We cordially concur in the following compl-
ment OF the Scion of Democracy TO Senator
Newman. We cannot spare him from our coun-
ellis. For his consistency frmness, zeal and
ability in defending the cause OF Democracy, he
deserves the thanks Of the Republican party OF
the State He was fully tested in the trying
scenes Of last winter and played his part like a
man. Now that we are on the wave Of pros
peri,y, we wish all our good men TO assist in
keeping the vessel ON her forward course. We
appeal 10 The Democrats of the Wheeling Dis
tic. not 10 suffer their worthy Senator TO quit
their service:
awe see by communication in tile last
Wheeling Argus, that the rumor has gone abroad
that A. Newman, ESQ., the present Senator Tor
that district, conlemplaes resgning his seat. We
hope such is no, the TACT, although know he has
contemplated resignation for some time past
We desire that he should stick 10 his present post
if il is at all possible, under the circumstances 10
do So MIR. Newman has done good service TO
The State. There is not more unhinchng De-
mocrat in il, Coming from district where The
influences and tendencies against Democratic
principles are very strong he has al all times
given an nnwavering support 10 the pure princi-
pies OF Republicanism and has thrown The weigh,
of his influence in favor OF popular rights, when
contendng with the corporate Institutions of The
State II is hoped that he will be able again 10
take his seat in The Senate OF the Stale, and make
one more effort TO obtain for the West what they
have 50 long and SO Justly demanded. High no.
nors yet await him; the people Of his district will
show their acknowledgements of his services when
ever The opportunity offers"

LEGISLATIVE PROTECTION.

We take pleasure in bringing TO The aid OF The
friends Of equal and just legislation Tor all The in
terests Of the country, the following sterling arii-
Gle from journal published in The heart OF The
manufacturing region II speaks the bold Ian
guaee of truth, despite the frowns and blandlsh-
ments OF The favored manufacturers around IT.
Ii is the echo of Northern Democracy 10 The de-
manls OF the South for equal justice TO all
Have not the partial iavors OF the Government
already given a sufficient impulse 10 manu!ac-
lures? DO not their swelling profits indicate with
certainty, that they are now placed on prospe-
porous footing and can stand up Tor themselves,
without the artificial support OF legislative inter-
ceive some share of public attenlion-not in the
shape OF direct aid, but in The more wise, simple
and Just form OF relief from bnrthens imposed By
Congress! She asks no tavors, but 10 be lei alone
10 pursue her own interests uniellered by legiSa-
ton While manufactures have sprung up 50
rapidly and enjoy so much prosperity, it is but
fair that the farmers should be allowed 10 make
the best bargains unchecked by the giant arm OF
Congress:
Erom The Uorccster (.]lass.) Paliadium.)
TmE TARirr.-While the manufacturers are
making dividends Of profit OF from 10 10 % per
cent we are assured, that We can hire one oi the
best farms in Worcester county for less than two
per cent. on its valuation but few years ago.
WHY is this? Will some one explain 10 us why
the great agricultural interest is thus depressed,
whiIa The comparatively unmportant interest Of
manufactures is almost burdened with accumu-
lated profits
Men who are thus hauling in dividends, hand
over hand, will never stop 10 explain the source
OF their gains; but they who are oppressed By
The operation Of the same system, may we'll pom
der and ask for lis reaSonableness or its Justice.
The present Administration IS pledged 10 give
freedom to industry and trade from the shackes
imposed upon them by Congress acting for the
benefit of favored classes Yet We are not with
out our fears Some who claim 10 speak the
sentiments Of the party in power, are much in
clned to couple ''inclental protection" with the
| idea OF revenue tariff; and although il is a
harmless phrase, when properly guarded and re-
| strcted, yet there is in it an inherent power Of
expansion capable OF covering almost any abuse
which Congress, acting for favored class, may
choose 10 nhict upon the country The great
| New England manufacturers will be perfectly
satisfied with the doctrine Of incidental protec
lion, only allow them 10 give The phrase their
| own Interpretation.
Ii is due 10 The great agricultural class that
the Government should relieve them from all
such restrictions as forbid them buying and sell
ing TO the best advantage. II is due TO the indus
| nv of the country, that the burhen Of taxation
| unequally imposed, should be lightened by dis
pensing with all taxation, not absolutely neceS-
sary for revenue. Will The Democracy be true
10 its professions, and see that il is done?"

% There was considerable of an Abolition
fracas at Madison, Indiana, yesterday morn
ing. The circumstances, we learn from The
clerk Of The Importer, are thesei--some time
since, a free mulatto stole several negroes at
Harr d8barg, 10 This state, and carried them
TO Indiana. On a demand fromrthe Governor
of This State upon The Governor Of Indiana to
deliver the kidnapper TO the authorities OF
Kentucky. Gov. Whitecomb issued a war
rant for his arrest. He was arrested BY the
Sheriff Of Jefferson county, Ia, aud delivered
to Mr.. Blackstone, an officer from this State
who took him on board the Importer yesterday
morning, at Madison, for The purpose Of BRING
Ing him. While the Importer was lyidg al
that place the Abolitionists managed to have
a writ Of habeas aprpes issued tobrlng him be-
lore q court. The Sheriff sent three Of his
deputies on board with the writ, who were
about breaking the door of the state-roum 0.
pen, which MI. Blackstone and the negro oe'
cnpled, when the captain oil The boat told them
not 10 do il. Mr.. Blackstone then opened the
door, holding q loaded pistol in each hand,
and told the deputies that e they wanted to
take the prisoner, they must take him over his
dead body. The deputies, seeing Mr.. Black
stone so determined, desisted, and the prison.

4 stNouLAR Tsc1DESr.-We learn from the
National Intelligencer that a stranger, who
said he c lme from the State of Ohio, aud who
gave in his naue as Milton Fowler, was fonud,
on the 25tii ilt.i IN the Presidents house, un-
der very suspicious circumstances He ih-
truded himself into The private rooms, and
" as found walking about the house with an
open ~claspknife in his hand. Being asked
by u gentleman what he was doing there, the
stranger Immediately asked the gentleman If
he was the President, and being answered in
the negative, The stranger remarked to tho
gentleman that be had no right to question
him, or words to that effect. An officer being
sent for, the stranger was tHkon before a jus
iice, and committed to Jail for safe keeping
and further examination. The man talked
somewhat incoherently before The examining
magistrate. About The person Of The t~nysteris
Gus stranger were found two loaves ofbfead
and Two bottles Of wihel lie was probably

CURING HoRsEs' EvEs.-There is no dis.
ease so prevalent among horses at the South
as that of bad eyes. This is no donbt owing
TO the practice Of putting them under the sad.
die before they are sufficiently strong. There
is an affection Of the spine, manifesting itself
by diseased eyes. We have a very beautiful
animal about 6 years old, affected in this way
and from this cause. One eye is almost use.
less, although inflammation was entirely moved
by a seton leaving the pupil white. The other
eye became lndamed, covered with a blush
film, and thick white spots had risen over near.
ly half the eye v hen al the suggestion of an
experienced stable keeper we had bled her al
the nose by thrusting a pen knife into the soft
flesh just above the noStril. The result was
immediate reduction Of the inflammation and
restoration of sight, after a second incisiou.
The same gentleman has recovered the e, es
of two horses in the same way, which see med
entirely gone-one Of them having actually
sunk in the head. We consider the remedy
an excellenfoney and the matter of sufficient
interest TO give it publicity. The knife should
be employed every two or three days, until
cure is effected, which viii almost certainly
take place. At least, we have full confidence
in the remedy. Many very valuable horses
may be saved, in this simple way from becom-
ing entirely tlind.-Rich. Star.
