No one would desire to live under the gov

be nothing less than anarchy. We deny
the power Of the people to govern in that
capacity. But, under our republican form
of government, where the people. through
authorized representatives, govern, we be-

capacity so to do. By taking from the
Legislature its delegated function to max G

whence it come, you destroy the essence
OF republican government, and assimilate
to anarchy, or pure democracy. From
the very nature of republic, the people
in their sovereign capacity are Invested Of
the direct power of making laws-that is
the province Of their delegated agents, and
when you transfer the law-making power
from the Legislature to the ballot box, you
at once en,rench upon rights surrendered
by the people to government.

One Of the most elegant literary enter
prises of the year, and the more deserving OF
general favor from the generous feelings
which originated it, is one we now take oc-
casion to introduce to our readers, sincerely
hoping it will meet with their practical appro-
bation-their patronage. Lewis Gaylarc
Clark has been for twenty years editor OF the
leading literary magazine in this country. the
Knickerbocker. If every old reader of that
periodical have not an affection for the man
who has so long and SO sweetly spoken to
him, in the very music of words, and who has
SO earnestly labored to develop the literary
resources of the country, he has heart not
open to the kindlier emotions of friendship
But Mr.. Clark has not been rewarded accord.
ing to his labors or his abilities. He is still
poor. His literary friends, comprising the
most distinguished writers in the country,
have in view of these circumstances, COM
bined to render Mr.. Clark a complimentary
tribute Of a substantial. nature. With this
view they have issued prospectus for the
"Kaickerbocker Gallery" miscellany Of Lit
erature and Art, in one splendid octave vol
ume, comprising original literary papers by
the most eminent living American authors,
with forty portraits on steel, from original pic
lures. We need not say, that under the pat
ronage of the most distinguished American
authors, each one contributing to the volume
an original article, and the highest efforts OF
American art contributed to the ornament OF
the book, it will not only be the most spen-
did work of the age, but probably one OF
the richest ever issued from the press of this
country. The committee having the publ
cation of this work in charge. promise as
much. The entire profits of the enterprise
will be invested for Mr.. Clark. We hope a
large number Of copies will be subscribed for
in Evansville. Mr. Earnheart, of the Tele-
graph office, has been solicited as an old friend
and patron of the Knickerbocker, to receive
the names Of those wishing to subscribe here
for the work. The price of the book in Cloth
Extra, Guilt edges, is SIS 90; in Turkey Ex-

Affairs at Warrington.


AN IssIDER, writing from the Capitol to the
National Democrat, says: "You can form no
idea of the modification felt by the admins
tration at the result of Mr.. Breckinridge's as
sault on Mr.. Cutting" Mr.. Breckenridge, it
appears, was the chosen mouth-piece of the
administration in the House Of Representa-
tives. to do the bullying and "crushing out"
service ofhis masters. This was bold game
on the part of the administration, and it Sc
lected one of the bravest and most talented
men in the House to wage the war of ami
hilation upon Mr.. Cutting and the New York
"Hards." This "crushing out" expedition,
backed up as it was by the administration,
which, in its self-conceit, believed that its
majority in numbers and its advantage of po-
stion would insure success, was all well
enough planned, but very badly executed
The assaulting forces "caught Tartar" just
as they were about glorying in their victory.
They were caught at a game of their own
choosing, and beaten with weapons of their
own selection. DIR. Cutting, single handed
demonstrated that he feared not their COM
bincd forces, either in the House or OH the
"Plains of Bladens5urgh." Southern chiv-
airy found an unexpected foe from Gotham,
that not only had the power to sustain a right
position anywhere, but he knew no fear!-
He first successfully welded the weapons Of
argument and logic, against all opposition.
The administration then put forward their
Achilles, to wage an offensive war, and at
tack MIR. Cutting as they supposed at weak
point, and thus thwart his purpose, by insult
and bullying, and retrieve their more parlia-
mentary defeat. But their chagrin was only
more keen when they found him none the less
formidable IN the ".feld'' than in the House.
lNsIDER says: "NOt only the adminstra.
ton, but many Southern gentlemen here are
exceedingly mortified at the turn things have
taken" "Some of the latter curse the ad
m;nistration, and declare that hey have
done all they can for it, but they are tired o
its perpetual blunders."
The Cabinet has discovered its mistake il
s'tting DIR. Breckenridge to assault Mr. Cut
ting and The New York Democracy. Davi
Is said to acknowledge openly, that he ha
misunderstood New York politics.
The President bushes hims' If in gullinq tn,
old fashioned Democrats, that visit Washing
ton and "pitch in" to him for distractinp IN,
party, by blandly assuring them that ''befor
this Congfess closes they shall have no fur
Their reason to complain" But he can in
spire no hope! They say "he plays loosin
game all The time" They have no cont;
dence in his capacity to extrcate the part
from its many endorsements.
