AN OLD COPPER MINE Of extraordinary richness
has recently been discovered on what is called the
Hill Vein, in the Lake Superior country Certain
circumstances, recently brought to light by it's dis.
covery, indicate that it was worked long before the
discovery Of America by Columbus. The richness
Of the mine may be imagined from the fact that
Mr.. Mendlebaum, the manager, in causing it to
be explored, had mass of copper which weighed
1880 pounds removed from the surface of the vein
There is certainly much mystery connected with
these ancient traces of mining operations discov
cred from time to time in the upper region Of Lake

"For the sake OF our British Friends"

"FOr the sake OF our British Friends."
We desire to see the free trade Dennocr rats in
power for the sake of the universal commerce of
North America; for if Pierce shall be President,
our northern friends ,oiH haze the benefit Of it,;
therefore pray for the Democracy for The sake Of
our British friends Canada International.
Thus the British press, in Canada as in England,
are for Pierce. They spray for Democracy for the
sake Of our British f,iends." British prayers and
British gold will both be literally expended to pro.
mote British interests. General Pierce, because OF
the principles which he advocates, is the candidate
of the moneyed aristocracy Of Great Britain. The
same paper which thus "prays" for General Pierce
"for the sake of is British friends" calls General
Scott ian old foo.' The British Tories can never
forgive General Scott for having whipped the red
coats at Lundy's Lane, Chippewa, Fort George,
&C. They would be exceedingly chagrined at his
election, while they have dozen reasons for de-
string the success of General Pierce, whom the
London Times eulogizes as "the practical ally OF
British interests. "-Albany IN. ~ Journal

A NOVEL MIsTAxE.-Quite an amusing scene

John Van Buren,.
From the Baltimore American,

From the Baltimore american.
Mr.. John Van Buren, is reported by the Boston
Commonwealth to have expressed himself as fol-
lows in q recent speech at Faneuil Hall:
GAS he had before had occasion TO say, he wished
the country to know that he supported Pierce and
King and gave in his adhesion to their principles.
Yet while he said 30, he wished ii distinctly under
stood that he had always been, and was now, OPP
posed to that relation described rs human slavery
He had dl,oa been, and sods no,D, an earnest adpo
cate Of the National Governments aboshing slavery
wherever ii had the po,oer."
In lS4S Mr.. Van Buren, announced it as his pur.
pose to labor to make tho Democratic party of New
York the Anti-Slavery party Of New York, and
the Democratic party of the Union the Anti Slavery
party of the Union. 1t may be seen by the pas.
pase quoted above that he continues to labor for
that end, and that he supports Pierce and King
and their principles for the better promotion of his
purpose.
How far the party which IL is thus proposed to
ganize and to identify with the Democracy would
regard the constitutional rights of the South when
once arraycd in sectional hostility against them,
we may in some eort infer from the aggressive
spirit manifested in utter defiance of national law
against territories outside of the Union yet contgu-
GUS to it. Let fierce Democracy be organised at
the North under the Of sectional fanat-
csm, and let it be told by it's leaders that the obi
cations they under 'o enlarge the of free
the South should be assailed with a view to their
utter prostraton by the power of the General Cow
ernment-how long 10 it likely would Mr.. Van Bu-
rem hesitate to the sphere Of that power under
his Interpretation Of the constitution, aud the gene
| raj welfare clause in particular? We commend
those genemen of the South who aft ct to be hor-
riied because Mr.. Seward intends to vote for Gene
raj Scott, to attentive consideration of Mr.. Van
Buren's position by the side of Mr. Pierce.
