ILLINOIS. Higher LaW Democracy
Some two months since the people Of Iii.
nois adopted, by a direct vote, the new
Banking Law submitted to them by their
Legislature. giving it their approval by
eight or ten thousand majority. The
lack Of facilities for obtaining business
capital at fair rates, had become serious.
Iy oppressive throughout the State, and
hence il was determined to set aside a
Partizan dogma, long held by them in
principle and in practice. in hope Of
fscllii0ting the general prosperity uf the
State. The abstract principle, having
proved impraclicable, was abandoned ,
Notwithstanding the protestations and
prophetic denuncations of few leaders
OF the dominant party, who had long used
it as hobby to carry them into power.
The law having been adopted against
their wishes, these Democrats set them
selves to work to defeat the popular will.
In accordance with this programme oi

THE TEHUANTEPEC RAILROAD.

Our readers are already aware that the Te.

ed by both Houses of the Mexican Congress.
That this decision is one of the most Ubiquitous
on record, is beyond ell question.
In 1842, charter for connecting the two
oceans was granted 10 Garay, citizen of
Mexico. Garay sold il to Manning and McIn-
tosh, an English house, and they sold it to
Mr.. Hargous, at that time living in Mexico,
though citizen of New York. He has since
associated with him certain gentlemen of capi-
tai in New Orleans. The original charter re-
CURED that the road should be commenced
within certain time. Before the expiration
OF the allotted period, the company applied for
an extension Of time. II was allowed BY an
almost unanimous vote of both Houses, and
only wanted the signature of Santa Anna,
which il would have received had he not been
suddenly overthrown by the revolution Of
lS45. II subsequently, did receive the signa.
ture of one Of the Presidents, but another rev.
olution having oyerthrown him and pronounced
him traitor, the Congress has seized upon
this fact, to justify il in annuliing the treaty.
The United States are bound, in good faith

have no doubt that such 10 the opinion Of tks
Cabinet, and that ii will take its measures &C,

price of a cane, asked if he purchased it whether
ne could receive the change of gold piece of mo
ney. The clerk who waited On him wanted 10
know where the money came from, when James
said ne found it. This statement led to further en-
quiries, when the lad attempted to run off He was
caught by Mr. W., who had a severe struggle with
the boy, and upon bringing him into the store, he
stated that he had only been joking shout the
money, and that there was no such gold piece upon
his person. He was searched and nothing but so
cents in change and some powder percussion cans
and balls was found upon him. The clerk then re
paired to the place where he mad had the struggle
with the boy-this was about dark-and there found
