Distrustful.
Tis past tlie hour of mitlnigbt. Tho
golden god of day, who yesterday drove
iU emblazoned chariot through tho heavens
has ceased shining upon the earth, and a
black pall reigns over the lower section of
our ci'y. Nought is heard save tho dis
tant murmurings of carts, or tho step of
tho melancholy bill poster, as he pursues
his homeward way. Suddenly a sound
breaks tho stillness of the night ; it is the
sweet voico of Fredrick Villiani,calling in
plaintive tones upon his beloved Florence
Amelia :
"Throw open the lattice, love, and look
down upon the casement; for I, your own
Frederick, is here."
'What brings thee, love, at this time of
night, when all is still and gloomy?"
"I come to offer thee my heart. On
my soul I lovo thee truly, wildly, pass
ionately love thee. Dost thou reciprocate?'
Tho maiden blushed as she hesitated.
"Alt !" ciied he ; and the faco of our
hero lit up with a sardonic smile, "thou
lovost another ?"
"No ! no 1'' cried Florence.
"Then why not rush to his bosom that
is bursting to receive thee "
'Because," replied the innocent but (-till
trembling damsel, ''because, Bill, I'm
afraid you're blowiu.''
Dona i.no a IIattei: An individual
purchased a hat in a shop kept by a trades
man by the name of Do"iou. The article
wui cot in the absenco of tho proprietor
aud tho purchaser left tho shop, entirely
forgetting (by miuako of course,) to pay
for the ai'. rcsaid "tilo." The tradesman,
upon healing the facts, started after him,
in hot pursjit of the delinquent. Upon
overhauling him, the following iccnc oc
curred :
'See here sir, I viih to speak with you."
1 Mow on, '
l'I am Dogion, the hatter."
'That's my fix."
"I tell you I tun Do'lgion, the hatter."
"o ant I, I m dodgin' tho hatter, too
and very likely wc nre both of us dodgin,
the same chan.''
ho scene ended with a "strikinc" tab-
leau, in which Mr. Diddler found himself
considerably "mixed up" with Dogion the
hatter."

"Boy," said ho, "bring mc a glass of
that beverage."
When ho consumed tho coolling draught
he called tho boy again.
"Boy, what was my last remark t"
"Why, you ordered a julep."

Jlr, Prick, of tho ".Mittouian," some
three weeks since, published a malicious
slander upon Ex-President Buchanan, and
when we politely asked him to "vindicate
the truth of history," by publishing ''a
truthful biography of Mr. Buchanan,"from
a much abler pen than his own, Hon. Y.
W. Sl'ATON, and a thousand times more
respectable republican journal than tho
Milloaiun, the National JntdUgencr,
ho lacked the magnanimity of even giving
the injured parties a chance of redress, as
will bo seen by tho correspondence here
unto annexed. We then applied to Col.
PuitDY, of tho "Northumberland comity
Democrat" one of tho ablest and best
Democratio journals in tho State, and
that gentleman last week promptly gave it
a conspicuous publication. It will bo ob
served that our letter to Mr. Prick, dated
Juno 3d, tho only introduction then inten
ded, was couched in mild nud decorous
language, but when he acted uugcntleman

by his own party as a public libeller) we
made tho next note Krst below, a littlo
more salty, all of which is f-ubmittcd to the

This is decidedly tho coolest thing on

greets any emanation of "his great mind"
by tho American pcoplo takes a queer way
of expressing itself. His name is held in

The Retiring President.
about to rctjre lrom til0 administration of
the (jovcrmncut of the United States has
lived in eventful times and performed a
conspicuous part on the stago of public
events. No incumbent of tho liic'ic.t of
fice in tho gift of the people has been more
honored and none deserves to bo held iu
no grateful remeiubranco for the benefits
he has actually conferred upon tho conn-
tfJ for tlj0 imp,,lsos L givcu tQ om.
commerce and manufactures, for tho firm-
noss with which ho has repelled tho ng
grosion upon our righta by foreign nations,
and for the skill with which he has often
distangled the web of difficulties iu which
our domestic affairs havo been involved by
wars of parties aud the conflicts of sec-
tions with each other,
Mr. Buchanan has united the advanta-
ges of a clear and vigorous understanding
and. thorough information with a large ex-
tiblc portions, both at homo aud abroad.
His purposes have been uniformly pacific
and liberal, embracing the interests of the
whole country. In one of tho earliest
speeches which ho made in the House of
Repri'.-eutitives. tho subject under cousid
cration being the tariff on imports he said:
"It I know tnyselt, I am a politician
noitlivr of the East nor of the West, of
-N'01'1' "oro1' iJout1'- 1 therefore
shall forever avoid any expressions, tho
. , ..ft 1 . .

mencement of his Congressional career,
and always has been in favor of tho acqui
sition of Cuba. Ho advocated iu lbUS
Gen. Jackson's election to tho Presidency,
aud sustained most of las measures. Du
ring hi-i administration he was placed at
tho head of the Judiciary Committee iu
the House of Rcprcscutativcs; and being
appointed one of tho managers to conduct
tho prosecution of Judge Peck, made iu
that case a most able and eloquent argu
ment. In 1831 Gcu. Jackson appointed
him Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary to St. Petersburg, where
he negotiated a treaty of great valuo to
our commerce aud navigation in the Baltic
and Black Seas. On his return from
Russia, in 1833, ho was elected to a scat
in tho United States Senate. Iu 1835 the
reception of abolition petitions had become
a subject of angry controversy between tho
North and South His idea was that tho
petitions should bo received, but there
should be a distiuct and positive declaration
on tho part of Congress, that it had no
power to legislate ou tho subject of slavery
lie desired to leave it, ho said, whero the
Constitution had lelt it, to tho blatcs them
selves. On this subject his course has
been uniform, and ho has ever manifested
an unflinching determination to maintain
tho rights and institutions of the South
against all opposition, Uo was among the
earliest of tho Senators to urgo tho recog
nition of the independence of Texas and
her admission into the Union. He main
tained tho justico of tho claims of Ameri
can citizens for indemnity against tho
French Government, reviewing tho wholo
mbject with masterly ability.
On Van Duron's accession to tho Presi
dency ho supportedjiis great measure of
an inucpenucnt. Treasury. JUunng Mr.
Tyler 8 administration ho successfully ad
vocated tho veto power of President under
tho Constitution against Mr. Clay's efforts

claims of tho two Governments to tho

Mexican war liuclianau was the adviser of
the President, and at its conclusion aided
him with his counsels in adjusting the diffi
cult question of boundaries between tho
two countries. While in Mr. Polk's Cab

norm to tue l'acino ocean, with a view to
quiet the agitation of tho slavery question;
but the proposition was voted down when
offered to Congress. The compromise
measures of 1650 received his approval
and advocacy. When Mr. Pierce succeed
ed to tho Presidency, ho appointed Mr.
liucnauan Ambassador to tho Uourt of St.
James, and entrusted him with the settle
ment of the complicated Central American
question. In lb50 he returned homo, and
in tho month of June of that year, was

Secretary Cameron VS. Gov.
Curtin.
There seems to bo a difficlty between
Secretary of War, Simon Cameron, at
Washington, and Governor Andy Curtin,
at Harrisburg. Tho former accepted two
Philadelphia regiments Col. Small's and
Einstein's after they had been rejected
by the latter, and against the persevering
efforts of Curtin to exclude them from the
service. This action on the part of Secre
tary Cameron, is justly regarded as a se
vere and merited rebuke of the mean and
petty favoritism that has marked Curtin's
action from the beginning, and brought so
much disgrace upou our State. Theso
regiments were anion,

Our' Ministors Abroad.
Our country has probably never beforo
been represented abroad by such a class of
Ministers as have been sent out under tho
Administration of Mr. Lincoln. Anson
Burlingamc, appointed Minister to Austria,
has visited Vienna and been rejected by
that Government, because of the conspic
uous part which ho took in the American
Congress in favor of the recognition of tho
Italian Uovolutionists. Austria fully re
cognizes the right of our Government to
put dowu the great rebellion at tho South,
but ca'ls for a more prudent diplomat and
statesman than Mr. Burlingamc.
Mr. Cassius M. Clay was sent to St. Pe
tersburg, llussia, but ou his arrival at
Loudon he concluded that Mr. Adams
would bo unequal to the great task of en
lightening tho English Government on
American complications, and volunteered
to give Her Brittanio Majesty a little touch
of his own important opinions through the
London limes, to which that journal re
plies, questioning his premises and ridicul
ing his attempted interference.
Mr. Sanford, bound for Belgium, or at
all events ordered to go there, stops to get
his washing and ironing dono in Paris,aud
makes au invasion upou the duties of Mr.
William L. Dayton, by attempting to rep
resent the interests of the United States at
tho Tulleries of France.
Mr. Carl Schurz, a rcfugeo from one of
tho European powers, will of course do us
very littlo credit at Spain, und may prob
ably be dismissed. Mr. Sanford, Minister
to Belgium, has had a littlo exnerieneo in

was perpetrated after Us appointment by
President Lincoln adds inaguitudo to his
