Columbia. DcmocrAttha inaugural address
p i . t 11 . i it
or Gov. 1 acker, and wo call to i tho es- j
pecial ntlcntion of ourroadcrs. It is short
and plain and-pointed. It is a document
to reach tho hearts and understandings of
tlio icorpIt!. On tpicstions of Stato policy
it is sound and couscrvttivo ; and wo be
lievo agrees in sentiment with -the great
mass of the citizens of tho commonwealth

Wo hope that ho In conjunction with tho
Xegislaturo will fairly endeavor to carry
them nut wo aro sure if they do, they
will bavo iho warm and hearty support not
only of. tho party, bnt of tho people. Gov.
Packer .should remember, however, that
bo -wlio goes into office with so larjjo a
popular majority requires steadier footing
to keep his balance, than the man who se
cures it by iho skin of his tettb. There is
need to be circumspect and frank, and
above all to live up to tho doctrines of
Stato -polioy promulgated in his initiatory
address,
Tho administration is now in the hands
of the democracy tho party that can suc
ceed and has succeeded ; and at ils head
aro somo of the ablest and purest men in
ALvs stato. Wo heartily wish them the perfect-success
which wo know, it will bo their
ambition to deserve.

The Fro Stato I.egislatuic of Kansas
on the the receipt of President Buchan
an's Message, passed the following reso
lution ;
"Resolved, That Jaraios Buchanan,
Prcsidrnt of the United States, be entitled
to the name of Muggins ; and that a cony
of this resolution be sent to him. 'J he
resolution passed amid deafening cheers."
Tho Free State Iegistiitors, if all their
ngcmiity had been directed to damaging
their own cause, could have found no
more sure method of securing that result
Jhan by iho use of such disrcspoetl'ul
anguagc towards tho Chief Magistrate fcf
the nation. Billingsgate is tho alterna
tive for argument only when the cause
for which it is employed is too weak to
be bolstered by sound logic, or when, as
is usually the case, the logicians are from
Alsatla and tho five Points. President
Buchanan cannot be injured by such pu
ny attcinpts,nor is it likely ho would have
any other feeling than a proper contempt
far those who attack him with such scur
rility, should ho over bo apprised of it.
But the country will resont the insult for
lim. He luisbecii endorsed by tho peo
ple of tho Union as the most fit man in
the Union for its highest office ; and he
will be supported in tho position in which
he has been placed, despite the black
guardism of any person or class of per
sons. Tho Pleasure of Paying Cohts
Wo have no higher enjoyment than to

down in a bed of nettles as to have men
como to us and ask for money when we

have recently been "working for nothing
"anil rinding ourselves." Thousands of
dollars arc due us in smaJl sums that it
would'hurt no :one to pay, and yet if we
could get them together it would enable
us to satisfy every one to whom wo are
indebted.
