if Vaittable Invention.
We were shown s ieuoitly. a ii!ge, invented
-and..patented by Dr. J. She! flume Smith,
-which apbears to be one of the most Useful of
all inventions. It combines four Separate and
distinct 9apacitietS, viz.
1. A per feet and !durable tinge. .
' 2. It wiil by a simple adjustment closes
door, and keep it closed, With any degree cf
forte required.
3. By a difference of _a.ljugment it -will
cause a door toopen and remain so.
4. And be another adjustment a door may
I9e made to stand open-at any desired angle,
and with'sufficient force, if neces.ary, to
sist the strongest wind or other influence.
- This binge isdesigned to be used on doss
'of houses, stores, banks, tke.; or on trunks,
window's, blinds, and, in facl,, .wherever any
binge . may ha • wed. Though., of trifling ex
peitse,,its value is . untolir; 'shuffle in conkrue
tion_itcannot break, or wear oat, and may be
adjusted by nny person very•easily.
:The Dr. -inte,:ds engawei in the mann--
. facture !time, belose long, and when
its merits are fully known, it'caanot but come
into- .use everywhere. The'. Dr. will' spend - a
fen* weeks at SuNuellatitia Depot where all
who desire, can see the' hinge and -judge , for
themselves.
The itribe.
Since the_pa-age of :tiJe English bill, the
Black Republican party find nothing 9f Which
to complain, except that-a 'bribe is offered to'
the people of Kansas; to.induce them to adopt
the constitution. " Those Who make such a
fuss about the matter kno* very well that
there nothing.in it. It is mereiy. a hobby
which they. are fo_rced Ito:mount, for want of
9 , ...bettertine. If the land grant was either
unusual or extravagant, there - might be some
sense in their opposition tout: =.But as .the
grant is a customary one, aid the procieds
are to be judiekusly apptopriated, the war
. made against it, is entirely unjust. To show
bow the more sensible of the opposition view
this feature of the bill, we present the fyilow-:.
ingeotnolents upon it, from the Washington,
Slates, an anti-Administraiion . paper:
• "The new Kansas bill .accepts the Critten
-den ordinance; and, while preisenting - thaeto
the rceopla, - according , to our interpretation,
allows the latter to ex - Press their still on-the
constitution. It is a virtual subtnisNion of the
constitution, though not done in as straight
. forward a manner as we could desire.
• " As the'ordinanee icon!y such a one as is
usual In-the cisea of all new States, there is
no. particular reason why the peopleshall be.
influenced to accept it. Whenever they come
inobey will ha • ve just Buell an ordinance—
certainly one of not less value; while the
Lecompton ordinance would have given them
•- "one seven times more valuable. The Leconip
ton ordinance would be north in' land-some
V 28,490,200 ; •-the Oldinance of the new bill
gi;es : land to , the.amouat of toi,•er $4,000,000
• Therefore Are cannot regard tkg new ordinance
as a bribe to swallow the constitution, as it is
only tke us-hol grant,incl seti•en times le4t ban
that demanded hy - Kainsas, , eupposing K a n sas
'to have made the Legompten instrument. ,If
Kansairejects s this eon:imp - 4On, she will have
what she is now ofered by thi new ordinance
when she comes in With any otheranvtitution;
amsequently; it cannot 14 a pee t bribe to
weallowliner .
Ate The Republican of week befOre last,
made. its appearance on Wednesday, before
noon, with a paragraph in the editorial col
umns, stating that I bad been an apPlicant
fur, the appointment of Postmaster at Mont-
rose. -An advance copybeing shown to me,
I noticed the incorrect statement, inctimme.
diately called,at the office and informed Mr.
Frazier that I bad never been an applicant.
He said he took the idea from report, which
he had supposed, to be conect2l explained to
him tbatsome of my friends-bad proposed,
that in the event - of a change being made, I
should be an applicant, but that, no action
bad ever been taken, .eilher bYMyself• or
friends, and that so far arf I knew, my name
had never been mentioned, at_Wmhington,
in connection with the office. •He appeared
to be entirely.satjsfted with my explanation,
and readily consented to comply, with - my
requeit tq remove the paragraph from,
the paper before any more copies Were struck
off. He left me a moment to step into.the
press•roorn, for the purpose, as I then ,under
stood, of directing his workmen to stop the
press, and remove the_article. After return
ing he informed me that enough papers were
printed to make up a few 'packages; and
upon my-asking him if ho would make the
correction the next week, he ga v e me a prom
ise that he Would ; and left Gis office sup'
posing that I need think no more of the mat
ter as he would law the truth fully and fairly
before the public. \ .But in the afternoon I was
surprised to find that the paper was being
circulated about the town with the statement
still in its columns!' A-n alteration had been
raade.in two or three immaterial words, hut
the meaning was unchanged. Not fully nu:
derstanding., the matter, but suspecting that
Mr. Frazier 'designe'd to evade the correction
entirely, I inserted in the Democrat, a brief
notice of the incorrect statement, hinting that
I depended otr the Publisher of the Republi
can to comet what he knew was tin error.
- Yesiriag to know, in :case the matte! was
tiot properly explained .the next week,.'who
was responsible for the delinquency, I called
when the senior editor, Judge Read, and re
ferred the -matter -to him, liciwing him how,
grossly his partner had violated his word.—
Ile expressed disapproval of : the act in the
strongest - terms, and, without my requesting
it, pledged himself to make a "gentlemanly
explanation" the nett week.
: When the Republican appeared last week,
I looked with some curiciSity for the " gentle •
manly explination" but found, instead, a short
paragraph, evidently designed to be as mean
as .circumstances would permit. It was cam
fully worded so as to convey the, impression
that my denial cf being an applicant for the
Postoffice was a falseticol ; the writer do,ig
ing behind - ile shallow pretext that as he did
not have, access to the records of the Posta
ficedeparttnent, he could not know whether
was as applicant or not! The initials,
H. H. F.," Were' affixed, clearing Mr. E,ead
of all part in the matter.
I;itio Dot of petty wen:lncas on the
part of Mr. Frazier needs no comment ; it eix
plains itself. It -must have - resulted from an
innate fondness for small tricks, as no end
could be accomplished by -it. He was led
into an error by report, for which he was, of
course, excusable; but in continuing to circu
late the report after 1 informed him of ; its
incorrectness, he voluntarily assumed the
position of a wilful fal.ifier. in addition -to
breaking his word with me; and his silly
squib of last week but develops more -fully
the ungentlemanly motives by'which he
seems to be gose.ined. •
I Make this explanation to the public flir a,'
doublepur.p.ose ; not only to state that I have
made no application fur the Postoffice, but
to show the character, for truthfulness. of
.those who set themselves -up as models,. and
who are constantly spitting their yerrom , at
me, in my capaCity as an editor. I need not
explain- to the readers of thdi Democrat why I
usually take no notice of the low slang which
so friquentiv appears in the "li2dependent
;" I leave , such things to be in ,
in by those in want of very' small
•
jolts. • ; • -
Instead of having been an applicant for
the Postottce,l was-not aware that any-effirri
had-been made to bring about a• change ; e
Matter was talked of a year or more since, and
'as I suimosed. bad been entirely disposed of
by•permitting the late incumbent to'retain
it ; and fora long time I . have not thought
of the matter, and do not remember haying
heard it spoken of: A. J. G.
Or' Although many of
.the acts passed
by our State Legislat ure,are of no importance
to the people of this -county, we publish a
classified list, believing that it is of sufficient
interest to repay a perusal) The mass of
voters certainly ought to kno* what their
servants, whether faithfUl'or. unfaithful, have
been doing all winter. It will be noticed
trial great satisfaction that no banks were
chartered. Several articles, together with a
variety of news, have been crowded out, ow
ing toile great length of the list.
AV - Two changes have taken place in . the
U. S. Senate during the past week, occasioned
by the death cf Senator Evans of S. C., and
the resignation of Senator Biggs of N. C., who
has been appointed Judge to fill &vacancy in
the United States Court.. ...The death of
Senator Leans was very sudden, ho haying
been in his seat as usual the day before his
death. He was attacked with disease d the.
heart. His age was 71 years. He was one
of the best men in the Senate, and was very
highly respected by all, irrespective of party..
The Governor of N. C. has appointed Hun.
Thomas Clingrnan,K C., to take , the place of
Senator7liliggs, leaving a vacancy in the
louse of Repressmtatives.
Another State Admitted.
The bill admitting Minrieseta into the Union,
passed the House, on Tuesday ; it had passed
the Senate.sonte time ago. She cornea in with
a solid Democratic delegation, two Senators and
two Representatives.
The Mack Republicans, &low' Nothings and
fire-eater/ had intended to unite and keep her
out, for being a Democratic Free'State, but not
having quite the requisite strength they mostly
abandoned the utidertaipg, and- only 38 of
them finally voted no. They are mostly of those
who opposed , the Ade:anion of Kansas. The
