The Administration.

If the present Administration have not mani
tested an honest desire to do their duty to their
own country and foreign nations, then there have
never been magistrates who did. They used the
means under their command to prevent the inva-
sion of Cuba, and when their good intentions were
defeated by the connivance of the collector at New
Orleans, they turned him out Of the office he had
betrayed.
They strenuously, at critical moment, held up
the shield of power to defend the Constitution, and
have ever since, without flinching, maintained a
bold and frank position in maintenance of the laws
passed in loyalty to that fundamental bond of
Union. For the sincerity of their professions of a
firm determination to execute the laws, they have
also given pledge in the elevation to the Supreme
Bench of Mr.. Curtis, in the room of Justice Wood.
bury Thus have they exhibited the impartiality
of an upright magistracy, which locke at right
and justice in the exercise of official trusts, with
out computing how they may affect the fanaticism
Of the North or the Vaccinations of the South.

AN Extensive SYPHoN.-Somc time ago pro-
position circulating in the western papers to
supply the Ohio river with water from Lake Erie
by means of huge canal. This proposition was
abandoned for the very sensible reason that the
head waters of the Ohio are about one thousand
feet higher than the surface of the lake, and, as
water generally refuses to uphill, it would
evidently be uphill business to force water
from Lake Eric into the Ohio. But the indefati-
gable Cincinnatians are cogitating plan for
coming this slight difficulty. The Commercial ays
ply could be drawn from the lake to point near
Portsmouth through syphons," and the Commercial
innocently asks sis it practicabe?" OF course,
the st. Louis Intelhgencer says, it's practicable!
The only trouble is the size OF the syphon' Make
one about one hundred feet diameter and about
fifteen miles high and there will not be the slight
est difficulty in draining the lake. BY the bye,
why not build syphon at Chicago and empty
Lake Michigan into the Mississippi? 1t would
create a splendid water power at this end of the
pipe.-Netc York Epening Post.

"Tippecanoe and Tyler too" in 1910. We were
disorganized in ls45 that we could not even get
State convention together to nominate cand
date for canal commissioner, and consequently al
most let the election OF that year go by default and
yet at the subsequent election in Is4s we not only
elected a Wing canal commissioner by ten thou
sand majority, but also majority of the member .
Of Congress and the State Legislature. The next
year our candidate for Governor beaten by
about seventeen thousand majority, while the year
following we elected Whig Governor and Whig
Legislature and gave the electoral vote Of the State
TO Taylor and Fillmore. Wings, take courage.

The LAW OF ALImoNv IN CoNNECTICUT.-Mrs.
Emeline S. Lyon obtained divorce from her hus-
band, James Lyon, in Fairfield county, about two
years since, and was allowed five thousand dollars
alimony by the court MIR. Lyon refused to pay
the almony. Mrs. l.. brought an action to recover
it, and also prayed the court to arrest MIR. Lyon
for not obeying its orders. The supreme court ad-
vised the superior court that it had authority to is
sue process for contempt, but it has not yet been
done. At the present term of the superior court
at Danbury, counsel for Mrs. l.. applied for writ
of ne e1eat, which granted after much discus
sion; II commands the sheriff to arrest the body
the sum of thousand dollars not to leave the
State without the permission of the superior court
to commit him to Danbury Jail. II is said that this
is the first writ Of ne Great issued in this State

"The series of measures to which ! have alluded
are regarded by me as q settlement, in principle
and substance-a final settlement-of the danger

By that adjustment we have been rescued from
the wide and boundless agitation that surrounded

to rest upon. And the occasion, trust Will JUS
iify me ExHoRTISo MY coUNTRYaEN TO RALLY

IPREsIDEHT FILLMoRE's MESSAGE.
az The Presidents message, at the opening OF the
present sesson Of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion of all
those associated with him in the Exec utive admin
istraton of the Government, in regard to what
are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea'
cures of last session. That opinion is that those
measures should be regarded in principle as
final settlement Of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from imperfechons, yet, in their
mutual dependence and connexion, they formed
n system of compromise the most concihatory
and best for the entire country that could De Cd
tanned from conflicting sectional interests and
opinions and that therefore they should be ad
hered to, until time ard experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further Legislation tc
guard against evasion abuse That opinion,
80 far as ! know, remains entirely unchanged,
and will be acted upon steadily and decisively
The peace of the country requires this; the Sc
curly of the Constitution requires this and every
consideration of the public good demands this

principles of the message, it does not expect to

GEORGETOWN AND ITS AFFAIRS.

GEORGETOWN, May ,27-12 m.
The Sabbath School Convention met last
night, and unanimously resolved to celebrate
| the coming anniversary of our independence in
the good old way, viz, all together. This is
as it should be. Upon this day, at least, all
sectarian or sectional feelings and prejudices
should be laid aside, and all meet together as
brothers, and unite heart and hand in celebrat-
ing our national birthday. The place selected
for the occasion is beautiful grove, upon the
ground Of the Canal company, within a few
rods of the southern terminus Of the aqueduct.
The old and injudicious custom Of meeting at
the Bridge street church, and remaining there
until the cool of the morning had passed away
has been abandoned, and each school is to pro-
ceed Immediately from their respective churches
to the place Of celebration.

The DUEL.-The bar-keeper ut the National

the difficulty on Sunday occurred in the bar
room. He says he allows no such things there.
We make the ameade The rumpus occurred
just outside of his domains, in the larger hall.
In this connexion we have two other little
points to notice for explanation. The first is,
that the intention to drink, to which the intro
duction was to be preliminary, was only pre-
missed bycertainw witnesses, and the presumption
may not be correct as regards some of the COM
pany. We have been well assured that, although
Mr.. Hooe is fallible gentleman, drinking is
not prominent among his failings, and he says
he did not mediate such an act then and there.
In the second place, it is said we were ambigu-
Gus in stating who had "skeeted" from the
limbs of the law. That was Mr.. Dallas, for a
surety; but, as Guy Goodluck, ESQ.,, says, he

"A LIVE YANKEE Horace Greeley, of the New

THE MACON DEFALcATIoN.-The Journal ana
Messenger furnish the following account of the
robberies perpetrated by the late Postmaster OF
Macon, who was also a factor:
Important Detauh-Our citizens have been
greatly astonished by the painful developments
of the last week. 1t appears that the firm of
Conner & Taylor, warehouse men, has failed for
large amount, and that their liabilities are
mainly on account of cotton sold for planters
without orders. The amount of the deficit has
not yet been ascertained, but has been variously
estimated at from 800 to 1000 bales-valued
at from $40,0 900 to 100000. In addition to the
above, it appears that Captain Conner is also
defaulter in the post Office to the amount of from
$4,000 to $4,000. Captain Conner had always
been one of the most popular and highly es-
teemed men in the city; and had resided here
for near quarter of q century. What has be-
come of so large an amount Of money remains
q mystery. 1t is rumored that it has all been
lost in cotton speculstions, in which others, in
distant cities, were concerned; that the other
parties have adroitly managed to slip out of the
moose, leaving the planters to pocket the loss
and the Macon partners the dishonor If this
be true, we hope the whole matter may be ex-
posed by q legal investigation. 1t is said that
Captain Conner has left for parts unknown.

are, at all events quite certain that this occur

Advices from the Cape of Good Hope to the
