LIBERTY, EQUALITY, PROGRESSION.
The Apportionm,ent.

There were two features in the New Con-
stitution which the whig papers OF this State
settled down upon, generally, as he ones
which they could attack most effectively
One Of these was the apportionment. This
feature was assaulted by every whig paper
in the State, from an eight-by ten weekly up
to mammoih daily. II was denounced as
swindle. cheat, an imposition and ,obig
disraachisihg system. Notwithstanding
these bitter denunciations, the icstum, nj
was adopted. Nop, it would seem, from q
calculation which the Dayton Gazette makes,
the Wings can carry The House for the ne xt
ten years. According 10 the Gazette, the
chances for each party are es follows. viz !:
IN 1852 the House will be As Wing, IA
sDt macrai and 6 doubtful in 1854, as Whigs
Az Democrat, and doubtful in 1856 ~
Wing 81 Democrat, and 7doubttul; in 1858,
so Wing, 40 Democrats, and doubtful in
1860; so Wing, 49 Democrat, and 8 doubt
fal.
So much for the sincerity which the Wbig
partizans displayed before the adoption Of
the new Constitution and the honesty OF the
strongest objection which was made against

attemptit they may expect no quarters from
him, u ne tells the truth. When we arrived in
Cleveland, ana got clear OF bis disagreeable
presence, all the company doubtnot, were as
heartily glad oft as was. The other who claim.
ed'a large share Of fattention, should have been
mentioned first, as he was the one who first,
Drought himself into notice. He was a tall bold
looking customer, rather Of the ferdant speci-
men, who Immediately after getting into the
cars, seated himself about The middle Of them
and pulled from bis pocket q, manuscript, and
commented singing, much to the amusement Of
all,
"Pll bet mymoney on the bobltailed nag.'
After singing the piece over several times, he
was about putting up the manuscript, when this
gentleman and then sometimes a lady would
have him requested to sing aeain--aftil I posi-
lively believe he sung it ~ OF 10 times, and the
way he would shut his eyes, lay back bis head
and pat his feet, was caution to all Negro
Menageries

did and succeeded, and the "almighty dol.
lar" had such an effect upon me as upon
some have known. ii would destroy all the
hopes Of happiness ever had. So I'll wish
Tor none Of it. As to politics, the thing is
all on one side. The old Cuyahoga Chief
will be elected by Is or 10000 majority
and if the thing is hereafter managed right
and some Of the selfsconstituted leaders of
the party, don't attempt to make their opin-
ions the standard test of true democracy and
the platform upon which sll must stand, or
be accommodated from the patty, we al.
ways viii carry the State. The gfeat major.
ily of the people Of Ohio are democratic,
if the leaders will only let them vote with
the party, and retain their own private views
upon matters Of expediency. But to &C.
complish this, mere differences of opinion
upon such points must be allowed. =

Lopez.


The question is Where's LopfzP Has he
struck for liberty or struck for the woods ?
Has he. struck bis. foes or struck his flag
Is be walking into the Spaniards or are they
making him "walk Spanish q" Has he cut
his enemies or" cut dirt 2"
The New York papers. and also dispatches
from New Orleans, of date the 22tl, most
positively stated that Gen. Lopez was cap
tured and bis forces entirely cut TO pieces
The New York Herald is just as positive,
by dispatch from Savannah, that he landed
and the people were rushing in large num-
bers to his standard, and he was carry ing all
before him.
As Lopez cannot very well BE-. cut and
carved up and made fsll-bait of by the
Spaniards, and at the same time triumphant
in battle, probably the best way 10 know the
facts will be to wait short time.

Yankee silsbee in london.

The commedian Silsbee has written let
ter to the Detroit Advertiser Of the sights be
saw in London during one week. After Wis.
iting the Exhibition, where be says be found
"a medley of statuary and satins, fabrics and
feathers, pearls and petticoats, machinery
and mobs, silSerand sandwiches, all mixed
up like pickles in jar" He visited the
great tower, and was conducted through its
apartments by guide who showed him eve
rything with great deal Of gusto. AT last
they came to the great cannon and ordinance
captured from various nations. The rest we
quote from Yankee:
This. .piece,' said our little guide, with all
the pomp of little Englishman, who never
feels SO happy as when boasting Of their VIC
tories, 'this piece is from Waterloo. Lord;
how we did beat them there This is from
Badajos-this is from so and so'-and heran
over the cannon, dilating on the history of
each with evident satisfaction in every mus
cleof his codntenance.

the exploits of his nation. so thought /
would bring him to anchor little, as the
sailors say. ALI at once ! looked carefully
about me, turned my head every which way.
and then hooked inquiringly at the guide.
What are you looking for, sir, may in
quire p at length said he; we've got trophies
from all nations and he pointed to number
of interesting specimens, with their mouths
gaping open like hungry bulldogs.
Have you indeed ? said l, carelessly,s1
wasn't looking for French trophies, nor Span
ish.'
Perhaps its Che ghineseY interrupted
he. %s y n
No, nor the Chinese saidI, but I see you
have got so much stuff laying about here;
where's all that was captured from the Amer
leans, eh?'
'AhT grunted he, looking amazingly
blank, the Americans--yes, the Americans

'Yes,' replied /, still looking, 4 don't see

such old stuff that we didn't care about bring
ing il homer
Just then sudden thought struck him; his
eyes rolled up, a little blood flew TO his
cheeks, and he evidently smoked He took
the queue and backed down. When the com.
pany were going out, he leaned over and
whispered in my ear that Twas yankee. !,

In Tennessee the contest was very ANNA
ted, and full vote was polled BY the
wings, giving them a gain Of over 5000,
compared with the present contest. The
result is wbig Governor, and both branches
Of the Legislature whig. The wings worked,
the wings voted and the wings triumphed.-
Trib. d Clip.
Is the Tribune and .Clipperaware that the
Democrats elected seven out of eleven Con-
gressmen, in Tennessee? Is chat gaining such
a wonderful whigvictory? Why didn't you
enlighten your readers on that part of the
subject? AS for the Governor, any one who
knows anything about Tennessee politics,
understands the reason why Gov. Trousdale
was defeated, and will not lay it to tohig
uotes. 1t lisa settled fact that the people Of
the United States will not hear to any prop
osition for dissolsing the Union. Gov.
Trousdale was Southern States Rights man,
and although not SO ultra as some OF. the
South Carolinians, still enough SO to cause
him, with all his personal popularity. to lose
the Executive Chair. His defeat, we hope
may have the effect 10 deter others from advo-
eating secession measures, or promulgating
principles, which ifcarried out, would un-
doubtedly sever the cords that binds our glo-
rious States into one common motherhood
Campbell, Trousdale's opponent, advocated
mild measures and sustained the compro-

sentenced Mrs. Keogh, Of that place, to
three months in the House of Correction, as

"The very air had waited the evolutions Of

such an adept at the business, that her facili.
ties for scolding were beyond comparison.

Santa Fe, found Pawnee Iniian dead and
scalped on the plains, and beside him noble
dog, the wolves all around him. They caught
him and undertook to take him with them,
but he refused to walk and was in great dis
