The "Grater" at Wralaiwori—now, indeed, no
body's mini in particular—is tuned to its highest
possible key, and pours forth its most plaisive
nertarait-the funeral dirge of the corrupt and thne
serving stipesdiries of the slave power whoM

MOM imoi,the - wind instrument` as - changed its

that they must gotheffallimore nomination "blind°,
or give up their office ; all 'this it endured withoni

=entail:ins—it harps upon " proscription"—anifthe
" axe in motion" ' affords it daily the tantheit of a
song. Looking beck a few short Months, we can
not but believe that the old man'slamentations are
hypocritical—we know they art silly and out of
placei and we advise him to hold op before he has
astartained whether there may not be even a lower
depth of eontempt than that he halt attained, to
which public estimation can consign him.
It is not manly in Democrats to cry about pro
- seription • when they are dreamt's" A few months.
since, we, in common' with the Democratic press of
this State urged upon the General • Government,
that duty to the party required the dismissal of every
whig retained in office. Such was the wish of the
pasty expressed in public meetings, and in other
Inge The advent of another Democratic
niatsailee would make a clean sweep. It is ridi
yokels, then; for Demecrats to make such a fuss,
about the very ads for which they would be the
that* darner. Every administration should fill
its offices with good. aid capable men ffits own par
ty ; it should turn oat all who are incapable or in.
efficient, and all of these who have been zealous
and active political opponents. This is the Derno
cede doctrine—apt) no adminitration which does
not it least go this far, can retain the reaped and
friendship of the patty to which it owes its 'eleva
lion. -
The Peamsylvanian ; • we are sorry to see, !gain

it would become; what the Lancaster Intelligence/
was of old, a bold, free speaking paper. We trust
that when it begins to feel that it is no longer ans.
werable to the "powers that be," we shall see it
improve. The editor recognized the Democratic
doctrine by promptly retaining kis office. Who
ever credit may he attached to theractof his resign

" After a long delay, which had wearied me to
the point of resolving to set' Opt again myself tidings
have at last reached me from my , it fated party :
" Mr. Vincent Haler came io last night, having
the night before reached the Little Colomdof settle
meat, with three or four ethers. Including • Mr.
King and Mr. l'usdx, we have lost eleven of our'
part y.
g• Occurrences, since! left them are briefly these
so far as they came within the knowledge ofMr. Ha

force'my l mind todwell upon the details of what has
been suffered. I need reprieve from terrible cou•
temptations. I am absolutely antonished at the
persistence of misfortune—this succession oictam
uses which no ape or vigitance'of mind could lore-,
see prevent.
" You will remember that I had left the camp
(twenty-threo men) when I set off with Godey,
l'renes,and my servant in search of King and suc
cor wi t h directions about the bagpige, and with
occupation sufficient about it to employ' them for
three or four days; 'after which they were to follow
me down the over: Within that time I excepted
relief from King's party, if it came at all. They re
teamed seven days, and then started, their teen
provisio' about exhausted and the deed mules on
the western side of the great, Sierra buried wider
snow. . .
" Manuel—Um will remember Manuel—a Chri.
Man Indian of Commas tribe, in the valley of the
San Joaquin) gave way to a feeling ofd air of
ter they had moved about two miles and begged
Vincent Haler whom I had left in command to
shoot him. Falling to find death in that form he
turned and made his way back.to the camp, intend
ing to die there , ; which he doublets soon did.
"The party moved on and at ten relies Wise
gage out—threw away his gun and blanket— and a
few hundred yards further fell over into the snow,
and died. Two Indian boys—countrymen of Man
ael—wete behind. They came upon him—rolled
him up in his blanket and buried hire in the snow
on the bank alto river.
"No other filed that day. None the next.

him several blows on the head with a rifle gun;
