Union aud Harm ony.

The Columbia county Democratic Conven-

Columbia and Montour, have unanimously
cononrred in the nomination mane by Mon
tour. of John G. Montgomery, Esq, for AS
sembly. Of Mr. Monrgomery's election there
can be no doubt Mi. Maxwell was urged
by indiscreel friends, TO run against the Tick
etr but he does himself credit by declining to
accede 10 such request, and pledging himself
10 support The ticket.
Mr., Tefner, of Derry, has likewise been
solicited TO run as volunteer, but he declines
to have his name thus used by the opponents
-of the democratic organization, and will him
self support Mr.. Wagner. Mr.. Terner thus
strengthens himself with the Democratic par

character and good qualifications, he will be

The FIIgh. Of SANTA Anna.

The flight of Santa Anna from Mexico is
confirmed by the late adyces from Havana /,
to which port, it itappears, he has safely fled.
The abdication was not without lumnlt, and
has left an open quarrel for the Presidency,
which may give some trouble to his success

leo for six months, but there are others who
will want 10 have hand in The business Of
President making and then the trouble will
begin. Senia Anna. before he left, issued q
proclamation, deposiling the Government! III
the hands of Pavoni, Vega and Salas; but
those gentlemen did not seem to be am.
bilious OF retaining the honors. In the City
of Mexico, The popnlace showed their appre-
citation of their new-found liberty by mob
biug and fobbing the bankers. The military
fired upon the mob, and killed some and
wounded others. The new Govemmentsent
expresses 10 the various Governors OF the
Departments or States, requesting them TO
pronounce, and al the same time they sent
TO the commanders of the liberal forces, 10
inform them that everything had been reeu-
lated according 10 their views, and 10 request
them 10 come 10 the capital alone, leaving
their forces behind them, for the purpose OF
elecling officers aud arranging the Govern
ment. The liberal party, however, were not
satisfied, and sent TO the commander, tell
ing them 10 bring their forces, and that they
would be able 10 carry out their plans. The
Government was, in fact, composed of a
large proportion Of the members of the last
one, closely united with the Church, for
which reasons the liberals could not anopl it.
The press is now free and The Vertad, the
Monitor Republican,, the Patra and The Rev.

THE TICKET.

During court this week we have heard q
number Of prominent Democrats express
their pleasure and satisfaction with the Dem
ocraiic county ticket. Every person grants
that all the nominees will make excellent
and competent officers and The Kuow.Noth-
ings alone seem troubled as 10 what is best
for them TO do. They don't even hint that
the country would be ruined by the officers
now on the Democratic ticket, but they
strongly intimate that they would like all the
Offices themselves.
We are very sorry 10 see our clever friend
Mr.. Cole in The company and control of the
Know. NoihiBgs. He submitted his claims
TO the Democratic county convention and
was fairly and honorably treaied by ii. No
disrespecl was intended, and no injury done
him when anolher competent gentleman re.
ceived the nomination.
When a man submits his claims to con.
vertion and is fairly treated by it, he can
gain neither respect nor profit by deserving
the party because he did not receive nom.
ina,ion. Each candidate before conven.
tion expects the Others 10 support him if he
is successful, and honesty would require lha
if he is not nominated he should treat others
as he wished 10 be e-treaied. The men whom
we have seen lately fatlering Mr. Cole are
notorious Know -Nolhngs who never bore
any love for the Democratic party, and who
were both last year and in the fall OF 1 $50 The
leading spirits in opposition 10 the Democrat

did portion Of the voters will understand the
motives which have made MIR. Cole a candi

GEN. HoUsToN AND HIsToRY.-G%n. Sam
Houston, in giving in his adhesion. 10 the Sc
cret order,' justifies his course by saying the
frs! secret political society formed in this
country was the Cincinnati Society, that
General Washington was one of its members,
and that no man was eligible for member
ship in The society unless he was an Ameri-
can. General Housion's knowledge of the
history Of his own country must be rather
deficient for one who processes SO much ma
tive patriotism. The Cincinnati Society was
not political al all, nor was ii secret organi.
zatIon. II was formed by the officers of the
revolutionary army, to perpe,uate their long
cherished friendship and social intercourse,
and that they might, al regular annual peri
ords, communicate with each other, and re-
vive recollection OF the friendly bonds by
which they were connected. A fund was
also provided 10 relieve any of the officers
who might become unfortunate. Such ma
tive born citizens as Lafayette, Steuben, and
Kosciusko were members of the Society,"
Sam must not 60 so far off the track if he
wishes 10 "run" successfully as the leader Of
"Young America" for youth can scarcely
excuse ignorance or perversion of the history
OF ones native coun,ry.--Ledger.

The Prejudice of Color.

OF all the prejudices that warp the human
breast, j, might have been supposed the pre-
judice of color would be The last one to affect
the sensibiliies of Horace Greeley. He is
known, far and wide, asa jealous abolition
ist, and the almos, daily indignant protests of
the Tribune agains, the exclusion of coloted
persons from public stages and railroad cars
in the city of New York, and the prohibition
of their promiscuous association with whites
ia places of entertainment, has given color 10
the idea that he is an amalgamatlonst as
well--at least so far as the iniermingling of
whites and blacks in social intercourse is
concerned. But il is not SO. With all his
love for the negro, Mr.. Greeley finds, wher
the experiment of admitting. his colored
brethren freely into the society of whites: is
brought practically before HIM, that his pref
udice is stronger feeling, and much deeper
rooled in his nature than he supposeed.-
He "s!arls at the sight, with shudder
of disgust that he makes no effort 10 con-
ceal.
In his last letter from Europe, Mr.. Greeley
gives an account of visit he paid TO the
"Cremorne Gardens" place of cheap and
general resort at the extreme West end oil
London, and this is the result of his 'experi-
eEce":
