Morning, May %, 1854.
Mr.. Burleigh's Lectures.

C. G. Burleigh spoke an Thursday and
Friday evenings last, to fair though not
large audiences, in this city, at the Con
gregational Church.
Mr.. Burleigh is laborer of many years
standing in the anti-slavery cause, and
hss national, or at least northern re-
putation as one of the ablest and most
eloquent men among the many able and
eloquent men who are engaged in that
work.
The lectures delivered here were aimed
mainly at the Nebraska measure now be-
fore Congress, and so far as the audience
who listened to him are concerned, we
cannot think a single one failed to per-
ceive and understand the monstrous in.
herent iniquity of that measure and the
still more monstrous and iniquitous re-
suits to which it is tending.
The true Orator is dependant upon at
tendant circumstances for the inspiration
of eloquence, and no doubt there have
been many occasions when these were
more favorable to arouse that slumber-
ing power, which Burleigh gave unmista-
kable evidence of possessing in a high de.
gree; but his logic his argument, his rea,
son in the premises could not be sur
passed, or more effectively presented t.
the mind of the listener.
We are thankful that Mr.. Burleigh ha:
been with us. 1t gives an additional i'm
petus to the spread of that correct senti
ment in the popular mind which will rem
der nugatory all the corrupting efforts o
demagocues in high places.

THE DEMOCRAT,

Our neighbor, the KenoSha Democrat
appeared again, on Friday evening last
after a suspension of one week, in an en-
larged form, and under new auspices. Mr.
Paul retires from the paper, and Mr.. John
NJ. Coe, formerly Of this place, but re-
Gently of Milwaukee, assumes the charge
of it. The ''Good By" of Mr.. Paul is
frank and pleasant, and the Salutatory Of
Mr.. Coc is studied, elaborate, and evince>
the enthusiasm of the inexperienced. Oul
new brothers style is quite ford.
Altogether the paper presents a neat
appearance, and is quite readably got

BUSINESS NOTICE.

Metcalf. Merrill, & Co. are receiving
their New Goods, as see their announce
ment in our paper, They have been veX-
ed beyond all patience, at the unwarrant-
able delay of their goods, in the hands Of
transporting companies; and they tell us
(privately) that they are going to make
up for loss Of time by selling cheap and
therefore quick. Mind, we do not vouch
for them, though we always find things
to our liking; but might it not be well
enough to them try?-D.

Charles Durkee,

With others Of our citizens we have
had the pleasure of taking by the hand
our late fellow citizen Chas Durkee, who
is on short business visit to his old res
idence. This reminds us to say what we
have had for some time on our mind. If
the Anti-Nebraska men of this State want
q representative at Washington, who
won't need to be petitioned and public
meeting-ed, and watched and staked all
round to be kept straight-if the Home
stead men want a man who will be right
every time on that question-if the friends
of economy and reform generally in our
government, want man who will never
miss fire on those points-if Democrats
want a man who is Democrat all overin
every sense Of the word, and moreover if
the men Of our State, want one who is a
lEan to earn and keep good name for
them at the seat of government, let them
take CHAs. DURKEE from the handle of
his plough and next winter elect him 10
the United States Senate.
