We see paragraph in the papers informing US OF
IN editor being in luck, either by some wealthy
old Spanish aunt shuilng of her mortal coil and
leaving him handsome fortune, by last will and
testament, or by being appointed to some lucrative
Office by the new administration, with handsome
salary attached to it.
We are glad to see that the venerable gentleman
who oHiciated in tbs imporian, position Of organ
grinder TO the late administration, has met with
windfall. Mr. Richie has labored long and
hard in the service Of his country, or rather OF
his party-but we suppose they are synonymous
with him and certainly is deserving Of some
token Of gratitude, If we do not wish practically
to prove the old maxim, that republics migrate
ful. Such memorial has been presented It u
in he form of resolution, passed by meeting OF
democrats in Mississippi, and the complimentary
manner in which it - couched induces W. to give
1t IN full. Here goess-
Resolved, That We hereby tender to Thomas Ritohe,
meats for his able untring and faithful guards
OF the constitution and the rights u the peoples aud
especially for the seasonsble, nerited aud dignned
cAstgations inflicted by his pen, upon tho author Of
broken pledges and his agents and councillors in the
work Of proscrptvs death.
Well may Father Richie be proud Of this token
OF gratitude, and we hope IT will make him forget
the trifling changes which overlook him in the
management of the Union, since tho installation
Of the new President. If we estimate the loss
which he has suffered by being relieved Of the
government patronage at one hundred thousand
dollars. and value this excruciatingy fine resolu-
ton at ono hundred and fifty thousand we shall
zee that Mr.. Ritchle has gained clear fifty thou
sand t,n glory by being presented with il. What
