As sufficient answer TO all the nonsense
which is being circulated by some Of the news
papers in this State, in relation to the choice Of
pursuance of sectional purposes, we copy the
following from that able and stauneh old Whig
journal, the Philadelphia North american and D.
S. Gdzette. 1t proves that the present course Of
the Administration was approved in advance
by sensible men of opposite political views:
We published few days since the bids OF va
rious parties Tor the contract 10 carry the ma Is
between California aid the West by the over
laad route. These BIDS were offered in compll-
ance with Official advertisement under the act
passed by the last Congress making an appro-
priatlOn 10 establish aud carry al this mail line.
| Our in OrmatiOn was obtained from the Wash
ihgton UlIon, Which is the otic al organ OF the
Administrator. Hence the iacts are authentic,
aid the matter is Mt length Assuming that prac-
teal shape which the country has for years past
so earnestly desired The parties who have
girea ia theT proposals seem ~ be substan tiai
ani reliable, aud no doubt, whichever may b.
the successful competitor, the work will be
thoroughly done. Nothiag now renains hui
Tor the Post Office Department TO make its d.
cisol. To thai the country is looking with
much anxIe!y, as great Interests are AT stake,
a ID t VII pend very much on that determi-
nation whether the road shall be as fully useful
to all parts If tue counGry. as it was originally
design,d, OF be reduced 10 a mere comparative
Ienctt. l.tf f.E
Whatever the decision may be we rejoice that
! the washes of the national Administration have
heen already expressed broadly in the Official
organ, in la\ or of the great central route west
ward llUm ST. Louis, along the Missouri river,
to the iroatier of Kansas, and westward through
the latter territory, to New Mex CO. across the
! plains and there's overland to Cal aliUrdia hy the
| G la ronte. We would have preferred the Ii c
lay the South Pass of the Rocky Mountains and
the Salt Lake. Bat VIZ are aware that the state
of REBEL OIL existing in Utah. and lh4 preda-
tions constantly practised by the Normons
would render that route very unsafe for valuable
mails and equally so for emigrants Until that
trouble can he overcome the route is impract-
cable and must he abandoned. That it will
eventually be- the grand main line Of travel he
tween the East and West coasts. we think ind g.
patahlr. But at present the one we have ind

DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPous.-A good deal OF
sensation has been created in political circles
at Washington, by the publication of tables
showing the present distribution of the Federal
patronage. From these :ahes it appears that
the 'spoils" are now distributed so as to give
to the States which voted against Mr.. Buchanan
nearly Sl25,0OO more patronage tha those
which supported him; and that the North re-
c"ives nearly 5000 900 more spos than the
South. The State which receives the most is
New York. which gets 81 ,033 956; next comes
California. which receives S489 ,l89; then Penn
sylvan n. S444.939; then the District Of Colusn
ba, S4O9 $40. Massachusetts, receives $37l, ,79i
being SlZ00O0 more than Virginia. which gel,
$252.o9l. Ohio has Sll6l34. while Georgia
has only $85,207. New Hampshire gets Sl08,
200, while North Carol ma gets only 5000
Assuming that F,dral Patronage should be
divided among the States according 10 repre-
sentatlon, the following get less Than tneiI

Position IN sleeping.

Il is better to 90 to sleep on the right side.
for then the stomach Is very much IN the posi-
tiOn Of bottle turned upside down, and the
coutents are aided in passing out by graylta-
tion. II one goes to sleep on the lett side, the
operation of emptying tie stomach Of its cou-
tents is like drawing water from awell. After
going to slcsp, let the body take its own posi-
t;oa. II you sleep on your back, especially
soon after heavy meal, the weight of the di-
gestive organs, and that OF the food, resting on
the great vein of the body, near the back DO, Z,
congresses II, aud arrests the flow Of the blood
more or less. 1t the arrest is partial, the sleep
is disturbed, and there are unpleasant dreams.
Ii the meal has been recent aud hearty, the ar
rest is more dec .ded. and the various sensations,
such as falling over prtcpiee, or the pursuit
OF q wild beast, or other impending danger,
and the desperate effort to get rid of il, arouses
us, aud sends ou the stagnaling blood; aud we
wake iu fright or trembling, or preparation,
or feeling of exhaustion, according to the de-
gree of stagnatiou, aud the length and strength
of the effort made to escape the danger, Bu
when we are not able to escape the danger
when we do fall over the prec pce, when tht

frequent cause of death to those who have
gone to bed to wake no more, we give merely
as a lrNata opinion. The os bill ty Of its
truth is enough to deter any rational man from
q late and hearty meal. This we do know
with certanty-that waking up in the night
with painful diarrhna or choleoa, or bilious
cholc, ending in death in very short time
is properly tractabe to a late large meal. The
truly wise will take the safer SIDE. For persons
who eat three times day. it is amply sufficient

PARTIzAN HIsToRY-A king of France, after
battle III which he was ulded. call his
generals to his bedside, TO hear what had occurr-
ed after he had left the field; aud as no two
could agree in any one statement, the king,
struck with the dihhculty, exclaimed: "What
then is historyW "Gire me my liar" said
Charles ", when he called for a volume of his
tory; and certainly no one cal attentively ex-
anime any one important period Of our annals
without remarking that almost etery incident
admits of two handles. almost every character
OF two interpretations; also. that by judicious
pack ng of facts the historian may make his
picture assume nearly what form he pleases,
without any direct violation of truth.
But history does teen with fashoods and per-
versions. Take two instances In the history of
England, as now taught in our schools. We are
positively told that Joan of Arc was burnt by
the English at Rouen in l43l; when it has been
incontrovertably established, by ancient ar
chives of that city, that oil the first Of August,
l439. the council Of the city of Rouen made her
gift of 2l0 livres, for services rendered by her
at the siege OF the said city. So that the burn-
ing of Joan is myth, invented by the French
to blacken the English character, and transfer-
red to our history as a fact by those authors who
too credulously relied on French chroniclers.
Again, Richard Ill has been held up to uni
versal exrcratOn as a crooked-backed monster;
whereas Stow whp was born forty years after
Richards death. and had coaversed with many
who had seen the king. declares that he could
find no such deformiiy in King Richard ILL.,. as
his hisorians commonly relate; on the contrary,
he was OF bodily shape comely enough, only Of
low stature" In fact all modern research has
proved that Richard was neither that deformed
person nor that monster of cruelty and impieiy
which he has been represented by our so calld
historians No character in English history has
been more m'srepresented; and could the shade
OF the last Plaatagenet rise from its grave. it
would blush to find the name of II 'chard ILL., in
the same book as those of the Stewarts and
George w. Bnt success often lays the founda-
tion Of good reputation with postcrity.

For some hours during the early part Of Sat

noticed them particularly.
About half past six O'Clock yesterday after
