TIT.BITS OF HISTORY.


M'kenzie, the Canadian patriot and A.
merican Locoioco, who says that, had he
voted in November, is44, he should have
voted for Polk, gives rather an interesting
description Of Lewis Cass in the notes 10
his Life and Times of Martin Van Buren,.
We commend that brochure Of M'kenzie's,
by the way, TO general circulation. 1twas
written in ls46, end presents very rich
materials 10 the curious, an illustration Of
the Third Party that has been raised by
Mr.. Van Buren,, in the State of New York.
All the Free.soi leaders figure extensive.
y in these pages. r.
Mkenzie saws many very clever and a
muslng things about Cass, and they are the
more piquant from the fact that they come
from one Of the party. He says among
other things: "Cass is rich very rich
and, like Van Buren,, pery fond of money
He made fortune by monopoli=ing, thro
his station, means, and superior credit
much Of the laad close to and around De
troit az an early day, kept a sort Of lana
Office, and sold them out ia lots at immense
profits. on bend and mortgage, gradually
as The city increased"
We suppose lha, it is this very " land
office" that figures in Cass's account as
Indian superintendent. The U. States, for
eighteen years. paid the rent of that office,
as we'll as the fuel and stationary for IL, al
the rate Of 81 500 year. Cass proba.
bly,. did no, have one office as Governor
another as Indian superintendent, er ofcio,
another as Indian supe rintendent out oil
Michigan. another as land agent, &C., &c.
lie did not have separate office for every
separate capacity he figured ia; for such
an arrangement would have been useless,
he possessed the gift Of ubiqnify.
But Mkeoze brings Mr.. Wise into the
discussion Of the Governors wealth. He
says:
"When Wise, in Congress. had accused
him Of having 60, rich through Govern.
ment Jobs. agencies. and contracts. the
Globe. (BIair,) in April, ls40, replied. that
General Cass. while Governor Of the Ter.
rltory Of Michigan. bought tract Of land
on the verge of the infant city Of Detroit.
The sudden and rapid growth Of the city
converted this farm into city lots, which
General Cass sold for an immense sum Of
money. His fortune consists in the Blonde
and Mortgages obtained on The public sale
of real estate, which he purchased in The
early settlement Of Michigan
We are rather inclined to think that
N kenze, Mr.. Wise, and the Globe, are
all right. 1t would have required many
fat Jobs, agencies, and contracts, besides
the Farm At Detroit, to cover all Lewis
Cass's immense expenditures, and account
for his present enormous wealth. We wish
Mr.. Wise would examine this matter with
more attention, and let US have the results
If his investigation. In our judgment Lew.
g Cass is incomparably the most corrupt
public man that ever figured in our history
and We believe tina, Henry A. Wise con.
cuss with US in this opinion. We shall
look into The Congressional speeches re.
ferred to BY M'kenkie, and we shall. re.
fresh Mr.. Wise's memory with them in
season for his next speech to the People Of
Virginia.

Pleasant Mistake.

In our last by calculation we made, we
gave the State to Reid. We could no, per.
form more pleasan, task, than to correc,
the error, and now assure our readers that
Chas. Manly is elected Governor BY about
500 majority. Ia all the early returns from
the election, Iredell was set down a, some.
thing like 7G0 majority, and upon tina, ma.
jority our calculation was based but i, has
turned out that the new county Of Alexan.
der, a part Of old lredell, was not counted,
in which several hundred votes majority
were given to Manly, carrying i, up to
loss: this amount, with errors in two or
three Of the reported returns, differing ma.
terIally with the official statements, has
made difference in ManIys favor Of five
or six hundred, unexpected gains in Cher.
okee and Caldwell made the rest of the
difference.
So erroneous were the first returns, that
when only four or five counties we're TO be
heard from by report, II seemed that only
a fortunate turn could secure Manly's clec.
ton; and no two papers agreed in their
calculations, some claiming the State by n.
bout goo majori,y for Manly, some by 400,
md some by smaller and larger najor,ies,
While Others conside red the issue doubtful.
I has turned out however that Reid. and
u his Democratic compeers for The Sen.
lie and Commons, could no, get elected

1t is conceded by all classes that this
