t?AIN JUT)AS ISCARIOT AND BENE
DICT ARNOLD.
Just DOW we find our Democratic ex
change* filled with the names of the above
persons, aud allusions to their history.—
CAIN was the first murderer; ISCARIOT was
the apostle who sold the sou of God and
then committed suicide, and ARNOLD tried
to sell the whole country and send his coun
trymen to the dungeoD and the scaffold.
The Democratic press, with hyperbolical in
dignation, are engaged in comparing to this
handsome trio, three respectable Democrats
< f York anJ Schuylkill counties, who chose
to vote for a former Democrat, a good
citizen sod old personal friend, in prefer
ence to a man of doubtful character, who
had no claims upon their support and friend
ship.
King LEAS, after the irgratitnde and cru
elty of his daughters had turned him out
in the midst of a tempest, in a dark and
dreadful night, did not rave more wildly
and savagely.than a portion of the Demo,

These three men were elected by the
Democratic party in a close and augry COD.
• test, at a most important and trying time in
the history of their party: they received its
-confidence, ami by its suffrages were eie
•rated to the position* they ROW occupy.—
Here wa9 a moral obligation binding tuetn
in simple gratitude, to stand by the party
that at* honored them. Nut only so, but
they went into the L) •inoerAtic caucus oe

their party. An 1 after all this they ruth

MONEHN DEMOCRACY. —The following
portraiture of .Modern Democracy a3 drawn
by the Fiorida Sentinel, wiil strike the
reader as tmc to the life.
It is perfectly consistent with the teach
ings of Modem DjuvMsrasy to blow hot and
cold out of the smm? uioufh. Phis faculty
is peculiar to modern Democracy. It can
with consistency be anti-s'avery at the
North, and pro-slavery at the South, low
tariff tn the West and high tariff, in the
East, anti-iuternal improvement in the At
lantic, and pro-internal improvement in the
Pacific.
The Commercial Convention whtoh re
cently met at Savannah, in which some
eight or ten Southern States were repre
sented, adopted, after mature deliberation,
a resolution which declares that the "Fed
eral Government posse—— so power under
the Constitution to constr—t a Railroad to
the Pacific Ocean.'' Mr. Boehaans nod
the OmeioLuti Platform express the contra
ry opinion, and y*.t tlijse sauie men who de
nied the power of the Federal Government
at Savxuaah, cudor.-ed the Cincinnati Plat
form and voted for old Back.
THE INDIANA SENATORSHIPS.
The contest over two seats in the U. S.
, Senate, has commenced with spirit in the
Indiana Legislature. The House is Deino
j eratic, the Senate Republican, and the
Dt?mocttts would have a majority oo joint
j ballot.
j The Republican Senate, therefore, is deter
| mined not to go into ballot. The Demo
crats are determined that they shall. Wil
| lard, the Democratic Lieuteuant Governor,
undertook to call tbo Senate to order, and
it was apprehended he would refuse to
swear ID some of the Republicans on the
ground that their certificates of election
were insufficient. But the Senate defeated
this movement by electing a President pro
tern. The two presiding officers took their
seats side by side, and fiually the Lieut.
Governor acknowledged the certificates to
be valid, and swore all the members in.
Then arose another difficulty. It has
| been customary (though not required by
! law) for the Legislature to hear the Gov
! ernor's message read in joint convention.
J The Democrats were confident that this
would enable them to spring a motion on
the joiut convention, to take a vote for IT.
j S Senator, when the Republicans, being in
a minority, would have to submit. But
".he Senate, discerning the cat under that
ii.cal, disappointed them by refusing to go
into joint convention, either to hear the
message or for anything else, leaving the
Governor 7o adopt our custom of sending a
copy into e cfr branch. Tuis he did notdo,
so, on Friday, Ire read his document to the
House atone. the Senate having adjourned,
and the vote on the acnatorships is as far off
as ever.
EXECUTION OF JSIX NEOROES. —The
Canton (Ky.) Dispatch publishes the fol
lowing extract of a letter f.*ona Pembroke,
Tenn., sriving an aeeouut ol t\e execution
of six of Senator Bell's slaves, the value
of which is set down at twel Fe thousand
dollars. The account will look queer
years hence, especially when the Pacts are
remembered that the ceufessions upon which i
they were hung, were extorted from them
by the whip.
"Tuesday morning I went to Dover, and
arrived there about two o'clock. The peo
ple had bung four negroes at eleven o'-
clock that morning, and two more then in
t< wn to be hung. 1 got to the place of ex
ecution in time to see the last one go off.—
Of the six that were hung, three were
preachers. They were all proved to be
ringleaders. I learned that the men at the
forge were at work whipping the truth out
of their negroes, so I roue out there that j
night and was up with them ail night. 1
saw a list ol negroes that Lad been whip- i
ped, and was told what they all had stated, j
auU then I beard the balance examined—
some taking five and six hundred lashes b- '
fore titer would tell the tale; but when
they did tell it, it was the same that all j
the others had tola. Seme told the whole
story without taking a lick. Those that j
were examined were not permitted, to see !
those that were not-, they were kept entire- •
iy separate, aud a guard over each One
of the negroes at the forge died from whip- j
ping that night, several hours after the op
eration."

PREPENT TO SEVATOR SCMXER.—Gov
j ernor Robison of Kansas, brought from
i that Territory a beautiful cane, a present
i to Senator Sumner from Major Bickerton,
! one of the free State prisoners. The cane
! was wrought by the Major's own hands,
during his imprisonment at Lecompton, and
the device is peculiarly appropriate and
significant, the whole being carved from a
solid piece of wood, and highly polished;
upon it are thirty-one artificial knots, fif
teen of which are within the coil of a ser
pent, representing the fifteen enslaved; and
sixteen without its coils, representing the
sixteen free States; and as the serpent (sla
very) is still reaching after more states
•round which to coil itself, the genius of
liberty grasps him around the ueck and says:
"Thus far hast thou gone, bat no farther
canst thou go!" thus forming the head of
the cane.— Springfield Republican.

1 Kittles ot Christie's Ague Balsam, and contin
'tally run down while using it until my htngs
and iyer were Congested to that degree that
blood discharged from my mouth and bowels,
s<> that all thought it impossible for n e to live
through another chill. The doctors t did
all they could lor n.e, but though I meat die
-Nothing did any good until I got Rhodes' Fe
ver and and Ague Cure, which at once reliev
ed me of the distress and nausea at mv stom
ach and pain in niv held and bowels, and pro
iucei a jierman :at cure m a short time.' 5
H. M. CONKLIX says: "1 had been taking me
dicine ol as good a doctor as we have in our
county, and taken any quantity ot quinine
at. i specifics without any good result, from
21 August to iith December. But seeing how
nicely it operated on my brother, I got a bot
t|. of RHODES' FEVER AND AGUE CURE,
waicb effected a permanent cure by using two
thirds of a bottle.*?
S. M. Cos ui.ix was not here, but both tha
other brothers any hi* case WAS the same as H.
