We find the following in an exchange. We
do not know to whom to attribute its author

ing into small compass the principles Of
the Democratic crecd-princlples which we

at least, as the government shall last. If the
doctrines taught 10y this creed be carried out
to their fullest extent, there need be no fear
Of dissolution nor OF wrong-our people

power, wealth, respectabiity, intelligence
and happiness, and we shall continue to be-

they taught. Here is the creed:

IMPORTANT DIscovERY-A recent dis
covery in electro-metalurgy has recently
been demonstrated in this State, by means
of which an alloy of two or more metals
may be preciptated upon another metallic
surface. The object sought was method
by WHICH the gold coins of any country
might be simulated in color, and so perfectly
has the experiment succeeded, that the pecu-
liar tint of the gold coin of the United States
was obtained. The principal object OF the
inventor was to detect counterfeits, where
these means have been adopted, but as the
experiments for the above purpose are as yet
incomplete we shall say nothing farther on
the subject, until further matured. In due
time we shall publish the result of the gen
tleman's labors with full directions for the
mani pulations. Journal.
