the following extract. which is going the rounds
of the anti bridge opposition press:

ing an examination of the premises, with view
to the question Of building bridge At Rouse's
Point for the accommodation Of the Vermont e.

ly without foundation. Two out of the three
Senators comprising the Committee, we're known
to have et Rouse's Point fully impressed 10 IA
vor Of the Bridge. The sentiments of their as
sociate were not ascensined but il was fully

unqualified, In every sense, for the station he as.
stunned; consequently the press fell, temporarily,
into the hands Of Judge Krum, who has at last
been successful in placing it in permanent and
competent hands. The valedictory Of friend
Buckner, and the address of Capt. Foster, are
both good documents. The former resumes the

THE TEXAS BOUNDARY BILL.

The last of the series Of measures embraced
in the celebrated Compromise bill, reported by
the committee Of Is, has finally passed both
branches Of Congress. 1t passed The House by
a vote of los to 81.
The Delegation from Missouri stood for it
Messrs. Green, Hall, Bay and Bowlin. Against
it Nutmeg Phelps had the eternal infamy of stand
ing "~solitary and Alone" and maniiesting a dis
position to stave off paci6catiou, at the expense
of the integrity of the Union.
All honor is due the true friends Of the Union
for their untiring efforts to the ends accomplish
ed by the passage Of these measures. A halt
of glory e~ncircies the brows of Clay and Cass
and the peoples hearts acknowledge a debt o
gratitude to them and their co.laborers. Tit
same combination that had defeated the compro
mise measures in one bill, were unable to deiea
them in detail. While the real friends Of tn
whole country stood firm for them all, they wer'
aided alternately by votes drawn from both ex
tremes. Benton, Seward, Hale & Co., opposing
the Texas boundary Bill, but voting for the Cali

LARCENRY.

During the last few months, burglaries Of va
rious degrees have in certain portions Of our
county, become common, ane, in some instances,
grown daring. 1t has been strongly suspected
by some of our citizens, that a few characters
have located in our county for the purpose Of
carrying on a regularly organized system Of
thieving. Several daring and successful attempts
have been made during the summer in the vicin-
ity Of Prairieville. In the early part Of last
week the store Of Mr.. Jacob Crow, at Crows
Cross Roads, was fo.cibly entered at night, and
robbed Of a considerable amount Of merchandise.
Suspicion fell upon Two or three fellows named
Sanders, who were subsequently arrested. Two
Of the parties were taken under suspicious cir
cumstances, lurking in thicket in that neighbor-
hood, and goods found with them believed to be

Now, what in the name Of wisdom, has "hard
money" to do with his appeal? Or what afini'
ty is there between hard. money and nullif-
cation and d%isunion? The old h~umbugger is
hard up for a subterfuge. He says "the

deedii how is It then that the appeals sustain

wonderful grace this charge comes from the
old traitor, who coaxed, wheedled, and ~flattered
the wings in his speeches through the State, il
