The Ancient and Honorable Artillery mt
Boston.

This illustrious corps celebrated their 2l3th

the Boston Courier was delightful for military
parade, and the ranks very full. Though
the proceedings Of this occasion very similar
to those of former years, they nevertheless, in

sat General Wool and others, more or less distn-
guishcd. The first regular toast was

| Of his illustrious predecessor"
This was received with great applause.

OTHER WILD AND WICKED PROJECTS OF Demo
CRATIC ADMINISTRATIONS"

OTHER WILD AND WICKED PROJECTS OF Demo
CRATIC ADMINISTRATIONS"
Our former extracts from Mr.. BucHANAN's
Grafton were made with the view Of correcting
the errors of a contemporary in regard TO the
administration. The passages which we pre-
sent above we have selected for the purpose of
showing what kind of "Democrat" Mr. BU-
cHANAN is, if we are to test his Democracy by
the favorite touchstone of the Union. II we
are TO go half a century back to find the topics
to quarrel about, how does Mr.. BUCHANAN
stand on those points, Or is Mr.. BUCHANAN TO
be read out of the ranks2 And, if not pw are
we to reconcile the obvious Inconsistencies be-
tween Mr.. BUcHANAN's view of the old De
mocratic party and that which is PRESENTED by
our contemporary Of the Union?
If we are to credit Mr.. BUCHANAN, the old
DEMOCRATIC party were regardless about the
means" by which they obtained power. Their
leaders, moreover, pretended" great solicit
tude for the welfare Of the people. They OPP
posed raising san army or navy for our defence"
against the insults and the threatened invasion
1Aeed under the command of WAsHINGroN,
they charged that it was destined to overthrow
American liberties, and denounced the expen
ditures it involved. They not only cleft com
merce unprotected, and invited insult and in
justice from abroad,'' but they " declared
,car against commerce." and, by ''aets Of par
ricide," struck at the prosperity of their coun-
try. Not only was the policy of the Demo-
cratic Presidents weak and wicked, but the
fourth of July, one Of the longest days in the
year, did not allow time TO Mr.. BUCHANAN to
enumerate all 'their wild and wicked pro-
jects."
Such is the historical sketch which the gra-
phic pen Of Mr.. BUCHANAN has preserved of
the early DEMOCRATIC administrations. How
different it looks from the rose colored paintings
of the Union! And is Mr.. BUCHANAN ever to be
forgiven for these heresies We should think
it not unlikely that the DEMocRArIc statute of
limitations might be pleaded to these early
transgressons, and these errors of opinion, were
it not that the DEMOCRATIC organs are SO con-
tinually going back to see whether or not man s
opinions are right on things that took place
many years before most of us were born. This
indicates disposition to place the controversy
on issues that will distress some Of the older
candidates, and none more than Mr.. BUCHANAN;
and we are not quite sare that all these
points on '9S and 1900 are not made by Young
America for the purpose of getting rid of "the
old Federalsts."
Having brought Mr.. BUcHANAN's political
views down to the time of the war Of 1912, we
shall suspend our labors. On another day we
will crafty Mr.. BUcHANAN's Richmond cor
respondents with his views on our second war
of independence.

JENNY LIMBS ENGAGEMENT WITH BARNuM TER
'MINATED.--A card from Mr.. Barnum states that
the engagement between himself and Miss Lind
for one hundred and fifty nights having contained
certain conditions on which the same might be ter
minated at the expiration of sixty or hundred
concerts it has been mutually determined to limit
them to the latter number. As ninety one have
already been given, there remain but nine, one OF
which will be given on Friday evening in New
York, and the remainder in Philadelphia and Bos-
ton, commencing in Philadelphia June 9th, and
Boston June 10th. Barnum and Miss Jenny Lind
are said to be upon the feelings of friendship
AZ at the time OF her engagement.
The New York Commercial states that Miss Lind
will very shortly return to Europe-most probably
before the 4th OF July

cellent sense, amiable manners, good habits of
business, and much experience with the people.
The great political objection to him will be,
that he rather showed the white feather in the
debate on the River and Harbor bill at the last
session. He. did not quite stand up to that
question as he ought to have done; and this
will no doubt embarrass his friends of the West
and Northwest, though he may have chance
to redeem himself at the next session.
But recent indications point TO another can
didate who seems TO be rapidly rising in favor
with the Democracy. We observ6ethat the
Union of yesterday copies from the Boston
Post a warm eulogium upon General WooI.,
which perhaps may have more significance
than would appear on the face of it. General
WooL occupies good position, being native
and a resident of the Empire State. He has
distinguished himself by eminent gallantry and
skill inGDhenHar Of 1912 and in the late war
with Md coZ He is implicated in no political
specialties; has never lodged any River and
Harbor bills; and, though consistent DEMO
GRAFT in his political course, we do not imagine
that he is enough of DEMOCRAT to prevent
him from making very good Chief Magis-
| trate. We think the civilians in the DEMO
CRATIC ranks had better be looking about them,
Tor General Wool will steal march upqG
them that will beat his march to chihuahua.
Though we have not exhausted the muster
roll of the DEMOCRATIC candidates for the Pre-
sidency, we have indicated the most prominent
Their case wilrof course be com plicated by fu-
ture developments; but, as matters now stand
it looks as if the Baltimore Convention would
find itself called upon to consider and weigh
the conflicting claims of the gentlemen we have
mentioned.

AMERICAN STEAMERS AGAIN TRIuMpHANT.-The
steamer Pacific has achieved another triumph for
the Collins line. She made her last outward pas
sage from New York to Liverpool in nine dnya
nineteen hours and twenty five minutes, mean
time. Liverpool account of the matter, dated
the Goth ult., says:
''The Pacific sailed from Now York precisely at
five minutes past twelve the 18th instant, was
announced off Hoyhead at eight O'Clock this morn
ing, and saluted the Rock lighthouse at fifteen
minutes past one O'Clock precisely, thus COM
pleting the run in tho remarkable brief space OF
nine days nineteen hours and twenty five minutes,
mean time. Contrasting the Pacifc's run with
that of the royal mail steamship Asia, (hc fastest
over previously made,) there is a difference in
favor Of the Pacific to Holyhead of six hours, the
Asia having been announced off Hoyhead at two
O'Clock in the afternoon"

From Oregon.

We have received Oregon papers to the 10Th OF
April.
The census of Oregon, just completed, amounts,
in the aggregate, to l3,343 persons. The Spscta-
tor estimates that there about 1000 of the last
immigration not included in the above.
The charter election at Portland took place on
the 7th Of April, and resulted in the election OF
Hugh ID. O'Brien, as mayor, Robert Thompson,
S. Norris, General A. Barnes, T. G. Robinson, and
l.. b. Hastings, as aldermen, and w. s. Caldwell,
as recorder. The council was subsequently, organ
lied.
A company was engaged in making extensive
arrangements for coal depot at or near tho mouth
Of the Cowlitz river. This coal had been thor
oughy tested and pronounced TO be very su-
pcrior.
The Oregonian is enlarged and otherwise i'm
proved in its typographical appearance.
Governor Lane and also the new surveyor gen.
cral, collector at Astoria, two judges, Indian
agents, postal agent, &C., were expected at Port
land
The Indians between the Salmon falls Cor Snake
river) and Powder river were becoming hostile TO
the whites This change Of disposition is attrbut-
cd to the reckless conduct of the immigrants along
that route.
Arrangements have been perfected for the i'm
mediate erection of large steam Touring mill at
Portland.
The steamer Willamette, as one of the line in
tended to ply between Portland and Now York, via
Panama and Chagres, is nearly completed, and the
Oregonian accordingly rejoices in the prospect OF
semi monthly news from the United States and
Europe.
The ocean steamer Columbia, Captain Leroy,
crossed the bars at the mouth Of the Columbia river
her last trip up. in the night This is the Sec
ond steamer (says the Oregonion) which has safe
ly crossed this bar without waiting for daylight.
Dr. John Mclaughlin was elected mayor Of Ore
gon city on the 18th insant.>
William Kendall, charged With the murder Of
Hamilton some time since, was tried at Salem last
week and convicted of murder in the first degree.
The Oregoninn says the hotels at Portland can
not be beat anywhere for cleanliness, good order
sumptuous fare, attentive servants, and gentle
manly hosts.
