Or ALL THE DEVILS AVOID THE Blue
Remember this is a comical world, given TO
Observation-Disclosures, if you would thriv G
and have "tallow.covered kidneys," you must
tickle the community and cut melancholy.
Nobody wants to listen to distress if he can
possibly avoid tin a word, misery is "dem
bore" and won't be tolerated. A comedian
can extract his hundred dollars, from almost
any community-a beggar is doing deuced
good business il he raises two loaves Of bread.
For children TO complain is all very well, Mr..
Ferguson; but for a man with good sense to
90 about like dog with scorbu,ic Uranium
lis q ridiculous waste of good grunting. that
might better be kept for the cholic. Even
the character Of Cicero is essened by the
complaints he suffered to escape him; and
who can read the sad things written by Ovid,
without despising the man whose mistortunes
debased where they ought to have exalted
his mind. Men who have experienced evils
which are really ola trivial nature, should be
in haste to forget them. These things are
important to themselves; but why should
they suppose them sufficiently interesting to
engage the attention of others! Again, we
say, if you have trouble, just keep it to your.
self; jolly fellow can raise half eagle at
any time; dismal individual could not effect
the loan of one and ninepence if his soul
depended on it. Be cheerful, therefore, for
your own interest. Or, to condense the
whole subject into one line, "laugh and grow
fat" Everybody does it who has any ex-
pectation OF rising in the world.

A Good Hit.

.
One Of the chief charges against the
American party is, that it is secret politi.
cal society, and its business is transacted in
"midnight secret caucuses." Mr.. Patton,
the distinguished candidate of the America
party for Attorney General. ins Virginia.
thu turns the tablespoon those who made
the charge. The following is an extract
from his recent speech at Richmond:
The American party choose to hold their
meetings in secret. as the Wing and d. mo.
cratic parties have been and are in the habit
OF holding secret caucuses by night or dav.
This party enter, 1t is said, into mutual OBJ
legations as 10 their party actions, no matter
what is their form, they can't be held more
binding than the Democrats claim to hold
the implied obligations of their party. A vi
olation Of them, by disobeying the behest oil
the party or quitting it, is followed by the
most vehement denunciation, while this par.
ty. as I understand, allows every man to 70
out when he pleases. and his obligations arc
at an end without denunciation. With the
Democratic party It does not seem to be So
for although no pledge is registered, no ma n
who acts with them can dare to defy their
behests and dissent from their DEGREES. "Il
he does, of with his head. So much for
Buckingham" The freedom for thought
and opinion which they allow at this day
is happily illustrated in an anecdote which
is told of one Of Napoleon's Marshal's, when
Napoleon was q candidate for the first Con.
suship for life. 1t was TO be determined BY
universal suffrage. Marshal Augereau ad.
dressed his division in the following words
I"Soldiers there is an election to-day, to dc.
termine whether Napoleon shall be Consul
for life. Ii is to be a matter of the free
choice Of the people. You will march to
the polls and vote just as you think proper
but if you vote against Napoleon, l will
shoot you as soon az you come back"
II there is any party more exacting thar
the sclf.styled Democracy, we should like
to have it pointed out. From President to
Tide Waiter the screw of party is turned
and no man lie permitted to receive either Of
fee, emolument or votes, whose creed ant
practice do not square precisely with the de
mands of the irresponsible leaders who NEE
in lawyers Offices and back lrooms, concoc,
resolutions. construct platforms, select can
didates. make tickets, oil machinery, an
plan schemes. True. they make show o
publicity at their conventions, but the mem
bers are for the most part puppets, who Ar
brought upon the stage to go through "the
motions" agreed upon in secret, Mr.. PattoI
} has been a Democrat, and he we'll discribel
the tyranny Of the caba rule.

PRESIDENTIAL REJOICING OVER THE Our

pendent of the Missouri Republican, writes
as follows, under date Of April llth:
"Had the new territories been left to abide
their time, without any attempt TO force or
foster upon them a population to effect sec
tional purposes, The impression here is they
would eventually have become free territory.
As it is, however, the seal of slavery is fix.
ed upon Kansas, and the Nebraska portion
of the administration is in high glee at the
result. Quite a rejoicing came off q! the
White House on the day the news reached
Us, and the toast, the song and the wine,

that worthy Chief Magistrate, "once on
a tme," was fond Of glass Of good brandy
and water, as many other gentlemen are
do not say he ever INDUCES nowadays,
but do know that he frequently visits the
hie hts Of Georgetown for his health. and the
day after the festivities incident upon the
result of the Kansas election, it became ne.

The PEOPLES PRocLAMArroS.-The citi.

reasonable period of probation. have been
smphatically convinced tina, the present Gov.

positively unfit for, and incompetent to. the
duties of this high and responsible position.
This assertion is demonstrated to universal
satisfaction in want of acquaintance with

their character and general necessities. and
other important points of view, as shown in
every official step which he has taken from
the time that he commenced acting in the

The Citizens Of Kansas Territory regard
the appointment of any man as Governor of a
people without reference to the CHOICE Of
those who are of necessity to become subject
to his administration, as an exercise of ar
bitrary power. unsustained by any sanction
of republican form, principle or precedent:

the evils and inconveniences inflicted upon
them from the Executive Chair of Kansas

1t is, therefore, earnestly enjoined upon
the citizens of the different Districts through
out the Territory to send one Delegate to
Leavenworth City on the 28th of the presen,
