Astonishing Condescension!

We have numerous touching little stories
circulated by his friends Of Gen. Pierce's
generosity. Governor Steele's "reminiscences
Of his reckless liberality TO the little boy who
was a perfect stranger to him; and the
equally we'll authenticated anecdote of hts
emptying his pockets one Sunday into the
poor-box, (of twenty-five cents, have been
narrated with "perfect gush of enthu-
siasm." In the recent Life of Pierce by
Hawthorne, we find another trait Of his char
acter exhibited-his marvellous condescen-
sion. Read the anecdote in the language of
Hawthorne, as we find it copied into the
great DEMocRAT1o organ Of the North, the
New York Euering Post.
"a little while ago, after his return from
Mexico, he darted across the street to ex-
change a hearty grippe of the hand with a
rough countryman upon his cart-a man
who used to live with his father as the
General explained the matter to his CON-
panions."
Goodness gracious!---gracious good
ness!'--as the man exclaims in the farce.
Only think of it! Only little while ago
even after his return from Mexico--HE-
General PIERcE.-bronzed with Mexican
suns and graced with Mexican laurels--
absolutely ddrted across the street to shake
hands with trough countryman;" and then
apologized to his companions for his fami-
larity with this rude acquaintance by er-
planting "that he used to live with his faith
er!" How wonderfully condescending in
so great man! Now, it is not worth while
to press your great romance writers into the
service of DEMocRATlc candidates.
The author AYERS that his typography" is
sanctioned by Gen. Pierce. We infer
therefore, that this anecdote was furnished
or at least authenticated, by the Genera
himself. 1t is published with flourish, a:
marvellous circumstance in his career, thai
he actually gave hearty grippe to one of the
of the old hands of his father-and this in
biography sanctioned by General Pierce.
A pretty set Of Democrats are these gen
tlemen, who are so nice in their "eXplana
TONS" when they perform an ordinary &C
of civility and courtesy to a man Of rougl
exterior! Let us have the picture--"Gen
Pierce explaining TO his companions how HI
happened to dart across the street to shak
hands with a rough countryman upon hi
CART"
This will do. Hawthorne has beatel
Governor Steele. The stick of candy, an,
General Pierce emptying his pockets int
the poor-box, sink into insignifcance. Gen
Pierce gripping the rough countryman, an
then rising to personal explanation" 0
the matter to his companions, is the last
richest, best joke Of all.

Northumberland FROM PERU.-
The Lobos Islands Fortified and Gdrrisoned
by Land and by &a-The New York Jour-
nal of Commerce has been put in possession
of the following interesting and important
intelligence from perfectly reliable and
authentic source:
immediately on receipt of dispatches at
at Lima, 3lst July, sent by the Peruvian
Minister at Washington, the Council of
State clothed the Executive with extraordi-
nary powers. One steamer and two ships
of-war were sent TO the Lobos Islands, and
three more to be sent Immediately after,
Gen. Destua was at the Island, with force
of three hundred men.
The English Steamer Lima, that left on
the 18th Of August, landed five hundred and
fifteen men, we'll differed, at Payta, on the
18th. They would leave the next day in
the steamer Bimac, for Lobos Island.
Orders have been given to station 1000
men at Lambayegue, (coast opposite Lobos
Islands.) The Lobos Islands would be
strongly fortified, everything being pre- pared
for so doing.

Webster Failure.

Our Democratic ncighbors have some
thing 10 say occasionally about the ''lying
telegraph" when very Whiggish dispatch
comes along the line. The other day very
Locofocoish report came along magnifying
a Webster State Convention in Boston to the
imposing array of 5000 persons present
and participating. Many Locofoco editors
gloried in the news, and have since written
whole columns TO convince themselves that
these monster demonstrations would prove
the ruin OF Scott in Massachusetts,, and in
Union. Well, we have received the Boston
Alias at last, whose editor was present at
this monster (telegrahic) meeting of 5000
Webster men. 1t lets the gas out of the
humbug, as follows:
"We were present in Faneuil Hall, yes
terday, during the session of the Webster
State Convention and will now proceed &c
give as favorable an accout Of it as truth will
admit of. To say that the day meeting was
failure, would not convey the real fact; il
was indeed terrible failure. The hall is
capable of holding five thousand persons
and at no time were there over four hun
bred in the hall, including active partici.
pants, boys, idlers, and lockers on. During
the reading of the address, two gentlemen
who sat near us, who are respectable as any
who were in the hall, made count--one
reported 25l, and the other 257."

THE GREAT Railway OF ILLINOIS,
The chief engineer of the Illinois Central
Railroad has made his report. The road,
with its branches, is to be nine hundred and
ninety-nine miles long. OF this, six hun
bred and twenty-seven miles will be straight
road; two hundred and thirty-eight miles
will be level; one hundred and thirteen miles
the ascent will be less than ten feet to the
mile; one hundred and eighteen miles, from
ten to twenty feet; and seventynine, from
twenty TO thirty; on one hundred and thirty
two, from thirty to forty, and on seven and
a half miles the ascent will be forty-two
feet to the mile. 1t extends from Chicago
and Galena TO Cairo, at the mouth of tie
Ohio. The amount of land which has been
appropriated by Government for the benefit
OF the road is 2,48l, l60 acres, which now
is an estimated value of $29,4OO,OOO.

But the most ludicrous part of this whole
business is, Gen. Clarlt's nffectation of the
critic. Some Of us well remember that in
1S40--the year that he spent the $6OO0!--
he wrote letter TO his friend and fellow
renegade, James II. Birch, who, by hook
or by crook, managed to let it get into the
columns of the Fayette Democrat. In this
same letter, if we mistake not, Senate was
spelt with G, or some such photographed
blunder as none but himself or the father Of
Frank Pierce would have Thought Of, was
committed. Well,
("Good Lord as some one sublimely sings,
What great events arise from little things,")
it was the mis-spellng of this little dissyl-
liable which caused that celebrated For
chase. in which some were unkind enough
to hint that the huntsman and not the For
had to take water, (though we are not Of
the number.) But now, mirabie dictu, the
General has become so fastidious in his crit
ical taste--so wonderfully skilled in philo-
logical niceties, that the great Jeffreys him
self could not pronounce more authoritative
" upon the merits or dement's Of a paragraph
than this quondom enemy of Noah Webster
and Linley Murray. --Gen. SCOTS letter Of
acceptance is any thing but what it ought tc
bet is tortuous, dark and sinister-while
Frank Pierce's is all that it should be; If
fact it beams with beauties which would
forever have remained recondite but for the
critical acumen of this modern Longinus.-
He rubs his hands in delight, as we may sup
pose did Mr.. Pickwiclk over "Bill Stumps
mark" or an Alderman over turecn o
turtle soup. Doctors tell us that change o
air sometimes produce wonderful improve
ments in those who are physically disor
dered but it has been reserved for Genera
John B. Clark. of Howard county, to prov
to the world beyond controversy, that chang
of party has an equally invigorating inhu
ence upon the intellectual valetudinarian.-
We congratulate him upon the grand dis
covery, and the happy effects resulting fror
it to him personally, and hope our Congress
ional representative, Mr.. Miller, will at
tend TO getting him a leather medel award
ed-the device being Jackass rampant o
both sides.

Weston and st. Louis Railroad.

We take it for granted that the rich and
popuous counties of Platte, Clay, Ray, Car
roll, Charlton, Howard, Boone, Galloway,
Montgomery, Warren, and st. Charles will
not be without railroad facilities any longer
than the counties on the lines of the two
other projected roads in the State. We
take it for granted that the ability exists TO
make the road from Weston to st. Charles if
it exists any where else in the State. We
take it as fact that freightS alone will not
pay a dividend on railroad stock: that it
takes passengers, likewise, to do this, and
that, wherever travel goes there is the place
for profitable railroad. The counties
through which this railroad would pass are
susceptible of a very dense population, and
already, has immense wealth and large
the last census in order to show the present
population; but it is, probably, as much as
100000. They are susceptible of contain
ing a million. We take it that the counties
along this road, by having it to pass through
the respective seats of Justice, would sub
scribe, in their corporate capacity, about the
following sums: Platte $250,000, Clay
100000, Ray 100000, Carroll $4,000
Charlton $l25,OOO, Howard $25O,O00
Boone 5000, 900, Galloway 5000 900, Mont
gomery $4,000, Warren 100000, and St
Charles 100000; in all 81, 775,000, and pri.
vate subscriptions would increase it to ST..
100000 The road would not exceed 30C
miles, and could be made at $4,000 pei
mile, thereby costing d. millions. The
other p millions, over the subscription
along the line, could be made up in St
Louis, and in the Eastern cities as readily
as any other project in the West. W.
doubt if there has ever been railroad made
anywhere where so much stock has been ia
ken along the road as would be taken on this
Besides the travel on this road, which woulC
be immense, we grow three fourths of al
the Hemp and tobacco raised in the State
In stock, too we are, at this time, ahead o
all other portions of the State. Let the eff
fort be made to build this road, and we ven
ture to say it will have better backing thai
any road in the State Liberty Tribune.

truth upon the Democratic party before,
they blow hot for the South and cold for
the North---are good tariff men in New
England, New York and Pennsylvania,
while in the South and West they are for
"free trade and sailors rights" In the
North they represent Pierce as thorough
faced Aboltionist and he is sustained as
such by the New York Evening Post and
the whole tribe of abolition sheets-by the
Van Burens-Preston King and Sumner, ct
id omne genus, while Pierce himself goes
about perpetrating cruises" to- gull abolition
sits into his support and sends John Van
Buren, on similar, mission only John is open
enough toilet every body see that he is an
Abolitionist himself and that he believes
Pierce to be SO too. So much for the con-
tcssed lie of the Manchester Democrat.

II "Whom God wishes to destroy he
first makes mad" and such appears to be the
design of Providence in reference to the
Pierce party in general, and our friend of
the Banner IN particular, for he is unques-
tionably rabid upon the subject of Pierce's
New Boston Speech. Just listen to what
he says in the following extract, which we
make from his last issue, and if he is not
mad we do not well know what constitutes
lunacy:

DIED.
In this city, on the 23d. inst, LOCKE, son of W
F. and Martha j. Dunnica, aged Is months.
From the St. Louis Advocate
ORITUARY

LOUISA A. CRAwLEY, daughter of Rev. VIM.
Perkins, was born the 18th day of June. 1926;
professed religion September, 1889; was married to
Mr. Crawley the 18th of September, 1915; and
died August 25th, 1852, aged p years.. months
and days.
Early in sister Crawley's illness, while she was
not without religious hope and comfort, yet she
felt unprepared and unwilling at that time to die,
she prayed necessarily for a bright manifestation
of her acceptance with God and for dying grace,
which, she believed from the first would soon be
needed. Her prayers in connection with those Of
her pious friends prevailed-the cloud was riyen-
the sun of righteousness arose upon her soul. A
few days before her DEATH administered the sacra-
ment TO her and to the members OF the church that
were present, and have scarcely ever witnessed
such scene as then transpired. The sight of the
emblems Of the body and the blood of the worlds
Redeemer filled her soul with heavenly rapture
She retained, until within few hours Of the last,
the unimpaired use of her mental faculties; she
gave appropriate counsel TO all Of her friends, and
eXhored every one 10 meet her in Heaven; few
minutes before she expired grown brother, who
had pledged himself to meet her in Heaven, and
who, feeling that he was unprepared to comply
with the promise, had been all of the day before
humbly seeking God, was happily converted. 1t
was an hour of holy triumph to every pious soul,
while the involuntary language of all present was,
''let me die the death of the righteous" She
caves afflicted parents and brothers and sisters;
disconsolate husband, (who is, thank God, humbly
seeking the hopes and sustaining influences Of re-
ligion) and two little children God bless them
and bring oil to Heaven at last,

PRospEcTs IN New ENGLAND, New
YoRK AND PfNNsYLvAN1A.--We have just
been permitted to read private letter from
most intelligent and sagacious Whig--a
man capable of forming an accurate and re-
liable judgment upon the subject, one not
liable to be deceived or led astray by his
fcelings--and one who writes after having
spent several months in travelling over New
England, New York and Pennsylvania
This gentleman writes: "We intend 10 car,
ry .Ne,U York and Pennsylvania as certain
as you line, four .NeaO England STATES Ger.
tian, and hard fighting for Maine" This
is the language of man who writes not fol
the public, but for the private eye Of conf.
dental friend.
So far as Pennsylvania is concerned, hav.
ing just returned from brief visit to tha
State, we may say that our impression
agrees with the writer. The Wings there
expect to give General Scott majority a:
large as they gave General Taylor in 1913

SELLING FARM.-A curious case was
docketed in the Circuit Court at Keytesville
the other day. A schoolmaster named Clark
had tract of land some 900 acres, in a
good neighborhood in this county, which he
was persuaded to sell for copy of "Mor-
cams Disclosures of Masonry, being fa-
matte or crazy on that subject, and believing
that it was the only copy extant Of that work.
He was induced to give his property for the
book. valung it at one hundred dollars, with
the intention of re-publishing and specula-
ting on it. When assured that he had been
deceived he brought suit to recover the land
which he had decided away, but before the
trial came on, withdrew the suit in the mo-
nomaical fancy that he could make fortune
out of the book Brunswicker.
