HOW GOES THE EIGHT ,

Speaking Of the great political commoton which is
felt unexamped degree in all parts Of the State Of
| Illinois, thcsst Louis Republican says:
owe could al up columns with notices of meetings
occurring every week in various parts Of the State but this
hardly necessary The Fremonters have broken them
selves down in the race before the adversary has got
fairly under way, and this will give tremendous advantage
to Buchanan the day Of election approaches II
any time doubt Of the result have very little now
Mr.. Buchanan will carry the State triumphantly."
Another contemporary says:
"At the immense meeting At TayIorvie Christian
county, Illinois, the 1Gth the first speaker was General
Thornton Of Shebyvie who said that he had always been
whg but he could not 90 into the camp OF abotonis
would follow henceorth the and noble banner Of demo
cratic principles Numbers ofod-ne wings surrounded him
the close ohs address and intention TO vote for
Buchanan. Col McCernsnd and o. B. Fickn were among
the speakers. hickory pole ITO feet high was raised upon
the occasion and in the procession the first team next to the
band loaded with hrgons Of the ires Of the fair
dressed in whites in the centre Of the wagon stood hickory
pole thirty feet high upon which oated the stripes
There upwards Of sr hundred agos in the procession;
estimating to each wagon would make thousand
persons in the procession besides those who

"THE SATANIC s.. "THE cHEvALIER. !"

In the New York Courier and Enquirer Of Tuesday
morning last there appears long article reechoing the
silly boasts made by Mr. Seward in the Senate a day
preceding the adjournment The idea of the article is
imbodied in the opening paragraph, which reads:
"Never high responsibilities grandly met than
by the republican representatives at Washington through
the entire session which has just terminated Their action
throughout has been preemnenty wise and fithfu and
has secured for their party position which challenges
the respect we'll excites the fear oft opponents"
We have disposition in the world to throw cold water
upon the little innocent boasts which the leaders of the de-
aed usupers may put forth to bolster their hopes but
when we find such a complete and overwhelming extin-
gusher put upon them by of their workmen,
resist the tenn taon to publish it See how
petey the paid captain Of the Herald lets the gas Of
this little bubble of the Courier and Enquirer:
"WAST or STAMINA REPuBuIoAN rARTY.-The
passage Of the army BILL and the triumph Of the Senate
which took place Saturday last prove what all along
conectured that the republican members OF Congress
deficient in stamina. From Speaker Banks down the
latest converts to republication, they all lack courage aud
seconfdence They talk and abber and write by the
hour the day the week but when II action
they weak in the knees and very slight contest
them out. The least noise olamor them Of
their and they ready to retreat and wheel about
and beg to be forgiven"

THE GERMANS IN ILLHoB-In no State perhaps have the
black republicans made desperate effort to secure
the German vote for their candidates than in Illinois On
the 22d ut they had planned great demonstration at
Princeton in that State at which Mr. Hoffman, to Off
cae chief speaker During the progress Of the affair II
was agreed that Mr. Beh should speak in behalf of the
democratic Germans in reply to Mr. Hoffman,. The day
came and did the speakers and Mr.. H. went through
with his performance but just before the close the mama
gers were 90 to Mr. Bieh and communicate pri
vaely with him. when he az and left the stand
being asked the reason for this he said he had been
qesed to leave that was republican meeting, and not
suited a democratic speech This coming to the cogni-
vance of the Germans they nearly all left the meeting and
proceeded organize another one where Mr. Beh made
capital speech after which series Of resolutions were
adopted strongly endorsing the democratic nominees This
was a settler on the republicans in that quarter.

CITY CIlnrter Bis1ntlers.

IT appears that the nexcusable blunders and omis-
sons in the City Charter the fruit of the careless
ness of Enrolling Clerks of renissness the part of
Enrolling Committees, and of failure in the Governor
to examine the enrolled bill carefully before he af
fixed his official signature to it. Neither the Secre-
tary Of State the public printer at all ban1a
BILE.
The editor of the Baton Rouge Sugar Planter, in
his paper of the 26th states that he has taken the
pains to examine the original BILL as it was engrossed
and it passed the House and Senate. He found no
such omissions and incongities as have been pointed
out; and says that the 10th section is complete and
concludes as follows
shall ordinance resolution which shall eoe
sRSfs aS
money or income Or laying Of any isS Or
may propose amendments as in resolutions ordnances
The Goth section is entirely omitted in the official
publication. The editor Of the Sugar Planter has
also found that section in the original bill as is filed
among the papers of the House of Representatives.

singular question here arises. Is an act the
Legislature did not pass binding upon the community
because the Governor and others signed it without
knowledge Of its defects? We do not pretend to
sufficient legal knowledge to decide. Its a well
settled principle that errors of omission are as repre-
hensble as errors ofcommssion Suppose forinstance
that the Enrolling Clerk had changed every material
feature of the bill to suit his own ends that the
Chairman Of the Enrolling Committee, (as was proba-
bly, the case with the charter BILL without examine
ton reported it to the House as correctly enrolled
that the Speaker signed it and caused it to be sent to
the President of the Senate that he signed it and
that thence it was conveyed to the Governor, who
alsosigned itwould this multiplicity of signatures
render forged and fraudulent bill law Of the com
monwealth?
The question is a delicate one, and all We have to
say is, Heaven help us through our difficulties. FL
