BelmOnt-Oemoc -

Mr.. Auguste Belmont informs that he is a
naturalized citizen here and denies that he ia
acting Charge d'Affares of Austria, though GER
tainly the Chevalier Hulsemann on abandoning the
chargeship, indicated Mr.. Belmont the person
who would act in that capacity pro tenn, and no
one has yet arrived to supersede him. That Mr..
Belmont is now, he has long been, the Consul
General OF Austria in this country, as also the
agent and pr0fege OF the great banking house OF
the Rothsch ilds, no one denies.
Mr.. Belmont would fain represent us as having
attacked him. We have done nothing Of the sort
We have intimated nothing to his prejudice, unless
we did 90 in stating the naked fact that he is n
leading supporter Of Pierce and King. We have
in no manner questioned his right to take prom
inent part in politics, though the decacy OF his
doing So while holding the relation he does to the
Austrian government, is point TO be considered.
But Mr.. Belmont, in playing the part he has vol
unteered to take in our politics, has no claim to
immunity from criticism We have right to let
those who are swindled by the terms Democrat
and {" Democracy know what sort of company
they keep, and who they who raise the money
and do the engineering for Pierce's election. We
have a right to let the radical Germans, who have
come to this country to escape the sway OF Austria
and the RothschiIds, know what Is that "Democra.
cy" which is to triumph if Pierce is elected. Mr..
felmonts voluntarily assumed attitude and activ
jty enable us TO do this; and il they aid us to up-
deceive even few of those whom sham Democracy
has hitherto mislcd, we shall not have written In

The GOLD DISCOVERIES IN CANADA.--The recent
discoveries of gold in Canada are making some
noise in the newspapers. We met yesterday IN
intelligent gentleman, recently from the mines,
who exhibited about two dollars worth of coarse
gold which he said was the result of the wnshin gs
from two pans of dirt Our informant is not en-
gagged in gold digging, but, had visited the mines
from Yankee curiosity. He states that quite a
large number of persons. in the employ of the pro-
prietor of the mines, successfully engaged in
surface washing. These mines are situated on the
river Dupont, near its junction with the Cbaudiere,
some forty six miles from Quebec, and near the
Kennebeo road. About five miles from this place,
at the Rapids Of the Chaudiere river there ia said
to be very rich vein OF gold bearing quartz.
Our informant states that sixty dollars worth of
gold was recently broken from the surface Of a
piece of rock in this vein weighing only thirty
eight pounds. He also states that some fifty or
sixty years ago a lump of pure gold, worth about
$780, was picked up in the vicinity of these dis.
coveries, and that two or three years ngo several
small Jumps were found, some of which we're ex-
hibited at the Worlds Fair in London. 1t has
been known for several months that there were
rich deposits of gold the banks of the Chnudierc
and its tributaries but negotiations for the sale of
the mining privileges there have delayed active
mining till within two or three weeks pact. .t

The MoDoSoeH EsrArE.-The disposition of
this affair by the courts OF Louisiana has, pre-
sumo, been determined by an impartial and I'M
BIASED judgment. We take this for granted, be-
cause the city OF New Orleans was equally inte.
rested in the fullment of the purpose of the tcs-
tator with the city of Baltimore. One could not
readily believe that the Louisiana courts would
cut off New Orleans from the provisions Of the be-
quest for the sole qualification Of cutting aius. We
assume, therefore, that the conditions Of the will
could not be carried out, because they were in
travention of constitutional law. This issue is
still pending and will constitute subject for legal
disqusition in the Supreme Court Of the United
States. Should this tribunal sustain those Of Lou
siann, shall have occasion to congratulate the
heirs upon very pretty little stroke of fortune,
and one which will be felt quite as agreeably in
this meridian, though not quite diffusively,
der one form of adjudication anotber--several
of the heirs being residents Of Maryland. Amongst
the number we Ienrn that Doctor A. A. Lynch, in
behalf Of his accomplished lady. is heir to one
fth Of the whole property. Others in this vicini-
ty are ALEC INCLUDED ip tho list of heirs; and the
probability is that Maryland will snare about
equally with Louisiana, il she does not even take
the larger half of the treasurc.-B Baltimore Sim.

Judge Douglas Rebuked by a Democrat


The part taken by Judge DOUGLAS in the
campaign has been repeatedly animadverted
upon as malignant and discreditable in the
extreme We have not seen more severe
notice of his oratorical style than the following,
written by the editor of the Oshkosh Owls. J
Democrat, PIERCE and KING paper, in refer
eir.re to the performance of the Senator at Mil
waukie:
"But I was ashameu,, disgusted and heart sick.
The speech was characterized by the lowest dem
agogical partisan scandal. ! ashamed, be-
cause from his position, ! expected something
manly from him. He aspired to the Presidential
nomination, and got nearly one hundred votes in
convention; for the honor of humanity and our
country, such a man, when he addresses the peo
pie upon elections, ought to address the reason,
the constituencies, and the ennobling princi
plies of our nation But instead Of this, the speech
full of the lowest party slang. Not a manly
sentiment was uttered. Not thought was given
adapted to make men wiser better; nothing to
lift up the aspirations of progress and social i'm
proyement. Not single attempt to reason-to
slow the fallacy of Wing principles, and the bcne-
fcence of Democratic principles. 1t was wholly a
personal TRADE agaiast Wings and the Whig par
ty. IL is true that the Wings obnoxious to the
greater share Of this but it should be left 10 the
common ioafers and gutter politicians-it is too
degrading for the soul to endure, when a United
States Senator, and prominent aspirant for the
chief office of the nation, eclipses them all in this

"Mr. CLAY ia dead, and MIR. WEBSTER ia dead;''
"but neither of them," we are told, "approved or
acquiesced in the nomination of General Scott"
We can hardly conceive any thing in worse taste
than this attempt to mngle the spirits of the great
departed with the active and bitter political strifes
of the hour. 1t ia true that these great and gifted
men dead, and, as they sleep in the rest Of the
grave, We desire to remember only what is plea.
SAINT and profitable to contemplate in their in
structive and brilliant lives; but the question has
been raised in regard to the final relations of two
such towards the nomination of General
Scott, it ia important that the truth should be spo
KEN In regard to Mr.. Clay. then, we have it from
| three more witnesses, and one of them his own
son, that he reconciled to the nomination Of
General Scott, and acquiesced in that nomination
without stint dread. We are not permitted to
know much, authoritativey, of Mr.. Webster,
and yet have the most creditabe assurances that
he, too before he died, Wing, acquesCed in
the binding force of General Scott's nomination.
We assured individually, and upon the au-
thory of the Commercial AdUertiser and Courier of
this city. We should not feel at liberty to com.
ment upon this subject but for the disposition we
see to nisrepresent the facts, and to turn the
death beds of Daniel Webster and Henry Clay to
political account. And when we know that those
who thus use these honored names were their
bitter calumniators through all their laborious
years Of publ service We confess that it requires
Christian patience and forbearance to listen to
these suddenly wrought eulogies over the dead, or
TO behold the artificial tears of old enemies, which
seem to have been prepared for the occasion. We
do not desire tt at old enmties shall remain on
earth, and much less do we wi that they should

THE REPU BLIC.
[FoR THE REPUBLIc.l
The sympathy OF Hypocrisy.

We presume there is not a sensible person in the
United States who can mistake the language Of
the Union over the death of that great man, DAN
lei WEBSTER, for the expression of genuine grief.
Ii there rs such in all the length and breadth
OF the land, We deeply pity his simplicity.
IL MIR. WEBSTER had been nominated for the
Presidency instead of WINFIELD SCoTT, the col
umns OF that journal would have been loaded with
the vlest calumnies against his character, and his
death would have been referred to as special
judgment of the Almi ghty gainst the Wing party.
Have the people forgotten the ISLANDERS OF Demo-
cratic leaders against DANIEL WEBSTER? How
many years is it since Charles Jared hgsysoH, Of
Philadelphia, n Democratic member Of Congress,
harged Mr.. WEBSTER, in the House of Represen-
tatives, with being embezzler and thief? Aha!
How long is it since Democrats in this city have
spoken OF DANIEL WEBSTER in terms most insult
ing to his memory Let the hypocrites pause and
review their ISLANDERS. Let them seek repenta nee
while mercy is still to be had. No crocodile tears
no manifestations of grief in PUBLICAN bring
peace TO their conscience.
AS they pursued HENRy CLAY through long
years, 60 have they pursued DANIEL WEBSTER.
No calumny has been too vile, no charge against
his character too atrocous and no hounds of party
too malignant or blood thirsty to accomplish the
one great purpose. Even the flowers upon the
graves OF the great and the good whom they have
slandered are blasted and withered by their pesti
lcntial tears. 'r- .g
We know that there are thousands of honest
| Democrats, in every part of our country, who will
drop an honorable tear for the memory OF the
GaEAT STATEsMAN OF THE NoRTH. In our re.
| marks we mean those only who trade upon their
| grief as does harlot with her beauty. The name
| and fame of DANiEL WEBSTER are dear to the
Wing party, and will be treasured long after his
! slanderers are effaced from the earth.

Another Distinguished Democratic Claim
Agent.

Another Distinguished Democratic Claim
Agent.
We have adverted more than once of late to
the notorious laxity that has pervaded the
management of important departments when
ever the reins of Government have been in
Democratic hands. In this connexion, we have
referred to the fact that Mr.. DALLAS, while
Vice President of the United States, prose-
cuted claim against the Government of which
he was a member, and received his proportion
from the Treasury on the day before he and
his friends vacated office.
We now present another example, not less
distinguished.
1t is we'll known that Colonel r. M. JOHNSON
while Vice President, acted as agent for claims
against the Government, and had the usual
interest Of an agent in their settlement. In
one instance he received SIS 900 out of a claim
of $37 700 and odd dollars, which, in conse-
quence of his exertions, was passed by the &C
counting officers after having been previously
rejected again and again. The claimant was
Captain SIMEON BUcKNER, and the facts will
be found in a report of the House Committee
on Public Expenditures, prepared In 1912.
The agency and the result are all we have
space to notice, but the details will repay Pc
rusal by those of our readers who have access
to the documen, in question.
1t is the custom of the Union to make very
valiant challenges, and to shrink from them
like a coward SO soon as they are accepted.
1t was recently anxious to ego to the country"
for verdict on the purity Of Office holders
under Democratic administrations; and, while
that profession lasted, no paper could be more
eloquently valorous. We took up the glove,
and turned to Mr.. DALLAs's practice as a
starting point. The Union has been silent
upon the subject ever since--muttering SEN
tence now and then about "Gardnerism," Blu,
never mastering nerve enough to finish the
controversy begun by itself. 1t sacrifices Mr..
DALLAS, a martyr to its empty oravado, and. II II
were practicable, would consign Colonel JOHN
SON 10 a similar fate. If Mr.. DALLAS and 9TH

office-holding claim agents, feel aggreved by the

tions to which they We're attached, they mus
