la the new constitution of Sardinia, there is a
clause which is emnenily liberal, and yet conser-
vahve in lts tendency. The elective franchise is
granted to all subjects who read and write, and

vision is made by the government for the education
Of the people. Ne nation in Europe is advancing
with such rapidly on the road TO political, religious
and Intellectual independence. The Sandman
parliament seems to have comprehended two
things clearly, and gone boldly TO their execu-
ton first that the time has come when State,
10 act unshackled and free, must throw off the in-
cubus of ecclesiastical dctation; secondly, that no
sure, permanent, and unfailing fouad alton for ibe
raj institutions can be laid except in the education
OF tie mass of the people. If all Europe can appre-
bend clearly these facts and as boldly march for
ward to their execution, the other side of the
Atlantic will ultimately achieve, with success, the
great experiment which we have SO efficiently
wrought out here, viz, of establishing the fair,
graceful, and enduring fabric OF democratic liberty,
upon the foundations of efete despotsm.

Veto message 81 Gov. Johnston.II


, We are greatly ,gratified ,owitnessl with
what unparalleled unanmity the Democrat.
ic presses ofthis State speay out against the
veto message of Gov. Johaston, onthe sub
ject of the recent Apporlionrhent Bill, by the
man who, when candidate for the post he
now fills, opposed the exercise of the Zone
man power''-who denied its constitutional
ty-and who solemnly pledged himself, in
the event of his election norto Interfere with
the,sentiments and will Of the people as exs
pressedby their represenlatives-Bnt alas
for him! this pledge, like evry other one
made by him, has been shamefully violated
And hence we think that the vetoing of the
late Apporlionment Bill, which had been dis
cussed and deliberated upon in our legisla-
tive halls for two morths, for the paltry rea-
sons set forth in his message, but caps the
climax of lis treachery. What talk about
the late Apportionment Bill, which in our
judgment, was fair and just, as being uncon-
slitutional, and yet affix his signature to a
law, releasing for twenty years, the Reading
Railroad Company from the payment of its
debts. Beautiful consistency this F! But
what else expect from him, who wormed
himself into office by deceptive appeals and
violated promisesa Echo answers nothing.

AsTI.RENT TRIAL.-The suit between the

the southern part of Columbia county on
the part of the state appears Attorney Gene
raj Chatfeld, assisted by John Van Buren,
and Theodore Miller; the defendant, Living
ston, has Killan Miller assisted by Josiah
Sutherland and Robert Mcclellan.
The defendants claim a nonsuit on the
ground that they have fully established pos
session, and that long enough TO debar the
State, without reference to paper title. On
the other hand, the prosecution insist that
the patents having been introduced by the
defence, and having been impugned by the
prosecution, the whole question of posses.
sion and proper title ought TO go TO the jury
Judge Wright did not decide on the motion
for nonsuit, but gave an opinion favorable
to the patent. Both parties then; waived the
sending of the case TO the jury, and agreed
TO argue ii before the same Judge, in this city,
on the 9th of next month. Judge w. is
then 10 take six months 10 give a decision.

BE a Little skeptical.

II has been remarked 10 us by an observ-
ing friend tn at those who were the warmest
advocates of Senator Besls nomination have
become the most violent of his ,denouncers.
They feel that they have much 10 atone for,
and believe that by being noisy and heaping
bitter words in profusion upon the late object
of their love, they can escape the public at
.,ention and merited condemnation for their
hcresy. Those who once doated upon him
as ,he idol of their dearest affections, now
traduce him with a malignity that has no pa
rallel in decency and no excuse in reason.
After witnessing his baseness for the last
len years, and seeing his unprincipled reck-
lesness glare out year after year, these pure
men pretend that they did not know him in
ls47, when they strainea every nerve 10 Sc
cure his nomination They had seen him
the abandoned, double dealing editor of two
different sheets Janus-faced at work for
both clques, just as they would pay. They
had seen him exulting oyer The defeat OF
regularly nominated candidate for U. States
Senator; and slyly rejoicing at every triumph
OF The rionopolists over the cause of the
people And yet these wissacres pretend
that they did not know him They are as
tonished and shocked at his treason
Why the whole political course of his life
has been of piece with his recent treach-
ery. He has been ever as ho is now, a man
with whom politics is a game, and principle
nothing. He regards all fraud fair in politi-
cal controversy. He worships expediency,
and cares not for right or truth.
But his character had been tested, and the
trial should have satisfied every Democrat
who had ever heard of Best. Those who
swallowed his pledges were too credulous
10 be reliable politicians They were of too
easy virtue to be proof against skilful decep-
.ion. They proved themselvesto be blind
guides and though we do not now find our
selves called upon 10 impeach the honesty Of
their motives, yet ii is not unfair to say that
,hey lacked the foresight 10 read character "a
right, or 10 heed the voice of warning expe-
rience.
Il is TO be regretted that men are compell-
ed TO learn the same lesson over and over a
gain in life. One misfortune should make
US wise upon one point at least. There are
men of whose character and honesty 1t IS "a
merit to de suspicious; and we should ever
remember that a man who will forfeit his ho-
nor will not scruple TO violate his promise.
In Is47, we warned the over-creduous a.
gainst trusting to promises and professions.
but there were those who preferred to learn
over again the dear thought lessons OF past
experience. We can wash onr hands clean
of the disgrace and shame brought upon The
Democratic party by the baseness and treach'
cry of Best, and we have charity enough tc
wish that all others of our protesting political
brethren could "ss and do likewise" /" "

The Revenus of the U. S. Government for
the present fiscal year, it is said, will reach
forty-three millions of dollars, or twelve mill
ions more than the Secretary Of the Treasury
supposed it would be. We see, however.
that Congress is disposed not to allow the
Treasury to overflow, for the appropriations
TO both army and navy reported are enorm-
Gus. They, will, however be materially cu
down before they are passed. Among the
appropriations reported are the following
