In Charleston, Missouri, is printed a
spirited little paper, called the Courier.
Its editor is not only a wit, but also q
close observer, as will be seen by the fol-

"Seuator Bigler is making speeches in
Pennsylvania. He is very poor speak
er. 1t is said that all public speakers,
when in want of sn idea, instinetively
scratch the locality of the brain. Bigler,
upon such occasions, never scratches his

fearful blow; and for the time being

speeches, that would do dreadful cx-
ccution unless their force were par

copious tears over such as he affects
to believe were wronged in the Con-

Any one nnacquainted with The
facts, would undoubtedly judge from
that "uproarious" article, that there
was II hemendous outpouring of the
Republicans On that occasion; and
that tho editor found his party in II
strait from which it required most
dreadful effort to extricate them.--

Our Democratic opponents ere no
little disappointed in regard 20 the
demonstration made at Columbus,
BY the Republicans, on Tuesday lsst.
They expected 4 small attendance
and great want Of harmony; bu,
instead, there was an unusually full
attendance, and not a jarring note tc
interrupt the proceedings. Neve,
did as many men meet together that
were 80 well agreed. The repeated
slavery outrsges, rendered the more
abhorrent by tue recent act of Con.
gress in regard to Kansas. have very
much intensified the feeling Of oppo.
sition to slavery aggression, and
tend to unite more firmly the oppo.
nents Of slavery, and give them the
greater zeal in the conflict in pros.
pec,. The Democracy may about
as well set about to reconcile them
selves to most disastrous defca,

The weather was then hasy, with

seen were probably the telegraph

Acts Of the Late Legislature.

The lungling, injudicious. and
unconstitutional acts of the late
Democratic Legislature, arc really 4
disgrace to the state. The mem.
bers OF that Legislature cannot dc
the state more valuable service
than to devote their time next win,
ter in undoing what they did last
winter. The more candid Of the
Democratic party are ready to admit
that the money spent in the suplort
of the last Legislature was worse
than thrown away. The Democrat.
ic members seemed TO think il the
business OF the Legislature to 60
shape the legislation of the state as
to promote most effectualIy partizan
interest. Hence great portion OF
time was spent in scheming as to
how they might wrest the public
patronage from the Republicans and
transfer i to their own party.
