presented to the People. The Albany Journal
thus sums tp the effect of this act of the
president upon the popular mind:
In turning Gov Reeder out of office the
president has saved the anti Nebraska organ
ization, wherever it exists, a great deal of
trouble. The necessity of a combination Of
freemen, which they have been for months
in demonstrating, he proves by single act.
SO far as lies in his power, he shows that
there is no other alternative. He could have
devised no better expedent for building up
the party that is to annihilate him. Thus it
is that 50 those whom the gods would destroy,
they first make mad"
The case, as made up by Pierce, Atchison
and Douglas, for the people to decide upon,
stands thus -
The president, the constitutional preserver
OF law and order trucking to the behests Of
u gang of rioters and usurpers
The vice president, heading the gang of
rioters and usurpers to whom the president
truckles. ... .. u.
Congress, the legislative and representa-
tive power, breaking its own bargains Of 80
years standing; and faithfully obeying the
minority of its constituents.
The judiciary, denying the rights of person
and property, and afraid to apply the law,
lest the criminals arraign and condemn the
court!
A territory that came to our fathers free,
that they handed down free to us, that is free
BY the laws of nature, free by the laws of
The United States, free by the will Of the
majority, and free by the choice OF its in
habtants-forced to swallow the nauseous
dose of slavery, in order that Shareholders
may have the preponderance over freemen in
the control of the federal government! .
1t is not strange that such state of affairs
should awaken desire on the part of some
Americans to return to the principles upon
which the Union was founded, and to 'es-
tablsh Justice, insure domestic tranquility,
and secure the blessings of liberty for them
selves and their posterity. .....-
New Orleans is infested this season with
an unusual number of insects. The Crescent
says that huge black bugs lombard your
papers, Sebastopol like, rattle against your
.craniums, and charge upon your writing ma
terals; while innumerable millions of mos
,quitoes attack you in every direction, assall
ruthlessly your hands, face, ears, nose, and
mouth, and very often obscure the light OF
the gas just above you, while you write"
Gen. Washington must have had an un-
commonly strong and healthy gang of ne
groes, for another Of them has just turned up
at UTrbana, Ohio, frosty with the SHOWS OF
a0S winters The slave of the father of his
county, this venerable antique would be in
valuable to exhibit at Unions safety meetings,
but unfortunately he has his freedom papers
in his pocket, in the handwriting of the Gen
,eral Strange to relate, this ebony fossil has
aad six wives, which factrenders his longev-
ity not only startling but actually be,
wildering thing. ....
LOUISVILLE, Aug. 9--An alteration oc
cared here to-day between KNOWN Nothing
and a Catholic priest, during which the lat
ter was knocked down, when loaded ps-
tol which he had in his pocket, was acciden
tally discharged and killed him.
