A Limited Monarchy.

The o. S. Journal says, we see il
stated in the eastern papers. that a men,
Der Of Gen. Pierce's cabinet has declared
that, this Government should become a
Limited Monarchy. Who is he Let US
hear his name.
That things are fast tending to this
conclusion under the lead of the Slave
Democracy, intelligent and patriotic
men Of all parties have for some time
seen. The popular viii is every where
derided. The events in Kansas show
that the contempt of the vote of the
Majority, and the defiance bid to the
power of the Supreme Court in Wiscon-
sin in the Governor election case, is
proof.
Another sign more potent still. is tie
claim now. for the FIRST time since the
foundation of this government, set up by
the Senate of the U. s.. the aristocratic
branch oil this government, and the I'M
mediate ally of the Executive, of the
right, to originate money bills. That
the right to do this belongs entirely to
the House of Representatives is now
questioned for the first time in sixty-seven
years. And this project has been car
ried out by the bill appropriating three
millions of dollars for increasing NUM-
tions of war, and manufacturing and
altering small arms. And this is con-
sidered a war appropriation, and is
placed at the sole disposal of the Presi-
dent.
Let the people remember the decla-
ration that this Government should become
Lin ted Monarchy, and watch the prog
ress of events.

ings Of all College Faculties, dismissed,
as reereant to the pledges given in their
own act Of naturalization.
As to the representations given. Of the
moral character of the population of the
village of Bethany and its vincinity in
the aggregate, it is as false a picture as I
have ever seen given of any place known
to me in all my experience. The county
Of Brooke, and the vicinity of Bethany
College, to say no more, are as moral
and virtuous as any community known
10 MI in the wide horizon Of my per.
sonal experience and acquaintance
Strange that FIVE or six weeks residence,
these young men should have acquired
so much more knowledge of this com
munitY than those who have lived here
more than forty years. and more than
the graduates of this college, now scat.
tered over the Western and Southern
States +; amongst all of which. we hazard
nothing in affirming, that they cannot
produce n corroborative voice out Of
Indiana.
VIII those newspapers in Indiana,
Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, and in
Great Britain, &C., &C., do us the JUS
tice of laying these statements before their
readers, as they have already ~impugned
the Faculty Of this college by giving to
them the statements of its excluded stu
dents We have always, in an editor
ship of thirty-four years, when desired,
given both sides, and very generally OF
our own accord, whether requested or
not.
We have on file a valuable article from
the New York Observer, in reference to
this affair. 1t is ably written, and goes
to show that had Mr.. Burns preached on
the occasion as he ought 10 have done,
nothing unpleasant could have happened.
1t shall appear next month. A. G.
The above extracts, we believe, COM
prise all the facts of the case, as given
in Mr.. Campbell's last article.
The whole matter seems TO lie in a
nut she'll. The students demanded the
right of free speech, on the question of
slavery. Mr.. Campbell thinks that de-
mand unreasonable. Any opinions, how
wei correct, if expressed in an offensive
manner, or in improper time or place,
had better be left unsaid ; but if the
students did not err in these particulars,
they certainly had the same right to hold
their opinions, and to express them, as
Mr.. Campbell or any other man. We
have small reverence for slavery either
practically, or in the abstract, and do
not deem it Too sacred a subjectto be de-
bated at any time or any place, notwith-
standing the array Of the texts quoted
above. When we can see a verse from
the Bible, which commands or authorizes
one mar to hold another in slavery, then,
and not till then, will we admit it is sane
toned by Holy Writ. The students may
have been in the wrong, and we have no
intention to say n word against Beth
any College. On the contrary, we wish
ii abundant success. But we do say,
without fear of contradiction, that there
is not a college, academy, orschOol house
in any of the free states, where a student
from a slave state may not express any
opinion in favor of slavery, he may
choose, freely, without being in danger
of being ducked or mobbed, or even dis
missed from the institution.

The Proposed Tax-Law.

We were in error, last week in stating
that the taxes were payable semi-annu-
ally, in all cases. The provisions Of
the bill, left it optional with the tax pay
er, whether he paid his quota in one pay
merit as heretofore, or semi annually.
We have no idea that the bill will be-
com a law, at all events, not without
amendments.

Rarnum as a Rankrnpt.

P. T. Barnum, having failed some
weeks since, he was brought before the
Commissioner of Insolvents, and made &
statement of the situation of his fnancia
affairs. OF that statement the Cleveland
Herald speaks as follows:
Barnum is now in the hands of the
law, and under the solemnity of an oath
is obliged to disclose even where the
money comes from with which he buy:
his daily bread. This examination shows
how greatly n mans wealth may be
overrated. According to Barnum's OWL
estimate he was once worth some $780,
600, yet the details of his property, AM
its membranes, prove coDclusIvely to
any uninflated mind that he was far from
being rich-in fact his death would have
demonstrated that his wealth, like his
life, was a humbug. It's amusing how,
in his financial dccease, he proves the
truth that the ruling passion is strong in
death, for, on this examination, he could
not forbear giving asuppliment to his book
by testifying that he sod his Museum
for S24, 900, it having cost him some
wears since but S12, 600, and he adds,
that his boosted addition to his curiosities
of the Philadelphia Chinese Museum was
merely a lease of those Curiosities at an
exhorbitant rent, and gives the finishing
touch as TO his Yankee shrewdncss in
selling his Museum, by stating that ''the
most profitable part of the Museum must
be broken up in n year"
The furniture at Iranislan wa sold
for merely $4,000, and even bis Piano
Forte was morgaged for all it is worth.
His assets show a regular museum OF GU
riosities consisting of worthless stock in
"a Hat Body manufacturing company in
France, in a Connecticut cutlery COM
pany, in the Jerome clock company,
CRYSTAL Palace stock, Fire Annihilator
stock and other bursted bubbles.
Barnum cannot go to Connecticut as
he says his creditors threaten to imprison
him. 1t appears from his W story
that he agreed to endorse for the Jerome
Clock Company, paper amounting to
500, 600. but signing his name in blank
he finds himself on paper to the amount
of 494, 600 and he does not know but
that it will show yet to be $1,000, 900.
Finally, Barnum says he lives in a hired
house in eighth street, and takes boarders,
that being his only means OF support
that his soa-in-law furnishes him with
meat and that he has friends who will mo-
let him starve this year anyhow, and
that he has received numerous letter:
from friends at a distance offering him
money.
