Lindley and Caruthers.

The "Banner" and the Northeast Re.
porter" have been amusing themselves
with quoting an extract of speech Of Sam.
Caruthers, the Wing candidate for Congress
in the Seventh District, and trying TO show
want of harmony between his sentiments
and those of Lindley on the subject OF
the Jackson Resolutions. They succeed
rather badly, however, but well enough they
think 10 help jackson little. Here is an
extract said to be from Caruthers' speech
which pleases them much-su much that
they have italicised the leading points:
"Sam then boldly undertook the defence of
The Legislature Of Missouri in passing the
Jackson Resolutions. He did moi approve of
all the Resolutions, but denied, for the hon
or of the State, that the Democratic Legis-
lature were traitors TO their country, or that
they were all fools or knaves, as asserted by
Benton and the General both. He was no
Democrat in the Locoroco sense of that
word, but he believed that many of the De-
nocrats (and there was but une Wing
among them who voted for the Resolutions, J
were as uiytuous and honest as Jackson or
Benton.
"sam boldly undertook the defence of
the Legislature" for what? Not because
the Legislature passed the resolutions, but
"ror the honor of the State" He was I'M
willing to let Benton's declaration go un-
contradicted, that majority of the members
of the Legislature of his native State, were
traitors, fools and knaves. HE believed
that many Of the democrats who voted for the
resolutions were as uirtuous and honest as
Benton or Jackson" Now, if the demo-
crazy are pleased with that compliment, in
Heavens name let them enjoy il! 1t is
about the keenest piece Of irony we have
seen, and coming from Wing, cuts both
ways, as any body but blinded locofocc
editor could see. We should think moth
ing would make an Anti fight quicker
longer, or harder, than to tell him he was q,
UirtuouS and honest as Benton.

Atchison a Provisoist.

Senator Atchison delivered speech in
the United States Senate, in August, l94S,
on the subject of establishing a territorial
government for Oregon, in which he said:
Il believe was the first to introduce a
bill into this body establishing territorial
government in Oregon, and in that bill / in
corporaied the ordinance of 1887, and for
years heard no objection 10 it on that score
There were other objections TO the bill, but
none on account OF its containing the ordi-
NANCE
This ordinance was from the pen of Mr..
Jefferson, and was passed by Congress, and
made applicable to the Northwest Terri
tory, out of which the States of Ohio, In
diana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin,
have since been formed. 1t was passed on
the 18th day Of July, 1877, by unanimous
vote, and not only prohibited slavery from
going into the territory, but under its pro-
visions, those who had slaves in the terri
tory had to move them out. Senator Arcu-
IsoS introduced it into the Oregon bill, and
it prohibited shareholders from going there,
and forced those who had slaves there
(some of whom had emigrated from this
county, TO move them out. Now, Senator
Atchison, and the Anti-Benton press of The
State, are denouncing Wings as Freesoiler:
who admit the power Of Congress to enac
the ordinance of 1877, although they be
lieve it inexpedient FOR Congress to exercis,
that power. Maj. c. F. Jackson, the An
ti-Bentou candidate for Congress, however
is little more careful in his expressions
Speaking Of Freesolers
Mr.. Jackson said he did not intend t
denouace any man as Freesoiler becalis
he entertained the opinion that Congress had
right 10 legisidte on the subject Of slavery 4
Territories, jm it was the principle that
was the duty of Congress 10 do so, ,chic
characterized The Freesoiler."
That ought TO stop the mouth of those VIII
accuse Mr.. Lindlcy of Freesoiism, and W
commend ii 10 the men of the "Bloomingto
journal" and Northeast Reporter"
But where shall we place Atchison? II
denies the power, and yet frames bill 70
the Government Of Oregon, in which h
inserts the Proviso, and voted for it. Wi
the Reporter" the journal" the "Ban
ner," or any body tell us where to plac
Atchison? We pause Tor reply.

DEAR SIN: wish TO be enlightened up
on certain points connected with Major c.
F. Jackson's political history, and as you
seem to be posting yourself up in his biog-
raphy at this particular juncture, pardon me
for applying 10 you as the one best qualified
TO furnish the desired information.
have been told that just before the as
sembling Of the convention in Columbia,
which nominated Mr.. Jas. S. Green, as the
the candidate of his party in the last con-
gressional canvass in this district, Major
jackson addressed him letter TO the effect
that his nomination was so certain,an effort
on his part to make it more so, would be
unnecessary and supererogatory. That his
presence at said convention, unless entirely
convenient, could be dispensed with, as he
(Jackson) and the rest of Green's friends
had made all the preliminary arrangements 10
insure his success before that body. In
short, that he need not have the smallest APP
prehension of the issue, as there would be
no opposition to him from any quarter. l
have been informed furthermore, that after G.
had been quetcd by this epistolary lullaby,
Jackson set about cover,ly, but most indus
triously, 10 drum up TO the above mentioned
convention, a sufficient number Of his own
friends 10 get himself nominated instead of
Mr.. Green; ard that he would most proba-
by have succeeded in his foxy stratagem
had not gentleman of Howard county, ia
vorable TO Green's nomination, discovered
the trap and given him timely warning of
Jackson's intention TO catchhim mapping.
BE SO kind as to let me know whether the
truth of Major Jackson's history is belied by
the information Ihave received. If it has
been, then it becomes Major Jackson to
make it apparent that such is the CASE
! There is q principle Of law, 1t is true, that
every man shall be held to be innocent until
proven guilty; but he will not be permitted
10 avail himself of this lenent provision
because such conduct is too much in keep
ing with the FoX's well known penchant
for finesse, and comedies rather remarkably
with another charge of treachery laid tc
his door by his quondam friend and bene-
factor-Benton--to be put 10 rest by mere
denial. And if the report be true, it is still
more important that it should be generally
known-there are few men, however de.
PRAYED, or lightly bound by the shackle'
of party, who would be found ready to es.
pouse the cause of another convicted o.
such unprincipled trickery, especially wher
practised against one so great favorite witt
his party as James S. Green.
Very respectfully,
QUERIST.

Third Congressional District.

The Free Soil organ of Mr.. Benton in this
city has an article in reply TO question put
by us, which is not without its significance.
Benton is not here, but we have no doubt
that it speaks by the card, and therefore it
is entitled 10 consideration.
The Democrat says that the leading Anti
Benton politicians, "who are quite sangune
of the election OF Mr.. Jackson, are ever
sanguine in their judgments, and their feel
Ings have outrun their sober conclusions
That paper continues:
mo Democrat, in our opinion, can vote
for Claib. Jackson for Congress, and en-
pect 10 be respected or recognized as a con-
sistent or true party-man or republican, a
lover Of his country or its institutions, or
having pride in the reputation and clarac-
ter Of its public men.
Certainly tc9 will be astonished to learn
that any Democrat in the Third District can
be found assisting in the election of the arch
traitor and nullifer, Jackson, 10 Congress,
ard would prefer Lindley hundred times
10 be elected as the representative OF tie dis
trict than Claiborne +. Jackson.
But there is no occasion for us to express
any such sentiment, for the reason that there
will be Democratic candidate in the field
who will receive the democratic vote, minus
the few bogus Democrats, Nulifers, Rot,
tens and Softs who will vote for jackson:
and ifthe true Democracy of the district do,
as we have no doubt they will, support a
good and reliable Democrat, Claib. will stand
no more chance in the canvass than does a
short tailed bull in fly time"
Now Mr.. Freesoil Democrat, will you
please TO trot ont that Benton candidate as
soon as possible? We want TO see him-tc
pat him on the back" if need be-and
are Just as anxious to beat Fox Jackson as
you can be--albet, for different reason
we want to put in a good, sound, reliable
Wing, in the person of James j. Lindley,
and if you can only keep your men from
going over to Jackson, of which we have
our fears, we shall do it.-TRepublican.

Glasgow Female Seminary

The Annual Examination Of the pupils
Of this Institution closed on Thursday, TO
the entire satisfaction of the friends Of the
School, and with much credit TO the Teachers
and Pupils. The closing exercises took
place Thursday evening, in the Methodist
Church, in the presence of large concourse
of ladies and gentlemen. Col. S. A. You've
of Columbia, delivered an Address on the
subject of Female Education, and the In
fluence Of Woman, which was listened to
with profound attention. The subject was
ably treated, and the Address should be
printed and circulated. We understand an
official report on the subject of the eXami-
nation will be published, and forbear further
comment.

Howard High School.

We had not the pleasure of attending the
recent examination of this School. "a
spectator" furnishes the following to the
St. Louis News:
The number of students during the last
term was 33S-showing constant increase
of some twenty students annually. In their
examination the classes demonstrated the
thoroughness OF their induction into the
principles OF science, iii a manner calculated
TO silence the opposers Of the present i'm
proved mode of instruction. Glasses in Eng
lsh grammar, algebra arithmetic, plain and
spherical trigonometry, Latin and Greek,
were brought forward with results so uni
formly gratifying, that 1t was impossible TO
award the need of praise to any particular
teacher or student. We would, however, do
violence 10 the lovers Of sweet music, were
we not 10 mention Mr.. and Mrs. Dauber,
the accomplished teachers OF this depart
ment, Of their fair pupils, who convinced us
that there was nothing wonderful in the re-
suits produced by Orpheus with his harp:
he only made trees dance, while these caused
the iron hearts Of men TO leap la mode de
Herculean quickstep.
An Grafton was delivered by Rev. Joseph
Boyle, D. D., which was literary treat well
worth Il trip from Saint Louis. DR.. Boyle
is none OF your stand-still philosophers,
who, fearing to advocate an opinion, lest it
should be in advance OF the age, spend their
time in lamentations over the departed glory
of by gone days. He is none of these; but,
launched upon the sea of philosophy, with
reason for his chart and lightning for his
motive-p power, he lets drive the noble men
tai ship, fearless of the shoals and quick
sands upon which the timorous are sure 10
strand. His summing up OF the literature
Of the nineteenth century would have done
credit to Ha,lam. All who heard him felt
proud that they lived in the present age,
among the wonderful productions OF which
there are few greater than the Doctor him
self.

Il am sorry to say that some of our good de-
mocratic citizens, although they paid good
attention TO the first address, being pricked

to stand sound doctrine. A large majority
OF that party, however, heard Mr.. LINDLEY

Europeans toward the shores of America.
On the 25th utimo, a column of 200 Ger

the morning of the 18th ult., 556 emigrnnts
who had arrived that same morning by The
Straasburgh railroads, took their departure
for the HARE line. The evening train to
Havre on the Oath ult., carried from Paris
9S5 Hanoverians, who were about TO found
town in the State of Illinois. In Hunga-
ny more than 1000 passports had already
been given; a number Of them for Callor-
MIA. The authorities make no difficulties
about granting passports, but the emigrant
is obliged 10 declare that he does not intend
to return to Austria.

JACKSON STILL Hor.-A friend writing
to us on business, from Bloomington, says :
Il am credbly Informed that Lndley is whip
ping Jackson badly above this; he has him
mad and rantiug, at almost all the appoint
ments. You will see for yourself soon, in
your city,
The last Bloomington Journal says:
At Kirksville Clab. took strong ground in
favor Of land appropriations, after contend
ing strongly in this place that it was I'M
constitutional. His tools can soon reconcile
this by saying he is firm on the Baltimore
and Jefferson city platform; that's enough,
go it boys. Il is said that Claib. boiled over
in his speech in Kirksvile, and overrun
his time, and put questions to Lindley in
public after the speaking was over Now
what does this argue? 1t argues that Claib
is hoisted; he has the old man head on the
boz shoulders to contend with, Gas many of
the Republican orators are pleased to call
him the youngster.) BY this time Claib. has
found ont that he has more than his snatch"
in the shape Of this ''litte third rate Law

oversight or negligence on our part. Dur
