(Jr- Our tiisnj Kitchii, of the Washington
Uiiian, senJa as two cuirt of the "Weekly
I'niun and Congressional Suppliinent. They
both come directed to the Columbia democrat,
which we supiiose to be a mistake in the pick
ing ddpirtment. We shall be s.ilisfied w iln one
copy, havi.ig no desire to tax his kindness be
yond what u our due.
& Will Mr. Huldon, ol New York, remit ua
tha promised uutnbei of "Hulden's Dollar Mag
azint, lor haiidsoinely bound, and tha ac
coinjunyiii p jrtrait of Mun. Horace Greeley ?"
It was t'i have been mtiUd, to (hose entitled to
receive it, about the 15th of January, and at we
are am nig those, we now present our claims nd
hope they will bt duly honored.
A Trclly Tair,
" lVim Rtguti fall out, c."
Accerding to the la'est idi'ce frotn Harrisburg,
there tppeari to be trouble in tha Federal wig
wam. Tbe "billa" which wore left unaignei at
the adjownaent of tha Lctjislaiuru by Governor
Shuak; and which by Cnnjtitutional provmon,
hould bavs been ra'jj-aed by tha then acting
Garnor, W. Y. Johnston, it the opening ot the
tttsion, or within throe iay ; aopeir to have giv
n occaiion fot tha "dro up." Gov. Johnston
andouatediy thought to icre. i himself from res
poniibility by a "inauteriy inicuvity."
Noun man denies or doubtg the "bargain
and sale" beewun thwe two conscientious gen
tlemen, Johnston and Cooper, in rcrd to the
Gubernatorial chair and the U. S. Senitorahip.
For Jims unaccountable reason, Johnson when
lure of hi part of the spoil, abandoned Cooper to
his fate, and in fact rather used his influence a
gainst him. The administration sustained in this
thing a defeat, and Mr. Suiutor Cuopor having
nothing either to hope or to fear from Mr. Gover
nor Johnston, cuts loose and gives his excellency
a few "dis" in the short ribs upon the constitu
tional approval of "thoe Bills."
The G ivernor is in a tight pUce. The friends.
of Mr. Cmiper will rgird him with a very ques
tinnabla "Phi. ;" and the Meredith p.iity are not
lufliciently stronij to bi much importance. When
a OMn preaches Tariff, true soil, and such matters,
with which hn has nothing under the sun to do, in
Older to please all iwrties and gain power; who
can pity him when they see him "perplexed in
the extreme ."'
Botts failed in heading Capt. Tyler, fait Coop
er hat certainly bowed his excellency W. F.
Johnston. Among them 3e it It is a family
quarrel, ind to us al Mr. Bauti would saj, "it's
to eonjftq'iince."
The Spirit of Dtmotraty.
It is of greit importance that we should pres
erve the spirit as well as the name of Democracy,
tha,t our institutions and practices shall not do
lne'ata into the formalities nf the monarchist or
tit loosf.nnssiof the deniazogn It is well to
look b-ick to the spirit and pnritv cf th Fathers
of our lailh, and trace snew their activn and ar
dent devotion to every put pose that separated us
from the dependency of the Old world and tended
to abolish from amongst us the vertices of arbi
trary and unnatural right It has been the boast
01 cur government, that our shores are open to the
oppressed of every nation and language, and that
all who subscribed to Ihe popular and ennobling
d.ictrines ol the constitution, should find protec
tion and encouragement under the shield nf our
national honor. Here, t-o, (hit faith for which
the martyrs suffered is free ss the merry that is
promiied tn him who acre pt of the requ rements
of eur Divine preceptor, and none shall have
power to say 'o bie'r-n'her, thou sha'l adopt my
creed, which is alone necessary to thv salvation.

The Gold Do! In.
Mr. McKay has inlroduced a bill into the
House of Representatives l;i authoiu the coin
age of one dollar gold pieces at thu mint, which
will pais, we lvpe, ntmine tontradwente.
With the editors ot the Globe, wo go lor gold
coin, for the goli dollar, and for golden opinions,
could wa bo fortunate enough to win them.
That the gold dollar should timi objectors among
th .se who are interested in niaint a.trn. a sound,
tangible, metallic, unfluctuating and non-depreciating
currency, uurpriics ui much ; but there are,
it Seems, some who, bleat with microscopic pow
er of vision, ptrccive, or think they perceive,
obstacle. and i.iconvinioncch ihe gold dollar
would be ton jinall, might be lost, or might be
paid away in the dark, or by the blind for a rive-
cent piece Well, this might all happen often ; j
and we venture to assort that, allowing for all -sorts
of accidents and mischances, there would not
bo lost in ten years as large a sum with the gold
dollar as there is lust with the paper dollar annu
ally. But if provision is to be made against every
possibility ot losing money, we know but one way
ol coming at it effectually that is, never to have
ny-
A writer in the Union, in order to obviate cer-
tain objections to Ihe gold doll.r, proposes to coin
u wnn a noie in tne centre. We do not see the
necessity ot this. In some parts of South Ameri
ca gold dollars are very abundant, and are found
lo he very convenient ; but they have no hob; in
them They are thin, and present nearly double
Ihe surface. Diobahly, that a rive-cetit piece does.
Why not com them o here, if it is desirable that
they should be broadei than the half dime? But
we care nothing about the siz, or the shape, or
the cifigv, or the milling. Give us the gold dol
lar, and be it &r: or thin, broad or narrow, with
or without the hole, we will give it a hearty wel

This has always been the case, either through
a farewell address or by the last Annual Message.
But it is not the length of this document which
makes" each particular hair stand upright" upon
the heads of whig Editors. The Ghost of the
"American System" troubles their sleep. Like
the Ghost of Hanguo it will not down, and even
at the Election of Taylor the "amen," stuck in
their throats.
Like John Smith's "lamiliar spirit" it dogs
them at every step, and no turning or twisting or
changing nf names ran throw it from the track.
If the doctrines of the Message be wrong let it be
shown. They invite and challenge discussion.
The last duty ol our able Executive has been faith
fully performed. Upon reading this document
the people can know the situation ot the country,
they can sne w hat has been done and what still re
mains to do." "Honor to whom honor, &c.!"
The Message is not thirty times as long as Gov
ernor Johnsons ; there ij in fact but little differ
ence, and yet that is in most excellent, good taste.
