We intended to liave enlarged our paper ere tho com mencement of the present volume, and the appearance cf the Treasuier's Sale List, but the dullness of times has frus trated our intentions. : c, Within the past two weeks the Democrats liave been carrying almost every town in tho State where elections liavo been held. Corry, Titusville, Ilarrisburg, York, Bedford, Middlo town, Marietta, Marysville, Elizabeth, town, Easton, and other towns, have gone Democratic with tremendous gains. In some of the above named place.?, Corry and Titusville for instauce, such an event as a Democratic victory is surprising to both Democrats and Rads ioals. Straws show which way tho wind blows. Bt3iTbe fiiends of Col. Dan Rico liavo issued a long address to the dele gates to tho Democratic National Con. veutiou, which they are spreading broadcakt ovnr the country. It recites the causes which have enabled the Rad ical party to retain power foi so long a period, argues that none of the candi dates named for the Democratic nomi natiou cau b) successful, and comes to the conclusion that the only man whose name cau lead the puty on to victory is the ouc whose claims they advocate.

The condition of old Thad Stevens, according to late Washington accounts, iudica'.es a final breaking up of his sys. tern.

Ben Butler's railroad speed impeachment court ad journed on Monday afternoon to ftecure concert of action, as Suinncr paid, against the application. of the President's counsel for timo to prepare his defence.

Tho 'court' re. tired for consultation, aud, ufxr three o'clock having Fccurcd the requisite 'conceit ot action' returned with an order which declares ' That the Senate' whp not court ? ' will commence the trial of the President on the 30th ol March instant, and proceed therein with all despatch" i. e. with railroad speed, so as not to allow tho President's counsel to ' educate themselves iu the case.' ThS high old ' court then ad journed itself as a court and put on its ordinary Rump g-irb. It dill be prcceive 1 that this order allows the 1 'resident's counsel four woiking days to prepare their defence Wednesday, Thursday, Friday ard Sat urday. They asked lor thirty days, al. legiug tbs; they had not a document prepared nor a witness summoned, but the conspirntois, who have their own testimony and argumeuts all prepared, (having been at it for more than a year past.) were determined to take every undue advantage. They do not want a fair trial ; they have prejudged the whole case from their hot headed parti san standpoint, and, seeing so much power and patronage almost within their grasp, they cannot refrain from an exhi bition of the most in,feceut casreruess to clutch the coveted prize. Certainly no event has ever transpired in the history of this government, so shocking to ev ery sense of justice and propriety as the initial proceedings of the railroad speed coutt of impeachment.
