Columbus, Dec. 8, 1856.
Dear Sir-The proposed Abridgment of the
Debates of Congress, by Colonel Benton, com
mends Itself to the favor Of all Americans. The
work itself is most important. II will place with
in the reach Of thousands otherwise inaccessible
treasures Of historical knowledge. It will make
audible to the present generation the discussions
Of the past-deeply interesting, themselves but
even more interesting as exhibiting the begin
nings Of great traces Of events, the procession of
which is yet passing before our eyes And no man
is so ell fitted for this work the distinguished
statesman who has undertaken it, Hislarge ex.

A New DoDGE.-A foreign journal re-
lates the following, which took place at the
Fair Of Breaute (5eine Interviewer A
gentleman sauntering about with gold
headed cane in his hand was stopped by a
wretched looking man, who dragged himself
along on cructhes, and implored charity
The gentleman gave the heggar piece oil
silver. ~ How can you be 50 foolish = cried
man standing by; "that fellow is an I'M
postor, and no more lame thnn you are
Just lend me your cane minute, AMI VIII
convince you of the truth of what say.
The gentleman mechanically let the man
take the cane, and the beggnr throwing
down the crutches, ran on rs fast ms he
could The other amidst roars of laughter
from the bystanlcrs, ran after him, menac-
ing him with cane; aud 50 they ran con-
siderable distance, when they turned aside
into the town, and were seen no more The
Gentleman waited for some time expecting to
see the man return with the cane; 1t wns
then clear that the whole scene had been
an affair concerted between pair OF adroit
rogues.

PooR ENoUGH. The San Francisco Morn
ing CaH says :" Two communications were
received by the Board Of Supervisors yestcr-
day, from gentlemen who absolutely refuse
to deliver goods to the city unless they re-
ccved the cash in hand d. 5. Lord & Co., +,
gave as II reason why they refused to trust
the city twelve dollars worth Of stationary,
that they had already credited the city, and
when they wished to get their claims regis
tered for payment, they were told they
would have to wait five years for their mon
ey. Slns Fuller, coal merchant, refused to
furnish conl on the same grounds. Their
communications were received and placed
on file "Alas, poor city," Instead Of be-
ing the guardian Of pnupers, it has become
n mendicant itself; kicked and cutied from
door to door, like spendthrift who has ex
hausted his means and friends.

than mere "Man worship" to bring into ex'
istence q powerful political party. Doc
trincs must be embodied before they can
excite strong public feeling. The oppOsi-
ton failed in this, and the Fillmore men"
"slept with their forefathers"-the Wings
and Know-Nothings.
A late announcement in the opposition
press, informs US that movements are now
on foot to form new party, ont OF the bro
ken and dismembercd fragments of the late
Fillmore and Republican organizations-and
as the announcement reads--'thc better
portion Of tho Democratic party" Having
once been successful in catching TIC multi
tudc with the most unmeanng badge and
insignificant name, they fancy they can do
so again, aud notwithstanding the deception
they have practiced and the overwhelming
defeat they experienced, they now wish to
come back upon the people like thief from
transportation, under an alias of legitimacy.
No matter what name they may adopt, they
are the same men, the same politicians with
horns and tails who deceived the public with
metaphysical distractions, and the Fee, Fnw
FUN Of the Ki-Yies and Republicans. The
public will, doubtless, thank them for this
early notice of their patriotic intentions,
and will, we presume, endeavor, like Bas.
sanio in the play, to turn from the spccious
caskets which contains only the Deaths
Head, and the FOOLS Head, and fix their
choice on the plain leaden chest which con

SPIRITUALisM.-Thc Sacramento TniOn'S
Bay correspondent, writing under the date
of Jan 2Sth, says;
a gcnteclly dressed lady called Mt the
Police Office yesterday, and requested that
an officer should accompany her home, say
ing that her house was filled with evil spir-
its-thnt they had taken possession Of the
place and driven her cut. The spirits, shc
stated, were constantly coming up through
the floors and grinnng at her from out the
walls; they had even threatened her with
bodily injury, and she was afraid to 20 home.
Her entreaties were 80 strong that II police
othccr should accompany her home, that
finally to paciy her. officer Dexter promised
to call ut her residence and exercise the
spirits. AT her house, in Brooklyn Place,
everything was quiet and in good order. -
The neghbors, however, informud him that
the lady had been for long time laboring
under n mental hallucination on the subject
Of sprtualism."

NEGRO TESTIMONY. .--On Tuesday last, in
case before the Police Judge of San Fran
cisco, n negro was introduced as witness
against Mexican, to which the defendant
objected. Col James read from the statute
to prove that the law of 1850, which dis
qualified negro or an Indian from testify
ing against white man, had been repealed
by an amendment to the same act, passed in
1850 lie also read the act amended
and approved April l8, 1855. BY the latter
it appears that the person injured appear
ing as n prosecutor, no matter what his color
may be, is entitled and qualified to be wit
ness in the case The Judge reserved his
opinion in the matter, but will decide on the
point when occasion may require.
