JAMES BUCHANAN AT HoME-lt is made plain
by the news from Pennsylvania, given elsewhere.
that the Buchanan democracy have been beaten
in Mr.. Buchanan's own town by four to five hun
dred majority, and in the county by three to
-four thousand. This shows wonderful want Of
popularity in the nominee Of tho border rufian
democracy. The people Of Lancaster county
and towns arc respectable and intelligent; men
Of logical minds and reasoning habits They
have known Mr.. Buchanan for thirty or forty
years; and with all their knowledge Of him. both
pcrsonal and political they now declare solemn
ly at the polls thst he is not their choice. This
Is most singular fact; II indicates that Mr.. Blu
chansn has in his own State and his owa neigh
bolhood no personal or political popularity.
What can be the reason Of this Mr.. Buchanan
is generally considered to be gentleman Of un-
improbable character, a statesman Of fair at
tainmcnts, and a man who has discharged with
the utmost fidelity all his duties to his species,
save one that Of becoming husband and a Ia
Their. We are driven to the conclusion that Mr.
buchanan docs not enjoy the good will OF the
people Of Lancaster, simply from The same rea-
son which has kept him bachelor-his utter
want Of human sympathy; he has made no friends
for the same reason that he has had no wife and
10 children TO cheer his old age. This is no
doubt the cause Of bis conicmptuous rejection by
tho people OF Lancaster; il will operate else
where a. well

SENATOR WILSON on New York PoLUIcs.-
The distinguished Senator from Massachusetts,,
Mr.. Wilson. in his stumping pilgrimage to this
and other States, has sometimes expressed optn
ions on New York politics which are not strictly
parliamentary or logical. During his recent
visit here. he was, we understand, profuse In biz
disapprobation OF the course OF the NEW YORK
HERALD, In consequence OF our opposition to
John A. King, as the so-called republican candi-
date for Governor. Senator Wilson would be
much more credtably and proftably engaged
were he to attend TO the affairs Of his own State
and the general canvass, instead of expressing
ignorant and impertincnt opinions on the course
Of this journal. The nomination Of John a.
King, under the malign influence Of Jburloy
Weed, was ono Of the most serious mistakes yet
made by the supporters Of Fremont. The un-
popularity Of King, Of all connected with the
Kings, of the blood Of the Kings, among the
democracy Of this State, has been too well known
10 be questioned or doubted by any one. The
very name OF King coupled with the silly and
ridiculous speech he made at his nomination.
would have been sufficient 20 distract thousands
oil oiu ucmOcrats WHO WcIc IhNorhDic W Iic"ohs'
but who never could have swallowed King, in
any company whatever. Hence, on seeing the
extreme blundcr Of the republicans, committed
under tho malign influence Of Thurlow Weed, and
the insult offered TO two Of the principal editors
Of this city, who we're more instrumental in
laboring for the success Of Fremont than all the
Stewards and Weeds and their friends combined.
VIC saw at once the necessity OF separating the
unpopular, silly and foolish nomination Of John
A. King from the popular and powerful candi-
date presented in the person Of Col. Fremont.
We are more and more convinced OF the pro-
priety Of our policy, and that opposition to King
ard some other ridiculous nominations made by
the same party in this city. is the only true course
to be pursued by thosc who really wish 10 see
Fremont elected 10 the Presidency.

The SITUATION IN NAPIEs.-The Emperor Of
Russia has fled protest against the interference
Of France and England in the affairs of Naples.
The ground taken is simply that the maritime
powers have no more right to mix in the politics
of Italy than Russia had to mix in the affairs OF
Turkey. There is one difference between the two
cases. No one charges France OF England with
designs Of territorial aggrandizement in Italy
while Russia unequivocally aimed at cutting fur
ther slices from Turkey when the late war broke
out. Setting aside this point, the argument OF
the Russian State department appears to be
strictly logical; and fair case made out against
the courts of England and France.
II seems quite likely, however, that the trouble
which every one foresees must arise from this
Neapolitan question will break out between Eng
land and France rather than between Russia and
the maritime Powers. Reduced to plain words,
the dispute between the latter and Naples turns
on the right of the King Of Naples to exercise an
absolute tyrannical sway over his subjects. the
maritime Powers holding the negative Of the
question. Now it may be well enough for France
to begin negotiation on this footing, and allow
moment Russia or Austria interferes to compel q
full and open discussion of the subject it will
be impossible for the Emperor Of the French to
Justify his sending an expedition to Naples to
prevent King Bomba doing there the very thing
Louis Napoleon is doing at home. The moment
things reach this point separation from England
becomes q necessity; indeed the chances are
that the French Emperor will no. wait SO long
to draw OF from bis late ally. There arc many
signs in the horizon which look like an Anglo
French war. Both armies have rclapscd into
peace, hating each other more iercely than ever.
Statesmen In each country accuse the neigbboring
court Of undue influence, unfair appropriation OF
glory. The English know that the late peace
was concluded to suit the French. Louis Napo-
leon knows that without q war, France will b.
bankrupt in less than twelve months. The fu-
tme looks very gloomy indeed.

Pryor, OF THE RICHMOND ENQUIRER, Demo-
IlsHED.-The public will find in another column
aremarkable demolition Of the fighting editor Of
the Richmond Enquirer, Mr.. Roger A. Pryor, by
the Hon. John M. Bolts, Of Virginia. 1t will be
remembered that ever since John NJ. Bolts had the
courage and the manliness to oppose the wild
fanaticism Of Governor Wise and the Southern
disunionists, the Richmond Enquirer has abused
him with malignity without example. With re-
markable good sense and good taste, Mr.. Bolts
never noticed the rawlings Of his assailant, and
let the Enquirer cali him oil the coarse names in
the dictionary without once affecting to know Of
its existence. His son, however, a young man Of
more choler than judgment, challenged Pryor
and, though so i'll as hardly to be able to stand
up, would probably have punished him for his
insolence, but for the interference Of the police
set on, no doubt, by some friend Of the editor of
The Eia7aiyG The next step in this affair was
wonderful to relate, challenge from Pryor to
Botts
The only ground for challenge was, of course,
that Bolts had insulted Pryor by taking no no
iicc of the scurrilous trash the latter published
uUOut DUNE ulS pdpcI. We COnSldtuAuec ~
ciety on the reply of Mr.. Bolts. Had that gen.
tlcman consented to indulge Mr.. Pryor with a
shot, it would have become a settled doctrine in
Virginia, at least, that if person who was at
tackled in the press made no reply, be was liable
TO a challenge from the editor whom he thus con-
temned. We forbcar from following out the
consequences Of this doctrine. Hitherto, it has
been considered hard enough for man to be at
tackled by newspaper, and denied reply in
the same columns; but what will the public say
If we can not only pitch into whomsocver we
please, but shoot any body who declines to reply
These Southern democrats are giving us new
code of ethics with a vengeance.
