DEMOCRATIC PRoeRkss.-T Theodore Parker,
at the Tabernacle, in New York, on the 18Th,
stated that member Of the present Admins
tration had declared that the government Of
this country ought to be a limited monarchy.
Acting on the opinion, the Slaye-Democracy
are trying to make it one, as fast as they can,
practically. Repnblieanism is a horrible
thing to mostof them. Even the commoncst
canno. speak Of it except in the derisive con-
lection of g black 4 Black Rcpublicanism
is their word.

ALI RrGHT,-The Legislature of Virginia
has passed resolution instructing their Sen
ators and Representatives in Congress TO m
sist on the passage Of law by that body pro-
viding for the payment for runaway slaves
out of the Federal Treasury. 1t will require
but slight advance on the part of the pro-
gressive Democracy, TO insure the support Of
such bin. They might well sustain their
course by the economical argument that it
would cost the country less than the present
arrangement, for the Boston and Cincinnati
Fugitive cases alone cost over fifty thousand
dollars.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1856-03-27

eTF II Mr.. Mason's re- detection was me-
cessary for the reason that he introduced the
Fugitive Slave bill in Congress--how much
more necessary is the election of Mr.. Fill
more, who sanctioned, signed and was the
first to enforce it?-[ Lynchburg yirginian.
This is certainly sound logic. We do not
see very well how the Democracy" can get
round it. As the first to sanction, sign,
and enforce" the Fugitive Slave law, Mr..
Fillmore has earned the everlasting gratitude
Of the Breeders and Trafickers in men, women
and babies.
In commenting upon this idea, the Rich
mond Wing says:
1We believe they (slaveholders) will rally
almost as one man to the support of Fill
more, their noblest and best benefactor now
living. For the sake of the whole country,
and particularly of the South, we invoke
them to aid it.''

portentous story is mt the present moment
passing from mouth to mouth, and meets
with some degree of credence. II is conf
IDENTIFY stated that plot has been discovered,
having for it's object the placing Of Canada
u ader the banner of the stars and stripes, and
that number Of men holding high Office in
this country are implicated in in it. 1t is
said that when Mr.. Seward, sometime ago,
in the United States Senate, spoke of the
probable conduct of Canada, in the event Of
war with England, he proceeded not on
vague estimate of the state of public feeling,
but on tangible, documentary evidence, in the
shape of letters from influential parties on
this side, then actually in his hands. And it
Is added that the conspiracy has been blown
upon, and that the Governor General is now
in possession of the names Of eight members
Of the Canadian Parliament, and a number of
Canadian Magistrates, who have been en-
gagged iii reasonable correspondence with
Mr.. Seward.

Like flakes of snow that fall unperceived
upon the earth, the seemingly unimportant
events of life succeed one another. As the
snow gathers together, SO are our habits
formed. No single fake that is added to
the pile produces sensible change; no single
action creates, however ii may exhibit
mans character; but as the tempest hurls the
avalanche down the mountain, and over
whelms the inhabitant and his habitation, so
