GEN. CAss.-From among the many volunta-
ny tributes 10 the great services of Gen. Cass
which our democratic exchanges contain, we clip
the following from the Kenosha (Wis.) Demo-
crat. We may add that next to Thomas Jeffer-
son and Andrew Jackson, no man has ever lived
who has firmer hold upon the affections Of the
democracy Of this country than Gen. Cass:
"Amid the many happy omens that attend
President Pierce at his entrance upon his official
duties nothing is so auspicious ms the fact that
his administration is to be supported by and re-
ceive the hearty cooperation Of Lewis Cass, Of
Michigan The highest ambitions Of Gen. Cass
are gratfed, for democratic prnciples--on ac-
count of which he has fought so long and man.
fully-are once again victorious. His defeat
four years ago--effected though it was BY un-
happy divisions and dssensions in the ranks of
his own party-has caused no change in his feel
ings toward that party. He is the same whole.
soued, warm-hearted democrat that he ever was.
With the energy and zeal Of his younger days,
he personally entered the late canvass, and con-
trbuted not little to bring about its glorious
result. For this he will receive the confidence
of the administration, and the Nestor Of the
Senate he will, in that body render it an eff
Gent and warm support
"To the west has Gen. Cass proved himself
especially acceptable. A residence here of more
than half century, has completely identified
him with western interests. Here is his home
Old age is slowly creeping upon him. But three
score years and ten have touched him lightly,
and his form is still erect and vigorous the fire
of his intellect uncouded, the light of his eye
undimmed One by one have his more immedi-
ate cOmpeers in the councils of the nation pass
ed away, and he now stands in the Senate almost
isolated, as it were, but still the noblest Ro-
man Of them ALL All honor to the old man,
who has spent long life in the faithful service
of his country The orator, the dpomaist and
the statesman, may yet remain many long years
to guide by his experience, and instruct by his
counsels."

SPIRIT RAPPINGs IN GRAND HAvEN-The
knocking on the counters of several of the
shops in this place. will call forth spirits that
will sparkle and seem to say, rap and indulge
in these spirits freely, and you will find what
thousands of departed spirits have found before,

MAcoMB COUNTY BANK, MIcHIGAN.-The Su-
preme Court of Michigan has confirmed the de-
cision of the Court Of Chancery, in the case of
the Attorney General vs.. the Macomb County
Bank. The decision is, that the Bank is pos
sessed of all the privileges and franchises grant
ed in the charter, and in the amendatory acts
thereto.
While this case was pending it became our
duty to omit the usual quotations, but now we
restore it, and buy its notes at one per cent, dis
count. Thompson's Bank Note Reporter.

INCREASE OF INsANITY-The Superintendent
of the lunalic asylum at Utica, New York, says
that insanity is fearfully on the increase in this
State. We learn that from Monday the 2lst
of Feb, to Friday the 25lh, Give days) seven
teen new patients were admitted into this ins,i-
tuion-the greatest number ever before admit.
ted in so brief space of time. There is no
doubt but this increase is owing, in great meas
ure to the unhealthy state of excitement caused
by the spiritual" humbugs of the day. This
mental disturbance reaches people Of all classes;
fortunate beings in whom the nervous predom-
mates over and tyrannically rules the tempera-
ments, and renders them susceptible to the Pc
culiar and fascinating influences Of such marvel
Ions demonstrations as, it is alleged are produc-
ed by "spritual MEDIUMS" and people more
highly charged with electro magnetism than
common sense. Albany Register.

CINCINNATI DOLLAR WEEKLY TlMEs.-This
old established weekly paper, since its enlarge.
ment, appears to meet with more favor than ev-
err at the hands of the business men of the West
and South, who are subscribing to it by humid
reds. 1t is now, without doubt, the handsom-
est, cheapest and best weekly paper published
in the West, and the price is so low that it is in
the reach of all, leaving no one an excuse for
being without paper for the home circle. One
of its prominent features-and one that rem
ders it highly acceptable to farmers and business
men, is its commercial department, which each
week contains complete and correct review of
the Cincinnati markets. and the prices current,
besides an ably written money article, in which
are noticed, the financial movements in the lead
ing cities Of the Union.
We notice that in this weeks paper is CON-
menced deeply interesting story written ex-
pressly for it, by one of our favorite western
authors, entitled Speculation, or the Merchants
of Rag Rotten" From hasty glance at it,
we feel confident that it will be particularly ac-
ccptabc to the mercantile community, for its
mastery expose of the " tricks of the trade"
and the many ways in which the unsuspectug
merchant is liable to be feeced by the sharper.
Besides, its editor is engaged in q bold defence
of the common school system from the Jesu-
teal attacks Of the Catholic Clergy, which he
coneeives to be- preconcerted and carefully ar
ranged warfare, to be carried even to the ballot
box. AS an American citizen, who has the well
fare of his country at heart, we say he ought to
be sustained against their efforts to put down
his paper.

New YORK CRYSTAL PALAcE.-Itis announ-
ced in the New York papers that the Crystal
Palace, on Reservoir Square, will not be ready
for the reception of articles before the first of
June. In the mean time, tall, unsubstantial
buildings are going up all around the neighbor-
hood, for stores and lodging houses, for which
enormous rents are demanded, and some of
which it is altogether possible may tumble down
and cover their inmates.

THE LIMAs AFFAIR.-We learn from the N.
Y. Tribune that an arrival at Boston brings fur
Their accounts, which correct, to some extent,
the previous reports of the doings Of the British
steamer Devastation in Honduras. Some dis
lance east of Truxillo, the river Roman empties
into the Gulf of Mexico this river, it is contend.
ed by the English, is the northern or rather the
northwestern boundary of the Mosquito Ter
rtory, and on this ground they have long main
tanned logwood-cutting establishments, on the
eastern or Mosquito side Of that river In pro-
cess of time, however, they have crossed to the
Honduras side, and have taken possession Of
the little place on the coast called Limas, which
they have made the depot of gangs of logwood
cutters, whose operations have been carried on
upon ground to which the title of Honduras has
not hitherto been disputed. The authorities of
that State, though willing enough to let them
out the logwood, insisted OF their paying the
usual fee for the privilege of so doing, and on
their refusal about four months since, proceed
ed to dispossess them by force. The Devasta-
tion has now reinstated them on the novel pre-
tense that Lmas is within the Mosquito Terri
tory, and that Honduras has no right to any rev.
enue from its logwood, nor any other right con.
nected with the spot. This is not quite so bad
as the statement before received according to
which the boundaries of that mysterious terrific
ny had been extended over Truxillo ITSELF but
In point of principle it amounts TO the same

THE LATTER DAY SAINTS. Yesterday there
arrived, via New Orleans, about $50 persons,
Mormons, on their way to Salt Lake, chiefly
from England. We learn from Mr.. Wheelock,
late Presiding Elder of the Church in this city,
and just returned from England, that there are
six more ships on the way, chiefly freighted
with members of the Church and their families
He estimates the number expected by these
ships at from $500 to 5000. lie is advised of
the arrival of n ship at the Balize, with about
800 persons from Denmark Arrangements are
making for the transportation from Europe,
next year, of about 10000 The growth of
this body is one of the most singular novelties
