A DIsGRACEFuL CoNFEssroN.-In a long pO-
litical article upon Gen. Taylor's Presidency,
Published recently in the Washington Union,
we find the following remark able confession:
"The Democratic leaders feared most that
he would administer the government in that
spirit Of liberality and conciIiation which he
had promised, aud that thus he would be the
great instrument Of %disorgahizing their party,
which would cause them years Of hard and
patient labor to reconstruct"
Tais acknowledged fear, entertained by the
Democratic leaders. proves two things very
concluslvely-frst that those leaders love
their party better than they do the country
and, secondly, that however fully their feaT
might be realized by General Taylor, they
would endeavor to convince the people that
the government had net been administered
in conformity to that spirit Of liberality and
Cancellation which they deprecate. 1t has no
~fallensto our lot to chronicle q more disgrace
full admission, among the many that have re-
Gently been made by the Washington Union
than t%his-that the Locof, co leaders fear a goot
government, because of its inevitable tendency
to the Reorganization of the Locofoco party
VIcEsburg Whig.

Members of the Wing party are too much
disposed in the bestowaI of office to "discrimi-
nate" 10 favor Of their political opponent e, as
if anxious to ~signalizs themselves by a display
Of magnanimity beyond their day and genera
ton, and seldom practiced towards themselves.
They literally "muzzle the OK which treadelh
out the corn,h and unmuzzle those bipeds
which have been constantly attempting 10 break
into and destroy the crop. The effect of this
is to p~aralize the exerLions Of their most ardent
and efficient co-labotcrs, and render them
"woary of well doing" in a cause in which
they have received more kicks than coppers
for their pains. We admit ne mau should be
paid for merely doing his duty; but neither
should his Just claims TO consideration be over
looked or neglected. Rewards and punish
ments must be certain as we'll as immediate to
produce .hoir proper effect ON human actions
and we are inclined to believe if virtue did not
carry with it its own reward, in this life az
well as The next, that rocompense which is on
the other side Of the grave would be too. re-
moe to prevent thousands from falling a prey
to temptation by the way. Man is "prone to
err as the sparks to fly upwards" and the
narrow path of duty and patriotism cannot be
rendered too attractive by all the flowers
which mortals can strew along its borders.
While men have bodies as we'll as souls, they
cannot be expected to live on the grateful in
cense which rises from the fame of good actions;
their material natures imperiously require,
and must have something more substantial
than that. These thoughts are suggested by
the results of the late election, in which good
wings, of superior qualifications, were bartered
traded and sold Tot Cass . en- US if to show the
unsubstantial and uncertain rewards of party
services, and to deter all sensible men, hereafter,
from putting faith in the gratitude or the
justice of party. Party should not ask its vo-
taries to go it blind or to prefer the unwor-
thy nominees to the worthy i! dependent can
didate; but where our friends have weight Of
qualifications, why should they desert them to
give preference TO incompetent and unrelenting
opponents. The Cass men are seldom guilty
of such a desertion to their standard bearers,
and hence the principal element Of their sue
cess .-SoathrOn.

AusTRIAN B%UTCHERIEs.

The Austrian authorities are, i seems, lnsa-
liable of Hungarian blood. The smallest real
offence. or the least ground for imagiring one,
sufices to let loose the harpies Of desPOtism
upon those whom the late Hungarian reverses
has placed within their reach. One Of the
most affecting of the recent murders was that
Of Louis Count Batthiany, late Prime Minister
of Hungary. He was convicted of having as
sisted in the evoluticn-sentence was publish
ed on the 9th Of October, and on the 9th he
was shot. At the time Of his execution he
was suffering from wounds inflicted by his
own hand, with a knife which his wife STEALTH
ily sent to his cell. Il does not seem to have
been cowardice that prompted these attempts
to selEdestruction, but a strong contempt Of
the ipnominy of the death which awaited him.
He was to have been hung, and hanging by
A ustria, was not to be calmly awaited by his
proud spirit. He was successful in avoiding
the rope; the wounds he inflicted being Of such
a character a 10 render necessary a change in
the mode of ex ecution. When the hour came,
he refused all assistance and walked calmly
to the place Of murder, and was shot, exclnim-
ing, as he fell E5in c nGsG'-' My country
forever 1t is said that Hungarian ladies' Of
high rank sought to dip their handkerchiefs in
his blood, but were rePulsedby the %Soldiery
The death Of the magnute was the signal for
tumults which the government was obliged to
suppress by more strenuous measures against
the conquered.
Thirteen persons have been lately executed
at Atad. 1t is said that KsaDgi, the late Min
lister, and Baron Clossenak have been hanged
The whole Of the property and effects Of the
murdered fell 70 the crown.
We find these items in the news by the Hi
hernia. Later advices inform us that the Aus
trian butcher Haynau has resigned, in conse
quence Of an order to suspend his atrocities,
1t is hoped that this may prove an indication
of a better spirit towards the conquered Hun
garians. If vengeance has not been satisfied,
tits no doubt, thought time that policy should
stay the preparation of a%trocity; and we
have no doubt that policy dictated the order
to Huynau to which we have just alluded.

FROM THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.

The following is from the Alta Californian
Of the 28th September,
SPY the arrival Of the French lrigate Pomsu-
yantc, Admiral Tremelin, we have received
advices from Honolulu to the 9th inst. The
news is Of Importance, but we have only room
for a summaryof the strange events which
have lately transpired there. NJ. Dillon, the
French consul, has for som time been at log
g~erheads with the government upon the sub
iect Of Catholic rights and brandy. About the
10th of August, the Poursuivunte and a war
steamer arrived, when NJ. Dillon made certain
demands upon the government, threatning them
with "grsat guns" in case Of noncompliance.
The demands as near as we can learn, were
first a reduction Of duties on brandies and Ii
quors Of one-half, and the return Of one half of
all such duties as have been collected since
1886: I'd. the same rights Of Catholics and
their schools as are granted to Protestants;
80, the repeal Of a law which compels whale
ships, importing liquor for sale, to pay port
charges; 18th, the remission Of a fine imposed
on some captain Of a whale ship. There were
some minor demands relative to "redress'' and
..satisfaclion,' for indignities and insults Of
feted to the Grand Republic. These demands
were made, and three days allowed for the gov
eminent to comply or refuse, The King being
absent, the Admiral waited until his return,
when the government refused to comply with
the demands, the French troops landed and
took possession Of the Tort. No resistance be-
ing offered, the gallant fellows spiked and
threw from the ramparts the guns Of the Fort
destroyed the ammunition and public stores,
and took all the Hawaiian vessels that were in
port. The Hawaiian flag was lowered, anc
the French hOisted. After the quiet possession
Of the fort for three days, the French abandon.
ed it, and retired on board their vessels. The
Kings Yacht, Kamehameba III, was mannet
with Frenchmen, and dispatched, it is suppos.
ed to Valparaiso, the steamer sailed for Tahiti
and the Poursuivante, with M. Dillon and fam
ily, sailed for this place, where she arrived
Tuesday evening. M. Dillon and family lav,
taken passage for Panama, in the steamer Ore
gon, from which place he goes to France, III
New York. The British Consul General an,
the American Consul protested against the &C
ton Of the French forces. The British Consu
General offered this services as mediator bu
was refused. Itis uncertain what the result q
all this may be, but the general impression
. that M. Dillon has exceeded his powers, an
that his acts will be denounced by his govern
ment. This belief is strengthened BY his SUE
dan departures and his anxiety to be the fir
to represent the matter to his W govern
le ment.D
