rnE INCOMING ADMNrsrnArIoN.

The new democratic Administration takes
up its march for Washington with all the
silence and gloom Of q funeral procession
Or, to lay aside figures and speak literally,
it marches to tho possession Of power with
about as much exultation as criminal feels
on his way to execution. Tho 100000
votes cast for Fremont in the Free States,
hang like mill stone about its neck. If
follows in the footsteps of Pierce, as it is
pledged to do, il feels we'll grounded as
surance that another million will be added
to the Republican vote, and that the weight
Of public scorn will sink it deeper than
pumnet ever sounded. If it docs not fol-
low in Pierce's wake, then it must expect
war to tho knife, and the knife to the han
die, from its southern allies. 1t must then
look for support to the Republicans or
perish niserably like the ass between two
bundles of hay. Never was poor mortal in
such 1uandery as poor old Mr.. Buchanan
now is. He will soon be in as bad a fix as
an outFageously wicked acquaintance Of ours,
who declared that in his troubles he had
tried praying, swearing and crying and
found them all equally proftlcss. If he
gives fair play TO the free settlers in Kan
sas, the southern fire-eaters, Brooks, Toombs,
Stephens and that ilk, will be ready to tear
him in pieces. If he docs not give freedom
fair field, northern supporters will tell him
that they already feel structure about their
political windpipes, premonitory Of certain
death. To add to the Affections of the new
administration, the whole round of offices is
already filled with democrats anxious to stay
in, and there are on an average thirteen
new applicants for every office. The Gins"
declare that they have lied their utmost dur
ing the campaign about the democracy be-
ing all for liberty, and the "outs" swear by
all that politician believes in, that they
have lied ten times harder than the "ins.'
Among such host Of deserving patriots
what can Mr.. Buchanan do! For our part
we assure him he has our prayers, such as
they are, that he may have happy deliv-
erance out of all his troubles. We feel del
icate about offering him our advice, but if
We could overcome our modcsty, we should
advise him, since he cannot pray "good
Lord, good devil" any longer, to make his
choice whom he will serve, and then go his
length. If he will come over to the Lords
side, We assure him that those who come at
the eleventh hour shall also receive penny.

No BIBLE AT THE CAPITOL OF M1ssoU

No BIBLE AT THE CAPITOL OF Missouri.
The 81. Louis Democrat of Monday
contains the following. The state of affairs
at the Capitol ofMissouri seems to be sing
ular and extraordinary as it is deplorable:
"The city papers would probably have
published Governor Folks inaugural address
yesterday morning, but for the delays of
ceremonies, the cause of which we have no
hesitation in making known to our readers
and offer it as one Of the strongest reasons
in the world why tho scat of Government
should be changed at once to st. Louis.
"The cause reported is, that the inaugur-
al ceremonies were delayed at least half an
hour in hunting up copy ofthe Holy Bible,
upon which to administer the gubernatorial
oath. 1t is further added that, after an un-
successful search for some minutes, il was
thought by many that tho inaugural would
have to be postponed until copy of the
book could be obtained from St. Louis, but
this proposal met with the most determined
and malignant opposition from Gov. Price.
Happily, at this critical juncture, a Bible
was handed in from the penitentiary, and
tho oath was then duly administered"

Another EXPOSING.


We clip the following from one of our
exchanges, and will only refer to it as one of
the "reminiscences Of the late campaign:-
Harrisburg Telegraph.
PENNSYLVANIA PoLITIos-QUEER REEVE
LArIoEs.-Hon. Kenneth Raynor has been
making a speech at Raleigh, N. O., in de-
fence Of his political course during the late
Presidential canvass, especially in regard TO
the charge brought against him of having
sought to aid in the election of Fremont.
He acknowledged that he was desirous Of
adopting any measure that would defeat
Buchanan, but denied that he had any SYM
pathy for Fremont. After explaining his
own course of action, he paid special atten-
tion TO the Democrats and straight Fillmore
men of Philadelphia, and said that "a gen
tleman Of bis acquaintance was approached
by an emissary from Forney, who told him
il he would exert himself not for the Dem
ocratic party, but for the straight Fillmore
tickei, 100000 iOouid be placed TO hi
credit in any bank he might select" Thii
Fillmore ticket, he added, was the one sup
ported by Mr.. Sandcrson, "who,' said Mr.
r., '.it is well known, had not heard the jim
gIe Of dollar for many month, yet sine
the election he had been able TO purchase

Tho ncpub,lcan Convention.

Tho Republican State Central Committe,
the Republican members of the Legislature,
and other influential members Of the party,
met in Columbus on last "Wednesday eve
ming, 10 consult on affairs of interest to their
organization.
The matter of holding the State Conven-
ton to nominate candidates, was considered
at some length. 1t having been ascertain
ed that the 18th Of July came this year on
Monday, il was deemed inexpedient to hold
it on that day. Most Of the speakers were
in favor of having short and vigorous
campaign, aud therefore advocated holding
tho Convention about tho first Of August,
and this day was finally agreed upon as the
day on which the State Convention shall
be held.
The Republicans are in fine spirits, buoy
ant, confident and ready TO take the ficld
whenever their ticket shall bc placed il
nomination, and carry the banner forwart
to victory.

The Hartford Cotrant says; @The Ticket
nominated at New Haven onlIhc sth Of
January has been thoroughly capgassed
throughout tho State, before this time and
tho universal opinion is that i is bound to
be elected. 1t has all the elements ofsuc-
cess about it il was nominated in the right
way; it is made up of the right men; it
stands on the right platform; il hoists the
right flag; and is bound to walk right into
power, in spite ofall the rotten demagogucs
Of the old worm. eaten sham-dcmocracy can
do or say, preach or print against it. Tho
country made this ticket, and they will
make it their business to elect it. The
nominees are distributed judiciously, among
the old parties and in different sections ofthe
State.

rrlbuso from greeley.

Speaking Of the election Of Simon Cam
cron TO the U. s. Senate, from Pennsylva-
mia, by the Republicans, tho Tribune pays
the following tribute to John w. Forney,
the candidate Of pro-slavery Democracy.--
There is a manlincss in il which is rarely
found in IN organ of so strong opposing
sentiments. The Tribune says;
While we rejoice in this result, we cannot
Join in the personal cry against bis princi-
pal competitor, Col. Forney. Forney COM
mittcd some grave errors in early life; but
he is still young man,and we trust, though
defeated now, he has an honorable career
yet before him. He is most thorough
going partisan Of Pro-Slavery Democracy,
and for twenty years has devoted all his
energies to the elevation Of Mr.. Buchanan
TO the Presidency--a result which he has
done more than any other man TO achieve.
He fought us with desperate efficiency
through the late canvass, and we think not
always fairly; but since wc did what we
honestly could, and he has enjoyed de-
feat wo will consider the account squared
and start afresh. 1t gives us pleas
ure at this time to remember and attest that
through the long and trying contest for
Speaker Of the present House Forney pres-
ded over tho discrganized, anarchial, often
tumultuous assen.blage, with eminent digni-
ty, ability, and strict impartality. His po-
sition for eight weeks was one of tho most
trying wo ever oberved, and he met its re-
