MAIL RoBBERY.--Mr. Samuel Y.
Pace, Deputy Postmaster of Purdy,
West Tenn, and the son of the Post
master, was arrested last week for
robbing the mail, and is now in Jail
at Purdy. The evidence adduced
seems to be pretty conclusive Of his
guilt. Mr.. Pace is quite young
man, and was raised in McNairy
county. 1t seems he had become
dissipated, ard TO this fact does the
Argus attribute bis crimes.
A fifty dollar bill found in bis pos
session, which he stated be had won
at faro bank, was recognized by MIR.
Leroy M. Higgins, a merchant Of
McNairy county, as one which he had
placed in registered letter sent to
New Orleans. The letter was re-
ceived by the person to whom it was
addressed, but no money found en-
closed. Mr.. PAGES family is very
respectable one, and they have the
sympathies of the community in
their affliction.

CEN. HARVEY.

The Government could not have
made better selection for the COM
mand of the army destined for Utah
than Gen Harvey. He is exactly
the sort Of missionary TO convert that
benighted people. His whole life
has been spent in laboring With the
saysges. No man even made more
profound impression upon the heath
en- tribes of North America. The
moment that Harvey is sent among
Indians they become convinced of
their innumerable rascalities, and
hasten to reform their manners.
The character of the man is thorough
ly understood by the Indians, who
are among the keenest and most saga
cious observers Of character. He
has reputation among them Of being
quite as fierce and restless as the most
Harlike and implacable of their own
braves; man without the slightest
soft sentimentality, or false pity; and
who, in the exercise of his duty.
would cheerfully annihilate the whole
Indian race, and think the country
and civilization much improved by
the operation.
The Mormons need only give Gen.
Harvey one good reason for drawing
the sword. and the manner in which
be will extirrate that horrible tumour
upon the fame of American society.
will excite the admiration of the world
We are much mistaken in his charac-
ter if he leaves one stone Of this
modern Sodom upon another. Our
only fear is that Brigham Young will
back down as the Avenger ap-

Baty Of OId-L line Whiss.


The Louisville Courier, thus ably
defines the duty Of old-line wings in
the pending State elections. We
commend its perusal to every one in
our own State. as the position which
be takes is correct, just, ineontrover-
tsble:
Now the question is, having aided
in the election of Mr.. Buchanan to
the Presidency, win the wings
give his administration a fair trial, by
placing men in Congress, who will
render it fair and faithful support?
This is really the practical question
to be decided next August. To do
otherwise. would be to stultify them
selves. For wings to elect Presi-
dent and then refuse him the co-ope-
ration necessary to successful adj
ministsation, would be very un-whig-
like. To send Representatives to
Congress, pledged against the Presi-
dent, would not only be unbecoming
wings, but factious and unpatriotic.-
II is . logical necessity resulting from
their cooperation in electing Presi-
dent that the wings cooperate in CIV
ing him fair and just support by
sending his friends to Congress. For
it is utterly repugnant TO whigism to
put down an administration fright or
wrong" as the opposition threaten
with regard to Mr.. Buchanan.
So far, beyoud all cavil, Mr. Buch-
anan has behaved web in his great
office. In his inaugural, while there
is not one sentiment repagnant to
whig doctrines, there is much to com
mend him especially to the confidence
of wings. What could be more nobly
whig-like than his manly declaration
of purpose to yield his acquiescence
in the decision ofthe Supreme Court.
whatever it might be? In that sin
gle declaration, he illustrated the
whole philosophy, spirit aud practice
of whigism, and especially in the lofty
form of Kentucky Whigism. His
svowed policy respecting The national
domain ought to endear him to all
wings, and especially Kentucky wings,
His fidelity to the policy of Washing
ton in the conduct of foreign affairs
entities him to the veneration of ev-
cry boad citizen. His great ability,
his long experience ripened in diver
sifed service, his spotless moral char
acter, his purpose to retire to private
life at the end of bis present term
these and other considerations estab-
lish his title to the confidence and
support of not only the patriotic and
distinguished Wings, bat to all classes
of citizens.
We take it for granted, that the
wings of Kentucky viii not be Sc
duced by artfal appeals and lend them
selves to the cause Of a merely factious
opposition. They will round out aud
consummate the triumph they aided
in achieving last November, by aid
ing in the achievements of co-opera-
tive, sustaining, logical and necessary
sequel to that triumph next August
