PERlious SITUATION. While Mr. Gardner
Pope # South Hardwick, was digging sand from
high bank, on Tuesday of last week, near
Montpelier, the bank gave away and covered him
as he was standing erect, one foot above his
head. His situation was accidentally discovered
after he had been some time in this i'osltion, by
two young men, who dug him out of the sand.
When taken out he was cold and unconscious,
but is now well, with the exception OF being quite
sore and lame

SABBATH MORNING.

Hark, from afar, the sound Of Sabbath bells
In solemn music pealng through the air
Again the day Of rest these notes declare,
And as their harmony uprising swells,
voice from universal nature tells
How sweetly In the anthem she doth share.
Soft breezes whisper to the heavens fair,
peaceful murmur by the seaside dwells,
The melody of birds, tho bum Of bees,
The dew-drop falling from the buds Of spr.pg,
Each rustling leaf upon the forest trees,
Join in the strain. Now myriad angels sing,
Prepare, ye mortals, all your jubilees,
And swell hosannas 70 the Eternsl King"

Bas- Democracy claims to be national
in the face of the fact, that Buchanan got
majority of votes in only one northern
State-and thata majority of one thousand
in his own state, where about SO 900, 900
were expended in the purchase of votes.-
And had it not been for the American
party, Fremont would have been elected
in spite of the so-called national demo-
cracy, with all its boosted strength. The
President of this national party-were it
indeed acknowledgement to have been cleo
ted by large majority; but, so far from
it, he lacked 100000 votes of bare ma
jority. And where did he meet his strong
est opposition? Why, in those States of
the North, heretofore most strongly demo-
cratic. Democracy and freesoilism are
one and the same thing, under two diff
ferent names. To prove il, Pierce-the
smallest potatoe his party has yet dug up
got a majority Of %, 600 of the popular
votes; and four years after, Buchanan
falls 400, 1000 short of majority-the
balance having gone over to Fremont and
without change Of principles. a5f

AMERIc AN TICKET.

gsS- The northern papers are chfonicl-
ing startling number of divorces, and
giving, generally most disgusting picture
of the immortality Of population that
presumes to teach the South a great lesson
of humanity and benevolence Take one
hundred miles square'of the cotton region,
including black and white, and there is
not, within that space, as much vice and
crime, in one year, as is perpctroted in the
city of New York in twenty four hours.
Yet it is among such population that are
found the cauting hypocrites, political
knaves and pious negro-stealers who take
under their especial care the morals of the
South, and threaten disunion, to- sever
themselves from tn crime of slavery. Had
they not better improve the condition of
their own white slaves, and purge them
selves of the countless vices which blacken
their character, before they presume to
turn reformers Of southern institutions?

Political NEws.-The most important
and striking political news of the day, is
the nomination of Major GUsTAvus A.
HENRY, of GAINESVILLE, for Congress in the
Nashville District. This result, we pre-
sumo, was reached as a compromise between
Messrs. ZoLLIcoFFER, QUARLEs and Nc
EVEN, who were understood to be rival can
didates for the nomination. Maj HENRY's
name had not, to our knowledge, been pre-
viously mentioned in connection with the
nomination. He is one of the best, purest,
and ablest men in the nation, and we
should be pleased to see him elevated to a
much higher position than the one for
which Ire has been nominated. Should he
accept the nomination for Congress, he
will beat his competitor, Hon. ANDREW
EWING easily.
The nomination Of Gen. I. G.. HARRIS
of this city, for Governor was a matter Of
course. He will be easily beaten if the
opposition party play their cards judicious-
ly. Gen. H., is not near so strong man
as he has been represented TO be. Though
a clever gentleman, his talents arc by no
means extraordinary, and during the can
vass he will have but one speech which he
will repeat by rote. WM. L. HASKELL
will, SHOULD he be his opponcnt,) "smash
him III" upon every stump and boz him at
least three thousand votes at tbs polls
And there are others, too, 10 the American
party besides Haskell, who can do the same
thing,-EagIe d Enquirer.

Bay" Bishop Hughes organ is down on
Chief Justice Fancy, for his opinion in
the bred Scott case, and charges that he
is not good catholic, or he would not
have run counter to the decree of that
church, made some four hundred years
ago, that no son Of Africa shall be held in
bondage. This is frank admission that
every true catholic must be freesoiler;
yet the South opens its arms to receive
every catholic whom Europe may disgorge
upon our shores.

90 In relation to Utah affairs, the
locofoco press strives to shield Pierce and
Buchanan from censure by dwelling upon
the fact, that Brigham Young was appoin
ted Governor by Mr.. Fillmore; and thence
infer that the democratic party is not re-
sponsible for his misdeeds This is a
foolish position, and false issue. True,
Mr.. Fillmore did appoint him, believing the
appointment good one; but 10 turned out
to be the reverse. But when Young prov
ed himself to a law-b breaking, lecherous
scoundrel, it became the duty of Pierce to
remove him, nomatter who appointed him;
and when he did attempt to remove him,
and was defied and bullied by that noun
tain goat, Pierce proved himself weak as
we'll as criminal, in falling to wrest his
commission from him; and now Buchanan
stands in the same attitude before the pub
lie, and will merit its deepest contempt if
he do not reduce the lawloss bigamist to
subsection to the laws, and punish him as
wilfui destroyer of the federal records.
B9- The Fremonters in the North, are
exulting, inordinately ovcr.the emancipa-
ton movement of the Buchanan democrats
of st. Louis, and claim that Missouri will
be free State in five years. 1t is true,
the great bulk of the emancipationists are
foreigners; but this only proves them to
be the better democrats, and their hostility
to slavery seems to increase the attach
ment Of the South for them.

Bds We publish, in another place, ex-
tracts from a speech delivered by Joha G..
Calhoun, in Che Senate more than twenty
years ago, ana invite the attention our
democratic friends to them. They fully
sustain the positions VIC have SO ofen de-
fcnded, that the States ha-s no power 10
transmute aliens into citizens, and that
lconiering the rightof suffrage upon aliens
in the territories, is palpable violation Of
the Constitution. Did not party zeal
prompt men to overlap constitutional
bounds, and to hazard the most important
rights and principles for party's sake,
propositions so plain and self.evident, as
the foregoing, would need no defense.-
But that reckless radicalsm which Under
lies the whole structure Of modern demo-
cracy, recognizes no conservative barriers
reared by the Constitution, patriotism, Or
justice; and when success demands it.,
every virtue that should characterize free
men is tramplcd under foot, and demo-
cracy and vice are triumphant.
The virtue and intelligence of majority
of native Americans maintained the gov
eminent in its purity, until democracy es-
tablished the doctrine, that ''to the victors
belong the spoils.' Then commenced the
scramble for Office, and under the damn
ing influence Of that doctrine, public
virtue rapidly gave way before the inroads
of corruption, and then democracy first
openly allied itself with the foreign in
fuence, in order to crush the majority of
the natives who still adhered to principle
and nobly defended the Constitution and
their country. TWAS at the first Inaugural
ton of the era of foreign rule, that Mr..
Calhoun took his stand against alien suf-
frage, and warned his country against the
dangers of the foreign element so rapidly
engrafting itself upon the american stock,
That warning has NOT been needed; on the
contrary, things have progressed, from
bad to worse, until now, the par. !, of which
he was the acknowledged leader, in the
South, openly take the ground that aliens
are entitled to all the rights of citizenship,
and that foreigners are better qualified to
rule this country, than those who have
been born and reared upon its soil. Both
Houses of democratic Congress have
twice affirmed this anti-Amcrican and
humiliating doctrine, and two democratic
Presidents have given it their hearty sane
ton
