THE "TIMEs" FOR 1855.

A press of other business has prevented
the issral of prospectus for 1856, but we
do not know tfat it makes much difference
A copy Of the paper is the best prospectus
and we ask every subscriber we have &c
take this number in his hand, show it &c
his neighbors, and ask them TO join him IL
taking it this year. We hope they will dc
this, and do it at once. We would cheer
fully do as small favor for them, and have
no doubt they will comply with our request.
Recollect. this year will be stirring
year. The Presidential election comes OIL
in which every one feels an interest-and ii
will be one Of the most exciting and inter-
esting elections that has ever taken place in
the United States.
Then we have Governor, State officers,
Congressman and members of the Legisla-
ture, and County officers 10 elect in our own
State. The next Legislature will have two
United States Senators to elect and our
county elections will be highly interesting
on this account.
Will our friends aid US in extending the
circulation Of The Times? We desire to
double IFS present extensive circulation, and
must do it.

Congress Third District.

A correspondent of the last Banner"
who writes over the signature of "Chari-
tom" calls upon the ''lion hearted democra-
cy of the Third District 10 shake of their
lethargy, and hurl from the national coun.
ellis all such Know Nothing demagogues as
JAMES j. LINpLEy," and put Gen. JouN
B. CLARK in his place! He recapitulates
the Generals Military achievements.in the
Black Hawk and Mormon wars, and enlar-
ges upon his civil, legal and political quail
fications in style that must amuse even the
vain General himself. 1.-THE democracy arc
satisfied with the General for a standard
bearer, we are more than satisfied To have
him as an opponent. He can be beat iust
as easy as any aspirapt we know-and {
little easier than some.

The AMERICAN CAUSE AND AMERICAN
WoMrN.-A lady correspondent, while ex-
pressing her sentiments upon the subject Of
Americanism, says:
In times of yore, "Spartan mothers"
strove 10 inspire their sons with an I'M
quenchable spirit Of patriotism. Once our
puritan mothers" glOried in imparting to
their children the true principles of free
dom Liberty and Justice. And shall we,
American women, consent 10 forget their
noble examples, and let the love of our
country, whose borders have been baptised
with the precious blood OF our forerathers,
and tears of our Puritan mothers, become
blotted out from existence in our hearts?-
No! ] believe that true principles, and a
spirit of patriotism, and love ofliberty, are
advocated by the American Party and Press,
which is 10 make us know and feel as if we
lived in a country wholly and rightfully orr
own to protect own TO govern. May
God bless the Party styled American, and
may success ever attend il. until il is known
and rules, from the Atlantic shores TO
broad Pacifc's blue waters.

More Kansas Troubles.

The citizens of Leavenworth City have
recently had some troubles in their midst.
The day the election took place on the To.
peka Constitution, a mob destroyed the bal
lot box, broke up the election, and one man,
a clerk Of the election, was badly beaten.
On the evening of the 22d, large con-
course Of persons proceeded 10 the Office of
the Territorial Register" took possession
of the press and materials, and threw them
into the river. No resistance was offered
by the owners of the press or their friends.
We have seen no published account of the
affair, but learn that The editors gave ofIense
10 persons who turned ont in the recent out
break in that Territory. We presume an
account of The affair will be published, when
it will be aseertained who is in fault
meantime, all good citizens deplore such a
state Of affairs.

FA Correspondent Of the Missouri De-
mocrat, writing from Washington, says Col.
Benton will be on the stump in this State,
next summer, in behalf of the Pacific Rail-
road, and other matters, including a seat in
the Senate. We hope lie will come, and do
all he can for the Road, and kill as many
"-ottens," as the dog-days will admit of be-
ing slams: We win lend hand in these
jobs, and then take different route. Let
the antics look out, for the "old man" will

A New Years Jokel

The "Platte Argus" of the 9TH, contains
"by authority editorial, formally with
drawing Hon. b. X. Artnisoa from the
canvass for United States Senator, and an
nOuncing that he will not be a candidate for
any Office; also thanking his democratic and
and wing friends FOR their support If the
article had appeared in any other paper, I'VE
should have at once come 10 the conclusion
that the writer was poking fun at the
bourbon imbibater;" but the Argus Us in
earnest, and actually withdraws the ex-
Senator, with solemnity that is amusing
We have heard of blocking the stable after
the horse was stolen, and counting chick
ems before they were hatched," but with
drawing "dead cock from the pit" with
such flourish as the "Argus" makes, can
only be looked upon as a first rate ioke

Cash VS., Credit.

Credit is growing very unpopular with
our business men,and there is general dis
position 10 bring business 10 a Cash Basis.
We think this effort ought to be encouraged
by dealers, as the advantages 10 be derived
from a cash business, are mutual between
buver and seller. The merchant who goes
into the market with cash, can buy his stock
cheaper than if he is compelled 10 ask four,
six or nine months credit; and he can afford
TO sell them cheaper for cash, than on six
or twelve months credit. I requires more
capitol than most of our business men choose
to invest, 10 do twelve months credit bust
ness, and when ii is mani(estly to the in
terest of all, that business should be done
on a Cash Basis, buyers ough 10 second the
effort OF merchants in making the change.

Presidents Message.

On the 3lst December, President PrEnoE
sent in his Annual Message TO Congress,
notwithstanding the unorganized state Of the
House of Representatives. The following
is the opening paragraph Of the Message,
which explains the reasons for laying it be-
fore Congress and the country
The constitution of the United States
provides that Congress shall assemble annu-
ally on the first Monday Of December, and
it has been usual for the President to make
no communication of public character TO
the Senate and House of Representative
until advised Of their readiness 10 receive
it. l have deferred this usage until the
close of the first month of the session, but
my convictions of duty will not PERM. me
longer to postpone he discharge Of the OBJ.
legation enjoined by the constitution upon
the President, "to give to the Congress in
formation of the state Of the Union, and re-
commend to their consideration such meas
ures as he shall judge necessary and expe-
dent
The Senate received the message, and or
dered it printed. The House refused to
hear it read, and it was laid on the table,
after an angry debate. The President took
Congress by surprise, and his action is Sc
verely censured by many, while others de-
fend 1t.
The Message is a. pretty lengthy docu-
ment, and is indifferently received, SO far
we have seen an expression of public senti-
ment. We win publish it next week-or
at least the most important parts, when our
readers will be better prepared to appreciate
remarks upon it.

Governor.

A correspondent of the Banner" wri-
ting over the signature Ct "North-west,' p
recommends w. H. BURLINGTON, Esq,
present Auditor of The State, as a candi-
date for Governor, at the ensuing August
election.
Aspirants are making an early start for
the August prizes; and many of them would
do well to reflect that it is recorded, '.the
first shall be last and the last first" Haste
in startingis no guarantee of success, for
the "race is not TO the swift" but the cum
ning-in politics.

The Democracy,

Adjourned their meeting again, from
Monday last, to the first Monday in March.
There must be screw loose IN Old How
ard, and if we can escape the charge of Of
ficiousness, we will point il out. The rank
and file do not like their leaders, and hence
their failure to respond to the calls. Two
or more, who aspire 10 the leadership, had
not got warm in their democratic clothes,
before they forsook the party and joined
the Americans. They then left the Ameri-
cans and went back to the democratic party,
and are not content to go in the ranks, but
want 10 command. This, the rank and file,
who have never wavered, WON'T stand-an
who can blame them? Then, some of the
told wheel horses" have been worshipping
strange Gods, and they have lost caste with
those who have been constant to their first
and only love-and it is not to be wondered
The once powerful democracy balks when
called upon by such men.
