THE QUICKEST RACE ON RECORD.

Under this caption strange anachronism, and err
rors of fact appeared in the Madisonian this morn
ing from some Northern paper This "quickest
race" is said to have been run between Flying Chill
ders and Eclipse in England, in 1915, and to have
been won by Childers. Now it happens that Fly
ing Childers fourshed in l72l-22, and Eclipse in
1769'70.
The course over which Flying Childers was said
to have run four miles in en- AS. is known not TO
have been full mile. The most that be affirmed
of his speed with certainty, is that he beat Almanzor
over the round course at New Market, three miles,
six furlongs, and nnety-three yards in six minutes
forty seconds, which at the rate not as has been
said, Of "eightytwo feet and half in one second of
time, or nearly at the rate of mile minute" but
at the rate of only so 794OO feet in second Of time,
at the rate of mile in minute tory.fre seconds
and fraction Now be it remembered that TIMo-
LEON sire Of Boston, over that slow course, New
Market, Petersburg, mile within only two seconds
of Childers time, winning Nth ease in I'm. AS,
ROBIN Hoop, son Of Henry, ran a mile with ease
over the Union course in I'm. 46s. true it with
catch weights There is good reason to believe that
if Childers and Eclipse had hourished at the same
time, the latter would have proved himself superior
to Chiders in four mile race. He ran at York -four
miles in eight minutes, carrying l6s pounds, or Al
pounds more weight than Chlders did.
Seven pounds additional weight is computed by
old sporsmen, (but believedby the writer Of this
to be equal to distance, which is 240 yards, in .
race Of four miles. At that rate with l2s pounds
(Childers weight Eclipse could have run the foul
miles in minutes 81 seconds

FAYETTE LAND o. ICE.

The Senate Of the United stat. is confirmed the
nomination of Gen John H. CLARK, TO the Register
ship Of the Fayete Land )fice, and rejected w. y.
Birch Esq, the nominee for Receiver. Thus far a
simple announcement Of the above facts is all that
Washington city papers contain, and hence the rea-
sons for the rejection Of Mr. Birch, are unknown to
the country, and till the injunction Of secrecy be
moved will, in all probability, continue unknown
Believing as do, that the confirmation BY the Sc

District and that the NOMINEE was well qualified
in point of honesty and ability any other man,
are at loss to know the grounds Of the rejection.

obtains in such may forever bar investigation
nevertheless, trust the injunction will be removed
and an opportunity given TO bring To light the reasons
why and wherefore, upon which the rejection was

THE MISREPR + SENTATIONS OF
PARTISAN PRESSES.

The cant terms of party-corruption, mis-
rule, and proaig acy--which have had their orr
gin in corrupt administrations, the everlasting
nomenclature Of party men, have been exhaust
ed already in their application to the present Ad-
minlstratlon. Al a period too, which, if the
most systematic efforts had been adopted, would

dent by Mr.. Webster. Now, we shall not anti
cpaie the fate of the bill, nor discuss its merits.
The Senate is competent to do this. If il is a
wholesome measure, we doubt not il will pass.
We hope and believe.it will not be made par
ty question.
Our intention is to remark on the notipes OF
the Globe. 1t is trembling in its shoes. II is
catching at straws. Ii wants to rally under its
banner the Democracy once more. 1t fears de-
sertions. Ii wants the Democratic Senators TO
| stgmatise some measure of the Executive as a
Federal measure. 1t desires to raise one of its
old battle shouts against the President, and mus
ter once more the rank-and file Of former days.
But lis light has gone out. The spirit of its
cause has departed. There must be change
of leaders. Subordinate organs must be dis
missed. The star of the Globes glory is wan
ing.
The Globe expected immense capital from
the Rhode Island difficulty. II was lamentably
disappointed. For several days il has been en-
deavorng 10 retreat without disgrace from the
field. 1t would now suppress the subject. The
glorious expression of Democratic sentiment it
expected to hear in the Senate turned out to be
nothing more than "a voice crying in the will
derness," and resembling very much the earth
quake halloos in the land of the porkers No
one came TO the call The attempt to get mp a
Senatorial breeze against the President was a
signal failure. The Democratic Senators were
not sufficiently radical for that. The beauty Of
the matter is, that the Globe has led astray some
three or four Democratic journals. They be-
lieved, from the Globes tone, that all the De-
mocratic Senators would follow Allen. They
have been egregiously disappointed.

RHODE ISLAND.

We sincerely hope--nay, we have the fullest
assurances now that the rule OF law seems once
more to be established in Rhode lsland-that the
Government of the State will meet the wishes
of large numbers of the People, by so modify
mo the existing Constitution as to redress all
grievances. The opinions of the age require a
liberal concession on the subject of suffrage.
The democratic principle which, according to
De Tocqueville, is decidedly upon the advance
all over the world, requires that due share in
the Government should be given to all who can
furnish sufficient evidences of attachment TO
free Institutions. We doubt not that Governor
King recognises this as correct, and that, upon
the assembling of the Legislature in June, there
will be left no cause of complaint-of real sub
stantlal complaint-on the part of any of the free
born citizens of Rhode Island. We firmly be-
lleye that steps will be taken to call Conven-
uon with full powers to pass upon all subjects
of interest to the State. Governor King has
proven his regard for the lives of his fellow
citizens. He has maintained the supremacy OF
the laws at the expense Of not drop of blood.
He has won proud station among his fellow
men, and he Will raify his claims to the re-
gard of the whole country by resorting to heal
ing measures, and as far as practicable by erasing
the memory Of the recent troubles of his glorious
little State. All that we ask of the citizens of
other States is to leave the People Of Rhode
Island to regulate their municipal concerns in
their own way, and after their own liking
We implore the great masses of our fellow citi-
lens to give no ear to the rawlings Of the misera-
Die hacks Of party who always throw themselves
in The lead of all agitations for their own ag
grandizement, and leave those who have been de-,
ceived by their wiles to pay the cost. We would
have the most guilty even, in the late troubles,
TO be pardoned, and thereby furnish an ever glo
rlous evidence of the confidence reposed in the
suflciency of our institutions, which require the
blood Of no man to be shed in order to impart
10 them stability.

encourage its organs in thus insulting the Pre-

The Senate did not sit on Saturday, the 2ls,
instant
In the House of Representatives, Mr. s. L.
Andrews, from the Committee on Commerce,
reported bill TO authorize the purchase of sites
for marine hospitals therein mentioned, the crea-
ton of a collection district in Marietta, Ohio,
and to make Chicago, Illinois, port Of entry,
Mr. j. c. Clark, Of New York, from the
same committee, reported bill re-appropratng
money for the erection Of a lighthouse at
Flynn's Knoll, New York, on iron screw piles,
and for the rebuilding the Brandywine Shoa
lighthouse in Delaware bay.
The House resolved itself into Committe e
Of the Whole and took up the Navy Appropria-
ton bill. The question pending was on the pro-
otherwise ordered by Congress, no part of
the 81 335 900 appropriated for the pay of
commissioned, warrant and petty officers, and
seamen, or any other future or existing appro-
priation, shall be applied to the payment Of any
officers in the Navy, appointed after this date,
beyond the number in each grade on the Isl
day Of January, lS41 and that the excess now
in the service, beyond that number, shall be re-
duced as fast as deaths designations, and pro-
motions will permit. Mr. EVERETT had moved
to strike out all after the word Provided, and in
sert "that no part OF this appropriation shall be
applied for pay of any officer of the grade of
captain, commander, lieutenant, passe lmidship-
man, or mdshipman, hereafter appointed, if the
number in service of his respective grade shall
exceed the number in service on the lst day
of January, 1S4l."
After some remarks by Messrs. Gushing,
Parmenter, Meriwether, and others, the COM
mittee rose, without taking the question, and
the House then adjourned.

TURN our.-We have always commended, and we
believe it to be the true principle of our Govern
ment that freedom Of opinion and liberty of speech
should be accorded TO the agent of Government as
well as to the private citizen. Although il does not
look well for men holding Office under the
Government to be oud-moulhed, brawling par
tisan, yet he should not, because he holds an
Office find his rights abridged and feel the privilege
of speaking in defence of his individual opin-
ions or Of his political preferences curtailed, il
not in fact negatived entirely. So long as an
oHice.hoder does not exercise his Office for the
purpose of influencing elections, we consider that
he has perfect right to express whatever view,
of policy nc may please, and to deprive him OF
office for promulgating his sentiments freely ex-
pressing them, would be an act of tyranny
But there is difference between freely expressing
political opinions, and reckessy abusing, villiylng
and traducng the power comforting office, or those
in whom that power conhdese Although VIC would
not inquire into the political opinions of those whom
we employed, yet if they abused us, betrayed our
confidence or lent their aid to those who en-
deavorins to work our rum they should be hurled
