HON. J. C. BRECxIyRIDsE.

Those who know any thing of this gentleman,
know full well that he is considered one of the
lights Of the Democratic party, and that it is the
intention of the party in Kentucky, to place him
in the U. S. Senate, to take the place if pos
sible, of the lamented Clay. To show how
much ground work We have for such belief, we
copy the following from the n. Y. Tribune:
The Frankfort (Ky.) Woman announces Hon. j.
c. Breckenridge (dem.) as candidate for re-
election to Congress from that district.
Now it does seem perfectly ridiculous to us,
that the old story that Mr.. Breckenridge is to SUI
percede Gov. German, should for moment re-
ceive the credence of sane men. Where do these
stories come from? Any one with ordinary intel
lisence, can redaily see-they emenate from the
hirelings at Washington, who are moving heaven
and earth to crush those who have opposed them,
and arc in hopes that by these means to ac-
complish their ends. This, probably, will be con-
siderad another defence of Gov. Gorman-verv
well, be it so--wc are satisfied. ..f

AN INTERESTING LETTER

Every reader, We doubt not, will agree with us
that the suboned letter is not only an interesting
one, but that the concluding sentence Of it makes
it remarkable one. 1t is an exact copy of let
Ter written by Winfield Scott, then captain in
the army, during sojourn at his home in Peters
burg, Va, the 18th Of June, 1911, just one year
before the declaration of war. The letter was
addressed to old friend in this city, and is now
in possession of his son, j. L. Edwards, ESQ.,
Great events make great men. 1t seems to have
been the purpose of the young soldier to return
from inactive service, to the law. We are
left in doubt whether he would have become asre-
nowned at the bar as he has in the field but, be
that as it may, war soon followed, and the young
captain, by course of service unexampled in
brilliancy and duration, has risen, step BY step,
in the of distinction, until at the end of A
years, he finds himself on this venerated anniver-
sary, crowned with the highest military; honor
which his country can bestow. Truly has he
swritten his history with his ssword,'H a history
free from stain and which every American may

The CoRPoRAL.-During the American Revolu-
ton, an officer, not habted in the military Co.'S
tune, was passing by where small company Of
soldiers were at work making some repairs on a
small redoubt. The commander Of little squad
was giving orders to those who were under him,
relative to a stick of timber which they were en-
deavoring to raise to the top of the works. The
timber went up hard, and on this account the voice
of the little great man was often heard in hisreg.
ular vocifcrations of s'Hcave away there she
goes hcave ho!''
The officer before spoken of, stopped his horse
when he arrived at the place, and seeing the tim
Der scarcely moved, asked the commander why he
did not take hold and render little aid. The
latter appeared to be somewhat astonished, and
turning to the officer with the authority of an en-
pcror, said: @"
s'Sir, am Corporal" l.sa.
"You are not, though, are you 20 said the OFF,
Ger. 81 was not aware of it," and taking off
his hat and bowling, "I ask your pardon Mr.. Cor
poral."
Upon this he dismounted from his elegant steed,
flung the bride overak post, and lifted till the
sweat stood in drops upon his forehead. When
the timber elevated to its proper station, turn
ing to the man clothed in brief authority: +--'
s'Mr. Corporal Commander" he said, I" when
you have another such job, and have not men
enough, send for your Commander-in- Chief, and
will come and help you second time,''

of possessing the first Uritten Constitution that

ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAlLRoAD.-The Dubuq,

ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAlLRoAD.-The Dubuque
people are in trouble concerning the railroad
which was to terminate at Dunlieth, opposite the
city. "There is many a slip between the cup
and the lip," but we hope in this case the slip
will not agitate the nerves of our Dubuque
friends. The Tribune speaking of the matter
says
1t has been rumored within the last few days,
that a majority of the Directors of the Illinois
Central Railroad, had decided not to incur the
expense of finishing their road to Dubuque until
the expiration of the time mentioned in their char
ter, which has yet several years to run. We know
the reputation of the President and Directors Of
the company so well, and have so much confidence
in their repeated pledges that the road shall be
finished to Dunleith early in the spring, that we
are entirely unwilling to lend the least counten-
ance to the report unless we have the most relia-
BILE and undoubted evidence Of its truth.
We believe the report to have arisen from a
misconstruction of one Of their advertisements
recently issued and we believe the Directors to
be men of such sterling stuff. that they will not
be induced even in these hard times, to suly their
fair regulations as reliable men, for the paltry
sum of $500,O0O, the supposed cost of finishing
the road from Galena to Dunleith.
We have as yet, in fact, no evidence to cause
US to doubt, that the road will be completed strict
ly in accordance with repeated pledges of this,
one of the most wealthy and influential corpora
tons in the nation. ..l

the popular sovereignty" doctrine in full blast.
This is NO more than we expected when we learn
ed who the Committee were (Jones, Of Iowa,
Douglas, &c.) to whom the Bib was referred. It
appears that an effort was made towards the close
of the session, to tack the House Bill (annulng
the Charter) on to private Bill, which was de.
feated and thus ends the excitement on the Rail-
road subject. The report Of the Committee is
yet to be acted upon by the Senate. s-o
But, if this news is not gratifying 10 those who
have fought the fraud, the news of the passage
OF MIR. Douglas Bill for three Pacific Railroads,
through the House, certainly is. One of these
Railroads must pass through and naturally great
ly benefit our Territory. The Bill had previous
" passed the Senate and it is hoped will receive
the signature of tho President.
Now as the question Of annulment or non-an-
nulment has been settled, we hope the Railroad
Company will commence operations and push
matters to q happy termination. If they will do
this, they will do more than we expect.
