BEAT AGAIS.-At the race over the Metairie
course, on the 9th inst, for the Jockey club
purse, the celebrated Red River horse Lecomte
was beaten by Arrow, the property Of "a. T.
Bingaman, Of Natchez. The Delta says that
there was q fair test Of the horses, and in this
Instance, at least, We think there can be no
room. for a charge Of ..jockeying." for the very
good reason that Arrow came in at the end OF
the last heat in better condition than Lecomte
The tract was desperately heavy. The race
was very exciting, because 1t was so closely
contested, and the last heat was SO much in
earnest that we, who do not pretend to under
stand the tricks Of the race track, arc forced to
She conclusion that Arrow fairly defeated Lee

The Washington Union, president Pierce
official moush-piece, Directing to the resolutions
4 adopted at the soft-shell Pierce convention, oil
I New York, which expressed unmtigated and
unceasing hostility to the extension ofslavery
to free territory said: eve object because the
convention protested to be democratic con
venton, and it is no part of the creed Of demo
crat as such, either to advocate or oppose the
extension of slavery-he may do the one or the
otherin the exercise of his rights as a citizen,
and not offend against his democratic fealty''
That is candid, at any rate. What more is
ex-governor Reeder, general Lane, Chase, Gid
dings, or John Van Buren, doing than, Gin the
exercise of his rights as a" democratic "citi-
zen,' opposing the extension of slavery? Why
the presidents organ officially proclaims thatit
is one of their 'trghts as citizen, and does not
offend against their democratic fealtyn' The
friends and partisans of president Pierce's ex-
governor of Kansas-the notorious abolitionist,
Reeder-are now, Sin the exercise of their
Frghts, as accorded by the Washington Uni
on, arrayed in open rebellion against the
laws of the territory, and with muskcts and re-
volvers in their hands bid defiance to the off
GERS OF justice, and swear that they will even
unto death oppose the introduction of slavery
into Kansas. All this they may do, according
to the presidents official organ, and mot offend
against their democratic fealty." Pierce
democratic leaders and stump
orators in the anti-slavery States, may not 60
into party conventions and resolve forever
to bear ''hostility to the extension ofsavery to
free territory" but, "in the exercise of their
rights as citizens" they may with impunity
and unrebuked "oppose the extension of slave
y" to their hearts content, "and not offend
against their democratic fealty." This is Gu
'ous analysis Of Pierce democracy, and deserv
ng of the attention of southerners. Will the
louisiana Courier, the Delta, or any other of
he leading democratic journals of the south,
INFORM us as to how they like the new readings
,iven to the principles of their party? Do I
hey coincide with the sentiments uttered by
