does the masses of the Democratic. party in the
North, end on it should do that of the party its the
Sera, In the oontest that placed the favorite of
' Pennsylvania in the Presidential chair lest fell, we
stood shoulder to shoulder with the South on the
leading queatiep of that canvass, the "Ransae.Ne
braska act," endorsed as it was by the Cincinnati
Convention, and by resolution'of that Convention,
the clearly defined rights of the people of the Ter
ritories at the ballot-box. -On these principles' we
triumphed, after an,• exciting. and momentous
struggle, and all we ask now is that the faith and in
tegray of the Deemer& tic party should be sustained
in carrying out fairly the principles thee advo
cated, mad which, at this time, 'become highly ,
important. A new Territory seeks fur admission
under the Kansas-Nobraska act, and asks for hor
citizens the privilege to determine their own do
mestm Institutions If this is, granted by Congress,
; and firmly enforced, Kenna Cornea quietly into
tholJnion, and the Deemer/ale doctrine of popu
ler sovereignty becomes the settled policy of the
country; the vexed question of slavery ceases to I
become the food of a horde , of demagogues who
aspire to power on its commlem agitation., On the
other hand, should Congress sanction the Leootop.
ton Constitution, coneeived as it was in fraud And
iniquity, and framed and supported by a handful j
of designing men, it then re-opens the question,
and, invites to every Territory seeking for ad
miniion the same actors to open the drama, and
- reenact the scenes that have occurred in Katmai
daring the post year. It wilt then be seen who
arethe friends of the Itepublioau party—we, who
are striking at the very foundation of that party
by the settlement of the slavery question forever,
or those who 'contend for its remaining an open
question ; and than keitinp the Republican organi
sation. Taking our stand on the Clean/lett plat
farm and the Kansas-Nebraska act, we eau view
with 'oontempt the presses that essay to road UN out
of the Democratic party. As we have Always'
stood, so stand wo now. 7 .the, conservators of the

[correApoudonto or Tho Prem.]
Pirresonntr, Dee. 21, 1857.
I notice in an artists, published the other day in
one of your eity papers, bat you are VIM) at the
" tail of a trio of disgraced Damara ," and that
your influence as ajourn tin this State "amounts
to nothing." In Waste at Yennaylvanta,your friends
.—almost the entire party on the Kansas question—
are inolined to the opinion that you are the head
of the "trio,// and that your valuable paper
wields' a more powerful influence than an, other
Journal in the State; nay, more—that it is the
organ of the Dtrnocratte party let rerintylvan
,The bold and manly stand taken 14 you, ffrit,
Ta-favor of the rights of the people of Kansas, wall
aclaiesred lit by Senator Douglas aud Oorernor
Walker; and when the "Little Want" expressed
himself lo favor of " the will of the majority,"
wben'Oovornor 'Walker defined his position, and
the President proclaimed that the submitting of
the Whole Constitution to the people "was the
onto sound principle," and that he gave such in
struction to his officer 11t unquallfir4 tonne, our
party felt proud of 'tbe Democracy of the ‘, trio,"
and Of the wisdom of the President, for the vital
principle of its trait was sustained and Its pledges
redeemed.
It is unfair to charge the friends of the trio with
being enemies to the President in this Issue, In
his late Message fdr. 'Buchanan annihilates this
argument in emphatically Reverting what he con
siders to be "the only soviet, principle," and iq
his refusal to make this it teat question of Denier
crsoy by not recommending some mode of relief to
Congress. The " trio " has plaood its opinions on
the record, and Urea upon Congressin the strong ,
est terms, and in unimewerable arguments, that
the " will of the Majority " is sound Democratic
doctrine end in consonance with the party pledges
in the compotes of 18511. It supports the Admin.
istretion and sustains Governor lValker. Its ro
lotions, socially as well as politically, with the
Cabinet is of the most friendly character; and,
doubtless, the Cabinet; will yet lean on it far that
support which will be so cheerfully given, and
initial' has always Sustained it.
The reputation of Tun Prisss In this city and
coun ty is ititpreredentrd, rind Its Wallis boa been
greatly enhanced - by the able arguments recently
produced in favor of "the only sound principle."
I will venture to say that your patrons here peruse
it with the intensest interest, and that its columns
reflect the eentinonte of ninc-te»the of the Demo
ante of this section. The high-minded and hono
rableycourse you have pursued ;towards those (Gov.
'Bigler and others) who have honestlydiffered with
you in opinion, hue enlisted the admiration of all,
and presents a striking contrast With the undig
nified attack of your enemies
-, ti enemies, that know not, ,
W
'hy they are so, but, like to Pillage curs,
Berk when Melt tepews 'is."
Illustrative of the estimate placed on Tan Pease
by year friends here; the following is good:
A lirm'of same distillation' in thin vicinity is a
sub:caliber 'or yours, and also of other papers.
When the members eetelioeing that firm are about
to
S erStrato in' the evening of each day,.to seek
the cleat of thole yeepective home!, the " toss of a
mapper" airmitideoldes who shall take the Pause
home to his family. ' And let me here whisper to
you that the lucky—thus far—member is one of a
half mom of our citizens whose opinion differs With
the "trio of &Owed Democrats," and = he , al
ways laughs when he wine. Is this significant of
anything 4r,ecKeex Ditmecw.

the purpose of reading it to Mr. Snelling, who is
usually selected as his victim on such occasions.
Pratt commenced as follows :
"Lbve bad seized on the soul of the renowned
and `ruigh ty Count"—
" Bah!" interrupted the listener, "Count will
never do. Make your hero a tailor. Counts aro
too common."
"What !" exolalmeJ the literary amateur; ,• do
you pretend to may that Coanto are more common ,
than tailors?"
"In aortae they are," replied Snelling. " Be
elike, every man should try to exalthisowu profes
sion, and you have here an excellent opportunity
to make your craft illuctrioup, if your novel should
ever be fend by the public."
These cogent reamns induced Pratt, though with
vlsible reluotanoc, to make the proposed alteration.
lie then resumed, "Love had seised the soul of
the renowned and mighty tailor, Rod°lpho Bendo•
clot. In person, he wee elegant, graceful, and
slender----"
4 . liold on !" uguin interrupted Snelling, "In
stead of blonder, put &kali'
?" repeated the horrPled Pratt.
"Yes," answered Snelling; " If your hero in a
tailor, be met be fat and portly. •It is because
gentleman of our profession arawsually represent
ed as small and thin, that ill-tsatured people have
got up that absurd proverb n'Oeut its taking nine
tailors to make a men."
“ Wolf, I tell you what, Tow Snelling,” said the
embryo anther, "if you pull my works to pieces in
this way, you shall not heat another word of them."
And bore the Irate Pratt zoned up his innn „ er iir.
"I can out, drink, and, sleep as well without
h ear i ng any of your stupid stuff," sold Snelling ;
" and If I want to dem myself in that way, I can
subscribe for ono of tise literary weeklies."
- Thie last affront etstnplately upset .fr. Pratt's
equanimity. ills eye begatt to roll in a fine fren
zy, and a hot gootef; (anima one,) which happened
to stand near him; on a furnace, was soon seen
flying through thn air, directing Its course towards

of the court, at various times, for a, period of se

is an old Quaker gentleman, in • veil habics state
of health,: and has formerly occupied pantime of
great trust and responsibility in this city. Sipes

The law gave him the power to prefer anyereditor

It is said it was the defendant'. duty to Live

to say Ma conduct in not doing MU frvOd.
The doctrine of the courts of equity illustrates
this. I End it difficult to bring my mind to fhe
convietion thit a man who disregards a lien, how
ever equitable, commits a (rend. If this was a
fraud, the right should biro been asserted at the
time. • Notice should have been given to this 'de

not be denied. It Is the law of Penneylvania that
he may dispose of his property in payment of his

said that would bare justified me in holding this

But this does not appear. The period of tieiti is
short I cannot 'confider this as a liqoideted
debt. This has great weight with me. Ido not
think there was but one duty for him to perfsrm
—that is, to pay. What be has to pay these pliiu
tiffs has not been shown until accountants were
employed. and perhaps until the present hearing.
Suppose the defendant had asked counsel: Siust - I
pay Reeves •' Counsel would hare advised him to
pause. The plaintiff suffer here. perhaps, from
not rendering accounts sooner. But put that out
of the question. Two items of the plaintiffs' ac
counts defendant insisted should be counted-
These were •
1. The $15,000 not allowed on miaow:it of the
Franklin Furnace operation.
2. The claim of $9 or $lO,OOO for commissions.
It appears to me you could not say this aceetint

bring the ease, however that may be benthiter,
plaintiff teems to have given it up. The commis
sions probably aro not due, and I need not, per
haps. say anything oath* questionof the lien. But
I will say the lien did not come down to the pre
sent time; if so, it was binding on all parties. I
cannot suppose that persons who have advanced re
cently would not be preferred to anterior advances
of Reeves The agreement between these parties
wits wade for only one year, and when brought to
o close in IB,il Orrin turd cannot use this lien.
It is proper to add one word as to the $2,000
mortgage. It that had been the only matter, it
may be I should have thought the defendant had
violated his agreement, and I might have thought
it a fraud. Considering that both parties bare
overlooked.this, I should consider it a straining of
principle to hold this a fraud. I will express my
Inetinetion in regard to thin proceeding In aid of a
bill in equity. - I think - tbis-preeeeding is given

been made out that a party is Intending to with•
draw from the kingdom. Such a writ never is
sued, ao far as I know, in Pennsylvania, and Judge
Xing 'a:premed some doubt if it could issue. It
results, therefore, that defendant ought not to be
