PosT OFFICE RoBBERIEs.-There ap.
pears at different periods epidemics in
peculiar species Of crimes. Post Office
depredations seem now-at least in this
State-the prevailing crime. We under
stand that eighteen indictments were
found at the last term Of the u. S. Circuit
Court for offences in this State against
the Post Office laws. Oaly one case was
tried, and that was the charge against
DOMINIC ECKERT. Post Master at Jasper,
in the adjoining county Of Dubois, who
was arraigned for purloining letter from
his Office with draft for SAL, on which
he forged an endorsement and passed it.
The testimony was SD conclusive that he
plead guilty, and was sentenced to two
years. hard labor in the penitentiary. lie
had previously sustained respectable
character, and Judge HUNTINGTON, in
passing sentence, made some elcquen,
and pertinent remarks upon the decline
of official integrity, and the terrible con.
sequences to the offender in forgetting
the stern principles OF rectitude and yield
ing to the temptations of avarice.

"a Five negroes are under sentence oil
death fer killing two different oversccrs OH
plantations near Natchcz Mississippi. In one
murder in May last, three were engaged
They entered the room where the overseer
was sleeping, aud beat him to death. They
then carried the body to the woods, and
placed il at the root Of beech tree, throwing
on the ground near the spot the dead mans
gun and shot pouch. They also saddled his
horse, led him to the spot, rode him over the
corpse several times and then turned him
loose, to create the impression that the muir
dered man while hunting had been thrown
and killed by the horse. They finally made
voluntary confession. The other two way
laid the overseer on another plantation in
the same neighborhood in june last, and us
he was returning home from visit on q

pulled him from his horse, beat his brains

Of scales, in pond. Here it was discovered,
and clues obtained to the murderers, who
have just been sentenced to be hung.

MOBILE now ships annually 100000
bales Of cotton. The merchant who made
the first shipment from that port is now
living and in active business. The FIRST
vessel he loaded with cotton was a brig
of 1900 bales capacity. and after detain-
ing her nearly three months at Mobile to
complete her cargo, the whole amount he
could collect was only 400 bales. and he
was obliged to send to New Orleans to
get 400 bales to fill her up. Facts like
these illustrate in a striking manner the
progress of the country.

sB About year since, drafts to large
amount were put afoar in several Western
cities, drawn by VIM. b. Brock, private
banker at Rochester, New York, on the Corn
Exchange Bank of New York city. Several
parties were engaged in the operation, and
the drafts were sold on the same day in the
various cities, and of course were never paid.
st. Louis, Chicago and Milwaukee bankers
suffered to the amount Of some $4,000.
Several Of the parties were arrested for swim
ding, but the one who it was supposed was
the custodian CT the avails, Thos. C. Gil
man, of Rochester, New York, made his way
to Europe. Week before last he returned,
and as We learn from the Rochester Union,
was arrested on a warrant as fugitive from
justice in Missouri.

@ Mexico appears to be approaching

impending, and the restoration Of Santa

from inherent weakness. The Treasury
is empty, and the most strenuous efforts

MARINE HosPITALs.-In the retrench-
ment reforms which Secretary COBB
contemplates, an effort will be made to
close very many Of the Marine hos
pitfalls, which are found to be the coca
sion Of very heavy and useless expendi-
lures. Most of them have been built for
the purpose Of distributing the public ex.
penditures over all parts OF the country
where any plausible pretence could be
shown for making public disburse-
ment. Many Of the Marine hospitals, il
is said at Washington. have not during
the year as many patients as federal Off.
GERS attached to them. These latter
draw high salaries from the treasury
without giving the sli ;htest approximate
return for them. Is there not some fear
that our Institution may come under
the hand Of reform, and the supplies from
two or three public teats be cut Oft? II
is said "retrenchment and reform" will
be demanded in every branch of the gov
eminent. But the people have learn
from past experience that there are "de
mands" that are not always executed.

BURGLARY.--Ther residence Of CuAs.
BABcocK, Esq, was entered on Saturday
night by burglars, who show as much
boldness as skill in their operations. On
the evening previous there had been a
family party and the rooms more exposed
to view from the streets than usual, with
the family plate upon the tables, and seen
perhaps by the thieves, they were tempt
ed by the sight to get possession Of it.
On the family's retiring, the house was
closed with unusual care, and the valua-
bles carried I'D to Mr.. BIS sleeping apart
ment. During the night Mrs. b. saw a
figure glide stealthily into the room, and
on speaking to her husband, it vanished
Its appearance and disappearance was SO
sudden and noiseless that both thought
it could be but creature Of the brain in
slumbers disturbed by the strong coffee
and excitements Of the evening, and
therefore turned to sounder sleep and let
1t escape. In the morning, several Of the
outer doors and windows, which had the
night before been SO securely fastened
were found wide open, and at one Of the
windows were tracks of the thief the
marks where he had broken it open. and
the mud from his feet where he had clam.
bered in matches and a half smoked
cigar were left in the hall where he had
used them. On examination not single
article of value was missing. The plate
Of which there was 5000 worth, was pro.
baby tine object of the enterprise. and be.
ing defeated in that, by the wakefulness
of the lady, the thiefthought other things
unworthy Of his notice. before leaving
the premises, in wanton holiness, he
threw open the windows and doors of all
the lower apartments and gave them q
thorough airing.

~ We are requested to say in reply to
the remarks of our correspondent at Oak
land, Gibson county, in relation to the sale
of the lands by the Straight Line Railroad
that those lands were transferred by the
Railroad Company to the contractors in pay
ment of the construction of the Road, and
that the title is in the contractors. who took
them Of the Company ut cost. We were in
error, therefore, in stating they were sold by
order of the Directors. The road, as we UNI
derstand, had previously parted with all
right to and control Of them.

THE DEMOCRATIC PRESS.


Mr.. BUCHANAN has been tempted by
the same fattery Of false hopes that be-
guiled "poor Pierce" to his fall. 1t is
certain now that the President has yield
ed to the temptations Of the Nullifisrs-
who have lured him with the hopes Of o
second terln-and have persuaded him to
sustain the doings Of the slavery
Convention Of Kansas. The Northern
Democracy are deserving him in mass.
His party will be forced to repudiate
him, to preserve its ascendancy and
he will sink like Pierce, into a helpless in
strument in the hands Of the violent fac
ton of Nullifiers. who. after they have
used him, will contemn him and cast him
aside. The Democratic papers in this
State have assumed firm and manly
position. in which the State Sentinel
takes the lead. The following extracts
show the tenor of its articles:
at is said that the only question at issue,
that oil slavery is submitted 10 the pcOple
for their rejection or adoption. If they have
a right to vote OH that issue, they are equal
| ly entitled to vote upon the constitution u
u whole. IL may contain other unaccepta-
bic provisions. 1t may do violence TO tho
sentiment of the people upon the question Of
| banks-the manner of selecting judiciary
| and many other matters of general concern
| Ii the constitution WAS submitted to n VOTE
Of the people it might be rejected for some
unacceptable provision other than the issue
of slavery. 1t is not the province Of Con.
1 gress to form constitution for the people o
a territory-,o force upon them institution,
and n government in violence to their wishc,
| and will. VI is not even for convention
fairly elected by majority OF ths people u
say that their work shall not be reviewed
and passed upon by those who gave then
the duty to perform, much less q bod,
| whose presiding officer admits and tells then
they only represent small minority Of tin
people.
The great body of the Democracy Of tn,
North utterly repudiate and condemn thu
action of the Lecompton Convention. i
| cannot be approved without doing violence
to justice, to right and to the principles o
the party in power. 1t is not only unfair,
breach Of plighted faith, but unmanly to at
tempt even to force the constitution Of fac
ton upon a people to whom fair dealing ha
been pledged and a legal and fair express
ion of their will been guaranteed"
