Democracy Unadulterated.

The National Intclttgencer, Mt the
close of an article suggested by ares'
olution adopted by the Democracy of
Orleans county, New York, that they
would ignore the terms "Hunker,"
'Barnburner," &C., says:
But before dismissing this interest.
ing subject, VIC take leave to say that
our recollection of the political tradi.
tions of the country supplies US with
one example of devotion to sim pie
andunadulterated Democracy, Tin fact
as well as in name) which even sur
passes, we think, the laudable zeal dis
played by the faithful in Orleans. In
the days of President Jackson, and in
one of the hourishing towns of New
England large and enthusiastic meet
ing of the Democracy had assembled
to take action and define their posi-
ton upon the current politics of that
exciting era. Through some default
on the part of the individual expected
to furnish resolutions expressive of
the Sense of the meeting, and through
some default Of another nature which
made it difficult for the assemblage to
improyise series for themselves which
should be secunaent drtem, they deter.
mined to embody their confession of
faith in few words which should have
at least the merit of being ineligible.
Accordingly they resolved as follows ::
'Resolved, That the Democracy we're
raised up by Providence to govern the
country.
sRes0lved, That we are Democracy.

Gree1y Explains the Pleasures Of be-
ing Member of Congress.


The New York Tribune, a few days
ago reada lecture to political aspirants
in which the writer strongly depicts
the dogs life to which people subject
themselves by becoming members OF
Congress. According, to him life on
trakem mill is quite tolerablo compa.
red with that to which unhappy men
are sentenced by vote of the people.
Mr.. Greeley has "bcen there" and
knows whereof he affirms. lie says
eve cannot comprehend tho passion
for seat in Congress. What is it to
be an honorable member? We will
tell the reader what it is. 1t is to live in
mean hotels, and pay magnificent bills;
it is to be obliged to breathe bad air |;
to sit in an uncomfortable seat; to be
bored by long speeches; to be impor
tuned for pamphlets; to attend the bus,
mess of other people; ncglecting one s
own; to existin perpetual fuss of frank
ing; to watch your district more close.
~ than the kingdom Of Heaven; to miss
your nights rest, to be slandered, to
be bothered, to be importuned, to be
embarrassed, to make speeches listen
ed to by nobody, to frank till your arm
aches, and to miss the greatest growl-
er in your district.

Reform IN tho Crimsnat.--tord
Campbell is about to introduce into tho
British Parliament a bill dispensing
with the practice of requiring unani-
nous verdict from q jury. He does
not propose the majority principle, but
he wishes to get rid of the practice of
tampering with jury by placing ono
man upon it to hold out against all tho
others. He desires that If, after certain
deliberaticn by the Jury, they all agreed
except one or two, the verdict of those
who agreed should be considered az
good as the verdict of the whole twelve,
subject, however, to be reviewed, and,
if necessary, set side. This would tend
completely to break up the practice of
packing juries, or increase the risks, by
making it necessary to bride moro than
one of the jurors.
