L
EplroR OF CoMEr-Sir: You will d.
me the favor to republi,h the following ex'
tract from the Dem. .Adrocate, of the 30tt
ulto., with the commentary upon the faets
which follow:
"ELEcToN FOR CoNsTABLE.-An election
will be held on Saturday, the lst., Decem.
ber, for Constable in Ward No. 2. Mr.
WILLIAM SEVERE 10 the Democratic candi-
date. He will make an efficient and faith.
full officer if his fellow citizens entrust the
business Of the Office to his hands, which
we hav'nt doubt they will do. The poll
will be opened at the usual time and place. +"
What are the facts, and why was the
gentleman above named, formally announc.
ed - the Democratic candidate" the day
before the election. Mr.. Severe, until the
organization Of the American party, was a
staunch Wing and as such-of course, op-
posed al Democratic measures, and men.
He joined the American party, and at the
time, the present incumbent of the respon-
sible political Office Of Constable, was nomi.
mated, Mr. Severe, was 4 candidate for the
nomination. Not getting, it, uninAuenc.
ed by friends or mericinary motives" he
withdrew from the American party-pub.
lished his card in the common sense cpl.
demic," and went into the bosom of the
Democratic fold. With the ink scarcely
dry on his withdraw, he is taken up, by
the party protesting to be governed by pris-
ciple, only; and with flourish of trumpets
named (only to be beaten) as the Demo-
cratic candidate" Ipretend to be demo.
crat, and should like a note in way of ex.
PLANTATION for this mode of procedure. The
question is, can man honestly and con-
believe, that the principles,
advocated by the American party, are
right? f,t is supposable case, then why is
it-that the only party governed by prin-
ciple 1.-THE unde6led and incorruptible d

to torsake their principles lit they have

The FIRST Meeting Of Boz and Pen.
dennis.-It is interesting to remember
that these two eminent men first met
when there was a vacancy in the
pictorial department of the "Pickwick
Papers, and Thackeray-then a young
and comparatively unknown artist
aspired to the proud position" of illus-
trating "Boz." Times have changed
since then and at the Thackeray, din
n'r the two novelists met on fairer,
justel and more equal terms. 1t is
pleasant to think that between these
two rivals. as they are often called,
the most friendly relations prevail
and that Mr.. Dickens pronounees Mr..
Thackersy, and Mr.. Thakeray Mr..
Dickens. to be the most distinguished
NOVELIST Of the age.

A CRUc1FIxIoN IN CHINA.--An
American. writing from China to the
N. Y. Times, after giving an account
of the numerous executions Of the
rebels. says:
Two weeks since, to vary the scene,
they had a crucifxion. A women
was sentenced to be crucified for the
crime Of having given birth to one Of
the rebel chiefs. If father is q re-
bel. his family is considered the same,
and the whole family from the old
man Of four-score to the child of four
years, share the same fate. The poor
women was nailed to the cross while
living, cash made across the fore
head to the bone, and the skin pealed
down so as to hang over the eyes {;
after which the breasts were cut off !;
they then proceeded to break every
bone in her body; a large knife was
next trust into the throat and passed
downward, cutting the chest OPEN
The executioner then thrust in bis
hand, and grasping the heart, tore it
from its socket, and laid it beating
and reeking before the judge. At
Shanghai they drown them by dozens.

The STATUTES AT LARaE.-It is
painful to reflect, that notwithstand-
ing an annual expenditure on the part
Of this State-of. say-at low figure
$4,000, to revise the Statutes; that
every succeeding attempt to do the
work. only .confounds confusion. A
gentleman remarked the other night,
in company with severel gentlemen,
that the vopminous work from the
pen and scil1ors. Of Mr.. Phillips, for
which the State has paid the modest
sum Of $4,000, is such u medly of
contradictions, that, that paragon Of
lawyers, who resides in Philadelphia,
might take the book and strain his
eyes-out their sockets. to find what
the law is; and come of. no wiser,
than others, who with their eyes open,
are yet in the dark.
The last legislature ran over this
volume, as it did all things else, out
Of which nothing could be made; and
Is the book is already bound in calf to
lay on the library shelf with King
l. Co.'S. digest--which only costs
about $40,000-of course the next
legislature, will consider the propriety
Of having tho laws again revised. and
give some other faithful partizan law
yer, ajob. The same gentleman above
referred to, (who is lawyer) said that
in company with an experienced mem.
Der Of his profession, they spent a
whole day, in furitless effort to find
the law governing SUGGESTIONS.
1t is we'll know in reference to this
matter. that the laws of the land, are
not intended fer the comprehension of
the common mind but for Heavens
sake-we say it in behalf of the tax
ridden people,-do let us have, the
statutes at large, oolated in some fash.
