SENSE AND NoNsENsE.-Mr. c. J. Ingersol, in the
course of rambling speech on the Oregon resolution
just before the House went to voting, made this odd
profession Of faith;
He (Mr. ~ was not much given 10 heroics, but he
had great faith in nonsense. Tie Winthrops and
Pendletons of former days always appealed to tie
nonsense of the people, and acted upon it. When the
Boston people rose and Lynched the tea, it done
from sober second thought Was 1t not the off
spring of popular feeling. or nonsense, All of US,
and all that boasted of the offspring of
sense; this magnificent hall in which we assemble
the creation of nonsense. And l confess (said
Mr.. - that have more faith in popular nonsense
than in the selfish. second thought Of the wisest
in the world. Mr. /. said he growing old
and he had acted on nonsense all his life and always
expected to do so.

REFoRMArIoN-Duringt the last year, there has been
great reformation among the convicts in our State
Prison. Under the humane management of the Gov.
Whitcomb, and the officers of the prison, and espe-
cally that of the chaplains, many have been led to
know the truth, and have sought salvation by peni-
tence, declaring their faith by being baptized and
Meeting themselves with the church. We notice a
communication in the New Albany Democrat Of the
18th inst, stating that the last Lords day. chap
lain John E. Noyes preached in the State Prison al
Jacksonville, and after the discourse baptized three
of the prisoners in the Ohio river As usual, large
number of the prisoners attended the solemn
ny, not attempting to escape from custody. How
gratifying these facts must be- not only to the Execu
tive and the officers, but to all philanthropists.

GOLD DoLLAR.-Judge Douglas has made a move
ment in Congress to mingle tie gold dollar with our
currency. The Washington Union says:
''This coin has been long known in the hard money
countries Of the world. We have seen it in Turkey
about the size of dime, yet much thinner and have
considered 1t the very best representation of value in
existence. 1t is there put into roleaux of fifty pieces
occupying the space of a small cigar, and packed in
little perfumed purses for the ladies' and the higher
order of society. Such coin could be RENTED I'M
der seal from one end Of the country to the other,
and would be a vast improvement upon the present
currency. We tlust the committee of ways and
means will see to this matter. When a vast amount
of these valuable coins shall be thrown into crcula-
ton, they Will drive out the small bills that to
Danish specie from the every day currency of the
country Such dollar would not be boarded up in
banks private repositories; but would for ages cir
culate without loss by ABRASION coin for the peo-
pie"
We strongly hope that Congress will adopt the
suggestion of Judge Douglass, though confess we
fear we shall not be gratihed

1.-The circulation of the free banks it is observable
has increased in far greater ratio than that of the
corporate banks. including the change of two banks
from the latter to the former The circulation Of the

make sad havoc with the circulation There is near

mately valuable and S3l 500 towards tie Wabash

The approach Of hostiles will be felt in the drain
of specie into the Canadian vaults and the collapse
which the whole currency must in consequence under

banks which are started for purposes Of circulation
without capital The precipitation of the securities
held by them upon market, the stringency of which
caused the failure, would make them unsuitable and

TIE LEXINGTON MURpER.-The Lexington muir
der proves be of the most aggravated that has
taken place in Kentucky since that of Col. Sharpe,
many years ago. There some cause for that, but
the killing Of young Horton has no pallation. The
provocatiOn merely taking the seat generally
signed to Shelby the dinner table, and gazing &C.
casionally the latter during the meal After rising
Shelby demanded Of the deceased an explanation.
which, according TO correspondent Of the Cleveland
Herald, ga few other words uttered by Shelby
when he, standing before Horton with both hands in
pockets, drew his left hand from his pocket and
slapped Horton over the head to find whether he
would fight with fists pistols" Horton stepped
back as soon as struck and in the act of throwing
back his cloak, when the wretch, Shelby, drew pis-
FOL from his pocket and shot him dead
He fell as the pistol was fired, and never
spoke again-when Lifted up lie was dead. Thus was
a young of good moral and religious standing in
society, sent, in moment when he least expected 1t,
to the bar of God. Sheby's friends have offered
100000 to bail him out but it Is decided not to be
n bailabe case. His trial will be of interest and
deep excitement. Henry Clay will probably be en-
ployed in the prisoners defence. The celebrated Tom
Marshall las been secured to aid in the prosecution
