FEELrxe.-The Democracy appear to
be thoroughly aroused to action by the nom.
nations by the Baltimore Convention and
are everywhere receiving the intelligence
with spirit which shows that they will

The truth is, we have never known such

ArtesIan Wells,

The Dallas Gazette, calling attention to COM
munication in that paper upon this subject, has
the following notice of Mr. Matthew's well, which
has attracted great attention:
1.-THE boring of Mr. Matthew's first we'll is
completed It is 1856 feet Deep and throws out
200 gallons per minute. We do not know of
another well in the world that discharges so much
water. 1t is a curiosity and is worth along ride
to have view Of it. The water boils up, roar
ing like q cataract, forming branch of consid-
cradle size; and the low grounds, some two hun
dred yards distant, require ditching to carry off
the immense quantity Of wator collected upon its
surface.
"Mr. Reid the successful borer of this well,
has commenced boring another some sixty yards
distant, flor Mr. Matthews,) which will be some
1900 or 1000 feet deep. TO prevent injury to
the first it is necessary to make the second one
much deeper, 80 as to reach different stream Of
water The first well is tubed, as the second will
be.
"NIr. Reid is also boring well for DR.. English,
two hundred yards distant from Mr.. Matthew's.
1t is now 536 feet deep, and discharges 200 gall
Ions Of water per minute"

The usual order of things is reversed by our
friends of the other party, and the kangaroo is
an animal readily suggested by the ticket they
present, may be perceived by the following
description from the North American:
1.-THE FINALIrY.-General Pierce is forty-six
or forty-seven years old, and has been in Con-
gress and in Alexico-the former for seven or
eight years, without however, making any great
figure there-the latter for about three months,
during most of which time he was sick, but
doubtless very good and brave officer, although
he chiefly distinguished himself by falling off his
horse the day before the battle of Contreras, and
fainting from pain and exhaustion in the midst
Of the action next day. Mr. King is nearly
seventy years old, and has been in public life
upwards of forty, having held several high diplo-
matte appointments-as at st. Petersburg and in
France; and served long in Congress-fve years
in the House, and thirty in the Senate. Age, ex-
perience, and merit are all on his side: yet We
find him placed in the subordinate position, as if
inferior in claims and qualifications to the New
Hampshire Brgadier This is another illustra-
ton of the working of the mischievous and I'M
natural principle of the Locofoco Convention of
seeking ayailabeness in obscurity, and lifting
second-rate men over the heads of frst-rate, in
the distribution of party and national honors.
Why should man grow old in the public service?
why should he serve the public at all, since he
obtains no claim thereby to the favor of his coun-
trymen over those, the lesser and happier spirits,
who stay at home at ease,' vcnturing nothing
and winning all through force Of mere luck and
insignifcance ~
Daily American telegraph., 1852-06-09

We are highly gratifed at the indications Of
theapproaching millennium evidenced int the views
and sentiments of some of our Democratic friends.
The time was when they could tolerate no oppo-
nent-when, from the highest to the lowest, every
Wing officer whom party influence could reach,
whether appointed or elected, was ostracised
without mercy, and his place supplied by one OF
the faithful in the Democratic ranks.
But now it is delightfully."- refreshing to hear
the mild and tolerant Union discourse of such
things 1t at once brings to our vision the soft
green pasture, the purling brook, the overarching
and outrageous oak, and the affectionate vicinage
of the lion and the lamb in repose "Mr Maury
lis a firm and consistent Democrat" the Union
says "but the election was conducted prospect
i've of party politics. Indeed, many OF Mr.
Maury's strongest friends are known to be
staunch Wings; but, coinciding with him IN
the opinion that the city elections should be con-
Quoted irrespective Of the great purity lines which
divide the country, and upon the good old JEFF
fersonian principle of, Is he honest? is he fit!
&C., Mr.. Maury, upon the joint invitation OF
Wings and Democrats, consented that his name
should be brought forward upon those grounds"
We have only to remark here, that during and
before the election many of those who election
eered for Mr.. Maury constantly declared that he
was SO little of politician that they scarcely
knew on which side he stood After The election
however, as we felt assured would be the case,
the Union proclaims him "yfrm md consistent
Democrat!"
h, But the concession of the fact that he received
e.!any Wing votes of course removes all grounds
of Democratic Boosting; though it would, per-
haps, have been prettier i'll the Union to tell the
whole truth, and state that it was nearly a cool
thou sand

Religion and Politics Again.

The Republic alludes to an allegation that the
course of Gen. Pierce in the late New Hampshire
convention is open to exception on the ground of
his manifesting religious intolerance, and states
that it is utterly unfounded.
A Baltimore correspondent of the same paper
says that the Hon. George NJ. Dallas, in speech
made before the Democracy of Philadelphia on
Monday night, travels out of his course to make
the charge that the Wings of New Hampshire, by
coalition with the Freesoilers, defeated the
amendment to the constitution giving to the Ro-
man Catholics equal political rights, and pro-
uounces the assertion unqualifedly false-assert-
ing that the figures Of the late election in that
State will demonstrate that the largest maorities
for the amendment were cast in the Wing towns,
and the largest majorities against it were poled
in the Democratic strongholds.
New Hampshire is decidedly Democratic, and
decidedly opposed to religious liberation. The
Wings must take it in hand. 1t is too bad that
any State in the American Union should at this
day prescribe men for their religious opinions.
Let the issue now be there renewed, and let the
voice of the Wings of the whole Union be heard
by the people of New Hampshire in behalf of re-
ligious liberation and equality Of rights and
privileges
Daily American telegraph., 1852-06-09

The idea that the Presidency is reward due
for eminent or brilliant services in the council or
in the tield-though it has at times obtained ex-
tensively, and often served either wholly or in
part to elevate distinguished statesmen and SOL
diers to that exalted stations an erroneous and
\ dangerous one.-Gn
This discovery has very recently been made by
the Unon-not until it had contrasted it's nomi-
nees with the probable nominees of the Wing
party.
A little while ago. the Union thought that only
military services should be thrown out of the
scale, intending of course to make q loud boast
of the civil services of Mr.. Buchanan or General
Cass. But now it thinks 'servces in the coun-
Gil or the field are alike dangerous merits in a
candidate for the Presidency.
The Democratic party has ever heretofore con-
tended that they were, and acted upon the as
sumption; while the Wings have only claimed
them as evidences of worth and fitness, but dis
claimed the bestowment of the highest Office in
the Union as the reward of such services.
Our Democratic friends appear to have changed
their views. The Wings have not, and will show
in the approaching election that their confidence
is firm in the patriot the soldier, and sage, whose
forty odd years of honorable and glorious service
have proved alike his ardent devotion to the well
fare of his country and his eminent capability of
serving the republic in the most exalted position
to which his countrymen can elevate him.
Daily American telegraph., 1852-06-09

E1- A Western Democrat remarked in this
city to-day that Gen. Pierce would find more
difficulty in travelling through the West next
fall than has ever been experienced by any other
man. "He will encounter" said he, "nothing
but snags, shoals, narrows, and sawyers in our
rivers, and nothing but miry roads and deep
ravines on land. We claim the West, the North
west, the Southwest, and all the West-in short,
the Great west-to be in the United States, and
therefore entitled to the care and paterna regard
of the government; and the man who is opposed
to our most vital interests can never receive our
supportn

Important Temperance Movement.

The Grand Division Sons of Temperance of
Louisiana have memorialized the authorities Of
New Orleans to allow the voters of that city to
decide, by vote, at the coming convention election,
whether or not licenses for the retail of spirit
uous liquors shall be granted there. The
petitioners take the ground that, under the
recent act of the Louisiana legislature, allowing
a majority Of every parish to determine whether
ardent spirits shall be vended or excluded from
their limits, all persons engaged in the traffic
in violation Of the law, or, at least, without
legal right They contend that the effect of the
law was to take away the power of granting
licenses from bodies heretofore possessing it.,
and vesting it in the majority of the voters of
the parish or district The question raised is an
important and novel one, and we shall look with
some interest for the decision arrived at
