WHO IS LANES K. POLK,

This question being settled, that he is gen.
tleman who lives out on "Duck River" (for
Tennessee does not seem 10 claim him,) whom
the triumphant Democracy" have elevated TO
the Chief Magistracy OF the Union another
question has been started by the inquisitive pub
lie, namely, "Who is MRs. Polk - This is
answered by the Washington correspondent Of
the New-York Express, as follows

POSTAGE REFORM.

The private mails which have been established
between the large cities Of the North it seems are
likely to force the government into a reduction OF
the rates of postage. The New York Sun, some
days ago, mentioned the fact, that one Of the pri-
vate mail concerns in that city had received in
one day $50 letters, while the Pos-ofTice received
only three; and the private mail, at six cents
letter, received S3l 80, while the Post Office COL
le,ted only forty-six cents.
1t is said that Postmaster General Wickliffe
will recommend to Congress reduction of the
rates of postage to fire cents for all distances
under five hundred miles, and to ten cents for all
greater distances. Under these rates the Frank
ing Privilege mus; of course be abolished, if the
department would be made to sustain itself.

NEW HAMPSHIRE.

The people of New Hampshire at the late elec-
.ion voted not only that Mr.. Polk should be Pres
ident OF the United States but also that no revi.
sion should be had of the State Constitutions
Among the provisions of the existing constitu-
tion there are two worthy of particular notice.
One Is that no man can hold Office under the State
Government unless he be Protestant; the other
requires a property qualification as essential to
holding office: The property qualification for the
governors office is not less than five hundred
Pounds-ior other Offices in proportion.
The proposition to amend The Constitution
was offered with the view of removing these fea-
lures one other object also, was TO procure the
abolition oil capital punishment. The majority
against the proposed revision was about equal to
the majority which gave Mr.. Polk the electoral
y vote OF the State The democracy" of New
Hampshire have distinguished themselves by the
warmth OF their sympathy for MIR. Dorr-being
more solicitous to change the constitution of a,
mother State illegally than TO make legal reforms
In their own. 1t was in New Hampshire that
Dorr took refuge after his flight from Chepachet.
The Governor of New Hampshire refused to
give him up when demanded by the authorities OF
fhode Island; and from that period dates the
transformation of the coward into the hero. the
traitor into a martyr.-BaK. .9mer

"THE FAIR PROPOSITIONS

The Richmond Enquirer, in speaking of the
numbers which appeared in the Wing, under the
above head in the course of the last Spring, CIV
ing the history of the Bank and Tariff questions,
as connected with the old Federal and Democrat
&c parties, calls them the "Un-Fair Proposition"
How is this u? If we recollect Alright, the name
was given to those numbers because of the pro-
position made TO the Enquirer, at the outset, that
if that paper would publish them the Wing would
publish its replies, and thus the readers of each
might have the opportunity of seeing what could
be said both sides. Now what was there
Unfair in that? The Enquirer, it is true, for rea-
sons best known to itself, declined the PROPOSE
ton but it opened its columns, late in the can
vass, to pretended review Of those numbers,
without having published them, conducted in a
very exceptionable and Liberal spirit. From
this view of the facts, therefore, we should say
it was "Fair Proposition,' most unfairiy met.

WHAT SAY YOU BOYs 2

The evenings are nearly as long as they
will be during the cold season: suppose you
spend two hours of each in some useful study.
This would make fourteen hours per week, that
would make sixty hours per month, and three
hundred hours by the first of April. Think Of it.
Lay out system ofstudes, and persue il faithful
ly, and if you do not know more, and are not wi
ser, and consequently better fitted for the praci-
cal duties oflife, we shall be exceedingly disap-
pointed. These two hours per diem will not at all
encroach upon the time necessary to read the news
paper. The study Of any Of the sciences will, in
fact. give increased zeal for the lighter and more
practical contents which fill the columns of we'll
conducted news sheet. The head Of family, who
would cultivate taste for study and for knowl-
edge among his children, should not fail to keep
continually within reach Of every member Of the
domestic circle, the newspaper.-Nat Int.

NEW HAMPSHIRE.

The Presidential vote of New Hampshire, in
all but three towns, is thus stated by the Con
cord Pariot--For Mr.. Clay 1908, for Mr.. Polk
26'929; majority for Mr.. Polk 1896. The Abo-
lition vote is about 1000.

The result of the vote for President in this
State, IN nnety-two counties, is as follows: For

majority TO the latter of 1899, and Leaving the
county OF Ware to be heard from, which gave a
Locoioco majority of III votes in October The

than was cast in 1910. and upwards of 5000 more
than in October last.
LOUISIANA.
The New Orleans Bee publishes unofficial re-
turns from all the parishes of Louisiana, and
makes MIR. Folks majority esd. If there had
been fair vote in Plaquemines, and Polk had
obtained there the same majority (2lO) that Van
Buren, did in 1910, instead of 07O as the fraudu-
lent votes gave him, Mr.. Clay would have carried
me State by IS votes. So that it appears that the
iriaquemines fraud, if allowed, will carry the
State for Polk.

The New York Tribune of Wednesday has

The New York Tribune of Wednesday has
the following paragraph;
Since it has become generally known that Mr..
Secretary Bib is lending large amounts of the
public money to brokers', several applications
have gone on from this city. If Messrs. Coch-
ran e. Riggs, broking house in Washington,
can have Sl,20O,O0o of Government funds, and
MIR. Dodge of Georgetown, ID. G. $50 900, with
ont interest, the Wall street brokers think it
scarcely justice that they should be obliged to
pay money lenders six and seven per cent An
application was made to-day for a loan on Sc
shares Vicksburg and another on 100 on North
American Trust. Seriously, can any one give US
the law under which Mr.. Secretary Bibb deposits
this enormous amount Of twelve hundred thou
sand dollars of the money Of the people in the
hands OF private brokers? We by no means
wish to be understood as saying any thing dis
respectful of Cocbrane g. Riggs. Any house
wonid do precisely as they have done, if the OPP
portunity offered. But we speak of the conduct
OF the Secretary. The people have expressed in
the strongest manner their aversion to the Sub
Treasury system, and yet Mr.. Bibb, on his own
responsibility, has established it, in its worst
shape Congress should make an investigation
OF this matter Immediately on the opening of the
session.
