Treason to Democracy's Setkorial.
Offence.
' The doctrine that a Preiddentelented by the
Democratic party can do' nothing':Whicli, in
the eyes of a Dent6eint, sl ouldbe regarded aa,
wrong, is purely sectional in its character. It
is enforced only in States north of Mason &
Dixon's: line. The Representatives of the
Democracy .of the-slave States -express the
willonOdvopate the.real ; or supposed into
restii oftheir ismiltituents, without fear, favor,
riiiiffSetioriT and tlieitei boldly attack the re
commendations; of a President of their own
party as' of the - . Opposition; wberiever they
disagree with .
,The perils of excoinmu
nie4tinit,liieie,Ver: enfOrcedagainst them, no
- rtiatter",liniv la nguage or decided
their autitgorittim. The, guillotine confines its
operations, to Northern , States alone.
A. remarkable proof of this was given at the
last session; :when, Democrats of the North
Sere prinforibed for opposing the President's
'recommendation - 3°in regard to Lecompton, at
-the'same'tirae 'that Democrats from the South
were greete,d elieriehed, not Withstanding
Ope,nlY-,avowed *4bn : ter hostility to the
cOuree-,of- Mr. Buounnert . in regard .to the ar
rest ofthe filibusters. And the Congressional
: proceedings of lastweek afford still more re
markable evidence of the sectionaisharaeter
of this despotic' doctrine of , Presidential infal
libility'.,'lt iti well knOwn that Mr. Beenexert
„ ,
ia Warinly in favor of a Pantile . Railroad. He
pledged himself to !nipper', that measure in ad
vance of, his . electiOn,, by his letter of 1856,
to the Democracy of-California, He, warmly
recommended it in his lust annual message.
'The subject was under conaideration.for seve

;it was finally decided, perhaps not unwisely,
;to amend the whole bill, by confining it to a

On another question of still greater imimrt
i
Ince, a similar disposition to disregard the
Wishes of the i i reeident has been exhibited by
the Atliresentatlies of the Democracy of the
SOntlf. the' President and Secretary
Oenn differed as to the mode in whieh impost du
ties Should be levle44 they united in apprising
congress - of the necessity of some action on
"the tariff, at the present Session, by which
the' latetrof duties' Would be,hicreased. He
ver in the history, of our country did the con
ditien of the Treasury more imperiously de-
Mind somesucli legislation. Action on this
'matter waif postponed from time to time, until
•lest Saturday, when a caucus of the Democra
tie Senators was called, at which - Hr. Hoarse,
of yirginia, offered a resolution declaring it
ilmxpedient• to Change the tariff •at all at
the present session. In vain did Mr. finnan.
`plead the -insufficiency, of the revenue, and
,the .positive, necessity. of nu increase of the
impost ,duties-in vain did he speak of the
prostrated condition, of the _industrial inte
rests, and the rapid increase of the public
dobt.• Hie sithstitute was, voted down, and
:Kr; Hearne's 'resolution, was adopted by a
l4rge majority of those present. - The counsels
of both the President and the Secretary of the
Treaaury :Were rejected. The Administration
Senators ignored and overslaughed the Ad--
Ministration.. *9 deeply regret this action.
It is unfortunate ; and we are extremely sorry
that-Mr: Boonaitait's views upon this question
not prevail. - lt,fs a matter that he should
haVe deeply at heart; and be perhaps hag; for
.n:o'Triffitileptean 4esire to See such acontinued
VECralti• of expenditures over receipts as has
:been -witnessed during the last year. But
where are the thunders of his organs ? Where
• 7
are the threats.of kis bravadoes? Wtiere are
the knives of hie executioners?
The. word of the President is no more
mighty with a tionthern Democrat th i au the
word of thettinibiest Representative; and he
does not, and not, exhibit against them
ono particle Of ,the fiendish malignity he dis
:Playa against Northern recusants.. Submis
:Edon farm the Dethooracy of the North alone.

Punch's Last and Worst
Punch continues his deadly-lively efforts at
pictorial faCetiousness. The last number, da
ted January 16th, just received by the Arabia,
has one of these curious imitations of antece
dent wit. It is a whole-page wood cut, enti
tled "Reform Snap-Dragon," (a Obriatmas
dish, consisting of raisins covered wiOtbrandy,
which is set on fire), with four haggard-looking
creatures grouped around the table, each put-
Eng hia band into the dish, marked REPOaM,
and trying to grab as much as possible, with
least damage to himself from the blue flames.
'The individuals are Lord Dnal#, Lord Joan,
Masan, Mr. DISRAELI, and Mr. JOHN BRIGHT.
We notice this caricature with the design of
pointing it ont as decidedly the worst political
'sketch over issued by Punch. Even the por
traits are scarcely to be recognised. Sic tran

Haydn's Oratorio of the Setter' Words.
• To-morrow evening, at Concert Hall, the above--
named composition will be' performed—for the
first time in this country, it Is said.
- Sonia of SoSor Ratfelin's Seared Music will be
introduoed. The programme exhibits a strange
medley. Haydn's Sacred Oratorio is to bo pre
ceded, by Rossini's overture to Semiramis. Then
follow Haydn and Raffelln—four compositions by
the first and aim by' the latter. Moreover, Miss
Etchings will introduce Handel's "Angels ever
bright and fair," which she 'always sings admira
bly. The Coneert—between - Haydn, Harelip, and
Handel—has numerous points ofattraction; Dui it
Is a Melange, and should have been announced as
snob._ Mr. Thunder and Mr. Bonnewits will play
the organ, and the professional singers will be
Miss Etchings, hfsearrey, and Bolster, with
Messrs. Rohr, ho. We hare seldom seen a less
communicative programme. It is full of mystery.
Thus a duet will be sang by a Young Lady Ama
teur and Miss McCaffrey;'' a second •duet ' by
"Miss Richings and another Artist;'' a tersetto
and a quartette. in which'' , another Artist" also
Is to figure. All this areotation of mystery is non
sensical.: The programme is attractive enough,
however, to draw a full house.

: _Dnringthiii ttiersoaptalli Cannon maintaimed his
position on the tipper desk, neer Ahorwheelhouse;
and directed the preparation of the ,boats for the
nein° of the passengers. generality speaking, the
passengers • were ecitisposedy though . the saloon
they bad just left, most of them with only their
night clothing, were in flames, and took refuge in
the boats which were forward and aft to receive
them. Mr. H. Orapon, of Wilmington, N. 0 , and
his wife and infant were in one of the state teems,
the egresi from which through the 'door had been
entirely out off by the' flames. Ile first. got out
through the window to the desk, and then' BS .
dated hia wife and child. When be had reach
ed the lower dear he asked Ms wife to hand him
the child, but, yritb d tine mother's affection,
she held It to her own boort, and only Cohsented
to yield it to the tether after She bad got to the
lower dear. Mr. 0. they ibttw the infant over
board, and, quick as thought, sprang into the
water, and caught it in his arms. Mrs. 0. fol.
lowed, and all three were then In the water. For
tunately, one of the boats was under the guard,
and, after be had safely placed them in the boat,
got in hliuself. It is said by those who wore yuo•
sent that the infant through all did not shriek or
cry. Before they had reached the boat; Captain
Henry Fitzgerald, one of the Passengers, prompted
by a noble impulse , plunged into the water to aid
in the rescue of the mother and child.
There were seven ladies on board the boat, all
of whom barely escaped to the small boats In their
night clothes:, not having nn opportunity to get
even, their shoes and stockings. The exception
was a lady whose nervous condition would not al
low her to sleep, and she was in full dress, as she
had not gone to bed.
It is believed that the passenger who was burnt
up—the Rev. Mr. Curtis, of S. o.—was deaf and
could not hear the noise and stir of the few mo
ments left the passengers to escape after the alarm
had been spread. Ile was the principal of a col
lege at Chester, 8.0., and is supposed - to have
died of suffocation., The colored steward, Isaiah
Walters, was not seen, though other of the stew
ards went to the apartment where he staid several
_times for blankets, in which to wrap the ladies who
had lost all their clothing.
The hull of the steamer burnt to the water's edge,
and it is supposed abe sunk; as nothing was seen of
'her after the fog cleared away.
No baggage, freight,or anything of value what-
ever, was saved. The United States mail for Nor
folk was also destroyed.
It was said that Adams & Co.'s Express lose by
this catastrophe somewhere in the neighborhood
of $7,000. But we understand by a fortunate
accident they were prevented from losing $209,-
000 (lover funds, that did not get on board
in time, and consequently •went down in the
steamer Georgia.
Captaip Cannon, tho commander of the North
Carolina, had $3OO of his own funds in his state
room, which ho had not time to save. So precipi
tate, in fact, was the retreat that no time was to
spare to save anything whatever, and Mr. Parks,
the purser of the boat, lost all the passage money,
Many of the passengers aro now in Norfolk and

movement was making to afford them assistance
to reach their homes. The following is the

[Brom the New Haven Journal.]
Monday, about three o'clock A. M., the exten
sive bolt factory of the Plant Manufacturing Com
pany. at Plantsville, on the Canal Railroad, was
destroyed by fire. The buildings were of wood,
and were very epaoions, employing from eighty to
One hundred and fifty men. It is apparent that
they were set on fire, as the flames were discovered
breaking out at eeveral distinct places. The
whole establishment was burned, except a small
building used as a coal-house, and so Intense was
the heat, that a trooper's shop on the other side of
the railway track, and twenty feet from the fac
tory, was sot on fire by it, and destroyed.
All the books and papers of the company, ex
cept a small order-booky were saved, as well as
the furniture in the directors' room, and many
manufactured goods. The, safe was found red hot
atter the fire, but $4OO in bills, whioh were in it,
Were found in good condition. The company was
intured to the amount of $64,000, at Friable &
Wilson's agency, in this city. The insurance is
divided among no lees than thirty offices.
