than three nor more than fire delegates to represent each District In a general County Convention to be held on Wednesday the lira or February sex*, at 11 o’clock A. M.. at tho Hotel of Eman uel Shober, in the City of Lancaster, for the purpose of electing six delegates to represent the Democracy of the County of Lancaster in the Annual State Convention, to be held at Harrisburg, on Monday the 2nd day of March next The several Ward, Borough and Township Commit tees are requested to glTe early notice, In their • Districts, of the time and place of meeting for the elec'h'n of delegates. In accordance with the established usage of the party the several Districts will each nominate one person to serve on the County Committee for the ensuing political year, and also nominate their Ward, Borough and Township Committees, and place their names on their respective •redentials to the ensuing County Convention. , f By order of the County Committee, H. B. 3WARR, CbAlrman. Lancaster, January 2uth, 1867. The Mayoralty. Candidates for the post of Chief Magistrate of this City seen! to be multiplying, aod the voters will, from present appearances, have plenty of names before them from which to make a selection. First, we have the present honest and in corruptible incumbent of the office. Mayor Ziuherman, nominated by the Democratic party for re-electiou. He has conducted himself with great propriety during the twelve months he has been in office, and we can see no substantial reason why he should not be retained for another term. The good people of the city of Lancaster have, in Mayor Zim merman, aD honest man and a trust worthy Chief Magistrate. They might go farther and fare worse. Next, we have Henry M. White, nomina ted by the Know-Nothing party. He is a olever kind of a man, but, we opine, would be totally out of* place at the,head of the City Government. Then we have ex-Sheriff Jacob Huber, who offer himself as a volunteer candidate. Ue also is a very clever man iu his own way, but we do not suppose him to possess the necessa ry qualifications for that particular office, however pleasant and agreeable he is a neigh bor and a gentleman. And lastly, our excellent friend, Thomas H, Buurowbb, Esq., has been induced, through the solicitation of a number of citizens of all ; parties, to offer himself as a candidate. ' Mr. B. has the necessary intelligence and qualifi- • cations to make a capital Mayor, and were ; he the nominee of the Democratic party we ; could support him with much pleasure. But coming out as ho does in opposition to the , party to which lie professes to belong, he can : have no claims upon the Democracy, and it is : scarcely within the range of possibility that he has any chance of an election. We, therefore, calculate that ‘'old Whitey” w;ill distance all competitors in tho race for the Mayoralty—especially will this be the case if our democratic friends all do their du ty on Tuesday next, as we suppose they are generally averse to introducing the Camefoni an system into our Municipal election. Ever since the caucus nomination for Mayor was broken through some years ago, the finan ces of the city had become more aod more in volved, in consequence of the reckless and ex travagant system of expenditures which ob tained, until the induction of Mayor Zimmer man. Since he has been in office, a better state of things has been brought about—prop er economy has been used—and a return to the good old system of doing things now pre vails. . If the tax payers wish these reforms oarried out they will “ let well enough alone” and re-elect the present officer, whose charac ter for honesty and integrity is above suspic ion, and whose sole aim has been to econo mise and curtail the expenses of the corpora* tion. No State Treasurer Elected Yesterday a week ago being the day fixed by law for the election of State Treasurer, in oonsequence of tlje absence of many of the members of the Legislature, and their inabil ity to reach' Harrisburg, the roads being blockaded by the snow-storm, but few were present, and no election was had. The act of ? 1848 provides: “The term of the State Treas urer shall commence on the first Monday of May next succeeding his election, and shall continue for one year, or until his successor shall be duly qualified.” And the act 0f'1839 (the first under the preseut Constitution) pro vides: “In case no State Treasurer is elected at the time fixed by law, the Treasurer for the time being, shall hold the office until a successor is appointed according to the pro visons of this act; and the bond given by the Treasurer and his securities shall be held valid and binding - so long as he continues in office/’ Under these provisions of the law, we presume the present incumbent, Col. Magraw, will hold over a year, unless a special act or reso lution is passed by the present Legislature, fixing a day for holding the election. There is another provision in the law to the effect that when a vacancy in the office of State Treasurer shall happen from the death of the inoumbent, the Chief Clerk then in the office shall become the acting Treasurer, and shall continue to do the duties thereof (after giving bond and the requisite security) until another ie elected by the Legislature. We are aware that tho sixth section of arti cle sixth of the Constitution provides, that “A State Treasurer shall be elected annually by a joint vote of both branches of the Legis lature”;—but, we apprehend, the Constitution never contemplated an interregnum in the office, and in the absence of any Constitutional provision to meet a case similar to the present, the Legislatures of 1839 ami 1848 wisely •applied the omission. We incline to the opinion, therefore, that if the present Legis lature fails to elect a State Treasurer, Col. Magrah- will continue to hold the office until the Legislature of 1858 shall elect a successor. I®- We direct attention, to the advertise ment, in another column, for a partner in the Milling and Distilling business. This fur nishes a rare chance for a man with capital to engage in a profitable business. The late snow storm was very severe in Baltimore. On a level the snow was aboat two feet deep—but in some places the drifts were from six to ten feet deep. The streets for several days were impassable for vehioles. The Btorm was still more severe north and east iof this point. There has been nothing equaling it in severity for many years. A New Park in Philadelphia.— The Phil adelphians talk of converting the Sedgely park property, lying between the city property at Lemon Hill, and the Spring Garden Water Works, into a publio park. It embraces about one hundred aores. Two gentlemen have already given $lO,OOO each, and various •urns, varying from $5,000 to $5OO, have been pledged to the movement. Itt» We invite attention to the advertise ment of H. A. Sanders, Cincinnati, in'another eoltunn. The Record Corrected. The Independent Whig of this City, the . organ par pxopJlpnce of the Blaok Republican party of Lancaster county, steps forward j gallantly in defence of the three traitors to ! the Dem>>craric party who by their votes ; secured the election of Gen. Cameron to the tl. S. Senate —and attempts to justify their ■ course by publishing the letter of Mr. Buch anan to the Democratic members of the , Legislature, n 1845. after Cameron’s former election to the Senate by a similar treachery on the part of a few recreant Democrats.' At that time, it will be recollected that Hon. George W. Woodward was the oaueu« nomi nee of the Democratic party, but was defeated precisely in the same.way that Col- John W. Forney has \eeu. The Democratic members, smarting under the deep wrong committed against the customs and usages of the party, united in a letter to Mr. Buchanan. denunei /at»ry of Gen. Cameron, and asking him also to denounce the act and the actors in the treach ery. Mr. Buchanan had then become Secre tary of State. He was a member of President Polk’s Cabinet, and as such he considered that it'would be improper for him (using his uwii language) “to criticise or condemn the Legislature of a sovereign State, for electing whom they pleased to the Senate of the United States. Jealousy of Federal interference and Federal influence in State elections, ever has been, and I trust ever may be, a prevailing sentiment throughout the Democratic party; , and if, iu the new official position which I now hold, I were to pass sentence against > those Democratic members who voted for ; another Democrat, instead of the caucus nom inee, I might justly be asked, ‘who made me a ruler or a judge’ iu this matter. They are responsible to the sovereign people of their respective districts and counties, and in the bands of their constituents they shall be left, so far as I am concerned. Besides, I might add, that any interference on my part in this delicate question, would inevitably tend : further to distract and divide the Democratic party of Pennsylvania, at a moment when I am most anxious it should be united in sup porting the National and State administra tions.” In the same letter, from which the above extract is taken, Mr. Buchanan took strong ; and decided groknd in favor of Legislative ' caucuses, and the binding effect they should have on every member of the party. He said that he “had uniformly expressed my [his] sentiments jin favor of such caucuses; and had even urged-many friends to exert their influ ence with the Democratic members to induce them to attend the late caucus,” at which Judge Woodward was nominated. And j further, that he was “firmly convinced that this is the best mode which experience has ever discovered of preventing individual ; preferences for men from distracting and di- , viding the party, and thus endangering the triumph of tho great principles of Democracy.” Our readers will thus perceive, at a glance, the difference between the election of Gen. Cameron in 1845 and his election in 1857 i although brought about both times by the ; open and unblushing treachery of professing ; Democratic members. But 'there is another i still more striking difference, which is this: | In 1845 Gen. Cameron, although always fishy and uncertain as a politician, was nevertheless considered by many as a member of theDem [ ocratic party. He had supported the elections I of Governor Siiunk and President Polk in ; the previous contest, and was sustained by a large body of friends who thought him sincere. But the ease is different now. Whatever may have been Gen. Cameron's political antece dents, it is notorious that for the last three years he has been known and recognized as one of the principal leaders of the opposition to the Democratic party. In 1854 he attached himself to the Know-Nothings, opposed the re-election of Governor Bigler, and was their candidate for the U. S. Senate at the ensuing session of the Legislature. In 1856, he became a Black Republican and was one ot the elec tors on the Fremont ticket—consequently he was entirely out of the pale of the Democratic i party, as he had been for more two years pre viously, and no honest Democrat, with these facts staring him in the face, co.uld any longer support him. The Independent Whig will therefore fail in its efforts to prove that Gen. Cameron oc cupies the same now that he did twelve years ago. Then he waHa sort of a Democrat, to say the least—noyv he is an open and avowed member of Republican Know-Nothing party, and was one of their electoral candidates, at the recent Presidential election. If he ever was a sincere Democrat, which we very much doubt, he has, Judas like, betrayed the confidence reposed in him, and, like that arch-traitor, has forever forfeited all place with his former associates of the Democratic faith. He now be longs to the same party with Penn, and Stevens, and Wilmot, and Seward, and Hale, and Burlingame, and the whole host of Abolitionists and Disunionists of the North, and any attempt tu justify the treachery of those professing Democrats, Lebo, Manear and Wagonseller, who voted for him two weeks ago, is simply ridiculous and absurd. Wilmot was also a Democrat in years gone by, but no sane man will contend that he still adheres to that faith—just so with Gen. Cameron. They are now cheek by jowl as leaders in the Blaek Republican Know-Nothing party, and there we arc willing they shall remain for all time to come. The Bolter* from the Late Caucus We observe in the Pittsburg Union, a de fence, as they call a Protest, made by the bolters themselves from the late Democratic Senatorial Caucus, for their notorious viola tion of the usages of the Democratic party.— And what think you, gentle reader, is the cause assigned for this gross dereliction of duty? It is, that Mr. Buchanan, in answer I to numerous letters from members of the Legislature, expressed a preference for Col. I Forney, though speaking in the kindest terms |of all the other Democratic candidates! Had ; he not a right to do this? Was it not his duty |to do it? Had not a President elected by the : Democracy of Pennsylvania a right to express his preference for the election of a confidential ; friend as Senator who possessed the necessary J industry, energy and ability to defend the measures of his administration on the floor of : the Senate? Other Presidents have done the ■ same thing without objeotion. The eloquent | and talented Buckaliw, and the patriotic and I Bound-judging Robbins, real com | petitors of Col. Forney, cheerfully admitted | this and acted accordingly. Why did not ; Gen. Foster pursue the same course? Aye, ; there's the rub. He doubtless expected to be | elected, not by the Democratic members with • whom he had refused to go into caucus—this ■ being impossible—but by keeping in reserve i his little corps of bolters and awaiting the j fate of his personal friend Gen. Cameron. — ! Does any person believe, that if Gen. Foster ! could have foreseen Cameron’s election, he ; would have bolted the caucus? That he | would not have done so, is evident from the j fact that when this event had become certain, j be attempted, in the face of the Convention, ! to change his position and vote for Col. Forney | —Executive dictation to the contrary notwith | standing! \ We could s&y muoE more on this subject; but refrain for the present Corrupt Legislation It appears that in Illinois, the people suffer from the rank corruption of their Legislators as well as in Pennsylvania. The following ex cellent article we copy from the Chicago Times of the 17th inst., merely remarking that the scathing rebuke administered would suit the meridian of Harrisburg quite as well as that of Washington and Springfield. In truth, the capital of our own State, in consequence of the gamblers, paid borers and'eorrupt scoun drels who infest it every winter, has become a synonime for all that is mean and infamous in legislation and morality. The 7V/n«says: “ It ha« become a matter of serious alarm to witness the eagerness with which thread bare )>■ Utician* seek official position and the amour-* rJ money annually expended in the disgraceful squabble for office, the legitimate emolument** of which are comparatively noth ing. The enquiry naturally arises, why is this ? Let facts speak. Colt wants an exren sion of his pistol patent, and 10, all Congress is in arms. Collins requires a donation fur his line of steamers, and the legislators of the country are seized with a mania for Europe. Railroad corporations obtain grants, and gambling brokers and briefless attorneys be come wealthy landed proprietors. Let us come home. A mammoth corporation in our own State asks a charter and grant of land ; the paid representative of our people quits hi* seat in Congress, and at the behest of the gold God, squanders time and money in re ducing to nearly one-half the amount the company offered to pay the State for privileges granted. When we see these things, and find in our own county men of inferior capacity elected to office by the votes of corporate bod ies solely from the fact that they can “6e used,” and then whitewashed by reporters as being “too well known for ability and integrity to require comment,” we unsophisticated out siders naturally ask, why is this so ? Why is it that obscure, briefless, third-rate attorneys, upon being elected Senators or Representa tives, suddenly become possessed of profound legal capaeity, and are thenceforth chosen as the feed counsellors of railroad corporations and grow suddenly influential and rich. Let the people look to it. We are being bound hand and foot to the enemy. No man can serve two rriusters, and the feed represen tative of a railroad must be false to his con stituents or his client in all cases where their interests conflict. He has a double duty to perform. As counsel he must act for his cli ent —as a representative he should act for his State. The one pays, the other dues nut, and hence the liberal grants to chartered compa nies, and the golden dreams of poor attorneys. We think our Legislature, like Congress, should appoint an “Investigating Committee,” and report the names of the members who are agents or attorneys for different corpora tions, that the eyes of the people may be upon them.

New Editor of the Washington Union.— The ( rumor is current, although we think no definite arrangement to that effect has been consummated, that Hon. John Appleton, of Maine, is to succeed Judge Nicholson as editor of the Washington Union. We are quite cer tain that we are not mistaken when we say that Mr. Appleton's accession to the post named will be received with satisfaction by the entire Democratic party of the Union.— He is a gentleman of fine talents, familiar with public life—having been in Congress, and served as secretary of legation at London while Mr. Buchanan was minister —accus- tomed to editoral service as the conductor of the Eastern Argus, a paper of decided ability and discretion, and, above all, as a qualifica tion for the position which rumor assigns him, possesses sagacity and prudence. He is well understood to enjoy in a high degree the es teem and confidence of the incoming President. 8®» We clip the above paragraph from the Albany Argus t with the remark that the rumor is well founded. The Washington Union of the I7th inst., says:—“After the 4th of Maroh the editor of this paper [Mr. Nichol son] will retire, when the Hon. John Apple ton will become sole editor-and proprietor.— The arrangements which have resulted in- this change have been consummated without the slightest difficulty ; and we sincerely congrat ulate our readers upon a result which secures the services of a gentleman whose eminent qualifications are so truthfully set forth in the above remarks of the Albany Argus. We may be excused for adding that our retirement is voluntary, and in pursuance of a resolution long since made.” Union Express Company.— A bill has been introduced'into the Legislature, by Mr. Mum ma, of Dauphin county, to incorporate a com pany to be called the Union Express Company. It is designed, save the Harrisburg Herald , to raise a rival to Adams’ celebrated Express Company. The corporators, it is said, are all men of enterprise and ipeans, and if this bill passes, it will be a formidable rival to the other company. is a matter of consid able interest to the public who have for years been severely bled by Adams' Express, and we therefore hope the bill may become a a law. f®“The “Democratic Watchman, pub lished at Bellefonte, Centre county, has changed hands. Its late editor, Mr. Henry Hays, took his farewell week before last, and John T. Hoover, E*q., his successor, assumed control. It has hoisted the name of William F. Paoker, of Lycoming county, for Gover nor. The Traitor* Denounced. An immense indignation meeting r f the Democracy of York county, wni held in the Borough of York, on Saturday evening the 17th inst., for the purpose of taking action on the course of the traitor, Maxkar, who had sold himself to Simon Cameron. The meeting was presided over by John Finley, Esq., of Lower Chaocefurd—assisted by fifteen Vice Presidents and five Secretaries. Nearly e>. township in the county was represented, ami the meeting was addressed by M’.flhun [j Welsh, Esq. The following preamble and resolution*, reported by a Committee, were tbeu read : Whereas, the Democracy of York cuunty, have -earned with amazemeut that Samuel Manear. one of their representatives in the Legislature <>i Pennsylvania, has betrayed the confidence reposed in him by the citizen* of •• Old Democratic York,” by voting for Simon Cameron for United States Senator, in oppo sition to the nominee <>f the democratic caucus, therefore Resolved, That the conduct nf Samuel Ma nerfr, in voting for the blaok-republiean-kuow nothing candidate for the Senate of the United States, in open defiance of the wishes of the entire Democratic party of this county, and in direct violation ot bin often repeated pledges,, is an act of Treason and Infamy that will sink; him to the lowest depths of degradation, and make his name despised and scorned by all honorable and high minded men. Resolved, That Lebo and Wagonseller of Schuylkill county, the infamous associates of Manear in his depravity and villaDy, are de serving of nothing but scorn and contempt and should be shunned and loathed by every honest man as a destroying pestilence, which carries terror and contagion on its poisonous wings. Resolved, -That as for such base traitors there is no punishment provided by law, we therefore, have expressed the deep and abid ing execration of a deceived and betrayed constituency, and will enrol their names with those who in times gone by have been guilty of similar treachery, at the head of which stands the name of Judas in Silver, and at the tail the name of Manear in Middletown paper. Resolved, That we have no doubt that the conduct of this infamous trio was the result of bribery and corruption ; and in order that they and their guilty coadjutors may be fully ex posed as a warning to others in the future, as well as for the honor and dignity of the Com monwealth of Pennsylvania, we earnestly beg the House of Representatives to thoroughly investigate the means by which this fraud and treason were consummated. Resolved, That Samuel Manear be request ed to resign forthwith and permit the seat which he now occupies to remain vacant, so that the pulutiou of the traitor may no longer be an eyesore to his honest and faithful col leagues and a disgrace to the State Capitol. Resolved, That the thanks of the democracy of York county, are due and are hereby ten dered to the Hon. Mr. Evans of Berks, and the Honorable Messrs. Leisenring aud Mcll vain of Philadelphia, Nunnemacher and Hoffman of Monroe and Pike, and Pearson of Northampton for the bold and high-toned let ter to the traitor Menear, refusing to hold any intercourse with him hereafter, or to lire un der the game roof with him. . Resolved, That the open boast of James M. Anderson, of Carrol township, that he had the entire control of Manear, and yet refused to exercise his iufluence to save the party from betrayal, although at Harrisburg, has forfeit ed the confidence of the Democratic party. Resolved, That the Democracy of York county, now assembled in County Meeting, hereby revoke the appointment of James M. Anderson as Senatorial Delegate to the State Convention, which assembles on the 2nd of March next, and appoint Maj. Charles M. Smyser,.of the Borough of York, in his stead. Resolved, ijhat the course ol Senator Wm. H. Welsh, and our Representatives, Col. James Ramsey and Isaac Beck meets with the full approbation of the Democracy of York county, which' now in county meeting assembled, greet them with, “ well dune good and faithful ser vants !” Resolved, That the editors of the Demo cratic papers in York county, be requested to place the names of the three traitors conspi cuously at the head of their editorial columns, properly designated, and keep them there until the next October election, as a terror to evil doers hereafter. Resolved, That these proceedings be publish ed in ail the Democratic papers of the State, and a copy of the same, be sent to the Senators and Representatives of the State Legislature, and to the members of the Democraric State Convention, which meets at Harrisburg on the 2e of March next. ggy The reading, of the resolutions was frequently interrupted by applause, and were adopted without a dissenting voice and amid great cheering. After they had been presented to the meet ing, Mr. Mulgrew and Maj. Charles M. Smyaer made a few remarks, and the assem blage adjourned to the Centre Square, where Lebo, Wagonseller and Manear were burned in effigy, in the presence of a large crowd of our citizens. A meeting of the Democracy of the end of York county, was held in Shrewsbury, (in . Makzar’s own neighbor* hood,) on the evening of the 14th inst., when the following resolutions were adopted by ac clamation : Whereas, we have learned with deep morti fieation of the treason of Lkbo and Wagon seller of Schuylkill, and Samuel Manear, of our county, to the party that placed them in power, in supporting Simon Cameron for United States Senator agaiust the regular Democratic candidate. Resolved , That our immediate Representa tive, Samuel Manear, .has forfeited all trust reposed—that he has betrayed and sold a con fiding constituency—that we execrate and abhor him, his treachery, deceit and villainy. Resolved, That .he be requested to resign hip seat in the House, which he has disgraced, so that it may be filled by an honest man— one who cannot be bought. Resolved , That the Legislature be requested to take the proper means to investigate the late election of U. S. Senator, truly believing that nothing but money induced the miserable wretches, Lebo, Wagonseller and Manear, to betray their party. Resolved , That the THE THREE TRAI TORS be burned in effigy on to-morrow evening, the 15th inst., in the borough of Shrewsbury. An Important Suggestion. The State Treasurer, in his report to the Legislature, recommends the repeal of the law which allows an abatement of five per cent, for the prompt payment of taxes. The reason urged by Col. Magjaw against its continuance, is that it produces a large sur plus in the Treasury, not required by actual necessity, and at a cost to the State of the five per cent, abatement. The Pittsburg Post says: “But there is another reason why this law should be removed, of almost equal force, and t that is, that a very small proportion of this ; abatement mures to the benefit of the actual tax-payer. Its practical operation is to put money into the pockets of the County Treas urers, who, in many counties, are in the habit of paying their whole quota of State tax, in time to claim the abatement, when but a small proportion has actually been paid in.— This they do by raising money on the credit of the county, or their own personal credit— which is nearly the same thing, as it is af fected by their position—paying the whole tax, and pocketing the five per cent, realized. In this way, the abatement allowed is made to work to the almost exclusive benefit of County Treasurers. It is of no advantage to the treasury, the necessity that called it in being, having passed, and it is of very little practical benefit to the people, and it offers opportuni ties to the State and County Treasurers to speculate in the public funds. The sugges tion of the Treasurer is worthy of serious consideration.” The State Legislature. But little of consequence was transacted in either branch of the Legislature during the past week, in oonsequence of the'snow storm —so many members being detained at home (whither they had gone the Saturday previous) on account of the impassable condi tion of the roads. The principal business at tended to was the presentation of petitions and offering of resolutions on rations subjects of no general interest.

Badly Frozen. .Mr. Greeno, the Constable of Mount Joy township, loft bis residence in irpringville, thirteen miles from this city, on Suuday night week, about 12 o’clock, on foot, so as to be in Court here on Mnuday moruiag to make his return. He reached Sprecbor’s Hotel, in this city, about 5 o’clock, in tho morning, badly frozen, having come'the whole distance without stopping—there being no place open along the road where ho could hare warmed himself. Dr. Muhlenberg was called in. and reports, we learn, that Mr. Greene will lose parts of both feet—they being so badly frozen that circulation cannot be revived. Intense Cold! —At sunrise, on Friday morning last, tho mercury in the tliermometor had fallen to 12 degrees below zero, iu this City. Ugh 1 but It was a pinching time. On Sunday week, at Albany, the thur. mometor indicated 20 degrees below zero; at Montreal,22; at Quebec, 30 ; at Woodstock. Vt., 30 ; at Ogdensburgb, 36; and at Watertown, 40 degrees below terol This was em phatically the CbW sunffay in this vicinity, and, Judging from the state of the tbermometor iu the above-mentioned places, it must-have been still more severe oorth and east of us. The Lecture this Evening.— Rev. Wm. 11. Uillduun, the celebrated Blind Preacher, will deliver a lecture in the First M. E. Church, North Duke street, this evening—aee advertisement. This gentleman Uone of the most gifted and eloquent Pulpit orators of the day. and bis lecture will doubtless be exceedingly luteresting. We hope to see the Church crowded. Passage of the Municipal Bill. — The bill relative to opening streets, to restrict the erection of wooden buildiugs, and to facilitate the collection of tAxes In the City of Lancaster, by the appoiutment of a Receiver, has passed both branches of the Legislature, and only awaits the Executive signature, which it doubtless will receive, to become a law.

M.—The Postmaster General has appointed Henry Stauffer, Esq., P. M. at Adamstown. In this county, vice M. L. Weidner, removed. Unjust Complaint.— One of the silliest things we hare seen in a long time, was the attempt of the passengers detained at this point to thro.w the blame upon the Superintendent and other officials on the Railroad.— The condemnatory resolutions and petition to the Legiela ture are simply ridiculous and absurd. As well might they attempt to arraign Providence for sending the terrible snow storm. It would be about as sensible as what they have done; for, we venture‘to say, that Col. Bases did every thing that mortal man could do—laboring night and day himself—to get the road clear of the immense' drifts ef snow which covered it in many places from ton to fifteen feet deep. The same may be said of the Deputy Superintendent, Mr. Darlingtoi, who is one of the most energetic and industrious Assistants that ever was upon the road. The Supervisors of sections, too, have all beeu prompt aad'did everything in their power to remove tbf* obstructions. Wo know the fact that the Supervisor of the section running from three miles below to one mile and a half above the City, Mr. Uknry Schaum, put an immense force at work and had his section cleared in a comparatively short time—but the high wind on Wednesday and Thurs day again drifted the snow upon the track, and required mack of the labor to bo done over again. This, we under itaud, was the case all along the line from Columbia to Philadelphia. Why should complaints he preferred against the official* on the Columbia and Philadelphia road, when It is no torious that all the ot h*T rail road* north and east of us are also blocked up—and even south, betweea York and Baltl more, and between Baltimore and Washington City, they are still in the samepredivament, or were daring nearly the whole of the past week! Why don’t these grumbler# arraign the management of all those roads, too? Th* Difference.— At the Know-Nothing meeting on Saturday evening, to nominate candidates for Mayor and High Constable, there were but 283 votes polled in all—whereas at the Democratic meetings for the same purpose, held on the same evening, there were 713 votes polled! “Straws show which way the wind blows." Railroad Accident.— The cars on the Harrisburg and Lancaster Railroad run over an embank ment, on Saturday last, near Middletown, by which several persons were seriously injured—amongst otherH, Mr. John C. Zell, of this city, and Col. James Cameron, of Union county. K. N. Nominees.—Mr. Henry M. White, of the N. W. Ward, was nominated as the K. N. candidate for Mayor, at the meeting, at the National House, on Sat urday evening. Mr. Jobit Maativ was selected as the candidate for High Constable. Communication. To my Democratic friends, who gave me their support, for the nomination for Mayor, I return my sincere thanks; and now ask, as an additional favor, their hearty co-operation with me to elect the full Democratic si si ttteiL SO, ’IT. 0.0. tt.

The river continues open at this point, but might as well be closed, as all the upper streams are frozen over, and the water below so soant and the floating ice so thick and heavy, that It would be dangerous to ven ture oat upon a voyage. The Alton packets have made several trips in the past week, but the recent cold snap has put a stop to them. Wo have had no steamboat srri. vals for some time. There are ten or fifteen boats at Cairo waiting an opportunity to reach the city. Business, in consequence of the suspension of navigation, is extremely dull. It would seem that our railroads are quite as bid, If not worse, than river navigation. Our cltiseua complain greatly about the delay of freight sent bv them. We had some freight shipped at Boston on the 2d of December, and the goods have not arrived yet; had we have ordered them shipped via New Orleans they would have been at band.—. We were In hopes that when the railroads were finished freight could be brought to this elty at all seasons of the rear with dispatch, hut It seems to be worse than when we had no sueb roads. We certainly have not been bono fited by tbe construction of such rai/road*—we would much rather rely upon the speed of •'Davy Leech's" canal boats I Let it therefore be remembered that goods sent via New. Orleans to tbe West, in the winter season, will reach their destination about as quick, if not sooner, than by railroad. Our Legislature ban passed a bill for a better system ef Banking facilities, which was greatly needed.

The cause for this onslaught is unknown. — Wheatland was killed in his bed. La Polnte was arrested, committed for trial, and is now in our county jail.

It would seem that no Senator from Indiana can be elected at this session of the Legislature. l,ast wintor the Democrats had a majority in tbe Senate, and refused to go into an election ; this winter the Blacks have a majority iu the Senate. and they, lu turn, decline going Into an election. In our mentiou last we--k of the arrival of I>r. Cha*. Laib and F. D. Preston, Ksqrs.. of the Illinois Legislature, we .neglected to add that the lion. C'has. 11. Constable and Col. Dennis of the same State accompanied them. We will also remark that Mr. Constable beaded the Illinois Demo, eratic Electoral ticket. He is an "old Hue Whig.” bnt like neauy other Ualou-loving and conservative patriots, forgot past political differences, fell into the ranks of Democracy, and fought with all his energy and power tbe good fight for the Union and the Constitution against Sectionalism and fanaticism. Ho wa* not oue of the old Whig party who forgot their country and its welfare in tbe wild hoop f.ir spoils and power, by lending their voice and vote to the opponents of Democracy: but seeing the danger to which his country was threatened, took the stump in de fence of Mr. Buchanan and the glorious cause in which we were engaged, and contluued unceasingly—night and day—in the advocacy of the Cincinnati nominees. The accession of Mr. Coustable to our ranks, was an army of of itself, for he was heretofore one of the most prominent of the Whig party, and his valuable aid and influence ma terially assisted tbe gallant Democracy of Illinois. In giv ing tbe State to our National standard bearers. Mr. C. is a aid to be a bold and fearless speaker, and pronounced b those who know, one ef the most dignified and eloquent orators of Illinois. Wo are pleased to record suoh names as Cbas. 11. Constable on our demoeratlc roll. The Democ racy of Illinois owe much to Mr. C., and w# trust that his valuable services Id times like those we have just passed through, will be, at an parly day. kindly acknowledged.— We bad the honor of his acquaintance, and were much pleased with his manners; and admire him more for the tbe able and eloquent speeches he made daring the recent canvass in favor of “ Back and Breek." F. D. Preston, Ksq., member of the Legislature, an an. flinching and uncompromising Democrat of long standing, did his part In Illinois, and the vote of “ Egypt"—(South ern Illinois; —bears us out in the asssertion. Mr. P. hails from that “beuighted” section. We take pleasure in fa vorably mentioning the names of such men as are above recorded. We read with surprise and deep regret the dispatch an. nounolng the election of Simon Cameron to the U. S. Sen. ate from your State, over Col. John W. Forney. The friends of Col. F. in this totality were not prepared for such a result; it was expected, after all that Col. Forney did to wards the eleetion of Mr. Buchaaan and the triumph of Democracy, that the Democratic Legislature of Pennsylva nia wonld acknowledge his valuable aid by electing him to the United States Senate, when in their power eo to do; bat In this we have been mistaken, and we have likewise been deceived in the character ef some of yeur Democratic legislators. Let their names be heralded far and wide, and held up to public gaze as doserters io the flush of battle Let their constituents know them in the future. We bad hoped to fill the measure of rejoicing with the election of Col. Forney to the Senate, but his unexpected defeat great, ly mars the glorious triumph we were wont to celebrate.— A proud and brilliant future yet awaits the Colonel. On Monday last the Hon. James S. Green was elected to the U. B. Senate, by our Legislature; and on Tuesday Tmsten Polk, our newly inaugurated Governor was also elected to a seat lathe Senate of the United States. Mr. Green was formerly a Democratic Congressman, and was re-elected last August. His election leaves 'a vacancy in our next Congressional delegation. Mr. Polk has been a week or. two in the Gubernatorial Chair, but he has be come so very popular with all parties, that the Democracy •aw fit to have him in the Senate to represent them, they therefore gavo him the very flattering vote of 101 out of 171 cast; there belag'.but one ballot for each Senator—Col. Beaton obtained against Green 14 votes; Kennett had 32, Green receiving 80—81 necessary to a choice. Benton against Polk 23 votes; Gamble 84; Scattering 8. The election of Messrs. Green and] Polk seem to elicit general satisfaction among nearly ail parties. The friends of Col. Benton gave up his chances long since. It may now safely be said that “old Bullion" will never get into the Senate. He can now well see the cause of his defeat. Bat notwith standing the adverse eirtumstauees tba t have for several years past surrounded him—he is this day as much ad mired and respected by both friend and political foe, as iu his palmiest days. The new administration will find in Messrs. Green and Polk firm and steadfast supporters—both National Demo crats and conservative men. The discussion relative to the Lieuteuant Governorship was finally decided in favor of Jackson, Dem.. over New land, K. N., and Jaeksou ha* taken hi* lent a* Ltent. Gov ernor of Missouri. Notwithstanding all that has beau said relative to Col- Bissell and the oath he had to take, he was duly inaugura ted on Monday lest—he being too ill to go to the Hall, the oath was administered at the Gov-jraor’" man-don in the presence of both branches of the legislature. He was asked whether he had ever sent or accepted a challenge to fight a duel, and answered. N'U’ Whau Col. Bissell answered that question he, uo doubt, meant that he did not do so in that State, for no one of bis acquaintances will deny but that he did at one time challenge a gentleman. The oath, therefore, which Col. Bisseß ha* just taken, rests with him and hi* God. On Saturday quite au alarm and excitement prevailed In our el'y, among business men and in business circles, on the receipt of a dispatch from Cbl-ago, stating that the Banks there had thrown out some half dozen of the Illi nois State Banks’ notes. Those who had any of this money immediately repaired to their places of deposit to get rid of it. The Brokers all received it on Saturday evening, and the probability is they will continue to do so. It seem# that some misunderstanding has occurred 'between these State Banks and the Bankers of Chicago—hence their re fusal to receive them. We think the banks thrown out about aa good as those received —neither better than they should be. What’s in a Name.— A Mr. Doolittle, ha« been elected to the C. S.

Snow in lowa and Nebraska.— We learn from the Councill Bluffs papers that the snow has fallen to a greater depth, this winter, in Western lowa and Nebraska than ever before known, even to the “oldest Inhabitant." 'Within the la*t two or three weeks nine U. S. Senators have been chosen—of whom four are Democrats and five Black Kepnblicans.— Nine more are yet to be chosen before the end of the present Congress.
