The daily comet. [volume] (Baton Rouge, La.) 1850-1856, 1856-01-16

PoIIrIcAL MovEMENrs.-It is un-
derstood that the Governor elect, will
DO present at tho organization Of the
Senate, as the representative Of West
Feliciana. His resignation is to take
effect on that day. We learn that
there is movement on the part Of the
city Democracy to introduce bill to
divide tue Office of Sheriff of Orleans
into six parts. Perhaps it will not be
50 difficult for them to get six as it is
to find one. Last season we recollect.
that there was strong effort on the
part Of the city democracy, to take
away the right Of Auctioneers to make
Judicial sales, and give this kind Of
business to the Sheriff. 1t is another
bull" now. The host Of idlers. seek
ing Office under Major Hufty, can now
breath free, aud for the noncc spit on
their hands, and wait for the wap gon.
Should such bill pass. no boubt the
major will feel under an eternal bond
Of gratitude to his Democratic friends !;
because it will relieve him in a great
measure Of the onerous duties he has
been called on to discharge, which
will be palliative offset to a reduc-
ton Of fees and perquisites. How
would the same honest gentleman who
urged so strenously last year that the
Sheriff should make all the Judicial
Sales 10 Orleans, like to support the
measure this season, under the slight
variation Of circumstances which have
taken place ?

We trust our fellow Democrats through.
out the county will see the necessity of an
early organization in each township. The
present campaign is one Of more than ordin
sry interest. Great questions are pending
and every true, earnest. hearted Democrat
is called upon to be up and doing while
there is time and opportunity to work, The
future before us is bright. That BUCHANAN
and BRECKENRIDGE will be elected, there is
no reasonable doubt. But there are local
as well as National interests to BIO looked
to. There is District Judge, member Of
Congress and State and county officers to be
elected in October. Our Democratic breth.
ern around us have gone to work nobly.-
Let US initiate their example.

DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET.
The working Mem OF the Country
--T'hcy are the RGlers.

The great mass Of the American people
are LABoREKs. In our country, the hand
made hard and bony by daily toll, is an en-
blem of honor. The real nobility of the land
are those who earn their daily bread in the
work shops and the grainfelds. These are
they who have builded all the monuments of
greatness and power which crown and adorn
our beloved land Under their hands, the
forests have melted away, the wilderness
he's blossomed into q garden - smiling
hcmes have risen up on every hill and in eve
ry valloy-cities have come forth as at the
command of the enchanter, until our land
has become The richest, proudest and happi-
est on the face Of the globe.
But the toiling millions who have wrought
out such wonders, work with their minds as
we'll as with their hands. Here, the labor
ers and the king are one and the same
They are the rulers of our country. For
eighty yeurs, they have governed it wisely
and well. Politicians may talk, and plan
and figure at results; they may discuss
measures, hold conventions, adopt platforms
and nominate candidates, but after all, their
whole work has to be reviewed, passed up
on and condemned Or approved by the labor
ing people.
These-the rulers of the land, spend but
little time in attending conventions or mu-
king political speeches. The ripening
grain calls the farmer to his fields and the
hum Of machinery, the mechanic to his work
shop. They have homes to protect and
wives and children to care for. They are
brave, patriotic and intelligent In times Of
public danger, their arms are our defence,
and in times OF peace, their impartial judge
ment is the guarantee of our prosperity. A
partizan may 5e bri5ed. Ambition for Of
fee or honor may lead him astray from the
path of integrity. But the people cannot
he bribed. They are not looking for Office
or honor; and hence the masses, to what.
ever party they may be long, are always
honest and sincere in their purposes. Let
them be properly informed, and the right
will always be achieved however much
demagogues may labor for a contrary decis.
ion.
To the stern integrity and the good com
mon sense of the laboring men Of the Union
must we look for verdict in reference tc
the choice of the men and measures whi"h
ore to control the destiny of our country fol
the next four years. With confidence, we
await the result.

COnfemnf Of Court.

It appears that our minister at st. James,
has had the audacity to appear at the
Queens late levee with friend who was
dressed in the usual appenduges OF American
costume. His crime consisted in wearing a
frock coat, black cravat and yellow vest!
But he could not como in. Although ga
cat may look at King" the lord Chamber
lain informed him that he could not see
the Queen Uithout decent clothes. Like bull
or turkey that will go mad at the sight of
red, the worthy chamberlain could not stand
the yellow. 1t was too much for him-he
was overcome. A yankee in yellow vest,
approach the Queen-it was preposterous!
So Mr.. Dallas withdrew with his friend
and it is to be hoped the matter will be ad-
iustcd without war or rumOrs Of war.
In this occurrence, we are reminded OF
the stanza on the yankee character:
"He will kiss the Queen till he starts blister,
And approach her grace with his old felt hat on;
He'll address tn King by the name of mister,
And ask him the price ofthe throne hc sat on"
But the best of all is the reply of the
Queen on hearing Of the occurrence" Let
them be admitted whatever may be theft
costume"-Marietta Republican.

Gov. CoRwlK FOR FILLMoRE.-Ths Gin.

nounced that Gov. Corwin would address

showing that his opinions were in favor Of

we find the following paragraph:

soy that our notice Of his relation to the pre-
sent Presidential contest 10 not accurate
Mr. Corwln will vote the Fillmore ticket,
if it shall be run with fair prospect Of sue

not likely to carry Ohio. then he will vote
for Fremont and Dayton; that he does sym
pathze with the Republican party in many

treme dogmas announced by them he can
not give his assent. HE BELIEVES ALL

Awful ConAagration in Newark
Destruction o0Property.

We regret to learn, that yesterday about
the middle of the day, amost fearful conila-
grafton visited our neighboring town, orca-
sionng the destruction of vast amount of
property. The fire originated in the stable
Of the Ohio House, and burnt to the ground
thut hotel and the American House, leaving
as our informant ststed,not even wall stan
ding,-the Stabling Of the same the Post
Office, and all the buildings east Of the
American and north of the Court House.
The officers about the Post Office succeed
ed in getting II the papers out safely which
they were compelled to throw on the ground
within the Court House Square, The Court
House caught several times, and was deemed
in such danger that tho county officers found
it necessary to hurry out ull the papers and
records of the county, and pile them OH the
ground for preservation.
Our informant, leaving SO soon after this
lamentable occurrence, could give US no es-
innate Of the probable value of the proper
ty destroyed, but it must be very great. We
sympathize most deeply with our friends oi
Newark in their terrible mislortune.-Ohio 10

The GeEritf Smith Party.

However much the friends of GERRIrT
SMITH and JOHN G. FREMONT may now
quarrel with each other, and however bitter
the apparent warfare, there can be but little
doubt that both are parts of the same party,
and on the day of the Presidential election
will act in concert with each other. They
will unite few days before the Presidential
election. Gerritt Smith will resign, and
the "radical abolitionists" will be whipped
into the support of Fremont and Dayton,
Notwithstanding their pro.slovery votes in
the Senate, and their utter want of qualif.
cations for the Office to which they are nom-
mated. There will be no electoral ticket
put forth by the Gerritt Smith men in Ohio.
Those who once constituted the sold Lber.
ty Guard" and who are sincerely in favor Of
the abolition of slavery every where, will be
compelled to vote for men whose principles
they condemn, or stay at home.
We make no pretensons to the gift Of
prophecy, but unless the signs of the times
greatly mislead, what is above written will
prove true in every particular. Already has
Gerritt Smith met in Convention with the
friends OF Fremont and taken an active part
in their deliberations. Instead Of being
himself candidate for Office, he is really
,ne OF the "wheel horses" in the Black Re.
publican party.
