and 7th Wards a majority Of members whose
antecodents were Democratic
This view may strike both our friends and
enemies, at distance, as very singular, con-
sidering that the city Of Washington was
largely Why when the Wings and Democrats
were rival parties, but nevertheless 10 is true.
In the American ranks we recognise nos such
distinctions as Wing and Democrat; but in
the selection of candidates for the suffrages of
the American party, it has been deemed pro-
per, as far as practicable consistent with due
regard to qualifications, to take them equally
from these former rival parties. Butnot so
with the Fusionists in this city. The old line
Wigs claimed, and have enjoyed, the lions
share of the spoils, in the recent conglomera-
ton of parties here, and they seem content,
that the pseudo Democrats shall boast of the
Democratic triumph" achieved here on the
first Monday Of this month, whilst the " old
line Wings" get the "loaves and fishes"
The pseudo Democrats, however can well
afford to let the old-linc Wings have the few
crumbs from the municipal tables Of small
Corporation, if they will only aid the Forney-
ties, Pierceites and Buchananitcs, next No
vember, to get hold of the National Treasury !
We ask our friends throughout the country
to contradict the statements of the Washington
Union, claiming the recent election here as
Democratic triumph" That press cannot
deny the truth of the statements in this arti-
Gle. 1t knows them to be true and it knows
that its claim of a triumph for the pseudo
Democracy in that election was false claim
We repeat and we challenge the Union to
deny it, that the Mayor and coery member Of
the Board Of Aldermen aoho 0ere elected on
the first Monday Of this month, By the Fusion
lists are oLd-line Whigs!

Murder and Lunch Lam in Cali fornia


New ORLEANS, June 1.-THE steamship Daniel
Webster has arrived from San Juan 9Th inst, with
San Francisco dates to the 2lst ultimo. Her adj
vices are highly interesting.
Great excitement prevailed in San Francisco. A
man named Casey shot James King, of William,
editor Of the Bulletin, in the street. Casey was
promptly arrested and committed to Jail. This &C.
CURED on the 14th ultimo.
On the 10th Mr.. King died, and great excite
ment ensued. The old Vigilance Committee called
a meeting, and placards Of an infammatory nature
were posted about the city, calling on the citizens
to take the law into their own hands.
On Sunday, the 18th, three thousand citizens,
completely organized into divisions and companies,
and armed with muskets, marched by three streets
from the committee rooms, took possession of the
JAIL and from thence took Casey and the gambler
Cora, and carried them to the committee rooms,
where they remained closely guarded at the sailing
of the steamer.
II was supposed they would be hung.
The whole city was draped in mourning for the
death of Mr.. King, who was highly esteemed. He
was native of Georgetown, ID. @.
Casey was formerly an inmate of Sing Sing pris-
on, the statement Of which in Mr. Kings paper
caused the difficulty.
The vigilance committee was fully organized
throughout the State and was said to have S75 900
with which to carry their measures into effect.
All the gamblers we're to be driven from the
State. ~
The committee have plenty of arms and ammu-
milton. Their proceedings have been character
lied by the most perfect order and propriety
There is no other news Of Importance from Cal
ifornia

nearly two millions in specie.

ABUSING ONEs FRrEEDs.-The Philadelphia
Pennsylvania is continually abusing the Black
Republicans, even more loudly, if possible, than
IL ever has the American party, and yet persists
IN claiming Democratic triumph at the recent
election in this city, when it knows that DR.. Ma
gruder obtained his wonderful majority Of thirteen
votes by a fusion of the Democrats with the Black
Republicans. This is consistency with venge-
snce, and must make the new allies of the Loco
foeos feel remarkably pleasant. A similar fusion

Buchanan, and i seems to b. the game .whish the

Who is James Buchanan

"No one" says the New York Sun, twill
seriously ask, who is James Buchanan" This
is said with much JUNCTION and evident salts
faction. Well, it is pleasant is it not, Mr..
Sun, to have candidate for the Presidency at
last, Of whom somebody has heard something
before he was nominatedp But if it should
happen that any one should ask "Who is
James Buchanan" you can tell them at once
and without stopping to think aboutit "Why,
he is the man who abused Madison and the
war with England in Fourth of July grafton
in 1915, at round rate He is the man who
was such n rampant Federalist that he sol
emily declared, before God and man, that if
he thought he had single drop of Democratic
blood in his veins he would open them and let
itout. Heis the man who was four times elect
ed to Congress as a F6derdlist He is the man
who came to Mr.. Clay in 1926 and tried to
make bargain with him, or at least held out
tempting offer to him, namely, that he should
be Secretary of State, to vote for General Jack
son; and he is the man who led the General
to believe that Mr.. Clay and Mr. Adams had
made a corrupt bargain. He is the man who
heard this charge made, reiterated, and the
changes upon it rung all over the country for
fifteen or sixteen years, and yet, knowing it to
be false, never lcontradicted it.
He is the man who said to General Clinch
in 1874, that he could make those Dutchmen
in Pennsylvania believe that Mr.. Polk was a
better protectioe-tariff man than Mr. Clay !;
and he is the man who took the stump in
Pennsylvania in the fall of 1914, and, by
pledging the honor Of a gentleman to the
people of that State, that Mr. Polk was bet
ter Protectiue-tarif man than Mr. Clay, did
make them believe it, and vote for Mr.. Polk,
whereby they lost the tariff of 1912, and he
got the office of Secretary Of State, all of which
he knew beforehand would take place; and he
is the same man who said in speech, in the
Senate, that the best protection the neanvtac-
turers could haze aOas Low wAGEs-''bring
wages down to TEN CENTS A DAY, and they
would need no other protection"

chanan is?

June III, 1856.
NoTE.-Is it possible that our correspondent,
whom we know 70 be an intelligent Scotchman,
has not long known that all the pseudo Democrats
care about foreigners is to get their votese Does
he not know that the offices given to the foreign
ers by the President were given as bats Does
nc not know that DR.. Magruder is mere dema-
gogue2 Does he not know that he was pro-
fessed american few years ago, and has always
beer rampant Wing? Does he not know that he
is now trying to concate the American party |?
The reason assigned by Mayor Magruder for not
appointing foreigners to office, we learn, is, that
The Board Of Aldermen Mould not confirm, them I
This is a shallow pretext He knows better; for
every sensible man knows that the American men,
bers of that Board would sooner permit respect
able foreigner to be confirmed to Office than allow
renegade American to be confirmed
What right has Mayor Magruder to say to his
foreign friends that the Board of Aldermen would
not confirm them, if appointed by him? He GER
tainy can only know this by testing it. 1t is
duty he owes his foreign friends to prove the sin
cerity of his desire to favor them by testing the
Board of Aldermen. We have no authority to
speak even for the American members OF that
Board; but we have a right to say, that We would
Surself sooner see every Office in the city filed
With respectable foreigners, than with treacherous
renegade Americans.

Removal of Peter Little.

Among the many undignifed, ungentlemanly,
and disgraceful acts of w. B. Magruder, the sol
disant Mayor of Washington, the dismssion Of
Peter Little, about the Oldest resident of the city,
from the Office of Clerk of the Eastern Market,
stands pre-eminently conspicuous.
Mr.. Little was appointed to the Office of Clerk
of the Eastern Market under Mayor Smallwood,
about thirty-seven years ago, and from that time
to this he enjoyed the confidence of the various
Mayors who served from Smallwoods time to the
present. At the Eastern Market he has saved this
Corporation much expense. He has frequently
put repairs upon the Market at his own cost, and
never troubled the Councils for indemni6cation.
He did it willingly, freely. Magruder, however,
has at length discovered that the services of this
old gentleman, so long the faithful servant of the
Corporation, are no longer wanted, and he thus
addresses him:
MAYORS OFFICE,

Mr. Hamlin Leaving the Sinking Shin.


The most noteworthy occurrence of the week
Is the formal withdrawal of Senator Hamln, of
Maine, from the Democratic party.
Mr.. Hamln, on yesterday rose in the Senate
and desired to be excused from any further service
as chairman Of the Committee on Commerce; and
he made the request because his relations with
the majority of the Senate were to be such in the
future that he could no longer lold that position
with proprety.
He had opposed the repeal of the Missouri Com.
promise, uniformly and steadily.
But the thing was done in violation of the
principles of that party with whom he had always
acted, and in violation of the solemn pledges of
the President of the United States in his inaugural
message. He could very well see how Senators
could have voted for the Nebraska bill, under the
belief that no evil results would follow but how
Senators could now support that measure, with
the evils before their eyes which have resulted
from it, and which threaten the peace of the whole
country, was more than he could understand
Since however, the Cincinnati Convention had
endorsed this measure in its contamination and in
its results, he therefore felt it his duty to declare
that he could no longer maintain party associations
with any party that insisted upon such doctrines.
and that he could support no man for President
who avowed them. In the coming contest he
should labor for the defeat of the Democratic tick
ct"
Mr. Hamlin has served the Democratic party
with untring zeal aud acknowledged efficiency in
both Houses of Congress for many years. BY his
industry and gentlemanly demeanor he has secured
the respect of men of all parties, and of the coun-
try at large His loss to the Democratic party, at
this crisis in its fate, will be severely felt 1t fore
shadows the loss of Maine, that staunch old Demo
cratic State, by at least 10000 majority. So they
