Daily Line Of Packets.

1t appears from the following commune
cation of Capt. T. H. Briefly, of the Morn
ing Star, which appears in the St. Louis
Republican, that there will be next Febau-
airy, regular daily line Of packets between
St. Louis and St. Joseph, TO be composed of
fourteen boats. 1t is as follows:

St. Joseph, connecting with the first class
boats at St. Joseph, through to Bluff City
and Omaha. The number Of boats that will
be employed in this line is seventeen
fourteen TO ply daily between St. Louis and
st. Joseph. The boats leaving ST. Louis
will arrive at Jefferson City in advance of
the cars, and will remain until the Cars ar
rive. They will take passengers and
freight if any offers. 1t affords me pl, as
to say TO the public, both travelling and
shipping that this line will be a reliable
one. will feed well, sleep well, and carry

E%An Englishman speaking in favor of
his own country, said to DIR. Thompson:
You have no coal, and it is this that gives
England Its manufacturing importance. -
The doctor replied "We are not altogeth-
er destitute of coal; we have one small bed
called the coal field of Illinois, which is
larger than the whole of England. If you
wait till we scoop some of it out, and then
bring your Island over, we will drop it in
and annex you?" "Ah! but you have no
nobility" said John Bull. The doctor re-
piled: 1--WE are nation OF kings then,
with all the pompousness he could assume,
he made bow and said, you are now in
company of one of the royal family of the
U. S. OF America" !"

between those Of my schoolmates, who had

lawful for the President or sudh persons as
he shall empower, to employ the land and

Material for Making National Demo
crats

We have long known that good national
Democrat could be made out of most any
kind Of material. A full blooded, life long
Aboiitionist answers quite as well as any.
thing or anybody else. All he has to do; is
to call himself Democrat, and he is forth
with tnken by the hand, and baptized in the
new faith, and either given an office, or put
in the line Of promotion. The following
from the Lynchburg Virginian illustrates
the truth of our observation:
ITO judge from the loud professions of
devotion which the Democracy are con-
stantly making to the rights and interests of
the South, one would suppose that there
never was such pure end immaculate par
ty. The idea of having to do with Free.
soiler, in political sense, is one that their
Southern organs would reject with the ut
most vehemence.
THAT we may see how far such claim
is supported BY facts, let us adduce few
"modern instances" The Representative
just elected TO Congress, as Democrat
from Nebraska Territory, is an old Michi.
gan Freesoiler, who voted, while member
of the Michigan Legislature, to instrdc,
Gen. Cass TO support law excluding sla.
very from the Territories.
"The Democratic candidate for Congress.
in Kansas is Ex-Governor Ransom of Michi.
gan, who advocated the Wilmot Proyiso ir
his message, and opposed Gen. Cass for tn,
Senate because the latter was not sufficient,
Freesoilish in his notions.
1.-THE Consul recently appointed to As
pinwall by the President-C. J. Fox o
Michigan--was at one time editor Of
Freesoil paper in that State, and a LEADING
advocate Of the Wlmot Previso.
These are three instances only from on
State. The list might be indefinitely ex
tended. These old chronic Freesoilers ar,
now regular patent National" Democrats
and, as such, must be accepted to full fel
lowship by the people of the South. Is thi

pealed TO to surrender our opposition t

Amount of Specie in the Country.

1t becomes important at the present time
to ascertain how much specie thersis in the
country; in other words, the amount of that
currency which cannot be deprecated or
disturbed by any explosions. The specie
basis of the banks is known to be about
sixty millions, and the inquiry turns to the
amount in general circulation among the
people. On this point the "Philadelphia
North American" says:
"We have taken the pains, for our own
satisfaction, to look over the official figures
for a series of years, in order to approxi-
mate a safe opinion upon this subject, and
they develop some results of striking inter-
est at the present juncture, which ought TO
inspire feelings Of encouragement even in
the most desponding Notwithstanding the
enormo,ts depletion Of precious metals du-
ring the last seven years, it will Re seen
that the coinage in that period exceeded the
exports by an amount almost equal 10 the
whole coinage during the preceding fifty
eight years:

Treasury and robbed the Land Offices,
Custom Houses Of the Government, and
