A PLrcKY SENAToR.-Thc Hon.
William Chappell, member of the
Wisconsin Senate, received $4,000
of the La Crosse and Milwaukee
Railroad bribe two years ago, and
Was aetiye'in corrupting his legisla,
tive associates. The Senate at Its re-
cent session, voted, q to 5, that be
was guilty, and Is to 8 that be was
unworthy of a seat in the body. He,
however, retained his seat. A mass
meeting at Watertown, where
be resides, held without distinction of
party, unanimously requested him to
resign. He refused. The Common
Council Of that city, a majority being
his political friends, made a similar
request by a vote of Z to 5. But
Mr. G. would not comply. As this
plucky Senator will be remembered
in history, it is proper to state that
he emerged from New York, and
WAS for many years a citizen of Ro-
chester 511i,

The responsibility and expense Of
maintaining q Territorial Government
in New Mexico, is greater than. the
estimatedvalue Of the whole Perrito-
ry The yearly cost Ct the necessary
military force alone is nearly equal
to half the value of the whole real es-
tate Of the Territory. Mr.. Secretary
Floyd evidently thinks the Territori-
al Government nuisance, and rec
ommends its abatement.

A KpNrrrcrr SrocK FARMER.-


E A KENTUCKY STocK FARMER.-Mr.
Alexander, Of Woodford county,
KY, is the most extensive stock
farmer in the United ,States-we do
not mean in numbers, but in the
value of the stock. A Kentucky
correspondent writes to the New
York Tribune:
"Two horses aione.s cost Mr. AL
exandsr $22,500; these and the
other thorough breds are worth
$4,000; the trotting stock cost
S15, 900, and the, bleoded cattle are
worth $l50,00O."

The Richmond Examiner, a paper
Tor IFS CONSERVATIVES fen.

The Richmond Examiner, q paper
remarkable FOR its conservative ten
.deneies, takes the following view
of the revolution Of public feeling
now going on in the South.
We will not say that The entire
South is now ready for the extreme
measures proposed by some of the
Southern States. We know it is
not. But we say, again, that arev-
olution is going on 10 The minds of
the southern masses of which the
northern people have no conception.
And we do not hesitate to avow the
opinion that if fanaticismis as pro-
gressive in the future as it has been
in the last dozen years. it will not be
long before every slayeholding State
South Of Maryland, will assert and
carry into effect the doctrine laid
down in the following passage
ia another declaration of indepen-
dence, to which they were PARTIES
(slightIy altered to suit the CASEY
"When a long train of abuses and
usurpations, pursuing invariably the
same object evinces design to re.
duce US under an absolute despotism,
it is our right, it is our duty. to
throw off such government and pro-
vide new guards for our future Sc
|curity. Such has been the patient
sufferance OF the States, and such is
now the necessity which constrains
them to alter their former system of
government" s. -
A revolution in public sentiment,
like the one Of which we here speak,
is not likely to 60 backward; and if
it shall appear that the Black Re
publican policy in regard to the ad-
mission Of new States is to be adopt
ed by Congress, it will not be many
years before it will have TO be written,
..tbe Union was.'' The Southern
people will look with anxiety totbe
development Of Northern sentiment
on the subject Of slavery agitation.
Ifthey find Mr.. Buchanan and his
conservative friends In Congress sus-
tanned at home, they will have a
new assurance that they Can contin-
lue in the Union without degradation.
II, on the other band, the Northern
conservatives be displaced by Black
Republican fanatics, and MIR. Buchan-
ans administration thus rendered
powefless for the protection OF cur
rights, then we confidently expect to
see the dfsunion sentiment etery-
where prevalent among the masses
Of the South. This we say to the
Northern people, not in the spirit OF
a threat, but as warning to such
of them as desire the continuance oil
the Union. =

How CANE IT THERE From the

The Swan 4 Co., SRiindIe.

This grand scheme Of open swim
ding has at last been headed in its
onward career, and its principal oper-
Fators are about to meet their just
deserts. We have no doubt that a
more high-handed piece of villainy
was never practiced Oh credulous
and confding people. Like all such
Iiuiquitoua schemes to extort from
the unsuspecting, their very. .founda.
ton stone is rotten to the core. All
attempts to impose upon the public
should meet with that punishment it
richly deserves. The whole posse
Of the M, under name of gift enter.
prises, etc., are nothing but base i'm
positions to gull the simple mind,
and should be frowned down by all
the lovers Of right. Our city papers
here and elsewhere are guilty of
aiding 10 this stupendous fraud, by
advertising for them, and thereby
seeming to indorse, them, given Of
ten too favorable notices to encour-
age their readers to spend their hard
earnings for naught, by purchasing
their worthless tickets. This is ali
wrong-radicalIy wrong! No paper
should, if they regard the interest
OF their patrons, publish anything
they cannot fully endorse, either
for love or for money. Those gull
ty OF the Abandonment of this true
principle are unworthy of the seat they
occupy, which they should be made
to vacate by an outraged and abused
people, whose confidence has baen

The Kansas Weekly Herald of
May s, says-in speaking of the
passage OF the English compromise
bill: - .s
The question is now Localized, and
the people of Kansas are the only
parties concerned. Whether the
proposition is accepted or rejected,
the. question is at an end. Whatey-
crthe issue may be here in Kansas,
its effects will only be felt here.-
The excitement which has too long
agitated the whole country, must
now necessarily die away, for the
material by which it was manufactur-
ed is at length exhausted.
