For tha Journal.
MR. EDITOR
Two great parties have existed since the
formation of our Government; and they
have been so evenly balanced by popular in
fluence; that those in power will, if wise,
take great care lest they . fall. There
is an element mingled with both parties,
too pure to be influenced by a touch of the
old wand, and the cry of ' , stick to the par
ty." And when those with whom they
have been associated become too imbecile
or corrupt, to guide the destiny of our glo
rious republic, they cast their influence in
the opposite scale; and thus, they have,
from time to time, saved our civil institu•
tions from that deep corruption which ever
tends to ruin. All history verifies the fact
that either the weakness or wickedness of
all governments tends to give their oppo.
nonts that comparative strength, by which
they in their turn, are enabled to take the
r&n of government into their own hands.
And therefore it is, that we deem it both
fair and expedient that we should expose
that very wickednes i now practiced by our
present government, which is calculated
to rally those of all party names, who desire
that our Government shall be conducted in
subordination to the cause of humanity
and sound political economy.
It is obvious from the structure of our
mental powers, and accords with sound
philosophy and religion, that the social
compact system is Heaven's appointment
for the civil government of mnn. And
that this right can only be forfeited by
crime, or incapacity to perform the civil du
ties of life. It was u firm faith in the doc
trine of popular government, which impel
led our anoestors to leave their fatherland,
because they wtre denied those rights
which they inherited from their Creator,
and to brave difficulties and dangers too
appalling for humanity to meet, save from
that innate love of liberty, for which every
human being feels a consciousness in his
own breast.
This doctrine was so indelibly impressed
upon the minds of the fathers of our Re-
public, that, when they sat down to frame
a constitution for our Government, they
prefaced it by saying, "\Vo, the people of
the United States, &c. And the framers
of the Constitution of our own State, true
to the some principle, introduce it with,
"We, the people of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, ordain, and establish this
constitution for its government." And in
deed, the right of the people to frame their
o wn primary laws and regulationv, has
been held its the very essence of our civil
institutions, from the days of Washington
down to the darker days of Prosider.t
Pierce.
Yet, paradoxical, though it may seem,
there is in the human heart that love of po
wer, which ever struaes to denude the
people of their original birthright, as is oh
vious down the whole pathway of human
history, and which has been alarmingly
manifested during the administration of
Pierer, cod still more fearfully developed
by our present imbecile , hief Magistrate
and Chief Justice Taney, who, by un un
holy alliance, and in the loved name of de
mocracy, have made untiring nud painful
efforts to force upon the people of Kansas,
a constitution, repugnant to the highest
and holiest feelings of our nature, and re
pugnant to the oft-declared will of that
people; a constitution, by the adoption of
which, they would deny themselves the
right and the power to set bounds to Sla
very, that moral leprosy, which, contagion
like, has been sending its stealthy fibres
through all the ramifications of society,
the sure tendency of which is to degrade
our race, and to bring down upon us and
our institutions, the scorn and contempt of
all Christendom.
Since the days of Jeffreys, the Judiciary
has no where in Christendom suffered so
foul a stain from polluted hands as the Su
preme Court of the United States has,
from its Chief Justice, Taney, in the Ured
Scott case. Jeffreys sold to their friends,
in order that they might obtain the liberty
of those who were unjustly imprisoned.
But Taney went outside the case at issue
before the Court to declare, that millions of
human beings were not persons, rind Nen
tiled them with the brute creation, and de
Glared that they never had rights which
we were bound to respect. And so far as
his judicial power is concerned. he has con
signed a whole and numerous race of hu
man beings tr hortlestr, helpless and end
less bondage. A race, many of whose
skins are less sable than his own, end their
moral character are an 'honor, whilst his is

But James Buchanan, not content with
trampling upon all the laws of humanity,
financial distress of our suffering country,
When he came into power ho took charge
of an overflowing treasury. which he has
most extravagantly wasted upon corrupt
favorites employed to sustain his sinking
power. The treasury being exhausted,
his constant cry to Congress for millions
upon millions of the people's money, re
minds us of the exorbitant demands of
Charles I, for which he first lost his crown
and then his head. The Kansas policy of
the President has been no corrupt that out
of five Democratic cavernors senothere,
not one was found so degraded, or who had
so fur lost his sense of manhood, as to do
his dirty work, though great rewards
awaited them,
•And when he had employed all his pa
tronage and power for the production of
t hat disgraceful paper, called the Lecomp
ton Constitution, he sent with it to Con.
grass, his spernal and remarkable message
pleading for the admissi on of Kansas in
to the Union, loaded ,with Slavery, contrary
to the desire of four-fifths of the people of
that Territory.
But Congress, after the most painful
struggle against power and. patronage,
frowned it out of the House and declared
that hitherto Slavery may come, and no
further, and t hat here shall its proud waves
be stayed.
Buchanan snatched the staff held opt to
him by English, to break his fall, and aid
his tottering steps. And with anathemas
in his palpitating heart against poor suffer
ing Kansas, he declares that they shall not
be received into the Union for four or five
years, if they will not take the bribe ofler
ed to them at the expense of freedom.
Much less odium than that which now
falls upon the President and his Cabinet
would constrain any British Ministry to
resign. AMERICUS.

Educational.
The last GLOBE contains a reply from
the County Superintendent, to a paragraph
in the JOURNAL of the week previous, in
which was stated that "he has been using
his influence to procure students to attend
an Institution lately established in Shaver's
Creek Valley," &c.
The truth of this statement is not de
nied : it is impliedly admitted, nod a very
smooth palliation offered.
That ..the Count) Superintendent has a
right to advise his friends when informa
tion is asked of him," is true, with some
qualifications. But how can he recom
mend a student to attend it particular school
by asserting that it possesses superior ad.
vantages, when, at the same itme, there
R''e other schools in the County of at least
equal merit, Has lie so intimate a knowl
edge of all our Literary Institutions as to

ment upon them And granting that he
has, (which is certainly very doubtful) is it
proper that. occupying the position he
does. he should from prejudice or any like
cause, use thin: knowledge to the injury of
any of them ? Let him rather , -beware of
whom lie speaks, and how, and when, and
where." We have no desire for contro•
versy, nor do we wish to do any one injus
tice. We will, however, be permitted to
inquire, as the Superintendent says 4 lncog'
subjects himself to severe criticism, whe•
titer the following sentence of the Super
intendent's article is syntactically correct :
"Sny person properly 'ins-rested in any
department of education will receive the
kindest attention, when they present their
claims in person, instead of newspaper
paragraphs." INCOG.

troyed by Fire.
New York, August 18.—The City Hall
has been partially destroyed by fire. The
lire commenced shortly alter midnight in
the cupola of the building. and the flames
spread so rapidly that it was soon all in a
blaze. The firemen were promptly on
the spot and labored hard, but their efforts
failed to arrest the conflagration. The cu
pola and upper part of the main building
was completely destroyed. The pictures
in the Governor's romans well as the oth.
or property in the Hall, was much injured
if not totally destroyed. The fire probe.
bly originated from the pyrotechnic din.
play in honor of the At:antic Telegraph,
and was doubtless due to the carelessness
of the person who has the building i n
charge. The fire did not extend to either
wings, bin their contents. are seriously
damaged. Loss estimated at. $50,000.

but a few precincts were rejected on ac

Wheat in Indiana•
The Indianapolis Sentinel thinks that on
the whole, the crop of arlwat in filet State
will exceed that of last year. In Laporte
county alone it is estimated there will be a
surplus of 700,000 bushels for shipment.
The grass crop is fine all over the State.
Oats are unequal: in some localities an av
erage crop, while in others there is almost
a total failure.

hunters made their appearance in Detroit
a few days since on their way to Minnoso

of a summer day, will melt and entirely
disappear, except the bones. In packing
about fifty barrels, a few seasons ago, at
Isle Royle, one of the fishermen made t w o
and a half barrels of oil from the heads and
leaf fat alone, without the least injury to
the marketabkness of the fish. Besides
that leaf fat, the tat or oil is disseminated
in a layer of fat and a layer of lean,

for success and progress rivals anything we have

in the Union. The tide of emigration to this
