dueors OF the press to assert their own rights, and
resolve, Severay and jointly, TO bing all patrons OF

The distractions Of federal and democratic, or
wing and loco ioco, are natural distinctions OF par
ties which must exist in all. Democrats are the
people coniending against the oppression of the
few, the iederalsts the arstocrats who contend that
the people are not able to govern themselves, and
that rnasmuch as the federal party absorb all the
wisdom and all the intelligence OF the country they
should be allowed to govern.

SWALLOWING A MAN WHOLE.

The Northern papers relate feat ofSignot
Blitz's performance which amounted to the
same as swallowing an entire man, or rather
he bet he could do it, and won the wager. A
gentleman challenged the magician to swallow
him, and wagered one hundred dollars that he
could not do Fhe Signor took it up and APP
peared on the spot in due season with large
pot Of grease to help out with his meal. The
gentleman was also there, when the following
conversation took place:
"Are you ready for the attempts" asked the
magician
"All ready"
"You will please take off your hat"
"Certainly."
"Now your boots, there may be nails in the
heels Of them"
ooh Yes"
"Now Off with your coat, the buttons would
be likely to cut against my teeth"
eOf course"
"Now your pantaloons and shirt"
"Why, sir, do you intend that shall STRIP
myself entirely"
"Yes; why not? agreed to swallow you,
but the clothes are not in the bond. By strip
ping and thorough grensng, | presume :
shall be able to perform the feat with but little
difficulty. ,
"That is your game Isl it? In such case
YOU are welcome to the money"
