1.-THE MAGICIAN AT HIS OLD
TRICKS

The Washington correspondent Of the N.
Y. Courier and Enquirer, states that in the
recent election Of Senator in North Caro-
lima, Mr.. Van Buren, wore two faces.
Bedford Brown, who was VIGOROUSLY the
fsvorite of the Van Buren, Loco Focos, it is
said, showed sundry letters from Mr. V. b..
in which he expressed his utter want of con-
fdence in Judge Saunders and his earnest
hope that Brown would be elected. Judge
Saunders learning of this, produced letters
from Mr. V. B. to him, in which, the :" sweet
little fellow" sof soaped him in the most
approved style, expressed the most unbound
ed confidence in his democracy, and the
most earnest desire for his success. This
reminds us of the six gentlemen who court
ed lady, and who on comparing notes,
found that she was engaged to all six.

COM. MCKENZIE.
We find the following paragraph in In

We find the following paragraph in the
last Madsonan. Its statements are I'M
doubtcdly reliable.
TIE "CouHr MARTrA1~"-'Fhe paragraph
going the rounds of the newspapers, in relation
to the "Cout Martial" is utterly devoid OF all
foundation. 1t is believed to have originated
with the Courier and Enquirer, aud has found
its way into the lntelligencer, New York Stan
dard, and other papers. The paragraph states
that the President of the United States, without
waiting to learn the decision of the recent
Court of Inquiry, has ordered Court Martial
to convene for the trial of Captain Mackenzie
and others in the case of the alleged mutny
on board the Soners and the Standard adds
that this has been done to save Mackenzie and
others from suits at law. Now, we are author
lied to say that there is not one word of truth
in the above.
No court was ordered till the 25th instant,
four days after the adjournment of the Court
of Inquiry, and more than two days after the
receipt OF the record at the Department. The
President has done nothing in the matter, and
the Secretary Of the Navy has treated it exact
ly as he has done every other case. He or
dered Court Martial as soon as he made up
his mind that it was proper TO do so, neither
waiting for the civil authority 10 act. nor hurry
ing IN order TO prevent its action. If the civil
authority has desired to take the case from the
Navy Department, it has had ample time to do
so. At least one week will have elapsed, be-
tween the adjournment Of the Court of Inquiry
and the arrest ofEu,n. Mackenzie for trial be-
ore Court Martial.
The ldealhat Court Martial has been or
dered, or that the parties desired one, "as the
only means Of sa,ng themselves from suits at
law" is merely I'i,culous. The sentence of a
Court Martial might, indeed. be bar TO pro-
secution for the same offence in the civil courts,
but that it can prevent "suits at law" is new
idea. The simple truth is, that the Secretary
Of the Navy has not made the least distinction,
in any respect, between this and any other case !;
and the President has not nterfcred with him in
any manner Whatever
The whole responsibility rests on the Secre-
tary of the Navy alone and he is perfectly vii.
ING that his whole proceedings in the matter
shall be lad before the country. A Court Mar
tIal is necessary, under every possible view Of
the case. Ii Mackenzie he guilty, it is neces-
sary in order to try him; if he be innocent it is
necessary in order 10 try the mnt,ncers. 1t
was not necessary, therefore, TO postpone it even
till the rising OF the court of inquiry. The fact
that it has been post oned I'll several days
after that event, is proof enough that it is not
now called with any view to take the case from
the civil authority.
Naral Court Nartial.-Wc learn that the
Secretary of the Navy has appointed William
II. Norris, Esq. Of this city, Judge Advocate of
the Court Martial which has been ordered in the
case Of Commander Mackenzie. 1t Will consist
Of ten Captains and three Commandcrs.-B Ball.

THE WORKINGS OF LOCO FOCO-


The ,. State Of l'Ii"o,. s,.isi pres,
Of the peculiar beauties and benefits of Lo-
co Foco legislation. Illinois has always en-
joyed the advantages of Loco Foco rule.
The Wings lave had neither lot nor part
in the administration of her affairs. The
Banks, the Internal Improvements, the Pub
lie Debt, and the heavy taxes are all the
creations of her Loco Foco rulers. The
seed sown in ten years of Loco Foco mis-
government is now yielding It's legitimate
frnits. The Public Debt is in effect repu-
dated; the Banks are all broken; the Treas
ury is entirely empty the currency is an
initiated; the People are borne down by
taxes which they have not the means of pay
ing gloom and distress overspread the
whole State. Yet in the midst of all this
difficulty and disaster, the work of their own
hands, the Loco Foco legislators of Illinois
are wasting their time in quarreling about
the division Of the spoils and in discussing
unmeaning resolutions against reputation.
While thus engaged n few days since, a
communication was received from the Gov
ernor, calling their attention, in the most
earnest terms, to the dcplorabe condition
of the State Finances. The Governor in
formed them that the utmost difficulty was
experienced in procuring the necessary sup
plies for the daily use of the Legislature.
Wood which could be obtained for cash at
at 81 rs per cord, cost the State So so;
candles which were worth 81 l2 cents per
pound cost one dollar; even the postage on
letters addressed TO the Executive Depart
ment was with difficulty paid, there being
nothing in the Treasury but auditors war-
rants, and these hardly saleable at fifty
cents on the dollar! Who does hot envy
Illinois her ten years uninterrupted enjoyment
Of Loco Foco rule AN. Ere. Journal.
