DIVISION OF CALRoRsu.-The last political 10
counts from California ola very important cha
racter in reference to the division Of that STATE into
two, and thereby increasing the number Of States
in the Union. This project has made very rapid
progress since its first conception.
The nst develapement Of this rev ids took place
.ome msnths ago in San Francisco, We have 10
dosbt that every Additional arrival from Caifornis
will bring us some fresh intelligence that the State
will be divided eventually. The division of the
Stale of California would create but little sensation
were it confined to the matter Of geog rsphical
division alone Southern California, its climate, it
productions its position, and other contingencies,
would seem to be favorable for the introduction o.
slavery rs understood in our Southern States.
This project will soon cause trouble in the forth
coming session of Congress; it will awaken afresh
the slumbeng opposition of the free soil party Of
the North, and may affect, to great extent, the
present position of parties In the country.

POSITION OF. JUDGE WADE.

&a
The Hon. B. F. Wade, the new Wing Senator from
Ohio, has addressed letter to citizen of New-Lis-
bon, defining his position, and the he intends
to pursue. The following extract from this letter we
find in the 6 Palladium - of that place:
"First, then, am a Wing, always Wing, and
nothing elsa Wing, because believe the best In
terests of country are connected with the success
of that party always too much devoted TO the party
to see it lend itself the furtheance CT measures
which ] cannot approve without an endeayor 20 pre-
vent its so doing. 1t shall be my endeavor truly to
represent this great State, and not any particular
ton of it. shall the best of my ability, rebuke
any attempted encroachment of Slavery into territory
now free, or any naughty and insolent attempt 10
overcome the Free States by threats of dissolution
of the Union any measures intended to insult
Northern feeling. You know that am hostile TO
the compromise measures so called, and especially
the fugitive law ; but shall endeavor to deal fairly
with the South. | do not intend to be an apitator
but while Slavery will consent to remain within her
States, without attempted aggression, shall feel
disposition to interfere with her in that intend
to be true Wing. l regret to see disposition in
any part of this State to eRgraft the compromise
measures upon the doctrines of the Wing party the
attempt to make these measures test of Whiggery
would be to destroy the party, the Reserve least
Whereas, if the Wings of the South and middle
portions of the State could be made little more toll
upon this subject, should be able to act to-
gether next fall as of old"
What does the Hillsborough Recorder say to that :!
Is Judge Wade still, in the estimation of that paper
a conservative and .' natonal'' Wing! Does the
Recorder march in the ranks with This man Is
he not infamous Abolitonist as Seward or Sum

"QUIET" FOR A TIME.

We make the following extract from letter in the
Washington Republic, dated Boston, April "a
"'The most dangerous among US, who, by the
eternal repetition of their madness and folly, have
gotten to believe the whole of it, quiet here just
al this moment; but they will doubtless break forth
again. Their minds have lost heirte by strain
ing upon one idea. | heard, the other day, that a
friend of Wendell Phillips told him the best lawyers,
connecting his incendary talk with consequent overt
acts, believed he had committed treason, and was Ii
able to be hanged. The very thing | want he ex-
claimed In great excitement"
We can perceive no great difference between Wen
dell Phillips and the State of Massachusetts. The
people of that State, through their Legislature, have
made it penal offence in any of their officers aid
In capturing an escaped slave, and have denied the
use OF their prisons to secure the slave after he is
Ken; and on the back of this they have just elected
Sumner to the Senate. We told our readers, in our
last, who Sumner is He occupies the same platform
with Garrison and Wendell Phillips; and we fear
they have the State of Massachusetts, for their
panY.

Wecopy the following from the last Hornets Nest,
,;,bout. of course, endorsing or disappearing any
,hinr it contains. We are anxious however, that all
dos should be heard reservng to ourselves the right
-. xnross our own views, from time to time, in our
own way The Nest says: a- /t4
u1t is now thought that the CASTOR Road will go
down, and believed by the lnveshgaung' oy men who
IHoI before they think, and think well before they
luz that the Central Road depends so much upon
cs,on Road that the failure of the latter is but
the index of the formers failure. we arrive at the
onr conclusion from the comparison which follows.
Tbe Central Road is to be about 22O miles long,
~ paIaigb 16O miles, which distance answers all
10y nurnoses of our remarks. The Wilmington Road
;s .hont the same say l60. Suppose the road TO be
finished from Charlotte TO Raleigh ana In operation
The CASTOR road suppose still to De In operation
The Central road has cost 80 'OUU.oOu: lake me IN
enc in throuch travel upon the Wilmington road and
sunnose il will amount 10 the same on the Central
rosd 1893 700 81. The way travel per cent. more
Than on the Wilmington road, 500 sol 80. Mails,
-nts etc the same $50, 954 81 Freghs S7l ,O7l 26.
The whole making $4I1 PA "a, very pretty income,
hat we NAV safely set the freight down at $4,000
more. making the snug sum of $426,244 81. Take
from this amount the interest payable on the money
the road cost 900, and there remain 1921 pa 3D.
Deduct 70. ordinary and extraordinary expenses the
Wilmington last year expenditures, less about No.
OO0 and we have balance of $95,224 81, very
like per cent.
Let US look at another phase of the subject We
lose in consequence of the failure of the Castor road
the through travel and great mail, amounting, with
deduction from the Wilmington estimate, to $780,
900 swapping previously estimated profits and
putting the road the Stale In debt about $l5OOOO
annually.
From this view of the matter, somewhat hastily
gone over it is true, but in which large margin has
been allowed for the of the road IN connec
a. 81. aoAa ocfu ofof alor
without the connection, it will be seen that greatly
does the Central road depend upon the Raleigh and
CASTOR one that the failure of the latter will drive
all prudent from any participation in the former
ruinous project.
Lose, say we, the through travel and the Great
Mail from the Central road, and it would just pay
enough for it to meet such fate, snakes heads
and rotten timbers show upon the Castor road"
The newspaper press must have latitude eLbOuV
room" upon all questions of this character. Dis
cussion ELECTS TRUTH and truth and sound conclusions
are just the results at which are all aiming.

A GOOD THING.

We find the following good thing in a late number
of the New York Herald:
All other movements indicate nervous and
trembling condition of the system. They seem fear
full that they will put their hands so far from them
that they cannot pull them in without burning their
fingers; but the Scott movement is so determined
that they mean to put him into the White House anv
how, or in any shape-either President, Emperor
Sultan, or Gar 1t would indeed be drol thing
if General Scott should be President after all his
hasty plates of soup. In l84O supported him for
two years, and might have had him nominated il it
had not been-not tor his hasty soup, but-for his
hasty tongue and pen. We do not see how the de-
mocrats Can make any strong Roadway against him,
unless they BRING military man into the field. They
have General Houston, General Pillow General Bnt-
Ter, General Lane, General Quitman, (by the way
one of the best of them) and. may add General
Tom Thumb, who are generals. But who among
them will be able to compete with the glory and
inches of General Scott The most even contest
we believe, would be between General Scott and
General Houston. In intellect and inches thew are
nearly of size. General Houston, however, has
the advantage General Scott one military point
He commenced the Mexican war and caught General
Santa Anna, who, at that time, had two legs. Gen
eral Scott finished the Mexican war; but could not
catch General Santa Anna, though that time he had
but one Leg General Houston, then, in pure militia
ry glory, is one leg in advance of Scott he caught
legs, while. with one leg only, he got away from
General Scott and his army of 10000 men,
The above point, about the legs, would be CAPT.
tai Wing argument in a Presidential campaign.
This hit of the Herald will cause many a hearty
laugh. We copy it for its fun, without endorsing
any of its statements conclusions.

proposition of the American government relative to

Itwas generally believed the day the Chiffon sailed

the American brig Leander and the Imprisonment of
her captain. In consequence of this, the Haytiens
were daily in expectation of the arrival of the Ameri

DEN OF RoBBERs. The New Albany, La. Ledger,
gives an account of den OF robbers on an island in
Beaver Lake, Jasper county in that State discovered
by Mr.. Weiss, who went after four stolen horses.
In order to save his lite, he swore not to divulge
what he ; but he exposed the whole when he got
home. The Ledger says:
8" He was taken 10 large cave on this island, pro-
vided with supper, and then shown all the impe-
ments such Williams generally use for carrying out
their designs. such false keys. bank note presses,
metal for making bogus money. &c. The next morn
ing he was paid his price for his horses. and
for his trouble in coming after them. and he and his
horse taken to the shore according to agreement.
Mr.. Weiss says there were over one hundred men in
the gang-many of whom he knew-they had been
residents of this and adjoining counties, and that they
had occupied high stations among the citizens. He
states that there about twenty-five women in
the gang-the wives of some of the rascals. They
had one hundred and thirty horses the island, and
they had just sent twentythree out west in different
directions. 1t is to be hoped that the new society
gotten up in Jasper and the surrounding counties will
put an end to all such villainous companies"
