measure fail, or having their brains blown out If i

That Douglas has committed political suicide ia the
unanimous verdict of bis friends and his champion
George Sanders, who has just been crushed in the
Senate, cannot resusctaC him. The Nebraska outrage
cannot pass the House without other appliances than
Executive spos, and the President and that portion
Of his Cabinet which controls him, have resolved to
buy up the whole Pennsylvania delegation. The Erie
mobiles permitted 70 burn bridges, tear up rail
roads, obstruct the nails violate the injunction and
DEGREES Of Courts, assault and imprsOn Governmental
officers and the like, without Executive interpostlon,
with view of Pennsy yanian votes in favor OF this Ne
brsska outrage The result Of this disgracefn but sup
posed mastery inactivity" the part Of the Admin
istration is in the prem0ntOry symptoms for the
removal of the United States Mint from Philadelphia
to New-York, and 10 withdraw from the Keystone
State the protection which she has so long enjoyed for
her iron and coal productions.
In this emergency, the controlling portion of the Ad
ministaton steps in, say controlling portion because
the Cabinet is not uHiO and proposes TO the Congress
siona Delegations from that state, if they wsuppOrt
this Nebraska bill of denominations then the Unitel
States Mint shall not be removed, and their Iron aud
Coal shall continue to receive Governmental protection
and this proposition, il is said is seconded by men,
hers of Congress from the slave States The high con
tracing parties TO this Compact yainy hatered them
selves that nothing could happen to "supersede' it
or render it imperative; but the indiscreet lOngngs
of DAWSON 10 succeed COOPER in the Senate Cham
Der have occasional Developments that are totally
inconsistent with" the observance Of the Compact
aforesaid Five members have already bOted and the
residue of the Democratic contractors will probably
follow suit.
Such Executive nterpositiOn is not only degrading
and alarming but it exposes the desperate means
sorted TO by an anomalous Administration to perperate
an outrage ruinous ard destructive to the national
prosperity and harmony, and dangerous to the perpe
tuty of the Union itself But there are indications
that this perdiOus Nebraska bill will be defeated in
the House, and my confidence in such result is I'M
doubling OTsEG0.

Useful Hints on Matrimony.

No woman will be likely to dispute with us
when we assert marriage is her destiny. A
man may possibly fill up some sort of an exist
ence without loving; but woman with nothing
to love, cherish, care for and minister to. is an
anomaly in the universc-an existence without
an object. 1t is natural for woman to have
some one to look to for advice and assistance,
as to breathe. Without it no woman ever was
or ever can be happy. 1t is the want of her na-
ture, and nothing can satisfy hex heart with
such void untitled. Now, with the exception
of some occasional Irregularities in the relative
proportion of the sexes, produced by circum-
stances, such as thesettlement of new countries
there is no reason why every man should not
have wife, and every wopan husband, and
this would easily be brought about by the eX-
ercise of common sense and less ambition
Each sex is looking up for something above its
own sphere. The son Of an industrious mech
anic must be professional man, instead of fol-
lowing in his fathers steps; and this is folly the
iiTst. When he looks for wife, the neat indus
trious daughter of a mechanic like his father, ia
not good enongh for him, he must make love to
some fine lady, who is anage in nadvance-that is
her grandfather was mechanic instead of her
father, very aristocratic distinction. On the
other hand, the girl who works for her living,
earning by honest labor, would not deign to
encourage the addresses of laboring man; she
would set her cap for gentleman, forsootb-
The mechanic daughter, educated on her faith
er's earnings to plese set offops, and daughters
who drive honest men away in disgust, and
then become the victims of some sorry sharper
or shallow fool. Now this is wrong--deplora-
bly,, wretchedly wrong. Girls should know that
men superior to themselves in education and
position do not always associate with them for
good. Men should know that by marrying girls
educated in the habits above their fortunes
they are not likely to have good wives. A lit
tie sound sense will enable any man to see it
is better to havea wife grateful for more than
she can expect, than grumbling fortune; but
horrible, jolting, aggravating work to come
down-Home Conlpanion.
