Wilmington and the Crimen.

At last it would seem as though the war had reach
ed u.s. and commenced its depredations upon our com
merce. Our Steamship, named after the old North
State and constructed TO between Philadelphia
and Wilmington is to leave the former port on Sat
urday next for Liverpool, upon her arrival at which
point it is supposed that she will be chartered by the
British Government TO 60 to the Crimea with troops
and stores-to carry bayones instead of barres-red-
coats instead of rosin.
Was there no other steamship in the whole united
world but our one, that they must have that? Could
Bull and Bull.frog find no other conveyance to the
devil but on board the &c North Carolina" Iis truly
hard that our tole fleet Of steamship must be turned
nto an accessory of destruction and loaded with
bombshes and other provisions. But let her go. We
intend building one on own hook some of these
DAYS, and we want clear field for our operations
The keel Of our and splendid steamship will be
laid as soon as we hear of rich old cOdger hav

The Re-EIection of Mr.. slldon.

The Hon. John Sdell, at present United States
Senator from Louisiana, was reelected on the 22d
inst, by the Legislature Of that State for six years
after the expiration of his present term. Mr. SlIde
is known as o Democrat of the stratest sect - one
in whom there is no sympathy with 1Sms and lncon'
sstencies and who had been for the last year the OBJ
ect of the most bitter hostility on the part OF the new
organ; cation, and his exclusion from the United
States Senate cherished object with its members
Under these circumstances, the reelection OF MI
Shdell by vote of "A votes, while his eompehtor'
John Moore received 80 votes and all others = IS
triumph of Democracy equal to any known IN the
palmiest days of the party, and affords anotnef evil
dence of the fact that of the various forms OF
opposition to the Democratic party and It's PRESIDENT
have been able to make any serious impression a.
the South 1t is a noteworthy fact, that no single
Southern State that went for Pierce and King, has
since failed in State election to go for the Demo
cratic party, and that in the fullest sense OF the
term, not in the halfway no-party SORT OF way that
we sometimes hear popularity - hunters talk Ihey

There is a Democratic party-a party which, at every
turn of the wheel asserts its position as the party OF
the country and there is a party in opposition to
this composed at different times, of different elements
but always having a common antagonlsm TO the
great Democratic principle Whatever little loca
fuses or feuds may to weaken or divide this
great Democratic party, the principle remains, and
spite of Know Nothingism, or any other form o.
opposition predominant in all great contests at the
South The shortsighted politician who has neither
fixed principle to guide him in the right way mol
dscernment enough to indicate TO him the prudent
one, may felicitate himself upon his smartness IN
getting into every little eddy, misaking it for the
main current and thus while he thinks he is making
famous progress he finds himself moving in circle
aimessly and unprof!ably, neither serving himself
his party, nor his country; no to the promo
ton for which he seeks, but immeasurably farther
from the confidence of all consistent men,

The Foreign Military Companies of Massachusetts.
The Boston Adrertiser, of Monday strongly doubts
the expediency of the measure in reference TO the
military, recommended by the Governor, and pur-
sued by him, far depends on executive action.
The probability is, that on this, as on many other
points, the Governors views rather immature.
His recommendations were penned under the inhu.

Certain general principles, perhaps correct principles
if properly qualified and wisely applied, are dwelt
upon, exaggerated and distorted Without taking

from which none but practical mischief can ensue >
The defamation of the Council, not only against
persons of foreign birth, but of foreign erracton the
