The Chicago Daily Times, the editor of
which, Mr.. Shehanan. has announced his in
tention of publishing, in book form, at an
early day, the Life of Hon. Stephen A. Doug
las, may be fairly considered the Western or
Home organ of that distinguished statesman.
This being the case, we may fairly look to
that source for a semi-oflicial announcement
of the Illinois Senator's opinions upon lead
ing questions, which, perhaps, he would rath-
er not proclaim directly over his own sigma
ture. In the Times of November 24th, we
find an editorial reply to some strictnres of
the Chicago Press and II T1ibune, regarding the
future course of Mr.. Douglas. After enumer-
ating various subjects upon which Mr.. Doug
las may be called to vote upon during the next
session of Congress, the Tribune names, a.
mong other things, proposition favoring a
protective tariff, to which that journal replies,
speaking, we doubt not, for Mr.. Douglas, and
says-ssNo DEMOCRAT FROM ANY STATE WILL
EVER VOTE FOR PRorECTIvE TARIFF. Thus,
Is a GREAT sTRoUBIR' DISPOSED or If this
be taken Douglas doctrine, it differs very
widely from Col. Forney-smacks also of old
repudated democracy, and must kill the
'sLittle Giant in Pennsylvania and other
tariff States.

Hon. JOHN j. CRrrTENDEN, OF Kentucky, was
on the 1st inst, waited upon in New York city
by delegation from the Whig Central Com
mittee, and presented with addresses from that
body and thea eAshlandAssociation. Mr.Critten-
den made in reply an eloquent address, decln-
ing their request that he would permit him self
to be placed at the head OF national party
movement, declaring that he was not a candi-
date for the Presidency that he intended
hereafter to act not in obedience to any party
requirements but in accordance with his own
convictions of the public good. He paid high
compliments to the spirit of the old Whig
party, lamented the political degeneracy of
the day, and trusted the country might yet
witness a return of the tone and temper of the
olden time. In the course of his remarks he
eulogized the character of Henry Clay, and
reviewed the course of the Administration.

CONSCIENCE MAKES CowaRDs OF Us ALL
On Friday last week middle aged and APP
parently hard working man, who gave his name
as Peter Martin. appeard at the police office
in St. Louis, and stated that he committed a
murder, and wished to be taken into custody.
The st. Louis Herald says: He states that
about six weeks ago he lett Cincinnati for St.
Louis. At Cairo he took passage a New
Orleans boat bound upward, and in due time
arrived in this city. The day before his ar
rival here, while on drunk with another
deck passenger, whose name he does not re-
member, he was robbed by him of all he pos
sessed. He endeavored, he alleges. for
twenty-four hours to induce the man to re-
turn him his money, but finding all efforts to
accomplish that end unsuccessful, he deter
mined shortly after the arrival of the boat at
St. Louis wharf TO revenge himself upon him
Borrowing sheath knife from another passen-
ger, he waited upon the starboard guard of the
boat till his victim went to pass him, when he
stabbed him to the heart. AS he fell he push
ed him overheard. and instantly threw the
knife after him, and left the boat. Since that
time, he states, he has been wandering in va
rious parts Of Illinois, between Cairo and this
city, unable tC work, unable to sleep, haunted
constantly by the image Of the murdered man.
Unable longer TO endui it, he determined
upon delivering himself up to justice, and
accordingly presented himself at the police
office, as above stated. He was sent TO the
caiaDOOSe.

ed it, and that the tariff of 1857 had nothing
to do with it.
But these revulsions must continue to return
at intervals, so long as the present unbOunded
system of bank credits prevail; still he re-
rupt law, applicable to banking institutions.
The effects of the fevulsion are passing away,
and confidence is gradually reviving.
In relation to tariff he says, it is his de-
liberate judgment that specific duties are the
best, if not the only means of securing the
revenue against false and fraudulent invoices.
Besides specific duties would afford the Amer.
ican manufacturer the incidental advantage to
which he is entitled. Under a revenue Tariff
the rapid accumulation of the public debt
should adnonish all to rigid economy, and he
invites Congress to institute a rigid scrutiny.
He recommends the addition of several
steam sloops to the Navy.
Time and reflection have confirmed him in
the justice of his observations in regard to a
Pacific Railway communicated in his last mes
sage. The construction of the road ought to
be committed to companies Incorporated by
the States or other agencies where pecuniary
interests would be directly involved.
Congress might assist them in the work by
grants of land, or of money, or of both, under
tion of troops and munitions of war, free OF
charge, and the mail at reasonable rates.
He recommends amendment of the law
in relation to the capture of slavers, SO that
the duty of the President shall be clear, and
before closing he recommends the District OF
Columbia to the attention of Congress.

MORE GoLD.-The st. Joseph Daily Gazette
says the late discovery of gold on the waters
OF the South Platte has induced examina-
tion of that wide region of country, of which,
hitherto but little was known. 1t has reveal
ed the fact that upon the waters of the South
Platte and in the regions of the immense parks
of that section, there is an extent of territory
OF great fertility, abonnding in all the resour-
ces of an agricultural country, with a most
hospitable climate, sufficient for the reception
OF population requisite for great and -four
iShing State. Already the tide of emigration
IN that direction has amounted to thousands.
