The Rival Houses at tWashington-The Pres
ident and Mrs. Douglas.

A writer in tho Press Of this city travelled
so far out of his way as TO indite the follow
ing:
Mrs. Douglas has opened at the eastern
end of the city "a White House." which is
constantly visited by thousands, representa-
tives OF the fashion, beauty and intelligence
of our country, and by all the distinguished
foreigners who visit our great republic. Can
il be possible that this fair lady. so versed in
all the eleCancies of refined society, has never
yet been invited to participate IN the refine
mcnts OF the other W hite House, at the vest
ern end of the avenue y
1t has never been our practice 70 drag Ia
dies-and above all senator's wNes-into
public, but the gentleman Of the Press, whose
departure from that well established usage
has become rather uucayiably notorious, obi
ges us, by his indirect structure on the Presi-
dents gailantry, 10 say word in reply.
Presdent Buchanan has eyiucei bis high
appreciation Of Mas. Douglas beauty and ac-
cOmplishments in y most substantial manner
by conferring on her father, Mr.. Cults, here
toiore, subordinate clerk in one Of the depart
ments in Washington, the important Office OF
second comptroller of the treasury, with a sal
AIRY Of $4,000 year, for which muni6oent
gift, on the part OF the President, neither Mr..
Cutt. nor Judge Douglas, have as yet made
any adequate acknowledgement. Mr.. Bucha-
nan occupies the White House, placed at his
disposal by the people Of the United States,
and has nothing to do with the rival estab-
Hshment set up by Mrs. Douglas. The peo-
PIES white house is at all times open to every
citizen Of the United States, and whoever has
witnessed Mr.. Buchanan's patient self sscri-
ice 70 tho thousands of ladies who wish 10
see him and shake him by the hand, will not
accuse him of Intentional neglect towards
lady Of sueh marked beauty and accomplish
lncnts as Mrs. Douglas.
Mrs. Douglas, unfortunately for the Presi-
dent fixed her receptions and naihsees dan
s,,a'es on the same mornings selected by Mas
Lane for her receptions, and 50 II may have
happened that IN the contest between tie ri
val white houses, Mr. Buchanan NAV not have
been found among the votarics Of beauty and
fashion at the eastern end Of the city. Mr..
Buchanan could hardly be expected TO lead
the beautiful Mrs. Douglas TO n cotiilon, whlo
her husband WAS determined 10 dance a Jig
with him. fortunately for all the parties
concerned, aud the whole county Gtsiles,

Tho Fort Smith Eerald.

We published last week some structures on
the course Of the Herald, in relation to the
overland mail route to California. Bat we
find by the last issue Of that paper we were
mistaken in the views Of the Herald in rela-
ton to the 35th parallel, and we take back
all we said about our cotempoFares in relation
to the matter, and acknowledge that we were
perhaps little too hasty in our remarks.-
We know the difficulty in editing paper TO
please every body, or indeed, always to APP
pear consistent, as the editorials are frequent
ly gotten up in haste and without due rctlec-
ton, as to the effect Of the language used to
express the indea intended, and thus editors
are often construed to advocate q peculiar
measure, when in fact they intend the reverse.
Thus we suppose was the case with our neigh
bcrs Of the Herald, when they peuned the al
ticle to which VIC referred. And we are sor-
ry said anything about it. But the course
of the Herald has been so uniformly consist
ent, and apparently sincere in the measures
it advocated, that we were taken by surprise,
in the apparent sudden change, and hastily
and perhaps Improperly made some remarks
in relation to it, which We much regret, and
hope our neighbors will excuse us. aud that
nothing may ever arise to mar the good feel
Ing that has heretofore existed between us.

The Death PenGlty.-We notice that sew
eral Of the States which have abolished the
death penalty will return TO its use. "Blood
for blood seems to be the rational interpre-
tation of stern justice, and the public safety
would seem to demand adherence to it now as
in the olden time. Among the bills passed
by the Legislature of Massachusetts, is one ma
king two divisions in the crime of murder:
the first of which, where tits premeditated or
life taken while in the commission of a felony.
is made punishable with death; the second
degree is punished by imprisonment for life.
The death penalty is getting TO be pretty
abrogated with US. There is a growing dis
position on tho part of sympathizing juries to
look with tender mercy on criminals, howev-
er heinous their oienses, particularly so, if
they come under the denomination of what
is called respectable, have money, and influ-
ential connections.
