lie said that $4,000 had been appropriated
for this Hospital, $4,000 of which have been
expended in the purchase of site, leaving a
balance OF $4,000 to complete Hospital,
which would cost at least SAC, 1000. MIR. L..
said things would have to remain N their
present condition till Congress sat again, as
this $4,000 would not build the Hospital
We differ with him in this. The bill or bills
giving these sums were similar, we believe,
to bills generally for similar objects. The
first bill gave $4,000. The commissioner
or superintendent was appointed, and bat for
the difficulty in reference to the site, the work
would have been commenced on this sum
anticipating, as usual, further appropriations
from Congress. The next session, Mr. l..
himselfw was instrumental in obtaining further
assistance to the amount sef $4,000. No
one certainly expected the whole sum would
purchase land, and build Hospital like that
at Louisyille and Paducah, which cost $40
600 alone.
The site here is now purchased and paid
for, and we see no reason in the world why

River and IIarbor Matters.

The Democratic speakers, those of them
Mt least in favor of River and Harbor I'm.
provements, are continually saying that
Democratic Administrations have passed al
the River ard Harbor Bills ever passed, Of
late years. In Jackson's time, every Con-
gress was Democratic, yet no bill of this ma
ture was passed without the aid of the great
majority of Wings. So it has been with
every River and Harbor Bill passed since
The Democrats have passed no bill by the
votes of the party alone, as given, but the
Wing minorities generally have given a
much larger vote proportionally than the
Democratic majorities. After the election
of Harrison and his death, River and Har-
Dor Bill was passed and vetoed by that good
Locofoco, John Tyler, so there was no use in
Congress passing any more bills of that
kind during his term. Since the election OF
Tay lor, his death, and Fillmore's succession,
the Wings have been unable to get River
sund Harbor Bah passed, until this last ses-
sion. We have published the party votes
on this bill, by which it is seen that the
Wings gave a much larger vote for it than
the Democrats. 1t has always been favor
lite policy with the Wings everywhere. The
Democrats, however, have been etcrnally
quarreling over the question, and will be
quarrelling till-eternity.

~ Friend Lockhart spoke in the high
est terms of the late River and Harbor Bill
and even thought the Democracy deserved
great credit for getting additional items add
ed to the bill. The editor of the Times,
however, has been bitterly opposing that same
bill. There is delightful contrast between
the views of these gentlemen on this impor-
tant subject. Mr.. Lockhart has been incon-
sstent, but he is right now. We are willing
to pass over these inconsistencies of the
past, in view of his present repentant state.
AS for the Times man, he occupies undoubt-
eddy the position of Gen. Pierce. He is
"tooth and toe nail" against the bill, and il
he were President, or if Gen. Pierce were
President, the bill would undoubtedly be
rctoed. Now we don't believe that either Mr..
Baymiller or Mr.. Pierce will live to be Pres
idcnt, therefore we have strong hopes that
hereafter, in this particular, the West will
receive its dues.

Gen. Pierce and Gen Jackson.

Our Congressman said in his late speech,
that Gen. Pierce stood on precisely Gen.
Jackson's platform, in relation to River and,
Harbor improvements! We will not be-
leve Mr.. Lockhart so ignorant as to sup
posehe thought for moment this statement
correct. We have twice published Pierce's
votes in Congress against River and Harbor
bills, which Gen. Jackson approved, and by
his approval made laws These votes show
that Gen. Pierce occupied precisely IAN an
tasonistical position to Gen. Jackson, on
these river and harbor bills, and those bills
proved Gen. Jackson's platform. Do Demo-
Gratis suppose that Gen. Jackson would have
approved bills he thought were not right and
constitutional! What Democrat dare make
such an assertion! He then believed these
bills right and constitutional, and therefore
the principle or platform contained in them,
right and constitutional Gen. Pierce OPP
posed the bills, and therefore opposed Gen.
Jackson, so far as they were concerned.
When any other Democratic speaker
/ chooses 10 place 1'ieTCe Uiiu SdChSou ou INC
same platform in this matter SO important to
the West,we hope he will give the documents.
We have given them, 'and will take great
pleasure in turning over the Congressional
reports with any doubling Democrat, and
showing him Pierce's votes recorded against
several excellent River and Harbor bills, SO
good as to receive the approval of General
Jackson.
Not only that, we will show him Pierce's
votes recorded against appropriations for ex-
tending the Cumberland Road into Indiana
and also against donating land to an Ind ana
Railroad, which offered to carry the mails free
for twenty ears,and only asked lands required
for its erection, such as have been repeatedly
granted roads since. How any Western man
who should do his own thinking and his own
voting, can give his vote to this bitter foe of
Western Interestingly only be accounted for
by that strict party drilling which binds down
a man to the condition Of serf.
