We regret to see, however, that these antici pations have been disappointed, and that we are now compelled to bold the Administration responsible for an, example which must react against that Administration with fatal effect ; and if carried into the Mire policy of the par ty, must destroy that party as effectually as if It bad gone down like Sodom and Gurnor esti; ,or beau ; overravept .by the wing of the devastating angel. The course of the Washington Union for the last week, backed as that course now is by the New York Herald, and confirmed by new and very record acts of formal procription, all show that the .kministration is resolved that STE runs A. Dolmas shalt be defeated in Illinois, and'iltal the principle of Popular Sovereignty upon which he elands, and for which he has been nobly fighting, shall be repudiated. It is unnecessary to recall the merits of the controversy in llbacilli, to reiterate the points of the several speechea of Judge DOVOLAII, or to recapitulate the irresistible logic of his ar gument In favor of the principles which he Mementos. Suffice it, that he is the repre sentative of the orgardsotion of the Demo cratic party In that State—that of one hundred and three counties in 'Moots, one hundred bare pronounced to favor of his course Is A Senator in Congress—that all the machinery of the party is in the bands of his fiends—that no nominations have ever been made for Congress, for the Legislature, and for county officers, more regularly than those made by the Democrat/ who support him in Illinois— and, finally, that be traverses his State with the broad flag inscribed with Democratic prin ciples floating over his head. Ile has been eminently respectful to the President, and neirer ,belore in his life has he been more po tootle] in his championship of the immortal principles of onr creed. For this,and for this only, be is to be ostracised, and if possible, not only himself and his friends, but the entire State of Illinois, is to be eseatudcd from an participation in the Democratic' organize lion of the Union—rthat it, if thecae** of the ildm Ws/ration can hare it to. Certain redactions occur to ns in this con !motion. When Janie DUCILINAN de termined to abandon the principle upon which he was elected to the Presidency, and without which ho would still be ruralizing at Wheattand, when he allowed his personal enemies in the South to convince him that three sovereign States would secede from the Union if be did not agree to support this miserable Lecompton swindle, (whereas had he taken the JACKSON course and compelled these politicians to make their threats good, be would have sunk them deeper than plummet ever sounded,) he embarked in a war upon the principle that the will of the majority shall prevail. This vas a fearful mistake. Backed by the enormous patronage of an Administra tion which had four years to run, surrounded by an army of mercenaries in office and expect ing office, this extraordinary metamor phosis, startling as it was, was warmly con demned, and the good men and true who refased to sanction it, were excluded from the Presidential presence, and rated as the enemies of a man for whom the most of thorn had labored all the best years ot their life. It was this purchased support that indigent the President to perserere in his attack upon this principle in Kansas, that impelled bins to refuse all the appeals of his old and devoted Blends to allow them to 111 Mir from 111 m on thin Issue, and . that ult 6 mainly culminated In the Examen name, Boon to be repudiated by the popular voice in Kaniaa., Naturally enough, after the cad ex perience of more than a year and a half, it was expected that the Administration would pause in its extraordinary course, but this expeatatiori has been wofully disappoint ed. NOT CONTENT WITH WARRING UPON THE WILL OF THE MAJORITY IN KANSAS, THE ADMINISTRATION HAS NOW RESOLVED TO WAR UPON THE WILL OF THE MAJORITY IN IL LINOIS. All parties in Illinois are in favor of the principle of Popular Sovereignty, for Democrats and Republicans alike, through their representatives In Congress, have voted for It! and if ever two grand organizations have been equally committed to an Imposing principle, they are these organizations now ex , feting in Illinois. There it a singular stmt. laxity between the eases of Kansas and Illi nois, and, we regret to sib a singular stmt. laxity between the onset upon the will of the majority in the one maenad in the other. Illi nois, like Kansas, is overrun by Federal office holders. Illinois, like . Kansas, is sought to be debauched by the expectant' of Federal , patronage. Illinois, like Kansas, is to be made the theatre of diasensions which are to spread over the entire Union. As in Kansas, so in Illinois, the people have no power save that which the ballet glees them. There, as in the Territory washed by the waters of the Missouri, the great truth is to triumph that the will of the majority Is stronger than the power of the President. But not this only. The Administration have not merely re solved.to transfer the battle for Popular Sove reignty from Kansas to Illinois, but they have also resolved to illustrate the sublime idea of w localizing" the Kansas question in that State. And how is It to be o localized I " What will the Democratic party of Pennsylvania say of the idea, that because Judge Dorn)." represents the regular organization of the party, and because be stands unflinchingly by the principles of that party, therefore he is to be denied membership in it, and ho and his friends are to be given over as heretical Nay, what will every Democratic organization in every State of this Union say to this extraor dinary position I Will not the attempt to sg localize" this quarrel spread it over the en tire surface of the North and the South I Does not this Administration, by its early, formal, as Well as its very late recognition of the Leeompton principle in Illinois, thereby Telma it advance every Democrat from the support of every nomination made under the auspices :of that Admtsietr'altonl For, if Judge DUMAS is wrong in Illinois, the n no regular Democratlo nomination elsewhere Is right. If representing, as be does, the over whelming majority of the Democratic party in Illinois, and holding In his hands, as a sacred trust, the fundamental principle of the Democratic party—if he is wrong, how can they be right who reject the principle and possess tee tertifileffelt?

The low est estimate which has been made of these t,ro items is $8,565,885.87. In addition to the ex penditures thus provided for, there is abalmice of old appropriationS applicable to the pre sent year, stated by the Secretary of the Trea sury in his annual report, to be $16,686,688.35. So that the authorized expenditures of the Government, for the existing year; amount to over $100,000,000, although no doubt a bal ance corresponding to that brought forward from the last, will remain unexpended at the otos° of the present, year. The receipts for the first three quarters of the fiscal year ending June 80,1858, exclusive of the sums obtained by the issue of treasury notes, were $36,026,013.16. The expendi tures for the same period were $58,854,807.18. If we estimate the expenditures and receipts of tho fourth quarter at a sum equal to Num of the third, the result would be as . follows ; Expenditnres, $78,834,807.18; receipts, $44,- 025,018.16,—a deficit of over $80,000,000 in a single year. The only present remedy for this distressing condition of the National Pi llllLlCCO—loatm—has been freely resorted to. During the third and fourth quarters $20,- 000,00 of treasury notes were issued, and 1 there is little doubt that the Government, will require the whole of the new lean authorized by Congress. . The importance pf this subject will inevitably secure for lithe close atten tion of the whole country at an early day, and earnest endeavors will be made to devise a method of equaDzinzthe_nationaliaceletaLami -aknneaemenla, — eltber by increasing the former or diminishing the latter, or probably by aim leg to do both. It is true that, within the past month or two, there have been some Indica tions of irevival in business, and an increase is the receipts from customs, but the weekly atatemente show a constant diminution in the Treasury balance, gave when'it Is replenished by loans, and nearly two dollars are expended for every one received. Unless a very re markable improvement takes place before the next session of Congress, a modification of the Tariff will become inevitable, and the dis cussion of the deltas of such an important measure will no doubt enter largely into its proceedings. We hope that in this struggle Pennsylvania interests will receive the Wen. lion they deserve. • The facts herein set forth sufficiently indi cate that something must be done to increase the FeddMl revenues at the earliest moment; and in taking this unavoidable remedial step; it is no leas clear that the most liberal en couragement should be extended to American industry. Not only is the Government :nth- Ing into bankruptcy, with no hope of a speedy change for the better by the natural course of events, bat in every part of our State and coun try labor is unemployed, and almost In de spair. A recent visit to the interior of Pennsylva nia has convinced us that the worst accounts of destitution among the sons of toil have not been exaggerated. Tho best hands can be had at fifty cents aday in the harvest field, and those who last year easily earned a dollar and a halt per diem aro now glad to work for ono-third the amount. Meanwhile, in the de partments of skilled labor everything is dull. Nanufacturena are compelled to reduce their force or to suspend operations entirely. Fur nacoa are closed, forges stand still, the coal trade is stagnated, and general apathy pre vails. Those who have capital refuse to invest it until something is done to stimulate busi ness. Those who have no capital aro in the greatest uncertainty as to the future. Wo do not atop to canvass tho causes of this condition of things. The necessity is imminent and immediate, and should bo met by Instant action. Wo know that the theory of individual enterprise, in all such cases as the present, is generality the best. Govern ment cannot expect bo expected to provide every man a livelihood. But an extreme and exaptional MO like the present requires ex• ceptional and vigorous action. Our people have passed through a year of unexampled. suffering. Great fortunes have melted away in an hour, and the rich man of yesterday is to. day abject and poor. A system of the most stringent economy has failed to • relieve the public distress. Millions are in need of work (and that is bread) who have always been eco nomical and never wastet)ll. There seems to us but one way to awaken tho dormant ener gies of our people and to quicken the sluggish vitslitfes of trade. Tho Government wants money to conduct its operations and to pay its debts. Let this be raised by such a revenue law as will extend the amplest encouragement to manufactures, and thus attract capital once more from its hiding-places, and feed the thousands who at this moment barely con trive to eke out a miserable existence. It is to be regretted that the President did not, last December, anticipate the present extra ordinary condition of the public finances by reiterating in his message his cherished views on the general subject of incidental protection ; but the time is at hand when action is de manded by the people, and ought to be, and will be, granted by their servants. /MAT'S %MR NOTE NITPORTER.—This useful weekly has Just been received, and is, if anything, even an Improvement upon the former numbers.

THE P THE FRAZER RIVER IiOLD MINES The documentary history of the new gold mines, as contained in the correspondence be- tween Governor. DOUGLAS, of Vancouver's Island, and the British 'Colonial Secretary has been pnblishect It gives . it graphic sketch of the rise and progress of thp gold excitement, as well of the fate of the attempts of the for mer to levy exactions upon the American Miners. 'mg ago as April, 1866, it was reported th -ow $lO to $4O Imo daily earned by mine At the diggings. But the gold product for a t';' , 3 increased very slowly on account of the hostile. and jealotks feelings of the Indians. ; The entrance Into the country of any Ame ricans was strictly prohibited by theth, and the few who gained admittance did so by re sorting to the artifice of denying and conceal ing their nationality. British subjects did not fare a great deal better, for pot unfrequently their labors were interrupted, and they were quietly but firmly thrust aside from any pro ductive deposits they .discovered, and their places taken by the swarthy sons of the forest. Gradually, however, as reports of the richness of the mines were circulated, the number of white minors has so greatly increased that they aro willing to rely upon self-protectionagainst hostilities. Meanwhile, Governor DOUGLAS has been nervously anxious to reap some immediate ad vantages (tom the discovery for his Govern ment. In December, 1857, he issued a pro clamation prohibiting all gold digging by per sons who bad not taken Out licenses, for which he proposed to charge V?, 40 per month. By January, 1858, he bad advanced the price of licenses to SE. per month— By April be learned that parties of American miners had gone upon the gold fields and worked them, without obtaining licenses, and be concluded to, wait instructions from the home Government before he. sent a foyee, to dellee6 this license tax; but as Mr. livi:*ais, the Colonial Secretary, is averse to this ittipo salon, It will no tiottilt be finally abandoned - aa• soon as Governor Dermas hears from London We find, however, by the very late California news, that the taxis levied, wherever It possi bly can be, on passengers who go up the river by Victoria. When steamboats contain men who bavo not taken out their license they are Stopped by the British corvette Satellite, and the delinquents compelled to obtain their un- der penalty of being pat on shore by the tish marines. As the matter stands, the home Government reserves the right to navigate Frazer's, river as a question for its own dis ; cession, and .Governor DOIMLAS must busy himself In devising the best measures be can for levying tribute upon refractory misers. One of his most sensible projects is suggested in his letter of Slay, in which he proposes to exact import duties upon all supplies brought into the country. The late arrival from gaiifornia brings many particulars confirming the rumors of tho rich- uess of the mines. Not a single unfavorable report on this subject has reached San Fran cisco. The value of property in the British towns has increased with wonderful ratidity. The miners, however, have many difficulties to contend with. The Indians aro still very troublesome. Parties are frequently attacked. Sometimes the Indians, and sornotimu3 the whites, aro worsted in theme ncounterf. As the former aro becoming very much emited, serious difficulties may bo apprehended. The mining season, too, is limited, supplies are scarce, the climate rigorous, and great niffer tugs and hardships undoubtedly await miuy of the eager gold-seekers.

Since then, an evening paper hes been endeavoring to impress upon the otimmu nity the propriety of appointing a "merrier ti a . titotive ;" but nil the anggestiona to that effect have apparently bad no influence upon the Mayor. The feet is that the creation of the first cane won indispensable, being called .for by the peculiar skill requisite for the detection of incendiaries; but in a city, having a detective. terse, composed of twelve gentleiteneupposed to be experienced in police business, the Idea of taking cue 'of their number, instAed of all, to arrest a murderer, is, we are Inclin et to think, nonsensical. The North American has thefollowing pointed remarks upon the subject, while alluding to Dickson, the alleged murderer of Peter Miller : • • . In relation to the escape of the murderer in this two, one of tho afternoon papers suggests that a " murder detective" ho appointed, : whose entire attention shall ha given to the investigation of such oases This we consider slightly absurd, on with a gond detective polka there is no occasion for speoialities of any sort. There is no more need of 4 " murder detective " than of adetective to mvtoll that class of gentry who make war upon henroosts or despoil the money-drawers of corner groceries. If the Mayor wore to appoint a mar• der detective, he would next day be called upon, to detail another " dead head " to devote his whole attention to plokpookete, and another to hotel thieves, The Betiding Season.—Tiro learn that there is some little movement in real estate, an 4 we notice in some quarters quite a number of now and substantial improvements in progress, especially In the city subqrbs.

The Franklin intiitute.—An exhibition of American manufactures by the Franklin Institute will take plane In this city in November next, the institute having obtained the am of the State armory, at Sixteenth and Filbert streets. The dimensions of the buildings are such as to givo room for a grand display. each as the Franklin Institute has not been able to give slum tho destruction of the Museum, for want of a suitable building. Though the location is not in a cen tral position, the passenger railways will afford facilities far reaching it from all sections of the city. The Harvest.—The farmers adjoining this oily, es well us theta, in Docks, Montgomery, Ches ter, and Delaware counties, have completed the harvesting of their wheat—a majority of them having already aeoured their oils. The corn ornp in moat sentiene is backward, but .should the weather continue fine there is every prosneet of a good yield.

A terrible ease of sell:destruction occurred on the Pennsylvania R•tilroad on Friday.
