That the last Legislature 'riPPled the expense

Remember thai the members raised their own

Remember that they raised The salaries o.
our State and Judicial officers about fifty per

Remember that they passed tax law which
is unequal. unjust, sud absurd.
Remember that their object is to tax banks

Remember that in their bungling legislation,
many Of ,he laws had 10 be amended The same

Remember that they promised US one session

The recent accidents TO steamboats,, and con.
sequent loss Of life has led 10 an examination
of the comparative risks of steamboat and rail.
road travel, which has resulted most in favor of
tho latter. The Railroad Journal thinks that
unless steamboat travelling can be rendered
safer, only the inferior grades Of travel will bo
leIl to the boat, and il will become entirely sec.
ondary TO The more safe and rapid method OF
transit by railroad.

A Relic.

On our labIe, this morning, we found an old
number Of the Ohio Picayune, dated May 23d,
1851. How il came there VIZ know not; but
lhere il was in all iIs (en inches in) length, &
(eiRhl inches in) breadth. Curiosity induced
us 10 look over It's contents, and in The leading
editorial artcIe we found the following state.
menl;
"The demOgogues also increase the Supreme
Judges salaries under the new constitution five
hundred dollars each, and common pleas judges
Two hundred each Why do they give that in
crease D. -dccepliou, is the answer Now il
ihe people will elect a maisTIy of democrats TO
the FIRST legislature under the new constitution,
we will guAranIee no increase of Judges sala.
TIes."
The object Of tho author seems to have been
to induce The people TO vote for the adoption of
the new constitution. lie INDUCES in long IT,
rade Of abuse Of The Wings, on account ol1heir
opposition 10 the new constitution, aud sums up
wiIh the foregoing porolaIon.
Il is true that the Wings opposed the adoption
OF the new constitution because il was thought
shat salaries would be higher, and The expenses
.of the government increased under il; and il is
equally true that the locolocos denied that such
would be the case, insisting that salaries would
be lower. To assertion who are the dema.
gogues, and who lied, in the premises, you need
but 10 refer 10 The above extract and compare it
with tho salary bill Of lasi winter. We ac.
knowledge tha. the Wings were mistaken in
iheir eslimaIe-lhey didn't guess enough
The salaries Of the supreme judges were increa.
sed THREE HUNDRED, and those Of the
common pleas judges, FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS ! per annum. Not only this but
1here are one supreme, aud eight common pleas
Judges moro than there were under The old con.
sIilution.
Il is clear and urquesIionabe that they lied
about this matter; but such state Of eflairs is
not 10 be wondered al, when we remember iha
a disposition 10 lie is the natural procvIy o
locofGcos. They arc al the Same game now, &
will follow j, up, indusIriously, until the eIec
lion is over. Beware Of them; they lied abou
sheir new constitution, and will just as readily
lie-abou, Gen. Scott. Believe nothing until
you see the documents.

An act was passed at the las. session of Con.
gress providing for The making and distribution
of letter envelopes, bearing postage stamps,
which are to be supplied to the public at The cost
of procuring them, as near as may be. The
advantage Of this is obvious, and the public have
long demanded it. All pos,maslers are to be
furnished with them for sale, and as "o.her per-

AWFUL TRAGEDY. We seldom have heard a
tragedy so truly revolIiog TO human nature, as
Que which occurred last Friday night, at
Brownslown, Indiana The details given be-.

Hiram and Warren Francisco, and well known
as respectable and peaceablo citizens, followed
the occupation of clock peddIing. They usual

informed him that he hSd 70 candles about the

and having some matches about him, he struck
a light. Upon examining tho bed, he found
that it was wet with blood. Discovering a can.

made by three men to enter his room. Pre-.
