A BALr1MoREAN AMONG THE Mock AUcT1oNEERs.-
The New York Tribune tells an amusing story OF a
Mr. King OF Baltimore. in that city, who fell in
to the hands of the Peter Funks, from whom he pur-
chased brass watch for forty dollars. On leaving
the establishment he greatly surprised TO find
that he had been didded. and said he thought the
mock auctions had been suppressed There was an
evident recognition and some huuering in the camp,
when Baltimore re appeared before Peter Funk and
demanded his money, with most decided Southern We
hemence and determination of purpose to send part
" pimps and all to the tombs Perceiving that he
had lie 'rned his rights, and that knowing he dared
maintain them by process whose certainty of sue
they had tested too often to do so foolish thing
as to risk i, again they forked over with as good
grace as they could command.

"This morning one Of Mr.. Whites men reported to have
seen a bear about two miles south of Warteuton-immc
iiately a party assembled, and with 4 number of staunch
dogs, went in pursuit. The dogs soon overhaulcd him,
but before the huntsman got up with the dogs, a terrible
fight had commenced; Mr.. Tancirs dog Rapid, had fallen
a victim to his courage, the fight continued, and several
dogs, less known To fame than poor Rapid, shared the same
fate. Mr.. Edward Saunders discharged three balls into the
bear, which he did not seem to feel. Mr.. McCaity, in try.
ing to rescue his dog Pilot, missed fire, and being rather
close, the bear turned suddenly on him. But for timely
assistance Mr.. McCarty would have made a sad picture =
Mr.. Brooke being close at hand dispatched the animal.

Organism

This line Of business is in danger OF being overdone.
Mr.. fuckers prospectus is followed by the announce
ment that two other Democratic organs are to be es,
tablished in Washington. One by the Looofooo
members from New York and the Northwest, to be
edited by Mr.. Bacon-ando one by Mr.. DeBow to rep
resent the anti Compromise wing Of the party in the
~South-while hints arc thrown out about others
and Messrs. Toombs and Stephens Of Georgia ae
booked for a contemporaries journal.
1t will be somewhat difficult for each and all to lay
down the law and eNpound the true principles OF De-
mocracy without clashing. We may expect those
principles, already multfo, m andindistinct, to become
still farther confused and more than ever variegated,
under the hands Of so many artists. We look for
lively times, when all shall get under weigh and il
the Brigader should become as unintelligible as .
myth, it may reasonably be imputed to the multi
plicity of his organs. 1t is possible, that the impress
sion which is spreading throughout the country, that
he has no opinions of his own, has contributed in no
small degree to this multitude of OF gans all eager to
manufacture opinions for him. Its a kind and hui
name proceeding on their part, and we hope they may
be well rewarded for their DISTINGUISHED interccsSion.
Mr.. fuckers paper will be the first Of the new
batch, that will enter upon the stage and at the
very outset he will have TO grapple with n per-
picking question the Pacific Railroad. Will he be
Tor II or against II Z lie IL Young America, to be
sure-but then he is the straightest of the sect of
Observation-Disclosures 1t will have n very odd ap-
Pearance for a new paper established for the sole
purpose Of u~pholding genuine Democratic principles,
to be compelled at the very start to take ground
against the principles OF the Democratic President
and his Democratic Cabinet ! How will friend Bev.
get out of the difficulty? He cannot worship God
and Mammon. lie must renounce one or the other.
Any dilly-dallying, h~eSitating and compromising
spirit will swamp his youthful enterprise. He mus,
be either for or against a scheme which goes to the
root of the Constitution, and which would augment
the patronage Of the Government beyond all precc-
dent 1t will not do for him to follow the old style
of the Virginia Democracy, in the days of the Pro
clamation: protest with all his might against the prin.
cipleS of the officer and profess unbounded submis-
sion to and admiration of the man. That is a
stale, WORKOUT e~xpedient, unworthy of the energy
AID genius of a fast young man of the modern era.
Some other must be dcvised-and we merely suggest
these difficulties that Mr.. T. may prepare himself to
meet and surmount them. He has TO face a crisis
he cannot dodge it-and it is the first step that will
make or mar him.
