The editor Of the Princeton Clarion, or
one of his friends, has at last ventured on
the task of writing an editorial against Whig-
gerry and in support of Gen. Pierce. He is
very happy to know that the President has
preserved the Union, and by a very remark
able line of policy. though exceedingly beau
tiful in its simplicity. 1t was by merely
bringing "together the different factions OF
the party which supported him to power"
and how did he do this, BY appointing to
Office notorious freesoilers and secessionists,
according to the Clarion. The Clarion
thinks that any other course than this would
shave endangered the Union" Indeed! IL
is very probable that the appointment oil as
unionists and abolitionists to high office was
indispensable for the existence Of the Deno'
cratic party, but we scarcely can bring our
selves to believe the appointment OF men
who had advocated the dissolution OF the
Union, and of other men whose theories and
acts tended strongly in their legitimate ef-
fects, to the same object, was a very proper
means of preserving the Union. 1t was the
old fashioned way to punish traitors, not to
reward their treason-to condemn men whose
opinions were dangerous to our internal peace
and to the existence of any established law
generally approved-not to elevate them
above the heads of their honester neighbors.
But in our progress" we have come upon
times, when bonus is offered for treason,
and when men the most despised are most
promptly elevated.
The Clarion is delighted with the Presi-
dents course in making his appointments.-
1t says:
hWould he not have endangered the very
existence of the Union had he pursued a diff
ferent line of conduct and prescribed such
men! We think he would, and we look up
on the course he has pursued ss one fraught
with wisdom and to which the Union is indebt-
ed for it's preservation and the firm basis up
on which the Compromise now rests"
Well, what do those old fashioned Demo-
Gratis who have been laboring in the Demo-
cratic vineyard from their youth, think of
such appointments! What do they think
when asking for Office a. a reward for half a
-iifA-simA,s lahors- they are pushed asido to
make room for Disunionists or Freesoilers-
all to preserve the Union! 1t is to be pre-
sImed they would rather their Locofoco Pre-
sident would adopt some other plan to pre-
serve the Union, than by sacrificing them and
rewarding such very peculiar merit at the
same time. The Clarion may court up GER
tain Freesoiers by such remarks, but we
don't think the old Democrats of Gibson
will say "Amen" to any such opinions.

can pass by the tomb OF man with some.
what of calm Indifference, but when sur
vey the grave Of female, sigh involun-
tarily escapes me. With the holy name OF
woman, / associate every soft, tender and
delicate affection. | think of her as the
young and bashful virgin, with eyes spark
ling and cheeks crmsoned with each impas-
stoned feeling of the heart; as the chaste and
virtuous matron, tried with the follies of the
world, and preparing for the grave to which
she must descend. Oh! there is something
in contemplating the character of woman.
that raises the soul far above the level of So
ciety. She is formed to adorn and humanize
mankind, to soo;he his cares and strew his
path with flowers. In the hour of distress, she
is the rock on which he leans for support, and
when fate calls him from existence, her tears
bedew his grave. Can you look upon her
tomb without emotion! Man has always JUS
tice done to his memory; woman never. The
pages of history lie open to the one; but
the meek and unobtrustive excellencies of
the other sleep with her unnoticed in the
grave. In her may have shone the genius of
poet with virtues of a saint. She, too, may
have passed along the sterile path Of existence
and felt for others as | now feel for her.

GREAT PERrL-REMARKABLE EscAPE.-

GREAT PERIL-REMARKABLE ESCAPE
Early this morning Mr.. Amory Amsden
thought he would take walk, and struck off
in the direction of Goodman street, to the
railroad crossing. Just as he got there, a
woman, with small child upon the seat with
her, drove up, and as the buggy crossed the
first rail of the track, both the shafts became
detached from the vehicle, leaving it, with
woman and child standing on the track. At
this point of time, the lightning train was not
more than sixty rods from the vehicle-nev-
ertheless, MIR. Amsden graPPled it, and threw
1t from the track, just in time to clear the
train. A moment later, and the destruction
OF the parties would have been inevitebIe.
