The Gazette makes a great flourish
about resolution passed at the late coun-
ty Convention in Muscaiine. In order
to make out his case he acknowledges
that FIVE of the Democratic members Of

bought up by the other party, before tina,
body chartered the present U. S. Bank
OF Pennsylvania. Now if there had
been none in the Democratic ranks Of
such easy Uirtue as those he has mention
ed, that state would never have been
cursed as it has been by such rotten
institution as that has proved itself to be.

oae might suppose by the extracts
from the Globe and Ohio Statesman, to
be found in the Gazette, that those pa
Pers have taken Iowa under their espe-
clai care and protection. The editor Of
the Gazette takes his cue from those
papers. The whole batch seem to
mourn over the depraviiv of the times,
because the people tolerate the appoint
ment of such men as Chambers, Stull
and johnson, in the place of the ilnmacu.

croakings it might be supposed that the

: course Only suggest the most Prorniaen; points
Of his address.
He spoke first OF the probabilities that wa-
would arise ere long between Grea, Britain and
the United States, and mentioned I'VE points OF dis
pute between us: The question Of the Norih-t.as;
Boandary-,he capture of the Caroliae-orr de-
tention of McLeod-tbe seizure OF our vessels OF
the Coast Of Africa, and the consequer, injury %
OUT Commerce. and-ihe Oregon BOUNDARY ques-
ton. pom none Of these points could we believe
that England would ever recede; our Government
certainly could not with proper regard for justice
AID honor; so that collision seems inevitable.
What should we do in csc war should arise
vas the second main pon; considered by the ec-
;urer. The cite. upon our seaboard ne regarded
- safe: for in the two wars through which We
have already passed, the British mad never taken a
single city upon cur coast ,-iti thar fact alone,
which was the only force they could now employ.
The present forts. il we repaired, would amply
guard all our harbors; the rapidity with which
arge bodies Of soldiers could be transported along
our coast would ensure their safety.

one Of our great objects when war arises. and he
gave at much length detailed plan for acconp-
fishing ,ili. Quebec was of course to be the main
point Of attack, and troops we're to be "a sed by q
combination of the volunteer and established army
systems.

plan We could easily command force of 10000

proved by trial. Tacse should al be anchored in
hoTbor and the British naval force divided; our
light, swifi-soiliug vessels and prlvateers should
then attack and destroy their commerce, in winch
they must prove BY far the greater sufferers

PEACE OFFICER. OF THE REGiSrRY.- Mr.. Edlt0r !:
In an article in your paper this morning, it seems to
be supposed that the Legislature, in drectirg the
Common Council 10 assign three peace officers 10
attend the Commissioners of Registry, aaye made
It obligatory o. the part II the Commissioners 10
employ them lrieiAer their services are required
or not This, | apprehend. is not the true con-
struction OF the law. Its object see 22) IS TO
require tho Common Council! to GeSt gHGte certain
officers so that the Commissioners may at all times
know whom to call upon TO execute their orders,
whenever il may become necessary to notify them
to attend for that purpose; and not that they shall
De compelled 10 attend when there Is nolhing for
them TO do and when their presence Is not required.
The Commissioners should take the names and
residence of the officers, and inform them tina; their
attendance will be dispensed with uot there is some
occasion for it, and Whenever the presence Of any
peace officers becomes necessary, they will be mo-
;iied TO attend.
Acc ,rding this construction, the Common
Council passed resolution in January las;, that
the Marshal and Consta5les should only be al
lowed and paid for the number OF days actually
smDi0ysd as such at the meetings OF the Commjs-
soners to be certified by the Commissioners OF the
respective Wards. See Board o, AID Doc. ~, p.
i99.)
perceive that the Common Council, in appoint
ing these officers, have appointed in the Loco-Foco
Ward, the two Constable, OF the Ward ard one
Marshal but in all the Wing Wards they have
passed by the Constables OF the Ward and have
soar among them stranger, from distant parts of
the City to keep them in order. Arc the people
OF the Wing Wards aware of this and are they
content tina. their own officers shall be turned out
