"Da:man OTT, ROCKY MOTSTAINS,
June 10, 1859.
" I am here in "the vicinity of the Gold
Digging,s,_nearly half way across the con
fluent, but not ball way through my Jour
ney. I have had a lame leg, caused by
-an upset in the ExPresi wagon, which
has bothered .me .a good deal,. and will
keep ine here for the next week,. but I
am gating now to devote myself to curing
it. Up to this time, I hive had no chance;
I have been riding almost constantly .since
'my accident, and have spent the lastthree
days climbing the Rocky Mountains and
looking through the new Gold Diggines,
and my conviction is that there is no mis
take about' it: There is gold here, but it
is harder to get it by digging than in al
most any other way. A few will make
fortunes here, while many will lose all, and
go away atterly bankrupt.
44 But . the glorious Rocky Mountains
are themselves worth
. a visit. They are
not a rahge merely, but a chaos of mo =-
tains three hundred miles broad, with their
forks, their snowy peaks, their grassy hill
sides, their ravines, and' their glorious
forests. Such clean sweet miles on miles
of fragrant, softly-whispering, Pines, you
never imagined. The- air is gloriously
pure, the hillsides dotted with springs,
the ravines musical with running streams
that never dry up. I wish I had one
friend to go through with me ; I have
hitherto bad company; henceforth T. sup
pose I must • travel alone. . I expect to
have to go out to the crossing of the
Platte, on the Salt Lake mail route, thence
to take the mail wagon to Utah. I hope
to be in Salt Lake City on the 4th oPeltt

With a few such papers as -the Em

sey would soon be beyond the- possibility
of pro-slavery-influence. We are glad to

Btu We have received.the first num
ber of the Fayette Patriot, (late the - En.:
terprise,) published at Connellsville; Pa.,
by R. Lyle White, recently editor of the
Erie Constitution. The paper bears
marks of the Well-known professional abil:
ity of Mr. White, and will no doubt be
well supported by .the Fayette county
Republicans. We extract the ,following
eminently just and truthful remarks from
the Salutatory, and commend them to
readers generally, and conductors of coini
try newspapers especially : -
"It is thought by some that as This is
the only paper in this part of the county
it should occupy neutral groiind on polit
ical matters. With all due deference to
them We must beg leave to dissent. Let
them consider the subject calmly and im
partially, withiYut being . biass'd in any
sense-by their political prejudices:. Are
they willing to be neutral in thought and
action on politics ? Whenever the mass
of community is ready to answer this
question in the affirmative, it wilt be time
for them to require their local - paper's to
be neutral, but not sooner. No true pat
riot can stand idle and occupy a position
of neutrality in the presentstate of things
when mighty questions agitate the whole
country. Re "must be on one side . or the
other. Whether he shall sustain, Truth,
Justice, Unman Rights and Constitution,
al Liberty, or sanction Fraud,. Injustioe-
Executive Usurpation, and JUdical,Tyr
allay, is for his own conscience to decide.
There is no nentralground for intelligent
freem'en. When - the Federal 'Govern
ment and the Federal Courts have be
come engines to crush the liberties of the
people and" the rights of. States, and to
inaugurate and perpetuate a centralized
despotism, itis no time for men to talk
about neutrality either in the press or the
people., They would be cowards if they
remained silent in,
w such - a crisis. Politi
cally, therefore, e shall give a cordial
support to the princiPles of the Republi
can Party, and to the meritorious candi
dates whom it shall select for places of re
sponsibility and trust.".
Among the names suggested for the next
Governor of Pennsylvania, we notiee that of
Hon. Ed. D Gaazam, of PlA:burgh. * The
West claiming the Governor, we know of no
one whom we would more cheerfully support
than the Doctor,, He made an excellent Sea
ator-and our" persontil acquaintance war
rants us in saying be would
_make an excllent
executive officer. Few men, we are certain,
possess more administrative abilities,. or are
better acquainted with the Governmental
affairs of the Commonwealth,--terks County
Press.
The above extract from an Eastern pa
per impliedly admits the' right of the
West for the next candidate for Govern
or. This fact being admmitted, we should
be careful to put forth men free from ex
ception. We do not design, at this early
day, to commit the. Journal to any can
didate, but we haire no doubt the ex-Sen
ator from this district is entitled to the
flattering compliment contained in the
above extract. The 5,000 majority which
Allegheny can give, ought to entitle her
to this nominatlen..—LPittsburg Journal,
• We have before expressed our, views
of this matter; and . while tve can hearti

the sentiment expressed 'the dournd,

.Fifty Democrats Indicted.
From the Toledo "Blade.
. The. Leavenworth jail is filled; says one
of • our exchanges, to 'overflowing with
'fgcod; tried and - valient democrat?,.'; who
haie been arrested and indicted for fraud
ulent voting at the recent election.. More
than fifty :of the b'.ys are in - the Jug ifor
obeying the party injunctions, viz , "Vot
ing early and, often, and. keeping on vot
ing until-the polls wercolosed." The le
gal investigation now going on is disclos
ing an fold -fashioned Kickapoo or. Oxford
swindle. ;These fifty Olepnt democrats
are b 0 a: preface of what is to come !
The Republicans are confident that the
apparent democratic majority will be more
than sponged out ere the frauds commit
ted in Leavenworth are: probed to the
bottom. _ .
,
The last Kansas legislature passed a
Registry-law, and,the very day after the
late election, the officers commenced reg
istering the legal voters of Leavenworth
county. It is probably completed by this
time, and it was confidently expected that
fully five hundred bogus names would be
found on the-poll books, in that one coun
ty. Similar frauds were committed in
every county in the territory, in \ibid . '
the deumerats.had any hope of success.
It is now generally believed that , the
Republicans polled a considerable major
ity of the legal votes-east in Leavenworth
county, and if this - b&„ suhstantiateil, the
ten seats in the convention claimed by
the ballot-box stuffers',will - be given to the
Republicans._ In Doniphan and Johnson
counties it is also ascertained ~that scores
of .fraudulent votes were.cast by the dem
ocrats,, and °to, this,cause alone, their suc
cess isattributed, Tkeriew Registry law
will put tt stop to. tese .nefarions demo
-1)301
erotic praatines, in t e future; and will
have the effect of re u ink the democrat
ic vote in all the,river nties. If each
democratic voter is confined to, casting
one democratic vote on election dayi there
-is not a county in Kansas which this par
ty -can carry. 1 -
, MRS.. PADTINGTON AND IKE.-A. new
book by Mrs. Partington is ore of. the
most agreeable - literary announeemonts
which 'we can make to the thousands who
have laughed and grown fat over her un
ique sayings. The old lady has been
sometime preparing a volume, which she
has christened "Knitting-work, a Web of
many. TextUres," and in a few weekt
Messrs. Brown; Taggard & Chase, the for
tunate publishers, will issue it in a very
attractive form. It will be handsomely
illustrated by Hoppin, who has caught
the spirit of the work, and represented
both Mm. Parting,ton and Ike in ninny of
their peculiarities, with unusual felicity.
Though differing, sarnewhat from Mr.
Shillaber's previous volume, published
some five„years ago, and of which 80,000
copies were sold, it yet abounds in quaint
and grotesque Partingtonian sayings, fine
poems, and suggestive essays. The open
ing cliapter on the choosing of a "Guar;
dian 'for Ike" is running over with fun
and philosophy. The greater part of the
book is original, while scattered. here and
there through its pages may be found se
lections from the author's recent contri
butions to the * dazette, of which he is one
of the editors. At the risk of being
charged with • telling tales out of school,
we venture to give publicity to the fol
lowing conversation about the volume,
between . the dame and a.prying neighbor.

DEATH or Da. BAILEY.—The steam

Br. GAMALIEL BAILEY, the well-known
editor of The .National Era, who lately
embarked .for Havre, in the hope of re
cruiting his health by foreign travel, died
at sca on the, sth inst. His age was '5l
or 52 years. Ile - was a native of Mount
Holly, N. J.. and was educated asa phy
sician. He was at one time editor of the
Methodist Protestant at- Baltimore. in
1836, having settled in Cincinnati, he as
sociated himself ; with dames G. Birney
in the conduct of The Philanthropist.
He remained connected with that paper
tilllB47„,when it was merged with The
.Arational Era, of which he has been the
editor since that Aiwa. lie was a man of
genial temper, indomitable ,perieverance,
unimpeachable personal 'integrity, and so
cial •qualities that made .hini a favorite
among alarge circle of friends. Ile was
thoroughly posted upon the .question of
slavery in its relations to - current politics
and to questions of political:economy, and
has written tune% upon theSe branches of
the subject that is worthy of preservation.
We record his death with deep regret,,
and with earnest.sympathy for his strick
en family. . ,
