Gy- The bill abolishing the Fishing
Bounties, that for many years have been
paid the New England fishermen, has
passed the U. S. Senate. When the Re-
publicans found that the bill must pass,
they moved to incorporate therein provi-
sions for the abolition Of the duties on SUI
gar and salt, but the democrats refused
to acquiesce. These fisheries have al
ways been considered school, in which
sailors were trained for the national feet,
and which it was the interest of the gov
eminent to foster. There is, then, sort
of qaid pro gao rendered the govern
ment and the people, for these bounties,
which is not the case with the protection
granted the sugar interest. Every dol
lar of protection rendered the planters is
so much drawn directly from the pockets
of the people, and yet, because the latter
is slave interest, it must be fostered by
the national government, while the other,
though benefit, must be sacrificed. The
retrenchment rendered necessary by a
blind, ignorant, foolish administration OF
the government. must be made upon the
free states; and no matter how onerous
the tax, if it tends to uphold and sustain
the oligarchy and their interests, it must
be held inviolate This is Democratic
administration of the government. How
long will the people of the North submit
to it?

EE- A most disastrous hurricane pass

Eg- A most disastrous hurricane pass
ed over central Illinois, on Thursday, the
18Th inst, blowing railroad cars off the
track, tearing steamboats, to pieces, un-
roofing houses, destroying barns, fences,
trees and crops. and killing and wound
ing several persons. AT Galesburg two
churches were blown down and a number
of dwellings unroofed. At Lexington,
nearly every house In the village was un-
rooted or blown down. At Oquawka,
two steam mills were ruined, and other
damage, to the extent of 10000, was
done. At Galva, Mendoza and Peoria
great damage was done. At the latter
place every church spire was blown
down, three canal boats, laden with lum
Der, sunk, and the steamer Olin, with
22 passengers on board, made a complete
wreck, her cabin being entirely blown
away, killing one child. While the gale
was raging, the rain and hail poured down
in perfect sheets, the hailstones being SO
large that they demolished almost every
pane Of glass in the region.
