PRESIDENTIAL TERMs.--The State Jour.
nal has introduced the subject of one presi.
Dental term, and in urging the claims ol
General Harrison on the ground of his
pledge, to decline reelection. 1t seems
unfortunate, to us, that any such ground
has been taken, especially as there is no
likelihood that the doctrine will be adopted
by the administration party, and as little
that popularity will be acquired by the op-
position candidate by its adoption. That
evils may, and do arise under bad admin
istration, by the anxiety of the incumbent to
continue in office leading him to unjustifa-
Bile means toperpetuate his power, there is
no doubt; but is there no danger that a
good executive officer, and perhaps the only
available candidate may be excluded by the
rule, and thus the party loose the benefits of
that personal popularity which an excellent
administration has justly earned' 1t is to
be regretted that persons who have once
holden the office of President of the United
States, should be again eligible, under the
constitution; but until that is changed, we
see no reason why one party should de-
prive themselves of the power to re-elect,
in the face of another, who will be more
likely to take issue upon than follow the
practice. Trammelng man who may in
future be desirable candidate, with minor
matters, long in advance, is not the most
judcious measure in the world, and we hope
twill not be done in this case, especially
as there does not seem to be any strongly
marked public sentiment upon the subject.
BOUNDARY WAR.-Gan. Robert Lucas,
Governor of Iowa, and formerly of the good
ly state of Ohio, has kept his territory and
the state of Missouri in state of fermenta-
ton for long time, in the matter of a ques-
ton about the boundaries of the two terri
tories, in which much has been said about
war, and some few things done. Having
seen Governor Lucas in his wariike mo-
ments, when his spirit was exceedingly
moved within him, so that he did actually
perspire under an accumulation of valor,
we had expected to hear of warlike deeds
in battle done and of bruises beyond the
sovereign virtue of parmecity to heal; but
the Governor is a man, who so tempers his
valor with discretion, that the sweet flow
ret of mercy doth bud and blossom in his
soul, and twine itself around his heart
strings, even as his wintry locks do curl
and cluster in Corinthian luxuriance beneath
the shadow of his broad brimmed hat; and
the Governor relented, and the war is over,
and the song of the bird of joy-bringing
peace Is heard in the land. Talks ofbattles
are turned into talks of shooting matches;
the shining bowie knife, instead of glancing
between human ribs, is peacefully employed
in laying bare the bones of buffalo or deer,
and the shrill voiced rifle, in the place of
sending the contents of its stomach to ac-
company soul to eternity, pours them out
in the honest chase of bear or turkey.

BANKlNe-Specie Payments.-There is
said to be company formed, somewhere in
the region of the Black Swamp, that issues
large quantities of counterfeit bank notes,
which they redeem promptly with bogus
dollars on demand. The notes Of this in

than the funds paid out by the state agents
to the contractors, on the Black Swamp
