New HAMPSHIRE. The State Election in
New Hampshire takes place March IIth.-
The democratic candidate for Governor, Ma
THANIEL B. BAKER, is a staGnch friend of the
national administration. and his popularity
with the democracy of New Hampshire is un-
disPutable. His opponents acknowledge his
excellence Of character and ability. New
Hampshire will be found marching straight up
TO the work Of March. In the meantime, the
wings and abolitonists of that Stale are up TO
their old game of deception. The Nashua
Gazette says -
The object of the agitation the wings and
abolitionists are getting up by holding anti
Nebraska meetings is to affect the coming
election. They want to have two abolition
wing senators sent to the I. S. senate most
amazingly. They will be as quiet as sucking
doves about that bill after the election. The
democracy of New Hampshire understand their
tricks, aud will not be deceived by them.

| A DEMoCRATIc OPINION OF THE FIERCE
ADMINIsTRATIoN.-Thc following is from the
Albany Argus Il Democratic paper OF thirty
years standing, and one unsurpassed for abli-
ty or influence in all the Northern States:
Nothing is clearer than that the Admins
traton itself, by its bold and shameless
treachery to its PROFESSIONALLY its not less
bold and shameless prescription and exclusion
from its confidence, of the only reliable
friends Of the policy and principles on which
it came into power-and by its utilization with
the well known enemies of both-is respon-
sible for the distracted and PROSTATE condi-
ton Of the Democracy throughout the con-
federacy. Nowhere, in or out of Congress,
can the Pierce and Marcy administration,
count upon party as reliable or us desirable
us u broken reed. Nowhere, in or out of Con.
gress, does it deserve to have any. Such, be-
yond all peradvcnture, is the deliberate judg-
ment of all who have watched and noted its
iniidelity to princple-its betrayal of the en-
pectations and hopes of the confding party
which gave it eXistence--its pusianimity and
utter want Of any well defined characteristic
beyond an instructive prOciyity to corrupt and
debauch through the seductive Appliances Of
office, to court disreputable and ilegitimate
political associations, and to skulk RESPONSE
biity. Few are now to be found, beyond the
Swiss corps who have been bought up with
''thc spos"-if they can be regarded as cx-
ceptions-who entertain feeling even of
respect for IN administration whose course
has thus been characterized by dupicty, ter
giversaton, and treachcry. The Democratic
masses are everywhere repenting in sack
cloth and ashes, their agency in giving it the
breath of life--and ere awaiting impaticntly
the time when it shalt cease to exist, and
when they can atone for the past by at least
IN effort to rescue the party and the country
from the disgrace Of another Pierce and Mar
cy abortion.

A CALIFORNIA LAKE.-Thc PIaccrvlle Her.
aid states TINT Lake Biglcr is one Of the Gu.
riosities of California. 1t is Il lake fifty miles
long and from ten TO twenty miles in width,
situated between two distinct ridges of the
Sierra Nevada, and about one and half miles
north of the road to Carson's valley. Ac-
cording to the Herald it is perfect paragon
of lake-a miniature paradise among the
mountains. It's wildly beautiful and ROMAN
tic shores are lined with forests, and its WA
tiers which never freeze, although surrounded
by snow during grea: part Of the year,
abound in many varieties of fish, among which
the salmon and trout predominant. So clear
are its waters that the objects on the bottom
are distinctly visible at u depth of thirty or
forty feet. Upon the eastern side of the lake
is vast cavern extending to an unknown
distance into the heart of the mountain. The
entrance is arched in q peculiar manner, and
the place, which has never been explored, is
believed to be the abode of the evil spirits OF
the mountains.

A BOLD LEAP-The st. Louis Republican
says u few days since Il fine young mare
known as "Fanny Walker" and belonging to
J. r. Barrett, Of that city, made 4 jump which
is uuequalled in the history of horses. She
was being conveyed to Springfield, Illinois
and was placed in one of the cattle cars, where
she was, it was thought, firmly tied. While
the train was running at the rate of twenty
miles an hour, she leaped over the balustrade
OF the car in which she was placed without
ever touching "hair or hide" lit firmly on hel
feet without even stagger, and darted across
the prairie, head and tail up!
